u "A CHINESE DoCToR arrived here on board the
mix from China. lie was induced to come at
the urgent instance of Messrs. Chulan & Co.,
a very respectable Chinese merchant of Homo
lulu. He brings testimonials of respectability
in his position and his practice in his own land.
But as he cannot bring a diploma from a recog-
nized institution, that would be accepted as or
thodox within the province Of enlightened ma
teria madden, therefore he is denied q license TO
practice as a physician in Honolulu. We recog-
nize the Importance of precaution in respect to
granting licenses to quacks and pretenders of
any race, who may seek in the way of trade
to scatter ignorantly all manner OF nostrums
throughout this sick land. There is probably
no good reason for licensing q Hindoo or a Malay
practitioner in these isles, unless such a one
could prove some exceptional skill, because there
are none of these races here, who would be in
sympathy with a medical man of their own
tongue. But it is far different in respect to a
Chinese applicant. There are many thousands,
of Cinnamon IN these isles, and if he has the
good will of the respectable portion of his coun-
try men, it would seem reasonable that he shouldg
be permitted To- try his skill in healing among
his compatriota even if he have no medical cre+
Dental, and cannot undergo an European med
ical examination.

OUR NOSES, LIoHENs, lychopods, hydropterides
and he[ atics, are likely 10 attract more attention
than our ferns. Our beautiful flices are well
known, we are told by the scientific gentlemen Of the
Challenger. to European boianisis, but the interest
ing lower orders Of vegetation Of these isles are not
go well known. Swedish naturalist, DR.. Berggren,
is now engaged in collecting for the University Of
Lund, our island moses. And SO We may expect a
moss fever TO diminish the hitherto prevalent fern
fever. However, SO long as ferns sell. that fever
will not seriously decline; or it may settle down to a
business in the hands of a few experts, as il now the
case in the British colonies. But the scientist proper
and amateur collector, irrespective of dollars, will be
giving a attention to the smallest vet
most beautiful subjects of the vegetable kingdom.
On the small Island of Lanai, we have collected over
forty genera Of moses, named by DR.. Berggren, such
as the bright glossy green hypnums, the soft delicate
white clQdonias, the dark brown reticulated Tndukns,
the yellow plumed dtcTanums, the transparent pale
green symphyogyAas, the beautious planes like
q prince of Wales feathers" named the Eeuco5ryums;
and the rubescent and golden tufts, so much admired
by ladies, named rhi=o gonyum, with all the other
genera, too numerous TO mention, and these include
many hundred species. What pastures of delight
are these lower orders Of Gods wonderful works.
All think US not frivolous, whilst We search about
trunks Of trees, among stones, and under dead
leaves in moist and shady glens for these little hidden
waits Of creation. 4 peoples greatness is not esti-
mated by the coin they get from the products Of the
sOil, but rather by the knowledge they obtain from a
study of tree, bush and plant, of bark, root and limb. Of
leaf and cepal, and Of frond and spore of our Heavenly
