Un-ovidin- distrfounctcr general unvs, and tnc striumg out oi the House provisionpostponing for olio year the time for applying the coasting lawsto Hawaii. The prohibition of saloons lii Hawaii as provided bythe House bill is retained in a modified fbrin, in olfect leaving thematter to local option. The House provisions us to the land lawsare retained, including the amendment of Representative Nowlandsof Nevada restricting the amount of land to be held by a corpora-tion to 1,000 acres. The other NeVrfands amendment, providingfor a committee to investigate th'o 'labo'r question in Hawaii, ischanged so that Commissioner of fiabiTr Wright will conduct theinquiry. Th'o appointhioYit bf Circuit Judges, which was the subjectof rathor earnest Uilfor'oV.c'es, was finally decided by leaving theappointments with tli'd President.
The bill establishes a 'complete form of government for the Isl-ands, with a Governor and other cxculive officers', a Legislature oftwo branches and a judicial branchy consisting 'of a Supreme Court,Circuit Court and inferior courts. The bill provides that Hawaiishall be represented in CongxWs by a delegate, have a scat in theHouse of Representatives, with the right to debate, but not to vole.The delegate to Co'n'gr'ess is to bo chosen at an erection of thepeople. There is no tariff prpvisirm in the' bill, as IhU tariff lawsof the United States are extended fever the Islantls and the Terri-tory of Hawaii is specifically made i) "customs district of tho UnitedStates" with the ports of entry at Honolulu, Hilo, Mahnkona andICahului.
London, April 18. l:f)5 p. m.)--LoP- d Robbrls' criticisms ofGeneral Buller, General Warren and Colonel Thoriiyuroffc continuetopics of Vicute interest. 'All the afternoon papers comment atlength on the strictui'es of the British commander-in-chie- f inSouth Africa, taking tho same lines as 'the morning papers, prosi-ng Lord Roberts for his frankness and speculating upon what thopublication of the dispatches at the preset moment portends.
Some of them maintain there is nothing loft for General Bullerbut to resign. The St. James Gazette is particularly scathing.Referring General Buller's report it says:
"Never in the history of armies did it happen that Generalsscribbled their confessions of failure and 'defeat, of useless deathsof men and of discredit, to the flag in a manner which suggests acareiul selection from t"he forced jocular manner, the slangy lan-
guage of the horseman, and the gabble of the smoking room in theeveiling "
The Globe declares that ' a more pitiable record of indecision inplan and confustoh in execution we Vb ?c seldom read," and addsthat "what little reputation General Buller had left has been scat-tered to the winds."

