The Crown of Hungary.

"Careton,n of the Boston Journal, wit.
messed the coronation of the Emperor OF
Austria as King of Hungary, and thus des-
cribes the famous crown with which he was
| invested:
"Ihe Crown OF Hungary is regarded with
superstitous reverence and yeneration. 1t
is one of the oldest in Europe, having been
granted by Pope Sylvester H. in the year
1000 and hence called the holy and Apos.
tolic Crown 1t is looked upon as the EN-
blem OF nationality, and hence is regarded
| with Jealous care.
In ancient times the crown, the regalia,
the sword and mantle Of St. Stephen were
watched over by body ofveterans-a guard
| OF honor-who kept them carefully locked
in an iron chest, the two keys ofwhich were
conided in two grand dignitaries of the
| realm elected by the Diet. The circlet or
band which rests upon the forehead was
sent by the Greek Emperor Michael Ducas
to King Geysa, from Byzantium. The two
ribs of gold which span the top of the crown
are the workmanship of the angels.-so it
is said and so believed by the peasantry. 1t
has at various times been seized by usurpers
to the throne, been hidden for years, re-
moved to foreign countries, but recovered
to be regarded with increased generation.
"When Joseph H., son of Maria Theresa,
came to the throne of the Austrian Empire,
ne carried III TO vienna, n proceeding winch
came near producing an Instruction. The
Hungarians had saved The Empire from ruin
by the fiery patriotism WHICH granted all
that Mara Theresa had asked. and to be
robbed of their crown was too much for hui
man nature to bear. OF all the oppressive
measures of Joseph r., this was most deep
ly resented, and it has ranked in the hearts
of the llungarans to the present day.
SIN 1919 kossuth carried Off the crown
and caused it to be buried near Orsava,
when he saw that the independence of the
State was lost. 1t was recovered, and to-
day rests upon the brow Of the Emperor.
"With Americans the flag is the emblem
of nationality. There is nothing on earth
which will SO stir the heart Of an American
when in foreign land as sight oithat flag,
which is the emblem of the most advanced
government the world ever saw; but to the
hungarian there is nothing like the crown.
II is the emblem Of sovereignty.
'Ihcy rejoice to see it worn by the Empe
ror OF Austria to-day, not because he is En-
pcrOr, but because he is their King. They
are 4 nation separate and distinct from the
Empire, and their King has sworn to carry
on the laws Of the kingdom. Their indie.
pendence is recognised. Austria has not
swallowed thcm mp, They strew the En-.
peror' path with flowers because he has
yielded to their demands. Hence the en-
thusiasm of the hour, the gathering OF the
vast mutitudcs To participate in the festiv
ties of the occasion. The crown of the
Kingdom has triumphed over the crown OF
TIE Empire, and from hence forth it will be
still more IN object of VcncratiOn'

How lager Beer is Made.

There are two kinds of ''lager beer" one
for winter and the other for summer use.-
The former requires less brewing, and it is
ready for market as soon as made; the lat
ter must be stored away for many months
in cool places before it becomes delectabe

q cool winter is desirable. In the fall of the
year the malt is purchased, and stored away
until about the 1st of December. 1t is then
placed in large mash-tubs, and soaked for
some time in cold Watar. When sufficient.
ly soitcned and swelIed, warm water is add
ed, and the temperature Of the water in.
creased gradually until the whole mass is
almost boiling. This process extracts all
the saccharine matter from the malt, leav.
ing OF the grain nothing but the "hull. -
This liquid is called wWt. The liquor is
drawn off from tho mash tubs into huge
kettles. Hops are added. and the seethng
mass is kept boiling for two hours. 1t is
then carried into immense sheet, iron pans,
termed "coolcrs.' to the depth of two or
three inches, windows and doors are thrown
wide open, ana soon the drafts Of wind cool
the liquid. 1t is then drawn oil into huge
fermenting tubs, where n little yeast is add
ed TO facilitate the fermentation. Here the
beer remains from six TO twelve days, ac
cording TO the Temperature Of the atmos.

| The beer then, IN It's purified state, is drawn
into large tanks, holding from twenty to
thirty barrels, and stored away in immense
! cellars for summer use. The process Of
manufacturing lager beer occupies about
one month, after which it requires to stand
about four months before it is ready ior use.
The Winter beer is similarly made, hut it

not need to stand so long before use

A YEAR APART.
BY EMMA ALICE BROWNE.

