nobly doing its share so far as this war

the whole State to contribute when 1t

Reception of Minister Allen at
- washington.

His Honor Chief Justice ALLEN arrived at
Washington, and has been presented to Presi-
dent Lincoln as Envoy Extraordinary and Min
lister Plenipotentiary from the Court of Hawaii
early in June. We find the following report of
the reception in the Sacramento Union, copied
from an Eastern paper
The President has given an audience OF reception
To Elisha II. Allen, Envoy Extraordinary and Minis
ter Plenipotentiary of His Majesty Kamehameha,
King of the Hawaiian Islands. Allen, in presenting
his credentials, said "You are aware that citizens
Of the United States residing in the Hawaiian King
dom oufnumber all other foreigners, and have q very
large interest in trade. commerce and agriculture.
The commercial relations with the United States,
which are constantly increasing in Importance, and
the geographical position OF the island as well, render
some further treaty stipulation desirable and highly
important. The rapid growth OF that portion Of the
United States bordering on the Pacific in production
and commerce renders the products Of the islands of
great value 10 it, and the constantly increasing trade
of equal importance to the islands. The desire of
the King is TO foster the great interests SO mutually
advantageous. by the mos, liberal policy, and he feels
assured, from the history of the past interviews with
the Government of the United States. that the same
spirit will mark its course in the future"
To which the President replied Sir: In every
light in which the state Of the Hawaiian Islands
can be contemplated, ii is an object of profound in
terest to the United States. Virtually IL was once a
colony. Ii is now a near and Intimate neighbour; 1t
is a haven Of shelter and refreshment for our mer-
chants. fishermen, seamen and other citizens, when,
on their lawful occasions, they are navigating the
eastern seas and oceans. Its people are free, and its
laws, language and religion are largely the fruits of
our own teachings and example. The distinguished
part which you, Mr.. Minister, have acted in the his
tory of that interesting country, is well known here.
1t gives me pleasure TO assure you OF my sincere de-
sire to do what | can to render your sojourn in the
United States agreeable to yourself, satisfactory 10
your Sovereign, and beneficial to the Hawaiian peo-

The Foreign News.

The barks Onrdrd and Li>eie bring us more
stirring news than has been received here for some
time past. Our latest telegraphic dates from
Washington are to the 10th of July, and from
San Francisco we have papers to the 18th. The
principal items are: the rebel raid into Mary
iland-the sinking of the AIa5ama-the capture of
3 900 prisoners by Gen. Sherman near Atlanta
the re-opening of the war in Denmark-and the
extraordinary rise of gold in New York to 300 !
We will refer to each briefly.
Respecting the rebel raid into Maryland, the
news is contradictory and meagre as to facts.
From the numerous kilograms, we gather the fol-
lowing. The rebel forces numbering &c, 900 to
25 900 men left Richmond about July I, under
Breckenridge, Imboden and Early, and compelled
Hunter to fall back into Western Virginia. They
then advanced rapidly down the Shenandoah,
driving Sigel into Harper's Ferry, and then to
Maryland Heights. On the 18th of July they
crossed the Potomac, from Point of Rock; to
Harper's Ferry, and made Rockville (about fifteen
miles northwest of Washington and FIVE miles
from the P~otomac) their base of supplies or head
quarters. On the 9th fully they met the Union
Gen. Lew. Wallace at the Monocacy River. and
compelled him to retreat towards Baltimore.
They then sent out squads in every direction TO
destroy railroads, bridges and houses, and gather
all the booty they could find. Droves of horses,
cattle. pigs, sheep. &C., &c, were driven by them
over the Potomac, apparently with little molesta-
ton. The panic among the Maryland people was
great. In Baltimore the bells rang Ut midnight,
and . 1000 citizens enrolled themselves as soldiers
to guard the city.
At the latest adyiees (July 1G) the rebels were
still in Maryland. ome having gone towards
Point Lookout, east of Washington, to release
20, 900 rebel prisoners confined there. The bulk
of the forces had returned to the Potomac, and
some accounts say were recroSsing it. Advices by
the Lizzie, however, report that the rebels ex-
pected rsinforcemenis from Richmond and also
