STORM AT HASTINGS (TAPU CREEK)
The New Zealand Herald, June 15, says: —By the arrival of the Mary Ami from Hastings (Tapu Creek) yesterday morning we learn that the-, gale which proved-so destructive at Shortland was also severely, felt at Hastings, a number of tents being blown into ribbons, and one or two buildings in course of erection blown down. The schooner Julia and cutter Mary Ann, which Lad just finished discharging their cargoes, were driven ashore. The Mary Ann succeeded in getting off again without much difficulty, but the Julia is still high - up in the sand. On Saturday last her ballast was thrown overboard, but this did not have the effect of floating her. Another attempt is to be made this morning and if unsuccessful, she will probably have to remain there for-some time.
