Ju<lg- liiounl of Ge>rgia — Chairinan of the F -reigu Helati >ns. <' )inmiti in the House in tiie last Oongresa —will pres:de wnh speeial powers. Admiral Br >wn and <ieneral Sch -tiold and probably Don I)ickenson of Michigan will constitute the Commi«sion. Pree:dent Cleveland and Secretury Greehara have refused to recoguixe the Thurston C )mmissionofficially an action whieh has put these genllemen very mnoh out. Kaiulani was pres-*nl at a receutiou of Mrs Cleveland who has received the Princess with mirked courtesy anei friendship. Captam Wiit?e w lio expected an ov ition upon his nrrival at San Fr incisco was very mueh disappointed, and he was t*-rribly crestfallen when he learued that Secretary Foster had sent a dispatcti disapproving of the hoistingthe d ag and hisdiscomnture was eomplele wheu Cleveland withdrew the treaty from the Senate and intimated that he wouUi send down a Commission to inquire into the facts of the revolution. Tfae Commiesion ean be expected by the U S. cruiser **Rush” whieh may arrive here in the begiuing of April. The P. G. Commissioners are acting like sch-K>l-boys instead of men charge-l with grave and important puhlie functions. Castle in addressmg a Suuday School in Boston accused t!ie Queen of being an idolatress, and Thurston spoke of the ueces«ity of annexatioa at any price. Carter haa threatened to cede the oountry to «ome other power whieh may be willing to satisfy their claims for oftice and financial advantagesClaus Spreckels will arrive here on the 7th of April. He wauts stabie government, whieh he says, we haveti't got at present. The San Francisco Evening Post inf-)rms us that there are a number of marked men in Houolulu more especially connected with the so-called Civil Rights League. Fifteen of these men it is said are to bo taken oul (it doesn't say wbere> and shot while others are to be expelled from the oountry. John E. Bush returned bv the Auatralia and a tremendous crowd of nalives met him at the wharf where they lustily ch*fered him. Mr. Marsden also returned, but his u«ual el->quence seemed lo have been dammed—his clap-trap was at leaet clostd in an unusual manner. Hardships in \Vashington have told ou Joe aad he bas lo*t both tiesh aud color. The missing from ‘.be wreckeū bark .*dy containing Mate Muller ai.d four , meu w«s piekea op by the schoouer Martha, W. T uft from Samoa i bound for San F aneieoo, ou February I2th, 160 u.ilea from Honolulu. All well. A singular eoiocidence is that Capt. Pederson

and w.f- arriv>.-i at San Franc.-co on tbe Australia, Mar. 8th, and :>ar hours later the Martha W. Toft arrived with the miss;ng boat and crew. A? usual the Advertieer at- | tempts to prejodge tbe e A : -t H rr; <:. Thi» undign':fied i | and contemptib!e practice of the j -m- rning p»p r li - 1 :eu so >tten ! commeuted up-m, and the feeling i on the subject in the community Iis 8o pr : ‘ ' it - . - nee- -«irv t • ?ay anything furt >er about it. The utter laek ofc nsistency and l« gic - f the mal ; -i->us ».lit >r ->f the A-lvertiser is illustrated strongly again. Tnis is wiiat he writes : 1 The c ' 1 d-l >■- <le<l murder of D. L. IIuntsman by Augusl Herriug has i>r- -lu ■ -d a feeli:;g of general ii.u g i;-tion." And a later oa : Of the causes that ltd to hiā (ilunlaman’s) violent end, we know nothing.” How then does Mr. H. N. Castle know that tbe murder was u-)t, perhaps morally -ble or not premeditated, »-r not so coid b!ooded, or entitled to crcate indignation. lt would be well to leave discussion of crimina. cases and crimiuals until the courts of justice have pronounced upon them. The Adverl;ser’s roethod remmds us ol’ the following lines of Shakspeare in the mouth of Dogberry “Masters! You are villains—and it will go nigh to be proveu presently l” The dismissal of Marshal Ashley after a two months incumbency is a disgrace to the government and will dtprive the Attorney General of what little confidence the eommunity still has had in his honesty and good intentions. On the floor in the Legislature Mr. W. O. S>uith harangued the po!ice-de-partment under the old regime in strong and abusive terms. The head of the department Mr. \Vilson was di«miesed by the revolutionary government and a man of their own ehoiee and a member of their own body was appointed. The government does not, even give this man a ehanee to show what he ean do, and if he is ahle and willing to plaee the department on such a footing as ean be desired by the community, but fires him out after a short term, before he even has heen able to make himself familiar with the business, whieh was unfamihar lo him. Mr. Ashley has so far given good satisfaction to the country at large. He is an able energetic, court-.-oi)«, »nd ftīrminded man, and there is material in him to make a first class executive ofticer of the government. He has failed, it seems to satisfy his euperior in office_ and we unhesitatingly elaiin that tbe fault is not with the Marshal, but with the Attorney-General himself. No rcasons are given for the d;smis«ai of Mr. Ashley, but it is rumored that it is caused by his refusal to be ballduzed or blackguardcd int > obeying the orders of the puwer behind the P. G. If thīs be so ail we ean eay is that Mr. Ashley hasfully sustained his reputation of being every ineh a mau, while the moral cowards who conslitute the exocuUre ouneil have taken another l step towards the ignommioas exi • n:tion whieh must be their u!timate rvward. ll igement of the HoteI h i- ehu wu a greal deal of courtesy
