TJU JFTJT ISLANDS.
The Epidemic that Bages Among
the People 20,000 Deaths.
The sail story has bean told of the
deaths by measles introduced by the
English into the Fiji islands. A corre
spondent gives the following sad picture
of the islands during the prevalence of
the disease. He Bays: All at once and
in every direction the people are stricken
down .with a fell disease, which np to
this time they had never been in the
slightest degree acquainted with. Now,
strange to say, the chiefs 'are first at
tacked, and one by one they silently suc
cumb. From that day to this Oavalan
has been a vast charnel-house, the peo
ple dying daily in every direction. As
the sickness extended every effort was
rnaJo that ingenuity could devise or skill
prescribe to arrest its progress, but in
vain. Th public buildings at Nasova
were converted, into an hospital, and
quickly filled with tho sick and dying.
At Lovuka the old Wesleyan chapel was
also handed over for this purpose; and
at Totaga tho police dffices, lockup and
buildiugs were each speedily crowded by
tho dying people, . The administrator,
the colonial secretary, and the govern
ment medical officers, vied with one an
other in indefatigable efforts to mitigate
suffering, but in most instances, let me
add, without . success. The natives be
camo somehow imbued with the terrible
idea that now the English people had
become iossessed of their land, they de
sired to get rid of them. In .many, in
stances it wits impossible to dispel the
idea that the -king had. been taken to
Sydney for tho purpose of communicat
ing to hira a fatal poison, with which
utterly to destroy all his people. Sick
men and women would look you fairly in
tho face as though convinced of their in
exorablo fatoand.say: 'I am going to
die," and at qnce settle, down to inevita
ble death. To tell a Fijiman he looked
sick was as cortain destruction to him, in
many instancM' as a bullet through Ms
heart would bb.M -J ;
Thero are - reported some examples
remarkable for 1 the superstitious dread
and confident belief in destiny these
curious people exhibit. Once instance
I will give which 'occurred under my
own observation. . Six healthy Fijians
visited a plantation on Otti-Levu, and
accostod a Tonga , man (Friendly island
er) at work there, aud in reply were told
that all the fijians at that plantation
were sick and 'going to die, and that
they (the six) looked sick. A glance of
horror in return greeted this remark;
they retired to a native house in the
neighborhood. Two died on the follow
ing day, two tho day after, and on the !
evening of thcLthird day not one of the
six was alive. ,But beyond this fatal
panic which immediately seizes the disease-stricken
Fijiman, it was impossible
to treat him from his dogged resistance
to medical treatment. The moment
measlos approach, the patient should at
once retire tq' his place of habitation

cold and rairiaan4 more than all eschew
tho bath. But these precautions the
Fiji native generally will not take, and
bus but in fowrcasos taken. He at once
seeks the cold air and jumps into the
nearest river, as a relief to the fever
which oppresses him. , This "drives the
diseaso in," andj? certain death.
Among those who have fallen, sad to
relate, are thojqjpal chiefs, a majority
of those who feigned the deed of cession.
If you refer to that instrument you will
find the ffrstaindhg the names of the
high chiefs, signing it after those of the
' king's family to be that of " Savenaca "
and no words bf ralno could describe the
noble presence and courtly bearing of
this magnificent old Fijian. The brother
of tho Icing, nearest him in his councils,
tho true friend of the whites, the most
clear headed, in my opinion, having a
much higher intellect than Cakohau, he
died universally' regrettod. His last
moments wero remarkable for the
equanimity with which he met his death.
He had been t removed to the private
resideuco of Afr. Thurston, who zealous
ly attended him, "and he died without a
murmur t a iirigh.'- His remains were
carried to thqrave by white men, and
the natives have constructed over him a
pyramid shaped .monument of gigantic
proportions. Since that time no less
than five of the chiefs who signed the
deed of cessiofihavftdiod, as well as a
great number U others. Of the popula
tion of this islaiuWOavalau, one of the
smallest of the group over six hundred
have been burie4, and funerals each day
still continue. KoT has the white popu
lation e8caped,::-Amoug-the children the
mortality has been considerable,- and
general gloom prevails.
Neither has the mortality been con

all the larger and smaller islands of the
group with frightful rauiditv. Tn:

