ACCORDING to a London journal the Hindoos,
tired of their passive position in the matter of con-
version, have determined to organize a mission for
the propagation of Brahminism among the be-
nighted English Christians in Australia. Suradschi,
the new apostle, is an eminent Brahmin of Benares,
who. while visiting the Australian Colonies. was
struck by the fearful prevalence of drunkenness
among the inhabitants. Returning to his native
country, he called together a meeting of Brahmins
at Benares, the holy city of the Hindoos, and laid
before them details of the miserable and degraded
condition of their tellow-subjects in Australia. A
large sum of money has been subscribed, and sew
eral Brahmins have placed themselves at the dis
posal of Suradschi. who is busily engaged in trans.
lating portions of the Vedas into the English
tongue for the use of Missionaries.

The Famine in North China.

To the Editor of The Pacific Commercial Advertiser:
With your permission 1 would like to communi-
cate, through the columns of your paper, to the peo-
pie Of the Hawaiian Islands, the most deplorable
condition Of the famine stricken people Of North
China. In this part of China the harvest Of 1876
was unusually short. The consequence was consid-
cradle suffering from famine. Reports from Shan
tung, Chilli, and Shansi, state that the famine this
winter is far worse than that of last year. The full
extent Of the distress is not yet known, but the es-
timated area Of the provinces FAMED, is $4,000
square miles, aud the population embraces 10000
900 people. The condition OF the people, owing
to the severity of the winter, aud the entire want
of provision is terrible. No doubt thousands are
p~erisbing now. but timely aid Will succour many.
This people expressed Il most lively gratitude for
aid rendered them last season, and it is reasonable,
therefore, to suppose that they will be equally i'm
pressed by assistance in their present distress.
| make this appeal to the generosity of the Haw-
aiians. because L am personally most Intimately
acquainted with them. Among them the first light
of civilization dawncd upon me. Having enjoyed
their advancement and generous friendship through
d space of eight years, from 1864 to 1872, | natur-
ally feel closely allied and indebted to them.
From them | gained the first rudiments of my edu-
cation, and although l have been away from them
FOR five years, | still cherish the most lively graft
tude for favOrs done me. and shall ever have the
welfare Of their interest at heart. Having received
so many kindnesses from them myself, | I'M en-
bOldened to implOre aid i'll behalf of my starving
cOuntrymen. When the United States and the coun-
tries of Europe are needing the heart-rending cry
of their fellow men. | feel assured that the noble
hearted, generous Hawaiians, will not turn a deaf
car. but will render all assistance in their power.
And it is my belief, as it is my most earnest desire,
that such an action upon the part of your people.
will result il Il closer alliance Of the two nations.
All donations will be most thankfully received
and instantly forwarded to the destitute, by my
father, Along. in the city of Honolulu.
Yours truly.

TIE British Trade Journal furnishes some
very valuable concerning the sugar
production of the world, which can not fail to
be read with interest by our Hawaiian sugar
growers. At the suggestion of the British
Board of Trade, the Sugar Refner's Committee
has recently compiled An Approximate Statistical
Report on the production of sugar through
out the world, and the quantity that is taken
for the purposes of sugar refining. The average
production Of each country in round numbers
is given, rather than the yearly shipments.
The information has been CLEANED by the Com
mittee from official and commercial sources.

SHPwREcK-The American bark II. " Carleton,
from Hongkong with 400 Chinese immigrants, was
off this port on Monday last. but owing to the
prevalence of a nOrtherly wind, stood off towards
Molokai. Shortly after dusk she struck on the
reef on the north point OF that island. and driven
by the breakers went over the reef and on to the
sand-bcach, where at last accounts she lay with
seven feet of water in her hold. No lives were
lost. and some 200 of the Chinese have been
brought to Honolulu by coasters. On Thursday
on receipt of the news of the wreck, the L. 5. S.
DeRsdcold proceeded to Molokai to render any
assistance that may be possible. 1t is deemed I'M
likely that the vessel can be got off. Sheriff
Everett, from Lahaina, was on the spot, rendering
all requisite assistance in his official capacity. He
received intelligence of the wreck at h~alt-past one
O'Clock on Wednesday morning. and proceeded at
once to Kaunakakai, taking with him some bags
of rice, as it was reported that the Chinese were
in a starving condition. Prior to leaving Lahaina,
he requested Mr.. Turtcn to allow the Nellie Merrill
to call at MOIokai to take as many of the ship
wrecked people to Honolulu as she could carry,
which was eventually done. Captain Hardness
and wife and sister were at Kaunakakai. and
taken care of by Mr.. Meyer. The vessel lays
about 200 yards from the beach. \ portion of the
cargo has been Issdsd. The vessel was insured
for 5000.
