| ‘Whaling Fleot, dic., dc. We have received news from Honolulu to the 11th of December, inclusive. It came by the way of San Francisco, and we are indebted to Messrs. Gre- gory & Co.'s California and Saudwich Island express for the latest papers. The American ship Alexander, with full cargo of bone and oil, and bound home, grounded on the edge of the channel, in Honolulu, heeled over and filled, on the 6th of December. The extent of the damage was not known. ‘The American whaleship A. H. Howland, while at anchor outside the harbor, was driven ashore during the gale of the 6th, aud proved a total loss. | The Polynesian censures the officers for allowing | the ship to lie at anchor in so dangerous a position. She had 1,655 barrels oil, and about 25,000 lbs. bone on board. George A. I ing to the whaling bar ford, was drowned by t surf, on Tuesday mornin, er, from Wrentham, Mass., belong- J. E.

THE NEW CONSTITUTION OF HAWAII. (From the Honolulu Argus, Dec. 9.] Last Monday, at noon, the new constitution was proclaimed, according to previous notice. After the ceremony of proclamation was over at the Stone church, His Majesty being present in his private ca- | pacity, arose and made an extempore address to the assembled people. It was short, but impressive and to the point, and spoke volumes for the advancement of knowledge and the liberal sentiments of the king. | He pone out to them, that whereas formerly the hiefs alone had made the laws of the land, the pre- | | i sent constitution was the work of the people them- selves, through their representatives in the Legisla- | tare; and as he had surrendered to them the law | making power, he exhorted them to use it with wis- dom, pradence, and moderation, for upon themselves Gree henceforth the prosperity and improvement of the country. THE WHALING FLEET— THE PROGRE f [From the Polynesian, December 11.] We take great pleasure in calling the especial at- tention of our readers to the very full report of the whaling fleet that has visited these islands the pre- sent season, which has been compiled with great care and much labor by Mr. Whitney, from official and other sources of information to which he has had access. [See Herap marine news for the latest.] From the whaling fleet, a large proportion of the i of the islands is derived, and the money set in circulation by it, in discharging and shipping men, repairing and recruiting, forms the basis of the busi- ness prosperity of the whole group. From the tables referred to, owners at home will | also learn the whereabouts of their ships, the suc- | cess which has attended them, and when and where they have sailed, or expect to sail, on leaving our ports. In fact, these reports are so full that we have nothing to add to render them complete, except to | remark, that since they were publis’ ed in a circular form for the mail, the ship Abraham H. Howland, which was then at anchor outside, has gone ashore, and is a complete wreck. She had on board 55 bbls. spm. oil, 1,600 whale, but had shipped her bone, amounting to 25,000 lbs. She was fifteen months ALTH OF THE OCEAN— At will be seen by reference to the List that 200 ships have visited the port of Honolulu, 101 the port of Labaina, and 38 the port of Hilo—339 at all the ports; but as many of these ships touched at all three of the , We find that but 275 different ships have touched at the islands this fall.