annihilated whole tribes. The Wintlw.i

LADY JANE FRANKLIN
Tlie Story of a Loving Wife and Iter
, Sacrifices.
Lady Jane Franklin, widow of the
late Sir John Franklin, died in London.
This noble woman, who had many per
sonal friends in America, was a daughter
of John Griffin, of London, and was
born about 1805. : In 1826 she became
the second wife of Sir John Franklin,
who had fought with distinction tinder
Nelson, and had Jed successfully two
Arctic expeditions. Eight years later
she accompanied her husband to Yan
Diemen's Land, and aided in securing
him the popularity he enjoyed during
the six years he was governor of that
colony. One of her acts of practical
philantrophy while there was to pay out
of her private purse a bounty of $2.50
each for the destruction of a dangerous
species of serpent, which in consequence
was soon exterminated. Returning to
England, Sir John Franklin accepted
the command of the ships Erebus and
Terror, with which he was to discover
a northwest passage. Ho sailed - in May
1845, on this ill-fated expedition, and
saw his native land no more. When he
did not return in 1847, as was intended,
Lady Franklin felt great anxiety for his
fate, and began that series of heroic
efforts which have secured her imperish
able fame. In the spring of 1848 she
offered rewards of $10,000 and $15,000
to any persons discovering or affording
relief to the missing party or making
any great effort to do so.
In 1849 she addressed a pathetic ap
peal to the American people, through
the President, for active co-operation in
the , search, which was nobly responded
to by the late Henry QrinnelL In 1850,
and in subsequent years, Lady Franklin
fitted out expeditions, chiefly at her own
cost, supplementary to those sent by the
government, xinaiiy sue sent out in
1857 the steamer Fox, under command
of Capt. jMcClintockv ' who J. .returned
about three years later with the melan
choly news of Sir John Franklin's death.
but with abundant proof that the daring
explorer had accomplished the discovery
he was sent to make, namely, the exist
ence of a northwest passage. The tid
ings of the commander's jdeath McCliri
tock had learned from a document left
in a cairn on the shores of King Wil
liam's Land by the survivors of Frank
lin company. The paper, dated April
25T 1848, stated that Sir John Franklin
died June 11, 1847 ; that the Erebus'and
Terror were abandoned April 22, 1848,
when the survivors, one hundred and
five in number, started for the Great
Fish river. Many relics were found of
this party, who perished on their jour
ney soon after they left the vessels."
Although there was no further reason
to doubt the fate of her husband, Lady
Franklin was henceforth unceasing in
her efforts to learn more of him and his
brave companions. She held out liberal
rewards to any one who would bring her
further tidings, and took a warm interest
in every scheme for exploring the polar
regions. She offered to pay liberally
the late Capt. Hall, of Cincinnati, if he
would go over to London and tell her
the story of his five years' voyage to the
Arctic zone. Finding that Hall was too
intent on going to the North Pole, and
so. could not spare time, Lady Franklin
set out for thi3 country, and arrived in
Cincinnati, by way of Panama and San
Francisco, in July, 1870, In this jour
ney she was accompanied by her niece,
Miss Cracroft. Lady Franklin, Kad a
long conversation with Capt. Hall, and
learned his. views-regarding the : fate of
the missing records of her husband's
voyage, and the prospect' of finding a
last message, which she firmly believed
he had written.
During her visit J&e venerable lady was
treated with great respect, and was wait
ed upon by the city officials and many
prouuueui ; citizens. . An 1872 .Lady
Franklin bought the Franklin Housed in
Lincolnshireintending to collect there
the relics of her husband's expeditions.
in the same spirit of romantic devotion.
she offered rewards for further tidings of
ner lost Husband and his men at the re-'
cent sailing of a British expedition to
explore the Arctic regions4, and, if possi
ble, to reach the North pole. Her last
message to the American people was a
request made about a fortnight ago, by

Jlotv Are Diamonds Formed
The geological CKJcurrence of tW v?ial
monds of South : Africa Jias been often
described, but some new twrints of inter
est are brought out in a recent
read before a society bf London by Pro-
lessor MasJielyne and Dr. Flight. They
have found the rock at Du Toit's and
other similar diggings to have a snffc.
decomposed character: consisting of a
soapy steatitelike magma, with a hv-
oraiea oronzite, crystals of new vermicu
lite mineral, called yaalite, opaline silica,
and other non-essential constituents.
This rock has been extensively mAf.
morphosed and fractured, and in . many
places broken7thirragh-;by-dikes tf an
igneous diorite. ,It js asserted that Htbe
diamonds oocux more plentifully, if not
exclusively," inthe neighborhood of
these dikes, or near them in the : strata
of the hydrous rock through whieh Uia
igneous material has been ejected. In
confirmation of this view the writers
urge the distinctive character of the
diamonds in different localities, and
their sharp, unabraded character., How
the diamonds have been formed can
hardly be explained, though it is a point
01 cousiaeraDte interest if it may be ac
cepted that the metamorphosed bron
zite rock, possibly at Dlaces of it

