The Australian Line.

A report was brought from San Francisco by
the last mail steamer, to the effect that the
Pacific Mail Company had secured the contract
to perform the Australian mail service between
London, Auckland and Sydney, via San Fran
cisco. This is a very welcome item of news,
but needs confirmation, although there is
strong probability that it may be correct
There are no more splendid steamships in the
world than those of this Company, whether we
refer to the propellers or side wheelers. This
Company is known to have sufficient number
of spare boats to commence the service at any
time that their contract may demand, though it
is stated that the vessels now running will
continue four months longer, or till November.
Should they secure the contract, it is quite
likely that this place will become port for
transhipment of mails, passengers and cargoes.
The China boats will probably touch here on
the outward and return passages, and other
steamers will carry the mails, passengers and
freight from this port to Auckland and Sydney,
touching at any immediate places which the
contract may require of them.
This arrangement, should it be perfected, will
be of great advantage to Honolulu, as passen-
gers will have a longer stoppage here and
much better accommodations will be offered to
all, both through and way passengers. In
this way, but three boats will be required to
perform the service between Honolulu, Auck-
land and Sydney. The present steamers in
the China trade can easily perform the work
between this port and San Francisco.
One great advantage which Honolulu will
derive from the contract being awarded to
this Company, will be thatwe shall have steam
communication with San Francisco, Japan,
China, Auckland, Sydney and perhaps with
FIJI and Samoa Islands. We add the last
named group, because it is quite probable that
the American Government will substitute the
line if it will connect with Samoa. No other
arrangement could give SO great commercial
advantages to this group as contract with the
Pacific Mail Company.
By having steam communication with Japan
and China, every facility will be furnished for
immigrants to come to this group, and the pro-
liability is that many would come, especially
after the Reciprocity Treaty goes into force.
In this way we should obtain, in very short
time, all the laborers that our plantations re-
quire. Indeed, they might flock here, to Guilt
vate rice, in too large numbers for the best in
terest of the natives. In that event, we should
have to do as they do in California, impose
tax of some kind to check the immigration
There is very little prospect, however, of any
such necessity.
The next mail will probably decide what
company has been selected to perform the mail
service, out of the four or five bidding for it.
From Colonial papers, we learn that Mr.. H. H.
Hall is still very sanguine of obtaining the
new contract. 1t is said he is working for
his friends, and he certainly shows great per-
severance and pluck.

The apparent increase in the Indebtedness of
the United States and the apparent decrease in
the Indebtedness of the Russian Empire are
due to our having followed on this occasion
different and, we believe, more accurate au-
thority than in 1873. These ten countries,
therefore, owe in the aggregate upwards of
"a, 900, OOO, 900, and have added nearly 10 per
cent. to their Indebtedness during the last ten
years. No other country in the world owes
anything like ElOO,OOO,OOO. The ten next
largest debts stand, we believe, about as fol-
lows Brazil, Es2,OOO,OO9; Holland, $780,
100000; Egypt, s75,OOO, 900; Portugal, $780,
100000; Mexico, E63,OOO,OOO Australian
Colonies, SAC, 900 900; Peru, f37, OOO, 900; Bel
GUM, fs6,OOO,OOO; Hungary, s32, OOO,O 900;
Canada, E3O,OOO,OOO; making total of $780,
OOO, 900. The 20 largest national debts in the
world amount, therefore, in the aggregate, to
"a, 500, 100000. If we add el6O,OOO, 900 for
the smaller debts, the national Indebtedness of
the world must amount to f4,75O,O 100000
1t is nearly as difficult to ascertain the
charges which these debts involve as the
amount of debts themselves. But again taking
in the main the Economist as our guide, we
shall arrive at the following conclusions

seasons, and has likewise won the suffrages Of
all the important critics in Europe and Amer
lea. In person, the lady is a slender blonde,
with delicate features, dark eyes, and wealth
Of golden hair. Her voice is perfectly clear,
true and well trained, reaching easily to F in
alto, which note she gives ont as easily as the
skylark sings its song. Her part in the pro-
gramme comprised ''The Carnival de Venice"
which is, by the way, beautifully arranged for
lima nj Murska, with most elaborate rccita-
tive, convinced the delighted audience that a
singer Of extraordinary power was before them,
and as she went on, bringing fresh bravun
passages, constantly into the boldest relief,
their enthusiasm knew no bounds. The King
rose to compliment her, the people Numbered
out applause The fair singer acknowledged
the royal compliment in the most graceful
manner, and delighted her audience with a
pretty German ballad, GOOD Night my Little
Child" sung in compliment to DIR. Ed. Hoi-
mann, who handed her lovely bouquet. She
impaired to this pretty song every grace of
pathetic expression that perfect knowledge of
her difficult art, and a matchless voice could
bestow A similar state OF excitement follwed
the rendering Of the Hungarian Air, which
was apparently written to defy, rather than to
task the human voice. Mile. di Murska again
gratifed every one by singing "The Last Rose
of Summer" in English. This song, however,
does not suit her style as well as her more
ford music does. The comic duet which con-
cluded the performance was rare treat and
would have been re-demanded, had not the
King set the example of forbearance. Signor
Cesare Ristori, lent his efficient aid in the
duet, and also sang two buffo scenes with
much effect, although his voice shows many
signs of wear. Mr.. Pratt accompanied the
vocalists very nicely, and also played Colts
challl's Mediation remarkably we'll Among
the audience were their Majesties and suite.

