secretary; Thomas Potts, assistant secretary.
This Union was organized November 18th,
1873. ct a mass meeting Of thefricnds OF the
Ssnfay.school cause, representing all Pro.
testant denominations. Its object, as stated
in the constitution, "is by kindly intercourse
to promote Christian fellowship. increase
general Information and efficiency, promote
Bible education, and take counsel for the
general welfare OF Sunday schools" ~
-Four mass-meetings under the auspices oil
the Union have been held during the past
year, in which great dea, OF interest was
manifested and the Union fully endorsed by
leading men Of all denominations. The
Union is now preparing to collect statistical
information that will be very valuable.
Although the Uuion has only been in exist
ence one year. good results have already been
seen. -
The Union is managed by an Executive
Board consisting of the officers of the Union
and two delegates: from each denomination,
who meet monthly on the first Friday in the

The prisoners seem to regard it as great
privilege TO attend the Sunday school and
enjoy greatly the exercises. Besides the
regular instruction of the Sunday school
there are frequent sermons and other reli.
giouS exercises. ~, -.g .s ....&
The Virginia Bible Society furnishes for
gratuitous distribution all of the Bibles and
Testameu,s needed; and during the past year
several hundred religious papers, number
of hymu-hooks, and large number OF tracts
have been distributed.
More than fifty Of the prisoners have pro.
fessed conversion during the past year. and
deep religious feeling is now manifested
throughout the prison.
The officers testify that the prisoners have
never been more industrious and correct in
their department., and that fewer instances
OF second conviction for crime occur than ut
any former period !; and it cannot be doubted
that this is largely due to the Influence OF
this Sunday school (Which has been in opera
ton for six years., combined with the faith
