This body, which represents all the Profess
tant Native churches of the Islands, held
occasional sessions during June in the lecture
room of Kawaiahao Church, beginning on the
sth of that month.
! The officers were Rev J. Waiamau, Modera-
tor, and Revs. S. E. Bishops and G. Puuloa,
scribes, the records being kept in Hawaiian
and English. All the business is done in
Hawaiian.
The foreign members present were, from
Hawaii, Rev. Messrs. 7. Ccan, E. Bond, and
A. o. Forbes.
From Maui, Rev Messrs. W. P. Alexander,
and S. f. Bishop.
From Oahu, Rev. Messrs. D. Baldwin, B. W.
Parker, L. Smith, D. D., ]. F. Pogue, H. H.
Parker, D. Dole and Mr.. E. o. Hail.
Native members consisted the great majority.
Among the best known who were present were
Messrs. Papaula, Luhiau, Waiamau and Kao-
nohimaka, from Hawaii; Messrs Kuaea, Pal
kuli, Waiwaiole, from Oahu Messrs. Mahoe,
and Puuloa, of Kauai; Messrs. Publ and A.
Pail, from Maui, and Kekoa of MoloSai.
Two days were occupied in reading the re-
ports of the proceedings of the six Island Asso-
Citations, the Reports of the State ofthe Churches
in each Association, the statistics of each of
the sixty churches, and the Reports of the
leading seminariesc connected with the churches,
especially that of the Theological Seminary
The reports from all parts of the Islands
indicated much that was unfavorable, but not
much a decline of religious activity among the
better class of church-members, as notable
increase of unchecked vice among the people
at large.
A most interesting and encouraging examina-
ton of the Theological Glasses was held before
the Association on the 18th.
On Thursday the 10th, the Annual Reports
of the Corresponding Secretary and of the
Treasurer of the Board of the Association were
presented, after the reading of which, the
Annual Election of officers was held by ballot,
resulting in the reelection of Rev. J. F. Pogue
as Corresponding Secretary, and Mr.. E. o. Hall
as Treasurer.
The outgoing triennial class of eight members
of the Board were also all reelected, except
rice G. W. PhilipO, Rev. Joseph Manuela.
An unwonted interest prevailed during seve-
raj of the half-hours of Prayer with which the
daily sessions were opened.
Resolutions were adopted, advising the
maintenance of the Marquesas Mission, with
early reinforcements Also, after long dis
cussiOn, advising the Hawaiian Churches to
devote an increased portion of their contribu-
lions to the home department. The Association
adjourned on the 2lst tt. convene again June
6. 1876.

Magazines &c.

THE MoNrHLIEs which have arrived during
the past few weeks, have been unusually at
tractive, and we'll deserve the patronage they
receive. Among them Harper's stands first
as it is also the oldest. In the May number
the article on "The Concord Fight" illustra-
ted, is very interesting and valuable histori-
cal sketch. Other articles, among them "Amer-
lean Humor," are equally noteworthy. The
June number which also lies on our table, is
hardly less readable. The profuseness of its
illustrations will excite remark, particularly il
the Hogarthian caricatures. No person should
fail to read this publication.
ScRIBNER's Monthly, which, we notice, has
swallowed up cold and New" improves with
each successive number. "The Story of Sew
enoaks," by DR.. Holland, has become thrilling
ly exciting, and has very naturally increased
the circulation of this periodical. Its table Of
contents presents a rich bill of fare.
THE JUNE ATLANTIC opens with poem by
T. B. Aldrich, Spring in New England" be-
ing memorial poem, and closes with one by
Lowell, code read at the Concord Centennial. -
Robert Dale Owen tells remarkable piece Of
secret history under the title political Re
suits from the VarioIoid." President Eliot of
Harvard, has an article on Wise and Unwise
Economy in Schools" following which are 4
number of readable and attractive articles, one
of which is from the pen of Mark Twain.
LIPPINcorT's Magazine is a Philadelphia
publication not so we'll known as the above,
but hardly inferior to either It's leading arti-
Gle describes trip up the Parana, in Paraguay,
South America.
ST. NICHOLAS, always eagerly looked for
by the young folks, is full of funny things. By
the way, we notice that this magazine has swal-
lowed up six of its rivals, and stands fair
chance to absorb the rest The June num-
Der begins with a charming frontispiece, and
throughout glitters in good engravings full of
life and activity. The contents are more than
usually interesting, and embrace long list of
stories, sketches, poetry, addresses, tales, puz-
zles, histories, ETC., ETC. 1t is the most COM
plete little folks magazine extant.
HARPER's WEEKLY for June 5, has capt.
tai cartoon by Mast, on its first page, showing
the landing of Uncle Sans Rife team on the
coast of Ireland to engage in the Irish Rife
Match in June. The British Lion stands erect,
reprimanding his Prime Minister, Disraeli, for
his fears about having armed persons in Ire

Light ON thc European situation.

