HoxoxtMM, April 4. The stars and^stripes, wbich for two month* have floated^from the government building have been^hauled down and the remaining forces^from the I'nited States cruiser Boston^have been sent aboard the ship. Nothing^indicative of American authority remains^in Honolulu aava Minister Stevens and^Conitni**ionsr Blount. The report that^Commissioner Blount would order^the flag down and the protectorate^aboliahed, got abroad 011 the night of^March 31, the preceding day. and the oc^^currence created among the American^party a feeling of consternation, not alto^^gvther unmixed with indignation. Thia^was dus to the fact perhaps, that Blount^had maintained a Chinese wall about his^l^ur|^ose* and hia mission aud satisfied^neither side aa to w hethcr hs cams as an^envoy to investigate, or aa a minister^tu negotiate. On the afternoon of March^31, Blount had a lengthy and secret con^^ference with President Dole and the cabi^^net, after which be notified them of hia in^^tention to declare off the protectorate es^^tablished by Minister Stevens, Fob. 1. It^is understood that hs gave aa a reason^that the Washington administration did^not regard the protectorate as neces^^sary, and further, that it was^Incompatible with any diplomatic nego-^| tiationa between the two countries. Ths^I United States, however, would brook no^I hostile interference in Hawaiian affairs by^another foreign power. Conscious of their^, strength, in view of Hie latter assurance,^^ the provisional government, though some-^I what reluctantly, acquiesced in the com^^missioner's decision and prepared to order^( out forces to maintain the peace and quiet^wbich had continued almost unbroken^j during the protectorate.
Onthe morning of April 1, President^I Dole of the cabinet inspected the troops^I and volunteer companies were called out,^making, with the regulars, about 4O0 in^' all. The hour for hauling down tbs^I American flog was fixed for 11 o'clock.^I As early as **, the streets began to fill and.^while ths resident* discussed, not without^some heat, ths unlooked for action of the^I American commissioner, at Palace^; square, natives, Chinese, Japanese, balf-^1 r sites, Pea t ugut ae and -whites, -en-^foot, horseback and In carriages,^waited to see ths flag comedown. On the^faces of tbs American residents were^j looks of chagrin; while broad grins over*^j spread tho face* of the natives. The tna-^I jnrity of onlookers, however, preserved a^I stolid silence.
jJust before 11, the regular troops of ths^provisions! government inarched into ths^enclosure before tbs government build^^ing. They wore followed by the volun^^teers. Galling gun* and two Hotcbkiaa
Ifield pieces were placed in a position to
[silence any hostile demonstrations. Other^troops were stationed about tbs city.^Inside the government yard were^President Dole aud the members of^the cabinet. Chief Justice Judd and^other official*, officer* from tbs naval^vessels in the harbor, prominent resident*^end representatives of the pre**. At 11:10
'Lieutenant Draper, U.S. X., stepped forth^amid a sudden hush of the throng and,^fsciug the government building, raised^Ills bugle and sounded the call in clear^and distinct note*. Drawn by unseen^agencies, the flag sank from it* height^and a minute later tho Hawaiian emblem^was hoisted in it* place. Not a cheer,
'scarcely a sound, accompanied the trans-
'formation.
! Troops www then stationed about ths^' buildiug and Lieutenant Draper and bia^j squad of marines proceeded to Camp^, Boston, which they at once evacuated and^' t hen marched to the boat landing and em-^j barked to go aboard the Boston. Tbs^I lack of demonstration is attributed to tbs^j fact tbst the queen requested the^I natives t ^ make no outburst,^j Commissioner Blount remains a good^I deal like the American sphinx. About all^' the public knowledge of hi in hers ia con^^tained in a letter from Cleveland to Presi^^dent Dole, which says: ^I have made a^choice of James H. Illount aa special com^^missioner, to visit tho Hawaiian island*^and to make a report concerning the^present status of affairs in that^country, lis is well informed of^I our sincere desire to cultivate and^j maintain to tbs fullest extent, the friend-^' ship wbich ha* so long existed between^' the two countries aud, in all matters^affecting the relations with the govern^^ment of the Hawaiian islands, bis author^^ity is paramount. My knowledge of his^' high character anil ability gives me eiitiis^1 roiilidence that he would use every en^^deavor to advance the interest end pros-^pvrit.v of both governments bug render^himself acceptable to your excellency.^'
Dlouutwas introduced by Minister^Sluvciia suit presented lus credentials^from the president. Attorney General^Smith, in speaking of the mealing, said^; that while the commissioner gave no di-^| reel assursnse beyond that tbs I'nited^I States would allow no foreign in-^1 terfcreuco here, the Hawaiian gov-^: eminent ia well pleased with the^1 manner of the commissioner and dkl not^j think that their interests would suffer at^I bis bands. The chief danger apprehended^Is of the Jspaneae interfering. The dsy^before the flag wss hauled down a rumor^I was started that the quern, anticipating^] the event, would apply to the captain of^tho Japanese rrulser for protection against^the provisional government and forsssist*^aneo to restore her to the throne. Milliner^Stevens. Commissioner Blount and Ad^^miral Skerret consulted over the ma ter^' and it is stated that they agreed that^i .'apanese interference would bo an act of^boatility to the I'nited Ststes and wou'd^, be repelled. No hostile demonstration,^1 howcrei. has. been made by any party up^1 to the present lime. The officers of the^I Japanese cruiser called on Admiral Skor-
rstla few days ago and assured him that^no hostile intentions wore entertained by^lbs Japanese.

April IS.^The England-Ken^^nedy oass which baa occupied the atten^^tion of Judge Brantly and a jury of^twelve citiiens sines last Monday morn^^ing was submitted to lb* juiy for deter^^mination at 10:45 o'clock to-night.

In contesting !^this suit, Kennedy claims that I^tbs deed was executed in return for^money advanced by England 10 release^a mortgage that stood upon this property,^amounting to *1U,00U and accrued interest,^and for ths paymeut of other liabilities,^amounting to about $lfi,uU^, aud was til*^tended as a mortgage, and that the dis^^puted property was to he reconvened to^him if, within a period of five years from^tbe date of the mortgage, he should repay^to England tbe sum of ^T,0Ou, together^with the lawful Interest. The evidence in j^tho case has been of a most conflicting I^nature, tho witnesses for each side testi- |^fying to a condition of alfairs on material^points in direct opposition to each other.
