s CORRESPONDENT in Kona, Ha-
wall, publishes tale Of grievances
TO which the residents of that dis
trict are compelled to submit or
appeal to the Courts for redress.
Although quite lengthy, the article
is inserted in full, that those who
complain may obtain hearing.
Sifted down to its merits and de-
merits, the complaint seems to rest
on the ineficiency of the agents
selected to represent the Govern
ment in that district. The notice
accompanying Mr.. Clark's letter,
and to which he refers, simply
warns the owners of all animals
that if they were found on the
Government land they would be
seized as estrays. But nothing is
said as to where the public domain
referred to begins or ends, except
that 1t adjoins certain lands of the
late Mr.. Greenwell.

FOREIGN NEWS.

By the barkentine sc. Wilder from
San Francisco, foreign papers have been
received to the 23d September
The most important item is the death
by suicide OF ex-President Balmaceda,
who appears to have been under the
protection of the Minister of the Argen-
tine Republic at Santiago, the Chilean
capital, and was not conveyed to Peru
by admiral Brown, as before reported.
He lett letter to his friend (the Min
ister), dated September 18th, the day on
which he took his own life. He says 81

which am placed, and l ought not to
prolong any further the asylum which IN
eventful moments you have SO gener-
ously given me-" The eX-President does
not refer to past events, but confines
himself mainly to the prospect before
him, which impels him to the step be
was then about to take. He says: ''The
evaporation OF my enemies renders
them liable, should my residence be
found out, to go to extremities, which |
shall avoid by the greatest sacrifice

to God this sacrifice would lessen the
prosecutions of my friends by those who

and wound me more keenly. May God

WASHINGTON, September 22.-Many
| rumors are in circulation in the neigh
borhood of the State Department on the
subject of Hawaiian annexation. 1t is
believed that in the near future the ques-
tion will become the most engrossing one
before the American people. There are
those who think they can foresee trouble
| between the United States and Great
Britain, in which the cluster OF islands in
the Pacific ruled over by Queen Liliuo-
kalani will prominently figure. They
look with feelings OF apprehension upon
| the plans for Strengthening the Halifax
| Notifications, the perfection OF the Can
adian Pacific system along the northern
| boundary of this country, the new cable
| to the Bermudas, the seizure by red
coats of the territory in Venezuela, and
the concentration OF British influences at
other points on the American continent,
and more conspicuously of late in the Vi
cinity of the Hawaiian Islands. 1t is
conceded that the nation in control of
those islands of the sea would have
great advantage over other nations con-
tending for the mastery in Pacific waters,
especially Great Britain, since they lie
directly in the path OF vessels plying be-
tween the principal North American
ports and Australia.
More than anything else is feared a
possible revolution upon the islands. II
is known here that the policy Of the
Queen in pandering to the foreign popu-
lation rather than the native element is
arousing much feeling among the people.
In the event of an uprising it is probable
that the foreign ships in the harbor
would be called upon to land foreigners !
sufficient to maintain order. Naturally |
the ships OF the United States would be |
expected to perform this duty rather |
than any other, though the English |
would welcome an opportunity to do SO.
For tins reason an American war ship |
will hereafter be stationed at Honolulu, |
and should q protectorate be demanded |
the officials of the State Department |
think the Stars and Stripes should be |
unfurled rather than the Union Jack.
The above is a special dispatch to the
San Francisco Chronicle of September
%, and we find no allusion to the
matter in any other paper. 1t sounds
very much as though it emanated from
the pen OF Moreno, who at stated periods
publishes scraps tending to create be-
lief that we are on the verge of revolu-
ton, for which there is no foundation in
fact. No doubt there is growing desire
among the natives to have all public Off
GERS elected by popular vote, in the hope
that as they control a majority of the
votes they could elect all the government
officers, or at least secure majority. II
ever the day arrives when cabinet min
listers and supreme court judges are
elected by the people and made subser-

queen or president, is different thing

OK THE Stn page Is printed All article
from New York paper showing the
growth and spread OF republicanism in
France, which has compelled the Roman
hierarchy TO accept it as one oil the per-
manent institutions oil Europe. But the
basis OF the success OF French republi-
canism is the intelligence OF the people,
on whom devolves its maintenance and
perpetuity The ruler is their choice,
and If they are satisfied, the Government
is likely to remain firm. The French
people are satisfied with their Govern
ment because they share in the chsice OF
their ruler, and because the Government
is less extravagant than when the mon
archy or empire existed. The Swiss
republic is the oldest in Europe or the
world, having lately celebrated its fourth
anniversary. The French re-
public is twenty years old, and never
more firmly established than to-day.
Portugal is restless, and it will surprise
no one to hear OF its having established a
republic Then may follow Spain, Belgium
and Italy, in the former OF which coun-
tries, the republican sentiment is becom-
ngstronger every year, though the ignor-
ance OF the common people in political
matters in both Spain and Italy may
be against the success of any efforts to
republic in either at present.

