Captain Kennedy, of the. s.s. Easby. has resigned command of that vessel in Dunedin. His place has been filled l»y Captain .Anderson, who came down from Australia. The p.s Manawatu, Captain Harvey, left Wanganm at 8.15 p m. on Monday; crossed the bar at B o'clock, and arrived here at . 11.S0 a.m. yesterday. Experienced fresh westerly wind, with beam sea, throughout. The Manawatu will sail again for Wanganui to-day. The'Kiwi came round from the Patent Slip yesterday, after receiving a thorough overhaul, and sailed for the East Coast in the evening.The Floral Star finished the discharge of her cargo on Monday, a d hauled from the wharf yesterday. She has received quick despatch in this port, putting out the whole of her cargo of bark and flour in two days. Her. cargo turned out in prime condition. ...The a.s. Tararua-sailed for Sydney via the West Coast yesterday afternoon at 4.30. : , -, ; The Government steamer Stella left at 5 a.m; yesterday for Westport. ' - • ' ' . jTha s.s. Rangatira left for Napier and Poverty Bay at '6 o'clock .last evening. The barque Marie, from New York via Port Chalmers was spoken by the Manawatu outside the Heads yesterday morning, and wished to be towed into port, but the two captains were unable to come to any "arrangement. The barque beat inside the Heads yesterday afternoon, and came to an anchorage; In all probability she will come into port this morning. - The Newcastle trader, the brig Neptune, arrived in harbor at 2 o'elockyesterday afternoon, after a smart passage of,nine days, having experienced northerly winds throughout.- On bringing up in the harbor the anchor by some' mismanagement, got foul and could not be let go. The consequence was that she ran in. past the outer T of the wharf to windward, > and being caughlt In a line stretched from the cable Bteamer Agnea to a buoy, was brought sharp up. The anchor was then'let go, but before it could get a hold the vessel drifted down on to the bows of the Tararua, and carried away a portion of her own gear and damaged the bulwarks. The steamer sustained no iijuxy, but heir jibbooni had to be taken in before the brig could be hauled clear. The ship Rakaia, was outside the Heads yesterday, from London." She was all day beating towards port against a strong N.W. wind, but had not shown .up when we went to press this morning. She will no doubt get in to-day, , , The schoone* Aurora, from Pahau, arrived here yesterday. She left there on Friday last, and had hard N.W. wind throughout. The Union Company's s.s.
