FIJIAN CHARACTERISTICS

The following are a few anthropological
notes, taken at random on different visits
by a recent visitor and we'll informed
writer who spent some time in FIJI THE
Fiiians are quite equal in stature to white
men they are better developed relatively
in the chest and arms than in the lower
limbs ; they are excellent swimmers, aud.
if trained, are good rowers, they are not
deficient 10 intelligence, but are entirely
wanting in ballast, or steadfastness of char
acter, so that they can never be relied on.
Left handed men are more common among
them than among white people three
were pointed out in the little village near
the ancorage. Deaf and dumb people aud
albinos occur, in what proportion l am
unable to say. One of the latter ] saw.
His eyes were not pink, but Of o muddy
blue, aud his skin had numerous star.shaPs
ed freckIes of the same colour as otheV
Fiiian skins. Idiots and lunatics are said
not to be common /; probably they do not
live long. Fathers appear to be fond of
young children and to give more attention
to them than the mothers give. Women
have to chop and carry frewood, to fish
on the reefs at low water with a miserable
little net not larger than q towel, to pound
the bark of q tree into native cloth, to
cook, and discharge other toilsome labour.
The men sometimes fish with hooks and
with wooden spears. A man will waste
hours at the waters edge waiting for a fish
to come near enough to poke q stick
through it; but, though they had some
good sandy fats, I did not discover that
they had any idea of drawing q sein.
They make 6sh-fences sometimes, but
rarely keep them in repair. The residents
say that the natives scarcely have any 6sh
to sell ; their modes of fishing are %
futile that they do not catch enough for
themselves.

King Of Tonga was civilly asked if he

of a plot of ground on one of his islands;
and as a Christian sovereign of q Christian
people-for thanks to the missionaries the
inhabitants of Tonga know something of
civilization-the King at once answered in

concluded. The Gazette solemnly declares

Notice to Teachers and Dis

the following places and times

l2th and 18Th.
The examinations Will begin promptly at 10
O'Clock A. NJ.
As there are not enough qualified teachers to
supply all the schools in the county, the cNamin-
ations are in effect com petitiye, the object being
10 select the best. For this reason some who
were licensed 10 teach suts mer schools MAY fail
TO obtain licenses for the Winter term ~ the sup
ply Is larger for the latter than for the former.
Some district boards excuse their desire to have
special licenses granted TO applicants who cannot
pass the examination on the ground that the
best chOl0rs are not always the best teachers. >"
No amount of tact will supply the lack of a rudi.
mentary knowledge of the branches to be taught
in every school, and the standard Of qualifications
Is so low that no one who fails To PISS the exam
ination can teach any school with success. EN-
pcrience has confirmed the truth of this state
ment, Before all our schools can be supplied
with com etent teachers. we must have a highor
standard of qualifications than that now required.

The notice in your issue of Saturday does the
Young Mems Christian Association of this
state great injustice by representing them in a
false light. We presume it was unintentional,
yet, nevertheless. none the less harmful. It is
due to the Young Mems Christian Associa-

Fryeburg and the patrons Of your paper gener-

statement of the matter,

Concert at Kennebunk.

| hENNEBUNh, NdTCu oU.
A remarkably fue concert was given in Ken
nebunk on Thursday evening, the 29th under
| the auspices of the Dramatic Club of this viii
| lage. The occasion of the concert was the pre-
sentaton to the town by this Club of valuable
Chickering piano, which the Club had pur-
chased with funds raised by several successful
entertainments.
The programme of the concert comprised
choruses, quartettes, and songs, with selections
for the piano from some of the great masters.
The vocal part was entirely an exhibition of
home talent. Each piece was rendered in a
manner that would have done graat credit to
professional singers. The songs Sing, Sweet
Bird,'' sung by Mrs. E. Worth, ''l've been
Roaming" sung by Mrs. Robinson, and "Wait-
ing, by Mrs. G. c. Lord, ELECTED great ap-
plause from the audience, which appreciated
the sweetness of voice and expression of senti-
ment with which each of these ladies' sung her
song. A duet, Swallows Farewell" by Mrs.
Lord and her sister, Miss Little showed the
rich quality of their voices, and the careful
culture they had received. Of the several
quartettes, all of which were beautifully sung.
we would notice two, -one, the 'Whippoorwills
Call" by Mrs. Robinson, Miss Little, Mr. Ha-
ley and Mr.. Larrabee; the other, ''Give me my
Own Native Isle" by four gentlemen, Messrs.

eVinced their fine appreciation of the music Of
such great composers as Rubenstein, Colts
chalk, Flotow, and Schumann.
We must not omit to notice the accountant
ments, played upon the piano, to several OF the
songs, by Miss Mary Frost. Her playing gave
evidence of the careful training she had re-
ceived from superior teachers, and of her abil-
lty, therefore, to impart similar instruction to
those under her guidance
All the music, both vocal and instrumental.
was of a very high order, convincing all who
heard it that the scriptural saying may be true
OF prophets but not of singers, that they are
not without honor save in their own country
and in their own house,
at the close of the concert the piano was
presented to the trustees of the hall, for the
town, by Capt John G. Lord, who made appro-
pirate remarks. Hon. Joseph Titcomb ac.
know!edged the gift in feeling speech. Hon.
Joseph Dane moved vote Of thanks, which.
seconded by Rev. G. G. Vinal, was accepted by
the rising OF the audience.
Thus ended one of the most successful con.
certs ever given in Kennebunk, to ba remem.
