the law rs to common nuisances (Chaptcr 80

is an interesting as well as an important one,
as connected with both private rights aud the

their Honors may be expected sometime during
the recess. We note that the wash houses
erected by the river side by the Minister of the
Interior are as vet unoccupied, and that the
Chinese "Wash Iron" establishments are still
in active operation all over the city. The
laundrymen complain that the accommoda-
tions at the government wash houses are in
sufficient; that the exposure to high winds at
that locality renders the clothes liable to
damage in drying; and that the rental de-
manded is too high

wages safe in his pocket, Whatever may be
the Inconvenience to his employer. 1t is now
very difficult to get a Chinaman to ship for a
period for domestic service, and il he does he
demands an extravogant advance. Whatever
may be the difficulties in the way, We think it
would be quite worth trying to communicate
again with the Government of Great Britain
with view to procuring labor. both field and
domestic, from British India. There are almost
innumerable classes, tribes and varieties of
races between the Himaayas and Cape Comor-
in. We have published lately letters from
gentlemen who have served in India and Cey-
lon in both civil and military capacities, strong
ly advocating the introducing of some of these
people. That there may be obstacles in pol
itical point of view is very true, but 80 there
are to every International undertaking. How
many years elapsed, and how many missions
were sent forth, from the first attempt to get
reciprocity treaty with the United States, to
its final accomplishment. The present seems
to us a particularly favorably opportunity.
Since Mr.. Carter and Mr.. Wodehouse were in
London new Minister presides at the Foreign
Office, u new Minister at the India office, a
new Viceroy has lately reached his seat Of gov
eminent, and new Governor has gone to
Madras. II seems as if the negotiations might
be opened afrcsh, db initio, ms soon as our nn-
comfortable position in regard to the three
great treaty powers is amended, and suspend
ed diplomatic relations resumed. We shall
probably have to eat our leek, and swallow a
lesson in good manners, and then, VIC hope,
affairs may go on smoothly again. There is
some talk of u meeting of the Board Of Immi.
grafton to be held at an early date, when
planters and agents will be invited to discuss
this great labor question. We hope with some
practical result

THE rumor of His Majesty's projected for
eign tour still attracts attention and seems to
be favorably viewed by all parties. No doubt
the King has suffered good deal Of worry and
anxiety of late, and if half the stories we hear
be trne, His Msjesty's nerves have been
severely shaken and lie needs rest and change
of scene. We hope, however, that the journey,
if it be decided on. may be arranged and car
ried out with due regard to economy, always
keeping in mind the state and dignity of a
Monarch. In looking over the various ap-
preparations made by the late Legislative
Assembly, we see that the sum total Of the
items devoted more or less directly to the COM
fort and convenience of the King and the Royal
household, bear proportion to the whole
wealth of the nation which would startle and
amaze tho taxpayers in any of the old debt
bearing countries.

TOPICS OF THE DAY.

In connection with Christian names n cor
respondent mentions the following interesting
fact, which came under his notice while en-
ployed on q law case: There was buried re-
Gently an old lady, the widow, long surviving,
of gentleman who had for his godfathers two
no less distinguished personages than Lord
Nelson, and General Washington. The gentle
mans name was Horatio Washington Kirk
patrick. Was he baptized in America, or did
Washington stand godfather by proxy? If the
former were the case, it would have been quite
possible for Washington and Nelson to have
stood together at the baptismal font, assuming
that Nelson, who certainly commanded man
of-war on the North American and West India
Station, visited some Atlantic port of the
United States. The Duke of Kent, the fnther
of Her Majesty Queen Victoria, was present at
one of LADY" Washington's New Years re-
ceptions at New York

THE crucial question at present is, no doubt
that Of labor. 1t is said thai there are near
1000 Chinese on the way hishers but II il be
30 they will not suffice for our needle. II may
be remembered that OF tho number brought
by tho lilo Chung not one shipped on
Q, white mans plantation, but were all taken
up by their own countrymen engaged in rice
or sugar growing. The price Of labor is such
Us 10 almost swamp any concern unless with a
large amount Of available capital behind it, and
there seems to be no sign Of wages being re-
duced. 1t is true that some old-established
plantations having survived earlier difficulties
yield a handsome dividend even at the pres
ent price Of labor, but it is very uphill work
for new plantation struggling into existence.
The Chinese are 90 clannisli, keep themselves

WE fail to see that any good can be accom-
plisled by the persistent efforts of tho Express
to white-wash Moreno. 1t matters little to
us what Moreno is or was in Ohio. We all
know what lie was and what he did here, and
that he is more spending Hawaiian public
money. An Italian employed by Chinese
Company, he came here to further the inter
ests of that company, not without keen look
out for his own. So far so good. But now
fuence unknown and uuintelligibe to us, this
man was thrust into the Cabinet, when he was
by law disqualified for oekins tho eofFrosoe of
a constituency. Tie Representatives of the
three great powers, jointly and severally re-
fused to hold communication with such
Foreign Minister. Instantly set of charges
or accusations, false for tho most part, and
frivolous as to the whole, were drawn mp and
transmitted at once to their respective Seats Of
Government, demanding the recall Of the three
Representatives, without those gentlemen
knowing what was going Oh. However,
circumstances concerning Moreno were made
known and his resignation necessitated and
edged to DO wholly unfit for place and posi-
ton is put in possession of large SUN of pub
lie money, and trunk full of documents cap
able of getting Hawaii into difficulties with
half the great nations ON the earth, and sent
off with sort of rowing commission. The
result is a suspension Of diplomatic relations
with the Three Powers, pending the receipt by
their consuis of further instructions.
This il the Moreno Of whom we know, and
know too much. The Express says, to The
Hdwaiims only, that Moreno not only dimes
but travels about with General Garfield. This
may or n,sy not be true, but what does it prove
on either supposition? In old Monarchical
England they say "a cat may look at King"
and any two men may travel by the same train /;
how much moro in the Republican United
