KING KALAKAUA

TOUR ROUND THE WORLD.

A 9K$fCt

ITSTTRODUOTIOlSr

As the People of the Hawaiian Kingdom await with an
affectionately loyal interest the return of their Sovereign from
his tour round the world, it was to meet the expectation of
the hour, that this slight sketch, or outline of His Majesty's
travel was prepared; to be distributed on the day of the
King's return to his capital, so that not only the Hawaiian
resident, eager to recall to mind, the particulars of the royal
journey, but also the stranger who might happen in our
midst, should have in compact form, information of the
King's movements abroad, and of the important objects,
which animated a patriotic Hawaiian Chief to undertake the
gtaat journey.

About one year ago, the King's health had been unfavora.
bly affected; and it was manifest, that a pleasant change, and
complete relief from the cares of State, were necessary to
restore His Majesty to his wonted vigor and healthful tone.
But, King Kalakaua, more alive to the interests of his State,
than to the care of his person, would not consent to go abroad
merely as an invalid tourist; but determined that his journey
should be made subservient to the welfare of his Kingdom;
and he undertook the arduous tour chiefly with a view to
promote the re-population of his realm.

King Kalakaua is the first and only Monarch who has
made the tour of the world; and his journey was undertaken
for the greatest and noblest purpose, that could animate a
King. Looking to ancient times, we find a King of Ithaca
who undertook an expedition to settle a point of honor, that
affected his neighbor; or an Alexander who marched through
Asia to leave a track of desolation behind; and in modern
times, we see an adventuring Charles of Sweden, while
madly seeking to destroy his neighbors, meet with his own
destruction; or a Shah of Persia, traveling to squander bar-
baric wealth, and to display barbaric tastes; or an Emperor
of Brazil, an enlightened and humaue man; but who goes
abroad to attend scientific congresses and gratify his taste for
scientific lore; whereas our Hawaiian King, — our enlightened
and humane Pacific Monarch, goes abroad solely for the pur-
pose of benefitting his Kingdom, to promote the welfare of
his people; and to make good the noble motto, and device,
proclaimed at his accession, — "Hooulu Lahui!" — Increase
the Nation !

KllSra KALAKAUA,

Whose Kingdom comprises the Hawaiian Archipelago ; also
Palmyra, Cornwallis, and other islands of the central Pacific,
ascended the Throne, February 12th, 1874, and is the
seventh Hawaiian monarch, since Kamehameha the Con.
queror organized the Kingdom. His Majesty was born No.
vember 16, 1836, and is now in the forty -fifth year of his age
and in the eighth of his reign. His Majesty received an excel-*
lent scholastic education in the Royal School, superintended
by Rev. Mr. and Mrs. Cooke of the American Mission, in com-
pany with the late Kings Kamehameha 1 V. and V., King Lu-
nalilo, Her Majesty Queen Dowager Emma, and other Princes
and Princesses of the Kingdom. On leaving scfcool, the young

/ *■

Prince David Kalakaua was trained in military exercises.
He received a commission as lieutenant of the King's Guard
in 1852, was promoted Captain and Major on the accession of
Kamehameha IV., and became Colonel and Chief of Staff,
under Kamehameha V. His Majesty also filled the positions
of Military Secretary and Lord Chamberlain, during the
reigns of Kamehameha IV. and V. He was also member of
the Privy Council of State, and hereditary Noble, or Alii of
the House of Nobles. He ascended the Hawaiian Throne on
the demise of King Lunalilo, in 1874 ; His Majesty speaks
the English language with perfect purity, and has the style
and manner of a highly cultivated gentleman. His Majesty
is a very dilligent student, and has studiously perused the
works of many modern thinkers of great eminence ; and as
his tastes are decidedly military, His Majesty has a collec-
tion of military works, remarkable for variety and extent.

His Majesty, by invitation of the American Government,
visited the United States in 1875. The Reciprocity Treaty
of mutual advantage to the two countries was the result of
the royal visit.

KING KALAKAUA'S BOAST.

O'er land and sea I've made my way

To farthest Ind, and great Cathay;

Beached Afric's shores, and Europe's strand;

And met the mighty of every land.

And as I stood by each sovereign's Bide,

Who ruled his realm with a royal pride,

I felt how small my sway, — and weak: —

My throne based on a mere volcanic peak, —

Where millions do these Kings obey,

Some thousands only own my sway.

And yet I feel that I may boast,

Some good within my sea-bound coast,

Richer than any of my grander peers.

That I within my realm need have no fears: —

May mingle with my people without dread;

No danger fear for my unguarded head,

And boast a treasure, sent me from above

That I have indeed, my people's love.

FAREWELL TO THE KING IN HIS

CAPITAL.

A deep feeling of anxiety and interest pervaded the com-
munity on the eve of the departure, of the King, and all
classes and races strove to outvie each other in their
expressions of good-will and affection, in bidding adieu to
His Majesty. The loyal expression of the most intelligent
foreign sentiment was manifested at the state dinner on Friday
13th Jan.; and on Sunday, the 16th the day was made memor-
able by an outpouring of affectionate adieux from His Majes-
ty's native people. At the Catholic Cathedral High Mass
was celebrated. The church was thronged with high officialsj
diplomatic attaches, and private citizens from every walk in
life. The good Sisters of the Sacred Heart, preceded by
their pupils, joined in this bon voyage to the King. The choir,
reenforced for the occasion, rendered the selected music with
tenderness and power. Monseigneur Bishop Louis Maigret
with all the Fathers and Brothers of the order were present.

•

After the sermon, the King with his escort and the Fathers,
passed into the court-yard under an elevated alcove, when the
following address was read to His Majesty by the Horn God-
frey Rhodes:
To Sis Majesty the King?

Sire: — We, your loyal and faithful subjects, are members
of the Holy Catholic Church established in your Kingdom.
And we, inspired by the uniform teachings of our Holy Re-
ligion, are imbued with a spirit of steadfast loyalty to your
Majesty's person; as being appointed by Divine decree to the
Sovereignty of the Hawaiian Islands; and when we receive
assurances from your Majesty's lips of a contemplated purpose
of travel in distant countries, even to the most distant, and to
make a circuit of the Globe, we, in the spirit of faithful sub-
jects, accept your Royal purpose, and are ready to unite in
pravers to Almighty God to speed you on your way, and to pre-
2

serve you iu health 'till you return to your people. At the
same time, prompted by our love to your Royal person, we
feel constrained to say that your Majesty's departure at this
time on so long a journey awakens our deep anxieties. We
would be glad to have better assurances that your Majesty's
safety and dignity abroad are fully provided for; and
that the peace of the Kingdom will be fully assured during
the absence of the King.

God save your Majesty.

Some words of warm adieu were uttered by native speak-
ers. Enthusiasm, affection, and loyalty stirred the vast mul-
titude, and plainly moved the heart of the King. Over one
thousand people were present at the Cathedral.

AT KAWAIAHAO.

