HOXOLULU. DEC. 1. 1869.
Since cur last Issue, we have to report tlie
arrival of the Forest King, on tbc2Ctli of No
Tcmbcr, wltli lumber, from Teekalct, W. T.
The Am. etilp Cejlon, In C. Brewer &
Co.' regular line, tailed for New Bedford on
the 2Ctli nit., with a full cargo, consisting
cbicilr of wlialo oil and bone.
Tbc Idaho sailed on Saturdny, the 27tb
nit, with a fnll cargo and a large number of
passengers; the cargo consisting mostly ol
molasses, paddy, fruit and sugars.
Tbc nest vessel to be expected from San
Francisco Is the Great Admiral, touching
here en route for Hong Kong. She may be
looked for next week.
The auction sale at Messrs. F. A. Scbaefer
& Co.'s, last week, prorcd the best sale of tbc
season, bidding was lively, and fair prices
were realized.
UxDir. dats of 0-uWr loth, our New York corres
pondent wrllesas Mlos respecting the rivalry be
tween Iarl and water carrisjre: The contest between
tanj and water channel is taking rortiun and
shales so large and rnointutnu as to attract tlie- at
tentin ot scientific men. Tbc SictU Science Asso
ciation bas bad the matter under iliseusswn this
weeL, and .nie interesting facts anil figured bae
lecn siren, tbe inm and subnuuco of which is that
the actual cost of railway transportation has nerer
vet been definitely deltrnriuesl; that the larger the
traOc tbe Kr-aler tbe propu: Donate prollt, and that
railroads can successfully eomte with the water
route jo these days of steam and electricity This
liasalnudy ln demonstrated by the Pacific Itail
road, which is, under difficulties, slowly but surely
llllii the water Hues of California. Representa
tives of Western aud other trunk roads are nrransriiis
new time table and revising the tariff for through
freiafals totl.e 1'aelfic coa. and I am also assured by
reliable anlhorities that tbe rates to your city, all
rail, will be a little cheaper than Tia the Isthmus.
Tbe effect of this your readers can readily under
stand. It is tbe longest ile that Inncs-i tbe per
simmons, aud tbe cheapest and mou expeditious
route that pets the freight. Meanwhile, the Cape
trade appears to be gradually dying out, and some
cf the lines rnut ere Ions withdraw, unless some
thing shall turn up to galvanize it iutu temporary
vitality I say temporary, for the lsys of shipping
anything but cheap, coarse freight by way of 0a
Ilia n have gono by. and are not likely to return
while steam and tbe electric telegraph continue to be
the gloat arbiters of commerce.
Tux passenger arrivals at San Francisco during
the nlontb of October, by way of the soa, numbered
1,858, of which 666 were from Sew Vorli by way of
Panama, and 7S8 from China and Japan. This Is
the smallest number which lias arrived In a single
month in tuo years. The arrivals by way or the i
Isthmus are much less than for a number of years !
tbe railroad absorbing tct-bulkof the truffle between
the Atlantic States and this city. Tlio aseuger de
partures by wav of the sea for the past month num
bered l.JiS, of wliichSStwcntby tbe Panama steam
ers, and 8Tb by the China steamers. Extending the
comparison so as to cover the first ten months of the
yrar, we Lato the fallowing result:
Ten mouths. Arrived. Departed. Gain.
IMC 22.043 1S,M 3,471
1M7 13.103 16,788 12,710
1SC8 62,71) 21,104 31,570
lSd9 34,407 11,002 23,335
The gain in 1868 was unprecedented, and was chiefly
owing to tbe cheap fares prevailing at that time on
the Isthmus naite. It is expected that a large fninii
gration from Europe will tuon l flowing In -this
direction by way of AoplnWAlL The efforts now be
ing mule In the Interest of Immigration will doubt
less add very materisltr to our iopulatiou within the
next jesr or two. X JJuJUtln.

LOCAL NEWS.
Tuc Ball on board the Mohican last night,
was n brilliant affair. Tbe ship was taste
fully decorated, and the arrangements for
tbe festivities of the evening were admirable.
His Majesty honored the occasion with blB
presence, and remained on board until 12
o'clock. Dancing was kept up to a laic
hour, the festivities of the occasion, being
enjoyed by all who were on board.
