Holidays. Public holidays, like Sundays, are supposed to tie made for the people. The. 2 is nothing that tends so much to arouse and foster a spirit of nationality and a love of country in the people, as the proper and intelligent observance of holidays set apart to commemorate some important "event in the national history. As an instance in point, observe the immense influence produced upon the American character by the universal and enthusiastic observance of their principal holiday.

There are those who assert, and with i v. i t. i 1. i. jiiuuniuiiiiy, uiuk mcio me wicurauuu ut I r-it I veneration for Republican institutions would correspondingly decrease.

The grand idea of self government thus perpetuated is the underlying canse, and recognized alike in the squibs of the school-boy, the roar of cannon, and the sometimes bombastic utterances of the orator that provoke our smiles. An occasional holiday is tineful too, serving as a breathing spell, a relaxation of the constantly bent bow of labor, when both the employer and the employee can meet on the equal plane of a common enjoyment. In thin particular, holidays have a tendency to produce the healthy sentiment of a common humanity a sentiment that too often requires to be stimulated in these days. National holidays in Hawaii nei appear to have arrived at a condition of tameness that entitles than to bo called non-descript. Last Tuesday, for instance, was neither a Sunday, a fast day, nor apparently, a holiday, as such days are observed in other countries.

Lias government no duty to perform in this matter, beyond simply closing public offices and firing a salute? Aside from the anniversary of His Majesty's birthday, the 2Sth of November is the only strictly national holiday that we have, and the native race, proverbially fond of public shows and celebrations, is reduced to adopt the gala days of foreigners. Formerly, the 31st of July, the anniversary of the restoration of the flag of the country, was a great day of festivity and rejoicing throughout the Islands, and we were wont to have public orations, where thousands listened to the rehearsal of the history of the past and were urged to renewed hope and exertion for the future of the nation there were grand processions, -with badges and waving banners, a grand mesa dinner, and the day wound up with a display of fireworks, and possibly a But the observance of that day, has, unwisely we think, been dropped, because, it is said, that the historical recollections it evoked were unpleasant to some of the King's foreign-born subjects. And so, for that reason, the memory of Kamebameha the Good," as Kauikeaouli was rightly named which was inseparably connected with the observance of this day, as well as that of the noble chiefs now passed away who surrounded him on those public occasions, must be suffered to sink into oblivion. Something undoubtedly might be made of the day which has just passed off so lamely and unfashionably," were any pains taken by government to instruct the people as to the real meaning of the celebration the history of the mission of Richards and Ilaalilio to Europe and America, and what came of it and the central idea of a National Independence. If, indeed, our -rulers deem the understanding of the people of any importance in that direction.

"We publish on the fourth page of to-day's paper, a sermon preached by the Rev. Mr. Williamson, of the Aogliean Church in this city, on the lesson of the life and death of the Bishop of Melanesia, on account of whose murder we printed in our last. This painful occurrence must produce a profound impression wherever it becomes known, and England particularly will be aroused, and demand a prompt and vigorous exertion of the Government to put down forever the infamous traSc in human beings which has been the immediate cause of this calamity. The press has often heretofore urged the necessity of putting a stop to this nefarious traffic, in the interests of Jin mftn it-w Knfc nnur vftuw vt uinrijrnm iu ley- sionaries senJs forth a voice that cannot be ignored.

We are glad to eee that our supplement of last week Lad the effect that it was designed to have, to call public attention in a forcible manner to the need that exista for eome energetic forearming of ourselves against a possible calamity such as -sraa portrayed in the 0'reat Fire in Honolulu." It seems to ne, that in eneumerating the advantages arising from the establishment of a city for Honolulu, the control of certain nuisances, and abating of eome evil now existing, might be made feasible. We know that effort have been, and are being made to take proper care of property, but what we most need is a council, that, meeting every month eay, can take immediate notice of complaints, and frame laws and orders to correct abuses. The total abolishing of the building of grass huts within certain limits should be insisted upon, and some provision made for the removal of those now standing in our midst. Th TVrd nf Health have done what they could, we presume, to mitigate evils already existing and to provide for possible contingencies in a sanitary point of view. At the same time, there are many little things of which property Id come owners have cause to cumpun within the province of a city council, but which do not properly belong to the health officer's deportment.

