EXPOETS.

Per Phoebe, for Dunedin and Bluff— 3 pkgs, Bowen ; 1 case drapery, W. Graham ; 1 case, J. White.

The barque Alma sailed from Melbourne on the 11th ult., and cleared tho Straits on the 13th by Swan Island, from which sho took her departure with westerly winds. Strong breezes from N.W. and West drove hor across tho middle ground, and up to the New Zealand coast by the 19th, an excellent landfall being made about Abut Head. The heavy W.S.W. ga'etbcn blowing obligod her to head offshore again under close-reefed topsails and lower staysails, and until the 23rd she kept an offing and then ran in and anchored. Once fast to the ground she held her own in splendid style during the furious gales that terminated the stormy month of August, her behaviour eliciting many a comment of admiration from seamen who anxiously watched the tempest-tossed fleet from the beach. The Alma rode it out to a single anckor and eighty fathoms of chain, and was one of tho very few vessels which maintained their position/the remaindor being compelled to slip and stand off shore, She remained outside until yesterday morning, and was then towod in behind the Challenge, crossing tho bar without once touching ground, although her draught of water was Bft. Gin. She brings a full general cargo. Wo observe that Captain Tobin is now in command of tho Alma, her late master, Captain Moore, who so long and ably sailed hor, having been appointed to the command of the steamer Titan, one of the Hobson's Bay tug fleet. The clipper schooner Canterbury left Lyfctelton on the 30lh ult., and although a terrific gale was then blowing on this coast, sho found tho weather merely squally and unsettled during her run to Capo Farewell, which she rounded on the 2nd inst, her passage henco to tho roadstead being marked, first, by a twentyfour hours blow from south, followed by light winds and cahns. Sho came to off tho bar on the 6th insL, having made a first-rate passage, considering tho weather she experienced. The Canterbury was towed in by the Chullengo, and is freighted with produce and general cargo.

Tho briganlino Elizabeth Curie cleared Otago heads on the 18th ult. Unsettled, disagreeable weuthor attended her round the coast to Rocks point which she breasted on tho 26th, there being met by a S.W. gale which la?ted two days, and kept her standing on and off tho land under close-reefed canvas. A elant from N.W. fetched hor into the Groy roads on the 29th where sho fell in with the heavy west gale that commenced on th'it date and continued during the thrco following days. The Curio hove-to for several hours, but at last up helm and ran for tho shelter of the Steeples, whero she anchored and kept close until the 2nd inst., then put to sea and reached the Hokitika roads on tho sth. Came to amongst the fleet, and yesterday gained the port astern of tho Lioness. Her cargo consists of produce and a few tons of general merchandise. Her barometer kept a very high level during tho passage round — only once falling to 20 70, and on two occasions reached 3040 and 3060. A vastly improved channel and an excellent tide created yesterday morning the much desired opportunity to rid the roadstead of

some of the heavier bottoms which have so long lumbered it, and afforded the two tugs a " rare filant" to show their mottle, and better still to earn a store of gold for their owners. They were not backward on the occasion, and in proof of which the tides work of yesterday will long be remembered as the heaviest thai was ever transacted since tho declaration of the port, from twelve hundred to fifteen hundred tons of shipping having arrived. We never remember the harbor steamers appearing to greater advantage, the Challenge especially being handled witii the skill and judgment which long since stamped Captain Wilson as one of the smartest of tug masters. She towed in no fewer seven vessels all of fair burden, viz., the Isabella, Hannah Newton, Sarah and Mury, Alma, Canterbury, J. B. Russell, and the coasting schooner William and Julia. Five craft were conveyed inside by the Lioness, their names being the Anne Moore, Harriet Nathan, Slorm Bird, Elizabeth Curie and Cymraes. Tho channel was very good as it contained nine feet of water and ran straight to sea, whilst of surf there was little or none, Only eight vessels remained in tho roadstead last night, and as thero is every probability of a higher tide this morning, we expect they will be transferred to the wharf by noon. The schooner William and Julia was towed into the river yesterday by the Challenge. She is fvom G-reyrnoufch "svifch a cargo of 47 tons of coal.

Tho ketch Cymraes which was engaged to lighten tho Stormbird of a portion of her cargo, was yesterday towed in, fully laden, by the Lioness. She took up the lowest berth at the quay, and at once commenced to discharge, and by sunset had landed a great deal of cargo. The cargoes brought up by the steamers Gothenburg, Otago and Egmont were brought to tho wharf yesterday by the lighter Isabella which was towed in by the Challenge. The Isabella also relieved the brigantine Union of a portion of her lading. In our issue of yesterday wo omitted to report the departure of the schooner Alice for Fox's River. She was towed out by the Persevere late on Thursday evening's tide. Having dropped her charge, the Persevere proceeded to Greyraouth. It appears from advice 3 lately received by Captain Turnbull that the outlet of the Okarita lagoon was almost quite silted up for nearly a fortnight, the outflow being diverted tlnough many channels, each shallow and uonavigable. To open the port again by confining the stream within reasonable bounds, sixteen of the Okarita residents sot to work with pick and shovel, and dug a new channel, tho experimpnt being entirely successful, as tho rush of water, though it scoured the channel to a depth of fifteen feet, and threw up protective spits on either side. That regular Westland trader, the Sarah and Mary has once more reached tho wharf with a heavy and valuable cargo of miscellaneous goods, shipped at Melbourne. She sailed from Hobson's Bay on the 25th ult. with N.W. winds and fine weather, cleared Bass' Straits next day ; Sister's Island being the last land sighted. Favored by continuous westerly winds she made a splendid passage — the run from Port Philip heads to the New Zealand coast being completed in six days and a half, as the roadstead was gained on the morning of tho Ist inst., but the unsettled appearance of the weather induced Captain Duncan to keep an offing until sundown, when he brought his vessel to an anchor abreast the bar, where she remained until yesterday morning, and wa3 then towed in by the tug Challenge. Six passengers arrived by the Sarah and Mary. During the passage her barometer ranged between 29*40 and 2980.

