 Who was bom in Strabanc, in the North of Ireland, in 1798, and

 He was converted in ejirly . ife, and connecting himself with th« 
 Primitive Wesleyan Society in Ireland, he was called into the 
 ministry of that Society in his native land. He emigrated to 
 Canada in 1842, joined the Wesleyan Church in Canada East, and 
 subsequently removed to Canada West, where he laboured as a 
 diligent and nuccessful minister of Jesus Christ. 
 
 Domestic trials led him to seek a superannuated relation to the 
 Conference, in 1864, at which time he took up his reaidenoe is 
 Welliiif?ton Square. 
 
 Br( uer Graham's religious life was one of joyona trust in Ood.

 COMMITTEE'S REPORT. 
 
 Tlie children to bo provided for the present Conference yesii 
 ftiuount to 817, and although 20 have gone off the Fund by a/jp, an<l 
 11 have been lemoved by death, the uuuvlwr ci births makea a'l 
 increase of 29 claimants over the fonner year. It is gratifying to 
 know that the increase in raem1)er8hip for the pe-^t year, (t« (.'ircnits 
 paying into this Fund, is nearly eijfficient to meet the rldims of 
 these avlAitional children. It will however be seen by the Trea- 
 surer's Rejwrt that the balance on haiui, amounting to #65.9 'V7, has 
 been consumed in liquidating the claims of the past year, making it 
 necessary, unless the tax per member is increased, to reduce the 
 amount of claim for each child the present year ; therefore — 
 
 ReaohH'd,- That the rate per membcar for this year be .'}5 cents, and 
 that $24 50 be the amount payable by the Fund for each child, 
 
 Re^olved,-~ThAt the Rbv. J. 0. Slater be continued as Oenerfti

 Reporl of Committee appointed at the Hamiiton Confereru:e 
 to consider the recomrnendatimi, of the Children s Fund 
 Ootnmittee in regard to the claims of the Children of 
 Superannuated, Ministers. 
 
 The Committee composed of Revs. Dr. Wood, K Jones, J. Douse, 
 8, Rose, and J. C. Slater, met in Toronto, oa the 4th September, 
 1867. 
 
 The ('ommittee have crefully considered the question submitted 
 to their judgment, that is to say, the propriety of contimiing the 
 payment of the claims '>£ Superannuated Ministers Children out of 
 the Children'a Fund — which practice is alleged by the Children's 
 Fund Committee to Ive a dcsparture from the origiT,\al intention of 
 the Fund., and therefore irregular and unconstitutional. 
 
 Having ascertained that the resolution of the Kingston Con- 
 vention, Avhich originated the F'und, and which was adopted by 
 the Quarterly Official Boanls, requires " that a fimd l>e establifihed 
 for equalizing the support of Preachers' children upan the prinaple 
 adopted by the Eiiglish Cor^''erence :" and that the Dractice of that 
 body has always been to provide for the children of :;ip€.'ana\jated 
 Ministers out of their Children's Fund ; and further, that the 
 practice has been sanctioned by the declaratory resolution of the 
 Conference, to be found in the Minutes of 1858, and set forth in 
 the Di8cij)line of 1859, and has been the usage of the Connexiou for 
 many years past, tha Committ«e are of the opinion that the claims 
 of the children of Superannuated Preachers are a regular and legit i 
 mate charge upon the Childi'en's Fund, -iud recommend that they 
 be paid as usual. 
 
 All -which is respectfully submitted.

 OF THE 
 
 SUNDAY SCHOOL COMMITTEE FOR 1868. 
 
 Your Committee are happy in being able to come before 
 the Conference with tidings of cheer from our Sunday 
 Schools in every part of our extended work. 
 
 The statistical refcui-ns are fuller than in former years, 
 and show most gratifying progress in almost every par- 
 ticular. The schedules report an increase of 89 schools ; 
 bu^ it is believed the net gain does not exceed 60, and 
 that the remaining 39 should have appeared in the returns 
 of last year. The increase in the staff of Teachers is 698, 
 and of Scholars 3,126. There is also an i crease of 705 
 Scholars meeting in class. The amount raised for Mi;^- 
 sionary and Sunday School purposes is $17,358 05, an

 increase of about $2,500 over the previous year. There is 
 only one particular in which a decrease is observable, 
 namely, in the number of Teac^hers who are not members 
 of our Church. 
 
 Your Committee observe with pleasure that the B<5ok- 
 Steward, acting on the recommendation of the last Con- 
 ference, has commenced the publication of a monthly paper 
 for Sunday School Tejujher-s. Tliey are convince<l that it 
 is well caieuiated to supply a long-folt want, and that Iwth 
 as regards the character of the publication itself, and the 
 wants of our Sunday School work, it is entitled to the con- 
 fidence and support of the Ministers ^nd Teachers through- 
 out the entire Connexion. Your Coiimjitt*;e trupt, there- 
 fore, that ** The Sunday School Banner" will obtain such 
 a circulation as will insure itt janent publication. 
 
