In reality we pay much too high for the necessaries of life; wltn the single exception perhaps or table vege tables, and there again we are indebted to the beatben Chinee, who comes to our doors with bis baskets of cabbage, lettuce, turnips, bocts, etc.,' which be sells at fair rates. But as we produce no flour, Irish potatoes or onions, (ex cept a sort of shallot) these bate to be imported from California. AH our flour, bacon, hams, alted meats and canned provisions come from California or Oregon, and somebody must make , bandsotoa profit on them, aa can be seen by examining the quotations there and comparing y, Itb price- We wiU feW ' figures.

Hams we fay twenty ecnts for, but they buy the very best, in California, (do vie get tie tikt best?) for 13 to 14 cents. In the matter ol butter, a neces sity for every well-ar jointed table while Hono lulu householders have to lav from 35 to CO cents pr ourd lor not always an unquestion able article of butter, we read in the papers from over the way that they are luxuriating in fancy butter,' fresh roll, at 25 cents; choice, 20 to 22 cents; common, all chape that is what we get, perhaps 10 to 11 cents." For potatoes from California we pay two and a half to three cents a fiund. Quotations there are thirty to frty cents a hundred. For onions we pay six cent-t a pound. They cost in San Francisco at the highest, eixty-five cents a hundred. In the matter of horse feed, we pay two and a half cents for oats per pound, which cost $1.40 a hundred weight in San Francisco; and for barley 2 cents, that costs seventy cents a hundred there.

Our treaty of reciprocity with the United States was gained alter a long struggle, and granted mainly because it involved no party iesue. Tbe present Secretary- of tbe Treasury of the United btatcs, Mr. Sherman, (for what good reason we are uninformed) has always been opposed to Hawaiian reciprocity. But if Grant is made President in 1830 which be will be, if he consents his influence and tbat of the Repub lican party should prevent the threatened abro gation of our treaty. THE TALE OF THE POLYNESIANS. This is the title of an interesting article in the N. Y. Independent of September 11, by Titus Munson Conn, M. D. Dr. Coan is a son of the Rev. T. Coan of Ililo, and was born at that vil lage some forty years ago. As a native of 11a waii, he very naturally feels an interest in all tbat concerns the Islands and their people, and in the article under review, after asserting the fact that to all the tribes inhabiting tbe differ ent groups constituting Polynesia, the contact of foreigners has been destructive, and for causes that are in each case substantially tbe same, he propounds the questions: What Lave these causes been? and, Will tbey continue to act? These questions he proceeds to answer at length ; but our limited space will not permit of our re producing tbe article in full this week. Tbe primitive checks on population in Poly nesia those that were in force before the arrival of foreigners he states to have been : 1. Infanti cide. 2- The ignorant and careless treatment of children. 3. Frequent wars. 4. Oppression by the. chiefs. In exemplifying these points Dr. Coan is generally correct in bis premises and conclusions ; though he might have been re minded that with all these acknowledged checks on population, Capt. Cook in 1778 estimated the inhabitants of the Hawaiian Islands at no less than four hundred thousand. While Cook doubt less overestimated the population, yet a careful survey of the known history of the race will go to show that their diminution has beeti more owing to outside influences than from causes in herent in the people themselves. Dr. Coan, though generally well informed in matters of Uawaiian history, is in error when he says that it was not until about the year 1852 that ownership of the soil on which the Hawaii an natives lived was conceded to litem by tbeir Jving, Kamchamcba III.' The Hawaiian Board of Commissioners to Quiet Land Titles," was organized in 1S4G. Before that Board every na tive who occupied a house-lot or cultivated a taro patch, was invited to appear and prove the facts, whereupon be was awarded a kuleana, or title. Before the year 1352 the majority ol the common people had become landholders. Suddenly released from compulsory labor for the chiefs; made the absolute owners of the soil on which they lived; given the privilege of the ballot ; why should not the Hawaiian peoplo have gone on to increase and multiply ? In