the eagerness with which the newspapers

some selections Of Spring Clothing that

Messrs. \. K. Altmayer Il Co. inaugu-

grand .sh0c" opening. during which time
they exhibited one Of the most complete
and finest assortments Of boots and shoes
ever seen in the retail trade Of Southern
city. Each visitor was presented with a
handsome souvenir. All day long a stream
Of people was pouring in and out the
store This house is also conducting an
unriyaled spring hosiery sale, it APP
pearjug that they are determined to have
the understandings Of the people in the
best possible condition; that is, so far
as SHOES and hosiery can make them

effort Of Altmayer IL Co. viii be directed
to q that" opening, when they viii under

in Savannah where everybody goes, and
though it is a strictly cash concern, it is
one OF the largest retail houses in the state
In conclusion it Will be as well to state
for fear the male portion of

The south 81 I.Ianders Il rhey Are

The South sea Islanders as they Are
Occasionally at Honolulu one sees a
consignment Of South Sea Islanders from
the Feejees. the New Hebrides and the
Navigator group all whilome cannibal
islands freshly landed from a sailing
ship and lying about in sort OF shambles
at the docks. saws correspondent Of the
Re5aJiic. Nothing to which we are ac-
custOmed resembles this race in brutality
Of aspect and low animal type OF hui
mainly. The men are low Of stature,
sinewy sturdy. with black skins, wool,
strong large teeth, CLASSY eyes, a half
famished look, and an appearance OF rare
cunning and ferOcity. Their ears are
often studded with human teeth, their
wool dressed with sharks teeth, While
their own white teeth glisten IN the sun
shine like ivory. Indeed there is an un-
mistakable air Of cannibalism all about
them. The women are tat, oily, animal
looking and indecent. In fact, 1t IS
matter Of surprise to American and Sand
witch Islander alike to see such gross,
vulgar, cruel, murderOus wretches, mt
only for their own savage state, brought
to these settled shores Tor the purpose OF
employment on the sugar plantations,
to labor side by side with intelligent
Chinese, POrtug ese, and Hawailans. 1t
is no wonder that several Of these brutes
are lying in the dungeons Of the prison
On-the-reef, guilty and convicted Of the
vilest and most revolving classes Of
crimes. But even such miserable Great
ures long for their homes and freedom,
and are willing to risk their restitution
with their lives. Only a few days before
| sailed from Honolulu a band Of these
wild men broke from their quarters at
night on the island Of Mani, and Selling
a small boat, quickly put out to sea, in
the vain, foolish hope Of regaining their
native islands and the cOmpaniOnship Of
their cannibal brothers a couple Of thou
sand miles away. On the whole, how
ever, it is better to bring these unciviliz-
able saYages to the Sandwich Islands for
the experiment of ChristianiZatiOn rather
than to send wholesome missionaries to
them in their own Cannibal Islands, with
the chance ahead Of being summarily con-
verted into ragOuts for the dainty tooth Of
a heather, but hungry chief, and that OF
his smiling squaws and invited guests, to
the mOnotonous music of drum corps Of
tOm-tOms.
