TwO-new photograph galleries have been opened.
ami two new BARRIERS shops are already stlrted,
and one is getting ready To 20 INTO business. Now
q the only the need u a meat market. There Is
only one business street in the tOwn-that Il
Market-street. In that street there are two
butchers sbOTs. two Chinese pork shops. a fish
market. which. ON Saturday, you can scarcely get
past. The smell Of the street IL very Offensive
between the smell OF feb. and beef, and 80 many
Chinese eating-hOuses. Now, there l. plenty Of
land at the head Of YineyaTd-street which could
be rented at n low figure for such a purpose.
They have got n new market at Lahaina | don't

there was money appropriated Tor this purpose

so we will not complain. Muddy roads make Us

We note that upon the return Of our MD.
from the Coast, both he and his popular partner
ignored saddle horses. and now perambulate the
town in a new and stylish vehicle. We like 10

Quite an accident occurred at Kinds mill the
first Of the week. \ native. while playing with
q pistol, accidentally discharged Il; the ball
passed through the left arm. and buried itself IN
the breast Of his wife. Doctors Hagan and
Thompson extricated tie ball, and sine il out of
danger, though the escape from u mortal wound
was n narrow one.
All the mills are grinding. but we learn that
the juice stands very low, owing probably to wet
weather. All the mills are more than full OF
sugar, awaiting shipment, but detained On ac-
count Of rough weather. Another trouble that
the railroad will put an end to.
We notice, on looking over the district, that
the Portuguese, "a fast as their time Of shipment
expires. take up small plots Of land, and make
them blossom like the rose TINS class Of people
will do more towards repOpulating and enTiching
the country than ten times the number Of China
men.
Election excitement runs high, but. as no
foreigner prOpO-cs To run, il makes but little
difference which one Of the candidates are elected.
as all the principal ones are Of the best class Of
natives IL seems. however, as though the money
interest Of this district ought to have energy
enough 10 see TO il, that the district Is suitably
represented-but sull we sleep. Mr.. Kinds, DIR.
Wight, Mr.. Holmes, Mr.. Woods, and DR.
Thompson have been spoken Of. and either Of
them would do the district the honor but SELL
interests are stronger than public duties, so they
refused TO become candidates Too bad.
