Mr. Jones is therefore precluded from being a mem- ber of Assembly. 2. Prof. Scrimger, D. D., of Montreal, was appointed by Winnipeg Presbytery as an Elder, and is therefore ineligible in that capacity, for tho same reason ; but as he has [547] 20 ACTS AND PROCEEDINGS OF THE NINETEENTH (fENEUAL ASSEMBLY l)eon a])pniiite{l by liis own Prosbytory us Minister to represciit it, he is, thoreforo, by thin appointniunt a momber of tlif Court. 3.

The General Assembly will be alwaysready to entertain the subject of union with other Evangelical Churches, and in particular with the Congregational Church, when, in the providence of God, good results seem to be i)romised ; but, in view of the action reported as taken by the late meeting of the Congregational Union, it appears better not to take the step recommended in the memorial from the Presbytery of Toronto. In testimony, however, of the importance which the Church attaches to the more complete manifesta- tion of the unity of the Redeemer's body, the General Assembly appoints a Committee on the general subject of I^nion, with instructions to hold themselves ready to confer with- any similar body or bodies which may be appointed by any other church or churches, should the way be clearly opened up for conference. The motion was agreed to, and the Moderator was lecjuested to nominate a Com mittee in accordance therewith. MINUTES OF SYNOD OF MANITOBA AND NORTH-WEST TERKITORIKS.

That while the Assembly gave the Augmentation Committee authority to reduce the grants if necessary, so as to eijualisu the receipts and the expenditure, the As- sembly iirudy adheres to tlie nunimum stipend originally agreed upon in ihe organization of the Fund, and expresses the hope that no reduction may bo found neces- sary in the future. 3. That the Assembly directs the ITome Mission Committee of the Western Section, and the Augmentition Committee of the Eastern Section, to issue, unitedly, to Presby- teries and Congregations, a statement setting the state and importance of the Fund clearly before them. 4. That these Committees be requested to apjwiint some of tlu>ir meuilers or others as deputatitms to each Presbytery, ■-..'d that Presbyteries be re(iuired to afl'ord opportu- nity to tl'.ose deputations to appear ' efore them, and to hold conference with them as to the cotidition of the Fund within Uieir bounds ; and to take such action iis may seem best calculated to advance the interests of this very imjiortant scheme. 5. The As.=embly enjoins Presbyteries to take the greatest care in sending up ajipli- cations to the Committee, so that noctmgregation may receive aid from the Fund which it is not fairly entitleil to receive, and to act with great caution in erecting new congrega- tions which may become .i !)urdcn on the Fund. 6. It is also recommended that the Assembly direct that these (wo Committees con- fer together during the year, with a view to tlie ])ossiblo suggestion of anj' changcH in their mode of woi'king, or in their relations to one another ; to report to next Assembly. HXLARGEMENT OF SYXODICAL POWERS — REVOUT ON. On belialf of the Convener, Principal Grant, Dr. Laing submitted the following brief report of the Committee appointed last year, to consider the proposal to inlirge the powers at present enjoyed by Synods in our Church : — Your Committee have considered the matter remitted to them, and beg to report that, in view of the little interest manifested by the Church in tlie remit to Presbyteries of the proposal that Sytiods may issue all complaints and appeals not involving polity or doctrine, it is inexpedient to suggest, meanwhile, any other Cuanges. Dr. T.aing moved the reception and adoption of the rep(>rt, which was agreed to. REMIT 0\ 8VN0DICAL POWERS— AGAIN SENT DOWN. It was moved by Dr. Laing, duly seconded, — • That the decision arrived at, at a previous Sederunt, adopting the report of the Ci ui- mitteo on Ucmits, anent the disposal by Synods of appeals, not involving fjuestions of pitlity or doctrine, be reconsidered. This was agreed to. It was then moved by Mr. Crozier, secondeil by Dr. Laing, and agreed, That the remit be again sent down to Presbyteries to be reported on to next Assembly.

Principal Caveii, Joiiit-Convtsnor, presentod and read the report of the Committte on .Syjtematic Boneliccnce, and moved that it be received and its recommendations con- sidered. This was agreed to. The several recommendations of the report were adopted, as follows ; — 1. Tliat the Committee on Systematic Beneficence be reappointed, and directed to use diligence in securing a fuller statement of the actual condition of this fpiestion througliout our Church. 2. That thereafter statistics be only sought each third ye.ir, and that tlic work of the Committije in the intervening years be directed to the circulation of information, the dissemination of literature, and operating through Presbyteries at such points as may demand attention. 'A. That each Presbytery be urged to appoint a Committee, or at least a convener, to attend to tlie interests of Systematic Giving in the Presbytery. 4. That all the Sabbath Schools of the Cliurch be urged to contribate at least to one of the Schonus of tlie Church. 5. That enijuiry be madt) by Presbyteries as to the possibility of intrt>ducing more uniform and eti'ective methods of raising money for the Schemes of the Church, and that I'losbyterial visitations atid pastoral settlement be used as oppcu'tunities of securing better organization.

The Assembly approve of the alteration in tlie rules, reconuneuded by tlie Committee and ad ipted by the Ministei's beneficially interested in tlie fund. Tlie motion was adopted, \l'i!reseiited ihe rep U't of the Western jSection, and briefly pointed out the conditi >n J liec. J. C. Martin. There was read a conununication from Mr. J. C.

Dr. McLaren moved, seconded by Mr. J. II. Beutt, — That the Clerk be instructed to inform Mr. Martin of the action taken in eases sucli as his — having their names apjjcnded to the roll of one of the Presbyteries of the Church — in which case, if application was made by him, his application would be consitiered by the Atrsembly.

The Moderator then closed the session with the Apostolic benediction. [o9l] [i-] APPENDIX No. 1. REPORT OF THE HOME MISSION COMMITTEE OF THE PRESBYTERIAN CHURCH IN CANADA (WESTERN SECTION) FOR 1892-93. The Home Mission Committee in again presenting their annual report to the (leno- ral Assembly, have to record their gratitude to the great King and Head of the Church, for the success that has attended their efforts during the past year. A large number of new fields, especially in the North West and British Columbia, have been taken up, while many Mission Stiitions have passed on to the list of Augmented Congregations, and a considerable number of Augmented Congregations have become self-sustaining. The de- mauds made upon the Committee are constantly increasing year by year, requiringa much higher degree of liberality on the part of our congregations, if the Church is to maintain the positicm she has attained, and advance to still greater things, in the years to come, The hope of the Committee is that, as the ability of the older provinces to give is gra- dually being lessoned by constant emigration of Presbyterian families, these newer I'rovinces and Territories, as they become more thickly settled, will be able to make much larger contributions to the funds. In the Report now submitted, in addition to the regular contributions for Home Missions, there are presented the amounts expended by congregations and individuals in certain Presbyteries during the year for mission work, in mission fields in towns and cities. The list is doubtless incomplete, but, in so far as given, they have been reported. The arrangement of the llej)()rt is the same as last year. The two branch s of our work— Homo Mis ii iis and Augmentation— have been kept distinct, in the liopi; that this will facilitate reference to the work done by the Presbyteries in each department, instead of ha'-'ng them reported together. The Report contains particulars more or less copious of Lhe progress of Home Missions and Augmentation in the diflerent Provinces and Presbyteries, reports of the Students' Missionary Societies, the Lumbermen's Mission, the reports of Presbyteries rou'arding Young People's Soci;ties, the Fiuanc'al Statements of the two branches of our work, Home Mission and Augmentation, and other matters of interest that have engaged the attention of the Committee during the year. The appendix presents complete and carefully prepared statistics, of all the Mission Stntinnsand Aug- mented Congregations under the care of the Committee, with the names of the missionaries, probationers and student catochists now employed. HOME MISSIONS. REPORTS FROM PRESBYTERIES. PRESBYTERY OP QUKBEC. The Mission Field of this Presbytery is one of the largest in the Synod and porliaps one of the most difficult to overtake. Stations are widely separated. Amidst many dis- couragemontfl and difficulties arising from the peculiar position we occupy in the province, it is a great comfort and joy to our people to have the Gospel preached by Missionaries of our own faith and language. Supply has been given all the Mission points within the bounls with considerable regularity throughout the past year. 11. Appendix No. 1. Metis. — Will be supplied by a student during sunnner. We hope to secure an ordained Missionary in the fall. Vakartier and Stoneham, — Mr Ashe is doing capital work here. Kennebec Boad, — Rev. Mr. McDonald has resigned and gone west. It is at present in charge of a .student. Many of the funiiliea in this lociility are moving away. Tlioy are a kindly generous people, anxious to have the gospel preached in their inidist, surrounded by French and liaving no otlier Protestant Church. LaJie Megantic Village. — Is growing slowly, the people are liberal according to their ntimbers. Portnenf. — Was supj Med all winter by Morrin College Students, but there is not much growth ; they are \ / desirous to have Presbyterian services. Sawytriilh, Ma.-attiwipi'i, Bichhy etc. — This Held covers a large section of country. Considerable progress lias been made during the past year, large numbers uniting withtlie Church on i>rofeBijion of faith in Christ. Mr. Tanner has been appointed ordained missionary, with the assistance of a student for the summer. New h'uckland. — Is a mining region, settled by Welsh [leoide. Our missionary, being a Welshman, preaches In their own language, which is mucli appreciated. Chicoutimi. — is a town of two thousand inhabitants, situated at the head of Saguenay river. Our missionary Mr. Ferguson was obliged to rcsii^n la:st summer, owing t Stafford and Osceola and has so added to the strengtli of the nussii>n that it is now in a piusition bo support an ordained missionary comfortably. The other fields have been quite prosperous, but there is nothing which needs to be speciAlly mentioned with regard to them. PRESBYTERY OF BROCKVILLB. We have only two mission stations and both are receiving aid from the Home Mission fund. 1. MorUm and Seelci/s Bay : This station, formerly under the care of an oi''iiued missionary is now in tho hands of a student. The field is widely scattered and there is not much more that can be done than simply preach tho (Jospol to the people who 6elong to it. A grant of 9ii.00 per Sabbath is given by the Homo Mission Committee. IV. Appendix No. 1. 2. Stone's Corners, North Augusta and Fairfield : This field is still continued on the Home Mission List as a mission station. Presbytery has taken action wiHi the view of ascertaining whether their financial strength will justify them in placing this field as a settled charge upon the AugmonUvtioii List. If these stations be not within sight of this step they very socm will be, as they are prospering continuously. Besides regular contribut'ona to Homo Mission Funds, St. John's Church, Brockville, furnishes $4.00 per Sabbath towards the support of a missionary in Manitoba. PKESPYTKRY OF KINGSTON. Of the nineteen mission fields within the bounds of this Presbytery, six are now in charge of ordained missi(maries. Of these three were appointed to their respective fields during the past year, and two were appointed for a term of two years each. All the oOier fields were efficiently wrought during the past summer by students, and supply was also granted as far aa practicable during the winter. Some of them weru supplied with ordinances regularly and others during the colhge vacation, and at other times as opportunity offered. Never have the reports received from the diflferent fields been more favourable than during the past year. A long felt want has been met by the appointment of the Rev. George Porteous to tho North Hastings. District in Jannary last. His services are to be given statedly to the mission fields of L'Amable, Ac, and Carlow, Ac, but he is to exercise a general super- vision over the students labouring in the diflferent mission fields of this large district. As reported last year Mr. J. D. Boyd, B. A. , when ordained in IVfay of lost year was ai)pointed to Pine Street Church, Kingston, his salary for the first year being provided for by contributions in equal proportions from those connected with the mission, from Queen's College Missionary Associaticn and from members of other congrcgiitions in the city. This year a grant of $3.00 per Sabbath from the Assembly's Home Mission Com- mittee was asked for and obtained, to relieve the Queen's College Missionary Association from a part of the burden they had assumed, and to leave them free to extend their work in other directions. Ficton, which had fornu rly received a grant from the AugmonUtion Fund of from $150.00 to $200.00 per annum was pluced on the list of mission stations, and Mr. D. G. McPhail, B. A., when ordained in May of last year, was appointed to take charge of the station, the people thero undertaking to provide the whole of his salary. Recently a call in his favour has been moderated in and there is every prospect of his being settled as minister of the charge without any aid being required from the Augmentation Fund. Camden VIII and TamwortK, which formerly received a grant of $300.00 per annum, having become vacant, was placed, in March last, on the li.st of mission stations and a grant of $2.00 per Sabbath was given by the Home Mission Committee to assist in sup- plying ordinances. Roslyn and Thurlow, which had been wrought for some time as a mission stati<.n, was in March last raised to the position of a vacant congregation, and is now about to extend a call. A grant from the Augmentatic"" Fund of $200.00 per animm has been promised in the event of a settlement. The trrants from the Home Mission Fund made to tho Kingston Presbytery are some- what in excess of those of last year, bui tho number of ordained missioiniriea appointed has increased two-fold. By a re-distril)ution of tho fields, or a ro-classificatiou^ the slight ncrease of expenditure to the Home Mission Fund of the Church has resulted in a very material reduction of the amount required from the Augmentation Fund. odas Appendix No. 1. V. PRESBYTERY OF PKTBRBOItOrOH. Ualibwrton and Minden have had the services of an ordained missionary since May, 1892, first, in the person of tho Rev. J, L. Hargrave for the summer six months, and second in the person of the Rev. S. Macdonald, since November last, who is still in the field. As evidence of Mr. Macdonald's efficiency it may be stated that the Presbytery requested the Home Mission Committee in March last to re-appoint him for two years to the field. Tn September last the people made an offer .)f $4 per Sabbath additional for i student to aid the missionary so that each of the four stations might have service every Sabbath. Two obstacles lay in the way of acceding to this request : 1st, the difiiculty in finding a conveyance to carry the student from sta'^ion to station, and 2nd, the large grant from the Home Mission Fund to make it effective. The fact of the ofifer having been made, how- ever, seems to indicate progress. Vhandoa and Burleiyh. — This field has had partial supply during the printer throJf*i a student missionary, who was teaching in the neighbourliood, and who acted as their mis- sionary at somewhat reduced rates, until the end of the year when he returned to College. The people are desirous of a full winter supply, and promise to contribute at the same rate for this as for supply during the summer montiiis. narvey. — This field has had supply all winter through Mr. Locke, a catechise, who is di>ing excellent work. The people have asked and have obtained from the Home Mission Committee his re-appointment for the summer. The congregation at Lakehurat are earnestly engaged in taking steps for the erectioi. of a new church in which undertaking the Presbytery has given then e^ery encourage- ment even to the extent of promising pecuniary help. PRESBYTERY OF LIND.SAY. The claims of this Presbytery on the Home Mission Fund are heavier this year tftan last, owing to the fact that two mission fields within bounds, formerly supolied by students, are now under the care of ordained missionaries. The sum which your Commiiio? asked from this Presbytery was allocavsd among the congregations and all were urged to contribute. Cannington paid J7 and Lindsay ^0 to mission work, besides the special work of our own ciuirch. Our Young People's Missionai-y Association has been organized but no money collect ed as yet. The organization of other congregations is postponed till the General Assembly organizes the young people of the church in one organization for all branches of Christian ' work. PUKSDVTERY OF TORONTO. Mt, Albert and Ballantrae have taken a step forward. After Mr. Scott, who supplied during the suinnier, had left for college in autumn, Rev. Mr. McFadyen has with great acceptance supplied these stations, and the people are anxious tiiat he should settle amongst them aftbr the meeting of the General Assembly in June. Afimico. — Only a few years a;.{o work was commenced in this place. Last tall tba Mission extended a unanimous call to Uov. Alex. McMillan, who was inducted last De- cember. Excellent results are already manifest and tho prosi'txts are indeed bright. Dovercaurt. — Here the work is full of encouragement anf snow, Viut tlioro does not appear to have been much irregularity in the supply of the stations. At Collin.!- wood Mountain and Gibraltar the services were suspended for some weeks. The work of the missionaries- a] "pears to have been faithfully carried on, and in some cases with tiie result of increased u ombershipand lively spiritual interest. Refereiico may bo made to *he labour of Mr. L. McLean, student, at Wyevale, Gibson's and Van Vlack, which was followed by the addition of thirty-four to the membership on profession of faith. The missionaries at Kilwirthy and Tompkins' School-house report a lively interest ammig tl'o people in reG;ard to s['iritual things. There have been several new churches built in the mission tield, some of them, ns at Sprucedale and Wyevale, handsome structures for the localities. On Squaw Island, where services are heM for the fishermen resortint; tl ere in summer, a church was erected at a cost of $44. 50 said to bo " neat, comf(urable r.nd will seat one hundred persons-' Reports show a total expenditure of JliHo** on the mission churches, and of $014 for incidental expenses, besides more than $8,000 for support of >)rdi nances. It is unnecessary to enter, in these notes, into detailed information of the work in the Muekoka and Parry Sound Districts, as it will be found in the rcioit of Rev. A. Findlay, the Superintendent of Missions. It may be of advantage to the church to call attention to the contributions to the Ilome Mission B'und of the statiims in th' se districts. Let any one take up the Assembly's statistical report and observe the stuns contributed by them as entered in the Presbytery's report, then let him compare those with the contri- butions of the averagj coiigregi- tions of that or of any other Presbytery, bearing in mind the oniall membership of the siations and the circumstances of the people, and he wilj tind evidence that the peopl* appreciate the work of the Homo Mis.sion Commit tco liy re- turning as they are abie at a high average rate of giving. But their giving represeiits to some extent the work of the Suporintenduit in pro-'iiitin!,' the claims of the C ..imittee and if those comparatively poor people respond so well to his rop'oaentivtions, how much more liberal would the contriliutions of many congvei^'at ions bo, wire the nocessitiea of the fund faithfully prosfed up(m them. Tho work in tho (jther parts of the Presbytery has been carried on successfully. Mission Stations have been organised as follows : 1st, at FiVarett, IV sta'ion on the railway in tlio township of Tosoroiitn. 2nd, at Oro Siation on the railway between Bar.io and Orillia. 3rd, at Van Vlack j at the moutii of the N( t- tawaaaga River, connected with Vv'yevale and Gibson's. 4th, at Allan dale, an oirslmot fromtho congregation of Harrie, supplied with service under the lilieral care of the Session. Appkndix No. 1. Vll. ft has prospered, not requiriiiiJ! tho Homo Mission grant which was applied for, and look- ing forward towa d bocominga settled and probal)ly solf-sus'tHining ch;irge. The Presby- tery contpuiplates a roarrangomont of ciingrej;!ution8in different parts of the bounds, which if effected will n suit in lessoning tho applications for aid from the Home Mi«flionand Aug- mentation Fundf. rUKSBYTERY OF BAKRIB. {Rev. A. Findlny's liepoi-t.) Without going into ivrticulars in this field, which would be to go over tl.e ground already covered by my r^Mort to tiio Committee in March last, I may say that the work in this field continues to proj^. esa f.ivourably under existing circumstances. What ha'i been a source of complaint in the oliler [):irt3 i>{ tho province lias also been felt by us in this newer part to an a])preciable extent, viz. tho removal of families connected witli our station to tho Noi t h-west and other j)art«, thus decreasing our streii^M h both financially and numerically. Those remaining in our stations thus depopulated, tlvngh finding theniHolves straitoiiod Bonu'what, are not cast ilown or discitiiraged, but in some cases are making a noble effort to maintain ordinances in their midst. Service to a larger extent than ever at this season was given tc the fields in the Pres- bytery during the past winter. During the summer months forty fields will be occupied. We hope soon to have two settled charges, at North Bay and Sundridge. Rossoau for the first time luv-s an ordained misaion.iry and Plmsdale may soon be expected to bo in the same position. Though the winter was unusually severe and stormy, yet most of the stations in this Presbytery were visited and tho usual interest manifested in the prosperity of tho work, not only among themselves but also in the work of the church at large. During the year $7.'i5 has been contril)uted to tho Schemes of tho Church, ohietly to the Uome Mission Fuiul, making in all from the mission fields in the two Presbyteries of Alc;oma and Harria tho sum of $1360, an advance of over $100 upon the amount oontribut«?d during tho previ- ous year. That so deep an interest is taken in the work of sending tho g( spel to those wh'> aio still destitute of it by our people in those newer parts is surely cause for gratitude to Ilim who lias all hearts under ITis control. PltKSRVTKRV OF OWRN SOUND. Our mission fields have been grailually increasing in numbers and strength. Several have been supplied during the past year by ordained missionaries. We have nc)w only two students in the field. By utilizing tho services of youn«< men studying with tho view of i-nterin.; the ministry of our Church we have been able to give much more regular winter supply than in past years. PRKSBVTERY OK SAUOERN. This Presbytery has two mission stations : 1. Mildmay, Ayton, and Normandy. This srcup of stations has been supplied during tho year by a student in the hope of a settlement before long. Good wiik has t)een dune, but as the stations are widely separated, the field is difficult to work. 2. Cot.iwuld. This field ha.s been Kuppliod ovory Sabbr.t) afternoon by tho Rev. M. C. Cameron, Ilarriston. As Rothaay, however, is about to be transferred from Gueljjh to this Presbytery there is some hope. In the near future, of a union of the aforesaid. Then Cotswold and Rothsay wouM become a solf-susUvining charge. VUl. Appendix No. 3. PRESBYTERY OP GUELPH. There is little to record as to the progress of Uoino Missions i^urinf; the year beyond this : 1. That Preston has been joined to the congregjition at Doon r,nd the two formed into a pastoral charge. They are ni)W taking steps to erect a church edifice in Preston, and are going forward to call a minister. 2. Drayton, which has been receiving at the rate of three dollars per Sabbath from the Homo Mission Fund, has reduced its api-lication to two dollars and a half. No change to report regarding the other stations. Eden Alills is still under the pas- toral oversight of Mr. Strachan, of Rock woof', and Gale Church, Elmira. under that of Mr. Hamilton, of Winterbouvn- It is e oecttd thp*^^ Knoj Church, Dracon, and Metz vill soon call. Pfef:!:»VrK('. ) -V HAM .-ON. By a re-arrangement of the i ''< 1^' .!»•<.. idur t has been reduced to the status of a mission station. A new church has been built at International bridge (Fort Erie iiehi) which will soon be completed. . Ancaster and HagenviUe are each being supplied by a student for the summer. PRESBYTEUY OF PARIS. New Dundee and Baden were wrought last year by the Students' Missionary Society. Baden is within the bounds of the Presbytery of Gueljih, and correspondence is being had with the latter, with the view of transferring both stations to ontf Presbytery. Balfour i^t., Went Brantford and St. Andrew's, are two flourishing mission stations under the care of Zion Church Session. For the more vigorous prosecution of the work in these stations, a student has been secured for the summer. Zion Church has generously undertaken to defray the entire expense, thus relieving the Committee of a considerable amount. Verschoyh a very promising mission station, has been opened between Jngersoll and Tilsonburg. Messrs. McGregor and Hutt have given much time in its development. A handsome church was dedicated on the 29th of January last, at a cost of $5,000, ail of which has been paid except $1,700. The station is being wrought this summer by a student, along with Culloden. A union of the two will shortly be effected whicli will soon, if not from the outset, make a self-sustaining charge. PRESBYTERY OK LONDOX. The workable grounds within the bounds of this Presbytery is now pretty fhlly occu- pied, so that the ticid for purely mission operations is very limited. The niission station in North Ekfrid, recently organized, though still weak, is promising. A handful of Pre?, byterian families have shewn their earnestness during the past winter in taking steps to build a church, which is now in process of erection. Service has been maintivined during the winter by laymen from neighbouring congregations. A student will labour regularly during this summer. In the (7i<3/ o/Xondon flourishing mission Sabbath Schools are being maintained hy St. Andrew's and First Presbyterian congregations respectively. The latter expended over $300 during the year in school buildings and current expenses. Besides this, the North NVestminster congregation gave $42 towards a church building in the North West. Appendix No. 1. IX. PRESBYTEUY OF CHATHAM. Ti on has been substantial progress in the misHion fields under our euro. The Blytheswotnl group was raised to the status of a vacant charge, and are now set- tled. In the Colchester group a new church has been built and opened at Harrow, at a cost of about $1,000, of which about eight hundred has been paid. At Kent Bridge the contract for the erection of a now brick church has been let, and will be opened this summer comparatively free of debt. PRESBYTERY OF SARNIA. There are four mission fields in this Presbytery, one of which was opened during the past year. Two are now erecteil into congregations. PRE.SBVTEUY OF HURON. This Presbytery has now no mission station. Leeburn and Union Church, Goderich Township, which were worked as mission stations last year, are now on the list of congre- gations, hearing candidates with a view to a settlement. PRESBYTERY OF BRUCE. Since the Algoma district was taken from this Presbytery, we have no mir uvii fi« ■ properly speaking, within our bounds. Wo are contemplating a re-arrangemt . "i lo > u (if our stii.ions, which may necessitate an application to the Home Mission Ci - nil "p for some aid — but not if it can possibly be avoided. PRESBYTERY OF ALOOMA. This new Presbytery which was erected by the General Assembly last • .overs a territory 300 mile? lung by at least 100 miles broad. It includes Manitoulin and adiacent islands, the townships situated on the north shores of Lake Huron and the Georgian Bay, the towns and stations on the Sault branch of the C. P. R. , and also those on the main line from Sturgeon River on the east to White River on the west. A decided impulse has been given to Home Mission work in this extensive region by the closer supervision which tlio new Presbytery his been able to give to it. Four new fields have been added during the year to the list with which the Presbytery began. These new fields have been made up in part of entirely new ground, and in part of stations that were worked before in connection with other fields which had grown too large to be workoil efficiently by one missionary. The new fields are : — Ruck Lake, embracing six preaching stations and lying some fifteen or twenty miles north of Bruce Mines. Chapleau, a divisional point on the C. P. R. 170 miles west of Sudbury. Fourteen Presbyterian familiei were found there last 'Summer by Mr. Findlay. It is proposed for the present to work this station in connection with Cartier and Chelmsford. Opliir, with four stations. This field lies east of Ruck Lake. It i)romises to be the centre of a largo pi'i ulation in a short time. Minining operations on an extensive scale have already been begun. MiU.i, on the Manitoulin, with four preaching stations. Two of the statitins were formerly connected with G<>re Bay under Mr. Mc(»illivray who had more than he could properly attend to. One statiim, Burpee, was also taken from the Burpee field. The remaining stations of the old Burpee group are to bo known as the Silverwater field. Encouraging progress was made on that field during the past year. Appendix No. 1. Thcro aiii at present tweiityseveii mission tjolds occupied by the Presbytery. Cmi- nected with these thure arc niimhy-two preaching stations. During the past winter the large majority of those stations received supply. The working force consisted of seven ordained ministers, three Btuuenta and eight ciktechista. In addition to these the session of St. Andrew'.s Church, Sault Ste. Marie, kept up services at the Canal Mission every Sunday evening. The exceptionally stormy character of tlie winter liowever made the work ir moat places liard, andin quite a few instances the missionaries found it impossible to reach their apj)ointments. It was a matter of mucli regret to the Presbytery that during last winter such an important tield as Tarhnt. had to be left witliout supply. The missionary ai)pointod in October declined to go. Every effort was made to iind another but without success. Themihm has been happily provi'Ied for by the appointment last October of Rev. J, L. Robertson as oi'dained mis.sionary for two years. AUiOMA. (/i«w. A. Fivilhufs Jii'ivirt.) The history of this new Pre8l)ytery in the first year of its existence gives abundant proof of the wisdom of the General Assembly in establishing it. A different atmosphere seems to prcviul in every department, a deeper and livelier interest being taken by mis- sionaries, odico-bearers and people in the prosperity and advancement of tlio work. The progress of the work may be st-on in its development. Five additional fields have been formed this year by sub-dividin.^ older fields and taking in new territory lying cimtiijuous thereto. Hy tliis means at least seven new atiiti)n3 are opened. Again ad- vancement is shown by consolidating; the work. As the work develops on certain fields, a bettor division of the field is often suggested, which leads to tlie closing up of some stations altogether, giving hope of having in due time large and strong congregations centrally situated. This is notably the case on the Day Mills field, also in the Gore Bay and Korah fields. An effort is being made by the Presbytery to commoiico the work a. ong the muny French settlers who are making homes for themselves in this now part of Ontario. To this end they desire the services of a missionary under the auspices of the French Evan- cjolization Society, firmly convinced of the need of such, bidieving that a wide field would thus be opened for such an agency. The initiatory steps are being taken and we hope soon to see the man on the field. Not the least encouraging symptom of growth is found in the contributions to the Schemes of the Cliurch by those stations. This is purely a missionary I'rosbytery, with tliree settled cliarges, all on tlie AuL,'montation Fund ; four ordained missionaries and twenty-two fields under the care of student missionaries and catechists ; yet their con- tributions to the Schemes for the past year amount to nearly |()28 with two or three points yet to hear from. Of this §140 was from the settled charges, leaving 8185 from the missior field people. While, as was meet, the Homo Mission Fund received the lartjer share of this, yet the other Schemes were not overlooked, each, we belinve, to a greater or less extent being lemuml.iered. Synod of Manitoba and tue Nouth-Wkst. {Dr Robertson's Rfyort.) The conditions in Western Canada have been so fully set forth in previous reports that a briefer statement of certain matters may suflice this year.

Last year over 38,000 are reported tohavo found a home in the West, and this spring a number have settled on Iho prairie. The ncw-couiers are mostly from Ontario, the Northern States, Great Uritain and other European countries. From Nebraska e.g. a number of farmers have moved into the cnuntry north of Citlgary, recently oiienod up by the C. «fc E. Railway. At Edmonton and Red Doer, two j)oints only one hundred mi'ts apart, over 1200 homestiuds were taken last season and large (juuntities of land were bought from railway and land comiianies. Where four mis.sionaiies of tlie Church labour- ed last summer nine will be employed this season.

The bulletin showed too, that of the total increase of population in Manitoba, between 1881 and 1801, 'dt^h per cent, was Presby- terian. Uut these figures accentuate our responsibility, since so large a proportion of the people are the children of the Church. SCHOOL LKQIBLATION. The decision of the British Privy Council, touching the Manitoba School Act cf 1890 has been published since the last report wta made. The Council declares the Act to be intra. vires of th'', Legislatui., and maintains that the Act does not interfere with any of the Rights auu privileges enj'iyed by the Roman Catholics, in the matter of .schools, prior to the Union. The Roman Catholics have appealed to the (!overnor-Oeneral in Council for redress and their case ia sub judioe. Nine of the Roman Catholic school districts Xll.

Tlio oHt(il)li8limont of two schools, when thoit) /ire not sulliciont scholiirH for one, is it wasteful policy, especially in a new country. Honcu there was general satisfaction, except on the part of the Roman Catholics, with the decision of the Council. In the Territories, too, there is a good deal of unrest on the question of schools. The following resolution was adopted bv the Synod in November last. " That this Synod, in accordance with the position taken at previcms meetings of Sytiod in favour of national hcIiooIs, desires to express its continued anxiety for their complete establishment throughout the bounds of this Synod." This applies to the Ter- ritories as well as Manitoba. The Synod also strongly endorsed the regulation now in force in Manitoba providing for religious exoriisos in the schools. LIQl'OH LEOISLATION. At the provincial election in Manitolvi last summer, the Leginlaturo endeavoured to ascertain tlic mind of the peoiilo on the iiue.stion of prohibition by a plubi.scito. The vote stood nearly lino.' to onu for prohibition. No attempt lia.s, however, been made to ex- press the n.iind of the people in IcL^iHlation. The Lo^'islature made some roprosentationa to Ottawa, but not much relief need bo expected from that (juarter. Prohibition has been ■il'oliahed in the Territories and a spocioa of high license introduced. At every point visited, in(|uiry was made as to the oU'ect of the new law on tem^x'rance, and the verdict, at every point but two, was adverse. We are convinced that time will make this verdict yet more emphatic. Notwithstanding the ditliculty of enforcing a liquor law in such a province as Hriii.iii Columbia, owing to its extent and the expense in m.iint.'iining officers, yet it is expeiited that the tl(isin<4 of all bars on the Sabbath, oven in the largo centres will bo a great boon. The eflfect bus already been beneticial, OVKULAFl'lNd AND OO-OrKRATION. Statements have frequently appeared in the public press of late endeavouring to show that there is a good deal of overlapping in Homo Missions, and that co-oi)oration among the churches would save money for more urgent work. To prove thu contention, villages and towns of a few hundred people are named and the presence of more than one church in the.se is condemned. To such contention several replies can bo made. Such villages are fre luei^ily the lieaJijUJirters of the missions, which embrace a stri]) 15 or 20 miles on each sidoi/f the railway and an und^^-standing is generally reached by which, when Mr, A. preaches at the village in the forenoon, he preaches at two jjoints on the right hand side of the railway in the afternoon and evening, while Mr. M. preaches at two points on the left hand side in the forenoon and afternoon, and at the village in the evening. On the following Sabbath they change positions. Were only one church in the district, it would require two missionaries ; and experience proves that twi nnssionaries of one church will command less local support than two of diflerent churches. In the great majoi'ity of ilistricts, as the Dominion census shews, the Presbyterian Church has the largest following, is she not to look after her people ? Villages that are now small are fast becoming important, and it would be short-sighted policy to leave them to other churches, even if, for the time being, we were in the minority. The rule that might be safe for an old country would be wholly inapplicable in a new. That we have ' ever been calliwl on to abandon a field, and that our missions have steaddy advanced to the position Api'kndix No. 1. Xllt. of Rolf 8iippurt, is tlio lieHt proof tliiit due cauticn has been used in the extension of work. Nor should it bo forgotten tli^it cu-uperatiun is nut priictical)le with Baptists ov Uij^h Church AngUcaus. SUri'LY FOK TIIK VKAR. During tlio year 13(» missions wore supplied, 104 for nearly the whole year and 32 for about six months. Ropeatud ofl'orts fiiilod to securo suitiiblo missionaries for two impor- tant missions, anil three missions obtained partial au[)ply from ministers in adjoining rtelds. The total sujiply for tiiu yoAr amounted to 6,840 Sabbaths or an average of 43 for each lield. This is sli.,'htly in advanoo of the average of the previous year, which was 41j|. We were saved from a much lower average simply by tlio presoiiue of the summer ses.iion students in the field. If to these ligures are added tho.se of the 70 augmented and self- sustaining congregations we get a total of 0,7'.>2 Sabbaths supply, or 188|t years in all. And it should be added that services are regularly uiven on week days at points that cannot be reached on the Sabbath. The tiguros showing the amount of service rendered for the past four years are for 1889 112J years. 1890 i:?7 " 1891 174^ years. 1892 1884 " The total number of men engaged in connection with Home Missions and congroi;ii- tiuns was 212. Elkhorn, Franklin, Killarney and (Crystal City were advanced to the status of eon- grey;ations, and Holland, Troherne, Moo3(nnin, Russell, Mt. Pleasant and Langley became self-sustaining congregations. Tlie Home Mission Committee paid to Presbyteries last year for Home Mission work S27,r).'!l.!IO, and for Augmentation 8r),70."j, not reckoiiin.; what was paid for travelling ex- 1 enses to and from the tields. The ligures for the current year, owing to the exi)ansion of work, are likely to exceed those of last year by ^7,000 or more. It may be of interest to see where the money was expended.

Considerable difficulty was experiiiiced in yetting suitable missionaries, esj)'ei:illy for fields requiring ordained men. Some tiolds received no supply and others ha i to bo con- tent with students. Generally speaking the graduates from our colleijes shun missiciis and aiymented congregations. Western Presbyteries asked for 17 graduates and secured 7 this spring, only 4 of whom ai e students. SUMMER .SESSION AND ITS COST. The Legislation of the Assembly on the summer sessi 'U, went into etl'ect last winter, and with grutirying results. The winter was the culdest and stormiest in 20 yeais and yet very few services were missed. The audiences were, for the ni 's; [)art, encouvagirig and much interest was manifested. These young men supplied 26 mi.ssions, conneuiod with which are about 1200 families of our own chureli, and a larger numb'^r bolongiui to other denominations. But for their help, several important missiiiiis would have luu.l no supply, which wouldhave inflicted serious lo.ss onourciiuse. Nor did th-j outlay for the winter of 18J'2-3 exceed that of 1891-2 by $1400. The summer session ai'iangement from tlie aide of the mission field may hence b.) pruiiounced a distinct success. Sup^dy must come throu'^h till' summer session or some 1 otter method, as we cannot relapse into the old btato. The people do not hibernate nor should tiic church. SACUAMKNTS DISI'KNSBU. Provision was made to have the Sacrament of the Church dispensed in all fields, and the people showed the value they set on these ordinances by their attendance. One ot our ministers visited a country mission to attend to Baptisms, and althougli the d.iy 'as one of the coldest of the winter, the thermonioter stood at •'32 decrees below zero at 1 1 a. m., four children were presented to be baptized. A godmother brought her infant child to Edmonton from Beaver lake, a distance of 60 miles, to receive tlie rite of. baptism, and because she had to start home early next morning, ameetuig was convened at the manse between 10 and 11 p. m. , to have the mother's wish carried (;Ut. Insbinces have been cited to me where people walked over 30 miles to be present at a Communion, and one man was stated to have expended $10.00 in travelling expens'^s to enjoy tlM privilege of commemorating the death of his Saviour. The figures in the siati.stic.d Uvble given will show the gain in communicants for the year. SAUUA'rU SUIIOOLS. Great attention was paid to the matter of Sabbath Schools and a. decided advance made. All missionaries are instructed to organize schools at all preaching points. Where the people are unable to procure books and papers, assistance is given as far as practicalde. The Upper Canada Tract Socii'ty aids greatly in this work by giving books at low prices. There wore over 260 sd'ools in operation las'- summer with an attendmce of about 16,000. A large proportion of these were clo.srd in winter. STUUEMS Ml.SSlONAKY HOCIKTIKS, The Student.s' Mis.sionary Societies of Manitoba College, Knox College and Queen's College, gave valuable hel[) last year and they are in tlie tiol.l this year ag.iin. EtHciont men are appointed and the work done is generally of a high order. It wduld be a decided gain, if men could be selected who could remain for a year, even if the fina:iciil rosponsi- biiity of the societies ceased at the end of six months. Appendix No. 1. XV. SPECIAL FINANCIAL AID. Lar^e help is given the work by the special contributions of many congregations in the East. Since the date of the last report, several congregations have signified their willingness to help for the support of missionaries in particular fields. Knox Church. St. Thomas, gives $250.00 ; St. Paul's, Tngersol, §250.00 ; Knox, Woodstock, §-260.00 ; Hay'a Factory, 8250.00; Kiiox, Gait, $350.00; Knox, Hamilton, $230.00 ; Knox, Scarburo, $250.00 ; St. Andrew's, Scarboro, .§250.00 ; Kn»x, Kincardine, $250.00 ; Chalmers, Wood- stock, glOO ; Maitland N. S., |o0.00 to $100.00. In a commendable way those who oil'ered aid before, are remitting to Dr. Reid. Even when the great calamity overtook Springhill N. S. , and there was such large loss of life, the congregation sent in $25;). 00 tiircugli the agent of the church. N«>r is the V^est holding back. Brandon agreed to give $2."0 00 for five years and Morden $350.00, although the latter has only 68 familie.s. Wiiinipi'g, Portage La Prairie &c , continue their former contributions. THE MOltAL AND KELICilOU.S STATK OF THE WEST. The moral and religious state of the coiuitry is not easily summed up. Generally speaking the peoiile are moral and law-abidiiit;. Crimes against person or propertj' are rai'e. A healthy temperance sentiment prevails and persons under the influence of liquor are seldom seen on our streetj The people prize gospel ordinances for themselves and their children and are liberMl in their support. The Sabbath is well observed except at a few points ii the Rocky mountains ; the attendance on Christian services is large and the accessions to our communion rulls show a devout spirit. The diacipline of the church is seMom re(juired to be exeivi.-;eil. It is feared, however, that family worship is too trequently ne;,'lected aiid that family trainins; errs on the side of laxity, and with all the resp.'ct for religion it ia to be feiired that there is a good deal of formality. The power of (Jcid's graoe is not felt in the life as it should be iiocause there is too much conf' rmity to the s[iirit of the world. EveTi mis.'iioiiaries are in danger of conforming to their environ- ment. To counteract any sueli tendency it is proposed to hold conferences at meetings of Pr(!sbyteriea once f the whole revenue of the Ciiurch for that year. I A brief statement of the mis.sion work in all the Presbyteries is appended. DKTAILED STATEMENT OF MISSIONS BY PRESBYTERIES. WINNIPKa.

Silver Mountain is a mixed finning, railway and mining mission, subject to all the fluctu!xtii)ns and changes incident to such fields. The district is wide and the population swiKered, but the prospects are improved by the opening of the railway to the iron uiines. Th') average Sabbath iittendaiieo is 42, families 14. Those, however, belong to the Presbyterian Church, and all classes attend service. The Queen's Cidlege Student Missionary Society supply the f:eld this season. 4. Fort Frances stretches for 80 miles along Rainy River, whose mouth is 80 miles distant from Rat Portage. Until a railway is buib,. not much growth can be looked for, and yet the field is grcnving, and an ordained missionary should be placed in charge. At five points public services are held and visitation in other parts. The Sabbath attend- ance is 85 ; fiiniilies, 04 ; single persons, 10. 5.

Icelandic Migiion. — Good work continues to be done here, and it seems all the more necessary because Unitarianisni prevails extensively among the lending Icelanders in the west.

Two lines of railway run almost parallel tiirougli thu greater part of its length and missions are loc.ited along these for th'.' most part. Tlio building of railways recently suggest readjustments in Presbytery boundaries, and the erectioi. of a new Presbytery, that more efticient control may be secured, and attonlince on Presbytery meetings made less expensive. Out of the western part of this Pres- bytery, the r.orth-wc'stern part of the Presbytery of Brindon and that part of the Presby. lory of Ri-'gina alon'^' the Souris Railway, as far as Estevan, there should be a Presbytery formed with its centre about Alelita. Sr.tisfactory progress was made in this Presbytery on the whole, although at some points there was a decided falling off. Two missions, Killarne^' and Crystal (^ity, were put on the Augmented list, and a new mission, Napinka, was organized. South Killamtjy is to receive sni'ply with Killarney t^'is season.

A large number of settlers are coming this summer from Nebraska, (T.S., and along with them the Rev. A Robinson, a minister of the American Presbyterian Church, who wishes to join our own Church. The settlers ask for his appointment as nas- sionary and promise liberally for his support. Their request granted. The families now in the district number 35. 14. Innisfail is 20 miles farther north than Olds. During the last two seasons quite an advance was made in the field and a ''-vision seemed desirable. A church, commodious and comfortable, was built, a manse having been built the previous season. The debt amounts to over §1,000 but arrangements are made for its extinction. Families, 40 ; single persons, 22 ; communicants, 46. Central Church, ITauiilton, furnished supplement. 15. lied Deer is the town where the railway crosses the river of that name. The field is wide and needy. Families, 25 ; single persons, 10 ; communicants, 24. Member of Cen- tral Church, Hamilton, provides supplement. 10. Laeomhe is situated 20 miles further nortli and is the centre of a promising dis- trict. Settlers arc only cmning in, but the meetings held show an earnest and intelliijent peojile. 17. iVetaskimn is 152 miles north of Calgary, and promises to be a rival of Edmonton. Settlement is stretching to the east and north-oast rapidly. The field is new, an'' statis- tics not available. 18. Hwtli Edmmdon is the town starting at the terminus of the railway on the south side of the Saskatchewan river. Three other settlement.s arc to be connected with it and a mi-ssioiiary placi-d in charge. In South Edmontim alone are 10 or 17 families and as many conimuniwHits.

This Presbytery dwells among the mountains and valleys of British Columbia and has a field the wants of which are difficult to overfake. Missions, 16 ; stations, ,51 ; families, 258 ; single persons, 289 ; communicants, 189. Beginning at the east and fol- lowing the line of the C. P. R. , the tJrst mission is ; — 1. Field, cated on the Tjowor Fraser. The Presbytery is compact, and as soon as the l-nd is cleared and under cultivation iia missions will become congregations because of the fertility of the soil and its adaptability for raising grain, roots or fruit. A good market is at the door, and water and rail otter transportation. One mission, Langley, became self-sustaining and two new mission.s are placed on the list, Agassiz and Kail's Prairie, the former being a part of the Warnock field, and the latter of the Surrey field. For the past year a severe tinuncial depression prevented any naaterial advance. Four churches were built. Fields, 9 ; stations, 40 ; families, 361 ; single persons, 132 ; communicants, 192. 1. Sappcrton, owing to the closing down of saw mills, made no advance, but rather declined. Families, 25 ; single persons, 15 ; communicants, 0. Grant reduced $50. 2. Delta erected two churches, but numerically increased but little. The mis^ion.ary is energetic and successful. Families, 28 ; single persons, 12 ; communicants, 20. Sup- plement given by Morden, Man. 3. Surrey has so grown in extent that it was deemed necessary to sep.arate the south- ern portion from the tield, and organize a new mission — Hall's Prairie. A manse lias been erected and the mission is gradually becoming consolidated. Families, 83 ; single peraons, 15 ; communicants, 22. Brampton provides supplement. 4. Lanjley has grown in numbers and increased financially so as to become aelf-sup- portinj;. Families, GO ; single persons, 80 ; communicants, 55. 5. Mount Lehman received only partial supply, but promises well under the present missionary. Services are hold at five points. Families, 55 ; single persons, 3? ; com- municantw, 31. Chalmers Church, Woodstock, provides supplement for the future. Appendix No. 1. XXIX. C. Upper ChiUiwack is financially depressed, but steadily progressing otherwise. At Rosedale a church was built. Attendance at all points encouraging. Families. 40 ; single persons, 13 ; communicants, 16. Knox Church, Gait, provides supplement, 7. Warnock, as formerly laid out, was difficult to supply, owing to the lack of public roads. Growth in the upper part of the district called also for more service, and a divi- sion of the field was effected. Families, 44 : single persons, 12 ; communicants, 4b. Work laborious but well attended to. 8. Hall'ti Prairie lies along the American boundary, and is a now settlement. At present there are W families, and others are moving in. A catochist is appointed for a year. 9. Agassiz is the upper part of the Warnock field. Four stations are to receive supply. Statistics not forwarded. PRESBYTERY OF VANCOUVER ISLAND. The work on the island of Vancouver is yet confined to a very few points and these ]tiincipally mining. There is no large area of farming land, and the wealth is found in minerals, in forests and the surrounding waters, which teem with fish. The change of Government in Britain is likely to interfere with the Crofter colonization scheme, eager as the British Columbia Government was to carry out the project. In the meantime there is not much room for extension of work because of the limited population, only about 31,000 souls being on the Island. Missions, 8 ; stations, 12 ; families, 173 ; single persons, 159 ; ccmimunicants, 190. ] St. Paul's, Victoria, has made progress, and is now in a better state than ever before. The city is growing in the neighbourhood of our church, and the congregation will reap some benefit. It was deemed necessary to separate Cedar Hill from St. Paul's, (-0 that the minister might devote his whole time to the city charge. Families, 20 ; single persons, 10 ; communicants, 40. Supplement furnished last year by Women's Home Mission Society, St. Andrew's Church, Toronto. 2. Cedar Bill is numerically weak, but spirited. A church is being built. It is hoped that a union with another mission in the neighbourhood will secure a good charge. Families, 9 ; single persons, 3 ; communicants, 16. 3. Comox has been steadily growing and required the services of a missionary to overtake its work. Union Mines were consequently separated. Families, 26 ; single persons, 12 ; communicants, 17. 4. Welliufiton has made a decided advance numerically, financially and in every respect. A church, costing over $3,000, was built, and its payment provided for. The missionary intends resigning in the autumn, owing to unsatisfactory health. His removal will be deeply regretted by Presbytery and people. Families, 49 ; single persons, 70 ; communicants, 67. 6. Northjield has gone back during the year. Difticulties have arisen that interfered with attendance. A student is to be placed in charge this summer. Families, 6 ; single persons, 1 ; communicants, 0. There is a large population in the district and work needed. Northfield is a mining town. 6. Alhcriii may be said to be stationary, but with prospects of growth. Families, 30 ; single persons, 35 ; communicants, 21. 7. Sooke Metchosin, etc, retains its own but there is no growth, or scarcely room for growth. Faithful service is done.

PRKSBYTKHY OF WESTMINSTER. (f>iipplementary.) During the past year a new church was erected at (,^ppcr ChiUiwaok at a cost of ab( ur. $!J00. At Ladner's Landing, one of the stations of Mr. Glasiford's field, a church has just been completed, the cost of which was upwards of 81,000. Work has been vigorously prosecuted during the whole year in all the fields except Mt. Lehman, which was without supply for nearly 12 months. Langley becomes self-sustaining this year, and, it is expected, will soon have the satisfaction of calling a minister. On the whole, the progress throughout the Presbytery haa been as great as could reasonably have been expi;cted. Li the ruml districts at least, the conditions are such as to preclude the possibility of anything like very rapid development of Home Mission work. The work of the missionaries is extremely laborious, .and in some cases involves considerable hardship and privation. MISSION TO THE LUMBERMEN. Abstract of report from Rev. Dr. Armstrong, the convener ; — The work covered pretty much the same ground as in previous years. Bevs. D, L. McKechnie was out only one month this winter. He drove Oil miles, visited 15 camps, and sent literature to 8 others. He also visited 8 lumber depots, 14 stopping places, and 1 Hudson Bay post. He delivered, in all, 28 .addresses. A. Steicart distributed literature in 14 shanties and 3 depot.s on the Madawaska and Mississippi. B. i^teivart — In 26 shanties and 13 depots on the Oatineau. Mattheiv Brooks — In 32 shanties and 12 depots on the Boniiichere and Petawawa. Wm. Galvie — In 29 shanties and 10 depots on the Du Moine. A box of literature was sent to Rev. A. Fin.Uay for distribution in the Muskoka region ; another to Rev. S. D. bayne, Pembroke, and a parcel of French literature to Mr. Bowman, Scotstown, Que. The literature was received everywhere with joy aiid thanks. The total income was ^327 ; expenditure, «'314. YOUNG PEOPLE'S MISSIONARY SOCIETIES. Regarding the establishment of Young Tooplo's Societies sanctioned by the General Assembly of 1891, the Committee during the year sent circulars to the re[)resentAtive8 of the Home Mission Committee in each Presbytery, requesting them to take steps at the earliest date to have Young I'eople's Societies organized in every congregation within the bounds. From the reports sent in, the following extracts indicate the progress made :— PRESBYTERIES. Olengarry. — One Young People's Society organized during the year. Ottawa. — Only one reported in connection with St. Andrew's Church in that city. The matter is to come before the Presbyteiy again at its next meeting. Appendix No. 1. XXXI. Lanark and I'.mfrew. — In three congiogivtinis Young People's Mi sionary Kucioties have been organizetl. Peterborough. —Seven Young People's Home Mi.ssion Societies have been formed in connection with cons^regations within the bounds. Four of these report an aggrtv'ate contribution of $120 for Home Mission purposes. As the others hava been so recently organized no contributions could this year be expected from then. Toronto, — Nothing especial to report concerning the formation of Young People's Societies, except that the matter has been urged upon all the members of Presbytery, and that there seems to be a growing desire among the young people to aid in J^ome Mission work. Several of the congregations in the city have them, and Knox Church, Agincourt, reports the organizing of one during the year. Orangevilh. — While little if any progress has been made in organizing Young People's Missionary Associations, Christian Endeavour Societies and other Young People's Socie- ties havi engaged actively in Home Mission work and have contributed liberally to the Home Miesion Fund. Barrie. — The attention of the ministers in the bouids to the proposal to form Young People's Home Missionary Societios was called early in Oc'ober last by a circular from the Convenor of the Presbytery's Home Mission Committee, and again by the circular of the Assembly's Committee. The brethren were asked during March to report on what has berD done in the matter in their congregations. A number of replies were received ii'cUcs'ing that not much was done to constitute Young People's Societies in addition to those already formed, but there are, no doubt, societies in the congre,,'ations organized under various names who are doing something for the mission work of the Church. Nine report in the statistical r turns that there is a Woman's or Young People's Home Mission Society, but it is doubtful if these are as strictly Home Mission Societies as the Committee desire Two member.s of I'resbytery were prevented by bad roads from organizing soci- eties, and hope to succeed later on. One or two report that they could not induce the young p'-ople to organize. Midland and Stayner Y. P. S. C. E. adopted the platform of the Assembly's Committee and the last named contributed $6.00 for Home Missions of their own funds. Parry Sound reports an active Young People's M'ssionary Society, which was chiefly instrumental in raising $32 for Homo Missions and $13 for Augmenta- tion Fund, besides smaller contributions to other schemes of the Church. It appears, however, that they did not contribute the money, but made monthly calls on contributors. The following details collected by Mr. Moodie, the Presbytery Clerk, are aLso given : 1. Midland. — The Y. P. S. C. E. have adopted our Home Mission work, but no con- tribution has been sent yet. 2. Parry Sovnd. — The Young People's Mission Band here are active in interest of the Schemes of the Church. They have raised $32 for Home Missions and $13 for Aug- mentation. 3. Guthrie Church, Oro. — There is a Young People's Missionary and Literary Society. They contribute to the French Evangeliziition and Home Mission Funds ; contributed $5 to Home Missions. 4.

Ahtiole VII. — At thig meethig the Treasurer shall aiibrait a full ntatement of money received, and the allocation of the same, and shall forward it to the Treasurer uf tho Synodical Society. Until Such Synodical Society nhall have been organized, the money shall be forwarded to the Treasurer of the Church. In the event of Congref^ational Societies not allocating their funds to the Schemes, the Presby- terial Society shall do so. Until a Society in tho Synod shall have been organized, the Presbyterial report shall be sent direct to the Convener of the Home Mission Committee of the Church in time for the March meet- ing of that Committee. 8TNODI0AL 8001 KTf.

Any number of copies of this Constitution will be forwarded you as dedired. REPORT OF MORRIN COLLEGE MISSIONARY ASSOCIATION, 1892-93. The work of the students has been confined during the winter months to supplying towns and villages otherwise do.stituto of eyiwig' lical prenchin;,'. Around Quebec there are many places, where the Protestant population is not strong enough to support ordin- ances, and which are alnmst threatened with extinction. From these there come fre- quent appeals for Presbyterian services, and such fields are supijlied in many oises free of charge. In maintaining services, the Bociuty receives contributions from friends interested in this most necessitous work. It was the hope of the socit^ty tiiat tlioy might be able to suiiport at least one French speaking student about Quebec to do work among the Fronch- sneiiking Romanist population, but unfortunately the funds would not permit of such. The Mis4ion:\ry So3iety feels that if Morrin College is closed, those surrounding districts will HUlfer severely the lack of the services that the removal of the students will bring about.

A financial statomjnt for tho Home and Foreign work will be foun.l attached. QILUKUT PLAINS. J. D. S>cimii. These plains are situated between the Duck and Riding Mountains, about 200 miles north-west of Winnipeg. The nearest railway line is the Manitoba and North- Western. The settler there, though realizing tho youth and backwardness of his colony, has no hesi- tation in " proudly proclaiming tho happiest spot his own " as far as Manitoba is con- cerned. He points to forests at convenient distances, to streams, to clear, sparkling well water, to a rich soil. In fact, given a railro.id, they think they have one of the most promising sections of that western province. And i.' tho proposed Hudson Bay Railway bec.imes a reality, this Inng-feU lack will be supplied. Services were conducted at four ditlerent iioints, and were fairly well attended. Two Sunday Schools were successfully established. The numV -r of families was 10. The amount contributed by the field was .$12, leaving a cost to the Aa^ loatiouof $290.50. KINJSTINO. J. W. Muirhead, B. A. Kinistino is about fifty miles south east from Prince Albert, and is one of the best districts for growing grain or ni xed farming that can bo found. On account of the great distance from market, for grain, etc., stock-raising has been the ma'n industry and has been very successful. The settlers are well : applied with Sabbath services. There are m \i xxxviii. J m.M ix Mo. 1. represer.tativea frnm the Epiacopiil, Methodist and Presbyterian denominaLlons. There are 38 families and 26 bachelors in the whole district ;all were visited.

J. L. Millar, Missionary. This field is situated within Townships 13 and 14 and Ranges 25 and 28 in Western Manitoba. It lies about 20 milea north of the C. P. R. and about the same distance south of the North West Central R. R. Services were conducted weekly at the three stations — .Arrow River, Parkissimu and Rose Lea— and Sabbath School at one. This section is well adapted for wheat growing and cattle grazing. The settlers are chiefly from Ontario, the majority of them bein?; Presbyterians, but those of other denom- inations also attend regularly and contribute to the cause. The progress of the work has been much retarded by the lack of service during the winter months, but it is hoped this difficulty will now be remedied. Besides a libaral contribution towards the Schemes of the Church, the field contributed towards the expanses of the Missionary $196.90. The totiil cost of the field for the summer was $319.95. Cost to Association, $123.05. There are about 36 PresVjyterian families and 12 Presbyterian bachelors in the field. CKE.SCENT LAKE, ASSA., N. W. T. A. D. McKiniion. Orescent Lake is situated 16 miles south of Saltcoats, a small town on the M. S: N. W. Railway, 225 miles north-west of Winnipeg. The country is well adapted for mixed farming and ranching. The field now consists of four stations, viz. : descent Lake, Glencairn, Kinbrao, and Silver Lake. Ai'PKNDix No. 1. xxxix. A deep and growing interest in spirit ml things in noticeable throughout the wholo field. There are 12 Presbyterian families, who are thoroughly active. Fortnightly services are held in each station. The Sacraments of the Lord's Supper and Baptism were dispensed on the 7th of August, by Rev. Prof. Hart, B. D., of Manitoba College. Twenty-two sat at the com- munion table, six of whom were added to the communion roll during the summer ; five children were baptized. Your missionary received a great deal of kindness from the representatives of every denomination. Mr. Walter Murray (Elder), Crescent Lake, gave the use of one of his ponies free of charge. Total expense $2M 70 Received from field , ,"G 00 lleceived from Presbytery 178 00 Amount paid by Association .50 00 ZION CHURCH (PIXK STREET.) liev. J. D. Bond, B. A. This part of our work has l)een pushed on vigwionsly anl with marked success. Dur- ing tlieyoar 25 families have taken seats and 37 namei have been added to the communion roll. There has been a steady increase in the attendance and interest in every [lart of the work, so that now nearly all tiie seats in the Church are taken. The average attendance at Sunday School is about 130 and its giving for the year $135. The grounds around the Church have been very noatly arranged with walks, trees, grass and flowers. Directly behind the Church, a building costing $50 has been erected and is used in the summer for the Infant Class Room. Last summer the Ladies' Guild of the Cliurch matted the aisles and carpeted the platform, at a cost of $G1. They also paid during tlu) year §120 toward leader and organist, music, etc. Now they have purchased and half paid for, a very neat organ, costing $200. The ofl'erings of the Church alone towards building debt, impiove- ments, salaries, etc., will exceed §1,100. Thij pastor and managers, in behalf of the congregation, heartily thank the students, the S. S. teachers and the citizens, who have been coworkers with them in this part of the Master's work.

