Remarkable Very,

The Lexington (Va.) Gazette is res.
ponsible for the item givon below. The
editor of the Gazette is said to DO a
preacher, else the editor nf the Lynch

it "a tough yarn" but it is, under the
circumstances, strictly true, of
course

An American Missionary Converted Il
BrnhmiSm.

Occasionally the people of England
are the subjects of missionary effort by
highborn Brahmins, with enooura ging
results. Our turn may come next not,
indeed. through the compassion Of an
ludian prince, but by ond of our own
caste. The first missionary sent out
by the American Unitarian A,so.
citation went to India as the most
promising field for Christian effort,
and 10 has turned out to be the field
himself. Rev. G.. II. A. Dali has
been converted to Brahmism, and rs
joined the Brahmo Sonaj, the Chur ,h
of God tbeistio, of Bengal. He thus
becomes disci plo and brother of
Keshub Barbu Cbundor Sen, in whose
organ, tho Indian Mirror, he presents
his Justification and creed Of puie
theism, at the conclusion, of which he
invites his friends to come to his
house in Dhurrumtollah for the In.
spection and study of, not tho Bible
but the works Of Ram Mobnn Roy,
adding "Tho complete sincerity of
my purpose to aid my brethren can
only be proved by my labors in tho
cause Of that one God without SEQ
ond, for the preaching Of whose gos-
pei l came to India"
