The MATO/ replied that his thought a personal

liminary, and he held himself in readiness to go to
London for that purpose whenever the totru clerk was
there, so that they might see Br. Bateman together.
Dr. Atiatirion referred to former effort, to obtain •

they were told by Duchy officials that Bement Kees

they were offered was • triangular piece neat Lb.

SOME AMERICAN MISSInNS.
This week has been signalised by a visit from the
Bishop of the Falkland Islands and an effort on behalf
of the South American missions—a eoetinuation of the
lamented Captain Allen Gardiner's plan, by which he
hoped toss. fulfilment of the promise that 'the ends
of the earth shall see the salvation of our God." On
Sunday se, mons were preached at St. John's, Radipole,
and the sum collected for the society was £23 4..
The public meeting woe held on Tuesday evening in
St. John's schoolromna,whieb,although the evening was
cold and windy, sn4 the jo urns, rather disagreeable,
were crowded to every part. The Rev. J. Stephenson
presided, and around him was quite a fashionable
assembly, who were scarcely able to find seata. The
proceeding' baring commeneed fiy singing the hymn
" Arm of the Lord," accompanied by a lady on the
harmonium and by Mr. Oakley and the boys of the
choir, the Rev. J. Stephenson .•ffered prayer.
