| am sorry to see so many parents
and guardians who have children en-
trusted to their care so careless and
indifferent to their trainingand moral
culture. The wisest man that we
read of tells us to train a child in the
way it should go, and in old age it
will not depart from such training.
The inspired paul says to raise your
children in the nurture and admoni-
ton Of the Lord. Parents and those
who have children entrusted to their
care occupy very high and impor-
tant position; hence the Importance
that parents should be properly edu-
Gated for the work themselves.
There are two ways to train-by
words and by example. The words
shold be of the right kind, proceeding
from heart full of love, and then a
corresponding example. 1t is not
only necessary to teach by word, but
highly necessary to demonstrate your
words by a corresponding walk. In
word, we should at all times prac-
tice what we preach.
Many parents suffer their boys to
frequent creeks to fish and hunt birds,
such things as this, and others even
worse if possible, on Sundays. Are
they not responsible in the sight OF
our creator for such a course as this

There is but little change to notice
in the produce market. In the Nash
vile and Western markets there is
slight improvement in wheat.
Corn remains same.
In dried fruit there is some inn
provement in blackberries. Peaches
and apples are unchanged without
much activity. The large supply of
old apples still in the market keeps
down prices and will until they are
disposed of. The dried peaches we
have seen are very poor quality, being
small and wormy, the halves being
little larger than quarters. 1t is not
known what they will be worth yet,
as the extent of the crop will deter
mine their value.
Eggs are in better demand and
higher. They are rather scarcer than
usual at this season.
Genseng is quoted lower in the
Western markets.
Feathers are in rather better de-
mand.
Green apples have hardly begun to
move, there being but little demand
South yet. We notice some small
shipments have been made.
Provisions are unchanged.

leaving with us, Isham Neal, Esq,

We travelled on in peace until about
O'Clock, a. M, at which time our
old friend, A. Randolph, being lit
tie wearied of being cOoped up so
long, stepped off on the ground to get

are splendid grazing tracts, and it is
on these extensive table lands that
stock Of all kinds, cattle as well as
horses, can be, and to some degree
now are, raised with profit and
pleasure.
There is ne good reason why the
Hawaiian Islands should not boast of
stock farms from which the Pacific
slope could be supplied with high
grade animals, and we are of the
opinion that such farms will eventu-
ally be located on Hawaii and Maui.
The setting apart of One Of the
annual holidays that we enjoy here
to racing is, we think, good thing.
It may be that there are features con-
nected with the race-course here, as
we'll as elsewhere, that are objection
able. 1t may be that the opportunity
offered to win or lose money there is
greater than elsewhere but we can
congratulate ourselves that the man
agement of our racing festivals is in
the hands of gentlemen who do not
permit anything like the swindling
schemes that elsewhere disgrace race
courses, to be carried out here.
The owners of the horses them
selves are men whom We all know as
ardent lovers of those noble animals /;
men who have carefully bred the
horses they allow to run, and who
contest the races with their horses
more for the purpose of testing the
superiority of the breeds they foster
than for the winning of a "purse :"
or cup
There are none of the petty gam
bling adjuncts to our race track at
Kapiolani Park that are to be found
elsewhere. Our people assemble to
witness fair and honest contests
between horses, and one and all
must feel that the sight of splendidiy
groomed, high mettled animals speed
ing around the track, displaying their
beautiful proportions and magnificent
training, is as harmless to the spec
tator as any exhibition of muscular
strength and activity can be.
1t is a good thing to join in the
mingling cheers with which the win
ming horse is greeted as he flashes
past the judges stand. The animal
feels the applause in every nerve and
fiber of his elegant frame, and is
amply repaid for the effort he has
made to please his lord and master
man, and those who have carefully
trained the horses fer the supreme
effort they have made, have the salts
faction of knowing that, winner or
loser, their horses are better animals
than they would have been if not
prepared for the struggle, and that
the good that is in them will show
itself in their descendants for all time
to come

The London Morning Post" of
May 18th has an editorial upon the
death of the late Queen Dowager
Emma, in which mention is made OF
the late Queens failure ION two sue
cessive occasions to obtain the throne
vacated by the death of her husband,
Kamehameha W" and gives as an
important reason for such failure "the
strong prejudices which the Hawai-
ians-in common, it must be con-
fessed, with most nations, whether
civilized or not-entertain for certain
rules of descent which they reckon,
contrary to our custom, from the
maternal side. Queen Emma was
partly American, and while no doubt
she inherited many advantages Of a
personal character from that fact, it
certainly initiated against her social
position ia the eyes of the islanders"
Such is the opinion of the Post"
and such is the measure of accuracy
with which the personality of histor-
ical individuals a little outside the
circle of those who control European
destinies is described.

WEDNESDAY June 10th
THE Ell EvENTH Of JUNE.


Tomorrow, the lit of June, is one
of the days set apart by the Hawaiian
Government as a national holiday, in
eommemoration of the birthday of
Kan1ehameha I. Founded originally
by Kamehameha V, that monarch
selected this particular day as being
the time of the year when holidays
are infrequent. His own birthday
fell on the 18th of December, and,
during his lifetime, was duly cele-
brated. Kamehameha ", like all the
kings who have sat upon the throne
of the Hawaiian Kingdom, was fond
ofhorses, and when, in 1872, the 18th
fof June was first proclaimed as pub
I'D holiday the day was celebrated
~ races, which took place on the
kulaokahua plains, at that time bare
of trees and unfenced.
The day was a fine one, and at least
ten thousand people assembled to wit
ness the races, which were spiritedly
contested. All the horses entered for
that days sport were of Hawaiian
stock, with the exception of two trot
ters, and glance at the time made
shows that it was good.
Since that period the quality of the
horse stock in the Kingdom has
steadily advanced, until tO-moFrow's
sports will bring out a display of
horse flesh of which any country
might be proud. Nor will the display
of good stock be confined solely to
the race track. There are many
horses now only driven before family
carriages, or ridden by gentlemen for
exercise and recreation, which have
fair lineage, and are good specimens
of the equine race.
This country is well adapted, by
its conditions of soil and climate, to
the raising Of horse stock. We have
