" When a deed is done for Freedom, Through the brosd earth's itching breast Runs a thrill of joy prophetic. Trembling on from East to West." The celebrations, which group themselves about our National American Anniversary, will be this year animated by a fresh and vigorous life. Old forms and ceremonies will take on a new beauty viewed in the light of the Centennial year; the most extravagant and jubilant enthusiasm will be permitted on"the day we celebrate;" while those, who look beneath the show and festivity of these days, will find in them food for thought and themes for praise and gladness. Their deep and glorious significance cannot fail to touch all American hearts, while the deed they recall, done in the name of Freedom, has become a part of the heritage of mankind. The " thrill of joy" still runs " from east to west," finding even in these islands, in far distant seas, an answering chord. With "deeper, clearer intonations" than ever before, through the hush of the vanished years, break the tones of the grand old bell proclaiming "liberty throughout all the land, unto all the inhabitants thereof." The dawn of the era of American Liberty is one of the sublime things of history. The hours of the second, third, and fourth of July, 1876, were fraught with mighty meaning to tbe great men, whose hearts bore the burden of their country's weal or woe. The grandest possibilities lay within their grasp and they saw with undimmed vision the beauty of true freedom. They never faltered intheirtrust,butchoseaboveall things HONOLULU, JULY 4, 18.6. of the world ; and the astonished nations as they read that all men are created equal started out of their lethargy, like those who have been exiles from childhood, when they' suddenly hear the dimlyremembered accents of their mother tongue." America has ever stood a child among old and storied nations. She has cherished hopes rather than memories; has entrenched herself in forests, not in crumbling feudal castles; hns gloried in the birth of new and honored names, rather than in the lustre of a far off past. But the time of her coronation has come, and from " this terraced height" all hearts turn back with loyal love to the grand and glorious picture which gleams luminously through the mists of a hundred years. From all lands have come those to do her homage and to lay gifts at her feet, and her children glory in her name. In this Centennial year, however, none offer more frank and sincere allegiance to their native land than those, who from foreign shores, send back to the old home . their heartfelt greetings. Our remoteness has not lessened the fervor of patriotism and national love. The bonds of sympathy and affection have strengthened with the years, have been a legacy from father to son, so that we claim two lands as ours, for, "Side by aide in our hearts to-day, Stand Columbia nnd Hawaii nel." {<$iii Series <Jol. 33. 49 Editorial Correspondence. A TRIP TO THE CENTENNIAL.-No. 4. P A ilgrimage to Concord. Old world pilgrimages have long been the topic of remark and of song. Mecca, Jerusalem, and Rome have for ages drawn many a weary pilgrim who has, with soiled garments and staff in hand, walked over mountains and across deserts until he could catch a view of spots sacred to religion and consecrated by superstition. But in modern times steam on sea and land has come to the pilgrim's aid, and he no longer walks sorefooted and exhausted, but whirled along with almost lightning speed. America—the new world—is coming to have its sacred spots where pilgrims resort, but not with careworn faces and wearied limbs! Concord, Mass., is one of these places. Its Indian memories are not devoid of interest, but its Revolutionary history is full of thrilling incidents, and these have been oft celebrated by orator and»poet. A charming June morning found me standing beside the new and exquisitely beautiful monument representing an American sculptor's idea of a Revolutionary minute-man. This work of art is much admired. The statue represents a soldier standing by the plow in the field, with musket in hand, ever intently listening and eye looking most piercingly, if perchance the enemy is approaching. The monument stands near the one erected to the American soldiers who fell on that long-tO'be-remembered day of April, 1775,—when tbe British made tlreir attack upon the militia of Concord. Upon the pedestal supporting the statue of the " minute-man," are these beautiful lines of Emerson: May we not hope that a still fairer page of history will be traced by America in the century that lies before her ? Let us gather inspiration from the broad and generous feelings born of these Centennial memories.

It is a day which I shall long remember. The weather was most beautiful, much resembling a mild and pleasant day in Honolulu, although the air was little cooler.

