Reception Of His Majesty the King at
WaiOhinu.
ADDRESS OF f. KOPKE, ESQ.

~SIRE,-The distinguished honor has been
accorded to me, in behalf of the foreign
residents of Kau, to supplement, as it were,
the words of welcome, sincere cOngratula-
tions on a safe return from extensive
travels, tender, nay filial, affections, adj
dressed to Your Majesty early this morning
by the Hon. Thomas :. Martin. Repre-
senting, as L do, so many of wealth and
social position, as we'll as those in the
humber walks of life, of diverse race and
nationality, il affords me the greatest graft
ficatiOn to assure you, most honored Sire,
that but one sentiment animates them all
in common with Hawaiians to the manner
born, on this august occasional most
heartfelt welcome to Yourself and Her
Majesty the Queen to this, one Ofthe fairest
portions of beautiful Hawaii. While abroad
YOU nave witnessed Eastern grandeur,
European stateliness, Americas solid
wealth and enterprise and L trust it may
not be deemed inappropriate to suggest the
thought that it is right here, in your own
island dominions, where one of the greatest
questions affecting the universal brother
hood of man is being solved. Right here,
! repeat, as if designed by Divine favor
under the most benign conditions, the eX-
IRENE East meets Western civilization /;
where most every race has its representa-
tive, the old antagOnisms, hatreds, and
prejudices are to be buried in everlasting
oblivion. Not the c~ostliest armies and
navies the world has yet seen, nor the most
s%tupendous and gigantic warfare of ancient
or modern times-nay, the multiplied
battles of Alexander, Caesar, or the First
Napoleon combined, can for q moment
compare in glory and sublimity with the
peaceful and humanizing efforts here
making to cement the bond of union be-
tween all races and classes of men, and
thus adding many more links to THAT
golden chain of human love, whose upper
end to highest Heaven is knit" What
higher, mightier, nobler destiny might |
invoke for a people or its beloved ruler?
in truth, Times nOblest empire is the last.
Well may we congratulate our Hawaiian
friends in having at the helm of the ship of
State a ruler in whom are so happily united
that genius and lofty craftsmanship re-
quired for so grand q mission. Be assured
that Americans, Germans, English and
French, Portuguese, Spanish and Italians,
Cinnamon, Africans, and South Sea
Islanders, unite iii the most sincere aloha
nui to Your Majesty. Long live the sue
cessor OH the Throne of the Great Kameha-

THE YEAR 1881.

THE year which closes to-day has not been
an uneyentful one for Hawaii. Although she
has not shared in the wars and rumors of
war, the political discomfort and crime, and
the disastrous storms on land and sea, which
nave been the causes of so much distress,
anxiety and loss in other countries during
1881, the occurrences, both natural social
and political of the year, form an important
chapter in the annals of our small and iso-
lated Kingdom.
The most prominent and important event,
In every sense, has been the visit which
His Majesty King KALAKAUA has paid to
various countries of the world. Leaving
here on January goth and making, during
a trip of nine months duration, the entire
circuit OF the northern hemisphere, His
Majesty has earned for himself the credita-
BILE precedence of being the first Monarch
who has ever made the tour of the world, or,
IN the words of one of the welcoming mot
toes which greeted him on his return, of
being the first liking CircumnavigatOr."
The wisdom of the step taken by His Maj
esty in setting out upon this long and i'm
portant journey at the time chosen by him,
was called in question by many, and even,
as il is understood, by his Ministers them
selves, sui We believe that there is not now
any one who does not confess that the event
has justified the determination taken by the
King, or who fails to see that, in its bearing
both on our foreign relations and on our
domestic affairs, the journey was peculiarly
we'll timed and fortunate. Nor is it doubted
in any direction that this journey of the
Kings has been n thorough success. His
Majesty's personal qualities and intellectual
ability have won for him the sincere respect
and friendship Of many distinguished and
influential p~ersonages he has received the
right hand Of fellowship from all the Sove-
reigns with whom lie has been brought in
contact, and from the heirs OF the greatest
thrones on earth he has been a distin-
guished and specially honored guest in re-
publican countries wherever he has gone
he and his Kingdom have excited immense
interest in the minds Of high and low, rulers
and people, men of capital n men of " bone
and sinew." No event that could have hap
pened. no course of policy we could pursue,
whether good or bad, no height of prosper
ity or SApth of disaster, could have served
to bring Hawaii thus prominently before
the eyes of all civilized men as has dis
Majesty's rapid and transformations journey
round the world. And this is precisely
that we needed. II T-onOlulu is ever to be-
come anything more than the village it Is
if these isles are ever to be re-peopled, and
filled with the fruits of human industry is

THE P. C. A. RETROSPECT FOR 1881.