Messks. Black & Auld have shown great
taste In the various handsome invitation
cards, turned out at their ofjicc the past
week.
" Visitors to the Wax Works at Good Tem
plars' Hall will notice that change of prices

A i.anOE party will be given to-morrow nipht
at the rcsidcueu of II. B. .M's Commissioner
and Consnl General to Captain Anncslcy and
officers of II. E. -M's S. CaMtUtm.
We publish on our first page, tbc eloquent
and ably written Thanksgiving Sermon of
liev. Mr. Snowdcn, which we commend to
the attentinti of our readers.
We would call attention of tbe public, to the
performance tendered for Monday even
ing next, by Mcef rs. Lee and Byland at their
Circus, for the benefit of the Honolulu Fire
Department; and would bespeak a full at
tendance on the occasion.
Machine Drill. The Fire Companies
turned out last Saturday at 4 P. M.. for
monthly drill. The brakes were manned,
and the machines put tiirougb a few minutes
pumping, to prove tlicni as being in good
and serviceable order. Thecrowd, as usual,
gathered round and manifested great iuterest
In tlie thump of the brakes and the stream
of fljing water. The engines look gay in
their fancy paint, and are bright with care
and good keeping; aud the drill showed
that tbey may be depended on in case of fire.
Our Fire Department Is worthy of all praise
for its admirably kept up organization.
Found Dead at the Station-IIocse.
Helta, a native known as Capt. Lout:, who
was arrested aud taken to the Station-House
on Monday ecuiug lor being intoxicated,
was found dead in tlie cell In which be was
confined, on Tuesday morning. Two men,
conllned in tbe cell on the same charge,
could gltc no otheraecount of tbe man than
that tlie last they recollect of seeing him he
was standiugat the cell-door, looking through
the grating. Tlie pout morlan examination
before the Coroner's Jury, ehowed that the
man came to his deatli from the effects of the
concussion caused by striking his head heav
ily upou the floor of the cell, which Is of
concrete.
Social. On Tuesday evening of last
week. Dr. and Mrs. McGrcw, gave an ele
gant parly to Admiral Turncrand the officers
of the Mohican. Their rooms were filled
with ladies and gentlemen, for whose enter
tainment, admirable arrangements had been
made, so as to secure a pleasant and enjoya
ble evening. The parlors ivcre devoted to
dancing, the band being placed outside, near
the open windows, the side rooms to card
tables, while tbe supper room was an Impro
vised pavilion, constructed with flags and
other coverings. The table was spread with
a splendid repast, being lighted in tlie cen
tre by a chandelier of b:i) oncts, which served
as candlesticks. Bouquets of beautiful flow
ers adorned tbc table aud rooms. Tiie even
ing passed oir pleasantly to all present, and
the guests departed at a late hour.
Scicide. On Friday last, about 3 o'clock,
P. M., notice was sent to tbc Station House,
that a sailor bad committed suicide on the
premises of Jack Shaw, on Smith SL The
body was found lu a sitting posture, leaning
against a nasbstand, in the midst of a fear
ful pool of blood, the throat displacing a
cut, that bad severed the arteries, and pro
duced Immediate death. The razor, which
the man bad used still moist with bis blood,
lay upon tbc washstand. It was found upon
investigation, that his name was Joseph
Shale, a carpenter, lately discharged from
the whaler Ohio, and that be bad been drink
ing heavily, all the time of his stay on shore.
On the morning of his suicide, be bad shown
symptoms of delirium, and had said he
feared lie would be shot by somebody. He
had received $09.00 at the time or bis dis
charge, which small sum it seems had suf
ficed to get liquor enough to finish him.
Facetiocs. Captains and others belong
ing to and interested in the whaling fleet
have always been very attentive and obliging
in supplying us with news items. We were
met the other morning by one, who Is not
behind hand lu items of news, who assured
us that he had an item, that unlike others be
bad given, he could vouch would stand the
test of a cross-examination. He bald that it
was his practice on entering this harbor to
take Iilsship's papers forward, aud give them
in the charge of the crew with a short
speech, to the following effect: "Men, wc
are about eutcrlng port, and I again intrust
to your care uiy shlp'6 papers ; do as you
please with them, and whenever you are
ready for sea, and desire my services, you
will please uotify me, and I shall be happy
to go with you. Should you, however, de
sire to make a change in the command of the
ship, you arc at liberty to do so, at tbc same
time you will recognize the justice of notify
ing mc of such change." P. C. Aditrtiur.
