Various rumors were current on Saturday last that the Coomerang had broke her back in attempting to cross the Ngakawhau b.tr. On Sunday special news came in, and these are the facts related: —The bar has shoaled considerably, and the current in the creek is falling. On attempting to get out on Saturday the Coomerang got on a rock in midstream, and ran some risk of hanging there until the tide fell. Fontunately she got off, and went back to her moorings in the pool facin"- the mine. She has about fifty tons of coal aboard, and Captain Hughes had some idea of throwing a part of the cargo overboard ■and attempting to get out, but has foregone ■the intention, and will wait until the next springtide helps him to get out again, never move to run his craft into such doubtful anchorage. The p.s. Wallace moored yesterday at the Co' den street wharf at 9.30 a.m., having left. Nelson at 10 a.m. on Sunday. Sie brought a number of passengers for southern ports, including a lot of Chinese and some nominated .emigrants.
The Charles Edward left Wanganui at M 0.30 a.m. on Sunday for Westport, and arrived here at 3 p.m. yesterday, making a (smart run of about 28 hours, and bringing her freight of cittle without the slightest loss.
