Fiji Islands.

In the Fiji Islands, when the respected
father of q family becomes too old to fish OF
fight, his ailectionate sons inquire Z" II he
don't think ii time he should be buried p
After some thought he generally replies, that
us q conscientious, law-abiding citizen, he
cannot deny that 1t is, and then cnsnes a
cheerful conversation such rs this.
f" Well, father, when would you like the
funeral 2"
Um-let me sce-I can't be convenient
ly buried this week, my son, but next week
/ believe have no engagements"
" Then suppose we say Thursday"
Very good-yery good. But remember
my children, everything in the best STYLE"
Why father? Do you want to hurt one
feelings9" :,
And so, when Thursday comes, the friends
of the family assemble at the house, pro.
cession is formed, the old man walks at the
head, supported by his children, and oil pro-
ceed to the nearest FIJI cemetery.
"Ah is this the grave 2"
"Yes papa, and do you think 1t suits 2
Admirably admirably this is indeed a
most excellent tomb"
And oil the middle-aged fathers present
lift up their eyes, and pray that their sons
may be rs dutiful and kind. Then comes
the funeral service and lcavc-taking; the
old man gets down into his grave ; his sons
take their shoycls and cover him up, stamp
ing down his earthly quilt as aflectionately as

I have to say on the subject will spring from
experience.
About twenty-five years ago, set n man
20 chopping wood some time In the month oil
June, and il 50 happened that he only cut
one tree, a chestnut, about a foot in dame
ter, and split and piled the same. drew It
in the winter after, and it dried the best and
brightest of any wood ever cut. | have
cut some thousands Of cords since. There Is
one objection to cutting wood between the
time Of the sap having passed up into the
branches and back again into the roots. One
yelr, cut several cords early in September,
which has not sprouted until this day. while
wood cut on the same slope in winter sent up
sprouts five and six feet the hrst year alter
being cut.
MY method of managing woodland Is to
thin out all the small trees after they get to
be of considerable size, and leave the main
ones TO grow. BY this process | find the
timber makes very fast and when | cut clean
II there are any thrifty trees, | leave them
until the wood is ready TO cut again. BY
this procedure get large and tall timber
For instance, twenty or twenty-five years
ago, | left ON an acre thirty or forty chestnut
trees, from six to eight inches through and
they are now from fifty to seventy feet high,
and from twenty to thirty inches in diame-
ter.
Twcnty-one years ago, set about twenty
Eve rods Of board aud plst fence. cut the
posts and peeled them theyear before. set
the fence as soon rs they were perfectly dry,
the butt-ends all in the ground. The posts
were from six to eight inches in diameter,
and are nearly all standing now. The soil
where the fence was built Is gravel.

parations, and fear they may still further ex-
asperatc the South But Is it not the part
OF wisdom to arm and prepare for war, when
PEOPLE and States who declare us enemies ARE
arming, and have secured, and are securing
our public property?
Should the law-abiding, Union loving pso-
pie of the North be deferred from military
preparations because II is disagrceable to the
people of the South, who are already armed
and excited rs much as they can be?
Will not this preparation, end at q proper
time, the movement Of troops, convince the
hot-heads of the South that something moro
than threats will be requisite to make usgiyc
up possession Of Washington, and that they
will find soldering something more than a
holiday amusement?
Can it with propriety be called coercion to
defend our property and rights that are dear
to us ?-to defend the glorious old Flag Of
the Union that Is honored and respected in
every quarter Of the globe, and has 80 often
waved in triumph over our armies on land
and ocean?
am for maintaining our Government as II
is, guaranteeing to all what they are justly
entitled to under the Constitution, and in
turn exacting from all proper respect for,
and obedience TO-, the laws of the land. This
is the sentiment OF nine-tenths of the Democ-
racy, and all other parties In this State. i.

Tho Little Stone Cottage.

A two hours drive from tho city Of Bos-
ton, through ROxbury and thence into wcs-
terly direction, will bring you, if you have
taken the right road, to little stone cottage
at the foot Ot agged, picturesque hill,
around the base OF which stream of water
lies like silver girdle. The cottage is very
old-not less than forty years. The material
of which it Is built is rough hewn and jut-
ting; through you would need to put your
fingers among the vines aud break some OF
the teudrils in order TO ascertain the fact, 50

cism nv its trailing friends. A wall of we'll
worn boulders encloSes half acre or 50 OF
land about the dwelling, huge milestone
rests from the whirlings of is somewhat gid
DIV youth at the principal doOrsill, and the
wreck of heavy old cart lies stranded
against one OF the sides Of the enclosure,
around which grasses and briars crowd and
climb, as though they would smother the old
thing in their wiry. reaching embrace.
The cottage was built by young and in
cenious mechanic named Denton-Hugh
Denton. When il was quite finished, had
been pleasantly though frugally furnished,
and trimmed with,cedar and myrtle by Hugh $
sisters, his bride was lifted from her pillion

two years Of their welded life were beauti-
fully smooth and pleasant, full of fire-side
duties on the part ol the young wife. and OF
health giving labor on the part OF the young
husband. Comforts and conycnienclcs were
gradually ncreased in true New England
fashion, iutcrmixed with now and then n
