Ex-Governor Page, the former president
of the Rutland road, whose recent victory
in the protracted trial of the suit brought
against him by the present management
is fresh in the public mind, has issued TO
the stockholders IA pamphlet of rs pages,
which contains his own statement OF de
fence, the arguments of his counsel, the
Judges charge, the verdict and many pa
pers relating to the case, all of which he
gives as reply to Il report issued IN 1881
by committee of the directors lie says
in preface: "AS you can readily under

suffered and great expense incurred by
me, arising from the charges made, Whlcn

My defence is now laid before you. Lest
my action should be misunderstood, add

Not long since Gen. w. w. H. Davis of
Doylestown was appointed pension agent
IN the Philadelphia district. His first
act was to remove clerk who is wound
ed Union soldier and to put in his place
Joseph Barbiere, who was lieutenant
cononel in the Confederate army. This
he did on the ground of long standing
friendship. The Philadelphia Press has
been looking up Baribere's record 1t did
not have to search very long, as its repres-
entative was able to find book of which
he Is the author, printed in 1868, three
years after the war, the larger part o.
which he wrote while prisoner of war,
but carefully revised before publishing.
The book shows that this man who takes
the place of il wounded veteran was bit
ter secessionist and Il Halter of the North
three years after the war. jefferson
Davis is eulogized as ''our late beloved
chief" Wirz, the officer III charge OF An
Jacksonville, is styled the murdered
Wirz - Wendell Phillips is stigmatized as
the negro thief and slanderer of the South
ern people, and Abraham Lincoln is called
il political scavenger" All through the
book he speaks in terms of cOntempt of
the Union soldiers, of which the following
Is a sample
The old saying that it takes nine tailors to
make ii man. has been entirely disproVed in
are of this department and have proven
themselves equal to nine Yankees.
His estimate of Abraham Lincoln is eX-
pressed in the following language;
1t is amusing to witness the efforts of the
Abolitionists to defy their master, Abraham
Lincoln, the "jOkist.' He has
bra ms so has IL hog. These ignor-
ant fanatics worship man, and that man Abra-
ham Lincoln
Toward the close of his book he gives
the following advice to the people of the
South:
/ Let the Southern people bdc their time
/ which will surely come. and then, when the
south is rcdiViVuS, take your true position
as, rest assured, the South and West will con-
troll the country, but ut present you can't
make the mountains come to you.
The following note is appended to the
book:
Six years have elapsed since these scraps
were written. Constant travel since the wal
and want of opportunity have prevented theil
publication, yet the writer deems them us ap.
prOPratc to-day rs then and has no altera
lions to make in them, regretting naught.
And this is the sort of men for whom

there must be scores of deserving Demo

How the Game Was Played.

\ very clever case of Swindling in which
an Englishman is said to have been impli-
Gated is reported from Paris. The other
day an itinerant musician who carried I'M
der his arm weather-stained violin en-
tered provision shop in the Rue DIES
Martyrs and bought "A pound or two of
cooked ham. suddenly discovering he
was moneyless, he left his violin with the
ShOpman and ran home to get the triling
sum of which he was in need. During
his absence Il carriage drew up ut the door,
and looking stranger, hay
ing alighted from it, entered the shop and
ordered large quantity of goods TO be
sent to Lord Russell ut the Grand HO-
tel. While thus engaged, he caught sight
of the violin, picked II up with the ar OF
a Virtuoso, examined it very carefully, and
finally offered to buy 1t for 900 francs
The shOpman explained that the instru-
ment was not his, but promised TO see
what could be done. The stranger then
withdrew and the ragged musician, who
soon after returned with his money, glad
ly accepted 500 franks for his violin, The
jubilant shopman thereupon put on his
best clothes, and taking his purchase
went to the Grand Hotel. But alas nc
Lord RUSSELL was known at that hos
telery, and the unfortunate provision deal
err slowly awoke to the fact that he had
bought an entirely worthless violin for
thirty-twO pounds

Female Mail Carriers.


