Capelle is located. OF this worthy German
the report speaks highly, and says that the
mission are greatly indebted to him for aid and
assistance in many ways. A German bark, the
Alfred, owned at Samoa, was wrecked at this
port, and the vessel and cargo were total
loss.
September 10th, reached Ebon, and found
Messrs. Snow and Whitney we'll During a
calm the vessel drifted to sea, and was gone
five days. At the Island of Ponape, left Mrs.
Sturges and Mr.. and Mrs. Rand. From this
point the packet sailed westward to the new
station at the Mortlock Islands, where the
teachers were all well. On the return trip all
the stations were visited, the packet quitting
Butaritari on the 4th of January, and arriving
at Honolulu February Sd, having encountered
a severe gale during the passage.
Captain Gelett remarks that he everywhere
noticed an improvement in the condition of the
natives since his former visits in the Morning
Star, showing that the Mission has produced
good results. The notorious Captain Hayes,
after whom several war vessels have been dis
patched, is reported to have reformed from his
evil ways, and become changed man. At
present he is living at Kusaea, and endeavoring
to lead a different life from what he has led in
former years.

International Exhibition ut Mel.
bourne.


A letter from Charles n Oakley, Esq, Ha-
waiian Consul at Melbourne, addressed to His
Excellency the Minister of Foreign Affairs,
conveys the intelligence that there will be a
grand industrial exhibition held at Melbourne,
commencing in August of this year, to which
an urgent invitation is sent for contributions
from Hawaii. The Consul says: 81 need
hardly point out the great advantage which
might ensue by the establishment of an Ha-
waiian Court in the proposed exhibition, or
the commerce which would be likely to arise,
if the best Hawaiian sugars, pull, coffee, and
other products suitable for consumption here,
were properly placed before the Victorian peo-
pie and the visitors who will most certainly
pour in from other colonies.
''At the present time immense sums of Vic
torian money are annually directed to FIJI and
New Caledonia for the purpose of establishing,
despite the disadvantages attending upon
lower state of civilization than Hawaii offers,
manufactures for the production and dressing
of the best sugars, as the Mauritius supply is
fast becoming inadequate to our needs. If
from ignorance of its great natural resources,
the Hawaiian Kingdom is greatly prejudiced,
an opportunity now offers itself to merchants
and traders in the islands to remove the dis
ability.
Should the owners of them desire it, all
the exhibits will be forwarded and placed in
the Victorian Court at the Philadelphia exhi-
bition. Should any united action be contem-
plated by Hawaiian exhibitors, it is desirable
that l should be informed of it by return mail
A Letter from Sir Redmond Barry, President
of the Melbourne Exhibition, addressed to Con-
sui Oakley, urges that contributions from Ha-
wall be sent, and enumerates the following
articles as desirable:
Natural productions including those usu-
ally associated under that heading. |. Cereals,
grasses, fruit, food, fodder, textile and medi-
cinal plants; those used for preparing drinka-
bles; dyes, oils, timber, bark, resins, varnish,
essences, sugar, tobacco, the animal kingdom |
furnishing food, minerals of all kinds. 2. |
Works of art, machinery, industrial produc-
tions of every description, the indigenous ma
terials in a manufactured state, with any spe-
cial productions of nature or of art peculiar to
the country.
''To these might be added models of fruits,
stuffed specimens of indigenous animals or
birds, with preserved fish and insects, seeds of
trees, shrubs and plants likely to grow in the
air in Victoria or in Conservatives or hothouses,
and living plants possessing useful properties
or distinguished by their beauty and elegance
in Wardian cases, which would be greatly
priced by u.s."
We need not urge on our agriculturists and
and artizans the benefits which arise from
these international shows. All who have ever
taken part in them must know the advantage
that accrue to the individuals and country SO
represented. We trust that hearty response
will be given, and display made which will
be credit to Hawaii

The Struggle in France.

The news by telegraph from France is of the
greatest importance and indicates the growth
of that uneasy, and ultimately irresistibly
restless feeling which has so often precipita-
ted the country into war or revolution. Taken
by itself the overwhelming majority against
the establishment of a second or Upper House
of Legislature might not be of much impor-
lance. But in France the Upper House is re-
garded as the representative of aristOcratic
privileges, and government by one House as
the only consistent and logical mode of demo-
cratic self government
So sensitive are the Americans to the evils
of single House of Legislature that they not
only have Senate in the general Parliament
of the United States, but an Upper House in
The Hawaiian gazette., 1875-02-10

