A population, esti- mated at 25,000, which may generally be described with truth as poverty-stricken, scattered, in small communities, here a few and there a few, over an enormous extent of country, cannot reasonably be expected to be able to provide itself with the ordinances of religion, even with the most strenuous and self-denying eflforts. The same cause which weakens its resources, creates a demand for an increased number of Clergy and Churches, far beyond the pro- portion ordinarily assumed to suffice. It is not to be regarded, therefore, as a matter of surprise if the progress of the Church in such a Diocese, so far as the means for the permanent establishment of religion are concerned, should not seem to be so rapid as may be desired, or as may be seen in more favored Dioceses. Yet, though it is but just that this point should never be lost sight of, ' it is a matter of thankfulness that our progress, if gradual, seems at least to be steady. The actual income of the Church Society oannot be regarded as affording a true test of our progress, because ILd demands for independent local exertions, which are not com- prehended within the sphere of its operations, increase from year to year. The Central Board trust, however, that when the oironm- stanoes which have been mentioned are taken into account, the report which they have now to render will shew that their efforts have not been destitute of tokens of the Divine blessing. The objects for which the Society is incorporated are divided under five distinct heads, and the Central Board are thankful to be enabled to state that during the past year something has been accomplished in each of these departments of labor. It may be well to state them in the order in which they stand in the Constitution of the Society : — 8 I. Mi«loiuu7 Lftbor. Daring the year the Society hu employed six Miadonaries. In addition to the Miadona of Danville, Hopetown, and Malbaie, mentioned in the laat Report as having been opened under its anspioes, a fourth was formed, in immediate connection with it, in July last, comprising the townships of Hereford, Barford, and Olifton, in the district of St. Francis. The way had been prepared for the establishment of this Mission by the visits, during several years past, of the Society's Travelling Missionary, or, during vacancies in that office, of neighboring Clergymen, whose expenses the Society defrayed. Whatever fruits, therefore, may, by the grace of God, be jwoduced in this Mission, will be solely the result of this Society's operations, which, in this case, has not entered into other men's labors. The Rev. J. P. Richmond, who, for some ^e previously to his ordination, had labored as a Lay Reader in the county of Megantic, has been appointed to this Mission, and the extracts from his journal, which will be published with this Report, will serve to shew that there are sufficient grounds for encouragement in this field. The same may be said of the reports fttmi the ether three Missions mentioned above. In addition to these appointments, the services of the Rev. A. A. Allen were secured, in May last, as Travelling Missionary, his head- quarters being, as usual during the summer season, at the Quaran- tine Station. Mr. Allen has fiimished the Board with a very interesting journal of his labors at Grosse Isle, as well as at different destitute settlements which he visited within the district of Quebec. In October he accepted another appointment, and the Society is therefore again left without the services of a Travelling Missionary. This deficiency, however, is, to some extent, supplied by the Rev. L. 0. Wuitele, who, being engaged in tuition at lienuozville, is enabled to devote his Sundays to missionary work. For a few weeks he was on the footing of a Travelling Missionary in the St. Francis district ; but, mnoe his establishment at Lennoxville, he has served, on three Sundays in the month, the settlements of Ely, Brompton, Durham Station, Windsor, and Hardwood Hill, to the north of Sherbrooke. For these places the Board are thankful to be able to state that there is a prospect of the speedy appointment . • r «)» ) ( •* If w «« • '« » « 9 18 > » " i •• «t* ) ( it V W «« •- « » • of a Missionary who shall give his whole time to the worL Pre- yiously to the appointment of Mr. Richmond to Hereford, &o., Mr. Wurtele had visited those places also, under an arrangement with the Board, by which he gave all his Sundays to the work. The Board have also continued during the year the arrangement mentioned in the laHt Report for providing a monthly service at Qeorgeville and the Outlet, besides contributing towards the main- tenance of the three Missions, supported principally by the Society for the Propagation of the Gospel, of Frampton, Stoneham, and Inverness. From all these places returns have been received, of which some extracts will be published with this Report. The Missionary department of the Society embraces, together with direct provision for Missionary labor, " the creation of a fund towards augmenting the stipends of Clergymen " ; and this, which has unhappily become one of the most crying wants of the Diocese, has received the earnest consideration of the Board. In July last, the sum of $500 remaining unexpended from the amount of a vote for Missionary purposes, was appropriated to meet a donation