The Corresponding Secretary OF the Board has
visited the New-Jersey New England, New
Hampshire, and New York Conferences, and has
found the missionary spirit b. common CONSENT
rising ard spreading. The anniversary Of the
New-Jersey Conference Missionary Society was
very spirited and pleasant. There was an over.
flowing audience and the address By Rev. De.
Holdieh, on the general aspect Of missions. aud
Rev. DR. McClintock, on the Foreign Mission, were
heard with evident pleasure. The Secretary then
made some general remarks, when the collection
was taken and subscription followed. The sub
scription commenced with a proposition to raise
$500 for the building Of the irst Methodist Epsco-
pal Church in Germany, in the free Cisy of Bre-
men, according 20 the recommended on of the
Board Of the Parent Society. To this two brethren
Immediately promised SIS each. At this juncture
the Secretary suggested tina. other portions Of the
Church would wish TO have part in the building
of this Church, and that probably portion OF the
evenings subscription for this purpose would be
satisfactory. There seemed to be an scquiescence
in this suggestion, and the subscriptions proceeded
spiritedly. The whole amount raised including
the next evening in South Camden was about 500.
