SATURDAY, JANUARY %, 1881.

WE learn from correspondence per
Zealandia, that it is rumored in diplomatic
circles in Europe, that a protectorate of
this Kingdom mas been proposed to the
Government of the German Empire. This
rumcr is said to be based upon the unAu-
thOrized discussion OF a Hawaiian agent
abroad. 1t is to be regretted that there is
any one in a position to thus compromise
the country.

which about 5000 bags were taken by = house outside Of
