The Valley Of st. Louis is . famous park.
II had been settled by the Spaniards for .
hundred years up to l760, when they were
compelled to fly southwark by On insurrec
ton among b e,,lndians, whom they had over.
tasked in their mining operations. Since
our Government obtained possession people
have again fockcd in, and about $4,000
white inhabitants now reside in the park.
One-half Of this interesting region is in Col
orado. This great pasture va once the bed
Of an inland sea, and is surrounded by lofty
m ,untaine. Into il flows thirty four small
streams, ~ we'll as the Rio Grandc. Nine
teen streams in the north part flow into q
lake which apparently has no outlet Abund
snde Of salt Is found on its borders. The
park has 9,4OO square miles Of level land
nearly one-quarter Of the area Of Ohio. Il
is, at its extreme points, 200 mites long and
75 wide. On . clear day nearly half this
whole park can be seen from one Of the sur.
rounding elevations. The mountains on its
borders rise from 5000 to 1000 feet above
the surface, and from ! 1000 to 10, 900 above
the sea. The northern portion is irrigated
in the Spring by high waters, and during
the umimer an immense quantity Of hay
can Be cut. It is said 1000 moving ma
chimes, kept busy during the season, would
make scarcely an impression.

The Pacific commercial advertiser. [volume] (Honolulu, Hawaiian Islands) 1856-1888, 1866-02-10

REMARKs.-The most noticeable feature in the
above statistics is the steady and rapid growth
of the manufacture of sugar. In 1856 it was
but 554 ,S05 pounds, and as late as 1860, 1T
amounted to only l, ,444 ,27l pounds, while the
product for 1865 (including home cOnsumption)
has been over 100000 pounds. This rapid
increase dates only from the outbreak of the
rebellion in America. The cultivation of rice
has also increased but the above table does not
show the actual extent. The heavy duty on
imported rice now excludes almost entirely the
foreign growth, and creates corresponding in
crease in the demand for domestic rice, which IS
now largely consumed by our Chinese popula-
ton. Rice is easily cultivated by the natives,
it requires the same system Of culture as taro,
with which, from time immemorial, they have
been familiar We estimate the product for
1865 at not far from SOC, 900 pounds cleaned
rice. The experiments made with Sea Island
cotton have been confined chiefly to natives, who
have found it, for certain localities, even more
profitable than rice. Sufficient has been grown
on each of the islands to show that no crop is
more reliable or more profitable. A plantation
of 100 acres of Sea Island cotton under the
management of foreigners, would unquestion-
ably pay a handsome profit on the investment.
In most other products there has been no great
variation from the yield of previous years.
The Whaling Interest.
During the past year, there has been an in
crease in the number of whaleships visiting these
islands The following table, prepared by the
Collector General, gives the number of whale
shins that have entered the various ports:
The Pacific commercial advertiser. [volume] (Honolulu, Hawaiian Islands) 1856-1888, 1866-02-10


Showing q gain of $33 ,449 over the income of
1864. All invoices required to have
Consular certificate attached, certifying their
correctness, under penalty Of twenty five
Per cent. added to the legal duty for the
omission. This regulation was designed to
guard against false entries, but is viewed as
unjust in its operations, especially in shipments
from distant ports. Invoices valued in depre-
ciated American currency require, in addition
to the above, Consular certificate of the value
of gold at the date of shipment
Concluding Remarks.
From the statistics which we have given, our
readers will gather that the various industries Of
these islands are prOspering beyond the results
of previous years. Not only have merchants,
traders, planters and agriculturists been pros
pered in their various callngs, but mechanics
and laborers have shared with them. The mills
in active operation, as well as the new enter
prses on foot, have created constant demand
for skilled labor, and generally Industrious
mechanics coming here have found work. The
extensive foundry in this city, which employs
about hundred persons, where as perfect
iron-work and machinery is made as in Glas-
gov or New York, is of the results Of the
sugar enterprises now springing up throughout
these islands. 1t has become n necessity,
have also numerous blacksmith shops and wheel
wrights, scattered over each island. Mechanics
are in demand, and will continue to be, 30 long
as agriculture prospers as it does. Farmers.
with limited capital, will also do well, for here
is offered field for growing cotton, rice, silk,
tobacco. fruits, and other tropical products, not
exceled in any country.

