Two Superb Works of Art.

During the past week Messrs. Geo. w. MaciIr
lane Il Co., have on exhibition two most superb
works of art: One, The Prometheus Vase, - the
Colonel's Coronation present to His Majesty is 4
magnificent specimen of the Ceramic arts being
n vase of colossal proportions surrounded by
the figure of Prometheus bound to the rock with
the vulture tearing at his flesh. The body of
the vase, which is of a beautiful tint of blue,
bears on each side groups of barbaric warrior
captive chained to a trophy of their own arms.
The altar upon which the vase stands is Roman
in form, the entablature being born on rams
heads, the symbols of strength and power, and
the altar is borne on three massive bullocks'
hoofs.
This beautiful work of art, which is unique
there being no replica-was made by the elder
Daniels for the Emperor Napoleon III, and ex-
hibited at the Paris Exposition of 1868. Mr..
Daniels was a personal friend of Louis Napo-
leon, and had done him many favors previous to
his attaining TO the throne Of France. In re-
turn His Majesty conferred ON Mr.. Daniels the
privilege of visiting the Sevres Porcelain Fac
tory. and there examining their methods of
working. This vase is the result of the knowl-
edge he thus obtained, and is a magnificent
work.
Some idea of its value can be formed from the
fact thut it underwent fifteen seperate trials be-
fore arriving at its present perfected state of
form and color. The unusually lar se size of
the piece rendering it apt to crack, on account
of the severity of the heat to which it IS exposed
in the living. The color combinations are strik-
ingly effective, and the delicate handling of
tints is a marvel of artistic skill.
( The other work of art (the Colonel's Corona
jtion gift to the Queen)i is an ideal portrait of a lady
dressed in the costume of the XVI. century, and
the picture is as lovely as a dream. We have
not the space to properly describe the manner
in which this work is executed, but W. shall
take an early opportunity to describe it infinitely.
This will be the last day upon which these
beautiful gifts can be seen at the store of G.. w.
Macfarlane & Co., and we hope our lovers of
art will improve the opportunity.

Island Notes.
IIAMAKUA.

The Steamer W. H. Reed from Hilo completed
her e~ventful voyage from Hllo to Honokaa by re-
naming at the latter place about 4S hours and then
suddenly leaving for Honolulu. She landed a few
kegs of nails, sacks of grain, pieces of iron roof
ing, about 700 feet of lumber and her chief officer
but the cause Of her sudden departure Is not known
here as the weather was by no means too rough for
freight to be landed. What has become of her
maiu-bOom? and is it true that she has TO stop going
in order that any sound may be heard from her
whistle? Those who ordered goods by her from
Hilo won't do so any more.
DR.. Grossman is still very busy but to-day (Fri-
day). leaves for kukuihaele to see what sort of a
harvest can be reaped there and returns to Homo
kaa tonight. He visits Paauhau for a few days
early next week
Last Tuesday was 4 red letter day in the District
being famous for the visit of Mr.. and Miss Michel.
Colonel Judd and party at Mr.. Richards residence,
and the marriage Of Mr.. ]. Il. Mills to Mrs. Briggs.
Mr.. Richards guests very kindly entertained their
host, hostess and a select party of friends who had
been invited to meet them with such music and
singing as has never before been heard in the dis
triN. Mr.. Mills wedding took place at Mr.. Il.
Richards house on Tuesday afternoon, and III the
evening 4 very ENJOYABLE reunion took place, and
the health of bride and bridegroom was enthusiasts
tically toasted. Among those present were Mr..
Marsdeu, Mr.. and Mrs. Richard, Miss Mills, Messrs.
Conradt, Hardey, Grossman, Halliday, etc.
The schooner KauikeaOuh with over 200 Portu-
guese immigrants on board arrived at Kukuihaele
on Tuesday evening, landing some of her passen-
gers there: Next day she tried to beat up to Ho-
nOkaa with the remainder of her living freight,
but got down as far as Waipio where the captain
decided upon landing his passengers as he was run
ming short of provisions. The qnfortunates then
had to walk TO Honokaa where they arrived about
s p. NJ, tired and hungry. On the next day q goodly
Representations uf Christ feeding the multitude
might have been seen in front of the cook house,
where the worthy cook stood OH his verandah sur
rounded by plies of bread there must have been
more than the miraculous fiye) and gallons Of
coffee. The schooner with their bedding, etc, ar
rived on Thursday afternoon, and the men who
seem a very superior lot will probably set to work
next week.

