ThoTyser Company's s.s. Hawke's Bay received the last of her Napier car»*o lact night at about 10 o'clock, and immediately after steam.d fin, Lyttelton, her final port in the colony before leaving for Loudon. The following is a summary of her Napier cargo ; shipped by William- and Kettle (limited), 13,9.0 frozen sheep, 0,708 legs mutton, 558 haunches mutton, 900 lambs, 90 casks pelts, 20 case, tinned meats, 355 sacks grass-seed, and 3 cases tomato sauce ; from Bichard-on and Co., 226 sacks wheat; from Farmers' Co-Operative Association, 451 Backs grass-seed ;*from N.Z. Loan and Mercantile Agency Coy, G3O sacks graßSBeed. The 8,8. Kiwi, Captain Campbell, arrived in the bay at one o'jlock this morning, and is to-day landing her cargo from Wellington, which consists principally of transhipments per Arawa. She leaves tho wharf at 5 p.m. this afternoon on her return journey, intending to call at several coast stations on her way down. Tne s.s. Ahuriri, Capt. Tonkin, took in a full cargo for Blackhead, and steamed from the wharf at about 10 o'clock last night. If the beach is found to be smooth, she can be expected to return to-night. The s.s. Result was taken across to Mr Northe's slip yesterday, where sho will undergo a thorough overhaul. The -New Zealand Shipping Company's barque Mataura is now on her way from London to Auckland. Captain Worster, formerly chiof officer of the s.s. Tekoa, is now in command.

Messrs Cranby and Prebble report having effected the sale of the fishing boat Bella Mary to Mr J. A. Harding, of Gisborne, who intends to utilise her for fishing in Poverty Bay. She is is an exceedingly smart little craft, and will no doubt give her new owner every satisfaction. The s.s. Fairy is loading to-day for Arapawanui, and will leave during the night. Sho tafces a quantity of station requisites. The barquentine Pendle Hill is expected to be ready for sea on Thursday afternoon. She takes a load of potatoes to Sydney. The s.s. Weka is loading for Te Apiti, and will probably get away thia evening. The s.s. To "Kapu steamed for Wairoa shortly aftor midnight, and arrived at her destination early this morning. Sho is expected to return late this evening, bringing a cargo of flax, which will be transhipped to the Senator early to-morrow morning. The ship Senator is expected to finish loading to-morrow morning, and will at once cloar at the Customs for London. She will probably sail to-morrow evening if the wind is favorable, and we wish Captain Smith, with his officers and crew, a quick and pleasant passage Home. The s.s. Orowaiti arrived at Westport from here last night at 10 o'clock. The ship Wellington arrived at Lyttelton last Saturday week from London after a fine weather passage. Bbo has a large quantity of cargo for Napier on board, whioh she is expected to bring up after discharging her Lyttelton portion. Tho following is an account of her passage out:—The Wellington left the East India Docks on Saturday, December 19th, at _ a.m., and had light S.E. winds down the Channel. Landed the Channel pilot on the afternoon ot Monday, December 21st. Light S.E. winds prevailed till Christmas Day, when she got a S.W. gale, which carried her down to Cape Finisterre, from whence to Madeira, which was passed on January stb, light S.W. wiuds and fine weather was experienced. "Variable weather was met with till 20deg N., when tho N.E. trades wero fallen in with, which, being good, carried tho ship down to 4deg N, and gave out on January 17th. ' From 4deg N to the Equator beautifully fine weather was experienced, and the ship passed inside tbe Cape Verde Islands. The Equator was crossed on January 23rd in longitude __, and here the S.E. trades were picked up, and lusted for eight days. They ■ were very light, and gave out when the ship was about 20d.gr s. From this point till tho island of Tristan d'Acunha was sighted light easterly winds and fine weather were met with. On February 13th the first of the westerlies was obtained, and the next day three British frigates, which were evidently making for the Cape of Good Hope, were passed. Crossed the meridian of Greenwich on February 15th, and after rounding tho Oape had strong westerly and unsettled weather. On March Ist was abreast of Kerguelon Island, and had light easterly wind and dense fog for thirteen days. Cape Leuwin was abreast'-on March 19th, and Tasmania on March 26th. Passed tho Snares on Monday, March 30th, with strong westerly winds. Capt. Cowan reports that he did not sight a single outward bound ship during the voyage. Three homeward bounders were passed, one of which was the Brilliant from Sydney to Liverpool. Capt. Cowan has associated with him as first officer Mr R. Newby, Mr Barclay being second, and Mr Wesley third. Mr Crawford, who is well known here, having mado eight consecutive trips in the Wellington, is in charge of tho refrigerating engines, Mr Drew being second engineer. She brings about 1300 tons of cargo, consisting principally of iron and cement, and should be ready to leave Lyttelton for here in a day or two-

The Tekapo arrived at the Bluff from Melbourne via Hobart last night. She has no passengers for Napier.
