We Au,erkins, an every body else that likes it, can hnd Al
We want, an more III, in our hum papers Nv that sort Of ntn'
an I hope VI wont stir up the indiguashun OF guide natered
folks in the community, bi Eivln US any moro Nv SIGH useless an
onsuteabe iniurmashun. L; faint no more rite, Mr. Edi'ur'
fur yu tu du that air sort NV thing, than 'tgud he fur sum Nv our
preachers tn stand up in meein an sal insultin things that
"ud hav no effect on thos wot heered him, but TO max them Zeal
ugly an III driy 'em away. This Honolulu pubik that yure pa
per is su2posd III represent, yu no, ; a mixed lot; FuSt Gums
the people IN the kunuy, an the Government wIoh takes keer
NV our ls an purtecks our st3ks in traid, house-hNins, an clos
an the like frum them China thieves. wot sumbody thinks We
amt got enuf in the kuntry. Then thairs us Amerikins full Nv
ginger, an alus rely an walin. as thay ot to be. tn pitch intu
anybody that treds on thar toes, or thinks he's ami better or nos
eni more than thay du. Then thars the Jarnins, tibet minds
THAR own bizness, an grows rich, while thay larf at the darnd
fools w0t ar 4 melhn an tryin tn wigle themselves an THAR
friends in,u this ere Government
Then thairs the Britishers, that air born an brot up to beiev
in St. George an the Dragin, most on en- without knoin or csrin
who or wot he was. Every one on 'em, wots rich enuf tn see
4 sovern. knos that he's jst. as guide on THAR gold, as our Am
erikin eagle, is on owrn, an that's enuf. It's nobody elses biz
ness an thave a rite tn think wot thay like about him. Wot
if the British here air tryln III be pompus, an put on airs in
consequence Nv wot their granfathers dun, that's all rite tu, fur
THAR g~ranfathers air our CRATE CRATE granfathers, an 1 don't see
why We shouldn't simperthise in that air sort of feelin. Then
If We hav'nt got haf so big a nashunal Diet, tn brag abeout,
perhaps we will hav, hi the time we put a stop to this infurnal
rebellion Nv ourn, that wud hav upset the strongest monarky in
Europe in a week. Wun reason why the Britshers here think
that we air the proudest an sarciest nashun on airth, is becos
thay air JUS" the same, an every body knos thar never was yet
tw folks NV the same temper wOt agreed.
Then we've got a few Frenchmen who air mostly clergimen,
an who don't seak govurnment aid nor govurnment appointments,
nor medic with poitiks or anithin wot isn't thar bizness here.
Wun Frenchman tho has got charge NV the Govurnment muney
bags, an frum wOt little I've seen, so fur, 1 reckon he's jit "the
rite maj in the rte place" as thay sa wen riting abeout publk
officers. Then we've got a sprinklin NV the better elias NV
Chinese an all sorts NV Portergeese that yure paper dos'nt truble
much any way.
1 tel. WI, Mr.. Editor, if yu never thort NV it afore, that yuve
got a mitey tikilish sort NV a perSishun in this ere community,
as the editur NV the only noospaper.
Pubhk opinion, IN this ere little MKT up community, is like
mi old Tom cat, yu can smuthe his back deown the rite way, an
he'll let yu du anythin with him yu air a mind tn; but yu jBt
undertak tn Civ him a rub up Gginst me grain, an he'll spit
an skratch, an likely enuf, du yu sum damige-anhow he wont
tn ink Nv the guide yuve dun him afore, but he'll keap clear NV
yu fur a long time arter. Now if you'd bin deoun on the kor-
ner, that mornin yure paper cum out with yure piece abeout st.
George, yu wud hav concluded frum the remarks maid, that
pubhck opinion had bin rubbed the r"ng way, an hop yu'l tax
mi advis, as a friend, who knos sumthin abeout "human natur,''
an not pepper any luther nashunal dinner in the way w did the
Britishers the luther day, jst afore thay st deoun tn it. If yu
don't wish tn simpathise with luther folks hum associashuns, sa
nuthin abeout 'em. Thay don't hurt anybody, an yu don't du
the publick, whom va air supposed to doctur, ami guide hi maxim
fun NV 'em. We hav all cum here tugether NV our own free
will, Mr.. Ediur, an thars no reeson why we shud liv, like cats
and dogs in the same garrit, an be etarnally snappin at each
luther. An then agin, now that our folks tn hum hav got THAR
hands full NV ftin them rebels, an THAR British men-uv-war, we
sartinly don't want 'em tn think we air so hard prest out here,
that we kant keep tn windward NV the Britishers without trien
tn pizen THAR diners.
last paper abeout mi notes NV admirashun fur mi friend 81. B..
by sain thay was ekal to mi old friend the judges ritins, tikled
me so, that I've rt the abuv letter of private advice tween yu
and me, as a site return fur the compliment.
Hopin yuTl tax 1t kindly, believe me,
Yure everlastin friend, SAM SLICK.