The following is a descriplion of the fields taken up by the Si)ciety during the past summer : — Ontario Proper, BUXTON. A. F. Webster. This field was taken up for the third time by our Society. It lies to the south-west of the Town of Chatliam in the County f)f Kent, Ont. It consists of three st.itions, Bux- ton, Union Hall and Rali>igli t outre, at each of which weekly services were held every Sabbatli during the summer months. Buxton, being an old-established congregation, long under the pioneer services of Eov. Wm King, continues to grow with bright prospects. xl. Appendix No. 1. Union Hall, four miles from Chatham, ia a new station. Organization took place thi» summer with thirty-tlireo members forming the nucleus of a congregation. The Sacrament of the Lord's Supper was dispensed by Rev. A. L. Manson at Buxton and Union Hall, after having organized the congregation in the latter place. The missionai'y received much sympathy and kindness from the people, and an inter- est was manifested in the work which was very encouraging, KENT BKIUOE AND WABASH. Jaa. Skene. This field lies in the northern part of the County of Kent. It c<< 'sts of three sta- tions : Kei;t Bridge, Grove Mills and Wabash, at each of which regular habbath services were held throughout the summer. At Kent Bridge and Grove Mills week-night services and Sunday schools were conducted. There is no regular organization, and tho members partook of tho communion witli Rev. J. Beckel's congregation at Thamesville. All tlie services were well-attended, and tho interest taken in the work makes the work in this field highly satisfactory and encouraging. COI.CHKSTEK. J. Oraij lieid. This field is beautifully situated on the shure of Lake Erie in the County of Essex, in the Township of Colchester South. It is about twenty-three miles south-oast of Windsor and is claimed by some to be one of the best farming couimunities in the Djminion. There are two stations, Colchester South and McGill. At each of these stations Sab- bath school and public services were held every Sabbath during tho summer. Woekly prayer meetings and singing classes were held at each station, and the interest taken in the work was very encouraging. The Sacrament of the Lord's Supper was dispensed, when eight united with the Church by profession of faith and one by certificate. PRE.sroN. J. 11. Uarneit. This village, which is situated in tliu County of Waterloo, about three miles east ot the town of Gait, contains a population of eighteen hundred, a large proportion of whicli is of German descent. The village is not only noted for its man ifacturing, but also for its Suljjliur Springs, which are patronized by a large number of American and Canadian tourists. In addition to our own there are four other churches in the place, which, with th6 excel tion of one, have ordained ministers. Services were held twice e\ery Sunday throughout the summer in the hall of the I. O. G. T. Sabbath school and prayer meeting were also held. All the services were well attended and will be continued throughout tho winter. In September tho Sacrament of tho Lord's Supper was dispensed by Rev. Dr. Dick- son, of Gait. Seven new members were admitted into full communion. Tho missionary was much encouragoJ by the active interest taken in all dep: rtments of the work. NEW DUNDEE A.ND BADEN. 11 T. Cockburn. New Dundee and Baden, two villages situated in Wilmot Township, County of Water loo.coustituto this field. New Dundee is a village of about 350 inhabitants, and Baden Appendix No. 1. xli. of about 900, the greater portion of whom are Pennsylvania Dutch and Gerinan These villages lie in a fine farming country, and an extensive manufacturing trade is carried on in tiaden. Services were held morning and evening at New Dundee, and in the afternoon at Baden, each Sabbath, A weekly praysr m?eting was alao held in each place. Rev. J. S. Bardie, Ayr, dispensed the Sacrament 6f the Lord's Suppar at New Dun- dee in September. He administered the (Tdinanoeof baptism also in both plares. There were seven baptisms— two adults and live infants. Three new members were added on profession of faith. BLACK KIVI:R. W. R. Johnston, B. A. The location of this field is in the norlh-wcst corner of the County of Ont given by them in the prayer meetings. The Rev. M. N. liethune still continues his sei'vices at Doe Lake fortnightly as usual, the rest of the stations will probably be without services during the winter months. At Doe Like there is a Prosbyterion Sabbath School 4nd at Lewisham a Union one, both in a promising condition. No doubt the seed which is being faittifully sown in these schools will finally spring up and bang forth fruit meet for the Master's use. The sacraments were not dispensed during the summer. LOKINO. John Radford. This field is situated in a lumbering district and is about fifteen miles south of French River and forty miles from Trout Creek and the G T.R. The great distance from a rail- road is a great disadvantage to the place, the only market as yeo being the lumber camps. It is expected, however, that a railroad will shortly be built. During the summer morning and evening services were held at Loring, and on Sab- bath afternoon services were hold at Wolf River se* tiement aud in the western part of the field alternately. Sabbath school was held weekly at Loring and Wolf River, and in the western part, fortnightly. Prayer meetings were held weekly at Loring, fortnightly at Wolf River, at the west- ern part of the fiald, and at Mr. Brooks' house. All these meetings were well attended and a great interest shown in the work. The Sabbath schools at Loring and Wolf River settlements are being carried on during the winter, also church services in the morning at Loring^ by Christian workers in the field. Ordinances were not dispunsed in the field owing to the fact that Rev. A, Findlay was unable to visit the district. CHISHOLM. J. Burnett, B.A. This field lies for the most part in Nipissing district. It is about eight miles to the cast of Powassan, which place is on the northern branch of the G. T, R. Services were held at fi>ur stations, Kell's, Robinson's, Booth's and McDonald's. Weekly prayer meeting at Kell's. There is much land in the district unoccupied, and of the settlers that are tliere several denominations are represented, so that none of the above mentioned stations are very strong. Three of these stations, Kell's, Robinson's and McDonald's, may, after this time, be supplied from Powassan ; but, as yet, no provision is made regarding forvices at Booth's, though enquiries wore being made to get service from a district to the east. Ordinances wore not dispensed owing to the fact that Rev. Mr. Findlay was unable x> visit the field. Appendix No. 1. zliii. SQUAW ISLAND. Jan. Meiizies. Thia beautiful little island is situated near the north shore of the Georgian Buy, and last year was worked in connection with Collins' Inlet, twenty-one miles away. This year it was worked alone, and, as usual, during the summer months, a number of fishermen with their families inhabited the island. Though representing several diflferent denominations, all seemed to appreciate the missionary's work, and. by united eti'ort, a neat little church was built and paid for. In it morning and evening services were hold, and during the week, day school, all of which, with the Sabbath school and prayer meeting, were well attended. Rev. E. H. Sawyers, of Westminster, visited the field and dispensed tno Communion. WAKKFN, J. b. Torrance. The field of Warren extends for some thirty- three miles along the main line of the C. P. R., midway between Nc.rth Bay and Sudbury. It comprises three stations : Verner, a French settlement, situated in a farming com- munity ; Walinapitae, a mining and lumbering village in a mineral district, and Warren, a typical milling town in the timber region. Substantial improvement was made on this field during the past year. Services were held in private houses in Verner and Wahnapi- tae and in the Oraiige Hall in Warren. Weekly services were held at Warren and Verner, and a fortnightly Sabbath service at Wahnapitae. A Sabbath school was organized at the latter station with an attendance of sixteen. A weekly prayer meeting in Warren had an avei'iige attendance of twenty-seveii. The Rev. Mtssrs. Findlay and Rondeau visited the field and dispensed the Sacrament of the Lord's Supper, two being added each time. FRENUU RIVEK. Thos. Menziei'. This field comprises two stations, one French River, a lumbering village near the mouth of French River in Parry Sound District, and the other, Bustard Islands, a fishing station about five miles out in the Georgian Bay. Poor fishing caused the removal of the fishermen early in the summer, and conseciuently this part of the field did much less for the Society than usual. French River is much the same as in past years. Sabbath and week-night services were well attended and a warm interest is shown in our work. Dur- ing the winter Sabbath school will be continued by Mrs. C. Stewart. Rev. Geo. Craw visited the field and dispensed the Sacraments. WIIITB FISH. W. B. Findlay. This field, which is about twi'iity miles long by seven wide, lies bi^tween Sudbury and Webbwood, and consists of three stations : White Fish, Iney Mine, and Nelson. There is also a number of lumbering camps along the railroad line that are in operation during the winter and spring. This district is important on account of its great mineral wealth, and for this reason it should not" be neglected by the Church. A Sabbath school was held at White Fish, and day school two days a week at another station. The Sacrament of the Lord's Supper was dispensed at White Fish by the Rev. E. Pelletior, of Webbwood. im It ;■ xliv. Appendix No. 1. KORAH AND PKINCK. D. John do II. This field lies west of the Town of Sault Ste. Marie, and is bounded on the south by the St. Mai-y l^iver and on tha west by Lake Suporior. The country is mountitinous, and in parts rooky, and on account of the fertile soil and clear streams of water, is well adapted for grazing purposes. Services were conductnd fortnightly at West Korah, Haso Line and North Prince, and were all well attended, which showed the deep interest of the people in spiritual things. Union Sabbath evening prayer meetin^^s and a Union Sabbath school are carried on by the people at the Base Iiine, and are doing much good throughout the neighbourhood. At West Korah weekly prayer meetings and a Unicui Sal/barh school and a Bible Class were held, also a Bible class and a Sabbath school at North Prince. Before the mission- ary left the field a Y. P. S. 0. E. was organized, wiih a member5.hip of forty-one. The Sacrament of the Lord's Supper was dispensed in August by Rev. \V. A. Dun- can, B.D., of Sault Ste. Marie, at the Base Line and North Prince, when ihree united by profession of faith. HKTIIUNE. J. T. Hall. This field is situated in Parry Sound District, along the Magiietawan River. It is 160 miles north of Toronto, 66 miles from North Bay and miles east of the Northern and North-Western division of the G. T. R. Mission work was begun here in 1883 by Rev. John Garrioch. The field was taken up by the Students' Society in 1885. At that time there wore no churches, the services be- ing held in private houses ; there are now two churches and a third in course of erection. At Orange Valley the services are held in the school-house. Hitherto there has been no winter supply, but the Home Mission Committee has sent a man to the field for the coming winter. The Rev. John Garrioch, of Banda, visited the field in August and dispensed the Sacraments. There were fifty-one communicants, thirty-four of whom are Presbyterians, Two united with the church on profession of faith. The thanks of the Society are due Mrs. Black, of Elora, and the Miltcn Presbyterian Sabbath school for their kindness in supplying literature to this field. I'KOVIDENCE BAY. Ge.o. I. Cm IV. This field is situated on the soutliern side of Manitoulin Island, and is about thirty miles long by twelve broad. There are six stations at which fortnightly Sabbath services were held, cccaKional week-night services being held at another station. All these services were well attended, and much interest taken in the work. The Sacraments were dis- pensed at three of the stations by the Rev. Geo. Craw, Barrie, when two new members were added by profession of faith. It was arranged that the ordinances would be dis- pensed at the other stations after the .student had left the field The thanks of the Society are due Mr. Mutohmore, who boarded the student three months free of charge. Appendix No. 1. xlv. POKT CARLINO. R. G. Muriion. Thia fiold is situated on tho Muskoka Lakes, and is a favorite summer resort. The stations taken up were Port Carlins;, Beaumaris, Bala and Killiecrankio. At Port Carl- ing and Beaumaris weekly services were hold, fortnightly at the others. These services were well attended, a large part of the attendance being tourists, — at Beaumaris wholly so. The lield provided a baat, which was named the " Knox," for the use of the mission- ary, who had to do the most of his travelling by water. The Rev. Pmf. Campbell, LL.D., of Montreal, dispensed the Sacrament at Port Carling and Killiecrankie. Tho Rev. Mr. Meyers, of Norwich, dispensed tho Lord's Supper at Bala. Eleven entered into full communion (one being baptized by Rev. Dr. Dickie, of Detroit), and there were four infant baptisms. cook's mills. Ed. W. Mivkay, B. A. The field lies along the "Soo" branch of the C. P. R., and is located about midway between .Sudbury and Sault St. Maiie. It is* over thirty miles in length, and comprises tho three stations — Algfuna Mills, Cook's Mills and Walford. Algonia Mills, before Webbwood was made the divisional point on this branch of the railway, was a flourishing village, but since the change mentioned has been made, the population has considerably decreased, there being now no important occupation. Cook's Mills is a lumbering villago, tho headquartors of tho Cook Bros. Lumbering Co. Walford is a farming settlement. If mining were to become a success in these parts, of which there are good prospects, this station might become a strong one in the future. There are Sunday schools at tho throe stations, which will bo continued during the winter months. Fortnightly services were held at each of tlio stations — Cook's Mills and Algoma one Sunday, and Walford the other. Service could not be held at Cook's Mills for the last six weeks, as the school, the only meeting place, was undergoing repairs. Rev. Mr. Rennio, of Manitowaning, visited the field in August, and dispensed the Sacrament of the Lord's Supper at Algoma Mills and Walford. Rev. Mr. Findlay dis- pensed the Sacrament at Cook's Mills in September. BERUIBPALE. Wm. J. Wed. This field lies about one hundred and sovontytive miles north of Toronto on the boundary between I'arry Sound and Nipissing districts. It is a farming district of grow- ing importanCL^, being well adapted for dairy and agricultural purposes. It has been settled f(»r about ton years by people from various parts of southern Ontario. There are four stations in coni^'uti"" with tho field, Berriedalo, Ely, Hartfell and Harkness, at two of which, Berriedalo and Hartfell, services have been held for the past ten years, the other two being comparatively now stations. Up to tho present summer the field has been worked by the Home Mission. There are sixty-eight Protestant families in connection with tho field, forty at Berrie- dalo ten at Ely, and nine at each of the other two stations. Of these thirty-six ara Presbyterian. Services were held every Sabbath at Berriedalo, and every fortnight at tho other three stations, with very encouraging attendances. Sabbath schools were conducted every Sabbath at each of tho four stations, with good attendances. Fortnightly prayer meet- ings were held at Berriedalo and Ely, both being well attended. k •: 'f. twi xlvi. Appendix No. 1. Tlie extra service at Beniodalo made it necessary for the missionary to have the us* of a horse, which was kindly supplied by Rev. J. L. Robertaon, M. A., of Burk'a Falls. Much interest is manifested in all the services. The ordinances were dispensed by Rev. J. L. Robertson in 'luly, when four new members were added. The field was oc- cupied by the missionary for four montlis. DUNCHURUH. iiiduey IVhaley. This field lies along the Magnotawan about forty miles west of Burk's Falls. It con. sists of four stations — Whitestone, an agricultural district ; Maple Island, comprising a number of well improved farms ; Dunchurch, with a population of about one hundred, beautifully situated on Whitestone Lake The other station is Ahmic Harbour. It is at the head of navigation on the Magnetawan, and is at present growing in importance. This is due to its fast becoming a summer resort. Most excellent accommodation has been provided for tourists. This summer a large number from all parts of Canada and the United States spent the season here, enjoying the splendid fishing for which Ahmio Lake is now noted. The Riv. J. L. Robertson, M. A., of Burk's Falls, held preparatory services and dis- pensed tho i:$acnlments. At Dunchurch twelve sat at the Lord's table, and three at Maple Island. There was one baptism at Dunchurch and another at Whitestone. SOUTU BAY. A. S. B(js», B. A. This is a new field to the Society, part of it has been in a larger field, of which Mani- towaning is the chief point. It is situated in the south-east part of Manitoulin Island, and consists of five stations lying somewhat in the form of a circle, on or near tho bound- aries of the Township ot Tehkummah. The people arc enijai^ed in farming and lumbering. There is also iu this field a small but important fishing station, viz., Scmth ]$ay Mouth. At White Lake, the centre of a small Presbyterian settlement, Rev. John Rennie, of Manitowaning, held service every alternate Sabbath, 80 that during the past summer this point ivas supplied with regular weekly services. A vigorous Sabbath school is also carried on here. Michael's Bay, at one time a village of considerable importance, has now but a few families, engaged for the most part in the tiini)er business. Previous to this summer no regular services had been held here for three years. It was found advisable to hold out meetiiii^s here dur ng the week. Encoiiniging week-night services were also conducted at Tenkummah. The S;icraments were dispensed at two of the stations— the Slash and Tehkummah, bv Rev. John Rennie, who received into tlie Church six new members on profession of faith and baptized one adult and five children. COLLIN 'S INLET. D. A. Souter. This field was taken up last year in connection with Squaw Island. It is situated on t"^ e north shore of the Georgian Bay and is about twenty miles west of French River. The leading industry is lumbering, which afTords employment to a large number of men both winter and summer. Tho village is quite isolated. The only communication with t'lo outside stttlements is by boat. Appendix No. 1. xlvii. Services were held in the school-house twice every Sunday ; a weekly prayer mooting was also held. These were all well attended, and the interest manifested in Christian work was very encouraging. Sabbath school is carried on throughout the entire ycim CANAL MISSION. 8AVLT STB. MARIK. T. EaUn. The field is situated at the western end of the Town of Sault Ste. Marie, and was taken up by the Society this year for the first time, mainly for the benefit of the men who are employed on the two canals which are in process of construction there. Sabbath evening services have been conducted here for the past year and a half by Rev. Mr. Rodgers and other members of Sault Ste. Marie Preihyterian Church, and a week-evening service by Rev. W.A.Duncan, B. D. , the ]atwurfiil oi^aiii/.atinn miiNt uxurt on thu guneriil piililio, miirally, socially and politically.

The report was received, and after consideration it was resolved to refer the whole matter to the Presbytery of Calgary, to be by them brought before the General Assembly. HtTPKBVIHION OK FIELU. There was submitted an overture from the Presbytery of Calgary, approved by the Synod of Columbia, pointing out the desirability of closer supervision of the work in the Synod. After lengthened consideration the following resolution was unanimously adopted:-- " That there maybe more completo oversight in the Presbyteries of the Synod of Columbia this Committee favours the making of a liberal grant to each I'resbytery, so tliat the convener of the Home Mission Committee of the Presbytery, or other suitiblo person, might be set free for a few weeks annually to visit the different fields of tlio Presbytery, with the view of securing more complete organizatiim, and advancing the interests of the work of the Church generally. Presbyteries siiall indicate to the Committeo in .Juno next, and at its March meeting ainiually, the work to bo done for thu ensuing year, so that the Committee may be in a position to make the necessary grant intelligently." SALAKV OF WINTER STIDKNTS. The Committee at its meeting in March, on recommendation of the Executive, passed the following resolution : — " That students labouring in the Home Mission field of the Church, by appointment of this Committee, be paid $1 jier Sabbath in excess of that allowed for summer work, making the salary §18 jier Sabbath, together with board. " KXKCrXIVE. It was agreed to recommend to the General Assembly that the following constitute the Executive for the ensuing year : — Revs. Dr. Cochrane, Dr. Warden, Dr. Robertson, Dr. Laing, Dr. Campbell, Messrs. Macdonnell, Somervillo, M. W. Macljean, (Jilray, and Moodie, and Messrs. Warden King, R. Kilgour, and Geo. Rutlierford. RESOLUTIONS OK RE(iUET AND SYMPATI'Y. Removal of Rev. F. W. Farvies to the U. S. — The Committee, in taking leave of Rev. F. W. FaiTies, of Ottawa, who has been an active member since the union of the Churches in 1875, agreed to place on record its high appreciation of the intelligent and c(mscientiou8 service he has rendered the Church in connection with the cause of Home Missions. His experience in a Presbytery having an extojisive and needy mission field has been of the greatest value in dealing with the whole work under the care of the Committee. We lii.

REPORTS FROM PRESBYTERIES. PRESBYTERY OF QUEBEC. There is no very great chango in the congregations receiving grants from the Augmentation Fund. Levis now gets a grant of §200 instead of ^"iOO, as formerly. It should be borne in mind that although in many localities our congregations are being depleted by the constant removal of families, yet those remaining, rather than ask for increased grants, make up the difterence themselves — in many cases exercising the greatest self-denial. As we stated last year, but for the Augmentation or some such fund, whole districts in this region would certainly be without the Gospel. Three of our augmented charges are at present vacant : (1) St. Sylvester and Leeds Village, (2) Gould, (3) Winslow. The two latter reijuire Gaelic. It is e.xpected that Winslow will be settled soon. PRESBYTERY OF MONTREAL. The congregation of the First Church, Lachute, is now oft' the list, having become self,-Nui)porting. Taylor Church, Montreal, has again increased its contribution towards the salary of the pastor, reducing the grant from the fund by $50 this year. This congregaticm are about to erect a now church building, with accommodation for fully double that of their present church. They expect to be self-supporting in another year. Victoria Mission, Montreal, has been erected into a pastoral charge and is about to call a member of this year's graduating class of the Presbyterian College, Montreal. Though not self-supporting, the congregation is no burden on the fund, as St. Paul's Church has agreed to provide the amount necessary for the minister's salary over and above the lontributiims of the people. The congregation of Westminster Church, Montreal, was organised during the year and erected into an augmented charge. Rev. M. S. Oxley was called and inducted as pastor in .Inly last. '! he congregation arc at present erecting a churcli building on Atwater Avenue. This makes the twenty-sixth Presbyterian Church in the city and its immediate suburbs. By the lamented death of the Rev. Dr. Watson, the Second Chui'ch, Huntingdon, has become vacant. It is hoped that some arrangement may be made, whereby the Augmentation Fund may be relieved. PRESBYTERY OF OLENOARRY'. We have four augmented charges . Sununerstown ; Glen Handheld and East Hawkes- bury ; Apple Hill and Gravel Hill ; and Avonmore. Dalhousie Mills, which was formerly augmented, was settled last year as a self-supporting charge, being united with part of Cote St. George (formerly connected with :he Church of Scotland.) PRESBYTERY OF OTTAWA. In this Presl)ytery augmentition is much needed and much ajjpreciated. Many of the congregations are decreasing in strength, All the more need that help should come from this heiieticnt fund to maintain faithful ministers who shall preach a pure Go8i)el in a community becoming increasingly Roman Catholic. North (Jower has become vacant tlu'ough the translation of the Rev. Robt. Stewart to a Western Held, and Hull through the lamented death of thehite Rev. Geo. Dempster. The congregation of East Gloucester, vacant at last report, lias called the Rev. A. M.'icaulay. ill .11 Ivi. Appendix No. 1. PRESBYTERY OF lANARK AND RENKRKW. Tho list of jiugmented congregations lias been chfinged during the yeivr by the dropping of Middleville and Darling, which, on the settlement of a minister, became self-sustaining. Reductions have also been made in the grants to the congregations of Elnisley and Bromley, both of which are prospering under the care of earnest and indefatigable ministers. The Presbytery is year by year the more convinced of the inestimable benefit of the Augmentation scheme. PRESBYTERY OB' BROCKVILLE. Since last report two of our four augmented charges have been removed from the list. In a third cas'^ a reduction has been made in the amount of the grant passed of $50 per annum. The constant aim of this Presbytery has always l)een to cut down, and, as speedily as possible, to cut oft* grants. They hope, ere long, to be able to dispense entirely with aid through this channel. They are deeply sensible, at the same time, that but for the Augmentation Fund and its substantial assistance they could never have reached their present satisfactory condition as to the salaries of their ministers. They are loyal to the scheme, and desire to render it unabated support. PRESBYTERY OF KINGSTON. The number of congregations receiving aid from the Augmentation Fund tliis year is seven. Last year there were eight. The total amount of grants for the current year is $1,250. Last year the amount was $1,435, while the year before it amounted to #1,675. Camden and Newburg, for wh'ch last year a grant of $50 was asked, is this year self- sustaining. For Glenvale, Harrowsmith and Wilton a grant of $300 was asked for last year This year the amount required is only $250. For St. Columba, St. Paul and Madoc a grant of $125 was given last year. This year the sum of $100 is all that is required. There is also a reduction in the amount asked for Lansdowne, etc. Camden VIII and Tamworth, which hitherto has been largely augmented, having become vacant, has been temporarily placed on the list of mission stations. On the other hand, Roslyn and Thurlow, which has been wrought some time as a mission station, lias been raised to the position of a vaavjit congregation. A grant of $200 has been asked for it and conceded in the event of a settlement taking place, and there is every j)ro8pect of this occurring. The Presbytery is anxious to reduce the amounts from the Augmentation Fund, as far as possible without injury to the cause of the Master, entrusted to its supervision. PRESBYTKRV OF I'ETEKBOROUOH. Of these Augmented congregations tliere are live in all. Two, viz. : ilavelo-k and Janet ville, etc., perhaps prematurely, were recently removed from the list of mission stations to that of Augmented congregations. By the law of Assembly, which forbids to country congregations a grant of more than $250, these lose each $50 from the fund, re- ducing tho stipend to $700 without manse. In both cases the people are doing all tliey can do in the matter of stipend. In the other three congregations there is no change since the report of last year. Api'Kndix No. 1. vu. PKESItYTERY OF LINDSAY. Thoro is nothing of special interest to report in this Proshy tory. Tho claim for aug- mentation tills year is the same as last year, Simdorlaiul receivinf.' §200. A grant of 875 was applied for on behalf of Loaskdale, but refused by the Committee. PRESBYTEUY Ob' WHITBY. Newcastle is the only augmented congregation in this Presbytery. It is very weak and cannot be expected to do more than than it is now doing for some years to come, and must either receive aid from the fund or close the chui'ch. A reduction, however, of $50 was made in the grant of the present year. Every congregation in the Presbytery has contributed to both the Home Mission and Augmentation Funds. We sometimes hear it stated that the Augmentation Scheme is unpopular in the Church, but we are persuaded a great deal of this unpopularity would cease if ministers would only take the trouble to give fuller information on the subject to tUe congregations. PKESltYTERY OF BARRIE. There were several changes during the past year, which have reduced the draft of this Presbytery upon the Augmentation Fund. Sudbury is removed from the list, having been transferred to Presljytery of Algoma. PenUmguishene and Wyebridge became vacant on July Slst, and have received §3 per Sabbath instead of §6.00. Oro, Knox Church, also became vacant and from its own resources met the expenses of supply. Guthrie Church, Oro, has been strengthened by being connected with a newly organized congregation , so that the grant is reduced from §225 to §100. Sundridgo has had studeiit supply during the year, and did not retjuire to draw more than §30 of the grant of §3 per Sabbath. It is hoped that this congregation will become a settled charge by calling some one of tho ministers now being sent to them. Owing to removals of members from Bracebridge the congregation there has been replaced on the list with a grant of 1^00 per annum. North Ray is still vacant. The grant to Uuntsville and Allansville was reduced in October from §250 to §200. The number of congregations on the list is 8, the same as last year. PRESBYTERY OF OWEN SOUND. We have at present only three augmented congregations in tho Presbytery. One of tiiese was placed on tho list in January last. Another has been gradually increasing its contributions to stipend and will be self-sustaining by the end ot this year. Several of our mission fields will be seeking admission to the list in the near future. PRESBYTERY OF TORONTO. There are eight aid-receiving congregations in the Presbytery. Queensville asks for §50 less than on previous years. It now receives §250 per annum. St. Paul's asks for §25 less than on previous years. It now receives §37 iJ per annum. Bouar Church receives §200 per annum ; Ruth Street Church receives §300 per annum ; Fairbank and Fisher- ville receives §200 per annum; Malton Dixie, etc., receives §100 per annum ; Laskey and King receives §140 per annum ; Mimico receives §2tX) per annum. The pi'ospect of growth in the larger number of these congregations is good and in a few years they will be self-sustaining. "M PRESBYTERY OF ORANGF.VIU.E. Grand Valley and South Luther no longer ask aid from the fund. In these congre- gations excellent work has been done, as the result indicates, llosemount and Mansheld Iviu. Appendix No. 1. are in the same position. For many years they received aid, but they are now able to stand alone. Dundalk has been able to succeed with a reduced grant. PRESBYTERY OF SAUOEEN. Cedarville and Esplin is the only augmented conaireoration in the Presbytery. The work here under the Rev. John Morrison goes on as in past years withou*: any increase in point of families, on account of removals to Manitoba and other places. The people cannot be expected to do much more than they have been doing. Hawkesville liaving resolved to increase their contributions towards their minister's salary by $25, the application for aid to the Augmentation Fund has been reduced to $175. PRESBYTERY OF HAMILTON. Substantial progress has been made during the year. Niagara and St. Ann's and Smithville have become self-sustaining. Morritton and Port Robinson has advanced its promise for stipend $100, and Cayuga $50, making a total reduction in the grants a.sked of $300. These congregations all recognize with gratitude the great benefit derived from the fund. A furthei- reduction is expected at the close of the year. PRESBYTERY OF PARIS. There are three augmented charges within the Presbytery, viz. : Mount Pleasant and Burford, Onondaga and Alberton, and Waterford and Windham Centre. The two last named have recently secured settled pastors. The settlements have been most hearty and harmonious and the prospects are encouraging. PRESBYTERY OF LONDOX. Inasmuch as several of our weaker pastoral charges are in districts where there is not much room for growth, but yet where it is important that the cause cf our Church be maintained, there is not much change to be reported from last year. Every effort is put forth by the Presbytery to In-ing the assisted congregations up to the highest possible rate of giving. Indeed, this is so much the case, that the tenure of the pastorate of assisted charges is felt to be very insecure. Tlie esteemed pastor of London East has resigned. Wardsville has suffered recently by the burning of the manse, and its pastor has also resigned. Aylmer has increased its contributions and the grant has been conse- t in Duart. They have reduced their grant from S150tu $50, and expect to be self-supporting next year. PRESBYTERY OF SAHNIA. In tliis Presbytery there are seven augmented congregations. With the exception of Point Edwards, all of these are nearly self-sustaining, and may be expected to become so shortly. Appendix No. 1. lix. I'UESI'YTEKY OF HUKO-V, Grand Bend and Corliott arc much in the same position as last year. It was lioped that Corbctt would show some advance this year. This hope is still cherished. Bayfield and Bethany, as well as Lceburn and Union Church, Goderich Township, are now vacant, and an earnest effort is being made by the Presbytery to effect a re-ar- rangement of the whole tield so as to save if possible the augmentation grant, but tlic ditticulties in the way are such that the division of the field ia likely to remain as it is. TKESBYTEUY OF BKICE. Wc have at present two augmented congregations within our bounds. These may reiiuirc aid for some time to come. One has lost largely by families removing to tlie North-West. The other covers one of the poorest parts of uur country. PRESBYTERY OK ALGoMA. In this Presbytery there are three augmented congregations. Tlu)ugh it cannot be reported that any of them have made a decided advance financially during the past year, yet in each case there seems reason to look forward hopefully. At SauJt Ste. Marie the general depression which has existed in the town lias affected the prosperity of the congregation. But as there arc now prospects of better times and an increasing population, it is believed that tlie congregation will soon be able to advance and to rise above the need of a supidement. Sudl'iirij has suffered from the closing of the mines during the winter and conse- (|uent removal of many of the people. This drawback, however, is but temporary. The congregation has built a good manse for its minister, and it is hoped will soon be able to increase its contributions for supfjort. LMIr Carrent, not numerically strong, has been struggling biavely to wipe out its old indebtedness and to get fairly on its feet. In this effort it is likely soon to succeed. In all three congregations good work is being done ; but for the presetit each requires a supi)lement. Without this they would have to go back to the position of mission stations. This Presbytery earnestly liopes that the strong congregations of the Church will accord to the Augmentation Fund their iiearty and liberal support, and thus give valuable help to the weak. SYNOn OF MANITOBA AND Tllll NOHTH-WEST. By the erection of the Synod of British Columbia there are left only five Presbyteries in this Synod. At the date of last rejKn-t there were twenty-three augmented congrega- ti'ins in these Presbyteries. Of tliese, three, Trehorne and Holland in the Presbytery of Brandon, and Moosomin in the Presbytery of Regiiia, became self-sustaining. llhith- /('(■/(/, weakened by emigration, was placed on the mission list. Marrhujinirtif was divided and placed on tlie same list, and lioacilalc was reduced also to the status of a mission. SclUrh, which had, by mistake of I'resbytcry, been removed, was replaced on the augmented list. The congregaticms placed on the list during the year were Springfield (for one year). Crystal City, Killarney, Elkhorn and Franklin. Tliis leaves 23 on the list as last year. Connected with these 23 congregations are 63 stations, with 27 churches and 7 Ix. Appendix No. 1. nmnscH.

The congregations gave for stipend nearly twice the average given ]>y the Church, but tliey are loo weak, without the aid of this fund, to support pastors. That 11 congregations became self-sustaining during tho past two years, shows that the fund is not a hospital for incurables, but a refuge for help and encouragement.

The two congregatir)na to which grants were made from this fund were Chilliwack and Mt. Pleasant. Chilliwack was vacant during the Hrst half of last year, but since the settlement of the Rev. .F. A. Logan the people have become more entliusiastic, and expect to be self- sustaining in another year. This congregation is unusually small, and the contributions towards stipend are therefore unconnnonly liberal, being in the neighbourhood of §20 per connnunicant. The new church mentioned in last year's report as being in the pourse of erection by the Mt. I'leasant congregation, was completed a little more than a year ago, at a cost^ including site, <>f §2,800. Und 'r thts energetic jiastorate of Mr. McMillan the progress of this congregation has been so rapid that already they are confronted with the necessity of increasing their acconunodation. At their annual meeting in .January, the Mt. Pleasant ])eople decided not to take the full grant made to them by the Committee, but to become self-supporting from the beginnin;; of the calendar year.

The finaiiciiil stjitementa submitted, show a balance of .80,024.08 in favour of the Home Mission Fund, and a doticit of ^oG.TS in the Augmentation Fund. That there is no deficit in Missions is due, not to the increased contributions of congregations, but to donations and becjuests received during the year. While the Committee are devoutly thankful for this source of revenue, it can never, and should never, be depended upon. The expenditure this year for Home Missions has been over .SOS, 000 (exclusive of the amounts given by congregations directly, and the amounts raised by the Students' Societies). Next year, in view of the larger number of grants made to the North-West and British Columbia, and the necessarily increased expenditure, consequent upon the Summer Session in Theology in Manitoba College, it is safe to say hat at least !?75,000 will be required. This year, the North- West and British Columbia received .^39,522 for Missions,' Augmentation, etc., and in addition the sum of §5,000, was transferred by order of last General Assembly from the Home Missi(m Fund to the Manitoba Church and Manse Building Fund. That our Church has secured such a hold of the North-West that demands such an outlay, is cause for rejoicing, but it calls for largely increased con- tributions frcmi congregations, if the Committee are to meet their obligations. As regards Augmentation, in spite of reiterated appeals in difJ'erent ways, there has been for several years an average deficit of about $4,000. But for the .88,000 of Mrs. Nichol's legacy, received last year, and an additional $2,000 raised otherwise, a very large reduction in the grants would necessarily have been made. This year, notwithstanding that there was a balance to begin with of §2,488.94, there was a deficit at the close of §1,000. Your Counnittee submit tiiac there ought not to be the least dii'/iculty in raising the amount re(pured for augmentation. The sum is small (compared with that of the Home Mission Fund, which must of necessity increase year after year), while at the same time there is a very marked ami praiseworthy desire on the part of augmented congregations to beconit! self-sustaining at the earlit'st possible date. The General Assembly at its last meeting adopted the following resulution : " That the Committee be authorii^ed to reduce in March annually the grants for the half-year th(!n ending, so as tn equali/e the exiienditure anil revenue for the year. The Committee would therefore again notify Presbyteries, Missionaries, and augmented congregations, that while the gi'ants made are tlio amounts which, in the judgment of the Committee, are necessary for the etlicient working of the fields and Augmented congregations, this Conunitteo can only disburse the money placed at iLsdispn.sal l)y ihe L'hurcli, and uarnestly appeals to Tresbyteries to adopt means to secure largely increased contributions on behalf th, ISO,!, V Ixviii.

The Kastern Provinces of the Dominion cannot boast of rapid growth of popu!.ition ; but the spiritual wants of the people are not less on that account. Therefore, altiiough some of our mission fields are struggling with the difficulties incident to the sniallncss of numbers, the (Committee and the Presbyteries have striven all tlie harder to secure to them the boon of a pre; ehed (Jospel. Our agents have toiled faithfully, and ou the whole witii much encouragement, ia their work. Tlie details of each field are much the same as last year, and need not be repeated. A very important new tiel 1, however, was organized l)y the Presbytery of St. John, and occupied during the summer months by an ordained missionary, tlie Kev. E. J, Rattue. It is situated on the St. Francis, one of the tributaries of the River St. John. The people are engaged in lumbering and fanning,'. The Presljyterian ))opulation have come during past years from various parts of tiio Maritime Provinces, and made themselves homes in tliia new settlement. They have not heretofore enjoyed the preaching of the Gospel, by ministers of their own church. They gladly received a missionary during the summer, and showed their appreciation of his services by paying him in full. They built a church, and took steps towards the erection of two more tiiis year. I-XRURERS. The number of workmen was (1st) twelve ordained missionaries during the whole year, and twelve others during a part of it, their time of .service exteni!y agreed at the last meeting, to re(iuest the Assembly to refer the couaidera- ■ ion of this ([uiistion to the Synod of the Maritime Provinces, and give saiu Synod the power, hould it see cause, to emiiloy sucii an agent.

'.Ve see also i.uit only two Presbvteries. Pictou and Halifax, obtained what the Synod looked for from them, whilst all the others lell con.^iderably short. Fifty congregations recciveil grants from th" fund, amounting in all to S7,1'J0.47, S ■• 2 le.ss than the previous year. The total receipts wore $ ,983.68, anil e.N])cnditurcs S7,78l.66, leaving a balance of $2(i2.02 in favor of the fund, on the operations ot the year, and making the present working balance $3,68.^.ti4. There hn.s been an increase in local contributions to stipend, in tour Prosbyterie.s, amounting to $.17G.OO. Hesides ibis imreasc Cove Head in the Presbytery of Prince F.dward Island has gone off the fund and added .? 100 to the amount forineily paid their mini>tfr, and Brooktlcld, in the same Presbytery, by a union with New (llasgow, bus become self suj)i)ortiiig ami saves the fund S.lOO. Two congregations previously reported as having gone otl" the fund, have been received again ns in need of grants. < )n(' of these is New (Carlisle, in the Presbytery of Miiamichi, c' ^ern- ing which a premature report of its ability to stand alone was made to the Committee a yen .igo, but was corrected at the metting last October, when a grant in its aid was made, whicii will 11 Appendix No. 3. probably require 1.3 be continued for n while. The other is Noel, in the Presbytery of Halifax, which throngli the generosity of an absent friend ihnt has now passed away, was enabled to relieve the fund for two or thren years It has again gone on the list of assisted charges ; but hopes are entertained that it will not lonsr remain there. Tlicrc are however eleven congregations now pelf- supporting that for a time received aid from the fund. The reduced expendiiure of last year is iicconiitcd for by the vacant state of several of the Augmented Charges during the whole or a part of the year, makinir the draft on their account con- siderably smaller than it otherwise would have been. The Couiinitiee deeply regret that sueh a cause should put their funds in a flourishing coniiltion, and fervently pray that pastors may poou be secured for all the fields, and that next year the income will so increase as to meet a largely increased expsnditure. The church must be prepared to continue its liberality to this fund ; for, while there are a few congregations that have been receiving aid from the first thai ought to be self-sustaining, and upon whom it is hoped the duty of putting forth every efTurt to free the church from unnecessary burdens, will be strongly urfcii by J^resbyterie.*, so that from year to year there may be a reduc- tion in the grants bestowed on them ; there are also a number of others so situated that, if Presby- terianism is to be maintained among them, they must continue to receive large grants for years to come. Then there will necessarily be, with the growth of the church, some new congregations almost every year, that will reiiuirc aid for a time. It is hoped, therefore, that there will be no disposition manifested to fall back from the good stand taken in regard to this scheino in the past years of its history. Acting on the authority given to them by Inst Assembly, the Committee in October made the following grants : — Pnslii/lfri/ of Si/dnri/ . Cape North — Arrears having been paid and pastoral tie dissolved, the old grant to the close of the pastorate was made, viz $200 00 Prt'shi/teri/ of IJalifo.r. Musquodoboit Harbor 250 00 Pie.shi/teni of ^t. .John. Bocabec and Waweig — At old rate to close of pastorate, viz 189 00 Hampton, ic 150 00 J'reshi/teri/ of Mirumiilii. Tabusintac, &c.— Arrears having been paid, grant tu close of pastorate at old rate 180(10 New Carlisle, &c 1 50 00 Tiicro were 4.3 ar'ilications for aid before the Comniittee n; »^lie April meeting, and intimations that 8 or 10 more may be forwarded dnritig the year, (iran - wire made to .'17, amounting to $G,40".()(), anil the remainn. i- for one lanso or other were ileferred till the fall.

Tiic appeal to the people, promised in last report, for the removal of the (lei)t was duly made, and resulted in the payment of $5,252.81, being .fGdO-Bo more than the actual debt as reported last year. 'I'lu! way having thus been made clear for the increase of the teaching staff, the Board carefully considered what it was best to do in that direction ; and agreed to recommend to the Synod of the Maritime Provinces, that Robert A. Falconer, M. A., B. U., a Licentiate of the Church, be appointed Lecturer iu New Testament Kxegetics, at a salary of IJISOO.OO per inniuMi, for three years, and that further action with a view to the appoint(nent of a professor to the chair be deferred till the close of the third season. The Synod heartily accepted iho proposal, and the appointment of Mr. Falconer as lecturer for the three years was formally made He wi.s ordained by the Halifax Presbytery, and entered on his work at the beginning (if last session. He has already shown himself well worthy of the confidence reposed in him. This appointment enabled the Senate to rearrange to some extent the course of study, and to give more attention to the training of the students for the practical work of the ministry tliau had iutheno been possible. The Kndownieiit Fund of the College is $116,939.57, and is invested as follows : — Bank Shiires «!4S,.'5()8 00 Debentures l.'i.Sl 1 73 .\lo .'>^" ^r^'^^ '%" '^S' /» Photographic Sciences Corporation 33 WEST MAIN STREET WEBSTER, N.Y. 14S80 (716) 873-4503 \ (V ^^ i?y° ^^ > il Appendix No. 4.

With excellent premises and fair equipment, with a large and yearly increasing body uf students, with an attached and sympathetic constituency, that is wakening up to the indis- pensable importacce of the College to ihe advancement of the Church in the Provinces by the sea, the Board heartily thank God for the work and growth of the past, and with high hopes go on to the future, assured that He, who gives pastors and teachers, will not withhold His blessing from an institution that honestly seeks to train tliem for His service. The Senate's Report is herewith presented. DANIEL M. GORDON, Chairman. P. M. MORRISON, Secretary. , \ REPORT OF THE SENATE. During the past term which, all in all, may be regarded as the most successful in the history of the institution, the ti.ttendance of students was exceptionally large. Nine students were of the senior year, six of the middle year, and twenty of the first and second depart- ments of the junior year, — in all thirty-five. During the term several cases of illness occurred, not, however, more than ordinary ; but we deeply regret having to record the death of Mr. H. C. Dickson, a member of the first division of the junior year. The appointment of the Rev. Robert A. Falconer, B. D., to the Lectureship of New Testament Exegetics has proved an unqualified success. His scholarly and painstaking efforts, and his enthusiasm in the conduct of his classes, have been highly appieciated, while his residence in the institution has materially aided in making the various meetings of the students both pleasant and profitable. In consequence of the enlargement of the teaching staff more aLtention than formerly was devoted to "Practical Training." Each teacher endeavored, so far a possible, to give a. practical turn to his prelect'ons, and it is hoped that thus students have been benefited and the Synodical injunction fully carried ont. At the close of the session the honorary degree of Doctor of Divinity was conferred on the Rev. Thomas Sedgwick, the well known pastor of Tatamagouche. The following is a brief summary of the work accomplished during the term : — APOLOGETICS AND SYSTEMATIC THEOLOGY. The class of Apologetics was attended by eight students, Fisher's Grounds of Theistic and Religious Belief was used as a text book throughout tlie course, also some chapters in laaao Taylor's Transmission of Ancient Books. The subjects treated were Natural Theology, Appendix No. 4. Ill the strength of documentary attestation for the Scriptures as compared with that for the remains of Greek and Latin literature, the credibility of miracles, and the evidences of the truth of the Christian Religion, external, internal and experimental. The class of Systematic Theology was attended by fourteen students, eight of whom belonged to the senior and six to the middle year. The principal subjects of the course were the nature and attributes of (iod, the Trinity, the Divine plan of the universe, the creation of the world and of man, Providence, the Fall, sin and its consequences. An hour was given, fortnightly, to a literary study of the Book of Genesis with a view to testing current theories respecting its cimposition. Homilies and polemical theses, twelve in all, were given in by senior students. Examinations were held as usual. II. HEBREW AND (). T. EXEGETIC9. The junior Hebrew class, which consisted of eight students of the second division of the junior year,- met five times a week, and during the Session went through Davidson's Grammar with progressive exercises in reading and writing. As usual, special attention was devoted to a thorough grounding in the elements of tlie language. For example, the c»use of divergence from the typical form of the verb was indicated, and so far as possible the principles under- lying grammatical usages were stHted and illustrated — Vocabularies were memorized and sentences translated — Hebiew into English and English into Hebrew. The aim has always been to lay a solid basis fr>r the knowledge of a, language which is every year claiming higher recognition in the curriculum of our theological schools. The class of senior Hebrew and Old Testament Exegetics, composed of the fourteen students of the middle and senior years, also met five times a week. A text book on Hermen- eutics was used on Mondays ; Tuesdays and Thursdays were devoted to Hebrew Exegesis ; on Wednesdays a course of lectures was delivered on Heimeneutics ; and on Fridays a course on the Minor Prophets. Thus, two days a week were given to Hernieneutics. Cell^rier's text book was ueed, and the course of lectures was so framed as to be largely supplementary. The work in Hebrew Exegesis, occupyiug two days a week, consisting in reading the principal Messianic Psalms and selected portions from Isaiah, followed by exegetical lectures. The Friday course of lectures, which dealt with nine of the minor prophets, treated such subjects as authorship, date, analysis, theology of writers, and homiletical aid furnished by these books. Here, in one word, the ordinary questions in O. T. Introduction were discusned, and an effort was made to indicate the way in which this interesting portion of Scripture might be utilized in the pulpit. The students of this class prepared Greek and Hebrew Critical Exercises on passages previously prescribed. These were read and criticised in class. Selections were read irom the Aramiean portions of D.".n>el and the Targums of Onkelos and Jonathan. In this class, in accordance with the injunction of Synod, a short time was devoted to the subject of practical training, when a series of five lectures was given on pastoral experience. On all the work performed in both classes of this department two written examinations were held with satisfactory results. Ill, CHURCH HISTORY AND PASTORAL THEOLOCJY. The general history of the Christian Church from the Reformation to the present time was the principal subject of study in the class of Church History. Together with this, Scottish Church History was studied on two days of each week. Particular attention was directed to the hit-tory of the early Celtic Church. Scottish mediteval Church History was treated cursorily as less important, — the history from the Reformation to the first Episcopacy, with more minuteness. In Homiletics, lectures were given and examinations were held on two days in each week. The sermons and lectures which formed part of the exercises of this class were read anc criticised as usuai. IV. NEW TESTAMENT EXEdETICS. The work of this department consisted of three main divisions : Exegesis, New Testament introduction, and Textual Criticism. In the ciruinstances it was necessary to deliver the same course of lectures on Exegesis to both senior and junior classes. The Epistle to the Galatians, with the relevant parts of Acts, was read during the first half of the session, and attention was drawn to the condition of the Church and the phases of doctrine represented in this letter, which belongs to the earlier period of Paul's missionary activity. In the latter half of the session the Epistle to the Ephesians was studied as being one of the latest and most difficult of the Apostle's writings. The text was treated with a fair degree of minuteness, and every aid was used that could ne derived from Introduction and historical setting. In addition to this, Dods's Introduction to the New Testament was taken by the seniors as a basis for the study of the Introduction to the Gospels, and was supplemented by a course of lectures on the Synoptic problem and the Johannine question in their most recent developments. With the Juniors, Textual Criticism took the place of N. T. Introduction, and half of Warfield's Textual Criticism was read by the class in a series of weekly examinations. As occasion offered, differences between classical and N. T. Greek were noted, and the causes and course of the change were discussed in^^n opening lecture. IT Appendix No. 4. * V. ELOCUTION. - The Rev, James Carruthers gave instruction in Elocution for five weeks, four days a week. The total number of students in attendance was twenty-six. The Junior Class, consi'iting of ten members, studied the physical basis of voice, respii ation, the physiology and anatomy of the vocal apparatus, &c. Besides the exercises in the text book, selections were read from several books of the Old and New Testaments. The Senior Class, attended by ten students, reviewed the work of last year, and had their attention devoted to the application of the rules and principles of speech. Once a week a lecture was deivered on aids to power in discourse. In addition to the exercises in the text book, this class read the Epistle to the Hebrews, parts of the books of Kings, the Psalms (prose and metrical versions), and selections from our church hymnal. Six members of the graduating class met two hours a week, and had, as a special study, the several church services. Instruction was given regarding the proper manner of conducting baptism and the Lord's Supper, also the marriage and burial services. PRIZES AND BCRSARIES. The Morrison Prize of $12 was awarded to A. J. McDonald, B. A., for examination in Hebrew. The VViswell Elocution Prize of $7.50 for the best reading pf the Scriptures was awarded to A. M. Thompson, and Mr. Carruthers' Prize of $6 to P. M. McDonald. THE LIBKARV. Although during the year the library hasljeen receiving contributions, just now it requires means to enlarge the department of modern theological literature. In this connection, how- ever, it may be mentiooed that the College Board has recently taken this matter into con- sideration, and, as a firsi effort, has voted to the library an appropriiition of $150 for immediate expenditure. REVIEW. In reviewing the work of the Session, then the Senate has cause to ihank God and take courage. A contrast of the present state of the college with what it was twenty years ago, a time of darkness and great discouragement, aftbrds sure ground for the beiief that this institu- tion has yet much to do in supplying a ministry to these sea provinces, and in sending laborers to the regions beyond.

The SeMRinn wan (ii)uned with an adinirahle lecture on " HiKher Education, and its Uelation to the MaiiHeM, "in the Convocation Hall, on TueHilay evening;, the 4th November, by I'rofesDor Crockett, At. A. At the cloRe of the lecture the deKree of l^.D. was conferred upon the liev, James Whitelaw, U.A. This in the first B.I), degree given by that institution. In the ArtR Department thirty-iix students have been enrolled in the various classes, twenty- Kve of these taking the full course of study for the B.A. degree as re{uired by McUill ITni t^orsity, to which Morrin College is attlliated. Three students graduated in Arts, viz. : Margaret Macadam, Ethel Gale, and Edward J. ('hambers ; Margaret Maciulam taking first class general standing in all the subjects and a spxcial prize of ^"iO. The Governors are pleased to report that nine students are carrying on their studies with a view to the ministry of our Church, and that three of these finished their course of instruction this spring, and are now licensed to preach the Gospel. As a matter of fact, two of the young men are already settled and the third is under call. The students who completed their Theological course are : John Buchanan, E. S. Logie, and J. A. Tanner, B.A. But for the existence of Morrin College it would be very difficult indeed to supply our rural parishes with (lospol ordinances, as probationers from the west do not seem inclined to settle in those localities. Throughout the Session vacant congregations and Mission Stations within a radius of forty or fifty miles from tiuebec were supplied by Divinity students, and thus through Morrin College the means of grace were furnished to little knots of Protestants who would otherwise have been without a preached Gospel. The Governors have appointed the l{ev. K. MacLennan, M.A., of Levis, and llev. D. Tait, B. A., of Quebec, to give assistance in the departments of Ecclesiastical Polity and Homiletics next Session. The lectures on Apologetics by Rev. Dr. Campbell, of Renfrew were much appreciated, and he has been igain requested to act ns Lecturer next year. In reference to finance, the Governors request to state that the income of the College is far below its rerpiirements, so that its work is carried on amid many difficulties. It will be seen from the financial statement that 3:<,000 had to be borrowed to meet the expenses of the past Session, but various causes conibine to render present efforts in this direction exceedingly difficult, • iji. In conclusion, the Governors cannot help expressing the hope that tne General Assembly may encourage their professors and students by a cordial expression of sympathy with the important and difficult |)ositii>n they occupy. Feeling that generous benefactions and endowments could nowhere lie more beneficially bestowed, they earnestly appeal to wise and liberal friends of the Church and education to aid them in providing a liberal and thorough university and theological training in this stronghold of Roman Catfiolicism.

The Trustees respectfully submit the following report of the fifty-second session : — I. — Attbnuanob. The total number of students registered was 444, viz., in Arts 289, in Law 4, in Medicine 124, in Theology 26. Allowing for those registered in more than one Faculty the number is 432. Of those in Theology the following were in the third or final year : S. S, Burns, B.A. ; John A. Black, B.A. ; William Black, B.A. ; D. G. S. Connery. B.A. ; Charles H. Daly, B.A. ; L. M. England, B.A. ; James Hodges, B.A, ; James Madill ; John W. Muirhead, B.A. ; Neil McPherson, M.A. ; T. J. Thompson. The work of the session was done with the usual spirit. Rev. James Boss, B.D., Lecturer in Church History, having been appointed Professor in the Presbyterian College, Montreal, a course was not given on this suDJect ; but " The Beformation " was studied, in connection with a conference of graduates that was held during the session and which was found so profitable that it will probably be repeated at suitable intervals. The students continue to manifest a warm religious spirit that elicits the commendation of all with whom they come in contact. II.— Financial Statement. We are still obliged to call attention to our serious deficit. Fart of this is to be credited to the Arts and part to the Theological department. The minimum of $4,000, which we have so lon^' expected from the General Assembly's College Fund, is not forthcoming, though every year shows a slight improvement on the preceding. Until this minimum is reached, it will be impossible to con- sider any addition to our staif , although, if we count our Chair of Oriental Languages with the Faculty of Arts, as is done in the universities ot McGill and Toronto, Queen's has only two professors in the Theological De|jartment. We rejoice that Knox and Montreal are more fully equipped and hope that our turn shall come next. Committ the electi to ascertt In 1873, t some plat Church."

Macdonnell, seconded by Ur. Moore, became the unanimous finding of the House, — '"The Assembly receives and adopts the report, and in doing so, calls the attention of the trustees of Queen's University to the desirableness of bringing the Theolo^iciil Faculty of the University into closer relation to the Church, and re(iue8ts them to consider this matter with a view of suggesting, if possible, some modification by which this end may be secured, and to report the result nf such consideration to the next General Assembly." The Trustees are exceedingly gratified at the action taken by the Assembly and they occept it as indicating a growing interest in Queen's. Queen's was brought into existence by the action of tlie Church in 183!). At tli: time in Upper Canada, the common schools were few and poor, and scarcely any provision had Iwen made for higher education. A University had been chartered in 1827, but no professors had been appointed, and tests and other restrictions remleitd it impossible for the great body of the people to accept it, with preservation of their self-iesotci.. After years iif discussion, the Synod which represented the whole Presbyterianism of Upper ami Lower Canaila, resolved in July 1830. to delay no longer, and instructed the Committee to begin an Institution in Kingston. The Commission met in Hamilton in November, and after full ccmsirleration decided to establish not merely a theological school, but a University, and a University to be open to every one " on the same terms." Dr. Bell, at the time a student under the charge of the Presbytery cif Hamilton, tells us that this resolve to abolish religious tests was distasteful to some of the oliler members, but they waived their objections and a new era in College life began. A Koyal Charter was obtamed for the University on Oct. 10, 1841, and classes were opened in March following. The Charter shows what the views of the Church of that day were with regard to the relation of the University to the Church. The Government was entrusted to a Board of Trustees, twelve of whom were to be clergymen appointed by the Synod, and fifteen laymen appointed from a list of persdns nominated by the congregations (m the roll of the Synod. This Board a))pointed the Professors in all the Faculties, and the Church was so satisfied with it, that in 1872, the Synod instructed iti< STATJ-: Temporalities The Profossoi Kingston Obi Ivent of Drill Kent of (Jrou Fees, Class a Fees for Hxa; Interest on M Oeneral Assel Chuif Receipts for L Interest on jl Balance Defi/ ii Appendix No. 7. 11. Committee on Union to notify the other Committees triiat "this Synod has a decided preference for the election of Tlieological Professors by Governing Boards instead of by Church Courts, and desires to ascertain how far the views of the other neRotiating Churches are in accord with the preference." In 1873, the Committee reported back to the Synod that with regard to this subject, "it is probable some plan retaining the best features of both systems will meet with general favour in the United C'huron." After the Union, the Supreme Court of the Church ceased to appoint Tnistees, and the Board became self-perpetuating. In that respect, the relation of Queen's to the Churchy was no longer as close as it hau been. It is gratifying that the General Assembly should now unanimous!}'- express a desire to bring the Theological Faculty into closer relations. The Trustees, on their part, desire to meet the wish of the Church, and at the same time preserve the spirit of the Charter. The Charter provides " that the statutes, rules and ordinances enacted by the Trustees, in so far as they regard the duties of the Professors in the Theological Department, and studies and exercises of the students of Divinity therein, shall be subject to the inspection of the Synod." That was always attended to, and at present the rules and forms of prococfure governing the education and superintendence of students for the Ministry adopted by the General Assembly are duly observed by the Theological Faculty of Queen's. It seems evident to the Trustees that the spirit of this section of the Charter requires that no one should be appointed a professor in the Theological Department who might be considered unsuitable by the Church, and therefore that such appoint- ments should be reported to the next Assembly after they were made, and be subject to its veto. The Trustees see no objection to such a modification of the Charter. The Trustees thus respectfully submit to the Assembly a method by which the end desired may be secured, and, in doing so, they think it allowable to call attention to the acknowledged fact that they have carried out the will of the Church since the Union as faithfully as they did when api'.ointed to their trust in accordance with the provisions of the charter. They are under ^^acred obligations to carry on the work commenced under almost unparalleled difficulties by those who laid the foundations of the University and as far as possible in the spirit and according to the views of these noble men. The Presbyterians in Canada at that time numbered only about one hundred thousand souls. Most of them were clearing the forest and struggling for a livelihood. But they knew that " man lives not by bread alone." They felt the importance of a thoroughly educated ministry and they believed that the education which fitly prepares for the study of Divinity prepares equally well for every other profession and calling in life. Ah Christians they believed that the religions and general interests of a country are inseparable. Therefore they willingly made sacrifices, and their heirs and successors, the Presbyterian Church in Canada, are pledged to continue their work in the lofty spirit by which they were animated.

