Matilda bears, crushing one of her boats ; carried away spanker boom and afterhouso on deck ; March 2, second officer har pooned a largo whale, but it made a furious attack on the boat and bitit completely in two. fortunately, none of the crew were injured, and they were speedily picked up by another boat. The shipkeeper ran down with the ship to save the stoven boat. One or tne sailors named George Reeves volunteered to go. overboard with a rope to secure the boat, but while in the water was seized with the cramp and sank to rise no more. March 15, captured a very large whale, and succeeded In getting it alongside, blowing a gale the whole time. Unfortunately, the fluke chain parted, and we lost it. Mr. Soverino, the second mate, became very ill, and we were obliged to make all sail for The Bluff for medical assistance.. Arrived at that port next day and sent Mr. Soverino ashore to the hospital, where ho died, after lingering three days. On the same evening of our arrival at The Bluff it blew a terrific gale, the ship dragging until abreast of Dog Island, when the cable parted. By this accident we lost our best anchor and the whole of the cable. Captured our eighth and last whale off the Solander Rock on April 7, making us 85 tuns of sperm oil for the cruise. On April 16 anchored at the Bluff, weighed again next day at noon, and had light winds until arrival at Akaroa. Lyttelton Times, April 22. •
