While as at present its extensive' wharfage accommodation is being taxed to its utmost capacity by a large fleet of vessels from most of the other ports, not one ot which in the colony possesses nearly so much berthing room for shipping as this port, the report comes that their wharves afford much greater facilities than the demands of the shipping require. The captain of a vessel from Port Chalmers, upon his arrival here lest week, expressed his surprise at the busy appearance of Lyttelton harbor, and remarked that tor eight or ten days consecutively during his stay at Port Chalmers there was not a vessel to be seen at the principal piers there. This is an unpleasant state of affairs for the harbor authorities there to contemplate, more particularly just at this generally brisk shipping season of the year; and its depressing mfluence_ was, no doubt, felt by the writer of the following, taken from the “Otago Daily Times The arrival of the over due ships Coromandel and Oamaru, with one or two intercolonial vessels, will again make the port assume a busy appearanoe, which we are sorry has not been the case for some time past, the only vessels at the Hallway pier being the ships Padishah and Conolanns, while at the Export wharf there are three ships—the Marlborough, Otaki, and Canterbury.” - SHIPPING TELEGRAMS.
