FROM THE SANDWICH ISLANDS..
By the whaling ship Jarred Maury, Capt. Whel
deJ, from Honolulu, Dec. 2.5 th, ‘63 have received a
copy of the Polynei.ian of the latest date, from which
we gather the following items:
The whale ship Francis Henrietta, Capt.-Poole,
of this port, fell in with at sea, in May, lat. 42 N.
ion. 850 E., aJapatiese junk of 200 tons, dismasted
rudder g.nae ;and otherwise injured in a typhoon sev
en menthes previous. The original number of the
crew <Vas seventeen, but when Cnpt. Poole discover
ed them they were reduced to four, and in a famish
'Mg condition. The crew had drawn tuts for some
lame past who should be killed and eaten; the one
!tpon whom the lot fell, if able, fought for his life,
and in some instances succeeded in killing one of
the others, in which case the murdered man was
first eaten.
The survivors were shockingly searrei with dirk
knife wounds, as if their lives had -been often at
tempted by their companions. Capt. _Poole kept
them on buard - his ship thirty days, and then put
thenrmfboard tome -fishing boats, close in shore,
about lat. 40 N. They were exceedingly grateful,
tend manifested much emotion on leaving the %%hal
ter; The junk had nut much of a cargo on board, or
was in cosh a diegestieg condition that the l crew Of
the Frances Henrietta did nut like to eximiine her
minutely; they obtained, however, a number of- in
teresting curiosities, such as books, idols, sworhs,
pictures, fans, boxes, china ware, boxes of tools, etc.
• The Bremen ship Otecheite, Capt. \Violet:, had
previously picked up another Japanese junk, reliev
ed the distressed crew, and at Ifonolulu left sei.eral
thousand dollars' worth of her cargo;-‘l, hick was sold
at auction at that place, Dec. Bth, awl brought good
feces, the sales realizing about 813,000, exclu-ive
of beeswax, which uas reserve I to be sent to Eu
rope. The Polynesmn says:
"Phe junk's care( appeared to consist of 'notions,'
'and the samples orJapartese merchandise acre suf
ficient to shi;ix that they hate many article 3 - that
• could be profitably experted,and that their own skill
and comfort could be materially increilseileby to for
eign trade. Some copper, brassehoop, iron and iron
wire, white lead, glue, ginger and cinnamon, were
of excellent quality. Their wrought copper uten
sils resemble in design and shape the :metallic and
earthen manufactures of the Mexicans and Peruvi-
Urns of the 15th eehtm y. chile their tools, although
made of good iron :mil steel, tire simple enough to
construction to provoke the merriment of the green
est son of New England."
A publiceelebration or temperance feast was hell
by the pupils of the native schools, at Honolulu, on
the ltith of Nut .ein the vicinity of the town. in
the vicinity of the tau n, in which the King and
chiels participated& About 800 scholars, nearly
600'parents, and a large number of spectators, were
present.
Upward of 500 tables,were arranged for the re
past, at Which some Liktl i pigs, 379 too Is. '215 gce-c,
with ducks, turkeys, fish, ‘egetables, fruit, &c.,
in like (panties, were demolished. The celebra
tions are held under the auspices of the mission , ries
and arc becoming deservedly peeler.
The George Washington and the, Maria Ifelc nn,
for the United Slates, were tol sail Iron Honolulu
in Dec. The .Nlaria Ilelen, a merchat ship, could
toucti at Tahiti and Valparaiso—thence to this port.
The volcano nt Ki!anea had exhibited and increas
ed action about the Ist of Dec., and on the t?,d there
was a slight earthquake.
A large invoiceol standard books from the establish
ment of the Harpers, in New York, was reeeked at
Honolulu, 0et.'12011:,, and in less, than six weeks,
about one thousand dollars worth had been retailed
among the town's people and foreign reside:its.—
The foreign'residents of East Al±uu had ordered an
entire set of larper's Family Library, consisting of

