The WILD MAN OF THE WooDs.-Some
eight or ten years ago, Mr.. Isaac Adams, liy-
ing at Niu, beyond Dimond Head, having
repeatedly lost fowls, bananas, etc, in a
mysterious manner, at last discovered the
thief in the person of wild man, whose ex-
istenee in the mountains had frequently been
asserted by the natives, but had generally
been regarded as 4 myth. Setting a watch,
Adams succeeded in capturing the man, and
brought him TO town, where an enterprising
publican made some money by exhibiting
him as The Wild man of Niu." For some
months afterwards, Adams took care of the
wild man." fed, and clothed him, but he
could not be prevailed upon to speak, and
eventually ran away again TO the mountains.
Making his way along the mountain ridge of
Konahuanui, he next appeared in the neigh
borhood OF Halawa, and recommended his de-
predstions. He was occasionally seen and
chased, but eluded pursuit among the wilds
and mountain Businesses. Recently, however,
he was captured on the land of Mr.. Paiko, in
the act of pulling up watermelon vines and
plucking corn. Brought before the Police
Court on Wednesday last, on charge of
malicious injury, and addressed in three or
four different languages, he still kept silence.
After hearing the testimony, the Magistrate
sentenced him TO six months Imprisonment
at hard labor. The following day, he was at
work on the esplanade, managing wheel
barrow as skillfully as "navvy," and hav-
ing found his tongue, spoke tolerable English
and Hawaiian. There is a mystery as to
what countryman he is, and how he came
here.

AMONG the recent Treasury Regulations is
the following which is of interest to our citi-
zens and may give them chance to sell their
salt
If foreign salt is used without the limits
of the United States for curing fish of Amer
lean catch, the fish are not thereby rendered
dutiable, nor is the salt so used liable TO
duty. If salt purchased aboard for the cur
ing of fish is not consumed in the curing,
but is brought into an American port, the salt
would then be liable to duty, but the fish of
American catch, cured with such foreign salt
before importation, are free of duty"

curator of the R. H. Agricultural society's
Garden. 1t weighed somewhere about so
pounds. 1t purported TO be "White Pine

APPoINTMENT OF AN EX REBEL. = A
notable appointment of the President is that
Of James Longstreet to be Surveyor of the
Port of New Orleans He was a somewhat
famous General in the rebel army, but some
year or two since frankly and fully accepted
the situation as declared by Congress. It is
said that considerable opposition to his ap
pointment has been developed among Con.
gressmen. If Congress is honest in its recon-
struction policy, and really desires to establish
union of amity and good feeling, we cannot
see why it should object to the appointment
Of such men as Longstreet. If repentant and
reconstructed rebels are not to be trusted
aud encouraged, there can be NJ such thing
as perfect union in this country. The Union
wouid have been fully restored long ago il
Congress had been less harsh in its treatment
Of the people of the South. From the OH
jeclions urged against Longstreet we infer
that the objectors wish all the offices in the
South to be 6lled by Northern carpet baggers
and negroes

The COUNTY CuNvENTIoN-We cannot
too strongly impress upon the members Of
the Democratic County Convention, to meet
tomorrow. the importance of selecting good
mtn to represent the county in the Terrific
rial Convention Hitherto we have suffered
in the estimation Of our fellow citizens in
other parts of the Territory, BY having men
to represent US, who had little character at
home, and still less abroad. The time for
this has gone bye, and with the general iu>
provement it is proper that we should adopt
a higher standard iu selecting those who are
to represent US in nominating conventions
The high character of the gentlemen Who
compose the County Convention gives assn,
rance that only men of character and resDec
liability will be selected to represent the
county in the Territorial Convention. BY
pursuing this course WaTa walIa coun,y
VIII secure full recognition of her ips,
claims, and II some one OF her citizens tail,
to secure the nomination it will be for m,

MUST DIE The New York Eoening
Post, (radicaD says that I" if the republican
party is to live, it must be the party of
economy, the party of equal Taxation, the
party of fair play" If these are the only
conditions upon which it can live, says the
New Hampshire Patriot. it will surely die
The leopard cannot change his spots nor the
Ethiopian his skin and equally impossible
is it for radiealism to change its whole ma,
turp, and live. To expect it to practice econ
omy is folly Its idea of equal taxation is
to tax the laboring class and exempt the
wealth of the landhulders from taxation; and
it manifests fair play by giving the seats
for conservative members of Congress. elected
by sweeping majorities, to their radical con-
teStants.

TENURE OF OFFICE repeal of the
Tenure of Office Act which was passed to tie
the hands Of President johnson. is the excit
ing bill in the U S. Senate. There is no
doubt but that the Law violates the spirit Of
the Constitution and is detrimental to the
administration of the Government 1t was
passed in a mean partiEan spirit, not for the
public good. 1t is distasteful to Grant,
though he indorsed it when it applied to
johnson. The RAIDS in the House seeking
IavOrs of the administration repealed the law
with a rush. But the Senate holds on to the
power the act cOnfers upon it, The RAIDS 10
that body do not fully trust the mule rider,
hence it is extremely doubtful whether the
repeal will be effected Should the Senate
persist in refusal to repeal, more or less 'un-
pleasantness' will result, all OF which would
be in the interest of the people to the dis
comfort Of The Jacobins.