 Your Committee regret thai there has not been a largei 
 increase i' the circulation of the Sunday School Advocatf, 
 and they ue convinced that tlie chief hindrance is its price, 
 which, es])ecially on the jx)orer Circuits and Missions, pre- 
 vents it from competing with cheaper publicfl lions of the 
 same class. From several District* representa ions of this 
 kind have been received, and many Minit-ters have declared 
 their inability to extend the circulation of the Advocate 
 while cheaper publications are in the held. Yoiu Com- 
 mittee would thei'cfoi'e most earnestly recommend that the 
 Sunday SciiOOL Advocate be is.sued in future at the uni- 
 form rate of twenty-iive cents per copy, whore not less than 
 ten copies ai-e taken. 
 
 From fo number of Districts resolutions and suggestions 
 \mvB been ret^ived, strongly rtHX^mmending the appoint- 
 ment of a General Sunday School Agent, While f\Uly

 recoguizing the injportance of such an agency, your Conir 
 njittee cannot conceal the fact that, an yet, we have no 
 connexional Sunday School organization which an agent 
 might represent, nor any available fund from which he 
 could be paid • nevertheless they are strongly of the opinioji 
 that by organizing a Connexional Sunday School Union, 
 and by bringing the matter prominently before our people 
 during the present year, the nucleus of a fund, at least, 
 might be formed, which would justify the Conference, at its 
 next session, in sending an agent into the field 
 
 Your Committee are glad to know that during the past 
 year several District Sunday School Conventions have been 
 held with encouraging results. They would therefoi'e re- 
 commend the holding of similar Conventions ou eveiy 
 District, where practicable, during the coming year. 
 
 The limits of this Report forbid your CommJtt<>e en- 
 larging upon other topics of interest which have beei. before 
 them ; but in view of the facts already presented,-— rin view 
 of promoting the purity of our Sunday School Literature, — 
 in view of the fact that our future as a Church will in no 
 small degree depend upon the religious training of the 
 youth of our congregations, they respectfully submit that 
 the time has come when our Sunday Schools should be 
 organized on the connexional principle, as a distinct depart- 
 ment; of our work, under the control of the Conference, and 
 receiving that careful consideration from year to year which 
 80 important a matter denjAuds. Your Committee trust, 
 therefore, that the Constitution of the Wesleyan Suntiay 
 School Union, which has been revised by order of the last 
 Conference, and which, in its amended form, will be prer 
 *soted in connection with this Keport, will not pnlj receive

 '/lie ? ffiBiirers in presenting tlieir Annual Report to the 
 fi, ' uul through it to Uie Couferonce, while 
 
 deeply ngiutting some things, would nevuvthuli'ss) record 
 their devout gratitude to the Giver of all g(H)d for the 
 measure of BucceKs granted to the institution tlujing the 
 past year. The number of students in all the depuitniunly, 
 including the Grammar School, is considerably in excess 
 of any ])revious year, being 417. The arrangements made 
 at the beginning of the year with the Trustees of the Co- 
 bourg Grammar S»Aool, to affiliate that School witli the 
 College, have fully met the expectations of parties con.

 prevent th" continuance of the affiliatien, we may rea8onaV)ly 
 expect results in the future still more encoumging. Tlie 
 carrying out of theae armngenieuts has been the means of 
 resuscitating the Gmmmar School, and thus giving a larger 
 number of young men an opjwrtunity of preparing for 
 matriculation in the University, who, probabl), would not 
 have done so had it not been for tliese arrangements. They 
 have, as was expected, inci"eased tlie number in attendance, 
 and i'^ssened the expenses. In these particulars we regaui 
 the afiiiation as a complete success. From tuition fees in 
 the Faculty of Arts we hav' received very little assiataiioe, 
 aa all who enter the University in that Faculty do so upon 
 pai(' uj) scholarships. We alao regret th»t so small an 
 amount has l>een obtained from subscriptions and notes 
 which were reported last year as being due. Every one 
 in arrears has been wi'itten to during the year, and pay- 
 ment earnestly urged in every way likely to insure success ; 
 also, the ^'ood offices of the Chairmen of Districts have been 
 solicited iu accordance with a resolution of the (Conference 
 Special Committee, passed last November ; and yet the 
 returns, as you may see from the })alance sheet, are ffu' from 
 being satisfactory. HowevfT, the amoimt collected, small 
 as it is, has assisted us in some mea-sui-e to carry out the 
 recommendation which we made in our report last year, and 
 which was accepted by the annual meeting, viz., to use the 
 balance of the subscriptions when collected to ('efiuy work- 
 ing expenses, and thus render it unnecessary to run an 
 account at the bank on the strength of obtaining the 
 accustomed Parliamentary Grant. By acting upon this 
 recommeixlation — as may be seen by the balance sheet — our 
 bank liabilities are only 8553 55, compared with $4,384 
 last year. And should the annual grant be continued, or

