From roriiJeratioii lik th-, we invite the attention of ti. inking men in our community to thi jrojuition of ome miliication of our prwnt jii'licial ny-t-iu. A more uniform a-J-tninifiration of law can be cflectei fven on the j rt rent aj .roj.riati.n for the Dejortmcnt of the .Ju Jiciary, by which thi arm of the government wouM be ma'le more etlicii-nt. J or instance, we liave three Justice of the Supreme Court resident in Honolulu, whose time woulJ be fettr ntilize'l if th-y were requirci to perform Kme of the duties now jerfornied by fArly paid Circuit .Judge and by District and I'olice Justice). Our tybtcm of double appeals 'i3 fxpen-i?e and op-o to wrioutj objectiona. The Circuit Judges have no original jurisdiction ex cept in J'robatc matters and therefore eerve merely as intermediate apellate courts, by which coets and exjense9 accumulate, evidence is loet and witneoes are more likely to be tampered with. Any party can appeal from a District or I'olice Justice to a Circuit Judge, and again to a Circuit or the Supreme Court. This is worse than useless. We should eay that there should be a Justice of the Supreme Court resident in each circuit, and that appeals should lie directly from the decision of a Magistrate to a jury on facts, or to the Supreme or Circuit Court with out jury, on the law, with the usual writs of error and bills of exceptions to the Supreme Court in banco. The banco terms of this court could be held here semi-annually by all the Justices, with power in the Chief Justice to call a special quar terly term, whenever the needs of justice require. The District Justices could lc made eimilar to Koglish Justices of the Peace, by diminishing their present jurisdiction both in civil and crim inal causes, giving them power to try matters of lesa im'tortance tha"u they now try, and to bind over parties for trial at the jury terms. We should have then a more uniform and intelligent administration of justice upon the circuits than is possible under the present system. In lessen ing the work of the District Justices, their sala ries could be reduced accordingly. The present twenty District Justices would well be paid an average salary of $200, instead of $300 as now. The I'olice Courts of Hiio and Lahaina could be sustained by District Justices with a salary of $500, instead of their present salary of $1,000. The offices of Circuit Judges being aloliBhed, these changes would permit $3,500 annually to bo transferred to two more Justices of the Su preme Court. This would give us five Justices for our highest Tribunal, who would sit in banco at stated terms in Honolulu, and would hold all trials at Nisi lrius, in LVjuity, Probate and Ad miralty on the circuits to which they are as signed, besides trying many of the causes now brought before the lower magistrates. These suggestions of course would require full consideration, and undoubtedly would receive further modification. Uut we think they furnish a basis of improvement. The economy of pub lic funds in costa and fines alone which would re- Fult from abolishing double appeals, would more than compensat for any increased expenditure which hucIa changes might at first involve. But the paving to private parties would be still greater. We have no latth hi hasty legislation, more spt'Cially in uch matters; but we believe in using our money and our men to the best advan tage. This is not a question of the convenience or the necewiiticH of individuals, but of the whoI. country, ami as ruu h wc commend it as worthy of consideration. FOREST PRESERVATION. Previous to and during the serion of the Leg islature of 1872, wc called attention rci.eatedly to the importance of taking measures by legal en actment for the r.repervation of the forests of the Island.-. We adduced numerous examples of fine climates ruined and fertile countries turned into deserts through the improvident destruction of forests ; but the then Ministry were wiser than we, declaring that trees in no wise affected cli mate, and convinced the majority of the Assembly of that fact, and po nothing was done with our bill for the preservation of the forests, and the work of destruction ges recklessly on. We shall not fail however to again bring the subject to the attention of the Legislature, during the coming session. In the northeastern corner of the b'tateof New York, is the principal group of the Adirondack mountains. Here over a space of nearly two million acres, once was densely covered with val uable forest trees, but for years it has been ruthlessly devastated to obtain lumber for the cities, bark for the tanneries, and ashes for chemical compounds. The mountains are rich in magnetic iron ore of a superior quality, and there has been a gTeat waste of wood in smelting it. No trees have leen planted to compensate for the destruction which has thus