1SoMErHING OF \ CoINCIDENCE-Tbirty-one years

Dsldlrdre. Capt. Deblois Penhallow, Master OF the
u. {. Pdrke, spent his boyhood days in Honolulu,
and HOW returns to visit the scenes of his childhood,
a bronzed and bearded man, and master of a ship.
Es- The examination at the Royal School took
place on Wednesday last, and was very creditable
to both pupils and teachers. These last are Rev.
a. Macintosh, Principal Mrs. Kinney, and the
Misses B~rickwoOd and Fernandez. The exhibition
was held on the evening of the 9Th, and drew a
crowded audience of ladies and gentlemen, who
were highly pleased with the exercises. The deco
rations were much admired Their MaJesties the
King and Queen hOnored the occasion by their
presence. The Royal School continues to main
tain its reputation as one OF the best institutions OF
education in the city.
He THoUGHT THEY WERE FULL.-During a discus
sion in the Assembly of the item of $500 for the pur~
chase Of law books for the use of the Supreme Court,
told that the books were necessary in order to post
the Judges in law matters, and the precedents of
other countries. On that hint, he spoke, and among
other pertinent observations said 81 he had been under
the impression that the Judges were selected for their
positions because they were already full of knowledge,
and now it seems that they have room for more; in
fact, they want to complete their education at the
public expense. Let them pay for their schooling
out of their own pockets, as other people do. Strike
out this appropriation for law books!
Fatal ACCIDENT.-On Thursday afternoon last,
a native named Kuheleloa rode into town from
Kawa on horseback. When past the prison, the
bride reign broke on one side, and the horse,
which 1t is said has been a racer, started, and ran
away with his rider. He went past the Station
House at full speed, the man evidently trying his
best with the one rein to check him, and at Halls
corner he whirled suddenly down Fort street and
threw the man, who struck with his head on the
curb-stone, fracturing his skull and killing him in
stantly. The Marshal and officers of the police
witnessed the accident, and had the body conveyed
to the Station House on a stretcher, whence il was
taken to the residence of the family. huheleloa
was a well-known industrious carpenter, about 30
years old, and leaves a wife and child. 1t is not
true, as reported, that he was under the Influence
of liquor at the time.
ELEVENTH OF JUHE.-LastT Thursday vas Kameha-
meha 1. Memorial Day, and was kept as a public hol-
iday, government Offices and places of business gen
orally being closed, and a salute fred from Punch
bowl at noon. There was no demonstration of a pub
lie nature, except music by the band at the Palace.
Horse-riding was INDUCED in plentifully, and there
we're numerous Iu0us. Some drunkenness was OBJ
served, but not in so large a degree as often before on
public days. \ walk all over the city in the after
noon resulted in a count of thirteen persons mani
| fes1y under the influence of drink. There we're only
six or seven names on the list at the Station-hOuse on
Friday morning. The fact that the Police recently
made a raid on the beer dens of Magnakea street may
have had something TO do with the moderate amount
of drunkenness. -
TEMPERANCE MEETISG.-The mass-meeting at Ka-
waiahao Church on Sunday last was well attended by
