generally, grass is the most remuneralive
crop for New Englan farmers hay
always finds a demand, and grass lands
pay net profit Of ten or twenty dollars
per acre by its annual burden. But
where grass cannot he q leading crop,
some other 10 which the soil of the farm.

these are where corn, garden truck, root
crops or fruit; and also the production Of

Generally, each farmer must adapt his

PRINcE-I am happy TO have the opportunity
which Your Royal Highness has given me of present.
ing my compliments at the commencement of Your
Regency. s.4 IH4 -
The absence of the King leaves q great void in
the midst Of numerous friends, whom He has left in

that void, and to day gives proof Off
France, moreover, processes always the most sim
cere friendship for the Hawaiian people, and 1 shall

To which the Prince replied:
Ii gives me great pleasure to receive you, NJ. Bal

q We find the following in the Thames IN. H.
advertiser:
ssThere appears to be a useful philanthropic insti-
tuition in San Francisco which might be copied with
advantage in this colony. A letter was received yes
terday by the .Mitado, which had been posted in San
Francisco. but evidently was not fully prepared, for
it bore the usual postage mark held for postage
The requisite stamps were, however, affixed by some
authority, and on one corner Of the letter was pasted
n scrap of printed matter containing the following
ntimation:-'Thi letter was found in the San Fran
cisco Post-ofhce without the required stamps to for
ward il, and should have been sent to the dead-letter
Office. Please return stamp enabling US to obige
others. Address 2. o., Box 297, s. F., CAL We
very much doubt whether any trouble would be taken
with a letter under similar circumstances in any Post
Office in this colony. 1t would have been sent to the
dead-Ietter Office and destroyed, and in all probability
the person who should have received it would have
blamed his friend for not writing. We heartily COM
mend the philanthropy Of the person or association
in San Francisco who so generously o6lige the PUBLIC
in d matter Of this kind. The arrival or non arrival
of a letter may be of the utmost Importance, aud we
feel sure that any person obliged in this manner
would endeayor TO repay the expenses incurred on his
behalf" -
FIJIAN ~SUGAR.-Says the Herald Of Auckland
The sugar sent from Fiji as an experiment has met
with high praise, aud realized from s33 to e58 per
ton duty paid. It is the opinion, however, Of COM
petent people that it will pay the Fijian planters
much better to produce the concrete or the ''clay''
sugars and send them to Sydney or Melbourne for re-
fning. The planter viii not require ons-fourth the
capital to expend in machinery in the latter case, and
viii also be saved the cost and trouble Of cellarage
for his molasses and rum, as well as the distillery
needful for the latter. If this view be correct q re-
fnery will be necessary in New Zealand unless we
wish to import our sugar from Fiji ria Australia.
OF the capacity of the Fits to produce a very large
quantity in a very short time no one who knows the
islands, their wonderful richness, and the facility of
production, can for a moment doubt.

NoTEs AND QUERIEs.-A correspondent suggests
that it would prove an interesting and valuable
attraction to our paper were we to devote a column
to " notes and queries T" and " answers to cores
pondents." We are quite ready to do so. If corres-
~pondents will furnish the material with which to
fill such a column, and we hope the author Of the
suggestion will himself make the beginning. It
cannot be denied that a great deal of curious and
valuable information has been frequently brought
to light through the means of such a department
in newspapers in other countries. which we have
in memory's eye. The only difficulty in carrying
out a similar plan here will, we opine, be found in
the general Incidence with which literary people
are afflicted in this climate. eEH

LARGE force of men was taken to San Francisco
from Chicago to build the Palace Hotel, on a con-
tract to work ten hours a day. Through a eonces-
sion Of their employers they were for some time
allowed to quit WORK at five P. N. on Saturday, bot
lately, owing to the anxiety to complete the roofing
on the edifce before the winter rains begin, it was
demanded that the masons should work every day
the full ten hours. This was made an excuse by
union y men to begin a strike, and a meeting was
called to demand a short day on Saturdays. The
contractor himself attended their meeting, explain
ed the situation, aud told them that those who did not
continue work at once would be discharged. The
men thought better Of their resolution and the
strike ended. The weekly payroll of the contrac-
tors for the building includes to masons, 5000 25;
carpenters, 1880 40; hodmen, SO, $50 Go; labor
ers, s2,793 rs. The scale of wages paid is. masons,
S. per day carpenters, "a hodmen, So; Iaborers,
under which head is included engineers, &c, So

from 81 to IS per day.
