second, the Hawaiian race is very far from
Indifferent as to whether tley be bought and
sold or no, third, the American residents are
very well satisfied with their legitimate in
huence and political standing, and fourth, that
the remainder Of the inhabitants prefer to live
under the Hawaiian flag OF that Of their own
Consnlates. Here we may point out another
aspect Of annexation to any ether power
Suppose it accomplished; suppose a force,
from company of artillery, o a corps ddrmee
be put in possession of this or any other town,
harbor or anchorage, from any foreign country,
then we are involved in al the troubles that
may arise between any two Of those powers.
Is Honolulu garrisoned ;nd fortified by the
British? 1t may be bomb,rded by the French
and Americans. Is it gar'isoned and fortified
contrary to treaty by any one Statc?- for
tunes must be joined with those of the occupy
ing power, and penalties exacted by any other
at war with that power. No!-wo say that
the prosperity of this Kingdom hinges on it's
Independence. As longas this Kingdom is
avowodly and determinedly Independent, no
one can touch us-let one gun or one soldier
be landed here with any ilea of occupation,
we are involved in every wir that may break
out throughout the whole world.
Even If Hawaiians wer. to fortify thei r
capital city and principal port, even then, it
would only invite agression An unprotected
place may be summoned to surrender, but
could not, under the laws of war, as at present
understood, be subjected to military opera
tions; therefore we say our safest position is
unarmed neutrality under the guarantee of the
great powers. If we have any notion of how
public opinion stands here we should say
it stands thus we don't want to be bought
sold, annexed or even protected by any on,
great power; let us be free, Independent, self
governed, without possibility of being drawn
into other peoples quarrels. Let us as
feeble State accept the mutual guarantee %
more powerful States and rest satisfied II
has only been by strict and judicious neutrality
that we have thriven thus far. Had we be-
longed to the States in 1863, the Confederate
cruisers would have destroyed this place III
surely as they did the whaling feet, or if W,
had been Confederates, then rice Dersn. Hat
we been French dependency in 1870, we
would have been served the same way by th
Germans; or if German, by the French Hat
we had the Turkish flag flying in 1878, W,

panage or any ones battlefield; peace, goo'
will and independence is our idea of the neces
sary conditions of prosperity.

WE do not hold ourselves necessarily in ac-
cord with all the opinions held by our cor
Respondents, but we do think that tho non-
rendering of verdict by the jury on the first
Rhodus trial was failure of Justice. Tho
whole evidence adduced in court was to the
effect that one man was shot by another, and
that the latter was amenable to the law for
whatever took pace. If man illegally car
rying deadly weapon, draws it and inficts
death or Disagreement, or injury of any kind
on another, his is the responsibility. The
second jury found the only possible verdict
on the merits of the case The acquitting por-
ton of the first jury either rejected the evi
dence laid before them, and therefore pro-
nouneed the accused man to be innocent, or else,
which we consider more probable, they pro-
nounced verdict not on the facts brought be-
fore them, but on the Penal Code Of the
country, which We maintain it was not their
business to do. The sentence ought to be left
to the judges who will award ac-
cordiEg to the law; in the case in
question it cannot DO said that the
judge strained the law on tho side of severity
We tried last to set forth an idea of the duty
of jurymen, and farther back wo had occasion
to refer to the abominable practice of carrying
lethal weapons. unless lawfully justi6able. We
so far agree with our correspondent, that we
think that ii verdict be based on the opinion
of jury as to the severity of possible pun
ishment, and not on their opinion as to the
facts proved before them, then the jury mis-
spprehends the obligation laid before them.
