Stray Notes.
Bv A Vaoeajt". Yesterday, Mr. Editor, I was a witness of the most heartrending sight I have ever seen. In a house at Api.i I saw a daughter (a supporter of Malietoa) holding in In rlap aud caressing the head of her father (d suppor'or of Tainasese) who had l.oeit killed and his head cut off by one of Malietoa's nun. To think, Mr* Editor, that this could happen while the wretch who has and is causing this bloodshed is protected by a so-called (Heaven savo tho mark) great nation. Now Britishers and Americans do your duty. I uuhesitutingly say that if this man is allowed to continue in causing this bloodshed then a stain rests on every man of you. This is u ea-so for your intervention.
