DEMOCRATIC MEETING In THE FOURTH
WARD.-0n Saturday afternoon the De-
mocracy OF the Fourth Ward, under the
leadership Of Commodore John Boring
and other illustrions patriots, essayed tC
erect pole in honor Of the Confederate
candidates for President and Vice Presi.
dent Of the United, States. Apropos Of
this, it might be added that Uncle John
and his satellites previous to the St.
Louis Convention were devoted followers
OF "OlebillalIen," but have since, with
Democratic-Spartan heroism, swallowed
their share Of crow.
While the pole was being put in its
place, corner 18th and Jacob streets, one
Of the splicings broke and lowered Messrs
Tilden and Hendricks to the ground.
The accident rather dampened the ardor
Of the Democracy, but they will no doubt
make the best Of a bad job and repair the
stick il possible to-day.
The poW-Wow over the new Democratic
tombstone took place in the evening.
The Tilden and Hendricks club OF the
First Ward formed into line, and head.
ed by Kramer's band marched TO the scene
OF the wake in the Fourth Ward. The
procession was a minors procession.
There were about one hundred in line,
and it is estimated that quite eighty-four
per cent Of them we're boys. Arrived
at the corners, where Petroleum V.
Boring, Bascom, Pegram, Gavitt, Bigley
& Co., awaited them, the mourners took
their places about the platform and were
ready for the obsequies to commence.
George Davenport was the first speaker
Since Cicero turned up his toes, there is
no man who can hold a candle to Daven-
port as a brilliant orator. George must
have created an impression somewhere,
as at the conclusion Of his speech a lady
sent him up q beautiful bouquet. Bob
McEldowney should look to his laurels.
Counsellor Davenport Was followed BY
J. J. Woods, All. Caldwell and W. W,
Arnett, late of the Confederate army.
By this time the audience had suffered
90 elegant sufiiciency Of crow, and were
ready TO retire to their several homes.

WE GLADLY improve the opportunity this
morning, to wish our readers, one and all, a
HAPPY NEW YEAR! Eighteen hundred and
seyenty-fye with its record of good or i'll, is now
numbered with the many years which, like
crested waves, swell and curl in this worlds
wake, marking its career over the great sea of
Time. Let us forget the evil that the year may
have done, and remember only the blessings it
has brought. Among nearly all nations, New
Years is a time of merriment and rejoicing, a
day when old quarrels are forgotten and new ones
dismissed, when old friendships are renewed and
new ones formed, when neighbor meets neighbOr
to take the right hand of fellowship. True, to-
day is the memorandum of the subtraction of
another year from the little sum Of our lives, but
if we live as we should it brings us nearer by q
year to the promised good.
The gentle-hearted Ella (Charles Lamb) thus
wrote on the last night of the old year "Of all
sounds of bells, most solemn and touching is the
peal which rings out the old year. never hear
it without a gathering up of my mind to a con-
centration of all the images that have been diff
fused over the past twelve-month; all l have
done or suffered, performed or neglected, in that
regretted time. 1 begin to know its worth as
when q person dies. 1t takes a personal color,
nor was it p~oetical fight in q contemporary,
when he exclaimed

The Greek Christians Of Cappadocia are placing
themselves in n very unfavorable light before the
world. These Christian WORTHLESS ask the Porte to
drive American missionaries out of Cappadocia
lion" If the FIRST Of these charges be true the
missionaries must be doing a good work-spread-
ing the Gospel of truth and the love of our Blessed
Savior among the b%enighted subjects of the Porte.
II these proselytes were being gathered into the
Greek Church we should hear no such unchristian-
like demand from the Greek Christians of Cappa-
docis. That they have made such a petition is
only another of the evidences OF the baleful infu-
ences of Ottoman rule. The talk about melting to
rebellion is merely intended to spur the Porte to
action. If Turkey takes any hand in the expulsion
of American missionaries the United States will
have to speak.

am sure, desire that that salary should be reduced to
a more modest measure. Your m~ajesty's patriotism
would urge you not to wait for any action on the
part Of your subjects. but 10 take the initiative
yourself, and insist upon such 4 reduction bsing
made as would show that you were in earnest. This
being done, what a grand reform would be inaugu-
rated, what a wonderful retrenchnent would ensue,
for none could refuse to follow where Your Majesty

This, Mr.. Editor, or something like II, would be

his country in q state Of Indebtedness and decay

cant a person az the writer; but please do not
mistake me, under no circumstances would I be so
rash and presumptuous as to offer it unlimited.

Anthony Trollope on Hawaii.

This celebrated novelist. who made brief visits to
Honolulu in going to and returning from Australia
last year, writes a series of letters to the Liverpool
Mercury, which, though of course very readable,
are not always accurate as to facts and deductions
Indeed, this could hardly be expected when he writes
of the islands, to which he made only two flying
visits of a few hours each. We quote a few detached
sentences from q letter which appeared Nov. 6:
1.-The Sandwich Islands form another of those
lands as to the destiny of which the world at large,
and especially the English world, is SO much in
doubt"
1.-The Sandwich Islands are tropical, and will
never afford the means of living to any race that has
sprung from European parents. But from the cir
cumstances of its position = = = this spot in
the Pacific Ocean has acquired a certain amount Of
hybrid prosperity, which is almost absurd in its
details and which certainly cannot endure"
Honolulu is unlike, and very superior to, any
other town on the worlds surface which at the
present moment is nOminally under the dominion of
sayages (D"
81 may say that the American element prodomin-
ates. There is a Chief Justice, who is an American.
and two other jndges-1 believe of the same nation.
1t need hardly be said that in this way the Ameri-
cans and English, between them, have invented a
form of government, under which they may be
ruled according to their own wishes without the
exercise Of any nominal protectorate.''

CHRISTMAS.

Year by year the keeping of Christmas is get
ting to be more the fashion in Honolulu, with all
elasses-as it is in fact eyerywhere-and ought TO
he. We can remember the time, and not so very
long ago, when comparatively few made much of
this holiday in these islands, and of the churches
only the Catholics recognized it by a special ser
vice. Now, however, we have happily changed
all this, and the descendants of the Puritans are
as ready to decorate their dwellings and houses OF
worship in honor of Christ's natal day, as any
disciple Of Rome. This year, there was q special
.spraise service in both the Fort and Bethel
Churches on Sunday, while the usual Christmas
services were had at the Roman and Episcopal
Churches, and all were decked with flowers and
eyergreens. The altar of Fort Street Church was
especially noticeable for q rich display of flowers,
interspersed with trays of ripe fruits and thanked
with stalks of sugar ane-the whole emblematic
of the tropical wealth of Hawaiian productions.
Everybody made n holiday of Saturday by
closing places of business and suspending work I;
but it was emphatically the children's day.
Never before were so many toys sold III Honolulu
as during the few days preceding the late Christ
mas. and about all the little ones IN the city
must have received something to cause them to
remember the happy season. Christmas trees
were numerous among families, but a notable
and heavily loaded one was provided at KaWaia-
hao Church for the Sunday School children. AT
one O'Clock, at st. Andrews, occurred the christ
le.-.ng of the infant Princess Victoria, daughter
OF Her Royal Highness Miriam Likelike and the
Hon. AS Cleghorn, and neice of His Majesty
the King. Bishop Willis offciated at the bap-
t;smaI font. which was richly decked with flowers
and ferns, while the Office of godfather was as
sumed by the King and that of god-mother by
the Queen and FL. H. Keelikolani. The church
