that as soon as possible his remains

even his bones should lie in a country
where he had suffered so much and
among people who had SO prosecuted
him.
Tho various misfortunes which had
prevented my great-grandfather and my

never for moment been forgotten. The

Australia, with Honolulu adyices of Dec.

no material change had taken place in tho
military or political attitude of the differ

being secretly armed. The marshal is
satisfied that over two hundred new Win
chester rifles have been taken into Homo
lulu In small lots from the Island of Maui
during the past month and distributed to
the royalist adherents.

now large and in higher state of organ

watch Is kept upon the movements Of the

the arrival of the Alameda, on the ED
inst, Minister Willis will carry out his
orders to reinstate the queens govern

came to where we were seated and said
given too much to the whirl and rush
incident to the race after wealth and the
worship of Mammon, to see one man in
our community who halts and turns
aside to do honor to the bones and ashes
of his ancestors. Mr.. johnson, you have
set an example in this village which is
being followed. Your action, sir, is bear
ing good fruit"

of my life" said my father modeatly,
''to thus bring to one spot and perina-

graves beyond the sea in the mother

as sacred duty by my father, and to
him by his father, to bring the bones Of
