OF INTEREST TO MANAGERS
OF PLANTATIONS.

A Model Plant is not complete without
Electric Power, thus dispensing with
small engines.
Why not generate your power from oaG
CENTRAL Station? One generator can
furnish power to your Pumps, Centri
fugals, Elevators, Plows, Railways and
HOSTS; also furnish light and power fog
a radius of from IS to 20 miles.
Electric Power being used saves the
labor of hauling coal in your field, also
water, and does away with hgh-price6
engineers, and only have one engine to
look after in your mill.
Where water power is available it costs
nothing to generate Electric Power.
The HAWAIIAN ELECTRIC COMPANY
is now ready to furnish Electric Plants
and Generators of all descriptions at short
notice, and also has on hand a large
stock of Wire, Chandeliers and all EIec-
trical Goods.
All orders will be given prompt atten-
ton, and estimates furnished for Lighting
and Power Plants: also attention is given
to House and Marine Wiring.

shortly after 10 a. III. Wednes-

the big O. Y q. :. :. Copic around
and headed her for the channel.
This done she hauled in alongside
her and the band stationed aboard
struck up lively music in honor of

went we'll until the Coptic swung
around and headed toward Dia-
mOnd Head. The Eleu was not
expecting the steamer to turn 50
soon and Captain Rice had his
wheel hard port. There was no
time TO get out of the way and the
stern of the Coptic struck the
stern of the tug making quite an
impression. Everyone on the tug
boat made a profound bow and
one of the band boys went so far
as To faint in honor of the Occa-
sion. The tugbOat concluded she
had had enough for one days eX-
perience and made for shore as
fast as possible. In speaking of
the matter Captain Rice said
Iaughingly. Il think it was Il COW

hit such a small one, and that too

PERSONAL.

Andrew J. Patterson. of Tennessee, who has
been appointed United States Consul at DEM
arars, is grandson of ex-President Johnson.
Capt james Kennedy who died short time
ago In England. was an ex-Commodore of the
Inman line, but he will be best remembered as
the commander of the Great Eastern, when, in
1861, she conveyed 1000 troops from London
to Quebec, a dense fog prevailing during the
greater part of the voyage. He was only "a
years of age at the time, but had had previous
experience in carrying troops to the Crimea
and to India. During his Atlantic career, his
geniality and kindly attention to passengers
earned him hundreds of friends.
Col. David s. Brown. of the National Coun-
ell of Admin stration, sailed for Egypt Jan. A.
by the steamer Normannis. On the preceding
evening the Colonial Club of New York City
entertained COmrade Brown by giving q din
ner in his honor. and large portrait of him.
self was unvaled and presented by some of
his friends to the club.
Dr. John FL. Cook, Past Medical Director of
the Department, and Past Commander of z. A.
kimbsll Post. 100, is of the sturdiest
among the veterans of New York's Grand
Army Posts. Although he has left his 60th
milestone of life three years in the rear and
his locks are an iron-gray, he Is as active and
erect as when he first went to the front with
his regiment. At the last Encampment of
Kimball Post, held on Saturday evening, DIR.
Cook made little speech to his comrades, in
which he said: Boys, they tell US that this
life is made up of sunshine and shadow, but so
far must say that mine has contained far
more sunshine than the shadow. We cannot
tell what is before u.s. but let US hope that the
declining years of all of us may be bright and
sunshiuy to the last" When the hardy old
veteran, who still makes his daily rounds
among his patients. just as he did 20 years ago,
sat down the gray-hared boys" who sur.
rounded him one man and gave him
three hearty cheers.
The newly-elected Commander of Lafayette
Post, New York, is Comrade Henry III. Adams
He is descendant of the famous Adams family
of Braintree, Mass. He was too young to enter
the army when Fort Sumter was fred on, but
the following year he Joined with Colonel latter
ward GeneraD Emerson Opdycke in organizing
the 125th Ohio, and served faithfully during
the remainder of the war in the Army of the
Cumberland. He was taken prisoner at Athens,
Ala, and was kept in close confinement for
several months, enduring severe hardships.
He was exchanged at yicksburg, and reported
for duty on the morning of the battle of Nash
vile, in which he served on the staff of Gen.
Opdycke, as Acting Aid. Commander Adams

CONGRESS should not haggle about
giving Gen. McClernand pension of
500 a month. Whatever criticism may
be deserved Of his course in the Vicks-
burg campaign, be was great strength

war, and fought splendidly at Fort
Donelson and Shiloh. When the war
broke out he was Representative from
Illinois, and one of the most popular and
Influential politicians in the State. lie
resigned his seat to accept BrigadIer-
Generals commission. While we think
that Gen. Grant was entirely right in
relieving him of his command, yet his
services prior to the Vicksburg cam
paign certainly make the broken old
man deserving of this pension for the
few remaining years of his life. He is
now so years old, very feeble, and can
not live long. Give him enough to
make what few days yet remain to him
as cheerful as possible.

LISTEN To the BUGLE CALL.

COMRADES In rallying for the great
battle for your rights do not forget
your standard bearer-THE NATIONAL
TRIBUNE. Most necessary to your bat
tie is it that it should be made as strong
as possible for the great contest this
Winter.
We are going to have a harder fight
during the next session of Congress than
ever. Our enemies in Congress are far
from being satisfied with the injury they
have already done us, but contemplate
still another raid.
THE NATIONAL. TRIBUNE is the main
friend and champion the comrades have
here at the National Capital and in the
whole country. 1t will make a stub
born fight to save the veterans from the
wicked robbery contemplated. 1t can
do more than any other paper or agency
can.
Therefore, it is to your interest to
build up the paper to the utmost, and
make it as strong as possible in every
community. The more subscribers it
has behind it, the stronger battle it can
make for you and all comrades. There
fore, see that your name is on its lists,
and that as many as possible of your ac-
quaintances subscribe for it. If not
already subscriber send in your name
at once, and get at least one more. Get
up club if possible. We want every
veteran to rally around our flag for one
more effort. We all have to fight now,
and THE NATIONAL TRIBUNE will lead.
Let it head column of at least 100000
subscribers. Then all the power of the
Solid South cannot prevail against it.
Help us now, and by SO doing help
yourselves most effectively.

HENRY CLEws d Co.'s Circular saws:

Wall street can scarcely be said to be opti.
rlistic as to the position of the Treasury in
relation to gold. II anticipates steady
decline in the Treasury stock of the metal
and necessity for the Government borrow
ing another 100000 to replenish It's gold
reserve In the course of few months, unless
Congress should devise means for averting
that result, of which, however, there is not
much expectation. Some uneasness is caused
by the steady Withdrawals Of gold from the
Treasury, materially in excess of what is
required for current exports of the metal.
The drain appears to come from the banks,
and 10 be for their own account, and is prob
ably caused by desire to recoup themselves
for the large amounts they parted with in
their subscriptions for the late loan. No
more serious motive is supposed 10 be mt the
bottom Of the movement, and it is expected
TO prove only transient.
That is, instead of taking their green
backs to the Treasury and getting gold
for them, they shrewdly bought bonds
with gold and then proceeded to draw
the gold out on their greenbacks. They
are ahead on the transaction by the

SEELEY has been sent to the peniten-
tiary for eight years. BY good conduct
he can reduce this to five and one-half
years, or one month for every $1,000
that he stole. The moral to this-if
there are any morals in it's that if a
man is going to be thief he had better
be great big thief. He would have
gotten about the same measure of pun
ishment if he had stolen 1854, instead of
