TEE BLIeHr.-The chief obstacle to the successful
production of coffee in this country has been the
blight which has rendered the once valuable and pro-
ductire coffee districts of Kona and Puma on Hawaii
almost valueless for that purpose Various sugges-
tions have been made as modes of destroying the
aphis which causes it, both on the coffee plant and
the orange tree Almost everything suggested has
been tried but with no success The cultivation of
coffee has been seriously checked and of the
valuable orange groves given up, after every effort had
been made to render the blighted trees productive
Years of industry and economy have in cases
been lost in attempts to produce these articles, and
the prosperity Of districts, the climate and soil
Of which are eminenty fitted for their production has
been seriously affected BY the presence of the blight.
The last remedy for blight which has been brought
to our notice is one which has in been
cessfully used in New Zealand. A gentleman who
was formerly resident of that colony writes from
Heensburg, Scotland that the crushed leaves Of the
Blue Gum, or Eucalyptus, sprinkled the top of
the plants or trees affected has been known entirely
remove the blight Our correspondent attributes this
result to the fact that there arestrong manifestations
of the presence of turpenne in the tree and leaves
the latter being highly aromatic. Whether the of
the leaves of the Eucalyptus (some specimens of
which are growing in Honolulu) can be made avail
able here is question; but if, as correspondent
suggests, the cause of the efficacy Of the lcafin de-
sroyipg the aphis is the presence of turpentine,
should imagine that the judicious of turpentine
itself would have the same result. We would like to
see The experiment tried, if it has not already been,
and without effect.

man and his wife recently in holy Land.

widow. .Bu,ning in England. .

A death lately occurred in Brighton
England, Of character heretofore uu-
known on English soil q a woman i'm
molated herself upon the altar of afec.
ton for her deceased husband, under
the most peculiar circumstances.
Moses Spinemaun, a very wealthy mer-
chant, during his many mercantile ex-
peditions visited Malabar Here he fell
in love with native woman and mar
ried her in the presence of the British
Consul. At the end Of six months after
the marriage he took his wife TO Eng
land and into his home at Brighton.
The young wife clung to all the customs
OF her native land, and refused most per
sistently to'be converted to the English
Church.. She had "a kind of temple
built on her husbands estate in the
country and went into it every day to
offer up her devotions according to the
rites of her own faith. AT length her hus-
band died. The widow appeared to suf-
fer the most intense agony OF soul.
She looked upon the corpse, and threw
herself upon the lifeless form of her
husband with terrible frenzy of despair.
She wrenched out her hair, tore her
clothes and dis6gured her beautiful fea-
lures with her nails. On the evening
after the funeral Of her husband she dis
appeated After three days unsuccess-
full search for her, the servants be-
thought themselves of looking in her
temple, and had presentiment that
something terrible had happened to her.
They did not find the woman, but they
found heap of ashes still smoking, and
the smell of burned flesh. She had evil
dently built her funeral pyre and immo-
lated herself thereon. Upon searching
among the ashes they found portions OF
human remains, which, together with the
peculiar oder emitted, satisfied them Of
the fate of the poor woman. This is
probably the only incident of the kind
that ever happened in England.

it occurred to him that it would be a
good idea if he could fix things so that
magnificent echo could be heard from

boy to secrete himself behind a clump of
trees, with orders TO repeat the words Of
any one talking on the roof of the hotel.
After practicing to make sure, the land
lord announced one day his discovery of
the echo, and took lot of people to en-
joy it. They called for an hour, but no
echo responded. At last, when the land
lord had become crimson with rage, and
was about to give in, the echo came, but
not in the shape expected. 1t said;