accounting for tbe modern causes of decay among the Polynesians, Dr. Coaa we apprehend loses sight of an important con- j sideration, namely, that less than sixty years have elapsed since civilization was introduced among them. He makes no account of the sud den change from a condition of serfdom to inde pendence and constitutional liberty. By tbe Constitution granted by Eamehameha III the Hawaiian was made. Lord of himself, tbat heritage of woe !" And he has been, under this hot-bouse treat ment, going to decay ever since, it required several hundred years before the English nation was fitted to receive and appreciate constitutional liberty ; and can tbe Hawaiians be expected to be more apt than the Anjzlo Saxons But we quote from the article in question : - When civilization is introduced to tbe ravage. and the snvage successfully resists it. he bas a bet ter chance ot survival than if he accepts it. For by accepting tbe new conditions be accepts new dangeis. Tbe first of these in destructive power is (a) imported disease. Syphilis, small-pox. and ineae nr.- food brought to the shores that bad n. v. r kn..tn tbem. and their ravages are alwajs di.-a.5f.il. A half of tbe population may be swept hy a Mrurle epidemic of small pox, as happened in Ac-n-i-n Maud. After tbe more susceptible part .,f th- community has been destroyed by these dis ease. hM i inaccurately called "tolerance or tb. tn is et up; and the total mortality, for each di-e.a-. fall nearly to what it is in the countries whence it came. With these destructive causes uiiy a' be classified habits of drunkenness, and even the excessive us of tobacco, which have been very injurious in some of the l'olynesian groups. During: tbe Brat years after the arrival of t-.reinr the mortality from imported disease fir exce. iif tbe destructiveness of their most bloody wars. But imported disease, however dreadful and de ftructive its epidemics have been, no longer con tinue tbe moft potent cause of tbe wasting away ..f tbe Polynesians. The broadest ravages of epi demic among tbe Islands, as elsewhere, are soon tetaired like those of war; and by the same law bich would Oil tbe Atlantic ucean in iweuiy ih tbe progeny of a single pair of codGsb. ii-en. i the eisistent cause which, now that jers w pid-mic di.-ease has spent its force, still wastes wv tiif Marauesans. tbe Hawaiian, tbe New a Zealander. and tbe populations ol a dozen other Polynesian groups! What blight it is that con tinue in full lorce long after wars, infanticide, and oppression have ceased and the imported diseases have can ied off tbe weaker moiety of the popula tion ? Tbe answer is a simple one. This persistent destroying cause is infertility. The native families ute. without exception, small, in spite of rewards offered by the government, as in Hawaii, to the patents of many children ; and it may be added that tbe children, in unduly large ratio, die young. The number of children under fifteen years of age is but 'ib per cent, of the whole population. In tbe United States it is 41 per cent. Mr. Darwin points out that a slight lessening of the fertility of any species, whether of plant or animal, will often turn tbe balance against it in tbe struggle for lile, and produce its speedy extinction. Precisely as nimili In rantivitv often become infertile, so do the Polynesians under tbeir changed conditions of life ; and they suffer the more certainly and pro- j foundly. like tbe Hawaiian, in proportion as that ! contact is peaceably accepted and. therefore, the tnoie complete. And when to the loss from infer- I :.. ,a ttv of chUd en is added, we see the sufficient cause why the Polynesian races are doomed to par.! away. Tbe biologic doctrine on this point ma be stated thus In general terms needed power of resistance Is gained. Gained, j indeed, it will eventually be. should tbe com munity survive long enough ; but the prospect is that in most of tbe Polynesian groups the in- j . . . improved off the lace oi tne earm. ! . .... c -1. in regara to me prospecia oi mo uungiura m the future, the Doctor goes on to say : It will now be asked : Is there no future con- tinuance for tbe Polynesians? Are we to say, not only with the natives themselves, but with such an authority as Mr. A. K. Wallace, that tbe true Polynesians are, no doubt, doomed to an early ex tinction!" This is probably true ol many com munities of Polynesians. Som, indeed, are ex- I tinct already. But it is erroneous to say. as is commonly said, that in tne Hawaiian