BANK OF CALIEoRSIA--This institution, amer a
suspension of about $ month, re-opened on the 2nd
Of Oct. amidst the rejOicings Of the San Franeiscans
Says the Chroaiels Perhaps the most striking,
though the least demonstrative feature Of the occa-
sion. was the manifestation Of public confidence
which ensued upon the opening Of the doors Of the
bank. There was no rush Of anxious depositors to
withdraw their funds. The only rush was for pre-
cedence by depositOrs eager to testify their faith in
the institution and commit their gold to its guardian
ship When the hour for closing had arrived.
81, lS0.o0O had been paid in on deposit, against
s254.000 Withdrawn. making an excess Of deposits
over Withdrawals of $4,000.

Gently that amateur collectors were aware OF the
large variety OF beautiful native MOSES that is to
be found in our woods and on our mountains We
had the pleasure lately OF examining a coliec-
ton of some eighty distinct varieties of ferns, gath
cred by a gentleman in his journeyings about the
group, all handsomely mounted and an equal
number of MOSES, both from the sea and the land.
These last were singularly beautiful, retaining all
the brilliant colors of nature. 1t occurred to us
that this collection (and we do not think there is
another like it on the islands, wonld look well in
the Hawaiian Department at the Centennial next
summer.

A NEWSPAPER LIBEL SUFT.-Tbe proptietors of
the San Francisco Bulletin and Cal have instituted
suit against those Of the Alta, damages laid at
S25. 900. The complaint, which is quite lengthy.
states in effect that the plaintiffs have never pub
lished any false news or unjust or untruthful COM
ments concerning the Bank of California or its
management, and have never c~onspired 10 injure
the bank or impair its credit, nor have ever en-
deayored to produce q financial panic in this state
or elsewhere, or to increase one when existing, for
the purpose of specializing in values or for any
other purpose hut that the defendants, prOprietors
of the alta, knowing the above facts. but enyying
the good name of the plaintiffs and their success as
journalists, have charged them with the above
mentioned acts in an article published in the Alta
of the 2lst Sept, which article is quoted as part OF
the corn lint. The probability of this suit being
commenced, has excited much comment. public
opinion being divided as TO the object in view, but
the belief seems to be unanimous that if pressed to
trial, raey developments win ensue.

DEATH IL A CENTRTFUGAI.-An accident occurred
at the sugar mill Of Haistead & Gordon at Waia-
lua, Oahu, on the 22d inst. whereby one of the
workmen, a Spaniard, lost his life. The man was
at work at a centrifugal, and was seen to fall into
it, but it is not known whether he slipped or was
taken with a ct. 1t was no fault Of the machine.
or of any one connected with the works. When
the centrifugal was stopped. which was almost i'm
mediately, the unfortunate man was quite dead,
and somewhat mangled. A coroner's jury return
ed a verdict in accordance with the above facts.
DESTRUCTION OF "BESzINE WHISKY by a late
arrival from the Arctic Ocean. we learn that the Rus.
sian authorities have at length become awake to the
fact that much Of the trading done with the Indians
up North Of late years has been terribly demoralizing
and destructive of life. During the past season Rus
sian cruisers have ordered off the traders, on the
Asiatic side, at least, and destroyed one depot Of
trade goods. The quality Of liquor which some Of
these traders have been selling to the Indians in e&r
change for furs, bone and ivory, is said to have beed
perfectly outrageous. Tie next move in the interest
of the natives will probably be to interdict the killing
of walrus, within certain limits.

ONE OF THE LOST ARTS
An Interesting Lecture.

JUDGE A. Van Wyck's lecture last
Tuesday night was we'll attended
and was very interesting. In his
travels in the Holy Land he gained
vast fund of inform alton. In
speaking Of the wonders of ancient
architecture, he told of seeing three
solid hewn stones, each sixty odd
feet long, seventeen feet thick, and
fourteen wide. They had been
placed upon top of one another, but
by what process of enginery is uu
known. This is the more astonish~
ing from the fact it would require
the force of 10000 men to lift one
of these stones one foot from the
ground, although impossible for that
many men to get hold of it. ItSeem-
ed the task was too great for them,
for they abandoned lifting these pom
derous stones and used others some
twenty-five feet long. How these
ancient builders got those weighty
stones, Of such tremendous proper
tions, on top of each other, is puz>
zle, not to say one of the 'lost arts"
This impresses one that the civiliza-
ton of the present century have
retrograded have failed to keep in
advance of the knowledge acquired
and arts practiced by those ancient
people buried with the ages past
They have left monuments that at
test this fact. The uncarthings of
Pompei bring to light much that
confirm the wise mans saying,
"there is nothing new under the
SUM-"

PORK.

The Montgomery Advertiser says
pork will probably be scarce and high
in the West, from all accounts. Not
withstanding the large corn crop OF
the Northwest, which is the pork pro-
ducing country, hogs are reported
scarce. The most powerful ring.
next to the whiskey ring, is the pork
ring of the West, and they are taxi
ing advantage of the reported scar
city of hogs to purchase all the pres,
ent and future pork, SO as to solidly
close the market until they get their
own profits. 1t will be fortunate

he makes himself independent of the
pork ring aud raise his own meat

neighborhood determines on it and
goes to work in earnest. 1t is good
time now to make the commence.

to procure every hog he can and fat
