He who loves His Church, and regards its extension far more than the most " zealous for the Lord Qod of hosts," has plainlv stirred up the wills of His people to this work. Look back to the time when this Sociuty was first instituted. There might then, no doubt, have been enough to do in carrying out its holy objects. But there was not at that period the like pressing necessity foe such an institution. Those venerable Kocieties in England, to whom, under God, the Church in the Ooloniea may be said to owe its very existence, then stood rea(?/ to aiford liberal aid in opening new missions and assistin]^ in the erection of churches. It had scarcely then been luti- mated, that this aid would soon be curtailed, and eventually ■^ ^ wholly withdrawn. Or, if any such notice was given, so long had the members of the Church rested with confidence on the bounty of their brethren at home, that they could not at once be brought to believe they would ever bo left to ^ themselves. Ample warning was given, and now it has come to this, which it is well to repeat, till every member of the Church feels it as a call from God to individual and united ' exertion, that aU aid in. opening new Misdiona^ h/owever urgent the need or deplorable tike deatituUony ia asked for in vain: and at every vacancy^ in an established Mission, a la/rge portion of the aUowance is in each case toitlhdranjon. Had this taken place ^ an earlier period — ^had the Churcli been whoUv unpi-epared to avert the blow, how widely different woula have been our position ! Here it is we may mark the finger of God. For all the while the Parent Society was thus giving timely warning — ^ready to act upon the conviction that the Colonial Church must P'lpply its own wants — this Society has been gradually but securely growing up and increasing in 8trenc+^ and means of usefulness. It has passed through that prde;.;. of investigation which'seems requisite for all voluntary asso- ciations before they ^ain the geii-^ral confidence. Its Con^ 4 stitution has been adjusted to whai reei od the best adapted 1 to carry out its holy objects, and its m-vde of operation has become better understood and approyea of by its membeni. Nor during its growth has this Society been wholly barren m « of fruit. Not ill vaiu lias it called the attention of Church' men to what is so plainly their duty and their privilege. Not in vain nas it enlisted the Laity with the Clergy in tlie promotion of its sacred objects. Already, up to the yeat on which we Just entered, it has expended, mostly for the support of Missionaries in places where they could not else have been sent, the sum of nearly £14,000. Its claims for support are now admitted without a question. Every one wno contributes to its funds, or takes part in its proceedings, is aroused to new interest in the well-being of the whole body. Ma^ny wealthy and devout members of the Church have become its constant benefactors, and in se ver&l instances (one of which has very lately occurred), its holy aims have been present to their minds at the hour when called to " set their house in order," and make ready to render to the Great Head of the Church an account of their stewardship. In this way — and it is a most convincing proof of the vast im- Eortance of our work— bequests to a considerable amount ave been made to the Society, which will eventually very much enlarge its sphere of usefulness. It will be observed from the Annual Reports, that the main object of the Society has hitherto been, to supply in part the stipends of Missionaries in places where sumcient means could not be obtained from local resources. The General Committee, in February last, made the first appropriation for a Mission wholly independent of assistance from England, By this grant, the Lord Bishop was enabled to appoint a most zea&us clergyman to the charge of an extensive district on the Miramichi, which had lon^ been too great for the over-tasked labours of the travelling Missionary. Appro- priations of a similar kind will henceforth be required for every new Mission. For this reason, a larger amount than heretofore will in each case be called for ; and it will doubt- less be the general wish of the Society, for the present at least, to limit its resources to this object in a principal degree. For who does nc- feel that it is of the very first importance, to extend the ministrations of religion to those destitute places where they cannot be had ? And every active selt^enying Missionary, by his very work, brings additional contributions to the Society, and hastens the time when its other objects may be duly carried out. Ah*eady from the missions sup- ported by this Society, offerings to a considerable amount are yearly returned to it. And, which is even better than all, "the administration of this service not only supplieth the wants of the saints, but is abundant also by many thanks- givings unto God." Until that great day of account, when i i»- I all will be revealed, we may not kuow kow many poor and destitute souls have by this means been fed with the bread of life and brought home. We only know that day by dajr, and week by week, that work goes steadily on, which will stand when all that is of the earth shall have passed away. In the Missionary's daily routine of duty, events which would seem of striking mterest seldom occur ; but enough is known, and may be observed, to stir up all our hearts to increased zeal and heartfelt gratitude that God permits us to take a part in the attainment of the one great object of the Society — the extension of the Redeemer's kingdom on the earth. From the Reports of the Missionaries, and of the several Local Committees, the following abstract is submitted : — ANDOVEB.-r-Rer. S. Jones HaDford feels again called on to thank tho Suoiety for the last year's grant of Books; and while he sees the still undiminished interest in our small Lending Libraries, he must beg for » share in any further appropriation towards increasing the present stock. " I must beg to state," Mr. Hanford writes, " that there is a Church moch needed in the Qreeniield Settlement, towards the lower part of my mission, and I have it in contemplation to begin the erection of one. But the peopl* Iiere are poor, and must necessarily look beyond themselves for the means of accomplishing this object. Under these circumstances, I hope th« Society will be able to make a grant to help and encourage us in the work." Contributions for Aged Clergy Fund, £8 6s. ; Qeneral Purposes, £lf 8s.; total. £20 88. Blaokville and Nelson. — Rev. C. F. Street has been enabled to oollMt in this Mission, £9 IBs. 6d. since his appointment in March last The fol- lowing Resolutions were passed at the moetiog of this Local Committee^ held early in December : — 1. " That its members feel f specially moved with gratitude to Almighty Qod for the success which must be attending the Society, since there has been appointed within the last year a resident Clergyman in these Parishes by its means, independent of any aid from the Society for the Propagation of the Gospel." For this the Committee return earnest and heartfelt thanks, «nd they feel much gratified that the Missionary among them should be the first in tb« Diocese solely dependent on this Society ; the funds of which they hope will increase, till other Parishes are in a similar manner provided for. For tbia end they will not cease to pray and use their best endeavors. 2. "The Committee return thanks for the Books and Tracts, which being particularly appreciated in places where proper religious publications can> not be procured, they hope the Society will continue and increase tb« grant for this object 8. " That this Committee regrets that their contributions are not greater ; the offerings in Blackville, which would otherwise have been made to the Society, were necessarily devoted to defray the expense incurred in paint- ing their Church." In a subsequent letter, Mr. Street reports that since his appointment to Blackville aiid Nelson, he has performed Divine Service in each Parish every Sunday (the ohucohes being fifteen miles apart). The congregationa are so scattered that he is unable to have public services daring the week. In the two Parishea there are about 860 members of the Church. Th« number in attendance depends upon the weather and the aeaaon of th« year ; daring the winter season many are engaged in lambering pcrsuits. 13 JBlno* Mr. Streal't arrival In tli« MiMion, the numli«r of baptisms has been — 02 iofants and 6 adultSi Tlie present number of communieants at Nelsuo is 25, at Blaekville 20. He cannot speak very favorably Oi- correctly as to the amount contributed by the parishioners to his own support, as a year has not expired since his appointment The Olebe yields £5 this year ; but a portion of the Church land is occupied by parties who will not pay rent, 6r come to any agreement on the suliject. Cambridqb.-^. J. Soovil, Esq., has remitted to the Treasurer bis annual subscription to the Society, viz., £6. Cakfobbllo. — llev. J. S. Williams writes that the amount of contributions from this Mission is greater than lost year, vis.: £16 128. S^d. Mr. Wil- liams has enclosed a return, shewing that at St. Anne's Choroh, Welch- Eool, he has two services every Sunday, and one on each of the Festivals, esides daily prayers durins a part of the year ; and at a school house at Head Harbor, he has had five Berv:ees during the year. The number of communicants is 80; the average attenda.;:* at the Church, 60; at the school-house, 10. The sum of £36 Ss. Sd. has been contributed towards his support. Cablbton.— The Rev. F. Coster reports contributions to the amount of £10. CuATBAM. — Bev. S. Bacon has enclosed returns, shewing a very large increase in the amount of contributions, being in all £30 lOs. 9d. The following Resolutions were passed at a meeting of this Committee, held at St Mary^s Chapel on All Saints' day, the Rev. the Rector in the chair :— 1. "That this Committee view as an auspicious event the appointment recently made by the Lord Bishop of the Rev. C. F. Street to the Parishes of Nelson and Blaekville. Mr. Street is a native of this county, and a valuable Missionary. Moreover, we believe be is the first Missionary who has been maintained exclusively from the funds of the Diocesan Churoh Society, without receiving anv aiu trom the mother country, which is per- haps the best proof that could be advanced in favor of this Society, which it designed to supersede the Society for the Propagation of the Gospel, when that ancient institution can no longer extend its fostering care, and the Colonial Church must inevitably becomeiBelf-sustaining." 2. "That whilst returning our grateful thanks for the grant of Booka io Augmentation of our parochial and Sunday-school Library, we hope not to be forgotten when the next appropriation is made." Douglas. — Rev. A. V. Stuart having been oblieed, on account of his health, to relinquish his charge and proceed to Eogland, the Rev. Q, Good- ridge Roberts has been appointed to this Mission. He writes to the Society as follows : — *' I have been now for about three months in charge of this Parish, dnring which time I have visited the great majority of the parishioners. Douglas^ however, it is well known, is very extensive, and the back settlements numerous, so that some time will probably elapse before I am acquainted with the spiritual wants and condition of them uU. Those professedly belonging to the Church are far from numerous, especially in the middle •nd lower portions of the Parish ; yet, I trust, that this her time of dark- ness and affliction, when bereaTedof so many of her children, will but make this faithful few cling to her more stedfastly. There are three churches in the Parish — the extreme ones being about nineteen miles apart In these I hold two services every Sunday, and three when the state of Uie weather, the roads, or my horte, will permit it I have likewise aervieea •t the Tay Creek, and at the Bird Settlements, each once a month. The average eongregation~at the upper church has hitherto been about 100, and at the lower ohuroh it must have considerably exceeded that namber.

