The GERMAN PEACE CELEBRATIoN.-By the Mary
A Reed, on Friday last, news was received here Of
the final ratification Of the terms Of peace between
Germany and France. In accordance with previous
notice, the German residents celebrated the follow
ing day by services in Fort Street Church, and by
torchlight procession in the evening.
At the church the services were commenced by a
prelude on the organ by Mr.. HoHschlaeger, which
was followed by prayer by Rev Father Hermann.
The congregation then sang the Choral Hymn in
German, " Nun dauket ale Gott, Let all thank
God. After which original poem was read by Mr.
Hofschlaeger, and an eloquent address delivered by
DR.. W Hillebrand. The services were concluded by
singing Elm ieste Burg ist uuser Cot, "A secure
rock is our God, and prayer by Rev. Father Her
mann. At y NJ, lOl guns were fired from a battery
below Punch Bowl. In the evening all the German
residents paraded the streets in torchlght process
sion. The procession was formed at = P NJ at
the German Club, and after marching TO the resi-
dCnce Of the German Consul lwho Joined the pro-
eessioul, proceeded TO the Palace. At the Palace
the band played the Hawaiian National Hymn, aud
the gentlemen in the procession sang " Die Wacht
an RheiHn with great effect; the band then played
God save the King" when the procession returned
TO the Club where the German residents INDUCED in
mutual congratulations until a late hour, upon the
happy conclusion of the war.
It is seldom that the citizens of Honolulu have
witnessed 8 more impressive ceremony than that at
the church on this occasion, or more brilliant and
imposing procession than that Of the evening.
Besides the procession in the evening there were
fireworks and boufres exhibited on Punch Bowl
one Of which was most beautiful and appropriate it
being an illumination, in which the German word
"Friede'' CPeacel in gigantic characters, was dis
played from high point on Punch Bowl for over an
hour during which time it showed most beautifully
The grounds and residences Of many Of the Ger
man residents were brilliantly Illuminated during
the evening.

Training BOYS as Sailors.

The London Spectator observes: The
sailors in the Queens navy are very good.
The sailors in the Merchants navy are
very bad. That seems to be the general
result Of the interesting debate raised by
Mr.. Graves on Tuesday, and a very
curious result it is. The Admiralty, il
seems to be allowed on all hands, has
succeeded in an experiment quite unique
in our official history, and capable Of al
most indefinite extension. 1t was dis
covered in 1859 that the supply of ''blue-
Jackets" that is, of thoroughly skilled
seamen willing to enter the Queens ser
vice, was falling short, and the Admiralty
resolved 70 try an experimental take

thoroughly in schools of its own, and to
exact from them in return continuous
services from eighteen to twenty-eight,
when they are dismissed to ordinary life
| The idea succeeded. Boys are !. drug in
the British market, heaps of boys were
found to be procurable, they were well
| trained. well taught, well fed, and. they
made admirable sailors. All the critics
of the Admiralty say they could not be
! better There are, however, two or three
shadows in this picture. One, and the
lightest, is that these boys have supplant-
ed the old breed of sailors till the man-o'
war's-man, as Nelson knew him, the
rough, ready, efficient hero, is as almos
extinct as the moa The second shadow
is very dark indeed. The Merchan
Marine is said to be detoriorating, and is
certainly less effective as reservoir fol

A Wandering Administration.

The ''Govcrnment'' is now carried on
by Il few heads of Bureau, and such clerks
rs vet remain in Washington. Never be
fore in our whole history, has the public
business been 50 culpably neglected, or
so wiltully subordinated to private con
venience and pleasure, at the expense OF
the people, rs under this Administration.
General Grant inaugurated n practice Of
abscntceism. the balctul effect of which
has been felt through every branch Of the
civil service, and utterly demoralizcd the
little remaining sense Of duty, which lax
ity in other respects had left. As Il neces-
sary consequence of this want Of EXecu-
tive supervision and personal care for
public and private interests, corruption
and jobbery prevail to most alarming
extent The rights of claimants arc
either ignored, or carried by downright
venality, while great national affairs in
volying untold millions Of expenditure,
are rcleoated TO the hands of subordl-
mates, who, under the influence Of bad eX
ample and loose administration, exercise
power for which they are entirely unfit
ted.

Well, never mind, keep Is; I don't
think it is q bit too much"
So he insisted and grateful John &C.
cepted it with thankfulness.
"By the way, here is box Of old
school books molding up here Mother
said you were welcome to any or all Of
them if you will take them away"
A box of school booksi How Johns
eyes frightened and his whole face
glowed as he began to look them over!
You don't mean to say that can have
some of these for my ownY
Yes, all of them, if you like; shall
never use them. You may take the
wheel barrow and wheel them home, box
and all, if you wish, and that will save
you the trouble of looking them over"
To the studious, hard working boy who
had been obliged to twist and turn. and
save to buy even one book, here was per
feet mine of wealth. Each one was busted
and wiped off neatly, and then set up in
his small case of shelves, and really made
quite fine beginning for future library.
There were several nicely bound histories
and quite a number of text books the same
that were used in the academy. There
was not one that he did not prize, and it
really made Frederick more happy than he
had been for many day to see the boys
pleasure 1t was frightened still more by
the delight of Johns little sister over some
gay toy books Freddie had gathered up
and slipped in for her.
"Uncle Silas, think could eat slice
of your bread and cheese if you had any
to spare" said Freddie, laughing, as he
stood, with rosy cheeks and bright eyes
by the old mans side just as the sun was
setting in the west
Sorry haven't some left for you, my
boy; but your tea-bell will sound pretty
quick"
! well, wish they would hurry up"
"Been trying my prescription, see, and
it has worked WELL Always come to
Uncle Silas when you get the dumps and
don't know what's the matter. Now, see
if you don't have good nights sleep. and
be sure you wake up with the resolution of
doing good days work tomorrow. De-
pend upon it you'll find openings enough
for business if you'll only keep your eyes
open to see them"
Freddie astonished his mother by the
unusual number of tea-cakes he disposed
of that evening, and he quite regretted it
was his mothers fashion to provide such
light delcacies for tea. He would have
greatly preferred slice Of cold roast beef,
but ! dare say he slept better than be
would have done after very hearty, sub
stantial meal
After tasting the pleasure which kind,
generous actions bring, it was quite natural
he should desire to repeat them. Indeed
he seemed to grow more and more thought
full of others as time wore on, and to look
upon his abundance as n means of doing
good in the world rather than of procur-
ing for himself merely selfish qualification.
1t is hard for us often to go back and
see just what it was that gave US a bent in
particular direction, changing, it may be,
our whole life course. Often the circum-
stance was so slight it may have entirely
passed from our notice. But in Freder
ick's case he was certainly greatly indebted
to that days talk with plain Uncle Silas
over the wood saw. --G Golden Hours
