This  is  a  digital  copy  of  a  book  that  was  preserved  for  generations  on  library  shelves  before  it  was  carefully  scanned  by  Google  as  part  of  a  project 
to  make  the  world's  books  discoverable  online. 

It  has  survived  long  enough  for  the  copyright  to  expire  and  the  book  to  enter  the  public  domain.  A  public  domain  book  is  one  that  was  never  subject 
to  copyright  or  whose  legal  copyright  term  has  expired.  Whether  a  book  is  in  the  public  domain  may  vary  country  to  country.  Public  domain  books 
are  our  gateways  to  the  past,  representing  a  wealth  of  history,  culture  and  knowledge  that's  often  difficult  to  discover. 

Marks,  notations  and  other  marginalia  present  in  the  original  volume  will  appear  in  this  file  -  a  reminder  of  this  book's  long  journey  from  the 
publisher  to  a  library  and  finally  to  you.

MADAGASCAR. 


The  Members  of  the  Society  must  have  shared  with  the  Directors  in  their 
anxioiis  and  painful  solicitude  in  reference  to  the  state  of  the  Qovemment  in 
Ibdagascar,  and  more  particularly  as  to  the  truth  or  otb^rwise  of  the  reports 
that  KAT>AifA  II.  was  still  alive.  To  these  reports  we  referred  in  our  last 
number,  but  the  intelligence  received  from  the  Rev.  William  Ellis,  on 
which  they  were  founded,  reached  no  later  than  September  19th,  and  arrived 
in  this  country  on  the  5  th  of  November,  By  the  last  mail,  which  reached 
England  on  the  7th  uli,  no  intelligence  was  received;  but  in  the  "  Mauritius 
Commercial  Gazette,''  which  that  mail  conveyed,  and  which  contained  intelli- 
gence from  Madagascar  to  the  end  of  October,  there  was  not  the  slightest 
reference  even  to  the  rumour  of  the  King's  being  alive— on  the  contrary,  the 
latest  information  from  the  capital  would  all  lead  to  the  conclusion  that  such 
a  report  was  entirely  disbelieved. 

By  the  South  African  mail,  however,  which  arrived  on  the  23rd  ult., 
ve  received  letters  from  the  Rev.  "William  Thompson,  of  Cape  Town, 
dated  November  20th,  in  which  he  states  that  Mr.  Cameeon,  who  arrived  at 
AjfTAJfA^ffABivo  on  the  6th  of  September,  had  addressed  letters  to  his  friends 
in  the  colony,  in  wliich  he  affirms  that  the  report  that  the  king  was  living 
I  was  entirely  unfounded.  The  following  article  to  that  effect  we  copy  from 
\  the  "  South  African  Advertiser  and  Mail,"  of  the  19th  November : — 

"  Mr.  James  Cameron,  sen.,  who  recently  left  Cape  Town  for  Madagascar, 
writes  to  his  friends  of  his  safe  arrival  at  the  capital,  Antananarivo,  early  in 
September.  He  speaks  with  much  pleasure  and  satisfaction  of  the  highly 
favourable  reception  given  to  him  both  by  the  government  and  the  people; 

I  and  describes  the  intelligence  and  consistency  of  the  native  Christiaiis  as 
deserving  of  very  high  praise.  He  states  that  the  story  of  the  King  being  still 
alive  proves  to  be  altogether  false.  The  persons  sent  to  put  him  to  death 
foond  the  King  and  Queen  together  early  in  the  morning.  They  first  of  all

removed  the  Queen  to  another  room,  and  kept  her  there,  while  they  despatched 
the  King.  She  was  then  proclaimed  Queen,  and  in  the  course  of  the  day 
showed  herself  from  the  baloony  of  the  palace.  The  head  officer  ai  Analakely 
was  soon  after  sommoned  by  ihe  Queen,  and  requested  by  her  to  see  the  body 
interred  in  the  best  way  they  possibly  could.  He  then,  with  the  workmen 
from  this  place,  made  the  grave.  They  had  the  body  from  Tuesday  morning 
till  Thursday,  when  the  grave  was  finished.  Before  putting  the  body  into  the 
grave,  he  asked  one  of  the  men  to  remove  the  cloth  from  the  face ;  the  man 
did  so,  and  exposed  all  the  face  above  the  upper  lip,  and  they  had  no  doubt 
whatever  of  the  identity  of  the  body.  At  some  dist-ance  to  the  west,  the  people 
got  up  a  report  that  he  was  still  alive  and  with  them ;  and  a  great  numb'er  of 
the  people  got  into  a  kind  of  revolt  on  the  subject.  But  troops  were  sent  to 
quash  the  tumult ;  2000  men  were  killed,  and  a  large  number  of  women  and 
children  were  brought  to  Antananarivo  as  slaves.  The  Queen,  however, 
decUned  to  hold  them  in  slavery,  and  sent  them  back  with  some  money.  The 
French  are  very  angry  about  the  non-fulfilment  of  the  treaties  between  them 
and  the  late  foolish  King,  and  for  which  the  latter  lost  his  life ;  but  it  is  not 
in  the  power  of  the  Queen  to  fulfil  Badama's  part  of  the  treaties,  if  she  were 
ever  so  willing.  The^officers  and  people  would  probably  send  her  a^^er  hear 
husband  if  she  attempted  to  do  such  a  thing.  One  would  think  thait  such  a 
position  should  moderate  the  violence  of  the  French." 

On  the  whole,  when  we  consider  the  knowledge  possessed  by  Mx,  Cameron 
of  the  language,  character,  and  manners  of  the  people  of  Madagascar,  and 
the  favourable  position  which  he  enjoyed  for  ascertaining  the  truth  or  other- 
wise of  the  report  which  he  gives  above,  we  are  strongly  inclined  to  concur 
in  the  conclusion  at  which  he  arrives,  namely,  that  the  King  was  actually 
assassinated  at  Antananarivo,  at  the  time  of  the  revolution — the  12th  of 
May  nit.  Of  course  we  are  ignorant  of  the  details  of  the  case,  for  which  we 
must  patiently  wait  for  further  arrivals ;  and  we  shall  be  glad  to  find  that 
the  report  has  not  originated  either  in  astonishing  credulity  or  gross  impos- 
ture. 

"We  must  again,  however,  remind  our  readers  that  the  successive  communi- 
cations  we  have  received  in  reference  to  the  state  and  progress  of  the  Mission, 
hxve  been  nniformly  most  cheering ;  and  that,  if  the  internal  state  of  the 
country  is  not  disturbed  by  the  armed  intervention  of  the  French  Government, 
in  support  of  the  monstrous  treaty  granted  by  the  late  King  to  M.  Lambert, 
the  fatuie  history  of  Madagascar  promises  to  be  bright,  both  in  respect  to  the 
improvement  of  society  and  the  progress  of  the  Gospel.  Let  the  prayeors  of 
the  Churches,  then,  be  continued  with  humility  and  fervour  to  the  great 
Governor  of  nations,  that  He  would  guide  the  councils  of  rulers — frustrate  the 
\  of  the  selfish — and  bring  forth,  out  of  passing  evUs,  aboundiog  good.

FOR  JANUARY,    1864. 


CHINA. 

SHANGHAE. 

OuB  Mission  in  tHs  immense  and  ever  increasing  city,  when  we  consider  the 
willingneBS  of  the  people  to  listen  to  Christian  truth,  and  the  numbers  that 
baye  actually  embraced  it,  is  highly  encouraging.  But,  on  the  other  hand, 
the  unparalleled  influx  of  strangers  driven  into  the  city  for  protection  and 
support,  and  the  state  of  destitution  and  disease  to  which  thousands  and  tens 
of  thousands  have  been  reduced  by  the  horrors  of  intestine  war,  could  not 
fell  to  operate  very  prejudicially  upon  the  labours  of  our  missionaries. 

The  following  letter,  from  the  Rev.  "William  Muikhead,  will  show  the 
overwhelming  character  of  these  labours ;  and  we  can  only  rejoice  tiiat, 
notwithstanding  the  difficulties  with  which  our  Brethren  have  to  contend, 
&ey  are  enabled,  by  means  of  native  agency,  and  under  the  blessing  of  Grod, 
to  widen  the  circle  of  their  operations,  and  are  cherishing  sanguine  hopes  of 
^  eatablishment  of  the  Gospel  in  a  hundred  villages  in  the  country  around 

We  trust  that  before  this  Mr.  Muirhead  has  been  joined  by  the  Eev.  R.  J. 
TnoKAs,  who  will,  we  doubt  not,  prove  an  efficient  fellow  labourer  with  oui 
devoted  Brother. 

EXTRACTS  OF  LETTER  FROM  REV.  W.  MUIRHEAD,  DATED  SHANGHAE, 
OCTOBBR  28rd,  1893. 

DISTRESS  IK  SHANGHAE,   CONSEQUENT  UPON  THE  GREAT  INFLUX  OF 
POPUTiATION  FROM  THE  PROVINCES. 

"  During  the  past  six  months,  thirty-one  have  been  received  as  catechumens, 
and  a  few  have  been  baptized.  The  very  peculiar  state  of  things  here  has 
operated  against  our  apparent  success  to  a  great  extent,  and  it  will  be  needful 
to  supply  the  charities,  as  well  as  preach  the  truths  of  Christianity  to  the 
people,  in  their  present  distressed  condition.  Ample  fiinds  have  be^i  provided 
by  friends  for  this  purpose,  and  from  time  to  time  distribution  has  been  made  ^ 
on  a  large  scale.  But  this  general  system  is  not  foimd  to  be  of  much  advan- 
tage. Though  the  Grospel  is  announced  to  all  in  a  promiscuous  mannei%  yet, 
as  th^  are  professedly  assembled  for  charitable  purposes,  the  former  is  lost 
sight  of,  while  the  latter  is  all  in  all.  It  seems  an  important  duty  at  this 
period  to  exhibit  the  amenities  and  blessings  of  our  religion  in  connection  with 
it,  and  in  the  case  of  those  who  give  evidence  of  interest  or  concern  in  it.  As 
the  winter  is  approaching,  this  appeal  comes  more  strongly  upon  us,  and,  by 
a  timely  response  to  it,  we  hope  to  commend  to  many  aroimd  us  the  more 
spiritual  blessings  of  Christianity. 

LARGE  AMOUNT  OF  CHARITABLE  RELIEF  FOR  THE  8TTFFERER8. 

"The  efforts  made  by  the  Chinese  to  alleviate  the  sufferings  of  their 
countrymen  are  perfectly  astonishing.    Several  associations  have  long  been

in  existence  that  dispense  an  immense  amount  of  cliaritj  to  the  thousands  of 
needy  and  distressed  all  around.  Soup-kitchens  and  clothing  establishments 
have  been  formed,  and  from  day  to  day  hundreds  are  kept  alive  through  their 
influence.  During  this  year  coffins  have  been  also  supplied  for  the  dead,  at 
the  rate  of  four  and  five  hundi-ed  a  day,  and  everywhere  these  institutions  are 
highly  commended.  Such  are  the  circumstances  of  the  people  at  present,  that 
it  is  this  kind  of  things  which  chiefly  meets  their  views ;  and  when  the  Grospel 
is  preached  to  them,  a  primary  consideration  with  them  is,  what  are  the 
advantages  connected  with  it.  Of  course  the  Roman  Catholics  are  wise  in 
their  generation,  and  act  accordingly  in  this  matter.  But  apart  from  them, 
and  the  conduct  of  the  heathen  in  the  case,  our  blessed  Lord  and  the  conduct 
of  the  primitive  Church  sufficiently  point  out  the  course  we  should  adopt  in 
the  inculcation  and  exhibition  of  the  generous  spirit  of  Christianity. 

"  I  am  thus  particular  in  referring  to  this  point,  ftx)m  a  conviction  of  its 
having  been  too  much  disregarded  in  our  past  labours,  and  from  our  having* 
been  so  far  behind  the  pressing  wants  and  claims  of  the  times.  Our  object  is 
to  meet  these  wants  more  folly  in  the  future,  as  connected  with  the  preaching* 
of  the  Gospel,  and  by  aid  from  the  Native  Church  and  our  foreign  Christian 
friends,  to  extend  our  efforts  in  this  way  to  'them  that  believe.'  When 
existing  necessities  shall  have  passed  away,  the  aid  now  afforded  will  be 
gratefully  remembered,  while  its  fruits  may  be  found  to  appear  in  the 
increased  prosperity  and  advancement  of  the  Church. 

EXTENSION  OF  THE  GOSPEL  IN  THE  TILLAGE  DISTRICTS. 

"  Our  country  stations  are  in  a  hopeful  condition.  At  one  of  them  we  are 
building  a  chapel  that  will  cost  about  £100,  and  it  is  exciting  considerable 
interest  in  the  coimtry  round  about.  Already  fifty  converts  are  there ;  twenty 
or  twenty-five  are  on  the  roll  of  instructed,  and  a  pleasing  feeling  is  abroad 
in  relation  to  Christianity.  I  was  in  that  direction  a  short  time  ago  for  a 
week,  and  visited  a  number  of  places,  all  in  a  sad  state  of  desolation. .  It  is 
our  design,  however,  to  establish,  under  the  care  of  native  agents,  about 
twenty  stations  and  churches,  and  the  whole  under  the  vigilant  oversight 
of  the  foreign  missionary.  As  the  work  goes  on  and  the  coimtry  is  tran- 
quillized, it  is  resolved  to  increase  the  number  of  these  to  a  hundred  or 
so,  extending  through  the  province  in  every  possible  direction.  We  find 
the  Roman  Catholics  are  taking  due  advantage  of  the  openings  in  the 
country.  They  are  building  chapels  and  forming  stations  in  many  different 
places;  and  though  not  impelled  by  them,  it  is  needful  to  imbue  ihe 
Mission  with  life  and  vigour,  for  the  sake  of  expansion  and  confirmation 
in  the  case  of  those  connected  with  us. 

**  The  hospital  is  being  carried  on  with  the  usual  efficiency.  The  attendance 
is  as  large  as  before,  and  hundreds  are  gathered  together  daily  to  hear  the 
Word  of  life."

EXTRACTS  mOM  THE  JOUENAL  OF  THE  "JOHN  WILLIAMS" 
OX  HER  I^ST  VISIT  TO  THE  ISLAITOS  OF  VESTERK^ 
POLYNESIA. 

The  sixteentfa.  voyage  of  our  missionary  ship,  under  the  superintendence  of 
the  Ret.  W.  "W-  Gixl,  of  Mangaia,  and  the  Ret.  John  Jones,  of  Mare,  was 
soccessfoUy  accomplished  during  the  autumn  of  1862.  The  journal  has  only 
recently  readied,  us ;  but,  knowing  the  deep  sympathy  which  the  friends  of 
the  Society,  and  especially  the  young,  cherish  in  the  continued  usefulness 
which  attends  the  visits  of  the  *'  John  Williams,"  we  are  persuaded  a  few 
extocts  will  afford  them  pleasure  and  encouragement. 

It  is  now  twenty  years,  within  a  few  weeks,  since  our  good  ship,  designed, 
by  the  name  slie  bears,  to  commemorate  and  extend  the  labours  of  the 
mart3rred  "Williams,  began  to  plough  those  distant  and  dangerous  seas ;  and, 
throughout  tliis  long^  period,  though  often  in  peril,  she  has,  by  the  good 
proTidence  of  Grod,  always  escaped  serious  injury.  With  the  return  of  each 
Toyage  she  visits  new  islands,  often  inhabited  by  pagan  savages;  and, 
although  they  may  haTe  found  heretofore  in  the  white  man  their  cruel 
enemy,  they  have  in  no  instance  molested  the  officers  or  crew  of  the 
missionary  ship.  The  explanation  of  this  will  be  found  in  the  truth  that 
her  fame  has  gone  out  through  all  the  groups  of  the  Pacific ;  and  the  people 
hare  hailed  her  approach  as  the  messenger  of  peace,  and  giren  her  welcome 
to  their  shores. 

"  Sept.  17thy  1862. — ^We  bade  farewell  to  our  Sydney  friends,  and  once  more 
sailed  for  our  isXand  home.  Next  day  we  were  becalmed ;  but  on  the  night 
following  a  strong  breeze  sprang  up,  and  carried  us  rapidly  on  our  course. 
On  Tuesday  morning  the  welcome  shout  of  *  Land  ho ! '  was  heard,  and  in  a 
few  hours  we  were  off  Norfolk  Island.  Captain  WilHams  was  requested  by 
the  Gtovemor  of  New  South  Wales  to  couTey  to  that  interesting  spot  various 
soppHes,  and  a  passenger  named  Fredrick  Young.  Freight,  to  the  Gk)vemor'8 
surprise,  we  declined ;  but  it  was  intimated  that  a  donation  to  the  Society 
would  be  accepted. 

ACCOUNT  OF  KOBFOLK  ISLAND  SETTLEMENT. 

"We  found  that  'Norfolk  Island'  comprises  three  islets:  JPkilip  Island, 
I^epean  Island,  and  Noifolh  Island  itself,  which  is  nineteen  and  a  half  miles 
round;  evidently  the  three  isles  were  formerly  one.  Norfolk  Island  is  a 
beautiful  spot,  everywhere  adorned  by  the  noble  pine  which  deriTes  its  name 
from  it.  Many  of  those  trees  are  of  gigantic  growth.  We  spent  a  day 
landing  their  greatly-needed  supplies.  The  Rev.  Mr.  Nobbs  gave  us  a  very 
kind  reception.  The  islanders  made  a  donation  of  £20  to  the  Society,  and 
sent  presents  for  the  ship.  Mr.  Nobbs  estimates  the  present  population  at 
300.  l>aring  the  six  years  they  have  been  on  the  island  there  have  been  100 
births*    and  ^only  fifteen  deaths  (four  of  these  were  accidental) ;  so  that  the 


6  MISSIONABY  MAGAZINE 

island  must  be  remai'kably  healthy.  English  only  is  spoken.  There  are  a 
very  few  old  people  living  who  can  speak  the  Tahitian  langfuage.  They  are 
Tery  respectful  to  visitors,  and  are  kind ;  they  are  very  inteUigemt ;  a  book  is 
a  moat  acceptable  present.  They  meet  for  Divine  worship  where  formerly 
the  convicts  assembled  on  the  Sabbath.  They  seemed  to  be  contented  and 
happy.  They  subsist  on  the  English  potato,  the  sweet  potato,  the  yam,  and 
Indian  com ;  wheaten  flour,  sugar,  and  salt  are  imported.  We  saw  the  taro 
plant  growing  freely.  Each  person  is  entitled  upon  maniage  to  fifty  acres  of 
lajid;  and  each  takes  his  turn  in  supplying  vessels  with  what  they  may 
require,  so  that  there  can  be  no  pauperism  among  them.  They  are  a  good- 
looking  race,  a  shade  darker  than  ourselves,  and  tall.  They  are  strictly 
moral ;  many,  we  hope,  are  decidedly  pious. 

"  It  seems  that  shortly  after  their  migration  to  Norfolk  Island,  two  families 
returned  to  Pitcaim's,  and  are  doing  well  there. 

"  Many  inquiries  were  made  by  the  islanders  as  to  the  spread  of  the  Grospel 
in  Polynesia.  They  asked  after  several  missionaries  by  name ;  one  of  them 
said  that  he  distinctly  remembered  a  sermon  preached  by  the  Rev.  J.  Williams 
at  Tahiti,  in  1831,  from  the  words,  *  Comfort  ye,  comfort  ye  my  people,  saiih 
your  God.'  One  of  them  is  now  pr^>aring  at  Auckland  to  go  forth  as  a 
missionary  under  the  auspices  of  Bishop  Patteson.  It  was  with  nmch  regret 
that  we  parted  so  soon  from  these  interesting  people. 

THE  MISSION  ON  MAB^  :    CONTRAST  BETWEEN  THE  CHBI8TIAN  AND 
THE  HEATHEN  TRIBES. 

"  Sept.  2Qth, — ^We  dropped  anchor  off  the  station  of  the  Rev.  J.  Jon#s»  on 
the  island  of  Mari,  found  the  teachers  left  here  all  well,  and  Mr.  Jones  ready 
to  accompany  us  as  deputation  to  the  dark  islands  of  Western  Polynesia. 
Since  we  were  here  on  our  way  to  Sydney,  six  person  have  been  killed  and 
eaten  among  the  heathen  tribes,  Teanae's  people  have  been  fighting  with  their 
enemies,  and  have  entirely  scattered  them.  Their  success  has  inclined  them 
to  think  favourably  of  Christianity,  and  as  the  result,  they  have  embraced 
that  religion.  The  people  of  this  station  are  improving  fast  under  Ohristian 
instruction,  and  are  becoming  annually  more  civilized,  and  leaving  their  hea- 
then brethren  farther  than  ever  in  the  rear.  The  contrast  is  very  great 
between  the  peaceable  and  decently  clothed  Christians,  and  the  whitewashed, 
fiendish  looking  heathen,  who  delight  only  in  war,  and  devouring  each  others" 
bodies. 

"  The  missionaries  report  here  that  the  disastrous  effects  of  the  measles 
have  passed  away.  The  war  in  which  the  Christians  were  compelled  to 
engage,  to  defend  themselves  from  the  inroads  of  the  heathen  tribes,  has  been 
mercifully  brought  to  a  close,  and  the  Christians  are  able  to  give  their  whole 
attention  to  the  cultivation  of  the  soil,  and  public  improvements  for  their 
temporal  benefit,  and  to  attend  upon  schools  and  the  services  of  the 
sanctuary  without  distraction. 

''  'Hie  new  stone  church  at  Mr.  Jones's  station,  which  has  been  at  a  stand- 
still so  long,  owing  to  war,  pestilence,  and  famine  combined,  is  now  in 
progress  again.  It  is  already  ten  feet  above  the  ground,  whieh  with  nine  feet 
below  for  a  foundation,  gives  nineteen  feet  of  two  and  a  half  thick,  solid

mMacfnrj.  The  people  give  one  week  per  month  to  this  bmlding ;  the  rest  of 
tiieir  time  thej  are  engaged  in  their  gardens,  in  erecting  or  repairing  their 
own  premises.  The  public  schools  are  weD  attended,  which  are  held  only  on 
Mondays  and  Saturdays,  the  people  being  at  their  plantations  in  the  interior. 
"  I%e  Boarding  Schools,  conducted  respectively  by  Mrs.  Jones  and  Mrs. 
Greagh,  to  obviate  the  necessity  of  the  children  leaving  with  their  parents  to 
go  inland,  are  both  in  a  flourishing  condition.  These  boarding-schools  are 
sopported  by  private  subscriptions.  The  missionaries  anticipate  much  good 
to  result  from  them  in  the  coming  generations.  The  children  now  being 
trained  and  educated  in  them  will  then  be  exerting  great  influence  among 
the  people;  their  knowledge  wiU  be  power,  their  position  will  command 
respect,  and  their  instructionfl  attention. 

"  The  Church  under  the  care  of  Mr.  Jones  numbers  151 ;  that  rmder  the 
care  of  Mr.  Creagh,  103.  Besides  these  there  is  a  goodly  number  of  candi- 
dates for  Church-fellowship  at  each  station.  An  institution  for  the  training 
of  native  evangdists  has  been  organized,  under  the  care  of  Mr.  Jones,  with 
the  sanction  of  the  Board  of  Directors  at  home.  Eleven  promising  young 
Bien  have  been  admitted;  th^  have  themselves  built  their  own  dwelling- 
hooBes  and  lecture-room — ^the  latter  is  not  yet  completed.  Two  young  men 
from  this  institution  were  appointed  as  teachers,  to  proceed  in  the  '  John 
WflKama,'  to  Amf^iym,  in  company  with  the  two  natives  of  that  island, 
hroog^  away  last  year  in  the  '  John  WilHams,'  and  placed  for  instruction 
nder  the  eare  of  Mr.  Jones.  These  two  lads  were  doubtiess  the  first  who 
had  cprer  left  their  island  home,  and  now  that  they  had  the  prospect  of 
ntoming,  their  exeitement  and  ddight  was  very  great. 

•*  Oct,  3rrf. — Taking  Mr.  Jones  on  beard  as  deputation,  we  proceeded  to 
Gnwahma,  the  station  of  Mr.  Creagh. 

**  We  saw  here  some  fine  muscular  men  bdonging  to  the  tribe  of  heathen 
who  hove  just  embraced  Christianity.  They  had  procured  some  caHco  for 
deiUng,  aad  had  come  to  Nece  to  spend  their  first  Obristian  Sabbath.  The 
excitement  of  the  change  to  them  is  something  like  what  a  holiday  is  to  young 
people  at  home. 

•*  Mr.  Creagh  is  printer  for  the  whole  of  the  Loyalty  Group,  Mar6,  Lifn, 
and  nea»  three  distinct  dialects ;  so  that  together  with  his  other  duties  as  a 
mJaaianaTy,  he  must  have  his  hands  full.  He  has  a  very  nicely  fitted  up 
prkitaBg-office,  and  is  assisted  in  it  by  some  of  the  natives  belongmg  to  his 
own  station,  who  make  very  good  attempts  in  the  various  branches  of  the 
work ;  still  they  require  his  constant  supervision,  and  like  all  other  natives  in 
theft  seas — if  not  elsewhere — are  unable  to  do  a  tidy  job  of  mechanical  work 
withoat  some  one  to  plan  out,  arrange,  and  direct  tii^n. 

*'  '&»  people  <^  tiiis  island,  althongh  so  lately  emerged  from  the  grossed 
hcatlMn  practices  and  canmbalism,  are  doing  wonders  for  a  people  so 
destitute,  when  we  remember  too,  that  €%ht  years  ago  no  Church  was  formed 
amongst  them ;  now  the  two  Churches  number  254  members,  and  during  the 
past  year  they  raised  upwards  of  £91  for  the  London  Missionary  Society, 
being  £17  7«.  6<^.  towards  the  funds  of  the  Society,  for  the  spresul  of  the 
Gospel  among  the  heathen,  and  £73  13i.  Qd.  as  payment  for  their  books,  to 
\  m  defraying  the  expenses  of  tiie  printing-office.    The  Churches  here  have 


8  MISSIONARY   MAGAZINE 

also  eommenced  to  sn^ort  their  own  evangelists,  by  making  an  fl-n-nnal  collec- 
tion of  clothing  and  useful  articles  for  their  use.  They  have  always  supplied 
them  with  a  weekly  or  monthly  allowance  of  yegetables.  I 

POSITION  AND  PROSPECTS  OF  THE  NEW  HEBRIDES  MISSION. 

"  At  the  meeting  of  the  missionaries  here  it  was  found  necessary  for  the 
*  John  Williams '  to  proceed  direct  to  Aneiteum  before  going  to  Lifu  and 
Uea,  and  October  9th  we  reached  that  island,  and  cast  anchor  in  the  harboiur 
off  Mr.  Geddie's  station.  Messrs.  Geddie  and  Copeland  were  soon  on  board ; 
we  learnt  from  them  that  all  the  members  of  the  Mission  were  well,  and  that 
the  good  work  in  which  they  were  engaged  was  prospering.  Mrs.  Johnstone, 
widow  of  Bey.  Mr.  Johnstone,  late  of  Tanna,  is  zealously  engaged  conducting' 
a  school  for  Mrs.  Geddie.  We  doubt  not  that  in  after  years  the  missionaries 
on  this  island  will  bless  God  that  such  a  school  ever  existed.  The  deputation, 
met  in  committee  with  the  Brethren  of  this  island.  Mr.  Copeland  and  Dr. 
Turner  were  appointed  deputation  for  next  year,  1863. 

"  Mr.  Copeland  contemplates  recommencing  the  Mission  on  Tlramanganext 
April,  and  wishes  two  of  our  best  teachers  to  be  appointed  as  his  assistants  in 
the  work.  In  the  meantime  th^  will  remain  with  him  on  Aneiteum  to 
become  initiated  into  the  dialect.  Putaura  and  Putangi,  two  Barotongau 
teachers,  acceded  to  the  request  of  our  Mends.  Mr.  Geddie  is  desirous  that 
Elia,  formerly  resident  on  Eramanga,  should  be  sent  down  by  the  Samoaji 
Brethren,  to  co-operate  with  Putaura  and  Putangi,  as  he  is  well  known  and 
much  Hked  by  the  Eramangans.  The  Brethren  on  Aneiteum  also  request 
that  Mr.  Krause  send  three  additional  Rarotongan  teachers  by  the  '  John 
Williams,'  on  her  return  to  Sydney,  to  reinforce  the  New  Hebrides  Mission. 

''We  were  rgoiced  to  learn  from  our  Brethren  here,  that  three  new 
missionaries  are  expected  next  year  in  company  with  the  Bct.  J.  Inglis,  to 
reinforce  the  New  Hebrides  Mission.  Baurara,  a  Rarotongan  teacher,  whom 
we  left  here  temporarily  on  our  way  up  to  Sydney,  was  in  good  health,  but 
his  wife  being  weakly,  it  was  decided  that  they  should  be  permanently  located 
on  the  Loyalty  Islands. 

"  Our  coming  to  Aneiteum  first,  before  proceeding  to  the  North,  proved 
very  providential,  as  we  here  learnt  the  fate  of  the  Santo  Mission,  which  ia 
entirely  broken  up.  The  teachers  were  attacked  by  the  malaria  a  fortnight 
after  landing.  First,  the  wife  of  Vaitari  died  on  November  22nd,  1861 ;  on  the 
6th  of  December  both  the  teachers  themselves  died — Lameka  and  Vaitari — 
leaving  Lameka's  wife  only,  with  their  assistant  teacher,  Daniela,  and  hia 
wife.  This  couple  were  quite  free  from  the  fever,  as  they  are  natives  of  Fate, 
an  unhealthy  island.  Lamia's  wife  would  doubtless  have  been  carried  off^ 
too,  but  for  the  great  kindness  of  Captain  Hastings,  of  the  *  Spec,'  a  sandal- 
wood trader  belonging  to  Mr.  Bums,  a  gentleman  whose  kindness  to  our 
teachers  is  above  all  praise.  Captain  Hastings  permitted  her  to  live  six 
weeks  on  board,  while  lying  off  Santo,  and  then  brought  her,  with  Daniela 
and  his  wife,  to  Aneiteum,  where  we  found  them  awaiting  the  *John 
Williams.' 

**  The  Mission  on  Tanna  being  so  completely  broken  up,  it  was  thought 


FOB  JANUAKT,   1864.  9 

ooneceesarj  for  us  to  call  there,  and  the  '  John  Knox,'  missionaiy  schooner, 
expected  soon  to  visit  Fotuna  and  Nine. 

THB  LAND  OV  THS  MABTTBS. 

"  On  the  Idth  October  we  sailed  for  Eramanga,  to  restore  the  remaining 
nine  Christian  refVigeee  to  their  own  island.  We  took  on  board  also  Daniela 
and  his  wife,  in  order  to  take  them  to  Fate,  their  own  conntrj. 

"  October  \Aith  (Tuesday). — Cast  anchor  in  Dillon's  Bay.  Eramanga,  like 
Tanna,  is  about  seventy  miles  in  circumference.  The  coast  round  this  island 
ia  much  Eke  Mar6 — of  coral  formation ;  but  the  interior  is  very  different,  being 
Tolcanic,  and  consisting  of  mountain  ranges.  There  is  a  very  picturesque 
vallej,  leading  from  Dillon's  Bay  away  up  into  the  mountains,  and  a  good 
stream  of  water  runs  down  the  valley  into  the  sea.  No  reef  is  anywhere  to  be 
seal,  and  anchorage  can  be  found  only  close  in  shore.  As  soon  as  we  had 
east  anchor,  we  perceived  the  beach  to  be  unusually  thick  with  natives ;  at  the 
same  time  we  saw  natives  pouring  in  in  streams  from  all  directions.  Ever 
and  anon  as  they  emerged  from  some  thicket  which  overhung  their  path,  and 
came  in  si^^t  of  the  ship,  they  raised  tremendous  shouts  and  shook  their 
weapons,  as  if  they  were  deriding  us  who  brought  to  them  the  Gospel.  At 
length,  Mana  and  Joe,  two  Eramangan  evangelists,  who  had  been  trained 
at  Samoa^  who  stood  futhful  to  their  profession  and  assisted  Mr.  Gordon  to 
the  last,  came  off  in  a  canoe.  We  learnt  from  them  that  the  gathering  of  the 
natives  was  to  hold  their  great  annual  festival — ^the  verjf  identical  occasion  on 
which  Williams  and  Harris  landed  twenty-three  years  ago,  and  the  excitement 
of  which  led  to  their  cruel  murder !  Yes,  there  was  the  same  sandy  knoll, 
raised  up  by  the  running  stream  on  one  side  and  the  flowing  sea  on  the  other, 
down  which  Mr.  Williams  ran  into  the  sea.  There,  too,  blackening  that  spot, 
were  some  of  the  same  savages  who  blackened  it  with  their  dusky  bodies  on 
that  memorable  day,  and  who  assisted  both  in  killing  and  eating  the  man  of 
God !  Yes,  and  there  was  the  same  river  still  running  just  as  it  ran  then,  and 
there  was  the  same  sea  breaking  still  upon  the  beach,  as  it  broke  then,  red- 
dened with  Williams's  blood.  It  was  considered  rather  dangerous  for  us  to  ' 
risk  ourselves  ashore,  especially  as  Mr.  and  Mrs.  Gordon  had  been  murdered 
80  lately,  and  that  Williams  and  Harris  had  been  killed  under  preciBcly  the 
same  circumstances  as  those  now  transpiring  ashore.  Yet  we  thought  it  was 
our  duty  as  deputation  to  see  the  refugees  ashore,  and  also  to  walk  to  Mr. 
Henry's  sandal- wood  establishment,  toleam  something  of  the  state  of  thenatives. 
Hence  a  boat  was  lowered,  and,  having  landed  the  Eramangan  natives,  we 
proceeded  to  Mr.  Henry's  establishment.  As  we  passed  up,  many  of  the  savages 
forded  the  stream  to  gaze  at  us  (for  we  had  taken  the  precaution  to  land  on 
the  opposite  side  of  the  stream  from  that  on  which  Williams  and  Harris  were 
killed,  and  on  which  the  savages  were  congregated  in  such  immense  numbers). 
They  all  had  their  weapons,  and  it  appeared  to  us  that  we  were  not  in  a  very 
secure  position.  The  boat  backed  into  deep  water  as  soon  as  we  stepped  ashore, 
and  lay  off  to  await  our  return.  We  found  Mr.  Henry,  his  wife,  and  family^ 
well,  with  one  or  two  exceptions,  but  in  constant  dread  of  their  lives.  The 
revolver  in  the  belt  appeared  as  necessary  to  their  existence  as  the  air  which

that  ibe  nfttiFee  had  thraotoiad  to  kill  ihem  all  that  daj  or  MSwe  the  Umt 
closed,  hence  they  had  made  preparatiom.  Several  hundred  of  these  hlood- 
thirstj  savages  had  visited  their  premises  that  morning,  perhaps  with  the 
intent  to  feel  their  way  b^ore  th«y  stmok  the  blow.  While  we  were  there, 
some  thirty  or  forty  were  ronnd  iJie  doors  with  their  bows  and  arrows  and 
axes  f  and  ever  and  anon  deafening  shouts  arotmd,  enot^j^  under  the  excit- 
ing drcnmstances  of  the  day,  to  frighten  anybody.  Mr.  Henry  told  us  that 
he  thonght  a  Mission  might  be  re-established  on  that  side  of  the  river,  but  not 
on  the  opposite  side  where  Mr.  and  Mrs.  Gordon  were  kiUed.  Nevertheless, 
it  is  his  opinion,  and  we  coincide  with  him,  that  no  missionary  shoold  reside 
on  Eramanga  without  the  means  of  self-defence.  The  Eramangans  are  a 
cowardly  race,  and  generally  attack  persons  who  are  unarmed  or  are  unpre- 
pared to  resist.  But  they  are  so  habituated  to  murder,  that  to  be  unarmed 
is  a  powerful  incentive  to  crime  on  their  part. 

"  When  the  *  John  Williams  *  called  last  year,  Kaniani,  the  chief  who  killed 
Williams,  professed  to  the  deputation  great  sorrow  for  the  murder  of  Mr.  and 
Mrs.  Gordon;  but  now  all  pretty  well  understand  that  he  had  a  hand  in  it» 
for  th^  were  killed  on  his  territory,  and  it  is  impossible  for  a  person  under 
the  protection  of  any  chief  to  be  killed  without  his  leave ;  such  a  thing  would 
oaoae  a  war  and  great  disturbance,  but  the  murderous  party  have  not  even 
been  reprimanded ;  indeed,  we  find  Kaniam.  on  our  present  visit,  Uving  in  dose 
friendship  with  them«  and  unfriendly  with  those  young  men  who  were  attached 
to  Mr.  (Jordon,  and  who  are  now  trying  to  hold  their  ground  (five  in  number) 
against  all  their  heathen  brethreiL  The  seven  we  have  now  brought  from 
Aneitenm  will  augment  their  number  to  twelve ;  though  subsequently  two 
of  these  wished  to  proceed  to  Mar^  for  further  instructions,  henoe  t^i  only  will 
remain.  They  live  together  in  one  house  for  mutual  proteotion,  and  Mr.  Henry 
very  kindly  lends  them  muskets,  which,  no  doubt,  tends  veiy  much  to  their 
seonrity.  They  hold  Divine  worship  on  Sabbath,  and  seven  or  eight  heathens 
attend  their  instructions.  They  are  threatened  from  time  to  time,  but  the 
ohief  with  whom  they  live  is  friendly  to  them.  There  is  every  probability  that 
Mr.  Oopeland  wiU  attempt  to  recommence  the  Mission  here  neopt  spring.  We 
think  him  a  man  well  adapted  to  cope  with  the  peculiar  difficulties  connected 
with  the  work  on  this  island.    We  ^'cached  the  boat  in  safety. 

"  Having  completed  our  business,  we  weighed  anchor  and  stood  off  for  Mari, 

^  Tuesday,  October  I7th, — Beached  Mar^,  and  landed  at  Guwahma. 

''Eanraa,  a  Mangaian  teacher,  was  left  here,  as  there  is  some  probability  of 
an  opening  among  the  heathen.  During  our  short  absence^  many  have  come 
over  to  the  side  of  Christianity.  There  is  a  shaking  among  the  dry  bones 
which  have  lain  so  long  dry.  Still  the  heathen  rage ;  during  that  short  period 
three  have  been  killed  and  eaten.

before  snnset.  It  is  an  enchanting  place;  numbers  of  islets  diversify  and 
adorn  the  scene.  Uea  is  a  lagoon  iaiand;  but  in  many  parts  of  it  the  forma* 
ti<m  doedy  resembles  the  other  islands  of  the  LoyaUj  Group.  Forests  of

chiefs,  as  attendants.  They  are  a  very  fine  race  of  people,  of  a  light  colour, 
and  apparently  of  a  mild  disposition.  Their  houses,  canoes,  and  implements 
show  them  to  be  intellectually  superior  to  any  of  the  oiSier  natives  of  these 
islanda.  Many  of  their  canoes  were  rigged  out  as  schooners,  with  their  flags 
flying,  cutting  tihrough  the  water  with  great  velocity.  Apolo,  who  is  located

Till  near  midnight  we  were  engaged  in  listening  to  the  report  the  teachers  had 
to  give  us  of  their  troubles  occasioned  by  the  ill-treatment  and  Jesuitical 
conduct  of  the  PopiBh  priests. 

**  We  saw  the  young  chief,  but  we  were  entirely  at  a  loss  aa  to  what  to

not  occur.    The  priests  would  be  afraid  to  carry  things  so  fiur.    A  missionary 
is  needed  for  this  station  at  once. 

"Afterwards  we  received  presents  of  yegetables,  pigs,  and  poohry,  from 
the  six  stations  where  the  teachers  are  located.  The  spokesman  said, '  This 
present  is  collected  to  bid  a  welcome  to  the  missionarj  we  have  so  long  ex- 
pected. Where  is  heP  Yon  missionaries,"  he  continaed,  'have  fiuled  to

We  replied  that  we  were  equally  sorry  with  themselTes,  but  that  they  must 
exercise  their  patience  a  little  longer,  and  perhaps  the  next  time  the  missionarj 
ship  arriyed,  they  would  obtain  the  object  of  their  great  desire;  for  we  had 
written  to  the  Churches  in  England  many  urgent  letters,  and  we  though  they 
would  be  able  no  longer  to  withstand  the  appeals.

year  in  ll^s.  Jones's  boarding-school  on  Mar6.  We  now  restored  them  to  their 
homes,  where  we  hope  they  will  make  themselyes  useful  in  assisting  the 
teachers  to  instruct  their  fallow-countrymen.  We  had  many  yery  urgent 
applications  from  bright,  intdligent  youths,  to  return  with  us,  and  it  pained 
us  much  to  be  compelled  to  refuse  them ;  but  we  could  not  procure  them  a 
passage  in  our  missionary  ship."

LOYALTY  ISLANDS. 

Liru. 

Ik  this  populous  island  the  Word  of  the  Lord  has  free  course  and  is  glorified. 
The  labourers  are  indeed  few,  but  the  hanrest  is  great ;  and  we  can  only 
ascribe  it  to  the  special  power  and  grace  of  God  that,  with  a  European 
agency  so  limited  as  that  which  has  hitherto  occupied  the  island,  the  effects 
of  the  Oospel  haye  been  so  strikingly  manifest  and  so  widely  extended. 

The  last  Beport  from  the  Bsy.  S.  IICxcfaslahs  is  more  cheering  than  any 
we  haye  yet  receiyed ;  the  fierce  and  bitter  opposition  of  the  heathen  against 
the  Christian  conyerts  has,  to  a  great  extent,  been  oyeroome;  and  those  who 
once  sought  the  missionary's  lifb,  now  inyite  his  labours  and  regard  him  with 
respect  and  affection.  And  these  results  haye  been  accomplished,  notwith- 
standing the  actiye  and  determined  opposition  of  the  Catholic  missionaries  who 
are  located  on  the  island,  and  who  employ  their  usual  ingenuity,  sophistiy, 
and  misrepresentation  to  withstand  the  cause  of  truth.  We  are  glad  to  find 
that  our  missionary  Brethren  ayoid,  so  &r  as  they  are  able,  any  direct 
collision  with  these  propagators  of  error  and  superstition,  and  content  them- 
selyes  with  preaching  the  Oospel  of  the  blessed  God,  depending  on  the 
promised  grace  of  the  Holy  Spirit  to  apply  its  glorious  truths  to  the  hearts  of 
the  people. 

Mr.  Macferlane  reports  the  formation  of  an  Institution  on  lAfa  for  training 
27atiye  Teachers,  and  that  he  has  already  receiyed  twenty  candidates,  and 
commenced  his  labours  among  them.    It  has  been  mainly  by  native  agency 


FOB  JANUABT,   1864.  13 

tiiat  fhe  saccess  already  realized  has  been  efEeoted,  and  we  cannot  donbt  that 
the  extension  of  such  labonrs,  by  men  properly  instructed  and  prepared  as 
erangelistSy  KrilL  be  followed  by  corresponding  results. 

The  desire  of  the  people  for  the  blessings  of  education  is  growing  Both 
the  young  and  the  adult  manifest  a  thirst  for  knowledge  sanctified  by 
religion ;  and  when  teachers  are  found  in  sufficient  numbers  to  meet  this 
desire^  we  may  expect  a  rapid  extension  of  education  among  the  islanders* 
Their  advancement,  too,  in  the  habits  of  dyilized  life  is  truly  wonderful^ 
when  it  is  remembered  that  a  few  years  since,  and  but  a  few,  they  were 
unclothed,  bloodthirsty  savages,  delighting  in  murder,  and  revelling  in  the 
hoTTOiB  of  cannibalism.  Of  these  people  our  missionary  may  well  remark : — 
**  Eeally  it  is  a  perfect  riddle  to  me  how  and  from  what  source  these  natives 
get  sach  a  variety  of  good  and  appropriate  clothing.  It  cheered  our  hearts 
to  see  such  a  vast  assemblage  of  black  ^es,  drawn  together  to  hear  the  Word 
of  Qod,  and  contribute  their  mite  for  its  diffusion  among  their  heathen 
brethren.  They  sat  together,  neat  and  clean,  in  love,  peace,  and  order,  who 
had  formerly  been  enemies,  and  had  eaten  each  other's  Mends  and  relatives. 
Some  of  Ihem  made  spirited  and  appropriate  speeches,  drawing  the  contrast 
between  the  past  and  present,  to  which  their  countrymen  listened  with  the 
gieatest  attention," 

While  our  Brethren  in  the  South  Pacific  Islands  are  reaping  these  blessed 
lewardB  of  their  self-denying  zeal  and  love,  we  trust  that  the  Mends  of  the 
Society  at  home  will  *'  not  be  weary  in  well  doing,"  but  remain  '*  sted&st, 
immoveable,  always  abounding  in  the  work  of  the  Lord,  forasmuch  as  they 
know  that  their  labour  is  not  in  vain  in  the  Lord." 

THE  SHADOWS  OF  HEATHENISM  DISFEBSED  BY  THE  LIOHT  OF  THE  GOSPEL. 

**  Wide  Bay,  Lifii,  June  18, 1863. 
**  Bxv.  AND  DEAB  SiB, — OuT  May  Meetings  are  now  completed ;  we  held  them ' 
in  three  diiferent  parts  of  the  island  with  the  most  gratifying  results.  The 
aoBemhUeB  were  large  and  e^en  respectable.  Beally  it  is  a  perfect  riddle  to 
me  how  and  from  what  source  these  natives  get  such  a  variety  of  good  and 
apfwropriate  clothing.  It  cheered  our  hearts  to  see  such  a  vast  assemblage  of 
Uack  faces,  drawn  together  to  hear  the  Word  of  Qod,  and  contribute  their 
mite  for  ita  diffdsion  among  their  heathen  brethren.  They  sat  together,  neat 
and  dean,  in  love,  peace,  and  order,  who  had  formerly  been  enemies,  and  had 
eaten  each  other's  Mends  and  relativea.  Some  of  them  made  spirited  and 
afipropriate  speeches,  drawing  the  contrast  between  the  past  and  present,  to 
which  their  countrymen  listened  with  the  greatest  attention.  Nearly  all  the 
remaining  heathen  on  the  island  were  present,  and  were  exhorted  and  appealed 
to  most  pointedly  and  faithfully  by  their  black  Brethren.  The  collections 
were  also  a  decided  improvement  upon  last  year,  although  by  no  means  what 
we  desire  and  hope  to  attain.  They  amount  to  about  £40 — about  £15  in  cash, 
and  the  remainder  in  cocoa-nut  fibre.  Heathenism  on  the  island  is  fast 
becoming  a  thing  of  the  past.    The  professed  heathen  arenow  few  in  number,

large  island.  The  painted  heathen  and  beaded  papist  are  alike  arrested  and 
subdued.  A  remarkable  proof  of  this  occurred  some  time  ago,  when  the 
priests  desired  their  followers  to  openly  and  flagrantly  violate  the  Sabbath,  by 
practising  a  number  of  games  upon  that  sacred  day.  The  notivee,  however, 
relhsed  to  take  any  part  in  the  procoeding,  saying  they  were  afiraidto  do  such 
tUmga  upon  Qod*s  day.  The  afctempt  to  establish  the  gaanea  was  consequently 
abandoned.

"  The  priests  here  are  as  unwearied  as  ever  in  their  exertions,  although  lees 
noisy.  They  have  tried  to  storm  this  citadel,  and  have  failed  to  make  even  a 
breach ;  they  are  now  determined  to  undermine  it.  They  have  made  strenuous 
efforts  to  raise  to  undue  importance  the  names  of  '  Maliu '  and  '  Petelu,'  but 
the  natives  still  love  and  adhere  to  the  name  of  Ohrist,  and  do  not  appear  to 
fM  disposed  in  the  lightest  degree  to  desert  the  '  Bock  of  Ages.'  There^  has 
been  great  ckunour  about  the  utOxty  and  snperionty  of  crosses,  images,  and 
pictures  to  convey  truths  to  the  native  mind ;  but  our  pec^ie  are  growing^ 
awdoos  to  possess  the  Hving  llf  ord.  It  is  amusiBg  to  sea  how  oonfssed  the

counts  his  beads,  the  other  takes  his  *'  Matins,"  reads,  exhorts^  and  prays. 
These  people  are  passionately  fond  of  books,  to  the  great  annoyance  of  the 
priests,  who  evidently  'love  darkness  rather  than  light,'  and  consider  'ignorance 
the  mother  of  devotion.*  The  power  and  adaptation  of  God's  Word  to  win  the 
heart,  subdue  tbe  pasaiiAB,  sad  enlighten  the  understanding,  is  remarkably 
illustrated  in  these  natives.  Hie  paiests  would  have  them  undervalne  and 
discard  the  saored  vcfaune,  and  leave  their  semis  and  minds  in  Uieir  hands ;

quently,  instead  of  gaining  ground,  they  are  lonng  it ;  they  are  fanning,  not 
extinguishing  the  natives'  desire  to  possess  and  becosM  aoqfoainted  with  i^ 
Word  of  God.  This  people,  although  vastly  inlerior  in  many  respeets  to  Hke 
noble  Bereans,  are  neverthelsss  like  them,  in  their  desurs  to  search  t^ 
Seriptures  Auly,  to  see  whether  ihe/se  things  are  so.  It  is  eoHsee^fin^

''It  is  a  remarkable  fact  that  wherever  there  has  been  a  chia&  or  an 
in^ortant  person,  who  has  opposed  the  priests  on  New  Caledonia  or  the 
Ide  of  Pines,  they  have  been  most  inveterate  enemies  to  the  French  GoTem> 
ment,  and  guilty  of  the  foulest  crimes  (at  least  have  been  represented  as  such 
by  the  priests) ;  for  which  they  have  either  been  shot,  or  sent  as  conyicts  to 
Tahiti  I  am  told  that  almost  every  chief  on  the  Isleof  Pines  has  disappeared, 
in  order  to  subdue  the  natives,  and  lead  them  into  the  arms  of  the  mother 
chmreh.  They  have  endeavoured  to  misrepresent  the  conduct  of  the  natives 
on  this  island  and  those  of  Ilea,  to  the  captain  a  of  French  men-of-war  which 
called  here;  but  I  am  happy  to  state  that  I  have  be^i  able  to  counteract 
their  influence,  by  placing  matters  in  their  proper  light.  I  have  hitherto 
found  Fren^  officers  hononrable  and  upright  men,  who  ISoel  Httle  disposed  to 
receive  the  statements  and  carry  out  the  designs  of  these  priests,  feddng  nn- 
Aofabtedlj  that  they  are  unable  to  render  them  the  assistance  they  solicit 
without  the  grossest  ij\justica  The  strug^  here  will  doubtless  be  severe 
and  protracted,  but  we  have  nothing  to  fear.  The  Truth  at  times  maj  be 
enveloped  in  amoke,  and  her  voice  loet  in  the  clamour  of  the  ignorant  and 
prejudiced ;  but  the  vapour  will  pass  away,  and  renreal  her  standing  erect  in

'*  The  priests  have  now  changed  their  point  of  attack.  Thej  no  longer  dwell 
upon  the  differences  between  Roman  CatholidBm  and  Protestantism,  but^ 
upon  the  points  of  similitude,  which  are  greatly  magnified  by  them.  The 
storming,  I  guess,  is  over.  Now  comes  the  persevering,  noiseless,  oft-tried 
scheme  of  sapping  the  foundation.  They  are  now  telling  the  natives  that 
the  two  religions  are  much  the  same,  but  that  theirs  is  infiniteljr  more  easy, 
and  better  adapted  to  them. 

*' '  They,'  said  the  priest  to  a  man  the  other  day, '  urge  you  to  abstain  from 
smoking ;  we  allow  and  encourage  you  to  smoke.  They  require  you  strictl  j 
to  observe  the  Sabbath ;  we  only  ask  you  to  observe  a  part  of  it.  Th^  forbid 
the  continuation  of  a  number  of  your  heathen  games;  our  religion  does  not 
restrain  you  from  such  things.  Why  not  worship  with  usP'  I  confess 
that  this  sort  of  reasoning  has  secured  for  them  a  number  of  unprincipled 
fellows,  from  the  ranks  of  the  heathen,  who  were  ashamed  of  their  name,  yet 
unwilling  to  abandon  their  habits  and  lead  a  better  life ;  they  therefore  call 
themselves  Boman  Catholics,  but  continue  as  before.  Some  of  them  have 
been  known  to  take  from  their  necks  the  image  of  the  Virgin  Mary,  and 
hang  it  up  with  its  ficu^  to  the  wall,  saying,  *  You  stay  there ;  I  am  just  goin^ 
to  see  another  person,  but  I  shall  come  back  to  you  by-and-by.' 

*'  The  priests  are  now  earnestly  soliciting  the  aid  of  the  secular  arm.  We 
have  b^een  expecting  the  Gk>vemor  here  during  the  last*  ten  months ;  but  it  is 
my  firm  conviction  that  His  Excellency  purpoedy  avoids  calling  here.  I 
tmderstand  he  is  a  much  more  liberal  man  than  the  former  one.  However, 
we  are  not  content  with  the  abililj  to  retain  our  position  merely,  but  we  are 
anxious,  and  determined,  if  possible,  to  gain  ground. 

THB  PBIESTS  DOMnTAKT  ON  NEW  CALEDONIA. 

"  There  is  the  large  and  important  island  of  New  Caledonia,  within  a  day's 
sail  from  us,  sunk  in  the  grossest  ignorance  and  idolatry,  with  no  other 
instructors  and  g^des  but  Popish  priests,  who  will  only  lead  the  natives  out 
of  one  maze  into  another.  Messengers  have  been  here  frx>m  one  of  the  tribes 
there,  requesting  us  to  send  them  teachers ;  but  what  can  we  do  at  present  P 
My  interview  with  the  late  Gk>vemor  upon  the  sulject  was  most  unsatisfeu^rj  ; 
he  promised  to  write  to  France,  making  known  our  request,  but  could  not 
give  us  any  hope  of  success  in  the  attempt  to  establish  a  Mission  upon  New 
Caledonia.  We  intend  repeating  our  request  to  the  new  Governor,  and  hope 
and  pray  for  success. 

INSTITUTION  AT  LIPU  FOB  TBAININO  NATIVE  PASTOBS. 

"  We  have  commenced  the  Institution  here  for  training  native  teachers  and 
pastors.  After  the  opening  service  and  feast,  I  assembled  the  Church-members 
to  consult  upon  the  subject  of  aiding  in  the  support  of  the  Institution.  Al- 
though from  the  unproductiveness  of  these  islands,  the  natives  cannot  be 
expected  to  do  much,  yet  I  consider  it  important  to  instil  into  their  minds 
the  principle  of  providing  for  their  own  institutions  and  teachers.  A  spirited^ 
and  somewhat  lengthy  discussion  took  place  amongst  the  members.  Some» 
in  the  ardour  of  zeal,  would  make  it  incumbent  upon  the  Church  to  undertake 
at  once  the  entire  support  of  the  Institution.    I  did  not  encourage  this  step. 


FOB  JANTJARY,    1864.  17 

as  I  knew  they  were  not  prepared  for  it.  After  a  number  of  plans  had  been 
proposed,  it  was  finally  arranged  that  each  Church-member  throughout  the 
island  should  give  three  large  yams%nnua]ly,  for  the  support  of  the  members 
of  the  Institution,  these  to  be  collected  during  the  days  of  harvest.  To  this 
arrangement  ihe  Church-members  hare  unanimously  agreed ;  and  although  at 
present  we  are  more  solicitous  about  the  principles  inculcated,  than  the 
azDonnt  given,  yet  as  there  are  over  a  thousand  members  on  the  island,  yon 
will  easily  perceive  that  the  yams  will  greatly  assist  in  defraying  the  expenses 
difhe  Institution. 

""  We  had  about  thirty  applicants  for  admission  to  the  Institution,  twenty 
of  whom  I  accepted ;  with  many  of  them  I  am  personally  acquainted,  and 
entertain  a  yery  favourable  opinion  of  their  capabilities.  Six  of  the  number 
are  from  my  young  men's  class,  the  others  from  different  parts  of  the  island. 
Judging  from  their  spai^ding  eyes,  and  well-formed  heads,  one  cannot  but 
feel,  with  Bishop  Patteeon,  that  they  are  capable  of  rising  very  high  in  the 
scale  of  civilization  and  intelligence.  In  my  opening  address,  I  spoke  to  the 
joong  men  most  plainly  and  faithfully,  of  the  dangers  they  would  probably 
We  to  encounter,  which  might  possibly  terminate  in  their  falling  by  the 
luffids  of  their  cruel  brethren ;  they  simply  replied, '  This  is  not  news  to  us ;  we 
We  already  thought  of,  and  talked  over  aUJthese  things ;  we  are  not  afraid ; 
we  do  not  care  for  our  bodies,  and  no  person  on  earth  can  injure  our  souls ;  if 
we  die  in  the  field,  we  die,  if  we  live,  we  live ;  eahune  a  nue  Jcoi  Jesu — ^we  leave 
it  with  Jesus.' 

"The  course  of  instruction  at  present  is  qtdte  elementary,  as  the  members  of 
tlie  Institution  have  hitherto  had  but  few  advantages ;  but  their  progress 
during  the  last  six  months  is  veiy  satisfactory  and  encouraging.  Sixteen  of 
their  number  are  married,  and  their  wives  are  under  the  care  and  tuition  of 
Mrs.  Macfarlane.  They  are  at  present  living  in  thatch  cottages  neatly  built, 
and  80  arranged  as  to  form  the  three  sides  of  a  square,  but  hope  soon  to  com- 
o^ce  erecting  lath  and  plaster  houses,  and  a  good  substantial  stone  building 
in  wbich  to  assemble  for  instruction. 

SCHOOLS  AND  CHUBGHES. 

"  I  feel  pleasure  in  being  able  to  report  favourably  of  our  schools.  On  Mon- 
eys we  have  a  general  school  for  all — ^men,  women,  and  children — indeed,  the 
^ole  population,  with  very  few^exceptions,  are  present  on  these  occajsions ; 
but  I  am  afraid  the  noise  is  greater  than  the  progress.  Our  day  schools  are 
^ell  attended  by  the  young,  and  to  these  we  chiefly  and  anxiously  look  j  they 
*w  generally  eager  to  acquire  knowledge,  and  show  a  decided  preference  for 
lessons  on  Scripture  history.  Many  young  men,  and  even  boys  of  fourteen, 
and  sixteen  years  of  age,  are  in  our  seekers'  classes,  and  a  number  of  the 
former  have  joined  the  Church  during  the  past  year. 

'*  Our  Churches  are  also  in  a  hopeful  condition,  increasing  in  number,  and  I 
trost  also  in  piety.  In  my  own  district  there  are  439  Church-members,  268 
seekers,  and  19  proposed  for  Church-fellowship.

Alihovoh  it  is  nearly  eight  years  since  Isaia  Pafehia  left  our  shores  to 
return  to  his  island  home,  we  arc  persuaded  that  he  still  lives  in  the  memory 
and  affection  of  multitudes,  who  will  be  glad  to  read  the  following  brief  but 
satisiactory  letter,  recently  received  by  his  father  in  Christ,  the  Rev.  William 
Gill,  of  Woolwich.  It  is  truly  delightful  to  find  that  his  visit  to  this 
country,  which  was  attended  with  many  and  great  advantages,  has  not,  as  in 
some  instances,  been  productive  of  corresponding  evils ;  but  that  he  has  con- 
tinued to  labour  with  modesty,  diligenoe,  and  perseverance,  in  the  service  of 
the  Saviour.  We  leam  from  other  sources  ihat  the  amiable  and  consistent 
character  of  our  young  friend  has  tended  to  confirm  and  to  commend  his 
Christian  teaching. 

We  have,  in  the  case  of  Isaia,  a  striking  o^nfirmation  of  the  prmnise : — 
"  Instead  of  thy  fothers  shall  be  thy  children."  He  now  fills  ihe  station 
formerly  occupied  by  his  friend  Mk.  Gill,  at  Aboeanoi,  and  guides  and 
instructs  his  countrymen  in  the  way  of  truth.  Isaia  also  tells  us,  in  the 
subjoined  letter,  that  his  venerable  Either  Fafshia  is  still  Irring ;  and  few  of 
our  readers  will  need  to  be  informed  that  this  good  m^,  moro  than  forty 
yean  since,  was  honoured  to  introduce  the  gospel  to  llA]iaT0K«A9cEe&  a  dark

he  swam  £x>m  the  vessel  to  the  shore,  not  counting  his  life  dear  to  him,  so 
that  be  might  make  known  to  the  imtutofred  and  degraded  people  the  glorious 
tidings  of  redeeming  love.  Great  has  been  his  reward  1  The  entire  population 
has  long  since  unbraced  Christianity,  and  more  than  one*third  of  the  adults 
aie  approved  members  of  the  Church  of  Christ.  Great  also  must  be  the  joy 
of  thifl  aged  veteran  in  beholding  his  son  labouring  in  the  same  blessed  cause, 
and  gathering  like  fruits  unto  eternal  life.

"  Arorangi,  Barotonga,  Auguet  17, 1863. 

"  Mt  bbab  Mb.  and  Mbs.  Gill, — Blessmg  on  you  both  from  God  by 
Jesos  the  Messiah.  Tour  letter  of  last  year  has  reached  me,  and  in  reading 
it  I  am  made  glad. 

"  I  am  still  at  Arorangi — ^your  station — doing  the  work  of  the  Gospel.  I 
dwell  in  your  house,  and  cease  not  to  pray  that  God  would  prosper  our  work. 

"  The  Church  here  is  in  peace,  and  is  growing  in  fruitfulness ;  some  few 
members  have  gone  back,  but  the  large  portion  remain  steadfast,  and  hold 
fast  to  the  Gospel  of  Christ.  I  am  now  the  only  teacher  here ;  my  former 
help-mate,  Rupe,  is  gone  to  Atiu,  and,  I  am  glad  to  say,  no  trouble  has  grown 
up  since  my  settlement  here. 

**  Hie  people  are  now  repairing  our  chapel ;  they  are  putting  on  an  entire 
new  roof,  and  it  will  take  some  six  months  before  the  work  is  complete. 

"  I  have  mentioned  to  Tinomana,  the  chief,  the  desire  of  those  merchants  in 
England  who  wish  to  come  here,  and  who  ask  if  we  woidd  trade  with  them. 
Bodi  Tinomana  and  the  people  are  willii^  they  should  come  as  merchants. 
They  may  trade  in  coffee,  cotton,  oil,  and  in  fruits ;  but  they  will  not  be  allowed 
to  purchase  land.  If  any  shoidd  come,  you  must  see  that  they  are  good  cha- 
racters, and  that  they  will  live  in  peace  among  the  people.  Upon  these  terms 
we  shall  be  glad  to  see  any  who  wish  to  come  to  us  with  merchandise. 

**  My  fpither,  Papehia,  is  stiU  alive,  so  is  my  mother ;  they  are  both  well. 
I  must  tell  you  I  am  truly  blessed  in  my  wife.  She  is  a  real  helpmeet 
for  me ;  a  woman  of  peace,  and  faith  in  the  Word  of  Grod.  We  have  two 
children,  a  boy  and  a  girl,  and  we  have  called  them  '  WiUiam'  and  *  Eliza- 
beth,* after  you  and  Mrs.  Gill ;  and  now  my  parents,  my  thoughts  of  affection 
are  constantly  going  out  towards  you,  asking  how  is  your  health,  and  whether 
or  not  you  will  ever  leave  England,  and  come  again  to  us. 

**  Many  of  our  people  have  died  since  you  left ;  almost  a  new  generation  has 
grown  up.  Makea,  the  chiers  son,  is  at  study  in  the  Institution ;  Tekao,  my 
brother,  has  finished  his  term  of  study,  and  is  here  waiting  his  appointment 
to  a  station.    Tuaine  is  dead. 

**  I  do  not  forget  my  many  friends  m  England — ^blessing  on  them  all.  Write 
often  to  me.    In  conclusion

"We  have  already  had  occasion  to  express  our  gratitude  to  our  fiiends  in  the 
several  Australian  Colonies  for  their  generous  and  affectionate  reception  of 
Dr.  TuBNEB  and  his  associates,  who  sojourned  with  them  for  a  season  on  their 
way  to  the  South  Pacific ;  but,  from  the  following  testimony  of  one  of  our 
junior  friends,  the  Rev.  Joseph  King,  we  cannot  deem  it  superflous  to  repeat 
the  expression  of  our  thankftdness.  Our  friends  in  Australia  may  feel  assured 
that  their  hospitality  and  affection  to  the  missionary,  and  their  zeal  and  libe- 
rality in  the  blessed  cause  to  which  his  life  is  consecrated,  can  in  no  wise 
lose  its  reward;  and  that  the  Churches  of  the  fatherland  gratefully  appreciate 
this  labour  of  love,  and  pray  that  they  may  be  yet  more  closely  united  with 
themselves  in  extending  the  blessings  of  the  common  salvation,  to  the 
unevangelized  multitudes  of  the  South  Pacific. 

"Sydney,  New  South  Wales,  September  21, 1863. 

"  My  deab  Sib, — ^Tou  have,  of  course,  already  heard  of  our  arrival  in 
Austiralia.  After  a  very  pleasant  passage  of  eighty -two  days,  from,  Plymouth, 
we  anchored  at  Melbourne  on  the  6th  of  June. 

"  "We  have  met  with  warm  receptions  from  the  Churches  in  Australia.  We 
have  been  heartily  welcomed,  and  hospitably  entertained,  wherever  we  have 
gone.  Many  of  the  Churches  have  held  tea-meetings,  to  welcome  us,  and 
wish  us  Qod  speed  in  our  work.  We  were  invited  to  one  last  week,  at  Wool- 
lahra,  a  suburb  of  Sydney.  The  building  in  which  it  was  held  was  tastefrillj 
decorated  with  flowers  and  evergreens.  At  one  end  of  the  church  was  tke 
motto,  *  Welcome  to  God's  servants,'  and  at  the  other,  *  Go,  and  may  God 
prosper  you.'  We  have  been  greatly  encouraged  and  cheered  by  these 
various  expressions  of  sympathy. 

**  We  have  held  missionary  services  and  meetings  in  nearly  all  the  principal 
towns  of  Australia  and  Tasmania.  We  have  preached  seventy-one  missionary 
sermons,  addressed  twenty-four  missionary  meetings,  besides  twelve  or  fourteen 
gatherings  of  Sabbath  school  children.  For  the  first  ten  weeks  we  made 
Melbourne  our  head-quarters ;  in  South  Australia — ^Adelaide ;  and  in  Tas- 
mania— Hobart  Town  and  Launceston.  Our  general  meeting  at  Melbourne, 
over  which  Sir  Henry  Barkley,  the  Governor  of  Victoria,  presided,  was  a 
very  enthusiastic  meeting.  Dr.  Turner  presented  His  Excellency  with  a 
copy  of  the  Samoan  Bible.  Increased  interest  has  been  excited  in  our 
meetings  by  the  accounts  of  the  nefarious  kidnapping  which  has  been 
going  on  in  the  islands.  The  colonies  have  been  very  prompt  in  expressing 
their  indignation  at  the  dastardly  traffic,  and  in  petitioning  the  English 
Government  to  interfere,  and  demand  reparation  from  the  Peruvians. 

"  While  in  Adelaide,  Dr.  Turner  and  I  addressed  on  the  Sabbath  afternoon 
between  twelve  and  fourteen  hundred  children,  from  different  schools.  At 
the  close  of  the  meeting,  which  consisted  almost  exclusively  of  children, 
£13  were  received ;  this  was  quite  independent  of  their  usual  weekly  sub- 
scriptions.

MADAGASCAR. 


Bt  the  last  Mauritius  mail  we  received  letters  from  the  capital  from  the  Eet. 
WnjJAH  Ellis^  and  several  of  our  missionary  Brethren.  These  communica- 
iions,  though  extended,  we  are  sure  will  be  read  by  our  friends  with  the 
deepest  interest  They  refer  not  only  to  direct  missionary  work  in  Aittaka- 
KAsrvo,  but  also  in  remote  districts;  while  they  contain  important  representa- 
tions of  collateral  branches  of  missionary  labour  in  the  schools,  by  the  press,  &c. 

During  the  last  three  months  intense  interest  has  been  felt  by  the  report  (for 
it  was  more  than  a  rumour),  that  KAT)AifA  11.  was  still  alive,  and  that  he 
would  be  shortly  restored  to  the  throne,  or  seeking  a  refuge  out  of  the  island. 
The  former  representation  was  made  repeatedly  and  very  extensively  in 
Madagascar,  both  in  the  capital  and  in  the  country ;  and  so  deep  was  the 
impression,  that,  either  from  interested  motives  or  strange  credulity,  multitudes 
among  the  tribes  remote  from  the  capital  rose  up  in  arms^  with  the  professed 
object  of  restoring  the  Xing  to  his  throne.  Our  missionaries,  without  excep- 
tion, for  several  months  utterly  discredited  this  report,  and,  for  the  greater 
part,  they  entertained  the  same  convictions  throughout.  Others,  however, 
were  at  length  induced  to  believe  that  the  King  was  still  alive,  and  parties,  in 
whose  truthfulness  and  integrity  they  had  unlimited  confidence,  assured  them 
that  they  were  holding  frequent  intercourse  with  the  deposed  monarch,  and 
that  he  might  be  expected  in  the  capital  within  a  few  days.  We  can  only 
conjecture  the  motives  by  which  these  Mse  witnesses  were  instigated,  as  we 
have  no  explanation  given  in  the  letters  of  our  correspondents.  But,  as  will  be 
seen  from  the  following  statement  of  our  venerable  friend  the  Rev*  "William 
£ixi8,  the  gross  fabrication  was  ultimately  exploded,  and  all  parties  con- 
earred  in  the  full  assurance  that  the  Sing's  life  was  actually  sacrificed  at  the 
time  of  the  revolution  in  May  last. 

" I  have  written  to  you  twice,"  observes  Mr.  E.,  "respecting  the  rumour 
of  the  late  Badaka,  who  was  first  reported  to  be  alive,  and  subsequently  to 
be  coming  to  the  capital.    I  am  deeply  grieved  that  I  mentioned  this

subject ;  but  the  King's  return  was  so  confidently  and  persistently  affirmed 
by  parties  in  circumstances  to  know,  and  with  so  many  matters  of  detail, 
that,  though  I  long,  even  for  months,  refused  it  credence,  I  could  not  resist 
the  evidence  any  longer,  and  cemmunicated  the  report  of  las  being  alive  to 
you,  and  more  recently  of  his  eicpected  return  to  the  capital.    I  hate  kovt 

SEASON   TO   BEUEVB   THAT   BOTH   THESE   KEPORTS  WERE  UTTERLY   UNFOUNDED -'' 

From  the  following  communications  it  will  be  seen  that  the  spirit  and 
tendency  of  the  present  Government,  as  well  as  the  personal  views  of  the 
Queen,  are  not  in  favour  of  Christianity.  N'evertheless,  there  has  been  no 
act  of  hostility  to  the  ITative  Christians;  and  the  principles  of  the  new  con- 
stitution, if  so  it  may  be  designated,  secure  full  religious  freedom  to  all  classes 
of  the  people.  The  increasing  numbers  and  influence  of  the  Christians  afford 
also  a  strong  groimd  for  hope  that  the  sovereign  and  her  Government  will 
respect  these  principles  of  religious  freedcmi,  if  not  from  conviction,  yet  from 
policy ;  and  we  trust  that,  by  the  progress  of  the  Mission  and  the  increase  of 
converts,  this  groxmd  of  hope  may  continue  to  be  strengthened  and  enlarged. 

The  chief  anxiety  felt  by  the  missionaries,  and  probably  by  the  Native 
Government,  arises  from  the  ill-judged  and  unconstitutional  treaty  made  by 
the  late  King  with  M.  Lambert,  which  the  present  Government  reftise  to 
ratify,  and,  indeed,  which  they  could  not  venture  to  adopt  without  provoking 
the  universal  hostility  of  the  people.  Wc  trust  that,  under  the  gracious  pro- 
vidence of  God,  the  imperial  Government  of  Prance  may  be  led  to  take  just 
views  of  the  case,  and  be  restramed  from  employing  armed  force  to  obtain 
possession  of  any  portion  of  the  Madagascar  territory — a  proceeding  which 
could  not  fail  to  bring  about  anarchy,  bloodshed,  and  desolation.

"  My  DBAS  Frienj>, — I  am  deairoiis,  if  poaaible,  to  give  the  Directoro,  as 
briefly  as  I  can,  my  own  views  as  to  the  course  of  action  which  it  is  best  to 
pursue,  as  these  views  are  shared,  I  believe,  by  all  the  Brethren  with  whom  I 
have  thus  far  been  associated. 

PLAITB  FOB  GBABtrALLT   EXTENDING   MISSIONARY   OPERATIONS   FROM   THE 
CAPITAX  TO  THE  PROVINCES. 

"  There  are  positions  more  or  less  remote  from  the  capital,  especially  in 
the  South,  which  we  could  occupy  as  soon  as  the  Brethren  are  qualified  to 
take  part  in  our  work;  but  I  see  no  reason  to  deviate  from  the  course  of  action 
which  we  have  hitherto  followed— viz.,  to  occupy  the  chief  positions  in  the 
oi^pital,  establish  ourselves  on  as  solid  a  basis  as  possible  in  those  positioziSt 
render  our  educational  establLahment  aaid  printing  department  as  eflfasicMt

Divine  Providence  may  indicate,  sending  forth  in  ihe  meantmie,  in  every 
promising  direction,  Native  labourers  as  pioneers  before  a  better  qualified 
evangelistic  agency  which  we  hope  will  follow.  The  most  important  element 
in  such  efficient  occupancy  of  the  capital  is  the  scriptural  organization 
and  working  of  our  City  Churches ;  and  this,  experience  shows  most  clearly,

cnmoi  be  done  by  Natire  pastors  alone;  and  at  present  it  seems  only 
Hkeby  to  be  accomplished  by  the  association  of  a  Enropean  Missionary 
with  Natrre  Ohuroh  officers,  i^  Enropean  presiding,  assisted  by  co-pastors, 
deaoc»iB,  and  evangelists  or  preachers.  Thoti^  we  are  often  surprised 
and  delighted  with  the  simple  scriptoral  course  which  the  Native  preachers 
p^xrsue,  we  are  as  often  sarprised  and  grieved  at  the  want  of  clear  peroepticm 
of  what  to  ns  is  equally  pl^n,  and  the  want  of  principle  or  moral  courage 
to  carry  it  out  if  percdved.  In  many  difficult  cases  arising  out  of  old 
habits  of  social  life,  concubinage,  change  of  wives,  and  questions  in  which 
those  above  them  are  concerned,  it  seems  impossible  for  them  to  act  consist- 
ently if  left  to  themselves.  The  despotism  under  which  they  have  lived  has 
been  so  absolute,  i^e  favour  and  approval  of  the  great  in  every  movement  is 
eonBidered  so  necessary  and  beneficial,  and  their  disapproval  is  deemed  so 
calamitous,  that,  if  left  to  Native  pastors,  our  churches  would,  we  fear,  soon 
come  to  be  conducted  on  worldly  principles.  We  are  sometimes  startled 
to  see  men  who  would  have  drunk  the  poison  or  knelt  before  the  spear 
rather  than  promise  not  to  read  the  Scriptures  or  pray,  hesitate  whether 
it  is  right  to  pray  at  any  other  time  than  the  regularly-observed  seasons, 
without  first  obtaining  the  approval  of  the  government.  And,  perhaps,  on 
questions  of  discipline  many  would,  if  by  themselves,  decline  to  vote,  or 
decline  to  vote  according  to  what  they  could  not  doubt  was  the  teaching  of 
the  New  Teotament,  if  they  thought  such  vote  would  be  displeasing  to  their 
superiors ;  but,  associated  with  one  of  ourselves,  they  have  less  difficulty,  and 
they  know  it  will  be  considered  that  in  their  church  proceedings  they  only 
follow  where  wje  lead.  On  these  and  other  grounds  we  feel  that  if  we  are  to 
retain  the  capital  in  the  interest  of  Scriptural  Protestant  faith,  the  chief  city 
churches  must,  for  a  season,  have  our  special  care.  We  cannot  act  effectively 
upon  the  provinces  without  preserving  the  capital,  but  with  that  we  can 
operate  with  vastly  augmented  effect.  We  can  do  a  great  deal  of  good  besides 
freddmg  in  the  churches,  but  we  must  not  neglect  them.  European  preaching, 
as  well  am  ruling,  must  also,  in  regard  to  its  subject-matter,  impressiveness, 
Ac^  rsise  the  Native  preaching.  It  will  be  loaig  before  the  best  European 
preachers  will,  if  ever,  equal  the  Natives  in  the  command  of  the  Malagasy 
kogoage;  but,  as  the  understaading  <^  the  people  becomes  more  eoH^tened* 
and  their  minds  more  eoEercised  on  religious  subjects,  the  preaching  m:ust  be 
of  a  higher  order,  and  become  more  impressive,  or  lose  its  proper  influence. 
Public  speaking  is  much  practised  in  Madagascar,  and  oratory  sometimes 
exercises  great  power  over  large  multitudes;  and  even  now  among  the 
Ohristians  the  largest  congregations  are  gathered  where  the  ministers  are  the 
best  preachers.  These  are  some  of  the  grounds  why  we  think  our  brethren 
ean  at  present  best  serve  ike  cause  of  Christ  in  Madagascar  by  taking  charge, 
in  conjunction  with  Native  pastors,  of  two  important  churches  in  the  capitcd, 
one  of  which  is  formed,  and  the  other  will  be  as  soon  as  the  building  for  its 
wor^p  is  completed.

80  since  my  arrival.  Recent  changes  for  a  very  short  time  interfered  with 
the  regularity  of  attendance  on  our  public  services ;  but  there  have  been  for 
some  time  past  regpilar  and  apparently  maturely  considered  accessions  to  our 
numbers  from  among  the  unbelievers  and  the  heathen.  The  personal  cha.- 
racters  of  the  sovereign  and  the  chief  minister  are  not  unexceptionable;  but 
the  former,  though  openly  and  uniformly  patronizing  the  idols,  and  regu- 
lating almost  every  movement  of  her  life  by  the  directions  of  the  Diviners,  has 
encouraged,  but  never  hindered,  attendance  on  religious  worship  and  instruc- 
tion to  any  of  her  people  who  are  Christians.  The  latter,  and  the  members 
of  his  family  in  the  government,  have  steadily  contended  for  the  continuance 
of  perfect  religious  liberty.  We  therefore  see  no  impediment  to  the  continued 
spread  of  the  Gospel  from  this  source,  nor  from  anything  among  the  people, 
more  than  is  to  be  found  in  every  community  in  a  corresponding  social  and 
religious  condition.

"  I  feel  assured  that  the  Directors  will  take  means  to  be  correctly  informed 
of  the  probable  issue  of  any  conference  or  agreement  that  may  take  place 
between  the  French  and  English  governments  in  referenced  to  Madagascar ; 
and  that,  whatever  our  government  may  consent  to,  they  will  secure  the  pro- 
tection on  the  part  of  the  French  of  the  persons  and  property  of  the  mission- 
aries, as  well  as  other  English  subjects  in  Madagascar.  Under  this  assurance 
I  believe  we  should  all  deem  it  our  duty  to  continue  with,  if  possible,  increased 
effort  our  great  work,  even  to  the  building  of  Memorial  Churches ;  but,  as 
Mr.  Sibree  has  not  arrived,  and  you  have  suspended  these  operations,  all  is

"  My  name  may  possibly  be  brought  forward  in  connection  with  the  pro- 
ceedings of  the  French,  as  having  counselled  the  course  which  the  Hovas  have 
taken  in  refusing  the  claims  of  M.  Lambert ;  for  I  have  heard  that  some  of  the 
French  officers  have  said  that  they  think  I  am  even  employed  by  the  English 
government  to  oppose  their  treaty.  I  need  not  say  that  this  is  utterly  untrue. 
I  do  not  at  present  know  exactly  what  the  so  called  concessions  include.  I  was 
present,  at  the  King's  request,  when  the  document  was  read,  before  being  signed; 
but  considering  that  it  was  a  sort  of  private  transaction  between  Badama 
and  M.  Lambert,  a  transaction  about  which  I  could  have  nothing  to  say,  I  did 
not  attend  to  its  contents,  and  I  have  never  since,  though  often  asked,  given 
an  opinion,  but  always  said  they  must  consider  about  that  themselvee; 
excepting  on  one  occasion,  when  the  King  asked  my  opinion  about  the  coinage, 
I  said  that  all  sovereigns,  so  far  as  I  knew,  kept  the  coinage  of  the  countries 
over  which  they  ruled  in  their  own  hands.  In  regard  to  the  treaty  with  the 
emperor,  I  do  not  recollect  the  terms  of  that  treaty ;  and  on  one  occasion,  when 
strongly  pressed  for  my  opinion,  said,  *  If  there  is  nothing  very  objectionable 
in  that  treaty,  I  would  suggest  to  you  the  desirableness  of  your  adopting  it 
at  once  as  it  is ;  but,  if  there  is  anything  very  objectionable,  ask  if  it  can  be 
changed.'  I  am  clear  of  having  said  that  much,  when  pressed  for  an  opinion, 
but  have  never  said  more,  and  generally  have  declined  giving  any  opinion,  on

PB0GBES8  OF  THE   MISSION  SCHOOLS. 

"  The  Brethren  will  no  donbt  inform  you  of  the  progress  of  the  gospel  in 
their  several  spheres  of  labour,  which  I  am  thankful  to  say  is  in  all  encouraging, 
certainly  as  much  as  at  any  former  period  of  the  Mission.  Tou  are  aware  that 
besides  the  Central  Training  School,  under  the  care  of  Mr.  Stagg,  there  are 
schools  in  connection  with  most  of  the  principal  chapels.  Three  of  these  at 
the  present  time  contain  184  scholars,  while  between  140  and  150  receive 
instruction  in  the  Central  School.  "We  could  multiply  schools  in  the  villages 
if  we  had  teachers,  and  are  greatly  in  want  of  a  thoroughly  good,  industrious 
schoolmistress.  There  are  three  Sisters  of  Charity  here,  who  teach  well ;  and 
girls  of  high  family  go  to  them  who  would  come  to  us,  if  we  had  a  European 
mistress.  We  are  so  sensible  of  the  claims  of  education,  that  we  often  wish 
the  friends  would  add  to  our  present  staff  a  good  schoolmaster  and  mistress. 
We  could  find  as  many  additional  pupils  as  they  could  teach,  if  no  interruption 
to  the  present  current  of  feeling  in  favour  of  education  among  the  people 
should  occur.  ,

"We  are  greatly  pleased  with  the  present  of  books,  *The  Scriptures

to  thank  Mr.  Hardy  for  the  very  valuable  present,  and  to  obtain,  if  practicable, 
500  or  1000  copies  of  the  map  to  bind  up  with  our  Malagasy  edition. 

"  The  almanacks  have  safely  arrived,  and  we  are  preparing  to  publish  one  in

Tract  Society  would  kindly  make  us  a  grant  of  some  of  their  casts,  illustrative 
of  religious  and  educational  books.  They  would  not  only  render  our  books 
increasingly  attractive,  but  prove  valuable  mediums  of  instruction  to  the  minds 
of  the  Malagasy.

GENERAL  VIEW  OF  THE  STATE  AND  PROGRESS  OE  THE 
MADAGASCAR  MISSION. 

The  following  letter  of  the  Rev.  Robebt  Toy  gives  the  result  of  a  year's 
experience  of  missionary  life  in  Madagascar.  It  supplies,  on  the  whole,  a 
cheering  and  hopefiil  report  of  what  had  been  already  effected  by  the  Divine 
blessing  on  the  labours  of  our  Brethren,  notwithstanding  the  unlooked-for 
changes  and  painful  disappointments  with  which,  during  that  short  period, 
the  Mission  had  been  visited.    The  writer  fully  concurs  with  Mr.  Ellis  in

iiie  immediate  urgency  of  all  practicable  measoree  A)r  consolidating  the 
churches  in  the  capital  and  its  vicinity,  inasmuch  as  the  influence  of  the 
capital  upon  the  whole  island,  whether  for  good  or  evil,  is  most  powerfiil 
and  decisive.  In  these  views  the  Directors  thoroughly  concur,  and  they 
trust  that,  for  the  present,  the  strength  and  influence  of  the  entire  missionaiy 
body  will  be  concentrated  on  this  important  object. 

TBTE  ITATIVE  GOVERNMENT  AND  ITS  FOBEiaN  POLICY. 

"Antananarivo,  Oct.  9, 1863. 
"  Deab  Sie, — Since  writing  last,  the  country  has  quietly  settled  down  to 
order.  For  some  time  after  the  revolution  there  was,  as  might  be  expected, 
a  great  deal  of  excitement  and  uneasiness,  and  at  one  time  a  counter-revo- 
lution seemed  imminent.  A  report  that  the  King  was  only  partially  strangled, 
and  had  afterwards  recovered,  gained  considerable  credit,  not  only  among 
the  Hovas,  but  also  among  the  neighbouring  tribes,  and  several  risings  took 
place  in  consequence.  All  these,  however,  by  the  active  and  stringent  mea- 
sures of  the  government,  have  been  wholly  put  down,  and  the  whole  of  the 
tribes  have  returned  to  their  aUegiance.  Now,  however,  that  peace  is  fhlly 
restored  among  the  natives  themselves,  'a  new  danger  is  threatening  them 
ftom.  without.  The  French,  on  account  of  the  refusal  of  the  present  govern- 
ment to  acknowledge  the  Lambert  Treaty,  are — if  report  be  true — determined, 
it  would  appear,  to  make  a  ftesh  effort  to  obtain  possession  of  the  country. 
Under  these  circumstances,  and  independently  of  the  uncertainty  which  still 
exists  as  to  the  ultimate  intentions  of  the  present  sovereign  respecting  the 
liberty  now  extended  to  the  Christians,  it  seems  to  me  tha^t  it  would  be  most 
unwise  to  hasten  the  erection  of  the  proposed  *  Memorial  Churches.'  My  own 
feelSng  is,  that  only  one  should  be  built  for  the  present.  By  the  time  this  is 
completed,  you  will  be  in  a  far  better  position  than  is  now  possible  for 
deciding  what  future  course  to  adopt. 

THE  QUEEN,  THOUGH  AN  AVOWED  HEATHEN,  TOLERANT  OP  CHBI8TIANITT. 

'^  So  fkr  the  new  government,  though  essentially  heathen,  has  offered  no 
obstacles  to  the  spread  of  Christianity.  We  can,  however,  scarcely  believe 
that  the  Queen  is  very  favourable  to  the  progress  which  it  continues  to  make. 
She  seems  to  be  of  a  mild  and  humane  disposition,  but  thoroughly  super- 
stitious, and  a  Arm  believer  in  all  the  beliefs  and  customs  of  her  ancestors. 
The  Sikidy  and  the  Diviners  are  always  at  hand,  and  nothing  of  importance 
is  ever  transacted  without  their  being  previously  consulted.  Her  favourite 
idol  is  kept  in  the  palace  whilst  she  is  there  herself,  and  accompanies'  her 
when  she  goes  out.  Every  important  public  act  is  performed  either  on  a 
Thursday  or  Sunday,  the  only  two  lucky  days  in  the  week;  and,  as  the 
Diviners  have  to  choose  which  of  the  two  is  the  more  fortunate,  it  not  unfre- 
quently  happens  that  the  lot  falls  upon  the  Sunday.  Her  coronation  took 
place  on  the  Sunday,  and  occupied  nearly  the  whole  day.  On  the  return  of  the 
soldiers  and  officers  from  the  war  against  some  of  the  tribes  who  had  revolted, 
though  it  took  place  on  the  Friday,  they  were  not  permitted  to  enter  the  town 
till  the  Sunday :  and  occasionally  some  of  the  officers  are  prevented  from 
att^iding  at  the  different  churches  on  account  of  a  summons  to  attend  an 


FOR  VEBBXJAB.Y,  1864*  31 

important  kabary,  designedly  appointed  for  tliat  day.  Beyond  this,  however, 
I  am  not  aware  of  any  restriction  having  been  imposed  upon  any  of  the 
Chiistiaxia  since  her  accession  to  tlie  throne,  and  there  is  little  room  for  doubt 
but  that  the  hi^h  ofiBlcers  eiyoy  more  liberty  of  conscience  than  during  the 
latter  part  of  the  late  King's  reign. 

THE   CONQKEGATIOKS  AT  AITTANAKABIVO  AND  IN  THE  NEIGHBOtTBIKG 

YILLAOES. 

"AmnTTg  the  different  churches  in  the  town,  considerable  progress  has  been 
made  since  the  date  oi  my  last  letter.  The  average  attendance  is,  perhaps, 
mvch  ahont  the  same,  certainly  not  less,  while  the  number  of  candidates  for 
Chnrdi-feQowship  has  continued  steadily  to  increase.  Thechapds  all  continue 
to  be  w^  attended,  and  some  are  over-crowded.  The  country  churches,  how- 
erer,  have  sttfTered  severely  in  consequence  of  the  alarm  caused  by  the  late 
revolution ;  but  they  are,  for  the  most  part,  beginning  to  show  signs  of  im- 
provement. I  have  now  six  of  ^ose  churches  under  my  supervision.  Hiese 
arc  scattered  alxmt  in  the  villages  south  of  Antananarivo.  One  is  a  new  place, 
which  we  opened  a  fortnight  ago.  There  was  jjrcviously  a  flourishing  congre- 
gation, but  it  -was  scattered  during  the  persecution,  and  the  owner  of  the 
chapdl  pat  to  death.  All  these  are  supplied  with  preachers  from  the  same  or 
ndghbouring  villages,  aided  by  men  from  my  congregation  at  Ambohipotsy, 
some  of  whom  I  send  out  regularly  every  Sunday.  I  also  endeavour  to  vigdt 
one  of  Ihem  every  fortnight  or  three  weeks,  taking  them  in  rotation.  I  hope 
also  to  add,  in  a  short  time,  two  additional  churches  in  villages  which  are 
now  utterly  destitute,  although  several  Christians  are  living  in  the  neighbour- 
hood. I  am  anxious  to  get  schools  established  in  most  of  these  places,  but 
can  do  nothing  at  present  for  want  of  teachers. 

**  Biecently  some  natives  from  Ambohimanga  have  been  here  on  g^emment 
business,  who  state  that,  both  at  that  town  and  also  in  the  neighbouring  ones, 
there  are  several  Christians  who  are  greatly  in  want  of  instruction,  and  would 
be  glad  if  a  European  could  pay  them  a  visit.  This  is  not  the  Ambohimanga 
of  the  ancient  capital.  As  this  is  in  the  same  direction  as  the  district  I  have 
engaged  to  work,*  I  have  thought  it  would  be  advisable  to  undertake  the 
journey  next  autumn,  and  try  and  spend  a  few  weeks  in  getting  information 

respecting  them,  and  in  giving  them  all  the  instruction  in  my  power. 

MEETOraS  OF  COMMITTIE  AND   THE    PIUNTINa  OF  USEFUL   PUBLICATIONS. 

^  In  aceordanoe  with  a  resolution  passed  at  our  first  committee  meeting,  I 
now  send  you  a  brief  summary  of  our  proceedings  during  the  six  months  just 
elapsed.  During  this  time  we  have  met  six  times,  and  have  appointed  to  be 
published  by  Mr.  Parrett  1200  lesson  sheets ;  275  of  a  similar  size,  containing 
suitable  texts  of  Scripture,  and  500  containing  the  Ten  Commandments ;  1000 
children's  catechisms,  the  same  that  had  been  published  by  the  former  mis- 
sionaries ;  500  Russell's  Catechisms  in  16nio ;  also  a  small  work  recently  sent 
from  England,  entitled  *The  Scriptures  Analysed,'  when  the  ministerial 
Drethi'ea.  have  translated  it ;  and  an  English  Malagasy  Almanack  for  1864, 
coftaining,  beside  the  calendar  in  the  usual  form,  a  brief  chronological  histozy 
of  Maclagaflcar  {rom.  its  disooveiry,  including  the  arrival  of  the  first  mission- 
aiieSs  the  introduction  of  a  written  language,  and  the  establishment  of  a

the  different  ports  imd  their  present  governors— the  principal  markets — com- 
merce and  population — the  season  for  sowing  and  planting  ont  the  rice,  and 
other  information  likely  to  be  serviceable  to  the  natives.  One  special  meetings 
has  been  held  to  consider  the  advisability  of  establishing  a  general  conference 
of  the  ministers  and  representatives  of  the  different  churches  in  and  around 
Antananarivo,  to  be  held  at  stated  periods.  It  was,  however,  eventually 
decided  that  the  proper  time  for  the  successM  carrying  out  of  such  a  scheme 
had  not  yet  arrived,  and  that  all  that  it  was  at  present  advisable  to  attempt 
was  a  monthly  united  missionary  prayer  meeting,  to  be  held  in  rotation  at 
the  different  churches  in  the  town,  and  presided  over  by  one  of  the  mission- 
aries. Three  of  these  meetings  have  now  been  held,  all  of  which  have  been 
crowded  to  excess.  At  this  same  meeting  a  paper  was  read  by  Mr.  Stagg, 
entitled  "  Suggestions  respecting  the  Working  of  the  Missionary  School  and 
the  Education  of  Teachers,"  which  was  finally  adopted.  A  copy  of  this  paper 
he  has  probably  already  forwarded  to  you.  The  other  business  transacted  by 
the  committee  has  had  reference  to  the  settling  of  our  accounts  with  the

MIS8I0NAKY  VISIT  TO  VONEZONGO, 

A  DISTBICT  LYING  ON  THE  WESTEEN  BOBDEB  OF  THE  PBOVINCE  OP  IVEBINA. 

Although,  as  already  intimated,  our  missionaries  regard  the  capital  and 
its  environs  as  having  the  first  claim  upon  their  zeal  and  assiduity,  they  are 
glad  to  embrace  any  practicable  opportunity  of  examining  the  state  of  the 
people  in  remote  districts,  and  o^  doing  what  they  can  to  promote  their 
Christian  order  and  edification.  The  letter  of  the  Rev.  "W.  E.  Cousins  gives 
an  interesting  picture  of  society  in  Yonezongo,  and  especially  of  the  number 
of  Native  Christians  and  the  state  of  the  Churches.  The  visit  of  Mr.  C.  was 
that  of  the  first  European  missionary  who,  since  the  days  of  persecution,  had 
journeyed  to  that  distant  part  of  the  island,  and  the  Native  Christians  whom 
he  found  there  were  those  who  had  learnt  the  faith  of  Christ  through  the 
lips  of  Evangelists  who  had  cither  fled  thither  for  refuge,  or  who  had  been 
doomed  to  slavery  by  the  persecuting  Government  of  Queen  Ranavalona. 
It  is  gratifying  thus  to  find  that  their  faith  in  Christ  was  dearer  to  them

either  than  their  liberty  or  eheir  lives,  and  that  they  are  now  enjoying  peace 
and  freedom  in  connection  with  their  Christian  principles  and  profession. 

"  Amparib^,  Antananarivo,  Sept.  14, 1863. 
"  Deab  Db.  Tidman, — ^Tonr  letter  of  July  27th  has  just  come  to  hand.  As 
you  reqaest  some  farther  particulars  as  to  my  missionary  work  since  my  last, 
I  will  take  this  opportunity  of  writing.  For  eleven  weeks  I  have  had  no 
chapel  to  preach  in.  Our  old  one  was  so  wretched,  and  so  much  inclined  to 
fell  of  itscdf,  that  the  congregation  determined  to  pull  it  down,  buy  the  ground, 
and  build  a  more  substantial  edifice.  For  eleven  Sundays,  therefore,  I  have 
been  a  wanderer,  and  have  had  an  opportunity  of  seeing  the  state  of  some  of 
the  Tillage  churches.  On  the  whole,  there  is  much  to  encourage  us ;  but  the 
churches  out  of  town  cannot,  I  think,  be  considered  in  a  very  flourishing  state. 
There  is  quiet  and  steady  perseverance,  and  we  may  hope  to  see  much  better 
things.  1  will  not  enter  into  details  as  to  all  the  congregations  1  have  been 
enabled  to  visit,  but  will  content  myself  by  giving  some  account  of  what  I 
consider  the  most  important  visit — ^viz.,  that  to  Yonezongo. 

VISIT  TO  VONEZONGO. 

"  Vonezongo  is,  as  you  are  most  likely  aware,  the  most  westerly  of  the  six 
districts  into  which  Imerina  is  divided.  Between  it  and  AvaraddLno,  in  which 
the  capital  is  situated,  is  the  district  of  Marovitana;  and  beyond  it,  to  the 
west,  is  a  wilderness,  leading  on  to  the  Sakalava  coxmtry.  In  the  reign  of 
Eadama  I.  schools  were  established,  and  the  seeds  of  Christian  truth  scattered 
hy  oar  hononred  predecessors.  The  seed  sown  has  sprung  up.  Although  the 
persecution  reached  to  Yonezongo,  as  it  did  also  to  places  much  further  away, 
and  although  Yonezongo  had  its  share  of  martyrs,  still  those  who  loved  Gk>d's 
Word  must  have  had  better  opportunities  of  reading  and  teaching  it,  than  the 
inhabitants  of  Antananarivo  and  its  immediate  vicinity.  I  had  determined 
on  Tisiting  this  place  before  the  death  of  Badama.  The  state  of  affairs  con- 
sequent upon  that  sad  event,  and  the  unsettled  state  of  the  country  to  the 
^est,  led  me  to  delay  for  a  time.  When  I  thought  the  country  was  sufficiently 
quiet,  I  fdlfilled  my  determination,  much  to  my  own  pleasure,  and  1  trust  to 
the  profit  of  those  I  visited. 

DrCIDENTS  OP  THE  JOUBNET,  AND    COBDIAL   RECEPTION   BY  THE    PEOPLE. 

"  On  Friday,  Sept.  4th,  I  started.  Of  course  the  mode  of  travelling  was  in 
the  palanq[uin — ^the  only  one  practicable  to  those  who  do  not  ride.  I  was 
disappointed  in  not  reaching  the  end  of  my  journey  on  Friday.  I  slept  in  a 
small  village  situated  in  the  district  of  Marovatana.  I  was  reminded  of  my 
jonmey  from  Tamatave  last  year.  The  house  in  which  I  stayed  was  very 
primitive — no  European  influences  had  disturbed  its  arrangements.  The 
walls  and  roof  were  black  with  soot.  When  cooking  commenced,  we  had  the 
luxury  of  smoke ;  and  when  I  tried  to  sleep,  I  was  disturbed  by  the  pigs  and 
geese  in  the  south-east  comer  of  the  house.  The  floor  was  so  hard,  and  the 
fleas  80  numerous,  that  I  found  no  difficulty  in  waking  before  sunrise.  We 
renewed  our  journey,  and  reached  Fihaonana  about  nine  o'clock.  My  recep- 
^  was  very  gratifying.  After  breakfast,  in  the  house  chosen  for  my 
Accommodation — a  great  improvement  on  the  one  above  mentioned — ^I  was 

c  3 


34  MISSIONABT  MA6AZINB     . 

Ibrmally  welcomed  by  the  head  of  the  congregatioiiB  already  present.  The 
chief  speaker  was  Bazaka — a  man  who,  when  sent  by  the  Prince  Bakoto  to 
see  who  the  French  Missionaries  on  the  west  coast  were,  and  what  they  were 
doing — ^was  captured  by  some  Sakalava,  by  them  sold  to  the  French,  and  by 
the  latter  taken  to  the  Malagasy  establishment  at  Bonrbon.  He  and  his  five 
companions  proved  too  firm  Protestants  to  be  captivated  by  Bomish  cere- 
momes,  and  after  a  time  found  their  way  back  to  their  native  land.  His 
remarks  somewhat  startled  me,  for  he  said, '  Ton,  Yazaha,  are  partial ;  you 
think  of  what  vnH  be  for  the  good  of  Antananarivo,  but  yon  forget  us.*  I 
told  them  to  take  my  visit  as  an  assurance  that  we  did  not  forget  them,  and 
reminded  them  that  even  if  we  had  visited  them  earlier  we  could  not  have 
held  profitable  intercourse.  *  Well,'  he  said,  *  it  is  our  earnest  desire  to  be 
taught,  which  makes  us  speak  so.  During  the  persecution  many  of  us  shed 
tears  in  secret,  wishing  for  some  friend  from  over  the  seas ;  and  now  we  w?e 
better  off  than  we  were  then,  for  we  can  go  into  Antananarivo  if  there  is  any- 
thing very  difficult  we  want  advice  about.'  I  assured  him  we  would  think  of 
them,  and  do  what  we  coidd  to  get  them  taught.  For  the  rest  of  the  daj, 
small  groups  of  friends  from  distant  villages  came  in  to  shake  hands ;  and 
about  two  or  three  we  had  a  meeting  for  conversation,  and  asking  or  answering 
questions.  Many  were  the  questions  they  put  to  me — some  about  texts  which 
perplexed  them,  and  some  about  what  should  be  done  in  regard  to  admission 
of  church  members,  discipline,  &c.  After  sunset  we  had  another  such  meeting. 

A  BLIPPT  aiBBATH. 

*'  Sunday,  I  had  a  walk  in  the  cool  of  the  morning  before  the  services,  which. 
begasi  about  eight.  The  ordinary  house  of  meeting  was  too  small,  so  we 
removed  to  a  larger  one  in  a  village  about  a  mile  away.  I  think  nearly  250 
must  have  been  preeeat  at  our  services,  which,  with  a  break  of  two  hours  in 
the  middle  of  the  day,  lasted  till  four.  About  one  hundred  joined  in  com- 
memorating the  dying  love  of  Him  who  gave  his  life  a  ransom  for  many.  It 
was  a  happy  day  for  us  alL  The  preaching  was  solid,  dear,  and  veiy  practical. 
I>uring  the  mid-day  interval,  those  who  were  stiQ  unable  to  read  remained  to 
be  taught.  Sunday  evening  I  had  another  meting  for  conversation  and 
questions.  Monday  morning,  before  I  was  dressed,  I  had  more  questions, 
and  tin  night  I  was  kept  talking.  They  excused  themselves  by  saying  they 
were  *  thirsty.*    Monday  evening  we  had  a  service  for  preaching. 

STATE   OP  EILIGIOUS  KKOWLEDGB  AMONG  THE  PEOPLE. 

"  My  intercourse  with  the  people  has  left  a  {^easing  impression  on  my  mind. 
There  is  a  steadiness  and  caution,  together  with  an  earnestness  and  knowledge 
of  God's  Word,  which  is  very  encouraging.  Many  of  the  questions  asked 
showed  pleasing  signs  of  intelligence.  I  was  asked,  *  Why,  if  Christ  and  the 
Holy  Spirit  are  both  God,  can  sin  against  Christ  be  more  easily  forgiven  tiban 
sin  against  the  Holy  Ghost  P*  *  K  the  Samaritans  were  not  Jews,  how  could 
the  woman  of  John  iv.  say,  "  Our  father  Jaoob  ?" '  Others  showed  want  of 
information,  as  this,  *  Were  the  distinctions  between  French  and  English  tibe 
same  in  the  days  c^  the  prophets  as  they  are  now  P'  They  have  one  difficult 
ca^e  of  church  discipline.  A  man,  who  has  long  been  a  professed  Christian, 
and  who  has  been  very  diligent  in  visiting  the  sick,  caring  for  the  poor,  and 


FOE  PEBRUAJRY,    1864.  35 

other  CQhiisidaii  daties,  has  takexL  two  wives,  in  addition  to  his  first.  '  We 
lure  followed  the  direction  of  Ciuiftt,'  said  the  pastor,  who  told  me.  '  We 
apoke  to  him  priyately ;  then  two  or  three  went  to  him ;  after  that  we  admo- 
lUBhed  him  hefore  the  oongregatLon — ^what  remains  for  us  but  to  separate 
from  hijfi.  ?'  The  case  is  rendered  more  difficfolt  by  the  &ct  that  the  wives 
knre  become  Christians,  and  are  desirous  of  being  admitted  into  church  pri* 
Tifeges.  They  hare  joined  in  seeking  to  induce  the  maa  to  ohoose  one,  and 
aDow  the  remaining  two  to  separate.  I  advised  them  to  suspend  the  man  for 
a  seaaoii — ^hoping  and  praying  that  he  may  be  led  to  change  his  course. 

STATISTICS  OP  THE  DISTRICT. 

••  On  Tuesday  morning,  at  five,  I  left  Fihaonana,  and  reached  home  about 
fiyur,  having  had  eleven  hours  of  the  sun.  I  gathered  some  particulars  as  to 
the  inmib«r  of  Christians  in  the  district  of  Yonezongo,  which  are  suflici^it  to 
make  ns  anxious  to  do  something  fbr  them.  The  population  is  not  great,  and 
very  scattered.  The  number  of  Christians  is  rather  more  than  600.  fHiere 
afe  three  leading  churches,  in  connection  with  which  Baptism  and  the  Lord's 
Siqiper  ajre  administered.  The  smaller  churches  join  with  these  once  a  month. 
The  nnmber  of  Church  members  ii  122 ;  and  of  those  who  are  baptized,  but 
slall  not  loll  members,  18.  Our  predecessors,  under  Radama's  patr<mage» 
started  achools  at  six  villages;  at  five  of  which  there  are  still  congregations. 
Mr.  Griffiths  gave  six  Bibles  to  different  people  in  the  district.  Three  still 
roaain,  and  God  has  indeed  blessed  them.  We  thus  epter  into  other  men's 
laJboors,  and  reap  where  we  never  sowed.  May  Grod  still  spare  us  to  gather 
in  the  harvest,  and  sow  fresh  seed.  My  Church  at  Amparibe  had  hee^  scat- 
tered fbr  a  timd,  but  I  hope  we  shall  continue  to  enjoy  prosperity.

