General, cx-C.-tliln.ct Minister and ex-Gmcrnor,
U announced at Cninmissloner to Japan, with
J. I.. Kaulukou at secretary. Probably the
organ will deny thit at utual.
The '. C. A. leaders have arrived at the
" cheap ad." feature of supporting royal meat
tires, and defending the present Ministry, just
as the agricultural journals ol the states would
seak of fine blooded stock,
The '. C. A. sa)sr "The Queen of Eng
land may be said net er to exercise the power
of clos upon measures passed by the imperial
parliament." No llritisli sovereign has ever
exercised the vetoing power since the time of
William Fourth; they dare not do it.
Doubtless the Premier and his organ will
deny there was any unpleasantness or disagree
tucnt between the Cabinet and an influential
parly jesterdayj simply a little "love spat"
that bound them still closer, though to the
community it is more like the entering wedge
that has reccitcd its decisive blow.
Quekiks. DM the Premier in his capacity
ns Chairman of the finance Committee of the
legislative Assembly ever evince any financial
ability ? Did the late tax assessor for the dis
trict of Kona, Oahu, display marked percept
ive faculties fur discerning true values? Has
the manager of the estate of Keelikolani con
ducted it with shrewd business tact ?
In the preparations that are lcing made by
the Minister of the Interior for la)ing a rail
road track along llerctania street, has it ever
vntcictl his head to consider the public right of
way thereon, and the large probability there is
going to exist for accidents on so public alitor
nroughfarc? Does the Cos eminent hold itself
responsible for the risks to life and limb from
this arbitrary act ?

To the traveler in the Koolau district of this
island the most noticeable feature, next to the
leautiful mountain scenery, is the large num
ber of rcd-shirted Kliccmcn or constables who
infest the highways and by-ways. When not
rushing wildly about on their skinny ponies
their fawiritc pastime is to sit-in the shade and
munch a stalk of sugar cane, and yet there is
more lawlessness carried on IxMicatli their
optics than in any other part of Oahu.
A sop to the planters is thrown out by the
Government in the proposition to supply them
with Japanese laliorers free of expense of im
portation 1 besides several modifications on
previous rulings of the Hoard of Immigration.
Whence this sudden flop of the Hoard ? And
whence this power that can take of the taxes
of this people to benefit any one class or body
of men? The tabor and Supply Co. never
asked for it, and when the day for rcckoniug
comes the Premier and his confederates in
(lovcrnmcnt mismanagement will find their
effort to curry favor with, and support from,
an influential body will as surely meet its
just deserts.
" Legislation is a new work in the hands of
men w hose fathers knew nothing of civilized
life, and many of whom, if inclined to be stu
dious, hate access to none of the literature by
which they might acquire a sound knowledge
of their duties, and of what is good or bad for.
their country." So pipes the AJurtiitr in
justification of the excessive use of the vetoing
power by the King, and in general support of
its doctrine of the immaculate qualities of Ha
waiian kingship. Vastly different and dis
cordant is such a tunc, however, when com
pared with that lately sung for the benefit of
the native car, and wlietcin we were told of
the signal qualifications of natives for the con
duct of high offices in government, and of the
treasonable nature of the foreign assumptions
of superiority in experience and education.
THAT CORONATION.
A PLAUSIBLE MISTOKV.

