J mid ami Loo as lliu King's Hpccinl Comtnissioiiprs, and M. Dillon and tlio Admiral, tlio latter staled that liu did not chnrgo tlio Hawaiian (Jov ornmuiit with any violation of ihu Treaty of 181(i, btit merely with placing a wroni; inlpiprutnlion Upon tlio fith Article, relat inf to tlio duty to lie levied upon brandy and other spirituous liquors of I'reiicli origin. That Article read as follows: "French merchandise, or goods recog nized as coining from the French domini ons, shall noLbo prohibited, norshall they bo subject to nn import duty higher than fivo percent, ml tuhrem. Wines, brandies, and other spirituous liquor are, however, excepted from this stipulation, and shall be liable to such reasonable duty as (ho Hawaiian Government may think lit to lay uiion them, provided always that tho amount of duty shall not bo so high us absolutely to prohibit tho importation of the said articles." lty a Joint lleeolulion of tho Legisla ture, passed on tho !!d of April, 1810, "To carry into oiled tho (Jth Article of tho Treaties concluded lit Honolulu, between tho Government of tho Hawaiian Tslands find tho.Govornmonts orKrancoand Great JJritniu, With .March, 1811), in relation to brandies, wines and other spirituous liquors," an ml quantum duty was imposed upon brandy, rum, gin, whiskey, arrack and all other distilled spirits, not exceed ing Tm per cent, of alcohol, of live dollars per gallon. This, tho French Consul had declined, and tried to maintain by speci ous arguments, amounted to a prohibition. That tlio charge was totally unfounded, ' will appear from a few ligures as to tho consumption of thu article in question, taken from the records of tho Custom House. Tho quantity of spirituous liquors on which duty was paid during tlio year 1817, was :i,-7() gallons; in 18-18, :J,:U2 gallons; from January to August, 181!), lifiSZl gallons. Hut tho King and Govern ment in 1810 ovidontly contemplated '' n good timo coming" whon absolute pro hibition would bo possible, as will bo heon by tho following, passed in that year, and subsequently to tho passngo of tho resolu tion nbovo roferred to, fixing tho duty on brandy, &c: "So soon as tho modification of subsist ing treaties will permit, the Minister of Finance shall recommend to His Majesty in L'rivy Council, tho measnros which, in his estimation, may seem best calculated to repress and ejloctually provont tho im portation of spirituous and intoxicating drinks of every description, either by pro hibitory duties or by declaring them con traband of trade, and liable to confiscation; which recommendation, being adopted by His Majesty in l'rivy Consul, and publicly announced by proclamation, signed by His Majesty and attested by tho Minister of Financo, shall, from tlio dato to bo fixod in said proclamation, lmvo tho bind ing forco and ollicacy of a law. "Wheie iipon, and not sooner, tho Minister of tho -Interior shnll, by his proclamation, dis continue, prospectively, the issuing of licenses for tho wholesale- and retail vend ing thereof," ice. JSo that, so long ngo as 1810, tho Haw aiian" ICine; nnd Legislature parsed n ' " Maine Liquor Law " prospective, to bo suro. At tho conferonco, August 28, 1819, tho Admiral proposed to the Commissioners to roduco thu duty to some per centago to bo ngrood on, namingi as a fair duty, 80 per cent. Tho Commissioners oll'erod to rofor tho question of duty on brandy to Franco, in concert with n bpocinl Commis sioner to bo sont thithor by tho King, with soino neutral power as umpire, in case of disagreement, lint tho Admiral would not consent to tho idea of any uin piro -Franco alono must decide. Ho added, that ho would not discuss any of tho othor demands, unless tho question of tho duty on brandy was first sottled. On tlio 29th, another and final attempt was mudo to como to some arrangement, by a llesolution in l'rivy Consul submit ting tho following propositions to tho Ad miral, which were immediately forwarded to him on board his ship: First That all ponding difficulties bo roferred to tho decision of tho Govern ment of Franco in concert with tho King's Special Plenipotentiary, nnd, in caso of uon-agreoment upon any point, to tho Until award of any friendly l'ower, to bo named by Franco herself, tho Hawaiian Govornmont pledging tho King's faith and Iho national revenues, and, if required, tho further gunrantoo of vomn friondlyj powor to ubido by nnd carry out all tho provisions of such decision and award. Socondly That if tho Admiral ngroo to this, n oontrnd to tho nbovo olloot bo drawn up and signed by him and tho King's Commissioners. Thirdly That having miulo theso pro posals, tho King of tho Hawaiian Islands solemnly declare that no has done all in his power and all that uudor the law of nations and oxisling engagements with Franco, can bo justly required of him ns necessary to satisfy tho honor of Frauco ' nnd o( tho Admiral, nnd that nfter this oilor. securing and guaranteeing the most nmplo reparation upon all points, as .Fj-ancohursolf, or tho umpire of her own '"natrmay pronounco just, tho King bo liovos that nil just cause for war or oven ' reprisals, under tho law of nations, is on- tiroly removed. (Signed) Kamuiiaueiu i..s. By tho King nnd Promior. It. O. Wyi.uk, Minister For. ltd. On tho ilOlli tho Admiral acknowlodgod tho receipt of tho above, " by which," ho wrote, "aro torminatod tho conforonces ut vwhioh tho usoloss Conmiiasionora uomi natod by tho King Kiunehamoha III onmo to aist," and added, " it only remains to mo to givo nn account to tho Govornmont of tho French llopublio of my measures, nnd of tho obstinacy of your Govern ment." And on tho sntno day ho posted his second Proclamation on tho streets of Honolulu. Against this tho Kiug form ally protected, Sept. !M, as a llagrant outrage on his sovereign rights, in pro tending to cnucol tho Treaty of 18 Ui ami to revive tho convention of