We have received intelligence of an exceedingly painful character, from the Fast coast, by Ihe Hiomama schooner, Captain Sliirb'v, which arrived ill Auckland oil Sunday morning last. In tliat quarter, the weather lias proved to In* even more .severe; I linn thai which we have experienced here,* and we lament lo add llial il hits been attended Willi fearful and fatal results. Such was the tempestuous state of the weather thai I lie lliomanin was compelled lo run from llawkes llav. leaving both her anchors and cables behind her; and, after her arrival, bring necessitated to sail about the harbour of Auckland until she could bo supplied with others to moor her in .safely. The Hiomama sailed from Auckland on ihe 20ih February for llawkes Hay. Alter an excellent passage, she lauded most of her cargo, and had shipped a considerable (pinntilv of oil bv Ihe 2nd of March. On 'hat day, a gale "set in which continued to increase, blowing violently Irom I - ..t0 F..N.!•>., and, at in'.ervals, veering to W.—S.W . by S.—until on Wednesday las!, when il settled down to ii heavy gale at W.S.W. At this time the Hiomama lay with both her anchors down and all her chain run out, when she began to drive, and continued so to do until she found hersell wilhin half a cable's length of the rocks under Longl'oint. At this perilous juncture, Captain Sturley slipped from belli his anchors and stood out lo sea. Fortunately the lliomama proved herself to be a craft"equal to the emergency; and in about seven hours she succeeded in working safely out of the Ray under double reefed canvas". When she hail gained the ocean, a sea struck her forward, and carried away her starboard cathead and jib-boom, and, at the same time, split her jib ami foresail to ribbons. Captain Sturley at once bore lip for Auckland, a id the wind proving fair, reached his moorings in safety on Sunday last. The prevailing rains have been so frequent and so heavy al Hawke's Bay that they have been prod'uclive of the most appalling results. Laud slips have been frightfully extensive. Two boat parties have had their whaling stations entirely destroyed. And, in the vicinity of the Fast Cape, immense, fragments of rock have been precipitated a considerable distance into the sea. Near Awanui, on the South side of the hast Cape, a land slip had occurred which had completely buried a house in the occupation of one Daniel Taylor, a carpenter. At the moment of this terrific occurrence, Ihe dwelling was inhabited by the poor fellow Taylor himself, his wife, and three children, together with a man named George Taylor, and a native. Every one of these unfortunate people, with Ihe exception of George were destroyed on the instant. George Jaylor's escape is entirely owing lo the ridge pole of the house having providentially fallen across two chests ; by which means ihe poor fellow was enabled to extricate himself from the ruins. As for those who perished, they were dug out and buried, the whole house, having been completely ongulphed. Whilst the Hiomama lay becalmed off the EasiCape, a boat from the shore reported the loss of three native vessels, driven ashore by Ihe tempest at Ilicks Hay. Two of these, Ihe East Cape and the llenloinond, are said to he total wrecks. The scene of the wreck of the Benlomond has been depicted to us in terrific characters. She is described as having rolled over and over, grinding her masts to pieces in the surf. The third vessel, the Waiapn, we arc happy lo learn, will, in all probability be saved.
