Saratoga will also he repaired to considerable

The idea has arisen in the mind of the editor, that, at the present time, when a new
king is ascending the Hawaiian Throne, a
few brief shetches of former kings would be
read with much interest. We mentioned the
idea to a "new resident," and he most

heartily approved of the plan.
" Old residents" may know all about the former age,
but those persons recently taking up their
abode upon our shores, are not possessed of
this knowledge. They are desirous however
of acquiring information, and are continually
