Taboo

To he Editor of the Pacific Commercial Advertiser:
The Hawaiian nation is a Christian nation. So
men affirm, and so its laws declare. Yes, zoe are a
Christian people. We have a law defining the
Lords day thus The Lords day, within the mean
ing of the provisions of this chapter, is the first day
of the week, and includes the time between the
midnight preceding, and the midnight following
said day" The law thus defining the Lords day
states explicitly what things are taboo on the day
1.-The Lords day is taboo; All worldly business,
amusements, and recreations are forbidden on that
day; and whoever shall keep open his shop, store,
ware house, or work shop, or shall do any manner
of labor, business, or work except only works Of
necessity, and charity, or be present at any dancing,
public amusement, show or entertainment or take
part in any game, sport. or play on the Lords day,
shall be punished by fine not exceeding ten dollars"
The officers whose duty it is to execute this law are
designated Cali Marshalls, Sherifs, Constables,
and all public officers, SHALL inquire into. and in
form Of all ofenses in violation of the provisions
of this chapter, and SHALL cause the same to be car
ried into effect" Be it remembered too, that these
officers have taken an oath to execute these laws.
Yet, on this taboo day the Band, paid by this Christ
ian nation from funds received from this Christ
ian people, was ordered to do that which de-
stroyed the peace Of a majority of the people of this
city, to do honor, 1t is said, TO those who have no
respect for our laws any further than these laws can
be used to accomplish their own ends.
With your consent Mr.. Editor, l would ask the
following questions By whose authority was the
peace of this ommunity destroyed. and the above
laws ignored on the last Lords day?' Where
were those, who have taken a solemn oath to execute
these laws, when goods, curios, and exchange were
being sold on this " taboo day?'' Puritan Puritan
or not, here is the law on the statute book OF this
Christian nation. Is the law to be executed or mott
Let US know, then we may prepare for what may
come. The American Philosopher, Ben. Franklin,
said in speaking on a kindred subject, You had
better not unloose the tiger" This Philosopher had
studied human nature; was NO puritan, as that
term is now used. If some, who admire the man,
would give better heed to his maxims it would be
well for themselves, for this Christian nation, and
for the world. Z.
-FOUR correspondent is in error in stating that the
police are sworn generally to execute the laws. The
Ministry are so sworn however, and the police are
under the control of the Attorney General-one of
the Ministers. The Marshal holds his commission
from the King; all other members of the police force
on this island are appointed by the Goyernor.-ED.

Mr.. EDITOR What further proof is necessary of
" the advanced state of civilization here ?" The
Governor of the Island of Oahu has demonstrated it
by causing the Royal Band to play on the wharf on
Sunday afternoon This was done to "aford the
best evidence of the advanced state of civilization
here'' to the strangers. passengers per Granada,
and also to give them ga happy memory Of this
place"
1t is really assuring to see such proofs of vigor
and decision in the War Department What may We
not expect in case of a second mutiny at the Bar
racks or another election riot7
The Governor is now alive to the situation. What
are laws or public opinion to him ! He is backed by
the Gazette and that is, apparently, enough.
The Pacific commercial advertiser. [volume] (Honolulu, Hawaiian Islands) 1856-1888, 1876-04-08

Mr.. EDITOR - There may be some sensible
grounds for argumen in favor of a through line of
steamers, coaling and taking on freight on the
Sabbath, and also of passengers taking passage {;
but is there any necessity for such a crowded
noisy, musical, hurrahing time as we had of it last
Sunday? Let ne assure you, that many good peo-
pie have expressed deep regret at the demonstra-
ton. And it can not be doubted that not n few OF
those taking passage, were not a little annoyed at
the prominence given to their Sabbath embarking.
But however out of fitness the demonstration
itself may be thought to have been, especially
when some in the band have no sympathy with
such Sabbath display, 1 think l may say that there
is yet greater surprise and regret that the Gazette,
supposed to be conducted by Christian gentlemen,
should puff the whole performance and seemingly
endorse the sentiment, that it was " the best evi-
dence that a stranger could wish of the advanced
state Of civilization here LEX.

