Hay, Enq., to the Hon. J. K. Stewart, dated Downing Street,'23d April, 1834. Sir, In reference to two letters from the Under Secretary of State for this Department, dated respectively the 2l8t November, 1831 , and 18th January, 1832, proposing to relieve the Parliamentary Estimates from very extensive charges for the support of the Church and the promotion of education in the North American Colonies, I am directed by Mr. Secretary Stanley to acquaint you, for the information of the Lords Commissioners of the Trea- sury, that he fears it will be unavoidable to apply to Parliament for the continuance of a vote, to the amount of £4,000, which, at the date of the above-mentioned communication, it was hoped might cease without incon- venience after the present year. In conveying to you this opinion, I am desired by Mr. Stanley to recapitulate the circumstances on which it is founded ; merely observing in the outset, that the object in view is not to increase the clergy estimate from the amount to which, by gradual diminu- tions, it has already been reduced, but only to render the further reduction of £4,000, which, under the present arrangement, is to take place next year, contingent upon the termination of existing interests. Until the year 1832, payments had been made to the clergy out of the army extraordinaries, and out of the grants on various colonial estimates, to the amount of £9,500 ; but in the year 1832 all these payments were collected into one distinct estimate, styled the North American Clergy Estimate ; and it was intimated that, on the death of the individuals holding the benefices or offices for whicli application was then made to Parliament, no grant would be asked for their successors. In the reduction eft'ected by this measure, provision was made, it will be observed, for the persons actually in employment in the Colonies. At the same time it was proposed, that whereas, previously, a grant of £10,000 had been voted annually to the Society for the Propagation of the Gospel, the grant in the year 1832 should be limited to £12,000, and that in every following year it should be reduced by a diminution of £4,000 until it should cease. In the abolition of this latter grant, no provision was made, as in the other case, for the parties actually in employment in the Colonies. In consequence of the withdrawal of the aid heretofore received from Parliament, the Society for the Propagation of the Gospel appears to have found it impossible to maintain its former establishments ; and it announced last year that in Upper Canada, where Government had been able to provide an annual payment of £100 to each missionary at present employed, the present average being £200, the allowances of the Society to its mission- aries would be discontinued after the year 1834, and that in all the other North American Colonies they would be reduced by one-half after the year 1835. The communication of the Society to the Bishops of Quebec and Nova Scotia, embodying these determinations, accompanies this letter. The intelligence of the measures above described appears to have excited much alarm and disappointment in the Colonies, both among the mission- aries and among the congregations committed to their care. On behalf of the missionaries, Mr. Stanley has been called upon, by various and earnest appeals tu him, to consider the hardship of depriving these ministers of the salaries which were offered to their acceptance when they were induced to quit their homes for their present distant employment. On behalf of the congregations (many of them the inhabitants of remote and thinly-peopled settlements) his attention has been directed to their poverty ; and to the extreme difficulty which they must experience in finding a suitable mainte- nance for a minister, after providing, as they are at any late required to <'i), for the erection and repairs of a church, and for the building of a parsonage- house. One parish in the province of New Brunswick is at this moment severely pressed by a debt which it has been obliged to contract in execu- tion of the latter purposes. On a review of all the representations which I>.ive reached him, Mr. Stanley cannot but regard it as njuch to be lamented, that the missionaries should not receive the emoluments of which the expec- tation was held out to them when they proceeded to the Colonies. The principle of protecting persons actually in employment from loss was sanctioned by Puiliament in the case of the rest of the North America>i clergy ; and although there are unfortunately not the means of carrying this rule fully into effect in the case of the missionaries, Mr. Stanley feels the justice of acting upon it so far as circumstances will permit. Such being the conclusion at ^vhich he has arrived, it remains to describe the manner in which he would endeavour to carry it into execution. In order more clearly to explain his views, a comparative statement hiis been prepared, which is hereto aimexed, shewing the funds which were ajtpro- priated to the payment of the missionaries in 1832 (the latest year for wiiich complete accounts could be rendered) and the funds which it is proposed to apjtiy to the same use hereafter. The payments made by the Society for the Propagation of the Gosjwl in 1832 amounted to £22,294 ; but as £12,000 was granted to the Society by Parliament in that year, the sum actually drawn from its own resources was £10,294. Tlie Society has declared that it is willing to continue to bear an .jwiMliture to that amount. Now, it will be seen from the