The examination and exhibition at Oahu College, and also at St. Alban's College, take place during the same monih. One day is devoted to a Sabbath-school gathering of all the native and foreign children. It is accompanied by a procession. On two successive Sabbath evening*,- sermons are preached in behalf of Foreign and Home Missions in Fort Street Church. This year tbe former was preached by the Rev. Mr. Frear, and the latter by the Rev. A. O. Forbes. The narrow dimensions of our monthly sheet will not permit us to report fully all these various public meetings, anniversaries aad gatherings. They are all quite numerously attended, and so far me we may judge, try appreciative aadienc'es. We have not al- integrity, than the ticket sent forth by the Cincinnati Convention. Grant is well known, and for four years his administration has been an honor to the country. M ost heartily can we approve of Senator Wilson for Vice President, It was our privilege to have known him long ere his name became famous, and from our personal knowledge we believe he would make one of the best of public officials—honest, truthful, loyal. He is one of the people, and most nobly ha* he proved himself the friend of the people and the country. In the event of the President* death, we know that we should have a President fully competent to his position. Amherst College was refused by the Legislature of Massachusetts, the 100,000 applied for, but we rejoice to learn that Mr. Samuel A. Hitchcock, of Brimfield, of that State, has most generously donated $100,-000;' bis previous donations amounted to •75,000; besides $60,000 to Andover Sem- • inary. 49 {Gto3ff.ts,8«l.vtt Wreck of the "Queen of the East."— Captain Stoddard, lately master of this vessel, arrived in the Nebraska, bound East. On the 18th of April, his vessel was wrecked in east longitude 159 ° 10, and 29 ° 30 south latitude, on Middleton Shoal. No lives were lost, but the vessel a total wreck. The officers and crew were five days in boats, and were picked up by the schooner Commerce, and taken to Clarence Head, New Holland. From thence they proceeded to Sydney. Capt. Stoddard is accompanied by his wife. Their lot appears rather hard, after the Captain had made twenty-six voyages to China, and on seven having been accompanied by his wife. At the time of the wreck, he was bound from San Francisco to Newcastle, N. S. Wales, for coal. Death of the Mother of Judge Hartwell.—Our island readers will recall the notice of the death of the father of Judge Hartwell, as published in the April issue of our paper. By the last mail, the melancholy intelligence has been received that his mother too has passed away to the "better land," but we are happy to add, that her son was by her bedside when she was summoned. It was our privilege to become acquainted with this excellent lady, during a visit to Natick, Mass., during the summer of 1869. She was one of those refined, noble and Christian mothers of New England, whose worth is " above rubies." She died on the 11th ultimo. The Good Templars.-Weare glad to learn thatthis useful and efficient temperance organization designs to furnish tbe public with a series of addresses. Tbe first was delivered by H. L. Sheldon, Esq., at the Bethel, it was numerously attended by the members of that Order and others. The address was exceedingly appropriate and well received. The speaker's experience and observations in Honolulu, and upon the islands, during the past quarter of a century, enabled him to make a strong appeal to his audience. The next speaker, we learn, will be C, J. Lyons, Esq. �50 THE X KIEND, J I L V, 187 2.

