SR; have the honor to acknowledge the re-
ceipt of your ENcellency's communication of the
Sd instant inquiring if any of my dispatches for
warded to my Government by the Zedldhldia on the
30th August last, had not arrived, and if there is
in my mind good ground of suspicion that such
may have been abstracted from the mailbag be-
fore going on board.
In answer, 1 have the honor to state that 1 had
forwarded by the mail of the above date lengthy
and important political dispatch nclosing therein
copy of, and commenting upon, the treaty lately
concluded between this Kingdom and the German
Empire. This dispatch has remained without even
an acknowledgment of the receipt of the same ON
the part of my Government. 1t is possible. but
not probable, that this is merely an oversight,
which shall ascertain by sending copy of my
dispatch by the outgoing mail steamer to Him. IS
Minister of Foreign Affairs and inQuiring if the
original had been received. I shall not fail TO in
form your Excellency in due time of the result of
my inquiry; and beg here to add that the tele-
gram and dispatch sent by me TO my Government
by the mail steamer ofSeptember last have arrived
in due time and the answer of His Excellency the
Minister of Foreign Affairs gives no reason to
suppose that the previous dispatch from here had
been received.
If the non-arriyal of the dispatch in question
should prove true, should feel suspicion that
tie letter has In some manner been abstracted
But as such cannot be proven, am not justified
to give this impression more weight than il de-
serves as yet. Your Excelleucy VIII be the best
judge of the facts as they may ultimately present
themselves.

we're sent per ZealaRdia in August last and they
we're forwarded through the Post Office here as
usual.

SR: With reference TO your enquiry as to the
manner in which your dispatches per the steamer
mail of August 30th, 1880, were posted, / have to
report that in list of letters posted on that day
by the postage clerk of Mr. 1heo H. Davies of

age account of H. B. MS Consulate-General,
the position of this charge in the said list indicat
ing with very like ground for doubt that the let
tiers upon which this amount was paid, was posted
at the Honolulu post-ofce. Later in the same list
a further charge of 80 cents for postage on the
same account appears from the position of which
charge it cannot be stated with certainty whether
the letters to which 1t refers were posted at the
post-ofice. through the agents of the steamer, or
on board the steam ship ZedlGHdia.

The meeting at Kaumakapih last Saturday eve
ming was attended by large crowd, five resolu-
tions we're unanimously passed and the meeting
quickly dispersed. The motions were put by Mr..
John Sheldon and seconded by the Hon. S. Kaai-
The resolutions were in substance as follows :
/. This mass meeting had no confidence in the
executive administration of the government for
their acarelessness and ignorance in the guarding
of the public safety" 2. This mass meeting
expressed its unbounded disapproval Of every
member of the Board of Health 3. That in con-
sequence of the above it was resolved to "humbly
beseech our Royal Mother the Princess Regent, to
remove from their Offices" j" the members of the
Board of Health and the Ministry. T. Appointed
a Committee of twelve TO wait upon Her Royal
Hiphness. s. That the meeting should adjourn to
meet again from time to time until favorable
answer TO the petitions should be received
All bodies of men have right of meeting in
proper places and at proper times to discuss poll
teal matters as long as the language used IS not
of an incendiary character. Indeed we think IT a
good thing to allow people to blow of little super
abundant steam, it hurts nobody and pleases
themselves We verv gravely question, however,
the wisdom of holding such meeting at such a
time. With plague amongst US, that demands
the confidence of the natives in the executive
authorities, in order to enable them to carry out
their measures of prevention, set of men get
together and deliberately try to undermine all
confidence. What good did they expect to do At
such crisis can any one in their senses imagine
that Regent will turn out her Ministers or her
Board of Health IN difference to popular cry ?
Can new and green hands do better than those
who are accustomed to the routine of office /?
Moreover the harm that is done by undermining
confidence is incalculable. It is hard enough to
protect the native against himself, it is hard to
make him see the necessity of isolation of small
pox cases. The resolutions of this meeting seem
to MS to be really an effort to do the harm which
they pretended to prevent.
The Hawaiian gazette., 1881-02-09

IT Is suggested that the Board of Health issue
daily bulletins during the prevalence OF the small
pox, in order that an authentic and authoritative
statement shall take the place of the thousand
wild and unfounded rumors which agitating
the public mind. 1t is urged, on the other hand,
that the panic-makeIs will say that the Board con-
ceals the greater number of cases, and shall be
no better off with an official bulletin than without
one. To that we reply, let every who alleges
that cases are suppressed be required to produce
them if he knows of such; If not, that he shall
presently take a more quiet role than that of
aarInisf or suffer the penalty attached to the of
tense of concealing infected persons.

