The natives have broken out again on the Spaniards, and killed a Lieutenant and two corporals, and about thirty Manila men, at our place at Ova. They came to Ova May 17, and asked for a place to build. The hill clo;>e by our school was given them, and they started to clear the place, and two weeks after, two priests came and wanted a place to build on, and no other place but the Doane's place close by the church would suit them. They started to build their church about four yards from our church door. Of course we complained to the Governor about it, but they said that that was the only healthy place. So the Governor wrote and told us that they could not have it moved as that was the only healthy place. We could not do or say anything more. June 25th, early in the morning we were awakened with the noise of shouting and shooting. The Lieutenant and his men had just started to their work, and the natives rushed on them and killed them, a few escaping into the woods, and the natives hunting them down like pigs. They not having any arms could not do anything. They left all their arms in the house they were living in, and the natives took them all. When we first heard the noise, Nanpei ran down the hill just in time to save the two priests. He brought them up to our house, and he and his wife saved five Manila men, and a chief saved another, and we kept them all in our house two days and two nights. Those We did were nights of anxiety for not know what minute they would break in and kill them. Our own lives were in danger too, because they were angry with Nanpei for saving them. The second night Nanpei and Mr. Bowker took them quietly from the house down to the shore and out to the reef where the man-of-war was, and they got safely on board. When the news reached the Governor, he sent four armed boats, but they were driven back by the natives, killing two and wounding nine. No Ponapeans got hurt. About five o'clock, the same day, the man-of-war came, and as she was going in the passage, she got on the reef, and they did not get her off till Sunday night. (She got on Wednesday evening). The man-of-war getting on the reef saved a light and the lives of the people we had in the house, and perhaps our own lives too. Now they are going to send to Manila for help. In about four weeks they will have four men-of-war down here. Then they will shell the whole of Matelenim. Poor, poor Ponape will suffer now for their foolish deed. Our work is broken up and we will have to leave the place till it is quiet again. The Governor sent word to all that did not have anything to do with the fight to leave or he would not be responsible for their lives. We are going to Nanpei's place at Kiti to live till the .S7<ir comes. I hope she is about read} to leave Honolulu now. We will begin to look for her the end of August. The Governor has been very kind to us. He offered us a house to stay in and to protect us. We will be safe at Kiti unless the whole island breaks out. The Kiti tribe is quiet now. The Spanish have a station there with about forty men and two priests, and they are quite friendly to them. We do not know the real cause of the tight. A great many blame us for it on account ot our not wanting their church near ours, but it is not true. The Ova people did not start the light, but now they have all joined. The second day after the light I left Ova with ten girls and have been staying here with a friend. I went back once to see Miss Palmer and to plan about going to Kiti. We want to keep the girls with us if possible. Tell Grace not to be anxious about us. The natives say they will not kill any of us. * * With love to you all. Li iv M. Coir.. (Post-marked Manila, Aug. 11.) Letter from Rev. James Kekela of Hivaoa, Marquesas Is. [By Tropit Bird, arrived at San bran cisco Sept. 19. the following letter was received from Mr. Kekela, then on the island of 'Tahiti.' Papeete, August 6th, 1890. Rev. C. M. Hyde: Great love to you, your wife and your children. There has been a long interval in our correspondence. We Hawaiian missionaries in the Marquesas are all well, except Mrs. S. Kauwealoha, who has been invalid and feeble for the past four months, but is now somewhat better ; I saw them at L'apon the first week in July. I am just now here at Papeete, having come to take home my youngest daughter, to be a teacher of French at Hivaoa. She has spent four years in Tahiti, and has become fitted to teach in the French language, having been approved by the inspectors of the French government in Tahiti. In the latter part of June I left Puamau for Nuuhiwa, but finding the vessel had gone to 'Tahiti, I made a friendly visit of a week to the S. Kauwealoha folks at Uapou, then returned to Taiohae, Nuuhiwa, to await the vessel from California. We sailed from Taiohae July 29, reaching Papeete August 2d. I spent a few days here, waiting for passage to Nuuhiwa. I have associated with the French Protestant.missionaries of Pepeete, Mr. Verenie and wife. He is pastor of the native people, who have a fine house of worship. He gave me his pulpit on the Sabbath, and the people rejoiced to bear of God's work in the Marquesas, in Hawaii, and in M'cronesia. These Society Islands were the first to hear the Gospel of Jesus the early teachers are all deceased, and their successors have returned to England, or gone on to Rarotonga, Samoa, Fiji, Solomon's and Papua. The elder people remember the labors of the early missionaries from England. They are well versed in the Bible, to which they devote great attention. There are here some Protestant French missionaries, Mr. Verenie and wife, and Mr. C. Vienot and wife, in whose family my daughter lives, three single ladies being the Protestant teachers. There is also here a Catholic school which some attend. Tahiti and Moorea have long been in French jiossession, as well as the P.oimotu and Marquesas groups. In fighting began between the people of Raiatea and the French war-ships, since which time till now the French ships have stood waiting, without actual firing between the ships and the natives. Last July, the French attacked Huahine, and defeated the natives, raising the French flag. Borabors submitted to French occujiation without resistance. In a short time, Raiatea will have accepted the French tlag. 