ESTABLISHMENT  OP  SCHOOLS,  AND  PROGBESS  OF 
EDITCATIOISr, 

Mb.  C.  H.  Stago,  the  writer  of  the  following  letter,  was  sent  out  by  flie 
Directors  with  the  special  view  tcv  estahhsh  schools,  traia  native  masters, 
tod,  in  every  other  praeticablfi  vay,  extend  education  among  the  juvenile 
dasses  of  Madagascar.  After  some  delay  he  informs  us  thai;  the  erection  of 
a  suitable  building  has  been  completed,  and  that  he  has  commenced  his  work 
with  tax  encouraging  number  of  pupils.  We  trust  also  that  his  exertions  to 
raise  up  and  qualify  a  goodly  band  of  native  schoolmasters  will  be  successftil. 
Nothing  short  of  this  will  meet  the  necessities  of  the  case,  or  give  any  sub- 
stantial promise  of  the  extension  of  the  native  schools. 

From  the  foregoing  communications  we  are  glad  also  to  learn  that  the 
Trhding  Press,  under  the  care  of  Mb.  John  Pabbexi,  is  rendering  good 
service  to  ihe  Mission ;  and  it  is  gratifying  to  find  that  the  people  are  ready 
to  pay  a  reasonable  amount  for  the  school-books,  and  other  publications,

36  MISSIONARY  MAGAZINE 

"  Antananariyo,  Oct.  4tli,  1863. 

**  Ret.  and  deab  Sir, — I  have  long  desired  to  write  ftdly  to  you  respect- 
ing our  edncational  operations,  but,  owing  to  circumstances  over  which  I  had 
no  control,  I  have  not,  till  within  the  past  two  or  three  months,  been  able 
ftdly  to  commence  the  work  allotted  to  me.  Previous  to  the  erection  of  the 
missionary  school,  I  did  what  I  could  to  ftirther  the  cause  of  education  by- 
visiting  some  of  the  existing  schools,  and  encouraging  as  far  as  possible  the 
native  teachers  in  their  pure  labour  of  love. 

"  I  will  now  give  you  such  an  outline  of  present  operations  as  may,  I  trust,  be 
alike  interesting  and  satisfactory  to  the  Directors  and  to  those  numerous  friends 
who  desire  the  progress  and  spread  of  education  here.  Although  we  have  but 
just  commenced,  there  is  much  to  encourage  us,  and,  with  God*s  blessing  on 
our  labours,  and  the  prayers  of  friends  at  home,  we  have  every  hope  that  the 
light  of  Divine  knowledge  will  yet  spread  far  and  wide  even  amongst  the 
present  generation. 

A  CLASS  OF  STITBENTS  IN  TRAINING  FOR  TEACHERS. 

"  Acting  in  accordance  with  the  wish  of  the  Directors,  it  has  been  our  aim 
to  select  a  few  young  men  of  Christian  character.  These  are  now  under  in- 
struction, and  I  have  every  hope  that  within  nine  months  they  will  be  ready 
to  go  to  such  village  stations  as  may  be  deemed  desirable.  Teachers  are 
wanted,  both  here  at  the  capital  and  in  every  town  where  congregations 
assemble.  When  our  missionary  Brethren  visit  the  out  districts,  the  usual 
cry  of  the  people  is  *  Send  us  teachers  for  otir  children,  and  come  often  to  us, 
or,  still  better,  come  altogether,  then  our  congregations  would  soon  increase.' 
Truly  the  harvest  is  ready.  Soon  after  Mr.EUis's  arrival,  he  succeeded  in  obtain- 
ing possession  of  part  of  the  land  occupied  previously  by  Mr.  Griffiths,  whose 
name  will  ever  live  in  the  aflfectionate  memory  of  all  classes  of  people  here. 
Though  he  has  passed  away,  the  fruit  of  his  labour  is  ever  with  us.  On  that 
land  we  have  had  erected  a  missionary  school  some  fifty-five  feet  by  twenty- 
six ;  it  is  a  good  large  room,  and  will  well  accommodate  200  children.  It  is  a 
wooden  building,  and  the  many  friends  who  have  visited  it  have  expressed 
themselves  well  pleased  with  it.  It  is  situated  in  a  good  part  of  the  capital^ 
and  within  an  easy  distance  of  the  houses  of  the  principal  inhabitants. 

MISSION  SCHOOLS  IN  FULL  OPERATION. 

"  Our  friends  generally  expressed  themselves  as  sure  that  the  school  would 
soon  be  ftdl.  I  feared  somewhat,  knowing  that  the  Catholics  were  trying  their 
utmost  to  get  all  the  children,  as  they  could  not  get  the  adults;  but  I  son 
happy  to  say  that  my  fears  were  groundless,  for  we  have  now  about  130 
children  in  daily  attendance,  and  have  ali*eady  entered  150  names  in  our  book. 
This  has  been  accomplished  without  any  pressure ;  we  merely  announced  to 
the  congregations  that  the  school  wotdd  be  opened  on  such  a  day.  "We  have 
also  in  connection  with  our  congregations  four  other  schools  in  operation. 

"  I  hope  at  some  ftiture  time  to  be  able  to  send  you  a  ftdl  account  of  the 
internal  working  of  the  school,  but  as  we  have  only  recently  commenced,  I 
cannot  say  much  respecting  the  progress  of  the  children.  I  have,  however, 
fall  confidence  that  they  may  be  educated  to  a  point  quite  equal  to  that 
attained  in  our  ordinary  day-schools  at  home.    I  find  them  very  obedient  and 


POR  FEBRTTAEY,    1864.  37 

wining  to  learn.  As  earlj  as  six  o'clock  in  the  morning  they  are  waiting  in 
the  road  to  be  let  into  school,  and  when  it  commences,  we  have  no  late  comers ; 
and  once  in  the  school,  they  very  reluctantly  leave  it.  This  eagerness  may 
partly  die  off,  but  we  belieYe  that  the  children,  as  a  whole,  are  anxious  to  know 
an  that  the^^Yazaha,  as  we  are  called,  are  able  to  teach  them.  They  are  never 
tired  of  asking  questions. 

"  In  reference  to  the  young  men  I  have  under  training,  I  am  generally  satis- 
fied with  their  progress,  but  I  am  not  able  to  do  all  I  would  desire,  for  after 
the  work  of  the  school  is  over,  which  lasts  in  the  morning  for  three  hours,  and 
the  same  in  the  afternoon,  neither  they  nor  myself  are  fitted  to  go  through  any 
veiy  lengthened  course  of  lessons.  Still  I  hope  that  the  real  practical  know- 
ledge they  acquire  by  working  daily  in  the  school,  and  such  lessons  and  hints 
as  I  am  enabled  to  give  them,  wiQ  fit  them  to  become  useful  teachers  in  the 
niunerous  towns  and  villages  which  surround  us. 

"  I  have  before  stated  that  we  have  other  schools  in  operation :  some  of  them 
are  very  weU  attended ;  these  are  taught  by  native  teachers,  with  valuable 
assistance  from  our  ministerial  Brethren.  I  may  also  state  that  in  connection 
with  the  Rev.  Messrs.  Cousin's,  Toy's,  and  Duffos's  congregation  in  the  capital 
there  are  very  good  Simday-schools.  Our  Brethren  have  great  hope  in  the 
fruit  that  may  spring  from  that  good  work.  It  will  bind  the  children  to  the 
House  of  the  Lord ;  and  may  we  not  trust  and  believe  that  they  will  be  num- 
^red  amongst  the  future  pillars  of  the  Church  in  Madagascar  P 

"There  is  one  other  matter  I  would  like  to  touch  upon  in  the  working  of 
onr  schools.  "We  have  made  a  charge  of  about  fourpence  per  month  for  each 
child,  but  at  the  same  time  making  a  reduction  where  there  are  two  or  three 
^  a  family.  I  have  some  fears  respecting  it.  The  principle  is  good;  we 
iigreed  to  it  in  Conunittee,  and  I  wiU  do  my  utmost  to  carry  it  out ;  but  I  fear 
the  people  are  not  sufficiently  prepared  for  it;  and  then,  we  must  remember 
the  Catholics  give  all  for  nothing.  I  find  no  trouble  in  the  selling  of  slates, 
<^P7-books,  &c.,  because  they  see  something  tangible  for  their  money. 

VISIONS  OP  THE  FUTURE. 

"The  question  often  arises  in  my  mind,  wiU  the  work  now  commenced  bo 
^owed  to  go  on  P  "We  believe  it  will ;  from  what  we  see  around  us,  and  the 
opinion  we  may  form  of  the  result  of  past  events,  we  are  led  to  the  conclusion 
that  protection  and  permission  wiU  long  be  granted  to  us.  The  Queen  makes 
^0  secret  of  the  fact  that  she  worships  the  idols.  At  the  same  time  she  gives 
Pcnnission  to  all  her  people  to  worship  whom  they  please.  They  use  this 
^iWty,  crowding  all  our  places  of  worship;  and  every  day  increases  the 
anmber  of  those  who  give  themselves  to  the  Lord.  I  know  our  ministerial 
Brethren  often  rgoice  as  they  see  the  fruit  of  their  labours  in  ten,  twenty,  or 
even  thirty,  who  come  forward  monthly  in  each  chapel  to  join  the  Lord's 
P^ple.  We  have  had  a  time  of  darkness,  hope  almost  fled,  but  the  Sun  of 
^hteousness  is  in  our  midst,  and  the  people  rejoice. 

"  The  Prime  Minister,  who  has  great  power  in  the  country,  is  friendly  with 
^  and  I  believe  thoroughly  understands  and  knows  that  the  progress  of 
^^iuistianity  will  be  the  only  means  whereby  real  advancement  may  be  made 
^ongst  the  people ;  but  we  must  not  shut  our  eyes  to  the  fact  that  there  are

THE  QUilEN'S  MAKHIAGE. 

"  I  don't  know  whether  you  have  heard  of  the  Baharaha  Mangina,  or  silent 
busineas,  as  it  may  be  termed.  At  first  it  was  not  generally  known ;  but  the 
fact  is  that  the  Prime  Minister  has  married  the  Queen,  or  the  Queen  the 
Prime  Minister ;  the  Prime  Minister  has  two  other  wives.  The  marriage  with 
the  Queen  is  not  liked  by  many,  and  it  is  not  thought  that  it  will  add  to  his 
power.  He  has  now  a];^>arently  unlimited  power,  and  all  appear  willing  to  do 
his  bidding ;  but  in  a  country  so  fond  of  plots,  it  is  not  likely  that  the  King's 
party  have  entirely  died  out.  It  will  take  some  time  before  friends  at  home 
will  have  entire  confidence  in  the  future  stability  of  the  present  Government; 
and  it  is  only  acting  wisely ;  for,  as  far  as  we  could  judge  twelve  months  ago, 
there  was  every  probability  of  Eadama'a  reign  lasting  many  years.

ARRIYAL  AT  THE  CAPITAL  OP  MESSRS.  KESSLER  AND  PBARSE. 

"Antananarivo,  October  9th,  186S. 

**  Mt  dbab  Sib, — ^Yon  will  be  glad  to  hear  that,  by  the  mercy  of  God,  we 
arrived  safe  and  well  at  the  capital  on  the  7th,  after  a  journey  of  nine  days. 
The  roods  from  Tama(tave  to  the  capital  are  not  only  bad,  bat  the  worst  that  I 
have  seen  ajiywhere,  and  for  Eoropeans  altogether  impassable.  At  our  last 
resting-place  we  were  met  by  our  Brethren  Duflhs,  Cousins,  and  Parrett,  and 
on  nearing  the  capital  a  number  of  Christians  came  to  meet  us,  followed  by 
Mr.  Stagg,  Mrs.  Davidson,  Mr.  EUis,  and  Mr.  Toy.  They  are  all  very  kind 
to  us,  and  it  is  quite  a  pleasure  again  to  have  intercourse  with  Christian  friends, 
alter  being  deprived  of  it  for  some  timew  Mr.  EUis  has  taken  a  house  lor  me 
at  Ankadibevava.  There  is  a  church  dose  to  it  which  he  wishes  me  to 
take  charge  of,  together  with  two  Native  Pastors.  From  what  I  can  see  now, 
it  is  necessary  that  all  the  churches  should  be  presided  over  by  European 
missionaries,  at  least  for  a  time,  until  a  body  of  Malagash  preadicrs  can  be 
trained  to  take  the  sole  charge  of  them.  There  is  a  large  fi^  here,  and  onr 
whole  force  must  be  concentrated  for  a  time  in  the  capital,  as  this  is  the  centre 
from  which  the  other  parts  may  aftanprards  be  supplied.  The  church  at  An- 
kadibevava consists  of  120  communicants,  and  500  hearers,  but  there  is  ro<Hn 
lor  more.    Let  us  hope  that  it  will  soon  be  filled. 

"  I  cannot  say  much  more  now.  Perhi^  next  month,  looking  round  a  little 
more,  I  may  be  able  to  give  a  statement  of  our  doings  and  prospects;  and  I 
shall  be  glad  to  hear  from  you,  and  have  fuller  instructicms  as  regards  the  in- 
tentions of  the  Directors  with  respect  to  Madagascar,  and  the  building  of  the 
stone  churches. 

**  At  Tamatave  I  met  Mr.  Pakenham,  the  English  consul.    He  was  very

kind  to  me  wlien  I  called  on  him,  which,  as  En^ish  subjects,  we  thought  it 
oar  duty  to  do.  He  wished  to  have  an  English  service,  and  I  preached  in  the 
momxag.  In  the  afternoon  I  baptized  ten  natives — ^three  children,  two  women, 
and  fiTe  men ;  and  ICr.  Pearse  married  a  Native  couple.  There  is  a  con- 
gregation at  Tamatave  of  about  200  people,  and  David  Johns  is  the  pastor. 

^  X  intend,  please  Crod,  to  go  down  to  Tamatave  in  May  to  bring  our  friends 
and  my  wife  and  child  up  from  Maiuitius,  as  it  is  impossible  for  them  to  get

CHXI8TIAN  8BTTLBMBKT  ON  FATE. 

*  Ootoi>er2%^  1862. — ^We  this  day  sailed  from  He  A,  and  steered  our  course 
for  Fate.  On  the  24th  we  cast  anchor  at  snnset  off  the  very  interesting  Chris- 
tian settlement  of  that  island.  Toma,  the  Rarotongan  teacher,  came  off  in  his 
canoe,  but  did  not  reach  the  ship  till  it  was  quite  dark.  He  and  his  wife  are 
well,  and  happy  in  their  work.  One  of  the  Aneiteum  teachers  has  died  during 
the  year  of  brain  fever,  and  Takoma,  a  Rarotongan  teacher,  of  the  malaria 
prevalent  on  the  island.  The  other  Aneiteum  teacher  is  laid  by  with  a  bad 
foot,  caused  l^  treading  on  a  poisoned  arrow.  We  left  Makore,  a  Mangaian 
teacho*,  here  to  assist  T<Mna  in  the  work ;  so  that  now  there  will  be  three 
teachers.  "We  appointed  also  Daniela,  lately  returned  from  Santo,  to  be  an 
aaststant-teacher.  We  learnt  that  the  word  of  €k>d  is  making  progress  among 
the  Christian  party,  but  that  no  heathens  have  jcaned  them ;  still  they  do  not 
molest  them  in  religious  engagements ;  indeed,  we  found  that  the  heathens 
looked  upon  them  with  some  degree  of  awe.  In  January  last,  a  hurricane  de- 
vastated the  island ;  not  a  building  remained  standing.  Toma's  house  and  the 
church  were  swept  away.  The  bread  fruit  trees  were  laid  low :  not  a  leaf  was 
anywhere  to  be  seen ;  but,  happily,  the  yams  and  other  roots  on  which  they 
chiefly  depended  for  subsistence,  were  uninjured.  In  a  short  time  the  Chris- 
tians had  pleuty,  but  the  whole  mass  of  heathens,  even  up  to  the  presait  time, 
are  suffering  from  scarcity  of  food.  The  cause  of  the  abundance  among  the 
Christians  is  twofold :  first,  they  are  more  industrious ;  secondly,  they  culti- 
vate a  variety  of  foreign  vegetables,  which  come  in  opportunely  when  any  dis- 
aster be&ls  the  native  crop.  The  heathens  are  very  superstitious  about  plant- 
ing any  new  kind  of  food,  fearing  that  it  will  produce  disease  and  death.  The 
CSiristians'  village  has  a  simple  code  of  laws,  which  Pomare,  their  intelligent- 
looking  chief,  administrates  with  great  vigour,  and  tSi^'^lsP^satisfaction  of  all

parties.    At  half-past  eight  p.m.  we  heard  the  constables'  gong  beating,  as  rn. 
Eastern  Polynesia. 

"  Saturday,  25th. — ^We  went  ashore,  and  were  much  pleased  with  the  neat 
premises  of  the  teacher.  They  have  a  little  bamboo  church  which  wiQ  hold  aboiifc 
a  hundred,  and  which  we  were  informed  is  well  filled  every  Sabbath.  The 
people  gave  a  present  of  food  to  the  ship,  consisting  of  pigs,  pumpkins,  yams, 
and  taro.  The  Church-members  made  their  first  contribution  to  the  Parent 
Society  this  year,  which  consisted  of  5*.  Qd.  in  cash,  and  280  pounds  of  arrow- 
root. This  is  a  move  in  the  right  direction.  A  church,  only  one  year  in 
existence,  and  just  emerging  from  heathenism  of  the  grossest  type,  conmiences 
at  once  to  send  contributions  to  the  Missionary  Society.  Ought  not  this 
little  circumstance  put  to  shame  most  of  our  Brethren  at  home,  who  have  en- 
joyed the  accumulated  blessings  of  the  Gospel  all  their  lives,  and  yet  never  do 
half  of  what  these  semi-heathens  do  for  the  spread  of  the  Gospel,  the  blessing 
of  which  they  have  scarcely  tasted?  This  contribution  was  handed  over  to  the 
Presbyterian  Brethren  of  the  New  Hebrides,  as  they  have  undertaken  the  evan- 
gelization of  Fate.  "We  examined  twenty-three  candidates  for  Church-fellow- 
ship,  and  selected  ten  (fotir  men  and  six  women),  for  admission  to  the  Church 
on  the  morrow — Sabbath.  Toma,  the  teacher,  has  written  out  a  few  hymns, 
and  has  commenced  a  catechism  for  the  use  of  the  people.  '  These  attempts 
are  doubtless  very  imperfect,  but  without  European  missionaries  it  is  all  that 
can  be  expected.  They  have  no  translation  of  any  portion  of  Scripture,  hence 
the  Barotongan  Bible  is  used  in  public  service,  which  the  natives,  of  course, 
cannot  understand,  except  one  or  two  individuals  who  have  learnt  a  little  of 
that  language. 

"  Sabbath. — We  held  our  usual  service  on  board  this  morning.  In  the  after- 
noon we  went  ashore ;  Mr.  Gill  preached  in  the  Barotongan  dialect,  which 
Toma  translated.  Mr.  Jones  baptized  the  ten  natives  selected  yesterday. 
After  further  devotional  services  they  received  the  right  hand  of  fellowship. 
With  deep  thankfulness  we  all  united  in  partaking  of  Uie  Lord's  Supper.  The 
church  on  Fate  now  numbers  forty-two ;  may  the  grace  and  strength  of  Grod 
be  with  them,  that  they  may  remain  faithful  to  the  end ! 

"Monday  morning. — ^A deputation  firom  the  Church,  headed  by  the  chief, came 
off  in  canoes  to  reiterate  the  request  for  a  missionary.  They  said,  *  We  have, 
on  several  visits  of  the  "  John  Williams,"  been  promised  a  missionary,  but 
still  he  was  not  forthcoming.'  We  replied,  *  We  are  delighted  at  your  earnest- 
ness to  have  a  servant  of  Gk)d  in  your  midst,  but  you  must  wait  patiently,  as 
other  islands  have  to  do.'  *  Oh,  yes,  we  may  wait,'  said  some,  *  but  before  he 
comes  many  of  us  may  be  dead.'  '  But  what  can  we  do  ?  Missionaries  are  so 
scarce.  There  are  so  few  young  men  in  the  Church  of  Christ  who  are  willing 
to  leave  their  homes  and  come  out  to  a  barbarous  heathen  country  like  yours.' 
On  hearing  this,  the  chief,  Pomare,  at  once  volunteered  to  proceed  forthwith 
to  England,  in  search  of  a  missionary,  feeling  assured  that  if  he  could  lay  his 
claim  before  any  one  of  our  young  ministerial  Brethren,  he  would  not  fail  to 
secure  a  pastor  at  once  for  his  people.  We  dissuaded  him  from  thinking  of 
so  long  and  perilous  a  journey,  and  endeavoured  to  show  him  that  a  missionaiy 
would  arrive  sooner  by  our  writing  for  one,  than  by  his  going  personally. 
Some  of  the  party,  directing  their  attention  to  Mr.  Vivian,  a  young  missionary 


FOB  FEBRUAKY,    1864.  41 

pTM^eeding  to  HuaMne,  said, '  Why  can  we  not  have  this  missionary  to  stay 
▼ith  us?*  *  Oil,'  we  replied, '  he  has  been  appointed  to  another  sphere,  and  can- 
not stay  with  you.'  *  Oh,  let  us  take  him  by  force,"  said  some,  *  while  we  have 
the  opportunity/  Mr.  Jones  asked  them  if  it  would  be  proper  for  a  man  to 
take  a  case  of  goods  addressed  to  a  neighbour  and  appropriate  it  to  his  own 
use.  '  Oil,  no,'  they  replied, '  that  would  be  a  theft,  and  very  wrong.'  *  Would 
70a,  then,  be  thieves,'  he  asked, '  by  taking  this  missionary  who  has  been  sent 
labelled  to  another  people  and  another  island  P'  After  this  they  thought  no 
more  of  it,  and  so  Mr.  Vivian  escaped  being  tied  hand  and  foot  and  lowered 
into  a  canoe. 

"Monday,  27th. — ^About  midday  we  set  sail  for  Apee.  As  we  sailed  along  the 
coast  of  Fate,  we  were  amazed  at  the  extent  and  apparent  fertility  of  the  island. 
KumcroTis  islands  lie  off  its  shores,  of  considerable  extent,  which  are  doubtless 
inhabited. 

Early  on  Tuesday  morning  we  found  ourselves  sailing  through  a  vast 
Archipelago,  all  inhabited  by  heathens  and  cannibals  of  the  worst  class. 

f  VOLCANO  ON  THE  ISLAND  OF  AMBBTM . 

"  Oct.  30th  (Thursday). — We  were  off  Ambrym,  every  one  on  board  gazing  at 
the  active  volcano  which  exists  on  this  island.  The  column  of  smoke  arising 
therefrom  is  as  black  as  that  of  a  steamer's  chimney,  and  so  immense  in 
quantity,  that  it  blackens  the  whole  heavens  around,  and  fills  the  whole  hori- 
wn  to  leeward,  as  far  as  the  eye  can  reach,  with  heavy  masses  of  thunder-like 
donds.  The  mountains  all  around  are  covered  with  ashes  to  such  an  extent, 
that  not  a  single  leaf  of  vegetation  is  anywhere  to  be  seen.  This  volcano  is  ap- 
parently of  later  date  than  the  one  in  Tanna,  which  is  much  smaller,  and  the 
smoke  indicates  exhaustion  of  combustible  materials, — ^though  the  eruptions  of 
fire  are  much  more  frequent,  being  seen  at  intervals  of  only  a  few  minutes,  while 
the  eruption  of  fire  on  Ambrym  was  only  seen  once  during  the  night  in  which  we 
lay  off  that  place.  "We  learnt  from  the  two  Ambrym  youths,  who  "had  spent 
twelve  months  at  Mar^,  in  Mrs.  Jones's  school,  and  who  could  speak  that  lan- 
guage pretty  well,  that  the  volcano  is  very  difficult  of  access,  the  path  veay  nar- 
row, with  a  precipice  on  either  side,  and  that  only  a  few  old  people  on  the  island 
had  ever  visited  it. 

TWO  YOUNO  NATIVES  EBSTOEED  TO  THEIR  HOME  BY  THE  MISSIONARY 
SHIP:  ENTHUSIASTIC  RECEPTION. 

"  About  three  o'clock  in  the  afternoon  we  were  off  the  stK)t  fin^m  whence  the 
two  young  men,  Louis  and  Brabatmasing,  were  taken  by  the  *  John  WHliams,' 
last  year.  Brabatmasing  had  been  very  ill  during  his  irtiay  on  Mar^,  and 
fears  were  entertained  that  he  would  never  see  his  home  again.  Prayers 
were  offered  to  God  on  his  behalf,  that  he  might  be  restored  to  his  home, 
lest  his  death  while  with  us  should  produce  unfavourable  impressions 
and  feelings  on  his  superstitious  countrymen  towards  the  missionaries  and 
missionary  ship,  and  thus,  perhaps,  frustrate  our  designs  and  plans  for  the 
introduction  of  the  Gospel  among  them.  But  God  most  graciously  heard  om* 
prayers,  and  it  was  with  feelings  of  devout  thankfulness  we  prepared  to  take 
the  boys  ashore  to  their  friends,  safe  and  in  good  health.  It  must  be  re- 
membered that  these  two  lads  were  in  all  probability  the  first  who  ever  left 
their  homes,  and  after  ^6;^  had  volunteered  to  go  with  Captain  "Williams,  they 


42  MISSIONARY  HA6AZUIS 

soon  repaited,  and  wept  mncli  to  return ;  however,  it  was  thought  adviaaUe 
to  keep  them  to  their  first  ^ogagemeait,  which,  bj  the  way,  was  made  axdj  by 
signs  out  on  the  open  sea,  and  hence  not  very  well  understood.  Their  Mends 
on  that  occasion  paddled  after  them  with  the  hope  of  recovering  their  stolen, 
brethren  (as  they  supposed),  but  were  soon  left  behind.  They  would  conclude, 
therefore,  that  the  boys  were  lost  and  would  never  return,  that  the  white  man 
on  the  floating  islands  (sh^Ms)  had  cooked  and  eaten  them.  The  lads  dressed 
themselves  up  in  a  complete  suit  of  English  clothing,  except  shoes  and 
stoddngs,  and  advised  us  to  take  them  a8h(»«  lor  the  night,  leaving  their 
few  chattels  behind  till  morrow,  so  that  during  the  night  they  would  com- 
nmnicate  our  desire  to  form  a  Mission  station  there,  and  in  the  morning  they 
would  come  and  inform  us  of  the  result,  and  take  their  things.  We  pulled  in 
to  the  shore,  but  kept  outside  the  reef.  We  found  the  natives  swimming  off 
without  arms,  showing  that  they  had  confidence  in  the  white  man.  However, 
they  kept  a  short  distance  away,  indicating  a  little  mistrust.  Mr.  Jones  now  ad- 
vised one  of  the  youths  to  stand  up  in  the  boat,  and  speak  to  the  men  swimming 
about.  He  spoke  in  his  native  tongue,  and  the  surprise  indicated  on  their 
countenances,  at  being  addressed  in  their  own  language  by  strangers,  was 
very  great ;  they  all  appeared  paralyzed  with  wander.  *  Tell  them  who  you 
are,'  we  suggested ;  which  being  done,  such  a  scene  followed  as  our  tongues 
would  fail  to  tdl,  or  pen  describe,  it  must  be  seen  to  be  realized.  The  peo- 
ple appeared  mad  with  joy ;  they  shouted  to  those  on  shore,  splashed  and 
dashed  about  in  the  water  in  all  sorts  of  ways ;  now  adesperate  rush  was  made 
by  those  on  shore,  and  the  sea  all  round  the  boat  soon  became  thick  with 
human  heads,  shouting  and  rejoicing.  StiLL  they  hardly  knew  whether  they 
might  approadb  the  boat  or  not,  until  they  were  assured  by  their  newly  ar- 
rived countrymen  that  the  white  num  was  a  very  harmless  sort  of  creature. 
Whereupon  the  boat  became  filled  with  those  naked  barbarians,  leaping, 
stamping,  jumping,  vociferating  most  deafeningly ;  others,  unable  to  find  stand- 
ing room  in  the  bcMAt,  clung  around  the  gunwales,  almost  endangering  its  safety. 
When  we  offered  to  shake  hands,  they  looked  at  our  empty  extended  hands 
most  ludicrously,' until  informed  of  our  object  by  their  two  friends,  when  we 
had  more  shaking  of  the  hands  than  we  had  anticipated.  One  man  constantly 
waved  a  branch  of  the  ti  with  its  tuft  of  leaves,  loudly  vociferating.  We 
learnt  that  this  branch  carried  in  the  hand  by  the  natives  is  a  sign  of  peace- 
fdl  intentions  (the  Ambrym  olive  branch).  They  urged  us  to  go  ashore,  but 
being  now  late,  and  the  vessel  far  oS,  we  put  our  two  friends  on  a  canoe,  and 
sent  them  ashore,  while  we  returned  to  the  ships,  filled  with  joy  and  grati- 
tude to  the  God  and  Father  of  our  Lord  Jesus  Christ,  who  for  His  beloved 
Son's  sake  had  given  us  so  cheering  an  interview  with  these  wild  savages. 

CORDIAL  RELATIONS  ESTABLISHED  BETWEEN  THE  SAVAGES  OF  AMBRYM 
AND  THEIR  MISSIONARY  VISITORS. 

*'  Oct.  31st  (Friday). — Brabatmaw'ng  came  off  early  in  the  morning  with  some 
of  his  friends,  to  fetch  his  things  and  to  look  at  the  wonders  to  be  seen  on 
board,  among  which  were  the  ladies  and  children — our  clothes,  our  beards 
shaven  so  closely,  and  the  hand  pumps  for  drinking  out  of  the  casks.  After 
breakfast  we  took  them  ashore  in  the  boat,  together  with  their  chest  of  clothes, 


FOa  FEBEUABY,   1864.  48 

turkeys,  fowls,  a  pig,  and  OBefol  plants  and  seeds,  which  Mr..  Jones  had  sap- 
^ied  them  with,  for  the  benefit  and  improvement  of  their  people  and  island. 
O&e  of  ns  searching  in  the  pocket  for  a  handkerchief,  found  it  adorning  the 
head  of  one  of  the  chie&  as  a  head-dress,  as  if  it  belonged  to  him,  and  no  one 
dbe.  Th^  all  seemed  to  think  thej  had  a  right  to  take  from  -qb  what  they 
ODold  find,  and  did  not  C(m8ider  it  in  the  light  of  thieving,  for  they  made  no 
attempt  to  oonoeal  what  they  took. 

"  When  we  reached  the  shore,  one  of  the  chiefe,  thfnkJTig  we  hesitated  to 
itep  on  shore,  roshed  forward  and  placed  in  Captain  Williams's  hand  a  branch  of 
the  it,  as  a  pledge  of  friendship.  Mr.  Jones  jumped  npon  the  back  of  one  of 
the  naked  fellows,  and  was  carried  throngh  the  surf  to  the  beach.  Mr.  Gill 
and  Captain  Williams  followed.  We  were  evidently  the  first  white  men  who 
had  landed  here,  for  we  were  no  sooner  set  down  upon  our  legs  tiian  the  more 
courageous  began  to  examine  us  from  head  to  foot.  Many  seemed  to  think 
that  they  had  achieved  a  wonderful  feat  when  they  had  touched  the  white 
^in  of  our  hands,  for  they  ran  away  as  though  they  had  touched  a  serpent. 
One  expressed  great  astonishment  on  discovering  that  some  of  us  wore  four 
skins,  viz.,  coat,  waistcoat,  shirt,  and  flannel.  They  felt  the  fleshy  part  of  our 
bodies,  much  as  a  butcher  does  a  beast  when  he  is  selecting  one  for  the 
filaoghter.  Our  pockets,  with  a  few  articles  of  hardware,  as  presents,  were 
discovered  by  the  feel,  and  it  was  perfectly  amusing  to  see  the  people  search 
for  the  way  to  them.  Mr.  Jones  soon  had  his  pockets  relieved  of  their  con- 
tents; and,  having  met  with  such  good  fortune,  they  tried  Mr.  CHIPs,  and  saved 
ns  the  trouble  of  distributing  them,  aa  we  had  intended.  They  did  not  value 
iih-hooka  or  knivee ;  they  did  not  appear  to  know  the  use  of  them.  Pieces 
of  gay  print,  or  stout  iron  hoops,  were  valued  most.  The  iron  hoops  they 
flborpen  down  into  axes,  and,  ladied  to  a  hooked  stick,  use  it  as  an  adze. 
This  is  a  great  article  of  commerce  between  them  and  the  people  of  Malicalo, 
i^io  get  it  from  sandal- wood  traders  for  yams  and  other  vegetables.  Mr. 
QSL  anmsed  them  much  by  showing  his  watch  and  allowing  them  to  listen  to 
its  ticking.  Captain  Williams  prudently  took  his  off  and  put  it  Q,way,  lest  it 
should  disappear  never  to  be  seen  again.  But  the  crowning  wonder  of  all 
was  Mr.  Jones  sitting  down  imder  the  shade  of  a  bread-fruit  tree,  taking  off  his 
shoe  and  stocking,  and  exhibiting  his  foot.  One  of  the  chiefis,  finding  that  we 
liked  the  milk  from  the  young  cocoa-nuts  as  a  beverage,  continued  to  deluge  us 
with  it  until  we  were*compelled  to  lay  it  down  on  the  ground,  to  show  that  we 
had  had  sufficient ;  stiU  he  would  break  open  more  nuts,  and  press  them  upon 
OS,  and  appeared  to  find  his  greatest  pleasure  in  seeing  us  drink. 

**  Loab  had  stayed  ashore  to  collect  a  present  of  vegetables  for  the  ship, 
hot  thinking  we  were  a  long  time  coming,  he  had  gone  to  the  ship  in  a  canoe 
Bearohing  lor  us.  We  obtained  four  young  men  willing  to  go  with  us  to  Mar§ 
to  be  instructed,  and  to  return  by  the  'John  Williams'  next  year.  We 
brought  two  teachers  with  their  wives  from  the  institution  at  Mar^,  with  a 
view  to  settle  here  and  form  a  Mission  station ;  but  the  answer  the  people 
gave  to  our  inquiry,  if  it  would  be  agreeable  to  land  them,  was,  that  it  was  very 
good  lor  us  to  wish  to  locate  teachers  among  them,  but  they  had  much  rather 
we  would  not,  as  they  were  very  much  afraid  of  the  clothes  we  all  wore ;  and 
thougji  we  repeated  the  request,  yet  we  found  that  their  minds  were  ftdly

made  up.  It  appears  to  be  the  case  very  generally,  that  wild  savages  of  Western 
Polynesia  entertain  very  peculiar  ideas  with  respect  to  clothing  when  first 
they  see  it.  One  great  point,  however,  is  gained.  We  have  secured  their 
good  will,  and  hav4  two  young  men  there  who  can  tell  them  many  things  whicb 
they  have  seen  and  heard  during  their  twelve  months  residence  on  Mar^ ;  and 
perhaps  when  the  *  John  Williams'  visits  them  in  1868,  they  may  have  thrown 
away  their  fears,  and  be  anxious  to  obtain  teachers.  If  not,  we  shall  be  still 
able  to  carry  away  youths  for  instruction,  and  they,  by  mixing  with  people 
who  are  somewhat  civilized,  will,  with  God*s  blessing,  remove  the  suspicions 
still  lingering  among  the  natives  of  this  fine  island. 

VAST  EXTENT  OF  THE  GROUPS  OP  WESTERN  POLYNESIA. 

"  We  steered  from  this  place  about  mid-day  for  Malicalo.  All  round  the 
whole  horizon  we  saw  large  and  lofty  islands.  What  an  extensive  field  for 
missionary  operations ;  for  at  present  all  are  living  in  the  grossest  darkness^ 
and  most  revolting  cruelties.  How  utterly  insignificant  do  the  groups  of 
Eastern  Polynesia  appear  in  comparison  with  these ! 

"  At  the  close  of  the  evening  we  were  close  up  to  Malicalo,  a  splendid  island, 
and  very  large.  Here  you  have  harbours,  rivers,  mountains,  and  forests. 
During  the  whole  night  we  were  ranning  by  its  side,  and  yet  in  the  morning  we 
had  not  passed  it.  It  would  have  been  very  desirable  to  have  held  communica- 
tions with  the  shore,  and  to  have  endeavoured  to  take  away  a  few  youths  if 
possible  for  instruction,  but  Captain  WiUiams  was  not  disposed  to  wait. 

ESPIRITU  SANTO,  A  FINE  FIELD  FOR  MISSIONARY  EFFORT. 

"  Saturday  evening,  November  1st. — We  dropped  anchor  in  a  fine  hay  on 
the  southern  part  of  Espiritu  Santo.  This  is  the  largest,  and  perhaps  most 
fertile,  of  all  the  islands  of  the  New  Hebrides,  and  the  source  of  almost  all  the 
sandal-wood,  which  is  collected  by  various  vessels  and  sent  to  China  annually. 
The  people  are,  and  ever  have  been,  very  docile  and  kind  to  strangers.  There 
is  nothing  whatever  to  be  feared  from  them ;  a  person  might  go  anywhere 
amongst  them  without  danger.  European  missionaries  should  settle  at  once. 
Teachers  can  do  nothing  here ;  the  sickly  nature  of  the  climate  forbids  it. 
Natives  are  much  more  susceptible  of  disease  than  Englishmen.  Two  Baxo- 
tongan  teachers  were  landed  here  last  year  by  Mr.  Murray ;  both  died,  and 
one  of  their  wives,  within  a  fortnight  of  their  landing.  Mr.  Murray  last  year 
took  away  three  youths  from  this  place,  and  left  them  in  the  care  of  Mr.  Creagh 
for  instruction.  We  now  restored  them  to  their  homes.  They  have  not 
learned  much  of  the  Mar^  language,  hence  were  not  of  much  use  as  interpreters 
to  their  relatives  and  fellow-countrymen.  One  of  them  learnt,  immediately  on 
our  arrival,  that  two  of  his  friends  had  been  killed  and  eaten  the  day  previous. 

"  Sabbath  (November  2nd). — Although  lying  at  anchor,  we  deemed  it  unad- 
visable  to  go  ashore,  for  two  reasons — first,  we  could  hold  no  service  with  the 
natives,  not  being  able  to  communicate  with  them ;  and,  secondly,  they  being 
accustomed  to  have  Englishmen  ashore  from  sandal-wood  vessels,  would  be 
unable  to  distinguish  between  our  object  and  theirs.  Hence  we  thought  that 
they  would  be  the  more  struck  with  our  spending  a  quiet  Sabbath  on  board, 
and  would  see  that  the  missionary  vessel  was  different  from  all  others.  Many 
of  the  natives  came  on  board  on  the  Sabbath  to  barter,  but  being  told  by 


FOB  FEBRUARY,    1864.  45 

dieir  feUow-countrymen  that  it  was  our  sacred  day,  they  quietly  laid  their 
commoditieB  aside,  and  stayed  on  board  all  day,  watching  with  great  interest 
our  religions  serrices. 

"Monday  (November  3rd). — We  proceeded  ashore  to  land  the  three  youths,  to 
Tiait  the  graves  of  our  poor  teachers,  and  to  present  the  chief,  under  whose 
care  ihej  were  placed,  and  who  behaved  very  kindly  to  them,  with  a  few 
osefol  articles  of  clothing  and  hardware.  The  chief  was  very  anxious  to 
assare  ns — ^by  signs — ^that  the  teachers  did  not  die  for  want  of  food ;  he  showed 
us  that  he  crammed  them  with  food,  but  th^  died  notwithstanding.  We 
observed  in  the  gardens  of  the  late  teachers  three  orange  trees,  and  a  pine- 
apple plant,  thriving  exceedingly  well.  The  luxuriance  of  the  wild  vegetation 
around  exceeds  all  we  have  before  witnessed.  We  would  £edn  have  gone 
farther,  and  visited  more  of  the  people,  but  we  were  compelled  to  be  exceed- 
ingly hurried  in  our  intercourse  with  them,  that  we  might  catch  the  boat 
which  brought  us  ashore,  as  the  Captain  had  given  orders  to  the  boat-steerer 
to  leave  us  behind,  if  we  were  not  back  by  the  time  he  hoisted  a  flag — a  signal 
between  the  two — as  he  should  heave  anchor  and  sail  at  that  signal,  and  we 
did  not  wish  to  be  left  without  any  means  of  making  ourselves  comfortable 
on  so  sickly  an  island  for  twelve  months ;  therefore  we  endeavoured  to  meet 
the  wishes  of  the  Captain.  Just  after  we  stepped  into  the  boat,  the  flag  ran 
up.  Our  whole  engagements  with  the  natives,  from  the  time  we  left  the  ship 
tin  we  returned,  occupied  just  two  hours.  The  same  day  we  sailed  away  for 
Lifd ;  head  wind,  and  very  strong.  We  succeeded  in  inducing  four  young 
men  to  accompany  us ;  two  to  Mar6,  and  two  to  the  Hervey  Group. 

"  We  reached  Lifu  on  Monday,  November  10th ;  found  Mr.  Sleigh  at  his 
station.  The  Captain  landed  his  goods  safely.  Wednesday,  November  12, 
we  sailed  for  Mar6,  and  reached  there  early  the  following  morning.  Messrs. 
HcFarlane  and  Sleigh  accompanied  us  to  attend  the  annual  meeting  of  mis- 
sioq^aries,  to  be  held  at  Mr.  Jones's  station.  We  found  Mrs.  Jones  seriously 
in,  which  was  a  sad  blow  to  her  husband  on  arriving  at  his  home.  We  sin- 
cerely hope  that  with  his  assistance,  and  the  blessing  of  God,  she  will  soon 
recover  her  usual  health.

DEATH  OF  REV.  ALEXANDER  IRVINE. 

Our  readers  wiU  remember  that  in  March,  1863,  Dk.  and  Mes.  Tueneb, 
accompanied  by  four  young  missionaries  and  their  respective  wives, 
amongst  whom  were  included  Mr.  and  Mes.  Ievinr,  left  this  country 
for  the  Australian  Colonies,  en  route  for  their  appointed  fields  of  labour 
in  the  islands  of  the  Pacific.  During  the  voyage  Mr.  Irvine  was  attacked 
by  a  painful  disorder  arising  from  local  injury  received  before  he  left 
England,  and  on  reaching  Melbourne  in  June  following,  he  was  compelled 
to  undergo  a  surgical  operation.  For  a  time  sanguine  hopes  were  entertained 
that  he  would  be  sufficiently  convalescent  to  accompany  his  missionary  Brethren 


46  MISSION AHT   MAQA2XKB 

to  the  islands ;  and,  with  that  view,  he  and  Mrs.  Irvine  proceeded  to  Sydney 
in  order  to  take  their  passage  in  the  "  John  Williams."  But  in  this  they 
were  disappointed ;  and  after  the  ship  had  left  for  the  islands  the  dear  patient 
became  gradually  worse,  suffering  at  times  excruciating  pain ;  and,  in  one  of 
the  paroxysms  of  the  disorder,  his  happy  spirit  sunk  peacefully  to  rest  Our 
beloved  Brother's  death  occurred  at  Sydney  on  the  23rd  October,  ult. ;  and, 
after  announcing  the  event,  the  Eev.  A.  Buzacott  writes : — 

"  Mr.  Irvine  was  buried  the  day  after,  viz.,  the  evening  of  the  24th.  The 
Rev.  W.  Mclntire,  who,  with  Mrs.  Mclntire,  had  shown  him  much  kindness 
during  his  illness,  gave  au  address  at  our  house  previous  to  the  removal  of 
the  corpse.  A  goodly  number  of  ministers  and  gentlemen  followed  him  to 
the  grave,  where  the  Rev.  Mr.  Johnson  gave  a  very  suitable  address.  His 
youthful  and  lovely  widow  has  excited  much  sympathy — that  just  as  they  were 
about  to  realize  the  object  of  their  devout  wishes  and  prayers,  the  Master 
interposes  and  says  :  *  It  is  well  that  it  was  in  thine  heart,'  and  the  will  is 
accepted  and  rewarded  just  as  if  the  deed  were  done. 

"  Our  dear  departed  Brother  was  throughout  in  a  delightful  state  of  mind. 
He  was  always,  when  strength  allowed,  ready  to  converse  on  heavenly  things, 
and  frequently  his  countenance  brightened  with  the  prospect.  Had  it  been 
the  Master's  will,  he  would,  with  his  devoted  partner,  have  been  much  delighted 
to  have  been  actively  employed  in  directing  the  heathen  to  the  Saviour ;  but 
he  never  murmured ;  the  language  of  his  heart  appeared  to  be,  '  Not  my  will, 
but  Thine  be  done.'  His  widow,  who  at  first  appeared  crushed  with  the  stroke, 
was  enabled  also  through  her  tears  to  say,  *  Thy  vill  be  done.'  " 

It  should  be  added  that  our  excellent  and  lamented  young  friend,  Mr. 
Irvine,  had  been  specially  designated  to  a  highly  interesting  field  of  labour 
on  the  island  of  Uea,  one  of  the  Loyalty  Group,  and  the  inhabitants  of  that 
island  were  anxiously  expecting  the  arrival  of  their  missionary ;  but,  although 
their  hopes  have  been  thus  unexpectedly  dashed  to  the  ground,  we  trust  that, 
after  no  long  interval,  anotiier  and  equally  zealous  candidate  will  offer  for 
the  service.

CHKONICLE. 


MADAGASCAB. 


The  Mauritias  mail,  vid  Marseilles,  which  reached  Londoa  on  the  20th  ult., 
bnmght  letters  from  our  Missionary  Brethren  in  Madagascar ;  hnt  others, 
directed  rid  Southampton,  have  not  yet  been  delivered. 

It  is  a  cause  of  great  thankfulness  to  God,  that  the  Mission  generally  con- 
thiiies  to  be  mcgrked  by  the  tokens  of  His  special  favour ;  and  the  intelligence 
just  received  confirms  and  enlarges  the  gratifying  representations  made  in 
former  numbers  of  our  periodical.  The  Churches,  both  in  the  capital  and  in 
^e  surrounding  country,  enjoy  liberty  and  peace,  and  are  receiving  constant 
additions  to  their  fellowship.  Teleprinting  press  is  hard  worked,  and  schools 
are  multiplied.  Of  course  it  will  be  understood  that  everything  is  yet  in  its 
infency ;  but  in  all  departments  of  the  Mission  there  are  the  clearest  indica- 
tions of  progress,  and  the  most  cheering  prospects  of  still  wider  extension. 

Ve  subjoin  brief  extracts  from  a  letter  of  our  respected  and  beloved  friend 
the  Bev.  "WiLLiAir  Elus,  by  which  the  preceding  statements  are  confirmed ; 
and  our  readers  will  not  fail  to  remark  fit>m  his  letter,  that  many  of  the  new 
converts  have  been  recently  brought  out  of  heathenism,  and  also  that  the 
Queen  and  her  government,  although  attached  to  the  old  superstitions,  are, 
lieyertheless,  honourably  upholding  the  article  of  the  new  constitution,  which 
affords  freedom  and  security  of  worship  to  all  the  people  of  Madagascar. 

EXTBAGTB  OF  LETTER   TBOM    BEV«  W.  ELLIS,  DATED   OCTOBER  25tH,  1863. 

*' Amidst  the  unsettlement  resulting  from  a  change  of  government,  the 
Obnstians  continue  to  increase  in  a  manner  truly  gratifying — almost 
astonishing.  Fresh  adhesions  to  the  Grospel,  from  the  ranks  of  those  who 
We  followed  the  idols,  take  place  every  month.  I  am  connected  with  two 
of  the  churches,  and  last  Sunday  forty  were  added  to  those  two  by  baptism 
•-eighteen  at  one  place,  and  twenty-two  at  the  other;  and  last  night,  at 
our  diurch-meeting  at  Ambotonakanga,  I  admitted  to  our  fellowship  six- 
teen or  eighteen,  including  four  couples,  man  and  wife,  some  of  them  fix>m 
linages  devoted  to  the  idols,  and  hitherto  occupied  by  none  but  idol  wor-

shippers.  Daring  the  meetmg  I  learned  that,  at  the  village  of  Ampara- 
faravato,  the  depository  or  place  of  one  of  the  idols,  the  inhabitants  of 
which  were  its  keepers,  a  number  of  them  became  Christians,  set  apart  a 
house  for  worship,  and  met  to  worship  the  true  God ;  that  when  the  Queen 
heard  of  it,  she  said,  "  If  any  of  the  people  are  Christians,  and  wish  to  leave 
the  village,  they  may  do  so.  It  is  nothing  (meaning  there  is  no  blame),  let 
them  go.  Let  those  who  wish  to  stay,  stay ;  for  there  is  no  impediment  to 
the  following  the  idols,  or  to  uniting  with  the  Christians.'  And  some  of  those 
admitted  to  our  Church  had  acted  on  this  word  of  the  Queen,  and  had  joined 
with  us.  I  must  get  their  history  as  soon  as  I  can.  The  conduct  of  the  Queen 
often  makes  me  think  h^  attachment  to  the  idols  is  not  very  deep  or  strong, 
but  is  in  a  measure  used  as  a  means  of  preserving  the  prestige  of  her  ancestry — 
perhaps  the  most  powerful  influence  over  the  mind  of  the  Malagasy — and  thus 
keeping  aU  the  old  conservative  party  attached  to  her  government.  At  any 
rate,  the  Christians  rejoice,  and  feel,  as  some  said  last  night,  *  Great  is  the 
I)ower  of  God !    He  will  conquer  alL' " 


ERECTION  OF  THE  MEMORIAL  CHURCHES. 

The  erection  of  these  edifices,  which  have  so  deeply  interested  the  friends  of 
Christian  Missions,  has  received  from  the  Directors  the  most  considerate 
attention;  and,  although  they  deemed  it  necessary,  immediately  after  the 
death  of  the  late  king,  to  pause  awhile  before  they  commenced  the  work^ 
they  have  ^m  later  accounts  been  led  to  believe  tbat  the  sites  of  tke 
intended  churches  might  be  well  secured,  and  tbey  have  therefore  adopted 
the  following  resolution : — 

''  That,  provided  a  good  title  can  be  obtained  £rc»n  the  Government  of  Mada- 
gascar for  the  sites  of  the  intended  buildings,  one  of  the  churches  be  com- 
menced forthwith." 

The  building  operations  are  for  the  present  limited  to  one  of  the  intended 
churches,  not  merely  as  a  matter  of  precaution,  but  &om  the  necessity  of  the 
case,  vi2.,  the  want  of  a  sufficient  number  of  skilled  workmen. 

The  Directors  deem  themselves  happy  in  having  secured  the  services  ol" 
Mb.  James  Sibbee,  (the  son  of  their  esteemed  ministerial  friend  of  Hull), 
as  the  architect  and  superintendent  of  tbe  churches.  Mr.  S.  left  London  in 
August  last,  and  arrived  at  the  capital  of  Madagascar  in  the  month  of  October, 
and  the  following  letter,  just  received,  gives  his  first  report  on  the  sites 
selected  for  the  memorials  of  Christian  martyrdom.  The  Directors  feel  as- 
sured that  Mr.  Sibbee  will  enter  upon  his  work  with  competent  skill,  eor* 
rect  judgment,  and  thorough  personal  devotedness,  and  they  rejoice  that  their 
young  friend  unites  sound  intelligence  and  professional  ability  with  sincere 
Christian  principle. 

"  Antananarivo,  November  6th,  1863. 
'*  Rbt.  utd  dbab  Sib, — ^A  few  days  after  my  arrival  I  accompanied  Mr. 
Ellis  round  the  sites  of  the  proposed  Memorial  Churches ;  and,  before  partaen- 


FOR  MABCH,    1864.  &1 

lariring  the  points  of  intereflt  peculiar  to  each  epoti,  let  me  here  saj  that  I 
can  in  every  respect  corroborate  the  statement  of  oar  yalned  friend  as  to  the 
importance  of  these  sites  as  positions  for  bnildings  of  the  character  we  propose 
to  erect.  I  can,  apart  from  every  professional  feding,  enter  folly  into  Ihe 
enthusiasm  with  which  he  has  mrged  this  matter  npon  the  religious  puhKo  of 
Bngland.  Could  our  friends  at  home  see  these  positions,  they  would  feel  as 
desirous  as  we  do  that  such  places  should  he  ccmsecrated  for  ever  by  Christian 
worship,  as  they  have  already  been  by  the  blood  of  the  maaftyrs.  As  an  arehi- 
tecty  I  feel  that  the  opportunity  afforded  to  me  is  one  which  is  very  rare,  and 
Uiat  the  picturesque  and  commanding  position  of  these  places  is  worthy  of  the 
best  efforts  of  a  master  in  the  art.  Had  we  been  able  to  select  fr^m  the  whole 
dtj  we  could  not  have  obtained  finer  situations  for  our  buildings ;  and,  as  you 
will  perceive  from  the  sketch-tracing  I  indose,  they  form  centres  from  which 
we  eu  command  the  whole  of  the  captal. 

ABAPIMABINAKA. 

**  The  first  site  which  we  visited  was  Abapimabikana,  which  is  the  smallest 
in  area  of  all  four,  and  is  but  a  little  distance  below  the  palace,  on  the  west  of 
the  city.  From  this  spot,  which  is  the  Tarpeian  Bock  of  the  city,  nimibers  of 
fiothful  men  were  thrown  down  the  almost  perpendicular  precipice  and  dashed 
to  pieces.  This  place  commands  a  fine  view  of  the  great  parade-ground  imme- 
diately below,  the  beautiful  artificial  lake,  and  the  remarkable  conical  hill 
Ambohidzanahary  (the  hill  of  God),  together  with  the  great  rice-plain  and 
ranges  of  mountains  beyond,  to  the  westward.  At  present,  a  quantity  of  the 
bushes  of  the  prickly  pear  cover,  and  somewhat  take  off,  from  the  raggedness 
of  the  cliffs ;  but  from  the  printing-office  and  school,  and  from  the  Mission 
premises  at  Amparibe,  the  bold  and  rocky  crags  are  seen  to  great  advantage. 
From  its  proximity  to  the  palace  and  chief  nobles'  residences,  the  church  to 
be  erected  here  will  probably  have  the  most  infiuential  congregation. 

AMBOHIPOTST. 

"  From  here  we  proceeded  to  the  site  at  Axbohifotsy,  a  fine  rocky  plateau 
at  the  southern  extremity  of  the  hill  on  which  the  city  is  mainly  built.  H^e 
the  ground  has  been  levdled,  and  from  its  area  an  uninterrupted  view  east, 
south,  and  west  is  obtained.  From  the  elevation  above  the  plain,  viz.,  two  to 
three  hundred  feet,  a  great  extent  of  countay  is  commanded,  and  a  rery  large 
number  of  villages  and  small  towns  can  be  counted.  On  the  slopes  and  difis 
snrrounding  we  shall,  I  believe,  be  able  to  procure  plenty  of  granite,  a  large 
ncunber  of  stones  being  already  squared  and  dressed.  I  looked,  as  you  may 
suppose,  with  strange  feelings  upon  a  number  of  bones  bleaching  in  the  sun, 
when  I  learnt  that  these  were  the  remains  of  the  faithful  confessors  who  were 
here  speared  for  Christ's  sake,  and  for  the  testimony  of  the  Gk>spel.  I  could 
almost  excuse  something  of  the  Bomish  reverence  for  relics  as  I  viewed  these 
veritable  relics  of  real  saints. 

AKBALIKAlIAHaA. 

*'  From  Ambohipotsy  we  retraced  our  steps,  and  passing  by  the  palace  and 
through  the  city,  descended  by  the  chief  road  and  thoroughfiire  to  the  south- 
weatem  quarter  of  the  slope  of  the  hill  to  Ambauhakajtoa.  A  temporary 
du^el  of  woody  with  thatched  roof,  is  now  standing  on  part  of  this  site,  and

maj  perhaps  be  regarded  as  the  mother  church  of  the  other  five,  being  one 
of  the  first  phices  erected  for  Christian  worship  in  the  Island  at  the  founding 
of  the  Mission.  The  position  of  this  place,  at  an  angle  formed  by  the  junction 
of  the  principal  roads  in  the  city,  is  perhaps  the  most  convenient  of  all  four. 
Here  a  number  of  the  Natiye  Christians  suffered  in  chains  for  their  stead- 
fastness, and  endured  '  bonds  and  imprisonment/  which  in  some  cases  were 
the  prelude  to  violent  and  cruel  deaths.  The  ground  is  at  present  rough  and 
uneven,  large  irregular  masses  of  rock  cropping  up ;  but  as  these  will  to  a 
large  ertent  supply  stone  of  fair  quality,  we  shall  save  the  expense  of  bringing 
it  from  a  distance. 

VABAYOHITBA. 

^'The  fourth  and  last  of  these  sacred  spots  is  Fabayohitba,  which 
occupies,  at  the  northern  extremity  of  the  city,  somewhat  the  same  x>oeition  as 
Ambohipotsy  at  the  south.  The  hill  is  here  rather  lower,  but  frtym  the  top 
is  opened  a  similarly  wide  prospect  to  the  west,  north  and  east ;  northward 
some  six  miles  distant,  can  be  seen  the  hill  of  Itasy,  where  the  misguided 
Badama  11.  is  buried,  while  beyond  it,  about  double  the  distance,  in  a  nearly 
straight  line,  is  the  wooded  hill  of  Ambohimanga,  where  is  the  grave  of  the 
late  Queen  Banavalona.  The  ground  here  is  the  most  irregular  of  all  four 
sites.  On  the  position  now  partly  occupied  by  a  vegetable  garden,  in  sight 
of  a  great  part  of  the  city,  of  the  palace  and  nobles'  houses,  of  the  military 
^parade  ground,  and  the  great  market-place  below,  the  four  Christian  nobles 
endured  the  fiery  trial,  and  passed  from  the  burning  stake  to  the  martyr's 
crown.  I  am  told  that  the  charcoal  from  the  fires  is  still  turned  up.  I  turned 
homeward  again,  feeling  that  I  had  been  visiting  holy  ground,  and  that  Mr. 
Ellis's  idea  of  securing  these  places  for  Christian  worship  was  a  beautiful  and 
appropriate  thought,  and  one  worthy  of  the  energies  of  the  people  of  England, 
who  can  themselves  point  to  the  blood  of  the  martyrs  as  having  proved  the 
seed  of  the  Church. 

SPBCIMENS  OP  NATIVE  ABCHITECTUBE. 

**  I  have,  with  Mr.  Ellis's  assistance,  endeavoured  to  obtain  all  possible 
information  as  to  the  ability  of  native  workmen,  the  quality  and  supply  of 
materials  to  be  obtained,  the  adaptations  required  for  the  climate  and  the 
habits  of  the  i>eople,  together  with  other  points  necessary  to  be  considered 
in*designing  and  planning  the  churches.  I  have  visited  several  buildings, 
chiefly  gateways  and  tombs,  which  have  been  constructed  during  the  past 
four  years,  and  have  been  surprised  at  the  ability  shown  in  some  of  them. 
One  very  •large  tomb,  in  the  outskirts  of  the  city  to  the  north-west,  is  an 
astonishing  work,  considering  the  absence  of  European  superintendence. 
This  structure  is  a  square  of  perhaps  a  hundred  feet  in  dimensions  each  way, 
surrounded  by  a  stone  verandah  supported  on  columns  and  segmental  arches. 
Another  coloimade  is  erected  on  the  main  building,  and  at  the  angles  of  tne 
principal  front  two  very  elegant  erections,  of  somewhat  Hindoo  character, 
complete  the  desig^.  The  careful  finish  of  the  mouldings  is  very  remarkable, 
and  shows  that  the  workmen,  under  proper  guidance,  are  capable  of  macn 
more  than  would  be  supposed.  Whether,  however,  the  larger  ^®.  ^^ 
buildings,  and  the  greater  height  of  the  walls,  would  overtask  their  sioijt 
remains  to  be  proved.    This  tomb  has  been  built  entirely  of  granite,  whicB 


FOR  UA-RCH,    1864.  53 

was  bronght  from  the  sites  of  two  of  our  ohnrclies,  viz.  Ambatanakanga, 
and  FaraYohitry,  and  is  in  excellent  preservation.  Although  many  parts 
have  been  erected  some  years,  yet  the  marks  of  the  pick  and  chisd  are  mostly 
as  sharp  as  on  the  day  when  made.  I  should  feel  therefore  little  hesitation 
in  using  this  material  for  the  memorial  buildings,  supposing  that  a  sufficient 
quantity  of  the  proper  kind  can  be  obtained.  It  varies  much  in  texture  and 
hardness,  from  a  stone  equal  to  Aberdeen  granite,  to  a  kind  as  soft  as  day. 
This  tomb  was  constructed  under  the  superintendence  of  three  workmen,  one 
of  whom  was  thrown  from  the  rocks  at  Ampamarinana,  and  the  other  two 
have  been  engaged  by  Mr.  Ellis  to  superintend  the  masons.  There  are 
sereral  gateways  in  various  parts  of  the  city,  which  have  evidently  been 
roughly  copied  from  drawings  of  Roman  triumphal  arches,  and  are  very 
creditably  executed. 

IKCBEA8E  OF  WOBKMEN  BEQUIBED. 

"But  one  great  difficulty  which  we  shall  have  to  contend  with,  is  the 
scarcity  of  skilled  workmen.  From  what  our  two  foremen  tell  me,  we  cannot 
get  more  than  about  forty  men  who  are  capable  of  doing  masons*  work,  while 
we  should  have  from  sixty  to  seventy  to  commence  with.  We  may  be  able 
to  train  others,  who  in  time  would  be  able  to  assist,  by  preparing  the  stone 
roughly  for  the  others  to  finish ;  but  this  would  be  a  work  of  time,  and  unless 
we  have  a  considerable  addition  to  the  number  of  men,  I  believe  a  much 
longer  period  than  three  years  will  be  required  for  the  completion  of  the 
churches.  There  is  another  fact  which  is  almost  certain  to  cause  delay.  We 
are  not  sure  even  of  these  workmen.  All  skilled  artisans  are  servants  or 
slaves  to  the  nobles  and  rich  men ;  and  although  we  may  pay  for  their  work,, 
we  are  entirely  dependent  upon  the  good  will  of  the  masters  for  their  co^- 
tinuance.  They  will  be  called  off  continually  for  drilling  as  troops,  and,  should 
the  government  require  them  for  any  public  works,  we  may  be  left  without 
their  service  for  months.  In  case  of  war,  we  should  not  of  course  be  able  to 
retain  them.  I  mention  these  facts  to  show  you  exactly  our  position ;  you 
must  not  think  I  am  disposed  to  look  at  the  dark  side  of  the  subject — on  the 
contrary,  I  am  determined  to  make  the  best  of  things,  and  to  see  if  it  be 
not  possible  to  make  a  commencement.  Still,  you  will  see  that  they  are  grave 
matters,  and  may  considerably  hinder  our  progress. 

COST  OF  THE  GHUBOHBS. 

**  Before  I  conclude  I  must  mention  another  subject  in  connection  with  the 
buildings,  viz.,  their  probable  cost.  I  cannot  speak  with  much  accuracy,  but 
from  the  rough  calculations  I  have  obtained,  I  think  Mr.  Ellis  has  somewhat 
Mnder-estimated  the  cost  of  the  churches.  There  are  some  points  which,  as  a 
non-professional  man,  he  has  very  excusably  overlooked.  It  will  be  well, 
therefore,  at  the  outset  to  say  that  I  think  from  £500  to  £1000  may  be 
required  in  each  case  beyond  what  he  has  named,  that  is,  if  the  churches  are 
to  be  anything  more  than  four  plain  walls  with  a  substantial  covering.  X 
believe  that  the  feeling  of  those  who  have  subscribed,  as  well  as  the  Directors 
themselves,  would  not  be  satisfied  merely  with  this,  but  would  suggest  that 
something,  combining  in  addition  appropriateness  of  character  and  pleasing 
exterior,  shotdd  be  aimed  at.     I  hope  we  shall  not  be  limited  to  the  amount 


54  MISSIONABY  MAGAZIKE 

(£2500)  named  in  mj  instmctions  ae  the  ezpenditore  for  each  church.  When 
the  cost  of  chmehes  in  Enghind  is  considered,  where  we  haye  ererj  appli« 
anoe  of  modem  skill  and  ingentdtj  to  save  expense  and  labour,  and  then 
contrast  it  with  onr  want  of  most  of  these,  the  expense  of  obtaining  many 
thongs  from  England,  the  training  of  workmen,  and  the  ineritable  cost  of 
eoqierience  in  sodi  work,  I'^hope  neither  the  Directors  nor  the  public  will 
think  us  wanting  in  due  care  and  economy  if  the  amounts  named  are  exceeded. 
I  beliere  few,  if  any,  chapels  of  eyen  plain  character,  haye  been  erected  at 
home  to  hold  the  number  we  propose  to  accommodate,  for  such  an  amount. 
And  while  I  can  assure  the  Directors  that,  as  far  as  I  haye  to  do  with  it,  all 
needless  expense  shall  be  ayoided,  and  due  economy  used,  I  belieye  I  should 
not  be  discharging  my  duty  if  I  did  not  attempt  to  giye  the  buildings  some- 
thing of  architectural  character  worthy  of  the  eyents  they  are  designed  to 
commemorate. 

*'  Although  I  hardly  feel  yet  in  a  position  to  spealc  with  certainly,  it  appears 
to  me  that  we  should  endeayour  to  make  a  commencement  with  one  church 
— ^that  at  Ambalinakanoa.  By  the  next  mail  I  may  therefore  be  able  to 
send  you  word  that  one  foimdation  stone  has  been  laid.  I  haye  felt  great 
difficulty  and  perplexity  as  to  the  right  path  to  pursue  in  the  unforeseen 
circumstances  which  haye  occurred ;  yet  I  trust  that  both  wisdom  and  strength, 
win  be  giyen  to  act  for  the  best.  I  must  express  my  deep  sense  of  obligation  to 
Mr.  Ellis  for  his  unyarying  kindness  and  confidence. 

**  Please  to  remember  me  to  Mr.  Prout,  and,  with  many  thanks  to  yourself 
and  to  him  for  your  great  kindness  and  courtesy,  belieye  me  to  remain,

CHINA. 

PEKIl^G. 
The  intelligence  recently  received  from  the  Rev.  Joseph  Edkins,  and  which 
we  now  lay  before  our  readers,  is  the  first  of  its  kind  which  we  have  had  the 
pleasure  to  report.  It  will  be  seen  that  our  esteemed  friend,  who  is  now 
located  in  the  capital,  accompanied  by  the  Rev.  Jonathan  Lees,  started 
from  Pekino  in  the  month  of  October  last,  on  a  missionary  journey  to  the 
north.  They  proceeded  as  far  as  a  populous  trading  town  called  Chaito  ha 
Kow,  distant  130  English  miles  from  the  capital.  This  flourishing  town  is 
on  the  high  road  to  Russia,  and  on  the  frontier  of  Tabtart.  On  their  journey 
they  incurred  no  obstruction,  and  enjoyed  many  opportunities  of  circulating 
the  truths  of  the  Gospel.  The  country  through  which  they  passed  presented 
many  objects  of  deep  and  varied  interest ;  and  the  general  result  of  this  first 
missionary  itinerancy  justifies  the  expectation  that  Christian  teachers  in  the 
north  of  China  wiU,  perhaps^  fiud  fewer  obstructionB  to  their  labours  than 
are  encountered  in  the  x)opulous  mercantile  cities  south  of  Peking.  It  must 
sorelj  awaken  great  thankfulness  on  the  part  of  the  Christian  Church,  that 


FOR  MARCH,  1864.  55 

eren  in  the  capital  of  China  and  in  the  unknown  regions  beyond  it,  the 
aerrants  of  Christ  may  pursne  their  peaceful  labours  without  let  or  hindrance; 
and  "who  shall  despise  the  day  of  small  things  ?" 

"  Peking,  November  23, 1863. 
'*  Mt  i>bab  Bbothbb, — Since  I  wrote  to  you  last  month  I  have  visited 
■Hentain,  and  administered  the  Lord's  Supper  to  the  converts,  and  also 
baptised  two  persons.  Both  of  them  were  well  spoken  of  by  the  converts, 
mad  Bnaaimously  approred.  I  now  leave  the  Native  Church  at  that  Station 
in  the  hands  of  Mr.  Lees.  The  working  strength  of  the  Church  consists  of 
three  men  who  have  evinced  some  aptitude  for  preaching,  and  a  young  man 
who  may  become  usefdl  as  a  schoolmaster.  Mr.  L.  retains  one  preacher  and 
the  young  schoolmaster,  while  I  have  brought  the  other  two  preachers  here. 

'*  Mr.  Lees  accompanied  me  to  this  city  in  the  latter  part  of  October,  and 
we  set  out  a  few  days  after  on  a  missionary  journey  to  Chang  eia  kow. 
ThiA  is  a  large  trading  town  about  130  English  miles  from  Peking,  on  the 
road  to  Russia.  It  is  at  the  frontier  of  Tartary,  and  the  traffic  of  Kiachta 
pftsaing  through  it  renders  it  extremely  flourishing.  The  Bussians  call  it 
TCalgan.  Mr.  Wylie,  before  he  left  England,  wrote  to  ask  me  to  meet  him 
tiiere.  We  returned,  however,  after  reaching  the  first  x>osting  station,  twenty- 
two  mileB  past  Chang  Ida  kow,  without  meeting  our  valued  friend ;  but,  a  few 
days  after  our  return,  a  letter  reached  us  from  TJrga,  in  which  he  informed  us 
that,  having  reached  that  place  (the  capital  of  Mongolia),  he  hoped  to  arrive  at 
Peking  on  the  30th  of  this  month. 

**  While  we  were  at  Chang  kia  kow,  two  Russians  came  to  our  inn,  who 
proved  to  be  merchants  connected  with  the  Kiachta  trade.    I  accosted  them 
in  Chinese,  which  one  of  them  understood.    He  is  called  M.  Starstoff,  and 
resides  at  Tientsin.    He  gave  me  some  interesting  particulars  respecting  our 
early  Mission  at  Selinginsk,  of  which  town  he  is  a  native.    When  he  was  a 
b(^,  he  knew  the  families  of  the  English  missionaries,  and  has  often  seen 
Shagdur,  of  whom  notices  appear  in  our  old  magazines.    This  aged  Buriat 
convert,  who  on  one  occasion  travelled  nearly  as  far  as  to  Chang  Ida  kow  as 
a  preacher  and  distributor  of  books,  was  still  living,  three  years  ago,  when 
young  M.  Starstoff  was  in  Selinginsk.    He  is  supported  by  his  son  and  the 
produce  of  his  land.    The  missionaries  of  the  G^eek  Church,  who  have  been 
labouring  for  many  years  among  the  Buriats,  have  been  joined  by  some  of  the 
converts  who  were  the  fruit  of  the  labours  of  our  missionaries,  but  others  have 
not  joined  them,  preferring  to  continue  as  they  were.    The  Greek  mission- 
aries have  printed  books  in  Mongolian,  making  use  of  the  treatises  already 
prepared  by  Messrs.  Stallybrass  and  Swan.    M.  Starstoff  has  promised  me 
C(^e8  of  these  reprints.    Whatever  farther  information  I  can  obtain  on  this 
interesting  subject  I  wiU  communicate  to  you.    But  Mr.  Wylie,  who  passed 
through  Selinginsk,  will  doubtless  bring  much  interesting  and  important 
iaieUigence  repecting  Shagdur  and  his  associates,  which  will  be  more  recent 
and  full  than  the  particulars  I  accidentally  gathered  from  my  Russian  friend. 
"  The  road  we  traversed  proceeds  north  from  Peking,  through  a  rich 
country  well  planted  with  groves  of  fimereal  trees  and  roadside  avenues,  for 
twenty  miles,  to  the  celebrated  tombs  of  the  Mings.    Here  thirteen  of  the 


5$  MIfiSIONABY  MAGAZINE 

emperors  of  that  proud  Chinese  dynasty  were  laid,  each  in  his  own  sepulchre. 
They  occupy  a  vast  amphitheatre  among  mountains,  opening  to  the  south, 
and  occupying  about  fifteen  square  miles.  Rich  marble  ardies  and  monu- 
ments abound.  The  tomb  of  Yung  lo,  who  in  the  fifteenth  century  remoTed 
the  seat  of  goyemment  firom  Nanking  to  Peking,  is  of  magnificent  proportions. 
The  pillars  which  support  the  tablet  hall  are  enormous  teak  trees,  brought  by 
land  from  Burmah.  The  artificial  mound,  in  which  the  remains  of  this 
emperor  are  interred,  is  nearly  a  mile  in  circumference.  A  long  avenue  of 
gigantic  stone  figures  conducts  to  these  tombs.  The  figures  represent  officers 
of  state,  elephants,  lions,  camels,  horses,  and  various  fabulous  animals. 

**  Leaving  this  curious  spectacle,  we  went  through  a  rocky  mountain  pass, 
extending  for  fifteen  miles  through  the  mountain  chain,  which  here  stretches 
from  the  N.E.  to  the  S.W.  Five  miles  from  the  entrance,  we  came  upon  a 
monument  in  four  languages,  erected  in  the  time  of  the  Mongolian  dynasty. 
The  languages  are  Sanscrit,  Tibetan,  Mongol,  and  Chinese.  The  subject  is  a 
Buddhist  charm,  intended  to  be  read  by  travellers  making  use  of  these  lan- 
guages, for  their  own  preservation  and  that  of  the  empire.  The  great  wall  is 
carried  over  the  mountains  on  the  north  side  of  the  chain.  Beside  ike 
double  gates  and  walls  of  this  ancient  structure,  there  are  two  fortresses,  which 
guard  the  interior  of  the  pass,  and  another  at  its  south  end.  Leaving  these 
barriers,  we  entered  on  the  department  of  Siuen  hwa  fu,  where  we  visited 
several  walled  towns  and  cities.  Siuen  hwa  fu  is  the  seat  of  a  Bomanist 
mission.  Its  walls  are  ten  miles  in  circuit.  Li  the  thirteenth  century  it  was 
the  summer  residence  of  the  Mongol  emperors,  a  circumstance  which  led  to 
its  walls  being  extended  to  this  large  size.  Near  it  there  is  an  extensive 
range  of  coal  pits,  which  appear  to  have  been  worked  for  many  centuries. 

"  This  is  the  season  for  the  annual  visit  of  Mongol  traders  to  Peking.  We 
met  groups  of  them,  with  large  droves  of  camels,  and  some  of  them  riding  on 
ponies.  Those  with  whom  I  was  able  to  have  a  few  minutes'  conversation 
accepted  books  with  willingness.  We  are  now  distributing  constantly,  as 
there  is  opportunity,  copies  of  seven  tracts  by  Mr.  StaUybrass,  and  the  Old 
and  New  Testaments,  by  Mr.  Swan  and  Mr.  Stallybrass,  all  in  Mongolian. 

"  Chang  kia  kow  is  a  very  populous  and  busy  town.  We  remained  there 
two  nights.  A  French  merchant,  who  is  also  a  zealous  Catholic,  is  residing 
there,  and  there  is  also  a  Bussian  consulate.  We  spent  one  of  our  Sundays 
on  the  edge  of  the  Mongolian  plateau,  to  which  point  a  day's  riding  on  our 
mules  brought  us,  by  a  rapidly  ascending  road.  There  we  saw  the  sort  of  life 
which  the  Abb§  Hue  vividly  depicts  in  his  work  on  Tartary — the  fire  of 
argols ;  the  round  tent,  with  its  fire  in  the  centre ;  its  felt  carpeting  round  the 
fire  for  seats ;  and  its  piled  boxes  and  household  articles  on  the  sides.  Some  of 
the  Mongols  we  found  living  in  houses  constructed  in  Chinese  fashion.  The 
women  and  children  came  forward  to  see  us  without  fear.  Li  the  village,  two 
only  of  these  simple,  kindly-tempered  people  could  read. 

*'  At  various  towns  where  we  stopped  for  the  night,  going  and  returning, 
we  sought  out  the  schoolmasters  in  the  neighbourhood,  and  strove  to  awaken 
their  interest  in  the  good  things  of  the  kingdom  of  Grod ;  and  obtained  from 
them  what  information  we  could  regarding  the  towns  in  which  they  reside. 
The  anxiety  exhibited  for  books  was,  as  is  usual  in  China,  very  great ;  and 


FOR  MARCH,   1864.  67 

we  hope  jour  prayers  will  ascend  to  the  Lord  of  the  harvest,  that  the  books 
given  away  may  be  useful  to  the  readers.  A  oustom-honse  officer  at  one 
town  bad  previously  received  a  Testament  when  at  Tungcheu,  his  native  city. 
This  be  said  he  bad  given  to  a  friend,  and  was  anxious  to  have  another. 

**  I  am  now  establishing  a  small  preaching  station  in  a  populous  part  of 
this  city,  and  a  day-school  in  another.  Soon  I  hope  I  may  be  able  to  inform 
joa  that  these  attempts  to  extend  our  operations  here  have  proved  fruitftil 
in  spiritual  benefits  to  the  people  in  the  vicinity. 

**  The  summary  dismissal  of  Captain  Osbom  and  Mr.  Lay  by  the  Chinese 
Goremment  has  caused  us  some  anxiety.  It  looks  like  the  commencement 
of  an  anti-foreign  policy ;  but,  while  the  present  English  ambassador  remains, 
it  is  not  likely  that  anything  will  be  done  to  irritate  or  alienate  the  Native 
authorities.  Now  that  we  have  obtained  a  lodgment  here,  the  mild  policy  of 
her  Majesty's  representative  is  to  us  the  beet  guarantee  for  our  undisturbed 
continuance  in  this  important  field  for  missionary  labour.

AREIYAL  OF  MISSIONAEIES  IN  CHINA. 

LETTER  FROM   REV.   WILLIAM  MITIRHEAD. 

"  Shanghae,  December  9th,  1863. 

"Dear  Dr.  Tidman, — I  have  much  pleasure  in  informing  you  of  the 
arrival  of  the  *  Polmaise.'  Our  missionary  friends  are  all  weU,  and  appear 
thoroughly  to  have  enjoyed  their  voyage.  Mr.  and  Mrs.  Thomas  are  now 
with  us,  and  I  beg  to  thank  the  Directors  for  having  sent  us  such  a  reinforce- 
ment. Your  kind  expressions  in  regard  to  them  are  amply  confirmed  in  our 
view ;  and  it  will  give  me  the  utmost  pleasure  to  labour  with  our  dear  Brother 
in  the  service  of  our  blessed  Lord  and  Master. 

"  When  the  *  Folmaise '  arrived,  at  the  close  of  last  week,  there  seemed  to 
be  no  hope  of  our  other  Brethren,  Dr.  Dudgeon  and  Mr.  James  Williamson, 
proceeding  north  during  the  winter.  Accordingly,  I  sought  to  make  all 
needful  arrangements  for  their  stay  here.  I  have  just  been  informed,  how- 
ever, by  the  consignee  of  one  of  the  steamers,  that  there  is  a  probability  of 
her  going  north  in  a  day  or  two.  It  is  uncertain,  on  account  of  the  setting 
in  of  the  ice.  Still,  if  she  should  go,  I  shall  be  glad  to  send  our  two  Brethren 
by  her,  as  they  are  also  anxious  to  reach  their  respective  destinations.  The 
steamer  will  not  land  them  at  Tientsin,  but  at  Taku,  from  which  there  are 
suitable  means  of  conveyance  to  Tientsin  and  Peking.  It  will  be  a  great

possible.

INDIA. 

MlSSIOyAET   TOUE   IX   THE   HYDERABID   COXTNTBT. 

Whilst  among  the  people  of  India  there  are  still  multitudes  who,  from 
bigotry  or  custom,  cling  to  their  hereditary  superstitions,  and  refuse  to 
examine  the  claims  of  Christianity,  there  are  others — and  happily  their 
numbers  are  largiely  on  the  increase— who  listen  to  the  message  of  a  Saviour's 
love  with  interest  and  delight.  The  Rev.  Edward  Porter,  of  Cuddapah, 
during  a  recent  tour  in  Hyderabad,  a  much  neglected  portion  of  the  Telugu 
country,  met  with  many  of  this  latter  class ;  and  truly  affecting  must  it 
have  been,  when  he  had  proclaimed  the  Gospel  in  their  midst,  to  hear  their 
pathetic  rebuke :— "  How  long  have  you  known  of  this  good  way  ?  Why 
did  you  not  come  and  tell  us  about  it  before  ?*'  The  field  is  indeed  ripe  unto 
the  harvest,  but  the  labourers  are  few  and  far  between.  Would  that  they 
were  greatly  multiplied ! 

"  As  I  have  just  returned  from  a  long  and  deeply  interesting  tour  in  the 
E^derabad  country  (having  been  absent  two  months  from  home,  travelled 
seven  hundred  and  twenty  miles,  and  visited,  either  myself  or  with  the  aid  of 
the  evangelist  (Peter),  upwards  of  ninety  towns  and  villages),  I  am  able  to 
speak  concerning  the  nature  of  the  country,  the  disposition  of  the  people,  and 
the  facilities  that  at  present  exist  for  the  spread  of  Divine  truth  in  this  hitherto 
neglected  part  of  the  Telugu  country.  Prom  Kumool  to  Hyderabad  is  a 
fme  open  coimtry,  interspersed  with  low  forest,  and  capable  of  great  agricul- 
tural improvements.  It  consists  of  a  fine  elevated  plain,  gradually  rising  from 
the  banks  of  the  Kestua,  as  far  as  the  neighbourhood  of  Hyderabad,  to  the 
height  of  22(X>  feet  above  the  level  of  the  sea.  The  present  condition  of  the 
inhabitants  is  very  distressing  to  every  Christian  and  benevolent  mind. 

DEPBBS8I0N  OP  THE  PEOPLE. 

"  The  people  (chiefly  Telugus),  are  very  ignorant,  low  in  worldly  circum- 
stances, agriculture  very  rude,  date  toddy  drank  by  all  classes,  which  is  sadly 
corrupting  to  body  and  soul.  They  are  grievously  oppressed  by  their 
voracious  landlords,  but  free  from  prejudice,  less  wedded  to  caste,  and  far  more 
willing  to  listen  to  the  message  of  redeeming  love  than  any  natives  of  the 
Cnddapah,  and  other  districts,  which  I  have  visited  in  the  Telugu  country.

TREIS  iriLLIKaNESfl  TO  BBCBITX  THB  OOSPBL. 

**  In  some  places,  as  at  Jannpett,  Coba-Cota,  and  Fnrruknugger,  they  came 
oat  of  their  villages  in  groups  of  tbirtj,  sixty,  and  ninety,  and  followed  as  to 
,the  bungalow,  beseeching  us  to  tell  them  more  of  the  good  way.  In  this  way 
we  were  engaged  from  day  to  day,  instructing  the  people  as  long  as  we  had 
physical  strength  to  continue  our  labours  among  them. 

"The  foUy  of  idolatry,  the  evil  character  of  the  Hindoo  gods,  the  nature  of 
sin  as  opposed  to  God's  authority  and  man's  true  happiness,  the  necessity  of 
an  all- sufficient  sacrifice  to  atone  for  sin,  the  glorious  provision  that  God  has 
made  in  the  Gospel  for  the  removal  of  it,  and  our  restoration  to  the  Divine 
favour  and  image,  the  nature  and  happiness  of  the  heavenly  world — all 
these  topics  were  fufly  discussed  and  explained  to  this  interesting  people, 
intermixed  with  earnest  exhortations  to  come  to  Jesus  for  spiritual  healing. 
In  most  cases  the  natives  listened  with  deep  attention,  in  some  with  evident 
anxiety,  and  in  others  the  countenance  lightened  up  with  joy  when  we  told 
them  of  the  boundless  love  of  God  to  sinners  in  Christ  Jesus.  In  a  few 
coses  it  was  difficult  to  leave  them,  so  great  was  their  anxiety  for  us  to  stay 
with  them  a  few  days,  to  tell  them  more  of  this  good  way. 

**  The  questions  put  by  some  of  them  were  very  painful,  fi&owing  the  great 
apathy  and  deficiency  of  zeal  on  the  part  ci  the  Christian  Church  to  meet  the 
jyiilUial  wants  of  the  heathen  wcrid,  and  the  great  extent  of  country  that 
remains  yet  to  be  oooopied. 

**  After  hearing  our  messages,  some  would  ash  us, '  Sir,  how  long  have  your 
people  known  of  this  good  way  P*  When  we  t<^d  them  hundreds  of  years,  the 
repty  was  ready :  *  Why  did  you  not  send  us  instruction  before,  to  tell  us  of 
this  good  way  P*  What  could  we  say  to  such  words  ?  Others  would  ask  with 
anxiety,  *  When  will  you  come  again  and  tell  us  more  of  this  reKgion  ?' 

BXTBACTS  FBOM  JOURNAL. 

"  I  will  give  you  a  few  extracts  from  my  journal,  as  exhibiting  the  anxiety  of 
the  people  to  hear  the  Word  of  life. 

"  August  6th. — ^Arrived  at  Jannpett,  a  large  village  in  the  country  of  the 
Kunupurthy  B^ah,  seventy  miles  from  Kumool,  and  one  hundi'ed  and 
ninety  from  Cuddapah.  Here  we  fcmnd  a  new  bungalow  just  finished,  for  the 
aocommodation  of  European  trav^ers.  The  scenery  all  round  was  beautiful, 
and  the  air  cool  and  bracing.  We  spoke  to  a  few  natives  in  the  village  as  we 
passed  through  it,  and  then  went  on  to  the  bungalow,  having  visited  and 
preached  in  two  villages  that  morning. 

THE  CLAIMS  OP  CHBI8T  OPPOSED  TO  THOSE  OT  dCEVA. 

•*  A  short  time  after  our  arrival,  a  number  of  natives  followed  us  to  listen  to 
our  message.  Upwards  of  forty  sat  down  in  the  verandah  to  listen  to  our 
instrcctionB.  We  exposed  the  foUy  of  idol-worship,  the  nature  and  curse  of 
sin,  and  then  pointed  out  the  more  excellent  way.  One  man,  of  the  smith 
caste,  contended  stoutly  for  Soeva  being  the  true  God.  But  when  our 
erangeKst  showed  plainly,  f^m  their  own  books,  the  vile  actions  of  Sceva, 
be  was  silenced,  and  confessed  that  such  deeds  did  not  become  the  true  God. 
We  then  showed  them,  in  contrast,  the  Hfe  and  character  of  our  Lord  Jesus 
C^arist^  and  what  He  had  doneand  suffered  for  us,  and  exhorted  them  to  beKero 


60;  3aS8IONARY  KAOAZINE 

in  Him  for  salvation.  We  had  a  second  assembly  after  this  was  dismissed,  to 
whom  we  made  known  the  Word  of  life.  The  evangelist  also  went  in  the  even- 
ing to  the  village,  and  addressed  a  large  assembly  in  one  of  the  chief  streets. 
Upwards  of  one  hundred  assembled,  and  listened  for  nearly  an  hour  to  his 
teaching.  Before  leaving  them  he  offered  up  prayer  to  the  true  Grod  on  their 
behalf,  that  He  would  enable  them  to  forsake  all  idol-worship,  and  give  them 
grace  to  embrace  the  true  religion.  They  put  themselves  in  the  attitude  of 
prayer,  and  were  very  silent  during  the  whole  of  this  devotional  exercise. 
They  asked,  on  his  going  away,  'When  will  you  visit  us  again  and  tell  us  more 
of  this  new  religion  P*  They  assured  our  evangelist  that  they  had  never  heard 
this  good  religion  before.  In  this  village  we  noticed  girls  learning  to  read  in 
the  school,  a  thing  which  is  veiy  rarely  seen  in  this  country,  except  where 
missionary  operations  have  been  carried  on  for  some  time. 

BBVUTATION  OF  THE  HINDOO  ABGTJMBKT  THAT  GOD  IS  THE  AUTHOR  OF 

SIN. 

"  August  6th. — Went  to  Moosawpett,  a  large  village  about  two  miles  distant. 
Here  we  had  a  large  congregation  of  upwards  of  seventy  souls.  Bead  part  of 
the  fifth  chapter  of  the  GU>spel  by  Matthew,  and  explained  the  nature  of  true 
religion,  and  the  true  characteristics  of  GUxl's  children  in  all  ages.  We  showed 
also  the  vanity  of  trusting  to  mere  outward  ceremonies  whilst  the  heart  is 
corrupt  and  the  life  wicked.  After  this  was  finished,  one  Brahmin  contended 
that  Qod  was  the  author  of  sin;  that,  as  all  things  came  from  Him,  so  He  was 
the  author  of  good  and  evil.  We  showed  him  and  the  people  around  that  God 
could  not  be  the  author  of  sin  for  various  reasons.  1.  Because  it  was  contrary 
to  his  Holy  nature.  2.  Because  it  was  contrary  to  the  light  of  conscience  which 
Qod  had  put  in  the  breast  of  every  man.  8.  Because  God  had  connected  punish- 
ment with  sin,  in  the  present  life.  4.  That  all  the  punishments  inflicted  by  the 
various  governments  of  the  world  upon  men,  for  crimes  of  various  kinds, 
showed  that  sin  was  from  man,  and  not  from  Grod.  He  was  silenced,  but  still 
imagined  that  sin  must  have  had  a  birth,  looking  upon  it  as  some  material 
thing,  instead  of  a  corrupt  state  of  mind  leading  to  all  wicked  deeds. 

DISTBIBUTIOK  OF  CHRISTIAN  BOOKS. 

"  The  evangelist  sold  a  few  tracts,  and  we  then  went  away  to  the  bungalow. 
About  two  p.  M.  we  left  for  Juggedercherla,  the  next  stage.  As  we  were 
going  on  the  road,  a  woman  came  out  and  asked  us  for  books.  My  servant 
went  and  spoke  to  the  people  in  the  village.  They  heard  with  great  attention^ 
and  wished  us  very  much  to  stay  with  them.  Many  of  them  had  never  seen 
anything  in  the  shape  of  tracts  or  books  before. 

"  Th^  were  much  delighted,  and  purchased  some  at  a  low  price.  All  the 
tracts  we  distributed  contain  a  short  account  of  the  fall  of  man,  and  the 
way  of  salvation  by  Jesus  Christ.  So  we  may  hope  these  little  messengers 
will  teach  them,  when  our  voice  is  no  longer  heard. 

PBEAGHINO  TO  THE  PEOPLE,  AND  ITS  RESULTS. 

"  8^. — ^Arrived  at  Furrutonugger,  a  large  town,  thirty  miles  frt>m  Hyderabad* 
We  went  out  into  the  street,  and  addressed  a  large  number  of  persons  (about 
two  hundred).  They  listened  with  great  attention  and  respect,  whilst  we 
explained  the  character  of  the  true  God,  the  ten  conunandments,  the  trans*

gresmon  of  man,  and  the  way  of  salvation  by  Jeans  Christ.  I  showed  how 
men  had  corrupted  their  way  by  forgetting  the  true  God  and  going  after  idols. 
I  compared  the  soul  of  man  to  a  garden,  which  God  had  given  us  to  keep, 
that  we  must  dig  up  the  weeds  of  evil  passion  and  wicked  thoughts  found  in 
it,  and  sow  it  with  good  instruction.  The  people  replied,  *  What  you  say  is 
goody  and  we  must  try  and  remember  your  instructions.*  Others  said,  *  Sir, 
we  have  worshipped  our  gods,  because  we  knew  of  no  better;  but  your 
religion  tells  us  of  a  pure  and  holy  (Jod,  and  we  must  try  and  remember  Him.' 
After  we  left  the  town,  and  went  to  the  bungalow,  great  numbers  followed 
us,  80  that  we  were  occupied  all  the  day  in  reading  and  explaining  the  Word 
of  Grod  to  successive  groups,  who  came  to  us  to  know  more  of  this  new 
religion.  When  1  was  tired,  the  evangelist  would  take  up  the  work  of  in- 
struction, and  explain  to  them  the  reasons  why  we  had  come  among  them, 
and  the  blessings  that  would  flow  to  them  from  embracing  this  good  way. 
Though  we  were  in  the  midst  of  the  Nizam's  country,  yet  we  met  with  no 
molestation,  and  the  Mohammedans  of  the  town  we  found  civil  and  well- 
behaved,  which  cannot  be  said  of  most  of  them.  We  sold  eight  annas  worth 
of  Telugu  Scriptures  and  tracts  at  this  place,  and  found  it  difficult  to  move 
from  hence,  so  great  was  the  desire  of  the  people  to  hear  more  of  the  Word  of 
Hfe." 

SOUTH  AFRICA. 

REPORT  OF  MISSIONARY  ORDINATION  AND  EVANOELISTIC  LABOURS  IN 
THE   COLONY. — COMMUNICATED  BY  THE   REV.   T.  ATKINSON. 

"  Pacaltsdorp,  December  15th,  1863. 

"  My  dear  Sir, — ^I  have  lately  been  engaged  with  some  of  my  Brethren  in 
several  interesting  services,  and  of  these  they  have  requested  me  to  send  you 
a  brief  account. 

"  The'  first  was  the  ordination  of  our  young  Brother,  Mr.  Samuel  Parker 
Elliott,  who,  as  you  are  aware,  is  the  son  of  our  late  highly-esteemed  Brother, 
the  Rev.  W.  Elliott,  and  who  has  been  recognised  by  the  Directors  of  our 
Society  as  one  of  its  agents  in  this  colony.  He  was  ordained  at  Dysselsdorp 
to  the  work  of  the  ministry  generally,  and  more  especially  as  the  pastor  of 
the  Church  at  that  place.  Dysselsdorp  had  been  for  twenty-two  years  under 
the  care  of  our  Brother,  the  Rev.  B.  E.  Anderson,  and  out  of  his  labours,  under 
the  Divine  blessing,  have  subsequentiy  arisen  the  congregations  at  Oudtshoom 
and  Malges  River  (or  Cango).  Mr.  A.,  however^  found  the  constant  oversight 
of  all  these  places,  and  the  labour  involved,  too  much  for  his  strength ;  and 
hence  measures  were  taken  by  which  Dysselsdorp  should  become  a  s^arate 
station  with  its  own  pastor.  Our  friend  Mr.  Elliott,  having  paid  the  people 
at  Dysselsdorp  a  visit,  was  invited  to  settie  among  them,  and  accepted  the 
invitation.  After  nine  months,  his  ordination  was  fixed  for  the  Srd  of 
December.  Having  no  railroads  in  this  part  of  the  colony,  nor  even  the  con- 
venience of  coaches,  travelling  is  often  difficult  and  expensive,  and  sometimes 
also  a  very  unpleasant  undertaking,  especially  in  rainy  weather,  such  as  we 
have  lately  had.  Our  Brethren^  Helm  and  Barber,  arrived  here  (Pacaltsdorp) 
on  the  evening  of  the  1st  inst.,  having  had  torrents  of  rain  just  before  reaching 


62  MIS8I0KABT  MAGAZTNE 

this  place.  The  following  mommg  the  weather  was  still  wet  and  threatening, 
and  we  were  in  doabt  iHiether  we  coald  undertake  the  joumej.  After  some 
d^aj,  we  resolved  on.  making  the  attempt ;  but  had  not  been  long  on  the  road 
before  we  enooontered  a  heavy  storm  of  rain,  which  rendered  it  donbtfol 
whether  we  mnst  not  retom  after  all,  and  wait  for  finer  weather.  But  after  a 
time  it  cleared  np,  and  we  had  a  fine  daj,  and  reached  onr  destination  in  safety 
before  sunset.  The  next  day  proved  all  that  we  conld  wish — a  truly  lovely 
morning.  An  early  prayer  meeting  was  held,  to  supplicate  a  special  blessing 
cm  the  important  services  of  the  day.  Some  of  the  Native  Brethren  offo^ 
appropriate  prayers.  As  the  people  at  Dysselsdorp  were  aware  that  there 
would  be  a  far  greater  concourse  than  coidd  possibly  get  into  or  near  the 
chapel,  they  had  ccmstructed  a  kind  of  booth  under  the  trees  in  front  of  the 
Mission  House,  and  it  answered  the  purpose  exceedingly  well.  We  were 
shaded  from  the  sun  by  the  awning  above  us,  and  at  the  same  time,  the  sides 
being  open,  it  was  delightfully  cod.  Tha:^  were  about  1200  persons  present, 
including  many  of  the  respectable  residents  at  Oudtshoom  and  the  neighbour- 
ing farms. 

"  The  service  commenced  at  nine  o'clock,  wiUi  singing,  reading  of  the 
Scriptures,  and  prayer  by  Rev.  W.  Barber ;  the  Rev.  D.  Helm  delivered  an 
instructive  and  very  appropriate  address  to  the  Church  and  congregation ; 
the  usual  questions  were  put  to  the  young  minister  and  the  deacons  of  the 
church  by  the  Rev.  T.  Atkinson ;  and  the  replies  given  by  Mr.  Elliott  were 
highly  satisfactory.  After  the  ordination  prayer,  which  was  offered  by 
Mr.  Atkinson,  accompanied  by  the  laying  on  of  hands,  the  Rev.  B.  E. 
Anderson,  pastor  of  the  church  for  twenty-two  years,  gave  an  affectionate 
and  faithful  charge,  founded  on  Ezekiel  xxxiii.  7;  and  the  Rev.  D.  Helm 
concluded  with  prayer. 

*'  It  was  an  interesting  and  delightflil  service,  the  first  of  the  kind  ever 
attended  by  the  greater  number  of  those  who  were  present ;  and  to  those  of 
us  who  took  part  in  it,  there  was  the  remarkable  circumstance  that  aU^were 
the  iOHs  of  ministers  or  missionaries, 

"Having  dined  under  the  shade  of  the  trees  in  the  garden,  and  thus 
making  it  almost  literally  a  'feast  of  tabernacles,'  we  assembled  for  the 
afternoon  service,  when  the  newly-ordained  pastor  preached  a  sermon  appro- 
priate to  his  entrance  on  the  stated  duties  of  his  office,  firom  1  Cor.  ii.  16,  17. 
After  this  service  most  of  the  visitors  from  a  distance  returned  to  their 
homes,  but  there  were  still  more  than  enough  left  to  fill  the  chapel  in  the 
evening,  when  the  Rev.  B.  E.  Anderson  delivered  a  farewell  discourse  to  his 
former  flock,  from  Acts  xx.  32.  It  was  very  solemn  and  affecting,  and  our 
good  Brother  felt  much  at  parting  from  the  people.  After  the  sermon,  one 
of  the  deacons  thanked  Mr.  Anderson,  in  the  name  of  the  church,  for  aH  his 
labours  among  them  for  so  many  years,  and  handed  to  him  a  parting  gift, 
which  consisted  of  the  collections  made  during  the  day.  Mr.  Anderson 
concluded  with  a  very  earnest  prayer  for  the  people  and  their  newly-ordained 
pastor. 

"On  Saturday,  the  5th  inst.,  we  met  at  Oudtshoom,  for  the  annual 
gathering  and  communion  of  the  associated  Churches  of  Oudtshoom,  Dyss^- 
dorp,  Matjes  River,  Matjes  3>rifb,  and  Hope  Dale.    The  last  two  were  till

recentlj  under  the  care  of  our  departed  Brother,  Mr.  Hood,  but  sre  now  for  a 
tune  tinder  the  care  of  our  Brethren  Anderson  and  Elliott.  The  report 
haTing  been  read  bj  Mr.  Anderson,  the  meeting  was  addressed  by  Messrs. 
Atkinson,  Helm,  Barber,  and  others.  In  the  eyening  the  Rev.  S.  P.  Elliott 
preached  to  a  large  congregation.  On  the  following  Sabbath  morning  the 
Ber.  T.  Atkinson  preached  from  Isaiah  xzv.  9.  At  the  close  we  nnited  in 
cdebrating  the  Lord's  Sapper.  It  was  deeply  intereating  to  see  so  many 
rniifcJTig  in  this  holy  solemnity.  There  were  about  350  assembled  from  various 
churches;  most  of  them  had  been  called  to  the  fellowship  of  the  Grospel 
within  a  comparatively  few  years, — formerly  wandering  and  ready  to  perish 
in  the  wilderness,  but  now  brought  into  the  fold  of  Christ,  enjoying  the 
privileges  of  His  flock,  under  the  guardianship  of  the  Great  Shepherd  of  the 
sheep.  In  the  afternoon  our  Wesleyan  Brother,  Mr.  Barber,  preached  in 
English  for  the  Rev.  T.  Van  der  Kiet,  of  the  Dutch  Reformed  Church,  and 
gave  us  a  deUghtfiil  discourse ;  in  the  evening  Mr.  Helm  preached  from 
Acts  viiL  26,  &c.,  and  Mr.  Anderson  closed  with  a  short  address  and  prayer. 
The  chapel  was  crowded  to  excess,  especially  in  the  evening. 

«'  Being  anxious  that  my  flock  at  Facaltsdorp  should  have  a  share  in  these 
privileges,  I  availed  myself  of  the  assistance  of  our  Brethren  Barber  and 
Helm  on  their  way  home.  I  returned  on  the  Monday  to  make  the  necessary 
arrangements;  and  on  Tuesday  evening  these  Brethren  arrived,  and  also 
Mr.  Anderson,  who  kindly  came  to  assist  on  the  occasion.  Though  the 
notice  was  so  short,  and  many  of  our  men  were  absent  at  work,  we  had  a 
very  ^air  attendance.  A  short  report  of  the  state  of  the  Mission  was  read, 
and  the  congr^ation  was  addressed  by  the  Brethren  just  mentioned,  and  by 
some  of  our  Native  friends ;  and  I  trust  the  good  effects  of  this  meeting  will 
yet  be  manifest.  On  the  following  morning  our  friends  left  us,  and  proceeded 
cm  their  joum^  homewards,  except  Mr.  Anderson,  who  kindly  gave  us  anoth^ 
sermon  in  the  evening.  I  trust  that  some  good  impressions  were  produced 
by  his  faithful  and  earnest  labour  of  love.  This  closed  the  series  of  engage- 
ments, which  we  may  hope  were  profitable  to  many,  and  which  we  trust  will 
be  fdlowed  by  the  blessing  of  the  great  Head  of  the  Church. 

"  Entreating  for  myself  and  family,  my  Brethren  and  sisters  in  the  work, 
and  our  respective  congregations,  a  continued  interest  in  your  prayerful 
remembrances, 

"  I  remain,  my  dear  Sir,

CHKONICLE. 


MADAGASCAR. 


SnrcE  the  publication  of  our  last  number,  an  unusual  amount  of  intelligence 
has  reached  us  from  our  missionaries  in  ANXANAJirAsiYO,  from  which  we 
intend  to  give  brief  specimens  in  connection  with  the  several  departments  of 
nuBsionazy  operation.  Our  readers  will  thus  have  the  direct  testimony  of 
the  labourers  in  reference  to  their  own  peculiar  work.  We  need  hardly 
observe  that  they  have  difficulties — formidable  difficulties — ^with  which  to 
contend ;  yet,  reviewing  the  serious  events  which  have  occurred  since  their 
arrival,  these  difficulties  are  fewer  than  might  have  been  apprehended.  On 
the  other  hand,  their  encouragements  are  nmnerous  and  great : — ^the  govern- 
ment appears  to  be  established ;  they  enjoy  perfect  freedom  in  the  prosecution 
of  their  work ;  every  month  the  Churches  receive  numerous  additions,  and 
Hxe  congregations  generally  crowd  the  spacious  places  of  worship  in  which 
they  assemble.  Oar  missionary  Brethren  give  evidence  of  their  diligence  in 
the  acquisition  and  use  of  the  native  language ;  and  in  the  several  auxiliary 
departments  of  education,  the  press,  and  medical  practice,  every  man  is  busily 
and  successfrdly  employed.  "We  proceed  to  give  extracts  from  their  several 
reports: — 

EHCOUBAOIHO  8TATB  OF  THE  MISSION  OHTTBOHEB. 

**  With  regard  to  the  prospects  of  the  Mission  among  the  people,  nothing 
can  be  more  encouraging.  The  five  chapels  are  crowded  every  Sunday,  and 
two  more  are  in  course  of  erection.  Both  adults  and  children  are  eager  for 
knowledge,  and  there  is  perfect  liberty  of  action.  A  very  large  population  in 
villages  around  the  capital  are  ready  for  the  €k)8pel,  for  heathenism  here 
seems  never  to  have  had  that  all-absorbing  x>ower  and  influence  which  most 
systems  of  idolatry  have.  As  far  as  I  can  see,  there  is  little  to  be  displaced 
by  the  Gospel,  except  the  natural  enmity  of  the  hxunan  heart ;  and  I  believe 
it  is  welcomed  as  a  bright  revealer  of  certainties  in  place  of  the  shadowy 
v€iffueness  of  their  former  belief.

"The  Clmrcli  at  Analakely  being  without  a  European  superintendent," 
writes  Mr.  Pearse,  "  at  the  request  of  the  members  of  that  Church  I  have 
consented  to  occupy  that  position  for  a  time.  It  may  lead  to  my  remaining 
permanently ;  but,  till  I  know  more  of  the  language,  it  has  been  thought  best 
to  let  it  be  but  a  temporary  an-angement.  Here  the  field  of  usefulness  is 
large ;  but  at  present  all  that  I  can  do  is  to  read  the  Scriptures  and  announce 
the  hymns  at  om*  public  services,  and  consult  with  the  natiye  preachers  and 
deacons  on  matters  connected  with  tl»  Church. 

"  The  building  in  which  we  worship  will  hold  about  one  thousand  persons, 
and  is  usually  quite  fiill.  There  are  one  hundred  and  eighty  members  belong- 
ing to  the  Church,  and  at  our  Church  meeting  held  last  Wednesday  ten 
persons  were  proposed  for  membership.  For  these  tokens  that  the  work  of 
the  Lord  is  prospering  among  us  you  will  gladly  join  in  thanking  the  great 
Head  of  the  Church,  and,  with  your  thanksgiving,  will  join  with  your  distant 
Brethren  in  supplication  that  a  still  greater  measure  of  the  Spirit  may  be 
poured  out  on  Madagascar,  and  that  to  our  Churches  many  more  may  be 
added  of  such  as  shall  be  saved. 

"  The  building  in  which  we  worship  is  a  rude  structure  of  mud  and  rushes, 
and  would  doubtless  offend  the  eyes  of  many  in  England  who  are  accustomed 
to  worship  in  chapels  and  churches  upon  the  erection  of  which  skill  and  art 
have  been  bestowed ;  but  for  the  natives  of  Madagascar,  many  of  whom  live  in 
houses  erected  of  the  same  materials,  it  answers  very  weU,  although  I  shall 
hail  the  erection  of  a  more  substantial  building,  and  shaU  feel  that  during  this 
season  <^  the  year  I  am  in  less  danger  of  getting  a  sbower-badi  durmg  the 
hours  of  wordiip  than  I  am  under  th«  preaeDi  ra^r  poiovi  roo£ 

"  JOBEFH  FbAJUE." 

