BREAK OF A LEVEE.
A Crevasse 200 Feet Wide South

of GreenviIIe.
GREENvILLE, Miss. April 4.--The
large levee two miles below Longwood.
on the Mississippi side, about thirty
miles south of Greenville, broke about
12 O'Clock last night. The crevasse was
200 feet wide at noon today. Eff
forts to tie the ends will be
made at once. Most Of the lowlands of
Issaquena county, portion of Sharkey
and several fine plantations in South
Washington counties will be flooded.
The levee was an old one, and the break
was altogether unexpected. The main
line of the Louisville. New Orleans u
Texas railroads will probably be seri-
ously affected. The river at Greenville
declined one inch during the past
tWenty-four hours.

CALCUTTA, April 4.-Further details
concerning The capture of Fort Thabat.
which is situated twelve miles from
Manipur, the scene of the recent mas
sacre of British troops by the natives,
have been received here. According to
these later advices, the British
force which carried the works by
assault numbered only eighty Indi-
an troops, under the command of Lieut..
Grant. The garrison of the fort was
composed OF 900 Manipuris, but the on
slanght of the British force was so fierce
that the Manipuris fed from their
fortified position in wild disorder. Re-
inforcements have been dispatched to
the assistance of Lieut.. Grant, but it is
feared that the Manipuris will return
and attack the British detachment in
full force before the reinforcementS can
reach the scene of the battle.

To Plead His Own Case.

Avery amusing incident took place IN
Court Tuesday morning when Bare
footed Bill was called. He was asked
by the Court whether he had any coun-
sci ? No. Had he no friends Yes.
Did he expect the Court to appoint
counsel when he was able 10 provide one
for himself? Well, he had not been per-
mitted to go out and see his friends. At
this point a discussion OF some length
ensued, and a lawyer who was impa-
tiently waiting for a case to be called,
whispered to the Interpreter: " Ask him
whether he wants counsel at all. The
prisoner electrified the Court by an
nouncing that he did not want any counsel
if he were permitted to address the jury
himself. The presiding Justice explained
that he might do so OF course. So now
there will be one exciting day tins term,
when Barefooted Bill addresses jury OF
his countrymen, calls upon them to pro-
tect him as Hawaiian and q brother,
and is unanimously acquitted on all i've
indictments.

A Little Mistake.

On Tuesday evening the Bullstin in
formed its readers that at meeting of
the Scottish Thistle Club, Mr. Donald
Mcdonald, OF the Strathblane, responded
to the compliment OF being made hon
orary piper to the club, with some
rousing tunes on the pibroch" ! He
must have been an honorary Scotsman
who wrote this The pibroch is not an
instrument but tune-or rather class
OF tunes-warlike, rousing, il you like,
passionate, patriotic, inspiring, as the
"Pibroch OF Donuil Dhu," given by
Scott in his " Lyrical and miscellaneous
pieces or the description OF what the
pibroch really is in Lady OF the Lake, }"

And louder rung the pibroch proud, etc.

OAHU COLLEGE JUBILEE.

The memorial volume of the Oahu
College jubilee is published and may be
obtained at the book stores. 1t is Il very
neat pamphlet OF nearly TWO hundred
pages with a pretty view OF Diamond
Head on the cover There are three IL
ustrations-Punaho in ~, '65 and '9I,
which indicate the change which has
come over the exterior as well as the in
ner character OF the institution. The
picture OF Punahou in '42 is taken from
a sketch made by the late Rexford
Hitchcock.
The contents OF the volume furnish a
complete resume OF both days of the ju-
bilee celebration and include many let
tiers from the alumni and old teachers
which were not read in public at that
time. The able addresses OF Gen. Arm
strong and Prof. Alexander lose nothing
OF their attractiveness by g careful
perusal. The impromptu or quasi-im-
promptu speeches furnished 10 this book
from the notes OF the shorthand reporter
all bring something OF interest and are
full of zeal and enthusiasm for the college.
But perhaps the best, the most fascinat-
ing, part OF the pamphlet is that made
up of the many letters from old teachers,
trustees and pupils grown young az in.
These letters are all rich in reminiscence
and heartfelt emotion, and the occasion
inspired in many OF their writer's a strain
OF genuine eloquence. OF these letters
perhaps the best is that of Mrs Mills 1t
is crowded with ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS, sad
or humorous-and judges, Legislators,
privy councillors, honorables and digni
tories OF all sorts figure as plain Willie
and Johnnie and Sam.
This little pamphlet gathers together
in golden sheaf the experiences, the
changes, the gains and losses, the fears
and hopes of a half-century. To every
present and former pupil, teacher, trus-
tee, friend or benefactor OF Oahu College
it cannot fail to be a source OF interest
and delight.

