A FIGHT IN COMMITTEE Mr.. Foote,
of Tennessee, and judge Hanley, Of Ar
kansas, members of the committee to
investigate charges against the commits
saries and quartermasters, came to blows
in tile committee room the other day
Mr.. Foote, it seems, laughed at some OF
the evidence elected. Judge Hanley
|replie that he {Mr. Foose) need net
laugh. Mr.. Foote said his laugh was
an horest laugh, at least. Judge Han
ley said he doubted that. Some other
belligerent words passed, and Mr. Foole
arose and struck him. Both clenched,
and blows were given and received by
both parties. Mr.. Foote laid violent
claim to ] dge Hanley's shirt bosom,
tearing it out from his bosom. Mr..
#Commissary Northrop was knocked into
one corner of the. committee room like
a man Of rags, which he is not; commit
tee tables were overturne and the re-
corded evidence sent hither and thitLer
More ink than blood was shed. The
witnesses present in the room observed
their neutrality, but strore to allay hos
tilities by Selling both OF the combatants
by their coat-tails and attempting
their separation. Judge ilanley's coat
tai gave way in the struggle, involving
severe loss on the wearer. Finally, both
desisted, and the business of the con nit
tee proceeded Rich. Examiner.

We appeal then TO our readers whether Bishop
Staley has any claim - this position. whether 1t
would no: De injustice 10 Others whose tot! and
money have reared the structure, 10 place 8 com
IaratiYe stranger who has expended neither
money nor labor upon it, over those who have
literally expended both and, are IT least IS com
petent TO the work as any to be found in
the nd-an whether. if 4 layman be ap-
pointed. it should not be one who fraternizes
: with those who have expended so much time and
money upon the enterprise. Tie government is
to be commended for its enlightened and liberal
educational policy in the past, and we have no
idea that his present Majesty, educated as he has
been, in part, in the bosom of Ole of these fami-
lies, viii during his life time, permit any mate
rial change in the policy which has done so
much for his people. We look to him for its
continuance, and whatever Bishop Staley's litera-
~ or ecclesiastical attainments may be, under the
circumstances we think be is not the man for
this place, and viii not the large body of natives
and foreigners naturalized and not naturalized
feel so too? Would not the measure be both IN
popular and wrong and in this case unpopular
because it is wrong?
We do not believe that His Majesty will make
this appointment, nor can we believe that I ma
iority of His Cabinet and Privy Council of State
would so advise him.. We cannot doubt but the
appointment of Bishop Staley to this post, would
give great dissatisfaction to the great body of
people, both Protestant and Catholic, excepting
only the very small minority, probably not more
than one twentieth of the population, who
give their adherence to the Reformed Catholic
Church. We had heard the street rumor, but
like many others entirely unfounded, supposed
this to be so too, and heoce gave it no
consideration till its appearance in a communi-
cation, and we presume most of our readers
who had heard it viewed it in the same light.

n WATERspoUr OFF HoNoLULu.-on Friday even
ing, April sth. just before sunset, those who were
fortunate enough to be looking in the right direction,
saw a large waterspout two or three miles southwest
Of the harbor. There was a heavy shower raging on
the ocean, while dark leaden clouds hung in threaten
ing heavy masses overhead. The wa'erspout occurred
on the land side of the shower. A black funnel
shaped cloud projected down from the masses above,
from which q dark cylinder, perhaps two hundred
feet long, ran perpendicularly down to the surface OF
the water. The whole was perfectly distinct with clearly defined
edges. After remaining for ten minutes or so, the lower end
was dissipated in yapor, while the remainder, after assuming q
distorted shape. disappeared entirely. 1t formed a beautiful
natural phenomenon seldom seen here
