Lloyd, arrived from Wellington on Tuesday eveniug, and there being a heavy sea rolling in the. bay, and no chance of communicating with the shore till morning, she proceeded to Poverty Bay, returning early yesterday morning. She will steam for Poverty Bay at 10 o'clock this morning. Gale in Auckland.—A very heavy westerly gale raged in Auckland during the whole of Wednesday, doing about £1,500 damage to the shipping and the wharf. The barques Thames, East Lothian, Harriet Armitage, and Nonpareil, aud the schooner Mera were damaged by grinding against the wharf. The Cyphrenes.—A Melbourne telegram states that Messrs Gilchrist, Watt and Coagents for the steamer Cyphrenes, have chartered her to the A.SN. Co., and also offer to charter to them the Macgrcgor and Mikado. The Cyphrenes has undergone a thorough refit during her stay in port, and has left for Newcastle to coal On her return she will take in cargo, &c, for San Francihco, aud will leave with the mails for Europe ou the 26th instant. Her substiution for the City of Adelaide is in every way advantageous. A "Curiosity"-of Literature—The Otago Guardian remarks:-Ships appear to be very great curiosities at. Nap ei\ This is the high-falntin' style in which the Telegraph announces the arrival of the Winchester at that port:-'At an early hour ou Sunday uioruiug. a white speck on the clear but farJistant horizon wait seen, which betokened to authorities on nautical matters the approach of a large vessel. As the day wore ou, any doubts that might have excited on the subject were dispells \ and crowds of people assembled on the beach aud on the hills overlooking the bay, to witness that noble Bight—a ship in full sail." We do not remember anything in the works of G. P. R. James equal to that description.