of a similar sum from the Bishop of the Diocese, towards increasing, for the current year, the stipends of fourteen Clergymen which fell below £100 sterling, independently of local contributions. Six Clergymen received 9100, and eight Clergymen $50 each. The Board renewed also, for the year, the Scheme agreed upon in 1859, under which it was hoped that the oongr^ations of the different Missions might enable their pastors to receive the Society's speoiid grant of £10 in aid of stipend ; and though this plan has not been generally so successful as it was trusted would be the case, yet the number of Clergymen who have benefited by it is greater than in last year. It is but fair to state that this scheme was submitted to the judgment of the Clergy and Churchwardens of the Diocese, and that not a single objection was offered to it, before the time fixed for its taking effect, while, on the other hand, expressions of approval were received even from localities where it was afterwards found impossible to comply with its terms. The attention of the Board has also been directed to the desira- bleness of making a special effort to raise the stipends of tSX the Clergy to a minimum of $600 per annum; and a return having 10 been fornishecl, at tibeir request, by the Lord Bishop, shewing that there are twenty-one Missionaries in the Diocese whose incomes fall below that cmount, and that a sum of about $1800 per annum would be required to bring them up to it, the Board appointed a Committee to consider and report (which they are to da to-morrow) upon the best means to be adopted for carrying out this object. Its attainment is rendered more easy from his Lordship's having himself offered to contribute one-fourth of the required sum, on condition that the other three-fourths are raised by the Society. It is probable that, in exact accordance with the terms of the Consti- tution, a special fiind will be immediately opened for this purpose. The absolute necessity of improving the condition of the Clergy actually laboring within the Diocese has been long felt to be an obstacle in the way of tresh undertakings, either for the extension of the Missionary operations of the Society, or for perpetuating the blessings of Religion by means of Endowments. This last-men- tioned object, which is specially provided for in the fifth article of the Constitution, but which it may be more convenient to notice in this place, was brought prominently before the Society at its last anniversary. The subject received the earnest consideration of the Board, and after it had been fully discussed, it was resolved that a deputation should be appointed to visit the different Missions in the Diocese, with the view of bringing it specially be£bre the people ; but " that instructions should be given to the deputation to give their first and prominent exertions to augment the salaries of the local Clergy to £150 per annum, and, secondly, to endeavor to create endowments, wherever practicable." No deputation has as yet been appointed, but a proposal for engaging the services of a Clergyman who shall give his whole time to the v/ork of the Society, and systematically visit all the Missions, :s at present under the consideration of the Board. With reference to this sub- ject, the Board also adopted a Resolution, that it was desirable to send a deputation to England, for the purpose of bringing the peculiar claims of this Diocese before the members of the Church at large. In the meanwhile, although no progress has been made towards the formation of a general Endowment Fund for the Diocese, it is satisfactory to know that special efforts have been ^ » # %, m \ 1. 11 at efl ^ . * f » # saccessfully made within the year, on a considerable scale, for pro- curing Endowments for the Cathedral Ohurch, and three of the Chapels within the parish of Quebec, independently of the Fund for that object, noticed in former reports, with the management <^ which the Society is entrusted. The Board have also been engaged with the consideration of a plan for making provision for the Widows and Orphans of the Clergy, by means of a general scheme of Life Insurance. But nothing has as yet been matured on this point, sufficient time not having been ^ven for procuring all the information on which the necessary calculations must be based. The existing Fund, however, continues in a flourishing condition, and it is a matter of thank- fulness that there has been no increase in the demands upon it. It has received some additions during the year from the proceeds of sermons, which, however, have created, as the Board regret to observe, a diminution in the Mission Fund, one object having in most instances been substituted for the other; whereas, by the resolution of the Board of last year, the Lord Bishop was requested to recommend the Clergy to preach an annual sermon for the Widows' and Orphans' Fund, in addition to that already estab- lished/or the Mission Fund. It will be difficult for the Society to meet its engagements in this last-mentioned department without the aid of annual collections throughout the Diocese. II. The second object of the Society's incorporation is, " the encouragement of Education, and the support of day schools and Sunday schools in the Diocese, in conformity with the principles of the Church,!' towards the accomplishment of which