The old Stone Mission Church, a large audience assembled
in the evening. The church was crowded to it's utmost ca-
pacity, and a warm and sympathetic feeling pervaded this
mass of people, assembled to invoke the blessing of Almighty
God in behalf of their King, about to take a long and per-
haps a perilous journey. Their Majesties the King and Queen
were present, also II. R. H. the Princess Liliuokalani, and
other members of the Royal family.

The Rev. H. H. Parker opened the service of the evening
with prayer, and after a melodious chant by a sweet-toned
choir, His Majesty rose in his seat, and speaking of his in-
tended departure, gave utterance to gracious words of hope
and affection to his people; and he commended his royal sis-
er, the Princess Liliuokalani to their generous and loyal care
and support, to enable her to carry on satisfactorily the Gov-
ernment of the Kingdom during his absence. The words of
His Majesty were received with warm and tender expressions
of aloha and adieu.

At the conclusion of the King's remarks, the Hon. Noble

Kapena rose to reply —

"We have heard our King tell us this evening afoout his
intended visit abroad. He spoke to you from the same place
six years ago, when he went before to visit America. It is
true the King goes but for the good of his people, to make

the country richer by getting more capita] and people to
come this way. See the result of his visit to America — be-
fore he went natives were receiving but 25 cents per day, now
see what they get, $2. 50 and 93.00 per day. This is the
King's work. New houses, ships, railroads, and every new
enterprise are largely due to the King's visit abroad. But
all this wealth is of no use if there is to be only one kauna 9 a
mere handful of us left. So the King this time takes with
him a Commissioner to enquire into and bring other people
of brown skins here to re-people these isles. The King him-
self would be only so in name if he had no people to rule.
The King will not rest until his hope of re-peopling these
isles has been fulfilled. Let no one have any little feeling of
jealousy about the King's going. Let no one be envious.
The King goes to see how the great nations of the earth
govern and rule their people, and it is well. It does not do
to always remain in the dark. The great nations now look
with respect on this little Kingdom and will have still more,
when they see our King traveling among them for informa-
tion to benefit his people, Let us all pray every day for the
King's health, and safe return to his people."

MIDNIGHT SERENADES.

And the feelings of the people were not stayed from their
expression, even after churehes had closed, and the hours for
slumber came; for, all night the Palace grounds were vocal
with song and mele. At midnight and afterwards a band of
Hawaiian chorus singers made the calm, clear moonlight
vocal with tender and touching chant. Some of these chor-
uses have a very sweet and plaintive melody; and during this
lovely midnight hour, the soft summer air of the walks and
umbrageous foliage of lolani Palace, was tremulous with the
tender songs of Hawaiians bidding farewell to their Bang. .

THE KING AT SEA, ON THE « CITY OP SYDNEY."

His Majesty had a pleasant and interesting trip per "City
of Sydney." The company on board was highly scientific.
Professor Proctor discoursed to the King and other fellow
passengers upon "Star depths," which have systems "inhabit-
ed by beings of greater importance than any that can be de-
veloped around our sun;" (of which beings we would like to

get an inkling, as to size and capacity) and he gave ample
assurances, that many remarkable planetary conjunctions of
this ill omened year, cannot have any appreciable terrestrial
influence; which was consoling to islanders on board, satisfy-
ing their minds that they would find their fast anchored
Archipelago on their return just where they left it. And
there was another scientist on board, Professor W. L. Car-
penter, who enlightened the royal party and other fellow tra-
vellers, with his views and experiences in relation to sea
depths and temperatures of the ocean; in which he explained
the laws affecting Gulf streams and ocean currents, and all
the natural phenomena of our quasi aqueous globe. Ue pre-
sented highly interesting illustrations of the infusorial life,
which he collected from the ooze of the ocean's bed at depths
of three, four and five*miles, when he sailed with our friend
Sir Wyville Thompson on board the Challenger. He had
some of our globigerinse to show, those infinitesimal crus-
taceae which a pin point may cover, aud are hardly visible to
<dhe naked eye; yet reveal to the microscope a shelly buckler
upon which may be counted over eight hundred bosses each
covered with a multitude of figures and corrugations. After
one scientist had shown His Majesty remote suns so many
hundreds of million miles farther away from us than our own
sun, and so many thousands of millions of miles bigger than
our own globe, it was well that there was another scientist to
bring the King back to the earth, and mentally plunging with
him into the depths, could there reveal the infinitely small,
and bring the royal mind to a fine point.

To relieve this heavy strain of science, a vocalist on board
(G. Darrell, Esq.,) contributed some strains of song of love
and war for the entertainment of his fellow passengers. And
then comes the genial, social, and capable Captain Dearborn, to
add an inspiring word, and a cheering assurance, to make the
King and all his cabin happy.

It is stated by all on board during the trip, that
the voyage in respect to weather, and all other circumstances

was an exceedingly pleasant one. The King enjoyed
himself in his usual cheerful and diguified way, and seems
to have won only golden opinions from all his fellow travelers.
On the morning of Thursday the 20th January, the City of
Sydney steamed away from Honolulu with the royal party;
and on the afternoon of Saturday the 29th, she steamed into
the harbor within the Golden Gate. And now we will quote
from the chroniclers of San Francisco and Sacramento, other
particulars attending the King's tour round the world.

KING IN SAN FRANCISCO.

His Majesty was right royally received by the citizens of
San Francisco. The ladies of the Palace Hotel determined
to tender to the monarch a reception in the parlors of the
hotel, ere he departed upon his tedious ocean voyage to the
Flowery Kingdom. Gigantic efforts were put forth by the
ladies, and everything done that could add one iota to the
perfection of detail or brilliancy of the whole fete. Last
evening the auspicious event transpired, and a grander recep-
tion it has seldom, if ever, been allotted to a San Franciscan to
witness. The ladies of the Invitation and Reception Com-
mittees may rest satisfied with their well earned laurels.
The arrangements were simply perfect; the lists of guests
was taken from the creme de la creme of our ^society, and the
judgment of the delighted guests was a unanimous verdict of
praise. The most wonderful circumstance in connection with
last evening's affair was the astonishing rapidity with which
the whole had been elaborated since the inception, scarce one
short week ago, and adds one more to the honors of the Com-
mittees.

The cards of invitation were engraved in script, on a heavy
card, four by five and a quarter inches, and read as follows :

est social events in the history of the city."

KING KALAKAUA ENTERTAINED AT THE PACIFIC

YACHT CLUB HOUSE.

Although His Majesty, King Kalakaua did not come here
in his official capacity, he has received attentions from our
citizens as numerous as on his previous visit six years ago.

