Hawaii nei will thus be introduced into the great
family of nations. Welcome, Spark

THE COOLIES are coming nearer to us every day.
We now read in a New Zealand Journal the following
statement with reference to the proposed introduction
of coolies into the Fits "Sir A. Gordon is about
to attempt to supplement-, if not altogether supplant,
Polynesian labor in the Fiji Islands by that Of Indian
coolie labor Under these circumstances, the
Hawaiian Governments Agent, at present in the
Fijis, Capt. Mist, should meet with little difficulty in
securing there a large batch Of Polynesian laborers
for these islands.
An EYE To THE FUTURE.-As soon as Earl Carnar-
Won and President Hayes kindly unite us with the
British Australian Colonies and the States. and in
deed with the whole telegraphic world, by laying
down the submarine cable proposed by Lord Nor
manby-we think we may state that Baron Reuters
Telegraphic Agent here will be q gentleman connect
ed with the Honolulu press, who for the present
shall be nameless-not Balaam's ass, however
New SUBMARINE TUNNEI~-Thc remark of the
present writer in the South African Press a couple
of years ago that people would yet take a rail
way ticket in C~apetown for Paris, London, or ST.
Petersburg, is in a fair way of being realized, as
we conclude from the following telegram:
1T is proposed to bore a tunnel from near
AlgecIras, in Spain, to a point between Tangiers
and Ceuta, a distance of nine miles"
AS we then suggested. while this tunnel is Dor
ing, no time should be lost in beginning a rail
road. through Morocco, and the Sahara to st.
Louis of Senegal and Sierra Leone, with q branch
TO TimbuktOO, aud thence by the Niger valley TO
old Calabar, in the Blight OF Benin. from which il
should follow the west coast of Africa, through
the Portuguese possessions in Congo. Loango,
Angola and Benguela. to the British South African
Frontier. A railroad is in operation from Cape
town northwards by the coast for some miles as a
commencement of this gigantic scheme Of railway
communication between Great Britain and her
South African splendid possessions. The distance
from CapetOwn TO the Gibraltar Tunnel may be
set down at about 5000 miles.
NEw STocK.-We notice this week with real pleas
ure the importation by Mr.. J. L Richardson, of some
prominently superior live stock. With the facilities
which these islands possess for raising an~imals-shall
we say animals of all kinds, the introduction Of
superior breeds is not only a most praiseworthy un-
dertaking, but also one which undoubtedly indicates
in future a great success. OF the imported horses
we mention first a beautiful Kentucky stallion, IS
months old, sired by Terraseon, who was sired by
Prince Albert, he by Abdallah. lie by Mambrino, he
by imported Messenger. His dam was Sally Patton
by Tom Newcomb, he by Epsilon Gown brother to
Yamma) by Pacific. Sally Patton's dam was Cottnge
Girl, by imported Ceinderby, second dam Princess
Ana by imported LeyiathaD, third dam Sally Kerby
by Stakeholder, fourth dam by Barkdale's Gray Do
ullu udu O1 a = Il ElAAhh un ny 4
liar. Prince AlbeTt's dam was by Lance, son Of
American Eclipse. grandson Of imported Messenger.
Terraseon foaled in 1850, and weighs 1860 pounds.
This young stallion, son Of Terraseon, is named Ho-
kulele. The second stallion, General, a dark ches-
nut, and also a beauty, was sired by Young Geo. NJ.
Patchen, he by California Patchen, he by Geo. NJ.
Patchen Jr. Generals dam was q fine chestnut mare
sired by Young Prince Alfred, lie by Old Prince
Alfred. General has taken three premiums. Be-
sides these valuable horses Mr.. Richardson has i'm
ported several fine sheep and two really magnificent
bulls of the Durham breed. "Lallah Rookh F" has
q pedigree rather too lengthy for insertion in this
notice. He was sired by imported bull 'Water
Prince and such names as Vanguard, - " Brown
Prince "Duke Of Northumberland" are among
his ancestry, which makes "Lallah Rookh - one of
the best acquisitions to the stock Of this country.
The other bull, a splendid white Durham, promises
to be equally valuable. He comes from a good
family also, and the cows of his family used to give
from 81 to 1O1 pounds butter per week. Both ami
mails are kind and gentle, and q child two years old
can handle them. Mr.. Richardson imported also
some pigs of pure Essex breed, - aud, what must
be pleasant news to all who in the future will rejoice
in fat and juicy turkeys on Thanksgiving Days, some
genuine American turkeys. No domestic or barn
door fowls on these islands have more deteriorated than
the turkeys-not TO remark particularly upon ether
kinds of imported bipeds,-and it was indeed o good
forethought in Mr.. Richardson TO pay attention TO
lettering this WORKOUT fowl by the introduction Of a
superior breed.
Mr.. Richardson imported also a very fine car
riage horse for Mr.. Turton, and n span for Hon. ii.

beauty and points of the animals, and we would sug-
gest, in view of the fact that this stock is the finest
ever imported into this country, that Mr.. Richardson
should exhibit them at Emma Square on some pub
licly notified day, so that all might have an oppor-
tunity to admire the largest kind Of bovine ever seen
in Hawaii mel. Of chickens we have lots Of all
breeds.
We ARE amused to notice that, since the publica-
ton Of a paragraph from the Northern .AdUOcate of
Whangarei, the Ga-ette's hybrid a" has abated his
slanderOu3 invectives against our Maori fellow sub
jects of New Zealand. Whether this country will be
able to get q few Maori families TO come here as plan
tation settlers, we know not; but, we still believe
that they would be an acquisition with their children
under present circumstances Of the native population
of these Isles. Sir George Grey, we think, will favor
the scheme, if this government decides to look for
some married Maoris with their families in that
quarter. At a recent debate in the New Zealand
parliament, Sir George was called upon to make
some explanations concerning his policy when gov
ernor Of New Zealand, with reference TO The treat
ment Of the native Maoris, and he is reported TO have
said: 1.-The object Of the proposed plan was TO pre-
vent natives from selling the land in perpetuity, -
a proof Of Sir Georges solicitude for the best inter-
ests of the Maoris. Sir George has a different opin-
ion Of the Maoris from that expressed by the SANDER
GUS writer in the Gazette. Recently the same writer
accused all the Maoris Of Whangarei and the Bay Of
Islands districts with being q lazy, idle, goOd-fOr-
nothing lot, and boosted that he knew all about that
part of the country and its native population, whom
he charged with being even greater oilers than the
Hawaiian natives. Now, TO give our readers some
idea of the audacious SANDERS Of this I" pakeha," we
shall refer to a report in the Northern .9dUocGte ola
meeting Of several high chiefs Of The Maoris on Sep
TENDER llth last, at WhangaPei, with Judge Monro, \
Assessor Rehia Tie Kauae, and Mr.. Grey, Clerk Of the
Native Lands Court. That journal says:
''Amongst the principal chiefs we noticed: Tie IL

Rata Tiakiriri, Tito Tirarau, Honi Winiata. WHARF,
