SJX VOLUME DOLLARS 1. M'.MBKR PER ANNUM. 81. ! T23 PACiriC Commercial Advertiser, - -- - i One of the peculiarities of the Hawaiian Kingdom ! is its foreign population composed of natives of almost every country of the Pacific if not of the glubc. Especially is it so with the population of Honolulu, where merchants, tradesmen or residents arc found who arc the representatives of probably twenty-fiv- e or thirty different nations. They have been attracted here in the hope of bettering their for- tunes, and thus have become identified with the place. Among the early adventurers to this group, was a young and enterprising Chinaman named Chuwun, who was probably the pioneer of the numerous Chi- nese merchants, who have long borne an active part tis tradesmen at these islands. It was in the year 1823, if we arc rightly informed, that he arrived here, bringing with him a stock of Chinese goods, silks, and fancy articles, and we. can readily imagine the monopoly he may have enjoyed for a while, till the report of his success brought other adventurers from China. From that date down to the present, the Chinese have formed no insignificant portion of the foreign population of the Islands. Some of them have been large importers, and become wealthy, but gen- erally they arc retailers, peddlers, or bakers. So long ago as wc can remember, this amusing verse was a favorite announcement of a Chinese firm in Honolulu : Good people all, walk ia ami buy, Of Sa.m aud Mow, good cake ami pie, . Dread hard or soft, for laud or sea, Celestial made, come buy of wc." The nu mber of Chinese now on these Islands, in- cluding coolies, must be at least COO. The more respectable of the merchants are a quiet, honest and peaceable class, aud among the King's subjects he lias none more loyal than the Chinese. It may be mentioned in their praise, that for years they have maintained here in Honolulu, at their own expense, a fire engine which is promptly manned at every alarm, and has often done great service in checking the spread of fires. The idea which prompted the Chinese merchants to give some marked testimonial of their loyalty to the Sovereign of their adopted country, was a happy one, and showed that they were ambitious to equal at least their fellow citizens in honoring the King." The festival" consisted of a ball which took place on Thursday evening, Nov. 13, at the. court house. An unusually large number of invitations had been issued, in conformity with the wishes of the Chinese motvliawts, that none should be omitted, and it is probable that'oVcr "one. thousand persons visited the hall during the evening. At the outer door, which had been festoned for the occasion, and also at the entrance of the hall, visitors met and greeted the Chinese merchants, all dressed in the different styles of Mandarins. But when their Majesties arrived the long line of Mandarins bowed their heads very low, till they passed, which is the Chinese custom hi the royal presence. On entering the hall, guests accosted the Manda- rins Anglais, Weong Chong Hoffmann, Chong Fong Vield, Ming Ching llcincrs, and Weong Kong Water- man, dressed in Chinese costume, fins included, who were charged with the duties tf Directors general a ball being practically above the comprehension of a Chinaman. The decorations of the Hill wore a decidedly Chi- nese aspect, and yo may say were truly .magnificent. What first attracted the eye on entering wa3 a canopy with a lounge for the royal guests, constructed for the occasion, and surrounded with Chinese transparen- cies, intermingled with Hawaiian and Chinese flags. The latter were an entire novelty here, showing, when ppread, a monstrous gilt and red figure, a sort of a dragon with wings. Hanging in each window was a large boquet of flowers, representing vases, a mon- strous spider with legs three feet in length, a dragon- fly five feet long, a butterfly of equal dimensions, &e. Opjosite to the seat provided for their Majesties, aud shining lrroTgh a beautiful transparency, which was erected over the main entrance, was the saluta- tion aloha nui, and under it the same in Chinese characters. . .In the hall hung a large octaginal lan- tern, made for the occasion, bearing on its sides fig- ures of men and animals, all in motion, capering about with life-lik- e precision, the workmanship of which evinced a good deal of skill and ingenuity. Their Majesties arrived about half past nine, soon after which the dancing commenced, but owing to the crowd, gave less satisfaction wc suppose, than might otherwise have been derived. We give the original programme of the evening, as it may interest our readers and serve as a precedent : GEE JIK TUNG SUN KIE YIN C JIAMU BONO LOOK "SIS Sl"P CU LOOK T1K KCSQ CUISIJ TCOIYG KA3IEIS A3IEIIA .

The collation .man in) was perhaps the richest ami most expensive part of the festival. It consisted of three tables across the llall of Representative with seats for 150 ladies. The .taste displayed in 4ttii" up this feast is a little ahead of anything we have ever witnessed here or elsewhere. The tables seemed to groan under, the weight , Not the least notice- able were some pagodas and tcmpUs constractel of pattry, but perfect imitations cf Chinese structures about three feet high, with doors, windows, arid even tiny bells hanging around. Those carved water melons ornamented with dragons and all sorts of reptiles, and flowers were something we had never before seen, and should not have known what they were, hut being informed by a Chinaman. The pas- - try and confectionery was mostly got up by the Chinese, but the meats and more substantial dishes were provided by our neighbor Yictor, who, on this occasion, as on former ones, convinced every one that he understands his business. r The evening passed off pleasantly, though the ex- cessive crowd and the indiscriminate assemblage of all Honolulu has been freely commented on. Our Chi- nese friends may rest assured that if their efforts are an indication of their hearts, they as yet stand far above Us outside barbarians in our efforts to ' honor the King." We understand that the cost cf the fes- tival was near &4, 000. ' ' SHIPPING. FOR SAN FRANCISCO DIRECT. TUE AMERICAN BRIG Yj. P. Foster) CIIAS. II.

One of the peculiarities of the Hawaiian Kingdom !

is its foreign population composed of natives ofalmost every country of the Pacific if not of theglubc. Especially is it so with the population ofHonolulu, where merchants, tradesmen or residentsarc found who arc the representatives of probablytwenty-fiv-e or thirty different nations. They havebeen attracted here in the hope of bettering their for-

tunes, and thus have become identified with theplace.

Among the early adventurers to this group, was ayoung and enterprising Chinaman named Chuwun,who was probably the pioneer of the numerous Chi-

nese merchants, who have long borne an active parttis tradesmen at these islands. It was in the year1823, if we arc rightly informed, that he arrived here,bringing with him a stock of Chinese goods, silks,and fancy articles, and we. can readily imagine themonopoly he may have enjoyed for a while, till thereport of his success brought other adventurers fromChina. From that date down to the present, theChinese have formed no insignificant portion of theforeign population of the Islands. Some of them havebeen large importers, and become wealthy, but gen-

erally they arc retailers, peddlers, or bakers. Solong ago as wc can remember, this amusing versewas a favorite announcement of a Chinese firm inHonolulu :

Good people all, walk ia ami buy,Of Sa.m aud Mow, good cake ami pie, .

Dread hard or soft, for laud or sea,Celestial made, come buy of wc."

The nu mber of Chinese now on these Islands, in-

cluding coolies, must be at least COO. The morerespectable of the merchants are a quiet, honest andpeaceable class, aud among the King's subjects helias none more loyal than the Chinese. It may bementioned in their praise, that for years they havemaintained here in Honolulu, at their own expense,a fire engine which is promptly manned at everyalarm, and has often done great service in checkingthe spread of fires.

The idea which prompted the Chinese merchants togive some marked testimonial of their loyalty to theSovereign of their adopted country, was a happyone, and showed that they were ambitious to equalat least their fellow citizens in honoring the King."The festival" consisted of a ball which took placeon Thursday evening, Nov. 13, at the. court house.An unusually large number of invitations had beenissued, in conformity with the wishes of the Chinesemotvliawts, that none should be omitted, and it isprobable that'oVcr "one. thousand persons visited thehall during the evening. At the outer door, whichhad been festoned for the occasion, and also at theentrance of the hall, visitors met and greeted theChinese merchants, all dressed in the different stylesof Mandarins. But when their Majesties arrivedthe long line of Mandarins bowed their heads verylow, till they passed, which is the Chinese custom hithe royal presence.

