Filled with hatred of all honest birds, the sparrow makes war upon our native song-bird- s, and, according to the testimony taken by the committee, he is rapidly exterminating them. Meanwhile he pays no attention to worms, and thus entirely ignores the contract under which he was brought to thi3 counlry. lie is a faithless, graminivorous, murderous thief, and even the most hardened crow looks upon him with contempt and disgust. This is a terrible indictment, but until the committee of ornithologists submits against the sparrow to the public it will not do to assume that the indict- ment is a just one. In behalf of the spar- row it may be urged that he did his full Jduty in regard to the measuring-worms- , and totally exterminated those pests in this 'city. Is it fair to ignore this fact, and is it reasonable to complain that the sparrow no longer feeds on measuring-worm- s when the simple truth is that there are no more measuring-worm- s for him to eat? In the absence of measuring-worm- 3 the spar- row ha contracted the habit of eating grain. This is also the habit of many of our native singing-bird- s, whose threatened extermination by the sparrow is bewailed by the committee. In what respect is the graminivorous sparrow worse than other graminivorous birds? Of course, if he is more numerous than other birds he will eat more grain, but is it just to call him a criminal because he multiplies more rap- idly than our native birds? That the sparrow is exterminating our song-bird- s may be doubted. He does not exterminate the English son-bird- s, and if it be true that as soon as ire reaches this 'country he plunges into murder and other crimes, we must make the humiliating ad-'missi- on j that there is something demoral- izing to ftirds as well as to statesmen Jin our political atmosphere. Doubtless 'the sparrow fights occasionally with other birds, and, owing to hi3 skill and pluck, he usually defeats them. There are, how- ever, a good many singing-bird- s still left, and if they are in process of extermination by the sparrow the process is a very slow ne. It must be remembered that an in dlctment is not a conviction, and until the sparrow has had a fair trial with the aid of able counsel and been duly and legally convicted we cannot treat him as a con- demned criminal. But, granting all that is said against the sparrow, how is he to be exterminated? It is idle to talk of shooting him, for he is too small to be hit by the average sports- man at a greater distance than three yards. Even the experienced German sportsmen who go forth from this city to the wilds of Long Island, accompanied by Spitz dogs, rarely succeed in hitting a sparrow. Poison, too, is out of the question, for, as One of the committee mournfully remarked, the Australians have already tried to their sparrows, and have in .so Sc;son poisoned their chickens, a result as unsatisfactory as it was unexpected. There remains but one means of ex terminating the sparrow. To the cat alone can we look for efficient aid in carry- ing out the extermination policy. When sparrows are abundant an active cat will kill from three to four daily. There are at the lowest estimate 900,000,000 spar- rows now in this country. Let us -- ssume that one cat can kill three sparrows in twenty-fou- r hour. It will therefore take 800,000,000 cats to exterminate the spar- rows in a single day. It cannot, however, be assumed that every cat will be ready to kill its three sparrows, or that the spar- rows will so distribute themselves as to place three of- - their number within reach of every active cat At least half of the cats will prefer steal- ing milk or taking care of their families to killing sparrows, and at least half of the sparrows will keep out of the way of the cats. In order, there- fore, to promptly exterminate 900,000.000 sparrows we must provide ourselves with 1,200,000,000 cats, or say twenty-fou- r cats to every human inhabitant of this coun- try. Even were this to be done we could not trust the cats, who might at any mo- ment refuse to touch the sparrows, and refer to become graminivorous and totally S estroy our crops. It will be at once seen that to supply ourselves idth" twenty-fou- r cats apiece would be madness. Bad as the sparrows may be, they are infinitely better than cats. Let us accept the inevitable with a good grace, and cease to abuse the spar- row. We brought him here and here he will remain. It is impossible to ex- terminate him, and the sooner the ornith- ologists recognize the fact the better. 3 t

ately and wickedly devours grain, andthus ruins the farmer's most valuablecrops. Filled with hatred of all honestbirds, the sparrow makes war upon ournative song-bird- s, and, according to thetestimony taken by the committee, he israpidly exterminating them. Meanwhilehe pays no attention to worms, and thusentirely ignores the contract under whichhe was brought to thi3 counlry. lie is afaithless, graminivorous, murderous thief,and even the most hardened crow looksupon him with contempt and disgust.

