The brigantine Sarah Anne sailed from Melbourne on the loth instant, but meeting light contrary winds down the bay, she came to inside the heads for the night. Got under weigh next morning with a fresh westerly breeze, which carried her through the Straits that day, and held good between N.W. and S.W. until the 21st instant. It then veered into^Tf .E. and fell light, and hence to the land ■which wns sighted on the 25th instant, variable weather prevailed. Very light easterly breezes kept her in the offing until 'yesterday, when she picked up the sou-wester that then commenced, and arrived in the roadstead in time to save tide. She was towed in by the Challenge. The Sarah Anne is loadet ■with general cargo, and has a deck load cf shee; 193 in number. Gibson's Quay in part recovered its ■wonted appearance yesterday, shipping business being again resumed on the close of the Government holiday . Discharging the Jane Lockhart was proceeded with, and by knock off timo she waa pretty trail clour of ourgo, And * vill probably sail ior Sydney either to-day or to-morrow. The arrival of the Sarah Anna outside gave employment to the tug Challenge which got steam up and secured the prize, towing her to the wharf on the first ebb. The ba? is reported to be in good wording order. The Pilot arrived too late to be towed in ou that tide. The Greymouth tug Dispatch steamed into the roadstead yesterday afternoon having come up we imagine expecting to secure the Pilot. That vonsel however is consigned to Messrs Spence Brothers, and will therefore be attended lo \>v the Challenge. The tilt t, a heavy brigauliue and a stranger in these waters sailed down 5-om the S.W. yesterday afternoon, and came to otf the b .r. She wp.s communicated with by signal, and •will tow in on to-day's tide. The steamer Bruce left the river yesterday for Fox's -.md the Buller with about a dozen passengers and a few tons of cargo.