On entering the hall, guests accosted the Manda-rins Anglais, Weong Chong Hoffmann, Chong FongVield, Ming Ching llcincrs, and Weong Kong Water-man, dressed in Chinese costume, fins included, whowere charged with the duties tf Directors generala ball being practically above the comprehension of aChinaman.

The decorations of the Hill wore a decidedly Chi-

nese aspect, and yo may say were truly .magnificent.What first attracted the eye on entering wa3 a canopywith a lounge for the royal guests, constructed for theoccasion, and surrounded with Chinese transparen-cies, intermingled with Hawaiian and Chinese flags.The latter were an entire novelty here, showing, whenppread, a monstrous gilt and red figure, a sort of adragon with wings. Hanging in each window was alarge boquet of flowers, representing vases, a mon-strous spider with legs three feet in length, a dragon-fly five feet long, a butterfly of equal dimensions, &e.

Opjosite to the seat provided for their Majesties,aud shining lrroTgh a beautiful transparency, whichwas erected over the main entrance, was the saluta-tion aloha nui, and under it the same in Chinesecharacters. . .In the hall hung a large octaginal lan-tern, made for the occasion, bearing on its sides fig-

ures of men and animals, all in motion, caperingabout with life-lik- e precision, the workmanship ofwhich evinced a good deal of skill and ingenuity.Their Majesties arrived about half past nine, soonafter which the dancing commenced, but owing to thecrowd, gave less satisfaction wc suppose, than mightotherwise have been derived. We give the originalprogramme of the evening, as it may interest ourreaders and serve as a precedent :

It consisted ofthree tables across the llall of Representative withseats for 150 ladies. The .taste displayed in 4ttii"up this feast is a little ahead of anything we haveever witnessed here or elsewhere. The tables seemedto groan under, the weight , Not the least notice-

able were some pagodas and tcmpUs constractel ofpattry, but perfect imitations cf Chinese structures

about three feet high, with doors, windows, arid eventiny bells hanging around. Those carved watermelons ornamented with dragons and all sorts ofreptiles, and flowers were something we had neverbefore seen, and should not have known what theywere, hut being informed by a Chinaman. The pas--try and confectionery was mostly got up by theChinese, but the meats and more substantial disheswere provided by our neighbor Yictor, who, onthis occasion, as on former ones, convinced every onethat he understands his business. r

The evening passed off pleasantly, though the ex-

cessive crowd and the indiscriminate assemblage ofall Honolulu has been freely commented on. Our Chi-

nese friends may rest assured that if their efforts arean indication of their hearts, they as yet stand farabove Us outside barbarians in our efforts to ' honorthe King." We understand that the cost cf the fes-

tival was near &4,000. ' '

THURSDAY, TfOr. 20, 1856.Trade of all kinds has been btlaV during the past week, and

we notice some Improvement In salea at auction, which perhap9b the best index of th st.nt r,t onr martet. A laree sale ofclothing takes place to-d- ay at tiie rooms of A. P. Everett, andagain 01 Tuesday next. M. C. ilonsarrat has a large clothingeale en Friday. The improveaint in xetail trade is also spokenc4 by several retail merchants.

The number of whale ships in port yesterday was CS, mer-

chant and war vessels 10, coasters 4 ; making a total of 82 ves-

sels In port, which is probably the largest number we shall have

at one time during this season. The number of whalers yet to

arrive at the islands cannot be les3 than about 40, which i3 less

than the number of arrivals la3t year after this date.There have been two arrivals of merchant vessels during the

past week, Bremen ship Post, wixh some 400 cr 500 tons as-

sorted mdse to Iloffschlager and Stapenhorst, the balance of hercargo being for San Francisco, for which port she will meet withdespatch. The Am. brig L. P. Foster, brings a cargo oflumber and spars to Uackfeld k Co. She will sail for San Fran-cisco about the 1st December, and will probably carry a fullcargo of island produce. The Frances Palmer is now fully duefrom San Francisco, and may arrive any moment. She willbring two large mails, those of Sept. 20 and Oct. 5.

CHINA MARKETS.(From Armstrong Lawrence's Circular.)

Hongkong, August 9th.Rice Has advanced fully $1 per picul since our last, the cops

fn the neighboring districts having been almost wholly destroy-ed, by the almost unprecedented ly heavy rains that have pre-vailed here for the List two months, whilst, at the North thecrop has been destroyed by a drought of equal duration. Therecan be little doubt, therefore, but that the price of this commod-ity will continue to advance, and, for a time, at least, somethinglike a recurrence of the high prices which prevailed last yearmay be anticipated.

Discoveries of the Age. Some of the most wonderful results of human intellect have been witnessedin the last fifty years. It is remarkable how the mindof the world has run into scientific investigation, andwhat achievements it has effected in that short period.

Fulton launched the first steamboat in 1807, nowthere are 3,000 steamboats traversing the waters ofAmerica only.

In 182o the first railroad was put in operation inMassachusetts.

" In 1800 there was not a single railroad in theworld. In the United States alone there are now8,797 miles of railroad, costing 8286,000,QQQ to build,and about 22,000 miles of railroad in England andAmerica.

The electric telegraph had its beginning in 1843.The electro-magn- et was difjeovered in 1821 ; and

electrotyping is a still later invention."Hoe's printing press, capable of printing 10,000

copies an hour, is a very recent discovery.4t Gas liffht was unknown in 1800 ; now every cny

and town of any pretence is lighted with it, and wehave the announcement of a still greater discovery,by which light, heat, motive power, may all be pro-duced from water, with scarcely any cost.

Daguerre communicated to the world his beautiful invention in 1839.

"Gun cotton and chloroform are discoveries but afew old.

Astronomy has added a number of new planetsto the solar system.

Howland,

Eliza

Tiskalet,

What will the next half century accomplish ? "We

may look for still greater discoveries ; for the intel-lect of man is awake, exploring every mine of know-ledge, and searching for useful information in everydepartment of art and industry."

Motive. Hoi v intention is to the actions of a manthat which the soul is to the body, or form to its matter, or the root to the tree, or the sun to the world,or the fountain to a river, or the base to a pillar ;for without these, the body is a dead trunk, the mat- -

, , . ,4 t 1 .1 - i 11i fciuggisn, me tree is a diock, tne worm is uars--ness, the river is quickly dry, the pillar rushes intoflatness and a ruin : and the action , is sinful, or un--prohtable and vain. The poor farmer that gave adish of cold water to Artaxerxes was rewarded witha golden goblet, and he that gives the same to a dis-ciple in the name of a disciple, shall have a crown ;but if he gives water in despite, when the discipleneeds wine or a cordial, his reward will be to wantthat water to cool his tongue. Jeremy Taylor.

