ed. In the same way. we suppose that the firm
authorized by government to act as its agent
here in this business should receive applications
from the parties interested to bring over 50 many
Islanders, at the same time receiving from the
employers the cost OF their passage-money-
Il may be added that the government, in the
importation of those South Sea Islanders, has
not lost sight Of a most important feature of I'M
migration to these Islands, the desirability of all
adult male immigrants being accompanied by
their wives, if possible. We hear that every
effort viii be made by the government to bring
over women, in equal proportion with men, if
not in excess, if they can be obtained. We have
no doubt that many of those poor South Sea
islanders, with their wives and families, would
be very glad to make up their minds to settle
down definitely here, if this government made
them grants or allotments of land, as We under
stand it ~contemplates doing.
+ AS the business is of such vast Importance
for the planters, whose enterprises are daily more
land more ~hanpered for want of hands, it Is
highly desirable that they should lose no time IN
making their applications, so as to enable the
government to proceed at once TO import these
South Sea Islanders according TO the n above
explained. We are glad TO be able TO congratulate
the planters and employers Of labor on the great
Likelihood of this scheme for the importation of
time-expired South Sea Islanders at the Fijis-
which the PACIFIC COMMERCIAL ADVERTISER first
mooted not long ago-being ere long satisfacto-
rily and efficiently carried out, thanks to the
active and energetic measures of our government.

Miss Aylett's School.

The closing exercises Of this school were held on
Tuesday last, and gave great pleasure to a large
audience of friends. The young teacher showed
herself, through the exercises of her pupils, 10 be
worthy Of highest confidence as an educator. The
general order of the school was excellent the reci-
tations were conducted strictly as reviews Of the
term work, and visitors present were offered the
privilege of selecting the lessons, and examining the
scholars. This privilege was accepted in the case
of some of the classes, and the result was perfectly
satisfactory to all. The reading classes had been
we'll drilled, and the accent, infections and enuncia-
ton was commendable TO the highest degree. 1t
seems almost unkind to particularize where all were
so proficient; but we cannot refrain from speaking
of the very acceptable manner in which Miss Han
nah Paul read her selection from the Third Reader.
Nor must we omit to record the spelling and defn-
ing of %fity-fve words by this same young lady and
Miss Beckie Ruth, Of which only one word was not
correct. The songs. Number lessons. Geography
lessons, and general exercises were most admirably
presented and the satisfaction of friends was not
only manifested upon their faces but by the numer-
Gus gifts which they had brought in for their below
ed children. In connection with the exercises of
her school, Miss Aylett favored her audience with
several songs and guitar accompaniment By herself,
one of which-an original OBSERVATION-DISCLOSURES a
place in the musical publications of the land that
will not permit it to be lost to future vocalists. Long
may she prosper in the vocation she is so well-ftted
to adorn. nj. NJ. w.

Is ACCORDANCE with the rule adopted by Pres
ident Hayes whereby all Ministers Resident Of
the United States abroad of four years standing
are recalled, we understand that His ExceIlency
II. A. Peirce has been informed by his govern
ment that his successor as Minister Resident at
the Court OF Hawaii has been appointed, and
will arrive here IN September next. Mr.. Peiree
has held the position during the past eight years,
with honor and to the acceptance of his govern
ment and Of his countrymen residing in these
Islands while the important aid rendered by
him to Hawaii in the course of the negotiations
which resulted in securing the Treaty of Reel
p~rocity, should ever be remembered by our
people with gratitude.

School Examination at Waialua.

The examination of the HaleiTa Female
Seminary at Waialua, Oahu. under the manage
ment of Miss Mary E. Green, took place on the zist
inst, and will long be remembered WITH pleasure oy
those who were present. The morning was beau
tiful. and the church, Rhsre the examinations came
OF. was tastefully decorated with flowers and ever
greens, and the paintings of the Scholars, appro-
DriateIy framed, added much TO its appearance.
Many visitors we're present from various paris OF
the island, and manifested q lively interest in all
the proceedings. g,
The examinations commenced at 9 A. NJ, and
were conducted by Miss Green, who was efficiently
assisted by Miss Lidgate and Miss annie Nalima-
The scholars showed an admirable discipline and
training, and gave evidence that perseverlng industry
and skill had been employed. The singing was ex-
cellent, and many melodIous voices were heard as
the school sang in concert. The native HaWalIans
are noted for their fine voices, and the scholars NJ
WaiaIua are no exception TO the general rule.
The classes in History, Geography and Mathe-
MATES acquitted themselves well. Several compost
tious were read Of considerable merit. The decla-
nations and recitatious of several Of the scholars
infants in yesrs-sLJWed great theatrical talent.
Two of the Youngest gIris-certainly not more tEan
FIVE wears of age-seemed 10 feel and appreciate
everything they said, even tuelr geslcu4lilons
yeuld have done credit 10 much older persons.
The examination was concluded about ] +. N,

JAMES Il. Houston, Esq. Attorney for the p.
NJ. Company, arrived on Thursday last by the
Ciiy Of Sydney, en- route for Australia on bust
Ministers, Mr.. Houston stated that, in the alb
sence of a subsidy from the Hawaiian govern
ment the Company's boats would positively
hereafter cease calling at the islands on their
voyages to and from Australia and that the
present visit OF the City Of Sydney was the last
to be made. He was informed however, that
this government was, and had been, prepared
to make a contract under the terms of which, the
subsidy granted by the last Legislature might
be paid to the Company. Mr.. Houston having
full powers to act for his Company, We under
stand that q memorandum of a contract was a.
greed to, in effect as follows: The steamers to con-
ne to call at Honolulu as heretofore, but to re-
main in port at least six hours of daylight on
each voyage to reserve on each trip to and from
San Francisco ten rooms for island passengers ;
and after the LIST of December next to put on an
additional boat between Honolulu and San Fran.
cisco, whereby the service Will become fortnight
ly instead of monthly, as at present. For these
considerations, the government will pay the
amount of subsidy granted by the last Leg
~islature, leaving to the next es ssion to decide
whether it shall be continued. Under all
the circumstances, and in view of the increased
facilities that are promised in the contemplated
contract, we apprehend that the action of the gov
eminent will meet with the approval of the
community generally.
