and gome of the foreign residents, are also
about petitioning the government to stop
the grog shops at this place,
From another letter, dated at Honolulu,
on the 20th inst. we have the following remarks :—
The ship masters here are doing something for temperance—they are drawing up
a petition to government to suppress the
grog shops. Several have signed'it but

perance."
The remarks in regard to seamen, have
been made in consequence of their frequent
intercourse at this place, and the facts have
been mentioned to show, as fur as possible,
exactly how the temperance cause stands
here. From these facts, three things are
perfectly obvious:—
1. That temperance principles are making rapid progress among ship masters in
the Pacific.
2. That where the government takes
the lead and temperance is popular, all
approve of it and lend their influence to
support it.
3. That where government suffers grog
shops to exist, and entire abstinence from
ardent spirits is unpopular,s ome hesitate,
waver, and oppose,and throw their influence upon tbe side of intemperance.
If we may except some fifteen or twenty
persons, there has been no external evidence that five pillions of ardent spirits
have been drank by the 37,000 natives, for
nine years, and as ship masters and officers
are beginning to combine their influence
with the government to prevent the use of
it, it gives a still more pleasing prospect
for the future.

Rev. S. C. Damon:—
Dear Sir,—lt is now nearly a year since
I received your kind communication of this
day last year, addressed to Mr. Murray
and myself. For want of an opportunity 1
have been hindered from answering it long
before—now, as it is, I shall have to send
this via Sydney and Tahiti.
I return you my thanks for the Magazines and newspapers you so kindly sent as.
We found them most interesting. It is a
pity I think, that the Directors of the various Protestant Missions, have not an interchange of their publications among their
numerous agents throughout the world, so
that each may read what is doing.
Before furnishing you with any account
of our labors in this field, I shall try and
briefly answer your several queries:
Ist. ffow far has the Temperance Reform

I think I may safely soy, that drunkenness is a vice almost unknown among the
natives of this group. I am aware that
many wicked foreigners have used numerous devices' to betray them into this sin ;
but they have almost in every case withstood the temptation. Though I have resided here, at the principal harbor, for nine
years, I have never seen an intoxicated native.
<M. Are spirits distilled upon the Hands ?
I have heard of some instances of its
being done by foreigners, but I suppose
they are rare, and when attempted, it must
be in an under sort of way.

vernment respecting- Licenses 1
There is uo properly constituted government in Samoa. Every land has its'chief,
and. each is unwilling that another should
dictate to him. Still, in mutters which
em the public welfare, they are ready
to agree, and enact tews. After all, as it
remains with each party to act upon those
regulations or not, as they please, it is of
course very difficult for the well disposed
part of the community, to stand out against
an evil which demands punishment. From

Tbe annual increase appears te proceed in

the treaty stipulations, and if the treaty

contained in the Ist and Id sectiona of the Joint rest)

nexation of Texaa ac a State ef the Union.
Thia ordinance ahall be immediately forwarded by a
special messenger to tbe President of tbe I. States,
who will receive ft with the gratification its dignity and
importance are co well calculated to produce in every
patriotic heart. Texas has thus manifested to tha
world, with a unanimity unparalleled in the disposition
ef a debated political queetion, her preference of aa
association with iho Republican Slates composing the
Federal Union, over all the advantages, real or imaginary , that were held outto her aa a separate nation—
with a discrimination quickened by her contact with
foreign intioences, she has learned in her battle field
and ia her civil experience, the necessity of union
among the votaries of freedom ; and ia voluntarily
agreeing to take her place hereafter as a sovereign
member of the American confederoey, she has paid a
tribute to tbe cause of popular government., which will
command the admiration of the world,
Prom the date of this ordinance, Texas will have
acquired a right to the protection ef the U. States, and
tbe wndeteigsod ie happy lo inform you that tha President of the U States has taken steps to afford this
protection in the most effective manner against future
Mexican and Indian invasion*.

achievement of her independence and liberty have