"  Jidditiona  are  still  made  to  our  Churches  of  such  ae  we  have  reason  to 
liope  are,  m  ihe  judgment  of  charity,  converted  to  Christ,  and  partakers  of 
spiritual  life,  though  that  life  be  but  feeble^  and,  in  some  of  its  manifestationB, 
obscure.  The  mjgority  of  those  from  without,  who  now  frequent  our  places  of 
worship  on  the  Sabbath  and  at  other  times,  are  many  of  them  such  as  have 
been  halting  between  two  opinions,  but  are  seeking  reasons  to  decide  for 
Christ,  coming  to  hear  and  ascertain  for  tJiemselves  what  Christianity  is ;  and 
though  the  greater  portion  of  these  may  as  yet  be  but  apparent  or  external 
adherents  to  ChristiaiLity,  they  come  wkhin  the  influence  of  the  Gospel,  and 
their  growing  numbers  render  not  only  our  hope  of  the  future  increase  ef  the 
Church  stronger,  but  the  improbability  of  persecution  for  Christ's  sake  greater 
every  day. 

"  The  country  remains  quiet,  the  Government  is  apparently  becoming  settled, 
and  no  relaxation  on  the  part  of  the  Sovereign  and  others  in  visible  devoted- 
ness  to  the  idols  is  manifest.  No  impediment  is  offered  or  allowed  to  the  per- 
fectly free  action  of  the  Christians,  alike  in  the  enjoyment  of  their  own  privi- 
leges, and  their  efforts  to  extend  the  Gospel  to  others..

officers  of  ihe  palace  wearing  their  pink  ribbons,  as  well  as  others  of  lower 
rank,  mingled  with  pastors,  preachers,  and  deacons,  followed  by  the  whole 
bodj  of  the  Christians,  the  men  walking  first  and  the  women  afterwards. 
Joining  with  them,  we  led  the  way  to  the  palace,  the  general  residence  of  the 
Queen.  Here  the  Christians  filled  eyery  ayailable  spot  of  ground  in  front  of 
the  balustrade  within  which  the  royal  seat  was  placed.  The  members  of  the 
royal  family  and  officers  were  ranged  on  the  left ;  the  ladies  in  waiting,  the 
ministers  and  members  of  the  €k>Temment,  on  the  right.  When  the  Queen* 
who  looked  remarkably  well,  came  out  of  the  palace,  she  was  welcomed  with 
hearty  greetings  from  the  vast  assembly.  As  these  subsided,  several  parties 
of  singers  sang  what  may  be  termed  the  National  Anthem,  and  a  hymn  im- 
ploring the  Divine  blessing  on  the  Queen.  An  officer  then  advanced  a  little 
in  front  of  the  rest,  tendered  the  salutations  of  the  Christians  to  her  Majesty, 
and  presented  the  customary  hasina,  which  the  Queen  very  cheerfully  ac- 
knowledged. The  choirs  belonging  to  the  several  city  congregations  afterwards 
sang  with  good  effect  several  hymns  and  anthems.  Bainimamoi^isoa,  an 
intelligent,  gifted,  and  influential  officer,  also  an  aide-de-camp  to  the  Prime 
Hinister,  then  stood  forward,  and,  in  the  name  of  his  fellow-Christians, 
addressed  the  Queen  with  much  readiness  and  force,  assuring  her  Majesty  of 
their  loyalty  and  gratitude  for  their  privil^^,  of  their  devotedness  to  the 
GhTvemment,  and  earnest  desires  to  promote  the  welfare  of  all  classes.  The 
Queen  made  a  short  and  approving  reply,  and  by  gestures  as  well  as  words 
assured  the  vast  assembly  of  the  satisfaction  which  their  presence  and  the 
declaration  of  their  attachment  had  afforded.  The  high  officers  and  other 
members  of  the  Court  seemed  surprised  and  pleased  with  the  singiug  of  the 
Christiaiis;  and  after  the  latter  had  again  sung  the  National  Anthem, 
her  Majesty  rose,  and  re-entered  the  palace  about  twelve  o'clock,  amidst 
the  cordial  greetings  of  the  multitude,  who  then  returned  to  their  respective 
homes.

B8TABLI8HHENT  OF  SCHOOLS. 

"  I  will  now  supply  you,"  writes  Mr.  Stagg,  "  with  a  brief  account  respect- 
ing my  own  particular  sphere  of  labour — ^the  cause  of  education,  and  my 
hopes  and  fears  respecting  it.  I  would  have  written  more  fully  to  you 
previously,  but  I  deferred  doing  so  till  I  could  actually  tell  you  I  was  in  fall 
operation,  and  striving  to  accomplish  as  far  as  possible  the  work  intrusted 
to  me  by  the  Directors. 

"  The  erection  of  the  building  took  much  longer  than  we  had  anticipated, 
and  the  difficulties  that  arose  during  its  erection  we  could  not  foresee. 

"  It  was  commenced  just  before  the  Revolution,  so  at  the  very  outset  the 
progress  of  the  work  was  stayed  for  several  weeks;  then,  again,  I  had 
much  trouble  in  getting  suitable  men ;  but  at  last  aU  these  difficulties  were 
overcome,  and  the  building  was  completed,  giving  satisfeu^on  to  all  of 
us,  and  much  pleasure  to  the  natives,  who  were  glad  once  more  to  have  a 
school  in  which  their  children  might  be  educated  under  the  guidance  of  a 
missionary. 

**  The  cost  of  the  building  is  about  £120,  which  includes  the  furniture,  such  as 


FOE  APML,  1864.  77 

desks,  forms,  &c.  Hie  sum  is  more  than  we  anticipated ;  but  we  felt  our 
£ri«nds  in  England  would  wish  us  to  have  a  building  that  should  be  in  every 
respect  suitable  for  the  education  of  the  young,  and  also  the  training  of 
teachers. 

**  I  am  glad  to  say  we  haye  the  school  now  in  full  operation.  At  first  I 
rather  feared  as  to  the  result,  for  we  had  other  schools  already  at  work,  and 
some  of  them  were  well  attended :  we  had  no  wish  to  make  either  of  the 
existing  schools  suffer,  but  rather  to  obtain  children  who  were  not  receiying 
any  education. 

"Then,  again,  the  Catholic  missionaries  had  commenced  operations  some 
eighteen  months,  having  all  the  field  open  before  them ;  and  we  knew  they 
had  been  very  persevering  in  their  endeavours  to  insure  the  attendance  of 
the  children  of  all  classes,  in  which  they  [had  succeeded  to  some  extent.  We 
cannot  but  commend  their  zeal,  which  has  been  unremitting.  I  believe  they 
have  now  seven  Catholic  priests,  and  three  sisters,  who  devote  much  of  their 
time  to  the  education  of  the  young.  They  assert  that  we  have  all  the  adults 
and  they  all  the  children.  Now  whilst  it  is  true  we  have  all  the  adults,  it  is 
not  true  that  they  have  all  the  children. 

«<  Our  regular  attendance  is  about  150.  Of  that  number  there  are  about  50 
girls:  the  rest  are  boys.  Hie  school  is  large  enough  to  accommodate  200.  There 
has  been  a  gradual  increase  since  it  was  first  opened.  The  children  belong 
to  all  classes  of  the  community,  from  the  Prime  Minister's  son  to  the  very 
poorest.  It  is  purely  a  Mission  School.  We  exclude  none:  we  admit  all, whether 
thor  parents  are  Okrisitaiiromat.  On  the  whole  I  have  found  the  attendance 
of  the  children  very  regular,  and  their  progress  satisfactory.  They  seem  very 
desirous  to  acquire  knowledge,  and  willingly  do  any  amount  of  work  required 
of  them.  Of  course  we  do  not  expect  much  from  them  at  present,  but  their 
capacities  are  quite  equal  to  children  in  our  ordinary  British  schools. 

**  Thinking  it  may  be  interesting,  I  will  just  give  a  sketch  of  our  ordinary 
school  work.  We  commence  by  praise  and  prayer,  and  then  I  often  give  a 
Bible  lesson ;  we  then  take  the  ordinary  school  lessons  of  reading,  writing, 
spelling,  and  arithmetic.  I  have  also  given  them  a  few  lessons  in  the 
geography  of  the  world,  and  also  some  bearing  more  particularly  upon  the 
land  where  our  Saviour  lived,  laboured,  and  died.  We  use  a  Scripture  Cate- 
chism likewise,  which  our  friend  Mr.  Parrett  has  reprinted  fr'om  a  copy  which 
was  in  use  here  many  years  ago.  I  wish  we  had  some  good  school-books  in 
the  langui^.  There  are  many  little  treatises  we  should  find  most  useful; 
but  of  course  to  give  them  to  the  people  in  their  own  language  must  be  a  work 
of  time. 

"  In  accordance  with  the  wish  of  the  Directors  I  have  endeavoiired  to  get 
together  some  young  men  desirous  of  acquiring  the  knowledge  of  teaching 
and  who  would  be  also  ready,  alter  going  through  a  course  of  study,  to  go  to 
the  surrounding  towns  and  villages  to  become  the  teachers  of  the  rising  gene- 
ration in  this  large  and  important  part  of  Madagascar. 

**  In  this  department  of  my  labours  I  have  succeeded  in  obtaining  several 
young  men,  who  daily  practise  in  the  school,  and  to  whom  I  give  some  time 
every  day  in  those  subjects  which  I  consider  will  be  useful  to  them  in  their 
fotore  spheres.    I  wish  I  could  give  far  more  time  to  them ;  but  we  must  do

OPEEATIONS  OP  THE  PEE8S. 

"  Since  I  oommeuced  with  the  Press  in  the  middle  of  April,"  writes  Mr- 
Parrett^  "  I  have  printed  a  Catechism  of  32  pages,  and  another  of  38  pages, 
1000  copies  of  each,  which  have  nearly  all  been  ^old.  I  have  also  printed  a 
set  of  6  School  Lessons,  200  of  each ;  some  small  matters  for  the  Dispensary, 
and  have  nearly  finished  Russell's  Catechism  of  200  pages.  I  do  not  think 
that  I  have  done  much,  but  as  this  has  been  my  starting  year,  I  look  upon  it 
as  something  done.  I  have  also  three  assistants,  one  pressman,  and  two 
compositors,  and  intend  shortly  to  get  three  more,  as  I  am  likely  to  have 
plenty  of  work,  for  which  I  am  very  glad. 

"  In  coiy  unction  with  Mr.  Cousins  I  started  a  day  school  at  the  chapel  at 
Amparib^  some  six  months  since.  This  has  prospered;  at  present  there  are 
eighty  scholars,  and  a  master  and  mistress.  Tha  teachers  are  supported 
principally  by  us,  but  the  children  all  pay  a  trifle  monthly.  We  also  com- 
menced a  Sunday  school  in  connection  with  the  chapel,  of  which  I  took  the 
management  The  average  attendance  of  children  is  seventy  to  eighty;  and 
tbere  is  also  a  womens'  Bible  class  in  connection  with  the  school,  with  some 
thirty  or  forty  members.  Sometimes,  too,  we  manage  to  get  a  mens*  Bible 
class,  but  not  often.  In  addition  to  these,  I  often  form  a  class  of  the  slave 
boys  and  girls  who  hang  about  the  cliapel  during  service  time ;  so  that,  from 
one  source  and  another,  I  obtain  140  to  150  attendants  at  the  Sabbath  school^ 
fi^ch  is  a  very  fair  beginning.

with  a  view  of  submitting  to  our  (Government  some  modifications  in  the  treaty

Foreign  Affidrs;  and  by  her  Majesty  the  Queen,  the  Prince  of  Wales,  and 
several  members  of  the  nobility  and  of  the  legislature.

a  disturbance   against  the  native  (Catholic)  Christians,  killed  many,  and 
destroyed  property  worth  400,000  taels.     He  has  demanded  satisfaction,  and 
the  local  authorities  are  to  pay  the  money.    He  says  that  almost  ^very  week 
he  is  applied  to  under  similar  circumstances ;  that  the  feeling  is  not  so  much 
against  Christianity,  as  against  foreigners,  and  against  the  native  Christians

by  tidings  of  success  in  our  missionary  work,  I  am  happy  to  be  able  to.  report 
the  baptism  of  another  young  Brahmin. 

EAELY  TBAINOJG  OF  THE  CONVERT. 

"  Shoshy  Bhushen  MuEElurBit  i*«fiwenteen  years  of  age.  By  the  example 
of  his  father  and  mother  he  became  an  idolater ;  though,  like  the  majority  of 
the  youths  in  and  near  Caljcutto,.  he  had.  but  little  faith  in  idolatry.  Still  he 
repeated  his  mantra,  worshipped  the  gpd»  aiMl  goddesses^  S^  Duxga, 
Mr^yan,  Shib,  Hari,  Lakhmi,  and  others,  and  occasionally  made  offerings 
at  the  temple  of  K&li,  and  besmeared  his  body  with  mud  in  honour  of  Hari. 

"  About  eight  years  ago  he  entered  the*  Government  school  at  Howrah,  and 
read  there  until  the  olose  of  1861.  lb  Jluntaiiy,  Id^,  be  entered  our  Mission 
School  at  Behala,  and  read  there  throughout  that  year.  In  the  Behala  School 
he  had  to  read  the  Bible  azid  ihe  Eyidences  of  Ohristianity  ae  claBs-bodcB, 
and, he  soon  felt  i^t  Hindooism  was  false  and,  ChxiBtiaait)'i  taiie.  As  the 
truth  entered  his  mind  he  j6alt  anxious  to  giire up  idolatry,  whiohJie  did*  ezce^t 
on  public  occasions,  when  he  was  compelled  to  bow  before  the  image*.

"^n  January  1868'  he  entered'  the-  Free  Church  Institution  iii  C^utta, 
where  he  also  ha<J  to  read  Ute  Bible  in  class.  X7nder-the  teaching  of  the  mis- 
sionaries of  the  Free  Church  Bis  convictions  deepened  and- strengthened,  and' 
in  IffiEirch,  186S,  he  came  to  me  at-Bhowaniporcdedarin^hiswish  to  be  Baptizedi 
I  advised  him  to  wait  some  montiis,  and'  promised'  iir  tfee  meantime  to  givo^ 
him  religious  instruction.  On  his  determination  becoming  known  to  relatives 
and' neighbours,  there  was  a  great  commotion  ;•  many  scholars  were  removed^ 
from  the  Behala  School,  and  he  was  immediately  taken  awajrfinm  t&e'  Free 
Church  Institution  and  sent  to  the  Calcutta  €<!>lloge,  an  institution  esta* 
blished  by  the  Deists.  He  was  beaten  and  threatened^  but  nothing  shook  his 
resolution.  Ih  hia  sharpest  trials  he  declared  hihaself  a  Christian,  and  called* 
on  Christ  for  hel^.  As  opportunity  offlered  through  the  year,  he  sought  in* 
struction  from  Surjyo  Baboo,  myself,  and  others;  and  when  difficulties  were 
suggested  by  the  Deists,  or  when  atheistical  books  were  given  hiin  to  read, 
he  always  sought  help  from  one  or  other  of  his  Christian  teachers:  Twice 
during  the  year  he  threw  off  his  ^-poiia/  the  Bi-ahmins^' sacred' thread,  and 
declared  that  he  would  not  wear  the  sign  of  a  ftilse  religion.  The  fit*st  time 
he  remained  without  it  about  a  fortnight,  but  put  it  on  again  at  the  solicita- 
tions of  his  relatives.  The  second  time  he  was  without  it  fbr  two  months, 
and  refused  to  put  it  on  until  they  beet  him,  and  then  he  yiijldedt  His  fiither 
asked  him,  *  Do  you  wish  to  remain  at  my  house  ?*  saying,  *  If  so,  the  "poita  "^ 
is  my  religion,  and  you  must- wear  it.' 

HIS  BAPTISM. 

"  He  came  to  me  on  Friday  last,  and  said  that  he  wished  to  be  baptized 
without  further  delay.    Both  Dr.  Mullens  and  I  felteatiafiedathisiknowledge

ABBIYAL  IN  THE  MATBBBLX   COUNT&T. 

"  It  is  the  coBtom  to  annomice  to  MoselekatBe  the  arriyal  at  his  oa<^K>8t8  of 
any  strangers  or  travellers.  Accordingly,  on  the  Monday  after  our  arriyal  at 
the  Batalaonta,  three  men  were  despatched  to  inform  Moselekatse  of  the 
return  of  Mr.  John  Moffat,  accompanied  by  another  missionary,  who  had  come 
to  see  the  king  and  his  friends  the  milBsionaries  at  Inyati.  We  fonnd  that 
great  stress  was  laid  by  the  Batalaonta  on  the  fa<st  that  I  had  been  at  Sekomi's 
dnring  the  late  war — ^in  fact,  that  I  was  to  be  '  announced '  to  the  king  as 
'  Sekomi's  missionary.'  While  not  caxing  to  hide  my  connection  with  the 
Bamangwato,  I  ^ideavonred  to  impress  on  their  minds  that  I  had  been  only 
one  year  at  Sekomi's ;  that  I  had  come  from  Engknd  at  the  same  time  as  the 
Matebele  missionaries,  and  that  I  waa  one  with  them  in  entire  neutrality  in 
all  political  matters.  I  learned  afterwards,  however,  that  my  explanations  were 
given  in  vain — all  that  reached  the  ear  of  the  chief  being  that  Yonie  (Mr. 
Moffat)  was  coming,  accompanied  by  Sekomi's  missionary. 

«  Taking  it  for  granted  that  Moselekatse  would  admit  us,  we  did  not  wait 
at  Mahuku's  for  an  answer,  as  is'sometimes  done,  but  slowly  followed  in  the 
rear  of  our  messengers.  After  passing  through  in  this  way  the  beautiful 
Makalaka  countiy,  as  it  is  called,  we  entered  the  Matebele  territory  proper^ 
now  having  as  escort,  or  spy,  a  Uckaga,  or  warrior,  whose  train  was  on  the 
road. 

NEGOTIATIONS  WITH  M0SBLEK1T8B. 

"  The  messengers  from  Moselekatse  met  us  one  morning,  before  we  had 
inspanned,  near  to  Boherehere  river.  After  saluting  us,  the  principal  man 
began  to  give  us  the  '  mouth  '  of  the  king.  First  of  all  came  a  great  number 
of  questions  concerning  myself,  summed  up  by '  The  king  wishes  to  know 
what  you  want  in  his  countiy  P'  After  being  catechised  for  some  time  in 
this  manner,  the  messenger  began,  not  without  some  conftision,  to  deliver  the 
decision  of  his  master.  It  was  astoimding,  after  having  answered  so  many 
questions,  put  by  order  of  Moselekatse,  to  be  given  to  understand  that  the 
king  had  already  made  up  his  mind,  and  that  I  was  commanded  to  return; 
that  the  king  did  not  wish  to  see  me.  On  inquiring  into  the  use  and  wont  of 
the  thing,  Mr.  Moffat  informed  me  that  it  was  quite  customary  to  examine 
people  in  this  way,  and  yet,  no  matter  what  their  answers  might  be,  wind  up 
the  conversation  summarily  by  announcing  the  previously  formed  decision  of 
the  chief.  My  friends  were  further  of  opinion  that,  although  my  position  was 
not  altogether  hopeless  as  to  obtaining  admission  into  the  country,  yet  it  was, 
nevertheless,  nearly  so,  inasmuch  as  Moselekatse  was  veiy  seldom  known  to 
change  his  mind.  Although  I  might  have  returned  at  once,  having  ascertained 
that  the  missionary  friends  at  Inyati  were  all  in  good  health,  I  confess  I  felt 
a  strong  disinclination  to  do  so.  In  the  first  place,  I  did  not  like  the  indignity 
of  being  sent  about  one's  business  in  so  summaiy  a  manner ;  but,  above  that, 
I  felt  it  would  tend  to  enhance  our  character  amongst  the  natives,  who  are  all 
suspicious,  were  missionaries  able  to  pass  over  at  pleasure  from  one  contend- 
ing party  to  another. 

"  We  were  given  to  understand,  on  inquiry,  that  one  of  the  men  was  to 
return  to  the  king  with  our  explanations;  so  Mr.  Moffat  and  myself  set  our- 
selves to  the  task  of  explaining  to  him  our  views  and  plans,  in  so  fiur  as  we 


FOB  APIUL^  1864*  85 

deemed  necessajry — ^reiterating  the  salient  pointa,  so  as  to  impress  them  on 
liis  mind.  We  fonnd  the  messengers  Yery  respectful  and  well  disposed — 
indeed,  we  oould  understand  that  it  was  their  wish  that  I  should  be  admitted. 
Ifr.  ICoffat  was  struck  with  the  improvement  for  the  better,  which  had  taken 
place  during  his  absence,  in  the  outward  behaviour  of  the  Matebele.  In  the 
course  of  our  conversation,  we  learned  some  of  the  remarks  which  had  fEillen  from 
the  old  chief  when  he  heard  that  '  Sekomi's  teacher  was  coming.'  Pointing 
to  some  cows  in  his  cattle-pen,  which  had  been  stolen  from  the  Bamangwato, 
Moeelekatse  jocularly  called'  to  his  attendants  to  hasten  and  nulk  some  of 
Sekomi's  cows  for  Sekomi's  missionary, '  for  he  must  be  hungry  after  so  long 
a  journey.'  '  Why,  if  I  admit  this  man,  he  will  see  eveiything  in  the  countiy, 
and  then  return  and  inform  Sekomi.'  '  Well,  really,'  said  a  puzzled  wife, 
sitting  near, '  what  crimes  do  these  white  men  commit,  which  cause  them  to 
flee  from  their  own  country  in  this  way  P' 

"  Being  without  water  at  the  place  where  we  received  the  king's  message, 
Mr.  Moffat  suggested  that  we  go  forward,  and  wait  at  the  first  water  for  the 
final  decision.  To  this  the  machaga  agreed,  although  with  reluctance,  being 
evidently  unwilling  to  allow  me  to  advance  without  the  king's  consent.  As  to 
Mr.  Moffat,  they  said  it  was^understood  that  he  would  proceed  at  once,  inas- 
much as  he  was  '  going  home ;'  but  Mr.  Moffat  declining  to  do  so,  we  spent 
the  interval  together  at  the  river  Kumalo. 

"  On  Friday  afternoon  the  messenger  returned  from  the  king,  his  feet  and 
l^s  covered  with  dust,  but  with  a  smOing  countenance.  Moselekatse's  answer 
now  was,  that '  I  was  to  come  on;  but  where  was  my  present  to  him,  and  that 
of  Mr.  J.  Moffat  P  He  had  not  seen  them.'  We  reached  the  camp  of  Mosele- 
katse  on  Monday  afternoon,  but  did  not  see  the  king  till  next  morning.  He 
was  not  living  in  a  town,  but  at  the  foot  of  a  mountain  not  far  from  a  village 
called  Seeenteve.  His  four  waggons  were  drawn  up  near  to  each  other; 
behind  these  were  the  temporaiy  huts  of  his  harem  and  servants,  closed  in  by 
a  hedge  of  thorn  branches;  and  in  front  a  large  pen  for  cattle,  and  another 
for  sheep  and  goats.  Such  were  the  *  quarters '  in  which  we  found  the  king 
of  tbe  Matebele,  and  thus  he  spends  the  greater  portion  of  the  year.  As  in 
other  things,  his  movements  seem  to  be  guided  by  caprice.  After  living  for 
some  time  at  a  place,  suddenly  the  order  is  issued  to  pack  the  waggons  and 
yoke  the  oxen,  and  before  all  the  attendants  know  whither  they  are  going,  the 
waggons  are  moving,  and  the  temporaiy  huts  left  in  a  blaze. 

EBCBPTION  BY  THE   CHIBF. 

"  And  now  for  my  reception  by  Moselekatse.  After  passing  the  little  huts 
and  the  waggons,  we  were  shown  into  the  sheep-pen,  at  the  door  of  which  sat 
a  number  of  tnachaga,  A  fire  had  been  placed  in  the  middle  of  the  pen,  and 
near  to  this,  seated  in  an  old-fashioned  arm-chair,  the  gift  of  Mr.  Moffat,  sat 
Moselekatse.  As  we  advanced,  we  got  each  a  warm  and  rather  lengthy  shake 
of  the  hand,  the  attendants  shouting  lustily, '  Great  King,' '  Man-eater,'  &c. 
On*  taking  our  places  on  the  ground,  opposite  the  arm-chair,  we  had  a  frOl 
view  of  the  object  of  this  praise,  and  saw  an  old,  frtul  man — so  frail  that  he  has 
to  be  carried  about  by  his  wives,  and  whose  only  clothing  then  consisted  of 
an  English  blanket  brought  loosely  round  his  loins,  and  a  naval  officer's  cap

flit  across  them  which  help  n»  to  reaiioe  that  we  are  in  the  presence  of  one 
who  coxdd  listen  nnmored  to  the  voice  of  justice  or  msDOj.  No  notice  was 
taken  of  the  two  great-ooats  which  we  had  sent  on  the  previbns  dagir,  bnt  im«> 
mediate  application  was  made  f6r  additional '  help/  as  the  Matebele  cxpross 
it.  However,  our  reception,  on  the  whole,  was  graoions  enough  as  things  gp , 
here.  H«  seemed  to  lose  sight  of  my  connection  with  Sekomi,  and  reoogmsed' 
me  as  a  missionarj  from  Esmman  or  England,  the  difllbrence  or  distance 
between  these  places  not  being  very  dearly  nnderstood>  by  the  Mutebele. 

SAYAGS   WABFABE   OF   THE    MATEBSLE. 

"  Not  having  an  opportanity  of  speaking  to  the  king  in  private,  I  resolved 
to  postpone  the  introdnction  of  the  subject  of  the  war  with  Sekomi ;  for  any 
public  criticism  of  his  policy  would  not  be  at  all  calculated,  to  produce  bene- 
ficial results.  Moselekatae  has  been  noted  for  the  hospitable  custom  of  de- 
taining visitors  long  after  the  time  when  ihey  desire  to  depart.  But,  lung*. 
sickn^S' having  considerably  diminished  the  quantity  of  beef  at  his  disposal 
visitDrs  are  no  longec  guests,  fed  at  the  king's  expense ;  and  in  our  own  case, 
after  a  stay  of  two  days,  the  chiefs  politely  expressed  reluctance  at  our  de- 
pautnie  was  fully  met  by  the  promise  of  an  early  visit  after  we  had  seen  our 
friends  ail  Iigrati,  "V^  hoped  then  to  have  an  opportrmity  of  speaking  to  the 
king  on  the  subject  of  the  war  with  the  Bamangwato ;  but  we  could  not 
reasonably  hope  for  much  success,  inasmuch  as  no  one  has  ever  succeeded  in 
peoBuading  Moselekatse  to  give  up  hij»  warlike  pursuits.  Xt  was  at  one  time 
fondly  imagined  that  such  a  result  had  been  obtained ;  but  a  very  short  re- 
sidence in  the  country  convinced  our  Brethren  that  this  belief  was  altogether 
unfounded.  Since  your  missionaries  came  into  this  country,  only  on^e  year 
has  passed  unmarked  by.  the  'departure  of  the  Matebele  forces  against  the 
nfttive  tribes  to  the  Bast,  North-east,  and  North ;  and  during  that  exceptional 
year,  if  they  were  not  <m^^ed  in  a  foreign  war,  the  Matebele  were  occupied 
in  slaughtering  one  another.  Interest  was  brought  to  bear  with  the  king 
against  Monyebe,  the  greatest  friend  of  the  missionaries,  and  most  powerftil 
man,  next  to  the  chief,  in  the  country.  He  was  accused  of  witchcraft,  and 
put  to  deaih  with  all  his  house.  Such  being  the  past  history  of  the  Matebele, 
even  since  their  connection  with  missionaries,  we  could  not  be  very  sanguine 
as  to  the  result  of  our  efforts  to  deter  the  king  from  prosecuting  the  war  with 
the  Bamangwato..    However,  we  resolved  to  do  oiur  best. 

MSEXSSia  WISH   OLD   F&lBlfDa. 

'^We  reached  Inyati  on  Saturday,  29th  August,  when  we  had  the  pleascore 
of  meeting  wilh  our  dear  friends  Mr.  Thomas,  and  Mr.  and  Mrs.  Sykes.  This 
X^eaeure,  however,  had  its  sad  alloy  in  the  absence  oi  Mrs.  Thomas.  All  we 
could  see  of  hw,  except  in  the  features  of  her  two  little  boys,  was  her  grore.

taatify  to  the  change  which  is  gradually  taking  place  in  the  mindb  of  the 
l&tebele  towards  missionaries.  Received  four  years  ago  with  the  utmost 
suspicion,  they  are  now  trusted  throughout  the  country,  but  more  especiaDy 
mihe  ncighbouriiood  of^Inyati,  where  they^are  best  known.  The  overbearing 
lumglrianess  with  which  they  were  at  first  treated  by  all  classes,  and  the  brow- 
beaiting  and  rudeness  which  they  had  to  submit  to  from  many,  have  now  given 
pfiice  in;  most  oases  to  respect.  T  have  had  an  opportunity  of  visiting  the 
three  out-stations  in  connection  with  Inyati,  which  the  Brethren  visit  weekly 
for  the  purpose  of  preaching  the  Gospel  to  the  people.  The  whole  population 
which  thus  comes  under  the  constant  influence  of  missionari'es  is  some  700  or 
800,  while  of  these  about  KO  constitute  the  number  of  hearei*s  at  the  fi)ur 
stations  on  any  given  week.  Repeated  attempts  have  been  made  in  the  way 
of  teaching  the  young,  but  hitherto  without  success.  Learning  to  read  seems 
to  be  regarded  by  the  people  with  fear ;  they  are  not  sure  how  Moselekatse 
would  regard  such  a  movement.  The  work  of  your  agents,  therefore,  has  hitherto 
bten,  ta>ai  groai-  eKtenfc,  ofi  a  preparatory  nature.  They  have  had  to  eradicate 
many  weeds*  slowdy  and  patiently,  beft>re  they,  could  sow  the  good  seed  of  tiie 
Gospel.  However,,  the  Word  of  Qod  cannot  now  be  said  to  be*  bound '"in 
3&tebele  Land;  it  is^  preached  regularly,  asd  in  the  language  of  the  country: 
And,  joflt  a»  the  life  and  ooiwera«tion  of  the  missionaries  slowly  disarmed  the 
people  of  suapiisiiQin  and  diaLike^  so  the  'little  loaveiL'  of  heavenly  truth,  now 
being  introduced  into  thair  minda#  caxmot  possibly  remain  long  inert  and  un- 
observable.  The  evil,  however,  is  emphatically  a  bad  one.  The  training  of  the 
Matebele^  tdraor  hahits  of-  plunder  and:  bk>odshed,  and  their  social  usages, 
all  ccanbine  in  direot  oppoaU^iont  to  the>  requirements  of  ChristiiEuiity.  Your 
agents  are  laboivrijag  amongst  a  population,  l^e  male  portion  of  which  has 
been  gathered .frouLall^  tribes;  knows  little  or  nothing  of  home  or  kindred ; 
hves  in  barracks;  robs  and  slaughters  at  least  once  every  yearj  without 
refarence  to  sex.  or  age ;.  and  knows  no  law  but  that  of  the  king;  The  females 
are  also  the  children  oT  nearly  all  the  surrounding  tribes,  and,  as  sulgecta  of 
the  Gospel,  are  as  unpromising  as  the  men,  if  not  more  so.  These  things  are 
mentioned  for  the- purpose  of  showing  that  the  difficidties  of  the  field  are  of  no 
ordinary  description ;  and  that,  considering  the  anwunt  of  opposition  and

QUESTION   AS  TO   THE   OOHPABATIYE   CLAIMS   OF  THE   MATEBBLE  AND 
BAMANOWATO   MISSIONS. 

*'  When  I  left  Bamangwato,  I  promised  Mr.  Price  to  return  in  the  course 
of  the  summer,  provided  Mr.  and  Mrs.  Sykes  were  in  such  health  as  to  enable 
them  to  carry  on  the  duties  of  this  station,  in  conjunction  with  Mr.  and  Mrs. 
Moffat.  It  was  understood  that  only  one  inducement  ought  to  detain  me  in 
thecoimtry — ^the  permission  of  Moselekatse  to  occupy  a  new  district  as  afield 
of  missionary  labour.  While  my  oxen  are  resting,  I  shall  endeavour  to  find 
out  the  views  of  some  of  the  head  men  on  this  subject ;  and  should  I  find  that 
they  are  decidedly  opposed  to  the  establishment  of  a  s^arate  station,  I  shall 
not  make  the  request  formally  of  the  king.  Should  I  meet  with  encourage- 
ment, however,  and  in  the  end  obtain  from  the  king  a  suitable  place  for  a 
new  station,  I  think  the  Directors  will  agree  with  my  Brethren  here,  and 
with  myself,  that  it  would  be  of  importance  not  to  neglect  such  an  opening. 
At  the  same  time,  rather  than  attempt  to  force  the  matter,  and  rather  than 
wait  on,  doing  next  to  nothing,  in  the  hope  that  a  more  favourable  time  may 
come,  I  conceive  it  will  be  my  duty  to  return  to  the  Bamangwato,  which  is 
at  any  rate  a  riper  field  than  the  Matebele  country,  and  where  I  can  resume 
direct  and  encouraging  labours,  which  were  interrupted  by  the  present 
journey. 

**I  remain, 

**Ever  yours  truly,

AHHIVEBSABT  OF  THE  LONDON  HISSIONABT  SOCIEIT. 

SEVENTIETH  GENEBAL  MEETING. 

On  the  near  completion  of  the  Seventh  Decade  of  the  Society's  history,  we- 
cannot  but  be  forcibly  impressed  by  the  wonderful  changes  that  have  trans- 
pired since  it  commenced  its  labours.  At  the  close  of  the  last  century,  the 
Kissionary  Enterprise  was  yet  in  its  infancy,  and  the  few  devoted  men  whose 
zeal  prompted  them  to  go  forth  to  the  heathen  were  met  by  the  taunts  and 
opposition  of  an  unbelieving  world,  and,  in  too  many  instances,  by  the  faint 
and  unsympathizing  commendations  of  professed  Christians.  But  now  the 
state  of  things  is  happily  reversed ;  governments  have  become  friendly  to  the 
cause  of  Missions ;  sceptics  have  been  confounded  by  the  spectacle  of  numerous 
tribes  of  men  converted  and  civilized  by  means  of  the  Gospel;  and  the 
Christian  Churches,  aroused  from  their  lethargy,  have  sent  forth  from  their 
midst  hundreds  of  the  messengers  of  mercy  to  heathen  lands.  And,  while 
thus  .imparting  light  and  life  to  the  souls  of  others,  these  Churches  have  been 
amply  compensated  by  the  showers  of  blessing  that  have  descended  upon 
their  own  fair  heritage. 

The  record  of  the  Society's  operations  during  the  past  year  in  India,  in 
China,  in  Madagascar,  and  in  other  parts  of  the  heathen  world,  as  detailed  in 
the  following  pages,  cannot  fail  to  interest  and  gratify  every  thoughtful  and 
benevolent  reader.  The  various  meetings  and  services  peculiar  to  our  time- 
honoured  festival  have  been  very  numerously  attended,  and  on  no  former 
occasion  have  the  friends  and  supporters  of  the  Society  evinced  a  more  lively 
and  intelligent  interest  in  the  cause  of  Missions,  or  a  deeper  sense  of  their 
obligation  to  help  it  forward  by  their  prayers,  their  ^orta^  ^^^^^J^^^^"

The  CmAiuuAft  said, — Ladies  and  Gentlemen,  I  beg  to  assure  yon  that  I  am  deeply 
sensflile  of  the  hoaoor  which  you  hava  conferred  npoa  me  by  placing  me  in  the  chair  on  the

procee&ngs  in  which  we  are  now  ahoot  to  be  engaged,  as  well  as  the  responsibility  of  every 
persoB  who  joins  in  them.  Fortunately  the  weric  m,  which  this  great  Society  is  occupied 
d^>ends  in  no  degree,  or,  at  all  events,  only  in  a  very  small  one,  upon  anything  that  the 
Cbairmsn  may  utter  at  an  Anniversary  Mealiag ;  and  I  am  glad  of  it,  because  the  duties 
which  are  issfosed  upon  the  chair,  a»d  which  I  shall  mom  attempt  to  discharge,  consist 
psrtly  in  making  a  few  obsenratians  preiatesy  to  the  great  businesa  which  lies  belbce  us  lor 
transafliina  That  business  is  to  learn  firora  the  Report  the  history  of  the  Sottet/s  doings 
daring  the  year  which  has  just  terminated.  I  have  had  the  advantage  of  seeing  that  doc«- 
ment;  bnt  I  can  asane  yen,  ladies  and  gentkmeni  and  I  can  also  assure  those  who  are  to 
eoBse  alter  me,  and  whose  duty  it  will  be  to  place  before  you  more  oonspiciously  the  facts 
Hurraied  in  that  dooumemt,  that  it  is  not  my  intention  to  allude  in  the  slightest  degree  to 
any  feature  of  the  Report.  Indeed,  I  tiiink  I  sbonkl  he  setting  a  very  bad  example  if  I  were 
to  eonmenee  by  doing  that  which  I  hope  wiU  not  be  done  in  the  course  of  this  Meeting—' 
namely,  trespassing  osi  the  province  of  snothcr  speaker*  I  venture,  with  great  humility,  to 
make  this  rtnwffc  a*  tiie  outset,  becaHse  if  that  nk»  wsie  observed  on  all  ooeasions  of  this 
nature,  the  charge  of  tedionsaess,  which  ia  aanistimes  made  againet  these  meetings,  would 
ham  BO  HMuidation  whatever.  Now  my  tiia«f  hks,  and  I  dare  say  years  else,  ladies  and

fai  this  hall  at  the  Annual  Meeting  ol  the  Laadsn  Missienary  Society.  Mine  travel  back  a 
Mttie  farther  than  that.  Now  that  I  find  mQpaelf,  humUe  iadivtdaal  as  I  am,  in  this  con- 
spieuoas  sitaation,  my  mind  travela  back  ta  the  time  when  by  your  faveor  I  oecapied  this 
post  before.  I  canaot  help  reeoUectatg  the  immease  crowd  that  assembled  oa  that  occa^

sphere  of  perpetual  danger,  he  ahonld  still  be  preserved  to  us  when  so  many  have  perished — 
the  name  of  Dr.  Livingstone  reminds  me  strongly  of  the  great  principles  on  which  this 
Society  is  based.  I  always  feel  when  I  come  to  an  Annual  Meeting  of  this  Society  that  I 
am  breathing  the  purest  religious  atmosphere  that  I  breathe  in  the  course  of  the  year. 
However  much  the  jarring  discord  of  religions  opinions  may  be  heard  elsewhere,  here  it  is 
left  behind,  here  it  is  hushed,  here  no  denominational  differences  can  enter.  I  believe  that 
the  only  question  that  is  asked  when  a  person  presents  himself  for  employment  under  the 
auspices  of  this  association  is  this — **  Do  you  believe  in  your  heart,  and  confess  with  your 
mouth,  that  the  Lord  Jesus  is  the  Son  of  God,  and  that  He  died  to  save  mankind  ?"  I 
believe  that  that  is  the  only  question  which  is  absolutely  necessary ;  and,  having  myself 
been  engaged  for  many  years  in  discussing  what  are  called  **  terms  of  subscription,*'  this  I 
will  say,  that  if  I  had  my  own  way — I  am  afraid  I  shall  not  have  it — ^those  are  the  only 
terms  of  subscription  which  I,  when  I  am  an  archbishop,  shall  venture  to  propose. 
Turning  again  to  Dr.  Livingstone,  let  me  ask  you  to  observe  how  your  adndrable  principle 
of  foundation  has  fructified  ?  how  through  Dr.  Livingstone  himself  it  has  touched  a  part 
which  probably  you  hardly  contemplated,  and  has  thus  conferred  a  benefit  upon  the  Mis- 
sionary cause,  which  certainly  I  did  not  myself  anticipate.  I  believe  that  the  predilectiona 
of  Dr.  Livingstone  are  rather  of  a  Presbjrterian  character.  But  did  he,  when  he  came  to 
England  to  stir  up  the  hearts  of  his  fellow-countrymen,  confine  himself  to  going  amongst 
those  who  agreed  precisely  and  dogmatically  on  every  point  with  himself?  Far  from  it ; 
he  went  to  the  two  great  Universities  of  Oxford  and  Cambridge,  to  preach  tole- 
ration and  impartiality  there.  And  see  what  good  that  did,  how  the  spirit  of  liberality 
was  stirred  up  in  those  two  great  Universities  to  which  we  must  all  look  up — I  am  sure 
all  present  do  so— with  respect.  A  Nonconformist  was,  at  the  period  to  which  I 
allude,  received  with  open  arms  by  both  Universities,  and  he  stirred  up  the  Missionary 
spirit  to  such  an  extent  that  it  was  really  quite  delightful  to  hear  or  read  the  speeches  that 
were  made,  and  to  observe  the  enthusiasm  that  was  evoked.  As  regards  the  Missions  which 
followed,  although  we  cannot  but  deeply  lament  the  failure  of  one  of  them,  with  which 
Dr.  Livingstone  himself  was  more  especially  connected,  yet  at  the  same  time  we  cannot  but 
thank  God  and  take  courage ;  ay,  and  let  me  add  that  we  ought  to  feel  grateful  to  the 
founders  of  the  London  Missionary  Society  for  the  liberal  principles  which  they  adopted, 
and  which  have  been  the  foundation  of  so'mnch  good.  Let  me  say  one  or  two  worda  more 
before  I  sit  down.  It  has  often  been  asked,  **  Why  do  you  send  Missionaries  abroad  when 
you  have  so  many  heathens  at  home  ?''  Well  now,  I  think  that  taunt  is  in  some  respecta 
well  founded.  But  in  whose  mouth  do  we  find  it  ?  Why,  we  find  it  in  the  mouth  of  thoae 
who,  if  you  look  through  the  list  of  contributions  to  this  great  society  and  other  institutional 
you  will  find  subscribing  neither  to  Missions  abroad  nor  to  Missions  at  home.  The  answer 
which  I  should  give  to  a  gainsayer  of  that  description  is,  not  that  there  is  injustice  in  the 
taunt,  because  I  am  one  of  those  who  think  that  we  should  begin  at  home — ^the  answer,  I 
say,  which  I  should  be  inclined  to  give  to  such  a  person  is  this — '*  These  things  ought  ye  to 
have  done,  and  not  to  leave  the  other  undone.*'  I  do,  from  the  bottom  of  my  heart,  thank 
God — at  least  for  my  own  |communion,  and  I  believe  I  may  say  the  same  for  other  com- 
munions too— that  we  have  at  last  got  a  prelate  in  the  diocese  of  London  who  seems  to 
have  risen  to  a  full  understanding  of  his  responsibilities  in  this  matter,  and  who  is  now 
endeavouring  that  this  reproach  may  be  vHped  away  from  us ;  not  simply  by  saying,  '*  We 
must  have  everything  in  the  Church  of  England,"  but  by  trying  to  encourage  all  denomina- 
tions who  "  hold  the  Head,"  and  wish  to  do  their  duty  as  he  is  striving  to  do  his,  and  as  we 
laymen  are,  I  hope,  aiming  at  doing  ours,  to  make  one  common  effort  that  the  reproach 
to  whfch  I  have  alluded  may  now  and  for  ever  be  removed.  Shall  I  say  a  word  about  the 
discussions  with  regard  to  that  sacred  Book  which  we  put  into  the  hands  of  our  Mission- 
aries, and  which  has  been  carried  fwr  and  wide,  we  hope,  with  saving  and  healing  power  on

its  wingi  to  tbe  attermost  parts  of  the  earth  ?  I  think  I  hardly  oeed  do  to.  At  the  same 
time  I  would  uk.  Where  are  the  gainsayers  now  ?  Where  are  those  who  would  endeavour  to 
destroy  onr  ftdth,  and  to  steal  from  benighted  nations  that  which  alone  can  give  them  light, 
and  life,  and  hope  ?  I  am  happy  to  think  that  at  all  erents  we  have  not  been  **  frighted 
from  onr  propriety ;"  that  we  had  too  much  confidence  in  the  Book  and  its  doctrines  to  be 
hnnried  away  from  it  or  alarmed.  I  very  much  regret  the  sort  of  hard  names  that  were 
flcmg  at  those  who  happened  to  take  peculiar  tiews  on  this  subject.  I  dislike  that  mode 
of  warfisre  in  a  prudential  point  of  Tiew.  Hard  words  will  convince  nobody,  but  they  will 
make  men  harder  to  convince.  Language  which  sympathizes  with  the  objector  while  it 
confutes  his  objection,  that  is  the  language  which  I  would  have  used  towards  those  who 
diiVer  from  us.  Let  us,  my  friends,  not  b^  frightened  by  objections.  If  the  Book,  with 
the  tenets  which  we  derive  from  it,  will  not  bear  the  most  searching  criticism,  let  us  give  it 
up  at  once.  Do  not  let  us  be  so  cowardly  as  to  suppose  that  the  Bible  will  not  bear  human 
criticism.  It  has  borne  it  for  hundreds  of  years,  and  it  vnll  bear  it  to  all  eternity.  I  will 
not  dwell  on  this  subject  any  longer ;  I  will  merely  say  that  the  wave  is  now  fast  receding ; 
that  although  it  vras  like  a  noisy  breaker  on  the  shore,  there  was  in  it  no  real  strength ; 
and  that  I  trust  that  very  soon  that  disturbed  wave  will  have  given  place  to  a  gentle  ripple, 
until  at  last  nothing  will  be  seen  but  the  calm  swell  of  the  central  ocean.  I  must  not,  my 
friends,  trespass  any  further  on  your  attention.  Missionary  work  is  a  very  tempting  theme, 
and  there  are  so  many  great  names  connected  with  the  London  Missionary  Society  that  one 
almost  feels  u  if  one  did  not  do  justice  to  the  Society  in  not  alluding  to  them.  I  aro  not 
going  to  do  so,  having  only  time  to  indicate  the  feelings  which  occupy  my  mind  on  this 
occasion ;  but  this  I  will  say  before  sitting  down,  that  so  long  as  South  Africa  exists — so 
long  as  the  islands  of  the  Pacific  Ocean  exist— so  long  as  the  names  of  Livingstone  and 
Williams  and  Moffat,  and  many  others  which  do  not  occur  to  my  mind  at  this  moment, 
are  remembered — so  long  as  there  is  any  true  religious  feeling  in  England — so  long  as  there 
is  any  true  sense  of  that  deep  responsibility  which  the  Imperial  Qovemment  throws  upon 
the  nation  as  regards  the  spread  of  Christianity  in  the  world,  so  long  as  there  is  any  grati- 
tude to  the  men  who  have  lived,  and  suffered,  and  died  in  the  cause  of  Christ — so  long  will 
the  name  of  the  London  Missionary  Society  be  borne  aloft  in  the  hands  and  hearts  of  all 
Christians. 
The  Rev.  Dr.  Tidman,  (Foreign  Secretary)  then  read  the  Report. 

Thb  history  of  the  Society  for  the  year  now  to  be  reported  adds  to  the  accumulated  and 
conclusive  evidence  of  former  years,  that,  for  the  successful  progress  of  that  glorious  cause 
which  it  labours  to  advance,  our  hope  and  trust  must  rest  on  God  alone.  Events  have 
recently  occurred  in  Madagascar  in  painful  contrast  to  our  sanguine  expectations ;  and  in 
many  islands  of  the  South  Pacific,  on  which  the  light  of  heavenly  mercy  had  begun  to 
shine,  armed  bands  of  robbers  and  murderers  have  assailed  the  peaceful  and  defenceless 
people,  torn  them  from  their  kindred  and  their  homes,  and  carried  them  to  strange  and 
distant  lands,  where  they  are  toiling  in  slavery,  or  daily  dying  in  their  bondage.  These  sad 
events  of  the  year  remind  us  that  our  brightest  prospects  may  be  suddenly  overcast,  and  that 
oar  anticipated  sources  of  joy  may  become  the  occasion  of  our  bitterest  disappointment. 

During  the  year  also  the  Directors  have  had  to  mourn  over  the  removal  by  death  of  five 
devoted  Missionaries,  and  four  faithful  women  associated  with  them  in  Missionary  labours. 
The  Rev.  Alexander  Irvine,  appointed  to  Polynesia,  was  not  permitted  to  see  the 
island  where  he  hoped  to  spend  a  long  life  of  service  for  his  Saviour ;  he  was  arrested  on 
his  way  by  disease,  and  died  at  Sydney,  six  months  after  his  departure  from  England.  The 
Ret.  William  Howe,  for  seventeen  years  our  faithful  and  indefatigable  agent  in  Tahiti, 
worn  out  by  labour  and  anxiety,  sunk  into  the  arms  of  death  in  the  island  of  Rarotonga,  on 
the  9th  of  June.    Thither  he  had  proceeded  in  the  "  John  Williams,"  on  his  way  to 


158  MISSIONARY  MAGAZINE 

Aufttraligy  where  it  w«s  hoped,  after  the  heat  and  burden  of  the  day,  he  might  have  enjc^ed 
a  clear  and  quiet  evening ;  but  the  gracious  Master,  vhom  he  had  so  long  and  faithfully 
served,  took  him  to  that  better  country  on  which  the  sun  never  sets.  His  sound  praotioal 
wisdom,  united  with  uncompromising  fidelity  and  the  purest  benevolence,  secured  for  kim, 
even  from  the  French  authorities  in  Tahiti,  respect  and  confidence  ;  and  when  the  tidings 
of  his  death  reached  that  island,  the  sorrow  of  the  Queen,  and  of  all  classes  of  the  peofle, 
was  intensA.  The  Rev.  T.  S.  Hood  and  the  Rev.  William  Ross,  both  veterans  in  South 
Africa,  died  in  peace  and  honour  at  their  posts  of  labour,  the  former  on  the  24th  of  May, 
and  the  latter  on  the  30th  of  July.  The  Rev.  Robeut  Wilson^  one  of  the  first  Protestant 
Missionaries  to  Hankow,  after  two  years'  labour  in  that  mighty  Chinese  city,  fell  a  victim  to 
cholera  on  the  11th  of  AugnsL  Although  his^  course  was  short,  he  had,  by  exemplary 
dih'gence,  overcome  the  difficulties  of  the  colloquial  Chinese,  and  was  able  to  preach  the 
glad  tidings  of  salvation  to  the  people  in  their  own  tongue ;  and  on  his  sudden  removal  the 
Native  Chrifitians,  with  his  own  countrymen,  and  other  foreign  residents  in  Hankow, 
foUc^wed  him  to  the  grave,  and  rendered  to  his  mourning  widow  and  her  fatherless  infants 
generous  proofs  of  their  respect  and  sympathy. 

The  loss  among  our  female  friends  in  India  has  also  been  unusually  great.  Mas.  Asburt 
of  Mirzapore,  and  Mbs.  Jones  of  Benares,  Mrs.  Bay  lis  of  Travaneore,  and  Mrs.  Ricb  of 
Bangalore,  have  all  been  called  by  their  Divine  Saviour  to  enter  into  rest.  The  former 
two,  as  it  was  hoped,  were  only  entering  on  the  service  of  their  Lord ;  but  Mrs.  Bajlis  had 
spent  fourteen  years,  and  Mrs.  Rice  twenty-seven  years  in  the  Mission  field,  during  which 
they  had  diligently  united  with  their  husbands  in  labours  of  love,  especially  in  efforts  for 
the  social  and  religious  improvement  of  their  own  sex. 

But,  while  we  mourn  over  this  record  of  mortality,  it  is  a  demand  for  thankfolness  to 
the  Divine  Head  of  the  Church  that  He  has  enabled  the  Society  to  send  forth  other 
labourers  to  occupy  the  places  of  those  who  have  fallen.  During  the  year  five  new  agents 
have  gone  forth  to  Madagascar  :  the  Revs.  Julius  Kessler,  R.  G.  Hartley,  Benjamin 
Briggs,  and  John  Pearse,  vfith  Mr.  James  Sibree;  Mr«e,the  Revs.  R.  J.  Thomas  and  Jamea 
Williamson,  with  Dr.  Dudgeon,  to  China  ;  the  Rev.  H.  C.  Williamson  to  Jamaica  ;  and 
the  Rev.  Thomas  Carter  to  Berbice.  In  the  course  of  the  ensuing  autumn  they  also 
anticipate  the  gratification  of  sending  forth  six  additional  agents  to  India  :  two  to  Soxtth 
Africa,  ttpo  to  the  West  Indies,  <me  to  Madagascar,  and  one  to  China.  The  total 
number  of  the  Society's  Missionaries,  when  thus  reinforced,  will  amount  to  One  hundred 
and  eeventy-nx;  with  upwards  of  six  hundred  native  agents,  including  evangeliats, 
catechists,  and  schoolmasters. 

T  In  the  month  of  May  last  the  Society  was  deprived  by  death  of  its  estimable  Treasurer, 
Sir  Culling  Bardlet  Eardlet,  Bart.,  who  had  sustained  the  office  with  great  kindness 
and  generosity  for  nearly  twenty  years.  He  died  in  the  midst  of  an  active  and  useful  life, 
devoted  to  benevolence  and  religion ;  and  on  the  mournful  occasion  the  Directors  expressed 
their  high  sense  of  his  worth  and  usefulness  in  the  following  terms : — 
**  Resolved, — 

*<  That,  in  receiving  the  announcement  of  the  decease  of  their  late  Treasurer,  Sir 
Culling  Eardley  Eardley,  Bart.,  the  Directors  record  with  mournful  pleasure  their 
high  sense  of  his  distinguished  Christian  character,  and  of  his  unwearied  and 
generous  exertions  in  promoting  the  interests  of  religion,  beaevolenoe,  and 
freedom.  But  especially  the  Directors  bear  their  grateful  testimony  to  the  many 
kind  and  valuable  services  rendered  by  their  departed  friend  as  the  Treasurer  of 
this  Society,  during  the  extended  period  of  nearly  twenty  years,  in  which  he 
sustained  that  office. 
'*  That  the  Directors  beg  to  convey  to  the  family  of  Sir  Culfing  Eardley  Eardley,  Bart.^ 
the  assaranee  of  their  siBoere  sympathy  and  Christian  ooadolsnce,  trusting  tfaac, 
under  this  solemn  and  afflictive  bereavement,  they  may  be  sustained  fa^  the 
promises  of  the  Holy  Scriptures,  and  the  grace  of  the  Divine  Spirit.'' 


FOR  JUNE,  1864.  1S9 

The  Directors  are  truly  thankful  to  tt«te  thtt,  at  their  earnest  invitation,  the  Hon. 
Arthur  KiMfi^AiRD,  M.P.,  has  consented  to  undertake  the  vacant  office;  and  Uuy  {gbL 
assured  that  their  constituents  universally  will  Ughly  agppraoiate  the  kindaeat  of  Mr.

After  prolonged  consideration  and  repeated  conference  between  the  Directors  both  of 
Town  and  Country,  it  was  unanimously  resolved,  in  October,  1861,  to  establish  an  Insfi- 
tntion  in  which  the  Students  of  the  Society  might  spend  the  last  year  of  their  academical 
course  in  Btudies  peculiar  to  Mittionary  life  and  labour.  The  course  for  the  year  includes 
the  contiBBed  study  of  the  Sacred  Scriptures  in  the  originala;  the  principles  and  history  of 
Christian  lliaftions  both  ancient  and  modern;  the  acquisition  of  at  least  the  elements 
of  the  several  languages  in  which  the  Missionary  is  hereafter  to  exercise  his  ministry; 
and  the  attainment,  when  desirable,  of  the  principiea  and  practice  of  surgery  and  medicine. 
In  addmion  to  thait  advantages,  tht  Miaaionary  elemant  pervades  and  charaoterixes  the

POLYNESIA. 

In  no  section  of  the  Mission  field  is  the  increasing  power  and  extending  progress  of  the 
Gospel  more  striking  and  impressive  than  among  the  varions  tribes  of  the  Soath  Pacific 
Islands.  In  the  social  and  moral  transformation  of  thousands  and  tens  of  thousands  of  these 
islanders  from  savages  and  murderers  to  loving  husbands,  tender  fathers,  and  peaceful  neigh- 
bours, we  find  living  illustrations  of  prophetic  imagery :  '<  Instead  of  the  thorn  shall  come 
up  the  fir-tree,  and  instead  of  the  brier  shall  come  up  the  myrtle-tree :  and  it  shall  be  to  the 
Lord  for  a  name,  for  an  everlasting  sign  that  shall  not  be  cut  off." 

Every  successive  year  brings  fresh  tidings  of  these  marvellous  achievements  of  redeeming 
power  and  grace  ;  and,  whereas  our  fathers  bore  a  protracted  night  of  toil  before  they  be- 
held the  dawn  and  gathered  the  first-fruits,  the  labourers  of  our  own  time  find  many  of 
those  distant  isles  waiting  for  God's  law  ;  and,  after  a  comparatively  short  course  of  faith 
and  labour,  the  little  one  becomes  a  thousand,  and  the  small  one  a  strong  nation. 

This  accelerated  progress  of  the  Gospel  must  be  ascribed,  under  the  Divine  blessing,  to 
the  wonderful  and  blessed  change  it  has  accomplished  in  many  islands  on  which  the  shadow 
of  death  once  rested — ^to  the  conviction  of  the  natives,  even  in  their  ignorance,  that  the  Mis- 
sionary comes  to  their  country,  not  as  other  white  men  often  come,  to  kill  and  to  destroy, 
but  to  elevate,  instruct,  and  save — and,  above  all,  to  the  initiatory  labours  of  Native  Evan- 
gelists, who  carry  in  themselves  the  evidence  of  its  power  and  grace,  and  who  are  able  to 
say  to  the  ignorant,  the  base,  and  the  cruel,  *<  We  were  even  as  yourselves.  Come  with  us, 
and  we  will  do  you  good,  and  lead  you  to  that  Saviour  who  has  redeemed  us,  and  will 
redeem  you  from  misery  and  death.'' 

The  following  short  extract  from  the  letter  of  a  Native  Evangelist  in  the  Island  of  Mar6, 
addressed  to  the  Rev.  George  Gill,  his  former  Missionary,  evinces  the  qualification  of  these 
native  labourers,  and  the  success  with  which  God  crowns  their  labours  : — 

'*  Mar^,  January,  1864. 
**  To  Mr.  and  Mrs.  George  Gill. 

'*  May  the  blessings  of  life  and  salvation  from  our  Lord  and  Saviour  Jesus  Christ  be 
yours,  and  the  portion  also  of  your  children. 

"  Great  is  the  loving  compassion  of  my  heart  towards  you— it  is  like  the  love  of  a  child 
towards  its  father  far  away. 

*'The  word  of  God  is  growing  greatly  in  this  dark  land;  many  there  are  who  have  come 
on  the  side  of  Jesus,  plucked  from  the  hand  and  power  of  Satan ;  so  that  it  may  be  truly 
said,  '  The  work  of  our  hands  is  established  in  this  land.' 

"  Many  have  been  baptized  in  the  name  of  Jesus — many  are  seeking  life  for  their  souls  in 
Christ — many  have  forsaken  the  paths  of  sin  and  vice  :  the  work  has  been  with  tears  and 
sorrow  in  the  planting,  but  now  it  is  joy  and  sweetness  in  the  budding. 

"  I  am  living  at  the  Station  of  Mr.  Jones,  as  a  helper  in  the  work  of  our  Lord. 

'*  The  work  is  one,  as  you  well  know,  and  the  joy  is  one ;  planting  the  seed,  and  waiting 


FOR  JUNE,    1864.  161 

for  fniit ;  and  what  is  this  ?  It  is  the  enlightening;  of  the  heart  of  man  hj  the  word  of  the 
Goapel  which  we  teach,  and  which  they  love ;  and  great  is  our  joy  and  comfort  to  know 
their  faith  in  the  Loird.  We  work,  and  put  all  the  work,  which  is  all  His,  into  His  own 
hand.    '  He  must  give  the  increase/    He  must  make  it  grow  and  enlarge  it 

"  The  zeal  of  His  servants  in  this  land  is  great,  strengthened  by  His  great  love. 

'*  Here  is  another  word  I  ha?e  to  say — Many  of  the  heathen  from  the  inland  villages 
have  come  to  receive  the  Word  of  God.  During  the  year  1863  there  were  four  heathen 
chiefs  who,  with  their  people  and  tribes,  were  wiUing  so  to  be  taught. 

**  Here  is  another  word  I  have  to  say — ^The  Missionaries  have  established  a  School  for 
Native  Teachers  in  this  land.  This  indeed  is  a  great  good  that  has  been  made  to  grow  in 
tiiia  land,  to  teach  them  wisely  the  word  of  tru& 

"  Here  is  another  word — ^The  kings,  chiefs,  and  governors,  have  established  laws  for  the 
rale  of  this  land — for  the  punishment  of  evil-doers,  for  the  dread  and  terror  of  the  hearts 
of  men  who  are  obdurate  and  unbelieving,  and  it  may  be  a  blessing  for  many.  We  already 
thank  God  for  the  order  in  this  land. 

*'  We  are  now  very  busy  in  building  a  stone  house,  and  are  teaching  the  heathen  how  to 
work  in  this  kind  of  work :  they  are  very  ignorant  of  this  kind  of  work  for  the  body,  as 
they  are  of  the  better  work  for  their  spirits.  We  are  teaching  them  how  to  work  in  wood 
— to  saw  wood,  to  plane  wood,  and  to  nail  wood ;  to  build  houses  of  stone  and  other  kind 
of  houses.  But  you  know  how  few  tools  we  have,  and  how  unskilful  ignorant  and  heathen 
people  are.  A  few,  however,  are  doing  very  well;  but  great  is  our  compassion  towards 
them  here,  and  great  is  our  joy  when  we  see  their  ignorance  and  darkness  enlightened. 

"  This  is  aU  I  have  now  to  say.  I  have  written  in  great  haste,  because  the  ship  is  in  a 
great  hurry.    May  the  blessings  of  life  and  salvation  be  with  you  aU. 

(Signed)        '•  Taka." 

In  no  Missionary  field  has  the  apostolic  counsel  to  Timothy  been  more  diligently  carried 
out  than  by  our  brethren  in  Polynesia  :  "  The  things  which  thou  hast  heard  of  me,  the 
same  commit  thou  to  faithful  men,  who  may  be  able  to  teach  others  also  ;"  and  the  happy 
results  are  now  seen  in  the  successful  labours  of  Native  Evangelieia,  by  whom  the  Gospel 
has  been  carried  to  distant  islands,  and  to  tribes  sitting  in  darkness  and  the  shadow  of 
death ;  and,  but  for  the  courage  and  constancy,  the  Christian  teaching  and  the  holy  example 
of  these  humble  and  devoted  servants  of  the  Lord  Jesus,  thousands  and  tens  of  thousanda 
who  now  rejoice  in  the  light  and  liberty  of  Christ  would  have  sat  beneath  death's  dark 
shadow  until  the  present  hour.  It  has  therefore  been  a  primary  object  with  the  Directors 
for  many  years  to  sustain  in  full  efficiency  the  several  Institutions  for  training  Native 
Christians  of  tried  character  and  suitable  talents  for  Missionary  service ;  and  they  are 
thankful  to  state  that  these  Institutions  were  never  in  greater  efficiency  than  at  the  present 
time.  In  the  Institution  in  the  Island  of  TAHAAthere  are  now  Twenij/'Six  etudents.  In 
the  Institution  of  Rarotonga,  Eighteen,  In  Samoa,  Eighiy-eighi.  Total,  One  hundred 
and  thirty-two. 

The  ^enercd  character  of  the  Native  Churches,  especially  when  we  consider  the  former 
mental  and  moral  degradation  of  the  converts,  is  equally  gratifying  and  surprising ;  and  in 
the  exhibition  of  many  features  of  Christian  life  they  supply  useful  lessons  to  ourselves. 
Especially,  their  zeal  and  liberality  in  the  support  and  extension  of  the  Gospel,  compared 
with  their  limited  resources,  is  marvellous ;  and  this  must  be  admitted  by  all  when  they 
learn  that  the  contributions  of  the  Polynesian  Churches  for  the  year,  partly  in  money  and 
partly  in  native  produce,  exceed  in  value  £1900. 

It  must  not,  however,  be  supposed  that  the  necessity  for  British  Missionaries  is  superseded 
by  the  labours  of  Native  Evangelists ;  for  although  they  are  dauntless  pioneers  and  brave 
combatants  in  the  battle  field  with  heathenism,  they  need  the  presence  and  counsels  of  a 
leader,  and  still  therefore  the  loud  cry  is  heard  from  the  Isles  of  the  Pacific  to  the  Churches 
of  Britain,  **  Come  over  and  help  us.'' 

The  Rby.  J.  C.  Vivian,  appointed  by  the  Directors  to  the  Society  Islands,  informs  us 
of  the  importunity  of  the  people  on  islands  he  visited  on  the  voyage,  jrfeRCte^^  ^>«ett  long 
waiting  for  the  white  Teacher,  to  detain  him  among  them. 


162  KISSIONART  MAGAZINE 

"  Ow  lomg  ifofBge  from  Sfdatf,*'  writet  Mr.  Vivian,  *•  though  •covpyiof*  nearly  nine 
Boathty  has  been  fall  of  interest,  and  has  oentributed  greatly  to  my  experience  We  bave 
vieited  upwards  of  thirty  islands,  and  I  have  teen  the  Mission  field  in  these  seas  »  aU  its 
length  and  breadth.  Yon  will  not  be  snrprised  when  I  tell  yon  that,  oa  sereral  of  the 
islands  to  the  West,  the  people  are  se  anxiaas  to  receive  Miasionaries,  that  I  had  literally 
te  drag  nyadf  away  almost  by  fbroa  from  them. 

"  At  Uea,  one  ef  the  Loyalty  Islands,  the  Natives  were  so  an«k>us  for  me  to  remaiii,  that 
they  were  ready  to  give  up  their  lands*  or  anything  they  possessed,  if  I  would  stay  and  be 
tlMir  Missionary. 

**  At  FatBf  as  soo^  as  they  knew  I  was  a  new  Missionary,  they  detenniaed,  if  possible,  to 
secure  me.  At  first  they  tried  persuasion :  on  finding  this  to  faH,  they  next  tried' what  force 
woald  do — they  designed  to  carry  me  off.  For  this  purpose,  six  strong  fellows  came  on 
board  before  daylight,  and  took  their  stand  near  the  eabin  stairs.  Jndge  my  surprise  on 
aMending  the  ladder.  I  had  scarcely  reached  the  top  before  I  was  caught  in  the  close 
embrace  of  these  six  black  men.  They  looked  very  resolved  at  ftrst ;  but  by  a  little  coaxing 
I  got  my  release,  and  when  they  found  their  case  was  hopeless,  they  desisted  and  made  no 
Aorther  effort.  Every  one  of  these  poor  feUows  carried  marks  in  his  countenance  of  deep 
desire  for  forther  instruction  in  the  Word  of  God.  It  was  truly  painfol  in  the  extreme  to 
witness  these  things,  and  have  no  means  of  assistance  at  hand.  Oh  that  more  labourers 
wefe  sent  forth  !     Truly,  *  the  harvest  is  great,  and  the  labonrers  are  few.' 

"  On  reaching  Samoa,  the  same  cry  was  heard  from  the  Brethren  and  people, '  Do  stay 
here  ;  we  need  help  !'  At  the  meeting  of  the  Brethren  no  less  than  seven  of  the  high 
chiefs  came  and  made  a  formal  request  that  I  might  be  detained.  Oh,  if  the  Christian 
people  of  England  could  for  one  moment  have  witnessed  the  anxiety,  or  heard  the  pleadivgs 
of  these  men,  I  am  persuaded  they  would  think  no  sacrifice  too  great  to  make,  in  order  to 
supply  their  want.  They  said  with  tears,  if  a  Missionary  did  not  come  with  them,  the 
Fneti  w6uld,  and  the  people  would  be  lost.  If,  by  gathering  the  whole  population  before 
me,  to  plead  their  own  case,  they  could  succeed,  th;;y  would  dn  it,  and  50O0  people  should 
come  and  present  themselves  as  destitute  of  a  pastor  and  going  to  ruin.  These  things 
deeply  wrought  upon  my  feelings,  and  my  heart  melted  in  me  for  their  sakes.** 

A  similar  statement  is  g^ven  by  Dr.  Turner  of  the  urgent  entreaties  of  the  nstivea  of 
Fea,  addressed  to  Mr.  King,  appointed  to  Samoa. 

The  most  formidable  obstructions  to  the  progress  of  Christianity  in  the  Islands  of  the 
Pacific  have  not  been  found  in  the  ignorance  and  degradation,  nor  even  the  savage  ferocity 
of  the  islanders ;  these  have  been  orercome  by  toil  and  patience  and  love ;  but  the  deadly 
wrongs  inflicted  upon  the  defenceless  people  by  white  men  bearing  the  Christian  name — these 
have  been  the  monster  evils  which  the  Christian  Teacher  has  had  to  encounter  in  every 
step  of  his  generous  career.  To  the  cruelties  perpetrated  by  our  countrymen  upon  the 
natives  of  Eramanga,  Williams  became  the  victim  of  their  mistaken  revenge.  But  tiie 
atroMties  recently  committed  by  white  saTages  on  the  enlightened  and  Christianized  natives 
of  Polynesia  exceed  the  horrible  barbarities  of  all  former  years.  Vessels  well  armed,  and 
snpi^ied  with  all  appliances  for  success,  were  sent  out  from  the  ports  of  Pern,  to  capture 
by  firaud  or  by  force  the  natives  of  various  Polynesian  groups,  and  convey  them  as  slaves 
to  labour  and  to  die  in  the  mines  of  that  country.  These  vessels  were  fitted  out  by  a 
well-known  mercantile  house  in  Lima,  and  partly  with  British  capital ;  and  such  was  the 
success  of  their  inhuman  enterprise,  that  upwards  of  two  thousand  rictims  were  torn  tronn 
their  homes,  and,  if  they  survived  the  cruelties  of  the  voyage,  were  doomed  to  the  aggra- 
vated horrors  of  slavery.  Several  hundreds  of  the  sufferers  were  natives  of  the  Penrhyn 
Islands,  and  the  Union  group,  and  others  of  Niue  or  Savage  Island.  Into  all  these  gronps 
the  Gospel  had  been  introduced  by  the  Native  Evangelists  of  our  Society ;  and,  so  signally 
had  the  Divine  blessing  been  vouchsafed  to  their  humble  labours,  that  thousands  of  the 
barbarous  people  had  been  turned  from  idols  to  serve  the  living  God,  and  to  enjoy  the  peace 
and  happiness  which  redeeming  mercy  never  fails  to  bring. 

The  last  Report  of  the  Society  briefiy  recorded  the  wonderful  and  happy  change  effected 
among  the  natives  of  Savage  Island,  by  the  power  of  Christianity,  in  the  following  words 
of  the  Rev.  W.  G.  Lawes,  the  solitary  European  Missionary  among  the  people  :— 


FOB  JUNE,   1864.  1€3 

"  Fifteen  years  ago  a  foreigner  wonld  not  have  dared  to  land,  nor  been  snifered  to  live  on 
the  island ;  now,  foreigners  are  treated  with  hotpitalily  and  kindness,  and  those  who  live 
amongst  the  people  lack  no  good  things  that  the  land  produces.  Fifteen  years  ago  they 
imd  in  the  bush  like  brutes ;  now,  villages  and  neat  plastered  cottages  evidence  the  pro- 
gress of  dvilizatton.  Fifteen  years  ago  anarchy,  war,  and  bloodshed,  prevailed  throughout 
tiie  island ;  now,  law,  order,  and  peace.  Fifteen  years  ago  the  people  were  all  dark  and 
degfaded,  strangers  to  prayer  and  praise;  now, 'clothed  and  in  their  right  mind,'  they 
•orrooDd  their  fanily  altars  night  and  morning  to  bow  down  to  the  Gk)d  of  heaven,  and  the 
air  is  vocal  with  their  songs  of  praise.  Fifteen  years  ago  they  had  no  written  language ; 
i»w,  they  have  the  Gospel  and  other  books,  with  two  thou$amd  readers.  Fifteen  years 
ago  tbey  were  alU  before  God,  dead  in  sin ;  now  there  are  360  in  Church  fellowship,  living 
to  His  glory,  beeides  many  who,  we  have  reason  to  hope,  are  new  creatures  ia  Christ 

WzthiB  a  few  months  after  this  cheering  statement  was  given,  the  tame  writer  thos 
deecribes  the  wrongs  and  cruelties  committed  by  a  Peruvian  slayer  upon  the  unsuspecting 
natives: — 

"  When  the  ahip  sailed  on  the  night  of  the  capture,  the  natives  on  board  thought  she 
was  making  a  long  tack ;  but  they  soon  found  that  they  were  really  off.  Two  white  men, 
armed,  guarded  the  hatchway,  which  was  shut  down,  and  the  poor  creatures  below  were  in 
total  darkness.  They  kept  knockini^  at  the  door,  dedc,  and  sides  of  the  ship,  and  calling  to 
be  let  out ;  but  some  of  the  white  men  went  down,  and  beat  them  with  great  pieces  of  wood, 
for  makhig  a  noise.  When  the  poor  captives  thought  it  was  about  the  time  of  their  even- 
ing warship,  they  united  in  their  wretched  confinement  in  singing  and  prayer. 

"  On  the  following  day  the  vessel  stood  in  towards  the  shore  ;  and  some  natives,  ignorant 
of  the  character  of  the  ship,  and  of  what  had  transpired,  went  on  board.  Those  in  confine- 
ment recognised  the  well-known  tiounds  of  their  native  tongue,  and  shouted  for  help,  but  of 
4Kmrse  in  vain.  By  desperate  efforts  they  succeeded  in  breaking  a  hole  in  the  door  large 
enough  to  let  one  through  at  a  time.  A  number  succeeded  in  reaching  the  deck,  and 
railed  over  the  ship's  side  into  the  sea ;  but  there  were  only  two  or  three  small  canoes  ; 
bnd  was  along  way  off,  and  some  were  not  able  to  swim  well.  The  wretches  on  board 
fired  from  the  deck  upon  the  helpless  natives  in  the  canoes  and  in  the  water.  A  boat  was 
lowered,  and  many  were  recaptured.  Seven  only  escaped.  Among  those  carried  off  were 
fhirteen  Church-members,  and  many  candidates.  Eighteen  wives  are  left  without  husbands, 
and  sixty-three  children  are  deprived  of  their  fathers. 

**  One  young  man,  Simeooa,  a  Church-member,  was  brought  home  a  corpse,  shot  through 
tke  head.  The  white  wretches  fired  upon  the  unarmed  and  unresisting  natives,  for  no 
other  reason  than  that  they  might  terrify  them,  and  so  make  them  an  easy  prey.  Some  of 
the  canoes  surrendered  in  terror :  only  three  escaped  to  tell  the  tad  tale. 

*'  Among  those  carried  off  are  some  of  the  most  impoi*tant  men  on  the  island,  the  law- 
makers and  law-enforcers  of  Savage  Island,  and  some  of  the  most  promising  young  men. 
Twenty-&ve  Cburch-membera,  one  deacon,  and  many  candidates,  are  among  the  cap^ves. 

*'  It  is  indeed  a  day  of  darkness  and  gloominess  on  Nine,  and  many  other  of  thtae  inta* 
resting  isles.    It  is  as  if  the  powers  of  hell  were  let  loose  upon  their  defenceless  tribes. 

**  One  of  the  most  touching;  incidents  connected  with  this  sad  affuir,"  says  the  Rev. 
A.  W.  Murray,  **  is  the  fact  that  on  the  morning  following  the  dreadful  day  on  which  the 
nnrderOBt  proceedings  took  place  at  Savage  I&laad,  the  natives,  while  their  hearts  were 
bleediag  and  their  tears  flowing  because  isthers,  busbsnds,  brothers,  and  tons  ware  ton 
firem  tl^r  embraee,  should  hft  up  their  voice  to  God  in  prayer,  not  to  invoke  vengeance 
upon  the  heads  of  their  guilty  oppressors,  but  to  pray  that  their  hearts  might  be  cbangedv 
and  that  they  might  be  led  to  abandon  their  wicked  courses.  How  hke  the  spirit  of  Him 
whose  loUowers  tbey  proCess  to  be :  *  Father,  forgive  them,  for  they  know  not  what  they  do.' 
And  still  more  touching,  perhaps,  is  the  scene  on  board  that  tkN^mg  hell  where  the  poor 
captives  were  confined.  When  they  supposed  the  hour  had  arrived  at  which  they  had 
been  wont  with  their  families  to  worship  God  in  their  happy  homes,  now  no  longer  theirs, 
they  united  in  their  accustomed  exercises ;  they  prayed  and  sang  praises  to  God,  uid  no 
donbt,  hke  their  friends  on  shore,  sought  blessings  for  the  miserable  men  by  whom  they 
were  being  so  cruelly  wronged." 

The  foDowing  general  statement  of  the  atrocities  committed  by  the  Peruvian  slave-ships 
is  given,'  not  by  a  Christian  Missionary,  who  might  be  supposed  to  write  with  affection 
and  partiahty  towards  his  suffering  converts,  but  it  is  the  plain,  unvarnished  tale  of  an 


164  MISSIONARY  MAGAZINE 

English  Bailor,  the  captain  of  a  vessel  trading  in  the  South  Pacific,  and  whose  testimony  ma  j 
therefore  he  regarded  as  entitled  to  confidence : — 

*'  The  schooner '  Emily'  sailed  from  Bay  of  Islands,  3rd  February,  for  Sunday  Island,  and 
on  amiTal  there  found  a  large  barque  at  anchor.  On  the  captain  of  the  schooner  landing,  he 
saw  a  number  of  natives  that  he  knew  to  come  from  Duke  of  York  and  Duke  of  Clarence 
Islands,  and  as  he  could  speak  their  language,  they  told  him  how  that  the  barque  had  visited 
their  islands,  and  that  the  captain  and  crew,  well  armed,  landed  in  their  boats,  drove  all 
the  people  down  to  the  beach  at  the  point  of  the  bayonet,  took  every  man,  old  and  young, 
that  had  any  strength,  and  carried  them  on  board  the  ship,  leaving  none  on  the  two  islands 
but  a  few  old  white-headed  men,  and  some  women  and  children.  The  islands  are  almost 
depopulated.  There  were  a  number  of  natives  from  Savage  Island  on  board,  as  well  as 
from  Manihiki,  Danger,  Easter,  and  other  islands.  There  were  about  twenty-five  women 
and  forty  children  taken  off  Easter  Island.  When  the  slaver  made  Danger  Island,  the 
Missionary  ashore  sent  a  canoe  off  to  know  what  vessel  it  was,  and  to  obtain  information. 
On  the  canoe  coming  alongside,  both  it  and  the  man  were  hoisted  on  board ;  the  latter 
was  put  below  the  hatches,  and  the  former  broken  up  for  fire-wood. 

'*  The  object  of  the  sUver  visiting  Sunday  Island  was  to  try  and  restore  the  health  of  his 
cargo,  which  must  have  been  very  numerous ;  as  300  or  more,  including  men,  women,  and 
children,  were  in  a  dying  state,  owing  to  their  crowded  condition,  and  were  landed  in  a  most 
deplorable  plight.  They  were  so  emaciated  and  feeble  that  they  could  not  stand,  and  some 
were  not  able  to  crawl.  The  first  kiunch-load  that  was  landed  consisted  of  fifty-three  men : 
only  three  could  stand  of  that  number,  three  were  found  dead  on  the  launch  reaching  the 
beach,  and  the  residue  were  hauled  out  of  the  boat  in  the  roughest  manner  to  be  conceived, 
and  thrown  on  the  beach — some  beyond  the  surf,  and  others  in  it.  Several  were 
drowned  where  they  were  thrown,  and  eighty  died  immediately  after  being  landed.  Some, 
not  having  strength  to  crawl  beyond  the  reach  of  the  tide,  were  drowned.  As  soon  as 
some  of  the  others  gained  a  little  strength,  and  were  able  to  move  about,  they  ate  almost 
anything  that  came  in  their  reach,  and  the  consequence  was  that  diarrhcea,  flux,  and  cramp 
seized  them  and  carried  them  off  in  numbers.  The  dead  bodies  were  buried  on  the  beach 
in  the  sand,  and  when  the  tide  rose  and  the  surf  set  in,  all  the  bodies  were  disinterred,  and 
strewed  over  the  beach,  and  allowed  to  remain  as  the  tide  left  them.  On  the  19th  April  a 
considerable  number  of  the  people  had  partially  recovered,  and  were  able  to  walk  about. 
Many  of  them  intended  to  start  for  the  high  land  just  before  the  sailing  of  the  barque,  and 
hide  themselves,  which  they  can  do,  as  the  island  is  favourable  for  that  purpose.  The 
slaver  is  a  beautiful-looking  vessel,  of  about  400  tons  measurement,  and  is  remarkably  fast 
in  her  sailing  qualities.  She  has  various  names,  flies  a  variety  of  flags,  and  is  well  armed. 
The  captain  and  the  greater  part  of  the  officers  are  Spaniards.  Her  crew  is  well-appointed : 
besides  petty  officers,  there  are  twenty  men  of  various  nations  before  the  mast.  This  vessel 
is  one  of  seven  of  a  similar  character,  and  employed  in  like  manner  among  the  islands." 

From  the  preceding  statement  it  will  be  seen  that  many  of  the  captives  perish  before  they 
reach  the  hind  of  their  destined  bondage,  and  the  fearful  sufferings  of  those  who  actually 
reach  Peru  may  be  learnt  from  the  subjoined  brief  statement  of  an  English  gentleman 
resident  in  Lima,  and  who  is  evidently  well  informed  on  the  painful  subject : — 

**  Fifteen  hundred  natives  of  Polynesia  have  been  imported  and  sold  here  [at  Peru].  At 
the  hotel  where  I  resided  there  is  a  boy  employed  in  the  kitchen ;  and  an  American  woman, 
residing  in  the  house,  has  a  little  girl  of  about  four  years  old,  for  which  she  paid  sixty 
piastres.  The  mortality  among  them  is  very  great,  especially  on  the  sugar-cane  and  on  the 
rice  plantations.  They  are  there  attacked  by  dysentery,  and  die  rapidly.  On  one  estate 
alone  seventy-five  were  thus  carried  off.  Their  treatment  is  nearly  the  same  as  that  of  the 
negroes  in  the  time  of  slavery.  They  are  given  something  to  eat  and  drink  because  they 
have  cost  money ;  but  they  are  beaten  when  they  do  not  work,  and,  as  that  is  altogether 
contrary  to  their  habits  and  their  thoughts,  a  great  number  have  died  under  the  blows 
inflicted  upon  them. 

**  Nothing  can  be  done  with  the  women :  they  absolutely  refuse  to  work.  It  is  some- 
thing reaUy  sad  to  see  people  sold  like  beasts,  who  can  read  their  Bible,  know  how  to  write, 
and  who  are,  in  some  respects,  superior  to  their  masters." 

This  mournful  intelligence  produced  the  strongest  sensation  throughout  Australia ;  and 
in  the  several  colonies  public  meetings  were  held,  at  which  petitions  and  memorials  were 
adopted,  urging  on  the  British  Government  the  necessity  of  immediate  measures  for  putting 


FOR  JUNE,  1864.  165 

an  end  to  tkis  monsticiif  eti]»  and,  if  potsible,  for  the  restoration  of  the  captives  to  their 
conntry  and  their  homes. 

On  the  arrival  of  the  sad  news  in  England,  the  Directors  presented  a  memorial  to  Earl 
Rossell,  Secretary  for  Foreign  Affairs,  inviting  the  special  attention  of  her  Mijesty's 
Government  to  these  gross  outrages,  and  urging  the  adoption  of  immediate  and  efficient 
means  for  their  repression.  From  the  reply  of  his  Lordship,  communicated  by  Mr.  Layard, 
they  were  gratified  to  learn  that  their  application  had  been  anticipated,  and  that  her 
Majesty's  Government  ''were  doing  all  they  could  in  the  matter." 

They  also  learnt,  with  much  pleasure  (though  not  officially),  that  the  measures  actually 
adopted  left  no  doubt  of  the  sincere  and  anxious  desire  of  the  Government  to  protect  the 
defenceless  natives  from  the  lawless  proceedings  of  the  slavers.  Mr.  Jeroingham,  the 
British  Minister  in  Rio,  firmly  protested  to  the  Peruvian  Government  agabst  the  cruelties 
committed  by  the  slavers,  and,  in  consequence  of  these  remonstrances,  that  Government 
placed  a  vessel  at  the  disposal  of  such  of  the  islanders  who,  having  been  forcibly  brought  to 
Peru,  were  desirous  of  returning  to  their  native  country.  The  **  Tribune,"  a  British  frigate, 
was  also  ordered  to  the  South  Sea  Islands,  in  order  to  communicate  with  our  consuls,  and 
to  afford  such  assistance  as  could  be  extended  to  the  islanders. 

We  most  earnestly  hope  that  the  success  of  these  measures  may  lead  both  to  the  righteous 
punishment  of  the  oppressor  and  the  liberation  of  the  oppressed ;  or,  should  they  fail,  that 
additional  means,  yet  more  stringent  and  effective,  will  be  adopted  till  these  objects  are 
secured. 

The  French  Governor  of  Tahiti,  claiming  jurisdiction  over  some  of  the  neighbouring 
islands  from  which  the  Peruvian  slavers  had  carried  off  victims,  promptly  despatched  armed 
vessels,  by  which  at  least  one  of  the  ships  was  captured,  and  the  captives  set  free.  The 
captain  and  supercargo  were  brought  to  trial  at  Papeete  for  piracy,  and  found  guilty;  the 
one  was  sentenced  to  six,  and  the  other  to  ten  years'  penal  servitude — a  most  righteous 
sentence,  which  we  may  hope  iHll  tend  to  deter  others  from  prosecuting  this  inhuman 
enterprise. 

THE  WEST  INDIES. 

The  Missions  originated  and  sustained  by  the  Society  in  Jamaica  and  British  Guiana 
present  for  the  greater  part  features  in  common,  and  throughout  the  year  they  have  made 
hopeful  advances  both  in  numbers  and  strength,  notwithstanding  some  adverse  circumstances 
to  which  they  have  been  exposed. 

They  have  suffered  from  the  continued  depression  of  Colonial  produce;  from  the  number 
of  immigrant  labourers  from  Africa  and  the  East ;  and  from  heavy  import  duties,  applied  to 
a  large  amount  in  the  support  of  the  several  ecclesiastical  bodies  and  their  respective  schools ; 
but  in  these  resources  convictions  of  Christian  duty  and  consistency  will  not  permit  our 
Ministers  and  Churches  to  share.  Although  affected  by  these  serious  obstructions,  they 
have  continued  to  make  advances :  additional  stations  have  been  formed — new  chapels  have 
been  built,  and  others  have  been  enlarged — the  character  and  social  habits  of  the  people 
have  been  sensibly  improved— and  their  contributions  toward  the  support  of  their 
Ministers,  the  expenses  of  worship,  and  the  education  of  the  young,  have  supplied  convincing 
evidence  of  their  Christian  principles  and  conscious  obligations. 

The  number  of  Churches  affiliated  vrith  the  Society  is  ThiHjf'tix,  distributed  as  follows  :— 
In  Jamaica,  Fourteen;  in  Demerara,  Ten;  and  in  Berbice,  Twehe, 

The  number  of  Missionaries  is  Twenty-twOf  and  of  Assistants  Thirty-five. 

The  number  of  Church-members  lut  returned  is  5446. 

The  amount  of  Contributions  nused  by  the  several  Churches  is  as  follows : — In  Jamaica, 
£2497  1«.  Id.;  in  Dbmeraba,  j^1590  15*.  %d.\  and  in  Berbice,  £2220  6#.  Zd,\  making 
a  Total  of  £6308  3#. 


166  MISSiONAKY   HAGAZINE 

The  indindual  and  social  aspect  of  the  coloured  races  in  the  West  Indies  is  gndoally 
undergoing  an  obvious  change.  The  race  of  Native  Africans  who  were  torn  from  their 
homes  and  brought  to  our  colonies  u  slates  is  Cset  passing  away ;  but  se  they  suooessiTely 
leave  the  scenes  of  their  early  bondage,  they  often  express  in  joyfnl  strains  their  gralitade 
to  that  Divine  Redeemer  who  remembered  them  in  their  low  estate  and  made  them  free 
indeed. 

The  last  Bepori  of  the  Rby.  James  Soott,  cf  Demeraim,  contains  some  observtttaons  to 
this  effect : — 

*'  We  have  still  a  small  portion  of  the  persons  in  onr  Churches  who  were  converted  in  a 
state  of  slavery,  and  who  were  comforted  and  sustained  by  the  Gospel  while  groaning  under 
the  burden  which  that  system  of  iniquity  imposed  upon  them.  They  have  been  tixt  stay 
and  the  strength  of  our  Churches,  and  are  so  still.  They  are,  however,  being  gathered 
home  to  the  rest  prepared  for  them  in  heaven.  It  is  most  deli;^htful  to  see  these  aged 
^sciples,  guided  through  life,  sustained  in  death,  and  dying  in  the  faith  of  Christ,  and  in 
the  full  assurance  of  faith,  leaving  ns  with  their  prayers  and  benedictiens.  I  have  been 
greatly  cheered  in  my  visits  to  the  sick  and  dying  beds  of  some  whom  we  regretted  to  lose, 
but  in  whose  bliss  we  have  had  our  joy.*' 

The  Rev.  Alfkbd  Joyce,  of  Jamaica,,  gives  an  interesting  narratfre  of  one  of  these 
former  slaves : — 

*'  During  the  past  week,"  he  writes,  "  I  have  committed  the  bodies  of  two  of  our  members 
to  the  grave,  both  of  whom  had  been  connected  with  the  Church  for  many  years.  The  life 
of  one  of  these  is  full  of  interest.  His  name  was  Thomas  Burke,  an  African.  He  was 
brought  to  Jamaica  when  about  nine  years  of  age.  He  was  a  great  favourite  with  his  master, 
who  placed  vreat  confidence  in  him,  and  made  him  his  waiting-servant.  He  was  afterwards 
intrusted  with  a  dray  to  fetch  goods  from  Spanish  Town,  where,  one  evening,  he  attended  a 
prayer  meeting,  and  heard  of  the  love  of  Chrbt,  who  died  for  sinners.  From  that  time  he 
'felt  himself  a  poor  sinner  ft*om  Africa,  and  Budkra  no  care  for  him,  but  one  Massa  Jesus 
love  him ;'  so  he  at  once  gave  his  heart  to  thai  Jestts.  So  anxious  was  he  to  hear  more  of 
his  Saviour,  that  on  a  Saturday  evening,  after  he  had  fioiahed  bis  work,  he  would  walk  to 
Spanish  Town,  a  distance  of  thirty-nine  miles,  to  meet  with  God's  people  on  the  Sabbath. 
He  walked  back  to  his  master's  estate,  and  was  at  work  by  four  o'clock  on  Monday 
morning. 

'^  During  the  week  he  would  go  to  neighbouring  estates  by  night,  and  hold  meetings  with 
the  slaves.  He  was  not  unsuccessful  in  his  endeavours  to  bring  others  to  think  about  their 
souls,  and  many  began  to  pray  for  themselves,  and  for  so  duing  were  dreadfully  beaten,  and 
sometimes  put  to  death.  His  master  told  him  he  might  thank  God  when  he  partook  of  his 
food,  but  at  uo  other  time  was  he  to  pray ;  tf  he  did,  he  was  to  be  shot.  But  he  fioared 
not  those  who  could  only  destroy  the  body,  and  continued  to  pray.  He  said, '  MaMS^  me 
canna  give  up  praying,  Massa  Jeans  too  good  to  me.' 

"  His  valuable  life  was  twice  spared  in  a  remarkable  manner :  two  men,  on  separate 
occasions,  who  were  going  to  witness  against  him  for  praying,  died  on  their  way.  By  his 
efforts  and  example  he  has  done  much  for  the  cause  here,  and  he  bore  his  late  affliction  with 
great  patience.  He  used  to  tell  ns  that  be  feared  not  to  die,  he  was  waiting  for  Jesns  to 
take  bim  to  Himself;  and  we  can  say  with  confidence,  '  His  end  was  peace.'  " 

SOUTH  AFRICA. 

The  state  of  the  Mission  Churches  in  the  several  districts  of  this  extended  field  presents 
an  aspect  generally  differing  but  little  from  the  Report  of  last  year.  The  Missionaries  have 
not  had  to  mourn  over  any  matetial  decline  in  the  etete  of  their  ooogwgations,  but,  on  the 
other  hand,  they  have  not  been  ^le  to  report  any  considerable  progress.  This  moat  in 
some  degree  be  attributed  to  the  deprassed  conditien  of  the  coloured  people^  arising  from 
the  loss  of  cattle  and  the  severe  drought  of  sncoeaaive  years.  From  these  causes  their 
extreme  poverty  and  general  distrCM  have  bee»  grievoos ;  aad  although  diring  the  present 
year  these  evils  have  been  alleviated  by  partial  rains,  yet  they  oontinne  to  feel  the  disastrous 
effects  of  former  failures  both  in  their  cattle  and  their  lands.  This  cannot  be  better 
described  than  in  the  Report  of  Peelton,  from  which  we  give  the  following  extracts :— 


EOB  JUNK,  1864.  167 

**  is  givfaig  »]«porl  af  tiii«  Steiticn,  tht-  people,  and  tfaeir  oendifeieo,  for  tbe  year  just 
closed,  reference  mast  be  made  to  faeU  which  have  very  much  affected  tba*  cooditioix 
during  the  laat  two  years,  namely,  the  severe  drought  which  has  rested  so  heavily  on  the 
inhftbitanti  of  Aim  land,,  bat  whicfa>  through  God's  great  mercy,  is  now,  for  this  season  at 
least,  brohen  np,  and  the  happy  result  is,  that  all  hearts  loe  cheered  by  the  prospect  of  an 
abandaat  harvest  of  the-  native  crops. 

'*  The  year  just  cloaed  opened  upoa  m  ynUb,  a  prospeot  sad  in  the  extreme,  for  the  drought 
whfiefa  had  8»  greatly  affected  previeua  harvests  held  on  till  it  was  almost  too  late  to  put 
seed  into  tke  ground  at  all :  but  quite  at  the  end  of  the  season  partial  rains  fell,  sufficient 
to  get  «OfH«  SMd  sown ;  bat  the  soil,  having  been  softened  only  a  few  inches  deep,  soon 
becMse  agaia  dxy,  and  the  tandar  crops  deooped,  and  all  hope  for  any  harvest  waa  well-nigh 
gone.  Bat  jiiat  whea  all  appeared  so  dark,  early  in  Febmary  &  partial  Fain  fell  which  satu«- 
rated  the  ground,  and  oalled  forth  meetings  for  thanksgi^ii]^  and  praise  to  God,  who  had 
sent  rdief  in  answer  to  oar  urgent  prayers.  From  that  time  showers  continued  to  fall 
which  matored'  the  cvops ;  and  thoo^  late  and  very'Umited,  becanse  so  small  a  quantity  of 
seed  ooold  be  sown,  yet  for  a  while  there  was  food  far  all.  The  physical  energies  of  the 
peeyk,  so  leog  depressed,  wen  again  reviled,  and  new  life  was  inlased  into  ererything ; 
and  in  nothing  was  the  change  more  apparent  than  in  the  activities  of  the  Christian  life  of 
tike  Ckureh^members.  For  that  state  of  depvession  of  the  bodily  powers,  which  we  wit* 
nessed,  materially  affected  tbe  miad,  and  a  oovrespending  inanimate  state  pervaded  the 
religions  exercises  and  life  of  the  people.  The  Sabbath  services  and  meetings  were  indeed 
wen  attended,  and  most  appropriate  prayers  were  offered  up  to  God  in  their  gatherings,  yet 
there  waa  a  depression  aboat  it  all  whtdi  eonld  not  but  tall  heavily  upon  those  who  wei^ 
labouring  among  them. 

**  Bat  as  soon  as  there  was  a  retam  of  abundance^  the  change  was  apparent  and  most 
satisfactory.  The  Evangelists  were  out  more  frequently  among  the  heathen.  The  careless 
and  indifferent  were  looked  up  and  brongfat  to  the  boose  of  Qod,  A  desire  for  doing  more 
lor  the  spread  of  the  Gospel  among  their  heathen  countrymen  began  to  stir  many  hearts, 
which  led  to  a  public  meeting,  originating  entiiely  with  the  people,  and  which  might  be 
properly  designated  a  Home  Missionary  Meeting.  It  was,  without  question,  the  best  native 
meeting  I  have  ever  witnessed.  The  Rev.  R.  Birt,  the  senior  Missionary,  presided  on  the 
ooeaaioB ;  when  good  plans  were  disoossed  and  resolved  upon ;  among  others,  the  support 
of  a  Native  Evangelist  among  the  heathen  in  our  district.^' 

The  evils  described  in  the  foregoing  atatenent  were  not  restricted,  to  any  given  district, 
but  prevailed,  aa  a  greater  or  less  degree,  throughoni  Soath  Afirtca.  But,  notwithstanding 
these  aflietive  and  successive  visitations,  depriving  the  people  of  the  ability  to  contribute 
their  usual  amount  of  support  towards  the  several  Missions,  they  manifested  still  a  willing 
mind,  and  even  from  the  depth  of  their  poverty  the  riches  of  their  liberality  abounded.  No 
material  dedeasion  is  found  in  the  contributions  of  any  station,  and  from  several  there  is  a 
decided  increase. 

The  internal  and  spiritual  condition  of  the  Native  Churches,  though  not  free  from  occa- 
nons  of  anxiety  and  regret,  is  nevertheless  regarded  by  our  Miaaionary  Brethren  generally 
with  gcatitode  and  hope. 

The  Rev.  A.  Robson,  of  Port  EUzabetb,  one  of  the  oldest  labourers  in  South  Africs, 
reports — 

"  The  attendance  on  Divine  Service  both  in  the  wedc  and  on  the  Sabbath,  and  the  state 
of  the  schools,  are  the  same  as  last  year.  The  ohapel,  though  recently  enkrged,  is  quite 
fttU  on  the  Sabbath  evening,  and  the  audience  is  always  very  attentive. 

'*  The  past  year  has  indMd  been  one  of  trial,  espedally  to  the  poor  people.  The  neces- 
saries of  life  have  been  very  expensive,  but,  thank  God,  we  have  now  been  favoured  with 
rain  :  last  night  it  fell  in  torrents,  and  there  is  the  project  of  better  times. 

**  The  people's  contributions  towards  the  support  of  the  Gospel  at  this  Station  amount, 
la  the  whole,  to  upwards  of  £150. 

"  The  great  Head  of  the  Church  has  been  ftlling  up  the  vacancies  that  death  had  made. 
I  have,  during  the  past  year,  received  twenty  into  the  Church  as  full  members.  Two  more 
stand  proposed,  and  there  are  several  candidates  for  baptism  and  communion.  From 
several  of  the  people  I  have  received  small  tokens  of  regard,  which  are  enhanced  in  value, 
owing  to  the  princtple  whence  they  proceeded,  namely,  love  to  me  for  my  Master's  sake." 


168  MISSIONARY  MAGAZINE 

The  Journals  of  our  Misnonarj  Brethren  contain  many  interesting  notices  of  departed 
Christian  friends.    From  these  we  select  the  following : — 

"  During  the  past  year/'  obserres  the  HeT.  A.  Robson,  '*  three  of  our  most  liberal  sup- 
porters have  been  remoTed  by  death.  In  the  demise  of  one  excellent  man  the  loss  is  very 
great.  He  not  merely,  according  to  his  means,  subscribed  liberally,  but  inflpenced  others, 
and  was  always  ready,  in  everything  connected  with  the  cause,  to  lend  a  helping  hand.  I 
have  received  much  kindness  from  him.  His  death  was  sudden,  and  induced  by  an  act  of 
mercy.  Passing  a  European  lying  under  a  burning  sun  in  a  state  of  intoxication,  he  called 
another  of  our  members  to  his  aid,  and  carried  him  home.  On  entering  the  man's  abode 
he  fell  down ;  the  blood  streamed  out  of  his  mouth,  he  became  speechless,  was  carried  to 
his  own  abode,  and  expired.  He  was  highly  respected  both  by  the  natives  and  Europeans, 
and  there  was  a  rush  of  both  classes  to  his  abode,  who  also  attended  his  interment.  His 
employer  bore  the  expenses  of  the  funeral,  and  made  handsome  presents  to  the  bereaved 
vridow.  His  death  was  noticed  and  his  character  eulogized  in  the  newspapers  as  a  respect- 
able, industrious,  good  man,  who  had  been  twenty  years  in  the  employ  of  the  Mayor  of 
this  town.  He  was  formerly  a  drunkard :  simple  was  the  means  of  his  conversion.  Passing 
him  one  day  in  the  vicinity  of  the  town,  I  said,  *  Henry,  my  Father  has  a  large  house  above ; 
there  is  room  for  you,  and  I  vrish  to  meet  you  there.'  After  this  he  became  a  changed  man, 
A  member  of  the  Church,  and  a  zealous  advocate  of  temperance." 

The  Mission  Stations  beytmd  the  Orange  River  have  suffered  in  common  vrith  those  in 
the  South,  though  in  a  less  degree ;  and  our  Missionaries  appear  to  have  been  exempted 
from  the  difficulties  and  impediments  from  without,  to  which,  in  some  former  years,  they 
had  been  subjected.  Our  devoted  Brother  the  Ret.  William  Ross,  of  Lekatlono,  died 
«midst  the  affectionate  sorrows  of  his  people  in  July  last,  and  the  Rev.  William  Ashtok, 
who  has  for  several  years  laboured  at  Kuruman,  where  he  has  very  efficiently  conducted 
the  Printing  Press,  has  taken  charge  of  the  vacant  Station. 

The  Rev.  Robert  Moffat  continues,  in  his  advancing  years,  most  abundant  in  labours, 
as  the  following  passages  selected  from  his  last  Report  of  the  Mission  at  Kuruman  will 
evince : — 

**  Time,  ever  on  the  vring,  has  brought  us  to  the  beginning  of  another  year,  and  reminds, 
me  that  I  ought  to  draw  up  a  report  of  this  Station.  We  have  to  record  the  goodness  of 
•onr  Heavenly  Father  in  not  only  sparing  our  lives,  but  granting  us  health,  by  which  we 
have  been  enabled  in  a  measure  to  attend  to  the  important  duties  which  continually  occupy 
our  time.  These  are  too  varied  and  often  too  numerous  to  allow  each  to  be  efficiently  per- 
formed ;  but  better  have  too  much  to  do  than  too  little. 

"  Among  the  members  of  our  Church  deaths  have  been  more  than  usually  numerous. 
Some  families  have  been  attacked  with  fever  of  a  typhoid  kind.  Five  have  died  during  the 
year ;  two  of  them  in  the  course  of  nature,  full  of  years,  and  in  the  full  assurance  of  ^th. 
One  man  was  still  in  the  prime  of  life,  and  had  for  many  years  been  a  useful  member  of  the 
Church.  The  two  other  were  sisters,  comparatiyely  young,  and  whose  death  was  a  loss 
deeply  felt  by  all.  The  eldest  particularly  was  a  most  exemplary  Christian,  the  wife  of  one 
who  knew  nothing  about  heart  religion.  Ever  since  she  was  received  into  the  Church  she 
has  been  an  example  to  all  by  her  intelligence,  love,  and  good  works.  No  one  could  see 
anything  else  than  loveliness  in  her  Christianity.  As  she  lived,  so  she  died,  without  the 
shadow  of  a  cloud  to  darken  her  bright  prospect  of  joining  the  redeemed  above.  When 
asked  if  she  had  no  desire  to  recover  health,  and  be  useful  to  her  friends  and  children,  she 
replied,  that  were  she  spared  she  could  continue  her  endeavours  and  prayers  for  them, 
and  especially  for  her  anbelieving  husband ;  but,  lifting  her  hand  heavenward,  added, 
'  Jesus  lives,  and  He  can  do  for  tbem  what  He  has  done  for  me.  I  have  no  wish  to  live 
an  hour  longer  than  He  wills.'  Finding  it  very  difficult  to  articulate,  she  would  occasionally 
try  hard  to  say,  *  Oh  that  I  were  able  to  sp^,  that  I  might  tell  all  how  happy  I  feel  in 
the  prospect  of  being  soon  with  Jesus.' 

"  The  outward  affairs  and  appearance  of  the  station  continue  to  advance. 

"  The  school,  to  which  my  daughter  attends  with  unwearied  energy,  continues  to  give 
entire  satisfaction  ;  and  we  only  vrish  we  had  the  means  of  leading  on  the  more  intelligent 
to  higher  branches. 

''Our  Auxiliary,  notvrithstanding  the  late  frost  of  last  year  half  destroying  the  crops, 
and  the  not  infrequent  visits  of  the  cattle  epidemic,  amounts  to  £64.  It  ought,  however, 
to  have  been  more ;  and  I  shall  not  feel  satisfied  till  I  see  aU  our  people  more  grateful  for 


t-oR  TOKE,  1864.  169 

their  prhileges,  uicl  profetlort  more  anxious  for  the  salration  of  others.  Nearly  £10  of 
the  above  was  contribiited  by  Europeans. 

"The  Chnrch  amoog  the  Batlaru  tribe  presents  an  encouraging  aspect;  anJ,  from  an 
mereMing  number  of  candidates,  seven  adults  have  been  added.  Our  native  schoolmaster, 
Motaue,  itattoned  among  that  people,  pursues  his  work  of  Instruction  vnth  his  vrontedzeal, 
aided  by  others  in  public  services  and  visiting  neighbouring  villages.  We  continue  pur 
visits  every  alternate  Sabbath,  preaching  at  the  two  principal  towns,  and  administering  the 
liord's  Supper  about  every  two  months. 

