THE TRIUMPH DISASTER.

Vessel Still Ashore.

Thkp.e is very little fresh to relate about the Triumph. She still remains on the rocks, but her position is considered much more favourable than formerly. The effort to kedge her oil" which was made last night, bad no great eil'eet in moving her, for when the Glenolg passed her this morning she was bard and fast on the rocks, tho only perceptible change being that, instead of listing to port as before, she now lien with a great list to starboard. This change is considered favourable to another attempt to get the vessel oil', which was to bo made this afternoon. Those engaged in preparation for this effort wore very sanguine of success when last heard from, and it is firmly believed that the Triumph will shortly bo seen in Auck land Harbour. The prospect of her being got oil' has raised tho question whether she can bo docked here. Our dock is about twenty feet shorter than the steamer, and thus a great diffi culty presents itself. There is sufficient depth to accommodate the vessel, but the length being1 wanting, some arrangement will have to bo made to supply the de ficiency. One idea is to build a coffer-dam outside of the dock and thus enclose the vessel, and this will, most likely, bo the plan adopted should it bo found necessary,
