Tho schooner Lady Don sailed from Mercury Bay for Lyttelton on Friday last, with a cargo of timber. The cutter Shamrock, Captain Jones, left Mercury Bay for 'l'ologa Bay on Sunday last with a cargo of timber.

3.M s.s. Charybdig, Captain Lynns, steamed from tho man-of-war offing, Wynyard Pi"r, early yesterday, on a cruise to the Kawau. During her absence we bolievo the men will be engaged in big gun exercise. The Charybdis is exoeoted to return to port on ITriday evening or Saturday morning noxt. Tho s.s. Auckland went on the hard yesterday morning for the puipose of having her bottom cleaned. She will haul alongside the wharf to-day, and steams for Sydney with cargo and passengers to-morrow at noon.

The Weather.—A large number of vessels took advantage of the favorable change in the wind to the S.W. yesteiday, and sailed for their respective destinations. The Ivanhoe, with a general cargo for Mongomii j Kenilworth, for Noumea via Kennedy's Bay, with timoer and a general cargo ; Meteor, for Norfolk Island and New Caledonia, with a general cargo j Saucy Lass, for the Bay of Plenty via Mercury Bay, with general cargo ; Pearl, for the Thames gold-field, with timber; FJying Buck, for Melbourne via Kennedy s Bay; Xawera, for Poverty Bay, with goneral cargo; Zillah, for RcrotODga, Tahiti, and South Sea Islands, with general cargo; and Davn, for the Great Barrier, all took their departure yesterday.

Tho barque A. H. Badger is all ready for sea. She will clear at thn customs this morning for Christchurch, and take her departure in the evening. The p.s. Enterprise, Capt. Seon, steamed from the wharf at 11 a.m. yesterday for the Thames g> ldfields, with about 50 passengers. She will .zeturn from the diggings to-day. The s s. Star of the South, Capt. Bendall, left the wharf last evening, for Napier, with a gentiral cargo. The Gemini.—The littlo steamer Gemini went on the hard in Mechanics' Bay yesterday, for the purpose of undergoing some alterations and repair. A. cargo boat went up to Kiverhead in the place of the Gemini.

The Rose.—Tho cutter Rose, Capt Philpott, left Mercury Bay on tunday morning, and arrived in port yestorday, with a cargo of 18,000 feet timber and 12,000 shingles. Capt. Philpott reports that the strong easterly winds whi>:h have recently prevailed caused a heavy fresh in the river. Tho Rosa lost her anchor and chain whilst lying there. This smart little vessel sails again for Mercurv Boy to-morrow morning. A brig, supposed to be tho Pakeha, anchored off tho North Head last evening. Tho Pakeha sailed from Sydney on tho loth instant, with a general cargo and several passenger?, and is now 15 days out.

2he Halcyon, s.s., left Greymouth on Tuesday morning last, but on crossing the bar, shipped three tremendous seas, one of which was Led Captain Wing right off the fore rigging and put him in the surf, lie struck out for theshoro with little hopo of reaching it, but in the meanwhile the same sea had put the steamer s fires out, and she became stationary. He then made for the vessel and fortunately was able to get alongside, and was also able to catch a line that was thrown to hiw. By this means he was rescued from a -watery gr tve, and the boat came out subsequently under canvas. She is now bound for the Manufeau, where she will have a thorough overhaul, and on her return will be a more useful craft than ever. We need not say that- we wish her every success, for she ii eminently qualified for service on this coast, and the character of her commander and officers have earned golden opinions on it.
