In October, 1885, w. M. Gibson,
President of Board of Health, came
to my house with the kind tidings
that he would put me, |. Fisher,
under DIR. NJ. Goto's treatment for
the leprosy, for which / thanked
him kindly and promised to adhere
strictly to the doctors directions. |
at that time weighed about 1870 lbs.
/ now at this writing Sept. j, 1886,
weigh 100 lbs, have made splendid
progress in these ten months and
upwards, under the doctors treat
ment. Through some slight mis-
understanding between us, through
a small surgical operation performed
on me preparatory to my discharge
from this Leper Hospital, it appears
that he took offense at some re-
marks l had made in regard to put
ting me in pretty good shape for
my departure, as he, the doctor,
deserved for what he had done for
me and others. AS l had often re-
marked to DR.. Goto, that as for my
life l did not consider it worth living
for, after having been discharged
from leprosy hospital. People
naturally would shun me through
fear that l merely went through this
ordeal for him, as he deserved great
credit. For what he had done for
me and others here, he certainly has
done wonders at this Branch Hos
| pital. Things are quite the reverse
from what n writer in Tuesdays s
Gazette represents things here. If
it would not be too much trouble for
the writer to call in here and judge
for himself. 1t appears that DR..
Goto had made the remark about
myself, that persons that spoke
about such things, as it being i'm
material whether they lived or not,
was all bosh. merely wish to
show the doctor that what 1have
said to him at any time was truth,
which 1 pride myself in.

eight or nine days ago, the last
time l spoke to him until to-day,
that if he did not finish the opera

that ] would not leave the hospital
and 90 before the world, and that
wished he would finish the opera.
ton. Upon the foregoing conversa'
ton the doctor did not come neal
me for eight or nine days. Hence
wish to bring my word true.
''In acknowledgment of my kline
treatment here, l must say that the
Sisters and w. Nj. Gibson have
been very kind to me here.

BIRTHDAY ANNIVERSARY.

The eleventh birthday annlver-
sary of Her Royal Highness, the
Princess Victoria Kawekiu Kaiu-
lani Lunalilo Kalaninuiahilapalapa,
daughter of II. r. III. Princess Like
like and Hon. A. S. Cleghorn, was
celebrated on Saturday, 10th inst,
in true Royal Hawaiian style, at the
family residence at Waikiki. The
elements of nature favored the occa-
sion, as the pouring rain that
drenched the city little after mid
day reached Waikiki only in gentle
sprinkling, just sufficient to lay the
dust and give rich refreshing cool
ness to the atmosphere.
1t was source of exquisite pleas
ure to many of the guests who have
passed through the grinding tedium
of the Legislative session to be let
loose at midday, and Immediately
after to fly off to the paradisaical
retreat of royalty at Waikiki and
enjoy the unbounded hospitalities of
Noble Cleghorn's residence. A
hearty welcome awaited all the
guests from Noble Cleghorn and
Princess Likelike. All were directed
to make themselves at home. The
youthful Princess, in one of the
apartments of The fine mansion,
guarded right and left by the ka-
hills, the emblems of her rank, re-
ceived the congratulations and good
wishes of throng of visitors, who
entered and retired in one continu-
Gus stream for nearly two hours.
His Majesty the King, attended by
his Chamberlain, arrived little
after 2 o'clock. There were also
present, Their Royal Highnesses
Liliuokalani and Poomaikelani, Gen
eral Dominis, Chancellor Judd and
Mrs. Judd, Members of the Cabinet,
Foreign Representatives, Justice
McCully and Mrs. nj. McCully, the
President and Members of the House
of Mobiles and Representatives
Bishop Willis and Mrs. Willis, Hon.
Paul Neumann and Mrs. Neumann
Mr.. and Mrs. Creighton, Mr.. and
Mrs. Dare, Officers of the Military
and Members of the Consular Corps
A magnificent spread was laid out
on three long tables, with another
table extending across the upper
end. AT the head of the feast sa
His Majesty the King, over whom
was disposed the Royal Arms, dis
posed on a background of ferns.
Some two hundred guests sa
down to the tables Hawaiian fashion
The tables were literally loaded will
national dishes, cooked in the ancien
Hawaiian style of the culinary ar
which really excels all modern limo
vations.
A large side table was loaded witt
foreign food for the benefit of th,
guests not initiated in the ways O
Hawaiian tables. The provision
for the dietary entertainment of th'
guests, Hawaiian and foreign, wer
on grand scale, both as to qualit,
and quantity.

