A STOLEN WATCH RESTORED. The police at Tahiti seem to be active and expert at discovering and recovering stolen propeity, as will appear from the following: Capt. John Ross, when at Tahiti recently, in the bark Kalakaua, lost a valua ble gold watch, which was stolen from his clothing. The captain gave infoimaticn to tho Chief of Police, and received the assurance that the property would be restored, or its value given in its stead. By II. B. M. S. Hyacinth Capt. Rots received a letter from the Hawaiian Consul, M. Cognet, at Tahiti, in forming that his watch had been found, and was sent to him by the same vessel, through the Minister of Foreign affairs. Capt. Ross now has the watch in his possession. It was fortunate for him that his watch was not stolen in Honolulu, or the chances aie he would never have seen it again. Our police are not so expert at catching thieves and recovering stolen propeitj'. SUPREME COURT-IN CHAMBERS. HE ORE niCKERTON J. Friday, Dec. 14th. In probate. Estate Lorenzo Mar chant, deceased. F.

Laa, tho native who was arrested on tho 10th at the Board of Health ofllcc by Ofllccr Kingsley with a loaded pistol in his hand was in the Police Court this morning for trial. Ho was charged with carrying a deadly weapon, to wit: a pistol. He pleaded not suilty. Tho first witness was Kingsley who stated tho facts of tho case. Laa cross examined the witness at length and one question a9kcd was, "Did the Holy Spirit work on you for good or evil?" The defendant made a long state ment referring to the law relating to friends visiting the leper settlement. He said he cariied a pistol in his pocket, but did not take it out and snore before God that he intended no harm. He simply went to tho President of the Board to get a per mit to visit his wife, a leper at Mo lokai. If that failed he intended to have di uuk awa or binned himself and got scales and sores as others had done and so try to pass as a leper. His Honor said he entirely disap proved of the carrying of lire-arms and sentenced the defendant to pay a line of $30 with costs, or in de fault to be imprisoned at hard labor for two months. Another charge was then entered against Laa, that of intending vio lence against tho person of N. B. Emerson, M. D. The following de claration was sworn to by Dr. Emer son: To David Dayton, Esq., Police Ma gistrate. Sir: I, N. B. Emerson, M. D., of Honolulu, have reason to believe and fear that a native Hawaiian named Laa (k) intends to commit violence upon my person, to wit, to shoot mo, as on the 10th day of De cember, 1888, ho entered my office in Honolulu with a loaded pistol and holding it in his hand demanded from me a permit for him to go to Molokai and live with his wife, a leper. Wherefore 1 ask that said Laa may be ordered to give bonds with sufficient surety that he will commit no offense against my per son. N. B. Emerson. This case was continued for hear ing. HONOLULU BY MOONLIGHT. I can see it iiow, that sweet summer land, As it burst in its beauty on mc, An emerald isle in a setting of gold, With its city at icbt by tho sea. The moonlight streaming o'er moun tain and vale, In Its woudeiftil golden sheen, to silent, (-o peaceful, all nature seem ed, So rich lu its robes of green. An enchanted isle with its splendor gleams, From Nuunnu to Walklkl From the Pali's heights, hlstouc, grand, To tho shoies of 'tbq shining sea ! A dainty picture In green and gold, The work of a muster-hand, So It seemed to mc ns it nestled tlieie, 'Twist tho hills and the silvery strand. Grey "Diamond Head," so burren and bleak, Like a watching wanior bold, In its bosom dead the llery strife, That burned in the days of old. Glim sentinel, standing silent, alone Keeping gunrd o'er the land of his blith, Tho gaidcn of ocean, tho homo of God's smiles. The loveliest isle of this earth ! The lamps glowing brightly from happy homes, Half hid by the rich green trees, Now beaming in beauty, now fainter though', As tho blanches stlucd in tho breeze. The peaceful harbor, the vhltc, white shore, With its stately ships at rest, Like a dieainlng child, that "Isle of Song," Lay asleep on tho ocean's breast. Asleep 'neath tho sacred sway of peace, The eaith, and tho sky and tbo sea Afahv-llku realm so strangely bright, That broko lu Its beauty on mo. May F. Coomuoi:. San Jose, Nov. 17, 1888.
