The last was q Mormon Free Love ticket, got up to
give variety TO the election. Lincoln was declared
elected by y majority. Had there not been 8 iiSi-
sion among the Democratic voters. their vote would
have been 14S, or a majority Of y over Lincoln. The
result of the election was received with q round Of
nine cheers for Lincoln and Hamliu, and i: was voted.
moreover, TO have a salute Of I2 guns, on the return
Of the Yankee, which will bring the news Of the cleo
ton in the United States-no matter who m.y be
elected. Had sufficient notice been given, and the
polls kept open all day, probably the vote would have
reached 900 or 200. as there are at this time some
1900 seamen and officers in port. Some OF the
strangers who voted thought it was a bona Jf8s cleo
ton, and that the votes were 10 be sent on 10 Wash
ington. -
BURGLARY.-An attempt was made on Friday
morning last, to rob the money safe in the cabinet
shop Of Mr.. C. E. Williams in Hotel street. The
building was entered about 4 O'Clock in the morning,
and the writing desk broken open 10 obtain the key
Of the safe, which was usually kept there n the day
time. Net succeeding in finding it, the thief at
tempted to rry open the safe, but failed in the at
tempt, and before leaving the premises set FIRE to the
desk, which being filled with papers, &c, soon ignii-
ed. The native policeman stationed near by, observed
the light and gave tn alarm. In s. few minutes, the
fire would have gained such headway, that under the
strong wind blowing at the time, it would have been
impossible to have saved the building. The entry
must have been made by some one familiar with the
premises. -

with emblems Of the order. 1t was executed by Nh.
\. E. M'Gregor, of East Maui, and reflects great

many a larger city than Honolulu to find its equal
in merit. -

OUR NEXT MAIL.-Capt. Huestis. OF the Ico7iuEa
informs Us that the ship George Lee or the Lotus,
both Of which vessels were loading at San Francisco
for Hougkong. would, either Of them, if requested,
probably bring and leave the L 5. Mail for Honolulu.

other glasses on the beach fail to discover a sail.
