The Lytteiton left Blenheim for Nelson this morning, and will arrive to-morrow morniog. The Hawea, with the San Francisco mail, left New Plymouth this morning. She will arrive to-night, and sail for the South by the same tide. > The Kennedy and Charles Edward will leave Westport to-night, the former for Nelson, and the latter for Greyrnouth. The Wallace left for Wanganui yesterday evening. The schooner Waitohai will sail for Havelock to-morrow, weather permitting. The Taranaki sailed for Northern ports shortly before 3 o'clock yesterday afternoon, and arrived at New Plymouth at 9 a.m. today. The Arawata leaves Melbourne to-day for New Zealand. The schooner Richard and Mary is daily expected from Oamaru with a cargo of breadstuffs, she having left thai port on Thursday last. She is consigned to Mr R. Levien. Ia consequence of the inclement state of the weather the Lady Barkly wa3 the only vessel which ventured to put to sea to-day, several coasting vessels preferring to remain snag in harbor to knocking about outside in such weather as the present. The Murray appears to have had her share of bad weather lately. She arrived fron Wellington yesterday afternoon at I*3o after a very stormy passage across. She left the Empire City at 8- 15 p.m. on Saturday, and immediately on getting into the Straits encountered a strong blow from the N.E., with a nasty jobble. On approaching Jackson's Head thick weather with heavy rain set in, and as it was impossible to see more than two or three lengths ahead, the Murray was hove to for three hours, at the expiration of which time it had cleared sufficiently to warrant the steamer proceeding on her course, which was accordingly done, and she arrived here as above. The Murray will sail at 6 a.m. to-morrow with the West Coast portion of the San Francisco mail.
