8UMMARY OF THE WEEK.

The Roman Oatholie Mission has this week piibiiehed a iarge Malagasy Freneh Dietionary, by Fathers Abinal and Malzao, S. J., Père Abíhal it will be remembered reeentiy died in Antananarivo. The Dietionary eontains 810 pages and is eompiled on the same ìines as Mr. Riehardson’s Màlagàsy- English one. Thereis evtden'ee ef iriueh ^tady, 'eare and labonr ih the work, ànd beihg.a i'ater editioh than the English oneit.is neeessarily a iittie fnlier. From an Eiiglish prmter’s point of view the quality of the paperand the type leave sothething to be desired ; but Tne Fréneh do not eonsider theso matters as we do, :and the work is nndorihtedly a very pra.iseworthy aehievement. The book i's ori sale fet ÀnHohàio, priee $5.

«■ • • ,The first niimher for the year of the Malagàsy

offieial Joiirnal, Ny Gazety Maiagasy, appegred last Saturday, and i's in mourriirig fò'r ’tiie áeath óf Her Ma- jesty’s Grandmothór. It eontains twó Ro’ýàl Pro- elamations ; one ordering all the Governòrs of Iffierina to eome to Antananàri'vo for the 6th òf Febmary. And the seeond forbidding any persòns outsidebring- ing the bodies of relat'iveè from thè eoast for iriter- ment iri Imerina on aeeonnt of the prevalenee of small pox. A Notièe informs ris that the Tele- graph Line between the Oapital and Ántananarivo is now the property of the Malagasy Governinent.

*Now that the Telegraph Serviee is ín the hands

of tlie Malagasy, it will be interestirig to see tbis year how its working will eoinpare with its non-working of last year. Mr. Meses Andrianisa is Direetor. Already every village along the line has appointed a nnmber of ffien whose sole drity is to keep eare of a eertain number of miles of line. The3e men are exempted frorii any other serviee—military or fanom- poana—Any person tampering with the line is liable 'to a fine of 5 oxen and £1 ; arid any person inform- ing the aiithorities of an infringement of this Bye Law will reeeive a reward of £1, if his iriformatiòn be true. It Jooks at last as if we are eoniing to business. The Freneh pretended reeently that natives 'cut the wire, and they bronght up speeimens of the ivire cut through as eiean as with a eoid ehisel ou an 'anvil. Such peopie must be devoid of eommon sense. Let ariy óne susperid à telegraph wire in a loop of 80 yards and explain to us how a Malagasv could strike it so as to cut it throiigh in one stroke, and with what tool he would do it. If a Malagasy Wirihed to injure the line by maliee, he need oniy run àgàinst òne of the posts, so why should he take the tròuble to spoil the edge of his axe. The eontraet was a disgracefully fulfillod one, small greeri little polea were used, and everythiág was slovenly. Mr. Maiugard, the party who eontraeted with the Resident for bringing the line rip; had so rauch diffienlty in getting a settlemerit of his affairs with the Freneh Resident in 1887 thatheeame to our offiees with the intention of exposing every thirig in these eòlnmns. The Resident got wind of it and Mr. Maingard suddenly found niatters settled ; but that there was something from beginning to end in the whole aiìair which shuns day-light is evident. It is all over now and the Government are the owners, bnt as a matter of history these faets must be reeorded.

SOMMAIRE DE LA SEMAINE^

Some people have a riatural tendeney to advertise themseves while others hide thèir light under a bushel. Golonel Shervinton and Major Graves the English offieers in Her Majesty’s Serviee have not yet adopted the pompous system of having their eadets tootle-tootled through Andohalo everv day by buglers as does the Freneit Oaptain Lavoiseau with his Maiagasy pupils. Captain Lavoi.seaii’s eadets are all tall soldierly looking fellows, and do him eredit, but their eomparison with the Freneh óft. 1 ineh littíe men who aeeompany thern, is not favourable to tlie latter. . Moreover the eìeaaiiriess and general tenue of the Freneh soldiers the other dav eompared sò unfavoUrahly with tbe Malagasy soldiers ae- eompanying them that people remarked it on the

’Streets and from their windows. Brave good fellows donbtless tbe Freneli are wberi it eoriies to fighting, but in matters of parade unless Oaptain Lavoiseau

‘ean. rendey eomparisons less 'odions for the prest.ige of eivilized troops, we sbould advise ìiim to bririg bis irieri iu by a bàek street.

If it pays and Mr Piekers-j d„c„ra0„, »„ has reeontiygill intends tokeep it up, we eannot “”Pla'n o( been eirenlated i„ Antananariro, waa the eirelar-on as we are going ; but would ìt not bo pernaps 1 , , . ,moro ayetematie to'make every Sat„rday-the „s„al letter passed reand last Taesday, and whteh w. repre-date of the weekly inail—the day/br a/Z inails, foreign I dnee below, from a Clergyn,a„ ,n Crewe, appealmpor loeal, and lot the public iook out for themselves as tothe partienlar Satnrday for elearing their foreign des- patehes. The differenee is in so many eases only one of a few honrs that it is worth eonsideration. Let us look into it. The speeial mail leaves Antananarivo on the 3rd. and 21st of every month. Now this is a eleso shave, and it is a question whether it slionld not be the 2nd. and 20M. The dates for some time to eome run thus ; at least until further notiee.Jan. 21st last wa8 a Monday Jnly 21st will be SnndayFeb. 3rd will be a Sunday Ang 3rd ,, „ „ SaturdayFeb. 21st n „ Thursday Aug 21st >, „ „ YVednesdayMnr. 3rd M „Sunday Sep. 3rd „ „ „TuesdayMar. 21st i> „Thursdav Sep. 21st „ „ „ SatnrdayApril 3rd M „ Wednesday Oet. 3rd „ „ „ ThursdayApril 21st M ,,Sunday Oet. 21st „ „ „MondayMay 3rd >• „ Friday Nov. 3rd „ „ „8undayMay 21at „ Tnesday Nov. 21st „ „ „ThnrsdayJnne 3rd „ Monday Dee. 8rd „ „ „TuesdayJune 21st „ Friday Dcc. 21st „ „ „ SaturdayJnly 3rd » „ Wednesday

It will be seen that of these dates eleven alreadyfall within Satnrday and Monday, and five on the Tuesday or Wednesday, that is to say, 16 out of 23 are so near the Saturday that Saturday’s mails ought to answer all purposes. There are some people who may have to writ,e next Wednesday something íor Europe which they eannot say to-day. Tbey imn«t be a very small fraetion, and then we have a telegraph-now, and ehould be no longer situated as in the

