JANUARY 1884 Bethel Jubii.ee Supplement.— With this number of the Friend we furnish our readers with a supplement containing the sermon preached in the Bethel on the 50th anniversary of the dedication of the chapel, in 1833. We herewith print a beauti/ul and most appropriate jubilee hymn by Mrs. B. F. Dillingham: Great God, a hymn of jubilee With joyful hearts, we raise to Thee! Thy goodness through there circling years, To us this day supreme appears. We thank Thee that this house of prayer Has been long years Thy constant care; That praise and service offered here, Have ever found Thy listening ear. Within these walls what bitter grief Has ofttimes found a sweet relief; What lessons learned of patience, trust And hopes revived ere hearts were crushed. "i>o(um. *Z RAMBLES IN CHINANO. 1. Mr. Editor :— After writing "Finis" to that long series of "Rambles," which you were so good as to publish for many and many a month, you might have thought I should never trouble you again. Indeed it is a surprise to myself, for I felt then that my travelling days were over —but as you see, I am again "on the wing." This time I shall have nothing to say about all those historic lands which have been for centuries the glory of the Teuton and AngloSaxon, nor of those classic shores which clasp the blue Mediterranean in loving embrace, whose story is ever being told to willing ears, a magical enchanting tale, which never grows old. lam afraid that to some my new theme, China and the Chinese will not be very interesting.

Many of them I knew well—a few were Christians, a number have been at our schools, and all seemed to know me as the man who "talks about Jesus" on the Sandwich Islands. We were able to have every Sabbath a preaching service, in which a number seemed to take a most kindly interest, and man) opportunities were given of distributing a good deal of religious printed matter in the form of books and papers and pamphlets. Then we had a week-day school, conducted under difficulties, for the sea was sometimes a little uncertain. But on the whole we got on very nicely. Two very pleasant lady passengers, excellent specimens of our best American culture, training, and spirit gave me most sympathetic aid. I trust that along with the rudiments of English, these Chinese boys received many helpful hints and suggestions which may bear good fruit. A quieter, more contented lot of people it would have been hard to find. Pen up as large a number of our own nationality in the same narrow quarters and I fancy we should have had an immense amount of scolding and grumbling. I wondered constantly at their patience and happiness. For they were closely packed together and far from comfortable, at least as we should estimate comfort. And yet they seemed to get on with a few inches of sleeping room, a hard pillow and daily allowance ofrice. After all are we not spoiled by having too much? The Chinese passion for gambling manifested itself soon after we left Honolulu, and I am afraid some hard earned savings of years on our islands went into the pockets of professional sharpers. But I was glad to find that a very considerable number of Chinese had nothing to do with it, and some of the best of them heartily united witkv me in protesting against it. DEATH AT SEA. On the whole we were much favored in point of health, there being verylittle sickness on board. There were only two deaths, one that of a common laborer from Oahu, and the other from Kohala. During their last days much sympathy was manifested for them by their friends. The remains �of both were buried at sea. We hear sometimes that the Chinese are unemotional and lacking in sympathy, certainly those of us, who were with them when we committed to the deep the remains of their countrymen, were called upon to view them from another point. We first buried the man from Oahu. The officers and cabin passengers stood near by, and a little beyond was a large crowd of the Chinese, with quiet, respectful mien. I offered a prayer in English and Chinese, and the body of this Chinese laborer was launched into the bosom of the great lonely Pacific, and the grey waters closed over it forever. Sometime since I came to know a pleasant Chinaman from Kohala, but consumption had begun its fatal work upon him. I saw much of him. Most nobly did he battle with the dreadful disease. Life was precious to him. He was not averse to speaking upon religious topics, and I hope some light dawned upon his mind. Feeble though the light may have been, I would fain hope that the Master felt the touch of faith laid upon the hem of his garment and that it is well with Mochin.

