Messrs N. Edwards aud Co.'s fine little steamer Charles Edward made her trial trip to-day, after having been laid up fur many months, during which time she was lengthened 16 feet, aud underwent extensive repairs and other alterations. The additions made to her has increased her carrying capacity by 36 tons, and she is now 125 tons measurement, besides which her passenger accommodation bas also been largely increased. The trial trip to-day was thoroughly satisfactory, as she covered the measured mile against the tide in Gmius osecs, aud with it Sniins oosecs, although she was by no means in good trim, being far too much down by the head. She steered remarkably well, aud on the whole has proved a great credit to MiBrown of the Anchor Foundry, under whose superintendence the alterations in her have been made. She will sail for West. Coast ports on Sunday morning *,\ith a large number of passengers, who are being brought from the South by the Hawea for transhipment to the Kumara goldiield. Uur telegrams inform us that certain wreckage, supposed to belong to the ship Lx Hogue of Loudon, has been washed ashore at Karamea. On looking over Lloyd's Register the only vessel we can fiud of that name is one of 1131 tons, built at Sunderland in 1855, belonging to Messrs JDevitt and Moore of London. In the European Mad of February 18 we fiud that on that day the La Hogue, 1131 tons, passed Deal, bound for Sydney, and that is the last record we have been able to discover of her. She would probably reach Sydney about the end of May, but of the port for which she sailed on leaving there wc have no information. The Wallace arrived at Wanganui early this morning, aud is expected back to-mor-row with a cargo of live stock consigned to iVIr Mabin, which will be sold by auction ou arrival. The Kennedy sailed for Greymouth direct yesterday afternoon with a large number of miners for the Kumara goldiield, her hold having been specially fitted up for their accommodation. The Taupo left Onehuuga for New Plymouth and N c .[ S0 [i yesterday afternoon. She is advertised to sail for the South at 7 a.m. fo-morrow. The Murray is still detained at Greymouth, where the Maori is also a prisoner. The Hawea will leave Wellington for Picton and Nelson to-morrow, arriving here on Sunday morning. She is advertised to sail for the North on Monday. The schooner Waitohai sailed last evening for Havelock. The schooner Uno arrived this morning from Adele Island with a cargo of stone. The cutter Dauntless arrived this morning from Tata Islands with a cargo of stone. The alterations to tlie steamer Tararuaate being proceeded with vigorously, and it is expected that ere two months have elapsed she will be afloat again. Experts say that through not giving her sufficient steam power she will not travel so fast as of yore. The harbor to-day presented oue of the most miserable sights that has been witnessed here for a long time past. All the wharves ■were entirely destitute of shipping, there being only a small coaster alongside the Commercial Wharf, and the sjeamer Charles Edward lying at the Albion, while the Government Wharf, as usual, was entirely deserted. Of vessels anchored in the stream there were none, not 'even the most diminutive. Altogether the harbor to-day wore a most deplorable aspect, and presented a most striking contrast to that of yesterday, when it was perfectly alive with vessels. The arrival of the ship Helen Denny is eagerlylooked for to fill up one of the numerous blanks in our harbor. The steamers Ringarooma and Wakatipu were to leave Wellington this afternoon at three o'clock, and, if so, a good race may be expected, though there can be little doubt as _o the result. The Wakatipu, laden as she lis with coal, and having just come oil" a long voyage, is no match for the Ringarooma, which is, perhaps, the smartest boat in the colonies. Should there be- a fair wind, the Wakatipu, being brig rigged, thereby showing a good spread <jf sail, will have a better chance.
