A Divine Providence, a controlling influence works in all human affairs There are occasions when more than at other times, we are made to feel that events are produced by a direction beyond human planning or foresight. Such a condition of affairs is that now prevailing in the powerful and wealthy nation of the United States. In the midst of abounding wealth, with their agricultural industries in the highest state of production, the land teeming with mines and manufactories, the nation is suddenly struck with a financial palsy, a business paralysis. It is so severe and pervading, that wealthy centers filled with banks are unable to make drafts or carry on exchanges with each other. The money is in the country. The property is all there. But a sudden panic of distrust has so befogged their holders, that they cannot proceed in the established channels of commercial action. Great houses and corporations go down like the tumbling of rows of blocks. One feels that the Hand of God is upon the nation. It is well for them, for us, for all men to be mindful of that loving, holy, awful Power above us Who can turn the minds and hearts of men The Blue Book accusation against the English missionaries in the New Hebrides of selling rum and fire arms to natives, when that trade has always been one of their greatest griefs, and the object of their deepest hostility, very fairly parallels Charles Nordhoff's impudent charge that the supporters of the Provisional Government in Honolulu were advocates of the Lottery Bill, when for months they had been strenuously denouncing that measure. Both these "misleading statements" are fine sample instances of the force of the name Diabolos or "false accuser," applied to Satan as the accuser of the brethren. The Kauai Industrial School. By an oversight, we omitted the publication of this valuable report in The Friend for August. This school is very dear to the hearts of its founders, who are putting into it a great strength of love and labor, and are making it a great educational power for Hawaiian boys, notwithstanding their lack of pecuniary means. It is such struggling, earnest work as this, which very commonly produces the most effective results, because it impresses itself so deeply upon the hearts and lives of the pupils. They are made to feel the per sonal power of loving sacrifice and devotion, as in the earlier years of Oberlin and Mt. Holyoke. Such schools have a noble future. 185)3. 65 The Friend. Number 9. New Wing of the Bishop Museum. The new wing of the museum is 42x65 feet, and when completed will cost in the neighborhood of $100,000, giving an additional space nearly three times that of the present structure. Prof. Brigham says the new addition has been constructed and especially arranged for a museum, and when ready for occupancy, in connection with the old portion, will far exceed any building in the world used for museum purposes. As an evidence of stability of the new wing, the walls are made double thickness and the floors in the basement are from six to eight feet in depth. The foundations in some places are as deep as fourteen feet. A large collection of shells numbering some two hundred and fifty varieties has been recently received as a gift from Mr. Bishop, upon which Professor Brigham is now engaged classifying and preparing for exhibition. Among the many improvements made recently at the museum are four large plate glass frames five and one-half feet high, and five feet wide, in which are kept the valuable feather cloaks which belonged to the Kamehamehas and which are valued at $100,-000 each. The glass for these frames cost the government more than $125. P. C. Advertiser. — The Treasury Balance has increased $60,000 during the month of August. The payment of salaries, however, at the end of the month will have taken off the larger half of this increase. Liberal expenditures for public works have been going on during the month. The financial condition of the government is excellent, and its position in every way is strong and assured. A Pleasant Reception was given by the ladies of Central Union Church on Tuesday, the 22d, to Rev. W. Rader of Oakland, who has ministered very acceptably, occupying the pulpit for four Sabbaths. The parlors were well filled ) about 200 guests being present. �66 THE FRIEND. [September, 1893.

