A formal communication was received from tho Premier of New Zealand, acknowledging receipt of a petition, asking for assistance in the endeavors of the Fijians to get attached to the colony of New Zealand.

The labor schooner Winifred has arrived at Suva. She brought Mr Coll and the boatswain of the Windward-ho, who were taken from that vessel—the one suffering from a bullet wound, and the other from a spear thrust.
