A KETCH IN DISTRESS.
(By Telegraph.—Press Association.) LYTT:>a.TOX, this day. The ketch Lily, bound from Little Akaloa to Lyttelton, had her sails ripped, and dragged her anchor, off Decanter Rock last night. She burned blue lights, and was picked up by the tug Canterbury at three ajn. and brought to Lyttelton safely. A strong S.W. wind, and hail and rain, have detained the steamers from the North, to-day.
