KEALAKEKUA BA Y II A WAIL THE HAWAIIAN ISLANDS ARE noted the world over for their unrivaled salubrity of climate. Certain localities in the group are espec ially favored in this way. The District of Kona, cn the leeward side of Hawaii, has long been famed as a place of resort for invalids with bronchital, or lung diseases. With its pure and mild atmosphere, with its absolute freedom from storms or high winds, with its porous soil which, with all its rich vegetation, retains no dampness and yields no malaria, and with an oo varying temperature that of the American or Southern European June ALL THE YEAR ROUND, the climate of Kona is one of the healthiest and most luxurious on tbe globe. Tbe undersigned, at ins nouse at naawaioa.a boose une- qualed in the district for size, cleanliness, commodiousness, and thoroughness of furnishing, is prepared to give boarders excellent rooms ana ail obtainable comforts in the way of diet, THERE ARE FRESH WATER BATHS on the premises, and fine sea bathing within a ahort distance.

A suit for separation and ali mony under the above title has been ia progress before Mr. Justice Judd during tbe past fortnight, aud bus attracted considerable interest, both on account of the parties being well known and from the fact that able counsel were employed on both sides, J. M. Davidson, Esq. for tbe petitioner and His Ex. A. S. Hartwell for the respondent. A de cision will be reached, it is expected, this morn- tog- 9 i Amkkicjk Relikf Find. This very useful insti tution ia not in as flourishing circumstances as we could wish and as it ought to be. The report of the Treasurer, A. J. Cartwright, Esq., at tbe an nual meeting held on tbe 22d inet., shows that the entire receipts for tbe year were $1163.96, of which $795.75 had been expended in relief, and $7 for expenses, leaving a balance of $361.21 ou hand. There are four persons now receiving re lief Irom the fund, to tbe amount of 19,40 per week in the aggregate. The annual subscription to the fund is only six dollars, and it is hoped that American citizens throughout the islands will take this as a per.-onal appeal to them to come up to the help of this worthy charity the American Relief Fund. uk Volcano. Tbe Kilauea on Sunday brought very exciting accounts of a fresh and appar- mtly large outbreak of Madam Pele on Mauna Loa, and quite a number of excursionists took pas sage on Tuesday to inspect the seventh wonder of the world. The light was first seen from Hilo on the night of tbe 14th, apparently in tbe old pit crater of Mokuaweoweo, and the opinion was ex pressed by some tbat there was a flow of lava on the west side of Mauna Loa. The schooners Prince and Annie, which arrived from Kona and Kau during tbe week, do not however report any erup tion, and it may prove that tbe fire is confined to the summit crater. - Bari from X Bark Iolam. This new vessel, which arrived Newcastle-on-Tyne on Thursday last is a fine ipecimen of naval architecture of 862 tons register, itaunch and strong as wood and iron can make ter, and withal very handsomely put together. fner cabin accommodations are very ample, and the ornamental wood-work is really splendid, equal in design and finish to that of a first-class passenger ship, while the accommodations for the crew, in a bouse on deck, are roomy, airy and clean to a degree that would satisfy tbe greatest stickler for " sailor's rights." She was built near Bremen ia 1876, for her owners, Messrs. II. Hack feld Co., for the Pacific trade, and bails from Honolulu. She will, after discharging cargo, pro ceed hence to San Francisco to partly load with wheat, returning here to finish loading for Europe. Dcrixo the night from Monday to Tuesday, what may be supposed to have been! the last Kona storm of the season, took leave of Honolulu in quite an amiable way. The streets had received during the night a refreshing sprinkling of rain which laid th dust for several days, and hardened the streets for good traveling; a few awnings having served for a long while their purposes, (one of which belonged to the "Old Corner." Mr. Nolte's) were rather rudely torn from their plsces and purloined by th storm ; tbe crop of young mangoes received a judi cious thinning out; and altogether the kona acted in a very lovely manner. We are now entering upon the season when we may expect a daily advance in temperature and perhaps drought, and when the days come in which the lean and tbe bony rejoice with a malicious grin over the fat. How we shall sigh for another kona. Tbe stormy night was fol lowed by a beautiful morning, such as only can be found here. Tbe wind came from the northward as cool aud soft and delicious as a virgin's breath, and the harbor, whero but a few hoar before the waves dashed against the wharves and the sides cf tbe coasters and ships in rude shocks, looked as smooth and placid, toying with tbe beams of the sun as be rose over the mountains, as if no storm had ever ruffled its surface. The vessels, large and small, three-masted and one-masted, bad all their sails hobted for drying, as if rejoicing to be freed from the long blockade of southerly winds, and indeed the harbor presented an unusually bright appearance. The unlucky schooner tbat had been nearly twice drowned and twice resuscitated, was towed to the ship-yard looking as saucy as when she started on her ill-fated trip. Tbe new schooner Catarina lsid at the wharf, taking on board freight for ber first voyage on ber regular route to the landing places on the other side of this island. Painted white and ber new coat shining in the sun as bright as new paint could make her, with ber neat sails hoisted up, she looked indeed the little queen of our island fleet Her broad beam promises ample accommodations, and tbe ease and grace with which she sat cn tha water with a full load on board, gave ample evidence that she never can be over-loaded. After a few tarns in the harbor to show herself, like a very coquette, started off on her first voyage, and we have no hesi tation in predicting that she will play her part well in the future home-trade of Oabq.