About twenty years after the establishment of the Bethel efforts were made for the erection of the Sailor's Home. For a generation the two have been in active operation and co-operation. They have stood side by side, and have been mutual helps to each other, while their pecuniary support has been entirely separate. Both have been essentially aided by the constant advocacy which they have derived from the FfUEMD. The Home has been under the direction of a board of trustees, chosen from among the merchants and citizens of Honolulu, the Bethel has been under the direction of the members of the Bethel Church and the chaplain, representing the American Seamen's Friend Society, and the Fkiknij was started by the < haplain, and he alone has been, for forty years, its responsible proprietor. The wisdom of this arrangement is now more than ever manifest, for they have all three been carried along, kept free from debt and from friction. Whenever funds have been required for their support, those funds havebeen forthcoming from the foreign and seafaring community. So far as lam knowing to the facts, no complaint has ever been made, that funds thus contributed have been wasted or misapplied. The combined establishment of Bethel, Home and Friend, have been carried forward, on as prudent and economical o scale as it was possible. lam bold assert there has been no waste or misapplication of funds. During the entire existence of the Sailor's Home, the trustees have annually chosen myself as chairman of the executive committee, hence I knowhow almost every dollar has been contributed and expended. I will now remark, in reference to the Home, that almost an entire change has come over the community since its incorporation in 1854. The large whaling fleet has diminished from 200 and more ships annually, to the visits of only a very few, At present but very few seamen are discharged at Honolulu. The United States Government no longer sustains a hospital, while only a sick and disabled sailor is occasionally to be found, enjoying the excellent ar- commodations of the Queen's Hospital. Under these circumstances, the question may naturally and reasonably be asked, why, then, continue to support the Home ? I answer, if no home was built, I should not advocate raising funds to built up one, but as the Homeis built and now answers a very important purpose, hence I maintain it should be sustained. Seamen havenot ceased to visit this port, and never will. Including men-of-war's men, many hundreds resort to Honolulu annually. Seamen attached to merchant vessels and steamers are coming on shore continually Many of these men visit the Home to obtain reading matter and copies of the Bible in various languages. They resort here to write letters, and \isit the Reading Room and Depository. Here they aremet by the chaplain and his faithful colporteur, Mr. Dunscombe, whose labors among seamen and others during the last eighteen years havebeen most beneficial. Both the chap lain and his colporteur visit seamen on ship-board. Not only does the Home furnish a place of shelter for seamen sent hither sity for sustaining a good reading room in this part of the city remains tlie same now as in former years, and it ought not to be given up and I am resolved it shall not be. In no way can a small outlay be mure judiciously exl-'or $200 per annum I can pended, make the reading room most attractive and useful under Mr. Dunscomhe's superintendence. In view of our present circumstances as trustees of this institution I am going to recommend, as ihairman of the executive committee, that we take the necessary steps to raise the sum of five hundred dollars to repaint the Home and make some absolutely necessary repairs. In making this recommendation I would remark that I am going lo urge upon the friends of the Bethel that they raise an equal amount to repaint and repair that edifice. 1 think it highly proper and becoming that at least $1000 or more should be immediately raised in Honolulu by the friends and supporters of the Bethel and Home as a jubilee fund. I confidently hope that something more than that amount may be raised and the balance devoted to the support of the reading room for the coming year. lam not, in conclusion, going to offer a single remark upon the usefulness of the Bethel and Home in our island and city community. To myself it is a pleasant reflection 'hat for nearly thirty years the Home has been managed by good men and good women who have labored without salary, and depended upon a most precarious means of support. The difficulties and perplexities they havemet with are well known to myself but lam one unpublished to the world. who believes that good efforts for man's physical and spiritual good are never lost, hence the labors have not been in vain of such worthy people as Mr. and Mrs. Thrum, Captain and Mrs. Oat, Mr. and Mrs. Miller, Mrs. Whiting, Mr and Mrs. Dunscombe. Times and circumstances have changed. Our shipping interests have been revolutionized, but I hold that as long as the port remains a place of resort for the shipping ot this great ocean, this or some similar establishment should be sustained for the benefit of seamen and strangers. Samtjici. C. Damon, Chairman of Ex. Com. Honolulu, Dec. 20, 1883. by the various consuls to be boarded until they can ship or be sent to California, but the Home is a place of constant resort for laborers passing through Honolulu who are attached to plantations. Here they come to lodge and deposit their chests and trunks, and they find in Mr. Dunscombe a friend. More or less of this class of plantation laborers are constantly at the Home. During the past years plantation agents have sent whole families hither until they could be forwarded to their places of destination. Hence the Sailor's Home has become what they style in England a "Stranger's Rest." The Home is a most suitableplace for keeping on hand a general supply of Bibles and other reading matter. For these "and other reasons which I might offer, this institution should be lilierally sustained. Visiting the Home almost daily for the last twenty-five years, I can conscientiously plead lor its support, and I am willing to contribute pecuniarily and do all in my power to witness its perpetuation. The Y. M. C. A. Society for many years sustained a good reading room at the Home. With the erection of their At Oat's in Merchant street will be new and beautiful building they have found almost everything in the stationery line, and among them a.good asremoved the reading room.

The following is the programme for the Week of Prayer, January 7th to 12th, 1884: Monday, January 7th Praise and Thanksgiving. — For Ciod's special providence, Christ's marked favor, and the Holy Spirit's gracious work. Tuesday, January Bth: Humiliation and Confession. —For personal failings; for social vices, as intemperance; for the secular spirit in the Church ; for prevailing skepticism and religious indifference. Wednesday, January 9th: Prayer for Families and Instructors of Youth. —For parental fidelity in household training; for pious watch-care in schools and colleges; for spiritual influence in Christian associations of youth; and for early conversions in Sunday-schools. Thursday, January 10th: Prayer for the Church of Christ.—For a prayerful and laborious ministry; for consecration and co-operation in members ; for early devotion in educated youths ; and for the divine blessing in winning the worldly. Friday, January nth: Prayer for Nations.—For legislators, that statutes may be conformed to divine law; for rulers, that they may conscientiously administer government ; for peace and concilation between nations; and for popular integrity in the duties of citizens. Saturday, January 12 Prayer for Home and Foreign Missions. —For missionaries, that they be sustained in trials and prove efficient in labors; for heathens, Mohammedans and Israelites, that they may be won to Christ.— : : Saturday Press At the Chinese Church in Honolulu on Christmas Eve, the pupils of Miss Payson's boy's school and Miss Peirce's girl's school appeared at good advan tage. Amid many difficulties those ladies contrive to bring out the talents of the Chinese children and imbue their minds with many good ideas, as we may infer from the recitations and the songs of the little i>eople.

The building committee stated that a contract had been made for the completion of the lower room left unfinished, and that when this was paid for, the committee hoped to render their final account, paying over a small balance to the credit of the society, and receive their final discharge. A special vote of thanks was passed to all who had contributed to make the fair such a success. The finance committee were of opinion that measures should be taken to appeal for such a change of the tax law as to secure exemption from the large amount ($120) paid this year. No other committees were prepared to report. The various evening classes, that have been organized, have proved popular and successful. Mr. P. C. Jones has begun his second course of lessons in book-keeping. Judge Judd has a class of twenty studying the Hawaiian language. Mr. Furneaux has just the class it was designed to secure of those wishing a knowledge of mechanical drawing which would be a help to them in their daily work. When the new room is finished and furnished, the effort ought to be made jto open other classes for evening study. There is evidently material enough for various classes if proper teachers can be secured. The new year opens with new and untried opportunities for the development of the work of the V.M.C.A. (iod's message to His people at the opening of this year is His message to Israel of old, "Ye have compassed this mountain long enough turn you northward." We are not to be content with going round and round jhe difficulties in our way without ever overNor can routine work coming them. satisfy a soul that has Cod's infinite love for its inspiratiou, and every period of time a new call to new activities. What better can we do ? What more can we do ? These are questions we need to consider with a view to higher resolves and more persistent endeavors. Whom and how many can we hope to bring to Christ this year? What effort can we make not only to save from intemperance, vice, and shame ; but to help on a better style of life, a higher type of Christian manhood ? : HAWAIIAN ALMANAC AND ANNUAL FOR 1884. For ten years this useful publication has made its regular appearance on the first of the new year. This year it comes freighted with a choice amount of valuable statistics and memoranda. Any one who wishes to keep informed respecting our island kingdom, should not fail to procure a copy, and if inclined, if possible he should procure all the former years and have them bound. A few years hence such a volume would be worth its weight in silver, if not in gold. On page 46th will be found interesting observations by the Rev. S. E. Bishop on the " Haze from Java." We befieve he was the first to publish in this part of the world the idea that the remarkable " after glow appearance" resulted from the Java eruption. We are glad to know that he is continuing his investigations upon this subject and writing for scientific journals abroad. College Catalogues.—It is always pleasant to glance over catalogues of schools, colleges and other seminaries of learning, hence we gratefully acknowledge a catalogue of Dartmouth College from Professor Hitchcock; a catalogue of Smith College, North Hampton from Miss Gale; a catalogue of Madison University from Mrs. Diell; a a catalogue of the State University of Wisconsin from Professor Holden. � Dublin Core The Dublin Core metadata element set is common to all Omeka records, including items, files, and collections.

