DEATH OF MR. DOUGLAS.
The following letter has been kindly furnished for publication. It may be proper to remark that Mr. DAVID DOUGLAS, whose untimely and tragical death his friends and the community sincerely deplore, was born at Perth, Scotland, and had travelled in various parts of the world as a naturalist connected with the Horticultural Society of London. It is supposed his age was about 40 years.
The body was examined at Honolulu, Aug. 3, by a number of medical gentlemen, and from the marks found on it, they were unanimous in the opinion that his death was accidental.
Hilo, Hawaii, July 15, 1834.
To Richard Charlton, Esq., his Britannic Majesty's Consul at the Sandwich Islands;
Dear Sir,—Our hearts almost fail within us, as we undertake to perform the melancholy duty which devolves upon us to communicate the painful intelligence of the death of our friend Mr. Douglas, and such particulars thus far, as we have been able to gather.
The tidings reached us when we were every moment awaiting his arrival, and expecting to greet him with a cordial welcome. But alast! He whose ways and thoughts are not as ours, saw fit to order it otherwise; and instead of being permitted to welcome the living friend, our hearts have been made to bleed as we have performed the offices of humanity to his mangled corpse. Truly, we must say that the ways of the Lord are mysterious, and his judgements past finding out. But it is our unspeakable consolation o know that those ways are directed by infinite wisdom and mercy, and that though clouds and darkness are round about Him, yet righteousness and judgement are the habitation of his throne.
But we proceed to lay before you as full information as it is in our power to do at the present time, concerning, this distressing
