Daily, January It.1) On Saturday, at noon, His Majesty the King received the Eavoy Extraordinary and Minister Plenipotentiary of Japan at Iolani Palace. It is notable that this is the first reception of the kind held within Iolani Palace, and the Japanese Envoy, being of exceptional rank and bearing an autograph letter from His Imperial Highnaes, the Emperor of Japan, was extended the highest courtesies as was fitting and proper, especially in view of the very distinguished reception re cently accorded to our Envoy, Kapena, at the Imperial Palace in Tokio by the Emperor of Japan. A guard, commanded by Major Leleo, waited on the Envoy at Lis residence on Punch bowl street, and escorted him and his suite to the Palace, wLere they arrived precisely at 12 o'clock. The Military Band and a guard of honor were in attendance, nis Majesty, His Majesty's Prime Minister, and the Hon. Godfrey Rhodes, President of the Legislative Assembly, awaited in the grand hall the Envoy's arrival. His Majesty's Chamberlain met the Envoy and suite at the royal seat in their carriage near the foot of the grand stairway. His Excellency the Minister of Foreign Affairs awaited their arrival at the main entrance. His Majesty's Chamber lain, leading the way to the grand hull, an nounced to His Excellency the Minister of Foreign Affairs, who presented to His Majesty, Hi.-. Excellency the Envoy Extraordinary aul Minister Plenipotentiary f His Imperial Ma jesty, the Emperor of Japan, Sugi Magoshichiro, who introduced Tshibashi Masakata, his st-cre-t iry, MicLinori S. Nagasaki, Secretary of the Imperial Honsehould, and Kibo KakiwucLi, an attache to the Corps. The Envoy then ad dressed His Majesty in the Jap me se language, an official translation, received from the.Iapan. se secretary, will be found in the " By Authority " column. After taking leave of His Majesty, at about half-paxt 12 o'clock, the Japanese Minister and suite proceeded to Washington House, accom panied by Colonel Curtis P. Iaukea, who pre sented them to ner Royal Highness Princess Liliuokalani. Owing to indisposition, His Ex. Goveruor Dominis was unable to be present at the reception. The EmK.isxy, accompanied by Colouel Curtis P. Iankea. next proceeded to the residence of Her Royal Highness Princess Likelike at Wai kiki. The Princess accompanied by the Hon.: A. S. Cleghorn, Princess Kaiulani and her Gov erness, Miss Barnes, Miss S. Coney, Miss L. Coney and Miss A. Cleghorn received the Min ister aud his suite. On this auspicious occa sion, the Hon. A. S. Cleghorn wore the decora tion of the Grand Cross of Japan, or the Order of the Rising Sun. After the reception was concluded, the Japanese Minister and suite drove to their residence on Punchbowl street. At 3:30 p. m. the Hon. A. S. Cleghorn returned the called Minister. The Embassy afterwards called upon His Excellency W. M. Gibson, His Excellency R. M. Daggett, Hon. J. H. Wode Louse, Mons. Henrit Freer, and Senor Cana. varo. r?i 1 o ltei"r ' .rrr of the Kilauea Hon from ner uruise in search of the missing Steamer Suez. Atone o'clock yesterday afternoon, the Kilauea Hou was reported passing" Coco Head returning from her cruise in search of the Suez. This early and unexpected return raised the hopes of tixeAnetofss munity in regard A-.ery gradually increas ing vei0-11- whistle blew three times at ..-m. as the steamer was entering the channel. The attendant at the central telephone office was besieged, to all of which he could briefly reply " Kflauea Hou," Ki lauea Hou. The interest displayed on all sides was intense. Hundreds of people flocked to Brewer's wharf to hear the news. On coming alongside the wharf, Captain Sears handed a document to Messrs. Hart well and Atherton which they read with evident feeling. By the kind courtesy of Purser Smith we are enabled to place the following copy of the said document before our readers : Honolulu. January 28. 1383. ( RrisE OF THE STXAMF.B KILAUE HOU IN SEARCH OF THE STEAM tB SUEZ. Left Honolulu Wednesday morning at 1 o'clock. Jannarr 21. 1H3. Searched along the weather side of Jf olnkal, Maui, and Hawaii. Working off and on from within five miles in shore to thirty miles offshore. Proceeded south as far as latitude 20 deg. 10 min., as far east 154 de. 50 min. longi tude, and then made a due north course to longi tuda 154 deg. 50 min. and latitude 22 dcg. 15 min., and then north-west to longitude 155 deg. 30 min. and latitude 22 deg. 30 min., and then working a zig-zag course to Honolulu, pittance run during our absence, 608 miles. Spoke the schooner Anna off Haul. Had seen nothing of the Suez. The first throe days strong easterly trade. Lat day light southerly wind. From the above it will be seen that no tidings have been gleaned of the missing steamer. Unless she should turn up herself, or some vessel bound to Honolulu should have had the good fortune to have fallen in with her, we must remain In total Ignoiance of her fate until the arrival of the next downward P. M. 3. 