Disastrous Wreck of the "Tamerlane."
At 12:30 a.m. of February 2d, the
whaling bark Tamerlane ran ashore at
Keonepoko on the coast of Puna, Hawaii, sixteen miles from Hilo. The
coast was a bold lava bluff over deep
water, the sea breaking upon ledges at
the base of the cliff. The ship broke up
in a short time. Nineteen men, including the third, fourth and fifth officers,
succeeded in reaching the rocks over
wreckage which had become jammed.
The other eighteen, including the captain, and first and second mates, were
lost, most of them in an attempt to leave
the ship by boats, which were swamped.
The bark was only nineteen days out
from San Francisco. The land was
supposed to be at greater distance. The
sea was somewhat rough and the weather thick. No danger was apprehended
until the ship was nearly in the act of
striking. Capt. Walter Howland, and
Mates Charles Tucker and Allen Wilber,
lost, were all from New Bedford. Only
one body was recovered by the searchers.
The rescued seamen found relief at the
neighboring ranch of Capt. Eldarts, and
by him were conveyed to Hilo, where
Vice-Consul Furneaux relieved their
necessities, and forwarded them to Honolulu.
A solemn requiem service was held in
the Hilo Foreign Church on the 7th, at
which the 19 survivors were present.
This has been the most serious marine
disaster on record in these waters, except the loss of the Kulamanu, which
disappeared with nearly 100 people, last
seen entering the Hawaiian Channel,
some thirty years ago.
It is not often that the end comes to
men in form so sudden and terrible. We
cannot help the seamen that died. What
can we do for the living sailor-men, who
face danger and death so constantly?
They need to know the Savior, and to
feel his arm around them in the parting
hour. So do we all.

The "Australian" Ballot was used
for the first time in the late election,
and gives general satisfaction, although
there were many blunders made by illiterate voters. The polling was marked
by quiet and good order.

might daily consult. As she and her
people have made great proficiency in
learning to read and write, I comforted
her with the hope that she might ere
long possess God's written word, which
might in a good measure compensate
for the want of a living teacher. In her
manner of conversing on religious subjects there is much intensity of feeling
mirrgled with true humility. Upon the
whole the word of God appears to have
influenced her heart together with some
of her people to have cordially embraced
the Savior. In the afternoon I preach

sweet and precious hours apart in private
meditation. The rugged and lofty
mountain scenery enclosing us on every
side, save that washed by the ceaseless
waves of the Pacific, seemed to shut me
out wholly from the world, and lead me
to adore the Mighty hand who laid the
mountains in a balance, and takes up
the isles as a very little thing.
"In the evening during conversation I
learned some of the traditions concerning this valley which not a little diverted
my mind. As tradition reports, it was
originally the residence of Oaken and
Opapa,* the God and Goddess who
made Hawaii and all the others of this
group of islands. The story relates that
they were produced after the ordinary
manner of generation, in the order in
which they stand to each other; viz..
Hawaii the elder sister, Maui the second,
and so of the rest in order. After Opapa
had brought forth the islands, men were
then created in the same manner, she
also being the mother of men. The
first man that was made stood erect indeed, but with jointless arms, connected
to his body by a web of skin, and legs

joined together in the same manner.
Mawi, another deity, angry at this motionless statue, took him and broke his
legs at the ankle and knee, and tearing
the arms from the web that connected
them to his body, broke them at the
elbow and shoulder.
"But as yet he had neither fingers or
toes. Hunger impelled him to seek for
food in the mountains, where his toes
were cut out by the brambles in climbing,
and his fingers were also formed by the
sharp splinters of the bamboo while
searching with his arms for food in the
ground. By these fortuitous circumstances the human frame was perfected.
"Monday, 19.—Owing to the high and
impassable mountains between this place
and Waipio, and which here terminate
in lofty and abrupt cliffs that overhang
the sea, I found it impossible to proceed
along the shore.
* In order to
shorten our route, we ascended the
mountain that encloses the valley by an
inland and unfrequented path, which
proved extremely laborious and difficult.
» * We were obliged to crawl on our
hands and knees, and holding fast by the
grass, to pull ourselves up. * * We
ascended in a sloping direction towards
the interior. In a few hours we arrived at
a level and fertile region that extends along the foot of the mountains on our left.
We passed through several ham*lets *where
schools were established. In
three of these I had the pleasure to
preach the Gospel to considerable numbers who had never before heard it. I
likewise received several presents of
fowls and potatoes for myself and company to refresh ourselves. * * After
travelling until 8 o'clock, we concluded
to pass the night in a cave on the bordei