"  We  hare  just  ihiished  the  week  for  special  prayer,  which  was  well  attended  every 
morning  at  sunrise.    Oh  that  it  may  be  followed  with  a  rich  outpouring  of  heavenly  grace  V* 

The  intelligence  received  from  our  Missionaries  setUed  in  the  country  of  the  Matebile, 
under  the  despotic  and  barbarous  Moselekatse,  presents  many  discouragements  and  diffi- 
culties  with  which  they  have  to  contend.  These  arise  chiefly  from  the  selfishness,  caprice, 
and  cruel  despotism  of  the  aged  chief;  and  they  will  be  best  described  in  the  language  of 
the  Missionaries.    The  Rev.  William  Sykes  writes— 

'•  During  the  kst  year,  I  am  sorry  to  say,  we  have  mode  very  little  advance  in  teaching, 
though  I  believe  we  have  gained  not  a  little  in  the  estimation  of  the  people. 

"  We  have  our  Sabbath  morning  service  as  usual,  and  three  village  services  during  the 
week.  Taking  the  average  attendance  at  the  four  services,  I  should  say  about  a  hundred 
people  hear  the  Gospel  weekly,  of  whom  the  larger  part  are  male  adults.  As  a  rule  the 
people  are  attentive,  as  if  anxious  to  understand  what  is  said.  We  often  find  at  the  close 
of  the  service  that  they  have  understood  the  most  part,  although  the  expositions  they  have 
listened  to  have  been  on  subjects  surprisingly  strange  to  them.  But  it  is  to  be  feared  that 
the  most  that  can  be  said  of  the  result  is,  that  it  is  but  the  hearing  of  the  ear. 

"  As  to  schools,  alas  I  the  prospect  is  dark,  rery  dark.  And  what  is  a  Mission  without 
its  School  ?  I  have  tried  times  without  number  to  induce  the  people  to  learn  to  read.  I 
have  spent  hours  again  and  again  in  explaining  to  them  the  advantages  of  being  able  to  read 
and  write.  Some  have  said  they  would  learn  to  read  at  once ;  but  when  they  found  that 
it  would  require  weeks,  perhaps  months,  the  resolution  vanished.  Others  have  said  that 
they  would  learn  if  I  would  give  them  something  for  learning;  which  I  always  decline  to 
do.  I  think  nine  out  of  ten  individuals  with  whom  I  have  talked  on  learning  to  read,  have 
said  that  they  would  Icam  but  for  fear  of  the  King.  In  conversation  with  people  who  know 
us  best,  they  have  frequently  declared  that  that  was  the  reason  why  people  did  not  learn — it 
being  their  settled  conviction  that,  if  it  were  once  known  that  they  could  read,  they  would 
be  killed  immediately ;  and  I  am  the  more  convinced  that  this  is  the  real  reason  since  I 
made  a  recent  visit  to  Moselekatse,  who  has  spent  most  of  last  year  about  thirty  or  forty 
miles  from  us.  Having  travelled  nearly  three  days  with  the  waggon,  we  came  to  the  King's 
temporary  kraah  He  welcomed  us  heartily,  and  was.  most  friendly  during  our  short  visit. 
It  was  the  first  time  I  had  conversed  with  his  Majesty  in  his  own  language.  When  the 
Sabbath  drew  near,  I  was  very  anxious  to  address  the  large  number  of  people  who  were 
about  the  King,  but  was  not  sanguine  of  obtaining  permission.  On  Saturday  afternoon, 
having  prayed  to  God  to  clear  my  way  for  proclaiming  His  message  of  love  and  mercy  to 
those  poor  benighted  souls,  I  went  and  sat  a  little  while  with  the  aged  chief,  and  told  him 
that  next  day  would  be  God's  day,  and  I  was  hoping  to  tell  his  people  the  words  of  God* 
To  which  he  replied,  *  Yes,  my  child.'  I  thanked  him  and  retired,  reminding  him  that  I 
should  come  agam  in  the  morning.  Next  morning,  when  the  sun  became  warm  and  the 
poor  old  man  began  to  stir,  I  immediately  appeared  and  repeated  my  request  of  the 
previous  afternoon.  He  asked  me  if  I  was  begging  meat ;  to  which  I  answered,  I  need  not 
beg  that  day,  be  had  supplied  me  well  the  day  before ;  but  I  was  begging  for  the  ears  of  all 
his  people,  that  I  might  tell  them  words  about  God's  love.  When  he  saw  I  was  determined, 
he  left  me  and  went  into  his  private  courtyard.  I  waited  awhile,  thinking  he  would  send 
orders  for  the  people  to  assemble ;  but  nobody  appeared ;  so  I  followed  him  and  repeated 
my  request.  Straightway  he  gave  the  word  of  command,  and  in  a  few  minutes  the  largest 
congregation  that  I  have  seen  in  the  Matebele  country  assembled  for  worship.  I  wished  I 
eonld  see  such  a  gathering  every  week.  They  were  most  attentive  and  reverential,  though 
the  white  man's  singing  was  amusing  to  some. 

**  On  the  Monday  after  my  service  I  was  determined  to  try  to  ascertain  the  mind  of  the 
aged  chief  on  the  subject  of  teaching*  I  told  him  my  heart  was  weeping  every  day  because 
his  people  rdfosed  to  learn  to  read.  We  had  come  a  long  way  to  live  amongst  his  people, 
hoping  to  teach  them  to  read  the  words  of  God,  as  well  as  to  expound  those  words  to  them. 
It  was  our  dedre  to  teach  them  to  read,  that  they  might  see  for  themselves  what  God  had 

a  ^

said  to  them.  The  chief  looked  at  me  intensely,  and  one  of  his  attendants,  supposing  his 
royal  master  had  not  understood,  began  to  repeat  my  words,  but  was  interrupted  by  the 
chiefs  saying, '  I  have  heard,  he  speaks ;'  and,  addressing  me,  he  added,  *  I  tell  my  people 
my  own  words.'    I  answered, '  It  is  right ;  but  God  has  spoken  to  all  men  in  His  book, 

and '    Here  his  Majesty  interrupted  and  laughed  at  me,  with  his  hundred  or  more 

attendants,  for  several  minutes.  When  they  were  silent  I  urged  my  petition  on  behalf  of 
his  people,  that,  if  it  were  for  fear  of  their  chief  that  they  refused  to  learn,  I  begged  that 
he  would  give  them  his  full  permission  ;  but  he  raised  another  and  more  extended  laugh 
against  me.  When  they  were  silent,  I  repeated  my  petition,  but  with  a  similar  result ; 
and,  having  no  further  opportunity  of  speaking,  I  returned  to  my  waggon  more  depressed 
on  the  teaching  question  than  I  had  been  before." 

The  Rby.  Thomas  Thomas  describes  the  state  and  prospects  of  the  Mission  in  similar 
terms  of  sorrow  and  disappointment. 

Under  obstacles  and  discouragements  so  painful,  our  Missionaries  have  the  strongest 
claims  for  our  sympathy  and  prayers ;  and  we  trust  that,  sustained  by  their  Divine  Master, 
their  faith  will  not  fail  nor  their  spirits  droop,  but  that  they  vrill  toil  on  and  faint  not. 
Without  the  sure  promises  of  God  our  Saviour,  we  might  indeed  not  only  despond,  but 
despair.  But  let  us  remember  that,  dark  as  are  the  minds  of  the  Matebele,  and  hard  and 
cruel  as  is  the  heart  of  their  chief,  no  less  hard  and  no  less  dark  were  the  King  of  Lattakoo 
and  his  Bechuana  subjects  when  Robert  Moffat  and  his  fellow-labourers  commenced  thor 
work  of  mercy  in  their  midst.  Often  were  their  lamentations  renewed  as  they  witnessed  the 
barbarous  customs  and  debased  habits  of  those  they  sought  to  save ;  but  as  their  difficulties 
multiplied  they  laboured  with  greater  zeal,  and  prayed  the  more  earnestly ;  and,  as  *'  the 
husbandman  waiteth  for  the  precious  fruit  of  the  earth,  and  hath  long  patience  for  it,  until 
he  receive  the  early  and  latter  rain/'  so  they  waited ;  and  we  know  the  result.  "  The 
Spirit  was  poured  out  from  on  high,  and  the  wilderness  became  a  fruitful  field."  What  the 
Bechuanas  were  the  Matebele  ares  but,  through  God's  power  and  grace,  the  Matebele  will 
hereafter  become,  in  social  elevation  and  Christian  character,  what  the  believers  of  Kuruman 
long  have  been. 

CHINA. 

It  was  announced  in  the  last  Report  that,  in  addition  to  the  Colony  of  Hong  Kono,  and 
the  Cities  of  Canton,  Amot,  and  Shanohab,  our  Missionaries  had  entered  on  new  fields 
of  labour  in  Hankow,  Tibn-tsin,  and  Pbkino,  and  the  results  now  to  be  narrated  will  be 
found  highly  encouraging. 

BONO   KONO. 

The  Itev.  Dr.  Legge,  with  his  native  colleague  Tsun-sheen,  and  other  Chinese  assistants! 
have  prosecuted  their  varied  labours  with  unwearied  diligence,  and  from  the  Report  for  the 
year  the  following  interesting  particulars  are  selected  :^- 

'*  Our  regular  Chinese  services  have  amounted,  since  the  new  chapels  were  opened^  to 
twelve  a  week.  The  year  has  certainly  been  one  in  labours  more  abundant,  and  yet  I  haye 
not  seen  so  much  fruit  as  in  some  previous  years.  I  baptized  eighteen  adults,  one-half  of 
whom,  however,  were  convicts  in  the  gaol.  Some  of  the  friends  who  were  baptized  in  Poklo 
have  come  to  reside  in  Hong  Kong,  and  were  admitted,  by  the  suffrage  of  the  Church,  after 
some  time,  to  the  Lord's  Supper.  A  few  members  have  died,  and  several  have  removed 
from  the  island.  Our  Church  roll  now  contains  the  names  of  seventy-eight  individuals  in 
full  communion — fifty-four  males  and  twenty-four  females. 

"  Ac  our  annual  meeting  on  the  8th  of  February,  the  first  day  of  the  Chinese  year,  I 
brought  the  fact  of  the  few  additions  to  the  Church  during  the  last  twelve  months  before 
the  meeting ;  and  we  made  prayer  to  God  that  He  would  command  His  blessing  and  help 
us  to  do  our  duty,  so  that  we  might  have  to  praise  Him  for  a  different  result  when  we  came 
together  on  the  next  year.  There  was  a  good  spirit :  not  a  few  seemed  to  have  a  mind 
both  to  work  and  to  pray. 

"1  would  not  have  you  think  that  I  am  discouraged  on  reviewing  the  year's  history,  and 
I  shall  be  very  sorry  if  I  produce  any  feeling  of  that  kind.    But,  with  the  Church  that  has 


^OR  JUNE,  1864.  1^1 

been  gathered,  and  the  chapels  that  haye  been  boilt,  we  could  desire  that  our  accessions 
from  the  heathen  were  more  numerous. 

"  Among  the  convicts  under  sentence  of  imprisonment  for  life,  or  for  a  term  of  years, 
there  are  now  tweWe  men  remaining  of  eighteen,  whom  I  baptized  at  different  times.  I 
have  resolved,  after  long  deliberation,  to  administer  to  them  the  ordinance  of  the  Lord's 
Supper.  They  have  repeatedly  asked  me  to  do  so.  Their  understanding  of  the  way  of  sal- 
vation is  clear.  Their  conduct  is  very  good :  the  testimony  of  their  superintendent  is, 
*  They  are  tlie  best  conducted  of  all  the  men  under  my  charge.'  The  men  under  long 
sentences  were  removed  during  the  summer  from  Victoria  to  an  island  in  the  harbour.  As 
we  still  conduct  a  service  in  the  gaol,  this  gives  us  two  services  with  prisoners  on  the 
Sabbath.  A  visit  to  the  island  takes  three  hours  of  the  day,  but  I  cannot  think  of  giving  it 
up.  My  experience  in  preaching  to  these  children  of  crime  hss  been  refreshing  to  my  own 
soul,  and  strengthening  to  my  faith.  Our  Gospel  is  the  gracious  and  powerful  message  of 
mercy  of  Him  who  did  not  shrink,  when  He  was  on  earth,  from  publicans  and  sinners." 

The  Church  at  Pok-lo,  which,  after  the  martyrdom  of  its  venerable  founder  Ch'ka,  was 
for  a  time  scattered  abroad,  has  been  again  collected,  and  the  members  assemble  in  two 
adjoining  villages  for  Christian  worship  without  molestation.  This  gratifying  fact  is  stated 
by  Dr.  Legge  as  follows  : — 

*'  I  often  wished  to  adventure  a  visit  to  Pok-lo  during  the  year,  but  being  here  alone,  t 
found  it  impossible  to  leave  Hong  Kong  long  enough  for  the  purpose  ;  but  one  and  another 
of  the  members  of  the  Church  have  gone  there  repeatedly.  We  have  also  employed  three  of 
the  Christians  themselves  to  act  as  catechists,  and  they  have  come  here  from  time  to  time 
with  their  reports  and  journals.  The  converts  remain,  in  the  mass,  firm  in  their  Christian 
profession,  and  many  around  are  ready  to  cast  in  their  lot  with  them. 

'*  The  Chinese  Government  has  done  nothing  to  redress  the  wrongs  of  1861 ;  but  there  is 
no  persecution  now  bat  what  is  of  a  petty  character.  The  Christians  themselves  proposed 
that,  leaving  Pok-lo  city  for  the  present,  we  should  build  two  small  chapels,  one  in  the 
village  of  !Nam>sheat'ong,  and  one  in  that  of  Kot-leng.  A  Christian  at  each  place  gave  the 
ground  ;  the  rest  of  them  raised  50  dollars ;  there  remained  nearly  250  dollars  of  the  money 
collected  in  1861  for  a  chapel  in  Pok-lo,  and  the  Church  here  supplied  100  dollars  more: 
these  400  dollars  it  was  hoped  would  suffice  for  the  object ;  but  it  turned  out  that  100 
dollars  more  were  required :  I  stated  the  case  when  most  of  our  members  were  present, 
and  the  money  was  contributed  upon  the  spot.  The  two  chapels  have  been  opened  for  the 
worship  of  God  during  the  present  month  (February). 

"  These  are  facts  which  I  lay  before  you  simply  and  briefly.  I  believe  the  work  there  is 
of  God,  and  that  it  will  go  on." 

CANtOK. 

In  this  city,  in  which  Dr.  Morrison  commenced  his  Mission,  the  labours  of  oar  Mission* 
aries  have  long  been  attended  with  many  discouragements  and  with  limited  success  \  but  the 
Report  of  Messrs.  Chalmers  and  Turner,  for  the  pAst  year,  which  will  be  found  in  the 
larger  Report,  encourages  brighter  hopes  for  the  future. 

ASlOY. 

The  Kative  Christians  in  the  villages  around  this  populous  city  have  endured  much  penc<* 
cution  from  their  heathen  countrymen  ;  but  they  have  suffered  with  patience  and  flrmness  *, 
and  it  is  hoped  that  through  the  intervention  of  Sir  Frederick  Bruce,  our  representative  at 
Peking,  the  Chinese  Government  will,  according  to  the  provisions  of  the  Treaty  with  Great 
Britain  and  France,  adopt  decisive  measures  for  the  protection  of  their  Christian  subjects, 
and  that  hereafter  they  may  enjoy  freedom  in  the  exercise  of  their  faith  and  worship.  But, 
notwithstanding  these  acts  of  hostility,  the  cause  of  God  in  the  city  has  continued  to  gather 
strength,  and  the  journals  of  Messrs.  Stronach  and  Maooow  an  (the  latter  having,  during 
the  year,  removed  from  Shanghae),  continue,  as  heretofore,  to  afford  ample  evidence  of  the 
presence  and  blessing  of  God  with  His  faithful  servants. 

"  With  much  thankfulness,''  write  the  Missionaries,  "  we  have,  at  the  beginning  of 
another  year,  to  record  God's  great  goodness  to  us,  and  the  blessings  He  continues  to  vouch* 
safe  on  our  labours. 


1712  MIdSIOKAKY  MAGAZINE 

**  During  the  past  half-year  we  have  had  the  privilege  to  receive  into  the  Chnrch  of  Christ 
twenty-three  new  converts  in  Amoy,  and  eeventeen  at  our  Out-stations.  All  these /or/y 
new  members  have  been  long  under  instruction  and  examination  as  applicants  for  admission 
into  the  Church,  and  have  given  satisfactory  evidence  of  the  sincerity  of  their  faith  in  Christ, 
and  of  their  professed  devotion  unto  Him. 

**  During  the  past  half-year  five  women  and  one  man  have  been  removed  by  death. 
Several  of  these  women  are  much  regretted,  as  they  used  constantly  to  attend  Mrs. 
Stronach's  female  meetings,  and  occasionally  to  lead  in  prayer,  greatly  to  the  edification  of 
their  sisters  m  Christ.  One  of  these  women  died  after  a  few  days'  illness  i  but,  though  her 
death  was  so  sudden  and  unexpected,  she  was  well  prepared  for  her  end.  She  told  her 
husband,  who  is  still  a  heathen,  that  she  was  in  perfect  peace,  and  that  she  trusted  in  Jesos 
and  was  going  to  Him.  In  the  morning  of  her  last  day,  when  she  felt  herself  dying,  she 
sent  for  two  Christian  women  to  come  and  be  present  with  her  when  she  died,  lest  her 
heathen  relatives  should  have  their  usual  idolatrous  services  for  her. 

**  Our  present  number  of  Church-members  in  Amoy  is  311.  Adding  39  at  our  Out- 
stations,  the  united  number  under  our  care  is  350. 

**  The  two  schools  for  the  children  of  our  Church-members  are  carried  on  under  cir- 
cumstances of  encouragement. 

"  The  room  in  Chio-loh  continues  to  be  opened  daily,  as  well  as  the  two  chapels  for 
preaching ;  and  on  the  Lord's  day  regular  services  are  held  in  all,  and  are  encouragingly 
attended. 

"  The  Ouf-etathnSt  five  in  number,  have  been  visited  this  half-year  by  Mr.  J.  Stronach, 
who  communicates  many  gratifying  instances  of  success. 

"  Dr.  Carnegie  still  continues  his  valuable  services  in  the  Chinese  Hospital^  assisted  there 
by  Lui-chin-tiong,  an  old  scholar  of  Mr.  J.  Stronach's,  who  is  now  one  of  our  Church- 
members.  Preaching  is  still  conducted  in  the  Hall  of  the  Hospital  by  Mr.  A.  Stronach 
every  Wednesday  morning,  and  is  alwavs  well  attended  by  both  men  and  women,  who  listen 
seriously  to  the  Gospel.  The  other  public  services  there,  on  Mondays  and  Fridays,  are  con- 
ducted by  Missionaries  of  the  American  Dutch  Reformed  Church,  and  those  belonging  to 
the  English  Presbyterian  Board.  Besides  the  people  df  the  city,  patients  from  all  parts  of 
the  surrounding  country,  coming  for  medical  relief,  have  attended  these  services,  and  some 
of  them  have  •  received  the  love  of  the  truth,  that  they  might  be  ^saved.*  These  have 
renounced  idolatry,  and,  returning  to  their  distant  homes,  now  openly  worship  the  living 
God.  The  influence  of  the  new  lives  of  these  witnesses  for  Christ  has  been  blessed  in 
leading  several  of  their  neighbours  to  inquire  after  the  way  of  life,  and  to  meet  together 
with  the  Christians  for  reading  the  Scriptures  and  for  prayer. 

"  Mr.  Macgowan,  after  four  months'  study  of  the  dialect,  began  his  public  labours,  and 
now  takes  his  share  in  conducting  the  Lord's  day  services,  both  in  Amoy  and  at  the  Out- 
stations." 

SHANGBAE. 

Our  Mission,  in  common  with  those  of  other  Societies,  has  suffered  from  the  unsettled 
state  of  the  city,  as  well  as  the  surrounding  country.  The  Imperial  forces,  aided  by  fo- 
reigners,  have  maintained  continued  warfare  with  the  Tae-ping  insurgents  ;  extensive  tracts 
of  country  have  been  made  desolate,  and  the  inhabitants  have  sought  refuge  in  the  city, 
which  is  now  over-crowded  with  these  unhappy  strangers.  Towards  the  close  of  the  year 
the  City  of  Soochow,  which  had  long  been  in  possession  of  the  insurgents,  was  taken  by  the 
Imperial  forces  and  theh:  foreign  auxiliaries,  and  the  conquest  was  followed  by  the  most 
atrocious  cruelties  on  the  part  of  the  victors  towards  the  vanquished.  Surrounded  by  such 
exciting  and  revolting  scenes,  the  anxiety  and  distress  of  our  Missionaries  must  have  been 
unceasing,  and  the  Directors  are  thankful  that  both  their  health  and  their  lives  have  been 
preserved^that  they  have  prosecuted  their  various  labours  with  zeal  and  constancy — and 
that  these  have  been  attended,  through  the  grace  ani  power  of  their  Divine  Master,  with  a 
cheering  measure  of  success.    The  following  are  extracts  from  their  Report  :— 

''  The  state  of  transidon  that  has  so  much  marked  the  native  commnnity  of  this  place 
during  the  past  year  has,  of  course,  largely  affected  our  Mission  work.  The  people  have 
been  very  unsettled,  owing  to  the  existing  condition  of  things.  Driven  from  their  homes  by 
the  rebellion,  multitudes  have  been  reduced  to  poverty,  and  have  been  staying  in  Shanghae 
only  for  a  time.  The  success  that  has  attended  the  operations  of  the  Anglo-Chinese  force 
has  enabled  many  to  remove  into  the  country,  and  in  this  way  constant  migrations  ar«  ttking 
place. 


POB  TONB,  1864.  173 

"  Our  maia  work  of  pretobing  the  Gotpel  hM  bora  TroremHtingly  carried  on.  Th« 
f  arions  chapels  and  station!  connected  with  the  Miuion  haye  been  opened  from  day  to  day, 
and  the  word  of  life  hu  thos  been  announced  to  thousands. 

"  At  our  large  chapel  in  the  city  there  has  been  an  average  attendance  of  a  hundred  and 
fifty  persons  daily,  except  on  the  Sabbath,  when  the  number  is  at  least  double.  On  the 
latter  occasion  the  attention  and  quiet  obserred  by  the  audience  ha?e  been  very  encouraging, 
and  altogether  the  place  has  proved  a  noble  sphere  for  the  object  we  have  in  view.  Thirty, 
two  have  been  admitted  by  baptism  into  the  fellowship  of  the  Church  during  the  past  year, 
and  upwards  of  a  hundred  have  inserted  their  names  in  the  list  of  inquirers  within  the  last 
four  months.  Were  it  not  for  the  continual  change  taking  place  among  the  natives  in  the 
matter  of  residence,  we  have  no  doubt  that  there  would  be  a  much  more  flourishing  and 
settled  Church  here  than  there  is  now.  The  number  in  the  city  on  the  roll  of  membership 
is  $weniy'Jlve,  who  may  be  relied  on  as  appreciating  the  value  of  Christian  ordinances. 
Bnt,  apart  from  the  mere  matter  of  admission  to  Christian  fellowship,  we  believe  the  oppor* 
tunity  afforded  for  preaching  the  Gospel  to  sucb  crowds  of  people  is  unequalled  in  China. 
May  God  bless  the  word  spoken  still  more  and  more. 

"  The  second  chapel  in  the  city  has  been  enlarged  lately,  and  is  conveniently  situated  for 
passers*by.  The  attendance  ranges  from  fifty  to  a  hundred  a  day.  It  is  increased  when  the 
foreign  Missionary  is  present ;  but  this  sphere  of  labour  is  particularly  under  the  care  of  the 
native  pastor,  who  resides  in  the  building.  A  school  of  ten  boys,  the  children  of  converts, 
has  been  opened  here,  and  it  is  intended  to  form  a  seminary  of  forty  or  fifty  youths  in  the 
course  of  this  year. 

'*  In  the  HoRPiTAL,  under  the  superintendence  of  Dr.  Henderson,  the  number  of  patients 
has  been  at  least  as  great  as  in  former  years.  Every  day,  from  twelve  to  one  o'clock,  a 
Native  preacher  is  at  work  amongst  them,  occasionally  assisted  by  one  of  us,  and  thus  the 
Gospel  continues  tobe  diffused  on  an  extensive  scale  throughout  a  large  portion  of  the  suffering 
community.  Certain  alterations  having  been  made  in  the  opening  to  the  hospital,  the  place 
is  now  easily  available  for  other  religious  services,  which  are  about  to  be  commenced  in  the 
afternoon  and  evening. 

"  The  English  chapel,  so  long  in  connection  with  us,  for  the  benefit  of  the  Mission  and  the 
foreign  residents,  has  been  taken  down.  A  new  and  commodious  place  of  worship  is  being 
built  on  the  same  site,  at  the  expense  of  the  congregation  and  others. 

"  As  to  our  Country  Stations,  the  nearest  is  about  three  miles  distant.  The  number  in 
attendance  every  Sabbath  is  about  thirty,  and  three  have  been  admitted  daring  the  year. 
Three  other  Stations  have  been  formed  at  varying  distances  of  two  and  three  miles,  which 
are  visited  by  the  native  preacher  regularly,  and  new  life  seems  to  have  been  imparted  by  the 
arrangement.  About  fifty  come  to  each  of  these  Stationsi  and  several  have  applied  for 
baptism.  Our  object  is  to  form  a  number  of  Stations  round  one  that  is  central,  and  assign 
them  to  the  Native  Agent  as  his  special  sphere  of  labour,  in  connection  with  a  general 
visitation  of  the  surrounding  country.  There  are  indications  of  prosperity  in  this  form  of 
the  work  which  we  hope  to  see  ere  long  fully  realised.

HANKOW. 

The  labours  of  the  Society  were  eommenoed  in  this  populous  city  less  than  three  yeart 
sinee  by  the  Rsv.  Griffith  John  and  the  late  Riv.  Robert  Wilson  ;  and  the  mag- 
nitude and  importance  of  the  field  will  be  best  understood  by  the  following  description  given 
by  Mr.  John : — 

'<  Long  before  the  opening  up  of  the  great  Yang'tsi  the  existence  of  this  immense  emporium 
had  been  made  known  to  the  merchant  and  the  Missionary.  Of\en  had  we  heard  of  its 
importance,  its  vastness,  and  its  grandeur,  from  the  natives.  They  were  wont  to  diraify  it  with 
the  appellations,  •  The  Centre  of  the  Empire,'  and  •  The  Port  of  Nine  Provinces.*^  Hue  also 
had  told  us  wonderful  things  (some  things  rather  too  wonderful  to  believe")  about  this  great 
*  commercial  mart.'  And  although  we  knew  that  the  Chinese  could  hyperbolize,  and  that 
Hue  was  given  to  exaggerate,  we  concluded  that  there  must  be  a  substratum  of  truth  under- 
lying these  glowing  representations.  Hence,  when  this  mysteriously  grand  Hankow  was  to 
be  thrown  open  to  the  victorious  barbarian,  both  the  merchant  and  the  Missionary  were 
delighted  with  the  prospect  of  being  able  soon  to  carry  on  their  respective  enterprises  in  so 
iRviting  a  sphere.  The  merchants  rushed  up  the  river  in  rapid  succession,  and,  in  a  business 
manner,  took  possession  of  the  place.    At  first  they  had  to  put  up  with  many  inconveniences. 


174  MISSIONARY  MAGAZINE 

Liying  in  nattfe  houses,  and  scattered  oyer  all  the  town,  they  found  it  at  the  outset  anything 
but  pleasant  and  enjoyable— very  different  from  that  to  which  they  had  been  accustomed. 
But  gradually  they  are  oonvertiDg  the  most  worthless  part  of  the  town  into  what  is  destined 
to  be  one  of  the  most  attractive  spots  in  China. 

"The  present  population  of  Hankow  is  generally  supposed  to  be  about  eight  hundred 
thousand.  Some  maintain  that  it  is  more  than  a  million.  But  what  makes  this  mass  of 
human  beings  specially  interesting  to  the  Missionary  is  its  mixed  character.  Here  we  have 
the  representatives  of  the  eighteen  provinces,  in  the  character  of  merchants,  boatmen,  and 
artisans.  Through  these  the  Missionary  may,  to  a  certain  extent,  influence  the  whole  country. 
When  these  strangers  leave  the  place  they  carry  the  truth  with  them  in  their  minds  and  in 
the  books,  which  we  freely  give  to  all  who  can  read.  Of  this  fact  I  have  had  many  proofs. 
Again  and  again  have  men  come  to  me  who  have  evinced  considerable  acquaintance  with  the 
truth,  though  they  had  never  heard  the  Gospel  preached  at  our  chapels.  On  inquiry  I  have 
found  that  they  had  either  heard  it  from  others  who  had  been  in  the  habit  of  attending 
when  living  in  this  place,  or  had  found  it  in  the  books  which  those  men  had  taken  with  them 
to  their  homes.  It  is  often-  gratifying  to  learn  from  many  who  apply  for  books,  that  they 
want  them  to  take  to  Si-chwan,  or  Shen-si,  or  Kwei-cbow,  or  to  some  other  province  many 
hundreds  of  mites  away.  These  facts  will  give  you  some  idea  of  the  great  importance  of 
Hankow  as  a  Missionary  Station. 

**  Since  my  arrivsl  the  Gospel  has  been  preached  daily  to  all  who  have  desired  to  hear  it. 
Before  the  chapel  was  erected  the  services  were  conducted  in  our  house.  Though  an  obscure 
and  inconvenient  spot,  the  hall  was  generally  well  filled.  Many  a  pleasant  hour  have  I  spent 
there  in  trying  to  deposit  the  seed  of  truth  in  the  minds  of  this  people  ;  and  I  do  trust  and 
believe  that  some  have  been  born  again  in  that  hall.  Thousands  have  heard  the  glad  tidings 
of  salvation  there,  who  had  never  heard  them  before;  but  in  how  many  hearts  that  seed  has 
taken  root,  and  in  how  many  lives  it  is  bearing  fruit  to  the  praise  and  glory  of  God,  it  is 
impossible  for  me  to  know.  That  it  has  been  blessed  to  the  salvation  of  some,  and  to  the 
enlightenment  of  many,  is  certain.  It  was  only  last  week  I  met  with  a  man  who  had  heard 
the  Gospel  in  that  hall  several  months  ago,  and  who  had  been  reading  one  of  our  books  very 
carefully,  and  I  was  delighted  to  find  that  he  was  convinced  of  the  truth  of  Christianity,  was 
persuaded  of  the  folly  of  idolatry,  and  that  he  had  never  worshipped  an  idol  since  he  heard 
the  Gospel.  *  In  reading  the  book  you  gave  me,'  said  he,  *  1  saw  clearly  that  the  temple 
idols  are  nothing  but  wood  and  earth  carved  and  shaped  by  the  hands  of  roan,  and  that  the 
spirits  we  worship  are  nought  but  the  ghosts  of  dead  men.  Now,  I  am  convinced  that  God 
the  Heavenly  Father  is  the  only  true  God — that  He  is  the  Creator  of  heaven,  and  of  earth, 
and  of  all  things.'     '  Cut  thy  bread  upon  the  waters,  and  thou  shall  find  it  after  many  days.' 

**  We  opened  our  chapel  on  the  19th  of  July,  and  from  that  day  until  this  it  has  been 
opened  daily  for  public  service.  It  is  on  one  of  the  best  thoroughfares  in  Hankow,  and  as 
near  the  centre  of  the  town  as  possible.    A  better  site  it  would  be  difficult  to  find. 

'*  Our  infant  Church  in  Hankow  is  growing  stronger.  Our  number  is  now  tvfenttf* three; 
It  is  gradually  increasing,  and  the  piety  of  the  members  is,  I  trust,  deepening.  Their 
charactei  is  on  the  whole  good.  There  are  among  them  those  of  whose  sincerity  there  can 
be  no  doubt,  true  members  of  Christ's  body,  who  have  felt  that  the  Lord  is  precious,  and 
who  are  rejoicing  in  the  hope  of  the  glory  of  God. 

•*  At  the  beginning  of  last  year  we  commenced  the  system  of  monthly  subscriptions  in 
connection  with  the  Native  Church ;  and  during  the  year  they  amounted  to  nearly  £Z0, 
With  a  part  of  this  we  bought  a  piece  of  ground  for  a  Native  Cemetery  ;  and  we  have  been 
able  to  render  material  aid  to  two  or  three  of  the  poorer  members  with  the  remainder. 

"  On  the  12th  of  August,  1863,  my  dear  friend  and  excellent  colleague  Mr.  Wilson  was 
suddenly  and  unexpectedly  removed  from  among  us.  Of  this  event  I  have  already  informed 
you.  In  losing  him  I  feci  that  I  have  lost  a  most  valuable  friend,  the  Society  a  noble- 
hearted  Missionary,  and  this  community  a  godly  man.  I  often  think  of  him ;  and  his 
memory  never  fails  to  bring  with  it  hallowed  influences.  By  this  time  his  bereaved  family 
will  be  drawing  near  their  native  land.  Again  do  I  commend  them  to  your  kind  regard. 
You  will  be  pleased  to  learn  that  the  gentlemen  of  this  country  have  placed  in  my  hands  a 
handsome  sum  for  their  benefit.  This  is  not  the  place  for  me  to  speak  of  the  foreign 
merchants;  but  I  may  be  allowed  to  state  that  I  have  never  known  a  class  of  men  more 
generous  and  noble-hearted  than  the  merchants  of  China.  I  have  never  known  them  to 
regard  suffering  with  indifference,  to  turn  away  from  the  needy,  or  to  fail  to  respond 
heartily  to  any  worthy  call.

month  of  the  Chinese  new  jear.    Of  this  I  shall  write  to  yon  more  fally  hereafter. 

<*  I  have  just  established  one  Out-station  at  a  place  called  Ttat'tien,  abont  fifteen  miles 
from  Hankow.  The  population  is  large,  and  the  people  seem  well  disposed.  The  Native 
Assistant  whom  I  ha?e  placed  there  is  a  tried  man,  and  is  likely  to  torn  ont  well. 

<*  Besides  attending  to  our  Chinese  work,  the  Missionaries  at  Hankow  preach  every 
Sunday  to  the  foreign  residents.  These  services  are  generally  well  attended)  and  good,  I 
tmsty  is  being  done/' 

A  Medical  Missionary  will,  we  hope,  Join  our  Brother  at  Hankow  befbre  the  close  of  the 
year. 

TIBN-T8IN. 

The  Bbv.  Joseph  Edkins  commenced  the  Mission  in  this  city,  and  he  was  soon 
privileged  to  receive  the  first-fruits  of  his  labours  in  several  promising  converts,  who  made 
a  public  profession  of  their  faith  in  Christ,  and  manifested  a  lively  concern  for  the  salvation 
of  their  countrymen.  In  April,  1862,  the  Ret.  Jonathan  Lbbs  arrived  in  Tien-tsin,  and 
Mr.  Edkins  advanced  to  Peking ;  but  the  Rby.  Jambs  Williamson  has  since  joined 
Mr.  Lees,  and  cheering  hopes  may  be  entertained  that  the  blessing  of  God  will  be  granted 
to  their  diligent  and  faithful  Ubours. 

PEKING. 

Till  within  a  recent  period,  Missionaries  have  not  been  admitted  to  the  capital  of  the 
Chinese  empire ;  but  these  restrictions  have  lately  been  relaxed,  and  there  are  now  ten 
agents  of  different  societies,  including  two  Medical  Missionaries,  settled  within  the  walls, 
and  actively  engaged  in  various  Missionary  operations.  While  the  people  are  yet  very 
imperfectly  acquainted  with  the  objects  and  labours  of  Christian  Teachers,  and  while  their 
prejudices  against  the  admission  of  foreigners  continue  strong,  it  hu  been  deemed  necessary 
to  abetain  from  preaching  in  the  crowded  streets  ;  but  buildings  may  be  obtained  as  Hos- 
pitals, Schools,  and  Preaching  Stations,  in  which  these  several  forms  of  Christian  labour 
may  be  prosecuted  without  interruption. 

The  following  is  the  list  supplied  by  Dr.  Lockhart  of  the  Societies  which  have  already 
established  Missions  in  Peking,  with  the  names  of  their  respective  agents  :— 

London  Missiona&t  Socibty. — Rev.  Joseph  Edkins  and  wife ;  and  Dr.  Lockhart. 
Chukch  Missionaby  SociBTY.^Rev.  J.  Burden ;  Rev.  W.  H.  Collins,  wife,  and  children ; 

and  Mr.  John  Fryer,  School  Teacher. 
QoBPBL  Propaoation  Socibty. — Dr.  Stewart ;  and  Rev.  F.  R.  MicheU. 
English  Pbbsbytbrian  Mission. — Rev.  W.  C.  Bums,  pro  iem. 
Ambrican  Episcopal  Mission. — Rev.  S.  Scherescherveski. 
Ambbican  Pbbsbytbbian  Mission. — Rev.  Dr.  W.  Martin,  wife,  and  children. 

The  Rkv.  Josbph  Edbins,  in  a  letter  dated  January  23rd,  ult.,  describes  the  various 
methods  in  which  Missionary  operations  are  at  present  carried  on  in  Peking  :— 

♦«  The  work  of  preaching  in  this  city,"  he  writes,  "  is  now  gradually  extending.  At 
present  there  are  two  rooms  daily  employed  in  connection  with  our  Mission,  for  making 
known  the  Gospel  of  the  blessed  God,  besides  the  paticnU'  waiting-room  in  the  hospital. 
The  first  is  a  room  in  an  Imperial  temple.  A  ride  of  between  three  and  four  miles,  chiefly 
on  roads  skirting  the  palace  walls,  conducts  to  it.  The  hospital  is  to  the  south-east  of  the 
palace,  and  this  sUtion  is  on  the  north-west,  in  a  very  densely  populated  part  of  the 
Tartar  city.  I  rejoiced  in  its  being  obtained  for  preaching,  as  an  imporUnt  step  towards 
greater  freedom  of  operations.  In  the  front  courtyard  of  the  temple  there  arc  sonoe  small 
side  buildings,  ond  it  was  one  of  these  that  an  Assistant  Preacher,  aided  by  a  Manchu 
convert,  succeeded  in  renting,  to  be  used  as  his  home  and  also  as  a  meeting-house ;  and  it 
has  been  employed  daily  for  this  purpose  ever  since.  The  Manchu  convert  has  exerted 
himself  Bcalously  to  bring  hU  friends  to  hear  the  words  of  Jesus;  and  daily  instruciion  out 
of  the  Scriptures,  and  social  prayer  meetings,  have  already  led  some  of  them  to  a  con- 
siderable  acquaintance  with  Ofmoo  truth.  Most  of  the  attendants  are  Manchus.  rne

and  on  Sunday  lie  bringi  with  him  six  or  eight  of  his  disciples ;  and  ttieir  steady  sttentioib 
to  the  heavenly  teachings  of  the  Divine  word  is  cheering. 

**  The  room  is  smalt,  and  it  is  now  necessary  to  exchange  it  for  one  more  eemmodioui  in. 
the  neighbourhood.  The  '  Temple  of  the  Emperors  and  Kings '  needs  repairing,  and  this 
will  render  it  impossible  for  us  to  hire  the  room  again  at  present ;  but  another  larger  house- 
has  been  obtained,  and  we  expect  that  this  will  be  opened  for  preaching  in  a  few  days.  It 
is  in  a  lane  of  the  larger  kind.  We  thus  avoid  the  greater  publicity  of  large  thoroughfares, 
at  present,  contented  if  we  can  obtain  a  limited  audience  of  constant  hearers  in  a  locality 
somewhat  retired,  rather  than  invite  a  crowd  of  those  who,  like  the  wayside  auditors  in  the; 
parable,  allow  the  birds  of  evil  intent  to  rob  them  of  their  treasure. 

*'The  other  preaching  room  has  been  hired  in  a  large  lane  also,  half  a  mile  from  the. 
hospital.  Part  of  it  is  used  as  a  schoolroom  for  poor  children.  It  was  first  opened  for 
preaching  on  the  first  Sunday  in  the  new  year  ;  and  men  and  women  from  the  neighbour- 
hood have  filled  the  house  on  each  Sabbath  afternoon  ever  since.  The  schoolmaster,  who 
was'  baptized  three  weeks  since  at  the  hospital,  resides  at  the  schoolboose  with  his  wife, 
lie  is  a  converted  Mahometan,    llie  followers  of  Mahomet  are  in  this  city  very  numerooa. 

^The  school  is  pertly  for  destitnte  children,  of  whom  three  have  been  received,  all  of 
then  from  the  beggar  class,  which  in  Peking  is  extremely  large.  It  is  hoped  that  sufficient 
funds  will  be  obtained  for  the  school  from  local  sources,  and  that  the  number  of  poor  little 
outcasts  thus  reclaimed  from  a  life  of  beggary  and  probable  crime  maybe  increased.  There 
^re  nine  day  scholars  besides,  who  are  neither  orphans  nor  .beggars,  but  the  children  of 
persons  able  to  provide  them  with  food  and  clothing,  but  not  with  education.  Such  an 
Institution,  under  the  care  of  a  suitable  native  convert,  if  adapted,  in  a  city  like  this,  to 
insure  kindly  regard  from  the  resident  population,  and  will  tend  to  neutralize  any  alarm 
they  may  feel  at  our  preaching  against  idolatry  and  the  various  native  superstitions. 

"  The  new  year,  you  will  thus  see,  has  opened  for  us  cheeringly,  and  there  is  good  reasoa 
to  expect  that  Peking  will  prove  a  fruitful  field  for  Missionary  labour." 

MEDICAL   MISSION. 

Dr.  Lockhart,  our  devoted  and  disinterested  representative  at  Peking,  has  continued 
his  multifarious  and  abundant  labours  throughout  the  year,  and  has  had  the  happiness  of 
imparting  relief  to  multitudes  of  the  afflicted  and  wretched;  while  his  daily  labours  in  the 
hospital  have  been  accompanied  by  the  faithful  instructions  of  a  Native  Ohristian  Teacher. 
The  following  are  extracts  from  the  Report  of  the  hospital,  which  he  first  established  and 
has  since  superintended  in  the  city  of  Peking: — 

'<Tbe  work  of  the  hospital  and  dispensary  has  been  carried  on  during  the  last  twdve 
months  without  interruption.  Considerable  additions  have  been  made  to  the  acoommoda- 
tion  for  patients ;  and,  though  the  premises  are  necessarily  very  different  from  a  European 
hospital,  still  they  answer  the  purpose  for  which  they  were  intended. 

"  The  same  general  plan  has  been  followed  this  year  as  before.  The  out-patients  have 
been  attended  to  every  day,  and  all  classes  of  people  have  applied  for  relief. 

**  There  have  been  10,251  separate  cues  attended  to  during  the  past  twelve  months. 
Numbers  of  these  have  been  seen  daily,  or  twice  or  thrice  a  week  for  a  long  time,  and 
almost  all  of  them  several  times ;  but  each  case  is  registered  only  once,  on  being  first  seen^ 
and  no  record  is  kept  of  subsequent  visits. 

"  Many  of  the  pi^ients  have  come  from  various  cities  and  towns  in  the  province,  and  also 
from  different  and  distant  places  beyond  the  Great  Wall. 

*'  As  to  the  religious  instruction  given  to  the  patients,  it  may  be  stated,  that  many  copies 
of  the  Chinese  New  Testament,  and  various  books  on  the  leading  truths  of  Christianity, 
have  been  presented  to  them,  and  the  Rev.  J.  Edkins  and  a  Native  Preacher  have  held  daily 
services  in  the  hall,  during  the  time  that  the  patients  were  waiting  for  their  turn  to  go  into 
the  surgery.  In  this  way  much  Christian  knowledge  has  been  imparted,  and  it  is  hoped 
not  without  good  effect.  We  think  that  the  endeavour  to  teach  and  to  heal  should  be 
carried  on  together. 

"  This  establishment  is  not  the  only  one  now  in  Peking  In  connection  with  Protestant 
Missions.  Dr.  J.  A.  Stewart,  of  the  Society  for  the  Propagation  of  the  Gospel,  has  lately 
obtained  premises  in  another  quarter  of  the  city,  and  is  beginning  to  attend  patients  at  this 
new  hospital,  which  it  is  hoped  will  be  very  successful,  and  answer  bis  highest  expectations. 

"  By  the  residence  of  Medical  Missionaries,  and  the  esUblishment  of  hospitals  in  Pekioff, 
much  good  will  be  done  to  the  inhabitants  of  the  city  and  ite  vicinity ;  and  thns,  by  heaUng 
and  teaching,  the  Gospel  will  be  made  known  among  them.  The  primary  object  of  tiie

INDIA. 

The  evidence  of  every  sncoeeding  year  tends  to  strengthen  the  claims  of  India  npon  the 
generous  zeal  and  self-denying  labours  of  the  Chnrohes  of  Britain.  The  political  changes 
which  have  occurred  in  that  Empire  of  Nations,  and  the  new  relation  of  its  millions  to  our 
Qneea,  have  already  wrought  the  most  beneficial  results,  and  their  future  influence  will 
prove  of  incalculable  worth.  The  diffusion  of  education,  the  extension  of  commerce,  the 
facilities  of  intercourse  between  the  remotest  provinces  of  the  country,  and  between  India 
and  Great  Britain  itself-^these  improvements,  now  in  rapid  progress,  as  they  supply  to  the 
friends  of  Missions  new  opportunities  for  labour  and  new  sources  of  encouragement,  impose 
also  new  obligations  for  increasing  seal  and  wider  exertion.  May  the  Churches  of  Britain 
arise  to  a  sense  of  their  deep  responsibilities  in  relation  to  India,  which  the  providence  of 
God  has  so  wonderfully  associated  with  ourselves,  and  subjugated  to  the  dominion  of  our 
country. 

Although  the  progress  of  our  Indian  Missions  has  not  been  recently  marked  by  any 
striking  events,  or  any  large  increase  of  converts  in  particuUr  localities,  yet  it  has  been  real 
aud  decided.  The  continuance  of  Missionary  labour  for  more  than  half  a  century,  the 
circulation  of  the  Holy  Scriptures  in  the  various  languages  of  the  country,  with  the  growing 
eflbrts  to  promote  education  and  social  improvement,  have  all  had  a  direct  influence  in 
weakening  the  faith  of  the  people  in  the  superstitions  and  absurdities  of  Hindoo  idolatry, 
and  in  rendering  their  minds  more  accessible  to  the  truths  of  the  Gospel. 

The  power  of  easte  has  been  sensibly  weakened,  and  many  high-caste  natives  have  at 
diflbrent  times  embraced  the  Gospel.  During  the  last  year  three  converts  of  high  caste, 
two  of  them  Knlin  Brahmins,  have  been  received  into  our  Mission  Church  in  Calcutta. 

Encouraging  accessions  have  been  made  to  our  Churches,  generally  in  the  South,  where 
hundreds  have  renounced  heathenism,  avowed  themselves  Christians,  and  placed  themselves 
under  the  guidance  and  counsels  of  Christian  teachers. 

The  number  of  young  men  under  training  for  the  work  of  Evangelists  is  greater  than  at 
any  former  period ;  and  those  that  have  already  been  ordained  to  the  ministry,  as  pastors 
or  evangelists,  have  diligently  discharged  the  duties  of  their  office,  and  have  well  sustained 
it  by  a  consistent  and  unblemished  Christian  character. 

The  lUeraUty  of  the  Native  Churches  is  a  new  and  most  encouraging  feature  of  the 
times.  Formerly  the  Hindoo  converts  were  forward  to  complain  of  their  poverty,  and  to 
seek  help  for  themselves  rather  than  extend  it  to  others.  But  now  they  feel,  to  some 
extent,  the  convictions  of  Christian  duty,  and  according  to  their  ability  raise  considerable 
contributions  for  the  support  of  the  Native  ministry,  the  erection  of  chapels,  the  purchase 
of  the  Scriptures,  and  the  education  of  their  children.  The  Mission  Church  at  Calcutta 
contributed  last  year  not  less  than  £60  towards  the  salary  of  the  Pastor.  Within  the  last 
three  years  the  Christians  throughout  Trayanoobb  have  more  than  doubled  their  free-will 
offerings  to  the  cause  of  God;  and  in  one  district  last  year  they  rose  from  £46  to  nearly 
£180.  These  instances  of  Christian  liberality  are  not  solitary,  but  the  same  improved  state 
of  feeling  is  manifested,  though  in  different  degrees,  throughout  our  Indian  Missions. 

The  Government  Schools  of  India  have  been  rapidly  extended,  and  the  number  of 
scholars  has  largely  increased.  In  these  the  education  given  is  highly  valuable,  especially 
when  contrasted  with  the  absurdities  and  falsehoods  taught  in  Native  schools ;  but  it  is 
wholly  secular— iht  Bible  bebg  authoritatively  excluded.  The  influence  of  such  a  defective 
system  upon  the  native  mind  has  been  repeatedly  stated  with  great  force  by  Missionaries 
and  other  competent  witnesses.  In  Calcutta,  where  the  Government  system  has  been 
lonfetl  in  operation,  and  its  influence  most  doarly  seen,  the  last  Report  of  our  Auxiliary 


178  MISSIONAltY  MAGAZINE 

Society  contains,  in  the  case  of  a  young  Brahmin  'convert,  a  striking  illoatration.    The 
description  given  of  this  yonth  by  a  Hindoo  Evangelist  is  as  follows : — 

"  Kali  Prosnnno  Chowdy  is  an  inhabitant  of  Srcenagore,  a  village  of  Dacca.  His  father 
is  a  man  of  some  influence,  and  a  thorough-going  orthodox  Hindoo.  It  is  needless  to  say 
that  he  did  all  be  coald  to  make  his  boy  walk  in  bis  own  footsteps.  For  a  time  his 
expectations  were  more  than  realized.  His  son  did  live  and  act  as  a  Hindoo.  But  the 
prevailing  mania  for  English  education  and  its  prospective  advantages  infected  him,  and,  in 
an  unpropitious  moment,  as  he  would  now  regard  it,  he  sent  his  son  to  the  Government 
School  at  Borrisant,  to  learn  the  language  and  literature  of  the  West.  As  Kali  Prosnnno 
grew  older,  and  advanced  in  his  studies,  his  mind  became  more  expanded,  his  understanding 
more  enlightened,  and,  before  many  years  had  elapsed,  he  found  out  that  to  worship  idols 
was  the  greatest  wickedness  a  human  being  could  be  guilty  of.  He  lost  all  faith  in 
Hindooism ;  this  was  indeed  the  result  of  the  education  he  received  in  the  school.  Bnt 
what  further  influence  did  that  education  exercise  over  his  mind  ?  It  had  uprooted  from 
within  him  all  love  and  veneration  for  the  religion  of  his  fathers;  but  what  did  it  give  him 
as  its  substitute  ?  Here  the  Government  system  of  education  is  utterly  powerless—its 
insufficiency  and  incompleteness  must  be  admitted.  A  system  which  cultivates  the  mind 
and  sharpens  the  intellect  only,  without  at  all  touching  the  heart,  is  worthless  to  man  as  a 
moral  and  respontible  being — a  being  whose  present  hap])ine8s  and  whose  future  and  eternal 
destiny  solely  depend  upon  the  entire  consecration  of  self  to  the  great  Author  of  his  life. 

*•  Under  such  circumstances,  our  young  friend  was  very  restless  in  mind.  Peace  he  wanted 
— peace  he  sought  after  ;  but,  alas,  he  found  it  not  I  There  was  no  one  then  within  the 
boundary  of  his  knowledge  who  could  say  to  him,  in  accents  of  compassionate  love,  *  Peace, 
be  still.  Son,  be  of  good  cheer ;  thy  sins  are  forgiven  thee  V  Like  a  wearied,  thirsty,  fainting 
traveller,  in  an  almost  boundless  sandy  desert,  he  longed  for  water;  but  the  fountain  of 
living  water  opened  up  on  the  summits  of  Calvary  was  as  yet  concealed  from  his  view. 
In  this  state  of  mind  he  joined  the  local  Brahroo  Sumaj,  and,  for  a  time,  seemed  to  like  its 
theories ;  but  his  sin-stricken  soul  could  gain  no  satisfaction  from  them.  Where  else  can 
satisfaction  be  found  bnt  in  Jesus  ?  Who  else  but  the  Lamb  of  God  can  '  take  away  our 
sins  ?'  Who  but  the  great  Sun  of  Righteousness  can  dispel  the  thick  darkness  of  our  inner 
man  ?  What  but  the  truth  as  it^is  in  Jesus  can  make  us  free  from  the  bondage  of  sin  ? 
What  else  but  the  blood,  the  precious  blood  of  the  Son  of  man,  can  rescue  us  from  the  never- 
ending  torments  of  hell  ?    These  glorious  truths  Kali  Prosunno  had  yet  to  learn." 

Happily,  in  the  case  of  this  young  Brahmin,  as  in  many  others,  the  education  he  had 
received,  defective  as  it  was,  led  him  to  seek  from  other  sources  for  higher  wisdom,  and,  by 
God's  mercy,  he  found  it. 

This  great  and  essential  defect  in  the  system  of  Government  education  is  supplied  in 
Mission  Schools;  and,  as  that  system  is  rapidly  extending,  so  ought  Christian  Schools  to  be 
multiplied.  The  only  obstacle  to  such  increase  is  the  want  of  suitable  agents  and  adequate 
funds.  Although  it  is  universally  known  that  the  Bible  is  always  taught  in  our  schools, 
and  not  only  taught,  but  that  its  Divine  truths  are  explained  and  enforced  upon  the  pupils, 
yet  these  schools  are  filled,  and,  in  many  instances,  preferred  to  those  from  which  the  Bible 
is  excluded. 

In  our  schools  also  weekly  payments  are  required ;  and  this,  instead  of  diminishing  the 
number  of  pupils,  serves  rather  to  enhance  the  value  of  the  instruction  given,  while  the  fees 
received  greatly  diminish  the  expenses  of  the  Institution. 

In  the  School  at  Bangalore  the  payments  for  the  year  amounted  to 

In  the  Schools  at  Bbllart,  to  •  .  •  • 

In  the  School  at  Madras,  to     . 

In  the  Schools  at  Calcutta,  to  .... 

At  Bangalore,  in  addition  to  the  school  fees,  £30  St,  Ud,  was  realized  by  the  sale  of 
needle-work  done  by  the  girls ;   and  at  Neyoor  the  work  of  the  girls  produced  £35  10«.  9<f. 

One  of  the  most  important  and  hopeful  indications  of  the  advancement  of  the  native 
mind  appears  in  the  extension  of  education  among  the  females  of  India.  This  good  vrork 
has,  to  a  limited  extent,  been  carried  on  for  many  years  in  the  schools  superintended  by  the 
wives  of  our  Missionaries,  and  firom  these  many  Christian  wWel  alad  mothers  have  gone

forth,  who  are  diflViting  blessings  in  their  households.  These  females  have  generally  belonged 
to  the  hnmbter  classes  of  society ;  but  efforts  have  been  commenced,  and  are  now  extending, 
to  impart  knowledge  to  the  higher  ranks  of  Hindoo  women,  and  thongh  it  is  bat  the  day  of 
small  tbiogs,  we  may  confidently  expect  the  happiest  resolts.  Now,  indeed,  many  of  the 
educated  Hindoos  are  desirous  that  their  wives  and  daughters  should  receive  the  advantages 
of  education,  and  are  actually  employing  means  to  promote  their  mental  improvement. 
And  in  no  single  department  could  wise  and  benevolent  efforts  be  employed  with  greater 
advantage  to  India,  than  by  the  enlightenment  and  elevation  of  the  female  population. 

The  system  of  Zenana  visitation  to  the  females  of  respectable  Hindoo  families  is  a  means 
of  Christian  usefulness  of  great  promise ;  and,  although  not  to  be  accomplished  without 
jnuch  difficulty  and  manifold  discouragements,  it  is  silently  extending. 

A  more  striking  evidence  of  the  advance  of  the  public  mind  of  India  in  favour  of  educa- 
tion, and  in  sentiments  of  respect  and  esteem  for  Chrislian  Missionaries,  could  scarcely  be 
found  than  in  the  contrast  of  the  misrepresentation,  ridicule,  and  reproach  with  which 
Dr.  Durp  commenced  his  noble  and  disinterested  career  in  India,  and  the  accumulated 
honoors  heaped  upon  him  when  he  left  its  shores — honours  rendered  to  him  not  only  by  his 
eoontrymen  of  the  highest  rank,  but  by  the  most  distinguised  Hindoos  in  the  city  of 
Calcutta. 

Although  the  Directors  are  thankful  in  being  able  to  present  these  favourable  indications 
of  the  state  and  prospects  of  our  Indian  Missions,  they  are  constrained  to  add,  that  the 
entire  Christian  agency  employed  by  all  Missionary  Institutions  for  the  redemption  of 
India  from  its  debasing  and  destructive  idolatry  falls  far  short  of  the  magnitude  and  urgency 
of  the  occasion,  and  of  our  sacred  obligations  to  our  Divine  Master  and  Lord.  The  harvest 
is  great — all  but  boundless— but  the  labourers  are  few.  "  Pray  ye  therefore  the  Lord  of  the 
harvest  that  He  would  send  forth  labourers  into  His  harvest." 

Not  only  must  the  number  of  labourers  be  multiplied,  and  their  qualifications  largely  in- 
creased, but  such  are  the  gigantic  obstacles  to  be  overcome,  that  all  will  end  in  failure 
unattended  by  the  almighty  and  gracious  power  of  the  Holy  Spirit.  In  these  promised 
succours  all  our  hopes  must  centre,  and  for  their  enlarged  bestowment  must  our  earnest 
prayers  ascend. 

MADAGASCAR. 

Changes  the  most  important,  and  events  the  most  tragical,  were  actually  occurring  in  the 
capital  of  Madagascar  at  the  very  time  our  Anniversary  Services  of  last  year  were  in  the 
course  of  celebration.  On  the  10th  of  May  and  following  two  days  the  Government  of 
Radama  II.  was  subverted,  his  life  sacrificed,  his  evil  counsellors  cut  off,  and  a  new 
Goyemment,  under  the  Queen  and  the  chief  nobles  of  the  country,  inaugurated.  The 
intelligence  of  these  events  was,  to  the  Directors  and  the  friends  of  the  Society,  altogether 
unexpected,  and,  indeed,  directly  opposed  to  their  strongest  anticipations  and  most  sanguine 
hopes.    The  Rby.  William  Ellis  thus  announces  these  momentous  changes : — 

"Seldom  has  the  instability  of  human  affairs  been  more  strikingly,  and,  in  some  respects, 
tragically  manifested,  than  in  the  events  of  the  last  few  days  in  this  city.  Within  that 
period  the  reign  of  Radama  II.  has  closed  with  his  life ;  a  successor  has  been  chosen  by  the 
nobles,  and  accepted  by  the  people ;  a  new  form  of  Government  has  been  inaugurated,  and 
it  is  arranged  that  the  legislative  and  administrative  functions  of  the  sovereignty  shall  here- 
after be  discharged  by  the  Sovereign,  the  nobles,  and  the  heads  of  the  people,  jointly.  A 
seriea  of  resolutions,  embodying  what  may  be  regarded  as  the  germs  of  Constitutional 
Government,  has  been  prepared  and  presented  by  the  nobles  and  heads  of  the  people,  to  the 
Queen,  containing  the  conditions  on  which  they  offered  her  the  crown.  The  acceptance  of 
the  conditions  by  Rauodo,  and  their  due  observance  by  the  nobles  and  heads  of  the 
people,  were  attested  by  the  signatures  of  the  Queen  and  the  chief  of  the  nobles  before  the 
former  was  announced  to  the  people  as  their  future  Sovereign,  and  proclaimed  under  the 
titie  of  RAaoARuisNA^  Queen  of  Madagascar."

Mr.  Bllif  proceed!  to  aoeount  for  the  rerolutioBy  lo  far  m  it  relttes  to  the  Itte  King,  m 
follows  :— 

**  Amiable  and  enlightened,  as  in  several  respects  Radama  certainly  was,  his  views  of  the 
duties  of  a  mler  were  exceedingly  defectiye,  and  almost  all  government  for  the  good  of  the 
country  may  be  said  to  have  b^n  in  abeyance  ever  since  his  accession.  The  destruction  of 
a  large  part  of  the  revenue  of  Government  by  the  abolition  of  all  duties ;  the  exclusion  from 
his  councils  of  many  of  the  nobles  and  most  experienced  men  in  the  nation,  while  he  sur- 
rounded himself  with  a  number  of  young,  inexperienced,  and  many  of  them  most  objection- 
able men  as  his  confidential  adTisers ;  the  relaxation  or  discontinuance  of  all  efforts  to 
repress  crime,  or  punish  it  when  committed,  and  the  neglect  of  all  measures  for  placing  the 
prosperity  of  the  country  on  any  solid  basis,  have,  notwithstanding  the  affection  many  of  the 
people  bore  him,  produced  growing  dissatisfaction." 

The  RsY.  Robert  Tot  describes  the  character  of  Radama  in  still  darker  oolonrs  :— 

*'  It  is  tme,"  he  writes,  *^  that  the  King  was  of  an  affable,  humane,  and  genial  disposition ; 
but  he  was  also  conceited,  frivolous,  irreligious,  most  licentioas,  and  in  almost  every  respect 
totally  unfit  to  govern  a  country.  His  government,  if  such  it  could  be  called,  was  of  the 
most  wretched  description,  and  his  life,  since  coming  to  the  throne,  has  for  the  most  part 
been  passed  in  amusements  of  the  lowest  kind.  Serious  in  the  presence  of  seriously  dis- 
posed foreigners,  he  would  turn  them  into  ridicule  as  soon  as  they  had  left  him.  He  utterly 
despised  the  counsels  of  his  best  friends,  and  those  who  were  legally  his  advisers*  and 
pampered  those  who  have  been  the  cause  of  his  ruin." 

The  picture  here  presented  of  the  rapid  course  of  degeneracy  on  the  part  of  the  late  King, 
which  appears  to  liave  commenced  soon  after  his  coronation,  renders  it  obvions  that  his 
unhappy  death  was  brought  about  by  his  gross  dereliction  of  the  duties  devolving  on  a 
sovereign,  and  by  his  abandonment  to  degrading  vices.  Nevertheless,  as  Mr.  Toy  justly 
remarks,  "  it  should  never  be  forgotten  that,  however  much  he  changed  in  his  conduct 
towards  the  Christians  during  the  latter  part  of  his  short  reign,  he  had  previously  rendered 
them  good  service,  and  for  their  present  position  and  strength  they  are  in  no  small  degree 
indebted  to  him.  Had  he  been  willing  to  abandon  his  follies,  and  to  have  chosen  wise  and 
judicious  counsellors,  he  would  probably  at  this  moment  hate  been  ruling  over  a  happy, 
united,  and  prosperous  people.'' 

The  avowed  principles  of  the  new  Government  are  enlightened,  just,  and  beneficent,  and, 
if  faithfully  observed  by  the  Sovereign  and  her  ministers,  they  cannot  fail  to  work  results 
the  most  beneficial  to  all  classes  of  the  Malagasy  people.  The  following  articles  in  the 
proposed  form  of  government  are  the  most  important  :— 

"  The  word  of  the  Sovereign  alone  is  not  to  be  law,  but  the  nobles  and  heads  of  the 
people,  with  the  Sovereign,  are  to  mske  the  laws. 

**  Perfect  liberty  and  protection  is  guaranteed  to  all  foreigners  who  are  obedient  to  the 
laws  of  the  country. 

*'  Friendly  relations  are  to  be  maintained  with  all  other  nations. 

''  Duties  are  to  be  levied,  but  commerce  and  civilization  are  to  be  encouraged. 

'*  Protection,  and  liberty  to  worship,  teach,  and  promote  the  exteniion  of  Christianity, 
are  secured  to  the  Native  Christians,  and  the  tame  protection  and  libcorty  are  goarante^  to 
those  who  are  not  Christians. 

**  Domestic  slavery  is  not  abolished;  but  masters  are  at  liberty  to  give  freedom  to  their 
slaves,  or  to  sell  them  to  others. 

"No  person  is  to  be  put  to  death  for  any  offence,  by  the  word  of  the  Sovereign  alone  ; 
and  no  one  is  to  be  sentenced  to  death  till  twelve  men  have  declared  such  person  to  be 
guilty  of  the  crime  to  which  the  law  awards  the  punishment  of  death." 

Both  as  Englishmen  and  Christians  we  must  heartily  rejoice  at  the  change  firom  absolute 
despotism  to  the  principles  of  Constitutional  Government;  but  whether  the  infiuential 
classes  in  Madagascar  sincerely  value,  or  know  how  to  improve  these  good  principles,  time 
only  can  determine.  Hitherto,  however,  the  Queen  and  her  Government  have  pnctieally 
adhered  to  the  new  law^  and  especially  to  that  which  is  the  most  interesting  and  importani 
to  the  Mission  Chnrohet,  namely,  the  law  which  secures  protection  and  liberty  to  worship.

tcaek,  and  promote  the  exteniion  of  Chrittiaiiity  among  the  people  of  lladagatear.  '<  No, 
impediment,''  uyi  Mr.  BUif,  ''  is  offered  or  allowed  to  the  perfectly  free  action  of  the 
Christians,  alike  in  the  enjoyment  of  their  own  priTileget  and  their  efforts  to  extend  the 
Gospel  to  others ;"  and  onr  Missbnaries  express  not  only  their  hope,  bnt  their  expectation 
from  the  constant  increase  of  the  Christians  in  the  capital,  and  especially  from  among  the 
higher  classes  of  society,  that  any  return  to  persecntion  for  the  truth's  sake  would  become 
not  only  difficult,  but  impracticable.  The  patronage  of  such  a  ruler  as  the  late  Radama 
could  not  fail  to  be  injurious  rather  than  beneficial  to  the  interests  of  pure  Christianity ;  and 
if  the  pKsent  Sovereign  and  her  GoTcmment  continue  to  administer  the  law  granting 
religions  freedom  and  equaUty,  with  justice  and  impartiality,  the  Native  Church  will 
possess  all  that  it  can  claim,  and  all  that  will  really  conduce  to  its  stability  and  usefulness. 

At  the  close  of  1863  the  Christians  of  Antananarivo  presented  themselves  in  a  body  to 
the  Queen,  who  received  their  addresses  with  evident  pleasure,  and  gave  them  repeated 
assurances  of  her  satisfaction.  Mr.  Ellis  gives  an  interesting  narrative  of  the  day's  pro- 
oetdinga: — 

"  Ou  Christmas  Day  the  heads  of  the  Christians  expressed  a  wish  to  pay  their  respects  to 
the  Qoeen,  and  her  Mijesty  signified  her  pleasure  to  receive  them.  Early  in  the  morning 
of  that  day  the  congregations  assembled  in  their  respective  chapels.  The  places  were  all 
crowded,  though  the  services  were  closed  soon  after  eight  o'clock.  The  several  congrega- 
tions  then  proceeded,  some  of  them  singing  as  they  went,  to  Andohalo,  the  place  of  public 
assemblies.  In  company  with  some  of  the  Brethren,  I  proceeded  to  the  place  of  gathering. 
On  our  way  we  met  the  Prime  Minister  and  some  of  the  nobles  going  to  the  palace;  but  the 
road  was  so  thronged  with  Christians,  that  their  bearers  could  with  difficulty  make  their 
way  through  the  crowd.  On  reaching  Andohalo  an  animating  spectacle  presented  itself. 
In  this  natural  amphitheatre,  situated  in  the  heart  of  the  city,  not  fewer,  certninly,  than 
7000  Christians  were  assembled.  Some  were  standing  or  leisurely  walking  to  and  fro, 
others  sitting  under  umbrageous  and  fruit-bearing  ^-trees.  Fathers  and  mothers  with 
their  children  were  there,  young  men  and  maidens,  pastors  and  their  spiritual  flocks,  all  in 
their  holiday  attire.  All  seemed  perfectly  at  ease  and  conscious  of  secnrityi  while  the 
grateful  joy  of  the  heart  seemed  to  beam  in  every  countenance,  and  find  utterance  in  every 
greeting. 

**  While  the  leaders  of  the  Christians  were  arranging  the  several  companies,  we  proceeded 
through  the  crowded  way  to  the  neighbourhood  of  the  large  palace,  and  were  soon  after 
followed  by  the  Christians  walking  four  abreast.  Among  the  front  ranks  were  civil  and 
military  officers  of  13th  and  14lh  Honours,  officers  of  the  palace,  as  well  as  others  of  lower 
rank,  mingled  with  pastors,  preachers,  and  deacons,  followed  by  the  whole  body  of  the 
Chrifllians,  the  men  walking  first,  and  the  women  afterwards.  Joining  with  them,  we  led 
the  way  to  the  palace,  the  general  residence  of  the  Queen.  Here  the  Christians  filled  every 
available  spot  of  ground  in  front  of  the  balustrade  within  which  the  royal  seat  was  placed. 
The  members  of  the  roval  family  and  officers  were  ranged  on  the  left ;  the  ladies  in  waiting, 
the  ministers  and  members  of  the  Government,  on  the  right.  When  the  Queen  came  out 
of  the  palace  she  was  welcomed  with  hearty  graetings  from  the  vast  assembly.  As  these 
snbaided»  several  parties  of  singers  sang  what  may  be  termed  the  National  Anthem,  and  a 
hymn  imploring  the  Divine  blessing  on  the  Queen.  An  officer  then  advanced  a  little  in 
front  of  the  rest,  tendered  the  salutations  of  the  Christians  to  her  Majeaty,  and  presented 
the  customary  Hasina,  which  the  Queen  very  cheerfully  acknowledged.  The  choirs 
belonging  to  the  several  city  congregations  afterwards  saog  with  good  effect  several  hymns 
and  anthems.  Rainimamonjisoa,  an  intelligent,  gifted,  and  infiuential  officer,  also  an  aide- 
de-camp  to  the  Prime  Minister,  then  st^  forward,  and,  in  the  name  of  his  fellow- 
Christians,  addressed  the  Queen  with  much  readiness  and  force,  assuring  her  Majesty  of 
their  loyalty  and  gratitude  for  their  privil^s,  of  their  devotednesa  to  the  Government,  and 
earnest  desires  to  promote  the  welfare  of  all  classes.  The  Queen  made  a  short  and 
approving  reply,  and  by  gestures  as  well  as  words  assured  the  vast  assembly  of  the  satis£sc- 
tion  which  their  presence  and  the  declaration  of  their  attachment  had  afforded.  The  high 
officers  and  other  members  of  the  Court  seemed  surprised  and  pleased  with  the  singing  of  the 
Christians;  and  after  the  hitter  had  again  sung  the  National  Anthem,  her  Mi^ty  rose  and 
re-entered  the  palace  amidst  the  cordial  greetings  of  the  multitude,  who  then  returned 
to  their  rcq^ecUve  homes.

The  strange  and  happy  contrast  between  the  scene  thus  described  and  the  public  as- 
semblies which,  in  former  years,  were  convened  on  the  same  spot  to  hear  the  Christians 
sentenced  to  slavery  and  to  death,  cannot  fall  to  inspire  our  grateful  praise  to  thdr  God 
and  ours,  and  to  strengthen  our  trust  in  Him  for  the  future  safety  and  prosperity  of  His 
Church. 

Two  important  measures  have  recently  been  commenced  in  the  capital.  In  the  month 
of  January  the  foundation  of  the  first  Meuorial  Churc^  was  laid  by  the  Prime  Minister, 
assisted  by  our  yenerable  friend  Mr.  £Uis ;  and  in  the  same  month  the  erection  of  a 
Hospital,  for  the  relief  of  the  poor  and  afflicted,  was  also  commenced.  The  latter,  we 
trust,  will  prove  a  valuable  auxiliary  to  Missionary  labour,  and  a  real  blessing  to  multitudes 
of  sufferers. 

"The  Natives,"  says  Dr.  Davidson,  "although  they  are  considerably  removed  from  u 
state  of  barbarism,  and  have  attained  to  a  certain  degree  of  advancement  in  many  of  the 
useful  arts,  are  entirely  ignorant  of  medical  science.  The  priests  arc  their  physicians :  their 
medical  and  religious  superstitions  form  parts  of  one  system.  The  Malagasy  word  od^ 
signifies  at  the  same  time  medicine  and  charm,  and  thus  we  find  that  the  chief  or  only 
means  of  cure  are  incantations  and  charms.  Surgery  is  unknown  :  the  simplest  operations 
are  not  attempted.  The  numbers  who  daily  apply  for  medicine  and  advice  evince  the  value 
put  upon  the  dispensary  by  the  Malagasy.  More  substantial  proofs  are  not  wanting.  The 
nobles  have  contributed  cheerfully  towards  the  erection  of  the  buildings ;  and  while  none 
arc  refused  medicine  because  they  are  unable  to  pay  for  it,  yet  many,  even  of  the  poorest, 
willingly  give  a  small  sum  as  they  are  able,  to  help  to  meet  the  current  expenses  of  the 
establishment.' ' 

During  the  past  year  the  Printing  Preti  has  been  brought  into  full  operation,  and  both 
Day  and  Sunday  Schools  have  been  established. 

Mr.  Ellis,  with  all  his  fellow-labourers,  bears  the  most  explicit  testimony  to  the  progress 
of  the  Gospel,  and  the  increase  of  believers,  both  in  the  capital  and  the  country. 

^*  With  regard  to  the  prospects  of  the  Mission  among  the  people,"  writes  Mr.  Sibree, 
**  nothing  can  be  more  encouraging.  The  five  chapels  in  the  city  are  crowded  every  Sunday, 
and  two  more  are  in  course  of  erection.  Both  adults  and  children  are  eager  for  knowledge, 
and  there  is  perfect  liberty  of  action.  A  very  large  population  in  villages  around  the  capital 
are  ready  for  the  Gospel ;  for  heathenism  here  seems  never  to  have  had  that  all-absorbing 
power  and  influence  which  most  systems  of  idolatry  have." 

Our  Missionary  Brethren  give  most  gratifying  reports  of  the  several  congregations  to 
whom  they  minister  the  Word  of  Life.  The  following  letter  from  the  Rbt.  W.  E.  Covsiks, 
dated  January  Ist,  is  selected  as  an  illustration  :— 

"  When  I  wrote  to  you  last  October  I  think  I  told  you  we  had  just  finished  a  new  chapd 
at  Amparibe.  When  you  hear  that  it  was  less  than  three  months  in  building  you  will  not 
expect  that  it  has  any  great  architectural  claims ;  still,  it  is  spacious,  clean,  light,  and  com- 
fortable, and  I  am  most  thankful  to  have  it  instead  of  the  dark,  dirty,  patchwork  place 
which  we  pulled  down.  It  is  built  of  clay.  The  walls  are  nearly  two  feet  thick,  and  eleven 
feet  high.  The  size  of  the  building  inside  is  fifty-nine  feet  by  forty ;  the  roof  is  made  of 
rushes.  The  whole  cost  of  the  building  was  paid  by  the  congregation  :  the  amount  sub- 
scribed in  money  was  139  dollars  ;  but,  in  addition  to  this,  many  gave  wood,  doors,  windows, 
and  other  materials  used  in  the  building.  Our  old  chapel  was  such  a  miserable  place  that 
all  felt  the  need  of  a  new  one ;  and  all  joined  most  zealously  in  pulling  down  the  old  one, 
and  putting  up  the  present  building.  On  the  Sabbath  morning  of  our  opening  the  number 
of  persons  was  counted  as  they  went  out,  and  it  was  found  that  1500  had  been  accommodated 
inside  the  building :  there  were  also  some  two  or  three  hundred  outside.  From  the  day  of 
opening,  our  congregations  have  been  large :  last  Sunday  morning  we  were  as  full  as  we 
had  ever  been. 

*'  During  the  past  year  the  Church  has  largely  increased.  The  number  of  new  members 
admitted  in  less  than  twelve  months  is  182.  About  eighty  have  been  dismissed  to  the 
newly  formed  Churches;  and  I  can  see  much  improvement  when  I  compare  the  internal 
state  of  the  Churches  as  we  found  them  with  their  present  condition.    The  attenrion  aod

behtTionr  of  the  people  are  much  better,  and  the  preachers  are  quite  as  earnest  and  faithful, 
but  more  careful  as  to  what  they  say. 

"  The  heaTy  rains  which  are  now  falling  almost  daily  render  it  impracticable  to  visit  the 
village  Churches,  but  all  with  which  I  am  acquainted  are  in  a  prosperous  condition." 

Although  our  Missionaries  regard  the  capital  and  its  environs  as  having  the  first  claim 
upon  their  zeal  and  assiduity,  they  are  glad  to  embrace  any  practicable  opportunity  of  examin* 
ing  the  state  of  the  people  in  remote  districts,  and  of  doing  all  they  can  to  promote  their 
Christian  order  and  edification.  A  recent  letter  of  Mr.  Cousins  gives  an  interesting  picture 
of  society  in  Vonezongo,  and  especially  of  the  number  of  Native  Christians  and  the  state 
of  the  Churches.  He  was  the  first  European  Missionary  who,  since  the  days  of  persecution, 
had  journeyed  to  that  distant  part  of  the  island.  As  the  result  of  his  visit  he  ascertained 
that  the  number  of  Christians  exceeds  six  hunAred,  and  that  there  are  three  Churches  con- 
taining  more  than  a  hundred  and  twenty  members.  * 

Envoys  from  the  Queen  and  Government  of  Madagascar  have  recently  arrived  in  this 
country,  with  the  view  of  obtaining  some  modification  in  the  treaties  of  commerce  between 
the  late  King  and  the  Governments  of  Great  Britain  and  France.  They  have  been  favour- 
ably received  by  the  members  of  our  Government,  and  have  been  honoured  with  interviews 
by  her  Majesty  the  Queen.  The  Directors  hold  these  distinguished  strangers  in  high 
respect;  and  they  very  earnestly  hope  that  the  objects  of  their  appointment  may  be  attained, 
and  that  commerce,  amity,  and  peace  may  hereafter  be  honourably  maintained  between 
Great  Britain  and  France  with  Madagascar* 

The  Society  has  now  completed  the  sbtbmtibth  year  of  its  history;  and,  while  the 
review  should  inspire  its  Directors  and  Constituents  with  sorrow  and  humiliation  that  their 
services  have  been  characterized  by  weakness  and  imperfection,  they  should  still  be  animated 
with  joy  and  praise  that  their  limited  and  feeble  agency  has  been  mighty  through  God  to 
the  pulling  down  of  the  strongholds  of  heathenism,  and  the  wide  extension  of  the  Saviour's 
kingdom  in  every  field  of  effort. 

In  the  IsLBS  op  the  Pacipic,  where  revolting  pollution  and  horrid  cruelty  tyrannized 
without  restraint ;  in  our  Western  Colonies,  where  the  curse  of  slavery  rested,  both 
upon  the  African  stranger  and  his  English  oppressor  ;  in  the  deserts  of  South  Aprica., 
where  the  natives,  inspired  with  mutual  hatred,  were  victims  in  common  to  cruel  supersti- 
tions and  brutal  debasements ;  in  China,  with  its  multitudinous  millions,  shut,  and,  to 
human  foresight,  impenetrably  shut,  against  the  servants  of  the  living  God ;  in  India, 
where  British  authority  was  employed  to  perpetuate  the  monstrous  evils  of  idolatry,  and 
exclude  from  the  idolater  the  blessings  of  the  Gospel ;  in  Madagascar,  where  the  early 
triumphs  of  the  Cross  insured  for  the  defenceless  converts  deadly  hatred  and  cruel  persecu- 
tion— in  all  these  distant  and  wide-spread  territories  of  darkness  the  brave  and  devoted 
champions  we  have  sent  forth  have  planted  the  standard  of  the  Cross,  and  sent  up  to  heaven 
the  exultant  strain,  **  Now  thanks  be  unto  God,  which  always  causeth  us  to  triumph  in 
Christ,  and  maketh  manifest  the  savour  of  His  knowledge  by  us  in  every  place." 

Let  us,  then,  not  dishonour  ourselves,  nor  dishonour  the  Saviour  whom  we  serve,  by  the 
utterance  of  complaint  or  the  indulgence  of  dissatisfaction ;  but,  in  common  with  every  divi- 
sion of  the  great  Missionary  host,  with  whom  we  go  forth  to  the  help  of  the  Lord  against  the 
mighty,  let  us  with  grateful  hearts  exclaim,  "The  Lord  hath  done  great  things  for  us, 
whereof  we  arp  glad."  And,  as  we  behold  what  God  hath  wrought,  with  faith  strengthened 
and  hope  made  confident,  let  us  go  forward,  and  He  will  show  us  greater  things,  and  lead 
us  on  to  triumphs  yet  more  glorious.  "  A  little  one  shall  become  a  thousand,  and  a  small  one 
a  strong  nation."  And,  though  the  time  may  be  distant,  yet  it  is  as  sure  as  the  dawn  of  to- 
morrow, when  the  Church,  triumphant  over  every  form  of  Paganism  and  Anti-Christ,  shall 
vnitc  in  the  adoring  acclamation,  "  Blessed  be  the  Lord  God,  the  God  of  Israel,  who  only

their  abundant  labours  In  every  field  of  eflbrt.  And»  in  pledging  itself,  with  Qod's  help,  to  more 
earnest  and  enlarged  exertions  for  the  salvation  of  the  heathen,  the  Meeting  exclusively  depends  for 
aucoess  upon  the  promised  outpouring  of  the  Holy  Spirit  in  answer  to  the  supplications  of  the 
Church." 

The  first  thing  in  the  Reaolation  is,  that  the  Report  which  has  been  read  be  approved— 
that  is,  that  you  are  to  like  it ;  that  it  be  adopted,  taken  under  your  care,  printed,  circulated, 
and,  I  should  have  added,  read  by  the  Churches.  It  is  a  faithful  record  of  what  has  been 
done  during  tlte  past  year  by  your  Sodety,  and  it  well  deserves  the  attention  of  all  who  are 
interested  in  the  spread  of  the  Gospel.  I  have  heard  it  said  that  our  Reports  are  not  much 
read.  Now  I  want  to  say  a  word  about  this.  The  cause  may  be— 4f  the  charge  is  true — 
that  the  Missionary  ipirit  is  feeble  in  our  Churches.  I  find  in  the  country  that  although 
farmers  are  not  the  quickest  of  apprehension  in  the  world — slow  to  move,  they  take  all 
their  lessons  from  nature,  and  nature  is  deliberate  and  ilow ;  here  in  Loudon  you  are  in  a 
hurry,  at  though  doomsday  were  to  be  in  a  few  weeks  ;  but  eternity  is  very  long.  Though 
the  farmers  are  alow  to  move,  they  can  speak  most  fluently  of  the  weather,  the  prospects  of 
the  season,  and  the  coming  harvest.  And  why  ?  Only  because  they  are  interested  in  such 
things.  Now,  my  friends,  if  you  are  interested  in  the  spread  of  the  Gospel — if  your  hearts 
yearned  over  a  dead  world — you  will  watch  with  anxious  hearts  the  progress  of  the  great 
work,  and  be  thankful  for  any  report  that  would  tell  you  that  a  human  soul  had  been 
plucked  from  the  burning.  Another  remark :  the  writers  of  that  Report  have  endeavoured 
to  place  the  facts  therein  contained  in  a  readable  form.  I  commend  this  much.  We  must 
avoid  by  all  possible  and  fair  means  a  spiritless  Report.  I  do  not  see  why  religious  books 
should  be  dull  at  all.  or  why  a  dull  speech  should  be  delivered,  a  dull  sermon  composed,  or 
a  lifeless  report  written.  There  is  a  Missionary  report  in  the  New  Testament.  It  is  the 
first  record  of  Missionary  enterprise — the  Book  of  the  Acts  of  the  Apostles,  llie  records 
therein  contained  are  beautiful  as  apples  of  gold  in  pictures  of  silver.  Read  the  history  of 
the  Pentecost  carefully,  and  you  will  almost  see  the  tongues  of  fire,  and  feel  the  rush  of  the 
mighty  wind.  Pass  through  God's  works.  All  His  works  are  done  in  truth ;  yes,  and  He  hath 
made  all  things  beautiful  in  their  season.  Truth^clotlied  in  beauty ;  this  is  the  characteristic  of 
God's  book  and  of  God's  works.  There  is  more  than  use  in  all  things.  There  are  wavelets  on 
the  lake;  the  fountain  sparkles  as  it  springs;  the  brook  murmurs  as  it  fiows ;  the  sunlight  pUys 
on  the  autumn  dew ;  the  cold  wintry  morning  has  a  fringe  of  gold  and  fire.  There  are  flowers 
in  the  field,  and  there  are  stars  in  the  heavens ;  there  is  melody  in  the  human  voice,  and 
beauty  in  the  human  face;  daisies  grow  on  the  churchyard  sod.  The  world  is  very  beauti- 
ful. Oh  I  my  God,  I  thank  Thee  that  I  live  1  And  shall  we  write  a  lifeless  Report?  Shall 
we  deliver  lifeless  sermons  ?  Nay  !  we  will  have  truth  wedded  to  beauty — trut^  baptized 
with  spiritual  life,  and  then  we  hope  our  Reports  will  be  read.  Get  these  two  things — a 
vigorous  Missionary  spirit  in  the  country,  and  a  noble  Report  such  as  we  have  heard  this 
morning — and  then  there  will  be  many  readers.  There  is  another  thing  in  this  Resolution  of 
which  I  wish  to  speak.  It  calls  for  enlarged  and  more  earnest  exertions  for  the  conversion 
of  the  heathen.  Now  that  is  general  language ;  I  wish  to  make  it  special.  I  would  o^ 
for  two  things.  I  would  call  for  more  Missionaries  to  go  forth  to  heathen  lands.  We  have 
just  heard  that  five  Missionaries  have  died  during  the  past  year^  and  some  must  come 
forward  and  be  baptized  for  the  dead.  I  aaa  well  aware  that  the  prosperous  and  respectable 
professions,  the  delightful  pursuits  of  art,  and  science,  and  general  literature  have  vast 
charms  for  educated  young  men ;  but  I  desire  to  see  young  men  of  talent,  education,  un- 
doubted piety,  and  aptness  to  teach,  present  themselves  for  this  service  of  Jesus  Christ.  I 
think  I  am  right  when  I  say  that  the  service  of  Christ,  in  this  most  du-ect  way  of  serving 
Him,  ought  to  possess  the  highest  charm  for  the  ablest  young  men  in  our  Churches.  It  is 
complained  in  the  Establishment  that  the  first  class  of  minds  are  deserting  the  pulpit,  and 
that  their  place  is  being  filled  by  second-rate  men.  I  am  sorry  to  hear  it  I  admire  the 
great  statesman.  I  bow  to  the  mighty  poet.  I  pay  homage  to  the  great  painter.  Power, 
intellect,  gifts  divine,  I  worship  you  anywhere  I  But  God's  pulpit  I  thou  oughtest  not  to 
be  weak.    Nay,  I  mean  to  say  that  it  will  not  be  a  good  day,  a  chearlul  day,  for  EnglaBd,

when  the  first  minds  tnrn  away  from  preaching  the  Gospel.  Let  able  young  men  think  of 
this  subject,  and  ask  themseWes  whether  it  be  their  duty  to  offer  themselves  to  Christ's 
senice  in  England  or  abroad  ?  Charms,  sirs  !  I  know  of  nothing  possessing  such  chmrms 
as  preaching  the  Gospel.  I  like  to  spend  my  week  in  my  study,  listening  prayerfully  to  the 
Toice  of  Divine  love,  and  on  a  Sunday  morning  to  interpret  to  my  friends  the  secrets  I  have 
heard  during  the  week.  I  do  like  to  go  there  and,  standing  as  it  were  on  the  threshold 
of  God's  great  heaven,  push  the  curtain  aside,  and  let  in  a  flood  of  golden  glory  upon  the 
worldly  minds  of  many  who  hear  me  preach.  Charms,  indeed  I  Why,  my  yoang  sirs,  talk 
of  charms,  I  tell  you  what  you  shall  do.  You  shall  preach  the  Gospel  to  the  poor:  is  there 
00  charm  in  that  ?  You  shall  heal  the  broken-hearted :  is  there  no  charm  in  that  ?  Yon 
shall  preach  deliverance  to  the  captive :  is  there  no  charm  in  that  ?  You  shall  live  a  noble 
life  of  usefulness:  is  there  no  charm  in  that?  One  day,  wrinkled,  weak,  and  shattered,  you 
also  shall  die,  but  die  in  the  embrace  of  the  love  of  those  whom  yon  have  blessed :  flowers 
watered  by  their  tears  shall  grow  on  your  grave.  Christ  will  give  you  the  crown  of  life. 
Charms !  Why,  sirs,  I  would  not  sacrifice  that  charm  for  all  the  thrones  of  Euiope  1  Let 
young  men  think  of  this  and  offer  themselves  for  this  service  of  Christ.  One  word  more 
with  regard  to  this  call  for  more  earnest  effort.  Our  offerings  of  gold  and  silver  ought  to 
be  multiplied.  "For  brass  I  will  bring  gold,  for  iron  I  will  bring  silver;"  hoary-headed, 
old  prophecy,  thou  hast  been  there  for  ages  in  the  great  Bible  waiting  thy  fulfilment.  I  beg 
to  suggest,  my  Lord,  that  it  is  high  time  the  Church  should  turn  that  prophecy  into  history. 
Our  offerings  of  gold  and  of  silver  should  amount  to  self-denial  and  sacrifice.  Let  me  quote 
a  verse  from  the  New  Testament:  *'They  of  their  abundance  had  cast  into  the  treasury; 
she  her  all."  The  rich  people  at  Jerusalem  of  their  abundance ;  the  poor  woman  gave  her 
all ;  and  that  was  just  the  thing  that  attracted  His  eye ;  not  the  largeness  of  the  gift,  but  the 
principle  from  which  it  started.  There  is  an  admirable  definition  of  the  word  "abundance  " 
in  an  old  English  dictionary.  Abundance,  the  author  says,  is  more  than  enough.  In  old- 
fashioned  places  in  the  country,  mills  are  still  worked  by  water-power  and  not  by  steam. 
You  will  find  that  there  is  an  obstruction  put  across  the  river,  and  an  artificial  channel  out 
to  convey  the  water  from  the  river  to  the  water-wheel;  and  then  there  is  a  small  ehannel 
out  of  that  to  carry  the  superabundant  water  to  the  river.  The  mill  is  to  have  the  ''enough," 
and  the  river  the  more  than  enough.  Now,  we  ought  to  give  a  little  of  the  enough,  and 
make  a  little  sacrifice  for  Him  who  sacrificed  all  for  us.  Arithmetic  is  not  a  very  poetic 
science.  In  fact  I  never  liked  it  on  account  of  that.  I  don't  believe  much  in  it.  And  yet, 
take  arithmetic  high  enough,  and  there  is  a  great  deal  of  inspiration  in  it.  For  instance, 
£500,000  in  our  Annual  Report.  Is  there  not  poetry  in  that  ?  Or,  better  still,  the  London 
Missionary  Society's  income — £1,000,000!  I  mean  to  say  that  that  reads  quite  musical.  A 
column  of  black  smoke  becomes  transparent  the  moment  it  passes  up  into  the  sunshine ;  and 
this  dull  column  of  contributions  in  our  Annual  Report  would  become  perfectly  readable  if 
inspired  by  twenties,  hundreds,  thousands,  five  hundred  thousands,  and  especially  a  million. 
Bo  not  think  I  am  speaking  unwisely,  I  am  not  setting  it  at  too  high  a  sum.  I  am  afraid  we 
shall  not  do  it  next  year ;  but,  brethren,  the  time  is  coming  when  it  will  be  done.  Remember 
my  mill  illustration.  Give  a  little  of  the  enough,  as  well  as  of  the  more  than  enough ;  and  the 
Report  of  your  Society  shall  say  £500,000  towards  the  London  Missionary  Society.  Oh, 
England,  it  is  nothing  to  thee!  I  read  the  columns  of  thy  warlike  expenditure.  Thou 
canst,  as  it  were,  let  down  a  spectral  palace  from  the  clouds  in  Kensington.  Like  a  play- 
thing, in  six  months  thou  hast  means  to  take  it  in  pieces,  and  let  it  down  again  on  the 
beautiful  hills  of  Surrey.  Oh,  England,  it  is  nothing  to  thee  I  Thy  ships  plough  the  waves 
of  every  sea ;  thy  wealth  circulates  through  the  arteries  of  the  whole  of  human  society.  Oh, 
England !  shame  !  Thy  little  j£^  1,000 — shame !  We  are  here  not  merely  to  say  what  we 
have  done,  but  we  are  here  to  say  what  we  ought  to  do ;  and  I  hope  we  shall  go  on  towards 
the  "ought "  until  it  is  realized.  The  next  thing  in  my  Resolution  is  that  yon  recognise 
the  power  and  the  work  of  the  Divine  Spirit.  Brethren,  I  want  to  say  a  word  or  two  con- 
cerning this.  We  live  in  an  age  when  it  is  thovght  more  philosophic  to  go  away  firom  the 
spiritual  and  the  supernatural,  and  to  become  somewhat  materialized  in  onr  mode  of  thinking. 
Now,  I  differ  from  that  entirely.  What  I  want  to  assert  is,  that  you  cannot  separate  the 
Gospel  from  the  supernatural.  Do  away  with  the  supernatural,  and  your  Gospel  is  gone. 
For  instance,  it  rests  on  a  supematnral  fact ;  it  is  supported  by  supernatural  power.  The 
supernatural  fact  is  the  resurrection  of  Jesns  Christ  from  the  dead.  *'  If  Christ  be  not 
risen,  then  is  our  preaching  vain,  and  your  fsith  is  also  vain."  Christianity — Gkni's 
temple,  consecrated  temple,  lighted  up  with  the  hopes  of  many  ages,  the  house  in  which 
are  heard  the  praises  of  ten  thousand  hearts — if  Christ  be  not  risen,  thou  hast  fallen  into 
thyself  like  a  palace  of  ice  in  the  winter's  sun ;  thou  hast  melted  and  vanished  away. 
Without  the  supernatural,  Christianity  is  not.     In  a  celebrated  book  which  has  produced 


186  MISSTONAET  MAGAZINE 

greatt  agitatiMm  in  England  during  the  hut  three  or  four  years,  I  ilv4  it  asterted  tiiat  the 
vnbroken  conitane^r  of  natural  causes  is  a  primary  law  of  bdfef;  that  the  inductive- 
philosophy,  by  an  immense  aecunralation  of  evidence,  confirms  this  belief,  and  that  tfaa» 
belief  is  so  fixed  in  the  mind  (mark  this)  that  no  ind«et&ve  im]airer  can  beUere  in  a  miracle. 
People  who  are  not  in«kictive  philosophers  may,  but  no  isducttve  inquirer  oan  believe  in  a 
miracle.  Wonderful  induction !  I  have  three  ob^tions  to  that ;  the  first  ia,  thttt  inductire 
philosophy  is  only  a  youth ;  he  whs  only  born  the  ocher  day.  There  are  many  ibinfcs,. 
both  in  the  earth  and  in  the  heavens,  that  are  not  dreamed  ef  in  the  inductive  philo&opiiy. 
The  universe  is  very  large,  and  God  is  very  wonderful.  Let  indnctive  philosophy 
be  humble.  Let  it  do  its  work  diligently,  prayerfnily,  trustingly,  hambly,  but  let 
not  the  youth  make  reckless  assertions.  In  this  grand  old  creation  take  time,  thoa 
stripling  philosophy.  Don't  make  these  large,  broad  assertions,  lest  thoa  shetv  thj 
youth  and  thy  folly  by  so  doing.  Thou  wilt  be  heartily  sorry  fbr  it  by  and  by  when 
thou  oomevt  to  maturity.  Secondly,  it  does  not  appear  to  me— I  wbh  to  spei^ 
Mrly — good  metaphysics  to  say  that  the  primary  ktws  of  our  belief  become  stpength. 
ened  by  experience.  Will  yon  think  of  it  for  a  moment  ?  Your  belief  in  can^ttiea 
dees  not  increase  with  knowledge.  It  is  as  strong  in  a  boy  as  in  a  man.  Yon 
have  a  curly-headed  little  fellow  at  home;  j«st  knock  at  t^e  door;  he  asks  w1k>  did 
that.  He  never  thought  that  it  did  itself.  The  idea  of  causation  is  as  strong  in  him  as  in 
yon.  Understand  once,  that  the  three  angles  of  a  triangle  are  equal  to  two  right  angles 
and  seeing  all  the  angles  m  creation  will  not  make  you  believe  it  more  strongly.  Or  tidsp 
another  illustration.  Increased  knowledge  in  the  science  of  numbers  does  not  make  a  man 
more  sure  that  two  and  two  make  four.  I  am  no  great  arithmetician,  yet  I  believe  that  a» 
well  as  any  of  you.  I  wish  to  speak  most  respMtfully  of  learning,  and  of  learned  and 
scholaiff  men ;  but  I  do  mean  to  say  that  we  very  often  allow  reckless  things  to  pass  lor 
great  depths  when  they  are  great  shallows.  There  is  nothing  like  taking  hold  of  a  thing  and 
looking  at  it — saying.  What  are  you,  and  what  is  your  business  here  ? — taking  it  to  pieoes 
and  anriyzinfc  it.  After  all  that  is  said  about  removing  the  supematnral  foundations,  I  ana 
glad  to  say  that  the  foundation  of  God  standeth  sure,  and  there  are  many  here  resting  upon 
it — the  everiasting  Rock  of  all  Ages.  There  was  a  ^ird  objection.  As  a  matter  of  fact,  it 
is  not  true  that  no  inductive  inquirer  can  believe  in  a  miracle.  I  should  be  very  aorry  to 
think  there  is  bo  inductive  philosopher  here ;  but,  according  to  this,  if  you  believe  in  n 
miracle,  you  are  not  and  cannot  be  one.  I  mean  to  assert  that  there  are  hundreds  of  men 
in  England,  who  are  not  strangers  to  Bacon's  methad  of  philosophy— men  who  have  read 
the  histories  of  philosophy,  who  have  gone  into  the  beautiful,  charming,  bewitching  meadow- 
land  of  philosophy — men  who  have  looked  on  her  beaatiful  feoe  and  been  thriUed  by  tha 
wonderful  influence  that  goes  forth  from  it  Let  no  one  suppose  I  am  speaking  ag^uaat 
learning  and  philosophy.  There  are,  I  say,  many  philosophers  in  this  room  who  still 
believe  m  miracles.  They  believe,  for  instance,  that  Christ  died  on  the  cross  1800 
years  ago,  rose  from  the  dead— that  He  k  to^y  living  in  heaven;  and,  more  than  thiC^ 
they  trust  all  that  they  have  and  are  into  the  hands  af  Christ,  and  they  say  every  nighl 
and  every  Boommg,  *<  Whom  have  I  in  heaven  but  Thee ;  I  desire  noae  on  earth  besida 
Thee."  Christ  I  Thou  art  my  all  in  both  worMi.  Here  I  serve  Thee,  and  when,  fluttaring 
and  trembling,  soy  timid  spirit  lands  in  the  great  spirit  world,  it  is  Thy  smiling  face  1 
expect  to  see  welcoming  me  home.  Yes,  there  are  many  inductive  philosophers  who  can 
and  do  believe  in  miracles.  The  Gospel  is  spread  by  a  supernatural  power ;  it  is  the  work 
of  the  Holy  Spirit.  The  older  I  become,  the  more  firmly  I  believe  in  the  neeesaity  for 
the  coming  down  of  God — not  only  God's  truth,  but  God  himself,  into  oontaet  with  the 
human  mind.  An  able  American  writer  has  said  that  if  one  of  the  planets  became  prodigal, 
and  broke  away  from  its  orbit,  nothing  coald  bring  it  back  firom  the  region  of  winter  and 
nigh^  but  the  going  of  the  sun  to  fetch  it.  He  would  have  to  go  and  throw  his  long  arou 
of  gravitation  around  the  unwise  young  comet,  and  thus  he  would  carry  it  back.  Brethren, 
we  did  break  away  from  our  Father.  We  went  into  a  strange  country,  and  found  it 
darkness  and  death.  And  what  did  He  ?  He  came  down  Himself.  God  in  omr  natun 
appeared  in  the  person  of  Christ.  Great  Christ,  we  bless  Thee  I  Through  Jesus  ChriBt 
God  came  down — lays  hold  of  the  wandering  one,  places  him  in  his  orbit  again,  wham  kt 
shall  revolve  in  peace  afouad  tfcie  throne  of  God  for  ever  and  ever.  Brethren,  thie  is  the 
grand  power  in  the  Church,  the  presenee  of  God's  Spirit.  I  think  no  man  can  live  in 
London  without  feeling  the  absolute  necessity  for  God's  Spirit  coming  into  the  minds  aC 
men  to  make  them  good  and  holy.  That  is  die  greatest  power  in  the  world.  Int^leci 
is  power.  A  man  who  had  been  to  Higbgate,  talking  with  a  great  English  philesepher 
who  is  now  no  more,  said,  on  speaking  of  him  afterwards,  *'  I  was  silent  in  his  presenee ; 
I  could  not  speak  ;  bis  power  oppressed  me."    There  is  great  power  in  intellect.     When

yoa  meet  a  man  that  ii  meottUj  greater  than  yon  are,  he  is  king  and  yoa  are  the  anbject. 
You  OMj  rebel  against  it,  but  still  yoa  know,  as  I  know,  you  mast  bow.  Eloquence  is  a 
power  in  tbe  Church.  We  are  at  the  mercy  of  the  eloquent  speaker ;  we  are  helpless  in 
his  hasida.  We  are  tbe  instrnmente ;  ke  is  the  player.  He  is  Moses ;  our  hearts  are  the 
rocka.  With  his  mystic  rod  he  touches  them  one  after  the  other,  and  the  water  gashes 
forth.  I  ahoald  like  to  see  all  onr  pulpits  filled  with  eloquent  men — men  of  flexible  lip, 
men  af  ezpresave  face—men  who  have  that  something  whioh  cannot  be  described,  but  which 
goes  forth  a  quivering  power  from  the  battery  of  the  speaker's  heart.  May  God  raise  up 
men  of  abandant  power  in  eloquent  speaking !  But  it  is  not  by  intellect ;  it  is  not  by 
eloquence ;  it  is  "  by  My  power  and  My  Spirit,"  saith  the  Lord  of  Hosts.  And  let  me 
say  there  have  been  days  when  the  Church  was  a  power  in  the  earih.  We  read  ef  the 
horeic  ages ;  they  are  praised  by  tbe  old  poets  aa  the  beautiful  and  distant  ages  when  fact 
and  myth  embrace,  where  history  and  tradition  meet — when  tradition  melts  into  history, 
and  hiatary,  like  another  colour  in  the  raiabaw,  melts  back  ioto  tradition.  In  that/ 
beautiM  period  they  have  placed  the  iMroio  ages  when  giants  and  Titans  li'ved  on  the 
earth,  and  not  small  beings  such  as  we  are.  Brethren,  this  is  tradition,  and  myth,  and 
poetry ;  but  there  have  been  real  heroic  ages  in  the  Cburoh  af  God,  when  Moses  com« 
mnaed  with  God  on  the  trembling  brow  of  Sinai— when  David  eoosposed  the  spiritual 
hymae  which  thrill  our  hearts  ia  the  nineteenth  oeotary— when  Isaiah  with  rapt  seraphic 
fire  spake  to  the  sinful  nations — when  the  Baptist  thundered  rebukes  on  the  banks  id 
Jordan — when  the  great  Paul  emptied  the  tempkn  of  Greece — when  St.  John  saw  visiotts 
ni  Patflsoa — wlwn  reformers  straggled — when  martyrs  died— tbea  there  was  power  ia  the 
Churches.  Men  were  fiUed  with  the  Holy  Ghost.  Ministers  in  England — we  want  power. 
Missionaries  abroad — ye  want  power.  Teachan  in  our  oolleges — ^ye  want  power,  net  only 
to  send  forth  scholars,  but  inspired  yonag  men.  Deaooaa  of  our  Churches — it  is  no  time  to 
sleep.  Churches  of  the  land — you  ought  not  to  be  the  dull,  apachetie,  material  things 
Many  of  you  ane.  We  cannot  afford  to  he  weak.  Power  everywhere.  Power  in  the 
spriag,  hcuating  through  the  great  rock ;  power  in  the  grass,  cutting  its  way  through  the 
soil;  power  in  the  lightning  iash;  and  shall  the  Church  be  weak?  1  see  tbe  syren

Brave  men  were  they.  I  Itke  to  shake  hands  with  them  across  the  ages.  They  did  their 
work  nobly ;  they  crossed  the  stage  and  were  hurried  beyond  the  scene  into  the  darkness 
id  death.  They  are  gone,  and  we  are  here ;  and  shall  we  be  weak  ?  I  don't  mean  that  we 
can  heeome  as  Moses,  and  Jeremiah,  and  Paul ;  but  I  do  mean  to  say  that  as  the  ancient 
TttaDS  went  up  to  heaven  and  stole  fire  from  the  son,  you  may  go  aside  with  God,  tonch 
the  Divine  mind,  aod  come  forth  Divine  men,  to  mould  the  hearts  af  this  aatioa,  or  to 
spread  the  Gospel  of  Christ  in  foreign  lands.  Yoa  have  heard  me  kindly.  I  have  apoken 
out  brotherly  on  this  subject.  May  God  bless  you  all !  May  the  power  of  the  Lord  God  of 
Israel  clothe  His  priests  with  salvation;  may  it  be  known  in  a  dry,  hard,  harsh,  sceptical 
age,  that  God  is  in  Israel,  and  that  religion  is  a  power* 

The  Hon.  k,  Kinnaird,  M.P.,  in  aeeonding  the  Resolution^  said,— After  the  remarkable 
address  whkh  we  have  just  listened  to,  I  confoss  it  looks  like  trifling  ta  address  to  you  a 
few  oommonplaoe  observations  whieh,  as  your  Treasurer,  perhaps,  I  am  hound  ta  ofler. 
I  feel  it  would  be  far  better  to  sit  and  ponder  over  those  aiighty  truths  which  our  inspected 
friend  has  presented  before  as.  I  think  it  would  be  well  for  as  to  take  in  and  ponder  and 
leAeot,  rather  than  to  attempt  so  soon  to  follow  him.  But  I  mnst  congratulate  you  on  ttte 
Report,  which,  though  less  eloquent  ia  words,  is  eloquent  ia  focts;  and  I  mast,  as  your 
Treasurer,  oengratulate  you  on  this,  that  though  we  have  oat  yet  reached  to  thai  point 
.  which  the  speaker  who  has  just  addressed  yon  spoke  of,  and  which  I,  as  your  Treasurer,  will 
fondly  hope  may  be  realized,  though  last  year,  through  causes  which  we  can  all  understand 
and  sympathise  with — namely,  the  distress  In  onr  mannfoctaring  districts,  which  was  so 
aobly  overcome  and  conquered  by  our  worMng  popalatmn — you  had  sosm  foiling  off  in 
yoar  funds ;  yet  this  year  I  can  oongratnlate  yon  on  the  foot  that  you  have  again  reached 
the  standard  from  whioh  you  bad  departed.  And  I  hope  we  shall  all  carry  in  mind  the 
address  we  have  heard,  in  whieh  the  speaker  told  us  it  is  possible — and  I  believe  it  is  fully 
passible,  if  we  who  are  here  present^  who  are  roost  of  us  engaged  so  much  in  worldly 
callings,  aoald  but  realize  the  high  calfing  to  which  he  has  pointed  as — I  believe  it  wonld 
not  be  long  before  your  funds  would  reach  j^lOO,000.  But  I  shaU  confine  myself  to  a  few 
observations  suggested  by  the  presence  of  my  friends  on  my  left,  the  Envoys  from 


188  MISSIONARY  MAGAZINE 

Madagascar,  and  which  bringi  back  to  my  mind  a  field  of  labour  full  of  instruction.  And 
what  have  we  learned  in  Madagascar  ?  Why,  that  that  Word — that  mighty  Word  which  has 
been  so  eloquently  allnded  to  by  the  reverend  gentleman — the  Word  of  Ood^alone  is  able 
to  save  souls,  independently  of  any  church  organization  whatever.  Ttiat  is  the  lesson  that 
we  have  learned  in  Madagascar.  It  was  the  sowing  of  the  Word,  sometimes  amid  persecu- 
tion, that  is  now  bearing  truit;  and  we  hear  to-day  in  that  Report  these  glad  tidings  from 
Madagascar,  which  show  that  the  Word  has  secretly  but  effectively  done  iu  work,  and  we 
have  the  Church  in  Madagascar  rising  more  mighty,  more  grand  than  in  any  previous  part 
of  its  history.  But  perhaps  the  best  way  is  to  take  the  converse,  and  let  us  figure  to 
ourselves  what  Madagascar  would  have  been  without  the  Bible.  And  what  wouM  have 
been  the  condition  of  these  islands  in  the  Pacific  from  which  such  sad  tidings  come  to  us — 
what  would  they  have  been  without  the  Gospel  ?  And  I  say  it  is  for  us  to  take  these 
things  to  our  hearts,  and  to  work  mightily  in  the  service  of  our  God  and  Saviour.  It  is 
these  considerations,  and  from  having  long  watched  with  the  deepest  interest  the  work  of 
this  Society,  which  induced  me  to  accept  the  office  of  Treasurer ;  and  I  trust  that,  if  my 
life  be  spared,  I  shall  be  able  to  congratulate  you  on  many  successive  occasions  on 
the  steady  progress  of  the  work.  For  myself,  1  trust  that  men  will  be  at  the  call  of 
call's  need  in  our  Church  ;  men  as  eloquent  as  our  friend ;  that  young  men  will  be  raised  up 
ready  to  go  forth,  as  he  says,  to  that  glorious  work  so  full  of  charms.  But  there  is  one 
point  in  the  Report  which  I  heard  with  great  satis£sction^namely,  the  probability  of  an 
increased  number  of  Missionaries  being  sent  to  India — India,  that  is  connected  with  this 
country  by  so  many  wonderful  ties.  When  we  think  of  that  vast  country,  and  the  teeming 
millions  of  India ;  when  we  think  that,  with  all  our  exertions  for  so  many  years,  how  very 
little  have  been,  humanly  speaking,  the  results,  it  is  needless  to  consider  the  tact  that 
however  small  in  reference  to  these  millions  is  the  living  Christianity  there,  yet  I  do  not 
undervalue  the  fact,  as  stated  in  the  Report,  that  civilization  and  nominal  Christianity 
spread  abroad  in  that  land  has  in  a  marvellous  manner  prepared  the  way.  I  believe  that  the 
system  of  superstition  has  received  a  mighty  shock ;  and  I  firmly  believe  there  never  was  a 
period  in  the  MiMionary  history  of  that  country  when  there  was  a  more  hopeful  prospect 
than  at  the  present  moment.  Let  us  then  occupy  that  land  in  the  manner  it  is  proposed 
we  should  do.  But  the  main  thing  to  look  for  is  the  employment  of  the  native  converts. 
I  believe  that  no  great  impression  will  be  made  in  that  land  until  the  600  native  converu 
now  scattered  about  among  our  Missions  there  are  multiplied,  and  that  we  have  native 
convert  teachers  in  every  centre  of  that  vast  population.  There  is  another  step  that  I  trust 
will  not  be  overlooked.  I  trust  that  we  shall  think  of  the  wants  of  the  female  population 
of  that  land.  Depend  upon  it,  that  unless  we  gain  the  hearts  of  the  female  part  of  the 
population,  we  shall  never  cover  the  land  with  converts.  It  is  with  these  considerations 
that  1  now  second  this  Resolution ;  and  I  cannot  but  hope  that,  if  life  be  spared,  we  shall 
yet  realise  many  of  what  may  be  deemed  the  poetical  views  of  the  mover  of  the  Rttolution  ; 
for  I  believe  that  the  promises  in  Scripture  are  quite  as  large,  nay  far  larger,  than  even  the 
poetic  fancies  of  our  esteemed  friend. 

