A Clsroyman's strike.

A novel suggestion is made by curate
in letter to a contemporary. He wishes
his brethren to organize a strike. After
an education which costs his friends
about $4,000, he is licensed, while dea-
cor, to curacy of ESQ Perhaps, as a
priest, be gets for the next ten years
El2O. At the end of that time he may
be fortunate enough to obtain ESQ and
a house. He is comforted with the re-
Election that he has position the
more needs, he thinks, that he should
have the money to keep up that position.
He suggests that where living is over
f400 a year, the curate, who does the
whole work, should heve half the income.
Then be would be able TO relieve the poor
and needy, and show hospitality. His
suggestio1s are not likely to meet with
any practical result An incumbent with
a living of sl000 year, pays curate
flOO to share the work. His justification
is that be can get plenty of capable men
10 do il for that. Thus the law of supply
and demand inirudes it's vulgar presence
into the Church. We have the undig-
nifed spectacle of.the poor curate apply
ing to the rich benefited clergyman ;
"Put me. pray thee, into one of the
priests Offices, that may eat piece Of
bread" The shabby curste is the con-
tempt Of his well-to-do practitioners,
until he summon up courage TO WOO an
heiress aud marry her, or is lucky enough
TO obtain good living. and engage Gu
rate 10 his turn. This is the result OF the
+" World in the Church. "-Ehglish pa

This apparently unfavorable result may be re-
ferrei 10 commercial vicissitudes In the latter part
of 1866. whose effect was sensibly felt in the ear
IN part of 1867. but from which the business of
the country is now recovering. Nor should tie
great change in the sugar manufacture be over
looked. the immediate consequence OF which mas
been TO furnish for the California market an arti-
Gle of less value, but produced at less cost BY
this change. the sugar manufacture has been
made remuneratiye, and greater production Will
he stimulated. The Reciprocity Treaty, IT ratl-
fed, will exert a similar good influence, and little
apprehension need be felt that the balance of
trade will continue upon the wrong side but
the Legislature may well consider how far reason
able encouragement may be given TO such branch
es of domestic industry as viii direct the energies
of our native population to profitable pursuits.
One thing, however, should be borne IN mind IN
ANALYSING all statistical information relative TO the
trade os these Islands. Their position is pecu-
liar. They may be said to exist not only for
themselves, but for the promotion and assistance
of the free and unobstructed traffic and commerce
of the whole world. They are visited by many
vessels, bearing every flag. and whose crews and
agents expend large amounts. Of such expendl-
lures no accurate estimate can be formed, although
the attempt is regularly made to return the value
of . domestic goods furnished as supplies But
it is matter of common knowledge that the amount
thus estimated is largely exceeded. Many thou
sands of dollars are spent in Honolulu every year
by transient visitors, or on account of foreign
ships. This circumstance explains the ccnmula
ton of specie which is constantly going ON.
During the past year some great apparent sac
rifces of property have been necessary in the Ii
quotation of great estates, which have now passed
into stronger hands. But no well-disposed per-
SONS will draw from such forced sales an unfayora-
BILE opinion of the resources of the country or the
stability of property. On the contrary, none can
doubt that a period of prosperity and healthy de-
velopment has now commenced, and that this
Kingdom. respected everywhere, will vindieate
it's established right to independent rank among
the nations of the world.

Proposition for 1868.
The Lancaster Gazette at Re-
duced Rates.

For the purpose of placing the
Gazette in the hands Of every vo.
ter in Fairfield county and the ad
joining territory during the impor.
tant political campaign of 1868,
We are induced to mako tho sub
joined propositions, in carrying
out which we hope to have the ac-
tive aid and influence of every
present subscriber and all good
Republicans.
If any present subscriber not
in arrears will furnish US the name
Of new one, tho paper will DC
sent ono year to both for So 90
cash. This will apply to all who
have made advance payments Of
$780, who will only have to pay
US 81 90 for the additional name.
Clubs of Ten and upwards, atany
one Post office, of new names, will
receive tho Gazette one year fol
81 SO each, cash to be sent with the
names.
Subscribers in arrears for enc
year or moro, paying up arrear.
ages in full with ono year in ad.
vance, can 60 in at clsb rates.
These propositions will be KEPT
open till the lst Of April next
They are not made to make money
but to aid in promoting the sue,
cess Of the great Union Republican
cause. We are firmly persuaded
that tho very best documents fol
circulation for this purpose are the
local newspapers. Can township
committees or leading Republicans
in every township, do better thing
than to take hold at once, anG
mako sure that the Gazette is
placed in the hands of every Re,
publican and doubtful voter within
their respective limits?
