The Report on Temperance was presented and read by Mr. Peter \Vrif;ht, the Con- vener of the Committee. The Report sot forth in lari,'e detail features of an onctjuiaging character, and the oi)po8ite, in different regiou.s of the country, and had annexed to it recommendations for the adoption of the Assembly. On motion of Mr. Walter Paul, of Montreal, secimded by the Hon. Senator Vidal, the Report wasreceived. TheAssemblyproceededtoconsiderthe recommendationsof the Report neriufim. It was moved by Mr. Wright and duly seconded, that the first recommendation be adopted in words following : — 1. That we again dt;claie our conviction that the traffic in int(jxicating liquor is contrary to the Word of (Jod; that our jteople should guard against any complicity with it in any form whatsoever ; that its total suppression by the State is the pro[)er goal of all true temperance legislation, and is one of the worthiest aims of an enlightened Christian philanthropy, and symjjathy witli i)rohibitory legislation should be deemed an essential (jualitication in those who re[)rescnt us in the Parliaments of our country." It was suggested by Mr. D. .1. Macdonnell that the (irst and second recommendations were not placed in the position relative to their sigiiiticancy and value. The Convener, while still holding that the mere arrangement of the recommendations was of compara- tively little importance, consented, with the leave of the Assembly, that the first and second recommendations should be transposed.

Dr. Reid reported that he had received a ccMnmunication from the Clerk of the Pres- bytery of Calgary too late to be submitted to the Committee, respecting Mr. W. A. Bradley, a student in Theology, who had be^n labouring in the bounds of the Presbytery, and had been examined by said Presbytery. On motion of Dr. Robertson, duly seconded, it was agreed : That Mr. W. A. Bradley having been examined by the Presbytery of Calgary on the subjects specified in the report transmitted by the Presbytery, and the Presbytery having sustained that examination as satisfactory, Mr. Bradley be accorded his standing as a student of the second year ; that he be allowed to enter Knox College next session as a student of the third year, and tliat the report of the Presbytery be sent to the Senate of Knox College.

Macdonald, on behalf of the Committee, gave in an 1 read a supplementary Report on the regulations of the Fund. On motion the Report was received and referred for consider- ation to a joini meeting of the Committee on Retiring Ministers and the Committee on the Aged and Infirm Ministers' Fund.

Principal Cavan to be the Ct)nvener of the Connnittee. TEMPERANCE. The Assembly returned to the consideration of the Rej)ort of the Committee on Tem- perance interrupted last night by the adjournment. The second, now the first, third, fourth, and fifth reconnnendations were read and adopted. The sixth recommendation was read and the adoption thereof moved by Mr. Wright, and seconded. It was moved in amendment by Dr. Laing, seconded by Dr. Kellogg, — That all between " while " on line [29G] THE PHESHYTEUIAN CHLUCH IN CANAUA. 43 ■les and ols and morial, ffect to n this In Tern- third, hdation |)V ed in on line r\ cut", and "seeing" on line three be deleted, and that the folh)\ving be substituted, "recogtiizini,' tliat at present the restriction of the liciuor trufHo by license cannot be dis- penaid with, and." On a vote being taken the amendment was lost. Mr. H. H. Mci'her.son, seconded by Dr. Thomi)son, moved a second amendment, as follows .— Tliat the tiist part of the recommendation as far as the word "license" in the third line, be omitted. Thi.« anjendmenfc was also lost. It was further moved in amendment by Mr. .1. .Ii>hns()U, seconded l)y Dr McCurdy— That the hrst three lines as far as the word " would," in the third line, be omitted, and the following substituted therefor— " That while regarding total prohibition as the ultimate aim of the Church, for the attainment of the end. this MM Assemlily.'" This amendment was also lost, and the .^ixth recommendation was adopted. fl On mytion the .seventh recommendation was agreed to. It was moved by Dr. Thompson, seconded by Mr. J. Thomson— That the eighth recommendation be omitted. This nu)tion was lost and the recommendation adopted. The ninth recommendation was then agreed to. The recommendations as adopted are as follows : — I. That we renew (tur testimony to the effect that the (iospel of Christ alone can uplift and bless the race, purify and save society, and make of us a temperate and firosper' ous people ; and we W(ndd therefore express our gratitude to God that in combatting the evils of intemperance, the Church has kept Christ and His Gospel so C(ms )icuously in the foreground as the sole refuge of perishing men, and the sovereign remedy for every ill. II. That we again declare our conviction that the general trafho in intoxicating licjuor is contrary to the Word of God ; that our people should guard against any complicity with it in any form whatsoever ; that its total supjjression by the State is the proper goal of al' true temperance legislation, and is one of the worthiest aims of an enlightened Christian philanthropy ; and that sympathy with prohibitory legislation should be deemed an essen- tial ({ualitication in those who represent us in the Parliaments of our country. III. That this Assemblj' recognizing the value of wise Christian teaching on this subject, would urge on the ministers and othce-bearers of our Church the importance of taking a leading part in so mouldina public sentiment and in so educating the public con- science as to secure the early and total prohibition of the licpi n- trathc. IV. In view of the acknowledged fact that much of the wine of commerce is exceed- ingly imjiure, we would strongly urge on all tlie Sessions of our Church the duty of securing, as far as possible, the pure ' * fruit of the vine " for use in the Sacrament of the Supj)er. V. That we express cordial approval of the provision made in so many Provinces of our Dominion for i>ublic school instruction in scientific temperance ; our extreme satis- faction with the recent action of the New Brunswick i3oard of Education touching this matter ; our grateful acknowledgment of the further advancement made in Ontario, in allowing value for this subject at the entrance examinations ; and our hope that in all our Provinces this subject will sf)on be inserted in the curriculum of the schools, and placed in every respect on an equal footing with other important branches of study. VI That, while repudiating any symjjathy whatever with the license systems, and guarding against any word or actions that might be cc-nstrued into willing tolercance or approval thereof ; yet, seeing the larger part of our Dominion is at present under license, this Assembly would urge and encourage the members and adherents of our Church to take the fullest advantage of each and every prohibitory feature of the License Acts^such as reducing the hours in which li((uor can lie sold ; banishing it entirely from any given locality ; and generally, in so hedging in the trathc as to greatly promote public morality and domestic peace. VII. That we record our aj)preciation of services rendered to the cause by many (jf our most prominent public journals ; by various Temperance Societies ; and especially by the Women's Christian Temperance Unions throughout the land. [29T] i 44 ACTS AND PKOCEEOINOS OF THE FIFTEENTH OENEHAL ASSEMIUY OF VIII That we renew the recommendations of i)ast years to form Temperance Societies and Bands of Hope in our conion is placed in such a position as to disparage Christianity, or leave the young unaccjuainted with the fundamental historical facts and moral teachings of the Word of G.jd. 3. The General Assembly still adheres firmly to the belief that the Bible should be made in the Public Schools the subject of regular systematic instruction, and rejoices to believe that a rule to this effect, combined with a conscience clause, giving full relief to every objector, and with a clause empowering trustees to dispense with such instruction when they deem it expedient, would be most acceptable to the difl'erent branches of the Christian Church. 4. The General Assembly appoints a Committee to wjvtch legislation on this subject, in the different Provinces, and endeavor, where j)racticable, to influence it in the dirocticn of the expressed views of this Church to take steps for securing the cooperation of other branches of the Christian Church for this end, and to report to next Assembly. REPORT ADOPTED — COMMITTEE RE-APPOINTED.

On motion of Dr. Campbell, seconded by Dr. McMuUen, it was agreed : That the Assembly receives and adopts the Report, rejoices at the evidence of i)rosperity which has attended the publication of the Rpciird, as witnessed by the financial statement now presented, and the increase in the circulation, and ccmnnends it anew to the confidence and cordial support of the Church. CHURCH AND MANJSE FIND. The Assc.jibly called for the Report of the Committee on the Church and Manse Building Fund for Manitoba and the North-West Territories. The Report, in printed form, was presented by Chief Justice Taylor, setting fortli at length the condition preciation of its success and high standing as manifested by the late examinations : regretting, however, that the attendance and support which the College has received during tho past year has not been commensurate with its claims upon our people, particularly as this is the only institution of its kind connected with our Church. Especially does this Assembly record its great satisfaction that Dr. Cochrane has consented, at the earnest request of the Board of Directors and the Advisory Council, to assume the position of (Governor, and also to give such service in teaching and other- wise as his time will allt)w, as this will secure the fullest contidence of the country in the institution and make its future success certain. The Assembly hereby commends the College anew to the symi)athy and practical support of all our people. The Assembly also nomi- nates the following gentlemen, from among whom six shall be elected at next annual meeting to act on the Board of Directors for the ensuing year, namely : Rev. VVm.

The Assembly called for the Report of the Committee appointed at a former Sederunt to classify the Returns to the Remits on the several subjects sent down to Presbyteries last year. Mr. George Bruce, the Convener of the Conunittee, read the Report. The Report stated that thi-ee matters were remitted by last Assembly for the consideration of Presbyteries, namely : — First — The remit on marriage with a dece sed wife's sister. Second — On the supply of vacancies. Third — On the matter of a fund for the payment of the travelling expenses of Com- missioners to the General Assembly. The Report on the marriage question was in terms following : — " With regard to marriage with the sister of a deceased wife, there has evidently bet n a difference of opinion between Presbyteries as to what was sent down for consideration. Some evidently liol'l- ing that Presbyteries were asked to pronounce upon two remits ; others confining their attention to one — presumably the last mentioned in the minutes of the Assembly — which is, " Whether subscriptions to the formula in which office-bearers accept the Confession of Faith shall be so understood as to allow liberty of opinion in lespect to the proposition: ' A man may not marry any of his wife's kindred nearer in blood than he may of his own.' The other remit, to which some Presbyteries have sent in returns, is in these terms: — " The discipline of the Ciiurch shall not be exercised in regard to marriage with a deceased wife's sister, or a deceased wife's niece." Both the remits were sent down to Presbyteries under the Barrier Act, and the returns may be suimnarized as fol' »vs :— Twenty-nine Presbyteries in all sent in returns to these remits. Of these twenty-five approve, three disapprove, and one approves of the first and disap])roves of the second. A clear analysis shows that : — Eighteen of those approving speak of only one remit, and approve si»y)/tV(7pr— pre- sumably in reference to that referring to a modified subscription to the Confession in the matter in question. [308] THE I'HESHYTERIAN CHUUCH IN CANADA. .)0 Seven mention the two remits and express approval of both, and cf tliese one (Toronto) gives the vote, the tirat remit being sustained by a vote of eight :o four ; the second by hve to two. In two Presbyteries dissents were entered. Of the three Presbyteries disapproving, one (the Presbytery of Bruce) does so ))y a vote of eleven to seven, and all three speak of only one remit. The Presbytery of Wallace approves of tlie first remit and disapproves of the second. It will be for the Assembly to determine in what sense it will understand the returns which refer to only one remit when two have been sent down on the same subject, and ti> which of the two the returns will be held to apply. II. SCPl'LY OF VACANCIES. The remit on the supply of vacancies was sent down in tlie form of a scheme cctntain- ing eight clauses, with the request to Presbyteries to send up criticisms upon it Eighteen Presbyteries and one Synod (Manitoba) send returns to the remit. Of those not rej)ort- ing the Synod may, perhaps, be held practically to represent the mind of the Presbyteries within its bounds ; while those Presbyteries within the bounds of the Synod of the Mari- time Provinces do not evidently feel themselves called upon to i)ronounce upon the merits of a scheme applying (mly to the Western sectilicih'r. Seven disapprove. Nine give a nKxlitied approval. One gives no opinion. One gives the analysis of the vote. This remit, like the preceding, is in the form of a scheme, which was bi'fore the Assembly in 1887, and here again there is dithculty in summarizing tlie views so as to give the mind of the Church. Four Presbyteries approve of the scheme simplicitrr. Seven disapprove simpliritcr, while on the other hand, Fourteen give a modified approval. Seven giving a limited or conditional disapproval. Here, as in the case of supply of vacancies, it is evident that there is a desire that something should be doi\e ; but it is equally clear th*t the scheme which has been propcjsed must be greatly modified before it [309] i 50 ACTS AM) PROCEEDlNfJS <^F THK FIFTEENTH GENERAL ASSEMBLY OF can he iiocei)teil. Iiuloed, it mif^'ht almost he douhted from the remits whether the Church is prepared to deal witii the matter etl'uctually at the present time. The Uui)ort was received. .M.\KKIA(iK QUESTION, On the part of the return relatiii'^ to tlie marriai^e que.stion. it was moved l)y Dr. Caven, duly seconded and agreed to as follows : — Apjwint the following Committee to consider the action on the (juestion of marriage witn a deceased wife's sister, which, i;. view of the returns of Presbyteries to the remit on the subject, may be recommended to the (Jeneral Assemlily, to repoi-t at the evening .Sederunt.

Mackenzie, Elders. vacancies' scheme. On the scheme for the supply of vacancies the Assembly resolved as follows : —That the scheme sent down in the remits lie ado])ted for the present year, and, with the suggestions a!id criticisms of Presbyteries on the same in their returns, be transmitted to the {'(junuittee on the Distribution of Proliationers, that they may consider the same and report an amended scheme at next Assembly as they may see fit, TRAVELLING EXPENSES. There was taken up and read an overture from the Presbytery of Ottawa on the subject of the travelling expenses of Commissioners. On motion of Mr. Robe. ^ Murray> duly seconded, the Assembly resolved as follows : — That the overture from the Presby- tery of ( )tt;nva be received, and that the matter of a general fund for travelling expenses be deferred until the Assembly decide as to the remit on reducing the membership of the Assembly.

What the Ciiureh owes to her noble band of Home Missionaries in far distant fields, who labour imder great (liHiculties, and suffer at times severe privation, cannot be understood. The mere record of their Uiimes and the stations occupied, and the miles traversed in going between, but feebly tells the story of theii' lives. In tiie Xorth-We.*^ and British C'lumbia om- work goes on prosperously, and its more rapid extension is urgently demanded, in view of the large increase of poi>ulation that emigration from the Old World to the New is making montli after month.

SUMMARY OF MISSION AND A U( J MENTATION WORK. PHESHYTKKV OF (iCEHKC. Mixsians. Tliere are few changes to report in the Missions of the PresViytery. All our fields have bee regularly supplied throughout the year, with the exception of Massawipj)! and Kichby, which were supplied during the summer and during the Christmas vacation, V'alcartier has been supplied for several years by a student Missionary. This field suffers from the jioorness of the soil, and more esijecially from the indifference to religious services that prevails, owing, in many cases, to mixed marriages and neglect of attendance at the Ho\ise of (iod. An ordained Missionary is needed here in the interests of the (ieople, and of our Church. Kennebec Road has enjoyed a term of refreshing. The Missionary reixirts an increase of the membershij), and appreciation of the (iospel, by the people of this region. Tlie influx of sunnner visitors ti) Metis benefits the fit 1 financially, but withdraws many of the people from the means of grace during the summer. There ia great need here, as else- where, of a spiritual awakening. Sawyerville made no real progress during the year. The partial failure of the crops, and the troubles in connection with the Hereford Railway, hurt the Mission financially. The prospects of i IV.

The grant to Windsor .Mills was less than the grant of last year. Windsor Mills has also repaired their church. The other aiigiiientijd co??gregatioii8 received the same grant as those of |)receding years. The Aug- mentation Fund has eiial)Ted the Presbytery to effect the settlement of a pasti700. The total grants for the current year amount to SI, '.(00, as compared with .*i;i,()00 in 1884. The success of the Scheme in this Presbytery has lieen most gratifying. It has not only enabled our weak con- gregations to secure and retain the services of regularly inducted pastors ; it has also stimulated the lilierality of these congregations, so that fron-. year to year the ai'o'i'pmvtM in-nnt fr.mi tliu Vnmi ! esteadily decreased.

Missions, The Mission work in this Presbytery, though beset with the many difficulties which neces^-arily arise out of a divided Protestantism in the midst of a ijopulatiou that is largely Catholic, was attended with some measure of success during the past year. For the causes referred to, our Mission fields grow but slowly towards the positiiin of pastoral charges, or even of increased supiiort. Their growth is hindered by the freonent removal of individuals and families, whose places are very generally taken by Roman Catholics. The wide and needy field of Cantley and Portland is, at present, suffering a severe loss by the removal of the Rev. 1). Findlay, who has given many years of earnest and faithful labour, .i.s ordained Missicmary, to this field. The Presbytery feel that it will be difficult to secure a successor of like mind to take his place. As in former years, the Presbytery is greatly indebted to the students of Montreal College for the large measure of supply they have given, at much j)ersonal sacrifice, to several of their Mi.ssion fields during the winter months. Hut distance rendered it imiiossible to secure su|)ply for some other fields. By the transference of Onslow from the Lanark and Renfrew Presbytery to Ottawa, aiiective pastors. The congregation of Lanark, idso, has been removed froui the Fund. 13y these changes a saving to the extent of S430 has been made. Uiion careful incpiiry we found that no reduction could be made in the grants to Elnisley and Kganville anrl Scotch Push. In the congregation of Klni.sley a new church was opened during the winter. Bromley, which was vacant for several months, has lately been settled, and the prospects of this congregation are bright. PRKSBYTKRY OK ItHOCKVILLK. Missions, I. North Williamsburg and Manchester Springs :— This field has been continuously sui>plied, with advantage, by a C.atechist — Mr. Hugh .Tack- -for the past year, who has done excellent work among our peoi)le there. When he leaves (for college) in the fall, an effort will be made to organize it as a supiilemented charge. II. Stone's Corners and North Augusta : — This is the nifist promising Mission field within our bounds, and bids fair shortly to become a settled charge. Two new churches are in contemplation this summer. They also have had continuous service during the winter, through students of (Queens College. III. Morton and Delta : — During the ])ast year this field has been regularly supplied by several iabourers, and for the last six months by a student, who has proved acceptaVile and efficient. The ]ienple, however, are very anxious to receive the services of an ( rdained Missioii-xry to meet their spiritual wonts, but as they are only able to raise $300 per annum, and the Home Mission Committee can only .see their way to grant a like sum each year, such an apjiointment seems to be, at present, impossible There seems no |)rosi)ect now of such improvement in their financial condition as woiild warrant us in cherishing the hope that such a labourer can be secured. IV. Chesterville : — This is a new station, and has been until the last year part of the charge nf Dunbar and Colcjuhoun's. The village, since the comjiletion of the C. P. K. through it, has grown in numbers and importance, and Presbytery has decided to continue it, for a time, as a Mission station, uncier the hope that it will become either a self-,supporting charge, or perhaps, \»hich is more likely, of suHicient strength to be as.sociated with some other station, when other re-arrangements have befm made. It is now under charge of a student, and is growing rapidly. V. Pleasant Valley : — This station, which was set off from the charge of Iroquois and Dixon's Corners some time ago, and united with the congregation of Heckston and South Mountain, has again been discontinued, and the peojile have been counselled by Presbytery to go to South .Nlouii- taiii, a distance of four miles, for their religious services. The peojile insist upon ]>ieaching within their own bounds, and for the most part object to going so far to worship. It remains to be seen what may be the outcome of Presbytery's efforts to bring about a better state of feeling. . iwrntntation. We have now four an^ented charges within our bounds, two of which were until recently upon the list of our mission stations. There is nothing exceptional in any of them to call for any special remark. We again would remark uixni the grand arrangements of the Augmentation Fumi, and its advantages in the all-important work of Church extension. This Presbytery has abundant reason to thank God for what congregations have been encouraged t' > do f I ir themselves through its beneficent help. ■U' '' i THE PKESBYTKUY OK KINfiSTON. Missions. There are eighteen groups of mission stations within the bounds of this Presbj'tery. Two of these, viz., Portsni. Poland, etc., si:; stations, Rev. Jas. Mcllroy.

(•Queen's College Missionary .Vssociation has mateiially helped our work by giving several Sab- baths' supply during the winter to the most of oiu' mission tields. The ^Association takes u)) the two Heliis of .Matawatchan and Wilbur for the summer, without any expense to the II, JM, Fund, thus repeating this year what they did last sunniier. AinjMintntiim. have Last year there were nine aid-receiving congregations in this Presbytery. Since then two been reduced to i(iissiunt ty this addition the Held has been much strengthened, and at tant day will reach the status of a settled uhar^e. C'ambray and Oakwood have been niakiiij,' steady proxress since services were established hitter place, four years ago. At the last meetinx of the Committee this field was raised to tin of an augmented congregation, and is now in a position to extend a call to a minister. AutjMfiUation, In this dei>artment of the work most gratifying i)rogress has bet n made during the jiast tw< years. Last year Hiiinlerlaiid and \'roomantoii, which had been receiving a grant of S'2i)0 \\\) to that date, was removed from the list, and now pays a stipend of .*S00 and a manse. This left the I'resliy- teiy with two augmentetl charges, vi/.., Fenelon Falls, Leaskdale and Zephyr, tiie former receiving from the Committee •S'-TiO and the latter >!li>0 annually. This year the grant to Feueloii Falls has been reduced by ileasant resort. Among these boys there is interesting work for the missionary. Long Branch, about two miles farther west, will iii' supplied with Mimico. Akso another point nearer the city, known as the neighbourhood of the IJolt Works, can be visited by the student settled in the abo\e place. Still another new Held has been opened. It is known as the " Five Points." This is a short di-tance northwest <^f I loveicourt \'illage, and is wi.rked in connection with that mission in the meantime. A lot is secured and a church is being erected. Missions in the City -.— First in order is Duchess Street Mission, and is in connection with Knox Church. The Sabbath School and Sabbath evening service, as well as |)iayer-meetiiigs, are well maintained. This is a destitute portion of the city and is in great need of just such work as is being vigorously prosecuted by the band of Christian men and women still connected with Knox Church. 2. St. Marks, King Street West, has made decided progress in the last year. A large and well- furnished school-room has been Viiiilt and will answer well for Church purposes for some time. This will doubtless be one of our self-sustaining charges ere long. This mission is worthy of the enter- pri.'^ing congregation of St Andrews, King Street West, which has had the full respcmsibility of its maintenance since its inception. 3. St. John's Mission, East of the Don : — Most satisfactory progress has been made in this new centre. At an early day this also will rank along with our self-sustaining churches. St. James' vS(}uare Church has been responsible for this station in every sense, and in this is the main reason for its present prosperous condition, under the blessing of (jrod. 4. Winchester Street Mission is etHciently worked in connection with Old St. Andrews, and evidently has a prosperous future before it. 5. C'^'itral Church Mission, in St. .Folin's Ward, is vigorous in its operations and promises to more than conserve its honourable record in the past year. t). William Street Mission : — Special services were held here for some weeks during the winter with very gracioUs re.-3ults, a goodly number giving evidence of a genuine work of grace. This mis- sion is in connection with Erskine Churcli. For the encouragement of elders, be it said, this good Work was largely under the leadership of one of the elders of Erskine Church. 7. Claremont Street Mission :— Very gratifying progress was made in this field. A neat mission church was erected. The Sabbath School and Sabbath evening .services are largely attended. This work is the result of the efforts of the pastor and members of the West Church. 8. Davenport Road Mission :-;— The Sabbath School and Sabbath evening services are well sustained. At no distant day this station will, we believe, develop into a good congregation. Charles Street Church had the honour of planting this mission, as it had the honour of founding Deer Park Church. !t. Seaton Village : — Here a suitable church was built last year. The Sabbath School has greatly increased. The services morning and evening are encouraging. With the growth of the city here, as it has grown elsewhere, there will soon be a good sphere of labour and a large congrega- ti(m. This field is worked by the Session of College Street Church. 10.

Alinsioiis. The Dui'ng the jjast year the work of the Church has been diligently prosecuted in the bounds, greater niunber of the stations here enjoyed winter su))ply, and tlu- missionaries, students, and catechikts have, with scarcely an exceptiastoral charge with a little aid at first from the Augmentati(m Fund. Credit is due to Rev. .1. Leishman, of Angus and New Lowell, for the formation of this new charge. Three or four years ago the Presbytery acce))ted Mr. Leish- man's resignation of Airlie as jiart of his charge. It stood alone at first and received student sujiply, but new groimd was taken uj) under direction of Mr. Leishman as Moderator of Session, new stations added, and now there is exjiectation of a good jiastoral chaige. Guthrie Church and IVlitchell Stpiare, Oro, formerly a charge, is now on the Home Mission list, and is bupplied by Rev. .7. Hunter with accei)tance. Severn Bridge, etc., a charge which became vacant by the resignation of Rev. A. H. Drumni, is .also on the list of stations. North Bay : — An encour.aging reiiort has been received from tiiis congregation since the above was written. Mr. (Toodwillie has conducted two service's on Sabbath, superintended the Sabbath School, held weekly prayer-meeting, visited the peoj'le diligently, and a marked improvement is vi.dble. On Sabbath, 10th April, twenty-two were added to the membership by certificate and on profession of faith. The attendance on the services is increased. The Sabbath collections average •S9.00. The attendance at Sabbath School is between fifty and sixty, .and at prayer-meeting twenty. Auiiriimtation. L.ast year there were ten congregations in this Presbytery receiving aid from the Augmentation Fund to tlie amount of SI, 07:") for the year. The number now is seven, receiving $1,000 (including the grant of !?50 expected for one congregation, the aijplication being delayed till October next). The changes during the year are as follows : 1. Removed from the list, Townline and Ivy, October 1, Midland, December 31. 2. Reduced applications, Es-son and Willis, .^100 to $50. 3. Taken oft" the list and jjl-aced on the list of Missum Stations, Parry Sound, Severn Bridge, Washago and Ardtrea. 4. Increase of grant, Penetanguishene, etc., S50 additional. Additional Report of Rev. A. Findlaii. Muskoka. -With a staff of twenty-five missionaries during the summer half year, and of thirteen during the winter months, pretty full service has been given to the stations on this field during the past year. In niiiny of the stations very decided growth is visible, while in most of them ai)pear- ances are very promising. At Sudbury, etc., a deep interest is being taken in the prosperity t)f Zion by the comiiaratively few families found there. With a membership of about twenty, ttiey raise .$400 per annum for the support of ordinances among themselves. The crying need here at present is a church building, as the congregation h&^ successively outgrown the court house and school house. Al'l'KNi»i\ No. 1.

AtHosHcau, under Mr. I. (Jarrioch, a step in advance haH been taken, an increasing intwreMt beiiiff developed in the prosperity of the cause. A sliKht re-arran(;enient of the field here has been effected, which will be a benefit lioth to missionary and people, Mr. Hewitt, at Parry Souiicl, enjoys the comfort of seeinjf the work prosper with him. An adilition to the church builditij,' has been found necessary to accommodate the increased attendance at public worship. These individual cases are referred to as showinj,' the state of affairs over the wiiole Held, want of space preveiitin>f a reference to each station or Held individually. Financially, thou^fh the past year has lieen one if soine depres- sion, yet the Contributions of the stations to the Schemes are somewhat in advance of last year. One means, liy which the interest of the iieople is sustaiiie(l and their liberality drawn forth, is by me:ins of our Hirtiril, which, with its inoiithly tidiiiKs fmni the Held, both at home and in foiei^^n lands, ^.'.les to ;ibout 1,0(10 homes each month in these wide districts, keepinj^ the i pie alive to the j,'rowin« neeils of the Church, and leadinjf them to ]>ass on the cup of which they have drank to those who are thirsting.

There is little to re|nirt with regard to Home Mission work in this Presbytery during the i)ast year ; but some good, anil, it is l)elieved, lasting work has been accomplished. It has l)een our aim to raise the mission stations as (luickly as )(ossil)le to the status of regular congregations, witli a view to si'ttlement under a stated [lastor, and also to work the field with a strict regard to economy. North Strict (Tempo). This station, about seven miles north of St. Thonuis, is between five and six miles from the nearest Presbyterian chiu-ch. It declined somewhat last summer, l)ut has picked up considerably again during the winter mouths. It is pr()i«)sed to endeavmu' to effect a luiion as soon as possible with some neighbouring congregation, and therebj' constitute a new patitoral charge. Aiu/mcntation. Springfield and Ayliuer. — Each of these was supplied as a mission station during last summer, in the course of which a nea. ttle l)rick church was built at the latter place. Springfield still holds its own, although in spite of dis.advantages, and Aylnier has increased in the number of adhering families, and has also considerably augmented its communion roll. A union has been effected between these places, so that they are now prepared to call a pastor. Although help will be needed from the Augmentation Fund, yet the draft therefrom will be considerably le.s8 than what was formerly reipiired from the Home Mission Fund to work them as mission stations, and it is hoped the results will i)e much more satisfactory. East Williams — The Rev. D. Cameron, who lalxnired here as a missionary during the |)a8t year, was regularly called by the congregation, and has recently been inducted into this pastoral charge. PKKSBYTEUY OK CHATHAM. Missions. There has been some progress in the mission fields of this Presbytery. Leamington has been erected into a sei)arate congregation and has called a minister ; it promises to be self-supporting. Tilbury Centre has been united to Strangfield, and the two are hearing candidates with the view of giving a call. A new station has been formed in the vicinity of Leamington, viz.. Goldsmith, and has been united to Hlytheswood and Windfall. Pace and Renaud Line, and also Buxton, are in much the same condition as they were last year. Amjtiientation. Duart and Highgate, speaking generally, remain unchanged. There is no room there for growth. It is different with West Tilbury and Comber ; there is room for growth there, and they are growing ; they are receiving less aid than formerly. Caven Church and North Dawn are vacant, and are paying their own way. Al'I'KNDIX No. 1. XI. PHKHIIYTKIIY OK HAUNIA.

