Prevent rs, Lord, in all our doingH, with Thy most gracious favour, and further uh with Thy continual help; that in all our works, begun, continued, and ended in Thee, we may glorify Thy Holy Xanie ; and finally, by Thy mercy, obtain everlasting life; through Jesus Christ our Lord. Amen. O Merciful God, Who hast made all men, and hntest nothing that Thou hast nuule, nor wouldest the death of a sinner, but rather that he should bo converted and live ; have mercy upon all Jews, Turks, Infidels, and Heretics, and take from them all ignorance, hardness of heart, and contempt of Thy Word, and so fetch them home, blessed Lord, to Thy flock, that they may bo saved among the remnant of the true Israelites, and bo made one fold under one Shepherd. Prosper, O Lord, the labours of those societies of the Church in the land of our fathers, which Thou hast deigned to use in the promotion of this object, and which have nourished the Church in tho colonies; and bless in like manner with Thy Holy Spirit and providential succour the Society in whose cause we are now met, and the undertakings wliich we liavo now in hand. "Prosper Thou the work of our hands upon us; O prosper Thou our hand}' work," for the sake and through tho merits of Thy Son Jesus Christ our Lord, Who liveth and reigneth with Thee and the Holy Ghost, one (Jod, world without end. Amen. Our Father, Whicli art in heaven. Hallowed bo Thy name. Thy Kingdom come. Thy will bo done in earth, As it is in Heaven. Give us this day our daily bread. And forgive us our trespasses, As we forgive them that trespass against us. And lead us not into temptation ; But deliver us from evil ; For Thine is the kingdom, the power and the glory, For over and ever. Ainen. ■■/ ♦ •/ V' THE CHUPvCH SOCIETY OK THK DIOCESE OF QUEBEC.

FRIDAY 1870 28th January. • i» *) .^ V * • • » Under tlio existing circnmstfinccs of the diocese, mission- ary labor, which is the first of the objectu embraced in the constitution of the Society, demands the chief share of tlie attention of the Central Board. The department of missions, however, having been entrusted to the management of the Diocesan Board, tlie Central Board begs to refer the Society to the report of that body, presented herewith, which, with its appendix, contains full information respecting the work committed to its charge. The share of the Central Board in that work relates at present mainly to Ihxi supply of the means for carrying it on : and while acknowledging with thardcfulncss the result of a recent eftbrt made among the congregation of the Cathedral Church, which has materi- ally increased those means, the Board is bound to state that so far from having been able to extend its operations, it has not been in a position to afford to the Diocesan Board the assistance which it had been encouraged to expect two years ago. Early in 18G7, the sum of ^1000 was voted to missions from the general fund of the Society, of which only one half was paid during that year. The state of the funds rendered it impossible to renew the grant during the past year, and it is only within the last few days that the treasurer has been enabled to pay the balance due on account of the grant of 18G7. A refer'- nco to the early history of the Society will shew that one of the objects which its founders expressly proposed to themselves Avas to supply the deficiency which was even then malcing itself felt, arising from the withdraAval of the- aid of the Society for the Propagation of the Gospel. How much more strongly such a ground may now be urged, and how vain it is to indulge any hope, even if it were right in jn-inciplo to do so, of continuing to depend upon any resources but our OAvn, will appear from the letter re- cently received from the Secretary of the S. P. G., and ap- pended to the report of the Diocesan lioard. The absolute necessity of a farther reduction of that Society's expenditure «b ^ J 10 is made unmistakcably plain 1)}' the statomcMt that its Irea- surors, after .special api)eals made to the Church of England, liave been ohliyed to ])ropo.se to borrow £12,000 to meet the fn-ants to Vhich it is pledged for the current year. The deficiency which will be created by the apju'oaching reduction in the grant to this diocese can be ])rovi(led for only by increased exertions among ourselves. With scarcely three or four exceptions out of Quebec, all local ettbrts, hoAvevcr severel}' strained, for the maintenance of the Church are undeniably insufficient. The only remaining re- source is the Church Society. The Central Board ventures to remind the members of the Society that "grants to be made from time to time " from the general fund constitute one of the sources on wliich, ac- cording to the Bj'-laws of the Society, the Diocesan Board is to depend for its income, and which it is to take into account in calculating its expenditure; and it is plain that unless a cliaracter of something like permanence is given to its in- come, it cannof sustain the missions which ai-e already on its list, much less can it indulge any reasonable hope of entering into the fields which "are white already to harvest." Tho Central Board is thankful to observe that the claim of such destitute places is not altogether overlooked by Churchmen, and to record a donation of 8500 for the special jturposc of opening new missions, from one who is already a subscriber of u])\vards of $-100 per annum to the Society, and tiie donor of $200 to each of the endowment funds placed, or to be placed, under its charge. The congregation of St. Matthew's Chapel, Quebec, have also been ])ermitted, by a vote of the Board, to appropriate their annual subscri2)tions to tliis object. The Board, in October last, ])laced tlie sum of $100 at the disposal of the Lord Bishop ibr one year, on the ap])lication of the Eeverend K. C. Parkin, foi' the juirpose of affording the ministrations of the Church to a new settlement of Ger- mans and Norwegians in the township of Ditton. widows' and orphans' fund. The Widows' and Orphans' Fund has been increased during the year by S15G7 . 15, and now amounts to $22512.29. Tho existing claims upon it amount to $200 per ainium. The Boai'd regrets to oliserve that several of the Clergy who are subscribers to this fund have not been sufficiently careful to comply with the requirements of the By-Law V 11 (4 witli regard to the payment of their subseriplions, and the prcaeliinL'- of two sej-mons.-'- ]t is necessary to point out that the ett'ect of such failure involves, unless by s])eeial favor of the Board, the forl'eilurc of all advantage to be derived from the fund. PENSION FUND. The Board is gratified to find that tlii.s fund has attracted, in some instances, the attention it deserves ; special subscrip- tions, donations and collections, amounting to $291.1)7 l)aving been received in aid of it. The fund has now reached $1851,64. EDUCATION. The Education Committee reports that the number of schools aided during the year by the Cimrch Society is seven- teen, towards which assistance lias been given at the rate of $454 per annum. The Committee cannot but feel that this most important work languishes from the inadequacy of the means at command for its maintenance, and that even though it acts in co-0]ieration rith the Committee of the Colonial and Con- tinental Church (Society, and the grants of both institutions in most instances sup])lement local assessments and Govern- m'ent aid, neither the character nor the number of the schools is sutficient to justify it in presenting an encouraging re]M)rt. It is true that in many, — the Committee is glad to be able to believe in most, — cases, the result oht.uned is fully equal to the cx])ectations which the Board is entitled to indulge in proportion to its expenditure; but there is ample ground for renewing the expression of hist year's report, that ''there must always remain the difticulty of obtaining efficient teachers so long as the pittance usually alforded to them is so scanty and ])recarious." All the schools mentioned in the last re]M)rt as aided by the Society luive been on its list during the past year, and five others have been placed upon it, one at Labrador, and four in the extensive mission of St. Sylvester. The schools at Bourg Ijouis and Portneuf have been inspected during the year by the lies. E. G. Flees. The following tabu- lar statement will shoAV the schools now on the list, with the names of teachers, average attendance, and amount of aid given by the Society.

