ej'ite of iti name it id only a bee To teak and onions.

A Kiowa Indian recently created a sensation inClay county, Tex., by offering to trade even witha Mr. Stratton bis old pony for the farmer'syoung daughter.

Concerning the engagement of a pastor by achurch in Kentucky, a member writes: Wehave secured his services for the ensuing year atthe salary of $100, and are looking forward forgreat blessings!"

Inebriated gentleman who has fallen down a.light of btairs in a Sacramento street lodgingh iuue to another who offers to help him up :

YYbarzcuse elobbcrin' 'round a fella'? I aliuscome down stairs that way !"

They tell of a Kentucky schoolmaster who hadLis wife for a pupil, and found it necessary tochastise her one day. Next day a notice appearedon the door, saying : "School closed for one week

schoolmaster is ill."'Tia aweet to ait at eventideHome willin female form beside,And, love-lik- e purr and snicker ;To feel, whatever devilish artsAre auud'ring other kindred hearts,You two are growing thicker.

A Detroitcr who didn't exactly know how toget a letter registered, Bent some money away theother day, and he wrote on thecnveloe: "Regis-tered with a two-doll- ar bill inside." Fearingthat this might not be strong enough, one of hisfriends wrote: ''I'll swear that 1 saw Jim puttwo dollars in this." The man who fools withthat letter will get into trouble.

There is one thing American which 'ltrnysonmuch affeeta and that is the fragrant weed. Z'He

poet id described by a recent interviewer asiron-gra- y us to his hair, ancient

as to his clothes, ani much devoted to a short,black pipe filled with Virginia tobacco. Thinkof such a man writing to Maud or any other girlto come into tho garden." lie's outlived suchfoolishness.

When it was not as popular as now to havecolored people in the Boston churches, a coloredwoman presented herself for admission to Dr.Baldwin's church, in that city. An influentialmember was greatly opposed to admitting her, andintimated that he did not know as he wouldcure to go to heaven if it was full of negroes.Up to this time the candidate had not spoken.She modestly said : Well, brudder, you go tohell you find dem dar, too."

An old lady in Ohio lost the companion withwhom sho had jogged for many years. She neg-lected to mark the spot of his burial by even astone. Not long after coming into possession ofa small legacy, a sister cf the deceased said to her :

I suppose you will now put up 6 tones forDaniel?" Her answer was a settler. "If theLord wants anything of Daniel at the roserrection.1 guess he can find him without a guide-board-."

A Massachusetts girl left her band-bo- x at adepot in Nashua, N. II., to be forwarded to her.When she was miles away, the baggage-ma- n

looked at the direction. It was occult. It wasto be sent, this band-bo- x, to " Kria (lun. Mass."Baggage-ma- n couldn't make it out. He calledin several Massachusetts men, but they couldn'thelp him. Then in despair, he applied to an oldpot; (office clerk, who read it in a minute : " AycrJunction, Mass." It was like a conundrum, easyenough if you only knew.

May it please your honor, this is a stupen-dous question. Its decision by you, this day,will live in judicial history long alter you and Ishall have passed from this scene of earthly gloryand sublunary vanity; when the tower of Pisashall be forgotten; when Waterloo and Borodinoshall grow dim in the distant cycles of recedingcenturies; when the names of Eugene, Marl-borough and Napoleon are no longer remembered;when the pyramids of the Pharaohs shall havecrumbled into dust; when the hippopotamusshall cease to inhabit its native Nile; when ourown rock-ribbe- d territory shall no more growthree-hundre- d pound squashes; even then yourruling upon this demurrer will still survive inthe antique volumes of legal lore as fresh, greenand imperishable as a Big Thompson grass-hopp- er

or a Colorado potato-bug.- "

Talk about women having no voice in politics!There was " Fanny Lear," alias " the Phoenix,"alias Miss Blackford, the beautiful but baddaughter of the American clergyman, who wentto Russia, turned tho head of the iio-bilit- andbecame the mistress of the nephew of the Czar.Having bad a quarrel with her imperial lovershe comes to Paris and publishes his love lettersto her, in ono of which he speaks of the SuezCanal, the road which our soldiers will somedav follow to take India from the English." AllEuthe rest, Mr. Disraeli, the Premier of GreatBritain. He reads the nbove sentence of the Bus- -

eian Prince, works one eye, says "aha!" andstraightway sends a man down to buy Egypt'scanal shares from tho Khedive. Russia is fore-

stalled, France furious, England jubilant, all onaccount of the bautiful American and her book.The Cleveland Leader inquires: Is there a moralin all this, or not?

IIetekoi-ulmv- . Ilcterophemy is the new pseu-donym of old Aphasia. People afflicted withthis Greek tangle-tongu- e are apt to forget whatthey wish to say, and say something else. Aaoupe in a threatre whose sole duty it was to say" Stand aside and let the coffin pass !" exclaimedin his embarrassment, " Stand aside and let thoparson cough !" A more extreme case if not aloonier one. is that of the excited messenger whorashed into the State House when the steamboatOliver Ellsworth exploded with fatal results, andyelled to the astonished presiding officer: "SisterMeeker and lembers of the megismature ! TheElicer Ollsicorth has biled her buster." HenryClay also once participated in a funny scene ofthe kind of aphasia which is caused by diffidence.

Passing through Rochester when politics ran highbe waTsarrouded by a committee from the ruraldistricts wishing 10 tender their allegiance andhomage. "Mr. Clay, sir!" said the red-haire- d,

raw-bon- ed spokesman. "We honor you as theman who had rather be President than to be right! '

lay smiled, the bystanders giggled, and the ora-

tor saw he had made a mistake. " Mr. Clay !"ha began again, "Sir, we honor you as tho manwho had rather be be President than to beright." "Yes, yes, yes!" shouted Clay gayly,

"1 know what you mean. Glad to see you!"and be waa introduced and "shook" all round.