 fund at it8 <liF<])08al, and the balance still due on BubHcrij)- 
 tions be collected and used aH recommende<l — towurdH pay- 
 ing w^orking expenses — then thein^ itution will be put into a 
 position, with respect to its finauct^s, far more favorable tlian 
 it has o iipied for several years. The Twjimirers will then 
 have the grant to begin tlie year ojxirationH with, instead 
 of it« l>eing used up before the work of the year is entered 
 ujwn ; but if this balance shoiild not be paid, aud the 
 Governnient be allowed to carry out the policy resj "cting 
 Denominational Colleges of which they have given uotice, 
 then very serious embarrassment will be the iiirxitable 
 result : to prevent which, the friends of the University 
 and of the Wesleyan Methodist Church will have to unite 
 in some plan to raise, at least for a time, until tl.e question 
 is settled, a sufficient amount to make up for even the 
 tem^»orary loss of the assistance which we have been re-

 prepared a full and, we trust, correct report of all ])aid up 
 subscriptions and donations given at different periods for 
 the relief of the University, with a brief account of the 
 origin and progress of the attempts made at diiFerent ti mes 
 to put the institution in circumstances which would relieve 
 those to whom the management of its affaii-s have been 
 committed from painful anxiety respecting its efficiency and 
 continued duccess. From the rep( rt here referred to, it may

 adherents have given us no assistance to wipe out the ^.ate 
 heavy debt. There is from some Circuits not a name ex- 
 cept that of the Superintendent ; others having a member- 
 ship of sevenil hundreds, with numerous adherents, are 
 represented by some half dozen names. ,j^,,; .^4: • .^'-k -v* 
 
 Notwithstanding this, the princely subscriptions of a few 
 noble friends, with the paid up siibscriptions of 230 of the 
 Ministers of the Connexion, added to the smaller olferings 
 of those who responded to the call made upon them to pay 
 as well as to subscribe, have been sufficient to free our noble 
 University from a heavy debt, on which an embarrassing 
 amount of interest had to be paid, '^ > ^*?: ;*-!s t* ;nr ;;' i- 
 
 With respect to tho future we would have no fearji, 
 w'3re it not for the threatened change in the educational 
 policy of the Government. Should that change take place, 
 and our people not come to the rescue with an endow- 
 ment of at least $100,000, or an equivalent for the 
 present Government grant, or an annual subscription or 
 collection sufficient to meet annual expenses, we must shut 
 up the Insticution, however reluctant we may be to do so, 
 and abandon an enterprise so auspiciously commenced by 
 our fathers some thii-ty-six years ago. It is an encouraging 
 fact that the interest taken by our people in higher educa- 
 tion, for the youth of this Dominion, is increasing every 
 year ; but it is doubtful v bother it is yet sufficiently 
 intensified to make them willing to forego their just claim 
 u})on the Legislature and Goa emment of the Province for 
 assistance, and depend entirely upon private rest)urce8 for a 
 sufficient amoimt to pay an efficient staff of Professors, and 
 furnish the facilities necessar,.' to give the much desired 
 University education. ^

 In closmg this Report, the Treasurers would express a 
 hope that the Board and Conference may adopt such 
 measures as will enlist the sympathy and secure the co- 
 operation 01 all who are interested in the higher and proper 
 education of our youth, and save Victoria College from the 
 disastrous etfects of having her pecuniary resources crippled. 
 Until the result of the contemplated appeal to the country 
 is known, a sufficient sum in some way or other must be 
 provided to keep the income of the College from being less 
 than it is at present, or, as we have before intimated, the 
 work of giving our youth a Univoi'sity education, as far as 
 we are concjerned, muht cease for the present. 
 
 All of -w'hich is most respectfully submitted.

 ■U\'4, '.-'-' O' THE .v: 
 
 vt BRITISH CONFERENCE OF 1867, 
 ADDRESS OF THE W. M CONFERENCE IN CANADA, 1867. 
 
 Reverend and Dear Brethren, — 
 
 It is with feelings of unmingled satisfaction that we 
 receive your Address. We rejoice greatly in the success 
 which continues to attend your manifold labours, and 
 especially in the sure ground of hope that the enlargement 
 of your bcirders, now reported, is the pledge of yet more 
 Abundant increase in years to come. We note with joy, 
 for instance, the hold which I.j^ethodism is taking of the 
 young people of Canada, as eviiiced by the number of Un- 
 dergraduates in Victoria University, and of pupils in the 
 Female College. As a Church, you have done well in 
 making provision for the education and culture of the sons 
 
 ■:*«?-■

 WESLEYAN METHODIST CONFERENCE.

 and daughters of intelligent Methodists. It is worth much 
 to have the moulding of the mind, and the direction of the 
 taste and studies, of our young people ; and the Church 
 which secures this advantage goes far to bespeak for herself 
 a prosperous future. And whilst you are thus providing 
 specifically for the Christian culture of the middle and 
 upper classes in College and University, you establish and 
 multiply Sunday Schools for the religious instruction, on 
 the Lord's day, of the children of the poor. In the statistics 
 ••elating to your Sabbath Schools, there are two things 
 which excite our grateful satisfaction : the number of 
 scholars who meet in class, and the number of volumes in 
 the libraries. We infer from them that the policy of your 
 Sunday Schools is directed by men of broad intelligence and 
 earnest godliness. As a rule, if our senior scholars leave 
 the Sunday School undecided for the Lord Jesus, their 
 conversion in after yeara is most uncertain, and, as a matter 
 of fact, rarely occurs. Too much importance, therefore, can- 
 not be attached to the salvation of our scholars, and their 
 voluntary association with the people of God whilst they are 
 sdiolara ; and your sustained and pmyerful efforts to secure 
 these objects will doubtless be owned, in yet larger measure, 
 by the favour and blessings of Him who is " the Head over 
 all things to the Church." We cherish a strong confidence 
 that in all your educational institutions, you will continue 
 to train up the children and youth of your societies and 
 congregations in the doctrines, privileges, and duties of the 
 Christian religion ; and that, whilst so doing, God, even our 
 own God, will cause you to "joy before Him according to 
 the joy in harvest, and as men rejoice when they divide the 
 spoil."

