One Of the greatest attractions was
waterfall, about three hundred yards up the
river. 1t needed not The leats done there
to make the fall OF the Wailuka or River
Of Destruction worth looking at. The nv
err ran for some hundred yards or SO IN ra-
pids, over rocks and stones, the banks, crag
and precipice, two hundred feet high, whose
rudeness was softened and refined by ten
drills and creepers, that hung down TO the
foaming water, which ill-naluredly jerked
them as it rushed by. A huge rock dIvl-
ded the stream, one half Of which dashed
pelulently Oh, and met noisy fate down
the fall; while the other, Of milder, gent.
Ter nature, ran along a channel oil solid
rock, and fell in one heavy stream depth
of about twenty-five feet, joining the rough
waters below. A little turmoil succeeded
the junction; then they flowed quietly on.
like brothers, arm-in-am, I'LL they fell
again, and soon were lost in the salt waters
Of the ocean.
The great delight Of the natives is to go
do xn this fall. They sit in the channel
have described; they utter shout, scream
Of Joy, Join the hands gracefully over the
head, and, one after another, the girls oil
Hilo descend, emerging like sea-nymPhs in
the eddy below. The figure, as it CLEANS
for an instant in the body Of water, appears
to those standing below quite perfect; and
the gay shouts and laughing taunt to fol-
low, has led to the death Of many; for there
IS some secret current that not only browns
but carries away the body too. The fea
was attempted by three Of our men; bu
none, think, did it twice.
| The descent Of the lower fall is lesser
feat, and the sensation of going down i
head foremost delightful; even that, how
ever, is often fatal; and during our stay
here, man was loss merely through ma
king false step from the bank. The sur
prising agility Of the women especially BAT
fes description. One will sit by your side
on the high bank, ard remain so till you
throw a stone into the water with all you
force; then down she jumps, straight as ar
arrow, her feet crossed one over the insteE
Of the other, and emerges with a laugh
holding up the stone. On first attempting
TO rise to the surface after going down the
fall, the water seems, from the force Of the
current, to be matted overhead, and it i,
only by striking out into the eddy that yor
cen rise; this the girls manage TO perfection
They kick out their feet both together, anC
replaiting their hair with their hands, they
float about the edge with a grace that il

and blue, not cold, frosty, halfthawed.-
As lazily one watched the stream, dowr
dropped from the lodges overhead, and Gu

How Richter bore his Poverty.

sThe darkest period OF our nero me woe
when he fed from Leipsic and went down
in disguise 10 Hof. The lawsuit had striP-
ped his mother Of the little property she IN
heri,ed from the cloth weaver. and she lad
been obliged to part with the respectable
homestead where the honest man had car
RED on his labors. She was now living
with ore or more Of Paul's brothers, in
small tenement, containing but one apart
ment, where cooking. washing. cleaning,
spinning, and all the beehive labors OF do
mestic life must go on together.
"To this small and overcrowded apart
ment, which hencelorlh must be Paul only
study, he brought his twelve volumes Of e1-
tracts, head that in itself contained Il
brary, a tender and sympaihising heart a
true, high-minded, selfsustaining spirit
His exact situation was this The success
of the first and second volumes OF bis
Greenland Lawsuits had encouraged him
to write a third-a volume Of satires, under
the singular name Of Selections from the
papers of the deuil,' but for this We have
seen he had strained every nerve in him to
find a publisher. This manuscript. there
fore, formed part Of the little luggage which
his friend Oerthel had Struggled out Of
Leipsic. Ii was winter, and from his win
dow he looked out upon the cold, empty,
frozen street Of the little city Of Hoff, or he
was obliged to be a prisoner, without, as he
says, the prisoners fare Of bread and wa
ter, for he had only the latter; and if gull
den found its way into the house, the jubi-
lee was such, that the windows were nearly
broken with JOY At the same time he was
under the ban Of his costume martyrdom;
this he could have laughed at and reformed;
but hunger and thirst were actual evils, and
when Of prisoners food he had only the
thinner part, be could well exclaim, as Car
lyle has said
might il must be e'er Friedlend's stat
will BEAM Without was no help, nc
counsel, but there lay giant force within
and so from the depths Of that sorrow anc
abasement. his better soul rose purified and
invincible, like Hercules from his long la
bors.
"'What is poverty he said at this time
that a man should whine under it Ii i;
but like the pain Of piercing the ears Of
maiden, and you hang precious jewels in
the wound. Life of Richter.
