 to ths Commander 0f the Boston.
 WAgUadToN, March 15.-The mail from Honolulu which reached San Fran disco last Thursday has arrived in Wash ington. The annexation commissioners fsUeived large budget of newspapers and lettsrs.
 One of tho letters stated that Mr. Wode- house, the English Consul General at Honolulu. had, up to the time the steamer left there, not called upon the members of the provisional government, nor extended to them any of the usual courtcsies. The same was true of the officers of the lived in the harbor, and the letter giving this Information stated that they seemed to be Actang under the influence of the British officials.
 The reception given to Capt. Wiltse, of the U. 8. g. Boston just prior to his depar- thre from the islands for San Francisco was tho largest social affair ever held in Honolulu.
 It was given under the auspices of the proviaiopal government and leading citi- gems. The officers of the British steamer Garnet, who had been invited, did not at tend the reception.
 Amember of the provisional govern ment wrote to the commissioners stating that there was no truth in the report that . 0tvfsion of opinion existed among mem bers of the Cabinet, but that everything was progressing with the same harmony that marked the inauguration of it's ad- mtnistration.
 The same mail brought two despatches to the Navy Department, which were not given to the public.