THE PACIFICCommercial Advertiser,

THURSDA r, NO VEMBER 20.The character and tastes of a community may in

general be judged of by the nature of its amusements.In places where the ordinary means of recreation areaccessible to all, the standard is a just one. Butsuch a test applied to the society of Honolulu, wouldbe obviously incorrect. It would be unjust to judgeof our tastes wholly, by the character of our amuse-ments, because in our isolated position we are notable to choose for ourselves. The thousand and oneresources of rational and elevating amusements whichare within the reach of other communities are deniedto us. We are beyond the " beat" of those talentedand literary men who, by their able lectures and es-

says, delight and instruct the residents of more favored locations. We are deprived of the pleasure oflistening to celebrated orators, singers and perform-ers ; of visiting collections of paintings and sculpture.Even ' Welch's. Menagerie," or Jarley's WaxWorks" has never crossed the ocean for our benefit.It is true we have been honored by a visit from, Yankee Sullivan" with his exhibitions of the noble art of self defence." We did have a circus too ;

but the hotel keepers petitioned the Legislature againsta renewal of their license, it being considered an injury to the prosperity of the place, as sailors spentthe money in visits to the circus jvhich would other-

wise have been invested in bad grog and worse dancehouses ; and so the circus company, fearing perhapsthat the prayer of the petitioners would be granted,has not returned.

We have too good an opinion of our communityhowever, to believe that it should be judged lackingin the desire to enjoy, or the taste to appreciate themore rational sources of amusement merely becauseof our inability to procure them. As justly mightwe be charged with an invincible repugnance to greenpeas, fresh oysters, peaches, or ice cream. The fullattendance generally found at the few lectures oraddresses that are delivered here, even upon subjectsof but little general interest, and the furor created bythe accidental visit of Kate Hays, are evidences thatwe do not lack the desire for more intellectual entertainments than those of our ordinary life. Wouldthat our residents had more frequent opportunities ofgratifying their tastes in this respect.

But that we do not endeavor to the best of our abilities to provide agreeable and innocent amusements,that shall be attractive to the young, is perhaps, acharge to which we must plead guilty. We are toolittle apt to consider that young people must andshould have amusements, and that it is our duty tosee that they are pVovided with them, and that if wedo not render the home circle and its pleasures at-

tractive, the young men at least, will seek for pleas-

ures elsewhere. What are now our chief sources ofsocial recreadon and amusement ? Are they as vari-ous and attractive as they might be ? We think not.The meetings of the different benevolent societies asat present conducted, can hardly be classed underthis head, though they might easily be rendered such.There arc a few private social parties, where an evening may occasionally be spent in agreeable andharmless recreation. In these days of large publicdancing parties however, these smaller, but infinitelymore agreeable reunions, are but of infrequent occur-rence. It would be much better if we had more ofthem, and fewer grand miscellaneous balls, wherecrowded and heated rooms, late suppers, and laterhours, render the penalty at least equivalent to theenjoyment.

But is dancing the only means of amusement withinthe reach of our young men and ladies ? Many per-sons find no pleasure in this species of exercise, anda large and most estimable class of our society, are,from religious training and education opposed to dan-cing. They have been taught from infancy to lookon it as an immoral amusement in itself, unworthy(5f a Christian, and upon those who practice it as un-fit associates. And though there are some of theclass who believe there is no impropriety in dancing,viewed as a recreation, and who would gladly partic-ipate in so agreeable an amusement, yet force of habitor fear of giving offence, prevents them from over-stepping the conventional line. And at any socialgathering where the young of both Sexes are met, ifa dance is proposed to enliven the monotony of theoccasion, it is the signal for this class to rise at once,shake the dust from off their feet and depart from thecontaminating sight of this so-cal- led sinful pleasure.Hence well-br- ed persons will decline to propose attheir parties, an amusement which they know to beoffensive to a large and worthy portion of their guests,and as this portion do not usually assist with muchzeal in the effort to substitute other less objectionablemeans of entertainment, the natural consequence isthat these parties, whether meetings of sewing circlesor private gatherings, are voted intolerable bores,and those gentlemen who are compelled by a sense ofduty, or by positive instructions from the petticoatpowers, to attend, with a few courageous exceptions,congregate on the verandahs ; and while the ladieswithin talk collars and hooped skirts,Hheir husbandsor beaux settle the matter of the weather, and havingtalked over the rate of Whaler's Exchange, and theprice of putty, sit and smoke in moody silence, tillthe welcome orders are. received to." get. underweigh."

The natural result is, that many of our young menfor whom these lively ."reunions" have no attrac-tions, and who have few or no resources within themselves, seek amusement in scenes and places unworthy of them, but for which, alas ! they only too sonrender themselves completely worthy. The articleover the signature of " Hulahula" in our last issue,though the keen edge of its quiet sarcasm would behardly noticed by the casual reader, has attractedpublic attention to the vile character and tendency ofsome of these scenes, and recalls to the thoughtlessfrequenter of them, a consideration of the enormityof the wrong he is doing to himself and to society.At is naraiy creaioie tfcat sucn xnmgs are lor a mo-

ment Buffered to exist in Honolulu. That personsclaiming respectability in society, could descend tosuch vile expedients for the sake of pecuniary gain ;or that persons who from their education, wealth,position or abilities, ought to lead the public sentiment, and give tone and "character to our society,should eo far forget their self respect, or the claims

of society, as to patronise and countenance such out

rages upon public morality and decency, as tne scenes

to which "Hulahula" alludes. Wrhen such amuse-

ments are sought by men to whom their own family ties

and associations are powerless for restraint, it is time

for every father, husband and brother to rouse himself

and endeavor to protect those dear to him trom thecontaminating presence of those whose moral senti-

ment is so far destroyed by the influence of such un-

hallowed and polluting scenes. If persons are to be

tolerated in society who frequent such scenes, we

shall Eson cease to wonder at the effrontery withwhich on a recent public occasion, known prostitutesor cast off mistresses, who by 6ome chance had ob-

tained admission, though we are informed that notickets had been issued to them by the managers,were selected as partners by young men who wouldindignantly resent any imputation on their own re-

spectability, and who danced with them under thevery eyes of virtuous ladies, who perhaps had beentheir predecessors in the dance with these misguided

youth.But such things must not be tolerated. EveTy vir-

tuous heart in this community should rise at once andrebuke this foul stain, this damning blot on our soci-

ety. We have been too long indifferent to the pro-

gress of this evil, and now it is brought home to ourvery doors. On the ladies themselves much of thisresponsibility rests, of correcting this evil, and withthem too, the power to furnish to our young men in-

nocent and attractive sources of amusement, that maysave some who have already strayed from the path ofvirtuous enjoyment, and will do much to preventothers from feeling any desire to seek those impurepleasures. To do this it is not necessary to violateany religious scruples, though a little more charitytowards the liberal views of those who are knownto be pure and high principled and who have bee"educated with such views, would not be amiss. Werespect the religious scruples ofall classes, even thoughsome may deem them prejudices, and would not de-

sire to see any means of amusement introduced atour sewing circles or other social gatherings thatwould offend those scruples. But we can and mustendeavor to render the social circle more attractiveto our young men. If it is not proper to introducedancing, introduce some other species of entertain-ment. The young are easily amused, and if thewretched formality and stiffness which now character-ise many of our little parties was scattered to thewinds,, enjoyment would naturally follow.

It may be considered by some to be out of ourprovince, as public journalists, to comment on thecharacter ofour social amusements, but we believe itto be the strict duty of the press to endeavor to cor-

rect abuses when they become public, whether re-

lating to individuals or to the public welfare. We donot enter into the discussion of abstract questions ofmorals, nor dp we seek to drag the immoralities ofour neighbors into light ; but if they so far forgetwhat is due to themselves and to the community, asto protrude their immoralities in public, and outragecommon propriety and decency, we have no courseleft us but to comment thereon with that freedomwhich the public good demands. We have receivedseveral communications on this same subject, show-

ing the excited feeling of the community in the mat-ter, but the length of our remarks must exclude themfor the present.

