any reconstruction of the Cabinet that may take

As the island Of MauriIius is Of particular in

ton of sugarcane aud its large export OF sugar
and rum, we take pleasure IN quoting few of
the statistics and general remarks contained in
the commercial report of the Italian Vice Consul
in Port Louis to his government, dated August,
1873
At the commencement Of the year 1867, Port
Louis had a population Of $4,000, but fever
which no doubt came from India caused the
death of 2Og26. The population of the entire
island was at this period $4,000. OF which the
mortality during that terrible year amounted to

fever continued 10 an epidemic form during the

may now be considered satisfactory. the fever

months

population Of s16O42, j. e. general population,
99,7s4; Indian or labOrng population, 2l625s.
The island having an area Of 7OS square miles,
there is an average population of 2,273 persons
per square kilometer. The Indians, who form
the largest part Of the population, have been i'm
ported as laborers for the production ofsugar
Sugar and rum are almost the only products of
this island. Some attention has been paid TO the
extraction of the fibre of the Aloe. Several Va
nilla Plantations have also been established and
occupy the attention OF small prOprietors. The
expectation of Vanilla in 1871 amounted 10
1920 lbs, the value of which is estimated at
e3345.
The expectation of Sugar amounted in 1871, to

Here are thirty young men, who have gone
abroad TO complete their education, which, had
we the facillties might all have renamed to finish
it here. To say the least it is rather expensive
to send boys away to educate them. On an
average each one costs at least Eve hundred dol
lars year, making an annual dram on the coun.
try of fifteen thousand dollars or for ten years
one hundred and fifty thousand dollars. This
latter sum would endow an institution, able in
many respects to furnish the advantages now
sought elsewhere.
The highest compliment that could be paid to
the ability of our teachers, and the thoroughness
of their lubors in elementary education is the
fact that most of these young men are found
well fitted for the positions in American lite
rary or scientific institutions to which they aspire.
