Those who have had the management of the affair are of opinion that the collection will prove a surprise to all who visit it both on account of its extent and of the extreme interest -ch attaches to a great number of the exhibits. As the first exhibition of the kind here, it is sure to attract a great deal of attention, and all who visit it will find that, though a first effort, it has turned out to lie a most successful one. Everything that can conduce to the entertainment and comfort of visitors from ico creams up to the music of the Hawaiian Band will also be found at the Exhibition. Cy The removable floor to cover the parquet te of the Music Hall has been constructed with great expedition. It rests on trestles substantially put together, the trestle feet being bolted to the cross beams by bolts and nuts, the bolts being of half-inch iron.

The floor has lieen divided into longitudinal sections of full length from the stage outwards about 40 feet so that there will be no cross joints to interfero with the quality of the floor, as a surface for dancing on. No more valuable or timely present could have leen made to the Trustees of the Hall than this which the members of the Dramatic Club have given them. Cy A case against a Chinaman for selling spirituous liquors without a license came before Judge Bickerton on the 19th inst. Only part of the evidence was heard, and the case was then adjourned to the 27th inst. The name of the acused is Ahuna.

He has a store at Waialua. One of the witnesses for the prosecution was sent to his place by the Marshal and bought a bottle of brandy there for $2. The illicit sale of liquor will never be put down unless evidence against those engaged in it is systematically obatined in this way. A similar case is alo pending against Ah Eona, a Chinese, storekeeper at YVaUaue. C7" The Directors of the Athletic Association met last Saturday afternoon and examined the several sites which had been offered to them.

One of thcia they almost unanimously approved. They met again on Tuesday tv.Miing to make a formal decision on the subject and were then informed that the site approved on Saturday could not be obtained. After a lengthy discussion another was selected and a Building Committee was appointed to obtain designs for a Gymnasium and estimates of cost of building the same. A deputation from the Honolulu Cricket Club interviewed the Directors as to the nse of the ground for Cricket and it agreed to offer to the Club the right to use the ground every alternate Saturday afternoon up to the end of OctolKf next, on condition that the Club should pay half cost of keeping the ground in order. The Directors are to meet sgain on Tuesday evening next.

(XT" A very pleasant hour may be spent by any one who visits the Photograph Parlors of J. Williams tt where they may turn over at their leisure views taken at almost all points of interest in these Islands, portraits of Hawaiian royal personages, chiefs and celebrities, and pictures of characteristic buildings and scenes. Among the photographs of scenery may be noted pictures of almost every important waterfall in the Islands. Some pictures of the crater of Haleakala are also very interesting. Mr.

Williams has also been fortunate as to procure two or three highly interesting and impressive views of that tomb for the living the Leper setlement at Kalawao. Of a livelier stamp are some imrtraits of Hula dancers and of their dandv leader. CCT We are pleased to welcome two well pointed journalistic pens; Mr. E. C.

Macfarlane, of the SanJ Francisco Wasp;" and Mr. E. W. Tow nscnd. of the editorial staff of the Bulletin and who come to pay the Islands a short visit.

The wit and. sting of the Wasp is giving it a wide circulation. It is an admirable representative of pungent and pointed American journalism and we are proud to say that Mr. Macfarlane, the brother of our fellow "townsmen of that name, and a former resident here, is the chief exponent of that caustic and incisive journal. Mr.

Tov. nsend is known as a superior and racy writer, and a close observer; and we expect truth and interesting points about our Ishnds from his jien. Cy Mr. J. B.

Peterson has recently received a commission as Assistant rostmaster-General. This is the first time that such a commission has been issued; therefore it was an error, as announced by a contemporary, that Mr. Peterson succeeded a resigning officer, with a similar commission. This gentleman has for some time past, been engaged in the duties of the Post-office, under the late Postmaster-General, and with the present incumlient of the bureau. Mr.

Peterson has excellent qualifications for his present duties, and is faithful and painstaking and with his co-operation, we feel assured that the head of our jiostal service will succeed in organizing a very thorough and exact administration of this most important service in all its 1. ranches and details. We hojie for Mr. Peterson a long official career of great value to the public, and of great satisfaction to himself. XZs On Saturday last two of the sailors of the bark Lizzie Bell pleaded guilty at the Police Court to the attempt to smuggle a case of old torn gin.