Lord Derby's statement of the part taken by
England and Russia in preserving the peace
between Germany and France, goes far to con-
firm the substantial accuracy of the alarming
reports which few weeks ago seemed TO indi-
cate rapidly approaching outbreak of HOSTILE
ties. 1t is perfectly apparent in fact that Ger
many did seriously contemplate an assault upon
France, and there can be no reason to doubt
that such an attack was prevented solely by
the joint protest of England and Russia. More
than this, Lord Derby's statement shows that
the danger is by no means over, but that as he
expressly declares &c the causes of dispute are
liable to recur" So far as can be seen at pres
ent, they are not only liable, but certain to re-
cur, for it is the old story of the wolf and the
lamb, and the lamb can do nothing which will
not serve as a pretext for attack The arma-
ment of France must be considerable, to MAIN
tain her independence as a nation, and for moral
effect. But she cannot raise it to even the old
standard without being accused of secret de-
sire to renew the war, while if she disarms I'M
der menace she might as well abandon all
thoughts of retaining the position of first
rate power. 1t is certainly not surprising that
the French Government should "regard the
representation made by Germany as the pretext
for fresh war;" for it is very difficult, even az
this distance, and viewing the situation with
out bias Of any kind, to reach different con-
clusion And though for the moment, while
the friendly Offices of England and Russia have
averted the impending war, it is not probable
that there can be permanent condition of
peace. Bismarck psuses, but does not forego
his purpose. 1t has long been evident that
Berlin did not rest satisfied with the outcome
Of the late campaigns. The marvelously rapid
rehabilitation of France convinced the astute
Chancellor that he had underestimate the Vi
tai energies of his antagonist and what was
fully intended to be permanent defeat had
proved only temporary check. In fact the
result had been, by giving the world an Oppor-
tunity of Witnessing frances elasticity and
wealth of resources, to inspire her with great
er confidence than ever. After passing un-
harmed through such an ordeal, she might well
think herself immortal, and if the work was
stayed here, the efforts of Germany would prove
to have been expended for nothing. Such rea-
sonings could not afford a justification for an
other war, but they assuredly emphasized its
expediency, and doubtless went far to convince
German statesmen of its necessity. And be-
cause this reasoning is unanswerable from the

school Examinations.
rAsr MAr1 rrMAIE sE,L1NAnr.

The examination of this seminary took place
at Makawao June "a. The institute is under
the care Of Miss Carpenter, who has been as
sisted the past year by Miss Mary Parker. On
the occasion Of the examination, the building
was more beautifully decorated than any other
we have seen this year. The young ladies, IS
in number, all appeared very neat, and be-
haved throughout the exercises in a mostlady-
like manner. They spoke wholly in English,
and so distinctly that not a wordwas lost
In this respect this examination was nOtewor-
thy. The first class in reading and grammar
was particularly entertaining, which is more
than can be said of some of our youthful reci-
tations. The arithmetic classes, especially the
mental, were very good and evidenced excellent
teaching. In Geography, the young ladies
showed they had been well drilled. We must
not forget the spelling match, which embraced
the whole school. The words given out, by
the excellent principal, Miss Carpenter, were
of such a nature as to cause us to be thankful
we were not among the spoilers. We have
never seen so many good spoilers together be-
fore. Word after word was given out, some of
them the very words which had caused the
downfall of so many in our Honolulu matches.
Still, so few sat down that it seemed an end
less task. But at length the teacher becoming
exhausted, with few well aimed blows, in the
shape of words entirely new to most of the pu-
pills, succeeded in vanquishing them. 1t was
rather remarkable that the two who stood long
est were sisters. The rhetorical exercises
were scattered through the examination and
were all excellently rendered. This pleas
ant examination closed with very sweet origi-
nal song, the words and music composed and
sung by five of the older girls.
We were then invited to partake of gener-
GUS repast, prepared by the young ladies of the
school, beside which long dining table was
loaded with bread, various kinds of cake, pies,
and other nick-nacks for sale, the sum received
to be expended for a new stove. In almost less
time than it takes to write these lines, the ia
bic was cleared and the seminary was fifty
dollars richer One thing in this school we
we're much pleased with, the teaching of the
younger by the older girls, showing that their
teacher not only impaired to them knowledge,
but also taught them the art of imparting it to
others. We learn with regret that this valua-
bic institution is about to lose the efficient ser
vices of Miss Parker to whom with Miss Car
penter great credit is due.

Mixed Colleges.