It waj hoped that when aa addition was made to. the editorial corps of the Gazelle, there would be

more accuracy in oar coart reports and at least some

, judgment exhibited in regard to the publication of, opinions upon legal matters pending in oar courts

before they were finally decided. In this we havebeen disappointed, and the same reckless disregardof accuracy and the same want of judgment stillexist,

may be " founded in justice, ' bat if so, it is on the

principle cf no justice to the foreigner, and of that1 peculiar character not recognized by moralists or

jurists.If, when a foreign resident pays money for land,

receives a deed for the same, places Lis servant incharge of the land, and that servant pays rent andattorns to him for twenty years, and is finally law-fol- ly

dispossessed for the nonpayment of rent, andthen the heirs of such servant are permitted to come

in and claim the land as their own and eject theheirs of the rightful owner, is there justice done in

the case to the heirs of the foreigner? It may be

native justice, bat not foreign; and it is hardly jus-

OUR LAND POLICY IMMIGRATION.Within tlic limits of a newpr-upe- article it

woul-- be imf-iM- e to go into anj detailed state-men- t3

rogaHing tiic benefits to be dorivci fromnn alteration in the existing land policy of tbegovernment ; but as it requires no verj cloee ob-

servation to mark the narrowness of thia policy,it also requires but little intelligence to bee thata change to one of more liberality would befraught with incalculable advantage to the coun-try. Heretofore the policy ha9 been only to leasethe Iandd belonging to government, and that forshort periods, five years being the usual limit.uccaetonally however, leases have been made forfifteen years, and sales have been made but thepolicy is altogether in favor of short leases only.Slt is scarcely necessary to remark, that landleaded for so short a period as five years will notbe improved by the lessee.? His object will ratherbe to denude it of everything of value during thecontinuance of Lis term ; and this procesa being i

repeated from time to time as the land may berelet, it must forever remain in its unimprovedstate, its fertility decreasing in proportion as itis used for agriculture, and its water-suppl- y fall-ing proportionally shorter as the forests arestripped from it, until finally it is reduced fromits primitive condition of fertility to a mere bar-ren, lit only for the scanty subsistence of browsinganimals. Contrast with this deterioration ofvalue the benefit to the treasury of the moneywhich might be obtained from its sale; the neces-Bir- y

increase of its value by the improving pur-chaser ; the annual contribution to the exchequerin the shape of taxes ; the increased product ofthe soil, to swell the nggregate of nationalwealth ; the encouragement to industrious settlersthat would thus be afforded ; and is there not asufficiency of reasons why we should adopt thepolicy of selling instead of leasing the governmentlands? The country is in need of both popula-tion and capital ; but with Euch a shortsightedland policy as ours we have no encouragement toexpect a commensurate supply of cither.

The following extract from a letter from Maka-wa- o,

(Maui) written by one who has farmed inthe Western States of America, we think worthyof publication in this connection, as showing thegeneral impression of the short-sightedne- ss ofgovernment which strangers must receive whenhere seeking for opportunities to settle :

u This, the kula iart of Makawao, is the best land 1 haveseen in this country on which to raise a winter crop. It isfine, light, warm soil. Corn and potatoes will be ready to usein three months from planting. The land belongs to govern-ment, and I am tokl that it will not be sold at any price, andonly rented for a term of not more than five years, at $1 peracre per annum. If government would have it surveyed andsell or give away each alternate lot, as they do in the UnitedStates, it would soon be a source of profit in the way of taxes,anj enhance the value ot what is left tenfold. Castor oil. cof- -

A-- and ramie will grow there, and many other things thatooght soon to be a source of revenue to the country."

Only a small portion of the lands owned by thegovernment and the crown is at present underlease, and, thia mostly to graziers and sugarplanters Many of the lands are leased solely forthe forests they possess, and are denuded in themost relentless manner during the term of thelease of all the value they contain, and often re-

vert back to government in a state of desolationand barrenness.

The policy of holding on to lands originated inthe early days of the government, and waa adopt-ed in concession to the feeling of the chiefs, whichwaa strongly averse to anything which seemed tothem to savor of foreign encroachment. Thisimagined foothold of the foreigner was regardedby them with a jealous eye, for they felt in theirignorance that to sell the soil was to part withthe national independence. Under the circum-stances, thia was perhaps a natural conclusion ;

but time and increased intelligence should havelong since banished such sentiments as groundless, and moreover as detrimental to that very independence which the natives were and are soanxious " to maintain. And now tho questioncomes, are we to continue to be bound down bythia narrow and detrimental policy, this relic ofsemi-barbaro- us diplomacy, or is a more liberalspirit hereafter to direct the political economy ofHawaii nei ?

In the first place, an increase of population isnecessary to an increase of the national prosper-

ity ; but the quality and manner of introducingpopulation may very materially affect for betteror worse our condition. The kind of populationintroduced aa mere laborers on our plantations,being placed in circumstances rather adverse tonature in regard to marital relations and theother tica of family, beyond the actual moneyvalue of their services are rather a barrier thanotherwise to the ecneral welfare. Families ofecttlcra are wanted, rather than the lone cooliea

who only tend to augment the already existingdisparity between the sexes in our population ,

and who, with a natural tendency to traffic andbarter are agriculturists only so long aa their firstcontracts to labor compel them to be so. At theend of these they become peddlers, arti3ana andshop-keeper-s, pursuits which are already over-

crowded. But still, without more inducementsthan are now offered, it ia useless to entertainhopes that a better clasa of population will evermigrate to our islands. When we consider thatthere is land sufficient to maintain more than halfa million of people, where a population of 6carcc

fifty thousand exists, there ia ample evidence ofthe waste of our policy.

The large tracts of crown lands are subject tostill greater restraints, for the policy in regard tothem is a fixture by law, they cannot be 6old

except by an Act of the Legislature. Vastly better would it be if these landa, a great part ofwhich are literally wasted as far aa value ia con-

cerned, could be surveyed, plotted out into lotaand sold to actual settlers, the government agree-

ing in the meantime to assume the annual pay-

ment to the crown of a sum equal in amount tothat at present raised from their rental. A poli-

cy of thia sort, while it would subtract nothing"that rightfully belongs io tho royal purse, would

be putting into the best of circulation the valuethese landa represent.

