come more readily than the cream from
less distinctively " butter breeds"
We arc unable to explain the pecuiari-
tlos Of this case, which, ms we unerstaud
the matter, requires two hcatings before
the cream comes to butter. Butter comes
less readily in winter, and less readily
from the cream of cows long in milk. The
feed is certainly not responsible fur it, and
we should look for il in TIC conditions Of

DISTANT THUNDER,

From New York, under date OF |
April 2G,h, We learn that report
has been presented to the Maritime
Exchange by II committee represent
ing the sugar interest, in reference
TO the importation of sugar from the
Hawaiian Islands, which, under the
Reciprocity Treaty, comes in free.
The main points Of the report are as
follows:
Since the treaty was approved
there has been q rapid increase in
the sugar production from the Sand
wich Islands, and a virtual substitu-
ton of the high grades for the low
grades known before the treaty. The
hiyn grades arc not entitled to be
entered into this country free Of
duty. Under the treaty the average
grades of importations have risen
from Nos. Z and 10, Dutch standard,
in 1876, to Nos. II and IA in 1881.
The grades Nos. IL and IA being
neither muscovados, brown, nor
such sugars rs were commonly i'm.
ported known as the Sandwich
island sugar, as required by the
terms Of the treaty, are not entitled
to free entry, and every pound
should have paid duty. This increase
in the quantity and Improvement in
the quality of Hawaiian sugar is the
result of increased planting en-
couraged by the bounty offered and
the use of improved machinery, inn
ported mainly from Europe. The
bounty offered to shippers of sugars
from the Hawaiian Islands to this
country naturally encourages the
piantcrs-that is, tempts them to in
crease their production by illegiti-
mate means, such as importing the
low East India and China sugars and
changing them by means of improv-
ed machinery into high grades,
which can be imported into this
country rs if they were the products
of the Hawaiian Islands.
"The consumer on, the Pacific
Coast derives no. benefit from the
treaty. The treaty, as at present
interpreted, caused loss of S2,5O0,-
OOO in revenue to this Government
last year, and this will be annually
and rapidly increased. Already the
imports of sugar fostered by the
treaty have increased from l7,4SO,-
6S2 pounds in 1876 to 10000, 900
pounds in 1881, with absolutely no
benefit to the consumer. 1t is grave
Injustice to those cultivating sugar
cane i'll Louisiana, and may at any
time put in question the revenue
now received from sugar grown in
other countries. The treaty is an
entire failure in its objects, so far as
it was to benefit this country. 1t
causes an unjust discrimination
against other equally friendly
nations, which are larger consumers
of the products of this country than
any of the Hawaiian Islands. 1t is
q direct attack OH the sugar industry
of Louisiana, which should be pro-
tected, and in our opinion advantage
has been taken OF it to import, free
of duty, sugars that do not come
under its provisions"

A Bona Eide BondhoIder.

To the American
BALTIMORE, April Is, 18S2.-It is
understood here that your paper
represents the debt-payers of your
State, and that you have fearlessly
and consistently advocated an hon.
orable and just settlement of the
debt of Tennessee. Hence feel no
hesitation to call your attention to a
point often urged by opponents to
an honorable adjustment of debt
of this nature, viz: that such evil
dences of Indebtedness are mainly
held by "bloated bondholders," who
bought up such securities at low
market rates, and are in a position
to stand any amount of reduction
upon the face value of bonds. l
admit there is some foundation for
this style of reasoning, when applied
to bonds of some of our States, but
it does not apply to Tennessee.
Your State sold its bonds for fair
equivalent, at time when the Gov
ernment paid a higher rate of in
terest (premium on gold included)
than is payable on the bonds of your
State. They were readily taken up
for permanent investment. 1t must
be borne in mind that any depres-
sion in value was entirely due to
the action of the Legislature and
Judiciary of the State.
The time was, and trust still is,
when the name of Tennessee was a
SYNONYM for manliness, integrity
and honor, hence investors regard
ed your State bonds as perfectly Sc
cure and reliable. They are largely
held by persons of comparatively
small means and trust estates, for
instance, our Peabody Institute.
AS an evidence of this fact, would
mention that when your Supreme
court rendered its opinion as to the
validity of the funding act, sales of
bonds in New York, the great finan-
cial center of our country, amount
ed to only say two million dollars.
A large portion of these sales We're
made on margin or speculative
basis, comparatively few changing
hands. 1t seems to me this shows
conclusively that the bulk of the
bonds are in hands of parties like
myself, 10th to part with them at
heavy sacrifice and still hoping for
better things from your great and
prosperous State.
/ trust you will continue to urge
a lust and honorable settlement of
the debt. One of the best and wis
ests of Gods chosen people, says:
"Trust not in wrong and robbery; )"
and one greater than David says
"Love thy neighbor as thyself'' and
"Do unto others as you would have
them do unto YOU" The citizens
of your State cannot afford to step
down from an elevated position of
morals and honesty, and | hope for
the sake of such numerous bond
like myself who cannot af-
ford to suffer loss, and for the sake
of the good name of Tennessee,
your citizens will unite in an ad-
iustment of the question alike just
