A few days ago, at Cape Kidnappers, a piece of wreck and thwart of a boat were washed ashore. In the former were composition nails, and on the latter the name "Redgraves" burnt in. They are supposed to be portions of the Panama, brig, that foundered early this year between the Chathams and the East Coast of Kew Zealand.
Vessels from, seaward are now signalled at the Barrack Hill by means of flags of a temporary character. A more comprehensive code is nowbeing made by the pilot, particulars of which we hope to publish in our next. On Thursday morning a vessel was signalled as off Kidnappers, but she again disappeared. Next morning, she was at anchor in the same locality, exciting some curiosity as to her character — a whalei*, perhaps, or, possibly, a smuggler.
