Opposition.

The planters are put down by the Advertiser as
tue opposition" opposition to whaI The or
gan implies the Government, which We do
deny, for as body not whisper OF complaint
was heard against either His Majesty or His
Maiesty's Ministers, yet do plead guilty as be-
ing on the opposition, but not in the sense as
charged by the 4drertiser.
We are in opposition to all poor things, and our
yearly gatherings, for the purpose of improv-
ing and making them better. We are in opposi-
ton to poor sugar marts, poor plantations, poor
cultivation and we decidedly oppose poor crops.
We are opposed to poor sugar see. We are oppos-
ed TO poor roads, poor laws, and a poor execution
of good law. And we think the poor things point
ed out in the able reports at late meeting fully
lustihes us IN all this opposition.
Now we will 60 home and HoJk and think and
try and improve things.
And the goodness only knows what we will be in
opposition TO at our next meeting. There will be
no doubt the Reports Of both good and evil
Resolutions and apparent harsh words but don't
b. alarmed if We tread on somebody's toes, for
Faithful are the wounds Of a Friend.'
Believing we do that suspicion Is resting upon
cur laws, their Just execution by some outsiders
and wishing to know whether their fears were wall
founded We have asked His Majesty to appoint a
Royal Commission to be composed of some Of the
ablest and most talented subjects to examine into
the labor laws Of the Kingdom-hunt for defects
suggest improvements if possible, and report to
the next Legislature.
This commission was not intended 10 oriminate
the King or his Ministers but solely to examine
the laws relating to labor.
This are much interested in, we use great
deal Of labor and are Labor and Supply Com
Panyn and wish all suspicion removed from the
minds of the people in those countries from whence
We draw our supply.
If the laws We wish examined had been celestial
laws as love thine enemy "do good TO those
that hate you" etc, which to all eternity never
can be improved. We had held our peace, but
the laws asked TO be examined are human laws
and man being weak and fallIble his laws are
necessarily imperfect, and all nations, even the
most enlightened deem it wise to try and improve
their laws from time to time. to suit changed con

With regard 10 the continuation of the service
by steam between San Francisco and the Colonies
the NetrS LefieTpublishes the following comments
1T is now stated that the UHion Steamship
Company will sail between Sydney, Auckland
and Honolulu, and there connect with the Gee
anlc line, controlled By the Messrs. Spreckels
when service was first established by Messrs.
lulu was made, as is proposed, but Improved so
unsatisfactory that it was soon abandoned.
Sir Julius Vogel, the Postmaster General of New
Zealand, is personally so we'll aware of the in
conveniences and delay in transferring mails.
passengers, and freight at Honolulu, that we can
not believe that he has entered into the arrange
ments attributed to him until we have oonfirma-
tory advces, which at present are totally lacking
The outcome of all this is that at present it is i'm
possible to say what has happened. All we posi-
lively know is, that New Zealand has appropriated
SlJO,OOO for the continuance of the service, and
that she IS actively negotiating With steamship pro-
prletors to accomplish that end. We have no doubt
whatever but that service will be continued in some
way. 1t is to be regretted that the United States
Government has proven so remiss in regard TO the
important interests that lie in this direction. The
Sydney Herald gives figures which show that we
sent 10 the Colonies in 1884 exports which were
$lO,OOO,OO0 in excess Of those of 1876 This is an
increase Of one million dollars year. Surely so
promising au outlook ont not to be blOtted out for
the sake of paltry annual payment for the carry
ing OF mails. IL is plain that very important
trade has already been established, and that il
is capable of a very considerable expansion. Under
any circumstances we must maintain our cOnnec-
ton with the Hawaiian Islands, and, that bridges
over one.third of the distance there ought not TO
be any doubt about traversing the remainder. II
we wantonly abandon this exceedingly promising
channel of trade it will be idle TO talk about seek
ing and oultivating foreign commerce.
