ART NEEDLEWORK.
Two Beautiful QuiIts mr. sale Rt Men,
ken'S for the Beneat OF the First
Presby terrain Church.

There will be on exhibition at Menken's s
this morning two beautiful Japanese or
kaleidoscope quilts, made by the Ladies'
Aid Society, which will be sold and the
proceeds donated to furnishing the First
Presbyterian church, now rapidly APP
preaching completion. The quilts are ex-
quisite specimens of needlework, and are
without doubt the most elegant articles OF
the sort ever seen in this city. The mate
rials are silk, satin, velvet and plush of
various calois, heavily embroidered and
and-painted, - and lined with fiowered
rose-.olored satin. They must be seen to
be fully appreciated, as no description can
give any idea OF their real beauty and ele-
gance. The price of the pair is $500 which
is very reasonable, and it is to be hoped
that they will fine purchaser, who, while
possessing himself of real works of art,
aid good cause.

Civil Rights I'm Texas.

AUSTIN, TEX, October 23.-Nice-Presi-
dent Hoxie, OF the International railroad
has written the Governor that business
will not justify running separate coaches
to accommodate negroes. BY the recent
civil rights decison, he says, we can now
make colored men take the seats we desire
The Governor replies that this difficulty
involves the peace of society; that there
is but one remedy, and that IL is the place
of the company to provide coach fol
each color. He sincerely regrets that the
road will not do what seems reasonable
and what other trunk lines have done.

The Plantation Labor,r,, Ca.e.

The cases Of the twenty-four German laborers
against the Kilauea plantation was decided in the
Police Court of Honolulu yesterday, in favor Of
the plaintiffs all of whom got Judgments releasing
them from their contracts, on the ground that the
Company had failed to supply each with a half
acre of land for vegetables, as stipulated in the
contracts. The evidence was that by mutual agree
ment by parol, and not in writing, this stipula-
ton had been laid aside in consideration of the
Company paying the wages Of a cook for the la
borers. On delivering the judgment Judge Bick-
erton said: Three cases have been brought
before this Court the parties being in Honolulu
aud within my jurisdiction. II has been said by
this counsel that some of them have the idea that
in this country they cannot get their rights. They
should disabuse their minds of this idea, for it is
not correct. There is no country on the face of
the earth where contract laborers are surer of
their rights than here The Courts are maintained
for the purpose of securing people their rights
vel as of Furnishing offenders. III cases tried
here are tried by the law Of this country, and not
Of any other country. The German Consul of
these men has interested himself and engaged
counsel for them. And even if he had not done
50, the Courts of this country would have seen
that their rights were secured them. The law
works for one side as well as the other The
plaintiffs may have got this idea Of theirs from
what they have IN the District Court at Kauai.
Perhaps things were not as formal there as they
ought TO be IN Court of law. II IL often so in
the country Courts. do not think a District Court
should be held in plantation restaurant. Per-
haps there Is no Court House there. Then there
ought TO be one.
II is admitted that the evidence in the other
cases about failure to provide the half acre of
land TO each man would be the same as in the
cases presented. The plaintiffs counsel relied
solely on this point of the defendants failure in
this respect, which he contends is sufficient in law
TO justify the Court in releasing the plaintiffs
from their contracts. 1 shall therefore have no
occasion to pass upon any Of the other matters
complained Of as failure to provide medical
attendance and so on. and upon the evidence so
far l should have had difficulty to find these
complaints substaDtiated. And besides it would
not be fair to make any conclusions on those
points before hearing the evidence of the other
side.
But these plaintiffs may feel certain that they
and all Others will get justice in this Court.
And on the grounds taken by plaintiffs counsel,
and admitted by defendants counsel, this Court
rules that the plaintiffs be released from all obl
cation on their contracts to the defendants.

