The Murray left Greymouth for Westport and Nelson this morning. The Lyttelton entered tha Grey this morning. The Luna and Maori were lving outside, and were likely to enter by the same'tide. The Kennedy's departure for West Coast ports is postponed until to-morrow ou account of the weather. The Charles Edward will leave Hokitika to-morrow morning. She reports :— " Channel good; bar rough; weather fine." The Lady Barkly will sail for Motueka i and Golden Bay at 6-30 to-night. The cutter Midge sailed for Waitapu last i evening. 'The schooner Waitohai took her departure j for Havelock last evening. The schooner Sisters sailed for Motupipi last evening. The schooner Australian Maid arrived from Awaroa this morning too late to save the tide, and came to an anchor at the back of naul-ashore Island. • The schooner Awaroa crossed the Wanganui bar early this morning with a northerly gale behind her. She will probably show up here some time to-morrow. The schooner Waihopai beat up against the S.W. wind this afternoon under a doublereefed mainsail, and came to an anchor. She is from Lyttelton with a cargo of breadstuffs, and has made rather a long passage, doubtless caused by the prevailing bad weather. The Zior, a smart-looking topsail schooner, Captain Bell, from Timaru, sailed into harbor this morning, aud came to an anchor in the stream. She left Timaru on the 18th instant, and took shelter from the late gales in the Sound, where she lay for over a weeL. The Zior brings a cargo of barley, &c, for Messrs Hooper and Dbdson. The Phoebe was this morning taken from the Commercial Wharf and anchored in the streai _, io order to make room for the Wellington, where she remained until thi3 afternoon, when she hauled alongside the Government Wharf. The hulk Hera" was then moored to her, and at once commenced filling the steamer's bunkers with coal. The Phoebe will sail for Sydney to-morrow morning. The cutter Maid of Italy arrived from Riwaka this morning, after an absence of aboat a fortnight. Since she was here last she has been to Waitapu for a load of timber, which she took to Riwaka. The Maid of Ita'y crossed the bar at that place ou Thursday, but in consequence of a heavy freshet she was carried out to sea again. The wind then blew hard from the N.E., accompauied with a very high sea, and Captain Clarke determined to try to cross the bar once more, and after a considerable amount of poking about managed to find the entrance, and made the harbor without grounding on the bar, although there was a tremendous sea running. After discharging her cargo the Maid of Italy shipped a few tons of produce, and sailed for Nelson, arriving here as above. The Union Company's s.s. Wellington, Captain Lloyd, came into harbor this mornng at 8 o'clock. She left Port Chalmers at 11 au. on Thursday, and arrived at Lyttelton at 1 p.m. on Friday; sailed at 9 a-.m., and arrived at Wellington at 3 o'clock on Saturday afternoon. It being then too late to discharge cargo the Wellington was detained there until yesterday afternoon, when she sailed for Picton at 1 o'clock, and arrived there at 7-30 p.m.; left at 8-30, and arrived here as above. With the exception of a few showers of rain this morning fine weather was experienced throughout the passage. She brings a quantity of cargo transhipped ex- ships Margaret Galbraith, Hooghley, aud Ben Ledi, from London, and steamer Rotorua from Sydney. The Wellington sails for Northern Ports at 7 p.m. The Margaret Galbraith, which has been lying at Lyttelton for the last five weeks, will not come on to this port. This is to be regretted, as independent of the work she would give to a few of our lumpers in discharging her, the presence of so fine a ship in Nelson waters would considerably improve # the look of the harbor, and fill up one of the numerous gaps at the Government Wharf The Nelson portion of her cargo will be conveyed to this port by the Union Company s steamers, and the first instalment consisting of about 80 tons, arrived by the Wellington this morning. _ "y-ir ir ---iTTriTi-Trmmni n__.
