First, an address from Rev. D. II. X.
Dix, u member Of the last General Con-
ference and OF the General Missionary
Committee. Mr.. Dix had just returned
from a meeting OF the committee, and
gave a very interesting account oil the
proceedings OF that important body. The
depressed financial condition Of the coun-
try caused the committee to reduce ap.
preparations in all directions. The debt
OF tie Society amounts TO 1882 900, and
the church is asked for less than last
year for the general fund, but it is hoped
Il will give towards the reduction Of the
debt.
Rev. W. G. snodgrass, OF the chapline
Street Church, Wheeling, read an able
and elaborate paper on "The Modern Pal
pit" This paper served more fully to
convince the writer that Rev. Snodgrass
is not only a pleasant, but forcible es-
sayiit.
"Eyangelis,ic Labor" we'll prepared and
