The epidemic begins to press a little
more heavily upon us. 1t calls for the
generous sacrifices on the part of the COM
munity not so much, of money, as of per-
sonal service and attention. There are now
over 120 patients, in the quarantine hospital
on the reef, who receive only a single daily
visit from a physician, who can merely give
a glance at them, and this glance hardly by
their bedsides as he must inspect besides
the 100 people sick, over 1000 people in
quarantine. He certainly needs more help /;
and we think there might be found a gene
erous, self-sacrificing physician, who might
be induced to reside at the hospital. And a
grateful Government and community,
would no doubt generously reward such a
physician. And if a physician were there
to watch the sick, there might be found
some noble hearted lady or two without
family duties to demand their attention,
whose beneficient ministrations would be n
saving influence on many a sick one and
which would compensate largely for the
sorrow and loss attendant upon this vista
ton. We are perhaps speaking of impossi-
BILE things but when we read of a noble
Florence Nightingale, and a sanity Sister
Dora soothing the horrors of disease even
in some instances ministering unto the
worst of men, we have thought, or wished
it possible, that there might be found some
brave hearts to ennoble Hawaii in her
straight.

THE subject of cooperation deserves and
attracts a good deal of attention. Mr..
Dole has made some thoughtful and
valuable statements on the subject. 1t is
by no means new. Building Associations
and Cooperative Loan Companies were
organized in the city of New York in 1S47,
by Mr.. Jessurun, hi brought his ideas
and experience on the matter from
England, where cooperation had been pre-
viously put into practice, and where it is
now established OF a very large scale and
very successfully, in the way of trade both
Wholesale and retail.
To begin an enterprise of thi kind is
half the battle. Let one hundred men of
small means club together ten dollars each
and you have a capital of one thousand.
Even men of small means could furnish
fifty dollars and then o have a reason
able capital of five thousand dollars, with
which a store house can be procured, a
clerk and porter engaged and a stock of the
articles which are in daily requirement
obtained. Each shareholder being a
pledged customer, there will be no need to
solicit patronage or to spend money and
throw away profits in seeking a connection.
The wants to be supplied will be known
and no speculative element will enter into
the purchases made. h returns can be

The Kamehameha Statue.

By the Ida Mckay, which arrived on
field & Co. received a telegram informing
them of the total loss, off the Falkland
Islands, of the ship Geo. F. Haendal,"
which sailed from Bremen for this port in
August last. This vessel, as our readers are
no dou bt aware carried the bronze statue of
King Kamehameha L. designed and ex-
ecuted to the order of a Committee appoint
ed by the Legislature of this Kingdom, by
MI. T. r. Gould, of Florence. The statue
was insured in Bremen through the agency
of Messrs. F. a. Schaefer & Co., for the
sum of $4,000 marks which will cover the
original cost of the statue mt the other ex
penses incurred in connection with its trans
mission to this country. In obtaining a new
cast of the statue the Committee will now
be able to have such corrections made in
the design as they deem advisable. The
sandals with which the feet of the warrior
monarch are encountered, and which have
awakened some critical remonStrance can
now be modified. Notwithstanding the veX-
atious delay, the loss of the original statue
may thus not be without it's advantages.
For our own part we rather rejoice that an
opportunity is given for a careful considera-
ton by the Committee of the numerous
criticisms which the photographs of the
statue gave rise to. The statue is our first
National Monument, and we should like to
see it as near perfection as a work of art as
may be, wen at the expense of keeping the
pedestal which awaits it empty for another
twelve months.

THE Land League of Ireland manifest an
extraordinary extent and strength of organ
ization. 1t is a wonderful unseen political
power. We sincerely deprecate any revo-
luton in the British Empire but we can
not Withhold our admiration on beholding
the strength and fidelity of the poor tenants
of Ireland ; and of hare working Irishmen
in all parts of the world who, banded with
the kin of the motherland, with their united
means and counsel, battle with immense
effect with the power of a mighty, wealthy,
organized empire. Courage, fidelity, and
sacrifice are noble things for us to contem-
plate in the Irish ~leaguers.

WHAT is the special committee of the
Privy Council doing? Seven members,
presumably selected for their activity and
devotion to the sanitary welfare of the
community, were to make rounds of domi-
cilary visits, and obtain precise information
about the condition of the epidemic. But
as cases are continually reported as sur
visited, we fear that perhaps this COM
mittee is overworked and not able to meet
the requirements of sanitary investigation
in the city, We shall be glad to hear from
the Chairman of the committee on the
subject.