We bad been intractable indeed had not these influences wrought in our sours some strength and elevation of spiritual life, whereby to cope with and control those lower and baser tendencies which all inherit, and to which peculiar power is lent by life among sensual races and in relaxing climates'. There was also a careful and judicious moral training. We were restrained and chastened betimes. Our parents were no believers in the let-alone system. We were warned from evil, stimulated and guided to good. We were wonted to homely domestic labors and ministrations, taught to work for ourselves and to serve others. Our parents, while toiling for the salvation of the Hawaiian people, were profoundly solicitous for the right training of their own children, which was a prominent topic of consultation at their annual gatherings. A conspicuous influence of much value, has been a peculiar care for intellectual culture. An essential conserving influence of an unusual nature was the generally adopted system of strict seclusion in childhood from intercourse with the native people. You well know, how strict and vigilant this tabu has been, and how for the most part, as parents, we adhere to the same tradition. None know, or could conceive, without .personal observation, the nameless taint that pervades the whole garrulous talk and gregarious life of all heathen people, and above which our poor Hawaiian friends have not yet generally risen. Our parents wisely heeding the early and earnest warnings given by Messrs. Tyerman and Bennet of the English Deputation, adopted from the outset the policy of seclusion, whereby we spent our childish years even in ignorance of the Hawaiian language, and in an absoluteness of innocence unparalleled elsewhere in the world. No careful observer can doubt that a direct cause and one of the strongest ones of the early degeneracy of the families of European colonists in tropical climates, has been the unrestrained association of the children with negro and native servants, whose fil'thiness, lying, superstition, and animal aims, became ingrained into their infant natures. From the taint of this leprosy we, as a class, have been happily exempted. The perils were great which endangered the youth of the missionary colony. That these perils "were surmounted, was due, as we have seen, chiefly to vigilant parental Watch and care, and to high spiritual culture. Our revered parents, so many of whom survive to witness the prosperity of their children, may rejoice therein, not only as an individual honor and blessing, but chiefly as promising to ensure the ultimate completion and success of tbe enterprise to which their lives have been devoted. The lifting up of the Hawaiian race, and establishing them on a solid foundation of Christian civilization, yet lacks completeness. Beyond all other defects, the native people are wanting in the vital element ofthe established family, with its parental watch and responsibility. The beauty of the guarded garden of childhood, of the household's sheltered fold, of the mother's nurturing cafe, is the wanting fsature of Hawaiian life. Hence the fatal blight still rests on the people, and it wastes away.

Edited by a member of the Y.M.C.A. ■ — FaiHrsoRewCuhotalrcEexcftrnal ircumstances! This question seems to belong, to a certain extent, to the field of Theology and Moral Philosophy. We all believe, very absolutely, that no one is responsible for what he cannot help. The only trouble in our minds on this point is the difficulty in definitely ascertaining what a human being can or cannot help. It is a favorite subject with many moral teachers, that men can or ought to be, to a certain extent, independent of circumstances; that they ought to control them and not be controlled by them. There is no doubt but that such a theory of life contains a large measure of truth. Strong and matured men and women should control many of their circumstances, and make them servants in fulfilling the great ends of existence. The real success of this or that life is measured by the success in this achievement. But this supposes men and women with moral characters formed and developed : rather a small part of humanity would this include. A very large proportion of the race at any one time of course are children. Their circumstances are made for them by others. The influences which surround them are selected by others. They hove neither the knowledge nor the freedom to settle these matters for themselves : they are the moral wards of the grown-up world. And yet childhood is, more than any other time of life, the period in which character is formed and fixed. A large part of the balance of the race are, without any fault of their own, in the aame position as children, as regards that knowledge, judgment and independence which give the ability of controlling circumstances.—Savages ; —the ignorant and oppressed of heathen countries, even the ignorant and toil-worn of Christian countries, so called ; —those of all the world to whom the clear light of moral teaching has been unattainable. We see, therefore, that the great majority of the race have neither the power, the freedom, nor the experience to enable them to mold circumstances favorably for their highest development, even if they had the conscientious convictions. Tha importance of this truth, in reference to our subject to-night, is very great. The great question of human responsibility is affected by it. If each person should be fortified with a symmetrical and complete moral character on coming into tbe world, the individual res- wrong or extreme. Perhaps we thus judge ponsibility would begin at birth, and would of our fellow men harshly and unjustly, and assume a magnitude and weight that is over- by standards that we have no right to usa id powering to think of.

