There must be no misunderstanding
between the great producing popula-

Their interests cannot be separated.
There is of late expression of too much
of irritation in the press and from pub

West and South in diagnosis, it does not
help toward solution to use the term

side, or gold bug, robber or traitor on
the other Your fairly representative

ill-defined ideas of territorial divisions

men came to Hawaii for that purpose;
that they have conspired between them
selves and others to overthrow the Gov
ernment. The conspiracy was effected
partly at San Francisco and partly here
They were the leaders of movement
to be organized. which really had gained
no headway They were laying plans for
an uprising of a character that would
have proved serious. There was to be
coast help, but the bulk of the force was
to be local.
Underwood and Sheridan were to be
the Generals of the army, and other per-
sons were named as under officers. No
others will be arrested in the matter. 1t
is desired to punish only the ringleaders

Earthquake shocks of considerable
force awoke most sleeping persons in
Honolulu at II p. m. of the Sth and
at a. m. of the Sth. -Four lighter shakes
intervened, but no damage was done.
Clocks were generally stopped and a
few dishes broken. Steamers lying at
Mahukona and Kailua, on the west
, coast of Hawaii, were smartly shaken.
By rather imperfect telephone fifty
miles from Kau, it was learned that
eight severe shocks were experienced
at Punamu harbor. Experts here be-
leve that an eruption is working up
wards an outlet on Mauna. 1t is nine
years since the last eruption, and an
other is fully due Two plantations in
kau will be imperiled, which turn out
i, 600 tons of sugar. Their chief dan
ger is from damage to machinery from
earthquakes. Since grinding has begun,
that would mean some loss of crop.

They burned Mussulmans' villages,

that the rebels, beside their unparal-
leled atrocities, have also slaughtered
military prisoners; that they still per-

sells given them repeatedly and through
many channels. and also that they in
crease day by day their bloody deeds,
proves that they will stick to the end to

THE ANCESTRAL PEARLS.

The Count Of CastelIane is said, in a
New York dispatch, to have presented
to Miss Gould large number of beau
tiful pearls, collected" by his ances-
tors. Collected is d neat word, and
discreetly chosen. As matter Of fact
most-not to say nearly all-of the an
cestral jewels presented by scions of
old European families to their blush
ing brides were either stolen from
dead bodies on the field Of battle, &C
quired by we'll planned burglaries, or
received in the course OF division Of
the spoils after a series of successful
highway robberies; and, as a gen
eral thing, the ancestral estates did
not come into the family in a manner
any more creditable
We have often thought that if the
history Of old romantic times should
be written up in the plain, unsympa-
thetic language in which the modern
police reporter records the criminal
events of the day, they would make
queer reading, though perhaps not
unwholesome.-Daily Report.
