EXCURSION TO THE ISLANDS.

A very neatly gotten-up book
issued by Raymond and Whitcomb,
excursion agents of Boston, Mass,
gives particulars Of nine grand trips
already arranged. Included is one
to the Hawaiian islands, under per-
sonal escort to take place early next
year. The book says "this trip
affords one of the most novel and
exhilirating experiences of modern
travel, and now that the voyager can
surround himself with every COM
fort and luxury, the excursion is
one that should command general
attention. The party will sail
from San Francisco, February 9th,
arriving here on the 10th. From
that date to March 18th will be
spent on the islands and includes a
trip to the Volcano. The cost of
the excursion including everything
from the time of leaving San Fran
cisco, to returning to that place is
fixed at $235.

purposes is free of duty, provided
it is made unfit to drink by adding
ingredients to it, that will make it

am sorry that the editor of the

names-not for my own sake, but
for his. will not repeat them, as
will prevent as much as it is in my
power, foreign countries from seeing
the low standard of one of our

will open the eyes of many, who

THE PRESIDENTIAL ELECTION.

BY majority of the votes of the
American people on the 9th day of
the present month it was decided |
that Mr.. Harrison shall be Presi-
dent of the United States, in sue
cession to the present incumbent,
when the current term has expired.
Already the immense excitement
preceding and accompanying the
election is felt as thing of the fad
ing past in the States, and the gen.
eral routine of life proceeds pretty
much as before the excitement be-
gan, although to us it was matter
of doubt and speculation until
yesterday, as to which party had
triumphed. The steamship Ala
media brought the news, and now
we know. Those Of our people who
are Americans and are allied to the
Republican Party, and all those of
our polyglot community who may be
in sympathy with that party are
glad and jubilant, while Democrats
and Democratic sympathisers are in
more grave humor; for most Am
erican residents in this country take
as lively an interest in the quad
rennial Presidential election as if
they were at home.
According to a well-established
and a generally-recognised principle
in American politics, that "major-
ity rules" it now becomes the duty
of the losing party to submit with
good grace to the choice of the ma
jority, and accept Mr.. Harrison as
the President of the entire nation
and the whole people. This is a
duty which the great American
family is not usually slow to fulfil.
OF course, there may be few ex-
tremists in the Democratic party
who believe and say that because
Republican President has been
chosen the country is doomed and
ruin or disaster must follow. Sensi-
BILE men know better. They know
that whether Republican or Demo
cratic President is at the head of the
nation, in reality matters but lit
tie, and that the great interests of the
country are about equally safe in
the hands of either.

An old negro of Atlanta applied to the po-

old woman who was trying to conjure him.
He said he found nailed over his door red

that he knew it was ''conjure bag"

opened the little red bag, and it contained a

A Hundred pelndcd Girls.

There recently arrived in Los Angeles
about 100 young English girls who were
brought to the Pacific coast through the i'll
strumentality Of Miss Elizabeth Parker, an
English woman widely known for her phil
anthropic work in behalf of her sex. During
her visit to California year ago she saw the
need of good domestic help, other than the
Chinese, and she accordingly wrote home Of
the splendid chances awaiting intelligent
girls. Unfortunately for themselves, the
girls who came were not of the domestic
:lass required, but were principally govern
ssses, ladies' maids and nurses, a kind of help
seldom, needed in the west The result has
been disastrous to the girls, and many have
returned home. Others, who had not the
mems to return, are said to be in destitute
circumstances in Los Angeles. The head Of
the San Francisco Girls union says 5000
places could be- found in California alone for
as many good house servants, but none ut all

What would happen if London were sud-
denly caught in such blizzard az that which
overwhelmed New York! In that city, pre-
pared rs it is for heavy falls of SHOWS. 500
corpses have accumulated unburied, owing
to the impossibility of reaching the GENE
teries. But in London the dead might be left
without thought. The feeling of the liv-
ing would absorb every energy. The whole
city, if tho snow did not melt, might become
one gigantic mausoleum of the millions of its
inhabitants. When we read OF the digging
out of corpses standing frozen in the street
where the snow overwhelmed them we are
reminded of tho destruction of Pompeii and
Hcrculaneun, where the people were en-
tombed beneath. ashes Snow is as deadly
and more merciful How seldom we reflect
