Neither ot thein expected to live. Hoira is wounded the worst, and his lite ib in imminent peril. This man was the actual murderer of Priiu'le, ma ter of the cutter Kate, tnd he stated that he had cut him down himself on board the vessel. The prisoners are handed over to Major Kirbv, fiSth Kegt. The women captured have been released, but tliey an; the wives of the murderers of the crew of the Kate, at Wakatano. Further expeditions bad started from all parts of coast for the purpose of having revenue on the murderers of Mr. Kulloon, hut no further particulars had reached our correspondent up to the i/th inst. August 16. The mail is in from Jfakctu, hut no news of the Arawa expedition. There is, I believe, great excitement, and I mn trreatly afraid that it will bean awful and eerious struggle.
