For the niost part, however, he ia obliged to vi.sit his churches by boat. From tliiKcircumHtanco his visits must be irreguhir, owing to his dependence, on the wind and weather. Two of these Ishmdjs — iJryonand F^ntry — are altogether disconnected from the othci*8, and consequently are visited by water only. The chui'ches are built on the connected islands— one is at Andiurst, one at Gi-indstone and the third at Grosso lule. Ry land they are about 30 miles apart. Two of those churches — the one at Cli'indstone and the one at Amhurst — were built through the genei-osity of Admiral Coifin, the proprietor of the Islands. They are com])k'tcd, aiul arc certairdy beautiful little churches. The liev. John Walters npcnt no pains to accoiii))lish what good taste and architecture could etfecl. Garpcting and tnatting are provided. A splendid set of (jommunion vessels were also given by tho Admiral, The two Churches are two gems amid a surrounding desolation. Till' (jhurch at (Jrosse Isle, as far as it is built, w;ih erected by the inhabitants themselves. A groat deal yet remains to bo (hjiio towards its cotnpletion, but service can be held in it during tho warm summer months. Wo hope that, by the graei; or(iod, some kind friends will bo raised up to jusnist in providing it with what is yet m-eessary. The Parsonage is built on (Jrindstono Island, the most ccnti'al [lai't ot'ihe Mi^^sion. it was erected at the expense of Admii'al Collin, and by him comfortably furnished. Thero is also a glebe of lOO acres of land attached to tho Parsonage. Of this about lo ai res ;ii'c cleai-ed and fit for cultivation. Altogether tlic^ |)eop|e lia\e every reason to be thankful to Adndi'al Cotliu for his muniticence. Tho Pi'otestants on their part arc beginning to value Iho Bacriiices made for them li()tli by Admiral Coffin and tho Chiu'ch S(K'ioty. They are always ready to give their time and labour to the benetit of the Chnrcli* Money, also, they will gladly give when procurable. Hut ihey are poor. Pro- visions are vei-v dear and their tish is very cheap. They 2'A jfiavo I.'ii'^c'iiunilics lo olotlic and Iced aii(i srriiill niounH with which to provide I'or tJK'Mi. Still they have boyun to contri- bute to tiie J)ioc'esnri IJoard towardn the payment of their ('lei'i>;vtnairs sahiiy. They liave also iniderlaken to huild, this wiiiler, a ((oat lor the Mission. Up to the present they have thetnselveH in ttiin willingly Mipjtlie»l tiie n\eaim to 'Convey tne hy water i'roni one island to another. Thinking;, ho\V(^ver, tliat it would be more to the (.'lerifynian's eonvc- jfuenee to have a boat at his disposal I'or an}- oeeasion, they have offered to liuildone. it must be remembered that u boat in this Mission is as indis})enisable as a horse to an inland Missionary. Theie is, therefore, every evidence that the services of our Ohureh are valued by the itdiabitants of these Islands. Though some of them are j)rofessedly l*i-esbyterians and Baptists, yet when called upon they all will give a helping liand. A whole Baptist family was, last summer, baptized into the Ciiurch. Amherst. — In this Island we liave only five families. The church was built more espeiially for tho fishermen who fi'C([uent these shores during ihe fishing season. »Servicc, however, is held in the Church in tlie winter as well as in the 8ummer. The morning and afternoon j)raycr8 arc well attended, and the children seem to enjoy the Sunday-school. There have been four baptisms since my arrival. (Jrindstone. — As tiie Missionary resides on this Island the HOrvices are more fiV(]|U(Mit in this church than in the others. There arc about six we(dring, whcTi it is almost iinpwssilibi to travel to the other islands, [ri the fall it is jumost alwjiys blowing a gale of wind, and in the sjiring the ire — never \Qvy safe, (iven in the mi'lst, of the wintin- — will neither support a horse or allow the passage of a boat. The people of this island have, therefoi-e, thcii- two services and their Sunday-scliool on about half thi' Sundays in the year. Here the families numl)er 10; in most cases laigo, including many chiidron. From this cii-cumsiance we have endeavored to establish a Hchool. A grant, of $'^\) ]ni" annum to tho feaclier fi'om tlu^ ('()lonial and Coiif incntal (luiic'i Society was pr»)cnred for MS by tlu' kindness of f lie Bishop. His Lordship procured, besides, a grant of $10 towards the en^cfioti of a school-house. With this assistance and the kind interest taken in us by Dr. Miles, we ar(! enabled to open a school. A teacher has just come, and wo hope, by the blessing of (Jod, much good will result from liis tcacliing. In this island six have been baptized, two married, one buried.

The retrosjK'ct of the (dosin,i>- year as i-cii-arils atfairs of the mission is decidedly encoura,i;ini;-. We Jiave made such pro- gress, that, humbly speakinu". was liardly to have been expected. When 1 entered u|)on the work of the place in January (liere was considerable discussion as to the site of a parsona,«;-e and church, and foi' a time there seemed little prospect of eitiier. l)Ul now we liave to tiiaidc Ciod that the situation of the parsonage was determined by vote ol" the Vestry, and that the house is furnished completely. We have to acknowled<;-c, as we do ^•ladlv. the munificenL help of Chas. King. !>([., of Lyster, aiid Ids sons. The Mission is greatly indebted to "Air. Chas. King for his indefatigable exertions. Nor must 1 omit to express our gratitude to certain members of the Hamilton family for generous assistance. The church members in the neighbour- hood, too. have given and done what they could, which, in some instances, was very great, in in-oporlfon to their means. With respect to the pro])osed Church, I Jiope in my next report to show progi-ess in that direction likewi.se. The Diocesan Boai-d ol' .Missions has assessed the mission at two liundred dollars for the )iext two years, being arise of eighty dollars. This sum is considered by those wlio know the capabilities of the mission excessive. "^I^ut 1 do not think it is; indeed, if the practice of calling upon the people to do their best to supi)ort the ministrations of the Church had been. 40 adopiod ciU'liei- wo .should luivc bocii paying- coll^^idor^ll»ly more jit tlii.s period, it in too coiinuon ibr eortain williiigrnciiibors of I lie clmrcli lo l)e allowed to pay the assessment, which should he home hy all.

