THE STEAMER oNTINENTAL-"-Th propeller
steamer Continental. says the Alta of the oath of
April. with her precious cargo Of female passen-
gers. was passed by the Golden Age on her up trip,
and was expected to arrive that day. There will
be plenty of employment for them on that coast. if
they understand the mysteries of housekeeping and
are willing to labor. There is not yet. nor likely
t. be for years. a surplus of females on that
coast who are willing to turn their attention to
industrial pursuits.

No SECT N HrAvrx..-we copy the following

No SECT IN HEAvEN."-We copy the following
from "a late number of the Boston COHgre90ttoHdtiSt
We find in an exchange paper an allusion to the fact that
the popular and unique little poem, mo Sect in Heaven Is
having a great circulation in England. II is sold in packages
circulated. 1t is pleasant fog us tC recall that it was first pub
lished in the COngregdtiOndiiSt. being written for our paper by
the wife OF Rev. J. b. cleveland, Of New Hartford, Conn.
We rcpubIished that popular and unique little
poem = in our columns some two years ago, and it
called forth one of the most remarkable poetical
illusions. which was published in the PolyneSian,
of April Is. 1868. The writer has never yet allow
ed his name to be attached to that efIsion. Will
not the late editor of the POynesima favor the lite
rary world with the name of the poet whose muse
indjted the following lines:
- Though others by bye passes may sneak up to God,
Yet, the Catholic Christian is sure of his road.
He will pray for the infdel, hereto, jew,
Ard if you're a dissenter he will pray, sir, for you"
On the week following this publication, a writer,
under the nom de plume of B" John Bunyan,r sent
for publication in our columns THE Puritan's Re
sponse.' com mencing thus:
Here's to the health Of the bigot, whoever he may be,
Who rhymes without reason Of the immaculate IRE" &c.
We think many of the good people of England
who are reading with SO much interest the original
poem. No Sect in Heaven would be equally
interested in the illusions of the Honolulu poets.

UiI0 ns ~ C0nI Depot.

Mr.. EDITOR SIR During my tour on Hawaii
view Of its capacious harbor, led to inquire why
the China line of steamers would not find it advan-
tageous to stop at this rather than at any other
port of the islands. The barbor of HilO is said to
be perfectly safe in all weather. is easy of access,
with sufficient water in the channel and harbor Tor
the largest ships, even if they draw thirty feet.
The Government would no doubt grant the Com
pany sufficient room there for a coal depot free Of
any expense. Streams Of water, | am informed,
empty into the harbor flowing directly from the
snow clad mountain, which water is free to all.
Perhaps the company might find it to their advan-
tage to give this matter a serious thought.
TRAVELLER
ZEG~ We learn that Rev. Thomas Thurston has
received an invitation from the residents of Wailu-
ku and vicinity, to locate among them az pastor,
the call having received the names Of about fifty
responsible foreigners, who propose 30 erect "a
church for his accommodation, Mr.. Thurston has
preached several times in Hoaolulu, and has been
received with great favor as an earnest preacher.
He has before him a new and growing feld-prob-
ably the largest, wealthiest and most enteTprising
Of any district out of honolulu.
ES- An attempt will be made to-day. we learn
to expcl the member from Waialua from the As
sembly, for contempt, in not taking his seat yester-
day. The public will have an opportunity Of Wit
Messing what impartiality rules there.

SOLAR PHENOMENON. On Tuesday
afternoon last, a beautiful and, in our
climate, most unusual sight, appeared
in the Western sky, about one hour
before sunset. An intelligent gen
tleman, who had an opportunity of
observing the ''sign in the heavens, ;"
from an open field, saw, at one time,
fddr distinct suns, all enclosed in one
grand rainbow circle, of which the
true sun was the centre. There was
u mock sun perpendicular above, and
one on the right, and one on the left
OF the real. The lower part of the
luminous circle disappeared a little
below the horizon. The sky was
slightly hazy and clouded. A laborer,
present with the gentleman who has
described the phenomenon, predicted
bad weather; and, sure enough, we
have since been visited by most album
dant rain, Wednesday night and
Thursday, up to the time of going to
press.-GreenciNe rs. c. Enterprise

DUTcH CURE FOR DRUNKENNESS. -
The following cure for drunkenness
is practlced in Holland:
The patient is shut up in room,
and debarred all communication, ex-
cept with his physician. AS often as
he pleases, spirits-brandy, whiskey,
gin, etc.-are given him, but mixed
with two-thirds of water; all other
drinks, such as beer, coffee, wine,
etc, are mixed with one-third of
brandy. The various viands, too,
that are furnished him-bread, meat,
etc.-are all prepared with brandy;
consequently the patient is in state
of continual intoxication. This lasts
about five days; at the end of that
time he asks with entreaty for other
nourishment, without his request
being complied with, and not until
his organs absolutely abhor alcohol.
The cure is complete, and from that
period the very smell of spirits pro-
duces on him the effect of an emetic