at the entrance of the Bay.
"Byron's Bay, Dec. 2X—Arrived at the
house of Mr. Goodrich just after sunrise,
cold and wet by the sea, but after taking
a cordial, felt relieved from my oppression. Found Mr. G. and family in
health, and just removed into their new
thatched house, built by order of Kaahumanu. It stands on the west side of
the bay, about 30 rods from the beach,
upon a piece of land recently granted him
by Government. It is pleasant indeed
after many days of travel and fatigue
among the heathen, over mountains and
vallies, exposed to storms by day and
vermin at night, to repose once more in
the bosom of friendship and Christian

The house was filled and good attention
given in general to the word. But it is
to be regretted that no better example is
set, and no more countenance given to
religious things by Koahou the chief at
this place. He still retains three wives,
and revels in all the abominations of
heathenism; while neither he or bis people are often at church. Such an example from a principal chief has a pernicious effect upon the common people,
and accordingly there are found more
open opposers among the natives of this
place than at any other station. Still
there is much to encourage to persevering effort in maintaining this important
outpost. Schools are multiplying and
knowledge is increased. There is also
a praying circle, and a few individuals
give evidence of hopeful piety.

thinly peopled, and little besides a tall a reverence for the worship of God."

A

Brief History of the Hawaiian

People'
by W. D. Alkxandkk. Published by
order of the Board of Education of the
Hawaiian Kingdom. American Boot
Company, pp. 3i\'and 7 maps.
This long delayed History has at last
arrived, and we are favored with a sam
pie copy. The publishers have really
done justice to the excellence of the con
tents. It is a beautiful book, outside and
within, as well as a choice piece of work,
in literary, scientific and historical merit.
The binding is tasteful, not show)'.
The paper is nice. The type is large,
open and clear. The numerous head
ings are conspicuous in antique type.
The seven maps are distinct, well colorad, and reasonably accurate. The mi
merous illustrations are carefully select
ed, and generally quite well engraved,
some of them new to us. A few of the
royal portraits are perhaps a little haul
in the expression, but all are thoroughly
recognizable. The half-dozen photo
types are very good, especially the line
portrait of her present Majesty.
The Author -for his work is no compilation -tells us that while the book is
intended for use by higher classes in our
schools, it is also a history for the bene
fit of the general public. In a rapid
survey, every paragraph has seemed to
us to bear witness to the author's industrious and original research, as well as
to his judicious selection, and severe but
skillful condensation of the immense amount of material in his hands, both old
and new.
Notwithstanding thii crowding of
material, the book is anything but haul
reading. The style is pure, easy and
entertaining. We find the book thoroughly fascinating. It seems to be
highly accurate, as well as impartial in
its treatment of facts. Noting his limitations, the author says,"A history that
aims to be both unsectaiian and non
partisan must necessarily be incomplete.
The dark side of the condition of the
people in ancient times, and of their intercourse with foreigners had to be in
great part ignored." Like all the products of the human brain, the work will
prove open to criticism, and we shall
look to take a hand ourselves in some
friendly criticism. But we have no
doubt that Alexander's Hawaiian History
will long be the standard work Km
general use and reference.
The thirty-six chapters are divided into three parts, viz., I. Prehistoric Period;
11. To the death of Kamehameba; and
111. Later History. Under the first
head are given the Physical Geography,
the Origin of the Hawaiian People, and
the Ancient Hawaiian Voyages. These
are followed by eleven valuable chapters,
involving the most laborious research,
upon the ancient customs, laws, worship,
religion, superstitions, ceremonies, festivals, arts, manufactures, amusements,
etc., etc. On these points especial credit is given to aid from Mr. J. S. Emer-

