QUICK DISPATCH-The improvement which hiss
taken place Of late years in our trade and intercourse
with the coast, Is shown in the celebrity with which
orders for goods from San Francisco are now filed.
Merchandise ordered by the Iautsc, which sailed
Sept. "A, was received by the Comet, oct. 27-or in
So days. Orders and letters are now seldom over 40
to 10 days in being answered. This Improvement Is
owing, in a great measure. 10 the better class Of
packets now employed "a this route, and must result
in vastly increasing the traie-toth Of exports and
imports-with san Francisco, and reducing that with
Eastern Atlantic AMI European ports. The number
Of passengers too. Is steadily increasing but We
would suggest TO the owners Of the line the prUprI-
ETY. Of reducing the fare TO fifty or sixty dollars. 1t
would not result i'll one dollars los, but would cause
\ still greater increase Of travel. ami tend to prevent
any successful opposition. The public desire no bet
ter line Of packets than the present; only let the
price Of passage be such as Will create more travel,
without requiring travellers TO stop and count the
cost. Times are not quite 50 flush as they were years
ago, and the weight Of a dollar appears to have
changed with the times.
SOAP A. AN EXPoRT-We end a new article on
our list Of exports shipped per Moonlight, viz;
Hawaiian Soap. This was manufactured by Mr.. W.
II. Hudiy, and Is in quality, common yellow and
white, in bars. 1t Is put up in boxes of 10 lbs. each,
and Is of excellent quality. The weight of the bars,
is as A bars to the 100 lbs. If that man is worthy
TO be accounted as a benefsctor TO his country, who
makes two blades of grass to grow, where only one
grew before. Messrs. Utai < Ahee. who are the adj
venturers in this lot Of Hawaiian merchandise, GER
tainly deserve praise for their efforts to establish
this article among the exports OF Hawaii.
BICHE De MER.-The Moonlight took away to
Hongkong, the first shipment Of this highly savory
and much admired edible, according to Chinese no
tions, ever made from these islands. Success to
such Industries. which add to the true wealth of
Hawaii. Utai x Ahee are the pioneers in this COM
merce.
AN OLD ACoUAINTANCE.-T Templeton Dougherty,

WAsHINGToN May 22.-It is reliably ascertained
that Spain denies that the seizure of San Domingo
in consequence of orders or with the know
ledge of her Government, but she saws she must
nave time and further information before she de-
cides what to do with it. 1t is not known what the
United States, Great Britain and France will say
upon the sub ject.
The privateer question may be disposed Of sum-
marily. 1t is now understood that this Govern
ment several weeks ago, offered its assent to the
treaty of Pals, aboshing privateering altogether.
The attitude of the Government is known To be
firm in all its foreign relations, insisting, just it
did before disuniOn began, al its rights, but it
IL courteous and friendly toward all other powers.
The foreign ministers here all present at the
reception of the Secretary of State, last night, and
appeared to be on most cordial terms OF friendship
with him.
Mr.. Asia Burnagua, the new Charge IA faires
from Chill, was by appointment received by the
Secretary of State to-day. He presented his Gre
dentials and delivered a speech, assuring this Gov
ernment of the sncerest sympathy and respect on
the part of the Government of Chill, and saving
that any harm which could befal the United States
would be equally disastrous to Chilli. The forms Of
government of the two nations are the same, and
they have common interest and a common cause.
The Secretary of State replied, reciprOcating these
Kind expressions. He said the United States were
the friends of all nations, and just to all nations
but they were essentially and forever Republican
and American.
1t will be recoected that the late Adminstra-
ton not on favorable terms with the Republic
of Chill.
The Navy Department will, in the course of this
week, invite proposals for building the steam ma
chinerv of a number of screw gun-boats. The ma

Zonta engines, with surface condenser; and of two
vertical water-tube boilers. The cylinders to bt
80 inches in diameter, and the stroke of piston
| Is incnes. The TWO boilers to contain nnety-on,
square feet of grade surface and tweny-seven hun
dred square feet Of heating surface.
No proposals will be considered except from pro
prietors of engine building establishments. Parties
, desiring to propose for the above machinery viii
apply to the Chief of the Bureau of Construction

ZoUAvE OUTRAGE IN MARYLAND.-We are in
formed that late on Saturday evening the house of
the Rev. John Martin, of St. Baruabas church
(Episcopal,) in Prince Georges Co., Md, near
Piscataway, was visited by party of rough Zou
aves, three in number, who demanded a secession
flag which they said was there. Mr.. Martin was
absent. Mr.. II. A. Williams, who was accidentally
present, and in the act of leaving before they came
in sight, demanded By what authority they came
to disturb private family. They remarked that
they had authority, which proved to be ONLY
leave of absence till 619 o'clock. Mr. Williams
then protested against their conduct; but they still
persisted saving if three men not enough
they had more in the woods short distance off =
Mrs Martin, becoming alarmed and fearing vio-
Iepce said that they could have the flag if it could
he fonDd; il had not been up for some time. One
of the Young ladies then produced it, and told them
tbat she made it. and they might inform their
neonle. and gave it to them. They used number
of harsh expressions, upon receiving the nag, and
threatened that their own flag should wave all
over MARYLAND. They then left, no doubt to boast
of their daring exploit.
