Every possible demonstration of a nation's grief and sorrow has been of people, who manifested by mourn for their noble, honored, beloved and dead President. Not only America mourns but the whole civilized world manifests its profound sympathy in this season of a nation's sorrow.

"Showers on her Kings Barbaric pearl and gold." it was a question with me ot not seeing India at all, or of seeing it at the most trying and unpleasant time of the year, namely, the " Hot Season,'' when no one thinks of coming to India for pleasure; and when those who are condemned to remain here speak of existence as a burden. But to lose perhaps the only opportunity I might have in life of seeing an Empire—one of the most interesting and remarkable in the world— was something which I could not well bring myself to do. Hence, I determiped to try to see as much of the country and its varied peoples as my time and the season would permit And I ahull never cense to be grateful that I have been enabled to do so. I found the prophecied difficulties largely exaggerated. My mornings and evenings in India have been rich harvest-times to roe— when a thousand curious, and suggestive and instructive sights have proved to me that he who visits India visits a land unrivalled in picturesque elements, and offering in point of historic interest, of artistic attainments, of natural peculiarities and religious creed*, the widest opportunities for thought and study. In the letters which 1 send you, however. 1 can scarcely do more than trace in the most rapid manner the outline of my tour, which is far from a satisfactory thing for me to do when I consider the importance of the subject.

The light-hued waters were dotted with countless small native boats, with great spreading sails, which, catching the wind, dipped towards the waves, and then dieted away like birds on the wing. All along the shore were graceful lines of tufted palm and cocoanut trees, reminding us that we were in the tropics In a short time we were amid the grouped masts of the shipping and the long lines of the large ocean and lesser cossting steamers. I wonder more is not said about the situation of Bombay. There are few sights in the world more beautiful th»n that which this city presents —lying partly on islands, and partly on the main land —lifting itself.'like a sort of Eastern Venice, from the waves, and more beautiful than its rival in the added charms of mountains and tropical vegetations. All this one might, perhaps, expect to find ; but 1 fancy that, unless one Ims been beforehand prepared for it, that the superb line of magnificent modern public buildings which loom up above the greenfringed shore will be for a time a great and delightful surprise. In the first moments, after landing, I found no little difficulty in realizing on what favored shore I had been cast. Just before me was a' strikinglybeautiful structure, richly and ornately ornamented, and constructed in the most pilutial manner. And I found my surprise in no way diminished on being told that this was the " Sailors' Home." A visit later on proved to me that here certainly a palace is opened to seamen. Royal guests of the city would be given a fur less splendid abode. 1 rejoiced with all my heart that here at least, after long and stormy voyagings, the toilers " of the deep " could find a home so beautiful and comfortable. If surroundings have an influence on the-man, then every sailor who changes his close and ill-kept ship quarters for these spacious and airy rooms, these broad verandahs, and blooming, fragrant tropical gardens, must find in them an inand inspiration to n pure and right ig. Further from the port lie other live buildings—public Government offices, Post Office, the University, with its urately ornamented " Hall" and splendid tower; the Courts and other edifices, low of no European city, unless it be ins, where one sees n finer group of em structures. Certainly the British has been here represented in an imperial Bombay ts an immense city, with six :ven hundred thousand inhabitants. Its rth as an important commercial centre been comparatively recent, and very i, and largely owing to the opening of Suet Canal. Among the most interestof the inhabitants in this most cosmoan city are the Paraees—the descendants ocient Persian Fire-worshippers—who ago took up up their abode in this part dia. They are a most enterprising and ressive people, and many of them are ng the foremost and wealthiest merta of the city. They are paying much ition to education, and the position of women is much superior to that of Eastern females. The men have fine, ligent, expressive faces and most agreemanners. They still adhere to their religion, and have their temples in the where the fire is kept ever burning. t 1881. The Parsees, instead of burning their dead, as do the Hindoos, expose