we cannot say that they all keep
the same hours precisely but be-
tween them all we find that our
little affairs there, 10y day, are
getting rather mixed; and we have
now made up our mind that there
must be a final and deadly en-
counter at once.

"And what is so rare as day
in June? Then, if ever, come
perfect days; then Heaven tries
the earth If it be in tune, and over
it softly her warm ear lays:
whether we look or whether we
listen, we hear life murmur, or
see it glisten every clod feels
stir of might, an instinct within it
that reaches and towers, and,
cropping blindly above it for light,
climbs to a soul in grass and flow
ers; the flush of life may we'll be
seen thrilling back over hills and
valleys; the cowslip startles in
meadows green, the butter-cup
catches the sun in its charlice,
and there's never a leaf nor a
blade too mean to be some happy
creatures palace"
That's our JAMES Russell Lo-
well and dear New England; but
he is not sleeping on her hill sides!
he lies in Westminster Abbey.
Requiescat in pace.
We know a New England June;
it is our birthright. The
sun was climbing up the
hill; there were crowds of
violets: we could fill our tire.
Now, the sun is declining! and
we know February day in Ko-
hala. 1t is II little past the mid
die of the month; new moon is
in the sky; violets are OH our
writing table; but not the vioiet5
of our childhood-Oh, no! 1t
would be impossible for us to
imagine more beautiful day
than this. whether we look, or
whether we listen, we hear life
murmur or see it glisten." To the
sea our gaze and all is magnificent
in robe of steady, solid blue, bor-
rowed from the sky; and that sky
is clear and speekless. In front
of our door, facing the south, the
"fush of life may well be seen,
thrilling back over hills and val
leys." This magnificent green
country of Hawaii this little, rich
North Kohala!
Why, we saw one afternoon of
last week all the prismatic colors
grouped in the middle of the sea,
and not sign of bow. What
were we to do! We watched in
tently to discover what right the
waves had to paint their faces
with heavens dyes in that man
nef. After a little we found an
arc extending a few yards above
the horizon; but heavy masses of
clouds blanketed all the rest
That's Makapala and that's one
feature of our little all-alive vii

there's compensation here straight
from the skies.

"Where life is, richest life is

You may wager your bank &C
count on that proposition and not

81 am Raphael, one of the
seven holy angels, which present
the prayers of the saints, and
which go in and out before the
glory of the Holy One"
"Look upon the rainbow, and
praise him that made it; very
beautiful it is in the brightness
thereof. 1t compasseth the heaven
about with glorious circle, and
the hands of the Most High have
Bonded it."
We have had grand storms of late
floods of rain fine for cane, and
they too were beautiful. We love
come shine, come storm every
thing is good in its time;" and
there goes Multi whistle at IL m.
that knows we speak the truth by
