The Sandwich Islands-Climate, Produc-
tions, Prices and Advantages.
lcorespondence Of tLe n. Y. Evening POSI-

lCOrespoudenee Of the y. Y. Evening POST
WASHINGTON, June -, 1869.
The Sandwich Islands are now about two week.
distant from New York city. You can cross the
continent in seven days and in seven or eight
more = good steamer will take you to the islands.
The famous lands discovered by Captain Cook
ninety years ago, are places for a short and
pleasant excursion. You can readily visit the
/" Sandwichers,' - and laugh mt the fctions about
the &. Cannibal Islands" which have amused you.
The tourist will find there lovely and beautiful
retreats; and the emigrant will find healthy
homes and fruitful lands.
The arabic soil of the islands is q rich mellow
loan, one acre of which, well titled, will produce
any of these crops:
1000 pounds No. ! sugar, besides molasses and run.
1000 pounds huiled coffee Of superior quality.
100 pounds clean long staple cotton.
1000 pounds leaf tobacco.
400 pounds golden seed Carolina rice.
90 bushels sd or ! ' goo POgDS. wheat 1s
30 bushels or 1900 pounds oats
90 barrels or 5000 pounds sweet potatoes
I'D barrels or 5000 pounds common potatoes
$50 barrels or 1900 pounds tapioca, or maniOc.
5000 cccoanuts.
1900 lunches of bananas
The land produces also many other fruits, roots
and grain:
Figs, best Turkish varieties.
Papaws, or papayas, very plentiful.
Tamarinds, very abundant.
Water lemons, or grenadillas, run wild.
Mangoes litter the ground.
The delicious bread fruit.
Alligator pears grow finely also the
Chirimoya. The custard apple.
The rose apple. The peach.
Pineapples plentiful as turnips here.
Strawberries wild on every mountain.
POhas, or Cape gooseberrics, very plentiful.
OhelOs, n species of whortleberry.
Popolos, like elderberrics, nice and plenty.
Ohias, the island apples, rather insipid.
Tomatoes grow wild so do t~urnips.
Radishes very large. and good to eat.
Cabbages and cauliflowers grow very finely.
Lettuce, spinach and other garden vegetables
do well.
Nasturtiums, ~salyias, eupherbias, many yarie-
ties Of gardenias, and other cultivated plants at
home, have become wild in the islands and
sparkle in every valley and glen, and fill the land
with fragrance.
The lambs quarter. n little weed at home,
become a respectable little tree twelve or fifteen
high. 1t is an excellent vegetable to eat.
There - 50 much to eat that is wild in the
Stands: there are yams, the pala, and other
EXCELLENT roots in the mountains, and plentiful
and such an abundance of produce Of
Inc sea, shell fish, crabs, shrimps, &c, on the
,oast, there IL not n pauper in the Sandwich
Stands, and no excuse for one-subsistence is 80
and cheap, and clothing is not 50 indis-
Densablc rs elsewhere.
THE AREA.
The surface Of the islands is small-only about
our million acres but every foot is OF value.
md thus distributed among the eight inhabited
stands

Ramie.

The Commissioner of Agriculture has said that
the hbre OF the rnmie has proved too brittle for
general fabrics, among English manufactures.
On the other hand, the English house of Henry
Hughes, in San Francisco, has received advices
from Bradford, Yorkshire, that the workmen
there find That when ramie rs mixed with fine wool
it makes a Cloth of singular beauty and strength,
specimens OF which are sent, fully verifying the
statement. IN order for a ton Of China grass OF
ramie accompanies these adyices, and has been
forwarded to China. Half n ton of the seed has
also been ordered with a view to its cultivation i'm
California, 50 because your farmers cannot raise
too much of = and you can assure them that we
pay such n price as will reward them better than
cotton planting" Mr.. Hughes is daily expect
ing fresh samples of ramie wooden fabrics, which
will satisfy all inquirers.
The ramie is one Of several varieties of China
grass, and is selected for the superior strength
and hneness of its fibre. 1t is on this account
distinguished by the name OF BoehHvia tenacis-
sima. We have samples Of it raised in Louisiana,
and certainly the brittleness spoken of by the
Commissioner does not apply, for il is particularly
not brittle, but tough and strong fibred. We
remember reading Of the fret introduction of our
Southern cotton, when the same story was told
of It's brittleness- Presuming that there must be
some foundation for the report we conceive il
probable that, like some Chinese washermeu.
they may have made injudicious use or corrosive
bleaching agents, or that Ome other easily RENE
died treatment may have caused temporary COM
plants, as Is usual in all first experiences. But
we have n hundred witnesses to prove the beauty
and the extraordinary wearing quality of the sea-
grass coats we used to wear in the hot weather of
the Atlantic cities, and n the ramie is the most
tough fibre of all the China or sea-erasses. we
cannot doubt but that the Yorkshire manufacturer
Is the best guide for Us to follow.-AHa CaLfor-

THE SLAMEsE TwENs-Tbe following gossip con-
corning the Siamese Twins seems rather apochry-
phal, but as it Is on the authority OF that eminent
sayant, Mark TWAIN we hand il around for
the benefit of chronological science:
Chang belongs to the Good Templars, and Is n
hard working and enthusiastic supporter of all
Temperance reforms. But, TO his bitter distress.
every now and then Eng gets drunk, and, of
course, that makes Chang drunk too. This un-
fortunate thing has been u great sorrow to Chang.
Tor It almost destroys his usefulness in his fayoriie
field OF effort. As cure n he il % head a great
Temperance procession Eng ranges up alongside
OF him, prompt TO the minute and drunk rs n
lord; but yet no more d~isrnally and hopeless
drunk than his brother who has not
tasted a drop. And 50 the two begin to boot and
yell, and throw mud and bricks ut the Good
Tempiars and, Of course break up the procession.
IL would be manifestly wrong to punish Chang
for what Eng does, and, therefore, the Good
Templars accept the untoward situation, and
suffer IN silence and sOrTow. They have officially
and deliberately examined into the matter, and
lind Chang blamelezs They have taken the two
brothers and filed Chang full of warm water and
sugar and Eng fuIl of whiskey, and in twenty-five
minutes 1t was not possible to tell which was the
drunkest-

The house was not SO good as 1t ought to
have been on the opening night Of "Unclc
Toms Cabin" at the National. The play is
one of niue hdramatic power aud thrillingly
interesting throughout, and the persons con-
stituting the company are generally good in
their parts. George Kunkle, as Uncle Tom,
has correct conception of the character,
and his acting is natural, and pleasing be-
cause il Ia natural. Frank Foster person
atcs the worldly minded and generous 81.
Clair well. There cannot be a better Pbin-
cas- Fletcher than Sam Glenn, only VIC would
suggest less bolstcrous demonstrations at
times. Miss Lizzie Glenn's Eva Is a charm
ing piece of child-like acting and natural
ness which cannot fail to please. The beauty
of her acting Is that the child Is perfectly
sclf.polsCd and calmly serene throughout.
We conclude this notice by saying that
''Unclc Tom" should draw full houses at the
National every night, as nothing more worthy
has been presented there any time this season.
