This well-known and highly esteemed Hawaiian gentleman died some-, what euddenly in this city on Thursday last, ne had accompanied the Royal Party on the recent tour to Hawaii and Maui, being in usual health until Monday last at Lahaina, when he complained of head ache and pain in the breast. His disease is pro nounced to have been congestion of the longs. Mr. Lilikalani occupied the post of District Justice at Koloa, Kauai, and he had in former years sat as a Representative from that Island. We learn that His Majesty had contemplated giving him the ap pointment of Governor of Kauai. He was about 50 years of age. jZES' Items of local neics, appearing in the Gov ernment Gazette, when recorded by the present Director, or by his " itemizer," must be read with much allowance, as regards place, time, cr circum- ol.nro A r;rrrft rpoortl or events at heme does not appear to be of mucn " importance to the Gazette man, which accounts for the incorrectness of many of the local items in that paper.

SurBEJiE Court. During Thursday and a part of yesterday, Chief Justice Allen and Associate J ustice Harris occupied the bench and the case of the con tested will of His late Majesty Lunalilo came up on appeal for trial by a native jury. The verdict, rendered yesterday forenoon, confirmed the will and codicil, with the exception cf the fourth clause of the latter, which provides for the maintenance of the proposed asylum out of the avails of the estate beyond the sum of 25,000. It is a question as to whether the rejection of that clause will benefit the contestant One case was tried yesterday by a for eign jury that of E. O. Hall, Minister cf the Inte rior, vs. Geo. C.

Honolulu, April 17th, 1874. - The Rioters Sentenced. On Wednesday last iu tfce Supreme Court, the forty-one persons convicted during the previous week of having participated, with more or less of criminality, in the riot of February last, were brought up and sentenced. Four were sentenced to imprisonment for Eve years each ; five to three years ; cue to two years : and three to eighteen months. Twenty-seven were condemned to pay fines varying from one dollar up to two hundred. Iu discharging the native jury Mr. Associate Justice Harris addressed them as follows : Gentlemen: Your labors during the term have been most arduous. The occasion which gave rise to the trials ia which you have performed so im portant a part, was a grievous one to all friends to this nation. But as in human affairs, evil 13 mixed with good, so likewise there is no evil without some good mixed with it. The quietness, good order and decorum with which these trials have gone on. has given assurance that good order reigns amongst the people, and that public opinion will justify no man and no combination of men in the disturbance of the public peace. If the disturbance shall have the effect to repress wrong teaching and to make the people to appre ciate the blessings of good government and order, and to understand that liberty can only be retained by ccnfoiming to th? law, and by obedience to the constituted authorities the liot will not be with out its good effect. in the meantime your country may well congrat ulate itself upon the diligenae, calmness and delib eration, with which you have investigated these cases, and the discrimination of which you have given evidence in your verdicts. It does not appear to me that any of those who have been convicted can possibly think that all the evidence and every circumstance in their favor has not been duly weighed by you, whilst in looking upon the acquittals, I can truly say that there ha3 been in all of them at least a reasonable doubt, and your verdicts have been equally creditable to you. .. i - - TEE R0YALPR0GRESS. FKOM OXTR srEClAL COKRDfrONDENT. Oar ac:unt closc-J lst week with tLe arriv' of the Kijml party at Makena, cn L-a-t Maui the lanl iag place cf Capt. Mks planUtion, on TuesJaj, April Ttb. Ia or Jinary weather, a very gool uni- in? raav be male here cn a wharf Luut open the I rocks, anl the anchorage '; w-thin bail from the 1 1 shore. 1 Gov. Kar-ena, who had ccme rcunl from Lahaioa, j met the party here, and their Mijwties the King an J Queen landed at S o'clock r. m. and were received with cheers from the people wh had assemble! from j the plantation three miles inland, and from.tLc.iB- mediate neighborhood cf Makena. Some eighty torch-bearers esccrted the King to the residence cf Capt. Makee, which was reached at about 10 o'clock. The reception here was quite as enthusiastic as at any point on the journey hitherto, and the peculiarity was that it came from one individual and his imme diate family the worthy proprietor cf Ulopalakna. The main entrance to the grounds surrounding the mansion, was surmounted with an illumination bear. iDg the words " Welcome to the King," in red let ters, bordered with sprays of