The officers to whom complaints are now made, have their own peculiar duties to perform, and we can hardly ask them to take cognizance of the little annoyances of every day life. Our newspapers are open to correspondents on these as well as other subjects; but the fact is that notes addrestsed to the public through Mr. Editor, though they may call public attention to the exibtence of an evil, at the same time afford room for the bhifting or responsibility in the matter to the public at large and we know that what is everybody's business is nobody's. lw matters iat require iinuieaiaie ac i tion ouebt not to be neglected until a possible city government can be formed. We tninK mat it is the duty of every good citizen to do all that i he can to make our city more safe from fire.

To ne can tu maac u- i 1 this end. tree access bijouiu ue uau exposed to accidental nres, ruuuiou ouuuiu uu cleaned out, and useless articles removed. Then, when called upon, our Fire Department can give full scope to their powers and show that their claims to thorough organization and efficiency are as we believe them to be, well founded. It is the part of ordinary prudence to discredit the gossip of common rumor, unless one knows precisely on what it is founded -and then indeed it ceases to be rumor and becomes fact. Somehow this community is so constituted, its elements are bo leaky, that the air is frequently filled with rumors, of one sort or another, and I the journalist, while he listens to all, ventures to credit few or none for the purposes of his profession.

During the past ten days however, there has been afloat a rumor of coming changes in government that, first covertly and 6ccretly whispered by a few, has gone on increasing in tone and volume until now it is openly talked of at the street corners. The clianges that Madam Rumor now insists upon as being on the tapis, extend to the composition of the Bench of the Supreme Court. But even the hint of a possible change in the highest tribunal of the country that sacred aegis of the rights of every man, woman and child invests rumor with an importance that cannot but arouse public solicitude. Nor is this natural feeling of solicitude 'at all allayed when reflection brings to mind the vaulting and unscrupulous ambition of some now in power. Madame Rumor bath it, that the office of His Hawaiian Majesty's Minister Resident at Wash- I ington, is to be created and that the appoint- to fill this post will be followed by a change in the office of the Minister of Foreign Relations.

We would suggest that, in view of these rumored changes, the Government embrace the opportunity thus afforded, of recognizing the importance and high standing of the German element in this Kingdom. any event, so far as the Cabinet itnelf is concerned, a change for the worse is not among probabilities, but we can well perceive that the rumored shuffling of the cards would afford an opportunity for "vaulting ambition to realize its life-dream yet caution suggests that it may o'er leap itself." A. Home Picture. Mr. Julius A.

Palmer continues bis Hawaiian Experiences in the Boston Commercial Bulletin. In the number for October 14, we find a vivid description of what the writer saw in the Legislative Halts of Hawaii nei, which, although decidedly colored, is sufficiently to the life to provoke a hearty laugh, and with that view we reproduce it here. At the time we resided at Honolulu, the Reciprocity treaty was agitating the local parliament. These putres conttcripti are chosen from all colors and languages; there is every grade, from the full-blooded Caucasian to the swarthy native. How asks an incipient politician, how do they debate?" "How proceed according to Cushing's Manual These questions are answered in the name of one man.

Bill Ragstulk." "And who might that individual be," do you further ask? Bill Ragfldale is the parliament, the king, the people. Bill Uagsdale is the power behind the throne. In could not see bow the Sandwich Islands could be run at all without Bill Ragsdale. ilr. Ragsdale would require the grand total of the eight columns before you to do him full justice.

We can only allow ourselves to touch" upon a few of the incidents told of this wonderful character. As the pen is mightier than the sword, so the tongue, which no man can tame, is mightier than the pen. This is the secret of Mr. Ragsdale7s position. On an elevated platform, facing the nobles and the lower house, stands a young, half-caste gentleman, apparently about thirty years of age.

As fast as a European makes a speech, it is rendered without the least hesitation into Hawaiian, and vice versa. I make bold to say that the world never known a more fluent interpreter. The kingdom of Hawaii recognises the fact, and no royal scion indulges in freaks of fancy with more impunity than Bill Ragsdale. His character i not above reproach what matter? Parliament cannot it without him. He has been in the prison and the coain-gan more tban once.

