HAS CHRISTIANITY A FUTURE ?
The Christian Church, in its general
application, denotes the aggregate body
of believers in Christ. The Institution is
of divine origin, and both Scripture and
history tell us that the well-being and
progress of the Christian cause are dear
to the heart of God. Indeed, the entire
co.lduct of His administration is to promite the highest good of all that love
Him. ; The Church is not only tho substance, security and glory of a land, but
it is the chief cause and interest which
God has in this world. As a bridegroom
rejoices over his bride, so, O Church of
the Living God, does thy God rejoice
over thee.
Before Time was born the cause of
God was assailed. Angels rose in rebellion, and they failed. After Time began,
a happy pair lived with God in Eden,
but an intending foe dropped poison in
the cup of their wedded bliss. The
young Abel, the first professor of religion, became a martyr for the cause of
God. The King of Egypt arrayed himself against the Almighty and oppressed
His chosen peuple. The kings of the
earth have ever set themselves and conspired against the Lord and His anointed.
As soon as the Messiah was born, a ruler
sought the young child, that he might
destroy it Though the attempt failed,
yet in later years the Christ was nailed
to across. And when, after His death,
the Apostles went forth to preach a crucified and risen Lord for men's salvation,
t'.ie State policy was to harass and I ppress and imprison these messengers of
good tidings. One was slain by the
gword, and another banished to a lonely
isle. In the early ages of Christianity
one persecution succeeded another. Julian, the apostate, assailed the Galilean
In after ages the
and His religion.
pathway of the Church's progress lies
through fiery trials and persecutions, so
that there is not a country, hardly a spot
in Europe, that has not been reddened
with the blood of those who have been
slain for the testimony of Jesus. And
yet at no time in the history of the
Church has the power of God failed to

be equal to the emergencies ot the tiny.
In dens mid eaves, in prison and in martyrdom, with the sword over them and
the fl imes near them, those true to God
have never lacked a song of faith and
triumph.
Hitherto the Church has outlived every
attack, and survived every persecution ;
no weapon that has been formed against
it has prospered, and in the whole times
of its history Evangelical Christianity
has never been so strong or so aggressive
as it is to-day. How could it be otherwise
when God and Christ are on the side of
it?
But what as to the future of the
Church ? Some enterprises in history
have had their day, and disappeared to
make way for others. Is it to be so
with the Church, the organization of
God ? Cities of the past have risen,
flourished, and declined. Imperial Rome
disappeared like a vanished star. Tyre
and Sidon, Nineveh and Bahylon, Athens
and Palmyra were great and renowned
centuries ago, but where are the vestiges
of their departed splendor ? Is this also
the destiny of the holy city of God ?
Religious systems have come and gone.
The religions of Persia and Egypt,
Greece and Rome have lived and died.
Though "the beauty of nature, the
charm of art, and the genius of man"
were blended with their thought and
worship, yet, as ethnic religions, they
have shared the fate of the race or
nation with which they were identified.
Is dissolution the destiny likewise of the
religion of Jesus ? We know that it is
not. The Scriptures throughout teach
that at some time Christianity is to be
Anally and completely triumphant; no
other Savior, and no other Gospel are to
come after the divine Jesus and the
heavenly Word, that age after age have
saved men and cheered their lives by
the blessed hope of immortality. And
no other institution is to supersede the
organization of God, which has for its
foundation the words and deeds of Christ.
The Church has stood the shocks ot time
without being overthrown ; and not only
is it a walled city, but a movable column,
continually advancing, of which the most
wondrous things have been predicted.
One sacred penman has, as it were, vied
with another, to spicture in glowing
imagery the glorious future that awaits
the Church of God. And well they
might. For has not Jesus redeemed the
Church with His precious blood ? Is it
not His care, His treasure, His delight,
His reward ? Yes, it is engraven on the
ptlms of His hands—dear to Him as the
apple of His eye. He love-* it wiih an
And at some future
everlasting love.
day, known to God alone, the Church

