attention to strangers As our own. Untiringly have
We regarded the rights Of nations who have made
treaties with us-and, more than this, Of those VINO
have not made such treaties. Equal privileges TO all,
and even more than this And why then are a GER
tain party talking 80 loudly in favor of annexation .
Have we indeed been 50 at fault in our dealings with
those Of other nations, Have we been feeding them
with poison?
A certain paper in this place expresses the opinion
that America does not care much for this country,
because we are 50 remote Indeed! Very true
perhaps that America, as a Government. does not
desire annexation, but her young sprigs are stirring
up the subject, and by their perpetual agitation Of
the matter, the attention Of the Government will be
turned this way with sinister intent. For the pro
gTeSs of all nations Is WESTWARD, especially at the
presnt time. In past centuries the powers OF the
East have migrated into Rome and all Europe-in
later time to the Continent of America and the
United States, with whom We now live ON friendly
terms. The Kingdoms of the East have grown to
full size, and diminished again 10 their present me-
dunn place on the scale. So the United States Is
now ascending TO its highest point Of power, 10 which
indeed il has arrived. The lesson Of the time l. that
the progress Of empire is westward And now the
lines of steamships are going to and fro between the
golden shores of California, and the shores OF the
. aOwery land" of Asia. And We see a result OF
this movement in that the Emperor of China has sent
an American Commissioner (Burlingame) 10 rear
range the treaties.
Thus the bands are loosed. that the western regions
may rise in prosperity. The day-dreams that some
have INDUCED in, they are endeavoring to realize by
turning hither their plans and their hopes,-to these
western islands. Thus turning 10 the west undoubt-
eily some are eudeayoring 10 obtain a foot-hold here
in this great ocean, and as we stand at the important
centre, so their glances are directed 10 US here Ii Is
certainly so, and it is a most bareflced denial, and
utterly unsuppOrted.-this assertion Of some that
there Is no plan of this sort
And if our Kingdom is thus annexed, thinkesr
thou, child Of keawe (Hawaii+, that you are to obtain
the blessings that others would make thee dream of
Thinkest thou, offspring of Kama (Maui), that thou
hast a sure foundation TO stand upon Are You
willing, q Kskuihewa, (Oahu), that your SACRED
SOVEREIGN shall become a laughing stock, and the
object Of impairment curiosity to the traveller from
who knows where? And thou land that takest away
the sun Cat night, kauai), lowest thou not thy
steep heights and deep shady Valleys We know full
wei, il is no peaceful cry that comes from the four
winds concerning the annexation of our country; and
we believe that for n man 10 be ashamed Of his father
land is the last thing he should be permitted to do,
ere he closes his life.

SAINT PATRICK's DAY.-Next Tuesday, March Il,
Is the anniversary of the Patron Saint of Ireland, of
whom n word or two may not lie out of place here.
The mystery usually attaching to saints, has not left
the maine and fame Of ST. Patrick unclouded by doubt
He was born towards the close of the 4th century, and
as yariously alleged, was q native of Scotland, Wales
and Brittany. One story has it, that he was origin
ally stolen from his home by fIlibusters, and carried
to Ireland, where he was employed literally in the
PASTORAL office, being engaged in the care of sheep.
After playing the part Of a " gentle shepherd" for six
years, the young saint returned home, where he was
moved by contemplation Of the spiritual wants Of the
Christianity. He established churches and schools,
ordained priests, and by virtue Of his high mission,
created bishops. The chief miracle performed by ST.
Patrick was the expulsion of all manner Of reptiles,
snakes, &c, from the happy island in which he offi-
ciated. This veritable miracle is firmly believed, and
is embodied in the chronicles and ballads of Ireland.
One of these ballads also afirms, what no one per-
haps will deny to the tender memories of the day,
that
ST. Patrick was a gentleman,
And lived with decent people
In Dublin town he built 4 church,
And on 4 put a steeple-"
He died, it is alleged, about the year 1913, at q
very advanced age. -

San Francisco papers than those received through the

TO WHOM NAY CONCERN.

