that safron tinted, inalaria-redolci- sea-<br />

port nt 9 o'clock the next morning, and<br />

reached the city of Mexico within<br />

twenty hours thereafter. Within the<br />

twenty hours then following he was on<br />

the return train for Vera Cruz, nnrt<br />

before the Mexican sun hurt four limes<br />

set upon its liunin-lik- c isitor he was<br />

homeward bound, with the chalk cliffs<br />

of Dover in the fore front of his loyal<br />

longing. When this remarkable traelcr<br />

re leached London he, published a<br />

book nbout Mexico ns n field for the<br />

investment of Knglish capitalists. It<br />

was reserved for Mr. Moncure D. Con-<br />

way, himself .1 Londoner of some years<br />

residence, to sum up the diameter of a<br />

community from data gathered during<br />

a ten hours' stay (or less) while his<br />

steamer was coaling and discharging<br />

cargo. If c I lonolulans were revenge-<br />

ful, wc might find considerable mali-<br />

cious satisfaction in the fact that the<br />

Australians have handled Mr. Conway<br />

without dotes; hate called him a<br />

shallow humbug, who plays tenpins<br />

tyith a few very woodeny theories of<br />

lie, and wiiose good opinion is less<br />

worth having than his dispraise. Yet<br />

Mr. Conway so much must be ad-<br />

into the rcligio social campus of I lono-<br />

of our Sunday question than any of us<br />

hit native wife to the home lie hail made and<br />

set to work to make a Christian of her; )ou<br />

may readily fancy that his methods were crude,<br />

like his oxthodoiy, anil he indulged in rum and<br />

spiritual lessons in unequal proportions, punc-<br />

tuating his teachings in one and his indulgence<br />

in the other with to such an extent<br />

that the simple-minde- woman through! it well<br />

Iodic. This she did, and n jury, who were<br />

considering the responsible share that the<br />

captain bad in her demise, found themselves<br />

deprived of any painful duty by the suicide of<br />

the captain by the sailor-lik- e method of a rope.<br />

day there appeared on the face of the girl a<br />

Mating red spot, which spread from the check<br />

to the ear, and then developed into tulwrculcs<br />

over the neck and they said she was a Icjkt.<br />

Thil happened In June. The girl declared<br />

she was not, but the inexorable law forced her<br />

nway to Honolulu. Meanwhile she declared<br />

she was not afflicted, nnd insisted on liming her<br />

lover lielicve the was temporarily in Honolulu<br />

visiting ami making some purchases, and so<br />

on, preparatory to the wedding set for October.<br />

" Vcs," continued Mr. Line, "the de-<br />

" What effect his the law allowing the sale<br />

Initilriil the reporter.<br />

" II was used by Hie government nrly to<br />

dragging it into sensuality and debauchery by<br />

his example.<br />

Now the Rev. Dr. Lane is undoubt<br />

edly nn honest man, believing what lie<br />

writes to be true ; and hundreds of<br />

people believe ns he writes. Hut hun<br />

dreds ol just as honest people think<br />

tcry differently. Vide Mr. David Gra<br />

ham Adce, for instance. His first let-<br />

ter to the Washington Republic was<br />

reprinted entire by the Honolulu Bul-<br />

letin. It complimented King Kalakaua<br />

highly. In his second letter he writes:<br />

I bclitsc the King himself seldom wears one<br />

of his numerous honors of this sort and only<br />

upon extraordinary occasions, but usually, ap<br />

pears at evening entertainments in the modest<br />

dress of our own American president. His<br />

majesty's dignity of detriment, howcter, and<br />

unstudied courtesy and graciousness of address<br />

sufficiently serve 'to designate him from the<br />

other gentlemen of the company, while his<br />

kingly stature and manly countenance recall to<br />

mind the traditional demeanor of the stately<br />

Hapsburg line, although it is no compliment<br />

to the cultured and travelled<br />

now on the throne of the brave Kamehamchas<br />

to liken him in any wise to the illiberal, if<br />

illustrious, race of imperialists of that most<br />

despotic dynasty, for the island-crow- of Ha-<br />

waii fiularly worn by the soldierly, knightly<br />

and princely King Kalakaua.<br />

Now Mr. Artec is a gentleman, a<br />

man of the world and qualified by in-<br />

tellect and training to weigh men care-<br />

fully. He found in King Kalakaua<br />

much to admire. Are we to make up<br />

our minds that the king purchased Mr.<br />

Adce with a breakfast and a friendly<br />

chat; or shall we frankly admit that<br />

there must be in the king's personality<br />

traits worthy of admiration, or else a<br />

man of Mr. Artec's mental caliber<br />

would not so unreservedly have praised<br />

him ? It is true that cautious men may<br />

object that Mr. Adec made up his<br />

mind too quickly1 in estimating the<br />

worth of a sotcreign against whose<br />

policy the brains of a busy community<br />

are so manifestly united, llut Mr. Adce<br />

has giten us his opinion, and tte have<br />

no right on the surface of things to<br />

question his motive.<br />

Fortunately, Mr. Artec docs not dis-<br />

miss his eulogium without a note of<br />

warning. It is to be hoped that friends<br />

of Minister Gibson will not neglect the<br />

following paragraph :<br />

The possibilities in the pathway of the Sand,<br />

wich Islands are strikingly obtious to the<br />

stranger visiting there. Willi the navigation<br />

of the t)e Lessens canal thrown open to the<br />

world, they must immediately assume consider-<br />

able commercial moment. With a cabinet of<br />

councillors composed ol mature, experienced<br />

and public-spirite- merchants (men such as<br />

Alexander J. Carlwright, a representative<br />

Ainciican, and Paul Isenlierg, a representative<br />

German), characteriiing the, immense shipping<br />

interests incident to the position of these Inter-<br />

continental islands on the marine chart, their<br />

capital city might well become, within the<br />

common lioiinds of probability, a modern<br />

Venice in maritime and mercantile magnitude<br />

and material prosperity.<br />

The present ollcy of permitted monopoly,<br />

the undue potter exercised by successful and<br />

energetic enterprise and fostered and developed<br />

by the sjcophancy of the ministry and the<br />

supineness of the monarchy, must prove nltt.<br />

mutely disastrous to the welfare of the people<br />

at large and the whole country, Reciprocity,<br />

lUiiiliKrintiiuiifii, open competition, a fair<br />

field anil no fator, these are the things that<br />

contribute to a nation's perpetuity and pros,<br />

perity. with the methods of old<br />

commercial corporations, the tried fliends of<br />

past years j unrescrtcd encouragement of uni-<br />

versal capital 1 the willing observance or con.<br />

finned, treaty obligations, such arc interests as<br />

well at duties. I'ultiolism does not lie In the<br />

direction of growing ni'inonoly- - or the short, I<br />

sighted promotion of at<br />

the cost and sacrifice of anything and every,<br />

thing in (he way. Let Hawaii he just as well<br />

as generous, as she can easily alfotd lo lie, to<br />

her ciliiens and corporations alike, and she<br />

will Ihiive none the less and lie not the loser<br />

in the end.<br />

One might quote at length from Mr.<br />

Artec. It an inconvenient daily had<br />

room for sayiuu only that Mr. Ad<br />

found Mr. Gibson "a fine old fellow, 1<br />

It must be nrtmiltcrt that<br />

Mr, Gibson is not wholly liked or<br />

And, lastly, Mr. Max Tsuiblcs. A<br />

good fellow is Tnubles, A wit, were<br />

lie more spontaneous; a humorist,<br />

were he less elaborate; a reasoncr,<br />

were he less laboriously analytical ; a<br />

brilliant word painter, bad he ever<br />

taken the pains to le.irn the difference<br />

Vet the phrase "good fellow" is not<br />

enough fitly to characterise Mr, Taii-bles- .<br />

lie is ,1 gentleman, n business<br />

man, a man ol reading, of critical<br />

study, of an original way of looking at<br />

things. If his original way of looking<br />

at things included the<br />

faculty of looking nt both sides, Mr.<br />

Inubles would be a belter critic of<br />

Hawaiian affairs. Like Mr, Adec, Mr.<br />

Taublcs has something to say of Haw-<br />

aiian politics. His first letter from<br />

here was dated January 20th. He<br />

writes :<br />

The Islanders arc upon Ihc eve of an elec-<br />

tion ; there arc two tickets In the fiald, the<br />

" Ins" and the "Outs," and the transplanted<br />

custom of villllication cmplojs one xirlloti of<br />

the local press, in n purely brotherly spirit, so<br />

as to almrd the other side an opHriunity for<br />

extenuating leaders ; otherwise partisanship<br />

docs not seem to be vigorously pronounced.<br />

" Vilification," Mr. Taublcs, "vilifica-<br />

tion " I Tis not vilification to call a<br />

spade, a "spade"; or to speak disres-<br />

pectfully of the knave of the same suit.<br />

It is exceedingly disagreeable after one<br />

has been to the pains of explaining to<br />

Mr. Taublcs that virtue, morality, all<br />

the Christian graces and the Saturday<br />

Press were pitted against the world, the<br />

flesh and the Gibson to find Mr.<br />

Taublcs ungratefully prating about "vili-<br />

fication," As the usual "journalist"<br />

hath it " Vilification " forsooth I I I<br />

Again the textual Taublcs :<br />

The government of the islands is of a satis-<br />

factory character. The king and his cabinet<br />

arc frequently criticised by a certain faction of<br />

malcontents, but the stubliorn facts of an ad-<br />

ministration which maintains good order and<br />

security of property nnd person nt per cent<br />

taxation, and which constantly adds to the<br />

wealth of Ihc slate by internal improvements<br />

and by subsidiiing and encouraging lines of<br />

communication, settlement and immigration,<br />

cannot but succeed In silencing all opposition.<br />

The old missionary stock, of whom the<br />

majority nf the malcontents are composed, arc<br />

afflicted by the hereditary disorder of acute<br />

"goscrnorilis," and being Incontinently<br />

shelved ( rrgo, not licing dependent tiion gov-<br />

ernment patronage ) choose the title of inde-<br />

pendents. There arc, no doubt, some hone'st<br />

men in their ranks, but it is equally apparent<br />

that they lack ability, for whatever of im-<br />

provements anil general prosperity the govern-<br />

ment may have neglected can be charged to<br />

their headstrong antagonism lo the march of<br />

progress, and whatever credit is due to them<br />

for their civilizing Influences they have long<br />

since discounted and fully collected in worldly<br />

possessions.<br />

If Mr. Taubles had reflected over<br />

the concluding paragraph long enough<br />

to ask his most intimate acquaintances<br />

here their opinion of the paragraph<br />

quoted they would have said of the<br />

first three sentences : " Rot, my boy,<br />

rot I Don't print it I" and of the last<br />

uiciiii. - nuuiu nave saiu : mat is<br />

false, Taubles, cruelly, almost brutally<br />

false, Taubles ; you arc a gentleman,<br />

Taubles, and you can't afford to herd<br />

with the sort of vermin who talk and<br />

think that sort of thing, Taubles."<br />

" Revenge," poor Max, " is sweet"<br />

Shall one stay his ruthless band when<br />

he has such a pretty brick as this to<br />

shy ? Marry, no I<br />

From the Wasp of the 1st instant.<br />

Nothing affords us more pleasure than find-<br />

ing arid giving proper setting gems of local<br />

literature. The Examiner has lone been our<br />

chief source of happiness in this regard and is<br />

like to prove a tcry diamond field since it has<br />

laid on a new genius who signs himself "Ichi<br />

Han." Ichi. if wc may thus familiarly address<br />

him, has recently taken a trip to Hawaii, and<br />

like an ordinary mortal was obliged to go by<br />

sea, nence tins gem :<br />

The seascape is ever charming with its<br />

ellcrvescent hiss, protests against the rude<br />

invasion, or, leaning over the rail, one looks<br />

desire to "stand well" with his sub-<br />

jects and the world in general. Hut,<br />

by a long course of fulsome flattery,<br />

untruthful in reasoning and interested<br />

in its promptings, the present ruler has<br />

conic so to exaggerate the importance<br />

of his kingship that the community is<br />

kept at a distance, while the king, sur-<br />

rounded by supernumeraries and<br />

flunkies, is kept from a proper under-<br />

standing of things as they are. If he<br />

goes out for a sail in his boat the fact<br />

is chronicled by die toady organ not<br />

as a bit of legitimate news, but as a<br />

chance to say that the toady minister<br />

of foreign affairs ate a toad on that<br />

occasion for the king's amusement.<br />

The ministers of the king's cabinet<br />

servants of the public, if they do their<br />

duty are heralded as excellency this<br />

and excellency that, to add" incense to<br />

the censor swung by the "venerable<br />

stipendiary loyalist." They are the<br />

king's best friends who try to bring out<br />

the good that is in him, and to dis-<br />

courage every evidence of fol de rol<br />

calculated to make cynics sneer and<br />

wise men sigh. Has their ever been<br />

any desire to deny the king's right<br />

to enjoy a handsome salary, to enter-<br />

tain foreign guests appropriately, to<br />

live as becomes the chief magistrate<br />

ol a respectable though tiny common-<br />

wealth ? Hut wc do deny his right to de-<br />

mand extraordinary expenses. Such<br />

action is unjust, improgrcssive and des-<br />

tructive of the people's vested rights in<br />

the commonwealth which means, free<br />

dom from excessive taxation and a wise<br />

expenditure of public revenues.<br />

