BIZ the steamer Kilauea and other late arrivals
from the windward, we learn that during last week,
quite strong southeriy wind prevailed on Maui and
hawaii, which amounted to, almost, a kOHd. The
steamer on her down trip from Hawaii was unable
to land her boats at Lahaina therefore neees
sary to proceed from that place to Honolulu without
the mails.
The Kflauea returned on Friday last, day
aheSd Of her usual time, having been prevented
bv the weather from calling at LAhAina on the
return trip. She leff for Hilo on Monday, in con.
seoueuce of the Inconvenience caused by the loss
OF the Kate Lee, and wiz make the trip around
Hawaii, returning on Sunday.

The Museum of the AgTiCu IGu-
raj Department at wash
inRtOn.

On the second floor of the building,
the main hall, one hundred and two feet
in length by ffty-tw in width, and
twenty seven feet high, is occupied by
the museum. 1t is not possible within
the limits of this paper to give any ade
quate idea Of the design and objects Of
this museum 1t is entirely novel and
unique, there being nothing like it in the
world. 1t is intended not only as an
exhibition of agricultural productions,
aud the manufactures therefrom, but to
show also how these products are effect
ed by different climates aud processes of
cultivation, and what insects, birds and
animals are especially injurious or bene-
fetal to them. Specimens of all the
native birds are stuffed and mounted upon
perches painted white. If the bird is
useful to the farmer, the perch is left en-
tirely white-if injurious, there is a
black mark on the end OF the perch. The
contents of the stomach are also preserv-
ed in small boxes, so as to show what
particular insects are destroyed by GER
tain species of insectivorous birds
The chronological collection compri
ses all the North American insects
known to agricultural entomologists, to
gether with a great variety of foreign
aud tropical insects The American in
sects are also represented in copper.plate
engravings in the various stages of their
transformations, with references to note
books giving the names and habits of
the insects, substances upon which they
feed, their manner of destroying fruits
aud vegetables, aud directions for de-
stroying them or guarding against them.
The department. is in daily receipt OF
letters from all parts of the country,
calling for information of this kind

BUNKER HILL is ODE cut down-not
the monument, but the Hill on which it
is situated, leaving the monument stand
ing on pedestal of earth. AS the hill
is to be cut down forty FIVE feet. it will
make the monument relatively that much
higher The earth which will come from
the hill is to be used in filing up marshy
fats near by. and in Tits way about $50
acres of additional building lots and
streets will be secured The project
viii require the lowering of nearly 500
houses and one church, with the removal
of cemetery containing 5000 corpses
The estimated cost of the improvement
is between three or four millions. This
looks like desecrating the spot on which
Warren fell, and where, according to
John Hickman, he said it was pleasant
and decorous" to die for ones country.

I The Rhode Island Democrats, at their

1.-THE twelfal E Of the nation now as at any
tItime in our history, and as applicable TO-

confidence that they will again be,

once, more. a., they have been in times
past, their guide and the support Of
their national and political progress.
ResoEued, That we hail with admira-
ton theresult of the efforts of our breth-
rem in New Hampshire, and 'congratn-
late them on the glorious victory they
have won: by an earnest and persistent
devotion to the theory and practice of
Democratic doctrines.
..RssolSea, That Congress, by. its con-
temptuous, disregard for the interests of
the people; by its unjust and unequal
taxation its special legislation: its uni
form encouragement OF huge and swim
ding monopolies; its robbing the peo-
pie Of the public lands and giving it to
grasping speculatorsi its unjust bur
dening Of trade by enormous and pro-
hibitory duties; its unconcern for the
poor man, and its heaping of individual
undeserved advantages upon the rich,
has forfeited the respect Of the country,
and failed in its duty to the citizens.
Resolusd, Thatthe usurpation of Con-
gress in placing the ballot-box at the
mercy of the bayonet is in keeping with
its indifference to the rights of the peo-
pie, and evidence Of the unworthiness
Of its spirit and disloyalty to republican
institutions.
Resohea, That every citizen, naturali-
zed or native-born, is entitled to equal
political rights with every other citizen,
and that the constitution of the State
oughtto beso amended as that the unjust
discrimination now made between natu-
rallied and native-born citizens should
be abolished.
Rsso1ea That, planting ourselves, as
heretofore, on the Constitution of the
United States as the bulwark of our
Liberties, we will never cease our labors
until it is once more made in fact, as in
law, the supreme law of the land.

How TO Do Ir-A New MODE OF
REcoNsTRUcTIoN.-A bellicose blue
nose resident of New York has been
lately struck with anew idea, which he
communicates to the Tribune in the fol-
lowing letter:
A PLAN TO MEET THE KU-KLUX.
To tile Editor of the Tribune
SIZE The Ku-Klux can be suppress
ed only as Kansas was preserved from
slavery and border rufhanism. Let
enough of our men, carrying rifles with
them, if necessary, go South and settle
in colonies. Innumerable, unwilling
members of the 5Ku-Klux will point
out and expose the rascals Individually.
n. R. F.
New York, March Is, 1871.
This bloodthirsty II. R. F. can rely
upon it. He and his friends will re-
ceiYe cordial welcome, provided they
bring their rifles or anything else with
them; and do not resortsto rlHlng Cne
public treasury.
Unfortunately, his predecessors in
emigration, rarely brought anything
but their boots and carpet bags They
came as the hawk to the chicken roost,
only to ravage and carry away. Besides
this, II. R. Fs friends may find their
rifles useful, Judging by the fate Of the
Republicans massacred at Donaldson
Vile, (La., and the Republican Judge
recently shot down upon his bench at
Meridian, Miss, by insurgent negroes.
H. R. F. could not have. hit upon a
better idea, and we trust, in all sinceri-
ty, it may be carried out.-Charleston
Courier.
