Mr. Bvdnpv H Little. British Con
sul Qeneral oi Cuba, has just made to
his Governuieot a valuable report on
the condition of that island. Tbe
total income of the colony for the
year 1888 is fixed at $80,000,000. Out of
this had to be paid eovernment taxes
amounting to $25,uw,uw, iocai Loca
tion of $8 000,000. interest on colonial
debt of nonnno besides meeting a
deflclenca in o vera mental expendi
ture of $3 000,000. over 50 per cent, of
the entire income being tbus disposed
of. Banking, as understood in Great
Britain or in the United States, does
not exist in flnha. as tnere is not a
single l uban bank in which money
can be laced at interest, nor a savi
ings bunk in wbicb the earnings of
the working population can De ae
posited. The island has no gold nor
silver currenoy of its own. The chief
financial rjroblein is to supply the
place of the notes of the Spanish
Bank, representine nominally a cir
ca lation of 40 000.000 issued to meet
the calls incidental to the civil war.
These have suffered rapid deprecia
tion and are not accepted in any ini"
portant commercial transaction.
The area of Cuba, 43,000 square
miles, is, with the exception of a little
more tban 4,000 square miles, unculti
vated, but it is well known now that
it has abundant resources in mineral
wealth only awaiting development.
whilst there is much unreclaimed
lands free from forest growths which
could readily be put under cultiva
tion. During the year 1888 nearly
$5,000,000 of British capital was in
vested in the cigar and cigarette
arrade, and from this introduction of
capital from abroad good results are
ookd for. it is nopea mat foreign
aid may check tbe downward pro-
gress of the colony and decrease in
population wbicb, at tbe close of last
year, was onlv about a million ana a
balf, of whom six hundred thousand
were negroes and mulattoes. Sugar
is the chief export of Cuba, tbe total
production for 1888 being calculated
to have reached 814,510 tons. The to
bacco crop was valued at $33,600,000,
and the exports of cigars from Ha
vana was considerably in excess of
the preceding year. It is pointed
out in tbe report that in the absence
of manufacturers the imports
of Cuba are numerous aud offer a fair
field for British enterprise: and that
if the United States have, commer
cially speaking, aunexed the island,
it is rather in the matter of its ex
ports than imports. The published
returns show that a large proportion
of tbe articles for daily food and use
are imported from Europe, ibe ac
tivity of American speculators in ar
ranging tor large shipments of Ala
bama coal to the West Indian Islands
is regarded as a serious menace to the
interests of Great Britain in that par
ticular branch upon which it has al
ready baa au effect. Ibis is not
gratifying news to British exporters,
but it i an encouraging sign of tbe
power of the United States to com
pete successfully with other countries
when not artificially hampered. Ibe
re port, in conclusion, points out tbat
investors and traders need tear no
risks from chances ot disturbance of
tbe peace of tbe island. The Ad
ministration just now ia popular aud
vigorous, aud the last traces or tne
revolution iu tne torm of murder
clubs have been thoroughly crushed
out.

Aa India Nime and aa bat It .Tlta:il
from tht Hoist StiUtman.
An inquirer after knowledge in
American Notes and Queries for Septem
ber 21 asks the old conundrum:
What is the meaning of the word
'Idaho?'" aud receives tbe answer
bicb has grown musty with age
"Joaquin Miller, who gave the incip
ient State of Idaho its name, says it
is written ana speiiea improperly.
Tbe correct form is ldahho, with the
accent ou the middle syllable. The
name means "the light on the moun
tains.
There is not nor never was a shad
ow of foundation for the statement.
The word Idaho was perfectly famil
iar to tbousands ot wbite miners,
traders and travelers of every class
long before Miller ever saw tbe coun
try. The writer of this paragraph
was on the ground while a steamboat
was being built by the Oregon steam
navigation company at a point above
tbe cascades of tbe Columbia river in
the spring of 1860. He saw tbe
steamer launched and christened
Idaho, and watched tbe workman
while he painted this name in an
appropriate place on the vessel.
1 be name is universally admired,
and to tbe inquiry that was daily
made as to its .origin and meaning
tbe answer always was that it was a
word that had been taken from some
one of the Indian dialects at that time
spoken by some of the tribes of In
dians inhabiting tbat section of
tbe Columbia river country, and that
the meaning of the word, as given by
tbe Indians and rendered into Eng
lish by the interpreters of that day,
was "gem of the mountains." The
word wis spoken and written by
everybody having occasion to men
tion auytbing connected with the
steamer just as it is spoken and writ
ten to-day. The account given by
Miller of his talk with Col. Craig and
of their joint observations in the Nez
Perce country during the autumn of
lool is doubtless a pure mytb tbe
afterwork of tbe poet s brain.
When in March, 1863, the question
of the creation and organization of a
new territory was before Congress
the matter of finding a name for it
was discussed, when the delegate in
Congress from Washington Territory,
Selucius Garfield, suggested tbe name
ot tbe old steamer as tbe most beau-
ful, appropriate and suggestive for
the new territory. Miller had no
more agency ia finding a name for
the region in question than he bad in
naming the thirteen original col
onies.

No particle of sand which goes
down into the sea ever comes back.
Yet millions of particles leave the
surface of the earth every second and
are carried, suspended in the waters
of more than 20,000 rivers, out into
tbe ocean. There are more than 100
streams classed as rivers, in the State
of Louisiana alone Each one of these
has several hundred creeks, brooks
and spring branches tributary to i t.
bach brook or spring branch, witn its
countless rivulets, clasps the hillsides
and drags down the surfaces thereof
down into the brooks down into
the creeks down into the rivers
down to old ocean. And there the
atoms rest patiently; each atom wait
ing for others now resting in the
green fields, but soon to join the com
rade gone before.
To-day an atom forms part of a
farm in Iowa or Missouri, to-morrow
it is on its way to the eulf. This pro
cess has been going on since the be
ginning of time since "the earth was
without form and void;" the primeval
rocks have been disintegrated and
spread abroad in fertile field, to be
slowly sifted out and washed into the
ocean; perhaps again to be upheaved
and formed into islands and conti
nents abiding places for coming
generations. All life, animate an in
animate, is simply an illustration of
this grinding down process; of the
master rubbing down the bumps to
fill up the hollows.
The final outcome, after millions of
years, of this smoothing down process
on the surface of our globe, will make
the earth partake of the nature of a
huge billiard ball sailing in the sky
devoid of hills or valleys, mountains
or plains.