pine-leaves. Ia every direction, inside and outside the houses, were profuse decorations cf flowers, maile, ferns, etc. A Beat tut roomy cottage was set apart for the use of their Maj esties, and here the party remained in the enjoymeut of the liberal hospitality cf Capt. Makee until Friday the 10th inst. In the interim, a large feast in the native style was spread under the shade of the noble trees near the mansion; a ball was given, t which the early hours of the morning saw the dance still going on ; and space was afforded to visit and exam ined all the points of interest on and about this princely estate. THE MAGNIFICENT FLOWkR GARDEN In front of the mansion, is deservedly the pride of the lady of the house. Here in wonderful profusion is a wealth of choice and rare plants and shrubs, from every clime, that is quite bewildering. A mag nolia was in full bloom, its splendid flowers ten inches in circumference, filling the air with its fra grance. Roses were not in season, but varieties of fuchsias, lilies, pinks, pansies, violets, and nameless beauties without number, attracted the eye at every turn amidst the labyrinth of walks. The garden is on an incline, the walks cemented, and iu rainy weather the water runs off in covered drains and helps to fill the huge cisterns below the road, where are stored supplies of the necessary fluid against a dry season. THE MAKEE PLANTATION. Our space will not permit on the present occasion an extended description of this, perhaps the largest and most expensive sugar estate on the islands, but we hope on some future occasion to do it justice. Its annual product is about one thousand tons, mostly of No. 1 sugars, and it employs about 150 hands. The boiling works are very costly and ex tensive, everything being of the latest and most im proved pattern. A great work has been accomplished here in tree planting. Not less than 150,000 trees, mostly eu calyptus cf thirty diflerent varieties, and many pines, have been set out on the estate. The cyclone which swept over the islands several years ago de stroyed many of these trees, but those now growing thriftily will number not far from 120,000, of vari ous heights, from five to thirty feet. Baeides the young forest near the mansion, the tops of tho neighboring hills are crowned with groves, that im part a picturesque air to the scenery. One of these hills, perhaps a half a mile from the mill, is called Frospect Hill, and affords a fine view of the planta tion and the whole broadside of East and West Maui. The carriage road around this hill is con structed with much labor, and winds gradually to the top, a height of probably not far from 600 feet above the surrounding country. Tho site of the mill itself i3 some 4,000 feet above the level of the sea. ' On the estate is a church building, comfortably furnished with seats for worshipers, and provided with an altar and an organ. And appropriately placed on a hill below the mansion. m-K.J- groves or pine ana cypress, stands the family mau soleum, a handsome specimen of architecture. . This provision for the end of life would seem to show that the worthy proprietor of Ulupalakua has indeed " driven his 6takes " here in Hawaii nei, and looks nowhere else for an earthly habitation. Of him with truth it can be said, that whatever of wealth he has accumulated here is used here for the benefit of the country, and not carried abroad to be expended. His Majesty's party was indebted to Capt. Makee for a comfortable rest at his beautiful estate, and their entertainment was on a scale of princely hospitality. At 10 o'clock on the morning of Friday, the 10th inst., they took horse, and bidding good-bye to their kind hosts started forth on the road to WAILCKC. There were over a hundred horsemen in the train at the start. The distance from Ulupalakua to Wai luku in a straight line, is said to be 20 miles. The day was fine, the sun without a cloud, and the ride to Kalepolepo, which was reached by 12 o'clock, was fatiguingly hot. At this point a deputation was met from Wailuku, consisting of over a hundred horse men. These opened to the right and left, cheering the Royal party as it passed through, and then brought up in the rear, the cavalcade now consisting of some 300 horsemen. Across the plains towards Waikapu, the trade winds were met, and with the wind came clouds of dust mingled with sand that burned when it touched the face. Reaching at length the plantation buildings on Mr. Cornwell's estate, the dust infliction ceased, and here, spanning the road, was an arch, with the words, " Aloha na Wai ehu ia Kalakaua." Here a crowd of the people were gathered and cheered His Majesty as he rode along. Two other arches were met, spanning the bridges be tween Waikapu and Wailuku, on which were in scribed, Kalakaua," and, The Throne is founded on Justice." In Wailuku itself, which