The distinguished visitors have no cause to complain of the
hospitality of their friends in this city, as the latter apparent-
ly vie with one another in their attentions to the King aud
his suite. The fact that His Majesty is travelling incognito
has been taken advantage of by some of his friends to give
entertainments which they believe will be of special interest
to him, when formality, due to a King, but which can be
waived in the person of a Prince, does not interfere with the
pleasures of their guests; Such an affair took place yester-
day afternoon, when Commodore R. S. Floyd, of the Pacific
Yacht Club, gave an informal entertainment in honor of His
Majesty. Commodore Floyd is one of those gentlemen who
has enjoyed several years of warm personal friendship with

King Kalakaua, and yesterday he invited the latter to a sail
on the bay and v a dinner at the Club House, near Saucelito.
Capt. Menzies took occasion to express the honor the mem-
bers of the Club felt in entertaining such a distinguished guest,
and proposed the toast of His Majesty, King Kalakaua. The
King responded briefly, returning thanks to Commodore Floyd
and the members of the Pacific Yacht Club for the elegant
entertainment and for their action in electing him a member
of the Club which he considered a great honor, and would
always remember the whole affair as one of the most pleasant
incidents of his visit to San ^rancisco. He also expressed
the hope that on his return next August that he would again
have the pleasure of meeting the members of the Club on
such an occasion, with the additional attraction of the pres-
ence of the ladies. His remarks were warmly applauded,
and at their conclusion rousing cheers were given.

THE CHINESE CONSUL-GENERAL'S DINNER TO

KING KALAKAUA.

The Chinese Consul-General entertained King Kalakaua
with a dinner at the Hang Fer Low restaurant, the Delmo-
nico of Chinatown, last evening. In a Celestial way it was a
very swell affair. All the nobs of Chinatown were therein
their best bibs and tuckers. The company outside of the
state table included the President and Secretary of each of
the nine Chinese Benevolent Associations of the city and all
of the rich wholesale merchants, to the number of sixty. They
wore an extraordinary costume for the occasion, being dressed
in mandarin rank, with buttons and other insignia to denote
their standing. The buttons are worn in their caps, the
color denoting the rank of their blue-blood wearers. The
majority wore the crystal button, a lew the red, the latter
indicating the bluest of the blue bloods. The restaurant r
which is orientally gorgeous in its appointments, was splen-
didly decorated for the occasion, and its usual display of gas

jets being supplemented with an abundance of large vari-
colored lanterns of paper and bamboo, gave it a brilliant
aspect viewed from the street or the surrounding houses-
The royal table was spread in the small room of the restau-
rant, which was specially dressed for the occasion*

The Guests.

On the wall at the foot of the table, facing the Consul
Genera], who presided, were festooned the American, Chin-
ese and Hawaiian flags, ground the regal board were
gathered the King, the Consul, the principal members of the
Consulate, the traveling companions of the King, and such
of our citizens as were invited. On the landing they were
drawn up in a line, and the Chinese, after making a concerted
salaam and shaking each his own hand, after their sociable
custom, were brought forward and each in turn was presented
to the King, shaking his hand and passing to each member
of the party. This little reception, in which the Chinese
shewed an easy, polished politeness, over, the festal party
was seated. The persons named above were seated at the
State table, the others in the adjoining room about little
square tables, each accommodating five guests, the outer side
of the table being left unoccupied, in order that its hanging
of rich crimson satin with gold embroidery might be shown
to advantage. The feasting done, Colonel Bee arose, and on
behalf of the Consul-General proposed the health of the King,
saying that the entertainment had been devised from a desire
to show him some of the inner life of the Chinese, and to
wish him a prosperous and pleasant journey. They desire
that the three flags entwined on the wall should represent
the three countries which the Pacific ocean divided, yet
brought close together, joined in amity for all time ; that
they might go hand in hand, prosperous in all the arts and
sciences, civilization, and everything that makes nations and
people great.

VISIT TO SACRAMENTO.

King Kalakaua in the Capital City of California — He visits the
Legislature and takes in several other sights — The Governor
chaperons him about the city.

Quite a large crowd had collected at the depot to see this

genuine, living representative of modern monarchy, who

proved to be a rather portly and generally fine-looking man of

middle age, dressed in plain citizen's garb, and sporting a

pretty fair set of side-whiskers. His countenance bore a

genial expression, and the impression that one could get from

a brief glance at the royal gentleman would be a favorable

one.

TAKING IN THE TOWN.

The royal party was accompanied from San Francisco by
Hon. Claus Spreckels. Carriages were in waiting for them,
to which they were promptly conducted and driven rapidly
to the Capitol, where an informal visit was paid to His Ex-
cellency Governor Perjrins, and a brief time was spent in
pleasant conversation. Apartments had been secured for the
party at the Arcade Hotel, to which they repaired at the
conclusion of their visit to the Governor, the Governor ac-
companying them, the latter having accepted an invitation
from His Majesty to dine with him. An elegant dinner was
partaken of, after which the King expressed a desire to visit
a theater, and it was accordingly arranged that the party
should drop in at the Capital varieties, the only place of
amusement now open in this city, where three private boxes
were placed at their disposal. During the evening several
calls were made upon prominent citizens, His Majesty re-
tiring a little before midnight.

To-day the party again visited the State Capitol, and spent
4

considerable time on the floor of each House, in the pro-
ceedings of which they seemed to take much interest.

King Kalakaua is traveling incognito, his trip having no
official significance, and being merely for the purpose of ob-
servation and pleasure. For this reason he is addressed as
Prince by his traveling companions.

His Majesty returned to San Francisco the following day.

OTHER ENTERTAINMENTS OF THE KING IN SAN

FRANCISCO.

The French Ball. — Piatt's Hall was crowded to its utmost
capacity on Saturday evening last, where the Ligue Nation,
ale Francaise gave a reception in honor of the new French
Consul, M. Vauvert de Mean and Madame Mean. His
Majesty, King Kalakaua, accompanied by Colonel Judd and
Major Macfarlaiae of his staff were present. In the first
Lancers, His Majesty danced with Madame Planet, wife of
the French Chancellor, aud subsequently waltzed with Mrs.
Dr. Julius Roseustin. Later in the evening he escorted the
latter lady to supper.

The King evidently enjoyed the affair, as he participated
in most of the dances after supper.

His Majesty was entertained at dinner by Claus Spreckels,

grand ovation of festivities. And we feel assured that no
potentate of Europe, nor eminent great man of America's
own soil, could have received greater and more honorable
attention; and as the San Francisco Call says this is accorded
to King Kalakaua, because as a worthy Chief, he has won
the love of a loyal people*

THE KING'S POPULARITY ABROAD.

"King Kalakaua has been entertained right royally by
our social lions since his re entry into San Francisco society,
and can hardly feel otherwise than pleased at the marks of
esteem that he is everywhere receiving. That His Majesty
had a right to expect an ovation, his previous visit assured
him, still he must have been unprepared for the very gener-
ous outpouring of hospitality that has greeted him. Thi&
liouizing is not so much the outcome of a desire to honor the
rank of the royal visitor, as an admiration of him who has
done so much in one short reign towards the social and
political advancement of his people ; a people whom he
found, on coming into his heritage, to be very far down in
the scale of nations. That the ruler of the Sandwich Islands
is to-day feted the world over, is an all-sufficient argument as
to the success of his earnest efforts ; hence these tokens of
respect."

On the 8th inst., His Majesty and suite went on board the
steamship Oceanic, accompanied by a host of enthusiastic
friends, and sailed for Japan and various ports of Asia.

VOYAGE ON THE OCEANIC.

