These islands rank with TIIK MOST FRUITFUL and smiling regions’ 1 on the surface of th globe, th glv tial climate. These evls, however, are counteracted by the moisture and breer.es of the surrounding ocean and by the inte rior mountains, which rise in many in stances to a verv lofty height. • Several of the Polynesian peaks approach the elevation of those in the great conti nents. In the Sandwich islands Mouna Hon is about 16.000 feet., and Mouna Koah about 15,000 feet above the level of the Bea. In other groups some of the peaks rise #000 and 10,000 feet. All. or nearly nil. of these islands have mountains, except such of them ns were created bv the incessant labor of the eorul insect. These latter are visible to the navigator only by the trees which rise from their tint surface. The coral insect cannot, rise above that ele ment which is its home and from which It draws Hr food. The higher lainnds are indented by deep bays, and finely varie gated hv streams descending from the mountains: but. their limited extent docs not admit, the formation of lakes or rivers of any Importance. EUROPEAN INTERCOURSE during the present century has effected a remarkable change upon these islands. As the route from Britain to her Australian settlements by Cape Horn is nearly equi distant with that by the Cape of Good Hope, vessels frequently prefer it, and are thus led to touch for refreshments at the Society Islands. The Sandwich Islands are situated in the route to the whale fish ery in the 'northern Pacific and in that of the ftar trade from northwest America to China. Hence, their harbors are some times crowded with vessels and American merchants have settled in their ports. THE SOCIETY ISLANDS have excited a higher interest than any other group in the South Sea. Though not the largest,they are the most beautiful, the moat fruitful, and those in which civiliza tion and polished manners have made the greatest progress. Otaheite, or Tahiti, the hugest and finest of these islands, ranks always as the brightest gem of the Pacific. islj islands closely follow each other.

Girls do most of the work here. Four hundred and fifty hands are employed, and the pay roll is *2(1 JO per week. The sales are $100,000 a month. The cemetery is a beautiful spot with its immense pond of water-lilies, green slopes and handsome monuments. We wander there often, where sleeps one who was very dear lo us in the sweet long ugo. We have been to Massachusetts, and had a sad, yet pleasant visit. Pleasant to see dear faces we loved, and sad because the mother who would have welcomed us so warmly had but recently gone to the home on high.

The world little knows how many homes, though seemingly bright,are oold and chill because the mother has finished her work and gone to receive her reward. Thank God for these blessed mothers,the memory of whom will lead us upward until we too shall have crossed the river and with her shall dwell forever with the lord.

THE ONLY KIND OF f. \BOI! employed is the so-called Polynesian con tract labor. In Samoiithel'e la one German firm which has extensive plantations, and i they employ between eight and nine Leu drod lidim'ers. They keep three vessels I running between Samoa and the various ] groups whence the laborers are brought. One of these vessels returned with only ' 107 men after having been out some j months. The usual impression on first seeing the creatures which one of these. | labor ships brings is that they ean never I become good laborers. They belong to one of the lowest types of humanity, the greatest cannibals on earth. They arrive filthy, lazy and ferocious. They are com fortably housed, decently clothed and. well fed. At the cud of the three years for which they are generally engaged, they are as unfit to return to their savage homes as they were previously to have contact with civilized beings. MISSIONARIES AND PHILANTHROPISTS and others have denounced in unineasurcs terms the horrible outrages of the labor traffic,iudtacrimi’lately accusing all nation alities of the guilt. While it is doubtless true that many outrages have been com mitted, it is equally true that they have in many instances been greatly exaggerated. Il one looks at both sides of the question one cannot but think that, the “slavery” no much denounced by these persons must finally turn out to he a blessing.