'The French ships are in great force. A great French ship with the Admiral is now here, 12 days from Honolulu, having arrived about July 30th. The French ship Champlain is also here with the war news from Raiatea, Huahine and Borahora. In the Marquesas, the Lord's work has not progressed as unobstructed!)' as the laborers desire. That all the people might turn to Christ, is the good our hearts desire. He are teaching the people with such ability as the Lord hestows upon us. Great darkness and soul-night of sin enshroud the people of the land. The Marquesas Is. are under French rulers, a French governor, judge, and tax-collector, with French police on the different islands. Some of their doings are good, others not so. 'They make roads, and urge the parents to send then children to school and feed them. 'They live with the Tahitian women without marriage ; so also at Nuuhiwa while in office there. Then returning to Tahiti or to France, they fling away these women ; and the ignorant natives observe these doings of enlightened men from Christian lands. Still we indulge no doubt or sloth in the work of our Lord Jesus. Our minds are hopeful, with the Prayer, "Thy kingdom come, and thy will be done on earth as it is in heaven." Give my love to your students in the Institute, to Rev. L. Smith's household, and the Christian friends in Honolulu, to Mr. Parker, his mother and his sisters. Kaoha nui otou a pao.

It appears that early in August, a severe conflict took place between the French forces and the natives on Raia tea, over one hundred of the latter being slain. Work Among the Portuguese. It will be remembered by our older leaders, that under the labors of Dr. Kalley, a Scotch physician resident at Madeira, many of the Portuguese on THE FRIEND. children, it has come to be associated with such services. A little expense in fitting it up, will make it suitable for the first meetings, though ultimately it is hoped to build a suitable Chapel with adjacent rooms for reading, library, schools, lectures, etc. 'There were about 70 resident Portuguese present at the preaching service at the Armory last Sunday morning, about 80 in the afternoon. The Scripture lessons, read by the whole congregation, and the hymns sung congrcgationally also, were printed on programmes for the occasion. 'The hymn books, ordered from Portugal, were out of print, but are expected to arrive in the next steamer. The wink has begun most auspiciously and we bespeak for it the sympathies and prayers of all interested in the social improvement and development of our PortUgi ese citizens.

At this stage of his sickness the case was considered almost hopeless by all that saw him. He was now taken out of bed, laid upon the floor, and a large bucket of cold water poured upon his head and body, by which a powerful shock was given to the system. He was now laid in bed, and cloths wet in salt water were applied to his head to abate the heat. These measures did not produce immediate good. About a pint and a half of blood was taken from the temporal artery. It was my object to saturate the system with calomel. A blister was also applied to the patient's leg. After having gone about three days and nights without sleep, and being nearly exhausted, he began to doze a little. He still had frequent inclinations to vomit. I then gave a gentle emetic, which did not serve to settle his stomach in the least. His mouth became sore from the use of calomel, but nothing seemed to reconcile his stomach until I applied a large blister over the region of the liver. After this had raised, his efforts to vomit completely subsided, and did not return for some time. He now could take nourishment. His mouth was very sore, but his skin was not so yellow as formerly. I still continued the calomel, though in less doses. I was confident that my patient was convalescent, although the family was unwilling to admit that he was any better. He now began to complain of ringing in the ears, and a difficulty of hearing. About this time a slight cough came on, which lasted several days. About the fourteenth day of his disease his tongue became clean and his complexion clear. Still he was extremely debilitated, and could not sit up only for a very brief time without fainting. His month was very sore and troublesome, and I discontinued the use of calomel. Directed him to use cordials, clove water, bitter wine, with a little bark. He drank a few bottles of Congress water, and took a good supply of suitable food, for which he had a pretty gooil appetite. His deafness, cough, and delirium wore off in the same gradual manner in which his strength returned. In less than four weeks he was able to ride about, and so he went on to full recovery. that island renounced Catholicism. In consequence ol the mob violence aroused against them, some eight hundred left their homes about 1816, voluntary exiles loi conscience sake.