An Important Change.
One of the most important changesmade in the territorial bill before, itwas finally agreed upon is tlie strik-ing out of the provision by whiclapplication of American shippinglaws to Hawaii was postponed forone year. This means that Hono-lulu will lose a good deal of steamerbusiness, unless some special arran-gement is made. If the law goespromptly into effect, the Moano,which arrived today, may havebrought her last cargo from theCoast.
Under American shipping lawnone of the stearnshius. of the TovoKisau Kaisha or Oriental and Occidental linen will be able to do aubusiness between Honolulu and SanFrancisco, and some of the Oceanicvessels will also be excluded. The lawprovides that no foreign steamersmay do business between Americanports. As a result the business oftho British and Japanese steamers,as far as Hawaii is concerned,would bo confined to carrying pas.sengers and frioght between Hawaiiand ports in China, Japan and tliecolonies. No freight or passengerseould be taken from here to SanFrancisco, and nono from San Fran-cisco could bo landed hero, on theforeign vessels.
a lvices have been receivedlocally as to whether the steamerswill continue to call hero, when, theSan Francisco part of their husincsis cut oil. There is a good dealof freight carrying between hereand Japan, but it is all on the westward trip, so that the Japanese andOriental and Occidental boat compunies might find that it would paythem to ignore Honolulu on tho tripfrom Sau Francisco, culling herewith oriental freight on tlie wayback. Tl?re are three of each theLpl:c, Doric and Gaelic of the O. &O. line, aud the Jupaaeiio, HongkongMaru, America Maru and NipponMaru. The Oceanic company hastho Moana and .Mariposa flyinsr theBritish flag.
Tae clause that postponed appliestion of tlie shipping laws for a year
jwuiaiiuvo put oil ths ijiteria-en.e-
with present facilities until some ofthe large new steumcrs were readyfor business. As it is, thero is aprospect of a considerable reduction in tho transportation facilities between here and Sau Franciscountil the big steamers being built arein commission, Star.
Porto Rlcan Plan.
New York, April 18. A specialto tho Tribune from Washington,says:
Tuesday's long Cabinet meetingwas chiefly devoted to consideringthe inauguration of the civil government in Porto Rico on May 1st undi rthe new statutes. It lias been decidjed that the people of tho islands withtheir natural fondness for pomp anddisplay shall be sufficiently impressedwith tho importance of tho newestablishment by tho visit of theentire North Atlantic squadron,
On the day of the inauguration,General Davis, the retiring militarygovernor, will assemble nearlv allthe troops of his department at thecapital and parade them in honor ofthe occasion. Each of the ships willfire a governor's salute of seventeenguns, to be returned m land by theforts ashore. At night there will bea brilliant illumination of the ships,with their masts lined with electriclights and an exhibition of search-lights. The naval display will bemade all the more memorable fromtlie fact that the day will be theanniversary of the battle of Manilabay.
Governor Allen will spend at leasta week at San Juan before his formalinauguration and m that tune it isexpected that he will be able to form aa correct estimate of the qualificaturns oi leading natives lor places mthe executive council, which constitutes the upper house of the legislative assembly and be in a position tomake recommendations to tlie Presi-dent regarding appointments.
It is the impression among Cabinetofficers that most of the men nowholding office in General Davismilitary Cabinet, except the UnitedStates army officer, will be continuedin executive council cither in theirpreseut places or similar offiei sunder different titles.
The President and all tlie membersof his Cabinet are anxious that thecouncil shall be composed of natives asfi r as possible and desire to avoid a 1
semblance of fastening any '"carpetbag rule on tnc island, ihe pres-sure for places in the island, Is, how-
ever, extremely great, and prominentSenator have in some instances givenexceedingly insistent indorsementsto candidates. Governor Allen'smail overflows with applications, butthese can have no weight as it willbe the policy of tlie Administrationto see tlie best possible men for appointments regardless of tho wishesof those who arc volunteering forjobs.
It will bo the effort of the Presldent largely on Governor Allen's re-
commendation, first to complete theexecutive of the island and thenprovide for organization of tlie judiciary. Tlie established courts of theisland, including the Supreme Courtof Porto Rico, will continue to sit asnow constituted. Residents of tlieunited states will bo selected asJudge, District Attorney and Mar-shal of tho United States DistrictCourt which will bo established in ifew weeks at San Juan.

