Out of 500 Baptist churches in Indiana,
whose total membership is 81, AS-about
one-half have less than fifty members each.
As of them have less that twenty members.
A correspondent of the Cincinnati Journal
and Messenger intimates that there are
scarcely half as many clergymen as
churches in the State, and instances one
case where a minister supplies i've pulplts.
India has proved one of the most hope
full Of missionary fields. There are 100000
Protestant Christians and 1900 native
preachers and catechists in that country.
