The steamship Eotomahana, which started yesterday afternoon for the Bluff, grounded in the Yarra, and has not yet been got off. Part of her cargo is now being transhipped into lighters, and it is expected that she will float off with tonight’s tide. So far as is known, she has sustained no injury. Wheat—Shipping is in fair demand at 4s lOd to 6s; moderate enquiry for malting barley at 3s 9d to 4s 2d. New Zealand oats are in good demand at 3s lid to 4s 3d for feeding qualities and 4s 4d to 4s 5d for milling oats. All persons who were injured at the recent railway accident are progressing favorably.
The weather is cloudy to-night, and it is considered doubtful whether the transit of Venus will be visible from the Victorian station to-morrow morning.