Slowly the difticulties are disappearing, ami never were our hopes higher than tliis year. The tide of immigration is not spreading itself, as in for- mer years, over new areas, but rather settling in the older districts. This will increase and strengthen existing congregations. In Manitoba, railway building promises to bring a market near settlements which recjuire only an outlet to be flourishing. Tliere is every prospect of the railway from Kegina to Prince Albert being built as far north us Saskatoon this season. The company in possession of the charter of the road from Lethhridge to Edmonton, promises to make a start too. The Red Deer, Blind Man, Battleford, and other settlements will soon be connected with the outside world, and they will cease to draw so heavily on the funds of the Church. Tl e past year, too, witnessed gratifying accessions to the communion rolls, but the joy was modified by the fact that so many people were all winter like sheep without a shepherd. Never since we began work here was the supply of missionaries relatively so inadequate as last winter, and unless tiie young men of the Church arc willing to make this work their care, we must suffer loss. Stations unsupplied in winter, are in spring weak, almost lifeless. Con- tinuous efl'ort secures the best returns for money expended. Prosperity is also evidenced by the fact that eight additional congregations became self-sustaining, 'uid that there has been a general improvement in financial affairs. Interest in religious matter.) is also shown by attend- ance on ordinances, generous contributions for the erection of churches and manses, and by the desire to advance Sal)bath School work.

The Sacrament of tlie Lord's Supper and haptisni were administered in all the mission lieids hy ministers appointed hy the I'resbyteries. Missionary meetings were held very uenerally and information given ai)out the Schenuss of the Church. Jn a number of congregations evangelistic services were held, and with encouraging re- sults. 'J'he minister, with the Session, took sole control, and got the assistance of ministers of our own Church in the neighbourhood. At Heulah the missionary is attending to mission work among the Hand of Siou.x located on the Hird Tail creek. Both settlers and Indians are satisfied with the arrangement, and a considerable .saving in the funds of tlie church is etlected. It is to be hoped that this example may be followed up at some other points, and so the work of civilizing, as well as Christianising thi! Indians, lie iiastened. Intercourse with whites, and not isolation, will more speedily elevate and learn the Indian. The economising of funds and the extension of work is also a strong recommendation. .SUl'PLV OF MISSIONS. The inadeipiate supply of our mission field last winter must be emphasized. Mis.'iion lii Ids near Winnipeg were supplied by the students of Manitoba College, hut in remote districts the people were left like sheep without a shepherd. Xo fewer than thirty-six districts, having from 1,700 to '2,0(K) families, were unprovided for. The experience of the (Jhurch in the Maritime Provinces along the Ottawa in Central Canada and in Uiiebec abundantly proves that large losses are to result from a continuance of this condition, and tliat we must he content to maintain in- iletinitely a feeble and struggling course where regular supply now would develop a strong and aggressive Ciuirch in a few years. For nnich of this unsatisfactory result the want of interest in home nussions on the part of our young men after graduation is responsible. Men are found in large ninnbers to volunteer for foreign service, and when our own Church is not prepared to send them, they otl'er their ser- vices to American or Hritish churches ; they give the home field a wide berth. Xot one in five of the graduates of this spring offered for the home field, and of those applying for appointment some declined because the field chosen by the 11. M. C. diany (juarters the practice of self-denial is becoming a lost art. The prediction made, a few years ago, that the repeal of the regulation requiring gradu- ates to spend twelve or even six months in the mission field, would cause men who chafed under the restraint imposed by the regulation to volunteer cheerfully for home mission work, has been fully falsified. If the Church is not prepared to go back to the days of controlling the actions of her young ministers, some oiher method should be devised to man the frontier home mission fields in the western section, ^lome mission work is ju.st now the pressing business of the Presbyterian Church. The Students' Missionary Societies of Knox College, Toronto ; Queen's College, Kingston, and Manitoba College, Winnipeg, rendered valuable aid last year, and they all have mission- aries in the field this summer. i xxn.

Three new congregations were placed on the fund, with an aggregate supplement of SoOt). Two congregations erected churches in 1H88. Five congregations aie vacant at present, and owing to tlie distance between the west and the rest of the Church, it is dillicult to give such congregations an opportunity of hearing probationers with the view of secuiing pastois. The H. M. t'. seems dispoied to carry out any feasilile scheme to overcf)ine the difficulty, and is this year making small grants to help defray travelling expenses to the west.

When it is borne in mind that the salary in Manitoba i.s '20 higher than in Ontario and in the North-\\cst 60 higher, this figuie seems moderate.

COLOMBIA PRKSBYTKRY — MISSIONS AND A Lfi MENTATION, The Columliia I'res1)ytfry carry on tlieir work in this remote part of our field with great zeal and diligence. The self-sustaining charges reported last year continue to flourish. The church in Vancouver City, under the pastoral care of Mr. Thomson, has given over a nundier sufficient to form another self-sustaining charge, over which Mr. McF^aren, formerly of Brampton, has ))een settled, with every prospect of speedy growth. Mr. Thomson was assisted last summer in his duties hy tiie JJev. K. Y. Thomson, Lecturer in Knox College, and to their united and earnest efforts the formation of the congregation is due. The New Westminster church, under Mr. Scouler, greatly prospers. Two years ago a handsome manse was built for the pastor, and recently a line new church has been erected. In Victoria, Mr. Fraser's congregation makes steady progress, both in numbers and financial strength, and St. Andrew's, under the pastt)ral charge of Mr. P. .McF. McLeod, has purchased an elegant house for a manse, and is now erecting a new church, to cost in the neighbourhood of §B0,()<)(). The following is a brief outline of the other fields occupied and the changes of the year ; RtCIIMONI). This mission field has, in accordance with a petition from the congregation, been put upon the .Augmentation Fund. Mr. .Jaflary, of Spiillumcheen, has been called, and will soon be settled a.s the first regular pastor in tiiis district. This field was under the care last year of Mr. ('ormack, who, on account of his health, had to leave the I'rovince. The want of regular supply for many months, has been a drawback to the congregation, but under Mr. Jafi'ary it will soon grow, and become, it is ho|ied, self-sustaining. Sl'ALLUMCHKKN. By the removal of Mr. .Taffary from Spallumcheen to Richmond, this import nt field was left vacant. The Rev. John Knox Wright has been appointed for a term of three years, and has entered upon his work. K AM LOOPS. There is nothing special to report al)out Kandoops which is, under the care of Mr. Chis- liolm. Our cause not only keeps up its strength, but the nunibers are growing, so that the grant for next year has been reduced. CllILLIWIlACK. Mr. Patterson was compelled by the illness of his wife (since deceased) to return from this im- portant field before the expiration of his term of service. He has done excellent service in this dis- trict, where, until his arrival, there was no Presbyterian church, and very little apparent hope of sfieedy success. The people have, however, made herculean efforts to build both church and man.se, ami have succeeded beyond the most sanguine expectations. 'T'he following statement, which gives in outline the history of this congregation, is due to the missionary and the people : Mr. Patterson undertook the oversight of this district not two years ago. Up to that time the Cliurch had not entered upon work in this important field. There was therefore no organiza- tion, no church or manse, and just a few Presbyterians scattered over the district. Other churches had been organized many years before and had done good service. Of the few Pres- byterians in the district several went over to the Methodist fold in the absence of ordinances from their own Church, and in the Church of their adoption they and their families have done noble service. There were a few, however, who although finding for the time being a Church home in anotlier denomination, still longed for the time wlien in their own beloved Zion tliey might again worship the Cod of their fathers and their (Joil. They had to wait long, but tiie time to which they looked forward at last came. In respon.se to their request presented to the Columbia Presbytery, they received an assurance that a missionary v.-ould be sent. Very soon after Rev. F. McCuaig, then of Chalmers' church, Kingston, was appointed to this field. Tlie little handful of people began preparations for buililing a suitable place of worship, and after some delay Mr. A. C. Henderson, at his own expense, laid tlie foundation and continued the work of building until he had expended some .?60<) or §700. The missionary appointed did not come. The people were sorely disappointed, and so nothing was done till the second appointment was ma le and the missionary ap^ eared on tiie field. Mr. J. C. Henderson, with- out fee or reward, gave the use of his commodious hall to the congregation as long as they nught require it. Here the congregation met every .Sabbath morning and evening for worship. 1 he congregation has grown steadily in numbers, in interest, in influence, till now it stanas second to none in the whole district. In the early part of August the few people then composing the congregation, with praise- worthy zeal and energy, determined to build a manse and to complete the church ediJ^.oe, and, nobly led by their pastor, who did not even disdain to put his own iiands to the work of buihling, the church and manse are now completed. The cost of the buildings has amounted to about $6,000, and tiiere is but about ^.'JOl' of debt remaining, and this we are sure will soon be wiped out. The manse is a two-story wooden building, 32x.36 feet, solidly built, very comfortably Appendix No. 1. XXV. arranged and presents a very fine appearance. Tlic oliuruh is considerably in advance nf the present need.s of tlie congregation, neatly designed, attractively furnished, and does credit alike to the architect, the enterprise of the congregation, and the coniinunity. It is toilay nne «)f the neatest antl most comfortalily furnished churches in the Province. The windows in grounil and staineil glass were the gift of Mr. J. C. Henderson. The choir is deserving of credit for having provided a first-class Hell organ for the cluircii. Miss Sarah Campliell, late of Indian Lands congregation, Ontario, untlertook the collection of money for the purpose of providing furnishings tor the church, and succeeded so admirably that everything refjuisite for comfort and appearance has been provided. Mr. A. V. Henderson, with praiseworthy generosity, gave the site, consi.sting of fr)urteen acres and valued at iSI,.")!)©. All connected with t)>e congregation iiavedone nobly — none l)etter than the ladies, who, in addi- tion to their other work, have undertaken to pay for the bell. Altogether the Presbyterians of Chilliwhack are to be congratulated on the very nuirked success whicii has attended tlieir every efl'ort during this first year .if their congregational life. Tiieir future, we doubt not, will be very rich in blessing to themselve and to the entire comnninity. The Rev. \V. R. lloss, former'y of Carmen, Manitoba, ims succeeded Mr. Patterson in this most important and promising tield. LASOI.KY. Mr. Tait still ministers in this somewiiat ditRcult and scattered district faithfully and p<'r- severingly. Mud Bay has been taken ofif this charge and added to Ladner nussion tield, which willeiHible Mr. Tait to give better service to the remaining .stations. VIOTOKIA I>I.ST1UCT. The Hev. D. Macrae, who has laboured in the stations comprising tiie Victoria Held for three years, is now in Ontario on leave of absence for six months, ids place being supplied by Mr. Knowles, a student of ^fanitoba College. Mr. Macrae has well earned a vacation, for his labours have been most abundant. MOINT I.EHMANN. Mr. H. R. Fraser has been compelled on account of sickness to resign this mission charge, and Mr. Dunn has been appointed to succeed him. ABERNI. Mr. Dunn's former charge is now supplied by Mr. (J. Lockhart, a student from Manitoba College. This is an exceedingly poor and sparsely .settled tield, and until the prosjMJctH are bet- ter for increased settlement, the Conmuttee do not feel warranted in continuinglthe service of an ordained missionary, and paying, as they have done in the past, nearly two-thirds of his entire salary. COMOX. Mr. Fraser has done a great deal of hard work since coming to this field, and is hopeful of ts future. The people are building a manse. Besides the old tield, Mr. Fraser preaches egularly at Union Coal Mine, which is now beginning regular operations. LAD.NERS' LANPINO, OR TIIK DELTA. This new field comprises Mud Bay, Boundary Bay, McKee's, I^dner's and Westham Island. The formation of this tield puts matters on the Lower Fraser in better shape than ever before. The Committee are at present on the outlook for a suitable missionary for this tield. '■^1 1 ' 1^1 soon The and nued 1 did cond with- light 'HI, TKA V KLLINC } M I8SI0NARY. The Presbytery of Columbia presented a request to the last meeting of the Home Mission Committee for the appointment of a travelling ordained missionary, at a salary of §1,'2(K) per annum. The matter was left in the hands of the Executive, who were emjwwered to expend a sum not exceeding §400 in CAploratory work, during the present summer. ANNUAL REPORT OF MORRIN COLLEGE STUDENTS' MISSIONARY ASSOCIATION, 188S-89. The Students' Missionary Society of this College has been reorganized under very favourable auspices. The Society has for its object mission work, mainly within the bounds of the Presbytery of Quebec. This is carried on by theological students in winter ti le— so far as their college duties allow— and in summertime constantly supplying with the means of grace needy localities in the neighbourhood of Quebec. Seven theological students are at present in the mission tield untler the Church's Home Mission Committee. The Association is supporting one student this summer at Portneuf, a much neglected district about forty miles from the city. i XXVI. Appendix No. 1.

ANNUAL ItKPORT OF *^UKKN'S UNIVERSITY MISSIONARY AS.SOCIATION FOR 18SS-89. As an Association we have every reason to be grateful t<> our Heavenly Father for His continued guidance and blessing during the year which has ])assed. The work of our mission- aries, wiiose repcM-ts are appended, has been faithfidly performed, ami we are sure will i)e abundantly blessed. ' Tiie mission fields chosen by our Association are the more needy ones, and hence its work is truly missionary. At the same time our efl'orts are not withhehl from Foreign Work ; and it is our aim to keep at least one ordained medical missionary in China. During tlu; past winter the mission fields along the K. & P. Railway have been supplieil with services, viz :— Piccadilly, Tichborne, Sliarbot Lake, Wilbur, and Matawatchan. i'ortsmouth Presbyterian congregation has also been supplied, yielding a help towards the funds of our Association. The Hospital and Mouse of Industry have received Sabbath supply,thu8 offering to students a privilege of getting into direct touch with mission work ; while, no doubt, the preached Word has been a balm for many a wound, a solace for many a care. This Session the fortnightly meetings have been of more than usual interest, and the hour spent has been a benefit to all who ittended. We are grateful to (iod for the return of Principal (irant, restored in health ; and have lieei; edified by his instructive and useful addresses on.Iapan. The Association has been encouraged to send a third missionary to the North-West, through the valuable aid given it by the Olive Hranch Mission Rand of this city. The Band desires at least a share in the work of a missionary in this most needy Held of labour. Special mention is also made of the annual gift of i^'A) stg. from the Colonial Committee of the Church of Scotland, for work in the North-West used and grateful to (J< rivate individuals, wl other expenses of our Honan Mission. In closing our report, we ask for the united prayers of all to Almighty Cod, for an out- pouring of His Holy Spirit upon our missionaries who go forth this summer, am^ especially upon our representatives— the Rev. Dr. and Mrs .Smith — in China, that they may be strength- ened and encouraged in their work for the Master. O.NT.VHIO KIKI.D.S. Mntniralchan and (Iriffith — D. Af'O, Gaudier, Jfinsionaj-y. This field lies along the Madawaska River, in the most southern townships of Renfrew, and is under the supervision of the Kingston Presbytery. The student bound for Matawatchan boards the K. & P. train at Kingston, and after a seventy-five mile ride steps off at Lavant station to view, perhaps for the first time, a backwoods country. As h'' looks around and wonders how anil when and where he is to go next, tliat feeling of loneliness, which was slightly anticipated w hen parting with college friends and thinking of the summer to be spent among strangers, now rises to its height. On all sides, the melting snow reveals the rough and ))arreii rocks which, with a little underbrush, a few charred pines and an abundance of mud. .seem at this time of the year to constitute the whole surrounding country. However, the ditliculties are not so great as they appear. Over yonder, above the door of a rather dingy ooking house, swings the inviting sign, " Traveller's Rest.' Here the night is passed, and next morning at five o'clock the stage driver, a burly old (ierman, who is not as rough as he appears, rouses his passengers and bids them prepare for the road. At six o'clock the shaking begins. and for twelve hours the journey is pursued, forty miles over corduroy, through creeks, up and down hills, with one wheel running on a ledge of ice, and the other sunk to the hub in mud, until at sunset Matawatchan is reached, and the missionary is welcomed to a clean and com- fortable boarding house. We are pleased and grateful to (Jod for the efforts put forth by the Bible Classes, Sabbath Schools, and private individuals, who have given such valuable aid to the medical and Appendix No. 1. XX vn. out- jially ongth- § ;— Now work begins in i-aruest. The people have been witiiout service all winter, and have become aeenstonietl either to visiting or to staying at home on Sunday, and conse(|Uently some of tliem do not bother coming out to church. These people have all to be visited as soon as jKJSsiiile and urged to attend public worship. They are always glad to see the mi8.-nary condng and eauer for him to return and " sup " with them, though tiiey are not always sdiauer to come out and see him at the Sabbath services. Ihit on the whole the people appreciate very nnich the efforts made in their !>ehalf, and after the careless ones have been visiteil a couple of times, the great majority of tliem will be seen nearly every Sabbath at the church services, many having three or four miles to walk to church. At Matawatchan, the central and most important station, service is held every .Sabbath, with nn average attendance of eighty, representing about thirty-eight families. l>ut some ot these families live two or three nules bacK in tiie bush, while the father is away working and only the mother and children are at iiome, so that freiiuently it is utterly impossible for any of them to come out to church. Sunday Schocd followed immediately the public service, but the attendance at it was not so regular, varying from twenty to forty, w ith about ten of these in the Hible class. The attendance at prayer-meeting every \\'ediu;sday evening varied from thirty to forty five, and this, we think, speaks well for a sparsely settled country district. At CJritiith, a station ten miles nortli of Matawatchan, services are held fortnightly, souictimes oftener, with an average attendance of twenty, representing seven fannlies. Itose Settlement was also supplied with services during the summer. The seven or eiglit families there are all Methodists, but as they were without a ndssionary and were desirous tiiat tlie missionary from Matawatchan should go back through tiie bush eight miles to them, lie did .so, knowing that he was sent to nunister to all who were without the preaching of tlie Gospel. There are many difficulties in this field, and progress is slow, yet there are signs of improven\ent The people are trying— though jierhaps not so hard as tlu^y niigl:t ilo— to help themselves, and we therefore should be willing to give a helping hand. If wo do our part prayerfully and faithfully, from this snuill, and, in numy respects, dark corner of tiio Master's vineyard, an abundant vintage will yet be gathered. "Though it tarry, wait for it ; because it will surely come, it will not tarry." WILItl'K, KTC. — JOHN HHAkPK, .MISSKIN.VKY. This is a field on the Kingston & Pembroke 1!. K., aVwiut seventy miles north of Kingston. Three stations, Wilbur, Ompan, and Mundell'sSchooliiouse, were supplied regularly tluringthe whole of last summer, and in addition service was iield fortnigiitly for about tiiree months at a schoolhouse in tiie Township of Canonto. Wilbur and Ompah are villages , tiie former contain- ing about forty families, the latter about si.N. The population of \Vill)ur is composed almost exclusively of miners and lumbermen with their families ; at the other .stations the people are chiefly farmers. Farming, however, is carried on under great difficulties on account of the rocky character of the country, and most of the farmers engage in some way in the lumber business during the winter. Without this many would find it almost impossible to "make ends meet." There are in the district reached by the student about l.SO families, of whom over 100 are Protestants ; l)ut comparatively a small proportion are Church members. Tiie Churciies most largely represented are the Presbyterian. Methodist, and Kpiscopalian. The student is very cordially welcomed by all ; and all Protestants turn out fairly well to the services. (ibiite a large number, however, are sadly indifferent with regard to spiritual things ; .so unremitting is the toil recjuired to secure a supply for ))liysical needs, that but little energy is left to supply the higher needs of the soul. The average attendance at the Sabbath services is about one-liftli of the Protestant population ; this is perliaps iietter than many otiier places, but it still leaves much to be desired. Sabbath Schools are carried on at all the stations, and in general with very gratifying success. There are no .strictly denominational scliools in the field, b\it all who are interested in the religious training of the young join together heartily in tiie attempt to make the school as successful as possible. The schools are managed entirely by the people tliemselves, the student simply giving advice and encouragement A prayer nieetii g is held on Wednesday evening at Wilbur, at which the attendance is aliout one-half of that at the Sabbath services ; in this surpassing most city congregations. 'i'he people are all very anxious to have the student visit them at their iiomes as often as possible, and very great good can be done in this way, if we always remember to be " about our Father's business." No other part of the work is so fruitful in good results as this. Williur and Mun- dell's School have had fortnightly supply during the winter, students being sent out from the College. About two-thirds of the families contribute to the support of the student, the total amount contributed for the year (including board) being Sl.Sti. NORTH-WEST FIELDS. WINLAW — T. n. .SCOTT, B.A., MISStONAKY. Regular fortnightly service was conducted at each of the four stations of this Iield during the five summer months, beginning with May. The population, numbering aiiout two hundred !i: i xxvin. Appendix No. 1. and fifty, is scattered over a tract of country t^t^enty miles .vjnare.

Hat,:. This field is situated on the Assiniboine and Souris Rivers. It receives its name from the Tiger Hills, which stretch across the southern part of the field. It is one hundred and twenty miles south-west of Winnipeg, immediately west of Glenboro', which is now the terminus of the south- western branch of the C. P. R. Fortnightly services were held at Souris Ciiy, Millford, Stockton, Hilton, and Pelican Lake. Union Sabbath Schools were conducted at these stations during the summer months. The Sacraments of liaptism and the Lord's Supper were dispensed on the 23rd Sept., by Rev. A. McD. Haig, of Cypress River, six members being added.

Services were con- ducted at Longlaketon Church, on the east side of the lake, and at Carsdale, a prosperous settlement on the south side of the Qu'Appelle Valley. The past season was a favourable one. The heavy rains in June and July brought the grain en rapidly and produced an abundant harvest. This district is well adapted to farming and stock-raising. Spring opens earlier than in the adjoining eastern province. The soil is good. The region to the north is a rolling prairie ; to the south, a level plain. Both cotigregations were largely attended by young men. The field is in many ways encouraging, and, with prosperous seasons, will soon become self-sustaining. Rev. Alex. Urquhart, of Regina, visited the field and dispensed the Sacraments. Number of Presbyterian families, 19 ; young men, 24 ; members, 40 ; average attendance.

A'. Hvrnt. This field lies along the rifjht bank of the Spanish River in Algoma, extending from the mouth upwards, a distance of about twenty miles. It comprises thiee stations, Uuswell's Mills at the mouth, Walford midway, and the Sable River Landing at the upper end. Walford is a farming settlement of growing importance, and is the chief station in the field. Services were held at this pl.icc every Sunday afternoon in the school-house. At the Sable Landing, which is merely h supply station for the lumber camps, a service was held monthly, and Buswell's Mills was visited tnrec times each month. All the services were well attended. The only Sunday School was at Walford. At Buswell's Mills services were held this year fur the first time. The work was carried on under many disadvantages, but there was every prospect of the station becoming a strong one in the near future. In October, however, the mills were destroyed by fire, and there is little prospect oT their being rebuilt. At Walford a tine church site was cleared and fenced in ; considerable aid was also secured towards the erection of a church, which it is hoped will soon be completed. Owing to the kindness of Mr. and Mrs. John Muncaster, the missionary was boarded free of charge. The Sacrament was dispensed at Walford in September by Rev. J, J. Elliott, B.A., of Spanish River Mills. Number of families, 56 ; number of Presbyterian families, 20 ; number of members, 11 ; total contributions, $103.95 ; total cost of field, $127.25 ; cost to Society, $23.30 ; contribution to Home Mission, $5.

K, Sinclair, This field, situated on the north channel of the Georgian Bay, comprises the eastern part of that formerly known as Blind River. It contains two stations, .Serpent River and Algoma Mills. Serpent River is engaged in the lumbering trade, having located in it the largest saw-mill in that part ; while Algoma Mills is a railroad village, being the division point on the new Sudbury branch of the C. P. R., and as such may be expected to increase in population. In the former a Sabbath School is in operation during the entire year ; and in Algoma Mills one was organized during the summer. Sunday services were conducted in each of the stations, as were also prayer meetings during the week. Considering the circumstsnces of the people, all these were well attended. Rev. Mr. Findlay visited the field early in July and dispensed the Sacrament of the Lord's Supper, this being the first lime that the ordinance was enjoyed in Serpent River.

This field is situated in the northern part of Parry Sound Distrir*, is feriile and well timbered, and is about forty miles distant from Trout Creek and the G. T. R. The English-speaking popula- tion numbers about one hundred and thirty, composed of various denominations, but all adhere to and unite in supporting our mission. The first sermon was preached by Rev. W. L. H. Rowand in 1882, but it did not become an independent field till 1887. The Sabbath School then organized was nobly carried on through the long winter, and faithful work was done. During the summer it formed a part of the work, which altogether consisted of morning and evening Sabbath services, with a Wednesday evening prayer-meeting at Loring, and fortnightly ser- vices at Wolf River and Caribou Lake. In addition to the Sabbath School, a weekly service is this winter being kept up by the ardent members of the field. Appendix No. 1. XXXl. e to vand ized and ser- this Uev.

B. — As will be seen from the reports of Presbyteries, a considerable sum has been expended by individual churches in city and town missions in addition to the above, but no proper estimate can be made of the amount. — W.C.] REPORT OF SUB-COMMITTEE ON AUGMENTATION. At the beginning of last year (ist April, i888) there were 136 aid-receiving charges on the list ; the whole number receiving grants during the year was 145 ; the number at present on the list is 130. The receipts from congregational contributions and donations during the past year have been $22,612 ; grants to Presbyteries and general expenses have amounted to $25,394 ; the deficit a year ago was $986 ; the total deficit is: now $3,768. This result is unmistakably disappointing. The demands on the fund for the year upon which we have entered will be about the same as for the past year, and a considerable increase in the contributions sent from many congregations will be required if the present scale of grants is to be maintained. The following tables shew in detai! (i) what has been done in each Presbytery during the past year, and (2) what progress has been made since the scheme was inaugurated in 1883 : — Table I.

Thus, the Presbytery of Quebec writes : — " The Augmentation Scheme has again proved a great blessing to the weak congre- gations of the Presbytery. This sentiment is echoed by many Presbyteries both eastern and western. In other cases, while no general reflections are made, figures are given which are of themselves a strong testimony to the benefits resulting from the Scheme. The Fund serves a two-fold object. On the one hand, it furnishes permanent aid to congrega- tions such as many of those in the Province of Quebec — small communities of Protestants hedged round by a solid mass of Roman Catholicism — which must, from the nature of the case, remain dependent on the assistance of the more favoured portions of the Church. On the other hand, it gives temporary help to young congregations, which will, in a short time, be self-sustaining and ready to aid others as they have themselves been aided. Some of the most liberal contributions ci' liouse rent in cities siiould be increased from SlOn to a sum not exceeding' ?.'W0 per annum. The Comiiiittee agrec'i, on motion of Mr. Macdonnell, to coniuienfi tlie overture to the consideration of the General A.-^senibly, anil to call xl. Appendix No. 1 the attention of the Assembly, also, to the necessity for additional regulations as to allowance for house rent in the country, and for the cost of keeping a horse where this is rendered neces- sary by the circumstances of the charge. In closing this report, the Committee desire to call the special attention of the General Assembly to the fact that the expenditure for Home Mission work has exceeded the contrihutiona from all xourcen by $4,745,85, and lion exceeded the contributions of congregations by $10,51 1.94 ; the sum of $5766.09 having been received during the year from the Glasgow F'ree Church Students' Society and the British Churches, and otner donations. This exceptionally large sum cannot be expected in the future. To partly meet the deficit, the balance remaining in the reserve fund has been taken, leaving still an indebtedness on the year's work of $745. Ko ! It is also to be noted that the expenditure for Augmentation has exceeded the contributions of con- gregations by $3,768.62 ! This condition of affairs calls for the serious consideration of the Assembly. In obedience to instructions, the Committee has gone steadily forward from year to year, extending its work with a degree of success that has been most gratifying to every well wisher of our Zion, But if the contributions of the year on which we have entered are not greatly to exceed the past, then it is quite clear that the Committee, instead of assuming increased liabilities, mtuit retrench without dday. It is for the Church, through its General Assembly, to say whether we are to call a halt in the great mission fields of the North- West and British Columbia —whether we have done enough for our countrymen in those distant and destitute regions, and whether we are prepared to allow others to come in and reap the fruit of our labours ? Also, whether the minimum paid the ministers of our Church who are assisted by the Augmentation Fund, is to be reduced ? The Committee have done their best to excite a deeper int rest in both funds, but so far as the contributions of the Church are concerned, they have been sadly disappointed in the response made to their appeals. In bygone days the Church has lost more of her members through want of care of them at the proper time, than our mis- sions have saved, with all the increased activity of later years. In view of this fact, and the encouraging aspect of the mission field, wliere vast territories have been occupied in recent years, retrenchment in missions, and reduction of stipend, ought not for a moment to be thought of.

