Ship Vincennes, During the Years 1829 and 1830: With Notices of Brazil, Peru, Manilla, the Cape of Good Hope, and St. Helena South Sea Islands, the present volume will be pecu liarly acceptable, as furnishing much additional and satisfactory evidence, that the reports which have been recently circulated of the injurious conse quences of missionary exertions among the islanders, from the crude fictions of Kotzebue, to the insinua tions and inferences of the anonymous writer of the account of the Bounty, are altogether untrue. The geographical knowledge of the latter writer appears to be much upon a par with that of the former; the name and position seems to be all he knows about Tahiti; though he quotes Captain Waldegrave as his authority, when he states, that the depopulation of the island has been so great, that, according to a census taken by the missionaries, Tahiti only con tains 5000 persons. Did the writer, when he made this statement, for the purpose of insinuating that the change effected by the missionaries had occa sioned or accelerated the depopulation of the island, not know that Tahiti consists Of two peninsulas, joined by an isthmus; and that, in the census Of the missionaries, which Captain Waldegrave saw, the population of only one of these peninsulas was 5000? If he did not know this, ought he not first to have ascertained that he was correct, before he thus recklessly published his criminating charge? And if he did know it, I leave my readers to deter mine the degree of credit to which he is entitled. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

States Ship Vincennes, During the Years 1829 and 1830, Vol. 1 of 2: Including Notices of Brazil, Peru, Manilla, the Cape of Good Hope, and St. Helena The circumstances which compelled me to bid a reluctant farewell to the Sandwich Islands, in the year 1825, are known to the public. A partial resto ration of the health of Mrs. Stewart was effected by the residence of a year in the United States; but all medical advisers interdicted a return to a tropical climate, and any future exposure to the privations of a missionary life. It became desirable, therefore, that I should select some Sphere for the exercise of the duties of my office, other than the field of my first choice. Familiarity with the sea long intercourse with seamen; close observation of their character; and strong attachment to individuals of their number, had implanted a lively interest in my heart for them, as a class Of my fellows; and led me, in connection with circumstances which it is unnecessary to explain, to di rect my attention to the united states naval ser vrce. As early as the spring of 1827, I communicated my views on this subject to the gentlemen then at the head of that department of our government, with an application for a chaplainship, when the relation existing between myself and the American Board of Foreign Missions should cease.

Some Objection was at first made by the natives, lest the disease, with which he had died, might have been contagious; but when assured, that this was not the case, a grave was prepared in the burial ground of the chapel. And at sunset, with slow procession and an admonitory service, we deposited the body - there to rest till time shall be no longer. I remained at Mr. Wilson's to tea, in company with the captain and surgeon and passed most of the evening at his cottage, in agreeable conversation. It was nine O'clock before 'we returned to the ship; the row Off was delightful - a fine moon throwing a double charm, by its brightness, over the loveliness of the scenery around.

THAT you, dear H, may form some just idea of the strength and predominancy of contrast presented on every side by decay and poverty to the few remains of magnificence and luxury in the city, I must, after _ the evening sketch in the preceding letter, introduce you for a moment to the next door neighbors of this pavilion sparkling with crystal and gold. I had passed but a step or two from the blaze of light, cast by its brilliance through the open gateway into the street, when I found myself again in partial relief, amidst the darkness around, from the illuminations of a very different abode. It was a nook on the street, three or four feet wide, and ten or twelve in depth, partly built up with rough balls of mud, and hung at the entrance with an old garment of cloth in place of a door. On the ground, immediately in front, an old black woman was seated beside a flat iron pan resting on two or three stones, with ablazing faggot beneath. She was shrivelled up with age. An old rag of cotton, that had once been white, was bound about her deeply grizzled head, with a tatter hanging from it here and there around the face and temples: while a poncho, whose original color it was vain to conjecture, shining with grease, and rent by peacemea till a strip of rags only remained, but ill concealed CONTRAST TO A SCENE OF LUXURY. 169 the upper part of her figure, left a long and skeleton like arm on either side, entirely bare.
