WAKAXTJI'S ROUGH VOYAGE. The steamer Wakanui, due here on June 1 from St. John, via Australia and Auckland, arrived at Melbourne, after experiencing a rather rough passage. Leaving St. John on March 26 a tempestuous disturbance from the south-west was met on tho following day, and for four days alter the steamer was beset by the gale and mountainous seas. Tho vessel's decks were awash during tho whole of that time, and slio laboured heavily. Awning, spars, and many deck fittings were smashed and carried overboard, tlio forwnrd w&tch tower wsts damaged, tho bridge smashed an<". splintered, and the side-lights battered and bent. Members of tho crew were thrown violently to the deck as the vessel pitched in the seas, and 0110 of them, the ship's carpenter, was disabled for some time.

The Wakanui has on board SCCO tons of cargo for Australian ports, 2000 of which arc for Melbourne.
