The vic tim on this occasion was an express driver who had just got out of his vehicle to tie up the horse whilst he breakfasted, when the mare he drives took freight at something and bolted, choosing Fort Street in which to " run a murk." Bringing the wheels of the express into collision with those of a heavily loaded dray just opposite Mr. Waterhouse's new building, she freed herself from all encum brance but the shafts, had a good run along Mer chant street and round again into Messrs. Hack feld t Co.'s yard, where she was pinned and caught.

The Tourists advertise their farewell appearance mis evening at tne music llall ami present a programme that should insure a full house. Among the list of novelties is the api arinue for the first time in this city of Mr. Lsidor Rosi ncraniz who has the reputation of being an excellent per former on the violin. Unsworth and Glover the affable and courteous business managers hope to see the house as crowded as on the occasion of the opening performance, and the rest of the Trotijv earnestly desire that those wishes mav bo fuliilh iK our usuai generous puoiie win undoubtedly give them a " bumper." The performance at the Music Hull Satur day Evening, by tho " Tourists " was well attended and these popular farorites pleased tho audience ns nsual witu their character delineations and secial ties. The programme for the evening consisted of the farce " A Prima Donna for a Night," Glow-r'a " Masks and Faces," ballad singing by Miss Bur ton, a very amusing sketch entitled tho Coming Man," and a comical tragical, nonsensical hkolch introducing Sarony as Sarah Heartburn. This evening there will bo no programme, but on Satur day evening next .May 27, a double grand hill will be presented, on the farewell appearance of tho troupe. There were three runaways on Monday. Mrs. Co ney and her daughter Mrs. Low were driving up Beretania street when the horse bolted. Tho buggy was over-turned at tho corner of Punchbowl street and both ladies thrown out. Mrs. Coney suffered a dislocation of the shoulder. Mrs. Levy fortunate ly escaped with a few bruises Mr. J. O. Havsel den left his horse aud buggy' standing at Messrs. E. O. Hall fc Son's corner, and the horse being frightened by a bullock team passing, turned round and in doing so upset the buggy, which he immedi ately proceeded to kick to pieces J The third acci dent was to an express. TheTTolNe ran away and capsized and smashed the carriage at tho corner of Richard and Beretania streets no one hurt. The diplomatic corps, His Ex. James M. Comly Minister Resident of the United States; Hon. J.H. Wodehonse, H.B.M. Commissioner ; and Monsieur Feer, Commissioner of the Republic of France, called at the Foreign Office on Monday to present their respects to His Ex. Mr. Gibson, the new Min ister of Foreign Affairs. Gentlemen of the Consu lar corps: F. A. Schaefer, Esq., Consul of Italy; D. A. McKinley, Esq., Consul of the United SUtc's; J. C, Glade, Esq., Imperial German Consul ; H. F. Glade, Esq., Acting Consul for Austra-Hungary; J. F. Hackfeld, Esq., Imperial Russian Vice-Consul; R. W. Laine, Esq., Consul for Mexico, tendered their congratulations to the now Ministers. Also Col. C. Spreckels, and many other gentlemen in official and business circles called upon His Excel lency at the Foreign Office, and on his colleagues to present their congratulations. m Ok the evening of 13th inst., two very interesting articles were added to the contents of tho Loan Ex hibition. These were two series of photographs from the studio of Messrs. J. Williams t Co. Ono of these contained nine different pictures of th ladies who had taken part in that pretty Exhibition "tho Fan Drill," which had been given in tho Ex hibition on the previous evening. Theno ladies were so polite as to let Mr. mniams take various pictures, illustrating at the same time their own graces and some of the prettiest features of the ' Drill." Aa already stated nine different picture were taken at the time by Mr. Williams, vet, with quite remarkabla expedition, the whole were printed, mounted, artistically ground in a hand some frame, and put in their places in the Exhibi tion by an early hour the same evening. Tho largest of these pictures includes eleven figures, the others are of smaller groups. Tho picturesque costume adopted, and the graceful positions as sumed, render the pictures peculiarly pleasing ; and as they include a number of tho most admired young ladies of our city, Mr. Williams will Ih: gind to sec all the young men who aro, or ought to 1:, their devoted slaves, at his studio, where they may worship these images of the adored at their leisure. The other group exhibited was entitled "Progres sive Hawaiians," and is a long scries of portraits of Hawaiian babies of white parentage. It was a very prettv idea to bring together this "Baby Show," which is a series of very succcsssul pictures. The group is still to be seen at tho Studio in Fort street, where all mothers may spend a pleanant half-hour in criticism ou their neighbours' trea sures, and comparison of them with their own. The Melbourne "Argus" thus refers to our old friend the horse Commodore, formerly the proM.rty of Mr. H. J. Agnew, of this city. The extract is taken from an account ofan exhibition of trotting horse on the new course at Elsternwick near Melbourne: " The four imported American trotting stallion. Boccaccio, Vermont Junior. Startle, and Young Giant, were brought out. Boccaccio went round the track in grand style, finishing up with a fiiK spurt, in which he performed so grandly that the spectators cheered him heartily. Startle, a very handsome dark brown horse, was sent along for a short distance, and he in turn was well el ice red. After these celebrities had leen put throngh their paces, the Australian-bred trotters. Captain Dear born, Native Cat, Wanderer, and Brown Hawk, were sent round the course. Wanderer and Brown Hawk performing very well. The imported Ameri can trotters, unacr anu alter ftcott ni a steady trot, and to wind up, Mr. Robins brought out his famous pair of American trotters, Commo dore and Defiance. The former, who was driven by Lis owner, is a handsome bay, more like an English thoroughbred than the usual type of American trotters. The pair were taken steadily along the track, and then Commodore was h-tont at his lst pace. For the first time most of tho.-e on the ground saw what a really high-class Ameri can trotter was like. As the horse flew past the stand the spectators greeted him with a ringing cheer of approbation. Defiance is a grand old horse, but he was not so well handled as Commo dore, and consequently did not show to so much advantage." What the People Say.