The .Depository Committco reports tliat it has granted during the year to ditl'ereiit clergymen, for distribution, six bibles, eighteen testaments, four dozen prayer books, eight dozen catechisms, &c., and books for Sunday Scliools to the value of 610.

The value of new books imported during the year is $537.- 15. The imposition hy the legislature of a duty on books has unavoidably raised the price of those recently imported, but the Committee is gratified to observe that the number sold very considerably exceeds that of the preceding year, particularly that of pra3'er books. The Committee has found it expedient to withdraw the privilege, heretofore enjoyed by subscribers to the depository fund, of purchasing at a reduced rate. Every clergyman in the diocese is entitled to tracts to the value of $3 in each year, without any application to tlie Committee. A branch dejtository has been established by the St. Fr.ancis District Association, and is in successful operation at Sher- brooke. The local depository Committee reports that it has imported books to the value of £48.1, stg., and that the amount of sales for the yoiw has been $160.03. The Society for Pronu)ting Christian Knowledge having, with its accus- tomed liberality, made a grant of books in aid of the establish- ment of this depository, besides supplying those paid for at reduced prices, the depository has become already self- supporting. This is partly due to the liberality of the person in whoso charge it is placed, who undertakes the sale without any retnuueration and bestows eminent cai ) on the advance- ment of its prosperity. A renewed application has been made for the establishment of a branch depository in the district of Gaspe, on which, however, the Committee has as yet been unable to take any final action. 14 ClirUCII HUILDINO, &C. The followinf^ <^rants huvo been made during the year towardH the Ijiiildiiig of churcheH and pai-sonage.s, out of tho Hpecial fund ]dat'ed at tho disposal of tlio lioard by tho Society for Promoting Cliristian Knowledge, wbieh has recently voted, on the application of the Row (1. V. Jlousnian, made in England on behalf of the Board, an additional sum of£150stg.' Towards a wooden church at St. Cieorge, on the river Chaudicre, 850. Towards a stono church at Eaton, $200. Towards tho erection of a new jiarsonage at Kingsoy, $\50. Towards rejiairs of parsonage at Leeds, §-tO. Tho Board has had much satisfaction in knowing that all these grants have been made in support of unusually largo and praiseworthy local ctlbrts. In connection with the buildingof churches and parsonages it may be proper here to mention that the Boartl has been in communication with the Diocesan Board with reference to adopting means for the insurance of ecclesiastical buildings. It is r, matter of regret that no arrangement has yet been come to on this subject; that it is one of pressing importance is apparent from the fact that two parsonages have been burnt during the year, neither of which Avas insured. ENDOWMENT KUNPS. The Mission of Cape Cove and Perci' has added one to tho list of endowment funds, (now numbering til'teen,) held in trust by the Society. The Board made a grant of $150 to- wards it. The amounts of these funds, and the mode of their investment, will l)e seen on reference to the re])()rt of tho Clergy Trust Fund. The Board is glad to bo able to report that the Society for the Propagation of tho Crosjiel has voted an addition of 20 ])er cent to each of the funds i-aised since tho date of its resolution for the encouragement of endowments, and included in the list transmitted by the Central Board in 1867. It is proposed to make a further aj^plication on behalf of those missions which have raised endowment funds since that date. DISTRICT ASSOCIATIONS.

J^'ranci.s Assoeiatlon has lurnished tlie IJoard Vvilh its an- nual rejiort, read at the annual meeting-, held at Sherbrooko on the Itith Deeeniber la4. One very gratityini;' feature of this repoi't, whieh is heielo ii])jjen(led, is that it distinctly rccojfnizes the duty of earryin«^- the ministrations of tho Church, not only to destitute places Avithin the diocese, hut also to the heathen in tliei-egions beyond us : a duty of which tho Association was specially reminded by the recent visit of tho Bislioj) of Kupert's Land to Lennoxviile, and for tho dis- charge of which, throuo-h tho agency of tho Societ}', pro- vision was nnide, in its By-laws "at its first foundati(;n. Tlio lioport of the St. Francis JJistrict is accompanied by local reports from tho (dergy, Avhicli, as well as those from other parts of the diocese, will be presented with that of tho Diocosan Board. It is matter of great satisfaction to observe the interest taken by Churchmen in tho proceedings of this as.sociation, and the remarkably exact manner in which the duties of its treasurer are discluxrged. A regular 'series of missionary meetings has been held, under tho auspices of tho association, throughout the district, of which the Kural Dean, who, in every instance, Avas a member of tho deputation, has fiu'iiishod a very clear and satisfactory report, .shewing a result of seventeen meetings, attended bj' 882 persons, and of collections made amounting to $122.14. ^J'um- bcr of mUes travelled by deputation, 500. Those ligures do not include tho mooting of tho Diiitrict Association held at Sherbrooko, nor thatat Bishop's College on the occasion of tho visit of tho Bishop of Eupert's Land. One result of these meetings i.s probably to be seen in tho contributions raised in 8omo wealthier places within tho district towards the maintenance of feebler missions. Tho total amount reported by the St. Francis District Association as contributed to tho Society during the year is as follows. General Fund 8282.35 Widows' and Orphams' Fund 61.34 Pension Fund 13.20 Mission Fund 320.20 $077.09 A series of missionary meetings in connection with tho Society was also held in the county of Megantic in tho end of January last. Tho llural Dean of tho Quebec Deanery 'I I 1 i I 16 having been provonted from attonding, his place was, at his request, most kindly and efficiently supplied by the Kev. G. M. Innes, who reported an attendance at eight meetings of about 300 persons. Mj*. Innes expressed liimself *' much gratified by the earnestness and interest in Church matters at all these meetings displayed by all present." Parochial reports have been received from clergymen in difl'erent parts of the diocese, the results of whose efforts will be shewn in the tabular statement to be published herewith. INCOME, *c.

The i:\crcaso in the receipts on ac- count of the General fund iia:^ been $900, which, however. Includes a special donation of $500 alrcjuly mentioned. In the Mission fund the increase has been nearly $350. The attention of the Central Board having been specially called to the inexpediency of investing the funds of the Society in bank stock, the amount so invested heretofore on account of different funds have been realized, and, as far as possible, re-invested in a satisfactory manner. There are outstanding grants of previous years amounting to $250, chargeable to the Special Fund. The Society has sustained a loss by the retirement of Viscount Monck from the Government of Cana;enerally known.

(•) In thohope of removipp: this ia;nornnce and lack of interest, tho Central Board caused to be printed and circulated during th« year an admirable address delivered before the Society in 18G7, by R.

