Softcover. December 29, 1841. Published at the request of the Society. 24 p.; 21 cm. Pages moderately foxed. `Look at those far off isles of the Pacific, long the subject of painful interest as the death place, by cruel hands, of the most distinguished of modern navigators; but now so dear to the heart of American philanthrophy; and see what wonders have there been wrought! It is but 22 years since the American Missionaries commenced their labors among the inhabitants of these islands-then almost as much the children of nature,as when first discovered by Capt. Cook. Within this short period, the old idolatry, with all its abominations, has passed away; the language of the nation has been reduced to writing; the whole Bible,and several other works of various extent, have been translated into the native tongue, printed on the spot, and circulated among the people; schools have been established throughout the islands; thousands of the adult population have been taught to read and write. useful arts have been introduced; and the chiefs, having learned from the Missionaries, some of the leading principles of our own legislation and jurisprudence, have enacted laws, limiting their former arbitrary power. Christian marriage has come in the place of polygamy and other kindred abuses; the Sabbath is generally observed; and the gospel is preached, in 19 different churches, to the body of the people, no less than 2100 of whom have been received, at different times, into the communion of the Christian Church; and 1800 of whom are now church members in good standing. What are the physical improvements of the age, splendid as they confessedly are, in comparison with this heavenly achievement?' (p. 7 f.) Good, stitched into gray wrapper. Upper inside corners chipped.
