Robinson, Skipworth, Porter, Mr. and Mrs. Blank, Bould, Carroll, Hamon, Richards, Nasmith, Dinwiddie, Parsons. English news 11 days from London, to hand by the Rangatira appears in to day’s issue. Tae s.s. Otago was to arrive at Dunedin from the Bluff yesterday with the inward Suez Mail. The s.s. Paterson is advertized to leave Wellington for Napier, and Poverty Bay yesterday. The Rangatira arrived in port at 11 o’clock a.m. yesterday. She was detained in Wanganui for two days owing to the slackness of the tides in the river. We have to thank Captain Lloyd for a prompt delivery of Southern files. The Rangatira arrived at Napier on Monday night at 10.30, and left again about 12 o’clock. The s.s. Rangatira left this port for Wellington on the 9th inst., but, to their great chagrin, intending passengers were informed on presenting themselves, that the Customs’ authorities strictly prohibited any passengers from travelling in the vessel until she had been subjected to an official examination at Wellington, by Mr. Nancarrow. After some cogitation, however, it was suggested that, by going through the process of signing articles and shipping in various capacities, the difficulty would bo solved. No objection being offered, the Rev. D. Sidey shipped as chaplain, Mr. Axup as assistant cook, Mr. Muckune as steward, and Mr. Munro and two others as assistant stewards, a most ingenious method of evading the regulations.— Hawke’s Bay Herald.
