Inasmuch as the Eucalyptus or Australian gum tree has been found to flourish in these Islands, notably at Makawao and Ulupalakua, on Maui some facts regarding the tree, forth in the recently published report of the California Pharma-ceutal Society, will be of interest to our readers. We give a brief synopsis of this part of the report, ffom the gaa Francisco Bulletin The fourth annual report of the California Pharmaceutical Society devotes much attention to the remedial powers of the Australian gum tree, Eucalyptus Globulus) the general introduction of which in tbis Sta'e hits lately been urged by medical and scientific gentlemen, in view of its medicinal virtues, ornamental appearance, and utility in the arts.

It belongs to the order of Myrtacue, the same that furnish the clove ami the pimento berry, also the Melaleuca Minroe, which yields cajeput oil, and grows often to gigantic size, it is impregnated in ail portions with a peculiar aromatic substance, most abundant in the leaves aud tlowers, which yield by distillation about four per cent, of fragrant volatile oil. It is believed that the oil will be an effective remedy against malarious diseases of all types, and that the presence of the trees, cultivated in gardens, will contribute to sanify the atmosphere from those emanations which give origin to epidemic diseases. "hat he whic.h inst not relish the Eucalyptus is evident from the geieral cleanness of tbe leaves and the fact that the byi'rocarbon oils are fatal to animal life. The balmy perhme, therefore, that exhales from them must influence in destroying the parasites which frequmt shrubs growing in their vicinity, tending to dirninhlf if not suppress them. The Society has great hties of the successful application of the medicinal products of the Eucalyptus, and that they will niatelj supersede drugs now in use.

Annexation No. 7. Let us exanine the capacity of these islands for a sugar produciig country. If space permitted, I could point out Mid name every valley and land in cultivated by the implements of modern ably cultivated in coffee and oUier productions, and the area is about as three to one as compared with sugar. On Nii hau, there is not a stream of water for irri- sons, who were prosperous and happy in the cultiva- tion of their yams, bananas, onions and other vegetables, and were skilled in making their beautiful mats.

A few foreigners supply their place, who own all the land there is no native population but their dependants, and the native eiple of hae l-een drien frvui their hoOies expatriated forever. i- ly aauexicg that ulauJ on a sniill scale to the 6 -land o' cakes." Such would be the result of a a- cexation on alt the islauds. Kauai there is a tract of arid plain between the mountains an the sea, with an average wklth of one and a half miles probably, extending frwo the Waimea River northward as far as tbe paii, where a mountain barrier blocks all cultivation to Ilanalei except a few narrow and almost inaccessible valleys A portion of this plain might be cultivated by ex- hauating all the waters of the YVairue Fuver at great 1 exjiense. The cliruate is as dry as that of Fgypt, an 1 the highest amount of land that could placed under cultivation under the mott favorable circuiu- sUuees, would not exceed seven souare tuihs or acres. From NVaiuie to Koloa the few narrow valleys might be converted iut small sugar patches, by the native population of their kalo linls their staff cf life.

To cultivate sugar on I these lands you wocM have to dispossess the native population. Two square miles are all that could be cultivated. In Koloa there is enough for one plan- i tation cf exhausted land, one square mile, iu the vicinity one square mile mora. From that point to Xawiliwili, there is but little land that could bo cul- tivated in sugnr cane, and very little of it shows i marks of former cultivation. There are about four square miles that could be cultivated in cane on the plain of Xawiliwili but this would leave uo room for the cultivation of the native taff of life kalo From Xawiliwili to Moloaa there are some four square miles adapted to cane cultivation, and from that point to Ilanalei about ns much more, and that is pretty much confined to Charles Titcorub's lands on Kilauea.

The valleys of Ilanalei, Wainiha and Lumahai, might augment this amount to four square miles more. To convert these land into tugar plantations, would be at the expense of the native pepu-; lation, in depriving them of their cultivatalle land. The whole amount of sugar cane laud in Kauai, will rather fall short than exceed twenty-five square miles. What amount does Oabu possess? The Nuuanu valley has one plantation, which limits its capacity, Southward cf Honolulu and extcuding around the southeast point of the island to Kaneohe, you could I not find an eligible site for a good plantation. Ka-j neohe and tbe other plantations in Koolaupoko.

and all the available land could bo included in four square miles. Koolauloa about tho same four I square miles of sugar land. By including Waialua, and sweeping around the northwest point of the isl-; and by Waiauae to Ewa Bay, we might probably find three square miles more. Tho high plain ex-j tending from Ewa to Waialua, owing to its aridity and the impossibility of irrigation, presents a limited capacity for agriculture. Probably two square miles might be cultivated, with uncertain prospects of a crop.