son. The whole is a compact, lucid,
and animated arrangement of Hawaiian
antiquarian lore, and a strong framework of such knowledge for the preparation ofall who desire to delve deeper in
the mine.
The reliable history of Part 11. begins
about six hundred years back, becoming
more definite from about I 150 A. I).
From the birth of Kaniehameha in 1796,
the history is in full detail. From 1810
onwards, the author has been enabled to
add materially to previous knowledge
from search of government archives and
a variety of old manuscript records.
Like advantages have copiously aided
the preparation of the Later History of
Part 111. It begins with the abolition of
Idolatry and the introduction of Christianity, and closes with the accession of
Liliuokalani, occupying fifteen chapter*.
and 176 pages, or a little more than one
half of the book.
There is a good Table of Contents,
and what is apt to be lacking, a seemingly copious Index. The work is certain
to be in great demand by general readers.
We presume that like other school books,
it will be sold at a moderate price.
Hawaiian-born resident! have cause
to be proud of such a literary product by

Father Bishop's Journal.—The portions of this journal for 1825 7 appear
in this issue. Ol especial interest to
some, will be the account of the earnest
piety and religious inquiry of Mrs. John
Young, who was the grandmother of
the late Queen Emma. Possibly the
tradition of W'akea anil Papa as reported
may present some new features. The
Involution of Man as herein described,
though "unscientific," has points of interest, especially as illustrating the action ofthe untaught Polynesian intellect.

THE FRIEND.

-

Editor.

Mr. Theo. H. Davies, of the firm of
Davies •&amp; Co., of this city, and whuis
now residing in Liverpool, England, has
again come to the help of the Hoard,
and again it is a thousand dollars.
There are those who deeply appreciate
the relief which such generosity brings.
By the kindness of the Waianae
Sugar Co., and of Mr. Alliens, the plantation manager, and of other friends, the
Waianae Church has been able to Very
materially enlarge the accommodations
of its parsonage. In place of an old
house formerly occupied by a leper, and
which has been used as an eating house
and store room, there has been erected
a very sizable structure with dining
room, pantry and kitchen. And the old,
tainted building that we used to enter
with a shudder has been removed.

It necessitated the keeping of practically two schools, one in ljueen Emma
Hall, and the other on the premises of
the Chinese Church and Y. M. C. A.
The growth of this feeling has brought
a change of method. The boys and
the girls have been brought together,
the little ones in the lower rooms of the
church ami the larger ones in the upper
rooms of the Y. M. C. A.
This has been the arrangement since
the beginning of the term, and so far
has proved entirely satisfactory. It has
the advantage of affording the girls better quarters, and also of a very material
reduction of expense, live teachers now
being able to do the work which formerly required seven.

It is not thought wise for the Hawaiian Hoard to oiler to pay the salaries of
possible missionaries who may be secured for better conduct of the native
work. We cannot do this in addition
to what we are already doing.
While the A. B. C. P. M. refuses to
help us care for strangers who have
come to us without the knowledge of the
Gospel, we believe it is ready to reopen
its all but closed work among the Hawaiians. This is it-, original mission
among us. It is ours to proclaim to the
parent Hoard our urgent need of help in
this direction, and we shall be wise if
we ask our brethren ol the native ministry to join Ul in this request, and prom
ise to any who may be sent us a warm

