New MARKET REPoRT.-The New York Journal
Of Couineree is grave and digDded paper, but Its
commercial column lately gave this:
There has been a good demand for sharpness and
acuteness We notice also some call for roguery
and rascality. Selhshness is steady. Prudence
the stock is small hut the demand lnconsiderable.
Population and embezZlement looking up. Gross
Aatery active, with rising tendency Adroit lying
at premium. Not much demand for truth, except
in small quantities holders firm. Candor unchanged
Uprightness has downward tendecy. Zeal for the
right dull and quiet. Modesty has declined. Light
demand for Justice; not much offered. Cunning
more active than usual A good business done in
pocket picking; would be better but for the police
Something done in suicide. House-breaking rather
active just now. Popularity-mauy and lively bids
at first and second call. Love of goodness aud Of
good men rather quiet. Charity of the first quality
little offered lower grades are in good demand,
pecially If they promise quick returns. Sincerity
rather scarce aud demand moderate. Hypocrisy
some stir; we may say active. a little doing In
stabbing and rape. Drunkenness-much offered and
good deal taken. Recklessness in demand. Foolish
ness-much in the market, and considerable quanti-
ties taken at high prices. Something doing in over
trading Promises not intended to be kept, plenty.
Honesty firm but at low prices. Usury rather fiat.
Extortion fiat also Covetousuess, more fatal than
cholera increasing

police force, attempted suicide BY cutting his
throat, but was prevented by neighbor, who
appeared to be aware of his intention There are
so many contradictory reports, that it is impossible
to obtain any correct particulars.

IMPORTED BrRDs.-Capt. Fuller of the bark Com

himself in procuring and caring for, during the
passage hither, such foreign birds a valuable
introduction here, brought couple of Orioles ian
insectiverous bird OF very handsome plumage,) on
his last trip from San Francisco which landed
ed in excellent condition. They are at present in
charge of Mr. Messenger, who voluntarily assumes
the guardianship OF all such strangers until they
have sufficiently recovered from their journey. The
new arrivals will be allowed to fnd suitable resi-
dence for themselves in a few days, and will prove
valuable addition TO the variety Of imported birds
which are rapidly increasing 10 our mountains and
valleys Several Of residents are kindly assist

extent for the future wants of the featheIed immi
grants, by planting patches Of sorghum, broom corn
and other suitable food for them on their premises
thereby contributing to public benefit and pleas

be sufficiently rewarded by the early music of the

BASE RECOMMENDATIONS sympathy for the
sbpwrecked seamen Of the Arctic fleet was strongly
aroused immediately upon their arrival at this port,
and great interest was at once manifested in their
behalf by those to whom these destitute men
could look for aid. The manner in which they
were received and cared for by the Q. S. Consul,
might reasonably have been expected 10 awaken in
them some sense of gratitude, and many doubtless
felt grateful; but among the large number who
were thus suddenly thrown upon the protection of
a liberal Government, were some who basely abused
the kindness they received by selling the clothes
which had been furnished them. few of the
degenerate ones have even disgraced themselves by
stealing the effects of their comrades and selling
them, for the purpose, it appears of gratifying
their love of dissipation. Many of the wrecked
men are of course hcuest and respectable, and to
these it must be subject of much regret that
those in whose society they unfortunately thrown
have so disgrsced themselves. Few crimes are
more despicable than abusing the kindness of
benefactor or robblng comrade. 1t is to be hoped
that these men will, by their future good conduct
prove their appreciation of the timely aid afforded
them, and show their gratitude for the care they
are receiving

LAST Sunday evening, ne J. H. Patty Esq, bis WIFE

It always appears 10 US that the least person
do, under such circumstance, is TO manifest suf-
cIent interest in their fellow creatures TO find out
whether they have been injured by their means.
But some men are so cowardly that they are afraid
to face the difficulties that they, Themselves have
been the cause Of, because they would thereby be-
come known, and as they think, would be made
answerable for the damages caused by their care
lessness. Mr. Patty, having proper view of such
conduct has placed the matter in the hands Of the
police for investigation. Fortunately, no especial
damage was done In this case, so that the driver Of
the other carriage might have saved his reputation
for humanity and galantry, aud not lost his money
either. We apprehend that if the Police Magistrate
gets hold of him, 1t will not be an economical ar