Noble Struggle.—Among the ancient Grecian artists and their Roman imitators, the statute of Laocoon and his sons, struggling to disenthrall themselves from the folds of two enormous serpents, was accounted the noblest work of Art, and it has been admired ever since. It now stands in the Museum of the Vatican, no less admired in the nineteenth century, than in tbe days of Flinv, who describes it as adorning the baths of the Roman Emperor Titus. But have we not nobler exhibitions of strength in every day life. A few days since called and desired to sign a pledge of total abstinence. The man was well educated, he looked forth upon nature with the eye of an artist, and could wield the brush of a painter. He. had noble aspirations. Not only would he escspe from the coiling serpent of intemperance, but from sin itself. Sin is a monster serpent, whose sting is desth. From its folds he would escape. In comtemplating struggles of this nature, our Saviour says Angels rejoice, " Likewise joy shall be in Heaven over one sinner that repenteth." Not only do angels rejoice in view of such a struggle, but the Saviour of mankind comes down to assist the victim of sin to cast aside the encircling and crushing folds of the serpents of sinful indulgence. To one and all, who are thus struggling we would say, " struggle on, and relying upon Divine aid, you will overcome your bitterest foes and most deadly enemies. Beware of temptation. Say to the tempter, " get thee behind me." Here a Little, There a Little. ' The annual celebration of the Hawaiian Sunday Schools took place in June, and was interesting and successful, though the number of children in attendance was smaller than usual. The Hawaiian Logislaturo having saved the Gazette, the Hotel and the Country, now give encouraging assurances that they will be ready to disband in about a fortnight.

Hawaiian Consulate, 4 Royal Exchange Buildings, To the Editor London. E. C, 17th May, 1872. ) \) of the Friend: Sib, —Personally known to you, and long an appreciator of the good-end arduons work yea neve done and are doing in Hawaii, allow me to address a few words to you in answer to comments in your paper, on a passage in the Dean of Rochester's sermon at the consecration of Bishop Willis, Not only I, but Mr. Waterhouse, jr., and some other friends who were present and heard that address, are surprised and grieved at the impression produced by the newspaper report, as we did not, for one moment, understand the expressions referred to as applying to Hawaiians, though they were very applica- ble to the Islands of Fiji and Santa Cruz. The hurry in which our newspaper reports are often necessarily prepared;—in this case the John Bull had to be in print the next morning,—gives little time for corrections to be made by those who could inform the reporter or the editor. And, also, allow me to point out a sad want of candor, one of those defects which tend to increase and not allay religious disagreements among Christians really zealous to promote the cause of their Master. Whoever was responsible, in the first' instance, for quoting all the poragrapti in the " John Bull " except its last clause, must have known well that by inserting that la»t passage, he could have cleared up, or prevented, the wrong impression conveyed by the Words quoted ; and which wrong he was so ready to propagate and intensify. I have referred to the journal, and copy verbatim the words so omitted : " It is, however, necessary, in the cause of sober truth, to mention that in Polynesia, and among the gentle natives of Hawaii, and the rather over-civilized city of Honolulu, no danger to life or freedom has in the present case to be apprehended. The oppositions, the difficulties, are, rather, of the moral and intellectual order that have to be encountered: and he who takes the oversight ' of that far flock dispersed,' must carry with him firmnets ana consistency as well as gentleness and devotion. Many prayers will accompany Bishop Willis when he leaves our shores, to tend the farthest tendrils of ' the vine that stretches her branches unto the sea, and her boughs unto the river.'" The expected arrival of an English Bishop is perhaps the true cause of the displeasure; yet his coming may not interfere with peace ; abundance of which is promised to them 'who make peace.' May you, sir, be among that number. Yours, very faithfully, Manlby Hopkins. P. S. Since writing the above, I learn that Dr. Scott (the Dean) is hurt that words he uttered have been so misconstrued. spoke of Melanesia. He — EniToaiAL Rbmabks. We insert with much pleasure the above letter, and would remark, that we intended in the present issue ofour papei, to have alluded to the disclaimer recently published in the Advertiser, over the signature ef the Dean of Rochester. We cannot acknowledge any intention of wrong on our part or that of the good people of Honolulu, in drawing the inference we did, from the report of the Dean's sermon as printed in the London John Bull. The amends honorable to the Dean ought to be made by the reporter of that paper, and not by anybody in this part of the world. To have placed the matter exactly right, we should have been glad to have seen in print the precise phraseology employed by the Dean upon the occasion. Mr. Hopkins will pardon us for alluding