EJ" We are not anxious to have the " last word"to say in a controversy which can add no laurels tothe official gentlemen who have unfortunately beenmost prominent in it, but the frank and honest state-ment offacts in the last Polynesian, appears to estab-lish the following points :

1st. That the article in the Polynesian of Nov. 8,is official i. e. the sentiment of the Ministry andPrivy Council, there being no correction or refutationof that statement.

2d. It is conceded that our statements relating tothe contents of the Polynesian of Aug. 30, are en-

tirely incorrect, the paper examined proves to havebeen that of Sept. 6. We make the correction withpleasure, and concede that the " color of the man inthe moon" is definitely settled.

3d. The proofs brought forward in the Polynesianof Nov. 15, establish as a fact what be fore was onlycommon report, that Mr. Wyllie while acting as II.H. M.'s Minister of Foreign Relations has for the last12 or 18 months acted also as consignee or agent fora large invoice of spirituous liquors, generally supposed to amount to $15,000 or 18,000.

4th. That the above invoice of liquors on its arrivalmight have been turned over to the Agent of the Hon.Hudson's Bay Co., or any other of our responsibleliquor merchants.

5th. That Mr. Wyllie is "the kindest friend"that the Royal Hotel or its proprietor " has ever hadon earth" a point that nobody has evor disputed orhad the slightest doubts about, and " strangers whohave led a mercantile life will see through the thingat a glance."

6th. The Polynesian is requested to state whetherthe honorable Minister has been holding the above invoice of liquors with or without a license ; if with alicense, the date of its issue ; if -- without a license,how honest liquor importers can be expected to com-

pete under the circumstances.7th. To state also, to what extent it is allowable

for His Majesty's Ministers to become consignees ormerchants.

P. S. Since writing the above, we have beenfavored with the following very courteous note, informing us that His Excellency's ire has again been stirredup, and that another casus belli has boen discovered.Our neighbor of the Polynesian need not be deterredhowever from answering the above queries, unless hehas " orders" to the contrary, as we guarantee heshall not be damaged thereby. We give the correspondence in full, as the latest intelligence from theSeat of War. .

It having been suggested that on the return of HisMajesty the injunction of secrecy which attaches touie preceeaings oi tne x'rivy Uouncil might be removed , and the facts reardinc the license f MrMaxey made public, all proceedings of a hostile na-ture were deferred, in the hope that you might be-come Convinced that von ra.v jurI liniustlv towardMr..

NOTES OF THE WEEK.

2-- The annual meeting of the Sailor's Home Soci-

ety was held on Monday evening last at the Bethel.-Th- e

house was densely crowded. The Hon. W. Lv

Lee presided. The report of the President giving thetransactions of the Society for the year past was read,,after which was read the report of the Treasurer, which'showed the receipts during the year to have been

$4,670 21, the expenditures $6,359, leaving a debt of '

$1,714 38 on the society. The president announcedat the meeting that His Majesty had pledged anotherhundred dollars to the institution, which announce-

ment was received with great applause. The Hon.David L. Gregg, U. S. Commissioner, next addressedthe meeting, in one of those happy speeches charac-teristic of him, in which he alluded to the great bene-

fits which are found to result from Homes, both inEngland and the continent, and showed pretty clearlyhow Jack is everywhere, but especially in Honolulu,considered a fit subject for fleecing. We regret thatwe have not the space to give a report jThis address.

Several other gentlemen spoke, and a degree of good

feeling and humor was exhibited, rarely shown ex-

cept when sailors and landsmen get to expressuigtheir ideas together, as on this occasion.

Defalcation. The sudden departure of the super-

intendent of public schools for Hawaii on Thursdaylast, was caused, we learn, by intelligence that Ex-Gover-

nor

Kapeau, is reported a defaulter, whileacting as school treasurer. This is owing in partperhaps to the very convenient mode followed on thatisland, of allowing taxes to be placed for safe keep-

ing in the hands of school trustees, instead of send-

ing them to the Government sub-Treas- ury in Hono-

lulu. It is not long ago that Mr. Kapeau was charg-

ed with a defalcation of road-fun- ds to the extent of.$500. How that was smoothed over, we have neverheard. If Mr. Kapeau is a public defaulter, makean example of him. Leniency with official delin-

quents sometimes may produce good results, but re-

petition of gross frauds, can not be excused. Let thegovernment act promptly in the matter.

R. n. Theater. During the past week noveltiesin great variety have been presented at this house bythe managers. To-nig- ht Miss Louise Graves presentsherself for her first benefit this season. No highercompliment could be given to her than the fLasyryextract from the Sierra Citizen, wiiere she first made

her public appearance :

Louise Graves. We have often spoken of thisyoung lady as an artiste of extm.ordir.ary merit, andthe applause of the audience th? other night quite'justifies our opinion. Her first appearance, of anynote, was here a little girl, coming tremblingly onthe stage, with the imprint of genius on her face, andndbly has she fulfilled the promise of t hat time. Welldone, Louise ! The world is all full of sunshine foryou."

U. S. Postal Advertising Agenct. By referenceto our advertising columns, our readers will see thata new system has been introduced into the U. SPost-offi- ce department, by which letters for CaliforniaOregon, and we suppose the Sandwich Islands also,

can on the payment of 3 cts each, be advertised. This

system will no doubt prove of use, to those who are

cruising about the Pacific, especially to seaman on

whalers. The list will probably be sent to the Postoffice in Honolulu, whenever letters are advertised in

it for this Kingdom.

On our first pafee will be found an account of

the Chinese Festival on the 13th inst. Also ships

advertised for foreign ports. The Whalemen's Ship

List on our 4th page, now reports over 200 whalers

which we have endeavored to make correct, but if our

whaling friends detect errors, we will thank them to

notify us. Among so many figures, errors can easily

creep in. On the fifth and sixth pages will be found

a variety of foreign and miscellaneous news.

A Fire occurred yesterday afternoon about' 3

o'clock, consuming a small native house, beyond

Smith's Church. - Engine No. 1 arrived first on theground, but we understand that No. 2 has the creditof throwing the first water on the fire.

A meeting of the American Club was held lastevening at the Club rooms. The attendant waslarge, and the meeting was addressed by Hon. D. L.

Gregg, Dr. Lathrop, U. S. Consul, and others.

TnE Weather, for the last few days, has been dulland gloomy, and we judge a long and heavy Kcna is

setting in.

?f-- Captains of whale ships who have furnishedus with reports, will accept our thanks for thesefavors. They have aided us very much in makingout our ship news.

Meteors have been quite frequent during this

month. We noticed one a few evenings since which

had a tail some eight or ten degrees in length, and

lighted the atmosphere nearly as bright as a frlmoon.

A Reindeer. A fine specimen of this animal was

brought from the Ochotsk by the bark Vernon, and

is the property of Capt. Makee. Its horns are some

ten or twelve inches long and covered with hair.

Erratum. In one of the paragraphs of the com-

munication from the Lahaina merchants, published

last week, our types made them state the opposite of

what the copy says. It should read : " As to our

"Resident agents," tee hare none among us,'

Killed by a Shark. A boat steerer of the ship

Navigator was, while swimming by the ship yester-

day, seized by a large shark. He escaped once from

the monster of the deep, but was again caught an

taken down. His name was Cornelius Coughlcn,' agi22 years of New York City.

Viil of !ic Whaling Bark Philip I. at theLoo Choo Island.".

