Death of Hon. Lorrin Andrews.
-
It becomes our sad duty to record the death of another of the fathers of the American Mission to these islands.
The Honorable Rev. Lorrin Andrews departed this life at his residence in Nuuanu at 7 o'clock last Tuesday morning, in the 74th year of his age, of which he had spent more than 40 years on these islands. His last illness lasted only about ten days, during the last three of which he remained in a deep unnatural sleep, from which he only awoke to enter upon a better world.
Few men are ever so generally loved and revered as he was, no only for his services to the nation, and for his varied and extensive learning, but for the grand simpilicity, purity and nobleness of his character. In him the Hawaiian people have lost one of their truest and best friends, one whose life was devoted to their service, who loved and appreciated them, and who desired to preserve from oblivion their language, their history and ancient literature.
Judge Andrews was born in 1795 in Connecticut, but spent most of his early life in Ohio. He graduated from Jefferson College, in Pennsylvania, and from Princeton Theological Seminary in 1825. Soon after, he offered himself as a missionary, and was accepted by the A.B.C.F.M.
He sailed from Boston in Nov. 1827 in company with Rev. E.W. Clark, Rev. J.S. Greenon. Rev. P.J. Gulick, Dr. G.P. Judd, Miss Ogden and others, and arrived here March 31, 1828.
In a few months he was stationed with Mr. Richards at Lahaina. But it is in connection with Lahainaluna Seminary, of which he was the principal founder, that he will be chiefly remembered.
In Sept 1831, he opened the school in a thatched hut, in place of which the scholars afterwards erected a stone building under his superintendence. A printing office and book bindery were afterwards attached to the institution, from that Lahainaluna press issued many school books and religious works, for the benefit of the nation.
At that time Judge Andrews edited the first Hawaiian newspaper, the Lama Hawaii. He afterwards trained some of his scholars in the art of copper plate engraving, and published two atlases for the use of Hawaiian schools, one of sacred geography, and one of modern geography, accompanied by a book of geographical questions, and a treatise on the use of globes.
He took part in translating the Bible into Hawaiian, having translated the book of Proverbs, and in conjunction with Mr. Richards the Epistle of James, the three epistles of John and that of Jude.
He may justly be regarded as the pioneer in teaching Hawaiians English, having early engaged in this work, and having published a first hook for teaching them English in 1837. which he followed up by English and Hawaiian Lessons" in 1841.
In 1836 he published the first Hawaiian Dictionary, and the first outline of Hawaiian Grammer in the Hawaiian Spectator, to which he was a regular contributor.
He also helped to establish the first Historical Society in these islands in 1839, and began at an early period to collect materials for the ancient history, religions and poetry of the Hawaiian people. In 1842 he tendered his resignation, to the great regret of his colleagues in the Seminary, and soon afterwards dissolved his connection with the A.B.C.F.M.
After laboring independently for two or three years, he entered the service of the Government about 1845, as Judge in the Court of Oahu, which was afterwards styled the Superior and then the Supreme Court. He held this position for ten years, acting as Judge of Probate the latter part of the time, until 1855, when he retired on a pension, and was succeeded by Judge Robertson.
He also became a member of the Privy Council in 1848, and continued to hold that position until his death.
The last part oi his life was devoted chiefly to literary pursuits, and especially to the study of the Hawaiian language, antiquties poetry.
He published the Hawaiian Grammar in 1848, and a second enlarged edition of the Hawaiian Dictionary in 1865, containing over 15.000 words. It was a cherished desire of his to write a history of Kamehameha I., which should present a complete picture of the period, and do full justice to the abilities and character of that great man, but various obstacles prevented the execution of this design.
In all the various stations which he occupied, he commaned the universal respect and esteem of the community.
Those who knew him best felt that much as he accomplished, his productions gave but an inadequate idea of his real abilities and learning, and loved him for the rare disinterestedness, sincerity and nobleness of his character.
But it was this religious element in his character that controlled all the rest and was the main spring of his life. Pure and irreproachable as his whole life had been, his dying words were that "he had been a great sinner, and could trust only in the atoning merits of Christ." Precious is the memory which he has left to his bereaved family and friends. The influence of such a life for good only eternity can reveal. Verily "he rests from his labors and his works do follow him."
The Labor Question.
-
We are gratified to find that His Majesty's Ministers have been pleased to drop the coolie question so gracefully, and that their last leader on immigration from the islands of the South Pacifc is written in a moderate style.
We reiterate that the labor question is one which demands serious attention "and the most skillful mind will find it an abstruse matter to master." but we believe that the difficulty can and will be solved when the prejudice against the better class of civilized laborers which exists to the minds of some high in power is overcome. We have heard that when it was proposed to open a correspondence with parties in the United States to ascertain the chances of securing the services of the Freedmen, soon after the promulgation of the Emancipation Proclamation, the proposition was rejected with more emphasis than politeness. The plan might not have been feasible but why reject it without a trial? Is there not a settled determination in high quaters, to frown down any attempt to introduce intelligent emigrants?
One of the reasons urged in the "Gazette" of last week why it is necessary to encourage immigration from the islands in the South Pacific, particularly that of females, is that "A social condition like ours is inimical to religion, and to the best interests of humanity. It will neutralize the labors of religious teachers, will impede the progress of our civilization, and if it increases, will destroy that security of person and property which we have hitherto enjoyed. Hawaiians will retrograde, and the labor and money expended in years past by the religious benevolence of the friends of this people will come to nought."
It we did not believe the Ministry to be serious we should be inclined to be indignant. Believing however that they are grasping the question with all the intelligence that they are collectively and individually posessed of we are inclined to pity. How absurd that in order to improve our social condition we must import a hundred or more semi nude, semi civilized women whose language has no words to convey the idea of home or virtue. What a sad commentary upon the labors of the government, and the teachings of the Reformed Catholic Bishop, who came here for the purpose of bringing order out of chaos, and reforming our social condition. Are not the "Law to Mitigate," the restoration of the lascivious hula and kindred heathenish practices doing their perfect work? We would suggest to the Ministry that in our humble opinion the labors of the assistants which it now proposes to import will prove equally efficacious.