to the gentle insinuation in the closing paragraph of his letter, that " the true cause of the displeasure" was " the expected arrival of an English Bishop." We should not presume to speak for the members of the English Church, but, for outsiders, nothing could be more remote from the truth. From such reports as have reached us, we can surely welcome Bishop Willis to this part of the world, hoping indeed, with Mr. Hopkins, that his coming may not interfere with " peace, abundance of which is promised to them which make peace." We would merely add, that our comments upon the Dean's supposed remarks were surely not more severe than those in the April number of the St. Andrew's Magazine —" The only extenuating circumstance of Dr. Scott's remark rests upon the supposition that he did not know anything about the Sandwich Islands and their inhabitants: and his mind being inflamed with accounts of tbe murder of Bishop Patteson, pictured Santa Cruz for Honolulu." Whether Dr. Scott, the Dean of Rochester, may or may not be acquainted with our population, we are glad to know that his " Greek-English Dictionary" is not an unknown and unconsulted book in this part of the world, and in our schools. A copy we notice on the shelves of Whitney's bookstore. Slave Trade in the South Seas. We copy the following spirited remarks from the Australasian of February 24th, a large weekly published in Melbourne : Fresh light has been thrown upon the circumstances preceding the massacre of Bishop Patteson and his companions, by the correspondence which has appeared in the English papers on the subject. It was generally believed at the time that the Santa Cruz group had been visited by a slaver or slavers painted to resemble the missionary schooner; and this belief has been strengthened, if not confirmed, by a letter published in the Tims*, the writer of which says: " I know of one of Queensland vessel that went to a group ialands frequently visited by the bishop, where the captain and crew got out a fiddle and flute and several large books; one of their number threw a white sheet over his shoulders, and they began to sing. When tbe natives, thus thrown off' their guard, came crowding on board, the crew rushed on them, hustled as many as they could below the hatches, and departed. I wish 1 could say that this was all the harm done ; but I regret to say that before the cruise of that vessel was completed, many a poor native met his death after a gallantresistance against the superior weapons of the white man. No natives being taken to Queensland who betrayed the slightest knowledge of English, these poor savages were all passed by the immigration officer as Polynesian laborers." Not only is this traffic in human beings carried on by persons connected with Queensland, but also by traders from Tahiti and Fiji; and the inhabitants of these colonies ought to make common cause with the Im- perial Government tVi stamping out these hideous practices. No measures could be too stringent for that purpose ; and we are glad to perceive that in the next session of the Imperial Parliament a bill is to be introduced by the Earl of Kimberley which will attach the crime and the penalty of felony to all act* of kidnapping. This is as it should be. No greater curse could be inflicted upon tbe people of Australia, no deeper stain affixed upon their character, than such as would result from the toleration under any pretense —however speciously disguised—of a system of slavery and slave-trading. The institution is doubly accursed. It demoralizes the employers of servile labor, and it subjects the miserable victims to one of the cruelest wrongs which human beings can inflict upon each other. It were better that every cotton field and sugar plantation in Queensland, Fiji, or Tahiti, should be abandoned to desolation, than that they should be cultivated by laborers kidnapped for the purpose from the Polynesian islands, and held in a condition of bondage which differs from slavery only in name. In the four principal colonies of this group, we venture to think the Earl of Kimberley may calculate upon receiving the moral support of a vigilant and healthy public opinion for the enforcement of the most severely repressive measures the Imperial Government may think proper to adopt with respect to this abominable traffic. Facts for Thought.—Dreydorff, in a new work on the Jesuits in the German Empire, just published at Leipsic, draws a few comparisons which are significant. Statistics prove that in Rome there are 237 times as many chances of being murdered as in England, and 133£ times more than in Protestant Prussia. In England, it is shown that one murder occurs for every 178,000 inhabitants ; in Holland, one for 163,000; in Prussia, one for 100,000 ; in Austria, one for 57,000; in Spain, one for 4,113; and in Naples, one for 2,750; but at Rome there is one homicide for every 760 of the inhabitants. Rome also scores the highest proportion of illegitimate children ; the ratio of births of this class being nearly sixty-one times greater in Rome than in London. It appears that in London there are for every one hundred legitimate births four illegitimate ; in Leipsic, twenty; in Paris, fortyeight ; in Munich, ninety-one; in Vienna, one hundred and eighteen, and in Some, two hundred and forty-three.—N.

