The Queen of the Sandwich Inlands.

The new queen of the Sandwich
Islands, says a letter-writer, is very
attractive one, I think. I can't say
what kind of sensation she would
create in Boston literary society, but to
one accustomed to Hawaiian features
and drsky skins she makes very
pleasing picture. She is about thirty.
five years of age, n little above the
average height, portly in person, and
carries herself with queenly dignity
becoming her station, which dignity
was entirely natural to her, as it is to
most of the Hawaiian women. She
speaks so little English that she does
not trust herself to use this language
in company, SO conversation is some
what difficult; but her bright, pleased,
intelligent expression makes up for a
great deal else. She had reception
Of tho ladies' of Honolulu ut the palace
recently and her manners were worthy
any lady in the land, while her dress
was simplicity itself, but rich enough to
suit her rank. In her younger days she
was nurse to the son Of the pre- sent
Queen dowagcr, and was said to be very
beautiful. 1t was thought that K;:ln-
kaua lowered himself somewhat in mar
rying one below him in rank, but to my
mind it was very creditable thing, If
he loved her, and respect him ali the
more for it. I saw their Majesties late
ly on board the Benecia, and OH that
occasion she looked Queen of whom
her husband might he proud.

The New British Iron-C Clad Inflcxible

Inc 1nhexlble, the latest pattern of
war-ship, now building for the English
navy, is an extraordinary vessel What
may be, called her distinguishing char
acteristic is that she will have, in the
sense Of vulnerability, no wind and
water line" at all. Every one must
know that the vitals of man-o'-war lie
along the belt of erAoatation- a breach
of her sides in that region let's in the
sea and swamps her. The Inflexible
carries all her side armor upon CEN
trail space ITO feet in length. 1t is
twenty -four inches thick, and protects
with that monstrous wall of solid iron
her engines, her crew, and her battery
of four: eighty-ton guns. Along the
rest of her-fOre and aft-there is no
verticle armor, but thick inside cush-
ion of cork of enormous bouyancy.
more than sixty feet square in section,
surrounding bunkers full of coal for the
supply of the ship. A horizontal deck
OF thick metal extending fore and aft
from the citadel, at depth of six or
seven feet from the water-line. will cut
off all this unarmored upper portion
from the real hold of the vessel. Thus
If the enemy should send shot or shell
through every coal bunker and corner
of the Indexible, forward and aft, let
ting i'll the water everywhere, he could
only-if the e'ign answers expectation
lower her for a single foot in the sea.
Her citadel, it may be confidently ex-
pectcd, he could not pierce at any
rate with guns at present in use. In a
word, the constructors of the Infiexible
give an enemy the upper slices of the
ship, except her citadel, to do rs he
likes with; and it is by making the
ends fioata6lo under any circumstances
that the iron work of the ponderous
citadel, with its turrets and frccboard,
can be carried. The ram and the tor
Pedo are therefore the only perils which
threaten this forthcoming fighting ship ;
but perhaps these might also be provid-
cd against if her bottom under the
water-deck were constructed in many
compartments.

Queen Victoria and Prince Lc0pOld.

A London correspondent writes
'1he Queen, with all her virtues, takes
queer freaks now and then, and acts in
a manner that has given rise to unfa.
vorable remarks. She has never been
very fond of her youngest son,-Prince
Leopold,-and she has lately displayed
a curious Indifference concerning him.
The poor fellow is student at Oxford,
where he is said to be very much liked.
For some weeks he has been danger
ously i'll so ill that at times he was
believed to be in danger. The Queen
did not visit him, nor did she send for
him to come to her. The young man
saw nothing of the fetes at Windsor
and London in honor of the Gar and
his daughter, and now his mother has
gone to Scotland, leaving him in con-
dition of suffering and danger. Still,
Victoria is the model and exemplar
of all the domestic virtues.'"

At the last regular monthly meeting
of tho Warsaw horticultural Society,
the above question was pretty fully dis
cussed, and settled in the negative
though it was admitted that, after the
fruit had been punctured by other in.
sccts, the bees would, in the absence OF
flowers, sip the juice and store it in the
comb-cells. In making cider, at times
they are troublesome, but only when

resolutions of independence Of British
rulo in very much tho same phrascol-

patriots of that region met ut Charlotte