was reached at 2 r. m. , from the Good Templars' Hall onward the florol arches were numerous, with appropriate in scriptions, such as Welcome to our King, Kala kaua;" "Kalakaua Kapiolani;" Long live the King;" etc. All along the road the people cheered repeatedly and enthusiastically. -,? At Wailuku their Majesties were entertained at the5. residence of the Hon. Mr. Kuihelani, and also at that j of Mr. Samuel Farker. During the afternoon, the people came in crowds to bring their hookupu gifts, and to get a glimpse at their Majesties. In the even ing', the Wailukuans gave A GRAND BALL At fhe Good Templars' Hall, which waa attended by . their Majesties the King and Queen, the Princess Ly dia '.Kamakaeha and Gov. Dominis, and the members of the Bxyal party generally.:. The Hall was very handsomely decorated.with evergreens and brilliantly lighted, and was well filled with the beauty and fshion of Wailuku (which by the way, is fast aspir ing to displace Lahaina as " the second city of the Kingdom," in point of wealth and population.) A bountiful supper was provided, and the ball, which lajted until long past midnight, was voted by all, a grand success. : ' THE IGNIS rATTTS. Some time after arriving at Wailuku, His Majeety inquired for Gov. Kanoa, who had not yet put in an ajpearance. Some one had seen him when the cav afcade left Ka'epolepo, and it was thought that per hps he had stopped to rest on the road. But when he did not appear cn the next morning, messengers were sent in search of him. During the forenoon, he arrived pretty well exhausted, haviDg got bewil dered on the plains and ridden all night. He de clared that becoming separated from the party, he bad followed what he thought was the road until nightfall, when seeing a light in the distance which he supposed proceeded from a house he rode towards it, only to find it to disappear, while in another direction a new light appeared, which also in turn eluded his search, and so on, he was the victim of the tni't fatuut said to be frequently teen at night on the plains of Kamacmao.

The good people cf the soc. nd city were all en hand to receive us. His Majeety landed at 8 o'clock, and was received at the wharf by Gov. Kapcna and the other cflkials of Maui and escorted to the Court House, ami Jit the cheers of the people, who were present in crowds. The party uiade their head quarters at the large house belonging to Gov. Nahao lelua. Here during the entire day the people came to present their hockupu an I to pay their respects to their Majesties. At noon, the Protestant Church if Waince was filled to overflowing with the populacr, who were addressed by His Majesty as follows: Teople of Lahaina : Before addressing to you the brief remarks which I propose to make 00 this occasion, I cannot omit referring to some memories of my late laineuted Predecessor, who tuadeashort visit here last year, on tho journey which he undertook for the benefit of his health. The late King was deeply solicitous for the welfare of his people, tut the condition of his health was such that lie was uuaU to carry ont his plans for their good. I regarded the late King and his two immediate predecessors with strong aUection, for on these sands ami among these fields cf Lahaina, they and I have pUyed to gether as boys, in the family of our grandmother, lioapili Wahiue. The recollections of those day long past come before mo vividly now. "And now I have come hither to see you, ns my children, and that you may look upon me as your father. I thank you much, people of" the district of Lahaina, for the very warm and loyal reception which you have given us, one which neither myself, the Queen nor the members of the Uoynl Family can cease to remember with pleasure. " The trincipal object which I have had iu view In making this journey laniotig my people, is that we may all be incited to renewed exertions fur the ad vancement and prosperity of our nation, the extinc tion cf which has been prophesied. Figures of the census have been published to fchow that we are a dying race. But shall wc bit still, nnd indolently see the structure erected by our Tubers fall to riecea without lifting a hand to stay tho work of destruction? If the bouse is dilapidated, let us repair it. Let us thoroughly renovate our own selves, to the end that causes of decay being removed, the nation may grow again with new life and vigor, and our Government may be firmly established that structure which our fathers erected. There are some of the old folks remaining and here present, the people of the time of Katneha meha I., who heard that celebrated saying : Tho old men, the old women, and the children may sleep by the waysid without fear.' That inutio remains good to this day. Kamehamehu II. broke the tabu ou social intercourse his word was. 