Tbe Report of .tbe Hawaiian Board on the subject was read, and a series oi resolutions were passed, recommending tbe immediate establishmentof a Theological School in Honolulu. Report or the Committee or the Hawaiian Evangelical Association on the Theological School. 1. It is evident that if the Hawaiian Churches are to maintain their influence, the Pastors must not fall behind the people in intellectual training. They should rather take tbe lead in mental culture and civilisation. 2. In order that these objects may be mosi speedily attained, there is needed a unifying powe which shall tend to raise the standard of sue culture uniformly. 3. The only way to accomplish this object is t establish one general Theological and Trainin School, for the education of candidate* for thi ■ pastoral and missionary work. 4. This School should be located in Hooolulwl 5. It should be organised for a three year/I course, with provisions for exceptional case*. 8. R*v. J. D.

Therefore, It is referred to the Hawaiia™ Board of thi* Association, to seek a proper sit* for this School, and to commence the School at a* early a date as possible, not later than tbe end of 1872.

A. Kaiea, the King of the Island of Apniang, and a deacon of the church, who, amidst tbe wars, contentions, strife and exile which he was called to endure, as be supposed, for the sake of Christ, stood fast in the faith, and died trusting in Jesus Christ for salvation, on the 15th of February, 1871. These fruits of missionary labor should encourage us to sow the good seed with faith, trusting that the ever-living Master will gather to Himself, in due time, many sheaves, which may abound to the glory of His name. After the above was written the messenger of death again visited us, and took from our midst one who was hoping soon to return to the field of his former labors, with a new companion to sympathise and aid him in tbe work. The Rev. HL Aea, husband of Deborah, mentioned above, died on the 27th of May, 1872, after two weeks' suffering, leaving several children to mourn his death. Hie work i* ended.

This does not include what has been paid in since May 15th, when the accounts for the year were closed. Hone Hl.olsnt. The Evangelical Association of Kauai, at its meeting in October, 1871, voted to ask the Hawaiian Board for fifty dollars, to aid in supporting the pastor of the church at Wnimea, Kauai, Rev. A. Kaukau. This nid was cheerfully granted. As a general thing, the stipends of the pastors of the churches are paid, and some of the churches have increased these stipends. Otherchurches, however, are deficient in this respect, and seek to eke out the salary of their pastors by permitting them to seek a part of their support by labors which may hinder their appropriate pastoral work., There may be cases where the salary of the pastors will not support them and their families, but these are exceptions. In such cases, the Hawaiian Board have always felt it a duty and a pleasure to render assistance, when asked for through the proper channel. Female Boarding Srhaols. As is the character of the mothers of a nation, so is the character of that nation. Mothen stamp their own image upon their children ; these, with their parents, form the homes, and of these the nation is made up. Hence the importance of educating the girls of the nation. If there is any one thing which this Hawaiian people needs more than any other, it is educated, cultured, Christian homes; but these cannot be had without educated, cultured, Christian mothers. Just such -women are also needed to engage in woman's work on the islands of this North Pacific—cur missionary field. For want of such' we have been hindered from reinforcing one of our oldest missions the past year. The want of qualified women to engage in labor for the Master, is a hindrance to both our Home and Foreign work. To remove this, and supply the want, four Female Boarding Schools have been in operation, viz : one on the Island of Kauai, two on the Island of Oahu, and one on Maui; —not one on the largest island of the group. Hawaii is destitute of a boarding school, to which it might send its daughters for instruction. Two schools are now needed for that Island. Pupils can be found for both of these, were they established, from families who think they cannot part with their daughters to go to another island, but who would gladly provide for them in a school upon their own island. To found such schools means will not be wanting. Faith, prayer and self-denial will supply these. Has not the time come to commence this work ? The School at Koloa, Kauai, under, the care of Mn. Dr. Smith and daughter, has been continued as in years past, but with a decrease in tne number of pupils. Eleven �THI, pupils