WBDNBSDAY MOBNINO. NO V. 16. 1870
The French envoy has published his at*
count of the causes for the failure of an
armistice, and Bismarck has followed with
hii. Each endeavors to throw the respon
sibility of failure upon the other, and thus
both tacitly acknowledge the weight and
justice of the universal sentiment outsidt
of the belligerent countries in favor of a
termination of hostilities. The war is.bar
barous, destructive, ruinous to both par
ties, even to the victor, aud its end tvoual
be hailed with general joy.
The report now circulating that Prus
sia intends no longer to observe the Treat\
of Paris, concluded March SO, 18.10, will,
if founded on fact, create a larger turmoil
than ever in Europe. It has been conjec
tured that she intended to take the oppor
tunity afforded by the war to shake off tin
fetters imposed upon her by that treaty,
and enlarge her power upon the Black
Sea, but she has kept her designs to her
self, till the favorable moment arrived.
In the present condition of Europe, suc
cessful resistance to her plans seems an
impossibility.
The Boston Journal in noticing the sma'i
increase of population in Maine during the
Inst decade, says this “is a good State to
go from.” If a comparison of the people
of the several States were made as to
health, physical and mental strengih, and
all the conditions which make life com
fortable and happy, it would reveal the fact
also that Maine is a good State to live in.
The war and the enticements of the west
ern country have made heavy drafts upon
our young men, but the tide of emigra
tion is being checked, and many who have
gone elsewhare to seek their fortune are
returning to spend their days in Maine. A
larger proportion of those who have gone
abroad within the last ten years to get a
living have failed, than those who remain
ad and took their chances at home. Any
neighborhood in the State can settle this
question for itself by glancing at facts
within its knowledge, and we doubt not
that the result in the aggregate of neigh
borhoods woipd.be in favor of those who |
have remained at home.
WAS SPL1XT£BS.
Ttt Krs-f of PniMii honestly owned a
defeat U Orleans, in a de«puch to the
Qxet. If rack occurrences were more fre
the good king would cot be to ready to
acknowledge them.
The scene of battle between the forces of
General de Paladines and those of General
Ton der Tann was at Cullmaic, a small vil
lage on the Loire, near Orleans, and not
Coulommieres, where some correspondents
place it. The last named is a town in the de
partment of Seine et Marne. and only a few
miles east of Paris.
Late adrice-t from Orleans dwell upon the
enormous exactions of the Prussians, who ob
tained many supplies evidently not for the
troops. It is also related that many acts of
extreme cruelty were committed by the Prus
sians in the surrounding villages to terrify
those suspected of harboring Francs-tireurs.
A correspondent, writing from Versailles
on the 8th, says no bombardment of Paris
will take place for a long time yet, if ever.
The hope now is the city will be starved out.
The cable says the French are going to eat

The telegraph has gained a good many vic
tories and done wonderful things for the
Frsnch, but the rascally Prussians will keep
marching on.
The French have their wits at work. They
are inventora as well as warriors. A grand
balloon is in process of construction for tin
purpose of hovering over the suburbs and re
viewing the operations of the Prussians.
The idea of the concern is very unique. The
body, or inflated hag, is made of silk, in
the shape of a fish, and when it rides in the
air it has a similar position to that of it fish
in undisturbed water. An engine, with boil
ers, is attached, of very ingenious pattern,
and these together only weigh about 150 lbs.
The balloon is so constructed with the car
and attachments that twelve persons can us- j
cend at once and still be at perfect liberty. ]
A novel apparatus propels the monster \
through the air, and steering gear regulates
the motions, determines the direction and j
modifies either the ascent or descent. De
siring to rise the manager goes up an inclined '
plain, the same as a fish would in trying tu
make the surface; and likewise in going
down the movements are reversed. The
builder conceives that lie will be able to bring
the balloon to a state of rest; sail it either
against the wind or at a very acute angle
with iu direction, and that he can maintain
any given position at liberty. Great confi
dence is expressed in the ultimate success of
his project.

calculated to insure the protection of society
and the political redemption of the State.” j
The News adds : “We cannot live ns we arc.

