Blessed are the pure in heart, for they
shall see God" The example of Christ,
His unpretentious humility, combined with
His simple, firm. immaculate life and char
acter are without a parallel, for moral
beauty and attractive purity, IN all the an
mails OF the world. There is nothing more
pleasant and impre ssive; nothing more ele-
waiting and at the same time consoling to
the heart and soul of man than q centem-
plation of the life and crucifixioD of Jesus.
His career was truly an exampli1cation of
His teachings. Every act OF His was tenn
pered with loving-kindness and mercy. No
vintiictive feeling, no ~rroganc no vain
braggadocia ever married one of his utter
ances or influenced his conduct in a single
instance. As the champion of righteous
ness he denounced sin per Sc, but sinners
he rather pitied and loved, because he was
commissioned by the Almighty especially
to redeem the lost. How meek, how gener-
Gus, how full of love and infinite tenderness
must nave been the soul of one, who could
take the sins of u whole world upon him

that the planters as n body nave taken up
the matter with some interest. show
ing a desire to extend the knowledge of the
varieties Of production and capabilities of
the Islands, and not solely for the purpose
of extending their market. In addition to
the large sugar exhibit that will be sent by
the Planters Labor and Supply Company

~tistics, there will also be sent blocks of the
building stone from the quarries in this ISL

important article of commerce, some Of the
poisonous and medical roots such as the
Auhuhu, PoOola, Popolo coffee, tobacco

TO any great extent-the forest trees Koa,
Ohia, Nsia or Oaka and others that are
valuabie for furniture-the Sumac which
grows wild in large quantities on Hawaii
and is much priced for tanning purposes.
Useful exhibits of another kind are the pre-
served tamarind, guavs, ana and taro;
photographs of the country and its native
inhabitants, the latter of which will be of
scientific interest. Many more things
might be mentioned, but We think the
above will give a general idea of the repre-
sentative Hawaiian products and manu-
features that will be sent.
An intelligent and business like commu-
nifty, such as lives in Boston, will naturally
cause Inquiries to be made concerning our
soil and investments, and We have no
doubt that persons will be found anxious
to analyze the soil sent from various parts
of the Islands. Great care will be taken

store and repair any articles that may be

Gently received, states that the japanese are
anxious to procure stock from here. A
span of horses sent by His Majesty as a
present to the Emperor of Japan, have been
much admired in that country and awak-
eued considerable interest. Japan has re-

As soon as regular communication shall
be established between the Hawaiian

take place with the opportunity afforded by
the tide of immigration, we have been as
sured by a correspondent who is conversant
with the quality of our stock and by per-
sons connected with the japanese Govern
nent, that there will'be a large demand
for our horses on account of the proximity
of the two countries, the adaptability of our
climate for breeding and the good condition
in which they will arrive, and consequently
readily acclimatize. This opinion was
also strongly expressed by the japanese
Embassy who would have made several
purchases had there been means of direct
transportation. In view of the interest ex-
pressed we feel that this would give stock

Our daily contemporary a week ago
led off with an editorial on Honolulu's
health. The writer presents a most
gloomy picture of what is likely to be the
sanitary condition Of the town in a short
time unless the trees are cut down. We
agree with him in thinking that there is
too much shade in the city, but we are also
of the opinion that he has overshOt the
mark and Drawn too largely on.his imagin-
alton. We can make allowance for his
having taken a walk up the slope of Punch
Bowl, a feat that is calculated to cast a
gloom over the most elastic temperament,
but to look down upon the town from that
elevated and arid region, and muse-like a
second Dante-over the EMPOWERED city at
his feet as if it was an Inferno, is being too
respondent. He portrays a scene like the
following: A mass of dense foliage covering
the city, acting as an artificial barrier
against the trade winds, and preventing the
SUMS rays from acting upon the fostering
and purifying animal and vegetable mat
ter about the city. These trees tend to
keep the soil moist and damp, constantly
exhaling %mephitic vapors from decaying
damp, deadly mist hanging over the city
consisting of poisonous vapors exhaled dur
ing the night. This is about 80 feet thick.

is out, there is q fetid smell worse than "A

Curious enough. There is no battle
field on earth like it. 1t is dense for

battle was a struggle in wilderness. 1t
was fought behind trees and in clumps
of bushes. General Longstreet said yes

they were when the shot and shell NOW

The strength of General Longstreet
was wonderful lie rode the thirty-four
miles on horseback, and was as fresh as

down, and Captain Howell said: 1 came