have been connected with the school. Dr. Smith writes in regard to it thus : " The school has been in existence ten years; is now made up, for the most part, of orphans and half-orphans. Five pupils arc supported in the school gratuitously. A capitation fee, however, is received for them from the Hawaiian Government. These girls arc all quiet in their deportment, and we have hope that they may be Christians, but God know'eth the heart. The pupils are taught in the English language. The large girls, however, read and write in the Hawaiian language." Several graduates from this school have married, and have made excellent wives} the most of them to foreigners. The efficient Principal of the Kaicaiohao Female Boarding School, Miss L. Bingham, together with her sister and others as assistants, has continued that seminary. It has been in a prosperous state. Forty-four boarding pupils (26 of whom are pure Hawaiians, 13 half or quarter white, and 5 half Chinese) are now connected with the institution. Two have been admitted to the church the past year; eight pupils are members of the church, and one propounded for church membership. One of its graduates was married In June last, to the Assistant Teacher of the Lahainaluna Seminary, and another at a later period to a foreigner. This school is accomplishing the object for which it was founded. May the great Head of the Church still continue to smile upon it, and from its raise up many who may be Mothers in fupils srael. The enerj!"-'-'- «"--' of Trustees of the *«> seminary, at Waialua, Waialua Oahu, ha' been awake to. the interests of that inst Jtion. In the early part of the year, the Rev. A. O. Forbes, President of the Board of Trustees, resigned his place, on account of his removal to another island. The Rev. H. H. Parker was chosen in his place. With this exception, the Board of Trustees remains as it was lust year. Miss M. E. Green, as Principal, has had charge of the school. She bus been assisted by Miss Goodale and others. The Master has smiled upon their labors. The Principal re- ports 41 scholars now* connected with the school. The pupils have experienced very little sickness ; some who came to the school weak and feeble,are now strong and healthy. They are taught all kinds of house-work; eat with the teachers at the same table ; are ■instructed in tbe English and Hawaiian language*. Meetings on the Sabbath and other days are kept up among them. Som" hope they may have found the Saviour to b*. precious to their souls. New applications are being made for entrance into the school continually. The institution needs another teacher, and must have one or suffer the consequence. This seminary, in years past, has sent forth many who have been a blessing to this and other lands, and we are very sanguine that it will continue to do so. The Makaxeao Female Seminary, under the care of the Rev. C. B. Andrews, Wife, and Miss Carpenter, has been opened for pupils, and many girls have availed themselves of its privileges. The pupils are mostly young, but will soon be the mothers of the nation. Those in charge of the seminary have been indefatigable m their labors, r I, Ir, \I) .1(1.1 ol and may hope to see rich fruit in years to come. The pupils numbered 40 at the commencement of this year. The Hawaiian Government has granted aid to the seminary to the amount of 81500 for building purposes, and fifty dollars in capitation fees. The Trustees of the institution made an appeal to the foreigners and churches on Maui, for the sum of 92000, which has been subscribed, and the most of it paid. In addition to these boarding schools, Mrs. Lyons and her daughter, of Wnimea, Hawaii, "have kept up a Family School for small girls, which numbers five scholars. Tbe«l*glral School. Thirteen pupils have been connected with this institution the past year, two of whom have been called to churches—one on Hawaii and one on Kauai. The Rev. Win. P. i Alexander has done the most of the teaching Z. 51 rangements have been made to have the work reprinted. As this could be done much cheaper, and better in the United States than at these Islands, the work has been printed and bound there, at a coat of H2OQ. The American Tract Society has publish, ed books for our Missions in the Marshall and Caroline Islands. These were carried through the press by Messrs. Sturges and Snow while in the United States. (See table below.) The sale of books the last year does not equal that of previous years. This can be accounted for from the fact that we have had no hymn book, or other new book on sale. Many large editions of old works published in years past are now on hand. The** are very seldom colled for—dead capital—serve only to fill up the shelves of the Depository. To«o7 Ae.