FOREIGN NEWS.
-
The Am. Mail Steamer "Idaho" arrived on the 26 ult. bringing fifty passengers, among whom we notice the return of several old residents, His Ex Mr. Harris and family, Dr. R.W. Wood, Messrs Waterhouse and Jones and wives.—Gen. A.L. Hartwell, the new first associate Judge of the Supreme Court arrived with this company.
We learn by this mail of the most terrific and destructive earthquakes of modern times along the West coast of South America on the 13 of August, the waves from which reached these islands in a few hours, and were observed also along the coast of California and even in the bay of San Francisco. It is stated that 32,000 lives were lost and property valued at $300,000,000 destroyed, a tidal wave, forty feet high rolled with terrific roar on the shore, carrying ships farther on land than ever before known. The United States Steamer "Wateree" was carried half a mile inland, and left high and dry— many other vessels English, French and American were lost, and whole towns are in ruins. The dead were so numerous that the surviving inhabitants were forced to fly from the putrifying bodies. The citizens of San Francisco were taking measures to send aid to the sufferers.
The Electioneering Campaign in the U. S., was becoming very active, great earnestness is manifested on both sides. Mass meetings are being constantly held.
From Europe (Sept. 9,) advices are received that the Russian Ambassador has peremtorily demanded of the Sublime Porte the immediate cession of Crete to Greece. Turkey is given only ten days to return an answer to this declared ultimatum of the Czar. It is feared that war is inevitable between these powers and which it is apprehended will lead to serious complication with other European powers.
A Fennian has been arrested in Switzerland who made such statements as to leave no doubt that it was his deliberate design to assasinate Queen Victoria. He has been committed to prison to await a requisition from the British authorities.

Mahope koke iho no, ua haawi aku oia iaia iho he misionari, a ua ae ia mai e ka Papa Amerika.

I ka wa hope o kona ola ana, ua hoopapau nui loa oia ma ka imi ana i na mea kahiko o ko Hawaii nei noho ana, oiai hoi ka imi ana i na mele a me na mea e ae.

Ma na wahi he lehulehu a pau ana i hana ai, ua loaa mai ia ia ka mahaloia a me ka hoomaikai e ka lehulehu a puni.
O ka poe i ike pono loa ia ia, ua manao lakou, o kana mau hana i hana ai, aole ia i hoike loa i ka nui o kona maikai e waiho ana iloko ona. O ka poe i launa loa, o lakou kai aloha loa ia ia, a o lakou kai hoomaopopo i ka nui o kona naauao a me kona haalele mau i kona pono iho no hai.
Aka o kona noho ana Karistiano, oia ka mea nana i hooponopono a kau Kanawai no kana mau hana a pau. I ko kakou nana ana, he pono a he hemolele kona mau ano; aka o kana olelo hope nona iho, eia ia: "He kanaka hewa loa au, e paulele wale ana ma ka pono o Kristo."