praise in all the earth. This implies a
greater excellence than our eyes have
ever beheld. Light and knowledge shall
abound in all the earth ; there shall be
holiness and abundance of peace. We
do not know how to illustrate this. The
visible works of God in creation have in
comparison no glory, because of this ex&gt;
celling glory to which the Church of God
is moving onward. The sun itself is
darkness com &gt;ared with Jesus Christ,
the Sun of Righteousness.
And the
Gospel light that is now rapidly spreading over the horizon will shed its rays
on regions yet in darkness, and at an oncoming day it will shine in its fullness,
like the sky at noontide, on Asia and
Africa, and on every portion of the
habitable earth. This is the predicted
future of Christianity ; it is an object at
which we should directly aim, and a
consummation which we cannot too fervently desire.
The day of the establishment and
praise of the Church should be first in
our thoughts. Not to remember Zion
above every other consideration the
Church of old deprecated as a calamity.
"If I forget thee, O Jerusalem, let my
right hand forget her cunning. If I do
not remember thee, let my tongue cleave
to the roof of my mouth ; if I prefer not
Jerusalemabove mychiel joy." Absence
did not lessen their affection. Zion was
in their thoughts, and they were devotedly attached for it, with an affdetion
like that of a mother to her child, or like
the feeling of a man for his bosom friend.
This pledged and glorious event should
also continually be in our prayers. The
honor has been put upon us to be the
Lord's remembrancers. The cause of
Jesus Christ is one in which every Christian has an interest, and therefore we
should not keep silent, and give God no
rest until He establish His kingdom in
all the earth. Friends, it is time for fervent, importunate prayer; time to plead
at God's mercy seat, urge His promises,
argue tie person and deeds of His annointed Son, and ask till He cause our
souls to hope.

But it is also our duty to work. Prayer
and earnest effort must go hand in hand.
As Christians we are God's; our time,
our substance, talents, lives—all belong
to Him. The world will some day be
Christ's. Yet this promise neither circumscribes nor supersedes our exertions.
Says the late Dr. Guthrie: "The sure
words of our God serve not to set us idle
any more than the breeze blows to send the
sailor to his hammock and rock him over
in the arms of sleep. On the contrary,
long aw.iy, and his eye often turned
hompw.trd across the water's waste, he
shakes out every yard of canvas on the
bending mast, nod works the harder to

gain advantage of propitious winds. It
is so with us! The more full the gifts
and divine breathings of the Spirit, the
busier let us be—busier in the use of
prayer, of the Bible&gt; and of all those
ordinances through which the Spirit
works and impels souls onward and homeward in a heavenly course." Are we
individually doing our appointed part in
this active and aggressive work of saving
men ?
On a cold, frosty morning, two friends
were walking together, and, in the
course of a pleasant ramble, they came
to a spot which was enlivened by a pretty
stream, and the music of a waterfall.
The still and silent pool was frozen, and
as it lay there quietly locked in its
frosty fetters, it strikingly contrasted
with the lively spirit of the free and
flowing rivulet. "Look," said one of
the friends as he pointed to the cataract
tumbling down its clear waters, "it is
too busy to freeze !" So should we be
busy and work with energy and enthusiasm, cheered by the fact that in all
lands sowers are sowing, and reapers arc
reaping, and glorious crops are growing.
In the medieval past alchemists sought
the philosopher's stone—that mystic
stone, the touch of which would transmute the worthless into precious treasures. They never found it. Yet it is
in the world. It is that "stone which
the builders rejected," but which has
"become the head of the corner"—Christ
Jesus. Through His mighty love the
world will be saved, and the universal
song shall be :

SAILOR'S HOME SOCIETY
AND THE HOME.
The above Society was established in
1854 and held its first meeting in the
Bethel, on the 21st of November of that
year.
Of its original officers and members
only a few are now among the living ami
of these only Messrs S. N. Castle, H.
M. Whitney and J. T. Waterhousk
Sr. are residents of these Islands.
The object of the Society was to provide suitable, respectable and cheap lodgings for the numerous sailors who Were
then visiting this port, with such influences thrown around them as would tend
to their well being in other respects.
For the purpose of incorporation a
Charter was granted to the Sailor's
Home Society and a piece of land set
apart by the Government on which to
build the Home, such land to remain the
property of said Society, as long as it was
used for the purposes set forth in the
Charter.
The funds required for constructing
the present Sailor's Home building were
raised by public subscription and the interest shown in accomplishing the object of the Society by his late Majesty
Kamehameha IV may well be recorded
here. He laid the foundation stone of