This is a terrible indictment, but untilthe committee of ornithologists submits

against the sparrow to the publicit will not do to assume that the indict-ment is a just one. In behalf of the spar-row it may be urged that he did his fullJduty in regard to the measuring-worms-,

and totally exterminated those pests in this'city. Is it fair to ignore this fact, and isit reasonable to complain that the sparrowno longer feeds on measuring-worm- s

when the simple truth is that there are nomore measuring-worm- s for him to eat? Inthe absence of measuring-worm- 3 the spar-row ha contracted the habit of eatinggrain. This is also the habit of many ofour native singing-bird- s, whose threatenedextermination by the sparrow is bewailedby the committee. In what respect is thegraminivorous sparrow worse than othergraminivorous birds? Of course, if he ismore numerous than other birds he willeat more grain, but is it just to call him acriminal because he multiplies more rap-idly than our native birds?

That the sparrow is exterminating oursong-bird- s may be doubted. He does notexterminate the English son-bird- s, and ifit be true that as soon as ire reaches this'country he plunges into murder and othercrimes, we must make the humiliating ad-'missi-on

j

that there is something demoral-izing to ftirds as well as to statesmenJin our political atmosphere. Doubtless'the sparrow fights occasionally with otherbirds, and, owing to hi3 skill and pluck,he usually defeats them. There are, how-ever, a good many singing-bird- s still left,and if they are in process of exterminationby the sparrow the process is a very slow

ne. It must be remembered that an indlctment is not a conviction, and until thesparrow has had a fair trial with the aidof able counsel and been duly and legallyconvicted we cannot treat him as a con-demned criminal.

But, granting all that is said against thesparrow, how is he to be exterminated? Itis idle to talk of shooting him, for he istoo small to be hit by the average sports-man at a greater distance than three yards.Even the experienced German sportsmenwho go forth from this city to the wilds ofLong Island, accompanied by Spitz dogs,rarely succeed in hitting a sparrow.Poison, too, is out of the question, for, asOne of the committee mournfully remarked,the Australians have already tried to

their sparrows, and have in .soSc;son poisoned their chickens, a result asunsatisfactory as it was unexpected.

There remains but one means of exterminating the sparrow. To the catalone can we look for efficient aid in carry-ing out the extermination policy. Whensparrows are abundant an active cat willkill from three to four daily. There areat the lowest estimate 900,000,000 spar-rows now in this country. Let us -- ssumethat one cat can kill three sparrows intwenty-fou- r hour. It will therefore take800,000,000 cats to exterminate the spar-rows in a single day. It cannot, however,be assumed that every cat will be ready tokill its three sparrows, or that the spar-rows will so distribute themselves as toplace three of- - their number withinreach of every active cat At leasthalf of the cats will prefer steal-ing milk or taking care of theirfamilies to killing sparrows, and atleast half of the sparrows will keep outof the way of the cats. In order, there-fore, to promptly exterminate 900,000.000sparrows we must provide ourselves with1,200,000,000 cats, or say twenty-fou- r catsto every human inhabitant of this coun-try. Even were this to be done we couldnot trust the cats, who might at any mo-

ment refuse to touch the sparrows, andrefer to become graminivorous and totally

Sestroy our crops.It will be at once seen that to supply

ourselves idth" twenty-fou- r cats apiecewould be madness. Bad as the sparrowsmay be, they are infinitely better thancats. Let us accept the inevitable with agood grace, and cease to abuse the spar-row. We brought him here and here hewill remain. It is impossible to ex-

terminate him, and the sooner the ornith-ologists recognize the fact the better.

Berlin, Jan. 17. In the Congo Conference three reasons were given forthe participation of America in thedeliberations. First, because Americawas the first Power to officially rec-

ognize tho African International Association; second, because the population of America includes 6,000,000negroes, whose parent country isAfrica; and third, because Americansmainly have explored the country.

