Daniel Smith. Death ofl ITorbert, Esq. It is seldom that we are called upon to record a death in this community, -which might so appropri ately be termed a public loss, as that of Linton L. Torbert, which occurred at his residence in this city on Thursday afternoon last. Cut down when he had just reached the prime of life, full of vigor and en ergy, with flattering promises of future usefulness and success in the battle of life, surrounded by a happy family and troops of friends, his death indeed creates a void in the community. He had resided on the islands some twenty-six years, a large portion of the time on Maui, where he was one of the pioneers in the business of sugar planting, and was noted for his enterprise and industry. He was at one time owner of the land which now constitutes the Makee plantation, then a cattle ranch, upon which he erected no less than sixteen miles of stone wall, much of which can be seen to this day. In the va rious enterprises in which he has since engaged, Mr. Torbert has displayed the same characteristics of indomitable energy, and has invariably borne a high character for probity and moral principle. He was about 65 years of age at the time of his decease, and was a native of Newtown, Bucks County, Pa. Yesterday, the flags on the shipping and generally throughout the city were displayed at halfmast in respect to his memory. The funeral, which took place yesterday afternoon, was very numerously attended by the residents, on foot and in carriages. Mr. Torbert was a member in high standing of the Order of Free Masons, which body took charge of the funeral ceremonies. The procession was as fol lows : First the Order of Good Templars (Mr. Torbert was an active member of Ultima Thule Lodge, No. 1) ; the Blue Lodges of Masons ; Honolulu Royal Arch Masons ; the Commandery of Knights Templar ; the Hearse ; Mourners and citizens gener ally in carrhges. At the grave the beautiful and impressive service of Masonic Knighthood was read by Prelate A. Mcintosh, and the last sad tribute of respect having been thus dutifully paid, the clods of the valley closod over all that was mortal of our true friend and brother. NOTES OF THE WEEK. GET We are indebted to Purser M. C. Robinson of the City of Adelaide for memoranda of freight and passengers. The steamship Albion, from Sydney via Fiji is due. She will leave for San Francisco within 86 hours of arrival, taking a mail. E" The steamer for Sydney via Fiji, which ar rived Wednesday noon. Laving completed coaling and discharge and loading of freight, sailed on Thursday at 5.30 p. m. Fire on Molokai. We lenrn that a fire occurred at Kaunakakai on Monday last, which destroyed the sea-side residence of His Majesty. No particulars have come to hand. The steamship Moses Taylor will be due from San Francisco with one week later dates, on Friday or Saturday next ; and the Nebraska from Sydney and New Zealand, about the same date. " Honest Kanakas." A newly arrived stranger, walking along Fort street the other evening, stumbled over a pile of grind-stones in front of a hardware store. "See here," exclaimed he to his companion, " what honest people these kanakas must be, when grind-stones can be left on the sidewalk all night, with nobody to watch them ! " Sad Accident at Hilo. We are pained to hear from Hilo of the death by drowning of an infant son of R A. Lyman, Esq. on the 5th inist. The child it appears was left alone for a snort time, when it strayed into the bath-house, where it was found in the tub quite dead. It is supposed that the child in playing about the tub, lost its balance, and fell in. It was about two years old. A Naturalist Coming. According to "JValure," Mr. Q. R. Crotch proceeds in the autumn to the United States, on his way to the Sandwich Islands, New Zealand, Australia, and New Guinea, with the intention of making collections of specimens in nat ural history. This research is to be prosecuted un der the auspices of the University of Cambridge, which has granted 200 pounds sterling from the Worts' Fund for that purpose. Depdtt Clerk Supreme. Court. We note that Mr. J. E. Barnard has been appointed by the Justices to the office of Deputy Clerk of the Supreme Court. Mr. Barnard, it will be remembered, held the office of Chief Clerk for a long period, previous to his go ing to the Colonies to reside several years ago. He was deservedly popular in that position, with the bench, the bar and the publie, and his business qual ifications, knowledge of routine, and we may add, his gentlemanly manners, make him a valuable ac quisition to the staff of the Court House. Eruption on Hawaii. From