Syrup

Ia q medicine that was discovered by old NURSE
BERTRAND, who had been occupiedin sick rooms and
with the care Of sick people, for over fifty years. It
is made purely and entirely OF Plants, Herbs
and Roots, and IS exceedingly agreeable and
pleasant to both the taste and smell, being warm,
aromatic and spicy. II Is q most thorough purge,
cleaning ont the bowels without pain, and without
nausea or sickening. 1t does not weaken, and leaves
the system open and frec, never dryingup the bowels
afterwards, as every other purge that We know OF
docs. Il can be given to infants and invalids with
safety, and in every case Of old or young, it is guaran-
teed to cure the worst cases OF constipation, indiges-
ton, and all diseases that affect thesstomach and
bowels. It is, moreover, q powerful stimulator and
INvEGOESATOR OF THE LIVER. Its
effects upon the blood and humors is something real
ly astonishing, and IS much more immediate and
thorough than that of any other purifier yet discov-
cred, having this great advantage, that when il has.
byl;s depurating powers, set fec in the system the
poisons OF Scrofula, Salt Rheus, Malignant Ulcerous
Sores. and Cancerous gatherings or Jumps, it instant
y carries them ont OF the body by purging the bow
sls. No other purifier docs this; with all of them
the patient must take pills, or some other equally
nauseous dose Of physic. or il they do not, the poison
remains IN the system. and goes back into the blood.
REUTERS LIFE SYRUP is exceedingly
pleasant 10 take, needs no second dose to purge the
bowels, and does all the work required 10 effect CON-
plete cure.

ExGLAND's OPINION OF THE LAW.

ENGLAND , OflNlON VI III LAW.
The British Government having intimaIed to
this Government that it looked upon this increase
Of duties, levied on English goods under this law
to meet deficiencies arising in revenue from the
reciprocity treaty with the United States. as an
unfriendly act toward her, and in violation of her
treaty stipulations with this Government, the Ha-
law. and placed the duties at the anti-reciprocity
standard again.
1 have given you as cOncisely as l can the rela-
tive financial results of the operation of the treaty
between this and our country.
INCIDENTAL.
One incidental gain from the treaty to this
country l have not mentioned. Since the ratif-
cation OF the treaty the price of real estate, in the
aggregate. has advanced 81 per cent, and sugar
aud rice-lands 100 per cent. Half of one sugar
plantation at Lahaina. Island of Maui, sold at
$500.e00 since the ratification of the treaty, that
could not have been sold before at $3.50. 600 :;
and this is only one instance of many sales at this
advanced rate.
POLITICAL ASPECT.
1t has been said that this treaty and large out
lay OF money may be n wise stroke of policy on
the part Of the United States-that it may be pre-
pairing the way for the ultimate occupancy or
possession Of the Islands by the United States.
As / am not a diplomat it might be thought out of
my province TO discuss this phase OF the question
but as it seems to be involved in your inquiry, /
will give my views briefly.
In the four years that | have been residing here
/ have been giving some attention to this ques-
ton, and must confess that l am unable to con-
cieye OF any emergency or state of things, now or
in the future. in which it would be to the interest

SAID NOT To BE A LOSS TO THE UNITED STATES.
1t is said by interested parties here that it is
absurd to claim that the United States loses the
duty on the increased importations from this
country, as, without the treaty, there wonld have
been no increase of importations on which the
United States could levy a duty. This might APP
pear plausible were it not for the fact that, if this
country imported less of her free products under
the treaty, other countries would import more to
fill mp the deficiency and pay the duties thereon.
In this event, the United States would save the
duty. Why, in the other case. the United STATES
do not lose the duty, / cannot see.
The Pacific commercial advertiser. [volume] (Honolulu, Hawaiian Islands) 1856-1888, 1879-04-05

You will see by the foregoing statement that tn,
amount of duties RENTED b. the United States OF
Hawaiian products, under the treaty, in 1877, il
$l5,66 90 greater than the invoice value OF tbt
excess OF goods imported from the United State!

OUR Loss

/ remember, when the treaty was under con-
sideratioD, 1T was urged in favor of its adoption
that the increase of expectations from the United
States TO these Islands would remunerate us for
the duty RENTED but, SO far, the results have
not demonstrated this theory to be correct, nor
will they in the future for, while the impOrta-
tions to this country from the United States may,
and | have no doubt will, increase TO some extent
every year during the continuance of the treaty,
the increase will fall Tar short of the increase in
the expectation of the products of this country to
the United States, / would not be astonished, from
the enlargement of old and the opening OF new
plantations, if the expectations of sugar, rice, and
paddy from this country would be more than
doubled in two years hence over what it was in
The Pacific commercial advertiser. [volume] (Honolulu, Hawaiian Islands) 1856-1888, 1879-04-05

L append hereto a statement of the relative benefits
of the treaty to the United States and this country in
the first year Of its operation, ending September 9,
1877, in q little different form from the one given
in the former part of this report for the year ending
December 81, 1877. marked Sc Enclosure No. 2"
1 think l can safely say, in closing this report,
tries, has been imported into this Kingdom from
other foreign countries, or from the United States,
since the ratification of the treaty, unless the sugar
Of which | send you q sample be unrefned.
The large expectation of sugar and rice the first
year after the taking effect Of the treaty, l think,
can be explained by the importation and expectation
Of the Hawaiian sugars and rice before named in
bond, and the holding back of these products in ex-
pectancy of the passage of the treaty, as well as
some increase in the production.
Should at any time detect anything having the
appearance of fraud under the treaty, l will at once
give notice of il.
Very truly yours. J. SCoTT, U. S. Consul.
