A chronometer true on Greenwich time would show 12h. SOrnin. when the ball drops. Any difference is error, plus or minus, of the chronometer. The s.s. Wanaka, from Lyttelton and Port Chalmers, wUI arrive here this morning. She will leave for Picton, Nelson, New Plymouth, and Manukau tomorrow afternoon. The s-s. Arawata, which arrived at the Bluff yesterday, with the Suez mail, is expected to reach this port on Thursday next. The departure of the steamer Kiwi for Castlepoint and Napier has been postponed till this afternoon. The ketch Thomas and schooner Star of the Sea, timber laden from Pelorus Sound, have arrived in port since Sunday evening. The s.s. St. Kilda sailed for Wanganui at 8 o’clock last evening. The Stonnbird has cleared out at the Customs for Napier. She has a large cargo, but no passengers are mentioned in her manifest. The steamer Rotorua, after discharging her cargo lrmn Sydney and Auckland, left the wharf yesterday afternoon at 2.30 p.m. for Lyttelton and Port Chalmers. At 4.30 p.m. a steamer was signalled at the flagstaff as having anchored the Heads, and as no other steamer left the harbor yesteiday it is presumed that the Rotorua is the vessel that anchored. Probably the very heavy southerly sea which was rolling in at the Heads yesterday prevented her from going out. She was still at anchor up to dark. The s.s. Hawea. from the North, is expected to arrive here this morning. She will sail South in the afternoon. The s.s. Napier left Blenheim at 12.30 a.m. yesterday, and arrived here at 8 o’clock last evening. The Napier will sail for Blenheim again this evening. The steamers Manawatu from Wanganui, and Jane Douglas and Tai from Foxton, are expected to arrive here this morning. The ship Orari having discharged her portion of powder for this port, came up to the wharf yesterday afternoon, but the tide ebbing before she could get alongside, she grounded, and was consequently unable to be berthed at the wharf yesterday. At an early hour this morning, however, she hauled into her berth at flood tide. It is anticipated that she will commence discharging to-day.
