know it all" air which Is the ear
mark of your fin de steele Amer
lean. He ignored prominent eiti-
zens, he did not want to interview
anybody-except legislators-and
no one could teach him anything,
because he had the country, its
customs, its morals, its politics,
and It's intrigues all sized up"
before he had had time to
drive from the wharf TO the Hotel.
In the meanwhile he seems to have
fallen into the hands Of a disreput-
able clique who have evidently
gulIed him with all sorts of tales,
some Of which he retails with a
childish credulity which IS most
affecting. He relates his CONVEX
sations with hackmen, and, from
their disquisitions, he seems to have
derived his stock of political i'm
pressions, which are compounded
chiefly Of the staIest twaddIe about
missionaries and planters.
The subject, however, to which
Mr.. Williams returns with the most
constant gusto is the American Min
lister, whom he pursues with a spleen
which might give piquancy to a
paragraph, but which is very fat
when spread over half a dozen col
umns. Even in this matter, how
ever, one presumes that the astute
representative of the California
daily has been victimized by some
local backbiter, and his tiresome
falsehoods smack as much of ignor-
ance as of malice.
It seems disgracefuI that a great
San Francisco journal should send
a reporter two thousand miles to
ascertain the facts about a foreign
country, and then be able to offer
its readers no better thing than the
gossip Of the stable and the bar
room. But, in point of fact, the
Examiner has got just what
it sent for Tt was in search of a
sensation, and it found one. The
truth was a secondary considera,
ton. IF Mr.. Williams had really
wished to understand the state oil
the country, he would have inter
viewed Mr.. Irwin, Mr.. Hartwell
Mr.. Bishop, Mr. Emmeluth and
twenty other leading representa-
tives of the mercantile, profess
sional, agricultural and mechani-
cal interests Of the country. If he
had taken such a course, he would
have got the sober, drab-colored
truth, and not the parti-colored
sensation he was in search Of. For
the purposes of the great" journal
which he represented, he was right
in preferring, as source of in
formation, the exchange of jests
over a cocktail and card table, to
the opinions of Honolulu's leading
citizens.

THE EXAMINER ON HAWAII.

Not long since this enterprising
San Francisco daily sent its city
editor, Mr.. T. J. Williams, to
Honolulu with the ostensible OBJ
ject of finding out the truth about
this country. The Examiner arti-
cles have now appeared, and we
are compelled to infer that the
motive of Mr.. Williams mission
was to collect materials for a rom
ance, a political fairy tale, South
Sea idyl, an opium dream, for any
thing in short, but true story.
Mr.. Williams appeared in our
little community with that II

THURSDAY. NOVEMBER l, 1852.
IN THE HOUSE.

The Legislature yesterday struck
out of the Appropriation Bill the
item for the arrangement and pre-
servation of the Government ar
chives, and the preparation of a
Hawaiian photography, and Rep.
Ashford embraced the opportunity
to make an outrageous personal
attack upon Mr.. Hoes, to whom
this important and difficult work
was to be entrusted.
The course of the House in this
matter seems to US exceedingly i'll
advised, and, if it is possible, the
action taken should be rescinded.
1t is a direct insult to the Queen,
who, through her Chamberlain,
requested that Mr.. Hoes might be
relieved from active service in
order to perform this work. The
request was forwarded to the Naval
Department at Washington, and it
was courteously acceded to. The
action of the Queen in the matter
was with the approval of her
Cabinet. The Foreign Affairs
Committee of the House unani-
mously presented an elaborate re-
port strongly recommending an
appropriation for the purpose, and
the item passed the second reading
without dissenting voice. Rely
ing on the course taken by Her
Majesty, the Cabinet, the Foreign
Affairs Committee and the House
itself, Mr.. Hoes has already devoted
months of labor to this service yet
the House, without even making
compensation for the labor actually
performed, and from motives not
of the best, have stricken the item
from the bill. 1t is submitted that
such conduct is neither just nor
honorable, nor expedient.
The right of the Legislature to
repudiate the action of Queen and
Cabinet is not disputed. Her Ma
jesty had of course no right to bind
that body to any appropriation.
Had the objects sought to be OBJ
tanned been considered unworthy,
or had it been impossible to pro-
vide funds to secure them, the con-
duct of the House would have been
defensible. But such was not the
case, and the real motive for rejec-
ton of the item was opposition to
Mr.. Hoes, as foreigner. That
gentleman's special qualifications
for the task are not disputed in
any quarter, and to attempt at this
late date to defeat the appropria-
ton out of opposition to him, or a
desire to substitute the services of
some one else, is, as Noble Bald
win has shown, simply dishonor-
able.
The foregoing observations are
not intended as a vindication of
Mr.. Hoes-for he requires no vim
dication. He has not lobhied, he
has not thrust himself forward !;
his conduct has been throughout
marked by the honorable delicacy
of a gentleman. Our object is
simply to draw attention to an
error-committed, as we must be-
lieve, without due refection--in
the hope that its effects may yet be
repaired.

How Algrettes Are Obtained.

From little pamphlet just issued by
the Society for the Protection of Birds
in England it appears that the white
aigrettes, so much worn on bonnets and
hats and as ornaments for the hair, are
obtained from the egret, or heron The
bird is found in warm climates. and is
smaller and more graceful in line than
the English heron. The feathers of
this bird are white, very delicate, and
spirally curled toward the point The
plumage of the egret is so snowy white
that different species of the bird have
been given scientific names of alba. i'm
maculata and candidissima. The spe.
cial plumes. so much in demand for
millinery, grow only in the breeding
season. The hunters find the best and
easiest time to shoot the bird and Sc
cure. these feathers to be when the
young egrcts are fully fledged, but not
able to fly. 1t has been computed that
for every bird of the rare species that is
captured ten have been sacrificed,
counting the young that die of starva-
tion the wounded that fly away to drop
down into the reeds and bushes TO die.
and those that are too much mutilated
to be used
