Learn How to Think.

Knowing how to think is fraugbt with the
greatest blessings, and is attended with the
most beneficial results. 1t means a higher
state of existence; more food, more books,
more clothes and of better quality, creates a
desire to associate with the intelligent rather
than with the vulgar rich; it is the key to the
logic and common sense. 1t means evolution
and not revolution, civility and not servility;
keeps down class distinctions and prevents
the existence Of an aristocracy not in accord
ance with natural law. Ii teaches a man TO
"look upon himself as being a man, and upon
his neighbor as being nothing more;" prevents
him from sinking his identity in that Of an
other, and also from making assertions that
he cannot prove by the highest authorities;
gives him the moral courage to express truth
that may be contrary TO the preconvinced opin-
ions of the major portion OF mankind; prevents
him from being, to a great extent, cajoled,
coerced or purchased; from being egotistical.
vituperatiye and dogmatic; il enables him to
sec virtues in those rot born in the same
swamp with himself, and presents him, to
very great extent, from crucifying those who
may not believe in the thirty-nine articles Of
Calvinism, or in the doctrine Of transatlantic
alton; prevents that savish Fidelity TO the
prince" which Vnonarchists delight ia term
ing, loyalty" prevents naturalization of the
upper, vulgarizing the middle, brutalizing the
lower class in the body polite: it causes
man TO think more and talk less; prevents
cayiling and raising weak objections; teaches
a man not TO estimate character or principles
by the manner in which either one or the
other affects his prejudices; in a word, ''he
lives longest who thinks the mos" and thinks
the most coTrectly.-Jdmes Gduleg.

The state Of things which results from
the sanitary precaution established by
various Governments and municipalities
is both Imaginable and painful. At Perpi
gnan, for instance, travellers on arriving al
the ststion are locked up and disinfected
by the emanations of burning sulphur
Two ladies subjected to that treatment
were nearly suffocated. Not only the
lungs and eyes Of travellers, but also then
watches and Jewels are injured by such
fumigations, which are more likely 10 XII
off delicate subjects than TO stamp out the
seeds Of dieases. In otherplaces travellers
are obliged on arrival to strip of then
clothing and plung into bath saturated
with sulphate of copper-worse than the
mutton broth of work house celebrity. On
the Spanish frontier, people coming from
France are obliged TO spend week in the
lazaretto Of Irun and as that delightful
abode can not supply sufficient number
OF beds, one has TO spend first week at
Hendaye, on the French frontier, before
being allowed to spend another week in
the Spanish pesthouse. Such measures
are better calculated to breed cholera than
to prevent it, for a single case occurring
in these dense, but artificial agglomera-
tons, would be sure to create local
epidemic, which most undoubtedly would
penetrate the Spanish frontier. The most
stringent measures have also been taken
upon the italian frontier, and many
French journals insist upon similar pre-
cautions being taken within France itself.
But travelling under such conditions would
become absolutely impossible, and the
uselessness of such proceedings has long
ago been demonstrated. 1t is clearly
possible to check the propagation of cho-
lera by sea; it is clearly impossible to
check its propagation by land.-L0HsoH

Navigating a Balloon.

1t was only two years since, when from
| Newcastle-upon-Tyn my balloon appeared to
be perfectly navigable. Having observed be-
fore ascending that fsh-shapod paper pilot
had, at about 1000 feet high, turned round
and wagged his tail, sent up globular paper
model to follow, and found that its course was
changed in like manner, and that counter
wind blew toe reverse way, as / anticipated.
On ascending subsequently pointed out TO my
companion that we should drift first Of al iH-
land, but that we could turn seaward if he
would like 10 travel toward Tynemouih. "0h,
no." he replied, "by no means" As we APP
preached the zone in which shift of wind
was certain to be encountered, was vain and
silly enough to affect The ability TO take my
tellow-yoyager a turn over the city if he
would like such change Of course. "0h, i'm
mensely," he replied ''but how can you
manage it ?" "Well; wen Sec" Sure enough,
when the barometer indicated the supposed
region of another current, We struck out for
Newcastle, which we had left a mile in the
rear; but as this breeze was taking us down
the river i was loosely asked, when the
North Sea yawned in the distance, if We were
supposed to have return tickets. "I'll rap
for them,' l replied, by opening the valve
shutters with tapping sound. Gas being let

Another case in point was connected with
an ascent trUm the Crystal Palace in the year
1875, and was chroricled in The Times and
other publications. The air on this occasion
was light and variable, as i suspect il was at

Of two distinct currents Of air, but some hazy
mist formed overhead, and we assembled under
the influence OF a northeast breeze and went

tion over which we passed, had died away, il
was reasonably inferred that we had progress

Work is SO thoroughly a law of nature for a
man as well as animals, that any organ left in-
active decays from day to day. Thus the
well-being Of an organ is indissolubly con-
nected with its activity. One of the most
curious illustrations Of the above principle is
the reaction which the amputation Of a limb
exercises on the brain. That organ regulates
the movements of every member Of healthy
body; but if one member be wanting, then the
respective portion of the brain has nothing
more to do, and consequently exhibits ten
dency TO wither away Several instances have
already been recorded which indicate pro-
bable injury to the brain, resulting from def
cient activity in some portion of the body.
And now NJ Bourbon has communicated to the
Paris Academy Of Medicine 4 case o. BRAIN
wasting arising from the amputation of limb.
A soldier, whose left arm had been removed
some forty years ago, lately died from inham-
nation Of the brain, after thirty-six hours i'll
ness, and the post-mortem OBSERVATION-DISCLOSURES
that one side Of the brain presented differences
from the other. During the late years of the
mans life the leg corresponding with the
amputated arm gradually became lame, the
injury done to the brain having, it is con-
sidered, reacted upon the leg.

