R. Lishman, Road Supervisor. Road Supervisor's Office, Honolulu, Nov 23, 1877. Proposed Amendment To Article 61 of the Constitution granted on the 20th day of August, A. D. 1864, in accordance with Article 80 of said Constitution. That Article 61 be, and the same is hereby amended so as to read as follows : Article 61. No person shall be eligible for a Representa tive of the people who is Insane or an idiot; nor unless he be a male subject of the Kingdom, who shall have arrived at the full age of twenty-one years, who shall know how to read and write, who shall understand accounts, aud shall have been domiciled in the Kingdom for at least three years immediately preceding his election, and who shall own Real Estate or Personal Property within the Kingdom of a clear value, over and above all incumbrances of at least five hundred dollars. Approved this .... day of A. D. 1876. The bark Jlarama, about wbicb some anxistj ' Las been foil, is reported at Nawiliwili, Kauai, all rigbt. Another Fire. Shortly after 12 o'clock last Thursday uigbt, fire was discovered in the Gie-itoif store of Afong & Acbuck. on Nuuunu etreet. 2d door Irotn King fctreet. The store was tilled with a large and valuable assortment f good, ull of which, not burned are ruined by the t-uiuke und steam. The origin ot tbe fire yet remains a mysUry, although a box of matches under tbe counter may have had something to do with it. Tbe firemen who first en tered tbe building, however, tet-tify that the fire was burning by tbe door, and appeared to be coming up from the cellar, no Dre in tbe office, or any other part of tbe istore. ' There was a quantity of excelsior, leaf capers, and Chinese provisions stored in the cellar under tbe office. Mr. Afong states that tbe clerks have standing instructions to look over tbe building carefully before locking up for tb! uigbt ; and they all declare that this duty was faithfully performed one of them carry ing a lantern in bis band, probably to enable biiu to see any incipient fire more distinctly. Soon after tbe conflagration of tbe 18th tilt., au insur ance was effected on the goods by Mr. Afong to tbe amount of $20,000, with au additional amount afterwards of $5,000 for six months, and $5,000 for one year, making a total of $30,000. Tbe building belongs to tbe estate of tbe late Jas. Robinson, and is considerably damaged in the part occupied by tbe above firm. We under bland that an insurance of $8,000 was effected upon the building about two weeks ago, which will probably cover the loss to tbe estate. In view of this double warning, we need not reiterate tbe necessity of increased care and watcblulHess on tbe part of every one to prevent an even more distructive fire than any we have yet bad. As a commendation to tbe police for tbe vigilant performance of their duties, we think it proper that the name of tbe officer who gave tbe alarm should be mentioned. It was Kaainiu. No. 34. Proposed Amendment To Article 20 of tbe Constitution, granted on the 20lh day of August, A. D. 1861, in accordance with Article 80 of said Constitution. That Article 20, be and the same is hereby amended by striking out the words "of a Court of Record," immediately preceding the words " shall ever be a member of the Legis lative Assembly," so that the Article as amended shall read as follows : Article 20. The Supreme Power ol the Kingdom, in its exercise is divided into the Executive, Legislative, and Judi cial, these shall always be preserved distinct, and no judge shall ever be a member of the Legislative Assembly.

Wueee Next ? Old members of the Honolulu Fire Department have a tradition perhaps a super stition to the effect that fires in this city, when tbey do occur, which is but seldom, thank Providence, go in threes. We bare had two pretty serious ones. Where next? Good Templabs' Beketit.

Faust Tue Hawaiian Gazette. As previously announc ed, the Gazette has passed into the hands of T. Craw ford MacDowell. Esq. , who makes his editorial salu tatory in this week's number. . We welcome him to the fraternity, and anticipate nothing but pleasant interchanges of editorial courtesies. Ax Entertainment by the Tensacola's Excel sior Minstrel and Variety Troupe will be given at the Theatre on Thursday evening next, Jan. 10. We hare room to give the name of but one piece, which is : PhillippjohonesByvoubimblebra gembimblebeevonanglesteen by T. Buttley. Antipathies of Race. We regret to have to note the increasing prejudice entertained by the Hawaiians especially the rising generation against the Chinese. This was aparticularly dis played at the fire of Thursday night, when China men were actually dragged from their houses by native " hoodlums" and forced to go on the brakes of the Engines. Tue Post Office. The bi-monthly steam service, however advantageous for the public, has added con siderably to the work of the Post Master General, and it seems only fair that this increase of bis duties should bring some corresponding addition to bia a&I ary. For so arduous and important a position, the present salary of the Post Master General is hardly in keeping with the daily increasing responsibility and actual work of tbe appointment.

