PUBLIC SPIRIT OF THE TOWNSHIPS OF
NEW ENGLAND
To be continued.

In America, not only do municipal bo-
dies exist, but they are kept alive and
supported by public spirit. The town
ship of New England possesses two
advantages which iniaIIibIv secure the at
tentive interest Of mankind, namely, IN
dependence and authority. lis sphere is
indeed small and limited, but within that
sphere its action is unrcstraIned; and its
independence would give to it real i'm
portance, even if its extent and population
did not ensure it.
1t is to be remembered that the affect
ions OF men are generally turned only
where there is strength. Patriotism is
not durable in conquered nation. The

ship, not only because he was born in it,
but because 1t constitutes strong and
free social body of which he is member,
and whose government claims and de-
serves the exercise of his sagacity. In
Europe the absence of local public spirit
is frequent subject of regret to those
who are IN power; every one agrees that
there is no surer guarantee of order and
tranquility, and yet nothing is more diff
ficult to create. If the municipal bodies
were made powerful and independent,
the authorities of the nation might be
disunited, and the peace of the country
endangered. Yet, without power and in
dependence, town may contain good
subjects, but it can have no active citi-
zens. Another important fact is that the

Reign Of LihoHho. V
Lholiho had around him a train of
hvorltes, some of them were skilled in
fattery, and some were honest; yet from
drinking rum they all became sycophants
and PARISHES, and unfit to impart salutary
counsel. One who had been drinking
pretended to teach the religion of God,
but his folly was manifest.
The first year of his reign Liholiho dwelt
at kona, visiting in the mean time Maui
and Ello. Then he and his court remov-
ed their residence to Lahaina. There
portion OF chiefs and people had dance.
After this he departed to Oahu where he
was tempted to excessive drinking. He
was immersed in rum, SO that he bath
ed IN it daily as in water. When in
toXlcatcd the foreigners sold him cloth,
and he contracted debts for goods to
oestow on his favorites and incorporate
cmels-a bundle to each. The chiefs
also gave to their men to some ten
packages, to some five to others two {;
the king also bought several vessels on
credit. In this way the king became in
VOWED, and his subjects exhausted in
collecting sandal wood. For this purpose
they spent long seasons inland, and many
dled IN the mountains.
The natives labored diligently to paw
me debts, but without success, for the
iaVorltes at court were not less diligent
IN contracting new ones, saying, Let us
run into debt that the chiefs and common
people may by burdened, since we issue
no orders to them.
Hence the public debt was augment
ea' which from that day to this has not
