Colonel Hail.

Col. HALLS effort at Newbern on Satur-
day is most highly spoken of. 1t seems to
have worried the Editor of the Republican
very much, who consumes the most of the
space in the next issue of that paper in
fruitless attempts to do away with its effects.

SPIRITS TURPENTINE-The market On Friday
last opened rather dull under less favorable adj
vices from abroad, and during the day decline
took place of l@l3 cent, closing with sales at 81
there being but little DISPOSE ion on the part of
buyers to operate, and only one small lot sold at
60 cents. This feeling continued during Monday,
which resulted in further decline, and 5SI cents
WAS the ruling figure of the day. On Tuesday
there was a better enquiry, and more frmness was
manifested on the part of buyers, and portion
of the decline above noted was regained, sales
being effected at 60 cents, at which figure the
market has since ruled quite firm, owing, how
ever, to the meagre receipts, and the want of
stock, the transactions have been limited. We
quote sales of 928 bbls as follows

2ELL'S RAW BONE PHOSPHATE,
FOR
COTTON, TOBACCO, CORN, OATS,
Wheat, Rye. Potatoes. Turnips, Cab
bage, Grass. &c.

This article is made OF Pure Raw Bones and
Phosphate Guano, rendered to soluble FORM and
contains the requisite quantity of A1onoonld to
stimulate the young plants to get beyond the
reach of insects; and also large amount of
Phosphoric Acid, to give strength and stability to
the stalk and weight to the grain.
1t excelH Peruvian Guano in setting Clover,
makes heavier yield and superior quality of Cot
ton, Tobacco, Grain, &c; and stands the drought
better, all of which are very important to the
Planter.
For this valuable Fertilizer we only ask fair
trial side by side with any Fertilizer in the mar
ket. to attest it's superiority. 1t is active as
Peruvian Guano for the first crop, and for sue
ceeding crops far superior.
Every Planter should give it a trial, as the cost
is more than repaid the first year, and its benef-
cial effects lasting.
Fine and dry for drilling.

HONOLULU, April is, 1885,
rnaer date of the Sd inst. wrote that We had ex-
nerienced shocks OF earthquake, that the volcano
uawai was active and that we awaited with some
anxietv the arrival OF the from that island,
ane the next day. The Kilauea arrived promptly
bringing news that only heightened the anxiety.
On the 27th of March friday slight shocks OF earth
uuake were felt throughout the forenoon increasing
in violence towards night; at the same time smoke
was seen issuing from the summit Of Mauna Loa.
From Kau on the south endof the island the shocks
were more distinct but commenced Friday night, as
many as thirty shocks being experienced during the
night From daylight Saturday morning, 2sth,
until one in the afternoon ninetyseven shocks were
counted. Between one and two O'Clock very
severe shock was felt, which caused the
houses and trees to sway backward and
forward, throwing crockery and other articles
from the shelves in dwellings and stores.
MANY frame houses were moved from their foun-
dations, while stone buildings were badly cracked,
In some instances rendered untenable. Walls fell,
causing a laundering noise. The earth moved like a
troubled sea, filling the air with dust Up to Sunday
night, at which time my informant wrote, over 500
shocks had been experienced.
