few stores and the personal effects The
Glasgow bark Martaban, Capt. Hodge,
which held to her mornings in the same
storm at Bakers Island, on coming to
Rowland Island to land a working party,

tenance where they had been cast away

AN INTERESTING LECTURE.
What Prof. Brigham Saw and Learned
in Guatemala.

Prof. w. t. Brigham, who in 1S64-5
was teacher OF natural sciences at Oahu
College, gave a very interesting and in
structive address to the students OF that
institution Thursday afternoon, the lee
ture lasting nearly an hour. There were
present: President, W. c. Merritt and
members of the Faculty; Hon. G. R.
Bishop, President OF the Board OF Edu-
cation; Hon. A. F Judd and Mrs. Judd,
and many others.
Prof. Brigham gave graphic descr1p-
ton of the trees Astounding in the forests
Guatemala. where he has made very ex-
tensive travels while engaged in botanl-
cal researches. Some OF the trees, such
as indigo, mahogany, etc, that grow on
the mountain slopes, are, in his opinion,
really majestic in appearance, and the
poor looking California trees are not at
all comparable with them. The vines
and other parasites which grow on these
trees, in some seasons of the year, when
they blossom, add greatly to their natural
beauty. and any one who really admires
Natures works cannot fail to be deeply
impressed with such displays. The
ferns, however, in the forests, grow so
thick that travellers have to cut their
way through the dense forests.
Prof Brigham also described the lie OF
the Indians, who are very industrious peo-
pie, besides being honest in their deal
ings with foreigners. Reptiles are al
most unknown in Guatemala, although
snakes are plentiful, yet not OF danger
GUS character, as those found in Central
America.
The political situation was briefly told,
and the school system highly COM
mended At the summer vacation,
teachers from every part OF the republic
are required to assemble at the capital
those failing to comply with this strict
regulation FORGETTING their situations-to
hear lectures from the best educationists
the government could procure, and when
this convention closes all 60 to their diff
ferent schools full of new ideas, feeling
almost as fresh as students Just coming
out of college.
The religious affairs OF the people are
shamefully neglected, although every
now and then travelling priest comes
and holds services in their almost for
saken cathedrals. These cathedrals are
constructed of stone and some OF them
have very impressive aspect. In one
of these, built in the same year that the
city of New York was founded, it was
Prof. Brigham's happy lot to be present
during divine service, and that edifce is
standing to-day, retaining its ancient
beauty, which speaks well of the archi-
tectural capacity of its builders. The
natives, with the decline of religious
truth, naturally return to their former
mode of worship, and they convert the
sacred edifce consecrated to the worship
of God to a heather temple, and carry
on their superstitious practices there.
There were many other incidents given
by the Professor, which were of great in
terest to the students OF Oahu College.

The Chinaman as a Citizen.

Nh. EDITOR: In your paper OF the
25th inst, 1 have seen a letter from Hilo
on the Immigration Question signed by
IA. NJ. When this writer desires no
more than to send your readers the Cos
sip of Hilo ice-cream parties, it is all very
well for him to hide himself under such
q signature, but when he undertakes to
enlighten the public as to the ways and
manners of his fellow subjects it would
be better if he would sign his name so
that people can judge from it how much
faith to put in what he has to say.
He tells US a great deal about the way
in which the japanese and Portuguese
spend their earnings but says that all
the Chinaman seems to think OF is to get
money and get back TO China" Now in
proportion 10 the numbers OF them in
the country there are fewer Cinnamon
go away than white men, and OF these
very few working men even come back,
whilst great numbers of Cinnamon re-
turn and often bring more wealth with
them than they took away. As Tor the
Japanese, they are all bound to 90 away
again, and their Government makes
earnings which is carefully sent away to
their own country as a sort OF guarantee
that they will go back to their old homes.
And whose going away has been more
talked about for two or three years past
than the Portuguese who have carried
off their earnings to California?
As to the fondness OF spending their
money here which j A. NJ. attributes TO
the Portuguese, do not believe in it.
have seen lots of their countrymen in
Macao, which used TO be one of the most
hourishing OF the possessions OF the
King of Portugal, and | know that
they mostly live on sailed shrimps and
water greens. They also buy some cheap
-four which they mix with water and
then fry the mixture like hot cakes are
cooked. ]. a. NJ. says of them that
they are fond OF drinking wine and
riding horses. / should advise him to
go and look at the tax assessors books,
and see how much of the tax on horses
the Portuguese in his neighborhood pay.
Or let him ask the Collector of Customs
how much duty on liquors and wines is
paid by these people. The Chinese Gov
eminent has been only too kind to these
people in giving them the capital posi-
ton of Macao to live in free, but every
year from its own subjects in that place
the Government of Portugal gathers in
100000 of taxes. j. A. NJ says Chi
nese only eat rice and pork-well pork
costs eighteen cents pound and the
whiteman's beef only costs eight cents.
1t would be a good thing if this ques-
ton of who spend their money most
freely in these islands could be properly
gone into and the truth made plain. |
have seen many a white man make
meal here of two pieces Of bread with
out any butter.
For my part say, let people compare
the Chinese with other people all they
want to-only let them stick to fact.

