Of sufficient value to call for the hearts anthem OF
praise.
Those who may wish to know what was the state
of society at the beginning OF the present century,
will read with interest on the first page of this paper
the address of the Hon. John Ii, delivered sixteen
years since, which we find in an old volume of the
PoIynesian. Mr. Ii. the companion of K~amehameha
the Great, the counsellor OF Liholiho, the bosom
friend of Kamehameha III, and the adviser in the
councils of his present Majesty, still remains amongst
us, one of the few links that connect the present
generation with the days of hamehameha L. One
after another the companions of his earlier days are
dropping away, and leaving him alone, a living wit
ness of the beniicent influence of christianity on him
and his people.
The Pacific commercial advertiser. [volume] (Honolulu, Hawaiian Islands) 1856-1888, 1856-12-25

Mr.. EDITOR Can you inform us whether the
Government has leased Fort street to the proprietor
OF the carpenters shop Under the former proprietor
of that establishment the public were sometimes
incommoded, yet a decent regard to the rights of
others was observed. but the late change is much to
be regretted by every one residing upon that street,
and by all who have occasion to pass therein. The
present occupant OF the aforesaid shop so occupies and
blocks up the street as to make it at all times danger
Gus and many times impossible to pass through it.
What right one man has 20 incommode the whole
community IN this way, | am at a loss to understand.
1t seems to me that this carpenters business should
be confined to his shop, and if there is not room enough
then, he should remove to some place where he can
find sufficient room without appropriating that which
does not belong to him.
think that it would be well for the public if those
whose duty it is to remove nuisances, would attend TO
this matter without delay. Yours, A Resident.

THURSDAY, e Is, 1856.

There has been a good demand for Beef, Pork, Bread and
Flour this week.
The barques Yankee and Fanny Major brought full cargoes, Oh
which stores for ships, now in the harbor, formed the greater
part. The following transactions we note:
~FLOUR-Hawaiian held at So, and the mill is unable 10
supply the call. The Importation Of Haxall per the Messenger
Bird, is held at SIS.
~BREAD-About6 10000 TBS. Pilot and Navy, ex Yankee, and
Fanny Major, sold from vessel, at prices ranging from St6~IUc.
Ship chambers prices rule a little higher.
RICE-Caroina, 1Oc.; China No. !, &c.
ISLAND PRODUCE-SaIes of $4,000 TBS light bro. sugar, Tor
sbinment. N private terms. Coffee held at ~120O123c. Arrow
root, &C.; TalIow, Sc; Hides, SO9c.; Pulu, last sales at &C.; Mo
hsses, Soc; Syrup, Soc. In Refined Sugar We notice a specula-
tive movement, caused by the advance of the article in the Unit
ed States, where white crushed is quoted at 13lcM14c.
PROVISIONS.-Sales of Hawaiian Beef at auction, at ST.
q Dbl; American held at S220S25; Mess Pork, S3o032.
BUILDING MATERIALS.-Stock heavy, very little demand,
The rage for building that possessed both foreigners and natives
a year ago, (stimuiated by the low price of "Nor West " Lum
ber) has passed away. Notwithstanding, the article is s. low at
the present time that there is no encouragement to import.
CIGARS-Larges sales of Manila Cigars, CHavana shape) at

Mr.. EDITOR Seeing that your paper is free for
all that wish to defend good morals, [ take this O-
portunity to expose a habit which some of our good
people of Makawao have contracted. Perhaps they
do not know that it is very annoying to their neigh
bors and injurious to themselves. How would you0r
any other man that has been out all day to work
hard, when you come to the house have a man ask
you to lend him your supper? Now 1 would as seen
have a man ask me for my dinner as to have himask
for my paper before 1 have had time to read it myself.
But SO it is with a few men in this place. They stand
ready as soon as the mail arrives to catch every paper
that is not put under lock and key, and it is lucky
that you ever see them again. Out upon such men'
L have no objection to helping my neighbOr, but t0@
treated In this way, it is too bad. Cannot you hep
to do away with such a nuisance? Printing at INC
present day Is so cheap that every man can turns
himself with one or more copies, and where there ;"
number of men in one place as there arc here, t''
could change with one another. 1t is about as honor
