WEATHER FORECAST.

Captain Edwin forecasts a heavy gale from the northward, changing by the west and southwest between midnight on the Cth and midnight on the 9th. Captain tdwin states that the hurricane reported by the Wainui tiavelled in a south-south-west direction until about 5 p.m on the 22nd ult., when it curved to the south-east, being then about 150 miles to the eastward of the East Cape. It passed north of the Chatham Islands, where it has probably caused heavy easterly gales with heavy rain and unusually heavy .seas. The general route taken by these storms has been followed in this instance, but they sometimes come much closer to the coast.

The brigantine Darcy Pratt having completed the discharge of tier coal; has cleared out for Sydney. She is to load timber at the Thames, and will take 140,000 feet. Discharging operations were briskly carried out at the ship Blenheim yesterday, and Captain Colville may be congratulated upon the splendid condition in which the packages are being landed. Yesterday early the s.s. Clansman arrived with general cargo and passengers from the North, and sailed again in the evening for Tauranga. The s.s. Wainui has Rone into the Auckland dock for a general overhaul. On Monday next H.M.s. Orlando is to be docked in the Calliope Dock. In addition to cleaning and re-painting, she is to have a new deck . laid down, and sundry other repairs. The work of docking the big warship and shoring her up is to be entrusted to Mr. G. Niccol who performed this work before. For the alterations and repairs tenders are now being invited by Capt. C. J. Barlow. At Mr. G. Niccol s yards, North Shore, the new schooner which he has been building for some time past to run in the intercolonial trade, in conjunction with the well-known trader Clansman, is rapidly approaching completion. Mr. Niccol has also started to build a smart little fore and aft schooner for some Tongan chiefs at Vavau. She is to be 60 tons, and from her lines seems as if she will be fast. She is more designed for passenger than for cargo carrying.
