ARRIVAL OF THE PICARD. The Picard, brigantine, Captain Grifiths, left' Hobart Town on the 30th April. Had fair wind until the 7th July, when the wind hauled round to the E. and N.E., with heavy gales. Had.to heaveto for thirty hours, shipping much water, which filled the cabin and spoiled some stores. Wind afterwards veered round to N W. Made the Three Kings at 6 a.m. on the 14th. Had fine weather down the coast, and anchored at noon on the 16th. The Bella Mary was on the berth for Auckland when the Picard left ARRIVAL OF THE BARQUE ANNE AND JANE. The barque Anne and Jane, Captain Smitih, arrived on Saturday last from Waihiki, where she had been loading timber for Sydney. She bas on board for that port 180,0 0 feet sawn junk and plank, and will leave on Wednesday next. While anchored off Waiaki, she experienced some very heavy gales ; and on the 9th dragged her anchor some considerable distance, but was brought np before she got on to the rocks by striking on a bank of soft sand. She floated again at high tide. She brings as passengers from Wa:akiMrs. M'Leod and family. ARRIVAL OF THE NOVELTY. The p.s. Novelty left Auckland for Coromandel on Wednesday last, at 8.30 a.m., with 32 passen- . gers, and arrived at Coromandel at 5.30 p m. ... On die 14th it blew so heavily that it was found impossible to get passengers on board from the shore, as the boat could not live. The Novelty dragged her anchoss, but sustained no damage. She left at 11.30 a.m. on the 15th, and arrived here at 6 p.m. She brings several passengers. She also brings intell gence that during the gale on the 11th the chimney connected with the engine belonging to the Coromandel Gold Mining Comp.ny was blown down, and the working of the claim has consequently been stopped The K pangs, claim is being vigorously worked, and the new vein is proving one of the richest yet found in Coromandel. *
It appears-that the gale was much more severely felt in Coromandel than it was in Auckland. ARRIVAL OF THE SYLPH. The schooner Sylph, Captain Rackstraw, left the Bay of Islands on Thursday last, and arrived in the Tamaki at 6 a.m. on, Saturday. Landed her cattle there, and came on to Auckland, arriving here at 6 p.m. yesterday. The Sylph passed the Ivanhte, Sea Breeze, and a full-rigged ship, all bound out, on Saturday last, off Wangarei. She also reports that a new copper mine has been dis- | covered at Wangamutnu, which gives promise of a , very 'large yield. A specimen of the ore has been sent up, per favor of the captain, to Mr. Whittaker. t ARRIVAL OF THE EGMONT. The P.X.Z. and A.R.M. Co.'s s.s.

The schooner Sea Shell went into the Tamaki on Saturday, with a cargo of cattle from the East Coast The s.s. Egmont arrived yesterday from Tauranga anil the South. She brings a southern mail and passengers. The schooner Sylph, which arrived yesterday, had to put back to the Bay of Islands on Thurs day last, owing to the severe gale then blowing. She was only detained for about six hours, however, after which she started again, and arrived here in safety, having landed her cargo of cattle in the Tamaki. , dJThe schooner Picard arrived yesterday from Hobart Town, with a general cargo and 1 passenger. She does not bring any later English news. The schooner Hercules hauled alongside the wharf on Saturday last, to discharge her cargo.

JULY 15—Boneta, cutter, Gardner, from Raglan, with 300 bushels maiz? and corn, 19 pigs, 30 empty hogsheads, and 2 native passengers.—T. Hodg*, agent. The cutter Boneta, Captain Gardner, left Raglan on Friday morning, at 10 a m., and arrived at the Manukau at 2 p.m. on Saturday. The report of our contemporary about the rebels at Kawhia seizing her was totally incorrect, and without foundation. They certainly held a koheroa about it, but deeided upon not attacking, as the friendly natives, being powerful, would not allow of it. The Government-hired steamship Ahuriri, Captain Floriday, will take her departure for Taranaki to-morrow. The s.B. Wellington, Captain Francis, will also leave to-morrow for the Southern Ports. .. _ * ARRIVAL OF H.M.S. ECLIPSE, AT HAWKE'S BAY. (FROM THE " HEKALI),'' JULY 11.) H.M.S. Eclipse, Captain Fremantle, with his Honor the Superintendent on board, dropped anchor in the roadstead on Sunday night, at halfpast 10, having left Wellington on Saturday, at half-past 4 p.m. The St. Kilo*, with Mr. M'Lean on board, reached Wellington on Thursday morning; and it happened fortunately that the Eclipse, with the Governor on board, had arrived from Wanganui on the previous evening. His Excellency having paid a visit to that district with the view of healing the differences that had arisen between the Imperial and the colonial forces, but found it impossible to enter the river en account of the state of he bar. Mr. M'Lean had therefore an opportunity of at once communicrting with his Excellency, as well as wich Ministers, and we are glad to learn that he was promptly and liberally met in the matter of die present position of affairs at East Cape. . The Eclipse brings a supply of urms and ammunition for the use of Morgan and the friendly ' natives, and will sail this day for the East Cape, in j order to land the same. She will also, we under- ' stand, receive on board Captain Fraser and 50 men of his company of military settler*, appointed to act with Morgan against the tiauhau insurgents. The General Government is prepared, if found necessary, to send further reinforcements, and it is quite possible that, after a short penad, the volunteer*! now proceeding to the scene of hostilities will
be assisted or relieved, as circumstances may demand, by a draft from the West Coast, of men experienced in Maori warfare. Meanwhile, we have every faitb that Captain Fraser and his volunteers will be "all there" should fighting await them upon their arrival. The St. Eilda was to leave Wel'ington yesterday with stores and supplies for Waiapu. and may be expected here this evening or to-morrow morning. She will afterwards proceed to her destination.
