a Handsome Vehicle.

Amongst the many turn-outs that moved up
down the streets of Honolulu on the Kings
Birthday, one of the most conspicuous on
account of its size and beauty was Il new omni-
bus which Mr.. James Dodd has just placed on
the lines of travel in and out of town. Mr..
Dodd gave his order to Mr.. G.. West, instructing
him to design and finish the vehicle in a style
''par excellence knowing that he could safely
depend upon having the work done in the best
possible manner. Nor was he disappointed
for a. critical examination of the design, make
and finish of the bus shows That m experienced
mind laid out the work, and first-class workmen
executed it, We give a brief description of it as
it stands, in order that our readers may know
what kind of work in the line of heavy vehicles
can be done here.
The body platform is placed on the latest and
most improved style of patent springs, they, as
well as the entire iron work, being of the most
superior quality. The fifth wheel" and cir
cular connections are admirably arranged for
the pole. The running gear is painted a hand
some yellow, picked out with black stripes,
which sets it off to great advantage. The sides
of tho body are in cardinal red with blue borders,
and are ornamented with two emblems-the one
being the American Eagle and flag, and the
other a fiery steed of the far west. These pic
lures are beautifully painted, and are real works
of art. The side openings have rich ebony bars
SET tnree 1eel apart, VIII uedNy Dlach curtains OF
fine leather in each space. On the top is n
strong iron railing; expressly designed for the
safe carrying of packages. There is also an " out
side'' seat behind and above the drivers seat,
where passengers can sit and enjoy a smoke
while going in or out of town. On either
side of the bus are lights. arranged so
as to be plainly seen, and, in addition,
a powerful "head light" is fixed below
the drivers seat. Entrance is affected to the in
terror by means of two broad steps. The inside
platform is of a pleasing slate color while the
upper part is white. Handsomely designed pic
lures of wreaths and flowers grace the front and
back of the interior, and in the front panel the
name of the maker is neatly emblazoned. The
sides are handsomely set off with bright colors.
The seats, which will comfortably accommodate
twenty persons, are cushioned in leather-cush-
conjecture. A bell rope is hung on pulleys
from the inside of the roof and is connected
with a gong so that the bus can be stopped at
the pleasure of the passengers. This bus is in
tended for the Waikiki route, and the travelling
public may rest assured that for comfort and
rapid transit, the new coach cannot be equaled
by any other public conveyance in Honolulu !;
and We hope that the proprietor will find that
his endeavors to please the public will meet
with an adequate reward.

Clearly the distinction must have been unknown

Give strong drink unto him that is ready
to perish, and wine unto those that be of heavy
hearts. Let him drink and forget his poverty.
and emembe his misery no more. Prov, 81
chap, 6 and v.
"Be not drunk with wine. wherein is ex-
cess.--Ephesians, 3 CHI, ISv.
" But they also have erred through wine. and
through strong drink are out of the way; the
priest and the prophet have erred through strong
drink. they are swallowed up Of wine."-Isaiah,
Oh. %. V. Z.
The turning of water into wine at the mar
rage feast is thus spoken Of: This beginning
of miracles did Jesus, in Cana of Galilee, and
manifested forth his glory" There is nothing
that 1 have ever been able to discover in the
Scriptures that could possibly induce a belief
that the wine here produced was essentially diff
terent IN properties from that of any other wine;
even to that used by the communicates Of the
CorlHthioH Church or that upon which the
Pretsfs and the prophets spoken of by Isaiah got
drunk; or which inebriated Noah and caused
Ham tc be cursed or which Lot drank when he
went out of Sodom, and which caused him to
become the grandfather of the Ammonites and
the Moabites. Christ says; unless We believe
Moses and all the prophets, neither will We be-
lleve though one should be raised from the
dead;'' and if we believe them, it does not APP
pear that either Noah or lot fell into disfavor as
consequence of their overindulgence in wine;
but rather that overindulgence might be con-
strued into an excuse for that which followed in
either case. ADsrAINER.

A HECATOMB OF. VICTIMS.
BURNING OF 4 HALIFAX Pooh ASYLUM. WITH TERRI
BILE Loss OF LIFE, AND HoRRID EXHIBITION OF
AGONY.
Halifax, \. s.. Nov. About II o'clock last
night a fire broke out in the bake-house in the
basement Of the Elmez Poor Asylum building.
How it originated is not very clear, but the smoke
Of the smouldering wood spread through the
dormitories and caused the utmost terror among
the 400 or 500 inmates OF the building. There
was no immediate danger, and so the officials Of
the asylum did not take steps to secure the safety
of the inmates The attendants who had not
been relieved, and others who lived in the neigh
borhood ran to the building and found the smoke
issuing from the windows all over the building,
but no flames were 70 be seen. In the west wing
old women and children were seen at the windsws
crying to be let out, and, as they began breaking
the glass, it was feared that they would throw
themselves to the ground.
The work Of saving them necessarily was slow,
but finally that wing was emptied. ln the mean
time the flames in the basement spread to the
long air shaft Of the elevator, reaching to the top
Of the main building. The draught here swept
the flames upward with tremendous force, and in
a few seconds the heaviest part of the c~onfagra
ton was In the top of the main building. The
story Just under the caves in this building was
used as q hospital, and in 1t there were about
seventy patients, most of them helpless. The
fire was now fercely burning right 10 the hos