The Diocesan Board, in present iii,i( tlielr Annual Keport to the Church Society, liave the f;Tatiticatiou ot'annoiincin^j that their hibours durinij the past year have been Messed with a fair measure of success, and that in conse([uence it will bo in their ])o\ver to extend their operations over _<2;r<)nnd hitherto unoccu])ied. Tills ha])py result is due, under the Divine favour, to the increase in the local assessments throui^hout the Diocese, and the delay accorded by the Society for the Propagation of the Gospel in the reduction of its i^rant. The termination of tlie tri-ennial period for which the local contributions were ])lcdiijcd, as well as the aid from the So- ciety for the Propai^ation of the (Jospcl, synchronizing with the close of 18G8, the subject of increasing the local asHese- mtMits has chietly occupied the attention of the Board during the past year. In July 18l»7, a letter was addressed to the Lord Bishop by the Secretary of the Society for the J*ropagation of the Gospel, which ]n'e])ared the Board to antici])ate a very ma- terial reduction, ami an intimation of this intention was pub- lished throughout the Diocese in a circular issued in the month of January last, in which care was taken to inform all the congregations that this reduction must necessarily in- volve an increase in their own contributions. In the month of A])ril, deputations, in each case consisting of one clergyman and one laynian, Averc appointed to confer with the clergyniiin, churcli-wardens and people of each mission, with that object in view, and were put in possession of all the facts touching both the tinancial circumstances of the Diocese, and the anxiety manifested by new con- gregations to obtain tiie full ministrations of the Church, which made it obligatory upon all to increase their sub- scriptions. 20 The ri'siilts rcporlc'l nn'. upon llu> wlinlc. «'(U'itiii'im'i;iLf.

Thus the total amount of local t-ontrihutions will lie 6 hope that this elforl on tlie part of tlu' scattered ])cople of this ]»oor Hiocese will not be overlooked by the A'enei'ahlc Society in J'ji^huul wlien the question of reduein^ its i^rant a,i!,ain conii's before it. When the (h'])Utat ions were a])p()inted. they wert' sj)eeially' instructed to draw the attention of the eon^'iv^'ations to the projjosed reduction of the Society's grant for the next thi-ce year.s, an intimation of which bad been ])revi<»usly made known to them. This ii'duclion the Hoard had reason to appreiiend would amount to ten ]>er cent, an ar<;umenl whicli was no doubt of great Aveight with the ])e()plc and made nse of in good faith. >,'ow as It turns out liappily tor the Diocese, the Society makt's no reduction Avhalever for LS(i!), reserving to itself however the right of doing so at the close of the year. The J^oard desire to point to the fact that the positive announcement made ))y the Society for the I'ropu- »• ^ r ^ 21 ii^alioM of tlio (iospel was rocoivi'il l<»ii«ij afltM' iniwt of tlio • li'itiitations liail visili'(l tlio <'oiio;rt'i;atiniis.

' But the prospect held out that a reduction may be decided upon at its close compels us to recognize the precarious position of Iho Church's resources in this Diocese. It ou^ht further to be taken as an additional intimation that we arc on our probation, and that if Ave are to seek for continued aid, we can only liope to do so with success, by pointing the Society to the over increasing endeavours wo arc making in the direction of self-support. And that the best eiforts of all true Churchmen are still loudly called for is plain from the simple fact, that notwithstanding the in- crease in the assessments and the non-reduction of the S. P. G. grant, the Board are not yet in a position to assist in augmenting the scanty ijicomcs of the clergy. The increase in the means at the disposal of the Board will be entirely consumed in opening new missions. A feeling exists, Avhich is daily gaining strength among kity as avcH as clergy, that the true interests of the Church would be better promoted by raising the salaries of the ]n'c- sent staff of clergy, and thus exempting them from vexatious and unsuitable anxieties and occu})ations, to the clear gain of time and eiiei-gy devoted to their ])roi)er calling. Jiut the Board, in view of the ]n'essing claims presented to them by new congregations, some of whom had I leeu encouraged to expect assistance, did not feel justiticd as }et in fully admitting this prii.ciple. It is therefore now their pleasing duty to announce that four missions, not ]»i'evi(Uisly aided by the Hoard, will have the full religious blessings I'lijoyi-d by those who have been long before moi-e fortunately cii'cumstanced. Tlieso Missions arc Georgeville, Avhich contributes half the clergyman's salary ; Kingsey, which is also pledged for $l}00 per annum ; Durham, ct)ntribuling $225 ; and 3Iagog, an entirely ncAV field for the Church, whicn guai-antces $200 per annum. The Board would take this opportunity of thanking those gentlemen (some of wiiom are not members of the Board,) who kindly midcrtook the labour of visiting the congrega- tions during the past year. They gladly acknowledge that it is due in a high degree to tlieir able and earnest represen- tations that so good a feeling lias been evinced by. the people whom they visited. Some passing reference may be due to the nUe laid down by the Board, in accordance Avitli which the services at any 23 particular church are discontinued under the authority of the Bisliop in the case of the congregation falling into arrears for more than three months. The Board observed that, when no inconvenience resulted, some congregations were prone to neglect in making their quarterly payments, forgetful of the fact that it was the cause of inflicting a serious hardshi^j upon the clergyman, who was thus prevented from drawing his stipend. The interruption of the services, it was deemed, would exercise the needful pressure, a surmise the correctness of which time has 80 far vindicated. Two cases have occurred where the notices have been given, and in both instances with the desired eifect. The weak point in the rule seems to be that it in- volves both innocent and guilty in one common penalty, (a result however which is not peculiar to this enactment) since it is those individuals in a congregation who seldom attend the services, and consequently care little for their with- drawal, who arc negligent in the payment of their subscrip- tions. In practice, however, the rule seems to have conferred nnmixcd good. The Canon, passed at the last sessioii of the Synod, which '' provides for an enquiry Avhen any mission declines to meet the requiren\ents of the Diocesan Board," has been acted upon in one iii>tance. The enquiry resulted in the retire- ment of the missionary, with the allowance of half a year's salary, of which $200 was provided by the congregation. The iioard of enquiry for the deanery of (laspo are now taking action in the case of the mission of ^lalbaie, and their re])ort is daily looked for by the Board. .During the ])eriod embraced in this report the Lord Bisho]) made the following appointments, which were con- curred in by the Board. In July 18(!T, the Ilovd. R. C. Tambs to the mission of Bourg Louis. In January of the past year, the Revd. II. Roe to the mission of Kichmond and Melbourne. In July, the Bevd. J. F, Carr to the mission of Durham, whose appointment dates from his ordination. In November, Mr. Jas. Morrison to the mission of Magog, whose appointment will also date from his ordination. In November, the Revd. Jas. Boydell to the mission of Bourg Louis and Portneuf, rendered vacant by the resigna- tion of the Revd. R. C. Tambs. During the absence of the Lord Bishop, in attendance at the Lambeth Conference, the Bishop's Commissary, the Rev. m^ 24 A. W. ^fountain, sanctioiu'd an cxcliaiio-e of missions lictwcon Iho Ecv. F. A. .Sniitli, ol'daspr Jiasiii, and Rex. J. V. liich- mond of Leeds, Avliieli was concurred in. The Board have also to annonnco the retirement of tlio Rev. J. Dalzlcl and the Rev. 10. AV. lloss on pensions of $5400 jicr annnm each. The resignation of C. N. Monti/aml)ert, Esq., will n^ake it necessary for the Church Society to elect a member to till the vacancy thus occasioned in the Board. The Eeports obtained fromtlio clei-gy arc annexed and will no doubt aid the Church Society in forming a true opinion of the "condition and prospects" of the Missionary stations assisted by the Jioard. A. A. Yon Iffland, Assistant Secretary, The following comnnniication from the Society for tlie Pro- pagation of the Cfospel, received too late to be refeiTcd to in the above report, is commended to the ser'ous consideration of tlie Cliurch Society. All the available funds at the dispo- sal of the Eoard being ap])ropriato(l to the support of mis- sionaries for three years, unless the deficiency caused }>y the contem])lated reduction — to be ])ut in force in ISTO — in sup- plied by an increased grant from the Church Society, it w^ill be im|)ossible for the Eoard tt) maintain its existing engagements. 5, Park Place.

