Kauai Correspondence.

learn through the medium of your newspaper
that a resident physician has been recently
appointed for Kauai. 1t may not, therefore. be.
out of place to record through the same medium
a few events that have taken place in and around
Kilauea since the departure of DIR. Fitch, and
also to ask the question if the Government was
justified in removing the only medical practi-
toner at this side of the island ? l will not
elaborate on the sufferlngs of children and
mothers from not knowing what ails them nor
will 1 try to picture the narrowing scene of q
dying South Sea Islander, who could not express
his or her warts, bad he or she so wished. But,
suffice it to say, that several deaths have occurred
amongst Hawaiians, Chinese and South Sea
Islanders, all of which, il recorded, would natu-
rally come under the headings of Causes IN
known and Unattended" Perhaps through
your heightened experience on these islands, and
your wide knowledge of the sanitary arrange
ments of this kingdom, you can throw some
light on what appears to US, as residents of
kilauea, to be a high-handed, unjust, and in
human act on the part of the powers that re-
moved DR.. Fitch without Immediately filling the
vacancy caused theye.

M On Saturday last, A. d. Citizens was
brought up on remand before Judge Bickerton
on the charge of assulting his partner NJ. w. Nc
Chesney " with n weapon obviously and immi-
nently dangerous to life, to wit a hammer" Mr..
McChesney had sufficiently recovered from the
effects Of the blow he received to appear and
give evidence IN the case. He stated that on
25th November, he was at his place of business
for the first time after an absence of five days,
caused by sickness, and that after making some
inquiries as 10 the state of the firms bank ac-
count. he informed Citizens that he had left or
ders with Bishop K Co., to honor no cheques I'M
less signed by himself. Shortly afterwards while
ne was writing at his desk, Citizens came behind
him and he received " a tremendous blow on the
RIGHT side Of his head" He sprang up, calling
ont. and saw defendant behind him, leaning
back against the shelves, his right arm hanging
down, his right hand claspinga hammer" (ham-
mer produced and identmied.) He ran out call
ing for help, but staggered on the sidewalk, and
had to be carried In. Witness further said that
he was 76 years of age, that defendant was al
WAYS wanting money, and was generally 'sour
cross and mOrose,' and that defendant said after
the blow. and while witness was lying on the
lounge IN the store, II will lay you out yet
The c"ross-eNamiuation Of this witness by defend
ants counsel, Nj. John Russell, was made with
the view Of showing that great p-ovocation had
been given 10 Citizens, as TO whom McChesney had
received some orders from Nh. Citizens senior,
which were the source Of irritation to his son.
Drs. McKibbin and NcGrew gave evidence as to
the wound inflicted on McChesney, the latter
describing it as a little larger than a p cent piece,
and comparing well with the hammer shown.
George GRAY, who was the first TO come to Nc
Chesney's assistance, gave evidence as to his be-
ing in a fainting condition, and as to the blood
flowing freely from the wound In his head. $.
McKeague was the only other witness for the
prosecution. he deposed that Citizens came to
the station house and gave himself up, saying he
had struck his partner with the ring he had on
his hand. Witness went 10 the store and when
he saw the wound remarked that 1t was not made
With the ring. He found the hammer produced
in court, on the shelf behind where McChesney
had been sitting. Citizens made a statement IN
his own defense, III the course of which he stated
that he struck McChesney because the latter
made use of an opprobrious epithet in respect to
a person whom he, Citizens, was about TO marry.
He denied having used the hammer to strike

The oregonian says: On account
Of high water and strong currents in
the Columbia this winter, instead of
low water as usual, the expense of

river points has been nearly double
the customary price. Tugs are en-
gagged by the hour, and they can make
very little progress against the tide.
