This gentleman is, however, very indignant with the Hawaiian Government, and refuses to accept the answer, because of the form in which, it reached him. It seems that it was given to the afternoon papers at the same time it was sent to him, and that he actually read it in the Hawaiian newspapers before the official document reached him. He says he shall not regard this as an answer, but will renew his demands for a money recompense, and will keep on renewing them until Hawaii agrees, or gives a good reason for refusing. Should Hawaii refuse, he declares that he shall leave the islands, and, returning to Japan, cut off all diplomatic relations with the Sandwich Islands. If he is driven to this action, he declares that there is only one course open to his Government; and he darkly hints that this will be to declare war. * * * * * Great preparations are being made in London for the celebration of Queen Victoria's Jubilee. On the 20th of June she will have reigned sixty years, and the event will be marked by parades and processions and festivities of all kinds. All the colonies of Great Britain have sent over soldiers and important people to take part in the affair, and all the nations of the world are sending representatives. There will be kings and princes by the dozen, and great men of all races and shades of color. With the city filling with strangers, come from all parts of the earth to do honor to the Queen, it has caused a good deal of surprise and pain that Ireland should come to the front as the one nation that will not join in the general festivities. A resolution has been passed by the Irish party in Parliament, declaring that it is impossible for them to take part in the Jubilee. The Irish party declares that these rejoicings are not to celebrate the many private and public good deeds of Her Majesty the Queen, but the triumph and prosperity of her government, and that, as Ireland has not shared in the prosperity, Irishmen do not feel called upon to rejoice. They say that for the sixty years of the Queen's reign, while liberty of thought, speech, and action has been given to all the other nations under the English rule, Ireland has been governed against her will and deprived of her freedom. They declare that Ireland's population has been reduced one-half, while Great Britain's has been doubled, and that their country has been loaded down with taxes heavier than it could bear. [**Transcriber's Note: heaver changed to heavier] Under these circumstances they find it impossible to take part in the rejoicings. * * * * * There has been another disappointment in connection with the Jubilee. One of the great princes of Hindustan, the Nizam of Hyderabad, possessed a very wonderful diamond, called the "great white diamond," which it was his intention to present to the Queen during the celebrations. This diamond was the largest known brilliant in the world.