On the occasion Of the presentation Of Mr..
Carter, the Hawaiian Minister, to the President,
by the Secretary Of State, the following address
was made. Mr.. Carter said
Mr.. President.-I have the honor to place in
Jour hands an autograph letter from my soyer-
eign accrediiing me as his Envoy Extraordinary
and Minister Plenipotentiary near the govern
ment Of the United States of America, and assur-
ing your Excellency Of His Majesty most earnest
wishes for the continuance Of the cordial and
Intimate relations that have always existed be-
tween his kingdom and the United States OF
America; also thanking you for the kindly atten-
tons and sympathy shown BY your government
on the said occasion of the death Of my late
lamented predecessor. For myself venture to
express the hope that during nv official connec-
ton with this government | may be able to for
ward the earnest wishes Of my sovereign, and
may be fortunate enough to enjoy the confidence
OF the government Of the United States of
America.
President Arthur responded as follows.-
Mr.. Carter.-I am happy 10 receive you as the
diplomatic representative Of Your sovereign. In
selecting you for this station he may be supposed
to have borne in mind your honorable antece-
dents, which are known 10 u.s. Such choice is
in itself proof Of the friendly disposition of
your government, of its desire to preserve those
amicable and intimate relations with the United
states which have 50 long continued. II is not TO
be doubted that your course in the career
which you are about to begin will be charac-
terized by zeal for the interests Of Hawaii not
incompatible with the rights and policy Of this
country. Such seems TO have been the guiding
principal of YOUR lamented predecessor, and to
have occasioned and sanctioned our grief at the
sudden close of his mission. II is most gratifying
TO recall the cordial attention with which every
measure Tor the mutual benefit Of the citizens Of
the two countries has been greeted by his Majesty,
and am confident that your official residence
here will aid in continuing upon its present firm
foundation that generous friendship which ex
lists between the United States and the kingdom

The Native Press

From The Hduaii Pas Aia0. April 9Th, issii
As public journalists, we have thought and still
think that the prey Of the present administration
is this nation. There is not a citizen but knows
the bitter end in which the present misconduct of
the government will result if persisted in. for
that end will surely come.
The prodigality of this cabinet which come TO a
crisis ON the 2lst of February last, is perfectly
evident. 1t has not been publishly denied by a
single officer of government, nor has the charge
which has been made public ever been authorita-
lively set at rest By statute passed in 1SS2,
the Minister of Finance is commanded TO make a
quarterly statement of the receipts and the ex-
penditures of the government, but this has not
been complied with.
Perhaps this is because the treasury has
dwindled and they are ashamed to expose their
own cowardness. 4 year has past and vet no
report is made. Does the cabinet think that ii is
higher than the Law that they need not obey the
iniunctions of the law. No, there is another
reason for il which is kept secret
How about The money for roads at Hilo, Hawai-
haze and Wailukn The amount spent is outra-
geously disprOportionate to the amount of work
done who Is il that Is nibbling at and consuming
these funds Has the government sought to find
out where these monies have gone to. No. They
are speechless for their hands guilty plunged
into the same bag.
Shall the intelligent people of this land and all
those who pay taxes look quietly on at these
iniquities without uttering word By no means
1t Is only for those whose throats are choked with
food from the public crib to stand speechless.
AaQ lulell.cul llke lllS approve
Of such deeds as these If we were TO approve Of
such action we should be like the hog for whom
the oven IS heated without his knowing that it is
or his own roasting
Though We have shown up the evil deeds and
iniquities Of these Ministers, which are sufficient
grounds for their expulsion, yet they are not ex-
PEELED. Let Us now ask the question whose fault
Is il that this cabinet is retained Is it not in
the power above the Ministers, Yes.
For that reason this is not the time for ambi-
Cuous speech, for talking vaguely and for ground
less fear Because the history of spendthrift
governments shows the bitter end 10 which they
come. It Is unnecessary for rs to name these
governments, for they are as familiar to Us as
household words.

ULlLI vs.. IsoA.
Before Mr. Jnsiicc Justin.

The question in this case is the identity of the
Patentec in the Royal Patent of the land ia con-
troversy under whom both the parties claim
The plaintiffs and defendants witnesses direct
" disagree ON this point, and the defendants wit
nesses are much more numerous than the plain
tifs.
The defendants witnesses also, mainly lived
near the land and claim 10 have known ~ patentee
when in possession Of it, and the continuous pos
session and claim Of defendant for p years.
The plaintiffs witnesses knew little about the
land, and never saw patentee in possession of il.
As against this prepondeence of proof for defend
ant the fact that plaintiffs grantor had possession
of the Royal Patent which she claims the defend
ant left with her in 1854 because she was the sole
heir of the patentee but which fact the defendant
disputes and claims that she fraudulentIy retain
ell its custody when left with hsr temporarily for
safe keeping; is insufficient to turn the scale
The PLAINTIFF grantor did not seek to enforce
her right in any way, for Is years. This long de-
lay throws doubt upon her story. I think it would
be unsafe TO credit 1t.
The old and decrepit grantor has no interest in
the case. The plaintiff bought her title on specu-
latiOn and IS entitled to favor from the Court.
On the whole think judgment must be ordered
for the defendant.
