The brigantine Clansman sailed yesterday for Kaipara, there to load with timber for Lyttelton. The barque Loongana will probably sail tonight for Hobart Town. The brigantine ictivo did not sail until about 6 a.m. yesterday for Samoa and the islands. The barque Clara Hargrave, from Newcastle to this port, with coal, is now 30 days out, having sailed on the 15th ult. The barque George Treat, from New York, arrived in Adelaide on the 6th ultimo, and is eet down in the local papers to come on to Auckland. The Union Co.'s s.s. Arawata arrived in harbour shortly after 2 o'clock yesterday afternoon from Melbourne and Southern ports, with passengers and a large cargo of merchandise upwards of 200 tons. Wo are indebted to the pnrser for the following report :—The steamer left Melbourne on the 31st ult. at 3.30 p.m., and cleared the Heads three hours afterwards; arrived at Hobart Town on April 2 at noon, and left at 5.30 p.m., making the Bluff on the 6th at 8 a.m. ; sailed again at 6 p.m., and was at Port Chalmers at 6 a.m. on the 7th, Lyttelcon on the Bth, Wellington on the 10th, and Napier on the 11th ; left this latter port at 5.30 p.m., and passed Gisborne, as a very high sea was running. Experienced thick weather, with strong easterly gales, from Hob art Town to the Bluff, and more or less squally on the run up the coast. The steamer did not get away to ydney until midnight The Union Co.'s s.s. Botorua, from Russell and Sydney, may be expected in harbour at daylight this morning. She is announced to sail for the East Coast and Southern ports at 10 a.m. to-morrow. The >new schooner Taviuni is announced to sail to-day for Levuka and Taviuni (Fiji). We see by the Fiji Times that the Auckland brigantine Borealis is not returning at present to this port. The same paper says:—"The brigantine Borealis, a fine new clipper-looking vessel, which lately arrived from Auokland, has been chartered by the Government to enter the labour trade. She is entored out at the Customs for the New Hebrides Group, but will not leave before the Ist of April, when it is to be hoped the whole fleet of vessels will be ready to leave. The schooners Dauntless, Tubal Gain, Winifred, and Marion Kennie are all busily engaged re-fitting at Nai Korokoro. On Friday, 12th ult., Mr. James McCulloch submitted to publio auction the wreck of the schooner Ariel, stranded in Suva harbour during the blow of December last. The vessel fell to the bid of Mr. Lomax, for a sum of £40. Mr. Lomax has a yard within a short distance of the sosne of the vessel's mishap, and expresses bis ability to have the Ariel afloat and in Levuka harbour within one month. Owing to the inolemency of the weather the advertised sale of timber did not take place. The barque Stag sailed on the 27th ult. from Newcastle for this port, and is therefore 18 days out.
