The Herald says:— Among the passenger's by the outgoing mail were Pastor Chiniguy and his prirate secretary, M. Parent The Pastor, informed us that his New Zealand mission had been highly successful, both pecuniary and otherwise, the proceeds being £1600. Not a single member of his committee was on the the wharf, to bid him adieu, and his departure was a marked contrast, in this respect, to his arrival, when hundreds lined the wharf at the same early hour (2 a.m.) to greet his adrent. The Pastor goodhumoredly apologised for their absence by saying that in some instances the fir© had gone out, in others that they were reposing in the bosoms of their families, while several of t.ito most energetic had been seized with sudden and .■erere indisposition. The religious aspirations of the passengers by the City of .New York will surely be gratified, if variety can accomplish it, as, in addition to the Pastor, she carries Bishop Kedwood, and a number of Mormon conrerts, who hare been seized with a " spirit of gathering," and are bound for the Salt £ake.
