th,. Goth alt. after a session of two
weeks. which was the longes. annual
sitting ever known in the history OF that
church. There happened to be more
than ordinary business, together With
a meeting and report Of the Baltimore
Missionary Society; which report con-
tains very pleasing intelligence oil their
success 10 civilzing and outstanding
the aborigines of our country. They
state that the last intelligence from the
Grand River Mission, Upper Can
ada, and from the Asbury Mission to
the Greek Nation, is very lncnurag-
ing Religious meetings are atten-
ded by crowds, anxious to be lnstruc-
ted; conversions numerous; societies
organized; schools opened, and those
who were, but as yesterday, in heath-
enish darkness, are heard in their own
tongues preaching the Word, and pro-
claiming the wonderful works OF Cod
The recent account from the Wyandot
Mission is also highly interesting.
Since its establishment hundreds have
received the ordinance of baptism, and
upwards of two hundred regular COM
muncants now surround The Lords
Table! In Sandusky there are nine
classes each having leader They
have also Eour exhorters, who have
appointments every Sabbath. About
fifteen ofIhese poor Indians have died
in the triumphs oil the Christian faith.
Their success among the Cherokees is
also very pleasing They have three
Missionaries. One attends TO "A school
which they have established in the cen.
tire of the nation. - Another is engaged
in the same duties in a distinct section
of the country -- The third is on cir
cult embracing about twenty preaching
places, at most OF which classes are
formed. The society in this nation
consists of between two and three hun
dred members. These are the Lords
doings, and are marvellous in our Eyes!