<olden times, if there is something very vital at stake. Only twice during the year do the 3rd or 21st fall on a Friday, which in those eases would day leave us five days behind the previous Saturday for despatehing our European mails. This seems a long time to some people. But then there are other mails besides the Messageries : those to Natal, Mau- ritins ete., and some at quite unexpected dates ; and by establishing the habit of elearing every week, it would seem that almost every one’s wants would be 6upplied. There are somo people who think it a duty to write all their mails within a few minutes of the advertised time, biit then in Antananarivo we ean never rely npon a margin of less than 40 to 60 hours depar- ture. That custom is a remnant, we suppose, of the old in Colonial days and sailing vessels, when no one dreamt of writing home at »11 iintil a vessel appeared in harbour ; hut in these days most business men ean reply to a great part of their letters within twent,y four hours our toa week ofreceiviug them, and do so. For latest news »11 persons in Antananarivo having serious interests at stake have agentsat the last moitìent. Seeing how things stand— that we have two regnlar mails and several other semi- oeeasjonal ones eaeh month—the uncertainty of the arrival of Freneli mails which, to their eredit, are often rather before than after their advertised date—the far greater uncertainty of overland couriers, the oeeasional advantage of intermediate maiis, which we lose sight of—all these render it a question to be eonsidered whet,her the British Mail for all parts of the world from Antananarivo should not be a weekly one and eombine with the loeal one. It is better to have some letters lie a day or two—or even five, the longest possible iimit if sent on the Saturday previous—in the post offiee at Tamatave, and eateh the,first steamer, than be despatehed at the last monient and miss the mail altogether for 18 davs to sorne parti- «ular destination.

It is not that we have heard a single word of eomplaint—in faet it is just the opposite ; but it is a question as to whether the maehinery of the mails is not uow more eomplieated than the wants of the public demand. Under our proposed system ln èVery individual would eonsider for himself the nearest date following eaeh Saturday upon which he could rely for getting off his mail matter to a particular in destination, and the responsibiiity would remaiu to a eertain cxtent with himself. ín these days, while the British Consular Anthorities are doiug their utmost to make the overland Postal Serviee a most effeetive one such remarks may seem a little retrogres-

It was some time before we could eonvinee him he was not in mortal eombat with a venomous serpent—Gernians are frequently nenr- sighted—bnt afc last we persuaded him it was mereiy a speemen of steel shavings from the Crewe Iron works. The look on his faee ean be imagined by any one fresh out of a Crewe-1 joko. This is all we ean offer the inhabitants of Crewe towarc!s the required £4,500 ; but the letter below inay meet the eyes of others in Madagasear able and willing to build Churches in Engìand :

Barthomby Reetory, Cretce. Nov. 8, 1888.

Dear Sir,Pardon my approaehing you as a total

stranger with referenee to what Ìs very near my hearí. The faet, is we want £ 4,500 to build a Chureh

distant part of rny parish whieh is thiekiypopulated.

Eight years ago I began working there and I begati that part by holding open air Serviees in a field.

Then we raised and spent £4000 in building a large snbstantiai sehool and an Iron Mission Room, and in buying land for these and for the uew Church to stand 011.

All this has meant very hard work and our re- sorirees are uow exhausted. The Church is sorely

eanserte ; and if the system of having »11 kinds of nee(led> so we have determined upon holding a G-rand higgledy-piggledy dates* is working to the satisfaetion I Bazaar in August 1889.

for help from Madagasear to build a Church in oue of the busiest eentres of prosperity and eivilisation in England. It is not many years ago that wo ae- eompanied a number of Malagasy eelehrities over the great iron works at Crewe. The mighty steam hara- mers, the blazing fiirnaeos, the din and elatter of rivet- ting boilers were »11 set in motion to astonish the natives of this our far-off isle. Next we were all thought of sufficieut importanee to be photographed, aud after that we have a faint reeolleetion of some excellent ehampagne at the hospitable hands of the Direetors of the London and North Western Railway Compa- ny’s Works ; and now alas we liear that these poor toilers are short of a Church, and want help from ?Ja- dagasear, an island with only a few years of Obristi- anity on its head, and that due to the efforts of three great English Mission Soeieties.

The Reetor of Bother-me,—or whatever the plaee is ealled—wi!l be interested to he&r that we also have a Church of England Oathedral ìd want of funds for eompletion in Antananarivo, and should be glad if the inhabitants of Crewe could help us also. Bishop Kestell-Cornish would donbtlesa aeeept about 100 feet of niee Iron raiiings for the stone parapet he is just eompleting. An Altar Rail and Brass Leetern also might he thrown in, and Mr, Skeene ean be assured that Crewe “would be helpiag a work which ete.” (see letter). And inoreover to quote Mr. Skeene’s argnments, “these“things which are purely trifles in Crewe would be of great value to us” in Antananarivo, and he need not tfonble to príee them even, for we Would take them jnst as thev eome. However we will show owr sympathy in the eanso by sending five eopies of to-day’s issue to the Reeior of Bother-me, for his 1889 Bazaar. As he desires that artieles shoiild be prieed we mention that this valiiable journa! is worth 6d., but to make it worth Sd., to the frequenters of the eoming Bazaar, we will relate a very ridiculous ineident, perfeetly authentie, which oeeiirred in our offiee and which always assoeiates itseif with our reeolleetion of Crewe ; it is this ; “When visiting the Iron YVorks at Crewe in 1883 we were partienlarìy interosted

the room devoted to the eolleetion of steel shavings, and we purloined a quantity of speeimens, most of which found their way to Antananarivo. A long eoil was one day lying in the eorner of

Indeed your heíp would be inváluable, for I fee! that things from Madágaaear woiihl seil off as soon as thev were seen. It would be an additional assistanee if you woiild kindly priee the artieies at what you should think they shonld shoiild sell for.

I wish I could plead the cause more worthily, but I am trusting to your kindness of heart to "make allovvanee in my shorteomings in this.

I ean only say you would be helping a work which ha8 been earried on with niany tears and prayers^ aud which I ain thankful to be ahle to àdd has becu hitherto singnlarly blessed by God.

If religion is to be a reality at all, sureíy it is not suoh nonsense as this whieh shonld be sung in ehoirs and eongre- gations. A newBpàper artiele is not the plaee for Iengtbý quotations, or plenty of other instanees might be given «’hcre eommon sense appears to have been laid on the shelf. Thereí is a fainons Lenten hymn, derived from Greek sources, wheroin “The troops of Midian prowl and prowl aromid,’’ which wofnl!y needs the prnning knife. Ánothér popnlar favourite, set to two beantlfal tones, is spoilt by a single line alluding to ‘‘laden sonls by thonsands meekly stealing,” which jars upotf the ear as being the obvions result of a diffienlty to find a rhyme for the word “pealing” on the part of the poet. If some authority would foree attention to t.ho diserepaneies of “Hymns Aneiont and Modorn” before it is too late, a nationaí hymn book such as any eonntrv might be prond to own could easily be arranged. A large eommittee of all shades of opinion shonld be organised and made to feel that the matter is one of paramount impertanee. The strong inflnenee of hymnà weóded to real mnsie is too proverbial to need more thau á- passing allnsion. Those who are working ín the blaok. depths of eity slums could bear tonohing teatimouy to their power, and the nse of hymns made by some of onr greatest imagi- native writers in world-famous seenes shows the inherent belief in their importanee. A final suggestion is that there shonld be less speeialising and more generalisation of the hymns seleeted. IJnder the present system not more than a- hnndred and forty are dedioated to ordinary use, and some oonseientions elergy limit their seleetion to these between the great festivals and weary tbe eongregation with monotonons iteration. It would be wise to endeavour to make religion a eheerfnl matter—and a matter of eommon sonse. Praise is of all our duties the one most offen negleeted, and Unele Tom’s reeommendation to “tink ob yer meroies” raay be urged aa a counterfoil to the ugly spirit of peseimism, for ever walking in darkness aud seeking whom it may devonn

Ary tany feno ny mahafinarilra sy ny inahasoa, dia trano ínaro mijoalajoala, saha sasany maha-te-hizaha, sy ala, sy renirano, ary vorona ete. ete.

