The situauron i'm Asia.

THE Russians have sustained severe if
not a crushing defeat in Asia, and there is
even ground for the conclusion that their cam
paign in that region must be regarded as
failure altogether, so far as this years opera
tions are concerned. If the siege of Kars has
not yet been raised, it is evident that it must
be almost Immediately, since the recent sue
cesses of Mukhtar Pasha have set free force
far larger than the besiegers can oppose to it,
independently of the garrison of the fortress.
The report that the Gar has directed the re
call of General Melikoff, the commander of
the Russian Army of the Caucasus, confirms
the general impression that the campaign has
been disastrous to the Muscovite arms, while
the silence of the st. Petersburg dispatches
upon the statements of Mukhtar Pasha gives
10 these assertions force they would not
otherwise deserve. The Russians appear to
have suffered in all ways, indeed. A late re-
port is to the effect that the Kurdish irregular
horse have cut up the Cossacks terribly, har-
RAISING them with surprises and night attacks,
and inficting heavy losses upon them. The
attempted rising in the Caucasus does not ap-
pear to have amounted to much, but it is pro-
bable that the Russian reverses will encourage
the mountaineers 10 renew efforts and they
may embarrass the retreat of Melikoff con-
siderably The sudden reversal of the situa-
tion in Armenia has surprised the world,
which had prepared itself for the speedy cap
ture of Erzeroum, and the practical conquest
of Asia Minor by the Russians. 1t is now the
more necessary that the Gar should strike
effective blows upon the Danube, but events
have thus far tended to demonstrate that the
Sick Man possesses u good deal of vitality
yet, and that the partition of Turkey may not
be quite so facile business as the diplomat
lists thought it few months ago.-.Sdc. Union.

pointed out, not only by the two leading
journals of this city, but by the Chamber oil
Commerce. But the Government could see
nothing but deficit of revenue, which it was
determined to make up by taking from one OF
Uncle Sans pockets an equivalent of what it
was necessary to place in the other, as well
as by increased internal taxes and obnoxious
stamp duties.
Although this new tariff law has not yet
gone into effect, it is already evident that 1t
will cause trouble, not only with the United
States to whom it may well appear almost in
the light of an intended insult, but with other
foreign nations, whom it should always be
our policy to conciliate. We would suggest,
as the simplest way of rectifying the mistake
we have made, that the Legislative Assembly
be convened immediately-there are yet two
months before the law is TO take effect, and
that it be repealed, and wiped off from onr
Statute book. This we can well afford TO dc
pecuniaril5, Independent of motives of policy,
as it appears that the bugbear of an made
quate revenue will be effectually laid by the
income from stamps and increased taxation.
The Hawaiian gazette., 1877-08-08
ourselves

"IT is rot probable that any opposition to the
Hawaiian Treaty will take shape on the Pacific
Coast il there is general participation in its bene-
fits by the people here. Its opponents chiefly in
the Atlantic States and in ordes 10 take the weapons
out Of their hands and to strengthen the hands Of
friends il is desirable that the Hawaiian Govern
ment and People should show that they not un-
mindful of the benefits, present and prospective,
which this ong-soughtfor treaty eonfers they heing
evidently the chief beneheiAries."
The above extract from the last sugar cir
cular of Messrs Williams, Blanchard 6. Com-
pany, for the Hawaiian Islands, furnishes a
suggestion which is worthy of careful thought
Without discussing the question of the mu-
tuality of reciprocity involved in this treaty,
no one viii deny that it was boon which
Hawaii earnestly desired, and although in the
case of our powerful neighbor, its existence
or its non-existence, its accomplishment or its
failure, may be alike matters of indifference
because its effect upon her vast commerce is
as but drop more or less in the bucket, to US
it is a serious thing. The treaty here means
progress, prosperity, and wealth Should it
be dissolved, commerce and agriculture would
suffer, and reign of listless retrogradation
WOulO ensue-
Look at the question as we will, it is evil
dent that there is an Indebtedness on our part
to the United States for the favor they have
granted us, and if we cannot do anything to
repay thie Indebtedness, we can at least
evince our appreciation of it. We can refrain
from acts which might indicate that instead of
gratitude, spirit of sOrdid meauness inspires
US. Such an act was the passing of the new
tariff law by the last legislature; ministerial
measure which, as an exhibition of indiscreet-
ness and lack of craftsmanship, can hardly
be paralle.ed, even in this country. By its
passage we said in effect to the United States
Government, "you have compelled us to re-
nit the duties on certain articles in considera-
tion of furnishing US with free market for
our sugar. favor you might have done for
nothing; but we will get even with you.
You shall hereafter pay hundred and fifty
per cent. and even higher duties on the fol-
lowing list of goods (see the law, Section
and p thar you have paid heretofore" This
law was opposed, and its probable evil results
