~struction was completed by burning the houses
and chapels, after which the mob dispersed.
Great excitement prevailed at Shanghae on the
receipt of the news of this fearful massacre, and
French and English war vessels had been dis
patched to Tientsin for the protection of the
foreigners left in the foreign settlement. The
NeuOs Letter is very bitter against Mr.. Meadows,
the American Consul, who it says was the only
one who seemed to view the whole affair with
unconeern. 1t asserts, moreover, that he was a
paid employe of the Mandarin, and concludes its
notice of him in these words For how long,
o America will you keep foreigners and aliens
in your posts of honor and trust?"
The Chinese Government had issued an impe-
rial proclamation, declaring that a strict inquiry
shall be instituted into the circumstances of this
sad affair, and that the Governor and other local
Mandarins shall be chastised severely for |" their
utter want of skill in the fulfllment of their
several duties" 1t remains to be seen what
action the French and Russian Governments will
take to exact satisfaction for the murder of their
subjects, and for security in the future.

General Trochu.

The man to whom France now looks for that
genius which is to lead her to peace is Trochu,
the General who is in comma8d as military
Governor of Paris, under the Republic. Marshal
Bazaine; one of the best judges of men, says that
'' Trochu has the triple talent of writing, talking
and fighting" He has long been known to
eminent military critics as the strongest intellect
in the French army, and intellect is what is
needed now 60 guide the French out of their de-
plorable difficulty. Through a series of the most
stupid blunders, the armies of France have been
defeated, separated and cut off from their main
source of supplies, while the Prussians are march
ing on Paris itself. Unless Trochu can save what
remains and turn the tide. which is now surging
over France, carrying dismay everywhere, no
other man can do it. He is to France now what
Grant was in 1864,-the nations hope. In APP
pearance, Trochu is described as being of middle
size, elegant in figure, but with nerves and sinews
of iron strength. His face is full Of intelligence
and pleasing, his forehead broad and eyes small
but brilliant and sparkling. He is evidently
- the coming man of France"

Mr.. Adamson.s Rennm-

A late mail brought advices that Preside.
Grant had nominated a Mr.. Lowry of PepnsvI
vanla, as United States Consul at this port. We
believe we express the opinion of a very LARGO
majority OF our citizens, when we saw that tho
news of the appointment of Mr.. Adamson's suc.
cessor caused profound regret. In the wear tba,
Mr.. Adamson has held the position of Consul. he
has won the respect and esteem of our best OH
liens, because of the conviction, often publiclv
expressed, that he had honestly, conscientiousIv
and f~earlessly performed the duties of his Office
Because be meted out full justice to the seamen
of the American whaling feet, he has been bit
terly opposed by the masters and owners of the
feet. Under their blows, not fairly dealt, he
has had to succumb. The New Bedford delega-
ton SO manipulated the Committee ON Com.
merce" of the United States Senate, that Mr..
Adamson's appointment was not presented 10
the Senate for confirmation before adjournment,
Tor this cause, and this only, he must leave this
post.
MIR. Adamson's issue with the whaling mag
mates OF New Bedford, has some features in com.
mon with our issue with the Sugar Planters.
1t is the oft repeated struggle between labor and
capital, and Mr.. Adamson has manfully battled
Tor the rights of the laborer against the abuses
which seem to be inherent with power as rerre.
sented by capital. We should much prefer f.
be in Mr.. Adamson's position rather than that Of
the parties who have so unfairly and persistentlv
sought his removal. The best wishes Of this
community 60 with Mr.. Adamson.

LOcAL ~cOMMERcIAL.

