Here is vast, unredecmcd Hol-
land Here is level area, vast and
rich enough to feed the world but
it lies alone, delicious land Of rest.
The great river cleayes swiftly
through it. in many channels, to
the sea. But man "hath not where
to set his loot" for thousands of
square miles to right or left, or far
away before him.
Two or three pretty little cities,
built upon stills, like Venice, are
dotted down here and there is the
tall sea grass. and you can hardly
discern them, they are so hidden,
as you sail past and out to the open
sea.
Strangely enough we saw some
hogs-wild ones, may be-rooting
in these reed-covered marshes and
in the water, up to their eyes, as we
sailed past and out-out into the
Gulf of Mexico. Millions of ducks
and geese and swan overhead only
hogs and alligators on the low, ooz-
ing banks that lie so low and close
that you might almost step ashore
as you sail past.
The mouth of the Mississippi: up which
the Spaniard sailed, is now meadow
An anchor, with a shaft 13 feet long and
a ring that you can creep through, was
found there recently, upheaved through
the grass. Islands rise, and sink and rise

The glowing sun is riding high
Amid the arches of the sky,
The dreamy air lies still,
No sound disturbs the leafy glade
Save that by busy woodbill made
Upon some ancient trunk, decayed-
Calm broods DER vale and hill.
In such an hour | love to stay
From hamts of toiling men away,
Mid forest depths profound;
There, in bliss of solitude.
Where no dull cares of earth intrude
And Nature brcathes sweet quictudC
The grand old trees around
The heart by daily cares oppressed
The wearied spirit findeth rest
As, pillowed on the sod,
With nought above but leaf and sky
And loving look of Heavenly Eye,

FINDING ONES WAYS on THE PRAI-
RIES.

To find the way for yourself to
new ranch across the prairie, or to
drive anywhere after dark is a feat
only attempted by the unwary.
"Love will find out a way" through
bolts and bars and PARENTAL inter
diction but Love itself would be
ballled on the prairie, where the
whole universe stretches in endless
invitation, and where there is abso-
lutely nothing to hinder" from go
ing in any direction that you please.
"Foller kind of n blind trail, one
mile east, and two mile south,n is
the the kind of direction usually
given in the vernacular, and so
closely does one cultivate the pow
ers of observation in Il county where
a bush may be u feature of the land
scape, and a tall sunhower a land
marx, that l am tempted to copy Il
verbatim the written directions sent
by friend by which we were to
find our way to her hospitable home:
-"Cross the river at the Howards'
turn to right, and follow dim trail
till you come to the ploughed ground
which you follow the top of the hill.
Follow the road on the west side of
a corn field, and then a dim trail
across the prairie to wire fence.
After you leave the wire fence, go
up little hill and down little hill
then up another till you reach a
road going south to DR.. Reads frame
house with n wall Of sod about it.
Through his door yard, and then
through some corn. Leave the road
after driving through the corn, and
angle to the right to the corner of
another corn field. Take the road
to the West of this corn, and 20
south, up hill, then turn to the
right and follow plain road west;
aiterward south, past Mr.. Dever's
homestead, frame house on the
right with Il stone house unroofed.
South, past Il corn field and plowed
ground on the right. The road
turns to the right, toward the west
for little way, then south, then
short distance east, and you reach
the guide post, which is near a
thrifty looking farm owned by Mr..
Bryant frame house, corn field,
wheat stacks, and melon patch.
At the guide post take the road 90
ing south, with corn field on the
right till you come to two roads.
Follow the right-hand road, Ca dim
trail at tirsD down the Hill, past
some hay-stacks, to the Usage orange
hedge Follow that to the creek
crossing, then through the grove of
OF sunlowers to Il sod house. Go
through the corn directly west fol-
lowing the creek to the crossing
near our house"
The distance was sixteen miles.

A Negro Turning White.

Tom Jones isa negro, - years old.
Some time ago curious white spots be-

ago Jones arm began to turn white, and
soon after large white spots appeared all
over his body. His friends suggested
calling physician, but he refused, say
that freedom had come and the Lord in