In addition to this it is known that there are about 20 others who are attending University College, Toronto, with a view to entering the ministry of the Church. The total income from all sources has been §l!»,!)70.74, while the expenditure has amounted to §20,29L14. • The Board regret to observe that while the work of the College is increasing, the amount re- ceived from congregations for its support has decreased to the extent of $020.00, The Board have reason to believe that the deficiency, amounting last year to S320.40, has arisen from a misapprehension as to Uie financial condition of the College, occasioned by a nominal surplus being shown m a recent Report, This apparent excess of revenue arose from moneys remaining in the hands of the Treasurer at the time of the closing of his books for the year, and which onlv awaited the adjusting of liabilities already incurred and which more than exhausted this amount. To some extent the idea has prevailed that the Endowment Fund nearly meets the expenditure. Reference to the Treasurer's statement shows that this is unfortunately far from being the case, and that, as the rate of interest is steadily falling on all good securities, the income from that fund, unless it be largely added to, will show an increasing shrinkage. A few years since seven per cent, was readily obtainable, while now five and one-half and oven five per cent, are about the best rates which can be obtained on first-class mortgages. A reduction of one and a half per cent, on an invested capital of .^200,000 means a loss of $3,000 per annum on income account. Even if no progress were to be made in the development of the College, or no increase made in its staff, the College must continue to rely largely on the increased liberality of the Church. The Board regret to find that upwards of 300 congregations in our constituency con- tribute nothing to our Colleges. Now, the necessity of maintaining in a high state of efficiency a fully equipped Theologic.il Seminary in connection with University College, Toronto, continues to press itself on the attention of the Board. Tho importance of this is abundantly evident when it IS remembered that the Methodist, Episcoi)al and Baptist Churches are now maintaining suclt Seminaries in affiliation with the University, and that now no fewer than 310 Presbyterian students are in attendance at University College. The Board have had under their careful consideration the matter of the appointment of a per- manent officer or professor to take charge of the preparatory department in the College. They are quite unanimous in desiring that some gentleman of good scholarship and academic experience should be appointed to take charge of the literary education of such students as liave not had the benefit of a University course. So far the Board have been prevented by lack of funds from beint; in a position to suggest to the Assembly the name of any gentleman to fill this important position. In the meantime Mr, Logic, B. A., has been temporarily appointed as tutor. The Board trust that the Church will shortly place them in fumls to enable them to secure the services of some one who would be a permanent member of the Faculty. A marked increase in the contributions from congregations will be necessary to provide for this greatly needed improvement. The Board are desirous of obtaining and placing in the College some memorial of the late Mr. James McLaren. This gentleman during his lifetime contributed .'jr)O,OO0 to the funds of the College, and a bequest of $20,000_ for the library indicated his continued interest in its welfare. Tho Boarcl are unanimously of opinion that his conspicuous liberality should be specially commemor.'vted, and that the Church should signify its appreciation of the munificence of one who has manifested sucli generosity to the College, by nistructing the lioard to procure and have placed in the College a portrait of ono who was so liberal a Ixmefa^tor to the Institution. The Board cannot permit this occasion t.) pass without paying a tribute to the memory of Mrs. Fullarton, the wife of Mr. Fullarton, the lUeward of tiie College, During all the years of her connection with the College she matiif .iLed tho warmest interest in the welfare and comfort of the students. Her loss will be deeply 1 ilt. All of which is respectfully submitted. WM. MORTIMER CLARK, Chairman. Appendix No. 8. ii. REPORT OF THE SENATE OF KNOX COLLEGE : SESSION 1892-3. Theological Department.

West, B.A., Sidney Whaley, B.A., Jas. Wilson, \y. S. Wright. Of this list twenty-seven have completed the work of the first year ; the others have taken part of the work of the year in connection with the system of University options. Of this latter class some have attended lectures and passed examination in half the work of the year, with the purpose of completing the first year in Theology next session, while others have performed their work in Theology with the view of having it count in Arts only. The following is an abstract of the Class Reports : — Dr. Caven conducted the classes in Senior and Junior Exegetics and in Biblical Criticism. The Senior Kxegetical class heard lectures during the first term on Introduction to the four Gospels and the Acts of the Apostles, and expository lectures on the Pastoral Epistles. The second term was occupied in the critical study of Psalms 2, 8, 16, 19, 22, 23, 45, 72, 110, 132, with introduction to the Book of Psalms. In the Junior Exegetical class a series of lectures was given on Hermeneutics, and the follow- ing passages of Scripture were critically read, viz.: Gospel of John, ch. 1, and Acts of the Apostles chs. 1-4, in the first term ; and Genesis, chs. 1, 2, 3, 6, 11, 18, in the second term. The worlc pre- scribed for examination embraced six chs. of the Acts and two chs, of p]xodus, in addition to the ground covered by lectures in the class. As in former years. Biblical criticism was taught partly by lecture and partly by text book. Each student of the third year prepared a Hebrew critical exercise, and each student of the second year a Greek critical exercise. These exercises were privately examined, and criticisms of them written out for the benefit of the student. Dr. i>regg conducted the classes in Church History. To the students of the first year lectures were delivered on the history of the Church from A.D. 33 to 7S7 ; and to the students of the second .ind third years on the history of the Church in Europe from A.D. 787 to 1530, Dr, (xregg also examined and criticised the Homilies prepared by the first year's students, on texts prescribed to them. As in former years Dr. Gregg laid the College under obligation by conducting a class in mathe- matics, which was attended by the students of the first year in the preparatory course. Dr. Maclaren conducted senior and junior classes in Systematic Theology. To the senior class (second and third years) he lectured five hours weekly. During the second term one of these hours was devoted to the Confession of Faith. The topics dealt with were : The Kingly Office of Christ, Ktfect\ial Calling, Justificatihn, Sanctification, Good Works, the Moral Law, the State of the Soul after Death, the Second Advent, the Resurrection of the Body, the General Judgment, and Future Rewards and Punishments. Chs. 20-25 of the Confession of Faith were studied, and Hodge's " Outlines," pp. 428-()r,0. The Junior Class (first year) heard lectures four hours weekly. The subjects discussed were : Justification, the Rule of Faith, the Attributes of God, the Trinity and the Decrees of God, and chs. 1-3 of the Confession of Faith. Hodges " OutlinesJ" pp. (')5-ia!) were studied. The Second Year were examined on Fairbairn on " "The Revelation of Law in the Scripture" at the close of the Session. Professor Thomson reports that in Old Testament literature two lectures weekly were delivered to the second and third years' students, in which a large portion of the Historical books of the Old Testament was considered. An additional weekly lecture was delivered to the third year's students on the poetical literature. In Apologetics two lectures, weekly, wore delivered to the second year's students. During the first term these dealt with Comparative Religion, and during the second with Modem Doubt ; portions of Farrar and Christliob being read therewith. Four lectures weekly were delivered to the students of the first year on the Evidences of Natural and Revealed Religion, in connection with which were read Flint's " Theism," and Fisher's " Grounds of Theistic and Christian Belief." A short course was also given on the Canon of the Old Testament. Dr. Froudfoot conducted the class in Homiletics. He delivered fifty-seven lectures in Sys teniatic Homiletics, being three lectures weekly during the session, and forty-five lectures in f ♦ ■ ' t h in. Appendix No. 8. Practical Hotniletics, being two lectures every week. Forty-seven discourse!) were delivered, in whole or in part, by students ; two students, selected in rotation, being associated with Dr. Proutl- foot in studying and criticising the discourses. Earnest endeavours were made to familiarize the students with fundamental rhetorical principles, which must underlie all effective, persuasive speaking. Dr. Proudfoot would be glad to impart practical homiletic instruction to all the students, whe- ther in the Theological or the Preparatory Department It is believei that such instruction would be of great value to students of the Preparatory Course, in fitting them for the Homo Mission field, as well as in qualifying them for receiving regular teaching in the Humiletical Class when they shall enter Theology, A class in Elocution, attended by all the Theological students, was taught by Mr. Mounteer. Prepabatohy Dkpartment. The students in the Preparatory Department were the following; — Thiko Year.— W. P. Anderson, R. F. Cameron, 11. T. Cockburn, \V. C. Dodds, J. T. Hall, .T. D, Jeffrey, George Milne, W. M. AlcKay, W. A. MacLean, H. A. McPherson, J. E. Iladford, ,r. G. Keid, G. S. Scott, VV. C. Tate. J. K. Wilson. Second Year.— George Duncan, W. B. Findlay, M. J. Leith, E. Mason, J. B. Torrance. First Year.— William Bell, J. R. Elmhurst, W. H. Farrer, W. N. Ferguson, W. J. McBean, W. A, McKay, VV. D. McPhail, Thomas Oswald, H. W. Porter, Geo. Scarr, William Wallis. The tutors in the Preparatory Department were : in English, Mr. James Wilson, B.A. ; in Latin, Mr. H. F. Thomas, B.A.; and in Greek, Mr. W. R. Mcintosh, B.A. In English the students gave earnest attention to their work, though in some cases the final examination seems to show a lack of thoroughness in reading. In the second year two of tiie students came below the average in regularity of attendance, but the work done by moat of the second year's class was good. The w6rk taken up in the senior class (second and third years) was : yl « interest in the College and its students was known to us all. The Rev. Thomas Fenwick, to whom the College owes the Janet Fenwick Prize, has signified his purpose to establish, hy the gift of $100, a prize of like value in memory of his father, John Fenwick, whose name it will bear. The prize will be offered for work of an apologetical character. Appendix No. 8. iv. After fourteen yearn of devoted service to the College, Mra. Fullarton died in December last. Her faithfulness in the dischari^e of important duties could nut be exceeded ; and her reKnemunt in character and manners told beneKcially in all tliat concerned the residence. She was a true friend to the students, and in any case of illness watched with the tender care of a mother. Both profett- sors and students will cherish her memory with respect and affection. The decree of Doctor of Divinity has been conferred upon the Kev. E. N. Grant of Orillia, Ont., and the Itev.

This, the Board hope, is to be regarded as a proof of in- creased interest in the College, under the changed circumstances in which it is, by direction of the General Assembly, carrying on its work in the Department of Theology. The total receipts for the Ordinary Fund, including 81,677.03, tlie balance in hand at the beginning of the year, have been .Siri,917.97, which includes .S.5,M20 for class fees and board of stu- dents. In this item there is an increase of .S5(i7, chiefly on account of fees, as during the first months of the last sessiim tho residence was not occupied by students The expenditure has been S15,.373.50, leaving Sl,r>44.47, as the balance in hand. The payments for salaries of Professors and Tutors, not includmg the salary of the Principal, were S7,95(), as compared with $6,767.70 during the year before. The legacy of .?20, 000 left to the College by the late James Maclaren, Esq., of Buckingham, was received during the year, tho representatives of the estate having, in the most generous manner, paid it over before the time named in the will for payment arrived. The Endowment Fund now amounts to .?45,7ir(, of which 818,18.5 is invested upon mortgages, and 96,100 is lying upon deposit awaiting the finding of suitable investments. The remainder of the Fund has been temporarily used for making payments in connection with the new building. In this way a heavy liability for interest has been escaped. The enlargment and re-modelling of the College building, the commencement of which was reported last year, have been practically completed, and the College has now a handsome, commo- dious, and in every way comfortable buiding m which to carry on its work. By both professors and students the advantages of the new and well- ventilated class-rooms have been heartily appreciated and the improved dormitories have greatly increased the comfort of resident students. There is now suitable accommodation for about 50 residents. It was not until the end of November, that the building was so far completed as to be fit for occupation, and from .September up to that time the classes met in rooms connected with Knox Church, for the use of which the Board tender their tlianks to the trustees of that Church. The amount subscribed to the Building Fund up to this date has been •834,641, and on account of this (including balance on hand last May) 817,534.12 has been paid. The amount paid over to contractors for the building, on account of seating class-rooms, furnishing students' rooms, and other expenses, has been up to the time of closing the accounts, 836,755.67. For the expenditure over and above the amount received on subscriptions, the Endowment Fund has been temporarily drawn upon, but it is the aim of the Board to have, if possible, all debt upon the building paid off within the present year. Considerable further payments have still to be mad(^, and the total cost of, and connected with, the improvements will be about $44,000. In addition to the subscriptions mentioned above, friend" of the College undertook to furnish some of the students' rooms, and 14 were in this way provided 'or. Nino rooms were furnished by friends in Winnipeg, and five by friends outside the city. On the Presbyterians among the nublic school teachers in the city, and for tV the Board are indebted to the kindness of a few friends, members of the C Winnipeg. In conclusion the Board desire to express their entire concurrence in, and sympathy with the opinion of the Senate as set out in the Report with reference to tlie work done by the Professors and Tutors during the past Session, and as to the value and importance of the assistance given, and yet to be given by Principal Grant, Professors Maclaren, Scriniger and Thomson, (vnd the Rev.

The Senate of Mnnitobn College begs leave to Hubiiiit to the General Assembly the followin;,- report ret'unling the work of the year. In consequenue of the change instituted by last AH»«nibl,v in thi' time of the meeting of the Theological Classes, the report on this occasion must have reference mainly to the Arts' and Preparatory Departmentv of the College. Tm? numbor of pdpils enrolled in these departments has this soMsion betm 4 year than that which the Senate has had in report on any previous occasion. A comparison with the reix)rt last Assembly shows that the number in the Literary Department of the College is larger, by six, than that in attendance on both the Theological and Literary Classes of last year. The increase is so large, indeed, that it may possibly not be sustained another session. In the department of Arts, the list of students to the number of one hundred is as follows : — Seniob B. a. Ykar.— Lilian Ponton, Alice Ham, Isabella 1). Conklin, John L. Small, Alex- ander Douglas, James PuUar, John Davidson, J. Hossiick, John A. Urcjuhart, Albert E. <'ump, P. C. Cameron, J.

Taking prescribed Classes ; T. D. Acheson, C. McKibbin, W, Dickson, James Arthur, John S. Dobbin. The Senate does not think it necessary to give the names of the pupils in the Preparatory Department. It is somewhat larger than that of the previous aeasion, ana embraces again a fair proportion of students having the ministry in view. Most of them, it is hoped, will take a full Arts course before entering on the study of Theology. The Natural Science Department has been conducted during the past year in premises provided by the University of Manitoba ; Dr. Bryce taking the various branches of Biology, while the Pro- fessors of St. John's and Wesley College have taught the other portions of Science. This arrange- ment has been so far satisfactory, but it may be mentioned that the Government, with the full approval of the various Colleges, is taking Bteps to put this department of the University teaching on a new and more efficient footing. In the College Dr. Bryce has taken the subjects of Higher English, Ethnology and History. Professor Hart has taught the Classics and the French in the subjects both of the special and the general course. The students of the previous year to the number of seventeen, have likewise received instniction from him in the Classical and the P'rench work prescribed by the University for students of that year. Professor Baird lectured during the first part of the session to all the students in the senior and junior B. A. years, on Mill's Political Economy. He also throughout the whole session conducted the classes in Latin, Greek and French, of the preliminary year. Dr. King lectured daily throughout the session to the students in Philosophy, on the ethical works of Stewart, Janet, and mSidgwick's History of Ethics ; and in addition, twice a w«ek, to .11 the students in the senior and junior B. A. years, on Calderwood's Handbook of Ethics, He aiso i^ave instruction in German to the students in the Modern Language course, ar>' I to those in the lirevious preliminary and preparatory years. Mr. J. 9. Scott, B. A., a distinguished graduate of University College, Toronto, lectured daily on the History of Philosophy, and took in addition the Elementary Latin, Greek, and English classes. Mr. Scott also rendered the College important service in taking charge as Resident Tutor of the Residence. Owing to the retirement, reluctantly accepted, of Mr. A. M. Campbell, M. A., one of the early graduates of the College, who had served it with much fidelity and zeal for many years, H. H. Saunderson, B. A., another graduate of the Institution, was appointed to succeed him. Mr. S. has given entire satisfaction in conducting the English and Mathematical classes entrusted to him. The inter-collegiate work of instriiction between Manitoba and Wesley College, in operation for three yeare, has been continued, with benefit to both Institutions. One student of tnis College, taking the special Mathematical course, has received all his teaching in Mathematics in Wesley College. All the students in Wesley College have received their teaching in Philosophy and in the HigW Classics in Manitoba College, and for a part of the session in the Hopour work in English and French. Appendix No. 9. iii. In completing the renort regarding the Arts Department, the Senate JeHire* to bear testim my to the great advantage receiveci from iht enlargement ami renovation of tlie College building. IndKed, without the additional facilities thuH provicled, it would have been impossible to have carried on the work with either eiticiency or comfort, in view of the large accession of members. It may be mentioned as a gratifying indication of thx place which thr Collette holds in i)ublic estimaticm, that m the examina- tions of the University of Manitoba, just completed, ninety-tive students in attenilance in this Col- lege took part, a larger nundier than that going up from tho three other Colleges combined. The Senate has much pleasure in reporting triat the Summer Session arrangement for the Theo- logical classes promises thus far to be attendud with complete success. Twenty-seven students, nearly 1*11 of whom had occupied Mission fields during the winter months, with great advantage to the Church's work, reported themselves Tor entrance in the beginning of April. They are as follows :— Thiki) Ybar.— Frank Kussel, B.A., John Patterson, B.A., John Maxwell, P. H. McLeod. SKOo.vn Ykab.— J. S.

Richmond, VVm. Graham. Making deduction for names already included in the Arts course, this gives a total attendance in the College, including students in Theology, in the Arts and the Preparatory departments, of one- hundred and sixty-seven. The session for Theology was opened on the evening of April 4th, by a lecture by the Principal, on " Tho spirit proper to the study of Theology." The classes entered on their regular work the follow- ing day. For the present, tho class in Systematic Theology is taught by Professor McLaren of Knox College, and is attended by the students of the three years ; the class in Hebrew Kxegesis by Professor Scrimger of Montreal Presbyterian College, and is attended by the students of the secono 40 120 00 226 87 S!;«I7 27 RECKIPT8.

In presenting tliis Report to the General Assembly, the Board desires to express its jrratitude to Aliiiighty God for His manifest approval of the humble etForts of its laborers in the field of French Evangelization during the past year. In three Province'-, but chiefly in Quebec, has the work been carried on. Two pastors and finir niisi-ionary-colporteurs labored in Ontario; one pastor and two missionaries in New Brunswick; eigliteen pastors, twelve missionaries, seven inissionary-colporteurs and twenty- six teacliers in Quebec. Thirty-seven congregations and mission fields, with ninety-six preaching stations, wore supplied. Connected with these were six hundred and ninety I'rotpstant families. The average Sabbath attendance was about twenty-seven hundred and tifiy, of whom nearly one-quarter were Iloman Catholics. One hundred and ninety-tv iiiciiihers united with the church, making a total meiubcrship of nine hundred and eighty- four. Two new fields were occu])ied. Tlie people contributed about six thousand dollars; Seven hundred and sixty scholars attended the Sabbatii schools. Eleven colporteurs were omiiloyed, and sixteen hundred and seventy-four copies and portions of the Scriptures and alwut twenty-three thousand religious tracts and papers dislrituited. Twenty-five mission ilay-schools and four night-schools were attended by eight hundred and thirty-three scholars of whom three hundred and eighty-three were from Roman Catholic homes. The average daily attendance was four hundred and fifty-six. (Ten schools now self-supporting, but hp^un and fostered by the Hoard, are not included here.) One hundred and sixty-eight pupils attended the schools at Pointe-aux-Trembles, of whom eighty-seven were the children of Roman Catholic parents. One hundred pupils attended Colignv College, Ottawa. Fourteen French students prosecuted their studies in the Theological College, two of whom graduated and have been licensed since. The total number of laborers employed was eighty-nine. The total receipts forty-five thousand dollars. While one cannot measure am. tabulate the progress and force of an intellectual and spiritual movement, it is possible tt' trace it to some extent. An encouraging and inspiring fact is the almost universal testimony of our niissionarios that prejudice against themselves and their work is giving way, that a desire for knowledge is growing, and a determination openly or privately expressed to know the truth at any cost. A slowly-formed public opinion has at length confessed through the press and otherwise its want of faith in ecclesiastics and demanded reforms in the control an! management of educational and other matters. Journals that have had the courage of their convictions and criticized their spiritual leaders have been put under the ban and sutFered accordingly. As a consequence autioii for damages has been laid in the Superior Court against an Archbishop. Referring in this case the official organ of the Archbishop says : — " This sad event has left us, prii'stsand faithful, less under the feeling of legitimate indignation tlian of profound- sorrow. Some only see in this the consequences of weakness, ignorance or passion ; other sopiii to fear, ami not wiliiout reason, a calmly prepared revolt, and now irrevocably consum mated. Some see in it the act of only a small number of catholics without conviction and without fixed religious priiu'iples; others, on the contrary, see in wduit has occurred during the last few months the certain indication of a latent evil and the loud munifestatiou of pernicious tendencies, which threaten to spread more and more in our country. Whatever mav he the real cause of the scandal, not only the spirit of the faith, the laws of tiie church, and the voice of conscience, but common sense ami the personal interest of those who liave acted, demanded that it should l)e avidded Tiie duty of Catholics when they foel that they have been unjustly treated by an Archbishop is to appeal to Rome . . It is to this tribunal, and this tribunal alone, that one must appeal in spiritual and even temporal 11. Appendix No. 10. ;i'5 caben, wnen one feels that lie has been denied his rights by the first pastor of a diocese. To act otherwise and to bring up the bishops before the civil courts is to deny the inviolability of their persons, to practically deny the authority of the church and its jurisdiction over souls, to refuse to aamit its divine constitution, to expose one's self even to leave its bosom by schism, apostacy or at least to be cut from among its members by excommunication. Supposing even that Monseigneur the Archbishop of Montreal and his colleagues in Hie episcopacy had abused their jurisdiction and unjustly and arbitrarily applied their rights, they have no account to render either to the faithful, or to the civil authorities j they were not even obliged in pronouncing this condemnation to give the motive which served as a basis for their judgment." Another Roman Catliulic organ says: — "It is better, then, that the question be settled once for all. If the rigiu exercised by Archbishop Fabre be a real one, it is important for the church of Canada that the people should be informed in the clearest manner possible. But if that right he spiritual only, and if it be not recognized by the laws of the land, it is equally important tliat tiie members of the clergy should know it, so that, in future, they may adopt other means to preserve their flock from contagion." The decisions of canon law, although declared recently by a Canadian court to he above the law of the land, are being resisted in parishes where a few years ago would liave beer, unquestioning obedience. Notable examples of this are Maskinonge, where the leaders in the movement withdrew from the Romish Church, and were organized into an evangel- ical church in connection with the Baptist body, and Kamouraska, wlnre after a ten years struggle between the people and bishop a priest was appointed, as had been requested at first, by til c people, on condition that they " drive away the Protestant missionary," Thev did not drive away the Missionary but they have the priest. In refutation of clih,rc!es made by some leading Roman Catholic journals, that the Protestant missionaries had liecn permitted to hold services in the Church, because they had deceived the people l>y conforniini; to their rites, trustworthy men in the pari.sh, over their own names have stated, "That the Protestant missionaries who have visited us and preached in our chapel and in our homes have conducted themselves as gentlemen and Christians and true men of God ; they have done us good by their examples, their books and their preaching, and we shall ever remem- ber them for good. We declare it to be false that they ever said the roHary, for wo never neard them pray otherwise than after the manner of Protestnnts. We declare also tliat it' our bisl-.op had not hastened to send u.s a priest and if each had been free to follow iiis conscience many families among us would be Protestants to-day." Two or three famdies invite the missionary to their homes for Scripture reading ancf worship. Three heads of families in the adjoining parishes have since abjured the Cnurch of Rome. The formation of societies with which prominent laymen are identified, for active propagandism of Rome's teachings within and outside of the church, is worthy of mte Alive to the prevailing spirit of discontent and unrest, which seeks relief in emigration, tin Roman Catlu lie clergy are making common cau.se with the State, in the hope of correctiii;; matters, for the provision of inucli needed social and economic instruction, lie fornwition of farmers' clubs, and the establishment of secular working orders in dift'ereni parts o\ the Province. They are blind to the cause of this lamentable state of things whicli the contrast in almost any parish between the colossal church and convent and princely presbytery un one hand, and the neglected school-houses and bare homes on the other should suggest. But the ' heretic' is a ' neretic' still. By authority he is to be boycotted and persecuted. By obedience to this authority many misguided people think they do God service. Fearful of the same authority and worldfly loss thousands sympathize witn the 'heretic,' and many semi their children to his school. Thev remain in their Church— but as they say " don't believe all that the church teaches." The men and women of strong moral and religions convictions abandon the church of their fathers for the truth, and in so doing experience too often literally what it is" to leave father and mother, wife and child and lands, for my sake and the Gospel's." Thus it is that emigration, mostly to the United States, has almost depleted at times many of our rural stations and kept at a stand still our city congregations. This inu-st L* expected, for our converts, coming for the most part from the agricultural and artizan anl laboring classes, have to earn their daily bread. As in the beginning. " not many wise men after the flesh, not many mighty, not many noble are called." A comparison with last year's report will show how our congregations have sufiered in (his respect during the year. Of the nine hundred and forty families reported last year, one hundred and eighty-tive ari accounted for by the transfer of the coni;regation of Stc Anne, Kankakee, 111., to L'liicaju Presbytery. To emigration and removals isduea loss of over eighty families. Hence a gnai hindrance in the way of attaining a position of self-support on the part of our ctroiigir ongregations, and a frequent discouragement to the faithful and ambitious missionary. When the Protestant misHionary, some flfty-five years ago, turned to the evangeiizatioii of the French Canadian Roman Catholic population, numbering about six hundred thouseiiJ, | his means and resources were very limited. There was not a known Protestant Frencli Canadian The people were devotedly attached to the superstitions and teachings of Rome, Appendix No. 10. 111. Be began in the honiee, by teaching both pareiics ami children, ami conversing on religious subjects with the fathers of families. Tlie evening school was soon begun, in which the Bible was the reading book and often the only text book. In visiting from house to house he turned the conversation upon the Bible and Bible topics, rather than upon politics and kindred questions. In this way the light of the Gospel was carried into "the gross darkness that covered the people." With the light of the Gospel came life, which revealed itself in the awakening mind and conscience. Soon the influence of the mission schools was so felt that the Roman Catholic clergy were aroused to establish the little country schools. Tliey did it reluctantly. But in them pupils were taught at least to read. With knowing to read, came the necessity for something to read. Books were scarce then as good books are still. A few newspapers appeared. Some devoted to the interest of the lioman Catholic Churcli lived ; others aiming at the enlightenment and instruction of the people died, or dragged out a very precarious existence. Among the latter was the Semeur Canadien, the first organ of evangelical Protestantism. Jt did much good in its time and lielped to consolidate French Canadian Protestantism. It was followed by the Moniteur, which in turn was succeeded by L'Anrore, which still exists, and with the Uitoyen Franco- Americain, published at Springfield, Mass., represent French Protestantism to-day. During these years the Roman Catholic schools and press have been also developing. In the fifteen hundred and twenty-nine towns and villages of the Province, there are four flif ..sand one hundred and thirty Roman Catholics schooih, with an attendance of 223,000 scholars. But what of the results of these schools, afttr half :; century's clerical control of education in the Province ? Let Le Monde, a French Catholic organ, reply. "The other day, in order to defeat a bill excluding illiterate persons from school commissions, the Provincial Secretary declared that there were municipalities unprovided with persons able to read aii^". write. This is sad, this is shameful. Really, one can boast of our system of public instruction. .... it is fine, it is fruitful. Nevertheless, if anyone raises his voice to ask for reforms, an effort is made to stone him. There are in our midst men who are anxious to leave the French-Canadians in ignorance. These people are afraid, for, the day when all can read and understand what they read, there will be trouble in the camp and a grand sweeping off of abuses and privileges. F'rench-Canadian municipalities where no school commissioners able to read and write can be found 1 1 1 This is declared in open House, and no one rises to ask for an immediate revival of our school system." The French press is represented by ten daily and flfty-one weekly papers, having each an average subscription list, of somewhere about four thousand five hundred and three thousand live hundred respectively ; five humorous and illustrateil papers, and six recueils and reviews, devoted to literature or religion issued weekly or monthly. With scarcely an e.xception liiese publications, some from conviction, the majority from self-interest, court ecclesiastical authority. Independence is sacrificed for favors and if asserted, is stricken or slain outright by the all-powerful arm of the church. In such conditions the work has been carried on and results are to be seen ; 1. In a growing intelligence and appreciation on the part of the people of evangelical truth and corresponding giving way of prejudices. 2. In the desire, tacit or avowed, to break away from ecclesiastical authority and domination. ;i, In the thousands of Roman Catholics who read proscribed literature. 4, In the fifteen hundred pupils attending Protestant Mission schools. 5. In twelve thousand Canadians of French origin, wh.o attend evangelical places of worship in Canada. G. Ill the twenty-five thousantl French Protestants who have gone to the United States 7, In the fact that fifty-five years ago there was perhaps not a French-Canadian Protestant, to-day there is one for every sixty-seven of the French-Canadian Roman Catholic population in Canada and the United States ; there being one for every hundred and two in Canada and for every thirty-two in the United States. 8. In the election of French Protestants to chief municipal offices, and their holding tiie balance of power in three counties as was shown by the last election in this Province. A FOURTH AGENCY. After a great deal of consideration the Board has approved of a monthly publication, to bo issued as soon as a suitable nmn is available for this kind of work. This'wiil be not only I a ioDg-necded and invaluable adjunct to the work of the missionary, teacher and colporteur, but also an effective evangelizing agency, reaching persons and places with its messaj^e otherwise unreached. ■ I '■ iv.

Mr. Stanislas Tsiegei, Colporteur among the Huron Indians at Lorett(^ : — " F am well received among my people. I lend many tracts to both Indians and Canadians who come often tc see me. They come often a long distance to have me exjilain the tiosijcl for them." Sore!: Mr. ('. II. Vessot. This field, for years, had been unpromising. I'pon revisiting it lust spring, Mr. lionnenfant found three families ready to receive him and lie instructed in tlie Scriptures. Six years before he had given a New Testament to the head of one of these fiiiiiilies. This was the first fruits. During the winter, .Mr. Vessot, after visiting it, requested to work there. He writes : — '' I am much encouraged, and feel that it is the will of Uod that I should be here. During the month I have gone to I'lsle de Grace four times. There are nix families there that like to read the Gospel. .My father and I dispensed the communion to an old man, .Mr. Letendre, whom my father evangidized years ago. He is the father or (.'ramlfather of most of the i)eople on the island. There were twenty-seven present, all Roman Catholics, in spite of the bad roads. They were jileased to see that the grandfather hiid not been abandoned by the Protestants. The service created a deep impression upon tlieni. So much so that those with whom Mr. L. lives, and who did not seem to care for my former visits, now thank me and ask me to come back, These same people have gone to S|)end the evening at the house of a neighbor, in order to read books on coiitrover.sy which he lias. I'liis neighbor is very liberal, and has asked me to go and explain the ditVereiice between our religion and his. I have been there once, and spi:nt live hours giving explanations. Never did I spend a happier evening, which we brt)Ught to a close by prayer. Before leaving he md to me, ' Mr. V. you are welcome here at any time. The Cure tohl me to throw you out but I positively said I would not, and if he says that he will not give the communion 1 .■ihall tell him thiit my grandfather communed on bread and wine, and I shall do like liim.' There is every reason to hope for good results here. May God bless the work of our bauds. I have services regularly at Sorel, St. Robert, Isle de Grace, and once a month at «t. Judc." Montreal : Lacroix Church, Mr. Duclos. " The work ia evidently progressing as to nam' bers. I only wish we had more spiritual life. ''Among the losses were eight who were the most able and generous in giving, and whose religious inlluence was most deeply felt in the congregation. Twenty-four left the country. "We all feel very much the lack of sound reading matter. When every day in the week we see on the tables of our converts papers like Le J'resse, Lc Monk, kc, and wc have iiotliing but the pulpit and visits to undo the evil done by those papers, and rectify the impressions left by their attacks upon our faith." r:? '•3 VI, Appendix No. 10. rr:? L. Boiincnfant, colporteur : " I prayed and read thin month with twenty-two Roman Catholic families. I read the gOHpel with sixty-four, and spoke about the Bible and religion with one hundred and twelve Roman Catholic families. Many of them promised to nad the Bible for themselves. Sixteen R^man Catholics came to see me at my house and speak with me about the Bible. " I went with one of our families to see one of his friends at St. Ignace. One of tlu^ sons of tha family is studying for a priest and was at home. Wo had a gri'at discussion. Althmi};h very bigotted I read and prayed with them, and conversed on religion until eleven o'clock iil night. The young ecclesiastic was astonished to find that he knew so little, and ackiiow. lodged it. Nevertheless he said he believed his church was right, and would stay in it I pray fur that family that it may come to the truth. I told the young fellow that if he became a piicst and taught a false religion that he would be responsible before God, and that within lifty yotvrs if the Canadians did not accept the gospel liey will follow the people of France, aiul become infidels, and the Romish Church will be responsible." St. Ilyacinthe : Mr. Jl. F. Boudreau, — "A woman came to our church yesterday (m thu first time. Siit told me she had come in contact with our people, and that her husband iiuij children had decided to leave the Roman Catholic Church and come to ours. Anothor, « young man of about thirty, called on me yesterday to say that he had left Romanism, and expressed a desire to be visited, and attend our services. He is a very intelligent man and taken a college course. Wo have reason to be thankful and encouraged." MM. A. Foncher and C. Favier, colporteurs, Otbiwa County : " This month we have spt nt in the county of Buckingham, and are now in Notre Dame de Salctte Parish. The puojilu are strongly attached to Rome. A few families have received us well. In one where wc had spoken on the gospel they were much pleased. No one in the family could ri-iid. They said they would send two children to Pointe aux Trembles in the fall. In anotlur family we were well received, especially by the husband, to whom we sold a Bible. He said he had heard the gospels read, and it caused him to see the great errors in which he was He said he would leave the errors of his church at once, but ho desired to bring all his family with him, and that his wife did not see the truth yet, but he hoped God would soon open her eyes. He also said that he desired to send his little girl to I'ointe aux Trembles. Wc have sold a good many Bibles and Testaments. The bad weather has hiudered us, but we arc encouraged, although not so much as last month." Ottawa : Mr. E. F. Seylaz. There is a steady and noticeable improvement in St. Marks church. Our weekly prayer-meeting continues of interest to the people. When we came t.j St. Marks there was a debt amounting to some six hundred dollars. We felt that we ('01111! never succeed, spiritually handicapped with debts, so I told the congregation that if tliey would pay the floating debts we would try and collect enough to clijar the mortgage. Mrs. S. went among the people, the Christian friends of the cause, and met with warm sympathy, so to prove their good will they responded generously, and we have paid off the mortgage of fcjur hundred and three dollars." Frs. Rondeau, colporteur, Ottawa and Hull : — " A man came to my house and asked me to road for him a Chapter from the Gospels. He listened with much attention, saying tiiat it did him much good. He said he knew why it was forbidden him by his Church, that the priests were deceivers, and that he would have to separate from the Church. Anotiier Roman Catholic which I visited said: 'I like to hear you road the New Testament wiiieh you lent me. I know that it is good, and we ought to do what it says, but I do not know why the priests forbid us to read it. If I could only read, I would read it often ' X Roman Catholic, of Hull, said, while tnlking to me: 'f am disgusted with my Cluirdi. I would like to separate from it. I see its errors. I road the Now Testament every day. and I know that it teaches the way of life, and that I ought to follow the teachings ni this book. My desire is to join you, but my wife keeps mo back.'

"Dining the mouth, I was able to visit the far eif districts, and every whore the work is encouraging. There is no trouble in finding Roman Catholic listeners. The difficulty is to persuade them that they can t^ike the I5ilde and stay in the country. Two families are leaving here just now, ' becav.se,' said tlio father.*. 'it is impossible to join your church and stay here, so we liavo decided to go to Muske(;iin. We seem to have no results, but the Lord knows all, and if one ami all must go to tin States, well others hero must receive the truth. If any one thinks we do not need tlie prayers and sympathy of Christians as much as any foreign missionary, they should try the work and pass tlirotigh such experience as I now report, but the Lord is good, and 1 am full of hope and courp.ge." Waubaushene, Ac, J. A.Savignac : " Have visited many villages and find French Canadians everywhere.

The attendance at services has lictii more regular, and the young people especially have sliown a serious attention to tlie means of grace. 2nd. The unity between the English and French Protestants has been grt'iitly strengthened. "The work among the comparatively few Roman Catholics here is most encouraging. I have not the least difficulty in talking with them on any religious subject, and they have not tlie least hesitation in coming to my service^, and particularly the young, who seem to compete with our Protestant children, as to who shall learn our Shorter Catechism best. Their parents take pride in sending their children to our church wlien they cannot come tlicmselves. On the whole, I have every reason to be encouraged with my French work here." POINTB AUX TREMBLE^: SCHOOLS. As enquiry ia frequently made for information regarding the Mission Schools at Pointc- aii.x-Trembles, we repeat what has appeared in previous reports : Tlie Schools are situated on the north shore of tlie St. Lawrence River, nine miles east of Montreal. They were founded in 1846 by the French Canadian Missionary Society, and were ])\irchased by the General Assembly of our Cliurcli in 1880. On the mission property there are two schoul buildings, one for lioys, which can accommodate al)Out 120, and tlie other for girls, with accommodation for between 80 and 1)0, including the recent extension. Upwards of 3,500 French Canadians have already been educated here. Masy of tliese now occupy positions of tru.st and influence as minlster.'S, teachers, physicians, lawyers, mercliants, etc. Pupil." are admitted between the ages of thirteen and twenty-five, the average ajje being seven- teen. A preference is given to the sons and daughters of French Roman Catholic parents and to the children of recent converts from Rome, living in parishes where there is no Protestant school. Many of these arc unable to read or write when first received into the schools. The .■session begins iti October each year and continues for seven months. The pupils all reside in the buildings, and thus enjoy the advanlaijes of a Christian home, under the watchful nurture of earnest, devoted teachers. They all take their share of hou.^'ework. The day's duties are thus laid out: — Hise at 5.30 a.m. All are in the class-ruom studying privately from 6 to 7. Breakfast at 7. House and out-door work from 7.30 to 8.45. Family worship, when all assemble together, boys and girls, at 8.45. Scliool begins at 9 with united Bible-class for all, and continues till 12. Dinnei- at 12, followed by recreation to 1.30. Then classes till 4, recreation from 4 till 5, classes from 5 till (5, tea at 6, recreation to 7; studying privately in class-room till 9, then family worship, (Iwys and girls in their separate buildings) at 9, and all in bed and lights out at 9.30 p.m. There are eight teachers, all of whom reside in the buildings. They are earnest Christians of devoted, missionary spirit, thoroughly consecra- ted, to their work. The Principal, Rev. J. Bourgoin, "has been twenty-two years connected with the institution, ami is admirably adapted for his position. Miss Vessot, formerly French teacher in the Montreal High School, and daughter of one of our oldest missionaries, is Directress of the girls' school. She, a.s well as all the other teachers, ren- ders most efficient service. Special prominence is given to the reli^iou.s instruction of the pupils, and to the teaching of God's Word on the points of difference oetween Protestants and Roman Catholics. In these eveiy pupil is thoroughly indoctrinated, and it is no exaggeration to state that com- paratively few of our English speaking young n)en and women are better acquainted with their Bibles, or better able to give a reason for the hope that is in them, than are the pupils of Poinle aux Trembles when they leave the Mission Schools there. The attendance last session was one hundred and sixty-eight. Not only is great care e.xerciseJ in the selection of pupils from the increasingly large number of French Canadians applying for admission, but the policy of the Board in inducing the brightest among them to contmue for three or four consecutive sessions, is bearing manifest fruit. The schools are visited and examined monthly by a committee of the Board appointed for the purpose, and towards the end of the session written examinations are held on all the subjects taught during the year. A public closing examination took place in the last week of April, which was attcnileil by a number of ministers and other friends, who bore testimony to the efficiency of the schools, and to tiie thoroughness of the teaching given, especially in Bible studies. When the Board acquired the property in 1880, they resolved to admit no pupils giatuit- o\iAy, except Roman Catholics whose parents were unable or unwilling to contribute. All others are required io p&y something, in proportion to their ability, towards board and tuition. The amount received in this way during the past session was $1,052.25. A considerable portion vni.

The Board desire that tlit institution hIiouM he supported by irieans of HcliolarsliipH uf ii:,[\ each, guaranteeti by private individual.s or Sabbath Schooln. A particular pupil is assi;.'iu.il to the donor of a scholarship, to whom reporis as to the progress made are forwarded fidm time to time. In this way a Sabbath School contributing a scholarship, is put directiv in correspondence with the Mission School, and the letters, if read publicly to the SaliiiiUh School, tend to keep up their interest in the work. The eidargemcnt of the buililiiigsatnl iho conse(pient increase in the nuTnber of pupils neccs.aitates a very large iiicreast? in e.;peii(liitir(. annually. It is hoped, therefore, that many more of the Sabbath Schools of the Church will assume'the support of a pui)il. From those unable to do so, acontribution is earnestly asknl. The IJoard have no hesitation in warndy commending the schools as worthy of public cnnti. dence, assured that no inear.s are likely, by the blessing of God, to be more ellicacious in iln. work of French Canadian Fvangelix.ation, and in advancing the cause cf Christ in ihi. Province of Quebec. Year after year God has luanif'estly set His seal upon this work, ainl blessed tlie labors of the teachers! " The Lord hath done great things for ua, whereof \\v nw- glad." Sll|,- uiils PRINCIPAL'S ANNUAL UEPOUT. At the close of this session we have the pleasure of informing all the friemis and porters of our missions schools that the worl< has been sealed with the manil'eijt ble,( Rome, it is shaped with a view to strengthen the doniineering power of the clergy by tilliin; the minds of the young people with prejudices against all citizens of other races and other creeds whose success atid prosperity are always attributed to a reward of mammon to t'lusc who follow him for worldly advantages During the past session one hundred and sixty eight boys and girls have attended (Jiir Schools. Six of them were children of Protestant families, seventy-five of converted faiiiilit-, and eighty-seven belonged to parents who still adhere to the Church of Rome. Many of the Roman Catho.ics who were witii us had never before been in contact with Protestants. Everything liere was new and strange to them ; family prayer, public servici's, sabbath school, Bible lessons, the discipline, etc. It was a new world for them, and it is imt surprising if we had some difficulty iu dissipating their lonesomeness and in keeping thiin with us. Hardly a month had passed after the re-opening of the schools when the son of one nf our missionaries, one of our best pupils, fell sick and dieii after a few days of suffering. He was a sincere Ciiristian, and his good example, his words of faith, his good counsels to liir* companions, have made a (ieep impression upon the wliole school, and this trial has bocuim' the means through which the Holy Spirit has brought to serious thoughts man} of our young people. We are glad to say that during the session twenty-one young men and women have liceii converted to Christ, and that they have openly professed their faith intheir Saviour, sevorul of them expressing at the same time their desire of devoting their lives to missioiuvry work. A most interesting gathering took place in the school in February, at the atmuiil \nM- ing of the Association of the present and former pupils. Many had come, even from jriwii distances, to be present at this friendly reunion. Rev. Mr. Morin from Montreal presulid, and delivered an interesting speech on thedestiny of the Province of Quebec, and on the duty of every French Protestant to remain in his native country and work for its developiiieni, The contributions received during the year amounted to $270, which was considered as a Appendix No. 10. b. ;,iont ;;rf.tifying result. One of the greatest desiderata for the school liciii;r .just now the orectioii of n recreiitioii room for tlie pupils who, iti tiie days of ruin or storm, ure compelled 10 stay ftll day in their class rooms, where they can neither play nor take any exercise, two Imiidii'd dollars were readily voted towards that ohject.

This College, for the education of young women, has been four years in connection with llie Church, the aim being to give the daijghters of our families a (borough education in French and English at a moderate cost, and thus remove all pretext for Protestant parents fending their daughters to convents. The sesf-ion just closing has been fairly successful, f.ipecially when taken into consideration with the fact that a sisterhootl of the Church of England have opened a school immediately across the street from the College. The attend- ance of pupils during the year was one hundred, of whom twenty-nine were boarders, and peveiity-one day pupils. The teaching was thoroughly efficient in every department, and the home life of the mstitution all that could be desired. The buildings occupy a most eligible site in the Capital of the Dominion, and are most admirably adapted for educational purposes. They are spacious, well furnished, lighted with gas, heated with steam and hot water, and provided with all modern conveniences for health and comfort, the sanitary arrangements bemg perfect. Many improvements are being made in the buildings this summer, including the refurnishing of many of the bedrooms. The grounds are large and well laid out, and are utilized for lawn tennis, crocjuet, etc. The course of study extends over six sessions of about nine months each, and embraces the following departments — Ist, Preparatory ; 2nd, Junior ; .3rd, Intermediate ; 4th, Senior ; Dtli, Collegiate. The musical department is in charge of a graduate of Oxford University, Kneland, holding honor diplomas from the Royal Academy of Music, and Trinity College of Slusic, London. There is a Kindergarten under an experienced English teacher, with a French assistant. There are also resident teachers of French and German, from France and Germany. The terms for tuition and boaud have been fixed at the lowest point consistent with elliciency. The cost for resident pupils for board wiih furnished room, fuel and light, and tuition in all the ordinary branches, including French, German and Latin, ranges from $155 to $185 per session of 38 weeks. The Board are determined to spare no efTort to make the College second to no young ladies school in the country, and with the experience of the past four years, hope to make it worthy of the confidence of all parents desiring for their daughters a first-class education in a truly Christian home. The next session commences on 12th September, 1893. Miss McBratney, who has proved herself bo thoroughly qualified for the position of Principal, will be assisted by an efficient staff of experienced "teachers of pronounced Christian cnaracter. Circulars, with full particulars as to terms, fees, etc., can be had on application to the Rev. Dr. Warden, iiox 1839, Post Office, Montreal. m XII. Appendix No. 10.

Mr. McKenzie ami Mr. .^nimnd, with their wives, liavo fcj)ent a portion of the year in .\u8tralia, where, though still busy in the interests of the mission, they have enjoyed a well earned and much needed rest ; and have been yreatly benefited in roHpect of health. Their temporary absence has not been followed by any ill jffects in their respective tields, as their letters show that the native agents have conducted the work with good success. Mr. Robertson, although often suffering with malarial fever, has kept to liis post and toiled on with his wonted vigor and hopefulness. Mrs, Robertson, however, has been obliged to como to Australia for the recovery of her heaUh, and may find it necessary to continue for some time away from the wearing care and isolation of the ininsion. A desolating hurricane, or cyclone, swept over some of the islands of the group on March 6th ; and in places, such iis Ambrini, whore Dr. Lamb is stationed as a medical missionary representing the Presbyterian Church in New Zealand, scarcly left a hut stand- ing, and completely destroyed all the gardens and plantations of the people. But the stations of our mission do not seem to have suft'ered severely. Disease also has been epidemic on Futuna, but our islands have, in the good Providence of God, been exempt from such visitations. The story of the year's work can best be told by the missionaries' reports. REV. H. A. ROBERTSON In his report says : — My report, I fear, will not be as bright and encour.iging as the Church would desire, nor as hopeful as I and my wife have toiled and prayed to see for mort than twenty years. Perhaps I should state that yesterday afternoon, foi' four hours, I lay shivering in the grip of fever and ague, and although the thermometer was up to 89° in my room, 1 must have had at least six blankets and rugs on me, and with all these I felt as if my body was (tacked in ice, my head in a volcano, and a huge olephint resting on my lungs. Besides V)eing most distressing for the time, fever saps the strength for days, sometimes for weeks afterwards, and always produces a gloom and depression, so -t is perhaps not the best time to write you of the year's work. However, tlie past year has not been on the whole a discouiagirg one, for if there were nothing more than the fact that throe times during this year the people gathered in to be present at the Lord's supper, and conducted themselves with such commendable Christian propriety, that of itself ought to be regarded as a great and glorious change for Erromanga from what it was even wlien wo landed here twenty years ago last June, and how much greater tlie change from when the brothers Gordon, of martyr memory, landed not lorg before. (^no of these connnunions, that of July at Dillon's Bay, was to us of special interest. We had the great joy of seeing our two oldest daughters at the Lord's table with us, and with many men and women of Erromanga. What more suitable place for them to join the Church of Christ than within the walls of the Martyr's Church <>f Erronianga, and within 300 yards of the spot where John Williams fell a martyr for Christ, and on the island where their own parents are the only missionaries. In the district of what had boon the most warlike tribe on the island, we had our February communion ; 450 were present ; gathered from many districts, 120 sat at the vi. Al'PKNUlX No. 11.

Ill the end of Auf^ust, Mrs. Robertson, the children, iind myHi'lf went around fmiu Dillon's Biiy, our headquarters, to Portnarevin, on the other side of tlie island. Wesiunt about tliree weeks then during which live marriiii^'eB were celebrated ; a number of districts viaited, and the (Sacrament was dispensed at Cook's Bay, where we had about the same lumiber present as at our Fei)ruary connnunion. Before returning we visiteil the grave of Rev. James Doutjlas Gordon ; the foundation of his house where tie savage Nerimpint killed him ; and his old, l)rok'in down, clnu'cli, in which he so earnestly, as tiod's servant, preached a pure and free gospel to all wim would come. Often when feeling lonely, I try to picture to myself how lonely it nuist have been for .lames Gordon, without a wife, to si)end eight years on this island, when the people, with perhaps not i.u>re than six exceptions, were heathen. A MISSIONARY .IOL'K>fEV To THK KAST SIliK Ot THE ISI,\M). In October, accompanied by my son (iordoii, 1 made a visit to the east siJe of the island to settle three young men from my class as teachers. Besides settling the teachers I Lad the joy of receiving publicly '2.') persons from lieathenism into the ranks of the Christian party. Three of these were high chiefs, but being a high chief in the New Hebrides is a small aflair. In heathenism almost any chief has a good deal of power for evil, because evil id sweet to the natural heart of sin, but when a chief here becomes a Christian he has absolutely no power beyond any one of his people ; he can no longer employ brute force, and he has no oHicial power .among a people where every man, woman and child, acts at pleasure. Real heathenism is a poor, weak dying atfair now in this island, and any who are not in already, are not likely to be of much force, as we have all along noticed that the best men and women, every way, are those who come out first from heathenism in the various districts. In the proof of the decay of heathenism I might mention that this year no fewer than 26 heathen relics, or Fetich have been brought to me for sale. They are eitiier round rings, or semicircular in shape, representing the new, or full moon which it is probable by-gone generations worshipped. These A'aoeltuh as they are called, are cut out from some kind of spar-stone and are kept buried under the ground until brought out at their great feasts. The natives deny they wore ever cut out by man's hand. This however is nonsense, though certainly they were not made within the last hundred years. Had I been able to purchase one of these in the early years I might have brought to an end batt'.es on the south side of this island and have pre cnted several shocking murders. But nothing could purchase a fetich in those days. I have dispensed medicine to, or put up inodicine for, 1,200 persons. . Baptisms : infants 12, adults 24. Christian marriages, 13. During the year 50 persona have publicly renounced all heathenism and have joineil the Christian party. TEAt'HEUS. At pre.seiit I ■ ave twenty-seven teachers employed : one left the work, one died, and one went with Mr. Morton to Malekula, but I have three young men ready to be placed out soon, which will bring the number up to thirty. I find it now extremely di>«cult to keep up a full staff", as the death rate is high. Al'l'ENDlX No. 11. vu.

