SIIIPIIXG SEWS.
Bsax Cliaa Haaoaaras Left Newcastle (a Itb coal to the
agent of the C S Z A M Co at this port) May US, and met
with moderate winds Tarylng from JiV to SE the Erst three
dftji out. Jnne 1st encountered a heavy gale accompanied
with terrlic squalls, which lasted until the 3d. Ou the 7th
met with heavy gales from the eastward which contlnaed
seven days with but slight moderation. On the Ast, (the
.barometer at noon standing at 2S.75) experienced a severe
hurricane which commenced from XE and gradually worked
around to N W, finishing from EE, during which the ship was
Xove-to under dose-reefed maio'topsail and reefed mieaen stay
sail; the hurricane lasted with great severity until tbe 34th,
with a tremendous tea running; it then moderated until the
SOth, when it sprung up again from XE aod lasted S hours.
Met with EE trades In Ut 15 south, long 132 west, and Carried
them to lat 15 north, crossing the equator In long 134 west.
Had pleasant weather during the remainder of tbe passage,
with strong XE trades, which gradually moderated on Bear
ing tbe islands.
The Clara Hargraves left thebarkCeleaUa(wblch made sev
eral trips to this port a few years' since) In part loading, but
it was uncertain whether she was bound t o this port or Ftf is.
Bui Aom Left Newcastle on the afternoon of Jnly 1st,
and had flue weather with moderate westerly winds the first
week out; third day after leaving spoke the steamer City of
Adelaide, and on the.tenth day passed the longitude of New
.Zealand. July 8th had a strong westerly gale which lasted
three days. Sighted Tahiti on the 21st and crossed the equa
tor in long ISO west on the 26th. Took tbe SE trades well to
the eastward In lat 33 south and carried them to lat 3 north,
after which had light baffling winds for three dsyt and then
got the XE trades about E by Ji and had them fresh until
reaching tbe Islands. ' Sighted the east point of Hawaii Aug
1st and came through the Hawaii channel, arriving oif this
port on the evening of the 4th after a passage of 34 daye.
.After eightms; the bud met with light and baffling winds
until arrival.
The Agate was built in Kewburyport, Mass, is three years
oM and has made three voyages around the world. She ar
rived at this port last year from Newcastle with coal and sail
ed for Baker's Island on the 12th of May; twenty days from
leavisg here she sailed with a cargo cf guano far Liverpool
and made the passage in 112 days. From thence she proceed
ed to Boston, from theuce to Melbourne aod from that port
to Newcastle to load again for Honolulu, arriving cere after
an absence of 14)5 months, which is a remarkable voyage and
-one not often made even by clippers.
USEmr Jaxiaronr Sailed from Valparaiso Jnne 3d and
experienced fine weather to the SE trades, which were mod
erate, and carried them to lat JO north; from thence moderate
southerly winds for three days. On the morning of Jnly 10,
In lat 14 north, experienced every indication of what appear
ed to be the outer edge of a cyclone, the centre of which was
supposed to be a couple oT degrees to the northward. At the
commencement of It the wind was about SVT by IV, and dur
during the day It worked completely around the compass.
Sail was reduced to storm-sails. Had the ship been but a
short distance further north she would have met the fall
force of tbe cyclone. At 8 p m was all clear of It and steer
ing course with the wind SE by E. Prom that tlma had vari
able winds for several days and got the NE trades In lat 21
north, which were moderate and unsteady, with occasional
light ratn squalls until approaching the islands. The greater
' part of the pessage was employed In exploringjthe positions
sjivrn to several Islands which are reported on the charts as
doubtluL
The barkPowhattan at IIIlo, discharged her cargo In eight
days and tailed for Fort Gamble on the 3d inst.
The schooner A P Jordan left San Francisco July 1st for
this port via Humboldt and is now due.
The brig Bobcrt Cowan arrived at Victoria July 10, 2S days
hence. She was to nndergo repairs and would sail again for
this port during the latter part of this month.
fiPABBOWg. By the Xevada oa her last trip from
AnckUnd, His Excellency the Minister of the Inte
rior received from Thos. Kirk, Esq., the Secretary
of the Auckland Acclimatization Society, cine Ecg
U&h sparrows (four males and fire ietsslcs,) ont of
twelve originally shipped by Sir. Kirk. These birds
had been caged by blra a month, to snore them to
tic conHncsient on shipboard. That cine ont of tbe
twelve survived the voyage, Is sufficient proof that
they were in excellent condition Trben put on board
tbe steamer. They were placed In charge or Mr.
Hasslncer Immediately after arrival here, who pnt
them In a laice cage built for tbe purpose of keeping
imported birds until they recover from sea voyages.
Five of the sparrows, two males and three females,
have "been set at large and all of them except the odd
female bare fonnd homes among tbe trees In town.
Tho poor forlorn female without a mate, f till HnRers
around the cage, having; been, no donbt, cruelly
snubbed by the little party which had been set at
liberty, and prefers imprisonment to scorn. Spar
rows being very hardy, and lncreaslnc: rapidly, we
inay expect soon to see tbe increase from this little
colony as plentiful as the beautiful linnets, whose
early songs delight those who arise with the esn.

