Interesting Geographical Intelligence, &e., &o, ko. Advices from Honolulu to tue 17th of August hays been received. Our files of the J’olynesian are to the 13th of that month, ‘The following is the report of the Commissioners of Public Health in Honolulu, for the week ending July 22: ‘The number of new cases uf stuallpox whieh have been reported during the past week, for the island of Owhu is 626; deaths reported are Z16. From the other islands, the new cases reported are 4'; deaths reported, 19. Total umber of cases reported, 2, Total number of deaths reported, $08. hole’ number of cases reported Curing the week ending July 28, for the island of Oahu, is 480; the number of deaths reported in the same time, is 219, Frei the other islands the uew cases are 54; deaths 26. The total number of cases reported is 2,886; deaths re- ported, 1,027. The total number of burials under the direction of the Commissioners, by the police and others, in Honolulu and vicinity, since June 26, is 66. Forty houses at Waikiki, and thirty on the Ewa side of Honolulu, more than two miles from the market, are being erected by “he Commissioners, under the direction of the Clerk of the Bureau of Public Laprovements. Whole number of cases reported for the week ending August 6, is 342; the number cf deaths reported in the same time is 87. From the other islands the new cases are 55; deaths, 7. ‘ibe total number of cases reported is 5,153; total mumber of deaths, 11% For the week cases of small pox Which have been reported during the st week, for the island of Oulu, is 363; the number of Seathe reported in sau 33, From the other islands no reports have b: ived during the past ek, Tine to:al number of casos reported is 3,546.

Also four cases of yarivloid, two of whom have been discharged well, and two are still im the hospital. From Kawailue, we lear that the deaths from small pox have augmented to tweuty three, out of a pepulation of about fifty. In the districts of Kipahulu and Hanna, at the east end of Maui, small pox has beeu introduced, and is spreading. Other districts in that part sf the island are yet unpro- tected. We have just heard from Hilo. The small pox was ravaging at two pots of the district. But there was none within six miles of Filo bay and all the people were vaccinate The Argus the opposition paper in Honolulu has stop- hues of Mr. Fornander, its editor. He is down with the »mall pox, which we much regret. lie has also ean ailiieted by the satae disease, in the death of his father and mother in-law, and the sick- ness of his own daughter, wh. has recovered, It appears that evea vaccination will not protect the enervated Kanakas from di #. The marshal of Honolulu reports that he had found about seven-eighths of those attacked had been vaccinated. He then presented a paper giving the number of persons taken with the disease who been vaccinated, and number cured. We give only a summary :—Whole ber vaccinated taken sick, 477; whole number cured, 2 Benj. F. Angell has been vificislly received a3 Consul of the United States at Honolulu. The Polynesian says:—We learn that the wheat crop on Fast Maui has been harvested, and turns out scme 2,000 bushels of most excelient quality, We understand that most of the crops this ) be reserved for seed, and ‘that 20,000 bushels aye anti ted as the yield of 1854. Al kinds of improved agricultural implements, including @ reaping machine, fanning wills, cradles, seed-planters, &e., have been recently reveived in the islands. A grist: mill is on the way. We are much gratified with the efforts making to in- crease our productions, not ouly ia the matter cf wheat, |, in consequence of th corn, onts, &e., but in the fact that new sugar-aills, steam engines and other facilities are fast multiplying for increasing the sugar crop of the islands. Considerable capital is being thus employed, but we have not a doabt that it will not pay well, besides farnishing much employ. ment for coasters, laborers, mechanics ahd merchants. Mr. D. M. Weston has rcei and is about erecting in Honolulu, a complete furnace turning lathe, &e., with a steam engine to be ued in the establishment. ‘This is locked upon asaa in portant acquisition, as it will enabie those where machinery may be broken to have it «1, OF new castings mmwie without sending all the way oston.

