Hamlin, junr., now loading ab the Railway Wharf for New York, is receiving quick dispatch ab the hands of Messrs Arnold, Cheney and Co., and will be ready for sea 5n aboub three weeks' time. It has been decided that' owing to the lack of freights the wellknown barquentine Elinor Vernon will not come on to this port. Owing to telegraphic communication being interrupted with Gisborne, no advice of the Talune can come through. Ib appears that) she landed her passengers ab Napier yesterday, bub could nob take off the outward ones, The Talune will probably nob call ab Gisborne, bub come etraighb on to Auckland, arriving here •arly to-morrow morning.
