MARKETS. BY TELEGRAPH.
Cotton Letter.

New York, July 22.-(SpeciaL)-There was little of noteworthy in the market today until the last thirty minutes January opened at 6.25 and advanced to 6.30. At 2 o'clock the market looked dull and droop- ing, but little later few shorts began covering and prices started upwards. The improvement in the market probably was the impelling cause of the advance. Jan uary advanced to 6.y and closed at 6.35 bid, with the tone very steady. Although we don't anticipate any heavy decline in the near future we cannot see any good reason for today's advance We would much rather sell than buy cotton on the rally.

and also for dating, numbering,

A duplicate registry, accessible
only to the postoffice officials, is
at the same time made upon

this band being formed into
book, and the machine having
devices by which it becomes in
operative when the supply of re-

mechanism for controlling the
different movements operates SO
that they must occur in regular

aid at Honolulu in the island Of

THE NEW DISTRICT JUDGE.
Notes From His Courtroom In Two
Days Past.

Notes From His Courtroom In Two
Days Past.
At the opening OF the District
Court yesterday Judge George
de la Vergne entt red upon his Of
fic,al duties as District Magistrate
Of Honolulu There were thirty
seven cases in all to be brought
before his judicial notice and the
majority of them was either dis
missed by the prosecution or put
over to future dates.
A couple OF DRINKS were the
first on whom judicial severity
WAS exercised to the amount OF 50
sne and 81 costs, which amount
may be said to be the forerunner
Of future fines to be imposed by
this Judge.
In the matter of opium fines
the new Court also seems likely
to follow in the footsteps of his
predecessor, as he imposed $50
fine on Chu Ken who pleaded
guilty of having opium in possess
sion.
The same course was also per-
sued with regard to Chinese gam
blers. OF twenty-six who we're
captured at Wilcox's poi factory
on Sunday morning, seven plead
ed guilty and were given $40 each
and costs. The others were nolle
pros.'d.
Kin Lee and All Young were
convicted of assault and battery
and got off with fine of 81 each
and S2.75 costs.
Jim 10y, who broke into a
coffee shop and stole so pounds
of coffee and other things in the
night time, was examined and
committed for trial on the charge
of burglary to the coming term Of
the Circuit Court. No defense
was made and no application
maze Tor Dali.
At today's session there was
very little business transacted, a
number of cases being dismissed
for want of prosecution.
Ane Liilii pleaded guilty of
using vulgar language. Sentence
suspended.
Young Vat WAS given 30 days
on the reef for stealing chickens,
The assault and battery case OF
a Portuguese named Teixeira, &C
cused Of roughly using lady by
the name of Jacintha de Pinta,
resulted in judgment of guilty
of fine of 81 and So. 60 costs.
Loo Fat was found guilty OF
having che ia tickets in his pos
session and fined $50 and costs.

PROTEST AGAINST a WRONG.

EDITOR BULLETIN: The 1850.
luton recently passed by the
Board of Education revoking the
permission to teach religion in
the schoolhouses after school
bours appears to Catholics to be
blow aimed at them rather than
measure designed to secure to
everybody his rights recorded in
the Constitution. The use OF
that permission was only to
prevent our public schools from
being entirely goddess, as they
promise to become if the resolu-
ton be enforced.
Monarchical Prussia, Protest.
ant country, prov des that reli-
gious instruction be given to her
children in her schoolhouses ac-
cord,ng to their respective re-
ligious beliefs. Protestant and mo-
narchical England also gives full
liberty to her people t. instruct
their children in their religion;
but republican Hawaii appears to
be bent on travelling in directly
opposite course and will have no
religious instruction in her schc OIL
houses. But Catholics contri-
huted to the building of these
scboolhouses and they cannot con.
slider it right or just that their
children should be deprived of
what they believe to be If far
greater Importance than all other
branches OF education, and neces-
sary to make them honest and
good men and women. Catholics
cannot agree that 1.-The evident in
tentlon" of the provisions of the
existing Constitution is that there
shall be no religious teaching in
the public school, They claim
that the Constitution intends Just
exactly what it declares, neither
more nor less, and they believe
its provisions to be fair and Just
to all. If any minister of religion
were eligible to fill the Office Of
President of the Board of Educa-
ton or of Inspector General, and
were appointed to either Office, so
weak is poor human nature, though
IN other respects perfectly honest,
he might pervert the exercise Of
his Office for the benefit of his
own particular sect or denomin-
alton to the detriment Of all others,
SO with the appropriation of any
public money or land for the sup
port or benefit of any sectarian or
UNCONVENTIONAL school; but where
the same right or privilege is
open to all alike without distinc =
ton who choose to avail themselves
of it, no wrong can be done to
anyone, and no provision of the
Constitution infringed by its en-
joyment by all.
Complete education does not
consist OF the knowledge Of scien-
tifc facts only. A learned is not
always an educated or worthy
man. A child to become worthy
and educated man besides secular
knowledge has to know the reason
for his creation; and what is nee
essary for him to attain that
knowledge is religious instruction.
Catholics therefore consider
that the issue of the late circular
of the Board of Education depriv-
ing their children of the blessing
of religious instruction is "a meas
ure inimical to them and anti
christian in it's tenor. They de-
nounce it accordingly and hold
it responsible for the evils that
my flow from its operation.

AN EXPLANATION.

This mornings Advertiser con-
sains article relating to copyright
NV which we take it refers to the
Holiday number of the EVENING
BULLETIN and the article on The
Sailors Home copied from
Mrum's Annual. So far as the
suthor of the article is concerned
md the feelings he may have
against the proprietors of the
EVENING BULLETIN for this piece
X literary piracy we wish to say
That apologies have been rendered
Thomas 6. Thrum. But word
Of explanation is due the public.
This holiday edition was print
I'd at the Gazette office, because
30 other office bad linotypes and
here was not sufficient type in
any other Office to use in as large
. paper as that was to be. The
making up of the forms WAS a
special duty assigned to man
whose long experience in the
business was a guarantee that the
YORK would be done promptly and
veil. The first date set for deliv
uv was December 81, the second
Sn days later, the last January
II. On the 9Th Of this month the
ysting foreman notified the
Business department of the
EVENING BULLETIN that the 120
sOlumns necessary to fill the pa
Der was set and the machine men
had ceased their labors. The
sext night the startling (to us)
Information was had that fifteen
solumns more copy would be re-
CURED. As the time was too
mort 10 enable US to secure mat
hr we were forced to follow the
footsteps of older journals and
copy from standard and daily pa
%rs. There is On file in this Of
ice the copy cut from Thrum's
Annual with the proper credit at
ae foot of the page. The credit
pas set up by the operator and
mad by the proof reader. There
sns no intention on our part to
aaim originality, nor was there a
,Sesire to deprive the author of
he Sailors Home article in
9hrum's Annual of the credit
shich belonged to him. The
g}itor of the Advertiser being
ignorant of the facts of the case,
Int with vivid recollection Of
me first case of infringement of a
copyright law on the ISL
snds, penned the lines referred to.
