MORE PLANTATION FIREs.-We learn with deep
regret that on Saturday last, about two O'Clock
in the morning, a fire occurred on the Papaekou
Plantation, in the district Of Hilo, island Of Hawaii,
by which the boiling house and mill buildings with
their contents, were destroyed. The plantation is
owned by the Hitchcock Brothers, who at tho time Of
the FIRE we're engaged in taking of their first crop.
We have been unable to learn any particulars in re-
gard to the origin Of the FIRE. There was an in
surance Of $1,000 on the buildings, bat this must
have been far below their actual value.
On the same night about midnight a c~onHagra-
ton took place in the laborers' quarters Of the
Kaupakuea Plantation, owned by Messrs. Along
and Achuck, in the same district. 1t is supposed
to have been caused by the carelessness Of one Of
the Chinese hands, who went to work in the mill,
leaving a lamp burning On the table in his dwelling,
close to the side of the house which was covered
with sugar cane leaves. The breeze probably blew
the flames against this infamable material, setting
FIRE to it, and resulting in a CONGREGATION which
destroyed fifteen houses before it was extinguished.
Had the plantation not been supplied with a hand
fire engine, the laborers' houses would have all
been burned. AS it was five out Of twenty were
saved. The loss is estimated at about $1,000

LIFE INsURANCE.-The recent insolvency Of the
Security Life Insurance and Annuity Company Of
New York, involving as it has, serious losses and
vexatious disappointments on many of our resi-
dents who had for years invested therein, has not
however,-and should not have-had the effect of
diminishing the popularity of life insurance itself, as
a wise and benefcent institution. Life insurance, it
has justly been said, is similar to a Savings Bank,
with however the difference that in the one a man
pays in what be may have been enabled TO save,
while in the latter be puts by a small annual
amount for the future benefit OF his family after be
shall have passed away. The fact that a man has
effected an insurance on his life, imparts a feeling
of satisfaction and content, that in itself has a ten
dency to ~lengthen the life Of the insured, while the
prevalence of the practice in a community has un-
questionably a favorable influence upon its social
and moral condition. Judging from notices which
we see from time to time in the leading journals
and periodicals of the States, and also from the
report of the New York State examining officer, it
would appear that the Mutual Life Insurance Com
pany of New York, (for which the Hon. S. G.. Will
der is agent in these islands) is second to none in
point of solidity and sound business management.
A large number of policies are held in this COM
peny in these islands.

A FREScH Chemist, Mons. Milliet, has discovered
. means by which it can at once be discovered
whether wine is adulterated. II substances are
employed to color the wine, such a. Campechy
wood. oIalic acid, or fuchsive. by pouring some
Of the wine into q glass tube. closed at one end.
and adding a certain quantity of ether, then
shaking the mixture, aud afterwards allowing it
to settle, and adding ammoniac, according to the
color Of the ether, on rising 10 the top again, il
can be determined whether the wine is adulterated,
and also what the substance is, which is used for
that purpose. We never drink wine but for the
benefit Of wine-bibbers, we think that the trade
ought to be compelled by law to apply Mons.
Milliet's test to every pint Of wine which they

THE city Of Smyrna Is OF mos, ancient origin,

about twenty miles TO the north Of the ruins of
,Ephesus. This city has recently been the scene
of a serious " row. amongst the sailors Of French
aud German war vessels IN that port From =
letter dated /" Smyrna, lsl February, 1871, /" we
translate the following particulars; "on Jan
nary 18th. at the Captain Paolo' coffee house
there was a crowd Of sailors Of all nAtlonAlitles,
The Pussians present called upon the musicians
b. play their national air, This was done. Then
the English called Tor God save the Qneen,'
which was also played by the band. The French
sailors then called for the Marsealaise, bat the

French aud Prussian sailors. Chairs, tables,

The Prussians were driven from the coffee house,
and took refuge In another coffee house, tho
Alhambra. They were followed there by the

than at the Captain Paolo coffee house. and one
Prusslan was killed, two Frenchmen being serl.
ously wounded. Az last, the French Consul
signalled TO the war steamer Of France 10 port,