He ! ry nosin-drazanay,Ry fonenana mamirri-po,Ny saiko aman-kevitro

Voninahitrao.Tany soa, ry tany soa Tsy foiko sady tiako,

Ilaseho izaó’Zay tena liery hitia anao.

Isika Malagasy àry, dia tokony hisaotra an’ An- driamanitra sy ho tia Azy bebe kokoa noho ny fireiiena haia, satria efa noineny tany tsaratsara kokoa nóho ireny. Ary tokony hatoký tsara an’ Au- driamanitra koa, fa Izy . Izay efa namponina antsi-

tsika, ka hisy miaramila ho azo nantenaina hanampy ì volkeno na borohorontany mampidi-doza syny izv ; nefa ka hanahoana moa fa riy Government antsika hanohitra ny Hova, kanefa tsy misy izany,

ka dia tsy maintsy hiharitra ny mangidy loza avy amy ny- t.sy fahalalanareo sy ny tsy fahaizanareo mihitsy izay niafina tamy ny masonareo hianareo, sady tsy hainareo int.sony ny hanao izany izao na ahoana na : ahoana.

Nisy filazana hoe : “ Noho ny tsy fahatontosan’. tiy raharaba tany Tonkina, dia naongána J. Ferry : Minis'ry Farantsay, ary amin’ izany koa satria tsy I mahasehaka ny raharaha any Madagaskara, dia haon- gana koa Freyeinet Ministry Farantsay.” Koa nony : nahare izany io Freyeinetry io, dia naka sakaiza mangingina izy ka nasainy nilazaíaza io sakaizany : fa lavorary dia lavorary nv raharaha any Antana- í larivo, sady navoakany amy nv gazety izanv tsaho, laingabe izany no nambarany omby env omby eny' tamin’ izao vahoaka rehetra izao, ka tsv mba no-1 heveriný akory fa ny fanelezany izany lainga tsy I toko tsv forohana izany, dia hahas mba ny Resident ' Generalintsika any Antananarivo, ary hampiongana I azy Prime Minister hosolon’ ny fanandratana izany) lainga-he izany.

Tsy. misy Telegrafy hatrany Mojanga ka hatrany Antananarivo, nefa izany no serenana akaiky indrindra amy ny renivohitra ; tsy misy telegrafy koa avy any Mojanga mànkany Zanzibara. Ary nv elanelan’ An-

Faranísav izay osa, sady matahotra nv Englisy mandrakariva, ka tsy sahy manao izay hampahaso- sotra ny Englisy, dia tsy nety nanome inalalaka azy, fa izy—Goiìhot indray no rinv tany Frantsn ka naongany aza.

Árv angamba ny olona sasany hihevitra fa ny Sakalava "amin’ izao andro izao, dia ho tsy tia ady sy tsy ho sahy. ary tsy tia tanin-drazana tahaka ny tamy nv androri-dRamitra Raha misy oìona mihevitra toy izariy, dia tena diso mihitsy.

Nv Sakalava izay nifoko nikamban-kevitra ka notarihiny Komandà Pennequin tany Amhodimadiro tamv ny'ady tamy ny Hova .ilay vao teo, dia tsy iatsaka noho ny herim-pon’ ny tena miaramila Fa- rantsay mihilsy ny hasahiany sy ny herim-pony, fa olona sahy sy rnahéry an-ady tokoa izy. Ary izanv dia iriiseho tamy nv ady izay niadiaria tamy iiY íhhavalo Hova teo, ka mhola ho toy izany hianv na oviana na.oviana.

Àiy' koa ny Governora Farantsay tao Voliimaro—Ilr.irana dia Taly loatra tokóa tamy ny. nanampian’ ri'y Sakaiava azy tamy ny adintsika Farantsay tamy ny Hova izay nikatroka tao Amboanio.

Ar-y izany ady indroa samihafa izariy, dia vavo- lombelonf. amy ny hasahian’ ny Sakalava sy nv Antakaraná’ sy ny herim-pony an-adv izay mboia misy tsara mandraka ny ankehitriny.

Ary mba hahalalana tsara ny fomb n’ riy olana sy •ny fiteniriy sy ny láíari-isairiý, dia tsy mainisy iana- iána tsara uy fombany sy ny fiteniny ialoha sy ny ankehitririy, dia miara-monina amiriy eía, ka ma- mnritapantatra ny toetoe-piainany sy manontaninta-

‘ r>y azy amin’ izaó zavatra- Lsy anononana rehetra ízao. í

Ary koa ny Sakalava sy ny Ant-akarana d:a efa notsaraiu’ ny manaín-pnhe ana tamy ny hadisoana avy amy ny fitsarana sy ný ifarialinana Kbmisiona izay navoaka tamy ny vàrioáka. Izany dia natao noho ny tsy fahalalana sy uy filazau-daiuga tsy marina foana izay efa nanatontosana ny fitsarana. Ary anefa raha toa mba fantat a mazav.i fa tsy marina izany dia ho tsy nataon’ izany heviny izany, dia tsy ositnba toyizay.'

Izany tokoa, fa ny Sakalava sy nv Antakarana dia azo atao miaramila mahatoky tsara, ka mankato ny lehibený, raha toa mahalala tsara ny fombany sy izay tokony hainpahatoky azy ; arv koa raha mahaìa- la tsara ny zavatra tiany sy ny fankahalany ny Hova ízay fahavalony ; ary mainka fa raha mahalala tsara ny toetra izay tokony hítokiany iudriadra.

Ary anefa izany fampahatokiana izany izao dia sarotra arao mihitsy, noho ny fiovaovan’ ny zavatra mandrakariva ; fa ny Government Farantsay dia mpivadibadika mihitsy amy ny politika, fa anio ovan’ ny manamboninahitra ny |mponina moniná, ampítso indray miova hafa. Koa dia tsy misy fifampahato- kiana intsony na aminy Madagaskara na aminy Frantsa.

