Nicholas, he was expelled from France
in consequence of his incendiary speeches,
and a reward of 10000 roubles was offered
for his capture. He returned upon the
Revolution of 1S4S, but the Provisional
Government displeased him and he went
to Prague, where he tried to get up a
revolution, which was unsuccessful; and
escaping to Dresden, was just in time to
be present at the disturbances there. He
was captured by the Saxon authorities,
tried, and condemned to death; but the
Austrian Government demanded his ex-
tradition, tired him over again for his
Prague escapade, and passed a similar
now stepped in, and at Nicholas request,
he was handed over to Russia. From
1851 to 1856 he was imprisoned in the
fortress at st. Petersburg. On the corona
ton of the late Emperor, owing to power
full intercession, Bakunin had his sentence
commuted to banishment in Siberia. Here
he was allowed considerable liberty on
parole. He broke his parole and managed
to escape in a trading schooner to Yoko-
hama. This was in 1861. He now took
up his residence in London, where he was
engaged in editing revolutionary news
paper, the " Kolokol." His Nihilistic doc
trines, preaching fire and death in every
number, killed the paper, which, till he
became connected with it, had large cir
culation. In 1868 BakUnin assisted in the
Polish insurrection, and then retired to
Geneva. Here he formed a central com
mittee of Nihilists, and with but one slight
break, when he rushed off to assist the
commune in Lyons, arriving little too
late, and being politely conducted to his
train by the French authorities, he de
voted himself, heart and soul, to the spread
of his doctrines in Russia. He kept clear,
however, of the Russian police, doing all
his work through emissaries, whom he
properly accredited 1t is astonishing
that so active a conspirator should have
met with a quiet death; but he did, in
spite of being mixed up with every revo-
lutionary movement in Europe from 1S48
to 1879 1t is such men as Bakunin that
have bolstered up Nihilism, have famed
the flame into glow; keeping themselves
at safe distance, they have urged the
youthful and enthusiastic Of both sexes to
crimes which bring them to the scaffold.
Geneva is a very hot-bed of Nihilism, and
if the Swiss Government can be persuaded
to oust the conspirators from its territories,
great good will have been done. Mill
ism is dangerous to every form of Govern
ment, monarchical and republican, and
should be rooted out wherever it appears.

wider range in the studies pursued It isnot only,
nor chiefly, more brick and mortar with more
architectural elegance as well solidity, that the
times demand, but more appliances for educa-
tional uses, books, apparatus, cabinets, and also
instructors enough in the different departments to
give fullest time and attention to the different
studies Surely the next ten years may be expected
10 witness greater advancement than the last
years have shown. But there has been enough
good work done in the years past to justify COM
mendable pride in revising the memories of scenes
and events fast passing into oblivion. The usual
annual examination is to be shortened to two
days, Monday and Tuesday, June 10 and II. For
the Committee of Examination the Trustees have
appointed @. NJ Hyde, W. Il. Castle, A. I. Atkin-
son, D. B. Emerson. One day is to be given to
necessary preparations. On Thursday afternoon,
June 16, there will be collation., for all old pupils
and for invited guests in one Of the courts grsseo
TO be followed by songs and talks. Thursday
evening, June 16, Fort Street Church will be
opened for the exercises of the graduating class,
to be followed by poem from Mrs B. F. Dilling-
ham, and an address By Prof. W. ID. Alexander.

We, in a country flooded with silver
currency, have some interest in the results
of the Silver Monetary Conference, which
meets at Paris to consider the proposition
that the different nations represented
should enter a silver union for the un-
limited coinage of gold and silver, at the
ratio of 1 to 15.5, both metals to be coined
free of cost and to be a legal tender to
any amount" 1t is difficult problem to
fix by law an arbitrary standard. It in
wolves to the United State the serious dis
advantage of depreciating its present sill
yer Standard of gold to 16 of silver, a
depreciation amounting to per cent. on
present value. The trouble is that the
countries belonging to the Latin Union
have now more coined silver than they can
keep at par. It is a serious trouble that
threatens the nations of Europe, whose
silver coinage now amounts to $685. 100000,
about eight times the coinage of the United
States. India has not yet recovered from
the trouble on account of its silver coinage
four years ago.

A CORRESPONDENT, whose letter appears
in another column, complains of what is
certainly great abuse that is, the pay
ing of wages in goods bought by the en-
ployer. This system fourished in England
at one time, and is there known as the
truck" system. So great were the evils
and abuses entailed by it, that recourse
had to be had to Legislative assistance, and
it was put stop to by Act of Parliament
1t can readily be seen that an unscrupu-
lous employer can foist upon his "hands"
inferior goods; that in some cases he may
find it convenient to give goods which are
absolutely useless. We are quite sure
that we have the principal planters on our
side when we denounce such a system.
We trust that the Cabinet viii look into
the matter and see what powers it has for
stopping the abuse.

THOUGH not completely vanquished, the
smallpox seems to be slowly retreating;
or perhaps it is that it is dying out through
lack of fuel This week we have to report
twelve cases, only six of which broke out
in Honolulu. The number of deaths is
the smallest yet reported four. We earn
estly trust that the death rate may CON
tinue to decrease. Things look very
hopeful: there seems every prospect of
the tabu on inter-island traffic being
raised. Though the public schools have
opened, there is still some hesitation on
the part of parents about sending their
children; but the feeling Will, we hope,
soon wear off. The Board of Education
have engaged physician to visit the
schools. This gentleman has examined
each child to see that he or she is properly
vaccinated. The presence of smallpox
has told very seriously upon our school
population. Much valuable time has been
lost which it will be very hard indeed to
regain, but by good hard work it can be
DONE 1t is quite pleasant to see the roads
once more busy during the morning hours
with children on the way to school We
are glad to see that matters commercial
and social are beginning to tend to more
lermal condition.
