The Annual Report From this it appears
that the general affairs of the Society are
prosperous, the Society rigidly adhering
10 the policy of never suffering their dis
bursements, 10 any serious amount to
exceed their expenditures, except under
the strong pressure Of peculiar circum-
stances. AT the same time its operations
are circumscribed by the limited amount
il receives. 1t regards itself as only the
devoted agent of the denomination in ed
ucating their ministry. and while it might
greatly. and to good effect enlarge its
operations, should the churches en,rust TO
il the means, it deems it neither polite
nor just, greatly 10 exceed or anticipate
those means.
The whole number of young men as
sisted by the parent Society during the
year is lO9; received under patronage
The past year Is; dismissed Is; leaving
the present number of benefciaries ga

twelve have been ordained, and of these
ten have been settled as pastors, in Maine

been sent out as missionaries, one to ia
maica, and one to Asam, one has received
an appointment as q Professor, one ha
been dismissed to the Young Mems EI
ucaton Society of the city of New Y ork
and one to the patronage of the FRS

The Branch societies report consid

their bene6ciaries and in the amount Q

the branches is but 80, which is % lie;

There is one objection we have to the
proceedings of this meeting,-that is, the
appointment of delegates to the Worlds !
Convention If this COMFORTS with, the
character of the kingdom of Jesus Christ,
we have greatly misunderstood the nature
of that kingdom, as presented and describ-
ed in the New Testament. For members
Of the visible church of Jesus, as such, to
assemble, and unite in addressing breth
! rem of the same faith and order, on the
subject of alleged abuses of brethren and
sisters in seryitude at the south, so as to
get at facts exatcly as they are, may be
all very desirable and proper; but for
this same body to delegate three of their
members TO 60 to England, and to sit and
represent the visible church of Jesus, or
section of 1t, in a convention called the

NEw-ENGLAND s. S. UNION.
The 9th anniversary of this Institution
was held in the Baptist Church, Federal
street, on Tuesday afternoon, May 70
The President, Mr.. John B. Jones, occu-
pied the chair. After prayer by Rev. ).
Ballard, Of Lowell, the annual report OF
the Board of Managers was read by the
Secretary, Mr.. II. S. Washburn.
The report exhibited, in a condensed
form, the operations OF the Union during
the past wear. The services ofthe travel
ling Secretary have been dispensed with.
This measure was adopted in order TO
curai as much as possible the expenses
Of the Institution, and from convention
that the denomination would render col~"-
tarily the aid which might be requisite to
carry forward he operations ofthe Union
This expectation, however, has not been
realized so fully as was anticipated. Inc
funds received by the Union the past
year amounted in donations to 1881 81
cents, and from sales of books to $500 "a
cents. Total 80, 1877 SIS cents. VI the
donations 1913, was contributed by an as
ISOLATION of Young men in Boston, thus
leaving but a small sum as the contrlou-
tons Of the churches.-The report attrIb
utes this great diminution from the amour
ofdonations in former years partly to tn
embarrassed state of money matters IN tn
community. 1t regrets that such are IN
facts, since the Board have thus been pre-
vented from meeting the absolute wants

supply of mental and spiritual food for tn
young. Such, however, have been tn
