By advices from Hno, we learn that the whaleship Roman,
Duvoll, arrived at that port on the 9th Feb, and the ship Barn
stable, Fisher, on the 18th. The BarnstabLe had taken two
small sperm whales during her cruise around that island. The
bark Yenice and ship Phillip L., were still at Hilo. The
Ysnice was to leave about the I'D. The BdrnStabIe would
touch at Honolulu about March 1st.
Bark Fanny, Boodry, has taken nothing in her cruise out.

one whose captain appeared to be quite sanguine, and expected
the price of sperm oil would reach 81 so per gallon by the time
he got home. Success to him.

Mr.. EDITOR In your paper of Jan. %, you were
pleased to make a few remarks on the ssmangosteen, -
and to publish a short article on the same from the
Horticulturist. AS your object in publishing was to
call attention to that delicious fruit, and, if possible,
to effect its introduction into these Islands, I will
briefly state that I have had the mangosteen growing
in my yard at Waioli. VERY much regret the un-
toward events that resulted in it's destruction.
Some fifteen years since, VIM. Hooper, Esq, then
of the firm of Ladd & Co., sent me one seed of the
mangosteen and also Of what he called the alligator
pear. Both of the seeds grew, but the mangosteen
being planted in q low part of the yard, where the
water stood, did not seem to thrive well. I removed
it to another spot up the valley. There, partly from
neglect, it was injured by animals and finally died.
1t had attained to nearly three feet in height, in some
eight or nine years. Had it been kept in a favorable
spot, [ have little doubt it would have been in a bear
ing condition by this time. The tree resembled in
appearance the Mandarin guava. The seed, I was
told, came from Guayaquil. Yours truly,
Hanalei, Kauai, Feb. 1857. E. JOHNSON.
