Missions reported that within the last twelve
mouths $S23.99 had been contributed by
congregations and individuals, 10 the bounds
of Pre>bytcry. to the General Assem0lJ's
committee. The collections for this cause
had been largely increased, and 10 some cases
doubled, by the efforts Of Sabbath schools
and ladies' associations. The report closed
with strong appeal for larger donations,
based upon the fact that so many OF the
churches ia the ASsembly's bounds TALL 10

before our committee. The committee O!

Our railroad DEF 8: is noted for the crowd
u,U,ilv assembled on the arrival Of the trains,
but it has seldom, if ever, presented such
scene as it d d this morning, On the depar-
ture of the Rev. II. D.. Handy, who TOR over
five years has been the faithful and beloved
pas.or of the Baptist church in this town.
The crowd presented the appearance of
mors cr union prayer-meeling, in which Bap-
lists, PrcSbyterians, and Mc;hodists had met
for a common object. Certainly no such at
fec,jny sight has ever been witnessed herc,and
il must have sHcctencd TO some extent the
cap OF bitterness at parting for the late pas
tor to see such evidenccs Of love and regard
Oh the part of those whose spiritual welfare
he has llbOrcd for so zealous!y and 50 long.
Combining himself strictly and solely TO his
ministerial and pastoral duties during his
residence amongst us, it can be truly said of
:,im that he knew Z" nothing among mcn save
Jesus Christ ard Him cruciticd." The Bap'
list church here and the community gene
rally Will be fortunate if they soon succeed
IN filing the vacant pl ice by one as fully de-
yoled to the gospel ministry as their late
n4stor, and doubly fortunate when the place
Of his noble, gentle, and unseltiSh lady shall
be Ilkewisesupplied. As teacher OF the largest