Madrid. Jan. 17. Another severeshock of earthquake was experiencedat Granada at 10 o'clock last night,causing great alarm among the in- -

habitants. King Alfonso is visitingValez Malaga to-da- y. The heavysnowstorm and frost continue. InMalaga the most severe snowstormsince 1861 prevails. Tlie sugar-can- e

crop is destroyed aue orange and olivegroves are damaged. The situationis most critical. The eartn is againtrembling. The wind and snow destroyed the huts of those who fled tothe open fields from, the cities and(owns for safety. At Frigi liana,twenty-seve- n miles east of Malaga, thepeople, rendered desperate by coldand huiiirer. attacked the houses oflandowners. Another severe shockof earthquake has been experiencedat Canillas.

The War in the Soailau.London, Jan. 17. A dispatch from

Oakdul savs that thirty camelsdropped dead on the march fromHowenjatt. The troops suffered severely. A majority of the waterskinsleaked, and the men, yielding totheir thirst, exhausted their rationsof water prematurely. Very few fellout of line and the condition of themen under their circumstances wassplendid. All bore their hardshipsbravely, as is evinced by their singing as cheerily as their parchedthroats would permit. They arekeenly desirous to fight.

San Francisco, Jan. 17. Now thatthe Senate has organized, and business at the Legislature can go on, thechief matter which engrosses thepublic mind is tho selection of aUnited States Senator for California.At Sacramento partizansnip runshigh. The adherents of candidatesare so firm in their purpose that it ispossible for them to lose sight of thegreat interests of the Republicanparty, and the still greater interestsof the State at large. It is a remarkable fact that nearly every one hascentered upon Governor Leland Stanford as the one man most availablein the interests of Republican harmony, and for the material advan-tages of California.

Washington, Jan. 17. The speechmade by Senator Morgan in the ex-

ecutive session of the Senate yester-day, in favor of the NicaraguanTreaty, is regarded as one of thestrongest arguments in favor of theratification of that instrument thathas yet been presented.

The new schooner at White's yard,at North Beach, San Francisco, isIntended for the Hawaiian Islandtrade.

The tug Alert will leave San Fran-cisco for Honolulu about the 23rdinstant.

The Hawaiian bark Kale, from SanFrancisco June 1st for Dunkirk,arrived out on the 30th October. Thisis the last of the California wheat fleetof 18S3-S- 4.

It is not, therefore, matter for surprisethat so soon as the country people becameaware of the existence of arrangamentsby which they could, at the expense ofthose by whom the scheme was originated,emigrate to another country, they shouldhave eagerly grasped the opportunityafforded them of bettering their condition.For ourselves, we are disposed to believethat the emigration project is a good onefor those of our distressed countrymenand womeo, who are fitted to engage inthe occupations for which they willbe required in Hawaii. At any rate,they need-- not fctay here to meettheir death by cold and hunger. Thymay in Hawaii earn a livelihood, the menin cultivating the fields, and the womenby washing and in other occupationssuited to their sex. In Japan they risaearly in the morning and are constantlyengaged in the fields, allowing themselveslittle or no time for diversion either insummer or winter, and yet their diligenceand industry are so inadequately re-

warded that they are unable to gain suf-

ficient money for subsistence. Thaclasses who engage in agriculture, cannottherefore ba reproached for the unhappyposition in which they find them selves;the country itself must bear the blame. Ifany other territory can supply them withsufficient food and clothing, in return forthe exercise of the same efforts that proveso unproductive in their own country,then we should say that it would be amost judicious step to get there as fast aspossible, so that they may be enabled to J

pass the rest of their lives in the enjoy- - j

ment of happiness and prosperity.We have heard, however, more than

once, that among the farmers and labor-

ers who applied for permission to emigrate to Hawaii, there were many stu-

dents and other people, ill fitted to engagein agricultural labor. We have reason tobelieve that there is truth in this. Amongthe mere educated classes of our countrymen, the ambition to visit foreign coun- -

tvien prevails to an almost incredible extent, and it is not by any means surpris-

ing thai the eyes of Home of the moreenterprising have been turned towardsHawaii. We do net at all wish to discourage them from going to Hawaii, butwe should like to say a few words to themby way of admonition. It may be as-

sumed that a large proportion of thesepersons nave nad trie Denent oi an education extending over many years; theymay have engaged in various occupationshere from which they derived a largeamount of experience and ability, and acertain amount of wealth. They maypossibly be able to command a few hund-

red yen for the purpose of defraying aforeign journey. But, as they would belanded in the country of their adoptionin a penniless condition," if they hud thetemerity to enter upon any such enter-prise, they are compelled m the meantimeto restrain their desire to see the world.The only course open to them is to availthemselves of any opportunity for obtain-ing the guarantee of employment in an-

other land, trusting to the prospect oftheir being able not only to provide them-

selves with food and clothing, but to layby small sums now and then for use infuture undertakings.

