population. What do they get?
The following apology; 1T is too
much to expect any marked change
during the session of the Lcgisla-
turc, the time of Ministers being
fully occupied by the details of
departmental and legislative busi-
ness. The needs of the country and
the requirements of the public
service are to be studied, not hast
lily, but intelligently and compre-
hensively, to the end that any step
taken may be in the right direction
and lasting in its effects" 1t is
admitted that there is reason in this
apology, but not TO the extent of
being a satisfactory substitute for a
policy. Men who accept the task
of responsible government under a
constitutional monarchy should be
conversant with "the needs of the
country and the requirements of the
public service" beforehand, from
having "intelligently and compre-
hensively' studied them, and thus
be prepared to lay before the As
sembly the policy they represent.
To us it is a strange thing for a
Ministry to sit in Parliament with
out policy, or, having policy, to
keep the house and the people in
ignorance of its nature and aims.
A Cabinet with policy is living
reality, but a Cabinet without 4
policy is about equal to Millis's sci
of manikins.

ISLAMISM.

Islam is one of the strangest facts
in the history Of man-under some
aspects stranger even than Chris
tianity itself. Christendom only
partially acknowledges the influence
of Christianity. The civilization of
Christendom is not Christian but
Roman in origin; its science and
literature are Greek, its social
systems mainly feudal and Teutonic.
But the religion and civilization of
Islam are one; the Koran is the.
standard of its literature, and the
Moslem desires no further eXplana-
ton of the mysteries of man and
nature than what is given in the
book dictated by Gods own angel
and in the traditions of it's early
commentators. No other faith has
ever succeeded in so perfectly inter-
weaving itself with the acts and
needs of common life as well as with
the requirements of the State, and
it subsists from age to age without
priesthood and without church.
The Moslem holds immediate COM
munion with Allah, and the Imam,
aided by no ritual, simply leads the
prayers of the assembled faithful,
and declares, theologian wise, not
the will or mercy of God, but the
meaning and application of His re-
vealed word. Islam is not an at
tractive faith; to the conquered it
contemptuously offers life and
liberty upon payment of tribute,
enforcing mutual tolerance among
the varieties of unbelievers which
they have always bitterly resented.
The very opposite of Buddhism, it
originally made its way by the
sword, and by the sword achieved
permanent results. Yet it has shown
none of the eXclusiyeness of Juda-
ism, and has welcomed, though
without warmth, every race that has
chosen to embrace the faith. It's
founder was the faith incarnate,
strongwilled and visionary, self
controlled and voluptuous, peopling
the universe with spiritual beiags,
yet enduring them with merely
earthly attributes and passions
Islam, lastly, was no development
of an older faith, but a Totally new
religion (if the continued worship Of
the Caaba be excepted), founded
upon stern monotheism from whicl
it has never deviated. From this
monotheism all the articles of thu
creed of Islam are deducible; it,
theology is simply the amplificatioI
of this creed, begun by Mohammet
himself, and carried to extraordinar,
length by his disciples and thu
doctors who succeeded them, man,
of whom had Greek blood in thei
veins, and were adopts in the late
Greek philosophy [The Spectator

YES, WE ARE GRATEFUL,

Yes, we, for our part, are "grate-
ful to the AdUertiSer for furnishing"
us with "topics" for amusement.
When the Legislature is not in ses-
sion, the -4tlcertiser is the next best
thing. Without the AduertiSer,
journalistic life in Honolulu would
be extremely dull. Too much high
class drama becomes monotonous.
a little farce thrown in at regular or
occasional intervals has good effect.
1t produces laugh, and prevents
stagnation of the liver. We like the
advertiser for this reason. We
would rather miss our breakfast
than it any day. 1t is the best
remedy we have ever tried for the
blues. No matter how sad our feel
ings, when the Aduertiser comes
around, we read and smile and feel
happy. a good farce always affects
us in this way, and outside of Aliio-
lani Hale the Advertiser is the best
farce going. Its most striking point
is the long, serious face which it
pulls when getting off something
ticklingly funny. The Genealogy
Board or Mission to Samoa, for in
stance. Not ripple appears on the
bland countenance of our "great
and good" friend while he talks of
these and kindred matters with all
the gravity and decorum of a judge
in q wig and gown, casting opinions
loose upon society without reason
sufficient to keep them on their legs,
and with look of self complacent
dignity that seems to indicate con-
tident expectation of beholding the
field strewn with the empty heads
and demolished arguments of puny
antagonists. 1t is intensely anus
ing to all who have ''turn' for
that sort of thing. The uninitiated,
and simple people who worship bosh
and fall PROSTATE in the temple OF
bunkum, sometimes take it in dead
earnest, and bolt by the bucketful
the alarming mess of deleterious
quack compounds literally dis
pensed. OF course, if they are dis
posed to regard farce as solemn
tragedy, that is their business. Every
man to his taste. We prefer to look
upon farce as farce, and when il
is well got up and ably sustained We
are going to applaud the author.
Serious people, who have no liking
for farce, may be angry at the per-
petual reproduction. That is all
right. They can please themselves,
and must allow us the privilege of
doing likewise; and we are pleased
to be ''grateful'' TO the Ad0ertise,
for daily furnishing us with "topics'
of fun in dull times. Hurrah fol
the Adcertiser! Long live the Ad
uertiser ! !

