She is a fore-and-aft schooner named the ’ Toera, and we have no hesitation In saying that she is one of the most beautiful models that has ever visited this place. She is a clipper all oyer, and as ' pretty a schooner as a critical eye need desire to dwell • ; upon—her rise of floor, fineness of "ends and.easy lines, combined with her well placed masts, ensuring for her fast sailing and good sea qualities. The Torea - was built at Auckland. Sire left Kaipara on Saturday afternoon last, and had southerly wind the moat . part of the way; Her cargo consists of kauri timber. The s.s. Napier sailed for Foxton at 9.15 p.m. yesterday. • Steam was got up on board the s.s. Taranaki yesterday for the purpose of testing the pipe joints, &c,, ‘Only a working pressure of steam was got on the boiler, and the engines were set going quite slow. • - Everything worked very satisfactory. It is expected .:: that she will be ready to make her trial trip in a week hence.