Ny fiovaovan’ ny politikan’ ny Frantsav any Ma- d'agaskara dia tonga tsy azo itokiana mihitsy, ary izany tsy fahatokiana izany dia tsy azony esorina aminy intsony, satria ny tompon-tany dia efa nanapa- ka ny heviny mha tsy hitoky uy Farantsay intsony na amiu’ inona na atnin’ inona. Ary fantany mazava tsara tokoa fa na dia izahay samv Farantsay aza dia tsy mifampahatoky noho ny tsy fìíampahalalana hevitra.

Ny fivadibadihanay sy ny fìovaovanay Farantsay dia tsv mampahatoky auay mihitsy, koa noho izanydia tsy sahy manoiotra ny tenany mba hotapahinay ny soa nataony ua dia kely aza. Ea ma.etika ìaha

fahefanananave-

ìritsony izy, na dia miteny marina aminy aza izahaý, Alatsany am-po mandrakariva ny fivadibadihanay isan’ andro isan’ andro. Ary izany tokoa fa tsy mba lainga no nahatonga hahafaka ny fahatokiana amy ny heviny, ka nahatonga ny fahasimbana loza nony nisy fanadinarta—Komisiona tamin’ ilay ady teo.

FAMORIAM-BOLA NATAON’ NY

FIANGONANA ANALAKELY.

Araka ny fantaira mazava amin’ izao androkeliitrinv izao dia efa madiva ho tapitra misy Fian-

. gonana izay miondana sy miray amy ny Fiangonan’ Andriamanitra, ka raanao any Kraisty ho fanorenana sv andry ho heriny noho ny alaiany izao tontolo izno ankehitriiíy. Ary na dia efa saika tapitra misy -Kristiana avokoa aza ny tany rehetra, dia inbola bangatahina sy ho t'sarovan’ ny olona mandrakizay n-y teniny Jesosy Kraisty nataony fivava-haìia harahin* ny mpanompony hivavahana arnin’ J po io dia tsy raba natao amin’izav hifampimonotnoAndrramanitra, dia ilaý teny irina ho tontosa hoe “Haìidr<r$!), Ifotonga atiìe nt/ fanjak.anao.''1 Arv ny tonon-kiran’ ny mpanomponv izay niíory ny fanjakany tamy ny lavitra manao hoe : “Enga ka ho avy ny andro tnalaza, ka tsy hisy oiona tsy iialialaia any JesoSy, fa ho henika ny fahalalana ìiy ‘Andriamanítra Telo nefa Iray’ ny tanv rehetra.”

Ary saíria “ny teniko i’zay raìvoaka aray ny va- vako hoy Andriamanitra dia tsy hiverina amiko foima fa tsy maintsy hanambina sy hahasoa izay nampan- dehanako azy.” Ka dia fantatra izao fa nv ankabiazan’ ny Fiangonana maro izay mandroáo tsara ka nianana ny anaraná hoe “Velona” dia samy miezaka manao izay handrosoatiy tsár&tsara sy bebe kokoa, ary tsy ny tenany hiany no tiany handroso fa izao oiombelona rehetra miaina amin’ izao tontolo izao koa: ka izy rehetra dia samy miara-mahaìala mazava avokoa fa ny fampieiezana sy ny fampandrosoana ny fan jakan’ Andriamanitra dia tsy vita ua efa ainv ny fivavaha- na na ny fangatakana forsiny hiany, fa tsy maintsy raisy vola ho enti-mampandroso azy, satria ny fanaovan-javaíra ety ambonin’ ny tany dìa tsy vita tsara raha tsy misy vola hanatomombanana azy. Koa ,

' aniin’ izany raha misy zavatra hatao amy ny raha- j rahan’ Andriamanitra, dia fanaon’ ny Fiangonana

irehetra ny mamory sy ny mfenangona vola hanao- 'vana azy. Any an-dafy—any London, hono, raha misy raharaham-piangonana hamoriam-boia dia misy raahavory vola c25,000, hono, ny Fiangonana anankiray amy ny indray aiidro.

Àry taray ny Alahady, 13 Janoary teo, dia noia- •zaina ny raharaham-piangonana momba an’ Ànala- kely izay nabatonga ny hevitra fa mety raha ma- raory voia, dia izao Raha niangona teto ny Fian- gonana Latramy ny mpivavaka tratra antitra dia niaraha-nijery ny fiteten’ ny trano fiangonantsika, sady hita koa fa toa tsy nateza intsony, fa raha sendra mandrivotra maherihery ny andro, dia toa saika mipararetra avokoa ny trano rehetra ; ary na dia isika aza no sendra miangona amin’ izay andro misy •toy izany diaangamba tsy ho tafatóètra fa tsy maintsy ter-yLivoaka ndrao dia hianjerany ato ka indray ringana tahaka ny vahoaka Filistina izay niangona tainy ny tranovato teinpolin’ ny sampiny, ka naka any Sami- 3ona izay efa nopotsirinv ny masony mba hataony fihomehezana amim-panesoana, ka nangatahany Sa- raisona hery indray maka monja tamin’ Andriaroa- nitra ízay mijery ny esoin’ ny oiona ka mamonjy, raha hiainany ny andry vato anankiray manohaua py trano hianjerany amin’ izy sy ireo fahavalony ireo, ka indray andro monja dia lany ritra ny Fiiistina iray lena. Ary reko koa na dia kely aza aho fa tany Ambohipotsy izay fotsy noho ny taolan’ olona no- vonoina nihahaka eran’ ny tanety ka naha-Ambo- hipotsy azy no namonoana ny Kristiana izay tsy Hety nandà any Kraisty Tompony tamy ny fanen- jeliana ; tao Ampamarinana no namarinana ny rapivavaka izay nanaraka ny hafatry ny Tompo hatramy uy fahafatesana, izay Ambonin’ Ampama- nnana ankehitriny ; tauy Faravohitra no nandorana ^y oiona izay tsy nety ningososady tsy nanaratsy ny Batisa, ka natao tsinontsinona izy ka dia nodorana