(EASTERN SECTION.) Soveiity-eif^lit laborers were employed (lur'nj; tlic past year under the ,'li not larj,'e, is very hopeful. The sacrament of the Lord's Supper was dispensed twice during the summer. 'J"he tinancial returns were good considering that they weie meiely the sum of the Sunday collections, literally free Mill ofl'erings. Melvern S(juare. — Andrew Uoyd, catechist. Melvern Scpiare has a gofxl church seated for '2r)0. 'J'he nieuiliers until lately were connected with the Heformed l'resl)yterians of America. Having no legid^r sui)[)ly they have heconie disorgani/eay X'iew, Lewis Parker, catechist, I find the people a very hospitai)le people and ilevoted to church work as far as means will allow. I consider that attention should always be paid to them by Presbytery especially at liay View where our j)eople are more numerous a.j seen by the above report. 'JMiere is a small chance of building up a church ut Digby now. Prcslnj/i-r;/ nf St. ,/o/i». — Baillie and Tower Hill, J, K. Fraspi-, catechist. Tiiis field is quite strong rinanjially as well as in other respects and might easily be worked up into an organized congregation. The plan the Presbytery has in view now of uniting it with St. James congregation is, I think, impracticable. Krom what I know of the two places I airi quite convinced that they canr.ot l)e worked togetlier. Furtheririore the people of Baillie, &c., would strongly oppose such a union. Preaching should be given them in the winter as well as summer if possible. (jtuaco, Ike. -M, (i. Allison, ctiteehist. The sacrament of the Lord's Supper was dispensed at {juaco and Black River on September 9tb liy Rev. \V. Macdonald of Hampton. Five were admitte 1 to full communion on profession of faith and eight children were" baptized. Since the last missiouary was here tlie field has sull'ereii consideraljly from death of sonie and removal of others. A colLction amounting to ten dollars and thirteen cents was taken up for schemes of the Church. Repairs on Cross Roads Church during summer' §100. Black liiver district has suH'ered considerably in a financial point from depression in shipping interests, but may now revive. Dorchester, Gavin Hamilton, catechist. The ndssion in Dorchester is i'.i a promising condition, the attendance at the afternoon services being frequently between 30 and 70, but at the evening services the attendance consisted entirely of Presbyterians. Sack .'ille, although well attended to, so far ni. -isitation could do anything, and although receiving a fortnightly service is not in a promising condition, nor do I think the prospects favorable for working this tield in the future. Rockland is more hopeful, a*- ' the few I'resliyterians in that locality deserve much praise for their loyalty to the Church and their warm interest in the cause of religion. I organized a Sunday School at Dorchester, but the Met'.iodists at the other stations control the schools. The church at Dorchester is supported to some extent by persons of other denominations. Riley Brook, &c., Geo. M. Johnson, catechist. If properly attended to the Presbyterian church in Riley Brook, Dow Flat, Three Brooks and Tilley will most undoubtedly grow in numbers and strength. It is growing. Presbytery of Miramichi. — EacuminAo, E. J. Rattee, catechist. Christian life in the field is progressing, and a great number during the past few yeiirs, have come forward and made a profession of religion. There is no room for expansion as no new settlers come in, and thus the outlook for the field to become a pastoral charge is rather unfavourable. Forty-eight doUais were collected for the Schemes of the Church and the catechist was paid in full. Port Daniel, Wni. H. Hudunt, catechist. The Port Daniel school flourished and increased largely in attendance, I condi'eted it personally and taught the Bible Class. The number of teachers was 4 (besides myself) aiul for the last two Sabbath's 3. I held a church prayer-meeting every other Sabbath at the close of Sabbath School. And started a young peoples' prayer-meeting, 'i'his meeting wa.^ held every Wedesday evening at difierent houses and was very largely attended throughout the summer. I tried to make it a permanent thing so that on my departure its infiuence might still be felt. Whether this end will be attained or not I cannot tell. Prayer-meetings were a novelty in the place. And it was almost impossible to get the people to take part in them." Vacant charges that have called our r^en have in almost all instances advanced in the uiatter of stipend, and this has been the result of quickened interest in the cause of the Appendix No. 2. iii the and and eight and The liurch joung Vnises thing uned [most the If the gospel generally. X'acancies have also responded fairly Mell to the call for a higher remunera- tion for our preachers. The advance from $8 to $10 has, not fully, hut to a considerahle extent heen met by the places supplied. The fields in which ordaineil missionaries labor are under the careful oversight of the Presl)yterie8 and report their financial and statistical standing to the Assembly through the Presbytery as do settled congregiitions. The st^itions of the catechists hiive had such supply during the winter as IM-esbyteries couM give by means of their own regular stiitl", occasional visits of students, and in the Presbyterj' of St. Joiin a nussionary agent who visited several fields under the (iircction of the Home Mission Connnittee of that Presbytery. Mr. .Fohn (Jrierson ia the occupant of this position. The Presbytery appointed him after a lengthened probation which pioved him to be in eveiy respect just the mai) they re(|iiired to give them accurate information concerning evei'y corner (jf tlieir large field, and stimulate the various lucidities to do tiieir duty to themselves and the church. His salary is .^800. The W. H. M. Society of the Presbytery will aid in its payment, and tlie Committee have pr niised .$.30(1 per annum it necessary. Hitherto the most of his salary has been paid by the ditl'erent places he has visited, itnd the Pres\)ytery believe tiiat his work will result not alone in the truth being earnestly and clearly presented wherever he bibors, but also in better organization ami a steadier and 'reer How of conti ibiitions iur tiie support of the gospel.

And yet tht^y arc \cry tliauKful that the number is not larj^cr. It is smaller than ever bt^fore ; even last ycai, wiicn our balance was mf)re favorable, there were 10 conj,'regations tiiat plications for furtlu'r information. The lowest possible estimate of wliat Tuust be given to these, and necessary expenses, will bring up the total recjuiieil tins yeai' to fully .SiiOOl). Tlie Connnittee, at its semi-annual meeting, agreed to ask the concurrence of the Synod in a reiptcst to the Assemi)ly to give the Committee discretionary power to gradually re /'(/^fi according to the receipts of the year. Authority is therefore respectfully ask'r'd from Assembly to adopt either or both these plans, should the Synod give its consent. It is gratifying to repoi't that two congregations, formerly sup|)leiaented, namely, Lower Muscpiodoboit in Halifax I'resbytery and Or\\ell in the I'resbytery of P. E. Island, have this year developed into self-sustaining charges, giving the ndnimutn salary of §750 and a manse, and tluit among the other supplemented ciiarges there has been an increase in local support of about 1J.")00. .Since the scheme came into operati.)n 4 supplemented charges have been fostered into complete self-sup])ort, a few others are Hearing this honorable position, and there has been a total increase iu local suppoi't of .s.'J.'joO.Ott Another gi'atifying evidence of the educat- ing power of the scheme is seen in the contributions of the supplemented charges. The appendix shows that they gave last year 5il09O.0O to the Augmentation Fund, and $.'}'213.55 to the other schemes. The Kev. K. A. McCurdy, who has hitherto l)een the convener of your Committee, has for some years been pressing for his retirement ; and has this year declined to be again appointed to the ollice. The other members of Connnittee desire to express to the Assembly theii' deep sense of the invaluable services rendered by Mr. McCurdy to this scheme. He has spared no labor or time necessary to make it a success, and has been instrumental in bringing it to a highly satisfactory condition. The Committee reluctantly (:;oncur in his refusal to be re-apiiointed, and nonnnate the Kev. li. Smith as his successor in the convenership. The sanction of Assembly for i;he grants made, as appears in appendix ; and authority to deal with the deferred cases .lext fall, are hereby reciuested. P.espectfuUy submitted, E. A.

NEW HEBRIDES MISSION. Eighteen missionaries are now labouring on the New Hebrides group of islands. Three of these have very recently begun work. One of them, Mr. A. H. McDonald, who has settled on Malekula, arrived last summer, and other two, whose names we have not ascer- tained, sailed in the Day^priHg from Australia last April. The Australasian Churches, seeing their opportunity, are endeavouring to possess the land for Christ and His Church. Our own three long-tried and faithful standard-bearers have borne the conflict through tnother year with unflagging ?eal, and the Lord hath been mindful of them and blessed them abundantly. EFATE Is the scene of the laoours of Rev. J. W. McKenzie, of our staff, and Rev. D. McDonald, of the Victoria Church. Mr. McKenzie's report states that the year past has been one of the most encouraging and satisfactory that he has yet seen. The accessions from hea- thenism have not been numerous, but there has been much spiritual growth among the converts. They have been niore alive to the importance of a holy life, more sympathetic with their missionary, more ready to receive instruction, and more willing to go forth, when qualified, to teach the heathen on surrounding islands. Mr. McKenzie devotes much time and pains to the work of instructing young and old, and especially to training those who are to become teachers of others. He now enjoys the pleasure of seeing several of them actually engaged in disseminating the seed of triitli over surrounding fields of heathenism. He says : " An encouraging feature of our work is that so many of our people are willing to go out to labour on other islands. At present we have three teachers and their wives on Epi, under Mr. Fraser, and another couple as servants ; on Ambrini a teacher and his wife in charge of the station, at present without a European missionary ; on Malekula, two teachers and their wives, under Messrs. Leggatt and Morton ; on Malo, a teacher and his wife, a married couple and a boy as servants, under Mr. Landels. And to-day 1 was speaking to a young man to go to Aniwa, where Mr. Paton laboured so long Appendix No. 4. V. rtiul so faithfully, to take charge of the work there. This is in accordance with the reijuest of Mr. Watt, who has charge of that station. Five of these belong to the class of yonng men who received a special trainint;, being supported by friends of the mission in Mon- treal and other places. 1 am sure, could those who so kindly contributed to the support of these young men, only realize the assistance they have rendered to the Lord's work here, they would not consider that their money had been misspent. The rest of the class are employed on their own island, and are indispensable to the work." The year was .signalized by the printing of the "Peep of Day," for tiio use of the schools. Mr. McKenzie, while in Australia last year, saw the book through th i press. It is eageily sought after by the natives. Mr. McDonald has lately been in Australia, looking after the printing of the New Testament, the translation ttf which is the joint work of the two missionaries. The cost of printing, 4*500 stg., is meantime borne by the British and Foreign Bible Society, but the natives will soon repay the whole amount. Last year, on Mr. McKenzie's side of the island, they raised for the purpose 2,000 pounds of arrow- root, which will probably realize £50 stg. At Meli the missionary was in great peril of life more than once from the savagery of the heathen, but prudence and reliance on God procured for him deliverance. This large village still resists the Gospel, but the missionary has faith that God's time to favour c/en it is soon to come. Already a few have yielded to the truth — the first fruits, we trust, of a glorious ingathering. " Pray for us," cries the missionary, and the C(»mmittee, whilst lieartily responding, would echo the cry over all the Church, and call upon our people to give God no rest until He makes the savages of Meli obedient to the faith. EROMANGA. The work on this island was never more encouraging. The converts are doing all in their power to help on the work of the mission. At Dillon's Bay a collection was taken for the Foreign Mission Fund of our Church, and £9 Ts. 6d. were realized, and duly transferred to the treasurer. Under constant training they are growing in liberality and other graces with gratifying rapidity. Mr. Robertson, with his family, came to Australia in the Dayspring, early in the year, for the benetit of Mrs. Robertson's health. It is hoped that the change of climate and rest will restore her to strength, so that she may be able to return to her field and work next September. SANTO. Mr. Annand reports encouragingly from this island. The people are friendly, but tlieir ignorance is so dense that some time must be expected to elapse ere the best results can be seen. A good many are now coming under instruction, and a few attend Sabbath service, but no marked change lias yet taken place. Mr. Annand wishes to utilize native agency, and is making the best of such material as he has. The ditticulty oi securing suit- a'ole men is a source of much anxiety to him. He realizes that more harm than good may come of an unwise choice of agents. All our missionaries speak cheerfully of the advance of the good cause throughout the whole group. Mr. Robertson says : "It is simply delightful to note the changes in the field since we arrived in the New Hebrides in 1872. Encouraging reports come from nearly all the stations. Epi has a population of 10,000, and Mr. Eraser has fourteen teachers at work, and he asks for many more. " Mr. Annand says: "On Nguna, where Mr. Milne laboured seven or eight years without the least encouragement, there are now 3()0 members in full communion." In 1888 he baptized 120 adults and 57 infants. With Mr. Fraser on Epi, the work is very hopeful. God is faithful, who has promised, " My word shall not return unto me void." When the command is obeyed, "Son of man, prophesy unto these dry bones," the breath of a Divine power fails not to inspire life. VI.

Siie is invaluable to tin- iaii»8i(»n, and the 4*260 that we contribute to her support is well siiont. There is now monthly steam communication between Sydney atid two porta of the islands, viz. : Aneityum and Havanna Harbor, Efate. This is i boon to tiie missionaries and the general public, but it cannot supersede the necessity for the regular trips of our own vessel. NATIVE AUENT.S. V/orthy of special mention in connecticm with the mission, are the native teachers. The Rev. R, M. Fraaer, one of the missionaries, gives the following; account of their place and service throughout the group. We commend his appeal for the necessary funds for the support of these teachers to the members of our Church. Mr. Eraser says : "The extent of the work carried on by the instrumentality of natives may be con- ciiivod from the fact that they number no less than 100, and they are labouring on 20 different islands under tlie direction r'' 15 missionaries. These teachers are absolutely necessary to the carrying on of mission work in the New Hebrides. The European mis- sionaries are not ubicpiitous, and the islanders are scattered in little villages all over these mountainous isl.inds, in positions where the heat and inaccessibility make the visits of the misjionary impossible except at long intervals, while the missionary is necessarily much confined to one locality or centrt by the necessities of his work. Ho may have one or two languages ♦^^o reduce, Scriptures to translate, and t<,achei's to train, besides the multifarious teaching, preaching, advising and directing duties, which cluster around the centre of any aggressive Christian work. " Without native teachevs the aggress re power of a missionary is limited to compara- tively few villages, but with good teachers to station wherever they will be received, the Gospel is brought into contact with new people, and its purifying and life-giving streams flow through valleys that otherwise would be morally arid wastes for many years to come. In the teacher they liave one of their own colour, and with tlieir own modes of thought, bearing constant witness to the truth by his life, and daily instructing them out of the Word. "The native teachers are quite as much ' missionaries' as the Europeans. In many case3 they give up home and friends to go among strangers, speaking strange tongues and having different customs. Frecjue^itly they have much hardship to endure, and, being strangers, they are at tiist obj ;cts of superstition ; susi>icions are constantly roused by sickness or death among the peopL> with whom they dwell. Numbers have already won the martyr crown in the New Hebrides, and yearly some are in peril. ' ' The demand for native teachers increases each year, and before the islands are e van- gelized we will require .. force of at least 300 of them. They an teachers, according to the European idea, in that they conduct the daily schools ; but preachers and evangelists are words more descriptive nf the gifts of many of these men. The training, locating and supervision of these agents are parts of the missionaries' work which are fraught with great possibilities of good. "The missionaries at the older stations do much to help their brethren in newer fields by supplying them with teachers during the early stage of their work. This supply of teachers from other islands, or other districts of the same island, does much to break down the inter-island prejudices which exist, and to knit together in the Gospel the frag- ments of humanity which in the New Hebrides have been so much disintegrated by heathenism. " We have no hesitation in appealing to all who desire to honour God with their sub- stance, or Churches or Sabbath Schools which desire to have a share in the missionary work, to contribute towards the support of these native teachers, feeling confident that it Appendix No. 4-. VII. would be (litticult to tind a ])ettor investment fur £6 a year than in pro iding the salary of a native teHoher in the Now Hebrides. *' One word more. These toachors are only acquainted, :i8 a ruK;, with a few books of Scripture, and have not the opportunities which other Christians have of inoieasing their knowledge In their daily lifo they are continually in contact with the pec/pli- they instruct, and are exposed to many temptations, and 8(iiuo of them to dangers, frotn wliich their white brethren are free. Will the Lord's people cover them with the shield tjf their pniyers as they push forward, wielding the sword of the Spirit ?" The cost of this branch of our Foreign Mission work was last year 8»i, 517. HH. This includes everything — Mrs. (leddie's annuity, the allotment for the Ihiyspriiuj, salaries of uiidsionaries, and contributions by societies and friends for the support of native teachers. All the missionaries desire the Conmiittee to thank generous friends for timely help in supporting their mission schools. Let the gratitude be accepted and the gifts renewed with increased liberality, and with fervent prayer that every cent may oe transformed into a spiritual force for the enlightenment of the benighted heathen. Means thus provided may become a medium for the transmission of the light of our glorious Smi of liighteuus- uess to those sitting in the deep shadows of idolatry on the other side of our giobe.

A year ago we reported the resignation of the Rev. .John Knox Wright, on account of the illness of his wife. He left the field the first of May, and although the Committee has constantly sought fcr a suitable successor, we are still unable to report success. Once and again we seemed to have compassed our desire, but at the moment when everything seemed settled a break occurred in the arrangements and all our planning was dissolved. The missionaries at the other stations, with the aid of Mr. Ragbir, whom they placed there for several months during the summer of 1888, have kept up supply as regularly as possible, but they have done it at the expense of severe vHi. Al'I'ENDlX No. 4. toil. Roali/.inK that thin ntate nf mnttora could not bo iillowed to oontinuu, the Committee Acted on II HiifjKeHtion tlitit ciimu fniiu the tield, to provide temporary supply, nnd were fortunate in Hocurin^ the serviceH of Mr. Simon A. FraHur, it student who has h>id a |{ood deal of experience in various departments of Christian work. He will remain during the summer, or till a suitable successor to Mr. Wrij^ht has been obtained. In view of the liberality of the estate owners and their agents in supporting the mission, paying in some cases, as at Couva, the must of the missionary's salary, it was felt that to leave the tield lon^^er vacant wouUl not indicate due appreciation of the aid rendered by such con- tributors. The mission has always been much indebted to help thus kindly given, and the Church's thanks can best be expressed by providing ettioient workn'.en to use the funds as intended by the donors. Besides the vacancy in Couva, Miss IMackadder, teacher of the Tunapuna school, was obliged to vacate her post for the year to recruit her health. She visited many sections of the Church, and did much to excite or deepen interest in the mission, The collection.s taken at her meetings amounted to nearly ^1,000. Her strength, though taxed by her voluntary labors, was gradually restored, and she left Halifax early in Aj>ril, to return, by way of Montreal and Toronto, to her tield of work. In Montreal she was stricken down again— this time with diphtheria. By the good hand of God upon her, and under the most sympathetic and tender treatment of loving friends, to whom she and the Committee for her sake are deeply grateful, she is, at the time of writing this report, improving, and will pursue her journey as soon as her health is fully restored. In addition to these troubles which befell the mission, Mr. Morton was compelled to seek a change for some wee ks in Barbados, to ward ott' threatened trouble of a serious character. He returned to his work improved in health, but by no means as vigorous as the amount of work in his hands requires that he should be. These have been the trials of the mission during the past year, but while we pray God to remove them, we can now use them as a l>ack-ground to set off the brighter scenes of success and blessing which fill up the fore-ground of the picture of the year's work. The reports abound with descriptions of labour crowned with reward, and prayer fulfilled in showers of blessing. They are all so compact and complete that we give them with but very slight omissions. They furnish an answer to almost every in( and ntroni^.

These aie i)aid by the Government to bring in Indian children and instruct them in their own language. We encourage this movement and overlook their work. The extension of the work towards Arima and the addition af Mr. Hendrie's district to mine has very greatly increased the work, and more native agents must be employed to do jusuce to it. The burden of debt and the necessity of building at St. Joseph made is X. Appendix No, 4. desimble to keep dfiwn oven catechistn' expenditure as far as pussible. We close the year clear of debt, k teacher's house remains to be built at St. Joseph, and some painting to be done to preserve our buildings, but the expenditure on catechists for 1889 must be considerably increased if this district is to be efficiently cultivated. Though for months far from well, I have not been wholly laid aside at any time. Five places have had service every Sabbath, and two every alternate Sabbath, and all the work has been prosecuted on the usual lines. Seventeen adults and 16 children were baptized, G marriages were celebrated, and there are 36 communicants in good standing. With enough of trials to keep us humble, we have enjoyed abounding mercy during the yrir. God's promises have not failed us. With confidence and hope we sow the good seed of the kingdom, assced that God will give the harvest to the sower's sickle or to that of another. December Jlst, 1SS8. JOHN MORTON, KEV. K. J, grant's eighteenth ANNUAL REPORT, San Fernando, December, 1888. We are thankful that we have had health and strength for another year's work. Sickness and death met us at every turn, and c(mtinued whispering " the night cometh, " but we have been allowed to march along without interruption, and now to tell what we have seen by the way, I. We have seen good results from our educational eflforts and have been stimulated to extend this work. In doing this, however, we have been reluctantly led into a heavy expenditure, but trust to work it off without asking for a special vote. (1.) On Bku Venue Estate, the property of Sir Charles Tennant, we erected on a commanding site given us by the proprietor's representative, a neat, handsome building, for tl,e .^•um of £88.15 stg. This serves us as a place of worship in the midst of a large community (if Indians. In response to our petition, the Governor, Sir William Robinson, who is deeply interested in educational work amongst the East Indians, was pleased to establisii a school with Indian teachers. On Mfinnt Pleasant Estate, one of the four estates owned by Hon. Mr. Fenwick, one of the managers of our Central school, and an early and tried friend of our mission, a Government soliool has also been opened, and two of our young people are in charge of it. "^l his district, about nine miles distant from San Fernando, was untouched by our school operations. On GolcoH'Ja, the property of the Colonial Company, we obtained a house free of any rent for mission purposes, the only cost to us being the seating and furniture, and there a branch school has been opened by the Government, with one of our young men in charge. On Corinth, also the property of the Colonial Company, in a room given us by the estate, a school has been opened at the expense of our mission. Bonaventure house has been re-roofed, gallery has been enclosed, and general repairs etl'ected. ScDi FeriMudo school house is the largest item in our building account. Early in the year the dingy walls were brightened up with paint. Later the Inspector of Schools condemned our infant class room as not being in keeping with the rey Mr. Soodeen, whose faithfulness and sound judgment are appreciated hy all who know him. Mahindebeg, another faithful man, does good work in the Lengua quarter. He devotes half his fime to gathering the children and teaching in the school there, and the other half to catechiat work. His wife, who is a very intelligent woman, devotes part of her time to work among the women. Appendix No. 4. xiiu John Gobj^, who has been a school teacher since Mr. Morton's time, has been labour- ing as a catechist at Piparo since the month of August. Arrangements are being made to have him live there, so as to do the work more effectively, which will necessitate building, a small house. Thomas Padoreth, an earnest man who was ordained an elder in that quarter liiat year, assists Gobin in teaching from house to house. Daniel Mahabil and James Toolsee, the other elders, are also able and ready to help in every way possible. The Sabbath Schools at Princestown and lere village, in which Mrs. Macrae and M ias Semple take so much interest, are making encouraging progress. Although some ot :he lessons for the last six months have been somewhat difficult for the smaller children to comprehend, yet with the help of pictures, as a few questions in the several lessons at the end of the ({uarters have shown, all have, with few exceptions, grasped the central truths of each lesson. All our schools have done fairly well, 8«jme indeed have done excellently. Miss Semple's report, which is herewith submitted, will show what has been done in her school. The other teachers have worked to the best of their ability, and as they themselves grow in proficiency they will bring up the standard of their schools with them. The Government has placed an Indian Monitor in the Ward school at New Grant, who gathers from 18 to 20 Indian children into the school at a trifling cost to us. This number we hope to increase next year. The number attending the branch school at Elswick has been 8mall,|but good progress was made in learning.

Twelve couples have been united in marriage, and others are making application, which is a very important step in the right direction. We gratefully acknowledge the receipt of $50 from Rev. C. Ragbir, which was paid last year while he was in Canada, but received here too late for acknowledgment. S15 from D. McD. Clark, S12.50 from the W. F. M. Society, $7 from the Couva " Menxnial Fund," $80 from the Mission Book Fund. A box of clothing from the ladies of Knox Church, Pictou, and other contributions from funds too varied to specify. A pleasant year's labour is now ended, and although it is not what we could earnestly wish it to be, yet we have many reasons to thank (iod and take courage. We are conscious of many shortcomings in ourselves and failures ia our work. But although the flower which yesterday faded and fell to the ground shall never bloom again, yet fresh onts shall reappear. Thus mai.y precious opportunities of serving our Lord and Master in the year now ending have passed away never to return, yet fresh ones shall come again, and our failings in the past shall stimulate us to earnestness in improving them.

Wright retired from the work on account of Mrs. Wright's health, and returned to Canada with his family. The Rev. Chas. Ragbir, who had been two months with Mr. Wright in the Couva field, continued to labour there till che present time. He laboured with diligence and success. The Mission Council appointed Mr. Morton and myself to superintend ; he to take charge of the finames, and I to look to the schools, to correspond with the Education Office and assist Mr. Ragbir in any way he required. The Indian work has gone on very well. In June the Government rented our school room at Brechin Castle, and an arrange- ment was made by which the efficiencj' of the schools was promoted. Milton school was not working satisfactorily ; it gave Mr. Wright much anxiety, and we thought it best to withdraw it from the list of Government assisted schools, and whilst doing our best for the children, to attempt to do still more for adults, through an Indian teacher. From the San Fernando District, three Indian helpers have been transferred, who have proved very serviceable. The attendance at the English service supplied by Presbytery was fairly good ; but as at home a vacancy is not usually the season of prosperity, so it proved here.

Appendix No. 4. OKOPOUCHE. A large section of the field worked by the Pev. Mr. Grant has been erected into a pastoral charge, and the Rev. C. C. Ragbir, a native, educated on the island and in the United States of America, has been placed in charge of it. This is the first step towards what, wo trust, will soon beco.uo a sc^f-supporting native Church. Mr. Ragbir's salary is partially contributed by his people, supplemented this year by the Committee to the extent of £f*0. ST. LUCIA. Schools havo been kept up with increased interest on this island during the year. The labourers are all natives. They are occasionally visited and directed by one of the mis- sionaries from Trinidad. The work is growing, and the outlook for the coming year is very bright. There are 4 schools, with an attendance of 140, and 2 catechista, Messrs. Cropper and Sadaphal. The work, as planned for the current year, will require £100 from the Church, in addition to £150 given by the Government and the contributions of native converts. DEMEKARA. The work in Demerara was prosecuted with increased vigour and with growing tokens of success by Mr. Gibson, till suddenly in Noveniber he was cut oflf by death. The Com- mittee has recorded its sense of the worth of our deceased missionary, expressed the Church's deep and prayerful sympathy with the mission, and the bereaved family in tlieir trial, and sought counsel from (iod as to the course to be pursued in the future. After consultation with the brethren in Trinidad on the subject, and obtaining by correspond- ence the mind of the Presbyterian Missionary Society, it was resolved to take steps for the supply of the field at as early a date as possible. Arrangements for that purpose are now under consideration. The total expenditure on account of Trinidad and St. Lucia for the year was $11,884 ; and for Demerara, $1,103. The rest of the money necessary to carry on the work was contributed on the ground or sent directly by donors to the missionaries. About half the total cost of the mission has thus been provided for. SALAKIES. The salary of a missionary in Trinidad is £300 stg. with a house. Except at Princes- town, a considerable portion of it is contributed by the stations. The ordained native agents receivd £100 and a house. The catechists and teachers receive from $15 to $20 per month, according to ability. The Canadian lady teachers receive £83 6s. 8d. a piece. The salary of a missionary in the New Hebrides is £175, with house, and an allowance of £10 for each child under school ago, and £20 for each child at scho^V Native teachers receive $25 per year.

Baird, of our work among the Iiidianw of the Xorth-west, is so lucid and so compact, that we present it entire. Nothing needs to Iju taken fmni it or added to it. Yet thougii it is so complete, we append a ivw extracts from a letter from Rev. Hugh Mackay, our missionary at Broadview, giving some details which will be read with deep interest : — Our mission work among the Indian.s of Manitoba and tiie Xorth-W'est liati, dining the pa.st year, made steady progress. In some reserves the grov\th has l)een more marked than in others ; hut in all, the pa.st year lias been one of advancement, not indeed as great as our wishes, but as groat as from our experience we had any reason to e.vpcct. In some eases it has been beyond f)tn' expectations ; in all it has been full of encouragement to our faithful and (le\-ote(l mission- luies, to be "steadfast, inunovable, always abounding in the work of the Lord,' as they have liccn taught liy experience, " that their labour is not in vain in the Lord." While the spiritual necessities of the adult Indians have occupied the time and thoughts of fiur missionaries to as great an extent as ever before, our chief woi'k has been with the yomig. Oiu' confidence in the wisdom of tlie course indicated ayear ago has been deepened. It is in the school, and especially in the industrial school, that the great work of the Clnucli for the eleva- tion of the Indian nnist be done. In the industrial school the children are withdrawn for long periods — and the longer the better — from the degrading surroundings of their pagan homes, and placed under the direct intluence of all that is noblest and best in our Christian civilization. They are taught the elementary branches of an English education, ancl in addition, the Ijoys are trained in farm work, tilling the ground, and oaring for cattle, and in some instances in the elements of carpentry and smithing, and the girls in knitting, sewing, baking, cooking, itnd general house-work, and all are taught to sing the psalms and hymns of the Church in Ku'dish or Indian, sometimes in both, and to connrdt passages of Scripture to memory : \\hile the day is begun and ended with reading the Word, and prayer round the common family altar. From scenes like these results of the best kind are springing, and we may confidently expect that the ■.'eneration trained under these inlhiences will be immeasurably superior to their parents aiul that in a comparatively few years our work as ..issionaries to heathen Indians will l)e .iccoinplished. An im^xjrtant feature of our mission work during the jiast year has Ijcen tlie exten:-tiou of our industrial school system to fields where no such schools previously existed. And thi> will naturally occupy an important place in our report. Three of these schools were openecl during the past year at Hirtle, the Crow Stand, and the File Hills, respectively. The rirst of these v/as opened early last October, in the town of I'.IKTLK. This town is beautifully situated on Bird Tail Creek, an afHuent of the Assiniboine. It is at a convenient distance fi'oni a number of reserves under the cai'o of oiu' Cluu'ch. such as Okaiiase, bird Tail, Way-Way-See-Cappo's, and Silver Creek.

