CHIRIMoYAs.-We have received from Mr.. Seymour,
who has them for sale at the City Store, some Of this
unrivaled fruit, called also the custard-appIe, raised
at Kona, Hawaii. 1t is not often that our citizens
are enabled to enjoy Q taste Of chirimoyas, owing to
the difficulty of transporting them, though the fruit is
now becoming quite abundant on Hawaii.

Nh. EDITOR The above I quote as the concluding
paragraph from the mendacious pen of one who for
a series of years past has prostituted his talents in
attempting 70 write down a company of Christian
pastors In this community, well knowing their peace
full character, and that they could not consistently
with their professions and habits enter the arena of
contest with 3 writer % SCOTS and rioatdry, they have
uniformly held their peace when assailed In newspa-
per and magazine. They di.dained to reply to such
unproyoked attacks, presuming that the public would
in dle time be stated, ad nauseum. with the reiterated
falsehe IDS of his pen, without the shadow of facts to
support his assertion. He, 1 say, knew this charae-
ter Of peaceful non-resistanee ON the part of the OBJ
ijects of his vituperation, and yet he kept up his das-
tardly assaults. as if he thought them indicative of
his courage. But no; a generous adversary would
have ceased his fight upon non-resistance. i coward
only would continue 30 beat the air when no ADVERSE
ry was present to put him in danger. Just so with
the man who signed the Communication as above in
your paper of the 18Th inst. There is no moral or
physical courage IN fighting peaceful elergymen, who
cannot with self-respect return the insult. So. for
sooth, he struts and crows, "they are stripped Of
their feathers, and fallen sadly By whom, let me
ask, are they stripped and feHed? He. the defuncs
editor, who could not keep alive his own paintings,
would have 1t believed, that has prowess has achieved

u The following ship news was issued IN our Extra on Satur-
day last, but has not appeared in our regular edition before:
The BRIG " AGATE-"-By the report brought by the LihotiAo
this morning, there is every reason to doubt the account OF the
loss of the 4gGte. The natives on board the Lih0EiAO, from the
NeU England, and who, it was said, belonged to the agate,
turn out u be from the F0TcdTd, and the rumOF seems to have
sprung from this foundation. The only reliable intelligence
received is from the Capt Of the PfeL, who saw the agate on
the 18th July, in st. Lawrence Bay. All the knowledge we are
able to gain from every available source shows that the For
trard and Agate have been confounded.

Y New RoAD.-Amongt the recent improvements in
town is the opening Of the new road from Beretania
street to the Royal school, running along the Kings
garden. A gang of 800 or 400 natives last week pat
it in passable condition for carriages and travel.
The Improvement in the value of real estate in that
neighborhood, from the opening of this new road,
will not be small, and those who had the forethought
as did some of III. Ms Ministers, to secure good
building lots on that street, viii do well by them.

II would seem from the following that
the st. Paul folks turn the Mississippi to
some use, if it is frozen up. Says the
Times, of the Gath:
The Mississippi has become a fashion
able resort for the horse-racing fraternity.
On Friday last two fast nags entered the
list and stakes Of $500 were put up. Capt.
Dodd and Louis Robert owned the animals.
Dodd's horse beat, although the other horse
had much the start of him.
On Saturday morning another race came
off on the Mississippi, between the horses
by Dodd and Jno. Cormack. Purse
$500. "A croud was on hand as usual,
and a general excitement followed. The
horse owned by Cormack was the winner.