Business Meeting.
In the unavoidable absence of both
Ihe President and the Vice-President,
Mr. P. J. Lowrcy was called to the chair.
About 30 members were present.
The Treasurer's report showed Receipts for the month, $333.80; Disbursements, $222.7 ft; leaving a lialance on
hand of $101.Oft.
The (ien. Secretary, Mr. Peck, in his
report says,"The feature of the month
has been the Bethel Hall meetings."
A large number have been converted,
some young men, but more ol those who
are near middle life. Several large pho
togravures of Vistas of Hawaii suitably
framed in koa wood have been hung in
the reading room, and matting has been
placed under the tables, considerably mi
proving th*j room in appearance. Mr.
Ripley reports the work of the Temperance Committee merged in that of the
Hethel Hall evangelistic meetings.
Mr. Hidwell reports the members ol
the Visitation Committee having made
14 calls at the Hospital, 31 special sick
calls, and 3 visits to the prison; 38 in all.
The Entertainment Committee report
a Y. M. C. A. benefit in the Association
Hall on the evening of the 33rd inst., at
which the Hawaiian Camera Club will

assist.

The Employment Committee's report
of very numerous applications for employment was followed by quite a full
discussion of the matter by several ol
the members. Later in the evening
this important subject was resumed.
Mr. C. M. Cooke reported a meeting
of the Finance Committee. The financial outlook seems satisfactory.

The collection amounted to $S.l.r &gt;.
It was moved by Mr. Howen that a
new committee be formed, to be known
as "The Harbor and Shipping Commit
tee." Several of the older members
made remarks. Key. S. F. Bishop gave
us the history of the old Hethel property.

Certain documents in his possession

show that a sum of $1,000 is now held
by the "American Seamen's Friend
Society." of New York, that might possibly be obtained for special work among
sailors, such as Rev. F. N. Greely has
lately been engaged in. The resolution
was carried, and the new committee will
endeavor to get together all the informa-

tion on this subject.

It was moved by Mr. C. M. Cooke
that Mr. H. W. Peck be invited to remain with us another year as General

as, indeed*, we believe it will be to the
whole Association. Many who have
not become outspoken as to their convictions have at least, by their continued
presence, shown great interest, and we
believe the_\' have had man)' impulses for

Enthusiastic Meeting at the

The following extracts from the BosJournal of Dec. 16th, tell of the
meeting.
"Huston's philanthropists and those
interested in the negro and the Indian
gathered in the Old South Meeting
House Tuesday noon for the purpose of
furthering and carrying on the work
commenced by General S. C. Armstrong,
who now lies in a precarious condition,
suffering with paralysis at the Parker
House. The meeting was an enthusiastic one; one might say it was necessarily
so, because the great men whose words
from Boston's pulpits and whose sentences from ready pens will go down in
the history of the metropolis of New
England were there, and with the utmost
freedom sanctioned the work carried on
by the Hampton Institute. General
Armstrong, were he present, might well
look back over his life spent in endeavoring to educate the ignorant and exclaim,
'The hour of my success is now.'
Burning words from the lips of such
men as Phillips Hrooks, Dr. Ha c, Rev.
Samuel Hliot and Dr. G. A. Gordon,
who are strangers to Battery, heaped upon the fallen lit ro the praises of grateful
people."
Rev. Edward Everett Hale said: "The
General has done more for the reconstruction of a nation than any other
man in this country, I believe. He has
committed himself to the work in a
practical and business like way, and to
those persons who come to me soliciting
my aid for other schemes I say to
them, 'Take care of Hampton, your
own school.' I will use one expression
of (ten. Armstrong's and say that when
you send a teacher to the South or West
you send a man wlio will deal personallygwith the inhabitants, and that is what
we want."
Rev. Samuel Hliot D.D., said: "The
school takes a class of young men and
women in charge, few of whom are prepared in any way for education, and
commences to instruct them. Soon its
ton