The school was opened in February last The Indians of this group are in a very backward .state, and as was expected, there lias been great difficulty in inducing them to send their children to school. The ditiiculty has been in creased by the efforts of the liomaii Catholics to attract the chiltlien to the industrial school near FortQu'Appelle A beginning, however, has been made, and we are hopeful of better things- The number of families under Mr. Campbell's care is sixty. The conclusion of his report is given in full ; " So far, our work has been rather discouraging, but 1 am in good hope that the favoui able turning point has arrived for our school. 1 have the promise now of four more pupils, and have secured an interpreter who is popular with the Indians, and liighly spoken of by others He is himself the son of a Cree missionary, well known to old timers hi the North- West, Mr, Pratt, of the ( 'hurch of England, at Touchwood, who died about a year ago.

The average attendance of tlie school for the past quarter was twenty-five, anVe gave dinners to many, but .so cunning have they become that, as soon a^ Itssons begin, they run away." There is certainly naich to try the faitli and patience of a teacher in work such as this. But wliatever view may be held about the educational effect of this school, there can be no difForence of opinion in regard to its value as a missionary agency. OfHcers of the government, and visitors, who have had an opportunity of noting the oour.se of events on the reserve, bear united testimony to the high value of Miss Rose's work among the Iiidiuns, especially among the women.

That the prejudices of the parents against the school are fast dying out, and the children themselves are taking more interest in their studies. He has secured the services of Mr. John Thunder, a t'hristian Sioux from the Bird Tail reserve, and by his aid several young men have learned to read and write their own language, a cla.-s for that purpo-ii meeting in the evening in the house of one of them. Sabbath services, with an attendance ot about forty, are h.eld. Mr. McLean says: "Those who attend behave well and are verj uttencive. The children help in the singing, with whicli their parents appear well pleased, .'^ome of them acknowledge their ignorance and their willingness to be taught, but more than tlii.s 1 cannot say.

The prayer nieeting and Sabbath school, "S'oung Men's Christian As.sociation and Woman's Foreign Mission Society, are kept up mainly by the Indians themselves, Mr. McArthur, on account of the distance of his home, and the pressure of Hon.e Mission \\'ork, being able to givelnitlindted assist- ance. The Indian congregation contributed Ijol to the Schemes of the Church during the year, A'20 of this being given by the Women's Society.

Have we not much in our report for the past year to enci ui - age ? Is there not in this report a command to the Church to press on in work among tin- Indians of our cotmtry, and to bring as soon as possible the pagans (jf Canada under the influence (tf civilization and the power of the fJospol ? The schools at Pelly, at liinle. at Round Lake, at Musoowijetung's, and at File Hills, need assistance, and other Hchool> call for help. " We have had .at Round Lake an average of about thirty for the year ; about twenty of these are children of treaty Indians. We have had some good meetings among the Indians. Our Sabl>atli School at the Mission is always interesting. On May H)th we had communion at one of our appouitments ; three of our scholars united with us on prcjfession of faith, aiul I have no doubt some others will unite with us the next time. One of oiii scholars is now assisting Mr. Moore in his work. She is a nice Christian girl, active and able t(< support herself, and has a good influence over the people of that Reserve. Anothei of our scholars, who first made profession of faith in the Lord Jesus with us three years ago, is now settled in a home of her own. With a trembling hand I placed her name on our communion roll. The hi 'and has turned Catholic. Every influence has been brought to bear upon her, still she remains a Protestant, and we trust true to the luinciple.s of faith in the Lord Jesus Christ. She is kept by the power of a King. " We had about seventy Indians present ac our communion, and about fifty at another meeting we had the same day. " We are much encouraged by the sympathy and support given to us by our Agent. Col. McDonald, and the farm instructors, Mr. McNeil, Mr. Nicol, Mr. Sutherland, and Mr. Cobourn. The Colonel is enthusiastic in his work, and longs to see the poor Indian rise. Mrs. McDonald is not behind — noble hearted and kind to this p )or people. She i.-> not afraid to throw open her beautiful parlor, and allow the people to gather thereto worship. A few Sabbaths ago one of our little girls sang a solo at the close of the meeting : then she sang in a clear and distinct voice that hymn, 'God be with you till we meet again.' I often heard her sing this hymn at the school, but to see her stand there before the people and sing with such effect those words, I could not listen and not be moved. The sweet voices that a short time ago sang to unknown gods now sing the songs of Zioii. Last Sabbath we had a meeting of about sixty at the house of an Indian.

" I'ro.^perity, etc , of tho Lord's work in any p irt of this round world, is at once made knovn to in-eachers and students. Life is s!lor^, S'O we want practical, iiractical teaching. A native misii.stry is the hope, and only iiO|'c, of the Lord's work here, and I believe in every heathen land. It must come tf) that, however slow people in Christian lands may be in grasi)ing the idea. " iUit, as always, 1 refer ])articulariy to this held, for men on the ground ought to know l)est. The heartiness with which all join in the College work would cheer every Chris- tian in Cauiida, of whatt "er name, if only here to see. 1 address them generally live times a day, and have meetings ev.ry night, Ijesides preaching live times on Sabbaths. The students, alco, have daily practice speaking on the platform, so there is no awkwardness about them when addressing a crowd." It is cheering to know how highly the Bible itself, as the life-giving Word, is prized by preac'ii'fs .aad students in Formosa, and what they are willing to do and give in order that they iuay become ]iossessed of it In connection with what we are told about thi.-i. we obtain an interesting glimpse of the work of colpc>rtage on that island. Ur. Mackay writes thus : — " Some tiuie ago a olporteur in connection with the American Bible Society came here and brought with him sample copies of well bound Bible j, which he could sell to preachers at §2 a vol., just what we were longing for during the past dozen years. It was Chinese New Year time, and the preachers denied th-^mselves many necessaries in order to purchase. So an order was sent to Shanghai, and the Bibles have come, bound in morocco leather, printed on splendid paper, and furnished with e.xcellent maps. Each preacher has novt' a Bible which will last his lifetime, bought by himself as the result of self-denial. The joy of the colporteur was unbounded. Several students also bought out of their small allowance of ^4 per month, i «., a man gave half his month's service to purchase a well ' got up ' Bible. •'Living is high here now. All the shoes, stockings, caps, etc., come from the mainland. 1 say living is high here, and it was quite an act of self-denial for these men to give out of what is really a jiittance for the services rendered by them to the Church. The colporteur is here still, selling cheap Scriptures, and all our people are supplying themselves, as it is a good chance. He has also many valuable tracts, etc. He is from Finland and is a Lutheran. It is the Bible, above all things, that must be studied in this heathen isle. Dark clouds of superstition are about its, near us, yea, around us. ' Fly abroad, thou mighty (Jospel, win and concjuer ; never cease.' " Many throughout our land who have been eagerly incjuiring what is being done for the benertt of the w in Canadian dollars ; 81,000 e.jual !i be met by the general fund. Kooms are rented and cleaned out, perhaps a partition torn down. Arrangements at first are generally of the very barest : platform, windows, etc., dispensed with, but seats of some description are necessary. These in chapels throughout the field are benches without backs, e.ich simply a narrow plank supitorted by foiu' legs. l^esides seats, a small table or some kind of a stand ; and in the preacher's a[(artments, consisting generally of f)ne or two small rooms, at least one bedstead cind a table are needed. A suitable preacher sent involves sometimes the moving of two or three, and also reciuires th- taking of another man from the College. Thus, in opeiung a new station are included exjienses fi>v rent, repairs, furnitui'e, moving preachers, and th.e salary of an additional preacher." Many in(|uiries have been made as to the expenditure incurred in the removal of preachers. About that (No. 5), Mi'. .lamieson gives this clear explanation : " In the present stage of the mission it is necessary, if the work is to prosper, that there be some- times removals and recalling of preachers to the College. Missionaries usually travel by whatever mode is customary in the country where they are situated, whether by railway train, horse and wagon, ox cart ov sedan chair. Dr. Mackay has travelled throughout the island on foot, but few indeed could do that in this cbniate. It is impossible for the wives of preachers and their little children to walk. 1. -chers, when they go from one station to another, though not moved for that purj)ose, ,.';' act as travelling evangelists, and their wives do much good in meeting and conversi , .th women, both converts and heathen, at halting places on their way. The two couriers who take letters and monthly supplies to all the chapels, also act as travelling evangelists. They are trustworthy men purposely appointed to the position they occupy, because in it they have many oppor- tunities of helping the Church." We may be assured, that under Dr. Mackay's teaching, preachers and students will not be trained to useless outlay or to luxurious habits. Mr. Jamieson adds that the removal of preachers from place to place will become less and less, not more and more, as years pass away. Mr. Jamieson likewise refers to Oxford College and the girls' school, and bears warm testimony to the efficiency of the work done in them : " There are now and have been for a long time a large number of preachers and students at the College, whom Dr. Mackay keeps very hard at work. Some of them go out to near stations to take charge of xxvni. AiM'ENlJlX No. 4. Sabbatli services.

Hesides the aliove extracts concerning the subjects and modes of study and (jthet missionary operations, we cannot refrain from giving another. Furnishing an example of a prt^aching tour.

The puldished leti.ers of i\lr. and Mrs. damiesou have been read by tin- Church at large, in point of fact they had been sent to newspapers, by Mr. .iamiescm, for j)ublica- tion, bef'jre they came into the hands of the Committee. In these the point mainly insisted upon l.\y the writers was their own inability to do anything towards advancing the work of the mission. It was ;isked by many throughout the Cluu'cli wh}' they should remain, and why the Committee should continue them in a field in which rhe/ *-'ie.Mse!ves said, with such eniphasis an ■ ciatorv i''^-.' -encivs to his work, togeth.er with the silence so largely observed by Dr. Al'I'ENDlX No. 4.

Letters subseiiuently received from Formosa in reference to the above did not appear to tlie Committee to ati'ord sutticient reason for changing their judgment. The following resolution, tlierefore, with much regret, was sent to Formosa : "The Committee, having lieard read letters from Dr. Mackay and Mr. Jamieson in reply to the Committee's resolu- tion of the ^I'lrh September, 1888, . . . after mature deliberation, while dis)H)sed to give tiill weight t(j the views tlierein expressed with reference to (in favour of) tiie continuance of Mr. Jamieson in the work of the mission in Formosa ; yet, in view of Mr. .lamieson's • iwn emphatic acknowledgment of his inability to accjuire the language, and his reiterated coiifessi(jns of incompetence for the work of the mission, made not onlj- to this Committee, but to the Cliurch at iaige, find no sutticient reason to fall from the resolution {to which they had come in December, 1888) to recall him. The CNjiiimittee, while deeply regretting the necessity of such a step, and sincerely sympathizing \ ith Mr. Jamieson, . cannot, in the interest of the work itself, do otlierwise in the circumstances than recall him ; ami. without determining the date at which his relation to tiiis Committee shall cease, direct that arrangements be made for his leaving rh.; held not h'.ter than tlie 1st oi August next." The Convener was at the .same time instructed *' to correspond with Dr. Mackay and .Mr. Jamieson, and request tliein to give all the information in their power ies[)ecting the kind of work Mr. Jamieson is. or can be, employed in carrying to auvance the cause of Christ in the mission. The Committet g to lay before the As- sembly a fevi extracts from letters which, they think, warrai iiem in taking this mure hopeful view. Di. ilackay writes : " .Mr. Jamieson is not learned Cliinese scholar, us tlie term is commonly understood, butliL came here as a mi- 'iiary to preach the (iospel. Nt)W ho knows a sufficient number of Chinese cliaractors, an i ha.'; a sufficient liold of the native dialect, to enable him to do what ho came for. If t >" years ago he had only taken advice, and put into [iraj'^ice what he had learned, by th. time he would have been an efficient speaker. The truth is, he kept on at books instead of practising what he knew. As it is, the daily practice, which is the thing needed for the accjuisitioii of any foreign '.oiigue, is every week making Mr. Jamieson more at liberty in the language. We notice- iditFerence eseii within this year. Mr. Jamieson rim do what he is doing now, namely; ar, any chapel in the tield, with an open I5ible, e.\[)lain the (jlo,H)>el to the people, and tiiis he uill be able to do with more and more freedom to himself and more profit to the hearers as lie grows in jiractice. Thus, at a chapel («) he can exhor, nd encourage the preacher, and be heljiful to him in many ways ; {h) he can assist preacliers, elders and deacons in lookii'g after in([uirers and examining them ; {f) bapti/,e converts ; ('/) dispense tin; •sacrament of the Tjord's supper ; (' ) jireach to the people : in a word, do anything to helj) liuild up the wetwoeu us ; no clashing, no ii'rita- tion, no ' temper ' during all these years. . . . it is one tiling for a fellow-labourer to think a certain way of ac(|uiring the language, etc., the best — a way wliicli may not com- mend itself to another. It is a dill'erent thing to ' ([uarrel.' It is one thing to be grieved and burdened ; it is an(-ther tiling to liave a 'missionary quarrel.' 'I'iie mis.sion iiere was never more orderly, vigorous and prosjierous." Letters have been received fioui I'astors (Jiam (A-Hoa) and 'IVm Ue, with earnest recpiests for the continuance of Mr. Janiieson in the uii.ssion. 'i'hey tell that " not long since T'astor (Ji'ini and Mi. .lamieson went to the east coast and visited many of the stations." •' Now," tiiey add, " people have bs;en here (at Tamsiii) from liie.se places, and said that all were mucli i>]eased with Mr. .lamieson tlii.s time, and understood his short addresses. The last time he visited them they said he was not understood well. The change is due to dt'dy practice. Mow much better if he had wakened up two years ago and done as he is now doing I He is now improving every week and will continue to imjiiove." And 'liey conclude, .saying : " With a!' here, we hope you will permit him to remain here to help us." In view of these statements, and many otliers e(|ualiy stri>iig and clear, the Commit- tee, with a deep feeling of relief and of gratitude to (iod, feel tliemselves warranted in re- -scinding their resolution recalling Mr. Jamie.son, and in agreeing to his continuance inhi.s present tield of labour for a yciar, in ilie liojie that his iitiiess for jiernviuent work may be made manifest and that lii . " protitiig may afip-ear unto all." Tiie great and long con tinued anxiety with whicii this case lias, during the pasi few uumtiis, been considered by the Committee, will Ijc readily understood. With earnest deliberation and iirayer for Divine guidance, they have sought t(j be led in the right way. .\nd they are assured that the Assembiy will hear, witl. much satisfaction, of the conclusion to whicli, with fuller infor ination and with increasing li'.dit. they iiave come. (2) HONAN. This held has not yet been occupied, but our missionaries are diligently preparing' tliemselves, by the study of the language and otherwise, to enter upon their work here al the earliest moment advisal^le. It is expected that in September next a footing may be gained, though at first only the male missi(niaries will take up their residence in that pro vinco, the women and children being left in Shantung until the attitude of the people towards our work is fully tested. At present Mr. (ioforth and his family, D'. and Mrs. McClure and Mr. MciJillivray au- atP'iingChia Cliuang, in the Province of Shantung, about 450 miles fj'om Chefoo. Here the American Hoard tif Commissioners of Foreign jMissions have for some years hod a stii tion and are carrying on various b.iuiches of Mission work, and 'vliilc mir missionaries are devoting their main attention to the acquisition of the Honaii dia. 't of the language, they are, at the same time, endeavoring to obtain an insigiit into the inetliods of carrying on the work among the people. Dr. Smith is still at Chefoo, studying tlie laiigunge, and in the Mission Jlospilal of the American Presbyterian Hoard, ac(|uiring skill and tinining in the Appendix No. 4.

Then people at home cannot fully .syiivpadiiso in the keen disappointment when the missionary is able to converse fairly well, when he attempts to tell .some poor man about .lesus, and tind.s that he is unable to ])ut tlie .simplest gospel truth with any degree of fluency or intelligi- bility." These brief extracts will shov,' us how much our ;> • >sionaries need our .sympathy ;viid prayers to support them in the might}' task which they have undertaken. Then, too, they have before ihein when they enter into Honan unknown dangefs to brave. As we have said, the male missionaries propose to enter into tliis ti(!ld alone, ieaviu'.' the ladies arnl their household.s behind. Mr. (loforth writes with reference to tiiis as follows : — " You may notice that our present plan provides for leaving the wouitn .and ciiildicn hehinb Thi.s is deemed wisijst until T^he people .ire reconciled to our living among them. We >'xpect opposition, as is latural in breaking new ground. The men can at bfst withstand a siegi or, if the wocst comes, (.-.scape. We are not afraid. I'he Lord of Missicjus will go before uh. Wo are to bring the Light of Life into a land of midnight darkness." The Church will with anxiety, buta.ssured ho;ie, follow the movLnients of our nii-i.sion aries in this field drring the coming year. On till: 7th of rebruaiy lust D)-. McClurc was married at the Mission Chajjel, Canton, to Miss Baii'd, a very efficient worker under tlie American lioard. We ;u'e rejoiced to welcome Mrs. McCiure to our field.

A gentle and friendly fellow-labourer I had found him, kindly and considerate to those under him ; an earnest student, and with more will than strength to work." These lov- ing words of Mr. Caini)bell are quite in accordanc;; with the estimate which the Connnit- tee had formed of Mr. Builder's character and work, as will l)e seen from the followinji resolution passed in reference to his decease : " In the early death of the Rev. Joseph Ruiider, B. A., rhe Church has lost (me of her most faithful sons, as al.so a very devoted and zeah)us missionary. His death occurred ou the 14th November last, whilst on his way south for the purpose of recruiting his health. " Mr. Builder possessed tliose (|ualiti(js of mind and heart uhich rendered him a kind friend, a genial companion and a faithful minister uf .losus Christ. ' He was designated and ordained to the Mission field of Central India about live years ago. He jiroceeded thither and did work which was much valued by this Committee. He was coiu|iclled to rel urn to Canada througlx severe illne.s-s. He laid down his chosen work with the fond ]iii|>e that he would be permitted to return again after aseason of rest, but the (ireat Head of the Ciuirch had ordered otherwise, and, whilst we record these facts in connection with the life and recent lamented deatji of our brother, we desire to t^xtend the mo^t .sincen' and heartfelt sympatli}' to the bereaved widow and family — com- luiuiling them to the care of our Heavenly Father, who is a Father to the fatherless and the Huh.l!.iiid (pf llie widnw," A.'i viiay well be supposed, the strength of all our missionaries in Central Lidia has been greatly oveilaxed in conseciuencu of th death of Mr. Builder, and the absence of Mr. Appendix No. 4. XXXllK Wilkio, who is atill in Canada on furlough. Hore it may bo said in referonco to Mr. Wilkie tliat, instead of rosting, as tho Coinniitteo havo uarnostly asked him to do, ho has boon exerting himself i <> the utmost to cotnply with the many calls addressed to him from all parts of the laud for lectures and addresses concerniu'4 the work in India. Much interest has been excited by the visits of Mr. and Mrs. Wilkie to many (juarters ; and it is sincerely hoped tliat, while thoy havo not been resting, they may at any rate havo boon greatly benefited by change of air, scene, and work. Three men would have been required to do ethciently the work that Mr. Campbell has been compelled to undertake. He says : — " When the injunctions of the Council and the calamities which came upon our Mission throw upcm me tho care of this station (Indore) n addition to that of Rutlam, soon to be added to by that of Mhow, this did not moan tha une man would do tho work of three ; it could only mean that while all the work must suffer greatly, no one station should bo closed, but tho loss bo diviiled among all. " To keep faith with the young men who had joined tho classes, it was necessary to carry on the College and High School, and that involved living here and giving most of my time to this work ; the press, the Sabbath school, the services on Sabbath and Thursday evening and general 3U[)ervision havo also taken their share." Concerning tho work of the College at Indore, his views seem to be in full harmony with those of the Committee. " I cannot," says ho, " agree either with those who make schools and colleges the highest form of Mission work, or with those who, going to the opposite extreme, denounce them. The man who believes that tho Lord has vouch.safed to call him to the exalted work of preaching His gospel, may well shrink from stepping down t(3 do anything which would take his time from that ; and the Church should guard against spending on educational machinery an undue proportion of the funds placed in he.i trust. Yet the teacher who is of true missionary spirit has also a grand oi)portuiiity, and if educational work be carried on with this end ever kept full in view, it may bo the means through which tho Gospel can be daily preached, in favourable circumstances, to an important class. The Church's share of the co.st should be projjortioned to the really evangelistic work done ; the merely educational should be mostly met by the Government and by fees." This cf)mpletely agrees with the recent resolution of the Committee : " That in view of the circumstances under which the College classes at Indore were opened in atfiliatiorj with the University of Calcutta, and the importance of higher education in the hands of Christian men as a means of leading the heathen to the knowledge of Christ, the Commit- tee, having anew considered the (juestion of continuing the College classes, do resolve to proceed with the College work already begun at Indore. Tho Committee at the same time instruct the missionaries who may be in charge of the work to take special care to employ as far as possible only Christian teachers, and to see that the teaching is pervaded by Christian influences." That the teaching is pervaded by Christian influences and that some of the teachers are actually engaged in Christian work, over and above that of teaching, we learn from Mr. Campbell's report : " Another thing which I have earnestly desired, and value highly, is the work done by Christian teachers out of school. Besides tlioir private intercourse with neighbours, Mr. Shomo, Mr. Chanmukamand Mr. Caleb have helped to conduct the regular services, and have spoken occasionally in adjacent villages. Mr. Chaninukam and Mr. John have lieen very busy preparing for examinations, and they and Mr. Shome. coming from Cey- lon and Calcutta, have to learn Hindi as a foreign language, but after another year they will all be able to do great good in this way." "Personally," says Mr. Campbell, "so long as I am graciously permitted, I wish to be wholly engaged in preaching Christ, and have grudged tho time spent in other work, even when I have judged it necessary." With all that he has had to do, we do not won- 3 XXXIV. Appendix No. 4. der, although wo see that it is with a fooling of regret that ho adds, " Personally I have succeeded in doing but little village work." NEEMUCH. Like Mr. Campbell, Mr. Wilson has boon overburdened with work. But under the strain, ho writes cheerfully and hopefully : " In Noemuch tho work has boon continued much in tho same way as was detailed last year. The Sabbath evening service for tho Christians has l^een well attended by non- Christians also. liut because of ray fro(juont absence at Ujjain and in the district much has boon left to tho helpers. " Tho Sabbath schools, of which there are four, have been conducted with interest Puring tho year. In all about 100 children receive instruction every Sabbath, based on the International lessons. " Tiie Bible is also regularly taught in all tho day-schools, of which there are four for boys and one for girls." " Wo have not," says Mr. Wilson, " boon in a position to spend as much time in the district as wo had hoped. But we succeeded in overtaking a very important region which wo had hitherto not boon able to visit. We went to llampura, a city of some 30,000, tho second city in tlio Indoro State, and made it tho chief centre of our work. It lies thirty- six miles to tho east of Noemuch. On the road leading to it are three largo towns, at each of which we camped for a few days, that wo might show tho people tho way of life. " At Rampura, the chief city of the district, we had a most encouraging reception from tho people, who were disposed to listen without disputing or cavilling. The priest of the Borahs, a sect of Mohammedans, showed us much kindness, frecjuently itiviting us to his house, when, after listening to our message, he treated us to tea, and decked us with garlands, in turn drinking tea with us at our tent. His attitude secured a favourable hearing for us on tho part of his followers." *' In the bazaar we had large and attentive audiences, morning and evening. In the afternoon a service was held at tho tent for tin* native helpers and the recent converts whom I took with me to instruct and train. Owing to the importance of Rampura, and the favourable opportunities of preaching there, we confined our attention almost wholly to it, and had to leave most of the surrounding villages unvisited. When Central India is sup- plied as it should bo, a Missionary will be stati(tned here to offer the bread of life to the perishing multitudes of the city and the regions round about. We were obliged by the necessities of the work at Ujjain to cut short our work in this interesting field and return to Noemuch." In this tour Mr. and ]\Irs. Wilson were accompanied by Misses Beatty and Rodger, who carried on work among the women, distributing medicines, and teaching as they had opportunity. The Assembly and the Church will rejoice with Mr. and Mrs. Wilson in the blessing that has rested upon their labours, as shown in this first paragraph ; and they will sympathize with thorn in the bereavement of which tho immediately following paragraph tells : — " It is a matter of deep joy that four young men have been enabled to profess faith in Jesus by baptism. By caste, one was a Mussulman, one a Rajput, one a member of the writer caste, and one a Brahmin. We are much encouraged by their consistent walk. The Brahmin and his friend (jf tho writer caste had travelled far, in (piest of salvation, visiting the sacred places of pilgiiniago. But hearing at .Tawad of .lesus as the Saviour, they came to Noemuch to learn more fully concerning the Way. His convictions deep- ened, as did those of his companion in search ; and on New Year's morning, they along with two others who had f" ision staff and the residents. It is likely that Mrs Buchanan — Miss Mackay — .n her hu sband, establish a mission amo.ig tho Bheels — Dr. Buchanan's chosen field of labour. SCHOOL IN INDORE CITY. "During the absence of Miss Ross on furlough the school has been under the super- vision of Miss Oliver. It has been removed to a moro convenient part of the city, and two teachers have been added to the staff, also a woman to call the children. The native teachers employed there are remarkable for patience and energy. The average attendance for the past six months is above seventy. Tliore are good classes in the third and fourth books, and si.x girls have begun the study of English. They road tlie daily Scripture lesson in Matthew (most of the girls having brought an anna to buy the (iosp'^l of Matthew for themselves), and last year they committed to memory the Lord's Prayer, the Beati- tudes and other parts of the Gospel. This year they are taking up the (iolden Texts. SCHOOL IN UJJAIN. " There are two girls' schools in Ujjain, opened through the efforts of Miss Beatby and Miss Oliver.