state- ment U) which I have alluded, that, if the Society were relieved from all charge on account of the missionaries in Upper C;iiiada and Nova Scotia, and if it were not called \i\kiu for a larger payment than £3,800 in New Brunswick, the entire (f iianil upon it fur maintuining the present esta- blishments in North America would fall within the prescribed limit of £10,294. The question for consii'eration is, whether the Government can undertake to afford the required relief in the Colonies above mentioned. Mr. Stanley is constrained to acknowledge that, considering the limited moans at its disposal, the Government can neither with propriety engage to provide the full amount of the salaries of missionaries in Upper Canada and Nova Scotia, nor yet to supply the difiference between £3,800 and the full amount of the salaries in New Brunswick. Much as he laments the fact, he perceives it to be undeniable, and lie sees for it no remedy. But he would not on that account abstain from making such an effort on behalf of the clergy as is practicable, and commensurate with the means which Government can command. The Lords Commissioners of the Treasury are aware than in Upper Canada, where the Crown revenues already contribute a sum of £3,630 in aid of the payment of missionaries, such a further sum could, though not without difficulty, be derived from the same source, as would constitute a payment of 85 per cent, on the entire amount of their salaries ; and in New Brunswick, even if the territorial revenue be made over to the Assembly, on the moderate terms on which it has been offered to that body, the commuted revenue would still afford the small sum which would be requisite (in addition to the amount of £3,800) for a payment of 85 per cent, on the present salaries of the missionaries. In Nova Scotia there are no local resources available for the object in view ; but, if Parliament should convert into a vote for the clergy of this colony the grant of £4,000 intended to be made to the Society for the Propagation of the Gospel this year, and should continue the vote during the lives of the present missionaries, the amount vould suffice to make on this station a larger payment than was contemplated by the Society in the communication to the Bishops in North America, to which I have already adverted. Such are the arrangements under which Mr. Stanley thinks that, from the 1st April, 1834, His Majesty's Government niiglit undertake to relieve the Society for the Propagation of the Gospel from all charge on account of the missionaries at present in Upper Canada and Nova Scotia ; and from all charge, above £3,800, on account of missionaries in New Brunswick ; the Society being engaged to make the remaining provision requisite for the support of its clergy employed in North America. It has been ascertained by Mr. Stanley that the Society would cheerfully acquiesce in such a plan. I am, therefore, to request that you will acquaint me whether it meets the concurrence of the Lords Commissioners of the Treasury, and whether their Lordships would be prepared to sanction the proposed employment of a part of the Crown revenues of Upper Canada and New Brunswick, as well as the ap])lication which, if these reconmiendations be adopted, must be made to Pailiumeut for the appro])riation and contiimance, in favour of missionaries in Nova Scotia, of the grant to be made this year to the Society for the Propagation of the Gospel.

Copy of a Letter from the Ht J. Stewart to R. W. Hav, Esq., dated Treasury Chambers, 15/A May, 1834. Sir, I AM commanded by the Lords Commissioners of His Majesty's Treasury to ac<|uaint you, for the information of Mr. Secretary Stanley, that my Lords having had under their consideration the circimistances urged in your letter of the 2'M ultimo, with respect to the inissionariei ein|»loye(l in the North Anieriean Colonies by tlie Society lor the Pro|iiigii- tion of the Gospel, cannot but admit tliat the interests of the parties who have been induced to engage in the missions by the stipends which the aid of Parliament enabled tlie Society to offer should be protected, so far as may be consistent with the imperative demands for economy in every brancli of the jtublic expenditure. My Lords are therefore willing, with the view of alleviating the distress to which the missionaries would be exposed l)y the very large reduction of their stipends which is provided for by the Society's letter to the Bishops of Quebec and Nova Scotia, of the 1st July last, to accede to Mr. Stanley's recommendation for the adoption of such an arrangement as may ensure to the present missionaries the continuance of salaries somewhat below the rates they have hitherto received, but exceeding the rates to which the Society, if deprived of all aid, would be constrained to reduce them. My Lords ^vill accordingly sanction the appropriation out of the terri- torial revenue of Upper Canada of a sum not exceeding £6,506 per annum, for payment of such stipends to the missionaries now doing duty in that province as shall be equal to £85 per cent, of the stipends they received from the Society and from the Government for the year ending 1st July, 1833, with the understanding that, as the present mis- sionaries drop off, this appropriation is to diminish and eventually to cease. My Ijords will likewise sanction the appropriation out of the territorial revenue of New Brunswick of a sum not exceeding £552 per aimum, in aid of the provision of £3,000 per annum, to be made by the Society, so long as such aid shall be