The HAwAIIAS TREArY.-Ii is reported that Secretary
Sherman has been carefully Informing himself as to the work
ing and results Of the Hawaiian Treaty, and finds that the
United States has been losing several thousand dollars thereby.
Mr. Sherman opposed the Treaty, in the first place, and his pres
et attitude, as reported, seems more a desire 10 sustain his
own political wisdom than a desire to benefit the
country. There are other interests TO be consulted in sustain
ing a Government and caring for the good OF the people, than
in adding up and subtractiug the sums paid or received at the
Custom House. The Hawaiian Treaty has been a great bene-
fit to many people on this Pacific Coast, as well as to Hawaii,
and the Government and people have received many advan-
tages from il. Meanwhile. the benefits arising are continually
increasing, and ere long, even by figures of dollars and cents,
it Will be found that the Treaty is a good one.-AHG CaEi6or-
mia, NOU 20.

CHRISTMAS MEATs.-The quality of fresh beef sold
in the markets Of this city has been for some time past a
matter Of general coDIlaint- The fault has not however
been with the but-hers, for most OF the cattle on this
Island, owing to the poor pasture, have been for & long
time as poor as a downstream shsd. On Christmas eve.
however, some extra fat cattle were slaughtered BY
Waller Of the 4" Family and Holt Of the - City markets,
and their customers were Hberauy provided with tender
and juicy steaks and roasts Fine displays were also
made Of fat turkeys and granted fowls. Walters fat
bullock came from Parker's herds on Hawaii, and Hollis
from his own flock on this Island. Then we had ssusages,
too, on Christmas morning-not the usual tasteless, ques-
tionable article manufactured by the Chinese pork
butchers, but genuine. welI-seasoned, old-fashioned sau-
sases, manufactured for the special occasion by an old
hand. who learned how to mix the ingredients many years
ago in the State Of New York. It was t~wenty-six years
since he made sausages and sold them in Honolulu, but
it is evident he has not forgot the knack. We hope to be
on hand when he tries again.