The grant which was recent 1}' made for the Lioceso of Quebec will expire on 81st December, ISO!); and 1 beg leave to remind your lordship that any a|)])lication for its renewal is requireil by the Society to be sent so as to reach us before 15th March, 1809. 2. I am sorr}' that it is my duty to state that the Societ}-, in its desire to give the utmost supymrt to the Church in foreign parts, and relying inore confidently than the event has justified on the sympathy of the Cliurch at lioine, has made its recent grants on so liberal a scale, that we are now endcavoiiring to collect a Deficiency Fund in order to fulfil those obligations. The Working Fund, which now constitutes tLe whole capital of the Society, and is essential to the I- ^ r * .? I T. r '25 -#■ ^■ f V regular payment of tlio bills from ahi'oad, has been absorbed to .such a (loiri-eo, that our treasurers calculate on being oompcllcd to borrow a sum of at least £12,000 this year. TJjiless, therefore, any unforeseen circumstances should occur to increase largely the Society's income, it "will be obviously necessary lo reduce Iho exjienditure, and the amount of such probable reduction was declared by a recent resolution of the Society to bo at least ten per cent. 3. You will readily believe that it would be much more agreeable to us to be able to annouiu-e to you an increase rather than a decrease in the assistance likely to be afforded to the Colonial Church, but it is duo to you that wc should give you the earliest possible intimation of a prospective reduction afler 18G9. 4. If your answer to any of the particular inquiries in the annexed schedule should be the same as your answer to the inquii'ies of last year, it will suiiicc to refer for such particulars to that answer.

Tho great object of holding the anniversary of this Asso- ciation is to give a just and true report of what has been accompKshcd during the past year ; to encourage one another in our eftbrts to develop and carry on tho work of our be- loved Church in the District of St. Francis. It is only upon such occasional reviews that we are enabled to discover where the workings of the Society have proved a. blessing to the peo- ple and where opportunities of usefulness have been lost. It is only thus that our liearts can be cheered with devout thankfulness for happy results or cast down with a conscious- ness of neglected duty. Fvery year ])resonts to us new fields of labour and places uj)on (Joil's j)eople additional responsi- bility. Every year convinces us of the necessity of wisdom and zeal in the dischai'ge of those duties which our member- ship with Christ's Churcli places upon us. Amongst the evidences which arise I'oi' oui* iMu-ouragement, the first which ])resents itself to our notice is the great desire manifested for tlie due administration of tho ordinaiu-es of the Church. AVe have fi'om the ])iM)ple of Hereford. ( Jeorgeville, Magog and Kingsey the most earnest calls tor assistance. These places have all of them promised aci-ording to their means to meet tiie J)iocesan 'Board in the event of their being placed upon its list of missions. At present Hereford is supplied with semi-monthly ser- vices by the Kev. R. C. Tambs, tutor in mathematics at Jiishop's College. The mission of Kingsey is to be brought under tho Board on the 1st January, 18GJ), with the Kev. G.II. Parker as Incumbent, the mission paying S300 per annum. Georgoville, which has up to the present time been mainly dependent upon local resources, aided by a subscrii)tion from this town and other places, and which is served by the Ecv. J. Thornloe, comes under tho Diocesan Board on the 1st of January, 1869, and contributes $.300 per annum : and Magog 27 is provided for fortlio next five yours by ii local contribution of fooO, $200 from the Board and $200 from a L'ontleman of ;llki liberality, llobt. Hamilton, E :nown lioeraiity, itoDt. iiamuion, tisq., of Qiiobec. Another feature of encouragement arises in the way in which the increased assessments of the Diocesan Eoard havo been met by the .several congregations. All those missions where this assessment has been raised feel the necessity which exists for increased cxer'ion and show a readiness to do what they can to meet it. These are subjects calculated to inspire us with hope for the future. The only feature which carries discouragement in it is the inability of tho Board to increase the number of its clergy, and by a division of the larger missions more effectually carry on the work of the Church in destitute places ; but if it be a feature of dis- couragement, it is one which should admonish ns individually to enter with all our hearts into the use of those means with which God has provided us, and seeking Clod's grace to en- deavour that such opportunity may not be lost to the Church's influence or charged to the negligence of a profesbcdl}^ chris- tian people. Your Committee feel that tho time has arrived when even greater efforts than those of self-support should constitute a part of our christian duty ; when wo should not only endea- vour to become a self-supporting Church, but should begin to feel that, as part and parcel of that great nation which is set as the evangclizer of the world, we too should be so far actuated by a missionary spirit as to aid in sending to distant lands (rod's fail hful ministers to preach the gospel to every creature. Let us hope that when our peoj)le see their true position they will ri,se to fill it. Let us have faith in Cod's promises " honor tho Lord with tiiy substance, and Avith the first-fruits of thine increase ; so shall thy barns be filled with plenty, and th}^ presses shall burst out with new wine." Reports have been received from the following missions : Coaticook and Barford, 81iii)ton and Tingwick, Drummond- ville, Siiorbrookc, Compton, Acton, Ccorgeville, Stanstead^ Lennoxville, Cookshiro and Ilatley. To these has been added a Report from the Reverend the Rural Dean. These rei)oits contain many important matters of Church interest, any abstract of which would convey but a faint idea of the real work of the Church, and as the reading of them would take u]) much valuable time from some of those addresses with which we are to be favoured by the gentlemen who have kindly consented to take part in this evening's pro- 28 o-rammo, it is not tli()ni;'ht dosiniblo to trogptiss upon tlio time of this audience by a more leu^-lhy report. Edwaud Clllkn Paukin, Secretary, St. Francis District Association. EEPoirr OF laaiAL di-iax of st. feancts. Tlic Eejiort of the Pisivict Association of the Churcli Society is scarcely conii)]ete witliout a few words fi-oni tiio Eural Dean, whose olHce, though its duties liave special reference to the Bishop, is yet intimately connected with tho Churcli Society. The rules of the District Association re- quire the presence of the Chaij-man, (the Senior ('lei-yman of the District.) or tho Vice-Chairman, (the .'Jural Dean) or tho Secretary, at the Annual ^leetings of the Parochial Associa- tions. And it is an understood, thouo-h not directly specitied, duty of the Pural Dean, that he shall arrange and carry out a scheme of annual missioiuii-y meetings throughout tho District. During the jtast year this has heen accomplished. The ^Missionary tour of ISGS hi'gan in January and ended in December. The Northern District was visited in January hy a de])U- tation. consisting of the IJiiral Dean and the JJeverends J. Foster and If. J. Petry. Meetings win'o held (between tho Gth and 10th,) in Tingwick, Danville, Kingsey, Drunuuond- ville, and Actonvale. On account of the vacaiu-y of tho mission, ^Melboui-ne was omitted, and also Dui'ham. They were 8ubse(piently visited b}' the same deputation in December. The Eastern Disti-ict was visited in Mai-ch. Tho de])uta- tion consisted of the .Rural Dean and the Peverends J. Kemp and T. Jiichardson. Although the weathej* was veiy stoi'rny, so that there was at times no track visible, meetings were held at the following places ; Pobinson. Prookbuiy, Dud.s- well Corner. MarbleiOJi and Cookshire. on the 3rd 4th, and 5th. The Southern District was taken piecemeal. In I'ebruary (4th and 5th), meetings wei'c held at Compton and Coaticook, tho incumbeiits aecom])anying the l^ii-al J)ean to eacli others' missions, as a de])ulatioii. Siibse(juently, (on tlio 22nd March), a meeting was held at the A Idridge school house, in the mission of Compton, where the JJural Dean 'f 29 wiis jissisttMl by W. .Miiyo, B.A. ()ii llio 2;ird August, a uicetiug- was lu-lil ut (icoi-gcville, in which the licvoronds 1{. Lindsay and K. I'Y'sscndon, of the Dioceso of Montreal, kindly gave thcii- aid. On iho 28th (the incmnbent being of ()])inion that a meeting would be a failure in his mission,) the Itural Dean ])reaehed for the Society at Stanstead. No meeting was held in llntley, Cliarleston or AVaterville, as the incumbent deemed it unadvisable to liold any. He held out hopes, liowever, of a vigorous effort, I). V., next year. A great local eiV(n't has been made in this mission during the past year. The meeting at Lennoxvillo was lield in October. The collection -was given to the Lord Bisliop of Eupert's Land, wlio was present and addressed tlie meeting at considerable length. A collection was made for the Society, after a ser- mon, in the College Oha])el. Xo Parochial Missionary meet- ing was held at Sherbrouke : such meelings being superseded by the annual meeting of the whole District Association. The result of those meetings will be submitted in a tabu- lar form. One or two suggestions may, possibly, not be out of place. 1. It seems advisalile that there should be more formally recogni/.ed and regularly occurring meetings of all the rarochial Associations of the Church Society in the District. 2. These meetings might be made to svnchronize with the Missionary meetings. 8. The '.Missionary ]\reetings (and Parochial Association meetings) should be held, as far as possible, at the same period of the year, throughout the ])istrict. 4. Meetings ought to held at all outposts where services iiro regularly held at other times. 5. The Parochial Associations seem to requiro considerable development to make them thorouglily eflftcient.

