Waipara arrived from Wanganui yesterday morning, and sailed the same tide for Brighton, with a large portion of the original ov "v &e.., the property of Mr Crocker. V. e received no files of Wanganui papers so can jdre no further information in reference to the gold hcax at Waitotara. The Waipara is announced to sail this morning for Mokihinui. The Ada, schooner, after a rather long sojourn in the river has been despatched to Mokihinui for coal. She is a vessel well adapted for the trade and will, we believe, be retained in it.
