wonderful with what facility our people compre-

descried at no great distance ; by her rig we were 
at no great loss to understand whom she had on 
board, for we had learned that the Bishop of New 
Zealand had touched here a short time previous 
to our arrival, and that his Lordship intended to 
go to Sydney, and then return hither. As soon 
as she approached near enough, our whale-boat 
went on board, and soon returned bringing the 
Bishop's Chaplain, the Rev. Mr. Patteson. The 
Bishop proposes landing to-morrow, and bringing
