BERLIN, March 4.-The King in opening
Parliament said the first duty of the Conted-
Grafton was to maintain friendly relations.
The Paris Conference shows common de-
sire for peace. A nation saving its strength,
and respecting the independence of Others
and maintaining its own, can count on peace
as other powers will not modest it. The
enemies of order are powerless to trouble it.
From March 9th to sth repeated kilograms
were flashed over the wires in all directions,
to the effect that His Holiness Plus TX, was
dead but on the last mentioned date it was
stated, by a telegram from Rome that the
rumor had no foundation.

ner yesterday in honor of Grants inaugra-

MADRID, March I'm the Cortes yester-
day, there were stormy debates on the future
form of Government The Republicans de-
manded the removal OF Marshal MOntpen-
sier, and accused the Government of trying
to smuggle him into the country as King.
Gen Prim defended Montpensier. Topete
preferred MOntpensier US King to Repub-
lie; Serrano defended the course of the Gov
eminent The choosing of a ruler he said,
had been left to the Cortes, and this Repub-
lican pressure on the Chamber was wrong.
LONDON, March Late advices from ia
pan via Shanghai say that the Minister of
France in Japan had an audience of the Mix
ado Yedo, and Negato have been opened to
foreigners. Yedo will be the official resi-
dence of the MikadO, and the permanent
capital of the japanese Empire.
The European news is, generally speaking,
devoid of interest everything appearing to
be at about dead calm. In Spain, the war
fare had nearly ceased, and the country was
| quiet Not so with Cuba, however Wars
and rumors of wars were said to be going
on, and the insurgents were represented 10
have GO, 900 men in arms.

Their or more detailed report of the foreign

SUDDEN DEATH AT HAwAu-By recent
advices from Hilo via Kawaihae we learn
that Mr. George E. Tucker, who in conjunc-
ton with Mr.. Waller, was aaid to be in
terested in the Kaupakuea Plantation, or
Metcalf Plantation, had died rather suddenly,
haing been i'll only a few hours. The cause
of his death, as stated, was congestion Of
the lungs. Mr.. Tucker was native of Bev-
erly, Mass, but had grown to manhood in
Newburyport, in the same State. He ha d
resided on these islands during the past IS
years, and gained good reputation for pro-
bity and intelligence; thirteen of those
years were spent on the Metcalf Plantation,
in patient toll, which is now brought to an
end. He leaves widow, but no children.
ANOTHER SUDDEN DEATH.-Last evening,
about nine o'clock, Mr.. j. P Hughes, Sad
dler, residing at the corner of Fort and Hotel

IL the case of King VS. Alona, indicted for
being accessory before the fact, in the muir
der of one Kokai, by poisoning, at Koloa,
Kauai, in October 1S67,-the motion to
quash the indictment has been sustained by
the Court. Mary Kokai had been indicted,
andput on trial as principal, and the trial re-
suited in an acquittal by the jury. The court
holds that the common law doctrine, that
no one can be held to be accessory to an act
which no one is found to have committed, is
sound law in this country. There must be
principal found, before any one can be con-
victed of being an accessory. The decision
in this case, as delivered by Chief Justice
Allen, is to be found in another part of this
paper.
TANGLEMENTs.-Small minds grapple with
small things, no doubt because their small
capacities are best fitted for the pursuit of
small objects, in order, newspaporially, to
fill an otherwise vacant column. Our repor-
ter's last tangled" affair, SO glibly snapped
up by our friend over the way, was due to the
fact that the reporter aforesaid, with
the acumen and enterprise of his kind, was
early down town, on the morning of the
schooner Nary Elle1fs arrival, and heard the
Captain relating the story, the substance of
which appeared in the GAZETTE. The ain
nocent" reporter was not aware, it appears,
that the skipper was, (and still is) an inye-
terate joker, and was drawing his accus-
toned immensely long bow.

present arranged is a parade at six
O'Clock in the evening; exercises In the
Atheneum at 8 pm, to be followed by a
displayssof fireworks outside the whole to
conclude with a banquet at the st.
Charles Hotel. Jack Winter, writing to
w. T.. Augustus, president of the Me
chanics, says: "After the display Of
fireworks we will repair to the st. Char
les Hotel and partakc Of a banquet ex-
clusively for firemen of nay company and
those from Puducdh. The room Is too
small to have anybody else attend. 1t

The effect of the railroads In Southern
Illinois, built, In part, by county sub
scriptions, will be seen In the enhance.
ment OF the value of taxable property
five hundred per cent. in less than ten
years. The State taxes upon the increased
value above the assessment Of 1858, will
be set aside In the State treasury to pro-
vide fund to pay Off the railroad debts
Of the different counties. The amount
thus realized In ten years will wipe out
fully two.thirds of the entire debt. In
deed, when all the money thus realized
Is applied toward the payment OF the
bonds, the amount unpaid will not ex-
coed two or three millions Of dollars. AS
after the expiration often years, the State
will realize the taxes upon the increased
valuation of the property, II is but fair
that she should assume the payment of
the balance of the debt then due from
the several counties. BY that time South
ern Illinois will control the legislation of
the State, and her members In the Leg
islature we'll then see to 1t that relief so
manifestly due, shall be accorded to us.
Should the State assume the whole debt
a fair balance sheet would still show an
excess Of expenditure outside OF Egypt.
