The Whining Elect

For the fall season of 1873 promises now to be
larger than has been expected. Advices received
by the last steamer from San Francisco state that
twenty-five vessels owned in New Bedford have
been ordered TO recruit at Honolulu. A portion OF
the northern feet will come here direct from the
cruising ground, while eight or ten others will go
10 San Francisco for orders, after receiving which
they will steer for Honolulu. The great demand
for seamen at that port. and the high wages paid
last year, $500 for the run TO England, which
promises TO be the rate this year also. make it
very expensive for whalers. So long as this state
Of things exists, they cannot probably do bust
ness there, and ship owners are wise in ordering
them to the cheapest port in the Pacific. This
corresponds with what the New Bedford Stand
ard predicted in January last would be the re-
suit, which we quote:
A number of untoward circumstances conspircd
TO make the change of port of rendezvous ITO San
Francisco an unfortunate one. Owing to the char
ter of of all merchant vessels by combination of
shippers ia San Francisco, no ship could be pro-
cured 10 take the oil forward on freight, and the de-

Minerva, saved from the abandoned Arctic feet,

be the port of rendezvous for the Arctic whaling

The Political situation

In Hawaii nel continues TO attract public atten-
ton throughout the United States. and the press
make occasional illusions TO the subject. The
California papers generally speak favoraby of the
proposed reciprocity treaty, though Of course in
general terms only, as details have as yet been
proposed nor is it even known that the govern
meDt at Washington desires 10 enter into negO-
iations for such treaty. Private letters reeeiv-
ed by mail do not hold out much encouragement
for treaty Of any kind whatever. We notice,
however. that the free-iFade papers generally
favor a reciprocity treaty probably, as it would
be one step gained toward the accomplishment Of
their theory that free trade between nations is
the only sound political doctrine For densely
peoped and wealthy country free trade is no
doubt the wisest policy as has been demonstrate
ed in England. But until all nations can unite
in it, each must be expected to protect itself
against he evies imposed by others.
No one here doubts the advantage of reci-
procty with America, which is our principal cas-
toner, or that it will benefit all classes more or
less. Foreigners and natives alike see this, and
all will no doubt be ready to endorse the action
of the administration in whatever measures it
may decide to be necessary 10 secure the treaty.
If we fail at Washington, then it may be advisa-
bic to make similar effort with England and one
or more of her colonies, which, though not offer
ing the same advantages, may be induced to ne
gotiate With US for political reasons.

In the House of Commons, on the evening of
July 9Th, Henry Richards, member for Mertha
Tydeva, and Secretary for the London Peace
Society, moved an address to her Majesty the
Queen, praying that her Majesly's government
should communicate with foreign powers for the
purpose of improving international laws, with the
view Of establishing arbitration as permanent
resort for the settlement Of differences between
nations. Richards, in support of his motion,
stated that he had received large number Of
letters from America, expressing sympathy with
his proposition. lie proceeded to show the dan

addition to this the value of the labor that was
drawn from industry by wars Is estimated to be
SI.2500OO000. In Germany the CONSUMPTION
forced on emigration, which was depopuIatlng the
country, and Russia, France, and Italy were
financially crippled by the expenses Of their
enormous establishments.
Gladstone opposed the motion. He argued
that it would defeat its object because the CONT
mental nations held widely different views on the
subject. He asked the gentleman TO withdraw
the motion. Richards declined to withdraw it,
and the House divided The division resulted in
a tie-8S to So. The Speaker gave the casting
vote in favor Of the motion, which was adopted,
aud the Ministry were practically defeated.
On the 18th of July, in the House of Com

Look gloomy enough. At Madrid, each day
opens and ends alike. in state of feverish ex-
citement, and the populAce seem ready to destroy
not only the legislators but their very homes.
Don ri y Margal has been set aside as Presi-
dent, and one Salmeron chosen to take the helm
Of State. He may be the one TO bring order out

