Roman Catholic Synod in London.-The object of
the proposed Synod of Roman Catholic Bishops,
to be held in London, is to reassert the principles
set forth in the DEGREES of the Vatican Council,
and in view of the religious disturbances which
prevail in Europe. to proclaim their firm allegiance
60 the Sovereign Pontff, and their faith in the ul
innate triumph of the Church over its enemies
The social evils of the times will also be discussed,
and the treacherous attitude" which Catholic
rulers have assumed toward the Pope be vigorously
denounced. Mr.. Gladstone late pamphlet will
doubtless whet the edge OF the debates. Repre-
sentatves from the Catholic Church in this country
are expected to be present at the Synod.

A Financial Statement.

The receipts from all sources for Foreign Mis-
sions during the seven months of the last financial
year, (from April. October, 1879 were $27, $780,
ga the receipts during the same months of the
present year have been $25 sos 30; decrease OF
$l4Sl a. The decrease is found in the contrbu
tons OF the Sabbath Schools, which for these
months of last year were 81 500 81, while for the
same months this year, they amount to only ST.
83l 80. The contributions of churches, Missionary
Societies, and from other sources amount to about
the same this year as last year. 1t must be re-
membered, too. that our treasury began last year,
April, 1873 with balance to its credit OF So
534 81, whereas this financial year was commenced
with balance OF only 50 056 As. 1t must also be
stated that on account of the enlargement OF our
Miss ouary force in different parts of the world aud
the increased demands upon our treasury, on this
account, our expenditures during these months
have been some So 500 in excess of what they we're
during the corresponding months Of last year.
these facts will account for the statement that our
treasury on November /, was 81 800 in debt
This is a igni6cant fact, Of which the Church
ought to make note, and it ought to be remem
bered, besides, that there are large obligations ma
turing which must be met from month to month,
until the end of the financial year. 1t is estimated
that we must have $25 900 between this and April
next if we would 20 to the General Assembly with
report showing absence of debt. The support of
our brethren in foreign lands must be certain and
as their drafts arrive they must be paid There
are too several missionaries who have just lett, or
are about to leave for their fields of labor. They
could not be detained without such injury to the
work as would be irreparable Can the necessary
funds then to sustain the work be provided? We
think there will be no trouble about it, if the fol-
lowing suggestions are adopted:
|. There is a large number of churches which
have made no collection for this cause during the
present financial year. Let the officers of such see
that the collection is raised and forwarded at once
3 There are wealthy men and women 10 some
of our churches who, though they have already
given to this cause, will feel it privilege to help
it further, and who will gladly do so, without at
all diminishing their contributions to our other be-
nevolent objects. Let them be informed of the
state of facts, and encouraged to send their gifts
to this precious oil ject
3 This is an occasion for the institution and
working of the Monthly Concert of Ladies' Mis-
siouary Societies, and of efforts in the Sabbath
Schools. Let these several agencies be diligently
piled.
Ifthese several suggestions are promptly adopted
and acted on by our ministers and people, the fu
ture will be clear before us, no interest Of the
Church will suffer, and the work of God will pros

Rev. DR.. Field, having been twenty years at the

last number, of the changes in the press of New

$50 many and rapid have been these changes

writer finds himself the oldest editor connected

MUTUAL APPROPRIATION.

The late Unitarian Convention appointed dele
gates to attend the General Congregational Council
at New Haven. For some reason they did not tul
gil their appointment, but all representations from
Congregationslists that have come under our eye
express regret at the failure, and declare that they
would have been cordially received The COngre-
gatioaaLst of Boston, perhaps their leading paper
openly declares the opinion that the Congregation
alists and the Unitarans are gradually coming to
gether, and gives the reasons on which 1t is found
ed. This is creating good deal of feeling In New
England as there are some at least not quite ready
for such communion with those who deny the
Lord that bought them.'
Last month the two Secretaries for the Board OF
Domestic Missions of the Northern Assembly, pub
hshed in connection with the Secretaries OF the
American Home Congregational Missionary So
eiety, an agreement, in which they mutually recon-
meuded the churches under their care to amalga'
mate, going to the one side or the other, as they
might prefer, in those places where they are both
feeble. Union is certainly desirable where 1t Is
founded upon principle, and the truth OF God Is
upheld. But it is we'll known that large part Of
the Congregational ministers and people have
abandoned the distinctive doctrines of their fore
fathers, and their belief lies all around at loose
ends. How it is that Presbyterians are recon
meuded to unite with them, aud now especially
when Congregatiouslists aud Unitarians are ssiC
to be drawing nearer together, is enough to give
us pause"

Evangelistic Work for 1875

The Executive Committee stated to the General
Assembly in their last annual Report that here
after appropriations for EvaDgestic work would
he made, and the first instament thereof paid in
January, instead of in March as heretofore.
IL will be the duty, therefore, of the Chairmeu
of Presbyterial Committees to send forward spDli
cat;oas foF aid from this fund in December so that
they may be syStematized and brought before the
Committee at their meeting on the first Tuesday OF
January.
" The Manual Of Sustentation" furnishes spe
eifc information in regard to the conduct of this
branch of work, and Presbyterial Committees are
referred to it, with the request that they conform
their applications strictly to Bylaw A. as ex-
pounded In the Manual" Evsngelistic work is
beginning to take its proper place in the Church,
and it is important that it should be cor ducted
upon the best basis, and be worked by generating
presbyteries, In accordance with the mind of the
General Assembly. The receipts for this cause
during September and October have been 1909 65
less than during the corresponding months of last
year. This looks badly for the extension of the
work, and creates the apprehension that there was
great neglect in attendance to the collection 10
September. We hope, however. that in many
cases, there is only delay in sending forward the
funds and that where the collection has been over
looked it will be taken up soon as can be, with
out interference with other interests. The staple
products Of the Southern country are now in the
market, and. doubtless, in many cases where it was
deemed unadvisable to apply to the people during
September, the matter may be attended to with
success hereafter.
