In the next group Zig. 3 is shown a quaint
little table Of a decidedly novel form: It's
apparent purpose is for the display OF aE'
pottery, but it might also come in useful as
five o'clock" tea table. Here is adopted the
Moresque style. The cheval screen shown in
the sketch is decidedly novel, the completely
circular shelf being a change from the some
what old fashioned drop shelf which has been
so long successful. The introduction OF this
round shelf, though, involved piercing
through the screen, but the pretty little cur
tains at the back could be made to fall right
across the opening when the screen is to be
used as protection from the fire. This de-
sign, though not altogether inelegant, is yet
manifestly inconsistent throughout; still, the

ly few substitutes for the old fashioned low
whatret, and variety of some such contriv-
ance as this would be acceptable. The small

COMMENCEMENT OF CONGRESS.

Congress has begun its session.
The new House is Republican by a
narrow majority. It's full member
ship is $50 and 166 form a quorum.
The Republicans have 169 members.
WILDER (Rep.) of New York is seri-
ously i'll, consequently the Republi-
cans must attend in force to carry
their points. Payne (Rep.) of New
York comes without the certificate of
the State Board of Canvassers, which
will not meet until the middle of
December, and there is some talk of
raising a point against him; Amos
Cummings (Dem.) of New York Is
in the same fix, and there is chance
to even up on him if necessary. No
delay in organization is probable,
but the session is likely to be long
one. Important matters will come
up, some of which will challenge
Democratic obstructive tactics.
There are several contested election
cases to be settled. The Republicans
will probably undertake a revision
of the rules to prevent filibustering,
which the Democrats will fight
tooth and nail. The consider
alton of a Federal Election law will
also call out determined opposition
from the minority, and tariff bill
framed in accordance with Repub-
lican principles will, of course, give
rise to almost endless discussion.
Other matters of general interest
will come up, some of which will
take great deal of time. It is alto
gether likely that the silver question
will be brought forward in some
shape. The Blair Educational bill
threatens to make trouble. There
will be reports from the Dressed
Beef, Irrigation, Canadian Railroad
and Commercial Relations commit
tees, and their considerations will
take time. The Samoan Treaty will
also be submitted, and our relations
with Canada will demand attention.
The subject of coast defense prob
ably will, and certainly ought to be,
taken up in earnest. With these
special and the usual food of ordi-
nary matters requiring legislation,
and with a narrow Republican ma
jorlty, it is likely that the session
will be prolonged until next fall
Exchange.

The news from Samoa, confirming
the unanimous reelection of King
Malietoa, and the retirement of
Mataafa, will be read with pleasure,
as it affords a peaceful and unlocked
for solution of the Samoan middle.
What adds to its Importance is the
fact that the rebel chief Tamasese
and his clan joined in the election of
King Malietoa, and say that his ac-
ceptance removes all ground of COM
plant on their part. So far as the
political situation at the islands is
concerned, nothing seems wanting to
prevent the approval of the Berlin
treaty by Congress, and carrying out
the triple protectorate provided for
by it, which, if honestly and impair
TALLY administered, may in time Sc
cure for Samoa a stable government
under which that Kingdom NAV
prosper.

In Answer to Rev. Gulick.

III AhS"C4 ~ AACN' -
Mr.. EDITOR: In your issue of the
10th inst. notice a communication
from the Rev. T. L. Gulick, in which
he seems to be very much offended
at a notice in former issue Of your
valuable paper relative to the run
ming of trains on Sunday over the
Oahu Railroad, on account of not
being, according to his ideas, a work
of necessity. Now, I would like to
ask the reverend gentleman if he
thinks there is any more harm IN
running trains over the above-men-
toned road on Sunday than there is
in running trains over any of the
railroads in America, or in any other
country, and whether he has an idea
that an accident is more liable to
occur on that day than on any other
day of the week?
Mr.. Gulick compares Sunday rec
reation to ':the unlimited sale Of
opium" and 'the most indecent hula
hula" and then goes on to bewail
that the laws against Sunday work
are not sufficiently enforced to COM
pei people either to go to church OF
stay at home on Sunday instead OF
taking a pleasure trip to the coun-
try for the benefit of their health
and enjoying themselves, although
he admits that "here on Maui China
men and others are arrested fol
working in their own gardens or
Sunday" which I hardly think il
fair, as, although Chinaman's re-
ligion may be altogether different
from Mr.. Gulick's, it may be- just the
right thing to enable him tx
secure harp and a crown
when he come to need them, for all
that Mr.. Gulick, or any one else Cal
prove to the contrary. At the same
time he seems to forget that a larg'
majority of the people in Honolulu
have to work hard all the week, an(
Sunday is almost the only day which
they have to themselves, anc
whether they arrange to go t.
church, or to take trip to thu
country on the railroad cars, is no
body's business and ought to be lef
for themselves to decide.
If railroads have more attraction
for people on Sundays, than any in
ducements which the churches Cal
hold out, I hardly think it is min
ister's place to have them stopped
by law on that account, or peopl
will begin to think that the churche
are losing ground. The right o
every individual to go to church, O
not, on Sunday, or any other day TO
that matter, should be left to tn
dictates of ones own conscience
and not TO the opinions of his neigh
bors, and I hold that no one shoult
be forced by law to do anything
contrary to what he or she may thinl
is right with regard to his or he
beliefs. Ill. n.