But if those people think Hawaii is aplace where they can attain their object,they are very much mistaken. Let themlook at the condition as well as the phys-ical features of the Islands. They form avery small territory situated betweenJapan and America, many thou-sand miles from any other peopledregion. Their inhabitants may enjoy asmild a spring as that of any other country,but they do not know the rain or thebreeze of civilized lands. They can effectpostal communication with San Franciscoonly by means of a steamer, --whose pas-

sages are made at such long intervals thatthe number of voyages run in a year couldbe enumerated with ease on the fingers.And this is the only means by which theirpeople can obtain information as to theouter world, for no submarine cable as yetconnects Hawaii with other countries, andits inhabitants must perforce remain ig-

norant for months of all the events thattranspire outside their narrow borders,however interesting and important theseevents may be. Even the steamers thatply between this country and the UnitedStates, tnough they frequently pass nearthe Islands, do not, except on very specialoccasions, touch at them.

The population of the various islandsof Hawaii is said to be 58,000, of whom4,500 are white. As both Europeans andAmericans thus bulk pretty largelyin the total of the inhabitants, theIslands are not wholly destitute of themachinery of civilization. They pos-

sess a nmmber of steamers, a railwaywhich extends only for a few miles a

JAPANESE IDEAS OF HAWAII.

A translation from a native Japanese paper of an article on "Emigration and Emigrants" appears inanother column of this issue of theAdvertiser. The translation istaken from the Japan Weekly Mailof 20th Decrmber last. What it hasto say about the emigration of labor-ers from Japan to Hawaii is eminently satisfactory because it notonly shows that the enterprise ispopular in Japan, but also recapitulates circumstances which make thepresent time highly suitable to it.Japan, like every other country inthe world at the present moment, issuffering severely from the generaldepression in the value ot all sorts ofproduce. Her agriculturalists are ina bad way,' and the chance of gettinggood and steady wages here is therefore likely to be more than usuallyattractive to agricultural laborersUnder such circumstances there needbe no fear of our being able to obtaina large supply of that much neededcommodity labor from that source.

Tho latter part of the article, whichoffers some sound advice to personswho are not laborers, but who mayhave formed the intention of cominghere has not the same personal interest for us but some parts of it areso highly amusing that we have reprinted it in full. The advice it givesis shrewd and sensible. For thepresent at least, it is not likely thatmany Japanese who are neither agricultural laborers nor domestic servants will find much scope for enter

- prise or many ways of making a living In this country. Some of thesupposed facts, however, which areadduced in support of the editor'sadvice to his fellow countrymen arehighly ludicrous and display a sadignorance of matters Hawaiian.They are reproduced without comment in the Weekly Mail, so we maysuppose that the editor of that paperIs not much better informed than hisnative confrere. It is to be hopedthat when, we have a contingent ofJapanese here and a Japanese Con-

sulate established in Honolulu theseJapanese fables about Hawaii mayreceive some contradiction.

Emigration and Emigrants.

Translated lrom the FIJI Bhimpo."

The announcement that Mr. Irwin hadbean appointed a special commissionerby the Hawaiian Government, frith in-

structions to encourage emigration fromJapan to the Hawaiian Islands, seemed tothe distressed and embarrassed people ofour country like the coming rain in timecf draught, and since then hundreds hareapplied as candidates for selection. Theoperations of the human heart are indeedsurprising.

