Revolution In Hayti.

NEw YoRK, May l5th.-The following from King
stOn jamaica of May ssh gives this story Ohe latest
revolution in Hayti:
On Saturday, May LIST, was celebrated The annual
agricultural festival throughout Hayt. On theevsn-
ing prevousthe President was advised Of conspiracy
to assassinate him on the following day. with view
to establish Monplaisir Pierre in the Presidency, sup
ported by General Bryce and General Canol. While
the President in church three separate bodies Of
troops sent to arrest the eonspirators General
Bryce. residing Immediately opposite the British Con-
sui the FIRST surrounded. Hefefused to surrender
and shot down four Hayten officers before he was
fred and mortally wounded, when be erspt into
the British Consul's residence and died The shot
intended for Bryce killed the servant Of the British
Consul The Of General Bryce also killed.
When the troops reached the residence Of Monplaisr
Pierre, who was a candidate for President when
General Nisssge's term expired, he retired TO the
attic and shot himself When Gen. Cano was met he
in the vicinity of the U. s. Minister at the head
of body of soldiers These, on seeing the Govern
ment forces, forsook General Canol and fed. The
General went into Minister Bassetfs residence, IN
der the stars and stripes. where he remained. The
scene which followed these incidents is indeserbable
The President. man Overwhelming passion, direct
ed the arrest of every person suspected and arrests
were made throughout the Republic, causing gene
raj panic. Several houses and stores were pilaged
and burned.

to thank the American people for the kind at
tentions shown to King Kalakaua while in
America, and for concluding treaty of reci-
procity with US. which he hoped might prove
perpetual bond of friendship, benefting both
nations alike.
During the ships stay at Hilo, the band
played on shore several times, and the Govern
or and many of the residents, both native and
foreign, were entertained on board. Nearly
all the officers of the ship also paid a visit to
the volcano of KiIauea, where Madame Pele
was, as usual, ready to greet them with pyro-
technic views.
On Tuesday morning, June |, the Pensacola
weighed anchor, and steamed out to sea, max
ing the passage to this port under sail, and ar
irving on Friday morning the 18th inst. The
visit of the Pensacola to Lahaina, Ulupalakua
and Hilo, has left very pleasant impression
on the Admiral and the officers of the ship, who
can bear witness that the Hawaiian people
will most cordially ratify the terms and spirit
of the new treaty with America. And we trust
that, in the words of Governor Kipi, it may
prove to be perpetual bond of aloha or friend
shin between the two countries

Iron and wooden ships.

The loss of the steamer Schiller revives the
old discussion concerning the comparative
safety of iron and wooden vessels. The Schil-
Ter had not only an iron hull but iron masts,
and, as was to have been expected, when she
struck on the rocks and her masts went out of
her, they broke to pieces and sank. 1t is true
that if they had been of wood they might have
supported some of the passengers, but it does
not follow therefore that wooden masts are
preferable to iron. An iron vessel usually
holds together on rocks longer than a wooden
one, and when built in air-tight compartments
an iron vessel will keep afoat under injuries
which would unquestionably cause any wooden
ship to founder. 1t is not so certain that iron
vessels last much longer than those of wood in
ordinary service; in fact it is generally admit
ted that considerable error was fallen into on
this head when iron was introduced as a mate
rial for ship building. We presume that no
iron ship to-day can show as good record
(proportionately) for endurance and service as
some of the old oak and teak-built vessels of
the early part of the century. Iron fouls quite
as much as wood, in long voyages, and when
used for mast material it possesses the disad-
vantage that though bearing heavier strain
than wood, it gives way, when it does, all at
once, whereas wood yields gradually even at
the last. The consideration that wooden masts
will float in a wreck while iron ones go to the
bottom, is really of very little weight, for it is
very seldom that life is saved by wooden
masts. In the case of the Schiller it is evil
dent that the sea was too heavy for anything
but life boat to live in, consequently nobody
could have maintained position on floating
masts. AS it was, even life buoys and belts
proved useless, several women having been
drowned while wearing them. This bears out
some recent remarks of ours on the practical
inutility of all patent life-saving apparatus in
times of real danger. Had Paul Boynton been
passenger on the Schiller, he would either
not have had time to put onhis india-rubber
dress, or he would have been drowned while
floating in it, or dashed to pieces on the rocks.
In such catastrophe it matters very little
what ship is made of. Iron and egg-shels
are on par when exposed to the full fury of
an Atlantic gale beating on the reefs of the
Scilly Isles; but so far as power of fotation is
concerned, it is certain that an old water-log-
ged timber drogher would, in similar circum-
stances, stand better chance of salvation than
the finest iron passenger steamer ever built on

