SHIPPING NEWS.

CAMBRIDGE FOR LONDON. NO SYDNEY STEAMER. The tonnage in port was considerably reduced by the departure yesterday afternoon of the cruiser Diomede for Wellington, the Iris for Bass Strait, the Waihemo for Wellington, the Glenbank for Ocean Island and the Port Pirie for London. The departure of the Cambridge, which was to sail for London at daybreak to-day, has now been postponed to this afternoon. There will be no passenger steamer from Auckland for Sydney to-morrow, as the Maunganui, now in port, is to lay up here until the second week in April. The Ulimaroa leaves Wellington to-mor-row for Sydney, but she is reported to be a full ship.