AcCIDtXT AT KaCPAIXEl PLANTATION, HlLO.
One of the centrllugals at tbe above plantation,
bnrsted ono day last week, Injuring the China
man who was employed In drying sngar with
tbe machine. At last reports the man was still
alive, though It was considered donbtf ul if be would
survive his injuries.
Bepaxbijso. Tbe schooner Kate Lee has been
hove down to examine her bottom and repair the
damage she received some time ago by getting
ashore on the reef below the light-house As the rc
pairs required are sot extensive, she will probably
resume her trips next week.
Accnos Sales. E. P. Adams will offer at sales
room to-day at tbe nsual hour, a fine assortment of
dry goods, groceries, drags and medicines. On
Tuesday next, assignees1 sale of tbe stock of Crow-

noon on Saturday next, a lot of cattle belonging to
tho estate of Owed Holt.
The Lecture of Archdeacon Mason on Friday
evening last, owing to tho unpleasant weather that
evening, was rather poorly attended. Those who
were so fortunate as to be present on tbe occasion
were highly entertained by the eloquent remarks of
the lecturer and the masterly readings of choice se
lections from the great novelist.
TnENEXTSTEaMEES. Thesteamcr Albion, which
takes the place of the City of Melbourne while she
Is being refitted, will be due from Sydney and Fiji
on the 17th inst. Tbe City of Adelaide from San
Francisco Is due a week from to-day. Should the
D. C. Murray.bave a long passage down the sterner
will most likely be the first arrival from San Fran
cisco. Oeb TtEinrrts will please take notice that the
Kilauca sails to-morrow for Kauai, to return on
Saturday, thus affording a rare opportunity for those
desiring to make a flying visit to that Island as well
as giving those who wish a few days at sea, a rare
chance of Indulging themselves In that respect with
tbe certainty of being able to be in town again at a
certain time. Tbe smooth sea and pleasant weather
which prevail at present will render this trip of tho
Kllanea a particularly pleasant one.
A Fixe Passage. The dipper barkAgate, CipL
J. B. Brown, arrived from .Newcastle on Saturday
morning, having made an extraordinarily short
passage of S5 days, which Is the quickest on record
made by a sailing vessel. The trip Is a satisfactory
one in every respect, as her cargo of coals found a
ready sale. Capt. Brown has furnished us with
Newcastle papers up to July let No shipping were
reported up for Honolulu at that date, although a
vessel was expected from Sydney to load for this
port The Agate will probably proceed to the Gu
ano Islands and from thence to Europe, as shc.did
last year from this port
A few years ago, the mango was considered about
as rare a lrult as grapes are now, and It was doubted
by many whether the frnit could be raised except in
favored localities. This idea has been very effec
tually exploded since that time inasmuch as there is
hardly a garden or lot in town which has not an
abundance of prolific mango trees. Grapes, tbe
most delicious of tropical fruits, might be quite as
abundant here as tbe mango Is If people would only
take pains to plant vines and take care of them.
Wc have had tbe pleasure of tasting most lucious
grapes grown by Mr. Edward Everett on Fort Street,
who by care and perseverance, has succeeded in
bringing to maturity quite a large variety of grapes
which are now repaying him for his trouble by bear
ing abundantly.
The Arrival of Tin: TJ. S. S. Jamestown.
Tbe Jamestown arrived at this 'port oa Saturday,
Sth Inst, Ci days from Valparaiso, having, under or
ders from the United States Government, cruised for
some time during tbe passage for Islands and
reefs laid down on the charts or reported as existing J
but tbe existence of which was considered uncertain.
Among the officers of the Jamestown, our citizens
will recognize many of those who visited Honolulu
In the same vessel a year ago, and whom all will be
glad to receive The following is list of tbe officers
of the Jamestown :
Bancroft Gherardi, Commander, Commanding.
Chas.L. Huntington, Lieut Commander, Ex-officer.
William Welch, Lieutenant and Kavigator.