Some condemn the action of the new Chief
Justice of Utah in refusing alimony to Ann
Eliza Young, on the ground that her marriage
with Brigham was illegal and adulterous. The
San Francisco Post states the argument thus
" To allow man to claim a woman as his wife
and to live with her as his wife. and then when
it comes to responsibility, to secure exemption
on the ground that he has not been legally mar
NED, is to permit him to profit by his own
wrong doing" That appears to us to be rath-
er slipshOd reasoning. What does the Posi-
mean when it speaks of 4" allowing - man to
claim woman as his WIFE Surely it knows

PAPERS received by the last steamer an
nounce the death of Mr.. S Q. F. Odell, His
Hawaiian Majesty's Charge d'Affaires at New
York He died at his residence in Brooklyn.
May 9Th, after having held this diplomatic
trust about thirteen years. All who had Off
cial dealings with him speak well of him, and
though he never visited these islands he al
ways took great interest in them, and was
ever proud of his official relations to them.
This government loses by his death, faithful
officer and wise counsellor, whom it may not
be easy to replace. On the day after the re-
ceipt of the above news, all the government
flags were displayed at half-mast as a mark of
respect. The following obituary notice we
find in the New York Eoening Post of May 10 /:
The death of Mr. S. Q. F. OdeI, Charge
d'Affaires Of the Hawaiian Islands in this
country, makes a void which cannot easily be
filled. Mr. Odell was member of the firm of
Barclay & Livingston, and held an honorable
and prominent commercial position. As man
of perfect integrity, discreet counsellor and
an able manager, his aid and advice was sought
by many to whom he was a friend at once kind
and sincere. Mr.. 0dell was a religious man,
and upon the death of his brother, Mr.. Moses
f. 0dell, the well-known representative in
Congress, became the superintendent of the
Sands Street Sunday School, in Brooklyn. In
this school he labored with zeal and affection
as his brother had before him, and there he did
a great deal of good. Those good deeds,
those offices of kindness for the poor and the
unsuccessful, which at the close of life sud-
denly assume such beauty and Importance,
were his to a very great degree. MIR. Odell
was warmhearted man, friendly and very
hOspitable. His father and mother are still
living under his own roof"

that the law does not allow Brigham Young to
claim Ann Eliza as his wife; does not recog-
nize her as his wife; does not recognize their
relationship as anything else than an adulter-
GUS Rdison? As for this woman, she went to
live with Brigham Young knowing well what
she was doing. She was aware that in law she
could not be his wife; that in fact she could
only be his mistress-a member of his band Of
concubines. Neither in law nor in equity can
she have any claim, and in this case law and
equity are in perfect accordance with the die
tates of common sense. 1t would be impossi-
bic for Judge Lowe to recognize her claims to
to alimony without recognizing her status as a
wife, and to do that would be to recognize
the legality of the polygamous system.-Sdc'

neers. These two organizations viii come into
immediate possession Of the proceeds Of Mr.. Licks
estate after provision hiss been made for all the other
benefaeous; and besides that after his death, they
will receive what remains of the 5000 which he
for his own use. The object OF this change
is apparent Under the former deed none OF the
benefcaries could receive any benefit until after
Mr.. Lick's death, because he had perpetual lien of
$4,000 year upon his estate. But under the new
arrangement, Mr.. Licks claim will be discharged
by the payment to him of the gross of $500 OOO
and the remainder of the estate can be at once APP
piled to the purposes intended.
The arrangements as to Trustees have not yet
been adjusted and some correspondence is still
passing on the subject Mr. Lick will himself, it is
supposed, be one of the number.
Most ofthe benefciaries have given their consent
to the new deed and no doubt is entertained that
cordial an assent will be given BY the remainder
Thereafter speedy accomplishment of the objects
of the deed may be looked ont for.

