We regret th it an accident occurred to the Pretty Jane yesterday morning which necessit at rd her return to this port, and will probably detain her for about eight days. She here for Napier about one o’c lock yesterday morning, and when off Portland Island, her propeller was carried away—there being a strong head wind at the time. Captain Carey, finding that there was no alternative left him than to return to Gisborne, set all available sail, and the wind bring favorable, coupled vith the aid rendered by steaming, the boat arrived here about noon. It woul-l appear that the Jane hi going out on Monday night —or rather yesterday morning—struck her propeller against the rocks, whereby some of the blades thereof got cracked—hence the mishap. Capt. Otrcy telegraphed to Auckland yesterday for a new propeller, and with u nxjuesi that it should be sent hither by the Rosina (Mr Adair’s steamer) which is expected here to-morrow. On the arrival of the propeller the injury will be repaired by Mr. Dick of this town, who is perfectly conversant with such work. THE BRODICK CASTLE DISMASTED. By a cablegram which appears in the Sydney Morning Hsrdld, ol the 25th ultimo—for a copy of which, we are indebted to Capt. Stevenson, of the schooner Loch Lee—we learn that die fine ship Brodick Castle, bound from London to Auckland with immigrants, was towed into Fidmouth in a dismasted condition on the 20th October. Relative to this ship, we have gathered the following particulars :—The Brodirk Castle is a magnificent iron riipper ship of 1775 tons register. She was chartered by Messrs Shaw, Savill and Co., and has on board a large number of immigrants, whose names have of course not reached us. Although her hold is filled with cargo, she is of such capacious build that she has over 1500 tons on board. The Brodick Castle, we have little doubt, fell in with heavy gales in the Bay of Biscay, and was there dismasted. The telegram says nothing of any accident to her passengers or crew, so that we may almost conclude.that no harm has happened to them. The accident is likely to delay the arrival of the ship for fully a month, while it is possible that her passengers may be transhipped into - another vessel.— Auckland Evening Star, Noi veuiber 5.
The Agnes Donald proceeds to Auckland, • via the coast, to day, weather permitting. She makes her first call at Whangaroa, to ship Mr Wallace’s wool (about 80 bales) for Auckland, . and then proceeds to Tuparoa, where she will - take on board some 40 bales of the same commodity, which awaits her there at Mr Milner s store. Yesterday morning about seven o’clock, the • cutter whilst proceeding to the barque Lochnagar, grounded on the rocks, near Archdeacon William’s house, but we are glad to hear that she is not likely to sustain any damage.