In reviewing the state of this mission for the last year, there are reasons to be thankful to the Author of all good in that whilst the village of Acton Vale still remains in a very depressed condition with respect to business of all kinds, the Church still holds her ground. When the deputation visited us this autumn in order to arrange about the assessment to the Board for the next three years, most of the congregation, contemplating merely the untoward circumstances which oppress us, and not the pro- mise of a faithful God, desired a reduction. However, after opening a subscription list, many who before had contributed nothing towards the Board voluntarily came and jnit down their names: a pleasing indication of God's help in blessing His own work and making successful our imperfect etlbrts to advance His kingdom. And to the agreeable disappointment of many, we found ourselves able to keep u]i the assessment as heretofore. To tliis the Board lias agreed, a fortimate thing for this mission, especially as the assessments of most otlier missions have been increased. Our case, however, is an exceptional one , and it would not have been reasonable to demand another increase in our assessment, when on July 1st, 1807, it had been virtu- ally increased by sixty dollars, with also a requisition to pay up all arrears by quarterly payments of fifteen dollars. Before that time the liability of the Board to the Acton Mission from other revenues than those forwarded from hero amounted to $250 per annum, and by the new arrangement they pay from the same source only $190. Since then, we have been enabled, though not without much difficulty, to pay all our dues, up to the present time. a2 The f()llo\viii- a total of. e:JH8.14 EXPENDED AS FOLLOWS : Assessments to Board 61(50.00 Arrears to Boanl UO.OO Inslahueiit on Parsoiiai-'e deht, and interest on priii{'ii)al I'l J'>') Assessment to Synod 1.00 Sunday School M a^a/.i nes 14.75 Insurance of'Chuirh and rarsonai;-e 4.71 Offertory Collection at .Missionary .Meclinii;. 8.2.5 Three i\ni\ual collections Ibr Church Socielv. 4.40 Quarterly c(^llcclions lor Cleriiyman 7.()8 Expenses ibr Avood, clean ini;- of chui'ch, A:c.... .'J8.()7 Cash on hand 2.05 $888.14 III this stafenient tlu're is cviai(l an instalment on the jiarsonage debt.