This is a time of searching anil sifting. The native Christians are subjected to the scoffs and jeers and insults of their heathen neighbors. On the streets they are pointed out as the "followers of Jesus," with derision and are re; arcled as false to their nation, their ancestors, tnc divinities of their native lan 1. They are told that the foreigners are to be driven away, their Christian guides and teachers to be removed, that they are to be slain and the faith they have learned to love more than life is to be stamped out in the Land of China. Much of this is idle talk and yet to the trembling little flock it seems terribly real. And, indeed, there is a reality in it, after all, and should war and confusion arise here the infant Christian church, hated by the heathen, might be called upon to witness, even to sealing its testimony with blood, to its faith in the Lord Jesus. Here in this great and pleasureloving city, with all its wealth and quaint oriental picturesqueness, I have found nothing so attractive as the little gatherings of humble Chinese Christians. Most of them are gathered from the lower classes of society. Here, as has almost always been the case, Christianity begins to work from the common people," upwards. The cultured and wealthy classes reject the religion of Jesus with scorn and contempt, as the Pharisees of old. The middle classes are absorbed in the cares ofthis world and see in the new faith only a foreignizing tendency. Here and there, mainly from the mass ot the people, and from the traveling millions, a few have been gathered, and are the firstfruits of that mighty spiritual harvest, which is yet to be brought in. In these days the Christians have been brought near to each other. Though their way is beset by peculiar and harrassing difficulties and dangers, they do not falter. I know there are people in the world who doubt that a Chinaman can become a sincere Christian. I wish they might see the Chinese Christians of Canton in these days, and I feel as if their mouths would be stopped. Here in China, Christianity has laid before it the mightiest task which it has had to grapple with since it conquered the heathenism of the Roman Empire, but it will be victorious, as it " �19 THE FRIF:ND, MARCH, 1884.

Thrum, Printer, 1884, Pp. lb. the lie/ore tion, Judge Judd has rendered a valuable service to the community in this clear and convincing statement of some of the fundamental principles of finance, and their application to the monetary condition of the islands. He shows that one great difficulty in the treatment of our financial problem is the general and deplorable ignorance of our business men in regard to the well established tacts and principles of political economy. "One class, who believe that there is something peculiar in the circumstances of these islands to take us out of the operation of the well ascertained laws of currency, and who are endeavoring t" solve the problem by reference only to the facts which are within range of their own horizons and the other class, who say that currency should not be meddled with, for no one tan understand its laws." The recent issue of the Kalaknua silver coinage, dollars, halves, and quarters, to the amount, it is said, of $1,000,000 is altogether beyond the requirements of a population of 60,000 with an export trade of only $.s.,?oo,ooo annually. The limit of issue of silver sub : sidiary coins, according to the Mum tary Convention of the latin nations ot Europe, was fixed at $1.20 per capita. That would Ix-' $X6.000 for our nun "The polyglot silver current y," whii h we have had forthe last fewyears has driven all goM coins out of Circulation. The large excess of exports over imports, the latter stated at $4,975,000 for ISX2. ma) give seeming ease in money matters but the high price ofexchange tells a different siory. We cannot pay lot our Postal Money Orders on the United States in our Ailuau silver. We might have cowry shells for the business of out own home markets ; that would be cheap money, surely. Hut when we settle our accounts with foreign dealers, we must pay in gold, the one accredited currency of the world.

In alluding to his resolve to resign the pastorate on the completion of his 70th year, Mr. Damon repeated his belief that the society needed a younger man, and that he beUevcd they could bdtet decide exactly what to do, during his absence from the country. Me had made no effort to supply the pulpit during his absence because he believed il best that the church should carry out their own wishes and pcrferenees in the mailer according to their own light and their best judgment.

It is so utterly inconsistent with itself, and so at variance with all sound financial principles, it can only be compared to the crazy patch-work quilting, which the ladies are now bus\ ing themselves with, as the latest style of "fancy-work." Judge Judd argues dearly and wisely for the limitation of silver to its use as a subsidiary coin. He would fix ten dollars as the limit ot the legal tender of silver in payment of debts.

