Owing to calms and very unfnvornblo

house, killing two men and two women.
One of ihe men fled from the house with his
infant daughter in his anus, hut was shot
down, beheaded, and the little one. two years
old, taken captive. The mother made her
escape, making unavailing moans and rries
fur her lost child. The four beads were
taken offnnd, together with the infant, taken
to Omoa in triumph —the heroes deeming it
most prudent to decamp before the sleepers
had become sufficiently awakened to attack
in their turn. One of the heads, that of a
woman, was seen by our people at Hivaoa,
salted down in a tub, which was carried to
Hivaoa as a trophy. The fate of the little
one was dreadful.
Its eyes were drawn
open and filled with sand, a hag approached
as if to kiss it, hut sent her teeth into its
cheeks, just under the eyes!
Just as we were entering the bay. she was
carried up to a mount close to our anchorage,
and there, in n cocoanut grove which is consecrated to their god, she was strangled nnd
left in a silting posture, propped up with
stones. I asked a native why they did it; he
said, "O givee devil, so devil help when
fight." I asked one of the leading men, who
enjoys the reputation of being a great warrior,
(and by the way the same that shot the
woman whose head was salted,) if we could
have permission to visit the above named
cocoanut grove; he said, " 0 nn. got gote up
there," meaning a god. They sai I none who
were defiled by eating with women could go
there. I noticed that this man had been shot
through the wrist on some former occision,
and that he was not at all proud of his
wound, but endeavored to conceal it. I told
him the next ball might strike in a better
place and finish him, but he thought not. In
a conversation with some of these warriors,
I observed, that soon they would nil be dead,
that the next generation would know better,
that their wars and tabus would, with them-

We left Omoa on Monday morning, June
6th, with both mis-ii'if families on board.ami
anchored nextday m llanatitopi Bay. Hivaoa,
where we heard of the lrs< oi ship Ttcilight,
sperm whaler, of Now Bedford, at llananianti Hay, about eight iiuhs west of us.
She was wrecked on the evening of the 11th,
and was seven mouths out—had two hundred barrels sperm nnd forty barrels blackball
oil on bonrd. I also found that Mr. Bickneil
was nt the wreck rendering what assistance
he could in preventing the natives Irom robbing the vessel. He tame on board the next
day and inhumed mc il at Capt. Hathaway
had sent a boat to Nnuliiva, and desired assistance. I determimd to dispatch my work
as quickly as possible and proceed to Hanamanu. Mr. H. Mated alto that the natives
were troublesome, and that the ship's company were constantly under arms.
We removed to Hauntakua Bay on the
10th, and had finished our work tin re, when
.Mr. Bickneil cam'- on board late on Saturday, (we had intended to have spent the Sabbath there,) and said he bad received information that the natives wire planning an attack upon the works of Capt. Hathaway, ami
were actually concentrating in large numbers.
We -feared Capt. H. might he taken unawares,
so we sailed early next morning anil arrived
at noon, finding all well. Mr. Bickneil accompanied us, The boat had returned from
Nuuliiva without assistance, which was the
time for the natives to strike. Our arrival
however upset all their plans. I commenced
taking on board the goods saved from the
wreck at once.
We had all on board on the 15th, and
sailed from Hanamanu Bay before dawn on
the 16th, proceeding to Hanaabi,and landing
the goods for Mr. Bickneil the same day.
We next proceeded to Puamau. and on Saturday evening had all the goods for that station on shore. We spent a very pleasant
Sabbath with the missionaries, attending a
very interesting meeting of the natives at
Kekela's meeting-hnusc, and on Monday.
20th, sailed for Fatuhivu with all on board,
amounting now to sixty-three persons.
We finished our work at that island and
sailed for Uesolution Bay for the purpose of
landing Rev. L. Kaiwi and family. Left
that place for Tahiti on Thursday, 2'id, and
arrived at Tahiti Tuesday evening, 2Sth,
where the crew of the Twilight were landed.
It was my intention to have left Tahiti next
day, but stormy weather set in, which effectually shut us in until the morning of the
4th of July, when the weather cleared, and
we towed out at sunrise.
The French storeship Indefatigable was nt
Tahiti, all ready for sea, bound to New Caledonia, but waiting for a mail, which arrived
from Chile on the 3d, bringing news of war
between France and Austria. In the national brigantine Railleur, the Governor and
his staff left Tahiti for New Caledonia April
25, taking all the French forces except 100
troops and a large proportion of officers. All
have also been removed from the Marquesas,
except the French flag and the missionaries.
The latter we found in want of provisions
and supplied them.
Tahiti is the most magnificent island I ever