MCKEXZIK Writes ; — By the heading of this letter, you will see that we are now away from our station. We came up to this colony several months ago on furlough and hope to return to our loved work with health fully re- established about the end of January. We hear regularly from our people. The good work is progressing in our absence. From Imtang, one of imr out-stations, we had the cheering tidings a few days ago that their little church is now too small for the number who attend. The heathen in that part of the island are nearly all in now. The teachers now in charge, natives of the place, had to tlee for their lives some years ago when they renounced heathenism. They came to Erakor and were taken into our training class. During their absence one o two more becanie friendly and so the way was opened up for their returning as teachers. Imtang was once the worst part f)f the island for cannibalism. It was there the no- torious old chief Marik Tunul lived. When I first visited him he had about thirty wives, and he was so jealous of them that he kept a number of young men about him, armed, to put to death any one seen speaking to them. Those thus murdered were generally cooked and eaten. Some of the letters we receive are very touching. They tell us how they are longing for our return, and how that at all their meetings they pray for us that we may be restored to health. They have implicit confidence in us, and we regard them almost as our children. The morning wo left, the chief of Fila, one of our out-stations, came on board with a number of his people, to say good-bye, and, after he had shaken hands, he turned away and wept like a child. What a contrast to his conduct some years ago, when one Sabbath morning he rushed down to the shore, with tomahawk and spear, to prevent us from landing at his vdlage, telling us that if we did we would be murdered. We receive cheering accounts for the most part about the young men we have trained and sent out to assist other missionaries. It is almost as nuich of a trial for them to go and labour on other islands as it is for us missionaries to go to the foreign field. They go amongst strangers .and to a people speaking a language altogether different from theirs. lU vni. Appendix No. 11. ♦■ TheHO native toathers are of great service to a missionary. They assibt him at house huihling or any other manual labour. They go in his boat, visit the heal;h^.., teach in the schools, take charge of the work and conduct the services in the absence of the missionary- We were grieved to hear some months ago of the death of one of our young men. He had gone out to another island with his young wife to take the place of his brother-in-law who had died. They had not been many months settled until she was taken away, leaving an infant a few days old. When the child was strong enough the poor fellow took it home to his friends at Erakor, and willingly returned to his work. About six months after he was laid by the side of his young wife in a strange land. Since coming to Australia a, good deal of my time has been devoted to transla+'ug. I hope to take back with me a Scripture History and a new edition of our hynni book, with about forty additional hymns. These are now in the hands of the printer. A note from Mr. McKenzie written March 13th, after his return from Australia, is here given. It shows that the cyclone which swept some of the islands did not do much damage to the stations connected with our mission. It also indicates much progress in the conversion of the heathen. " Wo felt somewhat anxious leaving Sydney at -his season of the year, lest a hurricane should overtake up '''ore we reached our station. By the good hand of our God uj)on us, however, we had tine weather the whole voyage, and reached home in safety. We feel especially thankful for this, for we had not been home much more than a week when wo were visited by the severest hurricane we have had for fourteen years. Our buildings did not sutler much, but the natives' gardens were much destroyed, and we know of at least one European— a Frenchman, who had a copra station on Ambrim — and seven or eight Ambrimese, who perished at sea. Two days after tlio hurricane some of our natives came to me greatly excited, saying that a dismasted vessel was in the offing apparently drifting on to the rocks. Wa got out our boat as (juickly as possible, and boarded her. We found her to be a Queensland labour vessel with over a hundred natives on b'ard. Fortunately for them they found anchorage, otherwise they would soon have been rm the breakers. A French steamer happened to be in Fila harbour at the time, so she came '■'•nd towed the vessel round to the harbour. The captain said they had a frightful time of it, but no lives were lost. When in Sydney we heard that Mrs. Michelsen, of Tongoa — an island a little to the north of us — died in London. We could not believe it, and hoped that later word would prove the report to be unfounded. Alas ! it is too true. How our mission has been suffering of late I The Lawries had to leave the work, then the Mortons,, and now word has come that the gentle Mrs. Michelsen will return to us no more ! Surely, as a brother missionary writes to ma, all these deaths (Mrs. Leggatt died last year) and removals hive a message to us as a mission from (rod. May we be led to pay more heed to the eternal verities, and to live closer to God. I was forgetting to menti.m another sad death. A Mr. Wilson, a carpenter from New Zealand, who came down with Mr. Milne, of Nguiia, about the middle of last year, to assist him in the erection of some buildings, died from sunstroke a few weeks ago. He left his wife in New Zealand. What a sad blow for her ! And now I have glad news for you about our own work. At last wo have a teacher settled on Mele, and a church erected there. What a glad surprise it was for us the night we arrived from Sydney to hear that .some of the natives of that village were waiting for a teacher. We left Sydney with lonely hearts, but we feel now, having roceivod this token of God's favour and presence, somewhat strengthened to bear the trial of being separated from our children. We can scarcely realize that the hostility of that village, so long continued and ap intense, has cone to an end. But such is the case. I do not wish you, howeve.r, to think that the whole village is in. The majority of them may not Appkndix No. 11. for Home time attend church, l)iit ihey havo sunondcroil, hwiny had to ndiiiit that (Jod is Htronger than they. .\ number are not only friendly l)Ut anxinus to receive the trutii, and in due time tliey will all acknowledge Christ as their King. Since wo returned v»! have also had the hapiiineBS oi settling a teacher at Woruntapou ; it is a small village, but has always been opposed to the gospel. At prestMit ly one man has renounced heathenism, ].^ii, the rost are friendly and brought food fcjr those who built a house for the teacher. During (tur absence another small village, Woronarfon, at the exlrcmo end of our district, moved to Eton, a Christian village. All the villages on our side of the island are now occupied. On Mr. Macdonald's side too the work I< progressing favourably, so that soon Efato will i, mtain no heathen. The only sad part of it is that the population <.f the island is gradually growing less." RKV. .lOSEPH ANNAN n ASKS ; VVhat have we been doing during the past year ; and what are the results of our labors In answering these (luestions, I must, to be brief, summarize largely. Our manual labours for the improvement of the station have been comparatively small. Perhaps the most noteworthy fact is, that wo did not erect a building of any descriptiim on Tangoa during the year, nor did wo even renew a roof. There being no fresh water on the islet beyond the rain supply, we dug a well some twenty foot in depth in the ravine, and thereby secured a large and permanent supply of good water. I men- tion this, as possibly some day this well may become historic, if not famous. Of labors more directly connected with the evangelization of the people, I may give those of the printing room a prominent place. By these, the (iospel according to Mat- thew, and another small book, were placed in the hands of our readers. The second book is composed of a translation of "Intas ahodaig Thuj) ' (.Aneityum catechism) ; the creed of the Island church ; the Ten Commandments and eighteen liynnis, making thirty-six pages in all. The mechanical work of " Mathiu '' would have been somewhat better had my supply of typo been larger. Both English and pica were recpiired to complete four pasres, and " k " came from four different fonts. I tried to enlarge my stock of type, but none of the kinds required could be obtained nearer than Britain, and my order is not filled yet. Our schot throU'j;ti all the excitiu;; times following the murder o!' Mr. Sawers. Hy their aid we recovered tile body of our friend, and .saved all the go.jds from plunder. Also from information .,'ained i)y them .ind uiven to me, a plot to murder the Powells and Harhtws, planters will) have oonn) to Santo, and to plunder their goods, was defeated. At no time were any of them " up in arms against the Mi8.^iona^y," as published in Sydney. The action of the naval authd hur children arrived in Sydney ten diiyx a!^i> to reniiiin for li time. Mr. H. reniaiiiH alone on Krroinungii. Mr, Morton lum now tinully left the Miaition. Yesterday we heard also that Mr. A. H. Mncdoniild had resigned tlie Misrtion, .so we •done are loft on Santo. Mr. (iray, of Tanna, leaves the Mission at the end of this year. Our Mi.s.sion is tluii passing througii dee|) waters. We cannot have a Synod meeting this year boeause of no vessel and im funds wiiorewitii to charter one especially for our work. Wo expect to sail next week by steamer to Efate, thence we shall have to i(o by a sciiouner. Our goods are to follow us on a schooner that leaves on the 29th instant. ()ur fric.ids must not expect to hear often from us for the next twelve months." MI.SSION VK.SSEL. Dr. Cosh.HOcretnry to the "Daysi)ring" Hoard, has forwarded us the following circular letter, which, to the great regret of the Committee, shown that the steam service enjoyed for three years, has been discontinued : — "Owing to the withdrawal of the Government subsidies the steam service to the New Hebrides has been discontinued. Some little time must necessarily elapse before it can be definitely determined how the wants of the Mission in this respect are to be provided for in the future. In the meantime, the ' Day- spring ' lioard is making arrangements to ch:irter a vessel to jiroceed to the Islands, and deliver goods and pa.ssengors and letters at the Mission Stations, as may be retiuired. The I'loard hope to be able to arrange for some suitable vessel to do this service, leaving .Sydney as soon as possible after the 15th of April. Unless something else is determined upon, the Board will also make similar arrangements for a vessel to leave Sydney for the Islands in July and October. The Board think it probable that in the present circum- stances the meeting of the Synod will have to be postponed this year. The state of the funds also makes it necessary that the service for this year be restricted to what is absolutely indispensable." THE QUESTION OF TRANSFEKENCE. Several circumstances seem to indicate that the time has come for the Church to con- sider, whether it may not be wise and practicable for her to hand over the New Hebrides mission to some of the sister Churches in Australia, New Zealand and Tasmania, that are labouring in the group ; and whose ability to assume the whole burden of the work is un- doubted. The proximity of the ground to these Churches, and its great distance from us, makes it a far more suitable field for their supervision than for ours. For the same reason, more economy in the working of it should be easily possible to them. Chiefly, however, this 4Uostion is forced on us by the greatly increased, and rapidly increasing, necessities of the mission to the Indian Innnigrants in the West Indies, which calls loudly for all the resources of the Eastern Section of our Church, which section is responsible for the funds for these two fields. The Committee, therefore, reciuest the A.ssembly to grant them permission to refer the whole matter to the Synod of the Maritime Provinces, and report the decision of the Synod to the next General Assembly. 1 J' I. Xll. Appendix No, 11. II. TRINIDAD. This is the aonii-jubilcc year of the Trinidad Mission. It is therefore a fitting point of outlook over the work in that field. In the autumn of 1867 Mr. Morton with his wife started this enterprise. They were joined three years later by Mr. Grant and his wife. Since then, though some other members of the staff have not been permitted to remain in the work by reason of sickness or death, these pioneers have toiled on with indefatigable zeal, and are still capable of bearing as they cheerfully do, the "heat and burden of the day." Mr. McLeod died in harness, and "lies on the field of battle." Mr. Christie, on account of failing health, resigned, but continued to preach the Gospel in other fields till strength utterly failed, and he too joined the army of triumph. Sickness prostrated Mrs. Wright, and Mr. Wright was obliged to leave at a time when the door of usefulness seemed opening before him. But Macrae and Cofiin and Thompson have taken up the work, and proved themselves worthy of the succession with which they have been honoured. Of the devout women who have been identified with the mission, several have passed awaj'. Mrs. McLeod, Mrs. Christie, Mrs. Macrae and Miss Archibald have fallen — two rtt home, and two on " ihe field of battle," Mrs. Wright, Miss Semple (now Mrs. Clarke) and Miss Graham have been compelled, by failing health, to return to their native land. Of the four now on the field the Church mav well feel proud, while Miss Blackadder particularly merits distinction, as havmg stood the toils of her position for over sixteen years. At the close of the 2oih year of miisionary lab^v of Dr. Morton and the 22nd of Dr. (irant, the Committee deem it a suitable time to put on record their sense of the worth and adaptability to their special work of these two pioneer missionaries and of the un- remitting care and labor which they and their families have bestowed on this now most prosperous mission during all the past years of breaking up the fallow ground and sowing} it with the precious seed of the Kingdom : and also their gratitude to Divine Providence who through Dr. Mornon led the Church into this field and so ordered all the circum- stances of the work as to result in the present fiourishing condition of the mission, which shows 573 communicants, 52 schools in operation with 4,324 scholars in attendance, 2 ordained Hindoo ministers, 39 Hindoos preparing by training in the College for the work of the ministry, and in intervals of study along with several others, male and fein.ile Labouring as catechists in the field, ^2,090.42 contributed by thec 11 73 5 7 73 5 7 Excess of Expenditure. . . .

MORTON S REPORT. Much might be written by way of review at the end of twenty-five years. The three who landed then are .still working together. Three others who brightened our home for many years are together at the University of Edinburgh. The 25,000 East Indians have increased to nearly 75,000, and the three children first taught on the door-.step to 4,.324 enrolled and 1,698 in average daily attendance. In this district I began work nearly twelve years ago, without a building, and witli but one indifferent teacher and two young converts.

To this number a considerable increase is likely to occur very shortly. The contributions for the Native Church fur 1892 amounted to i'94. Ts. 2d. ial collection on last Sabbath amounted to $54.35. On the last Sabbath of the year our church at Tunapuna, which seats over 200, w. s filled. The whole service, ;vhich included thedispensatiim of both Baptism and the Lord's Si' per, was most solemn. The past year has been one of peace, miity and good-will am- g all tlie workers and among the converts. For these things with sober and chast- ened thankfulness we bless our God. Appendix No. 11. XV, Last year was reported unusually dry ; 1892 has been unusually wet, affecting serious'y the attendance at some of our schools. I have to acknowledge my indebtedness to Rev. A. \ '. Thompson for the regularity with which he visited the Chaguanas, Charlieville, Cunopia and Warrenville schools ; thus relieving me of some laborious school inspection, that I might be able to attend to college work. The work' of your missionary has this year been more extended than ever in the iiast. The opening of the college appropriated two days of his week for teaching and some ad- ditional time for preparation. The progress of the work at the outlying stations made it necessary for him to be more frequently absent for the whole Sabbath day from the cen- tre. More responsibility has thus been thrown on the catechists. More has been ex- pected of them, and I am happy to say they have risen to the demand. The fact that there has been no change among the agents during the year says much for the steadiness and efficiency with which they have been doing their work. Through these catechists and teachers, as well as by direct eftbrts, your missionary has sought to fulfil his commission and bring the truth home to both old and young. So far as teaching, preaching and visiting are concerned, our catechists discharge the work of the ministry. It is my duty to direct and encourage them, and to check and complete their work. We are dependent upon each other for success. A district with only catechists and one with no catechists would be equally ill eqripped. NIGHT .SCHOOLS AND SABBATH SCHOOLS are kept up at nearly all stations, the former for men and wor' ing boys, the latter for both old and young. All my schools have been provided with a supply of a work entitled " The Story of Jesus," in Scrij ure language. This book has 105 pictures, which, to those who cannot read well, are of more value than the letter-press. In both day and Sunday schools this work has been found mosi' helpful, nuking the work of teaching more easy, interesting and profitable. In Sabbath school work one difticiilty is to get suitable teachers. Miss Morton teaches nt St. Joseph at 7.30, Funapuna at 10, and Tacarigaa at 3 o'clock ; and the more advanced pupils arc drawn upon to meet S.ibbath school domrtnds. At Tacarigua the at- tendance is often close upon 100. .\ catechist is detailed for the class of men. Mis? Morton and some of the " Homo " girls have further gone to the ail of Miss Blackadder and her local teachers ; but even yet the classes are too large. Miss Blacka Ider, our first Canadian teacher, is still with us, as bright and useful as ever. Her sixteenth annual report gives full and interesting details of her work. In the Tunapuna SabbaMi school Mrs. Morton has a very large class of women. Her Hible Class in the " Home," hold every day in the week except Saturday, is attended by all the larger Tunapuna school girls, and has in this way been widely useful. TRMPERANCE WORK has, as usual, received much attention. The evil which it is meant to combat is s(f ubi(|uito'.rt and insidious that sleepless watchfulness is necessary. Suitable magic lantern views, addresses, music and recitations have made our meetings popular, so that we always get a crowded house. To secure this groat pains have been taken by Mrs. Morton in selecting and composing lecitations and getting the school children trained to do them justice. In this work we have exchanged aid with some of the other districts, with mutual advantage. WORK AMONO THE Wo.MEN was carried on by Mrs. Morton and Fanny Subarn until April, when influenza laid the XVI. Appendix No. 11. former aside for a time and left her unable to continue the work to the same extent. More was therefore laid upon Fanny, who has made good her position as a Christian worker all over this district. Industrious, courageous and ant to teach the people, men as well as women, respect and welcome her. All her afternoons, Saturdays excepted, are given to this work. Her meetings are in some places held in achool-houses, at other places in the homes of Christians, into which the neighbors gather. Three girls who are trained in the " Home " give what time they can spare from household duties to work among their countrywoinen. Some also who are still in the " Home '" have helped in the work. Indeed it is one distinct object of the training given to prepare the girls foi Christian work. HOME FOR OIRLS. An average of eleven girla have been in the " Home " this year, three of whom hiivo been married, one to a teacher in the Princestown district. They are taught the throe R's, housekeeping, gardening, sowing, Bible knowledge, and propriety of conduct towanl their fellows. A great deal of care and toil has been given to this work by Mrs. and Miss Morton. There has been time now to see the effect on the girls themselves and on the people generally. The result has been satisfactory beyond my e.\pectation. The number at first influenced may seem to be small, but the influence is telling on the hom.'s of thi' people — ort the daughters, wives and mothers ; and improved home life will give character to that of the Church. The cost for the year lias been £100 stg., more than a tenth less than £10 per annum per ffirl. THANKS. Dr. Morton c'.oses his report by thanks to the many, whom he names, who iiave given help ; to the Government of Trinidad for aid and er ■ouragemeiit to scliools ; to estate owners who have given generously to the work ; to congregations and friends in Scotland, Id women's societies, mission bands, congregations and individuals in Canada, east and west, who have sent money, clothin^' for school children, books, religious papers, cards, etc., and who have thus become sharers in that great and blessed work. DR. (IKANT's KEl'ORT. At the beginning of the year the northern section of this district was assigned to Mr. Coftiu. He was at all times ready to aid in the English work of the town also, but his presence was specially valuable in the closing of the year, when indisposition interfered not only with my ordinary work, but with the winding up of the year's accounts. I am much indebted to him. Mr. Ragbir left witli his family for the United States in May, and negotiations an- now in progress for his .settlement in Grenada on his return, a few months hrnoe. Recently, at the request of the Rev. James Rae, of the Established Church of Scut- land, and minister of the Presbyterian congregation of St. George's, Grenada, I visited his mission stations. At one I preached to 1.50 people, and 54 sat down at tlieCoinmunion tal)le. At a second, 70 were present ; of these 22 were communicants. At a third, oO were present, and at a fourth 25. To secure Mr. Ragbir, the converts will pay £50 in the first year, with the full ex- pectation of a gradual increase, and at the request of Mr. Rae I accompanied my report to t!ie convener of the Colonial Committee with a request for aid to this prosperous work. When speaking of outside work, 1 may state on behalf of my onlained assistant, Babu Lai Bihari, who is always reluctant to write, that he, under appointment of our Mission Council, visited the mission stations in St. Lucia in February, and on his return submitted to the council a highly satisfactory report. Appendix No. 11. XVII. The work in tho southern section of my district devolved chiotly on Lai Bihari, and ho carried it forward with constant application and vigour. In former reports I spoke of this district as naturally divisible into ei'^ht sections and each section to form an independent congregation under a i ative pastor. To tliis end we are constantly working. The Church in San Fernando, which embraces the Central station, has imiilemented its engagements in the matter f)f salary by paying seven hun- dred and twenty dollars. As an indication of the disposition to assume responsibilities, I may mention that U jagarsingh, the catechist at Oroj/oucho, recently convened a meeting at that place. Tho out-stations of Rusillac and Fyzabad were well represented ; and, after deliberating, they resolved to get better lamps and seats for the church hi which they met, to purchase a bell for Rusillac, and to get additional seats for their meeting house at Fyzabad — they themselves to meet all costs without encroaching on the Sabbath collections, and a com- mittee was appointed to carry out these improvements. This is the most independent action yet taken by any of the country sections, and we believe it is due in some measure to the spirit developed through the systematic training of the year closing. Unfjuestioii- ably the growing ethciency of some of our lielpers is marked. Services are conducted at 22 regular stations every LordsL)ay, and rfit (juite as many more smaller places. Hospitals are accessible on every day of the week to our agents, if they have time, to go to read or speak to the people, and every liberty is given them to go from door to door on the estates in carrying on evangelistic work. Sabbath school work receives much attention Our largest sch(3ol at the central church numbers about 200, with 2 1 teachers, principally East Indians. We import Sun- day School Helps at a cost of about ^80 a year, which are sent out to all the country schools, and through these a uniform course of instructicni is securei^ to the whole dis- trict. The Sunday School collections met not only the cost of these Helps, but provided a Christmas treat for hundreds of children on the Mon Repos Savannah, and enabled us to remit ^6 to the B. & F. Bible Society. During live months' absence of Mr. T. Geddes Grant, secretary and treasurer, the work was carefully attended to by Mr. A. Sammy. In point of interest, probably Union Hall Sunday school comes out next to San Fernando. Miss Kirkpatrick superintends and directs. She is assisted by two or three who accompany her. At the close of tho school adults meet for worsh'.i. The service is always conducted by a catechist, and for the full attendance at both services we recogni/.e our indebtedness to a young gentleman on the estate, who shows his interest by coming in as a hearer. The estate feels the happy influence of his presence. Tho Christian Endeavour, started by Mrs. Geddes Grant, is doing excellent work. In her absence Miss Kirkpatrick, who always co-operates, sustained the meetings most elliciently. I would not on any account dispense with this agency, which is doing so much good. Sch(.ol work has been cimducled in 17 schools. Twelve of these were assisted l)y Government, but two having fallen below the legal reciuivements, were closed in April. The total attendance at these schools during the year was 1,248, the average o41. Tho excessive rainfall of the year seriously interfered with school work. Miss Kirkpatrick, who entered on her work here at the beginning of the yen shown herself a model missionary teacher. In January, at a new site on Picton estate, Picton and Wellington schools of our mission, and an Anglican and R. C. school at Diamond, were merged into one (Jovern- mont school. " Mr. Cumming, an early and faithful friend of our mission, placed Picton school-house at our service, and at a cost of £75 we had it removed, renewed and en- l\y their work con- tribute their part to the upkeep of their homes. This we recognize tt> be a healthy fea- ture in connection with school work. Children nurtured in the town do not take kindly to field work, but we find the same thing at home. In the year we had 128 baptisms— children 01, adults 07. Admissiims to the Com munion, 22 ; total communicants now, 316. Contributions from native Church, gl,;{r)0. A Tamil service, atteiuled by about 20 people, is conducted by one of my elders, wlm is also inter[)reter of that languatfe at court. 1 am nt)W arranging^for a similar service in the Chinese language. Is it asked, are the converts staole ? To this we reply. We are not perfectionist.s. We have not found perfection anywhere, nor do we expect to find it whilst in this body of sin. Sometimes we find gross imperfection. I am sorry to say I know three or four who drink and get drunk ; a few are r)penly inunoral ; a few spread more .sail than the ballast and wares on bcmrd warrant, and a craft here and there is found on its beam ends ; but in this experience we are not singular, our case is not exceptional. We unhesitat- ingly assert that a very large proportion o^ our converts witness a good confession ; and we doubt if ministers at home, where Christianity exercises a more potent sway than it does in Trinidad, have more support and cheerful eo-operation than your agents in S.in Fernando. I could relate things doleful and disheartening enough, but life's experience in every department and relation is checkered, and will we grieve the Holy One by gloomily mop- ing over failures when there is much given to relieve and lighten daily duty ? Our rela- tions to those in authority on estates have always been of a cordial character, and thi.s tends materially to facilitate our work. ..ftei' cordial thanks to the many in Trinidad, Scotland and Canada, who aided them in various' ways in the work, Mr. Grant says : " We close our report with gratitude u> God, who hath crowned the year with Ilis goodness." it, sugs;t Iteon do As have niii had mor Th( tions of iiowevei the ensi TJu C'.imniui Appendix No. 11. XIX. MR. MACKAE's REl'ORT. '] he closing year has been exceptionally wet, and much difficulty has been experienced in keeping up the attendance in the schools on account of almost constant rain and bad roads ; still we trust some effective work has been done, as encouraging progress is mani- fested by the majority of the children. We have 13 schools in this district, 9 of which are on the Government assisted list, and 4 are supported wholly by the mission. The total number of pupils enrolled in these schools during the year was 890 boys and 260 girls, in all 1,1.50. The average daily at- tendance was 416, and the number on the roll at the end of the year 722. That such work pays is evident from the fact that a number of converts who have re- ceived a good secular and roii(,'iou8 training in our schools in youth, afterwards form a truer and better working class of Christians than an equal number converted without such a training. On Saturdays all the teachers and monitors have met regularly for secular instruction and drill, an hour also being spent on the Bible lessons intended to be taught the follow- ing day. Some progress has boon made in this line, and three or four of the teachers are going up for the Government examinati(jn in January. No new schools have been optMied during the year, as we find it quite a strain to hold the ground wo now occujiy. Miss Archibald has done her work with her usual faithfulness. She presents a "clean bill of health " at the end of her throe years' service. Since she came to Trinidad she has not, to my knowledge, lost an hour's school through illness. This is a compliment to our climate as well as to her own excellent powers of endurance. Besides Mr. Soodeen, eleven men were employed during the year — seven giving all their time to the work ; and four, evenings and Sundays. Oftentimes men who work in the field through the day do good work in the evenings and on Sundays, by reading with and teaching their ne'jhbors. For such work they some- times receive a small allowance from the Mission. By means of our catechists, etc., we have been able to hold service in thirteen dif- ferent places every Sabbath, and in several other places on alternate days. Evening meetings have also been held in addition to the regular work of visiting estates hospitals, hamlets, etc. The native agents did their part well. Sabbath schools have b-een held throughout the field whenever practicable. Only one woman — Mrs. Maliindebeg — has done any special work among women, and she was not able to do very much on account of having a lai'ge family. Tbe great stress laid on this kind of mission work in India, and the success attending it, suggest to UH the advisability of giving more attention to it here in the future than has l)ec-n done in the past. As to growth in grace, wo feel sure that our Christian people, with some exceptions, have made fair progress. Some, however, have disappointed us, but on the whole we've had more than usual to encourage in this respect. The spirit of liberality is also gradually growing among us. This year the contribu- tions of the native Church have exceeded the amount estimated by a small sum. There is, however, much room for improvement in this respect, which we purpose aiming at in tiin ensuing year. The number of baptisms for the year is 82— adults 48, children 34; marriages, 15; cduiniunicants in good standing, 100 ; number added during the year, 20. A long list of kind friends, whom Mr. Macrae mentions with gratitude for the hel[> they have given, closes an encouraging report. ^g-^ XX. Al'PKNDIX No. 11. Mil. coffin's kepokt. Accoming to aiTangementa made at tho boginniiig of tho year, I have given pint of my time from the College to general field work, and largely to the north section of the San Fernando district. This section may bo divided into three, each division giving a group of stations naturally linked together. The first comprises the largo estates of the Colonial Company, has throe preaching stations, two assisted schools and one unassisted. Tlieso stations are two, three, and four miles respectively from San Fernando, and form a good field for a strong catechist, with perhaps one assistaul. The second division comprises a belt of country abutting north on the east, and com- prises four stations. It is a purely agricultural community settled largely by East Indians on their own Imds, a class most hopeful and open to our work. We have a school here, assisted, but owing to the iinpas**ble condition of the roads during the past rairy season the success of the school and mission work generally has been retarded. At Gasparillo village to conserve work it was found necessary, at the beginnin' of the year, to build a small place of worship. This is a large village, with an excellent Govern- n)ent school, of which I am manager, having an average attendance of about 100 pupils. Regular religious instruction is given to the Indian children at an hour set apart by Govern- ment, and a Sabbj\th school has been kept up tiiroughout the year in our new church near by. A Christi) • ongregation is forming here, not yet large but hopeful. The erection of the new buildii j, L \8 given us an excellent centre for this whole division. The third divfa. s'hich extends along the coast from San Fernando, includes at pres- ent three stations, a <<'' reaching north to the south limit of Couva district, leaves no ground unoccupied. There is a large population here, presenting a good field for ini.ssionary work. •■' u.mg up, there are in this section, five Indian assisted schools in which we are interested, and two unassisted mission schools, in all, nine schools in operation during the year. Catechist work is carried on at ten preaching stations, seven of which have regular supply during the whole year, the remaining three occasional. Throughout the year, with a few interruptions, I have given two whole days each week to this work One day has been devoted to the visiting of schools, hospitals, estates, and hoiiies of the Christian people, while every Sabbath is spent in visiting the different preaching stations, and, with the catechist, carrying on the more strictly religious work. In this way it is possible to visit systematically the whole section every tiiree weeks, once during the week and once on the Sabbath. (Mr. Coftiu's work being largely at the College, the above is the outline of his field work during the year.) KEV. A. w. Thompson's heport. At tlie beginning of the year Mr. Coffin removed to San Fernando in the interests of the College, and, for the fifth time in its history, the management of the work in this district fed into new "hands." On taking charge, therefore, it was not to occupy now territory and lay the foundations of a new work, but to confirm work already established and to sec\ire the results of it. Consequently the report is not one of extension, but of development. Quietly, orderly, and as systematically as circumr'^ivnces iJermitted, the work has been prosecuted in its various branches, and with a fair measure of success. SCHOOLS. There were nine schools in operation in this district, with a totjil enrolment of 750 scholars, 32C on roll at the end of the yfar, and an average attendance of 277. lys eivch [)itals, IL' the ligiouB three lis field jrests of in this ,py now iblished but of ;ed, the ess. of 750 Appendix No. 11. xxi. The 8ch(. .. work for the yeivr has been generally satijifactory. In most cases the teachers have been active and diligent, and have approved themselves competent workmen and worthy of confidence. They have had their own trials, not the least among them being the unusually heavy rains, which greatly interfere with the attendance, e.specially in the country districts. The staff is weakened by the withdrawal of Andrew Buddhu, who was a faithful, conscientious and [)ain8t)vking teacher. Health failed, and he resigned, hoping that a brief rest would fully restore him. It has proved otherwise. No hopes of his recovery are entertained. In his removal the mission loses a tried and trusty servant, and one who was "always ready unto every good work." The usual instruction in secular branches was given to the teachers on Saturdays. Bible study, with weekly examinations, was carried on throughout the year, and Sabbath schools wore regularly kept up at most of the stations. CATECHISTS. The same number of catechists were employed as in the previous year, and all gave their whole time to religious work, each in his own district. Sabbath services were held in eleven places regularly, and in a number of other places occasionally. The training work is now done by the College. The regular, thorough and systematic " drill " which it affords has already produced excellent results. More studious habits have been ac(juired, and the work in its various phases has been more intelligently per- formed. A very marked improvement in the manner of conducting services is manifest. The College work is thorouglily enjoyed, and everyone is eager to secure the benefits of it. At the same time there has been no abatemert in zeal for what may be called the " field work." , In season and out of season they have gone forth sowing the good seed of the Kingdom. With fidelity and zeal they have labored, each according to his ability, and the conduct of all has been satisfaetijry and commendable. Temperance work, under the care of Miss Fisher, has made good progress. Much time and energy have been bestowed upon this very important work. Several well at- tended and interesting meetings were held and good additions made to the pledge roll. A growing interest is noticeable in Sabbath school work. Miss Fisher has had an active part in this too. STATISTICS. • Baptisms during the year— Adults 26 Chiliiren 32 Marriages 8 Communicants added 11 Total communicants at date • 1^^ THANKS.

Tho teacher, Mrs. Evorsley, has been vory faithful for yeai's, but has not boon well, and will soon have to undergo a dangerous operation ; but her mind is calm, her faith strong, and who knows that she is in a kind Father's hands. Henry McPherson, Hamilton Cassols, Clarence Carmichael, and John McLood have all worked woll as monitors ; they have set an example of industry and taught in Hindi. The girls from tho Taiiai)una Uomo also como up, and each has a class of little ones. Wo have nine chvsscs, and could have more, but have no teachers. A young overseer also comes when he can and takes a class. Tho regular Sunday service goes on. Afor the Sunday school all remain, and our room is just tilled with such an interesting gathering that sometimes tho catechist can- not let them go till nearly six. So you see oven Sunday is not an idle day with us. A number of women, men and children have been baptized. Wo had the pleasure of bringing forw.ii'd for baptism a pair of dear little twins. They made five out of the family ; only tho father and mother are out of the fold, and we hope soon to welc(mie them too. Our catechist, Mr. F. Davies, has been ill forever a year — just fading away. He is brave and calm, resigned to God's will, though sorely tried by pain and weakness. Some of the Christians made a roijuest that no ono be put in his place while he lived, and otter- ed to help in the work for him. Bravely and well have they kept the promise. One young woman.

Dickson for his kindness to some of the sick people and children of the village, and to Dr. T. Murray for kindness to ourselves when poorly. We miss our dear president, Mrs. liiuns, more than words can tell ; her kindness has never failed us through all the jiast years. We will always cherish her memory and pray that God will bless her and reward her for her n(d)le ertbrts in the cause of all good works. From the F. M. B. and the W. F. M. B. we have received nothing but kindness dur- ing the past, and wo trust that in the future the same will bo granted to us. As youth, hop \ and strength pass on, we feol more and more how precious are the prayers made for us, how deeply wo need the warm, personal sympathy of Christian friends, and still more the grace and love of our Heavenly Father. The years i):t8s on, and leave fewer to work ill ; the night conies (juickly, then let us all be up and doing ; let faith have its porfett Work, an', nee that the heathen are Christ's ; then the helping will not Hum so hard, long anu tho older boys, lads of from twelve to sixteen years, to gather in the cliildron. They have doiit! fairly well, although iioi ns well as older and more ex[)erioneed handa. Uut when wo speak of tho ditficnlties we have in securing regular attendance, there are exceptions wiiich must not bo overlooked. Some of the eiiildraii, heathuii as well as Christian, have attended very regularly. Four have made over 4(J0 attendances, and thirty-one over .'100 out of a possible 4.'{0. Uible ItBHoiis, Hindi and Eiigligh instruction, have been given as iiBual, and the sew. ing and monitor's classes have received the same attention as in former yearn. Once during tho year wo were visited by death, and ^gan work in ^lanahanibre I have not been able to go to Tere Village, but hope to render some assist- ' ance in both schools next year. My sincere thanks are due to societies and individuals at home for letters received, and especially to Springside Auxiliary and Kentville Mis.sion Band for boxes of mission goo.ls as well as letters. IVIy third year's work is closing. It has been much enjoyed. Not all has been easy and plain sailing, but discouragement is not a word for a soldier of Christ, and thankfully we look up to Him who has promised to be with us even to the end. REPOKX OF MISS FI.SHER. The scho(d work has gone on this year quietly and steadily, and, we trust, with a fail degree of success, flalf an hour every morning was devoted to religious instructitm, and the same subjects were taught as in the previous year. A few changes in my assistants have taken ulace. Geortro Jairganath, who -vas with mo last year, has done purely cate- chist work this year. During the first six months of the year one of the larger boys, James Rajkumar, took his place and did fairly well. He was then removed to take charge of a small branch school in the district. Since that time four of the more advanced boys have assisted me, by gathering children in the mornings, and also by teaching, in suc- cession, the infants » part of each day. Thus, while helping me, they are themselves also being trained somewhat in teaching. This, we hope, may be of use to them later on. We have had the same old difficulty— irregularity of attendance— to contend against ; and more so this year, for the rains have been unusually heavy and freijuent. The number enrolled for the year was 190 ; the average attendance . The converts have been visited in their homes and taught as we had oppor- tunity. Stress has been laid on this work of teaching them. ST. LUCIA. The Mission Council of Trinidad have made ai)plication to have Mr. .1. B. Cropper, chief clerk to the Administrator of the Government of St. Lucia (a young man of liberal education, and for years so deeply interested in our work in St. Lucia, that ho has gratui- tously superintended the catechists who are laboring there\ admitted to the otudy of Theology in Halifax, with a view to his being employed, as soon as prepared for ordina- tion, as a Missionary in St. Lucia. This application the committee felt compelled to refuse, chiefly because the state of the funds will not permit the assumption of any additional financial burden ; but also because the committee are of opinion that trained native agency, which will net involve more than lialf the expense of foreign, should be employed for all further extensit>n of the work in the West Indies. Appendix No. 11. XXIX. Dr. Morton, who visited the island early in the year, presents the following Rei)ort : " January 23rd I left for St. Lucia, by the appointment of the Presbytery of Trinitiad, and returned February 25th. Mr. J. B. Cropper, our agent at Castries, had planned the work and laid out my time-table with so much caro that I followed his plan with scarcely a change. There are four large sui^ar factories at Crown Lands, Mabouya, Roseau and Vieux Fort. At each of these there is a school, and at each I spent a Sabbath ; going on from Vieux Fort to Cannelles, where our fifth school is, one Sabbath afternoon. I visited the three estates in the Mabouya Valley, the three at Roseau, .seven con- nected with Vieux Fort factory, five other small estates cm the south end of the island, and Marquis, on the east coast. The schools are doing a good work, though they have many difticulties with vvhich to contend. Of these not the least is the prevalence on every hand of French Creole Patois, which the East Indian children find much mtn-e easy to learn than English. The tongue has no literature, and only a local and restricted value, so that it is a great jiity that it should stand in tlie way of English. I endeavoured to aid the catechists \n their work, and direct them to right methods so that they mi^ht spend their strength wisely. This I did very especially with respect to the systematic training of all who have been baptized ; and I trust that in this some use- ful work has been done. Generally speaking there is little or no opposition to Christian work among the people. Indifference however prevails, and courage and personal spiritual health are necessary for agents who are left so isolated as our catechists in St. Lucia. I know no class of men who more greatly need and deserve the prayers of the Homo Church. John Allahdua, of Crown Ijands, was described to me by one in authority as a pcrsima grata to all on the estates ar.d I found wherever I went, that C»eo. Sadaphal and Gajhadhar were trusted and respected. Without entering into detail I may state that I dispensed the Connnunion at Crown Lands, Mabouya and Vieux Fort ; at the two latter places for the first time in the h'story of the Mission. The ,'>tal number of communicants is twenty-two (22). I baptized 'M adults and 42 children. I held 33 services for worship anl 13 maitic-lantern enter- tainments, by whvh Scripture scenes wore illustrated on the .slieet and enforced by oral instruction. lii doing this I rode about 140 miles. Half of tliis was accomi)lished through the use of the horse of R. P. Cropper, Esq., protector of immigrants, wliich he kindly lent for this service. For this, not I only but, the whole Mission owe him sincere thanks. I am also 'udebted to iiim and his family for a lunne so often as the work called me to Castries. When out of Castries I usually lived with our native agents, who did all tliat they could to make me comfortable. Constant cliange of bed and water is n(jt usually eoudusive of health, yet after the first few days I grew constantly more comfortuble in the work. I returned to Trinidad in improved health. The school at Crown Lunds, fr nm circumstances not here necessary to detail, had of late ]jas8ed somewhat out of our control. It has now been restored to its original position. This statement implies more concern and anxiety, now happily past, than it expresses. Manjuis recpiires an agent who shall act as teacher and catechist. The appointment of stich an agent depends on the item, therefore in the St. Lucia estimate being passed I recommended the subject to favourable consideration. At Forestier, four and a-half miles from Castries, on the road to Mabouya, crown lands have been reserved for Indian immigrants, and some ten allotments sold to our XXX. Appendix No, 11. Christian people. This settlement is four miles from our school at Mabouya, two miles from Crown Lands estate, and seven or eig'.t miles from Roseau. It is therefore a good centre from which to work the Mission, and in all future arrangements this new settle- ment must be kept in view. The time has now come to consider seriously whether an ordained agent for St. Lucia should not be secured or aimed at. I submit to the Mission Council proposals which I think should be considered apart from this report of work, and I close with the earnest hope that this desirable object — an ordained missionary for St. Lucia be secured." I FINANCES OF EASTERN DIVISION. The unsatisfactory part of the I'eport of the work under the Eastern Division of tlie committee is t)ie insufficient state of the funds. Last year it was found that the small balance of $495.14 in favor of the fund in 1891 was turned into an adverse balance of gi8,.382.50. This year the balance on the wrong side is found to be $9,'?66.34. The receipts for 1892 were 822,257.58, and for 1893, $2(i,247.98- an increase of $3,990.40. Out of this increase, however, for the purpose of comparison, wo must take $2,G23.22 received from the W"st, for which no equivalent appeared in the receipts of 1892, when there will be left a real increase of $l,.'3(i7.18, which ir so far good. The expenditure for 1892 was §31,135.32, making a deficit for that year of §8,877.74. The expendfture for 1893 was S27,''31.82, leaving a deficit for the year of 81,083.81, and increasing the debt from $8,382.50 in 1892 to 89,400.34 in 1893. It should be noted, liowever, that $1,028.49 of the expenditure are a pre-payment of a part of the last half year's estimate for Trinidad, which is not usually paid till July, so that the real deticit for the year is considerably less than appears. For the purpose of a true comparison of the two years, the receipts of 1892 should have added to them 81,311.50, received from Dr. Reid too 1-ite for insertitm in that year's accounts, which would make )i?23,509.24, while the expenditure for that year was 831,135.32, and the real deficit, therefore, $7,506.08. Then the receipts of 1893 should have the same, $1,311.50 deducted from them, making 824,935,42 ; and the expenditure for 1893, 827,331,82, should be reduced by $1,028.49, prepaid on Trinidad estimates, mak- ing 825.703.33, and leaving a deficit for the year $700.91. The true state of matters a.^ thus exhibited, is not as bad as at first sight appears ; but it is not satisfactory, especially when it is considered that tlie receipts from legacies in 1893 exceed those of 1892 by $1,300, and that fully $1,000 of the total receipts for 1893 were contributed by congrega- tions and friends sj)ecially for the removal (»f the debt. A year ago the committee had strong liopes of reducing the debt considerably before the Assembly met this year ; but they now find themselves confronted with an additional burden of nearly eight hundred dollars. They have determined to give the fullest possible information to the eastern sectitm of the Church at once, >n this matter of the debt, by issuing a statement with the reijuest that Presbyteries read it and confer together an the state of our Missions ; that ministers read it from their pulpits, and Sabbath school superintendents to their schools : and that W. F. M. societies and C. E. societies consider it at their meetings. The com- mittee hope that a wide knowiodge of the state of affairs will evoke such a flow of givin:,' as will extinguish the debt before another year rolls round, and thus prevent the necessity of making a systematic canvass for the purpose of soliciting subscriptions, by ajipeals to individuals, for the lifting of this burden from the scheme ior evangelizing the heathen. While the debt remains the counuittee are debarred from any expansion of the work, however urgently pressed by our missionaries, who cannot enter doors opening before them for want of funds to support the necessary agents. Will the Church refuse sutHcient help in such a crisis ? Appendix No. 11. XXXI. III.— MISSION TO THE INDIANS OF THE NORTH-WEST. lecessity ipeiils ti> Ueivtheii. le work. befiU'e luthcient The ground covered by this report ia somewhat narrower than that covered by the corresponding report last year, for, with the organization of the Synod of Columbia the management of the recently established mission to the Alberni Indians on Vancfuivcr Island, passed from the care of the VVinnipes? committee, and the report for this year covers only the missions in Manitoba and the North-West Territories. Ovj work has fallen, as in former y *ars, into two main departments — the evangelistic and the educational. To the first belongs the place Oi honour in virtue of its transcen- dent importance, but it has occupied less of the time of the committee and will have less (pace in this report than the other, because the lines along which evangelistic work can 1)0 most profitably carried on are by this time well understood and show little change from year to year, whereas the work of industrial education among the Indians is of recent introduction and is still in a formative stage. Both in the way of correcting past mistakes and in the development of lines that have been proved prot^table there is room for discussicm, and probably there still remains much to be said as we adapt our work to the successive stages of the advancement of the Indians along the path of civilization. Hut let it i.o said here, once for all, that the work of evangelization is first and most im])urtant, and that our ordained missionaries devote their time to telling and commend- ing the good news of sjvlvation. Some of them are called principals of schools, but thoy are not engaged in teaching ; thty merely have a general superintendence over the industrial institutions which form part of the nnisionary apparatus on their reserves. The extension of the work during the year has been marked by the establishment of one new mi.ssion, which has been begun in a small way amdp on the work of evangelization, by rendering the poojjle less a prey to superstition on tlio i>ihj '':vnd and familiarizing them on the other with the truth as it is in .lesus. xxxu. Appkndix No. 11. Tho Govornniont is cliiiiigini; the method of uifikiiig gniiits to some of the iiid\'strial scliools. In the Ilogina school, for instance, which has Iiitherto been supported entirely by the (Jovernnient, eacn item of expenditure being authorized and each bill paid hy the Government, it is now proposed that the Goveriunent grant a tixed sum ]>er pupil per annum, and that the Church accept tlie responsibility of nuiking ends meet with tha*. sum The principle of this change is cordially approved bj' your committee ; it is believe I that Oi' the one hand it will ett'ect a considerable saving to the Government by i' more economical management, and, on the other, it will permit the Church, under whose auspices the school professes to be, to regulate the afJUirs of the institution with a freer hand. Ilow great tlio saving to the Government will be is indicated liy the fact that '.he cost last year was )#18(j. 00 per [)uj)il, and it is prop.)3ed lo carry on the same work this year at a cost of S120. 00 per pupil. This does not mean that the Church is expected to pay any pai't of the cost of maintenance, for the agreement is, that if it i.s found at the end of the tirst year that |(] 20.00 is insutticient, the sum is to be re-adjusted so us to provide for an annual grant per pupil which will cover all necessary outlay. The arrange- ment with the Government is not yet complete, but it isexpectcd frimi the correspondence now gonig on that all details will soon be arranged. There is evident and gratifying advance in tho attainment of tho children in the various schools. That our schools occupy a creditable place is shewn by tlie fact that Miss Cameron, of the Okanase school, has for tho secjnd year in succession carried of}' the first prize of S70.00 for tiie best day school in the North-West Sui)erintendency. There is no prize olfered for industrial scliools. A somewhat extensive exhibit of work by Indian school children is being made at the World s Fair in. Chicago, and visitors will have an opportunity of seeing not only the handiwork of the young people, but the living workers themselves, who are to go to Chicago in rehiy.s during the sununer for the purpose of showing what is being done in the \<'ay of India." 'iducation and civilization. STONE V I'L.^IN. It will bo rememliered by those who have followed the history of the Mission, that the school house was burned down in the prairie firo two years ago. Since then tlif school has been held in tho residence p(jrtion of the institution. The Government nnder- ttiok to erect another .school building, but after getting together tho material, allowed thu matter to rest. This material has now been handed over to the Mission, to be used in erecting an extension to one of the present buildings. Mr. and Mrs. G. J. VVellbourn still continue their work with otticiency and patience. Religious services aro held on Sabbath and on Wednesday, and the Indians take part. The .ComnumifJii was observed for the iirst time in the history of the Mission, when thr Rev. D. G. McQueen, of Edmonton, conductene of our meetings this month we had about 100 prese. ^:. •■ t try to arrange to have three meetings each Sabbath, one on the reserve and 'o at mission. If I am able to be homo in time for tlie evening service at the missi'v., prfcLoii ; if not in time, then the teacher takes that iiH'eting, as he does the other • 'ini during thcdaj" at the mission. These are morning and evening services, with I>ibk . iss and Sabbath scliool. The attendance at the mission is made up of the scholars, moso engaged at the mission, and a few from outside, making the attendance abou' iy. " I need not speak of the ili.iiculty of going about from place to place during the winter, with snow deo)) and constantly drifting. Two span of ponies were not able to do the work. One night your missionary had to walk ten miles through the deep snow and against a snow stoi'm — ponies done out. Another night he slept in a snow-drift — themoraeter 40 below zero, and not a few nights in the filthy houses of the Indians." YELLOW calk's RESERVK (oOOSB LAKE). We were not able to visit this reserve as often as we expected during the winter. Mr. Calder is farm instructor, and his house has been a home for your missionary whe.i doing mission work on that reserve. I trust both Mr. and Mrs. Calder are not only farm instructors, but also missionaries among this people. The people fvre nearl," all pagans — still we always receive a welcome from them. They appear to be glad to see us ; listen attentively to what we have to say ; toll us of their worship and why they refuse to accept of the ( tospel. They are still held in bondage by the fear of their old gods, the Thunder and the North Wind, but many of them are able to see the folly of worshipping these things and are held in bondage by the fear of their friends. The peojde are wishing to get a school on the veserve. They do not wish to send their children away fri>m home. Yellow Calf said to me, "For two years I tried to follow the instructions of the white man. I found they were good. I began to till the soil, and I saw aV)out me a good living. I tried to get a school for our children, and I thought we woukl all become Christians, but my brethren would not help me. They would help me to eat what I earned and they would talk ill of -.iie for trying to live like the white man ; and wlien I proposed to become a Christain, they hated me ; and not wishing to live in this stato, I went away, and I have been away most of the time during the past three years. I am now back on a visit, and if I get enco>'.ragemcnt from my own XXXVl. Appendix No. 11. ^^ ;V.^ people, if we all can be like one man, build a school for our cliildreu, put up a church and meet together as Christians on the Sabbath, then I shall be s^lad to stay. If not, then I shall ^o back to the American side, where I can live with Indians who live like white people." Although Yellow Calf speaks thus, ho has not yet made profession of faith in the Lord Jesus, but I trust the time is not far distant when he will be able to throw aside the fear of men and follow his conscience. There are only two on the reserve who are professed Christians. SHE-SUEEP'S, Here the people are still more opposed to Christianity. I drove down one Sabbath evening — Mr. Calder going with me. At the appointc "er prompting them is the hope of some worldly gain. We trust, however, that not only those six, but many others shall become not nominally, but truly converted men and women. In these we notice a change for the better. They are becoming more iiiuustrious, more furniture and cleanliness appearing in the houses. They are beginning to have a more independent spirit and more ashamed of begging. Children going home on a visit are soon brought back, and they come clean and with their clothes well mended. Some go so far as to offer assistance iuauppurting their children at school, :uul the Sabbath is observed by not a few. These are some of the changes we notice with those who wish to become Christians. OOCHAPAWACE. This band has always been the most backward and the most opposed to Christianity. They have among them a few medicine men who do all they can to keep back civilization and the teaching of the white man, but these are losing their influence. One of them said to me that one of his gods (the North Wind) has been hard on in this winter. He killed six of his horses. We had .some good meetings with this people during the past winter. At some of these meetings every man on the reserve who was able to be out wfis present — some of them having to walk seven miles. I have been led to fear that they came for the loaves and the fishes. Wo generally brought a little lunch with us, and at the meeting had a cup of tea and something to eat. We frequently gave a lunch to forty in this way. Was it a waste 1 They would all eat and be satisfied and the lunch would cost us less than $1. At most of these meetings the chief medicine man was present. He would speak after the meeting, saying : " Oh my friends, these are sweet words McKay is telling you, li XXXVIU. Api'kndix No. 11. they are ni if he had huk'H- in his mouth, hut I am ivn old iiiiui and I v/'wh you all to bo careful what you do. Go slow and then you shall not be sorry." There are suvun in this band whose namuu wo have as tlioHO who liro wishinfi; to be- come Chriutians. They have a little light and are beginning to see. At one nioetiii^''a close an Indian said, " These are good words spoi^on to-day. Wo are pleased to hear them. Why have you not spoken these words before t" I reminded him of a meeting we iiadei>,'!it years ago on the Humo Hpot. Mr. Flett and myself preached the wime (ioapel, but tiien there was no light in it, while now there is a little light. Ho said, "The Indians are like children. They don t understand and need to be *old again and again. Gome often and speak these same words to us." To one home I was invited to go to see a sick young man. Hero I found tive of the leading men of the band. They said, " We have been praying to our god to rai.st) up this young man, but wo fear he is getting worse. We know your(Jrod is strong and that He is able to laiso him up again. We want you to pray to your God for this young man." Wo have said much — preaching, speaking, trying to persuade, but still with the many it is " wait a little, wait a little." There has been much sutTering in this band during the winter and many of tho poor have been helped. We have now made this a rule, that only the helpless ones shall be helped by us. In acting upon this rule we nicur the disple.-isuro of not a few. Two young men called at the mission one day. They said, " We are Christians from . Wo belong to your Church, wore baptized by your missionary, and we are glad to call to see you. " "Yes." " We have often heard of you and how you have a good heart and how you help tiic poor Indians." This sounds nice in your ears when we hear it from afar. "Yes." " We have been down here visiting a«id now we are going back iiome and we ask you to give us some clothing." "I help only poor old men and old women and sick and helpless ones." " Can you give us notliing ? " " I can give you work." " We don't want work, we want clothing." " I can't give it to you." ' i'hen you are like the Devil." The young men leave in a rage, but soon come back. " We are hungry." " I can give you dinner for twenty-five cents each." *' iVhat is this, a school for Indians and Indians get nothing to eat ? " " Nothing." They go away again in a rage, but sooiicame l)ack again saying they had some fish. " We will give you those fish, if you give us our dinner." "Three cents a pound." "Oh, we get six at the station." " You had better take them there." The youiif fellows leave. There is not an Indian on the Crooked or Round Lake Reserve that would speak n^ these young fellows did, but I know that many of them have the same feeling and would express it, but think it better p.:licy to act with civility. Although we give only to the helpless ones, still there are many who need help. It is hard to be a missionary on this point. I have fre" She said, " I can't sit out on the ice in such cold weather. I am in rags." The next day this woman borrowed a yoke of oxon, wont to tho bush, cut a load of wood and brought it to the mission, one of tho coldest days of the winter, and then went home and sat all night beside a helpless husband iuida sick boy. A short time ago the same woman came to tho mission, saying that sho had not eaten during the past two days. One evening a poor woman came in and asked for something to eat, saying thoy had nothing in the liou.so. I was busy at the time and gave her no answer. She went away and I thought no more about her until retiring, and in my dreams 1 could see that sad face saying, " Wo have nothing to eat." i saw her in the morning and she told me they had no supper. 1 have dwelt too long on this dark picture, but it is because it is dark and it ought not to be so. I am in sympathy with the agent and tho Indian Department in trying to throw this people more on their own resources. They are on tho right track, when thoy make the strong work for their living, but it is a hard thing for them to find a way of helping the old and feeble. Thoy may send some food or clothing, andtho stnmg young fellows will eat tho food and cover themselves with that which was sent for their parents I have been proposing to this band that if they build little houses for tho old and helpless ones near tho mission, we will feed and clothe them during tho winter months. This is a matter I would like the committoo tung Indian who has for several years acted as interpreter and organist for Mr. Mc.^ thur, and who was of great assistance in Christian work on the reserve, accepted d':ring the year a position as teacher of a band of Indians near Delo- raine, Man., whe.o ho is maintained by the Young People's Society of Christian Endeavor ot that tnwn. okana.se. The r.ev. George Flett, in spite of his advancing years, continues to discharge with vigour th i work of this mission. When he is on the home reserve, at Okanase, he conducts two t^cxvices each Sabbath, one in the church and one in the home of one or other of the Indians on the upper pan of the reserve. Fre(iuent vi.sits, and twc or three times in the year lengthy visits, are paid to reserves at a distance and especially to Rossburn, where a little house at a cost of $160.00 has been erected for the temporal y accommodation of the missionary. Mr. Flett also visits the Rolling River reserve, near Minnedosa, the nomi- nal headquarters ot a band of Indians who are as yet wanderers. Great progress has been made at Okanase since Mr. Flett settled among these people as their first missionary. They may now be fairly regarded as a Christian community. The school, as in former years, has prospered under the care of Miss M. S. Cameron, who is now married, and is known as Mrs. Forsyth. For the second time in succession tiiis school won the Government prize of §70.00 (which goes to the teacher), as the best Indian day school in the North-West Superintendency. Mrs. Forsyth says of the last quarter's work: " The attendance during this (juarter has not been quite as good as formerly, owing to the severity of the winter, and the long distance most of the children have to walk to school — the school-house l)eing situated at one end of the reserve. Tlu; old ones made brave attempts to come every day, often getting frost-bitten on the wav. The agent supplied us with rice, and on cold days we made them a warm dinner of soup. During the severest part of tlie winter wo discontinued the Sabbath school, l)ut when tin; weather grew milder the girls asked for it again, and 1 had them come to my house. We closed school on Friday, Slst March, with a little feast and distribution of pi''",es. The children had been working hard at the cateciiism with a view to the rm " Mrs. Forsyth's place as teaclier has been taken by Miss M. S. Macintosh, who na_ .n teach- ing for several months at the Crowstand. rORTAOK lA rRAIRIE. A letter recently sent by Miss Fraser, the matron, to bo read at a meeting of the Woman'.s Foreign Missionary Society in Winnipeg, exhibits so fully the clianged condi- tiim of this school that it is reproduced in full. "In answer to your request I shall try to give you an idea of what the work of our school is now, in comparison ivith four years agi>. The beginning I cannot give, but from the cliildren have gleaned something of wiiat the fir.st workers in the school had to contend with. Topsey having been thei-e from the first, is the one who can tell of all the changes, and she often tells the others of what used to be, and what is now. It is hardly necessary to say, that Topsey retains a warm and honest feeling of love for her tirst toaclier ; her regard, and I may say love, for Miss Wight, the one who lir.st taught Topsey to fee) that some one loved her, and tliat she was in tiie world for more than mere Appendix N^. il. xliii. drudgery ; for young as tho child waa — scarcely six years old— she was almost bent over with the hard work that had been inflicted upon her. She came into tho world hated by her wicked mother, so nothing was too hard for her to do as she grew older. Is it any wonder that she bears no love for her mother, but gives the love to ner "school mother' ? " I have wandered from my subject. Returning to it, I shall tell you first a little about our home. As a building, it is very much more comfortable than it was four years ago. Instead of the one building, we have a separate school-room, where the attention of the children can be kept, not disturbed as formerly, by one passing through to attend to the kitchen work, or to wait from lessons till the school-room desk and table be set for the dinner, &c. Now we have the old school-room as dining and living room for the children— a new and separate kitchen — a pantry and cellar, highly valued necessaries — a comfortable and cosy sitting-room for the teacher. I mention these, as they wore unknown to the first teachers. Instead of the two pupils, who never went home without permission, the number now is sixteen. Topsey and Louisa were tho two, and their influence tells on tho sixteen. During the past year there has been almost no difficulty in keeping th ese children at school. There are three others whose names are on the roll whom we hope soon to win as members of the school home. There are a few others who come and go. We do not, however, expect our number to be much larger, as the older girls must soon leave to work for themselves. One pupil is engaged as a general servant in the town. But as they leave to work for themselves, tliey still look upon the Home as their home, and we hope its influence is always to be felt. " In the school-room the children are bright and attentive, love their work, and try to outstrip each other. In housework, sewing and knitting, like all other children, till responsibility is felt they must be watched, coaxed and pushed along ; probably a littlo extra watching is necessary, owing to the first training ha\ ing been too lenient, for an Indian mother who loves her child thinks it her duty to spare her child when young, as 'she needs to work hard enough when she marries.' "With our family of sixteen we arc a h.appy circle. They are contented and cheerful, kind and agreeable with each otl.'3r. One away of our sixteen is as much missed as one away when our number was but four (jr five. In tho life at the tipis the improvement is easily seen. The winter hut, instead of being without light and air, has a window or two and a properly made door ; inside shows improvement by being floored and kept clean. A few jxjssess a kitchen stove, chairs, a sofa, brackets and shelves for dishes, clocks — and in one tipi, civilization is so far advanced as to have lace curtains on the windows. True, everything is yet in a very crude state. One coming now, for the first time, would see it this way — but (jnly those in the work for years can note and welcome every littlo change for the better. " 1 wish I could tell you how our hearts thrill with pleasure as we note the wishes for improvement. But greatest of all is tiio change in religious life. The services lield in the tipis have been the strongest card in gaining the confidence of parents and children towards the school. At the beginning, the grown up ones could not be induced to meet in any one place, no matter how often invited. Wherever a few ctmld be found together a short service would be held. Sometimes they would all slip away before the first hymn was finished. The first encouragement was when a gi-oup surprised in this way remained till the service was over. For about a year this went on. Then a meeting was hold in a tipi of one who cared not which side won. After a time more were willing to lend their tipis ; then a little later on one began as interpreter, then another was induced to read a hymn. These were little things, but oh, how they gladdened our hearts. God's blessing was given and the work continued, and continues to improve. Now we have a church tipi easily filled — an average attendance of fifty. Several of the Indians engage in XllV. Appendix No. 11. prayQr— one interprets grandly— all take part in singing. God only knows the joy that conies into our hearts as we look over these changed faces and see the poorest and most ignorant of the poor tired women enjoying the service. She cannot read but listens eagerly while the word is being read ; her lips move as if she is singing, and in her heart we trust she pray.s. " There is danger of making my letter too long, it is so easy to talk of the children — how candy had to be thrown at them to stop them as they ran from our sight. Now they come running to see which can get hold of hand or dress first— and the "Many differences ; but I must refrain or you may tire of my story. Perhaps I might say, • Yes, it is easy for a mother to see the good in her own children.' We do love our little Indian children enough to see the good in each, and I trust enough to see their faults, and with our Father's help, do with them and for them what is for their good. "We are glad indeed to feel that your Society with our many other friends are interested in this, as well as the other schools. I have left out any of the discourage- ments, but you know what many are ; and when we feel so many are interested in us, are praying for us, and are ready to help us, then discouragements are easier to bear. We need them, we know, and thank God for the dark as well as the briglit days." Miss Annie Fraser continues to act as matron. Miss Essie Huston, the teaciier resigned at- the close of the year to take charge of a home of her own, and her place has been tilled by the appointment of a Miss Sat.'. Laidlaw, of I'arkdale, Tort.nto. The interval between the departure of Miss Huston and the? rival of Miss Laidlaw has been kindly supplied, ♦^rs'- by Miss Sinclair, and latltjrly by l»Uss Walker, the former matron, who, to come to oui reserve, gave up a, well-earnM ho'iiuy which she was enjoying at home. PIPESTONE. There is a small band of Sioux laiiafi'- south-west of Virden, in Western Manitoba, numbering fourteen families, with 53 s'-oiil^ -'ho are continuously resident, and in addition a floating population of about twenty. T!. ;teople have hitherto been spiritually desti- tute, but during the past winu c ..Jio You'^jj Peopitt's Society of Christian Endeavour belonging to the Presbyteria- Church in Vi'rden, was moved with compassion for them, and v.-i i to them a missiona.-y in the per?i,n of Mr. Thomas Shield, an ordained Indian missit.nviy, wlv had served his app."e..ticeship under the Rev. John P. Williamson, the veteran Si'jUv .uin; • nary of Dakota, frcm wliom he brought a commendatory letter. The ost i mis.«inn is not Iarg2--l8'20.00 a month— but it proved rather a heavy burden foi iL Viivien Society, apirited as it was ; ind when an appi al was made to the committee, it became responsible for a part of the sum, till some one of its I'lombers can visit the reserve and advise what is best to lie d(jne. It is hoped that some of the children who are now being instructed by the missionary can be transferred to Regina. NOTES. No report of the committee would be complete without grateful acknowledgment of the help received from the Woman's Foreign Missionary Society. The large sum of money which it raises year by year for the evangelization of heathen women and children, has made itossible the recent exten8i(m of our work in the way of boarding and industrial schools — a system of training which is already achieving an improvement in the morals, the manners and the intelligence of the children, such as never could have been expected by means of day schools, where the teaching during the day, however good, is too often neutralized by the l)lighting influences to which the pupil is Mubjeot morning and evening in a pagan home. In additi - to the thousands of dollars contributed annually by the ladies, they give with unabating int''''- st and with increasing adaptation to the needs of the recipients, supjilies of clothing, by which the missionary is able to relieve the necessities of Appendix No. 11. xlv, the helpless and the aged, and by which the ex[ enso of clothing the children in hoarding schools is greatly reduced. In proportion to the increase of skill in the industrial depart- ments of these schools, the ladies have sent generous supplies of materials not yet made up for dresses, stockings, etc., and of these the youthful apprentices construct garments for themselves — the boys in some cases as well as the girls learning to knit and mend. The Western Missionary, published under the auspices of the North-West Syncpd, continued to give half its space to the dissemination of Indian mission news, and it has had a good influence, not only in increasing the interest in missions in general, by making it more intelligent, but also in one or two cases, at least, in inspiring a desire to engage in this work and in causing young people to devote their lives to the spreading of the good news. With a view to securing the benefit of the larger circulation of the Presbyterian Record, of Montreal, the Western Missionary has been merged in that publication, and will, it is hoped, prove in this form more useful than ever. The Winnipeg committee has continued to hold its meetings fortnightly— an arrange- ment which, while it makes a heavy demand on the time of busy men, enables it to keep abreast of its business more satisfactorily than a system of less frequent meetings. SUMMARY. Not including the Alberni "lission m British Columbia, there arc thirteen Indian missions which cover twenty-one reserves. Regular services are hold at 29 places by seven ordained missionaries, who are assisted or in some cases their places are taken by 19 helpers, such as teachers, interpreters, matrons of industrial schools, if the like. There are 201 Indian comnumicants — twenty five were added during the y. "r, and eight removed, leaving a net increase of seventeen. There were eiglit baptisms oC adults and thirty-two of infants. These missionaries have a strong claim upon the sympathy of the Church. Wei-o it not 30 busy, theirs would be an utterly lonely lifo. They do nut live beyond seas as many of our other foreign missionaries do, but nioit of tl.o.oj are scarcely less isolated. They are usually far from the cheering .su(>pnrt of Chrntian neighbours. Their houses are away ofi' on the prairie, remote from railway aiid market, whera they experience to the full what we (in whose lot this njes r.'>t, oi-r ur) are pleased to call the minor inconveniences of house-k(;eping. And what is worst of all for the Christian whose spiritual life is sensitive to its sarr'jcindifigs, they live among the unspeakably deadening intluencos of r. hec Ji nisni v/hir;!* liulis industry ami energy, saps morality, and kills spirituality, except, i.ir the man who keeps very near to Him who is the author of all his life. aients, the life is not a cjlofi-iiy one. The Indian o of gofls whom he does lun attempt to picture in discovei':* in the unseen cr the intangible-- the aun, Chore is something of a simple dignity about him too, lough often in florid and grandiose fashion, to the il will, about his faith or his personal experience. Is he not a more hopeful subject than that upon which the home missionary often spends his strength in vain, that soi d worldliness which grovels and can appreciate no gospel higher than that of " getting on '' ? The missionaries in all parts of the country find that the prejudices against Christianity are breaking down and that the Gospel is making its way by its own inherent and self-evidenchig power, where in earlier days it could secure no hearing whatever. The consummation of our work is not yet at hand. Possibly it is far distant, for even those who have accepted tlie Gospel retjuire much loving and watchful care, but there are many signs that the Lord's word does not return to him void.

