POSTAGE STAMPS.

There are about six thousand different
descriptions Of postage stamps in exis-
tence. The museum of the Berlin post
office alone contains between four and
five thousand specimens, of which half
are from Europe, and the remainder di-
vided between Asia, Africa, America
and Australia. What country carries off
the palm for absurdity and grotesuueness
OF artistic design and inferiority of exc
cution, we are not told, but if the collec-
ton is faithfully representative, the
variety OF ugliness must be considerable.
Some OF the stamps, it appears, bear
coats-ot-arms, and other emblems. inn
partially borrowed from the heavens
above, the earth beneath, and the waters
under the earth-stars, eagles, lions,
horses, serpents, railway trains, dol
phins, and other fearful wild-fowls."
There are, moreover, the efigies of five
Emperors, eighteen Kings, three Queens,
one Grand Duke, several inferior titled
rulers, and many Presidents. In so
many countries and nationalities some
really attractive specimens must have
been elaborated, but, if so, it is pity
our authorities did not borrow a hint or
two from the best; Tor ANYTHING more
bold, monotonous and commonplace than
the British series of postage stamps
down to the latest issue cannot be
well imagined.-[London Paper Makers
Journal.
Hawaiian stamps consist of three
series, numerals, copperplate and
steel. The numerals were the earli-
est issues, from 1876, and some of
them are very rare, being valued as
high as $3.50 for single stamp. OF
these there are many spurious imita-
tions. The copperplate stamps were
issued from 1858 to 1860. The steel
portraits of Hawaiian sovereigns are
generally conceded to be among the
finest postage stamps issued by any
government, and no collection is
complete without the entire Hawai-
ian issues from 1S51-S5. The most
complete collection of stamps on
these islands is believed to be that
The Hawaiian gazette. [volume] (Honolulu [Oahu, Hawaii]) 1865-1918, 1889-02-19

of Mr. G. A. Brown, which numbers
over 5000. We understand that this
collection has been sent to the Paris
Exposition, insured for $1,000, which
is about half its value.

COMMUNICATION VERSUS ISOLATION.

In returning to this subject and
considering who Is to blame for the
defects in our postal arrangements,
II should be said at the outset that,
to a certain limited extent, no one is
TO blame. A country, a great major
ity Of whose adult population con
sists of Chinese, ilIiterate Portuguese
and recently civilized Polynesians,
scattered over half a dozen islands,
cannot have as perfect a mail service
as where the population is more ho-
mogeneous in composition and com
pact in location. We must not ex-
pect impossibilities. But this idea
should not bespushed too far and
made an excuse for torpidity and in
action. If we cannot have all the
conveniences enjoyed by the people
The Hawaiian gazette. [volume] (Honolulu [Oahu, Hawaii]) 1865-1918, 1889-02-19

