"A MODERN ELIJAH."

(To the Editor.) glK—" Identity" ia a letter published in' your paper of last eveniug, bos clone me the honour of replying to a communication of ■ mine, entitled as above. I shall be greatly \ obliged iT you will allow me to comment biiiTly upon it. Passing by several matters of an abusive nature, which are totally irrelevant to the subject under discussion, 1 have a remark or two to make on some of " Identity's" assumptions. 1 beg to assure him that I did learn something of the Scrip tures aud also of the history of the descen dants'of Abraham, at a school which is miitc "a fair average" of the educational institutions of England. I learnt sufficient to prevent mo from making any mistake as to the number and the names of the lost tribes ; and to satiny me that the distinc tion drawn by "Identity" and his party between "Jews" and "Israelites is directly at variance with the u-a«e of authorities in Hebrew history and antiqui lh-- Turning to " the fountain head ot all ' learning" I find that the wholo of the twelve tribes, taken collectively, arc everywhere in the earlier bojks of tne Old Testament known as " the children of Israel": that David and Solomon are spoken of as reigning over " Israel "; that our Lord Himself speaks of the "twelve tribes of Israel" (Matthew xi;c, 23) -as docs also the author of ihc Apoci.lyi.se (Key. vii., 4). From these facts I gather that to conhue the name " Israel " to the ten tribes alone is not warranted by Scripture. Ibo fact is that fchn descendants of Abraham are in- , differently known as either "Jews or "Israelites," and if "Identity' likes to see a difference for his own purposes, of ■ I cour-e, he is at liberty to do so ; but he has ,io right to stigmatise as ignorant those who do not recognise his distinction. It will be generally acknowledged that Dean Milii.an . knew quite a-i tuucll about the name, &«., of the tlebiew nation as'ldentity," and the Dean calli his history of the twelve tribes " A History of the Jews." Flavius Joseuhus also speaks of the twelve tribes as " Jews/ aud who.su dictum in this matter will be pi of en ed -that of Josephus or that of " Identity »" 'Identity " goes on to doubt the truthiuluess of my account of the young artist wiio culled himself Elijah.l assert em phatically that it is an accurate version of the facts. " Elijah " was a schoolfellow of mine, a " quondam" familiar friend and associate ; and his family are well known to me. "Elijah" was befriended and hospitably treated just piiorto his declaring himself a prophet, by my brother, from wl/omi obtained a lengthy and particular description of the young man's opinions and conduct. Certain paragraphs about him appeared in English papers (and my narrative is in substantial accord with them) ; but in order to spare the feelings of " Elijah's" family much information as to his strange proceedings was not made public. 1 could add details to the account which I gave in last Saturday's "Star," but I think I have said enough to refute " Identity's" imputation of unveracity ou my part. There is no need for " Identity " to' trouble himself with any history of Presbyteiianisni in order to know that in times of religions excitement cases of mania are common, especially among the " half educated." As some recognition of his anxiety respecting my education, 1 beg to refer him again to Dr. Carpenter's " Mental Physiology," a work which evidently he has not read, but which would unquestionably increase even his store of knowledge. " Identity " fcems greatly nettled at my saying that the half-educated embraced the Anglo-Israel theory more readily than any other ciass in the town I referred to. 1 waa only stating what was a notorious fact, to which scores could testify. If "Identity" has found that such are generally capable of weighing evidence, and narticularly the kind which may be; culled technical, his experience differs diametrically from mine. —I om.. &c, J.D.D, »

THE NAVAL TRAINING SCHOOL.

