The Failure Of Natal.

To the African native the egtab-

He streams in, Offering his cheap
though not very regular labor, and
supplying all his own wants at the
very smallest expenditure OF toll.
Where he multiplies, however, the
British race begins to consider labor
of all but the highest kinds dishonor-
able, and from the moment that a
white population win not work in the
fields, on the roads, in the mines, in
the factories, its doom is practically
sealed. 1t is limited to supplying
employees, merchants, contractors,
shopmen and foremen to the commu-
nifty.
Sooner or later the black race will
be educated to a point at which it
will demand and receive a share in
those employments and in the gov
eminent. Whenever that happens
the white race will either be absorbed
or disappear. The mass will gradu-
ally depart, but a few who have lost
the sense of superiority will remain,

may be, a few thousand, mulattoes

The opposition to the ~annexing
of the Hawaiian Islands put their
arguments upon very narrow and
inconsistent grounds. At times
they argue for the ''rights" of ex-
Queen Lilioukalani, and at times
for the ''rights" of the Princess
Kaiulani. although the claims of
the two cannot well be coexistent;
while the advocacy of monarchical
pretensions by citizens of the
United States is an absurdity in
any case, and is particularly absurd
as regards the Sandwich Islands in
view of the facts regarding the
Hawaiian monarchy and succession.
At other times the opponents of
annexation plead for the natives, as
if their coming under the flag of
the United States would be q mis-
fortune TO them instead Of the best
conceivable thing that could hap
pen TO them. There is no reason
whatever to think that the natives
would not heartily welcome the
union with America. Next the
opponents of annexation declare
that we would be compelled to
maintain a great navy to defend
the islsnds-a statement almost too
absurd for reply. A defiuative
American control of Hawaii, on
the contrary, will materially lessen
the naval force that our growing
commercial interests in the Pacific
would require if there were doubt
about the control of Hawaii, or IL
rival powers shared our rights and
privileges there. Our possession of
the key 70 the North Pacific would
make for permanent peace in that
quarter, and for comparatively
small armaments. From the "Prog-

A Radish Shaped Like a Human Hand.

"A kadish shaped Like a Human Hand.
| have before me at this momeut a
portrait of a radish, painted from life
by John Penoy, which is an exact
counterpart Of a human hand, tine
leaves at the top strongly reminding
one of the laces and frills which mca
formerly wore at their wrists. The
original of this portrait grew in
sandy soil in a garden at Harlem,
Holland, in the year 1872, and is now
preserved III spirits and kept in the
museum at Glandorp among other
vegetable, mineral and animal curl
osities. If the portrait is true to life,
the resemblance could not be more
striking. The fingers, the lines in
the palm, the nails, etc, are all per-
feet. The fingers all stand slightly
apart, just as yours would if you
were 20 hang your hand down at
your side and straighten them.
Another radish exactly resembling
