We give, for the benefit Of our intel
gent readers, extracts from the Agrl-
cultural report for 1862:
COMPARATIVE PROFIT ~ BOrrtR-
MAKING.
There are four ways of disposing OF
milk-for butter, cheese, condensed
milk, and milk for family 81 In the
form Of condensed milk, at prices hith-
erto obtained, its market value IS high
est,as q quart Of milk, reduced to one
fourth its bulk in the vacuum pan,
Yields u little more than halfa pound
IN weight, and realizes fifteen cents, at
the rate of s. 80 per dozen for pound
cans, one-third Of which should he al
lowed for cans and manufacturing,
leaving ten cents per quart for milk.
The comparative profit of butter and
cheese depends upon the prices, which
fiuctuate with the changes IN both the
local and general demand. AS prices
have ruled of late, it is believed that
butter pays better than cheese. At hf-
teen cents for cheese, requiring fully
four and a half quarts Of milk to make
a pound, and IS cents for butter, re-
qulring eleven quarts, the product, ex.
elusive Of cost Of making, would yield
four cents per quart in cheese, and foul
and a half in butter. Mr.. \. A. vii
lard figures a still better result for the
butter and skim cheese factories, WHERE
all the products Of the milk are utilized
Hi statement Of the yield Of fourteen
quarts of milk by this method, as COM
pared with cheese-making, may be ar
ranged as follows:

As compared with the sale of milk,
butter at 30 cents, or even at 10, yields
a better net return, unless the market
for milk is accessible and the dealers
are willing to accept fair profits. This
conclusion has been arrived ct in the
experience of many dairymen. At o
recent meeting of the Farmers Club at
Brandywine Hundred, Delaware, the
question was decided in favor Of a but
ter dairy by a vote Of u to :. State
ments Of cash proceeds showed a range
Of $96 to $3.50 for each COW per annum
fOf butter. The great increases cheese.
making from one hundred and three
millions of pounds in 1889, to the esti-
mated product in 1859, of two hundred
and forty millions, while the butter
: manufacture has only advanced from
four hundred and sixty millions In
1859 to an assured product of seve::
hundred millions in 1869, has tended to
q comparative scarcity of butter. Not
only has the foreign demand for our
products decreased, but the home de-
mand has increased much faster than
the population. The home consump-
ton of cheese is probably three times
as large as in 1850, in the aggregate
the average consumed by each individ-
ual was then about two pounds, while
now 1t is five.
The finest opening for profit in the
conversion OF milk is found in the man
ufacture of a superior quality of butter,
like the philadelphia print" which
will bring 70 cents to a dollar per b.
when furnished in all its freshness anC
poetry to approaching customers, able
to pay for it, while a fair article of tut
butter is selling at thirty-five to fifty
cents. There is a larger demand fol
such an article than butter-makers i'm.
agine, and the demand will be quick.
ened by an increase in the supply.
1t is practicable for producers of but
ter in the United States to increase it
average price ten cents per pound, ant
this enhancement would put in theiI
purses seventy millions ofdollars! Thi!
is too large q sum to pay for ignorance
~carelessness, aud lack of cleanliness
This increase of profit is the more no
ticeable, as it is fair to assume that one
half the butter at present produced i
so poor as to yield no real profit in it
production.

The proposed Pacific cable TO connect San
Francisco with China is not a myth after all, for
the new company have proceeded so far so as to
ask proposals for the manufacture of a telegraphic
table to be finished in eighteen months. The
laying of such a cable will necessitate the con-
s~truction of a line from Hongkong to Ceylon via
Singapore, which, with the overland line now in
use via Tartary to st. Petersburg, will make
ample communication % around the world"
The Strasbourg Cathedral is TO be restored.

Gold ore having been discovered in Madagascar,
the Government of the island has prohibited the

that if gold is found in remunerative quantities,

From Tahiti.