At tlie latter ftlaoe especially an interest has been shewn in the Society, and considerable iberality evinced towards it. A respectable collection was taken up the last time I visited the settlement, and the names of some of theiuhabiianls will be seen among the liberal contributors to the Society. Hero the peo- Cle desire to build A church, and a piece of land admirably situated hat een already promised ; so that I hope, by the blessing of Qod, before very long to see a house of prayer, though it be an humble one, erected there, and consecrated to His service. " Till witliin the last few weeks, I have had Sunday school every Sunday morning in tlie upper church, but owing to the state of the weather ana the roads, I have been compelled to discontinue it until the spring, when I hope to establish Sunday schools at oil the churches. Our heavenle Father has blessed us hitherto. To Uim be all the praise. I pray, and hope, and labour in my Saviour's strength, that the little flock which God has been pleased to commit to my care may always walk as children of the light, and giving none 'occasion to the enemies of the Lord to blaspheme,* may so ' adorn the doctrine of God their Saviour in all th'.ngs,' — that all prejudice against the church of our forefathers may soon die away — that the wanderers may return, and we all may live in unity and godly love, ' one fold under one shepherd, Jesos Christ our Lord.'" - The contribations amount to £21 16s. 4}d. Fredebioton. — ^The annual meeting of this Committee was held on tba 7th inst., when the Lay Delegates were elected. No special recommenda- tions were made to the General Committee. The Contributions amount to £186 198., all for the General Purposes of the Society. Gagktown. — Rev. N. A.

Hudson, Visiting Missionary, writes that ill health obliged him to postpone the Glenelg meeting until the Sd inst. The subjoined extracts from the minutes of this meeting bare been transmitted : — " Whereas the Lord Bishop of the Diocese has lately called the attention of oar fellow-Churobmen to the crisis now impending over oor commanioa io the following words : — 'I wish to give this friendly warning lo^jthe Church in general, that ^ unless some step be taken prudently and promptly to meet the ezigeney, at the Society gradually withdraws its aid, and in the case of. every raeancy which occurs, deducts a considerable sum from the already scanty income of the ele^yman, some missions will remain vacant, and some mutt be abandoned altogether; and I conceive the responsibility of devising tach A tobeme does not rest with the Bishop only, but with the Chnroh at large. The blame may be thrown upon me, should such an emergency arise, bat the fault will not justly lie with me, and I desire to take every step which it in my power to avert the evil. The timplest method would be, that the ChuFch Society should in each case oharge itself with the amount wbieh the Society for the PropegAtion of the Gospel withdraws^ and thut fill np the void. But in order to do this^ greatly inereated contribotient most be gijen to it.' "Whereupon it was unanimously resolved— That this meeting do heartily approve of the wise countelt oontained in the foregoing extract from the Bishop's Charge, and recommend that for the present at leatt thit Society thould guarantee and pay ' the amount withdrawn by the Society for the Propagation of the Chwpel from each Miation at the tame beeomee Taoant,' - ' u in tl)c Ju^t cxpeotaliou that greiiUy iocreaMi] aontribulioiia will be giv«a to tbis Society to do ibii • Work of mercy.'" Air. Hudson write* tbal Church matters appear to be improving In hia laborious, and at times discourngiDg , .large. During the past year, 128 Eersons have been admitted into the Church by holjr baptism, via., 61 in Ir. Hudson's portion of the field, and 67 in Blackville and Nelson, now tinder the immediate care of his fellow-labonrer, Mr. C. F. Street Soma fresh names have been added to the communicants' roll; all the marriages, save one, have been duly solemnized in the Church; Divine service has been celebrated much more frequently than heretofore, and the Church people in some portions of the Mission are beginning to act upon the rule laid down in Holy Scripture: "Let him that is taught in the Word minis* ter to him that teaoheth in all good things." Since Mr. Hudson's last report, little else of importance has occurred in the Mission, except the total destruction by flre in May last, of the farm bonse near Bates des Vents, by whose inmates a most generous welcome VfM always offered to the olergy of oar communion. The contributions during the past year, 'from this district (exclusive of those forwarded by Mr. Street), areasfollows: — Point E8cuininao,£l Os. 8d ; Olenelg, £6 lOs. lid.; Newcastle, £8 16s. 8d.; Northesk, 10s.; Blissfield, 10s.

