Tho San Francisco Consulate.
sAN FRlNc1sco, August Isl, 1855.

DAN tRANCfsco, August Isl, 1855.
EDIToR GAZETTE: Our business community re-
ceiyed a severe shock, In the summary removal of
Mr.. Severence, the Commercial Representative of
the Hawaiian Islands at San Francisco for so
many years. 1t has been lasting topic of CONVEX
sation in commercial circles for Mr. Severance
has been long and favorably known TO entire
business community, and has possessed in an en-
lnent degree, the confidence and esteem of every
one with whom he has come In contact. The un-
due haste in getting possession of the Office was
singular, TO say the least. The new Consul has
not been recognized at Washington and was no.
de fdeto consul but as we learn, he insisted upon
taking possession of the consulate in twentv-four
hours after the arrival of the Alameda, Mr. Sew
erence gracefully yielded possession, rather than
embarrass the business community, and trusted
the next arrival from Hawaii would bring some
reason for this summary act. The steamer arrived
but brought no information whatever. You can
imagine his feelings on boarding the steamer Ala
media, to meet the Queen, in response 10 a cordial
and friendly letter from the King, received by the
previous steamer, to find instead of Her Majesty
the Queen, us ORR successor. Could anything be
more undignified, more unkind than this. What
influences have been brought to bear upon His
Majesty the King, are not known, but are sur
missed .
The Hawaiian Government has made a mistake
in this removal, Mr.. Severance's influence in be-
hall OF the Treaty of Reciprocity was very great,
and 1t has been IN "a large degree owing to his
ability and, thorough understanding of the
subject, that the merchants and leading business
men of this Coast. have sustained and advocated
the reciprocal relations of the United States and
Hawaii. The Statistical information familiar 10
our Senators and Representatives i'll Congress. and
the articles contributed in defence of the treaty
during the late Congress, were the result of his
efforts. He vas foremost in drawing up the petit
ton In behalf of the mercantile interests addressed
TO our deleg1tion, and which was sigrcd by two
hundred of our leading business men, in defence
of our treaty from attacks made by the unfriendIy
press of thiscity. His removal at this time when
the feeling against reciprocity is by no means fully
alayed, does not augur well for the future of this
treaty, andwill seriously impair his usefulness in
future. II is not necessary to allude to his well
known courtesy and hospitality TO the people OF
Hawaii, Who visit this Coast, there are many
recipientsof his kindness now in Honolulu, thai
can testify TO this. Mr.. Severence has now estab-
llshed himself in the commission business with
the confidence and respect of this enti.e commu
nifty, and it is for your islanders and business or
to see that he shall receive at least, portion Of
their baslness, as some return for his untirinl
efforts IN their behalf here and in Washington.

Abetting the Enemy.
W. G. L. U.

Ths great evil of the present century and that
to Which reformers bending their best energies
Is thf evil of intemperance In America the tenn
peralce question will soon have an influence in
politics as great as that exerted by slavery in for
mer years, and 1t Is not improbable that before
constitutional prohibition is carried as it is cure
to te sooner or later, that men and women work.
lnGhgalnst the liquor interest, will be prosecuted
by the loss OF the social favor of those in high
places the destruction of their property and some
wllleYen lose their lives Just as abOltionists were
perecuted when opportunity favored in the days
of slavery. But the work of reform must 90 on
and be done, or intemperanco will be come the
national stu of that country and by and by reck-
Oning will be had for it Just rs there was for the
national sin of slavery.
In this country one special vice so Oyerops every
other that intemperance cannot be called The ma
uonal sln-hcentiousness holds uuquestionubly
that bad eminence--but the advocates of temper
ance tell us that intemperance is the handmaid of
every other vice 1t is certain there is no other so
wide spread as this. The reforms which the Irish
clamOr so continually for in Ireland are Durely
national and can effect only political and social
questions among themselves. And so with the
Nlhlists IN Russia and with the discontented in
France and Germany, their wrongs, like the re-
forms they ask for, are national and as compared
to the temperance REFORM local.
The terrible suffering entailed upon the inno-
cent through liquor, the waste OF productive labor
the poverty, crime and degradation which come
through liquor have more than once been spoken
!
widespread evil-eVen those who are directly in
terested III liquor rs n means of making money
will own this. 1t is strange, i'll view of this great
evil, that any good man woman should be found
who does not throw his or her influence heartily
against it. And yet there are good people who arc
among the most influential in abetting the enemy
There was an overseer one of our plantations
once fined for standing and looking on when two
men were fighting because he did nothing tC
separate the men or to stop the alteration Doing
nothing, either one way or the other, made him
in the eyes of the law, an abettor of the quarrel
so those good people who look on this temperance
reform, withholding action, and sympathy and
money, at least abet the evil of Intemperance. By
neglecting or refusing to give their influence ia
the temperance reform they are abetting the
saloon-keeper and the owner, and giving at least
negative encouragement to the sale of that which
ruins men, breaks up homes and causes poverty
disease and death. Perhaps no class abets the
enemy more than those women who stand on 'No
mans land" They do not reflect that, by THEN
indifference to an evil they might help to over.
come, they are losing one grand opportunity OF
making the world brighter and better for their
lives.

poDulation has been decreased by COG, ex-
cess of departures over arrivals. Seeing
the small number of foreigners resident
here. this loss is very serious one, and it
must be remembered that the most sturdy
class in the community, the mechanic, goes
largely to make it up.
Now taking a look at the Chinese we
find that the increase of natives OF from
the Flowery Kingdom has been, l6S3 Tor
the year up to date; we have had I,55f
japanese imported during the same time,
making total of $500 Asiatics brought
into this little kingdom within the space
OF seven months. 1t must further be re
membered that the bulk, in fact one might
almost say the whole of this increase con
sists Of healthy, young males s-the mum
Der of female Immigrants have been so
small as to I've practically zero in matters
of calculation. With such an increase
OF males, what kind of morality are we to
expect in the islands? There have been
revelations made in the Pal MaI GdEcttc
which have sent thrill Of horror through
thc civilized world. The immortality Of
the Chinese in our midst would afford ma
tprial for series of somewhat similar
articles. The good people OF this commu-
nifty do not know tithe Of what is going
on. under their very windows one might
say.
Is it any matter of surprise that immor
ality should exist among the mass OF Chi
nese males here? Certainly not-a mere
knowledge OF human nature will show
any one that it must exist. And yet the
Government make little effort to bring
women 10 the country.
The day will come when this matter, if
not grappled with, will so force itself upon
public attention, that IT must be heard,
but it will be heard in a most frightful
form. This question Of over populatinS
with Chinese males, is one which affects
every one in the community. This warn
ing is most likely TO be treated as the
prophecies Of Cassandra were, 1t Will un-
donbtedly incur strong hostility in many
quarters, but it must be remembered that