Laplace, which last nover was u Treaty, because Frauco novor vatilled it: To the Inhaiutants or Honolulu: Tho conferences hold on board tho i7u teuilt with tho view of arranging in an iiuiici.blo manner, tho differences botweou Franco and tho Hawaiian Islands, luivmg resulted inn resolution of tho King m Couucil which tho roprosentnlives oHlio French ltepublio luivo deemed it then duty to reject. In cousequonco of tho system of pro crastinations ndoptod by tho lulvisors of King Kiunohmnohu, us ultio of their por Mhtunco in interpreting, uufuirly, tho Treaty of tho 20th Murch, 1810, tho uudor- signrd .Hear Admiral, Commander-in-Chief of the naval forces of Franco in the Paci fic, has notified to the Hawaiian Govern ment, oilicinlly, tho expiration of tho snid Treaty from the piescnt dato. Franco and tho Hawaiian Islands aro respectively iilaced under tho binding stipulations of tho Treaty contracted on tho 17th July, L8.'19, between Captain Laphico and King Kainelmmelia 111. Considering that, in consequence of tho interpretation erroneously attached to tlio Trroty of tho 20th March, 181C, tho Haw niian Government continues to impose upon French commerce nnd upon French citizens burthens nnd disabilities which have been vainly protested against, tho undersigned will confine himself for tho iirosent to the disarming tho fort of Hono lulu nnd to the seizing of tho schooner tho Kmnehttmtha, giving up the otlior vessels provisionally soquestrod, to their respective owners, whom it would bo harsh to render responsible for tho errors of tho King's ndvisers. The undersigned fuithermoro holds tho Hawaiian Govornmont ns responsible for nil vexations, nets of injustico or proju dico that may ho indicted on French citi zens or on their property, nnd informs all French residents who may wish to seek an asylum on board tho steam corvette tho (afmt( or tho frigate l'ounnitunte, that they will bo received nnd conveyed ns they may prefer to Tahiti or to the north western coast of America. Llooahant uf. Thomei.is, Hour-Admiral. On board tho frigate of tho French He public, tho l'oamtitantt, 30th August, 181!). This was tho Inst gun from tho Admiral. There was nothing moro to bo dono in the way of disarmament of the Fort, nnd consequently no moro glory to bo won, so tho troops, " lea braves I'oursuicnntes " were ro-oinbnrked. On tho 4th of Septem ber tho King's yacht, tho JCnmehameha, sailed away under tho French Hog for Tahiti, and was nover moro seen in Haw aiian waters. "Wo heard of her, in after years, either ns employed between tho islands of the Society group or laid up in tho harbor of Papeete. In 1858. after tho ratification of tho now French Treaty, King Kamohnmohn IV. recoivod through M. l'errin, tho French Commissioner, a present of a silver dinner bervico from tho French Govornmont; which was tho only protonso of a reparation over mado for tho boizuro and confiscation of Knuikcaouli's yacht. On tho (5th of Soptcmber tho GamcniU sailed for France, vin Valparaiso; and on tho snnio day tho J'uuriuirnnte for San Francisco. M. Dillon and family were passengers by tho latter, en routo for Franco. It is safo to say that not a soul heio regielted tho departure of tho French Consul, not even among tho fow Fronch residents. His forte was to get into hot water with every person with whom ho enmo in contact. I have generally rofrained from com ment upon ovonts as recorded in theso sketches, leaving this task for an abler pen which shall yet write tho history of Hawaii nei, from tho period when Jarvis loft it, down to modorn days. Hut I may Do excused for setting forth briotly, at this point, tho sentiment that pcVvnded tho foreign community in respect to tho conduct of tho French ollicinls. It was to this o fleet: Might makes right. Eight, in this caso, had to submit to might; but whilo perfectly non-resistant, tho Hnwaiian Government had stood up in tho face of tho civilized world and boldly asserted its inalionablo rights, whntover might bo tho conso quences, while its property was being de stroyed nnd tho sovereignty of its King, guaranteed by Franco herself, was boing trampled undor foot by a French force, armed and accouterod ns against a bel ligerent opponent. A primary principle of tho law of nations is that independent states nro on n perfect footing of equality in tho matter of sovereignty. "Power or weakness does not in this respect produeo any dill'oronce." By that law, tlio Fronch Admiral had no right to demand of this Kingdom a fraction moro than ho would have demanded of tho most powerful Kingdom on earth. Franco nover would have presented, much less insisted on, such demands as tho ton specific ones not forth by Dillon and tho Admiral, to any of tho great powers, nor would sho have for ono instant allowed any of thoso powers to mako such demands upon lior. No violation of troaty was charged, nor could hnv boonjshisrged. Hut nn irro concileablo diflefonco of inlorpvotation existed as to tho 0th Articlo, and to en deavor to compol this Government to adopt Dillon's view of prohibition, nnd at tho samo timo to satisfy L.'s craving for rovongo against "Wyllio nnd Judd) tho Admiral took military possession of a portion of tho Hawaiian domain, includ ing tho Government offices and Custom House; tho public (ns woll as privato) property in tlio Fort was destroyed; tho guns spiked, mutilated and rondored uso loss; tho magazines broken open and their contents, thrown into tho sea; His Maj esty's yacht seized and earned oil'; soven privato vessels detained and thu business and commerco of tho town thrown into confusion and mado to suffer loss. And all this, without n particlo of right or jus tice on tho siilo of tho Fronch authorities. It was a fihamoful illustration of tho postulato that "might makes right," nnd a blot upon tho chivnlrio French name. H. L. S. HAWAIIAN INVESTMENT & AGENCY CO., LIMITED.
