ferred to the committee of the whole.

correspondence accompanied by a
voluminous message containing moth
ing new, whatever. 1t was simply
s'paramount" Blount over again.
The message is an undignified, un-
American document-simply resume
of the lying ex-confederate "argu-
ment." The most important facts, or
those not known to the public, are
suppressed. Willis report of the
conditions he found on the island
upon his arrival is suppressed on the
ground that its publication would be
incompatible with the public interest,
which simply means that it would not
bolster up the Liliuokalani-C!eve
land combination.
The following is given as the in
structions to Minister Willis:
The president is satisfied that the
movement against the queen, if not
instigated, was encouraged and sup
ported by the representative of this
government at Honolulu; that he
promised in advance to aid her ene-
mics to set up new government, and
that he kept this promise BY causing
a detachment of troops to be landed
from the United States ship Boston,
and by recognizing tie provisional
government the next day, when it
was too feeble to defend itself, and
that the constitutional government
was able successfully to maintain its
authority against any threatening
force other than that of the United
States already landed. The president,
therefore, has determined that he will
not send back to the Senate for its
action thereon the treaty which he
had Withdrawn from that body for
further consideration on March 8
last.
On your arrival at Honolulu you
will take advantage of an early op-
portunity to inform the queen OF this
determination, making known to her
the presidents regret that the repre-
hensible conduct of the American
minister and the unauthorized pres
ence on land of the military force of
the United States obliged her to sur
render her sovereignty for the time
being and to rely on the justice Of
this government to undo the fragrant
wrong done to her. You will at the
same time inform the queen that when
reinstated, the president expects that
she will pursue magnanimous course
by granting full amnesty to all who
took part in the government against
her, including the persons who are or
have been officially or otherwise con.
nected with the provisional govern
ment, depriving them of no right or
privilege enjoyed before the so-called
present revolution. All obligations
created by the provisional government
in due course of administration should
be assumed. Having secured the
queens agreement to pursue this wise
aud humane policy, which, it is be-
lieved, you will speedily obtain, then
advise the president of the provision
al government and the ministers of
the presidents department and say
to them that they are expected to re-
turn to her promptly her constitution
al authority. Should the queen de-
cline to pursue the liberal course sug-
gested, or should the provisional gov
ernment refuse to abide by the said
decision, you will report the fact and
await further instructions.

Still mills are being shut down and
wages reduced all over the country.
Uuder these trying circumstances it
is very gratifying to know that the
president of the United States feels
deeply for the disolute queen of the
Hawaiian islands, who has been de-
throned by the intelligent people of
her former domain.
