10 call attention to the card Of VI. LIE Monnyer, the
French Commissioner, in another part of to-day's

lished an article calling attention TO the feasibility Of
carrying on here the business of canning fresh meats
for export, after the manner pursued in Australia
and New Zealand with such success. We are now

totally wrecked. She would be sold at auction.

CORK HARBoR-We have received a COPY OF the
Examiner, a paper published at Cork. ireland, con-
tanning an exceedingly interesting account (but too
long for our cClumns) of very extensive dock
building and other accommodations for shipping
and merchandise that have recently been built at
that noted port. Particular attention is directed to
the fact that vessels calling there for orders and in
need of repairs, will hereafter find the best of fac
ilities without u~nlading. Cork is fast becoming a
huge commercial emporium.
THE SCRIBBLERs.-The islands have been much
written about Of late, more particularly in the San
Francisco papers. The Alias Honolulu cores
]Pondence is quite lengthy and generally reliable.
and so are lis editorial articles concerning island
affairs. The Chronicle has an editorial on Reel
procity. which reads well and has but here and
there an inaccuracy in statement, but severely OPP
poses the project, and rather unjustly lashes us
about our labor system. y native OF Honolulu
now residing in san Francisco is said to be the
writer. -

SAILING or TIE BENICIA-The L. 5. s. Benicia,
Capt. Clary. which arrived here on the Sd OF Jan
uary last. sailed for San Francisco on Wednesday
the 10th, after a stay in our waters OF about seventy
five days. The ship came when We were in the
midst OF political uncertainties and excitements.
and she leaves Us when all is quiet and order. Her
officers will long be remembered as refined gentle
men, and they too will doubtless have pleasant
memories connected with their visit to our Islands.
During her stay here. His Majesty the King made
the trip TO Hilo and back on the Beaicia. and in
token Of his appreciation of the gallant officers of
the noble ship, in company with his suite he paid a
farewell visit on board on Wednesday. Generals