Wilke Collins says in the ToN
Mai Gazette that he picks up the
literature that happens to fall in his
way and lives upon it as well as he
can; and he adds that he has never
got any good out of book unless it
interested him in the first instance.
"If," he says, ''you asked me TO
pick out a biographical work for
general reading, l should choose,
(after Boswell's supremely great
book, of course) Lockhart's Life of
Scott Let the general reader fol-
low my advice, and he will find hlm-
self not only introduced to the
greatest genius that has ever writ
ten novels, but provided with the
example of man modest, just,
generous, resolute and merciful, a
luan whose very faults and failings
have been transformed into virtues
through the noble atonement that
he offered, at the peril and sacrifice
of his life." AS to works of fiction
Mr.. Collins begs the reader to "last,
not least, do justice to a greater
writer, shamefully neglected at the
present time in England and Amer
lea alike, who invented the sea-
story, and created the immortal

HONOLULU RIFLES.

UUNOLOIu nITLCCs
AT n full meeting of the Honolulu
Rifles last evening, Mr.. Volney V.
Ashford was unanimously chosen to
fill the vacant captaincy. This un-
usual compliment to one outside the
force, seems justified, however, by
the military record of the recipient
of the honor.
From the age of twelve years Mr..
Ashford was connected with a
mounted "Yeomanry" Corps, under
instruction of British army officers
sent from Aldershot for the purpose.
In the spring of 1868, he enlisted,
as private, in the 21st New York
Cavalry-the youngest boy in the
Regiment, outside of the bugle
corps-being obliged to misstate his
real age in order to pass muster.
During the terrible campaigns of
1851, and the spring of 'G5, in
Virginia and Maryland, under
Siegel, Hunter, and Sheridan, he
fought his way to Lieutenancy
before he was eighteen years of age;
and after the fall of the Confeder
acy his regiment served one cam
paign in the Indian war upon the
'sPlains.' Returning home, he
entered the British Infantry School
at Toronto and as cadet thereof was
attached to the 47th British Regulars
(Foot) during the Fenian invasion
of Canada, and the troubles follow
ing. He was afterwards attached
to the 2nd Battalion, 18th Regi-
ment of the Line, the signature
of whose Colonel is appended, as
Commandant of the Infantry School,
to his first-class certificate. After
subsequent service with the 46th
Regiment G. V. nj. on the frontier,
he entered the Toronto Cavalry
| School as an attache of the 18th
Hussars. His commission therefrom
shows first-class examinations in
every department of the service,
and bears personal endorsements of
the highest description, by the late
General Soame Gambia Jenyns, then
Colonel of the Regiment. This
officer, while senior Captain, led the
18th Cat that time known as Dragon
Guards) in the "Charge of the Six
Hundred. at Balaclava. He was a
special favorite of the Prince of
Wales, whose influence obtained him
permission to introduce the ''non-
pivot" tactic into the 18th, which,
at the time spoken of, was the only
Regiment in the British service (ex-
cept tie 10th Hussars, commanded
by the celebrated Col. Baker, after
wards Turkish Pasha) permitted
to use that system.
Mr.. Ashford, who is a Brevet-
Major on the Canadian Army List,
has occupied various positions in the
military establishment of the Domin'
ion: the latest being Captain ano
Adjutant of the 3rd Regiment Prince
of Wales Dragon Guards-whicl
he resigned previous to coming out
to this country. But military ex'
perience in a commanding Officer
cannot alone create results without
earnest cooperation. The Rifles
constitute the only foreign military
organization in the Kingdom. The
membership includes the best of oul
young men from professional ant
business circles; and If there is t.

