BY TELEGRAPH.

AUCKLAND. September 23.—The Southern Cross has arrived from Napier. x , , iT _ ~ The Taranaki is announced to leave for the South on Friday morning, with the English mail, via Suez. LYTTELTON. September 23rd.—Arrived, 9.30 a.m.; ‘Wellington, from ‘Wellington. Soaahell, from Hobart Town. The Oreti, from the South, put in windbound. She is bound for Napier. PORT CHALMERS. - September 22nd.—A very heavy N.E. gale is blowing. The Star of the South, for Lyttelton, put back twice. The Pakeha, brig, and United Brothers, schooner, cleared out from Oamaru and put in for shelter. They lost their anchors. The ship Result arrived in harbour yesterday morning, from Newcastle, with a full cargo, consisting chiefly of coal and maize. She left Newcastle on the 12th inst, and experienced strong westerly and northwesterly gales during the passage. A few days after sailing one of the sailors fell from the main royal yard, where he was stowing a sail, and in his descent managed to stop his further fall by catching in the main, topmast cross-trees, fortunately receiving only slight injury. Strange to say, a somewhat similar accident occurred to a seaman on the same ship during her last trip from this port to Newcastle, but with much more serious result, as the poor fellow had each leg broken in two places. Captain Jarvis very skilfidly set the limbs, and the man progressed satisfactorily. Alt preliminary difficulties relative to the cargo of the Strathnaver have now been settled, and the ship is busily discharging. The schooner Marion is now receiving a quantity of railway iron for Greymouth. All the available ground on the Reclaimed Land, at the breastwork, is now being rapidly taken up by the number of iron pipes landing, ex J. A. Thomson. In Newcastle harbour, during the heavy westerly gale on Sunday night, the ship Glamorganshire swung across the bow of the Ardencraig, where she remained until daylight yesterday morning, when the vessels were cleared. Both vessels have sustained damage, -.xpixa bavgnft-RacaiA a.nfl ship Inverallen also collided in a similar manner, the latter vessel losing her maintop gallantmasfc. It is said that these collisions have "arisen in consequence of the loaded vessels being moored among vessels in ballast.— Newcastle Daily Pilot, August 25. A Long Passage. —The clipper ship City of Agra arrived in this port on Saturday, from Lyttelton, after a long passage of 22 days. Captain Young reports leaving Lyttelton oh the 30th ultimo, but was becalmed off the port for two days; from that to the 14th had adverse gales; passed the Snares on the 15th, and from thence to this port she has made a very fair run of seven days. The ship has come on to this port to load a cargo of coal for Melbourne, where she will load for London, having been chartered for the round voyage.— lbid. Tit: Wrecked Steamer Paterson. — The purchaser of the p.s. Paterson, Captain Ellis, has been busy getting what he can from her. From the fore peak a splendid nine or ten inch warp was fished out, that we imagine ought to have been brought into use when she was stranded, instead of being lost sight of. —Taranaki Ne ws, Sept. 17. A New. Purchase, —The Endeavour, topsail schooner, 79 tons, Captain Dick, arrived from Oamaru at 1.30 a.m. yesterday* and came to anchor off the end of the pier. She is a new vessel, brought over from Australia, and is owned by Messrs. Meek and Co., of Oamaru- She was built by Mr. Rodgers, of Brisbane, She was especially intended for the trade which so suddenly sprang up to the Palmer River. On that trade waning, she was sold, her purchasers being her present owners, who intend to run her in our coastal trade. Her measurement is 78ft. over all, IDft. beam, and Sft. depth of hold. Her,present rig was found inconvenient for this coast during the voyage she has made from Oamaru to Napier, thence to Havelock and Oamaru, and part of the object of her present visit to Port Chalmers is to have her rig altered, and a false keel put on her. She will therefore have, if possible, to be decked for that jnirpose. Her foremast is to be unshipped and replaced by a new one capable of carrying double-topsail yards, which style of rig will make her much easier worked. As a sea boat she bears a good character, but will be greatly improved by her alterations. She brings with her cargo partly for Dunedin, but the princijial part is for transhipment to Melbourne and Sydney.—Otago Guardian, Sept. 16,