The natioual prosperity has for some time beenalmost wholly supported by the production ofsugar; but as this interest is in danger of being

seriously straitened by the growing dearth of

labor, and the difficulty of replenishment from

former sources of supply, it would behoove thegovernment at this particular juncture to enterwith a will on the task of devising some planwhereby the emergency may be met. Varioussuggestions have been made as to the best source

from whence to draw our needed supply of popu-

lation. India, Europe and Polynesia have inturn been mentioned ; but the mere supply ofpresent pressing needs for labor has been theprincipal object of all these schemes. There hasbeen no inducement offered or planned for theimmigration of families. A provision for fami-lies, or at lca6t for a large if not an equal propor-tion of females, would be an inducement to themale laborer and agriculturist to come hither ;

and families and females are certainly what a na-tion needs where the preponderance of males isso large as ia shown by our last census.

ons of witncf.sc?, there i not much rran to hopethat it will Iktcgbcc lees a the intereeta of suchpeople increase. Attempts have been made tointroduce modifications of the law which prohi-

bits parties from testifying for themselves, butthus far unpucccfully. Such modifications havegenerally been introduced into the laws of theseveral states of the American Union and Eng-

land. The objection urged against them is, thatthey are likely to induce more perjury. We areof the opinion that the party w ho wishes falsetestimony usually finds it; and that if he wereallowed to testify himself; there would be a betterchance to detect him in the falsehood than whenhe acts through others, while none can deny thatan innocent party is often unjustly punished forno other cause than that his own testimony can-

not be allowed. We hope the next Legislaturewill look into this matter, and keep up withmodern reform on the subject.

TnE statement is made by our cotemporary,that very little interest is shown in the electionby the foreigners generally, and very few of themwill vote;" and then the effort is made to dis-

courage any interest that might exist by adding," an election (as Representative) reflects no honorto any man who values his reputation," fee. Avery hasty and remark; one that,on second thoughts, the editor would not haveprinted. If the character of the representativebody generally has not of late years been such asto reflect honor on the nation, and legislation hasbeen crude and careless, the reason is found inthe fact that foreigners, short-6ight-

ed as to theirown interests, have neither gone to the pollsnor endeavored to exercise a legitimate influencefor the election of suitable men for the office.

However true it may be that this apathy is to betraced to the abrogation of the Constitution of1852, it is not however true that in the Assemblyas now constituted the popular voice is practicallysuppressed. The Gazette, by its sneering, dis-

paraging tone, ia apparently encouraging thisinjurious apathy of foreigners which, if con-

tinued, can have but one result the handingover of the business of law. making and themanagement of government to native Hawaiiansentirely. And this we all know .would hastenthe catastrophe for which some few in our miJr-- t

are ardently hoping the loss of Hawaiian inde-

pendence. Is ia however encouraging to observethat, contrary to the assertion of the Gazette,foreigners are this year taking more than usualinterest in the elections, and that many of themwill vote.

Among the many instances of careless legisla-

tion (to give it no worse name) afforded by thehistory of the session of 1874, is the " Act toabolish the office of Secretary of War and of theNavy. 'J Thero waa certainly nothing objectiona-i?l- e

trrtho astensiblo intention ot the Act, whichwas to relieve tho Department of Foreign Affairsof the burden of a tail-pie- ce that was neitheruseful nor ornamental; but there is one remarka-ble provision that ia worthy of especial attention.It ia declared that " His Majesty may, by specialcommission, confer the dutiea of said office on aCommander-in-Chief;- " who, however, ia to re-

ceive no pay for hia services as euch; and it isfurther provided that no part of any appropriation which may be made for military purposesshall be drawn from the Treasury except by orderof such Commander-in-Chie- f, whose duty it shallbe to account for the particulars of such dis-

bursements biennially to the Legislature." Weare not aware that any euch appointment as ishere contemplated has been gazetted; but justlook at the lax and unguarded nature of the law!Ministerial responsibility, as contemplated by theConstitution, is quite ignored in the matter ofexpenditures nominally for the military, butwhich might be for many other purposes. " Sup-port of military," figured in the last appropria-tion bill at 47,470. Under the Act of whichwe arc speaking thia large sum could be drawnfrom the Treasury in one entire lump, by theCommander-in-Chie- f, and used at hia sole discre-tion, and no Minister would be responsible.

Immigration.To the Editor of the Tacific Commercial Advertiser :

Sir : I perceive that you have in your valuablepaper reverted again to the important topic of immi-

gration. As it appears to be conceded on all sidesthat the East Indian race is the only one which canbe introduced into this country with any degree ofpresent satisfaction and ultimate benefit, I wouldurge that application be made, through the properchannel, to the British Government for assistance inthis all important matter. If a refusal be given,then attention must be turned elsewhere.

I am afraid that our chances of getting this kindof labor are small indeed, knowing as I do the strongfeeling existing in England against importing laboreven to British Colonies. The machinery each colonyis compelled by law to employ in order to avail them-selves of this labor is at once complicated and expen-sive. An agency in Calcutta which, by the way,is the district from which most of the coolies come,and not Madras is one costing a deal of money.Chartering ships with a proper medical staff onboard, good medical attendance and hospitals on eachplantation, schools for the children and a free pas-

sage back to India at the end of five years shouldany desire it, are a few of the conditions imposedupon a British colony employing the India coolie.

It will be expected that, if immigration of this kindbe allowed into what may be termed a foreign coun-

try, these laws will be tightened rather than relaxed.Such being the cose, it is a matter of legitimate'

enquiry whether this kingdom will be prepared toexpend so great a sum of money as the introductionof this system will undoubtedly cost. In the BritishColonics the first outlay is easily met by means of aloan.

