The Victoria, German barque, 743 tons, from Dunedin (August 13), via Samoa and Ve.vau (October 25), under charter* to the same firm, made her port of call (Liverpool) on January 27, and was almost discharged when the laut English mail left.

The Medora schooner left last evening on her usual round trip to Whangaroa, Awanui, and Ohora, with a cargo of general stores. From the Customs authorities we learn that during the quarter ending March 31st, there were entered at the port of Auckland the following number of vessels : —lnwards : Sailing, 38; aggregate tonnage, 13,144 tons. Steamers, 30; tonnage, 36,344 tons : Total, 68 vessels, 49.45S tons. Outwards : Sailing, 34; tonnage, 11,051. Steamers, 27 ; tonnage, 30,383 tons : total: 61 vessels ; 41,434 tons. Messrs. W. McArthur and Co. write :—-In your remarks last week on Tonga, statistics. you could not understand why Lisbon should appear as the chief port to which shipments were exported. This is simply explained that Lisbon is generally the port of call for orders, owing to its being convenient if the vessel should be ordered to Marseilles. Your remark re the Germans employing larger vessels is hardly correct; p. 3 nearly all oar copra vessels of late have been Germans, so that the number of vessels clearing—German or English— does not represent the actual trade of the German and English firms.