them on a high, lofty structure called the "Tower of Silence," just outside the city, where the bodies remain till the elements and the •' fowls of the air " have done their work, and left the bare skeleton for interment. The native portion of the city covers a great extent, and to one just arriving in India presents many peculiar and picturesque sights, though it is more Europeanized than some of the cities of the interior. One of the real ornaments of the city is its Market,'' " where the flower and fruit display is especially fine. About the main building are beautiful gardens, kept up in the best style, where the vines, and palms, and gorgeous blossoms of the tropics combine to form a most brilliant and fascinating picture. Bombay is famous for its mangoes, which are here to be found of »n unrivalled size and flavor The great variety is almost bewildering ; and an artist would delight in the great golden heaps over which the turbtnned sellers preside in such a picturesque way. We would do well at the islands, where the mangoe flourishes so finely, to introduce some of these choice varieties, which 1 think are nalive to Bombay. The European anstocr.cy of the city lives, for a portion of the year nt least, on n long tongue of hind running fur out into the sea, on whose farthest extremity is situated the Government House," the residence of the "Governor of the Bombay Presidency. The long avenue of cool, luxuriously-comfortable bungalows, half-buried away under a glorious bower of tropical leafage and bloom, presents a most charming appearance. From the heights uf Malabar Hill, as this portion of the city is called, the views over the great city are wonderfully fine, especially towards sunset. You look over a great, green expanse of palms The monumental pile of public buildings to which 1 have alluded above, grace toe opposite shore, from which sweeps towards us the crescent-curve of the hay, where the peaceful waters of the Indian Ocenn give now no hint of all the possibilities of storm which they hold in their green depths. Back of this is the great city, with its lofty houses and quaint and varied archi- tecture. But the excursion par excellence to be made, during a visit to Bombay, is to the " Caves of Elephanta," lying on one of the Islands in the bay. These are in reality ancient Brahminical temples, cut out of trie solid rock of the mountain side, and are of very great antiquity, and are still in a tolerably fair state of preservation. They consist of spacious halls, with supporting columns, elaborately carved and ornamented. The capitals are formed of huge elephants' heads, cut out of the rock. On all the walls are images of various gods, some of them grotesque in the extreme, and other fashioned with very considerable artistic skill. The view out on the blue bay, and towards the Islands covered with palms, is extremely fine. A continual twilight like gloom reigns in these temples, which is singularly in contrast with the bright glory of the sun-lit world, without their wails. There are in Bombay many important schools and colleges, and in many ways one can see that European civilization is making itself felt here. Still, the Parsee and Hindv temples, and Mohammedian mosques rise side by side with Christian churches, and old faiths and traditions and superstitions have a mighty power here, though there is reason to believe that theso are being slowly undermined Short as Was my stay in Bombay. I left the city with regret. Its broad avenues bordered with beautiful trees, its fine huildings and monuments, and busy, bustling life, with its varied and picturesque coloring, I shall not soon forget. AN OLD INDIAN STATE AND ITS CAPITAL, The short time which I could aliow my- self for India, did not permit me to see many points which I should have been very glad to have included in my programme of travel. But, fortunately, by taking the overland route to Calcutta, with some excursions from the main line one is enabled to see the most important and interesting cities of tne Empire. Availing myself f..r the first part of my journey of n recently opened railway. I had a most excellent opportunity of seeing a part of India which has until recently been closed to the general traveling public. The progress which railroads have made in India is something truly astonishing. The whole country is covered with a net-work of ironroads, which enable the traveller to visit nearly oil parts of India with the greatest ease. 1 know of no country where the conveniences of railway travel are greater than here, unless it be the United States. Yon can cross all the w«y from Bombay to Calcutta or Madras by rail. The interior states are being all connected hy railroads, and you can go almost to the frontiers of Afghanistan and Cashmere, and to the base of the lofty Himalayas in luxuriously