OUR ROYAL VISITOR.

kalakaua, the Hawaiian King, now
on q visit to the United States, is a man
about 30 years old, of medium height,
portly form and dignified His
complexion is dark, resembling rather
the olive of The Mexican than the ebony
OF the African, hair slightly "kinky,"
eyes black aud full of pleasant express
sion, nose short and rather thick, mouth
shaded by mustache, round face,
adorned with side whiskers. He speaks
English fiuently, dresses like an Ameri-
can gentleman, and is al .fat in all
matters pertaining to the etiquette of
society and his station. He rules over
twelve little islands that lie just inside
the Torrid Zone, 1000 miles southwest
of San Francisco. His subjects num-

MISREPRESENTATION, English, Ger
man and Chinese. His capital IS Homo
ulu, a beautiful city of about -, 600 in
habitants, situated on the ~seacoast, m
powered in palm, algeroba, tanlarind,
and all the luxuriant foliage of the
tropics. Though it is a small nation
and rapidly decreasing, the machinery
OF the government is the same as that
of Il large nation. The King has his
Cabinet, Ministers of Finance, Of
Foreign Affairs, of the Interior, At
torney General, etc. Each inhabited
island has a Governor. The Parliament
consists of two bodies-House of Com
mons or Representatives., elected by the
people, and House of Nobles-mem-
bers Of the royal family, and others who
have received patents Of nobility from
the King.
There was a small standing army, but
the soldiers were not pleased with their
poi, or their officers, or their new
clothes, so they mutinied, and the King
disbanded them. Native policemen
loaf around the streets OF Honolulu,
gorgeous in redand blue uniform, white
caps and white shoes. If there is any
riot or disturbance, they join in and
have a good time.
