WHO WANTS MORE CHINESE ?

An endeavor is made in certain quarters to
convey the impression, that one leading policy
of the new administration is to favor a large in
fux of Chinese, and to encourage a Monaghan
immigration, and Chinese interests, reckless of
the welfare of the Hawaiian race and Kingdom.
This is the impression conveyed by certain cores
pondents to San Francisco newspapers, that the
opposition to the late Ministry was mainly based
upon philo-Mongolian measures. But we are
we'll assured that this impression is erroneous,
inasmuch as it does not indicate the right par
ties, who want more Chinese in this Kingdom.
And we think we can assist the public mind both
here and abroad to a more correct opinion in this
matter by the publication of the following docu-
ment.
... HONOLULU, July Sd, 1880.
SIR:-We the undersigned agents for sundry planta-
sent to your Company, that there is at the present time a

Memorial of Plantersf for East India Coolies

To HIS MAJESTY hALAKAUA AND CABINET.
May ii please Your Majesty :-Considering that
the thinness of the laboring class on these Islands
prevents the undertaking of any enterprise of mag
nitude by the help of Hawaiisns alone, that the cost
of labor here as compared with that of other coun-
tries is SO high as to render many Industries un-
remunerative; believing at the SAM time that labor
ers may be brought from India at q rate of wages
not more than one-third of that now paid; and that
judicious application to the British Government for
countenance and support would be answered by
cordial assent, the undersigned respectfully appeals
to your Majesty Kalakaua and Government, and
begs that steps be taken to promote the accession Of
Hawaiian enterprise by such measures as, in the
circumstances, you may deem requisite.

A Strange Incident of the Carnival.
Letter to London Standard

In the procession was a bouquet of
such colossal proportions that nine child
rem, whose heads, encased in monstrous
representations of melons, lemons,
oranges, and the like, rose high above the
surface of the flowers, were concealed
within the recesses of it. The entire ma
chine was carried on the shoulders of
four stalwart fellows, dressed like Swiss
peasants opera peasants; and very hard
work must their task have been. A sill
gular incident occurred in the midst of
the maddest revel. In the Via Nazion-
ale is the new American Church, with
it's lofty tower and peal of bells. And
while'the surging crowd which filled the
vast street were shouting, laughing, and
finging their flowers a qui mieux mieux,
the American bells began to ring out
their call to afternoon service-uselessly
for assuredly few or no worshipers
could have made their may to the
church. But the effect produced on the
crowd was charac teristic. The first
sounds were greeted with an enormous
shout of laughter; then the people began
to hiss. The bells were promptly
silenced.

large establishments, having surplus
steam power, should avail themselves of
the electric light, and smaller offices and
private residences should have recourse
to lamps. 1t is time FIR those companies,
then, to bethink themselves. As has
been justly remarked by the editor 8
mentioned above, IN certain situations,
"and with gas costing the excessively
high prices we are accustomed to pay,
the superior economy of electricity over
gas has been conclusively settled on this
side of the Atlantic"
Several very interesting communica-
tions have appeared of late in our own
and foreign scientific publications on the
phenomena of sun-spots, which are ap-
preaching their period of maximum de-
velopment just at present. All of these
notices are mainly descriptive, and as
such have little scientific value. What
is desired is such employment of the OBJ
served facts as will explode certain
hypothesis regarding these spots, or
which will elevate recent imagin-
ary explanations into what are
termed theories or highly probable
conjectures with respect to the cause Of
sun-spots and their possible connection
with events that concern us vitality as
inhabitants of the earth, which lives and
moves and has its being, so to speak, in
dependence upon the sun. Mere descrip-
tion is useful in its way, exactly as the
collection of stone and brick and cement
is necessary for building; but the dis
closure of relatively is quite different
thing, and requires the patient, humble
and earnest research of the scientist,
just as the skill of the master-builder is
essential to the arrangement of crude
material into structure at once beauti-
full and useful. Hod-carryiug is not ar
chitecture, any more than fact-gather-
ing is science. A clear conception of
this fact, which will bear very close
scrutiny, will relieve not few from a
false idea Of the construction they put
upon their labors, whether they are ter
restial or celestial physicists.