comfortable railway carriages. Leaving Bombay, our road led first through the fertile and populous territory of Guzerat, lying along the ocean. We crossed the stately Nerbudda, of the sacred rivers of the Hindu, in the early morning. From the lofty height of the magnificent bridge, spanning this noble river, we caught fine glimpses of its waters. The hush of the night, the beauty of the summer sky in which a waning moon shone with calm and peaceful radiance, and the grand, onwartl sweeping tide of the great river, combined to produce an effect as impressive as it was pleasing. At Ahmedabad, I broke the journey for a day, and found much to interest me in the native life of the streets and bazaars, and in the fine old ruins of graceful mosques, which were built originally hy the Mohammedan Kings of Guzerut. Bordering upon Guzerat are the native states of Rajputana, and the few days which I spent in passing through them, and especially in one of them, Jeypore. were most interesting. Of these states Sir Richard Temple, in his recent work, " India in 18S0," speaks as follows : •' A large congeries of states is formed under the name of Rajputana or Rajasthan, of which the principal are, Udeypur, Jyepur, and Jodhpur. These Rajput chiefs have, next to the Brahmins, the purest blood in* India. In antiquity of descent they rank peerless among the native sovereigns ; the pink and flower of Indian heraldry is acknowledged to be with them. During the earlier Mohammedan invasions they won imperishable fame by deeds like those of the defenders of oie * �THE FRIEND, OCTOBER, Ssragossa. of Antwerp, or of Londonderry : human heart beats in the same warm, lov* and in their hill forts were heaped up hec- ing, brotherly way, in the East as in the atombs of men slain for the fatherland.

Idolatry as seen her* in India, is indescribably disgusting. The public gardens are said to be the finest in India. They were laid out nt a very great expense, and are marvels of beauty. 1 am finding constantly old friends in the flowers and shrubs and trees of India, from which country they have nrobab'y been introduced into our Islands. But here many of them flourish with a luxuriance which they scarcely show in their adopted home. The green open spaces of the gardens, seen at evening, covered with crowds of brightly dressed people, presents a very beautiful appearance. I visited the palaces and gardens of the Maharajah, where one sees many costly and beautiful things, but very much, also that is scarcely in keeping with refined taste. Behind the gardens is an immense tank where a large number of crocodiles are kept, and they seem to find life very enjoyable basking in the sunshine. In another part of the city are cages of splendid tigers and leopards, caught in the vicinity. The jungle is said to be infested with them. One tiger, a '• man-eater." had been captured in a huge cage, the day before our v sit. He seemed to realize that he was conquered, and glared at us in a sullen way. In connection with the Palace ot the King, are the Zenana, or appartments of the Queens and ladies, which, of course, are not shown. These unhappy individuals have the rather doubtful pleasure of peeping out the world through finely latticed windows. The first day of my visit to Jeypore happened to be on the birthday of the Queen of England. Now, though this is a native state, with its own ruler, England has her Political Agent here, as resident, who is a man of very great importauce, and seems, after all, to be virtually the ruler, The glove may be of velvet, but certainly the grasp of the hand is that of an iron one. My kind friends told me that I had arrived at just the best lime of all the year, and that I must be sure to go with them in the afternoon, to the garden party at the Resi" dency," which promised to be a very brilliant affair. And so indeed it was I might have been a very long time in India and not seen so much of India as in that one afternoon. It wis the Inst public and official appearance of the Political Agent, as he was to leave the next week for England retiring from a position which he had efficiently filled for mnny years. The Residency is a splendid palatial building in oriental style, surrounded by beautiful gardens, filled with the rarest trees and most fragrant flowers. Late in the nftemoon the guests began to gather. There were but few Europeans present, but the crowd of native princes and " lesser lights " was very large. A more picturesque sight could scarcely be imagined. Booths and tents were raised in various parts of the garden, and n great variety of entertainments were offered. There were Nautch, or dancing girls, gorgeously dressed in colored draperies, heavy with gold and silver embroideries, and most fantastically ornamented with jewels. Jugglers showed their tricks to delighted audencea.

