AFTER getting to the top of the poll
and counting l,l53 votes; and after eXpa
tiating at length upon his love for the Ha
waiian people. the senior member for Ho-
nolulu, seems somewhat in doubt as to the
stability of his position. A considerable
space, in last weeks AductiSer, is devoted
to enlarging upon the popularity and the
political influence of the aforesaid mem
Der: his praises are sung column after
column, until one is compelled to pause
and think. To wonder whether a gentle
man who possesses all the excellent quail
ties imputed to him, would really require
such flourish OF trumpets. or whether il
is not that the imputed virtues are but
pinchbeck, the popularity an empty bub
bic, which may soon burst, and the flour
ish of trumpets is required to call attention
to what might otherwise be forgotten
The latter seems to be the true solution Of
all this trumpeting.
The p. G. 4. also indulges in a lit
tie glimpse into the future. Just lifting
up of the edge of the curtain as it were
very small bit is lifted, but everybody is
to be satisfied with that for the present
One can only see just a faint reflection Of
the brilliant light that is behind. The
performers names are on the bills, but
nothing is to be known, as yet, as to then
dresses. or their roles. "The people have
chosen-await the action of their repre-
sentatives are the prophetic words The
wealth and enterprise of the country had
better attend to its own business. which is
by no means looking after the political
affairs of the nation. Oh, dear no; men
who have improved the lands, brought q
revenue to the state by developing its re-
sources, should have no voice in the Gov
ernment of the country; indeed there
seems to be an awful warning held out to
them. Peace or destruction are offered
them; acquiesce in the will of the peo-
pie. DO not even dare to discuss upon these
questions and all will be well. But only
Just venture to breathe that property
holders have right to ventilate their
opinions, or to mix in any way in public
affairs. and then look out don't expect to
be spared. Visions of chains and racks
and all kinds of torments ought to rise
before the large property eyes.
After getting through all the Adr9iiser
has to say on the subject, one is almost
tempted to regard every property
as a mild sort of criminal. A being not CT
the people, n creature outside the pale of
the law. And the larger his property the
greater his crime. Only in one case, it is
to be surmised. will there be an exception.
And that exception must be . the gentle
man, who holds an important enterprise
in the heart of the city" He commits no
crime by entering the arena of politics; a
sort OF commission direct from on high
absolves him of all sin in this matter
Well, it remains to be seen whether the
awful threat of the p c. 4. viii have the
effect of closing discussion; the unhappy
property holder may wilt, but it is far
more probable ne viii straighten his back,
gird up his loins and insist on having
something to say.

asked to make our defense. 1t is assumed
that we are guilty. The vindictive
charges against us, are eagerly published
everywhere. The denials made to these
charges by honest competent persons are
ignored When the Chronicle made its
charges, a specific denial of them was
made in the BRllefia by J. Mott Smith
This IS republished no where Il means
this, that a charge of slavery is sensa-
tional and readable. A denial of it is
prosy, and men Will not read it, never
theless, they viii act upon it. The way to
get ourselves from under the cloud. is by
no means plain. II we could button hole
every man who thinks badly Of MS. we
might convince him. To reach millions
Of readers and convince them that we
who are interested parties, are telling the
truth, Is 2 most difficult task. Though
France and England are separated by a
mere strip Of water, the average French
men and Englishmen misunderstood each
other, and both understand the Americans
And If these people, for years, and even
centuries, refused to do each other justice,
what hope have we that they Will do us
justice We would care less about it, if
we did not have so much of our CONNER
clal prosperity at stake. Recognizing the
difficulties of the situation, we must pre-
pare to vindicate ourselves in that way,
which circumstances shall indicate. There
are many wrong ways Of doing a thing;
and only one right way. Which is it :?
He Is, indeed, a profound statesman, a
wise man, supreme master of knowledge
in human nature who shall show us that
right way. Public opinion is often like a
jury. Put good defense before it in one
way, and it refuses to accept it. Put it in
another way, and It strikes unanimous
verdict directly opposite Against the
charge of slavery, it is not so much the
substance of our defense which should
concern US, as the way we shall make it
tell in our favor.
In neglecting this, we may make fatal
mistake. A distinguished and most sue
cessful advocate once said to a student,
study the jury. Your business is to con
vince them, and present your case in such
way as to make them believer It" Though
the task before us hard one, and Is the
consequences are serious, we have hope that
we shall adopt such a course as will vindi-
cate ourselves