The tremulous sound of the rabbits tread,
The pheasant shrilly whistle,
The musical trill of the yellow bird
A.swinging on the nodding thistle;
The breezy stir of the redwood boughs
Above the clear spring olden;
The sweet may .thorns that drop their bloom
Star-like, on the waters golden
All bring the summers back again,
When our beautiful household blossoms
Were laid asleep, with the whispering grass
And the daisies on their bosoms.
Oh. never again the golden light
OF the July sunshine, falling, leaves
Rain like through the twnkling woodlan,
While the merry winds are calling,
Will awaken out of their lonely rest
The kirk yards quiet sleepers,
With blue eyes lost to the rising morns,
Under the willow weepers.
Twas such day rs this she died:
The river yapors golden
1hro' the dim air went out like dreams,
Mystical, angel holden
And Lillian said" A crimson cloud
Is passing Ser our dwelling
From the red East, to the sound Of harps
On far oil rivers swelling -
We knew the darling had to die,
And yet our hearts beat quiet
We even heard among the flowers
The sweet bees clamorous riot;
The little birds on sunlit wings
Dropped down among the vine leaves,
And peered with round, black, curious eyes
AS if to read onr heart grets.
The wild brook down the meadow land
Went on its silver straying,
But the children on the south hill side
Had hushel their noisy playing,
And came and stood around the bed
OF our dear, dying Lilly,
To hear the solemn words she said
About the "shadowy valley" .
They were too small to understand
Much of the wondrous story,
How shining, white robed Angels come
From the far lands of glory,
And take the tired children home,
1hro' the star gates of Heaven
Our Lily said her soul had seen
Where the white clouds were rivenl
A speador like rising moon
Within the room was shining,
1t touched with mystic light her face
And soft hairs silken twning;
Blue eyes uplifted, full of faith,
Frail hands together lying,
SO soft the waves of life and death
Met in our darling's dying!
Wee babe Grace, the household pet,
The brownlest, merrest rover,
Slipped with the sunshine thro' the door.
Her small hands full of clover
And daisies gathered on the void
For poor, sick sister Lily
She came, she said, to plant with flowers
The shadows Of that galley! =
All ! well, we made the narrow grave.
And smoothed the green turf over
And soon the lonely little bed
Was gay with crimson clover.
When summer came again with flowers
Knit in her tresses amber,
We wept above dying bed
In little Grace's chamber!
A cloud the sun might never gid
Went over our desoate dwelling,
And none could hear, if there ,rere harps,
For deaths black pillows swelling
We thought about two little graves,
The dim grass rankly springing,
We only heard death noisy waves,
And not the Angels snging b
Darllly the shadows went sweeping down
Where the clover croft was lying
Wofully, wofnlly fell the night
On babie Grace's dying
We made hers by the older grave
One year had sown with blossoms;
No more the small hands will uplft
From their untroubled bosoms.

THREE KINDS OF PEEAcHING.-Dr. Pond,
Of Bangor Theological Seminary, in his very
able and instructive address to the last grad.
uating class which has been recently pub
lished, speaks of three kinds of preaching.
He says: ~ have heard preaching com
pared to lightning, of which it is said there
aie three kinds-the flash, the zig2ag, and
the slant. The flash looks brilliantly lights
up the sky the people gaze at it with won
der and delight The zig-zag is here and
there and everywhere, darting from oloua 10
cloud without any apparent object or effect /;
but the slant sends its bolt down TO earth,
and rives the gnarled oak, and is mighty,
through God, to the tearing down of strong,
holds. BE sure, my brethren, if you deal
in any lightning, TO prefer the slant The
comparison Is not only apt, hgt tie lesson
TO be derived from it is certainly instructive.

BLACKBERRY WiNE.-A correspondent of
the Germantown Telegraph furnishes the
annexed receipt for making Blackberry
Wine, which is said to produce most ex.
cellent article:
"Mensure your berries and bruise them +;

hours, stirring occasionally; then strain oil
the liquor into n cask, TO every gallon add
ing two pounds Of sugar; cork tight, and LEI
stand till the following October, aud you will
have wine ready for uae, without farther
straining or boiling. This makes most
! excellent and palatable wine.'

.sTuREE BLACK CRows.''-A very unusual sight
for Honolulu was observed a few days ago. In ha-
pena's lot, just below the first bridge in Nuuanu
street. there was, and may still be, q poor half starved
horse just able to stand up-a veritable "croW-bait.'
One morning last week, about . O'Clock, " three black
crows were seen on his back, tearing his flesh with
their teaks as eagerly as vultures over n dead car
cass. These are the birds which were imported by
~. Agricultural Society, or the Board OF lmmlgra-
ton n 10Th, under the idea that they were only in
sectiverous. If there is any truth in the reports that
chickens and pigeons are destroyed by these crows
the Society had better vote a further sum to nd the
country Of the nuisance which has unfortunately
been brought here.