THE

the building on the Olst of July 1855
and soon after that the house was ready
to receive its inmates.
Thus the Society started on its sphere
of usefulness in this community and has
continued to carry out its object through
nil these years until now. Looking back
upon this period and remembering the
many fellow workers intent to further
the good work of this institution, the
figure of the late Rev. S. C. Damon, D.
D. stands first and foremost before our
vision, and his name and labors are identified with all the good that the Home
ever has done for the sailor here.
The conflagration of the 18th of April
of this year consumed the out buildings
of the Home and only providentially the
building itself escaped destruction by
fire. The three-storied wooden structure had ere then often been spoken of
as a fearful threat of fire and the late
conflagration directed public opinion
more strongly than ever to the danger
offered by the Sailor's Home to the city
in case a fire should occur in its immediate neighborhood or in the building itself. The Board of Trustees duly recognized the fact and thought it their duty
to take steps by which the threatened
danger would be obviated and the fears
of the public be allayed whileat the same
time the continued existence of the
Sailor's Home Society as a Corporation
would be secured and arrangements be
made by which its sphere of usefulness
could still be maintained.
To achieve this end the Board appointed a Committee of five of its members to confer with I he 1Government and
ascertain on what terms arrangement*
for the removal of the present building
and the surrender of a part of the site
belonging to the Sailor's Home Society
under its Charter could be effected.
The Government met the views of
the Committee in a liberal spirit and

VACATION NOTES.
Our highly esteemed friend, Dr. Geo.
F. Hunting, the able and popular pastor of the First Presbyterian Church, Kalamazoo, Mich., recently started a
entitled
Our
monthly
publication
Church for the benefit of his congregation. Should the reader ask what this
has to do with our vacation, we reply:
Nothing. Yet there must somewhere
be a connecting link, or the above would
probably not have been written, at least
not where it appears. The link is this:
In the August number Bno. Hunting
says:
We are a little in doubt as to
whether we have earned a vacation, but
the people tell us we ought to have a fewweeks of rest, and so God willing, we
are going for an outing. We have a
feeling that it is a selfish sort of thing to
go off and leave so many of you here at
home, but perhaps we can do better for
you, after a little release from the routine of life, and so you may be the gainers in the end. We expect to find new
material for sermons and prayer meeting
talks, and new vigor for pastoral work
while we ramble in the woods, or lounge
by the lake side and we hope to come
back to you with a large iucrease ot physical and mental capital."
Our people here also intimated that we
ought to take a rest and the Trustees
very kindly allowed us such time us we
should need for a visit to the Australian
Colonies. But ascertainingsubsequentl.y
that tnc trip would demand eleven weeks
and being on the point of erecting a new
Church edifice we postponed this contemplated voyage till a more convenient
time. As a substitute we accepted a cordial invitation from Mrs. Adelia Cornwell to spend a few weeks at her home
on Maui and at this hospitable and beautiful mansion Mrs. Out;el and the writer
enjoyed through the month of July generous hospitality, delightfully cool weather, pleasant social intercourse and rest.
Shortly after our arrival we accepted an
Invitation from Mr. and Mrs. E. M.
Walsh to visit them at Paia and had
the pleasure to be present at a reception
given at their home in honor of Mr. W.
H. Laws and his bride. It was a happy

of a large American city behind, feel that

Sabbath ministrations and the people listened to our message as if they were indeed hungry for the Bread of life. After
the third Suixlay, the Rev. Arthur D.
BtWBLL) the expected pastor, and wife
arrived. Mr. BUUU is still young In
years and his biography brief; yet,
though brief, by no means devoid of interest. He was Ixim in India; educated
at Amherst College and for five years at
Vale Divinity School; then went to India
as missionary of the A. B. C. F. M. ; after eight months there he was sent back
on account of Mrs. Bissell's ill health and
after spending some months in the States
received a call to the Foreign church at
Wailuku. Mrs. Bissell is the daughter of an old resident of Maui, known
doubtless to many of our readers, Mr.
M. M. Gower, who however left the Islands in 1870. As to the Wailuku church,
the Rev. S. E. Bishop, who acted as
Scribe at the organization of the church
reports this, in the February number of
The Friend, 1808, to have taken place
on January 15th of that year. From
this report we learn that the original
name was "The Union Protestant
Church," a very good name for a church
with the Protestant left out. A few
days after the arrival of the pastor and
his wife a reception was given them and
us at the residence of Mil. and Mrs.
Lowrie, at Kahalui. A special train
was kindly placed at the disposal of all
who desired to be present. And it appeared that wiien they congregated from
Waikitpu at one end and Spreckelsville at
the other, the house was soon filled with
pleasant people and the evening made
so enjoyable to us, and indeed to all
present, that it will ever have a place in
our remembrance.
One word more about Bro. Bissell.
The last Sunday of our stay was for him
the first one in his present field. His
sermon as to matter and method was the
bread of life offered ova plate of gold.