" We desire to see the work of the in-<br />

coming legislature amount to some-<br />

thing. Unnumbered schemes are<br />

knocking at the gates oflcjislation and<br />

clamor to be heard. Among them are<br />

schemes good, bad and indifferent.<br />

Men with axes to grind are not neces<br />

sarily public enemies. Their axes may<br />

do good work in the service of the<br />

nation if the men who ply them be<br />

honest. It will take both wise and un<br />

selfish legislation to distinguish between<br />

schemes that arc clearly in the public<br />

interest and those which are planned<br />

in tnc interests ot jobbery. Wc want<br />

tne king's irtcnus to show him just<br />

ms ocst tveiiarc and that of his iamtly<br />

best may be served. That welfare lies<br />

far away from any purely selfish scheme<br />

tvtncii may be put forward for his own<br />

emolument or mat ot his tamily or<br />

connections. Wc arc aware that this<br />

N not the vein in which the false friends<br />

who flatter, truckle and deceive the<br />

king love best to write and talk. Hut<br />

ttis the honest way. Let the king<br />

keep himself and his satellites out ot<br />

politics and let hint go in for states-<br />

manship, and the confidence and<br />

friendship of his people will return to<br />

him.<br />

"We arc fully aware that discussion of<br />

King Kalakaua by the indeicndcnt<br />

press and by independent speakers has<br />

been very far from uniform courtesy or<br />

uniform justice. Hut enough whole-som- e<br />

truth has been told to de-<br />

mand and deserve the earnest con-<br />

sideration of the king and of hi<br />

friends. It is, of course, impossible<br />

that the king should either like or hate<br />

confidence tit men ttho have abused<br />

him or who he believes have wronged<br />

him. llut among his best friends are<br />

men who possess the public confidence<br />

to the full. It is for those men to rise<br />

to the level of the situation. Let them<br />

urge upon King Kalakaua the neces-<br />

sity of legislation that shall be national<br />

in iiuortance and that shall put purely<br />

(lersonal aims aside. Let them act so<br />

as to bring the king and his foreign<br />

subjects together. Ut them help the<br />

king and the community to a better<br />

understanding and though they may<br />

earn temiorary dislike, and lw for a<br />

while wholly misunderstood the<br />

of their own consciences will<br />

mean, in the long run, the approval of<br />

the nation."<br />

To illustrate the fact that honest<br />

Independents hate fwiuently to suffer<br />

in the estimation of those honest friends<br />

ttho arc at the same lime friendly to<br />

Kin;' Kalakaua, the following true<br />

.story is worth reading "the talc is<br />

told as the song was sungfi<br />

only plausible tl.iitn wliiih has cer<br />

been put fortt.irtl in behalf of the pres-<br />

ent management. A more liberal nml<br />

humane treatment of the lepers has<br />

been a subjeit on whuh Mr. Gibson<br />

his harped throughout his whole pul-lii- :<br />

tareer in these islands In all the<br />

various parts of whic.li he has pla)ed<br />

suite his advent in this tountry, lie has<br />

ueer failed to make humanity his<br />

" spit ialty." Whether editing an hide<br />

prudent journal, or leading a desperate<br />

opposition in the national legislature,<br />

or sitting in the seat of power and nil<br />

llioruy, m: u.is pi.ijeo, wuu many aria<br />

tions, the same tunc. Who does not<br />

remember with w hat pathetic eloipieuce<br />

he was wont to plead for these poor<br />

people? Who can h,io forgotten the<br />

harrowing reritals of their physical suf<br />

ferings with which he was wont to cur<br />

tile our blood, or his touching descrip<br />

tion of their mental anguish when torn<br />

from friends anil home and hurried<br />

away to a living tomb at Kalawao?<br />

Shullliug and dodging, squirming and<br />

twisting with referente to almost ever)<br />

question of public policy, be nccr<br />

filled to pleatl for liberality, kindness<br />

and consideration in dealing with the<br />

lepers.<br />

And now, after twenty sears of<br />

maneuvering and scheming, of pl.iusi<br />

hie professions and unlimited promises,<br />

the great Hawaiian Pecksniff is in<br />

power. Ho is president of the board<br />

of health rather, he is Hit hoard. The<br />

two or three figuichcads who, for a<br />

consideration, have allowed their names<br />

to appear as his associates, may be dis-<br />

missed as of absolutely no account<br />

whatever. Now, if ever, the polity of<br />

kindness and humanity should have<br />

free course and bring forth its perfect<br />

fruits. Now, should that tender<br />

tlioughtfulness and losing care of whkh<br />

the benign and merciful Gibson has<br />

preached so constantly and for so long,<br />

be seen in every provision (or these un-<br />

happy people. Especially ami above<br />

all things should the branch leper hos-<br />

pital, situated right here in Honolulu,<br />

within five minutes' ride of the office<br />

and residence of the president of the<br />

boartl, in constant telephonic commu-<br />

nication day and night, and adminis-<br />

tered almost literally under his very<br />

cje, exhibit in their fullest perfection<br />

the beauties of his benevolent rule.<br />

Here, directly under his control where<br />

he can .see them and converse with<br />

them every day. and acquaint himself<br />

with all their wants, are two hundred of<br />

these very people over whose misfor-<br />

tunes and sufferings his great heart has<br />

yearned with such an unutterable love.<br />

And what do we see? We sec a<br />

fellow who calls himself II. Van<br />

Giesen, whose character and antece-<br />

dents the philantrophic Gibson dare<br />

not make public, but whose language<br />

and manners speak for themselves, in<br />

charge of the branch hospital. We<br />

see him strutting about with a police-<br />

man's badge on his coat and a revol-<br />

ver sticking out of his pocket, playing<br />

by virtue of the authority estetl in<br />

him by this same Gibson, the bully and<br />

the tyrant over a lot of miserable crea-<br />

tures whom fate mid Gibson have put<br />

at his mercy. We see, him abusing his<br />

power so grossly that even the mild and<br />

tractable kanaka at length turns upon<br />

the oppressor. We see him arrrestmg,<br />

imprisoning and punishing men without<br />

pioeess of law. We see him, deciding<br />

what punishment is due to them who<br />

have offended or injured him, and in<br />

Hiding that law himself. We hear him<br />

threatening whom he will send to<br />

Molokai and sec him sending them<br />

there. And finally we see all his pro<br />

ceedings virtually endorsed and con-<br />

doned by the great apostle of humani-<br />

ty Gibson. We have inquired into<br />

the character of this man who calls<br />

himself Van Giesen; we have inquired<br />

into his habitual language and manners<br />

and the spirit and methods of his ad-<br />

ministration, and we find the facts fully<br />

justify, and more than justify the lan-<br />

guage we have used. II is retention in<br />

his picscnt position is a wrong to the<br />

lepers, an insult 10 humanity and an<br />

outrage on common decency.<br />

Witty local editorial in the Itulletiu :<br />

"Concerning the Planters Monthly the<br />

Saturday l'rcss says : 'Considered from<br />

the planters' standpoint, the March<br />

number is a valuable and, possibly, an<br />

interesting one.' A subset iber to both<br />

uper says that, from the public<br />

"standpoint," the last number of the<br />

Saturday I'ress is hardly a 'valuable<br />

and interesting one.'" It is evident<br />

that our critical subscriber who is ob-<br />

viously an anuiiymunkle has carefully<br />

read the Tress. It was not expected,<br />

of course, that anything the l'rcss<br />

might say would please an aiionymun-Lie- .<br />

On the first page this week is print<br />

ed an editorial lay sermon on the de-<br />

sirability of harmonizing the political<br />

differences of the nation so as to brinj<br />

the brains, the manhood and best busi<br />

ness euse of the kingdom in better<br />

accord with the crown. W'e believe<br />

this may lie brought about if honorable<br />

concessions be made on both sides.<br />

We all know something of Mr. Gibson's<br />

virctihed bcheme to array the brown<br />

skin against the while And we think<br />

all those who have family and proper-<br />

ty iiiieicits at stake wish it might be<br />

stopped.<br />

Hy some sad mistake the Advertiser<br />

1 ouditioits of ill health in mind and<br />

in the writer's practice "The more<br />

pla) tune oii give a clerk the more he<br />

wants " We do not think the fails<br />

bear out the assertion. We earnestly<br />

lcliee that every employer in lion<br />

oliilu would bo better off pet iminrily if<br />

Saturday were a half holiday in every<br />

stole, every faitory and every trade in<br />

Honolulu. CliriMnn ticoplc who are<br />

unwilling to allow jmmg mm to play<br />

ball on Sunda)s ought to make dome<br />

sairifiies to facilitate such play on<br />

Saturday afternoons. Itut the conces-<br />

sions ought to be nit'tual. If<br />

concede to their employes half<br />

of every Saturday or, to one half the<br />

forte, half of every other .Saturdiy<br />

employes ought to make every effort to<br />

deserve the lavor If the holiday be<br />

spent on the ball ground, m the tennis<br />

c our t, in racing boats in the harbor, in<br />

1 limbing 'I antalus, on horseback or in<br />

sonic improving study, the employer is<br />

almost t ci tain to reap a portion of the<br />

benefit. If the time be spent in listless<br />

lounging, at home or on the streets, if<br />

it be spent in saloons or hula houses, it<br />

were bettei that the noses of i lerks or<br />

workmen so employed were kept close<br />

to the grindstone of continuous toil.<br />

In man) cases the half holiday system<br />

would be abused , in many more cases<br />

it would be improved, we think. At<br />

any rate, it ought to have a fair trial,<br />

and stub a trial may be had in only<br />

one way. Let a thorough understand-<br />

ing be arrived at by employers and<br />

clerks, after a frank, Iree anil full ths<br />

cussion. I'lien, it a majority of em<br />

ployers agree to the movement, let it<br />

lie steadfastly continued, no mallei<br />

who refuses to fall into line. We think<br />

the impartial public is with the young<br />

men in this movement and that tlm,c<br />

employers who make all reasonable<br />

concessions will be supported by the<br />

community.<br />

There is an objection made to the<br />

holidays that they<br />

woultl nit onvenience trade as now af-<br />

fected by steamer travel, ami prevent<br />

laborers, artisans, and t lerks themselves<br />

from taking advantage of the present<br />

p.m. cessation of mechanical work on<br />

Saturdays, and doing their trading at<br />

that hour. This might be obviated by<br />

having all the stores kept open until<br />

t p.m. Fridays Hy such a system all<br />

woultl have a chance to do their buy-<br />

ing without taking the tune of em-<br />

ployers, or preventing the establish-<br />

ment of .1 general half holiday A con-<br />

temporary thinks Wednesday a better<br />

day than Saturday to take a half holi<br />

day from. We do not think so. Itut<br />

if a majority of employers think so<br />

we will cheerfully endorse the new idea,<br />

Hut talking and writing about it will<br />

not bring it about. What is needed is<br />

organisation.<br />

It is of course recognized that Satur<br />

day is now a steamer day, and that it is<br />

impracticable lor all stores to close at a<br />

unitorm noun Hut when the business<br />

of stores requires them to be open be-<br />

cause of steamer traffic a minimum of<br />

clerks might be retained one, if one<br />

be enough; and the others permitted to<br />

go to their recreations, Saturday after<br />

noon work continuing in rotation. We<br />

hope employers will not dismiss this<br />

subject with a shrug and a smile. We<br />

hope clerks and woikmcn will not be<br />

too easily discouraged. What are we<br />

all working for, "anyhow?" Is it for<br />

better clothing, more to eat, or a "nest<br />

egg?" Let employes show employers<br />

that they deserve their holidays. Let<br />

employers remember when they also<br />

had masters over them. Let citizens<br />

remember that in the health and con<br />

tentment of a neonlc lies the , best<br />

guarantee of stability in public order<br />

and 111 trade; and let them consider<br />

well the proposition that a eeneral Sat<br />

urday half holiday is in the interests of<br />

both health and happiness.<br />

The San Frant iscans as noted be<br />

fore are waking up to the importance<br />

ot having the I'aciuc Coast adequately<br />

defended by both forts and ironclads.<br />

The Bulletin of the ist instant savs :<br />

' If congress does not do something for<br />

the protection of our coasts, it will be<br />

criminally negligent of the national in-<br />

terests. The whole world knows our<br />

unprotected state as well as we do our-<br />

selves. The extraordinary phase of<br />

the matter is, that while our fortifica-<br />

tions are going to decay, there is more<br />

money in the treasury than congress<br />

knows what In tlo with. It was only<br />

yesterday that a sharped eyedcongressu<br />

man discovered another method of<br />

prying open the doors of the treasury<br />

in the matter of pensions. Our weak<br />

and defenseless condition has 'already<br />

brought on some rebuffs. Our govern-<br />

ment did not cut much of a figure in<br />

the late war between Chile and Peru.<br />

On the contraiy it had to put up with<br />

something like snubbing l'ossibly<br />

Dismarck would have display ctl more<br />

