CHURCH MISSIONARY SOCIETY.
BISHOPRIC OP SIERRJ LEONE, AFRICA

THE Colony of Sierra Leone corapains between forty
and fifty thousand inhabitants, the greater number of
whom have been liberated by British cruizers from foreign
slave ships.
Many of these having been but recently brought under in-
struction, are little better than Heathens; yet the number of
persons attt.nding the public worship of God, in connection
with the Chard) of England, exceeds ten thousand. Of these
upwards of two thousand are stated communicants, and there
are upwards of six thousand children under instruction in the
Schools belonging to the Church.

These are presided over by one Government Chaplain, twelve
European Missionaries, three Native Clergymen, and fifty-six
Native Teachers; many of the latter are eligible for, and de-
sirous of, Episcopal Ordination. For such ordination the
presence of a Bishop is essential; and not for that only, but
also for the Rite of Confirmation and the "if-Pastoral Su-
perintendence of the Native Minis . A Native African
Church, under a Native Ministry, uld exhibit to the world
the noblest triumph of Briti philanthrophy, and prove a
happy consummation of all e labours of the Society for the
amelioration of the Afri rtre.
A Clergyman has b found very eminently qualified to go
forth as the first B' op, cud all that now is needed is an En-
dowment Fund.

Something braid of this desirable object has already been
done in Liverpool, (as well as at other places,) but nothing in
any measure consistent with Liverpool's commercial inter-
course with Africa, its wealth. or its responsibility.
Further assistance is therefore earreitly requested, and
Donations will be received at the Bank of Liverpool, or by
CHARLES IN MAN, Treasurer of the
Society, at Liverpool.

, ,
It was unanimously resolved, —That in the opinion of this
Meeting it is the duty of the 'Town Council to prosecute the
inquiry into the recent proceedings in the County Court, and
that it is unjust that the inhabitants should be called upon to
subscribe to defray those expenses, which ought to come out of
the public purse. But as the inquiry is to take place on Wed-
nesday next, and it is requisite that Funds should be imme-
diately raised,

It was also unanimously resolvedethat a PUBLIC SUB-
SCRIPTION for this purpose bfretiow commenced, under a
protest that such Subscripl i does not relieve the Town
Council from their duty, a can, therefore, form no precedent
for the future.
