SECRETARY CARLISLE has at last sent
his report to Congress. 1t shows that
there will be a deficit OF $4,000, 900 for
the fiscal year, and to meet 1t ne recon-
mends several things. One is the issue
OF per cent. five year bonds, In small
amounts, to be disposed of through the
sub-treasuries and postofhces, or the
issue Of $5O,0O0,G00 in one-year ) per
cent. bonds at par. He also favors an
increase Of 10 cents gallon on WHISKY
and tax ON legacies and incomes from
stocks and bonds. The suggestion is
made that there be no more silver leg
islation till the effect OF the repeal OF the
Sherman bill is more apparent. The re-
port is like everything that emanates
from Mr.. Carlisle, clear and forcible, and
throws full light upon the entire situa'
ton.

To use classic, President Clevelands
message on the Hawaiian question conn.,
pletely knocks the socks off his republi-
can assailants, and those weakened
democrats, who thought he had made a
terrible blunder. But there is nothing
safer to wager on than that our Grover
never blunders, but follows to the letter
David Crockett's good advice: BE sure
you are right. then go ahead" de
shows by the record that the queen was
dethroned by an act of war against a
friendly and weaker nation, which con-
sisted in the landing OF United states
troops, against all established rules In
foreign dominions except to preserve the
lives and save the property OF American
subjects. This was done by order Oh
Minister Stevens, whom the president
dresses down about as nicely as 1T was
ever done, convicting him indisputaoly
Of conniyance and conspiracy. That the
provisional government owes its exist.
ence TO the armed invasion by the
United States, the records leave no
doubt. To right wrong and do simple
Justice the president instructed Minister
Willis to advise the queen and her sup
porters of his desire to aid in the restors-
ton of the status existing before the
lawless landing of the United States
forces at Honolulu, on the 10th OF Janu-
ary last. IL such restoration could be
effected upon terms providing for Glenn
ency as we'll as justice to all parties con-
cerned. In short, he required that the
mast should be buried, and that the re-
stored government should reassume its
authority as if its continuity had not
been interrupted. These conditions have
not proved acceptable to the queen, and,
though she has been informed that they
will be insisted upon, and that, unless
acceded to, the efforts of the president
10 aid in the restoration OF her govern
ment will cease. No force was to be
used and none, the president suggests,
could be used except by an act OF con-
press. The message shows that the ad-
ministration has been acting wholly
within constitutional limits, and in
most conservative manner, and takes the
wind out OF the sails Of the president
republican traducers.

THE investigating committee did not
find anything sufficient to base the claim
that Hon. Thomas S. Martin had pro-
cured his nomination by bribery, aud
the Virginia legislature accordingly
elected him United States senator for the
long term. The new senator may be a
man OF much anagosity and general un-
derstanding in the neighborhood, but
people at this distance are apt to inquire
as did the late lamented Beck, in refer
ence to another man: Who the devil is
Martin? Senator Eppa Hunton, who is
filling out Senator Barbour's term by APP
pointment of the governor, was elected
for that purpose.

he had just taken.
On being asked where he had come
from he said, Genoa"

a few days ago. The hunter, ar
rayed in a heavy wolf-skin overcoat,
fur side outward, was examining some
traps set the previous night lie was
STOPPING over one, re~arranging the bait,
when there was the sound of a fierce
growl and a heavy weight fell suddenly
on his back, bearing him to the ground,
SO that he barely missed being caught
In his own trap. He managed to shake
himself free, and recovering his feet
found facing him a full-grown buffalo
wolf. The wolf seemed quite as much
surprised as the hunter, and they locked
at each other for some seconds before
the fight. which ended in the death of
the wolf, began The brute evidently
WIS fooled by the oyercoat and the
hunters STOPPING position, and mistook
