TUESDAY. 9TH June 1892, u o'clock noon
the Colonial Council held ali Extraordinary
Meeting.
The foil wing Members were absent viz
ard anu 5th Crownmembers (Lemming an
lichter), LIST Member for Christianstsd
(Creagh), End and 3rd Member for Christian
sted's Country District (Hagemann and
Didrichspn), Ast and 2nd Member for Freder-
iksted BENJAMIN and Brown, and lat Mem
Der for Frederiksted's Country District
(Russell); of whom Richter, Didrichsen I'd
Hagemann had notified their inability to at
tend.
The Chairman Before proceeding to Order
of Day regretted to have to inform the Coun-
ell that 1st Member for Frederiksted' Country
District (RuSseID had since the Council's late
meeting come into circumstances which ac-
cording to s 81 Of the Colonial Law make it
necessary for him to withdraw from the Coun-
Gil if no remalk be made now in regard to
that question, he would declare the seat as 1st
Member for Frederikstrd's Country District
vacant; and it was declared to be vacant.
The Chairman notified that he had received
q letter from Government dated 3lSt May,

tor for the repairs proposed by the Committee

and estimate had been forwarded to the Com

Committee might do all immense deal of
good if acting in that way q better undertak-
ing of the matter was effected.
The Speaker: As the Government has such
strong objections to the Commission as Intend
ed by the Budget Committee, it would seem
better for the present to let the matter
drop; as Speaker he withdrew the Commit
tees amendment for a Commission andfor the
commission Of the amount.
The amendment was dropped.
The Money Bill for $500 was put to vote
and was adopted with s votes; none, voting
against it.
The Money Bill to D Z. Military Expenses,
with Amendments and the amendment to
Item | of the Money Bill for Divers Expenses,
wers also discussed within closed doors,
the results are given above under Money Bill.
After a respite the Council proceeded to
vote for the Committee on the Money Bill to
Item d. 9. Road Department etc. with Co
vernmpnt's Amendment.
1st Member for Chtistiansted's Country
District (Lunny) recommended the withdrawal
of the proposal for a Committee.
3rd Crown Member (DiHep8sn) seconded
that recommendation; the work has been
agreed on in all respects except in reference to
the piece of roa outside the Fort to post
pone all the rest, which is so much needed, OH
account Of this Individual piece, seems mad
visa5le.
3rd Member for Frederiksted's Country
district (Hecit0. If His Excellency viii
omit the plan Of the work for the road and
bridge outside West End, he would waive the
Committee, although there are other points to
be considered too;-and if His Excellency
will also allow the amount that would have
been the subvention from the Treasury toward
that work to be used for other works, the re-
pairs could be taken II hand at once and
completed.
The Governor hoped that the Council will
vote the amount proposed in the Govern
ment's amendment. He could not bind
himself to enter upon any changes, because
the plan in its present form has been decided
and approved by the Home Government.
Moreover much more valuable time must be
lost in the event of further postponemeut.
He would be willing to meet the Road Com
mission on the spot, about that piece Of Road
under contention but it must be well under
stood that nothing of what is entered for that
work can be applied for any other part of the
work. But he was willing on the spot to
discuss the matter, and if some other form for
accepting the work on the road in question,
can be devised he might not be against
it. Government must at all events reserve
its position.
The Speaker: Under such circumstances
the Council must adhere to the Committee.
The result of the election was
BIackwood was elected with s, Hewitt
with 6, Didrichsen 5, Mcdonald 5, and after
n new free and subsequently a tied election:
Russell with 5 votes.

mended by the Committee for retaining and

SLA VERY'S HORRORS.
Hundreds of Africans Killed by
Arab Drivers.

COLOGNE, December 16.-At a
meeting OF the African Society
here today, Canon Kcspes read
extracts FROM the diaries of Afri
can missionaries, which told OF re-
voting cruelty in connection with
slave bunting in the neighborhood
Of Lake Tanganyika. One of the
statements read was as follows:
The notorious slave hunter, Ma
katubo, brought back 1000 natives
as the result of his last expedition
to karema. The wretched people
were chained in patches of a score.
They were like living skeletons.
While the caravan was traversing
the Kirando country, where there
was a famine, the marching slaves
were Obliged through hunger to
dig up and eat the roots which the
ANIMALS refused to eat.
Hundreds died of hunger, fever
or dysentery. A large number of
women and children, whose weak
HSoo III pCNCo luS llGi Cis Wei z
drowned. The laggards through
illness were killed with cudgels at
the rate of ten to fifty duly. At
night they were sheltered in roof
less huts, while the goats taken
along were kept in covered stables.
Every morning the bodies of
those who died during the night
were dragged out and thrown to
the hyenas which followed the
camp. Many poor creatures were
covered with burns and sores, the
result of punishment inflicted.
Similar accounts were given of
cruel practices by other slave
hunters. The missionaries ransom
the slaves, placing the sick in hos
pitfalls, whenever possible.-S. F.
Chronicle.

RATIFICATION MEETING.