Mr. W. T. Martin, who arrived from Kau, Hawaii,' on the 13th inst.. we learn that on the night of Monday the 7th, resi dents of Keaiwa, (a place inland) heard a dull, heavy report from Mauna Loa, something similar to that accompanying the eruption of 1868. On the following night, a bright light was seen on the mountain, on the side toward Kona, apparently in the neighbor hood of the great flow of 1859, which ran down to Kiholo. The light was quite plainly visible from Waiohina in Kau. By return of the steamer this morniirg we may hear further particulars. I morniirg turbcck Island. The English Company which has held possession of this Island for some ten years past, is at length making movements towards ship ping the stores of superior guano which are there de posited. The British schooner Mary Cumxings, which arrived here on the 9th instant from the is land, in search of laborers, sailed yesterday on her return, having shipped about 20 Hawaiiana for one year. The supply of guano is said to be very large and of superior quality. The island lies a little to the south of the line, and being in nearly the same parallel of longitude with these islands, the passage between it and Honolulu can generally be made with a leading wind both ways. This, together with the fact that we are but ten days sail from San Francisco, whence telegraphic communication can be had with the Company in London, will doubtless ensure the making of Honolulu a place of call for ships bound to Sturbuck's, and for procuring supplies. , The Republican Standard of New Bedford, pub lishes entire our leading article of J uly 1st, un der the heading of "Withdrawal of the Whaling Fleet," to which it adds the following comment : "Our Island friends need not be worried, aa the whal era will probably continue to visit tbem. Our men than to have made no such arrangements as indicated above." Our Btatemen ta as to the arrangements for mak ing San Fiuncisco tbe rendezvous of the whalers were founded upon declarations made by parties here of lett ere received from New Bedford to that effect; and farther, upon a statement apparently corroborative in the Sacramento papers, that the first of a number of tank cars, lor transporting whale oil over tbe Pacific Railroad, had arrived. The Standard, however, being published in the city of blubber" itself, should know whereof it speaks. New Groceries. We beg to call attention to the advertisement of a new and extensive assortment of groceries soon to arrive to Mr. nenry May, Fort street. Among them it will be noticed are some very choice articles of French goods imported via England. This description of family luxuries have been until recently beyond the reach of the importer owing to the late war having interrupted commerce and trade. . The Lcnaulo. The ketch Lunalilo, Capt. Henry English, which was dispatched by the Government in May last to return some sixty laborers to their homes on the Eouthern islands, returned on Tuesday last, having been absent 53 days. She was unsuc cessful in obtaining any of the islanders to return, on account, as we are informed of the opposition of the chiefs to the emigration of their people. The dissat isfaction expressed by some of them when they left here, may have something to do with this opposition. Fireman's Funeral. The Fire Department turned out on Monday last to attend the funeral of the late John P. Booth. The deceased was also a member of the Order of Good Templars, the Lodges of which marched in the procession. We have heard severe comments on the insulting manner in which the Tem perance organizations were treated by the officer of the Fire Department having the funeral in charge, and have received communications on the subject, but defer their publication for the present. Presentation. Last Monday, His Ex. the Minis ter of the Interior presented to Mr. George Roberts, chief Engineer of the steamer Kilauta, a fine gold chronometer watch, with all the latest improvements, as a testimonial from the Hawaiian Government of their appreciation of his valuable services on the oc casion of the grounding of the steamer at Molokai, last April. The following is the inscription on the case, neatly engraved by Mr. Thos. G. Thrum : To George Robkbts, from lUe Hawaiian Government, for services rendered the gtr. Kilauea on the evening of April 12th, 187 1. In Equity. An interesting case, involving the title to several thousand dollars worth of real estate in this city, was on Thursday last submitted to Mr. Justice Hartwell, in Chambers. The title of the case is Kapa, widow and others, relations of the late Capt. Akoni, vs. W. L. Moehonua, and