NEW YEAR-1878.
Most cordially we wish our readers and
subscribers, on ship and shore, —A Happy
New Year. If space allowed, we should
indulge in remarks naturally suggested by
the returning of Christmas and New Year's,
but especially by the ending of the first century since the Hawaiian Islands were introduced to the civilized world by their renowned discoverer, Captain Cook. Most sincerely do we regret that our English fellow
residents have not made their arrangements
for a grand centennial celebration. It is a
date (January ISth, 1778) which forms a
most memorable event in the history of the
Hawaiian Islands. We have only to go
back in imagination one century, and we
find our islands as unknown to the civilized
world as the territory on some unknown
planet. On our part, as publisher and editor
of the "oldest paper in the Pacific," the
best contribution we can make to the occasion is our Chronological Table.

The late editor of the Gazette, Dr.
Rogers, publishes his valedictory in the issue
of the 26th ult. Although he has wielded
the editorial pen but a few weeks, yet he
has certainly conducted the paper with
marked ability, and we regret his retirement
from the Gazette.
Any party prepared to furnish a pair
of native Hawaiian geese, for shipment to
the United States, will please communicate
with the editor.

Judos Caton, of Illinois.—By the last steamer
from San Francisco this gentleman arrived, and ii
at tbe hotel. He was for many years Chief Justice
of the Supreme Court of that State, retiring in 1864.

RAMBLES IN THE OLD WORLD-No. 12.
Elberfeld, November 10, 1877.
The winter is really coming. Crisp, brilliant days and radiantly tinted forests are
crowning the year. The hail is even now
rattling at the window. Last week I made
a little excursion on the Rhine banks, doing
some pedestrianism, now and then, going as
far as Coblentz, and visiting the palace of the
Empress. 1 have a great deal to tell yet
about all the fine things that 1 saw, but 1
must defer them until another month. In
this my second visit to Bonn, I had a very
pleasant, interview with Prof. Christlieb in
his pleasant home on the Grunerweg. He
is a fine looking man, with a strong intense
face, a noble head crowned with dark hair
turning slightly grey. His face and figure
are hardly German, seeming more delicate
and nervous. His English is perfect, and
he makes himself most agreeable to his listener. Here in Bonn he is exceedingly popular as a lecturer and preacher, and is one of
the ablest professors in the large Faculty,
acting this year as the Dean of the great
University. His cordiality and friendliness
were most marked. A son of Mrs. H. B.
Stowe has been studying here. 1 like Bonn
exceedingly in some respects. Tbere ia a
very decidedly literary tone about it. But I
want to tell you about a little visit I made
at Neuwied last week where two tons of Mr.
L, of Honolulu, are in School. It lay right
on my way, and 1 had a sort of yearning to
see the two little fellows so far away from
home, and very glad am I. that I went. It
did us all good to say—Aloha. Neuwied is
a pretty little village on the banks of tbe
Rhine, a portion of whose inhabitants are
Moravians. There are two large schools
here,—one for boys and one for girls, under
the care of the brothers and sisters. The
boy's school is in a splendid large building,
with fine play-grounds, and is, I should
judge, very well conducted. I saw the Director, a very pleasant gentleman, wbo was
kind and obliging. The boys knew me immediately, and we spent pert ola day together. They tell roe, that they are happy
and like it here. They are gentlemanly lit*
tie fellows and seem to be doing well. But
their hearts,—a good part of them are where
mine is—in Honolulu. Please accept my
most cordial greetings for the New Year,

�til FRIEND, JAft D ART

which as being a year of singular historical
interest to our sunny Islands, will, 1 trust,
prove a fitting crown to the century it completes.
But I must return to my trip down the
Rhine, I think we had reached,
THE LUTHER MONUMENT AT WORMS.

