out by harmony and good feeling and the
synod was shown to be in a fiourishing
financial condition. The body entered
with much spirit upon doctrinsl discus
sions involved in the question of the
means of grace, not with the object CT
establishing new points of doctrine or to
change the confessional standing of mem
bers, but to set forth the importance of
long established points of doctrine and
their bearing upon the work of the
church and the devotions of Christians
in general. At the pastoral conferences
providing for vacant charges, casuistical
questions and other matters pertaining to
the ministerial Office were discussed.
Twelve new pastors and four new con-
gregations were admitted to the synod,

ment of missionary in the new field in
