as Consulting Physicians have almost univer-
sally declined so questionable an honor.

The Situation.

The political situation remains unchanged,
we are drifting or being driven towards the
fatal shores Of absolutisin. On Friday circu-
lars wero issued to the members of the Privy
Council calling meeting for noon on the fol-
lowing day Saturday the 4th). On the after
noon of the latter named day the public were
astounded by the news, that two of the
most trustworthy members of the council
had been called upon to resign their seats.
These two gentlemen are amongst those who
have never sought or obtained post or emolu-
ment at the public expense. and their dismiss
sal, for such it was, went long way towards
increasing the feeling of distrust and uneasi-
ness which for some weeks past has undeni-
ably been hinderiug business and obstructing
progress.
The additions to the Privy Council List are
not regarded with any more favor than the re
movals the new members cannot be said to
enjoy the confidence of the public, and with
the exception of the member for Lahaina are
scarcely known as public men at all
All these recent changes seem to point in
one direction, namely personal government,
thinly veiled under the forms of the constitu-
ton. These things ought not to be, and it is
universally felt that they are becoming intol-
erable. Amongst other surprises on Saturday
we heard that the Privy Council had de-
manded and obtained from the Minister oil
Finance the sum of $1,000 avowedly for the
purpose Of resistance to possible riots. Who
are they who anticipate rioting? We do not
Indeed it is with q feeling of absolute shame
that we note the withdrawal of a considerable
sum Of public money from the Treasury 70,
the purpose of allaying en- unwo orthy and
groundless fear. =" The wicked flee when nc
man pursueth" is as true as ever. In wha
shape this money will re-appear remains tc
be seen. Fear! fear of what or of whom
Surely there are plenty Of officers, nay ever
some privates, keeping guard over the ma
tional buildings; the vaults of the national
treasury are secure as ever; fear and terror
are incompatible with business aud progress
and for their sakes the sooner the Reign o.
Terror comes to an end the better.

A paragraph in Hrper's Bazaar of Aug.
2Sth states an undoubted relic of the ill
fated Atdlanta has been recently picked up at
sea. 1t is three-fourths length figure of a
goddess, just such an effigy as was known to
be carried by that ship. 1t bears evidence of
great violence, and its appearance tends to
strengthen the theory that the vessel met its
destruction by collision" Our theory has
always been that she was destroyed by COL
lision, most probably with some derelict, per-
haps water-logged lumber ship. To have
encountered either, the chip must have been
driven far to the North of her course, (from
Bermuda to Cork or Plymouth) or else the ice
must have travelled an unusual distance south
ward. The figure head found is undoubtedly
similar to that of the Atdlanta and of scores of
other of H. b. Ms ships for that matter, so
that we should like to hear if it can be identi-
fled by the Dockyard authorities, before feel
ing sure as to its ownership. The Ah,ia"to, then
II. NJ. S. Juno, 20 gun frigate, Capt. Pat Blake,
was on this (Pacifc) station for several years
up TO S49,w when she returned to England round

eral, himself an old naval officer, for attracting
our attention to the above quoted paragraph

A VERY interesting work we have found to
be adventures in Patagonia, n Missionary's
Exploring Trip" by tho Rev. Titus Coan, re-
Gently published in New York, and for sale
hero by Whitney e. Robertson. Mr.. Coan
in company with Mr.. Arms. was sent out to
Patagonia leaving New York August 10th,
1899, TO explore the country and make ar
rangements for the establishment of station
by the American Board of Missions. They
spent two and half months among the nom
adic savages, enduring all sorts of privations,
but being kindly treated on the whole and
finally left on the schooner antarctic arriving
at New London May eth, 1884. An equally
interesting appendix furnished by Mr.. Coan,
tnow in his sOth year) is mr. Darwin's Ex-
plorations and experiences in the Falkland Is
lands, North and East Patagonia, &c." and

The borrowing craze seems to have for the
time subsidized but is by no means dead. In
the event of its re-animaton we ought to re-
member that wherever the Hawaiian borrower
goes, there too go the Hawaiian statistics,
population, revenue, taxation, appropriation
oils and all. Imagine capitalist seated at
his desk with the proposal for this preposter-
ous Ioan before him. What we fancy him
saying, ga kingdom of sixty thousand in
habitants wanting to borrow sum equivalent
to about 81 SO per head for every man, woman
or child within its borders Cinnamon, South
Sea immigrants and all ~ What proportion
he would say, would this loan bear to the
capitalized wealth of the whole country :?
Next, what would they do with il =? Let me
see what they do with the revenue they have :
Civil List, true, rather heavy it seems Mill
tary, more than ample; Bands, flags and
salntes good gracious! How expensive these
necessaries must be in that little kingdom
But what is this? Coronation expenses, so
many Thousands Ascertaining pedigrees, so
much more Foreign education for Hawaiian
youths Subsidy for Chinese steamers Un-
accountable, caprioious dismissal of Minis
tries and Privy Councillors, blind disregard of
public opinion-no wonder they wind up with
supplementary appropriation for protection
from possible breaches of the peace! No |!

H. NJ. S. Pelican returned on Sunday
morning from her second cruise amongst the
Islands. j. II. Wodehouse, Esq, Ii. B. NJ.
Commissioner. went in her, for the purpose,
among others, of seeing and reporting upon
the condition of the South Sea laborers on the
various plantations where they are employed.
Several estates on Kauai, Mauai, and Hawaii
were visited, and the conclusions drawn by H.
B. NJ. Commissioner were somewhat as fol-
lows: The house accommodation afforded to
these immigrants 10 almost invariably insufi-
ccnt for health, comfort, or cleanliness. Med
ical attendance too often unattainablc, but in
that matter We think all residents on planta-
.:ons, masters and servants, are about ON an
equality.
The laborers appeared to be we'll fed, and
with an occasional exception tolerably we'll
of. deficient house accommodation being al
ways borne in mind. But he is of opinion, as
we stated in our last issue, that it is impera-
lively necessary that systematic registration
and supervision be adopted by the Board Of
Immigration, SO that every individual laborer
may be always recognizable and producible.
The Board of Immigration should provide
an efficient, independent officer, who should be
authorised to report on the well-being or the
reverse Of all contract laborers.
Periodical inspection should be the rule, and
the reco .mendations of the Inspector be at
tended to, rr,a.
OF course this would be difficult of accom-
plishment, as the Inspector must be inde-
pendent Of planters interests and have a
competent interpreter ut hand |; but the attempt
should be made. We hear tina. the Minister Of

Ir ~ arranged that II u. NJ 8. Pelican sails
for the South Pacific on Tuesday. Sho will
call at Fouuings. Penrhyn and other Isles,
thence TO Tahiti and So on to Ccquimbo. She
will probably bo replaced in icw days by tho
Penguin aud we are glad TO hc,r that our har-
Dor will not long be left without foreign ma
tionnl flag. We gave IL ma our opinion las.
week and rcpca, IL to-day that under no cir
cumstnnecs will foreign ncnof war Interfere
betwoon political parties in these lsands, but
will ooniinc themselves to watching over and
protecting the lvcs and intcrcais Of their own
countrymon.
There arc on tho statutc book plenty OF
cnactmcnts relating to the supervision or re-
preston OF vagrancy, and yet we are told that
while planters arc In gricvous want of labor

might be good IDEA il tho Minister of the
