The vessel signalled yesterday proved to ■be, as we anticipated, the barque Kvik, from Newcastle. As she was a long distance off this morning the Wallace was sent to her aid, and succeeded in bringing her into harbor before high water this afternoon. The Kvik, which flies the Norwegian flag, left Newcastle on June 26, and experienced light N.W. winds up to Wednesday last, when a heavy gale was met with, which lasted till the following day. During the gale the barque lost two staysails. Cape Farewell was sighted on Thursday, since which time baffling winds have been met with. The Kvik came to an anchor in the stream, where a quantity of cargo will be taken out of her by the hulk Hera. She brit-gs a cargo of 600 tons of coal, consigned to Messrs N Edwards & Co.
