Honolulu, June 1T was ? O'Clock in
the afternoon when at San Francisco
stepped aboard the Alameda of the
Oceanic Steamship Company, our Cap
tain Morse, one of the most genial,
popular and able commanders who ever
sailed the seas. He and the Pacific
Ocean are old acquaintance. He has
been in seventeen hurricanes and safely
outrode them. Profusion of flowers
were sent up the gang plank and the
masses of people on the wharf who had
come to see their friends off waved hand
kerchiefs, and threw kisses and cried and
laughed as is usual when an ocean
steamer is about to start. The gong
sounded for the leaving of all those from
the ships deck who did not expect to ac-
company US. The whistle blew for
loosening from the wharf and the screw
began to whirl, and the ship moved out
toward the Golden Gate.
The Pacific ocean met US with waves
high enough to send many to their berths
and TO arouse in the rest Of us the ques-
ZION why so rough a sea should be called
the Pacific. And for two days the roll,
the jerk, the rise, the fall, the lunge, the
Iremor, the quake, spoiled the appetite
ana hid from sight the majority of the
passengers. But after the third day the
ocean and the ship ceased their wrestling
and peace smoothed the waves and
nushed the winds, for the same Lord who
too4 short walk upon rough Galilee
Iakes longer walk upon Pacific seas.
Inherent from most voyages, there
seemed no disagreeables on board
enough passengers to avoid loneliness,
not SO many as to be crowded. What diff
ference between a sea voyage now with
an comforts afforded and the table con-
Valnlng all the luXuries that can allure a
weak Appetite and those days when the
Missionaries crossed to Honolulu in yes
SeIs greasy and rude and with food rancid
OF stale and with sail full Of whims, now
luIl curbed, and now limp and idle.
