The Taiaroa could not get out of Wellington last evening on account of the S.E. gale, vrhich was raging there with great fury. She, however, left this afternoon, will arrive here to-morrow morning, and sail ior Taranaki and Manukau at 6 p ra. The Wellington arrived at the outer anchorage at 10 a.m. to-day, too late to catch the morning tide. She left New Plymouth at 1.30 p.m. yesterday with fine weather which lasted until dusk, when a furious S.E. gale ■was experienced. Very soon a tremendously hsavy sea came down, and with the wind dead in her teeth the Wellington steamed against it, at times hardly holding her own. The deck was constantly deluged with water, the sea coming over frequently. This continued until reaching Blind Bay, when fine weather was experienced. As an instance of the gale it may be mentioned that the steamer only went thirteen miles in seven hours daring the night, The Wellington will come into harbor this afternoon, and sail for Picton and Wellington by the same tide at 6 p.m.
