'it h them, a degree of security is afforded that the

The Rev. TirOmnsVioxsoN in moving the-first reso-..
lotion, dwelt upon the,neeessity of providing the means
of Christian instruction for every man, woman; andchi,ld,
throughout the length` and breadth of the laud, for the
.evil tendencies of .tht 'Titions corrupted: the people
whereyer. they. went, as, was.
,the case especially in
.Australia. It was said that we were to hare a new
Reform Bill, and that the: franchise NM to, be greatly
extendel If that were so, behoved them to influence
for good,, possNex those who were supposed, whether
rightly,. or wrongly so, to be adverse to the national
church. Now, how were they to Provide instruction for
these people ? There was a time when the Government
would have gone to Parliament and asked them to vote,

five millions for the building and endowment of ohurebes,
4c. But that time had passed away, and the Church of
England had beeii, and' would .be in the future more
than ever, left to the resohtees of its own attached and
earnest members ; and if they were only thrown on the'
great resources of the Church of England and its mighty
heart began .to beat really, we should find money suffi-
Cie'nt for all theenterprises" required for the diasemina-
tion of the Gospel and for elevating the, social and moral
status of. the people. The. teve;end,gentlenian Concluded
by moving the following resolution :—" That the report
.ado .
he,pted, and that the meeting desires to express gra-
titude for the continued and increased, s'tip,pgt given to
the work of the society, proving that greats; interest
has been aroused respeoting the spiritual needs of large
populations„ and that the, impartial principle upon which
the society's grants are made is more widely alwreciatea."
The Rev. Mr. I\l'o-ILL seconded the resolittion. )141,
stated that, 'personally, he. was deeply indebted, to, W

working man like the late Celebrated engineer would
ever Have left such a sum of mone,y to the society unless
he was convinced that its offices were a real necessity.

than the artillery. AnAl 48 lite continued' much longer
