The War.

THE war (says the Sacramento Union) still
drags heavily, both in Europe and Asia. The
extreme jealousy with which the Russians
guard their communications renders it i'm
possible to obtain any trustworthy intelli-
gence from their headquarters; and the
systematic mendacity of the Turks deprives
their statements of good deal of their inter
est and significance. The indications are,
however, that the Russians in Asia have re-
ceived some kind of check, and that they have
thus far failed in repeated and desperate and
costly assaults upon Kars, the defense of
which is being conducted in an extremely
spirited manner. 1t is rumored that Mukhtar
Pasha has received reinfoIcements to the ex-
tent of twenty battalions, though the news
requires confirmation. All that is positively
known is chat the Russians have not vet made
their threatened advance upon Erzeroum, and
that by the renewed vigor of their attacks
upon kars they seem to exhibit a fear lest
their base should be intercepted There are
reports OF treacherY among the Turkish COM
nanders: always an ominous sign, for they
indicate the discovery of incompetency and
lnethclency too late. Just so the French
cried nous SommeS h'dbis when their military
organization collapsed under the pressure of
the German assault. The beaten party in
war is in fact always apt to excuse himself
by conjuring up the phantom of Treason. On
the Danube great preparations are still pro-
ceeding, but no decisive movement has been
commenced. The Russians are apparently
resolved to do nothing in a hurry, and their
movements are so leisurely that almost any
other army than the Turks would have made
the passage of the Danube impossible by this
time. As it is, the undertaking threatens to
cost much life, and what may follow upon it
Is very uncertain.

In another column will be found the decision
of the Justices of the Supreme Court in the
case of the bark "Mary Belle Roberts, This
case has excited unusual interest, not only
here but in San Francisco, from the fact that
the captain of the bark has long and favorably
been known to all engaged in the trade be-
tween this port and San Francisco. There
can be no doubt that the bark is legally and
rightfully held responsible in this case for the
attempt to smuggle contraband article; but
at the same time the fine imposed by the
Government has been thought to be excessive
The object of the law is to suppress an Illegal
traffic, which has been doing more than any
other one thing to decimaie the native Ha-.
waiians, but which is now happily checked !;
and all parties implicated in violating the law
should be made to feel IFS power If the fine
imposed (S4,OOO) is excessive, the Minister
has the power to reduce it. The report, cur-
rent few days since, that demand had been
received from Washington to release the YES
sci, is not correct. A despatch has been re-
ceived, relative 10 the seizure of the bark and
the fine imposed on her, but it is not in the
nature of demand. In response TO the
courteous request of the American Minister
Resident, the case has been re-considered
and the fine reduced.

A CORRESPONDENT, whose letter is in ano-
ther column, opportunely asks whether our
treaty can be annulled by any action of Con-
cases. There can be no question that treaty
between two nations cannot BE- terminated bV
either party during the period for which it has
been made, except for violation of its pro-
visions. Our reciprocity treaty partakes of
the same nature as treaty of amity and
peace, and solemnly declares that it 4" shall
remain in force seUea years" King Kalakaua
and his Legislature approved of this provi-
sion. President Grant, the U. S. Senate, and
the House of Representatives, each approved
of it with all its obligations for a SeceR years
term. The House of Representatives will not
stultify itself and stain the national honor by
seeking to break faith with Hawaii, and if it
did, the Senate, which at two sessions fully
debated its provisions and endorsed them,
would never sanction such a step. The ma
tional honor and faith of the American people
is pledged to Hawaii for seven years, as it
was pledged to Canada for the same term, and
though the Canadian treaty was strongly op-
posed by many, it remained in force the entire
term it was agreed for, and two years longer,
and would not then have been terminated but
for the aid and sympathy extended by Canada
to the rebels. This alone caused its abrupt
termination during the civil war. For these
reasons We think that no efforts that may
be made to annul it can prove successful
but we fully believe that it will remain in
force seven years at least.

VIZ publish to-day, on our fourth page, the
text of the letter of Secretary Sherman ad
dressed to the Collector of Customs at San
Francisco, relative to the admission of sugar
above No. 20, Dutch standard, into the ports
of the United States, free under the treaty.
The conclusion arrived at by Secretary Sher-
man canno: be matter of surprise, as he
naturally gives the benefit of whatever doubts
may have seemed to exist in the question to
that party whose interests it is his duty to
caro- for. But it is thought by many, both on
the Coast and at these Islands, that if the
matter should be referred to the competent
Judicial tribunal that quite opposite eonclu-
sions would be arrived at.

Mr.. J. B. Houston, executive officer Of the
Pacific Mail Company in New York. arrived
here on the steamer City of Sydney, and
while in port settled with the Hawaiian
Government the terms under which the steam
service promises to be permanent The
contract is substantially as follows: The
service will continue as at present until De-
cember next, when it will be changed to semi
monthly. For this purpose small steamer
(perhaps the Costa Rica) will be despatched
monthly from San Francisco to Honolulu, re-
turning from this port with freight and pas
sengers. The Australian boats will continue
to call as now, will remain in port at least six
hours of daylight, and a specified number of
state-rooms (l0) are to be reserved for Honolu-
lu passengers on each trip from Sydney to San
Francisco. In consideration of these conces-
sions, this Government will pay tie subsidy
voted by the Legislature, and there is very
little question that it will be permanently
voted, as the more intelligent representatives
have always supported the measure We con-
gratulate the public ON this termination of the
steamer question, as it secures to US in
creased privileges, and, in short, all that has
been asked for by the most exacting. The
carrying trade as well as the travel is increas-
ing so rapidly that this steam line will at once
secure large and profitable business, at the
same time that the service must help to de-
velop the resources of the islands, We have
for several years stubbornly advocated plac-
ing the steam service on firm subsidized
basis, and now feel pride in seeing the mea-
sure accomplished. Tahiti has just concluded
q contract with parties in San Francisco,
under which she is to receive her mails
monthly by sailing vessels, paying $4,000
per annum for five years. If Tahiti can pay
that sum for such a service, we surely can
afford to,pay $4,000 or even $4,000 for
seni-montELy steam s-1-rics in as fine ships as
ply on this or any other ocean. All who have
aided in securing the continuance of our steam
service-and among them cur friend Major

San Francisco, was very active in the mat