SHE'S ALL RIGHT.

She is not in art critic, nor in grammar
and analytic.
She doesn't know the distance 'twixt
our planet and the sun.
She knows nothing of astronomy or
American autonomy,
And cannot tell the difference 'twixt
an apothegm and pun.
She is weak in mathematics and the
same in hydrostatics.
Knows naught of styctography, which
now is all the rage.
She is ignorant of theosophy and tyro
in philosophy,
And hasn't any notion how to elevate
the stage.
She knows nothing of philology or even
OF cosmology,
For though she's been to school she
never passed through any college.
But her husband thinks her splendid, for
she keeps his stockings mended.
And none can approach her in culinary
knowledge.

Naval Changes.

Secretary Tracy has decided to send
the Yorktown from the squadron OF evo-
luton to a permanent station in the
Pacific, and another vessel, probably the
Newark, will be detached from the same
squadron and ordered as flagship for
the South Atlantic squadron. Other
changes will be made to increase the
efficiency of squadrons on foreign sta
tions, even at the expense of diminish
ing the strength of the North Atlantic
or home feet.
This shows that the navy of the United
States is very far from being what it
ought to be. In spite of the progress we
have made, our navy is even yet so
small that in order to strengthen a
squadron in one quarter OF the globe we
are compelled to weaken one somewhere
else. In the event of war it would not
be possible to concentrate feet any
where which could offer serious opposi-
ton to the war vessels of any one of tho
great maritime powers OF Europe.
In the coming Congress, which will
assemble in about three months, the
purse-strings will be in the hands OF the
Democratic party, by virtue of its i'm
mense majority in the House of Repre-
sentatives. That party will be certain
to try to make reputation for retrench-
ment and reform in view of the Presiden-
tial contest of next year. 1t has already
Illuminated against the appropriations of
the last Congress, and promised, so far
as the pledges of individuals can go, to
cut down expenditures. What line the
party will take cannot be said, but it is
to be hoped that it will not attempt to
make capital for itself by stopping the
work of building navy.
We hope that there will be good sense
enough in the coming Congress to con-
tinue the work so well begun. The
Chilean affair has shown the need that
may arise at any moment tor we'll
equipped vessels of war, and the paltry
figure we cut in China should convince
even a Missouri Senator OF our need of a
navy OF modern ships OF war.-[San

Consolida ton OF Counties.

The Reno Journal gives the plain
facts of the case concerning the con-
solidation of counties and the effect
1t had on the vote for a Constitutional
Convention in the following. Here
in White Pine we voted almost to
man against Convention because
the Convention promoters gave us
fair warming they would wipe us out
of existence as county II they sue
ceeded. Il is for this reason that the
News has taken little or no interest
in the Convention question. But, lay
ing aside personal interest and local
feeling, we believe the Legislature
should canvass the Convention vote,
and II found to have fairly received
the popular support the Convention
should be called. This, we know, is
the sentiment of the people Of this
portion of tho State. The Journal
says:
"a proposition to consolidate sew
eral counties in the State and reduce
the whole number from fourteen to
eight was discussed at some length
last summer. As was expected, the
counties that were to lose their auton-
omy In consolidation objected to the
proposed change. The idea prevailed
that II a Constitutional Convention
was called, the change would certain
~ be made. This had tendency to
arouse opposition to the Convention
In the counties which were to be dis
mem bered, therefore the vote in those
counties was not so strongly in favor
of Convention as it doubtless would
have been had not the consolidation
of counties been discussed.
As any one who will give the sub
ject moments thought will readily
perceive The consolidation of counties
Is not constitutional question. The
Legislature is vested with full author
ity to create new counties and change
the boundaries OF or consolidate
those already organized. There is,
therefore, no reason for counties that
do not wish to be disorganized and
consolidated with others to oppose a
Constitutional Convention on that
ground.
County Organization is a matter
which concerns the tax payers OF the
county only. The State receives its
proportion OF the revenue collected |
and the county organizations must |
be maintained by the property of |
the county. II they are willing to
bear the burden outsiders should not
interfere and force them against
their will to become part of any
other county. The suggestion to
consolidate was doubtless made on
the score of economy, but, whatever
tho rnotive, the question is one for
the Legislature not for a Constitu-
tional Convention.