Another year has quietly and rapidly glided away, and ere we are aware of it, the season for an other annual meeting has returned. The affairs of the Home have been conducted much as in former years, ine keeper, -Mr. uunscomne, reports that during tbe year, 118 belonging to tbe sea-faring community have been entertained in tbe Home, including, 15 captains, 12 officers, 121 seamen. This report does not include tbe transient board ers and strangers from California. The usefulness and convenience of tbe Home, to a certain class of travelers, is as important as tbe Hawaiian Hotel is to another class. So far as the management of tbe establishment is concerned, there has been no complaint, but much which is worthy of commen dation. Some repairs have been made, but not much ex- ceediug tbe amount of funds in tho bands of our Treasurer. The Y. M. C. A. has been sustained with com mendable praise. The Reading Room has become more and more a place of resort for sea men, strangers, und residents; scarcely any part of tbe day or evening when visitors may not be seen quietly perusing the newspapers and maguz'r nes, or writing to their friends in otber lands. No one carefully reviewing tbe usefulness of the Home during the year now closing, or during tho 23 or 24 years of its existence, but must acknowl edge that it is among the benevolent enterprises of Ionolulu which have proved a success.

Wo return our hearty thank to a Urotlier Ed itor on the New Zealand rrcsx for bowc nico Maori books forwarded by last mail. They are destined for the instruction of the Maoris in tho English language. The Maori tittle of one of these books is: Ik Akoranya i tc tin liigariti mo te kura Maori, or, lP8ons in the Englioh Language for the Maori Schools." Puhlihhed at Wellington by authority " hy (icoigo Dido bury, Government Printer. Another book lift the same title, and its author was the late vener able Archdeacon William, the great Maori scholar and grammarian. There ore, also, two very nicely bound in green and red and gold let tered little volumes of a work entitled: Ko tc a nui aui, hit aho rnaana hi tc no Inyirihi: htifuka puka u ialaako tenet tna tc tatnariki tnaori e tna tau aua ki te Korero i tc jiukajnika Maori, a e hahtr aua ano kia rnohio ki tc rco irtgirihi, or, Willie'a First English Book, written for youn Maoris who can read their own Maori tongue, and who wish to learn the English language," by the same publisher. Tbe publication of such books for the teaching of English to tho Maori youth, is Tcrj creditable to the New Zealand gov ernment, and those before us are very good peci inens of the lypogrnrher'ii ni t in the government rdinting-officc ol the cujilal of New Zealand.

D' We beo to call the attention of our readers to the advertisement in to-daj's issue of the celebrated Macneale & Urban Fire and Burglar Proof Safea, whose superiority over all others in use at the present day, is claimed to be established. Mr, C. O. Berger, the special agent of the San Francisco agency, arrived by the steamer St. raul," and brought with him a few samples of these safes, with the intention 01 . cstaouanmg an agency nere. Hawaiian jocrxalism. ine nrst number or a new paper in the Hawaiian language, entitled " Eo Hawaii Tae Aina " has been published. It starts with a generous advertising support, and is filled with interesting matter, making altogether a neat appearance. Mr. J. M. Kawainui, late of the A'uo koa has the responsibility and control of its publica tion. 'Llie editorial charge of the Kuokoa, native newspaper, has been assumed by the Rev. II. II. Par ker, under whose management its usefulness and in terest to its patrons cannot but be increased. Almost a Serious Accident. An accidental dis charge of a pistol at the Cammercial Hotel, yester day, came rery near resulting fatally. The weapon was left there to be raffled for, and was being exam ined by a party standing by, when, by someraeans it was discharged, the ball passing between the fingers of the party holding it, and through the ear of an other man standing near by, giving him a close shave, certainly. Any man, who passes a danger ous weapon like a pistol out of his bands for the pur pose above indicated, and leaves a charge in it does a great wrong, for he may thereby place a human life in jeopardy. We would call attention to tbe advertisement of the Pacific Iron Works of San Francisco, which are offering to manufacture all kinds of sugar machine ry on very favorable terms. The nearness of San Francisco and consequent low freight and the fact that there are no duties upon American Machinery are tending to convince come of our merchants and planters that they can be aa well or better supplied from them than from Europe, Q. W. Fogg, Esq., the superintendent of the Pacific Works, who has been here for the lat three months. Informs ns that he found at Makawao some of the sugar machinery manufactured bjr their firm which baa been in constant use for fifr teen years. Facts speak for themselvf s. Our youthful Hawaiian traveler, Mr. F. W, Damon, entertains the readers of the