saw. The harbor in which we lay, Papeete,
is one of the most beautiful in the wide
world. I was there thirty five years since,
when nil the houses and nearly all the people were native ; now, on arriving off the
harbor, very large, beautiful nnd costly dwellings nnd stores are seen skirting nlmost the
entire harbor. The broom road, which encircles the whole island, is very good for
horses, and the most of it for carriages. Our
passengers were perfectly delighted with
Tahiti.
Tl.i re are some very beautiful spots
among the Marquesas. Puamau is one of
the finest nnd pleasantest, the scenery of
which was considered delightful by Messrs.
Vaudrey antl Fnesach. The bay is spacious
and easy of access, with near a square mile
of good anchorage for the largest ships. The
lays however on the norih coast of Hivaoa,
although they may be considered safe during
the prevalence of the trade winds, are yet all
open to the north and westward. A ground
swell constantly rolls in, increasing as it near*
the shorts, causing a vessel to ride very uneasily at anchor, and throwing a heavy surf
upon thi' beach. Much caution is required
in leaving some of these bays, as the tides
run across the heads with considerable
strength—the winds generally fitful and bofllingiiear the heads, which are very high.
llaifck:ri is the best on this account, as the
heads arc low, am! the trade blows regularly.
Puamau is also safe 111 this respect. Hanaalii is the worst on the coast, being small, the
surrounding land very high, the wind coming
from all directions at nearly the same time.
Resolution Bay, at Tahuata, I think, also
cannot he highly recommended, as it is very
frequently disturbed by strong squalls, ami
has ve,v deep water; we anchored in twentyone fathoms. It is not uncommon for ships
to start their anchors and drag out of this
bay, as I have witnessed.
July 6th we had a moderate gale from the
north, and matte little progress. It hauled
next day I" N. Iv, anil finally to E., for a
couple ol days, when it hauled to N. E. and
remained until we arrived to rat. 5 deg. S.,
when it again hauled to li. We crossed the
line on Wednesday, 13th, in long. MSI deg.
III! mm. W., being ciirrented W. full thirty
miles on that day.
After passing into north
latitude, the wind changed to Iv S. E., with
fine weather. On the 15th, lat. 6 deg. 85
mm. N., long. 117 deg. 46 mm. W., found
wo had entered a strong easterly current,
which had set us in the twenty-four hours
thirty-five miles due east, the exact spot
where we found the easterly set, calm and
variable wind*, on our passage south. The
trad" also, whirh had been blowing finely
from E. S. E., failed us nt this point, the
wind hauling to the smith, with squally and
rainy weather, occasionally calm.
We remained in the doldrums until the
19th, (being currented eastward thirty miles
each day.) when we were in lat. 9 deg. 45
N., nnd took the trades fresh from N. E„
and made Hawaii Saturday morning, 23d,
at sunrise.

