Arthur Johns tone) Editor and Prop 'r,
SATURDAY.... MARCH 13, 188G.
Mr. Parnell has lately brought forward
a new scheme by which he proposes
to apply the surplus of the Irish
Church, or at least all of it that has not
already been expended, to the relief of
the starving poor of Ireland. As some
thirty thousand people have already
applied to the Mansion House for relief
this proposal to use the Church
surplus would indeed result in "practical
religion" as it has appropriately
been called.
An astronomer has lately discovered
that the comet which was seen at Paris
in the early part of last December is
gradually increasing in brightness as it
nears the earth. This comet will appear
in the western sky and will be
nearest the earth, about 12,000,000
miles distant, from the first to the middle
of May, when it will gradually fade
away, to reappear at a later period to
those who live South of the equator.
It is already rumored in Government
circles that the Opposition newspapers
have bribed this comet to appear in
thcliimament early in May in order to
intimidate Mr. Gibson's Legislature-How
would it do to call this comet
"Government Cash" because it is all
gone within a mouth after it comes in
sight ?
We see no objection to . publishing
the lesnlts of ordinary business done
by the King in Privy Council, when no
injunction of secrecy is imposed; but
to publish who made or seconded a
motion, or what was said on this or
that question, or how this or that
spoke or votedt is a radical departure
from all precedent in this or
any other civilized country, as well as it
is a departure from correct policy and
good taste. There is only one man in
the Privy Council who would be likely
to be guilty of such a breach : it doubtless
tickled the vanity of this one man,
although he is old enough and ought
to know better, to have it known that
hi made a certain motion, the effect of
which would have been the same had
obscure Mr. Lilikalani made it.
Mr. Carter, the Hawaiian Minister
at Washington, in reply to the statements
made by Mr. John Searles, Jr.,
in regard to the Reciprocity Treaty,
has stated in substance that the argument
about "duties remitted " paying
for the "exports to Hawaii" would
hold good in regard to the trade of the
United States " with almost any other
country." Mr. Caiter adds that a
counter-statement will ihortly be made
by his counsel before the Ways and
Means Committee. Mr. Carter further
states that he regards the present attack
on the Reciprocity Treaty as the result
of business jealousies between
New York and San Francisco refiners.
We hope this view all prove
correct, but we fear these objections to
the Treaty are based upon the determined
policy of the Administration.
Some comment has been made on
our report yesterday morning of an
affair at the corner of Beretania and
Fort streets. In regard to the matter
we wish to state that the cry of
" Murder 1 " was heard by several people
as far down town as the Press of-
jfice. Our reporter went immediately
to the place, saw the man, and received
the report, which was printed in yesterday's
Press, from the officer who
. was first on the ground. The officer,
. who is a reliable man, told us last night
4 . that our report was substantially as he
', received the story from the man, a
w iuese, through an interpreter. The
. (policeman says that other versions may
have been told afterwards, but he has
Only told one story, which was the one
,he gave to our reporter, The interpreter-is
also a reliable man. If there
is any mistakcin the matter the blame
should rest on the man who told the
story and not on either the policeman
who did his duty or on the Press,
which was the first paper to give the
news as it was told at the time. Ot
course, we understand that reporters
are liable to be misled, and wc are
willing to admit that vc had a canard
palmed off on vus a short time since
about adady being robbed at t Thomas
Square ; but the man who plays a newspaper
o.1 trick once generally does not
get Che chance 16, repeat his fun. As
far as the report is concerned which
was added to the account published
yesterday morning, that four arrests
had been made, our reporter informs
us that he was so told before a witness
by a detective on the police orcc. We
do not at present feci authorized to refuse
j to depend on information furnished
by the police.

The Supreme Council of War at
Madrid has confirmed the sentence Imposed

Senator Fryo'a Proposition.
New Yojck, February 23. A Sun's
editorial says : Senator Frye of. Maine
has cvovleu a scheme for facilitating
trade between the United States and
Mexico and South America, which betrays
most amazing ignorance of practical
business. At present the nav for
coffee, sugar, hides, India rubber and
other articles which we import from
tlic countries mentioned, mainly with
bills of exchange on London, are
drawn against shipments of grain and
other produce to Europe. The Mexicans
and South Americans take these
bills and purchase with them European
manufactures, which are sent to them
direct from European ports. There is
no movement of coin, every trans
action being accomplished by aid of
Dies 01 paper, oenaior rrye proposes
tochangc all this. He Would have us
ship, say $100,000,000 in silver to
Mexico and South America to pay for
our purchases, and then, finally, have
it sent back to us to pay us for our
gram and pork. I he process would
involve three ocean transits of silver, at
a cost of not less than 1 per cent each
for freight and insurance, at the end of
which the silver would be back pre
cisely wnere ic started.