We have 70 report the arrival this week Of the California
mail steamer Moses Taylor, with freight, mails and PAS
SINGERS from san Francisco She Is 4 vessel Of 1850 tons,
AMI was formerly employed in the Nicaragua service. While
the North Pacific Transportation Co. are constantly improv-
ing the service between tMs port and san Francisco, by
putting on switer and more comfortable vessels, we have as
yet no intimation Of a corresponding Improvement in the
steamers between this port and sydney, although the Ha-
uaian Government Is understood a. being pledged
pay Il the subsidy authorized by law, which is
$4,000 a year. The boats on the latter route are small and
uncomfortable, and wholly unsuited for the service. From
San Francisco we learn that two Of the Webb steamers
having been lifted for service, lay in the harbor opposite San
Fnncisco, awaiting orders 20 commence running.
Besides the above, we note the arrival Of the ship Electra
from san Francisco, under charter to load guano. and the
brig KalHshrmcha =, from the Guano Islands. A report
nom Captain Johnson will b. found below. From il, IL will
Be seen thar $500 tons Of guano were put on board during the
space of nine weeks. The success which has attended the
loading Of guano ships this year speaks well in favor Of the
present management
The only foreign departure during the week has been the
schooner A. p. JOEydaH, with cargo Of produce for San
Francisco, despatched by Messrs. Walker a Allen.
Business the last month has been dull, though fall supplies
Of goods are rapidly arriving, and We anticipate a fair trade.
The paying-oh rate Of oil and bone will doubtless be fixed low
enough 10 satisfy every ship owner.
A vessel arrived at San Francisco from the Ochotsk, a few
days before the trainer Ief, reporting the Monticello, June
Z, with go bbls oil. aud the brig AIer. Second OF 3 F. with
100 bbls.
The British ship William Ie Laeheur sailed from London
September I, for Honolulu, consigned to J. 7. Warehouse &
Sons. She is a first class clipper Of about one thousand tons

We would call the attention OF our business men and plant

that city. They are now prepared to supply plantations with

SATURDAY. SEPTEMBER "a.
Death of Her Majesty the Dow
aRer Queen EaIama.

Death of Her Majesty the Dow
aRer Queen
Her Majesty Queen Kalama, the widow of
Kamehameha the Good, expired at her residence
in this city on Tuesday last, the 10Th instant,
after a very long and painful illness. The de-
ceased Queen Dowager was ffty-three years of
age at the time of her death, having been born
in 1917, at a small village near Kailua, in Kona,
Hawaii. Married to Kamehameha III. in 1887,
by the Rev. Hiram Bingham, she was, during
the lifetime of the King, highly respected and
beloved by all. She possessed a native dignity
and refinement of manner, combined with a
courteousness of demeanor that impressed all
who approached her that she was a true lady.
Like her royal husband, she was, to the day of
her death, emphatically and constantly a friend TO
the foreigner, as well as a kind and liberal pat
roness of her own people, and dies sincerely
mourned by all.

Aheong.the Converted Chlnaman

AheonG. the Converted Chinanlan
The Chinese, as is well known, are remarkably
tenacious of the ancient customs and beliefs of
their own country. 1t is indeed extremely rare
to find one who becomes a real and sincere con-
vert to the Christian religion, but whenever such
a case does occur, tue converted Chinaman is gen.
orally found to be faithful and jealous. An in
stance in point is found in the history of Aheong.
He belonged to the literati. OF educated classes
of China, and his father who was a professional
teacher, having been implicated with the Tae-Ping
rebellion, the family was broken up, and Aheong
wandered off to a seaport. Here he met an agent
who was shipping coolies for the Hawaiian
Islands. Induced by the Aattering accounts given
of the Islands, and of the fabulously high wages
to be paid, together with the assurance that the
Hawaiian year was much shorter than that of
China, and that he should be made on his arrival
here a secretary and agent for the other laborers
he signed the contract and came to the islands.
The falsity of the representations of the agent
soon became apparent to him, when he was sent
to labor on a plantation and treated on the same
footing with the coolies. Finding himself thus
deceived and sold, " this educated Chinaman as
might be naturally the case with an educated
European or American, became detected and sad.
This, together with his intelligent face and cor
rect demeanor, so won upon his master that,
drawing from him the story of his life and the
deception which brought him to the islands, he
was relieved from field labor, and put in charge
of the plantation store. In this he showed him
self so competent and faithful, and SO won upon
the good feelings of his master that he was re-
leased altogether from the remaining term of his
bonded service, and shortly after set up a store on
his own account, prospered, married a native wife,
and eventually made a public profession of Chris
tian faith. From that time forth he became
as - the converted Chinaman, - and la
bored assiduously among his countrymen. as a
teacher and preacher, in which latter capacity he
commissioned by the Hawaiian Evangelical
Board in June, 1869. Speaking several of the
dialects of China, he also was able to
preach quite fuently in the Hawaiian, besides
a very fair knowledge of English.
The foregoing statement of facts is mostly
cleaned from a letter by the Rev. Titus Coan, of
Hilo, which we find printed in a recent number
of a religious journal,-The (Chicago) AdUance.
We may add that Mr.. Aheong and his family
left here for China last spring, with his Hawaiian
wife and children, with the intention, however,
of soon returning to this, once the land of his
exile, now the land of his adoption. He came
here first, to all intents and purposes a slave,-his
second advent will be in the character of a free
immigrant. The representations which he win
undoubtedly take the opportunity to make to his