AIndignation of the People against the Min- Asters. At the date of our las advices, it will be recollected we had intelligence that a meeting of the citizens was called to petition the King for the dismissal of his Ministers of Finance and Public Ivstruc , Who had become exceed- ingly ebuoxius to the people. The folowing is a copy of ‘die handbill containing this call:— ‘Tar Tok tas Come—Kuer rie Batt ty Motiox.—A meet- ing of the citizens of Honolulu tavorable to the dismissal from office of G. P. Judd and Richard Armstrong, Sfinis- ters of Finance and Publie Instruction, will be held at the Court House, in Honolulu, to-night, at 744 o’elock, to discuss the resolutions offered last night by Geooge A. Lathrop. “Liberty of speech is the birthright of free- men.” By order of committee of ‘ INDEPENDENT CITIZENS. Honoxrir, July 20, 1853. In pursvance of this call a large meeting of the foreign residents of Honolulu was called, at which the following highly important proceedings took place. As the gov- ernment had obtained control of the only two presses in | the Islands, anc refused to allow the publication of the | ‘oceedings, they were brought over to us by Capt. Pen- | low, one of the Vice Presidents of the meeting, that | they might receive full publicity. GREAT MEETING OF THE CITIZENS. In pursuance of the above call, the foreign residents of the city of Honclulu assembled’ at the Court House, on the evening of July 20th, and organized the meeting’ by electing the following officers, viz.:— Dr, Wesley Neweomb, President: Capt. John Meek, Capt. David Pearce Penhallow, Vice Presidents; William Ladd, C. H. Lewers, Secretaries. Dr. George A. Lathrop stated the objects of the meet- ing, insisting upon the right of free discussion, which had been cut off the previous evening, and in support of his position read the third and fourth artieles of the consti- tution of the Hawaiian Islands, to wit:— ‘Art. 8, All men way freely speak, write, and publish their sentiments on all subjects, ony pen for the abuse of that right; ant no law 5) passed to re- Strain or abridge the liberty of speech or of the press. “Art. 4. All men shall have the right in an orderly and peaceable manner to assemble, without arms, to consult upon the common good; give instructions to their repre- sentatives; and to petition the king or the Legislature for a redress of He then introduced a series of regolutions, which were ably supported by Mesars. J. D. Blair, Capt. A. J. McDuitie, Dr-W. Newcomb, and Dr. J. Mott Smith, aod unanimous ly adopted. The following are the resolutions offered by Dr. La- throp — ‘Whereas, ‘The position of the Sandwich Islands in the Pacific Ocean most render them of very great importance, in a commercial point of view at least, and they would, under wholesome, judi:ious and Itberal goveramental policy. at no distant day, become rich in the various pro- juctions of their soil, induential in the expansion of their trade and commerce, and their citizens prosperous, ) ante of that theeatens in a short time to sweep of a \ rge portion of the inhabitants of these islands, anuihi late their trade and commerce, and thereby bring distress, | ruin, and absolute want upon'the citizens, it is motu | reasonable to osk the dismissal of said ministers, who by | their criminal, seldsh and wilful neglect, have brought | this frigh(ful Curse upon us. For even the plea of ignor- | ance cannot be made im their defence, as the pub) well aware that they were warned in season—nay, even | urged and entreated to use the only means by which pro- | tection could be given to the people. But, as the sum less than two housand easy —_ haz ‘7 yah. 4 cinate and p otect the people of this island, y | Snendation Por proposal to the physicians passed for | naught. Resolved, That a committee be appointed by the Prosi- dent, to propare a petition to his Majesty, praying that he will gratify the most earoest hope and desire of the people, and contribute to their happiness and prosperity, by dismissing from office G. P. Judd and Richard Aru’ strong, the present Ministers of Finance and Public In- struction, J.D. Blair having been appointed to prepare a petition | to his Majesty Kamehameha II. submitted the following, hich was uianimously adopted, and over one hundred ignatures wore imnsnedlisety auiaiaan tn the meeting :-— PETITION TO HIS MAJHSTY KAMEHAMEHA U1, We, the undersigned, citizens of the Sandwich Islané s, rt of whom are most loyal and dutiful subjects of your Tinjesty, and others, residents and denizens of your Most Gracious Majesty's kingdom. would earnestly and respect- fully represent to your Majesty, that we entertain for you as a man the warmest sentiments of esteem and respect; for you as the lawful sovereign of this kingdom, feelings of the most loyal duty amd respectful reverence, and for | those noble and generous qualities of the heart that | have so eminently characterized