The Fejee chiefs pay great attention to this part of their toilet, and have regular barbers attached to their estab- lishments. Seruh had his prophet, or " Ambati, " with him, who appeared to be a shrewd, intelligent man. The whole party seemed delighted with the ship, and made us quite a visitation. 146 FEJEE ISLANDS. May 21st. We hear that the " Peacock " has succeeded in capturing Vendovi. It was effected by seizing his brother chiefs, and retaining them on board the ship until he was delive...red up to Captain Hudson. It is very gratifying for us to learn that a messenger arrived here this afternoon from Ambou, with permission for the Chief Levuka to take the taboo off the cocoa-nut trees. This will enable us to procure the fruit in future. The taboo was laid on a short time previous to our arrival in the islands, and, I am informed, was done out of respect to a high chief, who was drowned in the harbor of Rewa. None but chiefs of high rank can remove the taboo; hence the necessity of waiting in the present instance for the chiefs of Ainbou to give orders on the subject.
