It will be news to many of our readers to hearthat Captain Arthur has resigned command of the Warrimoo, and has been succeeded by Captain Perry, who was chief officer of the Miowera when the two boats were running between New Zealand and Australia. -

Mr Ernest Cleveland, an old Auckland boy, is now chief officer of the Miowera, and the latter vessel will iv all probability run between New Zealand and Australia until the charter of the Arawa expires.
