Mrs. Gummer’s School.—On Monday last an examination of Mrs. Gummer’s scholars took place at the residence of Stephen Reynolds, Esquire, Consul for the city of Bremen.

He mele he inoa no Aiu,
Kuu pua o Kina hapa Hawaii,
He opua hookahi a i kuu alo,
Kuu lei miulana poina ole;
Kau he hiki aku i ka moana,
Na ale nupanupa o ka Pakipika,

Haina ia mai ana ka puana,
Kuu pua o Kina hapa Hawaii.
Owau iho no,
MRS KILA KAILI.
