He ia now employed iu a great enterprise

building, at a cost of about 4,W0,IHX), au:all town in the immediate vicinity of New

Vjrfc, which afford to clerks and others of emailleans comfortable suburban residences at moder-ate rents. Within Sew York he is rearing aniiiimense pile, destined to afford cheap hxlgingaend adequate protection to the hard worked andpoorly paid elates of scainstresftcs and other likelemafe workers. Owing everything to New York,ami unblessed with children, it is understood tobe Mr. Stewart's intention and desire to repayLin debt to the city by wise and patriotic devotionof his wealth to the promotion of the welfare ofits poor and laborious citizens. And so the as-Tiri- ng

New Yorker sees with pride among thearistocrats this newly enriched dry goods

merchant, whose origin was the humblest, whosewealth is of to-da- y, whose influence, politicallyand socially, i.-- paramount ; he hears with satis-faction of Mr. Stewart 'b marble palace, of his gal-

lery of pictures, of the respect paid to his wife byprinces, of the oilers made to him of the highestutSi-e- s of the State, of his humble beginnings,great achievement and noble objects.

This is the type of aristocracy " which NewY rk abundantly presents. Its Marquis of West-Diiii.4t- er

is the son of a journeymen furrier, whoeiuirated to tlte shores of New York and acquiringa! rtune in the fur business, and the shrewdnessml wisdom to forsee that the growth of NewV rk would make investment in real estate theciwt certain ofall ejaculations, and so becamethe purchaser of farm lands and wastes fifty yearsa' at less for the acre than they now sell by thej ird. lie left the trace of his sense of indebted-ri.- 't

to the city by the foundation of the AstorU'irary, named after him ; and bis son and grand- -

following rigidly the precept and example oftU founder of the family, are now the type of

U: is accepted in New York as the highest class"f aristocrat. With an immediate wealth inLihlod property which can hardly be estimated,mi l which cannot probably be equalled by thepxMensiona of any other proprietors in the world.Had with a sure prospective increase which out-runs calculation, the grandsons of Jacob Astorare as rigidly attentive to the management oftheir affairs, as carefully considerate of all plansI t the development ot the resources of their pos-sctttio- ua,

and as personally solicitous for the im-provement of the general aspects of the city aaany small householder or land agent can be, publicinterests in no way suffer from the accumulationof property in their bands. They do nut thinkthemselves privileged to be idle. They find theirpleasure in accepting and vigorously fulfillingtfie responsibilities of wealth; they 'are hard-working, well --educated, public-spirite-d, upright,unostentatious gentlemen ; and so they fulfill theAmerican ideal of aristocracy. Of wealth unas-ciat- ed

with education, ill-gott- en or mysteriouslyamassed of triumphant rascality well guided ofcuameless and success I ul roguery mazing wun

finery, holding court in public places,laving its retinue of literary heralds, its train ofju liuial abetore, its crowd of political accomplices

tiiere are here more striking examples than canwell conceived by the foreigner, or expressod

wir.'iout apparent exaggeration. Station hasnothing of hereditary or fixed, political office im-plies discredit rather than honor, judicial office isvery frequently the by-wo- rd of the market-plac- e,

and the judge's mantle the mere cloak of corrup-tion which it covers without pretending to con-ceal. Even ia the learned professions the avenuesto die ti action have not always been of the mosthonorable and regular character, and the safe-guards for education and character are only begin-ning to be satisfactorily and completely organized..The cooremtional tests belonging to the society ofthe capital of Europe do not, therefore, existhere. Men claim their admission into society notfor what they bare been or may be, from the as-sociations connected with an historic name, fromthe acknowledged guarantees belonging or trans-mitted by connection with great names old fami-lies, public duties and professional pursuits ;their claim is of to-d- ay it regards neither thefuture nor the past.

Conaula, like otb-- r men, are not infalirble, indeed there la yery

little doobt that toe consular rate for oil laat year waa fixed loohigh, aa much it ia aaid aa 20 to 25 per rent. ; atiU the men areabipped and the owners undertake to pay off their men at theconsular rates, and bat year the men were paid offal the high

ratea fixed without a question. - ft appears to as that a grea

and wa are anrry for it, that the rate aa fixed this year f .33cents per gallon is really not far from the price which Arctf.oil may be fairly expected to nett, after deduct ingau toeperrssarv chanea.

At S o'clock sU'p struck a large cake of ice on tbe portbow ; thip under main topsail, double rctfod fore and mizzen top--

iu l.h fore staysail and main soencer : started both Dunns 'immediately and found the water gaining rapidty on thePumps ; made all sail and run the ship towards tbe land.I' poo examination found the two lower breast hooks broken off, J

also several timbers, and water coming in on both aides of the j

(cat aa though the wood ends were started. At 8 o'clock j

came to anchor in two and a half suborns of water. Set thecolors luion down lor assistance. At uus una me snip nailsix feet of water in her hold ; the ship resting lightly in I he

crews of the following ships who sent their boats to our as-sistance i Arctic, Henrg Taber, Hiltn Siuttc, Onward,Tridtnt, Nacf anil fr"m Rotck. After tbe arrival of theboats from the other ships we commenced breaking oat thefore bold, and bailing at sll three Batches, besides) keepingpumps at work. Hhip was anchored about two miles sowta-we- st

other ships, try trig to free lha ship; continued bailing aad 'ispumping until 9 PM, when, finding the water gaining tasterthan ever, (the water at this lime being over the second tier ofcasks.) concluded it waa impossible lo save her. 8hip restingon her starboard side ; cut away the mainmast, which in fall-ing, carried away the Biases topmast. At 10 o'clock ship waasold at aocUou for one hundred and fifty dollars. Had onboard at the lime of her loss 6u0 barrels oil and 3,000 poundwhale bone. After abandoning the ship went en board theJttpkin by invitation of Capt Cogan, who kindly gave uphis owa ran to my wile and family, and did ail la his powerto make us comfortable.

THE PACIFICteitmmcwial Slbfecriiscr.

SATURDAY. NOVEMBER 5.

