BETWEEN the lines Of democratic
eulogy pronounced over the statesman
of Graneroy park, one reads quite
plainly that the old party has never
quite forgiven its ldolized mentor his re-
fusal to seize the government by force OF
arms ten years since. Tilden was too
wise to sign his own death warrant by
any ouch act; but his party was too
blind to understand that and so visited
their Ignorance upon his head.

THE comparison made :between the
'old soldiers" of the "Ross cavalry" in
this campaign and their service in the
late unpleasantness is not happy one.
The Waco Examiner which makes the
comparison is reminded Of Sherman's
march to the sea, and Appomatox. Com
ing events cast their shadows before.

The CRY for the annexation ofMexico,
heard in certain Texan quarters just
now, is too childish to be seriously COM
mented upon. This state may very
profitably spend another quarter Of
century perfecting her own internal
legislation, developing her own re-
sources and completing the civilization
of her borders, before undertaking the
civilization Of the $500, 900 semi-civilized
who are found among the 100000 over
the border Uncle Sam has as much use
for Mexico just now as an organ grinder
has for cast iron monkey.

HoFsTETTER's excuses In the Mondra-
gow-Resures case will not avail. He
was responsible for his own actions, and
upon the proper performance Of his du-
ties rested the safety Of the American
citizen whom he surrendered to murder
GUS Mexican hands. The cases OF Ogles-
by, sheriff; Hofstetter, county judge and
extradition agent; Diaz, deputy sheriff,
are in the proper hands. They are all
under bonds to appear before the grand
jury of Maverick county at its next ses-
sion. Their responsibility is unques-
toned.

The marquis Of Londonderry stands
about as much chance of cordial re-
ception in Ireland as the children OF
Judas Iscariot would in a Christian con-
gregation about the middle of the first
century. As the descendant OF the in
famous Castlereigh, he is probably the
most obnoxious lord lieutenant that
British minister could have selected for
Ireland. Sir Michael Hicks Beach is lit
tie better, and between them both they
will keep Salisbury in such an Irish
stew that he. will rue the day he ever
sent them over to the Green Isle as chief
cooks and bottle washers for his Tory
administration.

BARLOW is either a blooming idiot or
else he imagines that the newspapers
which do not boom Ross are run by
idiots. The bristles Of his utterances
rather point to the latter conclusion.
That any serious minded observer of
events in Texas imagines that there will
be no contest over the gubernatorial
nomination next week Is utterly incred-
ible, and yet Barlow talks rs though he
really believed it. 1t is the biggest case
of brag, or selfdeoeptiOn. yet witnessed
in connection with any state campaign
in this union. In all probability 1t is a
mixed case; a good deal of both, with
one so much like both you can't tell
t'other from which.

In THIS whole question Of Mexican
outrages upon the persons of Americans
any discussion of the person upon whom
the outrage was perpetrated is foreign
to the subject. Every citizen is equally
entitled to the protection Of his govern
ment. The only question is forfeiture
of that right by acts accepted as work
ing such forfeiture. The Interpretation
of these acts is just the question at issue.
What that matter is determined, the re-
lease or otherwise will follow as mat
ter of course. A good deal has been
said by way of buncombe about this
matter; the manifest wisdom is to wait
and see II Uncle Sam has the grit
to back his demand for release.

The verdict Of those who returned
from Galveston yesterday evening was
"Blessed be those who have escaped
from the land Of sand and sadness; more
blessed still were those who never jour
neyed thlther." The city has laid itself
out to make all 1t can out of the inter-
state, and is on the grab. The drill
grounds are on the hither side Of no.
where, and the attempt to reach them
annihilates comfort and sheckels. There
are 5000 more people in the city than
can find decent accommodation, and the
one word that is in no ones mouth is
comfort"

The general opinion at Washington,

The general opinion at Washington,
on the Cutting case, appears to be that
the matter has not yet been thoroughly
understood by the country. The Opin-
ion in Texas is that the feeling here is
generally misunderstood.
The one consistent, persistent policy of
this democratic house Of representatives
has been to thwsrt every effort of the
republican members to introduce and
consummate needed measures Of legis-
latiOn.

PARIS, not the naughty city Of La
Belle France, but the peppery city of
that name in the Lone Star State, is
mixed on the bond question. The
schools Of the city are unprovided with
accommodations suitable for the pupils,
and the board of education has vainly
asked the council for the necessary
funds. The council so far agree to dis
agree on the subject, and every measure
proposed is voted down. Paris Is not
living up to the claims made for her by
the News, as the foremost city of Texas
in public-spiritedness, in thus choking
off school supplies.