Mb. Editor : On my passage from G aim to theJapan Sea in Lat. 27 SO N., and Long. 125 SO E., Ifoil in with a junk dismasted and in a completely dis-

abled condition, took on board the people, twenty-tevc- n

men and women, and steered for Loo Choo,

where they said they wished to go. Took them onboard the 15th of February, and on the 17th wentinto the harbor of Napa Kiang and landed them, to--Jgcthcr with what they had saved from the wreck.The officials treated me very kindly, invited me andmy officers to a feast at the court house. I receivedseveral presents from the Governor of Napa and alsofrom the Regent of the Kingdom. The Governor alsosent on board two bullocks, four hogs, two goats, five

hundred eggs, and also fowls and vegetables. Theyalso furnished me with two tons of very good sweet

lotatoes at a very reasonable charge. The junk wasa government one from Napa bound to Ty-pin-s- an

Jladjaco, Sima Inlands, with a mandarin on board

is governor. She was dismasted five days out, andhad been drifting about unmanageable for some time.They were short of water at the time I fell in withthem.

The harbor of Napa Kiang bears about E. from theKalama or Amerkirrama Islands, distant ten ortwelve miles, and is easy of access with the wind any-- I

1

where from the western quarter, but rather, difficultto a stranger as it will appear to be a perfect laby-rinth of reefs. There is a very dangerous reef to thegouth of the harbor, some four or five miles from LooChoo ; and also some low coral islands and extensivereefs to the north of the port. Steer East from theKalama Islands to pass between these reefs, keepingthe north one one and a half or two miles distant,and if it is clear the town of Napa will be seen, andalso the reefs at the entrance of the port when, ac-

cording to their treaty with Commodore Perry, askillful pilot will come ofF to conduct the ship to theanchorage, which is in eleven fathoms and secure.

According to the little information I could gatherthere, I do not think it a proper place for a whalehhip to get a recruit for the North, as the people orrather the officials, are reluctant about furnishinganything to a stranger, being, in fact, under the ruleofJapau. Wood can be got there at five dollars perton, and water at the rate of forty-fiv-e cents fur sixbarrels. , Bex. II. Sissox,

Lahaina, Nov. 15, 1856.

Mr. Editor : " Truth," in your last number,imagining me to be " Ilorspiece," tries to apply hismincing knife, but chiefly succeeds ;n mincing Truth.It seems that only two boys were arrested for furiousriding, instead of three, and that they were not thesons but the cabin boys of the ship masters who at-

tended their trial. To these grievous errors of state-ment I plead guilty, having made a mistake in theseparticulars ; observing, however, that they werefavorite boys with their masters, who were very indig-nant at the injustice attempted towards them, andefficiently protected them from it, by seeing that thenecessary evidence for their defence, as well as legalservices were provided. They were not " dischargedfor lack of evidence," but because the testimony ofthe policemen who arrested them was rebutted by anabundance of better testimony, which showed thatthe boys were not and had not been riding out of amoderate pace. The insinuation of T. that they werenot proved to" be innocent by their discharge, is avery unworthy one.

T. entirely slura over the principal point of my remarks, whichwere that it was necessary to direct iu a better manner the

activity of our native police. I cannot see that any goodend of government is attained by directing the chief force of theLia-'-s arm against strangers. I think no one who observes thebearing on this subject will deny that the delinquencies of sea-- m

n are far inure vigorously prosecuted than those of nativesuna restaents. The reason Is plaiu. They are easier to catch.The lazy police"prcfer to" exert themselves where there is thelargest and easiest yield, instead of laboriously ferreting out themore hurtful crimes of the knowing and wily. A native police-man thinks a sailor is his lawful prey, and hi deals with himmercilessly. Your readers will recognize the literal truth of thisremark. 11 ow often my blood h:is boiled at seeing the cowardlybrutality of a gang of natives as t?iey lugged a drunken sailor tothe fort, beatimr and dratruriiiir him like a dog. On the otherhand when the rest of a quiet fanvily is disturbed by a drunkenIolicemaii again and again on different nights, nothing short ofsevere threats can Induce Ins comrades to arrest ana conune mm,and then it is edifying to witness their meek appea's to the ob-

streperous gentleman to come along. This is a kind of discrim-ination that 1 should like to see exactly reversed. It is simplya cowardly way of treating strangers to .mark them out as thelcculiar objects of the law's severity, and a very ungrateful, in-

hospitable way of treating a class to whom this kingdom is somuch indebted f r its support. Those who have authority overthe iguoraut kaiko will merit well of their country, if they willjrive particular attention to restraining this vicious propensity ofLis to oppress the stranger. JJ.OSP&?

The old adage " it is best to let well alone" is un-doubtedly true, because when any thing apparentlyanswers the purpose for which it is intended, eventhough it should not reach perfection, the chancesare, that by an attempt to make it pass for somethingsuperlatively good, we either mar our own work orelse draw attention to irregularities and blemishes,which, although rough and glaring, might otherwisehave been passed by as beneath notice. All thepreaching in the world will never make sensible peo-

ple believe that a goose is a swan the bigger he isthe more of a goose he is. Buffoonery is not wit anymore than hypocrisy is honesty, but both might passunquestioned for the genuine article were not thesterling value of the coin too vociferously insistedupon.

In some of his late articles, the editor of the Pol-ynesian seems to have allowed his zeal in behalf ofsome members of our well meaning little- - govern-ment" to outstrip his discretion, and good sense,

lias this case been frankly and fully laid beforethe public? Most people of our Island world, un-

connected with the Government Journal, who takeany interest in the matter, think that it has not, andInilicve that the honorable gentleman, the Minister atWar, is somewhat interested in the sales madeby the ostensible proprietor of the lloyal Hotel. Ifthat is not the case, why are all spirits deliveredfrom the Custom House for consumption at the hotel,or disposed of by its proprietor, delivered only to theorder of that self-devot- ed victim to the exigencies ofthe State ?

While on the topic of Hotels and high officials, theenquiry might be hazarded: YVhat are the honorablegentleman's relations with another establishment ofthe same description further up town ?

It may be' wrong to draw attention to the businessaffairs of so mighty a functionary as the Minister, butthen it certainly decs not add to the respectability ofthe government that some cf its members should bedabbling in business with the public houses of theplace, and it is well to remind those who choose toconvert their dwelling into a powder magazine to bevery careful how they scatter firebrands.

Walker's Position in Nicaragua. Gen. Walkerhad concentrated nearly his entire force at Granada,in anticipation of an attack by the forces of Guate-mala and the insurgents of Nicaragua, under Patri-cio Ttivasjlate President of the Republic. About twoweeks before the departure of the steamer from SanJuan, Walker's forces evac uatedMasaya, about fif-

teen miles from Granada. This town had been forti-fied, and its sudden abandonment caused considerablesurprise among the troops." It is said to be a ruse onWalker's part, to induce the enemy to march directlyto Granada, where Walker was prepared to meet him.The army received an accession of nearly two hun-dred men by the Texas. A decree had been issuedimpressing into active service every white male citizenresident within the State. A company had also ar-rived from California, so that the entire fightingforce amounted to about 1C00 men ; no natives beingamong that number. The rainy season being aboutover, it was confidently believed that the destiny ofthe Kepublic would be decided by a battle to takeplace in the vicinity of Granada, about the middle ofthis month. . A consignment- - of Minnie lines, someG000 rifle cartridges, and a large number of shells andmortars, arrived at Granada on the 5th instant.This placed Walker in a position to resist all attemptsto disturb his government. Reinforcements were expected. Alia.

Deaths of British Notables. The English newspapers announce the deaths of several persons moreor less connected with literature and art, whose namesare well known in the United States. Foremost, atthe advanced age of 80, is Admiral Sir John Ross, thecommander of the first Polar Expedition of the present century. This was in 1818. He went on a second expedition in 1827, at the expense of Mr. Felix.Dooth, a distiller in London, and returned in October,1833, having discovered the territory now calledBoothia Felix, as well as the North Magnetic Pole.In 1850 he went out in a small vessel of J0 tons, athis own expense, in quest of Sir John Franklin. Hewas author of Accounts of his Exploration Travels,and of a Life of Lord de Saumarez yand other professional works.

