The Commonwealth and Dominion Line steamer Port Melbourne, which arrived at Auckland late on Thursday night, was berthed at the King's Wharf yesterday morning. The vessel loaded at Glasgow and Liverpool, and sailed from the latter port on Msroh 14. She arrived at Colon on March 28, and cleared the Panama the following day.

' : • *■: FIONA'S STORMY TRIP. .-; ' The Colonial Sugar Company's steamer Fiona arrived from Port Kembla last evening and anchored in the stream for medical inspection. This morning she will berth at Chelsea to discharge her cargo of coal. The Fiona experienced a very stormy trip from Port Kembla, and was - eight days reaching Auokland instead of the usual five days. She cleared Port Kembla on April 12 and experienced strong easterly winds and rough seas almost as soon as she left port. The adverse weather delayed the vessel's progress and it was six days before she reached the Three Kings. Nearing the New Zealand coast the stormy conditions became worse and when the Fiona arrived off Cape Maria Van Dieman at midnight on Wednesday the wind, was blowing a hard easterly gale in fierce squalls accompanied by torrential rain. There was a heavy sea running ■• and the Fiona at times could only make about three knots against the storm. The vessel did not have a full cargo and thus, being fairly buoyant, did not ship very heavy water on deck and no damage was done. Nearing the Haurak Gulf the .weather moderated considerably .and better progress was made to port.