A TEACHERS OPINION.

" tGtAVNEn u uEbNtpNs
EDIToR BULLETIN Living on one
of the other Islands, it was only this
week that l read the speech con-
cerning school teachers, which Min
lister Dare made before the Legisla-
ture. Had l lived in Honolulu, my
answer would have appeared sooner,
1t is quite evident that Mr.. Dare
knows very little about the system
of education on these Islands, and
that he is entirely unacquainted with
the work of our schools. Any one
who has ever taken enough interest
in the schools, to visit them, could
not have spoken as lightly of the
teachers labors as Mr.. Dare did.
| know | but give voice TO the
opinion of every teacher in Hawaii
nei, when say that ] would like to
have Mr.. Dare undertake teachers
duties for only one week. / will
take my class, as an example.
There are 80 children-lIawaiians,
Portuguese, South Sea Islanders
and Japanese. (Some teachers have
even more nationalities represented).
These children understand but a
very few words of English, and the
teacher, besides laboring under the
disadvantage Of teaching language
unknown to his pupils, must also
teach them obedience, love of truth,
honesty, order, discipline and appli-
cation to work. Nor is this all.
Cleanliness, of which the majority
have no idea, must be inculcated,
and the children must be sent out
and taught to wash their hands and
faces, or must be sent home to have
their hair cut off and their heads
cleaned. Not only do we teach
them to read, we must also teach
them to think, to frame the simplest
sentence, and the same words must
be repeated again and again, until
the familiarity of the sound, accom-
panied by gestures, and the COM
prehension of one or two words, will
make them grasp the idea.
Home influence, which in other
countries is such powerful motor
towards instilling ambition, the love
of school, and respect towards
teachers, into the children's minds.
, Not only is this wanting among our
/ pupils, but even the smallest ones
(chiefy among the Portuguese), are
made to think that the time is
wasted, which is devoted to learn
ing. and that manual labor, for
: which there is some pecuniary re.
turn, would be far better for the
children.
Teachers in the States can have
60 and 20, or even so children, il
t their care, and their work is mucl
: lighter than ours, even if their daily
f session is one hour longer for thei
classes are graded. Here, that il
utterly impossible, and each teache.
4 has two or three classes, and some
, times four.
Now that Mr.. Dare understand:
, the teachers work, think he vii
agree with the Board of Education
that 30 or 40 children are sutlicien
for one teacher, and that our hour:
c are long enough. His Excelency
Mr.. Gibson knows under what diff
culties we labor, and he stateC
them-first, in his report of th'
Board of Education, and then agail
! last week before the Assembly. w
Y all feel grateful to him for tn
q public appreciation of our work.

The Secretary of the Interior has reject.
ted the selection OF some 1900 acres of
land made by the st. Paul, Minneapolis and
Manitoba Railway Company within Da-
kota. The selections made between the
six and ,en.nilc limits were rejected be-
cause OF having previously been selected
as indemnity land by the Northern Pacific
Railway, and the Secretary holds that This
priority of selection gave the superiority of
the right. The selections within the six-
mile limits were rejected for the reason
that at the date Of the definite location OF
the route lands were in the Indian coun-
try, and that the Indians title was not cx-

conclusion he said the accounts the En-.

most alarming figures. The interest on
the debt in 1854 was les, than four millions
sterling, and the loss by exchange on
government drafts was only Sc,x,,ooo short