The charming gallery and the splendid classical music there, I feasted upon them! At half-past 7we were in Leipzig, where we stayed but an hour. The opera house of Leipsig is very handsome, and the only handsome building there we had time to see ; but there is much of interest, historical interest, in the place. At the present time Leipzig ia one of the busiest commercial cities in Europe ; much money comes from the sale of furs and also from the hundreds of books printed there every year. Leaving Leipzig we traveled all night, being alone in the car, and at S in the morning were in Cologne, the largest town in the Rhenish province of Prussia. It is named after Colonia Agrippina, the mother of Nero, who was born here, and still shows traces of Italian life. On account of the situation on the Rhine it had connection with Italy by navigation, and this gave Cologne great power. The sewerage must be much better now than in the days of Coleridge, for he says : "But tell me, Nymphs, what power divine Shsll henceforth wash the river Rhine t" I observed a clear atmosphere there, and the water was pure to drink. Some of the old streets are very narrow and with side-walks so much so that* only one person can walk at a time on them. Our whole interestcentered in and around the magnificent cathedral, which is one of the grandest in the world. It is in the form But the hopes of youth have such wondrons might, That they gild all lime with radiance bright,— And leaping over a chssm of years, From this partiug hour, with its smiles sod tears,— Can picture tbe meeting again,—in joy,— With nothing ofchange, and with no alloy.

" . % of a cross, the roof is of copper and rests on a hundred columns; the carvings in and outside are wonderfully delicate ; as far as the eye can reach there are beautiful carvings worthy of any great artist, and the artist of all this massive wonder, dating from the thirteenth century, is now positively unknown. Arch after arch inside the cathedral, through which one sees beautiful shades of light tinted by the great glass windows ; in the distance come priestly voices from the altar; men, women and children coining and going from the many shrines, all in daily garb; and sitting and pondering over it all I was greatly impressed with the solemnity of the scene. The lines of Grey came floating to me, "Not to the domes where crumbling arch and column attest the feebleness of mortal hand, but to that fane mo=t catholic and solemn which God hath planned." For, you know, this splendid structure is constantly crumbling away and will never be thoroughly completed, for when one part is quite done by that time another is going. The windows are costly, of different shades of glass, and all mosaic-work ; the paintings are of the different Bible characters from the beginning of the world. Adam lies on green grass (in one window), and from his body springs a tike ; on it are David, Solomon and hundreds of his descendants ; at last are seen the Holy Mother and the Child Christ. This picture covers one window. We went into the sacristy and saw the heads or skulls of the three wise men, all decorated with costly jewels and in a golden case ; also in a golden case a piece of the crown of thorns, a piece of Peter's chain when he was imprisoned, and many elegant jewels, diamond crosses, golden vases and like gifts from many of the kings of Germany. This cathedral will always live in my memory as a dream ; it was so grand and so wonderful, I can't believe that 1 have truly seen it. We also went into the church of St. Ursula, named after a princess of Brittain or Brittany. She married a German prince, but went to Rome to get the blessing of the Pope and also to convert her unbelieving husband to the Romish faith. On her way home the Huns, who then overran the country, murdered her. her husband, the Pope (who had journeyed n little way with them), and eleven thousand virgins of the company. The bones of these eleven thousand are displayed for a small sum to the traveler, and are in the sides of the church in niches. I longed to sail down the Rhine, as I've longed to see more of the great cities to which 1 am so near, but it was not to be. We gazed for the last time at the gieat cathedral as we went to the cars early in the morning, and with a trust I looked, hoping to see it again. We had a very comfortable journey from Cologne through Belgium and Holland, not slopping anywhere for more than half an hour at a time. The changes of country were interesting, in particular the streams and rivers with hundreds of canal boats, some drawn by women, which we saw in the Netherlands. And there the land is very low. The beauty of scenery ia France, which we read so much about, was all lost, for we journeyed through it in the dark night. Here in Paris we hive not been able to see very much as yet. We enjoyed a walk through the Luxemborg Garden, which is very extensive, with fine sanded walks, ponds of water with swans sailing about, statuary on every side. This garden belongs to a palace in which is a little museum of marble statuary and also pictures. The latter are by living artists, very beautiful landscapes, scenes from French history, and as a whole a beautiful collection. All my interestcentered in a picture which I have loved for years as an engraving, a farm-scene by Rosa Bonbeur. In front of it many artists were at work trying in vain to repeat it.

