Unfortunately for the country they generally yieiato the powers that be, and If sufficiently badgered will soon begin to write for the Government press. If so, the spell is broken; favors from the Board of Immigration are showered upon him, DUtrict Judges and the various commissioners see things in a tuuer ent light and E3Cophancv meets with its reward." Is there the smallest foundation for this wholesale calumny! Some of It, of course. is pure nonsense, as for instance: "asignlfi. cant nod to the Commissioners of Crown Lands" lnce, by the Statute, two out of the three Commissioners must be trom the Cab inet and therefore need not "nod" to any body on the subject, either significantly or insignificantly; and, besides, they are admin istering an estate which has no more to do with any individual planter, than his own estate has to do with the Commissioners. Where has a Boundary Commissioner jet sat to hear and decide any case! Tbe former Sole Commissioner, Judge Robertson, sat on two, in which the same Commission ers of Crown Lands were actual parties to the record. How, then, docs any man presume to write, and any paper presume to publish, that the Commissioners, or any of them, have been influenced adversely to any claimant, by corrupt or unworthy mo tives or solicitations of anyone much less third parties! Where Is the planter who will say that thc District Magistrate of his district has been directed, advised, or Influ- enced adversely to him or his interests ! What planter, or other man of business, has been litigant in the Supreme Court and has said, or will say, or has had cause to say, that the Judges, or any of them, have been, or could.be, influenced In their decision by any intimation that thc litigant is unfriendly to a Minister orall of them with the expression "We mnst support the Government, gentle men!" But, fellow citizens, that paper, which It is claimed merits and receives your liberal support, does not hesitate to sap your prosperity by seeking to spread the idea that justice Is insecure, and even yonr courts are venal though the contrary Is the fact ! Tears, position, a long life of use- fulness, are no protection from the slanders of a penny-a-line- whose sole idea is to earn a few a very few dollars, by this dirty work. Ton have all heard the story of the crowd in Dublin, when one cried out, "Don't nail that man's ears to the pump." The crowd, being ripe for such things, took the hint though they had not thought of it before, and thc man's ears were called to the pump So this good citizen proceeds on the same principle, with hints that we have seen, and heard before, from the same and similar sources, that domestic violence would be desirable. Hear him, and see thc counsels which he, as well as some others, (who may not be spoken of, on account of the sacredness of their office, and their immense ecclesiastical elevation,) see fit to give: " Physical demonstration is tbe onlv cor rector of evils In an absolutism. This is not to be expected here. The native population are too listless and too much under the su- perstitions of old, to appreciate the evil. The foreigners mainly come here to make money, and only care for that" The remark made about the native population is very significant, and if they should awake from their lisUessness, one day, it would not be surprising if it were the worse for those who thus outrage a peaceful and unoffending people. I have thought it best to address this to the public, rather than to tbe Editor of the Ga- zette, and hope that he will give it an inser- tion. Fjjlsteb. Ed. Remakes. Probably it may 6afely be asserted that the calumnies commented on by our correspondent were "invented by the author." Mb. Editor. Probably no proposition has been made, within the memory of the "oldest inhabitant" so fraught with the des- tinies of this kingdom and the "rest of man- kind," so calculated to awaken the most lethargic, or to "add new vigor to this de- caying people," as that ofyour wise neighbor when he says in his last issue, in rela- tion to Inter-Islan- d steam, that "This whole question, reduced to a focus, amounts to this shall we have steam or not!" I sup- pose that he means to be understood, that when the rays of thc wonderful light which he has thrown upon the subject, are concen- trated, with the assistance of a powerful lens, an admiring world will at once be able to perceive, that we ore ritAer to Aare, or not to hare" Inter-Islan- d steam!" Sow, I defy any other man, to so satisfactorily settle so important a question in so few words. With him, it is inspiration and possible, with others, it would be darkness,and, perhaps, impossible. He also proves, in the same article, beyond a reasonable doubt, that we should at once offer $25,0001 thought my offer of 40,000 was, if anything, too liberal to the .Xorth Paciflc Trans- portation Company to indnce that cor- poration to put on suitable Inter-Islan- d steamers, prorlded of course, that they will consent to perform the service with vessels under the American flag, which they would probably consent to do. Only a few questions have suggested themselves to my mind, whlh would have tbe effect to make me hesitate in giving my " unmitigated" support to the above