I notice that a correspondent speaks of obtainingas many women 'ad children as men. This is ofcourse most desirable, but it is found to be an im-

possibility. Iaihae early days of immigration so few

females came with the men that the evil became in-

tolerable, and now the law is for SO per cent. (Ithink it is) of the number on each ship to be ferur'es.I am not very certain that I am quite exact as tothis per centage, as I am writing from memory, butit is not very far out. "Would it not be well for thequestion to be asked of the British Governmentwhether an application for labor woald be entertain-ed, and if answered in the affirmative, then a care-fully prepared scheme could be submitted.

I am still of opinion that European labor can beobtained, if only some arrangement could be madewhereby a certain portion of land could be given toeach family for the purpose of cultivation. As I saidin a former letter, there would be no difficulty in ob-

taining a supply of labor from England could a fairinducement be held oat to the agricultural class.

Vox.P. S. I noticed that you have fallen into the very

common error of calling Demerara an island. It itin British Giuana.on the South American Continent.

Iii j?, (said ay Utjc'e.) a si.i'i t time, lu: a (v

dijs in fjet after reLttitg to j'.u my !ir-- t ,ttry aboutindiA-ruLtc- r, I was returcing Loitie ty the sa:i.oroad that led by the little Court hru-- c n pictur-

esquely lsicatcl in the IVi le cf India trees As I

approached that little Court house an J the jail thitstood by it, for I arrroache J that jail ; I saw skele- -tens cf horses and mules tied to the fence and trees,

) patiently waiting, I should saj froats ! Oa their! tender backs were all the different shapes, styles and! conditions of saddles, from the time of ' saddle yeI an ass," down to the very latest fashion cf " Cap- -j

tain Jinks cf the horse marines."I could easily surmise there was more business in

Court than usual ; there could not haTe teen a bel-- !ter outside show (of tones) if tbe great Mcgul him-- !self were present. As I gazed cn this lean crowd ofquadrupeds, (for many of them were leaning against

; the fence to hold themselves up.) I thought thereroust be the settling up tf some drunken spree in

j Court ; and besides, if the great Mogul was there Ij wanted to see him and make his acquaintancei which I afterwards did. And as I wanted to learui all I could in relation to the vegetable kingdom, so

that I would be able to tell you all the facts in regardto inJi I conclude 1 to go ia and see what

; had caused this great commotion, in the midst ofthis Sober, sectarian, law-abidin- g, liberty-lovin- g,

j viciuiiyj On entering the Court house, (said my Uncle,) I

thought I was duly sober, (although I had beenlocking at some persons drinking) but it cccurredto me the Court was double, that be was not himselfat all that is, he WjS not all the Court himself.By his side appeared another, an elderly gentlemanof portly mein he looked like a statue hewn out ofhuman llesh in that beautiful, graceful, symmetricalstyle generally attributed to, aud known as a LagerBeer keg ! This person, 9 I afterward learned, wasreally the leading and controlling spirit of the Court.And, (said my Uucle.) I shall designate him asCourt Xo. 1, numbering him according to size, as afarmer does his squashes. The cause before theirhonors the Court was a preliminary examinationof the King vs. James Whistlegood, charged withattempt (it is a hard word to spell, said my Uucle,and I will not mention it.)

The testimony was fully ventilated pro and con,Court No. 1 apparently having his own way, andhis own say in everything. He was morose, intoler-en- t,

extravagant in his zeal to crush the poor trem-bling culprit, who stood cowering beneath his frown.And wheu failing in his expectation to find evidenceleading to conviction, he consoled himself, andstrengthened his spirit of persecution, by saying" It made no difference anyhow, there had been menmurdered right here in this district for two dollarsand a half." Drawing his inference, that if everthere had been a man murdered for two dollars anda half, cf course this prisoner and every one elseagainst whom a criminal charge is laid, must beguilty. But perhaps, (said my Uncle) we would bedoing him injustice to believe this idea originated inhis gigantic mind He had some noble precedentsto lead him to this conclusion. Old Tomposity said,

Somebody did it, and if this fellow can not provehimself innocent, he must be presumed to be guilty."And the Pennsylvania Judge in his charge to thejury said : " This person is charged with a seriouscrime, and inasmuch as he ha9 failed to prove him-

self not guilty, you will do well to bear in mind theold maxim, that it is better to hang nine innocentmen than let one guilty one go free." However,the evidence and the argument closed, aud the casewas submitted to the Court. Court No. 2 remarked," There was a good deal of evidence in both sides ofthis case, and he wanted half an hour to collect thefacts." Upon which the room was cleared, theprisoner in the mean time was placed in charge oftwo deputy sheriffs and two constables for safekeep-ing. At the expiration of half an hour, with somewhistling, and rapping on the window, and somecalling out " all aboard," it was understood thatCourt was called. It oppcard to me, (said myUncle,) that, as there was not the least cause forprosecution, and seeing the smile that was " childlikeand bland " upon the countenance of Court No. 2,I congratulated myself that I had guessed him rightlythis time. His honor pensively aud mildly remarked,

Mr. Whistlegood, there is no evidence to convictyou."

Court No. 1 " Oh ! I thiuk we had better sendhim to Hangtown ; there he can have all the judgesof the Supreme Court to consult."

Court No. 2 I think it is better for me and foryou, that I commit you to the Coort, so that youwill be discharged by a jury of twelve men and leaveno stain on your character."

Then, (said my Uncle,) I thought how pleasant itis to be able to gratify a little personal pique at theexpense of the country with the authority vested inred tape ! I thought of the other story I told you,and I thought of Ixdia-Rubbe- u !

A. Teirce, who introduced to His Majesty, J. Dates

Dickson Ksq., Commercial Agent for the Empire ofJapan, who had been lately appointed to thia positionupon the resignation of Mr. IVirce.

On Wednesday the 2Cth inttant at 12 o'clock noon,Ilia Majesty received at Iolani Palace, F. A. SchaeferEsijuire, Consul for Ilia Majesty the King of Italy,to present to His Majesty the Insignia cf KnightGrand Cross of the ancient Order of tho SuiutaMauriztua and Lazarus.