In my last letter, I remember I expressed the regret that the present troubled state of politics, and the disturbed condition of the country, prevented my making any excursions in the out-lying districts about Cantos. Since I last wrote, however, I have had the privilege of spending some ten days in the country, and have had an excellent opportunity of seeing some phases of Chinese life and of studying the growth of Christianity among the heathen people. Nothing occurred to mar the pleasure of the trip ; and I need scarcely say that I found every moment of the time intensely interesting. I trust a few words in reference to the journey may l>e acceptable to you. In order that you may form some idea of the geographical position of the part of China where I am at present, I quote a few words from a valuable article in the Chinese Recorder, of 1880, contributed by the Rev. Mr. Noyes, of Canton City: " The province of Kwangtung is the most southerly of the eighteen provinces of China. The main portion of it lies between no and 117" east longitude, and between 21 30' and 25 30' north lattitude. Beyond these there is at the southwest corner, a projection of the main land owards the south, and also the large island of Hainan. There is also an irregular extension to the west, running through nearly two degrees of longitude. The whole area of the province is estimated at 79,456 square miles; and its imputation, by the last census, at 19,348,896; being an average of 241 to the square mile, an average about the same as that of Enland and Wales, less than that of Ireland, and a little more than that of France. Two-thirds of this area, and �THE FRIEND, APRIL 1884. 26 especially towards the inland boundary, is hilly or mountainous, which causes the population there to be less d«nse, and more crowded on the alluvial plains which lie near the sea, nowhere more crowded than on that great delta, nearly two hundred miles on either side, at the head of which sits enthroned the great city of Canton with its world wide commerce and its busy population of 1,000,000 souls. It would be difficult to find a better center than this for mission work. From the city to the sea, the wide plain is so intersected with a net-work of water courses, that there are few cities or large villages, which do not either lie upon the banks, or within easy distance ot some navigable stream. Eastward and westward through the very heart of the province, stretch the great East and West river, the head waters of the one springing near the headwaters of these rivers that find their way to the ocean on the extreme southeastern coast, while the head waters of the other are hundreds of miles away, beyond the farthest limits of the adjoining province of Kwang Sai. From the extreme northern boundary, comes the North river, gathering its waters from a hundred streams, and then cutting its way down through " mountain passes, whose beauty and wild grandeur are rarely equalled, until it joins its waters with those of the East and West rivers, and together they find their way through many winding channels to the sea." As, of late, matters have been growing somewhat quieter here, it was deemed prudent to visit some of the stations connected with the field of the American Presbyterian Mission. Rev. Mr. Noyes, from whose article I have quoted above, who has charge of the churches* lying to the southwest of Canton, took me under his charge, and we had as travelling companion Rev. Mr. Fulton, of the same mission. I was most favored in being permitted to go in the society of such genial Christian friends, and their cordial kindness and courtesy added much to the pleasure of the trip. Our course lay in a southerly and southwestern direction from Canton through the districts known, especially in California and Australia as those of the "Three Cities," (Sam Yap) and Four Cities," " 'This missionary has, I think, some eight or nine stations under his charge.

Here and there nestle in the shadows of the trees little grey Chinese villages. Our boatmen have moored us along with a number of other boats, so that we are not likely to be attacked by river pirates, who just at this time of the year are said to be very active, and against whose attacks it is well to take considerable precaution. A glorious silver moon floods river and field with its tender light. But we forget even its witchery and the fact that we are in the home of the most ancient of races, as we cozily tuck ourselves away in the huge chemise " mintois" (cotton wadded quilts, second only in warmth and magnitude to the gigantic feather beds which good Germans sleep under in the Fatherland), and fall to dreaming of even pleasanter things. From this we wake all too soon—to find the red dawn peeping in the cracks of our boat. We are in the district of Shantack, one of the great silk-growing regions of this part of China. The fields on every side look bare and brown, but under this dismal exterior lies a wealth of verdure ready to burst forth with the spring time. Every year the mulberry bushes, never allowed to become trees, are cut down nearly to the roots, and then the gnarled stumps are covered over with earth, so that they are almost hidden out of sight. In the spring the eager young shoots spring upwards, so that in summer these fields, now so brown and dreary, are covered with a mantle of green, far as the eye can reach. The leaves are fed to those marvelous little silk worms who have helped so potently to increase the wealth of this land for many ages. When our ancestors were " painted savages," these skillful workers were furnishing the materials for those dainty and costly fabrics, which, brought from this distant and mysterious land, were sold for their weight in gold to the Our boat luxury-loving Romans. passes through a village built on both sides of the river bank ; eager, curious faces look out at us as we pass. Now and then comes a cry of "Fan Ku-iu." ("Foreign Devil")—not very complimentary to be sure, but not here given, I think, in any particularly malicious spirit. Later on, we have this epithet showered down upon us in no friendly way. Coming out again into the open country we have a fine chance for a run along the shore. The tow-path is crowded with men and boys, who are busy tracking,' drawing their boats with long ropes through the canals. Groups of country people pass us, many giving us a pleasant smile and word. They all wear the inevitable cue, and dress as their forefathers did, and as their grandchildren will. They are simple-hearted, kindly folks, and compare in many respects favorably with the peasantry of some other countries which have had, perhaps, greater advantages. We come to a halt, for some hours, at a town, with the poetic name of "Golden Bamboos." We must wait here till the water rises, and gives us depth enough to run the rapids. This is a quaint old place, built along the river. Here and there a little canal with ancient bordering houses, a stone bridge, shaded by gnarled and twisted trees, remind me of certain picturesque old-time towns I know of in Holland, though this is only on the surface, for a closer examination shows a sad lack of Dutch matrons. The streets are narrow and dirty. Boys and men crowd around us. There are scarcely any women to be seen. They are kept at home by the strict rules of Chinese etiquette Their poor little maimed feet are not the best for getting around with. So perhaps they submit with better grace to the rules which keep them away from the rest of the world. We carried some books with us—"Gospel of Mark"—which no one, however, seemed inclined to buy. Here they are somewhat accustomed to seeing the missionaries, so that their curiosity is somewhat lessened. Near the village were fine groves ofbamboos and other trees, surrounding the temples where the false gods of the land are worship] >cd. Near the shore we found a withered and grey old woman burning papers and offering various sacrifices for good luck. A crowd here gathered about us and one of the missionaries had an opportunity of saying a few words about the true God, who delights in the worship of the believing heart. Another night brings us well over the rapids; and the next morning we find ourselves skimming over the broad surface of the noble West River, which after its long journey through the distant provinces of Yunnan and 27 watch its splendid flow, that the day may not be far distant when swift steamers shall furrow its waves, and penetrate into the remote regions through which it passes. It seems to speak to us of those teeming millions who dwell upon its banks, who are still bound in the fetters of heathenism. Kevanysi, with its great population, has to-day not one foreign missionary \s ithin its borders. Yunnan waits still for some voice to tell it of the Saviour and His love. Shortly after breakfast we found ourselves at the busy town of Kong Mun, a place of some 100,000 inhabitants. Here all was life and bustle. The river was full of boats, especially noticeable being the great ocean-grey junks, which find their way hither. Here in this prosperous town we found a little neat Presbyterian chapel, set up as a light amidst all the surrounding heathen darkness. The Church Mission have also a foot-hold here. We proceeded hence further into the district of Sau Ni. This is the region from which millions of palm-leaf ferns are exported to all parts of the world. On all sides were plantations of this graceful palm, presenting a most beautiful appearance. The manufacture of these useful fans appears to largely occupy the i>eople. Great attention seems to be paid to the preparation of the leaf. At some places we saw huge piles of the rough leaves in the early stages of drying. Then again we saw hundreds of the leaves laid out in long rows in the sun. These areput out every morning and taken up at evening. The rapidity with which the workmen place them in long even rows is something surprising. Then, when the drying and bleeching is completed, comes the marking out the shape and cutting and the binding or bordering with narrow t strips, a work which seems largely to occupy the women and girls, for we could see them busily at work in their poor hovels. They get a mere pittance for their work, and it is wonderful that they manage to exist at all. I shall always value a palm-leaf fan more than ever before, having seen the process of manufacture. From this centre vast numbers are sent away, and in far off New York, London and Paris the heat of summer is rendered less oppressive by reason of the labors of the fanout Kevangsi. broadens into majestic i makers in this inland district of China. proportions.