J\[oreover. in eonsccpieneo oi u tour of the pai'ish, in eompany with the Wardens, I am able to say that, with ])i'oper mananement, the people will not bo Ix'hindhand in testilyin^- to their loyalty to the church of" theii" fathers in a moj'<' sulislanlial luanni'i- even than at 1 (resent.

It must not be supposed that' there are no dillieulties to coiiteiid^ against in tins mission. L have met with no active opposition, but there is a degree oi' inditlerenco to religion, on the ])arL ol'a few in this village, and many in the surround- ing neighbourhood, that is hardly ci-ediblc. Nothing is imj»()ssible with (iod. .lie can at any lime bring light out of darkness, but. hunnmly speaking, there is more hope of the conversion of savnge heal hen, than of men who, knowing nothing, caring for nothing in the way of religion, are never- theless supremely contented with themselves, with their prospects here and in iAio world beyond.

I am glad to notice the continued kitidness of my people, and to acknowledge gratefully an J^^aster (Jift from Cape Cove of $44, and one i"rom Perce of S16. I gladly mention also the gift of a valuable gold watch from the congregation of Capo Cove, presented to me in Se])tember, with a most affec- tionate but too flattering address, by Messrs. Savage, Balleine, Komeril, Pamon, Baker and Lenfestoy, in the name of a large number of the congregation. I think, and I say it with gra- titude to Jlim without whose blessing all our ctlbrts arc powerless, that the prospects of the I\Iission ai*e more encour- aging than they have ever been. There is neither division nor dissent amongst us ; The children are all being trained up in the princijdes of our Church, and learn from an early age to take an interest in lier services. Jn our sejiools, Sun- day and daily, Holy Sci'ipturc and tiic Church Catechism are regularly taught, and the j'esult of this training vu\ already be seen in our oi'dcrly e(jngregations in which the young peo])le and the children form a largo proportion. William Core Lyster. valcartier. I took charge of this mission on tlic loth day of February last past, and was formally and solemnly inducted by the Bishop on the second Sunday of Lent following, in presence of a largo and seemingly devout congregation, which service impressed me, at the time, as an augury of coming peace and mutual fellowship in carrying on the work of the eluirch. I am thankful to add that my hope, so auspiciously begun not since failed to be realized. Jioth in attendance a Parish Church, and in the devout worshij) of the congregation, a warm interest lias been maintained since that day. Hitherto we have had, regularly, morning service at the Parish Church, and a monthly celebration of the Jloly Com- munion. The latter is not so numerously attended as the congregation should warrant. I have had an afternoon service monthly and consecutively at three outposts in this Parish, also at the little (now decay- ing) church in the adjoining Parish of St. (Catherine. As this litile church is, by road, about twelve miles distant from the las at the * t ' 51 church of Valcarticr, I must iiitcrclitingc. oecjisionally, the morning and at'Lornoon Horvicos hcroaf'ter, as they seldom, if ever, come from St. Catherine's to the church ol* Vak-urtier, at which they congregate from the otlier out-posts. I regret to say that, from a want ot Lay assistance, I liave not been able to carry out my plan ol" Sunday-schools, so much needed, and 1 am yet unable to devise a scheme to meet this want, as the day nchools afford no privilege, and the distant and scattered localities of the children render it diffi- cult otherwise to reach them. Something must bo done to overreach this difficulty. The following is a financial statement of the Parish of Valcartier since it came into my hands, in February last : Diocesan Board assessment $ 140 00 Synod assessment , 2 00 Church Society, General Fund ;} 3G Thanksgiving Day, W. & O.

The services at the two Churches in mv Mission have been regulai'ly held during the past year. St. Paul's Church.— The congregation was augmented during the summer months, owing to an influx of visitors to Craspe Hasin. During the remainder of the year the atten- dance at St. Paul's has been about the average. The ordinary congregation is composed of seventeen families and a few of the sailors belonging to the vessels employed in the fish and lumber trade of the Port of Gaspe. The small number of Pew-holders, together with the fiict that the lai-ger portion of the assessment is derived from a very few members of the Vestry, influenced the Church- wardens and (Mergyman in their opinion as to the union of the Missions of Sandy Beach and Gaspo Basin, which was advised by the Diocesan Board. One strong self-sup]X)rting Mission with three Churches within a short distance of each other was felt to be preferable to two Missions struggling for an existence. Ihit the congregation accept with pleasure the arrange- ment which for the coming year gives them their usual services. ! 11 i ! 52 1 am li;i|»]»y to \)c ahle to .state (hat the 8mi(lay-.sehool at Ibc Ha>iii luis heeji iv-(»ri;-aiiized.
