She bore some resemblance to the Pelican, but thoagh signalled to from the Heads her name was not made out. She could not, however, have been the Jessie Niccol, as that vessel left Port Chalmers hut yesterday for the Chatham Islands on a sealing cruise.

As the Hawea was making Akaroa Heads yesterday, she passed some floating wreckage. In appearance it resembled the bows of a small vessel and a piece of a spar, the broken end of which looked fresh. Several pieces of sawn timber were floating with the wreck, and yesterday afternoon the Magistrate at Akaroa telegraphed to the harbor-master here, asking whether he knew of any small vessel expected at Lyttelton, loaded with rimu, as a quantity of that description of timber had been picked up in ihe harbor. Thera is, however, no vessel bound to this port yet reported as missing. One of those who saw tie wreckage states that it appeared to be covered with seaweed, as though it had been a long while afloat. [FROM OTTR OWK CORRESPONDENT.! AKAROA, July 6.
