n Famous Clipper.

On the banks of Newfoundland
the bones Of the once famous ship
Dreadnought have at last found a
burial place. The Dreadnought was
launched in 1858 to run with emil
grants between Liverpool, Boston
and New York. The year following
her launching she beat the Cunard
steamer Canada between the Mersey
and Boston. Five years afterwards
she made the run of 5000 miles, viz,
from Sandy Hook to the Rock Light,
Liverpool, in ID days s hours. In
1862 she even beat that feat, and es-
tablished a record which has not
since been beaten by any sailing
ship, going from Sandy Hook to
Queenstown in the remarkably short
time Of 8 days and II hours. The
DreadnOught in her time carried a
large number of passengers, and her
arrival in the Mersey was always re-
garded as an event.

Thrift. Horatio, Thrift"

The English papers mentioned the
fact some time since that the Queen
had developed an economical streak
and had cut down the expenses of
the royal household considerably by
reducing the number of officials and
domestics. The sums thus saved
from her Majesty's civil list were,
however, added to her already cOlos-
sal private fortune, and now it has
been discovered that this frugality
Is illegal 1t is said that when the
Queen assembled the throne there was
a distinct understanding that any
uneXpended balance of the civil list
should be conveyed back into the
Treasury. A Parliamentary inquiry
Will be instituted into this matter at
any early date.

Cruelty to AnimaIs-some Suggestions
From Visitor.
Mr.. EDIToR:-What was intended
to be only short visit to
these delightful islands has length
ened into a happy sojourn of three
months, and when 1 return home l
shall experience many lOngings after
your strange and lovely sights, your
delicious climate, and your friendly,
charming people. Before leaving L
venture to make a suggestion In
your columns.
1 have been grieved to find here
and In the other islands good deal
of thoughtless cruelty to animals
chiefly shown in overlooking mules
and horses and in working them
with sore backs. 1 have seen them
very brutally kicked and beaten
under the circumstances, and l have
been told that animals are some
times actually kept with sore backs
because they are supposed to go in a
more spirited manner when thus
suffering.
L was glad to find that a society
for the prevention of cruelty to ami
mails was formed here some time
AGO. but l have failed to discover
any signs of its existence, or to get
any information about it. I know
that some of the visitors would have
been glad to subscribe to it if they haC
had an opportunity of doing SO
Cruelty to animals Is punishable by
law here, and there are occasional
convictions. What seems to me tC
be required is the direction of the
public attention to the subject, anC
q systematic instruction in all schools
on the subject.
In all countries the quality Of
mercy is developed by education anC
by Christianity, and [ am persuaded
that all children can easily be laugh
to be kind to animals, and to fee
shame and outlines if they have
transgressed. In America and Eng
land an immense benefit is done t.
the national character by the various
bands of mercy. Such societies ISSUE
capital literature and usually have
some card or badge of membership
1t only needs a little effort to or
ganize such a band in these islands
All to whom L have spoken on the
subject have spoken heartily anC
feelingly, and all that is required i
individual effort to start what wOulC
be an untold good not only to ami
mails but to their masters and mis-
tresses.
1t is also needful that the polio
should be much more watchful il
searching out and reporting cases O
overlooking animals and using then
in an unfit condition. If resident
and visitors would show that thei
attention and interest were fixed OIL
the subject the police would doubt
less be more active. Much of tn
cruelty practised by natives an
Chinese is from thoughtlessnes
rather than from wanton cruelty.
l enclose my card, and have tn
honor to remain.
Very faithfully yours,
Honolulu, Feb. %, 80. e. 9.

adopted and the bill as amended was en-
crossed. Yeas, IS; nays, 30.

Bradstreet' 5 reports an increased ac-
tiyity in the dry goods market, especially
in many leading lines of spring and sum-
mer domestic cotton and wool dress goods.
For nearly all these lines and for men S
wear goods (cassimeres and worsteds) the
demand, owing to the presence of a con-
siderable number of retail buy
ers, is reported as fair to act
i've. Wash dress fabrics and caIieoes
are notably in good distribution
with jobbers. With agents the move
ment of goods on orders, and the actual
spot and mail order business done, is
about on par. The actual demand is
only moderate. The cutting of jobbers'
prices on cotton dress fabrics is still to be
noted, but in a greatly abated degree.
In manufacturing lines the feature OF the
week as regards prices was the reduction
in print cloths, due to 1essened demand,
of LILO. on spots aud futures. Foreign
goods in active demand. Spring and

mary examination was commenced to-
DAY in the case of the State vs.. J. a.
Craft and Deputy Sheriff Beckett of Mi
lam county, charged with assault on Bart
Sims with intent to murder 1t will be
remembered that these are officers who
assisted Officer C. D. Mccall OF
Temple to arrest the men who
fred upon the Santa &c train at Blue cut.
Sims had nothing to do with the shooting
but was with the Freelauds and Nealy
when they were arrested. The evidence
went to show that when the train stopped
ut the cut Mccall arrested the Freelands
and Nealy, but that Sims ran and
Officers Beckett and Craft took after and
in order to make him stop Craft shot his
gun off in the air. Justice May put the
defendants under a $500 bond until the
evidence for the state could be secured
and the examination concluded.
