DISCUSSION OF THE HAWAIIAN SITUATION.
The Charge d'Affaires of the Ha-
waiian Legation received news jan
30 confirming the report of revolu-
ton. A Hawaiian representative
visited Lord Roseberry at the For
eign Office to discuss the situation
with him. 1t is reliably stated that
Lord Roseberry iutimated that
Great Britain was not likely to inter
vene at present. Lord Rosebcrry
also limited that England, France
and Germany would not be likely to
consent to the annexation of the Ha-
waiian Islands by the United States.
Astronomer Charlois discovered
another new planet Jan. II, by
photography at Nice. This is the
first discovered this year aud is No.
1853. 1t is of the ninth magnitude.
The heiress to the Hawaiian throne
also received a despatch from her
aunt, the Queen, containing a record
of recent events.
The London Globe, a Tory organ,
says: American aggression in the
Pacific would occasion Australian
remonstrance to which the British
government would be compelled to
listen. The internal affairs of Ha-
waii will settle themselves the sooner
it is more clearly understood that
they are not to be made a tempta-
tion to the United States to commit
most uncharacteristc act of folly"
The st. James Gazette (Tory)
says: President Harrison's Cabinet
would do well not to arrive at hur-
ried decision on the question of Ha-
waii. 1t must not be assumed. be-
cause the United States has been
nursing Hawaii, they are best en-
titled to effective interference in the
affairs of that country. The Amcri-
can party in those islands is by no
means SO strong as we are asked to
believe.
The Pail Mall Gazette, now also a
Tory organ, is neutral in its remarks
on the question. 1t suggests that it
would be interesting to see how the
Americans would manage the colony
Mr.. Davies, formerly British Con.
sui at Honolulu, in a letter to the
Times, assures all having property
in Hawaii that S. B. Dole is a man
of refinement, culture and unim.
peachable honesty, and that his pre-
sent position is a guarantee of the
gravity of the crisis and the integ-
rity with which it will be met.
The Berlin Vossichc Zeitung
Radical, says of the revolution in
Hawaii: The restoration of the
Queen certainly would be preferable
to tripartite control Of the country
Our experience with Samoa by nc
means recommends the repetition ol
such an experiment. Germany has
no reason to meddle further with
South-sea affairs. America and Great
Britain might best be left by us tc
settle their relations as they thinl
proper.
The Berlin press is practically
unanimous in the opinion that tho
Hawaiian revolution concerns Eng
land and America alone.
The Paris dailies taunt England
with inconsistency because she OBJ
jects to American aggression in Ha
waii while she herself excludes othcl
powers from Egypt.
The Moniteur says the great Am
erican people are not of the sort t,
be intimidated by British bluster.
The London press generally speal
of the revolution as an American
coup. The Post regards it as ;
counter-move to the British forti
flying of Esquimalt.
