The steamer Capo Breton, which'has ; visited New Zealand several times during the last three yoars, has again been chartered to load general cargo at New York for Melbourne, Sydhev, Auckland, Wellington, Lyttelton, and Port' Chalmers: According to the / "Lyttelton Times," Cajitain Newton, of tlie-Moana, in speaking of the fog signal, at Godley Head, stated that the sound of tho explosions could not be heard at sea . west, of N. 1-. W-, because tho sound would bo shut in by the outer head. Mr. A. L.
