The schooner Amaranth which was wrecked on Sunday, was insured in the South British Office for £SOO. On behalf of the underwriters, Captain Sutter paid a visit of inspection to the scene of the wreck this morning. He found the vessel completely broken up. We h-vve received the May number of the ‘‘New Zealand Protestant.” As a proof that this new venture is growing in popular appreciation wc learn that since its commencement, although only in its third number its circulation has increased by one half. Mr J. Herman, tobacconist (whose Derby sweep was filled up to the brim), announces a consultation on the N.Z, Grand National Steeplechase and Hunt Club Cup, to be run at Timaru on the Queen’s Birthday, May 24 next. The fee is 10s and this entitles the investor to a chance of winning two prizes.
