Apropos of this, somo would-be mariners at the Spit contend that the goods found thero could not be part of the Assayo's cargo, as the vessel would not so anywhere near tho Islands, but they "forget that tho barque may have got into trouble hundreds of miles away, and her remains drifted on to tho Chathams.

As some confusion appears to exist as to tho personality of the several Captains Roberts who have traded to this port, it is as well to state that Oaptain Arthur F. Roberts, who is now supposed to be lost in the missing Shaw-Savill liner Dunedin, at One time commanded the ship Trevelyan, which was lost near Cape Agulhas on the first vovajro which Captain W. Roborts (son of Captain D. T. Roberts, well known in the Hermione for many years) made after he had been appointed to her command. Captain Arthur Robers has v son who is sailing as a master, but ho has not traded with this colony recently. — Auckland Herald. Tbe Waihora and Tekapo left Sydnoy for New Zealand yesterday.