Friend, in that journal's monthly issue for January, with an interesting account of bid second excursion iu Khioeland, including his visit to Bonn and Xeuwied, where he met with two Honolulu boys, now being educated in the college of Neuwied, and, as may well be Imagined, tho meeting of tbotte children of Hawaii nei in a strange land wus mutually pleas urable. The writer continues the relation of his first tour down the Rhine, aud gives an enthiibiastic description of the " Luther Monument at Worms," where the great reformer is seen in Ctiiug compan ionship with Woldus, WickliflT. llubg and Savonar ola. Mayence, with its souvenirs of ihe great founder of our typographic art, Gutenberg, and its old Roman traditions of Drusus' death, affords the youthful traveler occasion to meditate upon the Sight of time since the " Roman Sentinels paced back and forth," on tbe sutne soil whereon be trod. From Mayence to Cologne, tho writer points out to bis readers, in a really beautiful style which improves as he enlarges his field of travel, the charms of the lordly German river, and the legendary scenes which form it especial attrac tions, as be glides pact " Fair Binges on tbe Rhine," and the " Mouse Tower" of Bishop Hatto; tbe Un dine Larlei's rock; Cobleutz and Ebrenbreitteln, and chivalric Rolandseck. Bonn, with its memo ries of Betboven. inspire the youtLful traveler with valuable reflections, and perhaps ma attract him to its classic balls. The great modern Bard of the Rhine, the immortal Karl Timrock, to whom Germany is indebted for tbe beautiful Rheimagtn. or poetic legends of tbe Rhine, is still, we think a Professor of the renowned University, and a course of bis lectures on German poetry would be invaluable to a student of the modern tongue of Teutonia. Tbe young traveler's inter esting account brings us down to bis ariival at Cologne. POLTXESIAS IXMIOKAKTS Ix Fiji, Th following paragraph refers to tbe matter of time expired laborers at tbe Fijis : Tenders Lave teen opened at the Immigration-cfCce for the supply of trad daring 1878 to time expired laborers returning to Fiji. About CoO laborers are to be sent out of tbe conntrj next year, and it is to be hoped that tbe supply will exceed that number. The Bobtail .Yag is under agreement to tbe Government to make three trips next year, aud as 200 return labour from Fiji are guaranteed her every trip, otber vessels will not have muoh chance of procuring any. It, will bow ever (the. fSji jirgu. remarks.) be ranch more satis factory to all parties to bring full loals of Polyn ilan immigrants Into tbe colony.'1 A good deul has been written in the EngliaU journals of Honolulu for und against Ihe Maoris of New Zealand, and the Pacihc Commehcui, Ai VEKTisEit bus advocated the introduction Into these Island of married couples with their fami lies of the Maori race. In the New Zealand par liament, recently, the Hon. Mr. Sheeban, Nulivn Minister of State, made an official statement oil the condition of the Maori peopln of lho Inlands, which affords the fulletl aud inof-l reliable infor mation on this subject. We publish some extracts from the Hon. Native Minister's Report, which prove how unfounded are all tho landers that have been published here against the Maoris of New Zealand : "The Native population in tho North Inland was 23.G3!) males, and 19.7C9 females diMi United in the land to the North of Auckland and tin the East Coast. There was absolutely no chance ol war in these places. The only poxxlblu placn where war could at ine was In tlm King country, where, there were in all only a native population of 5.255 ; of whom only 2,66(1 were males. Against these were 25.000 fiiendly natives, and a European population of 40.000 men. Tho native population was also steadily decreasing, and all cvidenco the Government could collect pointed out that there witfl no longer reason to fear it native, war. In the King country, tho natives were becoming reconciled to their position, and anxious to cul tivate friendly relations. He did not think even in the King country that 1111 nruied force could now be raised againxt the European. It was desirable this should be known as tho Publio Works scheme wus not yet finished, and much more money would have to be borrowed yet, In order to complete it satisfactorily therefore, that there was no possibility of further native disturb ances. If puWlic works were extended to native districts, all chances of rebellion would disappear. The works already made were vuluublo as having satisfied the natives, and aUo having opened up the country in 11 strategical point of view J m that the whole country could now bo eunily lrav ersed. Justice in native districts wus now ad ministered partly ly native onieiais. 