| ARRIVAL OF THE PLEIONE, FROM PLYMOUTH. | ||||||||||
| The ship Pleione (Messrs. Shaw, Savill, and Co.'s), 1097 tons, Captain Renaut, came to anchor off the Queen's Wharf about half-past one | ||||||||||
| o'clock yesterday afternoon. She brings to this colony 196 steerage passengers - nominated immigrants - of whom 136 are single women. Of | ||||||||||
| the total number of passengers, 90 are for Wellington, 11 for Nelson, 11 for Auckland, 23 for Marlborough, 27 for New Plymouth, 20 for | ||||||||||
| Hawke's Bay, and 13 for Canterbury. The Pleione left Plymouth at 10 am. on 2nd August, and the next day cleared the Channel. On 6th | ||||||||||
| September, in lat. 25deg N., she caught the N.E. trade; they were light, and only lasted four days. On 25th September, crossed the Equator, in | ||||||||||
| long 21deg W. Letters were sent home on this date by the M. E Cox, an English ship. On 11th October, passed Tristan D'Acunha, and on the | ||||||||||
| 23rd of the same month passed the meridian, Cape of Good Hope, in lat 41deg 30min south. Her easting was run down on the parallel of 47 | ||||||||||
| degs. On 24th August spoke the ship Oamaru, and on the 25th the Flintshire; off the Cape, one Norwegian and two Dutch barques, bound for | ||||||||||
| Adelaide; on the 26th November passed a schooner, running to the N.W., and a barque (painted white with black bulwarks) going as ourselves. | ||||||||||
| The only land seen was the Martin Vas Rocks, on the 3rd October. Unusually fine weather was experienced throughout the voyage. The ship | ||||||||||
| reached here in splendid condition — the passengers' quarters having evidently been kept scrupulously clean and neat. Dr. Husband is the ship's | ||||||||||
| surgeon. He came out in the Jessie Headman in 1873, and in the Arethusa last year, and will return, it is stated, in the s.s. Durham, now lying | ||||||||||
| at Lyttelton. | ||||||||||
