cided upon by that Body.
WHEREAs, a Bill is now before the Legislative Assembly of
this Kingdom, leganzng the distIlation Of alcoholic liquors,
which Bill is likely to become a law, therefore,
We the undersigned, do hereby enter our public protest
against This measure for the following reasons
l. That We consider the production Of alcoholic liquors ex-
cepting for scientific and medicinal purposes, as a waste Of
material and probationary in any community.
2. That we do not consider that this scheme will be Of fnan-
cal benefit to the industries of these islands.
3. That the unavoidable practical result Of the above men,
toned measure will be, Cheap rum for Hawaiians, whatever
may be the safeguards that the law may endeavor TO throw
around it.
T. That this measure will be the giving up of a policy in re-
spect 10 the temperance question in general which we are not
willing TO see abandoned, and mat me giving up of this policy
will deprive us as a community of that sympathy and moral
support which is needed both for the maintenance of indie
pendence as 4 government, and for the obtaining Of favors in
the way Of reciprocity in trade.
5. That the moral effect of this measure upon the Hawaiian
community will be disastrous in every respect; and that il
will only be a means Of more rapidly fastening its extinction.

FIsk's Fame in Italy.

By way of illustrating how American
contemporary history is serI ed up, 1 give
the following from the Fanfulla Of Rome, a
journal better informed than most, prefac-
ing my translation with the remark that the
common misuse in Italy of for k (Which
latter letter is not in the italian alphabet)
has many times caused a confusion in the
public mind between James Fisk, Jr., and
Secretary Fish. During the trial OF Stokes
many we're the questions as to the identity
OF his victim, and upon his conviction
somebody athirst for accurate information,
wrote to the above named journal, asking
for it. Here is the editorial response:
"Fish was a fine fellow In his day chief
the Tammany ring and of the Erie ring
two clubs of Spectators at the bourse,
about which The FdnJulld spoke a month
ago.
"Fish plunderd by hsndfGls from the
public treasury on the one side and from
tie treasury of the railway from New York
to Erie, and made the millions dance as il
they had been made of India rubber.
ain chronological order, he was the last
Of the nabobs, in order of riches, the first.
"Now it happened that in the course OF
his adventurous life he stumbled upon the
sister Of Stokes. To see her and-well, all
the rest was the affair Of few days. The
fair Stokes laden with gifts and gold, might
soon have given points to Cleopatra, TO the
queen of Golconda, and all their pearls.
But love soon passed away; for some
natures love is money, and circulates,
crculates, circulates, endlessly. And one
fine day the fair Stokes found herself in
the condition or Olympia, above mentioned,
abandoned high and dry on the rocks.
"At this juncture steps out the brother.
"While there was anything to nibble at,
the fine fellow nibbled away behind the
scones and held his peace. But when the
bone was gnawed, all he rage Of injured
honor took the tield within his generous
soul, and he put himself upon the tracks of
his pseudo brother-in-law, claiming salts
faction for his sisters honor, and a
hitting compensation. What lessed fel-
lows are these positive men
"But his anxiety was vain. Fish stood
firm, and Stokes, one fine day, ambushed
upon hotel staircase, showered pistol shots
upon him.
The revenge was consummated, and the
family honor, in default of bath of gold
was washed in blood.
"Since that day two years have rolled by
and having been brought to trial, the muir
derer, by dint of remands from one cour
TO another was nearly going unpunished.
English and American laws require
unanimity for verdict of condemnation
one dissenting voice carrying the remand
Of the case.
"The unlucky Stokes fell at last upon I
jury less Amerian than the others, ant
was, as the telegraph reports, condemned

own character. He was not democratic in
his personal sympathies, while the associa-
tions Of his early life we're limiting, IL not
aristocratic in their tendencies; and no one
from thence could have predicted that here
was 10 be the champion of equality, the a.
postle Of deliverance 10 the poor and de-
spised OF another race. But the principle
that was in him took him up with the de-
votion OF a Luther and the zeal Of Loyola.
All men became alike in his eyos-alike err
titled to justice, TO the protection and the
immunities of the law. In pursuit OF his
object he feared nothing on earth and he
spared nothing that stood in his way. And
though his answering fidelity brought
him TO deaths door, he lived-as few Of the
worlds heroes have-to see his complete
triumph, and 10 feel in his heart, we have
no doubt, the sweet consciousness that man
kind would never willingly let bis memo

