The schooner Leah arrived yes
terday, nine days from Hanalei,
Kauai. The captain reports very
rough weather and an accident that
befell them which might have re-
suited in the death of all hands.
On the fourth day out from Hanalci
II heavy sea came over the vessels
side and carried away all the water
casks, and the sailors were almost
entirely without water for five days.
They managed to catch little rain

A CHINAMAN, animated excess
sively with samshoo" or gin,
raised great disturbance in the
neighborhood of a Chinese secret
society rendezvous on King street,

row, that broke out on to the street
to the serious Inconvenience of the
public. The noisy fellow was at
length subdued, together with the
turbulent spirits who had joined in
the riot, by other Mongolians who
probably feared the peaceful repu-
tation of their nationality was being
jeopardized by the disturbers.
