Tke schooner Agnes, from the Chatham Islands, may shortly be looked for. The cutter "Vincent arrived yesterday from Tau ianga, with a cargo of wheat, &c. The N.Z.S S. Co.'s s.s. Taranaki took her departure yesterday afternoon from Onehunga fer the South prith passeggers and cargo. I The whaling brigantine Magellan Cloud is expected \ to leave again on another whaling expedition at the i «nd of the week. ' The schooner Sunbeam arrived from Waipu yes- ; terday, with a cargo of produce, and several passen- I gers. ! The schooner Isetitia has been laid on the berth for Tongatubu, and Is announced to sail on Friday next. The schooner Advance, Captain Kennedy, arrived last evening from East Coist ports, with a full cargo of produce. The s.s. lona took her departure yestrrday afternoon on her usual weekly trip to Northern port?, •with a general cargo and a large number of passengers lhe N.Z.S.S. Co.'s s.s. Phcebe, Captain Wornp, arrived at OnehungayesterdaymorningfromSouthern ports. She leaves again for the South on Friday sext. The brigantine Kate Brain arrived in harbour yes terday morning from Dunedin and Oamaru, with a fall cargo of breadstuffs, &c. She left Oamaru on the Oth instant. The s.s. St. Kilda arrived at Onehunga at 8 o'clock yesterday morning from "Wanganul, with passengers i and cargo. Captain Floworday reports leaving at 3 p.m. on the 18th instant, and experienced fresh easterly wind and thick rainy weather during the passage. She leaves again for Wanganui at 2 p.m. tomorrow. • f understand that Messrs. Holmes Brothers havo decided to run their new steamer, the Durham, to the Hot Spnng3 once a week, namely, on Saturday, and returning on Monday. Her time of departure bas been fixed at four o clock on Saturday afternoon from Queen-street wharf, and from the Hot Springs at six o'clock in the morning. This will enable many engaged in business to make an excursion durirg ■the summer without interfering with the same, as the boat will leave after business hours on Saturday, and return to town on Monday morning in reasonable time to commence the duties of the week. Whilst • engaged in this traffic the steamer may be very justly styled " The Husband's Boat." and will no doubt meet with extensive patronage. * "We have recei-ved a letter from a correspondent at Matakuna, complaining of the non-arrival of the s.s. Minnie Casey «t that settlement on Tuesday last, whereby great inconvenience was occasioned to n number of settlers, who had conveyed produce down for shipment. AVe may mention, that on the day in •question, the steamer was laid up to repair somo slight disarrangement in her machinery. . Captain Cassv. in order to keep as near as possible to his time-table, 'so~ as not to disappoint either passengers or announced that the steamer would make the trip on the following day, returning the same day. It so happened, however, that although she went to the Springs, the fog was so dense that Captain Xasper deemed it imprudent to venture Into Matakana, and returned to port without calling. These circumstances prevented the Minnie Casey (against which we have never heard a single complaint) from keeping to her time-table on this occasion. Accidents wiJl happen in the best regulated steamships, as veil ae famUiw.

The barque Lizzie Fox arrivedjyesterto ■'afternoon In harbour from- Dunedln, which port sheleft on the Brd Instant: . She brings a portion of-her New York. cargo, having originally sailed from there. On-dfc-charge of cargo tbe barque will be laid on for -New York by Messrs. Owen and Graham, her agents. 'The schooner- Canterbury; 75 tons. Captain-Clark, : arrived in port yesterday evening from Napier in ballast. She left Napier on the 12th instant, an I experienced northerly winds to the E»»st Cape, which was rounded at 4.30 p.m. on Sunday last, thence . eaotcrlr weather to port. Captain Clark reports the I schooner Agnes Donald in Hick's Bay, bound to 1 Auckland, also the schooner Acadia, which was to load on the coast. Sighted also a brigantino and two topsail schooners all bound to the northward. It may not be uninteresting to the many friends of Captain R. Peok to learn that he is at present at Port Chalmers. Ho is now in command of the "Waia splendid ship of 1123 tons, tho property of the New Zealand Shipping Company. She is registered A 1 for 100 years. On this voyage she made the passage in 89 days from Oravesond, with 350 immigrants, who were landed all well. The Waimate has a splendid saloon, cabins well fitted and ventilated, and is a very comfortable vessel altogether. Everj* one is well pleased with the ship and her oQicers. THE "WRECK OK THE JUBILEE. Wc yesterday chronicled the fact of the total wreck of tho Wesluyan Mission schooner Jubilee at Lakemba, oue of the Windward Islands Fiji group. Wo have since been placed in possession of a few particulars of the occurrence occasioning tho loss of tlio ivessel. Fortunately no lives were lost. It appears that ou Monday, the 22nd November, the Jubilee got under weigh at Lakeba for Loma Loma. having as passengers the Rev. Mr Rooney and Mrs Rooney. A very hea\y gale had been blowing for somo days, but it was then a dead calm, though a heavy dead-roll was setting in to the reef. The Jubilee had been waiting for some days to get out, but could not, in consequence cf tho calm, so the captain eized this tho first oppoi tunity of doing so. They got sufely through the passage, when they were becalmed about fifty yards from the mouth, and the heavy roll, or loka, carried them broadside, on to the reef. Mr and Mrs Rooney were immediately landed, and every effort made to get the vessel off, Jjut without success. The ballast was theu thrown out, as hopes were entertained of floating herin over the reef, sixteen fathoms of cable wore then paid out ahead (th t is to say inehorti of her), when a g'gantic roller carried her in and sat her upon the lluko of the anchor, sonding it clean through her; in addition to which she lost her false ke»l. She was still on tho reef when our informant lvft Lakaba, but hopes were entertained of floating her in with tho aid of casks. She was uninsured. No blame can be attached to any one on board, as it was entirely owing to the sudden dying aw»y of the ■wind. Captain lowry was in command at the timeARRIVAL OP THE EMU". The auxiliary s.s. Emu arrived last night from the Islands. Wo have the following report of her trip:— The Kmu loft tho North Head of Auckland on the evening of the ISth November, with light north-west winds, which increased to a fresh breeze, having to shorten sail in consequence; on the 20th the weather moderate I and the wind hauled round to the south and south-east, which lasted till making the island of Matuka at 10 p.m. ou the oveninß of the 25th; arrived at Levuka on the evening of the 26th at 8 P«na. On tbe 29th landed our cattle at Tnkutuku Bay, and arrived at Levuka at 3 p.m. on the same evening; mcored alongside A.S.P. Co/a bulk and received some cargo; weather squally, with rain, which detained us until the morniag of tneZnd iD3tant, when we sailed for Taviuni where we arrived on the morning of the 4th inst.; on Monday, the 6th, began to load cargo, and after coasting a'ong the west side of Tavuini, receiving cargo at various plantations, sailed for Auckland at 5 p.m. on the 10th with fresh trade winds; on the 11th cleared the group, with fresh breezes and fine weather; in longitude 80 west the wind fell calm, which continued till the morning of # the tlie 20th; from thence light and variable winds and cloudy weather, at 10.15 p.m. on the 20th mado the Poor Knights; fresh south-east winds and cloudy weather with rain, which continued till arrival, and which has been the cause of oursomcwhat lengthy passage.
