The THEATRE.-The initial performance Of the
Royal Illusionists, Messrs. Thorne and Darwin, was
given at the Royal Hawaiian Theatre on last Thurs
day evening, and TO a crowded house. The frtt part
of the evenings entertainment introduced Mr..
Thorn in legerdemain and prestidigitarian tricks, and
showed him to be apt both with tongue and fingers.
The producing of four bowls full of water and gold
fish from a large-sized silk handkerchief, and the
instantaneous disappearance Of a cage containing q
live canary, bothered the wiseacres present, who
usually know how such things are done. but in this
instance their ideas failed to connect. The closing
portion of the performance consisted Of spirituslistic
performances in a cabinet, and was enlivened By the
appearance Of six prominent Honolulu citizens on
the stage. who appeared in the character Of an in
vestigating committee, but the information they gave
with regard to what they discovered will not add much
to the discontinue of the visiting spirits. Mr.. Darwin
is the mediumistic power and be and Mr.. Thorn fur
nished food for two hours Of merriment enjoyed By
all present. This evening the Illusionists give their
second entertainment, and those wishing to pass a
pleasant evening should procure the necessary pass
ports early.

u THE PROBLEM SoLvED-Everybody acquainted
with the windward coast of Observation-Disclosures
and IA part of Hilo-knows that there are no har-
bors there and that landings are very precarious.
The northeast trade winds blow against the
broadside OF the Island. For ages probably this
has been going on and the result of the combined
attack of winds and waves and rains is that the
whole surface of Hamakua and Hilo is scanned
with great gulches. bordered on the sea by steep
precipices, their bases washed by the eternal
surpes of the whole vast North Pacific Ocean. But
this large district of Hamakua especially, is a
great alluvial deposit from Maunakea, an extinct
volcano, perhaps extinct a thousand years. judging
from its appearance. The accumulated wash of
Maunakea. is many feet in depth, and constitutes
a wonderfully rich soil. Sugar plantations have
been projected all along the coasts OF which we
are speaking. but the difficulty has been the appar-
| ent impossibility of making a landing, in the first
place to get machinery and material on sbere, and
| afterwards to embark produce. The problem APT
pears to have at length been solved. Mr.. John
stone. as we are given TO understand, after several
eudeavors under unfavorable circumstances, has
at lengb succeeded in making the Wire Tramway
at Honokaa a complete success. SO at least we
are informed by Mr.. Robert Burns. who recently
arrived from the place. Coasters have been en-
abled to land cargo and take off produce. by means
of the :. Wire, '-which they could not have other
wise done without a delay OF at least a mOnth,-in
consequence OF the boisterous weather that has
lately prevailed all over the group. We under
stand that the same system will be adopted at va
rious points along the Hamakua Coast. and thus
there will be no more trouble about the want Of
landings. Two hundred feet is rather a tall pre-
cipice to descend in d cage suspended by a wire
cable. with the risk that an accident may precipi-
tate you that distance on to the rocks and breakers
down below. But the pioneer in a descent of this
kind was a native woman-if We had her name we
would embalm it-and she bore herself more
bravely through the perilous descent than her
haoIe companions.

"A LITTLE BRIEF AUTHORITY --An instance OF
the abuse OF brief authority on the part Of a native
policeman. came under our notice on Thursday. A
big, stout kanaka. wearing a badge, and therefore
presumably a member of the force, entered a gate
OF certain premises on Emma street. and without
showing any warrant proceeded TO arrest a native
woman, whom he dragged with violence through
the streets to the Station house. As the man en-
tered the gate, be made use OF very profane Ian
guage, whereby he or anybody else would be liza
BILE to punishment under Section 5 OF Chapter "a Of
the Penal Code. There was, in the opinion Of
those who witnessed the affair, not the slightest
cause for the display Of violence on the part Of the
policeman, much less for his use Of foul and pro-
fame language in the presence OF women and chill
dren. The name of The man we are told is Moku-
ahi. which literally means steamboat. We trust
that the proper authorities will see that his extra
steam is promptly blown Of.

South, we learn some interesting facts regarding
the Polynesian labor market, to which we must
look for our future s~upply-unless, indeed, we
conclude to submit to becoming a mere Chinese
colony. The impediments placed in the way of
procuring South Sea Islanders by Sir Arthur Cor
don are said no longer to have any effect. Prob
ably he has learned better. AT all events the
immigration of South Sea Islanders TO FIJI and
Queensland is now said to be going on briskly.
The planters get the labor they want independent
OF the government authorities. although under
government surveillance. But the planters make
their own bargains as to wages. In the Auckland
papers the statement is made that some planters
at FIJI own vessels in the business, and others
charter them.