the Board have granted aid to schools at Portneuf, Bourg-Louis, Bury, Standon, Yalcartier, and Lake Beauport ; and in order to secure, as far cs possible, a judicious expenditure of their grants, a form of return has been prepared, which must be filled up by all appli- cants for aid, shewing ihe state and progress of each school. A Special Committee on Education has also been appointed, whose duty it is to examine such returns, end provision has been made for Ihe inspection of all schools receiving aid from the Society. The Board have continued the grant of £50 per annum towards the education of the sons of Cleigymon at the grammar school al 12 Lennoz^e, Ike number on the list being now fbll. By means of ibis grant, the third object of the Constitution, viz., " assutanoe, where it may be necessary, to those who may be preparing for the ministry of the Oospel," has also, in one instance, been provided for— one of the recipients being of a soffioient age to be r^arded as a candidate for Holy Orders. IV. The Depository Committee exhibits a return of Bibles sold, 63 ; ditto, ^ven gratuitously, 12 ; Testaments, sold, 43 ; given, 12 ; Prayer Books, 193 ; given gratuitously, or for sale at reduced prices, 105. Other Books sold, 140 ; Tracts, value $9.80 j Books and Tracts given away to ibe value of $31. Total amount of snles, $283. 13. The usefulness of this department migbt be much increased if it were in the power of the Board to make a larger appropriation for its objects — its only resources to meet free grants, and sales at reduced prices, being the annual vote of $100, and the proceeds of an annual sermon in the Cathedral. A varied selection of very interesting works has been imported during the year. y . The Board have made grants to the following Churches and Parsonages : — Churches: East Frampton $60 Lambie's Mills 20 New Liverpool 60 Standon 100 Gould 70 Pabsonaoes: Compton 60 Point Levi 100 Inverness — a grant of £25, made in 1855, renewed 100 The Board are called upon to report a change in the office of Treasurer, the resignation of which, by Henry S. Scott, Esq., in January last, was a subject of strong and universal r^ret. At the last annual meeting for the transaction of business, the Society placed on record the expression of its sense of Mr. Scott's un- wearied exertions in its cause, and requested him to accept office as a Vice-President. The Board were fortunate enough to secure the services, as snocessor to Mr. Scott, of H. N. Jones, Esq., who t ? if m at of ^ of in ;he in- ice ire ho t ? 13 has already earned the gratitude of the Soeiety by the kindness and e£Biciency with which he has discharged the duties of his office. The Secretary of the Society, having been disabled by a serious illness, applied to the Board for leave of absence till July next, which was readily granted, provision having been made by him for the performance of his duties. Dr. Percy, being one of the Clergy who have claims on the Clergy Trust Fund, proposed to the Board an arrangement by which that fund might be relieved from all farther charge on his account, and he himself enabled to take up his permanent residence in a more favorable climate. The Board, however, felt that it was not competent to them to entertain this proposal, which was accordingly brought before a special meeting of the Society, and finally agreed to, in October last, to take effect on Dr. Percy's resigning his appointments in the Diocese. Before proceeding to state the amount of the Society's income during the past year, the Board would again advert to the fact that a large amount is annually raised for Church purposes within the Diocese, independently of direct contributions to the Society. Two undertakings in particular (besides the appeds for endowments already mentioned) have been prominently brought forward during the past year, which demanded and received support on an un- usually large scale. A proposed change in the Bye-Laws is under the consideration of the Society, which, if adopted, will have the effect of making many contributions for local purposes pass through the hands of the Society. The Income for the year, including interest on invested funds, is as follows : — Generftl Fund $2613.44 Mission Fund 1704.09 Widows' and Orphans' Fund 1499.97 Depository Fund 370.79 Total $6188.29 being an increase on the amount reported last year of $1040*57. ■ jj.

I AM happy in being able to state that, during the past year, the MiMion has progressed satisfactorily : the nnmber of oommanioants has increased, and the congregations hare been larger, and attention and reverence are manifested more and more on the part of the worshippers. Divine Service has been held regularly at Danville and Tingwicky and also in other parts of the Mission. « « * « « The building of the Church has gone on but slowly, yet I ought not to complain when I compare the work with what is done in other much older Missions. During a recent tour through a few of the Cities of the United States, I was received mot>t heartily ; much sympathy was shown towards the Canadian Church, and very many aided in a substantial manner the good cause I had in hand : repeated invitations were given to come again on the cessation of their present political crisis. I shall, howerer, (D.Y.) speak more fully of this subject in a future Report upon the Church in this charge. We expect, if all things go on steadily, to make use of our Cuarch in the early spring. The subscriptions to the Diocesan Church Society are of course Tory small, and I do not anticipate any great' increase until we have paid our present debts ; however, I trust our small offering will be received in earnest of belter things to come. 1 must, while speaking of money matters, in justice to the Danville part of the Mission, say that a greater willingness has of late been shown towards supporting their Missionary : but I feel convinced that, as long as the present arrangements exist, those Missionaries will suffer who are dependent ■pon their People for support. M. MONKHOUSE FOTHERGILL^ Incumbent of Danville and parti adjacent. r »> r f \ V ■.V I . 