Professor ASasSiz.

Among the passengers by the Alameda,
yesterday, was Professor AgassiZ, of Harvard
University, who visits the Islands partly for
recreation, but mainly in pursuit of scientific
explorations. Professor Agassiz is the son
of the late Professor Louis Agassiz, of world
wide fame, and is himself one of the most
distinguished scientists of the present day.
He was the original locator and the prin-
cipal owner of the celebrated Calumet and
Hecla copper mines, near Lake Superior,
the product of which has yielded him an
immense fortune, aggregating in the neigh
borhood of fifteen millions of dollars, large
portion of which he has expended in the
development and progress of science. Har-
ward College has been the recipient Of very
princely donations at his hands, which he
has contributed from time to time in his
silent, modest way and free from the osten-
tatious parade which usually characterizes
donations of most rich men. We have
reason to ratulate ourselves upon the
arrival of such distinguished savant in
our midst.

the referee will sustain the objection and
an answer will not be required. But if
