Once More.

The Ministers, in the last Gazette, try hard 10
sQuirm cut of the unpleasant position in which
their hasty and injudicious chase after Capt.
Hanham has placed them. We are not anxious
70 have the last word TO say on this subject. and
simply refer TO it, 10 show the weak points of
their argument. They produce a private letter
from Capt. H. TO show that he intended to 20
- with all speed to England Every one knew
that. but every one knew also that he had Mr..
Mason on board as well as Maria at the time
he wrote, and that he intended 10 land Mr.. n.
as well as the girl, and the latter states most
positively that she had no idea of going to Eng
land and was not prepared for the voyoge, and
that he did not wish her TO 60. Now all this
tells against the ministry. The note of Capt.
Hanham which they published, if it proves any
thing. proves too much. e., that he intended
also to take Mr.. Mason to England.
Capt. Hanham wrote TO Mr.. Austin a full
and lengthy statement Of the whole trouble, in
which he recOunts the origin Of the affair and
gires all has reasons. We have again requested
this letter for publication. but have been met
with q positive refusal, as its contents are, we
suppose, construed TO be injurious TO the minis
try. They dare not allow the publication of
Capt. Hanham's full statement, as it carries con-
viction on its face. In proof of the fact that
it was not a vindication of the laws which was
sought for, Capt. II. states that when the gov
eminent officer boarded him the first time, he
wished only the girl Maria, and if she was given
up he might take the other persons of. At that
time it was supposed that Capt. H. had on board
f'co natire females and one man. He further
says-(we quote from memory)-In a conversa-
ton between the principals in this affair, one
says, You must not take this woman of, it would
damage the cause Of our church in England,
probably alluding to the begging expedition un-
der the lead of the Bishop Of Oxford. But if
Maria was returned, and the others were allow
ed to 60 on, would it not be equally damaging
TO the interests of : our church?" So that, it
appears from Hanham's statement, that it was
not SO much the - vindication of the laws as
. our church which was at the bottom Of the
whole fuss. Out on such hypocricy!

RoUGH WEATHER.-The schooner Eineline on her
last trip from Kona, suffered considerable damage
from the gale. She shipped several heavy seas,
which washed her decks. filed her hold with three
or four feet of water. stove in her bulwarks. and
damaged nearly all the cargo on board. A general
average has been made Of the losses sustained.
Other schooners that have arrived report the same