'O ka ainoa.' Said Kaun'liamcha III., 4 The righteous mau is my man,' and this m ntiment nrovaila lo-d:iy among us, both foreigners and natives. 1 believe that if I shall make the main object of my reign the increase of tho nation, there may be secured both the stability of tho Government and the na tional independence. Then let my motto be 'The man and woman who shall live correctly nnd bring forth children, they are my people.' And I charge you parents, take every vaie ol your little ones. And to you children also I say, obey your parents. " The increase of the people; the advancement of agriculture and commerce; these are the ob jects which my Government will mainly strive to accomplish." Many of the old men and women present wept audibly while tho King was thus eloquently speak ing, and he was frequently interrupted with enthu siastic applause durin? the "'"' of his remarks. rn ine evening, their Majesties and euite attended a ball and supper at the mansion of Henry Tnrton. Esq., one of the proprietors of tho Pioneer Mill. The party was escorted to tho ball by somo three hundred torch-bearers. Lahaina probably has not seen for years so brilliant an assemblaee as graced the Turton mansion on tbo night of the 13th. The house and grounds were brilliantly illuminated, the night was still and clear, and Berger's band discoursed sweet music until about 3 o'clock, when tho Royal party re-embarked on the Kiluuea, and at a quarter past four she was underway for 1TKOO, MOLOKAI. A few minutes past six, the steamer came to anchor off this place, nearly opposite Lahaina. His Majesty went ashore here, and saw tho people who gathered to the number of several hundreds. The usual speeches were made and presents brought, and after a stay of about an hour, the party re turned to the steamer, which at once steamed off for Kalanpapa. We had no time to spare, for Honolulu would expect us by 10 o'clock that night. What wo saw at the Leper Establishment is fully related in another place The steamer left Kalanpapa, Molokai, at 3 p. m.. on the 14th. We had little or no wind during the passage, and the sea was smooth, but there was a strong current setting to the eastward and we did not reach the dock at Honolulu until 11 o'clock. At about 8 o'clock, we got the Ert intimation of the SPLENDID oKMOXSTKATION in he shape of fire works and illumination with which the capital city welcomed the return of the King. This whb a bonfire on Makapuu. As Koko Head came into sight, first one, and then five blazing fires were seen to crown its summit. From Koko to Diamond Head, were ten bonfires, and then as we rounded the Head and Honolulu came ia sight, the numerous lights were quite bewildering, and in the darkness of the night had the appearance of a great city. As we neared the outer buoy, the multiplicity of the lights from boats and bonSre3 on the shore was such that for a time, it was really a puzzle to say where to find the entrance to tho harbor. Here the KUauea was met by the steam launch of the Bvnicia having in tow six boats in two lines with torch lights, the eighty bearers of which gave us three rousing cheers, and this procession escorted us into the passage. In the brief time that elapsed until the dock was reached, it waa difficult to locate the numerous and different illuminations that lit up the shore, from Wa'.kiki to Kewalo and thence all around to Kawa and the Prison. As we got abreast the U. S. S. Ji'-ni'sia. which until now showed only mast-head lights, she. was sud denly brought into boll relief with blazing blue, red and green fires, that burned brilliantly, while two beautiful rockets went up from her deck, and the band on the Kilaueu gave "The Star SpangledBan ner." The dock was one blaze of torches, while rockets and Roman candles were going off in various directions, notably from ijie American bark Ceylon, Capt. Woods, whose rigging was strung with glass lanterns. Looming high above and away in tho rear, was Punchbowl, its highest peak surmounted with a blazing crown, forty fet from the ground, be neath which in letters cf fire were the words Ka Moi. Near the end of the steamship wharf, was an illuminated arch, the colors of which were red, white and blue, aad bearing the words' Welcome to our King, Kalakaua" and Me ka nani 0 Kalakaua." The wharf itself was densely crowded with people, who, as the steamer reache 1 her berth gave ringing cheer3 that might have done honor to Anglo-Saxon threats. And now appeared another novelty. The carriage provided for the occasion had been draped all over with flags, and their Majesties being seated therein, it was drawn by some fifty school-boys through the streets to the Palace, the Princess Lydia and Gov. Dominis following in an open Sedan chair borne on the shoulders of men, whilo ou either side and preceding and following; vrcte numerous torch bearers. From the wharf to Iolani, the streets were one biazs cr light.

