E'oUawing is the statement of the master of t ; o iaat schooner Aspasia :—"We left ?oxten on ili» 10th inst for Motanan with a cargo ■ f S 0)0 feet of timber consigned to Mr ti.a . trw e >;i?n holder. We arrived on Frdiy, tha 14th liinc, and commenced to land the carxo. Put out about 5000 feet that day. On Saturday morning the wind oame in from the S VV., and wo put to Bea. 'Returned on E&turday night. The sea and wind having gone down by Sunday afternoon, wo resumed discharging, and landed about (JOQO or 7000 feet. On Monday morning had to put to sea again and returned at midr.i,;ht. We brought up well to the southward of Mbtonau, aad on Tuesday morning the sea had gone down, and there was a light wind varying to W.S.W. We hove np anchor, and dropped d > ■vu a little way for discharging, bnt soon the ■wiad freshened from 8.9. W., and the Bea rose. A" about 10 a.m. hove short, and got under' ■w.iigh to beat out under double reefed canvas. In doing so tho vessel mi; sod ataya, and we let go t'ij port anchor on fifty fathoms of chain. She h i ig on at this until about 3 p.m., when she (i immenced dragging fieely. The second auchor v n then 1-1 go, the vessel being then pretty c- 43 in to th-t breakers. It wus blowing a g*le i v n the 5.3. W. with a heavy sea. The second » 'io? brought her np for a short time K ihare was too much wind and ssa for her, r -, swinging in ahoro, she soon commenced to *i :ap heavily, starting her rudder and sternI> • *. Then finding no possibla chance to save ■ • ', we shipped the port anchor and let her on t baaoh. As she mads a tort of breakwater f >tt dingy, myself and tho crew got ashore. ■- ■ • i i lying on a reef, with port and Btii board ti._' i sd rudder gone, and tbo vessel completely t Btar-.-d. On the Wednesday, I, with the assista- re raf men from the station, set to save all that i■-.: Abe saved from the wreck, and on Tbur.M:..f the orewunbent the.sails, and saved whatever eke they could. Nearly the whole of .the c-r s 'o was saved, but both myself and the "<sraw lost everything we possessed but the clothing we were wearing at the time." The vessel was insured in the Batavia office for .£350, not, us i-i parted, in the Liverpool, London and Globe, and the freight in the New Zealand Company far £6O. She was built by Mesara Holmea Broa. at tho North Shore, Auc>Un<l, in 186:1, and was purchased about Biz yeira since by vaptaiu M. Moore, who had oharge of r.er when ehe was lost.