proposition. Among the most simple of these questions are the following: Firstly: If a "responsible Ministry" were to permit vessels under a foreign flag to engage in the coasting trade, would there not be dan ger that the ghost of the Constitution of 1S52, outraged beyond endurance at such a palpable disregard for a plain and explicit lax, might arise and hurl them from the proud positions they cow occupy ! Second- ly: How would it work in case this Gov- ernment should demand the use of one of said steamers and be refused, and then take her by force, and use her for the purpose required, might'et the bin be heavier than the service done would seem to deservend who would be likely to attend to the collection, and who would be the judge of the necessity of such use by Government! Thirdly: Tour brilliant friend talks thus: "In fact tbe contract should contain such a provision as is made by the American and British Gov- ernments with their subsidized steamers." Please sir, mark the word "their." Are there now any British steamers, subsidized by the American Government as coasters, or American steamers, subsidized by the Brit- ish Government,? coasters, "which are bound upon demand, to enter the service of the na- tion by which they are subsidized. And if there are any each incase of a "little dif-- rlZLTZZ take, and what would become or them IT they happened to be caught taking the wrong side ! Don't you answer these questions Mr. Ed- itor. I want thc JoVerfiscr to do so, out of that rare and priceless copy or Puffcndort Sever having spoken one single word, with any Minister, or other official of this Govern- ment, about steam, I am unable to give the Ministerial views on the question; but let ns hope that they are as sound and as "broad and national" as those of the advocates of foreign subsidy. Tours, Stxav. P. S. If another and greater "ring" has "subsidized" any one, to advocate the little scheme above referred to, St is to be hoped that they have made the thing sufficiently remunerative to warrant a man ln making himself supremely rediculous. 8. Me. Editor: I venture to trouble you with a few reflections, which have been sug gested to my mind by recent events, In regard to the character of the responsibility resting upon those who undertake the conduct of a newspaper In the Hawaiian language There arc, I hold, few positions ln this country, of more grave and solemn responsibility than that of one who undertakes, from week to week, to Instruct and amuse this people through the medium of the press. There is no calling lu which, he who undertakes It is required to be possessed of a calmer, or more matured judgment, a wider phUanthrophy, or a greater amount of that charity, which is inclined to look at the actions of all men from the most favorable point of view. The great want of books of a general character, in his own language, renders the Hawaiian (who is unable to read foreign books and papers) entirely depen- dent upon his newspaper, not only for a Knowledge of the progress of events, but for guidance in the great moral and political questions of the day. The confiding nature of the Hawaiian, makes him particularly sus-- ceptible to thc views of those to whom he looks as his teachers. It Is therefore a thing much to be regretted, If there should be any professed teachers of this people, who.in their papers, are rabid, bitter, and denunciatory towards any. There seem to be some people, wbo, although they must be aware, that honest men of like intelligence, have dis- agreed on almost every subject that has arisen since the world commenced are perfectly Incapable of comprehending how anyone can disagree with (Aem, and be honest So man can hotutUg feel this way, unless he is perfectly satisfied that in himself Is the very sum of human wisdom and perfection; and, I mnst say that a man wbo leels thus, must be a happy man, and has a perfect right to be proud of himself. A majority of re flecting people are very apt to mistrust that those who appear to be filled with this belief in their own Infallibility, are not alto gether sincere; and not unfrequently, attri bute designing and wicked motives, where the utmost professions of the purest motives, are made. Without attempting to discuss, as to whether this mistrust is well founded, I venture to make the assertion that people such as these, are not the proper persons to conduct a native Hawaiian newspaper nor for that matter, any other: because they do not elevate, and are not capable of elevating and enlightening the people, but on the con--' trary, are the persons who are best calcnlat-- 1 ed to do the very reverse. If they, assuming to occupy the very highest moral, religious and political ground, denounce those who do not see things exactly as they do, as dis- honest knaves or incompetent blockheads, they are teaching the people to become in- tolerant ; besides, they are telling them what in ninety-nin- e cases oct of well, we'll say niacfy-nw- Is not true. If they continu- ally tell the people that they are down-trodde- and oppressed, when the people are not down-trodde- n and oppressed; the people, you know, will after a time lose faith in their advisers and friends, and there will cornea time when these advisers and