The following are additional particulars of the San Francisco mail steamer’s last trip. The Mikado left San Francisco shortly before noon on January 6, the mails being four days late in reaching that city .-—Arrived at Honolulu at 9.30 a.m. on the 14th, and sailed again at 6.30 a.m.'On the 15th. Very little assistance was obtained from the winds until after leaving the Sandwich Islands. The engines worked without stopping both passages through. On the Saturday morning before reaching Auckland, the use of one boiler had to be discontinued in consequence of the burning of its tubes, thus causing the voyage to be lengthened by about eight hours.
