The schooner Waitohi sailed for Havelock lasfc evening. The Midge sailed for Waitapu lasfc evening. The Tararua arrived at Melbourne from New Zealand yesterday. The Lady Barkly arrived from Golden Bay last evening. The Kennedy and Maori arrived afc Westport this morning. The Australia with the outward San Francisco mail leaves Sydney for Auckland to-day. The Nelson leffc tho Pelorus Sound for Lyttelton with a cargo of timber on Wednesday. The Ringarooma left Melbourne for New Zealand on Wednesday, and will be due afc the Bluff on Sunday. The Wanaka sailed with the outward San Francisco mail afc 5 o'clock lasfc evening, and arrived at Taranaki at 10.30 tbis morning. The Zior hauled alongside fche Commercial Wharf this morning and commenced discharging her cargo. The Arawata having been detained in Wellington twelve hours, she did not arrive until this afternoon. She will sail for Melbourne via South at eight o'clock to-morrow morning. The Wallace when entering Hokitika yesterday touched on the North Spit, but was got off safely shortly afterwards. She will sail for Greymouth to-morrow. The Herald succeeded in getting off the Boulder Bank, after twelve hours' repose, last eveniug. She had apparently sustained no damage, for she immediately sailed for her destination. It appears that the Argus has not yet been able to get round the Spit, tbe Lady Barkly having seen her lying snugly at anchor in Totaranui yesterday. Iv company with her is the Cora, bound from Lyttelton to Hokitika. The Waipara sailed for the Sandspit lasfc evening, with a large complement of divers, carpenters, lumpers, etc. We believe that she will remain as long as the fine weather lasts, transhipping the cargo that she secures Into small coasters, which vessels will bring it on to Nelson. The schooner Colonist, bound from the Manukau to Waitara, was se> nb . the Taranaki off thafc river on Sunt ay last. The Colonist was out in the same gale as the Taranaki, and being a good sea boat came out safely, arriving iv the Manukau, where ehe had run back for shelter, on Wednesday, greatly to the surprise of those on board the steamer. The Union Company's s.s. Taranaki, Captain Malcolm, arrived in harbor afc 6 o'clock this morning. She left Onehunga at 3.30 p.m. on Wednesday, and reached New Plymouth early yesterday morning, landed passengers and cargo, and proceeded on to Nelson at noon ; came along under easy steam, and arrived here as above. Fine weather was experienced on the passage dowu. The Taranaki on the upward trip had her seagoing qualities tested to the utmost. Whil e off Taranaki on Sunday the wind suddenly set in, and the steamer had to clear out as quickly as possible, after landing the mails and passengers, but no cargo. The same afternoon it commenced to blow with hurricane force varying from W.S.W. to S.W., raising a tremendous sea, and as it was unsafe to proceed on the Taranaki was hove to, tbe engines being kept going slow ahead, just sufficiently to keep her head on to the sea. The Taranaki tossed and jumped about a great deal, but did not ship much water. It was not until Monday night that the sea had gone down sufficiently to allow of her proceeding on her course, which she did, arriving at Onehunga on Tuesday morning. The Taranaki sailed from here shortly after eight this morning for Southern Ports. She will proceed as far as Wellington, where she will await the arrival of the Hawea from South, and then come on to Picton and Nelaon.