Wreck of the
"Twilight."
Dear Sir.:—Thinking an account of the
loss of the whaleship Twilight, of New Bedford, might be interesting to your readers, I
know of no better way in which 1 can employ
myself, than in giving you the particulars of
her loss. She was commanded by Capt.
Sylvester Hathaway, and was about seven
months from home; we had seen sperm
whales three times, and had taken 200 bbls.
of sperm, and 40 bbls. of blnekfish. On the
2Sth of May, we came to anchor in the Bay
ol Hanamanu, Dominica Island, one of the
Marquesas group, to recruit ship. After lying there five days, havinggot all the supplies
we could, we started from the bay on the
evening of the 2nd ofJune, with a light breeze
blowing directly out of the hay, when the
wind suddenly hauled around to northeast
nnd struck us aback. We immediately
braced around and lowered two boats to tow,
but the ship being very sharp aft, and a
heavy swell rolling in at the time, she gathered Sternway almost immediately; which was
no sooner perceived, than we let go our larboard anchor; but it did not hold her, lor she
struck in a k\v momenta after we let it go.
We then ran out two hedges, one weighing
1000 lbs., the other 125 lbs., and tried to
kedge her off, but owing to her heavy surging, she parted both lines. As our only resource now waa the anchors, we hove up the
larboard anchor, placed it on a raft made of
empty casks and towed it out as far as we
could, let it go, and began to heave; but the
anchor came home as fast as we hove. Tho
ship was now striking very heavy, and had
considerable water in her hold. Finding nil
attempts to save the ship useless, the captain
called the officers together and consulted with
them, and came to the conclusion to cut
away her masts, in order to save some of the
cargo. As soon as it was daylight, we lowered the boats and commenced sending ashore
what few things we could save. The moment the ship struck, the natives rushed
aboard and stole everything they could lay
their hands on. While we were trying to
stive the ship, we rould do nothing to prevent
them ; but when we found that we could not
save her, we turned our attention to saving
what we could of the cargo. We finally
drove them all off, and commenced sending
ashore what few things we could save. Over
the things we landed, we were obliged to
place a guard, and even then the natives contrived to steal a great many things. As soon
as we could, we got some sails ashore and
made a tent, and placed all the things in it as
fast as they came ashore. On the 4th of
June, we were very agreeably surprised at
receiving a visit from the Rev. J. Bickneil, as
we were not aware there was any white
missionary residing on the island. I assure
you that his presence amongst us cheered and
revived our drooping spirits considerably.
He came prepared to assist us in building a
house ; but as we had just finished one, we
did not require his assistance. But there was
not one of the ship's company who did not
feel just as grateful to him as though we had
required his assistance; and I feel assured,
that I may safely return him the sincere
thanks of the whole ship's company, for the
kindness which he extended to us during our
stay on the island. I must here pause to

"Me want Mikanari,

want
Mikanari."
At the Bethel Sabbath school, August 31,
three Polynesians were present, neatly dressed
in sailor rig. On being asked who they were,
and what island they were from, the first
replies, " Me Ebon man ; Miki Doane and
JMiki I'ierson mikanari Ebon." The second
says, " .Me Qualan (Strong's Island) man ;
Miki Snow me mikanari." And the third

|ieal, nnd the Hawaiian Missionary Society
responded to the appeal, sent out a bund ol
Hawaiian missionaries, with their associate,
Mr. Bickneil. Matonui had but an indefinite
idea of what he asked for. The history of
the Hawaiian Missions to the Maiquesas
speaks volumes in favor of sending out missionaries. Not to speak of Hie good effected
among the cannibal Marquesans, the entire
crew of the Twilight most thankfully ascribe the preservation of their lives to the
presence of Mr. Bickneil, and the opportune arrival of the Morning Star. This incident affords a most happy illustration of the
reflex influence of missions.
He that watercth, shall be watered himself."
We would merely add that the Morning
Star is expecbd to explore the Hogolen
group during her next trip to the wesiwaul.
May she bring back such a report as shall lead
to the immediate i stablisbraent of a well appointed mission siation under the p.lronage
of the American Board of Foreign .Missions.

An old visitor and frequenter of the Home,
formerly officer on board a whale ship, now a
petty officer on board the U. S. sloop-ofwar
St. Louis in the Gulfof Mexico, thus writes
from San Juan del Norte, under date of June
1, 1869:
" I was reading the Sailor's Magazine of
last March, and was very -happy to see a
piece written by you announcing the benefit
the Sailor's Home had done, and that now
the debt amounted to only three hundred dollars. You do not know how happy 1 should
feel if I could only raise that sum and send
it to you. I will try and do it, or raise as much
as I can. We cannot put our money, I
think, in a better place, and to a better purpose. Write to me, and tell me how I can
send you the money for the benefit of the
Sailor's Home."
Our correspondent adds the following respecting some of those seamen who have
professed to have become religious men during the late revival in New York : "We
have aboard about twenty or more converts
of Mr. Jones of New York, (Chaplain in the
Mariner's Church,) who ire really very good
men, and they have services every night in
the cock-pit. The Captain Ims allowed them
that privilege."

A cold bath or a tumbler of ice water is
very refreshing in a warm nnd sultry dogday of August, but not half so refreshing as
the reports of the well sustained meetings of
the Dashaw lys. They are held every Saturday evening at the Bethel Vestry, and are
well attended. The present number of members is more than fifty. The growth of this
Association is one ol the most encouraging
features in the prospects of our city. Too
long have the hard working mechanics, the
carpenters, the masons, and the tailors, been
accustomed to spend their earnings ut the
dram shop. The scores which some of these
men have run up are frightful. Many have
spent more than SoOO per annum for strong
drink, and others all they could earn. Most
nobly have they came forward and pledged
their names and honor that they will put an
end to such proceedings. The actual saving
of money, however, is but a small portion of
the real gain to individuals, families and the
community. If the community would bear
the recital, we could relate a story of rum's
doings in Honolulu that would make humanity weep. Alas for the noble, the generous,
the free-hearted, the talented, that have gone
down to an untimely grave, and still they go!
O ye, who are sporting with the tempter, beware, or you will add your names to the
ignoble list of rum victims Arise, and add
your names to the noble list of Dashaways!

