Mn. ED,ToR.-I send, for the information
of your readers, a brief notice of the dongs
of most daring lnccndary or inccndiarcs,
who have kept our village in a state of alarm
for more than IA week past.
On Saturday night Dec 26th, the house
of kamauoha a respectable native, was con-
sumcd, together with small house adjoin-
ng, under circumstances which justified the
suspicion that it was the work of IN inccu-
diary. These suspicious were confirmed bv
the discovery on the following night OF a FIVE
lust ready to burst forth from the house of
kaiama, an aged chief The people now
became somewhat alarmed and set watch
men. Notwithstanding their watchiulncsS.
however, there were, on Wednesday ninht
repeated attempts to communicate iie t. diff
tcrcnt houses, and a, length about , clock
A. Nj. the flames burst forth from the house
OF kaiama, the same which had been attcmp-
ted previously. 1t was soon consumed, to-
gchcr with another standing near From
the last the flames were communicated to the
root OF a large stone canoe house. recently
erected by Gov. Adams, the colnhustihlc
part OF winch was soon consumed. together
with two large, unfinished canoes. From
The canoe house, the flames seized upon the
house of KacIcmanu, which was but few
feet distant. Since that time the watchmcn
have been more active, and very many otthc
people have lodged outside of their houses,
yet every morning brings reports of fresh at
tcmpts of the most daring character
With all their boldncss, the authors of all
this mischief are unhctccted, and so far as |
have heard, no suspicion has, with shadow
of reason, been attached to any one. The
object is probably plumber.

the advantages of well regulated households
and the virtues and cnjoymcnts of domestic
life. Commerce offers premium to NOR
ality and intelligence, as it pays those best
who possess those qualities III the highest
degree. Commerce has made them sailors,
artizans, and tradcrs--it teaches them the
value of property, and indirectly the rights of
man 1t has rc-modcllcd their poiity, freed
their labor, and is fast teaching the chiefs,
that if they would have their own rights lcs
pcctcd, they must respect the rights of 9TH
crs--that oppression and enterprise do not
90 hand in hand, and that if they would re-
tain their authority, they must exert them
selves to keep pace with the advance of
mind and general Improvement about them.
Commerce keeps the springs of enterprise in
melton, awakcns new idt as, libCraIizcs the
government, and brings the arts and improve
mcnts of other lands to theirs. 1t would
have carried them far in advance OF their
present condition, had they but seconded her
efforts by the cnaclon of suitable laws, to
encourage the settlement of respectable
whites, OF securing apprentices to trades, and
ether means, by which the interests OF all arc
protected in more advanced countries. Com
mcrcc is an ail.activc principle. All that

~ Co, have Published under the direction md sane
tlon OF the Boston Musical institute book of Church
MUSIC OF every variety for devotional exercises called
the Boston Musical institutes Collection of Ch,.rc
Music. The whole having been co.nposed selected
and arranged by Thomas Conner, Esq, Organst at
Kings Chapel.
For long time we have known that Mr. Conner I'M,
been indusiriousIy preparing this work for the press
Within his resources-and no man in this country haa
greater-nothing has hcenleft untouched which would
AID N the composition Of Sacred Music He has had
English German and Italian music at bis command,
and has used them freely
MI Coiner is the most accomplished musician, in
al the departments Of the science aud practice of that
dlVlne art, that we have known in Boston ; and his
hafncls warrant that the often repeated humbug of
making new book out ofold tunes spoiled by tho
absurd alterations of an ignoramus, has not boon
Pfacusod. His knowledge of harmony is Profound
his taste pure and highly cultvatedin hebes, schools
his acquaintance with authors Of sacred oueratic
vocal and Instrumental music is unoaaualcd by any
other member of the profession among US Asa per-
former on the violin, piano forte, and espcciy upon
The organ, he has acquired n reputation IN Boston,
that IS truly enviabe-a reputation whch neither ha
nor the institute would sacrifice By publishing poor
book.
From cursory examination Of this collection We
are satisfied IS the best published in this country
so far as II is new, rich appropriate and adaptcd 10
the popular taste and the state of musical know ledge
The melodies are choice the harnlonies simple easy
and correct the varieties of tunes and anthems arc
suited every occasion; and such is the tono Of
feeling which generally pervades the book that wo
feel confident, that all who desire Improvement viii
introduce 1t into their cholrs Immediately. People
may, If they please, adhere TO the dull music of old
tunes but we advise them to follow the example Of tho
Institute, and keep pace with the improved taste of
modern days, and better music. Boston Daily
