As she would only lie at Newcastle about four days, she ought by this time to be well on her way to Nelson. A terrific KW. gale raged in Wellington on Sunday last, the water being feather white. The ship Ben Venue lying alongside the wharf, pulled away one of the piles, otherwise no damage was done. The ship Larnarkshire, from London, which had nearly reached the Heads was blown out to sea again, and had not shown up at the time of the Wellington sailing yesterday afternoon.