been going on. From this range of mountains two rivers discharge their waters into Lake Champlain, others into the 5t. Lawrence, and others still into the Hudson. Now the intelligent people of New York are greatly exercised about the rapid destruction of these forests. They believe that the trees shelter the sources of the rivers from solar evaporation ; that they exercise a well-ascertained influence on climate and the public health ; that they secure also the purity and volume of water required for the supply of the ?tate. The Legislature, at the suggestion of several scientific gentlemen, ap-l-ointcd a commissiuii to investigate the matter and to recommeud what action should be taken in the premises. The Hon. Horatio Seymour, who is 1 'resident of the Commission, has recommended that about one-half of the whole area referred to, 834,48(1 acres, constituting the water-shed from which tlie Hudson receives its supply, shall be enclosed and set apart as a State I'ark. There is every probability that this grand scheme, devised by intelligent, practical m-n, for the preservation of the wood lands from exhaustion by carelessness or rapacity, will lc carried out, and future gen crati'Tis in the Kuipirc State will reap the benefit of the wis? foresight of the men of the present. Shall wc of Hawaii nei Jk warned in time, or shall we supinely p-rmit the work of forest de struction to 20 on unchecked, to the ultimate I drying up d' ur J.ind?and the ruin of .ur rlimnte? ! THE CURRENCY. At the meeting of the Chamber of Commerce : on Wednesday l.t-t. n the rec.jmmendati.n of the Committee :ipi:inte i at the previous meeting, , a Ilcsoluti m was adopted, memorializing the j Minister 'f Finance to receive at th Treasury j mtain gold O'iLS at a rate higher than they now j pass fir in tlv country. The following are the j changes recommended by tlie Committee: I'rurtit rntr. I'rnpol'd. Kn.ift auJ Au:rui..i;i s-.v.-reijcji $ 4 75 $5 00 - 2o7i 2 50 iKrt.t.iu' r.

I...T- 1 75 4 oo It - 1 -7 2 00 Ra-.an 5 rvuM- - 75 4 OU Uy the Act of 172, 44 To r- gulate the Cur rency,"' the King in I'rivy Council is empowered to fix the alue at whi. hall g .ll and silver coins, other than Am-rican, shall le receivable in pay ment f government dues, duties and taxes at the Treasury, and also as legal tender in the jiiyment of debts between private individuals. Should l.rt r. .'.mri rnt fin.l. tr. fli rr.Tn r.r 1:1 1 fif thp Chamber, the object will doubtless be attained of I keeping sufficient gold coin in the country for the ordinary purposes of trade, and the exigencies of the moment being tided over, complaints about the currency will cease fr a time. 44 Sufficient unto the day is the evil thereof;" but the fact nevertheless remains that tinkering with the currency alniDf-t invariably makes mat ters worse in the end. By the adoption of tlie plan as proposed, we shall acquire a sufficiency of coin, but which once here, at the enhanced values, will always remain, unless a turn in the tide of our affairs shall induce us to again depreciate the values, when coin may become an article of commer cial exchange. If the balance of trade now against us, (and which fact is solely at tlie bot tom of this currency trouble) shall a year hence continue to present the same aspect as now, the question of exchange will be an interesting one, for we shall have no coin with which to pay our bills abroad. Hut if, as may reasonably be hoped, in the course of time the balance of trade fchall be in our favor, and San Francisco be owing us, it will be quite easy and very natural for our debtors there to buy up the gold which we re ceive at a fictitious value and send it to us, in stead of American coin. The difference between the valuation here and there of sovereigns, etc., will make it well worth the while of the consum ers of our produce to pay us in the kind of cur rency upon which we shall have placed such a handsome premium, instead of allowing us to draw bills. So that, in either case, by inflating the currency as proposed, wc may only be pro viding the way to effectually embarrass business and exchange in the future. It would have been of interest to the public, who are immediately concerned, had the Chamber of Commerce ordered the report of their Commit tee to be published in full, in order that the ar guments might be known upon which the pro posed changes are recommended. It is possible, however, that the Committee were not sufficiently proud of their report as to allow it to run the gauntlet of criticism. Or perhaps it is thought better to spring an important measure on the people without giving any reasons, as of old. PERSIA. Mo6t contradictory opinions have appeared in the newspapers respecting the contract between liaron de Keuter and the Shah of Persia. The London Times of June 18th, described in full the 