In speaking cf the peed of one of our Maud craft, the distance from this harbor to Barber's Point was stated to b 19 mile. The true distance from the Honolulu light-house to the signal 00 the extreme end of Barber's Point, (Laeloa) is la round numbers S3 .500 feet, or a little less than 11 nautical miles, or sixteen statute utiles, the former being rf courne ued for all estimates cf speed at sea. It may be a died here that from the light-house to the sum. mit of Diamond Head, (Leahi) ia just four aca miles; thence to Koko Head (not "Coco") Is six more; thence to Makapuu four more; so that a vessel com ing down the North Molokai Channel sails fifteen uiileo, allowing for the uccasary detour at sea, frm the extreme eart point of this if land to the entrance . of Honolulu harbor. In a report of the rain-fall in Nuuanu valley the Rev. L. Smith's residence was spoken of as shout COO feet above the sea. One hundred and seventy five would probably be nearer the truth. A few fig- urea here may be of intercet. Tho corner of Kukui ' and Nuuanu streets is 12 feet above the swTjfc f School and Nuuauu streets, 40 feet; the second bridge, 77 feet, (the same as Punabou); Judd street about 105; tho eutranee to the Paty premises, 210 feet; Queen Kalama's, 850 feet; and the Pali, 1,220 foot. It will be seen that a COO foot level would strike somewhere ia the neighborhood of the Ilille brand milk rank. Punchbowl Hill furnishrs a good standard of comparison for moderate heights, bring just five hundred feet, lacking one fovt and a half at its highest point. A good standard for a wile's distance on a road is the following : Front the gate of the Catbolio cemetery to tb Pawaa bridge (McCully's corner) is an exact statute tulle. The crater of HaleakaJa (which does not mean " house of the sun ") is repeatedly stated to be twenty-seven miles ia circumference, giving to read ers an idea of a diameter of nine miles. This crater which is shaped like an , or perhaps a moderately crook-necked squaeb, is erven miles In length by ' three in wiJtli. Its entire periphery, including the width of the Kaupo and Koolau "Gaps" where they leave the crater walls, is nineteen miles, the reader ia referred to Prof. Alexander's good map of this celebrated crater, photographic copies of which are Tor sale in town. The above figures are all reliable, being mostly from government survey data. C. J. Lyo.n. Palawka, Maui, April T, 1874. Mn. Editor : Permit me to send you a short ar ticle, taken from the N. V. .Sun, on "Diveiaity vs. Speciality in Agriculture." In my late lecture, de livered by you in Honolulu, I advocated " tyraity in agriculture" as ono of the great desiderates to advance this country in prosperity and Independence, and as tho enclosed article coincides so fully with toy before expressed views, it may bo perhaps of some interest to thoso few who honored my lecture with their presence. Yours, &c, II. Houm:ix. DtvERSiTV vh. Kpkoialtt 1 AnntcfLTtnK. All experience proves that those countries which diversi fy their husbandry to meet their ordinary wants, are more independent and prosperous than thoae that di-peml on a Tew special crops or productions', nud ' are obliged to purchase many of the necessaries of life. A orir crop s'IiJikI to the productive Industry of a country, ia an addition to its thrift and wealth. Instance beet culture in 1'rance aud Germany. This production ia France alona saves ber 50,000,000, and does not interfere with her general agriculture ; in fact, she grows more beef and dairy products, and also more grain than before beet culture commenced. The thrift of England aud Soot land nearljrintains in food a population of some 21,000,000, ujn a leas tillable area than the States of Indiana and Illinois. Would it be possible for them to do this withoat a great diversity of produotsT Suppose that Instead of this great variety of agricultural products, the devo ted herself entirely to the produotiou of animal food, and the dairy, for which her soil is admirably adapt