Tlic Commercial Xlorlzon nndFuture of XIoiiolulii.

In a recent number we gave the distances fromHonolulu to the principal ports of the Pacific,and showed how centrally this port is situatedwith regard to the main borders of this ocean,and how lines drawn to the main ports radiatefrom this centre like the spokes of a wheel.

The touching at this port during the last yearor two of a number of vessels from, all parts ofthe Pacific Ocean, on their voyage to variousplaces, shows that our central position in tbeNorth Pacific and our good harbor are not im-

aginary advantages, but are of real practicalbenefit to us, and that as a port of call Honolulumust become more frequented as the populationand comperce of the surrounding countries in- -crease. We seem to be in the way Tor sailingvcsseld from San Francisco and Puget Sound toChina, from Australia, New Zealand and Tahitito San Francisco, from China to Callao, and fromPuget Sound to Valjaraiso. "We pick up dis-

abled vessels, also on their way from San Fran-cisco and Mexico to the United States and Europe.Then Honolulu id the port of call for quite a fleetof guano vessels ; and last, though not least, it isthe rendezvous of our old frionds the NorthPacific whaling fleet. These vessels, added to theregular traders engaged in supplying our wants,and carrying away our produce, must make thisport one of yearly increasing importance.

It is hardly necessary to urge the necessity ofdoing; all in our power to take advantage of. thiscentral position, and to improve our oppor-tunities ; but it may not be out of place if weoCer a few suggestions for improvements con-

nected with our port and its commerce, which, ifnot to be immediately carried out, at least maybe worthy of an early consideration.

It is pretty evident that notwithstanding thenew wharves which have been built, we are get-ting cramped for wharf room, the extension ofthe wharves and filling up the reef to Fisher-man's Point seems to be required at once, whichimprovement will no doubt include a new jettyfor the ocean steamers, with more room for stow-

ing coal. The whaleships want more room alsofor their oil.. A narrow gauge railway track, with the neces-

sary turn outs," sidings, 4c, for horse carsand wagons might, with advantage, be made ailround tbe wharves from one end to the other, torfrf TiT rwv isv? a I aAm AflofAwe r fmAiMn v.nwi acJ "UUJ '"""S" fc'""o "--68 and vice versa ; and also to aid in transhippingpooJd from one foreign vpsspI lO another WpWould Suggest also that this tramway be made,,through the Point property, by Act of Par--liament, if necessary. This water frontage wantsopening up to the public, and no doubt the im-

provement would, at the same time, be money inthe pockets of the owners.

We have often heard shipmasters complain ofthe price of ballast here. This could be remediedby a short railway' to some location where stone

plentiful, and connecting it with the trackround tbe . wharves. Cheap ballast means somuch off our inward freights, which is an impor-tant item on heavy and bulky goods. Cheapnessis tbe soul of commercial prosperity. We wantto get everything cheap, to grow our sugarcheaply and to make it cheaply, and so competewith other countries. Wo want to supply theships which visit us cheaply, and to live cheaplyourselves. We may say also that we have beardtbe price of wuter complained of. It docs notalways pay to get too much from our customers.

It has been suggested that a large fire-pro- of

stone or brick building should be erected on theEsplanade, where planters can, if they choose,run ia their sugars on arrival (by the tramway)and get an advance on. them if desired, andwhere they may keep them at a low rent for saleor for an improvement in the neighboring mar-

kets. Besides, it would be an advantage, nowthat we have new markets opened up, to keepsome stock of sugars here to supply them as re-

quired. Planters would, we think, find that theprices given would pay for a little delay, and itwould also assist the idea, which has often beenbroached, of the advantage planters would deriveif they sold more of their sugar here, instead ofshipping it. We know that sugar, and probablyother produce, is often sent on board any shipthat is laid on, because the owners or agentshave nowhere else to put it. Commissions onthe sale of produce in Honolulu, we may remark,seem too bigb, unless where heavy advances have

be made. Planters often want to sell andmerchants to buy, but tbe desire of both is frus-

trated, and to the loss of both for want of a bet-

ter system.Our port charges and Custom Houee regula-

tions are generally reasonable and accommodating.Custom House storage, however, seems much toohigh, especially on liquors and ship's stores.Tbe efTeet is often to force into consumption,

at least to become duty paid, goods whichotherwise might be left in the Custom House,and ultimately shipped off with advantage.Valparaiso was wide awake when it allowedCustom House storage six months free. It may

asssss i intn the business, but RUTAL nM" -- .-

be eaid, the rate or fitomge doee not pay interest

of money on the'buildings, but with our position

in the Pacific and our prospect, we should bid

high to become to a certain extent, a depot for

the countries around us, and for the tshipa which

Yieit us. It is sometimes cheaper to pay the

duties than leave goods in bond. This should

not be. Our duty free list might be increased to

advantage on tbe same principle, that the dutywas taken off copper for ship's bottoms. Im-

ported articee for ship's use almost exclusively,

may just as well be free as not. They are eitherfor foreign ships or for Hawaiian ships. If for

foreign vessels, the goods are left in bond and no

duty paid on exporting them, whilst if for Ha-

waiian vessel or coasters, these should be allowed

the same advantage as foreign ships, of getting

their supplies duty free. The effect then oflevying a duty on their import, is not revenue,

but it merely forces goods to be kept in tbe

Custom House stores at great expense and incon-

venience to all concerned.A liberal drawback system also, such as they

have in all the Australian Colonies, would

be a most valuable assistance to us. The revenue

would gain by it, as we should often export un-

suitable stuff and replace it by larger values of

more desirable articles. The amount apparently

lost by such judicious and liberal regulations is

often made up a hundred fold by the increase

of commerce and shipping, from the facilities! thus afforded. It seems to be difficult to make

whaling pay now even with good catches. Let

us bold out every inducement to them by cheap-

ening everything they require, and by givingthem facilities. We may thus help the businessand keep tbe lion's share-o- f it, in the Pacific

Ocean at any rate. By this course of cheapen-

ing, we, at the same time, assist our planterswe attract commerce and shipping, and add to

the general wealth and prosperity. Commerce

has been attly compared to matter, which gravi-

tates to the largest mass. A6 matter attractsmatter, so does commerce attract commerce. Weare, it is true, a small body situated in thecentre of, or surrounded by, great masses. Buttbe more commerce we draw from the surround-

ing countries the greater power we obtain toattract more.

