On Suudav the steam collier Kiripaka arrived at Napier from Ngungura, and was to leave for Ngnnguru njain last night. The barque Royal Tar has had another quick despatch at the hinds of Mr. J. J. Craig, being discharged on Saturday mornins and sailing for Kaipara on Monday afternoon, being only 12 (lays since she sailed from Newcastle, besides having handled nearly 1300 tons coal and ballast during that short space ol time. This is the best work done by any sailing vessel up to date at this port. It is stated that arrangements have been made through Mr. John Munro, auctioneer, of Westport, for the charter of two American vessels — the George Perkins and Mary Winkleman—to load coal at Westport for San Francisco. j

THE INDRA. Early this morning the fine cargo steamer Indra arrived from South African port!', via Port Kembla. Captain T. Trotter is still in command, and reports that the Indra loaded at New York with general cargo for South African ports, making a fine run of under 28 days to Capetown. Visited Port Elizabeth and other places, and finally left Delagoa Bay oil October 20, reaching Port Kembla on the 14 th inst., after a very rough passage. Took in 1500 tons of coal, and left for Auckland on Thursday last, and met with fine Weather on the passage across.

The Union Company's steamer Manapourl having been detained at Napier, owing to a heavy southerly gale, will not arrive at this port until to-morrow night. Her departure for Sydney has consequently been postponed until Friday at noon. THE FIRE ON THE RIMUTAKA. The following appeared in the London Morning Post of October 5 — A Renter's despatch from Capetown states that the New Zealand mail steamer Rimut&ka, which arrived at Capetown on the 14th of September from England, has had an eventful voyage. The captain states that on the 6th ultimo afire was reported, and it was found that the charcoal used for the refrigerating chambers had caught alight. The flames were extinguished, hut during the night the fire broke out afresh, and it was evidently more serious. The passengers on deck, and for a time considerable anxiety prevailed. The officers and men, however, with the aid of some passengers, made gallant efforts to subdue the outbreak, and succeeded in doing so in a very short time. No material damage was done.

THE LEADING WIND CASE.

We understand that the Supreme Court of the United States lias recently made a decision which virtually amounts to a con* demnation of all the proceedings that were taken about three vaars ago in this port against Captain Hinckley, of the ship Leading Wind. The decision arose over a British ship called the J. W. Parker, which caught fire in Calcutta loaded with jute for New York. The law of America is thus brought into conformity with English practice prior to the innovations made in IS7G by the late Chief Justice Cockburn. Mr. Connolly, the American Consul at this port, who has a full report of the Parker case, has written to Mr. Thomas H. Mabin congratulating him on the triumph of his views.
