LTho only come, dictnted by wisdom fiiumnnily, and patiiotism, is ,td Incccpt the fact and adopt prompt n'n'd encigclie measures for the sup- presHion and ultimate extermination of the cil. Wc aicnot insensible to tlic dilliculties in tho way of those who have the direction of the sani tary nffairs of tho nation, nor aro wc inclined to occupy our timo in raking up loathsome dctnils of a disagieeablc subject or to fill our space with querulous cavillings about mismanagement j but aic actuated by a sincere desiro to assist tho authorities in stemming the torrent of destruction and saving the race. The suggestions that we have to offer concerning leprosy and the duty of the Government in connec tion therewith are the result of much 'thought, nnd nic based on a careful study of all the facts, within our icacli, bearing on the subject. '" The total number of lepcis now in this Kingdom, according to the best nvajialjlc data, is not less than fifteen hundred, or between thiee and (bur per cent, of the entire native popu lation. Of this number, only about six hundred nnd fifty, or considera bly less than one half, arc now " at the leper settlement on Molokni. The balance, with tho exception of between sixty and seventy in the branch Hospital at Knkanko, are scattered throughout tho country and can bo found in every district on every island in the group. How many of the lepers now nt large are icsiding in this district, cannot, of course, be known with absolute cer tainty; bnt the number in and around Honolulu, at the present time, can hardly bo less than two bundled, and may be considerably moro. This state of tilings naturally causes a feeling of uneasiness nnd dissatisfaction in the community. This feeling is evidently on the in crease, and is likely nt no distant .day to culminate, in such a popular dcroajid for the arrest and segrega tion of lepers as would be impossi ble to resist. Under thcc ydrcumstnnccs the duty of the Uoardof Health is plain. Tlic isolation of all poisons aillictcd with this disease has been for years, andjtj uoA' the, avowed policy of 'the Government.' The obligations of law and of humanity alike demand that this policy be carried oit fully, faithfully,' and impartially. At tlic same time all unnecessary harshness a should bo avoided, and every possi "blo consideration shown for the feelings, the comfort, and the in terests of those who ,aic so unfortu nate as to come within tlic operation of tlic law. The measures which, in our opinion, ought to be adopted wc Bhall indicate in our next issue. CORRESPONDENCE. Correspondence Is solicited on tho lop. io of the day, or what may become so.

I am glad to say there is no probabil ityofVnii order ceer being issued, to hunt us down nt any or all times', as elsewhere exists, so wo can pursuo our nvocntion of spreading disease unhindered.

A -warning was servdd on all saloon keepers and sellers of intoxicating liquor not to sell or give any of tho same to a young man who lately as our readers arc aware attempted suicide under the inlluucc of liquor. 1 Oun correspondent, J.