Among the incidents of the journey of His Majesty, when
at sea on board the Oceanic, and sailing across the meridian
of Honolulu but a few degrees to the northward of this
Archipelago; conversation of the Royal party and travelling:

frieuds, turned upon the home feeling that sprung up in Ha-
waiian hearts, yearniug far their own loved shores, when thus
passing them by, as it were. And His Majesty touched with
reminiscences of his Kingdom, his people and his Queen,
especially the latter, gave such a tender expression to his
home and domestic feelings, that a little poetic inspiration,
there and then present, shaped the faithful, royal emotion
into the following lines. They were a waft of emotion from
the King on the high sea, not only to His Queen, but also to
all His people.

VISIT TO JAPAN,

ARRIVAL AT YOKOHAMA.

As the Oceanic steamed into Yokohama harbor very early
on the morning of the 4th March, the eager lookout from the
decks of the steamer could count forty -two men-of-war and
large steamers at anchor in the bay. The Hawaiian flag had
been run up to the main and had floated in the morning
breeze but a few moments, when a brilliant display of bunting
arched each giaqt ship-of-war and steamer, from the water's
edge to the main truck, and frorfi main truck to water's edge,
with the flag of Hawaii flying at the main of every one. At
the same time the shrill boatswains whistles piped lively over
the waters, as the nimble tars coursed up riging and, swarm-
ing out on the yards of their several ships, manned them in
splendid style, and hurrahed, not only three times three, but all
the time whilst our steamer was passing in review, and ships
&nd shore joined with guns in a royal roar of welcome.

Hardly had the Oceanic anchored, when hundreds of sam-
pans, or native canoes, and small craft of all kinds, came
thronging around the broad sides of the great steamer, and
the people on board this mosquito fleet were making a clamor
that drowned the shrieks of the steamer's whistle, when a shot
was heard, a puff of smoke was observed to float away
from a distant battery, a steam launch put off, and by magic,
as it were, the clamor outside the Oceanic had ceased, and the
swarming sampans had pulled and paddled out of sight.
The approaching launch bore a forked white flag with a red
ball in the centre and an Imperial crown on top. This was
the Imperial launch with the Admiral on board. The royal

standard of Hawaii was now run up to the main. Again a
5

grand salvo pealed forth from every war-ship, and chief an-
swered chief right royally in Yokohama bay.

Admiral Nakamura of the Royal Japanese Navy, came on
board, and communicating with the gentlemen of His
Majesty's suite, conveyed to them His Imperial Majesty's
wish that his royal brother of Hawaii would be the guest of
the Sovereign of Japan during all of his stay on Japanese
•soil.

His Majesty consented to waive his incognito and become
the guest of the Emperor of Japan, as King of the Hawaiian
Islands.

Eight state boats or barges, followed the steam launch, and
bore the King and suite with baggage and attendants to the
Imperial summer seat Noge^Tama,

As the royal party landed and proceeded on their way, they
were greeted on all sides with enthusiastic demonstrations of
welcome. At every crossing they past, along two miles of
route, th& Japanese and the Hawaiian flags were suspended
from lofty poles on either side, that leaned over almost touch-
ing trucks, so that the Imperial white banner and the cross
and bars of Hawaii, Wended their folds together over the
heads of the passing cortege,

SUMMEU PALACE OP NOGEYAMA.

After a ceremonious reception at the grand entrance of the
Palace, His Majesty was escorted to magnificent chambers
and parlor, u,sed as Imperial apartments, tfeat were superbly
tapestried, with ebony and gojd furniture, with most elabor-
ate arabesques, with palatial chandeliers, with doors of enamel
and gold; and the burnished gold and glossy lacquered and
enameled surfaces reflected the surprise and delight of our
royal party.

His Majesty's suite were also provided with apartments in
the Palace.

Prince Higashi-Fushimi-no-Miya, waited on our travellers.

He pointed out the marvels of the Imperial summer seat,
and as the royal party expressed their unqualified delight;
they were assured that this was but the threshold of the
Imperial palatial glories.

The royal party after spending the night at Nogeyama, the
.Imperial summer seat, left Yokohama the toll owing day at
II o'clock a. m., by express train for Tokio, distant 18 miles,
and on arrival were received by four Imperial Princes, who
accompanied His Majesty and suite to the Palace. His Im-
perial Japanese Majesty met King Kalakaua in the ante hall
of the Palace, and welcomed him to Japan with marked cor-
diality. The King was then conducted to the saloon of the
Empress, where he was received with distinguished courtesy
and amicable attention. After a few hours repose, His Ma-
jesty the King, was informed by an Imperial Prince of His
Imperial Majesty's approach, to return the visit of the King
of Hawaii in his apartments.

PALACE OF ENRIOKWAN.

Our Hawaiian royal party were highly impressed with the
admirable order of the Imperial Palace at Tokio. The mag-
nificent park grounds seemed to be swarming with attendants,
and all dressed in European fashion, of good style and quality
of garments. An admirable system of service seemed to
regulate the government of the palace. Everybody and
everything scrupulously clean, and ail work and service car-
ried on without any noise or confusion.

On the morning after arrival at Tokio the Hawaiian visi-
tors were surprised to find that a fall of snow, had occured
during the night, to the depth of 4 inehes, and had covered
the Palace Park with a complete mantle of white. Soon they
observed some laborers with pieces of matting about 6 feet
long, and with pieces of bamboo at each end, a simple contri-
vance for removing rubbish, and in a few hours, not a speck
of snow was to be seen in the park.

This beautiful palace is shaped like a letter H, with a cen-

tral line of edifice, and two vrtngs of about the same length.
The Imperial walls are black, and black and gold in glossy
enamel appear everywhere, as the expression of Japanese
Imperial taste. The walls of the palace chambers are not
papered, but draped or tapestried with exquisite patterns of
muslin and silk. Superb ebony and gold wardrobes and
beaufets, adorn the spacious chambers and parlors. English
fire-grates, with polished marble or steel mantels are in all the
apartments. Numerous French and Swiss clocks of beauti-
ful and elaborate designs, afford ample opportunity to note
the flight of time in this palace of delights.

One thing of beauty especially attracted the attention of
our royal tourists, was the regal Camelia, so superb and
perfect in its choosen home. In all parts of the palace upon
etageres and stately beaufets, they beheld lofty lacquered
vases, in which were camelias, as large as saucers, cream
tinted and waxen white, like marvellous productions of the
most consummate art. This royal flower ought to attain al]
its perfection of beauty in Hawaii nei, and we hope that one
of the results of His Majesty's visit to Japan, will be the
cultivation of the camelia ; so that should a Japanese Em-
peror, or Imperial Prince come this way, they will be pleased
to be greeted by the queenly flower of their own home.
Also a wonderful variety of miniature plants in vases the size
of a teacup ; and a great taste, and elegance of horticulture,
were everywhere observed.

In one chamber, the King and suite found four perfect
billiard tables of the latest patterns set apart for their use.
In another apartment a grand piano of the finest tone. Pic.
tures, objects of virtu, brie a brae, and curios of the rarest
quality in. great profusion. And the physical comforts of the
travellers were admirably provided for. Fanciful dishes, yet
of excellent taste, were in profusion on the dining table ; and
iu their private rooms, each one of the party found costly
lacquered trays loaded with a variety of bonbons, which they
supposed could not be found outside of Paris. All the table
service used was of solid gold or silver ware.

