bound came on to Boston. We published last
Monday how their spies were lurking about a
certain establishment They crawled up into a
place which overlooked it and saw their victim.
Thus was everything prepared for the execu-
ton OF the law. The requisite warrant was, at
the instance of lawyer Spencer, duly obtained
and placed in the hands Of Marshal Devens. The
North Carolina agent was not to be split on the
rock which had been fatal to Hughes-he had
good legal advice and proceeded legally and eau

SUFFRAGE IN THE SANDWICH IsLANDs.-The
rie bit of suffrage having been granted to the PEG
ple residing in the Sandwich Islands, an election

privilege aud halls the event as suspicious tor the

have not seen the law prescribing the right OF
Suffrage, and do not precisely know how Tar 1t
extends but believe that 1t embraces all, both ma
tive born and foreign, who have resided In the
Island for a specified period. An adopted II avail
ian writing upon the subject, says that this is the
long wished for opportunity to engrtt vigorous
shoot Of AnglOSaxon energy upon the less thrifty
tree of Haw allan Legislation, and that 1t is sin
cerely to be hoped that the friends of progress
will not supiney suffer the precious time to pass
without taking some vigorous steps in the matter.
Twenty three persons are to be elected, and
vigorous effert will be made to secure as many OF
this number out of the universal Yankee ma

the greatest objection in Hawaiian government,
Hawaiian legislation, and the administration OF
Justice in Hawaiian court is, and has been, that
they have long been behind the age.
