Tourists and residents in Honolulu should
buy copies of DR.. Frank Cowan's poem,
descriptive of the volcano of Kilauea, and
the journey from Honolulu to the brink of
the seething crater, and mail them to dis
tant friends. 1t gives more vivid concep-
ton of the weird and terrible appearance
and surroundings of this lake of fire than
anything else that has ever been written.

The Seethe Pot of PeIe.

What Jules Tavernier has done for the
crater of Kilauea with his brush, in present
ing the similitude of it's lurid flame and
spouting fountains to the eye by means of a
m arvelous mbina ton of colors, DR.. Frank
Cowan has done for the eye of the mind, in
his poem on the same grand but terrible
scene. Every prose description of it sinks
into commonplace beside his Visit in Verse
to Halemaumau." 1t is as clearly and I'M
mistakeably work of art, in its highest
manifestation, as is Jules Tayernier's pic
ture of Pele's cauldron.

These tignres, If not very satisfac
tory, are at least instructive. We
assume that the number of police ar
rests is a very fair criterion of the
amount of open drunkenness in the
community, although of course it is
not a reliable guide to the total con-
sumption of LIQUOR.

about o'clock, MS his body was warm
when found at o'clock on a bed in his
room, with the knife in his right hand
and cash on each side of the throat.
Mr.. Tarbutton has been in Easton about

Brisk southern Trade.

The outgoing coastwise steamers from
New York on Saturday afternoon, says
the correspondent of the Philadelphia
Ledger, presented abundant evidence of
the activity and magnitude of the
southern trade. The Comal, of the Mallory
line, for Galveston, had as much freight
as she could find room for, and the vessel
was detained nearly an hour beyond the
appointed time for smiling to accommo-
date urgent shippers. The Cromwell line
to New Orleans had like experience, and
the Charleston and Savannah lines had no
occasion for complaint. Dry goods,
groceries, boots and shoes, and Iniscel-
laneous merchandise are the bulk of the
shipments The Old Dominion line has
been so pushed with business within the
past 10 days that the company has been
obliged to put on an extra boat with
freight for Newport News, Norfolk, Rich
mond, &c.

LYNCHED and TURNED.
A Murderer I.ynched and Eve others
Ik0nsIcd AIiYn.


Charles Williams, colored, who shot
and killed Polk Mitchell, street car
driver, in revenge for being elected from
the car, was lynched in the jail at Chatta-
hooga early yesterday morning by mol
which battered in the doors. There was
guard of militia around the Jail, hut no
resistance was made, ms it appeared to the
sheriff that shooting into Ne crowd
would certainly result in the kill
ing OF II large number of people.
The keys of the Jail were not
given to the lynchers, but they were
allowed to break their way iii. During
the proceedings an episode occurred,
with fatal results to two men The firing of
a pistol caused fusilade from n number
OF rifles, and William L. Nanny, n promi-
nent young man, was fatally wounded
and died soon after. A colored man
named Palmer wasalso MORALLY wounded.
A third man was wounded hut not
severely.
Two prisoners named Polk, confined
for murder, were roasted to death in the
lnil Mt Murfreesboro, Arkansas, on Sunday
night, by mob of lynchers. The
lynchers, being unable to get at their vic
TINS in any other way, hauled Iond of
wood to the Jail, piled it around the iron
cell, saturated the wood with coal oil and
literally roasted both prisoners alive,
nothing standing but the brick wall of the
iail.

There was labor demonstration in
Chicago Monday, about 1900 men repre-
senting the various trades assemblies
and unions of that city parading through
the streets. The rcd flag of Socialism
was not allowed in the line, the American
colors only being displayed in addition to
the society and other banners usually
carried. The notices demanded eight
hours for a days work and denounced
convict labor.
During the afternoon exercises the fol-
lowing resolution was adopted:
The organized mechanics and work

celebration of lnbor's national holiday,
deem il due TO themselves and the public
to announce That, while they know their
rights and dare maintain them nj all

much excitement at st. Joseph, this
county, over three mysterious deaths

Young Peabody's parents, particularly
his mother, were opposed to his marriage,
owing to Miss Hasly's poor health. On
August I'd Mrs. Peabody died very sud
denly of what appeared to be neuralgia Of
the stomach. On August 18th Mr.. Pea
body died with the same symptoms. On
September LIST Miss Hasly and young
Silas Peabody We're taken with the same
symptoms, and the Young lady died,
while tho young man has recovered.

awakened by the alleged discovery of
package of rat poison, pinned to an
undergarment which Miss Hasty had laid
of Just before her death, that the latter
had poisoned Mr.. and Mrs. Peabody with
the hope of marrying the son and them
concluded to kill him and herself On

CHICAGO, Sept 7.-Senator Harrison of
Indiana is in the city to-day on his way

territory in dispute following Scc.e-

Astronom rs are perplexed over the I'M.
accountable appearance of something re
sembling small star in the centre Of the
great nebula of Andromeda. 1t adds to
the strangeness of the phenomenon that
this star has been observed to grow in
brillianey since its first discovery. There
ia no room to suspect, as some unfamiliar
with the heavens might fancy, that the
STIR is not new but simply one
that had previously been overlooked;
for this nebula has been carefully
studied in all its details, by thousands of
astronomers, almost from the very in
yention of the telescope, and all the WISH
BILE stars that lie between us and it and
seem to dot its surface in places, as well
as all the stars in its immediate vicinity,
have been carefully mapped. Henry M.
Parkhurst, in letter we publish else
where, concludes sin this case it is evident
that the star is CONNECTED with the
nebula," and refers to one similar case in
the constellation Scorpio. OF this star in
Scorpio, Webb says in his Celestial
Objects !" s'Nearly central, or more
probably between it and us,is the strange
variable T, which between May 18th and
2lst, 1860, had blazed ont to the seventh
magnitude, eXtirguishing apparently the
cluster, had almost faded by June 10th
and has never distinctly reappeared.

appreciated when, it is considered tina
this star in Seorpio was at its brightes
still full magnitude below the limit o
visibility to the naked eye.

of these strange objects which is con
spicuous enough to be easily seen by tn

words:

According to New York H7aid
special, old Emperor William has shown
Bismarck the way ont of his threatened
war with Spain by II iudiciously timed
display of backing water. II is now re-
ported that the Spanish ships not only
reached the island Of zap, one of the
Carolines, ahead OF the German gmbuat
but also sent party ashore who formally
occupied the island and llniste,l
the flag OF Spain, lowering the
same at sunset in accordance with cstnb-
lshed customs; and that, after the flag
had been lowered, the German gunboat
landed a party who proceeded despite the
protest of the Spaniarls, 10 run up the
colors of their nation. The special does
not go into these details, hut simply says
that towing to the Spanish ships having
arrived three days before the German
gunboat" Emperor William has decided
that the island shall be given up to Spain.
This concession. it is thought payes the
way for arbitration and pcaeeablc SET
Element of all difficulties between the two
nations.