PREPARED EXPRESSLY HoSoLULU COMMERCIAL
Accompanying our Annual Statistics, it will be
gratifying to readers To have Il sketch of the
progress Of commerce and agriculture in this
Kingdom during the past year. 1t will be more
50, IA the general results only be viewed as
highly datterng, and they bespeak for our islands
continued prosperity. Not only has our foreign
commerce shown decided Improvement, but
the internal trade and business of every kind
have been remunerating and successful. Indeed
we are not aware of single failure among i'm
porters or traders having occurred in the King
dom during the year, which speaks well for the
healthiness of trade, Notwithstanding the in
creased cost of most kinds of foreign merchan-
die. Before referring to trade statistics.
make few remarks, adapted for information
abroad well as here, regarding
The Islands and their Population.
They are in number twelve, the eight larger
being inhabited; the total population, according
to the last census, being nearly 10000. The
following table will serve for reference in this
connection
The Pacific commercial advertiser. [volume] (Honolulu, Hawaiian Islands) 1856-1888, 1866-02-10

REMARKs.-The new tariff, changing the duty
from FIVE to ten per cent. ad valorem on imported
goods, went into operation in 1861, when the
importations fell off largely, but they have since
rapidly recovered, till those of the present year
for the first time exceed those of any previous
one. The decrease in the consumption of spirits
has been caused by the large falling off in the
number of seamen attached to foreign vessels
visiting this port.
Supply Ports.
The following table will indicate the countries
from whence the dutiable merchandise imported
into this Kingdom is obtained. and the value
from the same countries in the previous year
The Pacific commercial advertiser. [volume] (Honolulu, Hawaiian Islands) 1856-1888, 1866-02-10

The official statistics, published in San Fran
cisco, place the exports to these islands higher
than given above. They stated to have
been S735, ,69l-but outward manifests are not
SO reliable as the invoices of importers. Our
trade with that port will largely increase each
year, especially now as steam is coming to its
aid. Nearly, if not quite, one-half our i'm
ports are from the United States, while three
fourths of our exports are to the same country.
The value of Hawaiian sugar alone, taken by
California, amounted in 1865 to 1862 ,6l7, and
that of molasses added will swell the sum to
over one million, while the duty paid to the
United States, on these two articles alone is
over four hundred thousand dollars
The Pacific commercial advertiser. [volume] (Honolulu, Hawaiian Islands) 1856-1888, 1866-02-10

losses among the North Pacific fleet, as well rs the
few casualties among it, have been often remark
ed in connection with the high premiums paid
for insurance, and it is worthy the consideration
of underwriters whether the risks this branch
of the marine service are not less than have been
heretofore estimated.
The Foreign Imports.
For the past year, show q considerable gain
over those of the previous. The following en-
braces the principal items of merchandise I'M
ported and the value of the same
The Pacific commercial advertiser. [volume] (Honolulu, Hawaiian Islands) 1856-1888, 1866-02-10

dcate, the transportation of foreign goods has
been less, while the domestic produce exported
is some three hundred thousand dollars more.
In all probability, our exports for the current
year will exceed two millions. In connection
with the above, the following table. which we
have prepared, will exhibit the exports of domes-
tic produce for period of ten years
The Pacific commercial advertiser. [volume] (Honolulu, Hawaiian Islands) 1856-1888, 1866-02-10
domestic produced during the past year

The value of our exports, as given by the same
authority, is $l.SOS ,257 So, an increase of
Sl46, 900 over those of the previous year. The
gain is really more than the above figures in
