Nelson, and Picton at 1145 lastnight, bringing a large number of passengers. Left Manukau at 11 a.m. on the 20th, and arrived at Taranaki at daylight on the 21st; leaving again at 10 a.m., and entered Nelson harbor at 11.45 p.m. same night: left for Picton at 11 a.m. on the 22nd, and arrived alongside the wharf at 5.45 p.m.; leaving at C.SO, and arrived in Wellington harbor as above. Had heavy head swell crossing the Strait. , The Luna, which left Napier at 1. p.m. yesterday, had to take shelter under the Kidnappers in consequence of the strong southerly weather. The topsail schooner Jane Anderson arrived from Oamaru via AUday Bay yesterday, with 1400 sacks of grain, consigned to Messrs. TurnbuU and Co. She left Allday Bay on Monday evening last; experienced fine weather till the following night; thence to arrival, strong S.S.W. winds and heavy sea. Captain John Leith, of the barque Especulador, which put into port on Wednesday, through stress of weather, reports leaving the Kaipara Heads on Mon'day morning last; made Cape Egmont at noon the following day, and passed Terawiti at 6 am. on the 21st, when the wind hauled round to the southward, blowing a heavy gale. The weather getting dirtier, r and the vessel being unable to weather Cape Palliser, Captain Leith wore ship and ran into port for shelter. The Especulador will resume her voyage with the first shift of wind. The schooner Kaiuma cleared for Wanganui yesterday, with a large cargo of railway sleepers shipped by Messra. Tumbull and Co. The schooner Rose of Eden cleared outwards, in ballast, for Pelorus Sound yesterday. The severe knocking about that the Dido received during her voyage from Auckland, has necessitated a thorough overhaul, which is being assiduously carried on by the whole of the ship's company. Her stay in these waters will not be of long duration, as she proceeds to England via Melbourne, shortly to be paid •otd •;- She will be relieved by the Sapphire, which -vessel is on her way to this port, and whose arrival may be expected in about a fortnight hence. The ship Hannibal has not completed her ballasting yet, but, weather and circumstances permitting, she will sail for Newcastle about Sunday next. Messrs. Levin and Co. have received advices that the brig Frances Lewey sailed from New York for Wellington, via Dunedin, with a cargo of Yankee notions, on the 27th of May. We are glad to state that the health of the Collingwood Immigrants is generally improving, and that there are no fresh cases of sickness. About 100 of them will be released from quarantine as soon as possible, fifty of whom will be forwarded to the West Coast and Nelson. Another child has died, making in all three deaths amongst the children since they were landed at Somes Island. TESTIMONIAL TO CAPTAIN BLACK. We have much pleasure in publishing the annexed copy of a testimonial presented to Captain Black, of the ship Collingwood, by the emigrants now in quarantine on Somes Island. At a public meeting of the emigrants of the ship Collingwood (at present located cm Somes Island), it was unanimously agreed to address to Captain P. Black, of the ship Collingwood, a testimonial convey'ing to him the thanks and gratitude of the emigrants for the kindness and attention displayed on his part throughout the-journey. The passengers also desire to thank Captain Black for the repeated acts of kindness on his part to any case of sickness brought under his notice, feeling at the same time how poor a recompense this testimony is for the sympathy and kindness displayed. The passengers would desire further to state that they are perfectly satisfied with the manner In which the affairs of the voyage were conducted; and to express their thanks to the officers under Captain Black for their zeal and attention to duty under very trying circumstances, feeling satisfied also that the journey would have been much shortened only for light and unfavorable winds. Wishing Captain Black every prosperity in life, we subscribe our names hereto:—Timothy Harker, Alexander Angus, Thomas Golden, Fred McCormack, Edmund Lanning, William Walker, George Dixon, A. W.
