I|| TEE FLYING CLOUD. !|.jj This brig, bouud to California, with passengers, J- still graces our waters with her presence, and is -rapidly gaining for herself great notorietr. Our |.|jreaders are no doubt already aware that for the pst jfc jten days she has been at anchor off tho wharf with if jail her passengers, 130 in number, on board, —she II mot being able, through some unaccountable reason, i I ,|arid v-hich we are at a loss to surmise, to obtain a | ijclearanee from the Custom-house and other authop/jrities. With a view to evade these difficulties, a new jj 'captain goes on board without any authority from !{jCaptain Seon, the licensed commander, at midnight, l| on Thursday last, and gets the brig ready for sea, !|-ihe p.s. Enterprise No. 2 sojn afterwards comIping alongside to tow her out. The suspicions jfjjpf water police Serjeant Jerris, doing duty on the wharf, were hotvevcr in the mean!j time arouspd, and he at once sunmoned Captain W lliams, of H.M.'s Customs, to attend him on a Ij pisit to the Cloud, they arriving there just in time to Is prevent her going to sea, she having no registe; or g Customs clearance on board, besides no duly s| authorised commander. The steamer returned to I' 1 the wharf, the would-be captain came ashore with I the police, and sa tho Flying Olcu l was f estined to

remain quietly at anchor off the wharf. Where nflair will end is hard to say, or when the vessel will sail, but had it not beon for the promptituloandforJsight of Scrgt Jervis, the Cloud would ere_ this bo travelling the deep an outlawed vessel. Yesterday all her fails were unbent and sent below, and tho wheel and steering appa-atus unshipped. Tn:: MY.tf.ou.—The clipper schooner M.'tcor, Captain W. .Tones, arrived in hurbour l:ist evening from tho .East Coast, after a most rapid run from the Kawakawa of thift.v hours, and bringing a cargo of 100 bundels (lux, !-? casks pork, 1 cask lard, 0 bags whnat, 7 • igs, &e., ] also, -1 passengers —Mr. l'eucny, Mr. Sheaiei, and _ n.'itivcs. i'apt ;i:i .Tours reports leaving the kawa at noon on Thursday la-t, witli a lieavy eastorly gal,', and uin tho "whole distance up tho CJ.i-t, urder a cl ise-vccfe.l fore-sail, in the short .-'.paco of 30 hours. .Sighted the Hi g.U>ve c-u _'.V eJneiday last, windhound at Waiapu, and bound here with pivdiuv.

She was last seen on the night of tho 12th ult., and next day a fearful gale from the b'.W. swept along the coast, so it is feared she has foundered with all h.inds. Tho T.irnpini had on board 3 European and 20 native passengers. The Lokii Asur.EY.—Tho Panama Co's n.s. Lord Ashley, Captain Worsp, cleared at tho Custom* yesterday for tho .-"ou'th via Tauranga, with a full cargo and several passengers, but has boon detained from sailing by tlie Government until -1 p.;n. to-ilav, in consequence of the 110:1 arrival of the ilong overdue Panama mail.

WEEKLY SUMMARY. The weather during tlio past week liub been rather unsettled, accompanied by a ileal of rain. The shipping business, however, has not been retarded much, and our \reekly list ot arrivals and departures make a good show. The arrivals since our last have boon on Saturday the Panama Co.'s s e. Lord Ashley, Captain Worsp, from the South, with cargo arid passengers, and n portion of tho 12th Regt.; and the Taliitian brigantino Surprise, Captain Ellacvt.t, from Tuhiti and tho South Sea Islands, with pearl shell, oil, cotton, &c. On Monday the schooner Koso Ann, Capt'iin McKenzie, from Canterbury, with grain. On Tuesday the barque Helen S. I'age, Captain Cairncross, from Brisbane, with cattle. On Wednesday the Missionary schooner Southern Cross, Captain Tilley, from Norfolk Island, in ballast ; and cutter Roao, Captain Dustin, from Napier, with wool. On Thursday the schooner Albatross, Captain Braund, from Lyttelton, with grain. The departures have been on Sunday last the "Circu'ar Saw" liner barque Kate, Captain W. Cooper, for Sydnej', with general cargo and passengers. On Thursday the "Circular Saw" liner Novelty, Captain J. W. Xcaring, for London, with general cargo and 30 passengers ; barque Prince Begent, Captain Eose, for Newcastle, N..>.W., in ballast; and tho cutter Cordelia, Captain Thompson, for Canterbury, with timber, building materials, &o. And yesterday the ship Electric, Captain Lewthwaite, for Plymouth, with troops ; and tho barque Adriatic, Captain Cappon, for Chili, in ballast. There have been two departures for London during the week, the " Circular Saw " clipper Novelty, Captain Nearing, with general cargo and passengers on Thursday; and the ship Eloetrc, Captain Lewthwaite, with the head quarters of the 57th Hegt. yesterday. Both vessels have left in Bplondid trim, and are expected to malfo good passages homo. The Flying Cloud affair has caiißed great excitoment during the week, several attempts having been made to get her under weigh for California without the clearance and register. A stopper w.is put upon the last attempt on Thursday night lust, by the Cm toins authorities seizing her and giving lior would-be captain into the custody of the police.

The whole of tho 12th Regiment with tho exception of one detachment, now at Napier, have assembled in A uckland, and are stationed in the Albert Barracks ready for embarkation homo in the troop ships England and Mary Shepherd. Tho Lord Ashley s.s., made an extra trip to Tauranga on Sunday last, returning on Tuesday with tho whole of tho 12th Segiment from that place. Tho I'annma Mail now considerably ovorduo lias not yet arrived, and great disapointmont and annoyance is felt by all our nierchantile community, as the Supplementary Mail via Suez, is on tho point of leaving us, and therefore there will be no chance of answering any English letters till next month. The s.s. Mataura, from Panama, had not arrived at "Wellington on tho 3rd inst., 10 days overdue. There is a chunco of its arrival however to-day by the s s. l?hcebe, in the Manakau. With respect to the reo:nt loss of the s.s. Star of tho Evening, a Wellington paper says;—" The Board's decision in the case of the Star of the Even ing states that the captain should havo gone outside tho Ariel Rocks." Captain turner had returned from Dunedin to take charge of another steamer. News has been received from Napier of the total destruction by fire of tho ship Montmorency, on the Ist inst. She was a ship of 1000 tons and had just arrived from London, 103 days out, with a full cargo and 169 passenger?. No lives were lost, but the whole of the cargo, luggage, &c., wero destroyed.

Captain Haymefc, who arrived on Saturday from Tahiti by tho schooner Surprise, reports a submarine voloanic eruption occurring off Samoa, in tho vicinity of the Navigators' Islands. Information is wanting, however, with reference to tho exact position of tho phenomenon. His informant was a missionary at Rorotonga, who stated that the waters had been thrown up with great violence, and myriads of dead fish were strewed about tho islands. From Rorotouga wo leirn that tho king (Makia) had died at that plnco, and a now ono appointed in his Btead. Tho coffee crop had turned out a groat suecoJs this year, producing an enormous yield, and tho natives expecting to realise a sum of money expressed themselves anxious to purchase a vessel of from 120 to 1-10 tons register for their own trade.