LEGGRE. This gentleman, for many years a Missionary of the London Missionary Society, and translator of the works of Confucius, is now on a visit to England. From an address, which he delivered at a school, we copy tbe following extracts which we are confident will be read with interest, as the attention of our readers is so frequently called to the Chinese, scattered over our islands. They come from a highly educated land.— "Education in China." This will form the main subject of my address. I might almost be, 1 suppose, the grandfather of the oldest of you, and yet I feel a measure of respect and awe in standing before you. A good many of you will remember what we are told about John Frebonius, one of the masters of the school which the boy Luther attended at Eisenach. He always raised his cap to his pupils, when he entered the schoolroom ; and when asked why he did so, he replied :—" There are among these boys men of whom God will one day make burgomasters, chancellors, doctors, and magistrates. Although you do not yet see them with the badges of their dignity, it is right that you should treat them with respect." This was well spoken by Frebonius, and, more than thirty years ago, I was delighted to find the same sentiment recorded of Confucius, the sage of China. " A youth," said he on one occasion, " is to be regarded with respect. How do we know that his future will not be equal to our present?" He then added, in words on which I may have something to say, ere I have done— If he reach the age of forty or fifty, and has not made himself heard* of, he will not be worth being regarded with respect." Well, you know that education is very much prized in China. It is much more prized in some of the provinces of that vast country than in others ; but 1 do not think I exaggerate in saying that to-duy there are more boys and students in schools and under masters in China than there of men, women, and children all together in Great Britain. I hold here in my hand a Chinese Primer, one of the first lesson books which boys have to learn when they go to school. Its author, a Mr. Wang Pih-haon, died in tbe year 1296, so that it must have been written fully 600 years ago. He prepared it for family use ; but it has long been taught all over the empire. There must be upwards of a hundred millions of Chinese now living who could repeat it all over from beginning to end. You see it is printed in large characters, the better to impress the form of each on the eye and mind, and it is in a - 1). JIL¥, 15.6 sort of doggTO rhyme, each line consisting compilations on the ancient rites, ceremoof six words, with a csesural pause exactly nies, arts, nnd music of China. The fifth in the middle, that it may be the more easily remembered. It is not long, and I will try to give you some idea of its contents. After some preliminary remarks to the effect that all men are good at first, and very much alike, and that it is their being educated or not which makes them differ as they subsequently do, and illustrating this by examples, the keynote of the treatise is struck in the following lines :— "Tbe child fed, but untaught. To the parent in shame; To teach, and not be strict, In tbe teacher is blame. If the boy do not learn, Very wrong sure is lie; If in youth he be idle, When old, wlmt will he be As the gem, when uncut, For nothing in good, So the man who's unlearned Knows not what be should." - Having thus opend his subject, the author sets forth the rudiments of Chinese learning ; good manners, filial piety, brotherly duty ; the elements of arithmetic; the more conspicuous heavenly bodies; the three bonds of society—ruler and subject, father and son, husband and wife; the names of the seasons, of the cardinal points, and of the five elements ; the five virtues of benevolence, righteousness, propriety, conscientiousness, and truthfulness; the six grains; the six animals good for food, including the horse and the dog; the seven passions ; the is the computation of ancient poems or odes, said to have been made by Confucius, and many of the pieces of which are really very interesting. The sixth is the history of his native state of Ivo, for 242 years, drawn up in short sentences by Confucius. It would hardly be worth reading, but for three commentaries and enlargements of it, made not long after the time of the siege, and with which the Primer says the student must also make himsplf familiar. One of them is as full of graphic details as Scott's "Tales of a Grandfather." When the student has got through these classical works, the Primer says he must turn himself to the five philosophers, some of them orthodox and some heterodox, partly comprehensible and partly incomprehensible. The latest of them lived and wrote in the first century of our era. Only one other labour is laid on the Chinese student, but it is a Herculean one. " When thoroughly up in the classics and philosophers," says Wang, "he must take the historians in hand ;" and he proceeds to give a bird's eye view of Chinese history from b. c. 2852 down nearly to his own time. Then the standard histories were seventeen. Now, bringing the records of the Empire down to the year 1644, when the present Tartar dynasty gained possession of it, they are twenty-four. I had my copy of them bound iv English style, in thick volumes, royal octavo size. How many volumes do you think they make? Only fifty-six A book as large as the last edition of the " Encyclopaedia Britannica" would hardly suffice to contain a complete translation of them. There is no method of education in the world that so tasks the memory as does the Chinese, and in the case of the majority of pupils, so far as I