1 . 91 REPORT OF THE MISSION OF HOPETOWN. I hare little to add to my Report of last year with reference to thia Mimion. The pragroM obsemble in a single year in a place like thin, where the population is small and scattered, must necessarily be slight { and though the process of sowing may be continually going on, that of reaping must be patiently waited for till it please the great Hus- bandman to giro the increase. I am thankful, however, to be able to report that whateyer progress may have been made, no ground at least has been lost. The congregations at Shigonac and Port Daniel have decidedly increased, and the attendance at all the three stations is on the whole regular and satisfactory. The Church at Port Daniel has been boarded in and the roof shingled, and we hope to be able to hold services in it early in the ensuing summer. At Shigouac we have a prospect of getting a Church, as a site has been promised by a member of the congregation, and some of the people have declared their intention of contributing towards the building. There have been within the Mission, since the first day of Januaiyi 1860, 31 baptisms, 9 marriages, and 3 burials. Within the same time there have been ninety-one full services at the various stations. WILLIAM GORE LYSTER. MALBAIE— 1860. There have been in the Mission of Malbaie, during the year, 16 baptisms, 2 marriages, and 6 burials. I have visited Comer-of*the-Beaoh twice a month in winter, and once monthly during summer. Services in French are held at Malbaie every other Sonday afternoon, while those in English have t)een invariably held in the morning. But I intend now to visit Comer-of-the-Beach but once a month in winter, as they can attend the Malbaie services as well as others, and to give my other spare Sabbath afternoon to an interesting part of the Mission, who, from the long distance, their poverty, and want of horses, are precluded from attending the parish Church. I refer to the people living up the River of Barachoir. A few Norwegian fiunilies have lately come down to settle in the neighbonr- bood, and formed the nucleus of a settlement they intend to call ATew Norvny. 1 held theie a terrioe lut September, and the men with their agent attended, and I expreeeed to the latter my willingneM to do what I oould for them. Mr. Closter haa lately gone to Norway, and expects to be baolc in the spring with other families. These Norwegians are highly pleased with the country, and the people here •re kind to them. If they are not to be supplied with their own teachers, this is an opening we can hardly refuse to enter. My new eongregation is well attended by other Protestants of that settlement, and I hope to gain their hearts to our serrioes and Church. A Dissenting Minister visits this people, but cannot penetrate back in the woods, as his time is limited. And taking all this trouble for their sakes, I hope they will appreciate my senrices, and as thoy are obliged to come to me for other services of the Church, that they will' help ns, and constitute themselvea attached as well as useful members of the Church. My people have exerted themselves to their utmost to pay the amount they were pledged to subscribe for a resident Clergyman, and fulfilled other requirements, to entitle me to the gratuity. The summer has been severe, and the fiiAdag scanty, and when the situation of the Mission is taken int<»*iiiQifourt, and the back- wardness of many who receive my services', without materially help- ing our Mission, I take tiiis as a hopeful sign of yet still greater efforts that shall be required from, and made by, those who truly appreciate the services rendered to them by the Society, as well as love the Lord Jesus in sincerity. « « « « And I trust, with God's help, and strength gmnted me, that I shall, with increased zeal, warn the wicked, console the mourner, and encourage the Christian to still greater activity in the ranks of the Redeemer. JOSEPH DF MOUtLFIED. Ftoint Peter, 90th Dec, 1860. \ 4) .