In our last issue, we made some statements about the King's request to the Legislature to call a Convention to make a new Constitution. Our statements were unsatisfactory to the EVENING Bulletin, which is nowtheregular organ of the National Reform Party. As, after the habit of that paper, its animadversions were only in general terms, carefully abstaining from specific instances, we do not know wherein our offense consisted. Since then, the Special Committee of the House upon that measure have brought in a very full and elaborate Several of report upon the subject. this Committee are members of the National Reform Party, some of whom compose the majority signing the report, and the rest of whom, with one exception, are understood to be in accord with the general conclusions of the Report. It is a somewhat elaborate, and we think, a very able document. Some of its positions and statements so precisely confirm those of our September article, that we have printed extended extracts from the Report, which must carry with it very great weight of authority. Our prediction is substantiated, that while the Legislature may favor some amendments to the Constitution, they will certainly not order an unlawful Convention to do the work. Our friends abroad may well congratulate us on this evidence of stability and good principle being in ascendency in Hawaiian affairs. As we go to press, it has become quiteclear that the sense of the House is wholly against the proposed Convention. Even the King is said to have become alarmed at so democratic a measure. His own royal prerogatives might be no more safe than any of our rights and privileges in the hands of such an irres- ponsible Convention. We deeply regret to hear of the very serious illness of the venerable Mrs. Clarissa Armstrong, now in her eightyfifth year. Some four months since, she was thrown from a carriage at Santa Clara, and has not recovered from the effects of the accident. She was lately removed to her home in San Jose, but continues to decline in strength. We learn.that there is still another survivor besides Mrs. Armstrong of the Averick reinforcement of 1832, Mrs. Spaulding, who returned home a widow, about 1836. THE FRIEND. Rev. C. M. Hyde, D.D., returned to Honolulu on the 19th ult., per Australia, apparently improved by his touring. His labors have, however, been arduous, and the nervous strain severe, in constantly writing to, or interviewing a very large number of persons, in reference to their possible suitableness or willingness to engage in various departments of religious or educational work here. Some workers he secured, who have accompanied him to'the field. Others with whom he has conferred, may yet determine to come. Those who have come to engage in Christian work for the Portuguese, have elsewhere been named. Mr. F, A. Hoamer has come to be President of Oahu College, and Mr. J. (). Woods as Assistant. We greatly regret that no one has yet I een found to assist Dr. Hyde himself in the work of the N. P. Mission Institute. Of all men, Dr. Hyde is himself the one we could least afford to have breaking down from overwork. October. 1890. The Kawaiahao Female Seminary has begun the new school year with 111 pupils. One of the most valued and experienced of the teachers, Miss Hopper, left on the Australia last week, called home by family necessities. The force of teachers is one of unusual ability and experience. Kamehameha Boys' School begins its third year with 120 pupils occupying its dormitories. Mr. Oleson has two lady and five male assistants. There arj also fifty-three young boys in the Preparatory School under the charge of Miss Malone and three lady assistants. We congratulate the Hon. C. R. Bishop and the whole Hawaiian people on the rapid growth and success of these noble schools, which has been such as befits their munificent endowment, and the wise and able management. Rev. T.

