Shipping Summary.

PORT OP, NAPIER. The foreign arrivals at this port since the date of our summary for the month of November, have been but two, the ship Strathallan, from London, and the brigantine Vistula, from Newcastle and Sydney. The departures for foreign ports have been three, the ship Cambalu, for Valparaiso, the brigantine Balmoral, for Hobart Town, and the brigantine Vistula, for Adelaide via Mercury Bay. The ship Strathallan, Captain Isaac Paddle, arrived at .this port late on the night of Sunday, 2nd December, after a pleasant passage of 105 days from London, and 97 from Gravesend, She brought out a large general cargo for this jjort (particulars of winch will be found below), and sixtylour passengers, a list of whom appear below. We are glad to say that there was no deaths during the passage; there were two births. Since her arrival here, the Strathallan Jias'eompleted the discharge of her inward cargo, and is now taking in wool for London, and will have early despatch. The brigantine Vistula, Captain John Baton, from Sydney and Newcastle, with 161 tons, large general cargo, and two passengers, arrived in this harbor on the morning of Sunday, Bth December, after a passage of 16 days. She left Sydney on the 33rd November with fresh N.W. wind, whicli lasted for two days; afterwards had variable winds, chiefly southerly, blade Stephens’ Island on the Ist December, and was obliged to take shelter in Port Hardy on the 2nd, in consequence of a strong southerly gale; left on the 3rd, and again had to take shelter in the Pelorus Sound, which she finally left on Friday, 7th Dec. Rounded Cape Palliser at 4 a.m. on the Sth; and Cape Kidnappers at 6 a.m. on the 9 th; brought up in the roadstead at 8 o’clock the same morning. After completing discharge of her cargo, the Vistula sailed for Adelaide via Mercury Bay, at wiiich latter place she would take in a cargo of 90,000 ft. timber. During the month the p.s. Huntress has changed hands, ■ —Captain G. E. Read, of Poverty Bay, being the purchaser. £SOO, we believe, was the sum our Government realised by tills transaction. On the 7tb Dec. the Huntress steamed for Tauranga and Auckland, under command of her owner. After arrival at Auckland, she received a thorough overhaul, and has been placed upon the trade between that port and Wangarei, The schooner Henry, which vessel has for so long a pe. riod been an eye-sore to the port, has during the month been rendered fit for sea, and now looks remarkably smart. She is' in charge of Captain R. Baxter, formerly of the wrecked schooner Lady Bird, and has been principally engaged in lightering. The arrivals from, and departures to, the several Provinces have been rather above the average. A complete list will be found below.

The brig Maggie, Captain Le Couteur, which left this port for Newcastle, N.S.W., on the 34th November, put to to Wellington on the 15th December, short of water, having met with very bad weather since leaving Napier. We are glad to perceive that another vessel may shortly he expected here from the mother country. We refer to the ship Montmorency’, 1,000 tons, Capt. Cooper, which was loading at London for Napier direct at the date of our latest advices, and was to have sailed on the loth Nov. The Montmorency will come out consigned to Messrs, Stuart ami Co., and will, we understand, be the bearer of some 250 immigrants for this Province. Another deportation of Hau-hau prisoners has taken place during the past month, —the Colonial Government as. St. Kilda having steamed for the Chatham Islands on Saturday, 22nd December, with 31 men, 13 women, and 6 children.

The s.s. Wellington, Captain Renner, from Wellington, with the English Mail rid Panama, anchored to the roadstead at 4 a.m. on Tuesday last. She steamed for Tauranga .and Auckland at noon the same day. We understand that the s.s. Wellington lost on anchor*and a quantity of cable while in the Bav.

The s.s. Kaikoura, Captain Machin, arrived at Wellington at Jft p.m. on the 23rd tost., having left Panama on the 24th rdt.

There was a very high sea on in the Bay during Tuesday and Wednesday last, to consequence of* the heavy gale from the southward.

The brigantine Esther put in here for shelter on Tuesday last. ■ While to the Bay she lost an anchor and 60 fathoms cable; this, however, was subsequently recovered. The Esther proceeded on her voyage down the coast on Thursday last.

Throughout the gale which raged on Tuesday and Wednesday last, the ship Strathallan bad only one anchor out, whicli, however, proved quite equal to the occasion. The barque Ensign was moored to the Government buoy.

Renner, arrived in the roadstead shortly before 5 o’clock last evening from Tauranga and Auckland; and will leave for Wellington, Lyttelton, and Port Chalmers to-morrow (Tuesday) at noon, carrying the Panama mail. The s.s. Star of the South, Captain Bcndall, arrived from Auckland on Thursday last, with a large general cargo and 17 passengers. We understand that she is likely to make or two trips to;Lytte!twi with sheep. h Tiif barque Ensign, om firsttwool ship,-Captain* Sanger, is announced to' leave for London direct to-morrow, (Tuesday), but quite likely she will not get away before V ednesday or Thursday, The Ensign has upwards of 1,600 bales of wool, on board, and will convey to the mother country several old settlors. We trust to hear of her making a clipping passage home. On Saturday last, about 4 p.m., the good ship Strathallan took on hoard her first bale of wool. The event was celebrated by the firing of guns, cheering, and a grand display of bunting from both the Ensign and Strathallan. The s.s. Beautiful Star, Captain 11. Morwick, steamed for Akiteo in ballast on Friday last. From thence she will proceed to Auckland with a cargo of sheep. The schooner Queen, Captain Loverock, sailed for Tauranga yesterday morning, with 39 head of cattle, and 4 passengers. The other departures since our last have been as follows: —On Saturday the cutter Dolphin and ketch Taraipine for Wairoa with general cargoes, and the cutter Mahia, for Blackhead, with general cargo. On Sunday, the schooner Kauri, via the East Coast, with sawn timber, shingles, and sundries. The s.s. Star of the Evening, Captain A. C. Turner, may be expected here to-day from Auckland. The s.s. Lord Asldey, Captain A. Kennedy, is due here from Southern Provinces on Wednesday next, 2nd January, and will leave for Tauranga and Auckland at noon on Thursday, 3rd January. ..A fore-and-aft schooner, probably the Joanna from Mercury Bay, anchored in the roadstead late last evening. AUCKLAND SHIPPING. The s.s. Star of the Evening arrived at Auckland on the evening of the 25th inst., mid landed her cargo of sheep in salety. She was announced to leave for Napier on Saturday, and may, therefore, he expected here to-day. At Auckland, on Christmas Day and Boxing Day* the the various ships in harbor were gaily decorated with bunting, evergreens, &c., the most conspicuous being the Ida Zeigler and Chile. The ship Winterthur, with a cargo valued at £35,000, left Auckland for London at noon on on the 27th inst.’ and made a long reach to seaward before night. The regular-trading schooner Saucy lass, Captain D. H. M’Kenzie, sailed for this port via Mercury Bay on the 34th mst.