The Loss OF THE KATE LEE.-We regret to chron-
ice the loss of the schooner Kate Lee, which vessel
went ashore the End inst, near the onomes land
ing Hio, Hawaii. The vessel had discharged that
portion of her cargo which was 10 be landed at
Hlo, Kaiwiki, Psukaa, and Onomea, and had
taken her anchor at the latter landing with the
intention of proceeding to Kaupakues, for which
place she bad large amount of freight consisting
of frame and lumber for a sugar-house, two clari
ers, and train OF kettles, all amounting in value
to about 5000.
Soon after leaving the anchorage the light sea
breeze died away leaving the vessel becalmed near
Kalaoa Point, heavy swell setting iu to the shore at
the time The boats Immediately sent ahead,
and attempted TO tow the vessel off, bat without
avail The vessel was too near the rocks to anchor,
and the only hope OF escape 10 keep sail her

by Messrs. Foster & Co., aud was, We understand,

are assured that Messrs. Foster s. Co. will soon
place another rstclAss schooner on the HilO route

TO be the closing performance of the season. The

they certainly left most pleasing impression on
the large audience, which has, through the whole
season. been in constant attendance OF every operatc
performance The Barber was presented In SPLEEN

sentation. Every member of the Troupe were fully
mp in their respective parts and perceptible hitch
or impeachment occurred during the evening. To
crticse ST. Suisiui as DR.. Bartolo, or ST. Orandiui
the Barber, in fact any OF the Troupe in their
respective parts, is beyond our ability.
We are happy to announce that Sr. Giorza, the
accomplished Pianist and Musical Director of the
operate Troupe. will take benefit on Friday
evening of this week, at the Court house, when a
concert will be given. Sr. Giorza's great acquire
ments as a musician and composer, as well as his
other admirable qualities, which have made him
favorite in the community, sufficient to guaranty
TO him full house To make the concert more at

teered to assist on the occasion. All may expect

will do so with much lighter hearts ifthey able
to convey some definite Information of favorable

WE notice in the Advertiser of Saturday last let
ter from Lanai 10 which the writer tells of the re-
mains Of person named Palau, having been found
after that person had been missing for about eighteen
months,-that coroner's jury had been called to
investigate the case, and that grave doubts en-
tertained whether not Palau TO his death by
foul means. The same letter speaks of a large num-
Der of sheep having been, sometime since, stolen
from Mr.. Gibson, who was until recently Deputy
Sheriff Of Lanai, and intimates that certain PARTIES
supposed TO be guilty of the theft knowing that Pa
lau cognsant of their guilt and being an honest
and STEADY church goer," threatened to ex-
pose their crime. Even his (Palau's) wife was con-
cerned in the affair ofthe sheep stealing from Mr.
Gibson as the writer of the letter intimates Itcer
tany looks improbable to US that any great number
of sheep could have been stolen from the flock Of
Mr.. Gibson on Lanai over eighteen months ago, and
that gentleman, besides being Deputy Sheriff also
vigilant in protecting his own property, know no.
thing about it. We therefore do not credit this part
of the story of the AdUertiSe's correspondent. AS
regards Palau, we have from reliable sources the
assurance that he was a half insane man. who has
been missed for the past eighteen months. 1t was
supposed that he had either met with some accident,
such as falling off precipice, for instance, or in
moment of unusual frenzy had killed himself.

We call attention to the Card published in an
other column, from the Committee of the Chamber
of Commerce calling for contributions for the relief
of the sufferers by the late disastrous fires in the
Western States of the American Union. We under

circulated, generous responses have been made, so
much So indeed that it is certain that the reputa