tanned In our proclamation of Nov.
0th last, Malietoa Laupepa has been
reinstated as King of Samoa by his
own party; and being also aware by
letter received from the chiefs at
present assembled at Luflufi, bear
ing the date of the LIST last, and by
letter of the 18th last, signed by the
High Chief Tamasese, that they, too,
are willing to accept Malietoa Lau-
pepa as King of Samoa; we, the
undersigned representatives of Ger
many, Great Britain and the U. 3.
of America, availing ourselves of the
instructions sent us for the purpose
by our respective Governments,
hereby proclaim
That the Governments of Ger
many, Great Britain, and the United
States of America from this time
recognise Malietoa Laupepa to be
King of Samoa.
We also earnestly desire the two
parties that have been hitherto op
posed to each other to effect as soon
as possible an ultimate reconcilla
ton, and to contribute both of them,
to the best of their endeavours, to
the peaceable management of the
Samoan Government, under King
Malietoa.

in the Samoan language, and posted
all over the islands. And this, we
feel assured, ends for ever any furth-
er disturbances in Samoa.

MALIETOA KING.
Safely Seated at Samoa-The adams .
Assents.

Safely Seated at Samoa-The "Adams -
Assents.
Malietoa and Mataafa sent special
messengers all through the islands
to obtain the consent to the natives
in reinstating Malietoa Laupepa as
King of Samoa, in accordance with
the suggestions contained In the
proclamation of the three consuls
issued on November 9Th.
The messengers were received
very friendly everywhere, and the
advice of the consuls to place Ma
lietoa head of the nation willingly
followed. The messengers returned
to Apia on Tuesday, and on the fol-
lowing day, the 4th of December, a
meeting was held at Lelepa, at
which meeting Mataafa formally re-
signed his kingship, and Malietoa
accepted that position.
A proclamation was that evening
posted around Apia informing the
natives of the result of the meeting,
to which proclamation the sigma
lures of the chiefs of Upolu, Aana,
Savaii, Itu Tame, Itu O Teine, Ma
mono, Atua, and Tutuila were at
tached.
Preparations were Immediately
made to hoist Malietoa's flag on the
following day. A flagstaff was
erected at the back of the site of the
old government house, Apia, near
Seumanutafa's residence, and at
o'clock on Thursday morn ng Ma
lietoa's flag was again flying, the
Adams firing twenty-one guns in
salute.
The German ship Sophie did not
seem to take any notice of the pro-
ceedings, and offered no salute what
ever, not even a flag, except their
own at the peak, appearing on the
ship. Probably the captain of the
Sophie had no instructions of the
hosting of the flag.
Malietoa and Mataafa, accompan-
led by guard, came down together,
and stayed some time at their new
headquarters, and returned again in
the evening to to their private resi-
dence, the standard bearer carrying
Malietoa's flag in front.
The moment the guns of the
Adams reared their thunder an ex-
preston of relief seemed to pervade
the faces of the lookers-on, and one
foreign resident cried out, Thank
God, Malietoa's flag is securely
fixed. The great American nation
is nov pledged to support it."
On account of the short notice
given there was but a small attend
ance on the ground. In fact, the
majority of the foreign residents
were not aware that such an import
ant event was to take place that
morning, but the guns of the Adams
enlightened them.
A meeting of the three consuls
was held on the evening after Mali
etoa's flag was saluted by the u. s.
S. Adams, and proclamation to the
following effect was agreed to, and
ordered to be published, signed by
the representatives of the three,
nations, as follows:

CONSTITUTIONAL Government is
hardly two years old in this country,
and it would be no miracle if its un-
tried methods should prove for us
strange. Constitutional government
is simply another name of or party
government, so that the one is Just
as new to US as the other. It is our
free constitution which makes par
ties possible in this country. They
were not in any proper sense, posi-
BILE before. The Gear Alexander
once said to an English Ambassador
" How shall I introduce a const1tu-
tional opposition into RussiaY" The
answer is not recorded, perhaps it
was never made, but any English
