two children, will embark on the S.
S. Alameda, due on Saturday next
from the Colonies, for a sojourn OF six
or eight months among friends in the
| United States. Much as they will be
| missed from our insular society, no
one will grudge Mr.. Adams this re-
| spite from very active business, or fail
to wish him and his accomplished
better half a pleasant journey both
ways, with the fullest enjoyment of
their holiday. During the absence of
the head of the firm the junior part
ner, Mr.. Morgan, will conduct the
business of E. p. Adams e. Co.
The Elsinore will take about one
hundred return South Sea Islands
contract laborers this week, and al
though there are but four islands to
be called at, yet these people have to
be landed in lots, on several parts of
each island, because, says Captain
jerks, if they are put ashore at the
wrong place they will be butchered.
The Elsinore will sail from the South
Sea Islands to Newcastle, N. s. W.,
to load coal for this port. The cap
tain says that man with u gripsack
went on board the Elsinore the other
day, who, in reply TO question
stated his GRAND to be the instruction
of untutored minds in religious
things. The captain offered to give
him comfortable passage to one of
the dark islands of the South, where
he would have abundant raw material
for his enterprise. The offer was,
however, declined, as the good in
tentions of the visitor apparently
were limited to seafaring men of his
own speech. All the same, the cap
tain's willingness to take preacher
to the heather is worthy of honor
able mention.