On presenting the Insignia Mr. Schaefer wide thefollowing address. ,

Siac It is my agreeable Juty to present lo Your Maj-nt-

the Insignia of the ancient Order of the Saints Mauritius amiLazarus, of which my Sovereign I, as teen tleased to rreatoYour Majesty a Knight Crand Cross, uYcorateil with the Cran'lCordpn or the Order.

I a in instructed on this occasion to give expression to thehigh esteem and consideration which my Sovereign and theRoyal Family of idly entertain for V ir Majesty, and the in-

terest which the King takes in the stt'liire and roicrity ofYour Majesty and of your people, as well as in the continuedgood will and friendship, so happily existing between the King-

doms of Hawaii and Italy.

To which Ilia Majesty replied :

Ma. CostiuL I accept with much pleasure these Insigniaof the ancient Order of the Suiuls Maurizlus and Latarus, ofwhich it has pleased your Sovereign the King of Italy to createmc a Knight Grand Cross.

1 assure you that I highly esteem this distinguished honor,and I am much gratified at the kind sentiments which,through you, your Sovereign and the Royal Family of Italyexpress for the welfare and prosierity of myself and of mypeople. It will always be my anxious desire to reciprocatethese kind feelings towards the King of Italy, and to cherishand preserve the good will and friendship which to happilyexists between the two Kingdoms.

Mr. Schaefer then presented to Ilia Majesty JuliusHoting, Esq., Secretary to the Italian Consulate.

Ilia Majesty took occasion to inform Mr. Schaeferthat it gave him much pleasure to appoint him tothe grade of Knight Commander of the Royal Orderof Kamchameba I. and presented him with theInsignia.:""IIis Majesty was attended on this occasion Ly II.R. II. William Pitt Leleiohoku, TLeir Excellencies W.L. Green, Minister of Foreign Affairs; W. L. Moe-honu- a,

Minister of Interior; J. S. Walker, Ministerof Finance; J. O. Doroinis, Governor of Oahu; Hon-orabl- es

After the audience the company was invited to acollation, during which the Hon. C. C. Harris at therequest of Ilia Majesty the King, proposed the hoalthof His Majesty the King of Italy, as follows :

The House of Savoy has been illustrious, during many cen-

turies, lor the brilliancy of the talents ol its chiefs, and for theprosperity which lias attended their enterprises. And nevermore illustrious than y, this family, having its origin inthe mists of antiquity, early in the 12th century, were takinga prominent part iu the affairs of the " Holy Roman Empire,'and from the 14th century have steadily made advance in ter-

ritorial and political Influence.I have aaid that thia brilliant and fortunate family have

never been more brilliant or more fortunate than now. Hispresent Majesty having succeeded to the thione by the abdica-

tion cf his father in 1349, has gathered around him the iwtillustrious statesmen and the most glorious warriors Cavourand Garibaldi. To mention their names is sufficient, withoutcomment. Under this reign, conflicting interests have been sofar reconciled as to make a United Kingdom of the Italian Pe-

ninsula, and the ancient mistress of the work! is, once more,the capital of Italy, and Instead of being the lone mother ofdead empires only, is now the capital of a living, breathingand progressive Kingdom, The toast y, therefore, in HiMajesty, the King of Italy and the Italian Nation, no longerthe Italian States. Long life and continued prosperity to theKing.

The toast was duly honored, the band playing theNational Italian Hymn.

Mr. Schaefer then proposed the health of HisMajesty the King of the Hawaiian Islands with theaccompanying remarks :

Voir Majesty In the name of Ills Majesty the King ofItaly, I have the honor to thank V'our Majesty for the noblemanner in which you were pleased to propose his health andcontinued prosjierity to the Italian Nation.

While this interesting occasion is an exchange of interna-tional courtesy and good feeling, it is also the expression fpersonal esteem and friendship conveyed from Sovereign loSovereign.

His Majesty the King cf Italy, in his own words, confersthia distinguished Order npon Your Majesty from bis own im-

pulse, to testify to the high sense of regard and considerationwhich be entertains for Your Majesty, personally.

The visit of His Royal Highness the Duke of Genoa to theseislands has been instrumental of establishing and strengthen-ing these sentiments. The kindness and friendship then

to the Duke by Yoar Majesty is gratefully rememberedand fully recognized by His Majesty the King of Italy and bythe Royal House cf Savoy.

In the name of rny Sovereign, I have the honor to proposethe health and prosperity of Your 51aj-sty- , ol the RoyalFamily of Hawaii and the Hawaiian Nation.

Mr. Harris then remarked that during the year1873 the Italian National Fhip GaribaMi arrived,bringing as visitor to these Inlands, His Royal High-ness the Duke cf Genoa. Hia Majesty the King, atthat time Prince David Kalakaaa, formed the acquaintance cf His Royal Highness and was so stronglyimpressed with friendly feelings towards him, thaton His accession to the Throne, he saw fit to markhis remembrance of the visit by conferring upon IliaRoyal Highness the decoration cf Knight GrandCross of the Order cf Kamthameha I. This visitHis Msjesty still holds in the most pleasant remem-

brance and baa commanded me to ask you, gentlemen,to join in a pledge to the health and prosperity ofHia Royal Highness the Lake cf Genoa.

Land Grants. A case came up in the FupremeCourt during the late term, involving to some extentthe effect of a patent to one man for another. The casewas Kane against Perry, the plaintiff claiming undera patent issued to Kamaha for Maraea, a heir to Ka-mah- a,

and also to Maraea, and cf her son Paleka-luh- i.

