ARRIVAL OF THE ROBERT HENDERSON.

The poor old Robert Henderson came toiling up harbour this morning.and gladlj dropped her anchor off Stokes Point. Ihe passage has been the usual one for the bulk of "vessels sent out by the emi nent firm of Shaw, Saville & Co., namely. 123 dayi; and her few passengers speak in terms of thankfulness that they have been permitted to' arrive in port so soon. The Kobert Henderson is a small vessel of. 552 tons only, and is now nearly six teen years .old1. She is one of the old school j*i Aberdeen clippers, and belongs to Messrs Shaw, Saville & Co. She wa> classed.* il at Lloyd's for nine years, and is consequently long off her first letter. She was built in days gone by for the New Zealand trade, w. I placed upon the berth for Diinedin, and continued to run for some years. She had, however, be come too old, for the Southern people to have any confidence! in her, and conse quently was smartened up by her enter prising owners' and despatched to Auck land. She brings twelve adult steerage passengers ,and, two children, some of whom have been considerately accommo dated on deck. Saloon passengers she had none! probably from an ominous reason. Np one who could afford to wait ■would, in their senses, attempt to brave the inconveniences to be met with in such a class of vessel. These remarks, however, do not apply to her able commander, A. Culbert, Esq., who is accompanied by his wife, and both of whom the passengers speak in glowing terms, and praise them for his uniform kindness and attention to them during the protracted passage of the unfortunate ship. The ship does not ap pear to have encountered any extraordi nary severe weather, and beyond carrying away her cros.B r ja,ck yard during a squall off the coast of Brazil, in addition to ipringing her mizen and fore-topgallant yards, there is nothing serious to report Passengers arrive all well, and were passed by the Health Officer on arrival: Captain Culbert reports leaving London Docks on June 22, Grraresend June 23, and the veasel took her final departure from the Wolfs Bock, Land's End on June 27; experienced very indifferent •winds to the Equator, which was crossed on July 30, .Inlongitude 30.15 west: h«d bad south-east trades, and wts knocking about off the Coast of Brazil for several days, during which time the cros»-jack yard was carried away in a squall from the north-west, and the mizen and fore topgallant yards sprung—this was in lati tude 27.39 south,. and . longitude 28.13 west; passed the meridian of the Cape of Good Hope on September 1. The prevail ing winds from the Cape were S. and S.E. ran down iier eastings in 45 and 47 degrees souths which latitude ice was seen ; sighted the North Cape on Monday last, and experienced S.S-W winds down coast; arrivjgajnharbour, as above, after a passage of 123 days from the Docks.

The Otago- Times reports the death of Mr. George Green, ff#known there and bj repute at least, all over the colony, through his enormous land claims. Mr. Green came from Sydney to New Zealand in 1838. He remained in the colony tor about a year, and wifr chiefly at the Bran during that time, It was on that occasion that he made his large purchases from the Maories. These/purchases . as as follows:—Centre Island (toff the South land coast), 2000 acres, for £20 10s.; 20,000 acres,. Stiiwars Island, £30 10s.; 20,000 acres, Kowokapito Bay, £20 10s.; 109 ac _rz 3J a ff Harbour, £16 ; 1,000,024 acres, • Tfrtalcen Bay, "Weat Coast, £200, He hau aiso made purchases of land at Catlin Eiver, and bought the Quarantine liland, in OtagdJHafcbdur. jAfttr leaving* New Zealand, he went to Sydney. He commenced to prosecute) his clahns to these lands in 184&; being one of the .first to submit his titles to the Government, but he could not get * Grown, grant. He came back to New Zealand in 1858 br, 1859 to pros^u^e.his^clpms, which he had all along beeaw sieging./ He returned t6 Sydney, and again,came to■•-New Zealand in 1860, and hwVr^lnained^e ever since. No Crown g*«St" or. «ompensation of any sort was •v i ej J giyen fji^im. Recount of these purchases till about twp yeart ago, when he received~sooo acreßrin-twablouks of 2500 acres each.:« ■ .;t -,' .j; An Aroericaiieclitor'tayß he has heard of a secret down iri'^rtland^hich waf so big that it required all the women in the town to keep it, and then they could' ndt.flb so without tht help of their husbands.

STRIKE ON THE RAILWAY WORKS.

! This morning the majority of the men employed on the railway works at Fort i'Britomart knocked ofi° working, and stated that they would continue no longer on ■ the railway line unless the hours of labour were reduced,. and. their pay 'increased; they wanted 7s per diem wages, and S hours a-day labour. At ten o'clock this morning about 150 of Mr Brogden's navvies,. includ ing those who had;, struck on the New 3 market portion of the line on Tuesday last, and those under Mr Jones, "at Fort Britomart, assembled on Barrack. Hill to decide what should be their next step. Several speakers ad dressed those present, and strongly condemned the manner in which Mr Brogdeu had treated his labourers. They said that the emigrants brought out foi* the railway works had been entirely misled by Mr Brogden. They had been given to understand that their, wages would commenqe immediately upon their going on board' ship; that upon landing there would be an agent here to provide accommodation for them, and that their passage would be paid out. ,But onembarkJ ing for New Zealand they were each pre sented with a printed form containing the conditions under which they were to work, and were quite the reverse of the promises' held out previously. They were then told that only part of their pasaage money would be paid. Those who .spoke urged the workmen to hold out and to continue the strike until their terms were accepted by the countraotors. It was agreed that they should only ask for.the, reduction in the hours of labour at present •. and if their request was granted,' they were sure it would have to be before long. Then after a week or so—just to give them breath ing time—they would strike again for eight hours a-day labour and seven-shillings per day pay. All" present' were in favor of this course being pursued. The Southern Cross was strongly condemned for,, publishing the article in reference to the strike; most of the statements made by that journal were denounced as false. It was then proposed and seconded|tliat all present should "formfours " and turn off all those still working on the line. Tojthis effect they ultimately proceeded in a straggling line to the Newmarket quarry, but on the way about a third of the number dropped off. On their arrival at the quarry they requested the workmen to "knock off." This demand, however, [they at first refused to comply with, but seeing the numbers pouring into the quarry they dropped their tools, but stated at the same time that they were de termined to re-commence work as soon as the crowd went away. Some of the mob threatened to pull down the crane, but only got as far as unshipping the handle, not having (fortunately por themselves) the courage to do further damage. They were then about to go further down the line to stop the men on other parts of the work, when a shower of rain and "two" members of the police force (Detective Jeffrey aiul Con stable Jackson) came down together upon them and completely damped their ardour. The quarrymen were then ordered to proceed with their work, and the mob dispersed, having done themselves more injury than good by their ha^ty proceedings. It had been pre viously decided that all on the strike should meet at eight o'clock to-morrow morning,at the Newmarket, quarry, and proceed to Otahuhu, stopping on their way: all the men j on the railway line that did not choose- to ! join in the strike ; but there is little doubt that instead of taking this step, which would only lead to more harm than good, they— or at least as many as will be taken on again—-will go back to work before the week is out.

The patron of ».cheap eating-house, who complained that they now only gave one potato with his meat, whereas they formely gave him two, Was mollified by the waiter's explanation that the last lot of potatoes they purchased was so bad that no gentleman could fat more than on* of them.
