what Immediately strikes a stranger is
that Havana, like Rome of Romulus is a
city without women. There die annual

1852 white males to 1904 white females,
while the deaths among the colored peo-
pie are for the males, | l,O46; tor the fe-
males, l.099 Thus, while the sexual
numbers of the negro and mulatto popu-
lation are almost balanced, with respect
to the whites the proportion is something
more than three males to one female.
The fact, however, is self-evident. Hard
ly any other women than negresses are to
be seen about. Ladies with any preten-
sions to youth and beauty would sooner
die than venture out unprotected even
for their early mass; and SO uncommon

jeets a curiosity not unfrequently de-
generating intoimpertinence. The causes
of these disproportions between males
and females are not so far TO seek Be-
sides the priests, the soldiers and sailors,
and the public functionaries. whose ten
ure of Office is extremely precarious, who
are either detarred from marriage or
dread its membranes aud responsible
ties, there are here thousands Of Spanish
immigrants OF the lower classes attracted
to the spot by high wages, but looking
upon themselves as birds Of passage,
who, consequently, would hardly dream
of sending for women from home, while
their contempt for the native race seldom
allows them TO look upon the Creole wo-
men with honorable intentions. need
not dwell upon the obvious results Of this
state Of things. Suffice It to say that
regard for women is by no means en-
hanced by their scarcity. There ensues
an exclusive male society. The charms

irons. Housekeeping in the town, and
still more in the suburbs, is terribly up
hill work. Foreign consuls and other
strangers usually try it on the first arri-
val, but soon learn to look upon the ho-
tel, with its smells aud noises, as haven
from domestic storms. Nothing like
available free service is to be obtained in
slave holding community; the laziness,
and, unless awed by the lash, the inso-
lence Of the negro bondmen communi-
cate themselves to the hired help, what
ever be the color, race or sex, working
at the same task with him in a common
household. Hence, mans life in Havana
is wholly out-ofdoors, while for women
there is no life within them. In no town
in France or Italy have | ever seen so
many, or, proportiopately, such sumptu-
GUS and constantly crowded cafes and
restaurants The Havana merchant is
as eager to make money as he is to
squander it. But the town supplies lit
tie besides gross material enjoy ment for
his money. A box at his third-rate
opera, drive in his dreary prado, are
all the amusements he can have in com
mon with his wife and daughter. For
the rest, the women are left to nope
alone at home, playing bo-peep with the
passers-by from their window-gratiugs,
or pacing the fat roofs Of their houses
like so many Sister Annes waiting for
those who are never coming With SO
little wholesome domestic society, it is
pleasing to hear the characters univer-
sally given for good conduct to the Ha-
vana women. Few of them, even Of the
lowest classes, frequent the cockpit and

toms of which are everywhere only too
conspicuous, is of Spanish or American

impression of many enormous waterfalls
tumbllng over the precipIces. At GER
tain intervals those thunders rolled
away, aud then began again with in
creased vigor. Having passed Burfell
TO the eastward, they we're surprised all
Of sudden to hear no din at ALL but it
soon made itself heard again as they ap
preached the place of the eruption. The
fire rose up from three lava craters, in
line from south to north, which it he'd
piled up around itself on perfectly
level piece of ground AT distance Of
fifty to eighty fathoms to the west from
the craters a large fssure had formed
itself as the fire broke out, and the land
had sunk in to the depth of about three
fathoms. Into the hollow thus formed
the lava had poured at first, but now it
flowed in a southwesterly direction from
the two southern crsters. The north
ernmost crater had the appearance Of
being oblong, about three hundred faith
oms in length, and from this crater the
molten red hot lava was thrown about
200 or 300 feet into the air into one com
pact column. The top of this column
then assumed palmated appearance,
and the lava fell down 10 small particles,
like drops from jet Of water, which, as
they became separated from the column,
grew gradually darker, and split into
many pieces, bursting into lesser and
lesser fragments as they cooled, yet when
they fell on the edge Of the crater they
were still in such molten state that
they we're splashed about like water
dashed against solid substance. As
matter of course, no flames we're OBJ
served, but the glare proceeds from these
columns and the seething lava in the
crater. The columns rose up at various
points within the largest crater; but
most frequently toward the ends, and at
times the explorers could count twenty
to thirty OF them No real smoke ac-
companied the eruption but a blush
steam, which expanded and whitened in
color as it rose to a greater distance
from the crater, and such seemed to be
the power Of this blue jet Of steam that
it rose straight into the air for many
hundreds of fathoms in despite Of
heavy wind blowing. The din to which
reference was made before apparently
proceeded from the boiling action inside
the crater, which in power and force ex.
ceeded any noise produced by waterfalls.
In the midst Of this din there was heard
now and then loud cracks, exceeding
any report of cannon, and these reports
we're followed Immediately by a blue
steam column shooting up into the air.
This is about the sixth eruption which
has broken out in these mountains since
the present volcanic action began. With
intermissions Of from ten TO twelve days
the eruptions are gaining steadily in
intensity. The din mentioned before
could be heard clearly from the Myvatus
Sveit-that is to say, it is audible at a.
distance of about twenty English miles