S1R: Having learned that some of the Repre-
sentatives of Foreign Powers and Consular Agents
had reason to suspect that dispatches which they
had forwarded TO their Governments by the mail
steamer Zealdndia leaving this port for San Fran
cisco on the 3Oth of August last had been abstract

which went through the agents of the steamer, or
from the post-ofhce before going on board. l
should be glad to learn from you, if you have miss
ed dispatches sent by that mail, the exact parti-
culars, SO that the matter may be thoroughly in
vestigated should there seem to be good grounds
for entertaining the suspicion that such was the
case.
viii you be kind enough to state if your other
correspondence, if any, by the same mail, arrived
at its destination and how your letters were posted,
also generally what are the grounds for your sus-
picion, that letters by that mail may have been
abstracted from the bags if any suspscion exists

matter, as it is now there will remain doubt
upon It; supposing only one had 50 died, the
authorities would have taken the alarm and meas
ures, which were only commenced on Friday might
have been put in force week or more before
The Board of Health cannot be blamed for not
having such an officer in as much as the law az 1t
at present stands does not require the cause OF
death to be specified. We have written Che above
therefore merely as suggestion that as soon as
possible some steps should be taken to amend the
present conditions upon which bodies are permit

Stating that you had learned that some of the
Representatives of Foreign Powers and Consular
Agents had reason to suspect that dispatches which
they had forwarded to their Governments by the
mail steamer Zealandia, leaving this port for San
Francisco on the S9th of August last, had been
abstractad either from the mail bags or from the
outside bags which went through the agents of the
steamer or from the Post Office here before going
on board; that you would be glad to learn from
me If had missed dispatches sent by that mail !:
if any other correspondence By the same mail had
arrived at its destination; how my letters were
posted; and If any suspicion exists in my mind
that letters may have been distracted from the
mail, and beg leave to reply, that BY the mail in
question sent official dispatches through the
Post Office in Honolulu, addressed respectively to
n. Ms Minister of Foreign Affairs Brussels Bel
R1um, and the Hague Holland, to which up TO this
date no acknowledgement has been received by
me-and that the letters TO the European cores
pondents of our Banking Firm, forwarded by the

TIE very large influx into this country during a
few years past Of persons dependent upon manual
labor for THEN living has caused heavy demand
upon the resources of the local benevolent socie-
ties and we trust that the attention which has
lately been called to this subject by the press gen.
orally may tend 10 material effort on behalf of
these most deserving organizations. One Lrt two of
the Societies have long been maintained princi-
paly by the donations of resident subscribers with
n view in the first place to the relief of old resi-
dents who may have become destitute; but many
calls have recently been made upon their funds for
the assistance of comparatively new comers, who
may may not have contributed, while they were
able, 10 these very useful Societies to which they
afterwards appeal for help. Inview of the ncreas-
ing prosperity of the country, we think that the
Government ought TO give assistance to certain
organized bodies of the kind, or else 20 plan some
Official system of relief for persons finding them
selves through misfortune placed in circumstances
OF destitution. And il would be most satisfactory
If some regulation could be made to hinder the
sending 10 Honolulu from abroad of sick people
without means of self-support, many of whom land
here annually under the deceiving hope that our
climate will at once return them 20 health and
ergy. Cases of this kind have long constituted a
heavy tax upon the liberality of persons willing 10
give and the whole subject is one worthy of, and
indeed demanding, the attention of Government.

The following remarks on smallpox are take

The IOIUWIls IeIII'IIAS Oh -IIOA dIe IaheII
from Dr. Tanners Practice of Medicine:
"The period of latency or incubation lasts
twelve days. during which there are no symptoms
of indisposition. Then the disease commences
with shivering, fever, headache, vomiting, and
well marked muscular pains in the back. These
symptoms are succeeded at the end of forty-eight
hours, or the beginning of the third day, by an
eruption of small red pimples, which in the course
of a week inhame and suppurate and begin TO scab.
When smallpox occurs after efficient vaccination
or after previous attack of variola (small-pox)
the affection is spoken of as modified smallpox.
Varioloid or abortive smallpox, is that form in
which the eruption seems to stop in its vesicular
stage; most of the vesicles drying up instead of
going on to the formation of pGstules."
