IBALISM,
. ~, , .
There is at 4 interesting artielejri
the last Londimi Quarterly, on "The.
Islands of thee Pacific :". The writer
does not spealf, hopefully of the con
dition of the Oeople who inhabit the
Polynesian greups. The present state
of these people,
he remarks, "shows
tine" endeney if men to descend low
er and lowerin the social scale as they
become more Widely ! 'Separated in
to small: igelated bodies: The Fi
jiians are repisalted as equal, if not
superior, to o er tribes of Polynesia,
i t
not only in stitength and courage, but
in induiry angskill. They are also
as numerous'A lany other tribes liv
ing within distances which admit, by
means at thehscommand, of frequent
intercourse; yet their wanton destruc
tion of human : life equals that' of the
worst types of (humanity, and their
cannibalism faS• 'exceeds all that bad
ever been imagined as possible among
beings bearing the semblance of men.
. Other races:. ! n Polynesia, continues
the writer, ha* sunk as low and per
haps lowerin me kinds of debase
ment whieh . 0' 'rage the instincts of
our nature ;b 'in feasting' en human
flesh the . Fijii 1 surpass them all.—
)
This praeti .-WiS":110t an - oodasiontil;'
but alino.st an universal habit; and
the various means Used to enhance
the horrible pleasure it
. afforded, ele
vated it among them to the rank of
an art. "Human bodies," according
to Mr. Williams, in his book, Fiji and
the Pijiians, "were eaten in many of
the frequently occurring events of
life, on the building of a temple,com
mencing the structure of a canoe,
launching the canoe; and moil were
sometimes killed to furniSh blood With
which to wash the decks of a newly
made canoe and the bodies of such
men were eaten." •
On.the arriVal of a new canoe at
an island, fourte'en or fifteen men
have been killed and baked to make a
feast. The same orgie has taken
place on lowering the mast fer the
first time. On one occasion, when
the number of bodies procured Will
more than could be consumed, the
legs and arms. were eaten and the
trunks thrown away. • Two days were
occupied in cutting off and cooking
the limbs. in the year 1851, fifty bod
ies were cooked at one time at Nome
na. Prisoners taken in war and thoSe
who escaped from shipwreck, were usu
ally eaten- 7 411C ft:inner being first of
fered to the war god, and then prepar
ed for food. Sometimes the body ,was
baked whole, and, when removedfrorn
the oven, was placed in a sitting pos
ture. It was then covered with a
black powder and carried about as if
alive. The :Review: continues :
A Fijiian has been known: to lead
his ; wife to the plantation and, when
the work was finished, has sent her
to fetch fuel for the oven and a bam
boo knife to cut Pp the victim. His
order having been obeyed he killed
and baked. her. Young women ,were
sometimes placed alive among heaps
of vegetable's and other food present
ed to the,chiefs before being , cooked,
The victims were confined to neither
age nor sex; grey-headed persons and
children of both sexes were all devo
ted to the purpose. Some of the.
ebiefs n ever, -. 40 human flesh,
but they were exceptions to the
fnass of the people; women seldom
touched the - unhallowed food. When
a chief' has wished to have the 'Skull
of an enemy for a soup-dish or drink
ing cup, orders have been given not
to strike the victim on the head.—
The butchery was sometinics render
ed more horrible by the infliction of
tortures—such , as cutting off- the
victim while still living, cooking and
- eating them before him, -and even
Making partake:of hiS own flesh. The
number of bodies consumed by some
of the chiefs - appears also almost in
credible.
It is gratifying
.to know ; after read 7
ing these frightful details; that this and
other hateful usages has been almost
entirely abandoned and the approach
of then so circumstanced, even-to the.