Mr. Gaulil, whose name appears in the rejjort, reached the field in the Fall, and has entered upim his work with such enthusiasm as to elicit fre([uent references of appreciation from Dr. MacKay, whose co-worker he is to be. Dr. MacKay expects to return to Canada this year, in order to arrange for the education of his children, and his voice will thus be again heard in many of the churches, pleading for the cause in which lie has been so remarkably blessed.

NoTK.— The Committee authorized Dr. Mackay, at his own suggestion, to render some financial aid to four of the native preachers who were laid aside with sickness aftoe years of valuable servide. Although the amount given in all only amounted to .?34, it was much appreciated. Dr. Mackay writes, " The resolution of the Committee regarding our four suffering preachers was read in College hall, before all assembled. Only Chhoa Seng was able to bo jtreaent. He replied in fitting terms, and called attention to the superiority of the Gospel over all the inventions of men's minds, as seen in Canadians on the other side of the globe loving brethren they never saw."

Eight were conducted during 1892, one at each of the following' places ; — Tda-tui-tia, Bang-kah, Sin-tiam, Tsi'ii-tng-kha, La-ma-ien, Pat-li-hun, Tiong Kang, and Chiu-nih. The attendance through- out the year was two hundred and fourteen. On the whole good work was done, and many of the children made excellent progress in the following subjects, viz : — Old Testament C'atechis:n ; Now Testament Catechihrn ; Shorter Catechism; Geograpliy ; St. John's Gospel, chaps. 1, 2 and 3; Psalms and Hymns ; Head Romanized Colloquial Bible ; Write the Roman— Colloquial. The Romanized colloquial is easily acquired by young persons, and is of decided advantage ; still I do not believe it will ever take the place of the so much loved i:liavaet<^rii. The latter are indeed a burden to bear, and the masses cling to that burden. In the meantime Christians are greatly helped by the colloquial. If the Chinese, as a nation, should ever discard these characters and adopt an alphabetical language, it is to be hoped the language would be the English. I verily believe it would be their choice to-day. The Mighty Creator of worlds and King of nations rules, however, and He will make the Kingdom of Jesus prosper, march and triumph amid the ten thousand changes of thrones and empires. There is now a native congregation supporting a native pastor in North.Fonnosa. This church is at Siii-tilim, near a clear winding stream, and in the niidnt of (iod's works, which are interesting, beautiful and grand. The building is of sand-stone, plastered in and outside ; and is at once com- fortable, attractive and substantial. Rev. Tan H.', who was baptized on February 13th, 1S74, is the native pastor. In our mountain and sea-side college as a student, in .several stations as a labourer, in numerous evangelistic services as a preacher and in Oxford College as an assistant, he proved himself a man of faithful, devotional and upright spirit. He is a man of sterling worth who can he trusted in all his labours for Christ's kingilom. There, surrounded by elders, deacons and members, he is actively engaged building uji th. cause of our Redeemer. They prot-iise him $17 per month, i. e., .S204 Mexican a year. Appendix No. 11. xlix. From the beginnint; of the work there till 1891, 205 persons were baptized, viz. , 79 men, 60 women and 6C children. Death, however, has laid heavy hands upon them, so that they need to be diligent so as to support their pastor. To have native churches, with tMlive pastors, supported by native members, has beeen our stead- fast aim since the work began. I am, after 21 years in the field, more convinced than ever that we are on the right track, and with further patience, perseverance and prudence will see more and yet more of Jehovah's wonderful doings amongst the sons of men in this beloved isle. We have now six additional stations, thus making in all fifcy-six. They are the following :— Tionff Lek,— It is a Chinese town about 20 miles away, and stands midway between this and the city of Tek Chkiim further south. It contained the best lod^'ing house in North Formosa, and was our usual halting place on the main road up and down our field. Indifference characterized the inhabitants Jiiring all these past years. Several visited our station at Thdd-hny, and throughout 1892 we gave i>articular attention to them. That was easily done, for the railway passes near the oiitskirtH. A hoUHf was rented by the twenty or thirty interested parties and a preacher sent to labour there. On many occasions I addressed a crowded house of eager hearers. We were not strangerx to them, so the interest manifested was of more value. There is another town only a mile away. In-khut-ii is a large hamlet on the table-land south of us and in the midst of lovely tea-planta- tions. The f.-irmers erected 1 a chapel themselves and it was only after sun-dried bricks were des- troyed by storms that tluy were assisted. Upwards of thirty at least profess Christianity, whilst friendly hearers often fill the new building. Mr. Gauld was at the opening and we had a profitable time. When there over night an old teacher, tiO years of age, who was formerly full of Confucian- ifliii, stood up in the midst of a large group and declared his faith in the Christian religion. His wnrds fell on the ears of some as a thunder crash and all eyes were riveted on the trembling, aged man jis he exalted God the Creator and Christ our Redeemer. The most active man there was, a few years ago, a terror to the neighbourhood, etc. His wife and children are very zealous hearers, TM-iji^.—l was at this place last October and found that the parties interested in our work spent .$50 repairing a hoiise which they bouglit for gospel services. On Oct. 28th I wrote that a neighbouring station volunteered $10 to help them ; also that the Thti-gd teacher who led the movement was ill in bed, etc. He went home above the following day after our departure— fell asleep in Jesus ; grand ; He was once a Confuoianist of the deepest dye. We photographed the venerable convert to Christianity. From 20 to 50 meet regularly every Lord's day and a preacher proclaims to them the way of life. He is indeed one of the four invalids about whom I wrote some time ago. 'I'here ia a large Hak-ka town near at hand and in due time there will bo an opening for our Master's work, He-iO-ii is a Chinese hamlet about four miles north of Tamsui and In full view of the sea. We liave been doing evangelistic work in that region regularly during the past ten years. For fully /our years the peasants have been i)leading for Christian teaching. Last year a preacher laboured there because a house was arranged for services. When we decidad to erect a suitable building, many contributed, and the work went on vigorously until terrific storms destroyed the materials. Still, I aildressod a crowd last Sabbath in the new chapel, which will be opened this month. A native ottioial there is one of the most active workers. A Tauist priest in the vicinity is one of the most eager hearers. His pet idol is now in my museum room. Several young men ridicule idolatry and all its vagaries.

But that hope has been dis- appointed. Upon the advice of his physician, Mr. MacDougall reluctantly handed in Ida resignation, which has been accepted by the Committee. Mr. MacDougall, however, continued in the service of the Committee until the end of March, during which time he visited many congregations throughout the Church, and did much good in stimulating an interest in this work which he has so much at heart. We trust that he will be much blessed in the Canadian congregation of which he is now pastor, and doubt not that his interest in the Foreign Mission work of the Church will continue an.

MacVicar had been for some time afflicted with insomnia, and fears were entertained lest they, too, would find it neces- sary to leave the Mission and return to Canada. After a long period of patient, anxious waiting, the medical members of the stafi' decided that in order ta save life, it was neces- ary that they should leave Honan without further delay, which accordingly they did, and have happily reached home in time to enable Mr. MacVicar to appear as Commissioner at this meeting of the Assembly. Mr. MacVicar has been so closely identified with the Mission during all the troublous years of its existence, and has rendered such valuable service in different ways, that he withdraws for the present amid universal regrets. It is the prayer of the Committee as well as of the Honan Presbytery, that, after a year's rtst amongst her friends, Mrs. MacVicar may be so fully restored to health as to enable them so resume the labours from which they have for the present retireil. We are thankful to the Author of all our mercies, that at the date of the latest communications all the other members of the staff were in the enjoyment of excellent health. The safe arrival of Dr. Wm. Malcolm and Mrs. Malcolm, Dr. Lucinda Grahe-xi, and Rev. Wm. Harvey Grant, in the month of November, greatly cheered the hearts of our missionaries. Mr. Kenneth MacLennan is under appointment, and it is hoped that it will be found possible without delay to send others still, not only to take the place of those who have retired but so to strengthen both stations that it may be possible for each of the missionaries to enjoy an annual period of rest without leaving the station so weak-handed as to imperil the work. The following report from the Presbytery speaks for itself. Every heart that loves the cause of Missions and the salvation of men, will rejoice in the courage and fidelity of our brethren who have been labouring in season and out of season, in evil and good report, and have been able by God's grace to secure so strong a position amongst that turbulent people. Surely this is the Lord's doing, and to Him be all the praise. This repoit is so full and satisfactory, that for want of space the individual reports are not pu))li8hed. I. — Ch'u-wano Station.

That at Hsiin Hsien, near the home of the Christian Chous, is resorted to by people within a radius of 100 miles and much literature was thus sent in all directions. One book with our station stamp brought a patient from Nan-yang Fu to Ch'u-wang, a distance of 250 miles. Men met at this fair were afterwards frequently encountered in our travels, and books which had done good were discovered.

All this touring is at this stage hardly more than gathering out of the way a few stones. The ground so far appears to be entirely stony, but doubtless there will be good ground by and by. Encouraging cases have been met with, but we do not care to build any hopes on them, for they may, after all, prove delusive. Chang-te Fu has not been lost sight of as a possible station, but all we can do at present is to visit fre(inently and preach This year we have been much encouraged by our receptions by the people there, but the devil can bring a different element to the surface when he sees us too prosperous for the safety of his interests. In one case an ofiicious nnderling who interfered with us was promptly extinguished by tlie Mandarin. Oui receptions were almost uniformly peaceful, a remarkable thing considering tlie newness and extent of the ground traversed. A great improvement of temper was observed in many places since last year, especially in Ch'u-wang itself. As this is o '• centre, it is gratifying to feel that at least their hatred of us is lessening, even if thea .nendship is not marked. Some better comprehension of our object is also observable in the country. But to the vast mass we are still political spies. In the present absence of visible conversions, the following would seem to be the real results of the year's touring : — (o) Advertisement of the Gospel and Medical Work. Scattering Christian literature. ib) (c) (d) Imparting to many some better comprehension of our object in China. Removal of suspicions in many cases by people actually seeing and hearing the foreigner for themselves. (e) Finding of interesting cases, who would not or did not come to the station. (/) Giving opportunity of more light to many who had Scriptures only and could not understand them. Attempt to Rent. — In view of the expected arrival of reinforcements, move accommo- dation became necessary. Renting another compound was accordingly attempted. The gentry, however, defeated the plan at the last moment, and as we could wait no longer a different scheme was carried out. Repairs and Building. — Owing to failure to rent outside, it became necessary to repair rooms in our present compound, fortunately lai-ge enough to admit of it. Rooms for Mr. Grant and Dr. and Mrs. Malcolm were accordingly repaired under Dr. McClure's supervision, and to accommodate patients tlius turned out of Dr. Malcolm's rooms a small building was erected for patients. Evacuation of Premiaes in Lin Gh'ing. — In order to the repairs for the reception of reinforcements, the materials put into our native compound in Lin Ch'ing were required at Ch'u-wang. Mr. MacGillivray was deputed to remove all the foreign doors, windows, flooring, etc. ; to restore the rooms to their original native style as required by the lease ; and to hand the premises over to the landlord. All this was effected by special arrange- ment with a native contractor who did the work in consideration of the unremovable brick, odds and ends, and $3 additional. The materials came out without loss, and were used in Ch'u-wang. The small expense of this evacuation and the absence of loss through breakage of flooring, etc., are gratifying facts. Thus we have burned the bridges behind us, and have no longer premises in the Province of Shan-tung. ivi. Appendix No. 11. Helpers.— The Presbytery of Shnn-tung has given us two, who have done good work. The British and Foreign Bible Society placed one colporteur under our supervision ivnd his work has been so directed as to give more prominence to the expounding of the books than to the mere selling of them, which we consider the better plan. Health. — Those at the station all the year round enjoyed excellent health, but Mr. and Mrs. Goforth and child while at Che-foo for the summer were laid up with severe illness, and hus prevented from returning to the interior as soon as they had experted. Woman's Work. — During the year many hundreds of women and children have visited the compound out of curiosity. The ladies have tried to make plain to them the truth of a God of love able to save. They all say the doctrine is good, and a few say they are almost persuaded, but will wait for others to take the first step. The greed to reap some material benefit prevents them from taking the real interest in the truth the workers would delight to see. When no help is given, they do not come again. Mrs. Wang, the teacher's wife, has been instructed much during the year, and knows much of the truths She has attended Bible Class regularly, takes part in prayer and has a growing knowledge of God. Medical Work. — The medical work at this station has been carried on continuously during the year with the exception of between nine and ten weeks at various times when the physician in charge was absent in Hsin-chen. This year it is gratifying to record a considerable increase in the number of patients attending as compared with last year ; and what gives us more hope for the future of the work is the greater confidence mani- fested by those who do come in foreign methods of treatment. The numbers treated in the year are as follows : — Dispensary, new patients 1103 Dispensary, old patientB 615 Total number of consultations 1718 Tn 1891, total number of consultations for 8 months 1097 In-patients ^ 22 Aggregate number of days in hospital 322 Opium patients 74 Aggregate number of days in hospital 741 Of the 1,103 Disponsiiry new patients, 10(5, or nearly 10 per cent., were cases of ague, which was very prevalent on account of the heavy floods. If we bear in mind the fact that only two opium cases were admitted before the month of June, and that the first ordinary in-patient for the year was admitted in July, together with the absence of the physician for over two months, these figures may give us considerable encouragement. No doubt also these numbers would have been larger but for the fact that for some time much of the country round was under water, making travailing difficult. One patient from 250 miles away was brought to us through the advertisement on a tract or book wliich had found its way to his distant home. Owing to the need of more accommodation and our inability to rent other suitable premises, it was deemed necessivry to erect a building capable of accommodating ten or welve patients. This was done at a cost of about $85 gold, one half of which is borne by St. Andrew's (Que.) Sunday School and Christian Endeavour Society supplemented l)y one or two small private subscriptions, and the other half is more than covered by tlie fees collected from those breaking off the opium habit, each patient being charged about 70 cents gold. Dr. Malcolm arrived at the station early in November and has rendered valuable assistance at both ends of the field. Appendix No. 11. Ivii. II. — HsiN-cHEN Station. PREFECTURE OF WEI-HUEI FU.

Station Work. — The operations at this end of the field have been carried on through- out the year more or loss in the midst of suspense occasioned by intermittent manifesta- tions of turbulence ; and as the presence of all the members of the station seemed advis- able to face the critical situations which thus rose from time to time, it was found impracticable this year to carry the work far afield. Early in the year an anxious day was spent withstanding an attack made upon the mission premises at a time when the streets were thronged with thousands of idle people gathered to witness a spectacular procession connected with idolatry. A persistent attempt was made to burst open the doors and fill the com pound with a mob, which from the amouni of noise and missile-throwing, threaten- ed to prove unmanageable. For five hours the members of the station stood out on the street at the door facing and controlling the rabble and were cheered not a little by effec- tive assistance from friendly neighbours. The Street Chaj)el which forms the front build- ing of the compound, has been opened regularly for over 300 days, and the attendance and order have been a source of great encouragement. At ordinary seasons the average daily attendance has seldom if ever frfllen under 50, and at times of great concourses, such as fairs and theatrical performances, those who entered the chapel were to be counted by thousands. While the normal characteristic of these audiences has been that of shift- ing indiflfei'enco, there have always been a good number who would sit down and listen with varied degrees of interest to the message delivered by the foreigners or native colporteur. As the outcome of these daily preaching services in the chapel, there is reason to believe that elementary doctrines of the Gospel are steadily if slowly gaining circulation through the surrounding country whence the majority of the auditors come. The people of the town itself, while evidencing a certain amount of friendliness in some (juarters, as a rule hold aloof ; and in other quarters a determined spirit of hatred and opposition has flamed forth. Thus, in the spring, a series of organized riots broke out, owing to a superstition that a prolonged drought was caused by an umbrella of human skins (presuraably Chinese), said to be in the possession of the foreigners, and which on being hoisted had the magical effect of scattering the clouds from the sky. An oath was taken in an adjoining temple to drive the missionaries from the place by cutting off' the supplies of life ; and this determination showed itself in the gathering of mobs to bombard the premises with brickbats. After these riots, the mandarin was appealed to for protec- tion, and issued an extremely favourable proclamation calling upon the peoplo to live at peace with the foreigners and avoid the repetition of such scones. This led to a cessa- tion of hostilities till the Fall, when fresh trouble occurred in connection with the endeavour to secure additional premises urgently needed for residence and the extension of the medical work. At the beginning of a large fair, the roof was torn off the best building in the new compound by a gang of roughs from the street who had been well supplied with wine by the gentry and sent on this errand of vandalism with the object of coming into violent conflict with the foreigners or else precipitating a tost of the real attitude of the mandarin. An account of the favourable settlement of this case, or else its collapse, will need to be deferred till the report for next year. But while mentioning these instances of turbulence, we feel it important to call attention to the marked friendliness which other- Iviii. Appendix No. 11. wise prevails as evinced in the growing numbers who C(ime for medical treatment and fill the street chapel from day to day without manifesting more than the ordinary amount of sus))icion incidental to pioneer work in any part of China. On the very afternoon when the roof was being demolished, the Street Chapel was packed to the door without inter- mission, and not the slightest sign given of any knowledge of what was transpiring next door. Nor was the preaching or medical work for a moment interrupted by that occurrence. Thus it will bo seen that the main work at this station has been prosecuted in the Dispensary and Street Chapel. Tiiese departments were carried on every morning. In the afternoon, more or less throughout the year, there has been a steady How of visitors whom we have always welcomed to our homes chieHyinthe hope of dissipating widespread suspicions about our life and the internal arrangements of the compound. Some of tJiose who thus called have been led into conversation regarding tiie Gospel, but the majority have evaded that theme and insisted on gratifying to the full their natural curiosity regarding foreign lands, institutions and articles. In the month of June we had the great joy of receiving into the Church the first fruits of mission work in North Honan. The Messrs. Chou, father and son, having satisfactorily stood the test of a long probation, were then baptized and admitted to thi> pri\ilege of sitting at the Lord's Supper. They have given not a few evidences of growtli in grace, and tlieir testimony is already exerting considerable influence in the neighbour- hood of their village home. We entertain hopes of a large ingathering in years to come through the continued jiresence of the Holy Spirit. Field Work. — As already indicated, the exigencies of the work this year have pre- vented any of the members from carrying out a long cherished desire for an extensive series of tourn. The only outside work of this kind was carried on for three or four weeks by Mr. ' nzie. It is hoped that the strain at the centre itself may ease ott' presently, so as to .it of more attention being paid to this department of the work. New Premises. — At piesent the accommodation for residence and medical work is exceedingly cramped, and our hopes were built on successfully carrying to completion the long pending negotiations for the compound immediately adjoining, which would be fairly adequate to our needs for some years to come. A deed was obtained early in the Fall covering a lease of twenty years, and $900 paid down ; the balance of $400 to be paid when we take possession. The violent opposition of the gentry, however, has led to a series of complications which may prevent us for some time from realizing our wishes. At the present stage of the proceedings, it is impossible to speak definitely of tlie prospects, beyond mentioning that the mandarin is using every endeavour to persuade us to take back the money and so end the case. Repairs. — All of the repairs contemplated in the present compound were practically completed by the middle of the year. In view of the general impression that Hsin- chen will prove an advantageous centre for the work at this end of the field, these repairs have been made with a view to permanence ; but should it ever prove expedient to shift the centre, it is anticipated that the same materials can be used again, as was found the case in the compound recently evacuated in Lin Ch'ing. Helpers. — We have practically had none throughout the year. Our former helper, Mr. Fu, was dismissed by vote of Presbytery at the New Year, and we have not yet been able to fill his place. By special arrangement with the British and Foreign Bible ♦Society, however,, 'nq have used one of their colporteurs for part of the time in this c: [lacity. Appendix No. 11. lix. Health. — During the hot months both Mr. und Mrs. MacViuar were considerably run down and recommended to take a health trip to Japan, which they did. By the time of their return Mrs. MacVicar's insomnia, now of two years' standing, had becomo a cause for solicitude and the medical men advised removal to Ch'u-wang to avoid the excitement Vi'hich was from an early date foreseen in connection with securing the new premises. Mr. Mac Vicar returned for a couple of weeks to assist in the Street Chapel during the fair at which the roof was torn oflf. At the close of the summer. Dr. Smith had a severe attack of dysentery which might have been attended with serious results but for the presence of Dr. McC'ure. The other members of the station have enjoyed fairly good health throughout the year. Woman'n Work, — At the beginning of the year largo numbers of native women, actuated by motives of curiosity, visited the compound. The introduction of Gospel themes only tended to frighten them away, the idea being prevalent that they would become bewitched. Latterly while the numbers have becomo less, the interest has become greater, and a few are now willing to learn. At the Bible Class for women on Sabbath afternoons, the attendance of neighbours is gradually increasing and there is every ground for encouragement. Since November, the married ladies have been assisted in the work by the arrival of Miss Mcintosh and Dr. LuciuJa Graham. The services of Mrs. VVu, the Bible-woman, have given great satisfaction. Medical iVurk. — Notwithstanding the various troubles and annoyances and the fact that the medical work is so much hampered for want of proper accommodation, the work in the Dispensary during the year has been most encouraging. The physician in charge was absent from the station some twenty-five days wiiile removing the remainder of his household efTects from Lin Ch'ing. On that occasion Dr. McClure kindly took charge of the medical work, and on two other occasions also rendered valuable assistance at important surgical operations. Of the new patients reported no less than 275 were women, which is very gratifying at the present stage of our work. In the enumeration of patients only those who were willing to be treated are reckoned, no account having been taken of a large number of hopeless cases, who were turned away with the words, "Too late," nor of those who through fear wire not willing to submit to treatment. Upwards of thirty patients came from a district south of the Yellow River, over 130 miles away.

It is with regret that we have had to cut out many paragraphs from tliis report, for want of room. If the whole report as it came from the hands of the miaaionarioa wore presented, it would be more satisf'aotory to the writers as well as more interesting to the readers ; but its length makes that impracticable. There are in it abundant evidence of hard work on the part of our missionaries ; and many indications of the blessing of God resting upon them. They are crying out for more labourers, and any one who will care- fully read the report will acknowledge that the case is urgent and the cry a reasonable one. It is with much regret that Dr. Elizabeth Beatty's resignation has betlh accepted, on account of the state of her health, but she cherishes the hope that she may yet be permitted to take up the work she so much loves, and for which she is so eminently fitted. Rev. VV. A. Wilson, Mrs. Wilstm, and Dr. Marion Oliver, are at home tm furlough, and will, it is hoped, return to their work in due time, greatly benefited by a season of rest. Fears are entertained as to Miss Mc William's health, but we hope that in the good Providence of God she may be spared for the service upon which she has so heartily entered. Since the last meeting of the General Assembly three ladies, thoi. nder appointment, Miss Duncan, Miss Calder and Dr. Turnbull, have reached the field, and are now studying the language and rendering what assistance they can. Two others are under appointment — Miss Jessie Greir and Dr. Wood, who is now in New York pursuing a post-graduate course of study. REPORT OP REV. W. .1. .lAMIESON, NEEMUCH. I spent three months of last hot season in the bracing air and in sight of the snows of the Himalaya mountains. In conseciuence, I have since had splendid health, and have been enabled in some measure to advance the work alimg the various lines here. THE CONQREOATION. When I mention that I have successfully married two of my young men, performing most of the preliminary steps leading to that event, it will bo seen that the pastoral duties here ditter in many ways from those at homo. The groat and ever-recurring conflict in India is, and will be fought around the Divinity of our Lord. The missionary finds that his infiuence extends and increases in so far as he can reproduce himself in and work through his native agents. To this end I be- gan a series of lectures on the Gospel of .John. As a preliminary 1 gave six evenings to the Inspiration of the Bible from internal evidence. We held our services on Wednes- day evenings, so that all our people could attend, and at the end of six weeks I gave an oral examination on ground covered, and found the result very satisfactory, and purpose continuing the process. The people elected another elder — Benjamin Balaram— so that now we have a session without assessorsjfrom^Presbytery. All the services are well attended by the Christians . and we generally have a good number of heathen, mostly native soldiers ; and their Guru (religious teacher) is very friendly and respectful. r* liH. Appendix No. 11. .,,^i Jr. I proAch three Sabbaths out of ovory month, and every Wednewliiy, varying the services to suit both conununitio». There were eleven (11) added to the Oburoh corniiiu- )iion roll during the year — two by profession of faith. We baptized three infants, and there are throe eixiuirers that have been tauj^ht, but whoHe baptism has been delayed, that their sincerity might be tested. Death came iind took away two of our little flock, one the wife of Mahomed Shah, our catochist in Jawad. The wife of Paras llam died of conHumption, and was buried in Neemuch. Their faith and hope in the Redeemer were bright. HOHOOLH. There are five (5) in all. (1) The High school in the camp. There are various elements that prevent u,s making our schools all that they ought to be. Among the most note worthy are, the several little schools taught by private pundits in ovory part of the city, who draw our lioys away, and the Government school, with its largo staff of teachers and well-paid head master. All scholars in our school must take the Bible lesson, and our aim is reli- gious instruction first. We have five boys that are preparing for the middle 8eho(d examination, who give careful attention to our Bible studies. One is a Christian and a member of the church, and we hope his influence among the others will be for good. I held an examination in all the schools in every subject and branch biught, and gave prizes to worthy students. (2) The school in the camp bazaar for low-caste boys continues about the same as last year. Those people are the gra.ss cutters, and in harvest time the whole family re- moves oiit to the jungle, thus making our attendance fluctuating. (3) Neemuch city school is not so prosperous, owing to the failure of a teacher there last hot season, and partly owing to the numerous amall schools in every part of the city. Just now I have an enthusiastic Christian man who is a good Arabic as well as Urdu and Hindi scholar, and he is popular among the boys. He not only teaches the regular Bible lesson but deals personally with the boys and impresses upon them the truth of our Gospel. (4) The school in Jamunia, a village four miles out, is taught by a Christian young man named Bhoorjie, who lives on my compound, walking (Jut and back every day. Although the school is small, yet the influence exerted is good. At tlie examination I found marked success in every branch, and even in this small village the boys can answer fairly hard questions in grammar, geography, and history of India, and are especially <'ood in Arithmetic. Bhoorjie also teaches the Bible to the fathers and brothers of the boys who come occasionally ; and I find very often intelligiiiit answers to questions on the life and work of Christ from old, grey, feeble men, who seem to spend most of their time sitting and hearing the stories from the lessons given from our "Religious book. " From this little beginning who can tell the result oven in our day ? They are at least now friendly and even ready to hear us preach. (5) .lawad. This school has now ninety (90) boys on the roll, and in every branch the success is most marked. I have but one Christian man in this village or city of a population of perhaps 17,000. We need at least two more Christian teachers besides the present catechist. A scholar of the school has been put into a school in the suburbs where there are forty (40) boys. The school is visited by the catechist every day and the Bible lesson taught, and the "Pupil-teacher" instructed in his work. Let me give Appendix N;>. ll. Ixiii. mie «'X8iii|»le of our tcliool work.

To this we bond all our forces. Tuesday and Thursday evenings wo regularly m> to the bazaars, tho other evenings to the several parts of the cities. I usually tako tiie or^^an aliuig with me and we sing for some little titne, after which uach speaker has his turn of tiftoen minutes. There aro often eight of us, which with a bliajan to each speaker, carries our service into the iiiglit, but wo have never had to leave for want of an audience. L often ((uestion the audience on what has been said, and often ask them to follow me while I pniy "Our Father.'' We have little opposition, but the apathy is much inure discouraging. ITINERACY. I spent over four weeka in diatrict preaching, visiting largo cities and .some of the villages within thirty nales of Neemuch. At Mandsaur we got a warm reception by way of mud and stones. We continued our attack on tho same spot, night and morning, until peace and good will reigned, and we were allowed to speak in quietness, after which wo say we can follow mo.st of them into the zenanas and teach them there. J have supervised the camp school, but have been able to do but very little teacliing in it. Here are girls still at the alphabet, and others in classes all the way to the fourth book. Some of them show an interest in their studies, but the want of really efficient teachers is sorely felt when they have to be left to their own resources. I have been much encouraged by the progress made in zenana work during the year. It was impossible to overtake this work in both city and camp, so the latter place had t" be given up. I have two ^ible women employed, whose work is to visit from house to house. We have not visiicd a single house without first receiving an invitation to dd so. Forty houses have been visited during the year. In several of these there has been sick- ness, or some other cause to prevent us for a time continuing our visits. The average number to visit weekly has been thirty-four. In these are twenty-three learning to read, eight doing fancy work, and the remainder learn nothing but the Rible lessons. Wg hold a weekly meeting for women in the school, which has been attended by an average of twenty women besides as many girls. The only attraction is the " baby organ," and the dIiI, old story is taught for upwards of an hour. Wii very gladly welcomed Miss Duncan among us at the new year. She has already begun to do a little in the camp school, and will soon be able to relieve me of the whole of the camp baziiar work. I desire to thank my good friends in Quebec for their continued kindness in sending me again this year a box of most useful articles for distribution among my ))upils. EKPORT OF MISS m'kELLAR, M.D. While the reports of 1892 were being written, I was fulfilling my sad mission to I.on- don. On my return I was obliged to go to the hills to regain lost strength, so it was not until August that I was ivble to come here to open up medical work for women. After some searching, a building was found in which the work has been carried on, so that the date of this report closes the first five months of the work. Contrasting last week's work with the first week's, I can fee that their confidence in western modes of treatment is already on the increase. No longer do I have to put tickets and medicines on the floor before they will be touched, nor does the water used in the dispeupary have to be carted a mile and a-half. At firat, to have mentioned surgical treatment was to have seen the patient fly terror-stricken from the dispensary, but even in this short time so much confidence has been won, that fifteen have submitted to operations ; moat of them [ as far i three urbs of I have among In the lucatiou When ting the the dith- lool, her jn asked or come lest class Mikful ti> (aching in rthbook. eachois is the year. ace hadti> n house ti> In toilo so. )een sick- average to rcail, ded by an ay organ," as already 3 whole of continued istributiiin Luu to Tion- it was not Appendix No. 11. Ixv. simple enough, but meaning much to a people who have been accustomed to let nature unassisted remedy her own abnormalities. There are on an average ten present for the Gospel services before the dispensary is (ipened, then those who come in after the treatments have started are made to wait their turn, so that they too hear the good news. Some make it a point not to come until I am about to leave, so that they may not have to listen, but such are told that another time they cannot get medicine unless they come at the proper time. A Sunday service was started, but had to be given up, for when they learned that no medicine was to be given they left. Without trained helpers the work has been much crippled, for there ix no une fi> enter the oiien door. My Bible woman, who is to me what Aaron was to Moses, for as yet, in Hindi, I am "slow of speech and of a slow tongue," is a very earnest Christian worker, but is too yount- and pretty to be allowed to go alone to the zenanas. The dispenser is a young girl of only fourteen, who does nicely in all that she is instructed, but as her age indicates, is too young and inexperienced to do anything except under my own eye. The few months wiiich I spent in Indore, in the hos[)ital, serve to show me under what disadvantages medical work is carried on without one. But I trust that the day is not far distant when we may iiave a hospital at this end of our mission field. Cliristian colleges ind boarding scliools, of each, one is sufticiont in a Mission, but not so with hospitals. We cannot send our patients to Indore, a distance of 140 miles. You cannot understand h(tw sad and discouraging it is to see bright young lives pass- ing away before our eyes, because the parents and friends are too indifferent to attend to tlie prescribed treatment. You will be glad to learn that the sea and mountain air had the desired efl'ect, and that for tlie last tive months I have been enjoying good health, but the strain of medical work is great when one has to take the responsibility of taking a step which means life or death to the patient. For this reason it is much better that two doctors should be tiigether. We were all deliglited to welcome our new missionaries. Three of us went to Bombay to meet our mates, but (mly one of us became indissolubly bound for life. Miss Duncan is with me hero, and already has made rapid progress in Hindi.

During the past year tliere has been an advance in Mhow all along the line. New stations have been openetl and new fields explored ; additions have been n>ade to our schools, both in attendance and teaching proficiency. New workers have been brought in and our little Christian congregation has increased in numbt-rs. One of my first duties was to get our new building for church and girls schoid begun. Arrangements had been made before I left, and the day of my arrival we 18 ilffi. .? Ixvi. Appendix No. 11. measured the ground and started at the foundations. The work has gone steadily on ever since, and I am now able to report to you the completion of a hand.some and strong building, which I trust will serve the purpose of a church to our native Christ. ians, and school for our girls for many years to come. The building is of solid brick masonry, on a cement foundation, with a brick I'oof supported on iron girders, and covered with an air chamber of earthen vessels to ensure coolness. It has a large main hall, 22 by 50, and six side rooms of 10 by 16, four small rooms 10 feet S(|uare and verandahs on three sides, with a porch in front. The main room is 19 feet high and will make an admirable audience hall for our native congregation. The ever increasing attendance at our boys' school in the bazar ha demanded c< msiderablt ittention this past year. We began in 1892 with a roll of less than fifty and it has increased during the year to more than 100. The boys have come to us to be taught, knowing that ours is a Bible School. We have refused positively to employ the enticing system of inti-oducing the Bible gradually, or making the study of it ojitional. Every boy must attend the Bible class from the first day ho enters the scIkkiI. and though we have driven away a few boys, I believe the rule to be a workable one. We have got a wonderful amount of Bible knowledge into the minds of the boys. Some of. them can tell every incident in the life of Christ, as wcil as the story of the Acts of the Apostles. All know the origin of sin and the means of salvation in Jesu.^ Christ. And I feel quite satisfied to keep up our school work for the purpose of daily instilling such truths into the minds of more than one hundred boys. Most of thein attend the Sunday School ; all can sing our hymns, some knowing as many as fifteen l.y heart. In January last we opened our HighSchool department, teachingup to matriculatinn stiindard, which now numbers 17 boys? The head master, Mr. Anketelie, is a Christian man of no little experience, from Ceylon. He is kind and diligent and will, I have no doubt, make our school a success. Ever since my arrival in Mhow it has been much laid on my mind that the old method of working from Mhow was not in any adequate measure reaching the great traci of country to the south, west and east of us, comprising probably 1,000,000 souls. I visited and was much impressed with Berwai, a town about thirty-six miles south of Mhow, on the R. R. line. Our temporary work there, resulting in the conversion of a young Mahratta of much promise, we felt the more encouraj^ed to take permanent hold of the place. It commands a circle of about thirty villages, the town itself havina; a population of nearly tive thousand. I have placed two Christian families there ; the men preach morning £ind evening in the villages, carry on a school, Sunday Schf)ol and Church ; the women visit the homos and zenanas. Miss Eraser has also opened Medical work, and the Christian men distribute simple remedies. In one of the most hopeless villages near Berwai, Nanu, a drum player, was converted, and we trust from present appearances that he is only the first of many who shall come from the same class and district. I am able to supervise all the work myself by spending the day there occa- sionally. I have also visited a number of the surrounding villages and find the people verj' attentive and respectful. The occupatitm of Berwai gives us control of the whnle district between Mhow and the Nurbudda, the southern limit of our field. Berwai settled, we next turned our attention to the west. Manpur, a town nf about 4,000 people, twelve miles from Mhow, was settled on as being not only a gmd centre for village work, but right on the edge of the Bheel country, a people anmii;.,' whom we have long desired to gain a footing. Manpur is a British village, and its leading inhabitants, the magistrate, doctor, teacher and postmaster, aro all friendly. Here also I have placed two Christian families. The district is not as full of villai,'es as Berwai, but the Bheels in the neighbourhood are numerous and approachable. t Appf;ndtx No. 11.

We have adopted a system which makes one worker responsible for the meeting in a certain village, or part of the camp of Mhow. The programme is varied every week, so that each point gets a series of preacliers. Some one or two of the villages have proved very interesting, and several people express their desire to become Christians. We preach in the market square twice a wi i 'k t" audiences of at times over two hundred. Many people have been stirred up, and at least four of the native soldiers have come to toll me they wish to become Christians because of what they have heard in the bazaar preaching. The magic-lanter.i exhibitions have been accompanied with groat success so far as the numboi'S who attend and the readiness with whicli they listen are concerned. We show only Bible pictures and stories, scjnietimes introducing the exhibitiry prospect of success. The increase in the bazaar practice during the past year has made it impossible for me tt) overtake as much village W(jrk as I would have wished. Much had been arranged for the cold season, but unfortunately I caught the small pox from a patient and was laid aside from the work for six weeks, so that the plans had to wait, but as there is still some of the cool weather to come, we hope to overtake some of the missed work. The womiiu s meeting, which is held every Thursday, is well attended, from forty to fifty being the usual number present. We tind the Sabbath scliool illustrations a great help at those meetings. Our unicju Sabbath school is very large. Miss Ross has charge of the wr a time their faith ; hut the dammed up stream only gathered power V)y the opposition, and to-day we see the movement advancing with oven greater power than over. They are very poor— so poor that often the garbage of the city is a treat, and the only means of keeping body and soul together for weeks at a time. But they manifested a manly independence that somewhat surprised me, when 1 intimated that they must not think that by be- coming Christians they will get work or help from us. They have also been sadly down- trodden in the past, and so it might be thought that by becoming Christians they could Ixxiv.

And tnm- paring to-(hiy with a year ago to-day there is ntom in my heart f(jr nothing but thankful- nosa. Looking at my girls yesterday, as they came into church, I thought that a very gund account of the school might be read in their briuht, happy faces. In numbers we have iint grown very much. Five have left during the year — in every case, except one, on account uf removal from the i)laee. For several months we had two little English girls aged ulmut eight and ten years respectively.

These girls' pari'nts are too poor to pay th'j full fee. We have had throughout the year tho TJiblo class from W to !t a.m. When we began the Epi.stles I thought it would bo so hard to mako thu lessons intei'esting to tho chiltlren, but wo had many dolightfid hours with some of St. Paul's letters, tho girls being eager to look up references, iV:c.

It is good for tho girls to have her as teacher and it is a ndiof to me to bo at liberty from them ono day in soven.

The j^irls were nil gathered in the large hall of the boarding sdu>()l and were not a li'tle impressed witli the beauty of their sinToundings. The walls were decorated with maps, texl.s, and snuill rod, white and blue flags. The tables covered with i)re8ents were in the middle of tlu' hall ; small side *able8 held bouquets of sweef-smelling flowers ; and pots of lilies, feiu.s, &c., were placed here and there in the joom. Mrs. Crosthwaite. the wife of the Agci.t Governor General, distributed the presents, besides giving ten rupees for sweetmeats. Several other English ladies were present, and the bright coloured silk saris of the Par.si and Hindu ladies contrasted with our more sober dross. The children sang the usuiil number if hymns and kindergarten songs, and did their cali.sthenics very nicely. Their happiness is sufficient reward for the extra work implied in getting everything ready 'oi such an event. Not long after this, the private secretary of the Rajah of Dhar wrote, asking me if T would arrange to let the R^ijah and Rani hear the singing of the girls. I chose twelve of the beat singers, and with Mr. and Mrs. vVil'Kio, Miss Oliver and the little organ, we went to their residence. His Highness was delij^hted with the hynuiB (all in his old ujotlicr tongue, Marathi) and was not easily satisfied. }fo gave the girls a present of Rs. 80 witli which to buy sweets, but we talked the matter over and decided to get something nioru lasting, and have now in the city school as a remembrancer of our visit to His Highness, a nice writing table and two cane-seated arm chairs. This cold seasoii the people seem to iiave gone wild over weddinjis, and we havo had to reconcile ourselves to losing nearly .all onr best girls, some of whom have been in school ever since I came t- India. One, who was specially dear to mo, has gone to Bombay to be married. She is'very clover and her knowledge of the Testament is wonderful. It's not merely knowledge of facts, but she loves Christ, and answers (|uestions about sin and the need of a Saviour very intelligently. The Sunday school has been carried on throughout the year with a larger average at-.tondance than at the day school. The papers and tracts given to the children are read in the homes by the fathers and brothers. Two of the women in my Sunday school cla.ss have fur a long time said that they believe Christ to be their Saviour. They learn quickly and seem to enjoy the lessons, but like so many with whom we have to do, they do ndt realize the importance of openly conf ssing thsir faith by baptism. They are no^ rc.idy to forsake all and ffdlow Him. Wo can only continue to teach these and all win are within our reach faithfully and earnestly as our Master by His Spirit may direct, leaving the results with Him who desires that all may bo saved. J. V. SlNCLAIll. KEl'OKT OF .MISS MCWILLIAMS, INDORK. The report >)f my first year's work in Imlia must necessarily be a short one, fur although it has been an important year to myself in many respects, my work durin;.; it does not furnish subject matter for a lengthy report. To mo, tin; chief object in my work during the past twelve months, has been to gain ti knowledge of the language fm- future work. The study of the Hindi language is not a difficult task, so far as the book-work is concerned. One does not re(|uiro more than a few weeks' study to be able to rea;enana work. KKI'OIIT OF RKV. DR. lilfllAN.^N, V.I.IAIN. The year has gone and we would not wish it here again, for it has been one of trial sickness, suffering and death ; and yet. with all, much of the manifestation of God's g )odness and mercy. We have all been ill, very ill ; and one, our darling little girl, who sojvrcei., had a place upon earth that could bo called home, has been taken to that blessed rest, that heavenly home, from which she shall never part. Wo are very thankful to report that after many years living in spare mission bunga- lows, rented houses in cantonments, rented native hou.ses in the odorous native ciiy, in tents bought and borrowed ; we are now writing in tho new mission bungalow at I'jjain, comfortable, happy, hopeful. The now bungalow now practically completed, with out- houses, stoning up the well, and building a good deal of compound wall, has cost about Rs. 8,000, that is one thousand less than tho estimated cost. Though a stone building costs abcmt one-third more than a brick one, I was able to build cheaply of stone, by buy- ing, (1) the walls of a thon unused railway station, and (2) some old piers in the river which people seemed to think, if they thought at all about it, would cost more to remove than they were worth. These wore dismantled and brought over, giving us the durability and beauty of stone for less than the cost of brick. One large room, having throe window and three doors, is intended for and is being used as a female dispensary by Sirs Buchanan. Our staff of Christian workers is small, but they are of such a (juality as to give U8 great joy in our service with them. Ujjain is a large place, tho second city in that part o India occupied by our Mission, and needs more workers. How shall we get them ? There Ixxx. Appendix No. 11. -'I? are young men in our midst that have intellectual and Scripture knowledge qualifications sufficient, if only they had the change of heart. Our prayers are to this end. In addition to the regular weekly service on Sunday, there is also the prayer meeting on Thursday, and the!?aturday evening meeting for the study of the Sunday school lesson. This last has not been kept up regularly during tlie year. A section of the Mihters became so much interested, first in the dispensary, that they came to the weekly meetings for a time and seemed to give promise of fruit. To such an extent were th jy interested, that many of the high castes were raising the old complaint, that we were receiving sinners. And at one time the school was seriously threatened because of them. Some influence came in- and they entirely ceased coming to the dispensary or meetings. But a few of them seem to be really drawn towards Christ, and are again making in((uiries. Mr. Joseph is speci- ally working among them. NVe commend him and them to your prayers. As our Sundays were pretty well filled up and we had no English service, the thought came specially to Mrs. Buchanan, that it would be a good thing for ourselves, and also for English-speaking people here, if we could have a week-night English meeting in the form of a Y. P. S. C. E. Accordingly, on the 10th of .lanuary, 1893, five of us met in our bungalow and organized ourselves into a Young People'.s Society of Christian Endeavour. NVe meet every Tuesday evening, and have found these meetings of great help to us. We have been encouraged by seeing the entrance class boys attending regularly, one of whom, a Hindoo, has become an associate member. Mr. E. R. Fitch, head master of the Mission school, is corresponding secretary. Sunday School work is being uii'lertaken with a little more energy than formerly. Last year, in the examination in Cauadii, conducted by the Commitfcco on Higher Religious Instruction, the boys obtained, in addition to the diplomas, two medals and two prizes. One prize was also obtained by one of the Christian workers in the senior department. Wo have now Sunday schools held regularly in all the three boys' schools and one girls' school. In these all the day pupils are expected to, and do practically, all attend. Then we have also the special outdoor Sunday schools begun by the Y. P. S. C. E. All the Christians are consiilered as workers oji the Sundiiy school committee. Of this class of school tliere are four helil very early on Sunday mornings to catch the children before they leave for their work for the day. At first the people were afraid to have their names written. As soiui as the teachers' little note-book was taken out to record the names, the M'holar either became absent or shewed such signs of making off that the instructor was glad to get the terrible note-book out of sight. Though these schools are always held in the same jdace under a particular tree, on a disabled ox cart, or at a cross road, still it is somewhat ditticult to keep anything like regularity of attendance. Tickets help in this direction ; and when a sutficient number of daily tickets are received, one of the old Christmas cards sent out from home is a great treat, especially advertisement cards that have plenty of colour and the representation of some animate object. Given their choice, a very pretty card of flowers will be passed all but unnoticed, while a woman's face, a boy, or even a donkey would be eagerly grasped. These Sunday schools could be held every day in the week if we only had labourers surticient to overtake the work. SCHOOL. The school, though encouraging in many respects, has not been (juite up to the usual. The Entrance class has been larger than usual, but the lower classes snuiller. However, we have opened two mahiilla schools, one in the Marathi district, and the other in the durzie or tailor section of the city, known as Bhajumpura. Appendix No. 11.

Herbert, the lame boy who was taken up by Mr. Builder and supported by him and after- wards by the Kilgour brothers of Toronto, is now the teacher in tlio Bhajumpura school and is getting along very nicely, with at present about thirty boys on the roll and an average of about twenty-two. He still needs teachin;?, but it will be a comfort to those who supported him to know that he is now teaching others. Those small schools are very inexpensive, and situated as they are among the simpler classes of the people they are a very useful mission agency, for the teacher is also a preacher among liis own people. In the central school, which covers the whole course from primary to Entrance to Calcutta University, the Bible has been taught as usual with care and regularity. Some doubtless have not come because of this, but if we are to bear the name of a mission school we feel that we must teach at least that for which we were sent ; and so the Bible is made to take the chief place in the school. MEDICAL WORK. This year my medical assistant got an offer of a position in the State and I thought it not wise to try to keep him, hence he left the mi.ssion during the hot season. After this the little dispensary became more and more crowded ; the doors, the only place through which air could come, would be constantly blocked with the sick and their friends pressing in to get near the place of healing. The spirit rejoiced at the sight and the opportunity of telling of a remedy for sin. It was painful even to ask them to clear the door that ai*" might come in ; and it was no sooner cleared than others came to take their place. On I worked, scarcely thinking of the little air it was possible to get being defile by the corrupting, putrifying sores and foul breath of diseased persons, but the flesh gave way under this in.sanitary state of things toward the last of the month of June, when the most trying jiart of the weather had gone. I was brought down by the worst attack of fever I have yet had in India. Owing to this the dispensary was closed and not again opened till Nov. 7th. With the exception of a little overseeing of the work, along with the duties of treasurer, I did practically nothing during these months. My salary went on aa usual, and we had expense more t ;in usual ; so any one who has a taste for finances can estimate the profit and loss questiiii, remembering that a good dispensary without hospi- tal could 1)0 built for about Ks. 1200, say $400, and we have been paying for the last five years for the miserable place we have a yearly rent of Rs. 84. Still, during the seven montlis that the dispensary has been open, we have had in the general dispensary 2898 patients, with 5542 treatments, and in the female dispensary the number of treatments was 1411 ; making a total of G953 treatments. The attendance after the long break was small for a time, but has been gradually in^ creasing until we, Mrs. Buchanan and myself, have been as busy .vs we can be, having now between sixty and ninety patients a day. I first give an address and have prayer, (devout India likes to have prayer ofl'ered up before they get their medicine). Then Mr. Josepli a student for the ministry, begins generally in a kind of loud conversational tone, talking to one or more, answering objections, meeting difticulties, and in all, telling the old, old story of Jesus and Hi.s live. During these last months we have found a joy in the Master's service such as v,e never experienced here before. And even when we are tired in body wo have found a gladdening stimulus in the pledge, " I will strive to do what I know He would like to have me do." With a little money from my father, and some of our own, we are beginning a building upon the mission ground in the city to be used as a dispensary and preaching liall, with some space for hospital, and if the needed assistance comes in (a number of the missionaries 19 Ixxxii. Appendix No. 11. have promised help) I want to have an operating-room and one or two rooms for assist- ants. So far the Lord has prospered us in getting good stone for the foundation cheap. If it is His will, the building will be completed, if not, we shall be contented with what He does give. Received for Hospital Building: — Rs. a. p. E. J, Drew, Esq 13 o From patients 299 Total Rs.H4 woman'.s work, ujjain. Part of the time we ha \ no Christian women at Ujjain and then later we got Shanti- bai, the wife of Peter, who took up the school work and h.is had all along a nice little school in the Marathi section of the city. One young woman is especially interesting. She is to all intents and purposes a widow, her husband, when she was but a cliild, having been responsible for a R.R. collision, fled, and has never been heard of since. Tlusyouns^ woman, a brahmini, claims that she is a Christian and wants to be taken in as one of us. 8he is very bright, answers questions well, and attends our prayer meetings and Sunday services, and is not afraid to answer before all the people *^he truths she knows of .Fesus Christ. Already persecution has begun. She wishes Mrs. Buchanan to allow her to learn medicine, and it may be that in her, God is raising upthe proper person to be an assistant. She has not yet been baptized. Later on Mrs. Chirag Masihcame, and though she is a good talker, she has sucii weak eyes that she is not able to overtake much out door work. Mr. Joseph's wife, Mantubai, is also with us and now settled in the new bungalow. Mrs. Buchanan engages daily in the good work; so that the woman's work is beginning to put on new colours. A woman's meeting, at tvhich all the Christian women are present, has been a pleaaini,' advance. The meeting is held in the boys' school, Bhujampura, whore Herbert is teacher. Herbert has the credit of, in the tirst instance, calling the women together. These meet- ings have been attended up to the capacity of the room in which they are held and have been very interesting. One little break occurred when one cf the Christian women attempted to explain somewhat minutely the truth that God has made of one blood all the families that dwell upon the earth. Then one of them began a cry, a kind of Ho. every woman to her tents, " The bhungies are bhungiea and the brahmins are brahmins. " The next week an empty room was the gree'ing. But as those who loved the Lord waited upon Him and talked together in that same little room of the things conconiing the Kingdom, two or three women remembered that they were sick and tliat Mra. Buchanan was the Doctor, Mem Sahiba — a breach was made, and in a few days the people flocked in. With rejiard to the medical work we have to report, that Rachelbai left with lur husband the v.ork of the iuission early in the mission year, and as Mrs. Buchanan was not able to take up the work until less than two months before the close of the mission year, the table of patients does not appear large, being new patients (JTO, and t; tment.', 1,411. In reporting u[)f)n medical work for women, I wish to point out that during the months of January and February Mrs. Buchanan has been daily working in the general disjiensary. About one third of the peo])le that now come to us are women, and these aii' all written fn the general register. About one-half of the whole number of patients treated since Mrs. Buchanan has been goi"g to the dispensiiry have been women ami children. Thus the women also are treated, many of them thinking it notiiing out of tlit way, and others coming in by the back or with their saries over their faces. Appendix No. 11. Ixxxiii. REPORT OF RBV. J. F. (UMPUKLL, KUTI-AM. Amntauts. — In October Mr. O'Brien became Wesleyan Chaplain in Igatpuri. From the first his heart leaned to work among Europeans and Eurasians, and the eomparativo absence of these from Rutlam made it depressingly lonesome to him. It is a pleasant sign of the breadth of Evangelical sentiment that a Baptist can work with Presbyterians, a Calvinist with Wesleyans, and be valued by botli. Two new catechists proved only temporary. The one, good and true if not intensely earnest, left tlirougii family reasons ; the other, apparently fervent and fitted to bo very useful, I felt it necessary to dismiss, because he was not so truthful as a Christian should be. Trfo others. Alia Bakhsh and Abdul Jalil Thetjphilua, have been added to the staflF, who seem faithful and earnest men : and a third, who is meanwhile on trial, also gives good promise. Jairam and Bapu continue the same true folio w-lahoururs as they have for nearly a dozen years proved themselves to be. .Jairam's health has been poor, and his wife also has for months been unfit to teach, but Bapu'a wife now takes her place in the (Jirls' school. Lakshmi bai and Chinnia bai have continued to lal/our faithfully as Bible women. Blind .lohn still reads the Gospels, plays the dliolak, and aids in s'nging. A number of Mohammedans, apparently unwilling to tackle otiiers of us, tried to take a cowardly advantage of a poor blind lad's comparative it^norance and puzzle him with (|ue.stions ; l)Ut he seems to have learned the wisdom of answering them, not from his own thoughts but always from the Scriptures. l<<>lil>aili Siu-rifCK. — As formerly, two in Hindustani, of which I generally take only one, and an informal and poorly attended one in English. At the Hindustani services to count and re'.ord the attendance accurately would be difiieult and distracting, for people keep coming and going, but the estimate of the native brethren, which 1 think pretty correct, is that the average in the morning has been about 75 or 80, and in the afternoons about 40. Sabbath Schovls. — During part of the year have been seven — attendance about 140 ; and, since the rains began, generally two — attendance about (iO. C/n,s.s(',<, — .\ teachers' class, attended by a number of the Cluistiaiis besides the S. S. teachers, is held on Saturdays. A Bible class, attended by most of the native Christians, has been studying Romans on Tuesday evenings. A helpers' class for several months was held for five days a week, giving [ilace to, or taking the form of the S. S. teachers' class on Saturdays, It gener.illy lasted for nearly two hours. First, a report w.is ijiveu of tile day's work, and any especially interesting case was mentioned: and tlieii a book of the Old Testament was taken up ; its introduction, general features and some special passages from it studied. The wliole of the Old Testament and the history of the period intervening between it and the New Testament, were thus gone over .md the Gospels entered on, before the season came for more distant work. In this class, as in private conversation, my eflbrts have been to impress on the native brethren tliat the evanmli/a- lion of India is their work more than ours; tli.it thoiigli I sui)erinteiid their work Iain not their master ; that they are to answer to Christ himself whether tliey are ciear frciii the blood of thiy my own visits to some extent, most of the mahallas and surrounding villages have been visited more or less freiiuently. The people thus visited were with few exceptionH found '.o listen well, and in some cases a school was asked for. It is matter for thankfulness that to this extent the (Jospelhas been made knctwu, but what it amounts to in the evangelization of the people those at home will bettor under- stand by considering what it would accomplish there, among a people already acquainted with the Gospel, with the Bible in their houses and living Christians in their ii'idst. On Friday evenings a service has been conducted at our regular preaching place, mostly by the Indian brethren. The railway station has also been regularly visited, books offered for sale, tracts dis- tributed, and people conversed with. Like some other parts of our work, this tells not so much on our own special field as it helps in the evangelization of the country generally. A nightly class, or service, has been held with some regularity for servants and others on our compound, and latterly a Sabbath afternoon cla.ss for srnne of the same persons and particularly the young lads. A Y.P.S.C.E. has lately been (organized which it is hoped will increase the useful- ness of those especially who are not officially engaged in evangelistic work, and will train the young men for being elders, et*. Melas. — Two in this neighbourhood and one at Jaora have been attended as usual. Some baniyas wasted a lot of our time and gave us trouble by an attempt to prevent our working in the former. The new railway under construction, a Sarae fretiuented by pilgrims, a wood market, and, of course, the dispensary, still receive special attention. The Blieela are cur attraction in the wood market. During a good part of the year they come in large numbers to sell lumber, liamboos, I'ic, and often remain for days at a time, thus giving a good opportunity for becoming acquainted, winning their confidonci' and telling them something of the Word of Life. This year we got a little further than formerly, and it seemed probable that one of the brethren would be taken by them to live among them and teach them. This fell through, probably bocausie their conHdence was not quite firm enough, but we hope it will soon be accomplished. Sales of Scriptures luid other bool^ have been larger than last year and more than twice those of the year before, 7Vf(i7.'< (loafiets mostly, back numbers of Gyan Potrika, &c.), have been distributed in thousands. Oti this we lay stress, finding that manj- will eagerly weLome and lead aloud these leaflets and papers who cannot be induced to spend even a pice on tin- purchase of a little book. Woman's Work. — House to house visitation has gone on steadily. Lakshniibai and Chimnabai have visited ninety-six houses and "places." By the latter is meant such a place as a large garden where a temple is being built, and whore women arc employed in the building. At the close of their recess for their mid-day meal, our Bible women met with them and found a good opportunity of telling them of the way of salvation. Ten more houses — high castes and Mohammedan — have been visited l>v Mrs. Campbell .-done, in which secular instruction is generally given, but often onl.V the Bible story. lu those visited by the Bible women the instruction is almogt entirely religious. Appendix No. 11. Ixxxv. A IVrekbj Meeting for Chr id ian Woui^- has been held for sewing, religious cunver- saticjH, i^'c. A Girh' School has been kept up wiih some difficulty, much indittcronco .md prejudice having to be contended against. There have been a number of irregular attendants, but of fairly regular ones there have only been ten girls and four wtjmen. Three of the women are reading in the Now Testament, two girls in the 2nd Hindi book, and the remainder either learning their letters or reading in tlie Ist book. They I'ave also learned a little geography and arithmetic. Moat of them know several of the native hymns* or Bhajans, texts of Scripture, something of the life of Christ and the Ten Couimaudments. The picture illustrations of Luke's Gospel have been found useful in impressing the Scripture lesson. One of the Sabbath schools mentioned above, and, for part of the year, two havo been for wcncn and girls. Boija' ScliDols. — Near the beginning of the year we secured a much larger and better hou.se for our church, hospital, &c. But this gain led unexpectedly to the loss of our little boys' school, which, though so humble and inexpensive, yet secured the daily religious instruction of a number of boys, frequently changing indeed, but averaging about twenty, who also attended both of our services and the Sunday school on Sundays. I still hope to regain it, and two beginnings have been made, one of which has been due to the girls' school. Some of the girls having brought their youiiger brothers with them, a boys' school has been developed, of which bapu, the husband of the tc.-icher in the girls' school, is now taking charge. The /'cc.s.s has in still greater measure fulfilled the purpose of its existence " (1) as a directly mission or evangelizing agency, and (2) for the training and employment of native Christians. " Besides a little job work, the Mission Report and other Mission printing, 105,000 pages of tracts, 16,000 (.'}2x500) pages of Mr. Wilson's Hindi Book, 49,500 Sabbatii School tickets, and tlie two Monthlies, — Gynn Patrika and The Indian Standard, of twelve (besides llangri, which is supplied only in Malwa) and twenty pages respectively, have been printed. Gyun Vatrihi continues to spread, having this year reached Trinidad, where 5;5 copies go. Its extremely low [)rice renders a large number of subscriptions necessary to make it pay. Over 300 copies are now taken, whicli is noiuly half as nmny again as last year ; but alas 1 tliey are not all paid fnr — at least, not yet. I havo still to say " Like other such papers this may bo expected to take sumo time to become self- suppiuting, but i)V()')ably loss than most of our other evangelizing agencies." It is road and heard l)y more than its 8ubscril)ers. What wo havo heard of in some cases is probably common — several gatlier together to listen while one reads aloud. A number are given away as tracts and specimens, 400 being printed monthly. The Indiati Stundanl in our new eliort It is, in a sense, the paper of the Indian Presbyterian Alliance, tho' the Alliance has never been responsible for it. It was started ,is a weekly on a guarantee fund contributed by individuals. When it was found that the fund was melting away with too alarming vapidity, it was made a monthly. And when it still seemed sinking, an appeal was issued for further donations or for subsidies from Missions. I thought such a paper ought to stand on its own legs after getting so good a capital t.) start with, and calculating as carefully as the data at my disposal allowed, I judged that it could even be made helpful to our Press, and I ventured to make an offer which, after a time, was accepted in a modified form : I, on behalf of the '•'fiffl-li ■' Ixxxvi. Appendix No. 11. *y Pi'osM, "taking over the whole thing and lunninir it hs a buHiness transtictiun," as it was put to mo on behalf of the Publication Conunitteu. The number of subscribers has increased about 50 jior cent., and the system of intimating on the label of each, the time from which his subscription is due, results in fairly prompt payments. So I hope it will prove a substantial help to our Press. Nvw Building. — Through the goodness of Mrs McCrea, of Gait, T have now sufHciont funds to erect a plain but suitable building, and if others be led to provide enough to obtain a pro])er stock of type it will make the work easier for us and those who shall have it to do when we go home on furlough. MEDICAL WOKK. Our hopes of getting Mrs. Ahmed Shall to practice along with hor husband were dis- appointed, and presently wy had to part with liini also, so that we have been without a " hosp tal assistant " almost tliroughout tlie year, except for about two months, when wc had one who proved unsatisfactory. But our own Ramlal had made so good use of his little training, that with occasional advice, he has kept the dispensary open, calmly and cautiously treating s'uch cases as he understood, and refusing those for which he felt incompetent. One case in particular has been deeply interesting — that of a man dreadfully burned in a blasting explosion on the new railway under construction. So large a surface was burned — almost the whole of the front of his body from head to foot — that I had almost no hope whatever of his recovery. But he had been attended at (irst for a few days by a Christian compounder, on the spot, and sent in by him with the hope that we could give him more care than he could, and we had nothing for it but do our best. And Ramlal's faithful and intelligent care— aided occasionally for a short time, by visits from the hospital assistant of the State Hospital — has, by God's blessing, saved him after months of treatment, in which a large number of abscesses had to bo patiently dealt with. He is now able to earn his living l)y light work, and there are signs that the seed of truth have found a lodgement in iiis heart.