^ MISSION OF BAKFORD AND PARTS ADJACENT. During the course of the last week in July, acting upon the instruc- tions I received from the Lord Bishop, I left the Mission of New Ireland and proceeded to the Township of Barford. This district has been occasionally visited during the last five years by the neigh- bouring Clergymen, and by the Travelling Missionary. The town- f \ >- ts te le ) h 1, it ^ .4^ .i 28 •bip if in • flourifhing tt&te and well-Mttledt there bt;;ig at the present time upwardK of 90 families residing in it. I held Divine Service in this settlement every other Sundeyi dividing my time between the two districts in which Missionary operations had been commenced at different periods before my arrival, fn the first of these districts, Oaniei's School-housoi I have had an average congregation of twenty-seven persons; in the second, Drew'f Mills, the congregation averages thirty-three. The former place ia within a mile and a half of the Boundary Line between Canada and the United States; the latter is within five miles of Coaticookf so that both oxtremilies ot the township are within ooavenieut dis- tances of the places in which Divine Service is held. There is a Sunday School in the Daniel's sohoolhousa every Lord** Day ; it is conducted by Mr. Ward's family. I have been unable to see as much of its working as I could wish, owing to its being held at the same hour as my service at Drew's Mills. Although the attendance at Public Worship and at the Sunday School has been good, I regret to state that I am unable to report very favorably of the opening for the Church in this Township : there being, as far as I can judge, only eleven families favorably disposed towards the Episcopalian mode of conducting Divine Worship. * * ***** The majority of the people are Calvinistio Baptists, and strongly opposed to our Prayer Book. I am obliged to make use of the school houses used by this denomination, and onoa or twice I have experienced great inconvenience. The total number of services held in this Township up to the pre* sent date is twenty ; the congregations have fallen off a little lately, owing to the excitement consequent upon a religious revival among the Baptists. HSRSrORD. This Township is distant from Ooaticook fifteen miles: it is divided into two settlements called respectively Hall's Stream, and Leat Stream. On my arrival in the Township, I at first divided my time between the two settlements, but, after one or two visits, I found that my services at Hall'b Stream were not wanted, there being only one Churchman in that settlement, and the people being supplied with regular preaching. When this state of feeling was made known to me, I determined for the present to give my whole time on the Sunday to Leat Stream settlement, and here, I am thankful to say, a very lively interest is matiifested in Church matters. Both young and old are anxious to be instructed. The attendance at Ian 24 <• f Divine Service is always good, and the responses in the liturgy are always hearty. The periodical visits of the Missionary are always looked forward to with pleasare^ and he is sure, on his arrival, to find a welcome to the houses of the inhabitants. The Sunday School is a source of great satisfaction as indicative of the general feeling of the Mission. I make a point of catechizing the children between morning and evening service : the elder members of the congregation always remain, and it is quite interesting to see the eagerness with which they attend to all the questions and answers. The inhabitants are anxious to build a suitable house for God's service, and, although no one in the Township is wealthy^ one person has liberally promised to contribute the sum of $200. I think that about $500 may be raised in the settlement ; and I would earnestly commend this Mission to the attention of the Society, as deserving whatever aid they may be pleased to bestow. I have visited the settlement six times : the average congregation has been nearly thirty. A new settlement has been commenced in another portion of this Township, but, as the settlers are, for the most part, wintering out of the settlement, I have not been into it yet. I hope, however, to Tisit the place as soon as it is possible to get into it, which will be during the course of next month, as the people have commenced to elear a road. KAST OUrTON. This portion of the Township of Clifton is the only one in "(diich there is an opening for the Church. In West Clifton, which lies adjacent to Compton, the people are either Baptists or Roman Catho- lics. The Eastern portion of the Township is divided from the Western by six miles of unbroken forest. It is approachable from Eaton Corner, being situated nine miles beyond Eaton Village, and twenty-seven miles from Compton, and thirty-nine miles from Drew's Mills or Barford. The settlement is new — there are four Church families in the place, but the congregations are always good. A greater number of people were formerly Episcopalians, but, not hav- ing been visited for three years by a Clergyman of their own denomi- nation, they have joined themselves to the Methodists. I have visited this settlement three times, and held service six times— the average congregation being twenty-four. Prayer Books and Tracts are much wanted in this and the other •ettlements under my charge.* * ThcM h«T« been line* rappliod from tha Depotltorr. f ) ) ( «f/ s ■\ > 25 Daring the months of September and Octobeti I visited the Memphra- mag(^ Lake district twice, and held service thwe times. The congregations were good, and the inhabitants of Georgeville expressed a desire for more frequent visits from a Clergyman, and a willingness to contribute something towards defraying the expenses of his ser- vices. JOHN P. RICHMOND, Missionary. 