market IS well supplied with staples.

is to be broken up.

MEMORANDA.

British bark HIfqm & Martha left Puge. Sound Jan. Q. On
the 18th saw brig L.. P. Foster going into the Sound. The
Foster was to return TO this port with a cargo OF lumber, and
is now fully due.
The American whale ship MontPelier, Maconhe:, returned to
port on the 18th, absent one week. On the secozd day out the
ship commenced leaking, which, during moderate weather, in
creased to four hundred and fifty strokes per hour. The ship is
d~ischargfng her cargo, about 1900 bbls, as the damage must be
IN her bottom, the upper works having been thoroughly re-
paired.
COASTER Losr.-The schooner M1y,a small craft of 10 or Il
tons burthen, was lost on Molokai, in the gale Of Feb. s, the
same in which the RiaIte was lost at Koloa.
Capt Carver, Of whale ship lancaster, reports the following
whalers at Huahine, Jan. 10 Ship John Rowland, Taylor
Cambria, Pease Trident, Taber; Janus, Winslow Lydia,
leonard. The Lancaster spoke, near Tahiti, Jan. 20, ship
Sheffield, Green, and ship Maria Theresa, Davis Capt. Davis is
reported quite i'll. None Of the above vessels had taken any oil
since leaving Oahu.
The schooner Ratio, recently wrecked at Kauai, is touI
loss, Her boats, two masts and sails are all that have been
saved from the vessel. We have received the following letter
from Capt. Taber:
KoLoA, ID mo-, 10Th, 1857.
Ms. EDITOR II wish to avail myself of the columns of the
Commercial -4duertiser tn state the particulars Of the loss of
the schooner Rialto, of Honolulu, at KoIoa. The Ratio ar
rived here on Sunday, at ? ?. NJ, wind East and moderate.
At sunset, wind light with rain, veering ENE and NE during
the night. In the morning, (Monday) no rain, nearly calm;
discharged freight. At 9 A. NJ, wind veered Sc; at meridian
South, rather freshening. At 1 P. N. went on board, took in
boats, made preparations to get under way, riding with Is
fathoms in 81 fathom water. Hove in about 3 fathoms, hoisted
mainsal and foTesaiL, and hove away. Sung out forward, - all
away the vessel had sternway on; hoisted jb, fell OFF as usual,
and, surprising I had ample distance to allow the vessel to fall
of more than usual to give her Roadway, came gradually to,
with Roadway Suddenly stopped and came up into the wind,
heaving at the windIass all the time. 1 anticipated no trouble
at this moment, but in half 4 minute three seas put the vessel
where no anchor would save her. I tried what I thought was
the only thing that could be done unshackled the chain to
slip, as nothing but Roadway would take the vessel of. Before
that could be accomplished, the vessel struck af, on the rocks
HOSTEL out the boat to run the kedge, but found it impractical
bic and of no avail, on account of the surf where the vessel lay
The vessel is a total loss. +. T4BER,

NOTES OF THE WEEK.

ACCIDENT.-We regret to hear that Judge Hardy,
of the Circuit Court of Kauai, had his foot badly
bruised by the falling of his horse, about the first of
this month. -
DRowNED.-A seamen belonging to the whale-ship
Brutus, was drowned at Lahaina on Thursday last.
His name was Richard Welsh, was q years old, from
Prince Edwards ID, N S. 1t is only five months since
he left home. He, in company with a number of the
seamen of the ship, was in the water washing the
boats, and sporting among themselves, some little
distance from the land. He was seen to go under the
water and raise his hands, but his shipmates supposed
him to be only in sport, till his long absence aroused
their fears. Natives dove down tobring him up, but
the water being quite muddy, owing to recent rains,
it was half an hour before he was recovered. 1t is
supposed he was taken with spasms.
CooLIEs.-The five years term for the first impor-
tation of coolies expired a few weeks since. y ques-
ton has arisen whether they are bound to serve out
the time they may have been absent and refund the
expenses paid on their account. This was decided in
the Police Court a few days since, in the case of Jos.
Booths coolie. in which it was adjudged that the
coolie should serve out the term of 120 days that he
had been away at different times, and also the sum OF
$37,5 so in addition, being expenses and fines which
Mr.. Booth had had to pay on his account during the

mourners who watched night and day, lamenting in

FOR the y A.

For the 2. c. Adverf..
Mr.. EDITOR in your leading article of las,
you make some inquiries which I will attenn,
answer.
You ask, {" why not add to our exports the pno,.
of whaling vessels bearing the Hawaiian hag:n n /
table to which you refer shows the invoiced Cos,
goods imported into the kingdom. ABORTION Of n.
imports are exported, to the value of which is adj,
what I consider a low estimate for the value Of = |
productions of our soil. 1 do not attempt to acco, /
for the manner in which the balance against rs
cancelled, but your suppositiOn is undoubtedly G.,
rect. 1t is not just to include the productions Of = /
Hawaiian whale fishery in its past state, with Il
productions of the soil. Suppose that when the asra.
of affairs in Europe was threatening in 1854, L,
owners of the Russian and French Whalers then :
the Pacific had caused bills of sale to be execute1
conveying their vessels to Hawaiian subjects, WI
then should have applied and received Hawaiian re,
listers. If, at the close of the war in 1856, the Haw..
ian owners of these Hawaiian ships sail for Eury7
with their Hawaiian produce, leaving US no hope a
seeing again either owners, money or ships even, i
such produce of our flag of any material value TO Us:
1t pould be just to include the c~atchings of several
.4mericGn whalers with our domestic produce. g
some of them are well known to be owned wholly O.,
IN part Dy our IelION fSSlueuISs anu IL LdTSS amount Of
money is every season paid to men who consider the
Islands their home. Ships and men are discharged
here year after year, and invest their money here.
In regard to the change in the estimate of domestic
supplies furnished to whalers, the following is my ex-
PLANTATION. For several years it has been the practice
to ask the captains of whale ships at clearance. how
much they have spent for Hawaiian produce, The
average of their reports has been taken for the
estimate. Satisfied that this was too low, the estimate
was made with the aid of some of the principal shin
chambers and agents, and although you think 500
a fairer average it is probable that $1,000 is nearer
the benefit derived by our agriculturists and graziers
from each whale ship visiting our ports. 1t does not
seem probable that the crew of a whale ship can be
provided for in port for a month for the sum Of Sol,
yet that is the amount reported for one ship in 1876.
Recruiting for the past ten years at an average annual
outlay of $3.50, is great ~frugality.
The list of articles which can be obtained in our
market is increasing yearly, yet in the valuable CON-
parative table compiled and published by you in your
last paper, you allow without objection the estimate
for 1917. You will notice in that year merchantmen
are estimated at 5000, whalemen at 500, and men
of war $4,000.
From your excellent North Pacific U1aIemea's
Shipping List, [ find that the average ay-days Of
the first So ships is 81 days for those at Honolulu,
and % days for those touching at Lahaina. The
average for the latter is $500. and for the former
1915, not far from the truth, suppose. VIC.