your Majesty, the cor- dial admiration of our hearts can’only be felt—never ex- pressed. Your petitioners would further most respectfully repre sent to your Majesty that we are law abiding subjects, citizens and denizens of your Majesty’s Kingdom, that we will ever be sicbmissive to aud supporters of all laws made in conformity with the Constitution, and cheerfully sub- mit to perform all obligations properly due from a free and Christian people to their lawful sovereign. Your petitioners would further most respectfully repre- sent fo sour Majesty that the interests of all of us are largely, and many of us solely, identified with the Ha- wailan’ Islan at the prosperity, political advance: ment, and ness of your kingdom, is the sincere and earnest desire of our hearts, We advance with its ad- vancement and are prosperous in its prosperity. ‘he destinies of us all are more or less united with the desti- nies of these islands, As a nation is, so are the people. and as national wealth, greatness and dignity are shared by the people individually, so also must they re in the poverty, insignificance and depreciation of ational character.”'It is for these reasons, sawell as the sentiments of personal regard and esteem we entertain for your Majesty, that we so earnestly desire that the dignity snd authority of your Majesty should be, main- tained, the wealth, commerce and prosperity of the na- tion augmented snd steadily advanced, and that peace and happiness may reign throughout your Majesty's do- | minions, Your petitioners would further most respectfully re} sent to your Majesty, that the history of all ages illus- trates the truth, that no monarch, however good and great, in his own person, can make his government re- spected, or hix people happy, when surrounded by perni- cious councillors, The bappiness of a people is in the wisdom of the government, and the strength of the go- vernment is in the trust and confidence of the people. = | darmp enough to | daz0p enoug Your petitioners would further represent to your Majes- | tr, that aberta ing: as we do, the Righert consideration | jesty, the unprejudiced convictions of our at your Majesty has, as your confiden- | persons undeserving the trust and confi- eople. and highly prejudicial to the best | interests of your Majesty’s government. | That in the humble opinion of your petitioners, the | public good and the welfare of your Mejesty’s people would be greatly promoted, and the peace and harmony of the county secured, by the dismissal from office of G P. Judd ard Richard Armstrong, Ministers of Einance and Public Instruction. | Their inefficiency and misdeeds may be artfully con- cealed from your Majesty, but their selfish cupidity, po- litical imbecility, and malfeasance in office, are well known and grievously felt by your people. If the public good made subservient to personal ag- grandizement, the use of official and arbitrary power to gratify personal malice, inefficiency and neglect in the discharge of ofticial duties, and the shameful betrayal of | the trust of a confiding and unfortunate people, merit | public reprobation, and the withdrawal of the trust con- fided to them, then do they ‘The public good avd public feeling urgently demand their dismissal. We earnestly and respectfully petitien that it may be done, and not only we, but the almost universal ery is that they may be no longer hold places in your Ma- jesty’s confidence, or of national trust. Could the voices be heard of those thousands of your Majesty’s people, who have recently been so suddenly swept from time into an awful eternity through the criminal parsimony and neglect of these Ministers, they woald ery night and day in the ears of your Majesty, to reprove and in some mea- sure avenge the wrong done your people, by dismissing . such faithless Ministers from your Majesty's councils. The bodies of hundveds of your Maje: humbleand faithful subjects lie @ld and dead, and their tongues are silent in the grave, but the silence of those graves conveys a lan- | guage more impressive than the speech of tongues, and admonishes your Majesty that the wrongs of your people should still live in the memory of your Majesty, though they have away forever. Your petitioners havea full and abiding confidence in the justice and firmness of your Majesty, and indulge the not unreasonable hope that your Majesty will hear the livi 1 remember the dead, and so respond to this pe- tition as to bring peace, happiness, prosperity, and unity to your now distracted and suffering people. On motion of Capt. McDuffie, seconded by Dr. Lathrop, it was unanimously decided that a committee af thirteen be appointed by the President, to procure signatures to the petition, and that when this meeting adjourn it ad- journs to meet again at the call of the committee of thir- tecn. ‘The following persons were appointed to constitute the committee of thirteen, J.

