The schooner Richard and Mary, which has been undergoing some alterations aloft, will sail for Waitapu to-morrow. The barque Melrose arrived at Newcastle from Nelson on March 24th, after a good run of 13 days from this port. We understand that a telegram has been received in town advising the arrival of the batquentine Mary Wadley at Napier on Saturday week, the day after our last communication from that place. A number of the mosquito fleet, which had been detained by the bad weather on Saturday, took advantage of the change of •wind yesterday, and made sail for their respective destinations. The cutter Margaret Scoliay sailed yesterday morning on an oyster cruise, and proceeded in the direction of Pepin Island, at which place the dredges will be dropped over the side. It is to be hoped that better luck will attend the efforts of Captain Scoones than he has hitherto met with in these grounds: The ship Northampton tripped anchor at 4 o'clock yesterday morning and set sail for Wellington, at which port she will land the immigrants aud the whole of the cargo. Eaypred by a strong S.W. wind the ship was not long in getting out of sight, and if the wind continued in the same direction she ought to have been at her destination in the evening. The steamer Lyttelton arrived in harbor last evening at 1 1 o'clock after a stormy passage from Blenheim. She left there on Friday afternoon, but through being stuck in the river did not cross the bar until I a.ru: on Saturday, when there was found to be such a heavy sea running that Captain Scott determined to take shelter in some friendly nook, which was accordingly done. A start vras made again the same day, and the Lytte'ton came through the Pass at 3 o'clock yesterday afternoon, and arrived here as above. She will sail for Blenheim via Kekerangu to-morrow morning. The Union Company's s.s. Taupo, Captain Carey, came into harbor early yesterday morning. She left Onehunga at 2 p.m. on Friday, and arrived off Taranaki early next morning, but on account of the heavy sea running was not able to communicate with the shore, and consequently proceeded on to Nejson, arriving here the same evening, and entering the harbor as above. She sailed for Southern ports at 3 p.m. to-day..
