WATER CONSERVATION.

The great preventative OF the
spread of agriculture in these islands
is the want of regular supplies OF
water. Numbers of artesian wells
have been bored, and others are in
course of completion. And these are
doing good work, but no steps have
as yet been taken to conserve the
natural water supplies. Nature has
bountifully provided each Of the
islands with a condenser in the shape
Of high mountain ridge, but no
advantage is taken of the supply
thus gratnitously given. No. pro-
vision has as yet been made to col
lect and store the rain which falls
almost daily on our mountains. 1t
is allowed to run to waste without
an effort to prevent it. And as the
government have made provision for
the services of capable engineer in
connection with the improvement OF
agriculture, we would suggest that
one of his first duties be to visit the
mountains and draw up thorough
and comprehensive scheme for the
collection and conservation OF our
natural water supply. There are,
too, we believe, several spots which
may be termed natural basins or re-
servoirs scattered throughout the
islands. One of these is high up in
the Nuuanu Valley, but has been
choked up by detritus from the sides
Of the Pail; but which, if cleared
out, would soon be filed with water
without any artificial assistance. We
commend this to the attention both
Of the Government and the Agricul-
tural Society.

A Large Payment.

New Bedford Mercury, June Is, 1882. ]
The following speaks for itself
Francis f. Manley, ESQ.,, Massachu-
sets Superintendent of Agencies Of
the Mutual Life Ins. Co. of New
York, arrived in this city yesterday,
bringing to the local agents, Messrs.
Lawrence Grinnell & Co., to be paid
over to Mrs. Susan C. Nye, the
company's check for $25,694, in
full payment of policy Of $40, 900,
and dividend additions, held in the
company, by our late esteemed citi-
zen Capt. Thomas Nye, Jr., who it
will be remembered, took his own
life few weeks since. This policy
was taken at the age of fifty and
there were twenty-eight annual pre-
miums paid of $464, 20 each,
amounting to $12, 1897. go; add com.
pound interest at 4a per cent, s12,-
059.57; total $25'057.17; and the
the amount paid by the company,
exceeds the total premiums with in
terest, S636.S3, beside the value Of
the insurance for twenty-seven years
of an amount increasing from S10,-
600 at the beginning to $25, ,694 at
the close, while the annual dividends
on the policy have exceeded the an
nual premiums for many years.
Such astonishing results cannot fail
to awaken deep interest among our
intelligent citizens, and we COM
mend the company to their thought
full attention. This action of the
company does away with the bug
bear Of non-payment of suicide
claims, which has been 80 industri-
ously circulated against them by the
rival agents Of inferior companies.
Mr.. S. G. Wilder is agent for the
above-named Company.

Hilo grass, which uproots and out
grows everything else.
Hon. member for Waialua moved
the previous question. Carried. Re-
suit: /: that the Committees Bill pass
to be engrossed. Third reading fixed
for tomorrow.
Hon. j. M. Kapena moved sus-
pension of the rules, that the Enroll
ment committee might report, that it
had pleased His Majesty to sign the
following:
An Act to fix limits for fire-proof
buildings in Honolulu.
An Act to regulate receipt and
custody Of Public Moneys, and ap-
poiut auditor of same.
Hon. NJ. Widemann moved sus-
pension Of the rules to ask again for
the information concerning the cost
of Portuguese immigrants, which
had been promised for to-day, but
was not yet tabled. He found the
information published in local
newspaper but he couldn't get in in
the Assembly.
His. Ex. w. NJ. Gibson stated
that the reply ought to be made by
the Minister Of the Interior, but as
he was absent, he himself would
read partial report which had been
prepared.
Gle then read a report which we
will afterwards publish for the in
formation of our readers, to the
effect that A. Hoffnung & Co.,
charged the Board of Immigration
S61,232 FOR the immigrants by SIS.
Monarch, who had by the purser's s
accounts only cost them about
$2s, 900. And as the profit
apparently made by Hoffnung
& Co. was SO excessive the
the Government had stopped the
immigration, pending inquiries in
Portugal and Azores IL the cost was
reasonable. Certainly the gentlemen
had a right to make some profit, as
they undertook great risk in the
contract. But although His Majesty's
Government were satisfied with the
immigrants they did not wish to
spend more than was judicious.)
On the motion Of the Hon. Mr..
Cleghorn the report was handed to
the press for publication, free Of cx-
pense to the Government.
Hon. Mr.. Widemann then moved
suspension Of the rules, to refer a
certain bill to the Attorney General
to report next session. Carried.
Second reading Of an act to amend
sect. 829 of the Civil Code.
His Ex. the Attorney General
stated that the bill was unnecessary.
Hon. Mr.. Bishop defended the bill.
Hon. Mr.. Kaunamano moved to in
definitely postpone. Carried.

Agriculture in Italy.

A report on agriculture in Italy by
Secretary of Legation Beauclerk has
lately been presented to the British
parliament. Real agricultural progress
has been made in some parts of the
country, but sad amount Of misery
exists among the rural laborers. The
land is burdened with an overpowering
taxation, and, while the main remedy
talked OF is education, the demands are
for relief from moral and physical SUI
fering. knowledge without MEANS"
says MIR. Beauclerk, "is of little use.
When the great mass of landowners
have hardly enough to live on, how
can they lay out money in improve
mentsp For small proprietors and
renters it is impossible, while there are
few large estates, and even these are
gradually being split up by the aboli-
tion of entai, and the constant sub.
division of property consequent there

Poison In Dye.

In Troy, not long since, a child, while
playing With some water color paints,
looked about for a palette, and seized
small book-sttracted by the bright
green color OF its cover. He mixed the
paints on the cover OF the book for some
time. Then he was suddenly taken
with commissions. Physicians who were
hastily summoned declared that hehad
been poisoned. They administered an
tidotes, but the child went into convul-
sion after convulsion, and it was only
after three days incessant labor
that the physicians saved his life.
The child's wealthy parents afterward
had the physicians investigate the man
ner of its being poisoned. They dis .
covered that the dye with which the
brightly colored book was covered con-
tanned the poison. In wetting the
paints on the book cover the child had
innocently wet also the dye, and soon
some of the poison to its
own lips. There was comical side to
the investigation, although it was no
consolation to the parents-the book
was found to be report Of the society
for the prevention of cruelty to chill

TWO.Handcd Swords.

The claymore, once famous in Scot
tish history, was a very long sword,
with hilt so large that it could be
grasped by both hands of the warrior
who welded it, and when this tre-
mendous weapon was swung around by
any of the brave
"scots, wha ha' WI Wallace bled,
Scots, wham Bruce has aften led"
there was every reason for the opposing
soldiers to want to get as far away as
possible. Long two-handed swords
we're in use in various parts of Europe
during the middle ages, but it is from
Scotland that we have heard the most
about them.
Some of the German swords used by
the mercenary soldiers in the French
religious wars we're enormous two
handed weapons, with sharp points
Jagged edges and great spikes near the
base of the blade; but these heavy
swords were used only by soldiers who
were uncommonly strong and skillful
for any awkwaidness on the part
of a man swinging such tremendous
blade was apt to inAict as much
injury on his companions as on the
enemy. Some OF the long swords OF
the middle ages were used more fo1
show and ceremony than for actual ser.
vice. The sword of Edward the Third,
which is preserved in Westminster
Abbey, is seven feet long and weighs
eighteen pounds. This, it is said, was
carried before the king in PROFESSIONS,
and was probably never used in any
other way.-,St. Nicholas.
