DEPARTURE. July 25.— Cutter KatJterine Johnstone, Taylor, for Wanganui. By the Qarlon, which arrived on Tuesday evening, ■we have recived the melancholy intelligence of the loss of the schooner Richmond, Brown master, off the bar at Kawhia, when all on board perished. The Richmond was chartered by Mr. J. Spencer, and left the roadstead -at Taranaki with the Ann and Sarah cutter, on the 26th ult. for Kawhia to load for Wellington. On Saturday - evening, the 29th, both vessels were in company off Albatross Point, and at 9 a. m. the following morning, - the wind blowing strong from the N.W. the cutter arrived safely in harbour, haring shipped a heavy sea on the bar. At 11 a.m., the schooner in getting over the bar, was struck by a heavy sea, which threw her on her beam ends, and she then turned keel uppermost; shortly afterwards she went to pieces. It is supposed she must have grounded on the north spit, and upset. The persons on board were the captain and crew, in all four hands, Mr Frederick Aubrey late of Taranaki, and a young man of the name of Miles, on his way to England. The only body that has yet been found is that of a man named Anderson, which was lashed to the main boom, and has been washed ashore. The Sisters schooner of Sydney, Captain H. Hay, ■ was loading for this port when the Scotia left Sydney. The Comet arrived at Nelson on the 2d inst. ; she en- • countered very heavy weather after leaving Twofold Bay, and lost 162.0f her sheep : she sailed from Nelson to Sydney on the 19th, with 35,000 feet of timber, and returns thither within two months with another cargo of - sheep.