EVENING.
HONOLULU YACHT AND BOAT CLUB

A meeting was held at the Gym
nasium, on Tuesday evening, by
gentlemen interested in the forma-
ton of q yacht aud boat club for
Honolulu, and, Judging by the large
attendance and the interest shown in
the movement. the organization bids
fair to be more successful than many
of the organizations that are initiated
in Honolulu.
Hon. S. b. Dole presided ut the
meeting, Mr.. w. M. Giffard acting
as secretary. Among those present
were Judge Bickerton, Hon. F.
Brown, Messrs. w. G. Irwin,
Luther Wilcox, G. b. Wilson, AL
drich, II. NJ. Whitney, e. Whitney,
Keyworth, Fisher, II. Wodehouse,
w. w. Dimond and Holt.
A long list of the names of gentle
men, including representatives of
almost every business house, besides
prominent private citizens in Homo
lalu, was read; these gentlemen
had promised substantial support in
pecuniary manner besides their in
dividual support. Hon. Frank Brown
having, Mt the request of the chair
man, explained the object of the
meeting, Mr.. w. NJ. Giffard read a
copy of the proposed constitution
and bylaws, which he had carefully
compiled from the constitutions Of
kindred clubs abroad.
"The objects of the club are to
promote yachting, rowing and pad
ding, for pleasure and health, by
means of meetings for sailing and
racing; and keeping logs of voyages.
records of water ways, details and
dimensions of boats, and collections
of maps, charts and books. y
The officers of the club will prob
ably consist of Commodore, Vice
Commodore, Captain, Secretary and
Treasurer, and IN Executive Com
mittee, including the above named
officers, and nine active members of
the club.
The draft of the constitution pro-
vides for the election of officers,
their duties, election of members
(honorary and active), the holding
of six regular meetings during each
year, debt, discipline, the club
property, private property, regatta
committee, house committee and
the amendment of any article of the
constitution. The proposed initia-

tion fee, of active members, is S5,
payable within ten days after notice
of election. Due provision will be
made for every detail as regards
economy and the care of the clubs
property.
After the adoption of the two first
articles of the constitution, and an
interesting discussion among the
members present, committee, con-
sisting of Hon. r. Brown, Messrs.
C. B. Wilson, w. l.. Wilcox, w. NJ.
Giffard and Aldrich, was appointed
to report, upon the draft of the con-
stitution and bylaws, to the meet
ing, which was adjourned till Tues
day evening next.
There is no reason why the Homo
lulu Yacht and Boat Club should
not be success. Many of the Or
ganizations established here, after
brief existence, collapse from the
usual apathy which characterizes
most undertakings in Honolulu.
This is sometimes attributed to the
climate, which is one of the best in
the world; but it should be at
tributed to laziness and lack of en-
ergy Oh the part Of our citizens.
Even the Stock and Bond Exchange,
organized by some of our leading
merchants, has almost obtained an
obituary notice; why then should
our rising junior merchants be
blamed for their apathy?
We hope that this movement will
be of long duration, and flourish
until the youngest members and
their offspring may have done good
service in developing, amongst the
many young men of this city, a de-
sire for healthy outdoor exercise.
This will not be the sole benefit. A
well organized boat club cannot fail
to raise the interest and "ebullitior
of enthusiasm which should exist
at our annual regatta. Hitherto the
result of the various races has beer
a foregone conclusion; and, as wa:
the case last year, hut very little in
terest has been centered in the aqua
tic contests which celebrate His Ma
jesty's birthday. We hope to see
with the formation of the new club
a decided Improvement in the at
tendance and interest at our next re
gatta, and that it will not be agail
necessary to chronicle the event a
"half-hearted.'

ROUNDABOUT.

We briefys referred yesterday to
the miniature circus that has been
imported and erected, by Mr.. VIM.
Phuger, Mt the corner of Alakea and
Queen Streets. This is decidedly a
novelty in Honolulu, and a venture
which will doubtless prove remunera-
tive to the purchaser of the "Merry-
Go-Round." 1t is an entertainment
hitherto unknown to Hawaiians, who
can now obtain cheap ride on
horseback, or in carriages, to the
accompaniment of the dulcet strains
of II melodious Swiss organ which
plays a variety of tunes. This cir
Gus boasts of twelve horses and six
carriages. The horses are we'll
matched, two blacks, two greys, two
bays, two sorrels and two chesnuts.
Each horse has a good English sad
die, saddle cloth, double reins, bit
and curb, and is well shod. There
are six carriages handsomely fitted
with cushions and seats, doors and
steps. Mirrors are attached to the
center post so that each rider can
see where and how he is going.
Thirty lamps are arranged, round
the center post, to tighten the dark
ness of those who travel by night.
The coloring and drapery are taste
ful and ornamental but the chief
attraction has yet to be mentioned.
Attached to each horse is a scabbard {;
in this scabbard is a diminutive
sword. AT one side of the circle is
u mechanical contrivance, to the end
of which adheres a ring and each
rider has the privilege, as he passes,
of "tilting in the ring" The lucky
horseman, who secures eight rings,
gets free ride. This permanent
circus should prove profitable ven
turc to some enterprising speculator
