'I'lioy appeared 1 1 bo noting lilcn a young man wlio Ind jiut coiuu in for a for tune, mid wlio was trying hu beat to spend it and Hum going to b irrow. Air. Gibson pointed out on buhilf of tho .Minis try Hint ho far us spending money w.w concerned, thoy had not ut not any to spend. Ho roforrud to their predecessors who spout iJlu)0J0 for immi gration nlono without any iitiHiorizitiou. When this .Ministry (jot tliu money tlioy purpose tospoud it wisely for tho honor of tho Kingdom and lib .Mnjosty. Tho next itnni takiui lip w.ih "Artesian Wells." Tho Select Gommitloo to whom It had been ro furrud, recommended iJlli.O'X) for thh purpose. -Mr. J. Molt Smith moved that it piss at ijU.i.Oi) as in tho Hill, ilu K.iid it was not to ho HupKsed llt.it tho Government worn going tositisiy every iiim'm desiru for n well. It was ipiito enough to placo n sum of nionuy in tho hnuds of tho Lx fioutivo to oxeriuioiit ultli in various districts. Lot thosu KoiiHoniou who want wolls.diK for thein. frank Hrown slid th it M.ikin.i, in tho WuI.in.io district, is (JovonimiMit land and therefore it was only riylit th it tho Uuveriiiuuiit should put n well there. Tlioro wero about sovonty-liio puoplo re HiduiK there, and there is no drinking water, if tho Uovernmunt provide a well, tho people aro willing to piv for the w.itor. It scarcely ever rains there. The uouutry in that neighborhood is a dry arid waste for want of wator, Tho Govern ment would receive the benefit for a sm ill outlay. Tho ilom passed us recommended by the Com mittee. Aholo moved to Insert $2,000 for the benefit of tho M.ikuwao Fuiu'ilo Seminary, l'lmsed, on con dition that tho moiioy is not tuliuexjiuiided unless tho Uoird of Kduoitiou isHitistlud that tho money Is aotu illy reipiirod for tho institution. Air. Gibson moved tliu piss.ijio of ."iOO.OOO for the oncourajjoment of iinuiiuration for rc-popul.i-Hon. He ured the Assembly to vote for this Hem, us its object was to strengthen tho found i tion of the iiulepuuileuco of tho country. Aholo iiiiton-Uuil tliu luoro.iRu of the Hawaii in paoplo hy au iiiiprovument in the civilization of the race. In his opinion, tho nativu race would bo lost Hio,ht of by tho iiitlueiico of 8tr.iujera; he thoruforo would vote for tho iudollnito postione maut of tho itum. Tho .Minister of tliu Interior slid ho had no fear of loss of r.ioe. Ho roferied to the development of tho Hritish Isles by the admixture of nation alities. Ho pointed out tho several members of this llousu who are of mixed blood, nnd ho would ask if they aro inferior Hawaii ins. If people aro hronht hero from J.ipin, .Malaysia or other countries, and mliiRlu with us, would our identity as Hawaii ius bo lost? Not so ;on tho contrary it would be presurvod. Alossri.K.iuu.uu moand Kalua opposud tliu item, the latter luoviuu as mi ameuduieut that it be re duced tu StUO.OOO. Dr. J. Alutt timitlisiid tint unconsidered im migration and ro-popuUtion us two dilferent thluas. No one o in deny that tlioro is n want of population to cover these lands. Tho wnut has been ho manifest for the past ten yi'ar.s that etch oouseoatlve Asembly has never huiitated to pus nil item for immhjralion. Ho would much rather that the Government should be suppliud witti funds, to that thoy could control this matter as hithurto, iuituad of it (alii. 114 into tho hands of private pirties. Ho did not knuw of any place on the faue of the uarth where they orow ll iwaitans otuept on Hieso Ul uids, hut that does not alter tliu fact that this people c m bo increased. Look at tho United .States! pjoplo omirate ttiuru from nil puts of tliu world, aud ntiur ft short residence thoy co loo to be foreigners and beeouio Anionc ins. I'eoplo who 001110 here, will in tliu s line way be come ideutiiled witli tliu