THE Advertiser, under the heading com
municated," has recently published series of
papers labelled "Street Talk" All are often
sivoly vulgar and in the last issue posi-
lively indecent 1t is to be hoped that if the
Adr1tiser have any foreign readers, these
effusions may not be considered as typical, or
indeed in any way representative, of the
street talk to be met with in this city. The
writer appears to foregathcr for the most part
with the frequenters of bar-rooms, and jumpers
or loafers on the wharves but even then we
do not believe in the man with his "widc-
awake on his left ear, squirting at the bead on
the Bourbon with his right eye, and who
iingled lot of cash in the recesses of his
pants" Farther quotation would be unad-
visable. We do not recognize such street
takers in Honolulu as those who make this
writer their confdant. That cold salt, ;" though
he does use tobacco, and swears, was never in
his life, we will be bound to say, at sea but as
stowaway or steerage passenger. That the
cold acquaintance in Chinatown, who so
delicately explains his reasons for refusing
work, but proposes to start smuggling un-
dertaking, is more probably nearer the real
experience of the writer, seems likely enough.
At all events, we applaud the irate gentle
man. who cried out, Stop that paper don't
leave it here any more ~ and thereby attracted
the attention of an irate editor The coarse
ness of these communications, after all, savors
more of the Colonies than of the Coast, and
points more towards Larrikns than to hood
lums,

THAT a serious dispioportion in the num-
bers of the sexes in any community is grave
evil no one questions that the evil is inten-
sified when it is the female sex which is in the
minority, is also true: and that this intensified
evil exists in this Kingdom, cannot be dis
puted But this is no new discovery. II is
no ones patent-right. Ranting and blathering
about love of humanity in general, and of tho
Hawaiian race in particular, does not consti-
tute philanthropy; nor does the systematic
vilifying OF men or set of men, occupied in an
industry not ones own, represent statesman
ship. Much that we have read lately on the
subject, especially some articles cndeavorng
to fix the crime of a murderer on the negi-
gence of his employer. reminds US Of a charac-
ter in Hudibras who,--

Tended by none but will buckle to, and will,
as far as in him lies, work, that by opposing,
os he may end them.
The matter seems to US TO be far more
difficult than appears at frs, glance. BY the
census of 1878 it is stated that in the native
population alone the males exceed tho females
in number by nearly thousand (975)
amongst the half-castes there is a small pre-
ponderance u females. OF all foreign nation
aliiies the males far ouinumber the females,
without reckoning the Chinese, who in 1878
counted 5s76, Of whom only l3l were females;
and this disproporlion has been enormously
increased by the arrivals Of the last five
months. Here, then, we are brought face to
face with the facts. Even supposing there
were no native women married to foreigners,
which is very far from the fact. even then
there would be thousand Hawaiian men and
no wives for them. But the Chinese part Of
the question is the most difficult Here we
have Cinnamon by the thousand, aud but

ceptable to everyone affected by them. 1t will
take a generation or more to cause them to be
willingly adopted or even perhaps intelli-
gently understood. The great lords of the
soil will regret their fcudal privileges and the
poor will miss the patrarchal protection of
their chiefs; but though there may yet bc
trouble in store for the japanese, the wedge
which is breaking up their old internal
economy, and the blows which have shattered
their old jealous and exclusive foreign policy
have been driven home too far TO admit Of any
but a temporary check. Meanwhile we rejoice
at the spectacle Of the cordial greeting of the
rulers Of Hawaii and Japan, these two young
members Of the great comfy of nations, and
thank the Emperor and his Government for the
courteous welcome with which they have re-
ceived King Kalakaua.
The royal parry have been heard of from
Shanghae, where they spent two days, and
thence on to Hongkong. We wish them con-
tinued health and enjoyment.

WE publish elsewhere letter to the
Foreign Office, recounting the ''Progress
Of the Ali Kalakaua" in japan. 1t
will DO seen, as was anticipated, that the
Japanese Emperor elected to overlook the
iacoqaito under which, as his Government had
besn advised, it was intended by the King to
travel, and has received him right royalty as
brother Monarch. The welcome accorded
to him was 80 cordial, so thoroughly hos
pitable and withal so truly regal, that we earn
estly congratulate the King. the royal suite,
and the Hawaiian people at large on the course
of events as related in this letter. 1t is
Interesting to note the meeting of two friendly
rulers, each representing nation which has
but comparatively recently taken, and been
accorded by all the civilized world. position
amongst the great group of civilized and pro-
gressive peoples. In this respect the Hawaiian
nation has the priority, and naturally the EN-
peror and his officials were anxious to show
their distinguished visitor the progress they
themselves have made in adopting the ideas,
the inventions and conveniences provided by
modern industry and science, which not long
ago they had repelled and jealously excluded
from their shores, while Hawaii was already
advancing with rapid strides on the pathway
of progress. Perhaps no two moro remarkable
events of their kind can DO quoted in the
worlds history than the spontaneous repudia-
tor OF their old idolatries, with their cruel
rites and barbarous customs, by the Hawaiian
chiefs aud people on the one hand, aud the
sudden revolution in Japan, the abolition Of
the dual monarchy aud the eager adoption of
new laws, manners and customs, even, we may
say, modes Of thought aud action, as seen in
that country at the present day. 1t was only
in 1853 that Commodore Parry reached Jeddo,
and in the five following years commercial
treaties were concluded with America, Great
Baitain, and Russia, and Nagasaki and Hako-
dadi opened to their commerce. Ten years
more were taken up by revolutions and counter
revolutions, and wars foreign and domestic
and only In the last ten years has Japan been
adopting tho inventions and improvements
bro.ght from abroad, receiving and sending
forth embassies, establishing schools under
foreign superintendencc, and sending abroad
her youths TO he educated. la these ten years
what wonders have been wrought; railways,
telegraphs. steam printing presses are familiar
in the neighborhood Of treaty porss and are
constantly spreading. Such fundamental
changes as these cannot be thoroughly ac-
