For the Boys.

The way in which boy uses his leis-
ure often determines what sort of man
he will be. Two men stood at the same
table in large factory in Philadelphia,
working at the same trade. Having an
hour for their incoming every day. each
Undertook to use it in accomplishing a
definite purpose; each persevered for
about the same number Of months, and
each won success at last. One Of these
TIVE mechanics used his daily leisure
hour in working out the invention OF a
maehine for sawinga block of wool into
almost any desired shape. When his in.
vention was complete he sold the patent
for a fortune, changed his workmans 8
apron for broadcloth suit, aud moved
out of tenement house into brown
stone front. The other man--ahft did
he do? Well, he spent an hour each day
during most of year in the very diff.
cult undertaking of teaching little dog
to stand on his hind feet aud dance a jig
while he played . tune. At last &C
counts he was working ten hours day
st the same trade and at his old wages,
and finding fault with the fate that made
his fellow-workmen rich while leaving
him poor. Leisure minutes may bring
golden grain to mind as we'll as purse, if
one hsrvest wheat instead Of chaff.

Presentation Canes.

The Australia, which arrived yester-
day, brought, among other things, a case
from Consul w. J. de Gress, Hawaiian
Consul 1T the city OF Mexico, containin G
four deliberately carved canes for presen-
tation, one to His Majesty the King, one
to His EXcellency Mr.. Gibson, one to
Mr.. Il. W. Lame, Mexican Consul, and
another to Mr. Il. j. Creighton The
canes We have seen are of coffee wood,
finely polished, the monogram of the re-
cipient and the Mexican arms finishing a
scroll OF exquisite figure carving. The
whole forms a work of art which reflects
great credit upon the Mexican carver,
and cannot but be highly appreciated by
the recipient. Colonel de Gress has a
fine war record, having fought valiantly
for his country on the Union side in the
late American rebellion. He has done
good service in bringing the resources
and capabilities of these Islands before
the Mexican people, among whom he
now resides, and although there may be
no direct intercourse between the two
countries at present the time is not far
distant, we are convinced, when we shall
reap the benefit OF his intelligent and
faithful service. Hawaii is well repre-
scented abroad; but among its Consular
corps there is no superior to Colonel de

The Planters Monthly.

| We have received the Planters
| Monthly for December, and desire to
! compliment the editor, Mr.. Whitney,
on the improved appearance of that pub
LEGATION under his management. The
! contents are varied and instructive. An
article on the Opium Law deals fairly
with the subject from the anti-opium
point of view, ond indeed does not speak
at all too harshIy of the "crude and
poorly framed bill to license the sale of
opium in this Kingdom" passed ut the
late session OF the Legislature. There
are laws and laws, and while we are
prepared to approve an honest and in
telligent measure for controlling the
opium traffic we are not prepared to APP
prove or even palliate law which lacks
these characteristics. The Opium Ii
cense Law as it stands is essentially
vicious, and can only lead to jobbery
and corruption. Under these circum-
stances it is like thrashing the air to
discuss the moral side OF the opium traf-
tiC. The selected articles are valuable
to planters and landowners generally.
4 contribution from Mr. Lubker, Gov
eminent forester, on the cultivation of
Australian waffle trees, is timely
paper. The use OF sugar as an ingredi-
ent in mortar is brought under notice by
correspondent and in clippings from
the London ''Times." An Englishman
writing to the Mayor OF Charleston after
the late earthquake states that "the
hardness OF the old Roman cement,
which is equal to that of the stone it
binds together, is believed to be due to
the addition OF saccharine matter.
Water to which sugar has been added
will dissolve t = times as much Ii me as
pure water. Recent experiments wit h
sweetened mortar have proved that walls
may be built so strong that they cannot
be torn down with anything but explo-
sives." Consul General Putnam's re-
port on the production of sugar and rice
on the Hawaiian Islands is published in
full. The ADVERTISER recently referred
to the preparation of ramie for market
in New Orleans, and the Planters
Monthly" supplements this by an add
dress delivered in that city by Mr.. Jules
Juvenal on the history, cultivation and
utilization of ramie, ''the richest of all
plants, for it poss esses wealth of growth,
wealth OF development and wealth OF
fibre" We shall not recapitulate all the
articles in this issue of the planters

Sugar Shipments.

We San Francisco Merchant recently
drew attention TO the large quantity OF
sugar shipped overland from San Fran
cisco during the present year, the total
amount for the first eight months being
81, 2S6, $40 pounds. For each of the two
subsequent months, the quantity of
sugar exported overland has exceeded
100000 pounds, making u total OF
100000 pounds, or 10000 tons of
sugar sent for consumption to Eastern
points. 1t is stated that the influx OF
sugar from the California refneries has
been the cause of the closing of the st.
Louis Refinery. 1t is certain that the
sugar market is in a demoralized con-
dition, and there is no immediate out
look for any improvement. A Congress
of sugar growers and refiners is shortly
to be held in Berlin, when the condition
OF the market will be discussed, and pro-
posals made to check the production in
excess of requirements, and to adopt
some means for obtaining reliable infor-
nation as to crops and supplies.
The overland exports from San Fran
cisco for the first ten months of this year
were as follows:

Let Me Have a Mild

THE ABOVE REQUEST il HEARD DAILY IN
L cigar stores, saloons AHA other places where
cigars sold, fuI II l. ali Uudisputed fact that
most smokers prefer mill cigar, and that those
who have for d long time smoked strong cigars.
thoroughly in ured the stomach and impaired the
nervous system, surely want mild cigar if they
could ind the right kind.
How many thousands Of smokers who suffer
from loss Of appetite, headsche, nervous irrita
bllIty, asthna, etc, and who have tried all pos
stble remedies without success, might he cured
If they knew that their suferlngs were caused by
the incorporate use Of strong cigars, and that
they should only smoke mild an properly pre-
pared ones.
II Is fact that not all mild cigars agree we'll
with smokers, for in most cases there Is lack
of care the selection of the tobacco, and often
the necessary experience for 1t Is wanting, yet
there is one brand which suits che most fastid-
iOuS smoker, and that is
