CAPSIZING OF THE BARGE NORAH.

Mr Gkokoe lUrr, master ot the barge Norah, sends us the following account of tho casualty;—On tho 2Gth of September last I loft Kennedy Bay with a moderato N.W. wind, kopt so till 2 o'clock of tho 27th, I was on deck up till midnight of the 26th, when the vesspl was all right. At 1 a.m. on th'o 27th still all right; were down tho hold to .see what water was in the vessel, there being about threo inches from midships forward. I tx>kl my mato to call mo at two o'clock to put tho vessel round on tho other tack. We should then have woathered Port Charles. About a quarter to 2 the Vessel took a heavy list to starboard. I took no notico of that, thinking it was the sea. heaving her over. Five minutes later she took anothor heavy list, worse than tho lirst. i was on deok, and asked what was making her list with S3 littlo wind. I could no" make it out. The logs had never shifted. I ran down tho hold, and was surprised to sco fully a foot of water in her. I ran on dock and put tho vessel round, lowered the staysails, top sail and forosail, and tho peak of tho mainsail—as much as I dared take oil' of hor, as I wnnted to run for Kcw Chum Beach, Whangapoim. Sl )e ran like that in a perilous position for about half.an-hour, tho water commencing to got to tho cabin door. 1 tried to stop the water with blankets, but without avail. Tho water worked its way in tons down tho cabin, tho weather side- of tho bottom being right out of water. I was on the load at the time, watching the steering of the vessel, tho cook being at the wheel. Still she was listing. I told him to come away from ths wheel and look out for himself. Tho mato was at the boat getting her ready for launching. At list 1 sang out "Launch tho boat." but it was too lato, tho vessol going right over till sho got bottom up. Tho cook was Mio tho only man who managed to get on har bottom, myself and the mate being under her for about n minute. 1 succeeded in gotting to tho main rigging and scrambled up, tho cook hauling mo. \Y hen I recovered mysolf I nsked, " Whero is Bill?" Heeaid, " Underthe boat." Atiast ho managed to get on board through tho two of us helping. This must have been about thrco o'clock. The sea was breuk ing clpan over us. Thero wo remained till ten o'clock, when wo saw a sail coming down on us; it was tho Progress scow. Tho master took us off safely, and guvo us the vory best of treatment. Great praise rs dire to fho crew for tho way in which they acted. Went in tho Progress to Whangapoun, and romained till Sunday morning; then we went on the hill and sighted the vessol. I asked tho captain of tho Nellie cutter to como and take hor in for £100, providing ho could lift her all right, but ho wanted tho salvage, and I would not allow it, I borrowed The whale boat and went out to the wreck till tho Waitomata bargo camo out. I told him to como if tho Nollio would not como to terms. Ho did so, and has got her about ono milo off Jforcury Island, whero wo auo waiting for tho steamer Rowena to take us in. Tho vessel is all right, with the exception of a plug holo. Tho causo of the disaster arose from the plug, which had como out of a holo about an inch and a-half in diameter. Wo hope to get the vowel righted this week if all goes well.
