The effect by torch-light was peculiarly strik-
ing: all, at intervals waving their swords on
high, and joined by the soldiers, giving utter
ance to deafening cheers, which were borne
in the stiffness of the night, far and wide.
After experiencing the hospitality of the
lady of the Secretary of State, the procession
reformed and marched at quick step tow
ards his Majesty's residence. The cheering
in their progress through the streets was
loud and enthusiastic. At 10 O'Clock the
company took leave of their Majcsties.
On Saturday, Aug. 3-Gov. KEKuANAoA
gave a rural feast at the village of Waikiki,
to his Majesty and court. A rustic arbor,
with flags over head, was prepared under
the beautiful grove ofKo trees. The table
was 100 feet long, well laid out, and accom-
modated 81 guests. The feast was cooked
altogether in the Hawaiian style, and con-
sisted Of II different dishes, SOM of which
were excellent.
Polynesian., 1844-08-10

The festivities Of the week ofthe 3lst. are
past. The anniversary of the Restoration
of the kingdom to its legitimate authorities
afforded a fit occasion for a national jubilee.
1t was not simply the restitution of power
wrongtully seized, to its lawful ownership,
that gave occasion for so prominent express
sions of public joy,-for that was but a
simple act of justice; but it was the moral
effect of the deed-the voluntary relinquish-
ment of a coveted possession by "a power
whose dominions nearly %encircle the earth,
and needed but this kingdom to complete the
chain of military possessions from one hem
lsphere to another;-it was this abandon
ment of political covetousness, which has
added honor to the great kingdom on the one
hand, and security to the weak on the other.
1t is a lesson which, supported by so eminent
authority, will not be lost on the future des-
TIMES of the world. 1t has elevated this
kingdom into the constellation of powers.
Weak in military strength, but strong in
virtue,-for it has passed unscathed through
severe trials, and issued from the contest
doubly armed in the rectitude of it's conduct
and motives. 1t is then the birthday of its
independence,-the day on which the char
ter of its national existence was acknow-
lodged by the nation that unwittingly had
given it over to spoil. That people must
indeed be dead to sentiments of self-respect
who feel no thrill of patriotic emotion at the
deeds which made them freemen. 1t is true
that in this instance no armed resistance met
the invader,-the soil drank no blood,-but
the triumph is therefore the brighter. The
will was abroad, and the vengeance of the
people was stirred deep, and the cry to be
led to the assault strong. But their rulers
foresaw the folly of warfare, and with a
moral courage which is the rarest and
brightest of all, repressed the ardor of their
people, and awaited in dirn;f,c'
d.v r,L--.u,c sustained by their conn
dence in her Queen, and the spirit Of her
councils; and the event justified their endu-
rance. If we award the need of moral
grandeur to the Roman Senators that amid
the sack of Rome by Brennus, calmly
awaited their fate in their robes Of office.
scarcely less is due to the rulers of this
country, who amidst obloquy, indignity, and
injustice, triumphed over their passions and
gained their causc-not by violence, but by
the strength of right. Celebrations like the
past, keep alive the remembrance of these
deeds of worth, and the memories of those
who figured in them will descend as the mos
valued of inheritances, to their Children
For ourself we felt it an honor to participate
in the celebration of so noble a triumph, an
we still feel it an honor to be enlisted in tn
ranks of a nation that has so honorably com
menced it's existence. AS a native of tn
United States of America, we look to tha
country as the noblest and best the worl
has as yet seen; and we conceive that n
foreign title or emoluments afford create
dignity or more privileges, than that of bein

The tremendous trade that will grow up between the
Chinese and the outside barbarans fall into the
hands Of that nation whose manufactures best suit that
people, both as to prices and quality. We have within
ourselves the elements that will this trade We
have the raw material that will make the cotton goods
wanted England depends this country for this ma.
teral that forms the principal article Of trade between the
two countries. The cotton crop of this country is
valuable staple at this moment than before
ket containing than three hundred millions Of PEG

With demand for cotton greatly exceeding that OF any
previous year, have shorter crop than usual With
marketto supply larger than all the others put together
we have the same supply of the material Looking
