The Union Co.'s «.r. Rotomahana, from Southern jiorts and Melbourne, came into bar- ] boar yesterday morning a few minutes after 3 o'clook, with cargo and passengers. Of the passage we learn that the Rotomahana left j Hobson's Bay at 5 p.m. on the 22ud nit. ; passed through Port Phillip Heads at 7.15 p.m., and arrived-in Hobart at 7 a.m. on the "24th: left at 5 p.m. same day, breasted the slanders at 8 a.m. on the 27th, and reached the Bluff *at 1 p.m. ; left at 5 p.m. same day, and moored at Dunedin wharf at 7 a.m. on the 28th, leaving again at .4 p.m. on the 29th; called at the u»ual East Coast ports, leaving Gisborne at 10.30 a.m. the 2nd instant; rounded the East Cape at 4.15 p.m.: pa«ed Caiie ColVille at 5 a.m."on the3rd, and arrived in Auokland at 8.15 a.m. Experienced fresh southerly winds from australia to New Zealaudi moderate variable winds and fine weather up the coast. . . . , , The s.s. Janet Nicoll, hence, arrived at Russell yesterday morning, and after taking in a. supply of coal, resumed her voyage to the Islands last evening. , ... „ The present depressed state o* the Ban Francisco shipping market is attributed to the ■hips chartered by speculators being thrown on the market for rech&rter. This class has made the bulk of recent engagements, and iron ships are not offering freely. Lumber vessels are not go plentiful as was the case a short time ago, and freights are firmer. Wooden vessels are not talked about for charter, owners and agent# apparently bein.g indisposed to compete with iron vessels at current rates. ... The basque Notero left Lyttelton for this port on the 27th ult„ with a cargo consisting of 370 sacks flour, 666 rails, 300 sacks bran, 1271 fciKS flour, 120 sacks sharps, 20 sacks oatmeal, 121 sacks oats, 2605 sacks wheat, 23 cases bacon. For Thames; 80 Backs sharps, 400 Backs wheat.

The ship Piako, Captain Sutherland, left Kapler for London early yesterday morning. The R.M.s. Mariposa resumed her voyage to Honolulu and San Franoiioo yesterday even* ing, starting .a few,minutes after 6 o'clook. The vessel was not very largely patronised with passengers. She was in excellent trim, and should be able to give a good aocount of herself on her run across the Paoifio. Her mall is'due in London on the 7th*February.' The s.s. Clansman is to leave for Russell and Northern ports this evening, and the following boats are also to leave this evening Glenelg for Tauranga, lona, for Maroury Bay and Tairua, and the Wellington for Whangarei." Yesterday was observed amongst the shipping as a close holiday, and although H.M. Customs were opened little' or no business, was done, other than the entering in of ' the s.s., R'otoma-h->nn and the* clearing out of the mall, steamer Mariposa. . * # The. three-masted schooner Himda Isle has been berthed at the Railway Wharf, where she is to land her cargo of coal.