The defendant pleaded in bar a deed fromPalckaluhi as role heir of Maraea deceased. TheCourt ruled that as the plaintiff neither admittednor denied the allegation that Palckaluhi was Ma-

raea' son and sole heir, that was a fact for a jury;but that if it turned out that this allegation wastrue, the plaintiff could not recover. The defendantoffered in verification of his plea the will of Maraeadeclaring ber con Pulekaluhi to be her sole heir anddcviice, and asked for judgment on the pleadingswith thia verification, provided the plaintiff declinedtrial. But the Court declined to rule thus, and thecase ended by the plaintiff withdrawing bis case.

The Ciiinkse Festival. Commencing on Tuesdsynight and lasting until Thursday night, the Chineseresidents cf Honolulu have been celebrating theirnew years. the leading merchants, repre-sented by Afongand Achuck and Chulan Pros ,

down to small traders and bousehol I servants, all badtheir spread cf tea and good things, and receivedcallers on Wednesday. Immense quantities cf Crecrackers and Chinese bombs were let of!, and music (?)from celestial bands "rattled the welkin's ear."Outside barbarians made numerous calls on theirChinese acquaintances, and were received everywherewith a hearty welcome to well-sprea- d tables. Rutthe visit that left the plcasmte-t- t recollection on curminds, was one we made to a company cf ChristianChinese, who, with Hit Moon the colporteur at theirbead, form a little colony by them wires. On a tablecf modest proportions but amply provided with lux-

uries an 1 the indispensable pot cf bet tea, was pro-

minently displayed the emblem cf Christianity,wreathed with evergreens and Sowers and crownedwith the symbolic pi-sio- n flower. In Chinese char-acters on strips of red paper were displayed scrip-tural texts and religioas tentirndnts. On the shelvesabout the room were books in Chinefc and Englishthe ell and new Testaments, and school Locks.Viewing the unpretentious scene, we are led to re-

Th general authority of tb legislature I exer-

cise its police power and to prohibit tb Importation

th further reason that it make lb aale of opium aenal offVioT, wbetcas hy other laws cf lb Kingdom

(acts of IWitl, and acta of 1H74. chap UK) lb Iwpor.talioii and aale cf opium hy ticcuneJ dealer waa

authorised, and therefor thia law is" rttropctlv'and void, being contrary to article 1C of (be consti-

tution, which declares that "No fttroctlv laahall ever l enacted."

A complete answer to this objection Is lb fact thatthe opium wbicb fat's prisoner waa oouvlcted of rilingwaa proven at tb trial to bav been bought by himsome two mouths Ufor lb aal cf wbicb L wasconvicted, and at that date tb law which authorised

the aalo cf opium by licensed dealers was not In fore,but bad become abrogated hy lb law under discus,

ion. Moreover, lb of opium hy any other

thm liceused dealers or Physicians waa forbidden hytho former laws above refered lo.

Secliou 1, therefore, of lb act under wbltb Iblaprisoner is indicted and convicted Is constitutional,and the court will not listen lo objection mad hyAim, as lo th unconstitutionality cf other parts ofthia act, for A is right art not Involved any further.II can only Inqulr whether hi conviction I undera constitutional law.

Th prisoner Jliiu ia Indiotcd under amotion I cfthis act, wbicb read : "Any person who shall bav

lo bis fosscssion opium, cr any preparation thereofwhich be ah all not bav received from tb Hoard ofHealth or from ft duly licensed Physician or Burgonaa prescribed in section t, of this aot, shall forfeitucb opium or preparation thereof to tb Hawaiian

Government, and tb aaui aball b seised and de-

livered to tb Hoard of Health, anJ such personhall be imprisoned for ft term of not nor than on

year, with or without Lard labor In tb discretion oflb court."

This Hection la also claimed to b unconstitutional,

beoauio " retrospective."Her w must notlo tb failure on tb part of th

prisoner to show that this opium wbicb b Lad In LI

possession bad been purchased from ft duly !Unsddealer In opium whil the law authorising It waa Inforce.

Rut why nay not on legislature doclar Illegaltrafho wbicb ft previous Legislature bad auctioned fHucb a law is not trictly " rralrospective," It doe

not impair any " vested right," forth privilege ofimporting opium by a licensed dealer, while It existed,waa ft statutory privilege and lasted for Lut on year,as was also tb right to soil opium to chinamanand th law I settled that ft statutory privllrg I

not ft vested right.Th effect of the principle contended for hy tb

prisoners counsel would b lo prevent tb Legislatureof this King lorn from repealing any of tb existinglicense law and from prohibiting the exercls of aoyparticular traffic now licensed; aa In lb cas ofspirit for example, tb trad in which Is now licensed,but which the next Legislature might deem burtMto the community and wish to prohibit.

On grounds of publio policy the Legislature formcrly thought it wis and proper to restrict tb lmportation and aal of opium by allowing tbi privi-

lege to two licensed dealer in Honolulu at blgU

charge, and they mad the further restriction that Itcould be roll only lo Chinamen ; th Act of lb74restrict the Importation and sale of tbi drug stillfurther by conferring thia privilege upon the Hoardof Health alone.

This law la not unjust or oppress! v In tbi regard,for it gave one year notice be for it went Into oper-

ation, and this period tb Legislator considered tobe ample time in which all parties having opium latheir possession could rid themselves of tb artlol.

The case presented is not that of lb licenseddealers, under th atat of facts of tb legislator4Vy one law authorising them lo Irojiort opium andthen by another law making the possession of tbUopium a penal offense and tb opium liabl to confis-

cation; for if, without due and reasonable nolle tothem, their property tbua legally ucquired and boldshoal 1 be confiscated, they might perhaps bav Justgrounds for presenting a claim for indemnity to tblegislature.

Hut it ia claimed that Hection &1 of tbi Aot iaunconstitutional and void because ther I nothingin the title cf the Act to indicate that lb possessionof opium is punishable; and that ibis Heolion,

broader than the title, should fall.It is only necessary that the till of an Act shout

express ita object, I. e. the purpose for wbutb It la Intended, and it ia not necessary, that every provisionof the Act should be indicate I In tb title, for thatwould require the title to be a full and comprehen-sive aa the Act its I. It ia sufficient if tb ffeetioaunder contention In truth carries out tb object ofthe Act itself.

