BY the arrival Of the United State steam.
(rigate SusQuehanna, Capt. c. Buchanan,
at San Francisco, we have Honolulu dates
to the 2sth of October, nine days later
than previous adyices. The news is Of the
highest importance.
Tile treaty Of annexation has been sign.
cd by ling Kamclamcha and the princi.
pal nobility, but his Majesty has made a
formal promise to Prince Alexander that
he would wait his return from neighbor.
ing Island before the treaty should be def.
lnateIy settled. The officers Of the Sus.
quehanna are Of the opinion that annexa.
ton is rather popular than otherwise
among the natives. 1t appears, however,
that Liholiho, who was at the head Of the
opposition 10 this measure, gayc lis con.
sent a few days before the sailing of the
Susquehanna. The only difficulty that
now remains TO the complete settlement
Of this subject, is, whether the Islands
shall be admitted into the Union as u State
or Territory.
The King and his suite paved visit to
the steam lrigatc Susquchanna and sIoop
Of war St. Mary's, on the 2Glh uIt., aud
was received with much ceremony. His
Majesty expressed himselrhighly delighted.
The officers Of the U. S. steamers Sus.
quehanna and Mississippi, paid visit Of
ceremony to His Majesty on the 26rh ut.
After the officers had been presented, the
Hon. D. l.. Gregg introduced the follow
ing gentleman, as well as many others,
whose names are not recorded in the re.
ception book, viz: His EXccIIency, Saml.
Purdy, Lieut.. Governor Of California -
Charles Doane, Mr.. Hammond, Jas. Wis.
ter, L. Swope, and w. f. Cutrel.
The San HaaciSc0 HyuH Of the lGih
ult. says that the Mississippi steam rrigato
is expected TO arrive here in a few days
with the treaty. We have conversed with
a gentleman who saw the approved Treaty
1t was very lively at HonoluIa, four U,
S. vessels Of war giving the place the ap
pearence and character Of an American
Port: which is scarcely anticipating the
event.
The feeling at Honolulu was very much
American, the utmost courtesy prevailing

west, communicating to buildings on the
opposite side OF the street. Some twenty.
five or thirty building in all, were more or
less injured by the flames, many Of which
were burnt to the ground. How the fire
originated is not known but from the fact
that tie fire had been extinguishcd in the
factory the evening before, and that the
flames were seen bursting from the build.
ing at several different places at the same
time, it is supposed to have been the work
of an incendiary. The loss in all, is cs.

LATER FROM TEXAS.

By the arrival of the steamer Charles
Morgan at New Orleans, we have later
odvces from Texas.
The San Antonio Ledger Of the 10Th has
the following account Of another Indian
loray;
son Wednesday ofIast week ten hors.
es were stolen from Montol's mill, Ban.
dara city, by Indians. Nine citizens star.
ted in pursuit Of them, and aicr a chase
OF thirty miles overlook them. They
were TonkawnyS, and five in number
They made some resistance, and then dis.
appeared among the mountains. In the
sklrmlsh It is thought one Indian was Kill.
led, and others perhaps wounded. All the
horses were recovered except one, which
was stripped by an Indian, and then Kill.
Ied."
The same paper has the following, by
which it seems likely that three United
SlalessoIdiers have been killed by Indians
"trom one OF our citizens, Just returned
from FL Paso, we learn that on the 2Stl
OF October three soldiers left the camp o
Fort Davis on a scout, and to look io
Indian trails, taking not enough provision
for one day. On the Sd insland they hat
not returned, when a lieutenant and 2C
men started out in search Of the lost par
ty. About four miles from the camp the,
came on the trail Of the soldiers, and lounC
they were followed by about 30 Indians
ltis supposed that they we're killed
"About II mile above BarolI'slspring.
the trail Of about 90 Indians was seen
they having passed there on the mornin.
OF the ID.
ale met the mail at Live Oak creek
on the llth, ami Captain Skilman's par

day, and also the boundary commission
