_When the steamer Geelong returned to port late on Thursday night we ascertained that there were two square-rigged vessels at the Heads instead of one as reported yesterday morning. The Geelong- went out lor the Yankee, ■which, as we surmised, turned out to be the ship Wildwood, from Puget Sound However as she was drawing twenty-one feet of water, whilst the tide was nearly low, towing her in was postponed to yesterday, and not to return empty handed the Qeelong fastened to the barque Annie Lisle, which had come up from northward meantime, brought her to the port, and anchored her in Lower Deborah Bay. The Annie Lisle is from Kaipara, with a lar-'e cargo «f timber consigned to Messrs Guthrie aud Larnach. Bhe has made a moderately fair passage of nine days having left Kaipara on the 30th December, with a fresh northerly breeze, that took her to abreast of Cape Egmont by the following day. Off the Cape the wind went into south and S.E. and blew heavily from the latter quarter, veering to east towards the finish. The barque weathered the gale and.hove-to under lower topsails. Strong easterly weather prevailed until the 3r,i inst., and then the •wind veered to N.W., and teok her clear of the Strait and to Cape Campbell by the sth. A fresh southerly gale, that lasted 12 hours, muzzled her there, and after that light variable weather prevailed until she reached Port as above. Captain Marshall reports that the brig Alexandra and barque Harriet Armitage were loading at Kaipara ior this port when lie left. The Brigantine Mary Webster was waiting for her turn at the null. The Annie Lisle is lightering at the Port, and then goes to Duuedin to finish discharging. The ketch Isabella arrived from Catliu's River yesterday, and passed on to Dunedin. She brings a cargo of timber, as usual.

We are pleased to report the continued well-dome ff the steamer Kasby. She returned to the port she hails from yesterday, after making a very successful Tound trip to Wellington, Newcastle, and Sydi ey That the boat is up to her work is demonstrated in a very satisfactory manner by the time she has made the round trip having been accomplished in twenty-eight days. The Easby left this port on the 12th of December, and steamed to Wellii:"ton against strong head winds in 43 hours, arriving there on the 14th. Left again the came day, and ran across to Sydney under steam alone (canvas being unavailable in the light variable winds that prevaued) in sJdtys, Newcastle being gained on the -.Oth. Shipped 1400 tons of coal, and left for Sydney on the 24th December, arrived there the same day, and it b^ing holi-day-time, was detained there until the 30th, and then had to leave 200 tons of cargo behind her, no hands being available to ship it. She left Sydney at 4p m. on the 30th, had light easterly weather the first two days out and then strong westerly winds to Cape Farewell light; which was sighted oil the sth instant, at 2.30 a.m., Wellington harbour being gained in the evening of the same day. Disembarked three passengers and some general cargo, aud left for the South at 3.30 p.m. on Wednesday last; experienced a strong N. W. gale across the St.ait to the Kaikoras, and thence had light variable winds and fine weather to this port. She reached the Heads yesterday morning and steamed inside at tide time in the afternoon. The Easby brings 18 passengers, and a quantity of general cargo, besiaes coal, for this port.

The Wildwood. a stately full-rigged ship of 1100 tons register, built at Washington Territory in 1871, and hailing from San Francisco, was towed into Port by the Geelong yesterday afternoon, and anchored off Deborah Bay. Sue is commanded by Captain Frost, yho was master of the barque Nord Brabant, when that vessel came here three years ago with Coolies from China. The >V ildwood is a remarkably fine ship, and looks well aloft with herheavy brightspars and black yards. H er length is 212 feet, and beam 40 feet. That »he is pretty fine underneath is evidenced by her great oraught ol 21 feet, and yet the ship is in good trim. t>ne comes from Puget &ound with a cargo of yellow pine sleepers and other timber loaded at the mill at stl i 4 ,■ on the main- Sne left the Inlet on the oVem, cr > and after lying in the stream four days, discharged her pilot on the 6th, and proceeded to sea, T>irrin.r .XT bei "S tak°n from Cape Flattery. «mL tWo da>s heayy southerly gales were £i?«f THp \l Ud weather ed hove-to under lower topSftrJlr he weMher ranged, and held light and toV' e "Orlh "", right across the ™twith TWUne- no regular N.K Trade being f w il h quator was c?ossed on the 29th Nt£ JT^ri hPr wi iV V- and stiU northerly weather followed her, winds hanging from N N w in w N w without the slightest si|n of ™ si'Yrade. ke'aw and almost continuous rain fell both south and nonh of the Line in the trade belts. The S E trade belt was leftinlat. 2d north and long l» w Banks Peninsula, off which & c barque w£, "although not m sight of land, on the Ist inst. Moderate north and N. E. winds prevaried. Thence she ran for the Heads, and arrived off there on the 2nd, but the wea ther being thick as a hedge and threatening she made for tie oiling again, was there becalmed durinu- Monday and Tuesday, then weathered a B.W. gale°which lasted till Wcduesd'.y, and being succeeded by a norlcarter and clear weather the barque fetched the anchorage off Taiaroa Head on 'ihursday night, and was towed in as above.

Captain Fiost, of the Wildwood, reports having, on the 17th November, lat. 27 N., long. 128 W., spoken the ship Favourite, from Cardiff to fsan Francisco, ISS

days out. The Favourite sent a boat alongside the Wild wood, and was supplied with fresh vegetables by ths latter ship. Our old friend the barque Glencoe is again here from Hobart Town, and has made a very creditable passage of ten days. She has been rather better than one month doing the round trip, the date of her departure from this port for Hobart Town being December sth. That she was so long was entirely due to detention in port, for she made a slashing run of ■six days to Hobart Town ; one of, if not\ the quickest on record. Whilst in liobart Town she was overhauled aloft,. and received new foretopsail yards. She now comes with a full cargo of ,timber for Messrs Guthrie and Xarnaeh, and a few We have to thank Captain Jasper for late Hobart Town files, and a glance at the log, from which it appeared that the Glencoe left Hobart Town on the 29th December, and cleared the land the same day, Cape Pillar being the last departure. The wind was strong from the S. *r., but next day hauled round to the North and held there'a stiff gale until the 2nd inst. "On the 3rd it backed to S.W. again, and blew up a heavy gale, the barque running before it in her lower foretopsail, foresail, and foretopmast staysail. The wind held strong and westerly to the sth, on which day tho Snares were sighted, and thence to Cape Saunders N.W. breezes prevailed. From the Cape to the Heads, which were reached yesterday afternoon, the barque's progress was impeded by variable airs and oins. She was towed in by the Geelong, and proceeds to Dunedin on this morning's tide.

The steamer Sam6on left for Oamaru yesterday morning.

The ship Nelson was unmoored early yesterday morning and brought to the Railway Tier and remoored in a proper discharging berth. The steamer Southern Cross was undocked yesterday, and proceeded to imnedin. Whilst under Murray and Co's hands her bottom was thoroughly cleaned and recoated.

The steamer Beautiful Star took her departure for Timnru and other ports last evening. This afternoon the steamer Phoebe leaves on her return North.

The new steamer Egmont came down from Dunediu yesterday, and wa6 swung at the Carey's Bay dolphin for ths adjustment of her compasses. She was to. leave for Wanganui last night. We wish her success, and as a specimen of Dunedin shipwrights'and engineering work, we are not ashamed of her. She is a credit to the Port and to her builder.

We notice, by the Herald, that the barque Chevert, which left here for Sydney on the 9th, arrived there on the 28th. It is proposed to place her in the South Sea Island trade.

The s.s. Lady of the Lake arrived at midnight from the Molyneux.