The ol ject of the Act ia declared by tb till t Uthe restricting of the Importation aod aale of opium,and this Pection Z, punishes tb having of tbopium in possession, which tends absolutely and di-

rectly to restrict its importation and aal. It i truthat the Kection waa intended also to bav tb edictcf preventing tb us of opium; bat though tbimay be one of th legitimat effect effbia fWtlonand perhaps lis most obvious intention, It is not anconstitutional, for it also carries out the decUredobject of the law, I. e. the restriction of tb linportalion and rale cf opium In tbla Kingdom. tv

The revenue law against amuggling eontata provision that article upon which IL duties are not '"

pai l may be confiscated; but tuck law ar bet anconstitutional, because their object i tb raising ofrevenue.

In order ti prohibit kale of opium otherwise thanby th Hoard of Health or upon prescription of dulygraduated and licensed Physician la case of alck

ns, lb law baa mod it poMalon Illegal, exceptas above limited; and we do not 'consider tuck ft lawto be unconstitutional.

The Cultivation oi Ramie.We make a ftw extracts from a painpMct on the

" culture and manufacture cf Ramie aad Jute iathe United states." by Emile Lefranc, of NewOrleans, published by tbe Department of Agricul-ture at Washington. Tbe following rules are con-

sidered necessary for tbe cultivation of Raaiie inthe United States, and with some obvious modi-

fications tLey will apply here :

First. Whether for nursery purposes or fjr cul-

tivation, the land must be tuSciently elevated toreceive the benefit of natural drainage, becausethe roots will not livt long in a watery bottom.

Secondly. The Soil must be deep. rich, light,and moist as tbe andy alluvia of LouUiana.Manure supplies the defects in some lands in theserespects.

Thirdly. Tbe field must be thoroughly cleared j

of weeds, plowed twice to the depth of 8 or 10inches if possible, Larrowed as much as a thorough j

pulverizing requires, am. careiuny ununeu uydiscriminate lines and ditches. Water mustbe allowed to stand in the rows of the plant.

The land being thus prepared, planting becomt s

easy and promising. December, January, andj

February are the best months in which to plant.Roots, ratoons. and rooted layers are the onlyavailable seed. They are generally 4 or 5 incheslong, carefully cut, not torn, ironi the mother-plan- t.

Tbe dusty seed produced by ramie stalksin the fall can be sown, but it is so delicate andrequires so much care during the period of ger-

mination and growth that it seldom succeeds inopen land. The regular germinating power ofthat dusty seed is also questionable. The Depart-ment of Agriculture yainly tried, a few years ago,to diffuse this seminal cultivation by distributingimported seed, which never germinated.

In the presence of these difficulties, and of thesure propagation obtained from fractional roots,sowing has been abandoned and replanting adoptedas follows :

Furrows 5 or C inches deep und 5 feet apart areopened with the plow. The roots are laid length-wise in the middle, close in succession if a thickstand of crop is desired, but placed at intervals ifnursery propagation is tbe object in view.

The first mode will absorb 3,000 roots per acre,but will save the labor of often filling tbe stand bypropagation. Tbe second mode will spare three-fourt- hs

of that amount of roots, but will imposetbe obligation of multiplying by layers. Beingplaced in tbe furrow closely or at intervals theroots are carefully covered with the boe. Pulver-ized earth and manure spread over tbe roots insurean early and luxuriant growth in the spring, tfhenthe shoots have attained a foot in height they arebilled up like potatoes, corn, and all other plantsthat require good footing and protection from thefermenting effect of stagnant water. The intervalsbetween the rows being deepened by tbe hillingLave also a draining influence, which can be ren-

dered still more effective by ditches dug acrossfrom distant to distant, say 15 feet.

Good crops are obtained by thickening tbestands. Tbe stems aro then abundant, tine, straight,and rich in fiber. Close planting is then necessary,inasmuch as it prevents tbe objectionable branch-

ing of tbe stalks. Crooked and branchy ramie isunfit for mechanical decortication ; it causes wasteand yields an inferior quality of fiber. The periodat which the plant is ripe for cutting is indicatedby a brownish tinge at the foot of the stems. Atthat early stage tbe plant, though greenish, yieldsa fine and abundant Glament ; it also producesthree or four crops, according to soil and climate.The Grst cutting may be unprofitable on accountof tbe irregularity and sparseness of tbe growth ;

but if the stand is well razeed and manured overthe stubbles the ensuing cuttings will be produc-tive. For that purpose tbe field must be keptclear of grass until the growth be sufficiently denseto expel the parasites by its That neces-

sary density is obtained by means of tbe impor-

tant laying process. This consists in bending down,right and left along the growing stand, tbe highestswitches, and in covering them with earth up tothe tender tip, which must not be smothered. Oneof the causes of the perennity and of tbe vigor of

the plant is the nourishment it draws from tbeagencies of the atmosphere. Consequently theleaves of the layers should never be buried underground. Wrhen properly performed, laying is veryprofitable ; it creates an abundance of new roots,and fills up rapidly tbe voids of tbe stand.

After two years tbe plants may be so thick asto spread out in the rows. Then the plow of thestubble-cutte- r has to chop in a line, on one side,the projecting ratoons. If well executed this opera-tion leads to notable advantages :

First. It extracts roots or fractional plants suit-able for tbe extension of tbe cultivation elsewhere.

Secondly. It maintains, as a pruning, a vigorouslife and develops a luxuriant growth in tbe stand.