MAKAwAo PorAToEs.-We are indebted to MIR. A. /.
Zones for a sample from a few hundred barrels of
potatoes, grown by him and his sons at Makawao,
East Maui. In size they are equal to the best Hum
boLh potatoes, and in quality far superior to any
brought here. In Sact no finer potatoes can be wish
ell fox In the pioneer days Of California (18f9-52)
she relied chiefly on East Maui for her Irish potatoes,
and many IA schooner, brig and bark loaded at ka-
lepolepo with nothing but these esculents, which paid
the dealers in them enormous profits. vi late years
the cultivation Of them has been entirely neglected
there, but the present constant and Increasing de
mand for potatoes must render it a safe and profitable
business. If we may judge from the small and poor
potatoes which are brought here from kawaihae, the
fields in that neighborhood are about played outs
but so long as such superior vegetables can be grown
nj Makawao and Kula as these We are now eating,
they will find n remunerative market here. Mr..
Jones informs US that they can be readily kept all
the year at Nakawao, and delivered as the wants Of
tbe market call for. If this be so, there Is no neces-
sity for further importations.

THE GAME OF CRICKET.-We learn that a move
mept is on foot among the employees OF the Honolulu
Iron Works, TO organize a Cricket Club, which how
ever. is not to be exclusive, but members Will be
received from outside the Foundry. In the season OF
the year when the days are long, after four o'clock OF
a Saturday afternoon, would give ample time TO IN
dulge in athletic and exhilerating exercise. Holt
DAYS, too, could thushe spent in a far less expensive
and more respectable way than is too frequently the
case in this city. In the States they have their
Cricket Clubs, but the most popular game there just
now is Base Ball, and all the large cities have their
Base Ball Clubs. The lectures of such athletes as
DR.. winship and others, have awakened in that
country a great interest in gymnastics and hardy
out-of-doors education of the body.

The SsO{ep Watch,

One OF the best stories we remember re-
'crTinG to g stolen watch, comes from a
French source. IN the pit of the old
French opera, one Of the audience sudden
y discovered that his watch was gone
The evenings entertainment had not com
nenced, aud the owner of the property
mounted a bench, stated the loss. which
could not have occurred above two or
three minutes, and begged those around
him to remain perfectly quiet, as his watch
struck the hours like a clock, and, it then
being on the stroke cf seven, the watch
would speedily indicate into whose pos
session it had fallen. There vas q dead
silence but the eye of the proprietor de-
tected an individual who was trying to
edge away from the vicinity, and he i'm
mediately denounced the skulker at the
thief. The latter was seized, and the
watch vas found upon him, and as the
owner quietly put it into his pocket, he re-
marked, 'The watch does not strike the
hours, bat | thought my assertion hat it
Ill would enable me TO strike. ont the
thief"
"Uces your watch 60 veil?' asked a
bystander of the happy owner.

piled the latter.

ia Murder Every Bay,

The New York Sun sounds au alarm
over the Introduction among Us OF the
noiseless air gun, which, in a murderer:
hand, is capable of doing its work, in the
dark, without detection-as witness the
recent murder By that means in Brooklyn.
The editor says:
"In this city and Brooklyn there is an
average Of nearly one murder every day.
although every person who commits that
crime must know thar the lawful penalty is
almost sure 20 follow. But what would
be the consequence if robbery and revenge
were assured that murder could be accom-
plished without danger Of punishment 70
the murderer? 1t seems providential that
all Tie time and ingenuity which have been
expended in attempts to produce weapons
fer that purpose, have failed TO discover Z
safe instrument of murder. Weapons
have been made which approaches this OBJ
ject, but none have been successful. The
sand biudgeon, which, some years ago was
50 extensively used for nurderoUs purpos-
es IN Europe, and TO some extent In this
country, is a very dangerous weapon. y
blow upon the head with this instrument
produces almost instant death, and yet no
confusion or marks of external violence
is seen. The air gun, although not invent
Ell for the use of the assassin, is also a dan
gerous weapon, as .he recent murder in
Brooklyn, by such agency, clearly proves.
If this invention was brought 10 perfec-
;ion, 50 as to discharge a bullet without
any report, tue Consequence would be alarm
ing. Fortunately IT is not perfect. A.
though 1t emits comparatively little sound
when being discharged, that little is suffi-
cient 20 guard against its extensive use
Hundreds Of co. .civances have been made
for the purpose # taxing life and battling
detection, and probably efforts to hat end
are still made"