SHINTOMIZA THEATRE.

On the day following their arrival, the royal party were
escorted to the Imperial Theatre, Shintomiza. Twenty-eight
carriages were required to take the train of Imperial Princes
find Princesses, and high dignitaries, who formed the escort
of His Majesty the King. One thousand globe shaped
lanterns were displayed in front of and around the theatre ;
and each one had the Imperial Japanese flag, and the Royal
Hawaiian standard painted on them. Every walk, and every
tree in the spacious theatre garden was hung with illuminated
globes, every corridor and lobby was lined with them ; and
the interior of the theatre was in a blaze of light.. It was
estimated that over 3000 of these brilliant illuminated lan-
terns decorated the great theatre, and were an especial
display, marvellous even to Japanese eyes, in honor of King
Kalakaua's visit.

The centre of the dress circle, an Imperial reservation,
capable of seating 50 persons, was fitted up and decorated
most superbly. The programme in English and Japanese
printed on white satin with gold fringe, the Japanese Imper-
ial and the royal Hawaiian flags interwoven in colors. The
Imperial and Royal Standards decorating the centre of the cir-
cle; and also the front of the stage. Elaborate lacquered
tables were placed before/ the royal party, and loaded with
sweetmeats, and cordials and cigars; all the gentlemen smok-
ing, and indulging in a pose of ease and sans facon, not per-
mitted at the Palace. His Majesty was in evening full dress,
and decorated with the star of the order of Kalakaua. The
Princes present each wore a single star of decoration.

The impression produced by this audience of wealthy
Japanese, was that a high order of intelligence pervaded the
company. A large number of spectacles and eyeglasses were
observed, on what appeared to be very, studious faces. All

well dressed, and no vulgar, or clamorous applauding or his.

sing.
The make up and personal appearance of the Princesses

there present, called forth some enthusiastic remarks from

the travellers. They are described as having very fair,

pearly and transparent complexions, with high arched eye-

brows, a great sweetness and beauty of expression, and dressed

very tastefully in soft, yet brilliant silks; and with a dazzling

sparkle of brilliants around their beautiful necks, and in the

lobes of their shell tinted ears.

On the stage, our travellers saw fairies floating through the
air like butterflies, and a terrific giant fighting with about
fifty warriors; and His Majesty was delighted with the oddity
and marvelous variety of the performance.

During His Majesty's stay in Kioto he ordered to be pre-
sented in his name; and as a souvenir of the royal Hawaiian
visit to the Japanese Capital, a drop curtain for the great
Shintomiza Theatre. In the month of July subsequent to
His Majesty '8 visit, the curtain was finished and presented to
manager Morita by Hawaiian Consul Robert Irwin Esq. in
behalf of His Majesty.

The curtain is of crimson Japanese velvet. The Hawaiian
Royal Coat of Arms is embroidered in gold in the centre, and
distributed on each side of this in white silk embroidery is
the inscription, 'Presented to the Shintomiza Theatre by
Kalakaua the First, King of Hawaii, in the second month of
the year 2541 (Japanese era).' The curtain was manufac-
tured by Nishimaru & Co., of Kiyoto, and is, the handsomest
thing of the kind that has ever been used in a Japanese
Theatre.

What an advertisement of the little Kindom, in that great
empire, is this drop curtain ? The multitudes of Kioto assem-
ble in this great theatre that seats 5000 people, — not only to
look upon exhibitions of Japanese mimic art; but also to
listen at times to Christian teachers; and as they gaze during

STATE DINNER AT AKA8AKA PALACE.

A succeeding day, His Imperial Majesty of Japan, enter-
tained His Hawaiian Majesty at a grand state dinner, for
which 238 covers were laid. On this occasion all the- Imper-
ial Princes and Princesses, of the court were present.

The bill of fare was printed on white satin, with fringe of
gold, and with the Hawaiian coat of arms at top wrought
with gold thread.

The table service gold and silver. The spoons and ladles*
of gold, and other articles of the service had the Imperial
Japanese and Hawaiian flags graven upon them, with the
Hawaiian crown on top.

When some rare and costly Veuve Clicquot, a present from
the Emperor of Russia, was uncorked, the health of His
Majesty the King of the Hawaiian Islands was proposed by
His Imperial Japanese standing. The band struck up at the
time the Hawaiian anthem, and the toast was received with
the most distinguished honors by the illustrious company
present. His Majesty did not respond by proposing His Im-
perial Majesty's health, as some present expected; because
His Majesty bearing in mind that the Emperor would lunch
with him on the morrow, thought that then would be the
proper occasion to return the compliment. His Majesty's ap-
preciation of a correct etiquette was fully recognized.

In the centre of the great banquetting table was a fountain'
all gold, of the most exquisite workmanship, with Japanese

designs of dragons rind fantastic figures of gods and goddesses,
but it was not playing. His Imperial Majesty in the course
of conversation with the Kiflg, expressed regret that the foun-
tain had recently met with an accident in itfr hydraulic works.

it was an intricate piece of machinery and was out of order,
and he was sorry to say, would not sport its diversified jets as
usual. His Majesty quickly responded that the High Powers
of heaven had been pouring out such a superabundance of
water of late (recent heavy rains) to bless and fructify His
Imperial Majesty's domains, that the little gods and goddesses
of the fountain felt, no doubt, that it would be impious to add
their little spout at thiB time. His Imperial Majesty laughed
heartily at the conceit, and the remark and the mirth went
the round of the assembled dignitaries.

His Majesty the King accepted an invitation to visit the
First Christian Church of Yokohama on their anniversary,
the tenth of March, to which the people of his Kingdom had
so liberally contributed, many years ago.

On the afternoon of March 12th, His Majesty the King was
received iu grand audience by His Majesty the Emperor, at
the Private Palace; the Imperial Princes and Princesses in
attendance. It was the occasion of the presentation to the
Emperor of the portrait of His Majesty the King, and of Her
Majesty Queen Kapiolani.

His Majesty the King was presented with two Japanese
armors of ancient style, made oi the best steel; visors and all
polished; very curious, and of largest size. His Majesty the
King received a multitude of presents from various quarters.

When the King and his suite visited the Enriokwan Man-
sion, in a grand park, in Tokio, the grounds were illuminated
by over 4,000 Japanese globe lanterns; and the King and
suite were robed in very rich Japanese court costumes, pro-
vided expressly for this occasion.

On the 14th of March the King was presented with the
grand cross of the Imperial Japanese order of Kris-authemum,
by the hands of His Imperial Majesty of Japan; and on the
15th the Emperor lunched with the King, and was decorated
by His Majesty of Hawaii with the Grand Cross of Kameha*
meha.

incidents during the King's sojourn of ten days, given in
addition to those we clip from Yokohama foreign journals,
whilst a guest of the Emperor of Japan at Tokio; and many
we must pass by for the present. Some incidents
attending the King's departure from Hawaii; the loyal ova-
tion of Kohalans; and especially the incident of the bearing
of the King on the shoulders of his people, through the surf
by torchlight, were discussed in the grand banqueting hall of
the Palace of Akasaka ; and the Advertiser, of Honolulu,
that had been thoughtfully transmitted to, and carefully read
by, gentlemen of the Imperial household, was quoted as
authority in speaking of the story. His Imperial Majesty
was much gratified to be informed of this demonstration of
enthusiastic loyalty to his royal guest, when at home.

