The American clipper ship Snow and Burgess, wh eh recently conflicted loading ol nt the old navy -yard piers for Ju)uin. visit d an unfrequented part of the world on her voyage from Port Blakely, Washington Territory, to I'h l- iitlelli a. l'.ti uirn' Island, the spot v.s.U-d, is a lonely and d. slant land in tho Eolith Pacilio Ocean, Lit tilde .wenty-livo degrees threo minutes, and longitude 130 degrees eight minutes west. It is two and one-quarter miles in length and 0110 mile in breadth. The shores rise almost perpendicularly, and there is but one accessible landing j, lace, Bounty Bay. The island is cov ered with a luxuriant verdure, and tho bases of its lofty oli.is nre skirted with thickly-branching evergreens. Its in habitants are especially interesting, be- t aiHe tu -v ure Uc.sccuiiaut.s ol the 11111- t.net-rs of tho famous ship Bounty, mid are isolated from the entire world. Tho islanders are described by Captain An- d.Tson as a community such as has been the dream of poets ami tho aspirations of philosopliors. James Russell Mc Coy, the chief magistrate of the country, With all ot tho men, came o:t in a large wha'.cOoat and boarded tho Snow and B.irgess miles out at sea. They re poried the entiro population to bo 130 souls, all of whom wero enjoying good health. In 1787 the ship Bounty set sail from England, under tho direction of the English Government, for tho Society Islands for a stock of brcai-fru t trees. J lie s.aulol laniti was readied in safety ami the trees collected, but the Bounty had not proceeded long on her return voyage when the majority of her crew, overcome by tho temptation of leading a l.fu of total idleness and dis, sipation in a luxurious climate, deter mined to mutiny. Ono of the mates, Fletcher Christian, was tho leader of the mutiny, and out of a crew of forty six men sixteen only remained true to their commander. Captain Bligh was afterward put in a boat with sixt.-en of his crew and turned adrift in the ocean. Afraid of being captured, Christian left Pitcairn and landed at .Norfolk Island, and again left thero for Pitcairn Island, where most of his descendants now re side. For years tho English Govern ment ntiposetl all hands had perished, as nothing ha i been K'en of them. In mm Captain lolirer of the snip lopaz. of Boston, called at Pitcairn for water, and, having supposed it to be uninhab ited, was much surprised to see a canoe with two men of a light brown hue ap proach tho vessel and request in good English that a ropo be thrown to them. 1 hey were tho descendants of the mu- t'neers. hen this news rea died En gland the war ship Pandora was i-ent 10 PitcaTn anil se;zed sixteen of the men and carried them to England, vh ;re they were promptly executed. At a distance the island is complete ly h dden in the trees, so that from the sea it appears uninhabited. Wtie.. the men boarded the Snow and Durgcss thoir dress was a perfect c.irieuturo. Soma wore long biai-k coats without any othor article of dress; others had shirts without coats, and st.ll olhers woro waisteoa-its without either of the lirst-mentioned garmonU None had shoes or stockings, and only two pos sessed hats, neither of which seemed likely to hang long together. Cats lead charmed lives at Pitca'rn. Tho law in regard to these animals is that if a cat is killed without being pos'tivoly detected in killing fowls, however strong tho suspicion nuiv be, the person killing such cat is obliged, as a penalty, t destroy three hundred rats, whose ta ls must be submitted to tho inspection of tho Magistrate by way of proof that tho penalty has been paid. The females, nearly all of whom aro unmarried, nre tall, "straight and hand some, with black, glossy hair and ivory teeth, and have generally a piece of cloth for clothing, of their own manu facture, reaching from tho waist to the knees. Sometimes they carry a loose piece oicioin to protect tliem Iniin tlio sun or the severity of the weather. It is believed that " continued Intermar riage In so small a community has be gun to produce iu usual ell'octs, and that both physical degeneracy and meu tal weakness are likely to appear iu tho future. For this reason tho English Government will no doubt remove tliem before many years. Tho