She turned to the door.
A little white hand was laid upon her
shoulder, and kind voice asked:
care you really in need of work, dear
childp
I'm needp repeated Vesta, fooking
into the old lady's face. "My life de-
pends on my getting it."
"Are you really so poor as that, dear?''
81 have neither home nor money" re-
turned Vesta, sadly.
Your parents, dear?' reminded the
old lady.
care dead" sobbed Vesta," the tears
flowing from her ewes.
Come home with me, and l shall see
what can be done for you. Here, dear,
this is my carriage Step in. We shall
drive for home"
Half an hour afterward Vesta sat in
beautifully-furnished room, in the midst
of silks and laces.
Old Mrs. Erwin had engaged her for
month to do sewing for her two daugh.
ters
One afternoon, two weeks after Vesta
sat in the garden talking to little Agnes
Erwin, and so interested were they with
each other, that they did not hear the
approaching footsteps, and started to
their feet when low, musical voice said:
"Good evening, Miss Erwin! Is this
where you are hiddenW
"Yes," replied Agnes, gavly; "when
Pm with Miss Villiars | like to 90 to
some place where | shall have her to my
self. But forgive me, Pd forgotten you
were not acquainted. This is Mr.. Law
son, Miss Villiars."
Vesta blushed under his adm'ring
gaze, but in a few moments she recovered
herself, and the two spent a very pleas
ant evening.
The month passed, but Mrs. Erwin
and her daughters would not hear of
Vesta leaving, and she was only too glad
to stay.
The summer passed away and the
golden autumn came, still Vesta was
with Mrs. Erwin, and now she was more
like companion than a hired seam
stress.
! One beautiful autumnal evening she
sat in the library singing softly to her
self, when Mr.. Lawson entered noiseless-
ly, and whispered:
"Vesta, dear Vesta, /"
Don't ask me to tell you what he said.
1t was too sweet for any one to hear
but Vesta's dear self.
Sin weeks after that autumnal even
ing Vesta was bride, and the beloved
mi tress of Mr.. Lawson's elegant home.
Vesta is happy, and although she has
told her husband of Louis action, she
expressed wish that he would take no
legal proceedings, and he loves her too
well not to crafty every wish.

ROIingbrOke, the Contradictory.
The London Quarterly Review.I

He bore the most excruciatisg of hu-
man maladies with a placid fortitude
which would have done honor to
Stylites; but the slightest error on the
part of his cook would send him into
such paroxysms of rage that his friends
were glad to be out of his house. His
whole soul was tormented by an insa-
table thirst for literary and political
distinction; it would, we believe, be i'm
possible to find in his voluminous. cor
respondence half dozen letters in which
he does not express contempt both for
the world and for the worlds regard.
His opinions were as wayward and as
whimsical as his actions. He d~lighted
to write of himself as the votary of a.
mild and tolerant philosophy which had
taught him the vanity of ambition and
could be nourished only in that retire
ment which, thanks to his enemies, he
was enabled to enjoy. Before the ink
was dry he was ransacking our language
for scurrilous epithets against those who
had excluded him from active life. Res
ignation was, he said, the virtue on which
he prided himself. His life was notori-
ousl y one long and fierce rebellion. He
professed the greatest respect for pre-
scription, and was one of the most revo-
lutionary of writers; for the Church, and
would have betrayed it; for Christian
ity, and was in the van of its bitterest
assailants. He delivered himself some.
times in rhodomontade redolent of the
ethics of Seneca and of the Utopias Of
Plato and Xenophon, and sometimes in
rhodomontade breathing the spirit of the
Prince and of the Fable of the Bee.
As the subject Of Anne, he went as fal
as Filmer in his estimate of the royal
prerogative; as the subject of George, he
went beyond Paley in deprecating it
As the Minister Of Anne, he was the
originator of the Stamp Act; as the sub
ject of George, he was the loudest anc
most vehement of the demagogues who
clamored for the absolute freedom of thu
press. The age he lived in he pro
nounced to be the Nadir of moral ane
political corruption; he proposed to pu
rify it by scheme which postulates tn,
perfection of those whose vices are to b,
cured by it. The truth is that, will
quick sensibilities he bad no depth o
feeling, with much insight no convic
tions.
