Mr.. Widemann reported the opinion of the Chief
Justice, that the salaries of the Judges of the Circuit
Courts should have that permanence which a special
| provision of the statute would give; and IT altered,
it should be by a law to that purpose.
The following bills were read the second time and
ordered for Committee of the Whole Mr.. Dowsett's
bill providing for the establishment of an Insane
Asylum Mr.. Hitchcock's bill granting privileges to
the Honolulu Sugar Manufacturing and Refining
Company; and MIR. Rhodes bill amending the School
Law.
Mr.. Hitchcock introduced a resolution for a Com
mittee to inquire in reference to Rev. L. Andrews
Dictionary of the Hawaiian Language. Passed.
Mr.. Kaakua read the first time, a bill reducing
the salaries of the Chief Justices and Circuit Judges.
Mr.. Rhodes moved that the bill be indefinitely post
poned on the ground that it contained a provision
unconstitutional. Mr.. Rhodes Withdrawing his mo-
ton, the bill was referred to q Select Committee.
The House went into Committee on the Appropri
alton Bill. There was considerable discussion on the
item of $4,000, for expenses of Foreign Missions.
Mr.. Baldwin moved to strike it out, on the ground
that in the Report of the Minister of Finance, this
item appeared among the Expenditures of the Ha-
waiian Treasury during the past Biennial period,
end if it had been once appropriated and paid. it
was absurd 10 Inappropriate it. Messrs. Webster
and Widemann assured the House that this arpro-
priation had not been paid, although from the
Report of the Minister there appeared to be some
discrepancy in the matter. Mr.. Widemann read q
letter from the Minister explaining it, and Mr.. Bald
win Withdrawing his motion, the item passed.

Mr.. Hitchcock read the first time a bill reduc-
ing the pay of school treasurers to q per cent.
Ordered for Committee of the Whole.
Mr.. Rhodes, for a part of the Committee on
Education, read the first time a bill amending the
law respecting common schools, providing, among
o. her alterations, for the transfer of the school,
tax to the public treasury, and for the separation
of the sexes in the common schools. Ordered to
be translated and printed.
Mr.. Kaauwai read the first a bill providing for
the adjustment of the Office OF school treasurer,
and for the transfer of the school money to the
public treasury. Rejected by a vote of II to 10.
The House went into committee on the appro-
priation bill. The pay of tax-assessors was re-
considered, and raised to four per cent. Mr..
Dowsett wished to insert the amount of the ex-
chequer bills outstanding. Mr.. Wideman quoted
the opinion of the Chief Justice, that this was
unnecessary. as the exchequer bills were provided
for by special statute and Mr.. Webster thought
1t unwise to swell unnecessarily the amount of
the appropriation bill. Mr.. Dcwsett thought we
might, with as much propriety, omit the appro-
~priations for the Chief Justices, as these also were
provided for by the statutes. The subject was
waived for further information.
On the War Department, Mr.. Kahookano
moved to appropriate S3S 900, as recommended
by she Committee. Mr.. Kaapa moved $500
Mr.. Hitchcock wished the amount for the army
and its officers parceled out, so that the country
might know where this money went to. MIR.
Baldwin suggested the provision, that the money
be paid for this department in case of actual war,
otherwise it go for the benefit of hospitals and
agricultural interests. Mr.. Kaakua thought 1T a
wise policy, in time of peace, to prepare for war;
By motion of Mr.. Knudsen, the item was deferred
for information on the amount of the 6ebt of the
department.
On the items for Lahainalura Seminary, Mr..
KAPPA moved to reduce the salary of the Presi-
dent of the Institution to $4,000. Motion sup
ported by Messrs. Kaakua, Kamalo, Kaauwai,

Hitchcock, Baldwin, Moku, Kahookano and Ka-
nananui. After a long debate, it passed as
recommended by the Finance Committee. On

fell yesterday to ls but rallied afterward, closing
at IL bid The supply from holders who are tired
of losing interest exceeds the speculative demand
AT the same time, we are rather inclined al
present to look for an upward turn in the precious
metal. 1t is now apparent to every one that gold
will not rule at the excessive premium which was
expected by sanguine spectators when the legal
tender bill was first projected. But it is not likely
that, so long as paper is legal tender, and the
final Issue of the war remains undecided, 1t will
cease to bear some premium, or disappear from
the list of speculative fancies AT the present pre-

The New York herald., 1862-03-10

The stock market was dull, but steady, all last
week, until Friday evening, when a fresh demand
for stocks sprang ur. 1t is generally said that The
new government regulation regarding the publica-
ton of army news has operated to check business
on the Stock Exchange, end this no doubt has been
the case to some extent But such influences can
be but temporary. The speculative tendency is
as strong as ever, and there are many influences at
work which are calculated to encourage purchases
of stocks. The general belief in the speedy sue
cess of the Union armies the large and increasing
traffic on the Western railways, and the expansion
of credit which everybody expects to follow the
emission of large amounts Of government paper in
various FORMS are calculated to exercise a
powerful influence upon that large class of the
community which is accustomed to indulge in the
excitement OF stock speculation. In the prevail
ing stagnation of general business and industrial
enterprise, the Stock Exchange is the only mart
where capitalists can adventure Their means with
a chance of making something more than mere lie
gal interest on their money. We discern the ten
dency Of capital in the steady appreciation of
all first class bonds and state and federal securi
ties. Within q few weeks United States bonds
have risen eight per cent, some Of the State bonds
fifteen, and oil the first class railway mortgages
| with the exception OF the sinking funds OF the
| Michigan Southern road, whose improved condi.
tion is not yet generally understood-have ad
yanced to par or premium. In the course of a
few days the stream Of capital which has been
flowing into this channel will be still further
swelled by disbursements Of neary if not quite one
hundred millions Of dollars by the United States
government. Simultaneously, it is supposed by
foreign houses that the supply Of stocks and bonds
from Europe, under which our market has stag
eered for some months past, viii be checked. and
that European capitalists will again begin to invest
money on this side. The demand thus expected
for safe and profitable inve tments can only be
supplied on the Stock Exchange and, with the ex-
ception Of the bonds oi the government, there is
| nothing on the Board list to compete with the
stocks Of railways which are believed to be sound
ly managed and 10 be earning a fair income.