"Tell your master," said Luther, to a
messenger from Spalatin, " that though
there should be as many devils in Worms as
there are tiles on the roofs of the houses, I
would go," and go be did, and now people
come to see where this marvelous man spoke
such great words as few men before or since
have dared to utter; they seem to give the
very town itself after this long lapse of time,
a (moral) grandeur, which scarcely any other
in Europe possesses. "They ring like a
clarion through the years." "I cannot choose
but adhere to the word of God, which has
possession of my conscience, nor can I possibly, nor will I ever, make any recantation,
since it is neither safe nor honest to act contrary to conscience. Here Itake my stand;
I cannot do otheneise. God be my help !
Amen." The old city of Worms, always
interesting by reason of its associations with
the Reformation, is now rendered doubly so
by the splendid monument to Luther, which
was erected here in 1868. It is an elaborate and interesting affair, deeply so to every
student of that sublime struggle which the
Monk of Erfurt headed. On a noble pedestal of granite is a superb bronze statue of
Luther; in one hand a Bible, to which he
points with the other; his face turned upwards, that strong; courageous face, which
nothing in the Universe but the anger of
God could blanch. The sunlight fell full
and free upon it, as if in benediction ! The
central figure is surrounded by statues Waldus, the Frenchman; Wickliffe, the Englishman; Huss, the Bohemian; and Savonarola,
the Italian; all of heroic size. Many other
statues, medallions and quotations from
Luther go to make up the monument, which
is a splendid epitome of the Reformation in
Germany with suggestions of othercountries.
There is a concentration of thought, a massing of grand historical facts, which is
strangely impressive. It is Daubigne's

the honor of his name, either directly or
indirectly as the reoent " Oaxton " celebration in England will testify. The incalculable good to which this invention has given
rise, is more than enough to glorify the
names of those who have been in any way
connected with it. I thiuk they would be
slightly surprised could they see our weekly
and daily papers, which come pouring in
upon us now with telegrams,— "special correspondent," letters and leaders about tbe terrible Bastern war. Mayence or German

history. I was especially interested in visiting hew the Eigelstein," an ancient mound

of masonry erected by the Snd and 4th Legions in honor of Drusus, son-ia-law of Augustus, who was killed by a fall from his
horse." Suetonius makes mention of the
monument. A staircase has been placed in
it, by which I ascended to tbe summit and
had a view of the city in the twilight. What
a long, long time it seemed back 10 the days
when the Roman sentinels paced back and
forth, near perhaps, where 1 was standing!
It is impossible to give in a letter, and especially weeks after, those innumerable little
scenes and incidents which make a visit to
a city especially pleasant to a tourist. Enumeration of cathedrals, of churches, of museums become wearisome to the narrator and
most certainly so to the reader. It is in
those unanticipated impressions; in the accidental discovery of beauties which strike
you alone, in the sensations which come
wilh the sight of some object or scene which
has been in name familiar to you from
childhood, in the thrill sudden and delicious,
that some sculptured 'marble, or radiant
coloring or hushed chant, gives you, that
forms the under tone of your thoughts as
you are endeavoring to give another a description of your travels. You may be correct in
all points of fact, but there seems such a
deadness in them, a something lacking which
you yearn to give and which eludes you.
Goethe I think it was, who had the habit of
taking little sketches of scenes which struck
him particularly, and then afterwards writing from these. If there was but some subtle way by which we could chain for others
those fleet intangible impressions which
come to us at some memorable moments in
our lives! *
" AM RHEIN ; AM RHEIN."
In some caves and winding valleys we
read that the effects of the "echo " are surpassingly fine. That the slightest whisper
is increased sometimes to a shout, that a
word let fall comes back to the listening ear
in a thousand mocking tones, and that a
strain of music is heard long after, sweeping
on from point to point, flooding the air with
its melody, lingering as if unwilling ever to
cease. There are subtler echoes, for ears
attuned to catch their sound in every scene
which has been rendered famous by great or
renowned deeds, or which has been the
birthplace of poetry and art. or spiritualized
by the presence of joy and sorrow, of faith
and devotion. One of these enchanted
scenes is where the long, fair River Rhine
sweeps onward to the sea. How vibrant the
air seems with countless echoing voices,
some so far and faint, that only those who
know and love the river and its history can
detect them at all, and these only in that
hush which comes when the hum and murmur of the present dies away ; then there
are stronger and firmer tones, rising and
falling in perfect cadence, countless melodies,
joyous and sombre, shouts and buglenotes
and cries rent from out some far off" agony,
and ripples of laughter. No other river in
all tbe world can vie with it in poetic and
historic association. From its early home
in the bosom of tbe glacier, past its crystal
leap at Schaffhausen, past ancient cities and
crag-cresting feudal castles, past sunny vineslopes and white villages, does it hold its
way to the bleak northern sea where it pours
its warm rich tide. He who attempts to de-