44 concession," as it is termed. Under this contract, Baron de Keuter acquires the exclusive right to build railroads, construct canals, work mines and carry on all public improvements in the Persian dominions. He is authorized to ap propriate the Ciovcrnment lands at his own will, and to use the Government quarries free of ex pense. If he wants private lauds or mines, it is guaranteed that he shall have them at the ordi nary prices of the country. All his men and materials are to be exempt from taxation. Any mineral deposit on the royal lands, except gold, silver and precious stones, he is at liberty to take. He is to have the entire control and dis position of the custom houses and duties on the payment of $1,100,000 a year and capable of being much increased. In return for these extra ordinary privileges he is to pay from fifteen to twenty per cent, of the net earnings to the (iov ernment, and the agreement is to continue seventy years with Baron de Ileuter and his successors. His first work is to construct a railroad from Rescht to Ispahan, a distance of about four hun dred miles, and running across a considerable part of the Persian territory. For this he is authorized to negotiate a loan of $30,000,000, and the Government guarantees seven per cent, on it. By this agreement the Shah practically resigns all control over the commercial afihirs of hi kingdom. The British Trade Journal thinks it is an ill judged arrangement on the part of Persia, as the only immediate obligation trie concessionaire seems to be under is to lodge 40,000 in the Bank of Kngland within fifteen months of the date of the concession, to be refunded in ex change for a certificate from the Governor of Rescht, on the Caspian, confirming the arrival at Enzeli of the rails necessary to carry the line from Rescht to Teheran. It is declared that there is not the smallest prospect of a line from the Caspian to the Persian Gulf, or any part of such a line, ever returning its expenses ; anil it is doubted if Baron de Reuter's scheme, in its present shape, can be made to succeed. The London Sptctator thinks it will be impossible to carry out the terms without conflict between the Government and de Reuter, and that the latter will have the people whom he will oppress, as well as the authorities arrayed against him. Other papers say that the scheme is to open to the Baron a field of incalculable gain. Baron de Reuter is represented to be a man of great dar ing, shrewdness and good common sense. What he has done is to commence for Persia a company to accomplish for that kingdom what the East India Company did for India, with the advan tage of the experience of that company for his guidance. In the present impoverished condition of Persia, perhaps this contract may prove the best thing that her case would admit of. The Shah, though an absolute monarch, has none of the experience, knowledge or training necessary to improve his country ; the Baron will com mand all these. Persia stands to-day before the world, a naturally rich country, impoverished by bad government. The American and British missions have been and still are giving it churches and schools ; the Persian Company of de Reuter can give it railroads, telegraphs, and a system of immigration. The result erelong may be, Chris tianity, prosperity, and a great, free, intelligent and happy nation. . 1 1. A Fire Plug Wanted. .' Mr. Editor We beg through you to call the at tention of the Fire l'epartment or whoever else in authority whose business it may be to the fact that for nearly the whole length of Emma street, there is no fire plug. Suppose the Koyal School, for instance, which is public property, were to catch fire, there is absolutely no water at hand with which to extinguish it. A fire plug placed somewhere between the German Club and the corner of School street, would supply th defi.ifniy. Ki.ia Strftt. The t;tERAL characteristic of the Gaz'tt and the tone of some of ir editorials, indicate that it is made up jrincirally cf matters furnished by th.? Ministers, and that it is. t all intents and purposes, the 'iovcrniueut frazr:. As, for in stance, from thi Fon iga Pepartmcn:, all 44 official correspondence," which the Minister is tur,J to give to that paper; from the Interior Department, ill 4by authority" notices, and the head of that Department having formerly been in edito rial harness mire or less each week of sarcastic editorial paragraphs; and from the Finance De partment, notices referring to the business of that Department. At the next H-ssion of the Legislature we shall strongly call attention to the delusion of the leas ing of the Government Printing Offiee. When the present Ministry took office, it was said that they were 44 willing to trust to an independent press to criticise their official acts." Perhajs the Minister of the Interior