AN Old OFFENDER CAUGHr-On Saturday night,
the dwelling house in Nuuanu Valley, Of Mr.. W. E
Cu5relI Of the Merchants Exchange, vas entered, and
many articles, among which a valuable gold watch
and chain, were distracted from the apartment in
which he slept. In the morning the prints CT q
naked foot were plainly discernible on the verandah,
but farther than this, there was nothing to guide the
eye Of suspicion. Il was only the preceding night
that a sum Of money was distracted from his hotel.
\ reward Ct $50 was offered by Mr.. C. for the recov-
cry Of the stolen goods On Monday, q drunken ka-
naka was arrested and taken to the Station House,
and on being searched, as IS customary, before being
locked up, Mr.. Cutrell's knife and watch-key were
found in his pockets, and the fellow had on the miss
ing boots. He was Of course suspected a. having been
concerned in the above robbery. Search was imme-

FEMALE EDUCATIOS-We cannot conclude the Sc
ries Of able articles on this subject, the last of which

seldom that essays have appeared in print on any
subject, which hare called forth more encomi-
ums. The deep and thorough knowledge Of the
native race which they eyince, the apt SMILES en-
ployei to illustrate the arguments advanced, and
more than all, the aiaptedness Of the remedy propos-
ed to meet the present wants of the natives, will
be noticed by every thinking reader. We trust
that the devoted and gifted authorizes Of these letters,
may. when occasion calls for it, favor the cause Of
By again making public the sentiment
which the experience Of a life devoted to the improve
ment Of the native race has tested and confirmed.
