POSTAL MATTERS.

= In our issue of the 18th ultimo, on the eve of
the departure of the Chief Justice for Washing
ton, we suggested that the opportunity might be
improved to negotiate a second postal treaty, or
TO so amend the existing one as to include all
mailable matter by prepayment in full in stamps
of the country where mailed and q reduction
on newspapers and all mailable matter (other
than Ietters) in accordance with the prevailing
systems of England and the United States. And
in connection with this subject we are reminded
that. in order to be consistent in asking for these
favors from the government of the United States,
we must begin at home, and reform our own
postal charges. Section 403 of the Civil Code is
the law which requires modification in this re-
spect, and for the information of readers We here
quote its provisions
The following shall be the rates Of Hawaiian postage on all
mailable matter forwarded TO, or received from, any foreign
port:
Five cents for every single letter weighing less than hall an
ounce; CIRore than one ounce and five cents for every ad-
ditionaI n + ounce and, in addition TO the above rates, the
sea pc =. shall ; collected on the said letters.
Two ce,ts on . n newspaper, price current, printed cir
cular, orL I9V Ented paper not being q pamphlet provided,
howeye : may recprocate, posi-free, with foreign
pamphlet containing less than so pages;
pamphlet containing as many as 90
o pages and twelve cents for every
pages or upwards.

The WELCOME RAIN.-The first Of our real winter
rains visited Honolulu and vicinity on Thursday
morning. From 4 O'Clock until nearly seven the
dense clouds poured their watery treasures down in
lowing abundance. Two battalions of electricity,
one in the North and one in the South. furnished
vivid lightning with all that could be desired Of
thunder accompaniment, some of the peals being
peculiarly sharp and near at hand. There was no
chiefs funeral going on at the time, or moving of dis
tinguished bones. Perhaps the Gazette and Friend.
who both told US about the thunder in honor of a
dead King the other day, will explain what the rum
pus was about on Thursday morning.

THE PACIFIC
Commercial ASbertiser.
SATURDAY, DECEMBER IL.

{ WE LEARN that the new wooden structure in
course of erection on Nuuanu street above Hotel,
is intended for a retail spirit establishment and
several reflections are suggested thereby. Assum-
ing, for the nonce, that a certain proportion of
liquor saloons are necessary for the supply of
those who use intoxicating drinks, it would GER
tainly seem that our city is already amply pro-
vided, by the seven saloons now existing. The
proposed new shop is located on the most public
and frequently travelled thOroughfare in the city,
and almost directly opposite a private residence
occupied as a female seminary. just in the rear
of the shop extends a network of blind alleys,
occupied by the lowest class of our population,
constituting a neighborhoOd peculiarly favorable
for the prosecution of q brisk Illicit trade with
natives. These considerations might surely be
sufficient to induce the exercise of the discretion
in these matters which is vested in the head of
the Interior Department. Moreover, we are IN
formed that the person who proposes to take out
q license for the new GROCERY is one of the party
of twelve natives and foreigners, who were found
guilty in the Police Court of gaming, on the 2lst
of October last, and that he was en- that occasion
sentenced as one of the " dealers, y to pay q fine
of twenty-five dollars and be imprisoned for
twelve hours. Are no considerations of charac-
ter taken into the account when n man asks to be
entrusted with o license to retail intoxicating
drinks?

When properly appealed to. the United States
postal department has always been ready in
former years to afford us all reasonable conces-
siOns and facilities. Previous to 1850, the prac-
tice Of the San Francisco post Office was TO charge
for every half ounce letter coming to these islands
24 cents postage, and 3 cents for every newspa-
per, and the mail bags were sent through a GER
tain mercantile house. To the e~xertions of the
Hon. 5. y. Castle the community owed the re-
duction Of these heavy charges. That gentleman
lat the time acting a. secular agent of the A. B. c.
F. NJ first addressed the Hon. Jacob Collamer,
L. ;. Postmaster General, on the subject Of
mail charges and accommodations, by letter in
October, I849, and that official promptly made
the needed regulations. In 1852, Mr. Castle
being about 10 proceed to the United States, was
empowered by the Hawaiian Government (by
resolution of the Privy CounciD to make an ar
rangement with the American postal department
for the making up Of separate mail packages for
these islands to come through from New York
city to Honolulu, and vice versa, which was ac-
complished. Much correspondence was had by
Mr.. Castle on the subject of postal matters in
1928, as the San Francisco officials were APP
parently very prone to misconstrue the law, con-
tinuing, in the latter year, to tax newspapers at
the old rate until after repeated instructions from
Mr.. Campbell, the then Postmaster General.
And as late as 1868. it appears that two cents
extra was charged in San Francisco on cur pre-
paid newspapers from the Eastern States, which
was only discontinued after a final appeal from
Mr.. Castle to the Postmaster General.
We cannot doubt but that our Minister Pleni-
potentiary will be met in the same spirit OF
friendly accommodation in his effort to make q
new postal treaty, as we have experienced in the
past from the authorities at Washington. But
in the meantime, let the next Legislature amend
our own postal laws so as to make them some
what on a par with the liberality of those of
other countries, and consistent with what we
propose TO ask from them. For nstance-while
the U. S. postage on single newspapers sent here
is one cent, we charge two cents on the same
paper for receiving and delivering it and on
printed matter other than newspapers, the U. s.
postage being four cents for each ounce, we clap
on eight cents additional, or two cents an ounce.
So that it will be seen we have really more to
complain of at home than abroad, in postal
matters.

