difference Of $4,000 from $500, 900 may be Of

\ Vicious DoG.-One day this week a feeble
looking Chinanan, with his head bound up, and
limping in his gait, made a complain to the police
against a dog. John was riding quietly and slowly
along on horseback, when a vicious dog rushed
ont of a yard and fastened on to his horses heels,
which he bit so severely that the horse bucked and
kicked. throwing John very badly, and cutting his
head. While he was telling his story, the owner of
the dog came along, and at once took the Chinaman
to a doctor to have his wounds dressed, and de-
clared his intention to pay all reasonable damages
and then kill the dog. The humanity of his pro.
ceeding in the matter prompts rs to say that his
name is Weik. and that he is a shoemaker of skill.

y NAN MIssING.-About a week ago one of the
sailors of the L.. S. S. California, who was in con-
fnement on board for some offense, got out of his
irons and jumping overheard swan for the reef. No
tice was at once sent to the Police on shore and men
were Immediately sent TO capture the man when he
should attempt to make for the main shore. But
be has never been seen since. He may have posi-
bly, got to the shore unseen and be now concealed
somewhere in the hills, or he may have drowned.
Every vessel that left the harbor since has been
thoroughly searched.

KIMo KAMAI.-This individual, whose name is
destined to live in the annals of Hawaiian courts as
the first of what may hereafter prove a long line of
" temporarily insane was. after his acquittal by
the jury, returned to the temporary leper hospital
at Kalihi. Two days afterwards he absconded from
the hospital and returned to his own house in the
valley, near town. On Tuesday a proper warrant
was procured by the order of the Board of Health,
and Kamai was again arrested as a leper. The next
day his wife employed counsel and measures were
taken to obtain Z writ of ha6eas corpus. Meantime
on the same day, by direction of the Board, Kamai
was critically examined by a commission of three
physicians, who made a written statement that in
their opinion his disease was leprosy. The writ of
ha6eas corpus was thereupon abandoned, and it is
now reported that Kamai's wife is also affected with
the disease, and that they will both go to Molokai.

A Doctor FOR THE LEPERs-A correspondent in
to-day's paper very pertinently suggests that the
large company of unfortlnates at Kalaupapa
should be provided with a medical man to reside
in their midst. Because a person is a leper, it does
not follow that be may not be attacked with some
other disease. Life is doubtless sweet to aleper as
well as to one who is clean, and his unfortunate
malady should furnish no reason why he may not
be cared for in sickness as well as the rest of his
countrymen. And We may add, in the words OF
the Gazette: They should also be provided with
newspapers. books, and religious instruction-in
short, everything needed to render them resigned

MILITARY VS.. CIVIL AUTHoRITY.-A short time
ago, in the Police Court of this city, a native sol
der on the stand as a witness, stated it as his I'M
Outstanding that the military were not at all sub
ject to the Civil Authority,-that is, as he stated it,
if he committed any offense or crime he was to be
tried only by a military court. On Wednesday
last, while the Supreme Court was in session, a sol
der with his side arms marched into the Court
Rooms and without uncovering delivered a note,
and was about stalking out, when the Court called
attention to the incivility and caused the fellow to
be instructed as to his duty. The Attorney Gen
eral, who was present, quite conceded with the
view of the Court that the military should be made
to understand that they were in all cases subordi-
nate to the Civil Authorities, and he undertook to
see that they were so instructed in the future by
then commanding officers. OF course these COM
mon soldiers have obtained their ideas of the i'm
portance and independence of their service from
some of our superior rank. and it is quite time they
were fully undeceiyed. 1t was only the other day
that the corporal in charge of a file of soldiers
marching through the street, deliberately stuck his
bayonet into a horse because the rider came too
near to his dignity. The case was tried in the Po-
lice Court. and despite some very " tall swearing"
by his comrades, the corporal was fned-in the in
adequate sum however of 50,

THE COASTERS AND LEPRoUs PATIENrs.-SOme
misapprehension appears to exist among the owners
of coasting vessels as to their rights and duties in
the matter of the transportation of leprous pa
tients from the other Islands to Honolulu. The
subject is covered by the Act of 1870 amending
Section "a of the Civil Code, which for the inform
alton of all concerned we will quote:
