| James Robinson & Co. have been nearly or quite
all graded, and could be built upon with but lit
tie delay. The other nine lots in the rear, be-
tween the Messrs. Robinson's and Fort street, are
on the site of the old Fort, the wall of which has
been used to fill in the water lots. Thus there
appears to be no impediment to the sale taking
place as advertised
Bnt we are inclined to believe that mature re-
Election on the part of Ministers will induce a
change of policy. to one more in accordance with
reason and suited to advance the true interests OF
the country. and that the published plan OF leas-
ing, together with that in regard to the "generai
plan Of buildings to be erected" will be abandoned
altogether that the sale will be postponed
for five or six months longer, or until the work
of filing in the other lots shall have been COM
pleted. A sale next Thursday on the original
plan, will in fact be but little short of a gift of
the use of the lots for twenty-five years on the
condition of putting up a certain sort of building
in accordance with ministers preconceived notions
of architecture. We see no reason to anticipate
any competition-provided even a single bidder
can be found, outside of government-on the
terms proposed. But we do not look for a sale,
but a postponement, more especially as the Legis-
lature are soon to meet, and the government, we
imagine, will be ill-prepared to answer to the
representatives for an unpopular and unthrifty
disposition of the first public improvement in the
oupfr-

To-Day week, May IL, 1858, for aught the
public know to the contrary, the grand sale of
government water lots on the New Esplanade,-
of which for the past seven months we have been
advertised . by authority"-will take place at
public auction. As our readers are probably
quite familiar with the unique terms of lease upon
which these lots are to be offered, we will not
here repeat them. At the time when the scheme
was first promulgated in October last, we ex-
pressed our views quite fully upon the absurd
nature OF the policy proposed, and time has only
the more confirmed our then expressed opinion.
The work Of filling in the lots has progressed
quite rapidly. considering the fact that convict
labor has been about the only kind employed.
The six lots . a line with the premises of Messrs.

better posted in the mysteries Of liquor vending than
we are. His remarks about bars in conspicuous
places, and crowds of seamen streaming in and out OF
them, wo will pass over, as those things only exist
In his startled inauguration. "1hose who suppose
that tho present law docs not greatly restrict intern
pcrancc.'' says D., :" are much mistaken" They
are not mistaken. Mr.. DeiaCen a more utterly
| futile and inefficient law for the suppression Of in
temperance does not exist under the sun it i a
dcad letter hero for NIL intents and purposes. except
bringing money into the government Golfers, and we
believe that those who framed il had that object
in view moro than they had the extension Of temper
ance and morality in the land.
In 1854 and '65, there were in Lahainn from twen-
ty-6vc to thirty victualling houses. in all of which
liquor was sold and last fall and this spring there
were no less than seventeen places in Lahaina where
liquor was sold, and that openly. the limit law Of
1866 to the contrary notwithstanding; yet D. has the
assurance to tell us in n public Journal. that we are
mistaken in supposing that the present law does not
restrict intemperance. Again ID. tells us that the
officers were unusually active in ferreting out infrac-
tior.s Of the law, and that some of the oldest and
worst offenders were broken up entirely. As to the
activity Of the officers, we must confess that we saw
no unusual display of it on their part. The only ac-
tivity we have ever known them to display, was in
nabbing inoffensive inebriates and small boys for fast
riding, ignoring cattle thieves and burglars. As for
old offenders being broken up. d. has drawn upon
his imagination for that fact. Scan a wholesale
liquor dealer be found who is not anxious for licenses
here?'' asks Mr.. ID. We say yes, there are, and for
this very cogent reason that the licensed retailer
who would have to pay a heavy amount for his
license, would most likely import his own liquors, or
buy them by the quantity in Honolulu, instead of
paying the wholesale dealer an advance on the price
here.
Now, sir, We say, give US retail liquor licenses for
Lahaina, and before the expiration of the present
year, we confidently assert that there will be better
liquor sold, less drunkenness and disorder in our
community than has hitherto characterized it. Men
of the ID. school may cant and preach against the
traffic in liquor until the crack & of doom-legislators
may enact the severest penalties against it, but they
cannot suppress it, nor diminish the consumption in
such a degree as to produce any perceptible good.
Of the truth of this the history of the Temperance
progress in Europe and America, for the last thirty
years, is a painful confirmation and until the Ito
plan dream of the perfection of the human race is
realized upon this earth, intoxicating beverages will
be manufactured, sold and drank to excess.

Mr.. EDITOR Though neither a Jonathan nor a
John, I could enjoy Mackay's poetical dialogue be-
tween the British sire and his American scion it
does ones heart good to see father and son open a
friendly hand one to another, instead of shutting it
into a menacing fist. 1t appears that after their
reconciliation, the Britisher and the Yankee we.H to

dividing the worlds CAKE between them two alone,
without regard to tbs appetite of some other ~gluttons
that are grindingsheir teeth at their noses. Mackay,
out of compliment to his h~ospitable Jonathan, attri-
butes to him the sensible part of the conversation be-
fore drink, and leaves the trash to poor John, after
drink, for it is the cautious and cooler John, as the
poet calls him, that says to Jonathan, together let us
rule the corld, take you the East, and 1 the West /;

Killer.
Not satisfied with having made of his old man a
fool big enough to be laughed at, on both continents,
our uncharitable songster deprives him SO far of his
senses, that he no more remembers whether he is
a male or a female, and forgets altogether where he
comes from ; for in his wanderings, he speaks of his
Angio-Saron name and fame-of his .Hnglo-Ssron
speech Great Britain is reduced to a myth, in
favor of the narrow slip ofthe Saxon's England; the
Saxon humble fame is converted into a total eclipse

whole occupation of throne and nobility have all been
drowned in Johns ebriety.
The anachronismical mania of Saxonizing Great
Britain and the United States is a disease that affects
many temperate brains among the writer's Of both
