It is 40 miles loop aad has an area of 7X1 men miles its population ia 85,000. Tha surface Is hilly and picturesque, soil very fertile and the climate is bot and variable. The principal prod acts are grain, wine, oil mod mostly olives, hall of tha island being devoted to thdr culture. . Corfu, the city and capital of the island ia grandly situated on a height andla the loveliest bay I ever saw. It ia very strangely fortified. There ate two great citadels one at each cod of the city commanding both entrances to the little bar* It b the lnmmer residence of the King sod Court of Greece nod bn winter resort for inva lids. Thucydides tbs Greek his torian states that in this hay of Corfu, was fought the first sea battle in ths world, between Cocyera and Corinth in the year 665 B. C. ' Cocyera is the ancient nuns for Corfu, meaning the two high hilb upon which the citadels an built. The principal buildings to be seen are the arsenal, chnrcbcs, military hospital, asylum, bus tsn, and library. The customs sad habits of the people are much similar to those of Athens, although they are more industrious. I noticed sev eral machine shops, black-smith shops, and other places of bnsi A ship mate and 1 wandered out into the country, and be sides viewing their snug little forms and thriving crops ere also visited what we called an old tile mill. However it was a place where there were three or four wen a o d boys and about a dozen real pretty nttlc maids employed in making mud shingles or tiling lor roofs: The process consbted of mixing a lot of blue dirt into a thick dongb shaping it with an iron frame and then sliding it into a semi-oval wooden mould thence it was to bake in the burning sun. We stood sronnd watch ing this work for quite a while, perhaps not so much interested in the work as in the fair labor ers. One will notice in Corfu many different kinds of people. The grim Turk wearing red frx, the Arab with bb baggy clothes •nd blankets wrapped about his head for a hat, Dutch, Spanish, and Preach also many Italians. The Main street is quite wide.1 bat the rest are little narrow al leys and our wagons could not get through them. The build ings are all very old, conformiog well with the time tney keep, for it is of the ancient calendar. We left Athena Jnly 6th and arrived in Corfu on the 8th. On the 9th of Jnly we left Greek scenes behind and sailed out for the more attractive country of Austria and the city of Trieste. Jas. A. Hicks. .