Tne Halls of State have then attempted to legislate with other aid, but it was no use debates flagged, members snored, interpreters asked speakers to repeat their phraseology, and the Hawaiian chariot wheels dragged as heavily as did those of Fbaraob in ancient days. At last a bold member would move a free pardon to Bill Ragsdale carried the king signs it at once, and a messenger is despatched to the chain-gang. II r. Ragsdale is never disturbed by anything he greets the messenger with perfect self possession, and with the air of the physician called at last extremity in an important case. He exchanges his prison dress for a coat of white cassi- -niore, (he is a very Beau Brnmmel in toilet) and en uts me noiine.

in a rusu all is changed bis electrical influence has put life into the assembly gifted with a wonderlul natural eloquence, he glows with enthusiasm in the debate, and either in English or Hawaiian inspires every listener. He is not always impartial be can put through or crush a measure at his will, control the native element at bis pleasure. When the Reciprocity treaty was debated in the Hawaiian Parliament, it was with difficulty that the natives could be brought to ee wbalun advantage iu adoption would be to the Island Kingdom. Bill Ragsdale bad bad his head broken in a drunken frolic It was a critical moment Mr was to make next day Vie speech in favor of the treaty. A select commitue labored with Mr.

Ragsdale; (ex-member Of General irant-a atafn iraro the best surgical care to his head, while Dr. Mon eybags attended to bis pocket. When I next naw Mr. Ragsdale he was eloquently interpreting Mr. great speech.

With a handkerchief bound around his head, he was carrying the House with his splendid pleading and bis graceful gestures. As a wind-up to this writer's criticisms ou our Island community, read the following paragraph Will these islands ever fall into American hands? I think not; thej were virtually overned by American influence for many years. It was a Jewish Theocracy, repeated by Americans. Tey have thrown off the yoke. The government, all foreign-ers, excepting Americans, a great proportion or the natives are now strongly anti-American in th? two parties, efn-esponding to the Wines and Tories of other lands, although there no exact analoey as to their respective principles.

Tne "are diSt to define in general terms they are mostly local issues. One is thorougly and obtnisivelAmerican. the other consei vative, with a leaning toward Eugland. An Incident xr Edito I know nothing of the management and discipline of the Queen's Hospital. It appear, to be a worthy and noble institution, and a credit to the community.

A little occurrence, however warf noticed on the street the other morning, which gave an nnoleasant impression, to say the least. A hand cart, containing a plain red coffin, came trundling down from the hospital to the Kawaiahao Churchyard, gaily escorted by a number of Hawaiian frail sisters," of whom there seem to be quite a number at the hospital, under the provisions of the act to mitigate." The street echoed, as they went onward, io the light laughter so sadly familiar in other well known quarters of town, and yet more did it echo, when in a few minutes the same unhallowed conveyance rolled merrily back, laden with one half of the heartless troupe, the other half acting as trundlers to the trundled, while the man with the oo, who had served as an extempore sexton, strode mightily along, using his implement as a stylish walking stick. Perhaps it was all right. It might have been expected from the poor lodging places to the east of Kaumaka-pili Church. I have ouly described it as it appeared.

Nov. 29th 1871. Hawaiian. The Lixe via Fiji. In the Southern Cross, of Auckland, Oct 8th, we find the following Mr.

Hall has decided to withdraw his Californian service pending the decision of the Inter-colonial Conference at Melbourne." Such is the latest intelligence respecting the Fijian traus-Pacific service, as I I rewiveu tyr oju, nm, occur was anticipated Dy all who permitted them- selves to look dispassionately at the subject." The lukewarmness witn wmcn r. uau proposals were received by the various Australian Governments arose from the general conviction that the effort I being made was too much of the nature of a venture, not having within itself the elements that ensure success. That effort was sustained with great spirit 1 in untoward circumstances and Mr. Hall, not i having received that encouragement which he had expected, and on which his venture depended, has prudently retired from the unequal contest. It is needless to say that this is the close of the effort, the withdrawal of the service "pending the decision of the Inter-colonial Conference at Melbourne being intelligible.

This result is not to be regretted. Any prolongation of the struggle must only have deferred the settlement of a question that has been too long pending and now that the people of New South Wales, and of Australia generally, can have their minds undiverted from a trans-racifio mail service oapable of answering every requirement in the most satisfactory manner, we trust that the overtures so recently made by the Government of New Zealand will meet with a satisfactory response.