have been acquainted with them, it is simply a gigantic system of cram. Still, in those who have strong bodies nnd exceptionally strong minds, it develops men of a more than ordinary aruteness, often associated with a more than ordinary grasp of mind; while among the people generally it develops an appreciation of filial and fraternal duties of subordination, of what is proper and decent, and of industry and thrift, which no unprejudiced observer can regard without admiration. China has a history, a veritable history, extending nearly over 4000 yearc. No other nation has subsisted so long essentially unchanged, and growing upon the whole from century to century in resources and population. Various causes have contributed to this; and one of the most powerful among them has been the general education of the people. From time immemorial this was prized and inculcated in the country; and in the latter half oft our seventh century —about A. D. 631— the competitive system by the examination of literary candidates was established. Since that time learning has been the passport to eight instruments of music; the nine degrees of kinship; and the duties of the social relations—affection between parents and children, mutual accommodation between husband and wife, kindness on tbe part of the elder brother, and submissive consideration on the part of the younger; strict regard to age between elders and juniors generally; endeavours to promote one another's virtue between friends, respectfulness on the part of the ruler, and leal-heartedness on the part of the subject. These rudiments being supposed to be mastered, the pupil goes on to the higher school, and, through a very small portico of grammar, advances into the field of Chinese literature. Then he begins with a work on on filial piety and its duties, by Confucius, from which he proceeds to the Four Books, which are chiefly occupied with the sayings and doings of the doctrines of the sage. Some analogy has been fancied to exist between them and our four Gospels. The Primer contains a sentence or two about the matter and authorship of each. The boy learns to read all these books, and, in the course of years, to understand them more or less; and he has to commit them all to memory. When he has done his duty on them, he is prepared to go on to the higher classical books which Mr. Wang Pih-haon says ore six. The first is called the Book of Changes, to the meaning of which, after more than twenty years' study, I have hitherto failed to find the clue. The official distinction. second is the Book of Ancient Historical Documents, relating to events and individuals during a period of nearly 2,000 years, Bound Volumes at Reduced Price! though the latest document belongs to the WIIFj furnish bound volumes 7th century before Christ.

Thonghts on Experience in the Religious Life. READ BEFORE THE Y M. C. A. BY S. H. DOLE Many individuals, perhaps most, accept in childhood, (lie doctrines (might them then, whether ihey are liberal, orthodox, Romish, Mohan)modan or Budliist, and never alterwards trouble themselves to examine their creeds on their own merits. Such second hand believers are rarely strong or useful. And the safety of this very common method of receiving one's religious faith, depends purely upon the comparatively rare and accidental circumstance of being born and reared among those who are the fortunate possessors of unmixed religious truth. To those however whose religious principle is strong and deep and earnest, as well as to many who begin their religious life after childhood, there comes a time when faith in God and unseen things becomes too important, too personal, and too sacred a matter to be left to the assertion or argument of others, and they are led by an irresistable power to personally examine these questions, and to decide from their own earnest consciousness. Then it is that doubts come. They have gone so deep down toward the roots of belief that they meet the skepticism which strives for the mastery with belief at its very fountain head. Doubts haunt them night and day, and weigh Upon them with almost unbearable force. They suffer severe pain and anxiety, as what was to them solid ice cracks and breaks beneath their feet. It seems to them that all the old landmarks are sinking and the well known stars going out. Bold infidelity shows itself and offers its false, uncertain glimmer as a beacon light, and horrified and trembling they shrink from an apparently inevitable fate. But true to themselves, and true to God who they know by internal evidence exists somewhere, they persevere in their hard painful search for the truth, and never once stop to think of personal comfort, or the easy happiness of a cloistered and bolstered belief. At last the light is sure to come, glorious and rich and wonderful, a thousand times making up for the difficulty and suffering of the way. Light and strength which none but those who have struggled and agonized for it can know or understand. Some one has lately said truly. " There are many who do not believe enough to doubt." And I believe it expresses a real principle. Those who indolently receive their fajth from others without self unspottedfrom the world. taking the trouble of a personal examination of its merits and are satisfied, are not troubled with doubts, neither is their belief likely to be of much account in the great crusade that is to conquer the world. But those who bravely mean to achieve can hardly escape the many bristling weapons of skepticism ; they cluster around the sepulchre and the cross of Christ, as did the mighty armies of Saladin around Jerusalem, and only the weak and faint-hearted will