the action is for the purpose of setting aside, on ground of fraud, of a deed from Akoni to Moehonua, dated in 1865. It was proved during the trial, on the part of plaint iffs, that in 1867, prior to the death of Akoni, Moe honua advertised himself as agent for the lease of all lands owned by the former, and that no one ever heard of the alleged deed until subsequent to his death. Messrs. Judd and Jones and Davis for plain tiffs ; R. H. Stanley for defendants. Improved Centrifugal Machines. For the bene fit of a former rssideut and pleasant old-time acquain tance in the days of flour mills and the infancy of machine shops in Honolulu, we copy the following " by authority" notice from the last Gazette: Be it remembered, that on the 31st day of J uly, in the year 1871, letters patent, for the term of ten years, were issued with the approval of His Majesty tbe King to David Mc Volley tveston, oi uoston, in Massachusetts, being one of the United States of America, for improvements in Centrifugal Machines for separating Liquid from Solid Matters, accord ing to the claim, specifications and model which have been deposited in this Department. All persons are hereby required to take notice of this patent, and are warned not to infringe upon the rights of the paten tee. Ferd. W. Hutchison. Minister of the Interior. Interior Office, August 14th, 1871. Circuit Court for Kauai. The August Term of the Circuit Court for the Fourth Judicial Circuit, was duly opened at Nawiliwili, on the Island of Kauai, on Tuesday the 1st inataDt, and adjourned on the 9th, His Honor, Chief Justice Allen, presid ing, assisted by the Hon.

The old sailor traditioV . that on Saturday night an extra allowance!rriL. is to be partaken of, in which to toast " eweti1; t and wives,' and that extra license is to be :Jsn generally, seems to have got ingrained into the character of some people in Honolulu. For there are more locked up on that night than in all the rest of the week. Last Monday, some three or four natives were tried in the Police Court for being drunk, noisy and mischievous in the streets on the previous Saturday night One smashed an iron pot and a looking glass, belonging to a Chinaman, out of pare cussedness," and another punched a con stable who tried to arrest the " pot-breaker," and a third he was a powerful looking fellow picked the constable up and threw him over a fence. But as sistance coming they were all arrested, locked up, fined, and made to pay the damages. All confessed to having been drunk ; where could they have got the liquor? On Thursday, an instance was shown of the feeling of China-phobia which is so prevalent among youngsters of this as well as more highly civilized countries. A celestial cake-seller, out on the Palama road, was nailed by some native boys, who bargained for a real's worth of cakes. These they proceeded to munch, and when John asked for the pay, they told him to come again on Monday "I'll owe you for these," said Kanio, the spokes man. John thereupon got angry and laid hold of Kanio, and a scuffle ensued in which John got worsted and a bloody nose, besides having one eye pat in mourning. He was an extremely dilapidated looking specimen of a celestial when be made his appearance for a warrant. It ended in Kanio being fined $7, with $3.25 costs. The Court remarked that it was high time the lively youths about town were taught that a Chinaman had rights which they were bound to respect, EST The eruption on Maunaloa, in the neighbor hood of the flow of 1859, showed a bright light at night from Waimea, and was seen from Kona. G7 The native who was accidentally shot at La baina, died yesterday. The ball had flattened against his jaw-bone. His death was supposed to have been hurried by an encounter amounting to an assault, by another native, who was fined therefor S30. A coroner's inquest was sitting on the case when the steamer left. Delay or the Mails. On the arrival of the Ct7y of Adelaide on Wednesday, but one bag of mail mat ter was sent on shore at first, and it was stated that there was no more on board. About two hours later however, several more bags of mail were sent to tbe office, having been discovered on board. It was stat ed that the fault lay with the Post Office officials at San Francisco, they having asked for a receipt for but one bag.. This may be so, but it appears singular however, that the mail agent on board the steamer should not have discovered, duriig the eight days passage to this port the presence of more than one bag for Honolulu among the mail matter in bis charge. As it was, the delay in delivering letters, &c. caused some