YOKOHAMA. April 20, 1873.
An Irish Presbyterian Preacher Called
to America.
The Newry Qreiand) Telegraph announces that
call has been presented by a congregation in
Boston to the Rev. J. II. Munro, the talented young
minister of Sandy street congregation, Newry, and
the call Is likely to be accepted by that gentleman,
IT, indeed, such is not already the case. The con-
gregation over which Mr.. Munro has been invited
to preside is very wealthy and influential one
and supports mission church, besides carrying on
various other evangelistic agencies. The stipend
offered Is $1,000 per annum, with two months
other advantages 1t notices the coincidence that
the Rev. W. I. Martin, Mr.. Munro's predecessor in
Sandys street, has received a call from the Cooke
church, Toronto. The stipend offered Is $4,000,
but 1t is not known definitely whether or not Mr..
| Martin will accept the call.
