Now, dear brethren, this resolution pro-
poses remedy for these evils, by dividing
the business and attending to part OF il az

luton anticipates that the several pastors
shall present the claims of the Am. s. For.

ance to their respective congregations. Tha,
the churches will take up collections with
reference to afording aid TO these benevo-
lent objects. That reports be made of the

moneys contributed and of the general state
of religion. That Eve delegates be appointed
from each church. That letters be sent
from every church from which digest can
be prepared. 10 this way there will be time
enough al both meetings of the Association
for business and for devotion. -

REMAINS Dear Brethren - The time
was when our Associations were character
ICED by less business and more devotional
| services. Pastors and delegates would leave
| their homes with full expectation of witness
ing the outpouring Of Gods Spirit; and
they were seldom disappointed. Often has
The Holy Spirit descended, revived and AMI
mated every hear;. Sermons, prayers and
exhortations breathing the spirit of heavenly
love, owned and blessed OF God, were in
| strumenlal in the conversion Of souls.
Asain-Benevolent enterprises with their
aonropriate societies have risen into being
been approved and received into the Asso-
citation. Each distinct society has specific
business, aud claims portion o. time. The
consequences are precisely what might be
expected.

days occupied by the Association Tor bust

2. Business being considered Of more i'm
I uortanee than devotion, has occupied the
time almost TO the exclusion of devotion.
3. Our delegations have been small.
4. Few besides delegates attend, for tht
want of interest therein.
5. The audience is generally small, ane
consequently collections taken at the time