Ali said that be bad driven out of an unfenced field, be longing to another individual of the Celestial breed, an ox with immense born, several times, when the ox with the big horns made for bim and be defended himself , with a plantation hoe. The truth however was not ia Ali, and the ox with immense horns was in reality an old gentle muley milch cow without the least sign of a born, tbe only horns that All might have seen being perhaps bis own tail swinging in bis excitement around , Lis bead, and tbe self defence consisted ia burying a beavy and sharp plantation boe, to which the bair still adhered, three times into the poor beast below tbe hip. All was to our great regret sentenced to only two months imprisonment We regret that His Honor did not call it six months. and we most earnestly hope tbat in every case of wanton cruelty to poor beasts tbe Court will insist on the 'full extent of tbe law. ' Kaikona (w.) bad been arrested for deserting ber Celestial husband, and returned with bim hand in hand. - This desert ing Caktlial husbands by native women is becoming a very frequent offence, and we begin to entertain the opinion that there is something not sufficiently distinct In the marriage service. We 'would most disinterestedly advise tbat the words " and cling to your husband" be changed into tbe words "and cling, to your husband' tail," rSS something mora distinct, specific and easily to be understood by the native mind, as the Celestial husbands as a general ity are rather lean and slippery, wearing clothes rnuoh too wide for a woman to cling to under provo cations to slide. Sam Kunikahi, gross cheat, sent to Supreme Court Along, Celestial, fined $75.00 and costs for furnishing liquor to natives. Aloi, Ahoi, Afoi, Ayong or Allrong, Awai or Awry were arrested for affray and two of the, party were fined $10.00 eaofa. but the Celestial names made such a profound con fusion that it is doubtful if Aloi is Afoi or Ahoi or AH wrong. '' perhaps the contending parties were fined, perhaps the witnesses or lookers on. Hard to decide. Me. Editor: There baa lately been an attempt apparently to make the delivery of mail matter and newspapers an offence against the observance of th Sabbath. I could not well sar whether the Saddu. cees, or tbe Scribes, or tbe Pharisees, had any thing to do with it, but to come to a correct decision of this- very serious and grave matter, it appears (0 me the best plan to follow tbe practice cf lawyers and look for precedents, and if no precedents can be found to let the matter rest, until a precedes t is actually found. Neither tbe book of Genesis, nor Exodus, nor tbe Song of Soloraon, says aoy thing aboat tbe Post' office Department of the olden, very olden time indeed, and it may therefore be concluded that a Postmaster or Postmaster-General, mail-rider and mail bags, are creatures created a long while after fish and fowl and the creatares cf tbe sea were made. Furthermore, ilia convincing proof tbalMose bad no Poet-office established for bis correspondence itb Pharaoh, or for the correspondence cf bis people with the Egyptians, a bo undoubtedly held a vast amount of slow notes for the borrowed gold and silver, which the departing Israelites forgot to pay for. It is also a tact tolerably well established that Solomon had nominated no Post master in the City of Jerusalem, otherwise from (be beavy cor. respondence which tbe wise King must have car ried on with his numerous wives and sweethearts. undoubtedly a few would by this time have beep found in the excavation where the Post office building might have been situated, aa every one is aware that however highly love letters may be valued by tbe respective parlies, Post masters wt mighty little value cn tbem. The historian Josepbus also totally ignores the Post office of Jerusalem, but perhaps if it existed the Scribes and Pharisees did not call for their letters, checks or exchanges on toe tabbaifr : day, and waited patiently until the Postmaster General opened bis delivery window at tbe third Lour cf the next day; but as it is but natural and really human to sup pose tbat the Scribes ant Pharisees of Jerusalem were as anxious to get their mail matter and qews papers from Rome and Babylon and Ninr. veh as those of Honolulu, I propose to let th matter rest and go on as usual until a precedent establishes a law.
