men who had known the deceased went to
the place where the body lay for the purpose
of attending the wake They entered the
front door quietly and passed into the front
room. where several women were carrying
on conversation in low tone OF voice.
The excellent qualities of the deceased were
being rehearsed and all seemed TO be bowed
down under the great all ction. On a sofa
in the room lay the form of woman. The
three young men crossed the floor softly,
knelt beside the sofa aud uttered fervent
prayers for the welfare Of the spirit OF the
departed rhe women in the room ceased
talking when the young men knelt down.

The prayers we're finally concluded, and
the young me rose to their feet. In rising
the skirt OF one young mans coat touched
the face of the form on the sofa. Instantly
her eyes opened Woe aud she raised herself
on her elbow. The feelings OF the young

THE FOWL STEALING BUSINESS.

EDITOR BuLLET1N;-More chickens
gonel I" "Anglo-Saxon," after dis
covering the loss of four Cor five)
"roosters last night, is an ardent
sympathizer with the gentleman who
signed himself "A Victim" in the
.4dcertiSer of the 23rd current in
the loss of his fine fat chickens.
Further, the public ought to admire
his courage and determination, es-
pecially in the following: 'Unless
the authorities come to our relief we
must protect ourselves and supple
ment the warning note of our watch
dog by the bang of our shotgun.
For myself l propose presenting
charge of buclshot to the first night
invader of my premises" natu-
rally admire the "ring'' of these re-
marks, but as we are unable to eS-
tend our police force into the suburbs
without exposing our center to the
attacks of thieves and robbers, and
not having any money in the trea-
sury to pay for extra police to guard
the suburbs of our town, we GER
tainly will be left to protect our
selves. We must not, nor have we
the right allowed us to use the shot
gun Cor any other gun) here, as
eide n decision rendered not long
since by our Supreme Bench, where
all Hawaiian or foreign citizens were
adjudged to be barred the legal right
to use deadly weapons to protect
their persons (saying nothing about
their poultry). Now, sir, could any
one, for one moment, be induced to
believe that our courts would allow
the patriotic gentleman TO chang
away into our Government pets with
out giving him y spell, shorter OF
longer, over in Captain Tripp's cas-
tie, by way of a reminder of Ha-
waiian Jurisprudence, which allows
a thief to flee without giving the ag.
grieved the right to fire to check his
flight? No, Mr.. Victim, l have ex'
amined our laws and can only impar'
to you my sympathizing aloha! but
powerless to assist. We certainly
have not the right under the Ha
waian laws to use the shotgun, moi
even on a Chinaman the only alter
native left us is to use q stick, err
we have the lawful right to use on
influence endeavoring to put thes'
Chinese chicken thieves out of thi
I country. | am one of "Victim's s.
, admirers, with always loaded
shotgun on the rack ready for ac
o ton, but am compelled to allow
y to remain there and trust to m,

n After writing the above | hav
o seriously taken the matter into con
sideration and have arrived at tn
conclusion that it is much easie
y. to eat my fowls than sit up at nigh
y and shoot thieves contrary to th
u dicta of the judges of the Suprem
Court of this Kingdom, right c
wrong. Yet | must confess ths
:, there would be more satisfaction

JUSTICE TO MIR. TILDEN.

The New York Tribune which for
years has bounded Mr.. Ti'den with a
m%alignancy rarely equalled i'll the
annals of partisan malice, and which
invented the cipher dispatch calumnies
against him, is at last compelled, by
the high place which the recent publ
cation OF his writings has given him as
q political author, by his correct private
life, by his benefactions, and especially
by the general recognition OF these
facts by thoughtful men of all parties,
to do him partial justice. In a recent
issue it says of him:-''If Mr.. Tilden
had become president in 1876 he would
have set the democracy upon its feet
for years. He would have postponed
problems of politics and the tariff. He
would have checked wild experiments
in finance. He would have harmonized
and drilled the clamorous factions OF
his party without too scandalous an
abuse of the patronage. He would
have organized campaigns without
quite turning the treasury into a ma
chine shop. He would have transacted
the business of the executive office with
punctilious care, and observed its forms
and ceremonies with irreprOachable
decorum. He would have been re-
spected; and when at last he retired he
would have passed for perhaps the
very sblest administrator who ever
occupied the presidential chair"