8. City of New York, on the ISth or 19th proximo. Tim C. R. Bishop will arrange her time so as to arrive in .San Francisco prior to the departure of the mail steamer. Mr. Charles Kohlo, the American Consul at Sydney, is at present ou a visit to the United States. He purposes visiting Washington, tit the request of the Colonial Assembly of New South Wales, to lay before the Department of Stata aud Congress certuiu facts Liih liny bear upon the nioditieatjou of the present tariff, and which will lead to greater commercial inter course between the two conntries. He is of opinion that any alight redaction would tend to make the Australians think the United Htates willing to recognize them, aud would teud to greatly promote commercial relations between the countries. The balance of trade is largely in favor of the United States for large quantities of American merchandise of all descriptions are imported into Australia. The most important matter, however, is a question of subsidy for the Pacific Mail Steamship Company. This compuny is not self-sustaining, but has been kept up bi annual subsidies, grauted by the Colonial Go. eminent of New South Wales and New Zealand. Tho United States has contributed nothing be yuiul an allowance for carrying the mails, and has derived a greater pu cf the benefit accruing, not only the mails and travel to Euglaud going thij way, but it has greatly increased commerce with then. wLich is evidenced by the fact that before the establishment of the line the United States did less than S100.OK) a year of tnsiuess with New South Wales, and now it reaches SOOO.OGO.and it is rapidly growing. TLis being the case, there is very little fear of the preseut line of steamers being discontinued, as the Ha waiian freight and passenger trade forms at iuir portant item in the receipts of the company, it is reasonable to infer the stealers will continue to touch ftt Honolulu each trip. We may dffer at ti3)e with our Wednesday coZitU)porary, but, 1ke the tower of the Tele phone Oajot, ibis establishment has a leauiug towards the Gazette fci all times. The peanul industry pf the (Jailed States is y.laed a $3,000,000 annually. ... ' HONOLTJLmSMS. Daily, Januory 31.) The above title is suggested as a good one to apply to those reports that, day after day, nay, hourly, sometimes, fly around this town and over the group. Just how they originate it would be hard to determine : the uneasiness, doubt and appre hension they engender would be still more diffi cult to estimate ; but as they generally contain an element of possibility, and are shaped large ly by "the wish" that is "father to the thought " they pass from mouth to mouth until they become "common report.' The French have a saying to the effect that "common report is the gazette of fools;" but, here, in Honolulu, we would say " tbe canard of the knave makes victims of the credulous." Such are " Honoluluisms." Reports founded on airy nothings, set in motion by malicious and silly tongues, and spread far and near for those Athenians in our midst who are so eager for " news " that they greedily swallow the pet tiest and clumsiest fabrications of the most irre sponsible and hair brained Paul Prys in the community. . . Honoluluisms are, simply lies. It is nothing that they contradict each other re impossible rest on the authority of no one and are al ien yt of a malicious, derogatory, disheartening nature : in short are the worst kind of gossip they flourish in spite of the mischief they do to our reputation here and abroad for enlightenment and Christianity. There is one remedy, aud but one the con stant exercise of that charity that " thiuketh no evil." When our thousand tongued gossips are busied in reporting the unostentatious charities dispensed here each day ; the words aud deeds of kiudness that are said and done, and the pleasing incidents of public and private life as they occur, then may we relegate to the limbo of abandoned vices our present reproach Honoluluisms. AUSTRALIA AND NEW ZEALAND. On the eve of the departure of the Australian mail we feel ourselves called upon to refer to the trade with these colonies, in the hope that our merchants will become more