Of the voyage the-second officer reports':—Tho Matatua loft tho Royal Albort Dooks, London, 'on April 10, having on board a eoneral oargo for the:, ports of Auckland,' Wellington, and Timaru. Fine weather and variable, moderate broozos wore experienced to, Santa Cruz, Tensriffo, which port was signalled at 3 a.m. on April IG, and until the steamer crossed'tho Equator on April 22-. the weather continued ,fino and dear, with the usuaLmoderate north-east trade winds. The south-east trade winds-com-menced 'fresh, and culminated within throo days' steaming of Capetown to a strong galo. with a heavy head sea hnd sivell. Tho vessel shipped seas considerably, and her progress was impedod greatly throughout. At 7 p.nC on. May 4 Capetown was passed,' and after rounding the Cape of Good Jlope tho weather! moderated and became fine and clear, with pontic, westerly breezes. On crossing the meridians of tho' Crozct and ICorguolen : Islands foggy weather was '.oxporionced, and owing to ' tlio usual appcarnnco of ice in this region mode-' rate speed was maintained at intervals when the fog sot in thick. As tho vessol -proceeded further into the Southern Ocean the woathor cleared, but strong northerly giilos continued, with heavy seas running, causing the vessel to labour lioavily and malco 'very bad woathor of it.' From Cape Lccuwin"to the Tasman;, i?ea a strong persistent northerls gale .was oil-' countered, which,-on nearing Tosnialiiti,-bo; came a furious gale, with a tremendous" higlisen. Tlio vessol shipped liirko quiintities' of water, being greatly impeded in lior . daily progress, and as tho weather continued' thick Tasmania had to bo given a wide ; borth. Tho Matatua is cxpected to reach Wellington about next Thursday.