Once inside the gate, we find ourselves in a busy throng The streets, as in nearly all the towns and villages, are narrow and dirty the houses gloomy and poorly ventilated and badly lighted. You wonder that people can live at all amid such surroundings. There is a great deal of gaudy show, but no comfort. We pass gayly painted and gilded temples, and at every turn there are shrines, where at times the object Of worship set up is a hideous idol, or a shapeless stone. It is a city given over to idolatry. I"ne heart grows sad and weary with all these evidences of the moral and religious night which broods here. According to Chinese standards this seems to be a well-to-do provincial town There are busy streets of shops, filled with the wares which most delight the Chinese.

I am afraid, however, that the Chinese who return from California have more occasion to complain of the treatment the\ receive at the bands of a so-called enlightened people than an\ representatives of the Great Republic: who come here. Another day on the river brings us through the heart of an agricultural country. There are vast rice fields on either hand. As the farmers here get two crops a year, the) are kept busily at work. I am constantly reminded of the bus)' workers I have seen in the rice-swamps at Hanalei, Punahue or Waihihi on our own Islands. But with us they lack the background of the ; < Chinese landsca|je, the graceful pagodus, the carved temples, the quaintly ornamented ancentral halls which one sees here. They live in villages where their ancestors have lived before them for long generations. A sort of patriarchal rule still exists. The elders of the village exert a great influence. They are divided into powerful clans or families, who glory in their ancient �THE FRIEND, APRIL surnames. Between these clans sometimes arises the most deadly feuds and their difficulties and quarrels lead to bloody contests. In this village are wise-looking old teachers who instruct the boys in the lore of the ancients, and especially the great Confucius and initiate them into the mysteries of those marvelous characters which meet you at every turn in China, in city or country. The houses are all of brick or stone, and generally of one story. The women of the better class are rarely seen, and must find their existence oftentimes monotonous and dreary.

Our last halting place was for the Sabbath at the town of Click Horn in the district of Hoi Peng, where there is a small but flourishing, self-supporting church now started under the auspices of the Presbyterian Mission. It was indeed worth coming all this way to receive the cordial welcome of the Christians. They have a humble little chapel, just off the market place, but 1 believe the glory of the Lord's presence lighted it on that communion Sabbath. Some of the Christians came from a long distance by boat.

The business meeting will be held in the lower hall, the voting members assembling there for the election of officers, and the usual routine. After this at 7:30 p. m. in the large hall will t>e given the retiring president's address, and it was also voted to invite Rev. Mr. Wallace and Rev. Mr. Merritt to make brief addresses. The committee of arrangements were instructed to provide some light refreshment for the occasion. Letters were read in regard to a gentleman, whose name had been proposed, as one eminently creditable for the position of general secretary. It was voted that the special committee having this matter in charge be given full authority to act as they may judge lest in regard to offering any definite amount for salary, and for travelling expenses. Mrs. Hampton, who has had remarkifott success in Gos])el Meetings in the Colonies, led the services in the Fort Street Church Sunday evening, March 24. The house was well filled and a impression was made by her ntation of the gospel message. Mcd 32 " Pure religion and undefined before God and the Father is this To visit the fatherless and widows in theiraffliction, and to keep himself unspotted from the world. There is food for thought in President Andrew White's address at the reunion of his College Class of '53 at Vale College. It is a stirring appeal to young men not to be deluded by the mercantile spirit of the age, however strong and even triumphant it may seem now. He calls attention to the fact brought out in Guizot's History of Civilization that the decline and fall of the various nations of antiquity may be attributed to the predominance of some single element, a want of the checks and balances afforded by the variety to be found in our modern civilization. But consider wh t the patriotic spirit is in its present manifestations, what educational progress is, what we see in the department of the fine arts, what in religious circles, and even in the business and commercial world : and see how young men are being drawn into this whirling maelstrom of mercantilism who ought to devote their powers to higher aims in life than the accumulation of dollars. Is not the business enterprise of this country, which is lauded so highly as one of the marvels of the nineteenth century, really endangering that very material prosperity in which it prides itself. Our mercantile marine has steadily declined, our — Sacred Scripture sets before us sympathy and fellowship with the Eternal Father, the Heloved Son, the In-dwelling Spirit of Holiness, Truth and l.ove. Who of the young men of the Honolulu of to-day will devote himself to the work of making the Honolulu of the future what this lovely city might be and ought to be, if only high ideals are held up and followed out ? In connection with the effort being made by the Y. M. C. A. to establish evening schools for the benefit of young men. it is interesting to notice how prominent has become this topic of in dustrial education among those inter ested in the welfare of the young. The Oakland Board of Education propose to start four classes, two classes of boys to be instructed in the use of tools, two (lasses of girls in cooking and sewing. A wealthy gentleman of public spirit has built what he calls Trade Schools in First avenue between 67th and OSth streets N. Y. Here young men of good character and ability from 19 to 25 years of age, for $3 a month, receive three lessons a week from 7 p.m. to 9:30 P.M., in plumbing, brick laying, plastering, stone cutting, pattern making, carving and fresco painting. manufactories have killed their own Opened in 1881 with an attendance of market by the very plethora of goods 33, in 1882 there were 80 at the openthey have been able to turn out, our ing, in 1883 there were 207. business men with all their enterprise The San Francisco Y.