ing yells Of savage triumph, which
made the lady shudder, and Ismail
clinch his teeth grimly.
Just then sudden turn around a
sharp corner showed them, high on
the rocky ridge beyond, the fort for
which they were making. But be-
tween them and it yawned hid
eous chasm several hundred feet in
depth, spanned by one of those peri
lous bridges which one sees also in
South America, consisting merely OF
two ropes, one above another, the
lower for the feet and the upper for
the hands. Hanging above that
dreadful gulf, the two cords looked
no bigger than spiders threads; but
this was their only chance.
Snatching off his scarf, Ismail
blindfolded Mrs. Harcourt with it,
and bidding Minnie shut her eyes
and cling tightly to his neck, he led
the mother forward to the ropes,
placed her hand on the up"er one
and her foot ON the lower, and told
her to go forward and fear nothing
until she felt herself on firm ground.
Then he stepped in front of her, and
holding the child in one arm went
fearlously along the terrible passage.
At that moment the Alghans
came over the brow of the hill be-
hind, and raised a howl of fury as
they saw their prey about to escape.
One man levelled his rifle at the
fugitives, but instantly lowered it
again, for they could not fire at
Ismail without the risk Of hitting
Mrs. Harcourt or Minnie, whose
ransom would make them rich for
life. 1t was possible to take the
pair alive the Afghans were determ-
ined to do it.
And now the excitement of this
race for life and death rose to Il
height. Down came the pursuers
with frightful yells, plunging head
long through the snow, while the
fugitives crawled foot by foot along
he perilous bridge. Now they were
halfway across, now three-quarters
and now with a long deep breath OF
relief, the brave Beloochi set down
Minnie upon the opposite bank, and
placed Mrs. Harcourt beside her.
But as he rose to his feet again,
three rifles cracked at once, and
poor Tsmail fell heavily upon his
face among the stones.
"Shavash!" (well donc) roared
the Afghan leader Forward, com
rads, there is NJ one to stop us
now,"
Shouting wildly, the cruel gang
dartcd toward the bridge, and were
already some distance along it, when
Ismail Bee, mortlIly wounded
though he was, rliSaI him5 1t on
his knees with a last effort, and with
one furious slash Of his dagger cut
the upper rope right throu 5h. Oas
wild cry rang through the air as thC
fierce pursucrs fell hcadlong dowH
the black unfnthomablc depth
below, and then all was still.
That very evening Colonel Ilar
court, having seen his wife and child
safely established in the fort, SAILED
forth at the head Of Il party of hi,
best men, and brought in the body
of poor Ismail, which was buried
next day with military honors un
der tree in Il corner Of the grea'
court, with simple wooden cross
over it, upon which the Colonel en-
gravcd with his own hand:

POLITICAL MALIGNlTY.


Last evenings Bulletin" contained |
local, also communicated article, re-
lating to the death Of a native named |
Kalalakoa at the Station House the !
previous night. Both articles are highly
colored and the facts distorted to serve
political ends. Our local columns con-
tain full and true recital of the facts.
1t would have been well if our evening
contemporary had taken pains to ascer-
tain these exactly before lending itself to
a grossly slanderous attack upon Mr..
Fred. H. Hayselden, one of the candi-
dates for Honolulu on the Government
ticket. But instead Of doing this, it took
things for granted, even to the holding OF
a purely imaginary inquest; and, to
crafty the malice of some enemy of Mr..
HayselSen, it published scandalous
and untruthful charge against him to the
effect that he was accessory to the death
of this man, just as in recent issue the
same paper made itself the medium OF
an insulting and offensive anonymous
attack upon Brother Bertram and the
other Brothers Of the Society of Mary,
for the musical part in the Christmas
services at the Catholic Cathedral taken
by the St. Louis College band under
their direction.
1t appears to be true that the deceased
was locked up on charge of drunken
ness; it is also true that he had one
drink at native political meeting, but
it is not true that he became intoxicated
there. The man appears to have OBJ
tanned liquor elsewhere, and to have
wandered off to Pauoa Valley, where he
was subsequently found. The post NOR
! tenn examination disclosed the fact that
he died of fatty degeneration of the heart,
and it is exceedingly probable that his
death was accelerated by the liquor he
drank acting upon a diseased vital
organ.
These facts the Bulletin might have
s3certained and set forth if it desired to
promulgate the truth; but an opportunity
! would not have been afforded to Opposi-
! ton politicians to ventilate their spleen
against Mr.. Hayselden. 1t remains
only to say that Mr.. Hayselden denies
in theSmost emphatic manner, that he
either ordered, paid for, or distributed
any drink at the meeting in question
which was called in the ordinary way tc
organize the local campaign on the Gov
eminent ticket, and where he remained
only a short time Mr.. Hayselden is NJ
more responsible for Kalalakoa's deatf
than are any of the Opposition candi
Gates. 1t is a most regrettable event
but it does not justify in any degre'
whatever the gross misrepresentation
and the malignant party use made of i
in the Bulletin"

SUDDEN DEATH.
A native Dies of Heart Disease at the
Station House.


Between and / O'Clock on Monday
afternoon native named Kalalakoa,
flower peddler, was found in Pauoa Val
ley in an intoxicated condition, and was
taken in an express to the Station House.
He was placed in No. 2 cell and closely
watched. Late in the evening Deputy
Marshal Dayton visited the cell and ex-
amined the man, finding that his heart
had nearly ceased beating. He at once
sent for DIR. E. c. Webb, but life was
extinct before that gentleman arrived.
At the request of Mr.. Dayton, DIR. Webb
made a post mortem examination yes
terday morning, the following being his
report:
"HoNOLULU, December %, 1885.
''This is to certify that have this day
held a post mortem on the body OF q
native known as Kalalakoa *, about So
years of age, and find he died of fatty
degeneration and subsequent rupture in
the left auricle.
''E. Cook WEBB, NJ. D."
In addition to this, DIR. Webb in
formed a representative of this paper,
who was present at the post morte m,
that all the other organs of the
deceased were in healthy con-
dition. He could not have been a
man who drank to any great extent, as
the liver was. perfectly healthy. The
left auricle of the heart was as thin as
tissue paper, and there was a small hole
in it.
From inquiries made it appears that
/ the deceased attended the meeting of
campaign lunas on Monday, and while
there had a glass of liquor. He slept
| after it, and later on went into town.
While there he drank considerable liquor,
and was finally found as above stated.
! He was we'll known round town ~ n ped
dler of flowers, and his wife made and
sold leis. He lived in Nuuanu Valley,
near the ice works, and leaves a widow
and three young children in destitute
circumstances. DR.. Webb and Deputy
DAYTON generously contributed towards
the support of the widow and children.