without cultivation, are dye-wdods—such as log

THE FRENCH ELEcTIONS
Me. Bancroft, our minister to England, was in
Paris during the elections of Aprin3d, of members
of the national assembly. It *ds an 'occasion for
an American to be proud of, for it vindicated the ca •
moderation and intelligence of the masses.
Mr. B. w?tites that the elections passed off with more
of order and quiet and good humor than we are ac
customed to in the States at any exciting election.
The arrangements were perfect. All Paris was
divided into arondissements or wards; and 'teach of
,them into sub-divisions, so that none should exceed
a thousand voters. These again were arranged un
der sections of the alphabet, at which were atutioned
the checkers of the voters. Each voter was previ
ously prepared with a pass containing his name, ago
and place of birth, which had been obtained of the
registers. With this pass he presented himself; it
was examined, the end clipped off, and with this bq
passed to another apartment, where, unseen, he de
-1 posited his secret ballott for his candidate, which
wtoi received by persons who could not see the de
po-itor, who then passed out. In this way all voted
as rapidly as was necessary, and none knew ftir
whom his neighbor cast his vote, and no excitement,
di,torbalice, riot or dissatisfaction appeared.
Iltippy has been the beginning. of the elections in
Prance. Gloriously.the people, by their prudence
and discretion, are putting to shame their Amulet , .
ers and the unbelievers in self-government. It is
understood that the elections have generally gone in
favor of the moderate republicans.
MUTINY AND MASSA( ar.—Papers received by the
Cambria state that the British convict'ship General'
Wood, was seized when two days but from Singa
pore. bound to Penang, by the convicts on board, and
the captain and nearly all the whites of the crew
murdered, - About twenty lascars and the passen
gers i'ere spared:. The mutineers ran the vessel
t p..:1,043 on the Island of Bangarow, off the Malay
coast; fink then abandoned - her.. Soon after she
went down, the passengers saving themselves with
ditlieulty'in the boats. The Malays subsevently
took part u ith the passengers, and the convicts were
obliged to tly from the Island. They' took to their
boats: leaving 20 of their number behind, who were
made prisoners. The fugitive convicts had not been
heard of. appears that the captain, officers and
crew. with the single exception of third mate, were
seized with a panic when the convicts made their
attack, and offered scarcely any resistance. Some
of them were butchered on deck, others thrown alive
into the sea. ,There was no military guard on board
the vessel and elbuvicts were not even handcufliml!
biroaTANT INvyNnoxs.-111r. David (sham,
'machineist of Hartford, Conn., has recently invented
a process by which iron can be converted almost in
stantly, and with but slight expense andlabor into
steel. 'l'v only minutes Only are necessary Ito con
vert a ton of iron into steel of the best quality, a pro
cess of requiring from zix to ten days. The inven
tor has been ollbred 12.030 fur the patent right for
the State of Pennsyvania alone. Articles manufac
tured front steel thus prepared, have been proved
and found equal to those manufactured front the best
English steel. If this invention in really what it
purports to be, it will destroy one great hraqnch of
English labor and add much to the .wealth AA this
count:ry.
The Rev. - Mr. Pepper, a Presbyterian clergyman
of Albany, N. Y. has invented a compound of clay,
which resembles in - stricture and appearance
the richest, variegated agates. It is to be used for
doorknobs, pavements, tabler tops and other orna
mental articles. It surpasses in briliancy any
known variety of marble, and is equally cheap The
Hartford Whig speaks of it in the following terms.
ttNo. one, who has not seen it, can form an i ea of
its beauty and illimitably variety of color. It ill so
ha rdas to resist any scratch except that of a crystal
or diamond. Already, Mr. Calhoun has introduced
in the Senate a resolution,' which passed instantly,
to the effect, that all the floors of the public offices in
the capital should be made of this beautiful materi

SLOUGHING Orr TUB OLD COAT.--We preceive
that one of the most - ardent of the supporters of Gen.
Taylor invokes the Federalists. to take hint up, be
cause, he says, it will give them the opportunity to
drop their old creed, and come out a new party, hav
ing no relatinn whatever to their past misdeeds.—
The advice reminds us of the advertisements of a
famous patent-medicine, in which the merits of the
nostrum are extrolled as being able to effect a per
fect change in the whole man, and, in a certain space
of time,lo substitute for a body impaired and dis
ease.l, one that is wholy elastic and new. But we
suspect that the conpoup•l in question, will be une
qual to the task of changing bad into Bond qualities.
So with the name of Gen Taylor, adopted by-the op
position as their motto an I their • guiding-star. It
cannot change the heart of inveterate Federalism?

TOR STORM BREwINU.-A gentleman, who has
been recently spending some time in London, says
the New York Dispatch, has described to its a scene,
which occured at one of the theatres, but was never
repotted- by the British press. The band played,
"God shve the Queen." A few persons commenced
to appiand as usual, when to their loyal astonish
ment, no doubt, they fond their plaudits druwond
iti'ltisses, At this a stalwart fellow stood up in the
pit,and cried "God sine the People." which exclama
tion was received with thunders of applause.
In view of the apparent d stiny of all crowned
heads, "God save the Queen!" becomes a highly ap
propriate/ ejaculation.

