leen:reed the great pleasure ho felt in seeing no largo an
them:Yr present, showing that they were rill animated
an
with a missionary spirit, and that among the young
especially there was rain manifested an increasing interest
in the important and good work. The great or-remand of
their Lord was will as binding upon Christians as it was
when it was uttered, and when in obedience to it, the
early disciples went forth. In misainnary work the
word, of their Lord wore still of great authority—. Go
1e into ell the world and preach the Goopel to every
creature." He did not intend to take up the time of
the meeting, but it was with deep feelings that he looked
holt to the past career of that association, the utility of
which had made itself apperenkin that through its means
1 one had been raised up, and dedicated to the great work
of mlssione, and was now labouring in China. That young
men, when secretary of that emaciation, had been
induced to lay the cause of mission, at bout, and to ask
hinne" the question why he might not beconto
roirrioruti I. The thought. the. engendered grew, and
at length be cnnsecrated himrelf to the work, and from
a letter he had lately received be learnt that be had been
the MMUS of preaching the gospel during the past years
to no leas than 137 towns and villages of China, with an
estimated population of 240,f Ife joieed in the
gamest of the ...satiation, and what h ad been accomplished
might again take place, and among the comber of youths
`.hen present probably sows one or more might in after
life be induced to devote their energies and "Yes to the
service of the Saviour.

Mr. 11. F. EVAN% the secretary of the association,
was then called upon to read the report, which was as
follow.:--in again laying before you our annual report,

increase in the funds, and an ineream of no common

Ile then proceeded to remark that though tho IMOChi-
tion had alrendy done tnneh he thought there wan every
wide field for their operotions, and that it had not yet
bran thoroughly worked. Ile should be glad, as the
e.aetery a the annoriation, to reams the pleasure of en.
rolling additionnl collectors, and giving out more boxes
to any ene desirous of receiving them. By this means
he hoped that the additional Cl alluded to in the report
would be nhtnined during the coming rear, lie re.
minded them of the old motto "Where there is • will
there is • way." and called upon them to nve additional
ea,rtions—letting love to Ood he the moving principle.
and he concluded by narrating a number of simple ways
in which children had rained goods which they bad
appropri.ded as olierinm to the mission cause.

related ninny interesting radicals,' in refennea to this

and displayed the power of the gospel as exemplified in

and then hie son and daughter. Ilia son had been
hreueht up In the minion settlement, and subsequently
educated In the mission echoed/ in London. Ile had
been informed that while there he had displayed the
greatest aptitude at learning, and his Informant told him
that at the mission ',chenille was regarded as one of the
heat of the pupil,. Ile rejoined hie father in the
minion II orb, and great hopes were entertained of his
(ohne noefulneos. He was ordained, and thus a second
intention of native clergymen was raised up, but
last year he di. cl, and his last word. were, "B. sure you
meet me in d aven." In the midst of this *Section it
was a great source of comfort to witness the christizo
resignation and patient endunnee of the father. The
character of the Indians, their mode of life, and the
savage nature of some of the tribes was alluded to at
length. Ile had area a very different scene from the
one presented in that room. He had seen the native
children, to the number of *Owe fifty or sixty, dancing
around a pole in a circle, ill all the wild exuberance of
childlike delight, and upon that pole was suspended on
the top. tinting in the breeze the long scalp locks of an
Indian enemy, and thug early was instilled hit. their
minds the feelings of revenge, of war, and of delight in

experiences and the trials to which he had been sob.
jeeted from the wltet of the comforts of civilized life.

enetentnee daring that seamen. His travels across the ,

grephicslly described. On one occasion ho bad
travelled for two months and a half, without in.
toirmuhodon, (sleeping at night sometime/ epee the
ground, or the sand, and at others upon the rocks.
In this way he had reached the different tribes, and
to all of them he had been enabled to preach the gospel
of Christ. He had been seceessful in translating the
Ocepele into the ("pea language, and his wife had trans-
lated the Epistles of St. John, and these had been
printed by the British and Foreign Bible Society; also
the Prayer Book, which had been printed by the Chris.

settlement, he had not only to learn the language, but
I to rodeos it to writing, which, from the peculiar diffi-
caltin he had heel to contend with, woo • Work of no
ordinary labour. The van, archdeacon spoke of the
Rood work that had been and wee being effected by his
coadjutors in the minden field—of Bishop Anderson,
Archdeacon Cockland, and others. Archdeacon Coek-
land resided among the Indians for 40 Inn and never
returned to this country. Ile died there last October,
faithful to the trust repond In him. Their labours had
been greatly bleswel, and In the Red River eettlement
they hail now eleven churches erected. Ile had himself
adminietenel the sacrament of the Lord's Supper to as
many as 275 communicanto at one time, and these
were all of them persons who were admitted with the
grader rare as regarded their Christian department and
discipline. Tho nature of • full 'orrice in a native
church was given as an illustration of the great change
e limited during the time he had residesl among them.
For some years DOW he had been away from Um Red
River, at Siekackewunan, with Henry Budd as his
coadjutor. When ho find went then, Budd had 1.,,.
labouring seine few years in the work, and one of his
first acts was to bring himn one hundred converts fur
Christmun baptism. lie considered this fact suflicknt to
shoe the value of native agency, and expensed it as
hie opinion that however valuable in such a country
European help might be, the great work must be left
to be accomplished mainly by native Agency. They had
eight native clergymen now labouring among the
various tribee—men who had been dedicated, instructed,
, and ordained to the work, who were well clenched and
fought in such works as " Itutler'a Analooy" and
"Puley's Evidences of Christianity." But although
