The Bteamer Waitaki, at present engaged in the trade between Danedin and Oamaru, has been put on the rnnning instead of the' Taiaroa, which steamer has been ordered to Danedin, but for what purpose is not known. The new steamer will arrive here from Picton, Wellington and South on Friday.

The Union Steam Ship Company have received a favorable notice from one of the Sydney papers. After alluding to the Company itself the paper goes on to say : -" The Company's vessels have gained a special came for safety and comfort with the travelling public, aud their steamers are always prtronised by the passengers to and from New Zealand, especially the Wakatipu, a magnificent steamer of 1796 tons, with a horse power of 1250. To those who are not acquainted with the Union Company's fine fleet it may not be amiss to say that the Wakatipu, although a really splendid •teamer, fitted up with every luxury, her 8 tee rage being far superior to many saloons of coasting steamers, is only one of a fleet of eighteen steamers, all superbly finished, of immense strength and horse-power."
