The 1.C.8.M. Company's 8.8. Airedale, Capt. Kennedy, left the Manukau at 7 a.m. on the 27th ult., and arrived at Taranald at 9 p.m. the same day; left again at 1 p.m. on the 28th, and arrived at Nelson at 7 a.m. on the 29th j left Nelson at 9*30 a.m. on the 31st, and arrived at Picton at B*3o p.m. the same day, whence she sailed three hours later, making the run across to Wellington in 5£ hours. Left Wellington at I*3o p.m. on the Ist instant, but owing to a tremendously heavy sea, was obliged to bring up within the heads, and did not get out till 7 o'clock in thfe evening; she experienced a heqd wind with a heavy head sea until within sixty miles of this port, where she arrived at 5 p.m. on the 2nd instant. ' Tfc ship Captain Cook, H. C. Cleaver, commander, anchored in Lyttelton harbour on Wednesday last. She left Gravesend-9th May and Spithead on the 17 th, having one chief cabin passenger, Mr. B. H. Nicholson, 18; second class, 86 in the steerage, and 369£ assisted immigrants : making a total of 408 souls, including crew. Six births are reported and 11 deaths; one, a young girl, from consumption, one elderly married woman from diptheria, one aged female from chronic bronchitis, one female from chronic disease and emaciation, one married woman from rupture of a blood-vessel on the brain, one seaman from softening of the brain, one middle-aged man from a series of epileptic fits, and four children from ordinary diseases. Fever or a malignant character, and, at one period, to an alarming extent, prevailed, but neither contagious nor infectious m its nature; no deaths occurred from this source. One case of smallpox oecured in a seaman, and which fortunately spread no further. Icebergs were encountered, August 6, m lat. 62*1 S., long. 87*61 E., and two or three heavy gale, one merging into a fearful hurricane, during which the ship wait crippled, to which circumstance must be doubtless ascribed a voyage more protracted than would otherwise have occurred. Owing to the overstraining of the chip, many of the passengers suffered inconvenience from wet t>ertbs. All the immigrants speak highly of their chief officer, Mr. Henderson, and nave testified their admiration of his character by presenting him with an address, and a purse of gold to purchase some kind of memento of them. This latter gift must be truly gratifying, inasmuch as the proceeds are the voluntary contributions of the pooler classes. The son of the Bev. Brßnckdale, of Feltaorpc Rectory, Norwich, died suddenly from rupture of a blood-vessel just before entering port—Communicated by the Surgeon-Superintendent. The Harriet'Armitage arrived in lyttelton harbor on Wednesday morning, with 74head of cattle and 170 sheep, ' from having loot six bullocks "and fifty sheep on the passage. The barque met with heavyS.W. gales forty miles north ot the heads,. then strong-ITE. winds j Laving made Cape Saunden, the weather came on thick; and she ran to the southward as toss Saddle Bill The' N.E. gale continued till Sunday last, when the Wind chopped to the southward, and she «i»in »n pa»fc Owe Saunders, with thick weather, arrivingin this portonthe 2nd inst.

the ill-fated Lord Worsley, wrecked there just twelve months to-day. At first sight the vessel appeared to be in precisely the same condition as when abandoned, but the delusion was dispelled as the Airedale drew near. It was then seen that from the mainmast aft nothing remained but the lower part of her hull. Her fore and mainmasts with yards across were still standing, but her ftmnel and mizenmast were gone. Her appearance to those who were in the unfortunate vessel at the time of the disaster—five of whom were on board the Airedale — called forth reminiscences of a mixed'character, and was a painful reminder of the fate of three who were in her when wrecked, and who have since met with a watery grave. Captain Bowden and a fireman named Flint, who wero lost recently in the Pluto, and poor King, who was drowned the other day at Taranaki, are the three persons alluded to. As the Airedale steamed down the coast, a number of natives might bo seen rushing about frantically —probably in' anticipation of a shelling, with which however,' they were not treated. —Nelson Colonist, Sept. 1.
