AFTER UNEVENTFUL VOYAGE. I The schooner Bendixsen arrived from Paget Sound with a full cargo of Oregon pine, etc., consigned to Messrs. Webster Bros., on Thursday evening, and eame alongside the wharf early on Friday morning. It will be remembered that the Bendixsen made a similar trip about two years ago. Captain Thunell is still in command of the vessel, which had a lengthy but uneventful voyage. After leaving Puget Sound she ran into contrary winds and heavy gales—quite an unusual thing for October —which prolonged her trip, in fact she only mauc 300 miles in 22 days. She was in com- : pany for eight days, and for a distance of -400 miles, with" the American schooner Colombia, bound for Brisbane with a cargo of Oregon pine, also from Puget Sound. The officers and crew were all in splendid health, and, as on the occasion of her previous visit to the port the vessel was in a particularly "spick

and span" condition. Dr. Rex Brewster and the Customs Inive passed the vessel.
