that the world always has and always will honor in

else, the mistaken being who pursues amusement as
cises that produce usefutend, may look with
on the laborer engaged in his toll but his scorn is
praise; his contempt is an honor. Honest industry
will secure the respect of the wise and the good
among men, and yield the rich fruit of an easy con-
science and give that hearty self-respect which is
above all price Toll on, then, young men and
young women. Be diligent in business Improve
the heart and the mind and you will find ssthe well

the confidence and respect OF all those whose respect
is worth effort to obtain.

has been sold to the amount Of $S, 500.
What seems to he most needed now, is proyis-
ION for the instruction Of the interesting and in
creasing numbers Of white and half-caste children
in the several white settlements on the Islands !;
but more especially in Honolulu: and for natives
who wish to acquire the English language
The most, in fact, nearly all, white settlers
speak the English language, and require to have
their children taught in that language But there
being no provision made for such instruction, by
law, it is irregular and uncertain, and, in some
places, not attended to at all !; as neither white
nor halfcaste children any where attend the pub
lie schools taught by natives.
Should such neglect continue, the sad conse-
quences cannot fail to appear in due time, in The
ignorance, vice, and degradation of this part of
our population. | venture, therefore, to suggest
to the Legislature, the enactment of law, to
provide for the education of the white and half
caste children, by special tax upon the white pop
ulation, to be under the control, however, of a
board or boards oftrustees elected by themselves
only accounting, annually, to the Kings Govern
ment for the funds they may receive. Ifany OBJ
ject to such tax, let him consider which be will
prefer, to pay light school tax now, even though
he may not be directly benefited thereby i'm the
least, or heavy and, perhaps, crushing tax by
and by, to support prisons, poor houses, police
officers, or perhaps, even standing army, to say
nothing of the ten thousand annoyances of living

With the exception Of the Royal School, none
of these select schools in which instruction is
given solely in the English language, are support
ed by government, and an account of them is Civ
en- here merely that the Legislature may have a
full view of all the provision that is made, of
whatever kind, for the instruction of the genera
ton that is now coming up 1t will appear evil
dent to ALL that the provision is not sufficient for
all. The revenue arising from the present school
tax entirely exhausted in sustaining the native
common schools, in which instruction is impaired
in the Hawaiian language only by native teach
ers and so high is the price of labor, that in
some Of the districts the school funds are barely
sufficient 10 keep the schools IN operation for
eight or nine months in the year. The only 9TH
er source Of revenue for the support Of the pub
lie schools, is the land that was appropriated for
that purpose by The last Legislature /; but as the

instruction of this most important class of chill
dreH.
The ROYAL SCHOOL.
Ii was stated in my last Report to the Legisla-
ture, that the Royal School had been so modified
as to admit other children than the young chiefs,
as day scholars. The plan has worked well, and
the school has accomplished much good. Fewer
evils and greater advantages have resulted from
the association of the races in the same
school, than was anticipated, while the introduc-
ton of day scholars from white families, greatly
diminished the expenses of the school to gov
ernment for the last year, which were only
$559,40.
In February, 1850, the services Of MIR. J. Full
Ter were engaged for one year, on salary of
$500, at the expiration of which time, that gen.
tleman retired from the school, and it has been
discontinued ever since.
But measures have been taken to procure
suitable teacher for this school from the United
States. Anticipating the vacancy, was author
lied by the King in Council, in November last,
to guarantee to aperson suitable for the situa-
ton, a salary of $500 year and letters have
been written to several distinguished friends of
education in the United States, to procure such
teacher. Replies have been received to some
of these letters, and the prospect is that teach
er will arrive during the Summer.
In the mean time the young chiefs connected
with the school, are either attending select day
.choSi, or are being instructed in music, both vo-
al .nc :ustfcruental, by gentleman of good
reputation for sti in this pleasing art, and their
progress is said to be srsrS commendab,e.