THE PACIFIC COMMERCIAL
may indulge in a satisfactory retrospect of
the year that is closing. At the beginning
OF 1881, a. adverse sentiment prevailing
against certain alleged political views OF
the Editor-in-Chief caused a large with
drawal OF the advertising patronage Of the
ADvERTIsER-so much so, that n patron
age which had amounted to twenty-seven
columns OF paying advertisements was sud
denly cut down by Withdrawals to barely
ten columns. This was sufficient to presage
to many minds, complete ruin to this old
established enterprise but the journal had
a superior character, both at home and
abroad-so well established by its founder,
II. NJ. Whitney, Esq, in 1856; and its
present management so fully satisfied the
sensible and unprejudiced business portion
of the community, that its only object II
aim was the best welfare OF the country,
hat there has been during the year n re-
turn OF patronage to IN unprecedented
extent, so that on this last day of 1881 the
ADVERTISER appears as IN eight-page
sheet, with hiTty-one column of bonG-fde
paying Observation-Disclosures is much in
excess of its past most palmy days of adver-
Using patronage. We return thanks to
patrons for this liberal support. We shall
continue TO endeavor to deserve it more
and more by diligently procuring for
our readers early and trustworthy news /;
by discussing and supporting the best in
terests of the country by affording a fair
and open field for a variety of views By
being o~utspoken and independent and by
pursuing a course worthy of an honest and
manly journalism.

this case also we have TO be thankful that
the mischief was no worSe-that the fiery
flood stopped short in its course and spared
the town of Hilo and its beautiful harbor.
These things, and some minor disasters. and
a few hideous crimes, have been present to
mingle bitterness with the cup of our pros
perity, but the record OF the year is for all
that, one of progress, material, political.
social and religious, and We can hardly do

Our Double Sheet.

WE issue, to-day, al eight page paper.
The =. G. ADVERTISER has not since many
years attained such dimensions. Our pro-
portions are unusually enlarged by our
holiday patronage, which, however, after
the New Year, will be withdrawn and
the p. C. a. will appear in single sheet
again; yet we shall from time to time issue
a double sheet 10 our patrons and it is evil
dent that after a little while the eight pages
will become a necessity for the ADVERTISER.

A proclamation appeared in the last number
OF the Boietm do GoreTHO js Macao inviting the
MacaenSes 10 emlgrate L. Mozambique either

The conditions offered are very advantageous

gwen to each emlgraut under contract before his
departure, his passage back 10 Macao at the
expiration Of his contract. being guaranteed.
Free emiSrants viii receive Il free passage. and
they may take their families with them /. they
choose. The Lisbon Government have placed
the transport ~Irlumphante shsrtlv expected, at
the disposal of the Macao Government to con-
Vey the emlgrants TO their destination. The
action thus taken by the Lisbon Government to
better the condition Of the Macaenses will. no
doubt, commend itself TO the appreciation of all
sensible people, and We wish the Macao Govern
ment every success in their noble. humane
efforts.
THE HOngkong Daily Press, commenting
upon this emigration of people from the
ancient Portuguese entrepOt of China, says
that owing to the "%silting up" of its
harbOr, the IN of Macao has been
destroyed, and that the enforced idIeness
in which the young men of Macao nave
grown up" in consequence of destruction
of ell business is so grievous, that the
Home Government of Lisbon has resolved
to take action and to deport Portuguese
subjects from a ruined Portuguese settle

is aR opportunity for our Envoy Plenipo-
Tertiary to Portugal and we presume that
our Foreign Minister will look into the
matter, and send instructions to our Envoy
to investigate this opportunity for immi-
grafton, so that possibly we may secure a
aluable Portuguese immigration from
Macao, without any cost of passages, in
stead OF the present costly immigration
from the Azores.
