Tuesday, the day appointed for the funeral Of the
bite King davHed gioomily, and as the hour drew
near for the assembling Of the different bodies, civil
and military, that were to take part in the procession
TO the Tomb the dark clouds that bad been hanging
IN the west moved over the town. and midst peals OF
thunder and lightning flashes, the rain fell in abund-
anee- As thunder storms are very rare here.-there
being seldom more than one each year,-and do not
generally last long, everybody hoped that by eleven
o'clock the sky would be clear again But shortly
before that hour orders were SAINT to oil parts of the
poned until Saturday next Dy the time the people
had fairly dispersed AID gone home. the rain cleared
md the rest Of the day was pleasant with sunshine.
The town looked quite holiday-like in the afternoon
and evening. A large number Of Hawniians visited
the Hotel and were entertained by Mr.. Herbert. 1t
was the opinion OF many, that a. every preparation
had been made to carry out the programme Of the
funeral, IL wOuh have been better 10 haye done so in
spite OF the Fain, bus as il now promises to be fine
for the rest Of the week, We hope that Saturday will
be pleasant.

GEORGE SEYMOUR KENWAY.

The news that comes to us from Hilo of the
death of Mr. Kenway, has an especial and mel.
aneholy interest for us as journalists, as it COM
pels us to realize that not only has a devoted
husband and father gone from out a family circle,
n warm friend from the midst of friends, and a
useful man from amongst his fellow men, but a
brilliant and sagacious writer has at last laid
down his pen,-a man of letters is at rest.
Mr.. KenwaY, as n writer, possessed a happy
flow of thought that served to invest with inter
est whatever topic he discussed. His political
perceptions were keen, as was his knowledge of
men and their motives of action. He never con-
descended to temporize with q wrong, and the
many readers of the letters from HiIo, over the
signature of n ., which have found space in our
columns from time to time, will sympathize with
US in the deep regret that we feel at the loss of
such a correspondent.
y poor state of health, many disappointments,
and a keen perception of the needs of these ISL
ands, politically and morally, all served to give a
pointed, and at times, cynical tone to his letters {:
but be never misjudged Ii man or n measure, and
only applied the cautery, when the nature of the
evil demanded it.
NO further seek his merits To disclose,
Or draw his frailties from their dread abode,
There they alike in trembling hoTe Teposcl

To The EiitOr Of he Pacific Commercial advertiser
DEAR SIR 1T becomes our painful duty to an

We fndL in an exchange this story Early in
the rebellion, when the Federal forces were sta
toned ut Beaufort, South Carolina, there was an
oSd darkey OF the name Of Lige jackson who,
deserted by his master, was left to take care Of
himself as best he might. Lige was considered a
chattel Of weak intellect, and, moreover, he was
exceedingly awkward IN his attempts TO play the
role of house servant He smashed and destroyed
nearly everything that be laid his hands upon,
and having waited upon nearly every officer ut
the post, each in turn, after giving him the bene-
fit of some hard language for his stupidity, turn
cd him adrift.
lie happened that Liege was a witness in n case
that elme before = C-Ourt-martial, and being
called up 10 give his testimony, it " 5 objected
to on the part Of the defendant, who stated that
he didn't believe the niger was Of sound mind.
"Stnnd up, Lige," said the Court. DO you
understand the nature Of an oath ?"
Lige scratched his head for a moment, and
then, turning mp The white Of his eyes, replied

VERY THOUGHTFUL aud appropriate were the
words that fell from the lips Of a distinguished
Parsonage on the evening Of Wednesday last
- Let all g,od men icrycntly thank God for the
peleeable conclusion OF this days proceedings"
There was indeed great cause for thankGulness-
greater cause than the foreign public is generally
aware Of. The remark was frequently heard
previous 10 that day, that the native people would
not be likely to submit quietly to the election Of
any one n King, other than the man whom they
had unanimously chosen on New Years day but
there is ample proof, Cand now that the matter Is
safely settled it Is well to say So that the people
were determined when they went down 10 the
Court House on Wednesday last, that LuNALILO
should be King before the Assembly rose that
day, and that they were secretly armed, and pre-
pared to make him King by force if necessary. At
h~alf-past twelve, the slightest spark would have
served TO set ablaze the PASSIONS of the populaoe
that surrounded the Court House, and the posi-
bic consequences are fearful to contemplate.
When we are aware of the depths to which their
minds were stirred, daring the uncertainty that
hung about tine result, we can well understand
the unbounded JOY and enthusiasm Of the people
when they knew for a certainty that the Assembly
was unanimous for LUNALILO. Let Us all, then,
thank God for the peaceable conclusion.