courtesy in his treatment of the Lasker<br />

resolutions if our fortthcations were in<br />

proper condition, ami our ironclad<br />

navy ready to put to sea. The friction<br />

on the subject ol pork is likely o soon<br />

disappear. Turkey anil Greece have<br />

rescinded the rules excluding it.<br />

France is about to do the simc. Hut<br />

it may be succeeded by some other<br />

strained relation which may try our<br />

tempers more severely. The nation or<br />

the mau.vvlio is the most ready to fight<br />

has usually the least of it to da"<br />

g -- ! iiiiw.i mi m<br />

Mr. N. F. lUirgess has initiated the<br />

eight-hou- r movement by making that<br />

the standard for his own employe's.<br />

Severe critic im has been expressed at<br />

action which threatens to disturb the<br />

hitherto amicable and satisfm tory re-<br />

lations hitherto existing between arti-<br />

sans and employers, here. It would<br />

have been lietter for the labor market<br />

if the move might have been made<br />

after careful consultation among all<br />

eiiiploycrgp In labor mailer:, it is al<br />

ways best to make basic slowly.<br />

In times like these it does not do<br />

to crow until we get out of the woods.<br />

In the recent debate in the United Stales<br />

Senate, on the creation of an American navy,<br />

Senator Miller of California, said he was in<br />

favor of making a liberal appropriation for<br />

budding a navy. He was in favor of construct-<br />

ing American from American<br />

material, by American workmen ; to be man<br />

aged by American seamen. The United States<br />

should be prepared to meet the encroachment<br />

of those who may become jealous of her pro<br />

gress. The example pf free government and<br />

free institutions is spreading tlV'contagion of<br />

free thought and freedom of action among all<br />

the peoples of the globe, and is engendering<br />

an instinct of hatred, malice and unfriendli-<br />

ness of imperialists and monarchists through-<br />

out the whole world. He wanted to See<br />

America ready to resent any insults that might<br />

be heaped on her, come from what quarter they<br />

miy. The bill was being debated when the<br />

last mail left San l'rancisco.<br />

The French are ambitious to obtain the<br />

commerce of Central Africa, an 1 the announce-<br />

ment of Count dc Lesseps that he will soon<br />

begin work on the $13,000,000 canal, by<br />

which he hopes to pour water from the Medi-<br />

terranean to flood the Desert of Sahara, indi-<br />

cates that Frenchmen arc solicitous lest l'ng-tin- d<br />

should obtain supremacy in the trade<br />

which ere long must flow from the heart of<br />

Africa to Mediterranean ports. Should Eng-<br />

land restore the tranquility of the Soudan, a<br />

railway will soon be built from Suakin on the<br />

Red Sea, to the last cataract of the Nile, a<br />

distance of only 340 miles, and thus England<br />

will obtain the trade of 50,000,000 Soudanese.<br />

Hy converting the Desert of Sahara into a sea,<br />

France not only hopes to give Tunis and<br />

Algeria an insular position, but also to make it<br />

possible for her ships to sad directly to Sou-<br />

danese ports, and the construction of a railway<br />

from one of the projected vorts of the aitificia<br />

sea to the very heart of Africa would not be<br />

long ixMtponcd, should M. de Lesseps' scheme<br />

pros e successful.<br />

The a bill, as passed by<br />

the United States House of Representatives,<br />

provides tint the commissioner of agriculture<br />

shall organize a bureau ol animal industry and<br />

appoints a chief thereof, whose duty it shall be<br />

to investigate and report upon the number,<br />

value and condition of domestic animals of Ihe<br />

United States, and also the causes of con<br />

tagious am communicable diseases among<br />

them, and means for prevention and cure of<br />

cometent agents whose duty it shall lie to re--<br />

ort upon the best methods of treating, tians- -<br />

otting and caring for animals, And means lo<br />

be adopted for the suppression and extirpation<br />

of contagious pleuro pneumonia. 1 he bill<br />

flintier provides that the commissioner of agri<br />

culture may expend so much money appro<br />

priated by this act as may be, necessity in pay-in- g<br />

for animals it is deemed necessary lo<br />

slaughter, and In such disinfection and othei<br />

means as may Ikj necessary to extirute disease.<br />

The authorities of the Hales slull pay one-hal- f<br />

Ihe expense of the animals it is deemed neces-<br />

sary to slaughter, and one-ha- of the cost of<br />

disinfection and care of herds of cattle. It<br />

prohibits the transportation fiom one state to<br />

another of any live stock affected with any<br />

contagious or infectious disease, and provides<br />

for the prosecution of any (urson violating this<br />

prohibition. 1 he sum of $250,000 is appro-<br />

Gladstone recently introduced into the llrit-is- h<br />

House of Commons a bill for the extension<br />

of Ihe franchise. He had this to My In its<br />

supMit 1 To introduce separate franchise-bill- s<br />

for England, Ireland and Scotland, with<br />

the prospect of carry ing the English and Scotch<br />

lulls, and leaving Ihe Irish bill to take its<br />

chances, would lie altogether impracticable.<br />

The arguments In favor of 4 uniform lull was<br />

unanswerable. Nothing could Induce hint to<br />

abondon such a bill. A redistribution of par-<br />

liamentary constituencies mutt follow reform<br />

of the franchise. If the two question sverc<br />

would furnish 1,300000, Ireland 400,00, ano<br />

Scotlmd 200,000. This result wsw certainly<br />

worth attaining. If the house took a broad<br />

view of the mailer, enfranchisement must lie<br />

considered desirable. The nple were trust<br />

worthy," and m voters under the constitution<br />

were the strenghth of the constliutliin. If<br />

these measures should become law, then their<br />

condiments would form a mass,<br />

who would rally to the support of Ihe cnnstl<br />

President Arthur sent to congros on Ihe<br />

20th ultimo, a message Inclosing the rejuiil of<br />

Ihccivil service commissioners, nml heartily<br />

Indorsing their work. He also recommended<br />

an appropriation to enable the commission to<br />

continue its work, rhe rcjuirl makes a volutin-o- f<br />

slxly-neve- closely printed ages. Uron<br />

the subject of xlitical iMnesAmenls the reKirt<br />

says that there have lieen several violations of<br />

the law, but the Irilling sums by Ihe<br />

illegal tiracliceccMed on attention lieftig called<br />

from feilcr.il officers since the act went into<br />

cited, was not more linn one-ha- or one<br />

fourth as much as formerly. The evils of the<br />

Kiils system are set forlh at great length, and<br />

the licncfits derived from competitive cximina<br />

lions fully described. The opinion is ex<br />

pressed that a salutary effect would follow the<br />

selection of chiefs of bureaus, postmasters and<br />

collectors nt large offices from sidiordmatos<br />

who would be exerieiicetl. Soldiers and sail,<br />

ors houoraaly disclnrged by reason of dissn-biht-<br />

if cnjKililc, arc preferred, and nowhere<br />

is Ihetc any advantigc allowed by reison of<br />

lax. 'I he commission hold that the power of<br />

removal and lis exercise for just reasons, ate<br />

essential both lo the discipline and efficiency<br />

of the public service. It ipicnrs from the<br />

statistics presented with the reort that sisly<br />

per cent of those who entered the service<br />

through conqictJlivc examination were edu<br />

caled in common schools alone, and the com-<br />

mission consider it unquestionable that the na-<br />

tion, by bestowing ils offices Uon the most<br />

meritorious of those whom the states have 11I11<br />

catcd aljhe public cxtiense, will greatly honor<br />

and stimulate the public school system of Ihe<br />

country. 'Ihe report gives txtracls from a<br />

lirge number of tellers received from<br />

and collectors, showing that great<br />

benefit his accrued to the public service by the<br />

enforcement of the civil service rules. It is<br />

sugggested lint a party test be no longer ap<br />

plied in the selection of collectors and<br />

and that the scry corrupt exercise of<br />

wcr in the nomination, promotion, transfer<br />

or confirmation, even though the corrupt con-<br />

sideration may not be n thing of value, should<br />

be an offense under the hnbery laws. The<br />

commission in conclusion declare the civil<br />

service net a success, and do not doubt that<br />

the most difficult point his been pissed.<br />

work than that which has gained it such<br />

liberal patronage and such willing ap-<br />

preciation from the Honolulu trade.<br />

It Advertises No Specialities,<br />

but is able to do all sorts, sizes,<br />

and conditions of Hook-bindin-<br />

Ruling, ltterinj;, and l'aer cutting<br />

as well as in San Francisco, and at<br />

moderate prices.<br />

At This Complete Uindekv<br />

newspaiMrs, magazines, pamphlets, and<br />

sheet music are neatly and simply or<br />

elegantly and sumptuously bound, as<br />

taste and pocket may demand. Old<br />

books are carefully and firmly rebound<br />

All Descriptions of Itlank<br />

Hooks are made to order at as low-rate-s<br />

as are consistent with first-clas- s<br />

work. The liindery is now using<br />

WWon's " Record " and " Ledger "<br />

paer for all first-clas- s work. A large<br />

invoice of this justly celebrated stock<br />

lias just been received from New York.<br />

The Machinery Used is all of<br />

improved pattern. The " ruling ma-<br />

chine," with its new patent " striker,"<br />

is equal to any in use in cither the<br />

United States or the Colonics, and its<br />

recent work speaks for itself, being,<br />

also, complimentary to the workman<br />

who runs the machine. The other<br />

machines used in the liindery are for<br />

cutting paper rapidly, for agiug and<br />

numbering, for perforating, for card<br />

and usteloard cutting, and for press-<br />

when, the next morning, I opened my stores:,<br />

this became rapture doubly<br />

Words on not tell the silent delight with<br />

which old and Jou'ng, black ami white,<br />

surveyed these fairy-lik- e structures, jet un-<br />

broken and unmended.<br />

l'crennial summer reigned that autumn day<br />

in that reunited family. It reigned the next<br />

day, and the next. It would have reigned till<br />

now if the " and the other things<br />

would last as long as the de-<br />

clare ; and what is more, the<br />

would have reigned till now, President Davis<br />

and General Lte! but for that great misery,<br />

which all families which cul-<br />

minated in our great misfortune.<br />

I was up in the ceilar closet one day, looking<br />

for an old parade cap of mine, which I thought,<br />

though it was my thin! best, might look lietler<br />

than my second best, which I had worn ever<br />

since my best was lost at the Seven l'incs. I<br />

say 1 was standing on the lower shelf of the<br />

cedar closet, when, as I stepped along In the<br />

darkness, my right foot caught in a bit of wire,<br />

my left did not give way in time, and I fell,<br />

with a small wooden hat-bo- in my hand, full<br />

on the floor. The croner of the hat-bo- struck<br />

me just below the second frontal sinus and I<br />

fainted away.<br />

When I came to myself I was in the blue<br />

chamber j I had vinegar ou a brown paper on<br />

my forehead; the room was dark, and I found<br />

mother sitting by me, glad enough indeed to<br />

hear my voice, and to know- - that I knew her.<br />

It was some times before I fully understood<br />

what had Then she brought me a<br />

cup of tea, and I, imitc refreshed, said I must<br />

go to my office.<br />

"Office, my child 1" saiit she. "Your leg<br />

is broken above the ankle; you will not move<br />

these six weeks. Where do ) ou suppose j on<br />

are?"<br />

Till then I hail no notion tint it was Ivc<br />

minutes since I went into the cloet. When<br />

she told me the time five in the afternoon<br />

signature. They were to go at ten that morn-<br />

Well, I dkl not scold Julia. It was cer-<br />

lITe lower shelf of her cedar closet. I told her<br />

to make a mtct of the things, and the first<br />

tinie we went to drive" 1 hove the whole shape-lea- n<br />

heap into the river, without saving mass<br />

for them.<br />

Hut let nn man think, or no woman, that<br />

tills was the end of troubles. As I look liack<br />

on thai winter, and on the spring of 1S65, it<br />

seems to me only the beginning. I got out<br />

on crutches at last ; I had the office transferred<br />

to my house, to that I.ifarge and Hepburn<br />

could work there nights, and communicate<br />

with me when 1 could not go out ; but morn-<br />

ings I hobbled up to the depaitment, and sat<br />

with the chief, and took his orders. Ah 111c 1<br />

shall I soon forget that dunp winter morning,<br />

when we all liad such hope at the office ? One<br />

or two of the army fellows looked in at the<br />

window as they ran bv, and wc knew tint they<br />

felt well ; and though f would not ask Old<br />

Wick as wc had the chief what<br />

was in the wind, I knew llie time had come,<br />

and that the lion meant to break the net this<br />

lime. I made an excuse to go home earlier<br />

than usual; tode down lo the house in the<br />

mijor's ambulance, I remember ; and hopped<br />

in, to surprise Julia with the good news, only<br />

to find lliat the whole house was in lhat quiet<br />

uproar which shows that something bad has<br />

happened of a sudden<br />

"What is it, Chloe ?" said I, as the old<br />

wench rushed by ntc with n bucket of water.<br />

" Poor Mr. George, I 'fraid lie's dead,<br />

sah 1"<br />

And there he really was dear, handsome,<br />

