QUEEN EMMA AT HoME.-A correspon

from Honolulu concerning Queen Enlma,
whose visit to the United States will be ie-
membercd
81 saw and recognized the once beautiful
md still fine looking Queen oI Kamehame
ha Ill. | saw her first at her summer resi-
dcncc in Nuuanu Valley. She reclinod up
on mats and pillows in the Oriental style. A
broad verandah made a most refreshing
shade, and as she offered us dish of edible
bark, Ga little like slippery elm, but very
tender,) or some fruits, her grace and dlgni-
ty were singularly pleasing. She seemed
some pastoral goddess, born to rule her sub
jects with love and gcntleness, and indeed
she is such. Her only coronet was of wild
| flowers, which are very generally worn here
by both sexes, and most becoming SO. Chains
of flowers and berries hung about her neck
also, giving out an agreeable odor There
was no Formally observed, even by her
workman, whom she was overseeing in per-
son. Her gardener came at her call, and,
sitting on the steps of the verandah, laugh
ed and argued with her as freely ms possible;
yet no one could feel inclined to presume
upon such modest dignity.

of the largest as yet built. and long towns of
barges laden with grain are constantly de-
scending the Mississippi 1t is reported that
one steamer recently towcd down liz, 900
bushels of wheat. The western papers are
seriously alarmed at the competition of this
new route, and are earnestly calling for a
reduction of charges on the transportation
of grain. The freight on the Erie Canal
alone, it is asserted. is greater than the rate
from Dubuque to New Orleans. On the sub
ject of the Erie Canal, the New York Post
says "Sell it to private corporation, then

BY command of Major General Scho-
field the name of the post established on
the right bank of Medicine Bluffs creek,
Indian Territory, heretofore known as
Camp Washita, is changed to Fort Sill,
in commemoration of the name and
services of General Joshua W. Sill,

murder, of two young citizens named

by Brule and Sioux Indians, who es-

would certainly have been heard from
ere this by telegraph, by letter or i'll
person by Mrs. Powell, with whom her
husband was on two previous expe-
ditions, or by his own relations: His
brother, editor of the Denver News,
being withouA communication from
him, telegraphed to the operator at
Brldger for information, and received
this reply, which he published in the
News of the 9th inst:
mo man came to Bridger from the
Powell expedition. The report origin
ated from the drowning of Mr.. HOOK III

10 this country and they wanted TO tell
SO they got up the story.
The first we heard of it was from Gran
gers. The report was that all the par
ty was drowned but one and that he
came in here. At least there is not a
man at the post that has seen or heard
of any of Powelrs party since they left