energetic than they heretofore hare been in fostering a trade which is of such vast importance to our people When it is considered that tho islands in the Southern hemisphere possess a foreign commerce of no less an amount than three hundred and twenty-five millions annually, ninety per cent, oi which has heretofore gone to England, the neces sity of extending our mercantile relations to such a country becomes a duty. our geographical position bnners us seven thousand miles nearer to the colonists than i,Dgiana, ana when we notice that the pro ducts of Ohio, Michigan, Indiana, Iowa, II linois, as well as our Eastern States, an tho&e of California andt-iow1 T-TVL'tjon, are aireauj 1 J olonies iu limited quantities at present, it would be criminal on our part, as representing an important manufacturing cily, such as San Fran cisco, not to foster and extend the relations exist ing between the two countries by all legitimate means within our power. Before the present contract for conveyance of tbe mails expirea, we hope to lea.w.Ve'newal, and nista advertise fortpfto'ntent witb less than a that tfjeiyiortnight ; aIo that the speed of the Tei?e!a be increased so that letters reach'London in thirty-three days from Sydney, as already pointed out in the columns of litis journal. It is gratifying to noticethe manner in which the Auckland Herald refers to the efficiency of the Pacific Mail Company in performing its con truct. Seven years is a pretty good test, and the New Zealanders are evidently well satisfied witb the results heretofore obtained. S. f. Mer chant. Daily, February 1.) THE Legislature of 1878 appropriated $10,000 for the erection of a monument to commemorate the centennial of the dis covery of these Islands by Captain Cook. A committee of the Legislature was author ized to decide upon the character of the monument, and have carried out its design and execution. An ideal bronze statue of Kamehameha I., the founder of the King dom, who was a cotemporary of the dis coverer and had an encounter with him on more than one occasion, was selected as the most appropriate monument to com memorate the event. A statue was design ed and executed by the American artist, T. Ji. Oould in Florence, Italy, and in due time was shipped QU hoard a vessel to b.e transported to Hawaii. The vess.-l oaught fire, burned down and foundered off Port Stanley, Falkland Islands. The statue was insured for a larger amount than the original sum voted for it, which insurance was promptly paid and a replica ordered. While the new statue was in course of con struction an immigrant vessel the Earl of Dalboii3ie,on her voyage to Honolulu touch ed at Tort Stanley for repruits. If er com mander there saw the lroue statue of the Hawaiian hero which had been fished out of tho sea. He bargained with the owners and brought the statue to Honolulu. It was purchased by the committee, and being very slightly damaged, was set up under cover to await some artistic repairs. The new tarue was meanwhile finished and for warded to Glasgow, and thence shipped on the Aberaman, which vessel yesterday entered port, and now we have two statues of the famous conqueror and political organ izer of these Islands. The new and as we hope, perfect one, will be shortly set up on the pedestal prepared for it in front of Alii" olanl Hale. The original, when repaho l, will be sent to some point on the Island of Hawaii Intimately associated with the life ami exploits of Kamehameha the Great. Wk sometimes hear that the remark is made of one or tho other of the weeklies published here " It is thrown into the waste paper basket." The inference in tended to be conveyed beiug that the paper spoken of is not read by the proprietor of the basket alluded to. This thought would naturally overwhelm with deep anguish those who labor to bring forth the weekly budgets of news, and J elabifate editorial articles that grace the j coluum of the papers here, were it not for j the consoling reflection that the above Iiir ! ference is incorrect. Mr. Samuel M. Bryan, tbe gentleman who j may be said to have founded the postal adminia I tration of Japan, and who held the office of Post master General for the past ten years, has left Japan f-r hjs home in the United States. The Japan Gazette says that ."The Falue of the ser vices rendered by Mr. Bryan are, we believe, ! very fully appreciated by the Government, the Mikado having honored Mr.. Bryan with a fare I well audience at which he was pleased to express ' hf approbation of his conduct, having previous ly bestowed upon luio the order of the Rising .

