Hawaiian Silver,

EDTroR GAZETTE In j. M. As communication
of the 18th inst he expresses sympathy for the re-
tail dealers of the Islands on account of the vexa-
lions and runous straits they are reduced to in
order to exchange their silver receipts for gold or
exchange wherewithal to pay for their goods. He
has our thanks.
His proposition however for wholesale dealers
TO raise their prices to enable them to accept sill
yer in payment did not have his usual thoughtful
consideration before being sent to you. Were he
a trader he would know that the majority of goods
sold have regular scale of prices and for re-
taller to ask more would be to lose custom; conse
quenty il would be wise for him to stand The loss
in price and he would find that the higher rates he
paying would be even more than the pre-
MUM he now pays TO exchange his silver for gold
OF its equivalent.
j. NJ. II. hits the nail on the head when he says
it is bad business for a Government to make
and circulate legal tender money and then do
mOnetse it. still he Will have noticed similar vacil-
lations in the policy n of the present govern
ment in many instances. He has merely noted
the culver of the tottering of the government to
its ruin, as predicted when portfolios were ten
dered 10 the present ministry.
]. NJ. II. and /, and all who love Hawaii-nei
like to see each man in the kingdom have his
rights, personal, property, and political, and OF
course to see the people as a united whole as
government, have their whole rights.
How it rouses our ire to even hear of repre-
| sentative accepting brides in any form for the
passing of law that will deprive single indi-
vidual of iota of his rights or the people at
| large of theirs.
In any instance where party has overmatched
the government and it has suffered loss, the peo-
pies rights have been infringed on and as the
people condemn ministry whose yacillations ma
chination, or trucking conduct has allowed it,
so il should be held responsible for the loss.
That the people lost % per cent of the $4,000
the cost Of the 100000 kRlakaua dollars (which
came in duty free and was worked of on a great
measure on the labOring classes) is a fact no one
denies. That 81 100000 kalakaua dollars is more
than IS wanted for change $40 only being legal
tender, all will admit. propose that Mr.. Spreck-
els whoever pocketed tbs profit return it to the
\ Treasury, and that the Government, being thus
enabled to do so without much loss dispose OF all
but S500.DO0 of the Kalakaua dollars, which will be
| found ample for change. By this means great
wrong will be righted and one step will have been
| taken to rstard the fall Of the Government

The Chamber of Commerce of this city having
entered into an agreement with the Government
with regard TO the receipt Of Government certif-

receded from by the Administration, the Chamber
Of Commerce exposes the PsOlic1 fies by the fol-
lowing resolutions
Whereas, This Chamber by resolution, did
agree, on the 18th day of November last, TO re-
eeive the certificates OF deposit of the Hawaiian
Treasury above ten dollars in value as the
equivalent in value Of U. S. gold coin after Dec.
LIST last;
And irLeisas, This action of the Chamber was
taken for the purpose of facilitating the oper-
alton of the Currency Act passed by the Legisla-
ture of 1884, and was based upon a statement of
moneys in the Hawaiian Treasury known as
special deposits, and held for the redemption of
the said certificates OF deposit, the statement be-
ing as follows

not taken any steps to convert any Hawaiian silver
coins in the Treasury into L. s. gold coin but
have used a part of the appropriation made by
the Legislature Of 1884 for the purpose of defray.
ing the cost of such conversion in a manner not
warranted by law, and have so increased the pro-
portion of silver TO gold in the special deposits
10 make the redemption of the certificates in L. s.
gold as contemplated by the Currency Act Of 1884
impossible;
Aud rlereus, committee Of the Chamber has
been authoritatiyely informed that certificates OF
deposit redeemed with L. S. gold coin, amounting
TO $4,000, have been re-issued for silver coin con
trary 10 the provisions of the Currency Act OF
1881:
Aud whereas, The Hawaiian Treasury has this
day refused TO redeem the certificates of deposit
with U. S. gold coin;
Therefore be IL Resolred, That this Chamber

Simplicity in Christmas presents seems to be
the order of the day among English Royalty. The
crown Princess of Germany sent Queen Victoria
two landscapes painted by herself and the Princess
Beatrice gave Prince Henry of BattenDerg, her be-
trothed, Christmas card painted in water color,
her own handiwork. 1t is thus described: "The
background is of the deepest blue, and around the
drawing are designs of elder bushes, Christmas
roses and winter flowers. Two little Gupids call
attention to Byron's famous lines on love-" The
great uncrowned in Honolulu and elsewhere might
follow the rule of simplicity with advantage.
Christmas presents are heavy burden on many
people.