tany amin’ izay tany tsy misy olona mitoetra fa fonenan’ ny amboadia masiaka ; teo Antsampanima- hazo—•Arnbatonakanga no nanamelohana ny mpanompony Jehovah izay tsy nety nanao andriamani-kafa sady tsy nety niankohoka na nivavaka taminy ; ary teto Analakely kosa no nakaua am-bavany sy nanadinana ny olon’ Andriamanitra izay tsy nety nandao ny Torapony na dia nandao Azy aza ny olona rebetra. Ka Arabohipotsy, Ambonin’ Am- pamarinana, sy Faravohitra, ary Antsampanimahazo, dia efa vita trano vato avokoa noho ny fitiavan’ ny Kristiana Vazaha any an-dafy an’ Andriama- nitra, ka nanorne vola be izy hanaovana azy, fa ny Analakely kosa dia tsy mba vita, fa izy Fiangonana eo hiany no niantoka tianao ity trano izay efa tsy mahatoky ankehitriny ity; ary koa teo ny Fiangonaiia dia nikasa hanao dabilio mba hitovy amy ny tìangonana maro sady mba hara- piadanadana moramora kokoa ny arny ny fipetrahana Koa ahoana arv nj hevitsika ry havako ? Ary dia nanontaniana koa ny Vazaba misionary mitondra nv raharaha amin’ Analakely, ka diaky fototry ny teninv : “Aza manantena ny harapia na hianareo, fa hianareo hiany no tokony hizakany raharaha, sat.ria fiangonanareo Malagasy mihitsv ' antoka na ho very foana, sahala amy ny menaka aho no hatao.” Ka nony nahare izany teny toa fanda-. so-bato, fa ny ranomangatsiaka an-kapoaka aza tsy vana nefa mampahaleo-tena izany ny f iangonana día hovery anjara, ka mainka fa ny mihary “harena hote- feno hatezerana amim-pitiavana ny fon’ uy oìona, | hirizina any an-danitra izay tsy azon’ny fositra, na ka hila tsy ho azo notsindriana fa nisarongatra ny harafesina simbana, na azon’ ny mpanamitratio na sahala, amy ny alon-dranomasina nameìy ny sambo : ny tontakeiy taminá sy angalarina.”

• nandosirany Jona. “Tsy maninona” hoy izy “na j Taroy ny 3^ ny lehiiahy androtr’ io vao nirava fa dia tsy hanampy (sanatrian’ ny vava) aza ny Vaza- t.sy nody nisakafo akory. Ny trauo dia hatao birikyha, fa zakainay izay hahavita ity fiangonana it.y “Fa aiza izay mha trano nataonareo ho any uy anarako” hoy Jehovah ?

Dia rafitra nikatroka tamin’ izay ka nanao poa- hary iahy tao am-piangonana, ka miova fa tsy ilay Zomá iny ; avy iray ka izao no anav mivady e ' mamely indray ny ary ka izao no ahv e ' asian’ ny hafa indray atsy ka anona no anay tompokoiaby e ! Maha- gaga tokoa ny fipoapoakan’ny fanononan’ny olona! “Ny voan’ ny hazo tio ahafantarana azy, fa ny voara tsy mety ho voan’ ny songosongo, ary ny tsiio tsy mety hamoa voaíoboka,” “ka tsv misy mahalàla izay ao am-pon’ oiona fa iZay mivoaka amy uy vava dia avy ao am-po.” Ary koa io famoriam-bola an-tsitra

nonana na hifanomezan-tsiny, fa natao “zara arnalona ka ny lava anapahana ny fohy tovonatia,” “mitovia vody fa hisaka.” Ny manamanana dia mandoa behe, ny antonontonony dia mandoa antonony, nyambanim- hany dia maudoa ambaiiv—ara-toetr’ olona no nanaovana azy, satria ny entan-jarai-mora zaka, ny hanin- jarai-nmra lany,” ka na dia be aza ny vola hovorina fa be sady mavesatra ny raharaha hatao, dia maivana ainin’ izay manao tèny ierana an-tsitra-po, fa “Aza raihary harena hoana eo aty an-tany, izay harena mora ianin’ ny fositra hanina, sy rnora tamin’ ny mpi- hady vodi-rindrina hangalarina, fa miharia harena ho- anareo any an-danitra, izay tsy azon’ ny fositra hanina sy tsy azon’ ny mpangalatra tainin-trano sy angaia- rina.”

Nony efa semy i i'azaia: a izay mahamety ny amo- riam-bola hanaovana ny tranon’ Andriaraauítra, dia natao araka ny fiinao tsara, ka ny zókiny no mialoha, dia misesy hat any. Dia notarihin’izy telo lahy ray aman-dreny—Rainikoío 14 vtra. 03. D. P. Raini-

í marosandy, 14 vtra. 03 D. P. Rainitavy, 13 vtra. D. P. M., izy telo lahy dia nilaza fa ny $.100 (ariary zato) dia azy ; Jia neken’ ny be sy ny maro aloha ny azy telo lahy. Dia niteny tamy uy hafanam~po feno fitiavana indray Rainizafimanga, 10 vtra. D. P. M. hoe : 15 iahy zokinjokiny kosa izahay toinpokolahy dia mba handoa $.100, (ariary zato), dia tsy navelan’ ny maro fa kely raha 15 lahy aroiny ao handoa $.100. (ariary zato). Arv dia tsy naharitra Ratsimaroauga satria “natao voankazo an’ ala ny hevitra,” ka hoy izy : “Ny 15 lahy amin-dRainizafimanga raha araka ny hevitro toinpokolaiiy dia aoka handoa $.300, (te- lonjato) fa tsy vita ny trano raha tsy izany.” Dia novalian-dRainizafìmanga, notantarainy fa “fahiny fa- havelony Rainimamonjisoa sy Rasoamanambola, ary ireny narnany, dia nizarazara kelv ny Fiangouana, ka Rainiinamonjisoa no nitarika lohany iray, Rainisoa- manamboía nitarika ny iohany irav, Rainikoto nitarika ny iohauy iray, Rainímarosandy nitarika ny lohany iray, Ranona koa nitarika lohany iray, ary izahay tamin’ izany dia mboia isan’ ny ankizilahy madinika, ary nefa izao tonga amy ny ohatra. Maty ray solon-drainy, maty zoky soion-joky, fandrotrarana antanan’ oio ka mandimby rainy tsy satry. Izany no toetra toto taloha fa mbola tsy nahatadidy hianareo, ary izao dia isika z'anaka no tsy maintsy hisolo sy hitondra ny raharaha mitranga izao, ka na'dia nataonay aza fa ho mety raha $.100, (ariàry zato) no an’ ny 15 lahy amiko, dia aoka áry ho $.150, (dimam-polo am- hy zato) no an’ uy 15 lahy amiko.” Dia nekena koa nv azy ; izao no sasantsasany maha-15 iahy azy :— Rainizafìmanga, Rainirangotra, Rainizatínoro Ralai- ary, Rainibetafika, Rainikotomanga, Ndriamatoa Ra- koto Anjoma, Andriamatoa Andrianjafy, Rainitandra Ámbondrona, Razakamanantsoa, ary iiay Ingaiiy izay koa natao hoe : a.5 no azv, kanjo ka tsv nety izy fa hoy izv : “Ny ahy tompokoiahy dia karama kely tsi- mponina iny uo ahazoam-bola, nefa na dia izany aza, tsy Iio an’ olona tsinona no hanaovana fa tranon’ Án- driamanitra ity hatao, ka zaranay aza fa mba hisy ho- tafiditra ainy ny tranon’ Andriamanitra ny karama kelinay, ka dia ataoko «.10 koa ny auay tompoko-

