Without doubt in good time tue District
ought to build handsome bridge across
Rock Creek upon the line OF this great ave
nue.; but at least one other bridge aor Isi
that creek is much more needed than thii
one. Another bridge between GsorgetowI
and tie city proper Ia greatly to be desired
The necessity tor another bridge between
the settled portions Of the city is much NOR
urgent than that for bridge above
street. Indeed It may we'll be doubted
whether there ought not to be two nav
bridges erected below the P-street bridg
before another Is built aboveit.
The elections OF last Tuesday appear I

apathy. Doubtless different causes were II

pers bearing the efforts made by the Confederate
government to secure the release of soldiers i'm
prisoned at the North through the cooperation OF

The policy Of the city government ought
to encourage the concentration rather than
the scattering of our population. There
is enough vacant ground within the
present limits Of this city to answer the needs
of the community for some years to come.
Police, sanitary, and educational consdera'
tions all make compact population desra
BILE. Our police force is already far below
its proper strength. 1t is impossible for il
to adequately protect the present territory
The beats to be patrolled are too long; the
patrolmen too few in number. The einterest'
of the community will be best subserved by
the improvement of the present city street
and the filling mp with residences of th'
vacant ground nearest the centre Of popula
tion.

The greatest sourc Of regret over the re-
suit of the elections Is that the Democracy
fail to gain enough seats to give them the
control Of the Senate. 1t is one Of the mis-
takes of our system that the responsibility
Of carrying on the Government may be 80
divided up that no party can be distinctly
held responsible for the manner in which
our affairs are conducted. When the Presi-
dent and both houses OF Congress belong to
the same party the people can have no
trouble in fixing the responsibility for bad
Legislation or for the failure OF necessary
measures. But with such division OF re
sponsibility as there has been during the
present administration 1t is not so easy ia
strike the balance Of praise and blame. We
know that taxes are too high, and that they
ought TO be reduced. But no one can be
sure that the fortunes of either party will be
affected by the failure TO revise our revenue
system, for which neither can be held alto
gsther responsible.

AT EnRI STREET CHURCH.

The Rev. S. T.. Bishop preached
the Thanksgiving sermon, taking
for his text, Psalm 11G:17, 81 will
offer unto thee the sacrifice of
thanksgiving" A summary of the
discourse follows:-
1t has become an established
custom of the American nation to
observe the last Thursday Of Nov
ember as Il day of Thanksgiving.
1t used to be confined to those of
New England descent. 1t was
originated by the Pilgrim Fathers
in gratitude for deliverance from
want at Plymouth. They were evil
IDENTITY a genial and cheerful people,
were content with the mama in
their wilderness. We are assembled
especially as Americans, by the Pre-
sident's invitation, TO thank God for
his manifold mercies during the past
year. We are all descendants of
those Pilgrim Fathers by inhe;it-
ance of the Institutions which they
founded. Some among us can even
race blood descent from those who
irst stepped upon Plymouth Rock.
Al. of us derive our ideas and prin-
ciples of duty, of social and domestic
relations, of education, of law and
liberty, from those ideas first planted
in the American wilderness by those
resolute souls from the Mayhower.
Those principles now dominate over
sixty millions of people from the
Atlantic 10 the Pacific. They are
the prevailing principles of society
in these islands, directing the lead
ing civilized race, 'lere, and en-
bodied in our constitution and laws.
1t was solely due to the recognition
of the llawaiians as having adopted
these principles that they secured
their independence. We do not
hold ourselves apart from the IIa-
waiians or any other race here. We
partake with them in common
pros. .,erily or adversely. One gov
ernL.ent, one constitution, one code
of laws administers TO us all alike.
Although we have met as Ameri-
cans, we offer our thanks and praise
to God as members Of the Hawaiian
nation. In recounting Gods mer-
cies, we would remember,
!. Our great material and finan-
ci'' prosperity during the past year.
We have been peculiarly exempt
from general disaster. Even the
great fire was sanitary benefit TO
the elty, and the value of property
is increased by il. While an old
and noted city remote from earth
fissures and volcanoes has been
wrecked by earthquake, no tremor
has visited Honolulu, although built

A SUGGESTION.

