Auckland, This day. Sky overcast; drifting and heavy banks clouds, broken here and there; threatens rain. Very unfavourable for observing the transit of Venus. The cutter Eose, from Whangapoua, has been seized .by the Customs authorities, having aboard three ten-gallon kegs of spirits not on cargo list. Arrived: Memento, from Newcastle. At time for commencement of transit, the sky was completely overcast —no glimpse of sun still continues, so observations must be a failure here and at Thames. It is reported that an Auckland whaler is ashore at the South. Sea Islands.
