IiOXDOif, Oct. 28, It is believed tbe call for $25,. 000 per share will exhaust the means of small shareholders of tbe City of Qlatgow Bank, and throw tbe burden of the assessment upon a few wealthy men. The assessment will be further increased, as the bank itself hid such an amount of its own shares that about 1,500.000 of tbe present call would havo been assessed thereon. A dispatch from Fen says The British Vice Consul at Bonrgas has been seriously assaulted by Bnssian oQcers, and the Russians refused to allow the British man-of-war Condor to go to Bonrgas.

The Standard pnhlishes a sensational dispatch from Vienna that Russia's military preparations are so vast that nobody can doubt she is bent upon further conquest. The only question appears to be whether she will wait till spring or recommence war before that time. Tbe excuse will probably be the outbreaks or the Bulgarians, which were gotten up by Russian agents. A camp of SO ,000 men is forming at KischeneiT to replaoe troops who crossed the Balkans southwards. Russia refuses to evacuate or Ronmania until Roumania has concluded an offensive and defensive alliance.

Russian agents openly claim that Moldavia, as far as Ecreth, must become Rnssian. A dispatch from Simla estimates that the column will number 10,000 men, with OS guns Koornm column, C.OOO men and 21 guns, and tbe Qnettah oolumn. 12,000 men and 60 guns, beside a strong siege train. One-third of tho troops are Europeans. The decision of the home Cabinet is expected on tbe 29th.

The HaikiMir sayf intrigues are on foot to spread tbe Rhodope Insurrection to Shorn-la. The only result of such a move will be to cause Russia to assert her rights as a conquerer and resort to the treaty of Eaa Stefan o. All the powers are too ranch occupied elsewhere to offer any resistance. The Tiwitt, in a leader, says Rnssia ventures to stand in the way of the execution of tho Berlin treaty because she trusts to the forbearance others. A word spoken in earnest by England or Austria would bring her to her senses In a moment.

It Is preposterous to assert that our hands can be tied by the Afghan difilculty. We must force ourselves upon Afghanistan to the exclusion of others who have no right there. Onr oourse is clear. When we shall enter upon it is another question. It is certain, however, that a decisive csmpaign will not commenee before spring.

Our attention will meanwhile be given to carrying ont the Berlin treaty. A Vienna correspondent says If the latest news he true, affairs near Constantinople are mors and more assuming tbe same semi-hostile phase as before the meeting or the Berlin Congress. The Turkish troops have been moved into the position vacated by theitasslaas, and earthworks are being repaired and armed before Constantinople and Qallipoll. The arranging to increase their forces, and are summoning half-pay oncers to active duty. A special committee for tbe defense of the Capital has been formed at the Seraakierate.

A Berlin dispatch says The return of the Russians toward Constantinople was only commenced after the Porte had rejected the draft demanded by Rnssia. A Vienna dispatch says The formation of a Cabinet by Baron Yon Fretis Cagnado is considered most probable, despite the opposition in political elubs. It is believed in well-informed circles that the probable triumph of Count Andrassy's partisans, both in Austria and Hnngary, will lead to the annexation first of and then of Salonica. The Forte seems to fear this, and is preparing a camp of 100,000 men near Eienitxa. The Journal de St.

Petcniurj strongly recommends that Russia assist the Ameer of Afghanistan with officers, arms and money, to fortify the passes npoo which Russia's possessions in Asia depend. It states that the Ameer has written to General Hangman declaring that his hope is in him alone. Tbe Rnssian press tuwuimonsly advise that indirect aid be given the Ameer. Steps are being taken to organiie a relief fund for the shareholders of the City of Glasgow Bank. Editor' rVotlce.

CRAWFORD MACDOWELL. WEDNESDAY. NOV. 20. 1878.

The Advertiner on Municipal Got. eminent. The Advertiser, though averse tn onr mooting the subject of municipal government for Honolulu," advances nothing in disproof of its practicability. We are willing to give our con temporary the credit of having in former years thoroughly ventilated the subject, but do not admit that as an argument agaiust our "ventilating" the Barae subject at the present time. The ventilation of former years can scarcely satisfy current demands.

