FIJI.

We clip the following from the Fiji TIsss re-
ceived per Guy Of Sydssy:
The natives Of KAndavu are almost on the verge
Of starvation. and though that seems impossible in =
country like this, where all that Is necessary 20 keep
oneself comfortable can be obtained with 50 liule
trouble, still the slothful habits Of the natives. and :
little bad luck, do place them sometimes in that
position. The condition Of that island Is slightly
different from most Of the New Hebrides, where. dur
ing the last trip Of the cutter .Aary Eliza, we are
informed she could have been repeatedly hIled with
ysms bought AZ the rate Of Is Cd per ton. IL might
pay to charter . vessel TO bring q supply to Levuka,
where they would realize Eve or &c; or should mat
ters at kandavu get serious, the government ought
10 procure . few loads TO be distributed amongst
those who are short Of food on that island.
It seems probable that the colony is 10 lose the
services Of the steamer Star Of the South At the eud
Of the year, when the agreement at present existing
betweeR the government and the Star will come 20
81 end. The subsidy now paid by the government
ID E4oO per month, and this amount, large as il
seems, together with the earnings Of the Star,
scarcely pay expenses; therefore, unless the subsidy
Is further increased, the Star will return to New
Zealand on the conclusion of her present contract.
Mr.. Hawkins has been summoned and fined. for
supplying Q Polyuesian laborer with 8 glass Of
brandy.
Rstu Tsvets I'll Lakeba. TUT NagAu, the we'll
known Windward chief, died about a fortnight ago
through the effects Of influenza He was one Of the
highest chiefs of the Windward Islands. and held the
rank of Bull and TUT Nsgau since annexation. The
large ysgona bowl out Of which he only drank when
installed, is in the possession of a citizen. He was
married to s daughter Of Cakobau, who suecumbed
to the measles Though in great agony at the time
of death, he carried himself as q thorough chief, as
sembling the minor chiefs, took q last farewell of
them, and sent his dying message 10 many absent
friends. He was truly one of natures gentlemen
The deceased was most hospitable to all the whites
who visited him. but amongst his own people had
the reputation Of being q tyrant. His new yacht
the Ului-i-Lakeba (Head Of Lakeba) lately built for
him in Auckland-is now due here.
A late issue of the same paper says We now
have much pleasure in announcing to our readers
that America has also her representative for the
Samoan Islands at present in Levuka. The Hon.
Gilderoy w. Griffin has replaced Mr.. Foster. who
twas removed by the Government Of the United
States, as having been "un6t to fulfil the duties
of his position" American papers speak very
highly of this appointment, Mr.. Griffin having
earned his laurels, and, strange to say, possessing
the enviable privilege of wearing them without
envy or detraction. This gentleman is an author
of no mean calibre, and we hope to have an early
opportunity of presenting q review of some of the
more prominent of the efforts of his genius before
our readers.

many the proportion of forest to other land is
twenty-five per cent; and in another part of to-
days paper reference is made to the wise tree
planting legislation of the King of the Friendly
Islands. Our Ministry will certainly not be ex-
celled in forethOugbt by the ruler of Tonga For
whatever may be the abundance Of water now,
or however rich and luxurious our fields may
become from utilizing the water, we must remeIn-
Der that without the replanting and preservation
Of forests near the sources of streams, those
sources will eventually dry up, just as the for
meriy voIuminous Kapena springs are now
dwindling from year to year. The streams at
Waimanu are the out-Howings from a reservoir
that is large because it is the receptacle of an
extensive surface of country, with its mountains
and forests, while the Kspena springs are the
out-iowing of a single valley. limited in extent
by the deep p~recipice of the pail. Nevertheless,
with the disappearance of forests and consequent
seasons of drought. the waters of Waimanu will
disappear as well as those of Nuuanu. a
stitch in time,'' &c.

Mr.. P. Benson. Sr., gives some Rooles for
Playing onto a Organ which have been adopted
in many of our churches. He says: " When .
him is given out to sung. play over the whole
toon before the singin', but be sure to play it SO
nobody can tell whether it's that toon or some
other toon. 1t will amoose the people to CESS"
Another " roole," i~fstrictly followed, will sue
coed in confusing everybody, which is the prime
object in congregation singing " Play the inter
Iudes with the toon without letting them know
when the toon begins. This will teach them to
mind their bizness."