Emma Square. Our cotcmporaries have been
commenting In highly laudatory terms on the present
picturesque and ornamental aspect of this little park.
and we heartily endorse all they have said on the
subject Wc all recollect the unsightly waste in
which it lay for many years after its dedication to the
public by the enlightened munificence of our late
lamented Sovereign Eamehameha IT, nntll touched
by the magic wand of our veteran pioneer horticul
turist, who has so succcssfnly demonstrated the won
ders which can be achieved even on the very poorest
and most barren soil by a skinful combination of la
borand manure. Many ornamental trees, especially
the araucarias are now flourishing there In unsur
passed luxuriance, and nothing can be more pleasing
or grateful to tbe eye In the present parched condi
tion of this neighborhood than the refreshing ver
dure f the surface of thai which three short years
ago was little less than a public nuisance. We too
have had the privilege or enjoying a specimen of the
deliclously tender and luxuriant asparagus there
growing, and which can hardly be surpassed in size
or quality on the most fertile soil of other and more
favored countries, and we earnestly hope that tbe
excellent and landable example thus set by Judge
Montgomery may serve as a stimulus to others " to
go and do likewise."
A Paeis letter says: " Tbe other day It was
rumored that au American Company bad offered to
rebuild the Tnlleries, the Palais Royal, the Hotel de
Tille, and. In fact, repair all the damages done to
this Paradise where the souls of good Americans
love to Inhabit - The condition under which tbe
Company has proposed to set matters right is, that
It shall be repaid In five years all tbe money ex
pended, repaid In Trench Hcntes at the present
price, say 63 franca: If the Rentes In five years
time were to attain their normal value of TO francs,
then a vast cum would be cleared by the speculators."
Among the Communists.
We make tbe following extracts from a private
letter, dated Paris, June 15th, written to a gentleman
In this city:"
I wrote you a word Immediately after the taking
of Paris by the French, to let you know that I for
tunately was not nnmbered among the forty or fifty
thousand poor wretches who made their last account
during that black week. By this time, of course
you are familiar enough with the scenes iitai iook
place here at that time; so It would be useless for
me to repeat tbem to you. Fortunately or nnlor-
tnnately, oughtl to say? I saw a great deal of the
fighting. By accident King and I, and an English
man named Ponsonby, spent Sunday night (the night
of the entry,) at tbe house of Major Hitchcock, In
the Boulevard Malesberbes. When we awoke on
Monday morning the Communists were building a
barricade across tbe Boulevard immediately beneath
our windows, and at 10 o'clock the fight there
began. Luckily, the family of Major Hitchcock had
gone to Italy a few days before, and so we had the
entire house to ourselves. From the upper window
(fifth 6tory,) we could overlook a large part of the
battle-field. The fight commenced at 10 o'clock on
Monday morning, May 22d, at the Malesberbes Bar,
rlcadc, and ended by Its capture at 5 o'clock on
Tuesday afternoon. Our barricade was the key to
tbe whole central position, and when it was carried
the last faint hope of the Iuturgcnts was gone. It
was situated only 200 yards from the great barricade
in the Rue Royalc, and the loss of the one wat the
loss of the other. It was Just at this time 5 p. m.,
on Tuesday that the Communists set the first fire
In the Rne Boissy d'Anglas, which you will remem
bur is a narrow 6treet Just west of and running par
allel with the Rue Royale. Fire was then set in this
last named street and during the nlgbt all along tbe
Rue de Rivoli, in the Tuileries, etc., on the line of
retreat
We had some pretty narrow escapes during those
two days. Twenty-five bullets struct the facade of
the story In which we were stationed, and a bomb
shell carried away a large part of the cornice. In
onrXront room almost every window was pierced by
chasscpot balls, the mirror was smashed, and the
furniture badly damaged. Of course we had to
conceal the fact of onr presence In the house from
both combatants till the struggle was decided. If
tbe house had been occupied during the fight by
either side, we should all, very possibly, have been
shot at once as bclonglng'to the other. All during
the week, too, shells were falling everywhere, many
people were killed or wounded, and many others
bad miraculous escapes.
I see by the American newspapers that they are
with them, of course. The American public are very
badly instructed in regard to this second great
French Revolution. Idonotdcsirctogo into a long
defense of the Commune. I only beg that you'wiU
reserve your judgment till Its story is fairly told.