"

.

scribe the Rhine, (and who does not ?) fails
in the attempt. "Todo it well one should
write like a King." Dear it is, not only to
the German heart, but to that greater heart,
which throbs in all those, who love the beautiful. The echoes grow clearer and clearer
as the steamer cuts the quiet waters. You
live over the days the Germans and Goths,
the Gauls and Huns played each their part
on these now quiet shores. The castles are
no longer in ruins ; a brave array of knights
and fair ladies meets you at every bend in
the river, and the sound of martial music
comes floating over the water.
Everybody sees the Rhine—it is one of
the things to be " done," you know by
English and Americans, and the former people especially are to be met on it in small
armies. lam not one to shun the sound of
my mother tongue in a foreign land as some
travellers seem to be desirous of doing. 1
like to meet our own people, and I find that
as a general thing, they are as interesting
and cultivated people as one does meet.
From Mayence to Cologne is a charming
sail. You take from the former city the
boat in the morning and you are in the latter before the dusk has commenced to creep
into its cathedral. The Rhine boats are
immensely comfortable, and it is easier to
dream and dream under a good awning than
under the fierce rays of the sun. People
settle down calmly to be comfortable. Some
are so prosaic as to keep little tables before
them, with an/thing but little bottles on
them. Some armed with opera glasses and
map keep rushing from one side of the boat
to the other. These as a general rule are
Anglo Saxons. There are sentimental
couples, and sedate couples; specimens of
those "terrible children" who are always
just on the point of tumbling in to this famous river and who keep their nurses and
governesses, who would like a quiet moment
tor the beauty of the banks, in a constantly
agitated state. German gentlemen with the
inevitable spectacles and German Frauleins
with rosy cheeks. All bent for one day on
enjoying themselves.
There is a wonderfully familiar look About
everything. Bingen for instance. "Fair
Bingen on ihe Rhine." The poem which
no body reads without a little lump in his
throat, has had an immense deal to do with
making the place famous. It must have
seemed very fajr to the soldier dying in Algiers, fairer, perhaps, than it did to us tourists to whom Bingen was nothing more than
any other city on the Rhine. Then Bishop
Hatto's " Mouse Tower." It requires a
lively imagination to picture the uncomfortably wicked old Bishop, whose sins brought
him to such a (legendary) end in that little
tower from which signals are thrown out to
the passing steamer. The grand ruin of
Rheinlels, the twin castles, •• The Brothers,"
about which tradition has woven such a sad
story, taking you back to the days of the
crusaders, and Stolzenfels, with the many

interesting castles marked by broken arches
hovering among the trees, clinging to the
edge of cliffs, which rise out of the waters
below, dawn one after another upon you.
The river narrows, abrupt banks buried
in foliage rise on either side, and all is
beautiful at this moat picturesque point
in this most picturesque river. We pass.

