CORRESPONDENCE.

(We do not bold onrselves responsible for the opinions or the ntterances of onr correspondents.] Editok Holomua. In the Sfar of the 10th inst. appears an editorial whieh rather surprised me. The writer insinuates that the royalists are a very j intemperate lot and that he and , the other “repnblicans” (save the 1 mark) are a regular goody-goody ;.sort of fellows. Now, Mr. editor, I have the experience of nine (9) t-ears service in the liquor business in Honolulu, and I bave had ) the pleasure to dispense a eonsiderable amount of the sootbing beverage both to royalists and to members of the new missionary faction —including the editor of the Sfar. And, I say, if there is a royalist in this town, who is more fond of his bitters than the star-man or do more justice to it —let him be trotted ont and forwarded to the Tacoma Fair. The only difference that I havenoticed between the rova!ists and the, now —republican star-editor, is i that they generally pay for the ! stnff they use while his name adorns, at least. my slate. 810.
