A Lengthy Pa*-:ago. At 2 p.m., the Rangitikei, which hwl lem towed up by the steam r Wellington, dropfel anchor oft" the end of Queen - street wharf, thus concluding a lengthy voyage of 123 days from London. The Rangitikei left London on December l'ith, passed Plymouth three days later, and experienced light and contrary wind-* almost through out the whole voyage. Tho trade winds wevo very bad, and it Mas not until sight of land that anything like a fair breeze was experienced. Tho Equator was crossed on January -6'h, and Tas mania was raised about six weeks ago. The North Cape of New Zealand woa sighted 12 days ago, and since then tho vessel naa been knocking about the const. The passengers, who are in good health, apeak of tho voyage as a vory monotonous one, and they are by no meaus delighted with their treatment upon arrival. Instead of tho Health Officer Inspecting the vessel directly she came up harbour, ho was attend ing on inquest at Newmarket, and wnsthere fore not expected to como'oif until 7 or 8 o'clock. This comes of too much work being roquired of Dr. Philson, a very able gentleman, but unfortunately un able to be übiquitous. The following deaths occurred during tho voyago:— Friday, 7th March, A. M. Macantea, weak actlm of the heart; Sunday, 9th March, Margaret Marker, aged one year ; Sunday, 23rd March, infant named Slater, aged about one year ; Saturday, 12th April, Hannan Murray, aged three years. Two births havo aleo to bo recorded, the happy mother* being MesdameH J. K. Harker, and Slater. Tho following ia a list of tho Rangitikei's officers :—Chief Officer, Mr Budd ; Second Officer, Mr Nowman ; Third Officer, Mr Malcolm. Dr. Benthain is the medical superintendent, and Mrs Reid oceupiestheposition of matron. Theßangi tikei will probably bo berthed at the wharf to-morrow morning.