started the revolution of revolutions eighteen bun

of the men of the Commune, among tbem Dom

I have said. Don't tblnk that I uphold the murder
ing of innocent persons, the sacking of churches,
the making of forced loans, the burning of public
and private property. Politically speaking, tbe
Commune was a mistake and a crime from the out

Honolulu, July 29th, 1871. 29-4t
Dbith avoso PouTtctaSS. The New Tork cor
respondent of the Rochester Democrat writes:
Tbe recent death of vallandingbam calls my atten
tion to the remarkable exception which It lorms to
that of other departed political leaders. It Is indeed
worthy of notice that this cists of men hare lired
to an old age or to Its near approach, and that they
have seldom been removed by violence. On this
account Mr. Vallandlngbam's case attracts particn
lar attention. His death and that of Peter Cagger,
arc among the rare instancf s of the death of politi
cal leaders by accident Tbe death of A. P. Upshur,
Secretary of the Nary, by the bursting of the big
gun on board of the Princeton in 1M3, li the near
est parallel, but be was not a political leader, 'ibe
Revolutionary patriot ol Massachusetts, James Otis,
who made Faneull Hall ring with his eloquence,
died by a stroke of lightning. Lincoln was slain by
an assassin, and was the only one of our Presidents
who died by violence. To these may be added the
inferior name of Hiscock, whose fate, while a mem
ber of the Constitutional Convention, is fresh In the
memory of our readers. Webster, while In Albany
In 1S15, was on the point of taking passage for Aew
Tork on the stearper Swallow, which was wrecked
near Hudson, and bad he done so he might have
been among the other tlctims. Among tbe short-
lived politicises, the most distinguished was Hugh
S. Legree, the bright star of Tyler's Cabinet, who
died In Boston in 1542. He was only forty-six and
bad served as United States Attorney for two years,
bnt had won eminence in that time Of our states
men, Clay reached the age of seventy-fiTe, Jackson
seventy-two, Calhoun sixty-eight, IVcbstcr seventy,
John Quincy Adams eighty-one, Buchanan seventy-
eight. Van Buren eighty-one, Taylor sixty-four, Cass
eighty-two, Marcy seventy-one and Edward Everett
the same. Benton was seventy-six, and what is re
markable, Webster, Calhoun, Cass and Van Buren
were born'the same year 1782. Going back to men
of older date, John Adams saw his ninety-first year,
and Jefferson bis elghty-tblrd, both dying on the
Fourth of July, 1826. Burr lived to eigbty-one,
which was a striking contrast with his ancestors,
for bis father was forty-two at tbe time of bis death,
and bis grandfather, Jonathan Edwards, was only
flfty-tlx. Monroe lived to seventy-three, John Jay
to eighty-four, and Patrick Henry to sixty-three.
We thus learn that our politicians, notwithstanding
their cares and vexations, enjoy an existence much
beyond the average age, and thai tbe early death of
snch men as Legree and Henry J. Raymond forms
the exception.
