The brigantine Dare Pratt has berthed at the Hobson-street Wharf to unload her freighting from Sydney. Yesterday afternoon the barque Devonport was towed out from or berth at No. 2 [titty by the p.a Victoria, and sec sail for hangar in ballast. At the Northern port she is to fill up with timber for Wellington. Advices from London state that the ship Mairi Balm sailed for this port on September )th, while the Shaw, Savul vessel, Oamaru, jyas expected to clear about September 28. At the Customs House, yesterday, Mr. Thos. Hill, the Collector, be*an a preliminary in- j luiry into the causes of the collision between the steamers Ruby and Britannia. Owing to a delay in the arrival of the Southern mails at the Manukau, the R.M.s. Alameda did not sail for San Francisco till 4 p.m. yesterday. She took but few additional passengers from this port, and less than the average amount of cargo. She has, nevertheless, a very valuable freighting, as amongst the cargo shipped hero were 17 b»x«s bullion, valued at £75,975, in addition to which she lias safely stowed away from Sydney, 40 boxes sovereigns, worth £300,000. In consoquenoe of the damage received by the Ruby while in oollision with the Britannia, en Saturday evening, # the s.s. Ruby will not sail for Paeroa until 1 p.m. to-day. At 6 o'clock last evening the Union S.S. Co.'b little steamer Maori sailed for Fiii, where she is to replace the s.s. Oreti in tne inter-is service, the latter vessel returning to this port. The well-known Island-trader Christine lias left port for her periodical trip to Norfolk Island and Noumea. She took a full cargo of provisions, timber, and sundries, besides several passengers. A new steamer, the Lord Bangor, is announced to load wool at Sydney for New York and Boston, under the auspices of Mews. Dalgety and Co. (Limited). The I teenier is on her way to Melbourso from Japan with a cargo of coal. She is a Gree-nock-built steamer, launched the presont year from Russell and Co.'s yards, and is ow«d by the Irish Shipowners' Company (Limited;, of Belfast, who have a " Lord line—the Lord O'Neil, Lord Lansdowne, Lord WoLseley, and others. She is 320 tee* lone, 42 feet 5 inches beam, and 18 feet 9 inches depth of hold, moulded - 21 feet &

; A WARM ROUTE. [ The heat in the Red Sea this season seems to be intense. Every vessel that comes that way to Australia brings news of the trying weather experienced there. According to i one of the Oroya's passengers, though the thermometer only registered a maximum of | 96 degrees, the heat was greatly felt by all on board. Sitting on the upper deck was no j relief from the oppressive temperature, and ! several of the lady passengers fainted in coni sequence of the heat. The reports of steamers arriving at Colombo, received by mail, are to the same effect. The captain of the Caledouien, which arrived on September 11, complains of the heat, and says it was terrible. Fortunately, there were no casualties on his vessel from this cause ; but for five days passengers say life was almost unbear--1 able, and sleep in suoh a temperature out of i the question. The cantaiu of the Dieppols j also bore testimony to the fierce heat experii enced during the same part of the jourj iiey out. Standing on tbo bridge, he ; said, was a fearful ordeal, the temj perature there being 40 degrees centij grade, equal to 115 degrees Fahrenheit. The 1 temperature in his cabin was 4*2 degrees centij grade, and one of his firemen succumbed to the heat.