Wisdom 1 ! I Information 11 ! In the last
week's Advtrtlstr, the following Important
(if Titcn?) Information Is furnished by the
publicists, who teach the people through the
medium of that paper:
" It will be remembered that we opposed
Mr. Varigny's appointment at the time it
was made, mainly on tlie ground that he
was a member of tbe French Legion of
Honor, which Is everywhere regarded as tan
tamouut to bciui; In the service of theFrench
Emperor, the decoration being a mark of
peculiar favor, bestowed only on those who
have shown great devotion to the French
Empire."
From this wc learn that Mr. Cblckcring,
tbe piano forte maker of Boston, "Is in the
service of the French Empcrorl I" and has
shown peculiar (most peculiar) devotion to
the French Empire! ! ! and so of many other
like cases. Of course, the fact that Mr. Va
rlgny received the decoration 6ome months
subsequent to bis appointment to office here
U not of the smallest Importance to tbe Edi
tor, since be might say that If he wasnot op
posed to the appointment because Mr. Yar
iguy was a member of tbe legion of Honor,
be was opposed to it, because be bad fore-
knowledge that he would "be . We
can not pause to point out, of what vital 1m
Importancc it Is to this community, whether
our Admilter friend is opposed to an ap
pointment or not.
The Anniversary of the Recognition of the
Independence of this Kingdom by England and
Franco was observed on Monday last, by tbe
parade of our several military organizations,
the usual picnics, excursions into the country,
horse riding in town and in fact, in the vari
ous ways in which oar quiet poopiearewontto
enjoy themselves. The Honolulu Uiflcs nnder
the command of Capt. C.T. Gulickhadaparado
and target practice on the Kulaok&hua plains.
Reference has before been madoas to the per
fection in drill of this Company. It will be
gratifying to their numerous friends, to know
that the members of this Company are as 4X
pert at firing as they are in military evolutions.
On this occasion the firing may be said to have
been excelent, when wc consider that the arm
used by the Company is hut little more Telia
hie in target practice than the old, and now,
nearly obsolete mutket. The prize (atendoi
iar Gold piece) for the be?t shot, was awarded
to private Salem Hanchet. he having hit the
target every shot, hitting inside tbe ring once.
The firing wasat two hundred yards. After the
firing, the Uiflcs bad the pleasure of entertain
ing at their tents the ofiirers of the Cavalry
aud Artiicry and a few other invited guests.
The Cavalry, under the command of Major
C. II. Judd, also had a parade on the plains ;
tbe eae and precision with which they per
formed the difficult evolutions of the Cavalry
drill, reflected credit alike upon officers and
men. After the parade the Cavalry repaired
to a large laaai nt Leleo, where, with a num
ber of invited guests they enjoyed a lnau
which had been prepared for tbe occasion.
At 12 u. a salute was fired from the battery
on Punch Bowl. In the afternoon there was
an unusual number of people hore-riding in
the streets of Honolulu, all of whom seemed
to bo thoroughly enjoying themselves. Alto
gether the day passed pleasantly and wc arc
glad to have only one unfortunate casuality
to record, the particulars of which will be
found elsewhere.
Last neck the il CAdtxrt'uer, in comment
ing ou a decision of a case which had been
before the Police Court, the preceding week,
under Sec. 1 of the law of 1SC9, regulating
the storage of explosive substances other
than gunpowder, makes the following state
ment :
' Our surprise at this singularly crude style
of Iatv-makiog, is however somewhat abated,
when wc learn that the statute in question was
the production of no les a legal tniud than that
of tlie present Miuitcrof Finance a mind, it is
said, that so delights in the sinuosities of ' legul'
language that it cannot produce a single sen
tence of ordinury English."
