The Danish barque Herinine, Captain Berg, for whose safety fears were entertained, arrived in this port yesterday afternoon, bhe sailed from Otago on the 18th April, and experienced light and variable winds until Sunday, the Kai Koii Panisula hearing N. West 25 miles. The Southerly wind commenced on Sunday evening, the 20th inst at 9 o'clock, and increased to a hurricane about 11 p.m. Stowed away all sails except the main trysail, put the vessel's head to the eastward, and ran to the 'E.N.E , for about two hours, when she was hove-to. Gale still incrasing to a fearful hurricane, with thiak weather and rain. The gale was at its heighest on Monday night, when the trysail was split, and the barometer was'as a low as 29-2. On Tuesday morning, at daylight, sighted Cape Pallisier, bearing N N.W. distant 1 mile. Saturday close reefed topsails and staysails, and kept the vessel to the E.N.E The foresail and maintopsail split ; the vessel cleared the Cape, and drifted to the North, as far as lat49. On Wednesday, when the gale moderated, got new sails bent, end wore the ship round, the gale still abating, until Wednesday night, when it fell calm. Afterwards experienced light N.E. and S.W. winds, until Sunday morning, when a ljght S.E. wind sprung up, and brought the vessel into port, arriving here yesterday, at 3 p.m, Capt. Berg describes the gale as ths haaviest he had ever experienced, the sea running at the same time mocutains high. The vassel vessal behaved remarkably well, both when she was hove-to, and running, and never shipped a sea. The Esther left Wellington on the Ist inst., and has had a somewhat long passage, occasioned partly through her calling at Flat Point and Castle Point for the purpose of landing cargo. — H. Bay Heruld April 15. The Sea Serpent left Wellington on Saturday night last at 10 o'clock, and arrived in port last evening at 6, making the passage in rather less than 48 hours.
