To the Fisherman & Farmer. There are two volcanoes on this island, Kilanea and Manna Loa. the latter being the largest, has the larg est active crater in the world. On the 11th of August, 18:f. a great volcanic eruption commenced on Manna Loa. and for fifteen months tins greai furnace continued to disgorge its floods of molton minerals with an energy not a little startling. If we take into account the amount oi in condescent matter disch length, breadth and depth of the stream, and the time of its contin uance. this eruption has no parallei in the history of volcanic phenomon:. with which we are acquainted, lhe lava stream was estimated at seventy miles in length, with a probable aver age breadth of two miles and a depth varying from ten to three hundred fcefc; the angle of descent down tne side of the mountain proper is about 6. In some places, however, it is '20, 30 and 50 degrees, and in many places the burning Hood plunged over per pendicular precipices in awful splen dor. The velocity down the steeper parts of the mountain waa some 40 miles an hour. From the base of the mountain to the shore the country is an inclined plane, on an angle of two or three degrees, with a surface broken and irregular and forming a valley or water shed, down which the rivers, which water the town and bay of Hilo all rush. Down this valley such property as could be removed. On the loth of February. 18.b, six months from the commencement of the flow and when the lowest point of the stream was within ix miles of the sea, and when to all human ap pearance, the action from the summit crater to the terminus ortueniw was unabated, suddenly and unexpectedly the fiery river ceased to flow longi tudinally and from that day it has made no advance towards the coist. Thi a w.iq mar velous, because the great feeder or summit crater was in full blast, and because the unmeas ured floods of igneous minerals were poured down the mountain for nine months after the above date, lio-htning ut the forests with a luril glare and furnishing a scene of grand and sublime interest by dav and nioht. Thus lor three fourths of a year the rocks wtvre pending, the hills melting, and the mountains flowing down before the people, flashing in their faces, rolling, leaping, tos ung and thre:itning to sweep over them, while an unseen hand held b;ck the nnrnincr torrent. A wall of lava can now be seen around the town; in some places it is several feet high. Let us now visit Kawaloi, which i located on the bay of Kealakeakiu; on the western side ol' the island of Hawaii. Tha bay is about (J )0 fath oms broad an " 1,203 fathoms in length. This town was long celebra ted as the residence of the e.ir.y Kings of Hawaii. It was m its neighborhood also that there existed the" famous city of refuge which ..ffVinlpd n.ii mvaUnble sanctiury to tl U U l V w - the "uiltv fugitive who was so favored as to gain its precincts.

The village is located on the sea shore and comprises perhaps two hundred houses. In the farming districts, two to four miles from the village quite a large number oi foreigners live : engaged in raising coffee, oranges, sugar cane, &c.