Iahv”. Nony tapaka ny an’izy 15 laiiy, dia namelý indray nv tovolahy tsorak’ Andriana izaý efa nianatra ny Soratra Masina, izay níitarika azý ho hen iry jy ho tia an’ Andriarnanitra fony vao zaza, ka tsy Liia- lany intsony rehefa antitra izy. Ry Ratsimamanga, Rajaofera, Ranaivo, Raadriarniliaso, Atidriantsaheno, Ramahandry dokotera, Rainiarisona, maromaro izy no a.5 avy. Ary ny and-Rainibao rnpitandrina, mivady sy ny zanany madinika dia a.25. Ary ny vola voavory tarain’io Alaka ly io dia $.S8l. Ny oiotia mbola tsy nilaza ny haloany dia rahola betsaka. Ary raha ny efa nandoa aza dia Lritatro mihiísy, fa raha ny amin’ izy telo lahy ray amin-dreny tari-dáiana ny Fiangonana, dia ataoko fa mb da kely raha «.33 s.2 e.6 avy no haloany, raha latsaka noho ny a.50 avy ny farany ambany ny azv telo lahy dia ataoko t’a tsv ho vita, (sanatriavina anefa izany) ny fiangonana. Ary amin’ ireo izy 15 lahy zokinj >kiuy izay dimbiny sy fanovan’ny ray aman-.l’eny efa iasa, ary solon’ ny zandry zanaka mbola kj'y, dia fantatro marina mi- hit.sv fa misy hiany roa na teio ete., ainin’izy ireo no

izao no sai-j mbola tokoiiy haudoa imlroa heny—«.20 inahery noiio ny efa nekeiiy homènaaza, satria ny an-drano rapihary ny ala-trano mpanarangarana. Sady tsy hahafaty

tanimanga ny ivelany.Izany ry havako no raharaham-piangonana naroso

tao Analakeiy, ka raha misy hianareo ta-hanome an-tsitrapo fa “hanao t.rano iehibe tsara ralirra ho an’ Andriamanitra aho” hoy Davidra, dia atero araka izay efa niuiavan’ ny fonareo, fa “ny trano dia tsy ho anolona fa ho an-Andriamauitra.”

Ary koa ny amin-dry zareo misionary, dia inoako fa tsv maintsy hanao be noho ny Malagasy aza izy, satria taloha nihetezana izy ka lava volo, ary indrindra fa ny fiíiavany an’ Andriamanitra hiany no nan- daozanv ny tanin-drazany sy ny fiianakaviany, ete, ka nànkanesany aty Madagaskara hampiseho sy hanao marika harahin’ ny Gasy, ka izay v'da foana ve no hisarahany amy ny Fiangonana e ! Sanatria aminy izany ; fa ey iriny indrindra dia ny mba haha- fiangonana mahaleo-tena ny G-asy, ka rehefa mahaleo-tena dia mahafalv azy Yazaha ray aman-dreny tahaka ny hafalian’ ny ray aman-dreny raha mahita ny fahaleovan-tenan’ ny zanany amy uy tokan-trano, ka dia omeny Sy aterany izay mahampy azy tsara amy ny itokanany trano.

Ary raha uy toetry ny Fiangonana ao Analakeiy no heverina, dia fantatry ny Fiarigonana rehetra eto Madagaskara fa tsy toetrany vao ananany na vao izao izy no mahavory voia toy izany, fa hatramy ny naha-Fiangoaana azy dia tsy latsaka noho ny Fian- gonana eto Madagaskara izy ; tsy latsaka tokoa, fa azo lazaina fa saiky raihoatra azy ,rehetra tokoa aza. Ary novinaniko tamv ny eritreritro diso fa raha vao tsy mpitandrina teo Analakely intsony Mr. Pearse dia nataoko tokoa fa hihena ny herim-po sy uy faha- fanam-po ananán’ ny Fiangonana rioho ny fahazarany taminy Mr. Pearse, nefa eriireritra diso hoy aho fa ny anaalona no iany fa ny fe nanoharana mboìa eto hiany, fa Vazaha no lasa; ary Vazaha indray no nandi- mby, ka samy Vazaha hisy valaka! Koanefa tsy dia noho ny hoe manan-karen’ olona uy Fiangonana Analakeiy ka mahery maadoa vola, tsy izany tokoa, fa ny fahalaiany sy ny fananany finoaaa izay m.i- uana asa velona dia “miezaka- izy hatratrarany ny inarika ny fiantsoan’ Andriamanitra izay efa uape- traka teo anoloany” mba ho isan’ uy mpanompo mi- hatoky izy.

Raha tsy diso aho dia toa «5 50 no naloany Mr. Pearse fony uanao iiay fi ingonana taloha.

Ary tamin’ izany fe.njnnnaa’ uy olona tsirairay avy izany, dia hila tsy ho re akory ny feon’ ny sasany noho ny hamaroao’ ny feo samy miiaza ny azy, ka dia nisy lakolosy kely nataony ny Mpitá’i- drina fampangiiiana. Raha ny íiafanam-pon’ ny Mpi- tandrina tamin’ io fanJoavam-boia io dia fatratra ioa- tra, uy vahiny mba sen ìra nahita tao aza tamin’ izay dia nieky sy nilaza marìna mihitsy fa ralia Rai- nibao dia tena lehilahy rnafapa fo tokoa, ka mahata- rika ny hafarn-po ananan’ Analakely rahateo. Ary izaho koa mahalala fa tena tsy diso mihitsy uy fiia- zan’ io vahiny io azy ; fa hita mazava fa na dia ao anatin’ ny basy aza ny vanja sy ny bala ary ny kapi- sity raha tsy rnafy sy tsara ny fem-basy na ilay fan- jaitra kely tnanindrona ny kapisily sy mikapoka azy dia tsy mety hiteraka afo hampirehitra sy hampi- poaka ny vanja handehanan’ ny fbalam-basy tsv ak-jry. Izany hiany no filazana azoko ilazana ny Mpitan- drina ao Analakely, fa mitoetia jfotsiny sady tsy mahasitrana akory uy ranon’ ny farihy Betisaida raha tsy tonga ao uy anjely hanetsika azy, ka mahasitrana ny raarary mitsoboka ao ny fihetsiiiy. Tairiny sy hendratin’ ny hafanam-pon-dRainibao mpitandrina ny fon’ ny tia Toinpo ta-hahato ny hafany, ka rnanao izay handrosoan’ uy raharaiia napeírany hatao ety an-tany fivaniniana.

“Fa izaho na dia ny kelv indrindra amy ny Aposi- toly aza” hoy Paoly Apositoly, “dia izaho no ataoko fa nahavita be noho izy rehetra aza.” “Ka ataoko ho faty antoka avokoa ny zavatra rehetra raha toa aho mahavita ny nanendren’ ny Tompoko ahy.”

