The ketch Mary Ann Hudson arrived in port on Sunday evening after being ashore at Mohaka for three weeks. She got ashore on the 25th of last month, and was floated off by the Mohaka settlers on Saturday last. Tlxe injury she has sustained is but trifling. She brings a lively, cargo of 34 pigs, consigned to Captain Rush, and are shipped, according to her manifest by Captain Cook, whether that personage is a present settler at Mohaka, or is intended for the great circumnavigator, we are at a loss to determine.