About forty members were present
at the ratification meeting of the
Hui Kalaiaipa, held at Robinson's
hall on Friday evening. President
j. A. Kahoonei presided. The plat
form adopted at the meeting of the
Mechanics Union, as the declaration
of principles of the National Reform
party, was ratified without opposi-
ton. The candidates for mobiles,
representatives and road board were
UNANIMOUSLY adopted. The nomin-
alton of candidates for the country
districts on this island occupied the
remainder of the evening.
J. L. Kaulukou will be the Hubs
candidate for Koolaupoko, against
j. E. Bush.
Alex. Smith, an enthusiastic ad-
herent of r. W. Wilcox, nominated
Mr. Wilcox for Koolauloa and Waia-
lua. This nomination naturally
aroused the indignation of several
members and a hot display of ora
tory condemning the nomination en-
sued. Hon. Cecil Brown also re-
ceived a nomination.
w. G. ACHI Mr.. President, we
recognize you as our general. Is it
consistency in us to nominate r. w.
Wilcox, the rival general of the
other party I? 1t would be a great
humiliation to our party to support
such a man. It is equivalent to our
abandoning you. Mr.. Wilcox is de-
termined to obtain a new Constitu-
ton, no matter what may befall.
To every intelligent thinker, it means
that Hawaiians are to shed their pre-
cious blood in order to satlate Will
cox's ambition. It means nothing
short of bloodshed. It is better that
we have no candidate at all than to
have Wilcox. His nomination would
be a death-blow to the Mechanics
Union, to whom they had sworn to
ton of Cecil Brown. J. Poe, the
HUBS candidate for the fourth ward,
has foolishly opposed Brown because
of a certain measure the latter intro
duced at tn elast Legislature. Mr.. Poe
is too ignorant to see the importance
of Browns measure. He is discuss
ing on a subject beyond his reach.
Cecil Brown was finally selected 70
run for the Hui Kalaiaina at Koo-
lau and Waialua against r. W.
Wilcox.
Hon. A. Kauhi was nominated for
the district of Eva and Waianae.
An objection was raised because he
is already the National Liberal
party's candidate. Mr.. Kauhi was
finally selected, as his past record
proved him to be independent of Mr.
Wilcox.
The PRESIDENT announced that p
Kamai would represent them at
Hama, j. Kamakele at Makawao, A.
K. Mika at Koloa and Lihue, and A.
Kalailina at Hanalei. They are also
on the Liberal party's ticket, but as
they are all tried members of the Hui
Kalaiaina, he had approved their
nomination.
After some discussion on the 14th
Article of the Platform, the meeting
adjourned without arriving at any
definite result.

Gowns of the U. s. Supreme Court.

GOWNS OF the .. :. Supreme COURT
Some time ago it was proposed to dis
pense with the gowns worn by the JUS
tees. I hope that will never be done,
for the gown contributes no small part
to the spectacular dignity and fascina-
ton Of the great tribunal. President
Lincoln once told Justice Miller that
whenever he walked in the woods and
saw big, fat, lazy ants crawling out of a
hole in log, he was reminded of the
justices of the supreme court coming
out of their robing room with their
gowns on. But the gowns must not go.

THREE DAYS.
By EDITH EDDY LYONS.

In A SOUTH WIND.
The swaying shadows fleck the sunny
wall,
And DER the aged roof, with lichens
gray,
The tamarind lets gauzy branches fall
With soft, caressing touch to veil
decay,
While darting birds, from depths of
greenest shade
Add joy and frolic life to all the
scene.
Thro' open door and window, naught
afraid,
A gentle wind doth wander, come, I
ween,
From ferny streams, in valleys cool
and deep,
And brooding over all, sky so blue
That joy in living merely, well might
The soul in happy languor; all too
The hours, for memory of Pain or
We drain this day the Lethean cup of
Beauty.
HIN A TRADE WIND.
Is this the world dreamed in yester-
day?
At dawn the Trade awoke, waxing
in might;
From leagues of crisping waves he
drank the spray,
And rending clouds that yelled the
serried height,
He swept upon us with trumpet
blast,
And blew the sleeping world alive
and strong!
The trees made gladstone answer as
he passed,
And birds raised notes of triumph
in their song,
AS human hearts the stirring sum-
mons knew,
And woke to scOrn of ease, to love
of strife
When strife is for the high, the good,
the true
And felt some secret sparks of that
bright life
Where, upward climbing ever, feet
that here
Grow weary, there tread glad tn
eternal year.
This life is but balance, and our
days
Are weights uneven Ior we move,
now slow,
With eyes half-closed, loit'ring thro'
dreary ways,
Now, all alert and glad, with hearts
aglow
We face whatever comes of toll or
care.
So, stable never, heights and depths
we prove,
Unrest forever here the spirits share,
Deliverance it's cry, as on we
move.
All, strong to bind, the "body Of this
death ~
Feebly we strive within this house
of clay,
But we shall feel, one day, a kindling
breath
A wind from out the hills of God
shall play
Upon these bonds, and they shall
drop, and we
Shall stand up, clothed with inn
mortality.
