ARATAPU'S ROUGH PASSAGE. 1 Ihe barquenline A ratapu arrived in Greymouth on Sunday from Lyttelton after the unusually long trip of 27 days, navrng met with head winds and adverse conditions practically all the way. It seemed, too, for a time, as if ill-fortune would attend her even when she had reached port, for owing to a mishap she, was within an ace of being piled un at the spot where' the Hawca came to grief. As the vessel was being towed in by the tug >\ est-land n- heavy v/uh making on the bar, and just when she got between the moles the tow-line parted. All sails were down, and it looked as if the barquentine's doom were sealed. The master, Captain "Williams,. however, was eoual to the occasion, and by his promptitude, coolness, and quickness undoubtedly saved his vessel from destruction. He got a canvas up with wonderful celerity, and managed to regain control of the" vessel until another tow-line was got aboard from the tug, after which the danger was over and she was safely towed to her berth at the wharf. The harbor master, Captain Cox, and the crew of the tug also deserve every credit for the manner in which thco dealt with a trying and unexpected emergency (says the Greymouth ‘Star’).