On the evening of the 13th a letter of
dismissal was granted to the member,
Geo. L. Bates, in order that he may

and doubtless at leisure moments draw
as many caricatures as boys with sharper
pencils. The only advantage they at
tirst enjoyed over the boys in native
schools was in methods of teaching. The
Hindu schools at that time laid great
stress on noise; the quiet pupil was in imminent peril of a rap (of the knuckles or something harder) on his shaven
pate from an irate teacher, while he who
loudly and persistently conned his lesson was pretty sure of favor. Any boy,
young or old, can at once see what a
grand chance that gave to fool the teacher,—to pretend to be learning something,
to be bright and smart, while In reality
you are just as ignorant and stupid aa
ever. The missionaries of course made
sweeping and revolutionary changes;
they abolished from the school all noise
that was strictly necessary, and actually
undertook to give the boys a little Information. The aim was to open the eyes
of those poor creatures, and if possible
win them to Christ and set them to
teaching other boys. And that aim haa
been steadily adhered to amid all subsequent changes. The result is that at
present the mission employs a large number of native young men, graduates of
the schools and Christians, in teaching
small schools in the numerous villages
that dot that part of the Bombay Presidency. Accommodations are often not
much better, but as a rule the boys can
have the use of slates and books, while
the teachers are trained to profitable
methods of instruction. In these litt'e
schools, the low caste boys (who are virtually though not legally excluded from
Government schools) learn the rudiments
up to the third or fourth Government
standard. The inspector appointed by
Government visits these schools, and
draws up a report of progress and efficiency; whereupon if the report is favorable, Government makes a "grant In aid,"
to help maintain the work.

EDUCATION IN INDIA.
BY REV. ARTHUR D. BISSELL.

I.
Readers of The Friend may be interested to know something of educational work as carried on by the oldest mission of the American Board, the Maratha
Mission at Ahmednagar, India. Tae
tlrst missionaries found it difficult to obtain any scholars, even from the paupers
who had consented to listen to preaching
for the consideration of a farthing or so
per day. At last a few were persuaded
to come more or less regularly,—boys
only; for girls could Jno more be taught
to read than donkeys, at least so said the
Hindus when asked to send their daughters. The boys were accommodated in
rather sorry quarters, though better than
to. A
many of them were
roof of thatch or tiles held aslant against
the city wall by means of posts at the
corners, a floor nicely washed over with
mud and then dried, for seats the floor,
for slates boards smoothly overlaid with
fine sand, for pencils their own fingers,
—such was the style In which they began their education. With those crude
tools they could learn the rudupeuts;

FIRST HYMN OF ISAAC WATTS.

Watts wa.s but a youth when he wrote
his first hymn. He was visiting his
father, and had worshipped one Sabbath
morning at the little Independent chapel
it 8 luthampton. On his way home he
complained of the crude, uncouth psalms
they had to sing. '«Don't complain unless you can write better, said the deacon.
"If I can write better, will you sing
them ?" A promise was made, and the
next Sabbath they sang from manuscript
the ({lories of tbe Limb
" Behold
Aiuid Hie Father's throne ;

Prepare new honors for tiis name,

An i songs before unknown."

Other hymns were soon prep tred, and
these "songs before unknowu" awakened new interest and infused new life
into the psalmody of the churches. Mr.
Watts sent copies of the hymns to Dr.
Cotton Mather, and in 1741 the book
was published in America. Watts wrote
six hundred and ninety-seven hymns.
He wrote two-fifths of the hyinna used

MULTIPLICATION.
There are a few principles in the multiplication of numbers which may bo of
great service to business men, and hence
worth the teaching to our young men
before they leave school. If any young
man will give attention to these principles as they appear in The Friend, I
promise him perfect satisfaction, as the
tradesmen say. Any that can learn
common arithmetic can practice these
principles to advantage.
1. To find the product of any two
numbers betwen 10 and 20, multiply the
units' figures together and write in the
product as units the right-hand figure ol
toe product thus obtained, and add to
the sum of the units' figures the lefthand figure of the product, and write
the right-hand figure of the sum for the
tens' figure of the product, and finally to
the product of tens' figures of the multiplicand and multiplier, add the left-hand
figure of the sum for the hundreds'
figure of tho product.
Example—lBxl9=342.
Explanation—Bx9 72. Write the 2
for the units' figure of the product.
8+ 9 + 7=24. Write the 4 for the tens'
figure of the product.
IXI =1; I+2 3. Write the 3 for
the hundreds' figure of the product. We
have 842, Ans.
Again—l7xl6=272.
Explanation—7x6 42. Write the 2
for the units' figure of the product.
7+ 6 + 4=17. Write the 7 for the
tens' figure of the product.
IXI =1; 1 + 1=2.. Write the 2 for
the hundreds' figure of the product. We
have 272, Ans.