I'lio Lato dnperor.In looking over foreign files, we discover a dis-

position to vilify Napoleon and his antecedents ini such a way as would havo been regarded alto-- I

gether outre a few months ago. For the largerpart of human nature, this is exceedingly natural.When a man is down, or on the inclined planedescending, a friendly kick to help hiui down atan accelerated pace is common. We are by nomeans the apologist or Napoleon, if, in our faroff isles, we could possibly have the vanity to

j think it could do him any good. But what wemean to say is, that it is not always a trait of amagnanimous mind to triumph over fallen great--

j ncss, even if it should be coupled with manyj failings, and we have no doubt that many that: are now his bold detractors would have been

foremost among admirers of his profound geniusi and brilliant valor, had he been successful in hisi

unfoi tunate war with Prussia. Wo do not bc--j

lieve in blindly idolizing everything and every-- ;body that succeeds, nor in abusing everything

J and everybody that fails, or, in other words,j that because a person happens to-d- ay to be atthe highest spoke of Fortune's wheel, to fall

j down and worship him ; and becausej in the wheel's revolution he brings up at the bot

tom of it, to turn suddenly round and dendohim. Success, like charity in this world, coversa multitudo of faults, and failure all of a suddendiscloses any quantity of defects, that no onepossibly could have seen before.

Napoleon, to our miud, has simply been an in-

strument in the omnipotent hand of Providenceto work out his mission. Wc cannot doubt butthat much, if not all of the misery, now bcinr

i inflicted on Fiance, might have been averted badhe exercised his influence to that end. Here, hehas been guilty of not only a grave error, but ofa very great deed of wickedness. It may be thaeaccording to the idea of the poet, from seemingevil, good is to be educed. It seems hard thatthe good could not have been accomplished with-out Buch awful sacrifice ; however, we have toaccept the situation as it is. That Napoleon hasdone much for France is not to be disputed,and his triumphs of peace would have far outshone any Prussian victories lie might have

; gained.j Emperor as he was, he was like the re6t of up,

of the earth, earthly. He delighted in pompous! display; he, to himself, was the great centre toj which the rays of admiration were to converge: and add new and intense lustro to the Napoleonicj dynasty. Only a short time ago he was the cn- -j

tertaincr of sovereigns. Now, in almost thetwinkling of an eye, stripped of that falsegrandeur. But, such is life ; " bright to-da- y,

; dark w. He enjoys no exemption fromj the universal lot. As his illustrious uncle said,: it is only a step from the sublime to the ridiculous.

We subjoin a few saws " and " sayings "j that lately fell in our way : Poor Napoleon ! "exclaims everybody. Yet he is said to have sent

j to England vast 6ums of money. The Bos!xnTranscript suggests " Mexico as the future resi- -j

dence of Napoleon." Heading to a telegraphic'dispatch : " The movements of Mr. Napoleonand family." A western paper annihilates Napo-

leon by calling him " the drugged somnambulistof a crumbling; dream." But this is the best:J

The deserted rooms of the Emperor were foundstrewn with bottles of tonic, of which he is saidto have stood greatly in need. He abandoned hisiron tonic for steel and lead applications thatwere entirely Teu-tonic- ." ,

Tobacco. This is a weed much reviled ever 6incethe days of the famous edicts, pronounced against itby His Majesty James First of England, especiallyby those who do not or cannot use it. "The excessiveuse of it is admitted to be a grievous evil to thehuman, constitution ; but moderately, if it can bedetermined where the happy midium lies, its use hasbeen advocated as a quieter of the nerves, an anti-dote for obesity, &c, and the after-dinn- er Havanahas been regarded by some as a helper of digestion.Bat we are not writing either a diatribe against it,or a defense for it. We are merely cognizant of thefact that it is one of the plants of the planet, andextensively used by the civilized man and the savage.We came to think of the subject, more particularlyin relation to our own islands, and its population, inone of our afternoon walks around Honolulu, andobserving, especially on Marine street, the numberof old women seated on the bare ground, whose onlystock in trade was a few bundles of native leaftobacco, and for which they found constant customersfrom day to day. Singular it is imported amongEuropeans, from tbe American Indians, that allother aborigines have in the catalogue of vices,learned its use immediately from Europeans. It waaunknown in Hawaii. When the whites were firstseen smoking, they were set down as akuas godsfor they carried fire in their mouths, and smokeissued therefrom. The white men were not thoughtto be in any danger, as was an illustrious Britonthought to be by his servant, when the ducking wasadministered to save the master from burning up.No, not at all. But the query was with us, how isIt that with tobacco of so excellent a quality as theHawaiian tobacco is allowed to be, such large quan-tities of the old Virginia have to be imported T Ofcourse, the first answer, because the Hawaiian is notcured or prepared. And then comes the next query,why is it not ? Its use, so universal, and the demand never possible to fail, it struck ns that as there j

is no trouble to raise it only needing a knowledgehow to cure it it would prove to an expert in thebusiness a source of profit, the amount of capital re-quired not being large. We are aware that someyears ago an attempt was made, by some parties on

, t. r,i.i .rr.

whether for want cf proper knowledge or experience,

or someothcrcause.it proved a failure, we are not

advised. Tbe process of curing is the most impor-

tant part of the business, and we are of opinion thatwhenTny one turns up with the requisite science, itwill prove remunerative.

Paying aiT Pricew af Oil aad Bane.

