come, and would give way 10 him. Quick as a
wink, Mr.. King was on his feet, and laying his
hand ON the Governors shoulder, said, I" am
glad we have here the coming Daaa, " referring to
Mr.. Lowe, who was a few days after elected Gov
ernor of the State. This happy allusion brought
down a torrent of applause. Ar. King, on TAX
ing the stand, apologized for being late, and said
the cause of it was he had just attended a anon
meeting of another kind, which was entirely I'M
expected, at which he had to unite a man and
woman in marriage-the best kind of union meet
ings-and hoped, as the audience were all Union
men, his apology would be acce pied. His adj
dress was replete with incidents and anecdotes,
interspersed with sound moral and political teach
ings, and for an hour or more lie kept his audi
ence chained with thrilling eloquence. He closed
by saying that he had been asked to state at the
meeting which of the two tickets citizens ought
TO vote. He said he should leave them to make
their own choice but" said he, - after YOU
have chosen your ballot, take down your Union
mIskets, roll up your ballot carefully, take aim,
and fire LOao" (Lowe) Such applause as this
address brought out, we have never witnessed
anywhere else. At its close. the band struck UP
the national battle-song, " John Browns soul is
a marching on and the whole audience joined
in the chorus, making the building fairly shake.
1t was worth, as we remarked 10 a companion, a
voyage across the Pacific to hear such an address
and such singing from q choir of four thousand
persons.
Starr King did great service in the Union cause
in California, and to him more than any other
man is that State indebted for the loyal sentiment
prevailing there. When his death was announced
at Washington, the Government sent orders to
San Francisco that all the national flags be low
cred, and at its order, on the day of his funeral,
the two forts opposite the city fired minute guns
in his honor-a token of respect that private citi-
zens rarely ever receive. On the receipt of the
news in Honolulu the American Minister very
appropriately lowered the flag of the legation for
three days in respect to Mr.. Kings memory. \
full account of his death and funeral will be
found in the Aha and Bulletin of the 18th of
March.

TTaE FRIEND.-This little quarto, now running
through its twenty first year, appeared on our table
promptly on the first of the month. Ii fills q gap
that no other publication here has ever done, and IT'S
indefaiigable editor manages always to End some
thing new and novel to issue in IL Among other
articles we find a code Of laws Of the Friendly Is
lands, very much resembling our original code Of
Hawaiian laws, FIRST published in 1910, SO simple and
concise that a lawyers occupation was not worth
much. As We advance in civilization, each subject
is thought by our legislators to merit a separate chapter with a
score u sections and frequent amendments, rendering the ser
vice of a legal adviser Indispensable. Among the laws in the
Friendly Island code referred TO, is the following, which we
should like to see established here. where cocosnCt and ether
trees are ruthlessly Gu: down every year, to the derriaeni Of
Of our agricultural interests:
XXX. The Iar concerning Cocoanut Trees.
If any one wish TO cut down . cocoAnut tree he mus. first
plant three cocoanuts, and then cut down the tree, but should
he cut down the tree and neglect 70 plant the mats, he shall De

THURSDAY, NOVEMBER a, 1861.


Thanksgiving Day comes to-day, the
Oath day of November For victories
by land and sea, for bounteous and
overlooking harvesis, for the preserys-
ton of our national honorand intsgri=
ty, for the additional star that has
come out Of the eclipse Of obscurity to
glow and burn uF6tn our national ban
ner, for the deliseranoe and preserve
ton from pestilence, we. are called
upon to give thanks. And whereas The
citizen, that thinking over the record
of the past year, does not feelIhis heart
throb with pride land thankfulness for
such gIorio1s record.
But the day demands other thoughts
and other services, az we'll as these
With the loud pcan Of victory and tri-
umph comes also the wall Of the faith
erless, the groans Of the suffering. and
the faint entreaties of the starving,
In our own city, 10 day, hundreds are
suffering for clothes, for food, for
warmth Tomany an &Efortanate has
the gaunt spectre Of starvation appear
ed, pointing with long and boay fingers
10 the grave, as the last refuge to
esrth's weary ones. Last night, men,
women and children, were starving in
our midst Benumbed with cold, faint
with hunger, weak from exposure, 'hu-
man beings died almost within speak
ing distance Of those dwellings where
luxury and case brooded, and where
plenty dgelt Nor can it be said 81
am not my brothers keeper" That
was the plea of the first fratricide.
But we say not these words to re
proach or .censure, but to wake up the
dormant sympathies Of those beneVo-
lent hearts that have but to know these
things, to make an effort to relieve
them. And while in thousands of
homes the day will pass with mirth and
pleasure, we hope those,who are suffer,
ing viii not be forgotten. The consci-
business of kind deeds performed, of
hearts made glad, viii add keen
relish TO all the pleasures of the day,
and like a benson Of peace hover over
the record of LIES deeds Let some
concerted action upon this matter be
taken and tine day will then be made q
Thanksgiving day indeed. -

this glorious Republic, the success Of
which, whether'in arms or otherwise,
We are truly grateful
