sun, the bright line flashes ont, sometimes
overlapping both the spectrum of the sun and
that OF the atmosphere, at other times entirely
within, and then again at some distance be-
yond, the edge Of the sun; these variations
depending of course on the form aud po ,itiOn
of the prominence, and affordiDg, as both NJ.
Jansen and Mr.. Lockyer at once pointed ont,
the means of tracing an actual outline OF the
prominence observed. Whenever, therefore,
q bright line is seep IL shows itself superm-
posed upon the actual solar scale, and auy
error in assigning its position would bs incon-
eeivable. Where the line actually corresponds
TO dark line it appears sometimes as striking
out the black line from the bright solar spec
trum, at others as proloDging it with line Of
light Both these appearances were strikiugly
exhibited with the line G, when we had the
privilege of observing the spectrum through
Mr.. Lockyer's instrument; and the eXtreme
clearness with which the line ID came out dis
posed in q moment Of the idea, apparently
entertained by some of the observers in
India that the two were identical. Whatever
this bright line may be, it is certainly not a
sodium line. AT present it is not certain that
all the lines of the new spectrum have been
fixed, and it is just conceivable that one pro-
minence might be wanting in line disclosed
by another at a different region Of the sun.
But there seems reason to believe that the
three lines already established form, at any
rate, the principal part of the spectrum, and
that these were the three lines in fact seen by
most of the Observers although their positions
are SO differently estimated.

The Jananese Coolies.

The Honolulu OmmercidL AdUert ser has the
following account OF the Japansce laborers
who have recently arrived at the Sandwich
Islands,
They appear to have been engaged in nearly
the same manner as previous shipments Of
Chinese coolies, under an engagement made in
Japan to serve here three years, and then to
be returned to their native country, if they
so elect. That the terms on which they were
engaged and the treatment guaranteed to
them constitute the mildest aud least Offensive
coOlie system known cannot be gainsaid, at
least so fair as the details have transpired
But II this first importation is a fair specimen
of what may be expected hereafter, the expe-
rience of the planters is not in their favor.
Most of these Japanese have been found far
inferior both to Chinese and Hawaiians as
field laborers, while the proportion who are
off duty, disabled from various causes, is un-
usually large.
1t has been found that many of them are
nearly worthless as laborers some are badly
diseased, while most OF them are vicious,
sensual, and debauched in the extreme. II
the reports which come to us are reliable,
they are the most debased creatures ia ex-
istence-a race of sodomites. No father
Hawaiian or foreigner-can allow them in
contact with his children or his family, without
risk of contamination hardly less to be dreaded
than leprosy.
The experience of those who have employed
them-but especially of planters--is not favor
able, and the propriety Of introducing an ele-
ment of such devasement as a foundation for
the social and physical development of these
islands Is questionable. When the facts come
to be known, the voice Of the nation will be
uttered against 1t.