 We are tlimikful to note fitrther that, both among the 
 new settlements and Indian tribes, your Missionary work has 
 been marked by unabated progress. We look at this fact 
 in the light of your godly care for "^he young people who 
 are growing up in your midst, and we rejoice. It is only 
 as we are at once conservative and aggressive, that the true 
 end of our existence as a Church can be reached. If, on the 
 one hand, we seek to enlarge our borders, but, at the same 
 time, fail to pi'eserve to Methodism her own children, the 
 jx)wer of ejitension is impaired, and a collapse is imminent. 
 If, on the other hf^nd. we care only to kef.^p and cherish 
 those already under our influence, wo close against our- 
 selves a field of labour which calls into exercise the noblesft 
 feeliiigs of the " new man," and furnishes a sphere for the 
 manifestation of the loftiest Christian heroism ; and we 
 forfeit, moreover, the crowning benediction of Him who 
 came *' to seek and to save that which was lost." In our 
 children we '* have a goodly heiitage," which, by all means, 
 and at any cost, we must keep and cultivate. It is amongst 
 Churches which are aggressive in their genius and organiza- 
 tion, that "the light of the moon" may become "as the light 
 of the sun, and the light of the sun sevenfold, as the light 
 of seven days." In both departments of service you have 
 the promise of a God who keepeth covenant. Not only 
 has he said, — " I will pour water on him that is thirsty, 
 and floods upon the dry ground ;" but also, ** I will pour 
 My Spint upon thy seed, and my blessing upon thine off- 
 spring." In your past history and present condition we 
 mark the fulfillment of these promises. A succession of 
 faithful men, offering themselves for the work and office 
 of the Christian ministry, represents the rich and abiding 
 
[1868-

 WESLEYAN METHODIST CONFERENCE. 
 
 Ill 
 
 benediction of the Moat High tipon your Church. Every 
 candidate for ordination is the result of much labour 
 crowned by the blessing of God. To make one true Min- 
 ister requires a combin^ion of circunistencea and influences, 
 — of privileges offered and opportunities embraced. Such a 
 macQ i« the fruit of Divine grace, and of a providence equally 
 Divine, working together to thia end ; and no stronger 
 proof cf the presence and power of Christ in a Chiirch can 
 be desired than the foi*thcoming, from year to year, of young 
 mon who prove themselves " able Ministers of the New 
 Testiunent." We rejoice exceedingly that, in your Church, 
 the hright succession coB»tinues to run on, and we pray that 
 Methodism in Canada may ''not want a man to stand be 
 fore" the Lord ♦' forever." 
 
 During the last year the hand of our God has also been 
 upon us for good. A mighty impulse was given to th» 
 faith and hope of the as'^eiubled Ministers by a conversation 
 on the state of the work of God, which took place on one 
 of the early days of the last Conference. On returning to 
 his Circuit, the cry went up to heaven &om the heart and 
 lips of many a Minister, '* Save now, ' I beseech Thee, O 
 Lord ; I beseech Thee, send now prosperity." Amongst 
 preachers and people there was felt a quickened sense of 
 individual responsibility ; and it was not long before, in 
 several places, " prayer was made without ceasing of the 
 Church unto God," for the immediate outpouring of the 
 Spirit. Special efforts were put forth, not only to reach 
 " them that are without," but also to win for Christ the 
 unconvorted in our Sabbath Schools and congregationa In 
 many of our Circuits a great work of God soon appeared. 
 The ordinary means of grace were made the channels of 
 
mw

 [1868. 
 
 awakening and converting power. In some instances, the 
 influence of the Holy Spirit wa» bo plenteouo and iMJi-vasive, 
 that the routine of Sabbath School instruction merged into 
 a prayer-meeting, and scores of young persons sought and 
 found ademption through the blood of Christ, even the 
 forgiveness of sins. In other Circuits the hand of God 
 was seen in the gathering together of men and women who 
 had not been wont to attend the house of prayer. To these 
 the glorious Gospel has come with the force and freshness 
 of a new revelation of " good tidings of great joy ;" and in 
 the change wrought in the heart and life of such as these, 
 we have recognized an illustration of the words of Christ : 
 *' The kingdom of heaven is like unto treasure hid in a field, 
 the which when a man hath found, he hideth, and for joy 
 thereof goeth and selloth all that he hath, and buyeth that 
 field." 
 