The  Rev.  Gsorgb  Hall,  B.A.,  Missionary,  Madras : — My  Lord  and  Christian  Friends, 
— After  the  admirable  speeches  to  which  we  have  listened  from  the  gentlemen  who  have 
moved  and  seconded  this  Resolution,  my  duty  in  rising  to  support  it  is  abundantly  dear.  I 
am  here  now  as  a  Missionary  from  India— a  soldier  lately  returned  from  the  enemy's 
country  where  war  is  being  carried  on.  I  have  come  from  the  forefront  of  the  battle- 
field, where  the  armies  of  the  Lord  of  Hosts  are  fighting  against  the  forces  of  the  Prince 
of  Darkne^.  Every  loyal  Christian  here  takes  a  deep  interest  in  that  struggle ;  and  I  believe 
all  would  ask  of  me  the  questions,  How  goes  the  conflict  yonder  ?  Are  our  brethren, 
who  in  our  name  fight  in  India,  gaining  victories  over  the  powers  of  evil?  Are  they 
marching  onwards  ?  Does  real  success  follow  their  efforts  ?  In  one  word,  I  believe  all  here 
would  ask  me  what  are  the  results  of  Missionary  labour  in  India,  and  this  question  I  shall 
now  endeavour  to  answer. 

My  Lord,  in  estimating  the  results  of  Missionary  labour  in  India,  we  must  bear  in  mind 
what  was  the  state  of  that  country  even  so  recently  as  the  beginning  of  the  present  century. 
TAeM,  the  most  appalling  atrocities  were  committed  under  the  sacred  name  of  religion.  7!fteii, 
in  every  part  of  the  land  the  fires  of  suttee  were  lighted,  and  many  a  widow  was  burned  to 
death  beside  the  dead  body  of  her  husband,  her  own  eldest  son  setting  fire  to  the  pile. 
Then,  the  murder  of  female  children  was  common;  and  so  late  as  1836,  a  Rajuput 
chief  estimated  that  20,000  were  annually  destroyed  in  the  provinces  of  Rajupootana  and 
Malwa  alone.  Then,  human  sacrifices,  and  self-immolation  were  frequent  before  the  shrines 
of  the  sanguinary  idols  of  India.      But  now,  how  different  is  Indians  state !    The  first  Mis*

tionaries  lifted  the  veil  which  shrouded  Hindomsm,  and  expoied  these  and  many  other 
enormities.  The  Christian  principle  of  Britain  was  hronght  to  bear  on  India's  rulers,  and 
these  crimes  were  removed  from  the  picture  of  Hindoo  idolatry.  These  deeds  of  darkness 
have  been  banished,  we  trust,  for  ever,  and  only  to  be  heard  of  in  future  as  dark  spots 
in  Indians  history,  which  coming  generations  of  her  people  will  be  amazed  to  read  in  the 
annals  of  their  country,  just  as  we  look  back  now  at  the  tales  of  ancient  Druidism  and  its 
horrors  in  this  land  of  ours. 

Bat,  my  Lord,  let  us  look  rather  at  our  own  times,  and  consider  what  have  been  the 
fruits  of  Mbsionary  labour  in  India.  We  can  point  now  to  the  whole  of  God's  Word,  pub- 
lished in  fourteen  of  India's  languages,  and  to  the  New  Testament,  or  paru  of  it,  in  twelve 
others — ^making  the  sacred  Scriptures,  in  whole,  or  in  part,  in  no  fewer  than  twenty-six 
of  the  living  languages  of  India.  And  we  have  it  from  the  best  authority,  that  during  the  last 
ten  years  upwards  of  one  million  and  a  half  copies  have  been  distributed  among  the  people. 
Along  with  this,  we  can  also  point  to  Christian  books  and  tracts  in  all  these  languages,  and 
can  tell  yon  that  eight  and  a  half  millions  of  these  have  in  ten  years  been  circulated  among 
the  Hindoos.  The  press,  with  all  its  mighty  power,  has  been  brought  to  bear  fully  on 
the  stronghold  of  Hindooism,  and  this  has  residted  from  the  labours  of  Missiooaries. 

And,  my  Lord,  Missionaries  are  doing  a  great  educational  work  in  India.    In  the  schools 
supported  by  all  the  Missionary  Societies,  there  are  96,000  young  people  receiving  a  Christian 
education — daily  reading  the  Word  of  God.     Wherever,  in  rural  districts,  we  are  able  to 
open  vernacular  schools,  they  are  filled  with  scholars.    In  India's  large  cities,  we  find  the 
adults  of  the  middle  and  higher  classes  almost  inaccessible  to  the  Christian  Missionary,  but 
these  classes  are  intensely  anxious  to  have  their  sons  well  educated,  especially  in  the 
English  language.     AU  Missionary  Societies,  observing  this,  have  in  these  large  cities  es- 
tablished Institutions  where  an  excellent  education  is  imparted — and  this  at  an  age  when 
the  minds  of  the  youthful  Hindoos  are  fresh,  inquiring,  and  susceptible  of  impressions ;  there 
are  maltitudes  of  young  men,  the  fathers  and  leaders  of  the  next  generation,  who  are  daily 
reading  the  Bible.     Common  vernacular  schools  perform  a  great  preparatory  work.      But 
these  Institutions,  from  the  advanced  age  of  many  of  the  pupils,  and  other  circumstances, 
have  proved  to  be  a  converting  agency,  and  have  been  much  owned  and  blessed  of  God. 
In  such  a  sphere  I  have  been  called  to  labour  much  in  the  great  city  of  Madras,  where 
several  years  ago  our  Society  commenced  an  Institution.    Ere  long  400  Hindoo  and  Maho- 
medan  youths  were  gathered  around  us,  and  if  we  had  accommodation  we  might  have  had 
many  more.  As  an  illustration  of  the  result  of  this  form  of  Missionary  labour,  I  could  point 
to  several  young  men  who  came  as  heathen  pupils  to  our  Institution,  but  from  reading 
God's  Word  were  led  to  renounce  Hindooism  and  break  their  caste.     By  professing  them- 
selves Christians,  they  had  to  leave  father  and  mother,  and  sever  the  ties  dearest  to  the 
human  heart ;  and  some  of  them  had  also  to  sacrifice  the  prospect  of  great  earthly  posses- 
^ns,  in  order  that  they  might  obtain  salvation  through  Christ.   But  further,  my  Lord.   We 
may  now  educate  many  of  the  high-caste  females  of  India.     I  need  not  enlarge  here  on  the 
degradation  of  woman  in  that  land,  where,  on  account  of  her  supposed  inferiority  and  de- 
pravity it  was  held  to  be  wrong  and  disgraceful  to  teach  a  woman  to  read.    Often  in  years 
gone  by  did  Missionaries  lament  the  fact  that  there  was  no  possible  means  of  bringing  the 
Gospel  to  bear  on  the  females  of  the  higher  castes,  who  were  ignorant  and  superstitions  in 
the  extreme,  and  devoted  to  idoUtry.     I  have  seen  a  Hindoo  mother,  by  her  tears  and  en- 
treaties, take  her  son  away  with  her  after  he  had  professed  himself  a  Christian,  and  exert 
such  an  influence  over  him  as  has  for  years  kept  him  with  her,  and  outwardly  worshipping 
Vishnu.    A  few  years  ago  the  education  of  high-caste  females  was  unknown ;  but  of  late 
a  striking  desire  for  female  education  has  sprung  up  among  the  most  enlightened  of  the 
people,  arising,  I  believe,  from  the  influence  of  the  liberal  education  we  have  been  impart- 
ing to  young  men.     Two  years  ago  we  commenced  a  school  in  Madras  with  four  or  five 
high  cute  Hindoo  girls,  and  at  the  close  of  last  year  had  seventy  under  Christian  instruc- 
tion.   Some  of  these  now  read  the  Gospels  in  their  own  language — a  fact  deeply  interesting 
to  a  Missionary ;  for  could  we  search  back  for  2000  years,  not  one  of  the  mothers  of  these 
girls  could  have  been  proved  able  to  read,  far  less  could  they  have  been  seen  reading  God's 
Word.    Some  other  societies  had  begun  this  work  even  before  we  commenced  it  in  Madras. 
In  several  parts  of  India  similar  schools  may  be  found,  and  this  we  regard  as  a  most  hopeful 
result  of  Missions. 

And,  my  Lord,  another  result  of  Missionary  labour  in  India  has  been  the  accomplishment 
of  a  great  preparatory  work  for  the  ultimate  rapid  spread  of  Christianity  there.  With  a 
system  which  has  stood  firm  for  3000  years,  and  has  millions  of  hereditary  priests  to 
watch  over  it,  and  with  their  social  barrier-like  caste,  which  rises  up  to  keep  the  Hindoos 
in  their  present  state,  making  the  first  step  into  the  Christian  '^^|l*|f*^(f^^(^^(5^l^  poUa-

tion  and  fearful  sacrifice :  can  we  wonder  that  the  progress  of  Christianity  should  be  alow  ? 
But  I  believe  the  work  is  begun,  and  is  now  going  on,  which  will  certainly  undermine 
and  overthrow  the  huge  fabric  of  Hindoo  idolatry.     Many  a  portion  of  God's  Word,  or  a 
tract,  is  being  thoughtfully  read  and  pondered  over  in  secret ;  and  in  rural  districts,  man j  a 
statement  made  by  the  Missionary  as  he  preaches  in  the  busy  bazaar,  or  beneath  the  ancient 
tamarind  or  banyan  trees  of  Hindoo  villages,  sinks  deep  into  the  hearts,  and  I  believe  is  like 
good  seed,  only  waiting  a  favourable  opportunity  to  spring  up  and  bnng  forth  fruit.       In 
large  cities,  too.  there  are  multitudes  of  young  men  who  know  enough  of  science  to  know- 
that  their  own  Pnranas  are  ftilse,  and  they  have  read  another  Vetham — the  true  Word  of 
God,  the  holiness  of  which  contrasts  strangely  and  strongly  with  the  books  they  have  been 
taught  to  consider  divine.      Illustrations  of  this  kind  of  preparatory  work  are  constantly 
coming  to  the  notice  of  Missionaries.     I  may  mention  one.      Some  time  ago  a   Mis- 
sionary was  preaching  not  Hr  from  Madras »  and  some  Brahmins  began  to  oppose  the  state- 
ments he  made.     A  }'oang  man,  with  the  mark  of  Vishnu  on  his  forehead,  then  pressed 
forward  to  the  side  of  the   Mifsionary  and  assisted  him  very  effectively  to  answer  the 
Brahmins  and  uphold  Christianity.      After  the  discussion  the  Missionary  asked  the  yonnf^ 
man  who  he  was,  and  was  toM  that  he  was  then  a  student  in  the  Government  Medical 
College ;  but  that  he  had  been  for  some  years  a  pupil  in  our  Institution,  and  the  convictions 
he  had  expressed,  and  the  arguments  used,  had  been  learned  there,  and  he  added  that  he 
hoped   one    day  openly  to  profess   himself  a  Christian.      Every   Missionary  connected 
wHh  these  Institutions  could  point  to  scores — some  of  them  to  hundreds,  of  old  pupils, 
now  settled  in  life,  and  occupying  important  positions,  who  are  intellectually  convinced 
that  Christianity  is  true,  and  would   hail  with  joy  a  general  movement  in  its  favour. 
The   Hindoos  are  generally  a  timid   race,  singularly  unfit  to  stand   alone   and  brave 
the    brunt   of    the    odium    and    reprobation    which    follow    breaking    caste.        Their 
national  genius  leads  them  to  act  in  masses  ;  and,  knowing  as  I  do  that  every  year  is  in- 
creasing the  number  of  those  who  are  convinced  that  idolatry  and  caste  are  wicked  and  vain, 
and  that  Christianity  is  from  God,  I  believe  we  have  great  things  to  expect  from  mn(di 
Missionary  labour  in  India,  which  up  to  the  present  time  has  not  resulted  in  an  open 
profession  of  the  Christian  faith. 

But,  my  Lord,  in  stating  the  resnlte  of  Missions  in  India,  we  can  take  still  higher  ground. 
We  can  point  to  actual  fruit  already  gathered.  Confining  myself  to  Southern  India,  the 
Presidency  of  Madras,  with  which  I  stand  more  immediately  connected,  I  may  state  that 
there  1 10,060  pr9fessitrg  native  Christians  are  connected  with  all  Protestant  Missionary 
Societies,  and  of  these  20,218  are  commnnicants  or  members  of  the  Church  of  Christ. 
Here,  then,  we  can  point  British  Christians  to  a  great  fact — iht  fact  of  20,000  natives  in 
one  of  the  Indian  Presidencies,  now  sitting  down  at  the  table  of  the  Lord  and  comme- 
morating His  death  and  dying  love ;  and  surely  this  speaks  of  progress.  Here  I  may  mention 
that  there  are  25,849  native  Christians  connected  with  the  stations  of  our  own  Society  in 
Southern  India,  and,  of  these,  1 808  are  commqnicants.  It  is  true  that  the  great  majority 
of  converts  in  that  part  of  India  were  originally  of  yery  low  rank  in  the  social  scale  among 
their  countrymen.  They  had,  in  fact,  no  proper  caste  at  all,  and  in  general  had  little  to 
suffer  in  becoming  Christians.  Missionaries  at  first  found  this  class  most  accessible,  and 
wisely  devoted  much  of  then*  attention  to  them.  They  have  precious  immortal  souls  to  be 
saved,  though  the  Hindoos  despise  them,  and  we  rejoice  to  see  the  Shanars  and  Pariahs  of 
India  brought  into  the  Redef^mer's  fold.  But  now  we  are  reaching  and  making  our  labours 
felt  even  among  the  highest  classes.  No  longer  can  the  high-caste  heathen  look  upon  our 
efforts  with  indiflerence  and  scorn,  as  they  used  to  do  not  many  years  ago,  and  say  we 
eonld  not  afiect  or  reach  them.  Now,  especially  in  connection  with  onr  edbcational  work, 
we  have  gene  into  the  very  centre  of  high-caste  heathenism.  We  have  taken  some  of  the 
sons  of  the  leading  families  in  the  Hindoo  community,  who  have  left  all  for  Christ.  There 
Is  not  a  caste  in  India,  from  the  highest  to  the  lowest,  which  is  not  represented  in  the 
Church  of  Christ  there.  Of  late  years,  the  progress  of  our  native  Churches  has  been  most 
encouraging.  When  we  thus  see  flourishing  vigorous  native  Churches  springing  up,  with 
an  annually  increasing  ratio  of  additions  to  their  membership,  yre  may  well  point  to  tins 
Isct  as  a  most  hopeful  and  cheering  result  of  Missions  in  India. 

And,  my  Lord,  in  stating  something  of  the  results  of  Indian  Missions,  allow  me  to  advert 
to  one  more  topic.  This  is  the  bringing  forward  a  Native  Ministry  of  the  Gospel.  I 
rejoiced  to  hear  such  prominence  given  to  this  in  the  noble  sermon  to  which  we  listened 
with  such  delight  in  Surrey  Chapel  yesterday.  I  also  rejoice  to  have  heard  such  importance 
given  to  this  subject  in  the  Report  to  which  we  have  listened  here  this  morning.  I  need 
not  remind  such  an  assemblage  as  this,  that  an  efiScient  Native  Ministry  is,  under  God, 
India's  greatest  want.     Bnropean  Missionaries  cannot  be  expected  to  evangelize  that  land. 


FOE  JU2sE,    1864.  If  1 

The  conntrj  is  so  rast  in  extent,  the  popxMioB  k  se  great,  the  maDners  and  customs,  as 
well  as  the  habits  oi  thoaght  of  the  people  are  so  diffierent  from  oars,  and  withal  the  climate 
is  so  hostile  to  European  life,  that  we  mast  look  to  the  natiTes  to  carry  on  this  work  to 
its  glorious  issue.  All  the  lessons  of  history,  also,  lead  us  to  expect  great  relifpoos  and 
social  refonoetioos  or  changes,  to  be  wrought  out  by  the  people  of  the  land  where  they  afe 
accoai|riished.  Foveigpnecs  may  lay-  the  foundation,  but  natbe  energy  and  power  alone  can 
rear  the  fabric  which  shall  be  a  national  monument — an  index  of  the  nation's  progress  and 
ekratiOB.  It  most  be  so  with  India.  We  must  bane  natives,  sons  of  the  soil,  to  be  for 
India  what  Luther  was  for  Gefmaay,  Wyeliffie,  Latimer,  and  other  Reformers,  to  England^ 
and  John  Knox  to  Scotlasd,  ere  we  can  expect  to  see  great  things  in  the  triumphs  of  the 
GospdL  OTor  the  deep- rooted  idolatry  of  the  Hindoos. 

In  the  Madras  Presidency  there  are  903  Native  Catechisis  aaployed  bf  all  tiie  Missionarj 
Societies.  We  thaak  God  for  these  men.  They  are  doing  a  most  important  work'  in 
evplaiiiing  the  Word  of  God  both  to  Natiye  Christians  and  the  heathen,  especially  of  the 
dass  te  which  they  originally  belonged.  Bat  we  need  men  capable  of  acting  mere  iade- 
pendeaatly.  We  need  men  who  will  be  inflnential  among  all  classes  of  the  oomnmoity — 
both  aoMBg  those  who  are  stiU  fettered  by  the  absosd  prejadioes  of  caste,  and  aaiong  tlsose 
who  have  reoeived  a  liberal  ednoatioa.  We  need  efficient  natvre  pastors,  as  weU  as  powerfiil 
native  preachers  among  the  heathen.  In  South  India  there  are  now  sixty  ovdained  native 
minisfeeca*  of  whom,  however,  only  ^ree  belong  to  our  Society.  Bot  I  hope  we  shall  ere 
long  have  many  more.  In  diffsrent  parts  of  our  own  Sowth  Indian  Mission  field  we  have 
made  acnngemeafts  which  wiUU  we  hope,  hanre  this  result — and  tome  also  of  the  converts 
of  onr  Madras  Institntion  will,  I  trust,  be  fbnnd  worthy  of  ^is  office.  With  this  object  io 
view,  we  have  for  the  last  eight  years  had  a  theological  class,  where  converts  and  other 
Christian  yonng  men  have  been  under  traioiag  for  the  Losd's  work.  They  have  received 
a  good  edncation,  both  in  Rnglish  and  the  vernacular,  and  for  years  have  been  aocnstomed, 
more  or  less,  to  preach  in  thc^  own  langaage.  Before  I  left  Madras,  thirteen  young  men 
from  this  class  bad  been  appointed  to  spheres  of  labovir — some  of  them  hundreds  of  miles 
np  oevBtry.  After  a  year  or  two  of  probatioA  as  preachers,  I  hope  to  see  some,  if  not  ^l  of 
^ese  young  men,  esdained  as  native  ministers. 

As  an  Ulnsteitkm  of  the  iasportance  and  valoe  of  an  efficient  native  agency,  I  nay  be 
allowed  to  refer  to  a  recent  incident  which  has  greatly  interested  me.  Jost  before  I  left 
India  last  year*  one  of  our  students— a  yooth  whom  I  baptized  in  I9b7 — was  appointed  to 
labour  ia  a  heathen  village  thirty  miles  from  Madias ;  and  the  first  letter  I  opened  on  reaohing 
London  told  me  tliat  he  bad  already  been  the  means  of  the  coaversioifr  of  the  Brahmin  priest 
of  timt  village.  This  priest  was  a  young  man  whose  duty  it  was  to  perform  the  daily  sacrMoe 
in  the  temple  of  Siva.  He  frequently  visited  onr  Bfiasioa  agent,  and  listened  to  the  Gospel 
as  he  preached  to  the  people  of  the  viUages,  and  thai  came  for  private  conversation.  These 
conversations  gradually  led  to  a  conviction  of  his  own  sinfulness,  and  the  folly  'of  the 
worship  he  was  daily  performing.  He  resolved,  in  his  own  way,  to  test  the  power  of  the 
idol  which  from  infeney  he  had  worshipped;  and,  on  one  occasion,  kicked  it  and  sat  astride 
on  it,  to  see  if  it  would  take  offence.  There  vras,  ol  coarse,  no  exhibition  of  Siva^s  wrath 
at  snch  an  inscdt  from  his  own  priest.  After  soma  time  this  youth  left  his  native  village 
and  lua  parents,  and  went  to  Madras,  in  order  to  obtain  such  protection  as  would  enable 
him  to  declare  himself  a  Christian.  There  he  tore  bis  sacred  Brahminical  thread  in  piecesn 
and  broke  his  caste.  When  his  parents  and  relatives  came  entreating  him  to  go  back,  he 
zemained  firm  in  his  faith  in  Christ.  He  has  been  baptized,  and,  accordug  to  aecoonts  I 
received  last  vfeek,  is  an  earnest  student  of  the  Word  of  God.  In  this  way,  throngh  the 
agency  of  the  natives,  I  believe  the  Gospel  is  destined  to  spread  in  India.  The  European 
Missionary  there  is  but  a  pioneer— ihe  bleaker  up  of  the  folk>w  ground.  He  sows  a  little, 
and  reapa  a  little.  Some  of  the  fruits  of  bis  labours  (with  God's  Messing)  he  moulds 
into  fresh  labourers,  and  sends  them  to  scatter  the  seed  of  the  Word  broadcast  far  and  wide. 
It  is  their  sowing  which  will  take  vigorous  root  and  become  naturalized  in  the  new  soil. 
It  is  tkmr  sowing  which  will  spring  up  and  bring^  forth  an  abundant  harvest ;  and  it  is  the 
native  labonrers  who  will  return  with  joy,  bringing  their  sheaves  widi  them,  and  tkey  wtfl 
eelebrate  with  gladsome  shout  the  hain^est-home  of  India  bvoaght  to  the  feet  of  Jesus.  Oh 
diat  we  had  hundreds,  yea  thottsands  of  such  men  1 

Snch,  my  Lord,  are  soooe  of  the  results  of  Missionary  labour  in  India.  When  wo 
remember  the  greatness  of  the  difficulties  to  be  overcome,  as  well  as  the  feebleness  of  the 
eflbrts  whidi  have  been  made  for  this  great  object,  I  hssitate  not  for  a  moment  to  say 
that  the  retulis  have  ieen  ae  great  ae  emiM  reammaUy  he  expeettd.  But  still,  we  have  to 
osnfess  with  sadness  that  the  work  is  only  beiag  oommeneed.  Though  there  are  541 
Baropean  and  American  Missionariee  in  India,  what  are  these  among  200,000,000  of

heathen  ?  Viewed  geoaraphically,  it  is  one  Missionary  to  eTerj  3000  square  miles.  This 
is  at  the  rate  of  one  Missionary  for  every  400,000  heathens,  heing  about  the  same  as  if 
there  were  only  six  ministers  of  the  Grospel  for  this  great  city  of  London.  Great  provinces 
—kingdoms  in  fact — might  be  ]>ointed  oat  where  no  Missionary  dwells,  and  scores  of  large 
towns  where  the  sound  of  salvation  haa  never  been  heard.  Christians,  we  appeal  to  you 
for  India.  We  need  men.  We  have  been  eloquently  told  by  the  first  speaker  this  morning 
of  the  '* charms"  of  the  life  of  a  minister  in  England;  but  are  there  no  "charma" 
connected  with  Missionary  labour  in  India?  Are  there  no  **  charms"  in  proclaiming  among 
idolaters  the  way  of  salvation  through  Christ?  Are  there  no  **  charms"  in  baptiang  into 
the  Church  of  Christ  those  who  have  been  brought  up  as  heathen  ?  Are  there  no  '*charma" 
in  sitting  with  such  at  the  table  of  the  Lord  ?  Are  there  no  '*  charms  "  in  hearing  Hindoos 
whom  we  have  taught  when  heathens  proclaiming  among  their  countrymen  the  unsearchable 
riches  of  Christ  ?  To  a  true> hearted  Christian  India  has  *'  charmt "  as  a  field  of  laboor. 
If  there  are  young  men  here  who  are  solemnly  considering  where  and  how  they  may  aorve 
their  Saviour  on  earth,  I  would  say  to  such,  come  to  India  and  preach  the  Gospel.  In  this 
work  there  is  scope  for  any  amount  of  energy,  and  a  noble  field  for  the  exercise  of  the 
highest  talents.  We  need  prayer,  much  prayer,  that  God's  Spirit  may  be  abundantly 
poured  forth  on  India,  to  awaken  its  slumbering  dead  millions  to  true  spiritual  life.  And 
we  need,  also,  that  large  Christian  liberality  to  which  a  previous  speaker  has  referred — 
such  liberality  as  a  laiyd  so  highly  favoured  as  this  may  well  pour  into  the  Redeemer'a 
treasury  to  help  to  spread  His  glory  among  the  millions  of  our  fellow-subjects  in  India. 

Christians,  let  the  retuUs  of  the  past  encourage  us  to  greater  zeal  and  devotedness  to  the 
gveat  work  of  bringing  India  to  Christ.  This  undertaking  is  no  foriom  hope.  God's  word 
makes  the  successhil  issue  certain.  Even  now,  standing  upon  our  mount  of  vision,  and 
looking  down  the  course  of  time,  lighted  as  it  is  by  the  sure  word  of  prophecy,  we  may 
see  brighter  and  better  days  for  India.  Her  idols  shall  be  cast  down  and  despised,  yea, 
they  shall  be  utterly  abolished.  Her  idol  temples  shall  be  dismantled,  and  their  cmmbUng 
ruins  be  looked  upon  by  her  own  sons  as  the  relics  of  a  dark  and  dismal  age.  The  iron 
chain  of  caste  shall  be  broken  and  destroyed,  and  India's  people  shall  dwell  as  brethren  on 
earth,  looking  up  to  the  true  God  as  their  Father  in  heaven.  The  vices  which  have  so 
long  stained  the  Hindoo  character  shall  be  obliterated,  and  under  the  purifying  and  elevat- 
ing influences  of  the  Gospel,  India,  Christian  India,  shall  yet  take  no  mean  place  among 
the  nations  of  the  earth ;  and  then,  from  the  spot  where  the  waters  of  the  ocean  dash  op 
against  Cape  Comoiin  in  the  south — on,  and  still  on,  to  the  snow-dad  summits  of  the 
Himalayas  in  the  north,  and  from  the  green  hills  of  Burmah  on  the  east,  to  the  river  Indus 
on  the  west — over  the  length  and  breadth  of  India  shall  rise  one  long  and  loud  song  of 
gladsome  praise  to  Him  who  died  on  Calvary. 

The  Resolution  was  then  put  from  the  chidr,  and  carried. 

The  Rev.  J.  MAKSPBAca,  of  Bradford,  formerly  a  Missionary  of  the  Baptist  Missionary 
Society,  said  : — My  Lord,  I  rise  as  a  comparative  stranger,  and  as  the  representative  of  a 
sister  institution,  to  move  the  following  resolution : — 

**  That  the  Meeting,  while  mteftilly  recognising  the  enconra^ingprogress'of  thcMIsiionGhnrehefi 
generally,  and  especially  in  the  mighty  Empires  of  India  and  China,  cannot  bat  deplore  the  tragical 
events  involved  in  the  political  changes  which  havejoccnrred  in  Madagascar;  it,  nevertheless,  r«t}oioes 
in  the  Just  and  heneflcent  principles  avowed  by  the  present  Sovereign  and  her  Government,  by 
which  religious  ft-eedom  is  secured  for  all  classes  of  the  people ;  and  the  Meeting  records  its  deep  and 

Sateftil  sense  of  the  Divine  favour  in  the  preservation  of  our  Missionaries  in  tune  of  dang^,  and  in 
e  encouraging  state  and  proapects  of  the  Native  Churches.  But  the  Meeting  cannot  suppress  the 
expression  of  grief  and  indignation  at  the  gross  outrages  and  cruel  wrongs  committed  by  Peruvian 
slave  ships  upon  the  defenceless  Islanders  of  the  South  Seas,  many  of  whom  have  been  brought  to 
the  knowledge  and  enjoyment  of  the  Gospel  by  the  labours  of  this  Societv ;  and  the  Meeting  most 
earnestly  appeals  to  Her  Majettv's  Government  to  adopt  every  practicable  means  for  bringing  this 
monstrous  evil  to  an  early  termination,  and  for  procuring,  not  only  the  deliverance  of  the  captives, 
but  also  their  restoration  to  their  homes." 

It  is  perfectly  impossible  for  me  at  this  late  hour  to  do  anything  more  than  just  refer 
very  briefly  to  the  first  topic  presented  for  consideration.  And  here,  whilst  labouring  under 
the  general  disadvantage  of  following  so  earnest  and  eloquent  a  speaker  as  Mr.  Jones,  I 
labour  under  the  particular  disadvantage  of  being  brought  into  such  close  juxtaposition  with 
my  friend  Mr.  Hall  from  the  Presidency  of  Madras ;  for,  as  has  been  already  annonnced 
by  Mr.  Prout,  it  happens  that  I  have  laboured  myself  on  the  Continent  of  India,  so  that  it 
is  India  over  again.  •  But  I  promise  you  that  I  will  be  exceedingly  brief.  The  remarks 
which  I  have  to  make  will  be  chiefly  of  a  corroborative  character ;  it  will  be  my  main  object 
to  confirm  the  testimony  borne  by  Mr.  Hall  wiUi  respect  to  the  present  state  of  things  in 
India.    With  regard  to  the  successes  which  have  accrued  I  should  like  you  just  to  look  for 


FOR  JUNE,  1864.  193 

a  BMHiient  at  the  subject  of  trantUtions.    India  it  not  simply  a  country  of  hmilj  or  tribes, 
It  is  a  eontinent  of  nations.    As  is  well  said,  public  works  there  have  to  do  not  with 
eountries  but  with  provinces ;  roads  have  to  connect  not  cities  but  kingdoms ;  education  has 
|30  be  gtven  not  to  parishes  but  to  nations.    Taking  all  this  into  account,  you  will  be  able  to 
appreciate  the  fact  that  there  is  now  scarcely  a  language  or  dialect  of  India  which  has  not 
been  acquired,  and  into  which  the  Scriptures,  in  whole  or  in  part,  have  not  been  translated. 
And  then  glance  at  the  schools.    Marvellous  are  the  results  which  have  been  realised  in 
connection  with  the  efforts  of  this  and  kindred  sodetiet  in  the  case  of  Missionary  schools, 
in  which  there.i8  given  a  good  education  permeated  throughout  by  the  principles  of  Chris- 
tianity.  One  result  is,  that  there  have  gone  forth  from  our  Bdission  seminaries  thousands  of 
young  men  having,  as  my  friend  Mr.  H^l  stated,  a  most  accurate  knowledge  of  Bible  doc- 
trines and  facts.    It  requires  but  the  vivifying  influence  of  the  Holy  Spirit  to  turn  the 
knowledge  in  the  mind  into  grace  in  the  heart,  and  thus  you  would  have  a  multitude  born 
in  a  day.    I  am  sure  you  would  be  delighted  by  a  visit  to  some  of  our  schools ;  and  improve- 
mento  as  regards  travelling  are  now  advancing  so  rapidly  that  perhaps  the  time  may  come 
when  sonoe  of  yon  vrill  be  able  to  take  a  return  railway  ticket  to  India.    In  that  case  I 
should  advise  you  to  test  the  acquirements  which  have  been  made  at  some  of  our  native 
Mission  schools.    It  is  marvellous  how  the  pupils  think  for  themselves,  instead  of  learning 
everything,  parrot-like,  by  rote.    For  instance,  a  chaplain  vras  passing  from  Agra  to  Cal- 
entta.    On  his  way  he  called  at  a  Mission  station.    The  Missionary  there  was  very  anxious 
that  he  should  pay  a  visit  to  his  school.    "  O,  with  great  pleasure,''  said  the  chaplain,  and 
away  they  went  together.    The  chaplain  was  thus  introduced,  not  to  a  school  in  one  of  the 
great  cities  of  the  Indian  Empire,  but  to  a  purely  country  school.    "Now,''  said  the 
Missionary  to  the  chaplain,  *'  these  little  fellows  have  read  their  Bible,  and  I  should  like 
you  to  catechise  them,  just  to  test  their  acquaintance  with  Bible  history  and  facts."    Well, 
the  chaplain  thought  he  would  put  a  very  simple  question,  and  asked,  '*  Who  was  the  wisest 
man  that  ever  lived  ?''    I  have  put  that  question,  my  Lord,  in  this  country,  and  the  reply 
has  generally  been  '*  Solomon."    The  chaplain,  no  doubt,  thought  the  reply  would  be 
**  Solomon ;"  but  a  little  fellow  in  the  class  very  carefully  and  thoughtfully  answered — 
**  Jesus  Christ,  sir."    The  chaplain  was  immediately  on  the  horns  of  a  dilemma,  and  knew 
not  what  to  do,  and  to  save  himself  rolled  the  burden  of  the  proof  on  the  little  boy 
who  had  given  the  answer.    **  How  do  you  prove  that  ?"  be  said.    *'  O,"  said  the  little 
boy,  *'  I  can  prove  it,  sir."    **  How  F"     *'  Well,  it  is  written,  *  God  gave  not  the  spirit  by 
measure  unto  Him.' "    "  Capital !"  said  the  chaplain,  astonished  at  the  reply.     In  order 
to  test  the  quick-wittedness  and  independent  thought  of  the  pupils  still  further,  he  said — 
**  Can  any  of  you  give  me  another  proof?*'    "  Tea,  sir,"  said  another  little  fellow  in  the 
school,  "  I  can.    It  is  written,  '  No  man  ever  spake  like  this  man ! ' "    And  so,  if  you 
were  to  go  to  any  of  the  large  cities,  such  as  Calcutta,  and  visited  some  of  the  great 
Missionary  institutions  where  a  sound  education  is  given  through  the  medium  of  the 
English  language,  the  Missionaries  would  be  very  glad  to  introduce  you  to  classes  of  fine 
native  youths,  whom  you  would  find  to  speak  English  as  well  as  you  speak  it  yourselves. 
Not  long  ago  an  American  Missionary  arrived  at  Calcutta,  and  he  was  naturally  anxious  to 
see  the  lions  of  the  place,  and  to  learn  what  the  Missionaries  were  doing  there,  in  order 
that  he  might  profit  by  what  he  saw  in  his  intended  operations  in  the  north-west.    He 
went  to  see  one  of  the  schools  under  the  management  of  the  Missionaries,  and  was 
introduced  to  a  class  of  native  youths.     **  Now,"  said  the  Missionary  to  the  new  arrival, 
'*  these  young  men  have  read  almost  everything ;  they  think  for  themselves,  and  I  should 
like  you  to  test  their  general  knowledge."    '*  Well,"  said  the  Missionary  fresh  from  the 
United  States,  '*  can  any  of  you  young  men  tell  me  how  many  forms  of  government 
there  are  in  the  world  ?"    *'  Yes,"  said  one  of  the  young  men  very  quietly,  **  I  can, 
sir ;  there  are  several."    ''  Will  you  please  to  name  them."    ''  Well,  sir,  there  is  the 
limited  monarchy."    "Yes."    "And  there  is  the  absolute  despotism."    "Yes."    "And 
there  is  the  republican  form."    "  Yes,  yes,  there  is.    And  pray  under  which  form  would 
you  like  to  live  ?"    "  Under  the  limited  monarchy,  sir."    "  But  how  so,  how  so  ?    You 
know  there  is   a  republican  form  of  government  in  America,  and  under  that  repub- 
lican form  you  can  go  where  you  like,  and  say  what  you  like,  and  think  what  you 
like,  and  write  what  you  like.    Why  not  live  under  such  a  free  government  as  that  ?" 
"  Thank  you,  sir,  I  should  prefer  after  all  the  limited  monarchy."     '*  Well,  but  now,  how  so, 
how  so  ?    When  you  have  all  these  privUeges,  social,  political,  and  religious,  why  not  prefer 
such  a  free  government  as  that  ?"    "Well,  sir,  I  prefer  the  limited  monarchy,  and  I  will  tell 
you  why ;  I  know  that  with  all  the  boasted  freedom  under  that  republican  form,  there  are 
three  millions  of  slaves  who  could  not  exist  under  such  a  limited  monarchy  as  that  of  Great 
Britain.^'    Now  that  is  just  a  simple  illustration  of  the  way  in  which  our  Missionary  students

put  hefeve  yon  in  •eonnecHon  aisth  etootsstios.  My  ear  did  not  clearly  oatch  the  ttatktka  of 
tbe  Qiuedhes  in  tbe  Report,  and  I  do  net  tananr  wiiether  or  not  the  nuasbers  wnte  given

atatisties  and  conpaie  tbe  resnlts  realised  with  the  amonnt  of  effort  put  faxA,  yon  are 
utterly  and  abaolntely  diaconeaged  by  tiM  paneity  of  the  resnlts.  Let  ase  say,  then,  with 
regard  to  India,  as  a  chM  to  nmeh  of  mystery  in  the  past,  and  as  a  guiding  star  of 
hope  for  the  futoro^-^at  jon  must  not  eatimate  our  euoeesaes  in  the  Bast  by  the  recorded 
nomlber  of  individual  conversions,  and  for  this  reason,  that  there  are  muHitndes  scattered 
up  and  down  the  length  and  breadtlh  of  t^  land  who  are  the  secret  disciptes  of  the 
Lord  Jeans,  but  who  have  not  the  moral  courage  to  eome  out  asid  declare  themaalvea 
to  be  on  the  Lord's  aide.  Ton  have  only  to  eonsider  the  grievances,  the  disahUiliea 
to  which  onr  native  oonvet^  are  swhyuot,  to  understand  <his.  80  soon  as  a  mm

in  a-distant  part  of  thooonntiy,  was  ao  «vei<eoae  by  a  aense  of  her  destitndon  as  a  widow,

loss,  <he  ftsanolal  loss,  whieh  many  of  our  converts  have  anstoined.  I  oonld  name  one  who 
lost  a  thovsand  nipeea,  onether  who  lost  ten  tbowaand,  another  who  knt  one  handrad

discouraged  at  tke  postponenaeni  to  an  indefiaite  pariod  of  the  promiiad  miUenium.    We 
cannot,  therefore,  be  too  much  impressed  with  the  faot  that  what  ha«  already  been  realizad 
is  simply  preparatory ;  we  cannot  ha  too  miich  inpresaed  with  the  foct  that  the  abaeoce  of 
moral  courage  is  one  great  prerentive  to  any  ge&eral  movement  in  favour  of  Ghriatianity. 
As  Mr.  Hall  says,  the  character  of  the  people  is  such,  that  they  are  moved  not  singly  but 
in  maaaea,  not  iodividnally  but  collectively ;  meanwhile  they  are  passing  through  grand 
tranaforxnative  processes  of  thought  and  feeling,  all  ripening  for  a  grand  coasiunmation, 
the  like  of  which  the  Christian   Church  hath  never  seen.     Is  it  not  one  of  the  moat 
gloriooa  predictions  of  unfnlfilled  prophecy,  that  *'  a  nation  shall  be  bom  in  a  day  ?"  and 
may  we  not  expect  some  sudden  and  instantaneons  upsprioging  of  India's  kindreds  and 
tribes,  at  some  divinely-communicated  impulse  for  the  avowal  of  the  truth  ?     People  alter 
people  ahall  be  made  willing  in  that  day  of  Grod's  power ;  and  when  all  the  elementa  of 
thia  atupendoua  change  shall  be  folly  elaborated  and  made  ready,  then,  as  at  the  first,  the 
Almighty  shall  issue  the  decree,  *'  Let  there  be  light,"  and  myriads  shall  emerge  almost 
with  a  twilight  from  darkneu  into  day.    India  shall  supply  its  own  illustration  of  what  we 
may  expect  to  transpire  at  the  appointed  time  of  her  full  and  final  evangelization.    Look  at 
the  rapid  development  of  vegetable  life  at  one  season  of  the  year.    During  certain  months, 
owing  to  the  tropical  heat  of  the  snn,  and  the  withering  breath  of  the  simoom*  the  earth  is 
soorohed  into  utter  barrenness,  so  that  soaisely  a  green  blade  appeara  on  its  chafed  and 
indurated  soil ;  but  no  sooner  do  the  periodic  rains  descend,  in  their  tropical  effusion,  than» 
behold !  on  every  hand  a  sudden  outburst  of  fertility,  and  the  spectacle  of  naked  leafless 
desolation  quickly  exchanged  for  that  of  teeming  valleys  and  smiling  plains.    So,  when  the 
windows  of  heaven  shall  be  opened,  and  the  showers  of  blessing  shall  descend  in  copioua 
streama  of  grace,  these  dreary  moral  wastes  shall  forthwith  he  mantled  with  verdure,  and  the 
apparently  dormant  or  dead  seeds  of  truth  be  transmuted  as,  by  miracle,  into  the  buds  and 
blossoms  of  faith,  and  the  waving  harvests  of  righteousness  and  peace.     Yea,  such  shall  be 
the  rapidity  of  growth,  that  all  the  ordinary  processes  of  husbandry  shall  be  set  aside,  and, 
in  accordance  with  the  declaration  of  the  inspired  Word,  "  The  reaper  shall  overtake  the 
ploughman,  and  he  that  gatbereth  the  grapes  him  that  soweth  the  seed."    What  have  we 
to  do  in  the  de^wlopment  and  evolution  of  this  mighty  drama  in  the  history  of  the  world's 
redemption  ?    It  is  indicated  to  us  in  the  parting  command  of  our  ascending  Lord,  *'.6o  ye 
into  aU  the  world  and  preach  the  Gospel  to  every  creature;"  and  inumuch  as  your  res- 
ponsibility is  proportionate  to  your  means  of  giving  or  of  going,  then,  as  my  final  appeal* 
"  Whatsoever  your  hands  find  to  do^  do  it  with  your  might."    And  desist  not  from  the 
glorious  emprise  till  the  knowledge  of  the  Lord  shall  cover  every  continent  of  earth  and 
every  islet  of  ocean,  as  the  waters  cover  the  sea ;  till  from  the  equator  to  the  poles,  and 
every  part  of  this  world's  vast  circumference,  prayer  shall  be  made  to  Him  continuaUy, 
and  daily  shall  He  be  praised ;  till  the  morning  **  orisons  of  the  Eaat  shall  blend  with  the- 
evening  anthems  of  the  West,  and  the  matin  song  of  the  West  with  the  glowing  vespers  of 
the  East,"  and  o'er  the  circling  globe,  in  one  continuous  and  commingling  aweil, 

**  One  song  employ  aU  nations,  and  all  evy, 
<  Worthy  the  Lamb,  for  he  was  slain  for  us  ;*  .  .^

The  Rbv.  W.  Knibb  Lbb,  Missionary  from  Amoy,  in  seconding  the  Resolution,  said. 
There  was  a  time,  and  that  not  many  years  ago,  when  a  Missionary  returning  from  China 
could  only  speak  of  discouragementa  and  difficulties.  The  dark  picture  which  be  gave  of 
four  hundred  millions  of  fellow-creatures  in  the  valley  of  the  shadow  of  death  was  brightened 
only  by  the  light  of  his  own  feith  in  the  promises  of  God.  But  to-day  I  stand  here  to  tell  of 
success  even  in  China.  Fifty  years  ago  Dr.  Morrison  was  working  there  alone — not  doing 
the  work  of  an  evangelist,  but  seeking  to  clear  away  obstructions,  and  to  lay,  broad  and 
deep,  the  foundations  of  that  spiritual  structure  which  is  now  rising  to  gladden  our  eyes 
in  that  distant  land.  Other  noble  and  heroic  Missionaries  were  labouring  in  the  islanda 
of  the  Eastern  Archipelago,  at  Singapore,  and  Malacca,  preparing  the  fallow  ground,  and 
easting  therein  the  precious  seed.  God  gave  them  the  tears  of  the  sower,  but  not  the  joy  of 
the  reaper.  Well,  my  Lord,  there  comes  a  time  when  the  sower  and  the  reaper  may  rejoice 
together,  when  the  shout  of  harvest  home  goes  up  from  the  field  of  labour  on  earth  and  is 
echoed  by  the  sainted  ones  who  rest  around  the  throne  of  God.  Those  Mission  fields, 
deserted  by  this  Society,  are  now  bearing  fruit.  About  fife  years  ago  a  native  Chinese 
Misnonary  was  sent  down  firom  one  of  the  Presbyterian  Mission  Churches  in  the  neighbour- 


196  MISSIONARY  MAGAZINE 

hood  of  Amoj  to  work  at  Singapore.  The  other  day,  I  had  the  pleasure  of  meeting  with  a 
Christian  Brother  from  that  place,  a  Chinese  who  has  nerer  seen  the  land  of  his  fathers, 
and  who  was  edacated  in  the  school  of  my  honoured  colleague,  the  Rev.  Alexander 
Stronaeh,  then  of  Singapore,  now  of  Amoy ;  and  that  Christian  Brother  tells  me  that  at 
Singapore  there  are  nearly  one  hundred  couTerts  in  present  fellowship  with  the  Church- 
Furthermore,  from  that  Church  there  has  gone  forth  a  Chinese  Missionary  (and  I  delight 
to  hear  and  to  tell  of  these  natiTC  Missionaries),  to  Batavia,  the  scene  many  years  of  Med- 
hurst's  early  labours. 

About  twenty  years  ago  our  Missions  in  China  began.  Some  of  our  friends  who  are  scepticml 
as  to  the  success  of  Christianity  there,  must  distinguish  between  Missions  to  the  Chinese 
and  Missions  to  China,  and  should  remember  that  the  latter  is  but  just  out  of  its  teens,  and 
is,  in  fact,  the  most  juvenile  of  all  modern  Missions.  Then,  when  after  the  first  war  with 
England,  our  Missionaries  gained  a  standing-place  in  China  itself,  the  heathenism  of  that 
great  country  was  not  to  be  conquered  at  a  blow ;  local  dialects  had  to  be  acquired,  and  the 
Scriptures  to  be  re-translated.  There  was  more  or  less  of  enmity  on  the  part  of  the  people, 
and  the  authorities  were  bitterly  hostile  to  us.  When  I  first  went  out  to  Amoy,  great 
difilculties  were  encountered  whenever  we  sought  to  extend  our  labours  to  a  distance  from 
the  open  port.  Barriers  rose  up  on  every  side.  We  could  go  to  a  city  and  preach,  but  we 
generally  found  a  number  of  dirty  Chinese  soldiers  at  our  heels,  who  were  professedly  sent 
to  guard  us,  but  really  were  so  many  spies.  Did  we  seek  to  rent  a  house  in  the  interior  for 
purposes  of  Divine  worship,  the  landlord  who  receive4  us  as  tenants  was  liable  to  be  cast 
into  prison,  and,  in  one  instance  at  least,  had  to  endure  the  filth  and  starvation  of  a  Chinese 
gaol  for  years. 

We  can  now  tell  of  a  change  for  the  better,  so  far  as  our  facilities  for  extended  Missionary 
operations  are  concerned,  and  once  more  we  owe  it  to  the  might  of  this  country,  not  always 
very  righteously  put  forth.  The  fact  is,  that  in  our  dealings  with  the  Chinese  we  hare 
from  the  first  depended  very  much  upon  the  argument  of  force,  and  very  little  upon  the 
force  of  argument.  We  have  shown  them  that  we  have  better  soldiers  than  they  haTe, 
that  our  Armstrong  artillery  is  an  improvement  on  their  old  guns,  cast  hundreds  of  years  ago, 
and  that  our  Enfield  rifles  are  superior  to  their  arrows  and  matchlocks;  but  they  love  us 
none  the  better  for  that ;  they  receive  us  with  no  more  favour  because  we  have  conquered 
them.  If  by  our  country's  might  we  have  been  enabled  to  climb  the  otherwise  inaccessible 
mountain  side,  on  which  the  strong  fortress  of  Chinese  heathenism  is  built,  let  us  remember 
that  our  work  as  Christians,  and  as  Christian  Missionaries,  begins  where  that  of  the  warrior 
and  the  politician  ends.  And  not  only  so,  but  we  have  to  undo  much  of  their  work  before 
we  can  begin  our  own.  He  who  comes  not  in  by  the  door,  but  climbs  over  a  part  of  the 
wall  which  has  been  broken  down  by  the  thief  who  went  before  him,  is  very  likely  to  be 
taken  for  a  thief  himself,  and  will  have  some  difficulty  in  proving  that  he  comes  with  honest 
and  pure  intentions.  Now  that  is  just  our  difficulty  with  regard  to  the  Chinese.  We  admit  no 
opinm^moker  to  Church-fellowship,  and  yet  it  is  difficult  to  convince  the  mass  of  the  people 
that  Christian  Missionaries  have  no  interest  in  the  opium  trade.  We  have  protested  against  the 
Coolie  traffic  ;  and  I  am  reminded  by  the  Resolution  in  my  hand  of  years  gone  by  in  the  history 
of  China,  when  atrocities  equal  to  any  you  have  recently  heard  of  in  the  South  Seas  were  perpe- 
trated among  the  natives  of  the  East.  These,  happily,  are  things  of  the  past ;  British  merchants 
long  ago  washed  their  hands  of  the  traffic,  when  they  saw  to  what  iniquities  it  was  leading 
them.  But  labour  was  wanted  for  Havannah  and  elsewhere,  and  the  trade  was  continued  in 
the  South  of  China  by  unscrupulous  agents  of  the  Spanish  Government.  There  was  a  time, 
not  more  than  three  years  ago,  when  members  of  my  own  household  durst  not  wander 
from  the  house  after  nightfall ;  when  the  traveller  from  village  to  village,  after  sundown, 
was  often  kidnapped  and  carried  ofiT  to  some  foreign  vessel  lying  at  anchor  miles  from  the 
shore.  The  Chinese  authorities  at  length  adopted  the  most  stringent  measures  to  put  an 
end  to  the  business ;  and  this  was  the  crowning  tragedy.  A  cross  was  placed  in  the  streets 
of  Amoy,  and  a  poor  wretch,  who  had  been  employed  by  foreigners,  was  nailed  quiver- 
ing to  that  cross,  and  hung  out  in  the  burning  sun  to  die.  Well,  these  things  have  passed 
away,  and  the  trade  is  now  conducted  on  more  systematic  principles  by  agents  of  the 
British  Colonial  Government.  But  the  memories  of  such  scenes  remain.  There  are 
still  mothers  among  us  there  whose  sons  have  been  decoyed  away  from  them ;  there  are 
wives  whose  husbands  shall  come  back  no  more ;  there  is  the  cry  of  the  orphan  for  the 
father  who  has  died  in  the  polluted  hold  of  a  Coohe  ship,  or  whose  bones  are  bleaching 
in  the  guano  pits  of  South  America.  All  these  things  have  left  open  festering  wounds, 
which  shrink  even  from  the  gentle  touch  of  Christian  sympathy  and  love. 

We  have,  however,  a  treaty,  by  which  we  are  allowed  to  travel  throughout  the  empire. 
Do  not  expect  that  we  shall  do  anything  of  the  kind  just  yet.    Do  not  expect  that,  while 


FOB  JUNE,  1864.  197 

theoombined  countries  of  Protestant  Christendom  send  us  no  more  than  100  Missionaries  to 
400,000,000  of  Chinese,  we  can  preach  the  Gospel  to  them  all,  or  even  itinerate  OTer 
5,000.000  of  square  miles.  There  are  vast  districts  of  the  country  disturbed  by  war,  which 
at  the  present  time  we  cannot  visit.  I  suspect  that  the  Taepings,  who  were  disposed  to  be 
friendly  at  first,  do  not  love  us  very  much  now.  It  would  not  be  very  good  policy  to  go 
into  their  midst.  We  have  "  meddled  "  in  that  matter,  and  I  am  afraid  we  have  *' muddled" 
it.  What  will  be  the  end  of  our  present  political  intervention  in  China  no  mortal  man  can 
uy.  I  have  never  yet  met  with  an  intelligent  Chinaman  who  had  faith  in  the  continuance 
lor  many  years  of  the  present  dynasty.  The  poor  man  is  sick  because  we  ourselves  have 
belaboured  him  sore,  and  we  are  now  trying  to  make  him  healthy  and  strong  again.  I  do 
not  think  we  shall  succeed.  For  all  this  I  am  no  apologist  for  the  Taepings.  1  cannot 
think  that  the  religion  they  profess  is  the  leaven  with  which  China  is  to  be  regenerated.  We 
shall  find  a  false  form  of  Christianity  is  harder  to  deal  with  than  unmitigated  heathenism. 
Bnt  there  is  another  way  in  which  you  may  look  at  this  matter.  Years  ago  there  was  a 
rebellion  at  Amoy,  and  after  it  a  revival  in  the  Church.  These  political  commotions  are 
elements  of  change ;  they  are  working  upon  the  minds  of  the  people.  Old  beliefs  and 
habits  of  thought  that  have  been  rotting  at  their  anchorage  for  centuries,  are  now  drifting 
sway,  the  people  know  not  whither.  China,  asleep  for  ages,  is  now  awake,  looking  for 
something,  expecting  something,  she  scarce  knows  what.  God  is  chastising  that  people, 
I  hope  for  their  good.  If  the  tempest  of  His  wrath  sweep  over  the  land,  it  may  drive  away 
the  dark  clouds  of  superstition  that  hang  heavy  over  the  valleys  of  the  slain  ;  and  when 
the  storm  is  over,  and  the  light  of  His  truth  is  shining  upon  the  dry  bones,  the  soft,  gentle 
brea&  of  His  Spirit  may  pass  over  them,  and  they  shall  rise  and  stand  upon  their  feet 
sn  exceeding  great  army. 

Bot  to  speak  more  directly  of  Missionary  work.  lAt  Peking  itself  there  is  the  beginning 
of  a  Christian  Church.  The  Report  has  told  us  of  ten  Missionaries  labouring  there.  Why, 
to  my  certain  knowledge,  there  are  thirteen,  for  I  find  that  three  of  those  Missionaries  have 
their  wives  with  them.  Let  me  tell  you  that  the  wife  of  a  Missionary  can  do  as  great  a 
work  in  China  as  the  Missionary  himself.  She  can  gather  around  her  the  poor  degraded 
females  of  that  land,  and  can  speak  to  them  of  God's  truth.  I  should  like  to  take  yon  to  a 
scene  in  one  of  our  Mission  homes  at  Amoy,  where  the  noble  wife  of  a  Missionary — she 
^nld  not  like  me  to  repeat  her  name  on  this  occasion — is  doing  a  great  work,  gathering 
aronnd  her  a  number  of  Chinese  females,  reading  the  Word  of  God  to  them,  and  calling 
upon  them  to  kneel  down  with  her  in  prayer.  My  Lord,  I  have  often  listened  to  the  prayers 
of  those  Christian  women,  and  I  can  testify  to  their  fervency  and  simple  faith.  Some 
vould  have  us  believe  that  the  Chinese  have  no  hearts.  Well,  I  know  that  the  devil  has 
encased  the  hearts  of  that  people  in  all  manner  of  pride  and  superstition,  but  the  hearts 
ue  there  for  all  that,  and  the  grace  of  God  can  fill  them  with  tender  and  generous  emotions. 
Tell  me  that  the  Chinese  cannot  feel !  I  saw  the  wife  of  a  Missionary  on  her  death-bed,  and 
i^ive  Christian  women  kneeling  around  that  bed ;  I  heard  their  prayers,  stifled  by  sobs 
^  |rief,  ascend  to  heaven,  that  theur  friend  and  teacher  might  be  restored  to  life.  Tell 
BM  that  the  Chinese  cannot  feel  1  Do  you  see  that  funeral  procession  winding  around  the 
^  of  the  hills,  until  it  reaches  the  burial  place  of  the  dead.  A  Missionary  is  being  carried 
^  his  long  home,  and  there  follow  him,  not  only  his  brethren  and  his  countrymen,  but 
hundreds  of  Christian  Chinese,  clothed  in  their  mourning  robes  of  sackcloth  and  white, 
Assembled  to  express  their  esteem  and  affection  for  the  teacher  whom  God  has  called  away 
^his  rest.    If  they  love  the  labourer  for  his  work's  sake,  they  love  the  Master  too. 

I  cannot  take  you  to  Hankow,  a  city  which  the  Chinese  call  the  heart  of  the  empire,  and 
^bich  it  perhaps  of  more  importance  than  Peking  itself,  where  we  have  only  one  Missionary. 
1  hope  he  wiU  be  reinforced  before  long ;  nor  to  Shanghae,  where  there  is  still  a  paucity  of 
Uboorers,  nor  to  Hong  Kong,  where  Dr.  Legge  is  still  alone.  I  come  to  Amoy,  where  with 
boDonred  brethren  still  in  the  field,  I  have  been  labouring  for  some  years.  What,  in  brief, 
^  the  result  of  the  efforts  of  the  Missionaries  there  ?  I  speak  not  of  our  Society  alone,  for 
j^ben  we  get  into  the  Mission  field  we  forget  our  sectarianism  ;  we  forget  that  we  are  Pres- 
I^Tterians,  Independents,  or  Baptists,  and  only  remember  that  we  are  all  soldiers  of  one  army, 
^^^  few  in  number,  marching  on  to  battle,  and,  as  we  believe,  to  victory,  under  the  banner 
w  "  the  Captain  of  our  salvation." 

Now  what  has  been  done  in  Amoy  ?  There  are  830  communicants  in  fellowship  with 
fbe  Church  in  that  city  and  neighbourhood.  There  are  five  organized  Christian  Churches 
^  the  city  itself,  and  there  are  seventeen  Mission  stations  in  the  country  round  about, 
^tbin  an  area  of  fifty  miles  radius.  These  are  lights  upon  the  scattered  mountain  tops, 
that  in  God's  good  time  shall  illuminate  all  the  valleys  beneath.  And  then  we  have  been 
seeking  to  train  up  a  native  agency.    Do  not  think  that  we  are  behind  India  in  that

respect.  There  is  no  country  in  the  world  where  there  is  better  raw  material  for  making 
preachers  than  in  China.  There  a  man  no  sooner  gets  hold  of  the  knowledge  of  the  truth 
himself  than  he  goes  forth  to  publish  it,  and  I  think  I  am  right  in  saying  that  fully  half  of 
o«r  country  stations  have  been  planted,  not  through  the  preaching  of  the  Gospel  by 
Missionaries  themselves,  but  have  resulted  from  the  spontaneous  efforts  of  native  Chriatians. 
They  go  forth  with  burning  love  to  God  in  their  hearts,  and  with  words  of  thrilling 
eloquence  on  their  tongues,  to  tell  their  fellow-countrymen  of  the  Saviour  they  themselves 
have  found.  Since  I  left  Amoy,  our  American  brethren  there  have  ordained  two  native 
pastors,  and  these  men  are  supported  entirely  by  the  contributions  of  the  native  Churche* 
over  which  tliey  are  placed.  They  receive  liberal  salaries.  I  oould  Wish  that  all  my 
ministerial  brethren  at  home  were  as  well  off  as  these  Chinese  pastors.  We  ourselves 
have  had  twelve  young  men  under  inetruction  in  Amoy,  and  they  are  now  occupying 
positions  of  great  usefulness  in  the  country  round  about,  gathering  around  them  little  com- 
panies of  believers.  Our  work  there  is  now  beoeming  more  that  of  the  bishop  than  the 
pastor.  I  believe  after  all  that  the  Missionary  is  the  true  bishop.  We  have  now  not  only 
to  preach,  but  to  oversee  Churches  already  planted.  In  our  visits  to  these  country  stations 
the  native  preacher  comes  to  us  with  difficulties  which  he  has  met  with  in  his  reading  of 
the  Scriptures :  we  have  to  explain  them.  We  have  also  to  examine  candtdatea  for  Chris- 
tian baptism,  and  to  administer  the  ordinances  of  religion.  We  want  thus  not  only  native 
agents,  but  more  agents  from  our  own  country.  We  have  to  evangelize  China  by  preaching, 
and  we  must  have  living  men  to  tell  the  Chinese  the  way  of  salvation.  Do  not  think  that 
when  you  have  printed  a  tract  and  distributed  it,  or  put  into  circulation  Bibles  and  Testa- 
ments, that  yea  have  done  the  work.  There  is  a  power  in  the  tones  of  the  human  yxnce, 
when  it  comes  from  a  heart  behind  it  filled  with  the  love  of  God,  that  touches  the  hearts 
of  men  as  nothing  else  can  do.  I  rejoice  that  your  Missionaries  in  China  are  preaching 
Missionaries.  I  know  the  great  need  which  exists  for  something  besides  preaching  in  Indfia : 
I  know  that  a  great  deal  has  to  be  done  there  by  means  of  education.  But  the  Chinese 
are  an  educated  peaple  ;  in  their  case  we  have  not  ts  wait  for  the  work  of  schools.  They 
know  sufficient  to  understand  the  Word  of  God,  as  we  go  out  with  an  open  Bible  in  o«tr 
hands,  and  preach  to  them  of  Christ. 

I  could  tell  you,  did  time  permit,  of  the  suffierings  of  our  native  Christians.  It  has  been 
said,  on  high  authority,  that  the  Chinese  are  not  prepared  to  make  sacrifices  for  religion. 
All  I  can  say  in  answer  to  that  is,  that  they  do.  There  was  a  noble  man  in  the  south  of 
China,  connected  with  Dr.  Legge's  Church,  who  preached  the  Gospel  to  his  fellow-country 
men,  and  God  gave  him  some  fifty  souls  as  his  hire.  That  man  was  called  upon  by  the 
heathen  to  give  up  Christ  or  die.  He  said,  ^  I  can  die,  but  I  cannot  forsake  Christ." 
They  plunged  a  knife  into  his  heart,  and  threw  his  body  into  the  stream.  I  have  known 
myself  of  many  cases  in  which  these  native  Christians  have  shown  themselves  willing  to  be 
east  into  prison,  and  to  soffsr  the  loss  of  aU  things,  rather  than  give  up  their  religion,  and 
have  deemed  it  their  highest  glory  to  make  sacrifices  for  Him  who  gave  Himself  a  sacrifice 
for  them. 

I  am  glad  to  be  aUe  to  say  that  our  plenipotentiary  at  Peking  is  new  in  possession  ef 
laots,  of  which  he  was  not  informed  when  he  wrote  some  time  ago  a  despatch  on  this 
subject  to  Esfl  RusselL  A  Missionary  Brother  tnm  Amoy,  the  Rev.  W.  C.  Bums,  has 
recently  gone  to  Peking,  and,  at  Sir  Frederick  Bruce's  own  request  has  laid  before  him  a 
detailed  account  of  the  persecutions  of  our  native  Christians.  We  hope  to  get  from  the 
Chinese  Government  what  the  Roman  Catholics  obtuned  long  ago  at  the  instance  of  the 
french  Ambassador,  an  imperial  edict,  securing  toleration  to  Chinese  professing  the  Chris- 
tian faith.  I  do  not  believe  that  Christianity  is  to  be  nursed  in  the  lap  of  the  civil 
power:  you  will  have  but  a  weak  pony  bantling  if  there  be  anything  of  that  kind.  No  ! 
Christianity  mast  sund  alone,  ay,  and  run  alone,  amid  the  vrildest  blasts  of  persectttien.  I 
do  not  ask  that  the  strong  hand  of  England  should  strike  down  the  persecutor ;  but  I  do 
ask  that>  as  a  nation,  we  shouM  not  be  ashamed  of  our  Christianity  in  the  sight  of  the 
heathen.  I  da  say  it  is  a  nMt  thing  for  a  great  country  like  this  to  make  its  voice  heard, 
even  to  the  ends  of  the  earth,  pleading  for  liberty  to  the  captive,  and  for  relief  to  the 
persecuted.  I  cannot  say  more  at  this  late  hour ;  but  let  me  assure  you  that  the  work  of 
Christian  Missions  in  China  is  advancing.  Amid  many  hindrances  the  prospeet  was  never 
so  bright  as  now.  Let  the  Church  be  assured  of  this.  China  shall  be  won  for  Christ.  A 
day  shall  oome,  may  Gred  hasten  it  I  wbea  her  myriad  sons  and  daughters  shall  gather 
round  the  feet  of  our  Immanuel,  and  acknowledge  Him  as  Lord  of  all. 

The  Knv.  J.  B.  (  )wen  in  supporting  the  resolution  said, — At  this  late  hour,  ladies  and 
gentlemsB,  I  shall  net  detain  you  long.  I  must  confess  that  I  never  attended  a  missionary 
anniversary  in  any  part  of  Great  Britain  at  which  I  experienced  more  enjoyment  than  I  have

done  to-Ui^  and  I  feel  that  it  would  indeed  be  to  gild  refined  gold  to  add  anffcbiog  to  the 
ai^meDts  in  favour  of  increesed  misiionary  efforte  which  have  been  addressed  to  you  to-day. 
I  will,  therefore,  merely  indicate  whit  I  intended  to  say,  if  there  were  sufficient  time.  It 
has  occurred  to  my  mind,  in  conn  vcit  u  with  the  comparatively  small  amount  of  pragreas  to 
which  alluftion  hat  been  m^de  ^}  t^^recediug  ^ijeakers,  that  perhaps  we  who  apeak  on  these 
occasions  do  not  sufficient!  v  lay  hb/ore  our  Christian  auditory  the  human  causes  which  have 
led  to  these  strictly  hum&n  results.  There  is,  I  woald  observe,  a  remankable  parallel 
between  Ihe  progress  of  Chriatianity  generally  in  India,  and  the  progress  of  Protestantism  in 
Ireland;  that  is,  in  both  countries  t^  operation  of  the  same'Oauscs  has  led  to  the  same 
results.  There  is  in  Ireland,  as  in  India,  a  twofold  authority.  There  is  a  double  authority 
whtck  it  alwaya  an  incosvenieace.  A  divided  authority  always  leads  to  m  divided  aUegianee ; 
a  divided  allegiance  leads  to  disaffection ;  disafftection  to  a  chronic  phase  of  rebellion ;  and  in 
India,  «8  in  Ireland,  all  this  has  been  very  dangerons  to  the  public  interetft.  Again,  there 
is  the  indireet  ^eraeention  of  oeirverts  in  India, through  the  Ckyvemment  system  df  edvettien 
and  the  GovemmeBt  patronage  of  Idolatry.  ITl  had  time  to  work  this  out  I  might  lAmw 
you  that  the  same  eause  wbidh  accotrats  for  the  slow  progress  of  Protestantism  In  Irebmd, 
aver  wiliieh  all  Protestants  mourn,  accounts,  also,  for  tire  comparatively  slow  progress  cf  Mis- 
sioBS  fa  India.  But  the  conclosion  to  be  founded  on  these  facts  is,  not  that  we  «heti3d  be 
jvstified  in  giving  up  Ireland  to  Romanism,  m  India  to  Brafaminism,  bnt  that  in  both  vre 
shouMl  eontinne  to  use  those  means  which,  under  the  blessing  of  God,  will  prove  the  means 
of  planting  far  and  wide  the  standard  of  the  Cross.  No  Christian  man  ever  looks  -open 
any  part  of  the  world  as  a  forlorn  hope.  l%ere  is  an  heroic  gallantry  comieeted  wHh  the 
Ckrialian  Mth  wbioh  leads  men,  notwithstanding  all  difReidties  which  present  "tiiemsdlves, 
to  go  forth  tnifting  in  their  Leader  and  believing  in  tiie  finid  success  of  Bis  eanse.  In 
this  eai«  we  do  not  look  for  the  aid  of  die  Government.  It  was  said  of  our  •vtotories  in  the 
Crimaa  that  they  were  a<9t{eved  by  the  non-commissioned.  So  I  say  let  pritate  Christians 
determiae  to  carry  on  their  work  without  looking  for  any  assistance  from  those  wlio  are 
hi  authority ;  and  if  they  do  but  carry  it  on  in  a  proper  spirit  and  in  a  proper  manner, 
Cfaoy  may  depend  upon  H  that  He  before  whom  the  walls  of  Sabastopol,  like  these  of 
Jericho,  Ml  down,  will,  in  His  own  good  time,  give  them  the  Drahminism  of  Indhi  for  a 
spoil,  and  the  Romanism  of  Ireland  for  a  prey. 

The  Resolution  was  then  put  and  carried. 

The  collection  having  been  afterwards  made— 

The  Rev.  Enoch  Millor,  M.A./of  Liverpool,  proposed,  without  making  any  xemarkt,  in 
consequence  of  the  lateness  of  the  hour,  the  following  Resolution : — 

**That  the  Hon.  Abtbdb  KivKjaan.  H.P.,  be  the  Treasurer;  that  the  Rev.  Dr.  Tidmah  be  the 
Foreiffn  Secrstary,  and  the  Rer.  Ebbkxsbs  Pjkodt  be  the  Home  SeoreUry,  for  the  ensuing  year;  that 
the  Directors  who  are  eligible  be  reappoiBted,  and  that  the  gentlemen  whose  names  have  been 
transmitted  by  their  respective  Anxlliarias,  and  approved  by  the  aggregate  Meeting  of  Delegates, 
be  chosen  to  fill  up  the  places  of  those  who  retire*  and  that  the  Directors  have  power  to  fill  up  any 
'B  that  3iay  occur." 


The  RsT.  Alixandbr  Thomsok,  M.A.»  of  Maaeheiter,  after  observing  tlut  when  Mr, 
licibwr  liad  declined  to  make  a  speech  he  should  certainly  not  doso,  said : — I  must  say,  how- 
Of  er,  that  I  never  attended  a  Missionary  Meeting  at  which  my  faith  in  the  ultimate  snosess  of 
the  Missionary  enterprise,  which  never  was  weidc,  was  more  strengthened  than  it  has  been  on 
this  occasion.  I  folly  concur  in  the  declanttion  of  the  admirable  Report  wbioh  was  read 
this  morning,  that  we  have  no  reason  for  complaint  or  dissatisfaction.  We  have  but  to 
listen  to  the  statement  of  such  telling  fkcts  as  have  been  brought  before  us  to-day  by  Mis- 
sionaries from  foreign  lands,  to  see  how  little  foundation  there  is  for  the  opinion  of  those 
who  tell  us  that  Christianity  is  becoming  effiete,  that  the  old  tree  is  unsound  at  the  root, 
and  that  its  vital  sap  is  decaying.  When  we  see  it  looking  so  broad  and  umbrageous,  and 
bringing  forth  such  noble  fruits,  we  feel  that  it  shall  assuredly  remain. 

The  Retolntion  was  then  pnt  and  oarried. 

Sni  Fa^usaia  Cnoaaur ,  Bart.,  M.P.,  said, — Ladies  and  gentlemen,  it  was  my  lot  for  many 
ftmn  lo  sit  side  by  side  with  your  noble  Chairman  in  the  House  of  Commons,  and  no  one 
was  more  delighted  than  I  vras  to  hear  of  the  bononr  which  the  Queen  conferred  upon  him 
in  raising  him  to  the  House  of  Lords ;  but  I  Tenture  to  say  that  neither  in  the  House  of 
Lords  nor  in  the  House  of  Commons  did  he  ever  perform  a  tnore  honourable  action  than  in 
presiding  over  this  important  meeting.    I  have  great  pleasure  in  moving — 

'*That  the  very  cordial  thanks  of  this  Keethig  be  presented  to  the  Right  Hon.  Lobd  £BoaT,for  his 
kindness  In  presiding  on  the  present  occasion  and  o<mdaetiog  the  bustness  of  the  day.** 


200  MISSIONARY  MAGAZINE   FOR  JUNE,    1864. 

HiNRT  Wright,  Eso.,  in  seconding  the  Resolution  said,— I  am  sure,  mv  friends,  yoa 
will  unanimously  express  your  gratification  at  having  seen  the  noble  Lord  in  the  chair  this 
day,  for  this  reason  among  others,  that  his  Lordship  has  been  engaged,  for  a  long  time,  io 
a  very  difficult  work,  in  which  we  wish  him  most  heartily  all  possible  success.  Our  sym- 
pathies haye  gathered  around  him  for  many  a  day,  and  now  that  he  has  come  amongst  us 
and  expressed  his  interest  in  our  work,  I  am  sure  our  sympathy  will  be  greatly  increased. 
It  has  been  said,  my  Iiord,  that  e?ery  man  takes  away  from  a  meeting  much  more  than  he 
brings  to  it,  and  you  will  carry  away  the  hearty  and  loving  benediction  of  an  affectionate 
audience.    I  have  much  pleasure  in  seconding  the  Resolution. 

Sir  Francis  Crosslxt  then  put  the  Resolution,  which  was  carried  by  acclamation. 

The  Cbairmak  : — I  beg  to  offer  to  my  friend  Sir  Francis  Crossley.  who  proposed  the 
motion,  to  my  friend  Mr.  Wright,  who  seconded  it,  and  to  you,  my  Christian  friends,  who  so 
kindly  received  it,  my  very  sincere  and  humble  thanks  for  the  honour  which  you  have  con- 
ferred upon  me ;  and  let  me  assure  Mr.  Wright  that  the  sympathy  he  has  expressed  for  the 
movement  in  which  I  am  engaged  will  be  a  comfort  and  consolation  to  me  in  the  arduous 
undertaking  with  which  I  am  now  proceeding.  Now,  two  of  the  speakers,  Mr.  Owen  and 
Mr.  Alexander  Thomson,  have  remarked  in  effect  that  the  statements  which  they  have 
heard  this  day  have  exceeded  their  most  sanguine  expectations.  Now  I  cannot  say  that  my. 
self,  because  I  have  had  the  great  pleasure  of  occupyhig  this  place  before,  and  had  formed 
very  sanguine  expectations  indeed ;  but  what  I  will  say  is  this,  that  what  I  have  heard  to- 
day has  fully  come  up — I  cannot  pay  it  a  greater  compliment  than  by  saying  that — to  the 
anticipations  which  I  had  myself  formed.  One  single  word,  and  1  have  done.  The  most 
charming  feature  of  the  Meeting  to  me  is  the  illustration  it  has  afforded  of  the  extreme 
kindness  and  cordiality  of  Missionaries  towards  each  other.  Missionaries  of  all  denomina- 
tions, when  they  meet  abroad,  seem  to  vie  ¥rith  each  other  in  rendering  mutual  aid  and 
assistance  in  their  work  ;  and  I  do  not  know  that  I  can  better  conclude  than  with  an  ex- 
pression of  my  own  feelings  on  this  subject,  by  repeating  one  of  the  most  beautiful  oollects 
of  the  Prayer  Book,  which  is  this:  ^0  Lord,  who  hast  taught  us  that  all  our  doings  without 
charity  are  nothing  worth;  send  thy  Holy  Ghost,  and  pour  into  our  hearts  that  most  ex- 
cellent gift  of  charity,  the  very  bond  of  peace  and  of  all  virtues,  without  which  whosoever 
liveth  is  counted  dead  before  thee.'' 

The  Doxology  having  been  sung,  the  Rxv.  J.  B.  Owbn  pronounced  the  benediction,  and 
the  meeting  separated. 


EVENING  MEETING. 

The  adjourned  Meeting,  convened  specially  with  a  view  to  excite  the  interest  and  stimulate 
the  zeal  of  the  juvenile  friends  of  the  Society,  was  held  at  Poultry  Chapel,  under  the  presi- 
dency of  Henry  Wright,  Esq.,  Chairman  of  the  Board  of  Directors.  After  singing  and 
prayer,  extracts  from  the  Report  were  read  by  the  Home  Secretary,  the  Rev.  £.  Prout, 
when  a  series  of  animated  addresses,  in  support  of  the  important  objects  of  the  Meeting,  were 
delivered  by  the  following  Missionaries :  Revs.  George  Hall,  B.A.,  from  Madras,  W.  K. 
Lea,  from  Amoy,  James  Roome,  from  Berbice,  and  Samuel  J.  Hill,  from  Calcutta.

CHEONICLE. 


MADAGASCAR. 


The  intelligence  received  from  Madagascar  since  the  publication  of  the 
Annual  Eeport  of  the  Society,  which  extends  over  three  months,  supplies 
abundant  evidence  in  confirmation  of  preceding  information  both  from  the 
capital  and  the  provinces,  and  will,  we  are  sure,  deepen  the  gratitude  of  our 
Christian  readers,  and  stimulate  to  renewed  and  enlarged  efforts  on  behalf  of 
the  Mission. 

We  are  particularly  gratified  in  being  able  to  state  that  the  political 
and  social  state  of  the  country  has  become  more  consolidated  and  tranquil ; 
the  (Government  of  the  Queen  has  acquired  strength  and  is  administered 
generally  with  justice  and  impartiality,  while  the  principles  of  religious 
freedom  are  faithfully  maintained  towards  the  Native  Christians.  The 
absurd  and  extravagant  rumours  in  reference  to  the  death,  or  rather  the  life, 
of  Badama  II.,  which  seem  to  have  been  propagated  from  political  motives, 
have  almost  died  away,  and  the  apprehension  of  any  hostile  attack  on  the  Island 
by  foreigners  has  subsided.  We  trust  also  that  the  modifications  in  the 
treaties  between  Madagascar,  both  with  England  and  France,  which  have 
been  conceded  during  the  visit  of  the  Malagasy  Envoys,  will  tend  to  restore 
good  will  and  amity,  and  be  followed  by  commercial  and  friendly  intercourse 
highly  beneficial  to  all  parties  interested.  But,  above  all,  we  rejoice  that 
every  succeeding  post  renews  the  gratifying  assurance  that  the  Word  of  the 
Lord  has  free  course  and  is  glorified.  New  places  of  worship  are  opened, 
congregations  are  enlarged,  and  the  monthly  additions  to  the  number  of 
Church-members,  many  of  whom  are  connected  with  the  influential  £unilies 
of  the  capital,  afford  conclusive  proof  of  the  growing  strength  and  social  in- 
fluence of  Christianity. 

The  Rev.  Wai.  Ellis,  writing  under  date  March  1st,  gives  the  subjoined 
representation  of  the  state  and  prospects  of  the  Mission : —

the  Divine  Spirit  on  their  hearts.  No  month  has  passed  for  a  long  time  in 
which  additions  have  not  been  made  to  the  number  of  communicants  in  our 
Churches,  and  few  weeks  pass  in  which  we  have  not  letters  from  distant  places 
conveying  Christian  salutations  and  asking  for  books. 

CONTINUED  PE0GBE8S  OP  THE  GOSPEL  IN   DISTRICTS  OP   THE   COUNTRY 
DISTANT  PROM  THE  CAPITAL. 

"  Last  week  some  Christians  from  Vonezongo  wrote,  making  inquiries  respect- 
ing a  course  of  Christian  duty  in  a  special  case,  and  also  asking  for  Testaments 
and  copies  of  the  Psalms.  In  their  letter  they  stated  that  the  number  of  believers 
was  increasing  greatly,  both  men  and  women.  They  were,  indeed,  many,  but 
their  books  were  very  few.  I  supplied  their  need ;  and  though  they  had  been 
two  or  more  days  on  the  journey,  they  rested  in  the  capital  only  one  night, 
and  set  out  on  their  return  the  next  day. 

"  This  morning,  since  writing  the  foregoing,  a  Christian  messenger,  from. 
a  post  300  miles  to  the  S.E.,  has  arrived  with  a  letter  from  the  Christian 
governor  of  ihe  place,  whom  I  knew  during  my  former  visit  to  Madagascar, 
giving  an  account  of  the  increase  of  the  Christians  in  that  neighbourhood, 
and  asking  for  books.  We  do,  indeed,  thank  Grod  and  take  courage  under 
these  unequivocal  evidences  that  the  Lord  is  carrying  on  His  own  work 
in  this  land,  and  I  communicate  them  that,  while  you  sjnnpathize '  with, 
us  in  our  difficulties,  you  may  also  share  our  joys,  and  rest  with  us  on  the 
same  sources  of  trust  and  hope.  The  letter  referred  to  is  dated  on  the  19th 
of  February,  the  officeor  and  his  oompanioas  having  been  so  long  on  their 
jonmcy  to  the  capital  He  will  retem  after  the  £ea6t»  snd  I  shiil  then  write 
And  send  then  bo(^8. 

XXTBKBIOK  or  MIB8IONA&Y  LABOrBS  IN  ANTANANARIVO. 

We  are  lengthening  the  cords  of  our  tents  also  in  the  Capital,  A  temporary 
house  for  public  worship  is  nearly  finished  on  the  spot  whence  the  martyrs 
were  thrown  over  the  precipice,  in  which  I  have  no  doubt  we  shall  soon 
gather  the  nucleus  of  a  eongregatiofn  that  will  oocupy  the  Memorial  Church  to 
be  erected  there.  Last  Sunday,  assisted  by  Mr.  Toy,  I  opened  a  neat  and 
respectable  native  chapel,  capable  c^  holding  600  persons  or  more.  It  stands 
nearly  in  the  centre  of  the  capital,  and  but  a  few  yards  from  the  gate  of  the 
residence  of  tibe  Prime  Minister,  by  whom  the  erection  has  been  much  en- 
couraged. The  place  was  crowded  on  the  day  of  opening,  and  I  observed 
but  very  few  connected  with  any  of  the  other  congregations  in  the  city. 

"  The  progress  of  the  Gospel  is  not  only  a  cause  of  unspeakable  joy  at 
present,  but  every  month  that  it  continues  it  casts  forward  a  brightening 
light  on  the  future,  as,  thanks  be  to  God,  it  renders  the  return  of  per- 
secution in  that  friture  less  and  less  probaMe.  Therefore,  though  we  witness 
nothing  ^ctraordinary  or  new  in  the  oovrse  of  events  connected  with  our 
sacred  work,  we  have  increasingly  solid  grounds  for  encopragement  and  hqpe 
of  the  highest  and  best  kind — evidence  that  the  Spirit  of  God  is  operating  on. 
the  hearts  of  the  people  in  connection  with  the  word  and  ordinances  of  the 
Gk>spel.

urgent,  than  those  whkh  Madi^aacar  prevents  just  now.    The  diffieuHies  are

great,  aad  the  iuftoences  imfrkiMily  and  opposed  to  the  Gospel  are  nuBieiHMis 
and  powerful;  still  the  OhnstiaiiB  hold  their  ground,  and  their  numbers 
continue  to  increase;  not  so  numerously,  perhaps,  as  a  month  or  two  ago, 
but  still  sufficient  to  show  that  God  is  giving  testimony  to  the  word  of  Mis 
grace  in  the  finite  which  it  bears.  This  prosperity  is  not  confined  to  the 
operation  of  Christian  agency  witiiin  the  capital,  but  is  probably  more 
evident  in  the  villageB  around  than  in  the  capital  itself.  The  steady 
advance  of  Christianity  among  the  people,  amidst  all  the  difficulties  and 
ungenial  influences  by  which  it  is  continually  surrounded,  makes  all  diffi- 
culties and  trials  seem  comparatively  light.  We  feel  assured  these  sub- 
stantial grounds  of  enconragjement  will  not  be  forgotten  nor  overlooked  by 
the  many  sincere  fHends  of  the  Madagascar  Mission  in  their  devout  and 
grateful  acknowledgments  to  God,  while  the  exigencies  and  perils  of  the  Mis- 
sion inspire  and  urge  fervent  supplication  to  the  throne  oi  grace  onits  bdialf. 
I  am  often  very  much  encouraged  by  observing  the  difference  in  the  outward 
conduct  even  of  those  who  do  not  connect  themselves  with  the  Christians. 

BPPOETS  OF  THE   NA.TIVE   CHBI8TIANS  TO  EXTEND  THE  GOSPEL   IN  THE 

COUNTBY. 

"  Ton  wiU  be  glad  to  hear  that  the  Lord  continues  to  enlarge  His  kingdom 
in  Madagascar ;  and,  amidst  uuudi  that  needs  improvement,  we  have  many 
ngns  of  satisfactory  progress  aoMmg  tiie  Christians.  Our  Unitad  Prajer 
Meetings  are  well  attended,  and  the  people  are  understanding  their  doty  t  o 
provide  Hx&r  own  places  of  worship,  and  ai<e  making  truly  oommefidaWe 
efforts  in  furtherance  of  this  iaiportant  ol^ect.  I  have  had  two  lists  of 
native  contributions,  towards  the  erection  g£  {daces  of  worAim  brooi^t 
to  me  during  the  past  week.  In  these  the  members  of  the  Church  and 
congregation  have  tried  i^hat  they  coiuld  r«ise  among  themselves  first,  and 
then  have  come  to  ask  assistance  fi*om  their  friends  in  the  capital ;  and  on 
these  occasions  they  usually  pay  us  a  visit — often  a  preliminary  o«e — to  secure, 
if  possible,  the  pn>niise  of  aseistanoe  when  tiiey  set  to  work.  I  ha^e  iMid  mneh 
pleasure  in  giving  a  Httle  help  to  those  who  have  really  strivisn  to  hdp  thesi- 
selves,  and  I  should  be  truly  thanks  i£  any  generous  friends  to  the  evange- 
lization of  Madagascar  ediould  c(mfide  to  aiy  charge  any  suzas  they  might  be 
disposed  to  give  towards  these  and  similar  efforts.  It  is  certainly  one  means 
of  very  ^[tensive  good,  peculiarly  applicable  to  the  circumstances  of  the  pec^e 
at  the  present  time." 

The  following  brief  passage  from  a  letter  of  Mr.  Eestler  more  than  con- 
films  the  stat^nents  of  our  Brother  Mc  EUis : — 

«  Although  we  have  had  diaappointmeDLt  and  affiiotion,  ihe  state  and  pros- 
pects of  the  Mission  are  more  favourable  than  ever :  almost  evexy  week  neKv 
members  are  added  to  the  Church,  and  Christianity  is  extending  on  ail 
sides.  I  hope  our  good  friends  at  home  will  not  be  discouraged,  or  lack  in 
their  support  of  this  Mission,  for  I  am  more  convinced  than  ever  that  there  is 
no  other  Mission-Jleld  to  be  compared  with  Madagascar ;  and  our  united  prayer 
here  is  for  the  safe  and  upeedy  arrival  of  our  friends  from  Mauritius,  so  that 
our  hands  may  be  strengthened,  aad  we  may  be  enaHed  to  work  with  all 
<rar  might  and  with  renewed  seal  and  eaergy.*'

OBOWING  INFLUENCE  OF  0HBI8TIANITY,  ESPECIALLY  IN  THE  OB8BBTANCE 

OF  THE  SABBATH. 

The  succeeding  important  and  gratifying  statement  on  this  subject,  from 
Dr.  Davidson,  will  be  read  with  great  pleasure : — 

**  The  work  of  the  Mission  is,  so  far  as  I  can  see,  prospering.  A  new  con- 
gregation was  opened  jesterday,  and  it  was  so  crowded  that  when  I  went  up 
I  could  not  get  a  seat.  Without  having  any  positive  data,  my  impression  is, 
that  since  our  arrival  the  numbers  of  Christians — I  mean  hearers — have 
increased  at  least  one-third,  and  the  members  in  still  greater  proportion. 
One  most  pleasing  and  hopefdl  sign  is  the  regard  to  Sabbath.  The  market, 
which  stands  opposite  my  house  on  Andohalo,  is  nearly  deserted  on  Sunday ; 
in  fact,  in  this  respect  Antananarivo  is  decidedly  in  advance  of  London.  The 
fact  that  so  many  officers,  civilians,  and  slaves,  attend  the  church,  prevents 
.very  many  duties  from  being  performed  on  that  day,  and  consequently  gives 
a  Sabbath  to  their  associates  without  their  consent ;  sometimes,  no  doubt, 
against  their  wish.  A  heathen  merchant  need  not  bring  his  cloth  to  the  market, 
for  the  Christians  at  least  will  not  buy.  The  heathen,  also,  if  wishing  to  buy 
anything,  will  prefer  to  wait  until  Monday,  because  the  Christian  dealers  not 
^being  in  the  market  on  Sunday,  they  cannot  have  the  same  variety  to  choose 
from,  nor  will  they  be  able  so  well  to  secure  the  advantages  of  competition, 
in  this  way  I  have  noticed  that  the  dealers  in  many  articles  have  become 
gradually  fewer ;  and  last  Sunday  I  observed  for  the  first  time  that  every 
-cloth-stand,  without  exception,  was  deserted.  This  is  a  most  cheering  sign  in 
every  point  of  view,  as  it  cannot  £eu1  to  raise  the  character  of  the  people 
intellectually,  morally,  and  physically." 

VISITATIONS  OF  DISEASE  AND  DEATH. 

It  will  be  observed  from  the  preceding  communications  from  Madagascar, 
that  our  Missionary  Brethren,  amidst  much  to  cheer  and  encourage,  speak 
rwith  deep  feeling  of  their  difficulties  and  discouragements.  The  heaviest  of 
these  have  arisen  from  the  visitations  of  disease  and  death,  by  which  their 
limited  and  inadequate  numbers  have  been  seriously  diminished.  On  a  sub- 
sequent page  our  readers  will  learn  that  it  has  pleased  God  to  remove 
Mb.  St  ago,  on  whom  the  interests  of  education  specially  devolved;  and  we 
grieve  to  add  that  Mbs.  Peabse,  wife  of  the  Kev.  Johk  Peabse,  who  gave 
promise  of  more  than  usual  devotedness  to  the  spiritual  and  eternal  iliteii^ests 
of  the  people,  has  suddenly  sunk  under  the  fearful  influence  of  pulmonary 
^sease,  and  has  been  ordered  to  return  home  as  the  only  means  of  preserving 
life :  indeed,  it  may  be  doubted,  from  the  moumfiil  statement  of  her  case, 
whether  she  will  be  able  to  survive  the  voyage.  The  following  affecting 
letter  from  her  husband  contains  these  heavy  tidings,  which  are  to  all  her 
friends  as  unexpected  as  they  are  grievous :— 

"  Antananarivo,  March  SOth,  1864. 
**  Dbab  and  Rbv.  Sib,— It  is  my  painful  duty  to  inform  you  by  this  mail 
that  I  have  been  compelled,  on  account  of  the  severe  illness  of  my  wife,  to 


TOR  JULY,  1864.  205 

decide  to  retam  to  my  native  land  as  soon  as  a  more  settled  state  of  tlie 
weather  will  allow  us  to  attempt  the  journey  to  the  coast,  unless,  indeed, 
Mrs.  P.  should  be  so  much  worse  that  this  may  be  impossible. 

"  That  I  am  compelled  to  act  thus  will,  I  feel  sure,  be  the  cause  of  no  small 
anxiety  to  you,  while  to  myself  it  is  a  trial  under  which  at  times  I  almost  sink . 
I  left  England  with  my  beloved  partner  in  good  health,  having  a  strong 
desire  to  labour  in  this  part  of  the  Lord's  vineyard,  and  both  of  us  pre- 
pared  to  stay  many  years  before  returning  to  England.  The  hand  of  the  Lord 
has  brought  her  very  low,  and  all  my  hopes  seem  disappointed,  and  my  schemes 
firastrated. 

*'  With  an  earnest  desire  to  assist  me  in  every  good  work,  and  with  intel- 
lectual qualifications  that  seemed  to  fit  her  eminently  for  her  labours,  my 
wife  promised  not  only  to  be  a  blessing  to  myself,  but  one  also,  and  that  in 
no  small  measure,  to  the  Society  with  which  it  is  my  privilege  to  be  connected: 
How  strange  it  seems  to  us  that  she  should  so  soon  be  laid  aside,  and  that  her' 
earthly  course  should  be  threatened  to  be  brought  so  prematurely  to  a  close  ! . 

"  That  the  climate  has  had  not  a  little  to  do  with  developing  the  disease  from 
which  she  suffers,  I  think  admits  of  little  doubt.  Frqpi  her  infancy  she  has 
eigoyed  unusually  good  health  >  there  is  no  consumption  in  her  family. 
Before  her  acceptance  by  the  Society  we  forwarded  two  medical  certificates^ 
both  certifying  to  her  good  state  of  health.  There  was,  humanly  speaking, 
a  prospect  of  her  living  to  labour  in  the  vineyard  many  years. 

*•  I  should  have  been  glad  to  have  written  home  and  asked  your  advice 
before  finally  deciding  upon  returning,  but  that  the  case  did  not  admit  of.  I 
feel  that  I  shall  not  want  your  sympathy,  and  that,  under  the  circumstances,  • 
you  will  approve  of  the  course  I  am  taking. 

"  Our  present  purpose  is  to  leave  early  in  the  month  of  May.  This  is  rather 
early,  and  some  would  dissuade  us  from  attempting  the  journey  so  soon ;  but 
Dr.  Davidson  says  most  decidedly  that  it  is  the  least  of  two  evils,  as  he  fears, 
if  Mrs.  P.  stays  till  June,  she  will  not  be  able  to  take  the  journey.    *    ♦    * 

"  But  to  turn  for  a  little  from  my  trials  to  my  joys.  You  will  be  pleased  to 
know  that  we  are  still  permitted  to  pursue  our  great  work  without  interruption, 
and  that  in  my  labours  I  meet  with  much  encouragement,  and  with  much  that 
calls  for  gratitude  and  praise.  I  have  been  able  to  make  considerable  progress 
in  the  language,  so  that  I  can  read  very  fairly,  and  carry  on  a  conversation 
without  very  much  difficulty.  In  connection  with  my  Church  I  read  and  pray. 
and  now  conduct  my  Church  meetings.  I  have  not  yet  preached,  as  the  school  has 
taken  up  so  much  of  my  time  lately.  It  will  interest  you  to  know  that  since 
the  death  of  Mr.  Stagg  the  numbers  have  not  decreased,  but  that  we  still  have 
an  average  attendance  of  some  110  children.  In  the  various  branches  of  in- 
struction they  make  very  satisfactory  progress,  and,  from  the  observations  I 
have  made,  I  think  they  prove  themselves  on  an  equality  with  many  children 
in  our  English  schools.  My  chapel  at  Analakely  continues  to  be  well  attended, . 
and  at  our  Church  meeting  last  Wednesday  we  admitted  six  moi*e  new 
members. 

"  In  the  midst  of  so  much  that  is  encouraging,  it  is  with  feelings  of  deep  sor- 
row that  I  anticipate  my  removal  from  this  scene  of  labour,  while  those  among 
whom  I  have  laboured  are  equally  sorry  that  I  should  leave  them.    The  Chris*

VISIT  TO   1    HEATHEN    *' MBIA,"    OE   FAIfi. 

On  Indian  Hissioaanes  frequently  visit  these  scenes  o£  public  lesorty  in 
vrhich  great  nnmbeis  of  the  people  are  gathered  together,  and  advaatageous 
oppovtuaities  are  afibrded  of  preaehing  and  teaching  the  troths  of  salvation 
to  thousands  who  have  never  heard  the  joyfal  sound.  The  Rfv.  G-eoiblge 
Shkewsbxtrt,  of  Berhampore,  in  the  month  of  March  last  visited  a  Mela, 
distant  about  eighteen  miles  from  the  city  of  Moorshedabad,  and  his  description 
of  the  scene  which  follows  will  afford  both  interest  and  instruction.  It 
exhibits,  indeed,  in  common  with  all  forms  of  Paganism,  the  mournful  com- 
bination of  credulity,  superstition^  and  gross  vice ;  and  should  remind  us  of 
the  difficulties  and  discouragements  «nder  which  our  Missionary  Srethren 
pursue  their  generous  but  trying  labours,  and  t^ach  us  the  duty  of  sustaining 
ihem  under  their  burdens  by  affectiomii  sympathy  and  earnest  prayer. 

KOPIL  ESHWAR  MEIA. 

OBIOIK  OF  THE  MILA. 

"  This  fair  was  instituted  to  commemorate  the  miracnlous  finding  of  an  image 
of  Shiv.  The  story  is  briefly  this  : — A  certain  man  was  in  the  habit  of  sending 
his  cows  to  graze  in  a  field  by  the  river's  side,  until  it  happened  that  they 
came  home  with  their  udders  empty.  This  was  repeated  again  and  again, 
and,  on  a  watch  being  set,  it  was  discovered  that  the  cows  gave  their  milk  of 
their  own  accord,  over  a  stone  half  buried  in  the  ground.  This,  as  may  be  ■ 
supposed,  perplexed  the  man  not  a  little,  and  at  length  became  the  subject  of 
his  waking  thoughts  and  nightly  dreams ;  at  any  rate,  the  story  goes  that  one 
ni^t  Shiv  appeared  to  him  in  a  vision*  and  said,  *  Take  me  up  and  build  me 
a  house.'  This  explained  all  the  mystery.  That  stone  was  Shiv,  to  whom, 
under  his  name  of  Kopil  Eshwar,  cows  are  sacred.  The  man  obeyed  the 
vision,  built  a  temple,  set  up  the  stone  idol  in  it,  and  called  it  Kopil  Eshwar. 
The  fame  of  the  new  shrine  spread  abroad,  and  people  began  to  resort  to  it. 
Tlie  first  temple  has  long  since  disappeared ;  it  was  swallowed  up  in  an  en- 
croachment of  the  river.  I  mentioned  this  to  a  man  as  an  instance  of  the 
vanity  of  idols,  since  if  Shiv  could  not  save  his  own  house,  how  could  he  save 
others ;  but  the  answer  of  the  man  was  ready  and  complete :  *  Oh,'  said  he, 
*  the  god  wanted  to  bathe  and  called  the  river  to  him.'    The  present  temple  is 


FOB  JULY,  1864.  207 

to  the  north  of  Shoktipnre,  and  the  mela  is  held  in  an  open  space  between  it 
and  the  town. 

DSSCBIPnON  OP  THE  SCENE. 

"  A  mela,  or  fair,  what  is  it  Hke  ?  Not  exactly  like  an  English  fair,  nor  jet 
altogether  unlike.  They  were  no  donbt  established  in  the  first  instance  to 
meet  a  real  want.  In  large  districts,  scattered  over  with  villages  and  small 
towns,  the  annnal  mela  is  the  only  opportnnity  the  people  have  of  procuring- 
many  articles  of  daily  use,  without  taking  a  journey  to  some  large  town,  and 
accorcBngly  they  resort  to  the  mela  for  the  sake  of  procuring  a  supply.  As 
roads  and  railroada  multiply,  the  need  for  the  mela  is  done  away.  We  hear 
a  great  deal  of  their  former  magnitude,  but  they  are  not  very  large  now,  and 
€very  year  we  may  expect  to  see  them  become  less. 

''At  these  melaa,  as  at  English  fairs,  the  shops  or  stalls  are  ranged  in  rows 
forming  a  kind  of  street,  sometimes  with  an  awning  of  some  sort  stretched 
from,  side  to  side.  Most  of  the  shops  are  of  the  slightest  description.  They 
consist  of  three  sides  and  a  roo(  all  of  sticks  and  straw,  peihi^  with  a  middle 
wall  which  shuts  off  a  small  spaoe  where  the  shopkeeper  may  sleep  and  ec^ 
Stnu^nires  of  a  more  substantial  kind  are  reared  where  goods  more  valuable 
or  more  perishable  are  kept,  but  all  are  sHght,  and  one  can  hardly  help  specu- 
lating npoa  the  rate  at  which  they  would  fly  before  the  north-western  koiri* 
caaea  which  come  on  at  this  time  of  the  year ;  but  fortunately  the  weather  has 
been  remarkably  fine  during  my  stay.  In  the  various  stalls  are  to  be  seen 
almost  everythiug  the  native  ever  wants :  vessels  of  all  kinds  of  earth,  stone, 
asid  brass,  for  eating,  drinking,  and  cooking;  gods  and  goddesses^  door-posts, 
window-frames,  and  shop-benches  or  counters.  Lions  and  shrimps  are  repre- 
sented in  clay,  painted  to  loc^  like  silver ;  but  why  these  two  alone  of  all  the 
animal  creation,  I  really  cannot  tell.  Here,  too,  are  hookhas,  shoes,  sweetmeats, 
books,  boxes,  looking-glasses,  whistles,  toys,  ^ces,  tobacco^  &c.,  &c.  The 
wh(^  thing  is  stamped  with  more  of  a  commercial  appearance  than  fairs  in 
England.  Trade  and  not  amusement  is  the  presiding  genius.  The  only  pro- 
visioa  for  amusement  that  I  saw  was  a  kind  of  turn-about  or  up-and-down, 
something  like  what  are  common  in  England.  Ton  may  get  in  and  take  a 
ride  in  it  of  ten  or  twelve  times  up  and  down  for  the  small  charge  of  one  ploe. 

LABOTTBS  OF  THE  MISSIONABT  AND  CATECHISTS. 

