It has become Quite ap parent that a new burying ground must be provided in tbe place of that adjoining the Kawaiabao Church, which is becoming over-crowded. It is suggested tbat the eastern slope of Punchbowl would be a good location for the proposed new cemetery. Special Religious Services. The Fort street Church has voted to hold special religious meet ings on Monday, Wednesday and Friday evenings of each week during the month of February, be ginning next Monday evening. Chistalos and all persons of every name and clasa are invited to attend. II. I. R. M'a ship tbe Iaponelz, Captain Wisb- niakoff, arrived on Tuesday last, from Japan.

Our attention has been called to the fact that many of our coasters neglect to carry the proper lights, either when at anchor or under way, and that when nights are dark we may ye1 hear of some disastrous collision in our waters. The Act of 1864, " For preventing collisions at sea," is full and specific, and it would ba well for those own ing and sailing coasters to read its provisions. A Citt Government. 1 we bad a city govern ment in Honolulu, we would bave tbe streets properly lighted, which would be a better safe guard against burglars, hoodlums, and otber evils than a numerous police ; we might also bave tbe streets straightened and generally kept In good repair; and a great many otber needed improve ments might be made. But then, as the late Sage of Rosebank once said, "Why sir, your Lord Mayor of Honolulu would be the most important men ia the Kingdom!'' Skwino Machines, we observe, are becoming each year more plentifully introduced in families all over tbe islands, lightening tbe labors of tbe 'women folks' In former years, when a family bad obtained a machine it was often a vexatious question where to find a mechanic wbo readily understood bow io repair or to set one " to rights." Now no such difficulty exists, for on Fort street at the different establishments of Mr. Lack and Mr. Iosel, those gentlemen will be found to be experts in repairing an Kinas oi sewing machines, ice price of the Florence has. lately been so much re duced that we hope to see one of these labor sav ing machines ere long in every household. The Jamestown. This vessel, which although be longing to the U. S. Navy, is loaned to tbe city of San Francisco as a training ship, together with the service of the naval officers, arrived at this port on the 20tb, and entered the harbor on the 22 J, having left San Francisco on a cruise for instruction and drill, on the 28th ult. She will remain here about six weeks, and return to San Francisco. Tbe follow ing are the officers : Henry Glass.... E 9 Houston.... J C Burnett.... C F Putnam . . . . R II Townley...

Regular instruction is maintained in the duties of seamanship and in ordinary English branches. At the end of the present cruise, the annual examina tion will be held, and a large number of tbe boys cow on board will be sent to sea in merchant and other vessels. Very good progress has been made in all studies, and tbe discipline of the boys is high ly satisfactory, giving premise of the success i' tha original idea, which was to provide an occupation to poor boys and also to train a better class of seamen for American ships.

