A KING OF THE SOUTH SEAS. Talkativs Aliens Shipped Away From His | Tslaad Kingdom BY PROCLAMATION RIFLE SHOTS. Rot I rt Louis Stevenson, the tes How the Dusky Built a Town for English Copyriant, 1591, Our first sight of Tembinok' was & matter of concern, almost alarm, to my whole party Wohad a favor to seek, we approached in the proper courtly attitude of a suitor, and must either please him or fail in the main purpose of our voyage. It was our wish to Jaud and live in Apsmama, and see more yenr at band the odd enaractor of the man avd the odd, or rathor ancient, condition of his island. Tn all othor isles of tho South Seas o white man may~ land with his ctiest and sot up house for a lifetimo, it ke choose, and havo the money or tho trade: uo hin drance is conceivavle. But Apemama is close island, lying there in the sea with closed doors, the king himself, like a vigilant officer, ready at the wicket to serutinize and weject intronching visitors, Hence the attrac- tion of our enterprise, u moroly because it was alittle dificult, but vecause this sacial quarantine, 4 curiosity in itself, has been the presorvative of others, Tembinok’, like most tyrants,is a couserva- tive; iike many atives, he cagorly welcomes paw ideas, and, uxcept 1n the field of politics, ieans to practical reform. When the missionaries came, profossing & knowl- edge of the truth, he readily seived them, attendea their worship, acquired the accom- plishment of public prayer and made him Belf o student at their foot, It 18 thus—it is by the cultivation of similar passing chances ~~that ho learned to read, to write, to cipher, and to speak his queer personal En- glish, so different from ordinar ‘Beach do Mar," 50 mucn more obscure, expressive and condenscd. His education attended to, ho found time to become critical of the new in mates, Like Nakacis of Makio, he 1s an ad- mirer of silence in the island, broods over it like a groat ear, bhas spies who report daily, und had rather his subjects sing than talk The service, ana in particulur the sermon, catmo this sure to become ey e-sor fo my island, I 'peak,”” T once obsery tome. “My chieps no ’peak—do what talk.” He looked at the missionary, nod what id no sce? “See Konna ka ’peak Tn o big ‘outeh " ho erled, with a stroug ring of saveasin. Yet he endured the subversive spectacle, and might eveu have continued to endure it iad nota fresh point arisen, He look agaiu, to employ his own figure, and the Kunaka was no louger speaking. Ho was doing worse; he was building a copra house, Ihe king was touched in his chief interosts revenue and prerogative were threatoned. H pousidercd besides (and some think with nim) that trude is incompatible with the mission- ary claiws, ~Tuppoii mitonary think ‘good man ' very good. Tuppoti he think cobrano good. Isend him away ship.” Such was his abrupt history of the evangolist in Apemam: Similar deportations are common. “I send him away ship’ is not the epitaph of a fow, his majesty paying the exile's fare to th next place of call. For instance, being pas- sionately fond of European food, ho has sov. eral times added to his household a white cook, and one after another these have boon deported. They on their side swear they were not paid their wages: ho, on his, that they robbed and swindled him boyond eéndur- ance; botl: perhaps justly. A more impor- tant case was that of au ngent, despatched (as I have heard the story) by a firm of mer- chants to worm his way into tho king's good gra bozowe, if possible, promier, und handle the copra in the intorest of his em- ployers. Ho obtained authority to land, practised s fascinutions, wus patiently istened to by Tembinolc’, supposed himseif on the highway to success, ana behold ! when tho noxt ship fouched at Apemama the pro- mier was flung into a boat, had on board his fare paid, and so goodoy. But it is ncedless to multiply examples; the proof of tHe pud- ding is tho cating of it. When wo came to Apemama, of 50 many whito men wno have scrambled fora placo in that rich market one remaized —a silent, sober, solitary, nig- gardly recluse, of whom the king remarks: S think ho zood; be no 'peak. I was warned at the outset we might very well fail in our design; you nover dreamed of what proved to be the fict, that we should bo left four and twenty bours in suspense and como within an aco of ultimato rojection. Captain Keid had primed himself; no soonof was the king on board und the Honneti qu tion amicabiy settled, than ha procecded to express wy request and give an abstract of my claims and virtues. Tho gammon about Queen Victoria’s sou might do for Butaritari; It was out of the question here, and T now figured as “onc of tho Old Men of Kngland,” a person of deep knowledgo, come exprossly to visit Tembinok’s dominion, and eager to oport upon 1t to the no less’ eagor Queen Victoria. “Tho ki made no shadew of an answor, wnd presently bogan upon a differont suvject. Wo m ve thought he had vot heard or not understood, only that we found ourselves the subject of u constant study.

