LAHAINA SEMINARY.

The annual public examinations
of the above we'll known institution
took place at Lahaina the 18th and
18th inst. Among the branches of
study in which the students were
examined, were Geography, Arith-
metic, Algebra, Geometry, Trigon-
ometry, History, Theology, English
Grammar, etc., The classes did
very fair work, and, on the whole,
showed satisfactory progress, par
ticularly in their intelligent and
correct use of the English language.
This was particularly noted by those
who have visited this and other
schools in former years. Another
marked feature of the work at La
haina, is the attention given to vocal
music, as was shown by the songs
interspersed throughout the eXamina-
tons. Among the spectators were
Inspector Gen. Boldwin, Rev. A. O.
Forbes, Mrs. Thurston, DR.. and
Mrs. Carpenter, and others.
Rhetorical exercises followed at
Wainee Church, Lahaina, on the
14th. These were very enjoyable,
with the reservation that some of
the youthful orators seemed to forget
the size of the room in which they
were speaking. At the close
diplomas were presented to Messrs.
Robert Waialeale, ii. NJ. Naval,
Malakaua Ella, and Moses Meheula,
all of whom have completed the
required course of study in good
standing. Some other members of
the class will probably receive diplo-
mas at q later date.
sg School opens again on the 10th
of September, when another trial of
an Industrial department will be
made. Lumber and tools for a
carpenter shop have already been
sent by the Board of Education,
and are now OH the ground.

ORIENTAL TtL1FRcRE COMPANY.

Here is another financing Tele-
phone Company. This Company
started with Il capital Of f300,000.
1t was agreed in the prospectus that the
vendors should receive fj0. 600 in
cash aud fl00, 900 in deferred shares.
This amount was paid for a conces-
sion to establish telephones in
Alexandria and Cairo, for share in
a telephone exchange in the
Sandwich Islands. and for some tele-
phonic apparatus in India. worth
about fl,000. To whom the pur-
chase-money really went is not very
clear. Writing Feb. IA, 1881, to
Pender, M. p, chairman of the
Oriental Company, Mr.. Gardiner
Hubbard, one of the names which
figures in the prospectus amongst
the vendors, and who is Director
of the Oriental Company, says:-
"The interest of the ve.dors in the
Oriental Telephone Company is divided
as follows:-
10 The Bell interest. .two-hfths
>, Edison :, .two-nftns
=. Scotch :, .One-ffth
"The Bell interest Is subdivided into
tenths; each tenth therefore represents
! 6,000 shares. The purchase-money of
| e150,000 will be divided as follOws:-
Shares e100,000, cash 100000. total
| el50,000, less the amount already eX-
pended for the staff, instruments, and
| patents, which is from fl2, 200 to e15,-
600. / have reserved one of these tenths
of the Bell interest for Captain James
Pender."
Subsequently, the purchase price
was reduced to f75,000 in shares,
and 94O, 900 in cash.
The capital of the Company con-
sequently now consists of 100000
shares of fl each, on which los. has
been paid, and of $4,000 deferred
shares. The main business of the
Company has been to promote sub
Companies. 1t has received ESQ,
600 in cash, and 100000 of shares
of sub-Company for Egypt and
for Calcutta. But it may be asked,
what has it got to sell? The right to
use telephone instruments which are
neither better nor worse than many
others which produce the same
result. The shares of the Oriental
Company are at premium of about
GO per cent, and unless Egyptians
and Indians are to be accounted
such utter fools as to pay the Com
pany for what is practically free tc
the Oriental world, the shares canno
be worth par, considering the
ingenious manner in which con
siderable amount of the money
subscribed by the public to th'
Company has been divided amongs
financialists. s.-LondOn Truth.

III late instance was shockingly bad.
We have read with some little interest the

that grit to come to the relief of the readers
with good conclusion to the play.
We are sorry that s'sinbad," of last Issue
reads so carelesSfy or designs misrepre>en-
tation. We never begged pardon of Front
street men, never denied or took back any
assertion we made, and never showed malice.
We simply stated what another said and
"begged pardon IF eerong." We did not
propose a discussion of the sales on Sunday,
but spoke of Sunday deliveries, such as we
had seen. "Sinbad' charges us of kno,rkag
that Front street men sell liquor on Sunday.
while we have not the least desire to defend
them. we insist that we could not sace1r to
the fact of their selling, else the Grand Jury
would have called us. 1t is not our purpose
to vindicate Front street, but to defend our
self against the charge of "prejudice of hab-
it." We hope we have never formed the
habit of intentional violation of the laws, land
we have no sympathy with any one who does,
whatever street he may live on. Front street
men say they "dare any one to keep open on
Sunday In future" Now let Second street
repeat the "dare," and both may obey the
law. But please, "Sinbad," don't accuse us
of sympathy with Sunday violation.
