Music,

The singing of the native Hawaiians
is always melodious and pleasing. The
Kanaka has a quick ear for music and
learns new airs with facility. Yet, nc
matter what selection is sung by the
natives, and no matter how closely the
notes are followed, the singing is al
ways peculiarly plaintive, due, nc
doubt, to some subtle, indefinite quail

more cheerful. The taste Of the Amer.
lean people has kept pace with the age

something new in the way Of a picture,
a draping, a piece of furniture or other
form Of mural decoration. One Of the
latest Of these has been given to the
world by the celebrated artist, Muville,
in a series Of four handsome porcelain
game plaques. Not for years has any
thing az handsome in this line been
seen. The subjects represented By
these plaques are American Wild
Ducks, American Pheasant, American
Quail and English Snipe. They are
handsome paintings and are especially
designed for hanging on dining-roonl
walls, though their richness and beauty
entities them to a place in the parlor
Of any home. These original plaques