They subsist on the alms of the charitable, and in the settlements receive a pittance from government. They are under the superintendence of bead-men, who enforce the rules of the organization or guild. A certain amount must be paid by them before they can be admitted to the leper vilage. The laws of China are rigorous in reference to the separation of those tainted with leprosy, though there are I-or those probably isolated cases. having wealth are able to bribe the authorities, and so can remain in the pri vaey of their own homes. Outside of the East Gate of this city, there is a leper settlement, where there are said to be one thousand inmates, both male and female, and of all ages. I visited it recently and a sadder sight I never witnessed. The village consists of regular rows of brick-houses branching off to right and left of a main mad. The rooms are dilapidated and dirty and the people are huddled together in a wretched way. At the end of the principal street, is a temple with the Tablet of the Emperor, and near by are the shrines of the Goddess of Mercy and other divinities. The head men of the village were very courteous to us —and answered all our questions. There were a great many children and some of them seemed to be perfectly healthy. The Chinese have an idea that the disease disappears in the fourth generation. The boys are gathered into a school. The advent of foreigners created quite an excitement in the settlement and the poor people came crowding in from all parts to see us. One man addressed us in perfect good Eng- -try. • .

He is now on a tour of inspection of the Consulates, accompanied by Admiral Davis, and Mr. Seymour, the U. S. (!onsul of Canton. While detained here, last week. Mr. Seymour gave a most agreeable entertainment, which offered an excellent opportunity for Mr. Young, to meet all the missionaries and their families in Canton. Between forty and fifty surrounded the tables, representing the American Presbyterian Board, the English Wesleyan Society, the London Missionary Society, the American Baptist Union and (he BerlinSociety of Germany, together with ihe representatives from the Hawaiian Islands. It was a choke gathering of noble men and women, engaged in the grand missionary work. Brief addresses were made, by Mr. Young and Mr. Seymour, which were followed by short and apt replies, by American, English and (iernian and Hawaiian Missionaries. It was pleasant to be assured by Mr. Voting, that he slmuld DC ready to render all the aid in his power, to assist those engaged in the noble work of preaching the gospel, Mr. among the millions of China.

The recitations at the I'imuhou Preparatory Si hoed showed what excellent work bad been done there during the past year under Mrs. Ashfonl, and her assistants Misses Hopper, Carter, and Lewis. The recitations of the classes at Oahu College, given in die morning as samples of the ordinary class-roon'i work, were very 1 leditahlc both topupils and teachers. The specimens of draw ings in crayons showed what skill the attained under Prof. si hoi.irs had Furneaux' training. Mrs. Merrill's method of institution in English composition proved its merits by the excel knee and rapidity of the iinpromtu work done by her class. The prise speaking in connection with the historical exercises on Monday afternoon, drew out some most admirable elocutionary efforts from the nine contestants, There was such variety of style as well as sin h uniform excellence thai it was a difficult matter to award the prizes satisfactorily. Miss HestSe Dickson received the first: Miss May Atherton the second ; Miss May Dillingham the third; and Horace ('hamberlain the fourth. At the invitation of the Trustees of Oahu College. Rev. E. 0. Beckwith. 11. I)., president of the institution from 1854 to 1859, delivered an address on "Culture and Life" in Fort Street (lunch on Monday evening, June ,50th. Dr. Beckwith was hopeful of a glorious future for the Islands, and for the college. In words stirringofeloquence, and with sentiments of fervent loyalty to Jesus Christ, as the peerless eiubodi inent of a divine humanity, he urged the duty of furnishing for the children of this community the highest culture. So only could life be in its capacity and quality what be believes possible here tor a manhood that can grow heavenward without limit. 'This he advocated as obligatory upon parents and society in view of the discontent of ignorant toil, the dangers of littleness in positions of official respon sibilities, the serene satisfaction ot a well rounded and broad, cultured man hood. The address is to be published, and we hope all our readers will catch the enthusiasm and the hopefulness ol one whose love for Hawaii m*i, and for its prosperity, has only grown more intense by twenty-five years of absence. The Hawaiian Legislature is not the only one to which absurd and ridi c.ulous petitions are sent. The prison committee of the Massachusetts Legis lature has reported "inexpedient to prohibit the employment of convict labor in any branch of mechanical industry except the manufacture of textbooks for the public schools." �. .. THE FRIEND, 54 Capt 'Thomas Spencer, a well-known resident, U. S. Oomnien ial Agent at Hilo, died in the hotel in this city, Saturday, June 28. Coming to this city as the-captain of a whaler, he gave up that business, and opened a ship chandlery on Queen street. He re moved to Hilo, having purchased the store and the business which Mr. Pit man managed for many years. His natural characteristics, his bluffhearty ways, so generally considered typical of a sailor, won for him many friends: and his ardent patriotism was notorious ail over the islands. 'Though a native of Rhode Isiand, there was in his love for the "stars and stripes" a large measure of tropical fire, volcanic in its occasional outbursts.

Boswortb of Oberlin, read a paper on this topic. The distinctive characteristic of this work is that it is the direct, personal appeal which one makes to another alone, singling him out from all others. It is this which gets hold of the will, as no other does, and it is by an act of will that any one begiws a true Christian life. The preacher's words often have no effective result, because they glance off from his hearer's closely fitting armor of self conceit. Hot when after a minister's impressive presentation of gospel truth a friend asks, Are you satisfied with the life you are living ? Don't you feel you ought to he a Christian now, at once?" the words strike him between the joints of the harness ; for no cunning device of Satan, or of sinful men, can put aside God's personal claim on mechanical.

BUSINESS PROSPECTS AND POLITICAL COMPLICATIONS The low price of sugar, the high premium for exchange, the legislative measures for regulating the currency and for the enactment of a generaj banking law, have called public attention to some of the fundamental principles of finance.

