Royal Highness was entertained by Mr.. J.

spent h enight at DR.. Trusseau's, al Kukui-
haele. On the Thursday morning before
leaving for Waimea, the Princess addressed
a large assemblage of natives in the church
at hukuihaele. A peep at the Waipio
Valley was taken, which made the journey
rather lengthy, and the party reached Wal
mea thoroughly tired out. A large number
OF natives paid their respects to the Princess
on the Friday morning, and the afternoon
was devoted TO a dreary ride through the
rain to Kawaihae. The steamer did not
leave there till about s o'clock the follow

the weather, the evening appears TO have
been passed very gaily. The passage from
kawaihae to Honolulu occupied only
twenty hours, and was passed without adj

Row ~ A CABINET SHOP.
The King-street man gave me the following
particulars about a row in IA Cabinet shop -
Three fellowship, Hal, and Jack-that have
been in the trade some time, went cahoots in q
Cabinet shop. Bill went in as boss pard, some
what against the grain Of Hal, who has q banker
to swagger foremost but his landlord, who had
something to say in the natter would have IL
that way.
Well, they got along, $3.50. Bill works the
foreign timber, Hal the domestic, and Jack looks
after the cash. Now, it so happened that Jack
wanted a fellow to do some chores in his part OF
the shop, And he picks up a boy, always
bruising around town, called Wat, whom he
thinks the very chap Tor the job.
Hal hears Of this. walks mp 10 Jack, and says
TIL scamp has been making faces at me in
the street and if you give him a job, / rolls
down my sleeves. vamoses the ranch, and slams
to the door,
" Wei, vamose, and be - blessed, = says
Jack. "What can this chap have to do with
your end Of the shop and besides, he's always
around, and will smash something If we don't
give him a job"
Bill did not say much, but chewed his quid
of molten globe straight cut, and did his share
Of the thinking. But by and by he quietly re-
marked, well, if you are going to split ON this,
we had better all vamose. and smash the She
bang"
BY and by, the Landlord, who was interest
ed, as [ have said, heard Of this, and gave the
pards to understand that Jack had a perfect right
TO choose the chore boy he wanted, and II Hal.
did not like it, he had only 10 lump it.
And it seemed likely that he was going 10
lump it in a way that did not suit him; when
Wat unexpectedly showed his shuckle head in at
at the shop door, splitting out thusly:
Say, fellows! I wouldn't give a row Of pins
for any job in yonr slop shop. Your work won't
stick you've got no glue that's worth a taro top,
and 7 was Just the boy to look after your glue
pot. But I've got all the work I want as 'devil'
of the sockdologer and look out, by and by.
if I don't give some Of you fellows Ats" And
the youth departed, after a slight exhibition OF
his tongue and his teeth, and a gyratory motion
of his right palm, with his thumb pivoted ON the
point of his nose, singing as he went:

SPECIAL NOTICES.

The opening Of a new store in a country district, is sn
event Of the first Importance TO all surrounding inhabi-
tauts. It not only means increased facility for obtaining
sl they want. but il always results in reductions in the
cost Of goods 10 the purchaser. MI. F. DA. Marquee
has in this way conferred a benefit upon the district for
which Honuapo is the port and centre Of business, by
opening there a general store for provisions, dry goods,
hardware. patent medicines, etc. Mr.. Marquee will also

4 session of the Intermediary Court, for
the Island of Oahu was held on Thursday last,
Mr.. Justice Judd presiding. The calendar COM
prised six appeals from the decisions of Police
Justices. Three of these were against penalties
inflicted on Cinnamon for having more than ten
cases of kerosene on their premises; Mr.. Hatch
appearing for the defendants. In Rex VS.. Ahlo
the appeal was withdrawn. c. Mornings case
was heard. The evidence for the prosecution
was that twelve cases of kerosene were found in
a stable on his premises. On the other hand
Monting affirmed that the number was only elev-
Ell and that one of these belonged to another
person. to whom he had sold it previous to get
ting in the other ten, but who had neglected to
take it away. As the law defines the legal guam
tity TO be stored in one place to be ten cases,
without reference TO differences of ownership,
judgement was given against Monting and he
was fined $50 and costs. The appeal in Rex.
vs.. Hoo San was then withdrawn. The other
case coming up from the Honolulu Police Court
was that of J. w. Pakiko, VS.. c. Clarke and Geo.
Robertson. The plaintiff 5 vehicle was damaged
by coming in contact with a dray of defendants
whose driver had turned the corner near the Gus
tom House suddenly and carelessly. The Magis-
trate held that there was contributory negligence
on the part of Pakiko and he appealed against
the decision. The appeal was successful, judg-
ment being given for the plaintiff for S27 DANA
ges. An appeal from the Eva District Court in
the case A. Pedro vs.. hun Yum Eau, a trespass
case, was continued to the September term day.
In the case r. Halstead vs.. Paulo for DESERVING
bound service, an appeal from the Waialua court,
it was arranged that briefs should be submitted
by the parties. This concluded the business.

q When the Honolulu Fire Department
was constituted in its present form, a division of
the city into four fre-wards was made. That
was a great many years ago, and Honolulu has
grown in the meantime so much, that the
arrangement is no longer suitable. A new
division has accordingly been made, on a plan
sketched by Mr.. Chas. T. Gulick, which met
with the unanimous approval of the officers of
the Department. The Surveyor-General being
applied TO for a map of the city, in order that
the Fire Department might have one litho-
graphed from it, has caused a large map to be
compiled, showing the whole of the town and its
neighborhood. The area included in the map
is all within a circle of a mile and a half radius,
the Bell Tower in Union street, being taken as
the centre. This is the first complete and
correct map of Honolulu that has ever been
compiled, and the public will be glad to learn
that the Fire Department intend to have it
Autographed at once, so as to be able to supply
copies of it to all who want them, at a very
moderate price. The map will show the new
ire-wards and each ward viii be distinctly
colored so that its extent and boundaries may
be recognized at a glance. Meanwhile the list
of the wards, and of their boundaries, given
below, will prove useful until the maps are
O~htainable.

Mr.. GEORGE c. SMITH principal Of the

pupils under his charge, over 600 in number,

scholars in the ,rooua on one floor of the

A California MIRAGE.

A correspondent of The Santa Bar
bara (Cal.) Press, under date of Feb. l,
thus describes mirage seen at that
place: whoever chanced to be near
the old mission last evening between
4 and 5 o'clock, saw, looking seaward,
an unusual sight-a mirage of the
long wharf and the three-masted
schooner lying alongside-not dim
and indistinct, but as plainly sill
houetted against the evening sky as
the hills or the islands. The tops and
base of the mountains were hidden in
4 mist-a sort of evanescent fog,
through which the outlines of the
hills were di1nly seen. Glancing to-
ward the ocean, the long wharf seemed
actually suspended in the air, and
close above it the outlines of the ship
lying alongside, with the masts par
ticularly we'll defined. I am snre that
no observer standing on the Calabrian
shore and looking westward upon the
Strait of Messina (where the most re-
markable mirages are witnessed) ever
beheld one surprising this. The hori-
zon was much depressed, the wharf
enlarged and duplicated, with the sea-
ward end much elevated, and the
figure Of the ship, also much enlarged,
hanging, as in mid-air, above it, while
the sky surrounded these objects with
a yellowish color. My friend and /
could hardly believe our ewes, and I
proposed to drive to the beach to see
il there really was any three.masted
vessel lying alongside the wharf. We
found all just as we had seen it in
the air.
