South African Thunderstorms.

In Mr.. J. a. Froude's - Leaves from a South
African Journey" printed in the third series of
his Short Studies of Great Subjects there are
two passages relating to thunderstorms in that
part OF the world. Under date of November 4th,
1874, he writes: s. On the road to the Wal

feet with four young ones. | suppose it was an

= On the evening OF the third day leaving Pot
schefstrom we came down to the Vaal River,
intending to cross in a ferry boat an hour before
sunset. The hunder-clouds unfortunately had
gathered up that afternoon blacker than I had
yet seen them. Between four and five O'Clock
the storm began, and between the darkness and
the binding effects of the lightning, in the inter
walls of the flashes we could scarcely see ten yards
from us. Even in South Africa / never saw such
a display OF celestial fireworks The lightning
was rose color, deepening at time to crimson.
Zach flash appeared like a cross, a vertical line
seeming to strike the earth, Il second line cross
ing it horizontally. The air was n blaze of FIRE.
The rain fell in such a deluge that the plain in "a
few minutes was like q lake OF course We could
not move. The horses stood shivering up to their

we were in the very center of the storm. The

Arteums Ward in a Boarding School.

The following morning was as rare and sunny
as was Artemus himself. He could not resist an
invitation to visit the Young Ladies' High School,.
While walking to the academy a street runaway
occurred. A terrified horse went tearing over
the pavement with what Artenus called - the
fore-quarters of a wagon Gathering at its heels.
This incident Artemus ingeniously utilized in
his address. "The Yehicular elopement which
has just taken place, young ladies, has furnished
us with a timely topic of discourse. Young
ladies' seminaries are ever exposed to runaways.
Once, when travelling with my show. / came
upon a female institute. There were ladders and
lads, too, as to that, at every window. Many
perpendiculars carrying fainting horizontals to
the ground. Fire p Ishoutsd. None of that.
replied a solemn voice from the orchard. There
amt no fire these are only young fellows run
ming off with their sweethearts.' There is moral
entertainment for man and beast in this runaway.
No horse, if attached to a wagon, that is, if sim
cerely attached to it, will run away with it, but
the more a young man is attached to a young wo-
man the more he will run away with her, leaving
no traces, in fact, none of the harness, behind.
Young ladies, since 1 have stood before your
beautiful faces I have lost something, and if you
or the boy that sweeps out should find a red OBJ
ject, looking like a coral breastpin that has been
stepped on, you may know it is my poor, busted
heart. - F. Hewitt, in Providence Press.

Household Hints.

BIsoUE CREAM-One quart of sweet
cream, two dozen macaroons. one cup OF
sugar. one gill of sherry wine. Crumble or
roll the macaroous, put into the cream. mix
into the sugar and wine, beat well together,
then freeze.
SPICE CAKE.-Take the yolk of four eggs
well beaten, two t~easpoonfuls of baking
powder sifted with two and a half cups of
-four, one of sugar. one-half cup of syrup,
one-half cup of milk, one-half cup Of butter.
two teaspoonfuls of powdered cloves, one of
cinnamon, one of allspice. Rub the spices
well into the -four, add the syrup after the
sugar and milk are beaten. then add the
eggs, the milk, and lastly the -four. Bake
half an hour in a hot oven.
PEACH Ice CONSULTATIONS peach ice
cream is made by rubbing through a sieve
one dozen whole canned pieces. or what is
equal to that number. and six ounces of
white sugar. aud n pint and a half of
sweet cream should then be mixed with the
pulp. After a thorough beating freeze it as
you do common ice cream. If you wish to
make the fancy complete and have the
cream a peach color, a few drows of cochi-
neal can be used or if you object to that,
the cream may be colored with the juice of
red raspberry.
" The Best SANDwIcHEs.-To make won
derfully appetizing sandwiches proceed in
this way: Take equal quantities of the
breast of a cold boiled chicken md of cold
boiled tongue. Chop them very fine so
fine, in fact, that you cannot distinguish
the separate particles. Add a good large
tablespoonful of celery salt, a pinch of cay
enne pepDer. and four ableSDoonfillS of
M~ayOnnaise dressing. This quantity of
condiments will be enough to season the
breast of one large chicken, and an equal
tongue. When this is perfectly cold. spread
some thin slices of bread with butter, and
then with this mixture. Do not prepare
them till you are about ready to serve them
If you wish to take sandwiches for a lunch
when travelling. be careful not to make the
dressing quite so moist as you would if they
are to be eaten at home. The better way,
if you do not object to the trouble, is TO put
the salad filling in a small glass jar. and
spread the sandwiches IS you need them.

1.-THE TIMES LEADING ARTICLE. from
tie 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 a hesitsting 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 certifes that they are made Of gold. 1t
would seem that the 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, eheapness as well as excel
lence 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 expansibility Of the spring and the wheel. Tits
said that the delicacy of construction of the me-
chanism invented by the Company is such that a
micrometer they exhibit at Paris measures the
wenty-fve-thousandth part of an inch, and might
readily be divided under a lens into one-hundred-
thousandth parts. NJ. McINERNY, Agent for this

LARGE FIGUREs.-During the last five years
the Australian and New Zealand colonies have
added to their debts a total of $50, OO0, 600, New
Zealand being the worst offender of this sort, its
debt having risen in that time $55, 000, 600. But,
if the population were considered, New Zealand
would be outdone by Queensland and at least
equalled by South Australia. Queensland, with
227, 900 souls against the 500 600 in New Zea-
land, augmented her public obligations to the
extent of SS1, 4S5, 900, while South Australia,
with 1884, 600 souls, augmented her'sby $50, $780,
600. Further points about these debts are that
the aggregate increase equals sixty per cent. on
the total for 1878, and that at the end of last
year the colonies owed in all $3.50, 600, 900, ex-
elusive of their local and private borrowings
from banks and land companies. At the end of
the year 1882, the years borrowings will have
made the total about $500, 000, 600, or about
$175 per head.