The Inland of Maui—The Largest Crater
on the Olooe— Sugar Plantation.
IIoNOLrtx, S. I., Oct. 23d 1870.
The Island of llaui is the second in size
of the Hawaiian group, being about fifty miles
long by half as many in breadth. It is also
one of the most interesting both to the pleas
ure tourist, and commercially, as it presents
some of the grandest scenery in the world,
and turnishes a large share of the most im- ;
portant product of the country, viz. sugar.
A voyage in one of the little coasters,
which, until very recently, afforded the only
means of inter-island navigation, subjects one
to the climax of sea misery. A contracted
cabin, and a deck crowded with a medly of
natives, horses, dogs and goats, offer little
space for comfort. -The vesseltackingagainst
the trade wind and meeting the current per
forms such antics ns any well used stomach
strongly resents. A trip of thirty hours brings
the little craft to her anchorage in a little
hay of Wailuku. Civilization and barbarism
seem to be mingled in the first incident that
occurs, viz., the coming out of a canoe, pro
pelled through the waves with strokes of
tierce energy by two natives destitute of cloth
ing except the scanty waist-cloth. They pre
sented an ideal picture of savages, but their
errand was one significant of civilization, for
they had come out to get the mail-bag.
The particular object of your correspondent's
visit to this Island, was to view the extinct
volcano, Ilaleakala. From the vessel's deck
the mountain was to be seen lifting up its
huge bulk to the eastward, a belt of clouds
partially girdling it midway, while the summit
stood out clear in the light of the setting sun.
It seemed a short and easy ride to the top,
but in reality the distance from the beach was
twenty miles. The traveller in this kingdom
finds no hotels, but the want of things more
than supplied by the free and open hospitality
which everywhere meets one who is well au
thenticated.
It was our fortunate lot to find u pleasant
welcome to the house of a venerable mission
ary whose station is at Makawao, a point
about ten miles from the beach. Its elevation
of some two thousand feet above the sea
brought a change of temperature especially
grateful by contrast with a residence of sev
eral months in the warm air of Honolulu.
The fig tree here flourishes luxuriantly side
by side with the peach, while orange trees la
den with green fruit, held out attractive
promise.
Horses having been abtained and an excel
lent guide, our party of four set out at noon
of a September day. with a fair promise of
the favorable weather for which we had wait
ed two days. The ride to the top of Haleak
ula is a very easy one for mountain travelling.
There is a gradual slope from the summit to
the sea, of eight or ten degrees, and a well
defined path marks the course. The sides of
the mountain are covered with grass to within
a few rods of the summit. Here and there
are clubs of koa trees, resembling small oaks,
but not so symmetrical or full. There ure
aUo bushes in profusion, the Sandal-wood
and the ohtlo, the latter producing an edible
berry, beautitul in appearance but quite insipid
to an unitiated palate. The upward journey
is rewarded by the view below which grows in
beauty at every stage. After a ride of five
hours and a half, relieved by an occasional
stop for lunch and to obtain supplies of water
and wood, the guide gives a shout which an
nounces that the goal is reached. The
wearied horses are spurred forward, and we
find ourselves on ti e lirn of avast basin, so
filled at the moment with vapor that only
through an occasional rift could an idea be
gained of its depth. As darkness was fast
coming on we hastened preparations for the
night’s encampmentand defered the survey un
til morning. Our shelter was an overarching
rock beneath which, with the aid of blankets
and fire a tolerable degree of comfort was
secured. lieing now at an elevation of near
ly two miles above the sea level, the air had
a touch of sharpness that to a New Englander
was a very home-like feeling. Some sensa
tions less pleasant were experienced by some
of us from the rarity of the air. It produced
giddiness, and pain in the eyes and ears with
slight nausea. But those inconveniences were
of small account amid such wonders of na
ture as were around us.
The object in passing a night upon the
mountain had been to gain a view of the sun
rise and also to see the crater at the early
hour when it was most likely to be free from
clouds. The reward for our pains was fully
received. The morning revealed a spectacle
magnificent beyond all description. To the
eastward, far below the level of the eye, lay a
stratum of clouds, the upper surface of which
looked like an immense field of pifrest snow,
or ruthcr something more light and fleecy.
From the under side gathered into dark folds
a shower was falling. In the opposite direc
tion the vast shadow of the mountain stretch
ed aw ay over leagues of sea, while against
the sky rose in clear outline, the three peaks
of the neighboring island Hawaii. Looking
off by way of the ascent a varied prospect
greeted the eye. Beneath the feet seemed a
great plain (although really a part ot the
mountain side) cut by deep ravines, and di
versified with elevations, crater-like in form.
Then came the narrow isthmus which joins
the two distinct portions of the island,and be
yond a group of mountains,their heads crown
ed with a turban of fleecy clouds. On either
side the vast Pacific was spread out, without
a sail to break the monotony of the broad
surface.
These varied views, so grand and beautiful
as to beggar all description, would themselves
have been a recompense for the labor of the
trip. But it was the crater itself which form
ed the great object of my expedition. Imag
ine an oval basin, twenty miles in circum
ference, the sides black precipices from a
thousand to twenty-five hundred feet in height
the bottom a plain, across which extends a
line of conical bills,some black, others gray,
but most of a deep reddish tint. In general
shape they are like circular mounds with the
top slightly scooped out. As seen from the
rim of the great crater in which we stood
these cones appeared of comparatively slight
elevation, but measurement has shown some
of them to be not less than seven hundred j
feet high. They are composed of cinders and ]
scoria, and each was at one time a volcanic
vent through which lava poured out from the
central fires of the earth.
The walls of the great crater are not of
unbroken continuity. On the north and the
: east are two vast breaks from one to three
\ miles wide through which in a bygone age the
liquid fire flowed to the sea. The imagination
is overpowered in the attenjpt to picture the
scene when this huge cavity, with an area
of sixteen square miles was a cauldron
filled with melted rock which with terrible
convulsion that rent asunder the sides
and rolled out to the sea in a vast river of
fire. The interior caves spoken of, which
are in fact craters within a crater, nre
the product of later and lesser volcanic
action.
We did not descend into the interior for
although the bottom may be reached without
great difficulty,the ascent is extremely ardu
ous. Xot only is there hard climbing requir
ed,but the rarified uir makes all exertion very
exhausting. A wholesome warning was upon
our minds derived from the experience of
otheis.
The story is told of two visitors at this spot,
not long ago,who thought they would take a
run down to the bottom, of the crater and
back before breakfast. The first part of the
programme was accomplished, but the second
was a dismal failure. It was nearly sunset
betore they accomplished lluir return, in a
state of exhaustion, from hunger, thirst and
fatigue, which only those can imagine who
have had a taste of such experiences. Incit
ing amusement as well as help to a conception
of the height of the walls of the crater is af
forded by starting large stones. There is
abundant material for this sport in the num
berless rocks of every shape and size that lie
at hand. The stone started with little effort,
gathers soon a tremendous momentum, in
some places raising a cloud of dust,and pres
ently leaping a hundred feet tlirough the air,
us it goes ov er a precipice and starting other
rocks which seem to join in a mad race,down,
down till the eye is strained to follow, yet
long after they are thought to have come to
rest, some one cries “there it goes” and a
keen vision detects it shooting along at the
bottom with the speed and destructive power
of a cannon ball.
llaleokala is the largest crater in the world.
No activity has taken place within the period
of tradition nor is there any trace of linger
ing fire, no steam or vapor, nor even a warm
spring.
A few hours after,sunrise began to float in
to the interior,sailing in from the sea through
the gap betore spoken of, like white winged
ships entering a harbor. After a time the
fog completely fills it, cutting oil' ull views.
The natives still retain some superstitious
fears in connection with this region, many
believing that if the sand is scratched in par
ticular places or a certain plant (the beauti
ful Silver Sword) is plucked, the evil spirits
will bring in fog and rain to bewilder the trav
eller.
There is other grand scenery on this island
ot Maui, such as Wailuku valley mentioned
by all tourists,but space will not permit notice
of it. The production of sugar is carried on
extensively. The land returns a yield ol
from three to six tons per acre. Chinese la
borers are extensively employed, for the
natives have so sadly diminished in number,
that they eaunot supply the want. The pros
perity of the Islands depends largely upon
this interest, and every endeavor is made to
foster it. C. G. M.

