END OF THE FIRST ACT.

The lights burned lower; faint perfume
Stole its way through the crowded room.
The boxes were filled
With fair women, who rustled in silks and
laces;
Who looked and listened with eager faces
AS the singers trilled
Their melodious numbers and played their
parts,
And made sad havoc in some soft hearts,
For they sang Of love.
oh, what a theme
To make the young and beautiful dream;
So they sang of love,
And this was the scene:
The Burgomaster, with brow serene,
SIumbered and dreamed in his high-backed
chair
While his daughters stood in the moon
light fair
That streamed through the easement and
touched their hair,
And round their waists were the circling
arms
OF their soldier lovers; and all the charms
OF the moonlight, the music that rose and
fell
One cord DER the other with dreamy swell
In the heart of the listeners wrought
spell
For the moment divine.
Was it mine and thine
This passion they counterfeit there as
weil2
Thus we once swOre with many a VOW
Many kiss aforementioned now.
Since then Loves story must sure have
grown old,
So often you've heard it by others told.
Our love grew cold
As our minds grew further and further
apart,
Until at the last
Our passion had passed
And left us each with an empty heart.
Empty, and yet
! felt the agony of regret
As for moment that sweet love song
Swept with its thrilling measure along
And rememb ered a moonlight scene
With you and l in the window nook,
And was saying, "My life, my queen!"
While your father dozed DER a dreary
book
Was it a wonder that real it seemed?
Was it a wonder l dreamed
Till the curtain fell,
Breaking the spell?

SPREAD OF THE CHINESE.

An interesting article has lately APP
peared in one of the leading American
reviews from the pen of Professor Z. w.
Gillian, who takes a comprehensive and
philosophical view of the spread of the
Chinese from the centers of Asiatic pop
ulation. A brief summary of the lead
ing facts of Chinese immigration since
the civilized world has opened up COM
mercial intercourse with China may not
be without interest to the people of Ha-
wall, who fall within the limits of the ex-
tending circle of Chinese immigration.
Professor Gillian shows that since the
Empire of China has put aside her
national .exclusiveness the inhabitants
of that extensive and densely populated
country have shown a migratory dispo-
sition, which has been constantly slim
ulated by the prices paid for Chinese
labor in civilized lands 1t is estimated
that there are now 100000 Chinese in
the Malay Archipelago and 1,50O,OOO in
the Kingdom of Siam. The immigration
to Singapore during the years 1923

Thence l was sent away across town into
the tenement house district of the great
east side, where l found him in a top-story
room overlooking Tompkins square. He
said that he was engaged on portion of a
novel located among the tOiling poor, and
so he had temporarily hired that apart
ment, in order to breathe the atmosphere
of his subject. Moreover, he wore cheap
suit of clothes, and the furniture was such
as might have appropriately been in an
impoverished family's home. When he set
out TO compose poetry, he inclOsed him

dence, put on dressing gown, simple or

Yet They Uphold the System.

Every body in England knows how a lord
is made, that BARRIERS may become lord
chancellOrs and brewers get barOnies; that
political service or trickery, or wealth OBJ
tanned often by questionable means, can
secure that nobility which is denied to
science and letters and art. Yet Froude
and Lecky and May uphold the, system
and journalists with More power than any
duke IN tire peerage, grOvel in their col
umns at the mention of lord. Nine
tenths of the literary men in England feel
themselves honored when asked to the
tables of persons with less education or
character or ability than their own.
The people who use the pen, indeed, do
more for the continuance of the aristo-
cratic system and the development of it's
in the community. They spread the doc
trine and intensity the sentiment which
support an institution more hostile to the
greatest good of the greatest number
than any other that exists in civilized so
ciety If the men of letters fought the
lords, the lords would go down. But the
men of letters serve and follow the lords;
and the aristocracy flaunt their insolence
in the face of the world, and take their
superiOrs in their train to proclaim their
magnificence, to illuminate their feasts,
and to celebrate the splendAr they may
net share. They deserve the place they
accept. They recall description l long
ago read of Russian serf carefully hold

THURSDAY
July 29th.
OUR FOREIGN TRADE.

