HAWAIIAN literature is so limited that to speak
of it is like describing an ignis5atuus, where the
mind has to imagine what the pen can only call
by a name. Nor is there anything at all strange
in this; for q nation cannot be renovated in O
day, nor its language made to rival those which
have had the culture and criticisms Of centuries
to perfect them. 1t is only thirty-fve years since
the first printing was executed in Honolulu, and
the books heretofore published in the native Ian
cuage have been confined mostly to elementary
school and religious works, published by benev-
olent societies, and the avs of the kingdom, pub
lished by the government.
By the enterprise of one of our native young
men a new step has been taken, in preparing and
publishing the work entitled He huhikuhi o he
Kanaka HaOaii, The Hawaiian Counsellor (or
Form Book.) The author is. j. w. III. Kauwahi,
a native lawyer, who has evinced in the prepara-
ton of this book, tact and ingenuity, as well as
a knowledge of the subject he has treated upon.
He has been employed some two years in pre-
pairing this book, and it is not giving him too
much credit to say that no foreigner could have
produced a work more adapted to the wants of
his countrymen. The book supplies q want long
felt throughout the kingdom.

ton, Notwithstanding their almost entire igno-
rance of the principles of law, and indifference to
the results of their suits. Fancying themselves
a~ggrieved or their rights trespassed upon, their
resort is to the power of the courts to correct the
matter, which in many cases leaves them little
better off than they were when they began the
suit.
The work of Kauwahi does not undertake to
give the principles of law, but the nature of
the different legal forms in use in every day busi-
ness, with full explanations in regard to them,
and very much resembles in this respect a Clerk
Assistant" There never has been heretofore any
standard in drawing up native forms and docu-
ments, excepting the few prepared by the govern
ment, which are seldom used, and the variety of
forms in existence is almost as numerous as are
the documents themselves. To correct this and
to furnish a standard, where error is so liable to
be made this work must produce a good result.

ence of opinion in the bar, as to the appIcaolllty Oh
the statute under which Mr.. Franconl has peen
prosecuted, to the circumstances OF q like case ana
recommended to the Legislature to enact a special
law to prevent the evil complained of. and that the
legislature, instead of yielding to the SUGGESTION
passed a resolution declaring that the statute was
sufficient. and that any officer declining to prosecute
parties for maintaining a public nuisance OF a ike
character, would be guilty OF q neglect OF duty :,
Notwithstanding, until | was specially requesVeI
by those who have q right to direct my course, l
did not institute proceedings upon the statute, as L
thought a failure to convict would not only tend to
encourage q more open violation of the law, but
make more public an existing evil.
Under instructions, therefore, | Instituted pro-
ccedings against Joseph Booth and Louis tranconl,
and, having tried the former without securing a
verdict against him, L think should be Justined IN
entering a nOUe prOSequi against the latter.
Besides, there are other reasons why L should not
further prosecute Mr.. Franconi. Since the proceed
ings were commenced, he has ceased to be the keeper
Of Il hotel, and rctires without realising any peecunl-
airy profit for himself or others who have been inter-
csted in sustaining him. The nuisance is ab aed, as
Il consequence, and Il like experiment of attempting
to make a profit out of Il similar business will not
probably again soon be tried, under like circum-
stances.
l am also advised that it is the wish of those under
whose direction L instituted proceedings, and the
King and his Cabinet, that [ should now discontinue
them. The department which grants licenses to
hotels can guard against the continuance of the evil
complained of, by restrictions, to be inserted in the
license, or the Legislature, by cnacting more specific
provisions on the subject. Such being the facts, and
for the reasons before stated, L feel that it is my
duty, which [ most cheerfully perform, to ask of the
Court to grant me leave, us public prosecutor, to
enter a nOAe prOscgui on the Indictment found
against Louis Franconi, for maintaining a public
nuisance, and that an order shall be entered to that
effect, and that the reasons here stated may be
placed on record.
On placing the foregoing statement on file, the
Court ordered that leave be granted and q n2Ue
prosequi entered.

by causing to be assembled, that they might asso-
clate together, common s%trumpets and strangers and

whom q better could not be procured, that on the oc.
cas;on of another fire, such interlopers be required to
put their hands to the brakes and stop their noise
They are great nuisapces, and although they NAV
contribute a few dollars towards supporting the de-.
partment, they are no tiremen; and, unless their own
property is endangered little have they ever been
known to do mt q fire, except to create confusion and
annoy the officers Of the department.
Let us have a hook and ladder company. 1t is
needed. Let the property holders become actire, not
honorary members, and use their utmost endcavors
to perfect such a desirable organization. The tools
all let our property holders put their hands and
hearts to the work, and no fear for the result need be
unprecedented of the efficiency of our fire department.

January 81, 1857.
Captain Evans of the whale ship .Arctic was acct
IDENTIFY killed on the 2Sth Oct. 1856. At 100 AM,
A rope was Immediately thrown to him, which he
succeeded in laying hold of, but the ship going fast
through the water, and the sea being very rough at
the time, when he got abreast of the ships quarter,
she settled down on him, and struck him on the head,
and chest, breaking his collar bone, and otherwise
~indicting fatal injuries upon him. A boat was
lowered and he was Immediately taken on board the
ship, but he merely breathed once or twice and was
dead.
1t was proposed to bury him at st. Paul's Island,
but the weather was so bad that it was found impos-
sible. His body was therefore placed in q coffin
which was enclosed in q much larger one, and the
space between the two collins, filled with lime and
sand, and he was brought to this Port, and buried on
an Island at the East end of the harbor.
At the time of the accident his wife (whom he had
married from this place 8 months before) was on
board, and she had the melancholy satisfaction of
seeing him inferred within a few yards of her fathers
house.
The funeral took place on Friday the 23d instant
and was attended by all the masters, and most of the
officers of the whaleships in harbor and the principal
inhabitants of the place. The procession of whale
boats extended over half q mile-and the funeral
service was performed by w. B. White, Esq, Resident
Magistrate.
Captain Evans was q native of New Hampshire,
U. s A.-aged 90 years.
