Among other work to be curried out on the Penguin, now undergoing an overhaul at Wellington, will bo the repairs to tho vessel's funnel. The funnel is bo badly in need o( repair that almost the whole of it will be renewed, Tho smoko box and funnel weigh about four or five tons. - Tho vessel will go on the slip next Wednesday, for cleaning and painting. Tho Tyficr steamer Niwaru, at present loading tm tho East Const, is duo at Wellington from Napier about Tuesday or Wednesday next. She will leave hero two or uiroe days later.

Tho launch has been named the Erlin. She is lined .with cork, and is fitted with an air* tight case forward. Tho Erlin will llonfc when full of water, tho boiler and bunkers full, and five men on her bow. Apart from the inoonyomen.ee and expouso occasioned by the delay Of' the Kuikouro» in the Lower Harbour on Friday (says the Dunedin “Evening Star”), tho vessel was successfully refloated on Friday night without serious results. The Tuiuno. not having etcam ready, was towed to tho Kaikoim* by tho Pateena, and tlio work of lightening the vessel was speedily effected. Towing operations by tho Plucky and tho suction dredge resulted In the Kaikoura being placed in suitable water after about half an hour's work. The Kaikoura berthed at the George street pier at 1 p.m. on Saturday, and commenced discharging cargo mta (o railway trucks. There is no indication of her having sustained any damage while aground in the Lower Harbour, ae damage to the bottom usually means leakage more or less through rivets being started, and the sounding of the pumps shows that ©be is not making any water. * Tho Union Company b steamer,.Mararoa. wliich during the past few years has‘earned a liberal measure of popularity m the \\ eb v lington-Lyttelton ferry service, left the lat* tor port yesterday at midday for Newcastle She enters tho Sydnoy-Hobart trade im>‘ mediately.
