Tho schooner ,Success, Capt, Meiklejohn, arrived yesterday morning from Napier, via the Tamnki, where she landed 29 bullocks out of 30 shipped. The Success has experienced very severe weather on the coast, and was compelled to seek shelter for nearly a week in Hicks' Bay ; she lias been very fortunate in only losing 1 bullock. The clipper schooner Coral Queen, Capt, IVn\ to, dropped anchor oif the wharf yesterday about 10 a.m. after a fine run from Lyttelton of 5 days. She sailed on Sunday last, n;id had fine weather on the passage. The following account- of the wreck of the cutter Charlotte, belonging to this port, is taken from the Zyllelton- Times, of the 21st inst:— '• of the Cutter Charlotte —On Wednesday evening it became known at Sumner that an accident attended with loss of life, had occurred in that neighbourhood to one of our coasters. A dingy containing the body of a man was found oil the beach by a fisherman named Harper. The body has since been identified as that of the cook belonging to the cutter Charlotte, daily expected to arrive with timber from Wellington, consigned to Messrs. Montgomery. Todhunter & Co. The boat when discovered was filled with water up to the gunwale, and the body was firmly attached to one of the thwarts, and life did not appear to have been long extinct. The man was formerly in the service of Captain Warren, late of the "Wild Wave. Since Wednesday evening portions of wreck and some shirts marked with the name of Gibson, recognised as belonging to the mate of the Charlotte, have been washed ashore. The vessel belonged to Mr. Close of Auckland. She was about 40 Tons ; -Messrs. Hall, Ritchie & Co are the agents for the owner. An inquest was held on the body yesterday, before Win. Donald, Esq., and an open verdict returned of' Found Drowned.' [It was reported the day the Coral Queen left that the vessel had been found bottom up, and it was therefore probable that all hands were drowned.] The schooner Waverly, Capt. Anderson, and Maid of Kent, Capt. Martin, cleared at Lyttelton for tliis port on the 20th inst. The s.s. Himalaya, Capt. Lacy, leaves for Sydney, this morning. ' The barque signalled yesterday turned out to be the City of Melbourne, from the Tamaki, where she had discharged her cargo of sheep. The schooner Tauranga, Capt. Sellars, arrived from Tauranga yesterday afternoon. The Sylph, from Russell, also proceeded up the Tamaki during the afternoon. The schooner Eli/a, Capt- Taylor, fifteen days from Warnambool, arrived yesterday afternoon. She brings a cargo of 110 tons potatoes, consigned to Messrs. Thornton, Smith & Firth.