HEnNESnAY line o

We were in error last week in stating that
the Chinese passengers by the bark Kvik from
Hong Kong had g free passages " to this port.
Their passage money was simply advanced and
prepaid by the Hawaiian Government, with the
distinct understanding that each passenger was
to refund it whenever be obtained employment.
The plan is the same as was stated by us at the
time the order was sent, some six months ago.
These immigrants have proved TO be of a very
superior class, and are readily making engage
ments at ten to twelve dollars a month. We
only wish that the number had been one thou
sand instead Of one hundred, as in that case all
who need laborers might have been supplied.
And for the Government the investment is Ger
tainly paying one, for the revenue is augment
ed at least SO head for each person, in the
way Of taxes and duties on foreign products
consumed. Thus, by advancing twenty-five
dollars to pay the passage, government not only
has its money refunded, but the venture insures
an income of ten dollars year on the in
vestment. This is certainly sound policy,
and would be considered good commercial
venture in any country.

The New York Tribune on Judge Porter's OPEN
Ing Address.

The New York Tribune on Judge Porter's Open-
Ing Address.
Nav York, May l9th.-The Tribune has the fol-
lowing reference to Judge Porter's speech: Every
body knew what expect when almost the irst words
uttered by Judge Porter were These men are apt
to be bold of speech when two stawart champions
like Moulton and Titon make a joint assault upon
clergyman and a Woman-the one forbidden by his
profession to return evil for evil the other weak and
powerless, held as in the hollow of the hand by man
who has but to look upon her to subdue her to his
will" The last clause, referring to Mrs. Titon was
delivered in deep, deliberate voice, with greatforce,
and the words uttered the speaker turned
ward TiltOn, who sat behind him. and shook bis
clenched fist in his face with look of scOrn. Titons
face turned very red but he looked straight
in the eyes while bis lips became pressed tight to-
gether as if with suppressed passion. Judge Porter
continued at intervals to turn and denounce Tton to
his face. More than once the latter. who was busy
making notes, dropped his pen nervOusy. and half
turning in his chair faced the speaker with angry
preston.
Judge Porter after contrasting the lives and charac
ters of plaintiff and defendant, hastily sketehed the
more salient events in the life Of Beecher and pro-
nouneed Tilton an adulterer and perjurer. Abiding
to the paternity of the boy. Ralph. Mr. Porter ex-
claimed, with electric force and faeng Tlton If there
be beast upon earth capable of holding such CONVEX
sation his boy with the paramOur of his
adulterOus wife he has lived long upon earth. 1t
is time for him to die. What such men for unless
they have mission in hunting down cergymen.
cruciiying women and committing perjury in Courts
of Justice"
Nothing that was said during the speech caused
deeper feeling in the audience than this sentence de-
vercd with all the whitening force an orator could
condense into his words. Tilton faced all with iron
will, but his cheeks glowed and the lines about his
mouth deep and hard. The denuuciatiOns of
Mouton and several other persons only less Sc
we're than those launched against TiltOn, but as the
persons were not present the effect was much less
marked. The chief aim of Judge Porter's argument
yesterday prove from the character of both Mr.
Beecher and Mrs TiltOn, and from the tone of Mrs.
Ton's letter to her husband the great improbabiity
that adulterous intercourse had taken place be-
tween Mrs. Tiltou and Beeeher.
Judge Porter says he will probably speak until Fri
day il his strength holds out. Evaris desires him to
occupy the whole Of the remainder Of the week with
his argument.
