=. REMARKS.
The foregoing items are connected ex-
tracts from the Annual Report of the Treas
urer Of the Baptist Board Of Foreign Miss
ions, taken from the June number of the
Baptist Missionary Magazine. 1t will be
seen that the salary of one of the Secretaries
is reduced from S 100000 to 81, 10000 But
the clerk hire is increased.
Wonder if the travelling expenses of The
Secretaries, and several other members of
the Board, in attending State Conventions,
Associations, and vdrious other meetings."
includes some of the expenses of some of
those who went TO Waterbury last Septem-
Der 10 defend and keep up alliance with
slavery7
One Of the most interesting items in this
account is, the discount on uncurrent bank
notes, loss on southern and western ex-
change, and commission for collecting
drafts" amounting to S ,o2o,s9. Il would
have been still more interesting, doubtless,
! y
If the three different items made 10 form
this one, had been kept separate and exhib-
lied by themselves. Northern readers -
some of them at least-would like to know
the amount of Toss on southern and west
ern exchange" They would like also to
know what proportion of the sdiscount on
uncnrrent bank notes, !" Genes from the south
and west.
L would likewise be gratifying, il strikes
me, 10 certain northern readers and contrib
utors to know a0here tie funds come from.