friends i of the people, will be utterly Incapable of doing the dear, down-trodde- n people any more good. Indeed, this reflection would make me quite inconsolable, were it not for the fict that, at that time and thereafter, they will not be able to do the people any more harm. This last reflection goes a great way towards fully reconciling me to the harrow- ing possibility of the first ; indeed I am so far reconciled by it, as to be fully of the opinion that the sooner that time comes the better for all concerned particularly for Oie people. V. The following extract from the report to the A. B. C. F. M., may not have met the eyes of all our readers, and therefore we give it the benefit of our circulation. The persistent efforts and inficenee of the Papacy, and of Reformed Catholics in hostility to the labors and counsels of the missionaries, are a perpetual hindrance to their work. The g and benevolent labor of years, and the expenditure of hundreds of thousands of dollars, with their manifest good and wide-spre- results, have been wholly ignored, disregarded, and as far as practicable circumvented and destroyed, by interfering emissaries from European Christian communi- ties. Still, the addion of 27 new members to the native churches, and contributions from native members of near 30,000 dollars, to-- gttner witn tne almost entire support of their own churches, and the sending of their own missionaries to the islands beyond them, show their deeply rooted. Evangelical piety, and the presence and blessing of God's spirit This whole mission and its fruits, gave the richest encouragement to the American Church. and to the Christianity of the world, to com- mit itself, promptly and unfalterinclr. to the great work of converting all the nations of ine eartn to tne religion of the Lord Jesus It is a subject of regret that our Congrega tionalist and Presbyterian friends think that the work of their of other denomi nations is to prejudicial, and that the manifest good of then own labors Is " practically circumvented and destroyed " by the hostile efforts of the others. But others, disinterested and impartial, think taat the seal of our friends causes them to exaggerate the hind. ranee to their work from the sources mentioned. There is room enough for all. Neither of the two denominations mentioned lias the smallest hostility to tbe labors and counsels of the Hawaiian Evangelical Association, nor wish to " destroy or circumvent" the manifest good and wide spread results of their benevolent labors. They undoubtedly differ very strongly on polemical subjects. but most clearly, one diSers as much from the other as the other from the one. Inasmuch as religious tenets and theories are not demonstrable, those esgaged in pressing different Tiewt, too frequently become so identified with them, as to think that any who differ from them, "hinder" their work. and. it is to be honed, that the idea that any religious denomination is " hostile" to the efforts of the others, or ii interfering" to crevent a from doin-- . good, may .disappear, and that all will work logetner, or separately, for the common good, CALIFORNIA CORRESPONDENCE. FROM OCS REGULAR OOKBESrOSDEST. Sax FBAsasco, March as, 1SB9. The Paclfle Railroad. Only about one hundred miles of track now remains to be laid, and the Continental Railroad will be completed. The Central Pacific is finished to within about forty miles of Monument Point or the north end of .Salt Lake, and the Union Pacific has about sixty miles ot tract to lay to reach the same point The Central Pacific is laying from three to four miles a day, and has Its grading completed to Monument Point; this gap ts almost certain to be closed by the flrst of May, some say by the middle of April. Some parts or the Union Pacific Road are understood to be very badly constructed. A correspondent who has lately been over the road writes as follows : As to the construction or the Pacific Rail- road, It Is not done according to contract from Bryan westward: tbe grade Is low. in some places made ot chunks or (rozen dirt. wucn win soften Into mush In the spring; thc culverts and bridges are all or wood, temporary structures. Tbe obstacles In the construction or this road have been prodigious, and the tempta- tion to construct portions or the road in a temporary manner have been very great One or the very first things President Grant did, after stepping into office, was to remove two of the three Commissioners or the Union Pacific Railroad. These men had undoubtedly been unfaithful to the trust reposed in tbera, and they were removed at once. They J were too ready to accept the railroad. As soon as a ribbon section of twenty miles was run out, it was promptly accepted and the government subsidy paid. President Grant thought it best that the Railroad Company should not own the Commissioners. It is said that "emigrant trains" will be placed ou thc road dally, or weekly, as tbe demand may require, and passengers by these trains will be brought at ranch cheaper rates than ever were heard of before. Emigrant passage tickets, will be sold at a price not exceeding fifty dollars, trom .Neir iorK to any point in lamurnia. The rates of fare on the overland roads arc two and a half cents a mile, between Sew Tork and Chicago, five cents a mile on thc Union, and ten cents a mile, gold, on thc Central. At these figures, and reducing thc charges through to gold rates, we get the following approximate estimates or tbe cost of a first-clas- s through ticket: Jftt. rtm. Sew Tort to Chicico 900 SIS 75 Chicago tc Omaha 1 44 17 41 Omaha to Salt Lata 1,070 40 13 Salt Lake to San Francisco. 