ment superintend the shipping of laborers.

Mr.. Kuapuu introduced q resolution requesting
tile Minister of the Interior to state to the Assembly
why a salute is not fired from Punchbowl, and the
Government Offices not closed ON the 31st of July.
Mr.. Hutchison minister of the Interior) said the
reason the 31st of July was not kept as a holiday
was because His Majesty and himself concluded not
to keep it. But in regard to the saluting part he
had nothing to do with that, and it came under the
Office Of the Minister of Foreign Relations and Gov
ernor of Oahu.
Mr.. Hutchinson minister Of the Interior) gave no
tice of a bill to amend Section 81 Of the Civil Code,

Committee of the Whole.
Mr.. Hitchcock moved the passage of the resolution.
Mr.. smith minister of Finance) spoke against the
resolution, asit was u very grave matter to alter the
Constitution, and in his opinion it was a waste of
time, as the Constitution was well enough as it was.
Nh. Kaukaha favored the resolution.
Mr.. Kaiue thought it was an important Treasure.
and his reason for bringing forward the resolution
was to make the Article in the Constitution less con-
Trajectory. lg
Mr.. Lyons thought the resolution q most important
one, and in no sense { q waste of time, or sschild,s
play" IS it allowed the people to have more say as
to who should represent them. He had no doubt that
the resolution would be opposed by the other side.

MIR. Hitchcock moved tie amend by inserting $12,-
362, the amount called for by the petition from the
Fire Department.
Mr.. Harris minister of Foreign Afairs) was OPP
posed to the amendment, as he did not see what
claim the Department had upon the Assembly for
s., 800, to assist in building the bell tower, as it was
to be put up with the subscriptions of the citizens of
Honolulu.
Mr.. Boyd explained that the bell tower 4 Is built
to accommodate the new bell, for which The last
Legislature appropriated $500, and that the Depart
ment had already collected $500, towards building
the tower, from the public. He thought the Fire
Department ought to be sustained in this expenditure
for a bell tower, as it was a necessity, and the House
well knew that the members of the Department re-
ceived no compensation for their services, and which
comprised the bone and sinew of the country.
Mr.. Harris supported his former remarks, with all
due respect to the Department, but thought if the
House went on appropriating such large sums. they
ought to leave the disbursing of them with those
who were responsible for them to the Assembly.
Mr.. Lunalilo favored an appropriation of $4,000,
as the Fire Department was of great use to the COM
munity. His Highness went on giving his opinions
ON the military, which called for an appropriation of
$75, 600, which in his opinion was n waste of money.
Mr.. Hutchinson (NIinister of the Interior) said that
the last speakers remarks were away from the ques-
ton, as he seemed very much put out about the
military. We did not expect to go to war with
foreign countries, but we wanted an armed force to
keep down any instruction in our midst, and that
was what the appropriation was wanted for. He did
not believe in the Fire Department putting up the
bell tower, until they knew where the money was
coming from. He was in sympathy with the Fire
Department, and would not oppose the item asked
for, but wished the Department to understand that
in future they must make their expenditure within
the appropriation granted by the Legislature and
if it is not done in the future, he should oppose all
demands for more money. But this time he would
vote for the item asked for in the petition.
Mr. Komoikeehuehu was in favor of the item pass
ing at $12.362, as it was important that the Depart
ment should have it. The Ministers need not talk OF
wasting money. The Government printing Office
a waste of money in his opinion. Item passed

To PROMOTE THE SPRouTING OF SEEDS
According to the English Repertory
of Patent Inyentions, Oxalic acid pro-
notes the sprou,ing of seeds, SO that
seeds 80 10 40 years old will terminate
by its application. The method is to
soak the seeds for one or two days in a
solution of oxalic acid till they commence
to sprout, when they are taken out and
planted in the ground. Another means
was found by the Count Won Sternberg,
who exhibited in 1884, before the meet
ing Of German sdraEts in Stuttgart, per-
feet grown ears of wheat raised from
seeds taken from Egyptian tombs, and
therefore at least 2, 500 years old. All
attempts to make them sprout failed till
be placed them in fatty oils before bury
ing them in the earth. They sprouted
very slowly, it is true; bnt finally pro
duced ears perfectly identical with the
Talavero wheat. Coffee beans, in which,
as is we'll known, it is very difficult to
cause termination, may be made to
spront 10 twelve hours, if placed in q
tumbler with water to which an equal
part of spirits of ammonia has been ad-
ded, the glass being covered With piece
of wood, and exposed to moderate heat.
In IL hours the roots are seen to project
to a distance Of several lines, and even
the commencement OF leaf formation may
be seen by careful observation.

