THE THIRD TERM.

Our dispatches published this morning
state that ex-senator Nye, the famous
carpet-bagger of Nevada, has been inter-
viewed on the subject OF the third
term" and the results of the recent cleo.
tions. The Gray Eagle of liberty who,
years ago, was strong enough to carry
away q saw mill in his talons, responded
oracularly and apparently by authority.
That at the proper time the President
would formally announce his views on
the subject, which would be against dis.
turbing the ancient tradition of the coun.
try by modern and perhaps dangerous
innovation. Too late; too late. The
President need not trouble himself to say
word. If he does say anything, no
more consequence will be attached to it
than the sough OF the idle wind. The
time has gone by when his utterances on
that subject carried either weight or
value. Some time since, when the mat.
ter was occupying the attention OF the
whole country, formal and decided
defamation of possible but unbecominp
honors, would have been q most graceful
and timely mark of respect for the opin-
ions and consideration of his fellow citi-
zens. He did not choose to do SO. He
lost the golden opportunity. He made
the usual mistake of common and medi.
OGRE natures, when placed by fatuous
fortune in high stations, they fancy their
elevation is owing to their own deserv-
ings and great qualities and think that
they can never fall from their high estate.

rewards and fulsome fattery. He, like

The HAWAIIAN MIssIos.-In converse
ton with the ambassadors the reporter
learned that their official visit to the
United States was made exclusively to
negotiate reciprocity treaty. Former
missions OF the same character have not
met with success because of the failure
of the United States Senate to ratify the
treaties drawn. For the past twenty
years the various administrations in
power in this country had regarded with
favor the negotiation Of a reciprocity
treaty with the Hawaiian Government.
These gentlemen hoped to meet with
better success than that which resulted
from previous missions. They said the
people of the islands did not understand
why our Senate should be SO averse
to reciprocity when the President, the
Secretary of State and American Consul
lar officers always manifested 80 much
desire for the scheme. The people Of
Hawaii interpreted the opposition to q
spirit of unfriendliness instead of at
tribu.ing it to an unwillingness on the
part of the United States to slightly re-
duce one source of revenue. American
influences were in the ascendant in Hon.
olulu. The merchants there preferred to
trade with this coast. They had no home
market for their own products and they
manufactured nothing. Owing to the
contiguity of the islands to. the Pacific
coast. their trade naturally sought San
Francisco. The heavy duties levied on
their rice and sugar shipped to this port
port amounted almost to a prohibition
of commerce with the islands. The re-
suit Of the policy pursued by the United
States is to steadily drive the foreign
trade to Hawaii to the Australian colo.
MES. While the exports and imports to
and from the United States were dimin-
ishing each year, they were increasing in
respect to Victoria and New South Wales.
The duty on sugar in Sydney is one cent
pound and in Melbourne trihe less
than q cent, while in San Francisco it
averages about three cents pound. Ha-
waii imported lumber and manufactured
| goods, and all she desired was to con-
clude treaty on fair basis of exchange.
The ambassadors are armed with sub
stantial tables showing the foreign export
and imports of Hawaii for several years
past. In regard to the annexation to the
United States the ambassadors declared
that the Hawaiians were very jealous of
their Independence as nation, but that
should annexation ever occur, the Ha-
waiians would most likely seek the couu-
try with which they had maintained the
most favorable commercial relations

| INTERNATIONAL POSTAGE RATEs.-Let.
tiers not exceeding fifteen grammes in
| weight Will be forwarded from any part
OF the territory of the parties to the trea.
~ TO any other country for twenty-five
| cents gramme is fifteen and four.
tenths grains, so that fifteen grammes
make about half an ounce. A centime
IS one-hundredth part of franc, so that
twenty-five confines are about equal to
hve cents. The treaty. as generally un-
derstood, provides for international post
age at the rate of six cents for each half
ounce. 1t is provided that any country
may raise the rate to thirty-twO confines
or reduce it to 20 centimes on letters
and if not prepaid the rate will be
doubled. Newspapers, samples and
printed or photographic matter will be
charged seven confines per fifty gram
mes, with the option for each country of
temporarily raising it to eleven centimes
or lowering it to five centimes. The
weight of every sample is limited to two
hundred and fifty grammes, and that OF
every other package to one thousand
grammes. If there is sea transport Of
more than three hundred marine miles,
about three hundred and fifty statute
miles, charge of one-half the ordinary
rate is allowed in addition. The effect
of this new treaty will be to make trans
atlantic postage to Europe practically
uniform. Letter postage will be six cents
to France, Italy and Germany, and to
Russia and Spain, if they sign the treaty.
as 1t is now to England. France, strange
as it may seem. has been great obstacle

wholly for entertainment and artistic plea
sure, independently of information-then
the art of skipping is no longer in its proper
place, and should be very sparingly used, if
at all. 1t is generally mistake in poetry,
and it is absolutely wrong in good novel.
We do not mean to forbid cursory glance at
a novel or volume Of poems about which
nothing is known, honestly intended as a
preliminary inquiry to ascertain whether it
is worth reading at all. One has perfect
right to look into book and say that it ap-
pears to be worth re- ling, or not worth
reading, As the case ma be- and the facul-
ty of doing this with reasonable chance of
guessing right IS indeed closely connected
with the art and mystery of skipping But
we must protest against the habit of test
ing good novel by dips and skips-which
really is nothing better than taking extracts
at random-and then pretending to have
read the novel. This way of treating the
masterpieces of fiction, though we fear it is
not uncommon and meets with but little re-
prehension, we take to be no less vicious
and demoralizing than the much-decried
practice of skipping in books Of solid instruc-
ton. Thesame obseryationapplies, though ina
less degree, to the reading of poems Saiia-
dQV Rerlcr.
