years ago since he addressed them on this subject,aince when

men in South America, but before descrihing that he
should give them • few particulars of the work ainoniot
the nativea. The Indians of Terra del Fuego had been
described by an eye witnesses lower in the social scale than
any one could possibly conceive, at night they crowded
together and lay down to sleep like so many animals,
and in time of dearth, they had been known to kill their
women and eat them, before they killed their slogs,
thinking the letter re valuable than the former. In
spite of this, and the tierce character of the people a great
and good work had been done there, and now in their
very midst there were living many Vliriatian men and
I women with their families, who were carrying on •
j blesses! work. At one time the Bishop of the FalkLy .1

lecturer then described the work on the banks of the
Amazon, and on the sea coast, illustrating his subject IT

to go Were, as it was inapo..ible for free labour toe...tupelo
with slavery. It was also quite certain the Brazilian
Government had acted very badly towards thee whom
they enticed there. The lecturer coneluded his address
by an earnest appeal to those present to do what they
could in support of the society. —The liainnan sail they
bad bush geographical education, they had bad historical
education. and he hoped they had all bad religious educa-
tion. When they considered how many ef 'our fellow-
countrymen were continually emigrating toScoith Anierica
and the lan.as number of our 'oilers is ho visited the ports.
they must feel that this work claimed their support.—
