The Tararua arrived in the roadstead on Saturday evening from Greynioutb. She was tendered by the Waipara, aud then despatched to Melbourne, the tender boat returning to port yesterday morning. The Hokitika passengers per Tararua were for porpe inscrutable reason landed at Greymouth, although the Hokitika mails and some packages of goods were sent on here, and brought to the wharf by the Waipara. We are unaware what was the nature of the representation which induced the passengers to go ushorp at Greymoutb. Some extra expense will be entailed on Messrs M'Meckan, Blackwood, and Co., but no doubt their Greymouth agents will bear the loss.
