I refer particularly to the change iv public opinion in reference to the temperance cause, so vitally interesting to the welfare of any community.

For example, " Stuart* Visit; Ellis' Researches," and last, but not least, Mr. Jarvis' interesting work on the Hawaiian Islands, have had a great sale, and are among the most popular works of the day. Now lam prepared to assert, a new era has commenced in the moral world of these Islands.— The temperance flag has been planted, and around it have rallied a goodly number, resolved to sustain the cause they hare espoused with all their might.
