tay- The Royal Hawaiian Circus was well attend
ed on Saturday night last, but by no means well
as when fret opened The people would like to pat
ronize the circus but the fact is two entertainments
week, with matinees thrown in is just little too
much, and the people can't afford IT, There is such
thing milking a good cow dry, aud We think
our stOwmen will lind it SO erelOng. 1T is really
surprising the progress the native riders in the
circus are making. Every evening they show i'm
prOvement, and in shoit time, with careful train

icy The Angel Of Death has been making sad
inroads upon some Of the most conspicuous of the
native race on these Islands within few months

William L. Noehonua followed the remains of that
good citizen and prominent representative man to
their last resting place; and now another we'll

whence no traveller returns. Gu the 18th of the

IMMIGRATloN.-On Saturday morning the 18th
inst, :here was meeting of gentlemen connected
with the Chamber OF Commerce of this city, aud
others interested in the question of procuring la
borers for the Industries of these Islands from
abroad. The meeting was presided over by the
Hon. Godfrey Rhodes, with II. L. Sheldon, ESQ.,,
acting as secretary Mr. Rhodes stated the object
OF the meeting to be- to consider the most favOra-
Bile methods of obtaining iabOrers from India, and
inasmuch as Mr. Horn, gentleman from Mauri-
thus was present. be requested that gentleman to
favor the meeting with such Information as he
thought necessary. Mr. Rhodes read at the same
time series Of questions which he had committed
TO the paper Mr.. Horn took the questions, and
after stating that he thought the best way wOnld
be to furnish him with list of such questions as
the meeting wished him 10 answer in writing, and
he would willingly answer Them In writing How
ever be (Mr. Horn was willing aud did proceed to
answer the Inquiries on the Memorandum in very
satisfactory manner. The Hon. II. A. P. Carter,
our late Envoy to Great Britain made statement
In which he gav9 the substance of the experience
he had while abroad on the subject of obtaining
laborers from India, aud wound up by declaring it
as his opinion that the attempt would be failure,
unless at least from Two to four hundred thousand
dollars were raised aud expended, and then
be believed that the thing wss impracticabe, owing
to the difficulties which would be placed in the
way by the Indian Government and people, both of
whom are averse to the migration of the coolies 10
any other countries; and especially so far removed
from India the Hawaiian Islands. Mr. Carter
gave it as his opinion that this Government must
look to Madeira, and the Portuguese Islands, for
the laborers needed to supply the demands OF .be
planters. After a desultory discussion, in which
several gentlemen participated, on motion Judge
Widemann the meeting adj burned tOmeetf at the
same place one week hence, at II o'clock A. NJ.

INTERESTING ExPERMESTs.-LAst week some
Interesting experiments were tried in our harbor
by officers from the Russian gun boat now here
The experiments alluded TO consisted Of efforts to
remove some coral rock near the northeast corner
OF the Esplanade wharf, by the explosion of torpe
does or submarine explosives which did most ex-
eelleut execution. Whether the distractions were
all removed or not we cannot say, nor do We know
whether the experiments were designed 10 do more
than merely exhibt the praciicability OF removing
distractions by submarine explosives OF modern
Invention, the exhibition OF which interest
lug as well as new 10 our people. We regret we
were not present to witness the experiments
spoken OF so as TO be able TO give satisiac-
rory description of them.

ST. PATRIOK's DAY.-Monday last, the 18th inst,
was ST.. Patrick's Day. 1t passed off in Honolulu
more quietly than any other place We have ever
been in on such occasions The fact is we did not
notice ripple the surface OF society, nor did We
see I" a sprg OF shillaleh or shamrock so green"
all day. This Is to be accounted for from the fact
that there are fewer SONS oil Erns Isle in Homo
lulu than any city OF its size We have ever visited,
and hence the reason the day passed off without
any demonstration whatever. We will say this
much, however, that if history speaks the truth,
ST. Patrick or lrelauds patron saint deserves CRATE
full remembrance, not only from 1rishmen but from
the good ofevery land The illustrious 81. Patrick
was famed for doing good while on earth, and why
should not his memory be cherished By the good
men of all ages creed and nations. For our own
part We have always from our youth up felt
reverence tor the character and life work OF the
great apostle of the Roman Catholic Church.
St. Patrick, among other good works, is said TO
have banisbed the snakes and tuads from Ireland.
But whether this tradition is true not thing
is certain that there neither snakes toads or
any other reptile in all Ireland. But this is not ALL
IL is fact that neither snakes toads can live in
Ireland. The experiment has been tried time and
again, but always failed from some cause not yet
explained. We remember to have seen 1t stated by
some malicious fellow who had no love for Ireland
or Irishmen, when speaking of St. Patrick driving
the snakes aud toads from Erin, that he (St Pa
trick drove tie snakes aud toads out of the land
aud into the people" This We believe TO be
malicious SANDER of course because We know in
fact II is prOyerbisl that tue Irish people, with all
their impressiveness, the most Kind hearted and
generous OF any people on the globe. We have
even found II SO in our own experience, and there
fore have q warm side for an lrishman wherever we
meet him.