only business at the island consists in furnishing fruits to passing vessels. rhilaktphid lleeord," MIRAMBO. Death of the Mitn Whom Htnty L'alleiT tlir Napoleon of Africa. A dispatch from Zanzibar tho other day announced tho death of M r uubo, whom St uiley called tho Napoleon of Africa. Mirambo has for fifteen years been tho terror of East Africa, and ex plorers used to bring homo startling .stones about the robber chief. He proved, however, to bo ono of tho best friends of the whites among African potentates, and all tho later explorers speak well of him. Mirambo was tho chief of a littlo dis trict in Unyamwczi, about 100 miles east of Lako Tanganyika. He treated tho Arabs who had settled near him with great friendliness, and oft n gave tifty cattle at a time as a present to anybody whom ho esteemed. One of tho traders took advantage of his good nature to obta'n a large quantity of ivory on cred t Ho then laughed at Mirambo for trusting him, and refused pavment, and tho Arabs ntUnyrnycinbe turned thoir backs 611 Mirambo when ho asked for justice. They have rued the day ever since they made him an enemy. Ho never forgavo the wrong. He beat them repeatedly in battle, and li 11 ally filled them w.th such abject terror that they have 111010 than- onco simply bar ricaded themselves in their houses when ho entered Unyenyembe, nnd let him drivo oft their cattle without ottering any resistance. For years ho was con stantly on tho move, extending his do minion and . bringing destruction upon all tribes that did not submit. Ho became tho most feared and most powerful chief between tho Indian Ocean and Tanganyika. African mothers east of that lake and south of Myassa have long used tho namo Mirambo as a bugaboo to subdue re fractory children. White trawlers nnd missionaries found another side to Miranibo's character. They discovered that h; fa thfully kcjd his jiromiscs, nnd that when he sroko he m 'ant exactly what he said. He treated oue ami nil kindly. A nourishing mission station is in his chief town. Stores of all sorts left in Mirambo's charge have been carefully kept from damage or thieves to await tho call of the owner. The cara vans from the coast that siip!y tho Tanganyika Mission Stations now avoid tho old route through the Arab settlementi, and pass through M:ratn bo's country. A few white men and tho devoted followers who hclp'id him extend h s power will mourn his do- parture. The rest of East Africa is probably very glad he is dead. .V. Y. Sun. AURICULAR. A jioelliUxes Wllldl CI111 r.u-h-r. The Facial Tell of A very pojmlar writer makes the broad assertion that the hair and tho ears arc true ind ces of the character anil intelligence of their possessors. Good, do-drablo hair, Indicating broad no and slability of character as well as profund ty and ivuteness of intelli gence, may be bought; consequently one rather inclines to dubiousness on the flowing locks1 question. But upon the ear tenet of this new doctr.no, ono feels like joining hands with the writer, and whispering to him: "Thou hast touched tlio spot. J lie author of tho theory savs a man with broad, oyster- shell ears, having the usual number of winkles, may bo safely classed as an individual of rare intellect and estab lished character. The number is small and going out of fashion. Never seek to be familiar with the man who has fat ears. A man with such cars needs practical sympathy. Tho chances aro ho will tell you bo. When you see a man with little, shriveled ears, which have the aptcaranee of having been glued upon the sides of h's head, do not introduce ladies to him as a desirable man for marriage execjit ho be a mil lionaire. A long car plainly indicates firmness of character. I'h'g is jio.m liarly characteristic of Chicago. The longer the oar the greater the hrraness. Well developed ears, neither too long nor too thick, with no tendency to Hop, and having a shrimp pink color indicate a docile creature. There are some drawbacks to this art of read ng a man's character by his cars. For in stance, the high collars worn by our most popular men have a tendency to conceal tho ear, but beneath will bo found the indicat on of obstinaey and vanity, without common sense, though much eloquence.