bright George Schaff the delight of all the<br />

nicest girls of Richmond ; he lay there on<br />

Aunt Knnicc's bed on the ground door, where<br />

they had brought him in. Ife was not dead<br />

and he did not die. He is making cotton in<br />

Texas now, Hut he looked mighty near it<br />

then. The deep cut in hi; head was the worst<br />

I had ever seen, and the blow confused every<br />

thing. When McGregor got round, lie said<br />

it was not hopeless; but we were all turned<br />

out of the room, and, viith one thing and<br />

another, ha got the Iioy out of the swoon, and<br />

somehow it proved his head was not broken,<br />

ino, liut poor (jeorge swears to this day it<br />

was better it liad been, if it could only have<br />

been broken the right way, and on the right<br />

field. I' or lhat evening we heard that every<br />

thing had gone wrong in the surprise. There<br />

we bad been waiting for one of those early<br />

fogs, and at last the fog had come. And Jubal<br />

Early hid, that morning, pushed out every<br />

man he had, that could stand; and they lay<br />

hid for three mortal hours, within I don't<br />

know how near the picket line at Fort Pow-<br />

hatan, only waiting for the shot which John<br />

Streight's-part- were to fire at Wilson's Wharf,<br />

as soon as somebody on our left center ad-<br />

vanced in force, on the eneinv's line above<br />

Turkey Island stretching across to Nansemond.<br />

I nm not in the war department, and I forget<br />

whether he was lo advance tn larbttle or by<br />

hthn of infantry. Hut he was to advance<br />

somehow; and he knew how, and when<br />

he advanced, von sec, that other man<br />

lower down was to rush in, and as soon<br />

as Uarly heard him he was to sur-<br />

prise Powhatan, jou see; and then,<br />

if jou hive understood me. Grant and lluthr<br />

and the whole rig of them would have been<br />

cutofffiom their supplies, would have had to<br />

fight a battle for which they w ere not prepared,<br />

with their right made irto a new left, and<br />

their old left unexpectedly advanced at an<br />

oblique angle from their center ; and would<br />

not that have been the end of them?<br />

Well, that never happened. And the reason<br />

St never happened was, that poor George<br />

Schaff, with the last fatal order for this man<br />

whoe name 1 forget I the same who was after-<br />

ward killed the daj before High Bridge), un-<br />

dertook to save lime by cutting across behind<br />

my house, from I'ranUin to Green Streets.<br />

You know how much time he saved they<br />

waited all day for thu order. George told me<br />

afterward that the last thing he remembered<br />

was kissing his hand to Julia, who sat at her<br />

bedroom window. He he thought she<br />

might be the last woman he ever saw this side<br />

of heaven. Just after that, it miuit have been,<br />

his horse thai white Messenger colt old Wil-<br />

liams bred went over like a log, and poor<br />

George was pitched fifteen feet,<br />

against .1 stake there Was in tliat lot. Julia sm<br />

the whole. She rushed out with all the wo-<br />

men, and had just brought him in when I got<br />

home. And that was the reason that the great<br />

promised combination of December, 1S64,<br />

never came oil at all,<br />

1 walked out In the lot, after McGregor<br />

tuined me out of the clumber, to see what<br />

they hid done with the horse, There he lay,<br />

as dead as old Messenger hluuilf. His neck<br />

was broken. And do jou think, 1 looked to<br />

see what lud tripied him. I supposed it was<br />

one of the wp! bandy holes. It was no such<br />

thing. The jsoor wretch Im! tangled his hind-leg- s<br />

iu one of thoMj infernal hoop-wire- s lhat<br />

Chloe had thrown out In the piece when I gave<br />

her new ones. Though I slid not know it then,<br />

those fatal scraps of rusty steel had broken the<br />

neck lhat day of Kotiert Lee's atmy.<br />

Tliat time ! made a row alwut it. I felt too<br />

Imlly to go Into a passign. But k'fore the wo-<br />

men went to bed they were all in the sitting<br />

roov together I talked (o them like a falhtr,<br />

I did not swear, I liad got over that for a<br />

while, in lhat sJx weeks on m)- - Uitk. But I<br />

did say the old wires were infernal luinits, and<br />

that the hoese and pieinises must Ih made rid<br />

of (hem. The aunlj laughed- - though I was<br />

so serious -- ami tlp(icd a, wml to the gills,<br />

The giils wauled to laugh, lmt were afraid to.<br />

And then it came out that the aunts had sold<br />

all their old hoops, (led as tighi'as they 'coukl<br />

tie them, in a great mass of lags. The- - had<br />

The had been in a hurry, and had not<br />

known what made the things so heavy. I<br />

frowned at the dwindle, but they said all was<br />

fair with a peddle- r- and I own I was glad Ihe<br />

things were well out of Richmond. But when<br />

I said I thought it was a mran trick, Lie and<br />

Sarah looked demure, and asked whit in the<br />

world I would have them do with Ihe old<br />

things. Did I expect thern lo walk down<br />

lo the bridge themselves with grr-a- t parcels lo<br />

I told them to tic up all they had in as small<br />

a parcel as they could, ond bring them to nic.<br />

Accordingly, the next day, I found a hand-<br />

some brown paper parcel not so large, con-<br />

sidering and strangely square, considering<br />

which Ihe minxes had mt together and left on<br />

my office tabic. They liad a great frolic over<br />

It. 'I hey had not spared red tape nor red<br />

wax. Very ofiiciil it looked, indeed, and on<br />

the corner, In Sarah's Ixddesl ami<br />

most contorted hand, was written, "Secret<br />

success. And, indeed, I should have taken<br />

it wilh me the next time I went down to the<br />

Tredegar, but tint I happened to dine one<br />

evening with oung Norton, of our gallant<br />

little navy, and a very curiour thing he told us.<br />

We were talking nbout the disappointment<br />

of the combined land attack. I did not tell<br />

what upset poor SchafTs horse ; Indeed, I do<br />

not think those navy men knew the details of<br />

th: disappointment. O'Brien had told me, in<br />

confidence, what I have written down pro-<br />

bably for ihe first lime now. Hut wc were<br />

speaking, in a general way, of the ihsapjioint-men- t.<br />

Norton finished his cigar rather<br />

thoughtfully, and then said : " Well, fellows,<br />

it Is not worth while lo put it in the news-<br />

papers, but what do you suppose upset our<br />

grand naval attack the clay Ihe Yankee gun-bai-<br />

skittled down the river so handsomely?"<br />

" Why," said Allen, who is Norton's d<br />

friend, "they say that sou ran away<br />

from Ihcm as fast as they did from you."<br />

" Do they?" said Norton, grimly. " If jou<br />

say that I'll break your head for jou.<br />

Seriously, men," continued he, "that was a<br />

tn the little Mosquito, or whatever Walter<br />

called his boat, and the spunky little thing ran<br />

down and got us out of the scrape. Walter<br />

did it right well ; if he had had a monitor<br />

THE STORY OP A LOST FORTUNK<br />

I have alnaj-- s had a lingering feeling of re-<br />

sentment toward my father because he was not<br />

a millionaire, and did not leave me the inherit-<br />

ance of a great estate. This feeling was in-<br />

tensified by the knowledge of a custom preva-<br />

lent in his neighborhood and in his time that<br />

would have enabled him to have become the<br />

largest vvoolgrower of this or any other land.<br />

feel stronger upon this subject because the op<br />

portunity was oflered to him and he wantonly.<br />

perhaps I should say thoughtlessly, threw it<br />

away; and because it would have cost him<br />

neither time, thought, care, nor labour, to have<br />

produced the magnificent result which I willset<br />

out in this paper. My father was born in centra!<br />

New York in the year 1787; he is still living,<br />

a hale, hearty man, at the age of ninety-two- .<br />

The custom to which I refer prevailed al the<br />

time of his birth, and he received the benefit<br />

of it. When he came into the world his father<br />

presented him with a sheep, and by the custom<br />

among the farmers of the neighbourhood, any<br />

of them were glad of the opportunity of taking<br />

sneep 10 double once in lour years. It was<br />

understood that the quality of wool and the<br />

character of the animal was to lie preserves!<br />

and not. allowed to deteriorate. The farmer<br />

guarcnteetl against all loss, accident, or<br />

causaltj-- . To illustrate: One ed<br />

Merino sheep entitled the owner to luve<br />

returned to him in four years two mer-<br />

chantable, Merinos, of proper age,<br />

goo! health, and equal in all respects to the<br />

sheep originally received. Four sheep in<br />

eight years, eight sheep In twelve jcars, and so<br />

n in geometrical progression. My grand-<br />

father having then just emigrated from Connec-<br />

ticut to Oneida County in New Yorkthe<br />

Valley of the Mohawk then being the far<br />

West gave to my father upon his birth-da- y<br />

for his birth-da- y present a Merino d<br />

sheep. This sheep was taken by Judge Rod<br />

erlck Morrison, a well to--do farmer of the<br />

county, upon the terms lo double once in four<br />

years. At the age of twenty my father had<br />

thirty-tw- o fine Merinos, and there theaccumu<br />

lation ended I am familiar with the Bibts<br />

niralive of Jacob and Lalun; how Jacob was<br />

fooled by Ihe old man, and had the elder<br />

daughter plajed upon him; how patiently he<br />

toiled another seven j ears for the girl he loved,<br />

and how he plajed the old gentleman with the<br />

am! speckled business, but<br />

never knew exactly how Judge Morrison got<br />

my father's sheep"; tlian i., I never knew the<br />

paiticlars in detail, I only knew that the<br />

cunning ol.l hcotcn gentleman tint gel my<br />

father' thirty-tw- sheep, and gave him hi ex<br />

hange for them his daughter, Clurlollc, aged six<br />

teen, and a silver lupine watch with cylinder cs<br />

capement and combircd Icier movement, run<br />

nlng on jewels. You can see the ruby now un<br />

dcr one of the pivots, for the w atch is still in Ihe<br />

family, a much-piire- relic of the olJcn lime.<br />

I luve never itgarded my mother as a pa;t of<br />

the transaction, nor looked upon her as a part<br />

consideration for the sheep. I have looked<br />

upon the wooing and the marriage of my par<br />

nU as one of the natural incidents of the<br />

i- -<br />

tion, and luve believed thai they would have<br />

marries!, and that I would have beeu born,<br />

altogether Independent oflhc sheep transaction.<br />

Perhaps if my lather had not married, and had<br />

not made a Wedding excuisiiui tu Utica, he<br />

night not have needed a Ltpine watch wjih<br />

a C) lindcr rsapeuient, tunning ou lubies, and<br />

might not luve In-t-n Induced to uit wilh the<br />

sheep, I luveaU jj-- s uuknj upon (he trading<br />

of the sheep for the watch, as an independent<br />

transaction standing tqion its own merits, and<br />

have binned my inHcrml grandfather for having<br />

taken an undue advantage of my father at a<br />

iwriod when he was susceptible to Influuices<br />

other thin metcenary I Invc blamed mjr father<br />

this time he was not more upon his guard, and<br />

thnt he had not the prudence lo belter<br />

protect the Investment mule for him by his<br />

father, In view of the possibilities tint in lime<br />

he might himself Iwcomc a falher, and have a<br />

child, tn whom a large and multiplying herd<br />

of fine Merino sheep would be n very desirable<br />

inheritance. I hive carried on the cilculilion<br />

and figured the Hock of Merinos<br />

that would now he awaiting me if my father<br />

had not changed his flock for the silver watch<br />

which ii now so (invaluable and uninteresting.<br />

and indeed a inlnful heirloom In our family.<br />

At twenty-fo- ur years of ge tny father would<br />

have Ind slxlj'-fo- nr sheep) at Iwcnly-elg- hl<br />

jenrs, one hundred and Iwcnty-cigh- t. The<br />

follow iug table shows the extent of the woolly<br />

inheritance I would now enjoy had my father<br />

lieen content lo have forgone the luxury of a<br />

silver watch.<br />

I have mjself arrived at the age when I can<br />

appreciate wool and know the value of sheep.<br />

I am now fifty-on- very nearly fifty-tw- years<br />

old. I.et us carry on the compulation lo the<br />

age of ninety-two- , to which there is, of course,<br />

every reasonable presumption lhat I shall attain,<br />

and it will lie oliservcd that, not disturbing my<br />

father's investment, and presuming that my<br />

cousins, the Morrisons, would still find it to<br />

llicir advantage to allow our sheep to remain<br />

upon their estates, wc shall sec that our herds<br />

will, when I shall have attained my father's age,<br />

have increased largely. I continue the tabic,<br />

starting with my present age, fifty-tw- years,<br />

and, with S, 64 1, 608 Merino sheep,<br />

it makes the following showing when I shall<br />

have reached ninety of age. Infour jcars<br />

this most serious mistake of rny parent; and if,<br />

in view ofJhe crosses heja? been compelle(Lt<br />

eight thousand two hundred and eleven mi--<br />

THE ROBnP.R WHO ROIIBEU HIMSELF.<br />

The Bishop of Cashed, having occasion lo<br />

visit Dublin accompanied by his wife and<br />

daughter, determined to perform the journey<br />

by easy stages, in his own carriage.<br />

One part of his route was through a wild<br />

and mountainous district ; and the bishop<br />

made a point of quilting his carriage at the<br />

foot of ever j- - hill and walking to the top. On<br />

one of these occasions he had loitered to look<br />

at the scenery, and in so doing suffered his<br />

family and servants to be considerably in ad-<br />