AVe make no noise, we arc not fond of display, but the leaven of sound teaching, grounded upon Church ])rinci])les, is permeating the protes- tant popiilution silently luit surely. Puritan prejudices against infant baptism, so rife in this, S]uritually speaking, unhappy township, are ra]»idly disajipcaring. ]lad we but u few Church schools, Shipton would become a promising section of the Church vineyard. In this township, as I 8up])0se in all the others, education and religion are divorced. The unnatural se])arat ion cannot but be productive, in the end, of the head being educated at the expense of the heart, on the part of the rising genera- tion. I am glad to state that a solid new flooring has been laid in the church at Danville. This may sur]>rise some, as the church itself is a com])aratively new building, but I presume those who laid the first floor, or built the foundation, are better prepared than I am to ati'ord an explanation. 39 The tower has received some nccessarj^ repairs and a new cliimney. Double windows arc in process of construct ion, so that our little church will soon bo (what it has never yet been) very conitbrtable. The congregation keep u]) to the usual mark in point of numbers, as also does the .Sunday school, in which I am assisted by the regular and valuable ettbrts of Mrs. Chester Cleveland, jr. The Shipton register shows twelve baptisms and ten burials siiu-e the 1st January 18G8. No marriages. In con- clusion, 1 have again to thank the wardens, Messrs. Carter and Boutclle, of -Danville, and Messrs. Thurber and Ewing, of Tingwick, for theij* re-elected services. These gentlemen seem to feel, and to have fiood grounds for feeling, that the very existence of the mission depends upon the will, courage and intelligent forbearance which they have to exercise in manag- ing the linancial department of their duties. Our people should remember, and as the hint is kindly given, so it should be kindly received, that it would save a world of trouble, were they not to wait to bo as Iced or written to for what they have honour- ably engaged to ])ay, but to bring the amount to either of the wardens at the appointed time, and so assist in softening the difficulties the Avardens experience in keeping matters in an honourable and prosjjerous financial condition. Hknry James Petry, B. A. P. S. — 1 forgot to add that my Shipton visiting list exhibits the names of sixty-six families, living within an area of two hundred square miles. Domiciliary visits are paid once a quarter. The Wardens of Danville report ^75, as the amount of Offertory Collections during the year. The assessment paid to the Diocesan Board by Danville and Tingwick is $193 75. DURHAM. 1 entered upon the labours of this mission on the 4th October, 18G8. An increasing interest in religious matters had been awak- ened in Upper Durham by the efforts of the Eev. Henry Roe, who liad continued gratuitously the services interrupted by the death of the late Eev. S. S. Wood. Occasional services had been held at South Durham station through the kindness and exertions of the Rev. L. C. Wurtele, of Actonvale. And L'Avenir had been for a considerable period entirely des- titute of the ministrations of the Church. 40 . li In Upper and South Durham I have doubled the number of the services ; have restored tlie services to L'Avenir ; and have opened a fourth station at Black lliver. The distances of the three latter stations from my residence in Upper Durham are respectively twelve, seven, and four miles. The greatest distance travelled on a Sunday is twenty-four miles. In Upper Durham services is held every Sunday morning, occasionally on a week-day evening, and on the principal holy- days. The largest number attending church has been 206 j the least about 100. The Sunda)'' School, Avhich I superintend immcdiatcl}- after morning service, contains ninety scholars, instructed by seven teachers. The following collections have been made : — For an organ 650.00; for a Sunday School library ^16. 00; for the Church Society $21.00; for W. and O. fund $2.50 ; for clergyman's salary $10.3.00; Collections made l>y ])arochial association $10.00. In addition to this is the weekly offertory, from 50 cts. to $2.00 — and the weekly Sundaj' School collection averaging 30 cts. In South Durham I hold a fn'tnightly service on Sunday afternoon. The largest congregation has been 103, the least 21. Hitherto we have occupied a small school-house; but owing to the increased attendance the Town Hall will bo open- ed for the next service. The peojjle have subscribed $85.00 to the clergyman's salary. On account of an endeavour to raise funds for the erection of a church during the coming summer, none of the usual collections have been made. In L'Avenir, a French village of about 1000 inhabitants, I hold a fortnightly service, also, oii vSunday afternoons. The greatest number in attendance here has been 52 : the smallest 22. But 1 hope in time, through the blessing of (lod, to gather together a much larger congregation. The subscription to my salary in $32.00. The parochial association has collected $4.00. At the Black River the congregation is necessarily limited by the size of the house, which will hold only about 50. The Sunday-school contains 45 scholars under four teachers, and is ably superintended every Sunday afternoon by Mr. Albert Stevens, one of the teachers of the Upper Durham school. A considerable sum has been raised for the purchase of a Sunday School library. y" V -« • i-^ \ n- 41 In addition to these four stations I hope in the spring to open two more, })rin(ipjilly for tlio suke of the Sunday Schools. With tlie ussistanco of a hiy reader, however, 1 shall be able to hold occasional services in them. Since I have come to the mission I have christened in the church seven infants, had two marriages, and one burial. I am now catechising at my various stations 75 young people for confirmation. J have also a class of ten adults prejjaring for baptism by the iiisho]), when the confirmation services are held. I would notice, before closing, a gratifying fact in connection with the mission. The late licv. 8. S. Wood loft to Trinity Church, Upper Durham, 19 acres of land, 12 for a parsonage and 7 for a Church school. And 1 see every prospect of being able to open a first-class school before the end of another year. In mentioning this gift I would take the opportunity to thank Samuel liail, Esq., my warden at L'Avenir, for the gift of a fine linen surplice, and the people of Upper Durham for their very generous addition to my salary. May God bless the work of the Church in this county. John F. Carr, B. A. Total amount reported as subscribed for Church pm'poses, $383.50. DUD3WELL AND PARTS ADJACENT. -^ -r ■t • The morning service at St. Paul's, Marbloton, has been regu- larly sustained throughout the year, as has been the case ever since the completion of the church thirteen years ago. My out-lying stations. South Ham, Westbury, ajid School-house No. 1, South Dudswfcll, liave been regularly visited for even- ing prayer in rotation, with an occasional service for Ham. Road and the small settlements in the township of Stoke. Owing to the widely scattered population of this mission, and the consequent difficulty of assembling the children for Sunday school instruction, I conceived the idea and carried into effect last winter, the founding of a library and school in almost every school district within the mission. This required quite and effort among so poor a people as ours. Over a hundred dollars were obtained for this purpose. These schools, six in number, have been maintained with tolerable regularity, and I havo delivered special addresses before the children in presence of their parents, at most of them during the present year. 42 The following monies have boon eolloctod during tlio year : Proceeds of missionary meeting $ 9.20 Offertory j.OO Subscriptions to Church Society ... 15.00 Sermon for General Purijoscs Fund 2.00 Assessment 75.00 ^116. 20 The subscriptions are not yot all collected, but they will be remitted directly to the parent Society by the close of the year. Tiios. S. C11AP.MAN. ! \ li| EATON. The work of the Church in this mission is progressing as favourably as my most sanguine expectations ever led me to hope. On the 23rd September, the Lord Bishop laid the corner- stone of our new church, thus commencing a work for which prepai'ation had been made last year by an aj^peal to the congregation for funds. In less than three months from its commencement, the walls of the (diui-ch were up and a con- tract entered into for rooting before the ajiproach of an inclement season ; this has, however, been somewhat retarded by a disappointment in obtaining the necessary lumber, which should have been delivei-ed belWre the setting in of bad roads. The old church, one of the ])rimitive church edifices of the townships, erected just lifty years ago, had become quite untitfor use. Built in the good old days when ])ine was in abundance, it presented to the 1)uilding committee a legiti- mate ol)ject for spoliation in order to apply the material to the use of the new church. Wo have had therefore to tit up an old store for our Sunday services, and I am happy to say they are better attended than those of the old church, which fact Ijcsjjeaks our want of a more comely place of worship. Hitherto no extraneous aid, beyond the usual grant from the Church Society, has been solicited to- wards the erection of our church, and it has consequently been a heavy tax upon the resources of my people, who only number twenty-five families. Still, had it not been for the increased assessment of the Diocesan Board, we did hope, with but little foreign aid, to have faced and overcome our ditScul- :r3 ties. My monthly service at Avmvood has been unfailingly kept up. I entered upon those services as upon a hard tield, with hope and fear. 1 have been cheered in my work by kindness- es and evidences of good. I have been depressed by some untoward circumstances. " But we have this treasure in earthen vessels, that the excellency of the power may be of God and not of us." Jt is my intention to keep up these ser- vices 80 long as tliey are sutiiciently Avell attended to warrant my doing so. 1 acknowledge with gratitude the able support and kind co-operation rendered me in my ettbrts at church- building by the Building Committee, Messrs. J. P. Taylor, 0. Cook, and E. 11. Wilford. My acknowledgments are also due to the two former gentlemen as my indefatigable church war- dens. Two ladies of my congregation, Miss M. E. Tirrell and Miss Wilford, are entitled to an expression of my high appre- ciation of their services ; they have collected for the Society the sum of $22.77|.

