A portion of her cargo is for Nelsoui.i; Seeing that ships which have ar-v rived afc Wellington from London lately have I taken as long to perform the ■ voyage as the ' class of Vessels we have been getting at Nelson for' some years it is difficult to under-: stand-why our merchants) allow their goods to come that iway. j ; The: cargo is nofc only, longer in reaching its destination, but also suffers some damage in consequence of being handled so. many' times; If proper representations'were made to either: Shaw Saviil and Go. or: tbfl-New Zealand Shipping Con_pany by our importers Nelson would receive a visit now and then from a clipper ship. ■ ■
