HUSSION SCHOONER DAYSPRING.
The Dayapring, the Presbyterian Missionary Societk's schooner engaged in religious •work at the Now Hebrides, lefb Sydney on April Ist for those islands. The Dayspring was in port three months, refitting and replenishing stores. The period nsually covers that known as the hurricane season at the New Hebrides The season this year has certainly been an eventful one. Several vessels were losb at the New Hobrides and ruin and desolation carried to many of the islands. The proximity of the New Hebrides to the Navigator Group, which takes in Samoa, is so close that it will be regarded as a most providential escape if the cyclone of the 16th instant is found to have missed the New Hebrides Group in its terrible coui'so. By the Dayspring there left the following missionaries : — The Rev. W. Bannerman, Rev. J. P. Paton, Rev. J. Gillin and the Rev. M. Smaille.