The depression of trade in Japan hasincreased month by month and year byyear, showing no signs of abatement. Itaeoms to have come to a climax duringthe autumn ot the present year, for thedistress among the agricultural class hasreached a point never before attained.Most of the farmers have become unableto pay their taxes, and, in consequence,deep and increasing hardship is being en-

tailed on them, 'hundreds of families, inone village alone, being compelled to selltheir property in order to liquidate theirdebts. Dishonest persons who have suf-

fered from the prevailing depression areinclined to attribute their losses to theactions of others, and on this pretexthave caused considerable commotion. Inseveral cases they broke into taverns, orgutted pawnbrokers' shops, caring littlewhat the result of their reckless enter-prises would be and hardly heeding theremonstrances of the local authorities.Many of the shizoku have found them-selves reduced to the lowest depth ofpoverty, and in more than one case self-destructi- on

has been resorted to as a relieffrom all worldly distress. Others, bear- -

K.OF4LA, Hawaii, Jan. 22, 18S5.

Dr. Kimball has been in town to ministerto Mr. E. A. Chapin, and we are glad toknow that he thinks there are no groundsfor apprehensions in the case.

A quail at Makapala has formed a greatfriendship for a hen, and at any time, dayor night, can be found with her, and hasbecome so domesticated that it is no morealarmed at the approach of man than ourdomestic fowl. It is a curious sight indeed,and prove? that, under certain circum-stances, the quail can be tamed.

The heaviest rain within the memory ofthe oldest inhabitant visited us on Tuesdaylast, being sufficient in quantity and qualityto satisfy the most exacting.

Our Chinese citizens are gettings readyfor a gay old time on their New Year, and,no doubt, large quantities of tea and gingerwill be circulated among their " Melicanman" friends.

The foreign Union Church is now withouta pastor. Mr. Houston having " folded histent," and started in search of new fields oflabor.

IIoxokaa, Hawaii, Jan. 23.

A strange and beautiful sight was wit-

nessed here on last Saturday evening, onthe arrival of the Iwalani, about 3 o'clockp.m. A waterspout rose perpendicularly outof the so a, and was lost in the clouds; itstnrted close to the Paauhau landing, andtravelled slowly up the coast towards Hilo,working inland, and in about a quarter ofan hour burst right over Kalopaa. Imme-diately afterwards a southerly storm burstover us, and a perfect deluge of rain, lastingall Saturday night, Sunday, and Monday,doing great damage to the roads, andeffectually putting a stop to work of allkiuds.

Hilo, Jan. 22.

By the papers, the time of the late earth-quake shock here is given at 6:20 a.m. Thisis a mistake. I took the time of the shock,and it was, by the Custom-hous- o clock,exactly 6:10. As the difference in timebetween Honolulu and this place is,eleven minutes fast, it follows that theshock was felt here at exactly the same timeas in Honolulu.

Letters have been received from Mr. Alex.Young of the Honolulu Iron Works, who hasbeen superintending a trial at Waiakea of the

maceration" process of extracting sugarfrom crushed cane. It has turned out thatthe experiment was a grand success. Theamount of sugar saved per day on 30 clari-fie- rs

The Band Concert at Emma Square onSaturday last was well attended, and themusic finely rendered. Many who thorough-ly enjoy the concerts will echo the remarkmade by a young lady, as she strolled aboutthe square with her - father (?) "What wouldwe do without the band?" But it is to bedoubted whether the echo of his reply willbe quite so strong, for he answered, "Organ-ize a corps of native guitar players."

We are pleased to state that Mr. JohnRussell is convalescing. His condition during the past week was somewhat exagger-ated, but nevertheless he has passep througha severe trial. His recoyery is in a greatmeasure due to the unremitting attention ofhis attendant physician, Dr. Martin, andalso t the extremely quiet locality in whichhe is placed, the residence of Mr. Herbert,at Waikiki. Yesterday many of Mr. Rus-

sell's friends rallied round him and ex-

pressed their hopes of his speedy recovery.

The Chinamen's Moon Feast.New York Herald.

There was a fitful wailing of agonizedcatgut in Mott street the other night, whenthe moon feast of the Chinese began.Gum Wop, the champion eater of mooncakes, had starved all day that he mightgorge himself &t night. But in order toeat a moon cake it was first necessary tolook upon and salute the moon. Sir. Wopput on his shiniest hat and his softest gownand stood in the middle of the streetwatching the sky earnestly. Nothingcould be seen but clouds. Sir. Woplooked distressed and hungry. lie got aspy-glas- s and tried to get even a faint

of the moon, but without success,?;limpse moistened and his chin wobbledwith emotion. For a few minutes hewalked up and down the street, and thenhe stuck his hat over his left eye, uttereda long word, shut his fist and went intothe house to eat moon cakes rules or norules.