1.-THE TIMES LEADING AnflcLE.-Ertrac from
the London Times Passing by a crowd of minor
notions, we come upon the exhibit of the Waltham
Watch Company, which, in economical importance,
is perhaps superior to anything else shown. The
rivalry of the watches of this Company has already
been felt by our own makers, and 4 hesitating at
tempt was made last session, in the interest of the
Coventry manufacturers, to prevent the watch
cases of the Company receiving the English stamp,
which ~certiies that they are made of gold. 1t
would seem that tine Waltham Watches may defy
all attempts to exclude them in this indirect way.
Their first claim to public approval was derived
from the extraordinary nicely Of their construction.
They were made with such perfect exactitude that
the parts of all watches of the same class could be
interchanged. and, production being thus made
possible on a large scale, chespness as well "a excel
Iencc was secured. But the Company have gone
on introducing improvements in their art, and the
compensation balance they have devised seems to
have overcome the standing difficulty of the vary
ing explnsibility of the spring and the wheel. 1t is
said that the dclicacy of construction Of the me-
chanism invented by the Company is such that a
micrometcr they exhibit at Paris measures the
twenty-fve-thousandth part of an inch, and might
readily be divided under a lens into one-hundred-
thousandth parts. NJ. MCISEENY, Agent for this

after the celebrated French Navigator who ex-

botanist of the expedition found there a rampant
growing vine new to science, with brilliant red

In the Matter Of the Madras.

70 tie Editor Of tbs p. {. Adcerfiser
DEAR SIR,-The only answer myself and Drs.
Hagan and Brodie wish 10 make II the letter writ
ten by a laymaH in to-day s issue. Is the request To
you to publish our report o. May 9th, which L beg
to enclose. The document has never been pub
lishCd, and from tho layman's letter the public
might be misled Gs 20 the tenor Of said document.
To the other questions agiRted by a layman We
think it Is useless answer. Yours truly,
q. TEoUssEAU.
Honolulu, sSTay 25th. 1885.
We the undersigned physicians licensed / TO prac-
t;ce in the Hawaiian Islands hereby declare that
we have this>day fifth Of May, 1888, visited the SIS.
Madras in the roadAtead Of Honolulu and that the
facts elected from the captain are as follows
T.e t!rst ease Of smallpox broke out on April
4th, the second on April 9TH. and the third on
April 11th. The two first cases are well and have
been examined by rs.
The tlird-case was thrown overheard and sunk
with his belongings, after having died on April 81,
There has been no cases since. We have every
reason to believe the statements of the captain to
be true.
We visited the ship and examined the passengers
and found no sign of any sickness. The sanitary
condition of the ship is we think excellent, and she
is in as good Z state Of cleanliness as can be ex-
pected.
We therefore CONNIE that the ship should
be allowed 10 come inside the harbor under the
following regulations
The ships captain and crew to remain in strict
quarantine at anchor in the stream.
The Honolulu passengers 5s3 in number to be
landed on the reef. The two convalescents from
smallpox should not be allowed TO land.
The whole of the Honolulu freight should also
be landed on the reef some fifty tons.
The coal necessary for the ship should be put on
the wharf and one day appointed for the captain
to come alongside with his ship and take it offwith
his own crew, no communication being allowed
that day with the wharf. doors and gates being
guarded and locked.
The passenger landed on the reef to be kept
under supervision for several days.

Hops at a Discount.
Secretary

We are indebted TO the Gazette Of this week
for the following startling piece of news.
.'There is over &c., 0O, 600 capital invested in
the beer business, aud Of tho $50, 900, 900 nate
rails consumed, less than $40 is paid for mali
and hops" This confirms us in the belief we
have entertained for some time that our ''be-aho
was not malt liquor or strong in hops.
IT'S ever thus from hour to hour
Our sweet illusions fade away
Our "malt' and chop drinks always sour.
"Glucose' and "dextrine' rule the day.
