Early on Saturday morning the mail steamer Mariposa, Captain H. M. Hayward commander, reached port from San Francisco via her usual places of call, Honolulu and Tutuila. She brought a large number of passengers, of whom a fair sprinkling were lor Auckland, the balance being booked through to Sydney. Her freight department was also well patronised, and in addition to the local and Southern consignments, she had 1118 tons for Australia. The trip was a very pleasant one, and much social amusement was . indulged in by the passengers. The Mariposa sailed from San Francisco at 3.40 p.m. on December 16th, reached Honolulu on the 23rd, sailing again after a stay of thirteen hours. Tutuila was touched at on December 30th at 7 p.m., and port made as described above. As soon as the steamer was berthed the work of coaling and discharging her was promptly begun, and though the freight was all out by nightfall, coaling operations continued till an early hour yesterday morning. In consequence, the steamer did not leave till S a.m. yesterday. The brigantine Darcy Pratt was on Saturday cleared at the Customs for Tahiti, for which port she has on board a freight of general stores. She has hauled into the stream, and will sail to-day. On Saturday morning the fine ship Zealandia, which completed her loading for Loudon on Friday, was hauled into the stream. She will clear to-day, and Captain Phillips expects to sail during the day. By the arrival of the mail steamer we learn that the barque Arnold von Bippen was loaded on December tith, and was to sail on or about the Sth. Shortly after midday on Saturday the s.s. Wanna sailed for Greymouth and Nelson. The Northern S.S. Co.'s Clansman arrived yesterday from her regular ports on the Northern coast with a good number of pas- j sengers. Daring her voyage from London the ship Dunedin spoke quite a number of vessels, but did not see any sign of the ship Waitangi. Signals were exchanged with the following : — November 7, RCMF. ship Loch Shiel, bound south, lat. 2" S. long. 27" W.; 12th, Italian barque Angiolia, from Santos bound to Pensacola, in lat. 20" S. long. 29"50 W.; 13th, NDVF, Holland, schooner, from Hamburgh bound to Algoa Bay, 64 days out, in lat. 23" S, long. 29"50 W.; 17th, NGWH, barque Holmesdale, of Aberdeen, from Gulf of Bothnia for Melbourne, 49 days out, in lat. 31' S. long. 23' W.; 22nd, JTVL, ship Loch Broom, of Glasgow, from Liverpool for Calcutta, 44 davs out, in lat. 36' S. long. 17 W.; 23rd, HBFT, Norwegian ship, from i Frederickstadt for Melbourne, 64 days out, lat. 37' S. long. 16' W. J In addition to lists previously published the following had booked at London for New Zealand ports up to November 30 : —Per s.s. Taroba sailed November 20 : For Auckland j Miss Escott,Mr. E. R.

Rome to sail December 13 : For Wellington—Mrs. Middleton; for Auckland Mr. Hutchison. Per s.s. Arcadia to sail December 28 : Judge and Mrs. Munro, Mrs. Jones, Messrs. E. M. Jones, and Hargreave. In regard to freights between America and Australasia, Messrs. R. W. Forbes and Son report on December 6" The situation is not relieved to any appreciable extent. Charters are made mainly for future arrival, there being no vessels for spot charter. Efforts to charter for Dunedin, Lyttelton, Nelson, Freemantle, and Launceston, are as yet unsuccessful. Adelaide is also uncovered since departure of the Faith. The Elinor Vernon goes to Wellington and Auckland. The Stein vora and Essex are closing, but cargo details will not be available in season for this mail. The Richard Parsons also is practically laden, and will sail within the next few days. Present rates are, say, Melbourne, 24c; Sydney, 24c; Brisbane, .'3oc ; Hobart, 32c; Wellington and Auckland, 30c (probably)." Yesterday afternoon the Fiji steamer Arawata hauled off the No. 2 jetty to take her departure for Suva and Levuka, but, owing to the lowness of the tide, took the ground for about three minutes, but got away without trouble afterwards. She takes a large general cargo and about a dozen passengers. ARRIVAL OF THE SHIP DUNEDIN. When a full-rigged ship was sighted on the coast on Friday afternoon last, there was but little hesitation anion" those connected with shipping in dubbing the approaching vessel the N.ZIS. Co.'s Waitangi, which is now 117 days out, but this surmise was doomed to be incorrect, for as the ship made the port in tow of the tug Awhina, she was observed to be living the house flag of the Shaw Savill and Albion Co., and was quickly made out to be the Dunedin, Captain A. F. Roberts, from London. As the Dunedin had a quantity of explosives on board she cast anchor off St. George's Bay. The Dunedin comes into port in excellent condition, and brings a full cargo of mixed merchandise, whicli is valued at £35,900. Her twelve passengers speak in high terms of the care and courtesy of Captain Roberts to make the voyage a pleasant one. The Dunedin is well-known in Auckland, having brought a cargo here last summer. She is a splendid iron ship of 1250 tons, and is fitted with refrigerating machinery. She is expected to load back with frozen meat at one of the Southern ports. On her previous visit, the Duuedin made the fastest run of the season—viz., 82 days, and the present passage is not a bad one, the distance being £°S°Y£SiMU nm *jr&e trip~ourt&> captain kindly furnishes the following memorandum :The ship left the East India Dock at 1 p.m. on October 6th, and took in her explosives at Gravesend, landing the pilot at Torbay on the Bth. Light westerly airs prevailed down Channel and across the Bay of Biscay, being succeeded by calms and variable breezes, until October 31st, when squally rainy weather set in for a couple of days. The S.E. trades were picked up in I'll N. on NoI vember 6th, and the Equator was crossed the same day in 26'15 W. The trades proved [ fresh, and the vessel was carried by them to 29'46 S. On November 11th Trinadad was sighted, and letters sent home. Light breezes from various quarters prevailed till the meridian of the Cape of Good Hope was passed on November 29th. On December 3rd Prince Edward Island was sighted, and three days later the Crozets, light winds from the ] west prevailing. . The easting was run down about the 46th parallel, moderate breezes I ranging from N.W. to N.S.W. being experienced, with one or two days' rain. The meridian of Cape Leeuwin was passed on December 18th, and the southernmost point of Tasmania on the 24th. Christmas Day was a beautiful day, and was honoured with true English heartiness. Light winds brought the ship to the New Zealand coast, the first point of which Cape Maria van Diemen— being sighted on January 2nd. Down the coast light airs brought the ship slowly to port, which was reached as described. LOSS OF THE JOHN BRYCE. The American ship John Bryce, 1968 tons, Captain Timothy Murphy, was abandoned at sea on December 8 in latitude 20deg S. and longitude 165 W. . She was disabled in a hurricane on the 7th. One man was washed overboard and drowned; the others (23 in number) reached Samoa in a small boat oil the 16th inst. The John Bryce sailed from Puget Sound on the 18th October, bound for Melbourne with 1,452,000 feet of rough lumber on board. The name of the man who was washed overboard was Martin Nillson.
