OF The SANDWICH ISLANDS.



I have positive and undeniable information,
from the highest sources at Honolulu TO the
effect that a Treaty liz about concluded be-
tween Mr.. Gregg the United States Comm;s-
sioner, aud the Government Of the Islsnds for
their annexation to the United States forth
with. The only unsettled question in relation
to the annexation is, whether tho Islands shall
come in rs Territory or State. Mr.. Gregg
insists on the former. The Administration
here at Washington is perfectly advised as to
the position Of the negotiations.
This is kept profound secret at Honolulu,
to all out Of the court circle The King and
Privy Council have the constitutional power to
make the treaty, and, in fear Of filibustering or
something else in the way Of foreign invasion,
they are exercising it. The native population
is undoubtedly opposed to annexation, while
the majority Of the foreign residents desire IL.

FOR KANSAS AND NEBRASKA.

The first party from this city for the new
Territory Of Kansas left the Worcester depot
yesterday afternoon, large number CT per-
sons being present to witness their departure,
and, az the train started, greet them with
hearty cheers. The party consisted of sixteen
persons, young and aotivs men, Of whom three
were from this city, three from Roxbury, four
from Vermont, and two from Lynn. IL is cal
culated that the party will receive large Access
sions on the route between this and St. Louis
Another, and probably much larger party,
will start from this city on the Let of August.
At Worcester, the Kansas party received an
Accession Of twenty-nine, which, the Spy says,
are stalwart men, strong in their bodies, and
strong Of purpose" They take with them tents
for summer residences hatchets, ploughs, and
other implements Of industry, supplied by the
Emigrant Aid Society; and they take with
themselves, individually, such weapons as are
necessary 20 keep foxes, minks, wolves, and
bears, from their settlements
Boston Traveller, 18Th.
Tho treaties made By Gatewood, with the
Indians Of Nebraska, were framed 30 as to ad-
init Ct pre- emptions 10 settlers and pioneers.
Instead Of adopting those treaties Manypenny
had the Indiana carried to Washington, and
changed the treaties, under the advice Of Atch-
ison ard the other nulsfers 80 ss to deny to
settlers pre- emption rights, and put the land
up to the highest bidder; thus enabling the
spectators to buy the land oyer the heads Of
the hardy settlers. A similar course was taken
in regard to the treaties with the Indians Of
Kansas. They were taken on to Washington,
and the negotiations carried on under the eye
and guidance Of Atchison, in order to deprive
the settlers Of the right Of presumption The
object Of this was to prevent poor men from
settling the country, and making il free State.
Whom these facts are taken in connection with
the late proceedings against the people Of the
Northwest, by Atchison's ofice-holders, for tres.
passing on the public lands we can no longer
doubt Atchison's hostility TO the hardy settlers
Of the West, and his determination 70 deprive
them, as far as possible, Of the presumption Sc

SELECT SPEECHES OF KossuTH, condensed and
abridged, with Kossuth's express sanction. By
Francis w. Newman. New York G. s. Francis
4 Co.. Boston: Crosby Nichols, 4 Co.
These speeches comprise most of those de
livered in the United States, as well as Eng
land, in 1851 and 1852.
Every intelligent American must have felt
equal surprise and pleasure, to witness the
profound and intimate knowledge of our coun-
try which Kossuth displayed in his numerous
public speeches while in this country. We
have been go accustomed to the laundering
ignorance Of the English whenever they at
tempt to speak Of our country, that it is truly
refreshing to meet with such clear and definite
notions Of American institutions in foreigner;
and what adds to our surprise and our interest
is the fact that that foreigner comes from the
remotess frontier of Europe-from country
having none of the sympathies of language or
religion, or the material interests of commerce,
to bind him to our own.
But this is not the chief merit of Kossuth's
speeches They have intrinsic value of no or
binary kind. American statesmen and public
lists may learn much that is new of the far
reaching tendencies Of our institutions, from
Koasuth His rare genius, day after day. du-
ring bis brief scjourn among US, flashed forth
new light upon the pathway of our destiny.
The present volume is printed in neat and
elegant style, and we cordially commend it to
our readers. 1t should be in every library.

ment is to make the Improvement so ms to benefit

ought TO have the money asked by the officer

OF Colonel II. II. Lee.
When was cut off in my remarks yesterday,
said should move to increase the appropriation
for the rapids In the upper Mississippi river, and
now desire TO explain to the Committee the
precise situation Of matters connected with this
work The first appropriation under which the
survey Of these rapids was made, was made in
1897. The survey was made by Colonel Lee,
one OF the most accomplished engineers in the
United States service. lie prepared his plans and
made his estimates, and in an official document,
which hold here, he made a report which was
approved by the engineering department OF the
Government for the improvement of the Des
Moines and Rock Island rapids. His estimates,
prepared after most thorough survey, are put
down in his report which have before me. lie
estimated $3.50 900 as the sum necessary to inn
prove the Des Moines rapids, and Slb4,ooo TOR
the Rock River rapids, according to his plans and
survey
This report has never been called IN question
these estimates have never been invalidated, but
the work has not been done as the engineer pro-
posed Il should be done. Two years ago, there
was an appropriation Of 100000 made for the
Improvement Of both these rapids. That appro-
priation as stated yesterday, has been partially
FILTERED away by resurvey. One third Of it,
S33, oo0---as shown by the report here, has al

strikes down, at one blow, the writ of habeas
corpus, and the right of trial by jury; which
commits the great question Of personal liberty,
not to q judicial trial, but to summary pro-
cess before magistrate, appointed, not By the
President with the concurrence Of the Senate,
but by the court which forbids the exercise OF

grade man below the beasts which perish, by
accounting him and his precious rights Of too
little value to be entitled to jury trial, less
than SEQ which holds out the bribe Of

ing human being to slavery; which, in short
overthrows all the safeguards Of human rights,