By the arrival on Thursday last, of the French
gun-boat Hamein, IA days from Papeete, we
have the Messenger de Tahiti of the Sd ult. On
the LIST, Commander Truxton and officers of the
U. S. s.. jamestown, which arrived on the Goth,
were entertained by the military circle of Papeete.
The gardens and saloons were brilliantly illumi-
mated and tastefully decorated for the occasion.
All the officers stationed at Tahiti, and a number
Of invited guests were present at the reunion,
which was presided over by the chief officer of
the Colony.
At 81 o'clock the Commissioner Commandante
of the Republic, and the Commander of the
Jamestown, entered the saloon. The Commits
sioner warmly welcomed Commander Truxton,
and mentioned the fact as an agreeable one, that
the first vessel of war to arrive at Tahiti since
the events which had recently transpired in Paris,
was an American it was the Government of the
Union too which had promptly and spontaneously
acknowledged the Republic in France. We, he
continued, do but echo the sentiments manifested
in Paris, in front of the Legation of the United
States. The Commandante then gave the health
of Commander Truxton and his officers, ending
with NiUe la RePubhque! which was received
with cheers. The Commander of the jamestown
returned thanks for the cordial reception extended;
to the hazards of navigation it was due that he
enjoyed this pleasant reunion. The American
Government in acknowledging the French Re-
public, spoke the sentiments of the American
people, who for many years had earnestly watched
events in Europe, and more particularly in
France. Their sympathies were always with that
nation from which proceeded the arts of civiliza-
ton and progress.
The Treasurer of the Colony and the Com
mandante of the French transport SOmme, made
eloquent speeches the latter alluded to the ira
ditional friendship between France and the United
States since the days when Lafayette and Roc
hambeau fought for American freedom on the
battle-felds Of Virginia. Americans can never
forget the France of 1776.
The grand toast Of the evening was "The fra
ternity of the flags of France and America, the
union of the two great liberal and enlightened
nations-mistresses of their own destinies." Pat
triotic French and American songs were sung,
and, says the Messenger. g the champagne flowed
In abundant streams" The occasion was one of
great enjoyment to all. .re-I5 oe9A
One hundred and Eorty-four bales of cotton had
been exported from Papeete in November.
The French residents appear to be quite en-
thusiastic on the subject of the new Republic. A
public procession, followed by a grand suhscrip-
ton banquet was to take place on the 18th of
December. r-
The reports of proceedings in Court, IN probate
matters between natives, take up most OF the
space of the papers.

The fitness of Things.

: Mr.. EDIToR| have in the course Of my reading
frequently run across the phrase that stands above.
Sometimes it is" The Eternal Fitness of Things"
but I wish at present to say a few words about the
temporal fitness of things. What 1 understand by
those words is that, in the words of an old proyerb,
there should be a place for everything and everything
In its place. When this rule is fully carried out,
then the fitness of things appears, and q pleasing
sense of order and propriety arises in the mind. But
the lover of order experiences a dssgreeable feeling
of uaftness, when he sees things out of place the
tea-kettle and ~6re-tongs for instance on the parlor
table. or o blue and gold bound volume of poems in
the kitchen cupboard. So, too, with men the mo-
ment they undertake to step out of their proper
sphere and NEEDLE in matters altogether foreign to
their legitimate business and station, all their fussing
and tuning only reminds you of the tea-kettle on the
psrlor table. They attract attention and remark, as
having violated the law of the fitness of things. We
see q good deal Of this in Honolulu, q city in which,
Gas I have heard it said) there is to be found q good
many people who pay more attention to other folks
business than to their own. But looking into the
Supreme Court a day or two since, I saw what 1 lin
my Ignorance perhaps) thought was an incongruity.
I saw His Majesy's Minister of Foreign Affairs,
knight Grand Cross of Kamehameha, &C., Sc, &C.,
acting as lawyer in what appeared to be an ordinary
trespass case 1t naturally enough struck me as q
strange departure from the fitness of things, that a
high Minister of the Crown should step out of his
exalted position to act as counsel in a sheep trespass
case. Any body might suppose he would have felt
sheepish, but he did not look 90. But on inouiring
of a by-stander I was informed that the sheep were
of foreign breed,-French, he said-from the farm of
the ex-Emperor at Rambully-I think that's the
name-and that was probably the reason why the
Foreign Office took Q hand in the case. Is that 30,
Mr.. Editor?
But on coming away. another person who appeared
to be well posted, informed me that His Excellency
was acting as wet-nurse to a young ~aspirant of the
Hawaiian bar. So that after all, I don't know
| whether it is sheep or lamb. Yours Owns.

BENEVOLENT ScHEMK-InT Tennessee, the Masonic

care of the widows and orphans OF deceased broth

the State, a thousand or more acres OF land are 10

be cut up into small lots Of one OF two acres, with
a small cottage on each lot, A portion Of the land
will be reserved for a school house and church,
thus making the locality a sort Of community by
itself. In most cases there will be children old
enough to care for the land raising vegetables
and fruit for the market and any de6ciency OF
food and raiment will be supplied from the benevo-
lent fund Of the grand division The seveuty-two

French emigrants were journeying up the Mis-

runaway, when the emigrantS, struck by the
advantages of the location, halted and formed the