In estimating the value of these cargoes, it will be oe that we bave used figures at least one-third less the actual value of the various products in the dome market, which will allow a wide margin for aye and other charges home, losses, commis- Ds, XC. The number of seamen attached to these 275 ships igprobably full 10,000, besides masters and mates. he average value of the past season's catch, to | h of the 271 right whalers, is $23,546 75. ‘ite national ‘ter of these ships is as fol- | 's :—American, 258; French, 10; Bremen, 4; English, Chilian, and Hawaiian, each one. ‘rom the facts above brought to view, we are warranted in the conclusion that a more successful | whaling season has never crowned that branch of | business, since the ‘‘inconsiderable villages or ham- Icta”’ of New Bedford, Nantucket, Fair Haven, New | London, &c., commenced operations in delving for | the wealth of the ocean. The year 1850 was 4 re- markabte one for success in the whaling busine: brt eo far as these islands are concerned, the follow- ing figures show greatly in fayor of 1552. From the custom house statistics of that year we find that the number of vessels at Lahaina and Ho- nolulu was 237; but many of these touched at both , and the number of ships cannot be known the report, but the amount of oil apd bone is thus stated 18,108 bbls | | Balance in favor of 1852............ E | In connection with this subject it is but di | port of Honolulu to say, that it affords facilities for | whalers to recruit, discharge and ship crews, tran- ship their cargoes and transact their general busi- | ness, altogether superior to any other port in the | Pacific ocean. We do not make this assertion be- | cause we wish to depreciate other ports to our own advantage; but with the fall fconvic- | tion of its truth, and from having heard the remark often made by captains of ships themselves, | who have had from ten to twenty-five years experi- | ence in the whaling business in this ocean. In addi- | tion to the above enumerated advantages, we can | also mention the despatch and regularity of the mails between these islands and the United States, England and France. Were the owners of ships and the friends of persons on board but properly inform- ed ef the facts in this respect, they could easily time their correspondence so as almost certainly to meet | the arrival of their ships and friends at the islands, with but little delay. Our mails from New York are rarely over sixty days in coming through, and some- times they reach here in less than cas Letters, therefore, despatched from l’rance, England and the Atlantic States, so as to come in the New York mails of July and wo peat will be seasonable for the fall fleet, and gratify many a longing desire in the whal- | ing fleet touches in here during that season. | Postage is now so low that no obstacle exists, in this respect, to the gratification of a very strong desire in many thousands of minds to hear from home.

VALBNTINE’S DAY. It is scarcely necessary for us to announce that this is St. Valentine’s Day, for a crowd of young'ladies gatherod around every stationer’s store in the Bowery, Chatham and Nassau streets, each pointing at the valentine among the many hundreds displayed in the windows, that will | suit her best, is a sure sign that the day for sending amatory missives has arrived. Amongst all the cus- | toms, rites, and festivals, which are held sacred by civil. ized nations, “ St. Valentine’s Day” possesses peculiar interest, for it is the “ lover’s holiday,” and is regarded by al’ nations ae devoted to ‘fun, frolic, and earnest.” Instead of the lover “ sighing like furnace, and with a woeful ballad made to his mistress’ eyebrow,” he re- sumes his courage on this annual day, and sends to his | fair inamorata @ billet doux redolent with scent and love. | No name is attached, but the lady generally infers aright as tothesender. This light skirmishing often leads to “ close engagements,” and of course the more pointed the sonnet, and the more elegant the embellishment, the sooner will the “general action” commence. On the other hand, the “lady fair,” in order to encourage a “ faint heart,” despatehes a valentine of most unequivo- cal meaning. Thus earnestness is often concealed under the of fun, But the ease is repeatedly reversed, and earnest love is nipped in the bud, absolutel to death. and ** young love's dream’? “| bel Such being the case, it is lentine’s Day”? i u in general, for Cupid, however, Valentine’s Day,” ways busy at work inciting neighbors by sending them sarcastic rh ‘The approach of * has been announced for a week past in e store window, for they valentines of all shapes, é miscellaneous character, th de. signs are of a most and the sonnets are of sm, and libel All the books of nm ransacked, for there are portr idesses wor shipped by the ancients, and the attributes of each are denoted dist sonnets placed under the illus- trations are, of course, pertinent to the subject, and con- tain very meaning allusions ° are the serio. tragic, | the poetic, the romantic, the comic, the sarcastic, the impudent. and the libellous. ch a medley! There isa if ve species of imaginable talent. Here we have the most carefully fi line sketches. The one spe' of a high order shed pictures, and there out- | es betrays artistic excellence d the other combines humor with sketching abil ere are pictures of gods and por- | traits of butchers—scenes of love and of contention. Then there is the poetry, ranging “from the sublime to the | ridiculous.” It is written in in all sorts of stanzas, from the Spencerian to doggerel. Who the poets are is en- | tirely a matier of conjecture, but their being anonymous es, which i of these are intended to be as secret as possible. Thinkin, unknown poets, we may exclaiin with Gri ‘Many a flower is born to blush unseen And waste its fragrance on the desert air.’