2. The product of any two numbers of
two figures each, when the unit figure in
each is 1, may be found by writing in
the decimal order the unit figure 1, for
the unit figure of the product, the sum
of the tens for the tens' figure of the product, and the product of the tens for the
hundreds of the product Thus: 91 x7l
=6461.
Explanation—lxl =1- Write the 1
for the unit of the product. 9 + 7=16.
Write the 6 for the tens' figure of the product 9x7 + 1 =64. Write the 64 for
the hundreds of the product. We have

If the reader will practice the principles given above, and become familiar
with the operations, he will be prepared
for the next methods, which will appear
in the October number of Thk Fkiend.
It is thought that they will be still more
interesting, and quite useful as a time
and labor saving device. It is desirable
that all the principles be filed away for
reference and examination when the
entire work on multiplication is finished.
KINDNESS IN SCHOOL.
The world has yet to learn the power
of kindness. It is to the teacher the
philosopher's stone—a real existence
without the aid of alchemy. It disinns
malice, conciliates an adversary, soothes
discontent, makes an advocate or champion of every pupil, and carries to each
family circle an influence which secures
golden opinions and troops of friends.
What the lever ot Archimedes was to
mechanics, this is in morals and social
life. That could move the material
world; this is able to move the social
and spiritual. This, however, has the
advantage of that, as the place to stand
upon is already found—it is the nature
of a human being.
I would affectionately commend the
following lines to the attention of my
brother teachers:
for Kindness speaks
" BeAkind,
language quite her owu ;

The charms she hath, the good she seeks,
To all mankind are known.
The rudest sivage feels her sway—
She rules the most refined,
And seems in pleading tones to aay,
Who'er thou art, be kind."
Be kind, if love sbonld dwell
VVnerever man is funud ;
It should in beauty most excel
Where Cnristiaus most abound.
Reciprocated kindness there
With every graoe combined,
Should set the world example fair,
And teach it to be kind.
Be kind. The gentlerain,
The bright and glorious sun,
And every souroe wheuoe good we gain,
Are kept by Ood from none.
Bat both the evil mid the just,"

"

"

By goodness undefined,

Alike are blest. Then, if ye trust
In God, ye should be kind.
Be kind to every friend ;
This friendship's self demands ;
Be kind to foes who sore offend,
For this your Lord commands.
Let not the Christian cause through you
Be weakened or maligned:
In all ye say, in all ye do,
Be courteous—be kind.
Be kind to erring ones;
The best of men aver,
That he who most pollution shuns
Feels most for those who arr.
There is no human will so strong
That cannot kindness bind ;
Jostioe mast punish what is wrong,
Yet Justice oan be kind.
Be kind. If you are rioh.
Ye need indeed to care ;
For Ood hath given wealth of whioh
Tbi poor should have share.

•

Ye iiinv be bountiful, hat yet
To charity be blind ;
Ye ni iy give freely, bat forget
Ye also shoald be kind.
Be kind. If ye sre poor,
Yi&gt; know how kindness smooths
Tbs roughest fortunes ye endure,
And how it sorrow soothes;
Ye know ye mat receive relief,
Yi'i sympathy not Qnd ;
Then learn to sympathize with grief—
The poorest can be kind.
Be kind. If jo sre old.
Love may not light yonreye;
The strongest passion may ({row cold,
Rut virtue cannot die.
There is ruKpect from youth to yon,
By (Jod sud men assigned ;
Let your deportment claim it too:
Ye aged ones, be kind.
Be kind. If ye are young,
And free, as yet, from cares.
Remember, ye mast w ilk among
I 1111ii in 1&gt;«i.-1 ill.) mid snnres ;
"The small sweet courtesies of life"
For mortals were designed,
To iiiii inn- peace—to banish strife ;
Employ them, and be kind.
Be kind. Why should yon not.
If constant friendship cheers,
And makes morti bearable your lot

In this our vale of tearsr"
Oh ! think how different your fate
Had yon neglected pined ;
If kindness shown to you be great,
Oh 1 should you not be kind ?
Be kind. Why should you not ?
If faithful friends are few.
And if you seem lo be forgot
By those you once deemed true,
Should you not sympathize with those
To cold neglect consigned ?
Can you not feel for others' woes ?
Oh ! should you not be kind ?
Be kind. Forget, forgive
The wrongs wlnoh you receive ;
Oh ! strive in love wirh nil to live,
This world ye suon mast leave.
Then cultivate n generous mind—
Live peace ably with all mankind,
And those, at death ye leave behind,
Will bless your memory, and—be kind."

