She will take her departure on the first change of ■wind. The barque Canny Scofc will finish discharging her cargo of coal on Monday, when she will commence taking in ballast. She •will probably sail for Newcastle on Wednesday. Captain Griffiths, whilom of the steamer ladybird, but lattery of the Wakaiipu, has been appointed commander of the steamer Beautiful Star. The repairs to the Waiparaare progressing as rapidly as possible. The painters are now engaged in painting her, and when she comes out of their hands she will look quite fresh. It •will, however, be the latter end of next week ■before she is ready to proceed to Hok'tika. The umropitious state of the weather today has had the effect of postponing the departure of several of the coasting fleet, which will sail at the first opportunity. For the same reasons the arrivals and departures have been almost nil, the Lady Barkly being the oily one that has sailed, while the Charles Edward comprises the arrivals. '
