The Band has done an extra
amount of work this week and we
have had an extra amount of pleasure
in consequence.
IT was rumourcd in town yester-
day that three bodies of Cinnamon
had been thrown overheard from the
Madras, the night before.
Work OH the foundations of
Campbcll's new block is finished,
and the first stratum OF brick work
has been laid. ..
PEOPLE need not get frightened
that smallpox will get abroad in the
town, as every precaution necessary
is being taken.
WHY were so many barricades
built on Queen street yesterday
morning? They surely weren't alI
needed to allow work to be done On
the roads.
The Cinnamon at the immigration
Depot at Kakaako were most of
them shipped yesterday. Strings of
them were to be seen passing up the
town.
YESTERDAY the balance of China
men from the Glenelg (some 600)
were landed at the Kahakaaulana
Quarantine Grounds. No signs of
ill health are observable amongst
them.
WE believe there is no law which
authorizes the luna of a gang of pri
soners to hit them OF administer cor

time, and yet this was done on
Queen street yesterday morning.

In all districts of the town we find

A quaint preacher once said that he
was disposed to entertain a very ill opin-
ion of misery in general. Perhaps, if we
could see it in its true light, we should
all h. Id it quite as censuralle as it is pit
liable, and the loud complaints we now
endure would be soltened into whispered
oonfusions. For life is largely what we
ourselves make it. Even in our transient
moods we can observe this. We look
upon a landscape one day when our
hearts are light, and it looks beautiful
md glad. It another time, when we are
differently attuned, the same scene looks
dull and fiat. The same social circle Will
seem brilliant at one time and dull at
another; the same event will produce
elation of spirit, depression, or indliier.

ondly, that Cusfer-with the question
unsolved as to whether he disobeyed
orders from Terry or not-surely made
fatal mistake when, on the morning Of
the 18th he divided his regiment into
three batallions. And thirdly, that the
action of Reno, in leaving his position in
the timber, which could have been easily
held, and was close to and threatened.
the Indian village, is to be greatly CEN
sured, for it allowed many of the hostiles,
who otherwise would have had to defend
their homes to enter the fight against
Custer. And even when joined on the
hill by Benteen, there was chance of
saving some of Clusters battalion by a
movement of the whole force down the
river, for by all of the evidence found,
Custer made his attack just at that time,
and the fight lasted full hour, and even
if not successful in reaching Custer the
amount of Indians necessary to stop .
determined force the size of Reno's would
have eased the pressure on those that
were battling for life and no doubt pray
ing for assistance. And as for the danger
to the command in making the move;
they had poor position. and almost any
place that they might have had to stop
at, could have been as easily defended.
To those that have read this history or
other tales Of frontier warfare with tho
Sioux, these Impressions must have soli-
dified in their minds, that these people
never make an open face to lace fight,
that when the whites are anywhere near
equal in numbers to them, they invari-
ably sneak off and when having ten to
one or one hundred to one they do at
tack, determined charge which would
speedily end the battle is never made by
them, but like the wolves, their progeni-
ters, (see Darwin) they depend entirely
on craft and cunning, during the fight,
and show their courage afterward by
mutilating and dis6guring the dead.
When all together on the hill, Reno
had, counting packers, who were all well
armed, $50 effective men, and many old
frontiersmen and Indian fighters, whose
judgment is unquestioned, to whom the
writer has put the question, have agreed
in saying that that number Of white men
properly led, could not be stopped by all
of the Sioux force then in the field, for
they will no more stand before a charge
than make one.
The only saving point in the history
of this question is, that the company off,
GERS with Reno did not know that Gus
ters command was in such extreme
need-had they known, there is no
doubt that, under Capt. Benteen, they
would have gone through fire, if neces-
sary, to the relief-for drawer men than
fought on the hill that day no country
can boast.

A SUMMARY OF THE

An Impending War Between
China and France.
And Other Choice Bits of
News Fresh from the Wire.
Booming Billings to the Fore.

Booming Billings to the Fore.
BILLINGS, NJ. T., Sept. 9Th, 1ss3.-Fint
two sections Of the Willard party arc
speeding along the Yellowstone river.
Big Horn was crossed about 8 O'Clock.
The weather delightful, track in excep-
tionally good condition and the country
is looking we'll. A broken wheel has
thrown the two last sections Of the train
four hours behind. Billings was reached
at 9 o'clock by forwardssection and the
trains were salnted by music from the
Fort Custer Military band, booming of
cannons and the whole town most elab-
orately decorated. Trains stopped here
two hours. The remarkable exhibits of
beef, mutton and vegetable attracted
much attention.
Ex-President Billings after whom town
is named is with the party and was the
recipient of much attention. A perfect
ovation was given him at the grand
stand and in response to urgent calls he
made short but an extremely enthus-
iastic and telling speech saying that he
has always had the most abiding faith
in the future of the great northwest and
no place had held a warmer place in
his heart than these thriving cities
along the route of the road with which
he had been so long identified he felt
that the town of Billings was located in
. favored spot with surrounding coun-
try weose fertility could not but build it
up into one of the great cities of the
Northwest. He had the day before at
tended the dedication Of the laying of
the corner stone of the new Dakota capi-
tai building at Bismarck and what pride
it would be for him to come some day
to attend similar dedication at Billings
when that city shall have been selected
as the capital of the great state of Mon
tana. No city is better located for the
Capital than this. Mr.. Billings was fol-
lowed by Ex-Secretary Evarts in tell
ing speech. Willard and Billings were
both recipients of testimonials from the
municipality. Party left Billings for the
west at noon.