Ary noho ny famelaii’ ny Editora ny mba hilaísahan’ ity resako ity kely amy ny gazetiny, dia faiy aho ka misáotra azy iiidrindra, satria inoako fa hahafaly anareo havako mparaaky ny mahare izany zavatra vaovao tsara izany.

Ny filazana marina indrindra ny aníony sy ny fo- tony ary vìtany ato rahateo izay niseho tao dia au- jaran’ ny Mpiíandrina ny manaó izany. Ary §ny ahy kosa dia tìlazana mabatery ahy ka tsy azoko ajanòna na dia ela vitan’ ny Mpitandrina mazava tsara aza ny dinidinika rehetra ; tery aho hilaza fa ny soa m ìha-te-hilaza, arý ny tsara fnaha-te-hidoka. Ary kea tsv dia nanaraka ny filazana reko sy ny fisehoan’ ny zavatra nitranga tsirairay mihitsy ahò, tsy mba dia ny tena niseho tao mihìtsy no voáiàzako, fa izay hevitro fantatro ho mifanaraka sy mahatsara ny hiíazako io raharaham-pahasoavana io no noken- dreko mihitsy. Fa ny “tantanam-by, ny tsofa vy, ny riandriam-bv, ary ny tandra vy, ka uy havana mpanajary havàna.” (Stjb-Ed.)

Ary misy ny sasany mauao hoe : Lazaiko ma- .ina tokoa fa na hoatrinona na hoatrinona.no ataon’ ny fiangonana ho anjarako dia hanaiky tokoa aho. Tsy tambo i\o lazaina ny fiteny tsara neìitin’ ny olona nandoa vola ìtìo.

Tamy ny 11 famantaranandro no niantomboka nanonona ka amy uy2 fámantaranandro mahery 4mini-tra angaha dia vita----- ka dia. hadim-pamantaranan-dro teío mahery 4 minitra angaha no lany teo, ka $.881 no tontalin’ ny vola voatonona. Ny manoratra no ela fa ny anononany azy dia vetivety foana.

Ny toetry ny fiangonnna tao dia mahagaga. Ny masony manganohano hoatry ny misy verinesy ary ny endriny maranitra efa izay tsy izy, ary ny faha- vorian’ ny olona dia sesehena.

the show

sive maimer, to lie the trnth.To eritieally examine an inseription of this kind,

the íirst thing we natnraily do is uot to rest satisfied with reading it in print, but to make, as nearly as we ean, a faesimile of it iu seript, thus :—

those nationalities is ad verse to tiiis elass of erimi.On the eontrary, in Franee, the mnrdering of

prostitutes has long been praeíised, and ha» beed-eonsidered lo be almost pecu!iarly a Freneh erime.

Again, the granimatieai eonsti uetion of the senteiieé nnder esamination is distinetly Freneh in lwo points —First, in the donbié' negative eontained ; and, seeondly, in the employment of the detìnite artielo bèfore the seeoiid nouii. An Engltshinan or an Ameriean would kave said, “ The Jews are nié i who, &■■.” But t.he mnrderer foilovved his nalive idiom “Les Jnifs sont o.'.s homra -s” in his thoiights, and whén putting it into English rendered des hommes líthe raen.’'’

Àgain, neither Btdgians nor Swiss énfertain any ániiposity to the Jev,-s, whereàs the iiatred of tlio Freneh prolétariàn to them is notorious.

The ground for reséàreh being tkns eleared arid iiarro'tved, the noxt questioii is, what is t.he motive ? Speenlàtion has bèen rifé, théories’are niaiiy ; alinost every mau one msèts, wìi'o is. eompetent to form an opinion, faaving a difforènt ono.

! And in endèàÝòiiìdng o sift a mystery iiko tdis i one eaniiot afi’ord to íhr-.> a aside fóy thoory, howovcr i ,'.xtràvàgaut, tvithiin; eaýefn! exaraination, beeanso the trui.h roigiit, ai'tir aii, iie in :ho ìiiost nniik dy one.

There seems to be iio donbt that the mnrderer, whethor mad or not, had a distinet motive in his mníilations ; bul pn; poasible thoory. of thaf motive has never yèt boetì • suggostéd. Iu the ninettoiitii eentury, with ail its. enligktenment, it would seera absurd, wore it not thaf superstitiou dies hard, aral some of its vòtaries do undoubtodly to this day praetise nnholy rites.

Now, in one of the books by íhe great modern oeeiiltist who wrote uuder the mom de plume oE “Eliphaz Levy,” “Le Dogme et Hitnol dq la Hauto Magie,” we find the most eiaborate direetions for working magieai spells of all kinds. The seeoml voliime has a ehapter òn Noeroinaney, or blaek magie which the author justiy denonnees as a profanation. Blaek magie empioys the ageraiis ; of evi! spirits and demons, instead of the bonetìeent spirits dereetèd by the adepts of Z« haute magie. At the sarao tinie he gives the eléarest. and fnllest. details of t.lie neeessary steps for evoeation by this moans, and it ìs in iiie list of sabstanees preseribed as absolntely neeessary to success that we find the link which joíns modern Freneh neeromaney with the quest of t.he East-end mnrdorer. Ttìese snbstanees are in

! theraseives horr.ibíe, and diífieiilt to proenre. Thoy í ean onlly be obtained by means of tho most appal- iing erimés, of which mnrder and mutilation of tho

1 dèad are thp least heinons. Among them are strips snieide, nails from a munderer’sof the skin of a

galioivs, ean iies inade from, htìman fat, the head of a blaek eat whic’u has been fod fortv days on bmnan flesh, the horns of a goat which iias been rnade froni a eertain portion ot' the body of a harlot. This last point is insisted npon as easential ; and it was this extraordinary faet that first drew

I ray attention to the possible eonneetion of the innrderer with the blaek art.

Further, in the praetiee of evoeation the sa- f erifiee of human vietims was a neeessary part of the ; proeess, and tho proi'anat.ion of the eross and other ' emblems usualiy eonsidered saered was also enjoined. In this eonneetion it wiìi be well to remember one

Therefore we plaee a dot above the third up- babiy not eoinmited by the fiend of whom we speak, stroke in the word Juwes, and we iìnd it to be í we iind that tho siles of tho mttrders, six in nmn- Juives, which is the Freneh word for Jews.

Ary ny tóky nataonareo dià tsy foaria fa riy lela lava izay nataonareo tày mba nihafohy, fa hatreto Mahanoro riy lelánàreo nanome toky, ka niakatra izaný toky izariy neritinareò nanavasava riy ala maizina, niakatra riy taviràrià àiribo, ka riijadona ao Ialamasina, tònga teo ariatrehan’ Izy Tonápony sy Son Excelìence Priine Minister.