In the ADVERTISER Of the 9th instant,
we reprinted an article from the San
Francisco Merchant" on the exports of
American products from the Pacific
Coast to this Kingdom. 1t appeared
from this resume of trade that the value
of shipments to Hawaiian ports from the
Pacific Coast was 1888, 900 for the month
of June last. OF this total San Francisco
was credited with 1865 900, it being the
great distributing point for the Coast
trade. The Merchant takes June as
an average month but we are inclined
to think that it was an exceptionally
good one, and that it exceeded the aver
age. If the Coast exports to this King
dom aggregate $4,000, 900 for this year it
will be fairly prosperous one, although
we understand that several leading mer-
Gsss s. f0uses Of Honolulu which bought
largely in the European markets in past
years, have been buying considerably on
the Coast of late. This favorable change
will doubtless influence the volume of
business from San Francisco, but mas
much as the consuming market is not a
growing one at present, it follows that
the total OF merchandise imports from
abroad will not be increased by this
change in the source of supply. And
theoretically also it may be said that the
revenue will be the loser, by the remis-
sion Of 10 per cent on goods under the
Treaty, which would pay duty if inn
ported from England or Germany.
Up to date the export of domestic pro
ducts from Honolulu for 1886 has been
has been very large on all plantations,
and the shipping resources of the cOun-
try have been taxed to the utmost to
find transportation between the island
ports and Honolulu, and between Homo
lulu and the Coast. The export of the
present month, we venture to think,
will exceed that of any other month of
this year, by reason OF the number of
steam and sailing vessels that have
been, and will be despatched before its
close. The Oceanic Steamship Company
has carried the great bulk of Hawaiian
products so far this season, and it is con-
eeded that in the important matter of
steamer facilities it has met every posi-
BILE, not 10 say every reasonable expecta-
ton on the part of shippers. Indeed, it
is not too much to affirm that this COM
pany has greatly developed and fostered
production by its enterprising arrange
ments for the rapid, certain and cheap
transportation of goods and passengers
to and from the Coast. Nay more, the
Oceanic Company has developed trade,
and enabled business to be conducted ON
a more satisfactory, if not on sounder
basis than was the case before its organ
ization. Business can now be man lged
with less capital than before, because it |
is unnecessary to carry heavy stocks
owing to the rapid and certain commu-
nication with San Francisco. In a great !
variety of ways this might be Illustrated. |
Business men understand it too well, /
however, to need illustration to convince !
them of the truth of our statement,
while the consumers as a whole derive /
the benefit i'll cheaper prices and supe- |
rior goods.

The FRENCH NInrriage nIarket.

Among the upper classes in France
there is a notable stagnation just now in
the marriage market, the supply of mar
riageable girls being altogether in excess
of the demand. What are the causes of
this? The Figaro of course makes the
republic responsible. Young men of good
family have no longer anything to do-for
they will not serve so 'low" form of gov
eminent. Besides, most civil service ap-
pointments are now entirely closed to the
Conservatives In France, unfortunately,
the aristOcracy has not taken to trade, as
in England; while the bar and other
learned professions are Overstocked.
French mothers, meanwhile, are too wise
to give their daughters TO idle men, and
many of them, therefore, never ego off" at
all. Not, however, that the young ladies
themselves are entirely free from blam
The French girl of the period is too fond
of luxury and comfort, and does not care
to leave the parental nest of roses for the
struggles and trials of married life
When we were young, young folks were
less calculating; and knew better how to
love. We were sometimes deficient in fore
sight, but youth and love balanced our
budgets.-Cor. Figaro.

Previous to 1871 the population OF Singa-
pore consisted Of 10000 Malays, 100
white families and few thousands OF
Chinese in 1884 the Chinese popula-
ton had increased to nearly St., 700.
while the Malays and Caucasians have
not materially increased In Australia
there are $4,000 Chinese, and in the
Island OF Cuba, where large sugar plan
tations exist, there are l3O, 600 In the
United States there are at present about
10000, mostly located throughout the
Pacific Slope and the adjacent Terri
tories.
Professor Gillian also takes the ground
that immigrations Of Mongolians are
neither due to political oppression, as
has been asserted, nor wholly to the out
ward pressure of over-population. The
latter assumption is sustained, at least
partially, by the fact that there are still
large agricultural districts in China very
thinly settled. 1t is quite evident from
the facts and figures set forth in the
article that this migratory movement Of
Chinese males during the last fifteen
years is due to an endeavor to better
their condition by emigrating from a
country where wages are extremely low
to those countries which offer rewards
Tor labor greatly exceeding the prevail
ing prices paid in the Chinese Empire.