S. government has of giving aid and comfort to the American commercial marine in foreign ports. After six weeks spent in cruising among the Marshall Islands, under Dr. Pease's direction, arrived again at Kusaie December 4th. The American Missionaries at Pon ape had sent word to Kusaie that they had nearly exhausted their stock of provisions, and found it difficult to food from the natives. procure Reached Ponape January Bth and stayed until January 19th landing sup plies. Then sailed for Ruk with Messrs. Sturges and Rand from Ponape and their Mortlock boys. February 2nd reached Ruk, and spent five days visiting stations. Reached Ponape on the return trip February 13th, and sailed February 15th for Kusaie to consult Dr. Pease. On the morning of February 22nd, in trying to enter the harbor at Dr. Pease's station on Kusaie, the vessel was wrecked on the reef. Up to this time the voyage had been most successful and through Captain Garland's skillful seamanship and a kind Providence, the staunch missionary vessel had escaped unharmed from frequent imminent perils. Captain Garland had already several times previously successfully entered the narrow tortuous channel. But this time there was a very heavy swell and quite a fresh breeze. After making a line fast to one of the four stationary anchors that were used to help warp in or out of the pocket in the reef which makes a basin just big enough to hold the Morning Star, and the boat had been sent to fasten another line further tip the har bor," the first line suddenly slackened, then grew taut again several times in succession. The Capain and his officers thought the anchor had pulled off �67 HE FRIEND, SEPTEMBER, 1884. the reef. They could not let go an anchor with any ho|>e of holding the vessel, for they were in 35 fathoms of water. I )ecision must be quickly made. The first line was let go and the attempt was made to head the vessel round. The Captain let the mainsail run down, and hauled up the jib, and set the lower top sail, but before before the vessel could turn, the heavy swell, (it was flood tide) threw her on to the rocks. Two seas broke over her stem; the third threw her broadside on to the reef. It was all done in less than five minutes All accounts give Captain Garland credit for great coolness and skill in managing the ship, though only nautical men could comprehend the full details Captain Garland gives of the whole affair. Francisco as it had l>een planned he should do, he was much gratified to find that the Hawaiian Board with commendable promptitude had chartered and sent forward the Jennie Walker on her mission ofrelief, carrying duplicates of the supplies ordered last year, and an extra amount of stores. Captain Garland had made a most favorable impression on this his first voyage in command of the missionary vessel, both for skillful management and for hearty interest in the missiorn work. As one of the missionaries writes, " Often a man deserves more credit for the way he demeans himself during and after a disaster than for blundering and success. Captain Garland's conduct at the time of the wreck and since, has been above criticism, and only praisesare given to him for hisgallant demeanor and Christian manliness under such trying circumstances as this disastrous termination of what had been only a successful voyage up to that moment on the morning of February 22 nd. , rather than usurping the place of other organizations, whose sphere is that of pure missionary work. consider First, let us THE RELATION OF THE GENERAL SECRETARY TO THE WORK.

Japan seems to be the terra incognita that ese to make the best of their way to land. Although when at the Loochoo, they may be far from their native shores, yet Munjiro win mi we shall now call Captain thinks that he knows enoutjh of the relative situation of the Loochoo and Japanese Islands to find his way across. He says that annually a large Japanese Junk visits the Loochoo Islands for the purpsoe of receiving tribute money, and that the junk leaves Japan in February and returns in Jane. He supposed they might get passage m her—at any rate they would make the trial ! We shall anxiously wait to learn the success of Captain Munjiro's expedition. He is a smart and intelligent young man, and has made good use of his opportunities, being able to speak and write the English language with tolerable accuracy. Should he succeed in reaching his native land in safety, his services may be of importance in opening an intercourse between his own and other countries. He would make an excellent interpreter between the Japanese and the English or Americans.. Success to Captain Munjiro, commanding the whaleboat "Adventurer." From the friend June I, iB6O. During the last nine years we have made diligent enquiry of various persons, but especially of officers of the Ferry Expedition, respecting Captain Munjiro, his companions, and the boat " Adventurer," but no information whatever could we obtain; judge then of our great surprise, on the arrival of the Japanese steamer Candimarrah, to have one of her officers, the Acting Interpreter, with the rank of Captain in the Japanese Navy, make us a call, and introduce himself as our old friend Capt- 1851.

