it = utterly absurd to insinuate that His
Majesty the King has been consenting TO
any sentiment Of antagonism amongst his
native people; his foreign friendly and
socia! relations both at home aud abroad
are 80 numerous, and his patronage of
foreigners has always been so liberal, that
il i impossible for anyone acquainted with
the facts 10 entertain such an opinion for
one moment.
The Batavia HaadelsJLad in comment
ing upon the State affairs in the recently
conquered country Achin, says that I" The
new mosque for Mahometan worship now
building on government account at the
town of Achin has received some handsome
lamps from Paris, and the building is ex-
pccted To be completed with a gilt cupola
about the middle Of December" This is d
remarkable item Of news, inasmuch rs the
Christian State Of Holland with the view
to reconcile people hostile to its rule con-
structs u place of worship in conformity
with their creed. But other Christian
states deem ii a wise policy hot only not
to dictate the creed of their subjects but to
assist III the support of forms of worship
widely different from that of the rulers, yet
calculated to promote public order. Thus
il is well known that Great Britain has
subsidized the superstitiOns OF her great
Indian Empire, and this line of policy is
just and proper, because the object of gov
not being To establish creeds or
arts. but simply to promote order and the
best physical welfare of people widely diff
fering in their ideas, principles and educa-
ton. We think there should not be a
shadow of religious bias in an enlightened
constitutional government, its duty being
to protect all its people without any dis
elimination with respect to their creeds, so
long as there is nothing in these creeds sub
versive of established law and order. Even
should it be desirable on the part of our
Chinese fellow denizens of these islands to
erect Il Josh-house here, the government of
the country could not consistently inter-
fere with or hinder them i'm such a cause,
but we are glad and rejoice that a JOSH
house has not been erected and that there
is "a sufficient endeavOr on the part of our
religious people to perhaps supply the re-
ligiOus wants of the Chinese mind. We
hope that the great and faithful minis
tratiOn of all true Christian workers
whether Catholic or Protestant may
be always sufficient to meet the religious
requirements of its population, and that
the Hawaiian Kingdom will always be re-
cOgnized as Il Chris ian community.

- The steam whaler North Star, which
called in at this port on Wednesday for orders,
brought the sad intelligence of the loss of one
of her own boats with its crew, consisting of the
third mate and five seamen. On Monday after
noon, when the North Star was off the west end
OF the island of Molokai, IA school of whales was
discovered and four of them were fastened on to.
Two of them had been secured when n heavy
squalI of wind and rain came on. When 1t
cleared of it was found that one of the boats had
lost the whale it was fast to, and that the other
boat was missing entirely. The vessel cruised
about in search of it all that night and the fol-
lowing day and night without success. Mr.. Car
ter, the chief mate, who is in charge of the North
Star until Captain Owens joins her at Kealake-
kua, is of the opinion that if the boat was not
lost during the squall, her crew would naturally,
when night come on, pull for the Molokai shore
and his hope is that they have safely landed
there. From the position of the vessel at the
time the new light on Molokai must have been
visible and may have been instrumental in saw
ing these lives. The third mate who was in
charge of the boat, is believed to be the brother
in-law of Capt. Willard. The arrival Of steamers
from Windward will be anxiously looked for with
hope that they may bring good news of the
missing men.

G11efte newspaper, and what [ hear OF about
town. The first question is-what does the
Ga>eile mean when ,, says that among the repre-
sentatiyes in the next Legislature there - but one
man to represent the planting interest Now
does the Gazette mean that there ought TO have
been more men elected on thar ticket 1t be
thinks -, how very strange he should wait until
DOW, when the election l. over, to speak. Ii l.
no time now 70 howl he should have urged mat
point long before the election. 70 my view. one
representative is quite enough il there were
more to represent that interest, each one would
have a bill to pass with his views, and the con-
sequence would be u mass Of worthless rubbish.
The planting interest is worthy Of one good repre-
sentaive-no more aud no doubt he can d. all
that the planting interest demands.
Then again, the Gazette says The great planting
industry enables the uuskilled labnrer % com-
mand wages that IN any other country he would
be laughed at ion asking. Now, | wonder ii he
can mention any civilized and Christian country
where unskIIled labor commands less wages than
on these l,Iands-excepI la some country where
slavery still exists?
And still another COMPLAINT. | have been in
formed by good authority that work is to be
stopped Oh the new Palace in II short time,-
merely finishing the work that is on hand. Now
1t seems t. me that the stopping of work on
the Palace in it, present state (being nearly
fnIshcd) Is certainly ii very foolish act OF some
body in uuthority-layIng the Government open
to be ridicu!ed by those who know the state oil
the Government finance. A READER.

think that "A man chosen by the general
voice Of the people would represent alone
his own interests ? No. We 10 uptso under

not 30 understand his duty as u represent

A FoREIGSEF
MAUI, February 25dh, 1882


Mr.. EDIToR,-Lct US prevent, by all means, the
seduction OF members OF the next Legislature by
officials, or others ,-irum entIcing them to ban
quets or feastS Tor the purpose of carrying their
votes TO gain II bill to suit certain individual pur-
poses. and always studying their own interests.
This regime has been carried out mere for years,
50 much 80 that the whips. or lobbyists, blsked
in the sunny smiles of the late Cnief B,ron of the
Exchequer. Now then let us have no more of
this lobbying. or buying and selling. Represent
yorr constituency will, honor and they in return
will honor you. and elect you again to the halls
of the legislature.
Also. it is not essential to the interc-:s of the
people that one or two families should monopo-
lize everything, unless We had some great families
inherltIng great talent, which is not the case.
Fair play is a jewel of the rarest kind. Then let
US have it. As for instance, any individual of
good character and three years residence here who
has ttken the oath of allegiance, is Competent. if
capable, of accepting minor offices under the
Government, providing No welI-qullifed native
makes application Tor the same. if So, being suit
able, he must obtain it.
Our natives must have every chance and en-
enlargement and it ID desirable to see the chiefs,
or Ads, Of the Kingdom restored 10 their origin
al rank for the maintenUnce Of the respect of
their Hawaiian brothers. Why not ~? The
Missionaries Say they have civilized the Hawaii
ans 60 years ago. II 40. we will take it for
granted he is as much advanced, if not more,
than many foreigners. in the urts and scien-
ces and the advance Of civilization.
If the native. as the late Attorney General
Philips expressed sDme years ago, g stands upon
the same fn0thold OF equality as the foreigner
why then tabu his mouth from the produce Of his
own dear native soil, or that Of any other? If
liberty ? What good has resulted from all the
civilization of the American Board Of MIssonar-
les, or that Of the French Mission, for over half
a century? Alas Where is your faith? 1t
must be very weak indeed. Then hnild it upon
a solid rock and chow with strength to the world
you mean not hypocrisy. If all were civilized
here years ago, what occasion for other mIssiona-
ries Why to pick the tares out of the corn ;
and there is now H great deal more tare than
corn.
Returning TO a consideration of the Legislature
it seems strange many times that bills that pass
the House are vetoed, or hove overb rard without
any further comment. This frequent use of the
veto without any declaration Of objections must
be rebuked. Outside influence should not cancel
the voice of the legislature, for the Legislators
represent tho people, and we the people Place
fully all confidence and honor in them. There
fore gentlemen, do your duty. fearlessly and in
dependently and the people will stand by you,
now and forever, one and indivisible.
