MISCELLANEOUS. SoroD amusement w»s caused at tho Cuitom-house on Saturday) (by the annouucoraent in a contemporary that thirty-three hogsheads of rum, ■sunk below water-mark, from one of the ships in harbour, had been seized by the Customs Wo need hardly say that thero was not a word of truth in it Tht editor lias surely forgotten his own precept, tint " intelligence to be acceptable to the public must be correct as well u now." The Melbourne brigantine Killermont, which lias just been put on the coasting trade at this port, sailed for Tutukaka on Saturday, in order to bring down a cargo of piles for the new wharf.

Ballarat, which was wrecked on the East Coast, are progressing satisfactorily. A large number of machinists have been engaged laying her bottom plates, which are entirely new ; and when completed, the vessel will doubtless well repay her owner for the large outlay he has incurred. The brie Lady Alicia, Pluckhart, which arrived here about a fortnight ago. with a cargo of coals, for Messrs. Henderson and Macfarlane, entered outwards at the Customs on Saturday, for Christmas Island ; and will probably sail to-day or tomorrow. ' The new schooner Jane, built to the order of Captain D. Sefcirs, by Mr. Niccol, for the coasting trade, has been permanently put on the trade between Tauranga and Auckland, and having taken on board a large general cargo, and nine soldiers of the 68th Regiment, left the wharf for Tauranga on Saturday nltrht The schooner Success, Frost, master, hauled a'ongsldo the brigantlno Union on Saturday, and took on board 30 torn of coal. She is advertised to leave for Napier this day. The barque Allct Cameron, Captain Nearing, is alongside the wharf laden for Sydney, and will leave for that port tomorrow. The brig Fakcha, Robinson, master, has finished discharging cargo, and is open for freight or charter to any part of the world. The p.i. Novelty, Captain Quanc«, embarked the residue of tho immigrants, per Lancashire Witch, on Saturday morning, numbering somo forty families, and proceeded to Pulliser Say, where the immigrants were debarked about noon. They will at present bo located at Point Chovalier. The p.s. Novelty has been beached at Mr. Beddocs's yards, North Shore, for the purpose of undergoing extenslvo alterations and improvements in her hitherto limited cabin accommodation.
