the fiairnadale (Victoria) paper publishes a letter' written by Mr George Barnes, of Christchurch, to his father, in the course?of which he says :—" My luck in not going by the Tararna is something wonderful. T went from Christchurch to go in her, and waited all day for her to sail until twenty minutes to six in the evening, when one of my mates here asked me to pay his fare to Melbourne and he would come with me. I put my hand in my pocket, saying that I had but £6, thinkMne I had £15, tjs , a £10 and a £5 note, but to my surprise I had paid away the £10 note for a £1 at the bank for the draft I was taking home with me, and as I had not paid for my passage, I intended coming to the bank, seeing after the cash, and going I by the next train to catch the steamer. But I was delayed so long that I missed her, lost the £10 note, and saved my life. That was the best spent money I ever parted with since I was born. Had. she gone away anywhere near the time advertised I'assuredly should have been in her. Two of my mates said she would sink as soon as I told them of the loss of the money."
