She brought one passenger, and as cargo 1 ton kauri gum and 29 packages sundries. The s.s. Micgregor arrived from Whangarei early yesterday morning, and left again last ■veiling for the same port. Upon both trips she ■was well patronised with cargo and passengers. Like other vessels that have arrived from the coast during this past few days, the Macgregor fell in with very dirty weather, both on her up and down trip, a very heavy sea being reported «a running outside with thick weather, but not 'much wind.

The i.e. damnum, from Ruusell and Northern ports, came into harbour early yesterday morning, and last evening she left again, bound for Tauranga, with cargo and passengers. The ship Allanshaw wag brought up harbour yaiterday morning from the powder ground, and berthed at the outet western tee of the Queen-street Wharf, there to land her general Cargo. She ii to break bulk to-day. The Union Company's steamship Rotomahana took her departure for Southern ports and Melbourne at noon yesterday. Early yesterday morning, whilst the steamship was being removed from the euter western tee to the end •f the Queen-street Wharf, she fouled the deputy harbourmaster's office, with the result to put it out of plumb considerably. The whole of the paper liniDg inside was torn and broken, and to &uch an extent as to make one almost fcelieve that some dynamiters had been at work. Captain Fisher, it is almost needless to say, was greatly surprised at the complete upset he found to his hitherto well-kept and trim office, and at first believed that his office had been shaken by an earthquake. Until the office is put in presentable form again, Captain Fisher does not feel dispc«ed to be "at home" to visitors.

The newly-purchased steamer Australia by the Union S.B. Co., which arrived at Dunedin from Melbourne on Thursday night last, is to be cleaned and at once put in order to take up her new trade on the route between Wellington and thin port, calling en route at East Coast porta. The brigantine Ryno, boand for Suwarrow Island, proceeded to sea early yesterday morning. The bar quant in e Devonport was berthed at the Queen-street Wharf early yesterday morning, there to land her Lyttelton cargo. The s.». Explorer and three-masted schooner Waitemata were put into dock yesterday morning. The former, amongst other work to Ibe done to her, is to receive a new propollor, and the Waitemata is to receive a cleaning, mtc. The Shaw, Savill, and Albion Co.'s s.s. Doric, Ifrom London, reached Hobart on Thursday might. She was to have left there again last livening, and ii due at Dunedin about Tuesday next. The Doric sailed from London on the 22ad April, the same date that the last San Francisco mail left there. Th« Union Co.'s steamship Hero has been withdrawn from her proposed trip to the '.Clmberley goldfield, owing no doubt, to there mot being sufficient inducement offering. '.Intending passengers from here for the field •'prill, however, be able to proceed to Sydney by Ikhe i.i. Te Anau, leaving here on the 15th inst. S3be will connect with the steamships Simla and Oattert.hnn, which are to leave Sydney on the IJlstinst. for Kimberley. The schooner Orpheus Us to sail for Cambridge Gulf and Derby from here with the first fair wind, and should inducement offer she will be followed by the cutter Lizzie and barque Notero. The brigantine Nora, from the Mersey river, Dime into harbour last evening after a passage of 16 days. She brings a cargo of potatoes, and from Captain Murchison we learn that he left the place named on the 18th May with strong westerly winds, which lasted for the first three days; then light N.E. winda set in, and held to the vessel until Thursday morning last, when It came round from the W.N. W., blowing fresh to arrival. The North Cape was rounded at 7 |>.m. on Thursday, the harbour being reached oxactly 24 hours afterwards. The brigantine will be berthed to day to discharge her cargo. THE SIDLAW. Yfliterdiy Morning early the barque Sidlaw Came into harbour from Hamburg direct, with a fall cargo of general merchandise, of which the jprinoipal lines are cement, salt, gin, schnapps, ■larch, Sio. The barque comes upon her first ▼lilt to this port, and Captain Simpson has been most unfortunate in his passage, having had to contend against an almost unbroken run of contrary winds and heavy weather from the time of rounding Tasmania, and particularly on the New Zealand coast, as may be judged from the fact that the barque has been 21 days reaching hare from the meridian of Cook's Strait. The barque is a sightly-looking vessel of about 450 ton* register, and has all the appearance of being » good carrier, and, at the same time, a comfortable sea boat. The barque reported at the Customs yesterday, and to-day is to be berthed at the Queen-street Wharf. The Sidlaw comes •unsigned to Messrs. Seegner, Langguth, and Co., who were also the agents of the barque Xovnlra, the last vessel that visited here direct from Hamburg. Captain Simpson reports that Hamburg was left on the Ist of February last, with fine weather, which carried the vessel into ,

the N.E., trades, which proved steady. On the 11th March the Equator was crossed, in 28' W. Took the S.E. trades from off the line, and carried them to 32* S., when they g *• place to variable weather and winds, which continued up to Tasmania, which was rounded on the 18th May. Thence strong E. and S.E. winds and dirty weather up to arrival, THE WOLFE. The barque Wolfe came into harbour early this morning (dropping anchor at theman-o-w»r ground) from New York and Adelaide, with a part general cargo from the former port, and 1094 sacks ground bark from Adelaide. The Wolfe is a fine Canadian-built barque of 954 tons register, and is under the command of Captain J. Murphy, who. with his vessel, pays his first visit to Auckland. The barque had a moderate voyage from New York to Adelaide, the firstnamed place having been left on the 25th of December last, and Adelaide was reached on the 21st of April. The barque was 29 days before crossing the line, and then light winds prevailed all the way down south till passing the Crozets, when the barque made several days' excellent running, which went far to prove that the Wolfe can give a good account of herself, if opportunity only offers. The offset of the voyage was marked by a most melancholy accident, resulting in the loss of a fine young seaman named Ewen Crerar, the eldest son of the ship's owner. On getting outside New York harbour the vessel was caught in a heavy gale, and the hands were employed on the poop, trimming sails, when the deceased made a slip to leeward and fell overboard. The vessel was immediately brought to the wind and a lifebuoy thrown, but in the darkness of the night the poor fellow could not be seen. After landing cargo at Adelaide another start for Auckland was made on the 22nd May, and on the passage across the vessel has had to contend against nothing but a series of strong E. and S.E. winds, with high confused seas and thick, dirty weather, until making the New Zealand coast, at 12 p.m. on Thursday. Down the coast fresh and favouring winds prevailed. The barque was met outside Tiritiri by she tug-boat Awhlna, and by her was assisted into port. PORT OF ONEHUNGA. A tslegram from Wanganui states* that the Oreti i* bar-bound at Wanganui, and is not expected to leave there until this afternoon, so that she will not arrive at Onehunga until tomorrow evening. Her departure from Onehunga is therefore postponed until 3 p.m. on Monday. The weather in the Straits during the past few days has been very bad. KAIPARA SHIPPING. Sunday, May 30.—The s.s.
