AT THE AKAsAKA PALACE.

The .Mainichi ShiRbun, writes as follows:-His
Majesty the King of Hawaii went, as we stated
was his intention, to the Akasaka Palace on the
18th inst. at 2 p. IN. where he had an interview
with His Majesty the Emperor. Refreshments
were partaken of, and a conversation ensued on
the political administration of Japan and Hawaii.
The King left at about three o'clock. He was to
have visited the national exhibition again that
morning, but the visit was postponed owing to
the ~inclemency of the weather. The King studies
his people greatly, and has long paid great
attention to sanitary affairs. He has established
a lazaretto on the island of MOlokai, under
proper official superintendent. The patients
all receive medical treatment and are also en-
gagged in such employment as they are acquainted
with. Thus they can be cured of their disease,
while at the same time they can earn a livelihood.
The Khdi Biyotn CLeprosy Hospita) at Toxic,
sent a present of a quantity of medicines used in
curing leprosy to Hawaii, through the japanese
consul in that country, in November 1879,
Availing himself of the visit of the King, Mr..
Goto Shobun, the president of the said hospital,
sent his son, Shochku, to the ERriOktCdA on the
the 9th inst. to inquire whether these had proved
efficacious or not. The son had an interview
with the Chief Commissioner of Colonial Affairs
of Hawaii, after which His Majesty received him
in audience, and thanked him for the present.
He put many questions as to the origin of
leprosy, the methods of curing it, &c, to which
his interviewer gave minute answers and present
ed a pamphlet, written in English, containing
explanations about this disease. His Majesty
read it through, and expressed much pleasure
with it saying that should he ever visit Hawaii.

possible assistance during his stay.

WE understand that His Majesty Kalakaua,
King of Hawaii, who is the grand master of free
masonry in his own kingdom, has consented to
meet the Masonic Fraternity of Yokohama and
Toxic on Monday evening, when a ball will be
given in his honor at the Masonic hall. The
ball, however, will have nothing of an official
character, and will be strictly limited to the
subscribers and their friends. We are requested
to add for the information of nonresident as
well as resident masons that they may secure
their names being added to the subscription list,
which a is now being circulated, by sending a note
to any one of the leading members of the craft,
whose names can be ascertained by a reference
to the directory.-Th Japan Gazette, March 10th.

The Masonic BALL

The Masonic Hall has perhaps never been better
filed than it was last night, owing to the antici-
pated visit of His Majesty the King of Hawaii.
On receipt of the sad news of the assassination of
the Emperor of Russia, His Majesty telegraphed
his inability to attend. For the same reason no
officials were present. The programme was,
however, carried out, and we can congratulate
the Fraternity on a most successful evening.
The HOchi Shinbun writes as follows On the
18th at 10 a. m. His Majesty the King left the

SOME of our fellow citizens are a good deal
exercised about the reception accorded to the
King of Hawaii, but it seems to us that Japan
has very little choice in the matter. Her guest
is either royal on not royal, and if the former,
would it be either hospitable or eXpedient to tell
him in so many words that there are kings and
kings, and that he is just Il little below the degree
at which recognition of rank ceases to be possible?
If His Majesty were a cannibal or a Zulu there
might be some grounds for the predictions of
ridicule to be presently incurred by Japan, as
well as for the cutlery against unnecessary ex-
penditure raised by certain well-meaning but
somewhat petulant folk. He happens, however,
to be II most agreeable and accomplished gentle
men and Il dignifed one to boot; a gentleman
who was for two months the honored guest of
the United States, and to whom the President of
Il country which in point of wealth and impor-
lance could afford to carry Il good deal of weight
in a race with the states of the old world, did
not hesitate to accord Royal honors.-The Japan
Daily Mail.

In An article on the Guiteau trial the
Tribune says There is no man As g ner'
Gus or as ready to shove his neighbor up
higher As the American. But the whole
tendency of his training is to give him an
exaggerated belief ia himself. simply be-
cause this training is based on the knowl-
edge that every place is open to him. He
is not nursed by his mother or educated by
his father. rs he would be in Europe. rs a
future blacksmith OF small grocer. but
rs possible President. II he succeeds,
he holds il due ts his own efforts
II he fails. circumstances, not he, are in
fault. Out Of this exaggerated vanity
grow our worst National defects of charac-
ter. manner. religious belief even. How
small is the class of educated Americans
who even know that quiet repose and not
pretension is the mark of good breeding
How many petty. trivial sects have sprung
up among Us simply because individuals
like Guiteau felt themselves qualified to
speak for the Lord! In = word, this
raree show at Washington, disgusting as
it has been. may serve good purpose. if
each American takes it Is IN exaggerstion
only Of actual natioaal characteristics. and

Emery Storrs on the Gulteau Trial.

CHICAGO. Dec. Is.
Emery Storrs, who returned from Wash
ington Monday, is of the opinion that Quit
eau will be convicted. He thinks Guiteau's
course and the general drift of the evidence,
will be sufficient to convince the jury that he
is not legally insane. As to Judge Cox's
conduct of the trial. Mr.. Storrs thinks the
Judge is determined to give the prisoner the
largest latitude, SO that there could he no
error in the record of the proceedings.
