Hcitv. II this item Is most absolutely neces
sarv. the House should have some knowI

/ Sir. Dole said the Board sent in a repor
/ last sessi II which covered twenty-s1
/ pages Quoting from that report, it showed
the object was TO obtain the genealcgy Of
Hawaiian Chiefs. u collect all unpublished
Hawaiian history and meleS, the object OF
the latter, and record all taboo customs OF
the old Chiefs. That accomplished, il would
present rather an interesting work if com
piled. Whether it would be worth be-
tween six and seven thousand dollars was
another question. There is really a mag
nifcent work laid out for the Board. Ii
the Board is coming in with report the
House would like 10 see some or the ad-
vance sheets. Have they made no pro
gresS and dare not report, or has progress
been made and they are ashamed To let II
be known? 1t is reasonable 10 ask the
Board whether any steps had been taken
as laid out. Have they discovered single
Hawaiian Chief yet? He felt that he
could give the Board 800 for every Ha-
waiian Chief certified to. 1t IS reason
able for the House TO ask that this resolu-
ton be not passed until the report comes
in They were making history in the
House all the time, as these matters go out
side. II the House voted the amount with
out information it would be public steal.

News from the south Seas.

Capt. Lowell, of the Hawaiian tern Ke Au Hou,
writes III private letter by the schooner Jennie
Walker, dated Jaluit, Dec. 10th: 1.-The German
Government have duly proclaimed their protec-
torate over the Marshall and Caroline groups, and
have first start issued bulletins to say that
they will acknowledge land sales made before third
parties before the date of their assuming the pro-
tectorate, but they will not allow any purchase of
land TO be made until further notice, and it seems
to me as though that was an attempt to shut out
other than the German firms from doing business
here. Speaking to the German Consul yesterday
about 1t, he told me that eventually We should be
allowed to purchase little land, sufficient for q
station; but not at present, until they had made
things n little bit straight. There is, hear, a
governor or commissioner appointed, who is nov
on his way out from Germany, and is supposed to
arrive here next month or thefeabouts How they
intend TO the islands THAT is their polioyl is
not declared yet, but have notion that Ameri-
can or English goods will have big impoFs duty
put on them at once, as TO make an outlet for
things are running just the same as ever. pending
the arrival of the said commissioner. Whatever
their policy may be, feel assured they will try to
clod any American and English imports. certain.

now the brlgantine Ransom.
In a letter dated Majuro, Marshall Island, Aug.
10th, Captain Lowell gives VARIOUS shipping items
of interest. The VIM. II. Stevens, Cravford's, Of
San Francisco, was over four months from Legiep

Tho steamship Rivalry.

The purser of the australia, which arrived here
from Sydney on Wednesday afternoon, explains
the rivalry between the Pearce and Spreckels lines
of steamers. His statement Is IN substance this:
The Spreckels line, he says, has no subsidy of
$4,000 from the New South Wales and New Tea
aud Governments, but the Uuion line was to re-
ceive 10000 from the latter and 10000 from the
former Government. The Sydney people, the
purser says, we're dissatisfied when they learned
that the Union had made a contract with the
Spreckes line involving transfer at Honolulu.
He claims that the Pearce line can make better
time, not having TO put IN to Honolulu, than the
Spreckels steamers, and that the mail can be car
RED from Sydney TO London in thirty-five days,
five days quicker than by the Suez Canal route.
John d. Spreckels says the purser's story is cor
rect IN part but that there is no truth IN the state
ment that his firm only SUBJ contractors from
the Union Company. New Zealand will be the
loser if New South Wales does not subscribe its
El0,OO9, for that Government guaranteed a sub
sidy of 10000, expecting New South Wales to
contribute one third, or 10000 of the subsidy.
The Spreckels line is quite Indifferent to how
the amount of the subsidy will be raised. Mr..
Spreckels doubts if New South Wales would be
willing to pay the Pearce line more than double
what it would the Spreckels Company for the
same service. He says there is no money in it for
his firm, with the subsidy, and is at loss to
know why Pearce should be SO anxious to run his
steamers to Australia.
The steamer Australia, which will sail Dec. 31st
will carry mails to Honolulu, New Zealand and
Sydney. The vessel is owned by Pierce & Sons
OF GlaSgOW, ana the racine mall company, as
agent for the owners, made a tender to carry the
mails stated The offer was accepted by the
Government. This does not interfere with the
contract with the Union Line, as the Government
has the right TO send mail whenever the opport-
unity to such places as the Feel ice islands,
Alaska, etc. The Union Line only has con-
tract for the through British mail.
The vessel taking the mail without a contract
gets sea postage, or SIX cents letter. The Aus
tralia will not carry any mail to the Samoan is
lands, and the mail to New Zealand will go by way
of Sy dney. The Government will send mail on
the Australia. because some days will be gained
before the Union Line steamer with will sail on
January 10th, will reach its destination.
The following letter has been received by Post
master Backus with relation to Australian mails:
