Cholera lias appeared thus early in the season at Briiulisi, Italy, about seventy cases having occurred. All Europe shudders with apprehen sion of the malady's spread. This year will probably yield as ghastly a record of the scourge as the pnst two or three years, and from the same countries Italy, France, Spain and Portugal. The mail brings information that France is about to annex Haiatca, Bora Bora and Huahcinc, of the Society Islands. Mr. Miller, British Consul at Tahiti, says that, in ac cordance with the treaty of 1817, any step that France may take toward annexation will be in viola tion of international law. "Wo had thought that the Empire of Hawaii had so far advanced toward con summation that European powers would abandon all further designs in the Pacific 1 The demolition of the Sailors' Home and converting the land on which it stands into a kind of public square would be a double action the removal of an encum brance and the establishment of u benefit which all sensible people will readily endorse. The building, as it is and where it is, is an un sightly object, it shuts out light and cheerfulness, and is the weak point of attack on the commercial centre of tho city by fire from that quarter. More space is very much needed in that part of the town by the public, and throwing open this area for the common benefit would be conferring an incalculable public boon. It may be Jtrue that " poets are born, not made," and not true that " gardeners, farmers, and planters are also born and not made." Very few persons who begin their agricul tural experience after having given the early portion of their lives to some other pursuit ever succeed. The successful tilleis of the soil are almost invariably those brought up to it from youth. The much-vaunted scientific cultivator who prides him self on his knowledge of the scien tific aspects of agriculture, and re lies upon it for results, is always beaten by the practical man who lias learned by long experience how to get the most out of the soil. With tho widening of streets in the burnt district, is it not time the Minister of the Interior was decid ing what to do witli the Bcrctania street railroad? As it lies, it is a nuisance, robbing the public of more than a third of that thorough fare; a dangerous institution, 'in volving damage to vehicles when in a thronged state, as it often is, or on dark nights to carriages passing each other. If it is to remain, the roadway should be graded up to the rails and horse cars put on the track. Then tho railroad might be come a public boon. At present, it is so seldom put to its original pur pose of carrying road material, that it is not woith while maintaining it therefor. Indeed, in that use it is even more of a nuisance than lying idle, for the snorting locomotive is liable to cause fatal runaways. To-night the Honolulu music loving public will have the first opportunity of listening to tho per formances of Signor Cumpobello anil his operatic troupe. They come with a lino leputntiou earned in Han Prancisco, which they have only to maintain here to deserve- the most liberal patronage. Our handsome Opera House will be no credit to Jlio community, but rather a moiiu- tilled only to patronize caterers to tho comio vein of tho populace, while presenting a beggarly array of empty benches to high-class musical or dramatic talent. On the other hand, n scries of first-class concerts being promised the people on this occasion, the company need not be warned that the success of the season will depend on the quality of the initial performance. In addition to the news from Wash ington, which wc were enabled to give in the few minutes left us after the arrival of the steamer on Saturday, the information comes direct that the Senate Committee on Foreign Rela tions has been at work on a new treaty between tho United States and the Hawaiian Government, and actually reported up the draft, unanimously, with an argument for its adoption. Besides maintaining the commercial features of the old treaty, it grants the United States the exclusive and entire use of Pearl Baj', with the right to establish there a coaling sta tion and shipyard. This proposal in volves the Hawaiian Government in one of the very. gravest questions that the kingdom lias ever encounter ed. To accept it is to abdicate a measure of independence, as well as to assume a share of the risks of America's wars, almost ns great as that of any State in the Union. To reject it is tantamount to waiving the advantage of American alliance, if not even inviting the covetous eyes of European powers perhaps invok ing a deadly international struggle for possession of this strategic posi tion, without a duplicate in the Pacific.