On Monday Judge Bickerton imposed upon them a tine of $50 each which is the minimum penalty allowed by law. An the affair seems to have been more (if the character of a spree than a deliberate attempt to defraud the revenue it is to be hoped that the Minister of Finance had his attention drawn to it, and that under the authority conferred upon him by our laws he reduced the penalty still further. The old torn was of course, forfeited to the government, a sufficient penalty perhaps, for the offence committed.

A. of Ilonoluln was held on Thursday evening last. By the invitation of the retiring President, Henry Waterhouse, the meeting was kld at his residence in Nuuanu Avenue where most hospitable preparations had been made for the comfort and enterta.iuiu.-nt of the members and their friends. About one hundred and fifty were present, of whom about one-third were ladies. The meeting being called to order by the President shortly after h-tlf-past seven, some verses of the hymn No.

145 of the "Gospel" col lection were sung, and Ir. J. A. Cruzan offered praj-er. The Secretary, Mr.

Deuipsie, then read the minutes of the March meetini after which. I f0jiowjg gentlemen were elected to be ofli- cers of the Association for the ensuing year President, "Mr. Amasa Pratt Vice-President, lion. A. F.

Judd Secretary, Mr. Bowen; Treas urer, Mr. C. T. Dillingham; Directors without other office, Messrs.

Henry Waterhouse and Robert Lewers. The President then took the chair and the meeting proceeded to elect the Trustees to serve for the ensuing six years in accordance with the terms of the new constitution. The choice fell upon Messrs. C. M.

Cooke, P. C. Jones and B. F. Dillingham.

It may be here noted that although there was a full attendance of members of the Association of whom there are more than 100 on the roll, twenty-five was the highest number that voted in any of these elections. The qualification of a voting member under the new constitution is that the individual be a member in good stand ing of some Evangelical church." The Treasurer, Mr. C. T. Dillingham then read his report which showed a balance in hand of five cents.

(Applause.) This was follow ed by the report of the retiring Secretary Mr. Dempsie, of which the following is an abstract. Perhaps no year, since the organization of the Society had brought so much that should encourage and stimulate. It had been one of unparalleled success. On the roll of active membership that day were 101 names of which 48 had been added during the year.

The attendance on meetings had been on the whole good, considerably above the average of past years. Through the kindness of J. T. Waterhouse, I.sq., they had had the use of his building, the Lyceum free of expense in which to hold their meetings, also on the same liberal terms it had been free to them for lectures, con certs and prayer meetings, llie Sabbath evening prayer-meetings were, as a rule, well-attended, but a special effort to maintain and strengthen them was recommended. It was a question for consideration whether the ordinary hour for the meeting or that adopted when Mr.

Hallenbeck and Mr. W. J. Smith were here would be found the more desirable one. The standing committees for religious work showed a decided degree of activity.

There-ports of Chinese Mission work were very encouraging. The attendance at both Sabbath school and church were large. The commit tec which visited the Prison fouml much to encourage them, and some conversions were to be traced to their work. The Temperance Committee were doing a grand work. Their Saturday evening meetings held in the Bethel school-room were full of interest and life, and many inst wees might be related of men owr whom the Recur appetite for strong drink had all but supreme sway, who are to-day sober respected men." The Employment Committee had not accomplished all they desired, and earnestly entreated friends here and on the other islands to notify vacancies to them.

The Entertainment Committee liegged to thank the ladies and gentlemen who had lent their services. The Association had shared largely in the blessings which Mowed from the ministrations of Mr. Hallenbeck and Mr. Smith. The rcjKirt went on to give a sketch of the movement to secure a building for the Association, for which till the present time no less than S14.0U0 had been subscrilied.

The revision of the Constitution of the Association and the Charter obtained fur it were then spoken of. A feeling reference was then made to the death during the year of Walter Stuart Lewis, "a youthful, able, and devoted worker in the Y. M. C. A.