THE PORTUGUESE.-The increase of the
Portuguese race in our population, we hail
with satisfaction. Though the people of
Portugal and of her Atlantic dependencies
nave greatly declined from the high rank
they held among the states of Europe, in
the fifteenth and sixteenth centuries; yet
the Portuguese genius and admirable traits
of character that have been overlaid and
suppressed by a series of adverse political
influences, will yet break forth and win the
admiration of the world. The race of the
heroic age of Portugal, still live in old
Lusitania, andi in the islands of the Atlantic.
They nave not been obliterated by invading
races like the old Grecian and Roman
stocks. The same great names of CANA,
Cunha, TeXeira, Zarco and Sylvia are
among them, and the noble achievements
of a Dom Enrique, of a King Ioao, and of an
Alonzo may be repeated.
1t is true we are not receiving any
recruits from the mother country on the
famous Peninsula but those we receive
from the Azores, from Madeira and the
Cape de Verdes fully represent the old
names, race and spirit of old Portugal. The
famous Kingdom, which produced so many
heroes and poets, has recently been rousing
from her slumbers, and held o tercentary
commemoration of her great poet Camoens.
His noble verses nave become a guide and
inspiration for his compatriots of this age.
He foretold the misfortunes and struggles
of his race and yet foretold a revival of
Portuguese glories, and, speaking of the
achievements of Portuguese discovery, he
anticipates Portuguese adventure in the
Pacific to follow the pathway opened up by
the heroic Magellan, in the following verse
of his noble poem the Lusiad.
4" Ate-qui, Portuguezes, concedido
Vos e sarberdes os futuros feitos,
Que pelo mar, que ia deixais sabido,
Virao fazer Baroes de fortes peitos.
Agora pois que tendes aprendido'
Trabalhos, que vos faesm ser acceitos
AS eternas esposas e fermosas,
Que coroas vos tecem gloriosas."
TRANSLATION.
Thus far, o Lusians, tbs decreed,
You should your country's glories read
And see your banner broad unfurled
Upon the main of the western world
Where first you trod, and you'll pursue
The path of heroes opened first by you.
Still be it yours the first in fame to shine,
Thus shall your brides new chaplets still entwine,
With laurels ever new your brows enfold,
And braid your wavy locks with radiant gold.I

The Kings Popularity Abroad.

"KING KALAKAUA has been entertained
right royalty by our social lions since his
re-entry into San Francisco society, and
can hardly feel otherwise han pleased at
the marks of esteem that he is everywhere
receiving. That His Majesty had a right
to expect an ovation, his previous visit
assured him, still he must have been un-
prepared for the very generous outpouring
of hospitality that has greeted him.. This
lionizing is not so much the outcome of a
desire to honor the rank of the royal visitor,
as an admiration of him who has done so
much in one short reign towards the social
and political Advancement of his people q
people whom he found, OH coming into his
heritage, to be very far down in the scale
of nations. That the ruler of the Sandwich
islands is to-day feted the world over, is an
his earnest efforts hence these tokens of
respect. "-Sdn francisco Call.
At the time the Kings purpose to journey
abroad was first preached, there was much
said in some quarters, that it would be an
unsafe venture on the part of His Majesty,
on account of political event which it was
alleged, had greatly diminished the royal
popularity. "The entire community had
been aggrieved" the state had been "shaken
to its centre by misgovernment." And a
San Francisco paper (the Merchant) said
that owing to recent events in the islands,
King Kalakaua had no reason to expect
another welcome from the people of the
Coast. But we felt at the time that our
King had only to show that he had the
hearts of his own people with him, in order
to command a warm and hearty reception
in any part of the world hence the advice
of this journal to His Majesty to make a
progress at home, before starting on the
tour abroad. And the loyal ovations of
Kohala, Wailuku and of Honolulu prior to
the departure of His Majesty, which we so
fully recorded are simply repeated in the
of the Golden Gate City.

The few cases of small pox reported on
shore last week., led to the hope that the
c%ontagion had not extended far beyond the
precincts already placed under quarantine.
Unfortunately this hope has been proved to
be fallacious, a fresh crop of cases having
manifested itself on Sunday. On Monday,
the widest reports were current throughout
the town, but we are glad to say that in
these the truth, though bad enough in
itself, was greatly exaggerated. The follow
ing is the list of new cases since Saturday
last, in their order as reported:

Government well-Boring at Makiki.

The Artesian boring now being carried on by
the Government at MakIki has reached a depth
of 80 feet. The tools in use are the heaviest
that have yet been at work here. They were
constructed especially for the purpose to the or
der of the Government, under instructions given
by the late Minister of the Interior, Mr.. Bush
Immediately after his accession to office. They are
adopted to an S-inch bore, which is the diameter
of the tubing in use at Makiki. The site select
ed for this experiment is close to the Makiki re-
servoir, a little to the north and east of it. The
object being to supplement the present town
supply from that source. What are the grounds
for believing that the water, which it is expected
that this boring will reach, will rise TO the re-
quired level we have not learnt. The early part
of the driving was through hard black rock for
twenty-five feet, followed by ten feet of very
compact black sand. The tool then entered a
stratum composed of soft clay with boulders in
the passage through which the latter are giving
a great deal of trouble.
81 A match was played on Saturday last be-
tween two teams drawn from the ranks of the
Honolulu and the Pacific Cricket Clubs, one from
the Seniors - and the other from the Juniors"
The result of the match appears in the score given
below, viz an ignominous beating for The Seniors
They intend to punish the presumption Of youth on
the occasion of a return match to re played this day
week.