THE REAL ceNTlEwoMAN'S DRESS.

The dress of the real gentlewoman,
the truly refined and sensible of her
sex, is never in the height of
fashion. The first study of such
woman is to seek the becoming her
second thought the good, and her
last what is merely fashionable. She
cleverly adapts the fashion to her
self. She will not stoop to make
herself mere figure for the modiste
to hang her wares on. She has Il
law in her own mind, higher than
the law of fashion. She wears many
nice things, but probably the most
becoming of them have been fashion,
ed by her own taste, frequently
finished, perhaps by her own dcft
fingers, or at least she has carefully
superintcnded their manufacture.
Many an envious neighbor may have
glanced at her tasteful toilets,
cynically observing: Her poor
husband working so hard and she
spending his earnings in French
fripperies. All this while her cos
tune is rarely rich, never very
costly, often not even new, for the
genuine gentlewoman remembers the
"bread winner and home-maker,
the husband who tolls. But what
ever she wears is prettily made, and
never decked with gaudy tinsel,
trumpery lace and sham jewels. All
is fresh and simple, good of their
kind, collars, cuffs, frllls and gloves
alike faultless. After all, there is
no great art in her fashions or in her
materials. Her secret consists IN
her knowing the three great unities
of dress-her own station, her own
age and her own good points. Above
all, she takes care that her plainest
and cheapest dress shall be well cut.
She need not be beautiful nor even
accomplished, but we will answer
for her being even tempered, sensi-
BILE, and modest Exchange.

The Care of The Vanderbilt
Millions.

The New York correspondent of the
Philadelphia Times writes: The care of
the Vanderbilt Millions is far greater
burden than most people imagine. There
are not many citizens in our country
who require great bank and safe deposit
company Of their own in which to trans
act their own business and deposit their
securities. Probably the largest bank
ing business in the city of New York, de-
voted exclusively to money changing is
the Lincoln National Bank, up at the
Fifth avenue and Forty second street.
This belongs to the Vanderbilts, aud is
near the depot of their railroad, so as to
be close at hand. This institution holds
millions Of money and many more mil
lions Of securities which represent their
wealth. After the old man died his pro-
perty was divided among his children 1t
was no small task to 60 over the safe
deposit vaults and vast number of stocks
and bonds. and divide them up according
to the provisions of the will. Nor was
a snail matter to distribute the ready
money that was in the bank. The Oper-
alton Of cutting coupons and distribu-
ting the millions is still going on and
it requires so much form that an addition
has been made to the bank to accOmmo-
date the dozen or more people handling
the wealth than when it was controlled
by one man. This bank and its opera
tiOns seem almost romance Of our "a
pid civilization. Certainly nothing in
Europe can compare with it in the SEN
timental features which close about It.
In no country on earth except this could
such an institution exist under similar
conditions. Probably in no other land
could family have as a financial ser.
want man who has been a cabinet mi
mister, yet that is what the Lincoln bank
has. When Thomas L. James ceased to
be pOsmaster-general he anchored him
self in this institution to count the mon
ey and sit as grim figure head upon
the stool Of the successful speculatiOns
of one man.

Euchred by a Cow.

One Of our hardest experiences in the
army, writes correspondent, was the
constant longing after home rations.
We wanted milk, butter, vegetables,
light br cad eggs etc. At one time our
cOmmissary issued to us five days "a
tons in hard tack along with the infor-
nation that we must make the supply
las. us into Nashville.
Pretty soon after while on the march,
thought l would do little foraging.
sound a Tennessee COW, nice looking
brute and decided to try for some milk
l approached and-well she wouldn't
quite 20 coaxed aud approached again
to draw milk-no-not yet. So thinking
to bride her, l gave her a hard tack
tanner yet but again she eluded me; but
l had her so near cOaxed that / knew
should succeed, and l gave her another
hard tack. sO-sO-bossie and so-so-bos-
sled in my gentlest and most seductive
notes and thought each moment that the
next I'd get her. And thus that brute of
a Tennessee COW fooled with me until
she had my very last mOrsel Of hard tack
and l had not the first drop Of her milk.
She had been flirting with me and was
euchred.-ChicagO Ledger.
