Evenings at Home.

The long evenings, which follow the
short days. are made in some families
the happiest of all happy times. The
cares of the day are ended: the mothers
resting time has come; the father has
come; the father has dropped all sorts
of business worries aud perplexities, and
the whole family throw themselves with
zest into the innocent pleasures of tho
home circle.
1t Is well for the women OF the house.
hold to remember that the pleasant
evenings st home are strong antidotes
to the practice of looking for en- ,,oy-

they who find in the home circle the
diversion they need.
A lively game, an interesting book
read aloud. or, in musical families, a
new sony to DO practiced. will furnish
pastimc that will make an evening pass
pleasantly.
A little forethought during the day. a
little pulling of wires that need not APP
pear, will make the whole thing easy
and different ways and means may be
provided for making the evening hours
pass pleasantly. and the time to be look

We visited once in large family
where it was the duty Of each sister. in

be the most enjoyable. The brothers en-
tered fully into the spirit of the simple
home entertainments, and were as 10th
to be obliged to spend an evening away
from home as their sisters and parents
were to have them absent. Every one
spoke of this family as an uncommonly
united one, for each and every member
showed such strong attachment for
tho home to which each ono contributed

Simpson goes to England, he will at
tempt to deny the authority Of this
part Of the documents, but, without
the least shadow Of reason.
He will, probably, deny the facts
which have stated in this letter. and
will finch at nothing to gain his
points. What those points may prove to
be it is impossible to know before hand,
but, there is reason to fear that one so
gifted and plausible may undo all that
can be done by the government for
their defence.
The facts which have stated in this
letter are the truth will maintain
that, to my dying day, and no fear or
favor, will induce me to vary in any
material circumstance. You must know
that most Of these things transpired at
private interviews, under injunctions
Of secrecy; and have not felt myself
at liberty to publish them, or state them,
anywhere, but in this letter. To you,
who have right to know our cause;
make known all The witnesses, are,
the king, Auhea, Kekuanaoa, John
Young, Doctor Rookie, Lord George
Paulet, Alexander Simpson and myself
other collateral witnesses may be found
d am pleased, to find that all the
complaints of British subjects are
quashed, since the British Government
have an interest in the case. The laws,

favor, and eve have prospect of quiet
for a season. His Majesty Kamehame-

you, his ministers, to make every exer-

have suitable investigation by proper
persons, into his conduct, and the
conduct of his government and he will
abide by their decision. He desires the
peaceful intervention, of France and
the United States, for the furtherance
Of this object, and to carry out the plan
formed, previous to your departure.
But, if that cannot be he commands
you, to secure for himself and for his
chiefs, the greatest possible privileges,
immunities and rights, and for his people
the freedom and privileges to which
philanthropy would raise them; and to
which they are fast rising by the in
huence Of Christianity and civilization.

your management and discretion.