Ewa Plantation began This pamphlet of 15 pages is devoted planting the new 650 acres Sept. 15th. to indicating some points in which this The big pump began working, and one Notice of Prof. Jas. A. Dana's eminent specialist on Hawaiian volcanoes differs from the views of Prof. Dana's great work. Without questioning the general high authority of the latter, we still believe that Mr. Green's vastly superior opportunity for study of our volcanoes entitles him to speak with great weight, even in opposition to a geologist of the first rank. Without doubt each of these writers has something to learn from the other. Mr. Green seems to us justified in regarding Dr. Dana as having misconstrued his expressions as to vapors appearing in great amounts over masses of hot lava. Our own careful observation certifies Mr. Green's explanation to be the correct one, in opposition to Dr. Dana, of the cause of the violentexplosions from under the overhanging borders of lava lakes. The lava was visibly flowing towards those points, and plunging down into them, carrying air with it, which becoming superheated, burst back with furious explosions. President Merritt and Mr. J. S. Emerson, who were present, agreed that the movement of the lava was as stated above. We, nevertheless, confess to being stronly impressed by Dr. Dana's arguments in favor of more efficiency of steam in volcanic action than Mr. Green would admit. The uniform and minute distribution of the vesicles does seem to imply a previous molecular union of the water with the lava such as could have taken place only in the depths of the lava column. On the whole there seems to be abundance of room for further study and speculation on that great and fascinating subject, which has been so nobly elucidated by both Prof. Dana and Mr. Green. We hope to make further notice of Prof. Dana's work, after longer examination. The N. P. M. Institute. Dr. Hyde was obliged to leave on his mission to the States before the Institute premises had been put in order. Much yet remains to be done in filling and laying out the grounds in front. Contributions of plants and shrubs are solicited, as also furniture for the rooms and clothing for the students. Rugs, pictures, bureaus, lamps are specially needed for furnishing the rooms: chairs, tables, and bedsteads will not come amiss, as new students are beginning to come in, for whom special arrangements must be made. The Institute will open for the work of the new year October 6. 77 THE FRIEND. well after another was connected with it. In a few days, an enormous stream was pouring out upon the upland from the six wells. The piston of the Blake pump is 36-in. diameter, with 36-in. stroke, with about 35 strokes in a minute. We believe that it lifts ten million gallons in 21 hours. The height raised is about 35 feet. The night pumping goes into a storage reservoir of large capacity, whose contents will be distributed in the day-time. The pumping is quite a spectacle, and attracts many visitors from the city, who run down and back by train in three bonis.

Once again the Secretary was absent during the arrival of reinforcements. But we judge that the brethren took it good naturedly. and excused him on the ground that in the discharge of his duties he cannot be in two places at once. And what a reinforcement for Hawaii ! Three earnest Christian workers, equally ready in English or Portuguese. Three trained leaders who have seen somewhat of both the Romish and the Protestant civilizations. They can tell a story worth hearing. At last we have an evangelical mission to the Portuguese established in Honolulu. Though no American laborer has yet been secured for the Chinese work, yet it is hoped that we may soon have a Chinaman in the field who is fluent in both English and Chinese, and who is a trained worker and an evangelist. We understand that he has been a successful leader in the Chinese mission at Los Angeles. His case is to come up before the Board at the next meeting. Mr. Frank Damon, the Superintendent of the Chinese Mission, is under treatment at Clifton Springs, N. V., a place whither so many overworn brain workers have resorted with great benefit to themselves. The plan there is to give nature a chance to do her own work of restoration. The best medical aid is furnished. The place is a home, and we understand that Mr. Damon is undergoing a regular course of treatment, and is in a fair way of speedy recovery. The Hawaii Pastors' Aid Society is— we think we are not premature in saying—an accomplished fact. Payments are to begin in January, and are to cover the last quarter of the current year. There are seven native churches in need of immediate aid, and for three more as soon as Pastors are found for them, aid will be required. This help comes none to. jon. Men are in the fiefd who have been fairly starved. One man was starved out and had to go to the seashore to bsh and get something to eat. .And \et this man has a good home in another district, and a tract of land where he could support himself in c< mfort.

"Yes, if I can get my wife to go with me." 79 THE FRIEND. Fact is she has so suffered from hunger in that O parsonage that she really dreads going back to it.

