The l'arawera sai'.ed yesterday afternoon' for Lyttcltoifand northern ports. The* Harbour Board's Plucky was busily engaged yesterday as a tender to the flagship JEuryahis. ! l'he Union Company's fine steamer Manuka, is due hero on- Sunday morning about; 8 from Sydney and East Coast ports. The Ship Andora lias left Melbourne for Hull with' the following valuable cargo i— 3852 ba'cs wool, 12,953 bags wheat, 205J tons old railway iron and i 34£ tons scrap steel.

The tonnage of vessels of all classes for 1904 onteringthc port of Napier was '714,673, which is a record, the next best being 709,578 tons in the year 1903.

The barque Itata, with cargo from Liverpool, via Wellington, reached the Heads yesterday, and was towed up to Dunedin. She brings soino 680 tons of genornl cargo, which is con-igncd to Neill and Co., of tliis ci

The Wimmera, from Sydney, due here this morning, sails for Melbourne, via Bluff and Hoba'rt, 10-inorrow afternoon. Passengers will rr-qtiiro to lake tlio 2.30 train to Port- Chalmers at latest.

The Now .Zealand Shipping Company's cargo steamer Kaipara, from Lyttelton, arrived at Port Chalmers yesterday afternoon, and was berthed at the north fide of the Ceorge street pier to take in cargo, a large quantity of which was waiting her arrival. The s.s. Kamona, from the west Const ports, via Oamarti, arrived at Part Chalmers yesterday, and went _ alongside the Boweii pier to land a quantity of wool for transhipment to the s.s. Kaipara and the Straw- Savill, anil Albion Company's Maori.* She brought 1000 bales for the Kaipara and 500 for the Maori. The.s,!. Manuka, of 4400 tons gross register, is the largest vessel .so far berthed at the Napier breakwater harbour, and she was berthed on various occasions last, year without any trouble. The chairman of the Napier Harbour Board, in his annual statement. savs tlio fact of these large vessels visiting the port—and the tendency a.l the time is to increase the size—made it apparent that increased wharfage accommodation must be provided at the breakwater, and, with that object in view, provision has been made in the estimates for 1905. Arrangements are now in progress [or refloating the Irarquentine Addenda (which went ashore in I'allisor Bay on October 14) by Mr .1. D. M'Dougall, of Pirinoa, who purchased the vessel some few months ago. The stranded vessel is now lying in an upright position (until lately she was leaning towards the Spit) parallel with the Spit, but some 12 vards further from the water's edge than when first deposited upon the i»hore. There is a well-defined dip from the, vessel to the sea. and there seems tittle doubt, as to the ultimate success of the undertaking now in progress. To the inexperienced eye the Addenda does not appear to lie greatly damaged. It is expected arrangements for refloating the vessel will be completed in the course of the next few weeks.