The JOURNAL DE st. PETERSBURG says that
Pope Plus the Ninth has named the general Of the
Jesuits, Beckx, for his successor. This Beckx is to
buy Palestine with Jerusalem from the Padishab.
The Popes will set up anew there the Z" temporal
power" which. King Victor rooted out Of Rome.
The Patriarch Hassoon has offered, says that Rus
sian Journal, TO pay the expenses Of the war Of
the Porte with Russia, should it occur, in return
for the cession of Palestine and Jerusalem to the
Pope. Iaga will then be made a drst-rate harbor,
and will be connected with Jerusalem by a rail-
way. Colonists from Europe will be settled all
over the Holy Land. The Journal de 81. Peters
Jourg has, no doubt, good grounds for this state
ment. King Victor would be very glad to get rid
of the Pope. None Of the European Powers have
a right to Interfere, no more than in the cession Of
Savoy to France. The whole Roman Catholic
world would Of course be delighted 10 see the
" temporal power" once more somehow re-
stored to the bead OF their Church. The Pope woBld
continue to be the Bishop Of Rome at the sam
time that be would rule as a Temporal Prince over"
Palestine and Jerusalem, where he would proba-
bly, reside for most Of the year. From the Turkish
point Of view, the Pope would be a Vassal Of the
Padishah, like the Princes Of Seryia and Rou'
mania,-and the Khedive Of Egypt, we suppose.
All this may seem highly ridiculous, and no doubt
it is but we possess too much knowledge OF
mankind, and too Intimate an acquaintance with
the i~ntrigues Of the Court Of Rome on the one
hand and the Seraglio Of Stambool on the other,
to refuse to give serious credence to this scheme,
and We even think it likely to be realized. At all
events. it is one Of the strange phases of this ain
gular So Eastern Question" which threatens TO
deluge Europe with blood and, theE, its accom-
plishment would completely shu. out Russia from
Jerusalem; so that it may be very cunning policy
on the PadiShah's part besides.

A LETTER from Berlin, dated Feb. 9th, 1877,
published in the Journal of AlSace gives a most
deplorable account OF the state Of Prussia. " From
almost every part Of the Prussian Monarchy"
says the writer, accounts arrive OF the prevalent
destitution. In the Rhenish Province, especially
in Westphalia and Upper Silesia, the misery of the
working people is greatest. The number OF
workers without bread daily increases, .
even in the capital of Prussia, the misery and des-
titution Of the working people visibly assumes
more alarming dimensions. Tbeits and robberies
are becoming so common as to create fears Of a
social outbreak like that of the Paris Commune"
From these accounts, the Prussians do not appear
to have been much benefited by the French
money.

RTUALIsN IN ES0LAND--A London correspond

"Religion has just been de6led by n most unseemIy

= FIVE CONTINENTAL Colonies, and two insular,
constitute the Australasian Colonies Of Great Bri-

South Wales, Victoria, South Australia with North

The insular Colonies are Tasmania and New

At the close OF the year 1875, the population Of

MES, that year, was 935 ,252 of cattle, 1884 ,527 I;
of sheep, 3,s45, 7ls and OF pigs, 673,729. The
number of acres of land under cultivation In all
the seven Colonies, in 1875, was IS, 857 500 acres.
The revenue of all seven Colonies, for 1875, was;

There were besides, l,4IO1 miles Of railway in the

close Of that year. There were z4,772 miles Of
telegraph wires, in operation and 1884 more
miles in construction. These statistics give some

PoLYSEsIAN BIBLIoGRAPHY.-In mentioning late

such as, Baron Wilhelm Won Humboldt's famous

quarto volumes. This remarkable work refers
to all the sister dialects of Malayan origin from

is f. Bopp's " Us6er die Verpandshgft der ma

at Breda in Holland. It may be found useful for
scholars who desire to compare the Malay with
the other PolYnesian dialects.