Neither do we concede that "seeing no definite action can be taken in tho matter until the session of tbe next Legislature in 18S0, any talk about it now" is "premature." Just the contrary; now is the time to initiate preparatory measures, in order to concerted and intelligible action among citizens. The probability is that the next Legislature will bo disposed to meet the wishes of the people in the matter. If a majority of citizens are opposed to municipal government tho Legislature will not force it on them but if, on the other hand, they desire it, and present that desire in a proper manner, the Legislature will be equally inclined to grant their request. But how is the Legislature to ascertain tho mind of the people unless the people themselves raako known their mind And how are they to be in a position to make known their mind without proper organization among themselves Would the Adtertiser prefer a spasmodic and disjointed movement, hurriedly instituted at the last moment, to a well-digested, matured and intelligent plan of action? If so, we beg to disseut. Our contemporary's opposition on the score of is ill-considered.

Wo see no neces sity for costly "appendages and officials." Nine-tenths of the "appendages and officials" required in the government of a large city might be entirely dispensed with here. This view was plainly stated in our last issue. An apprenticeship of several years served in a municipal corporation fairly entitles the writer to speak with confidence in tho matter. The municipality embraced a population of twenty thousand, and the annual amount paid in salaries was only twelve hundred and fifty dollars. Our contemporary says, "the city taxation would no doubt be double or treble tho amount of the national tax which wo are at present paying." But we havo very strong doubt on that head, and await proof for its removal.

Finally, the Advertiser thinks "we shall doubtless come to a city government for Honolulu one of these days, but tho times are not yet ripe for its consummation." If not ripe moans that the sentiment of the people is not yet favorable to the measure, then we cannot disprove the statement. But we hold that it is the duty of tho Press to enlighten and educate public opinion in a matter so conducive to the general good for tho Advertiser admits "that the city would be greatly benefitted and beautified" by municipal government. Sanitary Improvement. Time and use have a tendency to reconcile us to what at first appears abnormal and repulsive. Sights and scenes, ugly and repugnant, become tolerable by their familiarity.

Protracted contact with obnoxious habits and customs lessens their distastefulness. On this principle we account for the unsensitiveness of Honolulu people with regard to tho deformity of our public thoroughfares, and their stolid indifferenco to a legion of glaring public nuisances. Visitors from abroad aro demonstrative in their admiration of tho picturesque beauty of this little mid-pacific metropolis, afforded by tho luxuriant variegated verdure of its indigenous and exotic vegetation, and are eloquent in their praise of our hotel, our government buildings, and our advancing civilization. This is grateful to our pride and patriotism we appreciate the favorable impressions of our guests. But those same visitors aro not Blow tn discover numerous removable defects, and not give utterance to emotions of disgust in unequivocal English.

Whilst the stranger, unaccustomed to sights and odors rife in parts of this city readily detects them, old residents, from long familiarity, aro seemingly unconscious of their presence. At least, it so appears to us. Sights incongruous to esthetic vision and odors abhorrent to olfactories abound within the town limits, and yet we apathetically tolerate them. Bugged and disjointed pavements meet tho eye at almost every turn: pits and ruts open their mouths and excrescences reveal their heads in almost every street. These are minor defects and deficiences, attended by inconvenience and discomfort.

But what shall we say to the public streets and by-ways being made tho repository of filth and rubbish Or to tbe accumulations of stable compost in the very heart of the town Or to the heaps of foul matter to be found purefying and emitting noisome effluvia in various localities, particularly in the neighborhood of Maunakea street and Smith's lane These things are more than mere inconveniences and causes of more than mere temporary discomfort they aro a reproach to the city, a disgrace to those immediately concerned, and a standing menace of disease and death to the whole community. This is a gloomy view, but not unduly so. The aspect is serious, and calls for serious consideration. Inhaling miasmatic Tapors and breathing a poisoned atmosphere will never conduce to health and longevity. Who can compute the amount of bodily Buffering, culminating in untimely death, annually resulting to the people" of Honolulu from this cause Ah 1 who And that the mortality is not manifold greater cannot be attributed to sanitary precautions, but to an incomparably healthy climate and tho assiduous attention of trade winds.

