inquiring look.
The heightened color as she opened
the first was explained when Mabel
took the cards and read the marriage
notice Of Nil Lewis Lalldon and Miss
Larener of New York; but the bated
breath as she opened the second was
not explained for some moments; then
she merely said:

:" "We" exclaimed Mabel. "Well, of

MABEL had an engagement for the
evening. When she returned late, and
found a most absorbed couple in the

Then Mabel sank upon chair, and
burying her face in her hands sobbed
aloud.

forgive me? It is all my fault. I
thought it would be such a funny little

that the opportunity had come, she, with

Chinese Railroad Concessions.

New YORK, Jan. I6.-A London
dispatch to the Times from Berlin says:
am authorized to deny the report
that the delegates sent to China by
German and other banks have gone to
negotiate loan. Their business is to
study the country and get railway con
cession. They are prepared, however,
to form a syndicate with English or
American, or even French, competitors
The Franco. Chinese treaty does not
give France any monopoly in railway
construction, as is stated, and learn
that the late Chinese Minister to Ber-
lin, Ii Fong Poo, who has been under
disgrace, is to be pardoned, and will
probably receive an important position
He will certainly support the German
efforts to get railway concession.

THAT TAX CERTIFICATE.

Last Saturday morning George H.
Luce, Tax Collector, was brought be-
fore the Supreme Court on writ Of
mandamus to show cause why tax
certificate should not be issued as
prayed for in the writ by H. K. Hipa,
one of the membres of the Queens
Own corps, as reported in Yesterdays
Press. After hearing the case the
Supreme Court reserved opinion until
one o'clock yesterday, when the follow
ing opinion was delivered by Chief
Justice Judd, Justices McCully and
Preston concurring;
In order to entitle a petitioner to a
writ of mandamus, il must appear that
the respondent is clothed with legal
duty Thel.object of the writ now
sued for is to obtain tax receipt i'm
pressed with the words, "Qualilied to
vote" the production Of which at the
polls al the coming general election for
representatives of the people, is one of
the essentials to enable the petitioner
to cast his vote. Section 10 of the act
of 1868, clothes this respondent, as
Tax Collector for the District of Homo
lulu, with the duty of filling out and
delivering to every person entitled to
vote tax receipt SO impressed.
The qualifications Of the petitioner
to vote are not questioned by the
answer. But the respondent AYERS that
he has made out and delivered petit
toners tax receipt to the commanding
officer of the volunteer corps, "The
Queens Own," of which petitioner is an
enrolled member Is this discharge
OF his duty in this respect9 / think
not. From the tenor of the answer, it
would appear that for convenience or
to insure identification of the indivi-
duals in the volunteer corps, the re-
spondent made the captain of the corps
his agent to deliver the receipt to the
petitioner. This the agent has not
done, though the receipt was filled out
ready tor delivery on or soon after the
1st of November last. The principal is
responsible tor the acts of his agent
and is answerable for his neglect to de-
liver the receipt He cannot in this
way evade the express duty which the
law explicitly casts upon him and upon
him alone. The agent is presumably
under the control of his principal, and
cannot anticipate that respondent will
have any difficulty in revoking the
agency and recovering the receipt.
deem the cause shown to be in
sufficient, and that peremptory man
date should issue to the respondent
that he deliver the tax receipt in ques-
tion to petitioner on or before IL
o'clock, noon, on Tuesday the 10th in
stant, and pay the cost Of these pro-
ceedings.

Meanwhile with one accord the
judges in the south and west of Ireland
are signing writs by the hundreds
There is apparently more destitution
than since the awful winter of $40, the
tenants having spent the most of their
little store of ready money in going
into the delusive land courts, and the
laborers having had no work whatever.
Already famine and scenes of violence
are beginning to be reported Mobs
of starving men are breaking up the
meetings Of the poor law guardians with
demands for food, and dead bodies are
being found in the roadside wasted to
the bone. 1t is at such times as this that
a single judge in Kilkenny issues over
200 writs of eviction in one day, invol-
wing the tearing off of the roofs from
over the heads of at least thousand
human beings, and this is sample of
what is going on in fifteen counties.
New YORK, Jan. 1.-THE Times

fessedly emanating from Tory sources,

the most sinister intentions in regard
to coercion in Ireland. Referring to
the volunteer force that has been raised
in Ulster to enforce evictions, the cor
respondent continues: The graves.
peril of the situation is the fact that
the agitation now fomenting in Ulster
will be an invitation to just such ruff
fans to go over and precipitate the dis
turbance which the landlords so much
desire. There will be aloud shout for
Lord Wolseley and an army corps.

will follow
New YORK, Jan. 16.-The Posts
London special says have talked
in the last two days with prominent
politicians of the three camps, and /
believe the Government will introduce
a bill to stop boycotting; that is, it will
renew some of the clauses of the
crimes act. This will prove to be the
coercion which everybody is discussing
Lord Randolph Churchill, | happen to
know, is thoroughly disgusted with his
colleagues, and the bill they propose
to introduce with unscrupulous eager
ness to get votes. He now demands a
vigorous policy Of repression. He has
been heard to say, half in earnest, half
in jest, that if the Irish persist in their
present attitude, and his colleagues do
nothing to stop them, he will go to
Ulster himself and raise an army of
Orangemen. The strange rumors of
martial law, the proclaiming of the Land
League, etc, doubtless rest on some
pretty serious foundation. l heard,
too, the Government has land bill for
Ireland, prepared under the guidance
of Griffin, the statistician for the Board
of Trade.