DRUNKENNESS.

—" Drunkenness," says Raskin, &lt;&lt; is
not only the cause of crime, but it is

crime" and if any encourage drunkenness for the sake of the profit derived
from the sale of drink, they are guilty
of a form of moral assassination as criminal as any that has ever been practiced
by the bravos of any country or of any

age."

Eromanga.—The Presbyterian Record
of Canada publishes a letter from Rev.
H. R. Robertson, who has just resumed
work on Eromanga which he began thirteen years ago. On his return he was
welcomed with the greatest cordiality by
the people. Day after" day for a whole
week the natives gathered to welcome
him back. Some women actually carried their infants over the island twenty
miles to meet the returned missionary.
A present of a ton and a half of large
yams and twelve bogs was made to him.
Thirty-seven candidates were baptized,
and on June 28 not less than 179 church
members sat down together at the Lord's
table. Six hundred and ten natives were
present at the services, which were held
close by the large rock upon which the
body of the missionary John Williams
was laid after his murder. Mr. Robertson speaks with greatest satisfaction of
the condition of things on the islands.—

ASSOCIATION AT
HILO.
The Evangelical Association of the island of Hawaii held its semi-annual
meeting this time at Hilo, beginning its
sessions on Thursday, August 12th, and
closing them on Tuesday the 17th.
There were in attendance the Corresponding Secretary of the Hawaiian Board,
all the pastors of the churches on the island except three who were prevented
from ominjr either by sickness or absence from the island, and one delegate
from each church. The sessions were
busy, harmonious, and profitable. Reports
for the past six months were read from
the various churches, among which was
a report from the venerable Father Lyons
of the church at Waimea, in which he
mentioned his increasing infirmity of
body, and requested the Association to
make some arrangement to relieve him
of the burden of bis church work. Much
sympathy was expressed for him, and
the Rev. D. Kapali, a former missionary
to the Marshall Islands, but now resident
at Kohnla, was assigned to assist in the
care of the Waimea Church until the next
meeting of the Association. Essays wore
next read on subjects or portions of Scripture which bad been assigned to the pastors at the previous meeting. This exercise is found to be valuable as a means
of stimulating thought and adding to the
interest of the meetings, as each essay is
criticised by the members, and often
opens up an interesting and valuable discussion on some practical or doctrinal
point.
The needs of the churches were considered, and arrangements made for the
supply of those without pastors during
the next six months. The subjects of
Foreign and Home Missions were brought
before the body. Also that of the Theological School at Honolulu.
Thursday and Friday were thus occupied exclusively, and Saturday was devoted entirely to the exhibition of the
Sunday Schools. The exercises consisted almost entirely of Scripture recitations and the singing of appropriate
hymns, and we were pleased to note the
entire absence of attempts at comic or
dramatic performances, or Inappropriate
songs, such as have in years gone by
disgraced some such occasions. On the
contrary, everything was appropriate and
befitting such an occasion. The exercises were honored by the interested presence of Her Royal Highness,
Princess Liliuokalani, and greatly aided
by the assistance of Mr. Berger and his
band, who played three of the hymns
while the whole audience joined in a
volume of song that was truly inspiriting.
The total number of Sunday School

tbe silver was soon precipitated—a sharplcss mass indeed, but
every grain there. A few days after it
came back a more beautiful cup from the
hands of the silversmith. May not Ood
as readily restore our bodies after the
decay and disorganization of death ?—
George F. Pentecost.

scholars who took part was 183, of whom the jar, and

were connected with the Hilo Sunday School and the rest represented ten
different Sunday Schools from the other
districts of the island. The exhibition
began at in o'clock a. m., and lasted till
half-past five p. m., with the exception
of an intermission of an hour at noon,
when all partook of a feast which the
good people of Hilo had provided in an
immense shed outside of the church.
The Princess bad provided a prize of a
beautiful silver flagon and cup for the
school which should be adjudged to have
excelled. The prize was neatly inscribed
on the outside, in Hawaiian

(if)

"NO KE KULA BABATI I LANAKILA. NA

1886."
At the close of the exhibition, the
prize was awarded to the school from
Kalapana, under the leadership of Hon.
J. W. Kauwila, the lately defeated candidate for Representative. All were
agreed that this school fully deserved
the prize.
On Monday forenoon, the Association
was again in session, and the afternoon
was devoteii lo the sessions of the Sunday School Association, which is regularly organized witli its constitution, officers, and members representing the different Sunday Schools of the island, and
which always meets at the same time
and place as the Evangelical Association.
Tuesday forenoon, the Evangelical
Association finished up its work, and adjourned to meet next March at Waiohinu
LILIUOKALANI.