vance; perceiving this, he hastened to make<br />

up for lost time, when a fellow leaped from<br />

behind some loose stones, and accompanying<br />

the flourish of a huge club with a demonbe<br />

jell, demanded "Money I"<br />

The bishop gave the robber all the silver he<br />

had loose in his pocket, hoping that it would<br />

satisfy him ; but he was mistaken.<br />

"And is it with the likes of this I'm after<br />

letting you off? a few paltry tinjiennies t<br />

Arrah, don't stand shivering and shaking<br />

there, but pull out jour purse Immediately, or<br />

I'll bate jou as blue as a whetstone."<br />

His lordship most reluctantly yielded his<br />

well filled purse, sajing in tremulous accents :<br />

" My good fellow, there it is ; don't<br />

nie ; I've forgiven jou all, pray let me depart."<br />

' Fair and softly, if you plase ) as sure as<br />

I'm net a good fellow, I haven't done with<br />

jou jet. I must sarch for jour note-cas- for<br />

I'll engage you have a few bits of paper<br />

at the lunk; so hand it over, or joull<br />

tup sorrow<br />

It was given up. The bishop made an in-<br />

stinctive movement as though anxious to<br />

escape from further pillage.<br />

"Wait a while, or may l I shall get angry<br />

with jou; hand over your watch and seals,<br />

and then you may trudge."<br />

Now t hapiKncd that the divine felt a paiti.<br />

cular regard for his watch not so much from<br />

Its lieing of considerable value, but because it<br />

had been presented to him by his first nation<br />

and he ventured to expostulate.<br />

" Surely jou hive taken enough ; leave me<br />

my watch, and I'll forgive all jou have done,"<br />

" Who ax'd your forgiveness, jou old var-<br />

mint? Don't foice me to do anj thing I'd lie<br />

soijy for but without any more bother, just<br />

give me the watch, or "<br />

And he jerked the bludgeon from his right<br />

liand to his left, spat in Ihe horny iahn of ihe<br />

lanner, and icgrasicd ihj formidable weapon,<br />

as though seriously bent on bringing it Into<br />

operation; this action was not unheeded by his<br />

victim ha drew forth the golden timc-piec-<br />

and, wilh a heavy sigh, handed it to the<br />

spoiler, who, rolling the chain and seals round<br />

il, found some wider aperture in his apparel<br />

into which he crammed II ; ond giving himself<br />

a shake 10 ascertain lhat It had found, by its<br />

own gravity, a place of safely, he laid t<br />

"And now, lc off with you, and thank Ihe<br />

saints that you lave roe without a scratch on<br />

jour skin or the value of jour htlhj rsntjef hull."<br />

Il needed no peruasLoii to induce the bishop<br />

to turn his luck upon the drtpoiUf of his<br />

worMly goods, and, having no wtlghUp carry,<br />

he set offal what equestrian tcimn'ahand<br />

tcmtei." Scarce!, however, had he rcaihcd<br />

Thofootjnd quickly divested Ihe blshopof his<br />

loud laugh ran off, as through his last feat had<br />

MIIIO'S HORSE SENSE.<br />

One day Zadig, walking near a little wood,<br />

saw, hastening lhat way, one of the queen's<br />

chief eunuchs, followed by a troop of officers,<br />

who appeared to be in the greatest anxicl)-- ,<br />

'iuiViirui-l.''- - ' ""'KsniiemnsiTjpl;in<br />

in search of some lost treasure.<br />

" Young man," cried Ihe eunuch, ' luve<br />

you seen the queen's dog ? "<br />

Zadig answered modcstlj, "A bitch, I<br />

hink ; not a dog."<br />

" Quite right," replied the eunuch.<br />

Zadig continued: "Avcrj- - small spaniel,<br />

w!-- has lately hail puppies; she limps with<br />

the left fore-le- and has very long cars.''<br />

"Ah I jou have seen her, then?" said the<br />

breathless eunuch.<br />

"No," answered Zadig, " I liav'c not seen<br />

her ; and I really was not aware tliat the queen<br />

possessed a spaniel."<br />

By an old coincidence, at the very same<br />

time, the handsomest horse in the king's sta<br />

bles' broke away from his groom in the<br />

Babj Ionian plains. The great huntsman and<br />

all his staff were seeking the horse with as<br />

much anxiety as was the eunuch and his peo-<br />

ple the spaniel ; and the grand huntsman asked<br />

Zadig if he had not seen the king's horse go<br />

that waj-- .<br />

"A first-rat- gillopcr, small hoofed, fiv<br />

feet high ; tail, three and a half feet long ;<br />

check-piece- s of the bit of twenty-thre- e carat<br />

gold ; shoes, silv er ? " said Zadig.<br />

"Which way did be "go? Where is hc"<br />

cried the grand huntsman.<br />

" I have not seen nujtliing of the horse, and<br />

I never heard of him before," replied Zadig,<br />

The grand huntsman and the chief eunuch<br />

made sure that Zadig had stolen both the<br />

king's horse and the queen's spaniel; so they<br />

hiled him liefore the high court of Dcsteilum,<br />

which al once condemned him to the knout<br />

and transportation for life to Siberia. But the<br />

sentence was hardly pronounced when the<br />

lost horse and spaniel were found. So the<br />

judges were under the painful necessity of re<br />

considering their decision ; but they fined Zadig<br />

four hundred ounces of gold for sajing he had<br />

seen that which he had not seen.<br />

The first tiling was to pay the fine. After-<br />

ward, Zadig was permitted lo open his defense<br />

to the court, which he did in the following<br />

terms : "Stars of justice,, abysses of knowl-<br />

edge, iniirors of truth, who, gravity is as<br />

that of lead, whose inflexibility is as llut of<br />

iron, who rival the diamond in clearness, and<br />

possess great affinity with gold since I am<br />

permitted lo address jour august assembly, I<br />

swear by Ormutd lhat I luve never seen the<br />

respectable lady-slo- of the queen, nor beheld<br />

the sacrosanct horse of the king of kings. This<br />

is what happened :<br />

"I was taking a walk toward the little wood<br />

near which I subsequently lud the honor to<br />

meet the venerable chief eunuch and the most<br />

illustrious grand huntsman. I noticed the<br />

track, of an animal in the sand, and it was easy<br />

to sec lhat it was that of a small dog.<br />

taint streaks ukii the little clvations of sand<br />

between the footmarks conviced me lhat It was<br />

a she-do- g, with pendent dugs showing ttut<br />

she must have had puppies not many days<br />

since. Other scrapings of sand, which aUajs<br />

by cjpsc to the marks of the s Indi-<br />

cated that she liad very long cars; and as the<br />

Imprint of one foot was always fainter than<br />

thoseofth; other three, I judged that the lady-do- jj<br />

of our august queen was, if I may vcnUre<br />

to say so, a little lame. With respect to the<br />

horse of ibe king of kings, permit me to oh<br />

serve that, wandering through the paths which<br />

traverse the wood, I noticed the marks of<br />

liorsc-shoe- s. They were all equidistant.<br />

'Ah!' said I, ' this b a famous galloper 'In<br />

a narrow alley only seven feet wide, Ihe dost<br />

iim the trunks of the trees s a Iklle<br />

Lashing It from one side to the other, he has<br />

under 1 saw., newly fallen leaves) so I knew<br />

that the horse harbrushnl some W the buiuh-es- ,<br />

properties of whirh I am familiar by expert-nieii- l<br />

Uslly, by Ihe marks which his shoes<br />

left upon pebbles of an other kind, I was led<br />

to think lhat his shoes were of fine silver."<br />

All Ihe judges admired Zadig's profound and<br />

subtle discernment, and the fame of it reached<br />

even Ihe king and Ihe queen. From Ihe ante-<br />

rooms lo the presence-dumbe- Zadlg nunc<br />

was in evcrylxuly's mouth; and although many<br />

of Ihe rmgi were of opinion that he ought to<br />

lie burned as a sorcerer, the king commanded<br />

that the four hundred ounces of gold whichlie<br />

had been fined should lie restored to him. So<br />

the officers of the court went In with the four<br />

hundred ounces; only they retained three hun-<br />

THE LONIIHI YARN ON REC0RI1.<br />

If jou can only spare the time lo read this<br />

through, jou will lie satisfied lint the head line<br />

is not a lict<br />

There was once a certain king, who, like<br />

many Kastcrn kings, was very fond of hearing<br />

stories told. To this amusement he gave up all<br />

his time, but jet he was never satisfied. The<br />

exertions of his courtiers were In vain. He al<br />

last made a proclamation that If any man<br />

should tell him a story lhat should last forever,<br />

he would certainly mitre him his heir and give<br />

the princess, his (laughter, in marriage; but if<br />

any one should pretend he liad such a story and<br />

should fail that is, if the story did come lo an<br />

end he was to have his head cut olT.<br />

I'or such a price as n beautiful princess and<br />

a kingdom, many candidates appeared, and<br />

dreadful long stories some ol them. Some<br />

lasted a week, some a month, and some<br />

six months. Poor fellows, they all spun them<br />

out as long as they possibly could, but all came<br />

to an end, one after another, and the unlucky<br />

story-telle- rs had their heads chopjicil off. At<br />

last came a man who said he had a story that<br />

would last for ever, if his majesty would lie<br />

pleased to give him a trial. I Ic was warned<br />

of his danger. They told him how many<br />

others jd lost their heads; but he said he was<br />

not afraid, so he was brought liefore the king.<br />

He was a man of scry composed and delib-<br />

erate way of speaking, and, after making all<br />

necessary stipulations for hi eating, drinking,<br />

and sleeping, he Ihus licgan:<br />

" O kingl there was once a king who was a<br />

great tjrant; and, desiring to increase his<br />

riches, he seized upon the corn in his king-<br />

dom and put it in an immense granary<br />

which was built on purpose as high as a<br />

moutain. This he did for several j ears until<br />

the granary was quite full to the tcp. He<br />

then stopped doors and windows on all sides.<br />

Hat the bricklajcrs had. by'accident, left a<br />

small hole near the top of the granary, and<br />

there came a flight of locusts and tried to get<br />

at the corn, but the hole was so small that<br />

only one locust could pass through at a time.<br />

So one locust w ent in and earned off one grain<br />

of 'corn, and another locust went in anil<br />

carried off another grain of corn, and then an<br />

another locust went in and carried off another<br />

grain of corn."<br />

He nauuoneinus Irom morning till night<br />

(except when hew a: engaged at his meats) for<br />

about a month, when the king began to be<br />

rather tired with locusts, and interrupted his<br />

story with:<br />

"Well, we have heird enough of Ihe locusts,<br />

we will suppose they helped themselves to all<br />

the corn they wanted to, tell us what happened<br />

afterward."<br />

To which the story-telle- r answered deliber-<br />

ately: "If it please your majesty, it is Im-<br />

possible to tell what happened afterward before<br />

I tell what happened first."<br />

And then he went on again: "And then<br />

another locust went in and carried off another<br />

grain of corn; and then another locust went in<br />

and carried off another grain of com; and then<br />

another locust went in and carried off another<br />

grain ol corn."<br />

"Oh, friend, letup, I am weary of jour<br />

locusts. How soon do jou think they will get<br />

away with the corn?"<br />

To which the story-telle- r made answer:<br />

"Oh, king, who can tell? At the time to<br />

which my story has come the locusts have<br />

cleared a small space; it may lie a cubit each<br />

waj around the hole, and the air Is still dark<br />

w ith locusts on all sides. Hut let the king hav e<br />

patience, and no doubt wc shall have come to<br />

the end of them in time."<br />

Thus encouraged, the king listened on for<br />

another jear, the story-telle- r going still as<br />

before!<br />

"And another locust went in and carried off<br />

another grain of corn; and then another locust<br />

went in and carried off another grain of corn;<br />

and then another locust went in and carried of)<br />

another grain of corn."<br />

At last the king could stand it no longer,<br />

and cried out: "Oh, man, tlut is enough!<br />

Take my daughter! take my kingdom! take<br />

anything, only let me hear no more of the abom<br />

Suable locusts. "<br />

And so the story-telle- r was married to the<br />

king's daughter, and was declared heir to the<br />

throne, and nobodj- - cv er expressed a wish to<br />

hear the rest of the story, for he said it was iin<br />

possible to come (olhe olhci pari of it till he<br />

had done with the locusts. frant K, SlMtjri.<br />

A SHORT llUT YV.RV S VrlSKACTORY TALE.<br />

In the city of Algammon resided the Prince<br />

Ctumpou, who was madly enamoured of the<br />

Lady Capilla. She returned his affectio- n-<br />

unopened.<br />

In the matter of luck-ha- ir the Lady Capilla<br />

was blessed even beyond her deserts. Ilerna<br />

tural pig-- t til was so Intolerably long tlut she cm<br />

plojol two pages to look after it when she<br />

walkesl out; ihe one a few behind her.<br />

the other at the extreme end of the line.<br />

Their names were Dan and Becrtheba, rexci<br />

ivcly.<br />

Aside from salaries to these dependents and<br />

apart .from these considerations of macas-<br />

sar, the possession of all this animal hbmant<br />

was financially unprofitable; the hair market<br />

was buoyant, ami hers represented a brgc<br />

amount of Idle capital. And It was otherwise<br />

a source of annoyance and Irritation; for all<br />

the young men of the city were hotly in love<br />

with her, and skirmishing for a love-loc-<br />

They seldom troubled Dan much, but the<br />

oulljlng Hccithchahad an animated time of il.<br />

He was subject lo constant Incursions, anil<br />

wasaUajsin a riot.<br />

Although the lady Capilla was unwilling to<br />

