THE RESULTS OF THE SESSION.

The Legislative Assembly just adjourned,
when compared with its predecessor of 1876,
has been a working one and although there
may be much that has been left undone which
many will think might have been done, vet
when we remember the materials of which the
law-making body is composed and the labor that
is necessarily imposed upon the working few
of the members, the results of the session will
be conceded to show some degree of national
progress. The session lasted seyenty-eight days
that of 1876 fully FIVE months. Forty-four
bills were passed during the session just closed,
thirty-two of which have received the Royal
sanction, and will become laws, at the expira-
tive Of ten days after their publication. This

unnecessary delay. The following is a list of

The English and Austrian Governments could
not be ignorant of the reat discomfort among the
people, SO plainly manifested and Beaconsfeld
and Andrassy improved the opportunity to take
decided stand in the ettlement of rhe Eastern
question, for it is now conceded that the conces-
sions made by Russia we're Influenced in a great
measure by the disturbed social condition of that
country. 1t is thought The Emperor believes it the
more prudent course at present to sacrifice some
what of military prestige and glory, and seek to
pacify and reconcile the uneasy and dangerous
elements and ideas now SO extensively prevalent,
and which threa,en such serious consequences in
the not distant future and that to this prudent
intention on the part of the Russian Government
may be attributed The moderation displayed by it
at the Berlin Conference. OF Russia determi-
nation eventually TO carry out her ~favorite policy

try again and sgin, until this great object of her
ambition is accomplished.

RUSSIA N NIHILISM.

When a nation, flushed with the victories of a
recent campaign, enters the council chamber with
it's peers, it would not be strange if it yielded
with reluctance the glory of its struggle and the
fruits of its sacrifices at the bidding Of those who
had taken no part in the war. Russia at the
Berlin Congress, has thus yielded, and the world
has been puzzled at the reason why. At the
opening and during the continuance of the Turk
ish campaign, the diplomatic intercourse of the
Russian Government with those Powers which
sought to mediate between it and the Sublime
Porte was characterized by great boldness and
decision, almost approaching to arrogance, and
that boIdness and decision would seem to have
been well assumed, for at the close of the struggle
Turkey lay a suppliant at the feet eff her con-
queror.
Russia appeared at the great council with the
laurel of victory upon her brow, and it was but
reasonable to expect that her language would
comport with the ~triumphs she had won.
A little before this time, an extraordinary
affair occurred at st. Petersburg, which seems to
have really had an important influence upon the
course of events. An attempt was made to
assassinate General Trepoff, Chief of the Russian
Police, by a lady named Miss Vera Zassoulitch. a
victim of political persecution. She had been
subjected to police surveillance and illegal impri-
sOnment fer nine years. On her trial for the
attempted assassination, she gave as a reason for
the deed that Trepof was too much of monster
to live. She had witnessed in prison his cruel
treatment of political prisoners, and declared that
he was guilty of deliberate murder by and
through the severity of the prison discipline, and
she constituted herself, like the executioner Of
Marat, the avenger of innocent blood. She was
acquitted by the jury, amid the plaudits of those
present, and was Immediately adopted as a popu-
lar heroine. This acquittal by a jury selected
from the middle classes showed the Emperor and
Government that society in the Empire was in a
dangerous condition. /
This attempt upon the life of Trepoff, and the
subsequent attacks upon the Emperor of

To The Editor Of the Pacific Commercial Adrertiser:
Me-. EDIToR,-The GG=slts has so often shown a
want of tact, that it appears almost useless TO at
tempt to convince it of its mistaken course. Never
theIess, when that paper speaks i'll of a person that
is absent, you will no doubt readily open your
columns for o few words Of criticism.
I refer to the article about Mr.. W. NJ. Gibson,
contained in last Wednesdays issue of the Gazette.
Abiding to the appropriations for 4 medical work
for Hawaiian use, and for q bronze statue of Kane
bsmeha l., it says "With these adjuncts he (Mr.
Gibsou) goes East to spend a year, it is said but it
/. epident that the Hawaiian Treasury must foot the
hill of expense Of this very unselfsh patriot" Al
tbou1b the editor gives no evidence to prove his
assertion. still the reader is supposed to take his
uord for the truth of the tateme whereby the
vboIe assumes the character Of a mischievous insinu-
o,;on calculated to iDjure the individual alluded to.
Doas not this border on black-mailing,-of which
mill now our pepers have kept themselves free?
fortunately, Mr.. Editor, 1 happen to know that
Az Gibson travels at his own expense, and takes the
change by the advice of his physician and I also
-, assure you that he derives no emolument from
chi. Government, either directly or indirectly, and
has no control of funds appropriated by the Legisla-
tive Assembly for public purposes.
tt is unnecessary for me to dwell on Mr.. Gibson's
course as a legislator and statesman. His actions as
sncb are before the community at large but 1 VEN
ture to say that none, unless BIASED by personal
motives. will Join N the uncharitable and uncalled-
Co. remarks contained in the Ga-ette'S article
spoken of.
With these few words l shall dispose Of this mat
latter. If Mr.. Gibson was here himself, he might
Il occasion to speak to the editor of the Gazette

To The EiitOr0f the Pacific Commercial Advertiser.
DEAR SIR,-I have lately received some jute
seed from tht East Indian Government, and as /
am very ANXIOUS to have that article cultivated on
these Island. and to see it on the list of exports,
firmly belie'ing that it will be of immense value
to the future prosperity of the country, l wish to
have the different portions OF the Islands tested as
to their adptabiiity to the growing of the plant;
and if any person or persons will make application
to me by mil, l will take great pleasure in send
ing them a package Of the seed, and all | ask is
that they report to the ADVERTISER or Gazette the
success of their experience. l have gathered seed
from the plant in -four months from time Of sOwing.
If the Government will set aside a sum of money
to introduce and foster its culture, and appoint a
suitable man to take charge of the same, | will
turn over enough seed TO ensure in a short time, if
well taken care of, The addition of jute to our ar
ticles ofeXport.
Trusting that [ shall soon have the pleasure of
distributing some of he seed, and that from this
germ will grow big results.
| am, dear Sir, respectfully yours, \
