REUNION OF TRACT SoCIETY-Dr. Tyg
contends, in the Christian Times, for there
union of the American Tract and the Boston
Tract Society. He thinks the reasons o'
the organization of the latter have ceased
He says -
We see no reason why there should bot
be reconstruction which will bring the two
Societies together, that we may have hereafter
as in former years, one great American Tract
Society. The cause which produced the Sep
ara ton has been removed, and We trust The
separation itself will now soon cease. Surrey
Their must be some mode of uniting these two
bodies, which are now doing precisely Toe
same work, and thus save much unnecessary
expense as we'll as the appearance OF DIVISION
when there is substantial union.