Moreover, the comparative immunity from pestilences which has marked the past should not be mistaken as evidence of security against their occurrence in tho future. The climax of evils is not yet reached. We cannot for ever triflo with health conditions and escape the penalty of disobedience. Xot only so, but in proportion as build- ings multiply and the population grows larger, bo will the danger increase. We have read of the historic plague of London and of plagues and pestilences which at different times and in different countries havo well nigh depopulated whole cities where cleanliness haB been neglected.

Is not the city of Honolulu rendering itself liable to similar calamities by neglect of the Bame thing? People who are wise will be warned by the experience of others. The habit of being satisfied with things as we find them is not creditable to an enlightened age and people. To endure what can not be remedied is brave and philosophic but tarfe submission to a curable evil is no other than pusillanimity and indolence, and its prevalence is one of the most characteristic distinctions between the savage and the civilized man. Progress and improvement are tho of this practical age, and Honolulu would do well to inscribe them on her escutcheon. We ought not to be content with the heritage our fathers left us; we should strive for improvement, because improvement is both desirable and attainable.

As decent clothing has taken the place of semi-nudity and well-appointed habitations now occupy ground on which grass and mud huts formerly stood, so we wish to see the existing state of nastiness superceded by cleanliness and order. This wish deep and earnest induced tho foregoing line of thought, and prompts us to agitate an unsavory subject. Tho dream of Honolulu becoming the fairest, the most beautiful, the healthiest city of the Pacific the queen of this mighty ocean is one whoso fulfillment we would fain realize. And to this end we urge the necessity and importance of organizing a responsible civic administration. In our opinion, the establishment of such a government is the most feasible and the most effectual way of accomplishing needed im provements and reforms, and until the Advertiser can show stronger reasons to the contrary than appeared in its last issue we shall adhere to that opinion.

Wo doubt not, the majority of thoughtful, common-Bense citizens who have observed tho working of like institutions elsewhere will agree with us. To the Editor of the Hawaiian Gazette Mr. Editor. It is not uncommon for inconsistent utterances to be found in successive numbers of tho same newspaper. But it must be quite unusual to find expressions so exactly contradictory as the following In parallel editorial columns of the last issue of the P.

C. Advertiter. In the first column, thus The Hawaiian race are dying of too much liberty." To grant kuleanas to the common people was a great mistake." The solecism that nil men are created free and equal." The common man in Hawaii nel was subject to his hereditary chief, and was controlled for bis own benefit." (I) Now disastrously to himself, he owns no master." In the enjoyment of his constitutional rights he can't be compelled to go," (to the huspital.) All this may be so. Wo do not sow controvert these positions, although a little startled by one statement of fact. But in the next column the editor proceeds as follows Let them (Ilawaiians) be placed by the law upon the same footing with others here, in their own as to personal rights, privileges, and responsibilities." Our sumptuary laws have failed through partiality." "These laws should bear on all alike." No odious class legislation no statutes allowing to one race privileges denied to another." In the first article the editor denounces tbe former extension of equal rights to the Ilawaiians as de structive to them.

In the second, antipathy to class legislation flames ont, bat only when that legislation is to protect the weaker race from the eup which is sure to enslave them, not for their own benefit." I am happy to know that tbe majority of disagree with the Adtertiicr in both of its above named articlos. The AdvtrtUer is eager to open up a new source of industry to native Ilawaiians. It appears to be ignorant that in Lahaina, where grapes grow in perfection, with ample market at 10 to IS cents a pound, (a price prohibitory to wine-making) the natives have lacked energy to replant their vines. It forgets that with poi at 3 cents a pound, surpassing'in profit any known garden crop, natives bava extensively abandoned their at low rents to for rice culture that ordinary laborers get $1,00 to $1.50 a day that enterprise and employment in varied forms is crying loudly for workers both skilled and unskilled at highest pay, while natives are selling sweet potatoes (tho easiest of crops) for $3.00 a barrel, and bananas at $1.00 a bunch, or $1000 an acre for a years produot. And yet your good neighbor of the Adcertiier is so concerned to find work for poor Ilawaiians that he would encourage them to make wina I I assure him that they will make sweet potato mash much more easily and cheaply, and vastly prefer its aphrodisiac effects and when the valat give out, they will fall back on prickly pears and other delectable swipes.