The Superintendent of Streets
might make Il good use of the Punch
bowl sandstone and add TO the COM
fort of many pedestrians. A cor
respondent says it is material unfit
for the road bed. But if put along
the sides of the roads and covered
with loan and sand it would make
admirable sidewalks. The edge
of the raised bed would furnish q
water course now so much needed
in so many of our streets. Take n
walk on Merchant street, or on Be-
retania street from Punchbowl to
Aapai streets and see if the plan
would not work well.

tudc of humber Hawaiians bore the
true fruits of the Spirit, amid many
weaknesses. or nothing am l more
assured than that il was this Christ
like transformation Of character
which 50 suddenly and strangely
lifted up the nation into its present
wealth of liberty, intelligence and
prosperity. l can hardly be called
old, but l well remember populace

haggard people, crouching abject
before ,Lcir stately O."~is. re-
member as late as 1886 n row of
gigantic idols still standing on Ka-
mehameha's heiau at Kailua, the
grim survivors of that stern pagan's
devoutness. Oh, those evil gods of
the heather, the carved embodiment
of all their brutalized imaginations
could devise of demon cruelty, and
potent malice How many aged
forms still totter among us, whose
youth was passed under the abject
fear of soroerer and of King, who
lived under the direful shadow of
the old tabus. and witnessed the
sacrifices of the bodies of men and
swine on the putrid altars of the
heiaus. Are there any who have set
themselves TO drag this people back
under that old twin bondage2 II so
| think that to none are the sad
words of the betrayed Lord more
likely to apply, 'It were better for
them that they had never been
born"
Finally, think we may rejoice
that this land seems to be in an
especial manner under Divine guild
ance and protection. Such countries
there have been like old Judea, for
which God specially cared, as seed
grounds for light and liberty. Such
have been England and the United
States. 1t would have been bold
man who in 1S43 predicted the con-
tinued independence of Hawaii.
Here we are undisturbed, unthreat-
ened, alone among Pacific groups.
1t needs no grace Of faith or gift of
prophecy to expect that God will
keep us safe. We are overshadowed
by the imperial American nation,
and England's strong colonies, which
stand for Christian and civilized in
tegrity. Any movement backwards
is fatuous and impotent. The worst
result, and deeply feel its shame,
may be to cast down the good name
of the Hawaiian people, and dis
honor their predecessors who so
nobly and generously joined hands
with their new friends. To debase
and paganize the Hawaiian will be
to abase and disfranchise him. do
not believe this evil will come to
pass. In any event we may thank
fully trust God, that the Hawaiian
State will go. forward, the honored
child of Christian civilization, a
bright beacon light in the Pacific.
And now, recount thankfully
Gods mercles In the past, trusting
Him cheerfully for the future, re-
solved to fulfil all manful duty, let
us feast joyfully before the Lord
this day.

How ABoy saws Wood.

No one ever hears boy complain
about the back breaking, soul-kill-
ing hardships of wood-sawing. All
such talk is confined to adults, and
it has no real foundation There is
only one way to saw wood and take
comfort at the same time, and every
body has that way. Yesterday af-
ternoon half a cord of four-foot
wood was flung down at the gate OF
house on Second street, and the
wagon had only departed when a
boy Is years old appeared with
bucksaw in his hand. All his act
ions indicated his purpose to go
through that wool pile like chain
lightning, but it took him exactly
seven minutes to discover that he
had left the saw-buck in the wood
shed, and five minutes more to bring
it out.
Some boys would have dropped
the saw-buck wherever IL happened
and pitched right in, but this COY
spent five minutes in selecting To-
cation of the first water. BY this
time he had the presence of three
other boys to cheer him on to victo-
ry. These three boys made the fol-
lowing suggestions in the order Civ
EN- below:
I'D hire q masheen.7
I'D run away and fight injuns. "
"I'd let the old man do it."
But the hero went right ahead
with his work. In twenty minutes
after his first move he had q stick of
wood on the aw.buck. He turned
it over four times before it settled
over to his satisfaction, and then he
picked up the saw. A buck-saw is
simple yet ingenious piece Of ma
chinery. Men who were saving
wood by the day have been known
to stand and gaze at the saw for an
hour at time without being able to
solve it mysterious points. This
boy picked up the saw and carefully
examined it. In the course of seven
minutes, with the aid of the other
three boys, he was enabled to dis
cover:
/. That the teeth were all there.
2. That the framework was of
beech.
That it was in perfect order, as
far as boy could judge.
When these discoveries had been
made, discussion arose as to
whether boy could saw faster by
saving left-handed. The vote on
this question was carried in the neg
alive, and now the moment arrived
for action.
The boy spit on his hands.
He removed his coat.
He bumped up his back.
He pulled his cap over his ears
He had his knee on the stick and
the saw in hand, when little three
cent dog down on The next corner
ran out at passing goat The goat
rushed into a yard and girl was
heard screaming. The saw fell to
the grouned, tho saw-buck was up
set, and the boy went tearing down
to the corner like cheap whirlwind,
and when darkness began to settle
down over the face Of the earth he
returned to carry the saw and buck
into the woodshed for the night.
