Thirty Merchants Are Engaged In the
Trade ON the Island of Lipari.
Pumice, as is well known, is of vol.
canic origin, being trachytic lava
which has been rendered light by the
escape of gases when in molten state.
1t Is found on most of the shores of the
Tyrhenian sea and elsewhere, but is ut
present almost exclusively obtained
from the little island of Lipari. Most Of
the volcanoes Of Lipari have elected
pumaceous rocks, but the best stone is
all the product Of one mountain. Monte
Chirica, nearly 1900 feet i'm height,
with its two accessory craters. The dis
trict in which the <pdnnce 10 scayated
covers an area of three square miles. 1t
has been calculated that about 1000
hands are engaged in this industry, 900
of whom are employed in extricating
the mineral.
Pumice is brought to tie surface in
large blocks or in baskets aud is carried
thus either to the neighboring village
or TO the seashore to be taken there in
boats. The supply is said to be prac-
tically inexhaustible. Pumice is used
not merely for securing and cleansing
purposes, but also for polishing in nu-
merous trades, hence the fact that the
powdered pumice exported exceeds in
weight the block pumice. Between 20
and 80 merchants are engaged in the
pumice trade on the island. London

Although the burying ground at the
Boylston street end of the Common is
not the most ancient in town, nor
specially noted for the resting place Of

place. 1t is worthy of note that when

the South Burying ground, as indica.

In the evening. after dinner. about

was that soldiers were marching through
the town, and we hurried to the win

pie were seated under the palms. Open
carriages were passing up and down on
each side, and men ON horseback. Very

The air was hot and close, used up by

where we stood. 1t was hopeless TO try
to sleep again, and we waited by the
window. OF sudden bell sounded
loud above the voices of the crowd. At
once the band was hushed, carriages
were stopped, the people ON the chairs
under the palms were on their feet, and
not man but stood, hat in hand. We
looked TO the end of the Paseo, for ev-
erybody was looking that way. From
out the doors of the Moorish minaret
crowned church came a procession of
men in white surplices, with Pickering
candles and tall lanterns, and a priest
carrying the sacrament, under its golden
veil, to the dying. Men who moment
before had been drinking fell upon their
knees, and we could hear nothing but
the tinkling bell and the murmur of q