The Coniinittee was anxious sopio months ago lest Mr. Winchester should feel it to be his duty to accept a call extended U> him to return to the pastorate of St. Andrew's Church, Berlin. Ajjpreciatin^ Mr. Winchester's sensitiveness as to duty, and knowing that ditficulties presented them, selves in Iiis present work that had not been anticipated, the Committee did not blame him for seriously entertainint^ the proposal to return to a congregation so much attached to him yet it was with sincere satisfaction that it was learned that the call was declined, and tliut he is to remain in charge of this difficult but importfvnt and promising field. •:I MK. WINCHESTERS REPORT. Your Missionary and his family arrived on the field on the 2l8t .\pril, 1892, Mission premises, which we still occupy, were secured (after no little searching^, not in, but on the borders of Chinatown. I. According to arrangements I went to San Francisco on the 18th May, and looked closely into the work of the various Chinese Misbions there. Whilst there are evidences of a great and good work having been done, some facts were forced upon our attention not so agreeable. And perhaps it is more important that we should look the latter in the faco, than the former, if they are to be separated at all. The Chinese population of San Francisco has decreased considerably, and the Missions have suflfered proportionate loss. Work among the Chinese in this country has over been very diffictdt, and the result though of incomputable value, are admittedly not so abundant as appear in some other mission fields. Good was accomplished in different ways by my visit. It was worth much to meet the Missionaries, and to receive hints from some of those experienced and conse- crated brethren, also to become accjuainted with and be able to compare different mission methods. II. Recently I spent .t day in Portland, Oregon. I was specially concerned about (1) Mission Frenusos, and (2) Native Helpers. (1) Of the six missions in Portland (Chin- ese population about the same as Chinatown, Victoria^, only one of them is doing its work in a church, and I am told it is soon to be sold. The Presbyterian Mission have occupied a rented store for many years. Chinese quarters in Portland are divided, and not as well suited for mission work as is Chinatown, Victoria. My judgment is, after getting all the light and advice I could gather, that a building about 25 or 30 x fiO, which can be erected at a cost of ^,.500.00, located in Chinatown, would be of very great value to the work. Anything better seems to me to be unwan.inted ; anything less, insuthcient. Such an erection would do for many years to come. The above mentioned sum was given me by an architect, and ratified by a contractor. (2) Native Helpers. In some of the missions, believing that native helpers are not as valuable as in China, they do not employ them at all. In other missions they are deemed indispensable. It is interesting, and more, to be able to say that in two of the missions converted Chinese merchants preach on Sabbntli days and conduct prayer-"meetings. One of these, I am told, contributes over $1,000 a yiar to missiG7 Average 24 It is needless to quote the trite remark that stiitistics fail to make manifestwhat has really been accomplished in Missionary labours, but the remark acquires special signiticance when applied to the work done among the Chinese in this land. The chief diH'orentiating fea- ture in this mission is the nomadic or itinerating chai-acter of the Chinese within our borders. Within a few weeks 1,200 Chinamen have left Victoria for all parts of the coun- try — the great majority returning to the Canneries. Those at the Canneries will come back tothecity late in the Autumn. In our school since its commencement wo have seen a great many changes in the faces we look into from week to week. Only tive or six liavo been with us regularly from the beginning, a few moro nearly all the time, but the major- ity arc comparative strangers. We have now on tho roll over 50 names with an average attendance of 24. Hence, though wo have not had the opportunity of following up and deepening any inq)ression8 which may have been made, we have had the opportunity of hel])ing to remove from the minds of a not inconsiderable number, .some of their prejudices against us and our religion ; of sowing in their heart some seeds of the trutli ; and ut sending them away with some hint of their souls' need, and the sufticiency and salvation which are to bo found only in Jesus our Saviour. In this way tliey aro made more accL'ss- ible to others or perchance to ourselves in some future day to bring home to their hearts the quickening word which is able to make them wi.se unto salvation, and to give them a place among all them that are sanctified. Missionaries in China have reported that new villages and districts have been opened to them through the influence of some Chinese who had been in America. And that, not always from such as had been brought into the Kingdom of God here, but from some who had received kind treatment and instruction in xc.

If wo could only have a lady Missionary who could give her whole time to this work, and who would learn to speak the languaiif, very great good I am sure would be accomplished.

WINCHESTER, Mimonant. VII. MISSION TO THE INDIANS AT ALBERNI, BRITISH C0LI::MBIA. ^.ii In this Mission, substantial progress has been n)ade during the year. Mr. McDonald isalready able to use to some advantage the " Aht " language, which is common to all tlu' tribes amongst whom lie laljours. He has visited several of these tribes : IJclulahts, Tociuahts, Howchuklesahts, etc., and very strongly urges the importance of at once undertaking work amongst them. The Indians themselves plead for a teacher, and will they be allowed to j dead in vain for the Hread of Life I Miss INIcDonald rendered excellent service in the school, which prospered '.er hand.s, until failing health compelled her to withdraw from the field. She was suf.ceded by Miss Maggie Minnes, who is succesafully carrying oi. the work, as her report shows. After the much lamented death of Miss Elizabeth Lister, v/ho, during the short time she was permitted to serve, made such adeep im])re8sion upon thechildren in the Hoarding Schi lul , Miss McGregor kindly took up the work until a permanent appointment should be made, and has rendered very acceptable service. Miss B. I. Johnston has now been appoiuti'd, n lady whose qualifications encourage us to hope for satisfactory work and blessed results. HEV. J. A. MCDONALD S REVORT. 1.

Thu nuinl)ers atteiuling Horvicoa v.arc an outline of the whole Hible history, giving the " (Josiml " more detail, in the "Aht" language. This was given in small sections, accompainod hy a reading from tho Scriptures illustrating the subject, and interpreted i)y some of our yoiuig men to whom I had fully ex|ilained the passage. The gospel stiiry was further illustrated by "the Itible lesson ))icturus " ui\ the Sabbath ■tchool les.sons. This year I have bi'gun an outline of " Actsof the Apostles" and hope to 1)1' iildu to continue as during last year. My first aildress has l)een re- writ ten a number of times, and is not yet satisfactory, but was undeistood and appreciated by the " Uclulalits," li> whom it was lately delivt^'od. 1 believe the Holy S|iirit has used .liese " feeble otl'orts for the glory of («od and the aalvation of His people." Some of our youni; people had privately confessed their faith in Christ, so when I was tiniahing the gospel story one Sab- hath I recpiested all who Itelieved on "Jesus" as the Sou of God and their Saviour, to stand up. Some of the larger boys and girls aroue, followed by some of the older people, showing that they were not ashamed of the gospel. I have not taken any Btei)s toward li.iptism, until I see that there is a change in their lives, and they have n clearer idea of the Christian life. Again would I mention t)ie visit of Mr. Cushing, a Naiutimo Indian, who is a local preacher for the Methodist Church. Altlumgh he does not understand the language of the " .\hts,' he is an earnest [ireacher in " Chinook," and has a great influence for good on his people. In September, ho remained t)Vor a week and supplied during my ab.senco at Presbytery meeting. (a). We are told to "teit'/i " in the name of Jesus. For this purpose the two Sabbath schools liave been continued dm-ing the year. "The National Scripture text book of .Scotland " was used, as the "International series" was loo advanced for beginners who knew very little English. Fifty-two leading gospel texts were thus memorized and ex- plained. At an examination on them before Christmas one boy " Harry " repeated all askeil for without mistake. Several girls also donig well, KiSther making one and Eva two mistakes. This work of teaching is carried on in day school, as well as on the Sabbath. All tlio mission statl' share in this work and the schools are superintended by Mr. A. .McKee in my absence. During the brief period of her " labour of love " with us, our late matron. Miss E. Lister, also conducted a Bible class for the young people. It was held in the afternoon during the time of the Opitchesaht S. S., and serviae in the church. Her devotion to her Master and zeal for the salvation of souls, made a lasting impression upon the young peoph;. (b). The Day School mentioned in last report as being begun by my sister, was con- d\icted by Jier under difficulties but with great success. The attendance increased to 20, an average of I'ii for tlie second cpiarter of 1892. A room in tlie Mission House was xcn. Appendix No. 11. J A used until the first of May, after which an old log house fitted up by Mr. McKee was converted into a school house. Owing to the failure of my sister's health, I took cli.ir<,'(- of the school for her in hopes that she would soon recover. (The average for third fjuiu'toi- was IT'j). At the begiuTiing of the rainy season in October, as she still continued poorly, on the arrival of Miss Minnes as teacher, and Miss E. Lister as matron, she left for Cali- fornia. She was the means used by our Lord to begin this good work, and I hope she may bo spared to see it prosper in other hands. As Miss Minnes' report covers the re- maining six months, I am thankful to say that the first year has been completed, show- ing great progress in the jiublic school subjects as well as in religious instructions. With- out tlie "Girls' dome " the .school could not have been continued durin'^ '.ho last tliroo months. Since the New Year, the house jf (jur nearest neighbour, "Santo," has btiii used for school purposes. We expect soon to have a new schoolhouse erected. Last fal the Indians agreed to build a schooUiouae for themselves, towards which they subscrihod §50 for material and the work of the building. The failure to secure a suitable situ iiul material before the rain set in, caused them to postpone operations until the spring. (i). The "Girls' Home" or Boarding school may be classed under the heatl of industriaj mission work. As teaching both by precept and cxaniplH is essential to its success, I shall refer to it under *hia head. By your appointment. Miss E. Lister, our late beloved matron, reached Alberni on the loth October, after being two weeks on the way. She lost no time in beginning the work, with ten large girls selected for the " Home." She formed them into a Sewing chvss on Saturdays, as well as into a Bible diss on Sabbath afternoons. Onarrivalofsupplieaof furniture, provisions, etc. .she opened the ■'Homo' on the 5th of December, by which time she knew her girls well and had won their con- fidence. She was perfectly happy, and wholly consecrated to her work. Suddenly the call was given her for higlier service, and she went to a brighter homo o?i the 3rd of Jan. nary. During her illness the girls left the "Home," only six of them returned; another girl and two boys were also taken in, when it was re-opened on lanuarv 7tli, ))y Miss ^L Minnes. (See other reports on this headingl. {(I). Medical and charitable work is also wortliy of notice. Having received a good nupply of drugs from the Indian Departmeftt,Victoria, by a careful use of them I've bi'Lii able not only to relieve much suffering, but also win confidence and give nijmpfitli y to many a troubled soul. Ohiahts, Uclulahts, To()uahts and Howchuklesahts from Barclaj' Sound comt for medicine, as well as our own Indians. At one time I had fifteen in waiting, and have a total of 420 recorded calls during the year. On till arrival of three boxes of clothing from the W. F. M. Society of St. Andrew's. New Westminster, last November, some 50 old people and children received gifts of clothing, while unno young men received articles of clothing for work done for the "Home." These proved a great blessing, as the winter was tlie coldest for many years. Another box from the Y. P. C, E. Society of St. Andrew's, Victoria, [irovided cloth and yarn for the Girls' H mie. The Willing Workers' of St. .Andrew's, Victoria, sent .'iS pillow covers for the Home, and .*'45.75 to keep two l)oy8, Harry and Peter, at school during tl o winter. Industii.d work has been carried on to a limited extent in gardening and building,'. Since Mr. McKeo has been engaged to take charge of tiiis mission, progress may be ex- pected along thiti lino this year. We hope to teach by example as well as preceiit. One man " Now-wayik " and his family not only cultivated about one acre as a garden, but also cleared another piece of land on wliich to raise oats. They made hay to supply their four horses. A'great number of fruit trees have been planted, three nev, Appendix No. 11. xciu. frame houses have been erected, and other iinprovoinonts in fencing, and road mivking in the Seshaht villa>;e. As much time is spent by the men in hunting, fishing .vnd sealing for a living, they are not over half of their time here. Twenty-tive were iiway on sealing schooners to the North Pacific last year, and some have gone this year. Oh.'itadeH — Mention should be made of some of the obstacles to thn progress of the work. («) The liquor traffic is as usual one of the greatest. By opposing the granting o a license for anhoteliii Alberni, the legalized traffic was kept out during last year, but by an appeal to a higher court in Nanaimo, after a third refusal by the local licensing court Government authority was given to carry on tliis death-dealing, soul-cursing work. " Fire Water "' is now being iven by loic u-ltiten to the Indians, not only of Alberni but also on Barclay Scmnd, as this is the only licensed house on the West C .ast of Van- couver Island. Ten of the chief men of the Seshahts at a meeting called for the purpose, opposed the whiskey house, while the names of several of the church members of Alberni appeared on the petition for a license. The young men are generally in favour of the liiiuor, and some of them were displeased at me for interfering in the matter. Some of the friends of the traffic have also spread false reports about our work, but the Indians know we are their true friends. i/<). The depravity of the white man is also shown by unlawful associations with " Ivlutchma " or Indian women. Four of them openly keep Indian wives without law- ful authority, while the deeds d(me in secret forbid mention. ((•). Gambling and potlatching are also hindrances, but until other amusements are provided it will l)e difficult to check them. ((/)■ ' Mashing " or putting away of husband or wife for tritiing causes, " running " of young men and women before marriage, and two cases of bigamy, interfere with proper marriage relations. I have yet to see the first Christian marriage, although it has been proposed by some of them. MISS mcorkuok's report. About three weeks after Miss Lister's death, I was reijuested by Rev. P. McF_ McLeod, of Victoria, to come to Alberni, and take temporary charge of the Training Home for Indian Children, which is under the sui)erintendence of Rev. J. A. McDonald. Three UKJuths have passed away, and a very busy time it has been with me, but I may s,ay also a very happy sea-son, as I have become much interested in my work, more especially since becoming bettor acijuainted with the dispositions and peculiarities of the oliildren placed in my care in the Home. Qn account of tlie absence of the Indians during the winter, it is very necessary to provide a home for their children, who are left behind in order tj secure their regular attendance at day and Sabbath schools. The Indians go seal-hunting and fishing down to Barclay Sound, but are willing to leave their children in our caro, when .satisfied they will be well looked after. The Industrial Home at present accommodates ten children and eight ject3, Sew Year, ras uncoiii- irjjo of tin.' f manaj^ed, vaa a great )13YTEJ:y which Ml', tveal it was iimHtanceB. ie;.;ard with ir notice by care, and. if student in ission funds to continue uller useful- nd attended He was Jne must la' e attendance at Collej^c, The Presbytery's Comnuttee tried to indnce him to comply with the resolution of the Assembly, but he could not see his way clear to neglect his work among the .lews. Due notice of this decision was given to the Foreign Mission Committee of the Church and no claim was made upon fts funds for the support of the work after the end of November last. The Deacon.s' Court of Crescent St. Church, Montreal, with the help of one or two friends, very generously assumed the financial responsibility of the Mission from that date until the meeting of the Assembly in June next. METHODS OF WOKK. The .Jewish population of Montreal is estimated by Mr. Newmark to be between live and six thousand persons. His reports show that he has visited 478 different .Jewish families during the year. A'lout one-third of these received him favourably. He also visited 13(5 young men, not connected with families. This liouse-io-house vi.sitation is a most valuable part of the work and occupies a large portion of Mr. Newmark's time. The people have to be seen very often in order to gain an influe ice for good over them. Evangelistic Meetings, in a small hall, are held on Saturday and Sunday afternoons ; at which Gospel truth is expounded in different languages, according to the nationality of those present. The attendance has been from 20 to 2G men. About (j.50 ditTerent persons are reported as attending during the year. F^esides these services three or four evening meetings were held every week for instruction in the English language. These classes were well attended and at the close of each a short Gospel address wan given. UESUt.T.S. It is impossible to give an estimate of the results of this work which is still in its infancy and is carried on in the face of such determined opposition and even persecution. It is certainly no small gain to have a converted Jew, of such devotion and high attain- ments, secure access to over 400 .Fewish families and deliver the message of redeeming love to over 600 men who have been taught to hate the very name of .Fesus of Nawireth. Who can tell what the fruits of this one year's work may be ? Mr. Newmark rep rts that 28 young men have been brought to believe in Jesus as their Saviour through his work in Montreal. Ton of these have been baptized, — four in Montreal and six in other cities to which they have gone. Several others are regarded as earnest emiuirers and would doubtless confess their faith openly were it not for the hardships such a course would entail. Four of the converts are now engfiged in Mission work, — two in London, England, one in New York and one in Russia. The one who returned to Russia is reported as doi% an excellent work in a city where there is a large Jewish population He is said to have been instrument«l in bringing 88 families out of the Jewish Church in six months. THK FuruuE. Mr. Newmark has demonstrated the possibility of reaching the Jewish populr ion of Montreal with the Gospel of .Fesus Christ. Ho is tirnily convinced that the work thus begun should be continued and carried on with more' vigour. Suitable ([uarterB are necessary in which to carry on all tlie departnumta of the work. It would be of great help to the work if shelter could be provided for tln.so wiio are thrown out of employment and driven from home because of their faith in the Gospel, until employment and other homes can be sjcured for them. It is also necessary to give assistance to some who are in poverty or lose their situations through the opposition of XCVl. Appendix No, 11. the enemy. Were it possible to secure a good-sized house in the Jewish quarter of tlio city as a centre for the work, these necessities would be largely met. He also needs several Christian young people to help him at the evening classes. RECOMMENDATIONS. At its last general meeting the Presbytery of Montreal unanimously adopted the following recommendations : — 1. Tliat the work be continued in Montreal and that the Foreign Mission Committee be re(|Uosted to grant $1,500 during the next year for tliat purpose. 2. That Mr. Newmark be given a few weeks' leave of absence for the purpose of attending the next meeting of the Foreign Missicjn Committee and General Assembly, and also to emjuire into the state of the Jewish population in some of the cities of Ontarin. 3. That Mr. Newmark be examined by a Committee of the Foreign Mission Committee, with the view of ascertaining what additional study may be necessary on iiis part in order to his ordination, and to reconnnend accordingly. Mr. Newmark wishes it to be understood that ', juld it be decided not to continue the work. in Montreal, he is prepared to serve the Church in any other Held they may appoint among his co-religionists. Montreal, April 25, 1893 In behalf of the Presbytery's Committee, F. M. DEWKY, Conveuer. The Foreign Misssion Committee, after careful ccmsideration of Mr. Dewey's Report, and after conversation with Mr. Newmark as to the course he would like to pursue intlu' future, decided to grant $1 ,500.00 for the work in Montreal during the next year, and also to reconnnend to the General Assembly that the future direction of Mr. Newmark 's studies be left in the hands of the Montreal Presbytery, with instructions to report at the next meeting of the Assembly. VIII. MISSION TO THE JEWS IN PALESTINE. In the Report submitted to the last General Assembly, it is stated that " the O^i- mittee, deeming it wise in establishing a new Mission to send out a colleague with Dr. Webster, have under consideration the appointment of another Missionary to accompany him to his field ot labour." After making oncjuiries as to the condition of the Jews in Palestine, it was decided tn defer the appointment of a second Missionary, and to direct Dr. Webster to proceed to Palestine to examine the requirements of the whole field, to confer with other Mission- aries, especially the Missionaries of the Free Church at Tiberias, and to report to the Com- mittee in order to enable them to select a field. Dr. Webster left Toronto in the month of September, 1892, and after various incon- veniences arising from quarantine regulationK and Turkish officials, arrived at Beyrout in the month of December. In January he started out on his tour of inspection through Appendix No. 11. XCVll. r of tho o needs )ted thi' mniittec irpoBC I if sscnibly. Ontaiit 1. Mission ry (in liis continuf they mny vencr.

The Committee, after careful consideration of this report, adopted the following resolution ; — "Having heard Dr. Webster s report and letters, order them to be filed for reference, thank Dr. Webster for his full and frank statements as to the difficulties and opportunities for work in Palestine, and request him to visit northern Syria, especially Aleppo, and also to visit Egypt, especially Alexandria and Cairo, and report as fully with regard to the great centres of Jewish population in these countries, as he has with regard to Palestine. The Secretary was requested to ask from Dr. Webster careful estimates as to tho probable initial and annual cost of a Mission m any place where he might consider it desirable to settle, and also to call his attention to India and China, nd to ask him whether he would be willing to go to one of those Missions in the event of his not finding himself called to any particular field of labour among the Jews." DR. WBBSTER'.S report. My last letter to you was written just before I started out on my tour of inspection through Palestine to look about for a suitable location for a Jewish Mission. I returned from my trip about a fortnight ago, being away twenty-three days, and now present my report, telling the Committee where I have been, what I have seen of Jewish work in Palestine, and stati.'t; such facts as I think will be of service in deciding the very important (luestion oj our location. I visited all the Jewish towns and cities, had conferences with the missionaries in the different places about the work now being carried on and the most suitable opening for planting a new Mission. I need not enter into details about the tour itself, which was a very interesting and very profitable one, but I was very thankful to be back safe again in Beyrout — thankful to God that I was kept free from sickness or accident, or harm of any kind. That means a great deal for a traveller in Palestine during this season of tho year. I had no idea of the difficulty and dangers of winter travel in the east until I was fairly in the midst of them. Pouring rains, swollen rivers and boggy, miry plains, in all of which there is too much danger to horse and rider to make travel enjoyable. Haifa was tho first place visited. Beautifully situated at the foot of Mt. Carmel, on the south side of the Bay of Acre, and reached by steamers fortnightly from Jatla and Beyrout, it is considered tho most progressive town in Palestine, and is now attracting special attention as it is being connected by a railway, now under construction, with the interior of Galileo and Damascus. It promises to be one of the most important seaport towns on tiie easccrn Mediterranean. It has a population of 6,000, of whom 1,500 are .lews. Missionarii operationti : — 1. The Church Missionary Society (Episcopal and commonly known a.s the "C. M. S.") has had a station here for over 20 years ; has a native pastor, native male and female teaciiers, and a lady (English) superintendent. The Society's work is principally concerned with the Moslems and Christians, but they have a slight interest in Jewish work, as I noticed in nearly all of their schools some Jewish children. 2. Two and a-half years ago the Bishop of Jerusalem planted a Tcici.'t// Minftion in Haifa. Rev. Mr. Shapira is tlio .Tewish mission.-iry. Schools have been opened up 20 XCVlll. AppExmx No, 11. :|.| . ,1 for Jewish children. A medical missionary has been ens;a>usand inliikbitants of Nazareth there is not a single Jew. So no further mention need be made of it in this report. Tiherid.s was next visited. It is one of the Hoiy Cities of the Jews ; has a pojmla- tion of 5,000, of whom 4,000 are Jews. The Free Church of Sci'tland Jewish ^lissicn has had a station here for nine years. It is the only Protestant society at work in Tibt>rias; is Well organized, aggressive, and with its excellent statl' of workc rs is well covering tlie field. The Misiiion Staff is composed of : Ordained Missionary — Rev. \V. Ewing. Medical Missionary — Dr. D. Torrance. A Hebrew Scripture Reader. Three native teachers. Trained nurse for hospital — Miss Stewart. Native Dispenser. This is one of the most successful Missions in Pdlistine, and much nf the succe^.s is undoubtedly due to the work of the Medical Missionary. Tno years atjo Dr. Torrance •ipened up a small !:ospit,sI in a house rented for that jiurpnse. The new Iiosjiital is iiiw being built on the bent site in the town, which, when ti'iislied and occupied, will very mucli strengthen tlie position of the Mission in that district. Thrre times a week clil!i^•^ are lield at the Dispensary, which are always prect (led by a (insnel service in Arabic, conducted by the ■Missionaries. I was welcomed by Mr. Kwing and Dr. Torrance with the utmost cordiality, and every kindness and assistance wliicli was in their power t" render was r' ■ vfully given. I spent three days in TiVierias. having several long confer- ences with the Missionaries about our own prospective work, and received a great deal ' Appendix No. 11. xcix. On the following,' Moinliiy morning we went up 'o Safcil, the "city that is set on an hill and cannot be hid," so tnidition makes it. It lies about 15 miles north of Tiberias. Snfed is one of the Holy Cities of the .[ewa, and has the reputation of beiii^ the dirtiest in Talestine. Has a population of about 15,000, of w'..om 0,000 are Jews, mostly Askenazim, and all receivint; the " Halluka." The " HaUnka " is the mouthly "bounty" or " allowance " distributed amony the Jews of Palestine in certain districts, an-l providod by wealthy .lewish societies on the cr>ntinent. There are two societies at work amoni^ the Jews in SafeJ : J. The B'ree Church of Scotland has a branch station here, with rhe following wiirkiny staff: — .Mr. \V. Christie, unordaiued, who has char;,'e nf the educational and religious work. Dr. Khaleel Saadeh is the Medical Slissionary. Two native tiachtMS. Miss Fenton, lady principal of the schools. Dr. Khaleel hulds free clinics three times a week at the Mission Dispensary, the other two days being reserved for special cases— operations and house-to-house visitation. The usual Missionary services are laid on Sunday. 2. The Tjondon Jews' Socitty have a station here with the following workers : — Rev. Friedman, ordained. Assistants — Miss Friedman, Miss James and Miss Farthing, a native female teacher, and dispenser. This Society has at the present time no Medical .Missionary in Safed ; has had several with frecjuent dismissals and retirements. Their last medical agent, an old dispenser from .Jerusalem, and not a (pialilied physician, left the field at the end of last year. In connection with Safed, I might also mention the independent medical work of Rev. Dr. Franklin. He was formerly in the employ of the London Jews' Societj', but was dismissed some years ago. He ha.s rather an interesting history — a Jew born, converted to Christianity, et carrying on any regvdar Mission work, that is, he has no schools or services for the Jews, but he has a dispensary where four days in the week he gives free clinics to the poor Jews, who come to him in considerat le numbers for treatment. In Safed the Ji ws have opened up nmnerous schools for their own children, to keep them from attending the schools of the Missions. There is also a .special .lewish doctor, supported by (>utside Jewish societies, to give mc^'cal attendance and medicines free of chartie to the Jews of Safed and adjacent colonies. There are a number of small villages in northern (lalileo, in the neighborhood of Safed, but there are no Jews living in any of them, except in the village of El Bukiel, where there are about 20 permanent resident families. To the ni rth-east of Safed, in the valley of the ILdcli, are three Jcwisli colonies liberally supported by Baron Eothschild : ii'(is/;/(/(i((/i.— 40 families ; 1 hour's ride from Safed ; has school (Jewish). ZihtiiK — 10 families ; I? hour's ride fr'^m Safed ; has school (Jewish). c. Appendix No. 11. 1?^':^ Croadtuf of Jordan. — 10 faiuilios ; hours' ride from Sufed ; has school (Jewish). These are all supplied with free medical attendance by the Jewish doctor in Safed. The residents of tliose colonies are supposed to cultivate the land, but art' rcivlly pauperized bepgars. The land and necessary farming implements thoy receive f. je, -tnd *' Halluka " as well, and so are living in comparative comfort. These colonies can only be reached by the Missionary indirectly. Thoy are private ground, and a Missionary locating among them would be treated as an intruder and common trespasser. The Jew ish doctor in Safed is not very much respected, so that Dr. Khaloid is froijuently cUlcd to the colonies for medical consultation. Mr. Christie usually accompanies him on such visits. They report the people in the colonies are freer in opinion, and much readier tu discuss religious (juestions than the Jews of Safed, who have always been very faiiaMcai, and even violent in their opposition to the Gospel. Joiisalem was the next place visited. This is the great Jewish centre, the Holiest of (ill their Holy Cities, and so we find the Jews here in large numbers. It is imiiossible to get at the exact Jewish population of Jerusalem. There has bei'n a great deal of controversy about that point recently. There is the high estimate and the low estimate — one Fays 40,000 ; the other 25,000. Very probably both are wrong, and a medium number of 30,000 much nearer the mark. The Rabbis state that there are only 24,000. Their estimates of the Jewish population in the various places are usually a little under the mark. The Jews of Jerusalem are divided into three classes : — 1. Askena/.im (Russian, Polish and German), about 20,000. 2. Sepliardim (Judeo-Sparish), about 10,000. 3. Arabian (Arabic speaking), not numerous. The following is the state of things in connection with the Jewish work in Jerusalem : — 1. London Tews' Society has its headquarters here ; c(tmnienced work in 1H24. (Anglican. ) Present stiitf in Jerusalem :— Three ordained ministers. Two of these are converted natives (Hebrews). The third, Rev. Mr. Kelk, does not engage very much in the regular Mission work, as he has the superintendency of all the Mission Stations in Palestine in connection with the London Jews' Society, anil has charge of t'e Mission Chapel services. Two lady assistants, working specially among the women. Hospital Dispensary Stati':- Dr. Wheelt r and Dr. Masterinan (En.jHsh) ; four nurses (English) ; two native dispenser'--. Boys' School (boarding and day). — Four teachers; English principal. Girls' School (boarding and day). — Six teachers; English lady principal. Training School fcr Jewesses. — Lady teacher. House of Industry with staff of instructors. Ei-tpiirers Home. — Scripture reader in charge. The Society has a hospital and dispensary inside the city. A new hospital is to \ e built this summer outside the city on the Jaft'a road, in the new and growing part of the town, and among the .lewish colonies. They will retain, however, their present premise.s and keep up the dispensary work, which has become "ory extensive. Thi e ti.nes a week the 'octors hold free clinics in the dispensary. A no linal sum is charge, in some cases for the prescriptioi ticket, but the medicine, with the exception of (juinine, the patieiit.s receive "gratis." Last year the number of patients treated in their clinics alone amounted to over 19,000. Besides this the doctors do a great dual of house sick- Appendix No. 11. ci. rish). in Safod. ro reiilly f. ;e, •\ncl cnn otily [issionary 10 .lev ish ■ ClUo'l to (in such rcalior tn fftUfiiical, he Hi>liuKt imjiossiltle (lit ileal "i oatiiuatu— a medium nly 24,000. little undtr sh \vi>rk ill ■k in 1824.

This extra service is usually given " gratis." Their work extends to all classe.s of Jews — Sophard, A^konaz and Arabian. 2. Christian Alliance of New York (R-Jv. A. B. Simpson et alii) has two lady Missionaries stationed in Jerusalem. Those two energetic and fearless Christian women, with their mothers' meetings and meetings for Jewesses and house-to-house visitation, are, in a qiiet way, and without interfering with any other society's work, carrying on a noble work among the Hebrew women of the city and surrounding colonies. Their work is distinctly Jewish. 3. Rev. Ben-Oliel. 4. The " C. M. S." have also an interest in Jewish work in Jerusalem ; but their princi^'al work is among the Moslems and Christians. Besides the hospital and dispensary work of the London Jews' Society referred to above, there are several other similar medical missionary institutions in Jerusalem. Such as : (1) Tlie German hospital in connection with the "Berlin Jerusalem Union." Open to Jews and Moslems. Free dispensary attendance. Free medicine. Over 10,000 patients received treatment at their dispensary last year. (2) Dr. Sandreczkis, private children's hospital (Missionary), opon to Jews and Moslems. (3) Three Jewish hospitals supported by Jewish societ'es and iudividuaL on the continent. Om for the Spanish Jews, inside the city ; an ither for the German-Russian Jews, also inside the city; the third, the "Baron Rothschild Hosjiital," outside the city, built and supported by the man whose name it bears. Those are free hospitals, and each of them h is a dispensary connected with it. These are well supported institutions, with well (jualified physicians in charge. Three days in the week each of them holds free clinics in the dispensary where medicines, etc., are given "gratis." Nor is this all they are doing for their own people. A Jewish Society in Frankfort supports a Jewish doctor and dispensary. This doctor, besides attending to the dispensary duties, is 8uppo.sed to visit and supply medicines " gratia " to the sick in their own homos, who, by reason of infirmity or serious illness, are not able to attend any of the different hospitals. This is among the Jews outside of the city. I was told there was a d )Ct of the town, one of them especially for Jewesses. This school for Jewesses had to 1 it- closed this year for want of suitable teachers, but all of these schools are open to Jewish girls, and there are ([uite a few in attendance. 2. The " C. M.S.," with a strong start' of workers. Very few Jews in their schooli. 3. The London Jews' Society has had a station here for ten years. The Society has a Bible depot and mi.ssion house. In the latter the missionary agent lives. The Society > agent is unordained, simply a catechist (German), and is doing very little missionary work. He keeps the book depot, and his wife has a small night school, at which some eight or ten Hebrew adults attend. The Society has no ordained missionary in Jatta ; no schools : no medical mission work. No organized effort has ever been made to reach the Jews of Jafl'a. Appendix No. 11. cm. nitivl is iww 4. MoUicivl work :— (1) The English Modiciil Missioniviy Hospital.— Angliciin ; not under the nimiiicos of any society, but supiiorted by priviito subscriptions and donations. Tiiu hospital is a now ono — large, well situated ; the best I have seen in the land. Out-door patients are treated free three times in the week, many of the i)atient8 \mn<> Jews. (Jospei services are held in the chapel adjoining the dispensary every niornnij; for the patients before any treatment is given. The work of tlie iiospital is general, and all wiio apply — Moslems, Jews, Arabs and Christians — may enjoy the benefits of this excellent institution. (2) There is a small Jewish hospital, supported by outside Jewish societies, with a Jewish doctor hi charge. (•i) Mr. Scott Monureitt"s work. — This work is absolutely non-Christian. Mr. Scf)tt Moncreiff spent a year in Jati'a, and carries on his work now through Jewish agents. He is said to be a Christian man, but in carrying on his work he forbids the use of IHble or NewTe8tamont,di8tril)Ution of tracts, and even the mentionof name of Christ to the Jews. He distinctly disclaims all connection with any of the missionary .societies. His work is purely humanitarian, to relieve the physical sufferings of tlie poor Jews in Jaffa and surrounding districts. He distributes money, articles of clothing, food, etc., among the needy Jews, and hiis (jpened up a house of refuge. A soup kitchen is open daily, at which I was told by tiie agent in charge (iO families (Jewish) received daily food. He has employed one of the doctors of Jaffa (a German and Jew, I think, abo) to attend thi- poor Jews of the town free, or at a reduced rate, receiving for his work a very liberal salary. And so the work of pauperizing them goes on, until a most discouraging and humiliating state of things has been produced, and the Jewish missionary is now almost forced to take Gospel in one hand and money bag in the other. Several Jewish schools ha\e been recently opened up in Jaffa, supported from Jewish society funds. In addition to these there are a number of private schools. I did not make a special visit to Ramlah, nz the Jewish population is small, number- ing only about 200. In the Plain of Sharon, around Jaffa, and at various distances, are a number of Jewish colonies. The colonies are mostly Polish and Russian refugees. These colonies are under the management, and are supported by, Jewish societies and wealthy individual Jews on the continent. Baron Rothschild supports several of them. I append statistics of their numbers, etc. : — Most of these colonies lie along the course of the railway. Reschon la Zion, 1 hour from .Jaffa, population 2GG ; Mikweh Israel, one-third hour f..i..n Jaffa, population 100 ; Pesa Tikweh, 2 hours from Jaffa, population 450 ; Rehowet, H liours from Jaffa, population 200 ; Akron, 3 hours from Jaffa, population f?00 ; Zimmarin, 12 hours from Jaffa and G hours from Haifa, population GQO. This is a large and flourishing colony, under the patronage of Baron Rothschild ; has a resident doctor, and Jewisli soliools have been opened. The other colonies are also supplied with free mediavl attendance by a Jewish doctor residing in Reschon la Zion. As was said of the colonics nearSafed, these also can only l)e reached indirectly. S(jme of them have schools for their children ; others have not. They receive the " Halluka." In the Jordan Valley are two small Jewish colonies, with a {)opulation of about 400. None of these colonies were visited. In Nahlous there are about 300 Jews, but there is a medical missionary there in con- nection with the "C. M. S." CIV.

After looking over again tho extensive mo8ed. I do think that something more ou^ht to be done in the line of a direct Christian missionary work for the Jews of Jatta. Mr. Scott Moncreiff 's work is good enough as far as it goes, but it comes so far short of the standard or ideal of Christian work as not to be coasidered or respected as a missionary work at all. Whether our Church could not fill up the gap in the work at Jaffa and supply the wants of this important field is a question to consider. The London Jews' Society might ihink we were intruding, but excepting Hebron, it is impossible to locate in any place in Palestine where they have iiot already a station. Such, then, is the state of the field, and the question is where shall we begin our work. If the C(jmmittee would like to know my mind I have to state fankly that I am entirely undecided in the matter. Each place has its difficulties and opportunities and all appear about the same. As yet we have not been able to feel that we have been called to any of them. The matter lies heavy on our hearts. It faces us day and night. How we long for the unmistakable signs of Pnjvidence and God's Spirit pointing out plainly the place to u;. At present, as far as we know our minds, they are not biassed in favour of any phice. We leave the question entirely in the C(jnimittee's hands ind feel assured that the light will come by-and-bye and the way made plain. I must apologize for the leagth of this report, but 1 wanted it to be as thorough and complete as possible, atid coaseipiently luid to go into details. CVIU. Appendix No. 11. MISCELLANEOUS. K il WOMAN'S FOREIGN MISSION SOCIETIES. 1. The energy and devotion with which the work of this Society in both sections of the Church has been conducted, and the success that has attended their eftbrts, can be best shown by publishing a few extracts from the seventeenth annual report of the Western Division. " In reviewing the work of this seventeenth year of our Woman's Society through which our Lord has so graciously led us, we can report a very faithful attendance of the members of the Board at the thirty-eight regular meetings held, the average of the whole Board being twenty-nine and cf the managers twenty-five. In addition to this, sixteen Executive meetings have been nacessary at which an average of thirteen have been present, thus showing a deep interest in the work, and an earnest effort to 'ulfil the r.;- sponsibility asHumed." " In accordance with the resolution of the Society the special meeting for prayer wii held early in February, under the auspices of the Board, from which we feel an influ- ence will go out, and interest in mission work will be quickened in many hearts." "We feel that the hand of the Lord has been good upon us, and we humbly rejoice in the growth of our Society, knowing that it is all due to the abundant blessing of ivjr Heavenly Father." In these three extracts we have the three elements of success in all Chrintian work- diligence, prayer, and thanksgiving. Any society that is conducted on these princijiles must succeed. The W. F. M. S. has succeeded in a remarkable degree, but there is much yet to conquer before the land is held in peaceful possession. May the years to come be yet more signally blessed. In the midst of rejoicingij there is however a note of sadness. " Our Medical Missiim work in Central India was inaugurated by Dr. Elizabeth R. Beatty, who arrived in India in December, 1884. For the space of two years Dr. Beatty laboured singlehanded in her department and for seven years she continued at her post though sutfering during the after part of har sojourn in the ii^ld from continued attacks of malarial fever. " In 1891 Dr. Beatty returned home on furlough in the hope that her health would speedily be restored by the change to her native air. This has not been the case, and aft > i patient waiting, many anxious fears and prayerful expectations, the Foreign Mission Committee, at her own repeated and urgent request, felt compelled with very doej) regro to accept in the meantime Dr. Beatty's resignation. This is a severe trial not only to the Society, but to the missionaries, as Dr. Beatty was recognized by alias an invaluable worker, but we do not abandon the hope that in the future the way may be opened foi her to return to the work for which she was so amply qualified and which she so much enjoyed and loved." ; May the Lord grant an answer to "the hope" expressed in this well merited tribute of appreciation.

The total amount raised this year is considerably above that of last year, but that is owiut; to the Rreater amounts contributed to the Fund by the W. P. M. S. It is noticed that eon- gregatioufl take advantage of the incrrased amounts raised by theWomeu's Society to correppondin;^' ly decrease the oontribations from the congregational funds.

The meating of the Alliance of the Reformed Churches, heid in Toronto iu September, 1 892, haB been of interest to the work of Foreign Missions, on aoooiiut of the valuable papers read before the Council and also on account of the following resolutions bearing on the adminstration nf mixsions, drawn up at Conferences held during the meetings of the Council by oouvener?, secretaries, members of Foreign Mission Boards, and committees, and missionaries of Churches r(>pre8entcd in thr Alliance. The following resolutions were adopted at the Conference and are here introduced for information, although they have not been formally endorsed liy the Committee. 1. Whereas, the disproportion between the rates of salaries and allowances of native Agents in various missions working in the same or neighbouring di^^tricts, frequently tempts native workers to desert from the service of our mission to enter anutbor, and ic a source Oi discontent among native agents, Resolved, That we recommend the missionaries of different Preebyterian or Reformed Missions working in contiguous districts, to arrange as far as possible for a uniform rate of salaries and allowances, maximum and minimum, to native pastors and catechists ; and inas- muah as the aim of every mission ought to be to train up a self-supporting native church, care ought to be taken to dx the salaries and allowances of native pastors ut such rates as not to pre- clude the possibility of applying the principle of self-support in tha case of native pastors in the immediate or near future. Wo also recommend that with regard to native churches, self-govern- ment and self-support ought to go together, and that in all cases where the native ministry is not self-supporting the native pastorate ought to be under the cortrolof the local representatives of the mission which furnishes the t^alary or proportion of the salary. 2. Whbrbas, some Mission Boards spend large sums upon institutions for the Higher Educa- tion of natives, while others are content to confine their efforts mainly to evangelistic work, Resolved, That we recommend co-operation among Presbyterian and Reformed Missions in the conduct of institutions for the Higher Education, especially in the education of mission agents, and that when one mission takes advantage of the educational institutions of another mission for the training of their mission agents, these advantages t-hould be gratefully acknow- ledged, and some share taken of the financial burden of the missions which support these educa- tional institutions, 3. Wherkas, difficulties have arisen in the mission field from missions receiving into its communion converts or native members from a neighbouring mission who are under discipline, Reiolved. That we recommend the various Presbyterian missions to pay strict regard to the discipline exercised in m ighbouring missions, and in particular to refuse to receive into com- munion any native Christians who are under discipline in the missions to which they originally belong, unless with the consent of the disciplining mission. 4. Whereas, many evils have arisen from convp..'' in the mission fteldcoming from foreign parts to the hrme churches. Resolved. That we recommend to the various Prosbyterian and Reformed Mission Boards or Committees to discourage all which tends to denationalize their converts, and in particular to prevent, if possible, converts f^'om leaving their own country to visit Europe or the American Continent. 5. WnERBAs, numbers of natives from heathen lands, where thero are Presbvteriiio missions , are now coming to Europe and America, seeking help on the plea that they are Christians. Resolved. That as far as possible, Presbyterian and Reformed Churches and their ministry and members in the homu lands, refine to give assistance to any such persons, unless, they bring with them letters of recommendation from the missionaries who are laboring in the dis- tricts from which these persons come. Ci. Whereas, there seems to be a widespread desire in all Pretbyterian ChurohoB to increase the amount of direct evnngelistic work in heathen lauds. Resolved. That we recommend to the Mission Boards or Committees of the various Pres- byterian Churches, that while educational agencies at present employed should be maintained! effiaiently, elioits ought to be made to increase the more direct evangelistic work of the churches iu the heathen lands. T. W. Chambers, D.D,, Chairman. Thomas M. Likdsat, D.D., Secretari/. CXI.. Appendix No. 11. 4. There were held in the city of New Tork, on the 11th and 12th Jannary : (1) A oonterence of the exeoative offioera of all the Foreign Missionary Boards and Committees of the Presby. terian Chnrohes in the western section of the AUianoe. (2) A meeting of the Missionary Com- mittee of the Alliance of the Reformed Churches. (3) A conference of the Secretaries of Boards. (4) A broader conference to which representatives of the Missionary Boards and Societies, of other Protestant Chnrohes were invited. At these conferences, in which our committee was represented by Dr. MaoLaren and the Secretary, snbjectj were discussed of great practical im- portance, and a spirit of devotion and brotherhood manifested that was exceedingly delightful and helpful to all who were present. 6. There was also held in the month of December, at Bombay, the Decennial Missionary Conference, at which our own missionaries in Central India were present. Many papers of great value upon many phases of the work w .re read, and the missionaries were greatly refreshed by the fellowship enjoyed during these days. 6. It will be remembered that when Mr. Wilkie was at home on furlough, the General Assembly of 1889 gave him permission to visit the ehnrches in order to collect $10,000 for the erection cf a college building at Indore, with the expectation that the Oovernment of India would grant another 910,000, upon certain conditions that were not considered objectionable. Mr. Wilkie, after much efifort, succeeded in collecting th* amount proposed, but the Oovernment, on account of financial embarrassment!*, has disappointed his expectations, consequently the College is un- finished. The first story is completed, but in order to get the full use of the building, it will be necessary to complete the whole. In addition to that, each of the other stations is asking for new buildings — all of which are necessary in order to save the health of the misrionaries and enable them to do their work efficiently. The General Assembly is therefore asked to consider whether it is proper to depend on the Ordinary Fund for the erection of buildings, and whether there should not be a special Building Fund for that purpose. 7. Mr. Russell, as appears in his report, feels the burden of the duties of the Chaplain of the Church of Scotland in Mhow, which consist in a parade service every Sunday evening for soldiers and civilians, and a prayer meeting on Wednesday evening, for a part of the year, at Bible Class on Tuesday evening, preaching at an out-station onc> a month, besides a consider- able amount of visitation in hospitals and homes. Evidently so much work must seriously interfere with his other eng.'igemeuts, and yet it is important that these duties should be attended to, and if possible by ou. Church, as we occupy that field. The Assembly is asked to consider whether it would nc^ be well to send out a missionary whose special work it would be to attend to these duties, and as much other work as he might be able to <1.o. 8. It will be noticed that in this report there are maps of three of our Mission Fields, which will it is hoped be found helpful. The map of Formosa is from a sketch sent to the committee some years ago by Dr. Mackay, and has not therefore all the later stations marked upon it. 9. A good deal of uneasiness has been caused, as to the possible effects of the Geary Exclusion Act upsn our missionaries. The committee has entered into correspondence with American Boards as to the steps they thought it necessary to take in order to protect life and property, and find that they apprehend no immediate danger. 10. At a meeting of the Mission Council held at Mhow, March 7th to IGth, the following re solutions were unanimously adopted : " (1) That our Mission has been in operation for 16 years and only five stations have been opened in the whole field. (2) For the vrork of these stations we have six male missionaries and eleven female mission- aries, of whom one mule missionary is home on furlough, and one expects to take furlough in a year, and one lady missionary leaves on furlough immediately.

(i) Further, there are many lar^e ooutres in Central India coming directly in the midst of the work already ooened, notably Mandsaur, Dhar, Jawrah Dewas, Katobroad, Barnagar, all cities from about lO.OOO to nearly 30,000 inhabitants, to say i.othing of other importau centres which are almost entirely without the Gospel. Of these several present open doors and are im- mediately available for missionary effort, having been more or less worked as out-stations. (5) But especially must wo call attention to the very open door among the hill tribes the Bheels. The whole western and southern bjrlera of 'our field are occupied by these people. Work has been begun amongst them which promises to be very interesting and successful, but it cannot in any adequate measure be overtaken until men be set aside specially for this work. (6) Further, the railways already opened or under construction increase very materially the facilities for reaching outside work ; and at the same time the advantages of centralization are not destroyed." In view of those facts we foel the great responsibility of being supposed to oceupy this portion of Central India, when in reality we are'not in any proper measure doing so. The Church ought adequately to man the field. The alternative of other missions corniug in to do the work is one which we deem undesirable. We believe in the God whose work this is — we believe in the Church who has sent u.=! to labour in India, and we Lope that it will rise to the demand and send into the field labourers tc meet its very pressing needs. This appeal needs no word to give it emphasis. M<^nifostly the needs and opportuuities i.re such as ought to arouse the deepest interest on the part of the Church and result in sending miiiy more men and women in order to conquer the land for Christ. 11. Notwithstanding the great need for better accommodation, in order to prosecute the work amongst the Chinese in Victoria, the Committee decided that for the present Mr. Winchester should continue to rent a room in which to conduct Mission services, and to employ two such native assistants as may be available, to enable him to acquire the language and carry on the work. 12. It WAS agreed by the P. M. C. to allow Mr. McDjnuld to expend iJOOO in increasing the accommodation of the Girls' School at Alberni, and also to open a school amongst thj Uclulahts etc., on Barclay Sound, according to the repeated appeals of these tribes. misBionary as he migbt ?ieldB, which oomtcittee pon it. ,ry Exclusion th American roperty, and following re jns have been ale mission - forlougliin a 21 CSCIV, Appendix No. 11. ■i o !25 O o JC ' auonsadij j. ; ; ; : : : : • ; • '.

