THE PLAY.-Lsst night Miss keene and
her company did not less realize all that
they expected concerning large and appre
ciative audience, than did the latter partake
of all they anticipated, In Hunted Down"
one of the greatest emotional dramas placed
upon the stage.
In the several characters we behold q
diversity of human passions, some one of
which, to a greater or less extent, predomi.
mates in every individual.
Mr.. Otis, as Sir Arthur, finely acted the
par. of a Facilitating, inquisitive coxcomb,
who can be made CATS paw by any one
whose plot is not too profound for his com
prehension.
Mrs. Cantor played to perfection the
character of Mrs. Jones, who ia one of those
suspicious persons, jealous of their rank, who
has the cheek to indulge in the grossest
obtrusions, the meanness to pry into the
affairs of their neighbors, and an indomits.
Bile will to triumph over their victim.
Mr.. Mordaunt, in the character of John
Leigh, and Miss Keene, in that of the
artists wife, were highly finished imper
sonations, and merited the appreciation they
received.
in fine, they exhibited their striking dra'
matte power to the best advantages under
the circumstances, giving to the emotional
part of the entertainment q charm that was
highly appreciated by g discriminating
audience.
Tonight will be played most
laughable comedy, ''Our American Cousin"
This is Miss Keene's last evening in this
city. Seats secured at Champion & Co.'s

The design Of it's publisher has always been to
make it a lire paper, free from dictation or control
from any quarter and in this he has had every
evidence of hearty support, in a steadily-increas-
ing subscription list, which is also an evidence
of the commercial growth and prosperity of the
islands. With steamers and telegraphs, there
will soon be a demand for more frequent publica-
ton and whenever it is called for we shall
pIblIsh scmiweekly or daily. Those who wish
to subscribe, will find this the best time to do so.

There seems to be very little doubt that Mr.
Cyrus W. Fields proposed telegraph cable viii
receive the hearty support of Congress and the
American people. Reports from Washington
state that President Grant, General Sherman. and
others high in authority warmly favor the project;
also, that the committee of Congress, having the
matter in charge, are unanimously in favor OF a
subsidy of $500, 900 per annum for twenty years,
in place of a subsidy in public lands. Mr.. Field
appeared before the committee for the purpose of
giving information as to the practicability OF lay
ing telegraph cables under the Pacific Ocean and
the best route for them. There have been two
routes proposed. The first was that of Mr.. Perry
Med. Collins, by the way of Alaska and the
Aleutien Islands, who has had a bill before Con-
gress for nearly two years. The other is a new
one proposed by Mr.. Cyrus W. Field. by the way
of the Sandwich Islands. Both these routes are
said to be regarded as practicable by Mr.. Field,
each having its advantages and Disadvantages.
He claims that the sandwich Islands route has a
commercial importance the other has not. His
arguments were very forclble, and he demonstrated
beyond a doubt the practicability of the enter
prise, if Government would aid in opening it. We
hope to hear by first mail of the passage of the
bill. Telegraphic communication between Amer
lea and China and Japan will complete the cir
cult of the globe, and we shall then realize Shake
speare's poetic and prophetic idea of putting a
girdle around the earth in forty minutes.

can Minister will receive the congratulations of
the officers of His Majesty's Government, the
diplomatic corps, bis eountrymen and others, at
the Legation in Hotel street.

visits of Americans and others (ladies as well as
gentlemen) who may honor them and the day
with their presence.
At 3 o'clock, p. NJ, there will be a CHILDREN S
PICNIC in the grove at Mrs. Paty's residence
in Nuuanu valley. This is intended to be a
chiIdren's gathering, where they can assemble
and enjoy their nuts, cookies and 6re-crackers
under the folds and stripes of the star-spangled
with the best music that Honolulu can
furnish. We are authorized to invite the fami-
lies of Americans. and of all those (of all nation

Mr.. Savarv issues Circular announc-
ing a Convention of Teachers and
School Committees at Hancock Hall, on
Friday and Saturday of next week.
This will be an important and valuable
meeting no doubt. for the subjects to be
discussed, are those which deeply in
terest all the people. There is no aris-
tocracy to be found in our Common
School System, and therefore it should
enlist the warmest svmpathies and the
most active and energetic efforts OF all
the well wishers of humanity. Spare,
then one day, yes two DAYS OF next
week. to the promotion OF the educa-
,ional interests of the children. Let the
teachers have the two DAYS, named 10
discuss, and to hear discussed all these
questions which relate to the improve
ment of our Common Schools. omat-
ter if the teachers have commenced
their schools, they will 90 back 10 their
pleasant duties after the Convention.
Win some new anu bc'''i iu''' -
teaching, with fre,hcr zeal. and with a
more exalted opinion OF the dignity and
responsibility of their calling.
By the Circular il will be seen that
some of the best educators in the state
will be present: and among those who
may be expected. but not yet announc-
ed. is Governor Chamberlain. There
fore, il will be seen at once that no such
Convention has ever before been held
in the Countv-no Convention OF 50
much real value 10 the people.
Let the Teachers come. and the >choo
Committees. and the Ministers. and
-. the LAWYERS, and all the &C. i've friend
OF popular education. that all the adj
vantages of the convention may be scat
tered broadcast over the County.
We took our pen for the purpose only
of urging a full attendance, believing
that all who do come to this educaiion
al feast will be well rewarded for thu
time and expense.
