viving the forays of the Republican

with Levi p. Morton, who as member
of the firm OF Morton, Bliss IL Co. had
brought suit TO recover $3.50, 600, 600 OF
illegal bonds, and in orderto recover the
value sues all North Carolina. Mr.. Nor
ton was dubbed as keeping fence in
Wall street, and if any man in North
Carolina was mean enough to vote for

NEw YORK, August 81. Yesterday it
was reported that the steamer Persian
Monarch rescued a number of sailors
from the sinking bark Gyfe and brought
them to this port 1t now seems, ac-
cording TO the stories Of the rescued,
that the captain of the Gyfie deliberately
scuttled his vessel and saturated her with
parsfne preparatory to firing her, re-
quiring the crew to declare that she had
fifteen feet Of water in her hold, which
statement was not true. When the Per
sian Monarch came alongside and heard
the story of the crew and asked about
the panfne the captain of the Gyfie sud
denly refused to abandon her. Twelve
rescued sailors went before the British
Consul and made clean breast of the
entire story.

The Pacific commercial advertiser. [volume] (Honolulu, Hawaiian Islands) 1885-1921, 1888-08-23

THE House did good deal of work
yesterday, some of which would have
been better left undone. They got in a
fit of despatching business by laying
useful bills on the table, and indefinitely
postponing others. The passport bill,
the object of which was to put the coun-
try on a par with free countries like
England and the United States, by
abolishing the passport system, was in
definitely postponed, and the conse-
quence is that We are going to be relics
of barbarism for another biennial pc
Rod. The argument for the passports is
that the system protects tradesmen. So
it does in their bad habits. Hawaii is
not so far as we know the only CONNER
cial country in the world with seaport
towns. One would suppose that there
was no other country in the world offer
ing the slightest facilities for absconding
debtors, whereas there is hardly anv
country which does not offer much more
tempting opportunities for running
away from financial obligations than our
little Kingdom, with its limited outlets,
can possibly afford. We are sorry that
the House has taken the action which it
has, but it only reflects in this matter a
diversity of sentiment which seems to
be general throughout the community.