requisite for continuing to the missionaries, already settled in that province, stipends equal to £85 per cent, of the stipends they received for the year ended 1st July, 1833; but which aid is to be reduced and wholly dis(;ontinued as any dhninution *akes place in the ininiber of the missionaries already engaged. In further pursuance of this arrangeni; ;it, and on adveiting to the pro- ceedings that have already taken place for obtaining from Parliament the grant of £4,000 in aid of the funds of the Society for the Propagation of the Gospel, my Lords conceive that it may be sufficient that the Society should, for the present year, undertake to a])ply the whole of this grant to the support of the missionaries in Nova Scotia, assigning them such pro- portionate rates of stipend, with referenct; to what they received for the year ended 1st July last, as that grant nuiy afford the means of l>aying ; and my Lords will be prepared to sanction future applications to Parlia- ment for such proportion of the grant of £4,000 as nuiy be necessary to continue the payment of the rates of stipend, to be assigned for the ]>resent year to such of those individuals now employed as missionaries in Nova Scotia, as may remain in the discharge of their spiritual duties in that province. As these arrangements will take effect from the 1st ultimo, and as the Society will have received the grant of £8,000 for the year ending at that day, my Lords presume the Society will be able, and will B H 1 I) li i consent to muko gotHi to tlit; niitisionnruis up to tliiit puriiMi tlx; rates of 8ti])end to wiiicli tliey will lie entitled under this arningeinent, insteml ol' enforcing the whole of the reductions provided for l»y the letter of the Bishops in North America of 1st July, 1833. My Lords also consider their sanction to have been given to this arrangement ui)on the distinct understanding that the Society will be prepared to support the present remaining missionaries upon the scale adopted in the statement which accompanied your letter, and especially that the allowances will be con- tinued from its funds to the five rectors in Lower Canada, and that no further claims on this account will in any event be made on the public revenue of this country or of the colonies. As the sole object of this arrangement is to secure some competent provision for those individuals who have heretofore been engaged as missionaries, and ds it is not intended to apply to any future missions or to any other system of ecclesiastical establishment in these Colonies, my Lords would further request to be favoured with a statement specifying the names of the Society's missionaries now employed in Upper and Lower Canada, in New Brunswick, and in Nova Scotia, the periods at which they were sent out by the Society, the places at which they are stationed, the amount of the stipends they received prior to the Ist July, 1833, either from t'ne Society or froiTi the colonial funds, or other sources, and the amount of the stipends to which they will now l)e entitled ; and my Lords conceive it will be proper that copies of these statements should be transmitted to the Governors of each of the respective Colonies, with directions to report all casualties that may occur amongst the individuals whose names api)ear in them, in order to the gradual reduction and eventual discontinuance both of the applications to Parliament and of the appropriations of colonial funds, as the parties may die off or otherwise remove from or resign their missions. I am, &c. (Signed) J. STEWART. I No. 3. II St Copy of a Lettfr J'roui R. W. Hay, Esq., fo tlif Hon. J. Stewaht, dated Downinff Street, Vith May, 1h34. SiH, I AM directed l»y Mr. Secretary Stanley to ac(|uaiiit you, for the in- formation of the Lords Commissioners of His Majesty's Treasury, that an application for pensions from two missionaries lately itmployed in the diocese of Quebec having been referred to the Society for the Propagation of the Gospel for investigation, the enclosed letter has been received from the Secretary to the Society, containing a rejK)rt that the Rev. Mr. Parkins appears to have estttblished his right to a pension. Ill the year \HUi ii |)eimioii of £10() \ttiv aiiniiiii was |iruini8tMl Ity li^iiil HiitliiirHt, with the coiiuiirreiiee ot'tlie Jiourd oi' TreuHury, to Niioh iniHsion- uries eiii|)loyeeen connnonly held out by the Society for the Propagation of the Gospel as one of the inducements to clergymen to undertake a mission to the North American Colonies. There is no doubt that the engagement remains in force, and it is certain that the Society for the Propagation of the Gospel will not, after the loss of the aid formerly derived from Parliament, undertake to defray the pensions which the Government, under the circumstances I have stated, seems bound to grant. I am therefore directed by Mr. Secretary Stanley to request that you 'vill bring the subject generally under the consideration of the Lords Commis- sioners of the Treasury, and more especially that you will submit to their Lordships the claim of Mr. Parkins, to be allowed from such fund, as they may deem proi)cr, a pension of £10() per annum. As Mr. Parkins resigned his employment mure than a twelvemonth ago, and has only drawn an allowance of £80 per aiumm since that time, granted to him temporarily by the Society for the Propagation ol' the Gospel, he will, for the period that has elapsed, have a claim to the difi'erence between the allowance he has received and the amount of the pension to which he is deemed entitled.