Wiggins reports contributions from Petersville to the amount of £16; and from Greenwich, £12 ISs. 6d.; in all, £27 18s. 6d. Mr. Wiggins writes that he has not been able to call upon all the people in Petersville ; but that as he has collected a great part of th^oney him- self, he can judge from other causes besides-tbe increase of subscriptions, that the more the Society is knowu, the more it is supported. "This Mission is so extensive," Mr. Wiggins Adds, "that I have not yet become acquainted with it alL What I have seen has encouraged me to further exertion. I have service at three ohurohes and five stations, We hope the church at the Douglas Valley will be ready for consecration by the following summer." Hahfton.— Rev. W. Walker has forwarded returns, shewing the sum of £18 6s. 8d. for Missionary Visits ; £6 8b. 9d. for Widows' and Orphans* Fund; £11 Is. 9d. General Purposes ; total, £29 lis. 9d. HowABD Sbttluixnt, Canxebbuby. — Rev. J. Hartin, in forwarding a list of contributions, which exceed those of the past year, and amount in all to £8 28. 9d., offers his warmest thanks to the Society for the aid rendered to his poor Mission, which be trusts will still be continued. The grant of £26 to the oontemplated church has not yet beM called for, as the past season was in naany respects unfavorable to the work. A suitable site has been obtained, and the building, Mr. Hartin is confident, will be enclosed next summer. " It gives me," be adds, " much pleasure to state that the public services at the different stations in this extensive Mission continue to be well attended." EiNosoLiAB. — ^Rev. J.

A. V. O. Wigffins, D. D., regrets that the contributions from these parishes have fallen snort of the sum remitted last year. This, however, he thinks may be reasonably accounted for. " Our people," he says, " have been called upon to contribute largely towards building a new church, and therefore probably felt less able to give to the Church Society. Our church has cost a little over £700 ; £600 of which have been paid, and the remaining amount has been assumed by the Wardens and Vestry. A part of this sum has been subscribed, though not yet paid." Dr. Wiggins trukts the Society will assist in liquidating this debt The church is entirely finished in a manner well suited for its sacred purpose. It was consecrated on the 8th iust. Several of the parishioners have given £60, and one £70. Dr. Wiggins encloses a Resolution passed at a meeting of the Local Com* mitteeof Maueerville, thanking the Society for its last grant> and request* ins another ofa like sum, to assist in paying off the debt on the building. The contributions from Maugerville are— for Churches and Chapels, 10s.; General Purposes, £8 6s. Hid.; total, £8 16s. ll^d. From Burton, £9 4s. lid.; total, £18 Os. lO^d. MoNCTON. — Rev. W. N. Boyer has remitted the sum of £10, which i« much larger than any amount heretofore received from this Mission. Mr. Boyer writes that "It is impossible to make np the list by the 81sl Deo. ■ in this place. Our men of business are not prepared to give, as they otherwise would, if required earlier. I have nothing to say further, thau that the Church still maintains her ground, and my congregation have been very kind to me during a season of domestic sadness and sorrow." New Maryland. — ^The servioes in this mission have been regularly kept , up during the past year, with a few exceptions which were unavoidable. The attendance has been, on the whole, better than in previous years. All- the members of the congregation willingly contribute, from their littla means, to the Society. Their offerings amount this year to £7 Is. Id. NonioN..— Rev. R A.

PoBTLAMD. — Rev. W. Harrison baa enclosed £8 10s. 6d., anl regrets that he . has not been able to send a larger sum. He writes that they have been obliged to meet a debt of £210, which was incurred by the enlargedSent of the church some two years since ; and also that the venerable Society for the Propagation of the Gospel has deemed it necessary to reduce bis stipend fifty per cent Portland, St. Paul's. — Rev. Charles Lee reports £79 3s. Id. for tbe General Purposes of the Society ; and he writes that "St Paul's Church has marked tbe first year of its corporate existence as a Pariah, by an increased amount of contributions to the Diocesan Church Society. This is as it abould be, but the more gratifying when it is known that the members of my cprvgrc- 1« (atiuii Ituvtt euntribulad this year luoru Urgvly th«n luretufors towKrdt tli«i aiipport of tli« Church among th«ini«lves, and iuartating lh«« Mlary uf the Rector.

II. W. Tippctt cncloses an increased subscription list^ amounting to £10 18s. 6d., of wliioh he writes that "though small and uach below my earnest wishes, they exceed that of former years. I findi" he says, " that during the nine years I have been in the mission, nearly £600 has been raised by the few scattered families for Church objects; which, to those who know the Mission, will be considered Arlarg^tiura. A spirited movement has been made durinj; the year, at thd station Jtt the Lower Caverbill Settlement, for the erection of a church, which I hope will be completed during the present year. " My little Sunday school, taught at the Parsonage, continues to prove useful and encouraging. I have also lately been able to resume the prac- tice of public catechising at stations two and four, and trust by God's bles- sing, it will be profitable to us all. "The experience of this year furnishes nothing especially worthy of com- municating to the Society. The regular routine of missionary duty has been couscientially pursued, though indeed with many shortcomings. The visible fruit of my labours is as ydt but small ; but I live and labour in the hope that I am not working in vain, and that it will please the gra- cious Lord of the harvest more abundantly to bless the work."

The following Resolution waa passed at the meeting of the Local Committee:— "That this Committee, while reporting the sincere desire felt generally that the Diocesan Church Society may prosper in its work of love, feel sensibly the inability of the inhabitants to aid the cause which that Society labours to promote, b^ such subscriptions as would more fully express the general feeling entertained bj the members of the Church in this Parish." St Gbobgs AMD PBNMFntD. — Rcv. J. McGivem writes, that at a meeting of this Local Committee, keld on the 12th inst, Uie following Resolutions were adopted:— 1. "That upon the return of another year, we must renew our humble •nd grateful thanks to Almighty God, for His continued goodness in pro- moting the labours of this Society ; and that, in the opinion of this meeting, the time is now arrived, when it becomes the duty of every member of the Church, both by his prayers and eontribations^ to aid the efforts of a Society which must eventually be the principal and reliable source to look to for the pecuniary support of the Cnnreh in this Diocese." 1 "That while w« thank the Society for the lasl grant of Books to this / \ 17 i(or9 t«w«rtl« ikld of faith," >n fur objecU >dgr«atdutj lurch, H^ork of the liviag metu- that fillatb loriptioo list^ I email auj ira.

