SHIP REPAIRING IN NEW ZEALAND. —The New
Zeeland Steam Novioatieu Comp•uy's slip, io Evans Bay,
is completed, and will, wh.vi not in use for their own
steamers, off. r a great couvenisoce to vessel' of 100 or NO
tons which need repairs. A compel...tit engineer is engaged
in fixing a site, stud pteparing speeifimitimm. for a pateot slip
to he erected in the harbour, which I believe will be suffi-
ciently large to take up a veiteel of 1,20 U tone. Wellington
will be the first port io New Zealand possessing such accom-
modatioo.— Wellington Correspoodeut of the New Zealand
