THE MISREPRESENTATION OF Mr..
NoRDHOFF.

The author of the work on Nor
tbern California, Oregon and the
Sandwich Islands is not celebrated
for his accuracy, and his recent
correspondence will win him no
laurels in this direction. The letter
which he has sent to the New York
Herald is a tissue of misrepresen-
tations from beginning to end, and
it's title, ''Facts About Hawaii" is
most misleading. We have searched
it in vain for anything about Ha-
wall which could possibly be des-
cribed as a fact, and indeed the
only fact of any kind upon which
it sheds light is one rot expressly
set forth-the fact, namely, that
the writer must have been grossly
nre;udiced, unfair and incompe-
tent observer.
The truth is that Mr.. Nordhof1
came to Hawaii with his mind al
made up, and he has not condos
cended to change it. His article
might have been and very likely
was written before he set foot on Ha.
waiian soil. The sea voyage WOULD
have afforded the leisure and sea

THE press of the United States
has at last awakened to the fact
that annexation is q question of
national father than of party i'm
portance. Even that staunch demo-
cratic organ the New York World
is hedging on its former position,
and now comes out fairly and
squarely in favor of sustaining an
American policy in Hawaii. The
New York Herald will likely follow
the lead of its powerful contemPer-
ary as soon as it discovers on which
side the presidential favor is likely
to lean. 1t is rather surprising that
these journals have not ere this
discovered that the government at
Washington would in the end carry
out the clearly expressed will OF
the people of the United States.

sickness all the spleen which the
occasion required. Mr. Nordhoff
may have learned of the New
York Evening Post or Herald that
only the planters favor annexa-
tion," but he cannot have learned
it in Honolulu, because here peo-
pie happen to know better. Is it
not more charitable to Mr.. Nord-
hoff to treat his letter as the
effusion of seasickness, or as the
fancy piece of space writer, than
to suppose him 80 dull of sight
and hearing as to have composed
it here in Honolulu, where every
fact gives the lie to every word
of it? Every blockhead in Homo
lulu knows that the revolution was
not planters revolution, only Mr..
Nordhoff is ignorant. Yet Mr.
Nordhoff is not blockhead.
Truly, fate has hid these things
from the wise and prudent, and
revealed them unto babes.

The news received by the Mari
posa is most encouraging to the
friends of annexation and good
government. The effect produced
in the United States by the news
of the lowering of the flag has
served to bring the issue squarely
before the people, and their deci-
sion in the matter will likely con-
troll final action by the United
States.

Truly, tate has hid these things
from the wise and prudent, and
revealed them unto babes.
Here in Honolulu no express
refutation of Mr.. NordhoTs state
ments is needed. It is interest
ing, however, to note the malign
ancy in which they are conceived
The phrases, planter class, .
planter annexationists," small
but bitter annexation group" ETC..
ETC., are dwelt upon with wearisome
iteration. From what bitter spring
has the amiable correspondent Of
the New York Herald been drink
ing? His phrases suggest the
Holomua, and it is strictly accur-
ate to say that so far as the from
and contents of his letter are con-
cerned, he might well be taken for
one of the editors Of that mongrel
sheet.
AS a defender of retrogression in
government, society and religion,
as the advocate of opium selling
and the self-constituted champion
of usurping monarch, Mr.. Nord-
hoff deserves the highest praise.
1t is a pity that so good a royalist
should have to languish under re-
publican institutions. Mr.. Nord-
hoff should have been here Janu-
airy 18th. His would have been
another American neck for Liliuo-
kalani's foot.
We are sincerely sorry that a
man of Mr.. Nordhoff's supposed
character and imputed talents
should have lent himself 90 base
cause. We would be only too
glad to set his alterations
down to constitutional in
aptitude for calm and dispas-
sionate observation. 1t is pleasant
to believe that he has circulated
the falsehoods with which his COM
abounds, rather as the
tool and gull of royalists, than with
a substantive intention on his own
part TO deceive. We would be very
to abandon this charita-
bic hypothesis, and entreat the peo-
pie of Honolulu to plead it In ex-
tenuation of Mr.. Nordhoff's of
tense. Folly, as OLD Burton proves
with thousand citations, is some
thing from which the wisest are
not exempt. Lord Bacon was of
the same opinion, and is it not
in the light of these ven
cradle authorities, that even a cor
of the New York Her
aid may have his share? Let it be
so, for his credit. Mr.. Nordhoff
has hitched his wagon to an ignis
fatuus; not to q star. The mis-
take will hurt nobody but himself
and our grief is all for Mr.. Nord-
hoff. The cause of annexation is
the cause of progress, prosperity and
and it will probably
triumph without the aid of the
New York Herald, or any of its
correspondents.
