the success of those vital principles which lie at
the foundation Of free government, Mexico found
him at the head of affairs in the beginning of the
greatest crisis-the most sanguinary and prolons-
cd trial which she has passed. lie proved equal
to the giant task before him. With a irmness
rarely cquallel, never surpassed; with a moral
courage mistaken by the storms of defeat and the
most terrible disaster an integrity which bright
ened under the darkest adversely a patriotism
whose guiding star was the liberty and independ-
ence of his country, he is one of those men,
which providence sometimes produces in an age
Tor the accomplishment of great results.
\ six years struggle with the great power of
the church, with traitors, with foreign arms, has
resulted in a glorious success victory of endur-
ing bravery and unfaltering perseverance, rarely
equalled. Juarez guided the Mexican nation in
her darkest hour, with mistaken confidence and
fidelity. lie might have assumed dictatorial
powers-clothed himself with the imperial pur-
ple--but after the great end was accomplished the
full contamination of all his wishes-the liberty
and independence of his country-he voluntarily
laid down his authority, and called upon the
Mexican people 10 exercise the prerogatiye of free
men. They acted with c~almness, and with extra
ordinary wisdom, chose him for their ruler, as the
one best calculated to reconstruct the government,
so much shattered by revolution and a war waged
against foreign usurpation for national existence
and integrity.
The brightest star of hope has risen over
Mexico. We may look to the future with bright
anticipations. The speck of threatened revolu-
ton will be cleared away from her skies; and
then, u stable government, n few decades of peace
and n proper direction of the industrial, energies
of the people will make Mexico a free, great and
prosperous nation. With a vastly diversified
country, washed by two great oceans; with every
variety OF soil and climate with every production
of every zone, her great natural resources need
but development to make her a worthy sister
republic of the United States.
The late ovation in New York to Minister Ro-
nero, before the election of Juarez was known,
exhibits the voice of public opinion in the United
States, and gives an earnest of that moral sym
pathy, which will aid Mexico in her social and
political organization.

We insert on our fourth page the full report Of the
somewhat singular proceedings of the san Francisco
Chamber Of Commerce On the Hawaiian Reciprocity
Treaty. That body appears, Judging from the report,
to be ut a loss what to do in the matter. The state
nient made by Mr.. King that the whipping post is
allowed here, will bear a full contradiction. The
laws forbid the infection of corporal punishment on
laboFers, and We are surprised that the Hawaiian
Consul at that port should allow such a statement to
lie male without a full denial of its truth.
The steamer IDAHO sailed on Tuesday afternoon at

All these sculptures have a fine finish. Before leav-

plans exhibited by famous architects among them
Bonnet has plans for the restoration of the theatre of
Pompeii, and of the triangular temple of the Forum

the City of Tiburtine-eight drawings and Henard

it would require many millions TO build this, but it
would confer great fame on the architect. In this
department there is exhibited large plaster cast plans
of the Imperial Tombs and Church at St. Denis.
From this gallery We Will enter the gallery or zone
devoted to
Liberal Arts.
Here We find first Il display of the products of the
printing office, a case containing samples of book
binding, and also of printing, u beautifully bound
and printed Bible, the first pages of a great Bible
that Bida is to illustrate, which, it is said will be a
marvel; here also are exhibited books educational
and religious, maps and samples from the Imperial
printing office. Further on We see an exhibition of
photographs, ongravings, and photographic impress
siOns, also specimens of photographic printing which
has made immense progress within n few months.
Although photography has not yet reached the point
of fixing natural colours, it has succeeded in making
colOured proofs, OF which specimens are exhlOlted-
\ very interesting exhibition, is the collection of
imitation of paintings by n large publishing house
which renders great service to art by placing within
reach of persons of moderate means reproduction of
the paintings of the great masters.
In the great collection of photographs and drawings
of all kinds, We find photograph machines and
precious stones decorative paintings, flowers and
stained papers, enamels, cameos ON shells, medals,
engravings on metal, ivory, tortoise shell and mother
of-pearl, objects in bronze, terra Gotta, and in plaster.
In this department we find articles of stationary,
account books with luxurious bindings, beautiful
albums in great abundance, stamped paper and
envelopes, maps and globes, inks, chalks and pencils,
fancy pasteboard boxes for presnts, and ingenious
apparatus for. copying letters without a press, and a
thousand little articles of stationery. The liberal
arts we find musical Instruments, among which the
piano holds n very conspicuous place. l would men,

DEcEMBEE I1TH.-This holiday was opened and
closed with the usual royal salutes, which fortunately
were given without accident. The races drew out a
large crowd, but probably not so many as would have
been present ON the 2Sth of November. There WAS
less than the usual amount of fast riding and drunk
enneSS, showing that the police can control the ma
tives, when the Bolabola seamen are away. We
heard of no serious accidents during the day, and
altogether it was kept moderately for a Honolulu
holiday. The report of the races. as furnished for
publication, viii be found elsewhere
A number of incidents occurred during the
races. a woman, who ventured too near the hur-
dies, was struck in the side, knocked over and in
jured, though not fatally.
On hosting the royal flag over the Kings stand,
the halyarlS gave way, and the flag fell. After an
unaccountably long delay, they were rugged up again,
and the dag was hoisted wrong side up. After awhile
it was sent up right. 1t was evident that no sailor
had charge of the ~halyards-
While the police were trying to keep back the
crowd, which approached the starting posts, one of
the officers of the palace guards, drew a trhip and
commenced using it with all his force on the crowd
indiscrimately, beating foreigners as well as natives
Two of the seamen of the Chanticiesr were struck

\ band of negro MINISTRIES from the Chanticleer
appeared during the performances, and excited no
little amusement with their songs and music, as they
went from tent to tent. They are evidently experts
in their art.

WISE PoLIoY AND How 1T RESULTS.
Nearly every friend of the Southern
Asylum has urged its managers to pub
lish an absolute, Interchangeable list of
prizes to be distributed on the 18th Of
June. Property daily becomes cheaper,
or, owners become more anxious TO sell,
and hence the city and suburban prop
erty, which will constitute the first
scheme, will cost ticket holders at least
twenty-five per cent. less that if an alb
solute, Interchangeable list had been pub
lished when the company began its ope-
rations. The cheapest and best property
held by the company will go at the head
Of the list, and will be first distributed as
prizes, and paid for. The value of
property, at its cash valuation, will be
precisely equal to the face value Of
tickets sold. This is certainly the fair
est gambling ever done. The company
takes no chances, and no member OF it
or manager can hold a ticket or win q
prize. The managers are sworn to see
that this rule is executed.