country, A country with out papulation is no uouutry nt .ill, mid is hound to fall out of tliu list of nations. Kiulukuusaul tb.it hu was partly ijpuiiili, ami yet ho prided uiiuaulf upon beiu(ii true Hawaiian, mid lie trusted that the means would bo provided for ihu iutioductiuu of a uuw people. llishupsiid that mm was 11 wuilth proiluoiug aiiiiii il, He was i'i favor of people buiii) bruiuibt hero wiu would work, mid not pjoplo who would Hit down mid do nothing Tliu ptauteta uro look liiK to their own ix-cumary iuierests nnd would brum men unly. That would not tie for thoyood of tho country. Ilu was lu favur of keeping this matter within tho control of tliu Government, be ciubo thoy would insist upon women coining witli tho men. They would seo thu work cirrted out propoily nnd protiot Ihu people utter their arrival, f ho hut census bhos tint the dcore.iso of tho Hawaii ins is leis thin formerly, Let us briiu men to work oven if wo havo to borrow, Tliii is tho only object for which ho would voto to run in debt for ut tho present Huio. Wh.it is thu uj of railways without plantations, nnd what use are plantations without laborers? At present only one-fourth of thu laborers iiru Hawaiian. Woulil thoy blot out these plantations? If thuy meant to keep in existence they must iissbt in bringim peo ple Here. Aholo slid that If tho item was for laborers only, hu would areo In It. Hu objected (11 mlxhi up thu two tilings Injj thur. Ho woild Him to us!i tlm inoinlinr for Koolaupiko If his father was brought hero or If hu uiiuu himself. I'aluhaii Hiid lie would nuppirt tho item If it wis for thu pnriiosii of brliiKiu hIiikIo woiiiuii to llii'riiasu tho populiitlon.

On 11 'repent visit to Kaitii ho found thuy were koHIK n mo jiniiix Kins miiy coiuu anil tins muiti lliu natives fuel vury liltter. Iio looked upon thu I'or tnuiiimo as 11 kooiI race btiuusu tliey 111 irry liil wiiiiui'i. Hu would llko Japiueso to lie brought hiiroas Iio beliuved thuy would mix well with tho Hawaii ins. Ho was not noin to Hi row any ro lloctloii 011 pistndmiuistr.ltious with reird to tlm introduction of Mouth .Sol Islanders. It Mindonu us mi experiment, and hu wnn Hitlsflcd It was mi nltiir failuro as I ihnrers; mid also for popul itlon, bfciuso tliey woro weak mid Hiukly. Thoy wero no credit to thu Kliu or nny oils olsc. Thoy would uuwr bu nhlu tu build up thu country with tliem. Hu referred lo thu Uuitud Statu I roivhi from 11 handful of lxjoplo from Ureal Dritiin to Iio tho (ro.itest n itum on thu nirth, Onu hundred mid sixty acres was ivcn to uacli cinirani as .ui in ducemoiit. lleru wo cannot ujvu thu land hecanso wo h ivu not got it. Tho Great I'owurs nru just waiting to seo if wo intend to build up nurcouutry or not. livery country is urowinu, whereas Ha waii lu dwindled from half a million to 0,(VK) inhabitant"!. He would like to preserve thu Ha waiian iwop'.o, at tlto Bimo time wo must briiit; frnsh ieopfe in order to do no. Ho would thuru foro votu (or tho tTM,t)ti and wished the Govern ment hid asked for double lint amount. Ithoiles mid that if thuru was any excuio for biirtoiiii minify, this v.w I Iio lej-al one. H-j much h id been s ml on tho subject that nut much was left for him t s ly. Wh ituver h is been Mid is Hid truth. Pupil! ititm is required, liverybody knows what ho h id mid iiliuut (Jhliieso hi former Hussions, so it was hardly neoessiry for him to siy any more now. Thu only re ison ho found fault wiih tho ('hiiiesj was because Ihoy do not hriiiK their women with them. They consequently do Rtro tho women of these islands. Tliu Govern mont ask for -foiw.OoO to conttol tho introduction of people. If the Assembly don't ivo them this moiioy, thcro is 11 privato Couipiny, tho I'lanters' Ij.ibor and Supply Company, who