BENJAMIN LUMLEY,
THE SANDWICH ISLANDS. Bishop Stanley, late of Honolul, sends to the Tines some particulara relative to the Onnsti- tation of the Sandwich Islanda. The old ay nasty of the Kamehamehas ends with the late King, the fifth of the name, who, like bie younger brother and predecessor, reigned about nine years. When Kamebaughs IV. acceded to the throne in 1854, he found a Constitution existing based on poivetant suffrage: no pro- perty qualification for members of the Legia" fature required; two Chamber, the Upper though aciinally the House of Chiefs, being recruited fra foraig residents who had eluwn any particular Interest in the country. Except in a few unimportant poista recognizing native ideas and mangos, it was a cluse copy of the
·Constitution of any State in the American” Union, the King representing the governor of tire State. To this Constitution, if not the work at least due to the fafluened of the Ameri can Independent missioneries, the late King,
un his accession in 1863, refused to take the path, and in the following year, notwithstand- ing the all bat unanimous opposition of the trou missionarice, ualires, led by two Se abrogated is hy proclamation, drew up a dew one less democratic, fusing the two.