The report concluded with an earnest appeal to leave behind the past with its many failings as well as its numerous encouragements," and reach forward to secure still higher results. The retiring President, Mr. Henry Waterhouse then read the following address: BltOTHEllS AND FkIENIJS OF THE YofXll MEN'S Chkistian Association It affords me great pha- sure to welcome you here this evening. We come to recount the merciful dealings of our Heavenly Father in the past and to ask His presence anil guidance, to assist us in devising ways and means for carrying on our Christian work in the future. The past year has been an auspicious one in the history of our Association many great and noble i undertakings have had small beginnings such has been our early history; but we trust that it lias now passed from a state of infancy to one of more maturity and vigor.

The labors of Mr. M. L. Hallenlieck and the stir- ing appeals of Kev. J.

W. Smith, assisted by the contributions of this noble and generous com- munity, have resulted in giving it such a tone and placing it on so lirm a foundation, that we trust its influence may be felt for all time to come. A new constitution has lieen adopted, a charter obtained, an eligible lot secured, and a building committee appointed. We hope during the next year that a handsome and substantial building will be erected provided with all suitable appliances for carrying on our work. The interesting statistics which our Secre- I tary and Treasurer will give us are very encourag- ing, and lead us to hope that this Association will i never lack pecuniary aid and warm sympathy from the good ji-oplc of Honolulu.

I We have a large held for our work on these Inlands, young meti and strangers from all parts of the world visit us. There is plenty of work for every Christian philanthropist to do, and most of it must le done by the strong arms of our young men. The apostle John realized the importance of youthful vigor in Christian work, when he said I have written unto you, young men, liecause ye are Is it not well on these anniversary oe- casions to stop and ask. "Are we doing all we can Is there no way in which we can broaden our field of labor and extend our influence?" It seems to us this might 1 done very materially if the i ladies could be induced to take a more active part in our labors. In this age when woman is tilling i a station never before occupied by her and exert- ing such a marked influence in the world, we should desire very strongly to avail ourselves of this i increase of strength bv addins her nower to own.

Without the aid and co-operation of our sisters a large part of our work must ho left undone.

The C'haimitii of the several standing com mittees of the Association were then called upon for reports.

Dr. Hyde being called responded on behalf of the Chinese Committee of which, however, he stated that Le was not Chairman He said that the Chinese Christians continued steadfast and were carrying on their church work with much activity, notwithstanding the loss of their pr.stor. It was extremely interesting to observe how they carried into their church life, the characteristics which were so conspicuous in their business ways. The Government interpreter who has just arrived was himself a Christian, the sou of "the pastor of a mission churc and having two brother in the ministry Dr. "Whitney retried for the Prayer Meeiing Committee as to the work of the past year.

The oemmittee had leen considering the advisibility of changing the hour of meeting, which being i umiediate'y before the time of evening service in Fort street clmrch. secined'for more than one reason to be disadvantageous. Mr. P. C.

Jones for the Employment Comit tej said they had had many applicants and had found employment for some. They earnestly wished that employers, both here and on the other islands would communicate their wants ns they arose. Some really casps of persons who could get no work, and had no monev, had come under their notice. Capt. Lees had an eucouraing report to make of the work of the Hospital and Prison Committee.

For the last six or eight months an unusual de gree of attention had been given to their reading of Scripture and words of counsel, and onite a number had expressed a desire to be Christimw Whether the nenitence f-nfreTidprpil during confinement would have lasting effects was .1 ouestion he couKl not answer, out it was an undoubted fact, that the prisoners behaved mu-h better and gave far more attention than they formerly did. -Mr. r. Jones tor tne Uniiding Uommittee said they had much difficulty in getting plans.i Some had promised to furnish them and had then backed out. Two plans were there that evening.

He hoped one would be chosen and the work would then go on at once, and he hoped by September 1st they would occupy the building. It was subsequently arranged that the plans should be at the olhce of Messrs Lewers Cooke for inspection by members on rrulay The President requested members to take note as to those who were not members and in-duce them to join the Association. Dr. Hyde mentioned that petitions to the Legislature in favor of the totnl prohibition of the importation of intoxicating liquors had been prepared and hoped members would sign them Mr. Athrrton said that as they hoped to hold their next annual meeting in their own building it was a suitable time to acknowledge with thanks the kindness shown them by Mr, Water-house in allowing them, for so many years, the free use of the Lveenni.

