The Dispatch ran out yesterday morning to bring in the schooner 10, bnt found that there was a heavy sea on the bar, without sufficient water, when it was determined to leave the schooner at her anchorage. It is to be hoped she will be brought to the wharf this morning. Up to the closing of the telegraph office last night there were still no signs of the ss Tararua off Hokitika. Most probably she will arrive during the night and be tendered here to-day. She takes passengers for Nelson, Wellington, sonthern ports, and Melbourne.

Yesterday morning the ss Murray crossed the bar bound for Westport, and the sb Wallabi for Wanganui It is announced that the ss Kennedy will leave here for Westport and Nelson on Saturday evening. The wreck of the schooner Ocean Bird has been towed into Nelson harbor by the ps Lyttelton It was found between Nile Head and Greville harbor, at anchor. She had all sail set, and is perfeotly sound. Yesterday morning information was brought ashore from the schooner Io that the missing brig Magnet had been spoken by the Maid of Enn on her passage up from Hokitika to Melbourne, about mid-way on her voyage. This is more than a month aso, and nothing has been heard of the brig since. As the Io will most probably be brought in this morning, we may hear something more definite as to the condition of the brig when hut she was seen, and her probable fate.
