Iron MOSUMENrs.-We noticed a day or two since
in the foundry, two very fine specimens of iron cast
ings. One is a plain broad tablet, surmounted with
a cross and inscribed with the name, age and BIRTH
place Of the unfortunate young officer of the DonGu
who came to such q sad end in the harbOr last month.
The other is a plain shaft, also Of cast iron, about
fifteen feet high, and on the base is inscribed the
names of the seamen of the Dondu who have died
during the stay of the ship in our port. These mon
uments, are to be placed over the graves in the
Catholic cemetery at Kulaokahua. The officers and
crew Of the DOnau, it may be supposed, will always
remember their stay at Honolulu with q melancholy
interest, as being the last resting place OF so many
of their countrymen who left Trieste on the long yoy-
age round the world. We learn that the ship will
shortly sail for Guatemala and either there or at
Callao be rejoined by the Admiral (unless he has in
the meantime returned by the Isthmus) for the home
voyage. During her somewhat prOtracted stay, her
officers have made many friends among our residents,
and her crew have been without doubt the most or
derby and quiet set of man-of-War's men ever in this
port. There has been no noise or drunkenness when
on liberty, but good humor and good music have
been their characteristics. Farewell, and bon poyage
to the D0ndu.

How To Avoid Hard Times.

To the Editor of the Pacific Commercial Advertiser:
The result anticipated long ago by those who duly
reflected on the subject, has at length forced itself
upon the attention of planters. When a fair, pay
ing contract was offered. nay, urged upon the whole
planting interest of the islands, it could not be
effected, because a few of the planters stood out
against it and TO be ~effectual, it required the con-
currence of all ; and the result was, for a time, not
very adverse to the interests of the planters. The
price of sugar in the California market was such, as
TO return u fair margin on shipments. But the re-
suit was only a question Of time and that time has
come. Sugar, now, does not pay a profit, and prob
ably some can testify that it nets them a loss.
The cause of this is very simple. AS soon as the
refneries found that they could not get their supplies
from the islands, they were forced to look elsewhere
for them and there was no difficulty in finding
them. and that. too, from countries where labor and
other expenses are. much cheaper than at these ISL
ands. And the result is that the San Francisco market
is fully supplied with the cheap grades of sugar. for
refinery use, and ours, for all grades, are being
driven from their only market, or forced to sale at a
loss. Without going into 4 long argument on the
subject, it seems to me,-who am in no direct way
remedy must be found, or our sugar interests at the
islands will be involved ~iRspeedy ruin.
A short road to a remedy would appear to be an
absolute necessity and this can be found in imme-
date measures to secure again the contracts for two
thirds of all the crops of the islands, which is worth
the effort. to avert universal bankruptcy of the
planters.
Just so long as this is postponed, the depression
will continue, and be growing worse aua worse.
Other countries will supply the raw material, and
ours will go a begging. This is as plain as
ABB. c.

Further Particulars of the Dsath of

LONDON, June 1.-THE following
latter and more accurate particulars OF
the sudden attack which terminated
in the death of Mr.. Dickens, have
been obtained by your correspondent.
Mr.. Dickens was talking to Miss Ho-
garth, his niece, at the table, when he
started suddenly, and remarked that
ne telt a twinge or pain as if from
tOOthache. Miss HOgarth took him
by the arm and led him from the
room, thinking the air might revive
him. He had taken but two or three
steps forward when he suddenly stag
gered and fell heavily upon his right
side, becoming Immediately uncOn-
seiOus, in which condition he was
borne to his couch. and a physician
summoned. He remained speechless
and insensible until his death, which
occurred within tWenty-fOur hours af-
ter the attack. The physician who
examined Mr.. Dickens reported that
the pupil Of the right y was much
dilated, while that of the left eve
was cOrrespOndingly contracted. His
breathing was ~stertOrOus and his limbs
remained faecid until about half an
hour before death, when a slight ner-
vOus cOnvulsiOn occurred. Thesymp-

THERE is evidence of returning
sense and sanity in the remarks of the
Mississippi Senator Bennett on a reso-
luton to adjourn over for the pur-
pose Of the commemOration services.
He is a Republican, and said it was
his opinion that, " while they hon
ored the dead who fell in the cause of
the Union, they should drop tears of
regret and sympathy upon the graves
Of the fallen heroes of the Confed-
eracy, who were honestly and de-
votedly attached to their cause, and
who attested that devotion by sacri-
icing their lives in its behalf. Above
all, he urged that whatever was done
in this way by the people of the North
or Of the South, should be done vol
UNFAIRLY and of the free will of each
or both, and he added that he hoped
TO see the time when the dead of both
armies shall be gathered together and
laid side by side in one vast National
Cemetery, where the friends of both
may annually meet on a true National
Memorial Day, shake hands over the
graves Of the fallen heroes of both
armies, and let past animosities and
hatred for each other be forever
buried in the graves which they dec