Fine steamers now ply between all ports of the islands, affording satisfactory assurance of a speedy trip, with all conveniences and Comforts. And to a still greater degree are the improvements in our communications with the outside world. In place of the occasional vessel to and from the Mexican or South American Coast, with a foreign mail oftentimes six months en route, we have now our regular sail and steam lines with San Francisco, bringing us oftentimes the events of the world in sin days, with regular packets with other Pacific Coast ports, the Colonies. China ami Japan, Boston, Liver- pool, 1!n men, etc. some few 11l things we have perhaps retrograded in the past quarter century, but though our harbor has not boasted sheltering 200 ships at a time since the "palmy days" in the early fifties, we can show growth to a more uniform and substantial basis, both commercially and financially, than the dependence upon the whaling fleet allowed. During the seven years of plenty at these islands from the visits and refitting of whale ships, from IS'i.i to 1889-, the value of our annual imports ranged between $1,029,669 to $1,590,837, and our exports from $472,996 to $'.i:t 1 ,:t-'9, of which latter from one-third to one-half were foreign re exports. The customs revenues during the same period averaged less than $ I -10,000 per annum, and the internal taxes ranged at about $01,000 a year. 'The annual taxes the past few years have exceeded halt a million dollars, and the customs receipts keep still ahead each year. The value of our domestic exports the past ten years, which has ranged from $8,133,344 to $13,874,341, has st times more than doubled the total imports each year. Our industries, almost wholly agncul tural, which may he safely said now to exceed $15,000,0011 per annum, have developed since the decline of the whaling fleet, and largely within the past twenty years. 'The Custom House gives no figures of exports values for 1843, hence, the above development is entirely with in the period of The Friends existence. May the next fifty years witness as satisfactory advancement. THE FRIEND. First Mention of the Puritans. I have in my posession a detailed account of the tempei of parties in England, drawn up in the year 1885, three years before the Armada came. 'The writer was a distinguished Jesuit. The account itself was prepared for the use of the Pope and Philip, with a special view to the reception which an invading force would meet with, and it goes into great detail. 'The people of the towns London, Bristol, etc.—were, he s.ivs, generally heretics. The peers, the gentry, their tenants, and peasantry, who formed the immense majority of the population, were almost universally Catholics. But this writer distinguishes properly among Catholics. There were the ardent, impassioned Catholics, ready to be confessors and martyrs, ready to rebel at the first opportunity, who had renounced their allegiance, vvho desired to overthrow Elizabeth and put the Queen of Scots in her place. The number of these, he says, was daily increasing, owing to the exertions of the seminary priests ; and plots, he boasts, were being continually formed by them to murder the Queen. 'There were Catholics of another sort, who were papal at heart, but went with the times to save their property, who looked forward to a change in the natural order of things, but would not stir of themselves till an invading army actually appeared. But all alike, he insists, were eager tor a revolution. Let the Prince of Parma come, and they would all join him ; and together these two classes of Catholics made three fourths of the nation. "The only party" he says (and this is really noticeable), "the only party that would tight to death for the Queen, the only real friends she had, were the Puritans (it is the first mention of the name which I have found); the Puritans of London, the Puritans of the sea towns." 'These, he admits, were dangeri his, desperate, determined men. The numbers of them, however, were providentially small. The date of this document is, as I said, 1885, and I believe it generally 'The only mistake is that accurate. among the Anglican Catholics there were a few to whom their country was as dear as their creed -a few who were beginning to see that under the Act of Uniformity Catholic doctrine might be taught and Catholic ritual practised ; who adhered to the old forms of religion, but did not believe that obedience to the Pope was a necessary part of them. One of these was Lord Howard of Effingham, whom the Queen placed in his high command to secure the wavering fidelity of the peers and country gentlemen. But the 67 Vol. 51, No. 9.] force, the fire, the enthusiasm came (as the Jesuit saw) from the Puritans, from men of the same convictions as the Cal vmists of Holland and Kochelle; men who, driven from the land, took to the ocean as their natural home, and nursed the Reformation in an ocean cradle. 7. A. Frouile in Longman's. — Enlisting Japanese for Guatemala. Captain Walter 11. Ferguson has been in Honolulu for several weeks past, en- gagingJapaneselaborers to go under con tract to work on coffee pi nt.itions in Guatemala. He has secured about IM| whom he proposes to forward .is an advance- party. Captain Ferguson 111, iv be remembered as the party vvho last year secured a shipful of laborers from the Gilbert Islands, and conveyed them to Guatemala on the steamer Montserrat. 'There was n ii .plaint of fraud in securing the l.ihoiers, which was done under the observation of a British War-ship. They appear also to have been veiy well treated on the voyage. It is alleged that there has been great mortality among on the plantations in Guatemala. Of the truth of this we know nothing. 'The Japanese Consul and other authem thoi ities here are greatly opposed to their countrymen going to Guatemala, with which country Japan has no treaty to secure them against ill usage. One Antone Cloys and others have written to the papers denouncing the ill-treatment and hard fare of contract laborers there. Professor W. T. Brigham who is a high authority, also gives unfavorable testimony. The general character of both social and political conditions in Central America gives strong presumption against security and protection being well assured by law to contract laborers from foreign lands. They are a class easily oppressed and needing strong and upright rulers and magistrates to secure their rights. Captain Ferguson has caused Antone (Hoys to be prosecuted for criminal libel, as well as the editor of the paper in which Cloys' statement appealed. It is certainly important to the cause of justice and humanity that all such enterprises as those of Captain Ferguson should be thoroughly scrutinized. Journalists who aid in doing this are rendering an eminent public service. Ferguson and his attorney Paul Neumann were conducting their operations with a secrecy which no doubt may be quite consistent with honorable and humane intentions. Yet in view of the past terrible abuses attending labor shipments, we are glad that the Star and the Advertiser have turned their search lights upon the whole business. �68 Departure of Minister Blount.

