The New Zealand Shipping Company’s wellknown ship Hangitiki, from London, came to an anchorage in the harbor last night at 7.30. She brought fifty-one passengers in all classes, the names of whom are given above. The ship, as •will be seen below, made an exceptionally fast passage, and it is but due to her commander and officers to state that she came into port in that well-cared-for state of cleanliness and good order the reputation for which has so largely contributed to the success and popularity of the company to which she bsloogs. On arrival of the vessel Captain Milman was visited by a deputation of friends from the shore, many of whom had travelled with him in days gone by, and others who were looking forward to the advent of their friends from home in the colony. Thera ■were also one or two on board the steam launch Lyttelton that took the first chance of meeting their sons, apprentices in the company’s employ, and their eagerness in hearing of the welfare or promotion of the boys, as may well be imagined was most marked. The passengers on board had, without an exception, a good word for the captain and his officers, Mr Canise, the chief, sharing liberally in their encomiums. No sickness or accidents occurred daring the voyage to any of the passengers, and only such trifling damage to tho ship herself as is incidental to the experiences of tho rough weather the vessel mot with in running down the easting and off the Snares. A number of prize rams of the Leicester species arrived by the vessel in pripe condition. The lateness of the hour at which the ship arrived prevented any close inspection, but from the reports of those in charge, the animal belong to some of the best stock in the Midland Counties. Of the sailing particulars of the passage and the dates, the following condensed report, kindly supplied by the master, may be of interest June 25th, at noon, left the Docks; Jnne 27th, at 7.30a.m., the tugboat left the ship off St. Catherine’s, wind S.W.