he did not stop. 1t was subsequently
discovered that he or an accomplish had
stolen three TASKS of quicksilver, enter

dental Circumstance connected with the
robbery, is that three tasks of quick
silver were also stolen night before last
from the Sacramento and Meredith mill,

A SrnAnas CAss or SuDDsn DsATH j,
reported a. follows in yesterdays En-.
esrprise:
] s. J. Dooley, apparently . man o.
some ability in business way and evil
IDENTIFY possessing shrewdness, - shown
by his late transactions, was yesterday
arrested and taken before Judge Living
stone on the charge of having obtained
certain property under false pretenses.
The circumstances of the case, 30 far as
We are able to lesrn them, are these !:
Dooley had borrowed money at different
times from various persons, on slight
acquaintance, by well devised plans,
under the pretense Of having money on
deposit in the Bank Of California. Yes
terday, be purchased a team for which
be agreed to pay the sum of $4,000.
The pa.ty from whom he obtained the
team, becoming somewhat anxious about
bis money, insisted upon his going with
him to the bank and drawing it. Doo-
ley, on getting to the steps of the bank,
appeared to show signs of fainting and
withdrew for a time, and then, after the
further request of his creditor, he pro-
ceeded again to obtain the money which
he said was on deposit in bis name.
He again manifested signs of fainting,
but represented that he had just discov-
cred that his certificate of deposit was
at his room a short distance off. He
was accompanied to the place designat
ed. In the meantime he had been taken
in charge by officer Lackey, on war
rant issued by Justice Livingstone, be-
fore whom he had an examination and
was committed 10 the County Jail.
During the entire proceedings be show
ed signs of illness or intoxication, but
made no complaint. After the examin-
alton he was taken to the Jail, when it
was no longer a matter of doubt that he
was severely i'll. A:physician was at
once sent for, but before he arrived the
man was dead. He expired in about
twenty minutes from the time he enter
ed the prison. Opium was found on his
person, which fact leaves the suspicion
that be probably committed suicide by
means of that drug. A Coroner's in
quest will be held on the body to day.

seems to indicate that he was not with.

A woap Or Two about Carson, it.

A WORD Or Two about Carson, it,
interests and present prospects. Our
solid men and old residents who havs
stuck to Carson's fortunes through thick
aud thin are beginning TO feel themsel
YES rewarded. They are of the opinion
that the place never stood so firmly on
i,sown feet as now. Every interest tina,
has steadily maintained itself here is
now more selfrelisnt, more substantial
and more prosperous than ever. There
is . steady, unaagging trade ceatered
he:e, coming from a permanently set
tied country contiguous hereto. The re-
turns ofU. S. Revenue officers attest the
fact that assessments and collections in
this vicinity are upon higher relative
standard and more to be relied upon,
by large per cent than any other part
of the State. In fact, Carson's flush
times, long past, and since succeeded
by prolonged season of depression have
been supplemented by condition OF
things which is at once healthful and
prosperous. Perhaps property is fixed
here at something nearer its actual value
than anywhere else in the State. That
value is not SO much guaged upon
theory of prospective gains and promis-
ing speculations as upon that which
sssimilaies to whatever promises the
comforts of life. Of the main avenue
Of trade, property is held at what it is
worth for homestesds, garden spots and
farming lands. II is neither a rich
mans Canaan nor a poor mans para
disc; but, rather, promising location
for fair remuneration for all legitimate
industries, prudently conducted trade
and the comforts of q settled, home-like
country. 1t is fitting that the seat OF
government should be fixed in SO per-
manent a locality as this. The necessi- |
ties of the great mining regions which |
Iced importance to our State involve
that character of habits and population
from which stability is not to be expect
ed. Amidst such q people one staid, piod-
ding city is necessary. The State has
u home here. After our wide prospect
ing tramps and venturesome Investments
