This w holesomelooking craft was built by Mes-rs. J. W. Carmichael and Co., at Picton, Nova Scotia, to the order of Captain D. H. McK«nzic, of this pert. She is intended for the colonial trade, for which she appears eminently adapted. Her length is 125 ft. 7in.: depth of hold, 13ft.; and a beam of 2!Ht 6in., and is constructed so as give her great carrying capacity, the has the credit of beingstilf under canvas, anil possesses altogether good weatherly qualities. She is well fimshed Id every respcct and likely to prove a valuable addition to our fleet of Auckland-owned vessels. The Cabar-feidh was built ou the sau.e blocks as the Missionary schooner Dayspriug. Captain James D. Fr&ser, who comtnauds her, reports having left Boston on tho 23r>i December last, with a cargo for Table Bay. After discharge of this at Capo Town she sailed again on the Bth April, and arrived at Port Phillip Heads on the 21st Alay; left again for Auckland on tho 2Sih ult. of the weather experienced from Port Phillip. Captain Fraser reports light southerly windi the first part of the passage, with occasional calms. After passing Wilson's Promontory strong northerly and variabl • winds wero met with and a strong, hard gale fr m S.E. veering to N.E., which prevailed during Wednesday and Thursday last: lght S.E. and northerly winds were then encouutered on the coast aud continued until arrival.

SHIPPING DISASTKUS IN THE SOUTH SEAS. By tho arrival of the brigAntino Coronet from Tahiti we are placed in possession of news of various shipping disasters iu the South Seas. Tho particulars lo hand have been gathered by CapUia Kose, but owicg to difficulties encountered in the transmission of news amongst the islauds, are somewhat bare of details. We, however, give th»-m as supplied. The ship Airey Forco, bouud from Newcastle, N.S.W., for San Francisco with a cargo of coal, was wrecked in April last at ltaroia (or Barclay Inland), one of the l'aumotu Group. All hands managed to escape to the shore. Captain Louis Garoaut, of Aucklaud, at present amongst the i-lands, purchased the wreck and succeeded in saving a quantity of effects which he conveyed in a vessel togeth- r with the shipwrecked ciew to Tahiti. The crew were then taken ou board the schooner Maggie Crocker, one of tho Tahitian mail vessels, for conveyance to S.tn Francisco, but they had not been three days on their passage before a more torriblo disaster befell them. The vessel was suddenly overtaken by a hurricane near the Paumntu*, which c.ipdzcd hor, the whole of her hands, together with tho shipwrecked crew, heing precipitated into the sea. After iu the water for some tiino they all were drowned with the exception of aln Sinclair of th" schooner, a ul Caplain Scott, Wte ut tho Air«y Force Tho preservation of th.-se two m»y described as almost miraculous. At tlie tnuo < f the schoouer heeling over anil tilling they were in the cabin and the only menus of egress was through the skylight. This they speedily availed theirs eves of aud as they emerged from i below succeeded in gaining the boat which had just b*foiel>een undergoing some rep.iirs on deck. As j the schooner capsized the boat floated and the two f captains were enabled to save their lives by her and g-un thekhore. They eventually reached Tahiti.

The ship Eddyatone, of Liverpool, bound from the Gnlf of California to Queen-town, with a cargo of guano, pat into Papete harbour, previous to the arrival of the Coronet, in a leaky condition. A survey having been held, it wm decided to discharge the principal portion of the cargo and repair the ship. Before the Coronet left over 200 tons cargo had been discharged, and the Vessel's topsides caulked. It was intended to proceed on the voyage as soon as the repairs were effected and cargo resnipped. A barque belonging to N&ute?, France, the Dame of which Capt. Rose believes to be the Les Angelos. bound from Mgolue to Valparaiso, with a carco of rice, wns overtaken by a hurricane in the .*-outh Seas and suffered severe damage. Her decks were swept, the lower rigging carried away, chainplate-bolts wrenched out, stanchions and bulwarks demolished, and a complete sweep made of the decks foie a:.d aft. A large quantity of water found its way below, damaging the cargo. The vessel, which was almost a wreck, was compelled to bear up to Papete for repairs. She had commenced to discharge her cargo when the Coronet left.

