rowed money repaid. 80 far a can be gath

II LUCK ONCE MoRE-The whaleship Ocean,
commanded by Capt. W, W. Clark, arrived on Fri
day last, fifteen days from San Diego, off which port
she has been so fortunate as to obtain 1850 barrels Of
oil, which is the largest catch taken by any vessel
this season. The John HowlaRd brought in a larger
cargo, but part of it was saved from the wreck of the
bark Delaware. The ocean is owned in New Haven,
and is the only vessel hailing from that port, and is
on her third season out, having taken 200 bbls. sperm,
and 230O bbls. of whale-not a bad voyage consider
ing she only took 80 bbls. during her cruise in the
Ochotsk last summer. Capt. Clark assures US that
it is very pleasant whaling in an American port,
where he can learn the news from Washington by
every steamer arriving once a week.

EDIroRs AND Printers APPRECIATED.-Ihe late
news from Washington indicates that the new admin
istration duly acknowledges the influence of the press,
in the appointment of so large a number of editors to
responsible offices. At least one-fourth of the APP
poiutmentS would seem to be from this class. Be
sides the Commissioner to these islands, and the Con-
sui to Honolulu, both editors. Mr.. Raymond, of the
n. Y. Times is appointed Consul to Havre, worth
eight to ten thousand; Mr.. Thayer Of the y. \. Post.
is Consul General to Egypt, worth $500; Mr. Fry
of the Tribune, Secretary of Legation TO France; J.
L. Bittenger, of ST. Louis, TO be Postmaster at st.
Joseph worth So, 900, and many others less promi-
nent. Simon Cameron, Secretary of War, and Mr.,
Hamlin, ~Vice-President of the United States, have
both been journeymen printers, from which humble
position they have risen step by step 20 stand on the
highest eminence.

New MAcHINERY.-The Yanbee brings the ma
chinery for a new bread bakery, TO be erected by the
Messrs. Love. The machinery viii be driven by a
neat two-horse engine. There is no reason why
Honolulu should not make all the hard bread requir-
ed for its trade, as good and as cheap as the best i'm
ported.
- Speaking of engines, we notice that the Trieste
brings a new steam engine of ten or twelve-horse
power, from Philadelphia, for the Brewer Sugar
Plantation on East Maui, which will supersede the
mule power, on which tue mill has heretofore de-
pended. Slowly but surely, we are establishing
around US the evidences of internal prosperity, and
to every one of them we would say God-speed.

"How DOTH THE LITTLE Busy BEE IMPROVE EACH
SHINING Hour" &c.-The truth of the above famil-
lar line, which every admirer of DR.. Watts poetry,
has read a thousand times. Is rendered evident by
the actions of the little " cusSes" at kOna, Hawaii,
where one swarm has increased, in seven months, to
twsnfy-ihrec swarms. At this rate of increase, no
labor can be better repaid than the raising of bees.
Honey is now selling at three rails per pound, and
when it can be afforded at twenty-five cents, it Will
enter into extended use in the manufacture of soda
water, and like things, which its present too high
price will not allow.

Jas. NJ. Green, sails to-day for San Francisco. taking
the American mails. She has been put in the best
condition. and being a well built clipper vessel and fast

any route on which she may be placed. If not sold
in san Francisco, she will run as a regular packet
on this ~route-perhaps.
