For solace from some kindred heart!
Tho the answer should come in plying sigh
From heart which itself bows In woe,

Oh what Is the value of kinship's strong tic,
The closest existing, the strongest we know

And miS'ortunes sad wall cannot bring back
It's glow
Far dcaIer to me In this hour Of my danger,
When black clouds arise, when airs dark,

Than the cold, icy, pity of those that love-
The plant of sorrow'd heart, seeking an.

And finding no echo to transport or cheer,
Must return hopeless-laden, when sister or

Bids q back without pang, without Ugh,

The term of the United States court at
Statesvlle has just closed, and was occu-
pied principally in trying petty liquor cases
where the parties have sold from drink to
a pint of whisky. The officers of the court,
as at present constituted under the 're-
formers" differ from the old officers In
that they consume great deal more whisky
than did their predecessors. The object In
hunting up SO many petty offenders Is
solely to make fees for the officers of the
court, which in each case amounts TO $S5.

AN ARBITRARY RULE,

His Excellency, Hon. Paul p.
Kanoa, Minister of Finance, an
nounces officially in this mornings s
Advertiser, that call letters ad-
dressed to him in his official capacity
as Minister of Finance, in English,
will receive no attention except fol-
lowed by an Hawaiian translation"
We can understand that the Minis
ter will experience difficulty in deal
ing with communications addressed
to him in a language with which he
is unacquaintcd. The Minister of
Foreign Affairs and the Attorney
General will have the same trouble
with letters written in Hawaiian. and
they might say that they will pay no
attention to such letters unless ac-
companied by an Hawaiian transla-
tion. But the Minister who knows
nothing of the English language
and the Ministers who are ignorant
of the Hawaiian do not require to
60 many steps from their Office doors
to procure correct translations into
languages that they do understand
of letters reaching them untrans-
lated. In country where there are
two official languages we fail to see
on what grounds Minister can
claim the authority to establish q
rule that letters of whatever nature,
communicated to him in his official
capacity, must be in a particular
one Of those languages. In fact,
we are of opinion that the Minister
of Finance has no right whatever
for making this the standing
rule" of the Finance Department
during his encumbency of office,
and can easily conceive of cases
arising in which, by adherence to it,
he may get himself into trouble.