This mission contains two congregations and two churches, St. Paul's, Caspe Basin, and St. James', situated three miles beyond the Basin Point. St. Paul's Church, Gaspo Basin, is the oldest church in the mission, and is t^ist approaching a condition when repairs will bo of little avail, the walls having spread more than four inches during the past year, and an iron bar which runs from one wall-plate to the other being the only thing which pre- vents the building being past use. A church building fund was established two years ago, and "iimounts, I believe, at the present time to about $150. And I trust that when the necessity arises, the present building will be replaced by a u i,: r new church. The asscMsmcnt hitlicrto has been derived from the pew-rate and ainounteil to about $5 per pew. The ad- ditional sum of $50 lias been mot by vohmtary contributioiiH extending over the tliree years, from Jany. 18()f), to Dee. 1872. The Churcli wardens were imwilliiii^ to ehanie(l lor yeai-s j)ast. For these reu- Hons little has been done in the way of raisin<( contributions for tho ('hureh Society. 1 trust, however, Avhen the ])arson- ai,'0 is out of (leltl, which I hope soon to accomplish, we shall be enabled to do more than we have in the past for the sup- port of the Society, f am pleased to say that the assessment of the Diocesan Hoard in Waterville has been paid in, irro- spectivo of myself, with the utmost punctuality, (quarterly in advance. The assessment in JIatley has been paid to tho clcrtfyman. I wish it was manayvd in tho same Avay as at Waterville, sent direct to the treasurer of tho IJoard. Amount raised for Cleri^'yman's stipenn some of the ])rin- cipal fasts and festivals. 1 have also a "\veek-day evening* service every Friday, alternately at four illations, far distant from any of the churches. Formerly 1 held these week-day services oii the Wednesdays, but I find Friday to be better adapted to my own convenience for ]iarochial visitations, and more particularly as it is tho day of the week on which we commemorate the death of our blessed Lord. The services of the Church are veiy well attended, and the number of worshippers continues to inci-ease. The two Sunday-schools were in successful operation, as in former years, during tho summer season. Mr. Wood's family, who are always ready for every good Avork, continue to take a prominent ])art in conducting the one in connection with Trinity Church. The assessment of the mission for the throe years ending this day, has all been paid. 31 St Dec., 1868. Contributions to Church Society 6 39.24 Total for Church purposes 15)1 , 94 R. G.

This mission was re-opened on tlie 25th January la.st, having bceti cloted for about six nu)nths. The servlce.-i in the mission are four full services every Sunday at three stations, and three Sunday-schools. My own Sunday work is three services and two Sunday-schools, the other service and Sunday-school being taken by mv K'ind and efficient helper, Mr. Tail. His public iidmission by the Lord Bishoji to tho oflice of Itcader was an event of importance to this mission. It took place in St. .Tohn's church, Melboui-ne, on Sunday mcu-ning, the IGth of .May last, the ]teophi of that congregation having previous- 61 ly fcjiMUJillj' invited Mr. Tait to labour amon^ them. Tho service was one of great interest, and made a deep impression on tho crowded congregatiou who witnessed it. The number of communicants on tlie occasion was hirge. Mr. Tait has since taken tho service and Sunda\'-school at St. John's cliurch every alternate Sunday afternoon. His spare Sunday afternoon has just begun to be given to the Silver school- house station. Mr. Tait has been of the greatest help and comfort tome, and is entirely acceptable to the people. All those services are well attended. At the death of the Rev. S. S. AVood, I took charge of (he mission of Durham, and gave a service at Trinity church, Upjier Durham, once a fortnight, down to the 20th September, when the Ilev. J. F. Carr was ordained to the charge of that imjiortant mission. When I passed Durham to Mr. (.Vu-r's hands, I. opened the service at the Silver school -house. A combined teachers' meeting and Bible class for adults is held in Eichmond evejy Tuesday evening, which is fairly attended. There have been morning prayer and short lecture at St. A nn's on all the festivals ; and full service at all the stations on all the greater festivals. Even- ing ])ra_yer, with a course of lectures, on Wednesday evenings during last Lent in St. Ann's was well attended. St. John's church was ro])aired by the congregat ion last spring. Curtains for the windows, new hangings for tlu^ p\ilpit and reading- desk, and a beautiful and costly altar-cloth were provided by the young ladies. St. Ann's being much too small for the nun\ber of families who ougiit to attend it, the congregation have resolved to build a new church on a more convenient site in Eichmond, the progress of which I hope to report next year.