I sincerely wish onr friend would employ some of his zeal and ability to win Ilawaiians to abstinence from all that can intoxicate, and also ia support of the vlgoroni execution of onr wholesome laws, especially in country districts. He would thus promote among them industry, good order and health, and might both confer and rccelvo a benefit. Kamaaixa. A dispatch from Alexandria says Tbe inundation from the Damietta branch of the Nile is advancing. It now covers 120 square miles.

Twenty villages have been submerged, and from 600 to 1000 lives lost. Several German Socialist newspapers, anticipating suppression, announce their discontinuance, aad at the same time advertise the appearance of new journals by the same publishers. Thus the Voorwarti, a particularly violent Socialist organ, announces the speedy appearance of a paper to be known as the Reform Journal, to be devoted to tbe general interests of tbe people. The editor of the St. Petersburg Jluetti Provoda bas received his first warning for printing a letter to General Prentel, the newly appointed Chief of tbe Secret Police, exhorting him to deal leniently with political offenders.

The Goloi bas received its first warning and its sale on tbo street has been suspended for attacking tbe German Anti-Socialist law. Tbe Cologne Gazette states that ia eonieqnence of tbe new law the Social-Democratic Assoeiation bas modified its programme to one of simple Liberalism. EDiNBURan, Oct. 28.

Several Gymnastio Societies in Alsace have been dissolved by the German Government for having taken part in a recent international gymnastic festival at Paris. axo Texas-Pacific. Tbe Savannah Cotton Exchange held a meeting in that commercial mart, recently, to consider railroad matters in connection with the South. They adopted resolutions declaring that the road ought to be constructed without delay, upon the plan proposed by Johnston, of Virginia, allowing the Southern-Pacific to build eastward until met by the Texas Facifio going west, and providing for separate short lines from EI Paso to New Orleans, and from El Paso to Memphis, with an intermediate branch at Vicksburg. This is what the sand-lot agitators call "pooling issues" between Stanford Co, and Colonel Thomas A.

Scott, and it certainly bas the merit of apparent fairness on both sides. That tho line of railway clear through ought to be constructed at the earliest practicable period is patent, but it is all-important to first establish justice between the competing companies and, more than all, between them and the people. Depths or Likes. The Bavarian Courier publishes an interesting comparative statement of the depths of lakes. Among European lakes tho in tho Tyrol, heads the list.

At some points the depth of this lake amounts to 2,500 feet. The greatest depth of the lake of Constanco is 075 feet, that of the Chiemsee about 458 feet, and that of tbe Walchen and Konigssee, QU feet. The measurement made about 1S70 at the Dead Soa showod that at its deepest part its depth is 1,836 feet, but if we consider that tho lovel of this lake is already 1,391 foet below tbo level of tho Mediterranean, then wo find that tho total depression in tho soil here amounts really to 3,230 feet. Tbe lako of Tiberias is extremely shallow in comparison on its easteen part the average depth is only 26 feet while on tho western side it lies between 19 and 22 feet. In lake Baikal depths have been found which for a lake are utterly astonishing.

In the upper part of the lako tbe depth is 10,800 feet (about tho bight of Mount Etna) but downward tbe bottom constantly descends, and near the opposite bank the depths amounts to 13,230 feet. The depth far exceeds tLat of tbe Mediterranean Sea, which at its greatest part measured only 7,800. NEW ADVERTISEMENTS. POUND NOTICE. TlaERE WIXI.