Thoy shared also in my” mortilication when affer two wholo meals, and the oud moments of an_afiernoon devoted to this recruiting, Tembinok’ took his leave in silence. Noxt morning tho samo undisguised study, the samo silence, was re- sumed aud the 'second day had come w0 its wawrity before I was in- formed abruptly that I had stood the ordeal, “Ilook your eyo. You good man. You no hie," said the king; a doubtful compliment to @ writer of romance, Lator ho explained ho d1d not quite judge by the eyu only, but the mouth as well. “Tuppoti, [ sec mun," he ex- Plained. © 1 o tavyy goud wan, bad wav. | ook oye, look mouth, Then Itavvy. look eye, iook mouth," he repeated. And, indeed, 10 0no case the ‘mouth had the mostto do with ity and it was by our tuik that we gained admission to the island, the king promising himself (aud 1 beliove really amussing) a t amount of useful knowlodgo ero wo loft The terms of our admission were as follows : Wo were to chooso a site, and the king should thero build us a town. His people should work for us, but the king only was to give thom orders. One of his cooks should come dally to belp mine and to learn of him, In caseé our stores ran out ho would supply us and be repaid ou the return of the Kquator. On the othor hand, he was 1o como to meals with us when so inclined; when he stayod at home a dish was to be sent him from our table; and | solomnly enguged to give his subjects no liquor or woney (both of which they are forbidden to possess), and uo tobacco, which they were to reccive only from the royal hand. I think 1, ro- momber ~ to havo protested aghinst the striugeuoy of this last urticle; at loast, it was reluxed, and when a man worked for mo I was allowed to give him a pipe of tobacco on the premises, but none to tako awuy. ‘Tho site of Equator town—we named our city for the schoonor—was soon chosen, Tho immediate shores of the lagoou are windy and olinding; Tembinok himself is glad to gropo blue-spectacled on bis terrace; aud we fled the nelghborbood of the red conjunction, the matterivg eyenall and tho boggar who pur sues aid Lesceches the passiug foreigaer for oyo-wash.

In aul the Tair senile obadience was no less remarkeble than senilo deliberation. The ganz had bere mustered by the note of deadly weapon. The man who looked on was the unquestioned master of their lives; and, except for civilty, they bestirred them scives like so many American hotel clerks. The spectator was aware of an unobtrusiv you invinciblo inertia, at whicn the skipper of a trading dandy might have torn his haiv. Yot tho work was accomplished. By dus when his majesty withdrew, the town was founded and complete, a new and ruder Am- phion having called it from nothing with three cracks of a rifle.