Beseher's Reception sa the Coast.
San Francisco, Sep. G-The trustees Of
the Plymouth congregation agreed to pay

lectures. Judging from the slim crowd
at the first lecture, the probabilities are
that the trustees viii lose money.
Beecher is not popular here, owing to
his utterances regarding the Chinese
question and in q published interview to-
day on the same subject he expressed
opinions which will tend to increase his
unpopularity. He say that the treat
ment the Chinese have received on this
coast is shamfhl and ridiculous, while
all the rest Of the world is adopting
most liberal and advanced course in mat
tiers Of freedom, persons 60 and come
without restraint, here is little strip of

selfish policy Of exclusion, which policy
China long since abandoned. Beecher

War Between France and the celestials.

LoNDoH, ENG, Sept. 6, 1883. - Private
letters from Pekin say that Ii Hang
Chang is really in favor in peaceful So
luton of the difficulties with France
while the intriguers around court are
urgent in their cry for war. Prince
Kung one Of the conservative menu
bers of the government expresses the
opinion that war will he q signal for
number of outbreaks in the empire.
The Empress is reported to be fearful
for the permanence of the dynasty and
inclined to favor peaceable measures.
The Standard of Hang Kong says that
the people of China seem to have little
fear of the results of fierce war with
France and we believe with new anna
mites and vastly improved disciplines,
their forces will make them nation far
better to cope with foreign enemy than
they were in the war of 1860.
Chinese papers urge immediate action
to be taken to prevent annexation by
the French to any portion of the Chinese
territory, and expresses indignation that
such an attempt should have been made
at time when China was at peace with
France.
A large number of Chinese employed
on boardof French vessels have deserted.
Captains find great difficulty in obtaining
hands.

Latest dispatches received from Hal
Pong announces that the French Admir-
al will block parts of Canton and Panl-
Isl unless Chinese troops withdraw from
Tonquin frontiers. Solid Chinese mer-
! chants are leaving Canton because their
letters are opened and they distrust the

LONDON, Eng, Sept. 6, 1883. - The
Times editorially says France is steadily
| drifting into war with China and that
the latter were vulnerable only on
those posts that occupy easy information
al positions and any blow struck there
will be felt through Europe. The shock
to English trade in the East Indies will
,e most disastrous. The relations be-
tween England and France will be SER
iously embittered thereby. Dislocation
of cotton trade would throw out of en-
ployment thousands of operatorsin Ian
cashire factories and the revenue to the
revenue to the English Crown from In
dia would show serious deficit. Times
points out that in the event of war Ger
many, Japan and even China themselves
would secure more of the foreign coasting
trade than France.

Mr.. westerfsld has introduced In
the State Senate . bill to repeal the
SALARY Law, the Act to take effect on
the LIST Of March next, which Was re-
fsrred to the Judiciary Commute. The
passage Of the bill involves . return to
the fee system, which would prove .
saving to this county under the pres
emit adjustment Of salaries. The fse
system, however, is beyond doubt 2 far
less desirable method Of ;empnerating
public officials than by tho payment Of
salaries, and IL would seem that an in
telligont, just and equitable apportior-
ment Of salaries throughout the State
by q revision Of the existing Jaw. would
DO preferable to a return to the old sys-
tom. Much may DO said on either
side, but in the light Of the facts adj
duced by the test Of tho -as .ov years,
the weight Of the evidence Is in favor
Of the salary over the fee system. By
the salary plan, the people know just
what they have got to pa, and while
under Il there Is no inducement to
SNAKE business" The counties are
the gamers by a legitimate increase;
neither Gro the officials bankrupted by
an unexpected falling of in the rove
MUGS. 1t will probably bo urged that
as tho fees are the index Of the Coun-
ties business. the rate Of official COM
pensation should be governed by that
standard, hut it should be borne in
mind that under this system, the pub
lie advantage derived from o lack of
criminal prosecutions-which consti-
tuto the main bill OF expense in County
government-are never proportionote
with the loss sustained under their nc
emulation. z
