The Sandwich Island Commission. Messrs. l laalilio and Richards, Commission ers of His Ma jesty of the Sandwich Islands, visited on Saturday last, and wen; received on board the ship-of-war North Carolina and at the Navy Yard with a national salute, and every attention due to their high character as the representatives of an independent na tion. Yesterday they visited Fort Hamilton and were treated with due consideration. This is right. The Sandwich Islanders are a civilized and Christian people ; and now recognised by Uritain, France, liclgiumnnd the United States, as belonging to the great family of nations. A. V.

The last is land steamer brings the following astonish ing intelligence, received from Tahiti by w ay of Panama, that Queen Pomaro having taken refuge on board the Pritish frigate Dublin, the French Admiral (l)ii Petit Thenars) proceeded thither and peremptori ly demanded the surrender of the Queen's person from the Hritish captain. This was of course refused higji words arose between the French admiral and I'nglish captain, and the former leil for his own vesscj furious with indignation. He immediately comman ded the three large men-of-war he had with him iu the bay, to clear for action. They all assailed the Pritish frigate with a mur derous, sustained and simultaneous fire. The Pritish fought to the last, and unk with colors Hying. Probably a hoax. Very likely. Whitewash It there h nothing which so much improves the appearance of a house and the premises, as painting and whitewashing the tenements and fences. The following recij.es for whitewashing have been found by experience to answer the same purpose on wood, brick, find stone.as oil-paint, and are much cheaper. The fust is the recipe used for the Presi dent's house at .Washington, improved by turther experiments. The second is a fimp ler and cheaper (.no, which the writer has known to succeed in a variety of cases, last ing as long and looking as well as w hile oil paint. Ihcipe. Take half a bushel of unpacked lime, and slack it w ith boiling hot water, cov ering it during the process. Slrain it, and add a peek of salt dissolved in warm water, three pounds of ground rice boiled to a thin paste, put in boiling hot ; half a pound of powdered Spanish whiting ; and a pound of clear glue, dissolved in warm water. Mix, and let it stand several days. Then keep it in a kettle on a portable furnace, and put it on as hot as possible, with a painter's or whitewash brush. .Inollur. Make whitewash in the usual way, except that the water used should have two double handfulls of salt dissolved in each pailful of the hot water used. Then stir in a double handful of line sand, to make it thick, like cream. This is better to be put on hot. Coloring matter can be added to both, making a light stone color, a cream color, or a light bull', which arc most suitable for buildings. Latest Dates.