original home of the diamonds. -

Lost A Fashionable Woman's
-1 Baby.
A New York correspondent of a West
ern paper tells this story : . One year
ago to a fashionable mother was born a
baby boy. She got a wet nurse who re
mained with her six months, and then,
as the child liked the bottle best, was
discharged. When the baby was born
the grandmother was there from her dis
tant Western home, and sliortly after re
turned, to come no more till this sum
mer. In the meantime the young
mother has seen her child sometimes
once a day, sometimes once a week, as
the case might be. The first thing on
grandma's arrival was a loud call for
Tommy, and Tommy was forthcoming.
He was kissed and hugged and praised
and petted, and grandma just lugged
him about till finally, old lady like, she
stripped him to see how much he had
grown. Then came a shriek. "Where
was Tommy's extra toe?" Tommy was
born with six toes; grandma knew it.
The family doctor was sent for, and when
an examination of Tommy was made,
the M, D. unhesitatingly pronounced it
not , the simonpure Tommy by any
means. There had been a malformation
of tho original Tom's feet that time
would not have remedied. Then all sorts
of speculations were in order. But one
servant had anything to do with tho
baby, and she had been six months away,
no one knows in what direction.
Thomas sits up in a dubious position.
If he ain't Tommy, who is he ?
Tlie Sandal Wood.
The sandal wood out of which so many
fans are made, and which is so much
used on account of its strong scent,
comes from a tree that attains maturity
tou about twenty-five years. The older
the tree, the nearer the heart-wood comes
fo jthe surface, while the bark becomes
deeply wrnkled, is red underneath, and
frequently bursts, disclosing in old speci
mens the absence of all sapwood. Such
trees, whatever their size may be, should
at once bei felled, as they rapidly deteri
orate. The heart-wood is hard and
heavy. , The best parts are used for
carving boxes, album covers, desks, and
other u8oful and ornamental articles.
The roots, which' are the richest in oil,
and the chips go to the still, while Hin
doos who can afford it show their wealth
and their Respect for their departed rela

An, Insane Murderer.
Wm. W. Brown, the Philadelphia
wife-murderer, was arrested under pecu
liar circumstances. Remorse was too
strong for him. He could not abandon
the place where he had lived so happily,
and where he had murdered a wife whom
he loved, after his low fashion. Snlifl
returned, after the first mad flight, to
the neighborhood of his old home, and
was taken pj the police. In his pocket
was found .memoranda of insane ravings,
describing: the tortures he had suffered.
He wrote that his heart was broken; that
he Killed his wife in a moment of passion,
induced by jealousy; and that he intend
ed to commit suicide, and meet his Bes

to escape conviction for any crime, how

sad to relate, is full of weakness, and is
easily ; influenced by sentimentalism.

Honster Bee Hive.
A corrcsDondent of Hia Cnm
t a, , -vw, vmn
'Herald gives the following description
oi a monster bee lave on the eastern
slope of j the San Fernando range, Los
Angelos county, CaL It is a large story
and has been extensively copied by the
press : The hive is located on a rift
which penetrates the rock to the depth
of probably one hundred and sixty feet.
The orifice is thirty feet long and seven
teen feet wide, four passages. - This rift
was discovered to be the abiding place
of a swarm of bees that is represented as
coming out in nearly solid column one
foot in diameter. Certain parties have
endeavored to descend to the store of
honey collected by these bees: bnt vera
invariably driven-bade, and one m
lost nis nie m tie effort. Others have, at
the expense of much labor and monev.
built a scaffold one hundred and twenty
five feet high, in the hope of reaching a
place whence they could run a drift into
the rock and extract iU well-bored
sweets; but finally ceased their wrrlr
Within four years the bees Lave sAAeA
not less than fiftoen feet to their treas
ure; as ascertained by actual
ment, and it is thoujrht that at th
present time-tlie re can be no less
eignt or ten tons of honey in the rock.
