IT, This course was adopted with the knowl-
edge and consent OF the provisional govern

Mr. Parker as to whether this was the final

FIRST reading OF the new constitution on the
2lst inst. 1t is thought it will be promulgated
on July T.
Upon the suggestion of Admiral Walker

here for many years to give such permission
TO all nationalities. A subsequent request of
similar caracter in behalf Of the British

1t is understood that no immediate ac-
tion will be taken by the United States in
the way Of formal recognition Of the Ha-
waiian republic. The state department
is not yet advised with the formality that
the occasion requires of the establishment
of the new republic-that is TO say moth
ing but telegraphic information-no
formal mail advices from our minister in
Honolulu having been received. The
President regards the Hawaiian matter
as transferred to congress. When he re-
ceives Mr.. Willis formal announcement
of the proclamation of the republic he
will transmit that to congress for it's &C
tion. Up to the present time Minister
Willis has only officially advised the gov
ernment that the constitution was fin
ished and about TO be proclaimed.