The FdlkinJUrg has brought the news of
the conviction of Guiteau. The case has
occupied about ten weeks, and may be re-
garded as unique in criminal annals
Never has a criminal been permitted to
play the mountebank, to brow beat and
abuse witnesses, to insult both the bench
and the bar, in the manner this man has
been allowed. 1t seems to be all over
with him now, however, his posturings
and his ratings have been of no use to
him, and there seems but little doubt, that
about next July, he viii pay the legal
penalty of his crime. The error in deal
ing with this man has been decidedly on
the side of leniency. 1t has apparently
been the desire of the Court to allow him
every chance to establish his defence.
His life for the past twenty years has been
reviewed; the biography OF his family
/ has been gone into, to show that he was
hereditarily predisposed to insanity; his
letters have been put in evidence; num-
| bers of people, who have one way or
another had some communication or con
nection with him, have been summoned as
witnesses. II the scenes in Court were
at times very unseemly, the closing one
was at least impressive. Judge POrter's
address was a lengthy one. His last words
are well worth repeating. When political
assassination is so much talked of over
the world, when plots against rulers are
being continually discovered. it is high
time that all countries should unite, and
that the political assassin may find "no
refuge ON the face of the earth"
Judge Cox's final charge to the Jury
occupied a little more than one hour. He
laid down clearly the points to be con
sidered Dwelling OF course, especially
upon that portion of the evidence which
was put forth to establish that the pris-
oner was insane. He pointed out that
whether the prisoner was sane or insane
was a broad question for the jury to settle,
there was debatable border land left be
tween sanity and insanity. The strongest
point made, probably was, that the jury
must bear in mind that the man did not
become irresponsible by the mere fact of
his becoming partially insane" The
charge appears to have been, as far as can
be judged from the resumes that have
been published in the California papers,
to have been thoroughly fair The jury
did not take long to make up their minds
upon the matter, half an hour sufficed for
them to deliberate and return a verdict of
guilty. 1t Is to be regretted that the yer
dict was received in such an unseemly
manner by the crowd assembled in Court.
That the execution VIII follow as speed
ily as possible upon the verdict of guilty
must be the desire of every good Ameri-
can citizen. There is an effort going to be
made by Scoville to move for a new trial,
but the general opinion in Washington is
that, no new trial viii be granted. 1t
would be terrible blot upon the Justice
of the United States if Guiteau be allowed
to escape from, orshp through, the meshes
of the law, to find his death at the hands
of the mob

WHEN the Mary TethaB. arrived in San Fran

that all on board had been vaccinated, DR.. Lawor,
the Port Physician, refused accept and placed

was Investigated by the Board of Health, and. III
course Of evidence, 1t came out that the Chinese
had been vaccinated while at Honekong. but rs
there was no vaccine virus II that port, muciage
had been used instead. The Captain OF the Mary
Icfhas' was well aware that there was no vaccine
virus IN HOngkong, as he had, himself, applied to
the Port Physician and was informed that there
was none. The Mates evidence as given at the
investigation was extremely interesting: he said
that physician came on board at the port of
Hongkong and vaccinated the Chinese passengers,
IN hls presence, with mucilage. He knew it was
mucilage because he asked the Doctor to vaccinate
him, and was told that he had no virus. The wit
ness also stated that he reported to the Captain
that all on ard had been duly vaccinated, and
did not consider 1t his business to expose the fraud

are pumped out, mixed with water and spread

As necessary part of the system, each house Is
directly connected with the sewers and plentiful

TaE House Committee on education and labol


have recommended a bill TO regulate limit and

Mongolian invasion to go on quietly, seems 10
be very strong, and 10 be taking hold of peo-
pie east the Rocky Mountains. A number of
restrictions in the shape of registering and carry
ing certificates are proposed. No vessel, owned
wholly in part by American citizens, shall take
on board any Chinese, except accredited officials:
the infringement Of this law will involve penalty
of $500 for every chinaman carried. Whether the
law will pass or not remains to be seen; but some
idea may be formed, of a section of the public
