1884, II, sos: 1885, 17,l67; decrease, 43l. Steam
vessels, 1884, Gill; 1885, 5,7O6 decrease, 405.
Unrigged vessels, 1881, 2,92l; 1885, 2,6i0: de.

the number Of vessels is more apparent than

the part of their owners to report their loss or
sale. II IL estimated that the real decrease in
the number of vessels owned IN the United
States during the past year was about 300.

JUsT as the country is beginning to enjoy
the first fruits of an industrial revival It is
to be expected, in the natural course Of
events, that the Democrats in Congress will
get up tariff scare and paralyze business
again. But there is no evil that has no
compensation. A raid on the tariff this
winter will elect Republican Congress
next fall.

Serious ILLNESS of Mr.. David Beck.

We regret to announce that Mr.. David
Beck, of San Francisco, is dangerously
i'll at the Royal Hawaiian Hotel, and his
physician hardly thought he would live
through the night. This young gentle
man, who is well and favorably known
in Honolulu and throughout the King
dom, has been living on these Islands
for some time past on account of his
health, but contemplated returning to
pe pes about the MANS T1en 10 e@
from Australia. He was ailing for sew
eral days, and complained of pressure on
the base of the brain last Sunday, but
no serious results were apprehended.
Early yesterday morning he was attacked
with commissions in his room, and from
that time forward he experienced a sue
cession of attacks, from the effects of
which he gradually sank until he finally
lost consciousness, in which state he re-
manned when his condition was last re-
ported.

and the buttopsI No. Well, tell me where
they are and pll get them"
Mrs. Jones proceeded to sew on the but
tons, while her husband sat on the side Of
the bed and encouraged her with words OF
praise for her wifely caro- and thought for
his comfort, occasionally remarling that
60 where ne would he would always say
there wes nothing In the world like q good
wife
Then he went TO the wardrobe and brought
out several pairs OF trousers, q coat, two or
three old vests, ami o number OF shirts, from
all Of which buttons were missing, and cheer
lily observed:
while we're at It wen mako night Of

Two hours later, when Mrs. Jones. with q
weary sigh, removed the thimble from her
finger, Mr.. Jones patted her on tho cheek
and said:
II say it again, my dear. say It again,
that wherever I go / Will make it known,
proclaim it from the housetOps, shout It in

gets up in the middle Of the night to sew
