The approach of the second dtoamer ordered by the Union Steam Ship Co., was heralded yesterday forenoon bysiguul at Taiaroa Head Station, and soon Afterwards tha steamer her*olf—the expected Taupo- - showed up between the Heads, aud steamed inside. ■Having twenty-three passengers on board she brought up below the shipping, was then psutaed by the Health and Cuiitouw (ilticula, and when the tido turned on ebb came up Harbour and moored alongside the Don T.ttttii. Her arrival qrrated less excitement than that "of her predecessor the Hawea. The latter had Blackened public curiosity, necauxe it was gonorally uudcrstiiod that they were twin sister vessels, the one the counterp >rt of the other. Still several of Captain Macfarlano's friends boarded the Taupo to welcome him, and the tine vexsel he brought out. The Taupo 'is the facsimile of the llaweaat all points, tonnage, build, power, description of engine, and appointments are precisely similar, bhe has a aaloon no lesii (.'XtuiiHivc auu beautifully fitted up, and a handsomely arranged Biuoking houie and companion on thu )>oop. With two such boats ts the flawea undTnupo on tlie const, the Union Company cannot fail to command a large share ef the trade roing. Tile Taupo has made a good run of sixty-two Says from Glasgow, allowing -for difference of time. Bho left the I ail of the Bank on the 30th April, eteamed down Channel against strong head winds, and eiearad the land next day. HadS.W. winds for three d*y«, and then variable winds to the N.E. Trade,- which was ' met with well north. On the 11th May, she put into St Vincent for coal, shipped 100 ton», and left on the I2th. Lotfe the Trade iv 6 north, and creased th« Line on the 19th May, in Ion?. 8 \V. The S.K Trade wu met with on the Line, and thence eho rande nearly a 4lrwt course for the crossing-place of the Cape meridian. Crossed the meridian of Greenwich on the 24th May, kt. lt>.3(S H., aud that of the Capo on the , 2nd June, lat. 87 S. B.E. and noutherly winds attended her until she was off the pitch of the Cap*, and there she picked up the westerlies, and uudtr iteam and tail, commenced her run across the gouthorn Oce&n. Straight and good running .wm lnnde, the etciuner doin,; fram eight to ten knotß per hour. Tha meridian of the Leuwin was croesed cm the 22nd June. The S.Yf, Cape of th« Middle Island wits sighted on the Ist July. The Holander was p-i.iEe<l at 3 p.ui the same day, and at 9 p.m. she cleared the Strait, ctnu passed tha Nuggets at.3.30 p.m yesterday, and arrived at the Port it'll n.in. She ran liar longitude down on about 40, aud encountered Several severe gales, of which one on the 2Sth June was very heavy, and put the Taupo on her mettle, She however behaved well, but shipped Msverol heavy seas, one of them tumbling on the hurricane dock, and jmashed one of the starboard boats. Mr M'Queen 5« chief en;jino-rof thcTanpo, and Mr Cromarty chief officer. She will not require ducking, for, being coated with the superior auti-fouling composition known tis " Crammond's," her bottom is remarkably •ileari. Hence she will soon commence running in the iiiterpro'pineial service, in which we wish her very much success. Mr James Mills, the manager of the Union Company, and Mr Darling, the managing engineer, boarded the Taupo soon after i-he irrived, and expressed themselves as thoroughly satisfied with her. She brought no cargo with her. ARRIVAL OF THE CRUSADER. The American barque Crusader, a staunch craft of the old uchqo', arrived at the Port yesterday afternoor. fromNeW York. ThflCrusaderisii vessel of some 24yearn ef age, but her long course ef service has produced but little effect upon her condition—for, having ben most carefully built of live oak throughout and copperflistened, she is nearly as soun« now as ou the day she was launched. Cuptain Gnrham—who Is also her owner—reports having left New York on-the 10th of llareh. Fine weather and westerly winds were experienced to the Trade, whtcli was picked up on March SOth in Int. 28 N. It was not a very brilliant affair, and gave out in 3 N.. and was immediately succeeded by the S^E. Trade wind. The Equator w*B crossed on the Oth April, long. 25 \V.; and the Trade, although light, hanging well to the eastward, she made t, good course across the South Atlantic; earned S.E. and southerly winds right up to the meridian of the Cape, crossing it on the 20th May in lat. 38. Off the Cape, the westerlies foumi her, and helil fresh and steady to St. Paul's—the run tlience being made on about the 88th parallel. She sighted the Island in passing, and thence shaped a course to pass about Sdeg. south of Tasmania; wasfavouredall along by westerly windshanging totlienorthw ard, and carried them until the Snares were sighted on the i»th ult. Here she was muzzled by a SB. gale, but being kept at it weathered Stewart'B Island comfortably ; then edged away, and with the gale leading her, rim the coast down and arrived off the Heads on Thursday evening, stood off and on all ni"ht and was towed inside bytheGeelong yesterday afternoon. She U consigned to Messrs Ualgety, Mchols, and Co.,and briiigsa full cargo, o( which half Is for thia port and half for Wellington. Her passage occupied 11-i daya from port ta port. The Nbw Zealand Steamship Company's «.s. Taranaki, Captain Lloyd, fetched the Port yesterday mornin", and moored at the- Railway Pier. She was due on the previaus d-iy, but owing to the very heavy weather experienced during the passage from Lytteltou, she did not reach the Heads until after dark, »nd bo anchored there for the night. Captain Lloyd report* the tale to have been exceedingly heavy, and attended with very severe squalls and a