The captain reports having left Wauganui on the 15th July, and that be had to pnt into Kapiti the next day, for shelter. Shortly after leaving Wanganui, one of the owners, Captain Taylor, was washed overboard. The weather Capt. Farnie states, has been severe in the Straita, and as he could not make for Wanganni to reprovision his vessel, he came on here. He left for Sydney yesterday evening. The s.s. Wellington, Captain A. Kennedy, arrived here on Saturday last. She left Port Chalmers oa the 18th July, at 4.30 p.m., anchored at the Heads until 7-25 a.m. on the 19th, when she sailed for Oamaru, arriving in the roadstead at 11.25 a.m., exchanged passengers, but owing to the heavy Eea on the beach could not load cargo ; left again at 2 p.m., and arrived at Lyttelton the following morning at 8.25 a.m. Sailed on the 21st at 4 p.m. for Wellington, and arrived on the 22nd at 10.30 a.m. Sailed for Picton on Sunday the 23rd, at 2.20 p.m. ; called ac Keeuan's whaling station to land oil casks, and reached Pic to a wharf by 8.30 p.m. Left again for Nelson on the 24th, at 12.30 a.m., arriving off the lighthonse at 10.30. Since leaving Wellington experienced fine light westerly breeze. She started for this port on the 27th, but, owing to a gale then blowing, had to put back again, where Captain Kennedy remained until 11.30 a.m. on the 28th . Made another start, and arrived off the roadstead at 1.30 a.m. on the 29th. Captain Kennedy says he has not experienced snch a severe winter since 1855. The Wellington had about ninety tons of cargo on board for this place, and, notwithstanding the inclemency of the weather on Saturday, the boatmen landed a large portion of it. Captain Kennedy sailed for the Manukau at about 4 p.m., and may be expected back again to-day or to-morrow. We have to thank the purser for forwarding ashore our files of southern papers. The Huon Belle went ashore on the South Spit, Patea, during the afternoon of the 25th July. She was got off on the following day, with the assistance of the pilot and the captain of the Alert. Stranding of the Cutter Patea.— The cutter Patea, trying to face the strongand rapid current in the Wanganni River, aud not having sufficient wind at the time, ran ashore on the South Spit at 4 p.m. on the 27th July. There was a heavy sea on at the time, and the Patea having a light draught of water, she was lifted so far on the beach as to be beyond the action of the heavy breakers at high water, while at low tide she is high and dry, our reporter having ridden ronnd her this morning. The vessel has sustained no damage whatever, and the goods have all been landed in comparatively good order. The master, Mr. Tilley, and mate, were abletolandat7 p.m., three hours after the Patea was beached, and the whole of the goods were landed last night. The little craft is now lying alongside a lagoon with abont four feet of water, and a large quantity of cable rope has been taken down in order to anchor the vessel, so that at high tide she may float into this lagoon, and when the weather moderates, be drawn into the dnep water, which is likely to be accomplished without much difficulty. — Wanganui Herald.

An " Odd Fellows" Journal. — It is proposed in London to bring out a newspaper in the interests of the friendly societies, more especially the Odd Fellows, and the Record thinks there must be a sufficiency ofspeci.il topic in connection with the various Orders to render such a publication valuable to those institutions, and generally popular." The French War Indemnity. — It is stated that Baron Rothschild has given an opinion that France will be able to pay np the whole five milliards of francs in the course of the year. M. Cremienx has addressed a letter to M. Grevey, the President of the National Assembly, in which the ex-Minister nroposes that France should promptly subscribe the war indemnity of five milliards, in order to rid herself of the Prussians. He says — "Let each of us consider the state of our fortune, and let ns make an advance to our country, which will be repaid over a loug course of years." M. Cremienx himself offere 100,000 franca for this purpose.
