JOHN CHINAMAN is so near the
color of genuine yellow fever pa
tient in the very worst stages of the
disease, that it would seem nature
had intended him for the original ye!-
low boy. This fact is intensified by
the assertion that Yellow Jack never
gets in his work OH genuine China
man. Whittier this is due to his be-
ing continually saturated with opium,
or because of the native and ingram
cussedness of a Chinaman is not yet
settled by the medical fraternity, but
it is positively asserted upon what is
considered credible authority, that
the heather Chinee is never the vic
tim of the fever now desOlating the
cities of the south. The Chinaman
scouts the idea that his immunity
from this disease is owing to any race
characteristics, and says that anyone
who habitually "hits the pipe" is
fever proof. The remedy is as bad as
the disease, but there is food for re-
Election in the statement made. If
John Chinaman is 80 secure from the
attacks of yellow fever, why not en-
ploy him as nurse and send a regi-
ment of him down to Jacksonville
and the fever districts of the south
Where he is known he is reputed a
good servant and faithful nurse. The
experiment could not but be a sue
cess one way or another. If it turned
out true that he did not take the
fever, all would be serene; if he took
it and died, all would be equally Sc
rene. His loss would not afflict the
country.

THE SOUTHERN BOOM.

At Los Angeles, the true home of
the boom, you arrive at the hotel
and are told that they can give you
meals, but no bed. You scowl,
scratch your head and wish that
every fool had not come to town the
same day you did. You sally forth
and at last secure cot in a hallway
and are happy.
In the morning you start out to
see the sights, and you begin to see
them within the first block you go,
and the further on you travel the
more you see. You are continually
to paraphrase the old song, "Mine
eyes have seen the Lord" with
"Mine eyes have seen the marvel of
the BOOM" But they have not.
You can travel around for days in
Los Angeles and not see it all. 1t
is useless to attempt to describe it.
AS well try to count the stars in
heaven as to number the new build
ings in construction AT the present
time. You will also observe that
money is not spared in erection
that all the genius of the architect
and skill of the painter are used in
their production.
And so it is in all outlying towns.
Thousands of mechanics are busy
erecting new buildings all over the
country. Grain-felds and pasture
lands of to-day are busy marts OF
trade tomorrow.
"What has done all this?" you
ask. We answer, "The boom.
"Well, what is the boom?" you in
quire. We made the same inquiry
of dozens of men in all the ayoca
tions of life and none could give us
answer. We were told it was some
unprecedented in the financial anC
economic experience of the country
We asked if it would last, and wer'
told as it came unbidden it woult

AN UNHAPPY PRINCESS.

The nervous system of the Prin-
cess of Wales has been so worn and
tried by recent events that not only
her favorite bromide has ceased to
have any effect, but maid is forced
to sleep in a room adjoining that oc-
cupied by Her Royal Highness.
Like all highly sensitive and very
deaf people, she often imagines ex-
traordinary noises, and this pecu-
liarity, which has been bore at
Sandringham, has now, doubtless
owing to the sleepless nights passed
by the bedside of the royal measly
ones, become an absolute torment to
her surroundings. Her Royal High
ness great terror is of fire, and the
late catastrophe at Exeter, following
that of the Opera Comique in Paris,
so upset her that she vowed she
would never enter theater again.
Her constant terror is that Prince

WILL IT BE DONE.

EDITOR BULLETIN There is in
this city an institution unsurpassed
for location, munificently endowed,
always well filled with pupils, and
bears a worldwide reputation; its
graduates have filled high positions
here as we'll as elsewhere; and to
have been educated at Punahou,
has been the boast of many who
have attained the highest rung in
the ladder of learning. but for many
years there has been a lack of un-
animity between the trustees and
superintendents. Why this is SO is
a problem, but the fact remains,
and / think the elucidation can be
found in the sectarian plan of con-
ducting the institution. 1t has been
the custom heretofore to ''import"
the staff of teachers, the superin-
teadent included. ] think 1 can
safely say this has not proved a
success. Why should this continue? ?
We have in this city quite number
of qualified men, who might be in
duced to undertake the management
of this college, among whom l am
proud to name Prof. M. M. Scott.
He is well known, and nothing /
could say would add to the estima-
tion in which he is held by this COM
munity. His school leads all others,
and is over-crowded with the
scholars, whose parents have had
enough of some of the much vaunted
schools, and have taken their chill
dren from there and placed them
with Prof, Scott. But the simple
act of placing Mr.. Scott in charge
of Punahou would not of itself be
sufficient. He should have full and
entire charge of the college and its
curriculum, and it must be non
sectarian. He will effect such q
change for the better that before
many months shall have elapsed
the universal verdict will be, swell
done, good and faithful servant.

FOOD INSPECTION,

We agree with the "Gazette,"
that a system of food inspection is
want of Honolulu. This is one of
the directions in which modern gov
ernments in other countries have adj
vanced. 1t has come to be regarded
as governmental duty to see that
the people are not supplied with un-
wholesome food. Competent analy-
tical chemists are employed to watch
closely the public food supply, and
to prevent impure articles being
placed or kept in the market. Homo
lulu should have public officer for
the same purpose. Such an officer
is needed, and we have no doubt the
respectable tradesman of the town,
as well as the consumer, would hail
an appointment of this character
with satisfaction.

HILO NOTES..