The outward and visible sign of this glamour wus no more than a few rageed cocoa loaf gar Lands round the stems of the outlying palms; but its significance reposod on the tremendous sanction of the taboo and the guns of Tem- binok'. Wo made our first meal that nicht in the improvised city, where we wero to stay two mouths, ana which—so s0ou as we had douo with it -was to vanish in a day as it ap- peared, its clements returning whence they came, the taboo raised, the trallic on the pati vesumed, the sun aud the moon peering in vain botween the paim trees for the bygono work, the wind blowing over an empty site Yet the place, which is now only an episode in some memorios, seemed to have been buily and to be destined to endure for years, It was a busy howmlet. One of the moniaps we made our dining roow, one thé kitchen. The houses we reserved for slocping. They wora on tha udmirable Apemama plan, out and away the best bouse in the South Seas, stanaing some threo foet above the ground on posts; the swdes of woven #aps, which can bo raised to admit light and air, or lowered toshut out the wind and the rain: airy, heatthy, clean and water-tight. We had'a ton of & remarkable kind—almost unique in my exporienco—being a hen thatoceasionally laid cggs. Not far off Mrs. Stevenson tonded a garden of salad and shalotts. Thoe salad was devoured by tho hen, which was ber bane. Tho shalotts were served out a ‘ouf ata time and welcomed and relished like peaches. Toddy and green coconnuts were brought us daily. We once had a present of fish from tho king, and once of a turtle. Sometimes wo shot so-called plover along tho shore, sometimes wild chickens in tho bush. The rest of our diet was from tins, Our occupations were various—all varying Mr. Osbourne sud I hammered away at a novel, Mr. Stroug would be away sketching. Wo read (ibbon and Carlyle aloud, wo blew on flageolets, wo strummed on_guitars, we took photographs by the light of the sun, the moon, and detonating powder, sometimes em- ployed cards. Pothuntiug engaged a part of our leisuro. I nave myself passed afternoons iu tho excitiug but innocuous pursuit ot winged auimals with a revoiver. and it was fortunate there were better shots of tho party, and fortunate the king could lend us more suitable weapon 1a the form of an ex- cellent fowling piece, or our spare diet would haye been spater still.

If Methodists do not chose to protoct themselves from others, thai is their affair. We view our responsibility in a very different way, Dr. Newman eulogizes Dr. Newton for breaking the law ho voluntarily vowed to obiey, and conaemns the [ipiscopal ehurch for'enacting a law that should guard the ith of Dr. Newton's parishioners. Dr. Newtou denies at least two cardinal articles of the faith which Dr. Newman is sworn to maintain as well as we. He slashes at, and denies both the authenticity and authority ot u large portion of the holy scripture whose dvine authority Dr. Newman is sworn to maintain, Amoag other preachers whom Dr. Newton invited to preach in his pulpit, con- trary to law, was a Unitarian who denied the supremo divinity of Him whom Dr. Newman is held to worship as God, But yet Dr. Newman so itchos for liverty to stina in our pulpits, by right to preach, that ne can scarcely find words stroug enough for culogy of Dr. Newton, or in con- demuation of tho church’ which will uob permit him to preach, or have preached any gosvel he choses. o deny the Godhead of Christ, and to permit others to preach who do it, is as noth- ing to Dr. Newman, compared witi@uha fidel- ity of the man who Stands ready 15 let Dr. Newman take his turn with the depravers of christianity to stand in his pulpit. Dr. Ne man thinks it is apscrintural for the Kpisco pal or any other church to_debar the preach- ing, in 1ts pulpits, of men whom it has neither sent itself, neither have been lawfully com- missioned elsewnere, 1o speais all the words of this life.”” Very well, lot him enforce that principle in his own christian boay. But we must be excused if wo do not séok the law of holy scripture at his mouth. He calls us illiveral, und uncharitablo, and bigoted, because we canjiot sco as he sees; but we do oven our mouths many times to speak of tho rare devotion and high charac Methodists, especially when to their own principlos; but Dr. Newman never, aud o other Metho! dist bishop ever opens nis mouth to speak of the Church of England, or of the Episcopal church in America, without sending forth vonom and misrepreseutation concerning it He speaks of our lack of chavity in not recognizing other christian churches, but whild they make great professions of friend- sLip for other christian bodies there is no nation or church into which tho Methodists do not send, when they can, apostles of divis- ion, to draw away converts from them. Iuto Germany, into Scandinavia, as well as iuto Roman Catholic countries, Mathodists send their missionaries to divide the Christian people of tue land. 1t does the same thi nore. There are Swedish Methodists, Nor wegian Methoaists, Danish Methodists, Ger man Methodists, and every sort of Methodist that the body, that Dr. Newmun represents as s0 gonerous aud charitable, can win away from their own enristian allegiunce. It condemns scctarianism and proselyt- ism, ond it goes into every land where it . to promoto scot- arianism, and to make proselytes. [t harries, where it can, every Christian congregation, oven when it nolds out to it the right nand of fellowship. That we do not, as a principle of our ecclesiastical life, excep? in vare instances Jf individual zeal and meddlesomoness, We care for our own within our own borders, und we send to heathen lands.