Ma. Editor Sir : Inlast week's issue of your

journal, the rates for paying off at the U. & Consul-

ate in Honolulu, for the season's catch were published,

as also the prices ruling for oil and bone, at last

advices, scarcely a month ago, at New Bedford, Inoticed a considerable discrepancy between theformer and the Utter, and as it has been matter ofsome comment amongst some of our citizens alongshore, I will, at the risk of being deemed impertinent,intrude my ideas on the subject, believing with theold Roman cvnic, that nothing concerning humanityis foreign to uie. That prices fixed by the AmericanConsul should form the basis of settlement with sea-

men, both foreign and native, shipped, as they say,for the season, from this port,' has been the customfor several years, is not to be denied ; but I hold,

that if there be anything wrong about the system, thesooner such a custom is discarded the better. Everyone knows that the mode of equipping whalers forthe annual Arctic cruise is different from what it was

in old times. Crews, shipped at home, were engagedfor the whole voyage, and I was once a passenger ina whale ship to the United States which, after a voy-

age of forty-fo- ur months, sperm whaling, returned toKew Bedford full, with tbe loss of only oue man, killedby a whale ; the whole crew returned to a man, withthat exception. Now-a-day- s, seamen are shipped anddischarged here, and we doubt not that the arrange-ment works well in many respects.

The whaling business from this port, whetherships be owned here or not, is a very importantinterest to all our community, and by the money setafloat all classes are directly or indirectly benefited

almost as good as a first rate sugar plantationwith two or three hundred coolies on it ; the latterbeing luscious and the former oleaginous. Whenthe ship makes a good catch, the business payt, theowners, of course, Captain and officers, but how isit with poor Jack ? Especially the kanaka Jack. Weask, in all fairness, if his renumeration is just, whenwe regard the wide gap between S3 cents per gallon(Consular rate) and G4 cents New Bedford, for Cali-

fornia coast oil, the Arctic being worth several centsmore. I know that a margin is contended for, tocover leakage, freight home, other charges, &c, butit strikes me the margin takes up about half of thepage. Added to this injustice, I know that shipssettle generally with stamen at a less quantity thanthey actually have on board, to say nothing ofprices charged for slops. Although I know of nolaw of the United States empowering the Consul tofix these rates, yet the principle is good enough, andconvenient to the seasoners here, if equitably carriedout. But then it is said, these men ship to be paidoff at Consular rates. However right this mayappear in the forum of conscience, to take advantageof the ignorance and improvidence of seamen,yet I opine in a Court of Adiuirality, whichpartakes largely of the nature of a Court ofEquity, and where seamen, ever since such aCourt was known, are treated as wards or as reck-less children, the Court taking especial care to guardthem against their own improvident bargains, theview t .ken might be different. Again, I heard aparty say that five dollars was just as good to a ka-naka as double the sum. I don't see it. What sort oflogic would that be to one of our merchant princes,to tell him, in settling a bill, that you would pay himhalf of it as he might foolishly spend the balance. Iopine that he wouldn't see it, just so, but, you see,oue is a gentleman and the i.ther only a commonsailor. That makes the ditlercnce. I can recollect acase tried here some years ago. where a boat-steer- er

refused to be paid off at the rate and at the quantityhailed by the ship. The order was for the oil to begauged, and if it turned out about tbe same or lessthan the ship declared, the nnu was to pay the ex-

penses, and that if it turned out more, then theship was to pay expenses. The man, under advice,went in, but no oil was broken out. Like DavyCrockett's coon, they (the captain or agent) camedown, and advanced several pegs in favor of theman.

I hive been informed by an official that the Har-bor Master, before whom, by law, voyages of Ha-waii- ans

must be settled, has declined to settle at theconsular rate. If that be true, I am glad of it, forthe statute was passed to protect Uawaiians, and as-sist them in oLt lining something near their justdues. I write mainly in the interest of the Ha-waiia-ns,

and am of opinion that they . should befairly dealt with, getting all they earn. Every oneknows that going before the mast to the northernseas is ly no means a pleasure trip, life is often im-perilled in these voyages.

It is proverbial that Uawaiians make good seamen,being docile, active, obedient and tractable on boardship, in fact, some masters prefer them to the longshore white beach combers. Their very docility ofeharacter sometimes subjects them to ill usage, whenthe masters and officers are of an arbitrary andbullying disposition ; but I am happy to know thatsuch instances are exceptional ; yet such cases havebeen proved before the courts But however theymay be treated on board, wheu the Hawaiian gets onhis native strand, his utmost rights should be pro-tected. I have often regretted that our young mencould not be employed at home yet their tastes leadthem to the sea, and it would be all right enough,perhaps, if they had the fur share of what goes toswell the fortunes of the foreign magnates, who livein con. fort and reap the advantage of their perilouslabors. It is always for the interest of employers,no matter what the business is, to deal about middlinghonest, if no more, with the employed. Monos.

A Legal " Purr." There is an advantage in

stealing ice, that is not found in the abstraction ofany other commodity. As for instance a man inKansas city was recently arrested for the larceny ofsome ice. When the trial came on, the ice could notbe identified, and so the thief got clear.

Police Court. The case of Challamel & Co.,charged with selling spirits contrary to law, washeard on Thursday morning last. We are not ac-

quainted with the facts, but learn from his counsel,Mr. II. Thompson, that an important legal point hasbeen submitted, under the statute, upon which theCourt has reserved its judgment till to-da- y.

Attempted Burglary. The store of Messrs.Bolles & Co., was entered, last Thursday night,through a back window. The noise in getting in thewindow awoke a man who sleeps over the store, who.on coming down, saw the thief" taking leave " between the back buildings. A gold pen is the onlything that has been missed.

top-galla- nt mast carried away. Capt Cooty thinks :

there was no possible chance tf her escape from totalwreck, with probable loss of all on board.

The Habbok. Early one morning this week, wewere on the Esplanade, and looking westward, we

observed on that side of the harbor, the water of adeep Lahaina red color, evidently the wash of thealluvial soil from the river. An old gentlemanremarked jat the depths of water in that part ofthe harbor had decreased a fathom in the last fewyears, and that a breakwater would be a good thingto prevent the further filling up of our snug littlehaven as Hawaii boasts of no other. But as Tootssaid, it's of no consequence.