will brinj; labor ers no in liter from where. Libor thoy must havo wnereverlt comes from. They will brine, in single men and tho population will decrease; tho evil will go on until the wholo people nro destroyed. Thoy must seek for tho nooit of tho country mid thomselvos oolltutively. All foreigners who have settled hero and taken tho oath of .ilb-ginics nro just as much Hawaiian as though they weie unlive born, nnd they must linvo tho p.oud of thu country ut heart, as thuy havuiill their means itivested here, l'lie motto of the United States when hinall wati "United wo stand, divided wo fall." It is n thou sand times more so witli this small population. Thoreforo they should nil hmi together. What is Kood for tho 11 ituralized foreigner, is Kood for tho natie Hawaiian and nVr remi. Air. Gibson said that the Into ndmliiistrntion had arranged for n credit of $100,(XjO. It is true that soiuu of it will come back aain, but whou ail is oxiwuded by tho emigration ayeiits, hu believed thu whole .$100,000 would bu absorbed. It was Just BufHaiont to meet tho obliKatioiiB to which tliu Government is pledged. Hu thouyht that thu native members would understand that the oulv object of tho Government is to strengthen the in depo ideuce of thu country. Ho referred to thu United Htalos, where there is probably n larger Indian population than when white moil llrst set foot there. It was truu they had left the Coast; but there had bteti a largo increase in tliu Interior. Tho Indians in thu Hritish Dominions organize themselves mid linvo their onu pirli.iiuents; but it is not so in tliu United States. In .Mexico there is n imputation of U.OOO.OOO of which 7,000,000 nro pure Iinli ins. Ho had seen n pure Indian sittiiiu as President of the ltepublicuf .Moxico. General lt-Jiuero, mi Indian, represented tho Kepublio nt thu city of Washington, therefore tho increase is due tocivilizitiun. Cortex estimated the popula tion at 0,000,000 of people. This country needed imputation mid tliu Government hoped to benefit by pist experience, nnd introduce Bomuthhu; that would add to thu welfare and benefit of tho country.

Mr. Illnhop, tlm Introducer of tho bill, said that 111 n groat deal of objection had been shown to this chimin, ho moved that it bo Htruuk out. (Juried.

Tho very Sections which tlm Hon. member from Iliina lel hid quoted, wero Identic ll with the Constitu tions of tho St lie of .Muss ichmettH. He considered tint when tho gentlemen of tho Assembly looked nt it oMlmly, they would agree tint it was it good law. If pissed, imlnily iihould bo allowed hi break It. If nny 0110 will nuggust another penalty that will niiawor tlm purpose, ho would ngreo to 'it. If this liw pisses, thosu that nro now opposed to it will see their errors in n very short time. If 11 man wishes to build 11 fire-proof building he c 111 gut the money o inier mid cheaper than ho can for a wood en building, because tho uerurity is butler. Tho iiisuraneo costs him lesi, nnd ho cm got inoro rent for Ids premises. .Mr. Campbell told him tint he would put up a brick building where Iticlinrdsoii's store umv t nils, but ho wns deterred from mi do ing by tint long row of wooden buildings on tho opposite comer. Ho iitnlii cilled Ilia attention of thu Assembly to the Sailors' Homo nnd Its proxim ity to tliu PoBt-olHce. Oftentimes there Is property of grent value in thu 1'ost-ufllcn, nnd it ought to bo protected. Dr. .1.

There aro not a) nativu owners in this small lot. Ho would guarantee Hint thu wooden housos on tii.it lot would not be pulled down for Ihu next 10 years. There amidmost half a million dollars worth of houseH on thu lot, mid n hro to start In N'uuanu street would sweep tho wholo lot away. Air. L-ihilahi spoko in favor of tho Indefinite postponement.