Two hundred, and eighty gallons of oil, with $29.50 in cash, have been contributed for missions during the past year. 1242 books have been sold, for which 384 gallons of oil and 556.65 in cash have been received. One Gilbert Islander has been licensed to preach, and three Hawaiians ordained to the work of the ministry, the past year. The following condensed report of our old stations will show the state of the work at each : Tapittita. Some reaction, as was to be expected, has taken place at this island, but nothing which by any means should discourage the laborers there. Meetings on the Sabbath, and on week-days, as also the Monthly Concert, are kept up. The congregation on the Sabbath numbers from 250 to 400. A goodly number of the children aud adults are taught in day schools by the wives of our missionaries. Houses of worship have been furnished with lamps for evening services, the people contribute to the cause of missions and purchase all their books. No church has yet been formed on the island, though it is thought there may be material for one, as there are those who give some evidence that they have been born of the Holy Ghost. A census taken by one of the missionaries, the past year, makes tbe population 6172. Tirana. On account of the disturbed stale of things upon this island, it has been temporally vacated. It is hoped that the field will soon be again occupied, as the former missionary, Mr. Haina, will probably return again to the �I II X island, and do what he can to spread light among the people. This has always been, and is still, a hard field. Two stations were kept up on the island* the past year. Thirty scholars are reported in day schools. The little church formed there some two years since, is not in a prosperous state. Apalaa. At this station more missionary labor has been expended than at any other place in the Mission. Has now a church of 38 members, 8 new members admitted the past year. This church has been called to part with one of its deacons, A. Kaiea, the king of the island. In April 1871 a new king was inaugurated, and the formor rebel chief appointed chief minister. Quiet for the most part has prevailed on the island. No war, nor drinking to intoxication. The church members are represented as walking in an orderly manner. A house of worship, to take the place of the one destroyed by the rebels a few years since, has been built and dedicated. In June 1870 a work of grace commenced among the people which continued till April 1871. During that time the congregations on the Sabbath were large. No fishing, nor sailing canoes, or hulas were practiced on the Sabbath. Many appeared to be seeking the way of life. In April 1871 there was a revival of the hula and other heathen customs. The cultivation of the land was neglected. Many of the people spent their time in flying kites, playing base ball, racing canoes, and other amusements. At this time a false prophet appeared, who had some influence for a time over the people. The Sabbath school is represented as prosperous, as many'as one hundred scholars being in attendance. Two stations are now occupied on that island. Rev. H. Bingham and wife spent most of the time of their visit to the group at that island. Much good, doubtless, was done by their visit. The Hawaiian missionaries were encouraged. The General Meeting of the Mission held, and means put in operation, which may produce fruit to the glory of the Master. What this Mission needs is a missionary and wile to live among them. BiUrlUrl. Some of the church members at this station have become lukewarm, and have gone back to heathenism. This, however, is not the case with the great majority. The younger brother of the king keeps on in the Christian course, and is always found on the side of truth and right. Three houses of worship are connected with 'Is station. 39 church members are in regular standing, 17 have been received the past year, 11 church members have been set aside from the church, 3 of whom have been restored, 2 have been excommunicated. Meeting on tbe Sabbath and week days are kept up as in former years. 137 gal. of oil, and Sl7 in cash have been contributed to monthly concert fund, 200 books have been >id, for which 83 gal. of oil, and *10.29 'keen received.