WHILE Texas is trying to keep cool
with the thermometer bordering on the
100, and Montana complains Of l2O in
the shade, Rome, N. Y, in the very heart
OF the Mohawk valley, enjoys the novel
sensation Of snowstorm in August.
The weather clerk has never been so
partial and unequal in the distribution
of his favors as this season. Central
Illinois complains Of only receiving
79.lOOths Of an inch of rainfall during
July, the average fall for that month
being in excess of four inches, but the
gulf cotton states have been literally
drowned out by unprecedented rains.
Texas languishes for lack Of water, but
the upper cisterns as yet give US no
moisture. Between interstate drill,
democratic conventions and this torrid
weather Texas is having a taste of Phil
Sheridan's alternative.

AT The Tent.

|
At the tent, last night, Elder Hea-
| lay spent three quarters of an hour, an
swering number Of questions concern
| ing his position, that man in death
knows not anything, and that our only
hope of future existence, depends on a
resurrection from the dead; that the
wicked never will have eternal life, but
will meet their doom in the second
death. Then he asked some questions
of those who hold, that the real man,
soul, or spirit, has conscious existence
between death, and the resurrection,
and is then receiving rewards or punish
ments, and that the wicked will be
eternally tormented. OF these we give
the following:
Why did God drive Adam away
from the tree of life, that he might not
"eat and live forever" Genesis 3:22,
if the real intelligent man was going to
live forever anyway Why are we told
to seek for Immortality, Romans 2:7, if
we have it now7 Why is it said that
God only hath Immortality, First limo
thy 6.I5-I6, if we have it7 If men go
to heaven or hell at death how is it
that Peter said, "For David is not as
cended into the heavens" Acts a:34,
but that he was "dead and buried"
verse 2o1 What did Solomon mean
when he said, "The dead know not
anything" that "their love, and their
hatred, and their envy is now per-
ished," Eccleiastes $50? Why does
the Psalmist say, of man, ellis breath
goeth forth, he returneth to his
earth; in that very day his
thoughts perish" Psalms 146: 4
Why is the resurrection always given
as the time when the good are TO get
their reward, Luke IA: IA, If they re-
ceive it at death ? In fact, why have
resurrection of the body at all if the
soul, or spirit, gets its rewards seper-
ate from it7 If men go to rewards
and punishments at death, why in the
end of the world, are they brought
forth for judgment2 Why does Ezekie
I8: 4 say, "the soul that sinneth, il
shall die" if it never dies

holiday goods in Honolulu is made by Messls.
King Bros, No. 81 Hotel street. Their as
sortment of Birthday, Christmas and New
Years cards, of Prang's and other makes, is
exquisite in design and finish, and are offered
at extyemely Ao7O rates. An inspection of their
picture gallery will well repay the visitor,
while artists can here find choice selection
of artists materials. In the windows Of King
Bros. are also fine collection of Clarke's
fern cards, Island curious, ETC., and some beau
tiful shells, painted in native scenes by Mrs.
Thomas J. King, which are valuable memen-

They say: That the Walker case
will turn out about like the Waller
case; that the horseback parties that
go out Of dark nights sometimes get
hoka; that the political pot does not
even cease boiling over on Sundays;
that the main chance of the Opposition
candidates is based as much upon the
wrong in the Administration party as
upon the justice of the Opposition
cause; that the political paragraphs
of the AdoertiSey are written by the
"old mani" that the style of the old
Nh H0n has, at least, been quite MOTTO
able for the last few days in the Users
columns; that the boys who wake the
Silly, starry bushes of the night are
not political tramps;" that the tent
religious services were largely attended
last Sunday night; that the Palace
Sunday school was the racket" that
disguised the King with politics; that
the Deputy Sheriff of Hama has been
sending some very liberal political
offers to certain parties on the Island
of Maui; that the day of Hawaiian
grace will not be a political day; that
the fern industry is looking up and the
lei makers are happy in consequence;
that some of Honolulu's middle-aged
citizens waited all day Sunday on the
wharf for the Mararoa; that the said
citizens were quite thirsty before night;
that the Government politicians were
all wreathed in sweet smiles yesterday
morning; that the dear boys around
town don't tell theirmammas all they do;
that Minister Kapena is greatly dis
couraged about his political chances;
that the Government leaders do not
like the stand taken by the Opposition
papers; that the Tax collector has got
ten himself into Mr.. Hayseldens little
political box; and that there is boom
erang in preparation for the Govern
ment party.

