Ii We publish telegraph reports, people
say they are lies.
Ii We emit them, they say we have no
enterprise, Or suppress them for political
effect
If we have in few jokes, people say
we are a rattlehead.
If we omit them, they say we are an
old fossil.
If we publish original matter, they
damn US for not giving selections.
If we publish selections, men say VIC
are lazy for not writing more and giving

If we give man a complimentary
notice, then we are censured for being

If we do not, all hands say we are a
greedy hog.
If we insert an article that pleases the
ladies, men become Jealous.
If we do not cater to their wishes. the
paper is not fit TO have in the house.
If we attend church, they say it is only

If we don't, they denounce us as deceit
full and desperately wicked.

among it's passengers small but select

take place on the succeeding day in the
vicinity of New Haven. Finally reach

the narrowest and dirtest streets in New

is the anniversary of the patron Saint OF Old Eng
land. BY advertisement in to-dny's paper, it will be
seen that a meeting is called on the evening OF that
day at Z O'Clock, of the members of the ST. Georges
Benevolent Society. This Association, like kindred
organizations i'll Honolulu of other nationalities, has
done no little good among the sick and destitute Of
their compatriots. Its objects are purely benevolent
and charitable, and it should therefore enlist the
synpdthies and support of every Englishman.

OFFICIAL NoTIFIcATIoSs.-For the information of
those of our readers who do not take the government
Gazette, for the reason that they decline to patronize
n ministerial speculation that i~nterferes with private
enterprise, we shall hereafter each week compile a
summary Of the official and legal notices which are
published in the organ. In Wednesdays paper we
find the following:
Stephen II. Phillips is appointed a member of the

Capt. James Smith, rs pilot for the port of Homo

all invoices of . Return Goods, Empty Bags, &c."
intended to be entered free, must be accompanied by
the Hawaiian Consul's, of port Of shipment, certiti-
cate, that they are the same goods and in original
packages as shipped from this port.
The Board of Education adyertises for an 90 Assist

STRAWBERRIES. This fruit is becoming more
abundant, and meets with a ready sale at exhorbit-
ant prices. Some are of enormous size and of much
better flavor than the fruit of former years raised in
this vicinity, and remind one of home and langsyne.
By the way, everybody does not know the derivation
of the word strawberry. 1t came about thus. In
olden times, in England, the country lads and lasscs
used to bring them to market strung on straws, and
hence the came. -

SPEED OF THE TELEGRAPH.-Recently a dispatch
was sent by telegraph from San Francisco to Liver
pool, leaving the former place at twelve O'Clock,
and an answer was received at twenty minutes past
four-four hours and twenty minutes from the start
ing point. The message had to be repeated back
from four different stations. 1t is not unfrequent for
messages between New York and San Francisco to
receive replies within the same hour, though they
more often have to wait hours, owing to press of
business or other causes.

ABoUr WHIrEw ASKING. Nothing adds more 10
the beauty and attractiveness Of I city or village than
70 sc its cottages surrounded with clean and neatly
kept premises. Strangers ON landing here remark
= how green and charming everything appears -
Compared with the dry and barren hills of san
Francisco the contrast i very great. But even
among cur own villages there is a great contrast, as
any one will observe who leaves the green grass,
neatly-paintel cottages and whitewaShed fences Of
Hila, and cutters the dry and dusty streets of Laha-
ina. Much Of this dilapidatel appearance may be
removed by keeping fences and outhuildingS coated
with whitcwaSh, and as Il wash well prepared and
put on will outiast three coats slovenly done, we in-
sert the following from a farming journal for ne
information of such rs wish to try a good recipe:

A New MoDE.-The late Legislature of Kansas
passed a law prohibiting the granting of licenses to
retail liquor in any town or ward, unless n majority
of the men and women petitioned for the license. If
that were the law in all countries, there would not
be many places open for retailing liquor as nearly
all the women, and certainly half the men, would
refuse to sign such q petition. That is certainly a
most effective temperance movement.
LITHoGRAPHY.-We have seen some very credit
able specimens of photographic printing, done at the
book-bindery. 1t is a native song, with music, COM
posed by the Hon. Mrs. Lydia X Dominis. For
music and certain kinds Of work, photography will
supply a desideratum long felt here.
The AMERICAN AGRICULTURIsT-To our farming
friends in search of an instructive and interesting
farming monthly, We can commend this as among
the very best of publications issued especially for
farmers. 1t is illustrated, and filled with a great
variety of reading matter. a few sets from Janu-
ar, 1867, can be supplied at the bookstore.

SPERM WHALEs.-Capt. Hathaway, of the Lydia,
reports having seen a large school of sperm whales off
Kohala, which he estimates were not far from a hun
dred in number. He succeeded in capturing three.
The coast of Hawaii between Kealakekua and Kohala,
was in old times a favorite resort for whalers, and
many a sparm" has been picked up there. Ad-
miral Abe Russell could tell of u number of good
fares which he has taken in that neighborhood when
he was in command of a whaleship.