THE GIRL NEXT DooR.-A correspond

were many days in our new quarters we
learned, among other neighborhood gos-
sip, that "next door to us lives the Widow
Delany Shades of st. Patrick y and her
daughter Maria, a beautiful singer"
soon had an opportunity TO judge of her
abilities. Our gas was out for the night,
and was just entering dreamland, linger-
ing in that semi unconscious condition one
enjoys so much before falling 'eep, when
a wall so long, unearthly and agonizing
broke upon rhe stiffness, 1t seemed as II
some mlsused tom-cat, despairing of all
happiness in this world, had given vent to
one last heart rending cry.

giving my better-half poke in the ribs
by way of emphasis.
"Taint cats" he snappishly answered ;

While twilight fingers, in the purple dusk

Past fragrantbeds OF mignonette and musk,
Where tiny buds grouped round parent stalk
Seem prattling low their tender, household talk.
And 10 !-"Good night sweet mother" sighs the ;
"Good nightl-good night" the lily murmurs near
From flower to flower lovely laughter flows
As in the moonlight, tremulous and clear,
The old fond greeting falls upon my ear.
wiring my hands with awful Joy and WOO
And lend my face Town to the no tding flowers;
These the voices of the long ago
Come back again in nights warm, starry hours,
To the green beauty Of these garden bowers.
GOOD night!-soOd night" the dewy blossoms sigh,
And sob and laughter follow, faint aud low;
The lily buds that on my bosom lie
Like baby tresses, In the star.beams glow
- the cool winds across them softly blow.
"Good night night! sweet mother" sishs the
rose
"Good night!-good night" the clustered lilies call ;
Prom flower to flower the gay, glad greeting flows,
And mid the bending blue bells, by tho wall,
hear the voices Of the loved aud gone
Above the hushed hum Of the birds and bees
Singing the old familiar melodies
Alb! thus they used to come in other days
And wreAthe my neck and toss my ruffied hair,
And make the house ring with their wilful ways;
With dancing steps they hung about my chair,
Making my heart glad with their tender care.
And II dream again that they have come
You will not blame me, motherr reading this;
You know how sweet the voice s that s dumb
In death you know what wealth OF joy miss
In the lost laugh, the happy morning kiss.
GOOD night!-good night" the moonlh lilies sigh,
And then silence follows, dull and dark;
dusky veil drops down the sky;
The wind is up mid the trees; and bark!
hear the house dogs in their kennels bark.
Perchance my dArliDgs have come back again;
From some unknown and strange near land, who
knows,
They, feeling all my weary weight Of pain,
Have homswArd stole 30, mother!" kighs the

al in their enjoyment Of the good things Of

blinded to the fact that they stand In the
way of all reform. The horrible drunken
ness of the larger cities OF Great Britain,
with which no hell that America holds can
compare for moment, can never be re-
formed until the drinking habits of the
English clergy and the English gentry are
reformed. With eleven-twelfths OF the Brit

ers tabooed in society, and social drinking

ity will reign in its own chosen centres un-
disturbed, and those centres will increas-
ingly become what, to a frightful extent,
they already are fostering sores upon the
body social, and stenches in the nostrils of
the world.
The habits, neither Of Great Britain nor
America, will be improved until men OF
influence in every walk of life are willing
to dispense with their drinking customs.
Hundreds Of thousands Of English-speak-
ing men go to drunkard's grave every
year. There is nothing in sanitary consid-
erations as they relate 10 the moderate
drinker, and surely nothing in the pleas
ures of the moderate drinker, to mitigate
this curse. 1t is all delusion. The wa
ter-drinker is the healthy man, and the
happy man. Spirits, wine, beer, alcoholic
beverages of all sorts are burden and a
bane, and there is no place where good
man can stand unshadowed by fatal de-
lusion, except upon the safe ground oftotal
abstinence. Until that ground is taken and
held, by good men everywhere, there can
be no temperance reform. The wine
drinkers of England and America have
the whisky drinkers in their keeping.