We suppose it would be impolite to say
that our neighbor uevcr learned any such
thing. This law was approved May 13th,
1SIW, at which time the Minister of Finance
had been absent from tbe country, mure than
one year, and did not return until September,
1SCS. This fact was known to every body in
the Kingdom, and to none better than the
Adutrtlur, hence it cannot back out from the
clianrc of a " willful misrepresentation of
fact," on the threadbare trick "we learu."
After this, its readers will know Just what
dependence may be placed ou Its statements
and comments.
Petrified Giant. A few months since
in the town of Lafayette, New York, a far
mer digging for water, in a tnarshy Epot on
his farm, came across, about four feet under
ground, a curious rock, which attracted his
attention aud that of his, neighbors. It was
unearthed and was fouud lu appearance,
to be so completely like a man, that it
was pronounced to be a petrified body, and
under that announcement, has attracted con
siderable attention in that locality. Tiie
figure is so perfect that it is said to be Imjios
elblc to avoid the conclusion, cither that it
bas been a living body, or is an old piece of
sculpture, though the latter supposition
seems Impossible, as tbe stone bears no
marks of tbe chisel, and it is not of the kind,
that would be chosen for such work. The
papers say that it is a great curiosity, and
that thousands are going from the neighbor
ing city of Syracuse to see it; neither .the
scientific nor the unlearned, are able to ex
plain this curious relic. The following arc
the dimensions of the petrified giant: Length
from head to chin, 21 inches; length of nose
from brow, C Inches; length ol month, 4
inches; width of shoulders from point to
point, 3 feet; length of middle linger, 8
Inches; from the point of hip to knee joint,
3 feet; diameter through theleg at the thiu'h,
13 inches; diameter through the calf of leg,
9X inches ; height, 10 feet 3 Inches; Ids foot
measures 19! width across the palm of the
baud, 7 inches; diameter through the wrist,
5 inches; diameter across the nostrils, 3
Inches.
Dr.MoniLIZATlos .In a leading editorial of
the C. Adccrtittr, of Nov. 20th, wo have
the following important information, if true:
"Already we arc aware of tho baneful hab
its and practices which they (tho Chinese)
have transplanted upon our (sic) shores, of
which tho uso of opium and the prostitution
of voc.vo EAWAIIAS FEUALES are most pcr
minent." So we have this veraciout Chronicle inform
ing his readers that the prostitution of youth
ful females was transplanted hither, introduc
ed by Chinese 11 was unknown before their
coming. We hope our missionary friends will
read, mark, and inwardly digest this. We
had been laboring under the impression that
they had been engaged in preaching much on
this subject before the Chinese came.
Coolie System uf I.obor.
From the New York Tribcie.
Whether tbe coolie system of labor is a good
or a bad one, nothing can be gained by 'mis
representing it. Mr. E. M. Chamberlain , who
is not a working man (in tbe usual sense of
the word), but who is called the Workingmsn's
candidate for,Govcrnorof Massachusetts, says,
in his letter accepting the nomination : "The
coolie system is a mild form of slavery, and
whether men are bound for five years or for
life, the influence upon other labor must alike
be evil." A man who, like General Chamber
lain, undertakes to instruct others, and who
aspires to a high executive position in Govern
ment, should know that the coob'e system, in
theory at least, is not "a mild form of slavery,"
sou Axr ronu of slavery" at all. The slave
received no wages : he was incapable of main
taining an action against his master; be could
make no legal contract with his employer;
there conld be no termination of his service
except by death ; he coald not legally marry ;
he had no claim upon his children and no bold
upon the woman he recognized as his wife ;
and he was incapable of acquiring orenjoying
any estate, real or personal. If tbe Chinese
laborer is to be reduced to this condition, even
in a modified form, it will be against all the
laws of Congress and the established policy of
the Republic. If tbe importation of these
workmen is to result in any system bearing
the slightest resemblance to the old, exploded
system of chattel slavery, then it is our duty
to stop it in the beginning. As for "the influ
ence upon other labor," which Gen. Chamber
lains, affects to dread, we have only to say
that, while we have nothing more warmly at
heart then the prosperity of the producing
classes we have yet been unable to sec that
anything desirable is to be secured by attempt
ing to limit tbe supply of labor.
