1t is reported of this great Aneri-
can lawyer, that while riding on
horseback, a friend standing on the
street called him up to the curb
stone, and asked him short legal
question, which O'Connor readily
answered, and after his return to his
office, he sent a fee bill to that
friend for that opinion. The friend
hesitated and said, sit was q mere
horseback opinion. O'Connor said,
sit was sound nevertheless, and
he could not see. why sound horse
back opinion should not be paid for,
as well as any other sound opinion. I"
He made the man pay.

FIRES.

At about a'clock Saturday after
noon the house owned by Mrs. Holt
on Fort street, just below School
street, and occupied by Mr.. Slessin-
ger, took fire. The fire companies
responded promptly to the alarm,
and several good streams of water
were playing on to the burning
house in a few minutes. The attic
and roof of the dwelling, were des-
stroyed by the flames, while the in
terror of the house was only scorch-
ed. The furniture, which was pretty
much saved, was insured for S. 900.
The house was also insured and will
probably be rebuilt by the insur-
ance company.
Shortly after 3 o'clock this morn
ming the residence of Manuel +. Sill
va, Nuuanu Valley, near the old ice
works caught fire and was burned
to the ground. The house was in
sured for 81, 600.-Aug. 27.

A MYSTERIOUS DISAPPEARANCE.

THO steamer Kinau brings news
of supposed case of murder. On
Sept. 3rd, Mr. ID. Kapahee, school
teacher, called on Captain Eldart,
Sheriff and Agent of Board Of
Health for Puma, presumably to
draw his pay, and has not been seen
since. A diligent search was i'm
mediately instituted as soon as Ka-
pahee was missed, and the only
imaginable trace of him was a trail
OF blood which led to no further
development. Kapahee is supposed
to have been murdered and China
men are suspected of the crime.

Hilo is still the same old place
despite the much Wanted opposi-
ton to its prosperity, by many who
ought to have been its best friends.
Days come and 60 with the same
degree of stiffness and lack of real
business, yet their number is many
who still indulge in the hope of bet
ter times and the rendering of tardy
justice to our willing tax payers by
a Legislature pledged to carry out
its enactments according to the true
tenor and meaning thereof, and
not to ignore the public works and
necessitous improvement which that
body has provided for in the cur
rent Legislature. At Hilo it is and
always has been crying shame,
the utter neglect and want of wharf
accommodation. The second town
of this kingdom has but small
shed, with few steps from the
surfy waves, to receive the travell-
er and his baggage, and the main
front street is disgrace to the pre-
siding functionary and Hilo itself.
OF water there is more than to spare
in every part of the town, yet the
habits Of the Portuguese and Chi
nese bordering on the streams are
such as to cause an increasing polu-
ton of the water rendering it dan
gerous to those compelled to use it,
as witness the late mortality by
typhoid fever etc. In the town
most people believe that respect
able road to the Volcano would of
itself be great and desirable bene-
fiji to Hilo, as we'll as an undoubted
advantage to travelling tourists tho
would enjoy a short stay in this dis
trict. There can be no doubt it
would, largely enhance the public
good. Now that it is ascertained
there is disappearance of blight
much attention is given to the
means TO he adopted by the Govern

tiyatlou OF coffee. There is plenty
of land as well as are there willing

stealing fruit at Kalihi, yesterday.
The father of the boy came to town
with the youngster, this morning,
to swear out warrant for the ar
rest of the owner of the dog. The
owner getting wind of the move

THE S. N. CASTLE ASHORE.

Quite early this morning tele-
phonic message reported the bark
cntine S. n. Castle ashore at Kua-
Ioa, near Col. Judd's ranch. At
about s O'Clock the agents of the
barkentine, Messrs. Castle & Cook,
despatched the tug Eleu to the res
cue. Reports were continually re-
ceived and the blackboards of the
news-dealers kept the public pretty
well informed as to the position of
the Castle. The steamers j. A.
Cummins and Waimanalo, being in
the vicinity of Kualoa at The
time of the casualty, were III
first to reach the Castle
and at q few minutes before II
O'Clock report came that the bark
entine was afloat and on her way to
Honolulu. The vessel went aground
at about half tide and at the time of
her getting off the tide was pretty
high. Seamen say that the reef at
Kualoa is covered with about one
foot of sand and the chances are
that the Castle is but slightly
scratched. At about 2:30 O'Clock
this afternoon the $. n. Castle was
reported off Waimanalo in tow of
the steamer j. A. Cummins. Sept.
9Th.
LATER,
The barkentinc S. n. Castle, Cap
tain Hubbard, entered port last
evening, in tow of the tug Elue and
anchored in the stream. The Castle
went onto the reef at Kualoa at
4:30 O'Clock Thursday morning,
during a squall. About a mile or
two from where she became fast she
lightly touched reef, and seeing a
light, and supposing it to be Molo-
kai light, stood off, but, stuck
another reef and stuck there. Her
chon0meter was about 80 miles out.
Anchors and other gear were run
out and the vessel was hauled off
into four fathoms OF water. About
20 minutes later stuck another reef,
by her anchor breaking. Kedge
anchors were run out and shortly
before II O'Clock the vessel was
hauled clear of the second reef,
and having telephoned to Honolulu
for assistance she remained at an
Choir until the steamer Cummins
arrived and towed her out 10 sea.
The entire shoe of the Castle wa:
torn off and her keel pretty badly
broken. The sea became smootl
shortly after the Castle first struck
and the humping of the vessel OF
the reef, was comparatively light
She made water but slowly; no
enough to damage the cargo ant
requiring the working of the pump
but once an hoar. The Cast
docked at Brewers wharf thi
morning and after discharging wi
so on the Marine Railway. --Sept

view. The most blatant disciple OF
free trade will never consent to relin-
quish line in which he is interested to
foreign tradesman, and it is because
the views Of the president and his wing
of the party are not broad enough to
comprehend the needs of the whole
country that they stand pledged to free
trade and its impOvcrishing conse-
quenccs.
1t may be confidently asserted that
the free trade delusion is not more
prevalent in democratic ranks than in
former years, but the spectacle, abhor-
ent to true Americans, of a chief exec
utiye endorsing the theory, has given 1t
new pretenslons. However, the party
will have occasion to reflect upon the
folly of its policy when the country has
expressed its dissatisfaction in Noyem-

house emphasizes the stereotyped fact
that a good many of the democrats are
ms false in that regard as in many of

they are in favor of protecting certain

of the fact is given in the attitude of

occasion to review the history of VOor-
hees, of Indiana, and in bringing out
facts of his career prior to and during
the war, greatly irritated the tall Syca-
more of the Wabash, who flew into q
rage of passion, and violated rules Of
the house and of decency in finding ex-
preston for his ire. ingalls, attack
was prompted by the attempt of Voor-
hees to euIOgize Union generals, and
the kansan only spoke to emphasize
the inconsistency. lie resurrected some
of Voorhees, anti-bellum expressions of
sympathy with secessiOnists, and re
minded the public of threatened at
tack upon Voorhees, by Union soldiers
while on railroad train. The senator
from Indiana insulted the dignity of
the senate by so far forgetting himself
as to call ingalls, liar, but in six days
he was so far recovered from the blow
as to apologize to his colleagues. 1t is
offered by his friends as an apology
that he was intoxicated at the time and
really unaecountable. The general
public heartily endorses Senator ingalls,
in refreshing the public memory as tC
recent history, even though it may dis
turb the conscience Of the unrepentant
Voorhees, will now sit down and keeI
still.