As Mr. Wop did so all the other China- -

men did, ana tne waning souna wmcnmade the neighbors look out at their backfences was the musical prelude to thefeast. Every Mongolian received hisfriends with open arms. Roast ducks,boiled pigs, rice, wine-o- f

chicken, dried fish, candies, and jellieswere spread out in abundance. 1 hen camethe moon cakes, lhey were stout, rounalittle things, resembling very much theregulation, mutton-pie- . The pastry wasstamped With Chinese characters in redink and has reliefs. The interior was filledwith armatic nuts, pork, almonds, quincejelly, walnuts, suet, and spices. Whilethe revelry was at its heighta reporterwalked down Mott street and entered aerloomv old onium shop, in the back ro'omof which sat a dozen or more Chinamenaround a table heaped with moon cakes. ;

The reporter was compelled to listen to ;

shivering chords of Chinese music whilehe nibbled suspiciougly at the edge of a,moon cake. Candy, which looked verymuch like fire-cracker- s, was handed .

around, and then cigars were distributed.Next came gin "all around, " and the vis-

itor retired.At the rooms of the Loon Ye Toon the :

members of that society sat at the foot of '

their shrine until they were full of mooncakes and piety. Then they smokedopium to the honor of Buddha and de-

parted. Some of them drank gin and de-clared that they saw the moon. The factithat the moon did not show itself waalooked upon a3 a sign of ill luck.

The Cingalese In Ilangles.Good Words. i

All the people in Ceylon, from babiesjust "feeling their feet "to old men andwomen, their steps tottering on the brinkof the grave, wear gold and silver orna-ments. They even invent new places forcarrying them, and it is no uncommonthing to see a Cingalese belle with the topof her ears covered with gold plate orwire, a large pair of rings pendent fromthe lobes of the ear, a gold or silver circletround her hair, her nose adorned withrings, and silver plates on her toes. Thisis the perfection of adornment; but In oneor other of the fashions, or in several ofthem, the Cingalese woman, of whateverstation in life, Is set forth. I saw runningout of a house a sturdy little boy 2 yearsof age, who had nothing on but a silverkey fastened round his waist by a girdle ofsilver wire. The men take their pleasureless expensively. They delight in goldearrings and rings, but beyond thi3 they,are content to intrust the recommendationof their personal a'fctparancc to a fine torto-

ise-shell comb, of circular shape, set onthe crown of their heads with the endstoward-'th- e forehead.

. Changing che Oyster's Flavor.Washington Star.

An oyster expert thus discourses: "Youcan change the flavor of an oyster just asyou can a pot of soup. You know that insoups the stock or consomme is only made,and from that nearly all the other kindsare obtained by the addition of the chickenor vegetables, or whatever is used. Takean oyster and change it from salt water tfresh, or partly fresh, and it makes a dif-

ference in its flavor. The northern oystercultivators are studying this feature of thebusiness, with a consequent improvementin the flavor and quality of the oysters.When the oysterman brings oysters infrom the deep water and throws them overinto fresh water, it is what they call 'giv-ing them a djmkj

M. W. McCliesney & Son,

Arkansaw Traveler,The other night, during a meeting of

the organization known as "The Club ofBtrane Recital, " Judge Montpafer, whosetime to relate a reminiscence had come,cleared his throat with that vigor whichBeems to be one of the special privileges ofa judge, though quite a change of venuefrom carefully considered politeness, andbegan as follows:

I have listened with rapture to Ole Bulland have breathed enchantment under theSvine spell of Wilhelm j, but it was a rudebackwoodsman who melted my heart withmusic and poured it warm upon my glow-ing souL Several years ago, during a va-

cation from my wearisome duties, I visitedan old friend who years before had settledamong the Ozark mountains. Luke "Wi-lliamson, my friend, was delighted to seeme, and when I looked upon his quainthome there among the gray mountains,and heard the laughter of his children,and saw the health-bloo- m on his wife'scheeks, I relented of my fotmer harsh de-

cision and declared that his retirementfrom a life whose activity could bringmuch anxiety and but little pleasure was ajust move.

