It will be interesting to our readers to know

and cordial reception of our Envoy is published in
to-day's issue, are a very handsome couple of Roy
al people. King Milan is q noble looking prince of
very fine personal presence, and whose portrait
recently received very strongly represents our fell
lop tOwnsman, Mr.. G. H. Glade. Her Males ty
Queen Natalie is an exceedingly beautiful lady and
her photo-portrait presents one of the most charm
ing types of royal and distinguished beauty. The
young prince, the heir apparent, about five years
of age, a noble looking boy prince stands by her
side. q
Messrs. E. o. Hall & Son, (limited) have rece iv-
ed a photograph of a new cultivator, which they
are importing for this market and which they hold
to be superior to those at present used in this
Kingdom. There are two number five plows placed
on one frame instead of the old caltivator with FIVE
small teeth, thus it makes two burrows at regular
distances apart and can accomplish twice as much
work in a day a. those of the old style, yet at the
same time it can be Drawn by one mule. Several
orders have already been given for these cul tiva- |
tors which are on board the Spartan and now daily |
expected.
In a certain boarding house a mangled youth lies
silent in his bunk. His thin parted lips are parched
with pain, his nose of the synagogue and all-agog
style, and his massive brow white, like the face of
a tombstone. Only there is no sacred to the mem
DRY on it; his only memory is not very sacred. In
the house whereat he lodged there was a large dog.
And the dog was at large. 1t howled all night, ex
cept when it was engaged killing stray fowls or Bit
ing he DOdFu0FS leSS. our nero undertook TO
shoot him. With a calm smile he raised the gun
and sighted the dog. And the dog sighted him.
There was a report and a loud yell-from the hero.
His companions bore him in; and now a mangled |
youth lies silent in his bunk. The dog is still
around.
An hotel is likely soon to be established at Kapi-
olani Park on the extensive premises belonging to
Mr.. Allen Herbert. This will supply the want so
much felt by residents il Honolulu and by tou r
lists, of q summer resort, where country air and
good bathing, combined with comfort and good
living, can be secured. The premises In question
are admirably adapted to the purpose. They are
situated near Diamond Head, a few hundred yards
from the grand stand on the park racecourse.
They comprise some eight acres or more, of
ground, with a long frontage to the sea. They are
fringed by a beautiful beach of white sand and in
front OF them lies a capital reef-lOcked haILor
which can easily be entered from the sea by boats
and by our smaller steamers. This harbor is ex-
tensive enough to allow of pleasant boating within
