NELSON.
This day.
The Tarnnaki arrived this morningAt seven o'clock last night, jwhen off Cape Farewell, a tremendous sea struck her on the starboard side, carrying away the two boats on the port side, and dashing one starboard boat against the engine room skylight. The whole of the railing round the poop is torn away, the cabin skylight is stove in, and the wheel smashed to pieces. The cabin was flooded and- the lights extinguished, but fortunately no one was'hurt. She had a heavy list to port owing to the coals shifting, and altogether she looked a complete wreck when coming into harbor. She will remain till to-morrow morning to repair damages.