"  To  this  place  I  came  on  the  14fth  of  this  month  (March),  intending  to  stay 
about  a  fortnight.  Close  by  Shoktipore  is  a  silk-factory  with  a  small  house 
belonging  to  it.  The  factory  is  closed,  and  the  house  unoccupied,  so  I  sought 
and  obtained  permission  to  use  the  house  for  the  few  days  of  my  stay.  Two 
Oatechists,  Gbunoli  and  Porom,  are  with  me,  besides  Bishonath,  who  has 
come  to  sell  Bibles.  We  have  been  out  morning  and  evening  to  preach  in  the 
mela  and  the  villages  around ;  iu  the  morning  the  two  Oatechists  going  in 
one  direction,  and  I  in  another,  while  in  the  evening  we  went  all  together  to 
the  mela.  Here  too  Bishonath  took  his  stand  for  the  best  part  of  the  day, 
with  his  books  exposed  for  sale. 

**  1  was  at  first  greatly  disappointed  with  the  size  of  the  mela,  it  was  so 
mneh  smaller  than  what  I  expected ;  sad  though  it  increased  consideraldy 
aftermrds,  it  is  not  very  large  now.    Howbeit,  we  have  always  had  a  good

number  of  listeners.  As  I  pass  through  the  bazar,  I  often  hear  it  said, '  There 
goes  Jesus  Christ's  man ' — an  honourable  appellation — would  that  I  deserved 
it  more.  Amongst  the  listeners  have  been  those  whose  bearing  could  not  but 
inspire  one  with  hope.  Quiet  and  serious,  they  listened  attentively  to  tlie 
preached  word,  and  went  away  apparently  pondering  what  they  had  heard. 
There  were  some  who  annoyed  us  by  coming  day  after  day  with  the  same 
questions,  and  interrupting  us  with  the  same  objections;  yet,  when  ihej 
protest  that  they  really  desire  to  get  at  the  truth,  why  may  I  not,  at  least 
sometimes,  believe  them  P  It  certainly  cannot  be  an  easy  thing  for  a  man  to 
abandon  as  wrong  that  which  for  twenty  or  thirty  or  forty  years  he  has  firmly 
held  to  be  right. 

INDIFFBBBNCE  OF  THE  NATIYBS. 

"  Of  a  very  large  portion  of  the  people  I  think  it  may  be  said  that  they  are 
altogether  careless  about  which  is  true — Christianity  or  Hindooism.  It  con- 
tents them  to  do  what  their  fathers  did  and  their  neighbours  are  doing,  and 
they  cannot  conceive  that  they  ought  to  change  their  religion  because  they 
have  not  a  better  reason  for  keeping  it.  Besides,  they  like,  as  it  is  natural 
they  shoidd  like,  the  licence  which  their  religion  allows  them ;  and  then  there 
is  the  fear  of  breaking  caste.  They  commend  the  truths  of  the  Bible,  admit 
the  entire  reasonableness  of  the  Divine  plan  of  salvation,  offer  not  a  word  in 
opposition  to  what  we  advance,  but  just  go  away  ignoring  the  question 
altogether.  What  can  we  do  to  arouse  them  P  We  tell  them  again  and  again 
the  message  of  salvation,  and  pray  for  an  exercise  of  Gknl's  awakening  power. 
Only  let  them  have  such  a  sense  of  the  powers  of  the  world  to  come  as  shall 
overcome  their  fears  about  losing  caste,  and  then  they  will  come  to  the  cross. 
Oh,  when  will  the  Breath  come  and  breathe  upon  these  slain  that  they  ma^ 
liveP 

"  This  negative  kind  of  resistance  is  discouraging,  but  most  heart-sickening 
at  times  is  the  active  opposition  we  encounter.  It  is  in  this  .that  we  see  most 
of  the  blindness  and  wickedness  of  the  human  heart.  The  lust  and  obscenity 
of  their  gods  and  goddesses  are  defended  with  the  most  unblushing  effrontery, 
and  the  greatest  falsehoods  and  absurdities  are  put  forth  with  bi*azen-&ced 
assurance.  I  have  no  time  to  write,  nor  would  you  have  patience  to  read,  all 
that  passes  between  us.  Indeed,  I  cannot  write  that  of  which  I  am  often 
obliged  to  speak.  One's  heart  is  ready  to  break  to  see  men's  minds  beclouded 
with  ignorance  and  sin,  and  they  loving  to  have  it  so. 

*'  The  Maliommedans,  as  usual,  treated  us  with  indifference  and  contempt. 
Said  they,  *  We  worship  Qod,  what  do  we  want  with  your  Jesus  ?  Our  books 
do  not  tell  us  to  worship  Him.'  And  so  they  turn  from  us  with  scorn,  or 
noisily  oppose  us.  A  very  respectable  and  intelligent  looking  man  one  day 
pushed  his  way  through  the  crowd  when  I  was  speaking,  and  began  what  was 
meant  as  a  very  severe  rebuke,  for  my  saying  that  Jesus  was  God. 

CIBCULATION  OF  BOOKS. 

"  Books  of  all  kinds  are  eagerly  sought  after.  The  desire  to  get  them  is 
only  equalled  by  the  unwillingness  to  pay  for  them,  and  in  too  many 
instances  I  am  afraid  a  book  is  valued,  not  as  containing  so  much  truth,  bat 
as  consisting  of  so  much  paper.    Bishonath  has  been  very  unsuccessful  in

seDing  the  Scriptures.  I  fixed  very  low  prices — about  a  quarter  of  the  value, 
yet  even  that  was  too  much.  So  long  have  tracts  and  Scriptures  been  given 
away,  that  our  asking  a  price  is  looked  upon  as  an  imposition,  and  resented 
as  such.  Boys  were  the  most  perseveiing  applicants.  Seldom  did  I  ga 
through  the  bazar  without  a  number  of  youngsters  running  after  me  and 
shouting,  '  Sahib,  give  me  a  Jesus  Christ;'  meaning,  of  course,  a  book  about  . 
Him.  Rather  more  than  three  hundred  tracts  were  given  away — not  many, 
you  may  think ;  but  many  of  these  consist  of  from  thirty  to  forty  pages,  and  . 
the  number  of  readers  is  small  compared  with  the  population. 

"  I  expect  to  go  back  to  Berhampore  to-morrow,  having  been  down  here . 
now  just  a  fortnight.   I  think  my  stay  ends  just  at  the  right  time.    The  wind 
is  whistling  and  seems  to  threaten  a  storm.    I  shall  be  happy  if  I  escape  one 
on  my  way.

SOUTH  TRAVANCOEE. 

CHABACT£K  AND  DEATH  OF  A  NATIVE  EVANGELIST. 

The  friends  of  the  Society  are  well  aware  that  the  extension  of  the  Gospel"^ 
in  the  province  of  South  Teavancoke  has  been  much  greater  than  in  any 
other  part  of/India  in  which  the  Society  labours.  Its  operations  in  that  pro- 
vince have  been  prosecuted  for  more  than  half  a  century,  and  at  the  present 
time  there  are  eight  efficient  European  labourers.  They,  however,  derive  their, 
greatest  assistance  and  encouragement  from  a  numerous  body  of  Native 
AgentSf  many  of  whom  are  admirably  qualified  for  their  peculiar  labours. 
One  of  their  number  has  lately  been  called  to  his  rest.  He  bore  the  honoured 
name  of  James  Shebman,  and  was  supported  by  the  kind  friends  at  Surrey 
Chapel  who  were  so  long  blest  with  the  ministry  of  that  man  of  God.  The 
Rev.  G.  O.  Newpoet,  of  Pareychaley,  in  which  district  the  departed  Evangelist 
chiefly  laboured,  has  supplied  a  brief  memorial  of  his  life,  from  which  we  are 
sure  the  friends  of  native  agency  will  be  encouraged  to  help  forward  that 
most  important  branch  of  Missionary  work. 

"  Pareychaley,  29th  April,  1864. 

'*  My  dear  De.  Tidman, — ^Interested  as  you  are  in  our  Missions  in  generalt 
and  especially  in  that  department  of  them  which  has  to  do  more  immediately 
with  tiie  heathen  themselves,  viz.  the  itinerant  department,  you  will  be 
very  sorry  to  hear  that  our  friend  James  Sherman,  the  indefatigable  and 
warm-hearted  preacher  to  the  heathen  in  the  Pareychaley  district,  has  gone 
to  his  rest.  His  death,  though  doubtless  great  gain  to  him,  is  a  great  losa 
to  the  Mission;  for  though  we  may  get  other  agents  to  take  his  place,  who 
are  his  superiors  in  education  and  ability,  we  shall  never  get  any  to  surpass 
(if  even  to  equal)  him  in  courage,  earnestness,  and  devotedness  to  his  work. 

"  I  have  endeavoured  to  collect  a  few  particulars  of  his  life,  for  the  informa- 
tion of  his  kind  supporters  and  other  friends  of  the  Mission.

EABtiY  HISTOEY. 

**  It  appears  that  he  was  formerly  a  palinjra-tree  climber,  like  the  great 
migoritj  of  our  Christians  in  Travancore,  and  that  he  became  a  convert  to 
Christianitj  about  twenty-five  years  ago.  He  was  then  living  in  the  Neyoor 
district,  and  continued  to  do  so  for  some  time  afterwards.  About  twelve  or 
thirteen  years  ago  he  was  employed  by  the  Missionary  in  the  printing-office 
at  that  station,  but  still  continued  to  climb  trees  night  and  morning.  After- 
wards, during  the  time  that  Rev.  C.  C.  Leitch  had  charge  of  the  Neyoor  district, 
he  was  fully  employed  as  aCatechist,  and  laboured  in  that  capacity  for  some 
three  or  four  years. 

HIS  POYIBTY  AKD  SSLV-DENIAL  AS  A  CHfilSTIAN  SyAKOfiLISt. 

"  Conceiving  himself  specially  adapted  for  preaching  the  Gospel  to  the ' 
heathen,  and  having  his  heart  full  of  that  glorious  work,  he  left  his  settled 
employment  and  travelled  hither  and  thither  in  the  prosecution  of  the  labour 
which  he  himself  had  chosen.  As  he  was  very  poor,  and  unable  to  subsist 
without  a  fixed  salary,  or  the  charity  of  the  Christians  whom  he  might  fall  in  with, 
he  drew  up  a  sort  of  testimonial  or  petition  stating  his  object  in  thus  moving 
about,  and  the  need  there  was  that  they  shoidd  supply  his  bodily  necessities. 
In  this  document  he  states,  that  he  had  a  wife  and  five  children  depending  on 
hdm  for  support,  and  that  this  thought  gave  him  some  uneaflomeM  at  first;  bat 
when  he  remembered  that  it  was  written, '  Caat  all  your  care  upon  Him,  for 
He  caa-eth  for  you,'  he  rid  himself  of  his  fears,  and  gave  himself  up  to  Iu0 
work. 

"  This  tour,  if  such  it  may  be  called,  was  chiefly  confined  to  TinneveUy,  but 
he  travelled  as  far  north  as  Madras,  a  distance  of  400  or  500  miles  from  his 
home,  trusting  entirely  for  his  sustenance  to  the  charity  of  strangers,  and 
preaching  the  Gospel  of  the  blessed  Gk>d  to  all  cafftes  and  classes  of  people 
Whom  he  met  in  his  way. 

"  I  am  in  possession  of  a  letter  written  by  a  native  Obrifltian  of  Wnnefelly 
reepectmg  him.  He  says  thart,  altiiougfa  many  x>enone  had  come  ftom 
Tvavaaoore  into  TinneveUy  fear  the  professed  puzpoee  of  preaohdng  the  glad 
udings  of  salvation  to  the  heathen,  some  of  them  were  merely  aetoaited  by  a 
desire  of  getting  a  comfortable  livdihood.  This  man,  (James  Sherman), 
however,  was  proved  to  be  of  a  different  stamp ;  for  though  they  purposely 
kept  him  without  food  a  whole  day  and  night,  and  plied  him  with  vexing  and 
annoying  ({uestions  while  he  was  preaching  to  the  heathen,  he  never  flinched, 
bvt  ooostinued  proclaiming  his  message  in  the  faoe  of  all  opposition  nntil 
thoroughly  weaned  out  witii  hunger  acnd  fiitigae. 

"'  Afiier  this  tour,  he  returned  to  Trarancore  and  came  to  reside  in 
Pareychaley  district.  The  Bev.  J.  Abbe,  who  was  l^en  Missionary  here,  em- 
ployed him  as  an  itinerant  preadier  to  the  heathen,  which  office  he  held  till 
his  death. 

IKCBS8AKT  LABOTTB8. 

**  Since  I  entered  upon  the  charge  of  this  district,  there  has  been  no  agent 
whom  I  saw  less,  or  spoke  to  less,  than  James  Sherman.  He  never  had  any 
besineBS  to  transact  with  me  beyond  presenting  his  report  asad  receiving  his 
pay  month  after  month ;  nor  had  I  any  need,  on  my  part,  to  interfere  in  any

▼ay  with  kis  labours.  He  knew  and  loyed  his  work,  and  would  hme  gone  on 
josi  Hhe  same  whetber  there  had  been  a  Missionarj  orer  him  or  not.  AhhoBg^ 
Ida  house  was  in  the  Mission  compound,  and  rery  near  the  bimgalow,  I  scarce 
erer  saw  him,  for  he  was  rarely  at  home,  but  almost  always  out  in  the 
distrkft  prosecuting  his  glorious  mission. 

**  I  remember  on  one  occasion  he  asked  permission  to  go  to  Nagercoil  to  see 
the  Assistant  Missionaxy.  I  gare  him  permission,  but  added, '  Make  yourself 
useful  on  ike  way.'  This  occurred  before  I  could  8x>eak  in  the  vernacular,  and 
therefore  the  words  were  obliged  to  be  translated  to  him  by  an  interpreter. 
I  don't  know  whether  they  were  interpreted  as  I  intended  them  or  not,  nor 
iThetiher  Ms  reply  was  clearly  rendered  to  myseSf  in  return ;  but  I  was  informed 
that  he  replied  to  t&e  effect  that  he  wcbs  not  in  the  habit  of  letting  any  oppor-' 
tunity,  however  small,  pass  away  without  doing  his  becrfc  to  improve  it.  This 
testimcmy  I  believe  to  be  true. 

*^He  ney«r  lost  a  minute  in  uselese  or  selfish  deeds,  but  was  «oii«tanily  on 
iske  watoh  for  fresh  opportunities  for  glorifying  his  Hasteat^s  mane. 

"  Friday  is  allowed  the  agents  of  this  district  as  a  r^t-day,  for  ihear  bodily 
and  flpiritfml  refireshment ;-  but  I  do  not  believe  that  our  departed  &iend. 
Jamas  ^lerman,  ever  todk  ik&t  day  for  himself.  For  his  spiaitual  improve- 
ment all  days  -were  alike  to  him — he  read  his  Bible  and  prayed  as  he  wailked 
along  the  road  from  village  to  village — and  as  for  his  bodily  rest,  he  never 
seemod  io  fed  weary  escept  when  really  91. 

HIS  P2ABX.B88  OOT7BAGS« 

*'  He  'WM  a  most  courageous  and  unoooapiroBEiisBig  preacher  to  'the  heathen, 
and  his  sseal  was  not  always  tempered  with  judgment.  On  one  occasion,  when 
the  ladies  of  the  royal  family  were  traweSiBg  along  the  public  road,  he  managed 
to  force  his  way  to  the  palanquiii  of  the  mother  of  the  king,  and  besovght  h^ 
to  believe  on  the  Lord  Jesus  Christ.  For  this,  I  believe,  he  was  soundly 
thcaalied  by  the  peam  (guards)  who  were  on  guard  at  the  time.  On  anotftier 
osoBsicn  he  entered  onto  the  presence  of  the  king  himself,  and  in^ed  him  in 
like  maimflT  to  trust  in  tiie  Saviour  of  tbe  world.  This  time  he  was  seised  and 
iminrisaned ;  bat,  on  the  king  learning  who  he  was,  he  was  set  sit  Bl>evty. 

^  While  speaking  <m  this  point,  I  will  just  make  one  ^ciaraot  from  tlie  last 
report  he  ever  presented.  He  writes :  '  Macrch  5th.  Having  heard  the  Dewan 
(Fraie  Minister)  was  to  be  at  Ooodeiory  to-day,  I  proceeded  thither,  but 
esald  only  fs«ach  to  the  crowd  of  people  who  attended  him.  When  I  spoke 
to  t^iein  abcut  the  salvation  of  their  souls,  some  of  Hic  officials  ariced, '  What 
is  salvation  ?'  I  replied,  '  Heaven.'  They  then  asked,  '  Who  has  ever  seen 
hsttren  P  have  you  ever  seen  it  P'  I  read  to  tibem  2  Oor.  Sfth  chapter,  gave  them 
sosie  tnaote,  and  came  away,  in  this  way  I  strive  with  my  utmost  abOity 
16  do  good  to  high  as  well  as  low,  and  pray  da%  for  God's  blessing  upon 
Hall.' 

HIB  ILLWESS  AJSTD  DEATH. 

**  From  what  I  have  said,  you  will  easily  imagine  how  surprised  I  felt  a  few 
days  ago,  when  I  saw  James  Sherman  standing  near  the  Mission  bungalow 
and  doing  nothing.  I  was  not  long  kept  in  suspense.  He  said  he  had  felt  iH 
the  day  before,  but  persisted  in  g:)ing  to  the  market  to  preach  aa  usual — ^had

retomed  much  worse,  and  Had  been  very  ill  with  dysentery  the  whole  night 
long.  I  gave  him  some  medicine,  but  did  not  take  very  much  notice  of  it,  as 
I  had  had  several  cases  of  dysentery,  and  in  fact  had  had  a  slight  attack 
myself.  I  thought,  therefore,  that  the  change  in  the  weather  might  have 
produced  it,  and  that  it  would  pass  off  soon.  A  day  or  two  passed,  but  he 
was  still  ill.  I  had  given  him  yarious  powerful  remedies,  but  they  all  failed 
of  the  desired  effect.  I  therefore  thought  it  best  for  him  to  go  to  Neyoor  to 
Dr.  Lowe,  and  provided  four  men  to  carry  him,  for  he  was  too  ill  to  walk. 

"  This  was  done ;  but  he  said  he  thought  he  shoidd  have  died  on  the  road. 
For  a  few  days  he  Seemed  improving ;  but  relapse  came  on,  and  he  sank 
through  excessiye  weakness.  Of  his  last  few  minutes  I  have  received  the  follow- 
ing brief  statement  from  Dr.  Lowe.  He  writes :  *  You  will  be  sorry  to  hear 
that  poor  James  Sherman  died  yesterday  afternoon.  He  was  improving  till 
Sabbath  morning ;  but  he  then  had  a  renewal  of  his  attack.  This  was  checked 
by  Monday  morning  a  good  deal,  but  he  sank  through  weakness.  He  was 
very  happy,  and  very  grateftd  for  any  attention  we  showed.  He  spoke  to 
his  daughter  very  solemnly,  and  seemed  very  anxious,  just  before  death,  to 
warn  all  and  invite  all  to  the  Saviour.  I  saw  him  in  the  forenoon,  and  he 
was  full  of  joy,  as  he  said,  in  prospect  of  soon  seeing  Jesus.  On  going  my 
rounds  among  my  patients,  in  the  afternoon,  I  had  just  entered  the  room 
where  he  was,  when  he  died.' 

'*  Such  was  the  end  of  James  Sherman,  and  such  was  the  ruling  principle 
of  his  life,  to  '  warn  all,  and  invite  all  to  come  to  the  Saviour.'  I  have 
mentioned  before,  how  great  our  loss  is,  and  you,  sir,  will  folly  understand  it. 
The  Hfe,  labours,  and  death  of  such  a  man  are  a  great  encouragement  to  us 
who  labour  here,  and  I  doubt  not  would  be  to  all  supporters  of  Missions  in 
England,  if  known  to  them.  The  &ct  that  the  Gospel  has  saved  such  a  man, 
has  been  his  life  comfort,  and  his  daily  message  to  the  heathen,  and  at  length 
secured  him  a  happy  and  triumphant  entry  into  glory,  is  a  sufficient  proof 
that  the  labours  of  missionaries  have  not  been  in  vain ;  and  it  furnishes 
strong  grounds  for  hoping  that  in  future  time  many  more  like  him  will  arise 
to  honour  the  Saviour  by  their  lives,  and  glorify  Him  by  their  labours. 

« I  am  afraid  I  have  tal^en  up  too  much  of  your  time,  and  that  you  will 
think  I  have  made  too  much  of  the  incidents  which  I  have  narrated.  I  have 
thought  it  due,  however,  to  the  kind  supporters  of  James  Sherman  to  give 
them  a  correct  and  full  account  of  their  late  representative  in  the  Mission 
field.  I  shall  feel  glad,  therefore,  if  you  will  kindly  communicate  to  them  as 
much  of  this  as  you  think  they  will  care  to  know,  and  beg  them  not  to 
discontinue  their  subscription  on  account  of  the  death  of  their  agent, 
but  to  use  their  utmost  endeavour  to  double  it,  so  as  to  support  two  such 
agents  in  this  district.  Li  my  printed  report  of  this  district  for  the  year 
I  inserted  extracts  from  our  lamented  friend's  journal,  and  mentioned  the 
£act  that  nearly  100,000  heathens  are  calculated  to  be  living  in  Parey- 
chaley  district  alone,  in  addition  to  the  many  thousands  in  other  parts  of 
Travancore ;  it  will,  therefore,  be  obvious  that  two  agents  in  this  department 
of  our  Mission  work  are  insufficient,  but  will  be  truly  acceptable.  You  will 
have  seen  from  my  report,  which  I  forwarded  in  Febniary  last,  that  for  the 
last  seven  months  I  have  been  enabled  to  preach  to  the  people  in  their  own

to  hope  on  for  the  fntore.

DECEASE  OF  MISSIONARIES. 

It  is  with  deep  regret  we  have  to  announce  the  recent  remoyal  by  death 
of  several  highly  esteemed  labourers  in  the  field  of  foreign  service,  the 
majority  being  females,  the  exemplary  and  devoted  wives  of  missionaries, 
who  survive  to  deplore  their  loss,  and  to  carry  on  their  arduous  work  un-

DEATH  OF  MR.  C.  H.  STA6G,  OF  MADAGASCAR. 

Our  departed  Mend,  who,  with  five  other  missionary  agents,  left  this 
country  for  Madagascar  in  April,  1862,  on  arriving  at  his  destination  applied 
himself  with  assiduity  to  the  department  of  labour  assigned  to  him,  viz. :  the 
estabHshment  of  juvenile  schools,  and  the  special  instruction  of  a  higher  class 
of  pupils,  with  a  view  to  their  becoming  qualified  for  the  office  of  Teachers. 
In  these  labours  of  love  our  Mend  continued  to  be  engaged  until  the  middle 
of  January  last,  when  he  was  attacked  by  Malagasy  fever,  and,  to  the  deep 
regret  of  his  Brethren  in  the  Mission,  and  of  his  numerous  and  attached 
pupils,  he  died  on  the  5th  of  the  following  month.  The  subjoined  parti- 
culars are  given  in  a  letter  firom  Dr.  Davidson,  dated  Antananarivo,  February 
29th,  ult.:— 

"  It  is  my  painful  duty  to  let  you  know  of  the  death  of  one  of  our  number. 
Mr.  Stagg,  our  kind  and  devoted  brother  and  fellow-labourer,  has  gone  to  his 
reward.  For  some  constitutions  the  climate  of  Antananarivo  is  trying,  and 
our  devoted  brother  had  never  enjoyed  good  health  since  his  arrival ;  yet  his 
constitution  did  not  seem  to  be  much  affected  by  the  slight  fever  from  which 
he  every  now  and  again  suffered.  These  attacks  of  fever  yielded  readily  to 
remedies,  and  were  never  so  serious  as  to  cause  us  any  anxiety.  He  attended 
the  ceremony  of  laying  the  foundation-stone  of  the  Hospital  on  Thursday, 
Januaiy  14th,  and  on  the  Saturday  following  he  took  tea  at  my  house  and 
seemed  happy  and  hopeful.  He  said, '  I  have  never  felt  better  since  I  came 
to  Madagascar,'  and  he  looked  well  and  was  cheerful.  On  Monday,  the  18th, 
he  felt  slightly  indisposed,  and  on  Tuesday  requested  me  to  visit  him.  I 
found  him  in  bed,  slightly  feverish,  but  nothing  to  indicate  a  fatal  or  even 
severe  disease.    About  the  end  of  the  week  the  fever  declared  itself,  and 


31)4  MISaONART  KAGJiemB 

ire  saw  that  it  was  of  an  iirfltiiimtt"^  and  not  of  a  ivmittent  itype. 
Deliriuin  set  in,  first  of  a  gloomy  and  sad,  then  of  a  cheerfdl  kind,  and  abont 
a  week  after  the  ferer  began  it  became  ftirious.  Under  appropriate  treatment 
the  fever  abated,  and  for  a  day  or  two  we  almost  hoped  he  might  recover.  On 
Sunday,  the  Slat  January,  however,  the  fever  returned,  and  the  delirium  with 
it.  He  became  gradually  worse,  and  died  insensible  about  five  o'clock  a.m.  on 
Friday,  February  5th,  after  having  been  ill  for  above  a  fortnight.  Not  only  do 
we  who  remain  feel  his  loss,  but  his  gentleness  had  endeared  him  to  the 
natives,  some  thousands  of  whom,  including  his  scholars,  followed  him  in 
tears  to  his  grave  at  Mahamasina,  where  he  awaits  the  coming  of  his 
Saviour." 

The  Rev.  W.  ElHs,  in  a  letter  dated  February  15th,  makes  the  following 
additional  statement : — 

^  BnriBg  our  dear  brother's  iUftess  he  was  seldom  collee^ed  and  sensible 
for  «ny  k>Qg  period  together,  and  sosnetimes  the  violcnoe  ef  delirium  -was 
truly  distressing  to  those  who,  sight  and  day,  were  waiching  at  his  bed-side. 
But  though  the  intervals  during  which  his  mind  was  calm  were  few,  yet  they 
sufficed  to  show  that  his  soul  was  stayed  on  his  Redeemer,  and  his  mind 
supported  and  cooiforted  by  the  cheering  words  of  Christ.  An  evening  or 
two  before  his  departure  he  asked  ^.  Beane,  mdio  was  sitting  wdtk  him«' to 
vead  a  portion  of  Scripture.  On  being  asked  what  $&rtiatt  he  would  lifae,  he 
said  the  fourteenth  of  John'js  Gosx>eL  He  then  .asked  Mr.  P-eame  to  pv^^ 
with  him.  In  the  prayer  he  appeared  folly  to  join,  as  in  the  Amen,  ttb  the 
close.    He  was  not  able  to  speak  much  afterwards. 

^'TBb  disposition  was  amiable,  and  peculiarly  adapted  to  interest  the 
feelings  and  gain  the  confidence  of  children ;  and  we  all  feel  deeply  the  loss 
Which  iSke  Missien  has  sustained  l:>y  his  removal,  and  the  absence  ofhis  peace- 
M  afMt  and  sincere  friendship,  from  our  reduced  number ;  we  beHeve  also 
that  our  grief  was  truly  and  escteneivdy  shaired  %y  tihe  children  he  had 
inetmeted.    Eariy  in  his  ilfatess  the  Queen  sent  two  offfloers  to  inquire  how 
he  was,  having  been  made  acquainted  with  his  illness  by  the  reports  widoh 
were  conveyed  to  her  of  the  lamentations  of  the  children.    He  was  indus- 
triona,  persevering,  and  deified  to  his  truly  impertaoit  woxk,  foad  was  not 
only  beloved  by  his  brethren,  but  i^epectod  as  a  £uthfol  and  «iffeotionate 
toacher  by  the  community  in  general,  while  he  was  regarded  with  personal 
estoem  by  some  of  the  highest  nobles  in  iJie  country.    We  desire  to  bow  witili 
profound  aubmiseion  beneath  the  stroke  of  the  Divine  hand,  which  has  fatten 
heavily  upon  xra,  and  upon  the  Jiiesiim  in  its  present  inierestbig  stato.    It  is 
mysterious  to  us  that  the  labours  of  our  departed  brother  in  a  department  of 
effort  at  all  times  important,  but  especially  so  here  at  present,  should  have 
been  so  suddenly  and  unexpectedly  terminated.    We  do  aot  repine:   we 
believe  that  He  who  holdeth  our  souls  in  lijfe  doeth  all  things  well,  and  is 
able,  though  we  see  not  how,  to  make  even  Idns  affliotive  removal  torn  out  to 
the  furtherance  of  the  Gospel  in  Madagascar.    The  reanains  of  our  dear 
brother  were,  on  the  moniing  of  the  7th  inst,  depooted  by  the  aide  of  the 
graves  of  Mr.  Hastie,  Messrs.  Hovendon,  Eowlands,  Ty^rman,  and  others.**

*'  To-daj  we  conveyed  our  departed  friend  to  his  last  rest,  and  at  half-past 
seven  had  assembled  at  the  honse  oocupied  by  him,  so  as  to  be  rea^y  to  start 
at  eight  o'clock.  Besides  the  missionaries,  two  nephews  of  Mr.  Labotrde 
joined,  together  with  a  great  number  of  native  Ohristians  and  the  School 
children,  to  pay  their  last  req^ects  to  onr  esteemed  and  beloved  brother;  and 
when  all  were  together  in  the  school-room«  a  Malagasy  hymn  having  been 
sung,  Mr.  Pearse  read  a  portion  of  Scripture,  and  I  prayed  in  "BSigliali^  after 
whioh  the  procession  marched  slowly  down  to  the  burial-ground.  At  the 
grave  an  English  hymn  was  sung,  Mr.  Ellis  addressed  us  in  Sngliah,  and 
Mr.  Toy  prayed;  then  one  of  the  preachers  from  Analakely,  with  which 
churdi  Mr.  Stagg  had  been  associated,  addressed  a  few  words  to  the  natives 
aad  prayed,  and  thus  the  sad  ceremony  concluded." 


DEATH  OF  MHS.  KIOE  OF  BAITGALOEE,  EAST  DTOIES. 

The  tabject  of  this  notiee,  with  her  husband,  ^  Ber.  Behxaicin  Hiob, 
embuked  for  India  in  the  year  18J^.  Diey  were  appointed  to  the  important 
station  of  Bavoaloxx,  where,  in  oonjiuMiion  with  *Uie  o^ier  monbers  of  the 
Mission,  Mrs.  Bice  prosecuted  her  labonrs,  more  especially  in  the  depart- 
ment of  female  education,  wilSi  exemplary  devotion  and  pereeverance,  nntH 
the  period  of  her  lamented  decttti,  which  happened  on  the  llth  March,  ult. 
Blessed  is  the  death  of  the  righteous ;  and  although  the  surviving  family  of 
our  excellent  Mend  may  long  deplore  the  loss  of  one  so  justly  beloved, 
they  can  cherish  the  uDhesitating  and  joyful  assurance  that  ^eir  loss  has 
proved  her  unspeakable  gain. 

The  following  brief  memorial  of  Mrs.  Bice  has  been  drawn  up  by  her 
husband : — 

^Mrs.  Bioe  was  bom  at  Wedimry,  in  Wihshire,  March  IS,  1807.  With 
her  early  history  I  am  not  pacrtienkrly  aoquainted,  except  that  I  ha^e  heard 
that  in  childhood  she  was  chanicterized  by  the  same  quiet,  retiring  diapoeidotfi, 
which  distinguished  her  through  Hie.  She  was  blessed  wit&  a  angularly 
pkms  and  exemj^ary  mo<;her,  tar  whom  she  ever  cherished  the  deepest  affeo* 
tiea,  and  who  entered  iaito  her  rait  at  a  very  advanced  age  (eighty  •four,  I 
b^eve),  on  the  llth  March,  1868,  exactly  cne  year  before  her  lametnted 
daughter.  Through  the  influence  exerted  upon  her  mind  by  this  exoellont 
woman,  she  was  early  led  to  dedicate  her  heart  to  the  Lord. 

When  I  first  became  acquainted  with  her  she  was  a  very  active  member  of 
the  Church  then  under  the  pastoral  care  of  the  Bev.  Thomas  Lewis,  Union 
Ohapel,  Islington.  Not  conteKtt  with  seeking  only  her  own  sooTs  salvatioii, 
she  laboured  in  the  Sunday  School,  and  by  tract  distribution,  and  the  visita- 
tion of  the  ignorant,  to  boring  others  unto  God.  The  state  of  the  heathen  aieo 
ezdted  her  oompaasion.    It  was  not,  therefore,  simply  as  a  matter  of  doty, 


216  lOSmONARY  MAGAZINE 

from  her  alliance  with  a  miBsionary,  but  as  a  matter  of  choice,  that  ehe  pre- 
pared to  enter  upon  the  work  of  Christ  in  this  dark  land. 

**  During  our  voyage  to  this  country  in  the  latter  end  of  1836,  although 
suffering  much  from  sea-sickness,  she  prosecuted  the  study  of  Ganarese  almost 
daily,  with  the  assistance  of  a  missionary  on  board  who  was  acquainted  with 
the  language.  The  same  course  was  continued  with  a  Moonshee,  a^r  our 
arriyal  at  Bangalore.  Although  these  studies  were  soon  interrupted  by  the 
care  of  a  young  family,  yet  they  were  resumed  from  time  to  time  as  leisure 
and  strength  permitted.  The  result  was,  that  she  had  a  very  fair  knowledge 
of  the  language,  could  read  and  write  it  without  difficulty,  and  could  under- 
stand and  profit  by  Ganarese  preaching. 

"  During  the  whole  period  of  our  reddence  in  India,  now  upwards  of  twenty- 
seven  years,  my  dear  wife  laboured  to  the  utmost  of  her  strength  in  promotmg 
the  good  of  the  females  of  this  country ;  and,  had  health  and  domestic  duties 
permitted,  it  was  in  her  heart  to  have  done  much  more.  Her  attention  was 
principally  directed  to  the  Grirls'  Boarding  School,  in  which  many  have  been 
trained  who  are  now  intelligent  Ghristian  wives  and  mothers  able  to  instruct 
their  own  children,  and  in  some  instances  to  assist  in  the  native  female 
schools.  There  are,  at  present,  twenty-eight  girls  in  the  Boarding  School,  six 
of  whom  were  last  year  admitted  to  the  Ghiuch,  the  fruit,  to  a  large  extent,  of 
the  salutary  influence,  and  Bible  Glass  instruction,  of  her  whose  loss  we  now 
mourn.  In  addition  to  the  immediate  care  of  the  girls,  a  correspondence, 
which  often  made  heavy  demands  upon  time  and  strength,  had  to  be  kept  up 
with  friends  in  England  who  contribute  for  the  support  of  the  school.  This 
correspondence  was  usefrd  in  keeping  alive  missionary  feeling  in  various 
circles,  and  in  maintaining  interest  in  female  education  iu  India. 

"  My  beloved  wife  had  long  been  suffering  from  symptoms  of  asthma,  and 
from  great  debility  of  constitution.  Ghange  of  air  was  recommended,  and 
might  have  been  attended  with  benefit,  but  circumstances  were  not  fiEivourable 
to  her  adopting  this  course  at  that  time.  A  residence  on  the  hills  had  been 
determined  on,  and  preparations  were  in  progress  for  her  departure,  when  our 
Heavenly  Father,  in  His  all- wise  and  gracious  providence,  saw  fit  to  lay  His 
hand  upon  her  and  say, '  Gome  up  hither.' 

**  Throughout  her  illness,  and  especially  towards  the  close,  her  sufferings 
were  distressingly  great,  but  no  murmur  ever  escaped  her  lips :  once  only 
she  wrung  her  hands  in  anguish,  and  cried,  '  O  my  Father !' 

**  The  day  before  her  removal  she  gave  utterance  to  her  feelings  in  such 
brief  expressions  as  her  pain  and  weakness  would  allow,  and  particularly  ex- 
pressed to  me  her  great  thankfulness  that  she  could  think  of  all  her  dear 
duldren  as  walking  in  the  ways  of  the  Lord.  '  For  this,'  she  said,  '  I  have 
prayed  and  laboured,  and  God  has  given  me  my  heart's  desire.'  She  spoke 
of  the  great  mercies  which  we  had  received  at  the  Lord's  hands,  through  a 
long  series  of  years,  and  said, '  Do  not  grieve :  all  is  well.  My  dear,  dear 
husband,  the  Lord  support  and  comfort  you.  We  shall  all  meet  again.  It 
will  not  be  long.'  She  referred  to  each  of  her  absent  children  by  name,  and 
said,  'The  Lord  preserve  them.  Tell  them  to  trust  in  Him.'  *I  have 
trusted  the  Lord  from  fmy  childhood,  and  He  will  not  forsake  me  now.'  '  I 
have  been  an  unprofitable  servant.'     '  A  guilty,  weak,  and  helpless  worm.

on  Thy  kind  arms  I  fall.'  At  my  request,  our  Mend  Dr.  Brett  (for  whose 
xmremitting  attention  and  kindness  1  shall  ever  feel  deeply  grateful)  offered 
prayer  at  her  bed-side,  commending  herself  and  her  family  to  the  grace  and 
power  of  the  Lord  Jesus ;  a  prayer  which  greafcly  refreshed  all  our  spirits, 
and  at  the  dose  of  which  my  dear  wife  responded  a  hearty  '  Amen/  thank- 
ing him  also  for  all  the  solicitude  he  had  shown  on  her  behalf.  At  her  own 
request,  our  brother  Mr.  Sewell  afterwards  came  and  prayed  with  her. 

"  Once  or  twice,  when  expressing  my  deep  sorrow  at  witnessing  her  suffer- 
ings, she  said, '  Oh,  I  cannot  tell  you  what  I  feel :  it  is  such  a  struggle !'  But 
relief  was  mercifially  afforded  in  this  respect  some  few  hours  before  her  death, 
and  she  sunk  at  last  quietly  and  gently,  literally  &lling  asleep  in  Jesus,  March 
11th,  1864.  A  little  while  before  her  departure,  I  whispered  in  her  ear, 
'  Do  you  know  me  P'  She  said  '  Yes.'  I  added,  '  Do  you  feel  peaceful  and 
happy  P    She  replied, '  Yes,'  and  soon  after  became  quite  insensible. 

"  Blessed  words !  words  not  the  utterance  alone  of  dying  lips,  but  confirmed 
by  the  whole  course  of  life  :  '  Peaceful  and  happy;'  and  that  peace  and  hap- 
piness springing  from  Jesus,  the  Gk>d-man,  the  Redeemer  of  the  lost,  the 
conqueror  of  death,  the  Lord  of  life  and  glory.  Best,  beloved  one,  in  the 
bosom  of  Emmanuel.  In  His  presence  there  is  fulness  of  joy :  at  His  right 
hand  there  are  pleasures  for  evermore. 

**  The  mortal  remains  of  the  departed  were  followed  to  the  tomb,  March 
12tii,  by  a  large  number  of  friends,  both  European  and  native ;  and  many  a 
tear  was  shed  over  the  grave,  especially  by  the  native  girls  and  females  of 
the  Mission,  whom  she  had  loved  with  a  mother's  love,  and  for  whose  present 
and  everlasting  wel&re  she  had  ever  cheerfully  toiled.  Her  loss  to  her 
family,  and  to  the  Mission,  is  great.  But  though  His  faithful  servants  die, 
J^ovah  lives.  He  will  bring  light  out  of  darkness,  and  joy  out  of  sorrow,  to 
the  glory  of  His  own  holy  name. 

"The  solemn  event  was  improved  to  a  numerous  congregation  in  the 
Mission  Chapel,  by  the  Bev.  J.  Sewell,  March  20th,  from  the  text,  Luke  viii.  52, 
'  l^e  is  not  dead,  but  sleepeth.' " 


DEATH  OP  MBS.  BAYLIS,  OF  NEYOOB,  SOUTH  TRAVANCOBE. 

The  third  instance  of  mortality  in  the  Mission  families  which  we  have  to 
record,  is  that  of  Mrs.  Baylis,  the  wife  of  the  Bey.  F.  Batlis,  of  Neyoor, 
South  Travancore.  On  leaving  England  in  the  year  1850,  Mr.  and  Mrs. 
Baylis  were  in  the  first  instance  stationed  at  Madras,  but  about  three  years 
afterwards  they  removed  to  Keyoor,  where,  so  long  as  health  and  strength 
permitted,  Mrs.  B.  approved  herself  an  earnest  and  loving  helpmate  to 
her  husband  in  each  department  of  Christian  effort,  and  thereby  acquired  the 
aflfectionate  esteem  of  all  about  her.  After  a  period  of  much  bodily  suffering 
she  entered  into  the  joy  of  her  Lord  on  the  25th  February,  ult. 

The  following  narrative  of  the  last  illness  and  death  of  Mrs.  Baylis  has 
been  furnished  by  the  Bev.  John  Lowe,  Medical  Missionary.

'<  March  5ih,  1864. 

"My  dsab  De.  Tidman,— Since  last  mail  left  we  have  been  called  to 
mourn  the  loss  of  one  greatly  beloved  by  the  people,  and  very  deax  to  all  the 
members  of  onr  Mission  circle. 

"  From  the  letter  Mr.  BayUa  fcnrwarded,  vid  MarseiUee^  about  a  fortni^t 
Ago,  yon  will  be  somewhat  prepared  to  receive  the  sad  intelligence  <^  the^ 
death  of  his  beloved  wife.  Calmly  and  peaeefully  she  'fell  asle^  in  Jesus' 
on  the  morning  of  Thursday,  Febmary  25th,  leaving  behind  a  sweet  testimony 
to  the  power  of  Divine  grace  and  the  preoioiisness  and  all-sufieienoy  of  Imt 
adorable  Savioxir. 

''  Since  Mrs.  BayHs  returned  firom  "Ragland  at  the  ck«e  of  1861  she'  has 
never  enjoyed  good  health,  though  in  general  able  to  engage  more  or  less  im 
the  work  upon  which  her  heart  was  set.  At  intervals  of  three  or  four  months 
she  was  seized  with  painM  paroxysms  of  the  disease  which  at  kst^has  piroved 
fatal  Almost  from  the  c<»nmencement  <^  her  last  attack  the  symptonM 
were  such  as  to  lead  me  to  entertain  little  or  »o  hope  of  her  reoovecy.  Wben 
I  told  her  my  fears  she  received  the  annooneament  with  great  calmness  and 
composure,  assuring  us  then,  as  she  frequently  did  on  subsequent  ooeasMNu* 
that  she  was  ready  to  depart,  and  expressed  the  hoip^,  that  if  it  yma  her 
Heavenly  Father's  wiU,  she  might  have  a  speedy  releaee  from  her  severe 
sn£Eerings.  She  manifested  great  patience  and  resignaAioa  throoghoist  ker 
painful  illness :  we  never  heard  a  murmur  escape  her  lips. 

"  At  intervals,  when  somewhat  free  frompadn,  she  instructed  Mrs.  Lowe  ae 
to  the  management  of  the  boea'ding-Bchoole  sod  other  matters  she  wished  mj 
dear  wife  to  attend  to  after  her  deaili. 

**  During  the  last  few  days  <^her  Hie  the  d^yimg  mother's  heart  was  at  times 
drawn  out  in  prayerful  yearning  solicitude  for  the  wdfure  of  her  darling  only 
child  in  England.  Her  faith  in  Ohrist  was  unfiEdtering :  no  cloods  were  per- 
mitted even  for  a  mom^it  to  obscure  her  spiritual  vision.  It  was  indeed  no 
small  privilege  to  minister  to  the  comfort  of  our  beloved  friend,  to  sit  bj 
the  couch  of  sickness,  and  hear  her  dying  testimony  to  the  faithfulness  of  her 
Saviour  Qod  whom  she  loved  and  served. 

"And  certainly  never  was  a  more  powerftd  sermon  preached  im  India tikaa 
was  preached  by  the  dying  missionary's  wife  to  the  agents  and  others  who 
came  to  bid  her  fitrewell  the  Sabbath  before  her  death.  At  her  own  request 
they  were  admitted  to  the  chamber  of  sickness,  so  soon,  alas !  to  be  ihe 
chamber  of  death ;  and  as  one  after  another  came  forward,  weeping  tears  of 
sorrow,  and  kissed  the  wasted  hand  of  their  loving  and  bdK)ved  friend  and 
teacher,  she  was  enabled  to  address  a  few  words  of  eneearagemeKt  and 
counsel  to  each«  which  time,  we  trust,  wiU  never  efface  from  their  memories* 

"  On  Sabbath  evening  she  thought  her  end  was  nearer  than  it  really  was ; 
and,  in  prospect  of  soon  leaving  the  dear  children  in  the  school,  for  whoee 
salvation  she  had  long  laboured  and  prayed,  she  asked  me  to  go  and  deliver 
her  dying  message  to  them.  '  Tell  them,'  she  said, '  to  remember  the  precious 
truths  they  have  learned :  tell  them  to  come  to  Jesus  now,  to  seek  the  loving 
Saviour  till  they  find  Him.'  L^OOQl

However,  that  she  was  sinking  fast;  towards  evening  she  graduallj  became

beloved  sister  breathed  her  last. 

"  By  daybreak  the  sad  news  had  spread  far  and  wide,  and  hundreds  from 
this  and  neighbouring  districts  came  to  Neyoor  to  testify  their  love  and 
affection  for  the  dear  departed,  and  to  look  upon  the  mortjil  -remainB  of  one 
who  in  her  lifetime  was  so  deservedly  beloved  by  all.  Many 'tears  were  shed, 
and  great  was  the  mourning  and  lamentation ;  for  all  felt  that  they  had  lost 
one  who  had  been  as  a  mother  to  them. 

"  The  funeral  to^k  place  the  same  afternoon.  I  conducted  the  services  in 
the  chapel  and  at  the  grave ;  and,  surrounded  by  a  weeping  and  mourning 
multihide,  the  remains  of  our  beloved  one  were  laid  in  the  silent  grave, '  in  sure 
and  oertaia  hope  of  the  resnirection  to  eternal  Hfe.' 

"  On  the  Sabbath  following  great  numbers  were  present  at  the  deeply 
scAemn  services  held  at  the  Home  Station.  Mr.  C.  Yesudian,  our  Assistant 
Missionary,  preached  in  the  morning,  the  Bev.  J.  Buthie  in  the  forenoon,  and 
I  in  the  ewrening.  May  the  deep  impressions  then  produced  prove  kusting, 
and  this  sad  event,  which  has  cast  a  gloom  over  our^  Missions,  be  richly 
sanctified  to  all. 

•*  With  the  exception  of  one  year  spent  in  England  for  the  restoration  of 
health,  Mrs.  Baylis  has  enjoyed  the  privilege  of  labouring  in  India  along  with 
her  dear  husband,  my  esteemed  colleague,  for  nearly  thirteen  years.  In  much 
weakBeseand  bodily  suffering,  bat  wii^  a  willing  heart,  she  spent  her  strength  in 
zealous  efforts  for  the  good  of  the  people  generally,  and  espedaUy  among  the 
women  and  children  in  thia  important  and  extensive  district ;  and,  aa  the  result 
of  her  labours,  many  young  wives  and  mothers  in  tfads  and  other  districts^ 
who  were  trained  and  educated  in  the  boarding-school  which  she  established 
aad  earned  on  so  Bnccessfnlly  till  her  death,  are  now  occupying  spheres  of 
iaflnence  and  usefolness  in  our  Missions,  and  upwards  of  forty  intelligent 
girls  are  at  present  in  the  school,  receiving  a  good  education  and  prepajring 
for  future  service.  Her  efforts,  too,  on  behalf  of  the  poor  in  the  district  were 
unremitting.  The  last  service,  indeed,  which  she  rendered  to  the  Mission,  was 
the  preparation  of  an  appeal  on  behalf  of  the  Dorcas  Society,  copiea  of  which 
she  issued  to  all  the  agents,  to  be  read  to  their  respective  congregati<»i8. 

'^  As  it  is  said  of  Dorcas,  so  may  it  be  said  concerning  the  deair  departed, 
'This  woman  was  full  of  good  works  and  almsdeeds  which  she  did.'  The 
missionaries  and  their  wives  have  lost  a  kind,  sympathizing  friend,  and  a 
valued  and  judicious  counsellor ;  our  dear  people  mourn,  as  they  themselves 
say,  *  the  loss  of  their  mother ;'  and  the  heart  of  the  bereaved  husband  iff 
filled  with  sorrow.  His  sorrow  is  shared  by  a  loving  and  sympathizing  flock, 
Whoee  prayers  have  bee»  heard  and  answered  in  their  beloved  pastor's  sweet 
experience.  The  Lord  is  gp*aciaasly  comforting  and  sustaining  his  dear 
servant  in  this  season  of  darkness  and  sorrow.  Mr.  Baylis  has  gone  to 
Mootam,  to  spend  a  fortnight  or  three  weeks,  in  the  h<^>e  that  the  change  may 
do  ham  good :  he  has  not  been  enjoying  good  health  for  some  time  past.  He

upon  promised  aid,  in  the  strength  of  the  Lord,  she  desires  to  enter  upon  the 
work  now  devolving  upon  her ;  and  our  earnest  prayer  is,  that  her  efforts

may  be  as  abundantly  blessed  as  were  those  of  our  d^arted  sister.

DEATH  OF  MRS.  THOMAS,  OF  SHANGHAJ&,  CHINA. 

In  the  two  instances  last  recorded,  our  departed  fiiends  had  laboured  for 
years  among  the  heathen;  but,  in  the  allwise  yet  inscrutable  providence 
of  God,  Mrs.  Thomas,  with  her  husband  the  Rev.  R.  J.  Thomas,  had  only 
very  recentiy  arrived  in  Shanghae,  their  appointed  sphere  of  labour  in 
China,  when,  after  a  brief  illness,  she  entered  upon  her  rest  and  reward  on 
the  24th  March,  ult.  Our  departed  friend  left  England  with  a  he&t  fall  of 
love  and  compassion  for  the  heathen,  and  though  denied  the  privilege  of 
carrying  out  her  benevolent  object,  it  will  console  her  bereaved  husband  to 
reflect  that  she  now  serves  God  in  His  temple  above,  without  alloy,  and 
without  end. 

The  Rbv.  W.  Muiehbad,  m  a  letter  dated  Shanghae,  24th  March,  makes 
the  following  announcement : — 

"  In  the  absence  of  Mr.  Thomas,  at  Hankow,  I  beg  to  communicate  to  you 
the  sad  intelligence  of  his  dear  wife's  death.  It  took  place  this  morning  at 
one  o'clock,  after  a  very  few  days*  illness.  Her  end  was  peace ;  and  at  times, 
when  she  was  sufficiently  conscious,  she  gave  pleasing  testimony  of  her  feitb 
in  the  Lord  Jesus,  and  His  preciousness  to  her  in  a  dying  hour.  All  that 
could  be  done  by  her  medical  attendant,  Dr.  Henderson,  and  a  few  Christian 
friends,  was  done  for  her  in  the  course  of  her  illness,  and  we  are  now  left  to 
mourn  over  our  loss,  though  it  be  to  her  infinite  gain. 

"  Our  dear  brother  Mr.  Thomas  went  to  Hankow  about  a  fortnight  ago, 
little  apprehending  that  there  was  any  cause  for  anxiety  on  account  of  his 
beloved  wife.  He  is  not  expected  to  return  for  a  week  or  ten  days.  May  God 
help  him  to  bear  the  afflicting  news." 

The  additional  particulars  contained  in  the  subjoined  letter  are  furnished 
by  the  Rev.  R.  J.  Thomas : — 

"  London  Mission, 

'*  Shan^ae,  April  5th,  1864. 

"  My  dsas  Db.  Tidman,— I  little  thought  when  we  left  England  that  the 
first  letter  from  myself  to  you  would  contain  the  mournful  tidings  it  now  falls 
to  my  lot  to  communicate.  My  dear  wife  died  on  the  24th  of  last  month.  The 
event  has  quite  prostrated  me :  it  was  so  utterly  unexpected.  The  voyage 
agreed  uncommonly  well  with  her ;  hitherto  the  climate  of  Shanghae  has  been 
temperate  and  pleasant ;  yet,  immediately  after  landing,  the  pla^^e  did  not 


POR  JULY,  1864.  221 

seem  to  agree  with  my  dear  wife.  I  had  no  fears,  for,  on  the  whole,  she  was 
happy  and  comfortable.  True,  I  had  fears  about  the  hot  weather,  and  the 
11th  of  last  month  took  advantage  of  a  free  passage  to  EEankow  to  arrange,  if 
possible,  that  my  wife  might  spend  the  summer  there.  Mr.  John  was  exceed- 
ingly kind,  and  assured  me  (as  did  others)  that  Hankow  was  far  healthier  than 
Shanghae. 

**  1  returned  as  speedily  as  possible,  without  the  slightest  thought  of  the  sad 
event  that  had  taken  place  in  my  absence. 

"  The  sad  news  met  me  at  Chin-Kong,  communicated  most  kindly  and 
feelingly  by  Dr.  Garth. 

"  While  in  Hankow  I  had  a  letter  from  my  wife — quite  quiet  and  happy  as 
usual — no  wish  to  recall  me — ^no  presentiment.  A  few  days  before  her  death 
she,  it  appears,  was  shocked  by  the  news  of  the  death  of  the  beloved  wife  of 
an  American  Missionary  residing  here.  That  shock  brought  on  the  sad  event, 
which  took  place  on  the  20th  ult.  Afterwards  she  got  on  so  well  that  a  note 
was  sent  to  me  by  a  friend,  telling  me  not  to  be  alarmed  at  all.  However,  I 
had  started  from  Hankow  before  getting  the  note. 

"  Monday  evening  she  began  to  sink ;  Tuesday,  nearly  all  day  was  un- 
conscious ;  towards  evening  Dr.  Henderson,  in  company  with  Dr.  8ibbold,  came, 
and  saw  her  end  was  approaching.  My  dear  wife  sweetly  fell  asleep  in  Jesus 
about  1  o'clock  a.m.,  24th  ult.  She  was  quite  conscious  at  last,  and  her  last 
words  were,  *  Jesus  is  veiy  precious  to  me.' 

"  My  heart  is  well-nigh  broken.  I  must  seek  somewhere  a  complete  change. 
All  that  could  be  done  for  a  sufferer  was  done  for  my  dear  wife.  Mr.  and 
Mrs.  Muirhead  and  Miss  Gkunble  have  earned  my  deepest  gratitude.  I  cannot 
write  any  more :  my  sorrow  bursts  forth  afresh  as  I  go  over  its  details.  I  trust 
to  give  myself  more  completely  than  ever  to  the  noble  work  on  which  I  have 
just  entered,  but  at  present  I  feel  weighed,  borne  down  by  deep  grief 

"I  am  sure  I  have  your  sympathy  and  prayers  that  no  trial,  however 
grievous,  should  separate  me  from  this  glorious  cause,  but  rather  thank  G^od 
for  her  peaceful,  painless  end,  and  say, '  The  Lord  gave,  and  the  Lord  hath 
taken  away ;  blessed  be  the  name  of  the  Lord.' 
"  "With  kindest  regards  to  yourself  and  Mr.  Prout, 

**  I  am,  dear  Dr.  Tidman, 

"  Very  sincerely  yours, 
**Eev.  Db.  Tidmajj."  "B.  Jsbmaik  Thomas.

CHRONICLE. 


MADAGASCAR. 

OuK  letters  from  Madagascar  by  the  last  mail  contain  no  new  information  as 
to  the  state  of  the  Mission,  but  the  intelligence  already  before  the  Mends  of 
the  Society  is  amply  conflrmed  and  extended.  The  new  Memorial  Church 
at  Ambatonakanga  is  progressing;  the  Hospital  is  also  in  the  course  of 
erection ;  and  all  the  places  of  worship  throughout  the  city  are  crowded  every 
Sabbath  with  attentive  congregations,  while  the  Churches  receive  numerous 
accessions  monthly. 

In  several  of  the  villages  of  Imeeiwa  also,  the  Malagasy  Christians  are 
desirous  of  erecting  suitable  places  of  worship,  which  they  do  chiefly  by  their 
own  labour  and  contributions;  but  in  these  self-denying  exertions  they 
deserve  encouragement,  and  greatly  need  the  co-operation  of  British  Christians. 
Mr.  Ellis  makes  a  strong  appeal  for  pecuniary  assistance  to  these  Native 
Brethren  in  their  building  efforts ;  and,  should  any  readers  be  disposed  to  aid 
them  in  their  work  of  faith,  the  Directors  will  be  gratified,  and  the  hands 
of  the  builders  will  be  strengthened  and  their  hearts  cheered. 

The  friends  of  the  Society  will  be  glad  to  learn  that  the  Rev.  "William 
Ellis,  at  the  earnest  request  of  the  Directors,  will  continue  in  Madagascar 
to  aid  the  Mission  by  his  counsels  and  labours  until  the  month  of  June  or 
July  in  the  year  ensuing. 


CHINA. 
PEKING. 

EXTEKSION   OF  HISaiOKART  LABOITB. 

OuB  readers  have  already  received  the  gratifying  statement  that  Ten  Pro- 
testant missionaries  are  now  residing  and  labouring  in  the  capital  of  China. 
It  is  indeed  the  day  of  small  things  :  but  their  labours  are  not  in  any  degree 
restricted  by  the  Government ;  among  the  people  they  are  received  with 
attention  and  kindness ;  and  above  all,  the  labourers  are  rewarded  for  their

toils  by  the  actual  reception  of  conyerts.  Indeed,  it  is  a  remarkable 
feature  of  the  Mission  stations  throughout  China,  that  the  labourers  have 
received  their  first  fruits  at  a  much  earlier  period  than  has  fedXen  to  the  lot  of 
their  brethren  in  India ;  and  it  will  be  seen  from  the  letter  of  thie  Eev. 
Joseph  Eniiors,  which  follows,  that  the  Word  of  the  Lord  has  been  glorified 
in  the  public  profession  of  the  Gospel,  by  several  natives  in  the  city  of  Peking. 

"Peking,  April  15,  1864. 

"  My  deab  6BOTHB&,-^moe  I  last  wrote,  Dr.  and  Mrs.  Dudgeon  have 
anived  here,  and  Dr.  Lockhart  has  left  us.  You  have  heard  that  Dr.  Dudgeon 
passed  the  winter  at  Chefoo.  He  reached  this  place  with  his  wife  and  infiemt 
in  comfort  and  safety,  on  March  29th,  and  was  thus  able  to  spend  a  week  here 
with  his  zealous  and  laborious  predecessor,  Dr.  L.,  who  bade  us  fsurewell  on  the 
5th  of  April,  and  on  whom  we  pray  that  Diviiie  protection  may  attend  on  his 
journey  homeward.  He  has  done  a  good  work  here,  as  is  recognised  in  a 
maiked  maimer  by  his  missionary  brethren,  and  the  whole  of  the  remdent 
foreigii  oommvuty. 

"  At  a  Church  lleataag,  hdd  on  ^e  day  of  Dr.  D.'s  arriral,  and  but  two 
hours  before*  several  inquirers,  desirous  of  baptism,  were  examined,  and  fovr 
among  them  were  then  decided  on  as  suitable  persons  to  receive  the  rita  It 
was  pleasant  that  this  little  gleam  of  prosperity  should  come  to  us  just  before 
our  brother  left. 

"  Three  of  the  four  candidates  are  Manchus,  who  have  offices  in  the  house- 
hold of  the  Prince  of  Corea,  a  Manchu  prince,  whose  ancestor,  at  the  time  of 
the  Tartar  conquest,  received  that  title  for  his  services  in  subjugating  the 
kingdom  of  0<»rea.  One  of  these  men  in  his  leisure  time  has  been  in  the  habit 
of  divining  by  means  of  counters  and  slipe  of  bamboo.  His  imj^ements  of  this 
art  he  has  given  up  to  me,  as  eridence  of  his  smoere  abandonment  of  heathen 
superstition.  I  have  sent  them,  under  the  care  of  Dr.  Lockhart,  to  the  Mis- 
sionary Museum  at  Blomfield  Street. 

'*  These  three  converts  are  the  first  fruits  of  our  evangelistic  efforts  in  the 
western  part  of  this  great  city.  We  began  with  a  small  room  in  the  courtyard 
of  one  of  the  imperial  temples — dedicated  to  the  representative  emperors 
of  the  successive  dynasties  of  China,  and  known  as  the  Ti  wang  miau.  Here 
a  Tientsin  helper  was  placed  to  preach  daily,  and  hold  evening  meetings  for 
prayer.  The  old  Manchu,  baptized  in  the  autumn,  exerted  himself  to  gather 
an  audience  in  this  Uttle  retired  room.  The  three  men  who  have  just  been  re- 
ceived were  part  of  this  little  audience  from  the  first.  After  a  few  weeks  we 
were  able  to  obtain  a  better  house  in  an  adjoining  street;  this  has  been  open 
for  worship  since  the  end  of  January,  and  the  same  inquirers  have  been 
diligent  attendants  at  this  new  preaching-room  since  that  time.  The  congre- 
gation in  fine  weather  numbers  about  sixty,  and  many  are  becoming  desirous 
of  receiving  baptism. 

**  A  hospital  patient,  who  has  heard  the  preaching  of  the  Gk)spel  for  a  year 
and  a  half,  is  the  fourth  convert ;  his  name  is  Wang  pci.  At  first  he  did  not 
hear  with  £edth.  The  text, '  Come  unto  me  all  ye  that  labour  and  are  heavy 
laden,'  struck  his  attention.  He  did  not,  however,  become  resolved  to  obey 
Christ  at  this  time,  though,  being  a  water-carrier,  the  words  'My  yoke  is  easy*

greailj  {leased  and  interested  him.  Coming  to  reside  in  tbe  hospital  three 
months  ago,  he  had  more  frequent  opportunities  of  joining  in  meetings  for 
prayer  and  scriptural  instrMtion.  The  influence  of  one  of  the  older  Christians 
here  was  usefol  to  him.  He  heard  the  narratiye  of  the  giring  of  manna  ex- 
pouBdedy  and  it  ocoorred  to  him  that  if  the  Israelites  were  prorided  for  bj  God 
miraoalouslj  on  the  Sabbath,  without  going  <rat  of  their  tents  to  gather  manna 
on  that  day,  he  might  hope  for  the  same  blessiBg  if  he  eeased  on  the  day 
of  rest  from  the  eorarcise  of  his  eaUing.  He  is  now  living  as  a  keeper  of  the

INDIA. 


TWELVE   DAYS   OF    ITINERAI?T    LABOTER   AMONG   THE 
CHURCHES  m  SOUTH  TEATAN^CORE. 

On  no  field  of  missionary  effort  in  India  can  the  Christian  look  with  more 
interest,  or  with  more  cheering  expectations,  than  on  the  proYinee  of  Tba- 
TANCOBE.  In  this  populous  District  the  missionary  labours  of  our  Society 
hare  been  continued  for  half  a  century;  and,  under  the  Divine  blessing, 
tiie  success  already  realized  has,  for  India,  been  abundant,  and  the  present 
aspect  of  the  Mission,  in  relation  to  the  future,  is  full  of  promise.  The 
field  is  divided  into  sevsn  principal  stations,  viz. :  Nageecoil,  Jakes  Towk, 
Saittisapoobam,  Netoob,  Pabibtchalet,  TREVAnnRinf,  and  Qxtilok;  and  the 
number  of  European  Agents  employed,  including  a  Medical  Missionary,  is  eu/ht. 
They  are  efficiently  aided  in  their  various  labours  by  a  large  body  of  native 
agents.  There  are  about  twenty  thousand  professing  Christians,  and  the 
number  of  Church  Members  is  Jieoxlj  ffteen  hundred. 

Our  Missionary  Brethren  are  accustomed  to  i*isit  the  various  out-stations 
in  their  several  districts,  not  only  for  the  benefit  of  the  !N'ative  Christians 
scattered  through  the  country,  but  also  to  preach  the  Gospel  to  the  heathen ; 
and  the  following  journal  firom  the  Bev.  James  Duthie  eontains  a  very 
interesting  report  of  a  series  of  visitations  which  he  recently  accomplished 
in  company  with  several  efficient  native  labourers. 

"Nagcrcofl,  May  13th,  1864. 

"  Mt  beajk  Db.  Tidman, — I  now  sit  down  to  give  you  some  account  of  a 
tour  of  twelve  days,  lately  made  among  the  Churches  connected  with  our 
Society,  in  South  Travancore.  Joumids  of  the  principal  events  that  happened 
were  kept  by  the  native  brethren  who  accompanied  me,  and  it  is  chiefly  from 
the  memoranda  made  by  them  that  I  have  put  together  the  following  parti- 
enlars,  which  will,  I  hope,  prove  interesting. 

'*  On  the  6th  of  last  month,  in  company  with  Devadasen,  Evangelist,  (T.  M. 
White),  I  left  Nagercoil,  intending  to  visit  as  many  of  the  out-stations  as  I

cotild  reach  within  the  time  at  my  disposal,  preyious  to  the  opening  of  the 
present  session  of  the  seminary,  viz.,  twelve  or  thirteen  days.  The  heat  at 
this  season  of  the  year  is  so  great  that  I  felt  s<Hne  rehnctanoe  to  set  out ;  bat 
although  it  was  necessary  to  expose  ourselves  a  good  deal,  and  the  weather 
at  times  felt  oppressively  hot,  we  suffered  nothing  beyond  temporaiy  incon- 
venience, and  now  that  the  journey  is  over,  we  look  back  with  much  satiafac- 
tion  to  what  we  saw  and  did  during  these  twelve  days. 

"  On  the  evening  of  the  6th  oi  April  we  arrived,  after  a  ride  of  twelve 
miles,  at  a  congregation  belonging  to  the  Neyoor  District,  situated  on  the  high 
road  leading  to  Trevandrum.  Here  we  found  a  village,  the  inhabitants  of  whidi 
are  mostly  Christians ;  and  as  soon  as  the  object  of  our  visit  became  known, 
the  gong,  (we  have  only  two  bells  in  the  whole  of  our  South  Travancore 
Mission,)  was  brought  out  and  hung  upon  a  tree  by  the  road-side,  at  the 
sound  of  which  the  people  began  to  assemble.  As  we  sat  in  the  open  air,  the 
quiet  of  the  evening  made  another  gong  in  the  distance  to  be  distinctly 
heard,  and  it  was  pleasant  to  reflect  that  ihe  gladsome  sound  was  being  pro- 
longed, though  we  could  not  hear  it,  for  through  the  palmyra  forests, 
reminding  the  worshippers  of  the  true  €rod  that  the  houi*  of  evening  prayer 
had  arrived.  At  this  place  we  preached  to  about  fOrtj  people,  all  of  whom 
gave  great  heed,  while  the  evangelist  first,  and  myself  afterwards,  spoke  on 
the  necessity  of  choosing  that  better  part  which  shall  not  be  taken  away 
from  us. 

"  On  the  following  morning  set  out  to  preach  in  Palpanapuram,  one  of  the 
largest  heathen  towns  in  Travancore.  Arriving  here,  we  took  up  our  position 
in  one  of  the  streets,  and  soon  a  crowd  gathered  round. 

SALE  OF  TRACTS. 

"  During  the  morning  we  preached  in  five  different  parts  of  the  town,  and 
met  with  very  little  opposition.  A  few  listened  with  much  attention,  and 
bought  some  of  our  tracts.  Up  to  this  time  our  plan  has  been  to  give  away 
our  tracts  free ;  but  now,  in  accordance  with  a  resolution  passed  by  the  local 
Tract  Society,  none  are  given  gratis  excepting  handbills  or  very  small  tracts 
of  about  four  pages.  It  was  new  to  the  people  to  hear  that  they  must  give  a 
small  price  for  books,  which  formerly  all  received  who  showed  a  desire  to 
read  them,  and  it  became  necessary  to  offer  some  explanation  which  all  would 
readily  understand.  This  was  furnished  by  the  evangelist,  as  follows :  '  Not 
long  ago,'  said  he, '  when  myself  and  a  number  of  catechists  attended  a  large 
heathen  festival  for  the  purpose  of  preaching  there,  a  lad  came  up  anxiously 
asking  for  a  book,  which  I  gave  him.  Afterwards  he  went  in  search  of  a 
catechist  in  another  part  of  the  town,  who  also  gave  him  a  book;  then 
another  and  another  gave  him  books,  till  at  last,  coming  to  know  that  he  was 
a  rogue,  we  laid  hold  of  him,  and  found  no  less  than  eighteen  books  care- 
fully concealed  imder  his  cloth.'  It  was  easy  from  this  fact  to  show  the 
necessity  of  selling  tracts  at  a  smaU  price,  so  small  as  to  be  within  the  reach 
of  the  poorest,  and  yet  just  sufficient  to  prevent  their  falling  into  the  hands 
of  any  but  those  really  desirous  of  becoming  acquainted  with  their  contents. 
After  this  a  few  came  forward  and  bought  some  tracts;  but  the  heat  becoming 
very  great,  we  were  obliged  to  leave,  ^me,  more  anxious  than  others  to 
hear  our  words,  followed  us  for  some  distance,  and  a  few  more  tracts  were  sold. 


FOE  ATJGIJST,    1864. 
▲N  BABITEST  NATIYS  CHKI8TIAK. 

"  In  the  forenoon  of  the  day  following  we  preached  at  a  village  called 
Mulaehy,  where  there  is  a  neat  commodions  chapel,  and  a  flourishing  congre- 
gation. Here  we  were  joined  bj  Nanaharanam,  Erangelist,  and  Nathaniel, 
Inspector  of  Schools,  kmdlj  sent  by  the  brethren  at  Neyoor,  to  accompany 
ns  in  oar  tour.  After  the  serrioe  was  over,  one  of  the  members  of  the  Church 
here,  a  very  earnest  Christian,  invited  iis  to  go  to  his  house,  where  we  hdd  a 
short  service  with  his  fsunily  and  some  neighbours,  whom  he  called  in  to  meet 
ua.  Would  that  all  our  South  Travanoore  Christians  gave  like  evidence  with 
this  man  of  having  profited  by  the  Word  preached !  I  learned  that  his 
custom  is  to  assemble  his  fEunily  and  nei^bours  three  times  a  day  for  the 
worship  of  God,  in  a  smaU  prayer-house,  erected  specially  for  this  purpose  by 
himself.  One  day  a  week  he  devotee  to  preaching  to  the  heathen  round 
about ;  and,  being  a  man  in  good  worldly  circumstances,  and  held  in  general 
estean,  his  influence  is  powerful  for  good.  I  could  not  help  feeling,  when 
under  his  humble  roof,  that  even  here,  in  the  midst  of  so  many  heathens,  God 
has  a  pec^^  to  serve  Him  and  show  forth  His  praise. 

OUT-DOOB  PBEACHING  IN  THE  EVENING. 

"  In  the  evening  we  reached  another  village,  not  very  far  distant,  where,  on 
account  of  the  heat,  we  preferred  holding  a  meeting  in  the  open  air.  Mats 
were  soon  spread  on  the  ground,  and  lanterns  suspended  from  the  branches 
of  the  village  tree,  below  which  we  sat  down  and  spoke  on  the  parable  of  the 
rich  man  and  Lazarus.  Myself  and  both  the  evangelists  addressed  the 
meeting,  which,  though  rather  prolonged,  was  felt  by  all  present  to  be  a 
solemn  one.  Allusion  was  made  by  one  of  the  speakers  to  the  recent  death 
of  Mrs.  Baylis,  of  Neyoor,  which  told  powerfully,  especially  upon  some  of  the 
women  present. 

"Early  in  the  morning  of  the  8th  we  set  out  for  Attooe,  also  in  the 
N^oor  district,  preaching  to  the  people  on  the  way,  as  opportunity  offered. 
Here  we  were  fortunate  enough  to  meet  the  catechists  in  that  part  of  the 
Mission,  who  had  assembled  to  attend  to  matters  relating  to  the  work  of  the 
district.  An  evangelist  is  stationed  at  this  place,  whose  duty  it  is  to  take  a 
general  oversight  of  the  congregations  in  that  remote  part  of  the  district. 
After  breakfast  I  spoke  to  the  catechists  from  1  John  v.  4,  on  the  necessity 
of  faith  in  all  who  would  engage  aright  in  the  Lord's  work. 

8TBONOHOLD  OF  II>OIJLTBT. 

"  About  a  mile  from  this  place  is  one  of  the  strongholds  of  Satan  in  Tra- 
vanoore, named  Tiruvataru  on  the  banks  of  the  Tamrapami  river.  We  all 
felt  desirous  to  preach  there,  and  accordingly  set  out  as  early  in  the  afternoon 
as  the  heat  would  permit.  On  approaching  the  place,  it  soon  became  appa- 
rent that  it  was  one  of  more  than  ordinary  interest ;  the  magnificent  flight  of 
granite  steps  leading  from  the  temple  to  the  river,  and  the  imusually  imposing 
appearance  of  the  buildings  connected  therewith,  all  bespoke  its  importance 
as  a  sacred  Hindoo  resort.  A  narrow  street,  leading  past  a  long  range  of 
buildings,  brought  us  to  what  appeared  a  suitable  place  for  beg^inning  our 
work.  Great  numbers  of  people  were  lounging  about,  most  of  them 
Brahmins ;  and  we  very  soon  had  a  large  audience,  wondering  much,  no

doubt,  what  it  all  meant,  and  for  wbrnt  inteat  we  liad  eoiue.  A  handbill,  in 
Malayalim  (the  language  in  use  in  those  parte),  was  first  read,  and  explana- 
tions giyen  as  the  reading  w^nt  on ;  but  the  istennptioBs  soon  became  so 
frequent,  and  the  tslk  so  boistetotis,  despite  oior  besi  efforts  to  eonciliaie,  by 
our  quiet  manner  and  mode  of  address,  that  we  doubted  whereosto  the  Matter 
would  grow.  It  became  yery  apparent,  after  a  short  tame,  that  their  oljeot 
was  to  drive  us  out  of  the  place ;  £or  the  hooting  and  ^e  shouting  that  broke 
forth  from  every  side  made  it  unpossible  for  us  eren  to  hear  our  own  voioes. 
Then  ihey  ordered  us  expressly  to  be  off;  to  whi<^  we  made  reply,  quietly  but 
firmly,  that  we  had  no  intention  of  doing  so ;  but  if  they  persisted  in  tMAtmg 
us  with  so  much  disrespect  we  shonld  go  a  little  further  into  the  town,  where 
we  mi^t  uheet  with  a  better  reception  from  oihers.  This  we  said,  wdi  knowmg, 
or  fearing  at  least,  that  it  would  not  be  so;  but,  haying  begun,  we  felt  it  most 
neceasaty  to  go  ahont  matters  with  the  greatest  coolness,  as  if  nothing  parti- 
cular were  taking  place.  It  never  does  to  betray  fear,  or  to  run  away  from  a 
Hindoo  mob.  Aeoordingly,  we  mored  off  quietiy,  bat  not  in  ihe  directioii 
they  anticipated,  for,  instead  of  making  towards  the  oatskirts,  we  went  close 
up  to  the  bazar ;  but,  as  before,  the  shouting,  the  clapping  of  hands,  the 
cries  of,  *  Be  off!  be  off!'  *  You  have  no  business  here !'  *  We  want  none  of  your 
talk  !*  <&c.,  made  us  despair  of  being  able  to  prosecute  our  work  in  peace.  For 
once  we  realized,  in  some  measure,  wl^at  it  is  to  be  *  in  peiils  among  the 
heathen,'  in  a  remote  out  of  the  way  part  of  the  country.  After  this  had  been 
going  on  for  some  time,  a  few  men  of  respectable  appearance  came  up,  and, 
as  they  showed  no  disposition  to  join  with  the  *  fellows  of  the  baser  sort,'  I 
beckoned  to  one  of  them,  and  asked  if  he  did  not  feel  ashamed  to  see  his 
townsmen  behaving  to  strangers  with  so  much  rudeness  and  incivility.  I 
explained  to  him  the  object  of  our  visit,  and  added  that  I  felt  surprised  to  see 
the  inhabitants  of  a  large  city  like  this,  less  polite  in  their  manners  than 
many  in  other  places  of  far  less  note  and  celebrity.  This  seemed  to  touch 
the  right  chord ;  for;  though  no  reply  was  made  to  us,  he  turned  round  to  the 
crowd  and  signified  his  displeasure  with  their  proceedings  and  conduct.  The 
uproar  became  sensibly  less  after  this  reproof,  and  this  man  and  a  few  others 
stood  round  about  and  listened  patiently  for  a  short  time,  to  the  great 
vexation  and  disappointment  of  the  mob.  After  this  we  moved  off  quietly, 
still  followed  by  a  great  crowd ;  for  by  this  time  half  the  people  of  the  town 
had  come  together  to  know  what  all  the  noise  and  confusion  meant.  I  think 
I  have  never  before  encountered  more  determined  opposition  than  we  met 
from  the  Brshmins  and  other  high«>caste  people  in  this  place.  Nevertheless, 
we  were  not  without  some  success  and  encouragement  erven  here ;  for  a  man 
of  reputation  loir  wisdom,  and  who  did  not  join  in  the  outcry  made  against 
us,  followed  us  out  of  the  town,  hearing  our  words,  and  before  taking  leave 
purdiasad  a  book. 

CONaBSGATION  OF  MOHAMMKT)ANS. 

*'  Early  the  following  morning  we  set  out  to  one  of  the  remotest  ccmgrega- 
tions  in  the  Neyoor  district,  quite  among  the  dense  jungle,  at  the  foot  of  the 
mountains.  Our  coming  was  known  to  the  Christians  there  and  in  the  neigh- 
bourhood, many  of  whom  came  in  to  meet  us.    The  Mohammedans  in  these

p«rU  are  rather  nnmerons,  and  upon  reacbing  the  chapd  I  found  a  man  who 
had  formerij  liyed  in  Kotar  (near  to  Kagercoil),  inth  whom  we  entered  into 
oonrersatioii.  He  was  Boon  joined  by  another,  and  both  listened  attentivelj. 
We  t(^  th^n  we  had  come,  not  to  see  the  Ohristiaas  only,  bctt  themselTes 
also,  wher«apon  they  both  went  off  to  their  street  and  called  together  a 
Bxunber  of  their  people.  They  soon  retomed  along  with  fifteen  others,  and 
all  sat  within  the  chi^>d  while  we  read  and  explained  the  Serm<m  on  the 
MoQJit.  They  heard  most  attentiyely  for  nearly  two  hours,  and  in  the  after- 
Boon,  as  we  ware  leaving,  some  of  the  chidf  men  came  out  wiih  presents  of 
firnit.  It  is  a  rare  thing  to  meet  with  Mohammedans  so  ready  to  receive 
inatmctioa.  Usually,  they  are  the  most  bitter  c^pcsients  we  have  to 
encounter. 

DEVIL  W0E8HIP  BENOUMCED. 

'*  On  the  way  to  our  resting  place  for  the  night,  we  went  to  a  village  quite 
away  among  the  jungles,  which  in  all  probability  no  European  had  ever  before 
visited.  The  people  there  had  but  very  recently  come  over  to  Christianity, 
through  the  exertions  of  a  catechist  labouring  in  those  parts.  The  devil 
temple,  with  its  walls  completely  covered  with  hideous  representations  of 
demons,  done  in  glaring  colours,  and  in  and  aroimd  which,  for  how  long  no 
one  can  tell,  the  frantic  nocturnal  orgies  of  the  heathen  have  been  performed, 
was  still  standing,  but  just  beside  it,  indicating  the  change  that  had  taken 
place,  a  shed  had  been  ei'ected  as  a  tempoiury  place  wherein  to  offer  the 
sacrifice  of  praise  and  prayer  to  the  true  and  living  Qod.  Here  the  villagers 
assembled  with  presents  of  such  things  as  they  had  to  give.  After  service 
the  chief  man  told  us  they  had  now  no  fear  of  demons,  and  intended  destroy- 
ing the  devil  pagoda  as  soon  as  soffLcient  rain  feU  to  soaJc  the  mud  walls. 

NATIYS  MELODY. 

**  The  foUowing  day,  Sunday,  we  spent  partly  in  the  Neyoor  and  partly  in 
the  Pareyehaley  districts,  and  enjoyed  the  privilege  of  holding  services  in 
four  different  places.  The  journey  to  our  halting-place  for  the  night  was 
made  by  torchlight,  and  as  one  of  the  evangelists  is  an  excdlent  singer  of 
the  native  lyrics,  and  several  of  the  Pareychaley  catechists  no  less  distin- 
guished in  this  line,  they  struck  up  some  of  their  favourite  tunes,  and,  on  our 
approaching  the  village,  the  whole  community  turned  out  to  j<Hn  the  proces- 
sion, and  eojoj  the  music ;  for  I  may  observe,  that  whatever  mi^  be  said  by 
Bozopecns  in  ditqiraise  of  the  national  music,  justly  or  otherwise,  it  possesses, 
as  may  be  supposed,  a  peouHar  charm  Soac  the  people  themselves,  and  excites 
feetiags  and  emotions  which  the  metres  and  music  of  the  west  are  never 
lik^  to  awi^en  or  iu^ire.  It  was  rather  late  in  the  evening  before  we 
reached  our  quarters,  and  the  heat  beoig  very  great,  I  had  my  chair  and 
table  brought  outside  the  ehapel,  ^diere  I  sat  down,  receiving  the  kind  atten- 
tions of  the  catechist  of  the  {dace,  who  did  his  best  to  compensate,  by  means 
of  a  largo  £mi,  lor  the  absence  of  ti^  usual  cool  evening  breeze. 

A  HOPEFUL  INi^XriEBE.  _  , 

**  Just  then  one  of  the  evangelists  came  near,  foUowe^^ by  a  very^espectable 


232  MIS8I0NABT  MAGAZINE 

looking  Sudra  in  Government  emploj,  whom  he  introduced  as  *  a  Nicodemnft 
deeirons  of  instruction  by  night/  for  fear  of  his  family  and  relatiyes.  The 
case  of  this  man  is  very  interesting.  Some  time  ago,  it  appears,  sereral 
members  of  his  family  were  out  off  by  cholera,  which  led  to  the  catechist 
speaking  seriously  to  him  about  the  shortness  and  uncertainty  of  life,  and  the 
necessity  of  preparation  for  death.  The  words  thus  spoken  made  a  de^ 
impression,  and  from  that  time  he  became  an  inquirer,  and  reader  of  Christian 
books.  Soon  he  bought  a  Bible,  which  I  understand  he  reads  diligently  and 
even  prayerfully,  and  now  professes  himself,  but  secretly,  for  fear  of  the 
heathen,  a  Christian.  His  appearance  at  that  hour  of  the  evening,  and 
immediately  after  his  hearing  that  a  missionary  had  come  to  the  place,  shows 
the  interest  he  feels  in  spiritual  things.  He  listened  with  much  attention  to 
the  advice  I  gave  him,  and  after  a  time  withdrew.  Such  cases  are  not  now  so 
rare  as  we  may  suppose ;  and,  seeing  that  the  consequences  involved  in  the 
casting  off  all  reserve,  and  boldly  making  an  open  profession  of  belief  in 
Christianity  are  often  so  great,  we  ought  not  to  be  surprised  at  such  fears 
deterring,  though  we  may  regret  it,  and  urge  the  importance  and  necessity  of 
immediate  decision.  Doubtless  there  are  not  a  few  secret  disciples  round 
about  us ;  and, '  though  Israel  knoweth  them  not,'  yet  '  the  Lobd  knoweth 
them  that  are  His.' 

"  The  following  day  interesting  services  were  held  in  three  congregations 
belonging  to  Pareychaley,  viz.,  Kadtj,  Mubungavillbt,  and  Killiub. 

"  April  12th. — ^To-day  we  also  held  three  services  in  Christian  congrega- 
tions, and  spoke  to  a  good  many  heathens.  Early  in  the  morning,  on  the  way 
to  a  village  called  Koonatoor,  we  met  one  of  the  officers  of  the  palace  whose 
house  is  situated  there.  He  conversed  in  English  pretty  fluently,  and  read 
several  passages  from  an  English  New  Testament  which  was  handed  to  him. 
He  readily  admitted  the  superiority  of  Christianity  to  all  other  systems  of 
religion,  but  did  not  seem  to  trouble  himself  much  about  such  matters.  Some 
of  his  friends,  not  acquainted  with  English,  were  feur  more  ready  to  listen,  and 
one  of  them  purchased  a  book.  He  came  out,  however,  to  meet  us  again  in 
the  evening,  previous  to  our  leaving  the  village.  A  book  that  he  held  in  his 
hand  led  me  to  inquire  what  he  had  been  reading,  and  upon  his  handing  it  to 
me  for  my  inspection,  I  found  it  was  an  old  Report  by  Mx,  Brown,  the  Bi^jah's 
astronomer,  respecting  certain  meteorological  phenomena  observed  by  him 
during  a  short  residence  on  the  Agasthier  Peak.  It  contained,  I  observed, 
some  rather  racy  descriptive  passages,  and  it  was  for  the  fine  English  of  the 
composition,  not  for  any  merit  that  might  attach  to  it  in  a  scientific  i>oint  of 
view,  that  the  pages  of  this  old  Report  were  being  so  diligently  perused.  This 
is  thoroughly  characteristic  of  Hindoos  who  possess  a  smattering  of  'RT^g^*^' 
Any  piece  of  fine  writing  they  will  pore  over,  for  the  sake  of  the  nords ;  and  as 
many  never  get  beyond  this,  their  knowledge  of  Eng^lish  cannot  be  said  to  be 
of  much  use  to  them :  in  fact,  the  pride  which  a  superficial  knowledge  of  this 
kind  seldom  or  never  fails  to  engender,  does  incalculable  harm. 

"  On  the  morning  of  the  13th  we  reached  a  town  called  Pattanam,  at  the 
mouth  of  the  Tamarapami  river,  where  we  held  an  interesting  service  with 
the  people.  As  the  key  of  the  chapel  could  not  be  found  we  had  to  content 
ourselves  with  remaining  in  the  verandah;  where  w^^ldi^^lield  the  meeting. 


FOB  AUGUST,  1864.  233 

Most  of  the  Christians  here  are  very  poor,  and  some  vejy  ignorant,  haying 
just  newly  embraced  Christianity.  As  they  are  mostly  engaged  in  fishing, 
we  addressed  them  from  the  parable  of  the  drag-net,  which  all  seemed  per- 
fectly to  nndei*stand.  A  rich  Mohammedan  in  this  place,  on  hearing  of  our 
arrival,  sent  a  boat  to  fetch  us  to  his  home ;  but  only  the  native  brethren 
went,  owing  to  the  rain,  which  fell  very  heavily  during  the  day,  and  which 
prevented  us  from  preaching  in  the  streets,  as  we  had  intended.  In  the  even- 
ing we  arrived  at  a  village  called  Devicodu,  and  had  a  very  interesting  meeting 
with  the  Christians  there. 

"  The  day  following,  being  the  Sangam  (the  Tract  Society  Anniversary)  at 
Neyoor,  when  most  of  the  Christians  would  be  there,  it  was  arranged  that  no 
meetings  should  be  held  in  the  chapels  till  the  evening,  but  the  day  devoted 
entirely  to  the  heathen.  At  one  place  called  Katu-kadi,  which  we  visited 
in  the  morning,  we  were  received  with  the  greatest  respect  and  kindness.  A 
lyric  was  sung  in  the  street,  and  we  soon  had  a  crowd  of  people  round  about 
us,  which  some  of  the -head  men  of  the  place  soon  joined.  They  sent  for  a 
chair  and  requested  me  to  dismount  from  my  pony,  which  I  did.  Here  we 
remained  as  loni^  as  the  heat  would  allow,  and  several  came  forward  eager  to 
possess  themselves  of  tracts,  especially  those  which  have  pieces  of  poetry  in 
them.  I  could  not  help  contrasting  our  reception  here  with  that  at  Tiruve- 
taru.  Here  the  people  listened  most  attentively,  and  one  of  the  head  men 
accompanied  us  a  little  way  beyond  the  village,  in  token  of  respect. 

VAIN  EXCUSES. 

"We  had  not  gone  far  when  we  came  to  some  Christians  working  in  their 
fields.  We  asked  them  why  they  had  not  gone  to  the  Sangam.  One  replied, 
*  Yesterday  the  rain  came,  and  we  are  now  doing  a  little  ploughing,  but  we 
will  soon  be  ready  to  go.'  Another  whom  we  met  in  a  -village,  and  to  whom 
we  put  the  same  question,  said,  '  I  found  when  it  rained  yesterday  a  small 
leak  in  the  roof  of  my  house,  and  to-day  I  am  stopping  it  up.'  A  third, 
whose  house  was  a  little  off  the  road,  on  being  accosted  by  us  in  like  manner, 
shouted  out,  "They  are  gone,  they  are  gone!'  meaning  the  catechist  and 
school-master  had  gone,  *  and  who  else  need  go  ?'  Such  excuses  are  very  cha- 
racteristic. Late  in  the  evening,  after  preaching  to  a  large  concourse  of  people 
in  a  bazar,  we  reached  the  village  of  Sembenvilley,  where  we  had  arranged  to 
remain  for  the  night.  On  approaching,  our  attention  was  arrested  by  what 
seemed  to  be  a  portion  of  the  village  on  fire ;  and  we  soon  found  that  our  sur- 
mise was  correct — three  houses  there  being  in  fiames,  which  no  efforts  of  the 
people  could  extinguish.  After  the  fire  had  burned  itself  out,  as  it  was  a  dear 
moonlight  night  we  assembled  the  people  in  the  lawn,  and  addressed  them 
from  the  texts,  'God  is  a  consuming  fire,'  and  'Grod  is  love.'  After  this  service 
thirteen  people  requested  that  their  names  might  be  put  down  as  candidates  for 
baptism,  and  the  list  sent  to  Mr.  Baylis,  the  missionary,  at  Neyoor. 

"I  find  my  letter  is  becoming  too  long,  and  it  is  to  be  feared  rather 
uninteresting,  so  I  must  compress  what  I  had  thought  of  saying  further 
within  a  brief  compass.  After  the  date  mentioned  above  we  visited  six  more 
congregations  belonging  to  Neyoor,  and  met  the  people  of  fourteen  congre- 
gations connected  with  the  Santhapuram  district.    One  of  the  days  spent  at

984  K1S9I0NABT  MAOAZIKE 

Saathapuram  was  a  Sondaj ;  and  at  each  aerrice  the  ohapels  were  thronged 
with  eager  and  mteUigemt  hearers.  I  may  mention  in  partacnkr  the  oongre- 
Ifation  at  a  village  called  Atticadu,  where  we  preached  on  the  Sabbath 
evening.  The  people  here  were  all  waiting  for  ua ;  and  not  only  so,  but  maay 
came  out  a  good  part  of  the  way  to  meet  ua.  The  place  was  crowded  to 
suffocation,  ajid  I  hope  some  good  impressions  were  produced  upon  the  large 
assembly.  The  catediist  at  this  place  is  a  worthy  man,  and  the  woric  of  the 
Lord  is  prospering  abnndantly  in  his  hands. 

SUMIULBT  OF  TWBLYB  DATS*  I.ABOTJB. 

"  Not  to  enter  further  into  details,  however  interesting  some  of  them  arc,  I 
may  say  that,  during  these  twelve  days,  although  the  number  of  miles 
travelled  was  not  more  than  one  htmdred  and  ten,  yet  within  that  compara- 
tively short  distance  we  had  the  privilege  of  preaching  to  Christians  connected 
with  about  foett  regularly  established  congregations.  The  number  of 
^dresses  given  by  myself  and  the  native  brethren  who  accompanied  me 
amounted  together  to  about  nine  per  day,  besides  addresses  to  the  heathen  in 
numerous  towns  and  villages. 

"  In  conclusion,  I  would  make  the  following  two  observations,  both  amply 
borne  out  by  facts  that  came  under  our  notice  duiing  this  brief  tour : — 

"  1.  The  feujt  of  our  having  met  so  many  Chi-istians  within  a  circuit  of 
about  one  hundred  miles  is  conclusive  evidence  that  Christianity  has  taken 
root  in  South  Travancore.  It  is  to  be  feared  there  are  many  in  every 
congregation  who  have  a  name  to  live  while  they  are  dead,  and  adhere  to 
Christianity  from  interested  motives ;  but,  as  far  as  man  can  judge,  there  are 
a  faithful  few  at  every  centre,  exerting  a  healthful  influence  upon  the  sur- 
rounding heathen.  May  the  numbers  of  such  rapidly  increase !  To  rouse  up 
these  dead  souls,  as  well  as  to  build  up  this  infant  Church,  we  need  an  increase 
of  faithful,  earnest,  native  preachers,  and  an  abundant  outpouring  of  the 
Holy  Spirit  of  God. 

"  2.  While  it  must  be  cheerfully  admitted  that  great  success  has  attended 
the  Missions  here,  and  God  is  even  now  exerting  His  saving  power  among 
this  people,  it  must  also  be  remembered  that  there  is  still  much  land  to  be 
possessed.  The  opposition  we  met  with  in  some  parts  shows  that  the  enemy 
is  still  strong ;  and  yet  it  cannot  be  doubted  that  many  seem  ready,  but  for 
the  bondage  of  caste,  to  throw  off  the  yoke  of  Satan,  and  declare  themselves 
the  servants  of  Christ. 

"  That  the  Lord's  kingdom  will  here  come  speedily  and  with  power  is  what 
our  faith  bids  us  write  to  the  Churches ;  but,  alas !  faith  is  sometimes  like  to. 
fail  us,  for  difficulties  of  various  kinds  rise  up  before  us  like  the  everlasting 
hills.  Let  the  Churches  ever  pray  that  their  missionaries  may  be  raen  Jkll  of 
faith  and  of  the  Holy  Ghost,  for  these,  more  than  all  other  good  gifts,  we 
stand  in  need  of. 

"  With  Christian  regards  to  the  Directors  and  yourself, 

"  Believe  me,  yours  very  faithfully, 

"  BeV.  a.  TiDMAN,  D.D."  "  J.  DUTHIE.

SCENE  FROM  THE  JOURNAL  OF  A  MISBIONART. 

« 

Oxm  readers  have  been  so  frequentlj  gratified  with  cheering  intelligence  of 
the  progress  of  the  Gospel  in  the  Islands  of  the  Pacific,  that  there  is  some 
danger  ihat  they  may  be  led  to  form  an  impressioii  too  favourable  of  the 
suceesB  aetoally  attaizied.  la  many  instuiees  the  light  introduced  has  only 
made  the  horrors  of  heatiien  dai^neis  more  visible.  This  will  appear  ia  ike 
extract  from  ihe  journal  of  ihe  Rxr.  Joaspn  Xnra,  which  follows.  But  the 
friends  and  snpporters  of  the  Society  will  also  leun  ihs  urgent  necessity 
which  still  exists  for  wider  and  more  energetic  exertions.  Indeed,  what  has 
been  already  accomplished  creates  this  further  want ;  and  we  trust  ttiat  the 
Society  may  be  enabled,  by  the  continued  generous  support  of  its  constitu- 
ents, to  send  out  more  labourers  for  the  myriads  from  whom  the  piteous  and 
urgent  cry  is  still  heard — "  Come  over  and  help  us." 

**On  Monday,  October,  12, 1863,  at  sunrise,**  writes  the  Rev.  Joseph  King, 
''we  sighted  liar6.  As  this  was  the  fint  island  some  of  us  had  seen  in  th« 
IGssion-field,  we  approached  it  with  feelings  of  peculiar  interest.  We  made 
far  DCr.  Jones's  station  first.  Until  we  were  close  in  we  could  see  no  trace  of 
human  beings,  on  account  of  the  thick  bush,  which  is  allowed  to  grow  quite 
down  to  the  water's  edge ;  but  when  we  were  sufficiently  near  we  discovered 
'  crowds  of  natives  under  the  trees,  waiting  to  welcome  us.  Before  we  had 
anchored,  many  of  them  had  plunged  into  the  waves  and  were  swimming  off 
to  the  ship.  The  deck  was  soon  covered.  ICany  ot  them  looked  very  wild, 
but  an  bore  some  indication  that  the  influences  of  Christianity  were  at  woik  in 
their  midst. 

**  We  spent  five  days  on  diore,  dividing  the  time  between  Mr.  Jones's  and 
Mr.  Creagh's  stations. 

"  The  great  mi^|ority  of  the  population  are  still  in  the  darkness  of  heathenism. 
In  going  to  Hr.  Joneses  stations  we  sailed  ehse  hy  a  plane  where,  only  sewn 
days  btforey  eight  captives^  taken  in  war,  were  Mled,  cooked,  and  eaten.  The 
light,  however,  that  emanates  from  the  missionary  stations,  is  gradually 
farang  its  rays  into  the  darkness.  May  the  gross  darkness  soon  be  dispersed, 
and  the  glorious  light  of  the  Gospel  shine  in  every  daric  heart. 

"  On  Thursday,  October  15th,  we  sailed  for  Liftu  The  next  uondng  we  were 
at  the  station  formerly  occupied  by  M5r.  Baker.  We  stayed  here  only  a  few 
hours,  and  then  made  for  Mr.  Macfarlane's  station,  on  the  other  side  of  the 
island.  We  anchored  in  the  small  harbour  6n  which  it  is  situated,  on  Satur- 
day afternoon.  The  next  day,  Sunday,  waa  a  very  interesting  day;  besides 
Itr.  MacfSarlane'a  usual  morning  service  with  the  natives,  we  held  two  services 
in  English,  and  in  the  afternoon  a  special  meeting  of  the  natives,  which  we  all 
addressed  through  interpreters.  On  Tuesday  afternoon,  after  a  very  pleasant 
stay  in  this  promising  field,  we  again  started  for  the  boats,  to  join  the  ship  : 
iJrowds  of  natives  were  on  the  beach  to  see  us  go. 

"Here  an  incident  took  place,  a  description  of  which  will  interest  you.  One 
boatM  had  gone;  Mr.  and  Mrs.  Whitmee,  Mrs.  King,  and  myB^,  were  left  to 


236  MISSIONAEY  MAGAZINB 

come  in  the  second  boot  Mr.  and  Mrs.  W.  were  already  in  the  boat,  and  we 
were  walking  down  the  beach  with  Mrs.  Macfarlane,  when,  jast  as  ^e  had  g^ 
to  the  boat,  a  nnmber  of  natives,  wild  with  excitement,  roshed  npon  me ;  one 
strong  fellow  seized  me  bj  the' arm  and  held  me  fast.  From  their  fierce  ap- 
pearance one  would  have  much  more  readily  conceived  that  they  had  arrested 
me  in  this  summary  manner  to  club  me,  than  for  the  pnrpose  they  had.  The 
whole  affair  was  soon  explained.  The  man  who  had  seized  me  was  a  chief  who 
had  come  with  his  people  twenty  miles,  fix>m  an  inland  district,  to  ask  the 
committee  if  he  conld  not  have  a  missionary  for  his  land.  He  had  made  the 
request  several  times  before,  and  having  heard,  through  Mr.  Mac&rlane,  that 
I  was  originally  appointed  to  the  station  on  the  other  side  of  the  island, 
he  thought  he  had  some  sort  of  claim  upon  me.  We  were  quickly 
surrounded  by  all  the  natives  on  the  beach.  Mrs.  Macfiarlane  entreated 
him  to  let  me  go,  but  he  positively  refused.  While  he  thus  held  me  fast, 
another  native  stood  by  the  side  of  Mrs.  Eling,  who  was  on  my  arm,  and 
harangued  the  crowd,  urging  them  to  carry  me  off  by  main  force.  When  I 
repeatedly  assured  them,  through  Mi's.  Mac&rlane,  that  I  must  g^o,  as  I  had 
been  appointed  to  Samoa,  they  made  reply  by  shouting,  '  Samoa  all  light ! 
Lifu  all  dark !'  Mrs.  Macfieurlane,  finding  that  all  her  entreaties  failed,  sent 
for  Mr.  M.  When  he  came  he  addressed  the  crowd,  explaining  to  them  that 
it  was  quite  impossible  for  me  to  stay ;  until  at,  last  the  poor  chief,  with  tears 
in  his  eyes  and  a  sad  heart,  gave  up  his  hold,  to  return  to  his  people  and  tell 
them  that  his  appeal  had  been  made  in  vain.  Oh !  that  Christian  young  men 
in  England  could  have  heard  that  appeal !  then,  sure  I  am,  it  would  not  have  < 
been  made  in  vain.  No  ChristiBn  could  have  looked  upon  that  crowd  of  half 
enlightened  men,  earnestly  crying  for  an  instructor  to  show  them  the  way  of 
life,  and  have  remained  unmoved.  As  soon  as  I  was  liberated  we  g^t  into  the 
boat  and  started  for  the  ship,  with  sorrowful  hearts  that  we  had  been  obliged 
to  deny  these  poor  people,  the  spiritual  advantages  they  so  earnestly  sought. 
Gladly  would  I  have  submitted  to  the  seizure  had  it  been  practicable.  It 
would  be  an  enviable  thing  to  minister  the  Word  of  Life  to  a  people  so  eager  to 
receive  it.  Would  that  some  of  the  students  at  home,  who  are  waiting  for  calls 
to  spheres  of  labour,  could  have  heard  such  a  call  as  that,  to  the  missionary 
field.

DEATH  OF  MKS.  PETER  LE  BRUN. 

Ths  Eev.  Peter  Le  Bnm,  in  conjunction  with  his  venerable  parent  the 
Bev.  John  Le  Brun,  and  his  elder  brother,  has  for  several  years  carried  on 
missionary  labours  in  Mauritius  amongst  a  mixed  population,  including  many 
refugees  from  Madagascar.  Mr.  P.  Le  Brun  has  of  late  suffered  much  fiom 
personal  affliction,  and  we  now  learn  with  deep  concern  and  sympathy  that, 
by  the  death  of  his  affectionate  wife,  which  happened  on  the  5th  of  April, 
his  home  has  been  rendered  desolate  and  his  childrfi' il^^lb  been  deprived  of

a  mother's  tender  care.      In  a  letter  dated  Moka,  Mauritius,  5th  May,  our 
bereaved  Mend  writes : — 

"It  is  my  most  painful  duty  to  inform  you  of  the  sad  berearement 
with  which  it  has  pleased  the  Almighty  to  visit  me  in  the  death  of  my 
beloTed  partner.  She  died  trusting  in  Jeeus.  Though  brought  up  in  the 
Church  of  Rome,  she  had  renounced  its  teaching,  and  was  a  faithful  disciple 
of  Christ  until  her  death,  which  was  peace.  To  her  parents,  who  were  weep- 
ing round  her  bed,  she  said,  *  Weep  not  for  me :  I  am  happy  in  Jesus.*  A 
short  time  before  her  death  she  requested  a  few  members  of  our  little  Church 
at  Moka  to  sing  her  faYOurite  hymn. 

"  Though  my  cup  of  sorrow  has  run  over,  and  I  am  left  desolate  with  three 
little  motherless  children,  I  am  yet  r^'oiced  to  know  that  she  had  put  her  trust 
in  Christ,  as  her  everlasting  refuge." 


DEATH  OF  MRS.  PEAESE. 
So  recently  as  the  month  of  June,  1863,  the  Rev.  Joseph  Pearse,  accom- 
panied by  his  estimable  wife,  whose  early  removal  we  are  now  called  to  de- 
plore, sailed  for  Maiiritius,  en  route  for  Madagascar.  On  reaching  the  latter 
island,  Mr.  and  Mrs.  Pearse,  with  the  Rev.  Julius  Kessler,  proceeded  to  the 
capital,  and  at  once  entered  with  zeal  and  devotedness  upon  the  important 
work  assigned  to  them.  But  their  fair  prospects  were,  in  the  case  of  Mr. 
and  Mrs.  Pearse,  soon  overcast  by  the  failing  health  of  the  latter ;  and  so 
rapidly  did  the  fatal  malady  imder  which  she  laboured  gather  strength,  that, 
at  the  instance  of  Dr.  Davidson,  it  was  decided  that  Mrs*  P.  should  return  to 
England  under  the  care  of  her  husband.  With  that  object  our  Mends  reached 
the  port  of  Tamatave,  when  the  dear  invalid  was  suddenly  stricken  by  the 
hand  of  death,  and  entered  upon  her  eternal  rest  on  the  18th  of  May. 

From  her  bereaved  and  afflicted  husband,  who  has  since  returned  to  the 
capital,  we  have  received  the  following  particulars  of  the  mournful  event : — 

"  Tamatave,  Madagascar,  May  26th,  1864. 

"  Dear  and  Rev.  SiB,~My  last  to  you  was  written  with  a  heavy  heart,  on 
account  of  the  trial  I  felt  it  to  leave  the  scene  of  my  labours  at  Antananarivo; 
but  my  sorrow  was  mitigated  by  the  hope  that  our  return  to  England  might 
be  beneficial  to  my  beloved  wife's  health,  and  that  by  this  course  we  mighty 
at  least  for  a  season,  prolong  her  valuable  life. 

"  It  is  with  afar  heavier  heart  that  I  now  communicate  to  you  the  fact 
that  she  has,  in  the  solemn  providence  of  God,  been  released  from  her  weak- 
ness and  pain,  having  sweetly  fallen  asleep  in  Jesus  at  this  place,  on  the 
morning  of  Wednesday  the  18th  inst. 

**  Although,  as  you  are  aware,  her  health  has  been  feuling  for  some  time, 
and,  when  1  considered  the  nature  of  the  disease,  I  could  not  indulge  the  hope 
that  she  would  be  spared  to  me  for  many  years,  yet,  up  till  within  twelve 
hours  of  her  death,  I  had  no  reason  to  think  her  end  was  so  new,  and  even 
thought  we  might  get  to  Enghmd.  ^^' ""'  '^  ^OOgie 


238  MISSIOKART  MAOAZmE 

''We  left  Antananarivo  on  'Hiarsdaj,  May  5tb,  and  reaohed  this  place  on 
Saturday  the  14th.  We  were  merciftdly  preserved  from  dangers,  and  we  en- 
joyed  fine  weather  throughout  our  journey.  But  upon  our  arrival,  it  was 
evident  that  the  fiitigues  and  inconveniences  of  the  journey  had  told  upon  the 
invalid.  She  was  weaker  than  when  we  left  the  capital ;  but  after  a  day  or 
two's  rest  she  seemed  somewhat  hotter,  and  we  were  anxiously  waiting  the 
arrival  of  the  *  Sazonia  *  to  convey  us  to  Mauritius. 

