Advice has been received that tho Australian barque Laura, which was recently sold for the New Zealand-Australian trade, in about to havo her nam© changed to Millw Virginia, after tho owners daughter. Captain Schutze, late of the Opouri. is in command of tbo vessel, which is reported to bo loading at Sydney for a New . port. It is not known locally what port she is going to visit, but it will piobably bo Auckland. . „ Tbo Huddart-Parker Line's steamer Kiverina left Sydney on Thursday afternoon for Wellington, where fiho is duo thismorning. She comes on to Lyttelton on Wednesday norning, and leaves on her return in tho even in". , , _ _ On her mai-len voyage, the cargo C.ogovale. running under the A. and A. flag, left New York on the 3rd December for Wellington. via Prnama Canal. She mil ? rrl 7® ai Wellington about January 12th, and will then go on to Auckland and Australia'. *Mr R. Lewis has joined the Maori as second engineer in placo of Mr G. i.illa, who j will join tho Takapuna. as chicf engineer. RAUPO SAILS. After being iu port a, few weeks from San Francisco, the barquo Raupo (ex Louisa Crai") left iLyttelton on Saturday morning with a load of produce for Auckland. Her future movements arc uncertain, although it probabLo that she will go next to Australia, During tho past few days tho vessel has been short of her full complement of sailors, and those that could be foiuid to fill the positions put a high value on their services. However, aa the vessel was ready for Boa, and as the owners did not wish her to be delayed, the men, it is understood, had their terms accepted. It 13 stated that four sailors who signed on for the run between Lyttelton and Auckland aro to receive £15 each when they reach tho Northern port. Provided the Raupo makes a good passage, and ahe is likclv to do so, seeing that is one of the "fastest vessels of her class in Australasian w&ters, and that she was docked during her atav in port, this rate of pay, so far as the men themselves aro concerned, should bo considered highly satisfactory. With good weather, the Raupo should reach i Auckland early next week. | SHIPPING AND MAILS. (By Cable. —Press Association. —Copyright.)
