The Wild Duck left Greymouth for Onehunga yesterday with a cargo of coals for Mr J. W. Waller. The Fiery Cross left Napier in ballast yesterday for Tairua to load timber for Moeraki. The brigantine Omaha, after being detained several days by contrary winds, made a start for New Caledonia this morning at sixo'clock. The wind at the time was still from the N. E. and the vessel had to beat her way out of the harboiir, The Rowena, s.s., left for the Bay of Islauds at tier usual hour last nieht, with a full complement of cargo and passengers. The s.s. Southern Cross, Captain Sellers, left this morning early for Tauranga. The s.s. Hero has been anxiously looked for during the day, but up to the time of going to press had made no sign. It seems now as if she had been detained at the other end beyond the day she was announced to sail. Perhaps his new Excellency hadn't finished packing-up. The barque East Lothian, after discharging her cargo is to load timber and sleepers for Lyttelton. Mrs La Trobe and five children, Messrs J.
