Napier will leave for Blenheim at 8 o’clock this morning. The s.s, Tui, from Kaikoura and Lyttelton, is expected to arrive here to-night. The s.s. Stormbird sailed for Wanganui yesterday afternoon. The schooner Star of the Sea and ketch Thames from Pelorus Sound arrived here yesterday. The p.s. Wallace, with a cargo of wool and tallow from Blenheim, arrived in port yesterday at Ba. m. She crossed the Wairau bar the same day, and experienced tine weather across. The Wallace left for Blenheim and Nelson at 10 o'clock last night. The p s. Manawatu, with 100 sheep on board, arrived in harbor from Wanganui at 9 a.m. yesterday. She left there at half-past 7 o’clock the previous evening, and experienced tine weather throughout. The steamer Luna, from Greymmith, will probably arrive in port this evening. She left there at 7.30 a.m, yesterday. The topsail schooner Spec and ketch Agnes took advantage of a light southerly wind yesterday and sailed for Pelorus Sound. The s.s. Rangatira reached this harbor from the East Coast at 11 a.m. yesterday. She commenced her return trip for Poverty Bay at 6 p.m. on Wednesday last, and got into Napier at 6.15 a.m. on Thursday. Discharged cargo, passengers, mails, etc., and sailed same day at 10.45 a.m., and arrived in port as mentioned above. Experienced head wind and calm sea during the run. The Rangatira will leave for Napier this afternoon. With regard to the detention of the Zealandia, we gather from the agents, Messrs. Levin and Co., that the ve-sel arrived at Rio about Ist August, and that they received from Messrs, Shaw, Savill, and Co., a letter dated 3rd August, in which it was stated that the vessel would only be detained at Rio a fortnight, and that the i-argo had suffered no damage. As the run from Rio to this port, under favorable circumstances, would take about sixty days, it is expected the vessel will arrive before the 20th instant; but it will be postsible to estimate more accurately when it is known on what day the Zealandia left Rio, and a telegram giving this information the agents expect to receive at any minute. A three-masted schooner from the North was signalled yesterday, and it was at once set down-to be the May, from Foochow, which is now due here ; but when the vessel roun !ed the point it was soon perceived that she was a stranger, a fact which caused no little disappointment to a number of people who are anxiously awaiting the arrival of the May. The schooner anchored at 1,30 p.m., and proved to be the Garibaldi, from Lyttelton, with a full cargo of produce. The Garibaldi is a peculiar looking craft, and was never intended for a sailing vessel, as is at once evident by the proportion of the beam to the length, and also her alruo.st sheerless hulk. She was originally constructed for a steamer, and was employed for some time on the West Coast as a tender to Messrs. McMeckan, Blackwood, and Co.'s steamers. However, she managed to get ashore, and remained there for some time, when she was floated off and repaired, and converted into a sailing vessel. Her name at the same time was changed from Yarra into the one she now possesses. Since then she has been employed on the coasts, principally those of the Middle Island. The Garibaldi carries no square canvas. She left Lyttelton on Saturday afternoon last, and experienced light northerly winds and calms up.