ed, relying upon the exchango of these for all the grains aoed as human food ; it would require all her immense earnings in manufactures to make up the deficiency. California, wbcro gold, the tnessure of all value can be produced, limited cnly by the labor expended, was poor till the began to develop her ag riculture. And now the poorest and most destitute of her population are gathered about her mines. The production of a specialty means poverty and depen dence to tho mass e ugagud in it Cuba exports sugar and buys brc.id. The West Indies, since 1810, havo greatly divereified their productions snd increased the comforts and independence of their population. Their exports of coffee and sugar have fallen off, but their home wealth has increased. It is the surplus after supplying homo wants, not the exports that de termine wealth. Therefore, you must examine the variety cf home production and the borne life of a people, to form a correct conclusion as to their Inde pendence and wealth Live Stock Journal. Wanted An Agricultural Society. Mau, April 2d, 1874. To the Klilor of the J'anifm (bmmrrcial Advertiser: ' It is with much satisfaction that! notice that an : effort is being made to wake the Kotal Agrictl- ' tubal Society into active life; and tincyely ?l that the near future will show that tlTre is faith enough left in the value of systematic eflurt, to ia duoe individuals interested in agriculture here to join together for the purpose of increasing the num ber and value of our products. Without caring one iota for the reasons that caused the old Association to droop and die, I would like to give a few why it should be resuscitated. In the first place there is an opportunity present ed, through the medium of Society correspondence, for imparting much useful information to all in re gard to experiments made in various directions. There are but few people on the islands, more especially in the rural districts, who are not directly and in many cases warmly interested in tree-plant-ing. And yet, beyond certain vague rumors of fine groves of trees here or a yoong plantation there, we know very little what measure cf euccess or failure has been the reward cf those who have tried to in troduce foreign trees on tho islands. We would all like to know how many and what kind cf trees Lave been set out in various districts; what are the best kinds for different localities; what is the best method in practical tree-planting, &c. &c. Again, there are many districts overrun with the " cut worm." What we want to know is what you are going to do about it; when to plant to escape their ravages; and I may add, what ia the most effi cacious, concise and pungent form cf objurgation; ' what the most compact and telling liturgy to be used ' when vikiiing a field of newly sprouted vegetables where they have been at work over night. The Society could also obtain seeds froab and in quantity to much better advantage than individuals can A recent communication on this subject, touch ing upov the practices of certain dealers in seeds in Honolulu, brings this part cf the subject into bold relief. . . - There are many subjects that would come op be fore the Society that would be cf interest though not strictly agricultural. For instance. It Is said that v"" Captain Makee has a Urge number cf Eucalypti on his plantation. Why hot uot send then fsr.fba Lusated IIoset-Eateb, (Mtlithreptf It inula tut) a beautiful bird that builds almost exclusively in these trees. Its nest is pensile aud very handsome; the bird itself is a very pretty one and useful. Other birds, some beasts, net the kind Mr. Waterbonse wants though, few reptiles, eto., would be useful additions to the fauna of the islands. We rant to know also all about Angora Goats; ' and it woald be interesting to know how they get along hers. But I do not think there Is any cca sion for at to enumerate any more wants; they are all comprised la one; want an. active Agricul-1 tural Society. OCCAIIOS AL. "ST 4BM.n.w.,v!.". i,uiw;o ".1 -