Mr. H. read an extract from the petition, to which ") obisined access in the office of the Minister of the Inte- rior, and then intimated that an idea of treason or re- yolution was involved in those proceedings. Mr. Blair replied wita much effect to Mr. H., and charged him with being the first to introduce revolution- ary or treasonable ideas or designs, and also of having improper possesmon of an extract from the petition. A. bates District Attorney, (and brother-in-law of G.P. Judd,) during » period of thirty-five minutes made # variety of remarks, pag to screen and defend the obnoxious ministers, to divert the attention and pur- of the , and to prevent the adoption of the rerdlutions, lie then descended to indulge in some un- gentlemanly personal remarks respecting all the officers of the meeting, and also some of the speakers and mem- bers of the Committee of Thirteen. J. M. Smith being then called upon, in the course of his pungent observations, charged home upon certain minis- ters certain offensive acts which came to his knowledge while acting in the last Legislature. The resolutions having been duly seconded and ably supported were enthusiastically adopted, upon which the meeting adjourned. The Island of Lanai. [From the Polynesian, August 6.) The island of Lanai is said in the geographies to be seventeen miles long and eight or nine wide, which is proba- bly not far from the truth. There is a narrow belt of flat land on the shore, made by the wash from the mountains and sand from the sen mixed, and varying from a few rods to half a mile in width, extending round the east side of the isiand, and perhaps all round, exeept the precipitoas is of the south end. This isa valaable part of the island, being very rich, and well repaying cultivation with rich crops of melons, sweet potatoes, synashes, &c. There ix als a good anchorage here for vessels, It is not, however, well watered, ax is the case with most of the islands, there being only one nent stream on the island, viz., that of the great valley of Maunalei, which opens to’ the northeast, directly facing Kaluaapa on i ‘The land rises with an escent more or less steep from this belt all around the island, and ts at first dry and rocky, with abundance of thatching pili. up it becomes smoother, and patches of bushes appear, and vegetation generally is more luxuriant. Higher up omall teees grow, and on the very top of the island tim- ber is found fer good sized native houses, In ceneral, however, the hear a relation in size to the isdand, and it is not uncommon to see groves of mamane, with trunks no thicker than your finger, and only three or four feet high. On th st sile th» land rises aninterrupted- to the top of t untain, which is high enough and greeably cool. But on the west side scent is interrupted for the whole length of the island by a remarkable plain, two or three miles wide, about A wile or two + three-quarters of the way up, having its west side slightly elevated, and having no visible outlet in any direction to the sea. All this plain appears to be very ricb, being covered with rank grass, weeds and bushes, ‘and would make first rate cane land, ‘though nearly destitute of water. The south end of this plain is warm, being under the lee of the high land to the east, and sheltered from the trade winds, Dut the north part is somewhat bleak and cold, Sweet potatoes are raised in all parts of this plain. Towards the east side of this plain the land rises abruptly some 200 or 300 feet and again spreads off ina table land much cat up by ravines till it reaches the mountains, a mile of so dis- tant. Thence the mountains rise abruptly in ridges cover- ed with small wood, with small streams in the gulches part of the year. ‘Few of these streams appear orer to emerge from the table land, except during floods, when they run out into the pliin, and seem to sink into the earth. There is cultivation also high up on the eastern slope of the island, and houses also. ‘The whole island, as may’be seen in sailing around i cut up with ravines much as the other islands are, the exception of the plain above meationed. The grea ravine of Maunalei, would ‘ake high rank on any of the iacds. Water karo is raixed in it, tham whieh none is sweeter. ith it Marriages and Deaths. BIRTH.

