Of Divine Providence, and in attempting
to meet the expectations of the Christian
public, the Socity has not only exhausted
its treasury, but it appeard at meeting ol
the Committee, June II, that the treasury
was short of meeting bills for paper, print
ing, and other current expenses, by the
sum of Sll.739 IS.
Notwithstanding these claims, the COM
mttce have felt it TO be their duty to an.
swer, in IA small degree, the pressing ap-
plcation Of the American Seamen's and
the Sailors and Boatmen's Friend SocIe-
ties, by appropriating to each $1,000
worth of books to commence seamen's
and boatmen's libraries. They have also
resolved, as soon as means can be pro-
cured to appropriate $1,000 TO print Pill
grim's Progress in raised letters for the
blind; and to remit $4,000 to Russia.
The committee feel that they have but
been advancing slowly in the work TO
which God has called them. The deep
interest which has been awakned in the
various departments Of the Society's ope-
rations, and especially of latein the circu-
Ialion of IT'S standard erengelical roiumes,
has created demand which the Society's
means are wholly inadequate to meet
They have no other resort but to state the
case to the Christian public, and ask their
immediate and vigorous aid in carrying on
this great enterprise, which they believe
God intends to make powerful auxiliary
in evangeliZing the world.

LONDON NiBERNIAN SOCIETY.

LONDON IIiBERNlAN SOCIETY.
The thirtieth annual meeting of this So
ciety was held a. Exeter Hall, on Satur-
dav, the 9TH Of May. The Rt. Hon. Lord
Teignmouih, one of the Vice Presidents
ofthe Society, presided in the absence OF
the MARQUIS of Cholmondeley, who is the
President. The report was read by one
of the Secretaries.
This is, in my opinion. one ofthe most
important Societies in Great Britain.
The object o: the institution is to give a
Seaptural education to the people of Ire
land. More than 100000 persons have
been taught in its schools. 1t has now
1862 Sunday, day, and adult schools, and
Il5,323 scholars.
Offs schools--10l1 are dav-schools,
$50 Sunday schools, 407 adult-schools.
1872 new schools were established last
year, ia schools ceased, 40 through OPP
position, and the others from want Of funds;
IL schools have been the actual increase.
Nearly 10000 children Of Catholic pa
rents attend these schools, and are instruct
ed in the Scriptures. The Society has
distributed 369, 800 copies of the word of
God among its schools since its organiza-
ton. The receipts last year were flO,-
4l2 9s. 105d., including tlOOO whcl'
were borrowed. The expenditures were
sf9S35 IS. 10d.
Fought TO add that this is not the only
Society which is labouring 10 extend Scrip
tural education in Ireland. What is call
ed the Kildare Place Society, whichiS pro-
testant and employs religious teachers and
uses the Bible as school book, has more
than 100000 scholars in Ireland, and has
undoubtedly done great good in that coun-
try. In addition to this the national schools
use the Scriptures or selections from them.
And still more, the Sunday-school Socie-
ty of Ireland has many schools under its
care, in which the holy Scriptures are
carefully taught to the children.

PROTESTANT ASSOCIATION.

This Association, whose object IS TO
maintain The doctrines and principles ofthe
Reformation in opposition to Romanism,
held its meeting on Wednesday, the 1lth
ofMay, at Exeter Hall. This Associa-
ton has been torned mainley to promote
the reading of the sacred Scriptures. 1t
is not sec,arian in its character. The
Marquis Of Winche!sea prcsides and ad-
dresses were made by the Duke of New
castle, Lord Roden, Henry Pownell, ESQ.,
p, Captain Gorden, Mr.. Blanchard, and
several others. There was delightful
spirit prevailing at this meeting.
The following is the substance Of part
of Captain Gordon's Speech.
He exhibited to the meeting map of
England and Scotland on large scale,
which was marked with black spots or cros-
ses in every place where Roman Catho-
lie chapel or college had been established
in these countries.
The number of those colleagues and
chapels had been registered by the Refor-
nation Society, and in one county alone
(Lancashirc) they amounted to eighty-sc-
ven, and in another Qnverncss) to seven
teen. In 1913 there we're not twenty
Catholic chapels in England and Scotland;
at the present time they amounted to up
ward Of five hundred (hear;) there were
forty more, the building of which had COM
menced since the map he held in his hand
was drawn up, and it appeared from a
statement the Dublin Review: publica-
ton the sole object of which was to assist
Mr.. O'Connelps line ofpolicy (hear;) that
forty more were in contemplation, so that
they might be said to amount 10 total OF
fre hundred and eighty in England and
Scotland alone. In the former of those
Kingdoms there were nine Roman Catho'
lie colleges, and in the latter one. To
these were attached schools, and the Sis.
tiers OF Charity, as they were called, were
daily to be found at the bedsides ofthe sick
and the dying-(hear.) He would moi
enter into very full details on the present
occasion, but he was prepared to prove that
there were shoals Of unprotected and un-
fortified Protestants caugh. in the Roman
Catholic not in our large towns, and ever
in our small country parishes. The Ro.
man Catholic machinery was working te
the conversion, or rather perversion o.

AMERICAN TRACT SOCIETY ,700IN DEBT.
The present is regarded by the COM
mittee as an importan: period of this So
ciety's operations. The past has been
year of unusual prosperity. Tract vista
ton has been attended with the most graf
flying results. More than three hundred
souls, it is believed, have through this in
strumentality, been gathered into the iold
Of Christ, in sing lie city; 100000 vol
umes and more than 100000 of Tracts
have been circulated; and $35, 900 remit
ted TO foreign and Pagan lands.
The present and daily increasing open
ings abroad have induced the Society to
resolve to raise $4,000 for foreign dis
tribution the present year. Tract visila-
ton promises much greater good than has
yet been experienced; and the demand for
the Society's standard evangelical rolumes
has compelled the committee to enlarge
their plans, and increase their efforts to
secure the necessary means for supplying
the community. This object is but par
TALLY accomplished, and needs special at
tention. Preparations are making in diff
ferent parts of the country TO circulate
books much faster than the Society has
the means of preparing them. Within Il
few weeks subscriptions have been made
for enlarging and establishing dcposto-
ries as follows, viz. Charleston, S. G.
800, Savannah, Ga. $500, Augusta
$500, Macon $500, Columbus S40O,
Montgomery, Ala. $500, Mobile $1,000,
New Orleans, including Bible and Sun
day School Repositories, and other reli-
gious books, $4,000: St. Louis, Mo. $500,
Lower Alton, III. $4,000 in part to erect

has resolved to raise $4,000 for Il deposi-
tory, one half which is already pledged
Besidesthis, arrangements are making for
large repositories at Louisville, Cincinnati,
Cleaveland, Detroit, Buffalo, and many
other places, which will probably require
an equal amount of books. The Society
indeed must expect to be called upon with
in a few months for at least $4,000 worth
of books, to enlarge and to establish de-
posltories, besides the ordinary course OF
sales which it is hoped will net require a
less amount, in following the lcadlngs
