sUFIMER RESORTS.
Vh8 Bride Of
The Hurricane
BY JULIAN HAWTHORNE.

At a reception at Kings House, last winter,
was much struck by the appearance of an
OH lady who sat on the dais beside Lady
B, and seemed 10 divide with her the
hcmaCe Of the guests. She must have been, I
thought, near seventy years OF age; but she
still had stately, impressive, and, withal.

but her black eyes and brows showed what
its original hue had been Her skin was Gov

and wholesome, and age had but increased

noble expression OF feature. In her youth

the fire OF life. the pride OF viii. and the eX-
dltatIon Of romance; but years had softened
the too vehement traits. and her earthly
pilgrimage, though it had had its full
share of trials and vicissitudes. had
never vitally impaired the springs of her faith
and happiness as a woman. There was an
old gentleman. whom l supposed to be her
husband. in affectionate attendance upon her,
and about the middle OF the evening he gave
her his arm. and they left the room together.
Her gait gave some evidences Of inflrmity,
but yet retained q grace and dignity in
harmony with the general distinction Of her
venerable aspect. VINO are they-that old
lady and her husband, who are just taking
leave? j inquired of Gen. Bentham, beside
whom j happened to be standing.

She looked and saw what made her own
courageous heart quail for a moment. Above
the mountain ridge to the south and east,
towering straight up into the pallid vault of
the sky, was vast whirling pillar of black
cloud. She had seen tornadoes before. but
never anything to compare with this. 1t was
like living thing. magicallv appearing out
of empty space, bursting with deadly maevo-
lence and fury of destruction. 1t seemed to
suck in energy out of nothing, and it drew
each moment visibly taller and bulkier, twist
ing horribly upon itself, and environed with
flying fleece Of sooty vapor. Above ii. as
she looked, the girl saw a black speck hover
ing aloft in the sky; it was a buzzard
1t seemed to be trying to escape from its
infiuence-it struggled, tapping its long
wings. But the terrible cloud put forth long
whirling tentacles, and caught it. and drew
it upon itself, and sucked it out of sight. to
be seen DO more Even the king OF the air
was overcome. And now it was nearer than
ever; it seemed almost to stand up in the
vault of heaven over her head. 1t was fatal
and irresistible. black genii of death, whirl-
ing with incomprehensible swiftness; yet all
around her the air was as still as the air in
cavern and all was silent; she saw birds fly
ing rapidly by her. seward, escaping what
they knew to be death. But no leaf moved
near her, nor did any sound from the tornado
reach her. That showed that it must still be
far off, though it looked so close.
She had heard, moreover, that these storms
do not always advance straight forward but
have not only the rotary motion around their
own center, but likewise a curving path as a
whole; therefore, it was possible that it might
swerve aside and not destroy her. This
thought took the paralysis away from her
nerves; if there were chance of life she
would not neglect it, She had more courage
than most women. and now was the time to
take advantage of 1t.
She was on good horse and the road lay
before her. 1t was not the best sort of road
TO make good time on being both narrow and
winding. But it was all there was and she
had confidence in her horse She raised her
whip and shook the rein. Come. JavaI' she
cried. and they were of, headlong.

THE HAWAIIAN TRIUMPH.

At last we know the news which
the Corwin has been enveloping in
such poItentous mystery, and it is
-notning. Absolutely nothing
whatever was known to the officers
of the Corwin which was not
known to the people of the United
States before they arrived. 1t was
to keep this priceless secret inviolate
that the cutter was turned into
floating penitentiary after sneaking
into port like a hunted smuggler.
Possibly the Administration had
some reason for its trao.dinarv
proceedings in this matter, but on
its face the whole performance looks
like the freak of humorous lunatic.
To find any rational purpose in
keying public anxiety to such
pitch when there was nothing to
conceal is beyond the power of a
normally constituted intellect. If
the Corwin had come in the ordi
nary way, giving the Merchants Elk
change boat the customary tow,
and if Captain Munger had civilly
remarked in response to questions
that all was well at the Islands and
nothing new had happened since
the mail steamer left for Auckland,
what possible harm could have
been done, even to the marvellous
and fragile Hawaiian policy of the
Administration?
or course the news by way of
Victoria confirms that by way of
Auckland. The press dispatches
were right as they always are in re-
gard to matters concerning which
accurate information is attainable.

THESE IRRESPONSIBLE. =

In his late correspondence with
the Secretary Of State it pleased Mr..
Cleveland's Minister to Hawaii to
sneer at the irresponsible element
which, without large material in
terests i'll the Islands," did not pro-
pose to stand by and let the Pro
visional Government yield an inch
to the pressure exerted from the
White House. Undoubtedly Mr..
Willis has found this class of peo-
pie very much in his way as does
every man who tries to break down
the safeguards of democratic free
dom in the interests of tyranny and
misrule. The element is one which
has been blessing to all countries
by its sturdy and independent in
stincts and its brave assertion of

Unless Grover would stay and see her

When diplomacy is ended,
And rents art all mended,

HAD the Dominis been deported
last March when Mr.. Stevens was
here to acquiesce, and before Presi-
dent Cleveland had laid out his
policy, Hawaii would have avoided
great amount of trouble. Her
appearance i'll the United States as
an aged half African on a rampage
for a crown would have undoubt-
edly wrought up the comic papers
and the photographers and after
having been a source of amusement
for nine or ten days the ex-Queen
would have been carelessly for
gotten. Certainly Cleveland would
not have dared to send her back in
defiance Of the deportation laws of
a Government whose independence
the United States had recognized,
and the Royalist party here, de-
prived of its leader and incentive,
would have long since collapsed.
1t argues great lack of acquaint-
ance with popular feeling in
America to suppose that Mrs.
Dominis, even if she could have
escaped ridicule, would have created
any dangerous sympathy there for
herself or her cause. Even Dom
Pedro, the most respected and pop
ular ruler who ever visited North
America, was not able to do that.
Any Royal pretender in America,
and even to large extent in mon
archist England, is a factor of no
importance. People in this practi-
cal world hail the rising and not
the setting sun on the political
horizons and by the people of the
United States not even a mounting
orb of monarchy is bowed down to.
