and while he ddes deem it his duty to endeavor to restore her.to thie sovereign and constitutional government of the ixlands, his further efforts in that direction will depend ypon the Queen's unqualified agreement.that all obligations created by the Provisional Government, in a proper course of ministration, shall as.stnhued, and upon such pledges by her as will prevent the adoption of any measures of proscription or punishmeut, for what has been done in the past by those setting up or supporting the provisional government.\u201cThe President feels that by our original interference and what followed we have incurred responsibility to the whole Hawaiian community, and it would not be just to put one party at the mercy of the ether.Should the Queen ask the condition, active steps would be taken by the United States to effect her restora- The members of the delegation were | tion or to maintain her authority there- » after, you will say that the | _ PHBESIDENT CANNOT TSE FORCE ; without the authority of Congress.Should i thie Queen Eccept conditions, and the pro- | visional government refuse to surrender, | you will be governed by previous instrue- | tions (to await further urders).If the provisional government asks whether the United States will hold the Queen to the fulfilment of stipulated conditions, you dictates of honor and duty, as he has done in endeavoring to effect the restoration, will doall in his constitutional power to cause the observance of the conditions he has imposed.\u201d ' Now, as wis stated in lac Message as pb lished in the Stas, that the Queen will or has aot accepted the terms of Alr.Cleveland, great interest centres un the action of Congress in the matter now that iy has all information.required on the subject.Mr.Cieveland\u2019s message fairly bristles with good points.For instance he says: ** I believe that a candid and thorough examination of the facts will force the conviction that the provisional Government owes its existence to an armed invasion by the United States.Fairminded people with the evidence before them will hanlly claim that ithe Hawaiian Government was overthrown by the people of the iffands or that the provisional Gbvernment has ever exist- cd with their consent.1 do not understand that any member of this Government claims that people would uphold it by their sulfrages if they were allowed to vote on the question.\u2018While every effort to establish a republican form of government, it is {he settled policy of the United States to concede to le of foreign countries the same freedom and independence in the.MANAGEMENT OF TIEIR DOMESTIC AF- : FAIRS > that we have clways claimed for ourselves; nad it has been our practice to recognize revolutionary governments as soon as it became apparent that they were supported by the people.\u201d 2,» Again he says: \u201cThe law of\u201criations is fourided upon reason and justite, and the rules of conduct governing individual relations between citizens or subjetts of a civilized state are equaliy applicable as between enlightened nations.The considerations that international law is without a court for its enforcement, and that obedience to its commands practically depends upon good faith, instead of upon the \u2018mandate of a.superior tribunal, only give additional sanction to the law itself, and brand any deliberate infraction of it not merely as a wrong.but as a disgrace.A man of true honor protects the unwritten word which binds his conscience more scrupulously, if possible, than he does the bond a breach of which subjects him to legal liabilifies; and the United States in aiming to maintygin itself as one of the most enlightened of nations, would do its citizens gross injustice if it applied to its international relations any cther than a hi standard of honor and morality.On that ground the United States cannot pro; be put in the position of countenancing à wrong after its commission any more than in that of consenting to it in advance,\u201d ing Stevens, he says, among other things: \u2018But for the notorious predilection of the United States minister (Stevens) for i annexation, the Committee of Safety \u2014which { should be called the committee of annexa- tion\u2014would never have existed.But for the landing of the United States forces upon false pretexts respecting the danger to life and property the committee would never have exposed themselves .TO THE PAINS AND PENALTIES of son by undertaking the subversion of the Queen's frovernment.But for the presence of the United States forces in the immediate \"vicinity and In position to afford all need protection and support the committee would not have proclaimed the provisional government m the steps of the government building, and, finally, But for the lawless oc cupation of Honolulu under false pretexts by the United States forces, and but for Minister Stevens\" ition of the provisional government when the United States forces were its sole support and constituted its only military strength, the Queen and her govérnment would never have Jielded to the provisional govérnmen even for a time, and for the sole purpose of submitting her case to the enlightened Justice of the United States.\u201d How the Papers View it.NEw YORK, Docember 19.\u2014(Special.)\u2014 Regarding the Hawaiian message, the Sun (Tammany) says: Every few paragraphs of the Hawaiian message show the President's inherent and inextingumishable con- | tempt for the authority of Congress.He has been brought up with around turn in his secret pursuitof a policy of infamy.Con- press, by resolutions by both Hounes, manded to know what he has done, what he bus intended to do, and what he is still doing on his own responsibility in Hawaii.Mr.Cleveland affects to ignore the .mptory call of Congress.He prefaces.s message not, as is customary.straightforward statement of truth, nanie- ly, that it is submitted in consequence of and in obedience to the command of the Federal Legislature, but with the sneaking pretence that this message originated solely within his own volition, and is now written -it persusnce of the previously e: intention of transmitt ng further information on the subject when additional advices permit The Herald (Independent) says: Mr.Cleveland has a: to, Congress a t in whi he de- stronger\u2019 than thai picts the Hawalian revolution AS AN ANNEXATION CONSPIRACY \u2018which for flagrant abuse of authority of ,the United States has no in our diplomatic annalk.Nothing is more noticeable in this document than the renewed evidence it gives of Mr.Cleveland's unperformed his duty in a straightforward and upright fashion, which will discomfit hls cnemies.The Tribuns (Republican) says: No light.whatever is thrown | by this m on the pract em presen t Hawaiian comilioations.T dent lem.to devise such agreement with the provisional government of Hawaii as will afford to that country the substantial bene- Bts it has a right to expect from the al- | 4% whether;