lsianus, lor instance, a few years more will finish the work. In that group there were 49,000 aborigines in 1872, and but 44.000 in 1878. Supposing the diminution lo continue regularly at tbe rate of ten per cent, for each period of six years, an aboriginal popula tion of over 7,000 would still remain a hundred years hence. Their rate of decrease, however, grows slower of late years, and, though there I seems no present means of stopping tbe decrease I entirely, yet a certain proportion of tbe pure j uawaifan blood may be expected to remain for many generations, unmlngled with tbe incoming current from Asia. Europe, and America. An- nexatlon or violent further changes in the natives habits of living are. indeed, possibilities that would hasten, if realized, the complete extinction ot tbe aboriginal people. Hut, on tbe other band, those tbat are left have survived the severest possi ble processes of selection ; and tbey will more and more adapt themselves to tbe changed conditions, as tbe bair breeds adapt themselves, so tbat tbe pure blood may still be indefinitely preserved. At present tbe total population of the Hawaiian (group is Increasing, and for the first time since the lvinit of Captain Cook, in 1778. 4 The returns give a total of 57 885 inhabitants In 1878, as against oa.897 in 1872. a gain of about one per cent, during six years. The returns, made one hun dred years after Captain Cook's visit to the Islands save tbe Hawaiians a (It subject of congratulation for the centennial year of tbeir so called discovery (for tbey were not only discovered, bnt charted, by Spanish explorers of tbe seventeenth century.) The Spaulding Letter. To the Editor of Vie Pacific Commercial Advertiser. Sir: It is a melanholy fact that there are at present in tbis country a number of men who have no real interest in its permanent good, only in so far as they are immediately and personally con cerned ; men whose sole object in living here, is to make their f pile," then clear out " and leave tbe country to the moles and tbe bats, for any thing tbey care about it. But on the other band there are some, especially beads of families, who cannot subsist on ten cents per diem, and who feel great anxiety over the present state of mat ters on tbe Hawaiian Islands. It is only tbe fav ored few who can ' raise " say two or three hti nd red thousand dollars wherewith to start a Sugar Plantation. Many men like Col. McBean of Oregon, would come bere and be content with a respectable retail business, and add to tbe ranks of those wbo. in every enlightened civilized coun try do conduct all its mercantile business. Tbe letter of Mr. Spaulding stated tbat Honolul did not lose anything by the absense of Col. Mc Bean. I have not tbe pleasure ol knowing either Mr. Snauldinc or Col. McBean : but one thing 1 do know, which is this, that if there were fewer Ch.nese and more American and European Mer chants in this country, it would appear more res pectable to the eyes of tbe world, aud bo bette for tbe country in general. Mr. Spaulding appears to imagine, that by flood ing tbe islands witb Chinese, be and other plant era could then be able to obtain labor on tbeir own terms. Not so. indeed the heathen 13 al ways equal to the occasion f-r I have been told by one of their number, tbat if tbe labor market were over-crowded those caving good employ ment and good wa?es would support the unem ployed until tbeir demands were granted. Now surelv tbis. (coming from their own lips) enough to convince planters tbat tbe Chinese are not tbe class ot laborets wanted for plantations struggling under heavy pay roll ; a class wring' ing the last cent from thoes who employ them tbat they may either send it to tbe r lowery King dom or board it up until tbey are enabled to em bark in some line of business, when by cunning and trickery tbey take the bread out of tbe mouths ot honest men and their families, wdo are work ing along on the good old principle of ' Live and let live." And this should convince the govern ment tbat the Chinese are an undesirable element in the community. Tbe Chinese were introduced into California by grasping men. witb tbe intention of making money out of them in labor ; but in many cases the beatben have turned round and cut out of busi ness many of their former employers, wbo have since become bankrupt. It requires no prophet to predict, for coming events cast their shadows before, and unless some restrictive measures are enforced by tbe govern ment in regard