31st December, 1860. REV. A. ALLEN'S MISSIONARY JOURNAL. f } DISTRICT or QUEBEC — 1860. ^ ( /I ^ • • • . * • * May 23r(f— reached Grosse Isle, and found one Protestant patient, admitted a few days before, ill with the confluent small-pox. He is an intelligent Highland Scotch- man, who appears heartily to welcome the consoling visits of the Clergyman. Two other Protectant cases have since been admitted. They are from Pomerania. Communication can be had with them only by signs and occasional words. Knelt down and prayed for them ; at which they seemed deeply affected, sobs and sighs pro- ceeding from them. ! how keenly on Whitsunday did I feel the need of the gift of tongues, while attempting to converse with these dear afflicted " strangers in a strange land.*' I visit the Hospitals daily ; and on Sunday last began with morning and evening service, at the hours of 11 a. m. and 3^ p.m. There is a mutual pleasure in meeting " the old familiar faces" of the estab- lishment. May the Lord bless our little company with " righteous- ness, and peace, and joy in the Holy Ghost,"— that we may prove ourselves blessings unto others. Amen. MayBlst.—Whsit little things stir up the fount of feeling within us ! To-day found a child in Hospital, whose card bore the mark of *' intermittent fever," faithfully and kindly tended by its Protestant Norwegian parents, who were quite well. After a little intercourse with them by signs, &c., feeling for their afflicted state— with faith in the power of prayer, through Jesus, I knelt down and offered a. short prayer for their child. On rising, — with much emotion, the father of the child extended to me his hand, and shook mine warmly and affectionately, speaking mora than words with his eyes, for this 26 manifestation of Christian sympathy. May God indeed restore their child. Amen. * The Tpoor Scotch sailor — who still manifests much interest in reli- gious instruction and in prayer— expressed a desire to-day to be well in time to rejoin his tnhip on the homeward-bound voyage to Scotland, where he has a mother and sister living. This may be the good will of God, as he is getting better under the skilful attendance of his kind physicians. The Pomeranian told me, with glee: ''Queebeo — Mondaye!*' Meaning that he was to be sent to Quebec on Monday next. Sunday f June 3rd. — Buried the poor afflicted Norwegian's child, referred to above. June 4th. — Out of a vessel of 360 Norwegians, six only have come ashore sick. Their friends are admitted to the Hospitals. Exceed- ingly depressing it is not to be able to converse with these people, but by signs and occasional words. However, we get on surprisingly, even in this way. Fray for them— though it be without their under- standing—for which they are grateful. Conversed with those who go into Hospital under the term " convalescent," about their books. A great deal in their prayer-book similar to ours. Directed them to read and pray with their sick. * June llth, — ^More sick admitted into Hospital yesterday. This evening buried a Norwegian child. Was pleased with a circum- stance that happened to-day, tending to show how much a Pastor's sympathy is appreciated — though all verbal communication be in <'an unknown tongue." A German woman, from the first ward of No. 2, Hospital, had been removed, for her comfort, to the extreme end of the second ward, where she kept on making signs with her arm for me to go to her, until convinced that I saw and recognized her. This little manifestation affected me much, and encourages me to go on in the name of the Lord, trying to do them what little good lean. ******** Seeing Mr. Belts' name favourably mentioned by some of the Clergy, in their reports, referring to that gentleman as taking a worthy interest in Church affairs, I wrote to him, and found that he had left L'Islet a year or more ago for Europe ! So I intend to go and see for myself what can be done, as the patients do not now require so much attention. • • • ♦ • June 2lst. — A Norwegian brig is landing her 250 passengers, &c., to-day, to underg<) a thorough cleansing. Eleven small-pox cuses I ♦ t » i^ 27 f ■» i^ admitted to Hospital. We were just congratalatinf; ourselves upon a <^ clearance'' of the loathsome disease — but a litUe too soon. My position here becomes more bnd more distressing. A Norwegian pastor in my place would be of great service just now in doing these poor people good. Alas ! truly " in the midst of life we are in death." A young man— one of the emigrants— was drowned this afternoon while bath- ing. The Medical Superintendent had warned the captain of the danger incurred. What a gloom does this cast over all. This is a solemn sermon. O may all listen to its trumpet-sound : " Prepare to meet thy God ! " June 22nd. — Buried the young Norwegian to-day. Twenty years of age. His brother — a fine blue-eyed young man, twenty-four years of age — was the only relative to follow him to the '^rave. How sad that these two brothers should be thus suddenly separated after pass- ing through all the dangers of the deep and of sickness. — "My thoughts are not your thoughts, neither are your ways my ways, saith the Lord," unto us mortals. Before the funeral — went round among the "healthy-end" emi- grants, and conversed with them as best I could, by signs and words, directing their thoughts upwards unto God. Poor things ! What a look and smile of intelligence 'greeted me whenever the idea was caught. They crowded around me repeatedly — men, women and children — when once and again I