In resuming (ho subject of yester day's leading article, wo suggest the adoption of tho following measures, for the suppression of leprosy and for tho benefit of the unfortunate lepers : Virst, Tho prompt removal to Molokai of a considerable number f of confirmed and hopeless cases now confined in the branch hospital at Kakaako. Thcso people arc not faiulablo subjects for tho latter insti tution, and should not bo allowed to cumber the wards, while hutulicds of lepers arc at large outside, many of whom if placed in the hospital, might bo favorable cases for ticat ment. Second, Tho enlargement of tho , accommodations within the present hospital enclosure, by the creation of additional buildings, so that at least two hundred paticnto could bo comfortably accommodated therein. Wc say tho present hospital en closure, assuming Hint it must re main where it now is. Third, The arrest and scgrega- . tion, as fast as prudenco and human ity will allow, of all the lepers now at large : tho advanced cases to be sent direct to Molokai, and those in the incipient stages or concerning whom thcic is any doubt, to be de tained in the branch hospital for ob scivation and treatment. "Were the lepers now at large once collected nnd disposed of, with tolerable "thoroughness, and the matter systematically followed up, the bianch hospital witli accommoda tions for two hundred patients is all that would be requited for those in' what may be called the stage of pi o batlon, at any one time. Fouitli, The improvement of the accommodations and administration! sit Kalawao, so that the settlement should, as far as possible, be made to appear to the native mind as a, place of i of age and comfoit, rather than one of exile and death. For this purpobc it is necessary that there should be a much lnigcr i amount' of direct personal supcr- virion from some competent head, than is possible under tho picscnt, arrangement. Systematic uicriica- .Uion and lcmcdial measures of various Jtiurts should bo freely fur-1 '"nishcd(to all who aic willing, or who can be induced, to accept them. ( Aside from any trcatnicht diiccledi to tho cure or amelioration' of lep iiosy, it is evident that such an ag- m grogation of diseased humanity rc- " quhea the constant picscncc of an intelligent and well-organized medi cal service, for the relief of their rations incidental ailmehts. Un questionably tho best, and in fact the only way of satisfying these re quirements is by tho appointment of a lesidcnt medical superinten dent, with ample powers and libcial pay, to reside constantly at tho set tlement. The presence and super vision of such an ofllcial, ciijoytug the confidence of tho Government on the one hand and the good will of the patients on the other, would bcuurc tho adoption of many Im provements nnd reforms in matteis of detail not strictly medical. Our limited space will not admit of our going more into detail, at piescnt.. Wo feel sure that the fore going ideas arc sound, ami that they cannot fail to secure the approval of all persons who will give the subject their seiioim and candid considera tion. , 'J k k - I ' t v. FinsT Steps. ' Yesterday afternoon quite a crowd had assembled in fiont of th6 Police Station. Going in to inquiic the reason wo found tho police lmd v brought in about l.'i Jcpeis, -who VPio being examined, by DlS. Mc- Kibbin, Trousseau and Fitch, Every one seemed to us as repulsive as tho woi sC ensca nt Kakaako. 'Vlie polico were thou out engaged in biiuging moic. It is creditable (hat notion has al last bcou taken by the Board of Health, bill wc think that the number they have' obtained so far is one-tenth pait of those still at large. Now that they have got these lepers, it would be icll to re con sider the present system, and begin a fresh lecord of sensible and Vigor ous administiation with tho new y.cni' ' - I II II II" 'M FORT STREET SOCIAL. On Thursday night a very pleas ant cnteitaininent was given in the pallors of Fort Street Church. A melange of music nnd elocution preceded a conversazione with coffee. The proceedings were opened by a reading, Dora, by Mr. Cruzan which was full of tender pathos. Then the new piano was tiled by Miss Austin, who played a Sonata, by Carl Kcinccko of the audience. Mrs. Adams then cnclinin cd the attention of all by her chai m Ing reading of the thrilling poem of "St. Michael's Saved," which de tails the account of a brave deed by a slave. Mrs. Ilanford next sat clon to the piano and sang "The Village Blacksmith's Bride,'' n tune ful and tender lyric. Mrs. W. Hopper was next Intiodiiccd to the audience. Mis. Hopper is new to Honolulu, but her recitation of " Christmas Night at tho Quarters," a descrip tive piece of negro charactciistics nt Clnistmns, established her as n favoiitc. The applause was long and loud and the memory of the old fiddler Josio will last for a long time. Mrs. W. Peterson then play ed a Polacca which bet many feet to tapping, mid wishing to be moving. Mis Prcscott our talented elocution ist then rend tho "Buiial of Moses." This Jwas the finest piece of elocu tion of.thc evening. Then followed a violin and piano duct by Mrs. Hnnford and Prof. Ynindlc', which was an exquisite gem tq the heaicrs. The way in which the double notes' were pioduecd was particularly tine as except by ocular demonstration, it was impossible to tell whether two violins or one wcrci being played. After this came tho coffee and cakes and tho general talk which usually ensues. The attendance was largo and the decorations were beautiful in their simplicity. Mrs. W. W. Hall pre sided assisted by tho other ladies of the Benevolent Society. EMMA SQUARE CONCERT. The Band will give a concert nt Emma Square, this afternoon at 1 :30 o'clock.