favored schools, and which I would not
dare claim for Boston's schools, and
which exists in no way in our great
colleges. When the farewell sermon
had been preached to the class of'9l,
the thirty-three graduates, men and
women, stood up in front of the pulpit
and, in words I never shall forget pledged themselves to the service of the
Master."
Rev. S.J. BatTOWl was the next speaker. He said: "The best virtue of work
is the work itself, and let this message
be carried to the sick Principal, that of
the angel of old. 'I know thy works,
and thy love, and thy faith, and thy
service, and thy patience, and thy last
work is more than thy first.' When the
smoke of war cleared away there was a
black cloud on the horizon, and that
cloud was a race of 100,00(1 slaves, crying aloud for assistance, and General
Armstrong stepped from the front of a
regiment in blue and answered the call.
What has been put into the work is best
illustrated by what has come out of it.
The whole South feels the influence of
the Hampton Institute."
Rev. H. H. Frissell, Chaplain of the
school, spoke upon the needs of the

of all was the raising of the (15,000
with which to make the year's accounts
balance.
''We need more $70.00
scholarships, which will increase the
revenue of the school, and we want more
from churches and individuals. I hold
here the first page of a hook which will
appeal next February, entitled 'Twentytwo Yean at Hampton,' the life woi k of
the General. If you could manage to
give one of these books to those families
here in Boston who do not believe in
the work, you would be doing a great
favor."
The next speaker was Hooker T.
Washington, a pupil of the school. He
is a clean-cut negro ofabout 2ft years of
age, and surprised his listeners by his
address. His language was well chosen,
his utterance perfect, and in a well
modulated voice eloquently related the
condition of his people, their wants, his
ambitions, and softly spoke of the great
love which his class bears for Gen.
Armstrong. "We worshp him," he
said, "and when one of us workers becomes negligent, indifferent or selfish
we are supported by the thought of our
Principal laboring for the love of men."
The Rt. Rev. Phillips Hrooks said
"We are not here especially to pity
Gen. Armstrong, for I believe he is to
be congratulated more than pitied. A

emancipation, and by his eloquence has
melted the frozen extremes of prejudice.
The man and his work have been closely connected and by the work is shown
the man. He has accomplished the
ideal of his life."
This committee was then appointed
Dr.
to solicit funds for the Institute:
Samuel Hliot, Mr. Henry Woods, Mr.
R. H. Steams, Mrs. Mary Hemenway,
Mrs. William Claflin, Mrs. Alice Freeman Palmer, Mrs. Ellen F. Mason,
Mrs. E, C. Holden, Mr. Elbridge Torrey,
Rev. Edward G. Porter, Mr. Edwin 1).
Meade, Mr. Frank Wood, Mr. J. W.
Davis. The meeting adjourned at 1:30
o'clock.
DEATH OF THE BISHOP OF OLBA.

It is with hearty regret that we record
the sudden decease of the very excellent
Bishop of the Roman Catholic Church
in these Islands, a man whom we have
long known and highly respected.
"Father Hermann" as he was familiarly known before his elevation, surnamed
Koeckmann, was from the Rhine, of
German Birth. He joined the R. C.
Mission here in November, 1851. At
the death of the aged Hishop Maigret in
1881, he was promoted to the vacant
Bishopric, with the titular diocese of
"Olba" (in partibus infidelium). He
was in his 64th year.
Father Hermann for a long time ministered to the English-speaking people
of his church in Honolulu, and was most
favorably known to them and their Protestant friends. The late Rev. Artemas
Hishop very highly esteemed him, after
frequent contact with him in his often
visits to Mr. Bishop's son-in-law, during
a long sickness.
They had much friendly and good-tempered controversy.
The Hishop was struck with paralysis
on the morning of the 18th ult., and died
without farther consciousness on the
evening of the 22d. The body lay in
state in the Cathedral during Tuesday,
wearing the miter, and holding the crazier, with burning candles, and Hawaiians waving Kahilis. The funeral on
Wednesday forenoon was an imposing
one, and was attended by the state officers, Diplomatic Corps, leading citizens,
and chief representatives of the different
churches.
It must be very difficult to suitably fill
the place of a prelate so intimately acquainted with the peculiarities of his
diocese, and personally so acceptable to
all classes, including the Anglo-Saxon
and leading element.
