Yesterday morning the barque Deva was berthed at the Queen-street Whart, and operations were at once to get the necessary apparatus for discharging set up. A large number of persons took the opportunity of inspecting the vessel as she lay at her berth, as no little curiosity was evinced as to the condition in which the vessel -would be after her lengthy and tempestuous voyage of 141 days. As Captain Davies had started a gang of men early in the day to paint her hull, however, and one side was completed by evening, but few traces of her buffeting by the winds and waves are now visible, none of her gear or rigging having at all suffered during the voyage. Early yesterday morning the brigantine Parnell, Captain Mclsaacs, sailed For the Kaipara, where she is to load up with timber for Melbourne.

The barque Helen, which recently left this port, is lying at Whangaroa loaded with hewn and sawn timber, awaiting a favourable chance to take her departure for Hobart. The work of discharging the schooner Glencairn of her cargo of wheat from Lyttelton was being carried out with despatch yesterday. Captain Hutton expects to get away to the Thames next week.

Messrs Arnold Cheney and Co., the agents for the American barque Albert Russell, expect that she will complete her loading of gum for New York by the end of the week. The Union Co.'s Tarawera was engaged yesterday in discharging her Sydney cargo and in taking in freight for the South, whither she is to sail to-day at noon. The brig Peerless arrived at the Kaipara Heads yesterday from Melbourne. She is to load timber at the Wairoa River.

As is usual at the departure of the Sydney steamers, a large crowd of persons assembled on the wharf yesterday when the s.s. Rotomahana was about to sail. This favourite steamer had a large number of passenger.') on board for Australia, as follows :—2l saloon and 17 steerage from the South, and 56 saloon and 132 steerage from this port—a total of 226 souls all told. The ship Killochan is still discharging her cargo, the last of the waterworks pipes being taken out yesterday, while the Crusader is now engaged in shipping kauri gum for London.

The s.s. Restitution recently arrived at Sydney from London, is said to have brought to the colony the largest cargo of general merchandise which has ever been carried in one bottom. She had on board 6650 lions of goods on leaving London, to be distributed between Adelaide, Melbourne, and Sydney, 500 tons only being for the first-named port. The steamship companies at Adelaide are making the experiment of burning wood instead of coal, so far with satisfactory results. It is found that about two tons of wood are equal to a ton of coai.
