The Detachments of the 12th. — The cutters Dolphin and Tay have been taken up to bring to Napier the Wairoa detachment. The Waipawa detachment is expected in town on Thursday next. The Lord Ashley, on the 2nd prox , will probably take both away, together with a large quantity of military stores. The English Matl left behind through the " Phoebe" not calling, was, we are happy to learn, forwarded by next steamer via Panama. That is to say, the letters were ; also newspapers marked via Marseilles, together with a few others addressed to newspaper editors at home. With regard to the latter, if the Advertise?' is correct in saying that the Government has to pay 3d to the Railway company for every newspaper that crosses the Isthmus, more than what has been done could not be expected. Wellington. — A large mail from Wellington, with dates to the Bfch inst., was received on Friday by the Lord Ashley, via the West Coast and Auckland, A southern mail is received by that route on the same day in each month. Meanee Mail.- — We continue to hear complaints about this mail being only a weekly one, with a conveyance running twice a day. The inland townships to the southward might also, we think, be better ! served in the matter of 'inland communication.