Emtok, The erudition and prolificity oi the Pres correspondent "Maui," alias "Wai liku," alias " Fiat Justitia," alias Lahaina," alias Truthful James," is so great that some of his friends are fearful of an explosion ; and if it should occur on the Sabbath, as he treads the "planed boards" of the new side-walk, his stovepipe will be discovered as a new tail to the comet, and Lis sweet voice would be heard no more "in silent prayer." A Christian is greatly to be envied ; his peace of mind, his resignation and fortitude ; but, more than all, his charity. But your newspaper Christian possesses none of these requisites, else why should he continually growl and find fault, and ask te be delivered from his friends. The latter, douBtless, is easily accomplished, and will not require a posse of policemen, in com mand of our worthy sheriff to effect the desired end. It speaks well for the natives that they bear such alohas to their pastor. May he always be worthy of it, and his lessons and example leave a living imprint upon their soul that will reflect glory upon Lira in that better world ; but this is no reason the foreigners should love their pastor less. Dr. Lane is an earnest, faithful worker in the vineyard of the Lord ; and if a rich harvest is not the result it will not be for lack of love of his people, but for the soil in which, he must delve. : i .

How loudly this smells of the source from which it emanates. That is,; " Gentlemen of the Cabinet, please remember I am one of the independent gentlemen, and will render justice even though the heavens fall.' Perhaps some of the readers will remember a story of an apple caught in an eddy willi. a companion. The night of the 11th found the Press corre spondent weak and worn after the mental labors of the day, but the morning of the 12th dawned npon his refreshed and vigorous mind, and in spired by a " Christian duty,'' he pens another epistle, commencing "Love one another," "Feed my sheep," " Follow me ; " but, before ne gets on a nau-aozen lines, ne gets nwrihTitfnt for more assistance.

Mrs. ; , Honolulu. Dear . I see by the paper that Mr. Smith was expected by the Suez. I hope she is in by this time, but write this to allay any anxiety you might have about her, , I came down on her last trip, and as I am a good sailor and had nothing else to do I examined her oare. fully. . .. She is a splendid vessul, and if nil the ma chinery on board was disabled she would reach port safely as her hull is in very fine condition being of irmi and built in 1874. Mr. E. P. Adams and I were below decks aud admired her great strength, aud we noticed she carried an extra screw in case of accident. I do not know whether that could be put on at sea, although men-of-war havo to do that frequently as part of their drill. , . 1 nccouot for the delay in that tin? old screw has given out, and probably four or five days from San Franci.-sco. The captain would then turn about for San Francisco as there are no conveniences here for repairs, that is, no dock. As the vessel is very heavy and her sails not adequate to her size, being intended as auxili ary only, she would mike slow progress. It would take Ur twenty days to reach San Fran cisco if she hod beeu out five days, which would briug her to port about the 3d of February, aud the passengers would no doubt come down ou the City of New York, leaving on the' 11th of February. The officers of the Suez are all fine seameu, aud the vessel, according to English law carries more bouts thau necessary, so that if the very worst should happen, the passengers will be safe. A'so they have lots of proyislons, as the cargo is principally made up of groceries for the Hono lulu market. Water is condensed onboard. Respectfully yours, J. W Q. Mb. Editor.