Sir Richard Westmacott, sculptor, oldest memberof the Royal Academy of England, has also died, atthe age of 81. He is best known by his publicstatues.

Mr. William Yarrett, author of The History ofBritish Fishes and The History of British Birds,has died, aged 72. Scarcely any English writer hascontributed so much to the popularization of NaturalHistory.

Last in this death roll, is Gilbert Abbott-a-Hecke- tt,

aged 45 ; he was essentially a humorist, as his GoniicHistories of England and Rome, and his ComicBlackstone, have proved.

Mexican R. R. to the Pacific. Col. Albert C.Ramsey has been authorised by the Mexican Govern-ment to form a company, and take charge of theworks pf a railroad from the Gulf of Mexico to thePacific, at Acapulco. The privileges granted to thisroad are greater than any ever before given in Mexico or Central America. All materials for the roadare to be admitted free of duties. All mails, merchandise, and other articles of transit, are also free ;and ships and steamers not to pay tunnage duties orport charges. The Government guarantees six percent, on all moneys expended until the road becomesproductive, and receives only as compensation for theconcession the right to carry the Mexican mails andtroops at half price. The company are to regulatethe rates of freight and passage.

The gold fields of Australia are yielding at the rateof nearly $100,000,000 per annum, and the produceof the first three months of 1856 is nearly doublethat oi the corresponding three montns oi looo,being close upon 700,000 ounces.

Some idea of the foray that is made upon the can-ine race in New York during the dog-da- ys may begathered from the fact that during the past twomonths in which a premium has been set upon theunmuzzled curs which abound in the streets, therehave been as many as four thousand two hundredanimals seized and taken to the doz pound, and ofthese four hundred were reclaimed by their owners,and the remainder fell victims to that edict whichconsigns them to death,

Rcssia. There are in the Russian empire 245,177,- -248 acres of land in forests of immense value. Russiais one of the best wooded countries in the world. Thenumber of horses in Russia exceeds by 7,000,000 thetotal nniuber in France, Austria, Prussia, the UnitedKingdom, and the United States. The number ofcattle in the Russian empire exceeds by nearly 6,-000,- 000

the total number in France, Austria, andPrussia, and their value is great. Minerals of themost valuable and useful kinds abound in Russia.

Double Dealing. In Cincinnati, lately, a ladywas detected in pocketing a package of gloves in astore. When charged with the theft, she burst intotears and tendered a $20 bill inpayment. The merchant took but five dollars and gave her back thechange. On counting the cash at night, that $20 billwas found to be a counterfeit.

To persons mailina Letters for California and the Territories of Washington and Oregon . rThousands of letters sentto the Pacific coast become dead letters. To remedy this evilthe Post Office Department, under the authority of Congress, hasadopted as an auxiliary to its operations the following plan forsimultaneously publishing at each and every post omce in thePacific region, in a list called 44 Pacihc Mail List," the names ofpersons to whom letters have leen sent by mail to post offices inCalifornia and the Territories of Washington and Oregon. Bythis system, a letter may be stmt to any post office in the Pacificregion for a person whose location is unknown, save the merefact that he is somewhere ia California or the Territories ofOregon and Washington ; if the letter be published in the PacficMail List, its ultimate reception by the person for whom it isintended will be rendered highly probable. To enable those whomay desire to extend tt ihcir Pacific correspondents the advan-tages thus offered, the followiay illustration is given :

Suppose it is wished to send to the fcacrameuto post office aletter for George. Wilson, who emigrated to California from Pikecounty, Missouri, but it is feared that he may have changed hislocation, and hence may ot receive the letter. In this case,direct the letter to George Wilson, (late of Pike counts, Missouri (Sacramento, California. Then, in order to publish the letter iuthe Pacific Mail List, copy the address of the letter upon apiece of paper or card, and enclose the card, together with athree-ce- nt postage stamp, m an envelope to the Pacific MailList, N. Y. Deposit the letter, as usual, iu the mail for Cali-fornia, and at the same time drop the envelope, containing thecard to publish the letter, in the man for New lork. lrmthe address on the card thus received at the New York post officethe name, George Wilson, will be entered in its appropriate placein the Pactfie Mail List, which is printed and sent by mad toeach and every postmaster in California and the Territories ofOregon and Washington, and by them posted in a conspicuousplace in their respective olhces. The list thus being distributedover the entire Pacific region, George Wilson may at once learnfrom it that a letter for him has been sent to the Sacramentopost office. No person of a similar name will receive the letter,for the address on it points out that it is intended for GeorgeWilson, late of Pike county, Missouri. Thus mast letters willbe received that would otherwise be transmitted to the dead--letter office.

The envelopes containing the advertising cards sent to thePacific Mat I List, Nw lork, pay postage like ordinary mailmatter, and must be tre-pai-d. The addresses of letters copiedon the pieces of paper or cards should be written in a plain anddistinct maimer. The three-ce- nt jwsuage stamp enclosea in theenvelopes defray the expenses of publication, and must xot bepasted to the cards, but simply enclosea with them, in the ausence of postage stamps, three-ce- nt coins may be substituted.

It is believed that this circular has been drawn up so explicitlyas to require no explanations ; but should this prove not to lethe case, postmasters will take notice that all interrogatoriesmust be addressed to the Pacific Mail List, New York, and notto the department.

The first of this series of lists will accompany the mail of May5th, and will be forwarded by each succealing mail.

Life on Ilio-Occa- n Wave."A life on the Ocean Wave!"

The man who wrote it was green ;He never has been to sea,

And a atonn he never has seen.

He never has seen a waveAs it dashed o'er the vessel's deck :

He never has seen a fire at sea,Or been floating upon a wreck.

. He never La3 been arousedFrom liis morning's gentle dose,

By the scnud of splashing waterAs it fell from U.e horrid hose.'

He never has heard a man -Scrubbing right over his head,

"With a noise sufficient to rous3From the grave the slumbering dead,

lie never has seen a fat womanGrow thinner day by day,

And leaning ever the vessel's side,Throwing herself away

And, Oh ! He has never been sea-sic- k,

And crept into bed in his coat,"While every motion increased his throes.

And his feclinjs wxt-- all in his throat.

That man may have sailed in a boad,In some iuJlie or on a souud,

But if he's been to sea and wrotePucli a sonjr, he deserves to be drown'd.

li.Y. Spirit of the Times.

' Layixg op tiik Newfoundland Telegraphic Cable.On the 9th of July, after having landed and secured

the end of the cable to the telegraphic station at CapeCay, the steamship Propontis weighed anchor aboutli o'clock and steamed across the Gulf, passing outthe cable at the rate of five or six miles per hour,reaching Aspy Bay, Cape North, (the other terminus)soon after 5 o'clock the next morning, occupying 15A

hours, without the slightest injury to the cable, orkink or bend of any kind.

The cable was coiled in the hold with the greatestcare, in such manner that each succesive layer was runout from the center to the circumference. It was notnecessary to stop the engine for a moment. As thecable passed from the coil, it moved through a kindof inverted cast iron tunnel, and over two cast irondrums, each about nine feet in diameter, weighing aton and a half each, and over a pully at the stern ofthe ship. A register i tached to the drum showedthe exact length of cable paid out, being regulatedlike a jasmotcr one dial showing the fathoms, an-otl- ier

the rjiles. Brakes were constantly brought tobear on tae drums, ho that the cable entered the waterstraight, and a sufficient strain was kept upon it tolay it smoothly on the bottom.

