The Temperance Cause !:

Or rather, the question Of total abstinence has
been zealously and faithfully discussed in the two
great, enlightened, and progressive nations OF
the earth; Great Eritain aud the United States,
with rather doubtful results. Statistics show a
continued increase of alcoholic liquors, and OF
drunkenness in the lands, where jealous Father
Matthews and Coughs abound; and where no
such men are TO be found or heard; in France,
Spain, Italy, Greece, and other countries, they
really do not seem to be needed. A man with q
hope of success; and n woman with love will
never be drunkards. Where the lecturers
abound-as in London, Liverpool, Glasgow,
Manchester, New York, Boston, Chicago; there
the tipplers still more abound. Gin and whisky
flourish in spite of most faithful and Jealous de-
nunciation. And this is mentioned with regret by
n writer, who would rejoice to see total abstinence
from alcoholic drinks as q beverage prevail
throughout this Archipelago. But the curse of
England and America hangs on TO Hawaii. 1
have been wondering at the causes that curse
the most intelligent and public spirited countries
the most, with the evil of intemperance; and i
have been thinking, that in those countries where
material progress and enterprise are SO much
worshipped; and where mobiles and hereditary
factory lords, or railway and bonanza kings alb
sorb so much of the land and wealth Of a nation,
there are such multitudes of landless and hope
less people who crave stimulants. The squalid
patrons of gin palaces are all landless and hope
less. Excess is begotten Of hopelessness, lone
illness, cares and struggles. Extreme total absti-
nence discussion among people is still associated
with extreme drunkenness. The hosts of the
wretched guZzlers are the strength Of the liquor
production; and many Of the well to do fall into
drinking habits in disturbed or respondent
moods, only as they find abundant tempta-
ton at their hand. Now if there were two
million land owners in England, as in France;
instead of only about 80, 600 in England there
would be no more need of temperance societies
in England than in France; and If our legisla-
tive measures and governmental action in the
past had so shaped the order of things in this
country, that every native was settled 6redly ON
a Kuleana homestead, as in the Tonga Islands,
we would not have to deplore so much intern
perance among our natives. There are, il is sad
TO say, many drunkards in homes, and on lands
of their own. But the great majority Of sots
are the landless and the hopeless. It is no use
preaching temperance TO poor hopeless factory
hands in England and it may be equally vain
to expect the hands of our plantations to be
temperate, who have no future before them.
Let the rich, joining hands with the Government,
determine to lift up the poor, and IN such WORK
they will be the most effectual OF temperance
lecturers. oAD@

Marriage.

The marriage of Rev. R. Wainwright, and
Miss Willis on Tuesday last, at ST. Andrews pro
Cathedral, has awakened a lively social interest,
ON account of the high esteem in which the
bride, the sister of Bishop Willis is held in this
community. At the appointed hour, IL m.
the church was filled to its utmost capacity by
friends of bride and groom and others anxious
to be present at the interesting OCCASION. His
Elk. Gen. James NJ. Comfy, U. S. Minister
Hon. James Hay Wodehouse, H. B. NJ. Com
missioner Mons Feer, Commissioner of the
Republic of France and many others repre-
senting our most respectable society were pre-
sent in the church. The Reverend groom took
his place by the rail of the chancel accompanied
by Rev. Mr.. Whalley and Mr.. Won Holt as best
men; and shortly afterwards the bride came to
his side escorted by Commissioner WodehOuse,
who in the course of the ceremonial gave the
lady away. The bridesmaids were Miss Wode-
house and Miss Won Holt (chief bridesmaids),
Miss Amy Wodehouse, Miss Mary Won Holt,
Miss Green, Miss Mist, Miss Dora Dowsett, and
Miss McBryde.
His Lordship the Bishop, assisted by Rev
erends Blackburn and Mcintosh oficiated and
at the close of the ceremony, the Right Rev
erend gentleman delivered a short, and very
appropriate marriage discourse. There was
chaunted, during the ceremony, to music ex-
pressly composed for the occasion by Mr.. Wray
Taylor, the following beautiful
MARRIAGE HYMN.
Rest in the Lord; from harps above
The music seema to thrill,
Rest in His everlasting love,
Rest and be still.
Rest thou. who cIaimest for thine own
Thy chosen bride to-day;
Anhanced in His faith alone.
Thy bride for aye:
And thou, whose trustful hand is given
Avouching here thy spouse;
Rest. for q Father seals in heaven
His children's VOWS.
Rest, for the Heavenly Bridegroom here
Is standing by your side;
And in this union draws more near
His mystic bride.
Rest in the Lord; Thrice-Holy Dove.
In US Thy word fulhl;
Rest in His everlasting love;
Rest and be still. Amen.
There was much and kindly comment upon
the bride, her very tasteful bridal costume, and
words of affectionate interest in this gracious
and kindly lady were expressed on all sides.
Shortly after the completion of the ceremony
the bride and bridegroom received their friends
at the residence of Bishop Willis, aud later a
very large number of guests were entertained by
the Bishop. The ~refectoTy of Iolani College had
been appropriated for the dejeuRer but it scarce
Iy afforded room for half the ladies who assem-
bled to wish Joy to the bride and bridegroom.
About four the bride bid adieu to the scene of so
many gentle and pious labOrs to accompany her
husband to q new sphere of usefulness which
the Rev. gentlemen has prepared for himself at
Kauai. A number Of friends, chiefly of ladies, was
gathered on the wharf and on the steamer c.. R.
Bishop to see the happy couple " take their
departure for their future residence at Kapaa.
We Join with their multitude of friends in wish
ing them a long, happy and useful career in
their new home,

II The following is a sample of a goodly
number of cases that occupy the time, and try
the patience of the Police Justice. On Monday
Palau (w) was charged with selling liquor to a
native Hawaiian. Joseph Mauloa's sworn evil
dence was that he went to Kihikihi's house in
Kikihale on the 8th instant, about noon, and got
a bottle of gin from defendant, for which he paid
a dollar the gin made Sarah Smith and himself
drunk. Sarah Smith testified that Joseph went
for the gin, and that she had seen him coming
back from Kihikihi's lot also, that they were
accustomed for two weeks previously to send
there for gin, and that during that time Palau
had been living at the house. On the other
hand, Palau spoke up for herself roundly, deny
ing the charge, and giving the names of people,
ten in all, who were in the house with her.
Kaaiohale swore that he was in the house
all day after noon that Palau never was
there, and that if he had been there he
must have seen him. Mary swore she was In
the same room with defendant about noon time :;
they were ironing together, and she neither saw
people come to the house, nor saw any gin.
Naholoa (k) also swore that he was In the same
room with Palau, and never saw Joseph there.
After hearing this conflicting testimony, what
could his Honor do but discharge the accused.
The natives get liquor-most of it Of the vilest
sort-and get drunk on it continually but to
secure a conviction against those who supply
them is found to be very difficult, and generally
impossible. 1t is the same in other countries with
all forms of unlicensed ''grog-selling,' and the
only remedy ever discovered is the odiOus one
of employing paid informers and that has been
found but partially successful.
