The Prince Around Oahu.

During the past ten days, while His Majesty the
King has been visiting on Hawaii and Maui some
points of interest which were omitted in the Royal
Progress of last April, His Royal Highness the Heir
apparent, in a quiet way and accompanied by a few
friends, has been making the tour of this island, and
is expected to return to town some time to-day. hav-
ing completed the circuit. At every psint when the
Prince made a stop, for rest or recreation, he was ex-
tremely well received by the people, who gathered to
listen with interest to his occasional addresses. Al
though until quite recently unaccustomed to speaking
in public, the Prince already possesses an easy fow
Of words, and a self-possession and grace of manner
that indicate the born orator. A native correspond
ent at Koolau has sent us notes of a short speech de-
livered at a gathering of the people of Hauula, which
we translate
"It gives me sincere pleasure to meet you all here
to-day. Before His Majesty's departure for Hawaii
and Maui, to visit those points which the briefness OF
the time had prevented his seeing on his ~latetour, he
personally charged me to come and see you, and be-
come acquainted with you.
"But let it be understood that l do not come among
you in the capacity of a Chief, but rather as one de-
string to become a public servant, to consult together
and to labor together with the people in everything
that may conduce to the advancement and prosperity
of our country.
How to increase the nation, is 4 subject Of very
great Importance, and it is enc that presents many
aspects for consideration and study. Let me beg Of
you to give His Majesty your constant and hearty
support in the measures which he may propose for
this much-deSired end. You remember that when
the Ring met you here last, the increase of the peo-
pie was the thought always uppermost in His mind.
But He requires the support and cooperation of His
people, in order that success may crown His benevo-
lent exertions. Let us all then, with one accord, ex-
ert ourselves to give Him that support. (Applause.)
n The first step towards the increase of the people
is this that every man shall be industrious, thrifty,
flaw-abiding and moral, in his everyday life. Every
man who thus conducts himself, and labors for the
welfare and improvement Of his family, is conducting
to the increase and prosperity Of the nation at large.
"With these brief thoughts, which | hope you will
ponder on, I will bid you farewell, desiring however
to shake hands with all before going (Applause.)

The prominent Cubans in New York, and among
them those who have been spoken Of as ready to
compromise with Spain. protest eneFgetieally
against any compromise short Of the absolute in
dependence of Cuba, and deny that they or any Of
the chiefs in power have proposed or listened TO
overtures to yield their independence. The truth
i. the Cubans have no faith in the SPaniards and
feel certain that there is no hope or safety for
them but in absolute independence. They would
hardly he disposed TO accept the guarantees Of the
United States for the performance Of Spanish
promises as long as the present Secretary Of State
but the freedom of Cuba will be acceptable to the
patriots. and they will fight to obtain this TO the
bitter end. --

GREAT discomfort is said to prevail in British
Cclumbis, on account Of the failure of the Dominion
Government to keep its promise relative to work on
the Pacific Railroad. 1t was one Of the conditions
precedent TO the entering of British Columbia into
the confederation that the railroad should be built,
and that work should be begun within q year.
Very little has been done on the eastern end, and no
work has been done on the Pacific section. Ii may
as well be frankly acknowledged that a Pacific rail-
road through Canada must encounter many difficult
ties-some Of them almost insurmountable. The
promises made TO British Columbia were rashly
given; and it is now said that that part Of the coven-
ant which stipulated for the immediate beginning Of
track-laying on the Pacific side was misunderstood
The British Columbisns, whatever may be their real
grounds Of complaint, are, however, much dissstis-
fed with the aspect at affairs, and their American
neighbors, SIS usual, sre quite resdy TO foster their
discomfort.