A brigantine, the name of which is believed to he the OrilU, commando I by Captain Scott, and belonging to Live-pool, engaged in the pearl fishing at the I'aurnotus, has been seized by the French authorities for encroaching on their territory. The schooner had at time of the captare eight tons o* pearl-shell on board. She was taken as a prize and towed into I'apete by the Freoch war-steamer Vire, the captain being thrown into gaol. The Tahiti»n authorities are aw.titing orders from home as to the ultimat- disposal of the captain and their pri2c. QUARTKRLY SHIPPING RETURNS. The following are the Returns of Vessels entered at the Tort of AuckLind from each couutry, for the Quarter ended 30th June, IS75:—

We learn that Mr. Shaw, late chief officer of the brigantino Nightingale, has been appointed to the command of the three masted schooner Kstelle.

The brigautineSir Isaac Newton sailed from Wangaroa on the 12th ultimo, for Melbourne. Her cargo consisted of 75 000 feet timber.

The Mssionary barque John Williams, belonging to the Loudon Missionary Society, is reported by Captain liose to have breo lying at Kuaitea duriug the month of May last.

The K.M. s.s. Cyphrencs, 12S0 tons, T Wood, Esq., commander, arrived in harbour on June 18, punctually to her time, from Sau Francisco, with the English mails, having ma le the passage in 24$ days, and 37 hours within contract time. Mie left for Sydney at noon on t«<e 19ch.

The mail steamer Macgregor left on the night of 14th June for San Francisco, with 93 passengers and a general cargo, also the Australian and New Zealand for Europe and America. Two extra ship's carpenters uere sliipp-.d by her at this port to assist in repairing the damage done on deck, by the heavy weather encountered on her p*ssug« from Sydney to Auckland.

The cutter Julia, which struck on the Takatau Reef, Kawau Passage, on the sth June, has become a complete wreck, having broken up. iler owner (Mr. T. Willimiis), as soon as aoprised of the mishap, proceeded down to the scene of the wreck, and has succeeded in lecovering both anchors and chains, as well as sails Atd rigging; but these latter arc worth little, through d .ma«e. The cutter was valued at about £300, and was uninsured.

A sculling match with watermen's boats took place ou Wednesday, loth June, in tlie harbour, between O. U. Clarke, owner of the cutter* Matakana and Heather I>cl), and Kichard Hill, of Wiiihcke, for £5 a-side. T.e course was from thrt wharf round the yacht D.»phne, moored off Judge's Hay, and back to Mechanics' Hay basin The competitors appeared evenly matched on the course down, and round» d the yacht almost together, Clarke having if anyth ng a slight advantage. Uuforcunat'dy fur him, however, the fresh westerly wind and strong ebb tide on the way back *et hia boat into June's lt.iv. and he was onahle to weather the reef, the boat in fact being driven ashore. 11 111 thus having the tace in his own hamls came in leisurely, but had a hard pull of it home.

The urigautine Coronet arrived on 14th June from another cruise amongst the South sea Islands. She brings a full general cirgo consigued to Messrs. Owen and Graham, .Mr James Uillidau having accompanied the vessel as superc&igo. Cap;aiu Hose reports'nf the passage as follows I.» ft Auckland on the Ist March, aud dropp'd down to Maagitoto, from whence we started ou Friday, the sth. Throughout the voyage to Tahiti encount« red heavy Iroui the east, aud aftorwiirds from the north, followed by light airs and calms till making the Mete.-*, when w.« fell in with the S. K. trades, which proved light. Anchored at Papet»s on the lilst April; left theie on the 3rd May, aud arrived at Uaatea on the 4 th; Wt there on the Oth, and arrived at harotonga on the 13th. Sailed again on the *!Snd Ma> for Alien laud. During the home voyage experienced similar bad weather to that met with on the down trip, uutil Fridaj last, when it blew a heavy gale from the >.K , with tremendous sea, which lasted 43 hours, during which the vessel was hove-to. Made the Poor Knights ou Sunday 13th, at daylight, and arrived as above.

