During our residence in tbe home of Lai uila we learned to respect and almost venerate the character of its dignified and remarkable mistress. Though accustomed to many habits of life that would appear eccentric to European eyes, she could not by any means be compared with a barbarian. The type of civilization to which her race had belonged was Asiatic rather and this women than Anglo-Saxo- n was no doubt one of the highest type of her people. In conversation after . she acquired enough of our language to talk freely with us, she was dexterous and keen. Her memory of the unhappy war which had led to the deveatation and depopulation of her native island was clear and explicit although she yet lacked the command of our language to always give succinct and connected history of the momentious events through which she had passed. At times she would converse for hours about the civil war and Bolubera whom she delighted to surname the Great. I dotted down the most Interesting of her discourses from time to time and eventually will incorporate them in the record of my stay here. But first let us describe a Beries of explorations which myself and my two companions indulged in while the guests of Laluila. And first of all let us give some idea ot the dwelling in which we lived. Though appearing to rise but two stories aboye tbe ground it was a mammoth structure, a veritable castle which would no doubt bear comparison with some of the many feudal castelated structures of medieaval Though , not resembling a Europe. fortress in its exterior apointments, it had nevertheless been built with an idea of defense. It was surrounded with a series of terraces, four in number; each of which rose some six feet On the tops above its predecessor. of these terricss were laws of grass and small flowers which could in no instance obstruct tbe view. The face of each terrace was exactly circular, showing beyond question that they were the work of human hands and not the result of chance. Upon the eminence in the centre of all the terraces the castle was erected. It was built entirely of rock. The walls were fully three feet thick. The doors and windows, too, for that matter, were closed by immense heavy blocks of roughly hewn wood so constructed as to fit into groves made in the casings and thus held together when in place. The door to the main entrance was hung on wooden rollers and consisted of a single great block of wood rudely carved with fanciful figures. The area of the building, which was .irregular in shape, was about half an acre. A narrow poarcli extended entirely around it. The roof of the poarch was a solid arch of stone supported on the outer edge by stone pillars at convenient intervals. It was a long time before we were permitted to explore the Interior of this But at length we were given access to its dark recesses. By the light of a tallow candle our hostess led us from hall to hall, from ehamber to chamber, from the cellar dungeons to turret garret. It took the better portion of a day to explore the entire edifice. As our guide led us through the stone paved halls into the vrrious appartments her tongue was busy with anecdotes which gays historical Interest to eyery room. Lead-u- s down from the main entrance we e entered first, what had been the chamber of the place where the At the kings of the isle resided. further extremity of the apartment was a dais raised some two or three feet above the floor. In the centre of the dais were two luxurious divans peculiar structure. Family Trade aIropr.Specialty. California, O, audi-anc- . Bottled Beer a Specialty, 1 WHOLESALE AND RETAIL.

Huge heavy mats covered the floor of the auditorium. From the ceiling silver candelabra hung down. On the walls were thirty-si- x portraits of the kings of Euliila including the last who perished in the war with Bolubera. Before the dais was a table about six feet long with holes bored through the top at both ends and with stains of blood all over it. Our guide informed us that this table was not a part of the ordinary furniture of the hall but it was brought there upon rare occasions only when a traitor was to be put to the torture before decapitation. With abated breath and solemn mien she declared that Bolubera had once been taken prisoner and brought before the royal presence bound for torture upon that bloody table but just as the red hot irons were about to be applied to the soles 1 OO-OFZBZRA-TIV- 1 1 e, 1 Merchandise.

I didnt Bee any light over iJsrsiTTTJiioisr. General Mrs. Bowser, it is possible that this house may take fire some time, observed Mr. Bowser as he laid aside his paper the other evening. Ycs.

I shall peril mv life to subdue the conflagration, and if I find it cannot bo done I shall save all the valuables. Perhaps I could help you. And perhaps you couldnt.
