THE KINGS TOUR AROUND
THE WORLD. "

His Majesty had a pleasant and interest
ing trip per "City OF Sydney" The
company on board was highly scientific.
Professsr Proctor discoursed to the King
and other fellow passengers upon "Star
depths" which have systems "inhabited
by beings of greater Importance than any
that can be developed around our sun :" (of
which beings we would like to get an
lnkling, as to size and capacity and he
gave ample assurances, that many remark
able planetary conjunctions of this i'll
omened year, cannot have any appreciable
terrestrial influence; which was consoling
to SANDER on board, satisfying their
minds that they would find their fast
anchored Archipelago on their return just
where they left it. And there was another
scientist on board, Professor w. l.. Carpen-
ter, who enlightened the royal party and
other fellow travellers, with his views and
experiences in relation to sea depths and
temperatures of the ocean; i'm which he
explained the laws affecting Gulf streams
and ocean currents, and all the natural
phenomena of our quasi aqueous globe. IIe
presented highly. interesting illustrations
Of the iunfsorial life, which he collected
from the ooZe of the oceans bed at depths
of three, four and five miles, when he
sailed with our friend Sir Wyville ThOmp-
son on board the Challenger. He had some
of our globigerinae to show, those infinitesi-
NAL crustaceae which a pin point may
cover, and are hardly visible to the naked
eye yet reveal to the microscope a shelly
buckler upon which may be counted over
eight hundred bosses each covered with "a
multitude of figures and corrugations.
After one scientist had shown His Majesty
remote suns so many hundreds of million
miles farther away from us than our own
sun, and so many thousands of millions of
miles bigger than our own globe, it was
well that there was another scientist to
bring the King back to the earth, and
mentally %plunging with him into the
depths, could there reveal the infinitely
SMALL and bring the royal mind to n fine
point.
To relieve this heavy stain of science, a
vocalist on board g. Darrell, Esq.,) contri-
buted some strains of song of love and war
for the entertainment of his fellow passen-
gers. And then comes the genial, social
and able Captain Dearborn, to add an in
spring word, and a cheering assurance, to
make the King and all his cabin happy.
We are assured by several friends on
board during the trip, the voyage in respect
to weather, and all the circumstance on
board was an exceedingly pleasant one.
The King enjoyed himself in his usual
cheerful and dignified way, and seems to
have won only golden opinions from all his
fellow travellers.
On the morning of Thursday the 22d
January, the City of Sydney steamed away
from Honolulu with the royal party and
on the afternoon of Saturday the 29th, she
steamed into the harbor within the Golden
Gate. And now we will quote from the
chronicles of San Francisco and Sacra-
mento, other particulars attending the
Kings tour round the world.

VISIT TO III
t~SacrG1CeHtO Bee.l
KING KALAKAUA IN THE CAPITAL CITY-HE VISITS
THE LEGISLATURE. AND TAKES IN SEVERAL OTHER
sIGHTs-THE GOVERNOR CHAPERoNs HIM ABOUT
THE CITY-HIs PROPOSED TRIP AROUND THE
WORLD.

By yesterday afternoons train from the Bay
arrived King Kalakaua, of the Sandwich Islands,
attended by several of his Ministers, bent on seeing
such sights as California has TO offer during one OF
her {" dry seas ons, before starting on his proposed
trip to some of the less important countries of the
Old World.
Quite a large crowd had collected at the depot to
see this genuine, living representative of modern
monarchy. who proved to be rather portly and
generally fine looking man of middle age, dressed in
plain citizens garb, rather dark-skinned. and sport
ing a pretty fair set Of side whiskers. His counte-
nance bore a genial expression, and the impression
that one could get from a brief glance at the royal
gentleman would be decidedly a favorable one.
TAKING IN THE TOWN.
The royal party were accompanied from San
Francisco by Hon. Claus Spreckles and Mr.. Schussler,
the well-known civil engineer. Carriages were in
waiting for them. to which they were promptly con-
Quoted aud driven rapidly to the Capitol, where an
informal visit was paid to His Excellency Governor
Perkins, and a brief time was spent in pleasant con-
versation. Apartments had been secured for the
party at the Arcade Hotel. to which they repaired
ct the conclusion of their visit to the Governor, the
accompanying them, the latter having accepted an
invitation from his Majesty to dine with him. An
elegant dinner was partaken of, after which the
King expressed a desire 10 visit a theatre, and 1t was
accordingly arranged that the party should drop in
at the Capital Varieties the only place of amusement
now omen in this city, where three private boxes
were placed at their disposal. During the evening
several calls were made upon prominent citizens, his
Majesty retiring a little before midnight.
To-day the party again visited the State Capitol,
and spent considerable time on the floor of each
House, in the proceedings of which they seemed to
take much interest.
Count Ropert, the Kings personal attendant. is of
French nativity, and has served in the same capacity
to the last four kings, running through a space of
fifteen years.
King Kalakaua is travelling i~ncognitO, his trip
having no official siguihc ,nce and being merely for
the purposes of observation and pleasure. For this
reason he is addressed as Prince by his travelling
ccmnanions.

Of the Kings main objects in this journey is to
strengthen the tie which already binds his people
commercially with the United States, and to insure
renewal of the reciprocity treaty. He had a hand in
negotiation ofthat treaty, and notwithstanding all

ties there is no event of his reign in which he takes
greater pride than in that negotiation, and nothing
By puts a higher valus upon. as making for his
welfare, than the treaty itself.