England and Washington,

An English correspondent writes AZ follows 10 the
editor Of the London Times:
Sir: The Board Of Works seem to be at n loss for
a name for the new and important thorougbfare be-
tween Chaung Cross aud the Victoria Emb~ankment.
/ would suggest tbatit be called Washington street
or place, In honor Of one Of the best and brayest
men that The English race has ever produced.
Cromwell knocked about King, men and loyal prln-
ciples much more ru1hlessly and with far less rea-
son than ever did George Washington; aud now one
Of the lnest avenues in tho West End Of London
bears bis name. George Washington, after n fair
and gallant Geht, headed a nation which In all hu-
maa possibility, could not have become onetentb
part so great and prosperous under the old system,
and the result has led TO 10 entire a change in our
mode OF governing our other colonies that the old
home has been vastly strengthened by the event.
In blood and language, In religion and laws, in
wholesome vigor, and 10 the peaceableness which
accompanies true strength, we are one; and I look
for #, not dreamingly. that 10 the future means will
be found, withent disturbing special institutions, 10

interest oftwo nations, who,inherit jointly'the proud
and stirring memories Of a thousand years.

once common Government will rise simultaneously

which we regard the transatlantic celebration. Lcs

~RATs.-Perhaps a former Minister of the Interior
who put a stop to {" rat batting in Honolulu was
conscientious in so doing, but we feel convinced that
had he allowed the sport to go on We should not to-
day be so plagued as we are with the pests that over
run our houses and seriously damage our crops.
We know of some sugar plantations where one per-
son is constantly employed solely in killing rats at
a stipulated price for each dead rodent, and a force
of terrier dogs is a necessary sppanage to every
cane or corn plantation.

STAEBING AFFRAY.-Last Saturday night a friendly
spree between two sailors ended in a %stabbing match.
One received a cut on the neck, which, with a slight
divergence of the knife, would have sent him to his
grave, but happened not to be serious; the other got
a severe stab just below the fifth rib, and was thought
for a day or two to be in danger, but is likely to get
over it. The last was sent to the hospital, and his
chum went to prison to await trial. Meantime they
have lost their ship, (the bark Camden) which has
gone to sea without them.

A SEVERE ACCIDENT.-We regret to learn from
Maui that Mr.. Henry Baldwin met with a very
severe accident at his sugar mill in Hamakua-poko
on Thursday the 30th ult. His right hand was
caught between the rollers of the mill, and before
the machinery could be stopped the arm was drawn
in completely crushing it halfway to the elbow.
The engineer, who was fortunately near at hand,
reversed the machinery, and the arm was extricated.
DR.. Mofitt, from Waikiki. was in attendance in hour
and 20 minutes, and amputated the arm between the
elbow and shoulder. Mr.. Baldwin bore the pain of the
crushing and the subsequent amputation with re-
markable nerve and f~ortitude, and his numerous
friends will be glad to learn that he is doing as well
as could be expected.

We copy the following from the Queensland Times,
of a late date. MoIasses is cheap here; cannot we

ment, which appear to be very suitable for the for
nation of f~oOtpaths has recently been shewn to us.
1t consists of common river sand with a slight sprink-
ling of lime mixed to the consistency of ordinary
mortar, by using molasses instead of water. The
concrete thus formed hardens on exposure to heat,
TO such an extent that a hammer and chisel are re-
quired to cut it after being exposed for any length of
time to the heat of a battery fire, and whilst admira-
bly, suited to the building of furnaces, it is also thor
oughly impervious to the action of water, and would
therefore, no doubt, be valuable in the improvement
Of the ~fOotpaths in our principal thoroughfares. As
its efficiency in this direction might be ascertained
for a few shillings, it would be well worth a trial.

POISONED THROUGH DRINK-Last Sunday a Rus
sian. a seaman on board the otter hunter schooner
Fanny, lying in the harbor, drank a quart or more
of alcohol which he found in a demijohn in the cabin.
Probably several quarts of pure alcohol wouldn't do
the average Russian much harm; but this happened
to be prepared with strichnyne, intended for the
preservation of specimens, and the consequence was
that he died shortly after drinking it, and was buried
on Monday.

CONCERT AT THE HoTEL.-The spacious dining
hall of the Hawaiian Hotel was pretty well filed on
Monday evening last, to listen to a concert of vocal
and instrumental music rendered by the residents of
this city as a complimentary benefit to the talented
singer Miss Atlanti. That well-known master of
the piano, DR.. Hoffman,, with Miss Castle, (whose
execution is really wonderfully gave the overture,
from 9 S~emiramide;' after which 'Eppure 0 Nice
a solo from Donizetti, was excellently well sung by
Miss Atlanti, accompanied on the piano by Mr..
Berger. Next came Hawthorne's Whispering
Hope a duet by Mrs. Patty and Mrs, Dickson, acr
companied by Miss Castle on the piano,-beautifully
rendered. A selection from Faust, artistically rem
dered by Mr.. Barnard on the violin and Miss Castle
on the piano, was the more remarkably satisfactory
when it is stated that the lady saw the music for the
first time only on the previous day. The solo from
Trovatore, by Mrs. Patty, called forth enthusiastic
applause. as in fact did all the singing by that lady
our musical critics. The solo, &c The message from
the German, by Miss Boyd, We have heard pro-