Mr. Editor: I would ask of you tbe question if it would Dot bd advisable tbat the answers to the questions proposed In tbe M In tutorial circular, should be published..; I, think it would be of great benefit to many tbat are already residents of these' islands and are desirous to engage la the cultivation of land, if they bad any means of in formation, such as these answers will of courre contain. Yours respectfully ' Ikqcirkr. f ; , ' " ' -. i ! ' Tb ffie Editor of the Pacific Vommrrdnl AivtrtXtrr: Sir : Tbe editor of the Gazette thinks it would be economical for the government to pay tbe Aus tralian steamers a subsidy of 81QO0 per month. He speaks of it as an efficient mail line ; yet letters re ceived by this line cannot be answered by any of Its vessels for some three weeks, and consequently are almost invsrUbly answered by sailing vessels this is also true of letters sent to San Francisco. Thus our efficient mail service is practically half per formed by sailing vessels. Ifow for freight' Let the editor try and ship some bananas by the line, and see what accomodations will be offered bim. As to passengers. Time and again have first class pas sengers from here been put la the steerage or been compelled, besides the passage money of 975, to pay some officer 100 for tbe use of bis room. Tbe line in spite of all this gets near $100,000 a year freight and passenger money, and the $1000 per month would be pin money for somebody. If the $8000 per mooth tbey now get does not satisfy tbem, let the shippers combine to give them more freight, but don't tax tbe people any more. Borne $100,000 cf our' debt now represents subsidies paid, warehouses and wharves built, for this purpose ; and if we are going to psy oa every threat to withdraw tbe liae, we may as well give them the Treasury. Mr. Editor: In common with many of your readers. I approved heartily of your remarks on tbe subject of tbe frightful prevalence of drunken cess, as tbey appeared In your isu of January 6th. It appears moreover tbat tbe tenor of those remarks was so just, while temperate, tbat " tLe galled jade winced," and an apologist for tbe tra duced poliee force, who signs himself No. 67" is it possible they are so numerous T comes out in your last and endeavors to show by argument that it is quite Impossible for tbe police to do tbat lor wnicn tney are osiensiniy commissioned, I. e. execute the law. Mr. Editor, let me ask, has it come to this, tbat our police come squarely be fore the public and declare In so many words, tbat laey 'are powerless to enforce tbe law? Yes, and tbey are apparently quite oblivious tbat hereto is any cause for shame. It is a difficult thing to ferret out" those wbo sell or furnish liquor to Datives, aod therefore it is'nt ferreted out. That's all It amounts to. But, says No. 67 .In behalf of himself and sixty-six others equally efficient, only give us a law which shall declare liquor contraband, as opium is, and then will show you what we will do. Well, what would tbey da? Probably tbey migbt seize and cooOacate a lew bottles cf gia occasionally, but I donbt very much if they would get any nearer than now to ferret ing out" and bringing to punishment tbe law breakers. A London or a New York detective would make short work of the business. No. 1001. i j LATER FOEEION NEWS. By the arrival on Wednesday of the barkentios . A. Falkinburg from Portland, O., and tbe polite ness of Pilot Baboock, we bave received a cony of the Daily Ortgonian of tbe Cth January, two days later than our last advices from San Francisco. The N. Y. Tribune's Washington special cf Jao 2 says : Tbe possibility of a failure to complete tbe electoral count, ana of a consequent new election next fall, continues tp be the leading topic of talk. Leading Democrats reiterate tbeir belief that TilJeo is elected and will be inaugurated, but ia case cf any contest tbey would rather appeal to ballots tbsn bullets, umtr saiu ne ueemea a new election pre- lerabie to the inauguration or two presidents. It is thought by leadiag Republicans that if the Repub lican and Democratic Senators can uoite opoa any method of adjusting the difficulties, sufficient pres sure will be brought upon Democrats of tbe Ilouse to force tbem to accept it. In South Carolina and Louisiana the flection muddle still continues, tui both parties are blus tering. Commodore Vanderlilt'a last words wsre That is a good prayer." Tbe Texas-Pacific Railroad Bill Is considered likely to pass Congress. Tbe latest telegrams are to the effect that tbe plenipotentiaries at Constantinople bave eoooluded to modify tbeir proposals to Turkey. Midbat Pasha appears to be equal to tbe situation. Jan. 4tb, at the Bitting cf tbe conference, Sifeat Pasha read a statement in support of the Turkish counter pro. posals and explaining in detail tbe grounds tor opposing certain proposals of tbe powers of Europe. The plenipotentiaries nevertheless endeavored to induce the Turks tQ accept the proposals on points which bo,ve been rejected by the Porte. Wheo the conference adjourned it was to meet again OS the 8th. Tbe Turkish official journals are very war like. Should there be a final rupture of tbe nego tiations, Roesia icleads to ask the Powers for authority to enforce the proposals of tbe oonfertaee ia their came.

Each nlgbt destrpyed tbe little headway tbat we bad made durllg the day and we found ourselves every morniog, at ibe same rtoiat we were tbe day before. Tbe Chiefs of tie oppo sition felt themselves this lime, on more snlld ground.

Tbe question, eaya be, is not of insur rection.

Tbe vicious, the Igno rant and tbe improvident, or the intelligent cleaves These last are the people wbo should exercise the . right or control. For myself I will say, tbat ' universal suffrage cannot coexist with tbe Moa ' arcby; I do not believe in tbe atablluy cf n Mon archy on n Republican basis, nor tbe stability of a Republican on n Monareklaal basis. It Is necessary, . to choose between lbs tat and upon this point tbe choice of the nation is already auade by an Immense t majority, and so wsll made, tbat tbe most ardent partisans of adverse, suffrage have trot 4 (red at aay lime, to show forth before Ibe people, the abso lute consequences cf tbeir principle." The King closed bis remarks by saving, that if the majority of tbe Delegates should refuse to adopt tbe ertWle under discussion, be should nJjoura tbe Assembly for twenty-four hours for tbe purpose cf considering and consulting upon what measures be should adopt. What would be tbeee measures? asked the opposition. For my owa part I knew what to expect, for ia my frequent conversations with tha King, I bad not failed lo Use Into consideration tbe situation which bad. now presented itself, and tn converse with bim upon this poswibllity. I knew perfectly well, tbat be was received logo te extremi ties if it were necessary, to dissolve tbe convention, to declare tbe Constitution cf lt)2 abrogated and to proclaim a new Constitution. I was of ibe same opinion, though I always Insisted upon Ibe necessity vi ubtiub; paneocs bdiu toe euu ena, or. trying every means cf discussion, by which we Voald dis credit oar adversaries by giving tbem the character of a factious opposition, which tbey endeavored to dissemble under the appearance of an ardent seal for popular rights. Tbe King bad elmUied the strength of my reasons aad for several dsye had wltaessed the discussion In silenoe which be had now broken. I understood immediately that be an looger hoped lo bring tbe convention le our views, and tbat the time for fcotloa appeared to bim to have come. I regretted this se suuch the more sincerely, because apparently we were reaching a eonoloslon: all otber difficulties bad been surmounted and I bad long hoped tbat wo should be able te triumph over this list one, but for two days, I bad cot indulged la these allusions, neither bad ibe Attorney Oeoeral, who, for bis part, bad struggled bravely.
