The Kennedy an.'ved at Westporfc yesterday afternoon, after a smart ran of 18 hours. The Wallace, weather permitting, leaves Wellington for Nelson this evening. The Murray arrived from Opunake and Wanganni last evening. She ia announced for Wellington on Wednesday at 5 p.m. The Lyttelton is expected to leave Blenheim for Nelson tc-day. The Croydon Lass arrived from Wellington yesterday morning, after an average passage. SHr bringa a general cargo. The Natal Queen sa'led on Saturday afternoon for Oamaru, where she loads with grain for Adelaide. The May, which sailed for Wanganui ou Saturday, returned to port yesterday morning, after proceeding as far as Durville's Island, in consequence of ihe severity of the weather. The Wellington leaves Wellington this afternoon, will arrive hero to-morrow morning, and sail for Picton and Wellington by the same tide at 8 a.m. Among the arrivals in harbor yesterday morning- was a waif from (he sea in the shape of a fishing smack. Three weeks ago this boat left Jackson's Bay for Hokitika. She arrived off there safely, but was unable to cross the bar on account of the heavy sea running. Her crew then made for Westpoit, bat here again the bar was impracticable, so there was nothing for it but to pot to sea. Tee provisions bad now run short, and the crew had to subsist on mussels, of which, fortunately, there was a supply in the boat. This to them delicious dish was washed down ■with copious draughts of brackish water. After being buffeted about here and there for some days by the winds and waves, the crew found themaelves off Cape Farewell, aad as there was no hope of returning to the West Coast just then they determined to shape a course for Nelson. They called at the Tata Islands, where they received a plentiful supply of provisions from a hospitable settler there, after which they made sail arriving here as above. The boat, which is rigged as a ketch, is without bulwarks, and has lost her bowsprit. How she managed to nde safely through the heavy weather which she experienced is a mystery, though her crew aver that she is a good sea boat. She is now lying alongside the Corporation Wharf.
