The Rhode-Island Republican. [volume] (Newport, R.I.) 1809-1841, 1821-02-28
MIsCELLAN Gus ARTICLES

1t is a curious circumstance that the
present Queen OF the Sandwich Islands
was formerly, or rlthcr is at this time,
The wife OF Russian blacksmith. An
English vessel lying of, what we usaully
call the fox island, several years ago, one
, of the officers became enamoured Of the
fair spouse of son Of vulcan there and
his passion being returned, contrived to
smuggle her on board the vessel, and
keep her there concealed without the
knowledge of his captain, till they had
cleared the port. In the course Of the
voyage, however, the circumstances be-
came known to the captain, who being
highly enraged at such breach of faith
and discipline, kept her confined till they
arrived at the Sandwich Islands, where
she was put on shore. The forlorn A
riadnc. however, found Bachus for her
'Theshs, royal lover in the place Of her
lost Lieutenant. The King of the ISL
and became enamoured of the fair Rus
sian. made her his wife and raised her to
his throne. He was no every day King.
He was statesman and hero, though
we should call him savage. He pro-
gressively created respectable navy of
several well built irigates, taught his SUBJ
jscts to be excellent sailors, raised armies,
sufsdued the surrounding Islands. and at
the close OF a prosperous reign, LETT his
possessions and his sovereignty to his
Queen, who now reigns as his successor.
She is well obeyed by her subjects pos
sesscs great wealth in focks, herds, and
rice- -greunds, aud sends frequent presents
to her former deserted husband, who still
continues to hammer horses shoes in a
Russian colony, while his faithless, but
it seems not quite ungratcful spouse,
stretches her sceptre over several pros
porous isles.