At Honolulu, on the 16th July, Malcolm MeLean, a na- tive of Edinburg, Scotland, aged about 40 years. ‘On the 27th July, Joshua Kryder, a native of Long Island, U. 8., aged 24 years. ‘On the 2d August, William Bragg, a native of Pennsyl- yaniasU. 8. aged 24 yeara, Mr. B. has been for soine time past a policeman of Honolulu, and we are informed by one who is best qaaliied to give an opinion on the sub- ject, that he was a faithful and honest officer in the dis- charge of his duties. As a policeman, in the perform- ance of arduous labors among the sick, he contracted the disease of which he died. | Being the only child of a widowed mother, his friends will be consoled with the fact, that although he died among strangers, he enjoyed all the medical and other attendance that could be be- stowed. : Religious Intelligence. SERMON BY THE REV. JOHN SINCLAIR, ARCHDEACON OF MIDDLESEX, ENGLAND. Yesterday morning the Rey. John Sinclair, Archdeacon of Middiesex, England, who is now in this city as a mem- ber of the delegation sent from England by the Society for the Propagaticn of the Gospel, belonging to the Episcopal Church in that country, to the American Board of Foreign Missions of the same religious denomination, preached a discourse in St, Paul’s Episcopal Church. ‘The following was the text, 26th psalm, 8th verse: Lord, I have loved the habitation of thy house, and the place where thine honor dwelleth. The pious sentiment here expressed is far from being so gereral, even among those who call themselves Christians, asitcught to be. It is evident, from the words of the text, that the Psalmist David, in going to the house of God, was not performing a mere formal ceremony, but that his heart and soul were absorbed io the holy work. He Icved the habitation of God’s house. A very natural question here arises, namely, how far Christians sympa- thise with the holy David. When we consider the urgency with which God enjoins us to preserve his ordinances, we should not expect to see them neglected in a Christian land; but we have cause to fear that the greater part of the population here as well as elsewhere do not in general attend suficiently to them. Of those who do w tend to his religious ordinances, how many absent themselves in mind so that their bodily presence is of no importance, evincing a disposition opposite to that of David, which in: volves a discrepancy, for the words of the text are ex- essed by them at their devotions. This distaste for re- gious ordinar ces arises from the corruption of human na- ture andits alienation from God. In the case of public wor- ship there is a great prevailing ignoran-e among the poor and uneducatec dupes; but it is not confined tothem alone, for many from whom better things might be expected aro quite unacquai ated with the liturgy of the Church. It is much to be regretted that there is not more done on the part of one elass to ailord instruction, and on the other to receive it, Although the text refers to congregational worthip, I shall not confine myself 10 that alone, but in- clude among the ordinances of God mediation on heavenly things, the reading of God’s holy word, and private Again, I observe His religious ordinances when in faith t th remarked oa the reluctance of religious ordinances, I will now advert that should ind: e this indispensable duty. we are taught by the light of nature to hold communion with him, and if the inquiry into the phenomena of na- tural science is so ennobling a pursuit, how much greater is the contemplation of him in whom all the sublimity of nature has its origin. Let us recollect that he is omni- prerent, omniscient, and able to attend to ea th individual object of his care. But we are not left unaided to the in- ferences of reason alone, for He encourages, exhorts, and commands us to approach him, declaring that He is ready to hear us. The promise of oar Lord is to the same effect: “Where two or three are gathered to- ether in my name, there will I be in the midst of them.” Ye have, therefore, a mediator and an advocate to plead ' for us, and so much good is considered of prayer that it is made the condition of obtaining what we ask for, as mentioned by ghe prophet Ezokiel. “It is a privilege to be permitted to ch God, the eternal King, and the commandment to pray proceeds from an authority indis- putable, and to neglect doing so is the extreme of folly and stubbornness, He is not only our Creator, but our bene- factor and Redeemer. In the instance of a human bene factor to avoid him, to keep aloof from Him, to be indiffer- ent towards Him, and to be without that kindly feeling of loving to_be in His presence, would expose us to tho re- proach of selfishness and ingratitude. So itis with God; an unthankful selfish spirit shows itself in the impious sentiment—depart from us for we wish not the knowledge of Thy principles. To a mind rightly constituted it is Gelightful to join in the devout ejaculation of the Psalm- ist: “And ‘I have loved the habitation of | thy house, and the place where thine honor dwelleth.” We propose, secondvy, to examine the ordinance #0 far as concerns our neighbers, for benefits will result_to him from our interference by prayer in his behalf. The fer- vent prayer of a righteous man, says St. James, availeth much. intercession the most effectual is that of ious parents for their children. St. Paul, in one of his Spistles, mentions several friends of whom he made men- tion in his private prayers. He elsewhere exhorts his renders to pray for allmen, as does also our blessed Lord, who enjoins to pray for those who revile and persecute you. The