Captain fiobertson, of the Rotoiti, who has been on six months' leave of absence, has assumed command of the Afokoia. A. cording to the Westport Times, •work at the stranded Taviuni is prac"tieaily suspended, the men and gear being employed at the Hawca at Greynroutli.

The a* Karpara is at present loading in the Waitara roadstead.

The Kotoiti brought only 8 tons of cargo from south on Saturday morning. The smalraess of the cargo was due to the Coriuna having brought the Wellington cargo on Friday. Tlic Takapuna brought 40 tons of cargj) from Onehunga on Saturday. Tbis included 60 bags of cement, 260 bags of augir, and 51 case* of fruit. The Federal-Houlder-Shirc liner Devjn will call at Waitara, where she is line on the 21st inst. from the Bluff, for Homeward loading. The mysterious wreckage of tt vessel of about 100 tons register which was sighted by the Kapiti a few days ago off Kahurangi Point is believed (says the Dominion) to be the remains of the lost steamer Centennial. About November, 1006, the Centennial disappeared whilst bound from to Wellington. She had been purchased by Mr. J. Corry, jun., of Napier, and others, for use as a trawler Captain Corby, of the Kapiti, says that the wreckage seemed to have been a long while adrift. The mishap to the Maheno's highpressure main turbine, which was reported by cable, occurred two hours aftrr the vessel had cleared the Melbourne Heads on her way to Jfobart. Th« vessel is fitted with three propellers, and it was the centre one which stopped. The vessel was slowed a. few knots an hour as the result of one propeller being idle. The Maheno was delayed at Ifobart for about twelve hours while repairs were being effected. PROJECTED DEPARTURES TO-DAY. f'onnna, ?or .South, noon. Rarawa, for Onehunga, 8.30 p.m. EXPECTED ARRIVALS.