every State without exception. Upper Houses
do not however represent to an American,
either exclusive privileges or an aristocratic
principle. They are simply Houses composed
in most cases of men elected by some excep-
tional suffrage different essentially from the
universal vote of the people by which the
Lower Houses are elected. They are also
limited to persons of certain age generally
not less than 30 years. These Houses form an
admirable check on undue impetuosity in &C
ton or undue haste in legislation and not un-
frequently are also a much-needed check on
Governments whose task is rendered more easy
when they have but one House to manipulate
and corrupt.
To the Frenchman the Upper House is unfortu-
nately q symbol OF aristocratic privileges and an
embodiment Of the aristocratic principle. It's re-
jection as reported by the latest kilograms and the
resignation of the Ministry thereon, have therefore
peculiar significance. Possibly the Republicans
were Joined for interested purposes this ocea-
sion by the numerous walters the several Royal
and Imperial pretenders, whose interest it Is TO
keep the nation in unsettled state that they and
their chiefs may come forward once at the due
time as the saviours OF society. II so the Republic
cans have fallen readily into the trap and shown
but little political wisdom. The example of the
United States was before them. They could see
there that the Upper House is quite consistent with
Republican simplicity and with Republican Politi-
cal equality. They remember however, the hatred
of the nobility which drove their fathers TO such
deplorabe and the feudal oppression which
largely went to justify them. They remember
that since the days of their early revolution, the
Upper House has been 10 them body of wretched
ntriguers, bent only sacrificing the country and
the people to their own order and to the Emperor
or King whom they may set up as pupPet Be
this as It may, the result Of the last vote when $50
members out OF House of GO decided to trust the
fortunes of France once more to the uncontrolled
action of a single House is a measure of deep i'm

The finances of our Southern Colonial neigh
Dor seem to be in a most prosperous condition
A summary of the receipts and expenditures
for 1874 appears in the Sydney papers received
by mail, and we are told that when the Treas
urer made his financial statement in October,
1873, he estimated the revenue for 1874 at
f3,l6s,935. Instead of this large sum, the
receipts have proved to be 3,5l4, 3I4 Cor Sl7,-
57I, OOO) an increase over the estimates of
nearly two millions of dollars. And this ex-
traordinary revenue has taken place in the face
of an abolition of duties on imports amounting
to one million of dollars The customs reve-
nue. is now collected on about fifty articles, and
produced in 1874, 1854 1888.
The income from sales of land, amounted in
1874 to fl,426, Ie6, which indicates steady
and large immigration from Europe and else

In 1873 the postage on newspapers carried
through the Colony was ,ohoQy abolished, and
notwithstanding this important change, the
postal receipts for 1874 have shown but
small falling of, say $4,000, which promises
to be recovered before the end of 1875.
The total balance in the colonial treasury
December 81, 1874 was E2,O46,4 ss, or about
ten millions of dollars.
The imports of New South Wales for 1874,
were s9,25s,sle, and the exports ss,66s,l3I,

millions of dollars. This is only about one
quarter of the Australasian commerce.

Prevention Of Cruelty to Animals.

HONOLULU, February I'd, 1875.
! The Editor Of The Halcuiidn Gazette
! SIR:-The fJrcibe letter OF your correspondent
"Fides Aehates" in last weeks gazette" will
awaken echo in many minds here as the express
sion of their feelings with regard to the shame
full itreatment practised in these islands towards
that noble animal the horse. The friend of man,
with instinct hardly inferior sometimes to mans in
telligeDce, and temper often more generous in
any country is considered deserving at least of pro-
lection from absolute cruelty; while here, where
climate and habit make the horse perhaps as great
necessity to he anywhere is, earelessness
neglect aud disgusting cruelty are his fate.
Starved, overdriven, overloaded, ridden when so
young that no trainer would allow pounds weight
to interfere with the growing strength of the spine
raced to the end Of his endurance aud then left to
stand with bride tightly loOped to the saddle
peak until life must be an agony, the flesh worked
off his bones aud the skin off that, a victim to all
that flies Sores heavy bits spurs aud starvation can
bring him, such is the horse ofthe Hawaiian Islands
Sir while speak of these things, cannot but re-
call the indignation they awakened in my mind
when years ago came here from a country where
horseculture is carried to high point and trust
the letter of your correspondent will arouse similar
reeollections in others.
From an economic point Of view, it would pay
well for this system of horsetreatment to be altered
His late Majesty Kamehameha ", in addressing the
Hawaiian Agricultural Society nearly twenty years
since, said that good horse, allowed to grow up
before being broken in, fed well and supplied with
plenty of water, and never raced until his legs can
not carry him, worth ten of the miserable ami
mails here called property.
Bat in the interests Of humanity alone, is there
not enough kindness towards animals in this CON-
munity to originate some measure for improving
the miserable condition of our horsesg. very
small subscription on the part of a fair number of
persons would doubtless render possible some such
practical result society for the prevention Of
cruelty to animals, and will have to expend
much either in trouble or 10 cash
1 enclose my card, sir, and stan be very glad If
any who sympathize with the idea Of assocatiug
themselves in the way suggested or in any other
manner for the same object will be SO good as to
leave their names in your Office or in that of the
by which means perhaps meeting may
be arranged.

An ovation was rendered to Governor Robin
son, on his return to Sydney, after the sue
.csssful annexation Of FIJI to the British En-
pire, report Of which will be found on our
fourth page. The speech of the Governor is
well worth reading, for he clearly indicates
that the acquisition Of FIJI is but the CON-