The Hula.—Late news from Tahiti reports the polite Frenchmen as having banished the Goddess of the Hulas from the
dominions of the Protectorate. Quite a com
pliment to Puritan prejudice or missionary
influence! For many years she was forbidden to exhibit her licentious practices upon
Hawaiian shores; but within a few years
pas; she has returned and coquetted with persons of the baser sort." According to the
New Code, it appears that by paying ftlO, at
the discretion of the Minister of the Interior,
she may give a performance, or make an exhibition of her indecent and corrupting
dance.*. In the names of decency, purity,
virtue, morality, and Christianity, we hope
the Minister will preserve the dignity and respectability of his high position, by making il
tabu la for a hula dance within the dominions ol His M jesty Kamehameha IV.

Late News. —An " Extra from the Advertiser office, and a "Supplement" from the
Polynesian, issued last Monday, furnish the
latest intelligence from Europe and America.
On the 4lh of June and ihe day following,
near 300,000 soldiers fought desperately upon
the banks of the Ticino. Both Austriansand
French claim the victory. Many thousands
were killed. The French have gained a
position upon the opposite side of the Ticino.
The very latest dates state that they were
about to enter Milan. The great struggle
appears to have just commenced. Germany
will join the Austrian*, England will remain neutral, if possible.
HDaoewkintsh,fWashi

Dashaway.
Just one year ago died the leader of theold
Washingtonian temperance movement. The
following truthful and eloquent tribute to his
memory is from the pen of the distinguished
writer, L. M. Sargent, Esq. :—
The career of this good and eminently useful man terminated on the 26th day of
August last. By his unwearied and consistent efforts for seventeen years, an incalculable amount of good has been wrought in
the cause ol temperance and humanity. A
higher order of talent, a superior education,
and a more elevated social position would
have availed him less than the condition and
circumstances from which he emerged, to become what he has been, for the period of
seventeen years —the unwavering and indefatigable advocate of the temperance cause.
As tamed elephants are employed, in the
East, to catch and convert the wild ones, so
drunkards, who have really reformed, are the
most effective agents to operate upon those
who have not. The physician is the most
acceptable, who, we believe, has a clear comprehension of our case ; and the more so, if
he has ever had a severe touch of the same
malady himself. In 1&10, Mr. Hawkins was
a consummate drunkard. His reformation
was complete, and his consistency beyond all
•
question. He was a man of clear head,
aud an honest heart; and his influence, among
the intemperate, was great; the seals of his
effective ministration weie numerous.
Well, this good man is no more. If he
had been a man of wealth, the first question,
on 'Change, would be—•• what did hcleavef"
Now, our readers will perceive, what a miserable manager he was, when we tell them
that be invested the little treasure that he
had in a stock, which, we fear, is not at a
premium in the market—he invested it in
heaven. But he left a widow and a daughter
—that daughter, Hannah Hawkins, who was,
under God, the author and finisher of her
poor father's reformation, and the history of
whose filial deration is before the temperance
world, an imperishable recoid. He lelt them
dependent. His thought, his time, his care,
Ins efforts, he gave to the cause of temperance. His relormation, his peace of mind,
his rest in heaven—for drunkards, we are
told, cannot enter there—he owed to this
more than Grecian daughter.
What a debt !
Can H ever be paid ? A portion of it may.
Who, in some sense, is not a beneficiary of
this public benefactor ? The drunkard, reformed by his exertions, owes the exact value,
whatever it may be, of his moral resurrection. And every brand, snatched from the
burning, the conversion of every drunken
pauper, into a sober, working citizen, confers
an obligation upon the whole community.

