Maricopa arrived today from Australia and
Honolulu. From passengers it is learned

meet with considerable favor and it is
stated the sugar planters are working for
annexation and using all means to carry it
to successful issue.

Hawaii the 9th inst, doing great damage.
The rice crop will probably be badly in