While it was being laid in the deepest portions ofthe Gulf, some 150 or 2iX) fathoms, the cable descendedat an angle of about 23 degrees, showing that itsgreat weight was more than sufficient to counter-balance the forward movement of the vessel. Com-

munication Avas kept up constantly bewteen the shipand the shore, while the cable was being laid. Afterarriving at Cape North, and while the cables werebeing secured on shore a temporary telegraph stationwas fitted up under a tent, and electric communica-tion fully established between the two shores of theGulf-- a distance of eighty-fiv-e miles. This gratifyingresult was announced by the firing of guns from thePropontis, and elicited the hearty cheers of all in at-

tendance. The electric fluid had found its way amongmermaids of the deep with the same facility as whenpassing between poles in the open atmosphere. Themanufacturers of the wire were responsible for itssafefy until laid in its bed, and for ten days subse-quent.

On the lGth of June, another cable was laid bythe same company, across the Straits of Northumber-land from Cape Tormentinc, N. B., to Cape Traverse,Prince Edward's Island, a distance of thirteen miles,with the same success ; and communication is nowcomplete between Princo Edward's Island and theUnited States. This last cable is only a matter oflocal convenience, the former constitutes an impor-tant link in the great enterprise of connecting NewYork with London. The company expects to have thewhole line complete to St. John's, N. F., in Septembernext ; all that is now wanting being the completionf a portion of the overland line in Cape Breton and

Newfoundland.In case of a steamer calling at St. John's, the news

could be received here two or three days sooner thanby those that stop at Halifax.

The cable laid by the Propontis is of the same de-

scription with that previously lost, except that theportion designed for the deepest water was somewhatlighter and had but one conductor, composed of sevencopper wires, whereas the former had three insulatedwires. Journal of Con.

CAPT. ROKEItT 'BROWN'SWHALING GUN, PATENT BOMB LANCES

AND GUN HARPOONS.AFTER SEVERAL TEARS LABOR AND

upon whales, on the whaling ground, withhis apparatus, combined with the advantages of being a practicalwhaleman, the Patentee has been enabled to obtain an instru-ment in form of a Bomb Lance, wliich for utility and effective-ness cannot be excelled.

The attention of Agents and Officers of whale-shi- ps is calledto the following testimonials.

San Francisco, January 10, 1856.Capt. R. Brows Sir . I take this opportunity to inform

you that we used those Bomb Lances we bought of you, andfound them to be of great benefit in. capturing whales amongstthe ice.

The first whale that we used the Bomb Lance on was killedin the following manner t The boat went alongside of the whaleand the boat-steer- er fired a Emnb into him and then fastened tohim with a gig iron : the Bomb was heard to explode, and thewhale did not blow after the .Bomb exploded. The above-mention- ed

whale was in the iee, aud it is our opinion that we shouldnot have got that whale and many others that we did get, if it'had not been for your Bomb Lances, aud we fully mmmendthem to the attention of those fitting out whale ships.

Respectfully yours, 1

Thomas Wall, Master bark George.Honolclc, March 17, 1856.

Capt. Robert Browx My dear Sir: I used your BombLances in taking a whal , north, the past season, which made250 bbls. of oil. We never could have taken him without saidLances, as our boats could net get near enough to use the com-mon hand lance. ,

Yours Respectfully,G. L. Cox, Master whale-shi- p Magnolia.

IIoxOLCxr, March 15, 1S56.Capt. Robert Brow Dear Sir t I take this opportunity

to inform you that I used your Bombs on the voyage in the shipHerald, and found them effective in taking whales, and wouldrecommend them to all whalemen, and especially around the ice.I also used the harpoon and got most of the whales by yourGuns and apparatus.

Yours Respectfully, " -

FIRE PROOF ROOFS.WARREN'S FIRE AND WATER PROOF

V v ' Roof3 have established for ; themselves in New Englandand the Canadas a reputation second to none. They have beenmuch longer in use in the Middle and Western States, and testi-monials from various parts of the Union, admit their superiorityover all other roofs.

They have been used upon Dwelling Houses of the first class,Ware Houses, Railroad Depots, and Manufacturies, and havebeen pronounced by Architects, Builders and others who havea knowledge of their merits, to be of greater durability, and tobe possessed of fire and water resisting properties, to an extentbeyond that of any Roof now in use.

These Roofs require an inclination of only one inch to the foot.They can be used for a promenade, and for drying purposes ;and are made available in case otjire to adjoining buildings.

The materials of which these Roofs are composed, are notaffected by changes of temperature.

The cost is less than that of any other Fire Proof Roof now Inuse, and even that of a shingled Roof. These Roofs are notaffected by the jar of machinery ; and in case ofinjury, no Roofis-- so easily and quickly repaired.

The Corporation of the City of Montreal, Canada, have by aspecial By-La- w, made an exception in favor ol' Warren Roofs,to the Law prohibiting the erection of buildings in the City.And numerous other testimonials from Builders, Insurance Oiti-cer- s,

Railroad Corporations and others, which attest the supe-riority of this Roofing over all others for cheapness, efficiency,and durability combined, may be seen at the Counting Room ofC. BREWER 2d. For sale by

Affairs Ix Kansas. The last-dat- es from Law-rence are to September 15th.

Li vtrexce,-- K. T.f Sept. 15.Tvrentj-eig- ht hundred men, mostly Missouriana,

reached Franklin yestefd&y, destined to attack Law-

rence. Owing to our reliance upon Gov. Geary some-

what for protection our force is mostly in the coun-

try. About five hundred remain, preparing to fightin our fortifications.

Our advance guards came into collision last night,and three of the enemy's men are reported killednone of ours injured.

Just then orders came from the Governor, forbid-

ding tho approach of the Pro-Slave- ry forces. Thoythen fell back and camped at Franklin.

Four hundred United States troops arrived herelast night for protection.

This morning the Governor in person disbanded theRuffians under General Reed,- - member elect to thenext Missouri Legislature. There are no longerTerritorial militia. Many of them eworo they willhave blood in spite of the Governor.

ChIka. Fall'of a Pagoda. Saturated or under-mined by the late continued rains, an ancient Pagodawithin the city of Canton has succumbed to the ele-

mental strife of fourteen centuries. It is now, a heapof ruins, amongst them being the crushed body of aBuddhist Priest. Most direful are tho prognostica-tions of the superstitious on the occurrence of thiscatastrophe ; and nothing less than the early down-fall of the Manchou dynasty is anticipated, even bythose who before had some doubts about it.

The Rebellion. One can make neither head not'tail of the news from the different se:ts of war. Nowit is the Rebels, and now it is the Imperialists, whoarc slaughtering tens of thousands of their enemies.

George Peabody at the East. An interestingcorrespondence as to a public enterainracnt has takeuplace between a committee of New York merchantsand men of letters and the well known George Pea-bod- y,

the American banker in London. Mr. Peabodydeclines all invitations to public dinners, except theone tendered by his fellow citizens of Danvers, Mass.,the place of his ba th, lie says m his answer to tuoNew York invitation :

In returning to my nativd land after an absence oftwenty years, I had several objects in view. 1 wished once more to sec the land of ray birth and earlyyouth, and the surviving members of my tamily :once more to greet my , friends in every part of thocountry ; and to see and know the new generationsthat have come up since I left, and who are to betheir successors. I also desired to visit every sectionof the Union, and to witness with my own eyes theevidences at home of the prosperity of which r haveseen abundant proofs abroad. The twenty years thathave clasped since my last visit are the most important twenty years m the commercial history oi Amen- -ca. mice lwp van vvmKie, i am aimosi anuaui-- u utthe wonderful changes that already meet my eyes.Vlthough, as you well know, I have not slumbered

meanwhile in a Sleep Hollow, I stand amazed at thoenergy and activity which characterize your city. Itis my wish and purpose to remain in the country longenough to understand these changes and their causes.