BUSINESS AND RELIGION.

A wealthy, irreligious, shrewd business man in Illinois was approached by
a member of the church of Christ for a
subscription towards building a meetinghouse. He cheerfully put down his
name for two hundred dollars, and then
remarked, "I give that as a good business investment. I would rather give
two hundred dollars every year than not
to have the gospel preached in this community."
How is that ?" he was asked. You
do not pay any heed to the gospel. Why
are you interested in having it preached ?" "O," he replied, "I live here
with my family, and my property is
around here; without the infliieuoe of
Christianity the condition of society
would soon become such that neither
property nor life would be safe. I would
not be willing to live in any community
where the gospel was not preached !"
These views of a hard-headed man of
the world are confirmed by all experience. Christianity is the salt of the
earth. Only the utterly abandoned would
be content to live where its influence
had ceased to be felt

Editor.

The regular monthly meeting for August was omitted in accordance with
action taken by the Board of Directors at
their last meeting.

Gen. Sec. S. D. Fuller is searching for
lost sheep upon the slopes of Haleakala.
At least he is one of a party who are
spending their vacation at Olinda, Maui.
Our President, Mr. W. A. Bowen, for
the past few weeks confined to his home
by sickness, litis again made his appearance upon the street. His friends hope
soon to welcome him back to his accustomed places and duties.

Notwithstanding that so few people
are in town at present, the Sunday afternoon meetings have been continued, and
members who are able to attend should
endeavor to do so, particularly those who
are on the Committee on Devotional
Work.
Of the pledge cards sent to members
some time ago, there are still some which
have not been returned. It is owing
probably to oversight in some number of
cases on the part of those who received
them, but the Treasurer will be glad to
have them filled up and sent to him soon.
Topics for the Sunday afternoon meetings for the month will be as follows :
September 5.—" Wise Counsel to a
Young Man." Prov. 1: 7t019 ; 2 Tim.
4 : 14 and 16.
Sept. 12.—" To Reject Christ is to Rob
Ood." Luke 20: 9to 19; John Ii 11
and 12.
Sept. 19.— Soul-hunger Satisfied."
Matt. 5:6; John 6: 47 to 58.
Sept. 26. —"Approving the Right;
Doing the Wrong." Rom. 2 : 17 to 29;
Acts 24 : 24 to 27.
Young Men.—Read more good books;
get the mud out of your brain. Let
Christclean out those bad tenants in your
heart—evil thoughts, wrong desires and
wicked lusts. Then tone up your physical nature with some good walks or ex
ercise in the gymnasium ; getaway from
these leprous fellows, and keep good
company ; throw away the cigarette, for
physicians say it is worse than bad
whisky ; get up in time to go to Church
Sunday morning, you will rest there
more than in bed—in fact, swing clean
around into the sunlight of a new life.

Though obtained at great cost and expense, the owner of the wine graciously
asks nothing for drinking. All he requires Is, that you acknowledge and feel
your need of it. When a petition is presented for a draught, the Owner replies,
&lt;• According to your faith be it unto you."
It the petitioner be well stocked with
faith, he will receive a full supply of the
wine. And if he wishes to carry some
of it home with him for future use, he
must be in possession of the faith container, for no other will hold it.
This wine possesses medicinal properties which are very remarkable. For
chronic diseases such as evil-heart, blackheart and vile-heart, it is a sovereign
remedy. Imbibed in large quantities, it
Is a foe to melancholy. And when
condensed and made into pills, it is efflcatious in cases of dyspepsia. Multitudes
of dyspeptic souls that went about- crying, M Who will show us any good ?" by
taking these pills, have had their organs
of digestion restored to soundness, and
an edge put to their appetites as if by
miracle—so powerful is the wine in its
operation. I might mention many more
of its medicinal properties, but your own
thoughts will suggest them to you.
It remains to relate a case in which
the curative properties of the wine were
strikingly exhibited. The case is that
of a Mr. Saul, who lived In the first
century and was afflicted with jaundice.
The nature of his disease led him to view
things In a wrong light, it put an evil
aspect to the doings of some of his neighbors; and being a zealous man in his
views, he thought it his duly to try and
reform these neighbors of his. But the
manner in which he started upon his
career of reformation was a novel one.
It was by &lt;* breathing out threatening
and slaughter against the disciples of the
Lord; by making havoc of the Church,
entering into every house, and haling
men and women committed them to
prison." (How would such a reformer
suit our times ?)

