atom TO appoint a day, when all persons, go inclined, through
out these islands, might assemble in their respective churches,
and render thanksgiving to Almighty God, for the spiritual and
temporal blessings experienced during the year, now drawing -
a close. Believing that such an appointment will harmonic
with the feelings Of many, living upon the islands, we, therefore,
appoint THURSDAY, NOVEMBER %, as the day when all
persons 50 inclined, may gather and unitedly give thanks, for
the bountiful msrcies and blessings. which our Heavenly Father
in his kind Providence, has bestowed upon all dwelling within
the Hawaiian Kingdom. Among these blessings, we would
most gratefully euumerate the enjoyment and perpetuity Of our
religious, political. civil, literary and social nsttutions-plenti
fll crops-general health-domestic peace and freedom. from
foreign troubles.
We would especially invite christians Of all denomina-
tons on that day 70 give thanks, that the lives Of their Males
ties the king and QUEEN, have been graciously prolonged, but
in giving thanks, also send upa petition to our Heavenly Father,
that He may see ft in his iufuite mercy and love, to sanctify
70 them and their people, the death Of their beloved son, the
Young PRISCE OF HAwAu.

revolutions per minute. with much greater speed.
This IS shown BY her last trip TO Lahaina. She left

In nine hours, or about nine miles an hour. During
the passage her sails were not unfurlei. Taking
into consideration the reduced cost of fuel, the in
creased speed, and above all the adaptedueSs Of her
furnace 10 the use Of such fuel rs the islands produce
in abundance, these changes have a very important
bearing on the question Of future steam navigation
here. The steamer will leave again for a trip around
Hawaii on Tuesday next.
~ Among the passengers by the Yankee. were
Rev Mr. Scott and family. Of the Episcopal Mission.
Fney came out from England via Victoria ia the
TyrcStoutT, from which port they proceeded by
steamer to San Francisco. We understand that Mr..
Scott will probably be located on one Of the other
is~lands-Hawaii or Maui. In this connection We
may add an item Of interest. VIZ that Bishop Staley
preached in Hawaiian at the Episcopal Chapel on
Sunday morning last. The chapel was densely
crowded, and hundreds could not get in. The bishop
read his sermon, and though the pronunciation was
far from correct, the natives could understand most
Of il. The prayers were read, and also the Scrip
lures This Is not u solitary case OF a missionary at
tempting to preach SO soon after his arrival Rev.
T. Dwight Hunt preached in native when he had
been here only six weeks. Rev. G. B. Rowell in
about the same time. While Rev II. Bingham, jr.
preached in Hawaiian the Sabbath after he landed,
having studied the language on the passage out, so

ALBANY, N. Y, JaL. 7th.-The following
is a digest of the annual message Of the
Governor of New York. After reviewing
the condition Of the country, he seys:rs
"Our State credit, the index of an ibid
ing confidence in the Government, never
stood higher that now, aud the finances, al
though drawn on for war, are in a satisfac-
tory condition. Forty per cent. of the adj
vances made by the State, have been re-
turned from the Federal Treasury" -
The Governor recommends such legisIa-
ton on capital punishment as viii impose
the death penalty only, ia the first degree
of murder. He recommends that works on
military tactics be introduced into all State
colleges and academies, and drill be made a
part of the exercises.
The banking business Of the State is re-
ported to be in sound and healthful con-
dition.
Emigrants, arriving at New York, have
fallen off thirty-seyen per cent. from last
year, and are less than any year since the
organization of the Board of Commissioners
of Emigration. The Governor recommends
that the New York proportion of the Fed
eral tax (S2, o00, o00) be assumed at once
BY the State and proposes mode for its
The condition. OF the militia is alluded to,
and legislation recommended that will con
form with the laws of Congress aud i'm
prove the efficiency Of the discipline of the
State Militia.
The Governor then enters on a review of
the political troubles Of the country and the
action of the State of New York. r The ag-
gregsts number of men raised has been
I20,5Ts. The number now in the field, de-
Quoting the killed, wounded, prisoners, dis
charged &c, is SO ,o34 There are now in
the State in addition, mustered into the
United States service. l4,500 men. New
York troops are scattered over nine States,
and in forty-three different brigades, under
twelve Generals of Divisions. They have
taken part III every engagement during the
war, east of the Allegharies and south of
Washington.
The Governor alludes to the state of har-
Dor defences, and calls for prompt and effec-
tive measures in the Legislature, and for
immediate efforts to obtain suitable appro-
priatious from Congress to provide for the
defence ofthe coast, and that Immediate
preliminary surveys be taken at once, to
ascertain what defences are necessary.
He recommends the State proceed at once
with the work, looking to the General Gov
eminent for Reimbursement, New York's
interest in preserving peace with foreign
nations is enlarged upon, and war with
England deprecated as fraught with untold
disaster. No mere pretext; no caprice of
court or Cabinet whatever, unless it in
volved the national dignity, or we are de-
uied positive rights, could justify the repre-
sentatioR Of the State IN eeasenting to
war with any foreign power, especially at
a period when extraordinary supplies of
men and money have been and will be
drawn from us to overwhelm insurgents at
home.
The message concludes with the patriotic
declaration that New FORK will cast every
thing into the balance to preserve the dig
nifty and stability of the government.
