THE CHOLERA IN SPAIN.

The latest kilograms from Madrid
make apparent the grave fact that not
only is the cholera making great head
way in Spain, but that the present cpl.
demic is Of a most ~virulent type. Though
the percentage Of mortality in the cases
under treatment is not furnished by the
Spanish doctors, the official reports in
dictate that it is above so per cent. There
can no longer be any doubt that unless
extraordinary precautions are taken by
our own Government the dread epidemic
will be shortly introduced into the
United States. This may take place
through any of our ports. The history
of the epidemic of 1873 traces its origin
chiefly to the landing Of the oholera.in.

Orleans, and special vigilance in that d.

~ HAwAIIAN MINISTRY.

The Hawaiian Commercial Advertiser,
in speaking of the recent presentation OF
Minister Merrill to King Kalakaua, has
the following to say of the American
Legation there: "The point of the
greatest interest to us in Hawaii is to be
found in the fact that the United States
maintains its Legation here at all. 1t is
a mark of especial favor and friendship
which no other nation has exhibited
toward this little kingdom. The Com
missioners from England, France and
Portugal do not occupy the same diplo-
matte rank as the United States Min.
lister; hence it follows that this circum.
stance in itself enhances the dignity and
Importance of the Hawaiian Court among
the Powers. 1t shows also an unmistak-
able disposition on the part of the United
States Congress to adhere to it's tradi-
tional policy towards these islands.
Were it otherwise the appropriation for
the Hawaiian Mission would not be
voted in these days by a reforming and
economic Congress.
"And arising out of this considera-
ton is the further assurance that other
Powers do not fail to take note OF this
fact. There is no proceeding of Congress
more closely watched by the representa-
tives of foreign Governments at Wash
ington than the vote for the diplomatic
service, because it clearly indicates the
set of American foreign policy. The
hearty promptitude with which the ap'
preparation for the Hawaiian mission is
passed is a clear intimation to all whom
it may concern that this Kingdom is
under the protection and friendship Of
the United States. In itself this is suf.
ficient to beget respect from other quar-
tiers, and to render our independent
position absolutely secure.
"This is how we understand the posi-.
ton. It is how it is understood abroad,
and it must be clearly seen that it is the
strongest bulwark that could be erected
against the piratical policy Of any mari
time power seeking to acquire a COM
handing naval position in the North
Pacific,
"For the reasons stated We regard the
diplomatic oourtesies at Iolani Palace
yesterday as Of the greatest possible
measure of political significance"

AN ODD STORY.

According to the London Truth a very
extraordinary story is being told in Scot
land. 1t is to the effect that a second
cousin of the Queen has just gone to her
grave, at the age of eighty-five, Gun.
honored and ~unsung." Her obscurity is
due to the fact that she married the man
she loved, a Draw Scotch laddie, who had
no ancestry to boast of. Her letters
were all burned after her death, and
some few documents bearing or her royal
descent were taken "to q certain quar-
ter" ALI this is Every English, you
know" It is not difficult, however. to
read it in the stars that somebody's i'm
agination has been unduly excited.
We attend to these little matters very
different in republic. When "a base
born churl" aspires to and secures the
hand of a m~illionaire's daughter he is not
driven thereby into %obscurity. On the
contrary, he is lifted into sudden prom
inence. The girl exhibits her broken
heart to the public. the father at the
same time exhibits more or less i'll tenn
per. breaks a few chairs, possibly, and
then the balm of Gilead is applied and a
reconciliation takes place. The ambitious
youth is at once set up in business, and
the happy couple occupy the second
story front of the paternal mansion. A
monarchy does not know how to take
care of young men.
