A SHIP DISABLED.
- ■■■•-■ ■ • ■■■■■ : . - Jan: 18; The barque ExSminer, Captain Pallant, bound from Clarence river to Dunedin, with ironbark timber, arrived here last night disabled, having had her rudder knocked off through touching rooks at 11.80 on Tuesday night, at Moggy hland, southwest of Stewart island. Foggy weather prevailed at the time, and had the fog not lifted, disclosing the vessel's position, a total loss would have resulted. Fortunately, a breeze off shore enabled the vessel to obtain an offing. Temporary steering gear was rigged, enabling her to make the straits yesterday afternoon, when the tug picked her up and brought her into port. __