The meeting then adjourned. Mr. and Mrs. Henry Waterhouse subsequently entertained the ladies and gentlemen present wijh all their well known hospitality. The Board of Directors met yesterday, and ap pointed the following Committees Chinese Committee F.

J. Lvons. Our San Francisco Correspondence. from ocn SPECIAL corbespoxdext. Sax Francisco, Apbil 24, 1882.

Sinee my last letter the fate of the Chinese Bill lias nearly monopolised th attention of people in San Francisco, and on the Pacific Coast. It has also largely taken up the time of Congress, and Hawaiian "Reciprocity and other questions have taken a back seat. The of the passage Of the Chinese both Houses gave rise to- ir'rf- litest saiisiaciiou uere, duc tne delay-bt the President in returning it to Congress created doubts and fears whic were soon most unpleasantly -confirmed bT li is veto. This action aroused the most profound disgust throughout the Pacific Coast and the dissatisfaction was expressed in many places by public meetings uncom plimentary resolutions and burning the President "in effigy. In San Francisco it has had the eilect to revive the bitterness of feeling of four years ago, and the rumors that are going about of contemplated measures sound much like the previous agitation tactics.

Anti-Coolie clubs are reported to be rapidly forming, and there is talk of bombs, muskets, etc. Some open-air meetings have been held, and last night a rabble almost a thousand strong marched down Market-street for the purpose of hanging Arthur in effigy at Iotta's Fountain. A handful of police broke up this ridiculous demonstration, but it looked a little like old times. A central executive committee has been formed which seems to be of a semi-secret nature. An address has been issued, to the effect that, as Government will afford no relief, it is time to take matters in hand, and use all the means that nature, art, and science have placed in our hands to expel the Chinese.

Meantime, the Press has taken up the argument of non-employment but the practical inefficiency of that remedy seems to be pretty generally understood." In Washington, the Senate on Foreign Relations is wrestling with the problem of getting up a new bill that will be likely to meet the approval of the President, but there are many who believe that Arthur is too much under the influence of the Chinese Minister, the Railroad Companies, and the Sentimentalists, to sign any bill that will afford practical relief. In event of the failure of Governmental action during the present session of Congress, there is likely to be a revival of anti-Chinese agitation here, and perhaps in a more serious shape than ii has heretofore taken.

On the fourth instant President Arthur sent hack to the the Chinese bill, with a lengthy have urged against it all the way through The popular indignation it excited here may be imagined. The demagogues made it the text of loud denunciations the telegraph wires were burdened with outbursts of popular feeling from all parts of the State; the newspapers vied with each other in editorial denunciations, and there was the very old nick to pay generally, for I time. And justifiably, lor the reasons given are puerile and extremely weak, ns I viean onunu, miiihi siouer John F. Swift, of this city, who was onrof the three who made the treaty of 1881, states, in a puolisheu card, (hut tne Chinese Government flatly agieed to a suspension of immigration for a period as long as thirty-three years, which removes the President's main objection. The Oriental trade amounts to but little for us, as we buy five dollars' worth oft China where she buvs fifty cents' wortli from us.

Attached to the message was a memorandum from the Chinese Embassador, which stated just the objections that the President urged, and which was an interference in national legislation by a foreign representative as unheard-of as it was unwarrantable, ac cording to diplomatic etiquette. Altogether the Presidential action is dissatisfying in the extreme, and not so much on account of its result as because of the weak, unnecessary and valueless reasons upon which it assumes to be based. It reveals Mr. Arthur in his true light, that of the tvnical politician, ambitious of self-succession, and whatever be his published opinions, the mainspring of his action lies concealed un derneath, and will be revealed when time exhibits the plans of the best politician of the Union. It is generally believed that the quiet, but opposition which has carried the day centered in the Six Companies of this city, acting through their agent, Colonel F.