111 one dis trict some time ago lie found every man receiving Government pay. There was a Urge field open for reduction in this direction ; but the syMein of medical comforts and assistance might fairly be continued. It wus only extending to native districts a system In force amongst Europeans in large cities. As to education, Maoris vrre won derlully quick in learning. Up 1819 more Maoris could read, wiito, und work sums than Europeans, but ull was taught them in Maori, and therefore in ull tholr dealings they were thrown in the hands ol a special class, from which cause hare grown up uouio of the most objectionable features of tho Native Department. He bore testimony to Sir 1). McLean's ell'orls to promote education iu English. This yeur be (Mr. Sheehan) proposed to Fpend 11,600 only 011 na tive schools, or 1.000 less than last yeur, and with this fifty village schools would be supported, and others assisted. He would like, if possible, to increase this sum, so as to have more schools, and secure what was more desirable a first class lot of teachers. With regard to another social question, the Gov ernment felt it their duty to assist tho efforts the natives were now making to suppress Intemper ance. The best way of doing this would be to allow the natives to tegulatu their own districts in this respect, and in this way he believed they would in time be able to shako off habits of ex cess. Already a decrease wus visible, owing partly to a reduction in the Government expendi ture amongst them, but also largely to the ex tension of Good Templary. Government tLou!d in every way assist iu this movement." The Hon. Native Minister concluded his slate rnent in tho New Zealand parliament with the words: "He looked hopefully forward to th time when both races would be one people.'' (Great applause.) The following is u precise of lliu figures by Mr, Sheehan in bis statement : Total number of Maori population in North Islamf. 43.408 : South Island, 2. 608. The nniouuls spent during ten years, ending the 30th June, 1871 in Htirpressiiig the native disturbances was From the revenue, 781.405 6s d; loan, 2.375 HHi 13 31; total. .', 157,231. the amount spent on roads In the North Islands to tbe 30th of Juno lust was From De fence Loan, 10,750; from Immigration und Pub- Works Loans, 471,1 69; und dm loir tlio seven years ending the 30tb of June last, JLVJ.'J7 I'Jh Id was spent on native schools. Tho totul number of schools, 50, and other schools. 11, to bu main tained this year. Last year 15.32 bad been spent on schools and buildings; for tho prewnt yeur 11,571 was proposed to be expended. 35, 000 more was required to meet engugetuunts and provide schools where none were now. Lund pur chases in tho North Island were urgotiultd for Freehold, 4.613,329 acres; leasehold, 1.540,081 acres. Of tbis only 1.067.102 ucres of freehold were completed, und nonoM.f the leasehold. On the completed transactions 2H.052 had been ex pended, 148,921 on the incomplete tiansactioiis and 102,074 in general expenses. The balance expended on the 1st of July last, was 168.051. In Auckland, of the 35.000 iipportlo:ied to that district, only 30,894 remained unexpended, und 52.400 was required for the current year. In Taranaki, Wellington and Hawke's Bay, however, tbe available balance were ii excess of the sums required this year, being as follows: Wellington: Unexpended, 69.520; required, 21.425. Hawke's Bay: Unexpended: 40.226; required, 7.725. Taranaki: Unexpended, 28,230; required, 10,000. Thus, it appears that the Maori race of New Zealand bas decreased even more rapidly than lie Hawaiian, being now only 46,000 souls, where as the population of the group was supposed to exceed half a million when Captain Cook dis covcred'tbose Islands. Bettek than HiNUixu -There is a story wLJcb will presently go the rounds of the press of tbe the very latest example of the kindly nature of the Queen of England. It is said that on the Sun day before the Tuesday originally fixed fur the ex ecution of the Stauntons, for the Penge murder, tbe mother of the two male criminals traveled alone to Balmoral, in Scotland, where the Queen was staying, In order to fling herself at the Queen's feet and beseech her clemency. An ived at Balla t.r, the poor woman could get no conveyance, but the mail carrier, on learning tho nature of her for lorn and romantic tnisrion, sut on Ihe leather bars and took her to the castle. Here, after aoino dlfH culty. she got an interview with Sir Thomas Bid dulpb, who Informed the Queen of the citcum stance. Without form or ceremony of any kind. Iho Queen went straight to tbe room where Mrs Statin ton was seated, and listened with deep sympathy to tbe petitioner's prayer. Tbe Queen promised to do what she could, but said she wus entirely iu tbe bands of her responsible Minister. The painful interview at an end, the Queen, with motherly con sideration, ordering a carriage to be provided f r tbe poor petitioner, und sho was conveyed com fortably to tbe railway depot on ber way borne. Strange to say, the very letter-bags In tbe mail cart on wbicb tbe poor woman bad traveled from Ballater to Balmoral contained, among other des patches, the Home Secretary's recommendation f tbe reprieve of tbe condemned. Tbe Queen, en dorsing It at onco. sent off a mounted uiessenirer after Mrs. Staunton to acquaint bor of the good tidings. U tbe DocTo T18DALE gives special attention treatment of the Eye and Ear.
