and be made serviceable again. We congratulate
Lidgate, in that his loss was no greater.
MEssRs. ]. E. WILLIAMS d Co., the well-known
photographers have gotten up and had printed a
very handsome card comprising two fine photo
graphs of island scenery, surrounded by some
cards of leading firms in Honolulu. These
cards being framed and glazed are an ornament to
any counting room, and we look to see them
eagerly sought after. The same energy that origin
ated .he happy thought OF the Tourists Guide
that handy little vest pocket pamphlet, has shown
itself in the production of this card, and in another
way in the production of large life-size portraits of
the Royal family, and high chiefs of these islands.
the first time We have seen q neatly good
portrait of H.R.H. Victoria. There are others on
exhibition of great interest. In fact, Mr.. Williams
having made Island people and scenery a study,
has now for sale the finest series of pictures that it
has been our privilege to see gathered together here.
THE old adage, Birds of a feather flock to-

ng offensive is a matter on which opinions differ.
Had the address been confined to America and
Americans, instead of talking at His Majesty, it
would have been appropriate to the occasion. The
choolmaster finds nothing to carp at in the Rev.
rend gentleman's sermon" because it contained
nsinuations, considering the King was present, that
have been better left unsaid. 1t is unbe-
,oming, to say the least, of oneiwho draws his sal
nv from the Government every month, as the |
does, to endorse utterances from the
'uIpit that have already met with such universal
isfavor.
