Captain Fairchild has kindly furnished us with the following report of the late trip of the Government p.s. Luna, which arrived in our harbor yesterday, ? month and two days’cruise :—The p.s. Luna left \\ ellington on the 7th of August last, having on hoard Captain Johnson of the Marine Department: the object of the voyage being to make a survey of certain portions of the West Coast, and to furnish a leport of certain dangerous points in the navigation. She first steamed to Kaurangi L’oint. After several days had weather, the expedition succeeded in survey--nig a shoal there. The vessel then proceeded to \\ ostport, and surveyed the harbor and the coast between Ihdler and the Steeples, a portion of coast which had not, been properly surveyed before. Tile Luna then pioceedeil to Hokitika, where Captain Johnson selected a site for a lighthouse. After a day or so spent here, the Luna proceeded to the Grey, for the purpose of coaling. The vessel sailed south in the , lection of Jackson’s Bay-. The Luna experienced here very had weather, and as the coals ran out, she had to leave tiie survey only partially effected. AVfiile m Jackson’s Bay the captain captured three seals, which he has succeeded in bringing to Wellington alive On her way home to Wellington the Luna called m to the Buffer, and employed some time in taking out some snags which impeded the navigation. I’ roni thence the captain made a call in to Wanganui Inlet fertile purpose of coaling. There is abundance of coal here, at 10s. per head, right from the mines. Ihe next place that was surveyed was Cook rock where the steamer Queen was wrecked some few years ago. Ihe captain informs us that he has passed a stormier month during this last trip than lie ever expelienced during the same month in any prey-ions year. ARRIVAL OF THE SHIP lIALCIONE. The A 1 iron clipper ship Ilalcione, 842 tons register under the command of Captain J. E. Crokcr, from London, cast anchor in AYellington harbor on Sunday morning, at 10 o’clock. The following is the report of the voyage. On Tuesday, May 25, left the East India (locks, and anchored off Gravesend on the 20th and embarked the immigrants. The ship having passed survey, a family of five persons was sent on shore with measles. Landed the pilot at the Downs on the 28th at I p.m. On Sunday the 30th, landed the chanlid pilot Jit the Start. At 1 p.ni. on the same (lav passed the Lizard. On June 9, the doctor reported two cases of measles, which in tyvo days increased to twelve. Turned the largest boat on the skids into an hospital, so as to isolate the sick as much as possible. On the 17tn lost the N.K. trades, and experienced light S. and S.S.E. winds and calms for ten days. On the 24th there were eighteen cases of measles reported. On the 29th day of the same month, caught the K. E. trade winds, very strong and southerly, the ship just clearing the Brazilian coast all the way down. On July 5, tacked ship about thirty miles oif Abatross Island, and stood to the eastward for twenty-four hours. Tacked again to the southward, and lost the S.E. trades, after which light airs and calms for five days, the ship only making eighteen or twenty miles per day. On June 20, passed Tristan D Acunha, and experienced fresh northerly and westerly winds, with fine weather, until in longitude 50 E., when the weather underwent a complete change, the barometer rising and falling suddenly, with a heavy N.AV, sea, which continued with heavy gales coming on suddenly, the barometer falling as much as o’4 per hour. On the 14th August spoke the Rodney. On the loth met with a heavy gale from the SAY., which for six hours blew a perfect hurricane, xvith a terrific sea. Ifove-to at 8.30 a.m. At daylight on the lGtli, wind and sea moderating, kept ship away. From this date experienced fresh breezes to Tasmania, which was passed on the 24th August. After which had very light westerly winds until \\ ednesday, the Ist September, when Cape Egmont was sighted at noon. On Thursday, 2nd September, at G p.m., was hoarded by the Taranaki pilot and Immigration officers. On the 3rd September at 030 a.m., anchored at Taranaki roadstead, where great delay was experienced in getting the immigrants away. Ninety-one of those intended for Taranaki were landed in two boats. The ship was obliged to heave up her anchor and proceed to sea. on account of a northwester and a heavy sea rolling in. All or nearly all the immigrants might have been landed (as the captain informs ns) if proper attention had been paid to the ship, as she let go her anchor at daylight close in shore, as. agreed on by the Immigration Commissioner the evening before. After the ship xvas brought up no boats came off for at least an hour, and then the steamer which went ashore for another boat came off again without one. Towed the first boat ashore and then brought another off, with an interval of about three-quarters of an hour between each boat. The result xvas that the remainder of the immigrants intended for Taranaki had to be brought on to Wellin"ton The ship. dragged her anchor xvitli forty-five fathoms of chain in Taranaki roadstead and was obliged to bring away with her the Taranaki pilot and one of the Immigration officers on to AYellington. On .Satmday, 4th, received the AYellington pilot, aboard the wind blowing strong from the NAY. At 8 am’ yesterday morning xvas taken in tow bv the s.s’ Ladybird, and anchored as above stated. Eight children died of measles during the voyage, and there xxero three births. A sextant, accompanied by a testimonial, xvas presented to the captain by the passengers and immigrants. The Rev. Air. Ahiles, wife and one child, and Airs. AYoodford and family took steamer at Taranaki for Nelson. The folloxving is the list of immigrants for this port:—Samuel Ind, John ( hire, George Robinson, Thomas .Mitchell, .las M Brav, Alatthexv Berrymoro; James, Emily, and Albert, Kettle; Samuel Irvine.

ARRIVAL OF THE BARQUE DILAAVUR The composite ship Dilawur, A 1 at Llovds, under the command of Captain John Dice, left London on the 11th of Alay. She had a fair passage as far as the Equator, which xvas crossed on June 17, and then light xveather to the meridian of the Cape, July-i-> From xvhicli time until the Snares xvere sighted, on August 27, experienced exceedingly hud 'xveather lie longboat- xvas smashed to pieces, and considerable damage done to the bulwarks and other parts of the ship. On August 29 the ship xvas off Cape Lookout mountain, from which date siie experienced bad weather, until 10 a.m. on Sunday. A southerly xvind then sprang up, taking the siiip into Wellington harbor, xvhere she anchored at 5 p.m.
