Mary Ann Hudson, ketch, for Wairoa, to-morrow Columbia, schooner, for Auckland, via Poverty Bay and Tauranga, early There are few of our readers, we imagine, who will not regret to learn that there is a probability of that uuiversal favorite, the s.s. Star of the South, being taken off the trade between this port and Auckland, in which she has so long been engaged. It is current rumor tbat she has been, or is to be, sold to Mr Houghton, of Dunedin, who, it will be remembered, was owner of the steamer Ahuriri at the time of that vessel's wreck. The Star has been undergoing a thorough overhaul at Auckland during the past few days, and may shortly be expected to arrive here. Mr Houghton, we learn, is at present in Napier. The ship Hovding has on board 2,358 pieces timber (Baltic pine) for Callao, whither, we presume, she proceeds from this port. The schooner Columbia, from Auckland via Mercury Bay, may now be daily expected to arrive in port.
