the country has made more real progress in
material PROSPERITY than during any twenty
years previous 20 1874.
We ID not say this in disraTagcmcut OF those
who have passed away they were wise and
abe, but did not see their OPPORTUNITY, or seeing
did not improve. They sent Envoy aficr Envoy
10 make a Treaty Of Reciprocity, bat always
failei Of success Tic prospects for the future
Of our agricultural inte.ests-thc true basis Of
any couniry's prospcTIty-were gloomy enough.
Our sugar enterprises, upon whose success the
whole fabric Of our industries and even Of the
government depended after the withdrawal Of
the whaling heet-were nearly ali on the down
grade, or threatening soon to become Sd. Such
was the situation IN 1874.
On the 18th Of October of that year, eight
months after His Majesty accession, Messrs.
Allen and Carter were dispatched to the United
States, 70 renew Negotiations for 4 Reciprocity
Treaty, the accom plishment of which it was
felt was the only thing that would save the
country from bankruptcy. One month there
after the King himself sailed for the United
States on the L. ;. ;. Benecia. returning on the
Flagship Pensacola on the 18th of February
following, one year after bis accession. While
every praise and credit is accorded to the ENJOYS
for their faithful and untiring labors in securing
the Treaty, there can be no doubt that the visit
of His Majesty to the United States in the
interests of the Treaty and the impression he
made upon the people and rulers Of that country.
were greatly Instrumental in securing for us its
final adoption. No one needs to be told that
without that Treaty-which His Majesty by his
personal e%xertions in making a journey. to a
distant I0n1 = ~ The Ia,I ~ rn1-Ao- ,-o= 49,
mental in obtaining-we should not to-day see SO
many new agricultural enterprises springing up
on all the Islands, nor hear the busy hum Of
various industries on every hand.
Aside from other benefits to the country at
large which we might enumerate as the results
Of the fret five years Of the present reign, we
submit that the nation has ample reason to
the Accession Day Of King KALAKAUA.

The comfortable conditions of climr'o
government for which TER oH.-.ae ana
tnl5h Country is celebrated,
and which cause life in the Hawaiian Islands to
afford n rather enviable contrast to the hardships
Of other lands, are apt under some circumstances
to become a source of danger. So constantly
arc We favored by the health bearing breezes of
the tradc-wind that Hawaii is almost famous for
the restoration Of inyalids who seek it from other
climes, and for the longevity of those who come
here without previously acquired disease and
who live with steadiness and ordinary care. And
50 quietly does the political life of the country
move on that It's inhabitants are perhaps disposed
to place n careless trust in the government under
which everything works smoothly to imagine
that no individual action for the common well
fare is necessary, and to leave everything except
commercial matters to be managed by the officers
at Aliiolani Hale.
The late sOmewha abnormal weather, the long
drOughts and subsequent heavy rains, and the
recent prevalence of diseases which seem to pro-
ceed from some such undesirable causes as impure
water or tainted air, are things which should
awaken the mind Of every intelligent person to
the fact that many responsibilities rest upon the
people individually especially upon those who
live in crowded Observation-Disclosures can not
be thrown upon the government. However
efficient and indeatigable the Board of Health
may be, there are many respects in which it
must rely greatly upon the thoughtful co-opera-
ton Of the people in whose interests it is
working.
I'm other countries where the inhabitants are
less favored with general good health than IN
this, many Of the causes which lead to the out
break Of feycrs and other infectious diseases are
well known. y badly tapped drain-pipe will
sometimes generate 4 house full of poison, and
anything like a ~disagrecable odour proceeding
from n drain Is the warning Of all sorts of posi-
bic, even probable, evils. The accumulation
above ground Of kitehcn-refuse or decaying matter
OF any kind is very likely to load the atmos-
Pherc with bad gases. The proximity OF closets
and manure heaps to houses is n dangerous thing.
Drinking water drawn from n lcaky pipe crossing
q drain has been known to cause much disease.
Fever has been brought into houses simply
because the air which entered the open windows
habitually crossed a pool Of water into which
the kitchen slOps drained. Our supply of water
from the government reservoir no doubt protects
Honolulu from many dangers which poisoned
water might bring with 1t; but the wells Of
Honolulu should be very carefully protected from
the utilization Of poisonous matter from stables
or sewers or any other injecting cause.
These arc only n few OF the mattcrsi in which
it is incumbent upon every resident Of town or
village or even homestead to look out for him
self; and no amount OF government assiduity
can be so complete as to relieve individuals of
the responsibility which rests upon them of
taking care Of themselves.

