Unfortunate, if not Intentional.
the table given below :

In the Gazette Extra of the 9th inst, giving an
account of the proceedings on the day whea His
Majesty publicly took the oath of Office in Kswaia-
hao Church, all mention was omitted of the fact that
the Rev. Ii. IL. Parker, pastor of the church, opened
the proceedings with prayer. On attention being d-
rected to the omission, it was corrected in the regular
issue of the 18th. Again, in the number of the
Gazette for the 22d, in relating the proceedings at
the Propagation of the Legislature, the statement is
made that prayer was offered by the Rev. d. Pail.
When the well-knOwn fact is remembered that the
Rev. II. III. Parker (not Mr.. Pali) was the officiating
clergyman in this instance also. the numerous friends
Of Mr.. Parker would seem TO have some real excuse
for the belief to which they now incline, that the first
omission and the after misstatement were both inten-
tional. The following communication speaks for
itself
Who IS RESPONSIBLE Afr. Edior-We are in
q transition state. Statements and omissions which
cause surprise appear in the paper Of this city which
speaks by authority, and to which q Jew look for
reliable information AS outsiders we would be very
sorry to place responsibility where it does not belong.
In the last issue of the Hawaiian Gazette the
reporter of that reliable Journal in giving an account
of the proceedings at the Court House when His
Majesty prorogued the Legislative Assembly, says
"After prayer by Rev. d. Pail, His Majesty adj
dressed the Assembly, Was that soH Did not
another person o~ficiate at the request of His Majesty
ON that occasion? IF so, why was the name Of the
reverend gentleman who ofaciated on the occasion
and also at the Kawaiahao Church on the 9th inst.
when His Majesty took the oath Of Office, suppressed
AS the omission has been repeated after the attention
of the responsible man of the Gazette had been
called to the former error, some are constrained to
think il must have been intentional in both cases. If
so, permit me to ask why that paper should by
design or otherwise suppress the name of one who is
held in high esteem not only by the Aborigines Of
the nation, but also by our foreign community and
His Majesty himself, the beloved pastor of the
largest Evangelical Church in this city, the REV. II.
H.. PARKER. Is there a reason for this suppression ?
This must be the inference until we have more light
on the subject. F.

permission was given for the use Of all the fore

last winter passed a bin for the Incorporation OF

FESTIVITIES on THE 3lsT-We hear that the Fire

HIGHWAY RoBBERY-we have to record another
instance of the brutality and lawlessness Of our
native military. Last Monday evening, about 10
O'Clock, as Mr.. Gustave Inser, 8 respectable German
who works in the machine shop Of Mr.. J. Neil,
was quietly vending his way homeward up Nuuanu
Avenue, when near the first bridge he was violently
assaulted by four native soldiers, who after beating
until he was insensible, robbed his person of
what money he had-S14.l0-and then left him, for
dead, so far as they knew, or cared. After recover
his senses, Mr.. Inser went 10 the Barracks with
another person, and although he could not identify
the parties who had assaulted him, one soldier was
found with bloody stains on his clothing, and placed
under arrest on suspicion. Subsequently, as we are
this man implicated several others as parties
to the outrage, and they are to be tried by a Court
Whatever may he the result Of such a
Court, it cannot prove satisfactory to the public
opinion, which imperatively demands that the undis-
lawless set who disgrace the name of soldiers,
shall be taught by severe example that they are

The Hawaiian Coat-ofArms.

AS a matter of interest, we clip the following
description of the Hawaiian Coat-oEA Arms, from
an old number of the POlyneSidn
Quarterly, first and fourth stripes of the ma
tional banner, second or third or ball argent on
a staff sable. In escutcheon cert, triangular ban
ner argent, leaning on a cross sdltier.
1.-The white balls with which the second and
third quarter are charged, was an ancient en-
blem of the country, called Pulouiou, and they
were placed on the right and left Of the Kings
house to indicate protection, or a place of refuge
to which a person might flee from danger and be
safe.
L triangular flag at the fesse-point was an
ancient flag of Hawaiian chiefs. which was
raised at sea above the sail of their canoes, and
the sail at that time being of a peculiar c~onstruc-
ton, it presented a very beautiful appearance.
1t was also placed in a leaning position across
two spears in front of the Kings house to indi-
cate both tabu and protection. The name of the
flag was Pueloa, and that of the cross on which
it lies Aha. Both the balls and the flag had on
some occasions a religious Specification, but their
appropriateness to a coat-of-arms results from
the above characteristics.
1.-The external ornaments of the escutcheon con-
sists of a crest, which is a crown and two sup
porters-men clad i'm the ancient feather cloak
and helmet Of these Islands, the one bearing a
kahih and the other a spear, as in the professions
Of former times. The crown is with
the taro leaf. The design was original by Haa-
lilo, who went with Mr.. Richards to negotiate
the treaty between the United States and these
Islands.
The motto is Ia mau Ike ca o ka alma i ka
pOnO,-'T The life of the land is perpetuated in
righteousness 1t refers to the speech Of the
King at the time of the cession, Feb. 18th, 1843.
{ have hopes that the life of the land will be
restored when my conduct is justified 1t very
naturally alludes to the righteousness of the
British Government in returning the Islands to
their legal Sovereign, to the righteousness of the
Hawaiian Government which secured the restora-
ton, and to the general principle that 1t is only
by righteousness that national existence is pre-
served"

On Tuesday, Kekai plead guilty to stealing a pair
of boots. He was proved to have been an old hand
at petty larceny, and got nine months at hard labor
for the boots. Naiole, was drunk on Monday and
beat his wife. She was unrelenting, and so he was
fined SO.
and q native were proved TO have had a scufle, a
clinch, and a haul-in. 1t was because the native
helped himself to too much sugar in his tea. The
Court considered the parties about equally TO blame
and fined each 50. Charles Smith was charged with
assault and battery on Robert Charlton. On hear
ing the evidence, the tables were turned and Charl-
ton was shown to have been the aggressor, so the
complaint was discharged and complainant ordered
to pay costs.
On Thursday, VIM. Ryan, for an assault on Ka-
imi, and setting his dog on him, was fined $50 and
costs.