to Chinese immigration and ag grandizement, the great majority or turopeans and Ameiicans will ere long be entirely unable to support themselves and families in tbis country in any mercantile or manufacturing business : and as regards Sugar Estates, tbe chances are that three fourths of tbem may yet De owned Dy our dear friend and wily brother John." I am. Ac. Ac. The otukr side of tub Qi estion. That Fraudulent Treaty. A new result of the nilsoallej reciprocity treaty be tween the I'nlted States and tbe Uawaiian Islands has rotue to light. Information haa reached the treasury department that Demarara sugars are entered frre at tbe Kan Francisco cutum bonne aa BUftar from Hawaii. Suspicion was ftmt awakened by the enormous increase of lxlaud sugar seeking entry at that port. Had theae sugars paid duty tbe revenue to government therefrom during tbe last year alone would have reached two mil lion dollars. The subject is now nndergoing investiga tion. The fact Is tbat through tbis treaty and under pretense of securing for our people an advantageoua trade witb Hawaii, government haa given np a revenue which amonnta to a sum sufficient to psy for all we ex port to the lalanda. and then have a big sum left. The whole rslueof exports of all kinds from the I'nlted States to the Hawaiian Islands for the year ended June 30, IrtTH. was f 1.7k3,6CG. For the profits of this trade, which might amount on a liberal estimate to a quarter of a million dollars, a revenue is given np which exceeds two millions. Worse than all. a monopoly Is created which is able to control tbe sugar trade of the Pacific coast. Tbis cornea about in ways heretofore fully explained and not necessary to be repeated bere. It la one of tbe inconsistencies of a " protective " pol icy that it makes exceptions of this kind. Yet in Its ex ceptions it is consistent always with its own purpose, which is special and the profits arising from monopoly. To let In a commodity from one country free while the same commodity from every other country la tixed fa. ora a special interest and place an unfair advantage in particular Lauds, in the present case, owing to th fact that Hawaiian Sugsra find their market in our Paclftc states and territories, and owing to the distance and coat of transportation from other source of supply, the re moval of the duty on the island product gives "the one man who controls that rrrndnct the chance to manipulate the market at his will. The free au?ar he gets from the inlands Kivea him power to crush competition from other quarters, so that no sugar from the eat or else where can be sold on this coat except on terms made with the monopolist. The treaty of reciprocity with the Hawaiian inlands is therefore merely a treaty for the benefit of Mr. Claus Spreckles, of ban Francisco- and it costs the government more than two million dollars a year and the consumers of the Pacific coast an equal an nual sum. Since government mupt have a revenue, sugar is one of the articles which should always bear an import duty. The prlnciplea of free trade require a duty to be levied on commodities which, like sugar, will pay a clear revenue collectable at little cost, and exemption from duty of thoae articles which like steel rail and grain bags, pay little or no revenue because " protection " keepa them out. while the duty they bear Increase their coat enor mously to the consumer, for the benefit of the protected and favored manufacturer. We Import over 700.000 tons of sugar annually. This article atanda first in tha order of value of Imports Into the Culled States. The tax up owJt is a tax for revenue and not for protection, and therefore it is an equitable one. It Is not a tax to keep out a foreign article in order to put money into some, bodv's pocket at the expenses of all consumers. To the Editor tf the Pacific Commercial Advertiser: Sik : In referring to tbe above, taken from the Oregonian of Sept. 20, 1679, it may be well to re view the article and see just how far it is correct, as the paper las no doubt great influence in its own section. Tbe people of Oregon are our next door neighbors and our friends, commercially; we have bad a large trade with them for years, and we do not propose to give It up. I cannot believe the Oreyonian r tbe people of Oregoo intentional ly desire to do us an injustice, but sucb an article as the above is calculated to awaken suspicion, if nothing more. As to Demaiara sugars being entered free of duty at San Francisco as Hawaiian, it