Description
Summary:Published by the Rev. Samuel Chenery Damon from 1845 to 1885, The Friend focused on temperance and Christian mission to seamen. It began as a monthly newspaper that included news from both American and English newspapers, and gradually expanded to adding announcements of upcoming events, reprints of sermons, poetry, local news, editorials, ship arrivals and departures and a listing of marriages and deaths. From 1885 through 1887, it was co-edited by the Revs. Cruzan and Oggel. The editorship then passed to Rev. Sereno Bishop, who held the post until the publication of the paper fell under the auspices of the Board of the Hawaiian Evangelical Association in April of 1902 where it remained until June 1954. Since then, it has continued in a different format under the Hawaii Conference-United Church of Christ up to the present day, making it the oldest existing newspaper in the Pacific. Note that there are some irregularities in the numbering of individual issues, so that two issues may have the same volume and number, but different dates will distinguish them. ~h-ClFIC .OD.Ji' _ 44;- . , -.0 ,._,, Its Shores, its Islands, and the vast regions beyond, will -~ become the chief theatre ~.,, oltJ;]), }p- · JJ. \.'1.1'-.:s;:::,oo,,,,._ • of events, in n' \\.~ S GRE~}. 0,te, \ '6'.)._.

And some of these have found the go~pel of Jesus to be to their burthened hearts all they want. We are now ~reaking ground for a Christian college,-and it is needed, the native mind is calling for it-our work calls for it -for all Christian young men who attend the aovernment schools and colleges come out iifeless, frozen by the Atheism and heathenism they meet with; one to save his spiritual life has fled to this school.

A correspondent, referring to their meetings, thus remarks : " It had not been my intention to visit at all in Chicago, but when 1 heard that Moody and Sankey were there, I felt it was a rare opportunity which I must not lose, and now l feel richly repaid. The :services were held in the Tabernacle, where a large throng were assembled. · Mr. M. spoke as I expected he would, and it was a joy to hear him. lVlr. S. led the singing. The next day I heard them again, and the noon•day services were even more impressive than those of the preceding night. Nothing since 1 reached America has been more satisfying than these services. 1 have also heard Moody and Sankey's songs from the Pacific to the Atlantic,-all along the way; you hear them in the streets played by foll bands, and even the band-organ men have tliem, and the boys whistle them as they rush past you to their work and play. Verily this is a new way of spreadi11g the gospel." '.l'HE JA1\1ESTOWN.-'rhis vessel, which although belonging to the U.S. Navy, is loaned to the city of San Francisco as a training ship, together with the service of the naval officers,' arrived at this port on the 20th, and entered the harbor on the 22d, having left San Francisco on a cruise for instruction and d1·ill, on the 28th ult.

The crew consists of seven non-commissioned officer,3, nine aeamen and eighty-five boys under instruction. Regular instruction is maintained in the duties of seamanship and in ordinary English branches At the end of the present cruise, the annual examination will be held, and a large numter of the boys now on board will be sent to sea in merchant aud other vessels. Very good progress has been made in all studies, and the discipline of the boys is highly satisfactory, giving promise of the success of the original idea, which was to prqvide an occupation to poor boys and also to train a better class of seamen for American ships. A similar school has been established in New York, and it is proposed to establish them at Philadelphia and New Orleans.-P. C . .11. Jan. 27. '.l'HE "SuNBEAM."-'rhis is the name of a beauH. I. R.
