After a shoc'j absence from this port, during I?hich the ate amer has been detained at Dunwdln for hp.r usual annual overhaul, the s.s. Wairarapa came into port yesterday morning, and wa_ _t once berthed at the Queen-street Wharf, where the work of landing her cargo was, without delay, proceeded with. The effect of the Vfairarapa's lny-up at her head quarters is that tb e steamer has reached port in really excellent ovder again .everything on board being in that trim and clean stats for which this fine steamship has always been noted. Captain Chatfield, her popular commander, still retains charge, and in the other offices no alterations have been made, except in that of the purser, Mr. W. Kancarrow, now occupying that important office. Of the passage of the rteamer, we learn that the Wairarapa left Melbourne on the 14tb instant and arrived at the Piuff on the 19th ; sailed again the same even'.ng at 5.30 o'olook' called at Dunedin, Lyr.telton, Wellington,' Napier, and Gisborne, leaving the latter port on the 25th at 10 a.m., vounded the East Gape at 4 p.m., and passed Tiritiri on the 26th at 9 a.m., and berthed at the wharf as above. She had splendid weathsjr throughout the passage, till rounding the East Cape, thence for six hoars, strong westerly winds, with high seas, afterwards _ne weather. Last evening the steamer left ay ain for Russell. The s.s. 01r.usman for Russell and Northern ports, lona '.or Mercnry Bay and Tauranga, and the Chdlmstord for Opotiki, all took their departure la st evening, with cargo and passengers. The sc'jooner Waiwera was hauled off from the Queen-street Wharf yesterday morning to an .anchorage In the stream. There she remains awaif.ng a fair wind to get away on her voyage to Norfolk Island. T'ue schooner Seibird was berthed, yesterday inorning at the Railway Wharf, whfjre she will l*_d her cargo of bonedust. The French schooner Gauloise was yesterday taken out for a trial i.pin in the harbour. There was a steady northerly breeze blowing, and the •ohooner did such good work as to greatly please all who were on board, and she gave evidence that she will fully bear out all the food expectations that have, been held of her Yesterday the barge Raakaka arrived' from Sydney via Whanearoa. The barge brought a Argo of timber from tne latter port, she hav* 'ig arrived at Wh.an*ar,o» in ballast.

The brigantine Stanley arrived from Newcastle kit nigat with ft cargo of coal. Captain Greenwood reports that the brigantine left Newoaiitle about 8 a.m. on the 17th inst., with a light northerly wind and fair weather. At noon wind veered to N.E., and remained between N. and N.E. till 10 p.m. on the 19th, when it reered to the N.W.; moderate breezes and fine weather. On the 20th it veered to the H.W. and 8., and freshened to a strong breeze, whloh lasted till.B a.m. on the 21st, when It backed again to the westward, and died out to a calm; at 4 p.m. light breeze sprung up from the N.W., and freshened to a moderate breeze, whioh was carried all the way across. Passed the ■ North Oape at 9.30 on the 25th, and Oape Brett at 9 p.m. the same date: light airs and calms till 6 a.m. on the :26th, when a breeze sprang up from tho N.W., which brought the vessel into port, and anchored at 7 p.m. The Seamen's Union, in their endeavour to obtain vessels to run against the Northern Company are adopting strange devices. We now learn that the Union, not being able to get vessels by openly endeavouring to charter them, hare arranged with a publican of Dane* din, who has gone, or is about to proceed to Auntralia, with instructions from the Union to uegoolate for the purohase of two steamers upon the following extraordinary terms : —The vessels are to be purchased for an agreed sum of money, and a certain amount will be paid down. The conditions of purchase will be that the vessels are to be held for six months, and if at the end of that time they are found not to suit they can be returned to their owners, the would-be purchaser forfeiting the deposit. This lii a very neat plan, but we think our Australian shipowners will be keen enough to see through this ruse for obtaining temporary possession of their boats.