In the midst, however, of his reforming zeal, Mr. Saul trot a drink of the
wine, and the jaundice all left him; he
saw things in their true light, and set
about reforming upon another principle.
Another property of this wine is, that
it informs the judgment, and enlightens
the understanding. There is a case mentioned of a young gentleman who was
self-willed, and proud withal. He
thought, that by setting up for himself,
he would make a greater show in the
world, than by remaining in his father's
house. So he asked his father for his
portion of goods, and having received it,
he set out to make his fortune; but he
did not succeed in his expectations; he
soon became bankrupt, losing all his property. In his destitution, he providentially obtained a draught of the wine
whose praises we are sounding, enabling
him to perceive that the course which he
bad taken in leaving his father's house,
was wholly wrong. His judgment being
informed, as well as his mind enlightened by the draught, he decided that the
best thing he could do now would be to
return to his father's house. As he
thought, so it proved, he met with a
kind reception on his return home.
This wine hasalso cleansing properties.
An extraordinary instance of its power
to cleanse is the case of Mr. John Newton, a native of England. He was a
very profane man; so much so, indeed,
that he was styled the
African Blasphemer." Well, in the course of his
blasphemies, it occurred that he took a
pretty copious draught of the wine; and
it is related that it washed the oaths completely out of his mouth, so tbat, for ever
afterwards, he lived quite a decent gentleman. Being engaged, at the time, in
the slave trade, the wine cleansed him of
that filthiness as well.
Multitudes who have had their hearts
frozen in the ice of selfishness, have been
recuscitated by this wine. Some who
were home bound have had their home
ties sundered, and they have been sent
abroad on an errand of benefaction to
mankind in general.
A virtue none the less estimable for its
negative quality, is the power wnich
this wine possesses of blinding the eyes
to the faults and misdeeds of our neighbors, so that instead of denouncing
them before the world, we go to them
and help them mend their errors.
If men were only filled with this wine,
a great many of the idle tales passing to
and fro, would never be heard. The
peace of families would be preserved;
slander, and talebearing, and backbiting,
and censoriousness, would all be put
down; and there would be a glorious
time.
Language fails to impart a just conception of the goodness of this wine. I
therefore invite you all to taste of it;
then you can Judge for yourselves.
You are anxious, perhaps, by this
time, to hear the name of the cup from
which the wine is drunk. Well, the
name of it is, the Cup of Free Grace.
This you might easily have guessed from

"

.

the text which says, "Come, buy wine
und milk, without money and without
price."
The Cup of Free Grace is unique. It
is divided into two compartments; one
contains wine (or exhilerating, medicinal and cleansing purposes; the other
contains milk for nourishment The
world is a hospital, and all men are patients. In providing the Cup of Free
Grace with two compartments, we behold thewisdom of the great Physician
who has charge of the hospital; the wine
is to restore the sick to health, and the
milk to nourish them after they become
convalescent. Did the Cup of Free
Grace contain wine only, there would be
room to suppose that patients would famish. It would be no mercy to cure a
man of his maladies, and then leave him
to perish of hunger. The Cup of Free
Grace provides against such a catastrophe. Therefore it becomes us all to bow
down, and adore the wisdom which contrived it
EXPLICATION.

The words of the text are an invitation from the Lord Jesus Christ to sinners, to come and partake of the provisions of the Gospel, which provisions
are life and salvation.
The invitation U general in one sense,
and particular in another. It is general,
inasmuch as it is extended to all mankind. «*Hu, everyone, come ye to the
waters.' It is particular in the sense
that it is available to the thirsty soul only, "Ho, every one that thirsteth, come
ye to the waters."
The invitation specifically is to the
weary and heavy ladened sinner; to the
man who, having come to a knowledge
of his true
burdened with the
weight of sins, thirsts after a righteousness that shall deliver him from the
plague of his own heart. To him are
the glad tidings announced, that Jesus
is able to meet all the necessities of his
case, that he stands ready with the
might of his Spirit to draw him from the
miry clay" and to plant his feet upon
the lasting foundation of the Rock of

The August meeting of the Woman's
Board was held at the usual time and
place. Twenty-five ladies were present,
a full attendance for this season of the
year.
Mrs. S. N. Castle read an interesting
and instructive paper on the life and
work of Francis Xavier. Miss nhattuck from Mt. Holyoke Seminary, was
present, and addressed the Society, giving some account of the work for missions in the school; also of the schools
in South Africa that are modeled after
Mt. Hob'oke.
Two hundred pupils have gone out
from Mt. Holyoke as missionaries. No
special business came before the Society.