In connection with our General Association, there are live Hawaiian Island Associations, one Presbytery, and one Association of the Foreign Churches; tbe whole number of settled pastors, foreign and native, being forty-nine. In looking over the churches generally, we are compelled to admit that the standard of piety is too low. Conlormity to this world, in its spirit and maxims, is too much the rule. We are sad, and mourn over the lukewarm and lapsed state of some of our churches, having a name to live, while many of their members are dead. Our Hawaiian Zion has not yet attained to the standard of the Apostle—"A holy nation, a peculiar people, shewing forth tbe praises of Him who hath called them out of darkness into his marvelous light." Still it is clear from the reports before us, that the cause of truth and righteousness is on the advance. Most of the churches, so recently organized, with native pastors, inexperienced, are growing and developing as symmetrically as could reasonably be expected. In a very few of our churches there have been revivals. A season of reviving was experienced some months since in the Kawaiahao church and congregation, under the care of the Rev. H. H. Parker, in which about forty persons were hopefully converted. A few others have been more or less refreshed by the quickening influence of the Holy Spirit. We rejoice with grateful hearts, that both the foreign churches in Honolulu have been blessed with the precious reviving influences of the Spirit of God. In this work of grace, some thirty or forty precious souls have been hopefully converted and gathered into the fold of the Good Shepherd. CONTRIBUTIONS. Notwithstanding the financial interests of our island community, foreign and native, have been very seriously affected by the loss of the Arctic fleet, the Chicago fire, and drought, yet the contributions for foreign missions and other benevolent purposes, have been larger than in years past. The whole amount contributed to the Hawaiian Board, during the year, is $11,062.09. Contributions for other benevolent purposes, $18,568 25. Total receipts for the year, as reported, $29,630.39. EDUCATION. Under the very liberal policy of the Hawaiian Government, and the wire and efficient direction of the inspector General, the Hon. H. R. Hitchcock, aided by the Board of Education, not only are the Common Schools of our islands vastly improved, but also the Boarding and High Schools, under the Government patronage, are coming up to a higher standard than they have maintained for some years. In years past, the Hilo Boarding School and the Lahainaluna Seminary have educated a large proportion of the �1 Hfc KKIKM), best men in the nation, in Church and State, in Foreign Missions, and those taking the lead in teaching and in the various departments of business. We have great cause for gratitude thatboth these institutions are now in a prosperous state ; —the former under its venerable and wise director, who has had the charge for tbe last thirty-six years, the Rev. D. B. Lyman, assisted by Miss E.Lyons and good native teachers. The number of pupils, at close of the school year, was 72. The latter, by the Rev. S. Bishop and the Rev. A. O.

At the invitation of the Hawaiian Board, he went as a Delegate to the Marquesas, on board the Morning Star, and since his return his labors in teaching have not been resumed. Our hearts arc sad in view of the great want of Ministers, of tbe right spirit and qualifications, both for the home and foreign fields. Many of our home churches are now destitute, having no one to break to them the Bread of Life, while there are very few young men looking forward with a desire to enter the self-denying work of preaching the Gospel. More lucrative and less laborious situations for educated young men, are multiplying, and the temptations for entering them are very strong. Tbe General Association of the Hawaiian islands has voted to establish a Theological School in Honolulu, as the best and most centra 1 location for such an institution, and with the hope of gradually meeting the wants of the destitute. But it is of the utmost importance that more earnest and vigorous efforts be made in all our schools and churches, to seek out and influence the minds of young men to prepare themselves for the active service of Christ. Not only do we want men whose hearts are fired with the love of Christ for the destitute churches at home, but the fields of Micronesis and Nuuhiva are white already for the harvest, and the Macedonian cry, "Come over and help us," is wafted on every breeze. But where are the men full of love to Christ, of faith, and of the Holy Ghost ? saying, Here are we, send us." Funds are " the harvest is plenteous, but the abundant, " the laborers are few. Pray ye, therefore, Lord of the harvest, that he would send forth laborers into his harvest." As a general thing, a spirit of love and unanimity sjons. Our meetings have been harmonious in deliberating for the interests of the Redeemer's Kingdom on those islands, and we trust the Lord Jesus, by his Holy Spirit, has been with us. \ John D. Paris, K.