the shore by a man. TIM boat was stopped, the
yaw! sent out, and the stranger taken on board.—
On reaching the boat, it was soon discovered that
his clothes were wet, and from his boom protruded
the handle of a lame boWie knife. For bottle tine
he kept aloof fromthe misseng,ers, and refused to
answer any questions put to him. Ilis-appearanCe
was that of a man laboring Onder alienation of mind,
which together with the fact of his clothes being
wet awl Ins mysterious manner and singular appear
ance generally, so excited the curiosity of the NW-
St'llfferA that just before night seeing him on the boi
ler deck they crowded around and inquired how his
clothes bename so wet. He replied tint he started
that inn ruing - for St. Louis on a log, which torued
over and threw him into the water;, and at the same
time his bowie knile-and threatened to kill the
first man that laid hands on him. He was assured
that no harm should be done him, and questioned as
to his destination; he seemed very much alarmed, and
and replied that he did not know where he was go
ing—again drawing his knife in a threatening man
ner. He said lie lived at nidison, but when asked
Ins named turned aWay without disclosing it. He
scented very uneasy and walked incessantly from one
part of the boat to another, avodiug every body that
came in his way. •
The clerk of the boat, on his refusing.to answer
as to where he was going 'and his ultility to pay, told
tilmpie should go ashore at Alton. As the boat near
ed Alton he sprang into the water, crying help; but
befere he could be reacked with the yawl lie sunk
and could not be found.
On relating the circtimstatices of this mysterious
nffiiir at Alton, the officers of the boat were inform
ed that on Thursday morning the body of a man was
found shoctingly mutilated near Madison=--that the
Coroner of Alton was then gone to hold on inquest
upon the corpse; and, from the . circumstances had
no doubt that the person in question bud committed

HORRIBLE TRAGEDY.
On Wednesday night, about helf-past eleven 0'..;
clock. n luirrible tragedy was perpetrated in Walnut
street, under circumstances of slier great barbarity
that it excited considerable sensation of horror'even
among - t t depraved portion of the inhabitant
of that But alas it is Only one of the
many sacr •liich are continually offered up on
the altar of in mperance. It appears that a cooper
named Thomas Hayti,. living at •No. SI, Walnut St.,
was in the habit of quarrelling With his wife, but on
account of the frequency of the occurrence, these
quarrels caused no remark from the neighbors. On
the night in question, Hays come home intoxicated,
and was heard talking ang,rily with his wife, but
though her cries and the sound ()flier body fulling
sere heard, no notice was taken St the time, but
when the alarm was given and some persons entered
the room, a shocking sight was presented to their
eyes. The body of the murdered woman'was found
lying nn the floor weltering in blood, with her head
half cut oil,` and about a foot find a half from it was
a cooper's axe, also covered With blood, pointing out
too plainly that it was the iti , trument which had
been used by the murderer in the perpetration of the
horrible design.' From the position in which the
body lay, and the fact that drops of blood had gush
ed to the top of a bureau, there is no doubt but that
she was standing when she was tattuclftd. Yester•
day the Coroner held an inquest ()lithe body, and the
above filets, together with the following, transpired:
It 'appears that the murderer, after the deed was
(lobe, went to a druggist's :VI) next door to the
house he liqd andre( t 14,4 the proprietor, 111 r.
c3'eg;ier, to come up an. I to his wife, 'as she
was bleeding, lie we taltAttd after seeing that
she was dead, went on, 141 the circumstances
to nlbcer Powell, who ‘is;),.ttiki arrested Hays. On
brintring him to thOt.tatiori Wise, he appeared ex
cited, hut still sensible, and said that his wife had
got out of bed and aggravated bite, which was the
cause of his committing, the act. The jury return
ed a verdict i iu accordance withohe foregoing facts,
and the prisoner was confined in the bison of the
/hills of Justice to tmait 'his trial.—. Veto York

