At Kitooah, our brethren, though subject to
great prtvations, are allowed to engage in their
work with flattering hopes of success. The king
leads the way as their humble pupil, and alrcarly
begins to read intelligibly in the New Teszamczit.
he is desirous to outstrip all his subjects in the ac-
quisition of useful knowledge. Two of his wives
and two stewards under their instruction, exer-
cise themselves in the most easy lessons of W'cb-
ster’s spelling-book.
At this place, we have a pleasant school advan-
cing with dn*.si:‘able progress in the ru:lim<:nts of
the English lan§;:=age. The number under our
instruction here is about 30, among whom are the
head chief of the island, his wife, and eleven chil-
<l"ert of White men. One of the latter, George
I'I;'Jil'l')CS, exhibits a fine genius for painting»-. V-Ve
need he-re.the aid ofa preacher of the gospel, and
a school-master who skilled in the Lancasteri-
an method ofinstruction, and a tried physician
who would chev:rfull_v and patiently endure the
necessary toils and privations, to which he must
be subject in removing the diseases of body and
soul among the heatlien, and among his fellow la-
borers. God has hitherto preserved our health ;
but the heathen around us are wasting away by
disease, induced not by :he climate, but by their
lmprudence and vices.
Dr. Holman has purposed to take his station at
Mowee. It is a fruitful island, and we hope soon
to see the standard of the gospel ])lzll’l".e(l there.