77j 77 SO Total! S,29 353 91 In the statement of distances, six miles should be added for ferriage from Oakland to San Francisco, making' a total of 3,905 miles. The Central Pacific Company promises to reduce its rate of fare in Jnly next and this would reduce the charge on the Central to gold, and the cos! of a through trip to $115.25. Tbe cost of meals and other incidental expenses along the road need not cost more than S25, for a trip consuming onlv six to eight days. Tbe final completion of this great road will be a distinguished event the twenty years dream of California will be realized, and a new era of rapid development and substantial prosperity will begin. The Alaska Fur Bnslness. A Committee of the Chamber of Com- merce of this city, iu a report to that body on the Alaska For Trade, have made some Interesting statements They say that the Russian American Fur Company are reported to have taken from the various points, within their field or operations, during 1SC0 and 1S67, 137,943 fur seals, 10.S35 foxes, 13,476 beavers, 7,970 muskraU, 3,905 sea otters, 2,703 land otters. 6,733 martins, 55S lynx, and 226 bears ; the skins and oil of all estimated at $1,400,-00- 0. The fur trade Is the only present wealth of the country, and 6hould be carefully guarded. Under proper restrictions, they see no good reason why the fur trade may not be thrown open to all The fnr trade is the key to the commerce of the country, and they think It nuwise and unfair to allow one or more companies to have a monopoly. They recommend that a Territorial Govern- ment be organized at an early day. Tbe Orel-lan- alalia, Have been very badly interrupted, during thf TMEf mnnth Tt ts caM .. n 1a.m. .,.,... . . , , Ogden City, the Western terminus of the Union Pacific Railroad. The distance from Ogden City to the eastern end of the Central Pacific Railroad, Is some 1C0 miles on a direct course; but owing to the bad condition of the roads, and the locations of Mail Stations. Wells Fargo & Co's coaches pass Ha Salt Lake City, by which route, the distance is greater than stated. Letters sent by Wells Fargo fc Co's Express are as much behind time as those by the maU. It is probabletbatthe mails will not assume their wonted regularity for a month to come. The long delayed malls are expected to arrive In this city night This delay has been the worst we have experi- enced In a long time, and business has actually suffered by It ALdTKiZ.

During one day this week, onr reporter Tislted the hous-- e recently completed by the Board of Health, at Kahololoa, denominated the ' Quarantine ground," on the reef westward of Honolulu harbor. The particular spot Is known by the natives as MbkuakullknlL The location is certainly a very salubrious one, for, " whatever aire the winds may blow," to use the words of the immortal Burns the dwellers on the quarantine grounds will get the fall benefit of all the aire of heaven. The passage thither can be made by boat, but is preferable on horse- back, for the water, at the ordinary state of the tide, Is not over four Inches deep, any- where on the reef. There are three buildings which have been erected by Mr. L. L. Torbert, under directions from the Board. Beginning with No. 2, the building Intended for confirmed cases of infectious diseases, we went along to No. 1, where those suspected of having disease are to be lodged, and thence to Nnmber nothing, which we des- ignate as the boarding-house- , o. 2 is pro- vided with eight roomy but at present there are do matrasses) nor any bed- ding on the spot, bnt tbey can be brought there at any moment. This house Is the lee- ward one, and somewhat makal of the others. It, as well as the other two, Is well ventilat- ed, and all necessary conveniences are at- tached. In the building which we have designated as No. 1, there are some twelve About fifty yards eastward hence, we find a long, large, roomy building, divided off Into compart- ments, Intended for the accomodation of those, male and female, who may be unfortu- nate enough to arrive here In an Infected ves- sel. The accomodations are all that could be asked, both regarding the comfort and convenience of those whom the board may feel It their duty to keep in quarantine for a period of time. Altogether, about ninety persons can be comfortably accommodated at the quarantine buildings. Beports from the towns along the Genes-se- e and Slohawk rivers, atate that those streams are very high, and have overflowed their banks in various places, submerging the bouses and farms. There are fear of an ex- traordinary flood.