Here forty girls are taught, either in Hindi or Urdu, by the woman who has charge of the Dispensary, assisted by the wife of one of the teachers in the boys' school. The children in these two schools are only beginning to learn, but the prospects are encouraging. KUTLAM. " A prosperous and promising school has been conducted at Rutlam for some time under the superintendence of Mrs. Campbell, who has also accepted an invitation to teach in the Zenana of the Prime Minister. NEEMUCH. " Mrs. Wilson continues to superintend a most successful girls' school at Neemuch, besides taking the oversight of Zenana visiting. Mrs. Wilson has proved a most valuable correspondent. A competent lady teacher is urgently needed at Neemuch and also a lady doctor. MHOW. " Miss Stock bridge teaches a high-class school in Mhow, established in 1880, now large and flourishing. A report of this school, by Mrs. Campbell, appeared in the Novem ber Letter Leaflet. There are 107 on the roll. Average attendance 8eventy-eii,ht. Miss Minnie Stockbridge teaches at Pension poora, and Miss Katie is also at work in the vicinity." Mr. Mackelvie, one of our recently appointed missionaries, is now in charge of the work in this place. He bears highly appreciative testimony to the service rendered by the Misses Stockbridge, who have for some time laboured with much diligence and success in the Mission there. This is his statement ; it lets us know how he himself rejoices in anticipation of the work to which he has given himself : ' ' As Mhow was the station of all others in our Mission where a medical man was least needed, with the full approval of the Council I selected this district for my life's work. There are numerous large villages, some of them with over one thousand inhabi- tants, lying within five miles of Mhow. In these there are no schools, and the Gospel is hardly ever preached, except by one of the Misses Stockbridge from Mhow, who in the midst of the pressure of zenana and school work, thinks it a holiday to go out in the early morning, and, gathering the simple villagers around, tell them the old, old story. '* It was witli a longing eye on these villages that I asked the Council to appoint me to Mhow. As the only language spoken by villagers is a low form of Hindi, I have almost cesised Urdu and given myself up to Hindi. *' In Mhow itself school work among boys is not so inviting, as the Parsees have established two very large and flourishing schools. The girls' schools, under the efficient management of the Misses Stockbridge, are doing a splendid work. The most delightful thing to mo here was the Sabbath school. To see this large hall filled with boys and girls together, singing the praises of Jesus, was joy indeed. " The first four months I spent at Indore tt ching in the College and studying Urdu." RUTLAM. Though the work here has been seriously retarded on account of the necessary absence of Mr. Campbell, it has been carried on by native brethren and sisters, aided by Mr. Bailey (in oliarge of tlie dispensary). Two Sabbath services, Sabbath school, dispensary, Gospel addresses at the railway station, at melas in the neighbourhood, etc., have all been continued by native workers with such aid as Mr. Campbell himself from tinie to time could give. \j\[CiO^ (0-ud'^'v. Appendix No. 4. xxxvn. IM.IA1N. Althuugh this city is 150 miles from Mr. Wilson's home at Nuemuch, he has, through the kindness of the railway authorities in j^rantin^ a pass to the Mission, )>een a)>lu to visit it about once a month, spending several days at a time with the native hruthren stationed there. Mr. Wilson, as we know from the " Council Minutes," has been greatly exhausted by over-W(jrk. " But," says he, " the extra labour and fatigue liavo been compensated by tlie very great pleasure that I have had in working with the native helpers in that ancient stronghold of superstition and idolatry." There are two schools for boys, one of them with an average attendance of eighty-nine, the other of thirty. Th.o Uiblo is taught in every class, and is one of the most popular studies in the school. There is a dispensary, at which religious services are held among the visiting patients daily. The number of patients treated during the j'ear was 4,2«>0. There are two schools on the Salibath for Scripture study. The teachers meet weekly for the study of the lessons. The Interna- tional Series is used. "The native helpers with their familios meet every Sabbath morning for 8er\'ice after Sunday school. In the afternoon a service of singing, with short addresses, is conducted at the dispensary. The sound of the little organ or violin is the signal at which many turn aside from the busy streets and take their seats in the dispensary waiting-room, the only place we have yet secured as a preaching hall. The room and doorways soon become crowded with listeners, who. coming and going, form an audience as long as the service is continued. The opening up of the work is a matter of great satisfaction. A most favour- able impression has been made by the native brethren who live and lalxnir there. Hut it is greatly to be desired that a missionary should be sent to give liis whole time and energy to this most important held. " Work among the women has been begun with much encouraging success by Miss Oliver." PROSPECT OK WORK AMONO THE BHEELS. " Nearly four months ago," writes Dr. Buchanan, "I realized one of the desires ot my heart, when I landed in India as herald of the Cross. During this time I have made my home at Indore camp, and have been chieHy employed in study of the I'rdu language. Still other work has taken some of my attention. I have had the joy of conducting a Bible class on Sunday morning for native heathen teachers who speak the English language, and in the evening a service for English speaking people, civilians and soldiers. 1 have also visited with pleasure all our Mission stations and made a tour of about two hundred and forty miles, principally in C(impany with Mr. Campbell, through that portion of our field lying west of Indore. The special object of our trip was to see and get some better knowledge of that large class of wild people, the Bheels. There are stiid to be about a million of them in the field for which our Church is responsible. As yet nothing haa been done for them except in so far as they may understand a little Hindi, and have come within the range of the missionary's voice. All grades of caste unite to hold in supreme contempt these outcasts of the hills, while they in return do not lose an oppor- tunity to make a raid on the goods of their scornful oi>pressors. On the other hand, the British ofticial asserts that the Bheel is the only native in these Central Provinces upon whose word you may rely. Their vice is drunkenness. If ever there was a people that needed and were ready for the revelation of a Saviour's love without respect of persons, it is the Bhoel. The fulness of the time, I believe, has come for them, and like the despised woman 'that w i\ sinner,' they will be incited by the tender compassion and conde- scension manifested in the life < f Jesus. " In the providence of God I have been appointed by the Council as a missionary to the Bheels, and have been asked for eight months to relievo Mr. Wilson of the charge of Ujjain. If the Home Committee sees fit to confirm the appointment, I hope to begin work Among them next fall, healing the sick and preaching the Gospel to the poor." xxwia. Appendix No. 4. MKDICAL UIHSION. — REPORT OF MIR8 RLIZABETH R. BEATTY AND MISS MARION OLIVER. '• The year 1888-89 has been one of quiet progress. The baptism of two women — one » patient, and the other a nurse in the hospital — has marked the year from the three pre- ceding it, and gives us hope and courage for the future. The hospital has been open al the year, sometimes more than comfortably full, sometimes nearly empty. Eighty-nine in-patients wero treated during the year. No deaths occurred amongst these, so that women are not now afraid to trust themselves with us and away from their own people. " In the city and camp dispensaries 11,830 patients were treated. During the year we began to charge a small sum for medicine. At Hrst it did not seem to affect the attendance, as our old patients were all willing to pay. Latterly we thought that the charge was keeping some people away, and as the amount of money realized was small we have, discontinued it — except in the case of people who are evidently well able to pay for what they rcijuire. The difference in attendance was more marked in the camp dispensary, where we are not far from the Government charity hospital. 3(55 patients were treated in tlieir own homes ; 822 home visits being made. That is exa tly double the number made last year. " An important extension of our work has been made in the opening of a dispensary for women in Ujjain. A native Christian woman, who has liad three years' training in the Agra Medical School, has charge of it and is doing good work. This dispensary was opened on October 24th, 1888, and during the following four months above 1,300 women and children received medicines fnmi it. " Two girls' schools have also been opened by us in Ujjain and give promise of doing well. Miss Oliver spends a few days in Ujjain every month, so that the native Christian women are helped, while the work in their hands is kept under observation. The city school here in Indore is progressing, and Miss Sinclair will soon be ready to take it off our hands. '^ The increased number of patients attending the dispensaries and the time required for the supervision of the school, as well as the new work in Ujjain, have compelled us to give less time to our medical class. The success of the Lady Dufferin scheme, however, relieves us of the necessity of training all our assistants, though we will still have to do a good deal in this line. The manikin, sent by friends in Kingston, will be a great help to us in this work." Misses Jamieson and Harris, having been appointed as missionaries to Central India, they are sent out in the hope that, by God's blessing, their co-operation may aid and encourage those now laboring under such trying circumstances there. When Mr. and Mrs. Wilkie return to their loved field of labour, accompanied by these young ladies, they will be able not only to convey to them the assurance of the hearty sympathy of the Church at home, but also to render them effectual help in their urgent need. CHINESE IN BRITISH COLUMBIA. The deliverance of the last General Assembly in regard to this important matter was in the terms following : — " In regard to entering upon missionary work among the Chinese in British Columbia, urged upon the Church by the Presbytery of Columbia, the Assembly remits the whole matter to the Committee of the Western Division to take such action in the premises as they may deem warranted by the state of the funds." The Committee, having due regard to the instructions of the Assembly previously given, made diligent inquiry as to what might be best to be done with a view to the evangelization of the Chinese on the Pacific coast. After careful consideration of the subject, they resolved " that a cordial invitation be addressed to Rev. Dr. J. B. Fraser to undertake this mission." After serious thought, Dr. Fraser expressed his willingness, in humble dependence on Divine Appendix No. 4. XXXI X. grace, to enter upon this work. Meanwhile correspondence with the Presbytery of Columbia made the Committee aware that, whethor from not bein^; altogether in harmony with them as to the course which they had thought it best to pursue, or from inability in existing circumstances to provide the funds reijuisite for securing accommodation and for other necessary purposes, the brethren there were not fully prepared for hearty co-opera- tion with them. In that Presbytery the prevailing idea seems to be that, in the meantime, it would be better to obtain one or more labourers from among the Christian Chinese than to send a Ci*nadian Missionary to superintand and further the work. The Committee, there- fore, notwithstanding their strong and abiding conviction of the peculiar fitness of Dr. Fraser for the work to which they had called him, deemed it inexpedient, in view of the difticult- ties which had unexpectedly presented themselves, to send him out. As the means at their disposal were limited, and as aid from the Presbytery of Columbia would have been indispensable, they were reluctantly constrained to adopt this as their interim resolution '■ " In view of the ditticulty and uncertainty of our present financial position, the Committee finds itself unable to proceed in the meantime with the establishment of the mission to the Chinese on the Pacific coast, and therefore with deep regret request the Rev. Dr. Fraser to permit the Committee to withdraw, for the time being, fr«jm the offer made to him." With the fori^etfulness of self which has characterized him throughout the whole discussion. Dr. Fraser has assented to this request. But the Committee cannot be per- suaded that this is the last that is to be heard of such a mission. The field is too inviting, the need is too urgent, to admit of their coming to this conclusion. They cannot but cherish the hope that, when the attention of the Church is more specifically directed to the condition of tlie thousands who, from amid the darkness of Chinese heathenism, have come to settle in our land, funds will be forthcoming sufficient to enable the Committee to provide for the sending to them of the Gospel of the grace of God. MISSION TO THE JEWS. The report of a sub-committee to consider the (piestion of a Mission to the Jews showed clearly the urgent need of such work. Mr. W. Mortimer Clark, now travel- ling in the East, who was asked by the committee to gather all the information he could to help the committee in dealing with this question, had complied very cordially with this request. Interesting letters were also received from Mr. Ben-Oliel, a Jewish missionary, whose name is well known to many in the Christian world. Both Mr. Mortimer Clark and Mr. Ben-Oliel are convinced of the importance of missionary work among the Jews. Wore such a mission entered upon it is believed that funds would be forthcoming for its support. There is no doubt that this subject is regarded with growing interest throughout the Church, and there is no doubt that it should be. The committee respectfully refer the whole matter to the Assembly. WOM.\N'S FOREIGN MISSIONARY SOCIETY (Westekx Division.) When we think of what has been accomplished during the past year tlirough the instrumentality of this Society, we see how appropriate are these words of the Kucording Secretary : " It is most gratifying to note from year to year the successful working (jf the organization in all its departments. The steady advance by natural growth from small things to greater, from uncertainty and timidity to stability and self-reliance, the ready adaptation of methods to local surroundings and circumstances, while maintaining in essentials a strict uuiformity, are characteristic of the system under which great results are already visible, and greater results are to follow in the future." How fully the refer- iiJ xl. Appendix No. 4. ence to ''^ruut results alruady visihlo " is w:*rrante(l, this statemont of tho proaent numerical strength of the Society shows us : " Total mcinlMTHhip in MisMJon Uaiulx 4,085 McmlHTH in AuxiIiarieM 10,144 MiMnlwrH of (ieneral Society 2,749 Total inetnbUf,'li the ci>ii|jn;r year Jle will lie near tliee.'" APPOINTMENT OF ADDITIONAL MISSIONARIES. The Assembly will observe that, of thoseven appointments recently made, tivo are for llonan, while only two are for India. Many tiirou<,diout tlie Ciiurch may be ready to suppose that the Conuuittee in makini; these a|ipointments have not carefully wei^jhed the claims of tiu) various mission tields. Our mission stall' in India stands in great need of reinforcement. In recent letters our missionaries there plead for tlie sending out of men and women to helj) them in the work which they are unable to overtake. It would have given the (Committee real satisfaction to comply with tiieir urgent reipiests. lUit tin; three brethren above named, whom the Coiiimitlee have ajipointuil to Hunan, are su|»poited l)y those whose liberality eiialiles the Committee to apjxiint lliem on tho condition of their being sent thither. The Committee are ready and anxious, as soon as means are jdaced at their disposal, to send additional Iielp to those in Central India who so greatly need and so earnestly desire it.

So far, therefore, no successful resistance has been made, either from within or from without the Church, to the programme of the Jesuits since their return to Canada. This i.s surely alarming, and will be seen to be more so when other grievances sutlered bv Protestants in Queiiec are mentioned. Protestant members of joint stock companies, siicii as Banks, Railways and Manufacturing firms are compelled by law, in spite of their con- Bcientious convictions, to pay a large amount of their school taxes for tlie support of Romish education. It is estimated that in Montreal alone the sum of between eight and ten tliuii- sand dollars per annum is thus api)lied. The degrees of Protestant Universities are de- graded. The B. A. degree is not accepieii as qualifying tlie holders of it to enter upon the study of law or medicine. The object is to compel young men aspiring to tlie.se professions to receive a certr-in Romish traininj' and thus draw them away from our institutions. Tin' intimate connection between Churcli ami State affords many facilities for eliminating Pro- testants from the Province. The parochial system, whicli is being rapidly exteniied, gnut- ly stimulates the zeal of ecclesiastics in this direction so as to enlarge the area from which tithes are derivable. The aim is to make all lands subject to this impost. Steps for the restoration of the temporal jwwer of the Pope are being gravely considered. It has been officially declared that the lej'islature can make no change in the school law, except as sanctioned by the Council of Public Instruction, which is composed of the Cardinal and his ton bishops, ten Roman Catholic laymen and ten Protestants.

In districts where there Ih a sutlicient niimlifcr of children, between the aj^es of five and si.xteen years, the Quebec schoitl law jirovides for the education of Protestants in schools of their own? wherever they can maintain them, and desire to do .so. As a mutter of fact, the number of Protestant children attendiiij^ Roman Catholic elementary schools is compara- tively small, but there are many districts in which the English minority tind it very dillicult to maintain their own schools, and onlv a few districts in which the French Protestant minority is strong enough to do so unaided. The remainder look to the Mission Boards of the various Churches, and especially to that of our own Church for assistance. Where the luiiiiher of children is smaller than the law requires for the organization of a disseiitit'nt !^cliool, the Board appoint a mission teri;her ami become responsible for the salary; where the number is sufficient to conform to the school act, the Board sanction theanpointmcnt of a Teacher and make a grant towards the salary, as the circumstances demand. In all such liises the school is made, as far as pos.'ible, a missionary centre, and the accompanying table shows that upwards of one-third of the pupils in attendance on such schools are the children of Roman Catholic parents. Bible instruction is given daily in them all. Quite a iiuinber of the schools organized or aided by the Board in past years, have become self sui>- Ixirtiiiji and are now entirely independent, the Teachers being appointed and the schools ciiutrolled by the Conimi.s.-jioners of the district Hence the removal of some and the absence of statistiw from others, in the following table : — ;l !• IV.

Moreover, the Scliool can every Sabbath reniember by name, in its prayers, the pupil if supports, and can scarcely fail itself to receive benefit by beinj: llms directly brou;rht into contact with the pupil educated by means of its missionary cnn- tributions. Tiie enlarjiement of the buildings and the conse(juent increase in tlie nuinlicr uf pn|)ils necessitates a very large increase in expenditure annually. It is hoped, therefurc, that many more of the Sabbath SchOi Is of the Clnirch will assume the support of a pupil. From those unable to do so, a contribution is earnestly asked. The Board has no iiesitation in warnily commending the schools as worthy of public confidence, assured that no means are likely, by the bles.-ing of God, to be more efficarjous in the work of Freneli Canadian Evangelization, and in advancing the cause of Ch ' in the Province of Queliec. Year after year God has manifestly set His seal upon this work, and blessed the labors of the teachers, but never has there been such a joyous reaping time as during the session just ended. " The Lord hath done great things for us, whereof we are glad." THE ANNUAL REPORT OF THE PRINCIPAL. A few days ago, in the new chapel of Pointe aux Trembles schools, were fathered for the last time this session, its voung confjregation for the closing exercises. Friends and members of the Board from Montreal had come, in order to examine the pupils and see their progress. Papers written by each pupil on every subject taught during the past session were put before the visitors. The scholars were examined in reading, grammar, geography, history, arithmetic, algebra, geometry, latin, greek, and the Bible. A composition was read, and two prizes, one of $15, the other of iji'iS, presented by the Missionary Society of the pupils, were awarded to two of our young men who intend to enter the Theological College next fall. The amount of work accomplished, as well as the progress of the pupils, shows that no time has been lost, and that they have all endeavoured to make the best possible use of the privileges enjoyed in our schools. ^ ' ilding.' Our buildings had never before gathered so many young people. One hundred and forty-five from the various districts of this province were received last fall — 95 were boys and 50 were girls ; 66 of them were children of parents who still adhere to the Church of Rome. The good seed of the Gospel sown in those young hearts, during this session and previous sessions, has already, through the ble&sing of God, yielded abundant fruit for His glory. The conversion this session of 3G of our young men and women who have given their hearts to the Saviour, has so rejoiced the teachers, that they have forgotten all the difficulties experienced in our missionary work. On the 21st of March, 70 of our pupils sat at the Lord's Table with the teachers and some of our neighbours. The influence of our young converts has been very great upon the other pupils, and they have become as many auxilaries facilitating our work in many instances. The Temperance cause has not been neglected in the school, and after a series of lectures on that important subject, nearly all the pupils have signed the pledge. Another cause of encouragement for us has been the progress of the Missionary Society of the pupils of Pointe aux Trembles. At their last meetin;' in February, they contribulfd $35 for colportage work ; $.S5 for the library of the school ; $50 for the 'building fund, and $50 for other objects. This is a clear manifestation of their earnest desire to help our missionary work, and to show their high appreciation of the privileges they have enjoyed while in the schools. If we add to the above the fact that 10 of our young people have lately expressed a desire to devote themselves to the evangelization of the Province of Quebec, the numerous friends who have so generously responded to our calls of last year, will .see that the Lord has abundantly blessed their sacrifices, and that we have ample reasons for being encouraged in our work. We would like to put before you the pressing needs of our girls' school for the coming session. We have now a spacious and comfortable building for the boys — able to accommodute aliout 120. But what of tho.«e GO girls wc have been obliged to refuse last year for lack of accommodation? Shall we be compelled to refuse them once more? Let all those wiio have not yet sent their gift for the girls' building, come forward and help us out of the present difliculty. When forty years ago, the fir.st missionaries of this field ."bowed the necessity of opening these schools, iii a short time the funds necessary for the erection of the buTldings were gathered. Shall it be .-aid, thiit after forty years of material jjrogress, of the extension in the number of Protestant Chmrlv, and of undeniable success, it will take more time to raisi' tlie funds necessary for their extension, than to our predecessors it took to jtut them up? Is the spirit of Protestantism dying out in Canada? Are you going to send an ann\ of missionaries against Buddha and Confuciu.«, and leave open the doors of your fortress before the dark battalions of Loyola, who seem to be encouraged in their onward march by the indiflerence, if not cowardice, of many Protestants fouiiil in our ranks? As the old clergy of Quebec seem to be unable to check the progress of the Gospel Appendix No. vn. .iinong their people, the pope is nov/ sendin.LC tl»e Roman le(»iotH to Canaila to see if tliey ciiiinot accomplish whatothern have tried toilo in vain. And hpcaiiscsomi' Prote^tant.'^ do not «ei' the Jesnit.s dra;ini; behind them the in(]iiisiti(ni, tiu'V seem Ui holieve that they have liciorne lanih-like, and that they should have tiie rioii iKistnrc of ijjiprairie and |!K)0,t)00 tor tlie supnort of their meek shepiierd. Will not tlie arro<;ant assumption of these enemies of truth, and of progress ami liiicrty, open the eyes and the purses of many (/liristians who have so far remain.^d iiniillerent to the sad condition of their Roman Catholic couiitryn)en, as well as to theetIi>rtH (if that nohle band of missi(jnaries, who for oO years have been on the wall tijj;hting Itiavely, one against a hundreil? Let not onr apathy or our gree(l keep any lonirer onr countrymen in the darkness and misery of lioman ("atholicisni, but let us come bravely and cheerfully to the rescue of tho.se wiiu are imploringly stretching out their hamls in our direction.

Mr. Lefebvre speaks of his people as most zealous and untiring in tiieir ellbrts to reach their Roman Catholic neighbours. They, this year, contribute $100 towards his salary, be-^ides meeting the expenses connected with the Church.

PnKsiiVTKKY OF MoNTKKAi. . — The following report was submitted to the Presbytery of Montreal at its last regular meeting by the Rev. Q. Colborne Heine,* convener of the Presbytery's Committee on F'rench work : — Your committee beg leave to report that th(! work of evangelizing tlu; French has been pursued with unremitting vigor, and by means of the ordinary channels, viz., ordained missionaries, students from the I'resbyterian College, mission si hool teachers and colporteurs. VN'ith a view to ascertaining the condition of the work in the different fields, the difficulticH in its prosecution, the encouragements, &c., the convener sent out a (;ircular to all tlie missionaries. Some matters of importance were communicated from these brethren, which will be of interest to the Presbytery. The queries cover the year 1888. 1. Q. Ilnir mtnn/fdniilies in !/nnr iiiis.sioii-Jiidil / The answers to this query are embodied in tlie statistical report. 2. Q. Jfinr inmii/ J'timilirs /lavf, i/oti mldi"! from the Rnmitih Chnrrh? A. One missionary reports firr individuals ; another threr families, embracing sixteen individuals, and fire single persons, all of whom have gone to the United States to escape persecution. Another reports from eiy a IJoman ('iithojic teacher, and intimates that this is not by any means a rare instance (if th(! kind. This should seive to open our rves, as to how the youiiK in this Province are bcin^' hd away from their faith, and how our ciisy H'ntiii, tolerant, unsuspecting; Protestantism is inv.ided by the ever watchful, crafty, a>;- ^'ressive Komanism, the persistent foe of our civil and reliifious liberties 5. Q, In tliv Work of EcduijcJizdtidU iii'ili'inif itui/ />ri>i/n;s.'< in i/oiir /irlil ? A. All the missionarit;s say 'yes,' and mciiition as sitjns of such pro>;ress, afji'eater readi- ness to hear the gospel, on the part of the Iloman (Jatliolics A Kioat jniiny now have the scriptures and read them, the old-time prejuilices are ineltins; away, and missionaries and colporteurs can go almost anywhere unmolested and do their work. The hold of the Church of Rome on the better inst ucted classes is greatly weakeneil, and there are not a tew wlio re- sist the attempt of tho priests to tamper with their civil rights. 6. Q. What in j/mtr opinion arc f/u' lusf mnins of rounr/clizinf/ i/ir Frcnrh pinplpf A. Mission centres for preaching the gospel and mission schools are in) a superior school between this and the Provincial Normal School. Presbyterian f'olleire, and McGill University, and (c) an industrial school, whereby young people could be better prei)ared for tiseful avocations. Great stres.s is laid on the pn ss, as a most ])owerful and efficient means, if ])roperly conducted, of advancing the truth. Other brethren advise a thorough prosecution of the work, on tlio present lines employed by the Board, and empha^^ize the establishing of preaching-st^itions in as many places as possible, where all can entir and hear the gosjiel. '' Curiosity, if not tho desire to hear the gospel, will lead many to enter. Tht!y find that they have been deceived by their spiritual leaders ; they expect to hear nothing but insults against their church, and they hear of Jesus — gradually what they hear creates an uneasiness in their minds, which leads to a spirit of enquiry ; they wish to know more, they avail themselves of every op- l)ortunity to hear the gosi)el eitlier public ly or privately. This with time spreads light and the knowledge of the gospel, discussions among the people arise in stores, in sliops, in factories, on the streets, and in public places. This begets a desire in others to hear for them- selves, to read the scriptures, and the consequences are that hundreds of families who out- wardly appear to be zealous Roman Catholics are Protestant at heart, but are waiting for some event to enable them to openly abandon the church." 7. Q. Do you oltserrc (iiiy moreinivit (tmoiit/ Ifte French people toward a greater liliertij of conscience, ofthouffht, toward jxiliticul frccdtun and the gnspelf A. One missionary observes that '• there is a great deal of uneasiness in tho mind of the people, especially among the intelligent classes. They begin to feel that they possess an in- dividual conscience and reason, and they long for liberty, religious as well as political. In our town all the intelligent people are liberals, and will not allow theii spiritual ailvisers to interfere with their liberty. I have heard many saying, ' If we allow the clergy to trample on our religious liberty, we do so for the sake of our social and professional standing; we do not believe in, nor do we care for their teachings, but we will not permit them to interfere with our political liberty. The feeling of hundreds tends toward liberty, from what they know and acknowledge to be the yoke of Komanism. They envy our freedom, our religious position ; they feel the bonds, biit declare themselves too weak, as yet, to break them. An intelligent man said to me, 'there are hundreds of Roman Catholics in this town who t^nvy your freedom. We wish to be like yon, we hope to be so some day ; meanwhile we wish you every success in your work ; be not discouraged though some ignorant jjcople may despise your cause ; we intelligent people admire your strength, your truth, and we wish, yea long, to be free.' " Another brother reports: "I believe there is a progressive movement in the minds of the French people; their consciences are being stirred ; the peoi)le are b'lrdened, and thirst for a liberty which they will never get from their tyrannical clergy, and which they can only receive through the gospel which is the power of God unto salvation to every one who be- lieves. A great number of families have begun to think for themselves in religious matters, as well as in political. I believe tlie day is approaching when there will bo a terrific ex- plosion of the hatred, now growing in the minds of great numbers against the intolerable ex- actions of the priesthood. With regard to the more intelligent Iloman Catholics, many hold to the Church of Rome, because their own inti;rests and those of their families seem to require it, but they are alienated from its teaching.s, and laugh at its superstitioii.s.' One of our most intellectual missionaries says : "There is now more than ever a deep dis- sntisfaction in the minds of Koman Catiiolies of the intelligent classes toward their clergy. The people are groaning under the burdens which the priesthood iin[)ose on them, and tliey are beginning to look for some means of shaking olf the yoke entirely, or of lightening it The people do not as yet know that the gos|)el can deliver them from their pitiable bondage, so great are their prejudices against ProtesUmts ; however, many are now asking who these, Protestants are whom they have been accustomed to have held up to contempt." 8. Q. What is the feclimi of Roman Catliolioi towards trench Protestants? A. In many cases it is one of entire friendliness, good-will and esteem, more especially Xll. ApI'KNIHX No. '). i ! piTlmiis in tlic rotintry. One of our moKt cKtconn'rl minsioTiiirins wrUc>< : 'Tim French Rnni'tn CiitliolirH liriir Krtiicli I'riilostiints kaii/' j/aur niiKjreijation innke toward your salarii fur ilic cuninl ijcar ! The expenses of the board arc" increasing, and missionaries should do their best to stimulate the liberality of their pi;ople. A. Till' answers to tliis query have been various. In one church they have doubled the amount, in others, it will ije about the same, for reasons already adverted to. In conclusion, it must be admitted that the work bi'fore this Presbytery in evangelising our French fellow-countrymen, is one of great maguitud-'. Looked at from a human point of view one might well give up the attempt in despair, liut on the other hand, is anything too hard for the Lord ? And the Master's own words cheer us on ; — '' With man this is im- possible ; but with God all things are possible." Nor are we to judge of this problem by the past merely. In these days there is an acquired momentum in all directions, in the search after scientific trutli, in the mechanical ap[)liances, and also in the moral and religious sphere. What it has taken fifty years to accooiplish, in the face of difficulties well nigh insurmount- able, should now be overtaken in five, with the application of similar .sanctified labor. Tliere has been a great agitation going on now in this Province, for the past two or three years more (larticuhuly. Hut our work has not been liindeied. It has been enhirged and is enlarging. Tlie permission of the last General Assembly to the Hoard to acquire the splendid property of file Ottawa Ladies' College is significant. It couhl not have been faced five years ago. We have many eiicoinaging indications. Tin: crying needs of our Fr(;ncli brethren appeal to us all to give them tfie gosjiel, to lielp in tlieir emancipation from a thraldom as bitter and as strong as that of the Hebrews under tlie haughty power of Egypt. Let us do our best to help them and save them, and in saving them, deliver our land from the intolerant antl op- pressive power of Romanism. Al'I'KNDlX N<». 1.

Tiic aim Hhall be to j^ivu yoiiii',' w(unen a thorough ChriHtian education in Krviich and English at a moderate cost. French pupils of meritand a|)prove ■ admitted on examination from the Mission Schools of the Board, and every opportunity will thus bo furnished to Knglish pupils both by daily conversation and instruction in classes to acquire a full knowledge of French, wliii li will lie chiefly, while not exclusively, the language used by all residents of the institution. It is hoped that thus all prete.xts for Protestant parents sending their daughters to convents will be removed. STAKK OF IN8TUUCTOK8. Steps are being Uiken to secure as principal a christian lady from Europe whoso verna- cular is French, and who is distinguished for ability, attainments, skill and success in teach- ing, power in moulding character, and wisdom in the exercise of discipline and the adminis- tration of educational details. The principal will be assisted by a competent statf of resi- dent and non-resident teachers, all able to converse in French and (jualiiied to conduct the work of the several branches of a lirst class English education, and to give instruction in Latin and Greek classics as may be reijuircd.

The jrreat need of the work is a fresh baptism of the Spirit of God upon all connected with it. To this end the earnest prayers of the Church are asked. The voice of interce.s- sion may bring down a rich blessing on every Bible or Tract distributed, on every lesson taught, and on every word for Christ spoken. "Put me in renieiniirance ; let us plead together." " Prove me now herewith, saith the Lord of Hosts, if I will noi open you the windows of heaven and pour you out a blessing, that there shall not be room enough to receive it." Let then the Church's prayer be offered up unceasingly for the vivid and copious manifestation of God's grace in the midst of our French Canadian fellow-countrymen. All of which is respectfully siibmiited. 198 St. James Street, Montreal, May 25th, 1889. D. H. MACVICAll, D.D., LL.D., Chairman. KOHT. H. WARDEN, D,D.. iStc'y- Treas. xvi.