Mud. During the late heavy rains, nothing hasbeen more patent to the humble pedestrian than thehorrible condition of our streets. Mud, mud, prettymuch aswas said of water in the" ancient mariner,"everywhere. But it is remarkable that the most fre-quented business streets are the worst, as, for exam-ple, along Queen street, Fort and many others.Why can they not be improved, as Nuuanu streethas been, as well as the road towards Palama, whichin the wettest weather are hard and dry. To effecta crossing in some places is a matter of long consid-eration, and seeing no alternative one is obliged toplunge not exactly in media t ret but in mediasmud. Well, we 'spose its nobody's business, so wehad better dry up, whether the mud does or not.

w'The " Irrepressible Hayes." Many of our oldresidents will remember the visit of Capt. Hayes atthis port many years ago, and his subsequent ex-

ploits. We observe by the late papers from NewZealand, that he has been seized at Tutuila, Navi-

gator's Islands, by the natives, and delivered overto the British Consular Agent at Apia, on the chargeof kidnapping natives of Danger Island, and takingaway property belonging to the natives of Manahiki,without paying for them. As observed by theSamoun Reporter, " We trust that fall justice willbe done to all concerned."

Since writing the above, we learn by the arrivalof the "Jlnnie, from Butaritari, that Hayes had es-

caped, and the almost equally notorious CaptainPease had appeared on the scene. Where are thoseships of war r

About Town The Hawaiian Opera.-- To appreciate native music, either vocal or instrumental,requires a correct ear and a cultivated taste, a laHawaii, much in the same way as discovering themelodies produced from a Chinese fiddle, the tastemust be a la Chinoite. In some respects it resemblesthe Italian opera, seeing, that although yon mayunderstand the language perfectly well, you are at aloss to recognize the words sung. As to Hawaiianvocal music, no one that has ever heard it canforget it. It is neither a chant, groan, grant, alto,soprano, tenor, falsetto or basso, perhaps more nearlyapproaching the latter, as a gentleman some yearsago before the Police Court, living in the neighbor-hood of a Hawaiian hula, complained of it as anuisance, especially at night. We thought at thetime he had no music in his soul. We have seen alarge crowd of Hawaiians, attracted by a native inthe street, performing the hula, more than there wouldhave been of foreigners to listen to the symphoniesof Beethoven, or the sublime compositions of vonWeber or Mozart. We were led into this musicalpassage of thought, by riding around the fish market,one of the recent rainy afternoons, on oar way home,and seeing a large concourse of natives in front ofthe door of one of the awa shops of that vicinity.As the noise of wind and rain prevented as fromhearing anything, we rode np to the crowd andinquired what was np, under the impression at first,that there was either a serious dog-fig- ht (alwaysattractive to the aborigine) or that some personhad fell down in a fit To our surprise, however, wewere told it was ukeke jews-har-p. Peering intothe shop we beheld a hunchback playing, not on ajews-har- p of foreign manufacture, but on one of thetaro patch sort a fine thread stretched across acarved stick. We feel ashamed to confess that ourmusical taste was not sufficiently developed to allow 1

us to discover the grand attraction ; but we were toowell-br- ed to make any odious criticisms, feeling thatpeople have their peculiar tastes in music as muchas in anything else. A gentleman, sometime ago,no less a personage than a son of the Marquis ofAnglesea, who, bing encamped in a tent on tbeedge of the crater Kilauea, rushed wildly out in theevening, when he first heard the Hawaiian hula,with its guttural sound, thinking that the old manwhom he found performing, seeming quite at hisease, had been, suddenly seize i with colic or someother sadden and acute disease. He returned, ashe informed as, to his tent, a wiser man on the gen-

eral subject of vocal music. -

The Damages. The losses resulting from theOctober storms and freshets have not been veryheavy. The streets of Honolulu and the roads inthe neighborhood have been considerably cut up,necessitating a good deal of work by the RoadSupervisor to put them in order again. In the Ewadistrict, several bridges have been carried away, andtraveling by vehicles has been interrupted. For anunusual thing in these islands, in fact almost unheardof lightning has struck." The chimney of Wil-

liams' sugar mill attracted the electricity to thatextent that one corner was knocked off, and thelightning descending through the roof, played vari-ous antics over the beams and rafters, finally buryingitself in the ground outside. Not far off, a flag-eta- if

was split, a horse killed, and some hogs untimelyslaughtered by the swift-wing- ed messengers ofelectricity, but we have not learned of any casualtiesto the genus homo. On Saturday night last, thelightning was peculiarly vivid ; almost a continued

pectancy about the grand lottery over the water, it isrefreshing to see incipient strides made towardsiuc uigU'iuucu civiuzaiiuu ui uiure uirureu ouiiea.Passing along Hotel street in our favorite amusementof sauntering ' around," our attention was divertedby a crowd of Ilawaiians in front of a small yellowpainted crib, wih that curiosity peculiar to ourselvesas well as the Yankee, " we wanted to kuow." Thelittle shop was filled with natives, extending out intothe street. We elbowed in, and found a gentleman,evidently of the Hebrew persuasion, stand ng behind

counter with a rotary wooden cylinder before him,and a number of articles, such as woolen shirts,handkerchiefs, silk and cotton, calico shirts, pairs of6hoe8, Dead and jet necklaces, watches, ice, all withnumbers on tags attached to them. The cylinder wasfilled with checks, correspondingly withthe figures on the articles 32 Sin- - VJZa native man par a dollar, therevolving several times, then stopped, and the

was invited to put bis hand into an aperture,which had been covered with a slide, and draw out anumber. He drew one out and became the owner ofa flannel shirt, declared to be worth two dollars anda half, much to the envious admiration of by-standers. He came down with another dollar, anddrew a cotton handkerchief; with this, he (the afore-said native) didn't seem pleased. The kind host toldhim that by putting up a half dollar, be could re-turn the cheap handkerchief and try his luck again,which doing, he got a valuable bandanna, and aidhe was satisfied for to-da- y. Another adventurertried his fortune and drew one oT the time keepers,which created quite a burst of enthusiasm. Wewere about leaving, when the gentlemanly traderremarked to us "that he lose too mooch, ifkanakas have so mooch luck," as he paid thix:pounds for that watch. We came along and lookedfor the three cabalistic balls, somewhere in tbe hori-zon ; didn't see them, but consoled ourselves withthe reflection that they, as well as many other gtthings, would all come in time, since the steam, iswere running, in order to educate the Ilawaiians tothe proper standard.

