CINDERELLA BALLs.-What are called Cinde-
rella balls have become very popular in England.
They were introduced by the Princess of Wales,
and the idea is an extremely happy one. Their
name is, of course, derived from the well-known
story of little Cinderella, who was taken to a
ball by a good fairy, but was obliged to leave IL
at exactly midnight. Ordinary balls often result
in n good deal of fatigue to all, excepting the
robust. The vicisitudes of seven or eight hours
dancing-rich, indigestible suppers, and the
journey home in the chill night air when the
vital energy is lowered-can only be endured by
strong constitutions without injury. The new
entertainment may be summed mp thus Dancing
commences not later than s o'clock, the pro-
grammes providing some twelve or fifteen dances.
Light refreshments are handed round at inter
walls, and the music will cease, and the guests go
home exactly Mt midnight. We cannot too highly
recommend this sensible innovation.

"Circumnavigate-to sail round by
water" An observer, E" and other writer's of
late, talk about the Kings tour round the world,
as a decentralization of the globe. His
Majesty is not a circumnavigator but if you
want an expressive phrase, he is a ~circumterres-
trial tourist. Look Mt your Webster, or Wor-
cester. and take note.

~ In respons to many requests, Romberg's
Toy Symphony is to be repeated this afternoon

much greater advantage than at the first per-
formance.

LIZ Orders from foreign countries for some
of the minor products of the country have Of
late been in excess of supply. MIR. Horn is con-
stantly in receipt of orders from parties in San
Francisco and elsewhere for such articles as
Guava Jelly and Tamarind Syrup almost in ex-
cess of his ability to fulfil them. The guava is
virtually n wild fruit here, no one seeming to
take any pains with its culture. Hence the
Guava Jelly from the Hawaiian Islands could
never take n stand in markets where proximity
did not give il an advantage in competing with
the products of the West Indies, Demerara or
Queensland. Is it not worth some ones while
to make a start for more careful culture OF this
delicate and favorite fruit ? What the difference
between cultivated and n neglected fruit is,
every one may find cut for himself by obtaining
a bunch of bananas from the Reformatory School
and comparing it with those ordinarily broughtto
market in Honolulu. A similar difference would
also be seen if any one would undertake the culture
of guavas, lines, mangOes and other fruit Of
which we only get wild products here. Why IL
too that a lemon is never TO be had i'm "A place
phere so many Portuguese are engaged in ngri-
culture and gardening. ?

Bh5- Early in the month Of April last, a China
man named Aloha left his place at Rahanaiki,
North Kona, Hawaii, and went 10 Kohala-over
forty miles walk-with cakes, pies, &c, 10
peddle. In the latter part Of the same month
he left Kohala, having sold all he had, and
carried with him SIG in coin. When he arrived
at Puako, about half way, he stopped at the
house of some of his countrymen. From there
he went to Kiholo, and reported that he had
been robbed of his money. Shortly afterwards
he mysteriously disappeared, and was never seen
again alive. On the 3lst Of October, one ].
Punihaole, a young lad Of 10 years old, along
with others, went up the mountain to hunt wild
goats. Whilst chasing a flock of goats, he came
across the dead body OF Ahona. A Coroner's
inquest was held next day, and the verdict was,
according to our informant, who is a native,
''Alona died of era illness. The official return
shows the verdict to be Died from old age and
starvation"

~ There was a narrow escape from n serious
fire in Smith-street on Thursday morning last.
About half-past 8 O'Clock "A foul chimney in

soon the shingles and woodwork of the roof on
fire also. Fortunately plenty of help was at
hand, and the flames were extinguished before
any damage of Importance had taken place.
Inquiries were made at the time for the Fire
Marshal, for whom there ought to be a deputy
when he has leave of absence.

flowers, the ice-cream, the tea, coffee, and sand
witches had the rapid sale their excellence merited.
Prof. Berger, with his band-boys, delighted the
assemblage within, and n large crowd outside,
with some spirited music and, best of all. many
dollars were added to the funds of the associa-
ton, just when they were very much wanted.

- Pieces of charred wood of the cocoanut
tree have been brought up from a depth of $50
feet, from the artesian boring which is being
made for the Government at Kamoiliili. These,
like similar fragments brought up from a depth
of 240 feet in Mr.. Jaegar's well, were found in
clay Immediately below a thick bed of coral rock.
At $50 feet, still in the clay, a fossil shell-pro-
badly a terebratula-was found but only the
internal cast has been saved, rendering identifi-
cation difficult.
