A FINE NEW STEAMER. (Per Press Association.) Wellington, November 12. The new steamer Remuera arrived from London yesterday. She is the latest addition to the New Zealand Shipping Company’s fleet. The Rcmuera is a splendid sea boat. From the Cape heavy northerly and westerly weather with high seas was experienced, but the Bernuera made light of them. An old traveller (a New Zealander) described the new steamer as a credit to New Zealand and to her owners. A large number of thirdclass passengers arrived in the Reamera, the majority being future settlers. There was a largo number of girls for domestic service, but they apparently had places awaiting them in most instances. Among the men were several fathers of families who have come out to make a fresh start in New Zealand. The Remucra also brought out some wives who were rejoining their husbands, bringing their children with. them.
