The cutter Dauntless and schooner May are busily employed in bringing ballast from the Moutere for the Adamant. The former arrived this morning with a load. The Richard and Mary, on her way from Lyttelton to Waitapu, arrived here last evening. She left Lyttelton on Thursday morning la3t, and had head winds as far as Port Underwood, where a strong S.E. wind was experienced, which carried the vessel up to the French Pass. About sixteen vessels, which had taken shelter in the different bays, were seen to come out of their places of refuge immediately the S.E. wiud began, and all stand through the Straits. The Richard and Mary will sail for Waitapu to-morrow. The Wellington returned f roui her excursion trip at 10 a.m. to-day. She left Wellington at 7.30 p.m. yesterday, aud reached Picton at 12.30 am. to-day; " sailed at J.30 a.m., and arrived here as above. Fine weather was experienced throughout the passage. The Wellington now carries the exemption flag, and Captain M'Gee brought- his vessel into harbor for the first time this morning. The steamer sailed for JPicton and Wellington at 120 p.m., with a large number of passengers, some of whom are for the Wakatipu aud Kotorua. The brigantiue which passed by here on Saturday was, as we predicted, the Roderick Dhu, bound for Motueka. She came to an anchor at the mouth of the river near Riwaka, that being the • must convenient place for landing her cargo. The first raft was constructed on Tuesday, but while taking it to the shore it came adrift, aud went to pieces through the violence of the waves, and was strewn all along the beach. Yesterday morning another raft was constructed and made fast to the vessel, while all hands went to pickup the timber of the first one. During their absence the second ouc broke adrift aud went to pieces, and a light wiud springing up carried the timber out to sea, one of the piles being passed by the cutter Maid of Italy off the Moutere this morning. It is probable that the brigautine will shift round to Motueka to laud the remainder of the cargo, as at the place where sho now lies it is very difficult to laud, on account of the heavy sea which runs in there when there is the least wind blowing.