The Carandims This family of artists havebeen delighting Honolulu audiences for several evenings past, and their concerts well attended, notwith-standing the wet weather. It is truly refreshing tohave something genuine come among us, in lieu ofpseudo counterfeits, with announcements tobe able to do everything, which exists nowhere ex-cept in the play bill. . These southern haveconvinced every one that has heard them, that theymost assuredly are not of that class. Indeed, it isreally the greatest treat in the musical line that wehave enjoyed in Honolulu for many a year, and who-ever suffers them to depart without having listenedto their rapturous will have failed of a de-

light which they may not have the opportunity ofenjoying for a long time. It is said that some gen-tlemen are so fascinated that they can't keep awaya single night. We were incredulous about this atone time, but after an evening's experience, we notonly ceased to wonder, but feel ourselves fast fullinginto the san.e category. As regards the artisticexecution of this company, it is difficult, not to sayalmost invidious, to discriminate among these bril-liant gems. We are not scientific enough in singingor music to bestow any just criticism. Suffice it tosay, that they please the uninstructed and this, weconceive, is the great triumph of their efforts likethe sister art of poetry he only is the true poet whotouches the sympathetic cord of the humblest heart,while delighting as well the. most refined literarytaste. Mr. Sherwin has a fine rich tenor voice, andhis execution on Wednesday evening in the firstduett (ft Trovator?) with Madame Carandini wasadmirable. Nothing could be more side-splitti- ng

than the comical performances of Mr. Small ; andwe really felt for the " Unfortunate man." Wewant to grieve over him again. Of the sistersRosina and Fannie we say nothing we cannot.Only that in the trio of " Sweet is the breath of themorning," and again in the quartette ' Oft in thestilly the plaintive sweetness of their voicescarried us back not exactly to the days when wewent gipsying, but to the days when we were young.In short, if you want to snatch an hour of poetry aswell as music from the dull routine, go and hearthese warblers of the southern zone, ere they wingtheir flight to other climes.

A Wet October The month just passed has beenthe most boisterous and rainy that has been experi-enced in Honolula for a good many years, and No-

vember has come in much the same style. Up to the19th of last month but 1.28 inches of rain had fallen

Dr. Judd's residence in Nuuanu valley, and atCapt. Smith's at Waikiki, 1.50 inches. On the 20th,however, a southerly gale set in, a kona, thefirst in four or five years. After tbe lapse of a weekof varying weather, the 27th came in with anothergale, in which the wind repeatedly varied to everypoint of the compass. On that day the guage atNuuanu showed a fall of 4 75 inches, and at Waikikihalf an inch more. It is noted that when the wind isfrom the south, or light, more rain falls at Waikikithan at Nuuanu. The table of the rain-fa- ll

for the month, at the two points indicated, has beenfurnished us :

Total for the month 21.86 21.07

It would be interesting if the data could be obtainedto compare the rain-fal- l, in the month of October,during the last ten years, with the foregoing. Weare confident, that the month just passedwould prove to be far in excess. In an old file of theHawaiian Spectator, we find some tables of metereo-Iogic- al

observations by the late T. C. B. Rooke, M.D., in which the rain-fa- ll for October, 1838, is setdown at 0.04 inches, and for the same month of thefollowing year, at 12.0. The average for the year1838, was 86.25, that for 1839, 46.08. The fact thatHonolula, 80 years ago, was almost bare of trees,compared with what it is now, may in some degreeaccount for the increase of moisture. During theprevalence of the late rains the barometer stood atfrom 29.75 to 29.90. When the ordinary tradewinds are blowing, the range of the barometer is80.00. The late copious rains were much needed,and will make glad the hearts of the planters andthe graziers.

To the Editor of the Pacific Commercial Advertiser:Sir : The past week has been one of the most

stormy I remember to have noticed during a residenceof nearly a quarter of a century in the district ofHonolula, and will stand npon the records as veryremarkable for the quantity of rain daring sevenconsecutive days. I have carefully noted daily thefall of rain at this place for nearly four years, a ndnpon reference to my notes, find no week which will"compare with the last ; the nearest approach wasfrom Feb. 21st to 28th, 1867, when 19.84 inches felLDuring the last week there fell at my plantation, inNuuanu valley :

daring any one day since, having been 12 inches,2-- i more than last Saturday. During the month ofOctober last, there fell 39.60 inches, being an excessof 8 32 over any previous month of my record. Theleast fall I have noted, was Jan. 1868, being 2 86inches. The average per month from the commence-ment of my record to date has been about andone ninth inches. Very respectfully yours,

J. H. Wood.Nuuanu Plantation, Nov. 3, 1870.

Tbe connection between the vegetation whichcovers a country, the rainfall and tlie eprings,has been so thoroughly recognized, and has beenso often referred to in di fierent journals in Hono-

lulu, that we do not propose to enlarge upon thissubject now. Rain storms, howevcrsuch as wehave recently had, the regular konas, cannot beaffected, except in the most trifling degree, bythe vegetation on our islands. And we shouldprobably have had the name quantity of rainlately if our croup had consisted of bare lava

j rocks. Indeed, tlie bare western slopes of Hawaii: receive all the rain during a kona, at tbe momentwhen on the wooded Ililo side it is fine weather.On the other band the almost constant rain inthe Ililo district, during the continuance of tho

; northeast trade winds, is caused by the moistureheld in the warm saturated air, being forced opon the slopes of Mauna Loa and Mauna Kea,into the colder regions, and there condensed, andthe luxuriant vegetation on the windward side ofHawaii is the result of the rain, not the rain ofthe vegetation.

But the effect of vegetation on our group is ofvastly more importance in retaining the water

THE WAEIN EUROPE.FIVE DAYS LATER NEWS.General SummaFy Elections, &c.

By the arival of the Bhip Thereta, 15 days from

San Francisco, bound for Baker's Island, we havei received dates up to the 20th of October.