On mature reflection, gentlemen, J think that if Iaccept the hospitalities which have been tendered tome by yourselves, and by my friends in Baltimore,Philadelphia, Boston and other cities, I shall veryseriously interfere with the objects of my visit. Ihave therefore, been obliged to come to the conclusionto refuse all invitations to dinner with the single ex-

ception of my native town Danvers, in Massachusetts.New British Minister to the United States.

We stated, a few days ago, the probability that tho 'Hon. Mr. Villicrs would be the next ambassador fromGreat Britain to the United States. Vre believe thereis now no doubt that such will be the case. "We havereason to know that Mr. Villicrs has accepted thoappointment. The Hon. Charles Pclham Villiersthough said to be of a very indolent nature, is a manof remarkable ability, strong intelligence and mostcourtly grace and gentleness of manner. Except thathe is careless in dress, he bears a singular resem-blance to his brother, Lord Clarendon, having hispeculiar liquid blue eye and expression of languidcourtliness. Like Mr. Crampton he is a bachelor. Bo-fo- re

receiving his present office of Judge Advocate,he was an able debater and an active committee manin the House of Commons. His annual motions ontho corn laws first wakened that public opinion inEngland which swept them down, and in the agita-tion and advocacy of tho b illot he has always takenan eager part. Since his appointment lie has beendoomed to the lucrative taciturnity of the Treasurybench, but his views have always been of a breadthof freedom approaching, if not touohing, republican-ism.

France. Rumors arc afloat that an cxchanga.ofcolonies is being negotiated between France and Eng-land. France to give up her factories on the main-land of India, in exchange for tho island of Mauri-tius.

It is also reported that France wishc3 to purchasefrom Denmark a strip of the coast of Iceland, for fish-ing stations. It is further reported, that the State ofAlgeria demands a large addition to the troops sta-tioned there. A division of boats is to be sent to Sen-egal.

Citt of Mexico, September 16th, 13o6.The probability is wc are going to have a brush

with England, or rather it is now quite probable thatEngland is going to give Mexico a drubbing. Eng-land says she is disgusted with treating Mexico like acivilized nation after resorting to every expedient toget along with her as such, and as she has been una-ble to come to any other conclusion, by a close ex-amination and comparison of the public acts of thocountry, than that Mexico deserves the same treat-ment as would be bestowed on a band of bandits, shelias determined to administer the dose. Lord Clar-endon has ordered and the British Charge d'Affaireshere has hauled down his sign and flag aud closed tholegation, and the Consul has closed his offices. Thocause of this decisive step has a long history. First,the English Convention debt ; secondly, the non-paym- ent

of the interest of tho London loan ; thirdly,various acts of bad faith in obtainiii?: money fromEnglish capitalists for mining purposes and the re-fusal of Mexico to grant redress ; and fourthly audculminatingly, the affair of Messrs. Barron, Forbes& Co., in Topic. The last case has brought Englandto the sticking point, and some time since she madocertain demands of the Mexican Government in rela-tion to it. The Mexican Government, true to thocharacter derived from its Spanish ancesters, firsttreated the demand lightly, the Charge threatened toask his passports when the government equivocated.Just at this time, instructions were received from the'English Government that if the demands ' were nutacceded to in such and such a manner, to suspend re-lations, and in pursuance with orders relations aresuspended.

Orders were sent to Admiral Bruce some timesince, to make himself convenient at Some point onthe Pacific either San Francisco or Panama, and' W3are in suspense here to hear of his whereabouts. ThoE imc d iy the legation closel, on the 2d of September,advices' left here for the squadron in the Gulf of Mex-ico, and by this time the Admiral has his- - advices.He is under direct orders from the government, andwe are watching with interest to see if he is to com-mence the blockade of Vera Cruz immediately. Myoxinion is his orders are not to do so until the nextadvices from England.

In the mean time the Government ofMexico is goingto send Gen. Almonte to England, to sec if that gen-tleman cannot settle the matter quietly ; but it seemsquite certain that he will not be received under thecircumstances, ne is, however, the best man thatcould have been selected for the mission, and if Mex-ico can be saved, he. will undoubtedly do it.

Do you think so VI know that he will ; but I will make one of the

party, stop here until alternoon, and then I'll rideover with you. In the meantime I will get my rifleu una--r jiuu bciiu n over to the Spaniard s house."

I readily consented to this plan, and spent anSacawe uuernocn m listening to his interesting

stones ot adventures. Before dark we were at theSpaniard s house, and made all preparations for aneany start on tne next day. At an early hour weretired to rest after dispatching a servant to hire twolarge oanquos lor the transportation of ourselves andprovisions to a small lake up the river."

"No, I think not," replied the Spaniard, after aoment's hesitation; "but lam in hopes to do so

belore we return.""Humph!" grunted Charley, raising a cup of

Don Arturo startled us. We turned towards him,and saw he was pointing with a trembling handtowards half-a-doz-en black objects which were slowlyswimming towards us, and were not more than thirtyyards distant.

' By all the saints in the calender, but we are infor it," Allen said, throwing a charge of powder intohis rifle, and ramming down a ball with haste.

What is the matter ?" I inquired." Don't ask questions, but fire at the nearest one,

Hit him in the eye, if you can."I did not wait for further instructions, but took

deliberate aim, and had the satisfaction ofseeing themonster leap high out of the water, and then sinkfrom view.

Well done," Charley cried, " load again as soonas possible. We must tight our way to. shore, forevery inch of ground will be disputed."

1 glanced towards the Don as I loaded, and sawthat he was seated on the raft, his rifle lying by hisside, and his eyes fixed upon the approaching alligators with a strong expression of fear upon his face.The rowers also ceased their labor, and were ncarlvas pallid as their master. Charley shouted outsome- -inuig, speaking to the natives m their own lanfruare.which they understand much better than they doSpanish. They at once obeyed his order, graspinguieir oars vmiii energy, and dashing them into thewater, tney urged the light raft along at a rapidrate.

It appeared as though each discharge of our riflesbrought fresh alligators to the surface, for I saw noless tnan a dozen with their heads out of the water,waicumg our movements with great interest, andgradually drawing nearer, as if they wished to re--eugj iiiemseives tor the injury inflicted upon their

I had hardly time to follow his example when theraft was struck a violent blow, and shook as thoughevery bamboo in it would break.

They either did not understand Charley's warnings or were too anxious to reachtie sllore to r;,7 any attention to it, fur they still pad--uicu uu- -w uen suddenly one ot them lost his balance,and, with a wild yell fell headlong into the water.

In an instant every alligator disappeared beneaththe surface, and only a few bubbles which slowly rosetold of the struggle that was going on beneath.

Address, by letter or personally, DR. BOURNE, WaterPhysician, Sansome Street, opposite St. Nicholas Hotel, SanFrancisco, importer into this State of the FIUST and ONLYapparatus for giving these delightful and beneficial Electro- -Chemical Baths, and whose experience in their use warrantsin speaking of them in the terms he employs. They requirecaution in administering them, and Dr. Bourne never entruststhat duty to others, thus avoiding all danger.

O So many lying and forged certificates, and TRETEeditorial recommendations are published, that those truthfulstatements of facts which Dr. Bourne could offer, are withheld,rather than any should suxpose they were merely " got up."

JIT Consultations without char-re- . and charces very moderatefor the benefits conferred.