As Old Landmark Gone. The wooden store on the corner of King and Fort Streets, long occupied by E. O. Hall & Son, was sold at auction yesterday by Adams & Wilder, (to be removed) for the cum of ?10S, to L. L. Torbert. It is the intention of the Messrs. Hall to erect on the lot a substantial fire proof store. strong Mustard. c heard a man say the other day that California mustard was the ttrongest in the world. In proof of this, he stated that recently, while mixing some in a cup, he dropped some on his pants. In a few moments', a small blister arose, on puncturing v?hich, a spoonful of "shoddy exuded. A Cactiok to Bathers. One day last week, as some fishing canoes were unloading their freight at the fish market, an immense shark showed himself near the wharf. The fishermen were at once alive w ith excitement, and lu a short time had the monster last and hauled ashore. He measured about tnelve feet In length. An ugly customer to meet with, when one is enjoying a salt-wat- bath in the harbor. A bio squash. Yesterday, on the Post Office Verandah, there was exhibited an immense squash, raised by Mr. Crowell, the curator of the K. H. Agricultural Society's Garden. It weighed somewhere about SO pounds. It purported to be "White Pine Squash, No. 1., by an Inscription on its broadside. It is to be hoped that this squash, thns marked "White Pine Squash," is not ominous of a financial "squash" to come in the new Eldorado. Axscal Meetixq or the St. George's SociErr. The annual meeting of the benevolent association will take place at the Public Hall, on Saturday evening next, at 7 o'clock. After the meeting, there will be a supper, as Ofnal. Friday is St. George's Say, bnt the meeting has been called for Saturday evening, to meet the views of many in the Society whose business confines them to early and late hours, and who feel the necessity of going to their morning's work having had a full night's rest. Per reouest Amoxq the recent Treasury Regulations is the following which is of interest to onr citizens and may give them a chance to sell their salt "If foreign salt Is used without the limits of the United States for curing fish of Amer- ican catch, the fish are not thereby rendered dutiable, nor is the salt so used liable to duty. If salt purchased aboard for ;the curing of fish is not consumed in the curing, but Is brought into an Amerian port, the salt would then be liable to duty, but the fish of American catch, cured with such foreign salt before importation, are free of duty." Personal. Amour the nassenrers ner Idaho, which sails tomorrow, are CapL Worth, C. S. Consul at Hilo, Capt. J. M. Oat of this city, Mr. J. S. Low of Kauai, and Mr. J. L. Lewis, the cooper of King street, and others. Of the latter gentleman, It may be mentioned as on instance of close application to business, that duriuir the Dast eleven years, there have been but three working- - days in which he was absent from his coop- erage. We wish our friends a pleasant trip and hope that the White Pine fever, will not attack them so severely as to prevent their speedy return. Letter from" China. A letter has been received at this office from a Chinaman named W. S. Akaua, who formerly lived at Hilo, dated Hongkong, Feb. 6. He states that gold mines have been discovered In the northern part of China, but that they had been tabued by the Emperor. A coasting schooner within a few miles of Hongkong, had been taken by pirates, and the passengers despoiled of all their money and effects, the booty being estimated at 1 15,000. Among the passengers was one Akana (not the writer of this letter) but a brother of Achuck, one of the firm of Afong fc Achuck, of this city. He lost all his baggage and $500 In cash. There were over one hundred merchant vessels lying at Hongkong. Japakese Plaxts. Messrs Adams & Wil- der, are about to sell, at their Auction room, this morning, a superb collection of Japanese plants; every one that adds an ornamental plant to the repertoire of our community, Is do-In- service that will survive him and bless many. This is true, in a still greater degree, fruit of bearingplants. How many have reason to bless the forethought of Paymaster Horatio Bridge, who brought ns the Bose- - apple, Nisboro, and other trees. Mr. John Montgomery's efforts, in this line, are most appreciable. Capt. Adams of Kallbl, will be kindly remembered on this account. But among all, In future years, Doctor Hillebrand will be most cherished In the memory of all, who can appreciate good works. The plants, for sale this morning are both ornamental and fruit bearing, as we understand it Let all go and compete generously for the plants, that others may be tempted to bring more, and when they have gotten them, give their neighbors slips and cuttings, and promote the feeling of sympathy and good will among us. TEN O'CLOCK IS THE HOUR. """Narrow Escaj-- e or His Maiestt. On Saturday last, about the hour of noon, His Majesty the King, accompanied by the Hon. IV. P. Kamakau, Circuit Jndge of Oahu, was walking In the cocoanut grove at Waikiki, adjacent to his seaside cottage, when three paces past a cocoannt tree, which stood in the path of the pedestrians, suddenly fell, with a crash, right in the place that half a minute before had been occupied by the King. Funeral or the late Hon. Mrs. A. K. Kafaaeea. On Sunday last, p. m., the remains of this honored lady, more generally known as Keobokalole, were taken from the residence of Ma). Mocbonua, where they had been deposited since being received