NELSON.
Sunday night.
The Resident Magistrate at Collingwood sent a special messenger to Motueka from whence was telegraphed word that a vessel, the Messenger, was at the Spit, four miles west of the lighthouse. Two boats left for the vessel at ten this morning and proceeded round the spit in the direction of Kelson. The lighthouse keeper boarded the ressel and found no one on board.
A heavy storm, accompanied with rain, was experienced in the neighbourhood of Nelson to-day. The lower portions of the town are inundated, and there have been many landslips on the hill side, but no serious damage sustained.
