The detiih occurred at Dover at the age oi eighty of Captain Bennett, who retired from the South-eastern and Chatham _ fateamihip . service in\l69S, when lie was senior cap .am. I Ho had been in the-service of the company fifty-tbreo ye-ars, and had crossed the Chance, 80,000 times. ' ~ , . , There will be a heavy hat of arrivals at . .Lyttelton to-day, and the port, from parativo emptiness of last week, will be transformed into a temporary entre of great shipping activity. Three Hom.y boats, the Kalmar a. from.

Sac will make Wellington her final port, and is to sail for West of England on July 6. In’ moving tho adoption of th© report at the annual meeting ot the Shaw, Saviil and Albion ‘ Company tue chairman (Mr E. Pembroke) made reference to iho new cargo ' steamer ' which ill© company is having built by Messrs Workman and Clark. The now vessel is to take the place, of the old steamers Pakeha and Rangatira, which are becoming too small for the trade. It was pointed ' out that the ship "Westland, the last of the company’s sailers, had been sold for, more . than she was :valued at on tno company s shipping firms have been taking t good deal of interest in the proposal .0 navi a Targe new dry duck ut !Leiih. dhe longest dry dock now existing at the port will on.y take vessels of 380 ft. This is much too small even for local requirements, and West Coas; owners find that they cannot depend on dry- ; docking facilities when their vesse.s happen r - to require these on the East Coast. If the (support of Glasgow is of any_ vame to the Leith Dock Commissioners in tnoir end;avour to provide a large graving dock for tno port, it may be relied on. At Aberdeen there is a proposal to construct a floating dock at a cost 'of £61,700. Aberdeen is hrdiy in need o; docking facilities for the many fishing craft that now use i:s harbour. : The cargo sleamor Stralhord, from ucboue (New Caledonia), arrived in the stream at Wellington at four o’clock on Saturday ’ afternoon -to replenish her bunkers. The vessel has a cargo of G2BO tons of cromo ore for -Hampton Roads, United States. Captain Leslie T. Mudio reported having en- ' countered rough weather from Now Caledonia to New Zealand. Following ia the "list of officers:—Chief, Mr W. E. Anderson; second, Mr W. Fortay; third, Mr George X. Nicoll; chief engineer, Mr D. Patiie. Iho crew numbers thirty-six, of whom twer.tyseven are Chinese. The Strathord is cn her maiden voyage, having proceeded from Home to Japan, thence to Changhai and New Caledonia. The Sirathord loaded about five hundred tons of bunker coal froin the Tyneside proprietary and continued her voyage the same evening. TELEGRAPH NOTICE BOARD.
