THE CAROLINE ISLANDS.
The Territory Probably Seized by
the Monitor Monterey.
From the New York Herald.

The Caroline archipelago in lis entirety
comprises about. forty-eight groups of
islands. forty-three of which are of low
coral formation The other five are basal
tic and are surrounded by fringing reefs.
These five islands are mountainous, with
peaks In some cases attaining hight of
from 800 10 $500 feet above the sea. their
sides being clothed from base to summit
with trees and other vegetation.
Many of the principal groups of the Car
oline archipelago were discovered by the
enterprlsing navigators, chiefly Spanish, of
the sixteenth, seventeenth and eighteenth
centuries In 1886 Lazeano. a Spaniard,
discovered some of the islands in this
part of the Pacific. These he named Islas
Carolinas after the consort of Carlos ii
of Spain, and ihe name has since applied
10 the whole group.
To French and Russian navigators we
owe most of our geographical knowledge
of these islands. The most recent informa-
ton concerning them has been furnished
by British or German men-of-war, and by
the missionaries and traders residing in
The Caroline group.
The principal islands are zap, Kusaie
and Ponapi On these English, German
and American traders reside, and on nearly
an the islands of the group are scattered
many Protestant missionaries. The total
population Of the extensive archipelago
has been estimated at 22O00, but the dis
trlbuton of this number is erratic, owing
70 the fact that many of the smaller
islands are not inhabited, and others only
temporarily so, while the larger islands
are thickly peopled.
The natives are of light copper complex
ion They are straight. large and well
formed. The men are usually deliberately
tattooed. They range themselves under
various native rulers and petty chiefs ana
adjacent tribes are constantly al war.
Though they are generally apparently
friendly TO foreigners and often so about
unarmed, il cannot be said that they are
entirely to be trusted. Their weapons are
knives, spears, clubs and sings. Their
canoes are of graceful design. formed of
planks, sewed together The larger boats
are weatherly and fast in smooth water.
The natives live in large wooden houses.
and at zap the villages are paved with
stones. Against the houses of the latter
place the richer natives put the extraor-
binary money found. perhaps. only in
these islands. IL is composed of large
disks of arragonite, often Of great size
six feet in diameter a foot thick and
about three tons In weight. This money

rice growers now report the mortality
among their fields hands as heavy. Left
TO shift for themselves under the new
conditions, coarse cotton Sacking is about
all that the most industrious of them can
afford to buy, with wages low and large
families to care for. They get overheated
by working so long in the soggy ground
then the river winds blow up fresh and
they take cold. The fittest survive, and
seemingly there are enough and to spare
of the fittest but many succumb to the
exposure. traveller who visited last
summer a big rice plantation, the owner
Of which lived a hundred miles away in
the city, said that one of the most appeal
ing sights he ever saw was a negro wo-
man lying in a high fever in one of these
isolated cabins out in the marsh, totally
alone with nobody to hand her even a
drink of water, and taking it all just as
a matter OF course, expecting neither doc
tor, nor nurse, nor anybody to come TO
the rescue. When the fever had run its
course if she survived she would get up
and go on with her task; if she got worse
and too weak to stir, she would have TO
stay where she was until some one hap
pened along.
The rtce-feld negroes are as Injured to
pains discomforts as they are free from
the dread and loathng of snakes and
crawling things that cause the upland
worker such concern.
Why don't you try and go to town and
see dentist about those teeth that trouble
you SOP" a sympathizer said to a woman
worker who was gathering up and tying
rice sheaves, doing 1t deftly methodically,
no one bundle bigger or smaller than an
other, each bound with a single swipe I'M
der of the wrist, and fastened securely and
tossed off TO its place with magic precision
of movement

A good proportion of the rice used on the
plantations in lower South Carolina is
separated from the husk in the old-fash-
toned primitive way, with mortar and pes
tic the mortar very often made of a tree
stump followed out to hold a bushel or
less of grain, and tine pestle of well-sea-
soned wood from the forest. To beat out
six pecks of rice was considered a days
task for a man in the old measurement,
and for a woman hand four pecks a dny,
each doing a half-acre field task beside