The immigration Question.

In the last GAZETTE gentleman states
that the japanese and Portuguese can
live as cheaply as the Chinese. They
may be able to do so, but they do not /;
neither do they desire to do so. will
guarantee that Chinaman can live on
one-half the money that the Jap or Port
uguese do. The japanese live as well as
their small pay will allow of, and they
like to dress well and have watches.
The Portuguese like to have horses, wine
and all the good things that their pay
will allow of All the Chinaman seems
to think of is to get money and get back
to China. Give him rice and pork and
his happiness is complete. He can live
and sleep in almost any place. In San
Francisco, in some of those miserable
dens, they are packed in so close that it
would almost seem impossible for a fax
seed TO get in between them, maybe in
order to save money. A japanese would
not be contented to live in that manner.
The Chinese are increasing so fast that
they must 20 somewhere, and a climate
like that of these islands is the place
where they prefer to live, and if they are
not stopped they will in time be great
curse instead of a blessing to these beau
tiful islands A japanese knows moth
ing about meanness. A more generous
people do. not exist, and none more
polite. Maybe the Chinaman thinks he
has the dealers in such goods as he pur-
chases on the hip. All love money and
some would get down on their knees to
the Chinese in order to get their trade.
Money will seal mouths that should be
outspoken. 1t was ever thus, true as
gospel. Evidently these are merchants
who do not 90 in for home protection:
money is their god. These would allow
the Chinese to ride over them rough
shod. The next lot of Japanese that are
coming, it is thought, will mostly have
families They will, ii is hoped, all
come in future with their better halves,
for the women have good influence
over their husbands and Japs in general.

Departure of steamer W. c. Hall.

As usual, the departure OF the Kona
and Kau steamer drew out a large
gathering at the Interisland S. S. wharf
on Friday. His Majesty the King was
a passenger, and at his request, the sail
ing of the steamer was delayed till 10 30
o'clock. He went to visit his coffee plan
tation and see how the work is getting
on.
1t was limited by some OF the knowing
ones that His Majesty, in vetoing the
coffee bill, had keen eye open to bust
ness, and when the next Legislature
passes a bill granting a bonus of five
cents pound on coffee, his crop will be
among the first to secure the harvest.
Among other passengers on the Hall,
were Hon. J. Kauhane and family, Hon.
]. d. Paris and family, and several tour
lists booked for the volcano.

No Explanation Possible.
Hilo, Sept. Goth

Mr.. EDITOR; Some one writing to the
evening Bulletin OF 26th inst. calls out
for an explanation" and then proceeds
to ask an answer to riddle which he
has invented. This conundrum is like
many that haole boys make jokes with
there is no answer to it. What were
all the Chinese in town taxed 81 for +? y
he enquiries. As no such thing took
place there is no answer to his riddle,
and he had better rack his idle brains to
find 8 new one.
This nonsensical question would not be
worth taking any notice OF but for the
fact that it insinuates lie. If any one
should come out straight and say tax
was levied on all the Chinese in town at
the time the Chinese Constitutional
Amendment was before the House he
could be dealt with, and shown to be
speaking an untruth. But if he is taxed
with the untruth now he can easily
wriggle out of it by saying, "0h only
ssked question trying to catch some
body asleep" Such tricks that are
vain" show what kind OF people they are
who are attacking US.

Board of Health.
DR.. n. B. Emerson, President OF the
Board of Health, has returned from a
trip to Molokai and Maui. He accom-
panied Sister Marianne to the Leper
Settlement, to introduce her to the new
Bishop Woman's Home, now ready for
the management of the Sisterlood Of
Mercy. A large number of patients went
over by the same trip of the steamer
Mokolii. The water being increasingly
rough on arrival about 3 o'clock in the
morning, Capt. McGregor landed his
passengers at that hour in rather dim
moonlight.
The patients at the Settlement gave
Sister Marianne an enthusiastic greet
Jag. After inspecting the scene where
the future of the Sisterhood's devotion
lay, she crossed over to Maalaea Bay
and visited the Sisters in charge Of
Malulani Hospital at Waikiki, which
has also the care Of DR.. George Herbert,
