| This is also untrue, as driver Considers him eli

drivers being such . LOW class Of men, rs lie

fat es twice. the writer is mistaken. everybody
mbly do ao- Tbs drivers work npon per-
ccntage, being entitled to every seventh fare.
and it is to their financial interest
to see thst every passenger pays his fare. Most
nre men OF families and with their meagre
wac es have to support their families, and is it
not just that they should have everything that
rirhtfullv belongs to them? 4? And probably the
writer OF that article is one Of those dead-bcats
who would be mean enouoh to snatch the bread
from the mouths OF those poor drivers. He
little knows OF the trials aud daily duries to
which car driver is subject to. They havo to
be uD from daylight to dark. and have to be ont
IN all kinds OF weather, working from sixteen to
eighteen hours day, for the average wages OF
S2.25 day. Some OF them eat almost all of
their meals on their cara and in mid-winter it il
not . luxury to eat a cold breakfast unon = car.
We do coincide with q: hsrs that the last cars
ATE m imposition upon the public. bnt the
drivers are not resnone'b!e for this. The Super
intendent, 1fr. c. 3. Holmes, is an able and we'll
meaning man. bnt he certainly is not capable Of !
filing the situation that has been assigned him

ers to direce and manage tho affairs OF the cor
poraton.
Hoping that the public will be little easier /
with car-dFivers in the future and not be always
consuming them for every little act done By their
CompanY. and wait for short time. when there
will be change that will be preferable to both
the drivers apd the public. Respectfullv yours

Mr.. EDITOR AS the present is the season when
Horticulturists large and small. resume their oper-
ations and proceed to sow seeds for flowers and
vegetables for spring and summer crops, | feel it
my duty to caution them against procuring their
supplies from some Honolulu retailers, who coolly
declare their seeds to be fresh and certain to vege-
tate, whilst they are well aware that they have
lain on their shelves for years, and are utterly
effete and more than worthless, entailing as they
must not only the loss of the price paid for the
seeds, but great disappointment in the total
failure of the expected crops. L myself having
been so v~ictimized, and many others have COM
planned to me of being similarly humbugged. L

Francisco, and ecommen to all others to go

reported to be a total loss. The Captain, Paiey, a

Boar CAPsrzED AND Two MN DKowxED.-By
letter from the Office Of the Governor Of Maui, dated
on the Goth inst. We learn that on Monday last. a
boat going from Molokai to Lahaina, when aboat mid
channel, was capsi1ed by a sea- There were three
men in the boat, Kolia. Namauu, and David Kamai-
Opili, District Justice Of Molokai. The two first were
drowned, one at midnight and the other about day
light, but Mr.. Kamaiopili chung to the keel until the
boat drifted opposite to kaohsi, Lanai, and about
noon OF Tuesday he was seen by the people IN shore
anu rescued lie was badly bruised on the breast ana
knees from being frequently washed from his hold on
the bottom of the boat by the seas breaking over her.
\ HAWAIIAN PRIMA oYNA.-Amon the passen-
gers by the last steamer from Honolulu was Miss
Adelaide Miller, a young lady whose musical power
has won her celebrity on the islands. The Hawai-
ians are a music loving race, nearly all gifted with
sweet voices, but Miss Miller is reputed as the sweet
est singer in the Hawaiian Kingdom. She recently
gave several concerts in Honolulu, and the press and
public were enthusiastic in her praise. The Homo
lulu papers describe her voice as of remarkable COM
pass as well as of remarkable sweetness, and her
rendition as marked both by exactness and soul
On her fathers side Miss Miller is of Scotch extrac-
ton, and on her mothers is descended from one of
the old native families, her grandfather, who is stnl
alive, having been one of the warriors of the first
Kamehameha. To a sweet voice she unites a most
prepossessing personal appearance and grace of man
ner and motion. Having selected a musical career,
she comes to San Francisco for further instruction
aud practice in her art, and will, we trust. give the
San Francisco public an opportunity of hearing her
at an early days. F. Erening Post.

And as the weather looked threatening, anchored at
a considerable distance from the shore. In former
years when the whaling business was in its prime,
Waimea was a favorite resort for whale-ships, where