The schooner Blanche, C"2 tons, Captain Youn-:, arrived in port on Monday, June 14, from Karotonga, with a cargo of South S**a Island produce. Captain, Young reports having left Aucklaud on the 10th April Ja*t, with an easterly wind. Having proceeded a* far as 40 miles outside the Great was compelled to put btck on the 2lit under the shelter of the island, a strong easterly (ale setting in. i.ay th re until the 'JGth, during which time Captain Young had the misfortune to lose one of his crew (particulars of the disast-r will be fouud elsewhere). Kasteny winds continued until the Ist "May, when easterly weather set in, and Karotonga Was made on the 10th .May. Discharged cargo, and loaded again for Auckland, and set sail on the 3rd. Unsettled weather was experienced until the oth June, on which date a very severe gale commenced from the S.S. K. This lasted for three days, and veered gradually to the northwards. During this gale the squaresail-yard was carried away, and tho sail split to ribbons. Made the Poor Knights on Sunday, at 4 p.m., fine westerly weather being met With aloug the coast. The blanche brings two passengers, and is consigned to Meisrs. Owen and Graham.

H.M.S. Dido took her departure at daylight on Saturday for Wellington, calling on the way at Tauranga harbour. It must be satisfactory to Captain Chapman and the ollicers of the Dido, to know that a better disciplined or better behaved set of men than those who compose the crew of this man of-war, have never visited this port. It is matter of remark by many citizeus of Auckland, that during the protracted stay of tho Dido in these waters, the crew have been most exemplary in their conduct wh lo on liberty ashore, i'ew vessels in ll'r Majesty service can boast of a finer set of men than those to be fou'.d amongst the crew of the Dido. In leaving Auckland all on bo ird take with them the good wishes of the citizens for their welfare. On the Ist July a number of the ship's company— consisting of petty officers, blue-jackets, and marines, accompanied by the ship's band— received the permission of Captain Chapman to speud a social evening ashore, a kiudness which is not often extended when a ship is under sailing orders. This was made the occasion of presenting host Humphreys, of the British Hotel, with an illuminated address, prepared by ono of tho ship's company (— Hill, K.M.A.), couched iu the following teuus:—"ll.M.S. Dido, Auckland, June *20, 1575. The petty otiiccrs, noncommissioned otlicers, aud ship's company of (I.M.S. Dido, on their leaving Auckland, wish to tender to Mr. Humphries, of the Brit sh Hotel, their thanks for the great courtesy shewn towards them during their several stays in this port, and hope they shall always hear of the continued success of himself and family. At the same time, they wish to recommend all the crews of Her Majesty's ships serving on this station to givrt him their patronage; for we feel sure that, for accommodation, moderate charges, and civility, they will find the British Motel unrivalled in Auckland." (Here follow the signatures.) At the conclusion of the ceremjuy the company sat down to a

"spread," the chair being taken by Corporal Frank Home, tt.M.A.,aad the vice-chair by Kobert IV.tter, captain's coravain. '1 he usual loyal and patriotic toasts were drank, followed by the health of the popular commander (Captain Chapman). *vhich was drunk with the utmost enthusiasm, thus shewing the estimation in which the worthy captain is held by the men. Other toasts Mteceeded, interspersed with songs; and the company separated before 12 o'clock, after a very agreeable ♦iveni g h:id been passed amongst themselves. The proceedings were further tnliveiu-d by some very choice instrumental muaic rendered by the ship's band.