Mr. M«iOivern says, "that it is most gratifying to state that our people are ever^ vear becoming more and more impressed with a feeling of their responsibifity and duty to support this good cause. On no former occasion did I witness so large an attendance of the friends and supporters of the Society in this Mission. For this I am thankful, being encouraged and strengthened by the presence of so many of my lay brethren. Accept our humble ofTerings in the npirit in which they are given, with our prayers to Qod, that 'He will raue up His power and come among us, and with great might succour' this Society, for tbe advancement of His glory and the good of His Church." The contributions from St. George and Pennfield amount io all to £22 14s. lOd. St. John, St. James. — H. W. Frith, Ei>q., Secretary of this Local Com- mittee, has enclosed returns, shewing a considerable increase in the amount over those of the past year. They are — Widows' and Orphans' Fund, £1 10s. r General Purposes, £52 10s. lOd.; total, £6-1 Os. lOd. St. John, St. Mabk's. — Rev. G. M. Armstrong reports an increased amount of contributions from this Parish, being as follows: — Missionary Visits, £6; Widows' and Orphans' Fund, £1 ; General Purposes, £108 4s. 2d.; total, £109 4s. 2d. In enclosing the list of subscribers, Mr. 0. H. Fairweather, the Secretary of St Mark's Local Committee, writes, "that it is gratifying to be able to report some increase in the subscriptions. Among the leading members of the Committee the feeling is strong that our contributions must be largely increased to meet the deficiency arising from the withdrawal of support from abroad ; but many, while cheerfully renewing their contributions, fail to appreciate the importance of our Society's claim to increased support. Much may be done to remedy this, by making the people better acquainted with the work of the Society, and setting forth the fact, that this Society will shortly be the sole agency for tbe maintenance of our Church in this Province. "By a Resolution passed unanimously, our delegates were instructed to recommend to tbe General Committee, that all the contributions of our Local Committee, except the amounts specially appropriated, be applied to the objects mentioned as 1, 7, and 8, in the Constitution of the Society." St. John, Trinity. — W. P. Dole, Esq., Secretary of this Committee, has enclosed returns, exhibitinga large increase over the amount of last year, being, for Schools, lOs. ; Widows' and Orphans' Fund, £5 ; General Pur- poses, £141 6a. 8d.; total, £146 16b. 8d. The following Resolution was passed at the annual meeting of this Committee : — " Whereas tbe Lord Bishop, in bis last Charge, brought under tbe notice of the Churchmen of this Diocese, the necessity of providing for the main- tenance of their Clergy, when the Society for the Propagation of the Gospel shall have withdrawn the allowance so long granted for that purpose ; therefore resolved, that it be a recommendation to the General Committee, that a proportion of the annual subscriptions be specially set apart for the establishment of a fund for the support of tbe parochial Clergy throughout the Province." St. Stephen. — ^The Rev. Dr. Thomson writes, that the state of the travel- ling has prevented him from proceeding further than St. Andrews, and that he is deprived of the pleasure of attending the meetings of the Society. The St Stephen's Local Committee held its annual meeting on Christmas eve, and expressed unanimously their continued confidence in the Diocesan Church Society as a most efficient agency for diffusing Gospel truth through the Province, and they urged the duty on Churchmen to lend it all the ai.d 18 ia their power. The eontributionB, which tlie Rev. J. W. Street had under- taken to oolleot, will amount to the same as last year. St. Mary's, — Rev. William Jaffrey has ronoh pleasure in stating that bis Mission seems in a much more prosperous state than at any time since his first entering upon his present duties, notwithstanding he has been obliged to bear up against rouou opposition. He reports 32 baptisms during the year, ten more than last year. His people have in a most substantial way shewn their attaohmont to the Church, and their good will towards himself, by adding the handsome sum of MO to his salary, besides answering to other calls for religious purposes. In the month of July last, the Missionary made his annual visit to the Parish of Canning, and he is thankful to say that ho found the Church in higher favor with the people than on any former occasion. The congre- gations were larger than usual, and most anxious to have a resident Cler- ?yman, having subscribed £76 towards that object. There ia a Glebe and arsonage house in the Parish, which would be worth to the Ciergyman at least £26 per annum. He is thankful that the Society acted upon the suggestion made last year to send an additional Missionary to the County of ^orthnmberIand. The Clergyman so employed has been most indefatigable iu hin exertions; nor have these exertions been without their corresponding fruit. Mr. Jaffrey asks for a grant of £10 to assist him in paying the expense of a Cateohist and Lay reader for the back settlements in the neighborhood of Stanley, where there are a great number of persons destitute of the means of grace. He has secured the services of Mr. Jonas Clarkson for this important duly. The contributions to the Society are £16 12s. 6d., which exceeds the amount raised in former years. Bbbdiao. — Rev. George S. Jarvis, D. D., reports contributions amounting to £12 78. 6d., wbioh is an increase on those of former years. SnoiroB.^Rev. J. W. Disbrow writes that this Local Committee met C!;i thA 10th December. The subscriptions, together with the collection. , amount to £10 Ids. Id. "It affords me," Mr. Disbrow writes, " great satis- faction in being able to report an increase in the amount contributed over the last few years. Although the increase is small, it yet evidences a good feeling in the cause of the Society, and I trust, as the years roll round, a stronger attachment may be shewn, and a greater willingness in each one's heart to add to its funds. "The state of the Church and the services performed are much the same as reported last year. At the church at Black River the attendance has been very good daring the year. " In pursuing my parochial duties, I have but little variety as a country clergyman to lay before the Society. Should, however, any further infor- mation be required with reference to the Mission, I should be most happy to furnish it. ' SmiNGFiEtD. — Rev. C. P. Bliss writes that in 'this mission, comprising the Parishes of Johnston and Springfield, in which there are three churches, Divine serTiee has been regularly performed during the past year iu each, on alternate Sundays, unless sickness or some unforseen impossibility has prevented. There was, therefore, in Trinity Church, M services; St. George, 22 ; Irish Settlement, 22. In addition to this, he has two other stations where Divine service is performed once a month in each, in a private house. He has attended 12 funerals, with full services and sermon. There are in the Mission 90 oommunioants. The average attendance is about 45. 83 persons were confirmed by the Bishop at the English Settlement in October last There have been during the year 28 baptisms and 4 mar- riages. In the performance of Divine service, and attendanee at funerals, the Missionary has travelled upwards of 1600 miles during the year. Towards his suppbrt the people of Springfield last year contributed €26 ; /S )t had under- iting that bis me since his b«en obliged t year. His iment to the indsome sum us purposes.