"  On  the  Tuesday  afternoon,  however,  the  summons  came.  Mr.  Procter, 
au  English  merchant  here,  and  who  has  been  exceedingly  kind,  had  invited 
us  to  dinner,  and  on  her  way  to  his  house  she  was  taken  with  a  fit.  All  con- 
sciousness was  gone,  and  I  regret  to  say  that  up  to  the  time  of  her  death  it 
did  not  return :  there  was  no  word,  no  look  of  recognition  from  her,  to  tell  me 
she  had  the  presence  of  her  Saviour  in  the  trying  hour,  or  that  she  knew  I 
was  by  her  side.  The  fit  lasted  about  half  an  hour,  but  was  soon  followed 
by  another ;  and  after  that  had  passed  they  continued  to  return,  with  longer 
or  shorter  intervals,  up  till  about  three  o'clock  on  Wednesday  morning. 
From  that  hour  up  till  about  half-past  four  iAk»  lay  perfectly  quiet,  but 
brefttiiing  very  hard.  All  that  time  I  felt  her  pulse,  and  found  it  weaker.  I 
bent  over  h^  and  watched,  if  possible,  witli  increased  anxieij.  The  breathing 
was  fainter  and  £unter  still,  till,  just  about  five  o'clock,  as  gently  as  an 
infant  falls  to  sleep  upon  its  mother's  breast,  my  beloved  wife  fell  asleep  in 
Jesus. 

"  As  you  will  suppose,  I  am  overwhelmed  w^th  the  greatest  sorrow.  It  is 
but  little  more  than  twelve  months  ago  that,  with  a  thankful  heart,  I  led  her 
from  the  altar,  and  fondly  hoped  that  for  many  years  she  would  be  spared  to 
me,  to  help  and  encourage  me  in  my  great  worit,  and  to  be  the  partner  of  my 
joys  and  sorrows ;  but  now  all  that  was  mortal  lies  in  the  cemetery  of 
Tamatave.  For  her,  deatth  undoubtedly  has  been  gain.  Mine,  and  I  may 
add  yours,  is  the  loss.  Had  heal^  been  granted,  it  woold  hare  been  ber 
joy  to  have  helped  me  in  my  missianary  work,  while  her  inteUeotoal 
capacities  fitted  her  eminently  for  tk^e  position  she  was  called  to  occupy. 
But  she  has  finished  her  course.  She  has  completed  the  work  her  Heavenly 
Father  gave  her  to  do  on  earth,  and  has  gone  up  higher  to  join  in  the  i>erfect 
vrork  of  heaven.  Thus  has  the  one  been  taken  and  the  other  left.  For  what  ? 
Surdy  that  with  increased  love,  and  with  increased  zeal,  I  should  carry  on  the 
Saviour's  work,  doing  with  my  might  the  work  my  hands  find  to  do,  re- 
membering that  there  is  no  work  or  device  in  the  g^rave,  whither  I  too  may 
soon  be  called. 

**  I  remain,  Rev.  and  dear  Sir, 

"  Tours  very  sincerely,

DEATH  OF  THE  REV.  JOHN  HANDS. 

Although  the  venerable  subject  of  this  notice  had  long  retired  £rom  the 
field  of  foreign  service,  his  latter  years  ^ere  spent  in  active  aod  effioi^it 
labours  at  home^  more  especially  with  a  vieV  to  poromote  the  cause  of 
Missions. 

Mr,  Hands  first  pvoeeeded  to  India  in  the  year  1809,  and  prosecuted  his 
missionary  labours  widi  much  devotedness  successively  at  Bellary  and 
Bangalore,  during  a  period  of  about  thirty  years,  vrhen  failure  of  health 
necessitated  his  final  return  to  England  in  1841.  During  several  subsequent 
•years  of  his  protracted  and  honoured  life,  our  friend  resided  in  Dublin,  acting 
as  agent  for  the  Society  in  the  transaction  of  its  affairs  in  Ireland.  Having 
at  length  retired  from  office,  he  passed  the  remainder  of  his  days  in  retirement 
at  Monkstown,  near  Dublin,  where  he  sweetly  fell  asleep  in  Jesus  on  the 
30th  June  ult.,  at  the  advanced  age  of  eighty-four,  having  long  survived  all 
his  early  contemporaries  in  the  missionary  field. 

During  the  period  of  his  protracted  labours  both  in  India  and  in  Britain, 
it  was  the  singular  privilege  of  our  departed  friend  to  eiyoy  in  the  highest 
degree  the  esteem  and  affection  of  all  who  were  brought  within  his  infiuence — 
a  just  tribute,  indeed,  to  his  saintly  character,  and  his  loving,  genial  disposition. 

The  following  passages  in  a  letter  from  Mrs.  Hands,  giving  some  particulars 
of  his  last  illness  and  death,  will  be  interesting  to  many  of  our  readers  :-^ 

"Brookville,  Monkstown,  July  15th,  1864. 

"  My  dsab  Sib, — ^Knowing  my  beloved  husband  as  you  did  from  his  life 
and  character^  ypu  will  understand  the  reality  of  my  loss.  For  almost  foi'ty 
years  we  had  journeyed  together,  we  had  laboured  together,  and  in  our  old 
age  it  was  good  to  speak  together  of  the  way  the  Lord  had  led  us  and  cared 
for  us.  We  have  been  singularly  blessed  with  kind  friends,  and  in  this,  my 
dear  husband's  last  home,  he  was  loved  and  honoured  by  all. 

"  For  about  a  fortnight  previous  to  his  death  he  had  been  suffering  from  an 
attack  of  asthma;  but  so  far  from  supposing  death  was  at  hand,  our  kind  medical 
friend  advised  change  of  air  as  the  great  requisite  for  his  recovery  to  strength. 
It  was  only  on  Monday,  the  27th  ult.,  that  his  breathing  became  very  labonred, 
accompanied  by  a  sharp  spasm  in  the  region  of  the  heart ;  but  this  symptom 
gave  way.  On  the  Wednesday,  feeling  anxious  about  the  spasms,  it  waa  our 
wish  he  should  see  a  physician,  in  consultation  with  his  own  doctor, 
and  they  met  here  on  the  afternoon  of  that  day.  It  was  their  opinion  that 
bronchitis  had  commenced,  and  that  the  action  of  the  heart  was  weak,  but  that 
there  was  no  appearance  of  immediate  danger,  and  the  physician  accordingly 
arranged  to  see  him  again  on  the  following  Saturday.  The  Lord,  however, 
willed  it  otherwise.  On  that  night  I  put  on  a  blister,  according  to  directions, 
and  remained  sitting  by  him  tmtil  half  past  two,  when  my  daughter  dreased 
it,  and  he  expressed  himself  as  maoh  rditfred,  and  begged  me  to  go  and  He 
dowti  in  the  ac^^oining  room.  Shortly  after,  my  daughter,  hearing  him  speak 
very  loudly,  went  in  and  found  him  fast  asleep^  but  in  earnest  prajer.  He 
soon,  however,  awoke^aa^L  we  plaoed  his  arm-chair  by  the  fire,  and  sat  up  talking

with  him  till  half-past  fonr,  when  Mb  daughter,  after  settling  him  in  bed,  and 
giving  him  some  refreshment,  left  him,  as  he  said,  to  take  a  good  sleep.  I 
watched  him  till  fiye,  but  he  was  so  urgent  to  be  quiet  and  alone  that  I 
returned  to  my  own  room.  You  will  belieye  how  great  was  mj  grief  and 
oonstemation  when  I  heard,  at  a  quarter  to  six,  he  was  no  more.  The  servant, 
on  going  in  with  a  cup  of  tea,  found  him  silent  and  still.  She  first  called  mj 
daughter,  and  together  we  all  tried  what  restoratives,  and  rubbing  the  hands, 
feet,  and  heart  could  do ;  but  the  ransomed  spirit  had  passed  away,  and  with- 
out one  word  of  parting,  I  was  called  on  to  realize  my  widowhood.  The  inclosed 
lines,  received  a  few  days  since,  so  beautifully  describe  Mr.  Hands*  last 
moments,  and  so  truthfully  tell  what  he  was,  that  I  feel  constrained  to  send 
them,  and  feel  you  will  be  pleased  by  the  perusal : — 

There  was  no  parting  pang,  no  sorrowing  sigh. 
None  wist  the  angel  Death  was  standing  1^— 
So  silently  the  prisoner's  bonds  were  riven, 
80  secretly  the  Master's  call  was  given. 

•  •  •  •  • 

Oh,  to  die  thos  t  nor  feel  the  mortal  strife. 
The  oft  preoorsor  of  immoxtal  life. 
Calmly  at  eventide  to  sink  to  rest, 
Safe  pillowed  on  a  loving  Bavionr's  breast. 
60  would  I  sleep  and  lose  this  earthly  dod. 
So  would  I  wake  and  find  myself  with  God. 

My  spirit  has  been  gready  revived  by  the  Christian  syn^athy  and  love  of 
our  many  Mends.    We  have  the  sweet  assurance  that  we  sorrow  not  as  those 
without  hope,  because  '  blessed  are  the  dead  that  die  in  the  Lord.'

CHRONICLE. 


MADAGASCAR. 


OxTEL  latest  intelligence  from  Madagascar,  dated  June  3rd,  though  deficient  in 
details,  affords  us  renewed  assurances  of  the  general  progress  of  the  Mission, 
both  in  the  capital  and  the  surrounding  country. 

The  seven  congregations  in  Antananarivo  continue  numerous  and  regular, 
and  no  month  passes  in  which  additions  are  not  made  to  the  several  Churches. 
The  number  of  children  under  instruction,  especially  in  the  Sunday  Schools, 
is  considerable ;  and  the  Directors  are  employing  their  best  endeavours  to 
obtain  a  well-quaMed  superintendent  of  education,  to  succeed  their  lamented 
friend  Mr.  Stagg.  In  a  letter  fix>m  Mr.  Sibkbe  he  gives  a  gratifying  assur- 
ance of  the  anxiety,  both  of  adults  and  children,  for  instruction. 

"  Owing  to  the  constant  demand  upon  my  time  and  energies,"  writes  Mr.  S. 
"  and  my  limited  knowledge  of  the  language,  I  have  not  been  able  as  yet  to  do 
mnch  to  aid  in  the  general  Mission  work.  I  have,  however,  got  together  a  few 
children,  as  the  commencement  of  a  Sunday  School,  at  Ambatonakanga,  and, 
although  it  is  but  little  I  can  do  in  teaching  them,  I  hope,  at  no  very  distant 
day,  to  form  as  efficient  a  School  as  those  at  the  other  places  of  worship. 
The  thirst  for  information  on  Scripture  subjeets,  on  the  part  both  of  children  and 
ctdults,  is  a  most  gratifying  feature  in  the  character  of  the  people;  and  I  feel 
most  glad  to  be  able  to  take  a  small  share  in  helping  to  supply  their  want 
of  knowledge." 

The  Mekobial  Chukch  at  Ajcbatonakakoa  is  advancing,  although  we  fear 
that  its  progress  may,  for  a  time,  be  hindered  by  the  removal  of  Mr.  Aitken, 
who  has  been  compelled  by  serious  illness  to  return  to  Cape  Town.  The 
erection  of  the  Hospital,  under  the  superintendence  of  Dr.  Davtoson,  by  this 
time  must  be  nearly  completed,  and  the  importance  of  the  m^dic^  hranch  of 
the  Mission  is  becoming  every  day  more  apparent.       ^  ^^    ^  ^

350  MISSIONARY  MAGAZINE 

"We  are  thankful  that  our  devoted  young  brother  the  Rev.  Joseph  Peabse, 
though  deeply  afflicted  by  the  death  of  his  excellent  wife  at  Tamatave,  has 
returned  to  the  capital  to  prosecute  the  work  of  the  Lord,  and  to  strengthen 
the  hands  of  his  fellow-labourers  amidst  the  increasing  claims  of  the  Mission. 
It  is  with  pleasure  also  that  we  learn  that  the  Eev,  R.  G.  Habteey  and 
Mrs.  H.,  and  the  Rev.  B.  Bkigos  and  Mrs.  B.,  with  Mrs.  Kesslee,  who  had 
been  detained  through  the  unfavourable  season  at  Mauritius,  obtained  a 
passage  to  Madagascar,  and  proceeded  to  the  capital  towards  the  close  of  May 
last.  "We  have  ground  to  hope  that  ere  this  they  have  been  joined  by  the 
Eev.  Geoboe  Cousnrs  and  his  wife,  who  left  England  in  June. 

The  labours  of  our  missionarieft  have  hitherto  been  confined  mainly  to  the 
capital  and  the  adjacent  districts ;  but  in  the  latest  communication  of  the 
Rev.  W.  Ellis,  dated  June  2nd,  he  gives  us  reason  to  expect  that  at  an  early 
period  one  of  our  brethren  will  proceed  to  the  Betsileo  country  with  a  view 
of  opening  a  new  centre  of  operation  in  that  district.  The  following  passage 
convejrs  this  gratifying  intelligence : — 

"  A  letter  addressed  to  myself  and  the  other  pastors  of  the  Church  at  Am- 
batonakanga  from  FiaaarantBoa,  asking,  among  other  things,  for  a  European 
Missionary,  was  read  at  our  Ohurch*meetiiig  last  evening.  We  have  long 
felt  that  the  Betsileo  country,  next  to  Imbbina,  offered  the  most  promiamg 
field  for  a  second  centre  of  operation  in  Madagascar,  though  we  think  a  i^ace 
about  three  days'  journey  farther  south  the  most  eligible  site;  but  we  want 
to  go  and  see  both  places  b^ore  we  decide,  and  hope  that  some  of  ua  will  get 
ihere  during  the  present  good  season." 

Should  Ihis  object  be  accomplished,  which  we  confidently  expect,  we  trust 
that  it  will  prove  **  a  field  which  the  Lord  hath  blessed,"  and  that  abundant 
fruits  may  be  found  as  the  result  of  labour  and  prayer  in  that  distant  region,  * 
during  the  dark  days  of  persecution. 

Reports  have  been  circulated,  through  the  medium  of  the  French  papers,  of 
attempts  made  to  dethrone  the  Queen  and  overthrow  the  present  Government; 
but  the  letters  of  our  missionaries  are  altogether  silent  on  the  subject,  and 
wo  hope  and  believe  that  these  will  be  found,  like  other  stafcments  of  the 
same  character,  and  coming  through  the  same  channel,  to  be  unfounded. 

Although  we  cannot  but  regard  the  state  of  the  Mission  as  an  occasion  for 
gratitude  and  hope,  as  well  as  advancing  exertion,  we  are  deeply  sensible  that 
the  continuance  of  peace  and  prosperity  in  the  island  depends  especially  tipoii 
the  control  and  protection  of  the  Great  Ruler ;  and  we  earnestly  commend 
the  state  both  of  the  country  and  the  Mission  to  the  continued  prayers  and 
intercessions  of  the  Church  of  Christ.

CHINA. 
PEKING. 
Wb  are  gratified  with  intelligence  from  J>&.  Dttdgeok,  announcing  his  airival 
in  Pekikg  on  ike  28th  of  March  last.  Oar  friend  Bb.  Lockhabt  was  thus 
enabled  to  receiye  his  successor  before  his  departure,  and  to  introduce  him 
to  his  new  and  important  sphere  of  labour.  Bb.  Dttdgeon  has  entered 
tiioronghly  upon  the  duties  of  iiie  Hospital  and  tiie  exercise  of  his  medical 
skill,  while  the  Ret.  Joshph  Edxiks  is  extending  his  direct  missionary  opera- 
tions in  different  parts  of  the  city  with  evident  tokens  of  the  Bivine  blessing. 

"  Peking,  April  15th,  1864. 

"My  deab  2>b.  Tipman — I  wrote  to  you  from  Chefoo  on  the  16th  Januaiy, 
Old  we  left  that  place  on  the  20th  March. 

'*  I  passed  through  Tientsin,  only  stopping  there  a  few  hours,  and,  travelling 
by  wsier  night  and  day,  reached  Peking  late  in  the  evening  of  the  28th  March, 
nmoh  to  Br.  Lockhart's  ddight. 

"  I  opened  a  dispensary  in  Chefoo,  which  was  prodnctive  of  considerable 
good.  The  BaptLBt  missioiiariea  co-operated  with  me  and  lent  me  eveiy 
assistance.  Their  di{^>el  was  the  dispensaiy.  Persons  of  considerable  posi- 
ti<m  and  several  Chinese  medical  men  came  to  the  hospital — ^the  latter  daily. 
The  patients  came  chiefly  from  the  interior,  often  great  distances.  The  practice 
was  of  a  mixed  Idnd ;  here  it  is  almost  entirely  of  the  eye,  owing,  I  suppose, 
to  tiie  frequent  and  hurtful  dust  storms. 

"  I  shall  have  ocoasion,  in  my  Peking  report,  to  say  a  little  about  my  work 
in  Chefoo — ^the  first  foreign  dispensary  in  the  proTince  of  Confucius.  I  was 
very  urgently  requested  to  stay  there  and  carry  on  the  work,  but  now  that  a 
beginning  has  been  made,  I  hope  ihe  Baptist  So<dety  may  be  induced  to  accede 
to  the  wishes  of  their  misnonaries  at  that  place. 

^  I  have  now  entered  upon  my  work  in  Peking.  My  attendance  last  winter 
at  tlie  LcHidon  Ophthalmic,  and  my  practice  at  Chefoo,  have  prepared  me  for 
the  onerous  work  here.  I  see  the  patients  daily  from  about  11  a.m.  till  2  p.m.  ; 
the  attendance  is  about  100,  and  many  of  these  are  new  caaes. 

"  Br.  Lockhart  remained  with  me  a  few  days  after  my  arrival,  showing  me 
the  working  of  the  hospital,  and  introdoeing  me  to  the  British,  French,  Bussian, 
and  American  Legations. 

"  Sxcase  this  short  and  uninteresting  letter :  my  principal  object  was  to 
make  you  aware  of  our  safe  arrival  at  our  station,  and  of  our  comfort  and 
delight  in  our  work  and  in  our  fellow-labourers.  I  oould  not  desire  a  better, 
more  amiable,  or  more  faithful  co-labourer  than  Mr.  Edkins ;  he  works,  I  think, 
too  hard.  I  purpose  opening  a  dispensary  at  one  of  the  preaching  places  at  a 
eonsiderable  distance  from  the  hospital.  Peking  is  too  large  to  have  patients 
coming  from  all  parts  of  the  city;  at  all  events,  patients  with  less  important 
diseases  may  think  it  useless  to  come  so  feur,  and  as  the  dispensary  is  a  means 
to  a  greator  end,  anything  we  can  do  in  this  way  must  be  productive  of  good 
results.    Br.  Loddiart  will  be  able  to  give  you  all  partictdars  vivd  voce, 

"  With  kind  love  to  Mr.  Prout,  I  am,  my  dear  Br.  Tidman,

Db.  Logkhabt  having  completed  his  valuable  and  disinterested  labours  at 
Fekiko,  departed  amidst  many  proofe  of  respect  and  esteem  from  all  classes 
of  the  foreign  community,  and  proceeded,  as  will  be  seen  from  the  following 
letter,  first  to  Hankow,  which  he  calls  a  wonderful  city,  and  where  the 
Society  has  already  established  an  encouraging  Mission.  Dr.  L.  subse- 
quently paid  a  visit  to  Japan.  His  stay  there,  though  short,  was  exceedingly 
interesting,  and  the  result  of  his  observations  is  given  in  the  following 
letter,  written  after  his  return  to  Shanghae.  From  thence  he  proceeded  to 
England,  and,  we  are  happy  to  say,  arrived  in  health  and  peace  at  Dover  on 
the  14th  ult.  His  presence  will  afford  sincere  gratification  to  the  Directors, 
and  they  doubt  not  that  the  information  he  will  be  able  to  give  with  regard 
both  to  the  claims  and  the  prospects  of  China,  will  be  truly  valuable  and 
encouragiDg  to  the  friends  of  the  Society. 

"  Shanghae,  June  4th,  1864. 

"  My  deab  Fbiend, — I  have  but  little  time  for  a  letter,  but  must  just  send 
a  few  lines  to  report  mysell  I  have  just  returned  from  Tbddo  (Japan).  In  my 
last  I  told  you  of  my  journey  to  Hankow ;  on  that  Mission  Station  I  shall  have 
much  to  state  when  I  see  you,  but  must  urgently  press  on  the  Directors  the 
necessity  of  sending  there  a  medical  missionary.    It  is  truly  a  wonderful  city. 

"  On  my  return  from  Hankow  I  thought  I  could  not  leave  without  seeing 
Japan,  and  went  over.  I  took  over  with  me  a  sick  friend,  a  merchant,  but  he 
died  on  the  way  from  an  imexpected  cause.  I  stayed  at  the  British  Legation 
with  my  old  friends  Sir  R.  and  Lady  Aloock,  ai^d  much  enjoyed  a  renewal  of 
our  intercourse.  By  Sir  E.  A.'s  kindness  I  was  enabled  to  go  to  Teddo  with 
the  French  minister  for  a  day.  Access  to  the  capital  is  very  difficult  and 
dangerous.  Sir  B.  A.  had  been  up  for  a  day  on  business  just  before  my 
arrival ;  and,  as  the  French  minister  had  to  go  up,  he  was  asked,  as  a  great 
favour,  to  take  me,  and  he  kindly  did  so.  We  went  up  in  a  gun-boat  in  the 
afternoon,  and  landed  at  daylight.  About  500  Japanese  infantry  and  cavalry 
was  the  guard,  lest  we  should  be  attacked;  but  all  went  off  quietly.  The 
minister  went  to  the  castle  of  the  President  of  the  Council,  and  I  waited  in  an 
ante-room  with  some  officers  while  he  had  his  audience,  and  then  we  all  rode 
through  the  city,  attended,  of  course,  by  the  guard  of  soldiers.  It  is  a  grand 
city,  and,  having  been  at  Peking,  I  was  very  glad  to  see  Teddo. 

"  I  saw  at  Yokohama  some  very  old  missionary  friends,  formerly  in  China, 
Rev.  S.  B.  and  Mrs.  Brown,  and  Dr.  and  Mrs.  Hepburn.  There  are  six 
American  missionaries  at  Yokohama,  but  they  can  do  little  work ;  th^  wait 
in  hope.  The  people  seem  much  disposed  to  have  the  Gbspel,  though  the 
Gk)vemor  says  he  who  is  baptized  shall  be  at  once  executed.  More  on  this 
subject  when  we  meet.  I  hope  we  shall  yet  work  for  Japan ;  it  is  a  glorious 
country — ^I  believe  the  loveliest  on  earth.  I  went  about  a  good  deal,  riding  in 
all  directions,  but  always  with  a  strong  party,  as  the  officials  have  a  veiy 
unpleasant  proneness  to  molest  foreigners  just  now.  A  skife  is  at  hand.  The 
Japanese  Daimios,  or  Princes,  determine  to  expel  foreigners,  and  to  tiy 
their  strength,  and  are  prepared  for  all  events.  The  only  thing  at  present 
undecided  is,  to  all  human  appearance,  how  and  when  the  first  blow  is  to  be 
struck.    Our  people  do  not  wish  to  strike,  and  probably  will  not  do  so. 


FOR  SEPTEMBER,    1864.  353 

However,  for  the  present  each  side  is  arming,  and  God  onlj  knows  what  the 
result  will  be.     May  He,  out  of  all  this  eril,  cause  that  the  truth  may  prevail. 

"  Christianity  is  wholly  antagonistic  to  the  genius  of  the  Japanese  Govern- 
ment. Christianity  and  the  power  of  the  Daimios  cannot  exist  on  the  same 
soil.  The  Daimios  see  and  know  that  full  well,  and,  in  their  feudal  castles  lay 
their  plans  to  keep  out  the  pestilential  doctrines  of  Christ. 

"  I  returned  from  Japan  on  the  Ist,  and  hope  to  leave  on  the  6th  for  Hong- 
kong and  Singapore,  and  then  home,  by  Grod's  good  providence. 

"  Yours  very  truly,

INDIA. 
VIZAGAPATAM. 

Wb  are  thankful  in  being  able  to  give,  from  recent  communications  of  the 
Bey.  J.  W.  GoBDOif,  some  encouraging  indications  of  the  Divine  blessing  on  the 
labours  of  our  brethren  in  connection  with  this  Mission,  one  of  the  earliest  in 
India  occupied  by  the  Society. 

The  report  given  of  the  converts  recently  admitted  to  the  Church  is  very  in- 
structivc;  showing  the  difficulties  which  the  Christian  inquirer  has  to  encounter, 
and  the  trials  he  has  to  bear  in  the  very  first  stage  of  his  faith — difficulties  which 
nothing  but  the  grace  of  God  and  the  constraining  love  of  Christ  could  enable 
him  to  overcome.  But  it  is  delightful  to  learn  that  the  Gospel,  attended  by 
the  grace  of  the  Holy  Spirit,  is  still  all-commanding  in  its  influence ;  and  that 
even  the  ignorant  and  degraded  Hindoo  becomes  '^  willing,  in  the  day  of  God's 
power,"  to  leave  father  and  mother,  wife  and  children,  friends  and  home,  for 
Christ's  sake  and  the  Gospel's.  It  will  be  noticed  that  these  instances  of 
usefulness  are  mainly  the  result  of  the  labours  of  the  evangelist  Purushotum  ; 
and  we  can  only  renew  the  earnest  hope  that  this  class  of  labourers  may  be 
multiplied  in  connection  with  every  Mission  Station  throughout  India. 

"  Vizagapatam,  5th  February,  1864. 

"  My  dear  Sir, — You  will  recollect  that  in  some  of  my  letters  I  mentioned 
that  our  senior  catechist,  Purushotum,  had  been  located  at  Chittivalsah, 
where  there  is  a  sugar  factory  belonging  to  Messrs.  Arbuthnot  and  Co.,  and 
that  he  had  commenced  his  labours  there  with  pleasing  prospects  of  success. 

"  We  have  had  already  one  convert  from  among  the  fEUjtory  servants,  who 
still  remains  firm ;  the  catechist  referred  to  has  been  located  there  since  last 
February,  amd  he  has  preachcj}  the  Gospel  not  only  to  the  factory  people,  but 
in  the  villages  all  around.  Besides  these  labours  he  has  taken  two  tours  in 
the  country  at  some  distance,  and  preached  the  Grospel,  and  both  sold  and 
distributed  portions  of  Scripture  and  tracts  in  many  parts. 

CONYBRSION  OF  A  HEATHEN  FAMILY. 

*'  I  have  the  pleasure  to  inform  you  that  a  whole  family  living  in  the  imme- 
diate neighbourhood  of  the  factory  have  lately  come  out  from  heathenism. 


354  MIBSIONiJty  MAOAZINS 

and  kaye  e^st  ia  iheir  lot  wiih  the  few  natiTe  durktuuiB  of  the  plaoe.  For 
some  time  pait  this  fiunilj,  of  the  weaver  caste,  more  eapeeiallj  the  man*  had 
been  oonvineed  of  the  errors  oi  Hindooism,  and  the  traUi  of  Christianity ;  he 
was  formerly  a  resident  in  this  town  (Yizagapatam),  and  was  for  a  while  in 
the  Native  English  and  Yernacnlar  Mission  School;  he  subseqaentlj removed 
to  Chittivalsah,  and  has  been  employed  as  a  writer  in  the  £fteioT7.  For  the 
last  two  or  tiiree  years  his  mind  seems  to  have  been  in  a  wandering  state, 
yet  leaning  stron^y  in  favour  of  Christianity.  Ever  since  the  oaieohist  wa* 
stationed  there,  he  has  regularly  a^itended  the  public  service  on  Wednesday 
evening  at  the  dbapel,  and  has  often  conversed  with  the  cateehist  on  the 
subject.  This  state  of  things  went  on  till  a  few  days  ago,  when  I  received 
an  urgent  request  from  the  catechist  to  go  over  to  Chittivalsah,  as  this 
man  had  resolved  no  longer  to  delay  his  profession  of  Christ;  and  had 
spoken  to  his  wife  also,  who  seemed  quite  prepared  to  follow  him. 
I  was  rejoiced  to  hear  this,  and  lost  no  time  in  acceding  to  the  catechist's 
request.  Brammaji,  for  that  is  the  man's  name,  came  and  had  a  long 
interview  with  me,  during  which  he  showed  much  earnestness,  and  a 
stvong  determination  to  follow  the  Saviour.  I  examined  him  on  several 
pointsj  and  was  glad  to  find  that  he  was  wdl  acquainted  with  the  leading 
doctrines  as  well  as  the  main  facts  recorded  in  the  Bible.  I  found  thai 
he  had  conversed  with  some  of  his  relatives  about  the  Christian  religion; 
but  how  to  make  the  last  effort,  the  coming  out  from  a  heathen  home — ^the 
forsaking  of  father  and  mother  and  other  relations — was  the  chief  difficulty. 
He  said,  however,  that  it  must  be  done,  the  religion  of  Christ  required  it ;  that 
he  had  counted  the  cost ;  he  could  find  no  comfort  or  salvation  in  Hindooism, 
and  that  he  had  resolved  to  come  out  at  all  hazards ;  and  the  plan  fixed  on, 
after  some  thought  and  prayer  for  Divine  guidance,  was  that  very  night  to 
break  away  from  the  fieunily  while  they  were  asleep. 

LEAYIFO  KOMB  AKB  KINDBED  FOB  THE  LOBD'S  SAKB. 

Accordingly,  Brammaji*  his  wife,  and  their  two  children,  at  nudnight  on  the 
27th  of  January,  quietly  left  tiieir  heathen  home  with  all  their  earthly  goods, 
save  the  clothes  they  had  on,  and  took  refuge  in  the  house  of  the  cateohiBt^ 
thanking  God  for  their  merciful  deliverance.  This  deed,  once  accomplished, 
could  not,  of  course,  be  concealed ;  as  usual  on  such  occasions,  some  dis- 
turbance was  anticipated,  and  with  this  prospect  I  was  requested  by  the 
catechist  to  go  over  as  speedily  as  possible  to  Chittivalsah  on  the  following 
morning.  It  appeared  that  the  refuge  of  the  fugitives  was  soon  made  known, 
and  Bramm^ji's  old  father  was  the  first  to  come  and  weep  over  his  son,  who  had 
now  forsaken  him.  The  old  man  pleaded  hard  with  his  son,  and  at  one  time 
attempted  to  carry  him  off  bodily;  but  this  not  succeeding  he  went  away. 
This  occurred  before  I  reached  the  place;  shortly  after,  the  old  mother,  and  the 
wife's  sister  also,  and  other  relatives,  came  and  tried  their  utmost  to  get  them 
away;  but  they  remained  firm,  and  kindly  invited  them  to  follow  their  example. 
Throughout  the  day  crowds  of  people  came  about  the  house,  and  the  oppor- 
tunity was  embraced  to  direct  them  to  Jesus.

**  That  Terj  dxy  having  been  fixed  on  for  Brammaji's  baptism,  notice  was 
sent  rocmd  to  all  the  people  in  the  fisurfcoiy,  with  a  request  to  attend  it ;  and 
about  five  o'clock  in  the  erening  the  little  chapel  was  crowded.  After  a  short 
introductory  discourse  I  put  some  questions  to  the  conyert,  who  answered  all 
in  a  most  satisfoctoiy  manner.  I  then  administered  t^e  rite  of  baptism  to 
him  in  tiie  name  of  *  the  Father,  the  Son,  and  the  Holy  Ghost.'  Hie  people 
seemed  very  attentive  during  the  whole  service.  I  trust  and  pray  that  many 
here^nay  follow  this  man's  example,  and  be  led  to  embrace  Christianity.  As 
Brammaji's  wife  is  stiH  very  ignorant,  and  needs  instruction,  it  was  deemed 
advisable  to  postpone  her  baptism  for  the  present ;  but  I  trust  it  will  not  be 
k>ng  before  die  also  may  be  publicly  received  among  the  few  adherents  of  t^e 
Christian  religion  in  that  dark  place. 

"  I  have  been  informed  that  there  are  others  there  who  are  quite  convinced 
that  idolatry  is  wrong,  but  only  lack  courage  to  come  out  and  publicly  profess 
their  attachment  to  a  bettor  and  holier  faith. 

•*  May  Grod  grant  a  larger  outpouring  of  His  Holy  Spirit  in  that  part  of  the 
vineyard.

**  Ret.  De.  TrDMAw."  **  J.  W.  €k>BDON. 

In  a  second  communicatioD,  dated  May  20th,  Mr.  Gordon  supplies  addi- 
tional particulars  respecting  the  trials  and  the  firmness  of  the  new  oonvert, 
and  he  records  also  the  baptism  and  reception  of  another. 

**  Since  I  wrote  last,"  he  observes,  "  our  new  convert,  Brammaji,  has  had  a 
good  deal  of  trouble  about  his  wife  and  children.  Shortly  after  his  baptism  the 
friends  and  relations  of  his  wife,  instigated  by  several  people  of  their  village, 
came  to  the  house  of  our  catechist,  where  the  new  convert  was  staying, 
and  almost  forcibly  carried  off  his  wife  and  children.  They  kept  them 
for  about  five  or  six  weeks,  and  offered  to  take  back  Brammaji  into  caste 
privileges  again ;  but  he  stood  stead&st,  and  occasionally  sent  massages  to  his 
friends  not  to  ill-treat  his  wife  or  children,  which  they  seemed  inclined 
to  do,  and  also  sent  money  for  their  maintenance,  &c. ;  this  wsnt  onfor  ashort 
period,  but  one  day  they  unexpectedly  returned  to  his  house,  and  their  friends 
have  discontinued  troubling  them. 

A  SECOJfD  CONVSBT. 

"  I  have  now  to  inform  you  of  another  convert,  who  has  been  recently 
baptized.  This  is  a  man  from  Kimmedy,  and  a  n^hew  of  our  senior 
catechist,  Purushotum.  He  had,  in  the  course  of  many  years,  heard  the 
Grospel,  and  received  portions  of  scripture  and  tracts,  which  gradually 
convinced  him  of  the  truth  of  Christianity  and  the  falsehood  of  Hindooism. 
In  the  course  of  time  he  communicated  his  new  views  to  a  friend,  who  soon 
began  to  sympathize  with  him,  and  they  used  to  retire  to  the  woods  and 
other  secret  places  to  read  the  Word  of  God  and  pray.  This  state  of  thii^s 
aontinned  till  about  three  or  four  moatths  ago,  when  this  man,  whose  name  is 
Norsimloo,  resolved  to  leave  his  leanHy  and  friends  eaA  follow  Qmst.    S^  ha

came  to  the  catecbist  and  made  known  his  wishes  to  him.  Before  leaving  he 
told  his  wife  and  the  friend  above  alluded  to  what  he  was  going  to  do,  and 
added,  he  would  soon  return,  when  he  hoped  they  would  follow.  I  went  over 
to  Chittivalsah  as  soon  as  I  could  to  see  the  man,  and  as  I  found  that  he  had 
a  clear  idea  of  the  profession  he  was  about  to  make,  I  made  arrangements  to 
baptize  him.  After  a  short  discourse,  in  the  presence  of  a  very  large  crowd 
of  people,  he  gave  most  satisfactory  replies  to  the  questions  I  addressed  to 
him,  and  put  into  my  hands  his  '  poita,'  or  sacred  thread.  I  then  had  the 
pleasm'e  to  receive  him  into  the  little  band  of  Christians  at  that  place. 

''After  a  few  days,  it  was  deemed  advisable  that  he  should  go  to  TCimmedy, 
to  obtain  his  wife  and  child,  and  that  Mr.  Thompson  and  the  old  catechist,  his 
uncle,  should  accompany  him.  An  account  of  this  tour,  the  interviews  they 
had  with  the  people  of  his  village,  the  Bigah  and  others,  and  the  rough  treat- 
ment they  received  in  endeavouring  to  get  possession  of  his  wife,  &c.,  are  all 
noted  down  in  his  journal,  which  I  send.  This  man's  wife  is  now  with  him,  but 
they  would  not  give  up  the  child. 

"  The  case  of  this  convert  is  a  most  interesting  one,  and  forcibly  illustrates 
the  power  of  prayer.  This  is  the  only  relation  of  the  catechist  (excepting 
his  wife)  who  has  ever  come  out  from  heathenism,  though  he  has  waited  and 
prayed  for  more  than  thirty  years  for  it ;  the  joy  of  the  old  man  was  great, 
when  his  nephew  quite  unexpectedly  made  his  appearance  one  morning,  and 
expressed  his  determination  to  become  a  Christian. 

"  Let  us  hope  that  this  is  only  the  beginning  of  better  things,  the  dawn  of  a 
brighter  day  for  the  Kimmedy  country  and  the  neighbourhood.'' 


ALMORAH. 

In  the  absence  of  the  Rev.  J.  H.  Budden,  who  has  been  compelled  by  serious 
and  protracted  illness  to  revisit  England,  this  station  is  occupied  by  the 
Eev.  John  Hewlett.  Mr.  H.  has  continued  to  conduct  the  various  depart- 
ments of  the  Mission  with  much  assiduity,  and  has  gained  the  confidence 
and  esteem  of  the  European  community,  by  whom  the  Mission  is  generou^y 
supported. 

The  following  intelligence  which  our  brother  communicates  is  as  novel  as  it 
is  instructive  and  affecting.  A  House  of  Mebcy  for  the  reception  of  Lepers  has 
been  established  for  several  years,  and  the  labours  of  Mr.  Budden  and  his  late 
excellent  wife  have  been  unceasing,  both  for  the  temporal  and  spiritual  wel- 
fare of  these  poor  outcasts.  Many  indications  have  been  given  from  time  to 
time  of  the  interest  and  gratitude  with  which  these  labours  of  love  have  been 
received ;  but  recently,  Mr.  Hewlett  has  been  delighted  with  more  direct  and 
numerous  proofs  that  the  Gospel  has  reached  the  hearts  and  transformed  the 
lives  of  several  individuals  of  this  suffering  community ;  and  we  have  seldom 
had  to  lay  before  our  readers  intelligence  more  affecting  and  yet  more  eur 
oouraging  than  that  contained  in  the  following  repor^tized  by  LiiOOQLC 


FOR  SEPTEMBER,    1864.  267 

"  Almorah,  May  SOtli,  18e4. 
"  My  dear  Brother, — I  have  been  most  happy  to  comply  with  the  wish  of 
the  Directors  expressed  in  your  cordial  letter  of  January  26th,  that  I  shonld 
remain  in  charge  of  the  Almorah  Mission,  at  least  for  the  present. 

ENLARGED  AGENCY  AND  MORE  EXTENDED  LABOURS. 

"  For  the  past  two  months  Debi  Prasad  (whom  we  call  by  the  christian 
name  John),  the  head  teacher  of  the  upper  school,  has  been  taking  part  with 
me  in  preaching  in  the  bazar,  where  we  have  generally  large  and  interesting 
congregations,  not  only  of  the  lower  classes,  but  we  often  see  natives  of  all 
ranks  and  castes  stand  and  listen  to  the  glad  tidings  of  the  Gospel,  many  of 
whom  do  not  yet  feel  a  sufficiently  deep  interest  in  Christianity  to  overcome 
their  prejudices  against  the  more  formal  act  of  entering  a  buHding  where 
Christian  service  is  being  held.  As  we  have  been  able  to  find  time  to  embrace 
comparatively  few  of  the  favourable  opportunities  presented  to  us  of  preaching 
in  the  open  air,  visiting  and  holding  friendly  conversation  with  the  people  in 
their  own  homes  on  the  subject  of  their  souls'  eternal  interests,  and  making 
missionary  tours  in  the  district,  we  have  decided  upon  endeavouring  to  obtain 
a  native  catechist  or  evangelist  from  one  of  the  plains'  stations.  I  earnestly 
trust  the  Lord  may  dii*ect  us  in  finding  a  man  of  faith  and  prayer,  who  will 
come  to  us  in  the  power  of  the  Holy  Ghost,  and  prove  a  blessing  to  many. 

REDEMPTION  AND  BAPTISM  OF  A  HINDOO  CHILD. 

"On  Lord's  day  morning,  March  20th,  I  baptized  Jasuli,  the  littLe  girl 
referred  to  by  me  in  my  last  letter,  whom  we  rescued  from  being  sold  to  the 
vilest  characters,  who  would  have  brought  her  up  to  lead  a  life  of  the  grossest 
immorality.  We  now  call  her  Sarah  Field  Fisher,  in  accordance  with  the 
request  of  the  Sunday  School  children  of  Blandford,  who  send  an  annual 
collection  to  Mrs.  Hewlett  for  the  support  of  a  Christian  orphan  girl  to  be 
called  by  that  name.  She  is  a  nice  bright  little  girl,  and  is  as  happy  as 
possible  with  us ;  and  from  her  general  behaviour,  and  the  way  in  which  she 
strives  to  learn  the  Word  of  Gk>d  and  other  useful  lessons,  I  believe  she  bids 
fiair  to  become  all  that  we  can  desire. 

lepers'   ASYLUM. 

"One  of  the  most  interesting  branches  of  the  Mission  is  the  Lepers' 
Asylum.  As  leprosy  is  a  prevalent  disease  in  the  hills,  and  immediately  a 
native  is  seized  by  it  he  is  rejected  by  his  friends  and  considered  an  outcast, 
Mr.  Budden,  in  concert  with  the  supporters  of  the  Mission,  imbued  with  the 
mind  of  our  blessed  Lord,  who  had  compassion  on  the  lepers  and  healed 
them,  established  an  asylum  a  few  years  ago,  to  be  supported  by  voluntary 
subscriptions,  for  all  lepers  who  will  resort  for  shelter  and  support  there. 
The  number  at  present  is  ninety.  From  the  first  they  have  been  under 
Christian  instruction.  Mr.  Budden  and  the  head-master  of  the  Upper  School 
have  been  very  diligent  in  teaching  them  the  Scriptures.  Now,  there  is  a 
Native  Christian  employed  solely  to  teach  and  preach  to  them,  which  he 
does  daily. 

CONVERSION  OP  LEPERS. 

"  The  conversion  of  the  lepers,  whom  I  had  the  pleasing  duty  of  baptizing 
in  February  last,  proved  the  commencement  of  a  great  awakening  amongst 

K  8

most  of  the  iuBAtes  of  ihe  Asjlnm,  aMn  to  the  religions  revivals  in  Ghreat 
Britadn,  and  has   continued  to  sliow  every  satisfiactorj  sign  of  being  the 
work  of  God.    fiftiortly  after  their  baptism  five  more— two  elderly  mm^  one 
young  man  of  about  eighteen  years  of  age,  two  women,  and  a  little  girl  of 
about  fifteen  years  of  age — told  me  that  they  were  fully  convinced  that  the 
Gospel  revealed  the  only  way  of  life,  and  that  it  was  their  hearts*  desire  to 
trust  in  Jesus  for  salvation,  and  to  be  baptized  in  His  name.    At  length, 
satisfied  with  the  knowledge  of  the  Bible  they  possessed,  the  purity  of  their 
motives,  and  their  earnest  desire  to  trust  in  Christ  alone  for  salvation,  I 
welcomed  them  to  the  visible  fold  of  Christ  by  baptism  in  the  Mission  Chapel, 
after  an  appropriate  Hindust^i  sermon,  on  Matthew  xxviii.  18 — 20,  had  been 
preached  by  Mr.  Poy,  a  Wesleyan  Brother  who  was  passing  through  Almorah. 
In  addition  to  the  usual  congregation,  our  valued  friends  General  and  Mrs. 
Parsons,  and  Oolonel  Ramsay  were  present,  whose  efforts  and  liberality  have 
been  among  the  principal  means  of  founding  and  sustaining  the  Lepers' 
Asylum.    All  earnest  Christians  will,  I  am  sure,  sympathize  with  us  in  the 
great  joy  we  felt  on  seeing  these  our  sadly  afflicted  fellow-creatures  come  out 
from  among  the  heathen  and  profess  the  name  of  Christ,  with  hearts  glad- 
dened by  a  knowledge  of  His  grace,  and  filled  with  the  hope  of  eternal  life, 
instead  of  that  black  despair  which  must  be  the  necessary  effect  of  believing 
the  doom  pronounced  by  Hindooism  upon  all  aflfected  by  leprosy.    The  conduct 
of  all  the  eight,  since  their  baptism,  has  been  suck  as  to  encourage  us  in 
d^erishing  the  keighest  hopes  of  the  Axture,  clearly  indioatug  thai  thej  were 
actuated  by  no  other  motive  than  the  oonstrainix^  influence  of  the  love  of 
Christ.    On  the  one  hand,  they  mamfest  no  trace  of  having  set  their  heaits 
upon  obtaining  waj  additioiial  worldly  adrantage  through  en^raosng  Ghiia- 
tianii^;  nor  de  they,  on  ^te  other  hand,  seem  in  the  tilof^test  degree  to 
indulge  the  delusion  that  ^e  goal  has  been  reached,  and  that  now  thc^  hawe 
nothing  to  do  bnt  to  rest  in  indifference  with  the  satisfied  feehng  tfttat  their 
salvation  will  be  secured  by  virtue  of  their  baptism.    They  arduously  labour 
to  spend  their  time  in  the  most  profitable  manner — some  by  reading,  -ethers 
by  learning  to  read ;  sometimes  by  one  reading  aloud  to  the  others,  and  then 
by  talking  over  the  wondrous  truths  of  the  Gospel  together — as  though  new 
springs  of  life  and  energy  had  been  (q>ened  within  them,  which  fill  their  souls 
with  streams  of  delight  in  God,  and  earnest  longings  to  behold  more  ef  the 
excellency  of  the  knowledge  of  Christ  Jesus  the  Lord,  aad  to  realize  the  blessed 
fruits  and  joyous  experience  such  glorious  and  transforming  knowledge 
imparts.    I  know  of  nothing  that  ever  afforded  me  more  real  pleasure  than  the 
greetings  of  their  joy-lit  countenances,  with  which  they  welcome  me  when  I  ge 
amongst  them  to  speak  to   them  of  the  unsearchable  riches  of  Christ. 
Undoubtedly,  this  is  only  their  '  first  love ;'  and  it  is  possible  some  of  them 
will  prove  hke  those  who,  receiving  the  seed  in  stony  places,  anon  r^oiee 
over  it«  yet,  having  no  root  in  themselves,  when  persecntionB  and  triha- 
lations  arise,  become  offended.    May  the  Lord  grant  them  to  be  rooted  and 
grounded  in  love,  that  they  may  become  strong  in  His  grace  and  armed  with 
His  Divine  power,  so  as  to  be  prepared  to  meet  the  trials  and  conflicts  that 
certainly  will  overtake  them,  if  they  have  been  baptized  by  the  Holy  Ghost 
as  well  as  by  water.

G^ospel  th^  all  manifest  affords  sufficient  indieations  to  justify  4he  glowing 
hope  of  seeing  them  all  eventually  east  in  l^eir  lot  with  the  people  of  God.

INFLUENCE  PBODUCBD  TTPON  THE  HINDOOS  AND   MITSSUIiMANS  BT  THE 
BECEPTION  OF  THE  LEPEB8. 

"  The  impression  produced  upon  the  Hindoos  and  Mussulmans  of  Almorali 
by  this  awakening,  is  the  same  as  the  two  different  effects  produced  by  the 
Gospel  in  all  other  places.  To  some,  I  fear,  it  is  '  a  savour  of  death  unto 
death;'  while  to  others,  I  trust,  it  will  prove  'a  savour  of  life  unto  life.' 
Those  whose  minds  are  blindly  prejudiced  by  their  own  religion,  contemn 
Christianity  more  than  ever  for  condescending  to  favour  such  loathed  charac- 
ters.  They  wonder  what  good  they  can  expect  from  lepers.  They  cannot 
understand  the  disinterested  love  of  God.  In  preaching  to  them,  or  con- 
versing with  them,  after  one  has  dwelt  extensively  upon  the  infinite  mercy  of 
Christ  in  becoming  our  Mediator  and  Sacrifice,  and  in  going  about  upon 
earth  to  relieve  the  distressed  and  needy  and  to  heal  the  sick,  they  will 
immediately  mention  some  of  the  absurd  miracles  of  their  gods  as  conferring 
equally  great  benefits  upon  mankind.  Even  an  otherwise  intelligent  Mussul- 
man the  otlier  day  in  extolling  Mahomet  told  me,  as  though  he  considered 
it  his  crowning  miracle,  how  the  prophet  cut  the  moon  into  two  parts !  And, 
on  asking  him  what  good  Mussulmans  or  any  one  else  obtained  thereby,  his 
reply  was,  *  What  good  did  Jesus'!  do  by  cleansing  lepers  P'  But  there  are 
more  pleasing  effects  than  these  produced  upon  the  minds  of  those  who  have 
some  belief  that  the  Bible  is  the  Word  of  God.  One  gratifying  instance  is  to 
be  seen  in  the  case  of  a  Bijput,  who  made  known  to  me  a  short  time  ago  his 
desire  of  professing  Christianity.  He  said  that  he  was  first  attracted  to  read 
and  ponder  the  Gk>spel  while  listening  to  the  head-master  of  our  Upper 
School  and  myself  preaching  in  the  bazar  about  a  year  ago ;  and  that  he 
decided  to  seek  admittance  amongst  us  when  he  saw  the  lepers  baptised. 
I  hear  that  several  Brahmins  have  been  labouring  to  dissuade  him  from  joining 
us,  and  trying  to  poison  his  mind  against  Christianity  by  grossly  mis- 
representing  it.  But  he  remains  unwavering  in  his  purpose.  He  is  a  lame 
man ;  but,  besides  the  feuct  of  his  being  of  a  high  caste  affording  some  proof 
of  his  sincerity,  we  have  other  satisfiu^tory  reasons  for  believing  he  is  an 
earnest  inquirer  after  the  truth.  I  ho^  to  baptize  him  soon.  Thus,  after 
many  years  of  earnest  fiedthfrd  labour  having  been  spent  amongst  the  more 
educated  and  enlightened  of  the  inhabitants  of  Almonkh,  the  voice  of  God 
seems  to  be  commanding  us  to  go  into  the  highwajrs  and  hedges,  and  compel 
the  lame,  the  maimed,  the  afflicted,  and  the  destitute,  to  come  in  to  the  mar« 
riage  supper  of  the  Lamb.

POLYNESIA. 

SAVAGE   ISLAUT). 

Ii7TELLiG£NCE  from  this  important  field  of  missionary  labour,  both  from  the 
remoteness  and  isolation  of  the  island,  can  only  be  forwarded  at  distant  and 
uncertain  periods,  as  will  be  seen  from  the  date  of  the  following  letter  from 
the  Rev.  W.  G.  Lawes,  written  nearly  twelve  months  since. 

The  conversion  of  the  people  cf  Savage  Island  has  been  one  of  the  most 
striking  events  in  the  history  of  Polynesian  Missions ;  and  the  present  letter 
of  the  missionary  conveys  most  satisfactory  evidence  that  the  work  of  God 
among  all  classes  of  the  people,  so  wonderful  in  its  commencement,  has  been, 
during  the  two  years  of  his  laborious  ministry,  happily  consolidated  and 
widely  extended. 

Mr.  Lawes  and  his  devoted  wife  are  the  only  Europeans  on  the  island. 
They  are  assisted  by  several  well-qualified  Native  JEvangeliBts^  whose  labours 
cannot  be  too  highly  appreciated ;  but  they  require,  like  all  agents  of  this 
class,  the  constant  eversight  of  a  wise  and  practical  superintendent.  The 
inhabitants  of  the  island  exceed  5000,  and  it  is  not  therefore  without  strcmg 
reason  that  our  brother  Mr.  Lawes  pleads  earnestly  for  another  English 
missionary,  whom  we  trust  the  Society  will  be  able  to  send  to  his  help  on  the 
next  outward  voyage  of  the  "  John  "Williams." 

"  Savage  Island,  October  20th,  1863. 

A  GRATEFUL  BETBOSPBCT. 

"  My  DBAJt  Sib, — Since  I  last  addressed  you  we  have  completed  our  second 
year  of  missionary  life  on  Savage  Island.  We  have  experienced  much  of  the 
goodness  of  God,  and  can  truly  say,  *  Hitherto  hath  the  Lord  helped  us.' 
Few  have  entered  upon  missionary  work  under  more  auspicious  circumstances 
than  we  have.  Not  many  labourers  in  the  Mission-field  have  had  so  many 
encouragements,  and  so  few  discouragements,  as  we  have  had  during  our  two 
years'  labour  on  Savage  Island.  '  The  Lord  hath  done  great  things  for  us, 
whereof  we  are  glad.' 

"  We  have  now  a  pretty  good  knowledge  of  the  language,  and  are  able  freely 
to  converse  and  preach,  and  thus  scatter  abroad  the  seeds  of  Divine  truth. 

**  We  have  also  great  encouragement  in  the  progress  which  our  people  have 
made  in  spiritual  things.  In  contrasting  their  present  condition  with  what 
they  were  two  years  ago,  we  feel  assured  that  the  Holy  Spirit  has  been 
working  in  our  midst.  While  there  is  still  much  to  mourn  over,  there  is  more 
over  which  to  rejoice. 

"  Of  course  much  of  the  enthusiasm  manifested  on  our  ^^n^^a^as  proved

evsaieacent;  but  tke  real  lore  of  the  pec^k  for  ti^ir  iiij«ak»a^ 
It  is  not  BO  much  love  to  us  as  mdividuak,  em  lore  to  us  m  anbassadocs  for 
Christ ;  and  in  this  we  r^jodoe.  Tliere  is  giieat  cause  for  gratdtade,  ako,  in 
the  steadfoitneuM  aad  4i<mdstemcy  of  the  professed  followers  of  Christ,  both  in 
the  churches  and  in  the  congregations.  They  have  not»  indeed,  been  without 
their  trials.  The  repeated  visits  of  the  slavers  (of  which  I  gave  jou  the 
particulars  in  former  letters)  tried  their  faith  in  white  men,  and  they  came 
out  of  the  trial  strengthened*  and  with  a  firmer  £aith  in  the  true  and  only  Grod. 

SICKNESS  AND  ItOSTALITY. 

"During  the  last  four  months  dysentery  has  been  for  the  first  time 
^idemic  on  the  island.  Many  deaths  have  ocemred ;  but  how  different  has 
been  the  feeling  manifested  to  that  diiiq[>layed  on  some  of  the  westward 
islands  under  similar  circumstances !  The  hand  of  Gh>d  has  been  unirersallj 
recognised.  The  prcjudioe  and  opposition  which  for  so  many  years  were 
shown  towards  foreigners,  sprang  entirely  from  a  superstitious  fear  of  the 
introduction  of  disease ;  yet  in  no  one  case  have  we  heard  a  remark  attributing 
the  introduction  of  this  new  disease  to  us.  Several  Church-members  have 
died,  and  their  deaths  have  been  in  accordance  with  their  profession.  Their 
end  was  calm  and  peaceful,  giving  unmistakable  evidence  of  the  genuineness 
of  their  faith  i^  Christ.  One  woman  (wife  of  the  yoimg  man  who  was  shot  by 
the  slavers  in  March  last)  said,  just  before  she  died,  '  Kua  maama '  ('  It  is 
light*).  Thanks  be  unto  God,  there  is  *  light  at  eventide '  even  for  long-lost, 
dark,  degraded  Savage  Islanders.  We  doubt  not,  many  of  them  are  now  in 
the  world  of  which  Christ  himself  is  the  light ;  and  there  is  no  night  there. 

ADYANGE  IN  CIVILIZATION. 

^  In  temporal,  as  well  as  in  spiritual  things,  the  people  have  also  made 
progress.  Their  houses  are  far  better  now  than  when  we  came  two  years 
since.  Many  wretched  hovels  still  remain ;  yet,  on  every  hand  respectable 
whitewashed  cottages  are  springing  up.  We  give  them  aU  the  stimulus  we 
can  to  build  good  houses;  for  we  aie  convinced  that  the  houses  in  which  they 
live  exert  a  great  influence  on  their  lives  and  characters. 

*'  The  natives  are  better  clothed,  too,  than  when  we  came.  They  have  had 
more  vessels  that  have  visited  their  island*  and  with  these  they  have  traded 
honestly  and  honourably.  Cloth,  shirts,  trowBei*s,  &c.,  have  been  the  articles 
continually  in  demand. 

"  I  cannot  let  this  opportunity  pass  of  expressing  our  obligation  to  many 
captains  of  American  whalers  who  have  visited  us,  and  shown  us  great 
kindness.  They  have  invariably  traded  honourably  with  the  people,  and 
treated  us  with  great  kindness  and  respect.  We  are  under  still  greater 
obligation  to  C.  A.  XJnshelm,  Esq.,  of  Apia,  whose  schooner  has  visited  us 
l^ee  times  this  year  for  the  purpose  of  trading  with  the  natives.  He  most 
kindly  gave  a  free  passage  to  a  teacher  and  his  family  from  Samoa,;  besides 
bringing  books,  &c.,  without  charging  freight. 

MIBSIONABT  ITINSBANCY. 

''We  have  recently  made  a  tour  round  the  island,  visiting  all  the  out- 
stations.  At  every  place  the  one  question  was, '  When  shall  we  get  aaoi&er

"  In  making  a  drcuit  of  the  island  we  have  not  to  sleep  on  the  ground  in 
wretched  native  hnts :  our  teachers  vie  with  each  other  in  making  articles 
of  European  furniture  lor  cor  accommodation.  Erery  teacher's  house  has  its 
beds,  tables,  washhandstand,  chairs,  book-shelves,  rocking-chairs,  <&c.  Many 
of  these  would  not  disgrace  an  English  mechanic's  home.  The  Samoan 
teachers  work  well,  and,  with  the  exception  of  the  schools,  are  thoroughly  up 
to  the  mark. 

**  T^e  inquirers  at  ea<^  of  the  districts  have  increased  much,  both  in 
numbers  and  in  knowledge.  The  attendance  at  the  several  services  contxniies 
good,  thou^  some  of  the  more  distant  villages  are  ciying  out  for  a  teacher 
for  themselves.  The  schools  have  suffered  much  for  wast  of  proper  materials, 
books,  &c.  Wo  are  hoping  to  get  some  from  Sydney,  per  *  John  Williams,' 
next  month. 

"We  were  much  pleased  to  find  that  in  some  districts  the  Qiurch-members 
had  established  amongst  themselves  a  Saturday  evening  prayer  meeting. 
They  meet  in  each  others'  houses  for  prayei*  and  praise.  We  need  not  fear 
for  the  future  of  Niue  so  long  as  this  spirit  prevails. 

"  Each  village  has  a  few  wild  young  men,  who  would  rejoice  in  the  sub- 
version of  all  order  and  religion :  and  we  fear  these  will  increase  if  we  do  not 
get  another  missionary.  The  whole  island  would  give  him  such  a  welcome  as 
few  other  islands  in  the  Pacific  would.  The  whole  population  of  5000  souk  is 
tkirsting  for  the  waiter  of  life;  and  who  knows  whether  that  desire  miay  not 
te<»i  die  out  if  it  be  not  speedily  satisfied  P  The  more  I  know  of  my  work, 
the  more  I  am  convinced  that  if  Savage  Island  is  ever  to  have  the  Scriptures, 
she  nmst  have  at  least  two  missionaries. 

AUBIVAL  OF  GOSPELS  IN  THB  NATIVE  LANGUAOE. 

**  We  have  received  aai  instalment  of  500  copies  of  our  Oospels,  4Scc^  from 
Sydney.  It  is  the  finest  volume  Niue  has  ever  had.  It  comprises  the  four 
Gospels,  Acts,  Philippians,  and  the  three  Epistles  of  John.  It  is  beautifully 
printed — ^much  clearer  type  than  any  books  we  have  had  before.  The  typo- 
graphical errors  are  but  few.  Great  is  the  joy  which  these  books  have  caused 
on  our  island.  The  natives  are  anxiously  waiting  for  the  '  John  Williams '  to 
bring  the  whole  edition,  and  will  gladly  pay  the  cost  in  any  produce  which 
they  can  raise. 

"  Since  my  last  letter  to  you  in  July,  I  have  been  able  to  do  but  little  in  the 
work  of  translation.  Yery  much  of  my  time  has  been  occupied  in  preparing 
and  dispensing  medicines. 

•  **  The  natives  have  just  erected  a  fine  school-house  at  our  own  settlement 
here  (Alofi),  measuring  72  feet  by  24.  It  will,  we  hope,  be  of  great  use  to  us 
for  holding  schools,  meetings,  Ac.,  in.  We  are  sadly  in  want  of  school 
materials  of  all  kinds,  for  both  boys'  and  girls'  schools.  I  am  happy  to  say 
we  all  continue  well.  In  the  midst  of  much  sickness  God  has  mercifully 
preserved  us  and  ours  in  health  and  strength.  Mrs.  Lawes  unites  with  me  in 
kindr^ards.

AUSTRAL  ISLANDS. 

VISIT  OP    THE    BEV.   J.    L.   GKEEN. 

The  Gospel  Was  introduced  into  this  group  by  our  missionaries  from  the 
Society  Islands  several  years  since.  The  early  history  of  their  labours  was 
highly  encouraging ;  the  people  generally  received  the  "Word  of  God  with 
all  gladness,  having  heard  of  its  blessed  influence  upon  the  inhabitants  of  the 
neighbouring  groups.  The  islands,  however,  are  too  limited  in  extent  and 
population,  and  too  far  separated  from  each  other,  to  admit  of  the  permanent 
labours  of  an  English  missionary ;  but  they  have  from  time  to  time  been 
visited  by  one  of  our  brethren  frt>m  the  Georgian  or  Society  group ;  and  in 
the  early  part  of  this  year  the  Rev.  J.  L.  Gbeev,  of  Tahaa,  performed  this 
service  in  the  "John  "Williams,"  of  which  he  gives  the  following  report. 

Although  it  will  be  seen  that  the  state  of  the  Attstkil  Islai^ds,  with  a 
solitary  exception,  is  encouraging,  there  is,  in  connection  with  Rapa,  a 
mournful  sequel  to  the  intelligence  formerly  given  of  the  wicked  and 
atrocious  proceedings  of  the  Peruvian  slavers.  "We  had  before  learnt  that  the 
PeruYian  Government,  aroused  to  a  sense  of  the  cruel  conduct  of  its  subjects 
towards  the  inhabitants  of  several  islands  in  the  South  Pacific,  had  provided 
a  vessel  for  the  reception  of  such  of  the  enslaved  people  as  were  anxious  to 
return  to  their  several  homes.  The  number  of  those  rescued  from  slavery 
amounted  to  360,  but,  fit)m  the  crowded  state  of  the  ship,  and  the  cruelty 
they  suffered  on  board,  no  less  than  344  died  at  sea  and  were  buried  in  the 
deep.  The  sixteen  survivors  were  forced  by  the  captain  on  Rapa,  where  they 
spread  the  fatal  disease  under  which  they  laboured,  throughout  the  island, 
and  one  third  of  the  population  fell  victims.  At  the  time  of  Mr.  Green's 
visit,  seven  only  of  the  sufferers  who  had  sailed  from  Peru  remained.  Such 
has  been  the  horrible  result  of  the  recent  attempt  to  enslave  the  peaceftil  and 
Christian  inhabitants  of  Eastern  Polynesia.  More  than  2000  were  torn  from 
their  homes  and  kindred,  and  of  those  rescued  frt>m  bondage  probably  not  one 
will  return  to  report  the  sufferings  and  the  death  of  his  countrymen. 

*'  Tahaa,  April  Ist,  1864. 

"  My  deab  Sib, — It  is  with  great  pleasure  that  I  now  report  to  yon  the 
result  of  my  visit  to  the  Austral  Islands. 

*'  The  general  state  of  the  Mission  is,  with  one  exception,  very  encouraging, 
and  gives  us  good  occasion  to  praise  God,  and  lift  our  hearts  in  gratitade  to 
Him  who  disposeth  the  hearts  of  the  children  of  men. 

"  The  '  John  Williams '  arrived  at  Baiatea  from  the  westward  on  the  Ist 
of  February,  and  left  again  in  a  few  days,  taking  myself,  Mrs.  Green,  and  our 
little  girl  on  board,  en  route  for  the  Austral  Group,  and  after  three  days' 
pleasant  sail  we  reached  the  first  island :    .

healthful  state,  and  religiouslj  prosperous.  The  senior  pastor,  together  with 
his  colleague  Taputu^ie  of  our  Institution,  work  harmoniously  together,  and 
it  was  gratifying  to  me  to  find  the  inhabitants  of  this  lovely  little  isle  so 
happy  and  so  prosperous.  In  the  afternoon  we  held  a  pubHo  service  in  their 
chapel,  at  which  the  greater  portion  of  the  population  were  assembled.  The 
evening  was  spent  in  conversing  on  religious  topics,  and  in  the  morning  we 
held  another  public  service,  at  which  Malakai,  the  native  pastor  of  Borabora, 
preached.  The  people  show  their  appreciation  of  the  Gospel  and  its  privileges 
by  contributing  of  their  substance  for  its  support  and  extension.  It  was 
pleasant  to  find  them  treasuring  up  their  subscriptions  to  the  funds  of  oui* 
Society,  amounting,  for  the  past  two  years,  to  213  dollars.  They  also  made 
us  large  presents  of  food,  consisting  of  pigs,  turkeys,  yams,  taxo,  bananas, 
&c.,  &c.,  together  with  an  immense  quantity  of  native  cloth. 

"  On  the  morning  after  our  landing,  Mrs.  Green  and  Mrs.  Williams  came 
ashore,  and  the  people  were  soon  crowding  in  at  the  native  pastor's  house, 
which  is  an  excellent  building,  almost  to  the  suffocation  of  our  female  friends. 
After  sending  off  three  boat-loads  to  the  ship,  and  giving  necessary  counsel 
and  assistance  to  the  pastors,  we  took  our  farewell  of  the  people,  as  they 
assembled  on  the  beach,  and  at  four  p.m.  we  were  under  sail,  bound  for 

BIMATABA. 

"We  arrived  at  this  island  on  the  following  morning.  It  is  inclosed 
within  a  reef  with  but  two  small 'openings;  one  of  them  admits  of  a  boat 
passing  in  without  difficulty,  with  certain  winds,  but  with  a  south-east 
wind  blowing  almost  a  gale  we  dared  not  venture.  We  made  for  the  north 
side  of  the  island,  where  there  is  another  but  very  intricate  opening ;  we  bore 
np  for  this,  and,  finding  a  number  of  natives  on  the  beach,  we  lowered  the 
boat  and  made  for  the  land.  After  some  little  danger  and  greater  difficulty 
we  were  safely  landed  at  one  of  the  minor  settlements.  The  people  were  very 
urgent  for  us  to  remain  the  night ;  but  I  was  desirous  of  assembling  all  the 
X>eople  in  one  place,  and  therefore  I  at  once  proceeded  to  the  King's  settle- 
ment, and  the  people  from  the  other  two  were,  in  the  course  of  a  few  hours, 
assembled.  After  the  public  service  I  met  the  deacons  of  the  Church  for 
counsel,  and  found  that  difficulties  which  were  complained  of  last  year  had 
well  nigh  disappeared,  and  that,  since  the  departure  of  the  late  teacher,  the 
people  have  had  none  of  those  serious  disturbances  which  were  fonnerly  so 
frequent  and  injurious  to  the  cause  of  religion  and  civilization. 

"  Noa,  the  present  native  pastor,  seems  to  understand  the  character  of  the 
chief  and  his  people  much  better  than  his  predecessor,  and  thus,  without  com- 
promising his  principles,  is  able  to  maintain  the  purity  and  unity  of  the 
Church  independently  of  state  interference.  The  resources  of  the  island  ore 
much  more  limited  than  those  of  Rurutu.  The  people  had  collected  produce 
and  manufacture  to  the  amount  of  about  80  dollars,  and  arrowroot  for  the 
purchase  of  hymn  books  sold  on  the  island. 

"  The  Native  Pastor  was  on  his  way  to  Baiatea  to  attend  the  meetings  of 
Native  Pastors  to  be  held  oif  the  return  of  the '  John  Williams,'  so  that  I  had 
a  good  opportunity  of  seeing  the  state  of  the  people  as  they  really  are.  Their 
chi4>ei8,  as  referred  to  by  Mr.  Morris,  on  his  visit  to  the  island,  are  a  great

on  probation.    Leaving  Tubuai,  we  set  sail  for 

BAITAEYAX. 

"  We  arrived  here  on  Sunday  the  21st.  Canoes  came  off  to  the  vessel,  and 
I  sent  one  of  them  back  again  to  say  that  after  the  morning  service  on  board 
we  should  land ;  and  that,  at  the  close  of  their  morning  service,  I  should  like 
all  the  people  to  assemble  in  one  settlement,  which  I  named.  Accordingly, 
they  did  assemble,  and  on  our  arrival  we  were  greeted  by  about  400  people, 
through  whom  we  had  to  make  our  way  to  the  Teacher's  house,  shaking  handa 
and  arms  as  well  as  circumstances  would  allow.  After  resting  a  little  while, 
we  proceeded  to  the  chapel,  which  was  packed  with  people,  to  whom  I  preached. 
Afterwards  we  retired  to  the  house,  where  other  duties  awaited  me :  vi2L,  to 
clear  rq>  Scripture  difflctdties,  answer  queriesonthenatureandsubjectof  prayer, 
and  like  matters  of  inquiry,  until  long  past  midnight,  when,  worn  out  with 
fatigue,  I  intimated  to  the  people  my  desire  and  intention  of  retiring  to  rest. 
On  the  following  morning  the  same  work  recommenced  as  vigorously  as 
ever.  To  the  Society  they  contributed  about  58  dollars,  and  for  hymn  books» 
in  money  and  produce  they  paid  about  30  dollars. 

"  I  gave  the  Native  Pastor,  Hauti,  encouragement  to  press  on  in  his  work, 
and  endeavoured  to  impress  upon  the  minds  of  the  people  their  great  obligatioa 
to  the  minister  for  his  work  of  fiedth  and  labour  of  love  amongst  them.  The 
captain  having  arrived  from  the  vessel  to  carry  me  on  board,  I  was  reluctantly 
compelled  to  take  farewell  of  these  warm-hearted,  benevolent  people,  regretting 
that  they  will  have  to  wait  at  least  two  or  three  years  before  again  being 
visited  by  our  Missionary  ship.  And  so  we  pulled  off  to  sea,  and  in  about  two 
hours  were  on  board  the  vessel,  and  soon  afterwards  battling  with  a  strong 
head- wind,  doing  our  best  to  get  to 

BAPA. 

"  We  arrived  at  this  island  aftar  six  days'  very  unpleasant  sailing.  On 
our  arrival  our  worst  fears  were  more  than  realized.  We  soon  found  that 
disease  had  been  doing  its  work,  and  more  than  one- third  of  the  population 
had  been  removed  by  death.    The  people  complained  of  devastations  which 


FOB  SEFrBMBUt,  1864.  267 

disease  had  made  amongst  ihem ;  but  not  asue  of  tli«m  reflected  on  themselyes 
for  their  act  of  benerolenoe,  which,  alaa !  brought  destruction  on  their  land. 

^You  are  familiar  with  many  details  rejecting  the  PeruTian  vessels 
which  have  been  infesting  the  islands  of  the  Pacific — ^how  they  haye  de- 
populated some  islands,  have  murdered  manj  of  the  inhabitants  of  others, 
and  taken  off  perforce  scores  of  the  people  from  others.  One  of  these  vessels 
was,  however,  taken  by  the  Natives  of  JRapa,  and  the  captain  and  crew 
secured,  and,  with  the  assistance  of  foreigners  resident  on  the  island,  the 
vessel  and  its  obtain  were  taken  to  Tahiti,  and  safely  deposited  in  the  hands 
of  the  French  Grovemment.  They  were  there  regarded  as  a  lawftil  prize,  and 
600  dollars  were  awarded  to  the  Happans  for  their  courage  and  skill. 
Bat  a  short  time  afterward  a  reverse  was  experienced  by  the  poor 
natives.  The  Peruvian  Gk>vemment  took  a  stand  against  this  system  of 
slavery;  and  as  an  earnest  of^their  sincerity  they  chartered  a  vessel,  and 
re-embarked  360  natives  of  various  islands,  extending  from  Easter  Island,  on 
the  east,  to  the  Tokelau  group,  on  the  west.  Soon  after  leaving  the  ooa/st, 
small-pox  and  dysentery  broke  out  on  board,  and,  before  they  reached 
Rt^Hif  344  of  the  poor  creatures  had  been  committed  to  the  deep,  after  ahnosi 
bmtal  treatment  and  inhuman  neglect.  On  sighting  the  island  of  JRcspa, 
the  captain  bore  down,  and,  as  they  approached  the  shore,  they  lowered  a 
boat,  the  natives  from  the  shore  looking  on  with  mingled  feelings.  Soon, 
however,  they  were  enlightened  as  to  the  nature  of  the  visit  of  this  ship,  as 
the  captain  and  crew  conveyed  sixteen  poor  emaciated  human  beings  to 
their  shore,  with  a  peremptory  order  to  the  people  to  receive  them.  At  first 
ihey  hesitated,  seeing  disease  was  still  abiding  on  them.  The  captain 
replied,  saying,  he  would  not  take  them  any  farther,  and,  if  they  would  not 
recdve  them,  he  would  take  them  back  to  the  vessel,  and  then  throw  them 
overboard,  and  they  might  swim  for  their  Hves.  The  Rappans  then  received 
them  into  their  houses,  and  the  result  is  stated  above ;  over  one-third  of 
their  population  have  been  taken  off  by  the  disease.  The  Natives  of  Rapa 
had  contributed  in  their  distress  about  26  dollars  to  the  Society.  These 
dear  people  are  willing  to  do  something  for  the  Society,  but  they  have 
no  means.  I  had  thought  my  sympathies  towards  them  were  formerly 
strong,  but  never  did  I  feel  so  deeply  as  I  felt  when  leaving  the  shores  of 
Bapa  on  the  27th  of  February.  I  longed  to  remain  in  order  to  minister  to 
their  wants;  and  the  desponding  entreaties  of  JSscm  the  teacher,  to  be 
removed  to  Easter  Island,  of  which  iskad  they  have  traditionary  accounts, 
still  ring  in  my  ears,  and  his  words  are  still  fr^esh  to  me  as  he  said,  *  The 
people  are  gone— some  are  dead,  others  are  dispersed  through  fear,  and  I  am 
left  alone.'  I  pointed  him  to  God,  and  entreated  him  still  to  look  to  Him 
and  He  would  revive  them. 

"  On  leaving  Bapa  we  sailed  for  Tahiti,  where  we  arrived  on  the  9th  of 
March. 

"  I  remain,  yours  very  truly, 

"  Ekv.  Db.  TiDMijf ."  (Signed)       "  James  L.  Gbeik.

CHRONICLE. 


MADAGASCAR. 


SiKCE  the  publication  of  our  last  number,  we  have  received  from  several  of 
our  missionary  brethren  communications  from  the  Capital,  in  which  they 
all  concur  in  representing  the  increase  of  the  Native  Churches  in  that  city, 
and  the  enpouraging  prospects  in  the  surrounding  province,  and  especially  in 
the  Betsiubo  country,  distant  about  eight  days'  journey  to  the  South. 

In  reference  to  the  latter,  the  letter  of  the  Rev.  "William  Ellis,  which 
we  subjoin,  supplies  many  interesting  and  encouraging  particulars. 

It  will,  however,  be  seen  by  our  readers,  with  feelings  of  deep  regret,  from 
the  letter  of  Mr.  E.,  that  the  attachment  of  the  Queen  to  the  idols  and  super- 
stitions of  the  country  is  an  evil  omen  for  the  futiure :  and  our  hope  of  the 
stability  and  prosperity  of  Christianity  must  rest,  under  G-od,  in  the  increased 
numbers  and  influence  of  the  Native  Christians,  which  would  render  per- 
secution very  difficult,  if  not  impracticable,  for  any  political  party ;  and  on 
the  Treaty  with  England,  which  the  Government  is  anxious  to  have  ratified, 
and  which  contains  a  proTision  for  religious  fr'eedom  to  all  classes  of  the 
Malagasy  people. 

During  the  month  intelligence  has  reached  Europe,  through  the  medium  of 
Uie  French  Colony  of  Reunion,  that  an  important  change  has  occurred  in  the 
Native  Government,  in  the  removal  of  the  Prime  Minister  from  office,  and  the 
appointment  of  his  brother,  the  Commander-in-Chief,  in  his  stead.  It  has 
long  been  known  that  the  former,  especially  since  his  accession  to  power, 
has  become  addicted  to  habits  of  gross  intemperance.  It  is  stated  that 
under  this  evil  influence  he  had  become  overbearing  and  insolent  to  his 
colleagues,  and  also  to  the  Queen.  Should  this  information  prove  correct, 
we  trust  it  will  be  favourable  to  the  interests  of  Madagascar,  inasmuch  as  his 
successor  entertains  far  more  liberal  views  than  his  brother,  and  has  proved 
himself  desirous  of  promoting  intercourse  with  foreign  nations,  m  well  as 
advancing  the  civilization  and  improvement  of  his  countrymen,  o

274  MISSIONARY   MAGAZINE 

EXTRACTS   OF   LT^TTEES  FEOM   EEV.    W.   ELLIS,   DATED   JtTLT   1864. 

"  Since  my  last  letter  to  you,  which  was  sent  off  on  the  13th  June, '. 
Kessler  and  Pearse  have  returned  from  Tamatare,  and  Messrs.  Hartley  and 
Briggs  have  arrived  from  Mauritius. 

"  I  cannot  conceal  from  myself  that,  though  no  infringement  of  the  liberty 
of  the  Christians  has  yet  taken  place,  the  idols  continue  to  receive  from,  the 
Queen  increasing  public  recognition  and  homage,  and  the  regulations  of  the 
Government  are  becoming  increasingly  trying  and  difficult  to  the  Christians. 
Men  are  sometimes  called  to  work  for  the  sovereign  on  the  Sunday,  and 
to  attend  her  amusements. 

"There  is  no  other  prohibition  of  Christianity,  nor  infringement  of  the 
liberty  of  the  Christians;  but  more  than  this  cannot  with  truth  be  said. 
Our  great  comfort  is,  that  the  adherents  to  the  cause  of  Christ  continue 
to  increase.  Some  of  the  most  intelligent  among  the  people  say  that  the 
public  demonstration  in  favoiu*  of  the  idols  is  not  agreeable  to  a  large  pro- 
portion of  the  population,  even  to  those  who  are  not  avowed  believers  in  the 
Gk)spel.  This  increase  of  the  Christians,  and  the  growing  indifference  of  the 
people  towards  the  national  idols,  we  regard  as  grounds  for  hope  that  the 
Gospel  will  still  have  free  course  in  Madagascar,  and,  by  the  Holy  Spirit's 
influence,  prove  the  power  of  God  unto  the  salvation  of  many. 

"  I  have  recently  had  encouraging  accounts  from  Fianarantsoa,  the  Hova 
military  station  in  the  Betsileo  country,  where,  as  I  have  previously  informed 
the  Directors,  there  are  a  number  of  Christians — Hovas,  and  Betsileo.  They 
have  heard  that  additional  missionaries  were  expected,  and  write  to  aek  that 
one  may  be  sent  to  them.  The  brother  of  the  Betsileo  Grovemor  and  a  number 
of  the  people  are  now  here,  having  come  to  ask  for  a  missionary,  to  take  faini 
back  with  them.  I  am  informed  that  forty- six  unite  in  Church-feUowvhip,  and 
200  attead  worship,  besides  some  in  the  villages.  Fianarantsoa  is  eight  days' 
j<mniey  to  the  south  of  this.  The  Betsileo  are  a  docile  people,  and  azie  poli- 
tically united  with  the  Hovas,  the  Betsileo  being  incorporated  with  the  Hovas 
in  the  army  of  the  sovereign.  We  think  that,  whenever  we  can  extend  our 
(^erations  beyond  Imerina,  it  could  be  most  hopefrdly  done  in  this  direction. 

"  It  is  my  intention  shortly  to  make  a  journey,  accompanied  by  Mr.  Toy,  to 
Fianarantsoa,  to  encourage  the  Christians  there,  and  see  whether  it  would  be 
an  eligible  post  for  a  Mission  to  the  Betsileo.  Two  married  imasion. 
aries  would  be  required  for  that  station,  should  we  think  it  ddsinil)le  to 
commence,  as  soon  ae  the  men  can  be  found  and  the  fnncte  of  the  Society 
admit.  I  have  thought  Mr.  Briggs  might  form  one ;  for  I  think  one  dionld 
go  from  Antananarivo,  and  one  from  home. 

'*  I  have  many  applications,  chiefly  from  our  preachers,  who  know  a  very 
little  English,  for  small  English  Bibles  with  marginal  references.  They  find 
the  marginal  references  useful  in  the  preparation  of  their  sermons  and  their 
religious  intercourse  with  the  people.  If  the  Bible  Society  could  send  us  out 
a  dozen,  or  even  two  dozen,  English  Bibles,  with  references,  brevier,  plainly 
bound  in  calf,  they  would  be  acceptable  and  usefdl.  I  purpose,  if  possible, 
writing  to  the  Bishop  of  Mauritius  to  ask  if  he  has  a  few  in  the  Depository 
at  Mauritius  that  he  could  spare  for  us.  Our  stock  of  Scriptiu^large  as  it 
was,  is  nearly  exhausted."  ^^  '^"^  ^^  ^

CHINA. 

AMOy. 

We  have  received  the  nsual  half-yearly  Keport  firom  onr  missionary  labourers 
at  Hiis  station,  which  affords  continued  evidence  of  their  indefatigable 
exertions,  and  the  encouragements  supplied  by  the  providence  and  grace  of 
their  Divine  Master.  The  amount  of  actual  success  in  this  city  and  th^ 
surroimding  country  exceeds  that  of  any  other  Mission  in  China,  the  number 
of  native  Christians  amounting  to  full  300,  among  whom  our  brethren  have 
found  several  devoted  Christian  men,  whom  they  have  employed  as  fellow- 
helpers  to  the  truth. 

The  extension  of  the  Mission  has,  however,  provoked  opposition,  and  the 
Christians  at  some  of  the  village  statiosw  have  been  sabjected  to  cruel  perse- 
cution from  their  idolatrous  countrymen.  By  the  Treaty  between  the 
European  Powers  and  the  Ooremment  of  China  ttiese  evils  ought  to  be  pre- 
vented by  the  latter,  but  the  local  authorities  are  found  to  connive,  if 
not  to  encourage  this  opposition ;  and  it  is  difficult,  if  not  impracticable-, 
to  obtain  redress  by  any  direct  and  authoritative  influence  on  the  part  of  the 
Imperial  Government  at  Peking ;  but  strong  representations  were  made  ta 
Sib  Ebedekick  Bkuce  on  the  subject,  before  his  departure  from  the  Capital, 
and  we  indulge  the  hope  that,  by  his  intervention,  a  repetition  of  these  acts 
of  persecution  will  be  prevented. 

It  is  most  gratifying,  however,  to  learn  that  the  opposition  which  the 
native  Christians  have  encountered  has  proved  the  reality  of  their  faith,  and 
their  willingness  to  suffer  even  the  loss  of  all  things  for  the  sake  of  the  Lord 
Jesus  and  the  blessings  of  the  GospeL 

EXTENSION  OF  THE  OOSPEL. 

"  Amoy,  July  7th,  1864 
"  Dbab  Sib, — The  Gospel,  which  has  been  preached  in  this  place  and  in 
the  surroimding  regions,  not  only  continues  to  exert  a  powerful  influence  in 
places  where  it  has  formerly  met  with  success,  but  also  is  beginning  to 
manifest  its  influence  in  places  which,  xmtil  but  very  recently,  resisted  eveiy 
attempt  at  its  introduction.  The  Chinese  character  is  such  as  to  be  averse  to 
any  great  change,  and  more  especially  in  matters  of  religion,  in  which  the 
national  mind  has  been  trained  so  long,  and  with  which  there  are  connected 
so  many  associations.  Yet,  although  we  cannot  point  to  such  decisive  and 
extensive  results  as  are  witnessed  in  other  parts  of  the  Missionary  field — as 
in  Madagascar,  for  instance — still,  the  truth  as  it  is  in  Jesus  is  exercising  its 
appropriate  influence.  If  one  needed  any  evidence  as  to  the  irresistible 
nature  of  the  Gospel,  he  would  be  completely  satisfied  were  he  to  become 
acquainted  with  the  history  of  its  progress  in  this  city  and  its  neighbourhood. 
"  In  Amot  we  still  continue  vigorously  to  prosecute  the  work  of  preaching. 
Our  chapels  are,  on  the  whole,  veiy  well  attended,  and  a  great  deal  of  interest 
is  shown  by  the  majority  of  those  who  enter  to  hear.  In  T'ai-San  we  have 
daily  preaching;  and,  as  the  place  is  situated  in  a  most  favourable  position  as 


"276  MISSIONARY  MAGAZINE 

far  as  thoroughfare  is  concerned,  the  congregations,  except  on  very  rare 
occasions,  are  large  and  encouraging.  , 

**  In  KwAN-A-LAi  there  are  also  daily  services  held,  and  more  recently  we 
have  had  an  unusually  large  attendance  of  people ;  and  the  fact  that  our  chapels 
are  so  largely  attended  is  a  matter  of  great  joy  to  us.  The  truths  of  the 
Gospel  are  thus  being  made  known  not  only  to  the  inhabitants  of  this  place, 
but  also  to  great  numbei's  who  come  here  from  the  neighbouring  towns  and 
Tillages  for  purposes  of  trade,  &c.  We  are  frequently  gratified  to  find 
that  many  who  have  thus  heard  the  Gospel,  without  having  come  into  direct 
contact  with  the  missionaiy,  possess  some  knowledge  of  its  leading  doctrines. 
We  feel  that,  although  our  preaching  may  not  be  attended  by  any 
immediate  or  striking  results  in  conversions  from  the  large  numbers  that 
listen,  a  gradual  impression  is  being  made ;  and  we  may  hope  that  the  seed 
which  is  now  being  sown  will  erelong  produce  adequate  results  to  the  glory 
of  Christ. 

"  Besides  the  two  large  chapels  before  mentioned,  we  have  daily  preaching 
in  a  small  chapel  which  we  have  opened  in  Chioh-lo,  and  which  has  been 
mentioned  in  a  former  report.  With  regard  to  this  place  we  are  happy  to  be 
able  to  give  the  most  favourable  accoimts.  Besides  the  daily  preaching, 
there  are  also  reg^ar  Sabbath  services,  which  are  exceedingly  well  attended. 
The  chapel  is  placed  in  a  good  position,  and  generally  there  is  no  difficulty  in 
obtaining  a  good  congregation. 

FORSAKING  ALL  FOR  CHRIST. 

"In  connection  with  this  place  we  would  mention  the  case  of  a  man 
lately  received  into  the  Church.  He  formerly  got  his  Uving  by  making 
gambling- cards.  He  had  for  many  years  been  a  hearer  of  the  Gospel, 
but  never  could  be  induced  to  give  up  a  trade  which  was  deemed  in- 
consistent with  the  profession  of  Christianity.  Living  in  the  neighbour- 
hood of  the  chapel,  he  became  a  regular  attendant  at  our  services,  and 
always  professed  his  belief  in  Christ.  For  a  great  number  of  years  he 
had  given  up  the  worship  of  idols.  His  heart  was  at  length  touched  by  the 
Holy  Spirit,  and  he  professed  his  readiness  to  abandon  his  trade  for  some 
more  lawful  one.  In  order  to  show  his  sincerity,  he  determined  to  bum  the 
implements  he  had  used  in  the  manufacture  of  the  cards,  publicly,  and  in 
front  of  the  chapel,  which  he  did,  in  the  presence  of  the  Christians  and  a 
number  of  his  heathen  neighbours.  This  was  a  practical  evidence  of  the 
sincerity  of  his  belief,  as  the  loss  entailed  upon  him  must  have  been  very 
considerable.  Had  he  been  willing,  he  could,  with  the  greatest  ease,  have 
sold  the  things  he  burnt  to  great  advantage. 

"  In  addition  to  the  services  thus  held  in  the  chapels,  we  have  our  regular 
prayer  meetings  held  alternately  in  the  large  chapels,  also  three  weekly 
meetings  for  the  benefit  of  the  female  members  who  are  unable  to  attend  the 
evening  services.  The  schools  in  connection  with  the  Churches  are  still  being 
carried  on. 

"  In  Amoy,  during  the  half-year,  we  have  received  into  the  Church  ten 
persons.  One  of  these  was  a  man  who  had  been  formerly  excommunicated, 
but  who,  on  repentance,  and  after  a  lengthened  trial,  was  again  admitted  into 
Church-fellowship. 


POR  OCTOBBB,  1864.  277 

"  With  regard  to  the  country  stations,  the  following  statements  will  enable 
you  to  see  the  work  that  is  being  carried  on,  and  the  progress  that  has  been 
made  since  last  we  wrote.  In  reference  to  Kwan-K'au  and  An-bin  Mr.  J. 
Stronach  writes — 

THE  WBATH  OF  MAN  PBAISING  GOD. 

"  *  The  Churches  at  the  stations  of  Kwan-K*au  and  An-bin  have  continued 
to  prosper  during  the  last  half-year.  At  Kwan-K'au  I  had  the  pleasure  of 
baptizing  six  converts  on  Sunday,  the  13th  of  March.  There  had  been,  pre- 
viously to  that  date,  a  considerable  interest  excited  in  favour  of  Christianity 
in  several  of  the  villages  around,  and  some  of  these  converts  belonged  to 
these  villages.  The  baptism  of  these  men  had  enraged  some  of  the  underlings 
in  the  local  mandarin's  employment,  and  they  found  means  to  apprehend,  on 
a  false  charge,  the  brother  of  one  of  the  village  converts.  Through  ike 
consul,  as  well  as  personally,  I  made  many  attempts  to  get  this  man  delivered 
from  his  imprisonment,  and  these  were  at  last  successful.  He  was  let  go 
without  any  attempt  being  made  to  substantiate  the  false  charge  preferred 
against  him.  Finding  their  efforts  in  this  direction  unsuccessful,  the  in- 
dividuals referred  to  incited  those  under  their  influence  to  annoy  the 
worshippers  by  throwing  stones  at  the  chapel ;  but  this  had  no  effect  in 
diminishing  the  number  of  the  converts.  On  the  contrary,  additions  were 
made,  till  the  average  attendance  on  the  Lord's  day  services  amounted  to 
sixty.  This  increased  the  fury  of  the  eneniy,  who  at  last  got  together  a  body 
of  ten  or  more  individuals,  and  on  Sunday,  the  26th  of  Jrme,  while  the  native 
preacher  was  conducting  Divine  service,  rushed  into  the  chapel,  pulled  two  of 
the  worshippers  out,  and,  without  any  reason  assigned,  beat  one  of  them 
severely  on  the  head,  and  made  an  assault  by  stones  on  all  who  were  inside. 
Seeing  they  had  done  considerable  mischief  to  the  man  in  question,  they  soon 
after  dispersed.  I  appealed  to  Mr.  Phillips,  who  is  in  charge  of  the  British 
Consulate,  and  he  got  the  Taou-tai  to  examine  the  wounded  man,  and  to 
promise  t<>  punish  those  who  attacked  him.  It  remains  to  be  seen  whether 
these  promises  will  be  carried  into  effect ;  but  this  violent  treatment  has  not 
prevented  still  further  increase  in  the  number  of  professed  worshippers ;  and 
there  is  good  ground  tohope  that,  both  in  respect  of  numbers  and  zeal,  this  infant 
Church  will  continue  to  prove  that  the  Divine  Spirit  is  exerting  His  almighty 
influence.  There  will  soon  not  be  room  in  the  chapel  for  the  accommodation 
of  those  who  wish  to  attend ;  and  as  the  room  at  An-bin,  furnished  by  the 
converts  there  gratis  for  Divine  worship  (to  whose  numbers  accessions  con- 
tinue to  be  made),  is  also  too  small,  we  think  it  advisable  to  erect  a  chapel  at 
an  intermediate  village,  to  which  all  around  could  come  and  be  assured  of 
accommodation.  The  estimated  expense  of  this  amounts  to  £300,  and  we 
hope  the  Directors  will  make  a  grant  to  this  amotint  for  this  object.'

bring  to  light  His  purposes  of  mercy.  We  wish  we  could  report  similar 
successes  at  our  other  stations.  In  respect  to  Chano-chiett  Mr.  Macgowaa 
writes,  'During  the  past  six  months  there  has  been  nothing  to  indicate 
that  a  more  fayourable  feeling  in  reference  to  the  Gospel  has  been  awakened 
in  this  great  city.  Whilst  there  is  no  direct  hostility  shown,  and  no  acts 
committed  which  would  indicate  a  spirit  of  opposition  to  the  Grospel,  there 
appears  no  tendency  or  disposition  to  believe  in  Christianity.' 

THB  CHA71>  AND  THB  WHEAT. 

"  In  HAi-CH'infa,  as  &r  as  the  actual  increase  of  members  is  concerned, 
there  is  Httle  to  encourage.  During  the  last  half-yeaar  th^re  has  been  no 
efidence  of  any  change  of  feeling  in  the  minds  of  the  people  in  reference  to 
Christianity.  They  are  so  wh<^y  absorbed  in  the  pursuit  of  this  world's 
business  that  they  cannot  be  induced  to  give  up  all  and  follow  Christ.  In 
the  surrounding  villages,  however,  i^ere  has  of  late  been  manifested  a  more 
kmdly  feeing  towards  us,  and  in  many  places  the  Gospel  has  been  listened 
to  with  great  willingnees.  We  have  at  present  four  inquirers.  One  of  these 
has  for  several  months  been  a  most  diligent  attendant  on  the  Lord's  day. 
Although  his  home  is  distant  from  the  chapel  quite  six  miles,  he  has  not  been 
known  to  miss  coming,  notwithstanding  the  most  inclement  weather.  His 
wife  also,  who  is  a  sister  of  one  of  the  members,  although  unable  to  come  in 
consequence  of  the  distance,  is  a  most  sincere  Christian.  Har  case  diows  in 
a  peculiar  manner  how  God  employs  affliction  to  bring  man  to  Himself. 
Daring  the  last  year,  when  the  cholera  raged  so  violently  in  this  neighbour- 
hood, this  woman  was  seized.  Every  remedy  that  the  Chinese  employ  in 
such  cases  was  used  for  her  restoration ;  the  idol  even  was  carried  into  her 
presence  in  the  hope  of  effecting  a  cure;  but  all  in  vain.  At  last,  when  she 
appeared  on  the  point  of  dying,  she  managed  to  utter  the  words,  '  Pray, 
pray  V  Her  sister,  who  had  been  informed  of  her  condition,  prayed  to  God, 
that  He  would  now,  if  it  were  ffis  will,  manifest  'His  power  in  the  presence  of 
the  heathen,  and  save  her  sister.  €k>d  was  pleased  to  hear  her  prayer,  and 
from  that  time  her  sister  began  to  recover.  The  effect  of  this  on  the  mind  of 
the  woman  was  very  great.  Ever  since,  she  has  worshipped  the  true  Qod ; 
and  I  am  glad  to  say  that  in  the  village  in  which  she  resides  the  people 
profess  great  willingness  to  be  taught  the  Gk)spel.  During  the  half-year  we 
have  been  compelled  to  excommunicate  one  and  suspend  another. 

"From  the  above  you  will  be  able  to  perceive  the  difficulties  and  the 
encouragements  of  the  work  in  which  we  are  engaged.  A  review  of  the  years 
during  which  Missionary  work  has  been  carried  on  in  this  region  is  such  as 
to  encourage  us  in  every  way ;  and,  as  we  see  our  chapeb  filled  Sabbath  by 
Sabbath  with  humble,  but,  we  trust,  devout  believers,  our  hearts  rejoice  in  the 
great  work  which  God  has  wrought  in  this  place.

COICVEESION   OF    A  NATIVE  T0T7TH. 

"We  have  repeatedly  had  the  pleasure  of  recording  the  ctmversion  to  Chris- 
tianity of  several  native  young  men,  pupils  in  our  Missionary  Institution  in 
Calcutta  ;  and  from  the  following  letter  of  the  Rev.  J.  P.  Ashton  it  will  be 
seen  that  our  brethren  in  Madilis  have  also  been  favoured  with  like  encourage- 
ment. Indeed,  from  this  Institution  twelve  young  men,  after  a  valuable  course 
of  christian  and  ministerial  training,  have  gone  forth  to  assist  our  brethrea 
in  their  several  spheres  of  labour  in  the  Madras  Presidency ;  and  we  tnast 
^lat  the  young  convert,  whose  case  is  described  by  Mr.  Ashton,  may  follow  in 
ihear  footsteps.  The  bitter  opposition  which  the  youth  suffered  from  his 
fiitli«r,  and  mother,  and  nearest  kindred,  should  excite  our  tenderest  sym- 
pathy as  well  as  our  thankfulness  to  God,  who  sustained  him  imder  the 
ordeal,  and  enabled  him  to  maintain  his  faith  although  it  TVas  tried  as  gold

once  more,  to  write  you  a  few  words,  and  to  inform  you  that  all  goes  on 
well  here. 

AN  anxious  INQUIBSB. 

"  Some  two  months  ago  a  youth  of  the  Chetty,  or  merchant  caste,  belonging 
to  the  eighth  class  in  our  Institution,  became  aiudous  about  his  soul.  He 
had  learned  the  folly  of  idolatry,  and  saw  that  no  salvation  could  be  obtained 
through  the  god  Siva,  whom,  under  various  forms,  he  had  hitherto  worshipped. 
Two  things  had,  by  God's  blessing,  been  chiefly  instrumental  in  bringing 
about  this  state  of  mind.  The  first  was  an  address  delivered  by  one  of  oiu* 
teachers  at  the  Sunday-school.  The  subject  was  the  baptism  of  Jesus,  and 
the  voice  from  heaven  declaring  him  to  be  the  beloved  Son  of  God.  He 
cannot  exactly  explain  the  impression  it  made  upon  him,  but  it  led  him 
to  think  of  that  Saviour  in  whom  the  Lord  was  weU  pleased.  This  fact  is  very 
gratifying  to  us,  and  confirms  us  in  the  opinion  we  have  of  the  importance  of 


280  MISSIONARY  MAGAZINE 

this  Sunday  service  in  our  Instatntion.  About  half  the  school  attend,  and 
after  the  Bible  and  Catechism  lessons  have  been  taught,  they  all  sit  in  order 
facing  the  desk,  which  serves  as  a  pulpit.  Then  a  regular  service  is  gone 
through.  Of  course  the  whole  is  adapted  to  the  minds  of  youth  as  much  as 
possible,  and  it  is  delightful  to  witness  the  attention  paid  by  all  alike.  For 
there  is  no  distinction  made :  Christian  and  heathen,  Brahmin,  Rajput,  Chetty, 
Sudra,  and  outcaste,  all  sit  side  by  side.  At  another  time  the  lad  was  reading 
one  of  the  minor  Tamil  poets  in  his  class,  and  a  discussion  on  the  gods  came 
up.  He  was  one  of  the  most  earnest  in  their  defence;  but  the  teacher  brought 
forward  a  well-known  tract  which  shows  forth  the  follies  of  idolatry,  and  the 
lad  was  silenced ;  nay,  more,  he  was  convinced,  and  he  could  never  lose  the 
impression  then  made.  Some  time  after  he  heard  some  preaching  by 
Mr.  Metzger  on  the  pier.  Mr.'  M.  persuaded  him  to  visit  us  regularly  for 
further  instruction.  This  he  did  for  some  time,  coming  every  morning  and 
evening  to  Cotelingum's  house. 

HIS  DECISION  FOB  GHBIST. 

"At  length  his  parents  formd  out  what  he  was  thinking  of;  for  he  refused 
to  worship  the  idols  in  the  house,  took  off  his  sacred  thread,  and  would  not 
put  on  a  new  one,  also  cut  off  a  part  of  the  sacred  lock  of  hair  at  the  back 
of  his  head  called  the  hudamy.  They  locked  him  up  one  day,  but  he  managed 
to  escape.  He  begged  us  many  times  to  protect  him ;  but  we  told  him  to 
consider  well  and  wait  awhile,  as  his  parents  might  relent ;  but  the  opposite 
proved  to  be  the  case.  The  father  bought  a  chain  to  chain  him  up,  and 
meditated  taking  him  away  hundreds  of  miles  up  country  to  Nagpore.  So, 
at  the  lad's  earnest  entreaty,  we  took  him  in.  His  father  immediately  came, 
and  some  other  relations  soon  after.  All  their  entreaties  and  arguments 
were  in  vain.  He  would  not  change  his  resolution.  They  begged  him  to 
come  home  and  attend  school  as  usual,  promising  that  he  would  not  be 
molested  in  his  new  faith;  but  he  knew  this  was  all  false,  and  that  as 
soon  as  they  got  him  in  their  power  they  would  not  scruple  to  use  any  means, 
however  cruel,  to  force  him  back  to  heathenism.  "We  told  him  to  go  if  he 
wished;  but  he  preferred  to  stay  here  and  learn  more  of  our  religion,  and  give 
up  the  evil  practices  of  his  countrymen.  Later  in  the  day  the  father  col- 
lected a  mob,  and  tried  to  force  an  entrance  into  the  house,  but  this  was 
prevented.  The  father  was  admitted,  but  we  could  not  have  the  mob  inside. 
The  police  assisted  us  in  restoring  order.  It  was  an  anxious  time.  The 
fieither  and  relatives  are  wealthy,  and  we  feared  they  might  take  the  matter 
to  court,  and  try  to  prove,  by  lying  and  forgery,  that  the  lad  is  under  age. 
They  have  not,  however,  attempted  it  as  yet,  and  we  hope  they  may  not. 
He  is  eighteen  years  of  age,  and  fully  competent  to  judge  for  himself.  He 
continues  firm  in  the  faith,  and  is  making  much  progress. 

PEBSECTTTION  FOB  THE  TBUTH'S  SAKE. 

"  To  add  to  his  trials,  we  find  that  not  only  have  they  excluded  him  from 
his  caste,  and  pronounced  that  they  will  never  receive  him  back  again,  but  the 
fSather  also  has  performed  funeral  ceremonies  for  him,  and  counts  him,  here- 
after, as  one  dead !  May  God  give  him  grace  to  remain  firm  unto  the  end, 
and  to  endure  all  his  tiials  with  patience.    May  he  long  be  spared  to  be  a

I  wished  that  a  few  weeks  might  pass  that  his  firmness  might  be  well  tested 
before  informing  70a.  He  will  have  many  trials  and  many  temptations,  but, 
if  he  will  continue  to  seek  the  help  of  God,  His  grace  will  be  found  sufficient 
for  all  things.

INTERIOR  OF  SOUTH  AFRICA. 

HISSIOK   TO    THE   HATEBELE. 

This  Mission,  commenced  six  years  since,  has  hitherto  presented  formidable 
obstructions  and  painful  discouragements,  while  no  direct  instance  of  success 
in  the  conversion  of  the  people  has  yet  occurred  to  cheer  the  hearts  of  our 
missionaries.  The  greatest  of  all  obstacles  to  their  progress  has  been  fotind  inr 
ike  character  and  influence  of  the  aged  chief  MosELEiLiTSE,  whose  cruel 
nature  and  iron  rule  can  scarcely  be  described.  It  may,  however,  be  sufficient, 
to  say  that  the  lives  of  his  multitudinous  subjects  are  absolutely  under  his 
control ;  that  year  by  year  hundreds  are  sacrificed  to  his  caprice  and  selfish- 
ness ;  while  among  surrounding  tribes,  to  the  utmost  extent  of  his  power,  he 
spreads  desolation  and  death,  carrying  away  thousands  of  women  and  children 
into  hopeless  slavery. 

It  could  not  be  expected  from  such  a  tyrant  that  Christian  missionaries' 
could  hope  for  any  direct  encouragement ;  and,  although  Moselekatse  has; 
generally  abstained  from  open  opposition,  they  have  been  well  aware  that, 
his  secret  and  powerful  influence  was  employed  against  them.  Rut  the 
chief  is  tottering  under  the  weight  of  years  and  inflrmities,  and  the  power 
of  persecution  must  soon  pass  irom  his  feeble  hands ;  and,  should  his  son 
become  his  successor  in  the  government,  there  is  reason  to  expect  that  hc- 
wiU  be  favourable  to  missionary  labour  and  the  improvement  of  his  people. 

But  we  thank  God  that,  notwithstanding  the  numerous  and  grievous  trials, 
of  our  faithful  and  self-denying  missionaries,  they  have  continued  **  steadfast 
and  immovable,  always  abounding  in  the  work  of  the  Lord."  In  this  sterile- 
and  most  unpromising  soil  they  have  laboured  and  have  not  fainted ;  and 
''  as  the  husbandman  waiteth  for  the  precious  fruit  of  the  eartii,  and  has 
long  patience  for  it  until  he  receive  the  early  and  the  latter  rain,"  so  they 
have  toiled  and  waited  and  prayed  until  "  the  Spirit  be  poured  forth  from  on 
high,"  when  even  the  African  wilderness  shall  become  ^*  a  fruitful  field."' 
Already,  indeed,  there  are  some  indications  of  the  better  times  coming*. 
A  cloud  in  the  distance  may  be  discovered ;  and,  though  at  present  not 
larger  than  a  man's  hand,  yet  we  hope  and  believe  that  it  is  the  sure  presage 
of  showers  of  blessings  which  will  more  than  realize  our  largest  anticipations, 
and  more  than  repay  the  labours  and  the  sufferings  of  our  devoted  brethren.

The  following  somewhat  extended  but  instmctive  and  interesting  com- 
mnnication,  from  the  Rev.  T.  M.  Thoicas,  contains  a  brief  history  of  the  If  ate- 
bele  Mission  from  its  commencement,  together  with  its  present  state  and 
prospects. 

ABBITAL  OF  THE  MISSIONABIBS. 

