Society held ut the First Presbyterian Church of
this city on last Sabbath afternoon.
The annual report of the Secretary, c. NJ. RAY,
was read by the Rev. Mr.. BABE; in which de-
TITLED, in a beautiful and most interesting manner,
the operations of the Society for the past year puy
ing deserved tribute TO the memory Of the late Sec
rotary, Miss AxTELL, who died during voyage to
the South for her health last fall, on board of
steamer near the Florida shore.
J. L. JERNEGAN, Esq, being then called upon, in
short but most eloquent and comprehensive address,
forth the results and benefits of the circulation Of
the scriptures on the desiinics of the world. He
marked that the improvements of the age aud the de-
velopment of mind in science and literature, all
seemed dependant on the bible and lis diffusion
amongst the people. Some of the nations of anti
guilty had, is true, attained great perfection in tie
arts and sciences; but they had arrived only at
certain point, when their glory had departed. They
lacked the foundation of the bible to build upon.
Amongst other illustrations, drawn from modern and
ancient history, he referred To the of BonOpare

until he was on exile in the lonely Island Of St.
Helena, has but lately been made known. when
the pomp and Pageanry Of earth had faded from his
vision, that he took down his bible and on careful
examination of the scriptures he found, from their
internal evidence, the most convincing proofs of their
divine authenticity and this internal evidence said

missionary amongst the Indians west of the Missis
sippi now on a visit to his friends in this place. as
to the advantages of their circulation in foreign
lands.
The Agent Of the American Bible Society for In

departed from the Church feeling renewed devotion
to this great cause of benevolencc.
