 For, lol my own shall come to me. stay my haste; l make delays,
 For what avails this eager pace9 stand amid the eternal ways, z And what is mine shall know my face. Asleep, awake, by night or day, V The friends seek are seeking me: No wind can drive my bark astray
 Nor change the tide of destiny. What matter if stand alone?
 wait with joy the coming years. My heart shall reap where it has sown And garner up it's fruit of tears The waters know their own and draw
 The brook that springs in wonder heights; So flows the good with equal law
 Unto the soul of pure delights. Yon fioweret nodding in the wind
 Is ready plighted to the bee, And, maiden, why that look unkindf
 For, lol thy lover seeketh thee. The stars come nightly to the sky,
 The tidal wave unto the sea, Nor time nor space nor deep nor high Can keep my own away from me. ...a..II -- John Burroughs.

FIFTY YEARS AGO.

1t is a rather singular coincidence
that this year should be the tiftieth an
niversary Of the establishment of Brit
ish rule in these islands and of the
lowering of the English flag after it had
waved for several months over the
Hawaiian group. The parallel is made
the more peculiar by the fact that,
during the crisis, the interests Of the
United States were guarded here by
the old man-of-war Boston, the modern
namesake uf which has played such
significant part IN the stirring events Of
the present era.
The British annexation was effected
by Lord George Pauiet of the Carys-
fort who arrived here on February 10,
IS43 The English captain had made
demands upon the King which he
could not aCcede to, and as a result
the islands were surrendered under pro.
test to Queen Victurla'S government.
All Hawaiian flags were destroyed and
the natives settled d wn into a sullen
but pace bic acceptance of British
auth,rlty.
AS afterwards appeared, l. I'd George
Pauet had 4cted without his official
province. The news Of his seizure
wentabroad and in July Admiral Thorn
as of the British navy,-whose pict-
ure has an honored place on the walls
OF lolanl palaCe-arrived in port bring
ing friendly message to the King and
promising to restore the throne without
conditions. The formal act OF restora-
ton took place on the site of Thomas
square and has been described as fol.
lows by Hon. G.. ID. Gilman, an eye
witness
A large square had been roped off around
which the people rapidly gathered. In the
centre was the flagstaff and on it the
English flag was flying. Cannons were placed
at proper distances for the purpose Of sauting.
Ali the officers and men from the war ships in
port were present. The admiral, approaching
the position Of Lord Paulet, consented that he
might remain on board his own ship and not
be present at what to him would have been
| but very humiliatinp spectacle. The Admi-
raj and staff were there assembled and took
| their assigned places. His Majesty the king,
with his high chiefs, mobiles and ministers Of
state and household troops were also present.
AT given signal the English flag was lowered
and the Hawaiian flag resumed its restored
place, and was saluted simultaneously by the
fort, from PunchbowI hill and in the harbor
and then the Numbering of cannon mingled
with the strains from the bands, and the loud
reclamation Of the people proclaimed by
thousands of Iusty voices that King Kaui<e
%Gul was again the restored sovereign OF the
iC Nmn of ,be o"cbrg services that followed
was the restoration to favor of certain troop,
