Captain Bendall saw nothing of the Star of the Evening, which left here on the forenoon of Tuesday last. The Phoebe, steamer, left Auckland on Sunday evening, called afc Tauranga, and left there on Tuesday morning, She would be^off Portland Island next day, and has doubtless gone on to Wellington, the Captain being deterred from entering Hawke's Bay by the thick weather.