In others the sim]>le but I'aithlul point- ing out the duty and ])rivilege has overcome apparent \\\\- willirigncss. ]n one family ihercf are no less than ten sub- scribers, each one giving something. Could this principle bo brought to work generally, soon, very soon, a better and a more lively faith would s])iMng up towai-ds ihe cause of Christ, and His words Avould be better undcj-stood, " It is more blessed to give than to receive." This year, through the very willing and unremitting ex- ertions of Ji. roj)e, l'^s(|., of St. i'^'ancis, who most reailily promised his aid to supei-intend the iiniidiing the church build ing at Cumberland Mills, this editice, which is of stono. has almost been comjdeted. Many indeed were the ell'orts made befoi'e this k'indlyand most appropriate assistance was rendered, but all failed. The dam of the saw-mill was carried away no less than three times with the logs bought and bi-ought to it for sawing into plank and boards; this ])i"oving a double loss — los.; of the value of Iho logs and that of the mill to saw them ; contracts entered into and never ]>erf)rmed, in other cases woi-k done :iiid paid for, but obliged to I e doiui over again. Jn addition to the sii])cr- intending of the woi'k, this kind friend ])romised to i-aise .SlOO, so that there should be no hindrance to the completion of the work; and in Ihisgood cause giving freely himself. This addi- tional sum will be i'e(]uired. 'J'he contiactoi' repairing the roof found that it would j'ecjuiie to be wholly re-shingiecl in ilu^com- ing s})ring. If some kind friend to the cause ol' churches would make us a ])i'esent of sonu; paint, and othei's of a jiortion of oil, we could then comj)lete a work that has remained un- finished for twenty years, and whiidi was undertaken by the worthy and zealous churchman, the late Kd : Jlai'bottle. At my last visit to thissettlemenl J)ivi!!e Service was held in this building; they had provided a good supply of fire-wood and 63 a larifo stovo" had been i^ivcn to the church by that truly kind and liboi-al man Mr. Galbraith, of Quebec, which made it most comfortable, thoiin-h it was during a violent storm. The attendance was as good as could be expected under such circumstances. This little congregation is not wanting in attention in the house of Clod. Had timely notice been given, it would have afforded the missionary uo little pleasure to have administered the holy Communion at such a time. The service had proceeded as far as the ott'ei-tory when your missionary re[»resentcd to the congregation that uow, after a lapse of so many years, their church was at last finished and fit, as they s. "v for themselves, to hold Divine .Service in for their spiril;i;i H'aefit, and that of their dear children after them ; and ^ i o; every head of a family to make a free- will offering lo viod on the occasion, would be highly becom- ing of them, and that their heavenly Father would bo pleased to accept this feeling of gratitude. This was most willingly acceded to. But as tliey were jcenerally not prepared, written promises of one dollar for each head of a family were put into the plate with the money of those who had it with them. Q'here were thirteen men present and five absent, but it is sup- posed that the absentees will follow the example thus so wil- lingly set them by the majority of their brethren. The offer- ing was ]>resented, and I doubt not was accepted by vVlmighty God. Here 1 may say that one of our clergy beijig with mo on one occasion, said he had not seen so pooi* a congregation in an}' part of Caiuida. Your missionary visits the schools to which 3-our generous Board affords all the aid in your power. The conditions im- posed on these teachers and trustees that are thus assisted, are that their schools are opened with prayer, and closed with prayer — the prayers being the three first collects of morning an(i evening daily service with the Lord's Prayer ; the Holy Scri|)tures read morning and evening — due attention paid to the writing— occasionally a sum entered in a book — the Church catechism taught twice a week to all members of the Church and to any others wdiose parents might desire it. These condi- tions strictly enjoined and attended to by your missionary so far as his limited tuna permits. Special exarjiinations are held in the Scriptures and catechism. Writing in all the schools at my first visits was wretchedly done ; the books most unfit — the pa])er was no better — the Scrii)turcs were not read, nor the catechism taught. These things are now duly attended to. I have thus s])olven of the means used to obtain funds to carry out the noble designs of your Society — preaching — ad- 54 I ministering the iloly Sacraments and the education of youth. I may say a word of the blessed results of those means. An aged and beloved christian, for some 3'ears confined to her bed, and very fre(j[uently greatly aiHictetl with ])ain, bore it with much patience and resignation to her Father's will. Many indeed were licr thanks to your missionary i'or the visits paid to her — ever ready to hear the precious Word of God and to join heart and hands iii prayer to Almighty God. As often as covenient the Holy Sacrament was administered to her with as many of her children, both sons and daughters, as desired to attend ; this holy duty was most gladly re- ceived by iier, and at the close of each occasion she failed not to return her hearty thanks ibr these ])rivileges. It was at tho beginning of the year that her sj)irit was delivered from its earthly abode. An*l lier soul now, I (loul)t not, is in peace. Often did she sa_y she had no dependence on any person or thing but her Saviour. Total amount contributed to Church Society, $2 16.78. W. King. SAXDV BEACir. No great or stirring events, calculated (o fix the gaze and command the attention of the public, luive occurred in this mission during the past year, but I trust and believe that tho gentle yet all-conquering infiuences of the Spirit of holiness and power have not been withheld from us. A most ])l(.'asant feeling of unanimity and concord reigns amongst all classes of the congregation, and the mutual attachment of pastor and flock seems to be continually on the increase, lievercnt attention to the Word of (iod, and to the ortlinances of His House is the rule, and T have reason to ho])e that edification and growth in grace is the result. The ])ublic services of tho Ciiurch have been well attended, and lai'ge numbei's have been accustomed to ])resent themselves at tlie Lord's Table. A small mclodeon has been ])i-ocured for the church, at Avhich our school-teacher, Miss Lynch, presides, and the singing has thus greatly improved. My health having become impaired during the earlier months of the year, as soon as the summer set in 1 obtained leave of absence from the Bisho]), and ]-ecruited my cnei-gies by change of scene in travelling during eight Aveeks. While absent, the Rev. .1. i*. Jiichmond kindly undertook to keep up the Sunday services. 5o My health has been better since my return, and I liave at- tended to (ho usual duties of tlio mission Avithout ])iu(h'anco. Towards tlie close of tlie summer, the mission was visited by the Jiev.Mr. Lyster, as a de])utation from ihe Diocesan ]3oard, and notwitlistanding the very limited means of tlie people, the incj-eased assessment for -which they liave ])lc(]ged them- selves proves how excellent and creditable was the spirit with which they met the just demands of the 13oard. The failure on the part of the peojdo of Little (iaspo to pay their quota of assessment has obliged the Board to have the scrsnces discontinued in that portion of the mission. I trust that the congregation there, sensible of the loss they are sustaining, will soon comply Avith the reasonable requirements of the JJoai'd. And I am convinced that if the funds of the Diocesan Jioai-d enabled them to appoint a resident clergyman on that part of the coast, a prosperous mission might yet be established there. Our contributions to the fuiuls of the Church iSociety do not, I regret to say, ccpuU in amount those of former years. Our poverty and the multiplied calls upon us must bo our apology. 1. have forwarded to the treasurer the amount collected aii'l the list of names. I have had 12 baptisms, 2 marriages and 2 burials, during the ])ast year. The mission pai^^ ii 5G raised in some other diBtricls, where the financial position of the congregations ia vastly superior. Nor Avouid it ho just iv. speaking of this suhject, that the small and scattered con- gregati(^n at St. Catherines shoukl he passed over in silence. It is much to their credit, that although, from the necessity of the case, no more than one morning service in the month can be given to them, their subscriptions are fully in ])ropor- tion to their resources. The (piestion of raising an endowment i'und for this mission, has been occu})3'ing my attention for some time back ; the more so as the opportunity of forming one, of fair proportions at tlie outset, only waits to be seized. Provided the congre- gation will raise $200, R. Hamilton, Kstp. is ready to add another $200, ami on tlie payment of this, a churcliman in England, of whose friendly interest in the mission \ liave had occasion before to record many substantial tokens. Avill increase the fund to 8800. The usua'l grant of the Church Society to endowments is 6150, and assistance from the .S. L'. (I. may reasonably be expected to the extent of S1')0 jnore. Thus, at its very commencement, the fund would amount to 61100, all depentlent uj)on tlie ])eople raising the fii-st 6200. 1 made an attempt in the summer to induce them to look at the matter in its proper light, and consent to make this saci-itice once for all and reap its pei-manenl iK-ncHts, but without success. An entirely new thing like this litis to be well ventilated before practical steps are taken, and I have no doubt that, owing to the want of full, clear and sutlicient explanations on my i)art, misa[)prehensl()ns may have arisen among many, as to some one or more points connected with the subject. A more thorough effort which 1 ])r(»pose. umlei' J)ivine favour, soon to make, will. I trust, result in a nearer a]>))roach to the object in view. In my next repoi't 1 ho])e to be able to an- nounce that the name of this mission is to be found in the list of those having permanent endowments. Another want which must soon be sui)[)lied is a new parson- age ; the l)uilding now known by that name is becoming more and more unlit to live in. Four yeai's ago over $100 were expended in patching it up, but the benefits it then derived from the repairs eft'ected have passe(l away. To spend more money in tlie same way w'ould be mere waste. My friends in (Quebec may therefore exjiect me to call upon them before long. Shortly before Christmas of ISlJT five stained windows (the gift of the churchman in England above referred to) were put u]) in the church, so that the whole edifice, even to the porcli W.ndows, is now lighted in this manner.

In the fall, at the solicitation of the friends of the Church in Magog, I commenced a week night service there once a week, which, with the exception of a few stormy evenings, has been well attended, Avith every jjrospect of a large increase when the arrangements for the settlement of a clergyman in that rising village liave been completed. Our services in Cleorgeville and on the Lak'e Shore, arc attended by devout and attentive congi-egations, who, I earnestly pray, may be increasingly appreciative of tlie efforts now made to give them the blessings and sacraments resulting from their connection with the true Church of our Lord Jesus Christ. My time is fully occnpieil, having three sei-vices on tho Sunday, and three during the week, besides riding considera- ble distances to attend them. These, in addition to parish visiting, Sunday-school and a very interesting Bible class on the Lake Shore road, aj-e sullicient employment for one clergyman. Our prospective connection with the Diocesan Board has already exercised a beneticial iiiHuence on the mission, and I trust that our I'uture will bo abundantly blessed by ilim AVho can make the little one become a thousand, and the small one a strong nation.

Of the sum ex)»ended, the people have contributed about four hundred dollars: the rest has been raised by outside subscriptions (chiefly in Quebec and Montreal,) with the excejitioii of a grant of one liundrcd and fifty dollars made by the (,'hurch Society. A stable has also been erected at a cost of two hundred and ten dollars, and is not yet paid for.
