THE SANDWICH ISLANDS.

The Reciprocity Treaty Between the
United states and the Hawaiian Gov
ernment Approved by the King In Cabi-
met Comedian Envoy to Japan
Cruise of the LackRwannas
SAN FRANCISCO, August 29.-Honolulu dates
are TO the 22d inst. The reciprocity treaty be-
tween the Hawaiian Government and the
United States has been approved by the King In
Cabinet Council, and the Legislative Assembly
has been called together to ratify 1t and alter
the laws so far as necessary, and the text of the
new treaty will be published in a few days.
The text of the treaty is understood to be that
Hawaiian sugars of not higher grade than No.
-, Dutch standard, rice, cotton, fruits and
some other export products are to be admitted
free of duty, and that some of the principal
products and manufactures of the United States
are to be duty free at the Hawaiian ports.
The Hawaiian Government Is about sending
an Envoy Extraordinary to Jeddo to negotiate
a commercial treaty with Japan. Daniel e..
Waterman is named as Envoy.
Dr. +. Hutchinson, Hawaiian Minister OF the
Interior, has been seriously injured by mad
OK. His condition is precarious.
The United States steamer LackaWanna had
sailed from Honolulu a cruise Her desti-
nation is not known, but 1t is supposed to be
TO locate and survey islands in the North Pa
eific, and to take possession In the name OF the
United States.

QuInIne.

1t is a good thing, says an English paper, that
India seems likely TO be able to supply the whole
world with qulnine, for not only was the Ameri-
can supply uncertain, it was actually threatened
with extinction, owing to the reckless way in
which the Indians killed the trees in the process
OF stripping planting, of course, no new ones.
MIR. M1vor, who has been ably sec0nding Mr..
Clement r. Markham'5 effort at chinchona
planting finds that by removing only one long
strip OF bark and Immediately covering the
wound with moss, tho bark is renewed, provided
the cambium be not injured. The new bark,
moreover, is thicker aud richer in alzalOids than
the original one. Indeed Mr.. Broughton, the
newly'app "quinologist" at 0otacamund,
tells us that the average yield of cultivated
plants is nearly two per cent. higher than that
OF the wild American samples-7 per cent, in
stead of from 4'l6 to see ger cent. The only
drawback is that the kind which grows most
freely in India is the red bark, the quinine from
which ls usually mixed with considerable
portion of chinchonidine and other allied aka
lolds, along with resin aud coloring matter not
easily separable. Still, however since we shall
use probably more and more quinine every year,
1t is better to have the mixture than none at all.
hr. Broughton suggests that these "amorphous
alkaloid substances" may have virtues of their
own; but possibly, with more perfect processes,
they may be found separable. Anyhow, it is
peter TO take what India can give us for dis
pensary use, than to prepare las they do in some
dlspensaries) their miSturd getjniR out Of con-
centrated infusion of quassia and calumba, with
a dash OF aromatic sulphuric acid.

Marriages OF Professionals and Roman
Catholics

By recent orders from Rome mixed marriages
between Protestants and Roman Catholics can
only be celebrated by the Roman Catholic clergy
ia England, on condition that no celebration of
the marriage ceremony according to the rites of
the Protestant Church shall subsequently take
place. 1t appears, however, that Prince Con-
zaga, a Roman Catholic, after having been mar.
ried the other day at st. James, Spanish Place.
by Roman Catholic priest, went through the
marriage ceremony at a Protestant church.
The priest who married him, hearing of this,
addressed the following letter to the Westmin-
ster GGzehe:-
st. JAMES, SPANISH PLACE, W., August l,
l667-Sir:-My attention has been called to a
statement in the Westminster Gazette that the
Prince Gonzaga, after having been married at
st. James,, Spanish Place, went through the
marriage ceremony at a neighboring Protestant
church. viii you allow me to inform your
readers that the knowledge of his Intention of
thus acting had been entirely withheld from
me, otherwise would not have assisted at his
marriage?
~ am, sir, truly yours in Christ,

Descent Of an Ens.nnous Meteor in Lake

Descent OF an Enormous Meteor tm Lake
Ontarios
Captain Turner of the schooner ABqerine who
arrived at Hamilton on Friday morning (93d),
reports having witnessed, about IL O'Clock on
Wednesday night, q splendid phenomenon in
the descent of an immense meteor into Lake
Ontario, which struck the water not more than
three hundred yards from his vessel. TIE cap
tain was standing on the main hatch. The yes
house, bearing s. S,W. Attention was attracted
by q sudden illumination from the northwest,
which almost instantly increased TO a dazzling
brilllancy. On turning he beheld large body
OF FIRE in the heavens, which seemed to be ap.
and rowing rapidly large as it came nearer
the observation OF time being go brief as hardly
TO admit of computation in seconds.
The momentaTy impression of Captain Turner
was that certain destruction awaited his vessel,
as the terrific missile seemed to be directed to
strike the vessel broadside. The time for IeHec-
ton, however, was brief and the light emitted
was so Dlindng in it's effect that the man at the
wheel and another of the crew on deck fell pros
trate, aud remained stupefed with terror.
The captain himself, as he states, remained
tTanshXed, and saw the 6eIy BODY enter the
water some three hundred yards ahead OF his
vessel, about two points TO the windward.
loud explosion attended the contact with the
water which was sharp and deafenng, equal to
thunderbolt close at hand, and large volume
OF steam and spray asCended into the air, which
was noticed for some moments afterWard. The
captain estimates that the meteor was a body of
about twenty feet in diameter. A long trail of
flame Of the most intense brillancy was noticed
as II struck the water.

If we turn to the East, and look at the charac-

we find that it is based on communism, intense
hatred Of British connection, and open prefer

In other words. to borrow a term from an even

Dominion and British connection on one side;
Mr.. Devlin such views as those set forth by
Mr.. David on the other. And every newspaper

support the other, whatever hypocritlcal pro

RepudtatiOu

The Round Tables leader this week deals with
Mr.. Pendleton's recent exposition of modern
Democracy after this manner:-
''Mr Pendleton, who was a candidate for Vice
President at the last election, and who was n
heavy load for his ticket to carry, is striving to
rise into new distinction by means which we
trust will sink him out of sight. He is preach
ing in the West reputation of the national
debt; not an oDen, simple refusal TO pay the
debt but a mean evasion OF It's obligations
would hold fast to outward respectability."

ment Of the present scholastic year, and
that the organization of the school sys.
tenn, so far as regards superintendents,
principals and teachers, be continued