ilWe drifted into Iho liabit of going
out to dine at tile restaurant, itt dif-
ferent places each day.How delightful! snid my wife
frankly 4 am not fatigued makingpurchases; I am not put into an ill
temper by llio domestic because shehas paid tail iiitich for early ve'gotu'bios; I am not annoyed by havingto blow on the (ire in the stove whiclwill not burn when I am hungry;there is no danger that the meat will
be flavored with 'smoke. Otir tableis sot at all hour's of the dav: iii win-
ter, one enters a beautiful diningroom mueh larger than our fourrooms all in one; we choose a seat bythe window where we ban watch theworld go by; in sumllibr, w! rbnininout in the fresh air of the garden;and it is suilicient merely to tap onthe glass with a fork', to have allthat one could desire '. . just as in
the palace of the fairies.And finally paying observed I,
smiling.
Hut thbreupon Evangeline, relyingsecurely bn her experience asan economic house keeper, proved tome as surely Us Mint two and twomake four all things being considered,the same restaurant dinner wouldhave, cost us iliueh more at homo; andas to me. nothing remained but to ac-
cept her theory, and to ask her witha hinile to pardon a great ignoramuswhose happiness he did not deserve!
We had chosen as a model for ourfar distant future, an old couple, fullof wrinkles and good humor. Thesetwo came each day to the restaurant j
the old woman wore a hat like u fun-
nel which the husband would carefullyhang on the hat-ritc- and then theyseated themselves, fully displayingihoir baldness. They woiiUI consultfor a long time in undertones' beforethey could agree upoil choosing hiesame dMi; then they called for it witha sense of great cheerfulness, andwateheel it coming with smiles; andthey ate meditatively, from lime totime felicitating thcniscleves by aglance of the eye, at the judiciouschoice of viands which they hadmade. When the'y went away, armin arm, it see'jned that cheerfulnesshad vanished. Evangeline and I re-
mained for a moment in silence, andthen one or the other of us said!
We iilso, wo will always come tothe restaurant to dinner.
In short, we love each other, andwe were both persuaded that theworld commenced liii'd ended in us.
It was necessary to see us whenwe set out froin he restaurant, armin arm, I ehow-in- g u tooth-pick- ", erect,robust, superb, my Evangelineserene and smilingt both enjoyingthe rays of the slitting sun or thedark clouds of tiio summer eveningwhich threatened to force us to runhome for shelter, or the magnificentsnowy clouds which obscured the sun;
it was necessary to see us then tocomprehend what exquisite sentimentemanates an easy digestion forboth of us:
Shall we ninve em? Shall we? rest?or run or walk slowly ? we win dei
whichever fte prefer.Tlie'rc rid danger that during our
absence' our inlants will tumble down(
stairs, oi' fight frith each other likegood little bi'othors, er ret fire to thebed curtain with limf.hos mnuggledfrenn the kitchen.

this youngster is not ours. And'
we think: patience, poor youngmothers, patience, little angels, Ibisis the heaven to which you have beensent.
A little further vo encounter an
other little tot wlirt is learning to
take his first stops; h'dw tiny it is!
hrtw it totters; the wish comes to usat each Instant to run after it witha pillow iii emr hands to put under itlest it fall and hurt itselft And sob
there another who plants himself in
the middle of the street and will notbudge; the iiiothori the father, themaid strive to jtorsuaele hlin, they donot succeed; they essay to take hishand and the little man utters criesloud enough to cause his little col-lcag-
on the third fleieir lo suddenly
cease', probably, to listen. At thisnoise some passers-b- y jltop . . whatis the matter? ikHhing.strange;n nat-