A writer in the Prerque Isle Sunrise, who
has lately visited Kingman, the new tannery
village which is being built up on the Matla
wamkeag river about nine miles from the
mouth of the Aruostook road, on the line of
the E. & N. A. Hallway, states that there is
paid out there and in the vicinity, for labor,
§1000 per day in cash. The tannery com
pany have built the past summer a saw-mill
with a circular saw which cuts 800 feet of
lumber per hour, and have in operation a
shingle machine, planing machine, boring
machine, clapboard machine, and lathe ma
chine. They have built 21 dwelling houses
and a large barn since the 8th of July last.
A canal has been made one hundred rods long
which carries the water to the main tannery
building, which is 450 feet long, and some
80 feet wide, which requires 450,000 of shin
gles to cover it. Another building is to be
erected immediately, 300 feet long, lor a dry
house.
An exchange relates that a Foxcroft man
having occasion to cleanse a cider barrel
thought he would use quiek-lime. So he put
a quantity into the barrel and turned water
upon it, and to make the work more perfect,
put in the bung to keep the stenm in. Find
ing, however, that the strain upon the barrel
was rather severe, he undertook to take the
bung out again and while doing so the barrel
exploded, covering him with hot lime and se
riously scalding him. His children who were
watching the operation, came in for a share
of the spoils rather to the detriment of their
clothing.

A correspondent of the Whig writes that
the barn belonging to the old Low place in
Guilford, was burned Monday morning at
about 2 o’clock. It was well filled with hay
and grain, and owned by Mr. Joseph Deer
ing. The wind was blowing directly towards
the house, but that was saved without much
damage. Two yokes of steers, ahorse, and
cow, carriage and harness, and all Mr. Peer
ing’* farming tools were burned. It is thought
that the lire was the work of an incendiary.
We see it stated that Alden Litchfield, ac
