From Samoa.

We have advices from Apia to the 22d
of June, by the Alameda. All was
quiet, as will be seen by the following
extract from the Samoan Times:
"Peace has now been arranged be-
tween Malietoa and Tamasese. Each of
the opposing parties have held their
fonos. All the customary forms have
been gone through by both parties, in
accordance with the customs and tradi-
tions of Samoan warfare The war
Ratchet, as far as the natives are con-
cerned, is now buried; we hope so deep
it will never again be brought to the
surface to be welded in civil war
Many of our foreign residents, more es-
pecially those who have been a number
of years living ON the islands, and who
are well acquainted with the tribal jeal-
BUSINESS OF the natives of our groups have
a foreboding (Which is to some extent
justified by their previous experiences
that the natives will again break out
into rebellion against any king or gov
eminent that may be appointed to rule
over them. Such may probably occur,
but we anticipate those instructions
will never again form into body suffi-
GENTLY numerous to interfere to any ma
terial extent with the existing authority,
and will be suppressed without much
difficulty by the Government, which will
be established under the peoples chosen
king, aided and supported by the great
Powers

The Regatta.

Mr.. EDITOR: The Fourth of July
Committee has made mistake in
placing their money intended for
boat-race prizes in the hands of the
Hawaiian Rowing Association. That
association is at present composed of
two boat clubs, neither of which has
had boat on the bay for the last
twelve months.
On the supposition that the Fourth
of July Committee would offer a
prize, a race was arranged between
the Myrtles and crew belonging to
no particular club, to be rowed under
rules satisfactory to both crews, but
under the auspices of no played-out
Rowing Association. The prize
should be offered for the benefit of
those who spend their money and
time IN putting themselves in proper
condition for race.
An unusual feature in the regatta
programme is the offering of SIS for
a stationary-se seat boat race while the
principal race, the sliding seat, is
offered but $40. OARsMAN.

Among the through passengers by the

Hon. James Orkney, and the Rev. Mr..
King, at one time missionary at Samoa.
Sir Solners Vine has been on lectur-

denotes, in connection with the Imperial
Institute of London, and the chief theme
upon which he lectured was Imperial
Confederation" Part of his mission was
to confer with the colonial governments
regarding the same matter and also pro-
ducts of the colonies.
The Hon. James Orkney was long a
member for West Melbourne in the Vic
toria parliament; but, recently, he has
been engaged exploring the more I'M
known portions of the northern and
western Australian coasts and New
| Guinea
The Rev. Mr.. King was not inter
viewed by our reporter, and his ante
cedents were not learned further than
what is stated above He, however, is
to return to the colonies after eight
months absence.

Doggere1.

Mr.. EDITOR: I have had poetic
fit, and enclose a piece of doggere
for publication. Yours truly.
TUBBs.
Following is the doggerel referred
to:
The steamer came on in the MONDAY
glare;
The pilots boat at the wharf was ready
When the "three" embarked who were
waiting there,
And the boat pushed off-the pull was
steady.
Onward they sped DER the shimmering
food;
Each heart beat high, but few words
were spoken,
And soon on the deck the committee
stood,
But looked in vain for the Admiral's
token.
Sad were the words as they fell on the
ear
"We left him there at his post of glory.
But part of the Admiral's crew is here.
And that, my friends, is the gist of the
story"