Female Mail Carriers.
From the Boston Couricr.l
The indianapolis Herdld thinks it would
be well to employ women as mail carriers.
We are afraid that women are not adapt
ed to the occupation. A mail carrier must
get over the ground expeditiously, and
this is something Il woman could hardly
do il she had female acquaintance on her
route When two female friends meet
they are extremely social and wonderfully
ELUSIVE. We think the system would OPP
crate in about this way

plimentary party last night, at his ele-
giant residence, King street, to Mr.. VIM
G. Irwin, Hon. S. G.. Wilder and Mr.
VIM. Center, who are to leave for the
Coast by the Alameda to-day. An ele-
CANT repast in native style was spread in
the large lanai of the building, which
was tastefully decorated with profu-
sion of palms, ferns and flowers The
company sat down to table at 10 O'Clock,
the following invited guests being pres

During the evening several toasts
were given and speeches made with
special reference to the new mail service,
with the results of which the guests of
the evening were closely identifed-Mr.
Center, as the gentleman who had con
Quoted the negotiations; Mr.. Irwin, as
agent for the new line; and Mr. Wilder,
representing the Wilder Steamship Com
pany, by whose steamers many of the
tourists would no doubt travel and be-
come acquainted with the great natural
attractions of the Islands. The party
broke up at an advanced hour, highly
gratified with the entertainment, which
must be classed as among the most sue
cessful that has ever been given in the
CITY.

pics; olitbut, for the reason already
stated, it is not at all probable that he
should lend himself to policy antag
onizing the Democratic Administra-
ton. Indeed, il is net easy to under.
stand how such a policy could be
attributed to the Hawaiian Govern
ment, however constituted. It would
argue on its part a wantOn disregard
OF the interests of the Kingdom of
which it is utterly Incapable. To
suppose such disloyal and reckless
scheme possible is TO insult the intel
ligence of the community.
Furthermore it is absurd to assume,
as those with whom the foregoing
rumor originated do, that the indie
pendence of this Kingdom is INSOFAR
able from the Reciprocity Treaty
with the United States. This is not
SO. Hawaiian Independence pre-
ceded the treaty, and it would re-
main undisturbed should those inter
ested parties in the States who are
fighting it succeed in their object.
Our sugar interests would suffer; but
the international guarantees of the
independence of the Hawaiian King
dom would remain inviolate. The
abrOgatiOn of the Treaty would in
yOlve loss of revenue until new
commercial relations could be estab-
lished but this would not affect the
integrity # the Kingdom. 1t would
simply compel economy in various
directions. The Kingdom existed,
with an independent government,
twelve years ago, and before
the Treaty, with an income
under S3OO,OOO a year. 1t can do so
again if necessary. Annexation to
the United States or to any ether
country is simply out of the question.
But this rumOr is shrewd
move, taken up by the enemies
of the Treaty, to prejudice it
with the Democratic majority in
the House of Representatives when
Congress meets. L: only remains for
the friends of the Treaty to denounce
and expose this dishonest attempt in
order to ensure its ultimate triumph.

The Tax Books.

The tax books for Honolulu were de-
livered to the Finance Department yes
terday by the Assessor, Mr. Fred. II.
Hayselden. The total amount of taxes
for this city is $137 ,921 80. This is a de-
crease of 81, OS3 from last years amount.
There is a large increase in real estate
and corresponding decrease in personal
property. The falling off in personal
property is very large in the principal
business blocks of the city. A great
deal of the decrease was, however, made
up in the suburbs. The carriage, poll,
road, carts and school taxes show an
increase. The dog tax is $3.50 less than
last year, and the insurance tax also
shows a decrease of $500. This is owing
to atechn icality of the law that has been
taken advantage of this year by the
agents of insurance companies doing
business here.

Aloha.

Avery, Signor Farini, Mr. Charles
Thrower and Mr. A. Marchand, the
members OF the Farini Opera Company,
leave to-day by the Alameda. During
their stay in this city this talented troupe
of artists, though not meeting with the
success they deserved, have given us a
splendid series of musical selections and
representations from leading operas.
They leave behind many warm friends
and admirers. 1t is simple truth and
justice to say that Signor Farini re-
deemed his promise to bring with him
to Honolulu Il company of able artists.
1t is his misfortune, and that of this
community as a whole, that his efforts
were not more highly appreciated and
generously responded to. To one and
all of this talented operate company we
say, Aloha