from Hilo. and were conveved to the vanlt in the Kawaiahao burring ground. A large con - course of natives and foreigners assembled at the house, and followed the hearse to the church of Kawalahao. Some thirty Kahili bearer, marched on each side of the hearse. A marked feature of the procession was four torch bearers Insignia of the family to which the deceased chicles belonged the torches were composed of knkni-nnt- s wrap- ped or enfolded In There were four of them, two alight, and the other two unligbted. At the church, the services were very solemn and Impressive. The choir sang several chants and anthems with admirable skill and precision, the words being original and composed for the occasion. The funeral sermon was preached by the Rev. H. H. Par- ker, pastor of the church, the text selected being Rev. c 22, v. 7: "Behold I come quickly; blessed is be that keepctb the say- ings of the prophecy of this book." The re- marks of the Reverend gentleman were very eloqnent, and his allusions to the many ami ' able qualities of the deceased brought tears mm many eyer juc services in me ennren, being concluded, the body was taken to the w a . u.. ..... ,MU- - MU "w oe,nS ocposiiea wunin, a uymn was sung dv me cnoir, and prayer; offered by Rev. Mr. Parker. The Wild Man or tiie Woods. Some eight or ten years ago, Mr. Isaac Adams, liv- ing at Niu, beyond Dimond Head, having repeatedly lost fowls, bananas, etc., in a mysterious manner, at last discovered the thief in the person of a wild man, whose ex- istence in the mountains had frequently been asserted by the natives, bnt had generally been regarded as a myth. Setting a watch, Adams sncceeded in capturing the man, and brought him to town, where an enterprising publican made some money by exhibiting him as "The Wild man of Niu." For some months afterwards, Adams took care of the "wild man," fed, and clothed him, but he could not be prevailed upon to speak, and eventually ran away again to the mountains. Making his way along the mountain ridge of Konabuanul, he next appeared In the neighborhood ot Halawa, and recommenced bis de- predations. He was occasionally seen and chased, bnt eluded pursuit among the wilds and mountain fastnesses. Recently, however, he was captured on the land of Mr. Paiko, In the act of pulling up water-melo- vines and plucking corn. Brought before the Police Court on Wednesday last, on a charge of malicious Injury, and addressed In three or four different languages, he still kept silence. After hearing the testimony, the Magistrate sentenced him to six months imprisonment at bard labor. The following day, he was at work on the esplanade, managing a wheel- barrow as skillfully as a "navvy," and having found his tongue, spoke tolerable English and Hawaiian. There Is a mystery as to what conntryman he is, and bow he came here. Sctbexe Cocbt. In the case of The King vs. John Brown, tried for the burning of the ship Kig Plillip, the jury rendered a verdict of guilty. Counsel for the prisoner subsequently filed a motion for a new trial, which was argued, but the decision of the Court has not been rendered np to the time of going to press. Asee, convicted of burglary on the premises of a Chinese restaurant, was sentenced to two years' imprisonment. The Court was occupied yesterday on a motion to disbar a native Counsel, Mr. Kailiau-te-a. The allegation was that one Moku, had in his lifetime, made a deed of some laud on the other side of this Island, (Oahu,) to his grandson. Moku subsequently died, not having " acknowledged " the deed, and it was brought to town to cure that defect, which can be done, legally, by proving the signatures of the witnesses. It was brought to one Koine-aloh- a, who, in company with one of the witnesses, Nakapalu, called on the Counsel above alluded to, and asked him to make a copy of thedeed, signing Moku's name to it, Nakapalu personated the dead man, (Moku), to the Notary, John 11. Paty, Esq., and thus having the acknowledgment, got the deed recorded. The whole thing depended on the testimony of Kamealoha and Nakapalu, who were, of course, guilty of the wrong. Per contra, the accused man set up that the original deed was a perfectly good one ; that they asked him to make a copy of it, and paid him a dollar for his work ; and that he never asked any one to personify the deceased, but that Kamealoha did, as he himself testified, and if there were any wrong, it was his. The Court said that if tbey were to disbar a man on such testimony, that is to say, the testimony of people who, if any wrong was done, were principal to it such proceedings might be taken against the most honorable member of the Bar, and the motion was, consequently, refused. Admiral Hastings has been expected here, and was to take a house, and spend some considerable time. Victoria, March SL Admiral Hastings has received orders from England to proceed at once with IL JL ship Zealout to Valparaiso. The Sparrow JZaKk has also been ordered away. The departure of these vessels will leave but one sbip-of-w- and agnnboat on this station. An entertainment tendered by the citizens of this place to Admiral Hastings and the o Ulcers o( the nary, to take place this week, was declined for want of time. New Tore, March 29.