THE KING VISITS A MISSIONARY MOTHER.

His Majesty was invited to a grand festivity at Yokohama,
where many European as well as Japanese high officials had
assembled to meet King Kalakaua; but His Majesty awaken-
ed much surprise, and a feeling of increased respect for Chris-
tian Missionary workers, in the minds of the Japanese, by
deferring his attendance at the great festivity, and by calling
upon old lady Gulick, the Missionary mother residing in
Yokohama, whilst the assembled distinguished guests awaited
His Majesty's presence.

VISIT TO KOBE.

King Kalakaua sailed from Yokohama, the 16th March on
board the steamship Tokio Maru. His Majesty was accom-
panied on the journey by the Princes and Daimios, who had
been commanded by the Emperor to attend upon the King
as especial escort, during every hour of his stay in Japan.
The courtesy and royal attention shown to the King in Japan,

recals the spirit of princely courtesy of the noblest days -of the

taedicBval chivalry of Christendom. Hawaii is placed under
deep obligation to Japan.

The rojal party arrived at Kobe on the 18th March — and
were received by the Governor of the City with ceremonious
attention. His Majesty rested a short while at the Governor's
residence; and during his short stay visited a grand and an-
cient palace, and one of the extensive temples of Japan. The
palace of Kobe is surrounded by a wall 12 feet high and 3 feet
wide at the top. In the great audience Hall is a throne of
large dimension and singular structure. In the center of the
Hall is a raised square of dais, of gold and vermillion lacquer.
This is covered with a canopy of heavy embroidered silk of
the richest quality. In the centre of the dais is a throne
chair, of brilliaat gold and vermillion lacquer; and the roof of
this stately hall is supported by 12 lofty smooth columns, or
resplendent shafts with surfaces of polished gold. On each
side of the dais, are suspended picture of the Emperor and
the Empress of Japan. All the doors of the palace are
frames covered with pictured tapestry, and are moved in
grooves or slides. The royal party noticed a beautiful minia-
ture lake in the palace grounds, enclosed by box bush shrub-
bery. A narrow causeway, shaded with the rarest shrubbery
leads to a rock in the centre of the pellucid lake. This rock
is overgrown with mosses and creepers, and has a delightful
cool grotto recess; and in this sweet spot, whose sacred priv-
acy is only invaded by the lake carp, or the Japanese thrush,
their Imperial Majesties of Niphon come to cool their sacred
persons during the summer solstice.

At the Buddhist temple, a grand and gloomy structure, j

two dozen priests robed in vari colored silks and gold, receiv-
ed the King aud suite. The royal party were conducted into
the presence of the collossal images of Buddha; the Badiva
or Sacred Parent of the ancient Asiatic world. Our travel-
lers were allowed to gaze a short while but not to enter the
recesses where the god and the symbolic dragon were placed.

In one of ttyese recesses, or consecrated niches* they saw
placed behind Buddha, a large painting representing a "lamb
in the lap of the Son- of Buddha." After a time- wandering
thpugh the halls of the great temple, the high priest con-
ducted His Majesty to a tasteful chamber, where refreshments
were served in. rare and unique style. Prominent upon a
beautiful lacquered table was a large fish about 2! feet long,
and showing all the natural bright colors, gold, ebony and
scarlet of one of the most beautiful of the sclerodermes (the
parrot fish that sports- in Hawaiian waters). And yet the
fish was well cooked, and these* colors were the tints of whole-
some condiments applied by the artist of Buddha's cuisine,
after the culinary process was accomplished. A marvelous
fish and birds and flowers of confectionery astonished! the
eyes of the travellers from the far Pacific islands, — audi were
presented to His Majesty to be forwarded to his island home.
The high priest said that no one had sat at this table before
except the Emperor or Mikado. His Majesty was seated
upon a beautiful chair made of polished tortoise shell.. The
old high priest explained before eating, that this was the
table of sacrifice of the Mikado; a sort of alter of thank offer-
ing. And a tray of small red papers, incense powder,, and
small fruits were placed before His Majesty, and a small por-
tion of each were burned in an urn or censer; and after this
form of Buddhist grace, the party fell too> and partook of a
marvelous and most appretizing entertainment.

After leaving the temple His Majesty visited severals
schools; on<f where little girls were taught embroidery; and
some schools of boys; and the King was delighted with the
bright appearance and cheerfulness of the little students of
the several institutions.

Afterwards His Majesty and suite partook of tiffin, or lunch
with His Excellency the Governor of Kobe.

The royal party on leaving Kobe proceeded by rail to
Osaka distant 24 miles, and made a run at stage coach speed
in 4 hours.

Here the same ceremonies were repeated by the Governor
of the city, as at Kobe. A grand dinner was prepared;
which however the royal party had to decline. From Osaka
the royal party proceeded to Kioto; and thence to the beau-
tiful city of Nangasaki.

At this point, the four princes, who had escorted the King;
and who had waited on His Majesty daring every hour of his
stay in Japan, now took affectionate congee of their royal
guest; who embarked March 22d on the Tokio Maru, that
had been despatched expressly to wait on His Majesty, and
transport the royal party to Shanghai.

ARRIVAL IN CHINA.

AT SHANGHAI.

His Majesty and suite arrived off the bar of the Shanghai
roadstead ou the 25th March and were takee thence by tug

to the city, and were escorted by Mr. Jansen to the Astor
Hdtel. After a rest on the following day, His Majesty wa9
waited upon by the Taotai, or chief magistrate of the city,
and other Chinese dignitaries, and foreign representatives.
The party took rides on the rigshaw, or one wheeled Chinese
express at the rate of 10 cash, or one cent a mile. Witnessed
a review, and were well entertained during a short stay at
Shanghai.

On the 27th March the royal party embarked on the Pau-
tah, one of tlie China Merchants Steamer Line; the King
having been informed by the President of the Company, that
by telegram from His Excellency Li Hung Chang the Viceroy
residing at Tientsin, this vessel was placed at the disposal of
His Majesty. The royal party steamed over the Yellow Sea,
and arrived at the bar of the Bund, on the morning of 29th
March.

AT TIENTSIN- VISITS THE VICEROY.

On the following day all the foreign representatives in the
city waited on His Majesty on board the Pautah. On the 31st
His Majesty and suite called upon the Viceroy Li Hang the
Prime Minister and actual Ruler of China.

This distinguished official of the great Empire speaks little
or no English, therefore His Majesty needed the assistance of
an interpreter during a lengthy and highly .interesting conver-
sation. His Majesty with nis thoughts ever patriotically oc-
cupied with the interests of his country, discussed on this
occasion the great need of his little Kingdom, owing to the
disproportion of sexes* of more women accompanying the
emigration to his realm. The enlightened Viceroy expressed
a high appreciation of His Majesty's patriotic anxiety in
order to promote the increase and better social order of his
island Kingdom, and said that should any farther emi-
gration of the people of the Empire for the Sandwich Islauds
take place, he would favor all in his power, provided some
provision was made by His Majesty's Government to assist
female emigration.