In 1867 there were in the United States only
twenty-five colleges open to men and women
alike. In 1873, "The report Of the United
States Commissioner Of Education announced
that the number had increased to ninety-seven.
The same report showed that only IL per cent
of the academies and normal and high schools
Of the country are for boys alone, while so per
cent. are for boys and girls to- gether. Also, Of
the 100 commercial colleges reporting to the
Bureau, at least 10 per cent are conducted up
on the co-educative plan.
In Switzerland, since 1854, women have been
admitted to all departments Of the University.
During the last Summer twenty-eight young
women were matriculated at the University Of
Zurich. There are now at the University Of
Berne thirty-fve lady pupils, who enjoy ell
the privileges for study accorded to the other
sex. In August last, Miss Sophia Won Kowal-
esky graduated as Doctor Of Philosophy and
Magister of Liberal Arts, at Gottingcn, and
about the same time Berne conferred its first
medical degree upon a woman, bcstowing with
it marks of the highest distinction.
At Paris and at Vienna women are welcomed
to University instruction, while they are re-
ported in attendance at Rome, Padua. Milan,
Leipsic, Breslau, Gottingen, St Petersburg,
and Upsala. In one or two Of these institu-
the admittance Of women into all departments
is not yet formally sanctioned, but it may be
anticipated from a growing liberality Of admin
tration that the time is not far distant when
every bar to their free entrance will be remov-
ed.
The convocation of the University Of London
has within the year voted, eighty-three to six
ty-one, to admit women to all degrees on pre-
cisely the same terms as men. The "Univer-
sity examinations for women have led to the
establishment Of co-educative classes and
schools in most Of the large cities in England.
The University Of Cambridge alone superin-
tends such institutions in sixteen different
towns. In London, during the past year, col
lege has adopted as it corporate name, "Col-
lege for Men and Women," and it already has
nearly 500 students in attendance. In Cam
bridge, NEWMAN Hall, and Gerton College
have been established in order to give women
facilities for a higher education, and more than
two-thirds of all the professional lectures Of
the University have been thrown open to them.
The Edinburg University still closes its
doors against women, but there is Significance
in the fact that the British Parliament has en-
tertained bill for breaking down their bars,
and that in the memorials in favor Of the bill
there was petition signed by twenty-six Pro-
fessors of Scotch Universities, and by 10000
women. The growing agitation throughout
Great Britain of the subject of a higher educa-
ton for women indicates that it viii not cease
until the same opportunities for learning are
accorded to girls that are enjoyed by their
brothers. 1t also indicates that the idea of
co-education is continually gaining favor among
all classes Of people.

German standpoint, we are satisfied that the
war viii come, and that it viii not be distant.
The Intervention Of England and Russia can
only be diplomatic. England can interpOse no
material check to the prosecution Of Bismarck's
plans, and Russia will not take upon herself,
single-handed, the championship Of France.
An alliance between France and England is
scarcely possible under the circumstances, and
an alliance between France, England and Rus
STA would be necessary to prevent the final as
sault upon the first named, or to battle the ven
geance Of Germany. Such partnerships are I'M
likely, at the best, and Bismarck is meanwhile

In this census the effects of the late war are
very evident. The population of Tutuila, not
engaged in the war, increased. On Savai,
which suffered much less from the war than
Upolu, the decrease is comparatively small.
On Upolu, where all the fighting took place,
and where villages and plantations were de-
stroyed, exposing the people to privation and
famine, the decrease has been very great. Had
there been no war the population would have
shown an increase.

IL a brief interview with Chief Justice
Allen, His Majesty's Minister to the United
States, who returned yesterday on the steamer,
we Learn that he expected to have returned by
the last steamer, but as he did not receive His
Maiesty's ratification Of the treaty till the 9th
Of May, he was unable to do So Immediately
on receiving il, he communicated the fact to
the Secretary Of State, who appointed the Srd
Of June as the day when the notifications should
be exchanged, and they were on that day
exchanged, by the Secretary of State and His
Majesty's Minister. On the following day the
Chief Justice left Washington for San Francisco.
So far as the action Of the executive of both coun-
tries is concerned, the treaty is complete. 1t
now remains for Congress to pass the necessary
law to carry it into effect, which we trust will
he done al an early day of the coming session.
THK reference to the government loan in the
last issue Of the Islander, would lead its readers
to infer that it is too much to hope that our
government can command foreign credit 1t
may be true that our loan is too small to gain
notice or be quoted in the money market of the
world; hut we find on enquiry that it is favo-
rably entertained by parties Of financial stand
ing both in England and Germany, and its
negotiation only requires time. II cannot be ex-
pected that this government or any other can
float a foreign Loan by simply forwarding the
scheme. There are many considerations which
require time. when the negotiation is under
taken by the regular course of mail. The law
authorizing the national loan provides, among
other things, for the assistance of the agri-
cultural and other productive interests of the
country" and we understand the government
view the Water, Immigration, and Irrigation
projects, as three very important matters, and
consider that by rendering aid to the two last
named, would be rendering assistance to
the agricultural interests of the Country"
THE letter of President Grant, declining
nomination for the third term of the presidency,
viii be found on our fourth page. He states
the whole question so plainly, and so emphatic
is his declination, that those in sympathy with
the Republican party will regret that his let
ter did not appear earlier. As general rule,
where public officer is compelled, by the
presence of public opinion, to make a denial of
published falsehoods, the sooner such denial is
made the better. In this case, the Republican
party has lost much of its prestige and sus-
tanned defeats which can only be attributed to
the popular doubts as to his real intentions.
The publication Of this letter twelve months
ago, would have added greatly to the strength
of that party, and placed it in a less doubtful
status tnan it now holds