reciprocate the passion ot Ctumpnu the man,<br />

she was not adverse lo quiet interviews with<br />

Ctumpou the prince. In the course of one of<br />

these, as she sat listening to his carefully<br />

and really artistic arawaU, wilh her<br />

ui lunging out of the window, she suddenly<br />

interrupted hint!<br />

"iff dear Iiince,H she said, "it is all non-tens-<br />

you know, to ask for rny heart; hut I atti<br />

not moan; )uu shall have lock of my hair."<br />

"IM you throk," leplicd the Hincr,<br />

"llijl I eoud be sa sordid 04 to accsqx t sio- -<br />

gle jewel from that glorious crown? I love<br />

llnshalr of yours very ileaily, I admll. Ian<br />

only because of its connection wilh your divine<br />

nenn, hercr that connection, and I shall<br />

value It no more than I would a tail plucked<br />

fmm its native cow."<br />

Thlscomparislon seems lo me a very fine one<br />

but tasles differ, ami lo the !.aily Capilla It<br />

seemed quite Ihe reverse. Hiving indignantly,<br />

she marched away, her queue runningin through<br />

(he Window and gradually tapering off ihe in<br />

lervlcw, as it were. Prince Champion saw lhat<br />

he had missed hit opjiorliinlly, and resolved lo<br />

reiiair his error. Straightway he forged an<br />

order on Beershebi for thirty yardsof love-loc-<br />

To serve this writ he sent hi Inislness parlner;<br />

for Ihe Prince was wont to lieguile his dragging<br />

leisure by lonsorlal diversions In an obscure<br />

quarter of the town. At first Bcctsheln was<br />

sceptical, but when he taw the writing in real<br />

Ink his scruples vanished, and he chopped off<br />

Ihe Souvenir demanded.<br />

Now Clumpou's partner was the court<br />

biibcr, and by the use of a. peculiar hair-oi- l<br />

which Ihe two of ihcm had concocted, they<br />

soon managed to balden the intes of all Ihe<br />

male aristocracy of the place. Then, In sup-pl- y<br />

the demand so created, they devised<br />

beautiful wigs from Ihe Cupula's lost<br />

Ircsscj, which Ihcy sold at a marvellous profit.<br />

And so they were enabled lo retire from this<br />

narrative wilh good incomes.<br />

It was known lhat Ihe Ijdy Capilla. wtrfj.<br />

since Ihe alleged murder of one Bcershcba,<br />

nan shut Herself up like a hcrmil, or a jack-knif- e,<br />

would reenter society, and a great lall<br />

was given to do her honor. The lieauly, rank.<br />

and fashion of Algammon had assembled in Ihe<br />

Guildhall for tlut purpose. While the revelry<br />

was at its fiercest, the dancing at Its loosest,<br />

the rooms at their hottest, and the prespira-lio- n<br />

at spring-tide- , there was a sound of wheels<br />

outside, liegctling an Irulant hush of expecta<br />

tion within. The dancers ceased lo spin, and<br />

all the gentlemen crowded alioul the door.<br />

As Ihe Lady Capilla entered, these instinc-<br />

tively fell into two lines, and she passed<br />

down the space lietwcen, with her little tail<br />

lichind her. As the end of the latter came<br />

Into the room, Ihe wigs of the two gentlemen<br />

nearest the door leaped off to join Ihcii'parcnt<br />

stem. In Iheir haste to recover them the two<br />

gentlemen mt eagerly forward, knocking<br />

their shining pows together with a vehemence<br />

that shattered them like The wigs<br />

of the next pair were similarly effected, ami in<br />

seeking to recover them the fait similarly per-<br />

ished. Then, track I ifat I faih at every<br />

step the lady took their were two heads lhat<br />

beat as one. In three minutes there was but a<br />

single living male in the room. He was an<br />

odd one, who, having a fat man opposite him,<br />

had merely pitched himself headlong into his<br />

stomach, doubling him up like a tcmon- -<br />

squeezer. And taking all the breath out of<br />

the fat man's body, to the great benefit of his<br />

own.<br />

It was merry to see the Lady Capilla'tloating<br />

through the mazy dance that night, with all<br />

those wigs fighting for their old places in her<br />

pigtail. A. G. Ihirtc.<br />

H '(iUUSE.1 '<br />

Colonel Harding was one of the wealthiest<br />

planters on the lississippi river. Although<br />

he had been educated at the North, and was<br />

something of a man of the world, he possessed<br />

to the full all the distinctive characteristics of<br />

the Southern gentleman. He was very fond<br />

of entertaining and his dinners were known<br />

the country round. The basis of much of<br />

Colonel Harding's pomp was his cuisine to<br />

the perfection of which his negro cook, Cesar,<br />

toiled night and day with that unceasing<br />

that the negro only evinces when en-<br />

gaged in the fascinations of the culinary art.<br />

But, alas 1 that I should have to record it<br />

Cesar, like all great men, hid his weakness,<br />

and that weakness was no less than the lazy,<br />

impudent, shiftless, Dinah<br />

One Sunday, just as the dinner was going<br />

upstairs, Dinah sauntered into the kitchen<br />

th a sidling, shuffling gait, and with the<br />

easy confidence of one who knew her rights.<br />

Look hyar, you Dinah," said Cesar,<br />

trembling with the foreboding of ill, "doin<br />

jou come foolin' roun' hyar. I got no time to<br />

bodder wid you. So you jess go long.<br />

" I ain't foolin roun nobody," said Dinah,<br />

sullenly, as, like one of Paul Jones's frigates,<br />

she sidled up to the kitchen table.<br />

rsow on that table, alt succulent in fixings<br />

and gravy, lay a fat roast goose, browned 10 a<br />

turn, and just ready to ascend to the colonel's<br />

table. Iu the twinkling of an eje, and before<br />

Cesar could prevent the mischief, Dinah<br />

whipped off one of the legs and bolted for the<br />

door.<br />

"Hyar t hyar ! nigger ga!, bring back dat<br />

leg," rushing after her with the turnspit in hb<br />

hand. " Bring back dat leg dis minut<br />

But Dinah was now far away dandng In the<br />

twilight, and munching away destructively at<br />

her stolen property. Tocr Coar, in the<br />

meantime, was in despair. He bustled around<br />

ths, kitchen, racking Ms brains for some<br />

remedy to repair the havoc Dinah had made.<br />

Suddenly a thought struck Mm. With the<br />

goose in his hands, he rushed frantically to the<br />

range, boldly threw open the grate door, and<br />

dexterously exposed the despoiled side of the<br />

goose 10 the (lowing coals within. This done,<br />

he caicfully deposited ihe goose, wilh the re-<br />

maining leg upward, on Ihe plate again, and<br />

with trembling heart awaited the issue. The<br />

situation was indeed critical. Soup lud been<br />

served, and fish j they were now ixissing the<br />

roost. It was time for tlut goose to appear.<br />

With the natural instinct of<br />

however, Cesar deferred the awful moment as<br />

long as possible. In fact, he went solar in<br />

his mental processes as to delude himself with<br />

the hope that il might not be necessary to send<br />

up the goose at all. He was rudely awakened<br />

from this dream, however, by Ihe colonel's<br />

body-serva- coming down stairs and crying<br />

out)<br />

"The kunnel wants to know why you dean'<br />

send up dat goose ?<br />

Resistance was useless. Caesar abandoned<br />

himself to hU fate. In contrast to this scene,<br />

all was merriment and laughter above stairs.<br />

The colonel was in high spirits ; be had been<br />

telling one of his favorite anecdotes, and it bad<br />

been unusually well received, awl as the gune<br />

was places! liefore hint hU eye gleamed with<br />

further satisfaction. In nothing did he take<br />

so much pride as his geese.<br />

" what shall I help jou ta ? Will you take a<br />

"Yes, sah,"<br />

" Anil how did you come lo send up a noose<br />

lecture M.mlclUcreiltiyHcv. A.J. Krot,<br />

his subject being, Lying i a I'ine Ait. Mr.<br />

Frtwt took for hi text the proverb, "lluy tlie<br />

truth nl sell It not." He commenced by<br />

that Oixl's ways were wajs ol truth,<br />

that justice ind Judgment are the habitation of<br />

His throne, and as (JI Is absolutely true In<br />

nature, Ills word must be truth. Assuming<br />

that men do not lie for the mere sake of l)ing,<br />

he stated that falsehood, direct and nndindircct,<br />

was becoming alarmingly frequent. Of course<br />

absolute truth cannot always be expected, by<br />

reason of the limited comprehension or Imper<br />

fect knowledge of the subject Involved, but the<br />

law of veracity requires us to make our state-<br />

ments conform tootir conception of the subject,<br />

mi. I to titter what wc believe lo be the truth.<br />

The speaker gasescscial Illustrations of the<br />

possibility ol a mill telling an untruth without<br />

meaning to, or Ids Iiclfig mistaken in his facts,<br />

which he gave out for the truth; yet he ilid not<br />

lie, for the intent was honest, A lie told was<br />

an intention In deceive. lie niatlr the dis<br />

tinction between an untruth and a lie, that the<br />

one was negatively false ami the other iosi<br />

lively and purioscly false. The same rule<br />

practically applies to the difference between a<br />

falsehood and a lie. Deceiving by the tongue<br />

is called a lie, while simulation by looks, acts<br />

and gestures is called liymcrlsy. l'lato held<br />

that it was lawful for statesmen lo lie, and<br />

Cicero and Plutarch held the same view,<br />

which seems to be held by many modern states<br />

men. So vice Is so common as mat ol iving,<br />

and none so universally condemned. The<br />

Devil is called the "I'alhcr of Lies," and he<br />

has many children. Men even swear tiKn the<br />

lliblc, and swear against It. The lecturer<br />

limited at length from the octs and authors on<br />

the subject of Ijlng, to sustain his views, and<br />

then described the various kinds of lying most<br />

in vogue. These were the violation of a<br />

solemn promise which he classified as "prom- -<br />

ssory lying i the violation of confidence<br />

directly or by insinuation; "benevolent lies,"<br />

done by professedly pious people for justifiable<br />

cuds on the ground that live end justifies the<br />

means; "lies of convenience," which more<br />

especially pertain to the social<br />

amenities; "lies of told in one's<br />

for his personal advancement ;<br />

"whitrlieV'whicharc lies in their mildest form,<br />

and are like "milk of the first water;" "mali<br />

cious lies," uttered for the express purpose ol<br />

injuting your neighbor; "wanton lies," told for<br />

the mere sake of Iving, and "practical lies,"<br />

The Glasgow Philosophical Society met<br />

recently, Ir llcnry.Miiitlic.nl piesiding. Sir<br />

William Thomson read a paper on A<br />

Measurement of Klectric Currents and potcn<br />

tials. The subject, he said, was one of great<br />

practical imKiitancc to electricians at the<br />

present day, The measurement of electrical<br />

quantitcs in definite units became a practical<br />

subject in connection with telegraphy, and it<br />

was a reinaikablc and interesting fact, and one<br />

which those engaged in practical electricity<br />

might takesomeplcasurein contemplating, that<br />

thepracticat work had now- reacted on thelalxir<br />

atmies. Whereas before 1865 there had been<br />

scarcely such a thing as definite measurement<br />

of electrical currents and potentials in scientific<br />

laboratories, the growth of telegraphy had<br />

brought out the imperative necessity for a<br />

system of measurements in some definite<br />

units, and the practical applications of etec<br />

tricity hail conic on so very rapidly that<br />

iHpn'iij 'm 'mint<br />

tific measure to give definite and accurate<br />

measurement. lie had liccn greatly impressed<br />

at the Elect lical Exhibition in Vienna with the<br />

want of instruments of measurement, which<br />

could be both definite and approximately<br />

accurate. Before long, however, they would<br />

likely have instruments that would give<br />

the measured results with almost uner-<br />

ring accuracy up to a certain percent'<br />

age. Sir William then cxplaineq at great<br />

length tw 11 instruments of his ow n invention<br />

namely, a graded current meter for measuring<br />

currents of electricity, ami a graded xtcntial<br />

meter for mesuring the intensity of the electro<br />

motive forces. In the case of the latter, he<br />

showed the method of adjusting the instrument<br />

so that its indications should correspond to<br />

round numbers of electro-motiv- force. lie<br />

also illustrated the lecture by exhibiting anil<br />

referring to Simens' and<br />

Simcns Watt meter, the latter being a novel<br />

instrument for measuring work done in gencr<br />

ruing electric currents for example, those<br />

which produce the electric light. Gasjpw<br />

mends of the Hawaiian. The school will leach<br />

L'nglish branches and the principles of music j<br />

and, on Sundays, will devote himself to Suuday<br />

school work with his day pupils.<br />

Mr. Ilagot, agent for McKenny's new I<br />

Directory, has just received some ad-<br />

vance sheets of that work, which is in the<br />

piess. The forms to hand comprise nearly all<br />

the Honolulu and Oahu-Islan- names, and<br />

makes a good showing, especially for our city.<br />

The arrangement and the form as well as the<br />

legible Ivpcs used would all indicate that the<br />

compilers possess a thorough knowledge of the<br />

business. The work will be completed antl<br />

reaily for delivery alxiut the latter part of<br />

iccenlly put it; "I gave llie Portuguese paper<br />

an ad. last week, and Iwfore this week was<br />

"There Is no longer any question as to the<br />

quality of the poi made from this llour nor of<br />

I cnn'l help thinking it wis rather haul lines<br />

on mc lo fall in for such a task after a hard<br />

week's work. You sec I lml load as city-edit-<br />

while the c c, was absent. He'd gone<br />

