The schooners Kaeo and A wanin’ were sighted when passing Port Awanui on Saturday. When the "Waikonini was coming up the river in the afternoon, owing to a lighter being stuck in the channel, the scow, which was sailing up, was compelled to keep towards the groyne and consequently she also stuck, and was delayed for some time before reaching the wharf. The Maoriland Steamship Co.’s Lauderdale was completing her discharge yesterday. She sails to-night for Napier, having been unable to .leave port earlier owing to the factthat there is no berth available there or no trucks for the coal. f