PECtFLIAR CUSTOMS OF THE
JAPANESE
A letter from .Japan gives some par-,
ticulars of the manners and customs.
of that peculiar people. In some re
! spects they appear to be more virtu
ous than people boasting of higher
civilization. MalverSatiOwby a nine
ti on ary, ()tub ekal em on t ofpublic funds,
extortion, bribery of officials;coining
of false, money, murder, and robbery,
I are punished with 'death, and not on
ly thnanilty person-, but of his fath
er, children, and oven all his male rel
atives, Who are exed'uted'at the same
Moment, however distant they may
be one froth, another. This system,
1 which is repugnant to European no
tions, and to Sound , principles of jus
tice, appears, toi be :adopted by - the
Japanese from the,,belief that 'crime
1 4's ms-`owing
The modes of punishMent adopted
in Japan- are of different sorts, but
all are horrible. The principal is cru
cifi*ion, 'and is reserved for traitors,.
murderers, and i n cend iari es. The
culprit is astened on the cross head
downwards, and is left to die, unless
I he obtains the favor of being I
patched by stabs from a poignard.—
For parricide and adultery, culprits
are plunged into boiling oil. Petty
robberies, insults, calumny, fraud,even
at play, and false testimony before
magistrates are punished by hanging
or beheading. If the offenders be
gentlemen or soldiers, their bowels
are opened = they have even the privi
lege of performing the operation on
themselves. Pecuniary, lines are al
most unknown. TO corporal pun
ishment of the whip
~and bastinado
are reserved for slaves and servants,,
and are inflicted by their masters,
not by public executioners. The Jap
anese consider corporal punishment so
disgraceful that mothers never strike ,
their offspring.
'Although the climate is enervating
yet:children arc-brought up hardily.
They are made to bearhunger, thirst,
cold, pain, excessive labor, and the
rigor of the seasons. .Horror of false
hood and fraud, and love'of modesty,
justice, and virtue, are diligently in
culcated. One of the result of this
system of education is to inspire the
-Japanese with a -passion for books,
which causes surprise in European
visitors.
The bookselling trade . in Japan is
subjected to no restriction, and there
are everywhere,. even in towns of
small population, numerous book
shops. Great part of the literature
of the Japanese is Chinese; and their
knowledge of arts and agriculture is
derived from the : same - people. The
language commonly employed is ev
-oty year becoming more Chinese in
character. Yet the Japanese despise
the Chinese; they do so because from
their early age they have been taught
that the Chinvse are not soldiers;
`that in ancient times a JapaneSe army
• defeated . an immense Chinese armyin
Corea ; and that Coxinga himself,
whO was the scourge of the sea and
the terror of the Chinese Empire, was
'a Japanese—as Were also the greater
part of his campanions..
AFFECTING INCIDENT
On one of the many bridges in
Ghent, stand . two large, brazen
es of .father -and son, *fici obtained'
:
this distinguished mark of adMira
ton of their fellow citizens by the
fbllowing incident :
Both the father and the son were,
for some offence against the State,
condeMned to die.
.Some favorable'
circumstances appearing on .the side
of the kin, lie was granted a 'Troia- '
sion of his . sentence,
under certain
provisionsi in short, he was offered a
pardon on a inosterueland barbarous
condition—namely, that he would be
come the executioner of his father !
He at first resolutely refused to
_pre
serve his life by meansso fataland de
testable. _This is not to be wondered
at; for let us hope, for the honor of
our nature, that there are very few
sons who would not have spurned
With abhorence life sustained on a
condition so horrid and unnatural.—
The son, though inflexible, was at.
length overcome by the tears and en
treaties of a fond thther who: repre
sented to him that, at all events, his
(the father's)- life was forfeited, and
that it'would be the greatest-posaible
consolation for him in hislast moments
to think that in his death he -was an
instrument of his-son's' preservation:
The youth consented to adopt the
horrible means of rbeevering hi i life
and liberty.; he lifted the axe—but as
it was about to.,fall, his arm sunk
nerveless;' and the ake. _dropped from
his hand! Had he as ,many lives as
.hairs! ' he couldhave yielded them all,
one after another, rather than again
conceive, much lessperpetrate such an
act. Life, liberty, everything vanish
ed before the dearer interests of' filial
affection; ho fell upon his father's
neck, and embracing him, triumphant
' ly exclaimed, «My father! my fath
er!' we die together!" and then call
ed for another exebutionerto fulfil the
sentence of-the. law. • :

IS THE EARTH DRYING UP ?
Water, although a very unstable el
orrienit produces quite permanent ef
fects upon the face of our 'globe. It
cuts doW'n mountains, scoops out val
leys, wears away precipices, and builds•
new lands along the river . motiths.-•-=
Alway4 - see4ing a level itself, it is the
oreatestle.veler of dry land. Most of
the surfaetv., our; globe, having been
elevated by Siit - •terranean violence, has

' ll l`trus the age of 'any
portion of the- earth's surface may in
some Measure be deter Mined by the
character of its'sti , eams, and the gen
eral distribution of Water upon its sur
face.
In , those countries, like, France and
Brazil, whose rivers are smooth and
navigable, no lakes are, foUnd, while in.
those in which they,exiSt7the rivers
are full of cataracts, and are in a great
measure unnavigabe. In the course
of one or two iithousand centuries,
most of the lakes in our States will
he drained, the cataracts 'obliterated,
and we shall lose all our water power.
This contingency, however, is so dis
tant, that we do not suppose ;it. will
affect the price of Manufacturing
stock hi this century.
Lakes and cataracts have, at some
Period, diversified the scenery of all
regions: Where they do not now ex
ist; they have been obliterated through
the corrosive effect of ruining water:
But evidences of their former exis
tence arc found in their dry beds and
channals. The fact that dry river
channels and waterless lakes are to be .
found in madly lands - once fertile, but
now barren, has led tethe conclusion,
on the part of some geologiitS, that
there is a gradual modifying of the
aqueOus vapors ; and consequently of
water, on the face of this terrestrial
world. In a paper read before the
British Association it is argued from
the existence of .dried.up. riVer'S that
the earth is approaching-a waterless
condition, in .which it will be impossi
ble for man to continue an inhabitant.
This seems to us tobe a hasty conclu
sion, although,, as the earth is to be
destroyed by fire, it is but natural,
perhaps, that it should first undergo
.a drying process. Still we' think it
quite proliakde4at there:is as much
