Stormbird was towed round to the Patent Slip yesterday afternoon. The brig F.obin Hood arrived in harbor from Newcastle yesterday morning, and later in the day hauled in to the berth at the wharf vacated by the ship Reichstag. The Robin Hood left Newcastle on the 11th ; met with moderate baffling winds, chiefly from the nor’-west, for three days. On the 14th she experienced a heavy gale from the south-east. From that date had moderate weather until within 200 miles of the Strait. From thence had strong-nor-westerly winds and thick dirty weather. ... The Wreck op the Brig Carl.—The inquiry held at Campbelltown into the cause of the wreck of the brig Carl has been concluded. The is the decision arrived at:—The loss of the brig Carl appears by evidence to have been caused by the wind falling when the vessel was tacking, and the strong flood tide causing her to strike forward on the outer edge of the rocks, which made her stern awing in, go that she was carried on the top of the rocks, when she canted on her port side, and it was found necessary to leave her, os there was danger of her capsizing. That the captain had given orders to stay ship in sufficient time, had the wind not failed him in stays, to clear the danger, and that the,strong flood tide had carried the vessel nearer the danger than he supposed her to be. Had there been any mark to show where the danger actually lay, so as to indicate the vessel s proximity to the rocks, the anchors might have been dropped in time to allow the vessel to siring clear, and the loss might have been avoided- That-the captain appears to have done everything possible to save the vessel, both before and after she struck the rocks. There is no blame attached to the captain for her loss, and there U no reason why Ms certificate should be detained. —Southland Times.