lulu. Evidently he had made up his mind on
the spur Of the moment, or else was DESTROYS
that no one should be aware beforehand Of his
going, as his name does not appear in the list
Of those who had engaged cabin passage, and
the Supreme Justices, and even his chief dep
uty, Frank Myers, had no intimation of his in
tention In fact Myers believed he was still
in Modesto, to which place he went to spend
the holidays. Shortly before the steamer left,
a lady, who was mol apparelcd as if for sea
voyage, was observed to purchase ticket for
Honolulu at the steamer companys office, and
then was driven rapidly to the wharf, where
subsequently she was seen engaged in earnest
conversation with Mr.. Mccarthy. Just as the
lines were being thrown of, the latter left her,
babe kindly farewell to his friend Thomas
p Ryan, who, besides the female, was the
only person who seemed to have been aware
Of his propoed departure, and quickly hurried
up the ngplank.

further stated that Mr.. McCarthy's
defalcations amount to about $4,000,
which his brother has offered to pay.

state that Mr.. Mccarthy is at present
enjoying good health in Honlulu.

After MI. j. w. MCCARTHY.

A detective named Mr. Bee arrived
by the steamer Mararoa yesterday with
a requisition from the Governor of
California directed to the King of Ha-
wall asking that Mr.. ]. w. Mccarthy,
Clerk of the Supreme Court of Califor-
MIA, be surrendered under charge of
embezzling the States money. Mr..
Mccarthy was arrested but was again
released until cause for his detention
could be shown under the Hawaiian
laws. The treaty between Hawaii and
the United States, it is stated, does
not provide for cases of embezzlement,
In this case, however, the California
authorities, it is reported, rely upon
section 44o Of the compiled laws of
this Kingdom, as follows;
The respective judges and magistrates of the
kingdom shall have authority, upon complaint
made under oath, to issue warrant for the
apprehension OF any person charged with tie
commission of crime, in any foreign country,
that he may be brought before such judges or
other magistrates respectively, to the end that
the evidence of such criminality may be heard
and considered; and if on such hearing the evil
dence be deemed sufficient to sustain the
charges, it shall be the duty of the examining
judge or magistrate to certify the same to the
Minister of Foreign Affairs, that he may issue
warrant for the surrender of such fugitive.
The Sacramento Recora- Union of
January 9th, contains the following ac-
count of Mr. McCarthy's departure;
]. W. Mccarthy, Clerk of the Supreme
Court, was in the city day or two last week,
arriving from Modesto, and December 3Ist

he did not draw for his own salary, not having
made his report of fees received in December

The Latest American Invention.
THE VICTORY OF ELEcrR1c1TY

Since Electricity has been applied for light
ing purposes, all efforts of inventors have
been directed TO construct lamp for general
domestic use. The reason why this problem
has till now not been solved, is that none Of
the inventors could rid themselves of the idea
of gas lighting, and that all have adhered to
the system Of producing the Electricity in
some central place, or by large machinery, in
stead of first laying down the principle that a
Lamp which should ever become generally
useful and popular, must be portable, like an
Oil Lamp, and contain the generator of Elec,
tricity in ITSELF i. e., in the foot Of the Lamp
The Norman Electric Light Company has
at last succeeded in completely realizing this
ideal of Electric Lighting, and there is no
doubt that this most important invention will
bring aboui complete revolution in all
branches of lighting.
Our Electric Lamp needs neither Machin-
cry, Conductors, nor any expensive outlay,
and is neither complicated nor disagreeabe in
manipulation all that is necessary is to refill
it every -four or five days with acid, The cost
of lighting will be as cheap as gas " cents
per hour), and ii has before the latter the inn
mense advantage of neither producing heat,
smoke nor caTbonic acid, owing to which the
air is not inquired, and remains at the same
degree OF temperature. II is further abso-
lutey inodorous, and does not need 10 be
kindled by match, OF otherwise, but simply
by turning the key, thus avoiding all danger
Of fire, explosion or suffocaton, as in the case
Of gas, if the key is left open and ii must be
conceded that this advantage alone is invalu-
able. 1t is further preferable to any known
kind Of lighting for the following reasons
| ~ Its manipulation is SO simple that any
child can keep it in order,
(2) That the Lamp is portable, and can be
removed like any Oil Lamp, from one place
to another.
(3) That it neither requires the disagree
able fixing Of the wick, OF the cleaning Of the
cylinder, as in the case of Oil Lamps.
(4) That the light produced is soft and
most steady one that ii never fickers, and
the flame, though being equal in power Of
lighting to gas, can be regulated to any de-
gree.
(s) That every danger Of fire is absolutely
excluded, as the light will extinguisl immedi-
ately il by any accident the glass surrounding
the burner should be broken.
(6) That il will burn, even in the strongest
wind, completely unaffected, thus being in
valuable for illuminations, lighting Of gardens,
corridors, etc.
This Lamp is constructed for the present ii
three different Sizes