One of the latest of our San
Francisco exchanges, the Call, con-
tains the following item relative to
the sending Of "books and printed
matter" by mail:
LIABLE To SEIZURE.
DUuABLE ARTICLES EXCLUDED HENCE
FORTH FROM THE MAILS.
Collector OF the Port Phelps received a
ruling yesterday on the Act of 1890 and
Article ii OF the Universal Postal Con-
Vention that will exclude hereafter the
sending OF books and printed matter
through the mails, and bring about the
seizure of all such now en- route and ar
irving alter to-day in the United States
foreign mails.
Since 1884, by the Act approved the
year previous, printed matter and books
could be sent through the mails on the
payment of the duties required BY law.
This ruling reverses that usage COM
pletely, and Deputy-Collector Jerome
will seize all dutIable articles hereafter
appearing in the mails.
From this 1t would appear that
books are hereafter contraband in
the mails sent to the United States
except IN the parcel post mail,
where dutiable articles go. What
is classed as "printed matter is
not stated, but probably refers to
maps, charts and such like. which
are not very frequently sent from
this kingdom. On inquiry, we find
that no notice has been received
by the Postmaster General or by
the United States Consul General
regarding this new regulation,
which must tend to greatly restrict
intercourse between foreign co1n-
tries and the United States.
By the reciprocity treaty of 1876
all books and printed matter may
be sent from the United States to
Hawaii free of duty; but by some
oversight the same privilege was
not accorded to Hawaiian pubIica-
tions sent to the United States,
probably because it was thought
by the trainers of the treaty as a
privilege not worth asking for.
The next mail may bring further
adVlces relative to this new regu-
lation.

PARIS. September 22-The Steele pub
fishes dispatch from its correspondent
in Baden, giving the substance of a
speech said TO have been made by the
Grand Duke at the close of the recent
man9uvers Of the Southwest Army.
According to the dispatch he said in part:
1--WE must meet the future with energy
and resolution
1.-The time is near when Germany
must again unsheath her sword in de-
tense of her independence against an
enemy who has not learned prudence by
bloody defeat. II will be the duty of the
valiant corps OF Baden to support the
first onset, TO fire the first shot and carry
the palm of victory" He referred to the
''culpable proceedings Of our neighbors,
who are only awaiting propitious oc-
casion 10 again open an era of bloody
conspiracy"
LONDON, September 22.-The Stan
dard's correspondent at Sebastopol says:
A party of officers has been sent from st.
Petersburg to survey the Crimea and pre-
pare typographical plans for the War
This fact is much COM
mented upon in military circles.

from Admiral Belknap to-day announces |
the arrival of the Charleston at Yoko-
hama, Japan, yesterday.
SHANGHAI, September 22.-The situa-
ton here is much worse. Disorders are
at Ichang, and this is the pre- |
lude to other disorders. The Valley of
The Yang-tse- Kiang is in rebellion. WI
chang, the central seat of the Viceroy, is
ready to revolt, and Hankow and Cham
King are likely to follow. The latter
own is difficult TO defend by war-ships,
owing to the shallowness OF the river.
Great excitement prevails. Strangers
ire fleeing from Shanghai, which is
lmong the threatened towns, but mea-
ures Of defense are being taken. Three
hips OF war are at Wuchang, and fleets
re concentrating at Shanghai. Minister
1emaire, OF France, has left here for
'ekin.

The long-expected orders arrived from
Washington on Wednesday night, and
her entire crew was hard at work yester-
day forenoon receiving a supply Of stores
for the run down to the islands, where
she will in all probability remain for
long time. The probabilities are that
this will be the last cruise OF the old
craft, as she will no doubt be condemned
on her return to the United States .

PARIS, April 2.-The French papers
discuss the Fava affair for the most part
in temperate tone, except LIE Temps,
which refers to Americas speedy action
in sending ironclads to Tangier, in the
case OF maltreatment, of American citi-
zens, and adds: '"It is strange contra
diction for America to decline RESPONSE
bility when foreigners are involved"
The Royalist Gazette de France taunts
Italy upon its own glaring violations of
international law from the invasion of
the Pontiical states to the massacre in
Ethiopia.
BERLIN, April 2.--The Fava affair oc-
cupied all the papers here. The Con-
servative and National Liberal papers
regard the action of Rudini correct; the
Radicals think he was too hasty. A
diplomatist in an interview today said
he hoped the withdrawal of Baron Fava
would leave the Washington government
unmoved, and would punish only the
Italians themselves.
BERLIN, April 2.-The National lei
tung says Baron Fava's note to Mr..
Blaine is perfectly correct, adding
"Italy was right in not wishing to dis
cuss American institutions. and in call
ing attention to the principles OF inter-
national law. RI
The Vosiche Zeitung today remarks.
that italian news is reassuring, in the
face of the hostile attitude of American
press, and hopes more reliance can be
placed upon the former than on the
"bombastic utterances of Mr.. Blaine,
who is accustomed to hide weak reasons
with strong words"
