WELLIXCJTOX. May 13. It is understood that there is no hope of floating tile Taviuui except by cutting through the training wall and re -launching her into the channel. This would be very expensive and it is doubtful if the vriisel is worth it. The Wellmgton Harbour Board ha*- fulsome time been increasing the chatges on shipping notwithstanding «+-verat warnings. A notable instance of this pidiey was: -a resolution to construct a .hick in defiance of the experience of other ports. The contention of itis sujip. rtets was that shipping wais not paying enough and cffttlct well f>ear the cost.. It iii now stated that two .shipping compantt-v. are thinking of making Lvttelton the principal port of arrival and departure, in eonsc'i'tut-EH-,-of the increased charges. Th.- "Tuiw'" commenting on this, advi-s.'s the Hatb„vtr Board to be very careful what they av*doing in the way of inereariing the chargtcito- ahtpping SALE OF A COLLIER. WELIJXC.TOX.