About the middle of the month the Government began to receive specific information of the ripening of a second active conspiracy to overthrow the Pro visional Government and to restore the Queen. The recources of the conspirators were totally inadequate, and their scheme foolhardy, and unlikely to be actually attempted. It was thought, however, the proper thing to have the facts reported in an informal manner to Admiral Skerrett, he being the chief official Representative of the United States in the absence of an American Minister. This was done on the evening of the 17th. Although the Government needed no help and asked for none, the Admiral sent instant orders to the Boston and the Adams to be prepared for an immediate landing of their forces at any time. The plans of the conspirators involved dynamite explosions and firing of the city in many places simultaneously, giving occasion for carrying out the standing order as given by Mr. Bayard in 1887, "to protect the lives and property of Americans, and to maintain pub lie order." The shore liberty of the men was stopped for four days, in order to keep them in readiness. The Government at the same time placed its special patrols on duty, and took other measures as provided. This attitude of the Governmentand especially of the naval forces had the effect of disheartening the conspirators. The ac tivity of the Admiral on the side of order had a particularly discouraging effect upon their adherents. No arrests are likely to be made. Al though there is a moral certainty as to the leaders concerned, it is quite another thing to establish their complicity before a jury, as has been cltarly shown in the acquittal last week of the conspirators arrested June 23d. An important result of this affair has been secured, in establishing the fact of a virtual protection of the Provisional Government or something very much like it, being exercised by the United States forces. Although the American flag was taken down on April Ist, its protection appears to be resumed. Deepening the Upper Harbor. The Dredger has been at work the past fortnight near Brewer's wharf at the upper end of the harbor, deepening the water at the wharves so as to admit the larger ships without obstruction. The mud is discharged upon the unfilled grounds of the Oahu Railway Company. Numbers of native boys are there saving the old bones pumped out, which bring half a cent a pound. Many old coins are pumped up. An old anchor and chain proved too heavy for the suction pipe, besides stopping the revolving cutter which roots up the mud. 69 THE FRIEND The Volcano Road. By latest reports we learn that carri nearly to the 24th mile post. The remaining seven miles traverse much better ground where the road should make rapid progress. In November 1790, the region around the crater was covered with gravel by a tremendous'explosive eruption. A large part of the uneven prominences of the pahoehoe lava were buried by the gravel. The road is now entering this smoother gravel district. The Olaa crown land lots fronting on the road, according to the /'. C. Advertiser, have all been leased, and many of them are being cleared and planted. By a condition in the leases, the forest is to be left standing for a depth of 250 feet from the road, excepting in front of the dwelling houses. The Kona Coffee Company have leased 24 lots of 50 acres each in Olaa. 200 acres have already been prepared for planting coffee, and 500,000 young plants are growing from the seed in the nursery. Philip Peck has leased a tract of 48 lots or 2400 acres, for a coffee estate. The surveyor E. D. Baldwin reports I 13,750 young coffee trees now growing on the Olaa Crown lots, and fifty buildings erected. All this is a small beginning of the results to flow from opening this rich but in accessible country by means of a good road connecting it with a sea port at Hilo. Some of the finest lands are in the rear of those which are staked out; but they are now wholly inaccessible until a branch road shall be built, or what will be better, a new and shorter route to Kilauea be opened, several miles north of the present road which makes a long detour to the southward. 'There are great tracts of rich moist clinker forest lands in that region admirably adapted to raising products of the temperate zone, such as potatoes, apples, peaches and the like, as well as coffee. These lands are from 2000 to 3500 feet in elevation, and are destined to be the garden spot of the Islands. All these go to show that Hilo is superior to every other sea port in the islands in the ex tent and richness of its back country. It has a great future, and we believe, not a distant one. ages now run Kilauea Active. The latest report from Kilauea is that last Sunday eve, the 27th, the ten acre fire-lake welled up mightily in a huge tide of fire, overflowing and carrying away all the parapet walls it had built up. and filling up the entire bottom of Halemaumau, converting the whole hundred acres into a broad sheet of surging lava. This was the biggest show since the last collapse three years ago. At the rate the bottom of Halemaumau has been rising or filling up, it cannot be many months before the lava will get high enough to commence burrowing out through tunnels and pouring out over the open floor of the main crater. This will initiate a new period and style of exhibit, one more interesting in some respects than the present; but