The Commiitee entrusted with the duty ..f considering the Foreign Missionary Report, and preparing a deliverance on the same for the Assembly, respectfully submit the following resolu- tions : — 1. That the General Assembly record their thanks to the Great Head of the Church for the sn.itaining prace granted, and the many tokens of favor bestowed upon our missionaries who have been diligently sowing the seed amid dangers and discouragements, and for the constantly increasing iuterebt mttnifested by the Home Church in the evangehzation of the world. 2. That the Assembly cordially welcome our missionaries who are at home on furlough, and express the hope that they may find much profit and enjoyment during their visit, and that after a season of rest tliey may be permitted to return to their several fields in the fulness of the bless - ing of the Gospel of Christ, and they especially express their sympathy with those misgionaries who have Buffered bereavement, and others who have had to abandon their work en aeconnt of (iokuess, and pray that in the good providence of God they may yet be permitted to take up the service they so much love, and that during the period of " waiting " they may experience very much of H's presence, whose grace is sufficient in every time of need. The Assembly would also express their sympathy with the members of the New Hebrides staff, who found it necessary to seek a change in Australia, and rejoice to learn that some of them have returned to their work improved in health, and tru^t that the others may soon be thoroughly restored. 3. That the Assembly note with much thankfulness the progress of the work in Trinidad, during the quarter of a century that has passed over that ^fission, and bless God for having epared Dr. Morton and Dr. Grant with kheir families for so long a period of faithful service, and particularly for permitting them, along with their colleagues, more recently appointed, to open a College for the training of converted Hindoos for the ministry, and for granting them so many ex XVI. APPr.NDlX No. 11, J ^^ young men who have shown themsolvea earnest students and zealous workers in tlie missioa field. The Assembly pray tliat this institution may be greatly owned of God, and that very eonn a native ni>uich, provided with a native ministry, may be organized on the island. The Assembly acknowledge ^^rritefully the aid to sohoolK given by the government of Trinidad, the proprietors of estates and their agents, and the native converts on tlm island. 4. That the Assembly grant the request of the Committee, to lay the question of the trans- ference of the New Hebrides Mission to the Australasian Churches before the ijynod of the ^^ari■ time Provinces, but require that the deliverance of said Synod on this subject be reported to ihe nest General Assembly, before any negotiations are entered upon with the Australasiau Churches. 5. That the Assembly express tlieir satisfaction at the continued prosperity and extension of the Church in Northern Formosa, and at the prospect of seeing again among us, our honored missionary. Dr. Q. L. Mackay, whom God has so signally blessed in that portion of Hi.i vine- yard. C. That the Assembly express their gratitude to Almighty God for the pioteeiiou granted to our missionnries in Honan, during the trying experiences of the past yoor, and thai Uutvritiisiaud- ing these dilliculties, they have been enabled to establish themselves wbolely in tionan ; fortlie restoration to health of our missionaries who have been under «> vore alllictiou; ftr the success that has attended the efforts of our medical missionaries in healing the sick, and thus winning the sympathies of that turbulent people, and for the first fruits of the coming harvest frauted to His faithful servants. And also that the Assembly express their approval cf the action of the F. .AI. C. in takiug steps to protect our missionaries from dangers that may arise on account of the (ieary Exclnsiuu Bill, and also in enquiring into the sanitary condition of the country so as to protect the uoaitL of the Missionaries, and of the proposal to so strengthen the staff as to enable them to t.ikf regular periods of rest without leaving the stations so weak-handed as to imperil the work. 7. That the (leneral A?sombIy record their gratitude to God for the many indications vi deepening spiritual interest in Central India, especially amongst the lower castes,, and woulit recognize the additional responsibility of being in readiness to greatly strengthen the staff shoulJ a mass movement take place, such as has been experienced among the Telugus and in other parts of India. 8. That the General Assembly instruct the F. M. C. to take steps to secure some suitable person who will take charge of the Chaplaincy service at Mhow, whilst rendering such otinr assistance to the mission as he may be able. 9. That the attention A the Church be specially drawn to the earnest and pathetic appeal oi the Mission Council in India. Truly the fields are while unto the harvest ; millions of precious soul.-, are perishing under the eyes of our miflsionaries, and they are not able to help them. Tliu ministers of the Church ate recommended to read this appeal to their congregations, and to impresa them with the responsibihty resting upon the Church in view of such an appeal. 10. That the (ieneral Assembly instruct the llev. A. B. Winchester to take all suitable oppur- tuuities of enlisting the special co-operation of the Synod of British Columbia, in the work to which he has been eet apart, with the object of prosecuting it with all the vigor that it demands, and would heartily commend him to the sympathy and support of all our pastors, elders aud people in that province. 11. The General Assembly note with regret the disappointment of Mr.- Wilkie in not getting from the ( '< overnment of India the ?10,000 expected towards the erection of the College buildiug at Indore, tbui leaving the buildiug in an unfinished state, only the first story being complete. Appendix No. 11. cxxvu. The (ieneral Aa.sembty therefore commends it to the liberality of the Chnrch, and trusts that this disappointment will not deprive tl e mission of the full beneiitof that building, which is so much needed for the prosecution of the work. 12, That the General Assenbly record their appreciation of the Rev. J. k. McDonald's self- denying labors amongst the Inc ian tri jes at Alburni and on Barclay Sound, and express their sympathy with him, and with hif. sister who has also ronderod valuable assistance to the mission, and whose extreme weakness has made it necessary for Mr. McDonald to accompany her to Ontario at this time. They are both conruended to the grace and compassionate care of Him in whose service they have been spending tht o daytj. 13. That the Assembly record their gratitude to Gol for the suocass that has attended the Iftbors of our missionaries amongst the Indians of the North-Weiit ; for the disposition giveu to so many of our people to contribute such large quantities of clothing for the relief of suli'-.iring, and for the growing desire on the part of the Indians themselves to have their children etijoy t'ls advantages of our schools; and that the Assembly express their approval of the principle of com- pulsory education as applied to the Indian children, and also approve of the proposed change in the relation of the (Jovernmont to the Uegina scliool, but urge the import inco of such definite arrangements being made, as will avoid ar^y possible misunderstanding ar.d complication in the future as to the maintenance of the school. 11. That the General ABsc-mVdy commoiul tho diligence of Dr. Webster in his (.liliioult undertaking, and express their high souse of the value of his report on the condition uf the Jews in I'alo^tiiif, aad approve of tho action of the F. M. C. in asking him to visit other ctntros of Jewish population before fixing upon any tleld of labor amongst tlie .lews, and al^o in calling his attention to India and China, iiud asking whether he would be willing to go to one of these missions in the event of his not linding himself called to any particular field of labor amongst the J ewe, 15. That the General Assembly express gratitude for th" succoss grantel to Mr. Newmark in his work amongst the Jews of Montreal, and approve of the action of tho F. M. C. in appro piiating §1,500.00 for the maintenance of that work during tho coming year, and also in leaving tho direction of Mr. Newmark's studies to th« Montreal Presbytery, and tho Assembly instruct the Presbytery to report to the next meeting of the General Assembly through the F. M. C. (W.D.) 10. Inasmuch as tho natural development of the work in each of the fields occupied by the Church necessarily involves an increased expenditure, and inasmuch as there is reported in con- nection with the work of tho liast?ra Section of tho Church a deficit of $',), KUi.OO, that the General Assembly adopt the estimates of the F. M. C. for the coming year, namely, 133,500.00 for the Eastern Division, and $115,000.00 for tho Western Division, and appeal to the Church for such a response as will be worthy of the Church and of the work. 17. That the General Assembly instruct the F. M. C. to consider what steps, if any, can bo taken in order to provide funds for tho erection of such buildings for our missionaries as will protect their health and enable them to do their work elliciently without drawing too heavily on the ordinary revenue for Foreign Mission work. 18, That the General Assembly record their thankfulness to God for the large measure of success granted to tho W. F. M. S. both in the Eastern and Western sections in exciting a wiue- .spread interest in missions, and in making such a large contribution towards tho Church's F. M. funds, and would also whilst endeavoring to elicit yet tjreator liberality, not forget gratefully to acknowledge the generous contributions of very many of our congregations and individuals in the years that are past. cxxviii. Appendix No, 11. lit. That the (ieneral Aaaembly would draw the nttention of the Church to sei,. 2, p. 115, of the report of the F. M. C, which readri aa fnllowB : — " The total amount raised ti'is year is con- Kiderably above that of last year, but that is owing to the greater amounts contributed to the Fiiml by the W. F. !M. S. It is noticed that congregations take advantage of the irereased amounts raised by tho Woman's Society to correspondingly decrease the contributions froui congregational funds. This must seriously affect tho F. M. work, for the funds raised by the \V. F. M. S. are devoted excluHively to work among womnn and children." The (ieneral Assembly pray thnt no spirit of antagonism may exist between the friends of these two great sources of the Church .= revenue, but Mint all diligence may be put forth in order that all the gifts of the people of (iod may tinJ their way into that depurtment of tho Churcli'.s work to which tho Holy Spirit proiujiifd them to yive. iih [i.] APPENDIX No. 12.

The following list will ' ■ lish full particulars and show what was payable under the old rule, and the amount paid unde, 'le new rule, as directed by the last General Assembly. It may be e\i>lained, that fearing that 1.110 funds available would be inaulhcient for the payment of the full annuities, a moditication was introduced, under which the rule after twenty-five years of service was departed from, and only 9't paiil for each year of service after twenty-five, instead of $10. While this discriminated against the longer service ministers, as was done in the past, it secured to them in tho twenty-five year limit the largest annuity paid for somej'oara, and the half-allowance for years in excess of the twenty-five wa.s just so much increase. The Committee hopes that increased liberality on the part of congregations will render a continuance of the moditication unnecessary, and that those who have been laboring ho long in the work of the ministry will have justice done to them. It may bo further explained that the hiuh entered in the column headed " Amount naid under Old Kule," is the actual and not the theor> eal amounts — that is, the sum is not in each case that which would have been payable on tin lata under the heading " Years of Pastoral Service." Investigation has, in some cases, lessened tlie years of pastoral service from what was formerly claimed, and hence the sum formerly paid doos not agree with the theoretical amount for the years I if actual service. Thou it will be understood that tho amounts given under the new rule are with the modification, after the twenty-five years of service referred to above. 111.

It may be further explainei' that in the case of two or three of the annuitants, slight inaccuracies occurred in making up tho lists These, however, will be corrected on the next half-yearly list. The Rev._ R. Rogers, placed nn the list of annuitants some years ago, bat whose annuity was with-held owing to his being engaged in regular work, is now fully on the list. The case of the late Rev. Andrew Wilson called for the special attention of the Committpe. He was suddenly stricken down with paralysis, and under the circumstances it was felt that hia case called for special and immediate action, which was given to it, and he was placed upon tho list at once, commencing from the 15th of September last. However, he was not long spared to enjoy its benefits. Death has removed an unusually large number from the list during the year, and in addition to these, two others, the Rev. Peter Currie and the Rev. Geo. Brown, had died before the last nieetiiif; of Asriembly, although the fact was not known to the Committee at the time. During the year the following annuitants have been called to their final rest : — David Beattie, A. A. Drumuiond, \Vm. Fraser, D. D., Robt. Monteith, Robt. Dewar, J. R. .Scott, Andrew Wilson, Alexander (Jrant. The Committee has also to report special action in a few cases, viz :— In the case of the Rev. Robt. Jamieson, whose annuity has been withheld for the reason given in the last report of the Assembly. Also in the case of the Rev. Thomas (Joldsmith, a part of whose annuity was withheld on account of his being statedly engaged in connection witii St. Paul's church, Peterborough. Tho case of the Rev. W. M. Christie has also had specal consideration. He h.is been engaged in cuntu'c- tion with the Home Mission work for the last six months. The Committee decicLnl to allow him half-aunuity for the last half of the year, in view of the special circumstances connected witii liis case. The Committee haw also deemed it wise to deal with a few eases where the circumstances of the lu'ethren seemed to demand something more than the annuity under the rule, and the followiii;,' additional amounts have been granted for tho year, namely : -Rev. John .McNahb, .$.">0 ; Rev. Smith Hutcliison, !?45 ; Rev. Thos. Hanran, ■'i?35. It may be mentioned tliiit these supplementary grants, while quite within tlie rule (15) will bring the annuities of thes'; biuthreti up to the amount which they formerly received. The Committee desires to have the Assembly interpret Rule 13, as, while it would seem to pei- mitof the full annuity being paid to annuitants wlio have attained the full age of seventy, wi'.hoiit regard to employment, provided they have been permitted to retire from the active duties of the ministry by the Assembly, the unwritten rule in the i)ast has been, that where the minister returned to renninerative employment, the amount was either reduced or withheld. Appendix No. 14. VI. ENDOWMENT FUND. The ReV; Mr. Burns, Secretary and Agent has continued to give constant service to this branch of the Committee's work, as well as^to the Ordinary Fund. The rather general depression in finan- cial circles has rendered progress in the matter of subscriptions very diftioult. Still, much has been •lonO; and many promises have been given whioh will no doubt lead to definite subscriptions in the no distant future. Three Synods have been visited and addressed in the interest of the Fund, as well as a number of Presbyteries, and in a number of cases Presbyterial organization has been made for a canvass on behalf of the Endowment Fund. An organization by means of which the influence and support of the Presbyteries will be secured, is necessary for the success of the Endowment. In a few instances, at least, the work has been entered upon, and it may not be out of place to mention that two congregations, where they are only able to pay the minimum stipend, having a compara- tively small membership of 125 and 159, the aggregate subscriptions are respectively .§514 and 8592. When two small congregations can do so well, how easy it would be to reach the whole amount of the Endowment if the more able congregations would relatively do equally well. The following shews how the Endowment stands at the close of the Church's year i— Subscriptions and Bequests (about) §113,000 00 Amount of Capital prior to the new movement 15,050 00 Making a total of .5128,050 00 The total amount paid in on account of the new effort to the above date is .§86,342.28. ARREARS OK KATKS. Reference n the Financial Statements will show that considerable progrens has been made in the Collection of the Arrears. Acting under the authority of the last Assembly, the Committee fixed the 1st of March, 1893, as the date at which the arrears must either be paid or arranged for, or full benefitto be forfeited. This decision was communicated in good time and very many of the minis- ters paid up, either in part or in full, and gave a note for tlio balance. It was felt that this course was justifiable, as very many were not in circumstances to pay in full at once. It will be readily understood that a very considerable part of of tne Secretary's time was taken np, first in ascertain- ing accurately the amount of arrears in each case and in attending to the voluminous correspondence which the collection entailed. The results, however, are most satisfactory and will go far to place the Fund in a more attractive ccmdition. PItforts were also made to reach the ministers who had not connected themselves with the Fund. Special circulars were prepared and sent to them, and all reasonable means employed to get them to consent. It is a pity that any minister in the Ohnrch should be unc(mnected with this Fund, as their bt'ing connected would greatly deepen their interest in it and consequently quicken their advocacy of its claims. Applications for leave to retire from the active duties of the ministry, and be placed on the Fund for benefit, have been received from the fcMowing ministers : — NAME. PRKSBYTKRY.

Colter, whose efts'! was before the Committee a year ago and referred back fov investigation, ami whose infirmity seems w be fully established, it is recommended that he be granted leave to retire and be placed on the Fund for half-benefits in accordance with the rule for non-rate-paying minis- ters. The application of Rev. Robt. Hume was before the Committee last year and reported upon unfavourably. The Committee does not recommend that leave to retire be granted, but recom- mends that he be placed on the Fund for half-benefit for one year. In regard to the application of Rev, Dr. Ure, who was permitted to retire two years ago, but did not then desire to go on the Fund, it is now recommended that his application to go on the Fund for benefit be granted. _ With reference to Jso. V. of the recommendations passed by the last Assembly, (page 20), under ...lich the amended Rule 8, was left optional for one year, the Committee has dime all that was possible under the circumstances, but is imable to report full results, and therefore recommends that the option be continued for one more year.

Jo. MINISTERS' WIDOWS' AND ORPHANS' MARITIME PROVINCES. FUND The Committee on the Presbyterian Miniatera' Widows' and Orphans' Fund, of the Maritime Provinces, beg leave to report aa follows : — The receipts for the past year have been as follows :— From Ministers' rates SI, 49'.! 38 From tines and intt-rost on account 24 50 From conj^regationul collections . 220 72 From interest and dividends 4,094 06 Total 85,838 06 The paymints have been For annuities §3,229 25 For exjjenses r>17 05 3,746 30 Leaving a balance of 82,092 36 to be added to the capital of the fund, vhich, with cash on hand, amounts to 887,442 78. This is really an increuse (m our assets of 83,802 46, the difference being in the increased value of stocks held iiy the Committee. During the past year two minic--^rs upon the fund liave died, the Kevs. >Ioxander Faiipihar- sou and J. U. Fitzpatrick. The latter was unmarried, but the former has ki i widow and three orphan children chargeable upon the fun.l. One widow, Mrs. William Donald, has ilied, leaving the number on the fund the same as last year, eighteen. Two orphans on the fimd have reached the ageof eighteen, and the numl'ir now on the fund is twenty-two. T} h being the period of the quinquennial revision of our rates, the Committee have carefully consiiiered the subject and liave agreed to recommend the following alterations in the terms of the fund ; — First, that the annuities payable to widows and orphans be increased one-tentii. Secondly, that liulc V. be amended by siil/stituting for the words "second first July f.iUow- ing," the words " first of July two y.-aifc after." These proitosals, according,' to By-Liws 15 aud ItJ, hivin:,' l)>'.tin submitted to a mreting of minis- ters beneficially interested in tiuj fund, and also to the Synod of the M^aritime Provinces, and ap- proved by them, arc- now submitted to the General Assembly for adoption.

REPORT OF COMMITTEE ON THE DISTRIBUTION OF PROBATIONERS. 1892-3. Your Committee on thn Diatrilmtlon of Probationers have to report that, as appears from Appenilix II, 25 names were upon their roll for the year oloaint,' with the present montll. Of these two were entered in April, IS'Jl, ami one in .Tuly of the Hamcyear. Of these three, one has returned to Scotland permanently, and two have tak^n api)ointments in mission fields— Mr. Patterson in the Presbytery of Barrie, and Mr. Mullan in thut of Lindsay. Twelve were enrolled in 18'.»2 two in .Tanuaiy of that year, two in April, three in July, four in October and one in Docember. Of thuso lieKinninK their apijointuients in January one, Mr. Bloods- wiTth, was inducted into a pastoral charge in August ; of those in April, ona was inducted in October, Mr. Barclay ; of those in July, one was settled in Novondier, Mr. JlcClunt' ; so that of the seven, three settlements took place. Of those beginnin),' their appointments in October two were settled in January of the current year, and one is reported as huviiiK' taken a nnssion field in Peterborouyh Presbytery. Air. flraeb, whose name first appears on the list in December last, was ordained and inducted to a settled charge in May of the current year. Since the commencement of the present year ten names have been enrolled for appointments ; namely, five for the first cpiarter and five for the second. Of those for the first nuartcr, one has been inducted ; one did not fiilany appointment, so far as known to the Committee, but took work in a mi^fsion field, and another took similar work in a different Presbytery. (>f the five belonging to the last ([uarlcr, one has gone to Britain for a time, but expects soon to return ; the other four art f\iltilling their appointments. Thus, it appears thato f the -Ti names reported and accepted for Probationary service, five have taken work in mission fields ; one was clropped for reasons that seemed to the Committee to call for such .action, but not in imy way relKotiiig upon the character of the person ; one returned to Scot- land permanently, and one for a season ; seven are settled in charges, and ten aro still on the roll. In this pnrt of their Iteport yoiir Committee would call attention to the character of the supply placed at their disposal. Delicate as it is to refer to the subject, yet it cannot lie overlooked, and it slmuhl not pass witho\it remark that scarcely any of the yinmger men, and of the Licentiates of the Church apply for work through their Presbyteries to ymu' Committee. In most, wo had nearly said in almost all cases, it is men who have been in the ministry for a time— some for a considerable time, — an(l who have felt constrained to ten 4^ 4^ r^\ r ..«" '- <* ^ <«>.

Appendix No. 18< monotony of the Commit'' ee in its meetintn, and impart information of interest and value to the- Church, Such letters aa the following, which we take the liberty of inserting in this Report, and which were sent in reply to special application regarding certain points, would be prized by the Committee and would oe useful to direct them in their quarterly distribution. Mr. Wilkin^, Clerk of the Presbytery of Kingston, writes :— My dear Dr. Torkanok,— The Manse, Trenton, 20th April, 1893. I think I reported to you some time ago Rottun and Thurlow as a vacancy. It was for a while reduced to the position of a mission station and supplied by a student missionary for the purpose of reducing the cost to the Home Mission Fund. _ We then urgod that they should either make arrangements to have an ordained missionary appointed or be rained again to the posi. tion of a vacant congregation, and take steps for having a minister called and settled. At the last meeting of our Presbytery, Roslyn and Thurlow was raised to the status of a congregation ; a grant of $20() from the Augmentation Fund was asked and obtained for it in the event of a settlement, and it is now vacant, and practically the only vacancy in our Presbytery open ^or probationers. The ■Rev. Jas. Rattray, of Melrose, is Moderator pro tempore. Camden VIII and Tamworth, from which Rev. W. S. Smith was translated to the Presbytery of Lanark and Renfrew, has been reduced to the position of a mission station. They only contributed $450 themselves toward minister's stipend, were in arrears to Mr. Smith and in a deplorable condition, owing to internal strife. To send a pri>- bationer there would only be to waste his time so far as obtaining a settlement is concerned. Olenvale, Harrowsmith and Wilton, from whieh Rev. Geo. Porteous was loosed to act as an ordained missionary in the North Hastings field, announced through its representatives at last meet- ing that they wished to extend a call to Rev. Mr. Fleming, of Athe)i8, in the Presbytery of Brock- ville. The Rev. J. D. Boyd, interim Moderator, was authorized to moderate in a call, and has, 1 believe, done so. To report Glenvale, Harrowsmith and Wilton as vacant would therefore be to deceive probationers. A year ago we appointed Mr. D. G. McPhail, whom we licensed and ordained in May, ordained missionary at Pioton, which after Mr. Ooulthard's removal was in no condition to be left to the chance of probationers caudidating (if the congiegation was to be saved from disinte- gration. ) I am to preach next Sabbath at Picton, and on Monday moderate in a cal!, which will be unani- mously in favour of Rev. D. G. McPhail, B. A., who has, during the past year, done splendid work at Picton. This is the state of things in our Presbytery. Roslyn and Thurlow, recently raised from the position of a mission stbtion, is the only vacancy we really have. I am The Rev. R. Torrance, D. D., Ouelph. Yours fraternally, Wm. Thoh. Wilkins. Mr. Fleming, Clerk of the Presbytery of Chatham writes as follows :- VACANCIES IN CHATHAM PRESBYTERY. Rev. R. Torrance, D. D. Dear Sir,— It seems desirable that I should do a little more than ju.^t name the vacincie^: in this Presbytery. We have first West Tilbury and Comber. This stands on the list as a vacant charge and is such, but only in a sense. It is regularly supplied by the Rev. A. T. Colter, u man not strong physically and liable, as he says, to be laid up at any time, and so afraid to accept a call from the field. He is virtually, though not nominally, the minister. The congregation is prosper- ing in his hands, and Presbytery is not willing to disturb the present arrangement. 2nd. Buxton and Union. — This field was given the status of a vacant charge about a year ago and gave a call to Mr. P. McNabb, licentiate, to whom it was much attached and fur whom it was able to raise more money than for any other it knew. Mr. McNabb declined the call, and it is not now able even to pay for the supply of probationers. In hope that a better state of things may be reached. Presbytery, without lowering its status,^ has allowed a stiulent to go in for the summer. It is nominally a vacancy, in reality a mission station. 3rd. Blytheswoocf, etc.— Mr. James Gilchrist was inducted into the pastorate of this field mi March 28th, 189:J. ■tth. Leamington was reduced to the status of a mission station on the 14^1i March, 1893, ami U supplied by a student. 5th. Windsor.— This charge became vacant on the 10th of this month (April), and the supply of the pulpit was left in the hands of the Session till our next regular meeting on the 10th of July next. Possibly the foregoing statement may help you to understand more clearly the circumstances of our vacancies. Yours very truly^ Essex, lOth April 1893. W. M. Fleming, Prcs. Clerk, Appendix No. 18. 111. raised from the I of this field on ■ch, 1893. and U Both of these communications will repay perusal, and they are too interesting to be dismissed with a mere reference to them, They show that the interests of vacancies are beinjf diligently attended to in each of these Presbyteries, tn the light of them and others such, the Committee would be able more intelligently to prosecute their labours. As it is expected that some change will be made by this Assembly either in the constitution ot the Committee or in the principle or mode of distribution, your Committee will forbear from extend- ing_ their Report, or offering any recommendations. They may, however, state their conviction, which has been produced and confirmed by experience, and which may, therefore, be deserving of some consideration on the part of vour venerable Court, that it would be in the interests of the Church and most in harmony with the genius of the Presbyterian form of government, if all miniscers without charge who are seeking % settlement, and all Licentiates had their names placed at the disposal of the Committee appointed ; and if all vacancies, including the strongest and mos influential in numbers and in other respects, were reported for more or less supply. In sonie Pres- byteries, such as Toronto and Guelph, the Aseombly regulation on the subject nas been carried out, and it is conhdently believed without any injurious results to the vacancies within bounds. Again, Presbyteries should be restricted as to the men whose names they certify for appoint- ments, or the Committee vested with some authority as to receiving them, after corresponding with Presbyteries in the case. Other changes suggest themselves, but for tho reason already stated your Committee refrain from offering them. All of wifiich is respectfully submitted. ROBERT TORRANCE, GuKLi'H, 15th May, 1S9S.

Marsh the last question. Of the 7CH> Sabbath Schools reported 429 gave something to missionary purposes ; 277 Sabliath Schools gave absolutely nothing. It is hopeful to find that a good many of our Presbyteries have been startleil by the large number of Sunday schools which did no mission work last year. Among the 42!) schools reported as contributing the methods and measure of giving vary very much. In some cases the members of the schools contribute by collecting cards and mission books. A few schools report thut what is left after paying the current expenses of the school is given to missionary work. It is not an uncommon practice to vote 10, 20, 25 or 50 per ct. of the gross collections to some Scheme of the Church. In some schools the first collection ut each month goes to mission work, the remainder going to current expense. In other schools this plan is just reversed. In not a few schools the whole gatherings of the classes go to missionwork, while the necessary expenses are borne either as a part of the current charge of the congregation, or by special collections as needed. In reviewing these facts your Committee would record its gratitude for the large measure of the grace of liberality which already exists on the part of the membership of this Church ; for the pro- gress already made in the direction of systematic storing and giving ; and for the progress manifest during the p.ast year. We are glad to believe that a growing number of our people are '■ising to the meaning of giving as an act of worship, and are adopting the scriptural rule of laying by them in store as God has prospered them. But the facts elicited in these returns, and the tenor of Pres1)y. terial reports make it abundantly clear that a very large field yet remains to be cultivated. Kven a casual examination of the i)resent condition of giving throughout our Church shows that but a small proportion of our people yet understand the principles of stewardship, or seem to realize the duties or renponsibilities arising out of the possession of wealth or competence. The problem (>f the development of the missicmary efficiency of our Church lies not in seeking to draw "ut large contributions from a few individuals or congregations, but in educating the rank and file of our membership to systematic and proportionate giving. It is well within the knowledge of your Committee that in connection with our most liberal congregations many do little or nothini,' for those Schemes which re])re8ent the aggressive power of the Church. While many congregations, some of them comparatively strong, seem to think of little beyond a decent provision for the sup- port of ordinances within their own bounds. Many individuals and congregations render faithfully unto the Lord's Treasury out of their abundance which He has given them. But so long as tin great body of the people fail to appreciate the duty and privilege of serving the Lord with their substance, so long will our Committees be haunted with deficits and crippled in seeking to enter into new fields white to the harvest. The remedy must come through the Church's awakening to a sense of its shortcoming in this matter and becoming fully seized with the vital relation between stewardships on the one side and personal piety and aggressive work on the other. The puluit can do much to instruct the congregation on the general principles involved, but intelligent members of the congregation can do more in introducing practical methods. Two things encourage your Com- mittee in facing the wide field committed to it : Some of our Presbyteries which have long had a good degree in this grace have during the last year taken vigorous stej^s in advance ; and in almost every report wheie anything was added to the bare schedule, the importance of the work was emphasized, and recommendations adapted to local circumstances made. Your Committee would respectfully submit the following recommendations for the consideration of the Assembly :— 1. That the Committee on Systematic Beneficence be re-appointed and directed to use diligence in securing a fuller statement of the actual condition of this question throughout our Church. 2. That thereafter statistics be only sought each third year, and that the work of the Committee in the intervening years be directed to the circulation of information, the dissemination of literature, and oper- Church is what she is, a jiower for good, largely because of godly and large-minded men in the Eldership ; yet there is sutticient reason to ask the (luestion, Can we not have a much more efficient Eldership?" 25 u. AVi'ENDIX No. 21. To a large extent the Minister innlceH tlie Elder, and a nymimthetic Segnion acting; witli tlio Ministry for the advancement of the cauno of ChriHt niUKt ma]rt is, that in Bible Class a special course of Scriptural lessons is drawn up by the pastor and supplemented by studies in Church history and Church government. The Shorter Catechism is almost universally used except in the Infant Class," " In addition to its use some pastors follow the old-fashioned and much-to-be-commended practice of usinu it in pastoral visitation." (Hamilton and London). " The International Lessons are used in all our schools, as far as reported. In manv of the schools in rural districts the Catechism is faithfully taught, but the same cannot be naid for many Sabbath Schools in towns and cities." (Toruntu and Kingston). " Almost all the schools follow the International Scheme of Lessons, and use the Shorter Catechism." (British Columbia). In Halifax Presbytery a prize of a beautiful Bible in given for repeating the Catechism, and in this way quite a number of voung (leople have securoil a copy of the Holy Scriptures. Prince Edward Island Presbytery speaks of a latent feeling tl1.1t the International Lessons are to some extent responsible for a scrappy rather than a systematic study of the Word of God on the part of our Sunday School scholars. It also says " the Shorter Catechism is not so largely used as we should like to see it used." These answers ty])e the rest of the reporting Presbyteries, and therefore on the whole is highly^ satisfactory. As to additions made to the membership of the Church from the Sabbath School, little that is certain is given in the various reports, beyond the intimation that numbers have passed through the Sunday School into the Church. Our young people love the Church of their fathers, and ore thoroughly loyal to it, " It is to be regretted that comparatively few congregations report additions to their meiid]erHlii|j from the Sunday School. The whole question of the relations of the children of the Church to the Church ought to engage the attention of the wisest and most experienced leaders of the Church as to lead to the adoption of methods which should gently but surely bridge over the gulf whicli at present yawns between baptized members and members in full communion." (Prince Edward Island). Briefer reference is made to this matter in some reports, as : " Additions from Sabbath Schools were small during this year ;" (Minnedosa). " Only a limited number ;" (Truro). About 30 ; (Miramichi). About 28 ; (Inverness). 80 additions ; (Pictou). 40 (Westminster, B.C.) "Ac- cessions large." " Whilt. it is impossible to say precisely how much is due instrumentally to the Sabbath School, how much to home training, now much to the pastor, in the conversion of youth • * yet the gladsome fact is attested by many witnesses that a goodly number of our young people ore making public profession every year." (Montreal and Ottawa). " Congregations report ten, twelve, twenty, twenty-two, up to thirty of their young people " professing faith in Christ. (Hamilton and liondon), _ There is evidently considerableditficulty experienced in answering tlie latter port of the question, yet the indications given in the returnb are assuring, and well calculated to awaken in us gratitude and praise to God. i-.i ^ III.— The Mian8 EMPLovRn to Inform CoNoRKOATroNS, and Espkoially thr You.va, RKf;AHi)- iNO THK Missionary and Othkr Work of thr Church, and to Cultivatk Thrir Lihekal- ity in Supporting thk Samr.

The Leaflets \ prayer meeting tary Association, IV.--THK DisoHAUiiRor Paiibntal Duties and thb Cultivation ov Family Rblioion. Here we strike a stone of stumblinf^r to many Sessions. They cannot conceive how they are to get deKnite mformation touching the discharge of parental duties and the cultivation of family religion. In view of this, a fear might ariso that many Sessions never deal closely with those under their oversight in reference to spiritual matters. Surely thi.4 cannot be the case. Pastoral tidelity demands that there should be an intiinato acquaintance with the condition of the flock ia all their spiritual state. How can that be without enipiiry? And there is nothing " inijuisi- torial," as some designate it, in this. There is only the performance of a duty that even the people expectto be done, and they marvel and blame when it is not done. .M^ny a family altar is in ruins and needs to b- rebuilt, but no convicting word, no oncouraging word is ever spoken that this may be done. Family worship lies at the root of family religion, and ia the very strength of church life. "In nocase are the answers so uns.itisfactory as those given given under this head. None report deflnitely ; some speak hopefully. A larf^e number tind it hard to answer at all, and get over the question by saying 'fairly well,' not as we would like to have it. Now are we simply to stop here? Can nothing be done to obtain reliable information on this all-important subject —family religion? One convener says domestic piety is sadly on the wane. Some are blaming the Sabbath School for this. The very opposite should be the case ; the Sabbath Scho A should help the children to 'show piety at home.' Another fears that parental authority is sadly on the wane. Children rule their ^)arents, and go where they please to church, or do not attend church at all. Whai is wanted is a great revival of u nily or home piety." (Toronto and Kingston). The Keport of Montreal and Ottawa says : " Usually a rough guest is made by Elders and Pastors and this is sent up as a report. This otf-hand guess m.ay happen to accord with actual facta, but just as likely it does not. All the Fresbyterial Reports concur in saying that family worship and family religion generally fall far short of what the Word of Gid enjoins, and what the momentous interests of the home require." From British Columbia's Synoillc\l Roport we quote the entire statement : " Family worship is apparently almost abandoned in som') sections of the Synod. Only the Report of the Presbytery of Westminster seems satisfactory under this head, and that mainly in the case of one or two congregations. Other Presbyteries, however, point out that parents do teach their children, especially on the Lord's Day, and in some instances in connection with the Sabbath School leason. Of course, family religion is a wider con- ception than family worship, but the data are few for presenting any conclusion in reference to that wider field, except that the fear is expressed in several reports that low ideals prevail iu this regard. Hamilton and London's Synodical Report ia : "Every Preabytery bemoans the partial, and, in some casea, almost total absence of some of the moat obvious indications and essential accomp.'vni- inenta of religious home life. Expressions of regret and dissatisfaction are general ; the shortcom- ings of parents are deplored, and from all quarters there is an impression created that in the family circle throughout the Synod religious life is not in a satisfactory condition. One report (Bruce) says : 'The practice of family worship is not general, and family training goes with family worship.' Another (Maitland) aays : ' Not over 4U per cent, hold family worship or make any attempt to teach the young.' Still anotner (L(md families.' The Presbytery's report adds the comment, ' If definite information such as this could be given with regard to all our congre- gatinns, in all probability some strange revelationa would be made.' Your Committee adds, were such a course takun throughout our Synod, could we without shame and humiliation face the deplor- able facta that would be brought to light ? " Theae Synodical Reporta fairly represent all that is found in the Presbyterial Reports in our hands. A very general complaint in the latter is that parents give over their children to the Sabbath Schools to be inatructed and ao eaae themselves of their duty. We think there ia good ground for alarm in reapect to this matter of essential importance. As Maitland Preabytery report has it : " Here lies well-nigh the chief explanation of want of spiritual life in our churches." A Session in Sarnia Presbytery aays : " Here lies the deadliest enemy of church work." In view of this some definite course ought to be pursued to remedy it. Guessing guards nothing— corrects nothing. Every Session ought to be instructed to be diligent in the duty of religious oversight, so that no family may be without a family altar— a spring of living water in the bosom of the home. 4 \y.

In reference to special agencies, they are nil over our Church the exception, and not the rule The number of congreg.itions is exceedingly huiaII that has had such nssistance. More conKdonto is felt in the regular Ministry than in Evangelists. But whenever Evangelists have been employml or' Evangelistic efforts put forth some good has resulted. The licv. Wm. Meilcle is mentioned as doing Evangelistic work in different parts of the Church, and always with good results. While no Evangelists liave been em])loyed in many quarters, we would be wrong in thinking that no Evan- gelistic work had been done. Everywhere efforts have been made to roach the carelens, the intem- perate, and n enli|;hten the ignorant, to lift up the fallen, tr) rescue the tempted, to save the lost. " Particular mention is made of the city of Montreal, and the varied and zealous efforts there to reach strangers, to rescue the fallen, and brn^ non-church-goers to the sanctuary. Cottage Prayer Meeting, Tract Distribution, Coffee I lousier, Heading Kooms, Honse-to-liouse canvass in all parts of the city, an*l personal dealing, are some df the agencies being empbiyed." (Montreal and Ottawa.) Every agency ought to be employed that will be the means of doing good to any. John Brown, of Haddington, near the close of his niini.s- tiy, said: "Were thu Lord to make nie young again, I think I would study to devise other nieaiiM for gaining souls than those which I have used, and i)rosecute them with more activity than I ever did." In very few cases have special agencies been employed, and where employed have not been attended with gratifying results. " The regular house-to-house and hand-to-hand work has been more satisfactory ; as one Convener puts it, ' hand-picked converts are like hand-picked ap|>les.' Yet whilst the 8|>ecial a(^encies have been dispensed with, the question is asked. Is there not a place in our work for the special revival ? May not some bo reachecl in this way ? It is well to weigh such a (|uestron before we set aside altogether the special agencies."— (Toronto and Kingston.) VII.— Causes which Opekate against Spiritual Proohkss and the Development ok Chuis- TIAN CHAUACTEU. One cannot read the Keports of Synoiis and Presbyteries attentively without having tlii" thought come in upon the mind— that while every place has some hindrance common to all such, a'* worldliness, intcmtJeraiice, Sabbath desecration ; some places have hindrances peculiar to them' selves, hindrances in addition to the common ones. Some neighbourhoods are nests of infidelity i some have the caste feeling developed to Asiatic perfection ; some have the dancing mania upnu them ; some are overwhelmed lay progressive euchre parties ; some are driven to their wits' end by meetings of this society and that : some are borne on by a flood of sensational entertainments either in Churches, or Lyceums, or Town Halls ; some so misplace worthy philanthropic enterprises as that they become all their religion. Men love ,';ilded substitutes for the genuine gold. But these hindrances require a special dealing with. "There is a specific remedy for each, which ought to be erajjloyed wisely and lovin^'ly till the evil is removed. " Such a serious view does one Presbytery (Paris) take of the situation that it recommends that the Assembly's Committee on the State of Religion be requested to incorporate in the tiueslions to be sent down to Sessions this year, one enquiring as to the existence of card- playing and promiscuous dancing, and the effect, if any, noted upon the spiritual life of the mem- bers and their interest in the Church's work."— (Hamilton and London.) " The sad list of hindrances is much the same as in past years. Worldlii.ess in its many fornix, Anmaemcnls are named, which do much to retard the work of Christ, and especially amongst tlie young. Evidently dancing and card playing are becoming more fashionable and therefore more dangerous. It is time that the statement "there is no harm in these things," was 9et aside.

KNT OF Chuis- [i-J APPENDIX No. Q2. REPORT ON SABBATH OBSERVANCE. m- The past year has been in some respects an eventful one in the history of Sabbath Observanco. An unwonced amount of attention has pathered around the subject owing to the battle of its friends and foes around the gates of the Columbian Kxhibition. Shall the gates of the great World's Fair be open upon the Lord's Day, or shall they be shut '; This was the issue. On both sides of the Atlantic strenuous exertions were made by the friends of the Sabbatli to secure the closinff of the gates. The friends of Mammon as vigorously demanded that they shoul.! be open. It became a matter for discussion in Cabinets, in Legislatures, in great Committees, Conventions, in Churches and Church courts. Hope and fear alternated in the breasts of those who stood forth as champions of the Day i<{ Rest. Sometimes it seemed as if victory must perch upon their banner. Eventually Mammon proved too strong. The gates are open. The commandmeut of God is sot at nought to satisfy the greed of men. Of course the brunt of the conflict rested upon the Christian people of the United States, IJut their efforts were seconded, so far as apj>eared seeudy, by the good people of this and other lands. A great sin is being committed at the very heart of this continent, and a great opportunity missed of giving an object lesson to the nations of the earth of the beauty and blessing of tlie Salibiitii as a day of rest. On' ^ood rosult will follow. The people of God will see the nature of the conflict in which tliey are engaged, and with what persistent courage they must contend, if they are to preserve for them- selves and the world this prictiyss jewel— the God-given Day of Rest, The greatneKs of the issue is being appreciated more and more. Besides this, attention has been further turned to the subject of Sabbath Observance by th discussions in Parliament over the renewed attempt to obtain a law to which reference will b ui.ide further on. Turning to the reports from our own Church, we are met as usual by facts that encourage and facts that depress. There must of necessity be a good deal of sameness in the reports forwarded to your Convener from year to year. The indications are in the right direction, increasing interest in the subject and more being done than ever to awaken the attention of our people to it. The Maritime Provinces rejoice in a well-kept Sabbath and good Sabbath laws. The same may be said of Ontario, and of Manitoba. The Synods of Toronto and Kingston, Hamilton and London and of Manitoba have little to complain of. The reports are not so good from the Province of Quebec or from the region of the setting sun ;— although in the reports from our most Western Synod there are signs of very marked improvement, ^ From these reports only a few particulars of special interest need be noticed. The Report of Synod of Montreal and Ottawa informs us that: — " In the city of >[ontreal Sabbath desecration is alarmingly (m tl > increase. More active thuii ever are our old foes, street cars, candy stores, cigar stores, fruit stmes and 'beaneries, ' many ■ f these stores being but cloaks for gambling and uncloanness. The performances at Shomer Park are still carried on both in open defiance of the law and every effort made by the lovers of God's Day." " Another pleasure resort known as Pars Royal goes to the extreme in showing what can \v done to disregard the Sabbath by the introduction of athletic performances, t iriic singing, gaiiiMii:g machines, etc." " Sunday labour has become an evil of great magnitude.'' " In Montreal there is a Sunday newspaper — a sensational and scurril'Uis sheet." Sunday excursions, work on the canals, loading and unloading vu.ssels, work in the cheese factories of Russelltown, on the Wellington Street Bridge are noted. The Archbishop of Montreal still proves a strong friend of the Sabbath, He has issued n pastoral in which he says: " I see with profound regret that in this city of Montreal constant etfurt.-: are being made to render this direction (his former pastoral) useless and prevent the faithful from conforming their conduct therewith." He then specifies numerous phases of Sabbath desecration, and continues: " I once more forbid, for Sunday and holiday, the organization^ under any motive whatever, of pic-nics and pleasure Appendix No. 22. u.

Some of these forms of Sabbath desecration have beon vigorously opposed by the pulpit, the Protestant press, the W. C. T. U., the Ministerial Association, as well as by our own Presbytery. It is (piite evident that the hottest of the tight for a well kept Sabbath will be in the Province of Quebec and in this great city of Montreal. From the Report of the Synod of Toronto and Kingston wo learn that the Presbytery of Owen Sound has entered a vigorous protest against the loading of cars and despatching of trains, from the C. P. K. upon the Lord's Day. Two of the reoomir.endations forwarded from this Synod indicate violations of the Sabbath which call for watchfulness (.n the part oi the Church. They are "That great care be exercised on the part of congregations, and individual members, in holdings meetings for business, such as Session Meetings, Committees, Temperance Meetings, etc. Tlius seeking to abstain from crowding into the hours of the Lord's Day (which is given for worship and rest) business which might be very easily transacted im one of the other days of the week." "That the Synod expresses its regret that too many of the members and adherents of our Church travel by rail or steumboat for pleasure or business on the Sabbath Day, and the Synod would earnestly recommend ail our people to abstain from such travelling on the Lord's Day." It is significant that the report of the Synod of Hamilton and London also calls emphatic attention to this latter subject. How far does it prevail ? To what extent are our own ministers and Church members guilty ? From the Synod of Manitoba the reports are encouraging. "Great improvement has taken place in the last few years, in the manner of observing the Sabbath," We find however, " Qu'Appelle complaining of Sundaj- teaming." Moose Jaw of unnecessary work in the C. P. 11. shops. The Presbytery of Calgary reports with pleasure "That the determined stand taken by the people of Lethbridge has now resulted in the closing of the I'ost Office there upon the Sabbath," This was one of the subjects before the Assembly last year. It shows that where the friends of the Sabbath take a determined stand and persist much can be done. The Presbytery of (luelph should be specially mentioned for its interest in this case. Vancouver reports " Running of trains, steamboats, excursions, boating, keeping open of stores, etc., the lovu of gain and the love of pleasure continue to make large and sad encroachments upon the Divine institution and upon the rights of those who seek properly to observe it," Attention is called to the "Sabbath work carried on at the Dominion Government Graving Dock at Ksquimault under regulations enforced by the authority of the Government, binding alike upon officials and employees." The Presbytery of Westminster reports great improvement since the passing of the Sunday causing Act by the Provincial Legislature. It calls attention to Sunday travelling and states that these Sunday travellers point to the example of ministers who use the trains to convey them from station lo station. The reports as a whole from the Pacific slope indicate encouraging progress. It is gratifying to note that most of our Presbyteries have special comuuttees on Sabbath ( Ibservance ; that from all quarters we learn that the pulpit, the Sunday School and the press have been freely used to teach the obligations and enforce the sanctity of the Day. Presbyterial conferences have in many cases been held with good effect and Presby terial action taken. In some places special organizations have been formed to promote the keeping of the Day. In (ine case it is a Christian Endeavour Society, in another a union of Temperance "-^cieties. It is worthy of note that with increasing determination working men through their organizations are insisting up(m their one day of rest in seven. Althougii these movements may lack the religious motive, still, as a Church, we should put our- >elves on record as in full sympathy with the object they seek to attain. All the reports express regret at the shelving by the Dominion Parliament of the Jiill for the better Observance of the Lord's Day and the rejection of Mr. Charlton's resolution for tlie closing of the Canadian Kxhibits at the Columbian Fair on the Sabbath Day. If the expressions in the reports may be taken as expressing the real mind of the Church we may hope yet to see the Bill become law. There is only one way of obtaining it, and that is by making our representatives in Parliament understand that we want it and are determined to have it. The Lord's Day Alliance urge again the policy of personally interviewing the memberg cf i'arliament in their respective ridings on this subject. The Presbytery of Ottawa did it last year in the case of ihu members for the city. The following resolutions were passed by the Alliance and have been endorsed by the Synod of Montreal and Ottawa :— "That an infiuential deput.ation be appointed by the Churches of the Dominion, either jointly or separately as may l)e most convenient to wait upon tlie .Ministers of the Crown to press for the dosing of the Canals and other Government works upon the Lord's Day, and to ask for legislation which shall reduce to the lowest possible point railway traffic on the Lord's Day and prevent tiie establishment of Sunday newspapers. " " That steps bo taken to have each member of the House of Commons visited by a nundior of the leading electors of his constituency to secure his advocacy and support of legislation for the better M 111. Appendix No. 22. I •.I protection of the Lord's Day. And also that the Churches be requested to consider the advisability of holding mass meetings in the cities and large towns for the purpose of deepening the interest (if the people in this subject." Altnough a large number of petitions in favour of the Bill have been sent in to Parliament the response was not what it ought to have been. Your convener, as Secretary of the Alliance for two years, sent out forms of petition, ten thousand each year. It is to be regretted that from many places, and eapecially from large and influential cities, no petitions worth speaking of were sent in. One is led to suspect that it is easy to get the talk which costs nothing but hard to get the active sympathy in work which may cost a great deal. Unless there is a much larger amount of dead earnest work all along the line there is not a shadow of a chance for the Bill becoming law. As Mr. Charlton's Bill, supported by a few others, it will r >ive scantly courteous treatment in the present Parliament, but as your Bill it would soon havu i riends enough in the House to place it on the Statute Book. Not a few good Christian workers still give this subject of Sabbath Observance only too scant place in their thoughts, but we believe it will force itself at no distant date upon the attention of all. The interests, the very existence of the Church will be found to be bound up with the right observ- ance of the Lord's Day. Some little misunderstanding has arisen in regard to the questions sent down by your Convener. Some years ago the ({uestion was raised whether these questions should be sent down to Sessions or to Presbyteries, and it was decided that it was sufficient to send them downto Presbyteries. The sentiment in that Assembly was that there were too many questions already sent to Sessions. Your Convener's questions were sent to Presbyteries through the Synodical conveners, The idea of the Assembly's recommendation was that these questions should form the basis of a Presliy- terial Conference on the subject. No wonder Sessions did not find them appropriate. Neither tlic circular nor the questions are to blame. >M RECOMMENDATIONS. (1) That the Assembly, whilst deploring the many violationa of the sanctity of the Lord's Day, would humbly record its giatitude to God for tiie large measure in which the Day is observed by the people of this land. (2) That Presbyteries be urged to hold stated conferences upon the subject of Sabbath Observ. ance and to make suitable arrangements to have the claims and obligations of the Sabbath brou^'ilt prominently before the congregations within their bounds.

Respectfully submitted, Ottawa, May 20th, ISO.J. W. D. AliMSTROXG, Cimirnn: v ./. '^«|- i^m [i.] APPENDIX No. eS. lere is not a REPORT OF THE COMMITTEE ON SABBATH SCHOOLS. lUDve comiilet. The work under the care of your Committee has developed to such a degree that ft was fotind necessary to divide the burden between two joint conveners— Mr. Fotheringham taking charge of Statistics and the ^i>»ic Study Lcatfet, and .Mr. Stuart of Finance and Higher Religious InstruC' tion. An Advisory Council consisting of members of the Committee residing in Toronto, was also ormed for the purpose of assisting Mr. Stuart in his duties. Although a part of the scheme of Higher Religious Instruction, it was found most expedient to iiublish the Teachers' Preparation Leaflet along with that for .scholars; it, too, has therefore fallen to Mr. Fotheringham's oversight. Under this arrangement the work has continued to expand so that now both conveners declare their inability to continue it any longer in connection with pastoral duties. The Committee respectfully and earnestly urge upon the Assembly the adoption of such measures as will secure the continued efficient conduct of the work. In order to facilitate comparison this report is drawn up after the same plan as former years. I.-STATLSTICS AND FINANCE. The returns of this year are, in nearly all cases, an improvement in accuracy and fulness upon those of 18!>1. The Presbyteries of I'ictou, Lunenburg and Shelburne, Miriimichi, Montreal, Lan- ark and Renfrew, Whitby, Chatham, Maitland and N'ancouver Island have reports from all their schools, and but one or two are lacking in Inverness, Halifax, tjuebec, Lindsay, Toronto, Owen Sound, Saugeen, Guelph and Stratford— nineteen in all as against seventeen last year. The joint convener in charge of this department gratefully testifies to the persistent and painst:<,King efforts of Presbytery conveners, by whose too little appreciated labors he is able to present so reliable a statement of the actual condition i>f our work. Thanks are also due to Mr. D. Torrance Fraser, a member of the Committee and Statistical Secretary of the Quebec Provincial S. S. Association, for valuable assistance in connection with the I'resbyteries of Quebec and Montreal. No report is given for the Presbytery of Ottawa. One was received about the middle of May, after repeated letters and telegrams asking for it had elicited no rejUy, but it was ao meagre and bore evidence of being so carelessly compiled that it was useless, and the figures of last year had to be substituted in order to obtain approximately correct totals for the Synod. It is exceedingly discouraging to find the loyal efforts of all other oon-.eners rendered to some extent futile by the negligence of one person. The returns show l,!t% Saltbath Schools in connection with our Church, an increase of 22. We would venture to estimate that considerably over 2,000 would l)e found, could we secure a correct list, l,70ti have sent in reports, an increase of i"i3, and the deliiu|uents are 2'.t0, or 31 fewer than last year. These figures are small, but they are on the right side. ATTKNUANCE. Officers and Teachers. — The whole number reported is l<),lt)0, an increase of 043, and answers have been rec<'ive(l from 1,710 sehools, or 58 more than last year. If we assiime that unreported schools are but one-third the average size, we may safely say that fully 17.000 teachers and officers are engaged in the work. Their average attendance is 87 per cent, as against S3.', last year. As that WHS in its turnjan advance of (i^ per cent., we may congratulate our teachers upon their growing in- terest and efficiency. (scholars.— The total number of scholars is 142,8.38, an incre.ise of 0,107. Reports havebeen re- ceived from 1,714 schools, an increase of 118; allowing, as usual, for unreported schools at the rate of 20 each, we Ivive a grand total of 148,478. A dei)artnient of our church work wiiich concerns itself with tlie religious education of nearly 100,000 of our yotuig people ougiit not to he relegated to any subordinate place in oiu- ecclesiastical arrangements. Making a deduction for those schools which reported total enrolment, but not average attendance, we find that {'tlh per cent, of our_ scholars were present each Sabliath, This is a slight improvement on last year. Let us hope that it is a sign of better things. For the first time the Assend)ly has asked that the net increase or decrease anniially be carefully noted. The great majority have given answers, a huge nunilier rei)ort no change; but this can be strictly true only in rare cases, altiiough it may be accepted as a correct rough estinmte. Accurate figures were given by 821 schools, and from these we learn that there has 1 'pen a slight decrease in the Presbyteries of Stratford, Bruce and Sarnia, and that the greatest increase has been in Kingston u. Appendix No. 23. (riGo) .ami Moiitrenl (439), We hope the Assembly will continue this column. Besides tlie general considerations applicable to every case, that frequent changes are confusing and comparison with pre- vious years are rendered dittictilt or imposnble, and that information must be sought for several years before fulness and uccuracy can be secured, there are special reasons why the rpiostion here asked should be retained. It has an educative value and constrains secretaries and superintendents to note morecarefully the scholars who join or leave a school and it enables us to obtain a bird's-eye view of the whole field so as to show where the Presbyterian population is decreasing and where it is multiplying by its own " outpopulating power." .::! ^'' , I 1 ■'■' ■•.;! 1 ' ;t 1 ; ■ ■■ I f 1 RECITATIONS. Scri}iture.—l,OT,i schools report 41,7(59 as committing to memory scripture vorses other than the Golden Text. If we assume that these schools contain a little over "one-half tlie total membershii), as they are a little over one-half the total number (say 75,000), and that 20 per cent, are in the prim- ary class, we have 60,000 who might be expected to engage in this important exercise. Of theHu about 70 per cent, are reported. This is a decided advance upon the 04 per cent, of last year, and again we note the hopeful sign. Shorter Catechism. — 1,212 schools, or 70 per cent., report r);{,!)93, an increase of 2,236, as eng.iged in the study of the Shorter Catechistn. Using the same data and method of calcnlation as in the preceding paragraph we find that this is only 0."> per cent, of the total number above the primary class. Had the number of those using the Shorter Catechism increased in proportion to the total membership we should have had nearly 56,000 instead of nearly 54,000 as in our report. Again, for the third time, our statistics show that some measures must be taken to revive the study of our doc- trinal text-book. The Committee are giving special attention to this subject and bespeak the co- operation of ministers and teachers. The number able to repeat the whole ('atechism is given as 4,100, an increase of 437; this in- crease is the more encouraging from the fact that fewer schools than last year have made entries In this column. Still, the total number is very small, and we hope does not adequately represent tlie condition of our schools. Doubtless many "know their Catechism " who have not reviewed it during the year, and in many cases in which no return i- made no trouble was taken to ascertain the figures that should be put down. Your Committee would urge the importance of ascertaining, not only how many learn the question on the lesson-leaf, but also how many nave mastered the whole Catechism, and are keeping it fresh in memory by ai. annual review. Home Preparation. —As in last report, we note with pleasure contin\ied advance in regard to home preparation of the lesson. 1,072 schools, an increase of .56, report 51,881 scholars, an increase of 1,705, as coming to the Sabbath School with their lessons prepared beforehand. Here, at one of its weakest points, our Sabbath School system is growing stronger and the methods pursued by the Com- mittee are approved. We have noticed in some Presbytery or Synod reports a desire to omit this and some other questions that schools find difficulty in answering owing to their imperfect system of re- cording. But we submit, with all respect, that we never shall raise the standard by lowering our demands to suit the case of those who don't care to be bothered. There are no reasons, save indolence and lack of system, why every school should not take note of the scholar's preparation of the lesson, What would be thought of a Public School teacher, trustee or inspector who would recommend the omission of such a vital consideration from the report of his schools ? If we are to secure due study of the lesson we must make our scholars feel that this is expected of them, and that note is taken of their diligence, or the reverse. Teachers' Meetings. — 220 weekly teachers' meetings for lesson study are reported — a decrease of six. May we not hope for a better return next year when the Teachers' Course with the Tcarhcri Leaiiet have become established. Nine hundred and fifteen, an increase of 161, are reported as having studied in connection witit the scheme of Higher Religious Instruction. CHCKCH BELATIONS. I- .-'^ Elders.— 2,'M^ elders, an increase of 70, are engaged in Ijl-^O fchools, an increase of 12. .\ pleasing indication of the importance attached to Sabbath Schools by our ortice-bearers. Public irofsA I/). --52,373 scholars, an increase of 71H, are reported by 1,339 schools, an increase of 60, as in regular attendance ujjon publi: worship. Pursuing the same method of calculation as before, and assuming that 76 per cent, of the schools will contain 76 per cent, of the scholars, we tiiid tint only a little over 46 per cent, of all our scholars attend church regularly. This is four por cent, loss than last year. To remove this column from our statistical tables would be ostrich wisdom. Kacli year it is answered more fully and each year emphasi/.es the same alarming verdict- our youn^ people are drifting away from the services of the Church. One of the most effectual restraints \ipim this deplorable tendency is to see that the questitm is asked of every scliolar " Were you i.tchiu'cli '!" Let the teacher never fail to do this, and faithfully y doing this we enable our schools to substitute the Honu StiiUi/ Lctittet for any others now in use with- out depriving the scholars of their accustomed assistance in i)reparing the lesson. Sample copies are submitted to the Assembly. The Teachers' I'rrparatioi] Lenfiit. — Your Committee were not able to make the necessary ar- r.ingementa for publishing this leaflet until after the New Year; the first number was for April 2nd. It was soon found that a mistake had been made in issuing it at all at so late a date and there wos little probability of very many entering upon the ' ' Teachers' Course " in connection with which it is published until next winter. The Committee have acconlimrly suspended its pulilication until next ■Fiinuary, and the last two numbers are laid before the Assembly as samples. The ("onnnittee con- gratulate themselves on having .secured the co-operation of Mr. James Tiu'ubull, B..\., late head- master of the Clint(ui, Ont. , High School, who contributes the teaching hints and notes, and Principal KIrkland, of Toronto Normal School, who prepares the analysis of the text-book. The exegetiod work and black-board outline are prepared by the editor. On the leaflet for M.ay 14th will be foimd a brief statement of the ideal whicii the editing Committee have set before themselves. OfU KI)l'C.\TI()NAL SOHKMKS. Your Committee would now briefly submit their whole educatioiuil scheme to the Assembly and recommend that Sabbath Schools be urged to place themselves in lino with it. (1.) The SchdHc of Lessons supplies a convenient list of the wiu'k to be done each Sabhath throughout tlie year. (2.) The Home Stiiri;/ Lutjict supplies the scholar with help and stinudus. It is uniipie in design and is aji- proved by the highest educational authorities. (3.) The Teachers' Leaflet, taken in connection with IV. Appendix No. 23. the Teachers Course, ' is carefully adapted to the practical nececsities of average teachers and schools. It IS original lu its plan, and confidently challenges acceptance upon its merits. (4.) Tho Scheme of Higher Religious Instruction, which, starting with the wants of the Sabbath School in its Biblical and Doctrinal departments, is capable of indefinite expansion so as to furnish suitable courses of reading with examination tests for a Young People's Guild. The whole system is self. consistent and closely articulated. Five years have been necessary for its evolution. It now rests With the Church to say whether it shall be continued or not. It cannot be carried on by any one in spare time, but deserves and demands the whole time and energy of a general superintendent of Sab- bath School work; either such an officer must be created or our carefully constructed system must dissolve and the labor of love with which it has been constructed prove " love's labor lost." •." Ttr^-J ■>til'. i •: i'Sl III. -HIGHER RELIGIOUS INSTRUCTION. Your Committee are pleased to report that this scheme is gradually taking hold of the heart and Ifie of our Church. A considerable advance in the number who studied under it indicates an increased interest in the work. About 1000 studied under the scheme of which 448 were candidates for examination. While this is a small i)roporti()n of the children under our care as a Church, it must be kept in mind that only the older pupils will study for these examinations, and that the scheme is but in Its infancy. In fact, it can only be said to be fairly launched this year in its completed form. It would thus be unfair to judge of its merits from the number of scholars trying its examinations at this early stage in its existence. In some (luarters the feeling prevails that the scheme is elaborate and complicated. Those who take the slightest trouble to examine it will find that it is simplicity itself, and that each department under it is complete and independent of the others. One very healthy feature of the work this year is the stimulus that has been given to the study of the Shorter Catechism. Not only has there been a largely increased number of candidates under this department, but judging from letters received by your Convener, there are indications that a much larger number are studyin,' with a view to examinations next year. If this scheme had done npthing more than to revive an interest in the study of the Shorter Catechism, which in many places has been crowded out of our Sabbath Schools, it deserves the favourable consideration and commen- oatiop 01 the Assembly. Your Committee having felt the necessity of putting forth special effort JPj'j'8 direction, have offered a diploma to all junior and intermediate candidates who shall be certi- fied by their Pastors or Superintendents as having answered correctly every (piesticm in the Shorter Catechism at one recitation. In addition to this, 00 per cent, of the marks given at the regular written examinatioiys in this department, can be obtained by the repetition of questions in tlie Catechism. We art tileased to see that the note of warning given last year by ns that our church is on the "down grade'' here, has been bearing fruit in the new interest aroused in the study of this most valuable compendium of Bible Doctrine. In had the honour and privilege of taking part in tliis ministry with the Great Te.aclier, who in all his life on earth showed the deepest sympathy for childhood, and who i-evealed to us that our highest manhood could only advance by reverting to the innocence and simplicity of the chiKI, in being co-workers witli " our Lord Jesus, that Great Shepherd of the sheep," who has given tiie com- mission to His Church, " Feed my lambs." RKt ;OMMEND ATIONS. 1. — That the General Assembly recommend the use of the Home Study Leaflet in its new and improved form in all the Sabbath Scho(>ls of the Church. 2. — That the Rev. T. F. Fotheringham be named the sole Convener for the comintf year, provided that he be empowered to employ a Secretary for clerical and other routine work at a cost not to exceed §400.00. 3. — That it be a recommendation to the congregations of the Church to take up a collection in aid of the Sabbath School Committee's funds on the last Sabbath of September, the day already fixed by the General Assembly as a day of special prayer on behalf of the Sabbath Schools of the Church. All of which is respectfully submitted. T. J. F. FOTHKHINGHAM, 1 , • ., ^ VI. Api'kndix No. 23.