HAWAII-HILO.

HAWAI-HILO.
Genial showers are falling, the cane is grow
ing. the mills grinding. and everything promises
prosperity.
Yesterday the Chinese New Year, or Konohi,
passed off in grand celestial style. Bales of fire.
crackers, Chinese bombs and Roman candles
were exploded, and any amount of chickens. rice
and sweetmeats were consumed. The layout was
grand in every Chinese establishment. the
blooming ~ionquils, fragrant lilies and other flow
es formed the background to their loaded tables.
All were welcome and hospitality was dealt out
Unfortunately with a free hand.
The great event of the evening was the party
of Lee Loi, our road overseer. 1t would have
ments, decorations and Refreshments. The best
society in Hilo and vicinity was present. Every
thing was pleasant and decorous. Mrs. Lee Loi
received her lady guests in queenly magnifcence,
and Mr.. Lee LOi did his part in the most polite
style. 1t was a splendid reunion of our social
ircle in Hllo, and it wound up with a dance, in
which the young folks participated until the
hour of II, when the party broke up, all highly
gratifed.
The work on the streets and roads is pro-
crossing rapidly and with good results. The
general supervisor, Arnold, is very active and
carries out his objects with intelligence and skill.
Our streets are in a faIr way of becoming the
best in the Kingdom. New bridges are being
built substantially and durably, and old ones re-
paired. The Government may rest assured that
that road appropriation will be we'll spent in this
district.
We have no business in our courts, with the
exception of a few haaLete hama cases.

A Revolutionary League in England.

A revolutionary organization (says the Stand
ard has, it is asserted, just been started in
England which threatens to become a formidable
affair. 1t has on its list of honorary members
the names of Louise Michel, Henri Rochefort,
and Prince Krapotkin. It's leading spirit in this
country is a person who has for some time
past distinguished himself in Radical
papers and elsewhere by his advanced views.
In an address to the people of England he
says: Ether are circumstances under which
political assassination is justifable and
necessary, and when murder is no crime. We
must have anarchy before we have peace and
order we must have revolution before we can
have law, we want to do away with all existing
and overthrow all Governments be-
cause they are opposed to the wishes and the
welfare of the people. We must and will have
revolution then we will have a true Govern
ment based upon the viii of the people when
each and all will be equals" An active cam
paign will be carried on during the winter
months, and violent revolutionary pamphlets
are to be circulated. The new organization is
to be known as the |" National Revolutionary
League"

Clippings.

Theoretical reformers begin their great work
with others, but the practical reformer begins
with himself.
1t is all very well to tell us that - sweet are the
uses of adversely but we would rather be
spoiled the other way.
Some peoples religion resembles in a very
startling manner the Keely motor for it is some
thing (which no man can find out"
There are some folks in the world who are so
in the habit of looking on the dark side of life
that, as Jerrold says, they can't even see the
bright side of the moon.
The reason why the money for the pedestal of
the Bartholdi statue is not forthcoming is that a
great many men don't want any more light
thrown on the city. So long as they can keep
dark all goes well, but an electric light blazing
on city affairs would be the despair of politics.
By the way, why not assess the government
clerks for the balance needed ?
Mr.. Stuart Cumberland is not entirely success
full in his expose of Spiritualism. He rather ex-
pected to sweep all before him, but the ghosts
and COLLINS of America are a little too much for
him. Most of the practices which he explodes
are SO old that they died a natural death long
ago, and the new tricks of the Spiritualists he
seemed to know nothing about. DR.. Beard has
one or two mind readers or muscle readers who
are as expert as Mr.. Cumberland, and there is
something almost ludicrous in his attempt to
palm off certain feats as wonders and surprises
which half his audience knew all about and
could themselves perform at least ten years ago.
1t is a little difficult for an Englishman to excel
the native-born Yankee in the art of deception,
and it is very funny that he should travel thou
sands of miles in order to expose what Ameri-
cans themselves exposed some time in the last
generation. Rip Van Wrinkle was a good soul,
but the people couldn't help laughing at him..
Have you ever heard the ~rappings,
Have you listened TO the tappings,
To the strange, mysterious clippings
That are going on in town.
How the deuce it is they do it,
Or what the clew is to it,
No one knows or can see through it,
But it's done, and done up brown.

"Just Like a Comet

A little maid, SO wondrous wise
In speech, and with observing eyes.
Was-wakened at the early morn,
And to an eastern window borne,
That she might see the comet bright,
And neyermore forget the sight.
The shining star was pointed out,
It's head with splendor rayed about,
And then. outspreading like a dress,
It's train of dazzling loneliness,
And all the points that made it far
More beautiful than any star.
The little maiden gszed and gazed,
At such a wonder much amazed
And never had she seen before
TIL morning sky so spangled Ger,
Or fancied that the silver moon
Stayed out so late or rose SO soon.
TIL stars kept winking overhead
As if they longed to be in bed,
And two bright orbs in mamma's lap
Were closed to finish out their-nap,
While till the comet swept the skies,
The marvel of admiring eyes.
Next day within the nursery
The little maiden CHANGED to be,
When baby was on dress parade,
Its prettyifnery well.' displayed,
As high ~in:.nurse's arms twas held
With all its frowns and fears dispelled.
Its fazen head with aureole bright,
Its lengthy train of dazzling white,
We're noted by the maid so wise,
Who stood with widely opened eyes
And said, " 1t looks her speech was slow
