ARBIWL OF THE SHIP PAREORA FROM LONDON* The N.Z.S. Co.’s ship Pareora, Captain Power, arrived in harbor yesterday afternoon, being towed in from the Heads by the steamer Wellington.

She ; s a smart looking vessel of 879 tons, and is a stranger to this port, Her passengers all appeared to be in good health, and express the greatest satisfa -tlon at the kindness of Captain Power and his officers during the very tedious passage.

The Pareora will haul alongside the wharf to-day, and commence discharging on Monday. ARRIVAL OF THE SHIP PLEIONE FROM LONDON. The dipper ship Pleione. Captain Reliant, which we repo-ted on Thursday at anchor at the Heads, was towed into harbor by the steamer Wellington yesterday morning. She brought up off the powder-ground, ns she has some 12 tons of cartridges and ammunition on board for the Government.
