♦ The s s Egmo'nt arrived from "Wellington last evening at 5 o'clock. The s s St Kilda' arrived iu;the river from ■ ..- .Onehunga at -1 o'clock this (Friday) morn- , . ing,, but grounded at the Bluff. She may probably, get off this evening. A. considerable amount. of \ excitement was caused yesterday, (Thursday) when it was known'that the Manawatu and Storm Bird were about -to leave for Wellington nearly together,'and a great many bets were made on the result. "We learn from' a private telegram that'tlie Storm Bird arrived in Wellington at 10 minutes to 6 o'clock .this (Friday) morning, halt an'hour before the Mana- , watu. This time would give less than eleven hours for the passage, • and there must have been a remarkably smooth sea.