John Kno Iptain • �76 THE FRIEND, FOREIGN visit to CORRESPONDENCE. the tomb of confucius. The Grano-Canal. July 25, 1884. Dear Doctor Damon :As you requested, I hasten to rejxm regarding my visit to the tomb of Confucius. Sister and I with ourtravellingcompanions Messrs. Bragnall and Protheroe, connected with the American Bible Society, spent the 14th of July in exploring the very interesting city of Chinfu in which is the celebrated temple of Confucius, and in visiting the tomb which is outside the walls. The temple is a fine structure, resplendent with yellow color tiles. The verandah roof is supported by 24 monolith pillars of marble, 22 feet high ; six of which along the front are very elaborately carved with spirited dragons winding about them. Minor temples are found on either side of the main building dedicated to Confucius' wife, to his father, to his mother, and to five ancestors. One large buildingcontains outline portraits of the sage on great tomb-stone-like slabs, and there are 120 smaller tablets, built into masonry, representing various scenes in Confucius' life which have been worn nearly smooth with the "rubbings" that havefor several ages certainly been taken from them. The large premises are enclosed by very substantial walls, and are heavily shaded by fir, cypress and yew trees. A well is shown from which the great teacher himself drank. Very many huge memorial-stones thickly cover the grounds erected by emperors of almost every dynastysince the sage's death. But the interest culminates around the grave of Confucius. About a mile to thenorth of the city is thewonderful cemetery of the Confucian Clan, surrounded by a massive brick wall, 25 or 30 feet high and about 14 miles in length. The whole of this great area is covered with a heavy growth of fir and cypress, as is common in the grave yards of North China. Within these grounds, 78 generations of this family are buried, extending back some 2,500 years. In all the world no such family grave yard exists, astonishing for the thousands of graves, and for the length of time their history covers. Within this great cemetery, larger than many cities, is a secondary enclosure,perhaps an acre in extent, in which Confucius, his son, and a grandson were buried under great mounds of . OCTOBER 1884. earth 18 to to 20 feet in height—none but these graves of su|>er-eminent three are found within these more sacred walls. The deep shades are very impressive. Massive figures in stone, representing animals and men, stand as sentinels along the approaches; and in front of the mound is a huge stone platform for sacrifices, and also highly finished stone censers and urns. The decaying trunk ofan ancient tree stands on Confucius' mound while other towering trees still living, strike their roots deep into its depths. A few steps to the west of Confucius' grave, the spot is marked with a tablet and a shrine, where one of the sage's disciples spent six years under a mat shed in mourning for his great master, several others mourned in like manner, but ceased this form of their mourning in three months. I need hardly say that an unsentimental one as I was much interested in the undoubted antiquity,and the simple grandeur of these memorials, of one of thegreat men of the world,and who has perhaps influenced more minds than any other who made no claims to divine honors. How sad that he should have been here deified.in a way so contrary to a!l his teachings. When the railroad is built between Shanghai and Peking, following as it no doubt will the course of the Grand Canal,---an event that may not be very distant -no place in all the world will be of more interest to the sentimetal and thoughtful traveller, than the Tomb of Confucius. Yours Faithfully, L. H. GVUCK. - AN INCIDENT OF THE WAR OF 1812 IN U. S. On our passage to China, Capt. Barstow of the "Ceylon," would oft times part in the revolutionary period as noteworthy as Barbara Freitche. The lighthouse, at the above period, was made the scene of a fife and drum victory over an English blockade in Scituate harbor. Two American vessels were coming into harbor laden with flour. As it was shallow, the man-of war was afraid to venture, and manned two boats to pursue them. They were fast gaining on them when seen by Rebecca and Abbie Bates, when going out to pick up chips to boil the tea kettle for the evening meal. The place was under the protection of the "Home Guards," who, not apprehending any danger, were on a forage in a huckleberry patch. The girls had become familiar with ammunition and military music. Perceiving the danger, one of the sisters proposed to face the enemy with guns, but, quickly taking in the fearful odds, had recourse to a stratagem. They fled to a side of the lighthouse, so as to be concealed from the enemy, and one of them in stentorian tones called the roll. In an instant after Rebecca struck a martial air on the fife, and Abbie hammered on the drum lustily. The music reached the British, a flag was hoisted and the two boats wheeled about, and in the act a seaman fell overboard but was seized, neck and heels, and hauled in. The music also alarmed the absent guards, who returned in time to raise tumultuous cheers as the enemy were departing, the ladies playing" Yankee Doodle." These two sisters never married, although the) had several proposals. They were very industrious, and could ply the needle and thread on any kind of garment for male or female. The family is remarkable for their longevity. Their father died when very aged, and their mother at 87, and their paternal grandfather at more than 100. One sister, Mrs. Jane Curtis, is in her 90th year, and another, Mrs. Hawthorne, is in her 79th. The house occupied by these two celebrities was built by their grandfather 140 years ago, and is in a wonderful state of preservation. —Boston Traveler. biguile the hours of the passage, by "Sailor yarns," and on one occasion he related the story of his "two Aunts," who put the British to flight, during the war of 18 12, off the Coast of Plymouth, Mass.

Last Thursday night the grounds of the Chinese Church were gay with paper lanterns and the audience rooms, above and below, were brilliantly lighted. The occasion was the welcome extended by the Christian Chinese of Honolulu to their tried friend and teacher, Mr. F. W. Damon, ( "Frank Damon",) to the new teacher of Chinese brought by Mr. Damon from China, to Rev. and Mrs. S. C. Damon and to Mrs. F. W. Damon. Mr. Coo Kirn was the moving SLirit in the affair, his efforts being ably seconder! by his efficient wife, by Consul Alee, by Mr. Li Cheung and by the Chinese Christians generally. The second story room was prettily trimmed, branches of palms stood in the corners, branches of some graceful climbing plant depended from the lamp brackets aloni; the walls and hung from the chandeliers. The pulpit lost its conventional identity in a mantle of Rowers and ferns and delicate greenery. On the wall behind the pulpit were the words "Welcome Aloha"— the same vtmrU nm! the same letteri hat had greeted Mr. Oggle and J'l us i in the Y. M. C. A. Hall. The programme of welcome began by a few words in Chinese" from Mr. Goo Kirn. Then Rev. C. M. Hyde prayed. After prayer a familiar hymn was sung—Hawaiian, Chinese, English voices, each in their own language. Then Mr. F. W. Damon made a brief address in Chinese. He spoke slowly yet without any hesitancy and with apparent fluency, evidencing a marked advance in his study of at least a portion of a language whose interminable dialects have been the despair of many a linguist. After his address in Chinese, he spoke briefly in English, expressing the graceful converse of that graceful sentence of Confucius, "It is good to greet the home-come traveller from a foreign shore." Mr. Hyde made a felicitous little speech of congratulation, in behalf of the foreign well wishers of the Chinese Mission. Another hymn was sung, after which brief speeches were made by Rev. S. C Damon, Hon. A. Y. Judd and Mr. T. H. Davies—all three being interpreted by Mr. Li Cheung. In the course of Judge Judd's remarks, he advised all the unmarried adult Chinese before him to go or send to China and take each to himself one wife. Mr. Davies alluded in glowing terms to the average commercial integrity of Chinese traders in Hawaii, and mentioned, impersonally, an instance of rare business honor on the part of a Chinese merchant of this city. Mr. To Ting, the new teacher, spoke briefly, in Chinese. The assembly then went down stairs to the school rooms, where ice cream, cake, tea and coffee were served; and where the audience had the pleasure of hearing Mrs. F. W. Damon sing, in Chinese, one of the familiar hymns of Christians in ev;ry land. The lady's mastery of the language and its accent is so perfect that Mr. Li Cheung declares that if he had not seen the singer should have be lieved the voice to be that of a Chinese lady. —Saturday Press, Sept.

A very large con- gregation assembled to hear him, including Captain Aridji, of the Japanese training-ship Tsukuba. Mr. Damon spoke in strong terms against the injustice received at the hands of foreign powers by Japan; and paid a handsome tribute to the efforts of Judd, Richards, Lee, Wylie and others who had so successfully labored to secure the autonomy of these islands and to prevent a reproduction of the same offensive conditions that hamper the best development of Japan, He presented an array of figures showing something of the development of the present educational system of Japan—a system thai no one man has done more to develop, than Mr. M.