Mr. Bliss suggest* that it would be advisable for the Society in each case where grants are made for the support of Clergymen, to require security from the Oburohwardens for the payment of at least £80 per annum to long as the grant is continued. " I have much pleasure," he concludes, " iu reporting that the attend- ance at each church and station, during the last year, has been unusually large, which I trust is a good sign." The contributions muen exceed those of the past year. They are in all, £22 8s. Hid. Sussex. — Rev. T. McGhee writes that the amount of contributions from the Mission is £15 fis., which is the largest heretofore made; and he prays that the Society will go on and increase. On behalf of the Local Committee, he renews the request for aid in completing the Church at the Dutch Valley, where a poor and scattered population are making great exertions for themselves. Upuau. — Rev. W. II. DoYeber is happy in being able to speak in encou- raging terras of the prospects of the Society iu his sphere of labor. He believes that the Churcliuien in his Mission are becoming more and mora alive to the duty of extending the Redeemer's kingdom by their efforts, Iheir alms, and tiieir prayers. He has received very sati»faotory evidence of their desire to obey the ordinance of God, " that they who preach the Gospel should live by the Gospel," and the readiness witn which theV have contributed, often out of very limited means, to the Society, assures uiro of their hearty sympathy in the spiritual welfare of their fellow Churchmen. Ho gratefully acknowledges, in the name of the Londonderry Settlement, the assistance which he has received from the Society in finishing their Church. During the next summer, he hopes it will be consecrated to the service of Almiglity God, and will continue for years to come a blessing to llie settlers, their children, and their children's children. Their contribu- tions amount to £28 ISs. V^d. Welfobo. — Rev. D. J. Wetmore has forwarded to the Treasurer contri- butions to the amount of £8 lOs. Mr. Wetmore writes that he has held 66 services during the year at the Church and another station. The number of communicants is 16. The average attendance at the Church is 60 ; at the station 80 ; and that jCIt lis. lOd. has been contributed to his support in the Mission. Westfield. — Rev. 0. Milner, in enclosing a long list of subsoribera, amounting in all to £7 lOs. l^d., deems it proper to state, that independ- ently of preaching in behalf of the Society, he has gone from house to house and explained tolhe best of his ability the great present and future bene- fits to be derived from it. He has obtained an increase of Hmall donations, and be trusts the smallneasof the contributions is alone attributable to the undertaking they have oa hand, united to the scarcity of money. His people are building a Church on the Kerepis^ which is nearly externally finished. He trusts they have sufficient materials, though money for labor is still wanting. Aoy aid granted by the Society will be gratefully acknow- ledged. The Church is beingbuilt on. an acre of land vested in the Corpo- ration of St. Peter's Church, Westfield. ' Westmoblamd. — Rev. D. M. Bliss reports contributions to the Aged Clergy Fund, £1; Widows' and Orphans' Fund, £1 2b. 6d. ; General Purposes, £9 10s. Oid.j; total, £11 12s. 6id. He hdpea to receive something addi- tional from Bay Verte. He has since enclosed £1 lOs. Sd. Woodstock.— -Rkbv. S. D. Lee Street has enclosed the following Resolu- tions, passed at the annual meeting of this Cooigitttee on the 4ltb December ultimo: — 1. "Thit this Committee, in tendering its sincere thanks for the books 20 . graoUd lo the leveral L«n<]iug Llbmriei aitd Sunday SoliouU iu litis Mis- ■ioD, desires to express its duep sense of the usefulness of the publioalioos now in eireulatiou by this Sooiety, and solicits a further grant towards the same object 2. "That while this Committee regards the ciroulation of Books and Tracts as an object of great importance, and as most useful to the Mission- ary in diffusing the knowledge of the truth, they cannot lose sight of what must be acknowledged by all as of primary importance, and the object to which the attention of the Sooiety should be mainly devoted, viz. : the ex- tension of the Ohurch in the more remote settlements of this Province, which can only be effected by the increase of labourers in the Lord's Vineyard. 8. "That this Committee desires to express its continued' and hearty co- operation in the important objects of theSooietv, and earnestly prays that Ood may continue to bless and prosper its work and ' labour of love,' and that it may bs the means of imparting more widely the knowledge of sal- vation ana bringing back many lost sheep into the fold. 4. "That this Committee entirely approves of the late alteration of the Constitution, by which the business part of the Society is transferred to the General Committee, thereby 8ffordio|; to all its members, through the Lay Delegates, a voice in what concerns its welfare." Mr. Street writes that he is much gratified in being able to state that the meeting was this year more numerously attendod than usual, and a much more lively interest manifested. Many were present and took an active part, who bad not attended for years before. Ue trusts a better stale uf thines has commenced amon^ them in this respect. "ft may not be uninteresting to the Sooiety," he adds, " to learn some- thing of the Missionary work done here with the aid of the Curate, the Rev. H. B. Nichols, whose income is in part drawn from its funds. The Sunday duty is the same as heretofore — five full services, with a distance of about forty miles to travel between us. I preach myself three times, and the Cu- rate twice, every Lord's day. There are also four stations, wherein monthly services are performed by the Curate — one of them is supplied every week. The first at a Settlement called Williamatown, distant 17 miles ; average attendance about 28. This is also visited monthly by the Rev. S. J. Han- ford, Miesionarj at Andover ; thereby affordine a service nearly every fortnight The second station is distant 1 1 miles, tne congregation about 8S ; the third is distant 12 miles, and the congregation is about 80 ; the fourth is distant 17 miles, attendance about 25. This last station is near what is called the Gesner Settlement on Eel River, where there are a few families belonging to the Church, who oome some distance to attend the service and have their children baptized. The Society will therefore perceive that the time of the Curate is thus, with his other duties, fully and I trust profitably occupied. "By the kind mercy of God my health has been during the past summer fully restored, so that I am enabled to resume my work in collecting for the Sooiety, from which I was hindered last year by extreme illneso." In a subsequent letter Mr. Street writes that he has been confined to the house by serious illness produced from cold, owing to expoeare in collecting in the back Settlements for the Sooiety ; this is consequently not quite fi- ' nished. The contributions amount to £66 4b. 6d. From the fpregoin^ we find that the following sums have been contiibiited to me different objects of the Society, viz., ^Missionary Visits, £18 6s. 3d.; Sunday and other Schook, XOs. ; Churches and Chapels, 10s. ; Aged Clergy Fund, £4 6s. 4d. ; Widows' and Orphans' Fund, £16 Is. 3d. ; General Purposes, £1245 Os. lOd. ; total, £1284 138. 8d.; ' I ,i 21 l« iu this Mis- e publioKtioD* it towards the of Books and the lldiMion- •iffbt ot what the objeot to viz. : the ex- jU Provinott, in the Lord's od hearty oo* ly prays that of love,' aud riedge of sal- ration of tlio ransferred to through the itale that the and a much >k an active tter state uf learn some- »te, the Rev.

Will not the nembers of the Society be soon ready to place it in a position to supply the diminu- tion to be made from time to time by the Society for the Propagation of the Gospel ? And as the settlement of the country goes forward, and its population increases, shall not the Church of Christ be enabled to increase in proportion ? Is this beyond our ability to do, if rightly considered in the way the Scriptures teach ? Here, where we are met together now surrounded by so many marks of wealth and prosperity, a little more th.in half a century ago our fathera found onljy a desolate wild arness. To what purpose has all this been given ? Why in si short JO. time have the pursuits of industry and close attention to business received such a reward? Why are your ships known to excel throughout the world ? and why does each year add to your gains and your resources ? All this, viewed Dy the thoughtful mind, wont to meditate much on the Word of God, seems very vain and transitory, if gained, possessed, and enjoyed without due regard to the prosperity and the peace of the heavenly Jerusalem — the Cnurch or the living God ; if, meanwhile^ this spiritual temple lieth waste, and the walls of the heavenly Zion are broken down, and only a very little of the silver and the ^Id, which are His, devoted to aid in building it up. Nor is it iu this city alone that much temporal prosperity has been afforded. Eveiy year, throughout the whole country, something is being added to its resources. By improvements now going forward, and the introduction of railw^s, this will, in all probability, be soon greatly increased. It is the paii of the unbeliever to regard the mere temporal improvement of the country with any satisfaction, or as likely to bepermanent and beneficial, without a corresponding increase in the means for the main- tenance and extension of the Church of Christ. Something, it must be admitted, has already been effected by this Society. It is something that its contributions have each year been increased ; it is much more to have gained the confidence and able co-operation of the well disposed mem- bers of the Church. Now it should be ready to go on with the great, the all-important work it has nndert^en. For the sake of Christ Himself— for the love of Him who came from heaven to save the lost, and when he returned, left to us the charge to " go and preach the Gospel to every crea- 22 liii'e'' — this Society cltiiiim us Un jiint diiu u liuve purtiuii Iroin the wealthy — a portion iiuloeU from every Cimrclunan *' accordiiiir aa God hath prospered liitn." It asks for the siiiallest onering to be sparocl from limited means — it will gladly receive the widow's mite. It asks for this, that it may ue " lent to the Lord ;" and whatever is so given, will Hurely he repaid. h I' 4 ■ H'K« poitiuu <^'nircliman aks for the ana— it will iiw, that it givtiij, will y\_JLii ■nli ' ■'-'*. .

