The scow Ida, laden with baulk timber, from the Little Barrier to Auckland, capsized j off the southern point of the Kawau on Sunday, Oct. 23 The crew and passengers had a very narrow escape of their lives in reaching the shore from the scow in the ship's dingy, the little boat having to carry rive adults and three children over a mile in a heavy choppy sea. After having reached the shore they proceeded to the residence of Mr. Holgate, where they were hospitably received, and next morning landed at Mahurangi Heads in the steam'yacht Kawau. At this place the Rose Casey took them on board, and proceeded to the scene of the capsized vessel, and endeavoured to tow her to a safe anchorage. The captain of the Rose Casey, finding he made very little progress with the submerged scow, determined to raise her, which was successfully accomplished, and the Ida was towed into one of the bays of the Kawau, where she was beached, and where the necessary repairs can be effected. ARRIVAL OF THE WARRIMOO. The splendid new steamship Warrimoo, which is to inaugurate the new service between this colony and Australia, arrived in harbour on Wednesday, Oct. 19, from Sydney. The Warrimoo left Newcastle-on-Tyne at 8 p.m. on the 31st of August, and experienced strong head winds, increasing to a hard gale in the English Channel, during which time the Warrimoo proved herself an excellent seaboat. Reached Plymouth on the 2nd of September at 3.15 p.m., and left again on the 3rd at 4.5 p.m., after embarking passengers. Experienced moderate winds to N.E. trades, which were picked up in 31deg. N.. light trades to 14deg. N., thence fresh S. W. winds to the equator, which was crossed on the 14th; thence strong S. E. trades and S. E. winds to the Cape of Good Hope, which was passed on the morning of the 22nd, and ship reported. The westerly winds were very moderate in strength, and fine weather experienced to the meridian of Cape Leuwin, which was passed on the morning of the 6th October. From thence to Wilson's Promontory strong easterly winds. CapeOtway was passed at 6 p.m. on the 10th, Wilsona Promontory at 4 a.m. on the 11th, and Gabo at 5.30 p.m the same day. From Gabo to Sydney experienced light northerly winds and fine weather. Entered Sydney Heads at 10.15 p.m. on the 12th October. Distance steamed from Plymouth to Sydney, 12.45S miles; actual steaming time, 37 days 18 hours. The best day's work was 362 knots, or a fraction over 15 knots per hour. Leaving Sydney for this port on Saturday morning, October 15, the steamer arrived as above.

On Wed., Oct. 12, Messrs. Donald and Edenborongh's Island steamer Richmond, Captain R. G. Hutton, arrived in harbour from Tahiti and Rarotonga, with a cargo of pearl shell, copra, fruit, and general Island produce. After exchanging cargo she again took her departure on October IS, on a return trip to the islands. On Tuesday, Oct. 25, the cargo steamer Lincolnshire, tinder charter to the Shaw, Savill, and Albion Company, arrived in harbour from London, via lias Palmas and Hobart, after a rather lengthy passage, which is accounted for by a continuance of head winds and seas throughout the voyage. This is the steamer first trip here, having previously been engaged in the Indian and London trade. She is a tine steel steamer of 1721 tons, and was built by Messrs W. Gray and Co., of West Hartlepool, in 1891, for Messrs. Money, Wigram and Co., who chartered her to the Shaw, Savill, and Albion Co. for this voyage. She comes into port in fine order, everything being in the pink of condition.