off to Waiulita with John Spencer nnd Paul<br />

Paly and J. CI. Neumann to look Into the pos-<br />

sibilities nf Wnlahta ns a proselyting ground<br />

for the Uilllnghnii plow, In inquire officially<br />

into the recent irregular conduct of the trade<br />

tvinds, and lo try and placr a few government<br />

bonds at a heavily discoimtcibprcmium. So,<br />

of course, I had lo read all the other reporters'<br />

copy. And all of Ihcm save the gush reporter,<br />

who writes legibly nnd uses good Knglish arc<br />

what mj irreverent friend I tatty Dam, form-<br />

erly swell reporter of the San I'rancisco<br />

Chronicle and now secretary to Clovcrnor<br />

Stonemin, used tocall "holy terrors." None<br />

of them write so the poor printers can renl<br />

them, unless they have been gone "over care-<br />

fully by the city editor j only four of Ihcm<br />

know how to spell wonls of three syllables;<br />

and only two use llawlers I'.nglish. Of course<br />

I was tired out with a hard week's woik nnd<br />

when lint scoundrelly rciorter-of.p.wor- had<br />

the impudence to ask 111c lo let him go. I lost<br />

my icrnper ; and, after I had dismissed him<br />

from the office, I wasat my wit's ends. liul I<br />

remembcted tint the cdi-to- r<br />

had offered to help mc out if I got into a<br />

tight liox, So I went to his den nnd found<br />

him deep in the study of nn Advertiser edi-<br />

torial. Roth eyes were shut, his mouth was<br />

ajar and the throes of thought were indicated<br />

by imrticulatc sounds that resembled a young<br />

bind boy wrestling for the first timc.wilh the<br />

Iroinlxine. I asked him to go in my place<br />

and he said he would. The I.OCAI. Man.<br />

TIIK I'RP.PARATIOV.<br />

And it came to pass that the rabis and the<br />

lady rabis who taught in the school called<br />

Oahu College set their faces towards one great<br />

desire. And they said unto themselves : "Lo<br />

it becomcth well this place that its daughters<br />

of melody lift up their voices to the music of<br />

the harpsichord even to one builded by that<br />

mighty man of noise, Steinway. Tor, behold,<br />

all lesser builders arc known under the name<br />

ofSekkond llcsle. So the rabis considered<br />

well among themselves and the lady rabis and<br />

their friends (who also were for the most part<br />

ladies) lifted up their voices and spread the<br />

warning abroad that their should be given a<br />

feast of the sort called by the gentiles "a<br />

garden party " at the house of the husbandman<br />

whose surname is Dillingham, on the Sabbath<br />

day of the week now past, called by the gen-<br />

tiles Saturday. And a great multitude of<br />

ladies lifted up their voices and exceeding<br />

great was the sound thereof. So that it pene-<br />

trated to the innermost recesses of the shops of<br />

the money changers and the inns of the pub-lica-<br />

and the chambers of the scribes. And<br />

the ladies who, in the olden time were called<br />

women did bid lo the feast many who gave<br />

fair promises ; and high were the hopes uf the<br />

ladies )e.i, they were very high.<br />

THE STORV.<br />

Last SaturJny morning I returned from a<br />

lying trip to Maui, and the first man I met on<br />

the wharf was the editor.<br />

Alter the usual greeting, the usual common<br />

places, and the usual "news," he said lie<br />

would be very much obliged if I'd take a con<br />

tract oil his hands. He told me what the con-<br />

tract was and I jumped at the chance. I didn't<br />

go out to the grounds until 3 p. m. At that<br />

hour the green lawn was dotted with visitors;<br />

in gatb, from the tiny dresse of infancy to the<br />

ample folds of inatronhooj in ace from G;u,ir<br />

days to eighty years. Certainly Honolulu lias<br />

no finer law n than Woodlaw n. Surely that lawn<br />

nevtr was more charmingly congregated. The<br />

arrangements for entertainment were, generally<br />

speaking, good, A severe looking yet kindly<br />

cycii guarded the outer gate and<br />

adult visitors paid a shilling, two bits, twenty- -<br />

live cents, or a quarter according to age and<br />

rank. They paid rather more to net out.<br />

Ccubrus tried to refuse to take pay from me.<br />

lie said he Itadotderslo "pass the press man."<br />

Hut as some one else had already paid for me,<br />

I was obliged to put tint largess down lo loss.<br />

You sec they thought I was llie gush reporter.<br />

I wish I were. I lie mikal lawn was devoted<br />

lo the athletic Siorts cjiicfiy , at llie northwest<br />

coiner of il being 11 ".sylvan liowcr" I<br />

that is the exact languige n which<br />

a mighty p;etty Ueliekah sold very<br />

good lemonade at a dime the glasi. Across<br />

(he driveway, other ladirs sold ice cream In<br />

and from an open booth. Mauka the ice<br />

cream luxilh, the band was playing, visilots<br />

came and went, the games proceeded, the<br />

merriment waxed and waned and waxed and<br />

waned ngiini and presently 'twas five<br />

o'clock. And then my medical friend and I<br />

went Into a Iwolh still further mauka<br />

and had dinner. And such a vlinnerl<br />

Tluy called it a New Kngland dinner ;<br />

il was good tnough to be Cabfurntan 1<br />

it was almost good enough lobe Hawaiim.<br />

A nici little gill served 1110 wild beans and<br />

blown bread and pumpkin pie and coffee. 1<br />

aske. ner r.ovv much it cost, and she said,<br />

Nothing for you, Sir." A second lime 1 hail<br />

shotlly iheieaftcr the stars came out by two<br />

and lours and eights and thirty-two- s and Imn<br />

died and thousands and tens of thousands.<br />

And from building, ami trees and the tall ll.ig<br />

siau gamiy lines ol paper lanleins hung, that<br />

shone with dim, harmonious brilliance In the<br />

tranquil air. And umn the makai playground<br />

the nimbi football sped on its discouraging<br />

pathway, and might have continued an hour<br />

longer but for an unfortunate combination of<br />

stumble nnd tumble, which resulted in the<br />

breaking of a football playn's leg. If nature<br />

had planned the night for the gentle ("eguilc-men- t<br />

of all who. cared to buv t.leasure uiih<br />

silver or gold for the benefit of Oal.u College,<br />

it might not have been made more perfect.<br />

So calm, w full of balm, so fit for I he Innocent<br />

u'lisuousness of divide reu-liy- . In the neutral<br />

nn'd King, hid a smill outside bone broken<br />

near his left ankle. Doctor X. II. Kmcrson,<br />

who was nn the grounds, Icmtiorarily set lite<br />

bioken Ixinc, and the sufferer was taken to Ihc<br />

Queen's Hospital, where he Is now rapidly re-<br />

covering. The other " unfortunating " was a<br />

misunderstanding by which the Ixivs nf the<br />

Hawaiian bind lost their suppei. They had<br />

given their services gratuitously, and (heir<br />

playing had been fully appreciated by many<br />

hearers of their usual Satunl.iy nfternoon con-<br />

certs, and by mmy who are seldom able lo at-<br />

tend those concerts. Mr. V. It. Castle had<br />

the r entertainment in charge nnd planned to<br />

give them the most royal spread nt Ihc com-<br />

mand of the refreshment committee, Hut Mr.<br />

Cnstle was, unaioidably, called away; and his<br />

pitting injunctions to "sec that the boys had<br />

Ihe best supper to be had on Ihc grounds"<br />

were not carried out. Mr. llcrger failed to<br />

make it understood that (he band was obliged<br />

lo lease at 7 p.m., and continued playing until<br />

within a few minutes of the starling<br />

hour. The tables In the tents were then<br />

occupied by others and il would<br />

have been impossible lo serve Ihc<br />

musicians promptly there. When Mr.<br />

lltrger did pliy the last piece nnd bring his<br />

1k))s forward, Ihe offer was made to serve them<br />

on the grounds. This offei was misinterpret-<br />

ed and the offer declined upon the plea of the<br />

lateness of Ihc hour. Mr. llcrger has since<br />

been made to understand cxacll) how the af-<br />

fair came alxiut, and no hard feeling now ex-<br />

ists. Tor the nonce, however, the happening<br />

threw a damper upon the merriment, that<br />

only the infectious jovousness of the delightful<br />

evening atmosphere was nble to dispel. The<br />

sum netted for Ihe benefit of Ihc piano was<br />

$375- - Some pleasant folks would have been<br />

present who remained away because ol the<br />

Many business men were prevented from at-<br />

died at Wailukit on the 3rd inslanl Wilh<br />

the exception of Judge Austin ha was ihe old-<br />

est member of Ihc Hawaiian bar, nnd, in some<br />

respects, one of Ihc most talented. He was<br />

born in 1S5G at Mobile, Alabama. He served<br />

as a second lieutenant (under (cn. Harney, it<br />

Is said) through Ihe Seminole War in Florida;<br />

and was a colonel during the Mexican War.<br />

lie was afterwards deputy United States mar-<br />

shal for Northern Texas; via attorney-gener-<br />

oi Missouri, nnd practiced law on circuits<br />

where he met both Lincoln and ISonton.<br />

s<br />

in Kansas when the civil war broke out,<br />

but took no part. As a writer in Ihc Advertiser<br />

says he was "often heard to say tint however<br />

strongfy he felt alxiut Ihe cause of the South,<br />

he amid not nnke up his mind to take up<br />

arms agiinst Ihc llag under which he had<br />

fought and shed his blood in lvo wars and in a<br />

hundred fights ngiinsl ihe Indians." At the<br />

beginning of the war he moved to New Mexi-<br />

co, Ihcncc lo Arizona, compiling for Ihe latler<br />

territory its first civil ami criminal axle. He<br />

came to these islands in 1S56. Ten years<br />

later he represented North Kont in the legis-<br />

lature. He was at otic lime police justice of<br />

this city, and give up its pay of $3,000 a<br />

year to go into the cabinet as<br />

attorney-genera- When Colonel Jones arriv-<br />

ed he was very clnqucnl, and his eloquence,<br />

coupled wilh his commanding nose, (lashing<br />

eyes and marked gestures won him among Ihe<br />

natives Ihc nickmnie of "the eagle." Drink,<br />

however, got the better of him. He wrote<br />

good ptosc and fair verse, and a great ileal of<br />

lxjth. His last effort, a criticism upon the ac-<br />

cepted afterglow theory, anil signed "Viatoi,"<br />

was published two weeks ago in ihis piper.<br />

It is seldom that a show visits these islands,<br />

but when a good one like Sherman's does<br />

come, Ihc public appreciate il, as was shown<br />

lasl Thursday night. The tent was filled, and<br />

large numbers were sent away unable lo gain<br />

admission. This show is well nnd favorably<br />

known throughout the Golden Slate. Hut<br />

Ibis is its first visit here. It hid its origin<br />

with Mr. John Sherman, the senior partner.<br />

He first found that the trick horses, Harney<br />

and Tomniie, which, by the way, were then<br />

work horses on his farm in Ciliforriia-hi- d<br />

great cleverness; and hcconcluded to train (hem<br />

a little. This training proved so successful that<br />

he went still further nnd took Ihcm traveling,<br />

and added from lime to time enough talent to<br />

make a circus.<br />

At S o'clock llie Uoyal Hawaiian Hand<br />

struck up a tune and Mr. John Sherman, with<br />

his horses Harney and Tomniie were intro-<br />

duced to the waiting spectators. Ho'.h horses<br />

arc finely built and bowed, walked, stopx;d,<br />

started nnd lay down at conmnnd. Next on<br />

the programme came the world renowned slick<br />

rope dancer, Mr. Charles Crossmtn. The<br />

Morrosco brothers who followtd were excellent.<br />

Then came Mr. Sherman and the Irick and<br />

clown horse Jack, accompanied by the clown<br />

Thompson. He attempted lo go to see a<br />

friend, but "came to a fork in the rntd; the<br />

horse went one fork and he went the other."<br />

Mr. Sherman then introduced Miss Mabel St<br />

Clair, who, first making the horse lie down to<br />

mount, then rode him several limes around the<br />

ring wilh great etse. The exercises on the<br />

double horizontal bir were well ixitformcd,<br />

nnd Thompson deserves great credit for Ihe<br />

success he nl last had, after many sorry at<br />

tempts. Next came n grand free fight the<br />

principal actor being Hilly O Hell.<br />

Then followed ihc best pail of the circus<br />

Mr. John Sherman with his trick horses Harney<br />

and Tomniie. Udrney is his f ivorite, and he<br />

very cleverly untied strings from Tommic's<br />

feet, walked over him and Mr. .Sherman, and<br />

also lay down beside thcni. Harney alio sits<br />

down, first lieing in a standing and<br />

waltzes like a German. The trapeze perform<br />

ance was good, very good. After that Tom- -<br />

line and Jack took a "leelcr" together. The<br />

performance concluded with Mr. Sherman<br />

and his horses; Harney, Tomniie, and Jack".<br />

Tomniie drove Hirncy and Jack around ihe<br />

ring several times. The company showed last<br />

night with as good success as before, nnd give<br />

a children's matinee al 2 o'clock this afternoon.<br />

A moonlight visit (adapleil from the Daily<br />

heard. " We " seriously thought of sampling<br />

some of the fine young horses, which were an<br />

loutid Ihc barracks, apd failing lo rouse any<br />

a man, Uiogcnesdike, came out of one of the<br />

to get awake, "we" asked for Ihe officer In<br />

Ihe slsteen recruits? They vveic all (with ihe<br />

exception of ihoso already mentioned and two<br />

others who were still asleep) in town, (prob-<br />

ably looking for carbines). The (ihree) men<br />

were young, and (rather) and in their<br />

looked far more untrained and useless, tlun<br />

On Tliursday evening last a large company<br />

gillicrctl at the V. M. C. A. hall lo tlo honor<br />

to whom honor was due, ami listened to an<br />

excellent address. The president, Judge Judd,<br />

in inlrcxlticinr' llie speaker, said he hid ureal<br />