The following day the 1st of April, the Viceroy waited
upon His Majesty on board the Pautah. His Excellency and
suite were conveyed in a splendid steam launch. They ar-
rived on board punctual to appointment at noon, and remain-
ed several hours on board.

After the departure of the Viceroy, in the evening of the
same day; the royal party went ashore, to partake of a grand
Chinese dinner and soiree, given by the Viceroy in honor of
His Majesty in the spacious building of the China Merchants
Steamship Co. At 6.30 the arrival of the Viceroy was
announced. A few minutes afterwards, as His Majesty and
suite entered, three guns were fired. (The royal salute of
China.) The feast was a marvel of Chinese ingenuity and
luxury, and there was present on the occasion a splendid dis-
play of official Chinese dress, and of foreign uniforms, but no
ladies. As the King noticed the absence of the gentler sex, His
Majesty was informed by a distinguished mandarin that official
etiquette forbade the presence of ladies on such an occasion;
and in vindication of Chinese custom he said that Chinese
ladies, who had no assemblies or Church meetings for mutual
display and encounter, which Western civilization favored,
but had to stay at home with their families, generally loved
and spoke well of their neighboring sisters; and the worthy
8

mandarin wished to know if the ladies of His Majesty's capi-
tal were all animated by this excellent and amiable spirit.
His Majesty's reply is not reported, but it was no doubt dic-
tated by that wisdom and discretion requisite to meet the
possible irony and insidious character of the enquiry.

RETURN TO SHANGHAI.

On the 2d April His Majesty and suite re-embarked on
board the Pautah, and steaming back over the Yellow Sea,
returned to Shanghai on the 6th April.

On the 9th April, His Majesty and suite left Shanghai per
steamer, and arrived in Hongkong on the 12th April.

AT HONGKONG.

His Majesty King Kalakaua arrived on the 12th April. It
was arranged that a banquet should be given in honor of His
Majesty at Government House on Monday next. Immediate-
ly after the banquet His Majesty will bold a public reception,
at which the Members of Council, Heads of Departments,
Naval ancl Military Officers, Foreign Consuls, and the lead-
ing residents of the Colony, both ladies and gentlemen, will
be introduced to His Majesty.

BANQUET AND RECEPTION.

His Excellency the Governor and Lady Heunessy gave a
grand banquet in houor of His Majesty the King of Hawaii,
after which a reception was held by His Majesty, which was
numerously attended, about three hundred persons being
present. Dancing commenced about half-past ten, His
Majesty leading off Lady Henuessy, aud was kept up till past
midnight, to the strains of the Baud of the 27th Inniskillings.
The assemblage was a brilliant one and proved a great suc-
cess, the gathering being truly cosmopolitan and representa-
tive.

VISIT TO KOWLOONG,

Yesterday morning, Mr. 0. P. Chater, Deputy District
Grand Master of the Freemasons of Hongkong, entertained
His Majesty the King of Hawaii, and suite, His Excellency
the Governor, and a large number of the residents at tiffin in
his spacious buugalow at Kowloong, His Majesty King Kala-
kaua and suite and His Excellency Sir John Pope Hennessy,
attended by his Private Secretary, Dr. Eitel, arrived about
half-past one o'clock, and were received at the gardeu steps

by the hospitable host, who conducted them to the- entrance
of the banqueting room, where they were received with a
ringing cheer by the assembled guests. About one hundred
and forty guests sat down to an elegant and most bountiful re-
past. In the centre of the room were ranged Mr* Chater'gk
numerous and handsome trophies of the turf, which presented
a really magnificent coup d'ceil. The distinguished guests
having been seated in order of precedence, the tiffiu proceed-
ed. At its close Mr. Chater rose and in a few well chosen
and apposiie sentence proposed the health of His Majesty the
King of Hawaii. The toast was received with great enthusi-
asm, the company drinking it in bumpers and giving three
ringing cheers for their illustrious visitor. The King replied
iu a short but felicitous speech, in the course of which he said*
that though his kingdom had no commercial treaty with the
Colony of Hongkong he should be glad to enter into one of
friendship with it, and (referring to Mr. Chater's collection of
racing cups) would feel pleasure in forwarding a cup to be
contested for at the next annual races, and he had no doubt
his friends in Hongkong would return the compliment and
send one to Honolulu. A long continued outburst of applause
followed this sally. His Majesty concluded by gracefully
proposing the health of Her Majesty the Queen, The toast
was received with fervent acclamation.

KING KALAKAUA IN SIAM.

His Majesty and suite took passage from Hongkong to
Bangkok, rassing over an uneventful voyage, they arrived
at the bar of the Menan, the great river of Siam, on the
morning of the 26th April. Oh entering the river, the steam
yacht of the King of Siam was seen approaching, and shortly
afterwards a twelve-oared boat carrying the flag of the White
Elephant came alongside, carrying a» officer ot His Majesty's
household, conmissioned to tender to King Kalakaua the hos-
pitalities of his brother of Siam. The -invitation was accom-
panied by expressions of regret on the part of His Majesty
that he had not received sufficiently early notice of the arrival
of his royal visitor to allow of his meeting him in person at
the river bar. Another boat accompanied that of the Envoy,
carrying His Siamese Majesty's Aide-de-Camp, Dissaworka-
maru. Salutations were exchanged, and the whoie party
proceeded on board the yaeht, which is described as "a
beautiful boat," and made in her the voyage up the Menam

to Bangkok, a distance of about twenty miles. The manner
in which this yacht was found and fitted seems to have excit-
ed the admiration of all the party. Under an awning, so
tasteful in its character as to attract attention even among so
many novelties, cool drinks and delicious liquors had been
provided in profusion, with the wellcome accompaniment of
the choicest Manila and Siamese cheroots.

ARRIVAL IN BANGKOK.

Bangkok, as our party steamed through it under these lux-
urious circumstances proved highly interesting. Many of its
peculiarities which attracted their notice are common to
other river-side cities of Eastern Asia, but Bangkok has a
quaint character of its own, which makes it worthy of a more
prolonged visit, than our travellers could pay. The river
divides the city, and on either side, built out on slender piles
into the stream itself, stores of every description line the
shores, whilst the river itself is alive with boats and canoes.
The curiously designed pagodas, the temples with their tile-
lined fronts, brilliant with gilding and silvering, burnished
so that they reflect the rays of a truly tropical sun with a daz-
zle which obliges the eye to turn elsewhere, the green and
trim gardens full of the brightest flowers, made a picture
which none of the party will soon forget.

