The Wairoa, Captain W_. Barclay, with twelve saloon, six second cabin, and thirty-two steerage passengers, sailed from London on July 14th for this port, and the Pleiades, Captain gotten, on the same date, with five saloon, six second-class and five steerage passengers. The nautical inquiry into the loss of the Auckland-owned barque Stag, on the north side of Vans Hart’s Shoal, in Furneaux group (Tasmania), ascribe her loss to an error in navigation. Tho barque was abandoned earlier than necessary. The certificate of the master (Captain.McCabe) was suspended for three months. The mate (McDonald) was censured for not having the pumps clear for sounding, and for not seeing , that the lead was used during his watches. The Union Steamship Company’s Te Anan arrived yesterday at 9a.m. from Port Chalmers and Melbourne. At the laat-mmed port the Te Anan received an-overhaul to her machinery bar accommodation. Her saloon was redecorated, and nowpresents a moat handsome appearance. Her second cabin was also put in fint-class order, and the deck-houses and all the woodwork about her repainted and grained. The steamer left for Wellington yesterday at 4L30 p.nu _ . ~, Mr Monro, who bought the wreck of the Agnosia, at Motonau, succeeded in saving all tSie gear, spars, sails, Ac. He says that a few days before the sale bad easterly weather played havoc •with the hull of the schooner. Had the wreck been his only a week earlier, he thinks he would have had no great trouble in patching the vessel fin sufficiently to float her off. Coming out of Port Philip the steamer Te Anan, then fresh from an overhaul, fell in with m opportunity to test her The Victoria, a fonrteen-knot boat, belonging to Adelaide, left Sandridge a little before the Te Anan, but her master. Captain John McLean, seeing the red funnel liner astern, waited lot her to get on even terms with the Victorian. When the two steamers came abreast, with a space sufficiently between them that those on board oonld hail each other without exertion, both were pnt at full speed, and kept at it down to the Heads. Captain Carey and Titffi passengers had the satisfaction, no doubt a sweet one, of seeing his Adelaide rival lose a good race of thirty-one miles by some lengths ; time, two hours and fourteen minutes. The Ta Anan has always been regarded as the nicest of the nice boats of the Union Company to travel by, and her estimable commander says she is in grand going order at tho present fiime. .