then I say jeiklnglyl Observe; one of
the first comforts which a we'll raisedchild bt'lieves it his duty to give topapa and mamma'.
And this is nothing probably in
comparison with those which theyreserve for more mature yearssaid Evangeline." When he shall have) entered theUniversity at I'avic pursued I fol
lowing her thought, he will makethe aquaintanoo of a certain MadameReisa, a friend Of the students andof twenty per cent per month.
And when for a word too quicklyspoken aloud in the cafe, he will go on
the grass, as they say. with a schooleennrade.
Or when '. . . ah! said I, interrupting myself, seized by a froling ofcompassion - - if this noeir father. . i e 'could at present se.ei all the.' troubleswhich 4rc reserved for this lad. ho
he1 would give him a geioet floggingquite surer . . . but ,not now 1 added
t c i.thinking b.itlci',of it.
Why nyt now? demanded Evangeline.
i laughed, and thou she Understoodno,and she began to laugh so hearti- -
y that the pass'er-b- s' glanced at us,and then stopped and turned tei lookat us again. We heard one of themsay: These are newly niar.riiid, theyare very happy! I looked reiUnd atthem indulgently, and I had a strongwill te say te them :
Yes) gentlemen; thi is nivEvange'line: wo have not been married avery long time; we love each otherand we arc very happy.
In our selfishness, we cheisa for ourselves a companion, but with juelg
mcnt; this was a discreet friend whosang all day our wedding song andtoeik in all our jeiys witheJut ever do
maneiing more man we cnosc to givehiiii.
(He was not a jihpenix, as you
mightlbelie;ye, but merely oiie;of thatfamily. Ho eallcei himself Hlackbirdwithout really being a black bird.
It was not oven a starling and stillless a solitary sparrow; it sang likeutenor of the first l'ank and hissed likea seasou-'tick- opora goe.r In tl.oscience' of ornithology j so far as a- -
cln'cved by my wife and myself, thisplumoJ beiiig was only a black bird;and in such fashion he lived and diedbearing th!s name which was ne.this, and made the best of it.
I still remember that cruel day;since early morning our ceimpanion,I may say emr son, remained in thecorner of its cago motioid'of's, its evesclewed; from time to time it essayedto pick nonchalantly at aii insectwhich fell n'eai its beak and reinained indifferent to tl.o seductionof songs tho most exemi.V.to whichwere most potent to bring happinessto a black bird. JJy wife did notknow what tei think she enquiredof the neighbors andftf those whomsho met, what could possnbily bo themalady which alllieted her blackbird,and hew it might, be cured? And 6nan occasion so sad, she gavo proofi f a truly matoi'nal heart, lavishinga tlunisund tender cares6s on the'pew littlo animal, calling it u hui.- -
deed put names, but all in vaim,After having unjustly passed as n
blackbird during its life, this littlocreature came to die in tho flower of
its years, as emo might say, withoutemr being able in the least to dis-
cover its true unmet. And, nobeuly
can get it out of my head, this poortiling voluntarily gavo up its life toescape from a world full of injusticeand ignorance, considering tho factthat tho porter who had the careof hint during his l'nsl hours, and whohad solemnly promised to save hislife, discovered, iii nlakiiig nn autop-sy, that tho deceased had swallow-
ed a noodle.'. The homicidal .steelhad pierced Us vitals; the portershivoivd wllli horror', and I lew, ' andwe wore of bn'e accord ill giving anhonorable sepulture to the dead birdwithout revealing to iny wife the hid-
den drama of which 'our eyes hadseen the fatal torminntibh.
I would not wish to raisean ill natural (suspicion to thedetrilnOnt of my neighbor) but Iflot it thenand in its reproductiontoday, the fault docs not seem se
grave that I should hesitate to tlo
so. From a certain Cinbarassincntof thts porter froin a testifying, Y. t.'. . .....ioatnor wnicn rcmameu attaelieel asan accusation td the corner of hisjacket, from his singular earnest-ness tet impress upon mo that ourblackbird iliad been buried in thegarden, I was as fatally induced tobelieve that the Hying sepulchre hudbeen himself, as if I had read itsepitaph on his stomach. Yes, because the defunct had been fat; worries had not destroyed its appetite,and up to tho very day when it hadtaken the somber resolution to commit suicide with a needle in its throat,unseen by my wife, it had eaten insects linel dainty Viands with theavidity of a bird of the host intention in Iho world. ,1 wished myselfmistaken, and I fenind a seir t of com

fort thereby, but I fear Hint, precisely because this was not a blackbird,it was not the most savory elf blackbirds.
fterwards, the Impression of thecatastrophe, having passed, I foundcourage to laugh and to write an epi-
taph, and lny soli' regret was that Iwas neit able to write it on the authentic sc)ulcher.

Oh heaven! thought I if she

While lib wad mounting to ourapartments, I thought: Tho dif

ebrated man: For charity, save myEvangeline! I was prbvonied by a
certain virile dignity which I wishedto guard till the last extremity.
The doctor visited lily wife, ho ex-
amined her tonguo, touched hcrpuUoasked ll'cr certain questions which
sho answered hesitatingly, and atcngth ho began to smile and saidthat it was nothing.
Is there really no danger? de-
manded I in a trembling Voice.
Kb, sir, at least not feir the mei
ment; and he drew me tei one side tosay to mo with a malicious air:
Give MaunniO tho news .yourself.
Is it as it should be?Perfectly so.
Instead of accompanying the phjsician to the head of the stairs as Iit j!had at first intended, I politely pushed
