The CONCERT OF SATURDAY NIGHT.-The
second concert of the Amateurs of Engine
Company No. 2, came off at the Theatre on
Saturday evening last, before large and APP
preciative audience. II was a complete sue
cess, and quite equal TO the first performance
of the company. The music was good and
the singing excellent, though We may remark,
en- pdssd'it, that strong bass was missed in
the chorus. 1t would be invidious to partic-
ularize, where all were so well up in their
parts, but we must say that Messrs. Hes and
Hilton, as end men and comedians, proved
themselves the stars of the evening, and
kept the house in continual uproar. Jas.
Hes makes, in appearance and speech, first
rate imitation of down South" darkie,
and James Hiton's recitation was a splendid
imitation of the real Pennsylvania Dutchman.
B. P. Ober's song, Twilight Dews," accom-
panying himself on the guitar, drew down
the plaudits of the house, and he was repeat
edly eneored, as was also the young violinist,
Master Mclean. The dancing too, was really
NM oANnoHeA ooo. DNHASai onS Va ehS uou-
GERS, was said to be unwell at the time. The
Hawaiian Duett," by two Hawaiians-one
of whom was Mr.. D. Eldridge, the compo-
ser of the piece-was really beautiful. Mr..
Herrick's cornet solo was well appreciated.
The performance concluded with laughabIe
burlesque of scene in BARRIERS shop, and
was over at about ten o'clock The audience
departed, well pleased with the entertain
ment, more than ever convinced that we have
in Honolulu, talents of the musical and COM
ical order, amply sufficient to entertain the
public.

The STEAMER.-Aecording to private adj
vices received by the Cambridge, the Idaho
was expected to leave San Francisco on the
26th or 9th ult She would then be due to-
day or tomorrow, and we may expect, at
last, to get some news from the outer world.
The withdrawal of the other steamer from
the line makes itself severely felt by our COM
munity, aud is deadly blow to an editor
anxious to see his paper well replenished
with late and stirring news.

The REVERE HoUsE.-Mr. Loller having
been necessitated to relinquish the manage
ment of the above well-known establish
ment, it was sold out, and purchased by
an enterprising Chinaman named All Hon,
whose card appears in today's paper. Under
the new management, the old reputation of
the house for superiority of cookery, good
yiands, and promptitude of service, will be
fully maintained, if not excelled, as All Hon,
in his former place of business, has made
many friends.

THE POLICE CoUET-Judge Montgomery,
having been somewhat i'll, for several days
past, and consequently unable to come to the
duties of his office, Mr. L. McCully, chief
clerk of the Supreme Court has been ap-
pointed to act temporarily as Police Magis-
trate. The selection is very fitting one, as
Mr. McCuly is not only very well-read law
yer, but has had experience on the bench, hay
ing for several years filed the post of Police
Magistrate of Hilo. We are pleased to hear
that Mr.. Montgomery is conyaleseent, and
will probably be at his post to-day.

DEATH again has taken away one from our
midst. Last Thursday night, Mr. b. Hill
lebrand, brother of Dr. Hillebrand, died at the
early age OF IS. he had been severely suffer
ing for some time from disease of the liver
and death to him has been relief. Nor did
he fear it; dying as he had lived, Ike true
Christian in thought, word and deed, and
solemnly accompanied TO MS grave, by the
last blessing of that same Holy Church, that
had kindly received him from his cradle.
Many were the friends, on Sunday afternoon,
that followed him to his last resting place,
deeply regretting the loss of true and faith
full heart-always generous and always ready
to help the needy and afflicted He was SON
in-law to Rev. Artemas Bishop, one of our

MEASURING LAND-Almost every farmer
has some way of measuring land, and the
most common is to step of i've PAGES for q
rod, and call sixty BY seventy-five PAGES en-
acre For common purposes this mode will
answer very well, but when the exact meas
urement Of piece of land Is desired, it can
not be depended upon as being at all accurate
When once field has been correctly
measured. a man knows exactly how
much seed will be required TO put it to grain
and also the exact yield per acre of any crop
he may see ct to put upon it. A light pole
just sixteen and half feet long, is cheap
and convenient measure; but four-rod tape
line is much better.

table Of distance by which an exact acre can
be fou1d:

A MoLAssEs sHIP.-The Atlantic Works
at East Boston, are building an iron brig
Of about $50 tons for the purpose of car
rying molasses from the West Indias She
is built in compartments, so as to bring
the molasses in bulk instead of hogshead
as is now the Custom. and will have car
rying capacity of about 800 hogsheads
1t is estimated that this method will make
very large saving in the transportation
of this article, and if it proves successful
will be generally introduced. The brig
will be completed about the first of Janu-

LONGEVITY OF CoISs.-The longevity of
coins has been much reduced since railways
came into being. They are in continual mo-
tion from the time of their birth, and the
poor sixpence especially is short-liyed, in
consequence of being overworked. II one
man in his time plays many parts,n assuredly
one coin in its turn buys many times its
value. A certain charge is made annually in
the mint estimates for covering the loss ac
cruing from the loss of worn shillings and
sixpences. Theses are bought of the Bank Of
England at their nominal value, and, Of
course are bad bargains for the coming es-
adjustment, which recasts and then rejoins
them into money of full legal weight The
last amount granted for the purchase of
worn silver coin amounted to $4,000, or
800, 600 shillings, and this was supposed TO
represent at the extent Of Que years (1S60
abrasion and deterioration of the silver coin
age of the United Kingdom. Experience de-
mOnstrates that the annual loss Of silver by
attrition of coins is, In these days of trading
activity, much greater in value than this, al

ted away in one year by friction Is set down
