On motion of A. Bates, Esq., the Society
voted to award a silver cup to the master,
silver medals to the officers, and bronze
medals to the crew of the Hawaiian vessel

On leaving the church, there chanced to
lull into our hands a programme, on the back
of which we found the following memorandum "It is amid such scenes as these that
the sailor feels himself a man again."—Signed Taylor." Now Mr. Sailor-man, we welcome you to scenes social, scenes domestic,
scenes holy—and we hope you will always
find a goodly company seeking your good.

wandered away from home and chosen the
life of a sailor. Some two years ago, a
young man left his home in Western Pennsylvania, and ere the parents could overtake
him, he had shipped on hoard an American
whaleship bound to the Pacific. They followed him to New Bedford, but the vessel
had sailed. Letters were forwarded. They
reached him, and he wrote home. Those
parents fondly hoped he would return.
When the vessel left Honolulu, a year ago
lasi March, it appears be endeavored to make
his escape on a board, but the almost certain
probability is that he never reached the shore.
No farther trace of the unfortunate young
man can he ascertained, hut his anxious and
afflicted parents, like one of old, almost "refuse to he comforted." Letters an I daguerreotypes have come to hand, ill the hope he
might he identified, hut all in vain.
We do hope this may prove a sober and
solemn warning to seamen never to trifle with
a parent's heart, or recklessly endanger their
own lives, This young man. however, did
one thing that imparts groat comfort to those
afflicted parents ke wrote to them. In one
letter he spoke of his efforts to instruct his
shipmates. What comfort thai ietter now

a letter dated Au<_r 16, she thus refers to the

If you had known that dear boy, you
would have all idea of our loss, in one of
his letters while on the (lorn/ Return, he says :
Mother, I know that you would like to
know how I spend my Sabbaths.' He then
said there were some of the crew who could
not read ; that he taught them on the Sabhath, and read his Bible to them. There was
more tout fort to me, in these irnrds, titan if he
hutl si nt home n million of money."
When we know that there are hundreds,
aye, thousands of mothers, deeply, if not
equally anxious, it urges us to do all we can
for seamen.
Will you not, sailors, embrace every opportmiity-to write youranxious parents, brothers,
sisters, friends ? Go not to sea, without
sending off one or more letters. Call at our

" For, 10, I will command, and I will sifl

corn is sifted in a sieve, yet shall not the
least grain fall upon the earth."
Here is a pledge or promise ol God, that
the Jewish people shall not he lost. They
are scattered abroad, hut not lost or forgotten. They have wandered among all nations,
Inn they do not linda home among the nations. They look to Canaan or Palestine as
their home. It would seem that the " Wandering Jew " ever maintained such a position
that at any moment he might pull up and
"start away" for the promised land I In
the countries whither he wanders, he does
not manifest a desire to become a land-owner
and tiller of the soil, because then he would
acquire a fixed habitation and permanent
dwelling-place. "The present existence of
the Jews," an eloquent writer has beautifully
remarked, "is perhaps the chief sign of the
times in which we live. Their very being is
a miracle. Like their bush on Mount I lurch,
they have survived amid the flames of incessant persecution. The names of Athenian,
Roman, Theban, Spartan, live in the records

A Prudent and Thoughtful Sailor.

A sailor who visited Honolulu a few months
since, thus writes us from Madison county,
N. V., under date of August 23 :
" I came home in the same ship that 1 was
in at Honolulu, Young Vlurn.ij. VVc did
not touch at Oahu, hut Lahaina, or I should
have called and paid yon for the books you
gave me. We arrived in New Bedford,
April 7th, 1557. I cleared on the voyage
$200, so I concluded to stay at home with
my Friends, and not go tn sea again, You
know something of a sailor's heart ; so now
I will come to the ease |n hand. I have
thanks (o oiler lor a revival of religion in my
heart when I was in Honolulu. The love of
(>od, which I hail professed, had grown cold,
hut while attending meetings at the Bethel,
it was revived."
11 is cheering to learn that there are those
among seamen who are steady, saving, and
inclined to serious things. Would that the
number was greatly increased ! If sailors
now visiting Honolulu, squander their hardearned money, associate with the vicious and
corrupt, the fault is their own. They have
no one (n blame hut themselves, ilow pleasant and gratifying il would he to see all
seamen prudently saving tlnir money, to take
to their friends, or expending ii in a manner
which would contribute to their happiness
and respectability. Sailors, think over ibis
matter!
ASailor's Hope in Christ.
Some months ago we met a seafaring man
who had weathered many storms, cruised in
all seas, and tried in various [daces to obtain
happiness, hut at last, after many months of
reading and reflection, and no help but his
Bible, and good hooks, concluded to seek the
Lord as his portion, and take Christ's yoke.
This man thus writes us from Callao:—
"My dear friend, there are many temptations and trials on hoard ship, bin the Lord
holds me up. I shall never he able to thank
Him enough lor what He has done for me,
for I shudder when I look hack and see what
I have been, and wonder the Lord spared me
no long. 1 would not one tip my hope in
Christ if 1 could lie the King of England, and
have all the world under my control, for
what should.) he profited to gain the whole
world and lose my soul. No! away with all
the world, and I will hold fast to my faith in
the Lord Jesus Christ, for He is my only
hope, my Rock and Ily Salvation, and In
Him will I trust, and Him only do I desire
to serve while I live. That is my prayer
•every day."
Such a calm and settled purpose to adhere
to the right way, bespeaks the power of an inward principle, the very same as that sustaining, animating, and cheering the good of all
ages. It is the heaven-bom principle of faith,
the same as sustained a Noah, a Abraham, a
Daniel, and a myriad of God's faithful servants.
The scoffer may scout, the infidel

"Thursday. Sept., 21.—The sick kanaka

I was reading in my hunk, that I was not

He was a little sore in his breast ami hack,
and complained of cold just before he died.
Ills cheeks were hollow, and his hinlV oiiiaelaled to that of a child's. It was laid on the |r\

The Little Friend and the Great Independent.—

"The Honolulu Friend, a little
double-sllCCl newspaper, about the si/c ola
even-by-nine jiane of glass, but always one
of the mosi welcome of our exchanges, gives
an encouraging account of tract distribution
in the Sandwich Islands, through the agency
of the Hawaiian Tract Society."
rr7* We copy the above from a late NewYork Independent, a threat double-sheet newspaper, about the size ofn seven-by-nine counterpane of cotton, but always one of the most
welcome of our exchanges, which gives u discouraging account of tract distribution in the
Southern States, through the agency ol the
American Tract Society.
A Promise Well Kept.— Forty years ago
mother stood on ihe green hills of \ erinont,
holding h\ the righl hand a son sixteen years
old, mad with love of tin- sea. And. as she
stood by he gate en a sunny morning, she said
"Edwin, they tell
for I never saw the
ocein —that the great temptation of the seaman's life is drink. Promise me, before you
quit your mother's hand, that you will never
drink."
gave her the promise, and went
the broad globe over—Calcutta, tie- Mediterranean, San Francisco, the Cape ol Good
Hope, the North Pole ami the South —I never
sawß glass filled with sparklingliquor that my
mother's form by the garden, on tie- »rrcn
hill side of Vermont, did not rise before me
and to-day, at sixty, my lips are innocent
of the taste of liipior."
If the young man commencing a seafaring
life could be induced to make and keep such
a promise, how confidently he might look
forward to advancement, promotion, success
and wealth. We would especially commend
a consideration of this matter, to several
young men now in the port of Honolulu, and

"I have just received tbe particulars of the
