Probable Murder Near VancebOrO'

BANGOR, July |. On Saturday, in a
small stream which crosses the Wood
stock road near Vancebor,', a crew Of
men engaged in peeling bark tor Samuel
Hayward, Esq, found the body of a man
near a small bridge connecting two little
travelled roads. The body was lying half
on the shore and half in the water and
was much decomposed, From the cir
cumstances that the man was dressed in
male garments but with womar's skirt
and apron and also that a large hole had
been made in his skull, suspicious We're
aroused that he had been murdered. An
empty sack, such as peddlers carry, was
also found near him, giving additional
grounds for the belief that the man was
murdered for his property. No one could
identify the corpse nor could remember
of ever having seen such an individual in
the town. A coroner's inquest was to be
held AS soon as a coroner could be obtain
tanned, and until then the body was left
where found.

The gloom Of actual tragedy has fallen
upon the smiling village Of South Bend,
Ind, for a murder has been committed
near there, Of wh;cs a citizen of the place,
Mr.. Z. w. Rapee, was the victim. He
was the travelling agent of some patent
company, for whom he was doing bust
ness in an adjoining town, and evening
coming on he went down to the dock to
fish. While sitting there intent upon his
harmless and fruitIess sport, he was APP
preached by some one from behind and
his head split open by one fatal blow from
an axe. Mr.. Raplee was some time ago
an overseer in the Michigan State Prison,
and while there incurred the hatred of
some of the convicts, who threatened ven
geance upon him all in good time. An
attempt had before been made to effect an
entrance into his house, but as it failed,
the sangulnary assassins probably hung
upon his steps until an opportunity occur
red to satisfy their brutal longings. His
wife was rendered nearly insane by the
news.

centripetal VS.. Centrifugal.

The policy of the Hawaiian Government since
1864, has in Its working and results been centrip-
etaI. Capitalization has been the Ministerial
shibboleth, and as has been shown by the COM
paratiye view of the Constitution and the Decree,
all the power Of appointments and legislation
has been retained within the circle Of the
Cabinet. Liberty Ins been withdrawn from the
masses-that liberty that was 50 evenly flowing
and marked by such beDeficent results, the very
life of this natIOn.-and is n result we mark 4
condition of affairs indicating q rapid decadenee
in everything that makes n nation. All history,
ancient or modern. tells the same story. Liberty
is to a people what the circulation of the blood is
to the human frame. Put a pressure upon the
principal arteries that supply the extremities Of
the human system with blood, and az Il result we
shall sooner OF later have the impoverished brain
and inert limbs, incapable of plan OF action, and in
time, unless the pressure is removed, paralysis of
the faculties, decay, and death will ensue but,
before it is too late remove the obstruction, and
the Hfe-stream again finds its way along the ac-
custOmed channels. and once more there is life
and vigor where death seemed inevitable.
So with the body polite. Cut off or restrict
the flow of liberty once enjoyed by a people, and
YOU may-nay you must-mark the same results,
in the apathy and stagnation of inter-
the decay of trade the tagging of enterprise;
the accumulation of capital, that for lack of
employment leaves the State.

\ REMARK that was made by one of the speakers
at the meeting Of subscribers TO the Queens
Hospital Fund en- Saturday last, was one that is
particularly suggestive. 1t was to the effect that
while in other countries the course was adopted of
inviting public comPtition by tenders for supplies
to be furnished to pblie institutions, nothing of
the sort is ever heard of here. No argument is
required to demonstrate the propriety of adopting
the course intimaed. If such a system were
honestly and fairlyput in practice in the different
departments of the Government, and more espec-
tally in that of the Interior, in the procuring of
supplies and mateial necessary for carrying on
the different publicworks of the Government, all
suspicion of unfainess and favoritism would be
disarmed, and we ihould no more hear disreputa-
bic stories of the 0ings of . rings which on a
small scale sayors # New York corruption. But
SO long as the preent system of patronage con-
tinues, though wedo not care to place on record
all we are compelled to hear about its workings,
it is nevertheless oy its very nature, open to a
suspicion of u~nfaimess, to say the least, which is
eminently damaglngt to all concerned.

statement that God hath creuted all men free
and equal, and the omission Of this truism in
the Decree of 1864, gives the key to the policy
assumed by the conspirators Of the latter period.
His Excellency. the late r. G.. Wyllie, then Min
lister Of Foreign Relations, and the Government
newspaper organ of the period, had for some time
been untiring in their efforts 20 convince the
public that the people had 8 too much liberty
Nothing could be more unfounded than such an
assumption, AM il originated simply in an
educated bias against liberal institutions, q child
ish yeneration for the divine right of kings, and a
dread Of democratic TENDENCIES, that properly
belonged to a past age. We may safely chal-
lenge any one to prove that the liberty enjoyed
by the Hawaiian people under the Constitutions
Of 1910 and 1852 had by any means degenerated
into license while on the other hand we believe
that any one, conversant with our history, will
admit that the liberty assumed by the conspira-
tors has indeed become license.

picture, when our governmental policy shall be a
centrifugal instead of n centripctal one in its
effects lis not to be hoped for, unless the ~restric-
tions upon liberty are removed. Shall they be ?
Our readers must each for himself answer this
question, after deliberate and mature considera-
ton. 1t is a vital one to King and subject.
