Another Opinion.

MIR. EDITOR On opening the supplement to the
Friend, under the caption g We left not one minute
too soon, - | was surprised to find a very positive
editorial opinion relating to the aband onment of the
whaling feet in the Arctic ocean. L say surpri sed,
for it is very rarely that the Friend takes sides /;
rather preferring the quiet middle ground, perhaps
with the desire to avoid controversy. The writersfor
the Friend has had a " conversation with q very
sensible and reliable first officer of one of the lost
ships,'' and comes to the conclusion that the aban-
dOnment was not premature. In fact the writer says
that this is "the unanimous opinion Of all the mas
tiers, officers and seamen with whom he has con-
versed - an honest admission that he had heard but
one side of the story, and upon this based a very
dogmatic opinion. The writer has heard an oppo-
site opinion expressed by some who never saw the
Arctic ocean," and considers 1t an easy matter TO
criticise the action of the captains in abandoning the
ships. l confess that, after reading the first pub
lished statements, prepared by the ship masters, L
was very much of the opinion of the Friend, but,
unlike the Friend, 1 waited to hear the other side
before pronouncing a decided opinion. / found it no
very difficult matter to hear the other side, simply,
perhaps, because | was willing to hear it. l, too,
have heard the statement of a very sensible and reli-
able officer of q ship, yes of two of them. and OF sew
eral seamen, and find that there is a wide difference
of opinion relating to the abandonment. / have not
heard the opinion expressed that the ships could have
been brought out bat that by waiting until later in
the season a chance might have offered, and that
waiting was not a very dangerous matter, after hav-
ing communicated with the outside ships. The day
the ships were abandoned was remarkably mild, 50
much so that one OF the masters, q leading spirit IN
the movement for abandonment, declared, in Ian
guage more forcible than elegant, that " it would be
a-disgrace to abandon on such a day." l
read the testimony of the Friends witness with
some interest, and confess TO no little disappointment
at the abrupt ending of the E" journal !" on the
18th of September. two days before the desertion Of
the ships. Possibly the witness could not be exam
ined farther with safety that he may have put upon
record an opinion at variance with that of the
Friend writer. ..f..
Now I am obliged to make the very damaging
confession that L never was in the Arctic ocean, and
here I may say that l do not think the Friend writer
ever was, yet, after hearing both sides of the matter,
| believe L am as well able to form an opinion as q
person who has heard but one side. ss
1 cannot concur in the opinion {" We left not one
minute too soOn.'' WOODEN, j.

Pater Familias speaks.

Mr.. EDITOR There has been a &" slight %unpleas-
antness " in my family this week. owing TO my pos
tive refusal to take tickets for the Concert at the
Court House., and with your permission l will briefly
state my reasons for what my wife (who has a con-
Stunning desire to be considered fashionable) calls
my - old-fogy obstinacy." In the first place. ] OBJ
ject on principle to the Court House being put to
any such uses by the Minister of the Interior. who
as l understand. has the control of all public build
ings. / thought he was right in refusing the use Of
that building n short time since for the benefit Of a
religious society, and Of course i think he is wrong
now for giving it for the benefit of a stranger, OF
whom we know nothing beyond the fact that he is
a pretty good piano thumper. and who goes out of
the country tomorrow. Secondly 1 am opposed to
encouraging our amateurs. ladies or gentlemen, in
exhibiting themselves on the stage for 1he benefit
of such strangers when we have in our midst so
many worthy charities-the Strangers Friend So
ciety. the Queens Hospital, etc.-for the benefit OF
which they have not yet condescended to display
their wonderful requirements. Sod.

Arrival of the /" Nevada"

The U. s.. N. H.. and A. s. 8. Neuada, Capt
BIethen. arrived at 7 p. NJ, yesterday. IA days
from Auckland. and with dates from Sydney to the
goth ult- A list Of passengers and memoranda
will be found in onr commercial column.
A dreadful murder had taken place at one of the
Swallow group Of islands, in the South Seas. The
Rt. Rev. Bishop Patteson and the Rev. Aiken, and
three natives were killed by the savage inbabi-
tants, in revenge, it was suspected. of some out
rage by a cruiser.
The Southern Cross delares its belief that these
murders are the result of a base system adopted
by kidnappers of personating missionaries.
On the 18th ult., on the passage to Sydney. the
Nevada run into a bark at night. which afterwards
proved to have been the a. II. Badger. from New
castle for Auckland, with coal. The crew Of the
bark were rescued on the next day by the bark
alice Cameron, and arrived safely at Sydney. A
court OF inquiry had been held, but no definite
conclusion had been arrived at-We are com
PEELED for want of space to defer until our next,

Mr.. EDIToR-0n the page of the Friend devoted
TO the Young Mems Christian Association. / find the
following -" The prompt interference Of the Minis
ter of the Interior with the coaling and freighting Of
the Webb steamers on Sunday, the I'D ultimo, is a
graceful assurance of quiet Sundays in the future,
and significant of a favorable solution of the Sabbath
questions in our community Let us all say, Amen.
Writers for the opposition press, myself among the
number, have always been on the alert to chronicle
and discuss any lapse of duty of the Ministry. and
now, when the Minister Of the Interior has taken a
stand for the lawful observance of the Lords Day, it
is only just and manly that he should be supported
and commended.
Let the Y. N. G. A., pass resolutions Of commenda-
ton, and let them be heartier than its utterances in
defense Of the proper observance Of the Sabbath.