looked into their prayer-books and shewed them my own. It is easy to point out in places the simi- larity, when they appear exceedingly gratified. Met the men again at the f u neral. Shook hands with the afflicted brother of the departed one, and pointed him upwards to " the God of all comfort." At the close of the English burial service, they sang one of their funeral psalms, by request, and then raised their prayer-books, or hands, to their foreheads, and offered a short, silent prayer. The whole scene was afiecting — and the afflicted brother seemed grateful. While still in the grave-yard, one man fainted — and no wonder, for the heat has been intense to-day. Three more oases of sniall-pox admitted to-day, from the landed emigrants. Invited the Norwegians (through the R. C. Interpreter) to Church on Sunday morning, giving them at the same time to understand that the service will be in English. They are to have the privilege of singing their own psalms twice during the service. This invitation to the House of God I deemed it my duty to give, out of consideration 28 . ,« (( un- for their feelings— though ''my understanding" may prove fruitful" to them. Jtftie 23rd.— More small-poz oases admitted into Hospital to-day from among the '< Healthy-end" emigrants. Sunday, June ^th. — Had a crowded Church. The Norwegians sang three times. Their singing is very good and pleasing. Had no sermon. It is contrary to the ** Regulations" for the residents to congregate (unofficially, I believe,) with the emigrants— but the responses were made by the two medical gentlemen present. These, the Hospital steward, sergeant of police, and a Protestant from '< Isle Beaux,' formed the English portion of the congregation. The Nor- wegians behaved quietly and reverently throughout the service. After service, they awaited the Pastor's exit from the Church in a crowded circle outside. Here I was greeted with smiles and saluta- tions, in grateful return for the attention bestowed. As well as I could, I made them understand (after the above demonstration on their part) how very sorry I was not to be able to preach unto them ** the Gospel." Complimented them upon their singing, and directed them to read and to pray for themselves. This afternoon they were not admitted into the Church — the service being for residents only ; but numbers of them loitered around the building listening. During Divine Service this morning, the dismal coach for the sick took more cases to the Hospitals. Another death from the loathsome disease. The child was buried this evening. The poor afflicted mother her- self (after the Minister had concluded) threw earth upon the coffin, three times, with her own hand. * # ♦ * June ftJth, — Buried the only child of a young couple. Poor afflicted mother ! how she did weep. Pointed her upwards to " the God of all comfort." As I was returning homewards, saw two Nor- wegian sisters occupied with their prayer-book, and singing unto God. ♦♦*##*♦• Tuesday, July nth.—Oa Saturday last we all met with a truly acceptable surprise in the appearance at the Island of our venerable and beloved Diocesan. On Sunday our spirits were very much re- freshed. The Bishop took the Ante-Communion Service, and kindly preached to us at both morning and evening praysr. What a casting about of thoughts do certain remarks from such an aged and well- worn servant of Christ create within one. As for example, when he spoke of this passing vapour of life (James iv. 14)— of death itself; when this body of ours, so ** fearfully and wonderfully made," is laid in the grave, and becomes food for worms, &c., &c. In the . :» '- i 39 evening he visited the Hospitals and officiated, and also expounded scripture, and prayed with the Hospital steward and his family* May God's blessing rest upon the ministrations of this day. July 20fA.— Went to Crane Island, and ministered to the two families there. Dr. Douglas also went over. Found the Lady Seigneuresses quite well, and kind as ever. They seemed very much gratified at our visit, and so did their worthy farmer, Churchy and his family. They had the promise of a future one. .' --i L'IsLBT, Aih August.— VWei is a charming little village. So neat, so well built, — in short, everything about it has quite an air o£ respectability. Found here but one Protestant family, viz., Mrs. Widow HarroWer, Mrs. Widow Anderson her daughter, and her son, Mr. narrower. They are weary of their isolated state, and purpose going to some more congenial spot. The Missionary received from them a most gracious welcome. In the afternoon I walked to <'J 81 If >; Wednesday, September 6 subscribed as follows :— HaI HaI Bat.— Robert Blair $5.00 ** Md. Hamilton 4.00 M Alexander Morton 1.60 « Samuel Sloane 1.60 $12.00 By order from CHioounMi 20.00 $32.00 7\tesdayt \Bth September.