The liest thanks nf tho Board am due to the (Jeneral Assembly of IS!12, for the response Riven to the petition of this l!(iard, nskinv; to participate in the lie(piest made by the late Mrs. Xicholls, of I'eterlioro', for ndssions in the Ndrtii-West. Hut for the help thus accorded to the Hoard, the W(U'k .if the past year would have been seriously cripiiled, as a lilance at the statement of the Treasurer will show. NKKD OK LAHilKI! UKVKNIK. The Hoard has to repeat its conviction that a larger fund is neeiled to overtake aderpiately the work of Church I'Atension in Western ( 'anada. The larL,'est loan the I'loard can make is oidy .S700, and that H^ure was reached only once in last year's transactions. .Several eoutrregrations were unable to builil because of the lindttil help tlu- Hciard coidd ijive, but much as this was reKrettod the state of tho treasury forbade any larger ait green for the coming time? And why should not this ?'un(l be roiuemliered in the wills of the wealthy? In eleven yenrs it re- ceived but four letiacies. This is not said by way of complaint, but to suggest methods of aid. THK WOUK QV KLEVEN YKAHS. The Hoard is convinced that no better jilea can be offered on behalf of the Fund than a state- ment of work done. The Board was appointed by the General Assembly of 1882, and is consecpiently eleven years in existence. In thfit time it has helpeil to erect 190 churches and iW manses, or '_';{:• buildings in all, being an average of 21 structures a year. These buildings %vere valued at over i^A')(i,. 000, and yet the Board never had more than one-fifth of this figure as capital. The impetus givin to building wil! appear, \\hen it is borne in mind that in 1882, when the Board began its work, tliere were only eighteen churches and three manses in Western Canada belonging to the Presbyterian Cliurch. There is not a village or town along the railway now ir \\e 1,800 mdes between Fort Wil- liamson and Vancouver, where this Fund has not helped to give visibility to religion. The Fund lia< assisted to provide homes for missionaries and their families ; it has snpidied congregations with the reipusite appliances for public worship and the exercises of the Sabbath school ; it has given the people a guarantee that the Church has come to stay and not to visit merely ; it has helped people to understand the solidarity of tlie I'resbyterian Church, and that bearing each other's burdens receives practical recognition at her hands ; it has helped to connect the? present of people's lives with the past— the ])ast with its pious memories and helpful associations — and has thus been a distinct gain t > religion and morals in this new land. The churches built are freely given to other denominations when not used by our own congrega- tions. Many of them have been used for school purposes in districts where the people are unable t > build school houstu. In mining and other districts they are often nsed as reinling rooms and thus help to keep young men from evil associations. The Board f "els that few worthier objects appeal to Christian men and women than the work of church extension 'n anew land, and buildings constitute an important factor in such work. And notwithstanding all t!iat has been done of late years not one Presbyterian congregation in three is provided with a place of worship. At about 41tO jmiuts services are held in private houses, school houses, railway station houses, halls, granaries and the Ifke, while about !.-'"> congregations are provided with churches. MK. MOHTON's CJE.VEB0U8 HELP. Th? B)ard has had laid brfore it last winter some correspondence that took place between some inembiPs of the Presbytery of (lalgary and the .Superintendent of Missions on the one side and .Mr. J. T. M irt m, of lionilon, Kngland, on the other. On representations made, Mr. Morton loaned t'iOO for the erection of three cliurohes in that Presbytery, the amount to be repaid in five annual instalments, no interest to be askeil if inyiuents were promptly made, otherwise five per cent. |Im- annum to be charged. Subsetpiently Mr. Morton asked the .Superintendent to act as his .agent, anil offered to loan hnn $70) more on terms similar to those on which the t'JJO wore loaned. The S.iper- intendent laiil the wh(de matter I'efore the Board, and asked the Board to assume all rosponsihility in the 1 )an of tVOO and to act as Mr. M irton's adiuinistr.ktors in the matter of tin- t'WD. After c^r- respomlence between the Board and Mr. Morton, an arrangement on this basis has been I'lfected, an.] Mr. .Morton is forwarding the additional sum iironiised to the Board. This help is a great relief t ) the Board in the pro.^ejutii)!. of its work this year, and Mr. Morton deserves tile cordial thanks, not only of the Bjaril, hut the Church, for his generosity. It is hoped that the course of tiie Board will meet with the a|)i)roval of the Assembly. liET.AILKl) UEPoUT OK CONCKEOATION'S AinRD.

The N. W. Land Co'y, the O. P. ll'y Co'y and the N. P. & M. Co'y still continue to grant tree fiitea for churches and thus put the Board and the Church under obligation. At several jjoints pri- vate persons have pursued a similar policy. In this way the moneys expended are for material or work and not swallowed up in expensive lots. The thanks of the Board are hereby extended to all such as have helped the Board in this way. REBATES. Railway companies still continue to make rebates on the transportation of lumber for the erec- tion of churches. The aggregate of such rebates constitutes a valuable contribution for the work of the Church, and these corporations deserve our cordial thanks. The Board cannot close this rei)ort without recording its gratitude to Almighty God for the measure of success attending last year's operations, and especially for the w.iy in which He has led us and our predecessors in all the work He has enabled us to do during the past eleven years, All of which is respectfully submitted.

Of the old Tonic-sol-fa edition of tlie Children's Hymnal 877 copies were distiibntrd giatuitoualy. In accordance witii the instructions Lfiven to the Committee at the last Oeneral Assembly, ti> consider the nuestion of enlarK'inj,' or revising tlie Church Hymnal, the Committee met in Crescent .Street Church, Montreal, durin^' the sittint,' of tiio Assembly, and afterwards in St. Andrew's Church, Toronto, from the 1-lth to the 2lst December last, iouii, ancl 3. That some of the present liymns should be dropped and others added. It was further judged advisable that a sutticient number of liymns suitable for the young, in- tiuding selections from and additions to those in the Children's Hyninal, should be incorporatid in the revised Hynmal, so as that it should bo adapted for Sabbath School as well ,ts other services. It was alpo agreed that the selections fii ni the Psalms shiiild f( rm the first part of the revised Hymnal, and that the remaining sekctions siiould be toiiically arranged, as in the present Hynmal, with a division added of Hymns for Meditation and Instruction ; and, moreover, tiiat there should be ajipendod a limited number of the simple anthems. A list of proposed changes and additions will be found in Appendix A. Should the \s.-.ombly express general approval of what lias been done, tlie Cfimmittee would re- commend that the ciiaiiges and additions (proposed in this report) be sent down for consideration of Presbyteries, witii instr\;ctions to report upon them tlirough the Hymnal Conimittee, on or before the 1st day of February, 181)4. Pending the ilecision < f the Assembly regarding a revised Hymnal, the Committee have extended the contract with the publisher for one year from the iilst of Decmiber, l.'>'.i2.

At the last niieting of the tleneral Assembly, the Comniittre was authorized to coi.fer with the Hymnal Committees of sister I'icsbj terian Chinches with rej^ard to a ci mmon Hyn.nal, and report to this Assembly. The Committee gave the matter due attention and it was 11iouL;ht advisable that advantage should lie taken c f the meeting of the Presbyterian Council in the City of Toronto to invite a con- ference on this subject with representatives from the various cliuiehts. Aceoidingly, o,i the 2!lth Septenilier, 1S'.I2, a joint meeting of men bers if the Ci uimittee and delegates to tlie I'resbyterian Council from the Ciiurch of Scotland, the Kiee Presbyterian ( 'huieli of Scotlaml, tl.e I'nited Pres- byterian Church ill Scotland, tiie Piesbyteriun Church in Kngland, and tiie Presbyterian Church in Australia, was iield in the lecture room of Knox ('liurcli, wl.eii, after a free interchange of opinion, the following resolution was iinanimc>usly adopted : — " In the judgment of this meeting, it is very desirable to secure a common Hymnal for the Churches in tlie liritish Kmpiie holding the l'r> sliyteiian system, and it is agrnd to appoint a com- mittee to prepare a statement to he comniuiiicated to the Supreme Courts of the Churches here rep- resented, ami to correspond at oiu o with Hymnal Committees (where such exist) in the several Churches, in older to have the matter of a eomnion liymnal lirought under the notice of tl.e Supreme Courts at as early a date as possible, and to take any other steps necessary to secure the object ittee wasainioiiited, and, by instruc ' w of this Com- A co]iy of the ciicuiiir will lie f 00 .> 70 7 00 7.") ■) 00 00 REPORT OF TlIK COMMITTEE OX STATISTICS FOR THE YEAR I'LNDIXCi 31ST DECEMBER, 1892.

At a niPctinK' of tlie (Jonmiittet^ in the month of Auiiust Kist attention was given to the reference to them l)y the last Assembly to considi-r, and provide for insertini,', a c(diinin in the Statistical Schedule inquirini; if Yountr l'eoii'>'s or other Societies had been formed in congre>,'ations and stations, auxiliary to the Ifome Mission ( 'ommittee, ami another amonp the ccdunms on Finances for entering the amounts coile('te.i ; and it was aijreeil that such columns shoidd bi' i)rovided, but, in order to procure a place for them, tin; cobnnn that has so loni? stood in the former for recordinj; the Muudier of volumes in S.ibbath Sclniol and Cons^re^'ational liibraries, and the cobunu in the hitter asking' the amount of stipend jiroinised by coni!rej,'ations alone, had to bo omitted. The report ol the Special i 'oiundttee which was ap|)ointi!d at the mettiuK of Asscndily in 1801, of which the i.ortion relatin;; to chani^es in the statistical cpiestions was referred to your Standing (*on\mittte. was considereil, at the same meeting, carefully and at (,'roat length, every alteration |irop<>sod lieing specially discussed. Your Committee, however, were \imxnimously of opinion that it was ni't expedient to adopt many "f the changes suggested. The work which is entrusted to your Counnittee, or to any (!onimittee of the kind, should not be subjected to many or frequent changes. 'IMie object ought to lie to get as full and correct a representation of the extent, machinery and work of the Church, in its most impoitant elements, as can be obtained. The procuring, taViulating and transiidttiiig of this may entail a large amount of labour, and hdxuir which is to some ndiids irksome and distasteful, yet no one should grtidge to give this in view of the present use to which the infornuition can bo turned, — yea, an ry to the llcuue Mission Committee, in the .Statisticid Scliedule. and for ciu-.-esponding colu... IS in the linancial part of the Report, liut the Hrst was demanded several years ago, the second at a later date ; and the thir 1 has jtist foimd an entrance, appearing as it does in this Iti'port for the first time, Imt the propriety of its insertion even for the present necessity can be f\illy justi- tied, as the fact has been elicited that there are 141 s\ich organizations ; and its insertion may lie of great use for the future, as it may liMd to the form;ition of such where they do not now exist, thereby carryim; out one of the movements of tin; Hiune Mission I'lUinnitteo, at least in the Western Section of the Church. So, also, had tlio time not (!onie when the Committee were justified in omitting the column asking for ttie munlier of volumes in Sabbath School and Congregatioii^il hiliriiries, aiul substituting in its place one for returns of more important present iuforuKitiim on another subject'? The informatior supplied in that column may be still ml has been, interesting and useful, but was it not UKUe so .at an earlier |)eriod in the history of our Church, and of our land, than it i< now when such facilities for instructi(m jiresent themselves i". the periodical literature which h.is ^uch an extensive circula- tion and which is generally regarded as nioie attractive than the soher, solid volume. The Itejiort of your Cotnuiitlei^ for l.v.'J lias to mention .an increase in the nuiaber of Presby- teries now in the boumls of the Assembly even in (Janada, to make no mention of foreign lands. The Presbytery of Algoma has been eic<'*ed within the jurisiiietion of tlie Synod of Toronto and Kingston, making 11 Presbyteries in that .Synod, and, in this respect, putting it on a level with the Svnod of the Maritime Provinces, although it falls more tluiti a hundred behinil it in the number of cluirches or stations supidied hy pastors. The former Presbyt 'ly of t'olumbia, too, has been dividoil into three Presbyteries, known by the names of Kamioops, Westminster and Yanconver Island, to which has lieen joined the Pre^^bytery of Calgary, separated for that ptirpose from the Synod of Manitoba and the Xorr.h-West Territorities the f.mr having been erected into the Synod of British Colundiia.

Ill Hkmov.vis by I)K,\TH thero has been an increase of 124; tho numbers for the respective years comiiared being 771 and ()47. Of remov:'.is by this cause the largest number has been in the Presbytery of Pictou, l'.»4 ; next in Halifax, 114 ; and so down to 21) in Lunenburg and Shelburne. Xo comparison is instituted as to the proportion which the deaths bear in the diiferent Presbyteries to the number of Families or t'onimunicantH. In the year 18'.»0 separate columns were provided, and separate returns asketl as to tho removals by disciiiline, by certificate and without cortiKcate. In the iiuestioiia prepared for the year embraced in this Keport the ipiestions "by discipline " and "without certiticate" were omitted. Some of the returns give an uni)ualitied answer to tho quos- tion "by certittcat(\" and some add "and other ciuses,'' but vour Committee cannot say to what extent these other causes havobeey taken into consideration. The total removals by certificate have been 1,210; last year the removals by discipline, certiticate and without certiticato, were 1302, giving a decre.ase in this item of 112. There has been a decrease of IH.-i in tiie number of I.nk.\NT.s Haptizki), the figures being 2,4Sl) ; and of 13 in the number of Adli.t.s, wliich sums up to 111*.

The congregations in the Presbytery of Calgary had in 1891 arrears of Stipend amounting to 8!>93, and Columbia had arrears of Stl9. The corresponding arrearages in 1892 were .S-')99, increase, •^tj ; and S511, increase 8442— giving a total increase of 8448. In the amount expended on Church ok Mansk there w&s an increase in the Presbytery of (!algary of .82,100, and in the others btlonging to the Synod of $2,446, being a total of 84,540. For other incidental and Congregational expenditures there was an increase in Calgary of 87'">, and a decrease in the other three of 8804, making an aggregate decrease for the .Synod of .8789. For strictly Congregational purposes Calgary expended in 1891 the sum oi 811,370 and in 1892 814,282, an increaRo of $2,9()(), and the three Prebbyteries now regarded as representing Columbia rose to .800,244, an increase of 84,979, giving a total increase of 87,88.' . In C(m1ribution8 to College Fund (ordinary) the Presbytery of Ca'gary fell from 8108 to 8*1; and theoth?r.s, which contributed nothing in 1881, rotu to 8195 in 1892. In the College Fund (special) Calgary contributed nothing in the former year, and nothing in the latter. Columbia contribiited 8251 in the former, while of the three Presbyteries now in its place, (mly one, Vancouver Island, sent any contribution and this was .890. Tc the Home Minsion Fund the i)ayment8 by Calgary in the latter year were 8218, an increase of .85, and in the other three 8713, a decrease of 807. In all the Presbyteries of the Synod there was an increase to the Fund for the Augmentation of .Stipend of 8127 ; to French F.vangeli/.ation of 815 ; a decrease of -8213 on Foreign Missions ; an increase of .828 on the contributions to the Aged and Intirmed Ministers' Fund of 82 ; to the Widows' •vnd Orphans' Fund, and a decrease of 823 to the Assembly Kxpense Fund. In 1891 the total paynusnts to the Schemes of the Church were 8300.5, and in 1892 they were .82938, a decrease of 8127. Calgary shows a ilecaease of 875, and the three a decrease of .8.52. On the amount contributeci by Sabbath Schools and Bible Classes to these Schemes there was a decrease of 803. 835 were raised by Women's or Young People's Home Mission .Societies. There was a decrease of .850 on the amount raised by Women's Foreign Mission .Societies ; an increase of •870 on payments to Synod and Presbytery Funds, and of 8158 to all other Keligious and Benevolent Purposes. The contributions for All Purposes in 1891 by the Presbytery of Calgary were 812,490, and of Columbia 8i>0,759. In 1892 Calgary gave an increase of •82,799, and the Presbyteries representing Columbia <.f 80,975, being a total increivse of 89,774. SUMMATION. st.\tist:c.s. In 1892 there was an increase of 283 on the Churches .ind .Stations aupplieil in connection with P.istoral Charges, and of 31,974 on the sitting accommodation which these afforded. The numljfir of fanulies belonging to congregations and stations under pastoral oversight was 93,487, which at the rate of 5)i to a household would represtut a population of 514,178, to which 10,0:'0 ^lingle persons have to be added, giving a total of 530,814, and the increase on each one of these was, families, 8,740 ; single persons 1,89' The number of Coninutnicants was 173,037, an increase of 8,081. Tlie number added on their own profession was 10,73.5, against 10,900 in the foregoing year, being a decrease of 2"25 and apparently showing that the Church has not been making the conquests from the world that she is expected to make— that the Kingdi.m of Christ is not making those inroads on the Kingdom of .Satan that might be euxpectod wlien there are such energies put forth, not merely 'oy the stated Ministry and Eldership, but by private Christians and .Sabbath .School Teachers ; and the additions on certificate, which art! noincrease to the puiiiior or power of the Church, were 7,351— an increase of 72. The agregate i-emovals by death, .370, andcertiKcate or other causes, 1,900, were 2,270; the former gone it may be hoped in all cases, —it must be believed in several cases, — from the services of the kingdom of grace on earth to those of the kingilom of glory in Heaven, and the latt?r to another field of activity and usefulness in the Master's ownership. Of 10,937 persons to whom Fiaptism was administered, 10,001 were infants, a decrease cf .50 on the preceding year ; and 870 wore adults, a decrease of 47. It need not be stated that in our Church the lluling Eldership is an important, a distincti\e and an essential element, called to bear part with nunisters in the oversight I'f the Hock of Christ which He hath purchased with His own bl) XIV.

There are lessons tn be learneil from the figures given and comparisons made, and the Presbyteries of tho Church should fuel themselves urged *•;) consider carefully tho foregoing Table Averages. On the stipenil i)aid by congregations alone the average rate \ov family h.is been SS.90, a de- crease (if 24 cents un the preceding year, and •'?4.81 per communicant, an increase of 10 cents. For all congregational objects tlie average ratfl per fa nily was .$17.68, a decrease of SI. 19, and per com- municant i$9.55, a decrease of 18 cents, The average rate of contribution per family for the Schemes of the Chuixih was .'?3,](1, a decrease of 22 cents, and per communicant of .'51.70, a clecrease of 3 cents. Fur ,vi,L purposes §21. 35 por family were cnary Associations, and \ '' ...on's Foreign Mifs'onniy Society. They were provided 5 manses and 1 rented house, and 1 ^;.urch and 1 manse were built during the year. In the 251 Stations in the Presbytery of Barrie, which has the largest mission field in the Church, and whicti, j.idgiDg from the returns, is diligently cultivated, there were 12,722 sittings ; 3,218 famil- ies, and 401 single i ersons. In these families and among 'hese single persons there were 7,798 com- municants, of whom 241 had been added on profession, and 127 on certificate. Removals by desvth numbered 25, and by certificate 145. Baptism was administered to 197 infants and 17 adults. In the Eldership there were 152, and of other office-bearers there were 359. Wcukly Prayer Meetings wero attended by 1,417 ; Sabbath Schools by 2,8.57, who were cared for by 381 teachers and superintendents. There are 9 Missionary Associations; 9 Woman's Foreign Missionary Societies, and 2 Woman's or Young People's Home Mission Societies. There were 4 manses and 3 rented houses provided, aiiil Churches were built during the year. ' In the Synod of Hamilton and London there were 10 Missi(m Stations in 2 Presbyteries, Hamil- ton and Chatham, furnishing 770 sittings for worshippers, from 143 families. It appears tliat thero were no single persons in these stations. Of the 208 communicants, 12 were added on profession, iiii'l 1 on certificate. The removals were 15, of whom 5 weio by death ; 7 infants and 2 adults were bap- tised. Altogeth?r there were 7 Elders, and 15 other office-bearers ; 105 attended the Weekly Prayer Meeting, and 202 the Sabbath School and Bible Class. No return has been made of the niiinber iir gaged in Sabbath School work, and apparently there is no Mis.sionary Association in any of th>' stations, no Woman's Foreign Missionary Society, or Home Mission Au.xiliary ; no manse or rtiiteii house, while 1 Church was built. In 1891 the Mission Stations in the Synod of Manitoba and thi North-West Territories were ic- ported separately, and numbered 292.

It embraces F.iculties of Arts, Medicine, and Law, as well as of Theology, but, at the time of the Union, the Kaciilties of Medicine and Law were in ahcvance. The manage- ment of the University rests with a 15o,ird of TruHtces. I'l'iar to Union, Queen's University was connected with the I'rosl)yterian Church of Canada in connection with the Cluir.h of .Scotland The trnstc:s, twenty-sev.m in number, of whom twelve must t)e ministers of the Presbyterian Church in (I'annda, and fifiecn laymen in full communion with tlv2 Church, were appointed by the Synod A certain number, both of ministers and laymen, retifed from the Board annually. In the appointment of their successors, the mit•i^■terial members were chosen by the Synod, in such manner as the Syno 1 might deter nine, and the l.wmen were chosen by the lay trustees from a list of church tn.-mljjrs n oniin.ited bv congregations of the Claurch. The Pnfessors and Lecturers in all the Facultic- ^^ere ajipointed bv the Board of Trustees. In the bisis of Union there w.is inserted the clause, " that the said United Church shall not be required to elect tru=:tces for any Arts department in Queen's College " The Bo.ud have therefore, since Union, elect -d their own successors, their r lunecti on with the Presbyterian Church being maiiitained iis formerly. In 1S80 legislation was secured, giving to the University Council of Queen's College the right to elect live of its members, not necessarily Presbyterian, to serve as Trustees, in addition to the original twcntv-seven. This action was approved of by the Assembly. The I5(iard of Trustees report annually to the Assembly. Since the Union, two appointments have been made of professors in the Theological Faculty, that of the Rev. Dr. (Jr.mt to be Principal and Pri)fessor of Systematic Theology in I'^TS, and that of the Rev. Dr. Ko-;'; to the chair of Nrw Testament Criticism and Apologetics in 188.'J, and these appointments were duly reported to the Assembly. M^NMTon.v Cor.r.BfjK embr,aces a Faculty of Arts as well as of Tlieology. It is united with other Colleges in a Provincial University, but is under the direct control of the Assembly, by wh»m the Board of .Management of the College is annuillv appointed. The Senate consists of the Professors, together with three members of the Board of .Management nominated annually by the Board. Prior to Union it had no Theological Faculty. In 1883, the Assembly appointed Rev. Dr. King to be Principal and Professor of Theology. The Board of Managoment present annual reports to the Assembly, regarding both the Literary and Tiieologicp.l Departments. In 18'fi the Assembly tjranted jiermission to the Board to secure the services of a iccturer, and, in accordance with this permission, the Rev. ,)ames Farquharson was appointed to give assistance in the j)hilosophical and theological classes. Subsequently, the Rev. A. B. Baird was appointed lecturer in Philosophy and German. Other lecturers have been appointed by the College authorities, both in the Literary and Theological Departments, and approved of by the Assemblv. In 1891 the General Assembly, in accordance with the reque,-t of the Senate and Board of Management, appointed Rev. A. B. Baird, B.I). Professor of Hebrew, Apologetics and Church History. From these statements it will be seen that there is not uniformity of control on the part of the Church toward the Colleges. Knox College, Toronto, the Presbyterian College, Montreal, and Manitoba College, are under the immediate control of the Assembly, their Boards of Management as well as their professors being appointed by the Asseutbly. The Presbyterian College, Halifax, i» also under the immediate control of the Assembly, as the Board of Managers and professors are appointed by the Assembly, but on several occasions the Assembly has entrusted a measure of control in the affairs of the College to the Synod of the Maritime Provinces. In the case of Queen's University.it was decided in the negotiations for Union, that the United Church should not be required to appoint trustees for the Arts department, and it was deerned impracticable to have two sets of trustees, one for the Literary and the other for the Theological department, so that the relation of the College to the Church is not as close as was its relation to the Presbyterian Church of Canada in connection with the Church of Scotland prior to Union. The professors in the Theological Faculty, however, must be ministers of the Tresbyterian Church in Canada. .itki Appendix No. 28.

To do this would, of course, require special legislation, and your Com- mittee are of the opinion that the Board of Trustees of Queen's University should be requested to con--i'ler the advisability of taking action in this direction. Similar comment mi.{ht be made in regard to the relations of Morrin College to the Church, alth )ugh no special reference was made in the Basis of Union to any appointment by the Church of the Governors of Morrin. Without any change in die mode of appointing the Board of Gov- ern )rs, the control of the Theological statf would be secured to the Assembly if legislation were obtained, vesting in the Assembly the right of appointiiig professors upon the nomination of tliem bv ihe B )ard of Governors. Your Committee would suggest that the Board of Governors of Morrin (-o'.leu;e be requested to consider the advisability o' securing in this way the closer relation of tie Colleac to the Church. There has not been, since Union, any app lintnunt made to a ch lir in any of our Colleges upon nominations liy Presbvterics. This method, though still foMowed in the Colleges of the I'resby- terian ('hurches of Great Britain and Ireland, except in those connected with the Established Church of Scotland, is not foliow-'d in any of the College-! of the Presbyterian Church in the United States. Although adopted in some cases prior to Union, it seems by general consent to have been abiuJoned in th- United Church, Li tlu- ippointm-nt of Professors in Queen's and Morrin the ap.iointm ;nts hive boon mad • by the Board ef Trustees and Board of Governors and rep >rted to the Assembly. In the election of the Princip.al of Manitoba College the appoint- ment was male directly bv the Assemb'y. In every other election of a theological protessor since Union thj ('jllege B Jinl lU id ! th* nominition ail the Assembly appointed the nominee of the Board. In the opinion ot your Committee the practice which thus appears to have commended itself to the Church tnight safely be adopted as the regular mode of appointment of Professors in all the Theological CoiV\^cs On the one hand it reci)L,Mii/;es thit the Board of Management should be intinately ac-ii; lin'ed with th,; requirements o.' the CoHe^'e antl capable of selecting the most suit- able person to li I a vacancy, and, on th; other h ind, it recognizes that th:; appointment of Theolog- ical Professors should lie under the supervision and control of the Church. In regard to the relations of the College at Halifax to the Church ,- as that College has hith- erto held ai intimate connection with the Synod of the .M,iritinie Provinces, it might be an appro- pri,ite recognition of that connection if the Bjarl of .Management, though appointed by the Assembly, were no nin ited by ihe Synod, and the Boird were then empowered to nominate Pro- fessors for appointment by the General Assembly. Your Committee wou'd accordingly recom iiend, that in the appointment of Professors in the I'resbyteriin College, Ilalil'ax, The Presbyteri.iu College, Montreal, Knox College, Toronto, and Manitoba College, the respective Boards of Management of those Colleges shall nominate such Professors and the app liiitment shall be made by tlie (General AssemMy : That the Board of Trustees of Queen's University and the Board of Governors of Morrin College be requested to c.)nsidcr the advisability of procuring such legislation as shall give to the General Assembly the right of appointment of tlie Theological Professors in those (colleges upon nomination by the Board of Trustees or Board of Governors ; That when nomination to a vacant clnir in any of the Colleges has been made in the manner herein recommended and the Assembly disapproves of such nomination, the Assembly shall then adopt such a mode ot making th" aiipointment as it may deem most suitable ; And that the Board of Man.agement of the Presbyterian College, Halifax, be nominated by the Synod of the Maritime Provinces for ap;)ointment by the General Assembly. Respectfully submitted on behalf of the Committee, DANIEL M. GORDON, Convtnei- of Committee, APPENDIX No. 29. REPORT ON TEMPERANCE. To the Venerabln the Ocncral Anaembty : — Your Committee on Temperance beg leave to present the following Report : I. Re(iakliin(; the "Royal Commission on thk Liquoii Traffic." 1. Resolution 3 of the Report on Temperance, adopted by the last General Assembly (Minutes, page 40), instructed " its Committee on Temperance to urge upon the (iovernment the vigorous prosecution of the work of that Commission, so that its report may be presented at Rtiy < arly stage of tlie Session of 1893, that there may be time for dealing with the great (luestion of prohibition, fairly and fully, without any unnecessary delay" Your Comiidttee did us instrui ted. A full and courteous reply was received from the Hon. Minister of Finance, in the course of which he said ; " Some delay did arise, it is true, in the appointment of the Commission, but since its appointment it has been at work as steadily and as consecutively as seemed possible, and (|uite as much so as commissions of the like nature which have b^en appointed from time to time. The work which they have undertaken, and in which they have been guided by the scope of the Commission, untrammelled by the Government, is no light one ; and their desire liiis coincided with that of the Government, and of the public, viz : that this work should l>e as thorough end comprehensive as possible. I don't think it would have been wise in the interests of the subject they had in hand to have curtailed or hastened their ebquiry to the detriment of its comprehensiveness by the desire of having it a few months earlier than it could otherwise be got so soon as this (their report) is received it wi 1 be printed and distributed with the evidence upon which it is liased, if that be possible, before the next session, and niemheis and the public will have it iri their possession so as to muster it before parliament is called together. lu this matter, if haste were incompatible with thoroughness, it is better on all hands that we should w«it a little longer and get a more thorough report." 2. Resolution 4. adopted by last Assembly, (Minutes, page' 39) appointed a Special Committee, consisting of the Moderator, the Clerks, Dr. Campbell (Renfrew), and your Con- vener, (1). " To prepare and issue to all congiegations a circular explaining the requiiementa of the case, and asking that a contribution be sent to Dr. Reid. if possible, before the 15th of July next." And (2). "In conuection with the Temperance Committee, either to secure a separate presentation of tht! case on behalf of this Assembly, or, if found more advisaVile, then to co-opurate with other orgaiiixationa in presenting the case befoie the Royal Commission." A c'roulii lis accordingly issued to all congregations immediately after the close of last Assembly, anti in response Dr. Reid received, and acknowledged in the " Record," contribu- tions amounting to $924.81. After due consideration, and consultation with Dr. .1. J. McLaren, Q. C, Toronto, Chairman of the Executive C,(K)0, of which 18,0.'}7 were or Prohibition and 7,115 ugainst, having a (dear majority of \l,r>'2'2, or nearly three to one. .n nearly every locality, including large towns and cities, the prohibition majorities were marked. In the city of Winnipeg '2,"8!t were for, to l,47()nnti, or decide'J8 for to l,")!t ; at Lansdowne, 78H to "JIO: at .Manitou, 'ilO to 18(i ; at Mianedosa, .")'_'8 to "247 ; at .Morris, rt'2'2 to 22.5; at Portage la Prairie, 710 to i88; at Kockwood. ")()(! to 171 ; at Saskalcliewaii, .V_'7 to 185 ; at Souris, 412 to LSI ; at Turtle Mountain, 66.'1 to 17(i, and at .South Hran(h>n, .')42 to 171. These majorities were much larger, in nearly every case, than were given for the M.P.P.'s elected, and would have been considered sweepingly decisive in a political i)arty election. Prince Kdward Island is to have a popular vote on the <|ni'.stion of Pn.hibition at the approaching provincial election, and tlie Island Presbytery IooUm for good results. In the legislature of Ontario what is known as " .Marter's Hil' '" wis introduce ' on the (Itli of April. Tliis bill provided for the prohibition, within the jiroviiicc, of all sile of ii.'oxicating liquors BY KETAll, after 4th .May, 18!t4, and the repeal of all provisionn of the Lii/iior Liri use. Act inconsistent with such j)roliibition. 'i'he (iovernnient opposcil thf bill, which was defeated. The Government then introiluced a Bill in favor of a ))lebisciti', and the (niestion to bi^ snb- niitted is, "Are you in favor of the imnicdiite prohibition by law of the importiilion, manufacture, and sale of intoxicating licpiors as a bevei'age?" Hfsidcs, all jjcrsons on the pio- vincial lists, all widows and unmarried women on the municipal lists, will be entitled to vote, and a return is to be made of the votes cast by eael. sex. Seeing that neither the Manitoba (iovernment nor Legislature has taken any a^'tion since the vote last summer, the (juestion arises. — What is to be llie practical outcome of this rapiclly extending movement ? \ow, however, that the movement is well under «!iy it falls to the part of all temperance people to lay aside all difl'erences of opinion as to the wisiloni of a plebiscite, and to vement in the return.s received from .Sessions. In the I'resbyteries of Pictou, Maitlan I, Whitby, all the Sessions reported. Only one was lacking in each of the Presbyteries of .Siingeon, I'aiis, Sydney, oidy two each in Lindsay, Huron, Sarnia, Inverness, Trnro, (iuel])h, and oidy three or four each in several others. All the Presbyteries in the Uoniinion reported excepting Wallace, whose con- ve!ier removed to another Presbytery in March, and Orangevillc, on account of the convener's illness, and all the Synods received and disposed of reports at their l»st meetings. \ow that we have all our Synods and Presbyteries giving careful consideiation to their reports on Tem- perance, we trust it will not be long until every Session will go and do likewise. The number that failed last year was comparati»ely small, and some of them were without pastors. The total nundier that reported was about six hundred and fifty, to which several nussion stations have to be added. From all these widely scattered sources, from all parts of the Country, and representing all cl&xses of the people, your Committee has gathered information by means of questions sent out by order of the last Assembly. From this and otlu^r information receiTcd from the educational authorities in all the Provinces and the North-West Territories, the following summary is compiled with due regard to clearness and brevity. Question 1. Has the Plan of Organization, for Temperance work in the Church, recom- mended by the last (ieneral Assembly been adopted in your congregation ? If adopted, what has been done, and with what results? If not adopted, what Temperance work has been done in your Church during the year ? This plan for doing more effective Temperance T\-ork within the Chnr !i has met with an encouraging reception. It was not expected that > large nund)er could -eport its adoption luring last year. iSome time passed before the pledge books, cards am. constitutions were ready ; and then from lack of funds, a general distribution of samples and circulars explain- ing the work could not be undertaken, but a letter regarding it appeared in the .September "Record." A good beginning was the result. During the present year, letters, which bore much good fruit, were published by your Convener in the January und April issues of ^ ''Record." The work hiu been taken up principally by Sabbath Schools and Chrisi.. Ai'PKNDix No. 29. Ill ,artc(l hist ycur in 3 of whiit Ima been .eiiiunt of the vote •e or l'roliil)ition . n nearly every rkeil.

Endeavor Societies, and its nxtension baa been as rapid and wide as was anticipated. Under all the circumstances the results are fully satisfiietory. They show that theie was need of such an org(.ni/.ation, and that this one is well-titted to siip])1y the nc(Ml, and till an important place in the work of our Church, in promoting the interests of Temperance, especially among the children and young people, larj;e numbers of whom have signed our pledge. Statements in some of the Reports S4'em to call for a few explanatory remarks, (1) This Plan of Work is not intended as a substitute foi' other etlecfive inethoils, or Temperance iSocieties. Where there ar« Hands of lloiie, or other juvenile socictii s fully oecnpyin<; the ground and doing the needed work, it is not necessary to re ori;ani/e oi\ this plan.

(2). The objection that it is mu!ti|)lying societies ii' the Chinch and adding unduly to our machinery does not apply. The whole plan has been ai ranged so as to overcome this objection, and yet to do tlie woik desired. It is not a miritli/ ,• t» is mil a separate oigiinization ; it aims at using existing organiz.itions with tlio least jmssiMe additional m,ichin( ry, and its main object is to secure the |iledgin^ of the youii,', ';d to ilo this in t'uniicction with their Christian instruction and life, so that Tempei.uu',; iiiiiy bi' more fully recngni/td as a part of Chiistian life and Church work. In the Chrisfian Kndeavor Society piiivisiun is uiade by its own comditution for a Com- mittee on Temin rami'. All our plan iIik's is to pros ide woik and diucli^ms for such Committee, and sup[ily it \\'n\] pied'.;" ImkiUs ami pledi;e cards. In the Sabbath School all that 1.-. niH ded is the a|ip'ihitincMt of a ( 'I'lamittee to do the little work reipiircd of it.

The evils of intoxicating drinks were laid bi fore the chililnii and young [i.-ople.

We want to have it done, and piovided it s done well, we are not particular as to the methods cmployi'd. Local circninstances must necessarily have much to do in deciding the (|uestion of methods ; still we would like to see some part of the Assembly's plan adopted where possible, so th.it our temperance work may be brought into closer touch with the life of the church. (4.) Congregations within whose bounds no intoxicating liipiors are sold, and where the teniperftnce sentiment is strotw, must carefully guard against the mistaken idea evidently entertained in some places that they "do not reipiire special organizations." With thu report from the Presbytery of Winnipeg we say, t'oat uidess the young people of these cougre- f S iv Appendix No. 29. i\ Ir* hi giitioiia lie ahviiys kept vithin the bouniU we think tlio rcaflons Riven are far from heing a Butticient juittiHcatiiiii for audi iniiotion. In siicii oircumstancea tliero ia, we believe, Hpcoial need if faithful, well organi/.e'l teinporance work, so that when the young people grow up an.! go out, as most of them will, into the world where many and deceptive temptations to drink abound, they may, by being well taught and trained in the principles and practice of Total Abstinence, be able to intelligently meet, and successfully resist, such temptations. We are not yet out of reach of this terrible enemy, and none can safely lay his armor down. The answers to the second part rf this (jnestion show that the preaching of the Gospel is kept well to the front as the most elTective means of overcoming all evil, and that "earnest Tempi' ranee sermons " are growing more fre(juent and ett'octive. The teaching of the Quarterly Ten pijiance Lesson in the Sabbath schools is also becoming more general, and the pledge book is being more widely used with good results. Many Christian Kndeavor Societies are active in temperance work and are suid to be doing much good. I..<'ctures and literature hold their well ei "ned places among the best agencies. The public press is recognized, and the I'rtsbytery of (Quebec makes special mention of the Montreal iVitnt:rally rccojini/.cd that when the tide of Temperance sentiment muI practice im cover tlie wliolo wcok '!

Decreased sales are very generally noted, altiiough there are few rresbyteries in which some .sessions lire not uom])elled to report an increase. A considcable number ar«f doubtful, while the statements made by ditrerent sessions in the same town or i;ity are conllicting. The establishment of a brewery in Manchester, in the Presbytery of Huion. is said to have increaseil the local consuinption of lager beer. " Young men and habitual drink^'i-s " ar.' said by some Sessions in Paris I'rtsbytery to be " drinking more." \Vln;re licen-ts exist, decrease is donblfu'. The report from the Synod of Hamilton and London slates, on the authority of th» Provincial Treasurer of Ontario, that the amount received from lici'iise fees in tliat proi i'-ce has fallen ofT 817, OOO.OO since 1890, owing to the reduction in the number of licenses, which were n nety-nine (00) less in 1802 than they were in ISOl.

A ilecrease is ohscrved in a few localities, while ot^iers noted either no ileirease, or an increase, as at Allicrni. S. NoRTiiWrsT Ti'.KRiTouiKs.— Within tho Presliytery of Calgary, Davislnirg is the only placiMihle to report that the sale hug entirely ccasc'd. Tlio sale is said to have greatly increiised on account of tlie grant iiig of licenses. U'ithlhis statcmi'iit the i'reshytery of Kegina fully agret^s. The new license law is cliargcd with licliig nmdo in the interests of tho li()Uor dealers, and thrust iiiion the people without allowing tiicm to have a voice against it. One session juits it thus, " During the year the Covennnciit has said to tiie devil, 'Uo respectably and gather your harvest from thvHv territoiics, atid who can hinder you ? ' " (JiKSTloN 4. — Whut, in your opinion, have heen the causes that have hindered the strict enforcement, in your enmniunity, of TemperHiicc- legislation during the last three years? The answers that have heen rijccived in reply to this ipiestion are hewildoring. It is so easy to Hnil f«ult, that the opening of this little gate has Irt in llood einuigh tn almost over- whelm your conven>'r, who has liceii compelled ti) wade through it. One cannot hut admire the vitality and stahility of the Temperance cause, tliiit in the face of such a torrent lias not only stood its ground. Imt ha« steadily stcimncd tlu' King tide, anil is getting dai'y nearer tlie flood gate, which it must ere long close up, and tin n, well, our duty is not to prophesy, but I'l report. Tho remark comes fioni one part that they have a license law, but do not regard it as I'emperaiiee legislation at ail. From almost every (piarter I'oines the statetnent that strict eiifm-ceinent has been hindered by defects in the law ; lack of enforcing machinery, niiceitainty of its provisions, opportunities it aU'ords for legal quibbles and tcchuical objections, want of money — except from private sources -for ,)rosecutioii, and the long and costly appeals, and delays in the higher courts. A stroiiy temperance sentiment has in m:iny places taken hold of the law to enforce it with entliusiasni, l)ut after months, and even yeirs, of contending aL'ainst a strong, determined tratlic, at great pcr.sonal sicrilice, loss of time and money, and even imprisonment, and then failure, it is little wonder entliusiiism conlod, and people feared to risk so much when they felt that the hnrilen should hf home hy the state.

From the North-west may he noted in addition, — Opposi- tion and had fxample of the executive authority ; mounted police in league with the tratlic and the license laws; "Ami prohibition sentiment, onti-prohihition police force, anti-prohihition influence flowing from miii-prohihition executives ai Kegina and Ottawa."

QuKSTioK 5. — Do you favor the enactment of a prohibitory liquor law at an early date f Please give reaxona for your answers We have three classes of answers to this question. A few say " No " ; a slightly larger namber make their no or yes depend on conditions ; while an overwhelming majority of not less 3' i ! .:f. ^ ^'- I via Appexdix No. 29, qhan ninety-five per cent, of iieHsions repoitinc: cay " Yes." Abont half of the Presbyteries report ni''. .imously in favor of Prohibition, while in others the unanimity is broken only by the voice of one or two, or, as in a few caiies, by three or four sessions. Within the Synod of M(>ntreal and Ottawa there was only one fmphatic negative among all the answers received ; and in that of Toronto and Kingston only four ans- ;ered " No." One each in the Presbyteries of Toronto and Kingston, and two in that of Gnelph. The feeble voice thus raised againut Prohibition is scarcely more than enough to break the monotonous murmnr of the multitudinous "Yes" that comes from all parts of the land, well hacked by many and weighty nasons. That the minority may have the benefit of all the strength it clsims for its position, we give n full summary of the reasons stated in support of both the negative and ((ualificd replies Only a little more than half a score of sessions are reported as giving a decided " No." The rensons given are : — The non-enforcement of prohibiiior educates the community in contempt of law ; the difficulty of enforcement ; doubtful of any beneficial moral rt nits ; the country is not prepared for a Prohibitory law. One Sesi^ion in the Prfsbytery of Toronto says it ban not yet reached the point when it can see that Prohibition is according to the law of God. It is sufficient to supplement this brief summary with the elaborate statement transmitted by the report of Presbytery of Montreal. We give it in full : First, — Temperance is no sin agnins; God, and so cannot be a ''rime against society. Intem- perance is a sin against Gcxl, also a crime against society, and as such is followed by its wretched consequences. With these facts recognized, prohibition implies that laws lor the prevention of crime must not only be made to cover the evil doer, but must be made wide enough to limit and coerce the action of the good. There is hero no moral ground whatever for prohibition to stand on. Secondly, — If it be asserted that prohibition in its aim is remedial to do good, to save from the elTects of intemp'rance, the wretchedness, ^\>-^ misery and the sorrow, yet it cannot be denied that it lays its hand ou the temperate, and comjipls him to forego by the letter of the law, rights and privileges which the cry of the afflicted onglit to lead'hitn to forego ii) the spirit of self renunciHtion. Caiaphas declared in the Sanhedrim, " It u expedient for us that one man should die for the people and that the whole nation perish not," and so the civil and religious rulers from that day forth sought to put Jesus to death. They did compass Jesus' death, but that did not save the nation ; because as far as they were concerned, they robbed the sacrifice of the only elements in it that had power to save the freedom and the vnhiniurincss of the victim. I do not charge the promoters of prohibition with scckinc to sacrifice the temperate, but innsmnch as the law itself does lay its hand on them and that too on no other ground than if the salvation sought by the law is to be effected, they the temperate must so suffer. I confess the analogy is so striking that one might safely predict the failure of the aim should the law be passed at an early date. Believing that the total al)stinence movement has saved in the past, believing that the salvation effected has been through voluntaiy sell-sacrifice, believing that further salvation not only can, but it is to be wrought out in the same way, and that if it is slow, at least it is on the line of truth, justice, guodneas, and promise, I cannot favor this law which makes it an impossibility to say, and I use thp words with all reverence, seeing in them alono the power and the love which can give value to anv sacrifice : " No man tnkoth it frotn me ; I lay it down of m\ self ; I have power to lay it down and power to take it agaiu." There are other reasons equally cogent, and arguments strong enough to outweigh objections which may be taken. Let us now look at the conditioned replies. They do not number much over a score. One session was divided ; one was willing to leave it to the people ; one said, " Yes, for the conaregaiion, for we could enforce it, hut for the county, no, for we do not believe the sentiment of the county strong enough to enforc it." It depends on the kind of law ; Yes, if the government is willing to provide means of enforcement, as for other laws; not at prenent, »!o no^ see the probability ot its enforcement. If failure would follow enactment, it would be detrimental to the temperance cause. We must first weaken party bonds bv wise, moderate legislation. One wants more ligiit; another avors the Norway system ; while still another wants high license, because less lawle,rs were asked : " What importance do you attooh to the teaching of Temperance in Schools? (a) A.°. now taugJit? {h) If taught afv*r your ideal?" Their repliet are summed up thus : " We con- sider it of vitil importance to the we'fare of the nation, looking at it either from a moral or physical point <»f view. A* it is now taught? Sime jjood will result. The text book teaolips the physic il, not the moral side. If taugho after our ideal ? There are difficulties in the way. No suitable text books, no incentive. Livk of literature, etc " As to their estimate, educa- tionally, of the licjuor traffic, they say "The effects of the liquor tratfic where it prevails as compared with where it dow not prevail, are : that parents lose interest in the welfare of their children, while children are irregular in their attendance, and poorly provided wilh text books. The effects are baneful in many ways, never an advantige." In the whole province there are seventy Protestant academies and model schools, with 6,500 pupils, and the Inspector says, " More attention could not be given to the subject in the schools." From the Superintendent of E hication we learn that the teaching of hygiene is now com- pulsory in the Roman Catholic schools of the province, and three different text books, jiarts of which treat, of alcoholic beverages, are provided for teachers. The pupils are not obliged to have the text booKS, but they must receive oral instruction on these subjects. v.— OsT.\Rio.— The regulations of the Educ.tional Depurtmcnt re(iuire that " Th nature and effects of alcohol on the system, and the importance of temperance, and a strict observance of the la«8 of health, should form part of the regii ar instructions of the school, and at least one hour a week should be devoted to this subject." Though this subject has due value at examinations for entrance to the High Schools, it is left optional, which, it is said, acts against its being vigorously taught. Teachers in training in the Provincial Normal School are required to pass examination on Temperance and Hygiene. The Minister of Education says: "You will {|uite understand that in8tructi'>n of this kind even though oliligato'y, depends for its enforcement to a certain ext' nt hoth upon Inspectors and Teachers. We may hare in many cases only a literal compliance w itli the Act in so far at the stuily of the subject is concerned, but I have reason to believe, however, that in many parts of the country the subject is taught with tolerable enthusiasm, and 1 hope with beneficial results." The following fiaures are furnished to show the numbers of pupils receiving such instruction since the introduction of the Text Hook in 1887 :— 1887—80,103 ; 1888- 141. r),0.53; 1890-140,287 1891-138,466; but the Presbytery of Kingston says that the numbers reported as receiving instruction in Temperance is far in excess of those who are effectively and thoroughly taught. The Text Book in use since 1887 is Dr. Richardson's " Lessons ou Alcohol" (Oot. Ed.), but the Minister of Education siiys : " 1 hope, however, to introduce next year, at the latest, a new book bette'- adapted to public school children anl ca'ciilated from its style and illua'rations to interest fhem in the subject of Temperance. .... I hope to improve the study very much.'' He assures us that the Assembly's sug- gestions regarding the moral side of the subject shall receive the fullest possible considera- tion. The Presbytery of Maitland has assurance from all School Inspectors within its bounds that they desire to see the Assembly's recommendations, " that a manual on Tempeiance be systen atically used in all their schools," carried out, and they promised to gi'. e the matter :.;: u Appendix No. 29. Xltl their attention. Hygiene iind Temperance are taught in all the schools of North andSouth Hastings, and in most of the others within the bounds of the Presbytery of K ngston. The prescribed text book is not much used, excepting in Piince Edwaid county, and then in only sixty out of eighty schools, " Hygiene for Young People " being substituted in many places. yi.— Manitoba.— The Chief Clerk of Education for Manitoba informs us that instruction on Temperance wps authorized by the Advisory Board for this Province on .September Ist, 1891, and- the teaching of this subject is compulsory, being placed on the same footing as the teaching of Arithmetic ; and thnt it is taught in every standard of the Public .Schools. The Text Books used are of the " Pathfinder Series," Nog. 1 and 2. VIL-Bkitlsh Columbia.— From replies of Dr. Pope, .Superintendent of Education, to enquiiiesfrom your Convener, and from Rev. John A. McUonaUi, Convener of Committee on Temperance of Presbytery of Vancouver Island, we learn that under the re/'ilations of the Council of Public Instruction the teaching of Anatomy, Physiology and Hygiene in all the Public and High Schools of British Columbia is compulsory ; but the giving of instruction in the spt-cial subject of Temperance is optional. The Text Books used are : Cutter's 1st and 2nd Books on Anatomy Physiology and Hygiene ; Dr. Richardson's Public School Temperance ; and Pathfinder Physiology, Nos. 1. and 2 ; and the Manual of Hytiene, by the Ontario Pro- vincial Board of (iealth, is recommended for teacheis. During last year there were 10,773 pupils enrolled in the Public Schools, 4,198 being in the primary classes. The average daily attendance was 6,227. Of this number, 2,784 studied Anatomy, Physiology, and Hygiene, and 1,0.31 received instruction in the special subject of Temperance. Iho numoer who received such instruction in the Graded and High Schools were respectively, 465 of 6,636 enrolled, and 88 of ,112. We therefore find that of the 17,721 pupils enrolled in all the Public, Gradrd, and High Schools of British Columbia, only 1 ,62,j were taught in the special branch of Temperance. Where sucii teucliing is optional, and even where it is compulsory, very much depends on the personal interest of the teacher in the subject. One teacher may give such instruction mort effectively, while another, under the same regalatior.s and with equal opportunities, may do nothing. In his letter to Mr. McDonald, Dr. I'ope says : "Allow me to sav, that ic is difficult to understaud how a te«cher can properly impart instruction in Physiology and Hygiene, without specially referring 1o the evil effects of stimulants and narcotics on the liuniau system. The teacher who is willing and anxious to impress upon his pupils the wisdom of obe-'ing the teacliings of Temperance, will find ample opi>ortunity to do so in the lessons which he gives daily in I'hysiology and Hygiene. In the course of si«dy prescribed, special instruction is given to teachers not to overlook this importttnt branch subject of Hygiene." He also adds ; " From personal observations, as well us from reports of inspectors and tea^-hers, I am in a position to state, that the teaching of Physiology and Hygiene in the Public Schools receives careful attention, and I have reason to believe that the teachers as a body, tlo not neglect to give instructions in the subject of Temperance. " VIII.— North- \V K.ST Teriutorik.s. — In July, 1891, the Board of Education for the Territories ha I before it a memorial from the North-VVest Branch of the Dominion Alliance, asking the Board to place on the list of Text Books, a .Manual on Temperance, and that the teachers in the Tetritories be re(|uired to pas^ an examination on the subject of Temperance before obtaining certificates. By a resolution of the Board then passed, the Secretary was " directed to state that the subject is already dealt with in the programme of studies for the schools of the Territories, under the iicada of ' Physiology and Hygiene ' and 'Ethics ' ; and that the Board does not see its way to comply with the request contained in the memorial with regard to teachers, as this wouhl add to the curriculum of subjects at present required of our teachers at the annuv.l axaminations." " As the subject, however, may not be treated with suflficient fulness in the books hereto- fore authorized, the Board has placed on the list of books, recommended for the use of teachers, ' The Temperance Teachings of Science,'" by A. B. Palmer, M. D., Ll.D., (J. & A. McMillan, St. John, N. B.). No change! have been made since the above date. The reports of Presbyteries, while not giving detailed information, shows that something is being done in the way of having the subject more generally taught in the sciiools. IvKSOLlTIONS. 1.

Thnt tlii.s Assembly is grateful to (";o(l for the evidence furnished by the report, that there is a tteady growth of Temperance sentiment and practice throughout the Church, and that tiiere is a continue 1 and vigorous use of the most approved means for further promotinjj thatgrowtli, and for overcoming the evils of strong drink; — and urges ministers, elders, and other temperance workers in the Church, to continue their efforts with unabated zeal, so that as soon as possible, our land may be freed from the blighting influence of the liquor tratfic. 2. That this Assembly is pleased to learn that the Plan of Organization, approved and recommended last year, for doing more effective Temperance work within the Church, has met xlv Appendix No. 29. 'ii ■;l with an encouraging reception in the .Sabbath Schools and Christian Entleavor Societies, in connection with which large numbers have signed the pledge ; — and further recommends that Plan of Work, especially to those who are interested in educating our children end young people in the principles and practice of Total Abstinence. ■S. That this Assembly having learned with satisfaction, that not less than ninety-five per cent, of the Sessions reporting, favour the enactment of a Prohibitory liquor law at an early date, and thtt there is a steadily growing popular Prohibition seotiment throughout the country, reathrins the resolution of last Assembly recording " its unqualitied condemnation of the saloon, or dram shop, as a centre of most degrading influences, and a source of great danger to the Church and country, and its conviction that the license system has been proved inautii- cicnt to I'flcctuaily remove the terrible evils of the drink tratiic, and that, so far us legislation is concerned, nothing short of Prohibition, rigidly enforced by the proper authorities, should ever be accepted as final, or satisfactory." At the same time this Assendily expresses regret that the Legislators of the country have so long delayed the enactment of a law prohibiting tho importation, manufacture, and sale of all intoxicating licptors as a beverage, and earnestly reiiucsts the .said legislators to secure the enactment and strict enforcement of such a Prolii: bitory Law at the earliest pos ible date ; and this Assembly assures such legislators of its hearty support in any such action. And furthi'v, this .Assembly instructs the convener of its Committee on Temperance to forward duly ceitified copies of this resolution to the Covernments of the Dominion, aud of tho several provii;ces, and the North- West Territories. 4. That this Assembly approves of the action, as stated in Section 1 of the report, of tho Special (\>n)iiiittee aj)i)oinie(l Inst year to act in connection with the Ommittee on Temperance, with rt'gar.l to tiie " Uoyal Commission on the Liquor Traffic," and re-appoint the said Com- mittee coiisistin;,' of the Mo ; and trusts that those specially interested will earnestly endeavor to mako this iinpoitant department of Temperance work thoroughly efficient; and that, to this end, Tem- p. raiioc l)f put on the same footing on the curriculuin ; s other subjects ; and that in tho proposed Temperance text book for Ontario, an8 12,116 36 10,439 27 Auement.ition Fund 8,949 68 8,738 67 ■,983 68 College Fund 11,.5I6 64 16,338 81 16,072 73 Bursarv Fund ■ 1,17107 844 2.-1 912 89 Aged Ministers Fund 3,084 84 3,509 31 3,995^ $64,804 0;5 S63,805 08 $65,652 41 The Agent's accounts have been carefully audited and found correct.