INTERESFING TRIAL, FOR ,COVNTERFSITIN6.—For
the past three days, the United States District court
Judge Conklin presiding,. has been engaged in the
trial of a ‘cr i y remarkable prosecution for the man
ufacture of bogus coin. The defendant is Dr. Salis
bury of Jamestown, Clintitamine county, a man
against whom, until this charge was preferred,
there was scarcely a breath of suspicion of guilt.
Ild was a milli of wealth, occupied a prominent po
sition in soe! '
ietv ‘t as a leading : member of one of
the'churches, anti yet it was given in evidence that
that after having spent the night 4 of a Saturday, fur
instance, in manufacturine- of cjitinterfeit coin,_he
%%wild go into the Sunday Scitool' the next morning
and take q leading part execises! lie
was a rOminent mover lin all philanthropic
projects of the day, retnarliable for piety, so
berness and benevolence! l'his was his gener
al character in communitys and yet from the
testimony on the part of the, prosecution, he was
connected with a band of thettitost deliberate scoun
rels'that ever went unwhipt tojostice!
It seems that 'he had constructed a room ten feet
by tAtelve, and seven feet high, in the rear of his
barn, on a side hill dug out of the ground, which
was covered over by plank, and on the top of this
was placed a hen house,,so etrectunily as, to prevent
discovery. The door leading to it was concealed,
that any one entering the burn a thousand times,
%%mild not have observed it. The manufacturers
generally worked at night, and just previous to the
Doctor s arrest, a maw residing on the adjoining lot,
discovered a light peering through the cracks, and
on looking through saw Salisbury and another coun
ting over w t hat resembled money, and heard the Doc_
tur say that if the other had a certain pile he must
pay part down or give security.
When preparing his press &c., for operations, it
seems that the Doctor represente that he was get
ting a root i null Made for grinding such roots used
in his practice us were too hard to pound! Salis
bury was convicted and sentenced to the State Pris
on at Aubni o f for several years.
A Hyalite SAILOR.—The New London (Conn.)
Chronicle mentions with commendation, the , heroic
deeds of a common sailor, on board the ship ftobert
Bourne, recently arrived at that port: -
As the ship was on her passage from the' Sand
wich Islands to the North West Coast, she encoun
tered a severe gale ofn hid, and while laying in un
der close-rceled main topsail,- one of- the foremost
hands, named Henry. , C. Smith, of Norwich, fell
overboard. The sea was rough that it seemed en
tirely out of the.question. to lower a boat. It could
not•be done without. placing in imminent peril any
boat's creW that tnight,be.ssrdered on so hopeless a
service. pf course the acrd went instantlyihrough
the ship that there was a "Irian overboard," when
a Portuguese sailor trout the Cape de Verds, carried
Peter An nine, who was than below, sprung on
deck, and in an instant threw himselt from the ships
side and b easted his way through the billow to
o ards the sinking sailor. It seemed impossible that
the gullat t fellow could sustain himself for any
length of one, much less that he — could reach and
render tin: assistance to his drowning shipmate.—
lie did, however, by an effort that seemed almost
superhuman, succeed in very nearly- reaching the
spot where Smith had till that time mhnaged to
keep his lead above water, when just at that mo
ment
mem the, pour fellow sunk to rise n o more, and
Antoine t i all human appearance was doomed -to
fodow Ibi s fate. Seeing his situation a determined
effut was made front the ship to save him. A boat
was gut over and a line from it beihg kept on board
the ship. 1 Antoine stns at last reached and finally
got salely onboard.
This mime capital fellow performed a like feat,
and with better success, on a subsequent part of
the voyage. Being with a boat's crew in the surf
at Maui, hebuttt capszed, and one of the crew by
the name of John N oo nan, was washed off, and be
ing unable to swim was upon the very point of
. drrowiling, when Antoine pitched into - the breakers
and bore him alive to the shore. • Nor does the rec
ord of the brave man's eflints in the Cause of human
ity close iere, through the other instance of his gal
lant conduct occurred some time before.
On a p et ions-voyage, sonic three or fours years
ago, in 11 re ship Romulus, of Mystic,' a sailor fell
overboari , and Antoine promptly plunged into the
sea, swats for his shipmate, and saved 'him!

EVADING THE LAW.—The taverit keepers of Syracuse
have adopted a very ingenious mode of getting on one
side of an ordinance, lately'pa.sed by the common coun
cil, prohibiting the riugiit of dinner bells in the street.
Ono man stands on the sidewalk shaking a bell williout
clapper, and another stand's within *the door ringing one,
loud enough to attract the attention of all stragglers, and
the pantomine of the fellow outside directs them to the
place of eating,
AN IMPRESSIVE FACT.-It will not be forgotten, sacs
the Pennsylvanian, after the battles of the Bth and 9th of
May, 1816, and following the capture of Monterey, that
tho Federal press claimed mearly all our Generals of tho
regular army as members of the Federal party. Every
opposition paper talked of the war as having been made a
war of victory by "Whig Generals." Time at last tells
the trnth, and we find how wide of the mark were all these
estimates. We now see the list of
. regular Generals and
Colonels, who arc Democrats, that comprises the best
blood of the old Lathy; Worth, Twiggs, Jessnp, Kearney,
I.6rnoy, Riley, and Duncan! nut, say the opposition
papers, Goti. Worth and Others, have become Democrats
since the war broke out! We deny the fact; but, if so,
.what does it prove? That the Federal opposition to the
leitr has concerted the officers, as well as the then, into
Democrats!
Gen. Reed's new boat, or rather a now boat caned