THE MURDERER OF THE MISSIONARY JOHN
WILLIAMS.
We copy the following paragraphs from a
letter written by the Key. George Gill, dated
Karotonga, ISth December, ISoS:
" I notice a paragraph in the Frivivl of
September, ISSB, respecting the man who
murdered the never-to-be-forgotten Williams,
copied from my brother's work 'Gems from
the Coral Islands,' *CC. As the John Williams, missionary bark, has just landed me
in the midst of my family anil duties here
after an absence of four and a half months,
during which time, in company with the
Key. Geo. Stall worthy, of Samoa, I visited
Erromanga and all our stations in Western
Polynesia, you may be gratified with a few
notes, addenda, respecting that memorable
spot. The Key. G. N. Gordon of the Nova
Scotia Mission, began his labors there, I
think, in June, 1557, and reports that the
work of God is making a little favorable progress, notwithstanding wars from without and
wars from within. Up to the present time
there has been much fighting on Enomanga,
especially about Dillon's Bay, although not
many have been killed. The reason that
then itives kill few in their wars, is on account of the large fortified caves which they
have on the island, and into which they betake themselves when pursued by their enemies.
" The chiefs about Dillon's Bay are bad
men, nnd fond of fighting. Of late, however, one of them has began to attend daily
instruction. It was hoped that Kauiau,
sometimes called Rariani, the chief who
killed Williams, was at one time favorably
disposed to attend to the advice nnd counsel
of the teachers ; but he is still a painted savage, going about in a state of nudity, thirsting for the blood of his fellows, and iscontin
ually in a fighting attitude with all his part)
He is but seldom seen about the missio
premises. After Mr. Gordon landed there
the native teachers were so located as t
secure a greater extent of influence am
labor. Alter three months diligent labor, Mr
G.s congregation would number twenty
these would attend with considerable regu
lurity to the means of Christian instruction
•• At Bunliill stution the native teachers
have been sadly disappointed in their expectations, for up to a recent date but few would
attend to their counsels and instructions.
They are however upon the whole cheered
with tokens of advancement rather than
retrogression. Throughout the New Hebrides Group and Loyalty Group many circumstances conspire to urge us to press forward and enter and take possession in the
name of our Lord and Master, but the men
are not to be found who are willing to join
Claims of other countries,
in the work.
China, India nnd Africa, seem just now to
absorb all the philanthropy of our churches
at home, so we must trust to native agency,
and the more earnestly seek God's blessing
upon all our labors.
" By the first opportunity I will forward
you a few more Knrotongan Bibles and publications. I send this via Tahiti and hope it
will reach you early.
—
" Yours faithfully,
Geo. Gill."
The Use ok Spirits in the Indian Army.
The Bombay correspondent of The Morning Post says: " While speaking of spirits,
it brings to mind an order just issued by the
Governor-General, preventing the sale of
spirituous liquors to British troops marching
through the Northwest Provinces. It has
been ruled by his Lordship that every place
for the sale of spirits on the line of march
shall be closed while a regiment or detachment of soldiers is passing by or encamped in
its vicinity. Such shops to be closed during
the passage or period of encampment of
troops, nnd compensation at certain prescribed
rates is to be made to the retailers for los.-es
thus sustained by them. This is a wholesale
regulation, nnd if carried out in its integrity
will be the means ol saving many a soldier's
life.
The income of the Pope is said to be

pay interest, $2,700,000 to support the array
and police, $600,000 to support prisons, and
$24,000 to schools. Had we a voice in the
councils of His Holiness, we would recommend an exchange of prison and school appropriations. $600,000 for schools would,
in a few years, render $24,000 for prisons
quite sufficient.

Our Currency.—The Chamber of Commerce has
nmlertakcn to regulate the currency of the kingdom.
The gentlemen belonging to that honorable Board
are large dealers, nnd seldom perhaps handle coin of
less vnlne than $5 or SJO pieces. The present position of the currency question may suit those gentlemen, but it dons lint suit the people who deal in
small change. A correspondent in the last PiWyatlils.
writing from Hawaii, says: "Give us plenty of
sin.ill change, and the gold will take care of itself,"
So soy the people. The demand is for small coin.
The demands of the New Cialc—l'ost Office laws and
Markets—absolutely demand that something shall lie
done to biiug the dime" and
half-dime" into
circulation. They nro row scarce as snow-tl ikes in
summer, ."'o they will continue, all reasoning to
the contrary, until " rials" and " half-rials" are put
upon a par with "dimes" and " h'nlf'-diines." Pass
this resolution in the Chamber, nnd very soon thero
will be a speedy stampede of those smooth-faced,
ugly-looking and antiquated old .Spanish coin. The
sooner the arrangement is made'he belter for nil
concerned, nut excepting (be " poor kanakas."
