Yesterday was a quiet day in shipping—no arrivals or departures being registered at the Customs. The ship Piako was hauled out into the stream from her berth at the Queen-street Wharf. She will probably remain in port till the wool season has advanced sufficiently at Napier for her to receive her consignments for London. At the Queen-street Wharf the ship Crueader was yesterday engaged in taking out some of her cargo in order to make room to pet at the big gun for the defence works, j When this is landed the ship will be moved j from under the crane to the berth just racated by the Piako. _ . An influx of ocean-going vessels should shortly be made into this port. The ship Kiilochan is 6 days out from Melbourne, the ba.rque Deva from London is overdue, the barque Clairmont from the same port is 90 clays out, while the American barque Albert Russell, which left Wellington on the 16th, may put in an appearance at any hour. The Rebecca Crowell, which left Isew York on June 16th, must also be nearing the coast, so that it is not unlikely that several of these vessels might arrive together. The Union S.S. Co.'s Mararoa completed her discharge yesterday, and also took in freight for Southern ports, for which she sails fct noon to-day. The barque Helen is in readiness to proceed to Whangaroa for her timber for Sydney, and will likely sail this morning early, having cleared at the Customs yesterday. For Samoa and Niue the schooner Olive was cleared yesterday, and is prepared to depart, having a full cargo of stores and one passenger on board. She is delayed because of some hitch regarding a permit to tranship me powder from the schooner Christina, but will most likely be able to take it on board and get away during to-day. The ship Waimate, formerly of the N.Z.S. Company s fleet, while on a voyage from London to Adelaide, fell in with a heavy gale off the Croze which resulted in the forward deck-house being stove in, and damage done to the deck, gear, &c. About 6 a.m. yesterday the steamer Bucephalus hauled off from the Railway Wharf, and started on her voyage to Calcutta with her shipment of horses. From the Nautical Magazine of a recent date we learn that a Mr. Yarrow has recently built a small vessel— 36 feet, breadth 6 —and has designed an engine to propel her, in which petroleum vapour takes the place of steam, the fuel being also petroleum. The petroleum fuel is contained in a tank at the bow, and the engines, which occupy very little space, are right aft, so that there is a very large available space for passengers, kc., in the boat. The communications between the tank and the engines are outside ;he boat, and the exhaust vapour from the engine is condensed through the contact of the pipe with the water outside, and then the liquid goes again into the tank. It is claimed for this vessel that she can be started in five minutes from the time of lighting up, that the fire requires absolutely no attention, and that there is no smoke and dust as with a steam engine and coal fire. The small space into which the engine is packed, and its light weight, are also considerable advantages. We should think it likely that Mr. Yarrow's invention has a future before it in connection with the propulsion of small pleasure craft on rivers, in which convenience and cleanliness are more important considerations than cost of fuel.