 Our net increase upon the year is 5,887 j but in a Church 
 numbering 337,070 members, probably not fewer than 
 15,000 die yearly. We conclude, therefore, that during the 
 last twelve months more than 20,000 persons have been 
 gathered out of the world, and are now " written among the 
 living in Jerusalem." ♦' Blessed be the Ix)rd God, the God 
 of Israel, who only doeth wondrous things." It is not, how- 
 ever, our purpose to convey the idea that we are content 
 with the progress made during the past year. Whilst we 
 ai"e devoutly thankful, we are very far from being satisfied. 
 Our facilities for usefuln'^as are evw increasing. There are 
 the new congregations assembling in the commodious chapels 
 recently erected, and there are the dense populations to 
 which we have gained access by means of our Home Mission 
 Agency ; not to Attention the 656,602 children and young

 people in our Sabbath Schools. Theee circuaistances, viewed 
 in connection with promises which are «' exceedingly great 
 and precious," warrant \m in looking for an increase far 
 beyond any which it has yet been our privilege to record. 
 It is our desire and hope that, in every Circuit, we and 
 our people may " know the gift of God," and, in his ap- 
 pointed way, "wait for the promise of the Father," until the 
 8pirit be poured upon us from on high, and " the wilderness 
 be a fruitful field, and the fruitful field be counted for a 
 forest." 
 
 We have much pleasure in acceding to your request, in 
 appointing the Eev. W. Morley Punshon, A.M., the Presi- 
 dent of your next Annual Conference, and hope that he 
 nmy be able to arrange previously to visit various places in 
 your Connexion, greatly to the advantage of our common 
 Master's cause. 
 
 We have pleasure in also appointing as Co-Delegate the 
 Rev. Lachlan Taylor, D.D., according to your request. 
 
 We commend you and your work afresh to the blessing 
 of our common Lord.

 We acknowledge with heartfelt thankfulness your

 Wliile its statements afford us grateful satisfivction, its sug-

 Taried labours for the up-building of believei-s, the education 
 and training of youth, and the conversion of sinners, which 
 constitute the vocation and duties of the Church of Christ. 
 
 We rejoioe with you in your enjoyment of perfect peace 
 and great pi'os[)erity as a Church. We will not repeat the 
 statistics of our last year's address ; but w^e are humbly thank - 
 ful to be able to say, that throughout all our societies and con-

 the unity of the Spirit in the bonds of peace ; and in every 
 department of our work — in our Circuits, Missions, Univer-

 numbers, and Connexional Funds, there has been a larger 
 increase than even during the preceding year. In our last

 our drink to be instant in sejison ami out of season, always 
 abouiuliug in the work of the Lord ; looking for the fullness 
 of the blessing in our own souls, and in our congregations. 
 
 Those covenant engiigcsments we have endeavored to keep, 
 though with many short-comings and imi)erfections ; and the 
 Lord of the husbandr) has granted us already, from our seeds 
 of tears and toils, to rt ap in joy a harvest of uni)recedente<l 
 succebs. In no one year have our people erected so many 
 (Tommo<lious places of worship, most of them fi-ee from debt, 
 and none of them with embarrassing debt ; in no one year 
 have all our funds been so liberally sustained ; and fo" many 
 ye«rs there has not Ijeen so large -m increase of members, 
 wlule the disciplinax-y conditions of membership have been 
 faithfully maintained. 
 
 Glory be to the Father, to the Son, and to tlie Holy Ghost, 
 
 that our churches have thus had rest throughout the land, 
 
 and have been edified ; and walking in the fear of the Lord 
 
 and in the comfort of the Holy Ghost, have becu multiplied. 
 
 We thank God and take courage, — aided by 19 newly or-

 with a membership of upwards of sixty thousand. We con-

 To th3 religious instruction of all the childron of our 
 churcii we can not attach too much importance, or bestow 
 too n.uch attention fcnd labour, knowing tliat tine Divine pro' 
 mise appertains to our offspring as abundantly as to our- 
 selves, and that I'pon \is devolves the duty and the i^sjwnsi- 
 bility of applying and perpetuating the blessings of that 
 promise. 
 
 Our Female College at Hamilton is pursuing its noble 
 work with undiminished success in the higher education of 
 the daughters of our people ; and the University of Victoria 
 C!ollege continues t.o multiply the bestowments of corres- 
 ponding benefits upon their sens, rendering, at the same time, 
 service to our rainiatry, by the sujierior education of many of 
 our yov»ng men. We pu»'pose the present year, by the 
 Divine blessing, to make a general effort for the more efli- 
 cient and permanent endowment of Victoria College, and 
 the establishment of a Divinity Chair, in order to secure 
 more systematic and thorough theological training for our 
 future Ministry. 
 
 To promote these important undertakings, as well as for 
 the V>e8t interests of our Church and coiuitry at large, we 
 believe tliat the residence and lalwura of our President, the 
 Rev. William Moai^Y Punshon, A.M., would be of very 
 great value. We thank you sincerely for his appointment ; 
 and we would respectfully and earnestly solicit your kind- 
 ness in permitting him to reside and labour in Canada, at 
 least for a term of years, subject, in the mea*^ time, to thf 
 juriodiotion of the Canadian Conference. Thousands o| 
 people of all classes amongst us, as well as ovfrs'^^ v^rs, havi|

 and ministration-i, which, we doubt not, will be the instrument 
 of much good. In his private intercom rscj^as well as in hia

 Of Ba stern British Amertcii., to tha 
 
 CONFERENCE OF THR W. M. CI[UECH OF CANADA. 
 