the show is likely to become less accessible and convenient to visitors. Indeed there cannot be anything at Kilauea much grander than the great firtlake playing its fountains as now. Acquittal of Sinclair and Walker. These two men who were arrested near the end of June on the charge of conspiracy, were acquitted by a jury vote of 9to 3, on the 25th. The evidence was perhaps hardly sufficient to create such a certainty of their guilt as to secure an adverse verdict from an ordinary jury. The great object of the arrest, however, had been gained in the disorganizing of the conspiracy, and the securing of a good degree of public tranquillity in place of the disquiet and alarm fostered by the frequent boasting of the conspirators. A Sad and Singular Fatality on the 27th befel a young native named Hanuwela, or Hunnewell. He had been for several months employed as marker at a 500 yard target at Kakaako beach, where he sat protected by a bulkhead made of a double casing of plank filled with sand. It was his own duty to inspect the bulkhead and see that it and the sand were in safe condition. When the shooting began, he failed to make the signal, and was found lying dead behind the bulkhead. The high tide had undermined the casing, and partly washed out the sand. He had neglected inspection, and an ill-aimed shot had made the most of its evil opportunity and found the heart of the hapless youth. Hanuwela had been an esteemed pupil One of the Kamehameha School. might moralize much on such an incident. The Hawaiian Star gives a statement made by "a prominent employee of Claus Spreckels" that he had "transferred all his property on these Islands to his sons and daughter, so as to put it beyond the reach of any possible confiscation." This seems to refer to the allegation that Mr. Spreckels was in complicity with schemes to overthrow the Provisional Government. The Star goes on to give the substance of a deed Three thousand bunches of bananas of Mr. Spreckels recorded July 14th, 1893, conveying to his daughter a large were delivered from Ewa to the steamer number of pieces of real estate in this Australia last week by the Oahu Railway. city. �70 THE FRIEND RECORD OF EVENTS.

Juliette Smith. Malumalu, Kauai, July Ist, 1893. Dr. J. G. Paton Slandered. The latest complaint against Protestmissions in that quarter is leveled against Dr. J. G. Eaton, it would appear. It is official, being printed in a recent blue book. The charge is that the New Hebrides missionaries sell intoxicating drinks and firearms to the natives; and further, that they go away from their stations on holiday, in marked contrast with the Roman Catholic "Fathers," who are spoken of as sticking to their work. Now the simple facts are that the priests made no attempt to settle in the New Hebrides so long as their lives or property were exposed to danger. It was left to British Presbyterian missionaries to face the dangers of the situation, in which six of them lost their lives. It was only after they had made 15,000 converts, and thus rendered life and property secure in twenty islands of the group, that the French appeared on the scene; and as for any real converts, these "fathers" have made none at all. The Protestant missionaries are all abstainers; and, so far from selling rum and firearms to the islanders, Dr. Eaton was sent here to America to endeavor to secure our consent to the prohibition of that traffic. "The other nations Dr. Eaton says interested have said they will agree with Britain in this prohibition if America agrees to it. But as America has hitherto refused to agree, these curses of humanity—used by all traders there except the British—are causing much misery and loss of life. The whole responsibility of these evjls for some years has now appeared to rest on Christian America. But her good President and those under him are now reconsidering the whole question, and we hope God will lead him and them ere long to enter this clamant prohibition, and lead all the Powers interested for humanity's sake to agree, and so save our dear islanders from extermination through the greed of gain—at any cost—of godless traders." Dr. Paton is of the opinion that this attack upon his errand to America and Protestant missions is inspired by the French traders, or by the N. Y. traffickers in Kanaka labor. ant : Evangelist. — �72 [September, THE FRIEND. Kawaiahao Seminary. There seems tp be reason to felicitate the trustees and patrons of this honored and favored school for its prospects for the coming year. The capable Princi pal arrived last week from her tour East whither she was sent last May to study school work, and also to secure a new corps of teachers. She has brought with her seven ladies selected mostly from the excellent state of Ohio, and some of them from the well approved Oberlin. We doubt not they will prove all that could be desired, and that the school will receive a noble impulse under their efforts. With the improved prospects of the Hawaiian people in the removal of the corrupting influences of the Monarchy, our Girls' schools rightly supported, will contribute essentially to the uplifting of the people.

God has made us to feel, that we may go on to act. If then we allow our feelings to be excited, without acting from them, we do mischief to the moral system within us. The Scriptures must be rrad by us in the same spirit that dictated them; thus also must they be understood.