Of the best men in Spain, and may succeed. But
while disorder rules at the capital, the provinces
are becoming more turbulent Carlhagena, a
most important naval station on the southwestern
coast, is in the hands of the communists, and
four fine war vessels and three steamers are re-
ported as having gone over to the enemy. To
add to all these troubles, Don Carlos entered
Spain on Wednesday, July IS, from Pau in
France, and appears SO far to have met no great
resistance. The following is the account received
of his entry:
AT 10 O'Clock on Wednesday morning Don
Carlos entered Spain, amidst indescribabe enthu-
siasm. Starting from Pau and Bayonne, he
reached Ustarilz at 5 in the morning, on horse
back, accompanied by two French Legitimists,
one Carlist officer and four correspondents, and
left immediately for the Spanish frontier. The
party wore no arms or uniform, all being in cil-
zens' clothes and carrying foreign passports, but
not single gen d 'drme was encountered. a
halt was made at a small inn on the Spanish side
of the line, near the foot of the Pena Plata,
where the Marquis of Yaldaspiues and General
Lzzaraga were in waiting with q staff and escort
All kissed the hands of the King. Here Carlos
donned brilliant uniform, and the party pro-
ceeded 60 Zuzarrumurdy, where several thou and
troops were encamped. lie Deum was cbanted
in the church. After the religious ceremony
nearly every soldier kissed the Kings hand. All
the Republican prisoners were released. The
cannons OF the fort were fred, and the day given
TO universal hilarity. There four thousand
troops here, but the main force is under Ello, on
the coast oil Biscay, to cover the landing of car
goes of arms aud ammunition from English sAips"
Zuzarramurdy is a small town near the bonnda-
ry line between France and Spain. AT the latest
date, Don Carlos was concentrating his forces
near Victoria, which is twenly-seven miles south
of Bilboa, a seaport on the Bay of Biscay. with
a population Of 10000, for the purpose Of cap
turing Bilboa. He had some 10000 troops. it is
said, aud if he succeeds in his plans, his chances
of maintaining his position in Spain will be very
much improved, as the possession Of this seaport
will enable him to obtain arms and all necessary
supplies. Things look very squaIly in Spain.

fact, he is a telegraph king. That this scheme is
his individual undertaking, no one will believe

Those who have noticed the destruction and

to see wood and coal imported for fuel But
while there is on some parts Of the Islands a
large quantity of wood-koa and other good

either because it is too expensive TO bring to
market. or the owners have not had their atten-

why charcoal should be so scarce and high as it
is. or why it should be imported. Charcoal is
bulky. but at the same time being light pack

through Hamakua and other woody localities on
Hawaii, where tanners have stripped trees of
their bark. must have observed the great quanti-
ties of dead wood that might be, and ought TO be
made into coal. We are confident that Mr.
John P. Parker and Others have dry wood upon
their lands. which is rapidly going to decay, and
which they would allow coal-burners to take at a

Legal Decisions.

We congratulate the mercantile community on
the decision Of Chief Justice Allen. published on
our first page, decreeing that duties shall not be
levied on freight charges from the original port of
shipment. no matter by what route they may be
forwarded. The case was so clearly in favor of
the importer that we have been surprised that
any different view could be taken of it by the
government. Our duties are based on the actual
cost Of the goods at the port Of original ship
ment and not on charges OF any kind which may
accrue after the goods leave that port. There is
still another rule lately established, Of exacting
dnties on the fictitious charge of commissions.
which is of the same nature, and wholly unjust,
because il does not constitute part Of the cost of
the goods. We understand that the Consul at
San Francisco now refuses to certify to any in
voice unless this charge of ~ per cent. for COM
missions is added. There is no Law to sustain his
demand and if there was, it ought to be repealed.
A merchant, writing by the last steamer. says:
-" We are compelled by the Consul 10 add this
charge to your invoice, but do not expect you TO
pay it." This is what some will term official NAL
practice, and ought TO be put Stop 10. Inc

Japan aud Peru.

Japan and Peru have referred their dispute
about the Peruvian cooe ship Maria Luz, which
put into Yokohama last year in Distress to the
Emperor of Russia for arbitration and settlement.
1t will be remembered that the Japanese Govern
ment caused an investigation Of the case and or
dered the release of all the coolies and their re-
turn to China. Peru took offense. and sent an
Envoy to demand satisfaction and treaty guar
anteeing that The japanese Government would
not repeat the act in the event of her coohe
ships again visiting japanese ports. The deter
mination to settle the dispute by arbitration is
doubtless the result of the example of England
and America in the Alabama difficulty.