The Franchise law Of the State re-
quires that the Commissioner shall
keep his office at the county seat of
the county, and shall attend for one
day at each quarterly session of the
County Court, for the purpose of
issuing certificates ofregistration to
such persons as may be entitled to
them and provides further, that
for a wilful refusal so to do, he is
guilty of a misdemeanor, and upon
conviction is to be removed from
Office and subjected to a fine oftifty
dollars.
This is 10 notify all parties desir-
ing certificates that it is their duty
to present themselves before the
Commissioner on Monday, January
4th, with the proofs required by the
act; and further to notify the Com
missioners in each county that it is
their duty to be present in open
office during that day; and still fur
ther TO notify the Attorney Gener-
ais of the various districts that It'll

they were contraeted. In other |
words, that law shall bepassed be-
fore Congress shall order resump-
ton Of specie payments, which will
enable every debtor to repudiate
thirty TO fifty-fve cents on the dollar
of all he owes. The West is heavily
indebted to the East and the Ga
1ette knows that a resumption OF
specie payments within a short pc
Rod would bring with it to thou
sands of enterprising western men
hopeless bankruptcy, hence its spe-
cious plea for a law that will enable
them to repudiate a considerable
portion of their indebtedness, or pay
the same in deprecated currency,
This, it argues, should be done, be
cause it would be equity. But 1T
refuses to carry ont its doctrine
when applied to the bondholder,
although Senators Sherman and
Morton and Gen. Butler and the
| late, Thad. Stevens declare that the
government las a right to pay bis
debt in the same currency with
which he purchased the bonds. p

The suit involving the liability of
the State of Tennessee for the notes
of the Bank of Tennessee now in
adjudication before the Supreme
Court of the United States, is No.
100 on the docket of the Court, and
is expected to be heard in argu-
ment in the third week in January.
The State authorities have en-
ployed counsel to argue the case,
and the note holders will be repre-
scented by several distinguished
lawyers, among them the Hon.
Benz. R. Curtis, of Boston, Ex-Jus-
tice of the Supreme Court Of the
United States.

IsH REPUDIATION !?

The question Of the resumption
Of specie payments is beginning to
brighten the Radicals of the West,
at least we judge so from the found
ering of the Cincinnati Gazette, one
among the ablest organs Of that
wing of the Republican party. The
East is not in debt, but is the credl-
tor of the other sections of the
country, and besides holds millions
ofbonds which may be redeemed IN
greenbacks, and hence demands a
resumption of specie payments.
The West is i'm debt and holds com
paratively small amount Of bonds,
and the Gazette is appalled, ut the
consequences ola resumption. This
organ of radicalism is therefore Op-
posed TO an immediate resumption.
The ground assumed by the Gazette
is thus briefly stated: The people
are in debt. The great indebted
ness Of the country was contracted
since the law made greenbacks a
legal tender, and when the legal
tender currency was so deprecated
as to be worth but sixty to
seventy cents on the dollar
in coin. To force specie pay
mems would be to increase each
mans indebtedness from thirty to
forty cents on the dollar, and hence
the objection of the Gazette, that
unless 4 law is passed that all debts
can be paid in coin, at the selling
rate of gold at the time the debt was
contracted the resumption Of specie
payments would bankrupt the PEG
pie. As for instance-the IN
stance" is ours, not the Gazette $
the man who contracted a debt OF
$1,000 on the 18th of July, 1864,
PAYABLE in five years-gold then
selling at 80 cents on the dollar IN
yreenbacks-can liquidatc tins
$1,000 debt on the day it becomes
due. with 1886 so in gold If this

Hon. E. G. SPAULDING, of Buffalo,

thirty sixth and thirty seventh Con-
gress, and the author of the legal
tender act, in a letter to Secretary
McCulloch, dated the 9th inst, de-
clares his belief that, as a peace
measure, it is unconstitutional He
says he introduced and advocated
the bill as a war measure, a measure
Of temporary relief to the treas
ury;" that "it was necessary and
proper to successfully carry on the
war, but he is "clear that as a peace
measure it is unconstitutional"