high southerly sea. It blew hard from the time she passed the Peninsula until nlie gained the leo of tlio Heads. The passage from the North to Lyttclton wita marked by fine, moderate, and light weather. Prevailing HOUth-eosUrly from tho Manukau to Nelson, and thonce to Wellington and up to Lyttelton north-ve^crly. From Lyttelton the wind held at about S.S.W., inclining eoutherly, force about 8. We thank Mr Kdminfiton, the purser, for the delivery of our Northern exchanges and the report Tl c htter states that the Taranakl left the JUniikau at 1.20 p.m. on the 20th, arrived oil Taranaki at 7.80 a.m. ntxi <iay, landed a considerable cargo, and left at 6 p m., i"rivin< at Nelson at 10 o.m. O.i the 2Hh. I*lt again at 2 p. m., but, in consequence of a thick fog which settled down, she did not ium.lj I'icton vmtil B a.m. on the 29th. Kemained one Iwur, and went on for Wellington, arrivin' thee at >Z p •■»■ -Mads another short st:iy of 4J limihS to >n .1.: up iV.r l.st time, then on to Lyttelton, which'••■«■•! nhn-ii :.t iin.ni on the ,'iOtli. Put to «ea ajinui ut 3.30 p.m., and arrived here asutove. Shcbiinga

about3otousof cargo and 19 passengers, and is.to leave to-day on her return North with the outward outward European mail via' Frisco. ; . Messrs Webb and Fulton's fine stoamer:Easby, Captain Konnodv. is again here, after making another round trip to Sydney and Newcastle via coast ports. She is a little behind time on this occasion, in consequence of having to wait her turn to coal at Newcastle, sovera! targe vessels—including one or two of the China steamers-being before her. She was detained eight days in Newcastle, and also suffered a detention of three days in Sydney, on amount of the prevailing heavy weather. She has, However, done well in other respects, having commanded full freight and passenger lists from New South \\ ales, and fair freight and many p.issensjois from New Zealand to .">ydncy. The Kashy is, in fact, working a very good groove for herself in the new line of running opened by the enterprise of her owners, and will, we have no doubt, further improve upon it. We thank Captain Kennedy for the delivery of exchange hies, and the report. From it we see that after lying for one night at the Heads, the Easby cleared this part on May 20th ; arrived at Lyttellon at 3 a m. on the 27th; left again at 3 p.m., and reached Wellington at s.<iO a.m. next day. Strong southerly winds followed her along the coa*t. She made a twenty-nine hours' stay at Wellington, leaving for Sydney at 10.30 a.m. on the 29th, and after a pleasant passage, light variable easterly winds, and fine weather prevailing, arrived at Sydney at 3 a.m. on the 4th June. That night a fearful S.K. gale commenced, and attended by torrents of rain, blew furiously for two days, and put a stopper on work. The hatches eou d not bo opened. On the 6th she put her cargo out, and on the evening of the Btn left for Newcastle, arriving there next morning. Hero she had to wait her turn to coal, and in the cud only eooured 1200 tons,, the press of business being excessive. She returned to Sydney on the 18tb, then shipped 300 tons of coal and a l.rge quantity of genera) cargo and left at midnight on the ltith, had beautiful weather and smooth water across the midd c ground, mnde the land at Cape Karewo!l on the morning of the 24th June, and arrived at Wellington at 1 p.m. next day. There discharged 500 tons of coal and 200 tons of general cargo, and disembarked paasoHgers, and left on the 28th at 3.30 p.m. Lyttclton was reached at noon on the 20th, passengers and cargo were landed, and at noon on the 30th the k ashy made a final start for head-quarters, but, encountering a tremendously heavy southerly gale with a high sea, she did not reach the Heads unt I 0 p.m. on tie Ist inst., anchoi cd there for the night, and stemmed into port yesterday morning. She brings about a 1000 tons and a quantity of general cargo for this port; and 25 pas*on*revß. Her arrival at the Railway Pier was hindered for more than an hour by t' c shallow condition of the approaches to the pior. The Easby stuck on the point of the bank that projects across from Boiler Point, and hung there until the flowing tide floated her. A great deal more dredging is required to bring the channel into decent order. The steamer Comcrang returned from the Bluff ye3terday afternoon, and giving the Port tho go-by, passed on to Duncdin, The ship U-ucadia took her departure for China yoaterday forono.ni, and was towed to sea by the Geelong. As we stated in a former notice she will make fur Foo Chow or cihanuhae accurding as the wind serves. . . .

The schooners Jano Anderson and Cora sailed for Oamani yesterday forernoon with a fresh S. W. breeze. The ketch Eliza M'Phee, with a cargo of iron bridge material shipped at the New i'ier, sailed for the Molyucux yesterday. Tho ketch Good Templar came down from Dunedin ye-itorduy, and hauled iuto the new pier to load railway plant for the Molyneux. The briyantinc Seagull, bound to the Bluff, went down to the Heads yesterJay and anchored, to wait for a change of wind to go touth with. Captain Johnson, of the Marine Department, was a passenger by tho Ino, which arrived yesterday from Mcton and Tory Channel. Captain Johnson carefully examined the channel, with a view of determining the most suitable spot for placing leading lights for the guidance of mariners. lie placed two beacons in the channel as an experiment, before deciding upmi a permanent spot for a lighthouse, at. he is desirous of learning from captains of steamers their opinion as to the suitableness of the position t ho ha-i at present fixed upon.—New Zealand Times, June 20th.
