PATEA.
October 16
A more minute examination of the Btearaer Wakatu at low water shows the damage to be more exteneive than was at first expected. Besides a large jagged bole in the starboard waist, an open crack extends several feet throngh the plate on either side, and probably a week will be occupied in making temporary repairs, after which she will be sent to Welling--ybon and put on the slip. Most ot her cargo consists of perishable goods, and will be rendered utterly worthless. The directors of the company contemplate removing the steamer from the trade.
