The vessel left Wellington at" 8.20, and on leaving the shelter of the harbor encountered a st<f»3 sou'-wester, wMch, accompa*i=K by showers of rain, blew throughout the trip, Taising big seas, which continued; until Lyttelton was reached. In spite of this, the Wahine, whose arrival at Lytelton was not expected till some hours •../■ later than usual, appeared outside tho moles at a-quarter to 7 on Saturday morning, and was borthed before 7, enabling •;";"■'• the passengers and) mails to connect with p-: v tho first express for the south.

MAORI RESUMES. THE DAMAGE SMALL. _ In order to make a thorough investigation of the injuries to the how of the ferry steamer Maori, as the, result of the eoilion with the New Zealand Shipping Company s c lmer Kuahine at Wellington on Saturday night, the Lvttelton Harbor Hoards diver (Mr M'Leah) was encased yesterday morning surveying the vessel ho low the water line. The diver renorte<l that even-thins: below the water linn was | intact, and that the bow rudder -had not sustained any material injurv, and this was subsequently borne out' by the rudder bi'iiig given ji trial. A hove the water line I the how shows distinct signs of the collision, more particular]v the stem oi' tlm bow. . The vessel is.' however, watertight, and the inspector of machinery reported that she was perfectly seaworthy. As the injuries are chietly' confined to above the water line, and owini; to the i :l<t that the Ix.w rudder "is ' unriarna u-ed. it has practically been decided to delay more extensive and permanent icpairs until the Maori isreadv tor Iter anniiai overhaul, probably in June The Ma,,ii left, last inghfas usual on her journey to Wellington.
