Watching- the Stream f Lava f rem the Great Hawaiian Volcano From Honolulu comes an account of the flow of the lava toward Hilo. Two days in June it advanced more than a mile, and since then has been moving forward more slowly, but the inhabi tants of Hilo are becoming alarmed at the threatened destruction of their homes. A correspondent writing from Hilo, under date of J uly 14, gives inter esting details of the great river of fire, which is now fully fifty miles long. The tendency of the flow is to spread out in many streams, thus retarding its forward advance. The writer gives a graphic picture of a night scene on the mountain. The nignc we were there we moved camp twice. The first time the lava came toward us at the rate of six feet per minute some of the time, and that although our camp was on rising ground. The ladies of the party felt anxious, so we moved across a small gulch, thinking it would pro tect us from the fiery stream. We had eaten our lunch beside the water in this gulch, some distance above this spot, but to our surprize the lava fol lowed along in our tracks, and it was a magnificent spectacle to see it pour ing over the upper side and entrance. There were three cascades of from six to ten feet high. Soon the wind fresh ened, and as the lava crept nearer the smoke from the burning trees grew so dense and suffocating that we couldn't endure it, so we moved one ot the tents and finally the other. It seemed omi nous the way the fire crept in after us, for all night the loud crash of falling trees drew nearer and nearer. We had moved down about half a mile, and it had followed us. The fire in the trees does not spread at all, as it is so moist from frequent rains. It burns no fur ther than the edge of the flow. Some of the streams are beginning to run boiling water. It is a mistake to sup pose that when lava enters and fills up a gulch it dries up a stream. Water continues running under lava. As a Droof of the heat, a little dog which followed its owner up to the flow the other day plunged into a pool and had all the hair taken off in a second. It died almost immediately.

It will manufacture chiefly the coarser cloths and rope. The Batesville Factory, in Greenville connty, S. C, which was only a few months ago destroyed by fire, will soon be ready to resume operations and will begin the manufacture of cotton yarns by the 1st of September.