Tolb8. October 19. Tbe journals to-d- ay pub-lish the details of the occupation of Orleans by tbePrussian army. Tbe requisitions enforced wereenormous, not only in money and provisions, butall the guns and horses of the city were taken.Tbe soldiers who were quartered upon the inhab-itants fed greedily, drank the best wines, andwasted what they could not use.

Bishop Dupanloup constantly interfered in favorof the citizens ; he went, himself, to the Prussiancommander to obtain a mitigation of tbe exorbitant1 eqnisitions, but in this be was entirely unsuccess-ful.

The correspondents of the journals, in their de-

tails, say the Prussians were well provided for, andshould be comfortable. The officers were seenstudying the maps of the country carefully. Thestrength of the Prussians was calculated at 95,000.

It is understood that the Germans have almostentirely evacuated the left bank of the Loire, toconcentrate 00 tbe right bank of Orleans.

There are many German tobacconists, bakers,and provision merchants, but these men were notdisturbed. The jewelers have just cause of com-

plaint. The richer inhabitants were shot, and tbesoldiers quartered upon them. They wilfully ruin-ed the finest furniture and objects of art Some ofthe most splendid residences of the city weregutted. Tbe greatest indignation exists among thecitizens.

It is rumored that the Prussians are retreatingtoward Paris, seemingly to avoid a combat withthe French force gathered on tbe right bank of theLoire.

At this hour (noon) no official news has beenmade public from Orleans.

A Papal nuncio is expected here to-da- y.

It is reported that tbe Americans now in Paris,at the request of Minister Wasbburne, will be allowed to leave tbe city.

The news from Marseilles is unfavorable: theGarde Civique is troublesome. It is expected thatthe Commissioner will go forward from Tours tosuppress tbe disorder.

A despatch from Belfort announces successfulsortie of the garrison of Neil Briesacb and tbewithdrawal of tbe Prussians from position theyheld, after considerable losses in killed andwounded.

Tbe garrison of Montmedy made another sortie,in which they surprised tbe Prussians, taking 409prisoners, and capturing a military chest with 20.-00- 0

francs, and two wagons loaded with cbaasepoto.Tbe following day they attacked an artillery trainand captured a number of cannon.

General Palladines. commanding tbe Army ofthe Loire, has toned an Order ot Day. declaringthat be will shoot soldiers guilty of Insubordination,and asking bis men to shoot him if he fails io bisduty.

Despatches from Paris are full of details of themeasures of tbe authorities to injure a lasting sup-ply of food. Cattle and sheep are well sheltered.Many horses are killed daily and their flesh potted.Care is taken to keep up tbe supply of vegetables.Tbe stock of potatoes is enormous.

The fortresses keep up a continual Are, destroyingthe batteries of the Prussians as fast as erectedwithin range. Every effort is made by the enemyto throw up offensive works, especially during thenight, but tbe electric lights reveal them, and tbeadmirable fire of tbe marine gunners levels or ren-

ders tbem untenable.Garibaldi has arrived at Belfort, where he was re-

ceived with enthusiam by the soldieis and citizens.Advices from Paris to tbe 14th, confirm the report

that the Prussians asked an armistice for the burialof the dead. This shows bow efiective tbe last sortiewas.

General Leferte has resigned the Portfolio of theWar Department to take command of the ThirteenthMilitary Division, headquarters at Bayonne.

General Pourette, just from Algiers, takes commandof the Eighteenth Military Division, which includesthis city.

A dispatch from Niort, in the Department of Deux-Serv- es,

says seventy Delegates from fourteen Depart-ments of Western France met there, and resolved, bysixty-ei- x to four, to recognize no authority but thatof the Government of Paris and Tours.' Alexander Dumas is at Dieppe, dying of

Steinecker, the new Director of Posts and Tele,graphs, is making liberal reforms in the administra-tion cf both Departments, and has already set asideroutes for the present.

Tbe Journal de Betaneon explains how the reportof the arrest of Lutz, the Red Republican leader,rose. A Prussian officer went to Besancon, and, as-suming; tbe name of Lutz, thoroughly examined thefortifications. He was on the point of leaving when

the authorities arrested him, and his arrest under thename of Luts was reported to the Government atTours ; subsequently the fraud was discovered andthe Prussian officer shot as a spy.

London, Oct. 19. The Council of Ministers is insesHion to-da- y.

LATE FOREIGN SUMMARY.Washington. Oct 7. The announcement is made

by Joseph II. Blackfair, Sup-rintende- of Foreignmails, by order of the Postmas that apostal convention baa been concluded between theUnited States and the Colonial Government ofNew Zealand, establishing an exchange of corres-pondence between the two countries, by means ofa direct line of colonial mail packets, plying be-tween San Francisco and New Zealand, as well asby such other means of direct mail steamshiptransportation as ebalt hereafter be established,with the approval of the respective postal depart-ments of the two countries.

This convention will be carried into operationDecember 31st, 1 870. and establishes internntiunlpostage of twelve cents per each single rate ofhalf ounce or fraction thereof, prepayment ofwhich is compulsory, and letters so prepaid in onecountry are to be delivered free of ull charges inthe other. Letters posted unpaid, or prepaid anyamount less than one full single rale of postage,cannot be forwarded; but insufficiently paid let-ters, on which a single rate or more has been pre-paid, will be forwarded charged with the deficientpof tage for collection on delivery.

Each country is to collect its own postage onlyon printed mailer of all kinds whether seat orreceived, at the fullowiug rates, viz : UnitedStates postage on newspapers, two ceuts each, andon all other articles of printed matter four ceutsper each weight of four ounces or fraction thereof,whether seut or received.

The New Zealand postage on newspapers andother articles cf printed matter sent or receivedfrom the United States, is the same as charged fordomestic postage by the laws and regulations ofthat Colony.