may claim the excuse cf the law, whie-i still makes him rej onsihlc for the government press. (orjUMNc, tiletn-.iring and scandalizing are n a large degree the result of idleness ; some of that work which a distinguished personage is said to provide for those who have no business of their own, or who prefer what he offers to their legi timate emplojment. I'nf jrtunately 44 times are dull " in Hawiii nei. The vulgar, conceited and untruthful letters or reports writtea at Honolulu, and occasionally at Lahaina, for jublication in Jian Francisco, show that the country is fully furnished with servants of the enterprising master above referred to, and we can only htpe, for the credit of the publishers and vendors of reading matter in Honolulu, that they will not tot the future lend their columns, or otherwise r.id in giving wider circulation to that which is untrue, and if true, is only mis chievous in its influence. What reasonable excuse can be offered for post ing in conspicuous places, or republishing in a paper pretendiDg to respectability, and professing a wish to promote the best interests of our little community, that which is only calculated to ex cite suspicion, anger and ill-will, without a. possi bility of doing any good? Sea island Cottox We desire to call the at tention of all who take an interest in developing the 'resources of the country, to the excellent letter on the cultivation of Sea Island Cotton from the jen of Mr. H. Holstein, on the fourth page of to-day's paper. Mr. II. is a man of ed ucation, but he is withal an eminently practical man, and the relation given of his experience and success in the cultivation of cotton, in the un promising region on Maui where he is now located, ought to prove of great value and an en couragement to cotton growers. Mr. II. has, in the line of agriculture, been a no small benefactor of these Islands. He may very properly be termed the pioneer and original promoter of the culture of rice here, which has now assumed such important proportions ; for he it was who first demonstrated in Nuuanu Valley that it could be successfully and profitably cultivated. Great Earthquake in Chile. 13y the arrival on Wednesday last of the clipper ship Premier, Capt. Merrihew, C5 days from Valpa raiso en route for Baker's Island to load guano, we have received a copy of the Valparaiso Mail of July 20th, in which we find a detailed account of a severe earthquake at that place, and throughout Chile, on the morning of July 7th. The Mail declares it to have been as severe a shock as any that had occurred within the memory of the oldest inhabitant. While a great deal of damage was done to property in Val paraiso, Tarioosly estimated at from 30,000 to 160,000, the loss of life was wonderfully small. Two women died from the effects of fright, and two were reported killed from falling walls, but, says the Mail, " The list of casualties from falls down stairs, and jumping through windows would, if we were to detail them all, fill a column of our paper." The ehocks continued, with several hours interval, from the 7th until the morning of the 8th, when they finally ceased. "The first subterranean movement appears to have come from the other side of the Andes, because at the commencement of the shock, at which mo ment it was undoubtedly the heaviest, a rosetta of the roof of the can liorja hospital fell, just as if it had been severed with a knife, towards the west ; a pendulum clock also fell in the same direction, and swinging lamps were also observed to move towards that point. " For these reasons many persons believe that the earthquake had its origin in some volcanic commo tion in the Cordillera, as happened in 1822 and 183-1, when an eruption of the San Jose mountain oc curred. This opinion is also confirmed by the fact that previous to the earthquake, and also during the shock, reflections of flashes of light were seen on the tops of the Andes lying to the southeast of the city. "After the first few seconds were over the shock changed from an undulatory to a vertical one. " The duration of the shock, according to observ ations made by several persons, was from 71 to 74 seconds, which is a greater duration than that of any earthquake that has taken place within the memory of any living inhabitant. "As may be readily imagined, great alarm pre vailed among the inhabitants, and many families sought safety in the Alameda, the Plaza de Armas, and other squares. The greater part of the inhab itants staid up all night, full of the greatest anxiety and expecting momentarily some terrible catastrophe to take place." Information from Madrid by telegraph has ju.t been received in diplomatic circles that the Cortes, by a large majority, resolved not to confer further political privileges on Cuba until the insurgents shall have laid down their arms.
