Dn account Of this concerted action OF the For
cipn Representatives and the foreigners of tho
city OF Honolulu partly in secret aud partly open
treason, they continued to talk, exaRgefate and
brighten, in order that the mind Of the King might
be changed in respect to Moreno and also in
respect 10 the other Ministers. On Friday tho
18TH day Of August our King appointed Rev. NJ.

Foreign Aairspro ten, he questioned his colleagues
IN respect to recognizing the Foreign Represent
atives in case they should come to hold inter
course with the Hawaiian Government through
himself as Minister Of Foreign Affairs. and whether
he should inform them Of what the Hawaiian Gov
eminent thought Of their conduct, Government
insulting Foreign Representatives., and Of the in
hntion to enter complaint to their Governments
against them. The majority voted TO recognize
complaint against them for reasons known TO tho
Hawaiian Government, which in brief are fol-
lows: They united to object To Moreno, q con-
tempt of the King they hoisted their flags and
fastened them to the poles day and night for no
good reason, as there was no riot aud the Govern
ment was always ready TO suppress any disturb:
persons Of tho land 10 demand Of tho King that he
dismiss Moreno, and the English Commissioner
called on the Chiefess keetkolani for that pur-
pose and the Premier sent for by the French
Consult deeds contrary to the rules Of Office and
unwarranted encroachment also an insult to the
King and his Government in that they did not
come direct TO him like good friends. This is the
substance Of the action Of the Foreign Represent
atives. r -, .
In the newspapers opposed To tho real Hawaiians
the Hawaiian Ministry WAS blamed without proper
explanation Of what they had done. II we UNDER
stand the nature of Foreign officials, 1t is very
clear they have done things for which their Gov
ernments will censure them. Those officials were
placed here to guard tho rights Of their citizens,
when they are wronged or injured; then they
should report to the Government where they
residing the wrong done 10 such citizens. But ye
who read, do you know of any wrong done to the
countries of these Government officials? No, not
by any means. Were they right in treating with
contempt person appointed 70 office by the King
on account of their personal prejudice? What
would England's Government say to this Govern
ment about Hawaiian's Representative residing in
London il objection were made 70 Gladstone on
account of personal feeling. In opinion tho
English Government would demand Of Hawaii his
immediate dismissal from Office
