MAGIC AND YsTERY.-Professo Zamloch, the
Austrian Conjuror, gave his initial performance, in
the art d~idblique, at Bufum's Hall on the evening
of the End inst, in presence of His Majesty the
King, and Royal Family, and also a very large and
fashionable audience. The programme consisted of
the usual receptions, slight of hand, illusions, ETC.,
many Of which have been produced here before, but
were reproduced by Zamloch in such a manner as to
entirely conceal the identity, and also as 10 COM
pletely battle the audience. The Cafe de Grand
Mogul trick, where from two silver cups and 8 glass
tumbler, shown to be empty, the coDjuror quickly
produced some excellent coffee, milk and sugar, and
distributed it among the audience to test the reality
and excellence of the component parts, was excellent
and highly appreciated by the audience. The basket
trick, dono as it is by the Professor, has caused many
of the simple minded natives TO believe that he was
Though not 30 loquacious as Thorne, Zamloch is far
superior to him as a prestidigitateur doing the
tricks neater and with less assistance. Thursday,
the 9th inst, the second performance OF the Professor
was also largely attended, and by the same appre-
ciative class of people. the reserved seats again being
we'll sold before the opening OF the doors. AT this
latter performance, a parlor entertainment, his
ability as q palmlst, received well deserved applause.
Tonight he gives a change of programme, and by
special request will reproduced his "trip to the i'm
fernal regions, and it would be advisable for it
tending spectators to obtain seats early. Why can4
not Zamloch give a matinee performance and thus
allow many ladies and children to enjoy his pleasing
performances? He may be sure of a good house.
The FIREMENS PARADE.-Ihe usual annual
parade of the Honolulu Fire Department took
place on last Tuesday the 3rd inst, and notwith-
standing the fact that the streets were in a very
unfavorable condition to allow the retention Of
gloss on the originally well BACKED boots of the
fire ladies' and also the frequent and cOpious
outpouring of the aqueous fluid from the realms
above, the parade was fairly successful in point
of numbers and the usual eclat which accompanies
such occasions. Promptly at 10 A. NJ. the line of
march was taken up by the companies who had
assembled at the designated place OF meeting. at
the Engine House OF Mechanic No. 2, and pro-
ceeded in the following order:

THE BBLANA.
Facts Prove the New Brunswick Did Not
See Her.

The st. John reporters visited the wreck of
the Eblana Tuesday. On the way the subject
that seemed to occupy most of the attention of
the party was the conduct of the captain of
the steamer New Brunswick in passing the
wreck without offering assistance That he
had not been guilty of any such inhuman act
was pretty clearly demonstrated as the tug
approached Niger Head. With every eye on
board strained to catch first glimpse of the
hull, and powerful glass in the hands Of an
experienced seaman, and the position of the
wreck we'll known to those on board. it was
not until the tug was mnch closer than the
New Brunswick would go on her way down
the bay that the remains of the Eblana were
discovered. 1t is not difficult, therefore, to un-
derstand how steamer might pass the spot
1ully half a mile away without seeing her.
One st. John paper states:
AS the American. boat went by the scene of
the disaster she was hailed by the distressed
men. Some shouted, others whirled their hats
and Wilson shook the captains coat (Which
that party had taken off before he made the
Inflated ettempt to reach the shore.) A man
showed his head out of the wheel house, but
paid no attention to their signals.
The Boston journal says:
When the steamer New Brunswick arrived
from st. John yesterday afternoon Capt.
thompson was shown newspaper containing
the statement, made by sailors rescued from
the wrecked barque Eblana, that his steamer
passed within sight of their signals of distress
without stopping to succor them. Capt. Thomp-
son said that the sailors might have seen the
steamer as they say, she being so much larger
than the spar to which they were clinging but
no one on board the New Brunswick saw any
one ne, in need of help. The day was very thick,
a binding snow-storm prevailing and the wind
being very high. When forty minutes out of
St. John, the steamer passed within a very
few feet of four pieces of wreck-stuff, but
neither the captain, the mate, the two pilots
nor the steward, all of whom on the lookout,
saw anything more at any time. Capt. Thomp-
son has been twenty years in the employ of the
International Steamship Company, and is as
widely and favorably known as any master
sailing out of Boston. No one who knows
him gave any credence to the report of his in
humanity.
