BY TELEGRAPH

AUCKLAND, Thursday. Sailed: The Wellington, for South ; Tawera, for Lyttelton ; Cynthia, for Wellington ; and the Alary Webster, for Taranaki, Tlie s.s. Ladybird arrived from the South yesterday morning. She left Port Chalmers at 3.30 p.m. on the 2Sth, and experienced fine weather to Lyttelton, arriving there at 11. a.m. on the 29th ; sailed from Lyttelton at 2.50 p.m. on the 30th, and arrived alongside the Queen’s wharf at 7.30 a.m. yesterday, having had strong S.E. winds from Lyttelton. The s.s. Albion arrived from Melbourne, via the West Coast, yesterday morning, bringing a number of passengers and about 100 tons of cargo for all ports. She cleared Port Philip Heads at 4.4 S p.m. on the 23rd ult.; passed the Sisters at 9.20 a.m. on the 24th,. and arrived off Hokitika at 10.30 a.m. on the 2Sth, making the run in four davs and sixteen hours. Left Hokitika at 4.10, and arrived off Greymouth at 5.50 p.m. same day: left again at S.SOp.m., and arrived at Nelson at 3.30 p.m. on the 29th ; arrived at Wellington at 10.30 a.m. yesterday. Moderate northerly winds and fine weather to kelson; ’’From Nelson to Stevens Island strong gales from 25. W.; from thence, heavy gales from S.E., 'with high seas and deluge of rain. We have to thank Mr. y, purser, for our report and other favors. The Albion sails at 2 p.m. to-day for Melbourne, via The Bluff, taking the outward Suez mail. Two fore-and-aft schooners arrived from Lyttelton yesterday morning, viz., the Aspasia and Jessie. Both vessels brought cargoes of flour, &c. The barque Harriet Annitage having discharged her cargo of Canterbury flour, will sail, in ballast, for 2n ejvcastle shortly. The brig Robin Hood" is wind-bound, but will sail for Newcastle the flirt favorable opportunity. A topsail schooner arrived at dusk yesterday, and, anchored some distance off the wharf, but owing to the thick and dirty weather, she was unable to communicate with the shore, y The elements have been exceedingly boisterous for the last few days, wind, rain, thunder and Hghtning being experienced in most parts of the colony. Heavy rain fell in torrents during Wednesday night, and early yesterday morning the wind, which had been blowing from the N.N. W., veered round to the southward, from which quarter it blew with great force, accompanied by heavy rain and squalls. Trade in general, and shipping in particular, was almost at a standstill The s.s. Hawea was unable to take in cargo owing to the heavy rain, and in consequence her sailing was delayed until an early hour this morning. The steamers Stormbird and Egmont were also detained in port owing to the dirty weather outside, but will in all probability leave for their respective destinations to-day. Captain Edwin reports that it blew a strong N-W. and westerly gale at Grahamstown on Wednesday night, which still continues, and yesterday morning a heavy westerly gale had set in at Hokianga, Bay of Islands. The barometer still stands very low, and it is to be feared that we have not seen the worst of the present bad weather. Strange to say, however. Port Chalmers and Lyttelton have up to the present escaped, although on the West Coast of the Middle Island frightful weather is reported.