THE FRIEND, JANUARY,
ed in safety the " Lurlei"; no siren
notes drew us into the fatal whirlpool with
their maddening "witchery. Do you think
the railway tunnel near at hand has frightened her away 1 Coblentz, proud of the
embrace of the lovely Moselle and Rhine,
and guarded by the frowning Ehrenbreitstein, " The Gibraltar of the Rhine," stays
us in our course for a little time. The sentimental couples before alluded to find
food for thought as we pass " Rolandseck,"
whence went forth the valiant knight Roland to win the Holy City from the infidels,

happy

in

the love of the lovely Hildegunde,

his betrothed. Rumor false, as is often the
case, brings word that the brave Roland is
no more and the disconsolate Hildegunde
becomes the bride of heaven," and buries
herself and her woe in the cloister near at
hand. But fortunately or unfortunately the
Rhenish chivalry had not lost Roland who
returns to claim his love. But alas ! this is
impossible. So he builds the castle on the
height, of which now but one arch remains
and upon which the " sentimentalists " are
now gazing, and from this vantage ground
he catches glimpses of his betrothed, passing
to and fro to her devotions. But at last
even this is denied him and death claims the
sad nun, Hildegunde. " From that moment
Roland never spoke again; one morning his
sole attendant found him rigid and lifeless,
his glassy eye still turned towards the convent chapel"!! !!

"

BONN,

The birth-place of Beethoven and one of the
most celebrated university towns in Germany, skirts the river, where—
The castled crags of Drachenfels
Frown o'er the wide and winding Rhine,
Whose breast of waters broadly swells
Between the banks which bear the vine;
And hills all rich with bloasom'd trees.
And fields which promise corn and wine,
And scattered oities crowning these.
Whose far-while walls along them shine,
Have strew'd a scene which I could see
With double joy wert thou with me."

"

The University buildings cover an immense space and were formerly an old
Palace. The trees which front them and
the beautiful grassy open space were formerly in the palace grounds. One of the most
glorious avenues I ever saw of chesnuts,
stretches offfrom the lower town towards the
chemical laboratories, the observatory, etc.
Here the son of the crown-prince of Germany, the grandson of Queen Victoria, has
recently commenced his university studies.
There are some eight hundred students
in attendance with about a hundred professors, Professor Christlieb of whom I
have spoken to you before, I think, being
this year the Dean of the Faculty. Bonn
has become of late years a very favorite
place of residence for English people, and
besides the Church of England there is also

a congregation of Scotch Presbyterians.
Bishop Reinkens of the old Catholic party
has here his home, and here some of the
meetings which have marked the progress of
that movement, have taken place. The
town lies on the Rhine which widens to a
large river, and offin the distance loom the
picturesque seven mountains But Bonn is
rendered especially interesting from the fact
that it was the birth-place of Beethoven,

probably the greatest musician of any age, a
name which any city should be proud to
number on the roll of its citizens. It is a
safe thing to know that you are in just the
right place before you indulge in your raptures at having discovered scenes which
cradled the infancy of your hero. Certainly
it was not from lack of effort on my part if
I failed to find where the gifted musician,
who was to bring with him heavenly music
and melody into a discordant world, first
opened his baby eyes towards the latter part
of the last century. His father was a tenorsinger to the Elector and at the time of his
great son's birth is said to have been living
on one of the streets which now lies hidden
in the crowded heart of the city; it may
have been my own stupidity but I was forced
to leave without finding the house. Certainly some of the people seem to have very
shadowy ideas as to the shrine I was seeking, and I thought one fellow at least spoke
the truth when he said very pleasantly, " He
wasn't there at the time," which may account for his ignorance. But I did have the
satisfaction of nibbling a bit of sandwich in
a restaurant in the Rheingasse, in a house
where certainly the Beethoven family once
lived. To what " base uses a great man's
home may be put in time is "certainly attested by this dingy little place, where some
men were wrangling in anything but a musical way over their cards. In the place "
near the fine old cathedral, girdled "by trees,
which have now strewn the ground with
their leaves, stands the bronze statue of Beethoven which was inaugurated there not so
very many years ago in the presence of the
Queen of England. There are few who
have not grown familiar with this powerful
face in busts and engravings. It is not a
winning face; there is a solitariness and
sternness in it as of a man who must have
Jived apart from other men, " hearing in his
soul" a music which even he could not interpret to his fellow-beings. Beethoven left