The Tyser Company's steamer, Star of Victoria, Captain J. Smyth, arrived in harbour at 6 a.m. on Friday, October 21, from London, via Melbourne and Sydney, bringing about 1500 tons of general cargo, about 900 tous of which are for this port. The steamer comes into port in splendid order, a , fact reflecting credit upon both Captain i Smyth and his officers, considering that the ' steamer has been constantly on the move since she left London. The steamer sailed for Wellington on Oct. 25, and' from there proceeds to the Bluff to ship frozen meat, etc., and then goes on to Napier to finish, leaving there for London. The Union S.S. Co.'s Island steamer Upolu, Captain George Crawshaw, arrived in harbour at a quarter-past 2 o'clock on Saturday afternoon from Samoa, Fiji, and Tonga with a cargo of sugar, fruit, etc. The Norwegian barque New Zealand, Captain J. Leonhardseu, arrived in harbour on Saturday morning from New York, via Dunedin, and Lyttelton, bringing a part cargo of general merchandise from the former port, and a quantity of grain from the latter. On Monday the French war cruiser Duchaffault arrived in harbour from Melbourne, via Port Chalmers, and Wellington, having left the latter port on Saturday morning last, and experiencing pleasant weather on the run up. She will remain here for a few days, and will then proceed to France via Callao. On Wednesday afternoon the schooner Christine. Captain John McLiver, arrived in harbour somewhat unexpectedly, being bound from Long Island to the Bluff with a cargo of guano, the reason of the vessel nutting in here being that she is leaking badly. On Tuesday afternoon the Union S.S. Co.'s steamer Taviuni, Captain R. E. Smith, arrived from Levuka and Suva with a cargo of raw sugar, fruit, etc. The Taviuni is on her first visit to this port, having recently replaced the well-known steamer Ovalau in the New Zealand-Fiji trade, she having heretofore been engaged in the trade between Melbourne and Fiji. SHIPPING SUMMARY. Shipping business generally has been quiet during the past month. Freights are both scarce and low. On October 12 the Island steamer Richmond arrived from Tahiti and Rarotonga with fruit, pearl shell, and general Island produce. She left again on the 18th with the usual consignments of meat, timber, etc. On the same d\y the barque Vivid arrived from Wollongong with a cargo of coal for the Colonial Sugar Refining Company. She left on the 18th for the Thames to load timber for Melbourne, and is expected to sail next week. On the 13th the American barque Essex, of Arnold, Cheney, and Co.'s line, arrived from New York via Wellington, and meeting with quick despatch was ready for sea on the 28th, but was detained owing to contrary winds until the 2nd inst. She takes a full cargo, consisting of 4044 cases and 772 bags kauri gum and 458 bales flax. On the 13th the American barque Doris Eckhoff, under charter to the same firm, also arrived. She has since discharged her cargo and undergone overhauling, and is now loading up with kauri gum and flax. On the same day the ketch Agnes Martin arrived from Long Island with a cargo of guano.

On October 19 the new steamer Warrimoo, of the New Zealand and Australasian Steamship Company, which has been started by Messrs. Huddart, Parker, and Co., arrived on her maiden voyage, coming across in 3 days 17£ hours. This is not such a fast passage as it was anticipated she would make, and that is accounted for by the fact that she had not sufficient time to be properly overhauled at Sydney after her voyage from Plymouth. She holds the record from Plymouth to Sydney, as her passage only occupied 37 days 18 hours. She left for the South, Hobart, and Melbourne the same day, and is expected here again about the 21st instant, when she will go on to Sydney. On October 20 the barque Kathleen Hilda arrived from Port Kembla with a cargo of coal. She is to sail for Newcaatlc to-day, to load coal back here.

Samoa, Fiji, and Tonga with sugar, fruit, etc. She left aeain for the same ports on the 3rd instant.

On the Ist instant the Union S.S. Co.'s steamer Taviuni, which has replaced the same company's steamer Ovalau in the trade, arrived from Levuka and Suva, with sugar, fruit, etc. On the 2nd instant the schooner Christine put ill here leaking while on her voyage from Long Island to the Bluff with a cargo of guano. The vessel met with some very heavy weather, during which she sprang ' a leak, and a portion of the cargo had to be jettisoned. On the 10th the Union S.S. Co.'s steamer Poherua left for Port Kembla. She has since arrived at Suva with coal, on discharge of which she loads up with sugar for this port. On the 11th the brigantine Eillan Dorian left for the Kaipara to load timber for Adelaide. On the 17th the barqueutine Yolande left for Hokianga to load timber for Melbourne. The same day the schooner Sarah Pile sailed for New York Island and Noumea, calling at Whangaruru to load timber.