great advantage to our neighbor from our prayer in his behalf is the blersing of God; but he is also & gainer by our example. There is no necessity, however, for Vharisaical display. Oar devotions should not be exhibited in public, but we ought rather to follow the injunction of the Lord—‘To pry in secret.” At the same time our neighbor, when he finds that we are given to prayer, may be disposed to inquire why he should debar himself from the same enjoyment, and forego a gratification so ennobling in itself—why he should be more estranged thsn we are—why he also should not put in his claim to the Divine protection, and remain un- blessed when the highest blessings of all may be secured? In the ease of public worship, our exainple is most bene- ficial; here it must exert an influence for good or for evil. By this we give parti -ular evidence whether we worship God oF not, and its influence will be felt accordiag to our work and intelligence. Even the poorest and mest obscure man {s not entitled to say, “it is indifferent to my neighbor whether I go to the house of God or not. Thurt no one but myself.” This excuse would do more mischief than is supposed. | It dispenses the poor from hearing the werd of God, and leaves to the rich not only all the advantages of this world but the prospects of ancther. The opinions and habits of every nation are made up from those of individuals, and if it is bad in the poor, huw much worse does the rich man sin against his neighbor by neglecting the religious ordinances! Suspi- cions are aroused that nothing is gained by public worship, and such evil surmises produce a baaeful effect. The spirit of defeetion becomes contagious, other worshippera fall off, and it is difficult to describe the blight that may oversprend whole parishes and neighborhoods from the bad example of those renowned for rank, genius or learning. But to give a good example is not the only reason why we should “attend | publie | wor- ship; it is likewise to be attended for our own sake. If we allow it to be supposed that it is only for decent eeagp etg the idea of a whole con, tion only meet be examples to one ancther, it would be absurd. It must be wel understood that the assembly is met together for rautual benefit. Thus we find that as in the worship of Mammon, where men meet together for their own private benefit, o it is the same in the house of God. If, throughout ‘the whole th and breadth of this Christian land, if in all the Parishes of this great republic, the great body of the peo- ple were to be assembled together morning and ¢vening in the sincere, devout, and bumble epirit to which our Iitugry gives utierance, it would be difficult to express the blessings, temporal and spiritual, that would be poured forth upon us. It is a solemn inquiry how far each of you has promoted or hindered so glorious a consumma tion. Let us now consider those motives that have influ- ence upon ourselves. By public and private prayer evils are averted that would have come upon us, and things are obtained. Not only the observance of religious ordinances is needful to be able tolave a taste for them, ‘ut devotional habits and feelings are necessary to render us suitable for the enjoyments of heaven.— Like us, it is aid of Enoch, who walked with God upon earth, and God carried him up to heaven without seeing desth. ur Lord is an example of thie--he attended cmstantly the worship and ordinances of the synagogue, as instanced in the Feast of the Pass- over. Tet there be in you the same mind as in Christ Jesus, whoxe disciples followed in the footsteps of their Master, and ineuleated the necessity of the obligations of prayer in their exhortations. If any one feels a dislike for prayer, he cannot be fit for a future sta ness, Tt may be his intention to repent, ai ciled to God ‘before he , but he does not appreciate the alarming difficulty of fullilling that intention. No doubt, upon bis deathbed he will be conscience stricken and diamayed, ready to promise everything; he will ery earnestly for mercy, and engage, in the event of recovery, to attend to his religious ordinances, public and private. But this dread of gree - not feeling God. It does not impl thy with the devont feeling exprossed by the Pratnivt. A dying man pm A wee the necessity of such @ thing, but if 1t docs not spring from the heart the table of the Lord and receive its | us to attend to | With reference to God himself, j stern necessity of attending to religious ordinances may only lead to grvater aversion. Let ns examine in this re- spect the practice of the world, You do not there, if you wish to acquire an art, as that of painting, delay its study until your eyes are dimmed by age; or of unisic until your ears are obtuse to the sense of hearing; nor the love of poetry until the ardor of youth has passed away. Much time, much practice and experience, with the choicest cbjects in each of these departments, is indispensable. ‘Ts spiritual affairs, agd in the refine nent of the soul, a simi- lar course of action is required. To obtain a delight of communion with God we must have récourse to the means for which we are adapted. We must meditate upon God, study his character and perfection, and learn to see how every excel In order to form a lence is there combined. due estimate of tke necessity of religious ordinances must add to this, that to pray is a privilege as well anty, and that the Book of God is the charter of an eter- nal heritage——that of all subjects which can employ the human faculties, the most sublime and absorbing are re- | demption, retribution, and immortality.