will accommodate 20 or 80 without incOnve-
nience. The situation is retired, cool and airy,
with good water at hand, and fine prospect of
the town. Should our present plans in regard to
the school succeed, it will naturally assume the
form of I'm Academy, with primary department
attached, where, not only the young chiefs may
be taught, but others also from the city, and diff
ferent parts of the Islands, who may wish to en-
Joy its advantages. Considering the rising pros
poets of Honolulu and the increasing number of
white families on the Islands, and the conse-
quenIiy increasing demand for an elevated stand-
ard of education, the desirableness of high
school in this central position, embracing also
instruction in the primary branches, is most ap-
parent and the Royal School thus modified in
to an Academy, viii not probably cost more, per-
haps not so much, to government as in its origin
al form, while its sphere Of usefulness will be
greatly enlarged. Ii is worthy of consideration
also, whether the school thus modified, would not
secure larger share of patronage, and higher
degree of prosperity, were its government
placed in the hands of Board of Trustees, cho-
sen partly from among the native chiefs, and
partly from among white residents. l have hut
little doubt thai it would, and therefore l COM
mend the subject to the consideration of the Leg
islature. United and persevering effort only will
he necessary to maintain, here, an Academy that
cannot fail to do credit to the place, and more
good to the nation, than can lie computed in sill
yer or gold.
1t may not be out of place to make remark
here in regard to another important select school
in the vicinity Of Honolulu. alude to that of
the American Mission at Punahou. OF its his
tory aud general character the Legislature is not
ignorant. Its location is hcalthfuI, delightful,
and not very inconvenient to Honolulu and il is
the only English school on the Islands, in which,
what are commonly called the dead, and some

islature, May IL, 1851.
10 THE MOBILES AND REPRESENTATIVES OF
THE HAWAIIAN ISLANDS IN LEGISLATIVE
COUNCIL ASSEMBLED
In presenting before the Legislature an annu.
al account of the Department Of Public Instruc-
ton, il is my design to furnish information, as
full and definite the data in my possession will
admi: of, and to present it in form as condensed
as possible. But the number and nature of The
points to be noticed will, fear, lead me to make
heavier demands upon your patience than could
desire.
The returns from the twenty-five school dis
tricts for the past year, have not been so perfect
and satisfactory as they should be, but they are
more SO than in former years, and indicate an
advance on the part of the school Inspectors, in
skill and general fitness for their offices, that is
not a little encouraging.

sion, the higher interests of education might b,
greatly promoted, by transfer of, both that in
sttution and the Royal School, modified rs he
fore stated, to the same Board of Trustees botf
open to the public, like similar institutions il
other countries the latter for instruction in m.
primary studies, and the former in the hghe,
branches. Their uniformity, efficiency, econo
my and system, might thus be promoted, and
with the fostering care of ofgovernmcnt, in few
years, we may see these two institutions sustain
ing to each other, the relation of Academy and
College, and oar Island youth relieved the pain
ful necessity of ofleaving their homes and travel
ling to the other side of the globe, in order 10
prepare themselves to enter upon the study of
either of the learned professions, or to acquire
liberal education. No such necessity should he
allowed TO exist, and will not be- if proper efforts
are put forth and wisely directed on sufficiently
extended scale. In what way such an arrange
n,ent may be effected, and what plan should be
devised for the government and support of these
institutions, is a matter Of detail that need nc;
discuss in this report but the aid of governmen,
IN one form or other, will doubtless ne called for
IN order to its accomplishment, and in no way
can portion OF the public money be better ex-
pended than in thus providing for the education
OF portion of our youth in these higher and
more difflcult branches, without which, the ma
ton must ever expect to depend upon foreign
ers, not only for its teachers, and professional
men, but for its rulers, The select schools in
which instruction is given in the native tongue
exclusively are of great importance to the pros
perty OF the Common schools. A large propor-
tion OF the teachers on Hawaii were taught in
the select schools at Hilo and KohaIa; in like
manner are the schools on Kauai supplied with
teachers from the select school at Waioli.
The SEMINARY AT LAHAINALUNA.
This Institution has been in depressed con-
dIton, during the past year, owing 10 the same
cause as stated in my last report, viz the alb
sence of, one of ITS teachers and the enfeebled
health Of the other. Efforts have been made to
procure the requisite aid In the instruction ofthat
:chooi, hut as yet without success, and it is i'm
possible at present, to tell when it can be resus-
;irated, and put in full and successful opera
ion.
Since the above paragraph was m;tten, an