KOHALA LETTER Prof. Yarndley is iu the district creating a great and favorable sensation by his geutlemanly deportment and splendid rendition of the violin. We wouU like to keep him with us. We learn that Mr. Nichols has gone to Haina kna to build water ditch through that district, so that all the plantations can Lave the benefit of the water. Kohala's outside plantations need the same thing. Judge Hart's advertisement asking that the R. R. be used to send caue to his mill, and offer ing as he does fine inducements naturally cause some excitement among mill owners. The judge has made money, and as is characteristic of him is willing to divi.le with his planters fairly. We hear that some of the planters of Halawa propose sending their cane to him. . We note the opening of the new drug store at Kaiopihi. It is as pretty as a pink and ought to be well patronized. If there is a law against cruelty to animals iu this kingdom why don't our good and religi ous people see it enforced ? It is terrible to see how animals and more particularly pigs are tortured in bringing to market, being hung by feet to a pack saddle and iu many cases brought ten or fifteen miles. The concert given by Prof. Yarndley on Thursday evening at the Dramatic was a splen did affair though not so well patronized as it should have been. The professor's violin music and singing was very fine, as also was the piano solo by Mrs. Bond, Mrs. Thompson and Miss Taylor. Mrs. Dr. .Thompson's recitation was unusually fine aud iu fact nothing .was left un done that was needed to maka the affair oue uot soon to be forgotten by the hearers. Island Notes. HIU. Mr. Severance, Sheriff of the Island of Hawaii, writes to Marshal 1'arke, that on the 19th January, about noon he ivceiveri ii let ter from Mr. Morrison, manager of the Ha kahiu plantation, with regard to thirty-six Chinamen who had struck work. Six of them assaulted a luna named Smith. War rants were issued for their arrest and exe cuted at 5 p.m. the same day. The police who had the six assailants in charge were attacked by the whole gang of Chinese, and in spite of all that could be done by the police and other people on the plantation, who risked their lives to assist the consta bles, the six prisoners were rescued from the police. . The gang then entrenched them selves iu a large building set aside for the Chinese to the number of one hundred. Mr. Morrison again fa1pn'",eul,r iifeTvfifc1 sent six more men to assist in keeping mat ters quiet until a larger force could be ob tained to capture the whole gang. Mr. Severance then telephoned to Laupahoehoe to the deputy Sheriff, and also to Austin's and Hitchcock's plantations asking for as sistance to carry out the needed work. When ready, the party of police left for Hilo at daybreak the next day. In the meantime the Chinese had become alarmed . . . , . .. pivmtuca iimrtiltih DwyiHI(f temporarily lodged themselves, and about forty of them started for Hilo, intending to deliver themselves up to the authorities. The police force under the command of Sheriff Severance, met them on the road and locked them up. After they had left Hakalau, the police at the plantation ar rested ten others. Next day, the ringleaders were brought before the court ; six of them were convicted f escaping from the police whilst under arrest, and seven for interfer ing with the police while in the discharge of their duties. The balance were ordered to return to the plantation. Mr. Severance adds that they feel thankful that no one was killed r seriously hurt, which was iu a great measure due to the discretion and tact displayed by Mr. Morrison in not per mitting the use of firearms by his men. The value of the telephone cannot be over estimated, in gathering together a large iorce at a short notice to put down auy dis turbance.

Every now aud then we read of some South erner who has achieved wonders in the way of tea growing. The culture of tea is an industry which the Chinese have undertaken with con siderable success. Emboldened by this, and by the great u umbel of tea drinkers in existence, enthusiastic Americans have from time to time made attempts to prodnee tea iu this country. We believe we are right iu saying that the first movement of this kind was made ut Charles ton, S. O. in lSl-V Think of it ! At a period when our industries, which promised certain Huccess in a young aud growing nation, were in their infancy, there were not wanting those who were willing to invest time and money in a scheme of this chimerical nature. There were iron and coal waiting for he miner's pick, for ests waiting for the woodman's axe, fertile acres waiting to be sown with corn aud wheat ; and still, in the face of these natural resources al most commanding to he developed, a few men were trying Jo moke tea grow in South Caro lina. We may infer that the efforts were not crown ed with success, from the fact that no further attempts of this kind were made untill 1848, when a tea plantation on quite au extensive scale was started at Greenville, S. C., but owing to inefficient management, the results proved unsatisfactory and the project was abandoned. In 1838, 10,000 tea plants were seut from China to the United States, aud were distributed through the South by the Agricultural Depart ment. The war coming on put a damper upon these experiments, and until 1S6S little thought was paid to tea raising. Since 18C3 there has been considerable attention given to it, under the fostering guidance of a Commissioner of Agriculture, who had a strong faith in the possi bilities of thes - puny undertakings. We ra told, however, that the present C,mudsstolle' is not inclined U view the industry with much favor, and it seems that tea culture in America is jnst now under a cloud. It will be seen that iu every oue of bese rU. terpiises there has been a fatal '.' if " between, these tea raising enthusiasms Hi fmitioi. of thfeir desires. It U mjrobable that the time is. near at hand when America will produce her own tea, and that the almond-eyed Mongolian will not soon lose his occupation of supplying the country with the article in question is toler ably certain.