From Ewa to Honolulu, the plantations of McColgan, and Halawa of Mr. Williams, are of limited capacity, and one equare mile would include all the land cultivatable in cane. Oahu then has 1 only fourteen square miles of sugar cane land. I It would be difficult to find six square miles in Molokai, where sugar cane could be successfully cultivated. Lanai has but little, and that is confined to one valley with a precarious chance for wtiter.

Give it one square mile, and leave the remainder to sheep and goats for the benefit of 'uhou. Kahoo-lawo has not an acre adapted to the cultivation of any but grass, when it rains, which is rarely. Hurricanes of dust are far more abundant, As to Maui, although a large island, its sugar pro- ducing capacity is limited. Lahaina and Kaanapali have about three square miles which can bo culti vated, and a great portion of that amount is now in cane. Olowulu and Ukumehame probably possess one square mile of cane land.

The capacity of the Wnikapu and Wailuku lands is nearly limited to the land now under cultivation and will not exceed four equare miles. The vast inclined plain at the base of Haleakalu, extending from Makawao toward Wailuku, Waikapu, down to Maalaea Bay, is wholly worthless without irrigation, much of it is barren and cut by deep gullies, formed of short broken ridges, and toward Makena is nothing but aa and clinkers. Ten square miles would cover the whole area adapted to tbe cultivation of cane, and it is very doubtful if water could be procured to irrigate at any cost. The districts of Kula, liana and Hamakua, may have six square miles that could be cultivated in cane. The valley of Honoka-hau, and the small valleys contiguous, are too limited iu extent for sugar cultivation to any amount.

This would give twenty-four square miles to Maui an overestimate. There is more land on Hawaii adapted to the cultivation of cane than on all the other islauds. Let us begin at Hilo and travel rapidly over it. The district of Ililo being favored by abundant rains and fine irrigating streams, has a capacity of about thirty-five square miles for cane; Hamakua, twenty; North Kohala, seven South Kohala contains part of the land of Pukapu, Wai koloa and Pukalaui that might furnish four square miles of cane land North Kona, one South Kona has Mr. Hughes plantation, Kahaloa, and a part of Honaunau, which might be cultivated in cane, equal to two square miles Kau has about three, and Puna, three square miles.

This would give Hawaii seveuty-five square miles of cane, all of which under the mos'. favorable circumstances would not be cultivated. The aggregate amount of cane land on these islands amounts to about 145 square miles, or 02,800 acres. This amount cultivated to its full extent, calculating the product at two tons to the acre, would give 185,000 tons, or 271,200,000 pounds, more than Mauritius has ever produced. Now Mauritius has about 700 square miles of territory, and about half of this is sugar-producing land or CiO Hquxre miles.

But it would be next to an impossibility to put all our sugar land under cultivation, unlets we were favorel by capital at the basis of plantations as in Mauritius, and the extraordinary immigration by which that islaud was favored. And if we give up ail our best lands for sugar cane, what will become of the native population Will they become bonded slaves to cultivate their country for the benefit of I others, or will they be displaced by Hill coolies or Chinese? In either case it would be ruin to them. As well maintain tbe olicy of exterminating the native race as advocate annexation and the ci aversion of all the agricultural land of the islands into sugar plantations As to the Pearl River reciprocity amatter, it is entirely with the King and the people. It will be time enough to discuss the subject when it assumes a practical ehape. Until then, farewell to the subject and to Viri-dis." Independence.

Masters and Servants Law in England. In the Saturduy Review for February 8, under the head of "Manchester Anxieties," we find the following paragraph, by which it appears that in free England as well as in Hawaii nei, breach of a contract of service is punishable with imprison- I ment: I Mr. Crompton has repeated, in an article in the Fortni'jhtiu Uetif.w. under the title -Class Let'isla- the statements and arguments which he lately'. -rcn --insuDorainauon nas maue addressed to the Trade Unions' Congress at Leeds.
