CO A' ERSION of theJEITSto CHRISTIANITY.

•
Yesterday a most numerous meeting of the Society for pro.
moting Christianity among the Jews, took place at the Free-
masons Tavern, Sir THOMAS BARING, Bart. in the Chair. There
were upwards office hundred Ludic, present. The platform was
crowded with Clergymen. Near the Chairman sat Lord Micas-,
Lord Gamma, Lord CALTIIORPR, one of the Russian Princes,
the Bishop of G, °WESTER, Etc. Su.

The CHAIRMAN having stated the object of the meeting, and
the Ite-v. BASIL Woon having addressed the meeting, the children
educaed by the Society sang the hymn in flebrog " 7'o fit 4
child is born?'

The Rev. Mr. IlswTarr read the Report, which was ex-
tremely king, and contained a great deal of intelligence, trans.
mitted by the Missionaries from distant nations, as well as ac-
counts of the branches which were shouting cut in different pacts
of the Kingdom front the parent stock in London. The total
amount of the subscription for the last year exceeded 10,0001.
of which Ireland had contributed, notwithstanding the privations
under which that country had recently laboured, no less than
10001. Within the year 0431:4 copies of the New Testatneot had
been issued, and no fewer than seventy-four thousand Tracts.
An additional number of Missionaries were going out to Poland,
where the efforts of the Society were strongly felt. Jo I lolland
a steady progress was making. notwithstandi: g many end petu-
liar difficulties which arose from the great dissatisfaction the
Jews there felt at the state of their own religion. The Report
cited cases of infidelity cured by means cf the Society, and one
case of a thief who had been condemned to impri.onment in the
House of Correction for a long period, but who there became a
convert to Christianity, without any advice from the Clergyman
upon the subject, who on the 'contrary offered to intercede to
abate the term of imprisonment, on condition that the convert
would follow strictly the precepts of his own religion. The offer
was refused, the J.!ve was baptised, remained in prison until his
crime. Was expiated, and was now in the service of a man who
placed the moat unbounded confidence in him. The Report
concluded with a eall for more funds.