The Anniversary Meeting of the Diooesao Ciiaroh Soeiety of thia Province, took place on Tliursday evening, the 22d January, at Trinity Church Sunday School Room, the Lord Bishop of Fredericton in the Chair. The weather was extremely unpropitious throughout tlie day, rendering the streets almost impassable, but there was nevertheless a large number of gentlemen present The proceedings were opened as usual with prayer. The Secretary, Rev. W. Q. Ketohum, read a full and interesting Report, exhibiting the operations of the Society throughout the Province. The Minutes of the late meetings of the General Committee, the Report of the Auditors, and tlie new Constitution, were then read. His Lordship the Bishop then observed, that after hav...g heard the Report, and also the amendments to the Constitution of the Society, and the various other matters which had just heen read, he could but express his own thanko, and he thought also he might say the thanks of the whole meeting, to the members of the Committee, who bad so patiently and so carefully suggested and matured the series of improvements of the Consti- tution which had just been submitted, and which had received the unanimous approval of the General Committee of the Society. The Rev. Dr. Gray moved the fir^t Resolution, viz. ; That the Keport now read be accepted and printed under the direction of the Ezecntlve Oommittee. He said, that it was with great pleasure that he moved the adoption and printing of the Report which bad just been read. It was customary for Societies constituted like this, at their anniversary meetings to have a report of their proceedings during the preceding year read and published, for the information of their members and of the public ; and that^ whether those reports contained accounts of a gloomy or of a prosperous and cheer- ing nature. It was right that such should be the case, and that the sub- scribers should be informed of all that concerned them, whatever might be the nature of the information. But he mu«t saj, that he had great pleasure, on an occasion like the present, in qioving the adoption of a Report, filled with matter so calculated to give eqeouragement and plea- sure to the members of the Society, as this Report certainly was. But be would first ask permission to congratulate his lordship and the meeting at large, that they met this evening in all respects but one (and that one exception was caused only by the elements, which prevented a larger attendance), under more apspioious circumstances than on any former occasion in the history of the Society. They had transferred the mere business matters and details of the Society's operations from the large rooQ of the General Meeting to the smaller room of the Committee ; thus the tine and patience of the members i^t the annual meetings were saved and relieved, as they were called upon to listen to results instead, of dis- cussions, while the members of the General Committee werc: enabled to debate all matters of business in the freest manner, and to settle and arrange everj^ thing harmoniously, without the danger of eonveying to the public mind an impression (often very erroneous), that on essential points they were a divided flock, merely because, in discussing minor i ileluild uf Ijuttiuess tnutluiB, tliey might eiitertaiu dilTert^iU uiii:ii foi-e they met this evening under more favorable auepiuea tlian lous. There heretofore ; and they did BO also on other accounte. They met under the amended Oonstitutiou of the Society ; an amendment which effected alterations calculated materially to benefit the Society, and which would form a plat- form on whioli they could all go on more harmoniously together than on former occasions, It was no reflection on the original framers of the Con- stitution, that it now required alteration or amendment They framed it as well and effectively as thev could, for a Societjr in its incipient state ; they could not possibly, at the origin or in the infancy of the Society, foresee all the ountiugencies that might arise in course of time; but now the Society had growu up to a good and sturdy youth ; experience had shewn what amendments were required ; and they now had a broad platform laid down, on which they could all go on, acting under a prin- ciple of union aud harmony. lie would now turu to tlie Report itself; and in doing S0| he congratulated the meeting, that the Ueport was in every respect calculated to encourage and cheer the members of the Society. It was stated that since the formation of the Society, no less than £14,000 had been expended by it for missionary purposes in this Pro- vince. When it was considered that this is but a young Society, formed under peculiar circumstances, and having had many difficulties to contend with, they might well congratulate themselves on this statement. It was btated also ihat the income of the Society for the present year wits £1270 ; which was about £60 or £70 more than in any previous year. There was another circumstance in the Report worthy of remark, which was, that the Society felt itself authorised, for the first time, to give a pledge for the payment of the entire salary of a new missionary; a pledge which they hoped they would be able to follow up on a larger scale in future years. The reports from the various local committees and missionaries were also highly encouraging; and in every instance, without an exuep- tiou, gave an. account of an increased good feeling and zeal among the members, and a greater determination to support and sustain the Society'. There was also encouragement for the future. The Report told us also what we are expected to do in the future. A crisis had arrived, when the Society for the Propagation of the Gospel had begun to withdraw its assistance from us, and they were about to do so much more extensively ; and consequently the support of the Missionaries in this Province must in a short time wholly devolve on ourselves. It was therefore evident, that this Society must rise tp the emergency, and make far greater efforts in future than it had ever yet made. And why not! Why should it not take upon itself, in every instance, to sustain its Missionaries, and to pro> vide for all its wants? He (Dr. G.) was more than convinced, that this Society could rise to the emergency, and meet all its requirements and neoessities. The Report of the Church Society in Nova Scotia shewed, that in 1855 the income of that Society was upwards of £2,100, or about £800 more than t^at of this Provinod. Now this did not prove that there was more zeal in Nova Scotia than in New Brunswick. He did not see, by that Report, that the amounts given to the Society by residents in Halifax were greater than, or even as great as those in Saint John ; but in the country parts of Nova Scotia the subscribers were more numerous and more wealthy than iu New Brunswick ; the population was larger and inore able to give than with us. Then again, there was a much larger number otyork aJiiltina subscribers than in this Province ; where we have fifty of this class they have five or six hundred. But why should we not, after all, in New Brunswick do as much as they do in Nova Scotia in this respect? Why should we not raise next year as large an income as they do?' Why should not every clergyman and every layman here present, So home and use his influence to ensure that the contributions next year tail be just doable those of this year ? If all would do so ; if every other clergyman now here would use his best exertions in his mission or parish in this respect, he (Dr. G.) would use his best efforts iu Trinity Parinh and / N / \ ious.

Already, allowances to the amount of £800 per annum had been withdrawn ; next year, probably doable that amount would be withdrawn, and so on gradually till those allowanoea wholly oeaaed. We muat therefore look to this Soeiety of our own, and to the enlargement of its means in propoftion to its wants. It waa gratifying to find that there waa aeme inoreaae in ita income last year; but u no greater increase were to be realised this year, bow were we to meet the amounts that would be necessary in consequenoe of Uie with- drawal of the grants from home I Happily, there waa notbinjs so expan- .aiva. ap benevolenoe. Thia had been eminently the case m UngUnd. !.

If wa land to the Lord, we shiaU receive mudh more abundantly in this life; and in the world to come, life everlasting. He (Rev. Mr. A.) hiid some- where read of a merchant who had iiiourred a very considerable loss ; what was the natni'e of the lo^ Uii could nQt now say ; but the merchant, finding h« had aaatain^ld thia iferious loss, immediately determined to give £100 to one benevolent society, and £100 to another society ; " for there," said he, " I know my property is lafe. It can't be lost there ; but it ia invested ia infallible seouritiea." He (Rev. Mr. A.) was well aware that it was not our cbaritkii our alma deeds, or our good worka, that are the basis of our hopa before God ; bnt the Scriptnrea wanrantoil him in saying, that our chatfitie^ our alms deeds, and our good works, will be the miiamre of our reward hereafter. Ha feared not to ntter these truths^ because although tbey preaanted an apparent difficulty, yetthere Waa no real difficulty in them ; our faith and faope in God must be mtidmttd by our good works; and therefore he said, that onr good worka will be the measnt^ of our reward. Why ahotild we not, therefore, in th« termk of the Besolation in bis hand, maka additional efforts to increase the funds of thia Society, in order tQ meet the emergency now brought before uaf Were we satisfied that w« had really dd.

