INTERNATIONAL LIBERAL LEAGUE.

A meeting of the International Liberal League was held at Robinson Hall laBt eveninef. The President T -ĪK' W. Wileox, being absent in Koolau. Wolter preBwled. Mr. Huntsman being cal?ed upon for a speecn said he would repeat somethiog he had eaid lately on another oeeaaion. We have a party organization, etc. here and expeeted to beat somebndy, but we don't know just who yet. There are two parties in the field. the Government and the Opposite. There wiil not be mueh doubt in the minds of the voters whieh party io vote for. We can*t go on as we are now, from bad to worse. Something must be done; trade is depressed; the Government party wish to do nothing; the Queen is on the throne and Wilaon is Marshal; many others are occupying lucrative Government posjtions and are satisfied. We on the outside are not satisfied. The Governme'»t partv propose to import more Asiatics and drive the white man out altogether. Vou must take ch re of it yourselves,and you ean do it itif yon will. Some object to untried men. they are afraid of the BushWilcux crowd. But it is better to try an experiment than to go on as now Try the Libera-'s; thēy 'will do sornething at any rate.

They have t i>fwed themselves treacherous to the people, faithful onlv to their own interest. I don't wish to say, anything against mechanics; they are the bone and sinew of the eountry, but the men Hp hy sold the party. lam not a great; lovre of the natives. I don r t wish | togivethem any virtues they haven't got. They have a great manyfaults but their interests are the same as those of the poor white men,.— the poor white trash here. I)o we wisb to maintain the present government ? No ! We want a new eonstitution, a ehanee from top to bottom. Many Hawaiians believe a king or queen is necessary to representhem. But they begin to see that the sovereign thinks very lit tle of their rights and a great deal of her own, Our gracious Queen has failed in securing the favor of her people.
