The Purchase Of the Sandwich Islands.

This subject has been long under consideration and
attracted much attention that it is of interest the
entire community. The last relating to the mat

give King Kamehameha 100000 per during his
consideration Of their surrenderng their claims the
sovereignty to the United States government The state

islands will only be valuable for coaling and recruiting

facts AL will acknowledge that the main foundation

The Flying Dart which sailed but short time since;