Ary raha ny toetry ny fìadanan’ ny vahoaka nò heverina, dia hianareo samy mah&hatala isam-batana ; riefá tiako holazainá atóinareo ny resaka natàon’ ny Andriambaventy lehibe iray tamiko, raba nanontany azy aho ny amy ny tòetry ny fiadanan’ ny Vahoaka, na mba miadana tokoa araka izao lazantsika Mabanoro izao na dia ravindraviny biany. Ary dia nieeny izy nanao hoe : “Milaza ammao marina tokoa aho tompokolahy, fà tsy tantely orneko anao, ary tsy siran-teny asehoko anao, fa finaritra 3y miadana lavitra izahay zana-Betsimisaraka ankéhitrinv noho ny teo aloha: efa manam-bava ny mahantra, efa manan-kiady ny kamboty sy ny mpitondrateua ; fa teo aloba izahay raha toinbohan’ òlon-trosa, fa tsy mahay taratasy sady tsy mahay baiko, ka nony vakiny amim-panjakaaa dia an-tady ; teo aloha izahay nony mba mifanjihitra amim-barotra, dia ataony tian-kano, tsy tian-kano, ka vakiny sy toriny amim-pànjakana

Ary manahoana ny fampitoviana azy atìkehitriny :—- Firin-jàto ny sekoly tato anatin’ ny fari-tany Ma- hanoro teo aloha ? Hitako fa 200 nò tao anatin’ ny Registra, ary mbola ao izany anarany izany.

P. 1[ Governora, no kasaina holazaina tsotra etoana izao Iray volana mahery talohan’ ny Krisimasiday dia somebiseby be hiany any Betsileo ka ny sasany nana. patapaka ny sora-draha ; ny sasany namotsy trano' aman’ anona ; mba ho fiomanana tunga ohatra hilra vian’ ilay andro mahazendana inv. Ny mpihirain fiaiigonana ao an-tampon-tanàna sy eny inftnodidina kósa dia nifofotra ery nividy hira, mba haseho aniy ny fotoana voaomana.

Nony tamy ny Alatsinainy 24 Desembra, raha vao tamy ny 5 famantaranandro hariva, dia itijao namira piratra amy ny fàhazavana uy fanaia taratasy lehiba maro, voahantona arny ny lavarangan’ ny lapa. Irony fauala ireny dia voasoratra mihaingo isan-karazany amy ny teny hoe: ',íZaza no terakáho antsika" ete., ete,

Nony tamy ny 8 famantaranandro hariva dia injad nanehoeho eran’ ny tanàna ny hira manako maha-tvhi- haino, mha hamonjy ilay misasakalina tahaka ireny mpiandry ondry tany Betlehema. Tsy ampy toinona dia feno olona ny rovan’ Itompokovavy ; nifanesika ny vava-làlana, ary tsepoka ny araben-dRainimora

He ! izato horikoriky ny lohasaha ! manao ahoana izany fangorohoron’ ny tendrombohitra ! Ary akory izany feo mipararetra, sady mirohondrohona hoatra ny feon’ ny ranomasina lehibe mamoaka izany tononkira mahafinaritra hoe : “Lasa sakady va ny alina ?” Fatsahan’ ny sasany kosa izany hoe : “Hosana, Hos ana, hoan' Ilay nisolovoina ny mpanota."

Nony efa tafapetraka tsara ireto mpihira maro samihafa, dia nifandimbv tsirairav ka andro maraina no nampalahelo, manoatra noho Ambanidia sy Andafi- atsimo ; ary fatratra noho Antanimena sy Manjakaray. Eny, izay Ambohitrinimanga sy Anjanahary uo asa ?

Teo andavarangana kosa ny. ankohonan’ ny Koitìan dy, nanao hira malefadefaka arahin’ ny Harmonia Mba not.y koa ny azy, fa nony injay kianao vrzari’ ny hira Gasy dìa amoahany izany hira tiona tsoftra izany. ka miova tsy ny feom-borona any anati-ala no fihai'no. azy !

Izany alina iray manontolo izany aba dia mampiset ho fìfatiam-po tanteraka tahaka ny Magy avy lavitra

Endrey koaity fìhinanam-biionaaroa an-dra no lavany dry Mompera ! Loza re ny vazaha, fa miova tsy ni- toa teo raha hanao zavatra ! Izato zaza kely eroa ain- pihinanam-bilona o ! Ireto mpiandry ondry e ! Izato’ toetry ny Magy e I Eisy lehiretsy, zendana aba ho ka tsa-mahatarona koa ! fa andeha ho ary amy ny mpibira any anati-rova aho fa sosotsa uy torimaso abo izany 1

Nony ampitso Talata, dia indreny nizotra ny vahoaka, sy ireo mpihira samy hamonjy ny fiangonany avy aloha vao indreny nanao dia-be ho any Tsianolondroa; fa eny no hanaovana ny Krismasy.

Ey ! izany vahoaka be nanetriketrina izany, na dia toa merika kely aza ny andro ! Notazanina ity ati- alany Tsianolondroa, ka mamorom-potsy, toa rakotry ny oram-panala avokoa !

Nisy hira sy famakian-teny natao vao Rev. A. S. PIuckett no nitori-teny. Rehefa vita ny tori-teny, dia nifanjofo n:hira indray ny zaua-piangonana. Aokafotsiny ry zareo ! Solò re izany ? Saikim-pasiny re izany nataon-dry Bia sy ry Savalahy izany ! raha oíona vao nanampoka dia ho Tsirahonana sy Raozety angaha no ataony fa tonga ao !

Eìa no nitoerana, ka ny andro mandroso ho hariva; ny orana mateti-pihavy ; ary ny hanoanana mandrera- ka ny aina, ka ny miakatra no azo natao. Natoko aloha ireo voankazo nampividin’ ny Governora, ka inona maro moa ny olona, ka toa vao nampihetsika ny lolo aza !

Oary zareo à ? Mbola tsy tofoky ny mandrakalina sy ny androany hiany mantsy ireto mpihira, fa mboia indrery mihaona eny an-dàlana ka nosarahina hiany !

Filazana tsotra izany ry havana fa ny lamodin-kain- go sarontsaronako lnany,—toy ny robo parasily sy volon’ ondry ; ny pataloha lopotra sy satroka panamà; nv lamba moslina sy ravintapia ; ny voahangy an- doha-tànana sy peratra ; ary kiraro verinia sy elo parasily ; ary ny rarangy sy ny findra mahalana ! Raha atao indray milaza dia azo lazaina fa tsy mbola nisý Krisimasy toy izany taty Fianarantsoa araka nv fila- zan’ uy tei aloha sy ny hita maso.

Ry M^rina ? tsy ataoko fa ho voalaza mnzava izany, raha tsy aseko etoanà ny fitondrana tsara maha- te-hisaotra ataon’ ny Govetnorà, raha izay handrosoan’ Atsimon’ Imatsiatra amy ny fahendrena sy ny fahala- ana no heverina. Ho tahin’ Andriamanitra anie izy íiahatana ny taratasy midina'sy miakatra, izay omený Her Majesty ’any His Exeelleney hotànany. Ary •iiandroso fiadanana aaie ny ambanilanitra.