One evening, shortly after my arrival,Williamson said: "I have a great treat inatore for you. : Not a great distance fromhere, in a cavity under a great rock, therelives the most remarkable man I have everseen. He was born and brought up amongthese hills, and has never seen a town, yetI think that he is the greatest violinist inthe world."

41 No doubt of it, M I replied. "I supposehe can play the traditional 'Nigger on the

With great skill. " ,

"I am not jesting, judge. n

"You surely cannot be in earnest?""Ye3, 1 am. I think that he is the

greatest , violinist that ever lived. Veryfew people have heard him. Once, whilpassing his old habitation, I heard him andwas thrilled. I entered, and ho ceasedplaying. I begged him to continue, buthe refused. After that, I spent a year ingaining his confidence. Now, nothing

leases him more than to play for me. IEave sent for him. lie will be hrepresently-- " ...

"While my friend was still speaking- - onthe subject which so much interestedhim, the;, furious barking of the dogwithout informed us of an arrival. Mr.Williamson went out and soon returned,escorting a tall, lean, ungainly man,Whom he introduced as Mr. Darby Mon-roe. I was pleased to see that the visitorhad brought hi3 violin, which he did notrelinquish, for, with an uncomfortableair, he sat, holding the instrument on hislap. I could not see a ray of intelligencein his face. His large brown eyes weredull and heavy, and his voice, when hemade some laconic reply to a question, didnot bespeak a soul where music dwelled.

"The greatest piece which Darby plays,I have called 'Emotion,'" said my friend."Darby, give us 'Emotion,' please. "

Without replying or looking up, heraised the violin to his shoulder and be-

gan- In a moment, his dull eyes wereorbs of living light, and hi3 face, so bar-ren of expression before, looked like therich painting of a grand old master. Themusic had upon me such a peculiar effect,that I began to smile. 1 felt ashamed,but looking at Williamson and his wife Isaw that they were smiling. Anotherstrain, and we burst into laughter. Inever laughed so in my life. I roared; Ifell on the floor ana rolled. Anotherstrain, I arose and resumed my seat.Tears began to trickle down my face andI began to sob. Williamson came overto ma. leaned on my shoulder and weptbitterly. Mrs. Williamson sobbed asthough her heart would break, and fromthe adjoining room, where the childrenhad been playing, came the piteous wailaof grief. Another strain. Again weWere laughing. Williamson seized his hatand struck me with it and I punched himIn the ribs and whooped. A crock jarwaa knocked from the table, and uncon-scious of any treachery on the part of theearthenware, Williamson trod upon it andwas thrown down;! while 1, : catching myfoot In the jar as it was rolling past me,stumbled and fell headlong on the floor.The violin ceased, and gathering ourselvesfrom ludicrous positions ana assumingpostures of civilization, we looked at eachether in astonishment I knew not whatto say. Williamson had told me thetruth. When at last we had become calmagain, i turned to Darby and said:

"You are more than a great genius.You control man's emotions.like a plowfcaan controls his Horsp. Whence cornedthB wonderful power? "

The light was dying rom his eyes; hitface was losing its expression":

"It's my soul, " he' replied. "It will goout that way.' . .

H9 arose, bowed an awkward goodnight, and was gone. I could not sleepthat night for thinking of that wonderful

.performance, and thjT next day I foundpjyself attempting to hum one 01 Darby!tinpyrean strainsT

"We must send for him again, " I sajdto Williamson. "My being thirsts; heilone can. bring relief. ?

The superstitious man whotlnks that he is confronted by a ghostCould not, with more terror, have felt thesensations of fright I glanced toward myfriends. Williamson sat with his handsraised, as though to ward off some greatGanger; and his wife, with ghastly face,sat trembling, and trying, it seemed, toihrink back into a corner. I attemptedto arise, but could not TerrorLike waves of cold water rolled across mylouL I tried to cry out, but my voice haddeserted 1 me. 5 Suddenly, a piece of icteamed t6 be lifted from me.

The musician did not reply. He actwith his violin across his lap.