chiins on us as representing the great family<br />

of Smiths even to Athtn Smith and Adam<br />

vv as about as far back as a man caretl to go.<br />

Hut he had a spechl chim on the friends and<br />

members of llie association in having done so<br />

much toward the establishment of this build-<br />

ing.<br />

Mr. Smith said he represented a constitu<br />

ency of four thousand San Franciscan Smiths.<br />

lie congratulated the members of the associa<br />

tion on their fine building and their opportu-<br />

nity for good work, encouraged the incmbeas<br />

to activity in the front rank ns with<br />

the churches, and advised them to take a Ixjld<br />

and decided stand on all questions affecting<br />

the public welfare, as in the cause of temper<br />

ance. We had good laws here<br />

but Ihc wise provisions therein were<br />

allowed lo remain as dead letters<br />

on Ihe statute books. They need to be en-<br />

forced as has been done elsewhere to drive the<br />

accursed traffic out of these beautiful islands<br />

and mike tins a free htul. The speaker in-<br />

terspersed his long and interesting address<br />

with n number of anecdotes lint kept his<br />

audience in thorough good humor, At the<br />

close, the president remarked that a committee<br />

ofladies had provided ice cream and refresh,<br />

nients for which the entertainment would<br />

stand adjourned, but lhat upon the statement<br />

made by Ucv. Mr. Critian last Sunday evening<br />

relative o aid tovvatsl Mr. Smith's new Tabci.<br />

naclu Church, now in course of erection in<br />

nnvthing towards it, as a return for the favor<br />

Mr. Smith bail done this Association, might<br />

A I'cnsjlvania paper has printed the result<br />

of a careful canvass by means of corrcsixin-tlcnt- s<br />

of the 400 counties of the States of New<br />

Vork, Pennsylvania, Ohio, Indiana, and<br />

Illinois, in regard to the first nnd second<br />

choice of the Republicans for prcsidenthl<br />

candidates, and the first choice of each for<br />

the feeling toward President<br />

Arthur as a candidate, and Ihc prospects of<br />

Ihc party in the several states. These stales<br />

were chosen because they contained, according<br />

to Ihe flatfield vote in 1SS0, Republican votes<br />

to the number of 1,925,497, Hancock voles<br />

numbering 1,785,603, and a population in<br />

iSSoof 17,619,996, or over one-thir- d of the<br />

total population of the Union. The total<br />

result is that Maine is the first choice for<br />

presidential candidate in 151 counties, Logan<br />

in sixty-si- Edmund in thirty-thre- General<br />

Sherman in thirty-tw- President Arlhur in<br />

facts. Maine has a strong lead in New Vork,<br />

SATURDAY. ..MARCH ,.i4<br />

(co.M-i.t'fip.- rutin mrr taoe.)'<br />

"Two attractive ladies cntne tb<br />

Honolulu some,' montlis since com-<br />

mended to-- -' consigned to,' one might<br />

say - a gentleman whose position in<br />

Honoltilan sorfcty is crnphasired by<br />

his hostility loathe government as an<br />

entirety, ,<br />

" These ladles were received every-wher- e<br />

with courtesy, cxrcpl at the<br />

p.ilacc. There they were not tetcived<br />

at all, for the very simple reason that<br />

the gentleman under whose charge<br />

they were was not on terms to ask to<br />

have them received, and no one else<br />

thought proper to interfere.<br />

" 1 'resent I) arrived other ladies,<br />

'consigned' to other society people<br />

who wtrt on terms at the palace. The<br />

second arrival were llrcs-entc- and, in<br />

due course, wcreinvitcd to breakfast at<br />

the palace. Hut the elder of ladies<br />

number one was not only a Christian<br />

matron but was also so good a Repub-<br />

lican that she could not bear to have<br />

the ladies number two accept anything<br />

so compromising as a breakfast with<br />

royalty, So she went to the leader of<br />

patty number two and begged her not<br />

to go to the breakfast, supplementing<br />

her entreaty with some rash and not<br />

very lady-lik- e abuse of the Hawaiian<br />

court, But the leader of party number<br />

two had already accepted the invitation<br />

had been arranged by friends<br />

and declined to be persuaded. On<br />

the following day, mutual friends<br />

arranged n call at the residence of one<br />

of the king's sisters The king was<br />

present and ladies number one were<br />

presented. The king, knowing nothing<br />

about the feeling against his little<br />

breakfast on the part of matron number<br />

one, and finding out that she was an<br />

intimate of matron number two,<br />

thought it would be a good scheme to<br />

have ladies number one present also.<br />

Did matron number one draw herself<br />

to her fullest height and indignantly<br />

refuse to submit her Democratic diges-<br />

tion to the blnndishmcnt of the royal<br />

breakfast? Did she, sweet innocents?<br />

She did not I She merely smiled be-<br />

hind her fan and said she would be<br />

highly honored."<br />

A true story that and it points its<br />

own moral.<br />

And now that this long moral preach-<br />

ment and this curt consideration of<br />

recent critics draws to a close, docs not<br />

the meaning of it all demand more<br />

thoughtful consideration than it has<br />

ever had ? There is one big fact which<br />

all of us ought to be able to grasp.<br />

Hawaii nci ought to be at peace within<br />

itself, its jangling discords stilled, its<br />

teapot tempests hushed. Must these<br />

isles of peace go on forever at swords-lraw-<br />

with their highest good? Is it<br />

necessary that the same old contentions<br />

in other masques, mayhap that<br />

have set the work-a-da- y outside world,<br />

by the ears through only a little less<br />

than a score of centuries, must come to<br />

vex us in these isles of blessedness?<br />

"A)e," you answer, "while wrong yet<br />

rules, while waiting justice sleeps."<br />

Ah but how usurp, and how awaken?<br />

Hy two wrongs, gentlemen ? By hate<br />

and envy Mid all uncharitablcness ; or<br />

by loe and toleration and all good<br />

works ?<br />

Stintr r'orelytt Mttiitlillra<br />

The Sugar Cane for February is at<br />

hand. Us monthly list of patents is an<br />

interesting feature of this publication.<br />

Some tables valuable to the trade statis-<br />

tician accompany the number under<br />

consideration.<br />

Harper's for March is a good number.<br />

It would be noteworthy, if for no other<br />

reason, because of the beginning of a<br />

new story by Charles Rcade evidently<br />

to run only a few numbers. That last<br />

but one of the "Old Guard" of novel-<br />

ists George Hliot, Thackcry, Dickens,<br />

Bulwer, Kingsley, Trollope, Collins,<br />

Rcade--i- s also to have a long serial in<br />

Harper's Bazar, already, or soon to be,<br />

begun. The illustrations of the March<br />

number are not so noticeable as those<br />

of the numbers for January and Febru-<br />

ary ; but Mr. V.. I Roe's odd composi-<br />

tion, Nature's Serial Story, has some<br />

exquisite examples of wood engraving,<br />

and there are fine cuts of John and<br />

Abagail Adams and of Thomas J effcrson,<br />

accompanying a paper on The Karljj<br />

American Presidents ; anil the oilier<br />

illustrated articles, notably The York-<br />

shire Coast, arc, as usual, excellently<br />

done, in both letter, press and illustra-<br />

tion. William M. Baker has written a<br />

short story under the title Love is Not<br />

Enough in manifest contradiction of<br />

the dictum laid down in William<br />

Moriis' famous poem. In the Editor's<br />

Easy Chair, George William Curtis says<br />

a good word for Alfred Tennyson,<br />

ancnt the latter's recent elevation to<br />

the rank of baron.<br />

Of St. Nicholas and Wide Awake the<br />

trouble is always to know where to be-<br />

gin to say nice things. The publishers<br />

of these generous rivals for the monthly<br />

favor of at least a million juvenile<br />

readers must spend " a mint " of money<br />

in their congenial labor. But it is<br />

money well spent. No child continu-<br />

ously may read either of those admira-<br />

ble monthly visitors, for a year, without<br />

being distinctly a gainer. Which is the<br />

better? Each "You pays your money,"<br />

etc.<br />

Uppincott's Maganne for March suf-<br />

fers by comparison with Harper's and<br />

the Ccntuiy as it always does, except<br />

when some special article makes the<br />

Philadelphia magazine especially sea-<br />

sonable to some community as was<br />

the number for last January, which con-<br />

tained Mrs. Strong's piquant retelling<br />

of the coronation storyctte.<br />

The Atlantic has sixteen articles.<br />

Among them is a satirical story of En-<br />

glish "high life" by Richard Grant<br />

While, a poem by OHer Wendell<br />

Holmes, a timely paper on the great<br />

English actor, Henry Ining, an article<br />

on English Folk-Lor- e and London<br />

Humors, and a biographical sketch ot<br />

Don John of Austria the brilliant<br />

Spanish gou-rno- r of the Netherlands<br />

during the gloomy period following the<br />

jucificatiou of Ghent, and which cul-<br />

minated in a united Holland and the<br />

final overthrow of Spanish iiowcr in<br />

Western Europe. The article in the<br />

Atlantic is in roiew- - of the biography<br />

by the late Sir William Stirling-Ma- v<br />

well, whose judgment of Don John's<br />

character is my different from that of<br />

Motley. s<br />

The Oseiland'MoiUlily is a iKUiodi<br />

i.l that one naturally classes with the<br />

Atlantic. Neither has better reading<br />

that Harper's or the Cento ry, and' each<br />

lacks the illustrations of those wondcY-fu- l<br />

repositories of popular cultivation,<br />

llut of course, the Atlantic has its New-Englan- d<br />

follow ini? while thctitalifornian<br />

publication has a coinparathely small<br />

constituency of readers, llut the March<br />

number has one name on its title page<br />

who is always sure of his readers. And<br />

Honolulu must take off, its hat when<br />

the literary world applauds, for that<br />

name is Charles Warren Stoddard.<br />

The second instalment of vy Letters<br />

from Low latitudes consists 6f six en-<br />

titled Afloat1--Ashore- --A Sabbatical<br />

Matinee A I'oi-Fce- Kapcna The<br />

Colonial Transit A Day of Rest. Not<br />

every Honoltilan reader will like those<br />

l.vy letters. Not one reader in a thou-<br />

sand- the world over-- -- is toct enough<br />

to appreciate - to understand the<br />

dainty pcrfcctncss of Stoddard's prose.<br />

Many an one will read these lazy letters<br />

to quarrel with them. But surely not<br />

Music-Docto- r Bcrgcr, of whom the<br />

The author of "The Bread-Winners- "<br />

has writcn to the March Century, re-<br />

plying to the charges of his critics, that:<br />

(1) "The Bread-Winner- is conceived<br />

from an aristocratic point ol view. (2)<br />

It is not well written. The incidents<br />

are extravagant and untrue to naUirc ;<br />

and (3) It is a base and craven thing<br />

to publish a book anonymously. On<br />

the last point he says : " My motive in<br />

withholding my name is simple enough.<br />

I am engaged in business in which my<br />

standing would be seriously comprom-<br />

ised if it were known that I had written<br />

a novel. I am sure that my practical<br />

efficiency is not lessened by this act ;<br />

but 1 am equally sure that I could<br />

never recover from the injury it would<br />

occasion me if known among my own<br />

colleagues, l'or that positive reason,<br />

and for the negative one that I do not<br />

care for publicity, I resolved to keep<br />

the knowledge of my little venture in<br />

authorship restricted to as small a circle<br />

as possible. Only two persons beside<br />

myself know who wrote "The Bread-<br />

winners." A fine portrait of Von<br />

Moltkc is one of many good illustra-<br />

tions in the number. A lady, Helen<br />

Zimmcrn, is the writer of the accom-<br />

panying article. The whole number is<br />

a fine one.<br />

The Popular Science Monthly for<br />

March contains an article on green<br />

suns and red sunsets which ought to<br />

interest. Mr. Sereno Bishop, Mr. C.<br />

J. Lyons, Mr. V. L. Green and other<br />

local scientists. Mr. W. 1 1. I.arrabce<br />

is the writer. He recounts the fact<br />

that while the appearance of the sun is<br />

greenish-yello- in most places at Trini-<br />

dad, on the and of September last, the<br />

appearance of the setting sun was blue.<br />

The same aopearancc was noted at<br />

Ceylon, while at Madras, India, the<br />

sun on the oth of September the sun<br />

was " perfectly rayless," though on the<br />

13th it was a bright pea-grte- The<br />

hypotheses of terrestrial dust on one<br />

side and of cosmic dust on the other<br />

arc stated at some length. It is a long<br />

jump from the scientific consideration<br />

of the recent phenomenal after glows to<br />

an anatomical study of the human<br />

foot. Fashion and deformity in the<br />

feet is an illustrated article by Miss<br />

Ada II. Keplcy. It begins with the<br />

following startling announccmei.t : "A<br />

foot," says Chapman, in<br />

the American drawing book "is rarely<br />

to be met with in our day, from the<br />

lamentable distortion it is doomed to<br />

endure by the fashion of our shoes and<br />

boots." The article quotes Lord l'alm-ersto- u<br />

that : " Shoemakers should all<br />

be treated like pirates, put to death<br />

without trial or mercy, as they hae in-<br />

flicted more .suffering on mankind than<br />

any class I know," Every woman who<br />

has ever worn a tight shoe and every<br />

girl who is ambitious to wear particu-<br />

larly small ones ought to read this arti-<br />

cle attentively. The masculine tight-bo- ot<br />

brigade is not worth saving. Air,<br />