Fuller, - - Vacation. Editor. Another ride of about twenty miles had for its destination "Rose Ranch," at Ulupalakua. This was for many years a large and prosperous sugar plantation, with all its appointments on a grand scale; where cane could not grow a vast number of trees of many varieties were planted; plants and flowers tilled the yards with beauty and adorned the numerous cement walks which lead about in all directions. The number and size of cement cisterns for storing water still to be seen will astonish the average visitor. This was at one time the most elaborate and attractive establishment on these islands. It is now used as a stock ranch, where one may see some fine cattle and many things of interest, yet the place as a whole is little more than a ruin of its former beauty. The road over which we passed runs through an interesting portion of country dotted with the cottages of natives and several foreign nationalities, engaged in small farming and stock-raising. An extensive line of corn fields, aggregating about 2,000 acres, gave promise of a good harvest. The finest potatoes we have eaten in the country are raised in laige quantities far up the mountain side, above the corn belt in Kula. These lands are largely leased and cultivated by Chinese and Portuguese. Just as the days of our outing were being numbered we were happily surprised by receiving from the Board of Directors a generous extension of two weeks time for further recruiting. This was used with capital results, and we ha\e returned with greatly renewed vigor and courage to take up the work Master in the interest of the many •. >ung men in our city who need His saving help.

Our longing gaze turned upward along the gentle slopes of Haleakala, inspired by the grandeur of the scene and the memory of how, four years ago, we were one of a happy company who found not only a month of rest and pleasure, but new energy and strength for the work of life while riding and climbing that grand old mountain side. From Kahului the little iron horse went puffing along over the sands and red dirt which fortunately had been well wet down during the previous night. and we were soon at Paia.

J. S. WALKER, President fact that every voter in the country Had the which worked to the evident CONSTITUTIONAL CONVENTION. of the Legislature of the Hawaiian Kingdom. Sir:—The select committee to which was referred Bill No. 125, entitled -'An Act to convi tie delegates to frame a ConBtitutionfoi the Hawaiian Kingdom," and several other proposed amendments to the Constitution and acts relative thereto, report upon the first of said bills as follows: *"In treating the * question * ofthe urgent * oui constitutional law and whether there has been violence done to private or public right, it is well to compare the Constitution under which the country was governed from 18*54 to 1887 with that of 1887. It is remarkable, in examining the two constitutions, to find what few changes have, in point of fact, been made. It lly BUpposed that Hawaii was a Constitutional Monarchy, and it was only on account of the corruption and misgovern ment which it was seen was possible under the Constitution of 1864 that a demand, very nearly universal, was instituted for a change, and the change winch the country di manded was not in our form of government, but such a change as sb. uid assure to us constitutional representative government in fact as well as in name. It required but few changes to accomplish this, and these changes were accomplished by the Constitution of 1887, which was the result of a universal demand on tl of the people. Therefore, in a comparison of the two constitutions, we find that the changes which have been made Specifically define the powers of the King: make the Cabinet responsible in fact to the people through the Legislature; and takes from the King the naming of.one. and gives to the people the election of the two branches of the Legislature. It also takes away the power which might exist with a corrupt government to maintain itself and to perpetuate a wicked government by corrupting the legislative body with the offer of public offices. This latter principle is recognized in other constitutional countries. In England*, it is a matter unheard of to permit government officers to interfere in an)- manner with elections, and. in the same manner, no member of Parlianient can be purchased by the gift of an office under the Crown. The Constitution of 1887, exactly as much as that of 1864, maintains Hawaii as a constitutional monarchy, and the provisions to guard the throne are specific and clear in their nature. The Constitution of the United States and of many of the States recognizes the same principle with regard to the legislature and office-holding as is set forth in our Con- necessity for a change in mediatclv swore to sustain it. people universally or in ■ large majority objected to this Constitution and refrained from taking the oath to support it, it is needless to say that the position would have been so embarrassing that a new Constitution or radical revision ot ;he one promulgated would have been an absolute necessity.' If the government had been so corrupt that it were evident thai the Constitution were incomplete or that, under its provisions, corruption and misgo\ ■eminent could and great wrong be done, then some cause would exist for the outcry which has been made bj few against it. The real cause of the outer) which, at the present time, undoubtedly is made by S large number of people in the Kingdom comes from the fact that the prejudices of the ignorant and that the worst of all prejudices, race jealousy, have been aroused by a false and wicked appeal to that sentiment. It is not true to say that the native Hawaiian is deprived of an}- rights by the Constitution. He not only retains all the rights which he ever had, but, by our new fundamental law, he obtains rights which he never had, and tha mere proposition to giant