WEDNESDAY last, tic 18th instant, was the
fifth anniversary Of tic accession of His Majesty
KALAKACl to the Throne OF these Islands, and in
accordance with previous notification was OBJ
served as a government holiday. Flags were
displayed on the Government Buildings and Con-
sular residences and the shipping in port, and
most places Of business were closed after -
O'Clock. At that hour, n salute was fred from
PunehbOwl battery, which was responded to,
gun for gun, by II. b. NJ. s. Opal. During
the morning, the Infantry Company . Princes
own of which His Majesty is the Captain,
paraded in uniform, and preceded by the Band
marched to the Palace. where they were reviewed
by the King, and several medals were presented
to those members who had displayed the most
proficiency in drill and punctualIty in attcn-
dance. Returning to the Armory, the Company
enjoyed n b~ountiful lunch, provided for them
by their officers. The day passed off very
quietly, and one could not but reflect upon
the contrast with the 18th of February, 1874.
On that day, n turbulent and savage mob
drove the Legislature from their Hall, beat and
almost killed a number Of the members, destroy
ed furniture, books and papers, battered the
Old Courthouse quite out of countenance, leav-
ing not q single pane Of glass entire, and but Tor
the Intervention Of foreign forces would doubt
less have burnt and plundered the city. But the
reign Of KAL,KAuA, thus begun in n storm, has
ever since been one Of peace and unprecedented
prosperity. Duing the five short years which
have elapsed since the accession of His Majesty,

IT I reported that Germany contemplates 4
revision 90 Ler tariffs and 4 return TO the protec-
tive System, modified by reciprocal arrangements
with neigLb'rIug states and that France has
given the necessary notice for the termination
Of her commercial treaties, accompanying such
notice with tie reason that she wishes her hands
free to meet the new arrangements contemplated
by Germany. Even in England there is some
thing more than a ripple Of agitation in favor
Of some return to protective duties. and some
reciprocal arrangements with Spain in regard
to tariffs. Ii Is just possible that before the
expiration Of our treaty with the United States
n somewhat similar treaty will have been made
with Canada which has just elected protectionist
as Premier that the value Of such arrange
ments, based upon the natural laws OF trade and
requirements Of tie contracting parties, will be
better understood, and such treaties more COM
mon than now. All this will undoubtedly tend
to prevent any termination Of our present com
mercial relations with the United States.
The LATE assault upon the integrity of our
treaty relations with the United States seems
to have only tended to show how futile such
attacks would be, and how certain It's conditions
arc to be carried out for the full term provided
for. The tone Of the press in the United States,
with few exceptions, is not unfayorable to the
treaty, and IL Is quite likely that the whole
movement was intended more rs n protest to
treaties Of 4 similar character with Mexico, and
other American States, than with any idea that
our treaty could be abrogated. The Only danger
to us is in tho fact that similar treaties may be
made with other sugar producing countries,
which might lead to greater competition in the
markets Of the Pacific Coast. But that is n
remote contingency. \ general reduction of
the duties on sugar by tic United States has
been spoken Of, but Of this there seems but little
danger, while the great debt Of that country
neeessitatcs a large revenue, and when such n
reduction would be contrary to the interests of
the large and influential sugar refining interests.
Thus there seems little danger that the value Of
the treaty to this country will be diminished in
any way during its full term, and for one year
