MISSIONARY Mass MEETING AT THE FIRST
BAPTIST CHURcH.-The First Baptist church
was crowded to its utmost capacity on Sun.
day night on an occasion Of more than usual
interest Services had been suspended in all
the other Baptist churches in order to allow
those who desired to do so to attend the SER
vices IN this church. The occasion was report
from Rev. j. B. Hartwell, who had been n
missionary in China from the Southern Bap-
tist Convention for the past fourteen years.
In the pulpit were Rev. Drs. Jeter, Curry,
Dickinson, Burrows, Tuppcr, and Rev.
Alessrs. Garlick, Biting, Wilson, and Hart
we'll, all of whom took part in the exercises.
After the usual opening exercises, DR.. Tup-
per, corresponding secretary of the Foreign
Mission Board, spoke earnestly of the impor-
tancc of foreign missions and the duty in
cumbent OH all to engage in the work.
DR., Curry, president of the Board of
Foreign Missions, then introduced Rev. J.
B. Hartwcll, who delivered most interest
ing address. Without attempting to follow
the reverend gentleman through his dis
course, which was plain, practical and to
the point throughout, we will say that it
gave better idea of the work of the mis-
sionary in China, the duties he has to per-
form, The obstacles which lie in his pathway,
and the work already accomplished, thai,
could he gained from any other source. His
statements, too, in regard to the condition
and learning of the "Heathen Chinee" were
in conflict with many of our preconceived
ideaS OF the cultHre and morality of that nl.
ton. Their ignorance, as depicted by him.
is deporable. His description of the differ.
ent religious scctS which exist in the Celestial
Empire was exceedingly interesting and in.
fr1,n ,nti l,,f full rs
all who were so fortunate as to hear'him.
At the conclusion of Mr.. Hartwell's re.
marks DR.. Burrows rose, and addressing Mr.
IIartwe!, offered him, in the name of the
Board, its warmeSt Sympathes, and pledged to
him and his colaborers the prayers of all the
churches, with sufficient contributions tC
carry ON the good work.
! DIR. Curry then spoke Of the missions in
Italy which were under the auspices of this
Board, and which were, he said, accomplish
ing great deal of good. In little over two
years Rev. W. n. Cote, their missionary tc
that country, had established five churche:
at different points in the Empire. Amongst
other facts going to show how the minds o.
the Government and people were changing il
this respect, the speaker remarked that two
years since a distinguished minister from,
England had tried in vain in every store an(
stall Of Rome TO purchase copy Of the Bible
and could find on9y one. Now. lie said
Bibles and tracts were distributed without
let OF hindrance all over the land, even at the
door Of St. Peters.
DIR. Dickinson, celebrated for his success in
begging for good objects, was put forward tc
ask contributions Of those present. Hi
usual good fortune attended him on this oc
casion, and Il considerable sum was realized
The meeting WIS closed with bcnedicticn by

PASSAGE OF TIE MILITIA BILL BY THE LIZ
GIsLATURE.--Both branches of the LegiSE,-
tllrc have now passed, in modified form,
the militia bill which was drafted by Il COM
mittce of officers Of the First Regiment Viz
ginia Volunteers, and reported by the Mill
tin Committee of the House Of Delegates. In
the Senate it was amended by striking out
the whole of the first chapter, or that part
which provided for the enrolment and organ-
ization of the second class militia so that the
old law on this subject is still in force. ~
In the second chapter of the bill there was
no material amendment, and that was tie
chapter in which the friends of the yOlun-
teer companies are specially Interested Its
most important feature is the provision that
all active or contributing members Of yolun-
teer companies shall be entitled to exemption
from service on .iurics. Each company is
entitled to thirty contributing members, and
persons may become such by the payment OF
$40 per annum for the support of Il company.
Service for the full term Of enlistment eN-
empts an officer or soldier FROM military duty
after such term expires.
A liberal abstract of the bill appeared in
this paper on the 23d OF February last. 1t
will undoubtedly meet with the approval Of
the Governor.