which, a few years ago, would have been looked upon as an idle dream. It is not true to say that the Hawaiian is not entitled to vote for Nobles. The list of voters for Nobles throughout the Kingdom will show that half, it' not more, of the list is made up of Hawaiians. The object sought to be obtained in representative government is to prevent rash and hasty legislation by having one department of government act as a check and balance tothe other, and, in the legislative department, this end is sought to be obtained by the institution of two branches of the Legislature which shall be so dissimilar in their origin and nature as to still further check and control the enactment of laws. The lesson taught to us by hisl that any country which is governed by the representatives of one class only of Ople Boon becomes the prey to illdevised, bast\- and injurious laws. To prevent such an issue was the object striven for by the framers of the Constitution of 1:887. All of the men in the country possessed of ordinary intelligence practically are entitled to vote for one branch of the legislature. In order to insure a conservative element therein the other branch is elected by those whose possession of property or the receipt of a moderate income indicates intelligence of more than an ordinary nature, sobriety, industry, skill and conservative tendencies, and yet the real object which is apparently sought by those who would have a new constitution framed for the country is to break provisions advantage of all the people. This provision is amply sufficient to rectify ordinary Wrongs or inconveniences or to do away with any clanger hich appears to be imminent in the future. To overturn the Constitution by providing a new one in any other manner is revolution, and revolution is justifiable only on the ground that the law and the government has become' so corrupt that the people have an overwhelming cause of complaint; that they are subject to aggrievancei and abuses that cannot be borne, and for which there is no remedy except the overturning of the Government and the Constitution). A glance at the condition of the counts and the position of the inhabitants thereof shows at once that no such causes exist, and that there is no reason why a Constitutional Convention should be called if the object be merely to furnish relief for grievances. -, * * » # � The country was never more prosperous than now; business never more flourishing; the public health and education were never better cared for; perfect tranquility and peace would prevail excejit for the efforts of a few demagogic agitators who have stirred up the ignorant to believe that they now suffer wrongs that are intolerable, but which are, in fact, largely imaginary and do not exist. It is perfectly safe to say that nine out of even' ten of those who are supposed to desire a change in the Constitution, in order to protect them from wrong and restore to them rights taken away, do not know what the provisions of the Constitution are, nor do the)- know what the supposed rights are which they claim have been taken away. With regard to the delegation which went to His Majesty the King, asking for a new Constitution, it does not appear that they were delegates elected by the people generally, nor that the}- represented an_v one. except in a few instances, but themselves; nor did they represent the influential and representative people in the districts. The petitions sent to the Legislature bear evidence of having been gotten up by paities in Honolulu for the purpose of creating an excitement upon the question and sent to other districts for signatures. It is not true that in any respect the honor and dignity of the Sovereign have been humiliated or lessened by the Constitution. It is not true that any rights have been taken from any portion of the people. It is not true that such a radical change has been made in the government of the country as to affect, in any injurious manner, the rights of any one portion of the whole people. To pass the proposed bill will be sim- �82 THE FRIEND. ply to continue and even to increase the state of uncertainty and injury to public business and the general prosperity of the country which exists while constitutional changes are being urged. Should this bill become a law, for the next year or probably longer the whole country would be thrown into a state of feverish excitement, uncertainty and anxiety; business would be stagnated; works oi public improvements could not go on; Government officers would find their business largely interlered with; the Ministers and a large force of officers would be required to give time and attention to the various details attending the elections and the convention, and last, but not least, a great expense would be entailed upon the country which is not justifiable by any facts which now exist. To say nothing of the legal questions . involved, which are more particularly treated below, the authorization of a constitutional convention at the present time would be an exceedingly bad precedent for future guidance, for if the constitution of the country could be overhauled and remodeled or entirely revised every time the Legislature saw fit to authorize a constitutional convention, there is no telling where the dis- position to overhaul and revise would stop. [The illegality of the proposed Convention is then discussed, with extended citations of authorities.] Without citing further authority upon this point, your committee are of the opinion that the bill which has been submitted to us cannot be enacted and become law without a plain and flagrant violation of the principles of the Constitution which is now the law in this country. Without reporting at length at the present time upon the other matters referred to the committee, we desire to state that we are unanimous in support of amendments to the constitution, such amendments as we may deem necessary and this Legislature may pass upon.