— Sent word, by letter, to St. Thomas, this morning, that, if found convenient and agreeable to the people) I should try to be over on Saturday next, in order to hold services in their midst on Sunday. Received a reply this evening. No appointment has been made^ and no encouragement given to go over. ^ Christi and in this, as in other respects, have shown a spirit v /by of imitation by other portions of the Mission. I append some statistica, which will give some idea of the general state uf the Mission. Extent, 250 square miles. Churches, 4. Fami.ies, 130. Church members, 7S0. Services during the year, 193. Communicants, 132. Communion administered 24 times. Public Catechizing, 25 times. Pastoral visits, 327. Contributions, £73 6s., divided thus— towards my salary, £40 ; Church Society, £10 ; Offertory, £12; Produce and work, to enable me to secure the Church Society's grant, £11 6a. This does not include the materials, &o., contributed by the Standoa people towards the building of the Church. J. H. JENKINS, Missionary. . \ (J STONEHAM ANU LAKE BEAUPORT. I have little of particular interest to communicate to the Society ia reference to my labors for the six months past During the summer Divine Service has been celebrated at Stone- ham and Lake Beauport on the same Sunday — now but once a fort- night at each of these places. This arrangement, however, gives me an opportunity of reviving our Sunday School at Stonekam. The congregations in both Churches are good, for the number of Protestants who still remain about us ;— there is an earnest interest manifested by many in the preaching of the Gospel, and the pros- perity of our beloved Church ; and all have endeavored to render my stay as agreeable as their circumstances permit. Under these somewhat encouraging circumstances, you will no doubt expect an explanation of the fact, that this year We forward nothing in aid of the funds of the Society. Owing to extensive emi- «rration, which still continues— or rather is greatly on the inoreafie— our congregations are very much smaller than twelve years since* The consequence, of course, is that our pew-rents have diminished^ and the two Missions are daily becoming less able to bear the burden which the Society has laid upon them. • • • « • 38 The day-flcbools at Stoneham and Lake Beaaport — reBpectively nnder the charge of Mr. Maomurray and Mr. Himsworth (the latter paid in part by the Churoh Society)— are doing well, and, from personal obvenration, I hare reason to think that both parents and scholars have great cause to be thankfal for the advantages which they enjoy. JAMES W. JONES, Missionary of Stoneham and Lake Beauport. Deo. 15th, 18G0. REPORT OF THE MISSION OF LOWER INVERNESS. ' There is not much to report from this Mission at present. The congregation at the Churoh is steady and satisfactory ; while that of the out-station, where service is held to supply the wants of Nelson and part of Inverness, across the river, is very fluctuating. The outward behaviour of the people is, on the \dioTe, respectfu), and on occasions of solemnity most proper, and I hope there is some improvement generally ; but as yet they do not seem to give evi- dence of being impressed with' the necessity oS supporting their Church by a devotion, to the support of the Gospel, of a perceptibU portion of their income. With pain to myself, I have spoken plainly and sharply on this subject, and I think with some effect ; for lately there has been exhibited a greater liberality, and a sign of still further improvement. There is at least now a little leaven at work : the generous gift of Messrs. Lloyd & Clapham, of 60 acres of ground, has been taken advantage of— a Parsonage is commenced, and an interest in its progress is certainly growing up among the people at large. The number of baptisms, during the past year, is 8 j, of marriages^ 1; andof burials, 4. A great difficulty is experienced, also, in getting the women to be churohed ; yet the prejudice against this is growing leas, and I hope to be able to notice the neglect of this custom as more rare than the observance. At Lambie's Mills the congregation are bestirring themselves to get the Churoh feated, and, with the grant of £5 from your Society, this object will. I hope, soon be accomplished. There is still much, very much, to do— the Churoh, consisting merely I o 89 of four walls, having no interior arrangements : the Holy mysteries of oar religion are celebrated out of domestic utensils, and Holy baptism is administered out of a sugar-bowl ; yet I hope in time we shall do it, but we require help. All our wants come at once ; and as the burden falls on a few, I have to encourage them much, and urge them not to be " weary in well-doing.'' I have not the means at hand now to enable me to reckon up the good works* of this congregation, but it amounts to something con- siderable for people who are struggling themselves j yet I pray they may show still more and equally praiseworthy evidences of the leaven, which, as fiur as human eyes can see, is in them.

The Clergy Trust Committee b^ leave to report — The Interest from the different inyestments has been r^ularly paid, and the seyeral Endowments under their charge have steadily increased. During the past year the following investments have been made: — Clergy Trust Fund, including the Endowments under their charge $ 3200 Bishopric Endowment 21800 A larger sum than usual seems to have been invested on account of the Bishopric Endowment, owing to ia number of Debentures having been paid off during the year. Your Committee aJso report, that ail the instalments of the Quebec Chapel Endowment ^rill become due in the course of this year, a large amount of which hi\a been paid. At the next Annual Meeting your Committee hope to report that the whole amount subscribed has been paid up. All which is respectfully submitted. a. J. QUEBEC, Chairman. B. G.
