The Schooner Sister, Captain Reid, returned to port from the East coast on Thursday evening, in consequence of serious damages received' by collision with a whale., i,The schooner, it appears, wss standing off during the night under easy sail, when she passed over this "monster of the deep, ''.which Captain Reid is of opinion must have, struck the -vessel with' her tail; as the stern was knocked right athwart ship, the wood-ends' being probably startecL Such at least, proved to be the severity of the stroke, that the Schooner was compelled to be immediately trimmed two feet by the stern to keep her afloat, and to put into Anolia next day. 1 There she discharged the whole of, her cargo, and was hove down to accomplish the temporary repair requisite to bring her en to Auckland, where she will be obliged to unload, in order to ascertain and repair < the damage done. It is fortunate that Captain Reid had his vessel under easy sail, and that a port of refuge was available under the disagreeable but rather unusual occurrences. — iVeto Zralander, June 30. , *