II THESE days of spring weather on these ISL
ands-and of dread winter and it's SHOWS, icicles
chilly storms and dead nature, in other lands-
how pleasant Ito those who do not lazily lie in
bed) it is to take a walk in the early morning
even through the streets of the parklike town.
with its trailing vines loaded with fragrant flow
ers, its shrubs and roses and sweet lilies in their
early bloom. The ever busy and loquaciOus
mynahs play hide and seek among the branches
of magnificent shade trees, and the turtle-doves
COO their soft notes OF love, while the sleepy town
is just awakening from the dreams, sweet or
bitter, of the past night. Truly, our lines are
cast in pleasant places, and impassiVe indeed
must be the soul that can be unmOved when all
nature around him greets the young morning
with praise to the Creator.
There is no walk near the city, we think, that
will prove more pleasant than an early visit to
the grounds of the Queens Hospital. They are
undoubtedly the most tasteful and best laid out
grounds of which the city can boast. II any
fault can be found with them, it will perhaps be
in the stinted width of the walks, as not CORE
spending to the size of the building and the ex-
tent of the grounds. The selection of plants
however is such as will very likely never be found
in any other grounds on these islands and one
OF the most pleasing features is the absence of
what a gentleman lately most appropriately
termed the " restaurant style of gardening -
referring to the useless and altogether t~asteless
cutting up of grounds into all imaginable and
nonsensical shapes of little plates, divided by
little walks-yery nice for cats to prone
made in on moonlight nights-with here and
there a few red or yellow flowers to initiate a
plate of red beet or stewed pumpkin or greens.
Happily the taste of Honolulu society is above
such q peurile standard, and samples OF the best
taste in laying out gardens may be frequently
seen in driving out King street toward the plains,
or up Nuuanu Avenue. Certainly no country
can show better evidences of refined taste in gar
dening than can be found here.

Outdoor Sports ut Newport.

The remark is made by keen historian
that no people con long maintain their
political existence, or even their liberties,
who are Indifferent to athletic sports and
exercises. This truth is illustrated by the
history Of every country with which we are
intimately acquainted, from the days Of
Greece and Rome, thousand years ago,
down to the present time. Athletic exer-
cises are i'll fact gauge of civilization, and
in proportion MS they are practised and cul-
tivated by nation in exact ratio is that
nation strong and powerful. An English
statesman some years ago made the shrewd
observation that Great Britain possessed one
more to her than an army, but which
was unknown to those who did not
look very far below the surface-namely
the large number Of her gentry who, as
sportsmen, are trained to the use of the
gun almost from childhood. The disci.
on the moors and the mountains in the pur-
suit of game form the best training in the
world for military life And the excel
lence of the British army is perhaps due in
no small degree to the fact that its officers
mainly come from this very class of her
people. Until within very recent period
it has been too much the fashion among us to
sheer ut outdoor sports of all descriptions
as mere profitless waste Of time and
energy. There was painful poverty of
physical exercises, and the neglect to do
something for our outward development
was beginning to have its influence on our
character as a people. But all this has been
fortunately changed, and now there is
hardly people in the world who
take keener interest in that which
we hitherto despised. The cosmopolitan
character of our nationality has intro
duced to us the games OF nearly oil the
world, and we are gradually naturalizing
them as it were, and making them part of
our social life. Take, for instance, the
games and sports to be played at Newport
during the next eight or ten days. To-
morrow and Friday two teams OF Indians
come down from Canada to play lacrosse,
an old Indian game full Of interest and ex-
element. The following Saturday Buffalo
sends her polo club, with their own
ponies. Next week, at the same place,
there will be the game of pallone, borrowed
from Italy and played for the first time in
America couple of months ago. This is
a very interesting programme, and serves to
mark the progress we are making Us peo-
,,1o -, ,notfarc which form no small mart of
peoples civilization.