The new endow- ment fund is, at the date of this report, !^l2,0iM), of which .?10,000 has been invested in mortgages, and the balance is on deposit in the bank, awaiting suitable investments. There still remains due on the old indebtedness at Dr. Keid's office, on account of ordinary fund, i?H,458. It will thus be seen that the debt of the College is, at this date, •'i>lO,023.*i5. The Board are desirous of making an effort during the coming year to have this entirely cleared off, and hope their doing so will meet with the approval if the Assembly. During the last summer the library was re-arranged and a catalogue prepared by the Rev. A. B. Baird. This occupied a great deal of time and invohed no little labour. The Board desires to express its thanks to Mr. Baird for his services. In this cimneution, thanks are due to Mr. Scarth, M.P. for Winnipeg, and Mr. Daly, M.P. for .Selkirk, for the kindnessi in procuring copies of the reports of the Geological Survey of Canada, and similar publications issu^^d by the Government, rer|uired to complete the im[)t'rfect set formerly in the library. The Board heartily concurs in the opinion expressed by the Senate of the vahie of the services rendered to the (*ollege I)y the Rev. R. Y. Thomson, B.D., and as to the desirability of the College continuing to have a share of his services, if at all compatible with the interests of an 'her institution. The Board also desires to endorse, in the most emphatic manner, the oliservations of the Senate as to the iniulo(juacy of the present staflf to overtake, in a satisfactory manner, the amount of work requiring to be done in the institution. The Principal, Professors, Tjecturt.Ts. and Tutors are, one and all, burdened far beyond their strength. The Board would also express its deep sense of the great loss it has just sustained in the death of the Hon. A. G. B. Bannatyne, who was its chairman from the incorporation of the College till last year, when owing to failing health he was relieved of the duties of the office by the apj>ointment of the present chairman as joint chairman with him. During his long tenure of oltice, Mr. Banna- tyne was a good friend to the College, helping it with generous contributions, and giving it the benefit of hia wise counsels. The Board also regrets that owing to ill-health, Mr. A. M. Campbell, M. A., who has for so many years efficiently discharged the onerous and difficult duties of resident tutor, has been compelled foi- the present, at least, to withdraw from work. All which is respectfully submitted, T. W, TAYF.OR, Chav)-nvin. IV. Appendix No. 0. NtP^i! REPORT OF THE SENATE OF MANITOBA COLLEGE FOR THE YEAR l«ss-!). The Senate of Manitoba College, in presenting its Annual Report to the General AssemMy, would do so in a s|)irit of devout thankfulness to God for His goodness in connection with the whole work of the Session. The nunilier of ijupils of all classes on the roll of the College duriir^ the session has been one hundred and twelve, being again in advance of the number in attendance during the previous Session. Eighteen were enrolled as regular students in the Thwiogical classes, their standing being as follows : — Thiup Ykak.— William J. Hall, Isaac McDonald. Skcon'I) Ye.\u.— Walter Beattie, Arthur Bowman, B.A., Roderick McBeth, M.A., Xorman Russel, B.A. First Ykar.- James Buchanan, Duncan Campbell, B.A., Peter Fisher, Robert E. Knowles, Thomas Logic, B.A., George Lockhart, Alexander Manson, D. D. MacKay, Jamea E. Munro, Donald M. Ross, Hope F. Ross, W. C. Wallace. In addititm, A[r. Samuel Poison attended the greater part of the lectures after Christmas and took hi.s share in the class exercises, though he was not in a position to chiim the rank of a reguhii student of Theology. With Dr. King, the students of the second and third years read critically Isaiah, chapters i., ii , vi., vii., ix. (in part), xi., xiv. Hi. (in part) and liii. The students of the first year also met with tht> class and took part in its exercises after the Christmas vacation. In the New Testament, Dr. King read with the students of all the three years, the First Epistle of John. In Systematic Theology, the subjects discussed during the season were: J^ffectual Calling, Regeneration, Faith, Justification, Sanctification and the Sacrament ; Dr. Hodge's Outlines being used aa a text-book. In addition, a class in Biblical Theology was taught once a week by Dr. King, the aim being to present an orderly exhibition of the personal teachings of Christ on the more import.ant topics to which these refer. These classes also were attended by all the students in Theology. A senior and a jxmior class in Hebrew were taught throughout the session by the Rev. A. B. Baird, B.D., one of the lecturers in the College ; the former was attended by the students of the second and third years and_ met two days each week, the latter by those of the first year and met three days each week. Davidson's Hebrew Grammar was used in both classes and the first Psalms were read in the senior class. In addition, Mr. Baird lectured three times a week after New Year on Christian Evidences and on Inspiration, using for the former subject the work of llawlinsoii as a text-book. These lectures were attended by all the students in Theology, From the opening of the Session until Christmas, the Rev. R. Y. Thomson, B.D., gave a daily lecture on the subject of Introduction, taking specially the prophetical books of the Old Testament and the Psalms. Mr. Thomson's services were much aijpreciated by the students, who have expressed the strong desire that the College might continue to eijoy them during a part of each Session. Mr. Thomson gave very valuable assistance in connection with the x\rts' Classes also. The Senate would express it-i high appreciation of the value of Mr. Thomson's labours, and of the zealous and unselfish spirit in which they were rendered. If at all compatible with the interests of another institution, which has a prior claim on Mr. Thomson's services, the Senate would esteem it a great boon that this College should be permitted to continue to have a share in them. In consequence of the removal from the country of the Rev. Arch. McLaren, the Rev. W. H. Spence, of Kildonan, was appointed to lecture on Church History. Mr. Spence has placed the College under obligation by accepting the ajjpointment, and has given a lecture once a week with much acceptance. The Reformation period has been that mainly treated during this Session. Written examinations were conducted on the various subjects of study, both at Christmas and at the close of the Sessiem. The written exercises required by the Church— sermons, lectures, and critical exercises — were also read by the students and criticised by Dr. Ki. The following scholarships and prizes were avarded in connection with the examinations : — TO STUDENTS 01' THK FIRST YEAR. -Hopi The Memorial Scholarship (St. James Sciuare, Toronto), .$50, for general proficleney- F.

The " Ro rt Anderson" Scholarship, $50, for general proficiency— William J. Hall. The " Ro ort Anderson " 2nd Prize, .$20, for general proficiency — Isaac McDonald. Mr. NorL .n Russel, who had passed a very creditable examination at Christmas, was prevented by illness fro*^ taking part in the final examination. The Senate had no difficulty in according to Mr. Russel .is standing for the year. Mr. Logic, who had entered on the work of the Theolo- Appendix No. 0. V. ^'i':al classes with much spirit, was ohligeil also to discontinue his attendance at an early period of tlio Session on account of weak health. Mr. Isaac McDonald, in addition to his class examinutiotis, passed successful examinations in several of the subjects of the B.D. course. In the Department of Arts, the list of students to the number of seventy is as follows : — Siinior B.A. Year. — Fred. J. .Sharpe, William Jiutherford, Frank Kussel, Thomas Heveridge, D. j). MacKay, .J. K. Munro, Jessie Holmes, J. H. Leech, Morton McKwan, Francis Mulvey, Harry I'niuhart, W. B. Elkin, A. DriscoU. Thomas Lockhart, William C. Graham.

Several of them are persons of mature years and fair jieneral scholarship and have the ministry in view. Very numerous and important changes were made a year ay;o in the Arts ( 'urriculum by the I'niversity of Manitoba, necessitating corresponding changes in the teaching of the College and consequently entailing additional work on the Professors. In the Arts Department Dr. Bryce taught the Honour and Pass Classes in Natural Science, four students taking the Honour work. He also took the work in Kuglish Literature of the Modern Language Course and of the Previous Year, together with the Euclid of the Previous and the Preliminary years. Professor Hart again taught the Classics and French both in the Honour and Pass subjects. Five students read with him this year in Honour Classics. Twenty-six students of the Previous year received instruction from him in Classics and French. Mr. Baird divided with Dr. King the teaching in the Honour subjects of the Mental and Moral Science Course, and in the German of the Modern Languages Course, with the excejjtion in the former of the History of Ancient Philosophy which was taught by Mr. R. Y. Thomson ; the .Senate had arranged that "Slv. Thomas Logie, a former pupil of the College and a distinguished s;railuate and fellow of the University of Toronto, should take the greater part of the work in Philosophy. Mr. Logic's state of health, however, did not ])ermit him to carry out the arrange- ment. While here, he lectured with much satisfaction to the students on Mill's Political Kcimomy. The Senate has put on record its sympathy with Mr. Liigie and its high appreciation of his ability and character. Fourteen students took the Honour Course in Philosophy, and seven in Modern Languages. The students in Honour Mathematics, two in number, were taught by Mr. George Paterson, M.A., a distinguished Graduate and Medallist in Mathematics of the University of Toronto, and whose services in this branch of study the Senate was fortunately able to secure. It may Ite mentioned that this is the first year in the history of the College, when five Special or Honour Courses have been taught, in addition to the General or Pass work required of all the students. The College continued to enjoy during the greater part of the Session the servioes of Mr. A. M. Campbell, M.A., for many years the resident Tutor. Towards the close, the state of his liealth made it prudent for hirt to withdraw from work for a time. The Senate cherishes the hope of regaining the services of Mr. Campbell, who has filled the ditticult position with much acceptance during a lengthened term. It was found necessary to make use this Session on a larger scale than in former ones of senior students in the teaching of some of the Prei)aratory, and even Junior A.rts Classes. It must ije evident that the present staff of teachers is not adecjuate to overtaking in a satisfac- tory manner the amount of work to be done in an Institution, not only aiming at giving a comjilete course of instruction in Arts and in Theology, but also giving not a little elementary drill, both in English and Classical subjects. The Senate, however, is not prepared to recoTnmend to the General Assembly any permanent addition to the staff, until the means for meeting the expense connected with such addition are in sight, It desires simply to have continued to it the power of securing such temporary assistance, as the funds at the disposal of the Board may seem to warrant. Fifty-five students connected with the College took pirt in the examinations of the L'"niversity of Manitoba, in May, 1888, subsequent, therefore, to the date of last report. Twenty-four gained Scholarships ranging in value from §100, downwards. Four Medils were taken l)y the students of the Institution. Seven were admitted to the degree of B.A. Sixty-four students are taking part in the sinnlar examinations which are being conducted by the University at the date of this report. The Societies connected with the College have been in efficient operation throughout the Session. The Missionary and the Literary Societies, especially, have served imjiortant ends. The former sends this year four Missionaries into the field, relieving to that extent the Assembly's Home Mission Fund, and at the same time accustoming the students to executive work. It is a matter for thankfulness to God that the Senate has again to report that the health of the students has been well maintained throughout the Session. At times the residence has been rather crowded, the same care, however, as formerly, for the health and comfort of the students boarding in it, has been taken by the matron and the resident tutor.

The Hoard of Governors of Morrin College beg leave to present the following Report for the past session, and \\\ doing so would gratefully acknowledge the goodness and mercy shown them through the ye ir by the Great Head of the Church, so that the work of the College has been carried on under circumstances of a most encouraging nature. In the Arts Department twenty-eiiiht s'udents have been enrolled in the vari us classes, taking the full course of study as required by McGill University, to which Morrin College is affiliated. There are also several occasional students receiving instruction in particular branches The graduating class numbered five, viz. : Miss McLeod, Miss Sloan, Messis. James II. Whitelaw, Geo. II. .Smith and Adam Robertson. The gener.il standing taken by each of these five students at the tlnal eximinatiou was exceed- ingly satisfactory, eliciting special comment on 'he day of convocation. Of these twenty-eight students the Governors are pleased to state that fourteen or fifteen have already made known their intention of stu'lying for the ministry of the Presbyterian Church in Canada. Eight of this number are during this summer employed in mission work, six under the direction of thi- Home Mission Coi^mittee of the Assembly, and two under the Mis^i.jnary Associa- tion of the College. In the Theological Department there are ;it present four student-, in the firs; year, viz. : Messrs. W. J, Jamieson llegli Craig, J. II. Blue and D. McCulloch ; and I'lve students in the second year, viz, : M-s^rs. Geo. II. Smith, James Whitelaw, A. Robertson, S. McDonald and D. M. Jami-son. In reference to Mr. Whitelaw, a special application will be made to this .\ssembly by the Preshyteiy of (,)ut.'bec. Morrin College 1 as thus furnished this year eight youn;; men to aid the Church in her Hume Mission work. In reference to finance the Gov .-mors regret to state thai the income of the College i-; far below its requirements, so that the work is carried on under manv 'iifficuiiies. At the same time the Governors have great ple;isure in stating that since last Assembly a decided step I'orward has been maoe linancially. Juhti T. Ross, Esq., has signitied his in.entini ol giving one thousan ; dollars 11. Al'I'ENDIX No. 10. per annum for three yi'ars, nnd ihen will cn[)ital;/.e that amount. lie also mentions that possibly he may make it next year two thousand (luilars per annum, l-'rark Ross, Ivscp, ol <^>ut-liec, nives two thousand dollars per annum for three years.

The degree of li. 1). was confeirad on two students, !)oth of whom exhibited great pr«f]cii»ncy in their .studies, viz., .A. 15. Lewis and J. F, .Smith. The utteudunce uf stiulents duiin<.' the |)ast session Mas greater than that of any former year, — amouuting to tliiity in all, ol whom ten weisof the Senior V«ar, eight of the Middle V«ar, eight of the second or advanced Junior Mivision, and three of the First l)ivision. The number of stuilents was in e.xi ess of the accommodation available in the College Building ; but room was found for them by utilizing the outside cottages belonging to the property, 'i'he health of the students lias been remarkably g<)od. Tht^ class "f Natural Theology wa.»t attended by eiyht students, three of whom were third year undergraduates in Arts. The class of Christian Evidences was attended by sevun ■tudents. The class of Systematic Theology was attended by eighteen students of the middle and •enior years in Theoloi;y' 'J'lie siilijects discussed weie the doctrine concerning Clod. His Datura, attributes, and plan of o{iuration ; th« works of croation and providence ; the fall of man and its con^eijuences. The class of I'atiistic (ireek was attended by three students, who read the Epistle to Diognetus and the Vision.s of llermus. Sixteen homilies ami iiolemicul theses were read and ciritiuised in the course of the session. The .Junior Hebiew Class commenced with the Alphabet and overtook about two-thirds fif an Klementai'y (irammar and Reader. The Inter- mediate Cla.ss went through the Inst third of the Klemeiitary (Irammar and Header, and lead extracts from vai'ious parts of the Hebiew Hibie. 'The Senior Class read the Hook of Ruth and studied exegetically several Psalms and extracts from Isaiah. Daniel and extiacts from two of the Taigums were aUo read.

In Homiletics. — (bourse of lectures on .Sacred Rhetoric, exclusive of the subjects of style and delivery. Elocution was taught, as on two previous sessions, by Mr. Waddell, with great zeal and diligence ; and after competition three prizes weii; awarded to students who attenileil the class. A course of lectures on cjimparative relit;' /n by ministers a!id others, was given on one day of the week throuiihout the session. The leeluies gave the fruit of carctul study in a vigorous and elleetive presentation of the several silijects embraced in the course. During the absence of the I'lincipal on account of .severe dumestic atliiction (under which he and his family have the deep sympathy of the Hoard, as' of the Church generally) a course of nine lectures was delivered by the chairman, on Jesuitism and cognate subjects connected with the Romanist controversy. A special sei'vice for students, on the second .Sabbath of each mouth, at 3 o'clock, p.m., was conducted by the Professors in rotation.

That the favour of God, so evident in the past history of Sabbath Schdols, should be duly acknowledged by the Church, and His full blessing invoked on some Sabbath set apart for that pur- pose, snd for such other special services as will give due prominence to the training o( the children and youth of the Church, and that the second Sabbath of September be the day appointed. 2. That the Assembly be asked to instruct the Committees on Home Missions, Foreign Missions, French Evangelization and Temperance, each to prepare an exercise suitable for a Sab- bath School service, embracing interesting facts, figures, and incidents from their respective reports. 3. That the Assembly instruct its Committee on Sabbath Schools to prepare a brief hand-book on Sabbath School organization, classification, government, work, registration and systematic giv- ing, to be submitted for consideration at the next General Assembly. 4. That inasmuch as one of the great defects of our S. S. system at the present time is the lack of skilled as well as consecrated i."\bour, it is recommended that weekly meetings of teachers and officers for united prayer, conference, and study of the lesson, and of the principles and methods of good teaching, be held in every congregation. 5. That the systematic and daily study of the Sabbath School lesson and Shorter C itechism in the family, and especially where Sabbath School privileges are out of reach, be recommended and emphasized from the pulpit, and by sessions and superintendents. 6. That all congregations be urged to assume, out of their ordinary reverue, the support of thc'ir schools and to have some simple method of weekly offerings to the Schemes of the Church adopted in every school. 7. That Presbyterial Sabbath School conventions, conferences, and institutes, under the leader- ship of experienced members of the Church, clerical or lay, be held frequently in needy or influen- tial centres. 8. That the General Assembly appoint a general secretary of Sabbath School work, who shal devote all his time to the work under the direction of the Committee on Sabbath Schools. 9. That the attention of Presbyteries be called to the necessity of appointing such conveners of Sabbath School Committees, as have the best facilities for overtaking their duties, and, when neces- sary, their expenses for correspondence and in visiting schools and neighbourhoods where schools should be established be paid by the Presbytery. 10. That Presbyterial conveners be required to forward, not later than Septemlier ist in each year, a list of schools, pastors, superintendents, with post office address, of all schools within their bounds, corrected to dale, to synodical conveners, to be forwarded to the convener of the Assembly's Committee. The whole respectfully submitted. JAMES FLECK, Gonvtner. SCHEME OF HIGHER RELIGIOUS INSTRUCTION. In accordance with instructions received from last General Assembly, your Committee have inquired into the constitution and working of the " Welfare of Youth " scheme of the Free Thurch of Scotland, and submit herewith the draft of a similar scheme for adoption, if approved, by this Assembly. All the reports of the Free Church Committee since 1880 have been carefully studied and col- lated with those of similar schemes in the Presbyterian Church of England and the Presbyterian Church of New South Wales. There is but one testimony from all quarters to its popularity and efficiency. Its bentlits have not been confined to the results flowing from an intsllectual grasp of religious truth, but it has elevated the spiritual life of the Church, and proved that the piety which is most intelligent is also the most fervent and sustained. The Committee have to acknowledge the courteous assistance of Mr. Simson, the Secretary of the Free Church Committee ; Rev. Dr. Gibson, joint convener of the S.S. Committee of the Pres- byterian Church of England, and the Rev. Jas. Lamont, convener of the S.S. Committee of the Presbyterian Church of New South Wales. They have also to thank the Committee on the " Wi-i- fare of Youth " of the Free Church, for their cordial and generous offer of the free use of the "obverse" die of their medal, and Messrs. Kirkwood & Sons, for a similar offer in regard to an "obverse" in their possession. The Committee have thus the choice of two very elegant, chaste and appropriate designs, thereby effecting a saving of initial cost of about $85. Whether the scheme is adopted or not, the generous offers deserve our warmest recognition. If ' :^y" lilt IV. Appendix No. 12. PRESBYTERIAN CHURCH IN CANADA.

During the year the Committee issued a Tonic-sol fa edition of the Sabhath School Hynnud, to be sold at 5 cents per copy. Tiie Rev. James Anderson, of Muscpiodoboit Harlmur, kindly superintended the publication of this edition. In accordance witli a strongly expressed desire to enlarge the Sabhath School Hymnal, the Committee judged it expedient to projiose the addition of .10 hymns to the present collection, and have taken .steps to make choice of this n>ind)er. They recommend that the Conmiittec to be appointed for next year be instructed to complete the selection and authorized to publish an enlarged edition of the Sabbath School Hymnal. It will be seen from the Treasurer's tleport, which is api)ende(l, that the amount received for royalty and the use of the plates during the past year was .•?l,(i(ii .81, being nearly double the amount received during the previous year. With the money received the Committee have been able to pay to iJr. Reid the balance of the auiount due to him for money borrowed, imd also the balance of f 1,000 due Messrs. P.allantyne & Co., of Edinburgh, for plates. The total value of plates now entirely paid foi-, and which are the property of the Church, nuiy be estimated at IJ3,00(), yielding an average yearly rental of $2(10. WILLIAM GREGd.

(,'onveiier).- No foimal Keport has been received from this Synod, but we have been informed that in St. John there hu,-. been a good deal of activity manifested during the year. 1'he I'/Vangelical Alliance entered an earnest protest against railway work on Sabbath and other violations of the Lord's |)i:y. The Society for the promotion of the due observance of the Lord's Day has taken action in the matter of the running of the Street Railway on .Sabiiath and other violations of the day. It has also sought renewed legislation, but .so far without succe.-.s. Pul)lic -.leetiiigs have been held under the auspices of the Society, and in many ways the (juestion of Sabbatli observance has been brought prominently before the people. The Legislature of Nova Scotia, at the instance of the friends of the Sabbath passed an Act to facilitate the administration of the law against Sal)bath desecration. Penalties attacheb)>ath observance, and nearly all the pastors have complied with the .Assembly's regulation to preach at least one sermon during tlie year on the due obseivaiice of the .■^abbat!l Chief among the foi'ms of Sabbath desecreation comes tratlic on the railroads. Montreal reports that more trains arrive and depart on the Sabl)ath than on any other ilaj' of the week. In the worksho[)s, liowever, nothing but necessary work is perfoi'iued, which i.s not true of other parts of the .Synod. Despite the urgent opposition of the Montreal Ministerial Association, the Quebec Ijcgislature passed an aniendnent to the city chai'ter granting the .City Council piTiiiis- sioii to legali/.e the sale of candies, fr'iits, refreshments, cigars, etc., in the city ami St. llidens Island. The Synod recommended that "the Convener of the (ienei'ai Assembly's Committee on .V'abbath observance l)c reipiested to 'ivnd down a set of ipiestions on Sabbath obser\ance, to elicit information as to 1k)W the Sabbath is (deserved, or as to what the prevalent forms of Sabbath desecration are throughout the different provinces of the Dominion.'' Si/noi/ of Torntilo ami k'iiKjxioii (Wvy. Dr. Parsons, Convener). —The Keport from the Synod of Toronto and KiiiLTston refers to the deseciatioii of the .Sabbath by railway emplos ee.^ at \ ork Station and 'I'oroiito .Imiction, and to th" f.iet that the milk triitli<' is interferiiii. w ith the proper obsei-vance of the Lords' Day in sonu! congregations, an v^'se. It also urges upon Presbyteries tlie sending of (U^mtatio > :> Members of Parliament soliciting tlieir sujiport in securing fulk^r legislation ag'iinst .Sib", violation by steamboats and railway companies ami other otrenders (enforcement). Si/iK/il of Miiiiiloha ami the North- Wint (Rov. James Fanjuliar.son, Convener). — The Report of the Synod of Manitoba and tlie Xorth-west •• encouraging, with tlie exception of that portion which refers to British Columbia. lie says : " Ivich of the Pre sliyterics east of the Pocky Mountains reporting, l)carst(s!i- mony to the iiiiprovcmeut that has taken place in almost all districts within the bounds in the \ray in which tlie Sabbath is observed." "Cases of .Sal, bath desecration are becoming le.-s frequent. The habit of paying social and friendly visits on the Lord's Day seems to be break- ing down licfore tlie power of the Co.'^pel. Sabbath services are lietter attended than formerly.'' '1 liese results are the fruit of (lod's blessiiig on the preaching of tlie Word. Whilst deploring the fai-t tliat there is still consideiable .Sal)liatli desecration by railway trallic, the report reconls the opir.iiiii thit upon the divis'oii of the C. P. R., there is an earnest elT(.irt being made to reiluce Sabbatii work to a miiiimuni." And the thanks of the Synod are conveyeay. III. Basis. — Tlie basis of this Alliance is the Divine autiiority and the universal anil per- petual ol)ligation of tlie Sahbatii, as ordained by (!od at the luvation of tiie world, enjoined in tlie Kourth ('oniinandnieiit of tile Moral Law, and continued aniiiion that the powers to make laws for the peace, order and good goverunient of Canada, includes the power to secure the due observance of the Lord's Day by pi'oper legislation. \Ve are also of the opinion that legislation securing the better observance of the Loi'd's Day in matters pertaining to general railway traffic, the management of the postal smvice, and the iiMiiagcment of the railways and canals belonging to the Dominion, is in tlie iiigliest sense neci\ssary for promoting peace, order and good government in the Dominion of Caiuula.'' .Ml, John Charlton, M.P., and Prof, Wehlon, M.l'., have undertaken to draft and intro- duce at next session of I'atlianient a Pull embodying these suggestions. In the meantime the Alliance is sending out petitions for signature throughout the whole country. The following is the form of petition : — WHEIIEAS the due oliservance of the Lord's Day as a day of rest is essential to the best physical, intellectual, moral and social welfare of man, and WHElll'].\S the sacreilness of the Day is in many ways imperilled in our land, and not a few of our fellow uiti/.ens are already deprived of its inestimable blessings, we the under.iigned adult residents of Canada do hereby earnestly petition Vorii HoNiiKAr.i.K llorsic to enact such laws as will sei'ure the better observance of the Lord's Day, in the Dominion of Canada, in all matters per- taining to general railway traffic, the nianageiiiLnt of tlie Postal Service, and the manage- nient of the railways and canals belonging to the honiinion; as well as in all nuitters over which the Parliament has control ; and we humbly beg to press upon your consider- ation that tlie proper observance of tlie Lord's Day is in the higlu'st sense neces.sary for promoting peace, order and good government in a free Cliri.'^tian land ; And your petition- ers will ever pray. It is desirable that petitions* in support of tlie Bill to l)e introduced at tin; next Session of Parliament, should be sent from all .Synods, Assemblies, Conference's and other Church Courts, from all Associations, Alliances, etc., interested in promoting .Sabbath ol)ser\ance, as well as petitions signed by our congregations and the community generally.

Of these .'{1 tiiouglit tiuit all trains should he and coidd be stopped on the j/ird's l>ay, while the other .")(i favoured a greater or les^ suppression of the work. In respiinsi: to a similar ini|\dry by the liOid's I )ay Alliance, the Presidents of our twn greai trunk lines, ha\ e given courteous and interesting replies : J 'I'e.-ident \'an ITorne says: — " Our train i" langenients are forced u]ion us by th^' action of tlie Ameriran lines, witii \vhicli we are computing foi' tratlic, and 1 can see no way to ovi'rconie this dilliculty (Snnday tratlic) without destroying our through business, upon which tlie railway largely depends for support. In conclusion, he says: — " I ))eg to assure you that those responsible for the management of the railway are as .mxious as anyone can be to avoid all Sunday work, and that no ett'ort has been oi' will be sjiared to restrict it to the closest possible limits." Ml', .loseph Hick. on, l'>(sident o/ the < !rand Trunk Railway. wi'it<,'. :—" The (]Uestion freight trains are to be run on Sundays as a general rule, the excep- tion being only in the cases of live stock and perishable goods. "his is so far satisfactory. Hut it is plaiidy our duty to contiiuie to press the claims of the Sabbath upon the managers, directors, and stockdiolders of railways.

'2ne crowned with success. The following summary of answers, though much condensed, fairly represents the views and opinions your Committee has received : 1. To what extent do Ike erih of inlempe.rance prevail in i/our covf/refiation and rommnnity .<• The cheering testimony is almost universal that intemperance prevails onlj' to a very limited extent in the congregations c: our Churcli. One or two Presbyteries report all tiieir congregations as being practically free from this curse ; while others have similar intelligence from a large pro- portion of their sessions. Only one session reports that " Some of the ini-mlx r" are aildicted to drink.'' \\ hether the " bad preeminence " of this congregation is due to the less cantlui habits of its members, or to the more sensitive conscience of its session in reporting, we caiiiDt say ; but we are far from believing that this is the only ease in which strong drink has made hiuiiili- ating inroads even on the membership of our Cliurch. As to the prevalence of this evil in the comnmnity at large, the reports amply tes ify that strong drink is still a barrier to the spread and reception of < Jo -pel trutii ; that the domestic miseiy it creates is still both profound and wide-spread, and that vices still grow in clusters on this upas tree nourished by our social habits and protected by our laws. The mining districts of Nova Scotia still present a good field for tlie missionary of temperance, Pictou I'res'iytery tells us that fully one-third of our own, and nearly all the Belgian, miners are addicted to drink.

In tliOH«? Ontario counties where the Scott Act has hcen repealed, the change has in every (raHe been for the worse. There is absolutely no excejition to this. 'I'hiai, in some frontier town.s of Western Ontario, even those undi;r the Scott Act, is i,s alleged that drinking has rather increased than diminished. The law is said to ho systematically violated, largely owing to the proximity of a less law abiding community. Among the causes of improvement notiMl arc :— The influence of temperance societies ; the ediuiation of our people in temperaiu;e principles ; and, above all, to the expulsive power of a new atlection, which only the (iospel of Jesus can inspire. 'J'lie one specified cause of retrogres- sion, with the exception already noted as to frontier towns, is the repeal of the Canada Tem- perance Act, and the return to license. 3.

