Tho departure of tho Defender for Hokitika lias been postponed to Holiday. Mr. E. O. Young has joined a Union Company's steamer aB third officer. Ono of tho most accurate and effective surveys over made of the lower harbour haß just been completed by tho Harbour Board's pilot staff and engineering etaff working in conjunction with each other h:\ya tho Uuncdin "Star"). A feature of this new survey is that the harbour has been laid out into clearly deflued sections, marked by poles driven at measured intervals, so that in future any portion of the harbour may be sounded and plotted on tho chart with the minimum of difficulty and the maximum of accuracy. This survey was carried out. in compliatico with the chairman's request, of an.exhaustive report on the state of the navigable portions of the. harbour, in order that tlie effect of tho recent cessation of harbour dredging operations might bo ascertained.
