. The Kennedy sailed for West Coast ports this morning. The Wallace and Charles Edward arrived at Hokitika this morning. The Maori arrived from Lyttelton this afternoon. She will sail for West Coast ports at 5 o'clock this evening. The Taranaki mil arrive from the North to-night, and sail for the South to-morrow morning. The cutter Goldseeker arrived from Havelock this morning with a general cargo. The cutter Maid of Italy sailed for Riwaka this morning. The schooner Awaroa sailed for Wanganui this morning. She has been beating against the sea breeze all day, and at the time of our going to press had secured a good offing. The Arawata will arrive from Wellington to-morrow morning with the inward Suez mail, and will sail -with the outward Suez mail by the same tide. The Waipara, which had been advertised to sail for West Coast, has been taken off the berth, and will sail for the scene of the wreck this evening. She has been chartered by the Wreck Recovery Company. At the time of being engaged she was half full of cargo for the West Coast, all of which had to be landed again. The Murray arrived at Westport last night after a very rough passage, discharged her cargo, and proceeded to Greymouth. She will leave there to-morrow for Wellington via Westport with the outgoing San Francisco mail, which would otherwise have been too late in consequence of the detention of the 1 steamer on the West Coast by the late bad weather. Vessels hailing from Nelson have been making a name for themselves lately by accomplishing smart trips. The latest is the passage of the schooner Richard and Mary, owned by Mr Frauzeu, which arrived iv Wellington yesterday morning, having run the distance from Lyttelton in twenty -four hours. The schooner Herald, after a long stay in harbor, sailed for the Pelorus Sound this morning. While going out of the harbor she hugged the Boulder Bank too closely, and the result was an unexpected pile up on the stoves. All efforts to get her off proved futile. She will probably get off this evening at high water. The Herald, it is thought, has sustained no damage, the master having taken the precaution to put spars under her bilge, thereby keeping her from chafing against ths sharp stoves. The Union Company's s.s. Wanaka, Captain M'GHlivray, came into harbor this morning at 5.30. She left Port Chalmers at 4 p.m. on the 15th, and arrived at Akaroa at 9 a.m. on the 16th; after a short stay there sailed for liyttelton, which port was reached at 5 p.m. same day; left at 6 p.m. on the 17th, and and arrived at Wellington at noon on the 18th; sailed at 1.30 p.m. yesterday, and. reached Picton at 6 p.m.; left at 9.30 p.m., came through the French Pass, and arrived here as above. Five weather marked the passage thronghout. The Wauaka sailed for Northern ports, carrying the outward San Francisco mail, this afternoon.
