CORBETT THE VICTOR.
Champion Of the World John [. Sullivan
Knocked Out in q Rounds.
Arrival of the Mouowaf This
Morning.

As elsewhere stated the S. s.
Monowai arrived off port this
morning and came to anchor where
she will remain until DR.. Trous-
seau makes a thorough examina-
ton.
Pilot Lorenzen who went out to
the vessel to notify Capt. Carey of
the Board Health's order returned
to Brewers wharf this morning at
3 o'clock and brought the news
regarding the Sullivan-Corbett
fight.
The details are meagre but the
fact is that John l.. Sullivan, the
champion of the world, had his
colors lowered by James Corbett,
the young California pugilist.
TwENTY-oNE ROUNDS FOUGHT.
The fight lasted for twenty-one
rounds and it took Sullivan four
minutes to recover from the blow
that finally knocked him out.
Corbett outsparred and out
fought his bury antagonist from
the start and allowed Sullivan to
hit him but five times during the
twenty-one rounds.
James Corbett is now the cham
pion pugilist of the world.

Public attention has been called
to the extraordinary statement
made that the price of opium in
Honolulu now ranges from $3.50
for California brands to 500 a
pound for China. The ADVERTISER
IS assured by gentleman claiming
to be posted, that the best Hong
kong opium can be purchased here
for 1880 to $19, Victorian for
$3.50 to $17.25, and Californian
$40 to 81. Here is a difference Of
from five to ten dollars from the
rates quoted by contemporary,
and indicates that the article is as
abundant as it has been at any
time for several months past.

A DRAPED DESK
Reminds Ccngressmen Of Deaths
Vigilance.

WASHINGTON. June 14.-The desk of
the late Congressman EFT. StackhouSe,
of South Carolina, was heavily draped
IN the house this morning, and its SOL
emn appearance was the first intimation
to many of the members of the house
that one of their colleagues had passed
away.
Mi. Tillman. of South Carolina, said
that it became his sad duty to announce
to the house the death of his colleague,
Eli Il. StackhOuse. His death was very
sudden and unexpected. Only yester-
day he answered the roll call in cheer
ful spirit. Then, complaining of the
heat and of the atmosphere. he left for
home. AT proper time, Mr..
Tillman said, the South Caro-
lima delegation would ask the
house to set aside day for tribute to
his memory. MIR. Tlllman then offered
resolutions (Which were unanimously
adopted) expressive of the sorrow of
the house and providing for commit
tee of members and senators to take
order in regard to the funeral. The
speaker appointed the following COM
tee on the part of the house: MesSrs.
Tillman, Lanham, Cate, Lewis. Shell,
Jolley and Waugh. The house then, as
a mark of respect. adjourned.
The senate remained in session only
long enough to transact some routine
business, and then adjourned out OF re-
spect to the memory of Hon. E. T..
Stackhouse. Mr.. Morgan. of Alabama,
who intended to address the senate on
the silver question today, will probably
deliver his remarks tomorrow.
