.A.jet of lava of more stupendous propor
tion. than anfy, ever conceived of, ?s descrlibed
by Mr. Conn in the Imoii Pr/cna, of Feb
ruary, ini his account of the eruptioni of Manua
Loa, on the Island of UJau ali:
The eruption commenced near the summit
of the mountain, and only five or. six miles
southeast ef the erup tion in 18S3. For tu 0
days this summit crater sent.down its burning
floods alcng the northeastern slepe of the
mouuntain ; then sudidenlyv the vale closed, una
the great .furnace appare.t4y cased bi st.
After thirty'-six hours the fusit was seen burst
ing out of the eastern side (f the mountain,
about mi lway from the top of the base.
It woul seem that the .summ*it lava had
found a subterranean tunnel, for half w av
down the mountain, wThen comingt to a weakt
point, or meeting with some obstruction, it
burst up verticamlly, sending a column of incan
descent fusia one thousand feet high into the
air. This fire jet wasl about 'one hundredC
feet in diameter, and it was sustained for
twenty days and nigots. varying in height
froim one hundred to a thousand feet. 'The
disgorgemient from the mountain side was of
ten with terrific expiosions, which shook the
hills, and with detonations which were heard
for forty miles. This column of liquid fire
was an object of surpassing brilncyv, of i:
tense and awful grandeur. As the jct isua
from the awful orifice it u as at white heat.
As it assended higher it rh&lden, d like fresh
blood, deepenmizg its co'or, m.til in its des.cent
much:of m.t assumed the color of cletted gore.
Sa few daws it had raised a cone some
thre' hundred feet high around the burning
*ri.fice, and as the snowers of burning miner
als fell in livid torrents upon the cone, aind
quiveri-ng with restless action, and sendmng
out it become one vast heap of g2)wmng coals,
flashing the heat of ten thousand furnaces in
full blast. The struggles in -iisgorging the
fiery masses, the upward rush of the colano,
the force which raised it one thousand verti
cal feet, and the continuou4 fahing back of
thousands of tons of minetal fui-- into the
throat of the crater, and over a cone of glow
ing minerals, one naile in cirenn:fereonce, was
a sight to inspire awe and terror, attended
with explosive shocks which seememd to rend
the mural ribs of the mnountinm, and sound to
waken the dead and startle the sKh isi lladles.
From this fountain a river of fire went rush
inigand leaping down the mountain with
amazing velocity, fillir.g up basins and ravines,
dashing over precipices, and expluding rooks
until it reached the for est at the base of the
mountain, where it burned its fiery way, con
suming the jungle,.gvaporating the water of
the streams and po~ols, cutting down thme trees,
and sending up clouds ot smu:>ke and( stean ,

EcTivE AFPOiNTMENTS-T1F PRESUENT
FI:I1\os TO lce:n: THE Pi:FERENcE - i th
in a fed days past a great change is notice
able in the unt ter of the Executive appOint
::ezits. Thc President seem to have reaLizel
that Ilon ger forhearac ;Ce with the enemIlies of
his d'ImlIinistration' and it. measures was - ork
ing ratn iJust;ce to his friends, and to hav
reaiz r R te potency (f the old iart axun
that "t t!e vict)rs belong the spt)ils." As a
consequence, the Radical', who nustered ef
frunterv enough t call upon the President
and scIt it ap: f:ttitments for their friencds, r e
ceived little rewa? d fur teir la,ors, atnd were
treated to a plain expositiion of hi; intentions
fur the future. They were tod in langguge
dcie ad unmistak:.L that Li; ft inds
shuld have the p; eference, and that no known
enemy of the a<hninistratibn policy should re
. ceive the 'Pasi e(oXment if a Federal ap
P'i nn t. In addition to this, the axe has
iactulIV been set to work, and deanations
ar now of daily occurrence. Its effects arC
already vis1ible in the altered an l respectful
d epor t~men't of mloreC than onl RaIdie:l oppo
tncnt in both brach~ues of Congress. Hlereto
tofoire, when the President's private secretary)
was senit to the Canicali on1 ofilejnl business hec

was 'bsoutely in~suhing. W ithinc a few day s

ruptur~Ie of the ft iemdly relations that shonul
exist between the Presidlent and( Contgre5n,
ad who vie with eaeb other in bestowintg at
tntiIns, tutterling pretty specChes and( depre
cating the idea that they are or ever were in
h,tifity to the Executive. But the work will
o on. No one will be received by hollow
pretences. Those oPiceblolders who have
abused their positions to vilify the President
and disrupjt the Rep ubl ican piarty will be 1nole1
to give way to better meno. The hare mamn
