About 6 o'clock yesterday evening the mail steamer Mariposa proceeded to San Francisco with the outward mail for Europe and America. She took a large number of passengers from this port, and a considerable quantity of cargo. Shortly after nine o'clock yesterday forenoon the Union S.S. Co.'s Manapouri arrived from Melbourne via Hobart and the South. She brings a large number of passengers and ft general cargo.

This morning the three-masted schooner Waireka will be taken from her berth at the Queen-street wharf and placed on Mr. C. Bailey's slip to be re-coppered. The schooners Gael and Curlew were busy discharging their cargoes of produce at the Queen-street wharf yesterday. The ship Waitangi is now ready for sea, and will take her departure on Thursday next. Mariners who cruise in the Hauraki Gulf are warned by the Customs authorities of a dangerous natch of rocks lying between Wekarua Island and a smaller one close to the mainland at Manaia, Coromandel. This patch is about '20 feet in diameter, and is particularly dangerous, as it is just about six feet below the water level at low tide. Rather unexpectedly the Rotomaliana, from Sydney, came into port yesterday evening about 9 o'clock. We arc indebted to Mr. Keith, purser, for the following particulars The Rotomahana sailed from Sydney oil the 23rd at 4.45 p.m., and experienced fine weather with moderate head winds throughout the passage.

On the voyage from Russell to Sydney the Rotomahana made a remarkably smart passage, of three davs twelve hours, logging on two consecutive days 347 and 332 knots respectively, while the trip back has also been a speedy one of four days two and three-quarter hours. We learn that the close season for rock oysters in the County of Coromandel has [ been extended till the 31st March, I Yesterday evening the Northern S.S. Co.s steamers Clansman and lona rook their departure for Russell and Mercury Bay respectively.

The Calliope will proceed to Lyttelton. while the Swinger's first port of call will be \\ ellington. H. M.s. Diamond will also leave this morning, sailing for Hobart. At the Railway Wharf yesterday the Colonial Union Co.'s steamer Bay ley began to discharge her inward cargo, and by nightfall had got rid of nearly all her deck coal. During yestcrdav the Government steamer Stella was engaged in grappling for am' lifting the cable which used to connect the battery at Fort Cautlev with the southern side of the harbour at Kohimarama. After considerable trouble, the heavy wire, over two miles in length, was safely got on board. It is proposed to use it in conncction with the defence works at Lyttelton. The Stella took on board a quantity of gun cotton from the Customs launch, in the stream, for conveyance to the South.
