Hawaii BEFORE the Ca binet.

WASHINGTON, Feb. 1O.-All the mem
bers of the cabinet were present at the
meeting to day, which lasted nearly an
hour. The principal topic discussed
was the action of Minister Stevens in es.
tablishing the protectionate over the
Hawaiian Islands. In view of the fact
that the next steamer leaving San Fran
csco for Honolulu is schedule d for Tues
day, the 14th instant, it is not believed
thos any definite action will be taken ap
proving or disapproving Minister Stew
eus' action till the day before the depar-
ture of the steamer for the islands. Sec
retary of State Foster was the first to
leave the White House after the cabinet
meeting. He intimated that the govern
ment had plenty of time to act in de
Lucrative manner, and while approval
or disapproval of Stevens action was
necessary, yet in view of the impossible
ity OF reaching him other than by mail
communication, immediate action in the
promises was not deemed necessary.

The Decay Of ,h. "Grea, Ladies'. :.

II Is difficult not to ask oneself when
noting the death Of Maria, marchioness Of
Allesbury," whether the race of great la
dies - we do not mean of aristocratic
women, but of great ladies In Lord Bea-
constield's sensc--is not destined, as wo
swing onward toward republican institu-
tions. to die out. There seems so little
place for them in the coming days The
true great lady" the woman who has def
mite influence over society, politics and the
general life Of the exclusive, is not prod
uct of civilization-for that has existed
without her. as It did in Athens and does
at this moment exist alike in France and in
America-so much as OF those civilizations
which for any reason are stamped, as our
own till lately has been, with the aristo-
cratic cachet.
She requires for her full development a
good many conditions, society in which
women are respccted-that is the reason
why there are no great ladies" in Asia
who are not sovcreigns-in which birth is
held in reverence and in which the power
full form limited and in some sense an ex-
elusive company with social interrclations
Ct more or less intimate kind. In our
owu community since the days of Eliza
beth there have always been n few great la
dies-women who have been persOnages in
the state. who without actual power have
been conspicuous. have been wielders Of
large patronage and have exercised a sort
of influence ns impalpable and indefinable
as that Of the weather, but never denied by
those who really understand how the world
is governed.
Never possessed Of direct power. which in
England has belonged TO queens alone,
their verdict upon man, a policy or u So
cial change has been a weghty as that Of
the greatest politician. soldier or favorite
of the people and has frequently had a
greater. though more subtle effect They
have, that is, succeeded in charming, either
by brain, or by beauty, or by social accept
ability, the limited circle OF personages
who till lately have always really governed,
and who receive their leading impressions
more through the ears and eyes than any
other sourcc.-London Spectator.