The smart brigantine Hannah Newton, now on her second voyage since leaving the stocks, arrived in the river yesterday, having made a very fan. 1 and fortunate trip from Newcastle, the run across being completed in nine days, whilst her detention in the roads did not extend beyond six days. We hope and moreover believe that when she again visits us, less time will elapse between her arrival outside and inside the bar. The Hannah Newton left' Newcastle; {N.S.W.), on the 27th uhv Experienced strong S, and S.W. -breezes during the run across, and anchored-in the roadI stead on the 6th inst. She comes up laden with 100 tons of coals, and several tons of general cargo. The brigantine Anne Moore left Melbourne on the 17th ult., passed the Heads the same day with light N.W. winds and clear weather, nnd cleared the Straits on the 19th, taking a departure from Deal Island. Moderate winds from S.W. to W. prevailed until the 23rd, being succeeded by lighb variable airs, which delayed her arrival in the roadstead until the 26th. Detained by an impassable bar, she lay at anchor during the next five days, and was then driven to sea by the gale of the 31st. Kept under canvas until the 3rd inst., then returned to the roadstead, and yesterday morning towed to the wharf astern of the tug Lioness. The Anne Moore brings a full cargo of general merchandise. Her barometer was almost stationary afc 2990 during the passage. The arrival of Hie three-masted schooner Stormbird at the wharf yesterday morning must have been a most gratifying event to her owners and crew, as the unfortunate vessel has been two months to the day out from Dunedin, the greatest part of the time baring been spent about the West Coast, off which she knocked about for six weeks, sometimes at anchor in the roadstead, but ofreuer under storm canvass, battling with heavy gales in the ofllng. The Stormbird sailed from Dunedin on July 13th with light southerly winds, and ran the coast down to Cook's straits with light variable winds, which kept her east of Tonga Island unbil the 21st. A heavy gale from the N.W. drovo her under Tonga for* shelter, where she remained until the weather abated, on the 25th and then proceeded on her voyage. Light north winds attended her to Cape Farewell, which was rounded on the 27th, when another heavy galo from N.W. sprung up, and drove her to within twenty miles of the bar by the 30th. A shift of wind to W.S W. took place that day, creating a tremendous cross sea, and well knowing that the port would be closed in such weather, Captain Simpson kept his vessel in the offing waiting for a change. It came next day in- a violent gale from S.E. veering to east that drove the schooner away north, as on the Ist ult. she picked herself up close under Pakihi. On the following day she made for the Steeples, and came to an anchor and laj quiot until the 4th, when she made another attempt to reach Hokitika, but was met by a heavy gale from west, and to clear the land was compelled to stand off on tho port tack, and so fetched away to the northward of Capo Farewell. Having opened Cook's Straits, and as the gale discovered no signs of abating she was kept away for Guards Bay, and there anchored for shelter on the Bth ult. Put to sea again on tho 12th with easterly winds, and at last gained the anchorage off Hokitika on the 14th. From that date until yesterday blio hung about the coast waiting for a chanco to get inside, and was finally towed over the bar by tho Lionesa. Tho Stormbird brings a general cargo, amongst which are four steam engines with pumps and boilers complete. The barque Harriet Nathan, one of Messrs H. and T. Peak's lino of traders, sailed from Hobart Town on the Bth ult, in the teeth of a strong easterly breeze, which kept her within sight of land until tho 11th, when it veered to south, and the same evening she took her last departure from Cape Pillar. Sho ran across tho Middle Ground before steady S.W. and W. breezes, and reached to within sight of Bold Head on tho 17th, when tho breeze hauling to N.W. and increasing to a sharp gale, she roducod canvas and stood off the land. Kept out until the 20th, and then ran in and took a peep at the bar, but as tho weather continued exceedingly tempestuous sho put to sea ugain, and during tho ensuing fortnight remained under canvas and encountered the burst after burst of westerly weather which

mai'ked that period as one of the mo3t stormy of the season. On the 3rd hist, she returned to the roadstead, and after waiting ten days for the bar to clear, was towod safely to the wharf by the Lioness yesterday morning. The Harriett Nathan is laden with Tasmanian produco, and brought up seven horses, which were landed yesterday in fair condition considering the long time they were cooped up on board ship. The schooner J. B. Russell sailed from Chrisluhurch on the 29th ulfc., with light N.W. winds and unsettled weather. Next day the breeze increased to a hard gale, but being sheltered by the land the sea kept down, and she was thus enabled to lay her course under press of sail, and reached Cape Camp bell on the 31st. There she met the full fury of the gale, as it howled through Cook's Straits, raising a. mountainous sea, and there being every appearance of a continuation of heavy weather, she was run into Port Underwood for shelter. Next morning the gale abated, giving place to a light east wind, and she accordingly proceeded on her way ; ran through the Straits by the sth, having been hindered by calms and variables, and fetched-to within sight of Hokitika by the 9fch. Next day she anchored, and on the 13th was towed inside by the Challenge. The J. B. Russul comes round laden with a mixed car^o of produce, &c, besides a quantity of live stock, including some score pigs, which arrived in excellent condition, and were disposed of at auction yesterday, realising high prices.