In person, lie is over six feet high, and hnu a heavy, large-featured face, with large blue eyes of a fishy expression, a well marked nose, rather effeminate mouth and heavy, womanly chin. I had the privileged of several conversations with him, and found him, outside of his vast fanaticism, to be admirably cultivated, a keen critic literature, from the Swinbourne-Rosetti standpoint, and well stored in literature and art. At uis lectures and at dinner at the Bohemian Club.where he was the guest of one of the members, he wore his famous velvet cut-away coat, knee-breeches, black silk stockings, low-necked shirt, with a voluminous white lace neck-tie, and his hair, his distinguishing lea tire, parted on the left side, and falling in a huge mop of straight, non-curly locks, upon his shoul ders. His would be a remarkable appearance even without the hair, and with it lie appears so mucli of a "guy" that he attracted the ridiculing Interest of the mob whenever he appeared in the street. 1 1 is ordinary costume is a double-breasted coat of gray velvet, pants of the same, which betray a dislike to his ankles, since they rise so far above them, and a sage-green bilious-looking neck-tie of the real South Kensington ugliness of hue.

Whatever be the eccentricities of the young gentleman, he is entitled to what credit may lie in sin cerity, for he believes firmly in his dogmas and tenets of testheticism, and maintains them with much argumentative skill. I he most interesting feature of his visit to the club was a hot argument over the moral mrssiou of art between him and Hoffmann, the erudite Justice of the United States District Court. It lasted for hours and resulted in nothing, as the two men could not get upon the same piano, and the mental combat was merely a series ot challenges, without any actual shattering of lances. Wilde is modest, unassuming, and extremely affable. His avowed principles do not hinder Jiim from indulging in the roses and raptures of this world, and he evinced a friendly interest in and apprecia tion of the seductive gin-cocktail and the bubbling champagne.

Several of the "rapid" young gentlemen of the club, by the way, proposed to food him so gener ously in stimulants as to place him hum du combat, but though the lesthctic young gentleman partook largely, he shewed no signs of succumbing, while his tempters metaphorically fell by the wayside. The most remarkable thing about the. wnoie career of Wilde is the fact that a ian al most unknown in Kngland shoiM create such a sensation in a foreign country. When Edward A. Freeman, the historian and famous Londoner, arriveo in New York, a short time since, someVpdy said something about Wilde.

The romance date back to lat autumn, when Sir Sidney Waterlow, late Lord Mayor of London, a retired mor- chant, who has given up commerce for philanthropy, visited this font on a pleasure trip, accompanied by his two young daughters and son, the father being a widower, lie was the recipient of mauy a courtesies and hospitalities from me local elite, and as the guest of tleneral Williams took a trip to Monterey, our lasiuonaoie ea- side resort. There happened to be another pleasure party on the kiuio train, mafT of Charles Crocker, his family and Margaret Hamilton ami her sisttT.

The romance is a very run. one: almost a typical sensation of Tho heroine was poor in purse and poorer In prospects, having nothing but a nrigni mind and a noble, womanly disposition to' recommend her. All unconsciously she pursues her ordained path, when lo a turn of fortune's wheel and ahe become the titled mistress of millions. One effect of it is to plunge tho local maidenhood into tlie wildest envy, and the inlonding Bene- diet is worse oil' than ever as regards con tentment matrimonial. TIIK KDMUXltd 1I1I.U Moi mondom and Utah generally are very much excited over the passnge, by Con gress, of the 11 inu nils bill.

Tho measure has been carefully drawn, Is the work of one of the most skillful lawyer In America, and is designed to suppress polygamy and overthrow tlie political ixiwer of tho Mor mons. Its results depend upon tho five men, Commissioners appointed to fcet the law into operation, who nro yet to bo se lecteil by the President. They are endowed with the fullest power, and iijK)n their dls cretiou, wisdom and faithfulness all will depend. Tlie bill disfranchises all polyg ainisls, dlslaces all old priesthood by-giving the political control entirely to ('entiles and tho monogamistlc elemental the young Mormon party, and will consequently produce a complete regeneration In Utah ion tics and Utah society. It Is believed that, with proper management, the Mormon Church can bo llatly divided against itself, the bigoted, polygnniy-steeped Elders and the one-wife Lt'V younger party being arrayed against i.iii other.

Tlie various United States officeholders all over the Territory are resigning, by order of the Church, and tho monogamist Mormons are being put in their places, to evade the law, which applies only to tho polygamous. Hitherto three-fourths of the officials have been of that character.