It was halt-past six before the voyage up the river came to
an end. A splendid large boat manned by 24 oarsmen took
the royal party ashore, and from the landing they were con-
veyed in sedan chairs to the Palace of one of the Princes; a
regiment of infantay lining the way, and several royal vessels
and men-of-war lying in the river, and firing salutes, Here
His Hawaiian Majesty was received in truly royal style. By
a splendid marble staircase flanked by rows of polished gra-
nite columns, His Majesty entered an antechamber, some
eighty feet in length, with floors in mosaic of marble, and
furniture of ebony. Statues, vases, and other products of the
highest order of Western art, and paintings by European
masters lined the apartment, whilst damasks, hanging richly
embroidered in gold, served to conceal the multitude of
guards and servants who were in attendance.

The following day at 2 p. m. had been fixed for the recep-
tion of King Kalakaua by his royal brother of Siam. Ac-
companied by his suite and by Prince Dissaworkumaru, His
Majesty was conveyed to the Palace. This building is de-
scribed as a masterpiece of architecture; built of highly polish-
ed marble, the inner walls inlaid with precious stones, the
floors a mosaic of colored marbles. The King of Siam is a

man of about 27 years of age, with a firm resolute face, no
beard, a keen eye and massive forehead. He was dressed
for the occasion in a tunic of gold brocade, with the silk gar-
ment, worn by all Siamese of rank, wound round his legs,
leaving, as is their custom, a little bare at the back of the
knee. He was decorated with a multitude of insignia of va-
rious orders, and his sword belt glittered with diamouds,
rabies and sapphires. His Siamese Majesty was attended by
His Minister -of Foreign Affairs, Chow Phya Bhanuwongse,
and forty other high officers of state.

His Siamese Majesty greeted the Hawaiian King and,
through his interpreter, asked after his health and expressed
his regret that, through shortuess of notice, he was not better
prepared for His Majesty's reception. King Kalakaua was
conductedjto a seat, but Siamese -etiquette bade all others re-
main standing. After a short conversation His Siamese
Majesty retired with a ceremqpious farewell.

At four o'clock in the afternoon of the 28th, the arrival of
a troop of cavalry announced the approach of His Siamese
Majesty to return the visit of King Kalakaua. He came in a
carriage, which to the eyes of his guests appeared to be all of
gold, drawn by four horses. His Majesty and two Ministers
who were in attendance on him, alighted and were received
at the threshold of the palace by King Kalakaua. Congratu-
lations were exchanged and as on the occasion of their former
meeting only the two monarchs were seated

In true Oriental style the royal host did not allow his guest
to depart without presents suitable to his rank. In the even-
ing a State dinner was given at the palace, and at eleven the
following morning a regretful leave was taken of Bangkok,
its fairy-like palaces and temples, its hospitable monarch* aud
the kindly men of rank who had vied with their sovereign in
his -endeavor to make the stay of their visitors from the lone-
ly Isles of the Pacific as delightful as a dream. A superb
barge manned by 24 oarsmen, was ready to receive the royal
traveller, and after a pull of 15 minutes landed the King and
suite on tbe steamer Bangkok. The royal Hawaiian standard
was hoisted at the main; the troops on shore fired a salute;
and the multitudes of hospitable Siamese gave prolonged, and
rousing cheers, as the royal travelling party steamed away-
down the Menam.

THE KING IN SINGAPORE.

His Majesty, accompanied by his suite and Mr. Herwig,
the Hawaiian Consul, landed about a quarter past 10 a. m. at
Johnston's Pier, and theu walked down to the Hotel de
9

l'Europe where the King is staying. A large crowd of
natives aud Europeans witnessed His Majesty's landing and
manifested a lively and respectful curiosity. Johnston's Pier
was most tastefully decorated with palms and evergreen
"plants, aud the large number of flags, with the Hawaiian
national flag on a large pole, added greatly to the general ef-
fect. , '

On Saturday H. E. the Governor Sir Frederick A. Weld
drove down to town with his four-in-hand, in full uniform, aud
returned the call of H. M. the King of the Hawaiian Islands.
Afterwards His Majesty and suite drove with His Ex. to the
reservoir, with which His Majesty expressed himself highly
pleased. Yesterday afternoou His Majesty held a reception
at Government House, when many officials and other gentle-
men and ladies were presented. In the evening His Excel-
lency and Lady Weld gave a large official dinner in honor of
His Majesty, at which AdmiraJ Aslambegoff and Prince Tor-
Ionia were also present. «

RECEPTION BY THE SULTAN OF JOHORE.

During the stay at Singapore, His Majesty received some
distinguished royal courtesy at the hands of the Sultan, or
Maharajah of Johore, whose palace is distant forty miles
from Singapore. His Majesty the King having accepted an
invitation to visit His Highness the Maharajah, the steam
launch of the Prince was despatched to Singapore, and on the
morning of 10th May conveyed the royal traveller to the
palace of Istana. Our travellers were astonished and delight-
ed with the fine architecture and royal appointments of'the
{>alace. Sultan Abubakr and his courtiers have marked
lawaiian types of features, aud the Malay Prince was recog-
nized as presenting a striking likeness to the late Hawaiian
Prince Leleiohoku. The ladies of the Court of Istana are
spokeu of in terms of enthusiastic eulogy.

Costly furniture and bricabac adorn this noble palace, the
hospitality of which was extended so royally to our King,
that we are placed under deep obligation by the Malay Sul-
tan, as we have befen by a Japanese Emperor, a Siamese
King, and a Chinese Viceroy.

After a stay of seven days in Singapore, His Majesty King
Kalakaua took his departure for Calcutta en route to Europe
the 12th May by the B. I. S. N. Co.'s steamer Mecca, Cap-
tain Thomson.

IN EGYPT.

After a rapid trip across the Indian Peninsular His
Majesty arrived at Suez on the morning of Monday,
June 20th and found a special train, provided by the hospi-
tality of the Khedive, ready to convey him to Cairo. After
spending a few days there and visiting the Pyramids and
other objects of interest, His Majesty went forward Jto Alex-
andria where he was received with much state by the Khe-
dive. On the night of Friday, June 26th, a grand State Ball
was given in houor of the King at the vice-regal palace. It
was attended by the Abyssinian Ambassador, the Consular
corps and the leading residents, Egyptian and foreign, of
Cairo and Alexandria. On the following morning the Khe-
dive's barge, with the Hawaiian Royal btandard flying, took
His Majesty on board the steamer "Asia" bound for Naples
and the Egyptian flagship "Mahomed Ali" fire a royal salute
as the King embarked. During his stay at Cairo, His Majes-
ty visited the Grand Orient of Egypt when the degree of
Hon. Grand Master of the Grand Orient was conferred upon
him. On this occasion His Majesty delivered a lengthy ad-
dress on some of the mysteries of the craft and of the great
Pyramid which has been published at length in the P. G.

large crowds continually assembled to see and greet the for-
eign sovereign; great military spectacles were arranged fofc
him; and interviews took place with all the Royal Princes
then at Berlin." The Crown Prince was in London where
His Majesty had already met and received much attention
from him. The Emperor of Germany was absent at Gastein.
Among the sights of Berliu, the military displays got up es-
pecially for His Majesty's gratification seem to have most

be the best disciplined io the world. On Wednesday August

lously entertained and visited all the chief objects of iuterest
in that delightful city and its envirous and from thence

eign Affairs, waited upon the King and welcomed him in the