Mr. A.) woula prest.' them no further on this point; he would only hbk them, what was their privilege, and nut what was their duty. Tlie day was ooming when every '^ one would sav, " It was right, whioh was told us, reapeottngf our^accouur - tability in tliis matter." He thought he was not pleading too atronffly, ' when he asked for a larger inerease to the funds of the Society than Had | hitherto been afforded ; when he pressed on those who had it it tneir power, ' ' to give liberally as God had prospered them ; and he was sure they would ' find it to theii: own interest to do so. Let them look around, and see how : much had been done by others; of other persuasiona and denominationr.'' Look at the immense amount of funds raised by thd Scotch Free Church"" in Scotland. They commenced without a sixpence, and their sustentation'^ fund now gives aboot £180 sterling annually to every minister In their'^ communion ; and at present they have about five or six hundred ministers. Now, he was not comparing this colony with Scotland. But when tbosa ' Free Chitrch people sebcd^d from the EsiabliBhed Church of Scotland, th6y'^ seceded from a church already provided for, whioh still retained all, its ^| funds and Resources; and thererore they had to provide for their secession" and the f^tai'e means of their church altogether. Therefore, he thought']' we might bear some comparison with that country; and as the Rev. Rector,' of Trinity Church bad very properlv said, if we would only make tha | effort, he verily believed that this colony was adequate to the emergency; ■ Only let us rise to that emergency, and we shall meet it. The present increase in the income of the Society was truly gratifying; but it vras not a quarter of what would soon be required. He would ask, whether there waa not cause for this c.trelbe effort to enlarge their fundat Let them think of the benefita that accrued to the community by the establishment of a church among them. Wherever there was stationed a clergyman of sound principles, of good working habits, and persuasive address, who gives himself faithfully to the work in which he was engaged, depend upon'] it, that he would carry an influence into his parish, and among bit ' parishioners, that Would materially improve and amend tliem, and would render every one who ^ame under that influehce a better subject, a better citizen, a bettiftr neighbor, and a better Christian, than be otherwise would have been. The influence of a clergyman was generally tt a oonsarvative Jcind ; and therefore it wbuld be beneficial to the community where be resided, and to the' country at large. If this then be the case, they might well make an additional effort, in order to promote such influences, Sut., after all, what was every other consideration compared with the con* i sidcratton of training an immortal spirit for everlasting glory I That was ' ' an object worthy of all their efforts—all their best gins. That was an objedt deaervinff all' tfaoir aid, while tbej^ lived to render it He believed it-was Pope'wnoiiiid, " It it better to give than to bequeath.** Let them, therefore, one and all^ see if greater efforts could not be made; he wished that every one of them would say, with the Rev. Rector of Trinity, that,, he' or she, for one, will do what thoy can to enlai^ge the'funds of the Society, j! and to promote the honour of Qod in the community. ' Mr. W. JtLok, insecohding the Resolution, said, that afUr the very,,'> Boleinn and impressive advocacy of the reverend genlileman wbo bad jtiAj pre'^bdid him, there was very uttle to be said in addiiiop. However, ha,^ would remar^^ that be did not regret that the Society. for tha Propagation', of the Gospel had withdrawn its aid to the clergy of thia Province Ha .^ th^ti|(ht it would liltiqiiAtely be fbdnd very benenaioL He thought it waa, ; tidiatb'at that aid ahpuld be withdrawn. We had lone received it with'., outmalcittg any ret^^ii; and therefore it would only be abewing proper ^. gratitude 'rotnkiStobie^. to allow, them to iwe their fpnds elsewhere, where th\y xi^ci'e ttiprc' iBSpeoTally needed.

He said, that all who had listened attentively to the Report and other K lepers Which had been read, and also to the very eloquent addressea which ad been delivered, must be fully persuaded of two things. Firstly^ that wa hftd a| wide apd extensive field of miiBiooary labour before us ; and aeooi^diy, that an ea^ergeooy bad arisen, that calls for renewed exertion on th^i pfirt of eiviry, member of our Church in this Province.

The total amount . of funda invMted and belonging to the Nova Bootia Hoeiety in IHSfi waa £4281 ISf. lid., from which dcduotiug the endowment fuoJ. £2818 Is. 9d., only a balance uf £1468 lla. 4id. was left for the general and miMionary ; purpoees of the Bocivty ; while in New Brunswick, in the same year, our Sooiety had a sum of £1384 Is. Od. fur its general purposes. Therefore the two Sooieties ran very closely togsthen And moreover, as his honour Judge Parker had jusi reminded him, the Move Sootia Soeiety'e amount included the eonlributions from Cepe Breton. The total rtceipU of the Nova Scotia bociety for thai year, iuoluding interest aad dividends, were £216S 8s. liH, from which deducting £1283 8e. S^d. fur special appropri< ations, a balance of only £919 168. lid. was left for missionury purposes; while iu the same year our total n»oeipts were £1216 16e. 2^., out oif which we appropriated £912 24. 8d, for miwionary purposes. So closely, then, were the ohurchee in the two Provinces wurkiug together in fighting against the powere of darknesei Then let us look at the dioeese of Quebea Iu l&fifi the total reoeipto of the Church Society there were £1181 8t. 4d.. from which only £li99 18s. 8d. were available for general purposes, including bookf, which was oousiderably leas than We appropriated (or the same purposes in that year. True, the (^ebee Society bad a large amount of funded properly of various kinds, amounting in value to £4728 ISs,; but this waa partly real estate. But the^two Soeieties were of different agea; the>'Qu^bej9 Sooiety having beePi eatabliehed in 1842, and our Society in 1880; and be (Mr. W.) believed that the Church Sooiety of New Bruna* wjok bad the honor of being the precursor of all the other similar societies on this continent. Next, let us look at Newfoundland. The Society in that island was also established in 1842 ; its total receipts in 1860 were £1080 4s. 6id., of which sum £181 were expended on buildioge, leaving only.£899 4«. 6id- for general and missionary purposes, an amount within a few pouudsof our owneimilariippropriation. To be sure, it might be aaid, that in .the, Report of the Newfoundland Sooiety there were aome namofi of plaoea not very inviting in sound, and from whioh much could hardly be expeeted, but still there were some things very encouraging, notwithstanding the strange nameai Thus '* Rogue 9 Harbor" oontributed one and a half quintal of^h; *' Harbor Buffet," " Povtrtjf Oove," and " Wr6tie Cov«," g^ve eighteen quintals of fisli; a place called " Foffo," probably from ita.foggy atmosphere, contributed Aft 4s.( another plaoe^ curiously styled " PuthX^ravfh," gave £4 ISst; and "JoeBat'a Arm" gave £7 lit, 9d. So that altogether ^the poor coloiw of NewfoundUnd had >don« remarkably well in the good ofiive. He (Mr. W.) bad not hsd the meana of examining oloaely the state of the Church in the dioeese of Montreal And Toronta Of that of Montreal he knew nothing ; but he found in pag«-27 of the Report of the Sooiety for the Propasation of the Gospel,' the dioeeae of Toitonto spoken of in tttese words:— "The most conspiouout itistanoe of thi»iiltered state of tbioge is to be found in the^r« rnkd* in the different parte of 4ha world for th« exteneioii of th^ <}httt«tl> of Obtist He fait sure that tberawaanotaiObwreliraaii'WhobaditbeprivileKe of raadioK tbei Raport^of tba Qpaiaty, Jbot^would •abAoiCtiUy-'.adiiiii tbai>w« »«• »9i)i«f {sad to MMMe soalbMBtimanta iBi;lhf) B«e«iatias ••wi)»sfnMa anniial report of that great Society, and found therein the statemcDti that the income of the lavt year was greater than ever it had been in any previous year, surely that was great matter for rejoicing among all Ohurebmen. When he saw it stated in that Report that whereas in 1886 there were only six colonial bishops, but in 166A the number was thirty-one, being three more than the whole number of bishops iu the two proTincea of Canterbury and York, he felt that we had great reason to rejoice at the efforts made by that noble Society. He fell that he would not be a Churohman if he did not endorse the sentiments of that Resolution. Every prayer of our Church, every portion of its service, was intended to apply to the world at large; all its doctrines and teachings wore designed not to lead us to pray and labour only for our Ohareh, or for ourselves, but extended to the whole church mifitant on earth. Oar Church knew ao geographical boundaries, but extended its views to the whole world: and the conversion of the souls of men in every part of the globe was its great objeot. He (Mr. T.) however, could tiot entirely endorse the sentiments of a learned gentleman (Mr. Jack) who had spoken befora him. It might be true that if we were thrown entirely on our resources, we might contribute much more lareely to the fufids of the Society than we now do ; but he (Mr. T.) would l>e sorry to see that yearly grant of £4,000 or 6,000 to the Church in this Province wholly withdrawn. He had recently had opportunities of visiting almost every part of the Pro- vince ; and not till then did*he ever fully appreciate the advantages of that Society's generous assistance; nor did he know the great extent of country in this Province still without a missionary or a ohnreb. In one district in the county of Restigouclie, he found a tract of about seventy square mile^ where there was D«th«lr a ohurchoor a missionary id its whole extent; and in another district he found that the serriees of our Church had Hot been heard for about twenty yvars past Then again, we frequently heard and read argiimcnts, as to the necessity of increasing the population of ' our Provinee by immigration. Now, what a stimulus to emigration from th^ mother country to New Brunswick would it be, if we could say to every emigrant, that their spiritual wants would be amply provided for^ and that they would at once enjoy here all the privileges they bad been accustomed to in their fatherland. He (Mr. T.) Ifad been struck by thopnlation, and their spiritual eenditiot), did tie contribtltef Mmueh tbth^ <; unds of this Society as we ought to do ( did we truly do Wf'dt ty according ' to onv ability. This was the true standard of oar duty j and: be hoped \ie shonld all prove ita correctness^ by (be next annual meeting of the Society,, by enlarging the amounts tfontribnted this year to its funas.