If THERE is any one thing for which the Ga
Sete is widely celebrated, it is the misapplicatiOn
of terms. Thus the use of the words { its Gus
tomary obtuse way of putting things" if applied
to itself, would fit admirably. Witness the re-
naming portions Of the editorial of this week
from which those words are quoted. The writer,
(whose style, by the way, has a familiar twang)
is apparently so obtuse-let us charitably assume
AS not to perceive that he is uttering a whole

II. j. Gillen.

This popular emporium will offer during the
next thirty days, extra inducements to purchas-
ers Of winter goods. As is known to our readers
Mr.. Gillcn long since adopted the system of
buying for cash, and giving to his customers
those profits which houses who bought on time
were compelled to make in order to meet inter.
est and discount Of paper when it fell due. The
horde of customers which have thronged his
spacious store for several months past, attest
their satisfaction of the course pursued by him.
and the very liberal patronage which he has re-
ceived since New Years (while others are growl-
ing about no trade) convnces him that the con-
fdencc in his house is so great as to call from
him further reduction. He will therefor prior
to purchasing his spring stock, offer special in
ducements which means low prces-for the
next thirty days, upon all grades OF winter goods.
His store to-day contains as fine a stock from
which 10 select as many of the most pretcntious
have contained during the height OF their fall
trade. Replete with all of the most fashionable
styles in dress goods and wrappings, and NAM
moth in his stock OF domestics he makes the an
nouncament of reduction with that business
determination which charactcrzes the man 4; and
well do our readers know that what II. j. Gilleu
advertises he will perform.
Remember the reduction commences to day,
and lasts until February 18th

w hat il 10 Re Done.

On last Tuesday evening, at the meeting
OF the city council, the matter OF more
thoroughly cquipplng the fire department was
discussed and disposed Of rs follows
Aldcrman King suggested, AID very satisfac
torily demonstrated the ncressty OF purchasing
dvc hundred feet more hose aud some lanterns
Alderman Hook favored the suggestion OF Mr..
King and also favored the purchase OF good
hook and ladder truck. Alderman Stout favored
everything necessary To make the force efficient,
and also urged better supply OF water.
In this steam, with the true interests Of our
homes and business blocks in view, our council,
without a Qissentinq rate, instructed the fire de-
partment committee, N conjunction with the
chief and assistant engineer, to purchase such
additional apparatus u, would make our depart
ment first class.
So far 50 good. The council as Il body re.
sponded to the universal demand of our citizens,
and affirmed its desire to purchase all needed
equipments. Next morning, as the news spread,
we heard more than one expression of approval
Of their action ana our people began to breathe
free again.
In the afternoon, however, (as we arc credibly
informed) when the matter was spoken Of to
portion Of the fire committee, said gentlemen
were imbucd with spirit of economy aud con.
cludee 10 purchase nothing, WIN our people be
content with this? Are councilmen elected to
obey the wIll OF the people or to dictate to them
Are two or five thousand dollars left In the peck
cts of property owners and accumulated out Of
our laboring people Of more value to the whole
city than the security Of our homes? These are
pertinent questions and demand an answer Let
the Insurance coinpenias withdraw their policies
lad wc predict that something more than ecoHo-
my would be talked Of Let the supreme court
house or high school building go down for want
of hose enough 70 reach them and who would
stand the brunt? Unless somcthing is done we
understand that an extra session Of the council
will be called upon to Investigate the conduct OF
somebody.
As We said before, tie council as a body have
done their duty, and now, unless the committee
do theirs, our people viii hold them responsible
fox future great CONGREGATIONS that may oc-
cur Make "A note OF this, gentleman, and stand
from under Our people demand protection

ell to furnish il.