His Majesty made the tour of the world. It
was made in a very practical but crjnirativcly
inexicnsive manner. His Majesty's flagship,
escottcd by a fleet of tenders, did not liear the
Koyal person from iort to )it. The Queen
of Great Ilritain and the llmprets of India does
not do much better when she summers on the
Italian lake or lwtakes her auprstself to a
German Imih. The limes have chnngeil; the
Queen of Miclxi were she tn route to-day
would, probably, content herself with a Pull
nnn Palace Car, and a first-class ticket by one
of the ocean steamers of any respectable line.
His Majesty's reception at the several courts
was distinguished by almost as niiich display
as if he had lecn the ex-President ofa repub
lic. The King seems to have excited the Mine
curiosty in the public mind that Cetewayo
does, but this is easily accounted for. It Is n
lamentable fact that in the schools of the old
country the Hawaiian Islands arc unknown,
and even the "Sandwich Islands" arc loo
often mistaken for lly-spccks on the map.
Cannibalism and the death of Capt. Cook, to
gether with the conviction that the semi-civil-ircd
inhabitants are tattooed from the crown
of the head to the, sole of the foot, are the
chief facts associated with the vague history of
this little kingdom.
From the barbaric splendors of the Oiient
the King descended by easy stages through
the diminishing display of the modern courts
and tapered off with the unostentatious com
monplace of the American capitals. It was
like pasting from the fragrant and steaming
chambers of a Turkish bath, through halls of
various temperatures, until the cold shower is
reached. The cold show cr is the mot invig
orating, Ihoughbynomcansmost cnjo)able, and
it often happens that the bather w ith blood still
tingling from the shock of the shower longs
for the sensuous and scductiv ejoys that are to be
found only in the tepid vapors of the alabaster
chamlwr, an atmosphere steeped in tost-attar
and stained with the soft glimmer of painted
glass.
In this mood the King returned to his own.
The Shepherd Saint, still merely a Shepherd
Saint, was waiting to welcome the Uojal Cir
cumnavigator. He had begun to look uon
the King as his majcslical frottgt. Had he
not successfully put that frottgt through a bril
Ihntcotirsc of sprouts ? If the (rolege were not
ungrateful it was nigh time for the Shepherd
to lie gathering his wool I

mtrving a strain
The extensive anil tinwieM) looking strne
ture now retting upon the track Is that which
h to form lis (onlinuatfrm when Uttncheti,
wrrlth will probably be ilone to-day or In the
early rt of rrext week. It is constructed on
its under side n as to fit the Ixittoin of the har
bor, on tn which it will lie stink and held in
sitn by being bahttied with stones to within a
few inches of the top rails. Its upper end will
almtt with what is now the lower end of the
tracITi and will be to adjusted in it as In form a
gradual descent to the bottom of the harbor.
Mr. Crandal estimates the working cost of
the entire affair at a remarkably low figure ;
and ssys that when in full operation it will
require the services of only three men, one of
which will be the manager, another the
engineer and the remaining one, a common
latmrer. He estimates the time that will lie
occupied in lifting the largest vessel it will
accommodate, to a sition that is "high-ami-dry,"
at less than one hour after leing moored
alongside the dock, anil smaller vessels will be
elevated in a manner proportionally rapid,
down to a very minute as the extreme.
It is otsible that Dome little time may
clapsc before the Marine Kail way will become
a remunerative instrument ; but when gener
ally known to ship owners and insurance com
panies in other parts, will doubtless carry nlTn
legitimate share of the trade that is now of
necessity rescrv eil for other ports. In conclu
sion, wc can only express our liellcf in, and
hope for, the ultimate success of an enterprise
which few men would lie energetic and liold
enough to undertake.

THE MARINE RAILWAY.
On Monday last we availed oursclf of an
opportunity to viiit llic .Marine Railway, now
in process of construction. The building lias
Iwcn proceeding at a rapid pace considering
the engineering difficulties that have had to be
overcome and the limited number of hands
emplojcd, and will probably be completed
about January next. When in working order,
it is calculated to accommodate any vessel of
not over 1800 tons total measurement ; and
may also be used in raising the stems of the
largest steamers that visit our port, when
necessary for the shipping or unshipping of the
profiler or other repairs in its vicinity.
At present, when viewed by the uninitiated,
it is a huge but incomprehensible affair, both
as to its particular location, and the method by
which vessels are to be raised upon it, and is
the subject of many an amusing discussion
among the curious who have only their ocular
view and inner consciousness from which to
elaborate their conclusions. Previously to our
visit and conversation with the urbane and
communicative gentleman who is at once the
inventor and patentee of this particular form
of ship-dock, and also the contractor 'Hind
builder in the present instance, wc had to
plead to a share in the common ignorance as
to its general merits and prospective working.
Our ni)stitication on the subject was soon dis
pelled, however, by the lucid information fur
nished us by Mr. Crandal, who expresses him
self as ready and willing tooplain its workings
to such as are interested in the particulars.
Prior to our visit we had shared the somewhat
popular conception in regard to the apparently
odd location chosen, and the seeming waste of
money in making land for its accommodation
when so much already built and better fitted

would effectually blockade the port's entrance.
He also consider 1 that to build any kind of a
dock for the accommodation of larger scstels,
such as the I'. M. S. Co.' steamers which
visit us in tnimilu, would utterly fail of its

The .Marine Railway hat four rails, the jiiid

mainly for the preservation of balance. On
these four raits (which have an edging of
wrought iron tiatf an inch thick and four inches
