She has accomplished the all round trip in under a month. The Tasso arrived too late to get into harbor by this morning's tide, and consequently came to an anchor. She will be towed into harbor to-morrow morning. The barque brings a cargo of coal consigned to Mr J. S. Cross, junior. The schooner Arthur Wakefield arrived at Wellington on Monday morning with a load of timber from Waitapu. She was loaded by the ketch Prospect on Saturday, as there was not sufficient water to allow of the vessel coming out of Waitapu with a full load. The Arthur Wakefield lay outside the bar, but a strong breeze from the westward setting in both her and the Prospect had to heave up anchor and run for shelter to the Tata Islands. The schooner sailed from there on Sunday morning, and made the passage to Wellington in under twenty-four hours.
