The report of Rev e. d. Morris, the
chairman of the standing committee OF
the Board of Home Missions of the Pres
byterian Church, North, furnishes proof
of the profound interest the members Of
that church have in the dissemination OF
religious truth. 1t appears from this
official statement that the number of
churches organized during the year past
was 40; Sabbath schools established,
81; houses of worship built, 119; new
members added to the church, 10, 1872
To Home Missions there was contributed
during the year from all sources the
large sum of 1873, 627. 80, an increase OF
more than $3.50, 900 over that of the pre-.
ceding year, and the largest, it was
stated, ever given for the same purpose
in any single twelve month by any evan
gelical denomination on the continent.
Such results as these demonstrate the
practical interest which the people Of
the United States take in religion