Mr. Editor, I noticed a few days ugo that a petition was presented to the Legislature from Kohala, sipped by some of my over-zealous friends, praying for my appointment to the posi tion of Government physician in that locality. I wish, niinply to say that the petition was pre sented without my knowledge, that I would not, under any circumstances, accept the appoint ment ; aud further, that Dr. Thompson, wh has served that district faithfully for seven years', is a thoroughly competent physician, and enjoys the fullest confidence of the people. t .

The system so common among Hawaiian's of adopting tho children of other pooplo leads occa sionally to complications. Deputy Marshal Dayton was occupied ou Monday in the endeavor to settle amicably a dispute arising from a case of this sort. A mother claiiio-d her child. 'which had, with the consent of both parents, been brought up by others, for a lengthened period. Neith'-r th child nor the woman who adopted it were Milling that tho former should go back, li ith women had lost their husbands and married ii'-chiii since tho adoption of the child. A mother in hiicIi a c:isi 1ms certain le gal rights, which it would l well if the course of conduct sic- has pursued in letting another brinjf up her child should im'ke ab-i-dutely void, unless iruprojior conduct on the pal t of I he patrons should bo shown. An cr.tra ordinary amount of rumor prevailed in the town during the early part of the week as to alleged appointments that li.ivu been ruadti to posts under Government, at the expense, of course, of turning out their prci-cai iiicuniU-ritw, We have warrant for saying that thc;e rumors arc without truth. They are citle r inventions of those who di-like the present Ministers, or of thoso who want to get their friends in I i billets, or possibly of idle fonsrrsei merely. Ministers have neither discussed nor contemplated cither tho rhunes njxiken of or any others. Mohave f-rcat satisfaction in -being assured that the views of Ministers are not to mako any removals from o"!i.-e unless good reasons dic tate the necessity, l.cav. o forhi 1 that the "Jsjwiils" System, against which tho peoph; of the United States ui'o now- revolting ho:tld tal e any root here! We referred in our issue of May 2d, to what ap peared to be ft curio, si ty iii the way of ap)eala made by a Chinaman namad Jvan On, in tho hope of ob'aining a tuitiga'ion of the sentence, passed on him for selling liquor, by the District Justice atKapaa. Enquiry Inn elicited tho fact that ofll cial information on the subject received in town was defective in not specifying that the man had lieen sentenced to three months' imprisonment as . well as the tine of 3rt which he paid. Kan On objects to t lie double punishment ; like tho negro wiio'-e master when about to administer a Hogging; preceded it by a lung lecture drawing from las victim the pathetic uppi-al: "lassa, if floggoe, floggee ; if pi t achee, preachoe ; brit no floggoe and prcachee too." lie is of opinion too, that the law docs not allow both fine and imprisonment, but only leaves with the magistrate uu option as to. which ho shall indict. If tho ultimate decision in his case should show that this is the state of th& law, it should Ik- amended. Experience seems to. show that a line is not an adequate punishment for the offence because it is not a deterrent, yet tho magistrate can hardly avoid in-posing lines in. these cases, because tho only provision for reward ing the person who detects tho olfolioe IH tho rulfl which allows him half tho line,
