News from Pitcairn.—A letter from Sister Rosalind A. Young, author of "Story of Pitcairn Island," written from Papeete, Tahiti, August 21, says that she has just now heard from her Pitcairn Island home for the first time within a year. Two British Cruisers came that way and stopped over Sabbath and held services with the islanders. They reported all well. Until the visit of the cruisers the islanders had not heard of the awful calamity in San Francisco. It is probable that the Pitcairn Islanders will have another boat which will ply between the island and Tahiti. Certainly this is to be most earnestly hoped.
