The schooner Spray, from Lyttelton, with a cargo of- produce, arrived in the roadstead yesterday, and was brought to the wharf by the p. s. Dispatch between eight and nine o'clock last night. The s.s. Murray leaves early this morning for Hokitika. The following paper was picked up in a bof'.j on the North Beach, about half-a-mile no;& of the flagstaff, on the 27th May, at 3 p.m., by a party of miners, and has been handed to us for publication. It is evidently genuine, and written by Captain T. Underwood:—"This paper was despatched from the steamer Albambra, of Melbourne, off Cape Farewell", N.Z., for the purpose of discovering the set and drift of the current on the Coast, on the 29th February, 1872 ; will the finder please forward it to some of the N.Z. papers, and oblige.— T. U. "Wind S. W., fresh.*'