Provision is made for the transportation throughthe United States, as well as for conveyance byUnited States mail packets, of correspondenceinclosed in mails which the New Zealand Post-offi-ce

may desire to transmit by way of the UnitedStates to British Columbia, the British NorthAmerican Provinces, West Indies, Mexico, Centralaud South America ; provided that prepaid lettersfrom foreign countries received in and lorwardedfrom the United States to New Zealand shall bedelivered in said Colony free of all charges what-ever, and that letters r"ceived in New Zealandfrom the United States, addressed to New SouthWah's or Australia, will be forwarded to their des-tination subject to the same conditions as areapplicable to correspondence originating ia NewZealand and addressed to tlioso Colonies. NewYork. Boston and San Francico are offices ofexchange on the side of the United States for allmails forwarded to or received from New Zealand.Under the provisions of this convention, the mailpackets of the Colonial line plying between SanFrancisco and New Zealand will make their de-parture regularly from San Francisco on the 10thof each month.

The report adopted by the Colonial Legislaturein regard to San Francisco mail service is thusgiven : .

1 Seeing that neither of the Australian colonieshas become a party to the San Francisco SteamContract and that New Zealand has been left single--

handed to initiate the line, the committee is ofthe opinion that, in the future conduct of the ser-vice, the Colony should look at its own interestsexclusively ; with which view it is expedient thatthe steamers arriving at Auckland from Honolulushould proceed to Port Chalmers instead of Syd-ney, calling again at Auckland on the returnvoyage to Honolulu. 2. The committee is ofopinion that the time to be allowed between Auckland and Port Chalmers, inclusive of stoppages atWellington and Lyttelton. shall not exceed 100hours. 3. That with a view to carry the foregoingproposal into effect, the Government be empoweredto increase the preseut San Francisco Mail Subsidyso that it should not exceed 40.000 a year. 4.That the Government shall not contract to makesuch payment for longer than three years withoutthe ratification of the General Assembly of NewZealand, and such payment shall be inclusive ofany contribution paid to New Zealand by the Col-onies of Australia and by Tasmania.

The Victoria Post Office authorities are charging;4s. for a newspaper and Is. for a half oz. letter '

brought by the mail steamers from California. The !

result of this arrangement has been to preventmany people taking their letters or newspapers.From one firm the sum of 19 was demanded.

! Coolie Insurrection in Pern.The Herald's Lima lottor. dated September 14th

gives the annexed details of the coolie insurrectionia the valley of Stipe. 150 miles from Lima. Onthe plantation of l'atiollea A. Gulpor. neurly 1.200Chinese were employed, and on the neighboringestates there were more than 4.000 of the coolies.Several months since symptoms of dissatisfactionwere noticed among these laborers, but the over-Bee- rs

and owners trusting to their authority andpower paid but little attention to their manifesta-tions. Unfortunately no precautions were takenagainst surprise ; aud the Chinese left in tranquilitywere able to mature their plans. An Hgent of theestate bad arrived from Lima with a "large sum,destined for paying the laboreis and the purchaseof cotton from the surrounding plantations.

While this person with the overseers, a physicianand several other employes were at supper on thenight of the 4th, the dining room doors were sud-denly broken open, and a crowd of nearly 200coouea, armea witn stakes ana every imaginableweapon, burst in upon tbo whites. In less than isrequired to relate it, the Chinese had murdered alltheir victims save one, who being grievouslywounded, fell under the table and waa thoughtdead. After sacking the bouse and securing therevolvers and rifles on band, the insurgents pro-ceeded to the adjoining hxicienda of Golpeia andrepeated the same barbarities. Not satistied withkilling the whites they encountered, the most re-volting attrocities were practiced on their bodies,and delicate women and children were subjectedto shameful and cruel torture. The number of theChinese now amounted to 1,100, and their move-ments appear to have been directed with some de-gree of intelligence by one whom they seemed tohave bad as their chief.

Having secured all the money and valuables tobe found on the estate, a large game was anticipa-ted in the sacking of the little village of Barranea.Meantime the owner of an estate which lay on theroad to that village was notified by a friendly coolie

An Oregon Version of the Labor Difficulty.A certain judge, and ardent democratic politi-

The udge demurred,replying that the Chinaman had just offered to dothe same work for a half-dolla- r. 44 However'he said, " as I prefer to encourage white Ameri-can labor, I will pay you a dollar and a half,whereupon the white constituent prepared for thework, and John turned away disappointed. Butthe judge returned some hours afterward, and, tohis surprise, found the Chinaman, and not thewhite man, upon his wood-pil- e. 44 IJow's this,how's this?" said his honor, 44 who told you tosaw my wood?" 44 'Melican man," said John.44 How muchee he pay?" queried the judge

Tub Journeyman Printer. What a queergenius the printer is ! llow 6trange if he shouldnever get out of soils. Like politicians, he isperplexed with tns and ouls; and more dutiesdevolve on turn than anv can estimate, lie is aman of many parts but has a rule to guide himin all his works. A planer form is seldom metwith, as he chases Dame fortune, though tie sucksto lilies with moro tenacity than a lawyer to hisbiitfs and cases, while his make-u- p borders manytimes on the ridiculous, and he flourishes incircles where tnonks and friars both fat and lean,never can conjure up a hell to disturb him. Askhim to ride and he lakes the lines of the leaderswithout a puff, giving fair notice that he is readyfor a brush with any who may desire to presshim. As an officer he cuts quite a figure withhis core, (!) and shows his doublet with pride, asbe heads or counts his columns by thousands, andstands to strike for his colors as a proof that it isa mailer of honor with him to copy none whohave gone before. Although versed in impositionand posted on the use of the galleys, he offsetsany foul spots there may be in bis composition bythe clean impression he makes upon society, andthough forced to use a lye sometimes, few candrum up a charge against him of being in a. lowercase than many who are ranked among the upper.He caps bis work as the best type of a man byhis regard for bis chapel, to which the devil isalwavs invited ; and when the sponge ib thrownup, and his mould becomes pi, his dead form ishonored by an imposing stone, and he who re-garded cabinets as mere tools leaves his bank,quoins, and furniture behind for the editor whoeequotations are the most fitting, and the page ofhis life reaches its finis, and as his name fallsfrom the rolls a blank is left in society.