 Bev. and Dear Brethren, — 
 
 Your welcome address, with cheering tidings of peace and 
 prosperity, greatly refreshed our spirics. 
 
 We have hailed with unspeakable pleasure, as an ex- 
 pression of good will and fraternal sympathy, the presence 
 of the Rev. Dr. Taylor and the Rev. Wra Stephenson* 
 Their eloquent and graphic details of your widely extended 
 and glorious toil, of earnest and successful Circuit work, 
 educational enterprise, missionary offorc, consolidation in 
 populous centres, and expansion in remote districts, have 
 been listened to with profound and griteful interest. 
 
 We have in our own Conferencei and Connexion one 
 hundred and forty four Ministers, including Supernumb' 
 raries and Preachers on probation ; fourteen thousand eis^ut 
 hundred and seventy-three pevsons iit Church membersiiip, 
 with seventeen hundred on trial ; nearly fifteen thousand 
 children in our Sabbath Schools, with seventy-one thousand 
 five hundred and ninety-thi'ee estimated attendants upon 
 public worship. Though pi-eliminarr-^ negotiations for pro- 
 posed ecclesiastical union have failel for the present, we 
 rejoice to kr'^w that existing obstjides are temporary, and 
 cherish the hope that sucli an organization may be speedily 
 and siiccessfully inaiigu rated.

 Rev. and Dear Brkthrfn,— 
 
 We have listened with delight to your truly fraternal 
 addresa. The cordial reception given to the beloved Brother 
 who conveyed to you our greetings, has been highlj-^ grati- 
 fying to us. Wo rejoice that your field of labour, in com- 
 mon with the general area of Methodistic ground, has been 
 '* favoured with religious prosperity in its best and most de- 
 sirable forms." 
 
 The patriotic sentiments which you have uttered, and the 
 interests which, as fellow-subjects, you take in iiie welfare 
 of the Dominion, Imve afforded us much pleasure. We 
 

 120 
 
 MINUTES OF TUB CANADA

 cordially co operate with you in this matter. We are, more- 
 over, fully persuaded that a tnily Evangelical Ministry is 
 designed and fitted to give every man a properly enlightened 
 conscience, and thus to provide the best safeguard of the 
 person, the charactez', the property, tlie rights, and privileges 
 of our fellow-couni&rymen. We believe that the truth as it 
 is in Jesus can more than any thing else promote that 
 delightful union of personal freedom, with united submissica 
 to Uw, which is specially exhibited in the loved and 
 honoured country that presides over us, and which foreign 
 visitors have looked on with wonder and admiration. 
 
 We rejoice still more that your best energies are devoted 
 to the spiritual and eternal biterests of men. In these 
 days of ceremonial eccentricity, of unenlightened rationalism, 
 and other " childish things," it is peculiarly cheering to see 
 the various branches of Methodist Christianity manifesting 
 the ancient and apostolical zeal for the promotion of the 
 glory of Grod by the salvation of men ; pointing them to a 
 Divine Redeemer, a Divine Pardoner, a Divine Hanctifier, 
 " that they may obtain the salvation which is in Chiist Jesus, 
 with eternal glory." We, too, make the salvation of souls 
 the grand end, and the Divine gosjiel plan the grand means. 
 
 By the liberality of our members we have been enabled 
 to take up a new Mission in the Red River Settlement, and 
 one to the savage tribe of Blackfeet Indians, near the 
 Rocky Mountains. We are giving inci-<eaaed attention to 
 the religious instruction of juveniles, under the deep and 
 solemn conviction that the Christian Church has, in many 
 phices, lost, through negligence, from the families of her 
 own members, more than the number of adults gained from 
 Ijhe vorld by revival efforts. We have held several Saubftth 
 School Conventions during the past year, and purpose to

 hold them in future in connection with every May District 
 Meeting. 
 
 We have 810 Sabbath Schools, an mcrease of 89 ; 61,321 
 scholars, an increase of 3,126 ; of these, 7,518 are over 16 
 yoEirs of age, an increase of 1,600 ; and 4,311 meet in class, 
 an increase of 705. Our Church membership is 60,400, an 
 increase of 1,943. Our Ministers and Preachei-s number 
 553 ; of these, 2 1 have been ordained at this Conference, 
 and 29 received on tnal. Six preachers have been favored 
 with permission vo avail themselves for this year of thj 
 advantages of Victoria University. We regret that these 
 do not yet include the tuition of a theological professor. 
 We confidently exptict, however, that the time is near when 
 such a chair will be established. We congratulate you, 
 dear brethren, on being in advance of us in this important 
 matter. Our o<Jucational institutions in other resj,)ects, are, 
 like yours, highly efficient and influentirj. 
 
