Our neighbor continues to regale the pub
lie with those vagaries of diseased imagina-
ton, which would be amusing were they not
SO pitiabe, for which it has of late become
famous. In the last Issue the unfortunate
writer who has recently turned up" in this
country, after short residence in the istbmus
of Darien, does his feeble best to get up
"scare" in regard to the future independence
of Hawaii mel. His experience of the last
few months has deeply impressed him with
the idea that the canalization " of the 18TH
mus of Darien will 50 completely alter the con-
dition of the Pacific" and the position of the
Hawaiian Islands will then be of the highest
Importance" and he announces-all in one
may "seize" these islands, that the | nited
States may "annex them to the Union," and
that RUSSIA may make a swoop with her
Pacific fleet" and take possession of us. The
canalization" of the isthmus which will
place us in such dire peril, but, with the in
stability common to minds beclouded by
halucination, il soon becomes g the subse-
quent course of events" which may "lead to
general war, in which England and Russia
would be brought front to front upon the
battlefield which fully prepares us mot to
be astonished at all events, TO see the Russian
war-vessels in the Pacific seize upon some
part of these islands, as harbor of refuge
for their cruisers" Well, improbable events
sometimes occur-the insane rawlings of mad
men occasionally chance to hit the mark, but
as for Russia t. king possession of Hawaii, we
are quite content to rest in the belief that
while the United States does not wish to an
mex us at present, she would have decided
objections to the occupation OF this country
by Russia or any other power, and we doubt
if either England or Russia thinks possession
of us sufficiently preferable to our independ-
ence, TO take a step which in addition to pre-
sent European complications, would involve a
war with the United States. We should not,
however, be much surprised if the Padishah
Tor Paddyshah) should send gunboat out to
seize the islands as soon as he learns of the
probable early canalization" of the isthmus
of Darien, in consequence of the favorable re-
port made by the " Exploration Commission,
under the command of our old friend Lieu
tenant Commander Lucien Napoleon Bona
parte Wise, of the French navy, grand-nephew
of Napoleon the First, and son of our deceased
fellow-countryman, the late Right Hon. Sir
Thomas Wise, of the manor of St. Johns
Waterford, ireland, formerly British Ambas-
sador at the Court of Athens; the second-in-
command of the Exploration Commission, be-
ing our old italian friend Captain Bixio,
aid-de-camp of his Italian Majesty, and ne
phew of the late General BixiO," and SO on

.Milk-beer, new product Of fermentation, is
discussed, in connection with the beer question
generally, bT recent French writer. He con-
siders beer very useful drink containing many
OF the salts favorable to nutrition, besides nj
trogenons substances easily assirnilable, and, es
pecially, an abundance of the elements that sun
port respiration. Unfortunately the adulteratiou
OF Deer has become so common as not only to de-
strof its hygeufc properties, but to render it's
use dangerous. The new product Of lacto-alco-
nolc fermentation, which he calls La Bierc de
Laat, IS destined be thinks to occupy an imnor-
tant place IN alimentary hygiene. The manu-
1acture Of this beer rests on the same principle
as tnas Of other beer, except that milk is used,
instead OF water, in its preparation. This beer
mas: mas ysllowish color, and density little
greater than ordinary beer. The taste is pleas
unt'ano less bitter than the generality Of malt
liquors. in fine, ii We admit the utilftr nf
beer In General remarks the Sanitarian. IVA
mus: must sse the great advantages In a hyeieuic
point OF view that this oeer has oyer ali other
kinds The water Is replaced by milk. Ehose
albuminold principles, together with preat
quantity OF the salts found in the serum of ths
blood, g1Ee to the beer the advantageous unfon
OF all the constituent principles Of miiI. maIt'
and hops, and thus greatly enhanca its nourish. |