The Governor question has pre-
sented itself in very pointed as
pect in Hilo this week. Mr.. j. p.
Sisson, Tax-Collector for Kohala,
came by the Kinau to deliver up his
books, etc. to the Governor. He
had no difficulty in finding Judge
Lyman, who has acted as Govern
or's Clerk for several years past
but he refused to take charge of the
books saying that he is not aware
of such an officer as Governor of
Hawaii. Just how this matter will
be adjusted remains to be seen; but
we feel no uneasiness about our
ability to pull through somehow,
should it be decided that we have
no longer Governess.
The wood which came down the
Wailuku during the late freshets has
been piled up along the shore. The
whole beach looks like cold
climate woodward.
By the way, Hilo people are talk
ing about their little rainfall during
the last year. They say that it was
only fourteen feet. As to inches of
rainfall, they are beneath the notice
of Hiloite. A story is told of an
Englishman of the "oil well aristo-
cracy" type, who took his son to
Paris to get him polished up for
society. While there he instructed
his banker to let the boy have all
the money he wanted. Being in
Paris again a few months later, he
asked the banker casually how
much money the boy had drawn.
"Only about twenty-thousand," was
the bankers careless answer.

ENDORSED WITH PLEASURE.

81. A. M. writing from Hilo to
the Hawaiian Gazette, speaks in
highly complimentary terms of the
conduct in the Legislature, of one of
the Hilo Mobiles, Mr.. Henry S.
Townsend; "he did his duty faith
fully, conscientiously." 1t affords
us pleasure to add our endorsement

''' y fact, he did not. On sew
questions we were mot in ac-
cord" But we do not quarrel with
a man, or call him hard names, be-
cause his opinions may differ from
our own. Mr.. Townsend's course
in the House was honorable and
conscientious. He always spoke
and voted according to his convict
ions. Moreover, he was one OF the
most industrious members of the
House. All work entrusted to hin
was attended to thoroughly and
promptly: he always sacrificed per-
sonal ease to duty. His speech OF
the veto question was probably the
ablest effort in that line of the Ex,
ira Session.

TALES Of GENERAL FORREST.
THE ROUGH-AND-TUMBLE MANNER OF
THE CONFEDERATE CAVALRY
LEADER,

The following interesting incidents
in the army life of General Bedford
Forrest were written by an eye-wit-
ness, and now for the first time pub
lished:
In December, 1862, General n.
B. Forest crossed the Tennessee
river, and made raid through
Tennessee, which portion of the state
was fortified in many places, all of
which were strongly garrisoned.
While making against jackson (to
enable the larger part of his brigade
to unintcrruptedly capture the small
stockades on the railroad), staff
officer galloped up to the General
and exclaimed eXcitedly:
General, General, the Yankees
are coming up in your rear!"
Without u moments hesitation,
in the most Indifferent manner i'm
aginable, Forest replied:
81 don't care - -. I'll
about face and I'll he in thar rar.
While crossing the Tennessee
river (returning from this same
raid), his rear was strongly pressed
by the Federals. The ferry-boats
had to be pulled back and forth by
hand. The weather was terribly
cold and as the men hauled on the
wet ropes their hands would literally
freeze to them. Forest thought
those on the east side were working
too slowly and crossing over he i'm
mediately put every one to work
officers as we'll as privates.
The Colonel who had been left in
command on the west side sent his
Sergeant-Major across the river
with message to Forest. The
Sergeant found the General hS,i,i,lino
on rope, Alternate encourapino
anu anu ling every one near him.
re ran up to Forest and began:
General, Colonel Wo"--
"D-n Colonel whoever he is.
Ketch hold of this rope and help
pull the boat in
"But General, Colonel"--
''Don't talk to me. Help pull
this boat in or I'll throw you in the
river" shouted Forest.
"But General. Pm nt"-began
the Sergeant, when Forest seized
him and with one twist of his mus
cular arm lifted the messenger clear
off his feet, and stood him up in the
water waist deep.
The Sergeant, to save himself as
he went over seized Forests coat
and pulled the General in with him.
Forest retained his hold of the Ser
geant and exclaiming "Spunky dog,
eh?" he soused HIM under the
water and held him there few
seconds; then lifting the Sergeant S
head above the water long enough
to catch his breath, he would shove
him under the water again, and
again bringing him up would ex-
claim:
"Spunky dog, eh?"
After immersing the Sergeant
several times Forest helped him out,
when the latter, half-strangled and
coughing, tried to draw his pistol.
Forest gave him two or three slaps
on the back to help him expel the
water from his lungs, saying, at the
same time:
"You d little fool, don't you
know your pistols wet and won't

and justify his shameful attack on the MEM
Dries of Hancock and Mcclellan, it is unneces-
sary TO argue the matter. The mere statement
of his own words is enough TO stamp the Kan

He said Mcclellan was leagued with Beaure-
gard, and was working for the extension of
slavery; that Hancock labored 10 defeat the

little better than traitor to his country. He

Voorhees,, Fxcorintion of ingalls,.

Senator Daniel W. Voorhees,, of Indiana, is
an Old-time democrat whose intelligence and
observation-disclosures the country recognizes and
appreciates. He speaks with the confidence of
man of assured position in public respect
and has all the qualification of knowing that
his state heartily Endorses his official utterances
Many aSpersiOns on his patriotism he has sur
viyed. His speech yesterday in reply to the
recent vituperatve effort of Senator Ingalls, of
Kansas was in keeping with his high reputation
as public man, and clearly showed not only
that the attack on Hancock and Mcclellan was
always been as friendly and considerate to the
soldier as their political opponents, and that
the conditions now prevailing in the South are
such as tend TO promote prosperity and frater
nifty. The mere fact that the speech of Mr.. ingalls,
has been repudiated by the great majority of the
members of his party shows to what wild ex-
tremes the bourbon republican leaders are
driven in their search for campaign material.
