AND IRELAND, CARLIANIMIT AREIELDLE.D.
THE humble eetitinn of the undersigned Persons
reaidng in er near the Metropolis, being the Treasurer,
Secretaries, Directors, and Mrbere of a certain vol.intary !:n-
-known, by the name oflthe MIiSIONARY St/CIE CY.;
instituted in the year 1711.5, whose sole object Is to spread among
'Heathen and other unenlightened Nations, the knowledse of the
Christian Religion, •
•
auxtvicTst,
That the Inhabitants of the popnleme regime in India, winch '
form an important portinn of the DritisttEmpire beiqg it.volvs d
in the most deplorable ante of moral darkness, and.under t;se 11.-
111.11 race of the must alsemittahle and degescling superstitions, have
a preeminent claim on the compassionate feelings and beuevo-
: lent service, of British Christian..
That this :ympathetie cl,sposition has been powerfully fit
tltrottgbowr the kingt:om, and plans have been formed, and aae.
quasi. inetrunumts and funds-provided f,:r the purpose of cx.:etid-
iirg tire knowlede,, of the Cheistkes 'Yetis 'en hi hone.
' That t!..e vharte-s whin'. have been granted to the East India
Company have provided that every perso.etlesdrous of proceeding
to and residing in that country, should preriotely obtain a licence
/or that purpose-from the Directbrs of that Company.
What although this regulation may have been proper and nectodi
nary for commercial and political purposes, yet your petitioners
humbly conceive that it was not intended to impede the probreus
of Christianity, or place under the control of the Directors, a
subject so intimately connected with the moral and iutellectual
condition of man, and his final destiny.
That this power, so vested in the Company, has unhappily
been the occasion of obetructing, In a great degree, the ear cution
of those benevolent plans which had for their object the propaga-
tion of the Chritian Religion in India.
That the n 134113114 which have been expressed, both as to the
impracticability of attaining this object, and the danger of civil
commotion in attempting it, are regarded by your petitioners as
founded either in prejudice or misapprehension, and are demon.
strafed to bee, neous by the evidence of facts.
That the M ':ary Society through else kindness of the en.
cutive Govern which they tweet' 311 occasions experienced,
and most gran ackneseasidge, have for several years past had
Messionary st ions in the Colonies of the Cape of Good Hope,
Demaiara, Tieidad, Tobago, and also on the Continent of India,
and they are willing to appeal to the Governors presiding over
them, as to the character and proceedings of those Missionaries,
anti as to the conduct of those who attend on their instructions. ,
That the Missionaries sent out by your petitioners—desiroes
only of protection, and not seeking to be invested wish civil as.
thority, wit not have the power any more than tise inclinat'on to
promote C'iristianity by means of coercion—it would moreover,
be inconsistent with their principles, as also with that success,
which reqaires a peaceful, and not a disturb:el stare of society.
That is the propagation of Christianity in India, their ?skis.
sionaries ire instructed not to excite the prejudices of the natives,
by declamations against their superstuioes—but to rely for their
success upon the divine blessing attending a candid statement of
the evidences which sustain the Christian religion, of the sacr.Al
doctrines, promises, and precepts of which it principally consist,
—and on their exemplary and blameless lives, attended by deed •
of kindir2ts, and good will to the natives.

1 hat your Petitioners are not merely willing, but very desir-
ous that the Government, both at home and in India, should be
fully acquainted both with their principles and their mea;ures, by
which it will appear that their Missionaries receive full iiittrue-
tions on the great Christian principles, which form good and
peacn.ble subjects and useful meintwrs of civil society.
That your Petitioners being most firmly attached to the eon.
stitution of the countr;., and ardently desirous of its true prospe-
rity, dignity, and perpetuity, arid being convinced that the sta-
bility and glory of Christian stations depend en the practice ut
Christian duties, are conscious that in endeavouring to anise
the principles of Christianity to the utmost extent of the British
dominions and influence—they are acting on,the purest principles
of patriotism, and rendering the most important services to their
country. . .

'That in conformity with those views, your Petitioners receive
the highest satisfaction from the resolution of your Honourable
House, passed in the year 1793, viz.
" That it is the peculiar and bounden duty of the British Le-
gislature to ptomote, by all just and prudent means, the interests
.std happiness of the inhabi:ants of the British dominions In
India, and that for these ends such measures ought to be adopted
as may gradually tend to their advancement in usetui knowledge,
and to their rekious and moral improvement "
And your Petitioners therefore humbly hope, and earnestly
intreat your Honourable House, that in the Charter intended to
be granted to the Last India Company, such provisions may be
made, as may secure the admit.sion of Christian Ministers and
Misvonaries into India, and their protection there so long as
they shall act agreeably to the laws, and to the duties of good
and peaceable subjects.
Agd your Petitioners shall ever pray, &c. &c. &c.