The religious awakening in Honolulu has undoubtedly had its beneficial indirect influence upon the Christian Chinese. It is eminently fitting and proper that Anglo-Saxon professing Christians should faithfully perform their duty to their domestics coining from a heathen land. There never was a more opportune season to work for a heathen people than thnt now enjoyed by Christians in Honolulu. "We learn that Mr. Frank W. Damon. recently returned from his studies and travels in Europe and the East, has been invited by the Hawaiian Evangelical Association to superintend the Chinese mission work on these islands, and that in order to fulfill the duties of the office, he has already commenced to devote himself to the study of the Chinese language." We clip this paragraph from the Saturday Press, of Sept. 24. "Our European correspondent" has for nearly five years, filled a large space in our monthly sheet with notes and observations upon all the countries of Europe, except Russia, Spain and Portugal. In his rambles he has visited all those nations of ihe "Old World," and on h s homeward way, via Egypt, India, China and Japan, has extended his "rambles" among nations still "older" than those of Europe. From memoranda, who has gathered on his homeward journey, we trust that a few additional letters will not be deemed out of place, to complete and round out his tour around the world. Since his arrival the Hawaiian Board of Missions has invited him to superintend Mission-work among the 15,000 Chinese residing in Honolulu and scattered over these Islands. For years friends of the Chinese have been looking for some one to undertake this work and one who would learn their language. There can be no possible doubt respecting the need of laborers in this department, it is as true now as in the days of our Saviour: "The harvest truly is plenteous, but the laborers are .few. Pray ye therefore the Lord of the harvest that he will send forth laborers into his hurvest." Chinese Praise Service.—Next Sabbath evening there will be a praise service in the Chinese Church.

The Members of the Association will be glad to show kindness to STRANGERS, to introduce them to the fellowship of Christian Churches, to appropriate Christian work, and to Business Companions. uC'The Employment Committee of theAssociation would feel obliged if Planters, Merchants or others desiring employees would notify them of their needs, as there are frequently applications by worthy men for various positions, which it would be a mutual benefit to assist. The last regular monthly meeting was held at the Lyceum on the 15th ult., and was very well attended, and in view of the amount of work to be reported, the proposed monthly practical talk on ' Terrestrial Chonchology" by Mr. J. S. Emerson, was deferred. The various Committees made their customary reports, and Chink Chack, the Chinese Colportuer of the Association, made a few remarks relative to his labors in different parts of this Island. The change of time of Sunday meetings was settled upon, for the present, for half-past three o'clock at the Lyceum instead of a quarter to seven at the vestry of Fort St. Church as heretofore. Remarks were made by Kcv. J. A. Croztn and others, upon the need of more aggressive work on the part of the Association and the necessity of a building devoted to the various departments of Y. M. C. A. work, and in a central part of the city. With but little discussion thereon a subscription list was started with Mr. P. C. Jones' offer of $500, if any or two others would subscribe a like amount, resulting in a short space of time of securing $2,170. A Committee consisting of J. B. Aiherton, C. M. Cooke and E. Dempsie, were appointed to secure further subscriptions, and Dr. C. M. Hyde, P. C, Jones and A. F. Judd were appointed a Committee to consider upon pans of building and locality, and procuring a charter. These Committees have met to consider the most advisable method of action, and have met with much encouragement, the time seeming fully opportune for immediately pushing the matter to its com- reached nnil the methods employed. We wish we had space to give more than the bare outline of this excellent address, which was listened to with great interest by a packed audience. Toward its close, in response to an appeil. a large number stood up to testify their willingness to enter into this grand work, and help make it the power for good in this part of the Master's vineyard which it was our privilege to do. During the coming month Mr. Smith will give one or two addres-es of n similar nature, which we feel confident will be looked for with eager interest by a large number of our people. We are passing through a precious season of revival work that has had no equal in the annals of the foreign church on ihese islands. And it is an evidence of the presence of the Holy Spirit's power to find that it is extending among the natives .also. Nor is the awakening confined to our metropolis but seems to be extending to the other pletion. On Sunday afternoon, the 2;~>th ult., Rev. islands, for on all sides, so to speak, do we W. J.
