RESOLUTIONS
RESPECTING MARIA Monk.

RESPECTING MARIA MONK.
At a meeting convened in the Ameri-
can Tract Society's Rooms, at the call of
several gentlemen, for the purpose ofcon-
sidering the controversy existing between
Maria Monk and the Romish Priests of
the Montreal Diocese, Francis d. Allen,
ESQ. was called to the chair, and the Rer
Octavius W1nsiow appointed as Secreta-
ry The following Preamble and Reso-
lutions were unanimously adopted:
Whereas, Maria Monk has hitherto ap-
pealed in vain to the Canadian authorities,
both civil and ecclesiastical, to bring her
charges against the Romish priests ofthe
Montreal Diocese, to some equitable tri-
bunal for investigation; and, Whereas
she now appeals to the people Of the UNI
ted States, invoking them to interpose in
her behalf, and demand that justice be rem
dered to her, lonely girl, in her peculiar
ly trying and unequal controversy with
the priests of the Romish church and,
whereas, the people of the United States
besides being always disposed to listen
to the voice OF the friendless and the per-
secuted-have deep and solemn Interest
IN the matter in dispute, in consequence
of the rapid increase of Popery and O
popish institutions in their country anc
also, in consequence of the contiguity o
the Canadian Nunneries, and their init
mate connection with, and influence upon
the rising institutions of America -
Therefore,
Resolved, LIST, That it is the sense o
this meeting that the appeal Of Mari'
Monk to the American people, ought Il

Of the churches are far too indifferent in
relation to the cause Of missions and edu-

praying and doing as becometh christians.
Others need to have their attention awak-
ened anew, to lead them to feel and do as
they ought for souls, the church, and Je-
sus Christ. feel an equal interest in all
the objects embraced by our convention
The Education Board is embarrassed, and
must be relieved Ii is not to be forgotten
that the board of foreign missions last veal
expended $4,000 more than its income

while new stations and an Increase Of la