Thirdly. If always applied on the same side oftbe row, this sort of stubble-cuttin- g has the remar-kable advantage of removing gradually the growthtoward tbe unoccupied land in tbe intervals, andof pushing it into a new position without distur-bance,

That slow rotation preserves the soil from rapidexhaustion, and the ramie from- - decay, throughthe accumulation of roots undtfr ground. Ofcourse this lateral plowing will not prevent theoppoeitelrow from receiving the benefit of hoeingafter each crop. Experiments made in Louisianahave demonstrated the efficiency of that method ;to which are due the preservation and propagationof the plant in that State, while it has been de-

stroyed in other sections for want of similar care.It is through such judicious methods that the old

land of China has preserved sufficient fertility toproduce constantly the ramie for many centuries.After each cutting Chinese planters plow on oneside and make cleanly tbe stand ; then they coverit with a thick coat of manure. That maintainsthe moisture and fertility of tbe soil, and, at tbesame time, preserves the plant from excessive heator extreme cold.

Case of the Bark Richmond, Capt. Weeks.The owners of the whaling bark Richmond pre-

ferred a claim before the Court of Commissioners ofAlabama Claims, for compensation for the use of thesaid vessel and damage and consequent loss of theseason in the Arctic in tbe year 1SG5, by taking toSan Francisco tbe officers and crews of some eightvessels, burnt by the Confederate cruiser Shenan-doah. The petition was dismissed last month, tbeCourt taking occasion to speak very highly of theconduct of Capt. W. P. Weeks on the occasion re-

ferred to, and expressed its regrets that there wasno authority under the Act of Congress to grantcompensation.' Capt. Weeks is now first officer ofthe ship M. J"ottebuhm, in this port. The NewYork World thus comments on the case :

' We may go further than it was proper perhaps fora judge to go, and say that the conduct of Capt.Weeks ought to make his name a household wordwherever the English tongue is spoken, and men ofEnglish blood rejoice in the simple, unpretentious,

ed virtues of them that go down to tbesea in ships.' The story of the Richmond is such astory as Daniel Defoe should be alive again to tell.And yet not even Daniel Defoe could better themanly, homely English in which Capt. Weeks himself tells it. We seem to see him, and to see intothe simple, straightforward workings of his honestsailor's heart, as we read bis statement to the Court.now, when he came up in Behring Strait with awhalcship on fire, not knowing the cause of it,'

he forbore to puzzle himself with vain conjectures,bat set to work saving such articles as he could thatmight be ' valaable to the use of his own ship,'since the wind was against him, and he felt that he

Wh'.'.e he was thus engel there came ' a ship witha'.l sill tct' that Laiicd him a. it swept ly and ad-tt- d

him to fkc, fince there was a j irate close at

hiul.' How upon receiving this ghastly ccw, hegratcly debated iu h:s cwa ei:o 1 wh.tt ii;s duty was,caice to the conclusion that Le miht us well hhis ship as take no c:!, aud, knowing al! Tuat wilJraciSj Wiste cf waters as laud men kecw Broadway,t.lucki'y resolved thst be would wait fr a foggy

sight still another sail coming toward ' him, i

which, when the wind died away, lowered a boat j

and sent it after him. How, when this boat came j

alongside, be wa3 surprise! to see so many faces i

cf shipmasters.' Wan faces they were, doubtless, j

and sad to Le looked upon by this brave shipmaster'seyes. fr they were the faces of masters whose ships j

had been taken from under them and burned at sea; j

ruined masters, shipless now, and crowded with j

hundreds of men sbipless like themselves, iuto the j

narrow hold of a single vessel, the General Pike. !

All this good Capt. Weeks in Lis simple way setsf x anJ thcQ came tfae straJu 0Q Lij Le;m For

un!mrrlT .Lirmasters besreed him to relievetsj rand take them off, beiog afraid of sickness on ac

count of the crowded state of their ship.' It was asore trial. To comply was to abandon hi voyage.He had dared continue his voyage when nothingthreatened him but ' the pirate ' and capture andconflagration in those Arctic seas Now God andhumanity threatened him and he found them sternerfoes. He did not yield without a struggle. Hewent on board to see for hiuisclf, and found thesepoor shipmasters had not ' misrepresented the mat-

ter.' It was as bad as could be. There was no

help for it. Tbe stout heart that had not blenchedbefore the pirate' gave away. Capt. Weeks con-

sulted with bis officers and came to tbe conclusionthat they ought to relieve' those poor fellows.

I dared not do otherwise,' are his simple, touch-ing words. He did not do otherwise. He took theruined shipmasters out cf their floating hospital.He carried them to Honolulu, ' thereby losing hisseason. And now, while all the men he saved maycome into court and get their compensation for the

season' of which ' the pirate ' deprived them,brave, generous, manly Capt. Weeks has no case.

It was not the pirate ' that cost him his season.It was heaven and his own sound heart. Surely itis a hard case. Tbe law is the perfection of humanreason, of course. But we wonder whether goodJudge Jewell, in his inmost heart, when be gave hisdecision, did not wish the law might sometimes be atrifle less reasonable ' than it is?"

Boston, Dec. 22. Shortly before 7 P. M x terri-ble explosion occurred in South Boston, by which alarge number of persons were injured and severalkilled. It is impossible as yet to learn the cause ofthe explosion or extent of tbe damage. A large gusmain running under Federal street bridge to SouthBoston, and along tbe water's edge under the pave-ment on Federal street, exploded with a loud report,tearing up the pavement for 150 feet or more. Thestreet was thronged with people at the time, andmany were buried under the debris. Crosby's grainwarehouse was badly shattered, and will have to betaken down. The foreman was instantly killed. Itis supposed that several persons were blown into tbewater. Several dead bodies have already been takenout. Killed and wounded thus far: Killed, 2; fatallyinjured, 4; seriously hurt, 9; slightly injured, 30; 7persons missing and supposed to be blown into thewater and drowned. It is thought that the recentcold weather caused tbe pipe to burst, and theground becoming impregnated with gas, ignitionfrom some cause communicated with the gas.

Bostox, Dec. 23. Thousands of people visited thescene of the disaster at Federal street bridge. Thesearch for the bodies was resumed by the police, andtwo more were recovered those of Geo. Elwell andJohn Kells. Elwell was in the employ of Johnson &Co., and Kells, of the Adams Express Co. Thewounded are doing well and will likely recover.
