Government Relief Fund.

The drain upon the Government relief
fund has stopped very considerably. Mr.
Frank H. Austin, Special Agent in charge
of the relief work, reports that for the past
three or four days the number regularly
fed at the Immigration Depot had de-
creased to about 45; and that after to-day
only six or seven natives, being old people
and children, will be continued ON the free
ration list. Ali the other natives will take
care of themselves. The relief of Chinese
now mainly consists III the issue of orders for
clothing, About 800 suits of clothing have
been bestowed upon sufferers by the fire, of
whom the Chinese numbered, say 800.
Clothing continues to be issued to the de-
serving and destitute, but as there is great
scarcity of labor on the other islands there
is no reason why the Government should
continue helping those who can help them
selves. Mr.. Austin has been successful in
preventing frauds being perpetFated
against the public bounty.

The CampobelIO Concerts.

The matinee performance on Saturday
afternoon was not so well patronized as it
deserved to be. A charming programme
had been prepared, which was rendered
exclusively by Miss Spring and the three
Misses Joran. The wonderful playing of
the young ladies was highly appreciated by
the audience, and Miss Springs vocal
numbers were we'll received.
In the evening the first part of the pro-
gramme consisted of a chamber concert by
the Misses Joran. The audience was fair
one and very enthusiastic. His Majesty
the King, Her Royal Highness Princess
Liliuokalani, His Excellency Governor j.
o. Dominis, attended by Col. c. H. Judd,
Chamberlain, were present in the Royal
box
The programme was opened by the
Misses Lulu and Pauline Joran who played
a duo for two pianos in the most brilliant
manner.
A violin solo by Miss Pauline followed
The selection demanded extraordinary
feats of execution, but the young player
was equal to them. Runs were made with
marvellous clearness and rapidity. Miss
Pauline has the dignity, the breadth and
the compOsure of a maestro in her per-
Torrance. She was most enthusiastically
recalled and played, to the delight of the
audience, Yankee Doodle" with varia-
tions,
The next number was a piano solo,
variations on a German air, by Chopin.
played by little Elise Joran. 1t is a long
time since our musical circles here have
been excited to such lively degree as by
the phenomenal playing of this child
Though not able to reach the pedals, she
embellishes her music with the most per-
feet expression, and every note rings out
in the cleaFest manner. In playing the
theme she showed great skill. The audi
enoe insisted on an encore, and Elise, in
response, played a short but brilliant solo.
Miss Pauline Joran gave a defamation,
g The Heather Boy" from the German of
Helbel, with piano accompaniment, by
Robert Schumann. This style of perform
ance is entirely new here, but it was well
received, the young lady showing much
talent in her reciting.
Miss Lulu JOran played Listzs Rhapsodie
No. 10 in the most brilliant manner, PROV
ing herself a most complete master of the
instrument.
The first part concluded with trio for
two pianos and violin, which was re-
demanded
The performance concluded with operate
selections from Donizetti's Don Pas
quale,' in costume, by Miss Spring, Signors
Campobello and Lencioni, to the great de-
light and satisfaction of the audience
throughout.

THE LEGISLATURE.

The Legislative Assembly organized
on Saturday, after some little difference
of opinion among members upon points
of detail. Hon. J s. Walker was elected
President, his competitor being Hon. C.
r. Bishop; and Mr.. f. A. Pierce was
elected Secretary over Mr.. J. +. Wise
man, the rival candidate. Both appoint
ments meet with general approval. The
Hon. Mr.. Walker has had large parlia-
mentary experience and will doubtless
make an admirable presiding officer;
and Mr. Pierce is certain to give salts
faction, he having discharged the inn
portant duties OF Secretary TO the late
Legislature with great acceptance. The
office OF Vice President of the Assembly
has been left open until to-day, when it
is morally certain that the Hon. l..
Aholo will be elected to that Office.
The parliamentary business transacted
on Saturday was OF a purely formal
character. \ committee having been
appointed to prepare an address in reply
to the speech from the throne, we may
anticipate debate of more or less inter
est to-day, when the address is brought
up and its adoption moved. Usually the
address in reply is an echo of the speech,
and we see no reason for anticipating
any departure from parliamentary Gus
tom in this case. Sometimes it hap
pens, however, that an amendment to
the address is moved, in which case it is
accepted as vote of want OF confidence
if supported by the Opposition; but
occasionally this parliamentary form is
taken advantage OF by private members
TO bring some special grievance promin-
emily before the country. 1t is of course
open to His Majesty's Opposition to
choose either course, but it is probable
that its Legislative wing will content
itself with a running fire of criticism.
We really do not see what the Opposition
has got to complain of, or find fault with,
in the Kings speech; and indeed it
would be going back upon their own re-
cord as party were the Opposition memi
bers to traverse any paragraph in it.

,Death or Mr.. ]. A. KamauOhn.

Ed. p. G.. ADvERTIsER-Sir: l should
not like the premature death OF so fine
and promising young Hawaiian subject
to pass without few words from my
self, who have acted in loco PARENTS and
guardian to Mr. Kamauoha during his
residence In England for three years and
a half Gentle, retiring, singularly reti-
cent about himself, the very quietude
of his nature and the purity Of his life
endeared him to those with whom he
came in contact and when, last Wednes-
day, we laid him in his grave, in the
beautiful cemetery of Torquay, Devon
shire, l saw tears streaming from the
eyes OF some who could only have known
him a few weeks, but who had been won
to admire him for his patient submission
and unselfshness. His end fastened on
rapidly after he had taken to his bed.
The consumption of the lungs following
on pleurisy, was attended with fever
pulse and breathing, and with continued
sleeplessness; and he drew his last breath
on Friday, the 26th of March. All that
medical science and aid could do he re-
eeived; and he had the most tender and
constant attention from a gentleman
and two ladies residing in the same
boarding house, (PetwOrth). The fever
and insomnia required the constant at
tendance OF two qualified nurses also.
His loss is deeply felt by myself and
my family, with whom he was in the
most friendly intercourse. A clergyman
in the country, with whom he had spent
a summer holiday, writes to me: tx. had
endeared himself to us in way that,
perhaps, we did not fully realize till we
heard the sad news. His unselfshness,
perfect good temper, gentleness, helpful
ness, and kindness of heart won the af-
fectionate esteem OF us all, as well as of
many of our friends here. l do not know
that have ever taken so much to alig
one as 1 did to K, on so short an ac-
abundance. l feel as il / had lost
friend. Pray allow me to express my
sympathy for you in what must be
great grief, that 80 promising life should
come to so sad an ending"
Although the poets words are very APP
posite,
..By foreign hands his dying eyes We're closed
BY foreign hands his decent limbs composed,
BY foreign hands his humble grave adorned
BY strangers honored, and by strangers mourned"
1t must be borne in mind that he had
won love and respect from those he lived
among and those who so tenderly minis
tered to him to the last
Mr.. Kamauoha had never perfectly ac-
auired the English idiom SO as to speak
and write it with great fluency; but iG
many respects he differed little from an
Englishman. / am, sir, yours faithfully, /