this city of Bonn when he was yet a young
man, and he should rather hereafter be viewed, not in his relationship to any one town
but rather as a sovereign in that world of
harmony which knows no terrestrial boundaries. He struggled with a terrible might
against the fatal doom of deafness, which
while he was in the very prime of life, slowly and steadily and relentlessly shut him
out from the world. It would seem almost
as if it must needs be so, as if in no other
way could he have fulfilled his mission.
Shut out from the rush and turmoil of life,
from its countless discordant cries he had
now leisure to listen to those celestial melo-

dies which floated unhindered, not to his
human ear, but to his waiting soul. He
lived not only figuratively but really much
apart from men. In his long lonely walks,
which no extremes of weather ever interrupted he composed within ,'he music, which on
his return he committed to writing. In the
library at Bonn I saw just a fragment of a
score of his, a mere fragment, but interesting
as coming from his hand. It does us good
now and then in our enjoyment of the fruits
of other men's labors to put aside the splendid lustre which hangs about their names
and look into the real life which throbs and
suffers and groans oftentimes under the purple and ermine of outward triumph. The

songs which we sing are sometimes the
groan of a broken heart, and from the lonely
" of a few lives issues that
" Gethsemanes and
which glorifies
enriches the world.
We are near our journey's end. Here the
boat is at the landing, the day's vision is now
a memory, a-rushing and crowding, two rows
of eager hackmen, and we are in the venerable city ol Cologne, in the shadow of whose
cathedral we shall sleep and dream over
again—" Our day on the Rhine."
F. W. Damon.

Michigan University.
It always affords us great delight to hear
trom our youth, who have left the islands
for higher institutions of learning in America and Europe. By a late mail we received
an interesting letter from young Arthur P.
Peterson, who is now studying Law at Ann
Arbor, Michigan. We copy as follows, under date of November 27th :
"Ann Arbor is a city of 10,000 inhabitants, and is supported mostly by the students of the University of Michigan. The
University is not as well known as it should
be, as they do not advertise as other colleges
do. In size it probably is the second or
third in America. It contains this year between twelve and thirteen hundred students,
not including the preparatory department.
In rank they claim that it is next to Vale,
or about on an equal with Amherst. The
Law Department, which I am attending, is
the largest, and one of the best in the country. It has nearly four hundred would-be
lawyers in it.
no church connected with the

nearly every Sunday afternoon, some one of the professors hold service. Last Sunday Dr. Cocker gave us a
very interesting sermon from the 13th verse
of the J2th chapter of Ecclesiastes, in which
he reviewed the whole book step by step,
showing under What circumstances the book
was written, and the mistaken idea which
many had of this book."
We would merely add that Dr. Cocker, to
whom reference is made, is a professor in the
University. He is an Englishman, and
many years ago was a Methodist preacher
in the Australian Colonies, who will be remembered by many in the South Seas. He

has become somewhat eminent as an author
and lecturer. He is the author of a volume
entitled " Christianity and Greek Philosophy," published by the Harpers of New
York. It was our privilege in 1869 to hear
a most interesting address from him in Delaware, Ohio, on " The Brotherhood of the

Human Race."

On Thursday evening last, a happy meeting
took place at tbe Bethel Church, preluded by bymnody. and in tbe building adjoining, tbe little folks,
and indeed tbeir elders aa well, subsequently enjoyed tbe pleasant time-honored spectacle of a
beavily loaded Christmas Tree." tbe distribution
of whose multifarious fruits afforded an evidently
genuine gratification to tbe recipients. None
seemed happier than tbe worthy pastor himself
(the Rev. Dr. Damon) in the midst of bis flock, on
the festive occasion. On tbe previous Monday
evening, a similar Christmas fete occurred at tbe
Lyceum, for tbe children of tbe Sunday school
connected with Fort Street Church. The little

Faith and Prayer.
Faith is the first step in a sinner's salvation, and prayer the second. Faith shows
us our need, and leads to prayer as its remedy. Faith shows the infinite fondness of
God's grace, and prayer opens the door to
receive it. Through faith and prayer we
are made the full partakers of the plenitude
of his infinite love. " God shall supply all
your need according to riches in glory by
Christ Jesus."
The swearing sceptic may ssy: " I do
not see that the christians are any better off
than any one else, but it is because he has
not eyes to see. God leads his children to
glory in a way He sees best and not in a way
of our own.''