* But not alone are artists and poets concerned in the | manufacture of valentines; th are the printers and the fancy stationers, whose abilities are displayed in the | coloring and the shaping. For instance, the valentine may contain a rose which, being drawn out, liscovers a heart, which is meant to show the depth of affection en- tertained by the sender, There are also other pretty things | ofa like nature. The numbers of valentines displayed in the stores throughout the city is a poof that the “time honored” custom is still conserved, and # further proof is afforded in the fact of the number passing through the | post-office. Presient Prencs’s Visit To New Yors.—The following | letter bas been sent to New York, in reply to the inyita- tion of the authorities:— Coycorp, N. I, February 5, 1853, My Drar Sin:—I had the honor to receive your letter of | the 4th inst., this morning. and with it a copy of the pro- | ceedings of the city authorities of New York, inviting me | to accept the hospitalities of thecity, on my way to the | seat of government. j 1beg you to communicate to the Mayor, and the co-ordi- nate branches of the city government, for their marked kindness and proffered hospitality, my grateful acknow- | ledgments. Under other circumstances, it would haye been ex- | tremely pleasant to avail myself of the opportunity grace- | fully tendered, to exchange salutations with the citizens | of the great emporium ot our country, and to thank them for the decided manifestation of partial judgment with which, but a few weeks since, they were pleased to honor me. But, with a weight at my heart which has well nigh disqualified me for the discharge of pressing duties con- nected with their interests, 1 am sure they will hardly | expect my consent to anything like a public reeeption on my way to Washington. Suffering to some extent from | the want of usual health and elasticity, I need repose, | and I have full confidence that my friends will consider: ately accord to me, as far as practicable, seclusion. With much respect, your obedient servant. FRANK. PIERCE. Tre Weatin.—Axommer Fart or Sxow.—Contrary to the expectations of everybody, we had a fall of snew yes | terday At an early hour in'the morning it began to descend rapidly, and did not cease until ten o'clock A. M., at which time rain fell, and continued to do so until two o'clock P. M, when ‘the wind changed to the west, which was the means of changing the day from that of a wet to avery fine one. ‘The remainder of | the day was clear, and the sun shone again with all its brilliabey. The snow fell to the depth of two inches, but the combined influence of both the rain and sun soon | thawed it in such a manner that the walking was any- thing but pleasant. At ten o’clock last night the the: mometer at the Hrnatp office stood at 52 degrees abov zero. The side walks at this hour were very slipper caused by the rain which had fallen during the day freez on tiem, and no doubt many people sustained slight juries from falls Lecrorr or Twowas Fraxcs Myacmnen ins Evevexa.— | At Metropolitan Hall, this evening, a lecture will be given by Mr. Thomas Francis Meagher upon Grattan and 1782— the exa of the volunteers and the legislative independence of Ireland—one of the few bright spots in the dark pages | of her history.

He ran over aad endea- vored to break open the door, and falling, gave an alarm, when a large number of firemen attended, and upon enter- ing the house they found the rear part of the etore in flames. It was occupied by Mr. Charpentier as a gentle- man’s French furnishing and hosiery store, and from the costly nature of the stock, thore was considerable damage done, although the fire was soon extinguished. The da- mage is estimated at $3,500, Mr. C. bas an insurance. Captains Brennan, Ditchett, and other officers attended. Were it not for the timely exertion and alarm of Mr. | Keefe, there would have been a very extensive contiagra- | tion. | On Saturday evening, a fire broke out in the baking es- | tablishment No. 4 avenue A, and would have been rather a serious one, had not the fre department been early on the ground, who extinguished the flames before any mn- terial damage was effected. The woodwork of the store, | \ | | aad the stock, were somewhat damaged both by fire and | Fleed' water. Suockixe Accipent—Cartion To Persons vstvc Cam- PHEXE.—A melancholy accident, which may yet prove fatal, occurred about half-past 9 o'clock on Saturday eve- ning, by which a woman named Mrs. Brabur was burned in a frightful manner. On the above mentioned evening, she was trimming a campbene lamp, which fell out of her hands; the flames immediately ignited and set fire to her clothes, burning her body and arms in a shocking man- ner. She was immedistely conveyed to the City Hospital, where she now lies in a apeonay state. This is one of the many accidents which occur to persons who are care. less in the use of this dangerous article, and this catas- tropbe should be a warning to those who burn it, not to have any light near them while engaged in trimming cam. phene lamps. THe War oF 1812.—The survivors of the artillery and militia companies of this State, who served in the war, have called a meeting for this evening. of all their fellow- soldiers, with the descendants of those who perished, for the purpose of taking action so as to have the Bounty Tand nct—passed September 28, 1850—extended, so as | that one hundred and sixty acres may be granted for each claim.

