AUCKLAND.
• ' This day. The schooner Samoa, from Fiji, brings intelligence of the drowning of Allan Baillie, formerly Warden of the Thames, off the Island of Mokogai. He had purchased the schooner Beatrice and left Levuka for Mokogai, when a squall struck her, she careened over and sank. Baillie and two Sandwich Islanders clung to the scuttle but were washed about. The natives tried to sustain him, but he became exhausted, released his hold, bade the natives " good bye," and sank. A concert has been got up in aid of his family.
