He crossed the bar at 4.30 p.m. about an hour and a-half after full tide and was signalled aeross the bar by semaphore, with ample water at the entrance. He traversed the river channel without a pilot and except for a slight shallow at. Duncan’s Bend, tied up at the wharf at 0 p.m. He said he had no difficulty in making the port although very little' information is published about local conditions. From his observations and with the tide against him, he said he experienced no difficulty. He could not say whether the scow would make regular trips. The Kohi will leave for Wellington empty on this evening’s tide. The'Wellington agents for the Kohi are Messrs A. H. Turnbull and Co.