The population figures are taken from the
last census report, which do more or less in
justice in most cases. The burden which some
of these debts impose is really frightful. The

tax valuation was out at about 500, OOO, 900,

The debts of these twenty countries alone
impose, then, charge of E1ss,OOO,OOO year
on their inhabitants. If we add Ell ,OOO, 900 or
sl2,OOO,OOO for the unenumerated debts, the
national debts must impose a charge of E2OO,-
100000 on the taxpayers of the world, or of
twice the sum which France, the country with
the largest revenue in the world, is annually
raising.
The rate of interest which these countries
are severally paying on the nominal amount of
their debt must not, of course, be COMPOUNDED
with the rate at which they can now borrow.
Judged by the latest quotations on the Stock
Exchange, some of these may be given as fol-
lows England, 81 per cent; India, per

We endeavored nearly two years ago to give
in these columns an approximate estimate Of
the national debts Of the world. We con-
cluded on that occasion that the Indebtedness
Of the world nigh, be placed at about "a, 2o0,-
100000. During the two years which have
since passed there is good reason to believe
that large addition has been made to this
sum. New countries and old countries vie
with each other in the money markets Of Eu-
rope; and even China has within the last few
weeks commenced national debt There Is
considerable difficulty in asccr,aining the lia-
bilities OF the various nations which are thus
heavily indebted. The annual almanacs give
us some assistance in the mbiecti and tho
careful Information which the Economist pub
fishes in the Investors Manual affords also
considerable help in solving the question. The
following are the best estimates which we can
form Of the principal national debts at the
present time. We have eontrasted them with
the figures which we gave two years ago:

The CONCERT given by Mile. lima Di
Murska at the Kawaiahao Church, June 20, is
a noteworthy event for Honolulu, since the
effect produced by single hearing of so per-
feet a singer, who ranks third or fourth among
living EOcalists, is in every way calculated to
assist in the formation of correct style, and to
improve the taste of the auditors. The famous
Hungarian singer has for the last ten years
been considered the worlds foremost Soprano

don, in 1855, which she repeated in subsequent

THE report of the Treasurer of the Queens
Hospital, showing that the Hawaiian people
have during the last sixteen years collected
and disbursed the sum of sl6s, 1889 for the
relief of its destitute sick, may be pointed to
as the best evidence obtainable of the mature
civilization which prevails in this kingdom.
When to this fact we may add another, that
the project originated solely with the late King
Kamehameha w. and his widow QUEEN EMMA,
who still lives among us, and that it was not
only conceived but perfected by them-no
worthier monument could be desired to per-
petuate the name of its founder. 1t is but
just to add that each of his successors has tax
en- the same pride in this institution that he
did, and that it promises to become each year
more beneficial to the people for whom it was
established, as well as for the relief of desti
tute foreigners of any nation, who may be-
come its wards.

WE publish in another column statement
of the debts of the principal governments of
the world, and the rate of interest paid by
them. But it must be borne in mind that these
rates were fixed when the debts were incurred,
some of them many years since. During the
last few years the demand for money to sup
ply the wants of governments has been so
great, that only those which possess a first
class credit can obtain it at anywhere near
former rates. This will be seen by the closing
statement of the London journal, in which it is
asserted that as high as eighteen per cent is
now paid by at least one government. The
smaller, less stable and less wealthy national
tiles are compelled to pay for such loans as
they may require whatever may be the COM
mercial value of money among them. The
aggregate of these public debts is an enormous
sum; and yet it is much smaller than the total
of the city, state and railroad debts of the
various nations enumerated in the list

France and sIaclIahon.

Despite all the efforts of aristocrats of France,
the rich orleanists, the ambitious Bonapartists,
the Bourbon followers of the Bourbon Count
Chambord (who valued the old Bourbon flag,
its white banner and its white lilies more than
he did the throne), Republicanism apparently
has already achieved triumph, and the young
Prince Imperial, as well as the Count de Paris
and the Count Chambord, have lost the stakes
for which they and their supporters have been
playing. The resignation of the Committee of
Thirty did not lead to a disruption of the
Cabinet and resort, as was threatened, by
MacMahon to an appeal to the Bonapartists
and Orleanists. Had he the influence and power
there would be no Republic in France to-
day. BE may not desire to restore the MOnar-
chy or the Empire, but his course since he was
made Head of the Executive Power has Ger
tainly been anything but friendly toward Re
publicanism. Only popular feeling and senti-
ment have held him in check. Whether he
desired to restore King OF Emperor we do not
know, or if he merely looked to the strengthen
ing of his own powers and establishing sort
of half military dictatorship. But in either
case he failed to carry the masses with him,
and, against his will undoubtedly, the Republic
seems to have come out ahead. 1t may be that
he has been necessary to the success of the
Republic, although opposed to it. He is
soldier, and with the army at his command, he
has been in position to prevent counter re-
volutiOns and Commune uprisings. Gambetta
has worked we'll and his triumnh ia cyraafnr

WE call the attention of the reader to the ia
bic showing the domestic exports for the quar-
ter ending June 3Oth, for which we are indebt-
ed to His Excellency the Minister of Finance.
A decrease appears in the export of sugar,
which is owing to the large amount of this ar
ticle on hand at the end of June, awaiting ship
ment to foreign ports. The decrease in the to-
tai value is not uDfavorable when we take into
consideration the fact that the greater portion
of the sugar has been purchased here, and the
outward manifests at the Custom House show
the true value to the country; while the export
of the same period of last year did not return
to the country on an average within one cent
per pound of the outward value. The selling
of our produce here, before shipment, is the
only safe plan for our planters and agricultur-
lists to adopt. This is the way in which the
sugar crop of Mauritius is always sold, and the
way in which the coffee, tobacco and sugar
crops of the East and West Indies are sold.
The producer should always shun the risk at
tending the sale of his produce in a foreign
market

Hrs ExcKLLENcY the Minister of the Into

Hawaii, during which he found near kappa
kuca a poor native family, consisting Of a

In such case as this, the government should
adopt these children and their mother as its