He took possession of the ship as salvor, and was saving spars, &c., and making arrange- ments to get out the oil, when he was warned off by a no- tice from Capt Pease, The Polynesian says it was much to be regretted that he was molested in his endeavors to save property from the wreck, for with the force he could command, and he alone could command the men and means, he would have saved, as he asserts, all the oil from the ship while the weather was calm; but that the heavy weather which subsequently set in will cause her to go to pieces, and very little be saved. Banx DRacox, al San Francisco Jan 8, from Hong Kong, experienced Noy 27 4 severe gale from SSE to SW, with a tremendous sea, breaking at times entirely over the bark, and most of the time the deck. flooded with water, Had experienced very bad weather for the last 45 days; lost quarter boat, foreyard, and split sails; from Deo ith to 28th a continual gale from NE to E, in lat 40 N, long Br Brug Ewpurm—A card in the San Francisco Whig, | signed Joseph Emery, one of the crew of the bark Ork, | Capt Hutchings, arr there Jan 7 from Richmond, says that vessel fell in with the Br brig Emblem, from Halifax for Barbadoes, at 7 A M, (no date, lat, &e, given,) water logged, with colors union down, and standing along under her foresail; that the O lowered a boat and brought off the captain, supercargo, two mates, cook and & boy, in two trips; that the boat having been stove alongside on | returning the second time, Captain H. declined to wait for its repair, and stood on his course, leaving five of the Emblem’s erew on the wreck. Brig Mary, which left Bolinas Bay Jan 4, for San Fran- | cisco, with lumber, after proceeding twelve miles on her course ran on to a reef, about a mile from shore, and sunk in ton minutes. The passengers, captain, and crew, clung to the rigging. A schooner at ‘anchor half a mile off, attempted to launch two small boats to go to their assistance, but there was such a heavy sea that both at- tempts proved ineffectual. One of the boats, a small one, drifted to the wreck, and was secured, and the captain and one man went ashore and procured a large boat and sufficient help, with which they rescued their unfortunate oar: ey had remained in the water about four ‘ours. Sci Francisco, at San Francisco 9th ult, from Panama, had very severe weather on the passage; lost foretopmast, sails, &c; sprung the heads of fore and mainmasts; was off the Heads 14 days, in thick foggy weather. Scur Aurricas Cor, from Savannah for St Augustine, sprung aleak on the 28th, between Darien and St Simons, and though the hands were kept constantly at the pumps, all efforts to keep her free of water proved useless. A heavy sea was running all the time, and the wiad blowing freshly from the northeast. It was finally determined to beach her, but as she neared St Augusto bar, a heavy sea struck her, knecking her on her beam-ends, after which, though soon righted, she became unmanageable— the sea Washing over her all the time. The captain and all hands got ashore in the small host, and at 10 o'clock at night the echooner began to break up, and portions of the wreck floated into the harbor. e wreckers were unable to save a sixth part of her cargo, all of which was damaged. What was got from the wreck was sold at auc- tion, The captain lost all his books, papers, and $130, and the crew all their clothing.