of London and New York. it is nc
reason why we should not have al
that our conditions and means vii
permit. We should not render our
selves liable to the imputation of be
ing satisfied with the old fogy ar
rangements that may have been en-
terprising enough when our grand
fathers were in pinafores.
The fault does not lie at the dool
of the Postmaster-G General, who does
the best he can with the means al
his disposal. Neither can we blame
the steamship companies, who do all
that their contracts require, and
sometimes more, frequently holding
back their vessels for hours in order
to take mails which might otherwise
have to lie over for a week.
That the local mail service of this
Kingdom does not make reasonably
close connections with the incoming
and outgoing foreign steamers is
something for which the fault lies
with the people themselves, who
have not been educated up to modern
ideas III this respect.
They have only to demand of their
mobiles and representatives in the Le-
gislature the like privileges with the
inhabitants of out of the way locali-
ties in other countries, and they shall
have them.
Steamships, railroads and stage
coaches are heavily subsidized in all
parts of America, for the purpose Of
serving remote districts with such
mail and other accommodations as
they require. The thoughts and
doings of the great centers of popu-
lation are transmitted direct by
means of correspondence and peri
odicals to the freside of the back
woodsman, and are not, as in the
Hawaiian islands, moss-grown with
age by the time they get there, If
the constituents of legislator in
America had to wait ten days for
their weekly papers printed in the
capital, and within twenty-four
hours journey of their homes; that
legislators return home after the ad-
iournment of the assembled wisdom
would not be happy reunion. He
would be called to account in way
more pointed than pleasant, and
consigned to the bosom
of his family with the unanimous
verdict of mo good"
Amongst the 2O7 petitions pre-
sented TO the Hawaiian Legislature
at its last session, not one worth
was reported to have prayed
for arrangements to be made by the
for better mail communi-
cation between Honolulu and the
country districts, or anywhere else.
If this shows tlrat the people are
well satisfied with things as they
are, then, so much the worse for the
people. 1t indicates that they are
not advancing in intelligence and
patriotic public spirit as they would
like us to think they are. Certain it
is that without roads, telegraphs and
other ready means Of communication
between all parts of the islands, the
. great country" which we fondly
this is going to be lies far
away in the dim and distant future.
In that case it is evident that there
IS no remedy except that those who
regard themselves as leaders in all
that pertains to progress should take
the initiative, and act for the inert
and too-easily satisfied people.

Frederick Douglass and family have
at last succeeded In getting off TO Hayti,

ited - minister. The cause of his trouble

transport him on government gun

that he should occupy the captains

nine .colored folks TO take along II fol-
lowed that the captain was put out into
the ward room. Probably he preferred
being there rather than with his distin-
guisheti and dusky company; but II was
sonle time before n captain could be
found who was willing TO embrace the
situation and the colored folks. One was
however at last caught and the heKcarsarge
has sailed.
Opinions probably will differ as TO the
taste Of the captains who declined the
Douglass company. Probably most sem
sible persons will say that as Mr. Doug
lass went out As his country's minister,
the country's naval officers could have
taken him aboard their ship with com
placency, II not with pleasure, however

with the colored brother just as they

In commenting upon President Har-
risons course, with regard TO appoint-
ments, the Philadelphia Ledger says
/" II Is q great satisfaction that the Led
gcr's high estimate Of President Harri-
sons good faith and regard for his pub
lie pledges has turned out To be well
grounded-as firmly grounded AS ifbuilt
upon rock"
Now the Ledger has wellearned
reputation for fairness, and its attention
is sinvitcd TO the following specimen facts:
When Mr.. Fairchild was secretary Of
the treasury, DR.. Edward shearer was
In charge Of the chemical tests Of sugar
at the port Of New York, and II was
found that his reading Of the polariscope,
by which the rate Of duty on sugar is
determined, was 80 favorable to import
ers as to make them eager TO have their
sugar taxed by Shearer. Sugar intended
for Philadelphia was taken to New York
first 10 be passed on by Shearer. The
Washington Democrat says: Repre-
sentatives of some Of the larger refineries
In the country outside Of New York
have assured the editor Of this paper that
they would never have entered the sugar
trust II they had believed that any Sec
rotary of the treasury would ever have
undertaken 10 rectify their abuses and
frauds in New York city,"
So DIR. Shearcr's polariscow readings
were prime factor In the formation OF
this great trust. Secretary Fairchild
removed DIR. Shearer. President Harri-
son has Just reinstated DIR. Shearer.
President Harrison has also just re-
appointed one q. c. Hamnlil TO
similar position nj New York. Mr..
Hammil was removed by Secretary Fair
child after an investigation had dis.
closed the fact that on two cargoes of
tobacco difference of six thousand
dollars had been made In Hammil's
rating; he had fixed the duties that
much lower than they should have been.
The importers Of this tobacco had once
before paid fine for defrauding the
| government. IL Is strange to see the
staid and honest Philadelphia Ledger
hugging itself with delight over the
romantic notion that its high estimate Of
the president has turned out to be M
firmly grounded as If built upon rock.
The calm cfIrontery Of these two APP
pointments marks them for particular
attention.
