WE have occasion to notice the influence
of a work of art upon a people in observing
how Hawaiians are affected by the statue
of Kamehameha /, now standing in front
of the Government building. There has
not passed n day, since its erection, when
there has not been crowds standing by
and around it and engaged in a steady
contemplation. AS we have often
passed by and stood near on such occa-
sions, we nave heard frequent remarks
made by those contemplating the statue,
and were especially struck with one express
sion uttered in the Hawaiian language,
which was substantially as follows WIFE
the chief let his people die?" This was the
utterance, no doubt, of an anxious, patriotic
soul, who, having been oppressed in Ii. art
with the frequent statement that his race
was passing away, was now aroused 10y the
sight of the grandly prOpOrtioned hero with
his brilliant helmet and cloak of sover-
eighty upon him., and felt an awakened
hopefulness of heart, that the spirit of the
great man of his race, who occupies so
prominent n figure in the history of his
country, and whose form is now set up in
everlasting bronze IN the capital of his ma
ton, will watch over the destiuies of his
people and be an inspiration leading to
renewed life and to n strengthened aspira-
tion for continued national existence. The
statue is an ever-speakinG history; an in
spring poem, and n song of everlasting hope
to the hearts of Hawaiians, and We speak
o his, not to set forth how, possibly. a
simple people may be led by a superstitious
influence TO attach undue reverence to Il
work of art, but to show how a weak, suf-
fering and declining people may be aroused
to a renewed hOpefulness and to a better
determination to strive for the improve
ment of themselves amt their fellows, by a
work Of art which embodies great and noble
qualities and 4 pre-emiuent success.

THE Planters Monthly has lately been
Droposing the introduction of a little ami
NAL from India called the as
a destroyer of rats. He is Il famous
%ratter, surprising the cat or the ferret.
He is described as n lively little urchin,
about the size of Il weasel, as having II
snaky body, vicious looking claws, a sharp
nose, a v%illanous eye and looks like 'mur-
der i~ncarnate.n In speaking of his action in
capturing rats, it is said hat he crawls sim
uOusIy up to his victim until within easy
distance for a rush, and then strikes with
unerring aim, ~snapplngt the rat just at the
base of the brain. The rat has not time
even to squeak, so sudden and deadly is the
onslaught. Wherever the rat can enter the
can follow. Thus as a ratter this
lively little Indian is incompatible, but
the trouble is he will not cOnfine his opera
tions to what is deemed his legitimate
business. Some writers have endeavored
TO save his credit as a poultry destroyer,
but n naturalist, who has carefully observed
his characteristics, says that he Is a general
destroyer, not only of everything under,
but of many creatures over his size. When
in a cage the sight of n small living crea-
ture made him frantic and whenever he
escaped, as he sometimes did,, he made n
sensation in the poultry house. The
is not content with maurauding
fOrays in the yard, but he seems to pervade
the house when dOmesticated. His man
ner for getting into Objectionable hooks
and holes Is most perpleXing, as for in
stance tine leg OF a pair OF trousers OF a SklfI
with the owner in them, quite come up-to
his views, as a desirable place for roost or
forage. The rat is unquestionably n great
pest of the cane and rice planter and
grain c%ultivator in all parts of the world.
The rat pest was deemed so serious
here some fifty years ago that IN en-
lightened and enterprising Commissioner
of the Hawaiian Government, sent in
quest of Chinese coolies, deemed il a judi
cious venture in behalfo of the agricultural
interests of the Islands to procure n species
of snake famed as Il destroyer of rats but
the Hawaiian people, whose sacred soil mas
been kept free from snakes and toads by
some patron saint equal in influence to st.
Patrick, conceived n holy terror of the
snake, Notwithstanding his possible utili-
ties, and passed a decree that Hawaii would
have no snake in her plantations. The
destruction OF rats in the cane-fields was
hardly deemed a sufficient compensation
to the Hawaiian mind for the probable
presence every now and then of his snake
ship in the thatch of the Hawaiian hate
pill. And we think that if the mongoose
be as well understood rs the snake, he will
be as Objectionable as the tempter of our
first parents to the popular mind. This
terrible Indian ferret is said to take n fancy
to fasten on to lambs and suck away their
very life-blOOd; and who knows if he may
not take a fancy once in a while to Il baby
in its cradle.
Moral Better the evils that we wot OF
than venture on experiments for cure that
will land us we know not where.

toughness and lightness il is unequalled.
The size to which these trees have attained
i'll the twelve years of their growth is
astonishing. The trunk of one that we
measured had a diameter at the ground of
thirty inches, and at fifteen feet from the
ground measured fifteen inches. The
branches We're very massive and wide
spread, and the whole tree was valuable,
not only as frewOOd but for manufacturing
purposes. The "heart wood" was large
compared TO the whole bulk, easily worked,
and susceptible Of a high finish. An acre
of land planted with these trees, say ten
feet apart, would contain say six hundred
such trees, that in ten years would be
worth, as firewOOd, at s. per cord, at least
$1,000, all of which, less the interest on the
cost Of the land and fencing, would be clear
gain. There are large tracts in the close
vicinity of Honolulu where these trees
could be grown, and we commend the sub
ject to those who wish to lay the founda-
ton of a handsome income in the near
hereafter. -
We nave received the following pretty
piece Of poetry with a request to publish the
same. We do so with much pleasure, but
as the IS" box in our minion font is
empty, we are obliged to set it in "old
fashioned style:
