sorbed 4,55GOOO men. The number raised by con-
scription for Napoeon's army was 2,47G,0O0 men.

quarter raised in 1913, only 100000 remained alive

zens had to pay 700 millions of francs as indemnity

AN UNNATURAL MoruER-1na Philadelphia paper

AN UNNATURAL MOTHER.-Ina Philadelphia paper
we find the following
A warrant was issued yesterday for the arrest of
Mrs McCarty, who is charged with the shocking
neglect of her offspring. The Lieutenant went to
the house for the purpose of arrestng her when he
iound the premises in filthy condition, and the only
occupant infant about Ii months DID, in an almost
insensble condition. 1t appears the child has been
unwell for some time past and when the officer
went to its assistance he was mortified to find that it
had lain in one position for long time, that its
left side was thoroughly decayed.

worded section. Our astute lawmakers are
very much like the old farmer who drove
his cattle out of his c~ornfeld, and then
forgot to put up the bars. They intended
to pass q law forbidding captains or individ-
ais from carrying letters from port to port.
But as the section now reads, it is little else than
a farce, inasmuch as there as no penalty at
tached to The prohibition against carrying letters
outside of the mails. Those whose consciences
are weak enough to believe it is "unlawful to
carry letters from port to port" SIMPLY because
the Code says it is, will of course abide by 1t.
In order that our readers may judge for them
selves, and observe the beauties of Hawaiian
Legislation, we copy the section entire:
SECTION 4O7. No inter-island letters shall be
transmitted by mail unless previously stamped, ana
it shall be unlawful for coasting vessels, steamers, or
individuals, to convey unstampe letters from port to
port, except letters directed to, and intended for,
owners or consignees PROVIDED, however tnat III case
of absence or deficiency of stamps, the POSTMASTER at
the place Of mailing, receives an equivalent In money,
in which case it shall be his duty to mark such letters
paid, they shall be transmitted by regular course of
mail; and provided also, that the provisions OF this
and the preceding section shall not apply to the cor
respondence of their M~ajesties, the King and Queen,
His Majesty's Ministers. or to any official correspond
ence whatever, provided the same be designated by
proper superscription.
Under section 4U0 (wnlcn was eVluenty Irameu
to apply only to vessels leaving for foreign ports,)
captains of coasting vessels can be prevented from
taking mailable matter outside of the mails, un-
less stamped, but its provisions do not restrain
individuals from carrying all the letters and
papers they choose to. We are informed by the
Postmaster that section 407, as prepared for the
Legislature contained a penalty clause, but from
some unaccountable reason, it has been omitted
from the draft of the law signed by the King.
Sec. 40S requires the General to
issue such stamps as the public convenience re-
auires, which under this law are one, t,ro, and
fire cents stamps. 1t also provides against forg-
ing. counterfeiting or obliterating stamps for the
purpose of using them a second time. Penalty
not exceeding $500.
Sec. 400 provides that all Z" dead letters" can
be opened after remaining in the Office one year.
Secs. 40 to AS provide for regulating the inter-
nal duties of the post-ofice department, section
Ala exempting post-ofice employees from jury
duty, and AIS re-enacting the penalty in the
Penal Code relating to violation of mail bags.

VALUABLE SYSTEMATICALLY experiment was tried
on board the leaking bark Oresfes, q few days ago,
which may often prove of great service in cases of
vessels s~pringing aleak at sea. To discover the local.
ity of a leak in a ship, take a sound cask, bung it up
tightly and bore a gimlet-hole in the head. When
the cask is placed directly over the leak, it will emit
q distinct ringing noise. caused by the water rushing
through the leak in the vessel The cask will only
emit this sound when placed directly opsr the leak.
The sound is evidently conveyed BY the timbers to
the cask, and in some way becomes augmented in
passing through the hollow cask- This phenomenon
Is as singular as it il sure. The experiment Was
witnessed by Capt Petersonso f the Phansos. aud y
several others. Capt Mason. Of the Oretes, 6rst

TAXES AND HoRsEFLEsH.-From various quarters
we hear that the natives are getting frightened at
the new horse tax and disposing of their horses by
killing and eating them. 1t is said that they prefer
the flesh of horses to that of beef. This custom pre-
walls in some half civilized countries, and though
eating horseiesh sounds awfully wicked to refined
tastes, yet really it is better and more wholesome
food than pork. Still, we have no wish to see the
custom prevail here, though our native horses are
becoming a scourge and a nuisance.

10 O'Clock, and proceeded to Kewalo, where His Maj

corps and reviewed them. The evolutions were all
performed with that precision for which the Rifles
are noted. At l o'clock, the company with invited
guests, sat down to a most liberal and really refresh

disturbance occurred near the close of the entertain