(To the Editor.) Sir, —I >vas pleased to see in your last evening's issue a letter signed " Kohima rama, calling attention to the abuse in trie above useful institution. In bis letter hu truly says " No Government with an iota iif self-respect can remain much longer apathetic." At the same time, while I would endorse much that " Kohimarama " suggests, I must confess that the eighty or ninety dismissals is slightly exaggerated. I would not troubla you Mr Hditor, but I nm an cx-oilicer myself, and as the rules of the Government service preclude Captaiu Breton, or any Government seivant, writ iuti to the l Jre.-s, I feel called upon to cor icct tome of " Kohimarama's " statements. I grant that there have been a great many dismissal*. Tar too many for any institu tion. In fact it proves the inability of the manager to select judiciously, or the in structors cannot agree with the "Little god of 4\ acres,'" as some people dub the manager." "Kohimarama" is wrongly in formed re the last six months, the dismis sals have been fewer. Sub-mauagers do not, nor ever did exist, the school-master tanking next to Captain 8., then two sea men instructors, aud one cook complete the stall' excepting the sewing instructress (left now I believe) who u^ed to come down from Auckland two days ifl the week. One schoolmaster was there within the last two years for 15 or 1C months right ofl, and was a marvel of patience under repeated discour tesies. He left some few mouths ago, but I believe went back very shortly, aud is there still. 'lh;\t a competent" school master was. aud I believe is still, wanting, anyone would not much doubt who once heard the school master above referred to, read ; English murdered ! As a seaman instructor, he uo doubt was, fully competent, but as a schoolmaster not at all. Two or three instructors have left dur ing the last two years of their own accord, aud to Captaiu Bntou's regret, oue in par ticular, Anderson 1 think, lie tried hard to persuade to s:-.y. But no, sailois as a rule do not like one harbour long, besides it is not everyone has the disposition of conform* iug to Captain Breton's peculiarities. Mr N. the cook, has been thoieu.9a.rly, if. not quite two years, and seems quite, comfortable. Of Captain Breton discharging one for " Disrespect," and another for " Ktiquctt* " I fully believe ; but Captain Breton would do well to remember, that even his subordi nates are accustomed to sucli a thin" as courtesy, us might be expected from an ollicev and presumably a gentleman. That the institution is not a suo:ess no oue can deny, Captain B.s management of boys is, in my opjuiou, altogether wrong. A little kinduosa and a, word or two of en couragement to theso poor little waifs—who pften have gone the wrong road through want of kiudue.s—would go a long, long way. 1 found it fo in my sojourn there, rhorc wa*> scarcely a boy (thief or not) but I could trust, aud never was I disappointed. Undue punishment I once saw inflicted, and 1 ami auotber trainer, always regretted not interfiling ; but one cannot always do on the spur of tne moment what one should, but I believe aud, hope that the act was regretted as soi-.n as perpetrated. The oulv remedy, and one which must come before luwg, H tins institution is to exist at aIL is * veat the appointment of all oUices in the hands of Mr Hill, of H.M S, Customs, or some other Government officer, not the manager. 'X hat Captain Breton should bavo the appointment and dismissal of officu-d (without appeal) is doiug untold mischief to the school. Captain Breton should try a little more courtesy tv his Officora, and try kindness with iirruness with the boys, and he may recavey tho good: opinion of many who h.a\« watched with much anxiety the progress of the school - Yours, &c.j Naval.

As is shown by the following interesting TALE OF TEE PACIFIC!! A TALE OF THE PACIFIC. Wm. Opperman, Esq., a wealthy island trader was for eomo months lying ill at Happomamma an ieland o£ tho Kinf-amill Group, in the Pacific He hart been seized with rheumatic fevor, which was followed by complicated disorders of a tor rib y Bcvero nature, assuming the form of a specie- of palsy never beforo known. The suf ferer's I'mbs swelled, tiio lejia lost all sensibility to pain ; tho foot could bo wrenched round or the Bkin pierced with a lance without inflicting the slightest suffering. Tho sick man was evi dently uncoiscious of his havincr legs, and his brain wa< soriously affected as if with lunacy. In this deplorable state he was kindly brough from the is amis to Auckland by Mr 11. Hender son in the schooner Coionet. Captain Moellor and, being a Gorman, he was received by the German Consul, O. Yon der Heyde, Ksq , and placed in tho District Hospital, whero ho re ceived treatment for three weeks with no indica tion of improvement, hia case being pronounced by one and all a most hopeless onf. Tha captain pf the Corono', knowing that extraordinary cur^a had been elFected by tho use of Hitchens' Celebrated Blood Restorer requested the proprietor of the BloorJ. Jteatorer to take the ease in hand, and a contract was entered into of " No euro, no pay." Mr Hitchens proceeded to tho Hospital, examined the invalid and found him in an apparently dying etato with scarcely a spark of lifo left. Mr Hitchens ordered the suffering man to be removed to his ,(fvlr UM private residence, where his wants could perionajly be attended to b" Mr Hitchens The latter administered fho medicine (tho Blood Restorer) and used tho ointment freoly. Mean while clergymen callod, pronouncing the case beyond the power of man to effect a cure. How ever, af^er six weeks tho effect of the medicine became wonderfully apparent. The Blood Restorer had acted steadily but Bnroly on the blood; tho deadly impurities were gradually eliminated from tho system until the stream of lifo i(owed unchecked in its natural channels over tho entire raan. Thp brain be camo clear and active, and the limbs oncp again rejoiced in natural circulation, tho patientrising to his foot cured of diaoasos whloh had battled the skill of leading phyticians, a living proof of the wonderful healing powers of Hitehene Celebrated Blood Restorer. TKSTIMONIAL.I Auckland, N.Z, To H. A. H. Hitchens. Esq. Boforo leaving Auckland on my return voyage to tho Islands, I have to perform tho plcaßing duty of acknowledging tho surprising euro I have received at your hands. Coming to Auckland as I did a dying man, being palsied and generally unconscious, and hearinK from others that no hopo of recovery wus hold out by medical men, Hook upon you now as the preserver of my life. I am convinced that to your medicine alono is due tho credit for my now boing a living man. I beg to thank you most sincerely for the kind ness you have shewn me while staying in your house, and in conclusion would earnestly re commend sick people to use your Blood Restorer, as It is tho most extraordinary purifier of the blood I ever heard of, or met with in my travels.