Subsidiary, yet important agencies arj mentioned, such as temperance societies, temperance literature, temperance lessons in Sabl)i.th School, Women's Christian Temperance Unions, and reading to the piuiple the deliverance of the General Assembly on the temperance (piestion. 4. What meaniircn arc adopted by the Sexmom and Snhbath School 'fcacherx to inxlrnrl /In j/oiith on /hi< sidijcct and to train them to hahitu of total alintinencc i Though one Presbytery speaks of its sessions as being " most of them indifferent spectatois of one of till! noblest movements of our time," yet such words of censure are entirely exception.d. Tbe other sessions in the same Synod are reported as faithful in this respect. 'I'hen tlu' men and women who curry on our Sabbath school work, and who probably constitute the most devoted band of workers our Church posses.ses, are spoken of as zealous and faithful in tlu' cause of temperance. The (Quarterly Lesson on Temperance is generally taught. In sotue schools IJands of Hope are formed and temperance literature diffused. And perhaps the strongest influence brought to bear on our young people in favour of total abstinence is the personal example of so large a number of our elders and our Sabl)ath school teachers. 5. /.s thf lair irithin fiour district a prohiliitnry or a licence lair ^ If local option, hof ix it enforced / What arc the cansfs of the partial or entire failure, of the laic ^ The area covered by a prohibitory law is considerably decreased since last year.

In Ontario this subject is taught in aliout half the sidiooLs. In (^ueheo some attention is given to it in city schoois, hut none in rural districts. In Manitolta and the Ninth west only three sessions answer in the alfinnative. In Nova Scotia the Hoard of l'",dncation has adojitecl a te.\t-l)ook ; but the use of it is optional with local hoards, ami the teachers get no credit for work devoted to temperance in the annual sunnnary of results. Hence, hut little is accom- plished, or even attempted. In the I'reshytery of I'ictou only one Session answers "yes"; and two or three other Presbyteries state that no such instruction is imparted in their public schools. In New Ih'unsw ick a most important advance has been made since the present \i'ai' begun, '{"lie Hoard of Kducation has placed a text-book in the eurritndum of tliesidiools Orid ti'miier- ance teaching begins as early as the little ones can understand it. In the higher grades it becoim a pronounced and systematic, and takes its place as an iicknowledg d and vital element in the education of youth. In Prince Kdward Island no provision is made for teaching this .subject in tlu! schools, liut the Synod has agreed to nuMuoriali/.e the Island (lovernmcnt on the matter ; and since the Government is also the iio.ird of I'Mucation for that Province, it is expected the Synod's action will bear fruit. In connection with this subject, it ought to be gratefully noted that the Ontario Minister of Education has arranged that henceforth, in the schools of this province, fair value v\ ill be given for results attained in teaching Scientilio Temperance. 8. Will ytu kiwUji furnish thf Conwiifde with any injormation that may Im hrl/ful in ///•«- sintinif the whole xuhjict of Temperance to the next Antrmlily .' The following are the chief sugg(!stions oll'ered : — " Teach the people," " Educate tlie children," " Let the Supreme CJourt enjoin ministers and teachers to keep the subject promin- ently before the people," " Let the .Moderator of Assembly issue a pastoral uiblress on tlu' subject," " Aim at a prohibitory law for the whole Dominion." On the whole, there ih much in these reports to inspire hope and courage. He must be a blind reader of history who sees ground for alarm in any seeming relhience of the teinpeiunce wave. All great movements have their ebl)s and Hows. Hut, as in the advancing tide, the losses are only temporary and seeming, M'hile the cain.s are ivrmanent and real. .Anything that shows the folly f)f compromise, that sends us to our knee.s and nei'ves us to heroic measures : that makes us ])atient and pitiful to the drunkard, yet remorseless as fate to the tr.itlic by which he is enslaved, should be hailed by this Assend)ly as a l)lessing, even when it comes in tlie form of thwartings and defeats. Your Connuittee, as instructed by last Assendjly, has taken steps to .secure the co-opera- tion of the other Churches, with a view of petitioning the Honiinion Houses of Parliament for a guneral prohibitory law for the whole Dominion. The following deliverance is recommended for adoption by this Assembly : 1. That we again declare our conviction that the general trafHc in intoxicating licjuor is contrary to the Word of (Jod; that our people should guard against any complicity with it in any form whatsoever ; that its total sujjpression by the state is the proper goal of all true IV.

APPENDIX No. 16. REPORT OF THE COMMITTEE ON THE DISTRIBUTION OF PROBATIONERS. In presenting their report for the year beginning with the first Sabbath of July, 1HH8, and closing with the last Sabbath of June, 1889, your Committee would remind the Assend)ly that the field of their operations includes only the three Synods of Montreal and Ottawa, of Toronto and Kingston, and of Hamilton and London. Of the six Presbyteries embraced in the bounds of the first of these, three, namely, Lanark and Renfrew, (xlengarry, and Brockville, did not >end in any reports for any of the (piarters, and Montreal once reported one vacancy, not giving the name nor getting supply through your Committee ; and only two reported vacancies, namely, (Quebec 4, and Ottawa 2, but the first of these sent in no report for the last (juarter, and the second only for the (juarter beginning with October. It will thus be seen that almost all the Presliyteries in that Synod have disregarded the instructions of the (ieneral Assembly two years ago, to report all vacancies in their bounds prepared to call, and obtain through your Connnittee either full or partial supply. Reports were received from all the Presbyteries in each of the other two Synods, although some of them omitted to send in .such for one, and some of them for two of the quarters, as Owen Sound and Barrie. It may, therefore, be said that there were only 19 Presbyteries out of 25 that looked to your Committee for such supply as they had at their disposal — and some of these not regularly. The total number of vacancies reported for the year was 74 — one name not given and no supply asked, and one which has since been reduced to a mission station, in the Presbytery of Barrie. Appendix No. I gives the names of these, and of the Presbyteries to which tliey belong. Appendix No. II contains the names of the probationers who applied for w k through your Committee. From this it will be seen that there were 39 on the JloU for the whole year or part of it. Of these the names of four were omitted in the exercise of the authority given to the Committee by the Assembly at its last meeting, to drop any name which had been on the list for two years. One has accepted an appointment to North Bay, under the Home Mission Com- mittee. Another has been labourfcig in the bounds of the Barrie Presbytery, and although appointments were given him in ignorance of that fact, till lately, yet yonr Committee cannot say to what extent he fulfilled them, and his name is now omitted. One has withdrawn to accept a situation which was open to him ; anotlier to labour in a region remote from Canada, and six for other reasons, some of them dissatisfied with the working of the Scheme. Nine have been settled. This leaves 18 still on the list. In the printed Scheme for the current quarter ther are 19, but one of these has been settled since that was prepared. The settlements during the year throughout the Synods covered by this report, have been ?>'A. which should leave 41 vacancies on the Roll, which is 27 fewer than those reported for the three Syno sion Station.

IlKPORT OF Cf)M\HTTEI<: ON KELKJlOUS INSTRUCTION IX PUBLIC SCHOOLS. The deliverance of last Assembly on this sul'ject was, "That the Assembly i-xpress i;s unaliattil conviction of the importance of religious instruction as an intej^ral part of Public School eiiucation ; appoint a committee to watch over legislation on this subject in the different Provinces, and endeavour, where practicable, to influence it in the direction of the expressed views of '.his Church ; to co-operate foi this end with any similar committees of other branches of the Church ; and report to next Assembly." So far as your Committee are aware, there has been no actual legislation calling (or special attention ; but it is understood that, iu some of the Province?, there is a prospect of leijislation which miy require the careful consideration of the Church, It will bs especially necessary to assert the principle that schools receiving direct or indirect State aid be required to devote the greater part of their time to the work of giving a full and liberal secular education, and not be permitted to serve as institutions for propagating sectarian tenets. This Church should protest j. nst any infringement of this principle in new legislation, and use every influence in its power lo remedy evils already existing in contravention thereof. Some of our people are suffering wrong in the Province of (Quebec, in localities where they aro not sufficiently numerous to have schools of their own, by being obliged to send their children to schools permeated in all their exercises by a spirit of aggressive sectarianism. The Committee referred last year to the use, In Public .Schools of Eastern Ontario, of text- books saturated with teaching of a character offensive to the religious sentiment of v.jr people. Evidence since received confirms the truth of that statement. Hut now that the Government is investigating the matter, your Committee are hopeful that the evil will l)e remedied with all rea- sonable speed, and that it will be in their power to report some steps in the right direction to next General Assembly. The Committee are glad to learn that in liritish Columbia, where the law makes no provision for religious exercises, a considerable number of the schools are opened with prayer, and some of the school-books contain fragments of religious instruction. Attention is now being drawn to the subject in that Piovince, and it is to be hoped that gain may result. The Committee have received a document sent to the Moderator of the General Assembly by the Anglican Synod of the Diocese of Toronto, suggesting the preparation, by representatives of the several religious bodies of Ontario, of a "Short Compendium of ihe Chief Truths of Christian Faith and Practice," to be used in the regular studies of the schools, as also the restoration of the " ' Les- sons in Scripture History,' which were formerly to be found in the Public School Readers." Our Church, we believe, is in full sympathy with the object contemplated in these suggestion^. In regard to this whole question of religious instruction in Public Schools, the time has surely arrived when the process of Protestants surrendering all and gaining nothing should cease. Experi- ence has shown the folly of attempting to conciliate the Roman Catholic Church by the seculariza- tion of our schools. The result has rather been to produce increased activity in the establiahment of Separate Schools, on the ground that Public Schools are " Godless institutions." Ii is an intol- erable hardship to the parents of a Protestant nation, to be deprived of the privilege of securing the aid of the teachers in imparting to the children under their charge some knowledge of the historical facts and fundamental truths of that Bible which has been well designated as " the birthright of every Protestant chi'd, and the inalienable right of the Protestant parent ; " — and all in the vain hope of conciliating the Roman Catholic Church. Mad the effort and ingenuity devoted to this attempt been employed in the perfecting of a fair and workable scheme of .Scripture teaching, we believe there would have been no complaint except on the part of those who are irrecon''ilably opposed to the principles of modern civilization. Without entering upon details, your Committee are satisfied that a basis for Bible instruction might be f)und in the scheme of Scripture Readings, now authorized in the Pr^vin:e of Ontario and elsewhere, by following out the suggestion of the Inspectors' Section of the Ontario Teachers' Association, and instead of forbidding all comment and explanation, only prohibiting doctrinal ami sectarian explanation, so as to leave opoortunity open for explanation and drill in Scripture know- ledge. Safeguarded by a stringent conscience clause, this wjuld alfjrd a reasonible solution of the question ; although, from an educational point of view, a scheme graduated accordin;^ to the age of the pupils, such as was appended to last year's report, would be preferable.

The (isneral Assembly, while ree()gnizin^J that the chief object of the Sa'e in ret;ar(l to the educa- tion of the younj; is to secure full and liberal instruction in secular subjects, and that therefore the greater part of the time of every school, aided liirectly or indirectly by the S'a'e, should be dtvoted to this object, holds that a grievous wrong is done when secular instruction is placed in such a posi- tion as to disparage Christianity, or leave the young unacrpiainted with the fuii'lamental historical facts and moral teachings of God's Word. The General Assemjjly still adheres firmly to the belief that the Hible sh.iuld be made ir. the I'ablic Schools the subject of regular, systematic instruction, and rejoices to i)elieve th.it a rule to this elTect, combined with a conscience clause, giving full relief to every objecti v, and with a clause empowering trustees to dispense with such instructicjn when they deem it expedient, would be most acceptable to the dit'lerent branches of the C'hristian Church, The (ieneral Assembly appoints a committee to watch over legislation on this sulijcci in the litferent Provinces, and endeavour, where ijraeiicab'e, to infl lence it in the direc.on "f the expressed views of this C' lurch ; to take steps for securing the co-operation of other branches of the Christian Church for this end ; and to report to next (ieneral Assenilily. G. M. GRANT, ToRONi'o, /nue /S, /SSl ytery lake action in the matter, and appoint some pi rson ti t;ike -picial (.horgc and press "he claims of the Fund. A copy of the circular was also sent to each nrir ist .r in chari;e, and, in the case of vacancies, where an elder's name could be found, a copy was aiidres'^ed to him. In .hat way it may be said r.eurly every congregation was reach il. The ipathy and inilifference to the '-uffering annuitants, on the part of many congrega- tions miy be jud.ed from the facts inilicated by ihe following Financial Statements, .\feai. while, it may be -tatcd ;hat the low slate of the Fund has again compelled the Commiilee to onler pay- men's up to $200 oi;ly. so 'hat for ;he year no annuitant his received more than that sum, a: d iven ihen there is a dtlicit in the Ordinary Fund. The simple fact is, that instead of having the Ministers" Rates 1,0 to capital, and the interest from capital used in supplementing annui;ics in the cases ' f the m^re needy brithrcn, they have ijf necessity been used in making ordina.y payments, and even then '.here is still due to the annuitants the sum of $895, and an adv> rse balance uf $715 40, or a total tlelicit of $1,610.40.

There is a d' crease in the Minister." kate», bu; that arises from the number of ministers connecting with the Fund duriiiR the previous )< >r .nnd paying; lor past years. Two of the annuitants, namely, the Rev. K. Rogers and the Rev. N\ . M. (,'hri-nc, having taken regular work, have only received partial payments, and while they arc roi dropped from the list of annuitan's, payments to them are suspended so long as they contiinii.' i:i the active work and are in receipt of regular irxome. H.id they drawn the full anounts and the other annul tants been paid the sums pail by the rules, $13,^55 55 would have been recpiired, or only -.l.gluly under the amount asked by the Committee. Two of the brethren whose names appear in the list of annuitants have been called from earth to the Home above, namely, the Rev. J DufTanc' the Rev. 1), McMillan, the latter since the closi;ig of the financial year. The Commi'.tee has given serious consideration to the raising of the proposed endowment of two hundred thousand dollars. The Rev. William Rums, whose work in connection with Knox College endowment was approaching completion, was asked to accept the position of Agent, and after arrange- ments had been made with the Board of Knox College by which he would be able to t'lnish the w ^rk for the Board and al- give a part of his time to the work of this Committee, he accc[)ted the position. The collej; work occupied his time until a few nunlhs ago, but recently in connection with the Convener, considerable canvassing has been done in M')ntreal and (ju bee. The utterly un])repared state of the Church manifested by the great ignorance existing as to the Fund ii^clf and its claims upon the Cnurc'' members, presented an almost insuperable barrier to succes-.

He was kindly received ijy ihe-,e courts of the Church and a deep interest on their part expressed in the Fund. How far that intere-t will show i s reality by largely increased giving remains to i)e seen ; but the Com mitlee feel.-. C'.'iivinced that if ministers will only be inore faithful in bringing the necessities and claim; of the Fund before their people, there will be no shortage in the ordinary fund, and the secur- ing of the endowment will be greatly lielped. The following mi.iiiters have signified to the Coinmittee their desire to conned with the Fund, and it i-: recommended that they lie allowed to do so under the rules: Waiter Coulthird, I'iclon ; \Vm, Niciioll, l'.road,vi(;w ; T. /.

SeconJ — With reference to the applications of the Kevs. Andrew Wilson and David Camelon, the Committee cannot recommend the Assembly to grant leave to retire and go upon the Funil, a> they are both under seventy y ?rs of age, and in the case of Mr. Wilson, there is no evi- dence of intnmity, while in that of Mr. Camelon the evidence of infirmity is deemed insufificient. 77*/: (/—That the Couiniiitce does not fee its way clear to recommend the granting of the application of the Rev. A. Currie, as he is on'y 5S years of age ; it considers the evidence of intirmily insufii;icnl, but refers the case to the Assembly for its judgment, with the recommendation that Mr. Currie be icquirid to jipjiear bef('oit!i-\V'est, no returns of any sort have been received. Your Committee can but iiopo that th' '■one of those actually reporting may characterize the numerous defaulters ami that in vh :>.rs to come greater regard may be paid by Presbyteries or Synods to the injunctions >>i yoiti v nicr- able Court.

" uncertain sound. " The conviction deepens fr* I.— KESPE('TIN<; TilE KLuKi.SHIl'. Tliree (juestions bear upon the functions of the elders. Tlie suljstance of the replies fur- nished indicate, with regard to the first of these : That the elders " perform their duties ?!i prayer meetings," etc., with commendable and efficient fidelity ; and tluit, in general, they have " districts assigned to them," the families in which they visit with regularity, especially in connection with the seasons of administering the communion. lOxceptions are indeed ?iot«l. All elders arc not impressed with a sense of their official duties. All do not realize their privi- But in the majority of the reports there is no trom year to year that tlie strength of Presby- terianisin depends to a degree well nigh incalcuhible, under the great Head of the Church, upon the earnest, persistent " works of faitli and lal)ours of love " discharged by our nolile army of elder.". C< niparatively few Sessions report that they held special prayer meetings for I)lcssing on the oc'iigi'egotii^ns ; but this practice appears to be on the increase, and nearly all speak of devoting ,i Ai 'U,'(;n to iMs subject at tlie ordinary meetings of Session. Wlierever this duty is upheld till rjports spciik of the beneficial results, alike as regards the services of tlie pastor and the edification of the people. o.'uS' ri i- w U cii, as expressed in oi of tlie returns, " elders arc only eldf.v* in name, not ik lii'e o.' ii .serv.c," the 'rest di.- ■ ou ■ iging is that of a Presbytery within the bounds of the Syncu if " tiiiro!

' of thciii. In a few cases one or two attend the Sabbath Sthool and I'rayer Meeting, but ill mo c viai :, c"f n that is not done." Anotlier Presbytery witliin tiie same l)ounds reports its "fear tl\at v?', / fiw liave regular systematic visits from the elders." On the other iiand, one Presl v.fir'/ \r '.'•.-'.

(a) On the Sabbath the almost uniform answer is " well," or " remarkably well." One of the reports from a Presbytery within the Maritinio Provinces says : " The terms employed in speaking of the attendance at religious services on Sabbaths are almost, without exception, of a inns'; encouraging character. Tliere are probably few, if any, localities in tliis or in any other laud in which the sacred Day of Rest is better observed, outwardly at least, than within the l)0uuds of this Presbytery." The Report of the Synod of Montreal and Ottawa speaks in iiijually cheering terms "except in winter in some congregations" of one of the Presbyteries, " 'There so many men are away a the woods." From the scattered reports of Sessions which i\!t,-e come into the liands of your Committee similar testimonies could in well nigli every instance be presented. The conclusion Neems warrantable that the ulpit is by no means losing its liold upon tlic regard of the people, and gives no token of ceasing to be operative over their life. "The Spirit of God," to ((uote from our noble Shorter Catechism, continues to " make the preaching of the Word an effectual means of convincing and con- verting sinners, and of building them up in holiness and comfort, tluouyh faitli unto salvation." Like remarks may be made with regard to the Conuuunion Ser\ ires, at which, on the whole, the attendance both absolute and relative to the numbers on the conniiuniou rolls, would appear to be steadily — in some cases remarkably — on the increase. This is not the fact, however, at least so generally, with the attendance at the \*eekly Prayer Meeting. Rarely does any report use a stronger expression t!ia:i " fairly good," and cases are mentioned of congregations here and there which have no Prayer Meeting. The >iport of one Session in the Maritime Provinces gives the noteworthy presentation of "four Iruj'or Meetings on Wednesday evening, two cottage Prayer Meetings, and a young people's Sunday morning at 10 a.m., say 300 attending in all these." This congregation, it ne»;ds hardly Ije said, is conspicuous for tiie devoted character of its elders, and goes far to substantiate the statement contained in the report of the Presli\tery to which this congregation beloiii,'Sj tluit "a working eldership is the backbone of Presbyterian vigour and development.'' 1-y compari- son with former years, the tone of the reports as to Prayer Meeting attendance may be ciianic- terized, on the whole, as hopeful. But much remains to be clone ere this " means o grace" c.ui be said to occupy the position in the organization of our system warranted by its in]: "tance. lino, not s of the 111 their 1 that is Meeting, s reports ir liand, given of tation of f ' ' two III. — RELICIOUS LIFE IN THE FAMILY AND CONf;REG.\TION (a) As to family worship in the household, the returns leave us ver' luch in the dark. The answers are vague. It is not possible to form any definite or even a| 'jximately accurate estimate to what extent this time-honoured custom is observed. It i- te certain that in very many households it is neglected. Might it not be to edification di- our venerable Court take two steps : (I) To issue a pastoral letter of wlrch family worship luld bo the theme? and (2) To appoint a committee to prepare a manual containing a lection, ry (v/itii the passages of Scripture for every day either indicated or printed at length), togct i- witli suitable hymns and prayers for family use? The circulation of sucli a manual, stai with the approval of the General Assembly, and containing, say, prayers for every da; .n tin; week or month, would, your Committee venture to bi 'ieve, eflect not a little towards securing a larger measure of regard among our peoj^le to the practice of family worship. (l)) As to .Sabbath observance, while tlie day is spoken of generally as lieing well, or fairly M'ell, kept, accorion otations. The Synod of Montreal and Ottawa lecommends (1) That the General Assembly send ilown the l{\W tions on the state of religion so that thiy may be in tiie hands re(|uested to f the Sessions congregation.s, before tl.'o close of the year — that eacli ]iastnr lie directeninieiidt.-d to the ]'resl)yteries ; (8) ^linisters are enjoined to lueacli frequently on the subji'Ct of family rehgion, and to (U'ge the duty of family worship ; and (4) The Synod «uu!d urge that reports be v.ritten le<,,nbly, as nuicli difficulty was exjierieiiced in (leci|ihering the writing. In conchision, after reviewing ttie reports and considering the character of the answers furnislied, whether by Sessions, Presbyteries, or the sole reporting Synod, your Committee beg to submit for deliberation by your venerable Court, whettier tlu' most -satisfactory method of securing a really instructive account of the " State of Religion " has thus far bc^en reached. The cl.assitication of topics with' regard to wliicli infonu.-.tion is de-sirable, as given in tlie pr- ■■ i. schedule of (luestioiis, could not, perhai)S, be improved upon. And so far as tjutstii'iis can be . ne ms of eliciting such informa- tion, those now in use would seem to be admirably adapted for their intended purijose. And yet, the results can hardly be said to meet that ])uri>ose. Says one report : " The answers given are for the most jsart very brief. The wuvd 'monosyllabic' would make an excellent (iescrii)tion of not a f(^w of tliem. Tin fault is not altogether in those who gi\e the answers. I'^rom the way in which the questi.ins are put, little I'lse can be done than give a bald affirmative or negative. We feel.'' adds this report, " tliat ahliough the originality cir independence of many poor ministers m.iy not be very great, they wcaud do intter in telling al>out the state of religion if left to tlh'ii own resources." This may be (picstioned : imt as to the " monosyllabic" asiiect of the returns in general, there can bo no cpiestion. I'roperly .speaking, your Committee venture to think the report on the State of Religion ought to be a summa.-y of all the other rep(U'ts submitted to the General Assembly. Even those bearing upon the foreign tiel.ls ought not to be excepted. I'or although the psults as regards conversion and the like in thc'^" ♦^"'f''' ■' as nuvnifested liberality towar''! missionary objects, does fairly jiresent itself for comment. Such a report, bast.'d U]»nt the Statistical Return)- S. S. Returns, Temperance Returns, etc., etc., might suggest hints and embody conclusions worthy of being preserved in a pernuinent f(jrm, and might be invaluable for the guidance of the Church. Fm-thermore, assuming flat the jiresent method of obtaining returns on the State of Religion s'.. all be continued, your Ciuu littee beg. also, to inquire whether the fact that the questions are |irint< d in the .Vets and Proceed ir.p;'.* of each successive year ought not to suffice, without subjecting the Church to the additional expense of i>rinting these questions and issuing them se)iarately to the I'lesbj-teries. And lastly, your Committee retpiest the fJencral Assembly to enjoin more urgently upon the ChUiCM courts to send in their returns to the Convener more (iromptly. All of which is respectfully submitted, D.

Appendix No. 24. APPENDIX TO REPORT ON THE STATE OF RELIGION. ^•' In compliance with tlje injunction of the General Assembly, the Convener has larctully collated the Reports received, after tiie foregoing was compiled, from the Synods of Hamilton and London, of Toronto and Kingston, of ^lanitoha and the North-West, and from the I'resKy teries of Guelph, and of Lunenbury and Shelburne. It would have been gratifying and hel|'tnl to iiave been in possession of the information contained in these documents at an earlier dute, documents of which it is diflicult to say which is the most adnurable. That from (juelph, f. ij., while complaining somewliat of tlie " mode of conducting in(iiiiry into the State of Heligion," and objecting especially to the (jueries bearing upon tiie duties nf the Eldership since tlie oifice is tid ri/um aiil culpam, presents in tabulated form a summar_, nt every answer given to every (question by eighteen congregations, four hundred and thirtytwr) times in all. The able Report from the Synod of Hamilton and London, after stating that in the opinidii of one :" jsbytery (Bruce) it would "be preferable, under two or three general headings, to ask for as fui. and explicit a statement of the religious and spiritual condition of the congregation and conmuuiity as the Session can give," adds : " If the present ((uestions, winch are compara- tively precise, and bear upon a wide extent of Christian life and work, receive, as they do, fn.ni some Sessions, answers so vague and so indefinite as to be of little value, it may well be doubted whether a few general (jucstions will secure more full and satisfactory information." The Reports from the Synods of Toronto and of Manitoba are both furnished in printed form, which most materially diminishes the labour of examination. On a careful review of these additional Reports, it does not appear to the Convener that any statements contained in the Report of your Committee and adopted by the {Jenera) Assembly, need be modified. Supplemented these statements might be, and some little variety of tone might be imparted ; but the net results would not be altered, unless in the way of empliasi.sing the encouraging aspect presented by the work of our beloved Zion as a wliole. Several of these Reports submit recommendations. The substance of these is embodied in the following, submitted by your Committee, and adopted by the Assembly, and which are, in large measure, a transcript of the recommendations appended to the clear and full Report fur- nished by the Synod of Toronto and Kingston. All which is respectfully submitted. D. MACRAE. BEC0MMENDA''10NS ORDERED BY THE ASSEMBLY TO BE AI'I'ENUED TO THE KEI'ORT ON THE STATE OF RELIGION. I.

Special thanks are due to VV. IJ. Scarth, Ks(|., M.P., for the interest shown in this work. The C.P.R. Co. also baa granted several free sites and made great reductions in other cases. L. A. Hamilton, Esq., Laud C«)mnussioner, has been most obliging. The compjiny has continued the policy of granting a rel)atc of .S3,J\ per cent, on all freight charges for hunbcr, and in some cases greater concessions still have been made. ^'our Hoard are pleased to report that through the Colonial Committee of the Chur;h of Scotland the sum of flOO lias been received for the work of church erection. It is to be hojied that the excellent example thus set may be followed up and that members of the parent churciies may help to give visibility to Presbyterianism in the Lone Land. Large nundjcrs of Scottish and North of Ireland imndgrants are settling in this country, and to follow them with the gospel that made the Mother Land great is surely a duty and a privilege. The best thanks of tlie Hoard are due and arc heartily tendered for this timely contribution. Tlie immigration to this country has this spring been the largest since 1882. Of the new- comers a large percentiige are I'rcsbyterians. They are increasing the strength of older settle- ments and exieufling the area of occupation. The Church must be prepared to extend aiil to them in their eflforts to erect places of worship. To enable the Assembly and tlie friends of the Fund to know the character of the popula- tion, it may be stated that according to the census taken by the Dominion Government iu 1 SSti, the three leading Protestant denominations stood as follows : — Presbyterians, 28,40(i ; Angli- cans, 23.200 ; Methodists, 18,(>48 ; and that the rate percent, of increase between IKHI and 1886 for these denominations respectively was 104.4, 69.2 and 98.7. The rate for the whole Prov- ince was 74.4. As stated in a previous report, 32 per cent, of the white population of tiie North- West 'Perritories are Presbyterians. For the purposes of this Fund very little money has been received except from Ontario. The Maritime Provinces have sent their sons and daughters to the North-West in large num- bers, and it is to be hoped tluit they may extend a helping hand in overtaking their spiritiial wants. What the Hunter Fund has done for Nova Scotia, the Church and Manse Building Fund is intended to do for the North-West. The settlement of numy debts of long standing and the arrest of building during the winter account for the balance at credit. The building operations of summer will likely wipe it out. To the generous friends — especially in Ontario and Quebec — who have given such valuiiblc assistance in the work of church erection and extension in the North-West, we offer our cordial thanks.

