a.pss In Chickens.

- A correspondence the Delaware County
Republicoe, recommends the following pro-
cess for curing chickens OF this disease,
which is caused by slender red worms i9 the
fowls windpipes We give il for what it Is
worth - q ~ a s,.,lDGYsN > y A.
For performing the operation take three
hairs from the tail oil a horse---you can per
form the operation with one, but three will
do the work much more eftectually. Take
each hair, twist it singly and ,doubleit; after
having done SO. place them Altogether and
tie a Knot on the loose ends, ieaving them
about seven or eight inches long be careful
and have them all about tile same length
from the knot. Inpesforning the operation
hold the chicken fast between the knees by
the feet with the fingers open the bill. catch
the tongue, pull II out little, and hold it
firmly against the lower part of the bill,
with the thumb nail Of the sleft hand In
operating catch the hair thus prepared, near
the lower end, or the opposite end from the
knot, and pull the neck out straight. The
chicken in breathing will open thewindIiipe;
with some trouble, perhaps at first, you can
then insert the hairs AZ far as they will so,
perhaps four Or five inches, or in pro-
(, portion to the size of the, chicken.
After doing this, twist the hairs round q
9 upmDerO oil Times DetWeen the tnunlb anu foTt
finger of the right hand still holding thu
70 chickenin the same position, carefully with
draw the hairs, slowly twisting them round
= as you do so,you will very often find some o
the worms, or portions of them, sticking tt
. the hair when thus removed, though not al
ways, looking like coagllaied blood repea
the same operation sevreal times; in clos
ing it, with the feet of the chicken still fas
between the knees, insert the hair again, am
turn the head downwarSl twisting the hai
around, with the head in that position, yo
will find the chicken in breathing throw on
: the worms, lieut. up by the twisting OF I'll
hair in the windpipe, looking very muc
like clothed blood. At first some difficult
will be found in inserting the hair into III
wmdpipc, but after trying it upon q, few
can easily be accomplished. The hairs thu
prepared can DO used the whole season, an
AFTER being used few times work much bel
ter from sticking together. sssyi .s,3s.,i.-
In conclusion, permit me again to assur
your readers, that any one willing to try
can cure almost every one operated upor

this date the matter is still in abeyanee as To who
must pay his expenses.
The expense of the Asylum for 1867 was
81 ,4l0, 20, and for the two years past, SIT AZ 10.
The amount received from private patients for
1867 was 81, 01S p, and tise report estimates that
the monthly requirements will be covered with an
appropriation of$527 ,G7, or S6332.O4 per annum.
1t is suggested that Il house be secured for the
purpose of quarantining persons arriving from for
eign ports affected with contagious diseases, and
Summers house on the reef is named as a proper
place. 1t is so seldom that any c~ontagion arrives
here that it would appear an unnecessary expense
to hire or keep up n permanent establishment for
this purpose, wien a suitable place can SO easily
be secured whenever necessity calls for it. Would
not n thatch house on or near Diamond Point be
better, healthier and more desirable choice?
The report closes with a statement of the births
and deaths for the the two years ending Dec. 1867,
as follows:
births $50
Total Births $3.50
Deaths 1850
Total Deaths 55i7
Excess of deaths over births in two years....... aOs7
The last census was taken in Dec. 1866. If we
deduct the excess of deaths in 1867 from the
whole population as reported in the census, it gives
the following result
Population, according to census of 1850. 62s5s
Excess of deaths over births in S6T....----...... $50
Population January J., ls6S
This is probably very nearly the correct data
regarding our present ropulation-in round num-
bers it is $4,000.

NOTES OF TIE WEEK.

THE CONCERT, on Thursday evening at Kaumaka-
pill church was well attended, and the performances
were fully up to expectation. The choir consists of
thirty-two persons, fifteen females and seventeen
males, under the leadership of Mr.. Peter kalaikini.
Miss Emma Smith has had the general direction, care
and responsibility of the concert, and certainly de-
serves credit for the taste displayed, and the order
and discipline maintained throughout. 1t is no easy
thing to teach natives to sing English to perfection, to
come on and leave the stage with the precision of
well-lrilled soldiers, and to observe n degree of deco
rum while singing that elicits the unqualified admira-
ton of all. The nature of the performances can be
best gathered from the publication of the programme,
which consists of sixteen pieces, as follows:

All these pieces, except the piano Duet, were per-
formed by natives. The chorus -4utumn Winds and
Larboard Vafch were the most admired. The former
was very prettily executed. The piano Duet, per-
found by DIR. Hoffman, and Miss Emma Smith, was
a masterpiece, which it would be difficult to surpass
in larger and older cities. Altogether the concert was
n success, and n treat to al who attended it. The re-
ceipts were about $500, which seems a small sum for
so well-hled n house. Compared with the previous
concerts in the same place, which were both well at
tended, there is not much difference that in January
realized $685., and the one in December only STA.
The proceeds are for the benefit of the kau people.
IT Next Friday, May 18th. the Choir of the
Fort Street Church. assisted by some of their friends,
will give a concert for the benefit Of their organ
fund. The programme will consist mainly of vocal
music. embracing fine chOruses. duets. quartettes
and solos, which We feel assured will be a rare
treat to our lovers of good music, as the Choir and
their able assistants have spared no pains in their
endeavors to make this concert one of special merit.
1t will be remembered that the erst concert given
in aid Of this fund was last year. followed by two
tableaux entertainments in the fall. all of which
gave general satisfaction to the public. and realized
for the fund the sum of 81 900. The organ is now
being bnilt by Messrs. Simmons Il Co. of Boston,
and is expected to arrive here in the fall. The con-
cert will be held at the Kaumakapili Church. which
has been generously rendered for that purpo-e ; and
notwithstanding the liberal support bestowed upon
the two concerts recently given In aid of the hau
we feel confident this will be patronized
in the same willing and liberal manner. and We an
ticipate for the patrons n rich evenings entertain
ment. The programme will be printed early in the
depets-