He observed that it was a Ileaohition which he was satisfied would meet with the cordial approbation i>f bis Lordship and of every member of the Booiety now present. He could not fancy tnat there would be one single dissentient voice. lie believed it was now nearly a quarter of a century since the Society was first founded ; that among its first founders the late Mr. Boovil, of Cambridge in Queen's Couaty, was one; and that he had ever been one of its firmest friends and supporters to the very end of his life. He (Mr. T.) believed, that Mr. Heovil took an aetive interest in the formation of the Hooiety ; and that this Society was the first of its kind •ver established in the British Colonies. It was a matter of encouragement, and a matter of pride, that the example we had thus set in this Province, had been followed in almost every colony in the vast empire of Qreat Britain ; an empire over which, as had often been observed, the sun never sets. It was a stimulus for us all to act freely and firmly io the disoharge of duty ; beoause no one knows how much hu oonseientious discharge of duty may act on and influence others to follow his example. If we in New Brunswick, from our feeble efforts, could raise up such a Society as this, which is calculated to become the main support of our Church, and thus set such an example. to other ooloniesk how «an we expect that our indivi- dual efforts will tail of meeting their due reward, or that their, example will ever be lost or prove fruitless. He (Mr- T.) did not now recall to mind all the many Instances of the Inte Mr. Scovil's gifts to this Society during his lifetime, which wore finally crowned by the noble bequest in his will. He would not enter into a discussion on the comparative merits of giving and bequeathing; but he certainly had a, ^reat respect to the man who does not forget, when the time of death arrives, to leave a por- tion of bis worldly substanoe for the spiritual benefit of tliose who suitvive him{ and at this crisis, when a large portion of our funds was about to be withdrawn from us, he felt that this noble, gift front ithe late Mr. Scovil was indeed • gift from the Alniighty, soeoially designed to assist us in meeting the present emergen«y. He believed tliat the Almighty never places His Obureb in a position that it cannol be stipooned and oiaio>- tained. While in former years we we're supported by tne parent Sdoi'ety, and latterly by means of our own Society we bad oeea m some degree trying to support ourselves, tha time had now oome when we must support ourselves. He believed that the Almighty would not withdraw His aid, but that as our neeessities arose, msans would be provided to meet them. He believed that our Oburoh Would never be suffered to fall or to decay. Situated as we now are, it was important that tbis Society should have the support of every member of the Church. No matter witat minor dif ferenoes of opinion there might be among na, when they uiit ti>g|ethttr on to their gifts and bequests^ such as those of the late revered Chief Justice •nd the fate Mr. Soovil, and, urgina others as, fair as in them lies to follow their example. He (Mr. T.) ^bought that when a.^an bad giveo bo libe- rally during his lifetime as Mr. Scovil bacl; andwben the last moment arrived in view, when the portals of the grave werfi opening to repejve him — when all earthly things were passing away, and eternity was opening before his eyes ; when at that solemn period we found him placing his hand to a will, and bequeatbinjg a large amoiintof property to this Society for the spiritual benefit of bissufVivors and successors, it shewed a confidence in the Society and ita objects aud operation!, for which the members of the Society were well entitled to record tbajr Ibjnks and admiration. H? Ji so would DOW tti«r«r()r|i iMTit ^* RMohaf^tk, jind )i« truitcd that it Voalil Ml'. F. A.

The liord Bisbopsaid* he would simply remark, that the late Mr. Seovil had not only contributed moat liberally daring his life, not only to this Soeiety, but to all other Cb^reh objects; but when he bequeathed this f)roperty to theSooiety, he did it in a manner whioh shewedhow mindful le was of his own personal responsibilities to the last moment of his life. He made this speoial. bequest, setting apart a fund for the perpetual en- dowment of the mission iu bis own parish. This was the principle which was the foundation of the.whole parochial system of the mother country. The ohurch in that parish had been built mostly at his own expense, and now he had left a perpetual' provision for its minister. He (the Bishop) DOW called on the meeting to assent to this motion by acclamation, as it would he almost an insult to the memory of the testatorai^d; toi^i^qie^lres, to make any question tipon it. :i^!i;;ii. i - r w ,ii The Resolatioa was thereupon immediately passed ananiinoiisljF^ by ■eolamation. itis Lordship then brTefly explained the ne'ees^ity for the nextBesolu- tiop, for the election of Vice-Presidents of the Society, in accordance with the principles 'of the Act of Incorporation, ^bich rendered it necessary that, they should be members of the Church of England. .The fifth Resolution was then moved by lltlr.

That the Clergy be respectfully requested to pay to the Treasurer the amount of the Scmi-Annual Collection by or before the 30th day of Juno and the 31st day of October respectively. (20th Report, page 22.) To several of tb« foregoing Lists, Subscriptions have been added sinco the Report was in print, so that the gross amount somewhat exceeds the sum stated at page 20, being in all, n little over £1,300. The Secretary regrets that the Subscription List from Springfield did not reach him iu time to add the name of Miss Amy Scovil to the number of Life Members, page 46. The name of the Rev. G. Bedell would also have been added to the number of Life Members, had the Lancaster List been received in time. The Bishop requests the Clergy to be so good as to preach the Sermons for the Church Society in June and October, and, if possible, no' to delay the second Sermon to the latt«^r part of tlie month, as the weather is often unfavourable to a Colleetion.