The Synod of the Maritime Provinces has a inember of Committee in each Presbytery, ei Presbytery has a Committee, the Convener of which is generally the member of the Synod s Ct each Presbytery has a Committee, the Convener of which is generally the member of the Synod's Com- mittee. The lines along which we are working are : — 1. Wiping out arrears of stipend. Presbyteries are giving attention to this with some success. M the close of 1887 arrears reported amounted to $5,368.00 ; at the close of iSMS they were $3,.SS2.oo, a reduction of 27 per cent. Five Presbyteries have no arrears. Three more arc practi- cally free. The other three need special attention, and particularly the Presbytery of Sydnc^y, in which are nearly half of the arrears in the whole Synod. Ten yeais ago the amount was nearly ten thousand dollars, but since that time there has been a constant decrease, and we hope that in a short time arrears will be a thing of the past. This blot on our statistics cannot be too ([uickly wiped away. 2. We are seeking to secure the adoption of the weekly offering in raising ministers' salaries. The Envelope System seems to be the best adapted to secure the best results. About one-quarter of our congregations have adopted this system. (^)uite a large number pay quarterly by envelope ; others continue to raise the salary by collectors. < >uarterly payments to the minister is the rule. Some pay monthly. The experience of congregations proves that the system of weekly contribu- tion is the mcst successful. All that is needed to meet and sweep away all objections raised against the weekly offering is a faithful trial. 3. We are also aiming to secure regular collections for all the Schemes of the Church from all our congregations. .Ministers, Sessions and people are gradually waking up to a sense of obliga- tion, and the blanks in our statistics in the columns devotftd'to the Schemes of the Church an* year by year becoming less numerous. The number of blanks in the seven columns, viz., (' illege, Hume Missions, Aged and Infirm Ministers, Augmentation, French Evangelization, and Assembly Fund, in the statistics of 1S87, for the iSo charges, were 292 In the corresponding columns for 1888 the number of blanks was 234, n reduction of 20 per cent. 4. The most imjiortant pirt of our work is the propagation of the principles of Systematic Httneticence, and securing the adoption and efHcient working of better methods of financial manage- ment in our congregations. Since the last meetmg of the Synod (in October last). the Committee have prepared and issued a tract entitled "Systematic ISeneticence ; Principles and .Methods." f opies of this tract have been sent to any congregations asking for them, in such numbers as desired, and in this way 14,000 copies have been distributed. We hope by next Synod to circulate the whole 20,000 printed, and thus put a copy in nearly every family in our Church in the Liwer Provinces. We expect to meet the expense of printing and circulating by free contributions from the Sessions. The demand for the tract indicates that a wide-spreid interest exists, and it is ours to continue endeavouring to increase that interest by every means. II. THE WESTERN PART OF THK CHURCH. Only two of the Presbyteries have sent in their reports to the Convener, so that we have little to report. One has been received from Prandon showing ihnt very earnest etiorts have been used in thit Presbytery to promote Systematic Peneficence by the circulation of suitable literature and other means, which efforts have been followed by good results. Toronto Presbytery also reports faithful work. Efforts have been made to introduce into every congregation in the Presbytery some method of systematic giving, both for the support of ordin ancfs among themselves and the adoption of the weekly contritiutions by envelope for the former, and the monthly contribution by envelope for the latter has been recommended. Also the a(loption of ihe principle of dedicating and giving of .some definite proportion oi their means by the members of the Church, which should not be less than one-tenth of the income. Your Committee have but one recommendation for adoption by Assembly as follows : —That the Committee be re-appointed. Wm. Caven, 1 <^„-., M. G. Henry,/-' it Conveners, (i) APPENDIX No. 37. REPORT OF COMMITTEE ON CHURCH ARCHITECTURE. The Committee on Church Architecture beg leave to report that they have consulted wiih several architects, some of whom have already prepared plans, while others have expressed thtir willingness to do so during the present year. They recommend thai the Committee be reappointed, consisting of Mr. James Cumberland, Convener ; Messrs. D. M. Gordon, D. J. Macdonnell, Dr. Thorburn, Dr. J . Robertson, James Croil, W. Drysdale, and Colonel Duff. /«»»e, /SSg, Respectfully submitted, D. J. Macdonnell, On behalf of the Convener. APPENDIX No. 28. REPORT OF THE COMMITTEE ON '« THE PRESBYTERIAN RECORD," 1888-89. Thr' «ge circulation for the past twelve months was 40,891, an increase of 2,500 copies on the avCk ' the previous year. The number issued for the current month of June was 43,500 copies, being 4,3 , more than at same date last year. The increase of circulation has been largely in the mission fields of the Church, which have been supplied at a reduced price. About 3,000 copies are in this way circulated in Manitoba, the North-west Territories and British Columbia, i,oco copies in the Muskoka and Algoma districts, and a considerable number in the mission fields of New Brunswick and Nova Scotia, including the Island of Cape Breton. The results from this new departure are, so far, encouraging. In many remote and sparsely settled localities, where there has been little literature of any kind in circulation, and where the services of the Church have been interrupted by long intervals, the "Record" has been gladly received by the missionary and his people and has been the means of awakening a livelier interest in the work of the Church. The number of congregations that supply each family with a copy of the " Record " is also increasing, and it is hoped that before long many more will do likewise. The receipts for the year, including $2,555.75 brought forward from last year, are $12,556.31.

In the course of tin; yt^ar IKHS there were received into full communion in the ditferent (;oiu're- Rations 11,S:>2 ))ersons on their own profession, who thus put on the Lonl Jesus ( 'hri.st and declared themselves hid followers, and ti,''>24 iiy certificate, and who cannot therefore he properly rc^faided as nn accession to the Church so far as numherH are concerned, for what was the ^ain of one coiiK'reis'a- tion was the loss of another. In 1HS7 the numhers were 12,471 on professiiritual life of the saint been c|uickeiied, hut those have been diawn to the Lord who had been stranjfers to His cross? Without entering' into iletails, your Comiiiittee would merely mention that, combining the accessions upon iirofession and ui>oii certificate, there is a decrease in the Synod of the Maritime Provinces in each, also in those of lluinilton and London, and of Manitoba and the North-West Territories, exceiit in the additions upon profession in the latter; and an increase in the other Synods. Turning' to the column in which the numbers of communicants removiiifj from the place in wliidi they had heen worshipping to other place.s, at greatiir or less distances, or taken away by death, are entered, they find them, when summed \i]\ amounting' to l(),.')t)0, as au'ainst '.•,'.(17 in the pre\ ious year, sliowinjj an increase in this item of f)4;{. No judgment can be basecl on th- se fi(,'ures as to Imw far the numerical streni,'th of the f'huroh has been affected by the removals. They siiiiply indicate liow far members of our congregations have been changing their jilaces of abode, from whatever motive, or their congregational or ecclesiastical connection, or it may be, althou;,di we are persuailed that such cases are very few, cutting' themselves off from the communion of saillt^ because of a change of view regarding the authority and obligation of the Divine Woi-d and Ordinances, and the iiist;mce.s in which IX No. 2!).

Your Committee learn that nearly all congregations close their year with the calendar year. Only 1 Presbytery answers " No" to the question on this point ; 2 reply " Nearly all," 1 " Many do not," 1 "Most of them," 1 -'Generally," 1 " All but 1," 28 answer "Yes" without any modifica- tion, and 1 that the congregations close their accounts at the end of the year, but not their contribu- tions to Schemes. There are not more than 8 Presbyteries which have not Committees on Statistics. In 2 or 3 cases the clerk is reported as charged with the preparation of these. Finances. It is not the intention of your Committee to dwell so fully upon the Financial Statements received from congregations, not because they regard tliem as of minor importance, but because they are desirous of not imduly extending their report. They would remark that if they had reason to complain of incomijlete returns in the Statistics they have equal reason to complain of the sanio in the Finances. Even in cases who 'e the entries have been filled in by persons who must be acquainted with business forms and usages, > .ere are omissions and manifest errors. It would be well if Clerks of Presbyteries could call attention to these and have them corrected, or report them to their Pres- byteries that they might interfere. Such returns to be reliable and of permanent value should be full aud hccnrate. In the 11 Presbyteries of the Synod of the Maritime Provinces the amount of stipend reported as received from all sources was 811!t,.')ll, the preceding year it was 8156,109, a tailing off of $tj,.598, to be accounted for in some degree by some congregations having failed to make returns in the latter year which had reported in the former. In the Synod of Montreal and Ottawa, with 6 Presbyteries, the receipts for the same purpose were $139,049, against .?13(i,780 in the previous year, showing an increase of .S2,269 ; Quebec and Montreal showinir a decrease ; each of the other 4, but chiefly Brockville, showing an increase. The stipend received from all sources in 1887 in the Synod of Toronto and Kingston, with 10 Presbyteries, was .^204,924 ; in 1888 it was §206,633 ; being an increase of .SI, 709, several of the Pres- byteries reporting a decrease, but Whitby, Orangeville, Barrie, Owen Sound and Saugeen showing an increase. In the Synod of Hamilton and London .S173,2C3 were received in 1887, and $172,344 in 1888. In the Synod of Manitoba and the North-West Territories .?65,373 were received in 1887 and "■"0,269 in 1888. Vdding in delayed returns, the total recet])ts under this heading were .$744,672, agaius*^ 8738,086 It!'- p.'eceding year, an increase of .$6,586, and if the returns had been fuller the increase Would liave ,^..en more marked. The next two entries show the state of giving by the people, the first one being " Stipend prom- 's 1 by congr'.gation alone," and the second "Stipend paid by congregation alone." The aggref/ate -)f , :if) lormer was $691,338 and of the latter $700,53-5, showing an increase in the one of .$28,454, and in the other of .$21,2.H8. Here the evil of incomplete returns appear. In not a few instances the proper entries are withheld. This is sometimes the case when a charge has been vacant part of the year, or all the year, whereas the payments made for supply should have been copied from the treas- urer's books, whatever the amount and to whomsoever handed over, whether settled pastor or pnjbationer. It is the duty of your Committee again to report arrears of stipend, scarcely a Presbytery showing a clear record on thib item. Five such are in the Synod of the Maritime Provinces, and their names are worthy of being produced, namely, Wallace, Pictou, Lunenburg and Shelburne, Miramichi, and Newfoundland. One, Glengarry, is found in tiie Synod of Montreal and Ottawa. Not one in the Synod of Toronto and Kingston, or that of Manitoba and the North-West Territories, and only 2, Paris and Huron, in that of Hamilton and London. The total amount reported is .$10,814, but the previous year it was $15,880, an evident and great improvement. There is an increase, as reported in the Presbytery of Sydney, of $142 ; a decrease in that of Victoria and Bichmond of $492 ; in that of Halifax of .$200 ; in Pictou of $75 ; in Prince Edward Tsand of $171 ; in Lunenburg and Shelburne of $1.55 ; in St. John of $139 ; and in Miramichi of $263. In that Synod the arrears in 1887 were .$5,368, more by far than the half of this due by congregations in 2 Presbyteries ; in 1888 they were $3,86.5. In each of the other Svnods there is a decrease ; in that of Montreal and Ottawa, from $1,2.56 to $732 ; in that of Toronto and Kingston, from .$2,167 to .$2,080 ; in that of Hamilton and ' :ondon, from $2,546 to $1 ,146 ; and in that of Manitoba and the North-West Territories, from $4,413 to $2,632. Appkndix No. 20. vu. were The total amount expeniled on church or manse during the year waa $501,298, against ?.'W8,:-{;<0 in 1S87, tthowiiig the lnrt;e increase of S102,'J68, but your Committee must refer to the sheet contain- ing the summation of cohimns for the particular I'resbyteries for more i)recise information as to the amount expendeil in each, or to the reports of Presbyteries for the names of congregations in which outhiv for this purpose has been made. There were !S<">0,915 expended for other congregational purposes, against .'SHi:{,()72, an increase for the year over the preceding one of ■'$37,243. The total expenditure for strictly congregational purposes was 8l,5r),5,8G7, or an increase on the sum given in last report of .SUi2,t)4l. the figures there being $1,393, 22(1. At its last meeting the Gener.al Assembly adopted a recommendation of the Board of Manage- ment of Knox College to abolish the Common College Fund, and ordered "That the name'i of all the colleges should be inserted in the schedule of Schemes itisued to each congregaticm of the Church, leavirij,' it to the congregations to distribute their liberality among the several colleges as they shall deem best." Your Committee accordingly on preparing their questions to congregations inserted the name of each college, and gave each a distinguishing letter, in their order from east to west. They could not, however, give a separate column to each on the sheet sent down to Presbyteries to be filled in with the returns from congregations. The reasons for doing so were two, first the di'li- unlty of procuring a large enough sheet of the ijuality required, and secondly that some of the cobunns would not be required by not a few of the congregations, and thus there would be a waste of space. The plan they adopted was to rule off a small column on the sheet, heading it with the distingiushing letters above referred to, on the understanding that Presbytery Clerks in copying congregational returns would insert the appropriate letter, or letters, if more than one college received contributions, and the amount in the ne\t colmnn. Most of the Presbytery Clerks saw the design, and carried it out. In a few cases the distingiushing letter was not insertetl, and the amount con- tril)uted was ;:ivi-n in one sum. Your Committee, therefore, cannot report the sum appropriated to mrh of the colleges, and they must refer those wishing information on this point to the accounts of the Tre:is\ircr. They hopi', however, that in next year's report, and in future (mes, Clerks of Presbyteries will attend to tliis matter. After these necessary remarks, your Committee now proceed to bring before you the contribu- tions by the Church to the different Schemes in which she is engaged, and for which she appeals to the liberality of those connected with her and concerned for her i)ro8i)erity. The to;al income for Colleges was .§21,593 (Ordinary) against §10,832 in 1887, and (Special) S50,423 against .?21,999; and 88,0.50 Manitol)a College ; the aggregate of the one being !?72,01(i, and of the other 810,881, a large increase, which we must refrain from considering in its details. In the year 1887 the jmyments as reported to your Committee for the Home Mission Fund were 843,073 ; in 1888 they were 844,810, a small increase. In the former year S32,.5(i2 wt-re contributed to the Augmentation of Stipends Fund ; in the latter 830,201, a decrease of liberality towards a Fund which should commend itself to every one that acknowledge that the Gospel ministry is a divinely aj)pointeil and permanent institution, and that those who are called to fill it should be free from the distracting influence of anxiety about the concerns of this life. In the one year 822,752 were paid for French Evangelization purposes, in the other 828,134, which indicates an increased degree of interest in the working of that Scheme. In the one year !5G9,()06 were reported for Foreign Missions, in the otlier 877,921, an increase of 88,315, and it will be seen shortly that this and much more is owing to the energy and zeal of the ^Voman's Foreign Missionary Society. In the one year $8,060 were raised for the Aged and Infirm Ministers' Fund, in the other 810,140, showing an increase of 82,080. In the one year 85,449 were paid to the Widows' and Orphans' Fund, in tiie other $5,801, a decrease of .8352— small it may api)ear, but too laige. In the one year .83,487 were contributed to the Assembly's Expense Fund, in the other 83,808, an increase of .8321. Collecting into one sum all the contributions to the Schemes of the Church in 1887, it is found that they amounted to $226,490 ; in 1888 they amoimted to 8273,154 ; giving an increase for the latter of 84(5,004, evi(]ently proving that God is quickening the interest of His people in the work in which she is engaged l)oth at home and abroad. In 1887 the Foreign Mission Fund received 823,908 from the Woman's Foreign Missionary Sopiety ; the income from the same source in 1888 was 827,308. In 1887 Sabbath schools and Bible classes contributed to the Schemes of the Cliurch $21,4.50, in 1888 they contributed 854,097. The payments to Synod and Presbytery Funds for the one year were 87,062, and for the other S'<,003. All other payments for Benevolent and Religious Purposes amounted to §95,927, which shows a decrease of 83,728, the exact figures being .891,!)99. For all i)nrp()ses the payuients in 1887 aggregated 81,730,252, and in 1888 81,942,723, or an increase of 8-12,471. "The Lord has done great things for u-i. " Let us thank and praise His name and trust that He will do even greater things in answer to our importunate prayers. Your Committee now present, as they have done iti former years, a table which they hav prepared showing the average contribution per family and communicant in each of the 42 Presby- teries of the Church for the purposes specified. ! ■ . w Vlll.

The amount expended on Church or Manse was 812,108, and on other objects connected with the stations 82.815, making a total of 810,784. Without entering upon details, the sum raised for the Schemes of the Church was .81,045. for Synod and Presbytery Funds -890 were paid, and for other benevolent and religious purposes 8222, making a total of .842.471 for ma. purposes. It must be conceded that this is far from being a comidete representation of what is being done through the wide range of her mission oi)eration8 at home for the maintenance and advancement of the Kingdom which Christ has set up among men, which he rules and governs, .-vnd from which such glory is to redound to Hie name. Your committee close their report by recommending : — 1. Thiit. encouraged by the degree of success which has attended efforts for the reduction of drrears of stipend to ministers in different Presbyteries of the Church, the (Jeneral Assembly renew its injunction that continued efforts be made in the same direction till those which exist be discharged ; and that they urge congregations to pay their pastors punctually and regularly. 2. That the General Assembly renew its mjunctiou to Presbyteries to see that all congregations in their Ijounds close their year with the calendar year, both with respect to the Schemes of the Church and their own Statistical and Financial affairs. 3. That Presbyteries be enjoined to instruct all vtvcant congregations through their sessions.

Samuel Porter died at Barrie on the 30th December, 1888, in his 78th year. He was a native of Armagh, Ireland, and was educated at Belfast. He came to Canada in 1830, and five years afterwards was licensed a preacher in connection with the United Synod of Upper Cana(ia, and laboured succes-ively at Trafalgar and at Clarke. He was a most laborious labourer, but in 1861 was obliged by the state of his health to retire from active work. During his later years he resided at Barrie, where he peacefully died, surrounded by an attached family. He was a man of deep piety and was highly esteemed by all who knew him. Rev. Joseph Builder, B.A. This young missionary was a native of Brantford, and, after finishing his course at Toronto University and Knox College, offered himself as a missionary to India, was accepted, and was set apart for missionary work in December, 1883. He was stationed at Mhow, where he laboured with zeal and success. After a few years' labours his heal'h began to fail, and after struggling against disease for some time he was obliged to return to Canada. In accordance with medical advice, he set out for North Carolina, but this last expedient failed, and he died at .Asheville, N. C.,on the 14th November, 1S88, leaving a widow and two young children. Hi.' short labours were not in vain, and now he rests from his work. Rev. John Gibson, another young missionary, died after a short illness at Demerara, on the 26th November. He was a native of Markham, and was educated at Toronto University and Knox College. His course all through was a distinguished one. He accepted an appointment to l)emer- ara, and after spending about a year in Trinidad with the missionaries there, he proceeded :o his own field. He was prosecuting his work with great energy and success, when his sudden death put an end to his labour's. HiH death was a heavy blow to the mission. All classes deeply regretted his untimely death. Mr. Gibson left a widow, and a babe was born a few days after the father's death. Rev. Duncan McMillan died at London on 25th January, 1889, aged 84. Mr. McMillan originally belonged to the United Synod of Upper Canada, and laboured for many years in Caledon and Erin. Afterwards he laboured in Lobo, and spent the evening of his life in London. Mr. f II. Appendix No. 34. McMillan was a man of deep piety and great devotedness, meek and gentle in character, but stead- fast in piinciple, simple and self-denying, willing to spend and be spent for Christ. Canada has had few more devoted and faithful ministera. Rev. James A. Johnson, B.D., a young minister, died at Demerara on i8ih November, 1888. He was a native of Nova Scotia, and a graduate of the Presbyterian Colle^^e, Halifax. He had gone to take charge of the congregation of Rev Mr. Ross, of Demerara, where he laboured with success till he was laid aside by an attack of yellow fever. After about a w?ek's illness he peacefully passed to his rest. He had intended to enter on mission work among the Coc'ies. His death was deeply lamented by a large circle of friends. Rev. A. W. McConechy died at London, Ont., 23ru January, 1889, in his 36th year. He was the son of the late Rev. James McConechy, of Leeds, Que. He was settled for a short time at Port Stanley, but fuMinp health compelled him to give up work. He was highly esteemed by his fellow students and other friends, and his early death was deep'.y regretted.

George Paxton Young, LL.D., was for many 7ears a minister of the Presbyterian Church, although for some years he had not been directly connected with the ministry. He occupied at different times important positions in connection with Knox College and with the Education Department of Canada, and for a number of years had been Professor of Methaphysics and Ethics in Toronto University. He was a man cf very high attaiiiineiits as a scholar, not only in his own department, but iu otheis, and was justly regarded as one of the most brilliant and successful teachers in Canada. He died after a very brief illness, on the 26th February, 1889, universally lamented as a truly great and good man. Rev. Abraham Mcintosh died at his residence, St. Ann's, Victoria County, N. S., on loth March, 1889. His charge was large and his labours were abundant. He was a powerful preacher, esptcially in Gaelic. He toiled faithfully as long as health permitted, and much spiritual fruit resulted from his labours. He will be long greatly missed in the Presbytery of Sydney, of which he was a member. Rev. A. O. Brown, minister at Campbellton, N. B., died on the 27th April, 1889, at Montreal. He came from Scotland in 1885. For a time he laboured at Bass River, N.B., and in 1886 was settled at Campbellton. His ministry, although brief, was acceptable and useful, and his death called forth deep regret, not only in his own congregation, but throughout the whole Presbytery of Miramichi. Rev. Simon C. Eraser, M.A., died at Brandon, Man., in June, 1889. He came from Scotland to the Maritime Provinces at an early period, and was for some time engaged in leaching. He returned to Scotland, and finished his education at King's College, Aberdeen. For some years he was editor of the Inverness Courier, in which paper, while Mr. Eraser was in charge 0/ it, some of the late Hugh Miller's writings first appeared. Mr. Fraser returned to Canada and laboured as a missionary and minister in various localities ; at Port Neuf, Leeds and Inverness, White Lake, and latterly at Thorold, in the Pres'oytcry of Hamilton. Having resigned his charge and retired from the active duties of the ministry, he spent his later years at Brandon, where some of his family had settled. He was a very estimable man, an excellent pastor and preacher, and was regarded as an authority on Church law at meetings of Presbytery and other Church courts. ovember, fax.

APPENDIX No. 31 REPORT ON EVANGELISTS. by his VIC Lva: or ist According to the terms of their appointment, your Committee had only to deal with the practi- cal matter of lookinj; out and recommending to this Assembly such persons as might be fnuufl to have the confidence of the Church, and who, in the judgment of their brethren, were regarded as possessing the requisite qualifications for the successful management of special, or revival, oi, as they are sometimes called, evangelistic services. The Committee accordingly sent out a circular containing the following questions, namely ; I. Can you name one or more persons whom you believe to possess the requisite gilts, and whom you know to have the confidence of the Church in your neighbourhood ? H. What do you regard as a suitable maintenance ? in. Should the support of the evangelist be left to the congregations receiving his should all collections made for this purpose be thrown into a fund out of which t^^c should bt paid t fixed salary f These circi lars were somewhat evenly distributed throughout the Church, two ^ : i: n, u. irg sent to persons in each Presbytery. In every case those to whom they were sent w Tii. *ers in the active work of the pastorate, and elders whose names have appeared in the mil ' of tha Assembly. Only t:venty-four replies were received. Thirteen out of the twenty-four say -ey know of no one whom they could name '"= suitable agents in this work. Three persons recei: j four votes each. Nine others receive ortc vote each. Several of those making the nominations say the persons named are the only ones known to them, while others express the opinion that many might be found if the Presbytery or Synod earn- €stly sought for them. The replies to the second question indicate great diversity of opinion regarding a suitable maintenance. One things five hundred dollars ($500), with board and travelling expenses, would be sufficient for an unmarried man, but mentions no specific sum for a man of family. Another thinks $750 would be a fair salary ; five say $1,000 ; five say $1,200 ; one says $1,500 ; three say $2,000 ; one says $2,500. This correspondent says this should be exclusive of board and travelling expenses. The other sums mentioned are to cover everything. Two think that the evangelist should receive for his services at same rate as paid to the pastor of the charge within which for the time being he is Sbouring. As to how the salary should be raised and paid, three of our correspondents think the support of the evangelist should be left to the congregations receiving his services. The creation of a common fund in each Synod would save the evangelist from the temptation to accept invitations chieflv to the more lucrative fields, and at the same lime provide such service in portions of ihe country where it is greatly needed, but which might not of themselves be able unaided to bear the expense. Thirteen sirongly recommend that the salary be paid from a common fund. On this subject the Committee feel that they cannot do better than quote the judicious words of the Rev. D. M, Gordon, of Halifax : 2. " Suitable maintenance '' depends partly on the question of payment of the Evangelist's expenses while resident in any place. In view, however, of the fact that his prominent and successful work in this ciUing would not ''kely continue as long as that of some pastors, and also of the fact that no congregation would feel under special obligation to make provision for him in sickness or other infirmity, I think that $2,000 should be secured to him as salary, and would rather advocate a larger figure, if practicable. 3. He would i)e the servant of the Church at large. Along other lines of ministerial support we recognise the principle that the strong should help the weak. The Evai gelisi's work would often be in fields pecuniarily feeble. His support while laboring in such fields should not be dependent merely on tlieir contributions, all the more so as such contributions might reduce the amounts given for regular supply of ordinances. On the other hand, it might he reasonably expected that, when be is working in wealthier districts, considerably more than a prora'a amount of his salary would be contributed, especially through the gratitude of those blessed by his labours. It would therefore seem to be a wiser provision to put all the collections for his supp.jrt into a common fund ami from this let him receive a fixed salary. ic^i JJIl] I (i.) Further, as liis work woald n( course he under direction of I'reshyicry, the I'rtshyiery shmdd see to it that for his servicts within thcl- '-ounds he shall receive accord iiii,' to the rate of salary tixtd hy the Assembly, The l'rtsl)ytuiy wo I, .t this case, he custodian ol the collections.

W. suggests the former), and in any case of dehcit, which, however, should hardly occur if the I'reshytery manajje the arrangements [irudently, the amount lacking might be supplied from the same Fund. It is the o|iinion if he Committee that the selection of suitable agmts for evangelistic _worl', if such be considered desirable, the direction of their labours, anfl the nianageiuent of •the funds for their support, be placed in the hands of the Synods, with instructions to co-operate with the I'resbytciies uni'cr such regulations as the experience of the Synods might suggest. All which is respectfully submitted. WNi, MOORE, Convener. Toronto, /iinc //, i88q. APPENDIX No. .10. CAXADIAN PRESBVTEUIAN HISTORICAL SOCIETY. Work hfis l^cen begun in a (juict and unostentatious manner, on the conviction that tlie task of cultivating historical research is likely to prove more successful by the work of the few having decided tastes and possessed of patient industry, rather than by the general interest of the many who are willing to receive the results which are thus achieved. The Sections hiivc not in all cases been organized, but reports have been received from the chairmen of all the sections. The Assend)ly at its last meeting empowered the Society to obtain an Act of Incorporation from the Dominion Parliament, but it has been deemed bettor to have all the sections organized before taking this important step. IIAUFAX. The President of the Society, Rev, Dr. Burns of iralifax, reports on behalf of the Chairman of the Halifax Section. It is stated that the year 1888, embracing three centennial celebrations, contributed not a little in the line of the Society's objects. Dr. McCulloch's .Jubilee, too, in Feb- ruary of this year, was in the same direction, and several valuable papers were eontributeil which had been prepared by various brethren. During the past winter several articles of vit.luc and interest as to the history of our Church in Prince Edward Island have appeared in the '* If/and (inardimi." It is in contemplation also to publish a number of papers in connection with the operations of tilt! (ilasgow Colonial Society in the Maritime Provinces, certain valuable docu- ments being in the hands of the President. It ia reported that there is a commodious vault in the College at Pinehill, so that manuscripts and other historical material committed to the care of the Society, can be preserved in safety. Arrangements have been made for a full organi- zation of the Halifax Section at the next meeting of the Synod of the Maritime Provinces in September, at Pictou. QITEBEC SECTION. Dr. J. W. Harper, Chairman of the Quebec Section, reports that while the Presbyterian population of Quebec ia much reduced, yet there are those who are of opinion that the movement is one worthy of every one's hearty support — every Presbyterian in whom the literary spirit has been developed. The Chairman recommends a more flexible constitution than that suggested by the Asseml)ly of allowing separate action, where it ia not convenient for the College authorities to co-operate, and thiit papers read be placed at once in the custody of the Secretary of the Society. In regard to this the Executive Committee is of opinion that the present constitution in this respect should be adhered to for at least another year. The Society is glad to hear the Chairman say," I have been ploughing the ground for you by collecting notes from some of the old people, which will be of interest when they are woven into a paper." MONTREAL SECTION. The three officers of the Society in Montreal have had conference, and express much hope or the future of the Society there.

Dr. (ire;:g makes this suggestion, that it seems to him very (lesiral)le " that separate por- tions of the History of the Presbyterian Church in Canada, oi' of the ditl'erent branches of which the (iencu'al Assembly is composed, should be written by persons specially conversant with thes separate poitions or brunches." The existence of such valual)le material in Toronto should encourage tlie prosecution of mui;h original I'cseareh. 'J'wo years from now the Cer tuiial of th'; organization of Upper (.'anada will have leached ii.s. If not soon gathered mucii of the history of the earlier pioneers will have gone forever. It is hoped that during this year full organization of the Section will take place, and that many nuiy be enlisted in *'•_ nork. WlNMI'Kli SKCTION. During tlie year the Winnipeg Section was regularly organized, and a roll of 2ti mendiers obtained. Steps were immediately taken to obtain, as soon as possible, a vault in the Libiary of .Manitoba ("oUege.