 Our brotherly greetings will be borne to you by our 
 highly gifted and greatly beloved President. We wish you, 
 and we can scai'cely wish you a higher favoiu", that you 
 may experience blessings similar to those which we felt 
 through the gracious outpouring of the Holy Spirit, in the 
 Sabbath ministrations, and in the services and sessions of 
 the present Conference. ^ 
 
 " And the Lord make you to increase and abound in love, 
 one toward another, and toward all men, even as we do 
 toward you, to the end he may establich your hearts un- 
 blamable in holiness before God, even our Father, at the 
 coming of our Lord J^sus Christ with all his saints."

 THE ANNUAL ADDRESS 
 
 OF THE 
 
 CONFERENCE OF THE WESLEYAN METHODIST 
 CHURCH IN CANADA, 
 
 TO THB 
 
 MEMBERS OF THE CHURCH UNDER ITS CARE. 
 
 Dearly Beloved Brethren, — 
 
 We gladly improve the opportunity afforded by our 
 annual mer ng, to address to you our accustomed words of 
 pastoral greeting, counsel, and admonition. We devoutly 
 rejoice, beloved, in the evidences of the Divine presence by 
 which we have been sustained and encouraged in the toils 
 and trials of another year. Amid the opposition of the 
 world, the subtle and powerful assaults of u plausible infi* 
 delity, and the prevailing unbelief and enmit)' of unrenewed 
 hearts, the message of life, which we proclaim at God's 
 compidud, still attests its divine power to enlighten and 
 renew the sinful heart — to lift men up from the slavery 
 and defilement of sin, into the glorious liberty of the chil- 
 dren of God, 
 
 After supplying the losses occasioned by deatlis, removals, 
 and unfaithfulness, the returns from the Districts show an 
 increase in our church membership, during the past year, of 
 nearly 2,000. This increase, though affording no room for 
 self-gratulation, we nevertheless take as an encouraging 
 token that the Gospel of Christ is still the power of God 
 to the salvation of ever;- one that believeth ; and the 
 numerous proofs of the Divine faithfulness, so clearly seen 
 in our past history, inspire us with joyful confidence that 
 
^p 
 
 1868.] 
 
 WESLEYAN METHODIST CONFERENCE. 
 
 123 
 
 a« long as -'e walk by the samf) rule and mind tlie sarae 
 thing — as long as we honor God with the unfaltering trust 
 of our hearts, and labor in unity of faith and prayer for the 
 glory of Christ, Crod, even our own (iod, will be our defence 
 and salvation. 
 
 This being the year for making returns of church proj). 
 erty, we are able to make the gratifying announcement that 
 the estimated value of the property possessed by our church 
 amounts to the large su-u of $2,12G,246 ; a sum that at 
 once attests the rapid growth of our church in this country, 
 and the peerless liberality of our people, for -w hich we 
 render devout thanks to Him who puts it into the hearts of 
 his sex'vants to devise liberal things. 
 
 But we should never forget that our triumphs over " every 
 high thing that exalteth itself against the knowledge of 
 Gotl," our progress and power as a branch of the Church 
 of Christ, depend, not upon material progress, or increa.se of 
 wealth, bui, upon our "steadfast adherence to the same great 
 essential truths, and the same living expenences of God's 
 power to save from all sin, that have been our strength and 
 joy from the beginning. When we begin to hold the truth 
 with a feeble and temporizing hand, or cease to look for 
 thoire practical results in the heart and life, that are the only 
 true evidences of a scriptural and vital Christianity, our 
 glory and power will depart. Many sad examples teach us 
 that a church may maintain, in its formularies and creeds, 
 " the form of sound words," while destitute of that inner 
 spiiitual life, without which all tokens of external pros- 
 perity are only like flowers tliat bloom over decay and 
 death. 
 
 Since our last Conference the io ng^prqjected Confederation 
 of these Provinces has been carried into effect ; and our 
 

 m 
 
 'It h 
 I.' 
 
 194 
 
 MINUTES OF THE CANADA 
 
 [1868. 
 
 country has taken a higher position among the enlightened 
 nations of the eai*th. This now |>olitical position imposes 
 upon all true patriots imjxjrtant civil and religious obliga- 
 tions. You should, thei-efoi-e, Brethren, rise above merely 
 local and pei'sonal ixiterests to a broad and earnest sympathy 
 with all that promotes the true progress and elevation of 
 your country. In the Providence of God its future destiny 
 ifl largely committed to your keeping. By cherishing a 
 loyal and intelligent attachment to the goodly land that the 
 Loixl our God has given us — by faithful efforts to dissemi- 
 nate the sanctifying truth of the gospel through eve»*y portion 
 of this vast Dominion — by viewing the gi-eat questions of 
 the day in the light of the teachings of the New Testament 
 — by electing to our Legislative bodies men of integrity and 
 moral worth — and, above all, by living upright, indus- 
 trious, and godly lives, you will aid in lifting up our country 
 to a higher moral altitude, and making her a centre of light 
 and benign mfluenoes to brighten and bless future genera- 
 tions. 
 