Cook's Lectures.
—"These are wonderful lectures. We bless
God for raising up such a champion for his
truth as Joseph Cook. Few could hunt
down Theodore Parker and all that race of
misbelievers, as Mr. Cook has done. He
has strong convictions, the courage of his
convictions, and force to support his courage.
In reasoning, the infidel party have here met
their match. We know of no other man
one-half so well qualified for the peculiar
service of exploding the pretensions of modern science, as this great preacher. Some
men shrink from this spiritual wild-boar
hunting, but Mr. Cook is as happy in it as

PASSENGERS.

Larami to San Francisco, and forwarded by
our Hawaiian Consul Mr. Severance to the
islands, that the Rev. Mr. Pogue was returning with his daughter, and had reached
that point on the overland railroad, when
sickness compelled him to leave the oars and
seek repose, and there after a short illness
he died, but particulars are not given.
In recording his death we feel fully authorized from our personal acquaintance of
over thirty years and knowledge of his missionary career, to bear the most unqualified
testimony to his fidelity as missionary of the
American board of Missions. His labors at
Koloa, Kauai; Ktylakekua and Kau, Hawaii; Lshainaluna, Maui, and Honolulu,
fully entitle him to all which may be written
in honor of his memory. A friend has kindly furnished the following sketch, which we
fully endorse and much prefer to anything
which we can prepare :

to whom he always felt tbat be owed much in the
preparation for hii life work. l)r. L. Beeober too,
wai his Isithful teaober in theology. For both of
these gentlemen be ever entertained great respect
and afleotion. It waa St Lane tbat bis missionary
interest wh developed, and four olassmates—Messrs.
Busbnell and Campbell wentto West Africa, Mr. f.
11. Andrews and himself oame here, leaving borne
within a abort time of each other aod all then unmarried. Mr. Campbell died before reaching bis
post, and now Mr. fiuabnell alone remain, at West
Afrioa. Of his missionary labors I need soaroely
speak. He was naturally very retiring and sensitive,
aud very few, even of his friends, knew of tbe deep
struggles through wbiob be passed in bis life here.
Whati-ver be felt to be bis duty he would do unflinchingly, oost him what it might. I may say bis
life was emphatically one of prayer, rarely ever
leaving bis study lor a meeting, recitation, or business of sny kind, without seeking strength from
above aod as bs returned borne, it wss first to tbe
oonseorated spot. His labors whether as paator or
teuoher were arduous, for he entered into them with
bis wbole soul. He was suiotly honest and conscientious in business matters, and liberal in jndgment of bis fellow beings; charitable of the failings
of others, and ready to check anything like gossip
or unkind words of others in conversation with his
family. He had great fear of getting into debt. He
gave freely to heuevolent objects and in many oases
so quietly tbat his own family knew not of it until
afterwards. It has been stated that his death was
sudden, but it wss not so. He bad had a cough for
many years. The dsy he read bis report and gave
in his resignation to tbe Evangelioal Association last
June, bis physician said be should not be surprised
if be did not live a week, and we all felt tbat be was
too feeble when he left borne to undertske tbe journey alone. He bas been breaking down for years.

—Soon after his arrival at these islands
he married Miss Maria Whitney, daughter
of the late Rev. Samuel Whitney of Waimea, Kauai. He leaves a widow and four
children, two sons and two daughters, —to
mourn his death.
