The SANDWICH ISLAND BABY PRINCE.-On the
18th of June the foreign children of Honolulu
formed procession and proceeded in a body to the
residence of the King of the Sandwich Islands and
presented the infant prince with beautiful little
carriage worth 5000 Master Everett, four years
old, made the speech to the King:
"Sire: You would scarce expect one of my age
to speak to king; but have come with the for
eign children of Honolulu to your little boy the
Prince of Hawaii. We desire to present him this
little carriage as mark of our respect"
His Majesty replied nearly as follows:
81 thank thee, Master Everett, and your little
companions for the present you have made to my
infant boy. appreciate it as another expression
of sympathy so generally manifested in the foreign
community in his behalf You have but followed
your parents example, and feel highly honored

and the quantity exhibited has been too small to form
fair estimate of the probable yield. The bulk of
the crop has yet to be gathered, and the weather
must still decide the character of the markets; but
the tendency this week has been, on the whole, ra-
Their downwards. Very conflicting accounts still
obtain; but beyond fair average can hardly be ex-
pected, either here or in America: while Europe
generally seems below this expectation. 1t is well
that the overplus of the last crop will be available
to fill up any void. Potatoes have kept improving

the drought has made the tubers smaller than usual
Beans and peas seem bad everywhere, barley and

own, have experienced some fluctuations leaving
but small difference from last reports. Still, as
many are above our own rates, holders here seem

An UNCOMFORTABLE OFFICE-ln that highly in
teresting work, ''Dav Down in Africa" by Mrs.
Anne NJ Scott, it is stated that among the Grebo
tribe of Africans, the shrewdest and most enterpris-
ing of African tribes, the government is much more
of democracy than a monarchy, and that the pow
err of the king is very limited No enactment of his
pie. He IS priest as well prince, and lives in an
anointed house, but the people expect him ensure
them success in all their undertakings, and when
misfortunes overtake them he is regarded as their
anointed the patriarcRs give him their respective
charges: "Let trade be active; cause the earth to
bring forth abundanty; let health prevail; drive
far away; let witchcraft be kept in allegiance"
President of the United States, who if he does not
lose his head, is very apt to forfeit his place. if he
don't fulfill expectations quite reasonable those

A Fire Tournament at Cleveland.

At the gathering of Firemen at Cleveland
on Thursday last, there certainly was great
time among the boys. The Neptune, of Day
ton claimed the first prize, throwing water a
distance of 1O4 feet inches. The Torrent
Engine Co., of Mansfield, entered the lists and
paid their entrance fee, but were ruled out by
the other companies on account of their not
being on hand at the beginning of the playing,
and therefore could not compete for the prize.
The machine was a first,class one, and after
wards threw distance of 1913 feet. After
the contest was over, the Fountain Company
of Bellefontaine, tried their engine and threw
distance GIG feet! which would have won
the prize.
The Cleveland Leader, referring to the tri-
umph of the Dayton Company, says:
"At the corner of Ontario and Prospect
streets, when the time came for the playing
of the Neptune Company, of Dayton she be-
ing the last on the list of first class machines
there was much excitement and anxietyas to
the result. No. of Cleveland had thus far
carried the broom, but the Dayton boys put
to it with will, determined to g win or die. y
On the first trial the hose burst, but on the
second full, clear stream flowed several feet
beyond all preceding ones, and, the fact being
made known. such shout rent the air as
showed the capacity of their lungs to be
above par. Many of the Company were al
most wild with delight-and took the most
comical method of showing it. The scene
was worth seeing, and would prove good
antidote to ypocondracism.'

How the Public Money is Used and
How Home Interests are Cherish ed.

1t seems pretty evident that Mr.. Buchanan
and his officials used the peoples money pref
tv freely to brbe Lecompton through Con-
gress, and the proof is perfect. The con-
duct of the administration in awarding con-
tract for iron pipes to DC used in supplying
Washington City W tn water, which was CIV
en- to party favorire at more than the mini
um price for which practical mechanics pro-
posed to furnish them, has been the subject
of much indignant comment. This job was
given by the contractor to Scotch manufac
turer at Glasgow, and the successful bidder
in this case was Owen Jones, LecomptOn
member of Congress from Pennsylvania =
This shows how legislators were paid for
stultify"g themselves and deceivlng their
constituents, even at the expense of the great
manufacturing interests of our country. The
Scotch manufacturers are fulfilling their sub
contract while all the Pennsy vania, New York
and New Jersey foundries, which were able
fill the contract, were refused the work, and
in consequence of this award, it is said that
orders to the amount 5000 tons of iron have
been countermanded to furnaces on the Leigh.
There is double wrong in this conduct, it is
wrong to send so valuable contract across
the Atlantic thus Withholding employment
from home labor at time when it stands so
much in need of encouragement and it is
wrong to procure water p pes abroad, when 1t
is notorious that they can be made much bet

1t is stated by Burdock that the wife of a

weaver in Nvucrchenfeld, 20 years married,

She had at her last confinement three child
ren one living and two dead. Her husband
was a twin, she herself one OF four. Her
mother had produced % children, and died
during a confinement with twins. The great
est number of children eve, produced at one
birth appears to have six, all Of HON were

From the Winona Republican.
The state Printing Contracts.

An article in another column of this paper,
from the Saltwater Messenger, very forcbly
illustrates the policy and practice If the De-
mocracy of this State in their administrative
capacity. To obviate the perpetIatio of
frauds, or the carrying out of partizan schemes
in the State Printing, law was passed re-
curing that all Contracts for executing work
OF this kind should De let to the lowest res
ponsibe bidder. In compliance with the law,
proposals were invited by the Auditor of the
State, and were in due time forwarded TO that
functionary from several printing establi-h-
rnents in the State, whose capacity for doing
the work, responsibility for its faithful execu-
ton, according to requirement, are beyond
question. 1t will be perceived that in exam
lning those proposals. and in the final award
oil the CONT acts, neither the rights OF the
several bidders, nor the Interests of the State,
| were regarded or taken care Of Although
In every instance there We're two or more
proposals from capable and responsible per-
sons, at lower rates than were proposed by
The st. Paul Pioneer, yet to that establish
ment, it being the organ of the Democracy,
| and in partZan sense entitled to official
patronage, were awarded the contracts for
different classes of printing and binding. We
| have yet to learn what excuse the Auditor
las to proffer in defense of this imposition
on the rights of the people but whatever it
may be, there can be nothing clearer Or more
certain than that the whole thing was con-
summated in accordance with pre- concerted
plan, for the benefit of the party organ. This
Is rendered more absolutely certain in our
minds by the declaration, prior to the award,
OF some OF the Pioneer's Democratic compe-
titorS, that, by hook or by crook, all outside
OF the select circle of Democrats in which the
conductors of that sheet move, would be
created out of the contracts. The prediction
has been verified but they, po r fellows are
not the only ones swindled by the thimbe-rig
operations of the sham Democratic leaders
the people have to share the loss with them.
Inc means Of restitution are at hand howev-
er; ami we shall be much disappointed in the
intelligence of the victims if they do not en-
| poy those means to the best of their ability.