 We would again commend to your serious regard the 
 great subject of the religious education of the children of 
 the Church. It cannot be questioned that the want of godly 
 fidelity, in the early and susceptible years of childhood, has 
 l)een followed, in innumerable instances, by the most de- 
 plorable consequences. While it is the duty of christian 
 jwrents *o co-operate to the utmost of their ability in sus- 
 taining and promoting the efficiency of Sunday School agen- 
 cies, they should never forget that they cannot delegate to any 
 agency whatever the obligation which God has clearly laid 
 upon them to " bring up their children in the nurture and 
 admonition of the Lord." Suffer us to say to you who are 
 parents, — Let the religious welfare of your children secure

 your chief regard. The highest earthly good is not wortliy 
 to be compared with this. If parents constantly show in 
 their lives that wealth, social position, or worldly honor are 
 regarded by them as objects of higher interest than personal 
 godliness, it need not cause wonder if the children of such 
 parents grow up with a low estimate of the impoi-tance of 
 (tersonal religion, and destitute of an experience of its 
 power. The wisest words of admonition will have little 
 practical influence, if not sustained by the consistent example 
 of a holy life. 
 
 At the present time, when the influence of the press is so 
 rapidly increasing, and publications, calculated to mislead 
 and corrupt, ai*e scattered broad-cast over the land, it is of 
 the utmost importance that the minds of the young be en- 
 lightened and fortified by the study of a literature morally 
 health;', and scripturally sound. Many of the works of 
 fiction, issued from the press of the day, as well as the tales 
 which appear in the monthly and weekly r^riodicals, sneer 
 at religion, and stealthily insinuate the poison of erroneous 
 sentiments. Such works, in addition to the ordinary effect 
 of cretting a morbid and unhealthy mental excitement, 
 have also an unquestionable tendency to pervert the judg- 
 ment and corrupt the heart. Let such publications be ri- 
 gorously excluded from your families, and only such litera- 
 ture supplied as will strengthen the intellect, inform the 
 judgment, and improve the heart 
 
 Our various Oonnexional Funds, repre^senting important 
 interests, so well sustained by you in the past, we again 
 commend to your liberal support. The emergencies of the 
 work have prompted us to send out three new missionaries 
 to the Hudson's Bay Territory, trusting in your liberality to

 enable us to mjet the increased expense of this extension of 
 otir work. 
 
 The position of otir TJnivermty, in consequence of the 
 proposed withdrawal of the annual grant by the Govern- 
 ment of Ontario, makes the present a trying crisis in its 
 liistcry. Its claims and interests will l)e brought before you 
 through other channels ; but we confidently hope, whatever 
 may be the action of the lyegislature, that the intelligent 
 zeal and liberality of a loyal and united people will not suffer 
 the overthrow of an institution, founded by the wiadom and 
 piety of our fathers, and intimately connected, during its 
 history, with the prtstige uid progress of our Church in 
 Canada. 
 
 We rejoice to inform you, Brethren, that our Conference 
 has been one of much harmony and peace. We retire from 
 this annual gathering to our different fields of toil and duty 
 with deepened convictions that our sucf^ess in this great work 
 essentially depends upon the presence of the Master ; and 
 we earnestly pray that God may so quicken and V)aptize us 
 with the Spirit of power from on high, that we may j)reach 
 the blessed gospel of peace, " not with enticing woids of 
 man's wisdom, b\it in demonstration of the Spirit and of 
 power." 
 
 In conclusion, Brethren, we ask your earnest sympathy, 
 zealous co-operation, and united prayers in our efforts to 
 extend the Kingdom of our Divine Redeemer through eveiy 
 jx)rtion of our country. Keep yourselves in the love of God, 
 that you may have power efficiently to labor for his glory. 
 "Abstain from all appearrnce of evil." " Let your light so 
 shine before men that they may see your good works, and 
 glorify your Father which is in heaven." '* For so is the

 will of God, that with well-doing ye may put to sileuce the 
 igcoianee of foolish men." 
 
 Be punctual and faithful in your attendance on all thoBo 
 means of Hplritual holj* and refreHhment which God has made 
 it your privilege to enjoy. Read luid study the word of (.UA 
 not merely for the sake of inci-etudng your knowledge of the 
 truth, but for the strengthening of your faith, and the 
 quickening of the life of God witliin you. Forget not, be- 
 loved, that you are stewards of the manifold gmce of God. 
 Be instant, therefore, in season and out of season, in seeking 
 to lead the guilty and ignorant around you to a saving 
 knowledge of the living Saviour. " In due eeuson we shall 
 reap, if we faint not." And as your happiness, your useful- 
 ness, and your safety depend upon your personal holiness, 
 continue to hunger and thirst after righteousness that ye 
 may be filled. Pray without ceasing, that the God of all 
 grace may enrich you with heavenly wisdom, and at last 
 " present you faultless, before the presence of his glory, with 
 exceeding joy." 
 
 " Now the God of peace, that brought again from the 
 dead our Lord Jesus, that great Shepherd of the sheep, 
 through the blood of the everlasting covenan'., make you 
 perfect in every good work to do his will, working in you 
 that which is well-pleasing in his sight, through Jesus Christ ; 
 to whom be glory for ever and ever. Amen."