seek to avoid the conflict and lose the opportunity of the glorious victory and the triumphal entry into ihe holy city of truth. A change has recently been made in the character of the monthly meeting of this Society, which it is hoped will be found advantageous. Hitherto the meetings have been held at the reading room of the Sailors' Home, and being chiefly of a routine nature, the attendance has been uncertainand small. It has been decided to hold the monthly meetings in future at the Lyceum, which has been kindly placed at the disposal of the Society by Mr. Waterhouse for that purpose. The first part of the evening is occupied with reports of officers, committees and with other business, after which an hour is to be devoted to a programme to be arranged by special committee. This programme will be varied as may be convenient, and will include the reading and discussion of original essays, miscellaneous selections of prose and poetry, and vocal and instrumental music. The object of this change is to bring the members more socially together once a month, and to provide for the encouragement of entertaining and intelligent intercourse amongst young men of similar tastes. Although the meetings are not public, each member has the privilege of inviting his friends, and by this means it is hoped that the membership of the Society will be increased ; and that strangers arriving here will have an early opportunity of forming acquaintances and friendship, which may be valuable to them hereafter. Every effort will be made to render the programme" " attractive, and it is sincerely hoped that the members will make it their special duty to attend the meetings regslarly. They are held on the third Friday of each month at half-past seven. George Williams of London—Our Young Men's Guest. The sname of George Williams is well known and greatly honored among ail familiar with the work of Young Men's Chris- tian Associations ihe world over, and those of our readers interested in this good cause will be glad to know that he is expecting to visit America this summer. Thirty-five years ago, Mr. Williams came to London as a young man to begin business life as a clerk in one of the largest houses in the drapery trade. His rare talents, industry and fidelity have now secured him a foremost place among the merchants of that metropolis. But he was also in early life a devoted disciple of Christ. Among the hundred clerks with whom he was associated thirty years ago, his influence as a Christian was at once felt. In conversation, by example and prayer, he led one after another to Christ, till soon a small band of clerks in that house were statedly meeting together to encourage each other in prayer and effort on behalf of their associates. Young men from other houses joined them, and on the 6th of June, 1844, at No 12 St. Paul's Churchyard, ihey decided to form themselves into a Society " for improving the spiritual condition of young men engaged in the drapery and other trades." In 1851 some twenty-five branches had been organized in the leading cities of Great Britain, and in that year the good seed was planted in American soil, Young Men's Christian Associations being organized in Montreal, Boston, and in other cities. Mr. Williams has continued during these thirty years the devoted, fostering friend of these Associations. He has attended faithfully the General Conferences—seven in number—held since 1855 in the various capitals of Europe. But he crosses the Atlantic for the first time this month. He will be cordially welcomed by the many friends who know by experience the cheerful courtesy which he has ever extended to members of the American Associations whenever they have visited the parent Society in London. In Toronto (July 12-16) the International Convention, at its twenty-first annual meeting, will rejoice in this year of its majority to hear his voice for the first time. Among the multitude of visitors coining to our land this season none will be more cordially welcomed by the Christian young men of the country than the founder of the Associations which bear their name, and have done so much to promote the welfare of the generation to which they belong. Mr. Williams, while acting as Treasurer of the Young Men's Christian Association, is also Chairman of the City Mission Board, and is officially connected with many of the most useful charities in London. �57 FTSUPHLOEMN RIEND HONOLULU, JULY, 187€.

Five pastors have been dismissed from their pastorates ; two of whom are now without pastoral charges. Three ministers of the gospel have been elected to and sit in the present Legislature,—two pastors of churches, and one without pastoral charge.

This is the case with the Seminary at Lahaina Iuna, Maui, as well as the Boarding School for boys at Hilo, Hawaii. The Hilo Boarding School has been blest with a religious awakening during the past year, which has resulted in some ten of the pupils having been admitted to church mem- bership. THEOLOGICAL SEMINARY. The teachers of this institution have been the same as in the previous year, viz : Rev. B. W. Parker, Chairman of the Faculty ; Rev. D. Baldwin, M. D, and Rev. H. H. Parker, Teachers. These Teachers have performed faithfully tbe duties assigned them. A new term of instruction in the Seminary commenced on tbe Ist of October, 1875. During the meeting of the Hawaiian Evangelical Association in June, 1875, an examination of the pupils of the Seminary was held in the presence of a committee ap- �THE FRIEND, .111... 60 1876.

The committee also say, " Let us be grateful to 'the Lord of the harvest' for the establishment of this Theological Seminary, and for His care over it."