inconvenience, and loud complaints were heard at the supposed refusal or neglect of the San Fran cisco Post Master to send our mails by this particular ship. i The Storm on Hawaii. The late gale was re ported to have been very destructive in Kohala. About 100 houses are said to be blown down or dam aged, among the rest, the engine and other houses at tbe Kohala plantation. It was severely felt in Waipio and Hamakua. A private letter from Waipio, dated the 16th, says : We have had an awful time here last week. On Wednesday morning, about 7 or 8 o'clock it com menced to blow and it lasted for about an hour aud a half, blowing right down the valley. There are 28 booses blown clean away and as mauy more partially destroyed. Stiles' new bouse was blown down and all split up ; the only damage I received was my fences being blown down and the cook house cap sized. Tlcre is hardly a tree or bush of any kind standing in the valley. It has put a complete stop to all business here for the present" Abetter from Talialnn,--tlio Uritorm tlie fegliootlriK. Editor Commercial : This village by the sound ing sea," is inexpressibly dull, just at present The two mills that recently were turning out sugar so rapidly and of such excellent quality, are now silent, and all the planters have to do is to look on and wait patiently, while the cane grows for tbe next grinding, which it is doing fairly. The rain of last Weduesday the 9th inst, was however, a de cided break in the monotony. It commenced lightly on Tuesday night, with a gentle breeze, up trf day light on Wednesday, when the rain began to pour down faster and heavier, while the wind increased in proportion, from tbe westward, veering round to all points, becoming a perfect hurricane, thrash ing and crashing among the trees and shrubbery, while the streams and Gsbponds ran over and the land was flooded. Such a storm bos seldom been known in the experience of the oldest residents of Lahaina. It continued through tbe entire day into tbe night, the wind blowing in squalls, uprooting and prostrating numerous breadfruit, cocoanut and ornamental trees. Considerable damage was done to buildings, many being in purt or wholly un roofed, and one being entirely blown to tbe ground, near the prison, while pretty much every bouse on the low ground was flooded. As was expected, a great deal of damage is re ported from other parts of the islands. The ac counts that have come to hand are necessarily im perfect, but it would appear that East Maul suffered terribly from tbe wind and rain. At Wailuku, the stream rose in an incredibly short space of time, carrying away one bridge and damaging unotber. At Corn well's plantation, tbe roof of the dwelling house was undergoing repairs, when the rain came suddenly down and flooded tbe house, spoiling everything. At Ulupalakua, Capt. Makee's planta tion suffered severely. Tbe severity of tbe gale came on as with us at Lahaina, between ten and eleven in the forenoon, and it blew with such force that strong men could not keep their feet at times. Besides blowing down a large number of valuable trees which have been planted and nursed with care and expense, the mill and engine bouse, sugar house, cook bouse, and laborers' quarters were prostrated. And so it has been wherever heard from on East Maui, bouses blown down or unroofed, Gelds flooded and cane destroyed. This has truly been the severest storm in the recollection of any one. native or foreign, aud involves a sad amount of loss upon tbe industry of the country, one which it will take long to repair. From liana I bear that the schooner Kinau was driven on Bhore by tbe gale, but it is reported that she is not seriously injured. A case of accidental shooting occurred here on Saturday tbe 12th inst. about which you have probably beard ere this. Some natives were col lected in J. W. Girwin's store on tbe beach, while the clerk, a balf-caste named Samuel Nowlein, was showing tbem a revolver. Some of the natives spoke disparagingly of the fire-arm, when Nowlein, pointing it at one of tne party named Kooumauma, snapped it, when it went off, the ball striking just below the eye. The man fell immediately, and there was of course great excitement Nowlein says that be did not know tbe pistol was loaded, but Mr. Girwin states that he himself bad loaded it the day before, but forgot to put it out of tbe way. A great piece of carelessness surely. The poor native is not killed, but it will be a wonder il he survives the terrible wound. There is a good deal of talk and dissatisfaction among tbe natives here because Nowlein was not arrested and the matter examined into legally.