is too ab surd to demand a notice, and I venture to say the Treasury Department of tbe United States has no such information. It is quite true, however, that our sugar export for tbe year ending tbe 30th of September last, does allow quite an increase over the preceding year, and we hope to show a corres ponding increase tbis year; but that tbe United j States lost in duty on our sugar the past year, two millions of dollars is questionable to say tbe least Our entire export of sugars from Oct. 1st, 1878 to Oct. 1st, le'.9, was 45,647,796 pounds. That most of it went to tbe Unifed States is true, but tbe duty could only average 2 1-2 cts. per pound, or say j $1,125,000. I might add that our sugar export for I the year abore referred to exceeded any previous i year fully twenty per cent., so that tbe loss to tbe J . United Statei (if there was a loss) was Correspond- ! ! ingly less as to loss in revenue in that direction, j and I must queition tbe Oregonian's figures when it says tbe Unite! States Government has given up a revenue wbict amounts to a sum sufficient to pay for all the ecports from the United States to these Islands. Let as look b.ck and see just what tbe figures say on tbis subject, and for the matter of compari son will give tbe years 1874, 1875 and nine months of 1876 when theirealy went into effect, say thirty- three months. Cbr imports from the United States amounted to $2297,162.48. Take a like period ! since tbe treaty, which would bring it up to July j last, during wbph time onr imports from tbe United States wee $5,782,346.80. Aside from this we have paid siice tho treaty went into effect for steamers and schooners built in the United States, $360,000. There'ore, our imports during the time referred to have been $6,142,344.89, and our ex ports of sugar for the same time (admitting it all to have gone to he Uniu d States, which is not quite true) were 106.000,000 pounds, and valued at 5 1-2 cents per pound, $5,830,000, which is all tbat it has netted to tbis country, inasmuch as the freighting has all or nearly all, been done by Amerioan vessels, ;be insurance mostly by Ameri can companies, rbt savins; anything about the commissions paid.or containers, &c, all of which come through or B paid for to American houses, Now, if my figure are correct, as I believe them to be, tbe only diference in tbe matter of loss or ? . ... j . ., " tariff' ri e in nlhopirnrda mara t li .1 .. t , V. .. nnMH in the united Sims as in tbu country we should certainly have Disadvantage under the treaty. I anow me uiuereus? oetween our imports, and ex- ports of sugar forrice and hides, which will more than cover. I nay be permitted to add tbat we manufacture notng in tbis country but tbe raw sugar, whereas ot imports are nearly all of"a man ufactured cbaractr; tbe labor and profits therefore are not ours. As to tbe unfair advantage our free sugar gives to Me one man, wekoow nothing about; we simply know tbat Mr. CKus Spieckles came bere and offered to pu rebate our sugars, and we did just what the people o any other country should or would have done sold tbem at tbe best price we could get. We woild have sold tbem just as freely and willingly to a man or men from Oregon or elsewhere, bad the wished to buy. Perhaps it is unfortunate for bob the people ot Oregon and tbis country, that Oregin has not tbe advantages tbat San Francisco basin refineries, and tberelore not able to purchase x classes of sugars or entire crops. I cannot agree vith tbe Oregonian that our free sugar gives Mr. Jpreckles or any one else the power to control c manipulate tbe sugar market on the Pacific Coist. The Oregonian must know tbat sugars have dways been a shade higher on the Pacific side tbm on the Eastern side for vari ous causes. sucb as tbe high rates of port charges, and therefore hig.er rales of freight; higher rates of interest and laior, hence tbe consumers on the Pacific Coast bad to pay more for their raw or re fined sugars, so nucb more that Eastern sugars could fairly compite witb tbe San Francisco mar ket, after paying costly transportation. Surely, our free sugars hive benefitted tbe consumers in tbis respect, if I am to believe the Oregonian. for it says: Tbe fr sugar he gets from the Islands gives bim (Claus Spreckles) the power to crush competition from other quarters." It would seem therefore tbat tbeconsumers are now getting their sugar lower, aud are benefitted by the Treaty of Reciprocity. J. S. Walker. EMPLOYMENT WANTED B1) A GOOD COOK.
