The Hawaiian Princess
The Princess Kaiulaoi, of tlie ex-roy¬
al family of Hawaii, has made the fol
lowing pathetic appeal to the United
States government against the annexa¬
tion of the Sandwich Inlands to this
country.
The address was sent from London,
where tlie princess seems to be attend
ing school.
But the American people have no
■ sympathy for crowned heads, princesses,
or otiier alleged "royalty,
Tlie kingdom of Hawaii, therefore,
will have to give way before the march
of republican progress.
But here is the address of the alleged
princess :
To the American People:
Four ynars ago, at the request of
Thurston, then Hawaiian Cabinet Min¬
ister, I was sent away to England to be
educated privately and fitted for the po¬
sition, which, by the constitution ot Ha¬
waii, I was to inherit. For all these
years I have patiently and in exile striv¬
en to fit myself for my return this year
to my native country. I am now told
that Thurston is in Washington asking
you to take away my flag and my
throne. No one tells me even this, of¬
ficially. Have I done anything wrong
that this wrong should be done me and
my people? I am coming to Washing¬
ton to plead for my throne, my nation
and my flag. Will not tlie great Ameri
i can people hear me ?

A Beautiful Tribute.
Rev. W. J. Scoff, of Atlanta, recently
delivered a lecture at the First Metho
dist church in that city, ou the ‘ Cam
paign of 1860.
He is one of the most scholarly gen¬
tlemen in the country, awd his lectures
and magazine articles are almost incom¬
parable in their originality oi thought
and charming rhetoric.
In his recent lecture on the “Cam
paign of I 860 ” he pays the following de¬
served and beautiful tribute to the glo¬
rious old state of Virginia, and her bril
liant galaxy of heroic sons:
“Were I worthy to speak a eulogy on
Virginia,” said lie, I would say of iter,
that iter record admits of no aspersion,
and therefore needs no vindication.
From tlie days of the Knights of the
Golden Horseshoe, she has been the
mirror of knighthood, Her chivalry
was like that, of the peerless Bayard, at
whose feet crouched a noble French
king on the eve oi the fateful battle of
Pavia, that he might, receive the insig¬
nia of knighthood front the accolade of
its noblest reprisentative. It was Her
Henry who started tlie ball of tlie
American revolution, it was Her Jeffer
son that drafted the declaration of inde
pendence, and her Washington that
made good tin t pledge on tlie historic
plains of York town, It wus her niunifi
cence that gave to tlie new born repub
lie that princely domain from which
was subsequently carved five of tlie
greatest states of tlie American union.
It was lier Marshal who was justly styl
ed the father of tlie national judiciary,
her Madison, surnamed tlie father of
tlie constitution, that secured the free¬
dom of the seas to American commerce,
despite Berlin and Millan decrees and
tlie British orders in council.
“Mother of states and presidents and
heroes, we hail you as the incarnation
of every civic virtue, and the embodi¬
ment of all that is most illustrious in
the annals of war. Although for a sea
son despoiled and discrowned, thou wilt
yet have a resurrection day. Once more
thou wilt come to lhv rightful place in
the van of the sisterhood of American
states, no longer discordant and bellig¬
erent, but reconstructed according to
tlie ancient plan, ‘distinct as the bib
lows, but one as the sea. tt

Mr. Tom Cobb Jackson, son of Capt.
Harry Jackson, at Atlanta, committed
suicide on Thursday evening, by shoot¬

tional that ever occurred in the state.
Various conjectures are advanced as to
the cause, but nothing certain is known
as to why he committed the terrible
deed.
The Star wishes to cal! attention to

ever. Therefore, if you want real bar
gains in furniture, now is the time to
get them. Baby carriages a specialty.
Don’t forget the place—77 Whitehall
