Most of the lotSwill go at a couple

the rigging that was not perceptible
in the hulk. The Gainsborough was
pointed true on the Diamond Head
signal station. The water merely
washed against her sues and stern.
Some distance off her sides there were
breakers, but in her immediate lodg-
ment the sea was comparatively
smooth. There was quite a breeze but
the swell was small.
Up to 2 p. m. Sunday there were
hundreds of people viewing the wreck
from shore. TO these the sight was
rather disappointing. They saw moth

There was no water over the decks
and no breaking of the iron craft. II

COAL A JONAH.

The coal on the Gainsborough is
from new mine in New Zealand, in
stead of from Newcastle, as at first
reported. So far no cargo of this new
coal has reached any port fo- which it
was started. This is the third to be
lost. The first vessel has never been
heard of at all. The second met fate
similar to that overtaking the bark

Capt. Dickson of the British bark
Eudora reports an unusual electrical
display during IA storm in the South
Pacific, says the Philadelphia Record.

the coast toward Cape Horn the storm
was seen approaching the vessels
stern, swapping and sizzling hne ball
of fire, but travelling only at "A moder-
ate speed, the wind being light at that
time.
When the storm struck the vessel it
blew with the force of hurricane,
and for time it looked as if the masts
would be blown out. There was q
great electrical display all over the
rigging, and a great ball of ire float
ed near the miZzenmast and eXproded
with report like that of a Krupp gun.
The crew were dazed and nearly blind
ed, but fortunately no one was serious
ly hurt. The vessel labored heavily
in the sea, and the wire rig ring was
ablaze with electricity. The storm
soon cleared away, and the sea at once
became as calm as before.

TIE SUGAR PLANTERS AND
CANE FARMERS.

Il has been suggested to us by some, who,
berhals. have only looked Ht the matter from
a superficial point Of view, that he object or
the planters in teeping their meeflng with
closed doors is to prevent the Came Farmers
Association. recently started at Princes own,
from learning anything of their domgs. we
saw his view is a superficial one for the rea-
son that it very naturally suggests that tie
planters are opposed to the tanners. al oppo-
aitiou which is justified neither by tn. import
ance OF the issues involved nor suggestive
of a due al probation Of their W Interests.
Those who have been watching tn" trend Of
events relating tc the question Of inmlgra-
ton FROM India, cannot have failed to dls-
cover that there is a steady and growing
feeling that in a few years the system Will
be so modified (f not altogether aboliShed)
that it will be obligatory on the part of the
sugar planters to RESORT to farliiing, if at all
they desire to carry on the industry in this
colony, and this being admitted, it is
evidently in their best interest to co-ope-
rate with the farmer or, at least, bring
him in touch with them so that the
desired results might be obtained. There
is no blinking the matter 1t must be looked
at squarely and from all reasonable positions.
The colony is now fully awake to the in
Fiction which Coolie immigration has been
and the manifold disabilities under which
the many labour for the especial benefit of
the few. and it were full time that those re-
sponsible for the state Of things complained
of should recognize the fact and make such
concessions as will meet the e&igency of the
situation.
There is, unfortunately, a conservatism
among the planters which comprehends that
all else and all other interests must be
subordinated to them and theirs, ard this,
also, is regarded by many as very strong
ground for believing the greatest difficulty
will be experienced in bringing the planters
and the farmers together. However much
this has been so in the past or is at present
