On Monday last. in the Supreme Court, one
Otho Hendricks. Il German, was tried and con-
yicted of the crime of rape on Il little native girl,
apparently under twelve years of age. The evil

of the jury. quite corroboratiye of the statement
Of the child. a. they We're out only fifteen min

1t i well known that there i a class of white
men in this country-they DO not deserve to he
called men-whose natures are 80 debased and
whose minds are so demOralized that they have
fallen beneath the veriest savage or even the brute
creatures. They not only make it their practice
to enticc away and outrage children, but they
have the shamele>sness, some of them, to boast Of
their exploits. Let them beware, by the result
of this trial. of the fate that awaits them if de-
tected. 1t is said by those who are likely TO
know. that there are some in this community Of
Honolulu who are Just a guilty and deserve quite

~ The lesson contained in the sketch of the
career of a New York capitalist, which is printed
on the outside of to-day's paper, is a valuable
one, and should be read and carefully weighed
by all who hope for success in business, either in
mercantile or other pursuits. The man whose
story is there related, and whose wealth, from the
most modest beginning has now reached TO colos-
sal proportions, tells frankly in one expressive
word,-which he emphasizes by pronouncing it
three timcs-that the grand secret of his success
in life has been the practice in all his business
transactions and his dealings with his fellow men,
of Truth, truth, truth. y sermon is contained
in those words, which it would he well for those
just starting out in life to deeply reflect upon.
With ordinary tact, diligence and prudence, no
pursuit is more likely to result in success than
that of Il merchant, and it must be confessed that
in no other are the temptations and the oppor-
tunities for departures from the strict line of
Truth, more frequent.
1t used to be a proverb, and is still an accepted
doctrine with many, that an honest lawyer was IA
rara aris-a rare bird. The thought is a very
natural though erroneous one, resulting from the
fact that from the very constitution of courts of
justice and the nature of the profession, a lawyer
is frequently called upon to try his best to prove
that black IL white, and to gain the cause of a
client, while in his own mind he knows that he
ought to lose. This is one of the necessities of
the profession, which can easily be understood.
But in the case of Il merchant or Il store-kccper,
there can be but one safe course-one only course
which will lead to honor and protperity-a strict
adherence to truth and the avoidance of all mis-
representation. We may be told that there are
tricks in all trades, and that there is no harm in
taking an advantage i'll Il bargain where you can
get it, and making money A. YOU can but after
all, is not that rather questionable morality,
when we come to look at it closely? What is
the great difference in point of honesty, between
the man who sells an article which he knows
is not what he represents it to be nor worth the
price paid for it, and the rogue who abstracts Il
purse or pocket handkerchief? In either case
something is lost, and somebody else apprupriates
what is lost, bat while the one peri rms the OIer-
alton by skillfui slcight of hand, the other accom-
plishcs his equally culIable purpose Of fleeing
by Misrepresentation, smooth words and Il smil-
that the dealers in sandcd sugar, wooden hams,
and other bogus articles, never have prospered in
the long run. The ~il-gotten wealth of the
=. shoddy dealers of New York, who defrauded
the poor soldiers during the war, Will not stick to
them. In mercantile life most emphatically Is
the old proyCrb illustrated that - Honesty is the
best policy"

BURGLARY AGAIN.-The thieves with which our
city appears to be infested are getting holder and
more frequent in their depredations. Last Sunday
night, Mr.. J. II. Wood, Of the Nuuanu Plantation,
/ st some rice and provisions by thieves, undoubted-
ly coolies, and on Monday night his dwelling house
was entered while the family were asleep, and about
500 worth of property stolen These thieves and
burglars are no doubt some of the vagrant Chinese
coolies, who are a curse to the country

PRoGREss.-We saw the other day a young man,
a clerk in a store, with a marking brush, making
some queer, hieroglyphic looking characters on a case
of goods, which on inquiry, We found were Chinese
letters and signifed the address of a Chinese mer-
chant on one of the other islands. 1t certainly goes
to show progress when an English boy who has
never seen the " Flowery Kingdom is SO far en-
lightened as to he able to write i'll Chinese.

himself particularly TO retouching pictures and the
