'The barque Verftas, having completed the leading of her cirgo of sqgar at tho New ZeaIα nd Sugar Company's works, and having taken ?Ji ballast, came down the .harbour yesterday morning and anchored in the stream. From 'this port she is to proceed to Newcastle, going hence in ballast. The e.g. Australia transhipped into the barque lEaeterbill for London yesterday 183 bales wool, and the s.s. Waitaki has for the Lady Jocelyn, for London, some 400 bags wheat. The b.d. , Australia yesterday landed the whole of the transhipment cargo brought from London per Tongariro, received from the lastnamed vessel at Wellington. The brigantine Stanley, the arrival of which . Wβ announced in yesterday's Hebald, came up harbour yesterday morning, and last evening was berthed at the Queen-street Wharf. The s.a. Chelmrford is to leave for East Qaast ports this evening, with cargo and passengers. The barque Loongana, from Hobart, cane into harbour yesterday morning, in charge of Pilot Cooper, and under the towage of the tug Awhina. She brings a full cargo of bark, etc., and has been berthed at the Railway Wharf, there to put out her oargo. Upon the present trip ehe comes under the charge of Captain Borne, who reports that Hobart was left on the 23rd ult., with westerly winds, which lasted until the 25th, when the wind, having increased to a gale, the vessel was hove to for 24 hours; thence fine weather and variable winds to arrival. The Three Kings were passed on Sunday last. The French frigate Duquesne took her departure for Tahiti at a quarter to one o'clock yesterday afternoon. En route she is to call »t tho Kawau, and to take her so far Captain Burgess, the Chief Harbourmaster, accompanied the vessel. She ie to leave the Kawan on her voyage on Wednesday next. Tho New Zealand S.S. Co.'e Kaikoura is to leave- Wellington for home on Thursday next, and the following is the list of the passengers that have booked from here by tho vessel. They leave Onehunga to-day by the Penguin :— Saloon: Mr. and Mm. Paul Pritchard, Mr. and Mrs. Jas. J. Tajne, Mir. Henry W. Vivian, Misf Boss. M. Larkinn. Second saloon : Mr. and Mire. S, Silas Eaflhatn, Messrs. T. A. Ward, Thomas MoLanghlin, Mrs. K. Chadwick, Miss G. O. Ohadwiok, Messrs. John O. Grierson, T. P. Clark. Steerage: Messrs. Robert Walker, Franoia Skilton, James Powell, Mm. Powell, Mitw E. M. Powell. Mr. 0. E. Powell, Miss E. Newnham, Mrs. M. Athol, Messrs. G. A. Jarnieson, and E. B. Smith. The steam tug Awhina during yesterday had some hard towing to do, in the first tnetance 'ja bringing the barque Loongana into port, and text in towing the German barque Henrich Saner into an anchorage off tht> Queen-street Wharf. This was done in the face of a strong Westerly gale. The Henrich Bauer is from Samarang, Java, and brings a cargo of raw eugars to the consignment of the New Zealand Sugar Refining Co. The vessel, carrying the German flag, left the port of departure named on the 17th January, and for the first ten days had calms varied with light westerly winds. The trades proved very "much to tho southward, and after they were dropped south - west to went winds prevailed until Cape Lewin was passed. The vessel came through Bass' Straits with westerly winds, and from thence S.E. to fresh northerly winds prevailed until making Cape Brett, the first New Zealand land, on Sunday evening last; thence fresh northerly winds to arrival. The B.s. Chelmsford, which, as we have already atated, is being overhauled and having iiew iron bands put in to strengthen her, on Mr. ,O. BaiJsy'a slip, is to leave for her usual East .'Ooflst porta this evening.

The brigtmtlne Linda Weber, from Long' Island, came into port, and anchored off the powder ground last evening, via Long Island, with a cargo of guano. Captain Buehell reports having left Noumea on the 24th March, with fresh E.S.E. winds; passed Norfolk Island at 4 p.m. on the 27th; thence to the North Oftpe S.S.E. and westerly winds. The Cape was passed at 8 sum. on Sunday last, and from thence W.S.W. winds to harbour. On the passage between Long Wand and Noumea the brigantine carried away both of her topmasts, and this repair has not yet been made good. In other respects the vessel has been brought into port In capital order. The schooner Queen arrived from Hokiangft yesterday with the following carco :— 2 tone of bridge iron work. 10 oases fruit, 50 hides, S tone i gum, 1 ton sundries, 4 piloe. The Union 00-'e s.s. Tarawora was expected to arrive at this port from Southern ports »nd Molboume at about 10 o'clook yesterday morning, but owing to the vessel meeting ft strong westerly gale whiUt coming across the Bay of Plenty,, she was dolnyod until 10.30 o'clook last evening;. Captain Sinclair reports that the steamer left Melbourne on the. 22nd ultimo, Hobart on the 24»h, the Bluff on the 28th, Dunedin on the 30tb, Lyttelton on the 31st, Wellington on the let inutnnt. Napier on the 2nd and Gisborne on the 3rd ftt 9.30 a.m. Had light winds and fine weather to Gisborne, and from thence strong westerly winds and heavy sea. The Tarawera is not to, leave for Sydney until to-morrow. Renewed efforts are being made to effect • economy in fuel consumption, and two patonts have been taken out, and are being experimentally tried for burning a hitherto practically un- j saleable class of coal, known as " duff." smaller than the smallest of coals usually sold. The Odnul, 8.5., has been fitted up with special fire bars and blower to force the draught of the furnaces, and has made a euooossful trip from the Mediterranean to the Tyne, and it is stated a saving of fifty per cent, has boen realised. In these bad times shipowners would woleomo such a reduction in their coal bills, j and it would go far to brin? back dividend- | paying times. I trust every sucoess will crown the efforts of nil fuel economists. The main reason why the shipbuilding industry of the United States has, in common phrase, " gone to the doge," is because of its inability i to procure materials of construction as cheaply as they can be had in Europe. This was not so serious a difficulty until iron and steel became the recognised materials, and had entirely dispossessed wood in the principal ocean oarrying navies of the world. Tho American shipbuilder cannot proouro his materials from Europe because there is a heavy duty which almost makes their importation prohibitory. Until s this duty is removed or, at any rate, groatly I reduced, there is little reason to bplieve that the enterprise that Mr. Ro<*ch pioneered will ever aeeumo considerable dimensions in competition with the duty-free labour and materials of the old country.