"  We  left  Cape  Town  in  Augast,  1858.  After  a  very  tedious  journey,  we 
arrived  at  the  royal  kraal,  where  we  found  Moselekatse  seated  upon  a  chair, 
surrounded  by  several  of  his  corpulent  wives  and  some  of  his  chief  men. 
Moselekatse — of  well-proportionate  stature  and  size — struck  me  as  appearing 
veiy  thoughtful,  cautious,  and  reserved,  but  wishing  to  be  agreeable.  For 
three  weeks  he  remained  with  ub»  and  treated  us  kindly,  more  so  than  could 
have  been  reasonably  expected  from  a  heathen.  This  kindness,  however,  was 
soon  to  be  replaced  by  cruelty.  One  morning,  without  acquainting  us  with 
what  was  to  take  place,  the  king  with  his  wives  and  chief  m^i  were  seen  leaving 
the  kraal  in  a  northerly  direction.  Mr.  Moffat,  for  the  sake  of  ascertaiBing 
what  the  movement  meant,  followed  for  some  distance ;  but  when  af^roaohing 
the  waggons  he  waa  turned  back  by  the  soldiers  attending  on  his  Mjjesty. 
This  was  not  much,  compared  with  what  followed ;  for,  in  the  course  of  a 
few  days,  we  were  forbidden  to  move  from  the  dirty,  unhealthy  spot  where  we 
were :  near  a  kraal  which  contained  hundreda  of  cattle,  whose  bellowing  con* 
spired  with  the  dancing,  fighting,  and  biting  of  swarms  of  rats  to  deprive  us  of 
sleep  at  night.  Messengers  were  sent,  one  after  another,  to  inform  us  we 
were  not  to  move  from  where  we  were,  in  order  that  we  might  not  see  the 
country,  for  we  were  spies.  We  might  not  shoot  game,  for  it  belonged  to 
the  king ;  we  might  not  even  buy  a  little  milk ;  and  we  should  present  the 
king  with  a  waggon-load  of  goods.  Thus  for  five  weeks  we  were  roughly 
handled ;  but  at  the  end  of  that  period  it  pleased  the  Lord  to  change  the 
minds  of  our  persecutors,  and  to  turn  our  dark  and  discouraging  prospects 
into  bright  and  promising  ones. 

BXTEirr  OF  mobblbkatbb's  cottntby. 

''The  country  which  Moselekatse  considers  his  own  extends  fr^m  the 
Biver  Shashe  in  the  south  to  the  Zambezi  in  the  north,  and  from  the  Souga 
in  the  west  over  the  Mashon  Mountains  in  the  east;  that  is,  about  400 
square  miles.  Its  lowlands  are  generally  covered  with  grass  and  bushes : 
its  mountains,  generally  low,  are  covered  with  small  trees,  such  as  the  sugar- 
bush,  wild  plimi-tree,  and  the  native  bread-tree.  The  Shashe,  together  with 
all  the  other  rivers  within  about  sixty  miles  on  the  north  side,  run  eastwardly, 
and  join  the  Limpopo ;  but  all  the  others  run  westw2u*dly  until  they  reach 
the  west  of  the  centre  of  the  country,  after  which  they  take  a  northern 
direction  and  pour  into  the  Zambezi.

"  The  love  of  slave-holding  is  very  often  the  cause  of  war,  for  captives 
always  become  slaves.  In  common  with  all  African  tribes,  the  Matebele  are 
exceedingly  fond  of  being  served :  their  motto  always  is,  not  to  do  anything 
themselves  which  may  be  done  by  others.  The  ccmsequence  is,  that  every 
one,  from  the  child  of  five  to  the  man  of  sixty,  endeavours  by  all  possible 
means  to  become  a  master;  and  when  he  cannot  get  servants  in  his  own 
country  he  will  go  in  search  of  them  into  other  countries.    This  has  often 


FOR  OCTOBEB,    1864.  288 

(een  done  by  the  Matebele  since  our  staj  with  them.  Hundreds  together  set 
off  in  a  direction  in  which  is  a  certain  tribe,  sleeping  bj  day  in  thickets  and 
traTdHng  by  night,  until  at  tlft  dawn  of  an  appointed  day,  from  different 
points,  and  while  the  defenceless  and  innocent  objects  of  their  cruel  inten- 
tions are  still  asleep,  they  suddenly  take  sereral  villages  by  storm,  murdering 
all  the  men,  and  leading  the  terrified  women  and  children  captives.  On  their 
way  back;  when  they  sleep,  the  helpless  c^tives  are  fastened  to  a  tree,  or 
eoupled  with  soldiers;  and,  haying  amyed  at  home,  they  either  make  thoae 
whiom  they  have  captured  to  be  their  own  servants,  or  sdl  them  to  others  for 
cattle,  or  ocnm,  or  karosses,  Sec. ;  the  value  of  two  about  ten  years  of  age  being 
that  of  an  ox  or  cow. 

FAVOTJBABLE  CONDITION  OP  SLATES. 

"  This  practice  of  kidnapping  may  seem  in  the  one  party  to  be  cruel  in  the 
highest  degree,  and  most  painful  to  the  other.  But  in  Europe  we  have  as 
much  real  slavery  and  tyranny  as  there  is  in  the  interior  of  this  continent, 
for  the  AMcan  slave  is  almost  his  master's  equal,  and  ^oys  from  the  begin- 
ning the  privileges  of  a  child ;  he  is  called  a  child,  and  he  looks  upon  his 
master  and  mistress  as  being  in  every  respect  his  parents  again.  Although  a 
bondsman  or  a  servant,  in  some  respects  he  is  not  in  bondage,  neither  does 
his  servitude,  especially  in  Moselekatse's  country,  convey  the  true  idea  of  the 
position  of  the  slave ;  for  he  may  any  day  with  impunity  leave  his  master, 
and  go  wherever  he  likes  within  the  boundary  of  the  kingdom;  or  he  may 
soon  become  a  master  himself,  and,  instead  of  labouring  for  his  own  master, 
lie  may  send  his  servant  to  do  it :  moreover,  by  diligence  and  care,  he  may 
become  richer  and  more  powerful  than  he  who  led  him  captive.  Neither  is 
the  quickness,  the  thoroughness,  the  exertion,  the  punctuality,  the  readiness, 
and  the  handiness  required  by  the  European  master  known  in  A£dca;  for 
while  in  Europe  the  difficulty  is  want  of  time,  in  this  country,  espeoially  in 
the  interior,  the  question  is,  *What  can  be  done  with  itP'  Hence,  whilst 
Europeans  are  watching  with  impatience  the  well-disposed  and  willing,  but 
slow  native,  the  iunocent  African  looks  upon  him  with  amazement  and  pil^, 
being  unable  to  make  out  what  has  put  his  master  so  much  out  of  good 
bumour. 

FOBM  OF  GOYEBNMENT. 

"  The  form  of  government  of  the  Zulus,  like  that  of  most  of  the  Afrioaa 
nations,  may  be  called  patriarchal.  The  Matebele  are  a  tribe  of  Zulus,  and 
their  govemm^it  neariy  the  same  as  that  of  the  other  tribes.  Their  cMei 
is  at  the  same  time  their  king,  priest,  prophet,  and  something  more ;  though 
it  is  not  easy  to  define  what  that  something  is :  he  is  also  their  £ftther  and 
master,  ffis  eountry  is  divided  into  villages  or  small  towns,  the  average 
population  of  each  being  300  or  400.  The  village  is  circuitous.  In  the  centre 
»  the  InkoUa,  or  royal  court,  where  the  king  and  his  relatives  reside ;  out- 
side the  fence  of  this  Inkolla  is  the  cattle-kraal,  in  which  there  would 
generally  be  thousands  of  heads  of  cattle;  surrounding  the  cattle  kraal, 
between  two  hedges,  is  a  row  of  houses  in  which  the  people  live.  In  each  of 
these  villages  is  a  Jutuna  (chief  man),  to  whom  all  the  affairs  of  such  a 
Tillage  are  made  known,  and  who  has  power  over,  and  is  considered  to  have 


284  lassioNABT  magazine 

a  claim  to  the  obedience  of  all  in  connection  with  his  town.  The  chief  man 
IB  responsible  to  the  king  for  everj  event  of  moment  happening  within  the 
district  of  which  he  has  been  made  the  leade»and  ruler,  and  is  bonnd,  on  pain 
of  death,  to  make. it  known  to  the  same. 

PRACTICE  OP  POLTaABffT. 

"  The  Matebele  practise  polygamy,  and  in  proportion  to  the  position  held 
wonld  be  the  number  of  the  wives  of  each  man.  Hence  the  king  has  some 
hundreds,  who  are  to  be  seen  everywhere  throughout  the  land.  On  account 
of  this  inhuman  system,  the  woman  is  very  degraded,  being  nothing  better 
than,  indeed,  not  so  well  ofT  as  men  slaves,  and  the  matrimonial  state  is  to  her 
generally  more  of  a  curse  than  a  blessing;  while,  on  account  of  jealousy 
between  his  wives,  the  poor  man  is  never  without  fear  or  in  actual  danger  of 
being  despatched. 

SUPEBSTITIONS  OP  THE  NATIVES. 

"  Moselekatse*s  subjects  are  made  up  of,  I  suppose,  forty  or  fifty  different 
tribes;  some  the  elephant  worshippers,  some  the  rhinoceros  worshippers, 
others  the  eland,  buffalo,  lion,  or  crocodile  worahippers,  and  others  there  are 
who  worship  different  kinds  of  snakes. 

"  The  few  real  Zulus  in  the  country  seem  to  worship  their  king  and  the 
spirits  of  their  ancestors  more  than  any  other  object;  but  such  worship 
consists  in  endeavouring  to  appease  more  than  revere  and  trust.  For 
instance,  should  the  king,  who  is  said  to  be  the  ruler  of  the  skies  as  well 
as  of  the  lower  regions,  not  pour  down  the  longed-for  and  precious  contents 
of  the  clouds  as  usual,  his  heart  is  said  to  be  sore  and  black,  or  angiy,  and, 
until  these  feelings  shall  have  been  replaced  by  others  more  agreeable,  no 
rain  will  fall.  Hence,  to  bring  about  this  end,  they  will  endeavour  to  find 
out  the  cause  of  this  great  misfortune,  which,  when  revealed,  will  generally  be 
that  some  town  or  towns  have  offended.  This  will  occasion  the  murder  of  all 
the  chief  men,  the  scattering  of  women  and  children,  and  the  complete 
destruction  of  such  town  or  towns ;  and  thus  the  king's  mind  will  be  appeased, 
as  a  general  rule.  But  the  clouds  and  thunder  being  so  deceitful  and 
difficult  to  be  understood,  the  rain-maker,  notwithstanding  his  caution  and 
cunning,  sometimes  finds  himself  in  a  dilemma,  and  is  glad  enough  to  seek 
the  help  of  his  wives  and  others,  who  fast  and  pray  to  the  spirits  of  their 
ancestors,  offering  a  sacrifice  to  them.  A  Matebele  desiring  to  sacrifice  to 
his  ancestors  sends  for  an  ox  or  goat  from  his  kraal,  which,  when  placed 
before  his  door,  he  presents  before  the  departed  spirit,  saying  something  to 
this  effect :  '  O  our  fathers,  this  is  an  ox  which  I  consecrate  unto  you,  in 
order  'that  your  heart  may  be  white  towards  us,  that  we  may  be  permitted 
to  walk  the  eaa-th  in  good  health  and  be  prosperous,  that  ike  number  of  our 
cattle  may  largely  increase,  that  our  gardens  may  be  fruitful,  and  that  aU 
our  enemies  may  fall  before  us.' 

"  Another  way  of  pacifying  these  unseen  beings  is  by  burying  the  bones  of 
those  who  are  killed  and  left  to  be  eaten  by  wolves  in  the  neighbourhood. 
An  instance  of  this :  the  king's  chief  wife,  the  Mother  of  the  Town  (Inyati), 
sent  a  man  to  me  one  morning,  to  tell  me  they  were  going  to  buiy  the  bones 
of  the  dead  that  day,  in  order  that  they  might  have  rain,  and  hence  I  most 
not  dig  that  day,  for,  if  I  did,  we  should  see  no  rain.    I  told  him  that  to  bury 


FOB  OCTOBBB,  1864.  285 

Hie  bones,  nay,  the  bodies  of  their  dead,  not  some  time,  bat  soon  after  they 
died  or  were  killed,  was  very  proper;  that  it  was  a  wonder  to  me  how  they, 
being  human  beings,  were  not  taught  even  by  their  own  feelings  to  put  an 
end  to  that  horrible  custom  of  feeding  wolves  with  the  flesh  of  their  friends 
and  relatives ;  but,  whether  they  buried  them  or  not,  that  would  neither 
prevent  nor  bring  rain.  And,  seeing  their  idea  as  to  how  rain  was  made  and 
given  was  so  erroneous,  my  giving  up  digging  that  day  would  be  a  great  sin 
against  the  Creator  and  true  Qiver  of  all  good ;  hence  I  could  not  listen  to 
the  queen  in  matters  of  that  kind. 

TREATMENT  OF  THE  SICK. 

"The  Matebele  believe  and  practise  charms,  both  to  ward  off  and  cure 
diseases.  For  example,  when  a  disease  has  taken  off  one  village,  the  native 
doctors  are  sent  by  the  king  to  charm  neighbouring  ones,  which  they  do  by 
sprinkling  the  inhabitants  of  such  villages  with  tobacco-water,  charging  them 
neither  to  go  out  of  their  villages  nor  allow  any  connection  with  the  one  in 
which  the  disease  is.  The  caution  is  good,  but  the  water  is  delusive.  Again, 
when  a  disease  has  taken  hold,  of  some  of  a  number  of  men,  they  are  all 
charmed,  as  after  returning  from  war.  In  that  case  the  returned  parties, 
having  come  near  their  respective  homes,  are  obliged  to  wait  outside,  although 
oft;en  against  their  wish,  until  the  doctor  comes,  who,  on  arriving,  sprinkles 
them,  as  in  the  other  case ;  then,  their  houses  having  been  swept  out  and 
smeared,  they  are  allowed  to  enter. 

"  When  an  invalid  becomes  dangerously  ill  he  is  removed  into  the  field, 
where  a  small  hut  is  built  for  him,  and  where  no  one  is  allowed  to  go  but  the 
doctor  and  nurse,  until  the  poor  man  dies,  which  generally  happens  in  a 
short  time.  As  soon  as  the  event  is  known  his  relations  and  friends  seem  to 
beoome  mad ;  the  men  casting  away  the  little  clothing  they  may  have  about 
them,  and  the  women  taking  fast  hold  of  each  other,  setting  up  the  most 
doleful  and  melancholy  weeping,  which  soon  proves  to  the  mind  of  a  looker-on 
that  they  have  no  hope,  any  more  than  other  Glentiles.  Having  given  way  to 
their  passion  in  this  way,  some  of  the  men  go  out  into  the  field  and  make  a 
grave,  and  as  soon  as  possible  the  corpse  is  laid  therein ;  the  grave  being 
secured  from  wolves  by  heaping  stones  upon  and  thorns  around  it.  The 
mpumers,  and,  indeed,  all  who  may  have  had  anything  to  do  with  a  burial, 
pass  on  to  the  nearest  river,  for  the  sake  of  washing  themselves  therein,  and 
thereby  purifying  themselves  from  the  dead,  all  the  time  making  the  most 
nnearthly  noise,  and  asking, '  Where  shall  we  see  him  P'  '  Who  can  find  him  P' 
'  Who  will  fill  his  place  in  the  house,  in  the  field,'  &c.P 

MISSIOKABT  ENCOUBAOEMEKTS. 

'*  The  above  remarks  may  serve  to  throw  some  light  upon  the  position  of 
ihe  missionary  in  the  Matebele  countiy,  and  to  some  extent  to  indicate  those 
oppositions,  hindrances,  and  obstacles  which  in  that  country  do  and  will 
stand  in  the  way  of  the  prosperity  of  the  Gospel ;  while,  at  the  same  time,  our 
minds  would  be  prepared  with  adoring  gratitude  to  praise  the  Qod  of  all 
grace  for  any  measure  of  success  which  a  mission  to  teach  a  dark  and 
degraded  people  might  have  realized.    For  some  months  after  our  arrival  we 


386  MTS6IONARY  MAOAZINB 

were  onable  to  do  anytliing'  more  than  look  'about,  and  endeaTonr  to  catch 
some  words  of,  as  we  thoaght,  the  most  difficult  and  strange  langaage.  After 
a  good  deal  of  entreaty,  however,  the  king  sent  for  two  interpreters,  throngh 
whom  we  were  able  to  address  the  natives  every  Sabbath ;  but,  being  oon- 
vineed  that  what  we  said  did  not  improve  by  passing  through  a  filter,  we  set 
to  to  aeqnire  the  Setabele,  b^^inning  as  early  as  possible  to  talk  wii^  them 
in  iheir  own  tongne.  Ever  since  that  time  two  services,  one  in  Setabele  and 
another  in  Sechuana,  have  been  held  at  Inyati  on  the  Lord's  day,  and  during 
the  week  other  villages  have  been  and  still  are  visited.  These  villages  at 
present  are  three  in  number,  and  those  attending  Divine  services  are  upon 
the  whole  attentive ;  but  ere  we  can  reasonably  expect  any  amount  of  success 
a  g^eral  change  must  take  place  in  the  coTrntiy;  a  change  which  woxdd 
re^dace  that  restlessness,  want  of  confidence  in  one  another,  and  that  love  of 
war,  which  prevail  throughont  the  land,  by  f&dings  of  a  very  different  nature. 
To  bring  about  such  a  change,  should  that  be  allowed,  at  an  early  date,  manj 
more  missionaries  should  be  sent,  many  more  stations  established;  for 
although  there  is,  as  it  were,  a  candle  burning  in  the  centre,  and  a  gradual 
change  coming  over  the  few  who  are  near  it,  should  that  be  the  only  place 
in  the  country  where  the  Gospel  light  shines  P  Why,  999  out  of  every  1000  of 
the  subjects  of  Moselekatse  may  be  years  before  they  know  much  about  it. 

A  HAPPY  COHTSAST. 

"  Looking  back  upon  the  time  of  our  arrival  at  Inyati,  and  companag  our 
position  then  and  that  of  the  present,  we  cannot  but  thank  God  and  take 
courage;  for,  whereas  at  first  we  could  not  move  from  our  station  withoot 
the  king's  permission,  now  we  are  at  liberty  to  go  wherever  we  like.  Theai, 
we  could  not  tell  the  people  about  the  Saviour,  unless  the  king  called  then 
together  at  his  own  kraaL.  Now,  we  can  preach  where,  when,  and  to  whon 
we  please.  Then,  if  any  one  put  on  a  shirt,  he  was  lau^ied  to  soom ;  but 
now,  hundreds  have  clothes,  and  wear  them  with  impunity,  even  in  the 
presMM^e  of  the  king.  Then,  we  were  annoyed  and  insulted  many  times  dailj^ 
and  that  by  all :  we  w^re  suspected  as  enemies.  Now,  we  are  treated  witli 
reepect  and  confidence  by  all ;  while  we  have  many  faithful  friends.  Then, 
the  doctrines  taught  being  so  new,  and  the  want  of  means  whereby  to  oonvcFf 
thoughts  to  the  native  mind  so  great,  it  was  impossible  to  do  much.  Now, 
hundreds  having  so  often  heard  the  Gospel  preached  in  their  own  language^ 
and  two  small  books  printed  in  the  same  language,  we  may,  humanly  and 
naiiHrally  speaking,  expect  much  more  to  be  done. 

EABLY  HISTORY   OF  MOSELEKATSE. 

"  It  may  be  interesting  to  you  to  know  something  of  the  history  of  Mosele- 
katse, or  Moselekadzi,  and  the  Matebele.  Moselekatse  was  the  son  of 
Matjobana,  by  the  daughter  of  another  chief.  The  child  being  bom,  and  the 
mother  able  to  go  about,  according  to  the  custom  of  the  tribe  the  few  chief 
men  (men  in  whom  the  king  had  perfect  confidence)  were  summoned  to  the 
royal  hamlet.  These  men  were  told  that  the  name  of  the  child  was  Mosele- 
katse, and  that  he  was  the  heir  to  the  throne ;  that  they  must  take  a  number 
of  cattle  which  would  be  sufficient  for  the  prince  and  his  mother  to  live  upon 
at  her  father's  house,  xmtil  the  child  grew,  and  until  the  death  of  Matjobaaia, 


FOR  ocroBBB,  1864.  387 

at  wkkh  time  both  should  rettmi*  and  Mosdekatse  be  enthroned  as  the 
fotnre  king  of  the  Mateb^e.  Moeelekatse  haying  grown,  and  Matjobana 
having  died,  the  former  (as  the  cnfitom  of  the  tribe  is)  was  called,  and,  at  the 
same  time,  all  the  chief  men  of  the  Matebele  were  summoned  to  appear  in  the 
royal  kraal  at  the  dawn  of  daj. 

HIS  ACCESSION  TO  THE  SOYElUCiaKTT. 

''  At  the  appointed  time,  when  the  chief  men  were  all  seated  in  a  circle  in 
the  kraal,  and  each  one  having  a  shield  in  the  left  and  a  spear  in  the  right 
hand,  the  prince  made  his  ai^>earance  in  the  centre  of  them,  and  a  voice  from 
the  rojal  hut  was  heard  to  say,  '  That  is  jonr  king.  His  name  is  Moselekatse, 
the  son  of  Maijobana.'  The  Matebele  king  being  only  a  yoimg  boy,  neigh- 
bouring chiefs,  always  being  ready  to  take  advantage  of  any  such  oj^rtonities 
to  gain  a  few  cattle  and  slaves,  would  naturally  covet  the  little  he  might  have. 
There  are  two  different  accoxmts  of  what  took  place  upon  his  immediately 
aBsnniing  the  chieftainship.  One  is  this : — IJaka,  a  very  powerfhl,  cruel,  and 
greedy  n^hbouring  chief,  having  heard  of  the  brave  Matjobana's  death, 
despatched  an  army  to  attadr  the  Matebele  in  their  unprepared  state,  and 
•ucceeded  easily  in  taking  all  they  had,  and  leading  them  and  their  young 
chief  captives.  Moselekatse,  being  a  shrewd  and  expert  young  man,  soon 
miaed  himself  in  the  estimation  of  IJaka,  who  made  him  a  commander-in- 
ohief  of  his  army.  Tjaka,  coveting  s<»ne  one's  cattle,  sent  Moselekatse  with  a 
force  against  a  neighbouring  diief  The  attack  proving  successful,  a  large 
Humber  of  cattle  was  taken  and  brought  into  the  country  of  Tjaka.  Tjaka,  as 
these  Zulu  chiefs  always  do,  expected  the  young  man  to  g^ve  him  the  cattle; 
but  the  latter  seems  not  to  have  relished  the  idea,  and  kept  most  of  them  in 
his  own  possession.  The  soldiers  being  attached  to  their  leader,  it  seemed  to 
Ijaka  better  to  wait  awMLe;  and,  rather  than  risk  his  own  life,  he  would  at 
oaee,  but  in  a  quiet,  cautious  way,  put  Moselekatse  to  death ;  consequently  a 
plan  suggested  itself  to  his  mind.  He  invited  the  son  of  the  great  ]kb.ijobana 
to  come  and  visit  him ;  and,  pretendiDg  to  be  very  fond  of  the  skilftd  warrior, 
ha  slaughtered  many  oxen  and  made  a  great  feast.  To  this  feast  most  of  the 
king's  confidants  were  invited*  to  whom  he  disclosed  his  thoughts  and  plans, 
falling  them  that  in  the  evening,  when  Moselekatse  would  be  at  the  meat- 
pots,  and  all  his  friends  defenceless  and  guardkss,  they  must  be  well  prepared 
to  fall  upon  them  and  despatch  them..  The  conspiracy,  however,  was  dis- 
covered by  Moselekatse,  who  had  taken  care  to  inform  his  adherents,  and  had 
arranged  to  flee,  with  all  he  had,  a  little  before  the  appointed  time  for  his 
murder.  Thus  Tjaka  was  greatly  disax^Knnted,  and  Moselekatse  escaped, 
taking  with  him  all  his  people,  some  o£  IJaka's  own  soldiers,  and  as  many 
cattle  as  he  could. 

A  SECOND  YBBSIOK. 

*•  But  there  is  another  story  of  this  period  of  Moselekatse  told ;  in  fact,  an 
old  man  who  knew  him,  and  was  with  him  at  the  time,  was  my  informant. 
What  he  said  was  the  following : — Maljobana  having  died,  and  his  son  made 
chief,  Iwiti,  a  powerful  neighbouring  chief,  attacked  him,  took  him  and  his 
people  prisoners,  leading  them  captives.  Moselekatse^having  been  kept  in 
bondage  for  some  time,  Iwiti  sent  the  most  powerfdl  of  his  fighting  men 


288  MISSIONARY  MAOAZINS 

against  Tjaka.  This  was  the  time  for  the  Matebele  to  escape,  which  ihey 
did,  taking  the  whole  of  the  country  before  them,  and  leaving  only  devasta- 
tions  and  heaps  of  wretched  men  behind,  nntil  they  reached  the  country  of 
the  Bakhatla,  where  they  settled  down  for  some  years.  This  country  is 
north-east  of  Knruman,  some  900  or  400  miles.  It  was  then  Mr.  Moffat 
visited  Moselekatse  first,  as  well  as  other  missionaries.  By  the  time  the 
cruel  strange  chief  had  settled  down  in  the  country  of  the  Bakhatla  his  name 
had  filled  the  land  with  terror ;  all  the  tribes  around  him  trembled  to  hear 
of  him,  and  not  without  cause,  for  they  knew  his  past  histoiy,  and  anticipated 
a  repetition  of  what  he  had  done.  This  anticipation  turned  out  to  have  been 
too  correct ;  for,  as  tribe  after  tribe  became  known  to  him,  Moselekatse 
attacked  and  killed  the  men,  and  led  captive  the  women  and  children,  taking 
every  head  of  cattle,  and  whatever  else  would  be  of  any  use.  At  last,  and 
almost  at  the  same  time,  three  commanders  were  sent  against  him;  one  fix>m 
the  Griquas,  one  from  Tjaka,  and  one  from  the  Boers.  Now,  being  fright- 
ened, Moselekatse  saw  it  was  time  to  leave  those  quarters,  and  accordingly 
left,  taking  a  north-east  direction,  subduing  eveiy  tribe  in  his  way,  and 
would  not  have  stopped  until  he  had  crossed  the  Zambezi,  had  he  not  been 
turned  back  by  the  Zulus.  Having  remained  behind  his  father  in  the 
Makokolo  country,  one  of  the  king^s  sons,  with  five  or  six  chief  men,  made 
up  their  minds  to  form  themselves  into  a  tribe ;  and,  the  young  prince  having 
been  made  chief,  they  were  beginning  to  promise  themselves  a  bright  future^ 
when  Moseldcatse,  turning  back,  and  hearing  what  had  taken  place,  put 
them  all  to  death.  Moselekatse  settled  in  the  above  country,  where  subse- 
quently he  was  visited  by  Mr.  Moffat,  two  or  three  times,  previous  to  our 
arrival  in  1859. 

HEALTH  OF  THE  MISSIONABIES. 

"  I  left  Messrs.  Sykee,  McKenzie,  and  Moffat,  jun.,  with  their  feunilies,  in 
good  health  and  spirits,  in  September  last.  Subsequently,  however,  Mr. 
McKenzie  and  family  have  retraced  their  steps  about  350  miles,  to  a  pec^e 
called  the  Bamangwato,  a  tribe  of  Bechuana,  whose  chief  is  Sekomi.  The 
letters  which  I  have  received  from  my  dear  colleagues  during  my  absence  from 
the  scene  of  my  labours  are  encouraging.  The  king  has  given  them  full 
permission  to  establish  another  station  wherever  they  may  think  pax^per. 
'  Go,'  said  he  to  them, '  view  the  country,  and  choose  for  yourselves  whereat 
to  settle ;  only,  return  to  tell  me  where)  you  are.  Go :  the  country  is  be- 
fore you.*  ' 

PLEASING  TBAITS  OF  GHABACTBB  IN  THE  DESPOTIC  CHIEF. 

"  Moselekatse  is  capable  of  being  very  cruel  and  very  kind.  Of  this  we 
have  had  many  instances.  For  a  slight  offence  he  may  without  hesitation 
murder  hundreds.  And  should  he  take  it  into  his  head,  he  can  be  as  kind  as 
any  earthly  parent.  An  instance  of  how  kind  the  despot  Moselekatse  can  be 
will  serve  as  the  conclusion  of  this  letter.  When  leaving  his  countiy,  accord- 
ing to  custom  I  called  at  his  kraal  to  wish  him  good-bye.  I  found  him  sur- 
rounded by  several  of  his  wives  and  chief  men.  Seeing  my  two  little  bpys,  he 
cried  out,  in  a  pitiful,  feeling  tone, '  Take  the  poor,  motherless,  dear  ones  to  the 
waggon,  for  I  cannot  bear  the  sight.'  Turning  his  face  towards  me,  he  said, 
*  My  child,  I  am  very  sorry  for  you.    She  who  is  no  more  was  lovely  and

beloved :  we  all  loved  her,  and  are  sad  after  her.  But  go,  my  son,  and  may 
yonr  jdomey  be  a  pleasant  and  prosperous  one.  May  you  find  favour  in  the 
sight  of  all  you  meet,  until  the  day  we  shall  welcome  you  back  again.  Do 
not  be  long;'  and,  presenting  me  with  an  ox,  a  sheep,  and  a  goat,  he  said, 
'  Take  these  as  meat  for  the  road.'  The  next  day  a  man  overtook  me  again, 
bringing  another  sheep  and  another  goat  sent  by  him.  What  a  joy  to  us, 
and  glory  to  the  blessed  Saviour,  would  it  be  to  see  this  wonderful  man  at  the 
feet  of  Jesus !  What  encouragement  to  labour  on  in  the  dark  places  of  the 
earth,  the  certainty  of  our  God  being  able  to  do  all  things  I

DEATH  OF  MRS.  BIRD,  OF  SAMOA. 

We  have  again  to  perform  the  mournful  task  of  recording  the  death  of 
another  of  our  devoted  female  labourers.  Mrs.  Bird,  the  wife  of  the  Rev.  P. 
G.  BntT),  of  the  Navigators  Islands,  has  been  called  from  the  field  of 
toil  to  her  heavenly  rest.  She  left  England  in  apparent  perfect  health  less 
than  four  years  since,  and  entered  on  her  missionary  work  with  her  devoted 
husband  with  remarkable  cheerfulness  and  energy;  but  she  was  called  to 
suffer  severely  in  the  successive  removal  of  her  children ;  and  in  the  early 
part  of  1863  she  caught  a  severe  cold,  accompanied  with  inflammation  of  the 
lungs,  which  ended  in  consumption.  The  following  particulars  of  her  unex- 
pected sickness  and  death,  from  the  pen  of  her  deeply  afflicted  husband, 
addressed  to  some  beloved  friends  of  his  departed  wife,  residing  in  Scotland, 
will  be  received  with  tender  sympathy  by  every  Christian  reader : — 

"  Malua,  Upolu,  Samoa,  April  19th,  1864. 
"  My  vbbt  deab  Db.  and  Mbs.  Spencb, — ^My  beloved  wife  is  no  more. 
She  fell  asleep  in  Jesus  on  the  afternoon  of  Saturday,  the  2nd  inst.,  in  the 
Island  of  Nine.  Her  end  was  peace.  For  some  time  she  had  given  up  all 
hope  of  recovery,  and  was  anticipating  her  removal  to  the  '  better  country.' 
But  the  summons  at  last  came  very  suddenly.  That  morning  I  spoke  with 
her  at  family  worship,  told  her  that  none  of  us  had  any  hope  of  her  recovery, 
azid  affectionately  pointed  her  to  Jesus,  urging  her  to  rest  entirely  on  His 
atonement  for  salvation.  I  read  the  23rd  and  46th  Psalms,  and  prayed  earnestly 
for  her,  that  she  might  be  prepared  for  her  ch ange.  After  prayer  she  embraced 
me,  and  told  me  she  was  awaiting  her  summons.  During  the  day  she  was  much 
engaged  in  prayer,  reading  her  Bible,  and  repeating  her  favourite  hymn : — 

*  Jesiifl,  loYer  of  my  soul. 
Let  me  to  Thy  bosom  fly,'  he. 

She  had  some  refreshment  at  eleven  A.M.,  and  about  two  I  took  her  some 
dessert,  but  she  refused  it.  I  raised  her  up  on  the  sofa,  at  her  request,  when 
she  exclaimed,  *  I'm  dying ;'  after  this  she  spoke  little,  and  that  little  with 
great  difficulty.  She  said  to  me,  *  My  dear,  don't  weep  :  I  am  going  to  Jesus.' 
Her  last  words  were,  *  Take  care  of  my  Harry.*    Then,  after  a  considerable 


390  MISSIONAltT  MAGAZINE 

pause,  her  eyes  gazing  upwards  "witli  an  nnearthly  expression,  she  exclaimed, 
*  Take  me !  take  me !'  and  expired. 

"  The  body  was  committed  to  the  silent  grare  on  the  following  afternoon, 
on  the  north  side  of  the  chapel  at  Alofi,  in  the  Island  of  Nine.  It  has  been  a 
sad  Tisit  to  Sarage  Island;  bnt  Mr.  and  Mrs.  Lawes  conld  not  have  done  more 
for  onr  relief  though  we  had  been  their  brother  and  sister.  The  *  Desdemoaa,' 
a  whaler,  arriyed  on  the  4th,  and  Captain  Bates,  in  the  kindest  maamer, 
offered  me  and  my  dear  little  motherless  babe  a  passage  to  Apia,  and  his 
amiable  wife  kindly  took  charge  of  the  little  boy. 

"  Ever  believe  me  yours  affectionately, 

(Signed)        "P.  G.BiBD." 

Mr.  Bird  communicates  the  following  sad  and  unexpected  intelligence  in 
reference  to  himself: — 

**  Begarding  the  state  of  my  own  health,  I  entertain  the  most  serious 
apprehensions.  But,  thank  God,  there  is  a  *  better  country,'  and  to  that  I  am 
looking  forward ;"  and  he  concludes  his  letter  with  these  affecting  words : — 

"  Now  I  must  close — close  what  may  probably  be  my  last  letter  to  you.** 

We  trust  that  God  may  be  better  to  our  afflicted  brother  than  his  fears, 
and  spare  his  valuable  life  for  future  usefulness.

SHIPWRECK  AND  TOTAL  LOSS 

07  THE 

Foe  the  last  twenty  years  the  successive  voyages  of  the  Missionaey  Ship 
among  the  islands  of  the  South  Pacific  have  been,  both  to  the  Directors  and 
Mends  of  the  Society,  an  occasion  of  unfailing  gratification  and  thankfulness. 
During  that  period  she  has  made  Jive  succesiive  voyagei  from  the  shores  of  Eng- 
land to  that  mighty  ocean :  and  annually  she  has  carried  the  needful  supplies  to 
the  missionaries  in  the  various  groups  in  which  they  labour,  starting  from 
Australia  and  returning  to  the  colony  on  the  completion  oilier  voyage. 
And  although  in  these  successive  voyages  she  has  often  visited  islands 
flurrounded  by  dangers,  and  has  encountered  many  fearfril  storms,  she  has 
been  mercifully  preserve  ^Hi^seii^as  injury,  and  not  a  single  man  of 
her  crew  has  been  shipwrecked.  But  we  have  now,  with  feelings  of  intense 
sorrow,  to  record  her  loss — ^her  total  loss — ^including  almost  everythiiffe 
on  board,  except  the  lives  of  the  passengers  and  the  crew.  This  disastrous 
event  occurred  under  circumstances  from  which  no  immediate  danger  was 
apprehended,  and  at  an  Island  which  she  had  visited  on  former  occasions 
without  injury.  The  "John  Williams"  was  wrecked  off  a  small  island 
significantly  named  Longer  hland,  one  of  the  Tokelau  (}roup,  situated 
lat  S.  10  deg.  54  min.,  long.  W.  166  deg.  The  loss  of  the  vessel  is 
best  described  by  Captain  Wiluamb  in  the  following  seaman-like  letter  to  the 
Poreign  Secretary— a  communication  which  will  awaken  the  deepest  sympathy 
and  grief  in  the  hearts  of  thousands  : —  Digitized  by  LjOOgLC

298  MISSIONARY  MAGAZINE 

"  At  sea,  on  boai'd  of  the  brig  '  Lalla  Rookh/ 

"  July  29th,  1864. 

"  Rev.  and  dear  Sib, — It  is  my  painful  duty  to  inform  you  of  the  total 
loss  of  the  Mission  barque  'John  Williams,'on  Fuka-puka,  or  Danger  Island,  on 
the  morning  of  the  17th  of  Hay.  We  made  the  island  the  previous  day,  and 
at  night  ware  heading  Jwell  off  the  land.  At  midnight  it  fell  calm,  and  tiie  ship 
drifted  about  two  miles  p«:  hour  towards  the  reef,  with  the  Hfe-boot  ahead. 
About  three  a.m.,  finding  she  was  going  astern  and  fast  towards  the  reef,  we 
got  out  the  long-boat  and  whale-boat.  About  four  she  struck  the  first  blow, 
and  I  then  got  all  the  passengers  put  into  the  boats  safely.  About  five 
o'clock  I,  with  the  rest  of  the  crew,  left  the  wreck,  joined  the  other  two 
boats,  and  pulled  in  company  to  the  landing-plaoe,  distant  about  three  miles. 
At  daybreak  we  reached  the  landing-place,  and  two  of  our  native  crew  swam 
over  the  reef  to  inform  the  native  teacher  Ohati  of  our  sad  condition,  and  to 
get  him  to  send  canoes  to  take  the  passengers  over  the  reef.  These  included 
the  Rev.  C.  Barff  and  family,  numbering  five,  Rev.  H.  Royle  and  daughter, 
two  teachers,  their  wives  and  children,  and  Mrs.  Williams.  After  they  were 
safely  landed,  the  three  boats  and  -some  canoes  returned  to  the  wreck  to 
endeavour  to  save  what  we  could.  But  I  am  sorry  to  say  that  very  little  could 
be  got  at ;  for  we  found  her  filling  fast  and  settling  down  at  the  bows,  hang- 
ing with  her  heel  on  the  reef.  At  great  risk  we  got  some  coffee  and  sugar. 
I  also  succeeded  ia  saving  some  nautical  instruments  and  a  few  articles  of 
clothing.  These  had  to  be  thrown  overboard  and  picked  up  by  the  boats,  for 
they  could  not  approach  the  ship  on  account  of  the  surf  and  the  heavy  rolling 
of  the  vessel.  I  am  sorry  to  tell  you  that  Mr.  Barff  and  myself  have  lost 
almost  everything. 

"  About  eight  o'clock  we  found  it  impossible  to  remain  any  longer,  and, 
witii  an  almost  broken  heart,  I  left  the  much-loved  but  ill-fated  '  Jolm 
Williams '  for  ever.  In  about  three  minutes  after  leaving  she  laxmoibed  off 
the  reef,  going  down  head  foremost  in  very  deep  water,  taking  all  with 
her. 

"  Although  I  have  the  satisfaction  to  know'that  the  calamity  was  not  caused 
by  any  neglect,  my  feelings,  sir,  can  be  better  imagined  than  described  when 
I  saw  her  go  -entirely  from  my  sight  for  ever.  No  lives  were  lost ;  the  Xiord 
was  very  merciful  in  spaidng'all  withont  any  accident.  I  need  not,  ^iear  m, 
give  you  any  more  particulars,  as  you  will  have  all  details  in  the  protect 
which  accompanies  this  letter.  I  must  not  forget  to  mention  the  IrindneaB 
shown  to  us  by  Okath  the  teacher,  and  the  natives  of  Fuka-puka,  in  supplying 
our  daily  wants  with  taro,  cocoa-nuts,  and  fish.  During  our  stay  of  three 
weeks  on  their  island,  J.  C.  Williams,  Esq.,  H.B.M.  Consul,  kindly  sent  to  the 
ialaaders,  in  the  name  of  the  Qneen  of  England,  a  quantity  of  useful  aErtx^fle 
of  clothing,  as  an  acknowledgment  for  their  kindness  to  us,  and  also  to  en- 
courage them  in  acts  of  kindness  to  any  that  may  be  shipwrecked  m  the 
future. 

"I  must  also  mention  the  kindness  and  sympathy  shown  to  us  in  Samoa  by 
the  missionary  Vethren  and  the  consul.  Mrs.  Williams  and  myself  were 
located  -wUh  Br.  Tam^r;  therefore  I  mmt  moreparticulfiaiy  speak  of  tbe 
never-to-be-forgotten  kindness  shown  to  us  ]b^  him^aaid  hu  iuBilgr.    AMi&OQgii

in  deep  sorrow  themselves,  they  did  all  they  cotfld  to  comfort  ns,  and  <to 
supply  us  with  many  needful  articles  of  clothing  to  help  us  up  to  Sydney. 

"Sydney,  August  17th.

aay  that  I  hope  to  be  in  England  (D.Y.)  the  end  of  November,  in  the  ship

COTIESE  OF  THE  "JOHN  WILLIAMS"  PEHVIOUS  TO  HEE  SHIPWEBOi. 

Our  readers  will  be  interested  to  know  liie  voyage  of  the  Missionary  barque 
immediately  preceding  her  visit  to  the  fatal  island  where  she  finished  her 
course ;  and  this  is  described  by  the  Rev.  Heitrt  Eoyle,  one  of  our  mission- 
ary veterans,  who  has  lived  and  laboured  in  the  island  of  Aitutaki  for  more 
than  six-and-twenty  years.     He  writes  as  follows : — 

"  "We  arrived  at  Aitutaki,  in  the  missionary  ship,  only  to  take  leave,  for  a 
short  season,  of  my  beloved  wife  and  daughter,  and  our  warmly  loving  people. 
They  were  prepared  to  bid  me  Grod  speed.  After  supplying  the  ship  with 
everything  the  captain  informed  them  he  needed,  and  in  such  abundance  that 
he  could  not  take  aU,  we  prepared  to  leave.  The  Aitutakian  youth,  who  had 
long  maintained  a  steady  devotion  to  the  interests  of  the  *  John  Williams,' 
now  manifested  a  stronger  regard  as  they  were  about  to  commit  their 
missionary  to  it,  as  a  home  for  several  months.  From  fifty  to  sixty  young 
men — ^the  flower  of  our  Church — ^having  bid  us  an  affectionate  farewell, 
descended  into  their  whale-boat.  Spontaneously  the  captain,  officers,  and 
crew,  with  about  sixty  natives  of  the  Penrhyn  Islands,  crowded  the  quarter- 
deck of  the  *  John  Williams,'  and  gave  these  young  men  nine  British  cheers, 
which  the  Aitutakians  heartily  returned. 

"  We  saiLed  pleasantly  forward  for  one  week,  and  arrived  at  the  Penrhyn 
Islands.  Here  we  had  on  former  occasions  six  teachers  and  flourishing  villages. 
Uniting  the  whole,  they  numbered  over  one  thousand.  Now  we  found  only 
sixty  of  the  original  owners  of  the  soil  and  one  teacher ;  the  others,  with  five 
of  their  teachers,  had  been  scattered,  and  most  of  them  were  dead,  chiefly  by 
the  cruel  work  of  the  Oallao  slavers,  just  before  our  arrival. 

"  We  completed  our  work  at  the  above-mentioned  islands,  and  at  our  stations 
on  Mam'hiki,  where,  in  every  social  and  moral  point  of  view,  decided  improve- 
ment on  former  years,  in  industry  and  Christian  civilization,  was  manifest. 
New  chapels  and  schools  had  risen  up— very  refreshing  to  look  upon — and  the 
clothing  and  courteous  demeanour  of  the  natives  marked  the  effect  of  Gospel 
influence. 

On  ^e  11th  Hay,  afternoon^  we  left  Manihiki,  after  very  pleasant  engage- 
ments with  the  teachers  and  scholars  and  members  of  religious  classes.  We 
now  be^n  to  experience  our  first  unpleasant  weather,  unusual  in  these  lati- 
tudes, and  especially  at  this  season  of  the  year.    In  a  gale  of  wind  we  brought

300  MISSIONABT  MAGAZINE 

up  near  to  a  very  dongerons  rock,  which  throws  iq)  heavy  breakers,  about 
twenty-one  miles  from  Danger  Island. 

"  On  the  16th  May  we  sighted  Danger  Island.  It  was  early  dawn,  and  with 
joyous  emotions,  ere  evening  we  hoped  to  be  in  their  midst,  receiving  their 
welcome  greetings  and  distributing  amongst  them  the  amp^e  gifts  we  had 
brought  from  the  Christians  at  Aitutaki  to  their  less  favoured  brethren  at 
Fuka-puka.  The  winds,  currents,  and  complex  character  of  the  reefs,  to  otu* 
great  disappointment  prevented  our  having  intercourse  with  the  island  that 
day — ^not  on  account  of  our  distance,  for  we  were  very  near,  but  we  had  found 
the  natives  of  all  these  low  coral  islands  very  shy  in  recognising  us.  We 
learned,  however,  that  they  had  suffered  so  much  from  the  Peruvian  slavers 
and  their  barbarous  outrages,  that  we  ceased  to  wonder  at  their  reluctance  to 
come  out  to  sea.  Disappointed,  both  in  not  getting  on  shore,  as  we  so  con- 
fidently hoped,  and  their  not  coming  out  to  us,  we  were  left  to  uncertainty 
as  to  whether  they  knew  us ;  so,  after  our  usual  domestic  worship,  the  captain 
called  us  upon  deck  to  witness  the  exhibition  of  blue  lights  and  rockets,  in 
order  to  facilitate  our  work  of  the  coming  day.  Our  signals  were  replied  to 
by  beacon  fires  along  the  shore,  and  especially  the  landing-place,  until  near 
midnight,  and  we  all  retired  very  happily  to  our  respective  places  of  repose 
for  the  night ;  but  it  was  destined  to  be  a  night  of  horror,  never  to  be  forgotten 
— the  wreck  of  the  noble  ship,  the  *  John  Williams.' 

"  It  was  early  on  the  morning  of  the  17th  of  May,  that  jubilant  month  with 
the  Churches  at  home,  when  we  were  called  out  of  our  profound  slumber  by  a 
voice  exclaiming,  *  Mr.  Royle,  get  up  and  pray  to  God  for  the  "John  Williams;'' 
she  is  just  upon  the  reef.'  Affrighted,  I  started  from  my  sleeping-place, 
hardly  knowing  what  I  did,  but  fiilly  conscious  of  the  reality  and  extent  of  oui- 
danger,  by  the  height  to  which*^  our  fated  vessel  was  raised  on  the  surging 
bUlows,  and  the  fearful  roar  of  the  breaking  waters.  I  sprang  to  the  couch  of 
my  dear  child,  who  yet  lay  in  profound  and  fearless  slumber,  unconscious  of 
the  anguish  of  her  father  and  her  own  proximity  to  a  watery  grave.  All  my 
agonized  feelings  were  compressed  in  one  intense  prayer,  and  I  exclaimed, '  O 
Ood,  save  my  child.'  Again,  at  this  moment,  the  voice  of  Mrs.  Williams,  our 
captain's  wife,  was  heard,  'Mr.  Royle,  bring  Harriet  upon  deck  immediately; 
throw  something  warm  around  the  dear  child ;  but  come  quickly,  the  Teasel 
has  struck.'  I  dragged  her  from  her  sleeping-place  to  the  deck.  The  rudder 
and  the  stem  had  given  way,  and  on  the  deck  stood  three  aged  Christians, 
between  seventy  and  eighty  years  of  age,  and  four  young  children  trembling 
and  naked  by  our  side.  Our  Aitutakian  young  men  came  near  to  us,  drew 
their  upper  garments  off,  and  took  possession  of  my  child.  Somewhat  relieved 
by  their  devotion,  and  satisfied  that  they  would  do  all  they  could  for  our  rescue, 
I  threw  myself  with  prayerful  confidence  into  the  arms  of  a  covenant-keeping 
God,  and  awaited  the  result. 

"  Orders  were  given  to  get  out  the  boatb,  which  after  great  labour,  and 
many  fine  traits  of  character,  the  crew  succeeded  in  doing,  the  vessel,  in  the 
meantime,  rapidly  filling  with  water.  At  length  orders  were  given  by  the 
captain  for  the  ladies  and  children  to  be  put  into  the  boats.  Aiding  my 
venerable  friend  the  Rev.  Charles  Barff  to  follow,  I  beheld  with  grateful 
feelings  their  rescue  from  impending  death,  my  o^iti|^4^:}l9'^L'^i^^  o^  ^^

number.  Seated  on  the  deck  of  the  ill-fated  vessel,  I  saw  Mrs.  Williams, 
whom  I  had  supposed  to  have  gone  in  the  boat,  approaching.  She  said, 
*  Mr.  Royle,  I  give  you  my  place  in  the  boat ;  go/ take  care  of  your  daughter ; 
I  remain  to  share  the  fate  of  my  dear  husband — ^I  cannot  leave  him.' 
She  disappeared,  and  in  a  few  minutes  the  captain  came  and  requested  me  to 
enter  the  boat  and  to  keep  her  out  of  the  reach  of  falling  spars,  and  within 
hail  for  any  contingency.  I  obeyed  the  welcome  orders.  Out  of  reach  of 
immediate  danger,  I  looked  around  upon  the  affecting  scene ;  we  a  half- 
naked  throng — our  pleasant  home  a  wreck,  and  the  tremendous  crashes  of  the 
ship  breaking  on  the  silence  of  the  night.  Every  blow  the  ill-fated  vessel  received 
sent  a  vibratory  stroke  to  the  ship's  bell,  and  a  pang  of  sorrow  to  our  hearts. 
At  five  o'clock  a.m.,  while  yet  dark,  orders  were  given  for  all  to  enter  the 
boats,  forty-two  in  number,  occupying  three  boats.  "We  proceeded  along  ai 
a  safe  distance  from  the  reef,  to  seek  an  opening  whereby  to  hold  communi- 
cation with  the  natives  of  Danger  Island.  As  soon  as  they  saw  us,  crowds 
of  them  hastened  to  our  relief,  embraced  us  in  their  generous  love,  and  carried 
us  to  their  homes.  Clothing  they  had  none  to  offer  us,  but  the  best  of  their 
food  they  reserved  for  us  and  brought  daily  to  our  table,  generously  denying 
themselves  of  the  only  food  that  we  could  eat — a  sacrifice  the  more  to  be 
admired,  as  they  could  evidently  see  we  had  been  deprived  of  the  ability  to 
reward  them  for  such  service." 

VXSSENOEfiS   SENT  TO   SAMOA. 

Within  a  week  of  the  merciful  deliverance  of  the  passengers  and  crew  of 
the  "  John  Williams,"  the  long-boat  was  fitted  out,  and  Mr.  Turpie,  the 
chief  mate,  and  six  of  the  ship's  company,  proceeded  to  Samoa,  distant  nearly 
four  hundred  miles,  to  make  known  the  loss  of  the  Missionary  ship,  and  to 
request  of  the  British  Consul,  J.  C.  Williams,  Esq.,  the  means  of  fetching 
Captain  Williams  and  his  company  from  Danger  Island  to  that  group.  Mr 
W.  promptly  chartered  a  small  vessel  for  that  purpose,  named  the  "  Lalla 
Bookh,"  which  sailed  forthwith  to  Danger  Island,  and  on  the  14th  of  June 
she  returned  safely  with  all  her  passengers  to  the  harbour  of  Apia. 

It  will  be  readily  imagined  that  the  arrival  of  the  rescued  party,  including 
Captain  Williams  and  other  old  friends,  would  awaken  in  the  minds  of  our 
Missionary  Brethren  mingled  feelings  of  grief  and  joy.  During  their  con- 
tinuance in  the  Island  of  TJpolu  they  received  every  proof  of  deep  sympathy 
and  generous  affection,  and,  after  a  short  stay,  Captain  Williams  and  his 
company  proceeded  in  the  "  Lalla  Eookh  "  to  Sydney,  where  they  arrived  on 
the  3rd  of  August.  In  that  city  also  they  received  from  the  Bev.  Johk 
Graham,  and  many  Christian  friends,  that  generous  and  tender  regard  which 
their  destitute  condition  rendered  so  acceptable. 

Mr.  Graham  announces  the  arrival  of  the  "Lalla  Kookh"  and  her 
passengers,  and  the  prompt  and  generous  provision  made  by  himself  and 
friends  for  the  relief  of  the  sufferers,  in  the  following  communication  to  the 
Directore :—  ^  Q'^^^^  ^y  ^OOglC 


302  MZSffiCONABY  MAGAZINE 

"  I  send  you  by  this  mail  the  sad  account  of  the  total  loss  of  the  '  John

to-day  (August  20th)  Captain  and  Mrs.  Williams,  with  Mr.  NisWt's  daughter 
laaMla,  and  several  of  the  crew  of  the  '  John  Williams,'  sail  for  London  by 
the  '  William  Duthie.'  Captain  Williams  has  lost  property  to  a  considerable 
amooBt,  by  the  wreck,  and  our  committee  and  friends  here  confidently  hope 
the  "DirectoTB  will  indemnify  him.  Last  night  a  few  friends  of  us  presented 
Ma  and  Mrs.  Williams  with  an  address  of  confidence  and  sympathy,  and  a 
piawo  of  fifty  guineas.  We  have  resolved  to  undertake  immediately  to 
iadannify  the  missionaries,  Barff  and  Boyle,  and  also  Mrs,  Howe,  for  their 
liMses,  which  will  amount  to  about  £220."  ^

Mr.  Graham  expresses  the  conviction  entertained  by  himself  and  the 
Chrifltian  friends  at  Sydney,  of  the  necessity  of  providing  forthwith  a 
suceessor  to  the  "John  Williams.'^  This  conviction  the  Directors  also 
strongly  entertain,  and  they  will  endeavour  with  the  least  possible  delay 
to  oarry  it  into  effect.  They  feel  assured  that  the  meflibers  of  the  Society, 
and  especially  its  juvenile  friend%,  who  have  in  past  years  contributed  for  the 
purchase  and  support  of  the  **  John  Williams,"  Twenty  thousand  pounds j  will 
promptly  and  heartily  adopt  measures  to  secure  a  new  vessel,  which  shall

and  Polynesia,  and  bear  also  the  tidings  of  salvation  to  the  degraded  savages 
who  are  still  found  by  thousands  in  the  isles  of  the  Pacific. 

The  painful  tidings  that  the  ''  John  Williams  "  was  lost  no  sooner  reached 
the  colony  of  Victoria,  than  the  same  feelings  of  spontaneous  sympathy  and 
lo\;e  were  elicited  from  the  Ministers  and  Churches ;  and  before  the  departure 
of  the  mail,  the  following  earnest  appeal  was  addressed  by  the  Rev.  J.  P. 
SuKBERLAND,  formerly  our  devoted  missionary  in  Samoa,  to  the  Ministers, 
Superintendents  of  Schools,  and  Friends  of  the  London  Missionary  Society 
throughout  that  Colony : — 

"  The  children  of  Britain,  twenty  years  ago,  purchased  and  fitted  oat  Hie

missionaries  and  their  stores  to  the  various  staitions  in  Saatem  and  Western 
Pislyneiia.  Her  principal  work  has  been  amongst  islands  but  Httle  known. 
Hev  preservation  for  so  many  years  from  shipwreck  has  often  been  the  subject 
of  grateftd  remark.  The  sad  tidings  of  her  loas  have  been  received.  She  vraa 
helpless  in  a  calm,  off  Danger  Island.  All  efforts  to  save  her  proved  in- 
effectual. She  drifted  on  to  the  reef,  and  afterwards  sank  in  ninety  fathoms 
water.  All  lives  were  saved,  and  the  recently  christianized  natives  on  Danger 
Island  showed  to  the  shipwrecked  party  *  no  little  kindness.'

304  MISSIONARY  MAGAZINB 

MADAGASCAR. 

The  intelligence  which  has  reached  ns  from  the  Capital  during  the  last 
month,  though  hy  no  means  copious,  is  encouraging  and  satisfactory.  The 
newly  arrived  missionaries  have  entered  on  their  several  spheres  of  labour ; 
the  different  branches  of  the  Mission  are  carried  forward  with  diligence ; 
and,  as  our  Brethren  advance  in  the  acquisition  of  the  vernacular,  and  in 
the  knowledge  of  the  habits  and  manners  of  the  people,  we  may  anticipate 
their  increased  efficiency.  Our  venerable  friend  the  Rev.  William  Ellis 
repeats  in  substance  the  statement  which  he  has  heretofore  given  in  reference 
to  the  numerous  attendants  in  the  several  congregations,  as  well  as  the 
increase  of  the  Native  Churches.  The  following  passage,  given  incidentally 
in  one  of  his  latest  letters,  is  a  clear  indication  that  he  is  ftilly  occupied, 
and  that  his  occupations  are  cheering  to  himself  as  they  must  be  to  our 
readers:  — 

'*  I  have  been  at  work  since  daylight  marking  out  the  ground  for  a  new 
place  of  worahip  in  the  heart  of  the  city ;  and  subsequently  attending  our  united 
monthly  missionaiy  prayer  meeting,  at  which  there  were  1100  or  1200  people 
present-— a  glorious  sight!— We  stiU  have  to  report  continued  additions  to  our 
Churches,  though  not  so  numerous  as  some  months  ago.'* 

Our  valued  friend  supplies  also  evidence  of  the  improvement  of  the  Native 
Christians  in  their  socicd  and  religious  customs,  in  the  following  account  of  a 
Malagasy  marriage;  and,  in  a  country  where  the  marriage  relation  is  esteemed 
but  Hghtly,  and  often  dishonoured,  it  must  obviously  be  most  desirable 
to  have  the  union  recognised  and  sanctified  by  the  public  services  of 
religion. 

"We  have  from  the  first  inculcated  the  desirableness  of  making  the 
marriage  ceremony  of  the  people  a  public  religious  service;  and  at  our  last 
Church  meeting  it  was  announced  that  two  young  Christiaiis  of  respectable 
families  wished  to  enter  into  their  marriage  engagements  in  the  house  of  God 
— to  enter  into  the  covenant  in  His  presence,  and,  as  they  hoped,  with  His 
blessing.  Two  o'clock  was  the  time  appointed  for  the  ceremony  to  take  place 
at  Ambatonakanga.  When  I  arrived  I  found  the  bride  and  her  friends  wait- 
ing; her  fiEither  and  mother  were  both  present,  and  sat  next  to  her.  The 
whole  passed  off  very  well.  The  bride  came  in  her  palanquin,  attended  by 
six  or  more  young  bridesmaids.    It  was  indeed  quite  a  bridal  pageant. 

VISIT  TO  AMBOHIMANaA. 

References  have  been  often  made  in  our  correspondence  to  the  city  of 
AMBOHncAirGA,  the  ancient  capital  of  the  Hovas,  and  the  burial-place 
of  their  kings.  This  city  is  still  held  peculiarly  sacred  as  the  head- 
quarters of  idolatry ;  and  the  Christians  are  required  to  exercise  their  wor- 
ship without  the  walls.     It  is,  however,  evident  t*^*  itt^y^^f^feft  ^^^  ^®*

practically  operate  to  the  iiyury  of  Christianity,  as  will  be  learnt  by  the  fol- 
lowing extract  from  the  latest  letter  of  Mr.  Ellis  : — 

"  I  am  late  with  my  letters,  from  having  been  three  days  absent  last  week 
among  the  Churches  to  the  north.  I  went  to  Ambohimanga  on  Tuesday,  to 
assist  the  people  in  appointing  pastors  and  deacons  for  their  Church  of  forty- 
eight  members.  Two  native  paators  and  eight  deacons  were  appointed,  as 
the  congregation  is  scattered.  I  was  much  pleased  with  the  simple  earnest- 
ness of  the  people,  who  are  among  the  latest  sufferers  for  their  faith. 
On  the  following  day  I  held  service  with  one  of  the  Churches  to  the  east 
of  Ambohimanga,  where  one  of  the  most  distinguished  among  the  martyrs 
lived  and  laboured.  I  visited  the  caves  in  which  he  had  been  repeatedly  con- 
cealed during  the  long  years  of  persecution  that  he  endured.  On  the  suc- 
ceeding day  I  crossed  the  country  to  the  west,  and  assisted  in  appointing  two 
pastors  and  five  deacons  at  Ambohipanja.  The  congregation  live  in  nine 
different  villages,  and  amount  to  nearly  two  hundred.  Fifty-seven  have  been 
baptized,  and  forty-two  are  communicants.  I  was  much  pleased  with  the 
earnestness  manifested  by  the  villagers. 

INTENDED  VISIT  TO  THE   BET8ILEO. 

Mr.  EUis  states  in  his  last  letter,  that  in  company  with  the  Rev.  W.  E. 
Cousins  he  was  about  to  visit  the  Betsilbo.  The  state  and  prospects  of 
the  Christians  in  that  country  are  represented  as  most  encouraging,  especially 
when  it  is  considered  that  the  Betsileo  have  hitherto  had  none  of  the 
advantages  of  an  European  ministry : — 

"  I  have  continued  to  receive  gratifying  tidings  of  the  steadfastness  of  the 
Christians  in  the  Betsileo  country,  at  Fiarantsoa,  one  of  the  large  towns  or 
villages  of  the  Betsileo,  and  the  residence  of  a  Hova  governor.  The  account 
of  the  healthiness  of  the  place,  and  the  large  population,  together  with  their 
very  friendly  disposition,  has  led  me  to  decide  to  pay  a  visit  to  that  place, 
which  is  about  as  far  south  as  Tamatave  is  east  frx>m  the  capital.  The  Betsileo 
are  in  alliance  with  the  Hovas,  are  admitted  into  their  army,  and  on  many 
grounds  it  might  prove  the  best  station  at  which  to  begin  a  second,  or 
branch  Mission  in  Madagascar.  Should  that  not  appear  eligible  at  present, 
the  information  I  shall  gain  by  a  personal  visit  will  be  valuable  hereafter, 
and  the  people  will  be  interested  and  the  Christians  encouraged.  Mr. 
Cousins  will  accompany  me.  The  journey  will  occupy  eight  or  nine  days 
in  going,  and  the  same  in  returning,  and  if  I  have  time  I  shall  visit  another 
chief  and  his  people,  three  days'  journey  further  south;  but  we  shall  not 
be  absent  more  than  a  month  or  five  weeks  at  fsurthest.  I  have  this  week 
had  most  encouraging  tidings  from  Manai\jany  and  a  neighbouring  settlement 
on  the  coast,  due  east  from  Fiarantsoa;  but  it  is  too  far  I  think  to  include  in 
one  journey,  and  it  could  be  best  reached  by  sea  from  Tamatave."

CHANGE  IN  THE  GOTERNMBNT,  AND  STATE  09  THE  CAPITAL. 

We  adverted  in  our  last  number  to  the  change  in  the  Government  of 
Madagascar,  in  the  removal  of  the  late  Prime  Kinister  and  the  appamtment  of 
his  brother,  the  Commander-in-Chief,  as  hia  suooeBsor.  This  was  represented 
in  certain  French  journals  as  tantamount  to  another  rerdution,  and  as  greatly 
endangering  the  peace  of  the  country.  Later  accounts,  however,  sufficiently 
reftite  this  representation.  The  change  is  clearly  in  favour  of  civilization, 
good  government,  and  fi-eedom ;  and  we  cannot  but  sincerely  desire  that  the 
Government,  as  it  now  is,  may  gather  strength  and  permanency.  The  cha- 
racter of  the  present  Prime  Minister,  in  contrast  with  his  predecessor,  is  thus 
given  by  Mr.  Ellis: — 

'*  The  new  Prime  Minister  is  perhaps  about  thirty  years  of  age,  late  Com- 
mander-in-Chief, and  younger  brother  to  the  Minister,  his  predecessor. 
He  is  a  man  of  temperate  habits,  never  having  been  carried  away  by  the 
excesses  of  the  court,  though  obliged  to  be  in  daily  attendance  upon  the 
late  king.  He  is  a  man  of  chaste  morals,  has  a  large  family,  and  has  never 
had  but  one  wife ;  she  is  a  heathen,  but  a  very  passive  one.  He  does  not 
profess  to  be  a  Christian,  but  his  tendencies  are  favourable.  He  is,  com- 
pared with  his  brother,  a  humane  man,  and  anxious  to  save,  rath^  than  to 
take  life.  On  the  occasioik  of  his  elevation  to  the  highest  office  in  the  state, 
his  expresgions  weve  such  as  to  insiare  us  with  oaufidenee  at  preseixt,  and 
hope  for  the  future.  In  a  note  written  ihe  day  alter  his  elevation  he  said 
that  he  considered  his  position  as  a  reward  £rom  GUkL  as  well  as  from  his 
sovereign ;  that  he  asked  Grod  to  assist  him,  and  would  make  it  the  object  of 
his  life,  to  the  utmost  of  his  power,  to  promote  the  enljghteoment  ajad  welfare 
of  hia  country,  and  all  classes  of  its  inhabitants. 

"  A  .gentleman  who  was  one  of  the  British  en^bas^  to  the  capital  of  Madap 
gaacar  on  the  coronation  of  the  late  king,  and  who  is  well  ahW  to  judge  ^ 
the  oirouni  stances  of  the  country,  siting  frcnn  Mauriticui  on  thjd  25th  of 
August^  says,  "  If  there  is  a  man  fit  to  conduct  the  afiairs  of  that  oountty,  it 
is  the  new  Prime  Minister." 

The  latest  intelligence  from  Antananarivo  is  contained  in  the  **  Mauri- 
tius Commercial  Gazette"  of  September  17tb,  in  which  the  editor  gives  the 
following  news  from  the  Capital : — ''  All  goes  on  well  at  Antananarivo,  and 
the  greatest  quiet  reigns.  The  people,  in  general,  are  well  satisfied  with  the 
new  Government  The  late  Prime  Minister  is  living  in  ijuiet  netiremeot, 
nnd  his  successor  working  hard  and  giving  satisfu^tion  in  his  new  office.

ALMORAH. 

It  is  only  two  montlis  siiice  "we  published  a  very  interesting  account  of  the 
progress  of  the  work  of  God  at  this  station,  especially  among  the  diseased  and 
differing  inmates  of  the  Lepee  House — a  house  of  mercy  kindly  provided 
and  ffustained  by  the  European  residents.  We  h&ve  subsequently  reoei^ed 
a  letter  fofim  the  Eey.  Jomx  Hbwlstt,  the  missionary  at  present  statzcned  at 
Ahnorahy  in  which  he  reports  the  baptism  of  thirteen  more  of  Hb&ee  poor 
sufj^rers ;  and  giveeus  also  a  Tray  cheering  acooimt  ef  the  e*ate  of  the  8cho<^

The  Rev.  J.  H.  Budden,  who  is  at  present  in  England  for  the  benefit  of 
his  health,  has  laboured  diligently  at  this  station  for  nearly  twenty  years; 
and  although,  at  the  commencement  of  his  Mission,  the  soil  was  most  un- 
promising, yet  the  seed  which  he  sowed  in  tears  is  now  yielding  precious 
fimit.  This,  indeed,  is  the  ordinary  lot  of  Indian  ndssionaries.  The  night 
of  toil  is  ofben  loBg,  but  tifie  morning  dawn  is  sure  to  follow.  They  WMry 
not  in  well-doing,  and  in  due  season  they  reap  their  reward. 

"  Almorah,  August  Slst,  1864. 
"  Mr  DEAB  Dr.  Tidhan, — ^With  much  pleasure  I  communicate  to  yoa  an 
account  of  the  examination  of  our  schools,  and  of  the  baptisms  we  have  had 
since  I  wrote  last,  not  doubtizig  but  that  you  will  unite  with  us  in  hailing 
these  events  as  earnests  of  a  more  abundant  ingathering  to  the  Church  of 
Christ  from  Almorah^  which  should  call  forth  our  devoijt  gratitude  to  God, 
and  encourage  us  to  gird  up  the  loins  of  our  mind  to  more  persevering  and 
piayerfiol  efforts  for  the  furtherance  of  the  unquestionably  good  work  already 
begun  amongst  us. 

EXAHINATICXBT  OX*  THE  SCHOOCLS. 

*  The  aimmal  public  examination  of  the  schools  was  held  25th  ult.,  at  whidi 
W.  Mur,  Esq.,  O.S.,  <^  Allahabad,  pvesided,  who  is  very  widely  kaoivm,  not 
onty  lor  his  high  pooitioa  and  oriental  lore,  but  alao  for  the  cordial  Mpport 
aad  syn|iaihy  whidi  he  givee  to  evety  undertaking  Sor  the  moral  and  spuduboal 
benefit  of  the  heathen.  Bendes  omr  valued  fnend,  Cohmel  Ramsay,  and  a 
wmabeac  a£  ladies  and  gentlemen  from  the  statbon,  there  was  also  a  large 
a^hpiadawoe  of  ihe  native  inhahxtanta,  who  desired  to  encomra^,  by  their 
presenoe^  the  spread  of  education  in  this  part  of  India.  Afber  the  adbohuni 
had  been  examiaed  in  grammar,  geography,  arithmetio,  Eudid,  other  general 
aobjects,  and  partioslaiiy  the  Bible,  the  usual  prizes  were  swarded  to  the  Aiai 
three  boys  in  each  class,  whose  comparative  merits  had  been  previously  ascer- 
tained by  means  af  private  examinations.  All  present  manilested  their  gra4ifi- 
eaticn  at  the  amount  of  kwprledi^  bodih  secular  and  bibHcal,  possessed  by  the 
boys.  A  gold  gfcedal  was  presemtsd  by  Colonel  Bamsay  to  the  beat  scholar,  who 
also  promissd  a  silver  watch  to  the  highest  competit(Mr  at  a  vohintary  ezamina^ 
tion  of  the  historical  portion  of  the  Bible,  to  be  held  at  Christmas  next.  At  the 


308  MISSIONARY  MAQAZINB 

close  Mr.  Mnir  delivered  a  most  enoouraging  address,  in  which  he  expressed 
the  great  pleasure  he  felt  in  contemplating  the  saccessfol  efforts  which  had 
been  made  for  the  advancement  of  education  at  Almorah  since  he  visited  it 
fifteen  years  ago ;  that  then  there  was  no  school  in  the  place,  and  now  there 
are  two  large  flourishing  schools,  in  which  every  grade  of  learning  is  pursued, 
from  the  alphabet  in  the  vernacular  to  Euclid  and  other  advanced  branches 
of  useful  knowledge  in  English ;  he  also  pointed  out  to  the  scholars  how,  by 
prompt  attention  and  diligent  pursuit  of  their  studies,  they  may,  as  indeed 
many  from  the  schools  had  already,  become  fitted  for  very  important  spheres 
of  usefulness,  raise  their  own  social  position,  become  good  citizens,  and  the 
means  of  elevating  the  moral  condition  of  their  countrymen,  and  of  advanc- 
ing civilization  amongst  them.  He  concluded  by  pressing  home  on  them  the 
importance  of  considering  that  the  great  end  of  all  true  knowledge  is  some- 
thing higher  than  instructing  men  how  to  provide  for  the  present  mortal 
life,  and  of  deciding  for  themselves,  without  delay,  the  weighty  question, 
that,  were  they  to  attain  every  branch  of  knowledge,  acquire  great  wealth 
and  honour,  or  even  gain  the  whole  world,  what  would  it  profit  them  if  they 
lose  their  own  souls;  and  by  expressing  the  sincere  hope  that  they  would 
not  rest  satisfied  until  they  had  attained  the  higher  and  more  enduring  bless- 
ings, which  it  is  the  great  object  of  the  missionaries  in  labouring  amongst 
them,  that  they  should  eigoy,  eternal  life,  which  the  Gospel  of  Christ  alone 
can  impart. 

mJMBEB  AND  IHPBOVEHBNT  OF  THB  PUPILS. 

''  The  number  of  boys  at  present  in  the  upper  school  is  136,  and  in  the 
lower  142 ;  altogether  278,  which  is  as  high  a  number,  I  think,  as  we  can 
reasonably  expect  ^  a  town  of  only  about  5000  inhabitants.  The  regular 
attendance  of  such  a  large  proportion  of  the  youth  of  Almorah,  for  a  period 
of  at  least  four  years  on  an  average,  especially  as  they  pursue  the  study  of 
the  Word  of  God  with  apparently  as  much  attention  and  interest  as  they  do 
the  other  subjects  taught  in  the  schools,  opens  a  noble  opportunity  of  benefit- 
ing, by  the  blessing  of  the  Gospel,  the  rising  generation,  and,  through  them, 
succeeding  generations,  the  importance  of  which  we  can  scarcely  estimate. 
Indeed,  a  very  decided  change  has  already  come  over  a  large  part  of  the 
inhabitants  since  the  establishment  of  the  Mission.  The  government  officials, 
who  have  had  the  most  fiivourable  opportunities  of  watclung  very  closely  the 
character  of  the  natives,  from  the  connection  of  a  large  number  of  them  with 
the  government,  bear  very  strong  and  gratifying  testimony  to  the  thorough 
changes  undergone  by  several  families  that  have  been  for  a  long  time  under 
their  observation,  the  young  men  of  which  have  been  brought  up  in  the  llission 
Schools.  Many  of  them,  whose  character  had  been  stamped  by  their  addiction 
to  lying,  fraud,  and  litigation,  are  now  looked  upon  as  models  of  moraliiy  by 
their  fellow-countrymen,  and  their  names  never  dishonourably  brought  forward 
in  the  courts  of  law.  Many  of  the  scholars  who  have  left  the  schools,  as  well 
as  a  number  of  those  who  still  remain,  are  also  favourably  impressed  with  the 
truth  of  Christianity,  and  I  cannot  help  feeling  that  we  have  good  reason  for 
resting  up<m  the  belief  that  in  the  Lord's  good  time  these  manifest  effects  of 
the  Gospel  will  prove  the  precursor  of  many  of  them  openly  casting  in  their 
lot  with  the  people  of  God.  digitized  by  dOOgrc

RECEPTION  OF  A  BAJPXTT  CONYBBT. 

"  On  Lord's  day  morning,  Slst  tdt.,  I  bad  the  heartfelt  pleasure  of  welcom- 
ing Hari  Singh,  the  BIypnt  of  whom  I  gave  yon  some  aoconnt  in  my  last,  by 
baptism  into  onr  little  band  of  Christians.  To  me  he  is  one  of  the  most  satis- 
factory of  all  whom  I  have  baptized.  From  the  first  I  have  felt  that  there 
was  something  about  his  thorooghly  open  manner,  seriousness  of  conversa- 
tion, and  apparently  strong  conyiction  of  his  need  as  a  sinner,  to  impress  me 
deeply  with  a  sense  of  his  earnestness  and  sincerity;  and  his  faith  since  then 
has  certainly  been  put  to  a  very  serere  test ;  for,  being  of  a  high  caste,  the 
Brahmins  tried  every  means  of  poisoning  his  mind  against  Ghristiaiiity;  they 
used  the  most  unsparing  threats,  and  warned  him  in  the  most  terrifying 
manner,  of  the  awful  doom  to  which  he  would  become  obnoxious  by  forsaking 
the  religion  of  his  fathers ;  he  was  also  fully  aware  that  by  professing  Ohris- 
tianity  he  would  cut  o£f  all  means  of  support  from  his  countrymen,  who 
gave  to  him,  not  out  of  any  charitable  feeling  towards  him  as  a  lame  man,  but 
because  they  expected,  in  accordance  with  a  professed  tenet  of  their  reli- 
gion, great  merit  to  accrue  to  them  from  supporting  destitute  and  afSicted 
persons  of  high  caste.  But,  that  his  faith  is  of  ihat  precious  kind  which 
readily  overcomes  greater  difficulties  than  these,  appears  from  the  confession 
he  made  to  me,  that  he  had  tried,  but  triod  in  vain,  for  a  number  of  years,  to 
derive  abiding  peace  of  mind  frx>m  the  sources  of  hope  and  consolation  afforded 
by  Hinduism ;  and  now  that  he  has  found  Jesus  on  whom  to  rest  his  fEuth, 
and  in  whom  he  feels  there  is  a  sufficiency  to  meet  all  his  need,  he  can  easily 
bear  whatever  may  befall  him  during  the  remainder  of  his  life.  And  from 
the  confession  he  also  made  at  his  baptism,  in  the  presence  of  the  congrega- 
tion, it  is  evident  that  he  grounds  his  hope  upon  no  vague  notion  of  the 
Gk>8pel,  but  upon  the  &ct  of  the  Lord  Jesus  having  stood  between  us  and  ruin 
and  completely  satisfied  the  claims  of  justice  in  our  stead.  From  my  inter- 
views with  him  since  he  was  baptized,  he  seems  to  thirst  after  realizing  more 
of  the  heavenly  experience  which  he  has  already  begun  to  find  that  a  know- 
ledge of  Christ  brings  to  the  heart. 

*'  His  first  impression,  that  Christianity  offers  something  more  satisfying  to 
a  conscience-burdened  sinner  than  anytjiing  he  had  ever  heard  before,  was 
feh  while  listening  to  the  head  master  of  the  upper  school  and  myself  preach- 
ing in  the  bazar,  a  little  more  than  a  year  ago.  I  had  given  up  all  thought 
of  witnessing  myself,  on  earth,  any  direct  result  from  that  effort.  The  people 
who  congregated  there  were  perfect  strangers  to  me,  and  perhaps  I  have  not 
seen  many  of  them  since ;  besides,  my  knowledge  of  the  vernacular  was  then, 
necessarily,  very  imperfect,  and,  from  the  manner  in  which  the  hearers 
listened  and  dispersed,  it  scarcely  seemed  to  me  possible  that  any  impression 
could  have  been  left.  But  I  now  feel,  the  Lord  having  shown  us  that  this 
man  was  then  first  enlightened,  a  stimulus  to  lose  no  opportunity  of  sowing 
the  word  of  life  beside  all  waters,  however  unlikely  of  success  it  may  appear, 
cling^g  to  the  promise  that  '  in  due  time  we  shall  reap,  if  we  faint  not.' 
Were  a  whole  life  of  labour  in  India  to  result  in  leading  only  one  such  poor 
heathen  to  the  cross  of  Christ,  I  should  not  consider  it  spent  in  vain.

It  IS  with  much  regret  we  have  to  announce  Qiat  one  of  ^ese  deroted 
Brethren,  the  Rev.  Javes  Seweix  and  his  estimable  wife,  have  been  at  length 
compelled,  by  failure  of  health,  to  relinquish  their  share  in  these  labours  of 
love.  Our  friends  were  to  leave  Madras  in  the  ^'Barham  "  on  the  25th  of 
August  ult.,  and  with  doubtful  prospect  of  returning  to  India.  In  anticipa- 
tion of  their  departure  resolutiodis  were  passed  by  their  beloved  co-labourers 
remaining  in  the  field,  expresaive  of  theix  warm  and  affectionate  esteem,  and 
of  their  earnest  hope  that  the  Divine  presence  and  blessing  might  attend  the 
voyagers  throughout  their  future  course. 

But  we  would  more  particularly  invite  attention  to  the  subjoined  documents, 
being  addresses  of  a  highly  interesting  character,  presented  to  Mr.  Sewell — 
the  one  emanating  from  the  ITative  Evangelists,  now  occupying  useful  spheres 
of  missionary  labour,  most  of  whom  had  been  trained  by  Mr.  S.,  and  the 
other  subscribed  by  teachers  and  students  connected  with  the  theological 
class,  and'also  with  the  Bangalore  Institution,  imder  the  joint  superintendence 
of  Messrs.  Bice  and  Sewell.  As  an  evidence  of  the  high  appreciation  in  which 
the  character  and  labours  of  our  Brother  and  his  devoted  wife  are  he  Id  in 
India,  where  they  are  beat  known,  these  documents  will,  we  are  persuaded, 
be  read  with  much  interest;  whilst  they  also  afford  a  very  gratifTing  exempli- 
fication of  the  intelligence,  correct  feeling,  and  Ghrislian  character  of  the 
Hindoo  subscribers.

"  TO  THE  BEV.  JAMES  SEWELL. 

'  'Rev.  and  deab  SiSr— As  we  have  been  assured  of  your  fimal  arrang^aient 
to  depart-,  firom  India,  we  think  it  oar  duty,  as  well  as  our'pri?ilege,  to  express 
imitedly,  once  more  before  your  departure,  the  ooxLviction  that  we  have  of  you, 
our  gratiiade  for  aM  the  priyileges  we  hture  enjoyed  while  under  you,  for  the 
Hvely  interest  you  have  aiace  taken,  ixi  our  advancement  in.  every  revpect,  and 
our  estaem  and  best  wfbhea  for  you  and  dear  madtya. 

"  We  mnflfc  oonf eaa  that  before  we  were  placed  under  your  tuition  we  were  as 
little  children  in  our  knowledge  of  divinity,  in  our  views  of  the  value  asd 
weight  of  the  masnsisj,  and  aleo  in  our  aeeular  knowledge ;  but  your  mode  of 
training  via  m  theae  vespecta  was  so  suitable  and  so  beneficial  in  our  case, 
that  we,  through  the  Divine  blesaing,  have  been  greatly  enjoying  its  fruits,  in 
our  own  edificaiion«  as  weil  as  in  our  uaeifolness  to  others.  Ever  since  then, 
we  have  been  led  to  see  fully  what  a  high  and  holy  of&ce  we  were  called  to 
take  upon  ourselves.  "We,  individually,  have  been  greatly  benefited  by  your 
salutary  inatruction  for  our  edification,  and  by  your  earnest  prayers  for  oui' 
future  usefulness.  Had  we  not  had  the  advantage  of  such  training,  we  should 
not  ourselves  have  exy  oyed  so  much,  or  have  been  so  useful  to  others.  More- 
over, your  conduct  as  a  disciple  of  Christ,  and  especially  as  a  minister  of  the 
Gospel,  has  left  upon  our  minds  so  good  and  lasting  an  impression,  that  we 
shall  never  forget  it ;  and  we  hope  to  be  benefited  thereby  in  our  future  walk. 
O,  may  we  feel  sincerely  thankful  for  all  these  blessings,  and  walk  worthy  of 
them,  that  so  we  may  receive  more  from  above !  Digitized  by  LjOOgLC

"As  far  as  we  can  see,  the  present  efficient  mode  of  preparing  a  native 
ministry  in  oar  Oanarese  Missions  was  commenced  b  j  jon ;  and  none  of  those 
that  went  before  yon  were  so  successfdl  as  yon  in  raising  and  strengthening 
it.  AH  these  great  advantages  that  our  Mission  enjoys  at  the  present  moment, 
through  the  agency  of  a  Native  Ministry,  are  for  the  most  part  accountable 
to  your  labours ;  and  it  is  highly  indebted  to  you  for  them. 

"  Dear  Sir,  we  have  greatly  eigoyed,  in  you  and  through  you,  the  blessings 
that  our  Lord  promised  to  those  that  forsake  their  father,  mother,  &c.,  for  His 
name's  sake.  From  the  reason  of  our  personal  eigoyment  of  you,  it  is  evident 
that  we  lose  in  your  departure  a  valuable  tutor,  a  good  counsellor,  and  affec- 
tionate father,  a  helping  brother,  and  a  true  Christian  friend  in  India. 

"  We  feel  much  for  dear  Mrs.  Sewell,  whose  health  has  been  broken  down 
so  much  as  to  make  her  utterly  incapable  to  attend  to  her  duties,  when  she 
was  so  successful  and  so  much  encouraged  in  them.  Our  united  thanks  are 
due  to  her  for  all  her  kind  and  Christian  labours  for  our  wives  and  children, 
and  for  her  Christian  love  to  us  all  in  general.  How  cheerful,  willing  and 
active  she  was,  in  spending  time  and  strength  for  the  good  of  the  Christiaji 
and  heathen  women,  and  what  an  amount  of  good  has  been  done  by  means  of 
her  Christian  labours  and  example !  Ourselves,  our  wives,  and,  indeed,  all 
the  Christian  women  in  Bangalore,  lose  in  her  a  true  Christian  mother,  and 
the  Mission  the  most  efficient  female  agent. 

**  In  submission  to  an  aU-wise  Providence,  which  has  effected  your  depar- 
ture frx>m  this  country,  we  commit  you  both  to  the  care  of  our  Heavenly 
Father,  who,  we  believe,  has  many  good  ends  in  view  in  taking  you  home. 
May  the  Lord  give  you  .eveiy  comfort  and  much  peace  throughout  your 
journey,  both  by  land  and  water,  protect  you  safely  to  your  destination,  for 
the  joy  of  your  friends  and  relatives,  and  your  dear  son. 

"  Before  we  conclude  this,  our  farewell  letter  to  you,  we  request  you  bear  as 
all  in  your  mind  wherever  you  go,  and  to  pray  for  us ;  and  we  will  do  the  same. 
As  hil^erto,  we  all,  individually,  would  like  to  write  to  you  all  theparticalars 
of  our  work,  and  our  personal  and  family  weljfoi*e,  and  at  the  same  time  would 
ever  delight  to  hear  from  you  frequently.  Our  wives  unite  with  as  in  giving 
their  kind  and  Christian  regards  to  you  both ;  and  we  all,  unitedly,  bid  you 
farewell!

FOR  NOVEMBER,    1864.  313 

"  This  day,  honoured  and  beloved  Sir,  is  to  us  one  of  tmnsnal  interest.  The 
termination  of  an  Indian  missionary  life  cannot  fail  to  arouse  in  our  minds, 
as  we  doubt  not  it  does  in  yours,  solemn  recollections  and  deep  emotions. 
The  retrospect  of  a  period  of  more  than  a  quarter  of  a  century  must  take  in 
a  wide  and  varied  range  of  experience,  and  the  shadows  of  the  past  cannot 
but  come  in  with  manifold  forms  over  us  all  this  day.  But  especially  do  we 
a4}  this  moment  indulge  in  the  recollection  of  religious  privileges  enjoyed  for 
a  long  time  by  many  of  us  under  your  efficient  tuition.  Lessons  fa]l  of 
thought,  prayers  distinguished  by  devout  fervour,  labours  characterized  by 
untiring  and  unwavering  zeal,  recur  to  our  memories  with  fresh  and  vivid 
power,  and  make  us  feel  how  immense  are  our  obligations  to  you,  and  our 
responsibilities  to  God ;  not,  indeed,  without  the  humbling  sense  of  much  mis- 
improvement  on  our  part,  but  yet  associated  in  many  instances  with  con- 
sciousness of  much  spiritual  profit. 

*'  We  congratulate  you,  reverend  and  dearly  loved  friend,  on  this  deeply 
interesting  occasion,  that  through  so  many  years  you  have  not  shunned  to 
declare  unto  us  'all  the  counsd  of  Gk>d.'  Your  warning  voice  from  the 
pulpit,  your  wise  and  faithful  instructions  in  the  school,  your  usefol  and 
aalutaory  lessons  in  the  theological  and  senior  classes,  have  made  upon  our 
minds  an  impression  which  cannot  be  easily  effaced. 

"  "We  congratulate  you  farther,  dear  Sir,  that,  frt>m  the  beginning  of  your 
missionary  career,  you  have  maintained  a  character  not  only  unimpeachable, 
but  one  adorned  by  so  much  of  Christian  simplicity,  refinement,  and  courteous- 
ness,  as  to  win  the  love  and  esteem  of  all  who  have  been  intrusted  to  your  care, 
or  brought  within  the  circle  of  your  influence.  The  place  you  occupy  in  our 
hearts,  and  the  amount  of  your  persevering  labour  in  connection  with  the 
London  Missionary  Society,  at  this  Station,  will  long  continue  to  appear  as 
an  ornament.  These  are  better  proofs  and  more  enduring  illustrations  of 
your  high  and  honourable  usefulness,  of  your  zeal  and  earnestness,  as  a  fSEuth- 
fal  missionary  of  the  Cross  in  this  benighted  land,  than  the  feeble  words  which 
we  are  able  to  write  on  this  frail  memorial. 

*'  Nor  can  we  omit  to  refer  to  that  extended  usefulness  with  which  the  Head 
of  the  Church  has  honoured  you  to  enjoy,  as  a  tutor  in  the  Native  Seminary 
at  this  Station,  in  preparing  and  training  up  devoted  and  faithfiil  servants  of 
the  glorious  €k>spel,  who,  as  we  are  well  aware,  are  now  zealously  labouring 
in  the  different  parts  of  the  Canarese  country. 

"  We  can  confidently  assert  that  the  present  efficient  footing  of  the  Canarese 
ministry  owes  its  prosperity.mainly  to  your  exertions. 

"  The  language  of  flattery  we  do  not  employ ;  we  only  utter,  and  that  very 
imperfectly,  what  we  feel  to  be  the  truth. 

''  We  would  glorify  God  in  you,  and  to  Him,  the  Fountain  of  all  good,  we 
desire,  amidst  our  grateM  recollections,  to  render  praise  and  honour  for  the 
usefulness  with  whidi  He  has  crowned  your  labours.  Our  earnest  prayer  is, 
that  your  valuable  life  may  be  spared  for  many  years  to  come,  and  that  the 
g^racious  smile  of  our  Heavenly  Father  may  rest  upon  you  and  the  beloved 
partner  of  your  life,  who  has  equally  the  heart  of  a  missionaiy,  and  who  has 
so  long  laboured,  in  season  and  out  of  season,  for  the  moral,  mental,  and  social 
elevation  of  the  mass  of  the  female  population  of  Bangalore.  With  her  depar-

SOUTH   AFRICA. 

GEAAF  EEINET. 

Wb  hare  read  with  unusual  pleasure  (a  ffeeling  in  which  we  are  asBnred 
our  readers  will  sympathize)  the  following  statement  from  the  pubHc  journal 
of  Gbaap  Rkhtet,  descriptive  of  the  Mission  Church  in  that  town,  under  the 
pastoral  care  of  our  long  tried  and  devoted  friend  the  Rev.  Joseph  KixcHiKe- 
XAir.     We  can  vouch  for  the  accuracy  of  this  etsAegf^^i^  ^^^op^documents  in

awt  possenkm  froMi  the  pen  of  Mr.  K. ;  but  we  prefer,  zatber  to  g^ve  the  testi- 
meny  of  a  diaiiitere^ttd  and  oazidid  witneee  to  the  valoe  and  efficiency  of  his 
ministerial  labonrs.  It  is  but  a  few  years  sinoe  that  we  s^Krald  hare  sought 
in  VBin  for  a  similar  testimony  throughout  the  South  African  Colonial  Press. 
On  the  contrary,  in  liiat  day  it  teemed  with  insult  and  abuse  of  the  devoted 
Dr.  Phtltp  and  his  fellow  labourers,  and  with  the  grossest  miarepresentatioas 
of  the  native  tribes.  It  should  be  remembered  that  many  of  the  members  of 
Mr.  Kitchingman's  Church  were  then  Hottentot  slaves^  scarcely  capable  of 
receiving  the  knowledge  of  Christianity,  and  withal  morally  and  socially 
debased  to  a  degree  that  rendered  all  efforts  for  their  civilization  and  conver- 
sion utterly  Utopian.  Let  the  enemies  of  Missions  read  the  following 
editoiied  article,  and  be  silent  if  they  cannot  commend ;  and  let  the  Mends 
of  MisBions  devoutly  ponder  the  blessed  transformation  here  presented,  and 
gratefully  exclaim,  "  What  hath  God  wrought  I " 

"  It  is  refreshing  in  these  times,  when  so  much  controversy  and  unpleasant 
bickerings  prevail  in  the  theological  world,  to  notice  the  good  which  is  being 
quietly  and  steadily  accomplished  among  our  coloured  population.  The 
Church  which  is  under  the  pastorship  of  the  Rev.  J.  Kitchingman  was 
eetablished  here  many  years  since  by  the  London  Missionary  Society,  and 
entirely  supported  by  it ;  but  some  three  years  since  the  congregation  resolved 
to  relieve  the  Society  of  the  burden  of  their  srq^port,  and  become  a  self- 
aapportixki^independsot  Church. 

^  On  Wedaeaday  eveaimg  last  they  held  a  social  soiree  to  celebrate  the 
third  aimiversaiy  of  their  independence,  and  from  the  r^Hwt  then  read  we 
glean  the  fbllowing^  particulars : — The  Church  consists  of  128  members ;  during 
the  last  year  seventeen  new  members  ha^e  been  received,  and  there  are 
between  thirty  and  forty  candidates  for  membership.  These  candidates  have 
to  go  through  a  long  course  of  instruction  and  probation,  and  are  not 
admitted  to  full  membership  until  they  have  given  sufficient  evidence  that 
they  are  in  some  way  worthy  of  that  privilege.  An  out-station  has  been 
formed  at  Petersburg,  and  a  neat  commodious  chapel  built  there,  in  which 
Mr.  Eiitchingniaii  officiates  once  a  month.  Several  fiEurms  in  the  district  are 
also  visited  periodicaliyby  that  gentleman,  who,  in  his  address,  boi*e  'gratefrd 
testimony  to  the  kindness  of  the  farmers  in  assisting  him  in  every  way  to 
accompliflh  the  end  he  has  in  view.'  Thoi^h  the  past  year  has  been  a  trying 
one,  the  congregation  very  laudably  exerted  themselves;  and  after  paying 
their  minister's  salary  and  some  £56  for  current  expenses,  such  as  l^^ht- 
ing,  &c.,  have  a  cash  balance  in  their  favour  of  upwards  of  £68.  These  few 
facts  show  what  can  be  done  where  imity  prevails  and  an  earnest  effort  is 
made  to  accomplish  r.  jood  work. 

**  Those  who  have  resided  in  Graaf  Reinet  during  the  last  ten  or  fifteen 
years  nrast  know,  from  their  own  observation,  that  Mr.  S!itchingman's  con- 
gregation contains  a  large  number  of  the  most  respectable  and  trustworthy 
persons  of  the  coloured  class.  During  the  recent  deeHns  of  bnsmess  here,  and 
conaeopieBit  distress  amongst  the  working  people,  those  of  Mr.  Eitchingman's 
congregation  have  in  many  instances  rdiered  and  assisted  each  other  most 


316  MISSIONARY  MAGAZINE 

creditably,  and  not  a  single  instance  of  destitution  has  been  made  public. 
It  is  too  much  the  fashion  here  to  despise  the  coloured  class  of  our  population, 
and  to  suppose  that  their  religion  is  something  quite  different  from  ours,  if 
not  altogether  a  mere  pretence.  Their  teachers,  of  course,  come  in  for  their 
share  of  abuse,  but  are  better  able  to  bear  it,  whether  it  be  just  or  not.  How- 
ever, it  is  gratifying  to  refer  to  the  facts  aboTC  mentioned ;  and  thej  seem  to 
utter  a  quiet  reproach  to  some  other  congregations,  who,  far  more  favoured 
in  a  worldlj  sense,  are  unable  or  unwilling  even  to  provide  for  the  support  of 
their  ministers.  We  wish  the  Bev.  Mr.  Kitchingman  and  his  congregation 
'  Grod  speed '  in  their  good  work,  and  trust  that  their  example  maj  stimulate 
zeal  and  emulation  amongst  others." 

We  are  happy  in  being  able  to  state  that  several  other  of  the  Mission 
Churches  within  the  Cape  Colony  are  in  the  same  honourable  position  of 
self-support  and  prosperity  as  that  at  Graaf  Reinet. 


DECEASE  OF  THE  EEV.  J.  M.  MILLS,  OF  SAMOA. 

Iif  the  last  number  of  our  Magazine  it  was  our  painful  duty  to  report  the 
early  decease  of  Mas.  Bibd,  of  Samoa,  and  to  connect  with  it  the  almost 
hopeless  state  of  her  husband ;  and  we  r^^et  to  add  that  these  moumM 
tidings  have  been  confirmed  by  more  recent  intelligence.  It  now  devolves 
on  us  to  add  to  these  records  of  suffering  and  death  the  departure  of  a 
devoted  young  brother,  the  Rev.  J.  M.  Mills,  which  occurred  at  Malua,  in 
the  island  of  TJpolu,  on  the  14th  of  May  last. 

The  deceased  was  the  son  of  the  Rev.  Wm.  Mills,  one  of  the  first  band  of 
European  labourers  sent  out  by  the  Society  to  Samoa  in  the  year  1835.  He 
was  educated  at  Glasgow,  where,  in  connection  with  a  sound  literary  and 
theological  course,  he  studied  medicine  and  surgery — a  branch  of  science, 
next  to  the  direct  exercise  of  the  ministry,  the  most  valuable  to  the  mis- 
sionary, especially  in  a  semi-barbarous  country.  He  married  the  eldest 
daughter  of  our  devoted  brother  Dk.  Tubkeb,  and  sailed  in  company  with 
him  and  Mrs.  Turner  to  Australia  in  the  early  part  of  1863,  and  thence  by 
the  missionary  barque,  "  John  Williams,"  to  Samoa,  where  they  arrived  in 
November  following. 

The  devoted  young  missionary  and  his  wife  entered  at  once  on  their 
course  with  great  earnestness,  and  with  enlarged  hopes  of  happiness  and 
usefulness  in  the  work  to  which  their  lives  were  consecrated.  They  were 
received  by  the  natives  with  unusual  delight,  as  being  children  of  the 
fathers  of  the  Samoan  Mission,  a  fact  noticed  by  Dr.  Turner  in  the  subjoined 
letter.  But  Mr.  Mills  had  scarcely  entered  on  his  twofold  labours  before 
he  fell  a  victim  to  the  most  aggravated  form  of  typhus  fever;   and  he  died 


FOR  NOVEMBER,    1864.  317 

amidst  the  lamentationBy  not  only  of  his  youthfiil  widow  and  her  parents, 
but  of  his  Samoan  countrymen,  for  whose  temporal  and  spiritual  welfare  he 
had  cheerfully  relinquished  the  attractions  and  advantages  of  English  life. 

"  I  have  now/'  writes  Dr.  T., "  a  very  mournful  tale  to  tell  you.  Mr.  Mills,  to 
whomyou  looked  with  so  much  interest  as  the  son  of  a  missionary,  and  with  whom 
you  parted  only  fourteen  months  since,  is  nownolonger  amongus.  He  died  here 
of  fever  on  the  14th  of  May.  After  having  been  ailing  a  little  for  about  a  week  he 
cameup  here  thinking  that,  by  God's  blessing  on  a  little  rest  and  change,  he  would 
soon  be  well  again.  But  death  was  in  the  cup.  An  intermittent  merged  into  a 
continued  fever,  which  in  five  days  carried  him  off.  He  treated  his  own  case,  to  a 
considerable  extent,  consulting,  of  course,  Mr.  Nisbet  and  myself,  until  Monday 
the  9th,  when  delirium  set  in.  On  the  Tuesday  we  got  Dr.  Grappe,  a  German 
physician  from  Apia,  who  took  up  the  case  with  evident  skill,  and  with  much 
sympathy.  He  did  all  he  could  for  the  dear  sufferer,  but  in  vain.  He 
breathed  his  last  at  a  quarter  to  one,  a.m.  on  Saturday  the  14th,  in  the  24th 
year  of  his  age.  He  continued  insensible,  and  has  left  no  '  dying  testimony ;' 
but  his  life  of  faith  and  attachment  to  the  cause  of  his  Lord  and  Master  is 
proof  sufficient  of  his  safety  for  eternity.  His  body  is  buried  in  a  small 
cemeteiy  attached  to  our  Institution^  and  rests  side  by  side  with  the  remains 
of  Brother  Stallworthy. 

*'  No  young  missionary,  perhaps,  was  ever  held  in  higher  estimation  by  his 
people,  and  perhaps  no  one  ever  entered  on  his  work  with  brighter  prospects. 
It  was  natural  that  the  people  should  fed  a  peculiar  attachment,  both  to 
Mr.  and  Mrs.  Mills,  as  they  were  the  first  of  the  children  of  the  Samoan  Mis- 
sion to  follow  in  the  footsteps  of  their  parents.  The  people  looked  upon  their 
arrival  as  an  answer  to  prayer,  and  as  an  earnest  that,  instead  of  the  fathers, 
ihey  will  eventually  have  the  children.  Mr.  Mills's  medical  knowledge  was 
also  highly  valued,  and  attracted  the  sick  from  all  quarters.  Much  of  his 
time  was  spent  in  giving  advice  and  dispensing  medicine.  He  over-exerted 
himself,  I  fear,  in  this  department,  combined  with  other  duties  which  press 
on  a  missionary  at  the  outset  of  his  work.  It  was  in  his  heart  to  do  much  for 
€k>d  among  the  people  of  Aana,  Manono  and  Apolima,  and  they  knew  it  weU. 
They  are  all  mourning  over  this  sad  event.  I  visited  Aana  a  few  days  ago, 
and  found  all  the  people  in  deep  gprief  '  We  can  do  nothing,'  said  they, '  but 
mourn.  It  is  like  the  week  after  a  dreadful  battde,  every  one  weeping  over 
the  slain.'  They  were  remarkably  fond  of  their  new  missionary,  and  perhaps 
we  all  erred  in  this  respect.  Now  we  have  a  severe  rebuke,  and  may  it  be 
blessed  in  leading  all  of  us,  for  the  future,  to  look  less  to  man  and  more  to 
God."

NEW   TEAE'S    SACEAHEIITAL   OFFEBING 

TO  THE  JfVSD  FOB  THE 

WIDOWS     AOT)     ORPHANS     OF     DECEASED      MISSIONARIES 

AND 

MISSIONARIES  INCAPACITATED  FOR  LABOUR  BY  AGE 
AND  INFIRMITT. 

The  near  approach  of  another  year  will  remind  the  Christian  Churches  asso- 
ciated with  the  Society  of  their  annual  obligations  to  the  widows  and  orphans 
of  departed  missionaries,  and  to  those  aged  servants  of  Christ  whose  days  of 
toil  are  over,  and  the  close  of  whose  earthly  pilgrimage  cannot  be  distant. 
This  duty  our  Christian  Mends  have  performed  for  many  years  past,  with 
cheerfulness  and  liberality,  as  a  firee-will  offering  at  the  table  of  the  Lord, 
when  they  commemorate  His  love  on  the  first  Sabbath  in  the  new  year. 
Although  the  number  of  claimants  on  the  widows'  fond  has  from  time  to 
time  increased,  yet  the  aggregate  amount  of  the  contributions  has,  with  the 
exception  of  a  single  year,  been  annually  augmented :  and  thus  the  Directors 
have  had  the  great  pleasure  of  meeting  every  case  of  sorrow  as  it  has 
arisen* 

During  the  year  now  closing,  Five  additional  Widows  have  become  depen- 
dent on  the  Fund.  The  total  number  now  amounts  to  TniKTT-rivE.  Eleven 
aged  and  incapacitated  Missionaiuss  are  supported  from  the  same  source. 
To  these  must  be  added  SixTY-FOim  flEitherless  children :  making  a  total  of 
Oke  Huitoked  and  ten  individuals. 

It  will  be  gratifying  to  the  Contributors  to  know,  in  reference  to  the 
last-named  class — the  fatherless  children  of  our  departed  brethren — that  the 
aid  afforded  from  the  Fund  is  applied  to  secure  for  them  the  benefits  of  a 
useful  and  Christian  education,  by  which  they  may  be  qualified  to  occupy 

TOL.  xxvni. — 1864.  k

respectable  stations  in  society,  and,  with  God's  blessing,  to  become  humble 
and  fiedthful  disciples  of  Him  in  whose  service  their  fathers  lived  and  died. 

These  Annual  Contributions  to  the  Widows'  Fund,  as  the  Directora  have 
often  been  assured,  have  afforded  devout  gratification  to  the  generous  friends 
from  whom  they  have  been  received ;  while  the  bereaved  and  worn-out  objects 
of  their  Christian  regard  have  not  only  felt  the  value  of  the  help  so  kindly 
given,  but  have  received  it  as  an  expression  of  sympathetic  affection  and 
Christian  respect  to  the  memory  of  the  departed. 

The  Directors  of  the  Society  would  on  this  occasion  renew  the  assurance 
which  they  have  annually  made,  that  they  would  deprecate  any  interference, 
even  on  behalf  of  the  widows  and  orphans  of  missionaries,  with  the  first  and 
obvious  duty  of  the  Churches  to  care  for  their  poor  brethren ;  and  again  they 
ask  only,  that  at  the  first  communion  service  in  the  year  [that  is,  Lord's 
Day,  January  let,  1865],  each   Christian    communicant   who   is  willing, 

MAY  HAVE  THE  OPPORTUNITY  OF  MAKING  SOME  ADDITION  TO  HIS  USUAL  CON- 
TRIBUTION, AND  THAT  THE  AMOUNT  CONTRIBUTED  OVER  AND  ABOVE  THE  AVERAGE 
OP  THE  ORDINARY  SACRAMENTAL  COLLECTION  MAT  BE  APPROPRIATED  FOR  THE 
RELIEF  OF  THE  WiDOWS  AND  FATHERLESS  CHILDREN  OF  DEPARTED  MISSION- 
ARIES, AND  OP  THOSE  VENERABLE  SERVANTS  OF  ChRIST  WHOSE  YEARS  AND 
ENERGIES   HAVE   BEEN    SPENT   IN   THEIR   DiVINE   MaSTER's   SERVICE. 

The  Directors  very  urgently  request  the  co-operation  of  Christian  Pastors 
in  this  expression  of  sympathy  and  love,  by  presenting  this  appeal  to  the 
Officers  and  Members  of  their  Churches,  and  soliciting  their  kind  compliance 
with  the  application. 

Signed  on  behalf  of  the  Directors, 

EBENEZBR  PROUT,  J 
iSClSBiON  KouSB,  l9t  Dec.y  1854. 

P.S. — It  is  respectfully  requested  that  the  amount  specially  contributed  in 
reply  to  this  Appeal  be  transmitted  separately  and  without  delay  to  the  Rev. 
Ebenezer  Prout,  Home  Secretary. 

It  is  hoped  that,  should  it  be  found  impracticable  to  make  the  Sacramental 
Offerings  now  solicited  on  the  first  Sabbath  of  next  months  our  Christian 
friends  will  kindly  embrace  the  fixst  Sabbath  in  Pebruary  for  the  occasion.

APPEAL  OF  THE  DIRECTORS 

TO  THE  FRIENDS  OF  THE  SOCIETY,  AND  ESPECIALLY  TO  THE 

JUVENILE  CLASSES,  FOR  FUNDS  FOR  THE 

PURCHASE  AND  OUTFIT  OF  A  NEW  MISSIONARY  SHIP. 

The  inteUigence  conveyed  in  our  last  nnmber,  of  the  wreck  of  the  **  John 
"Williams  "  off  Danger  Island,  in  the  South  Pacific  Ocean,  on  the  1 7th  of 
May  last,  has  been  confirmed,  with  all  the  attendant  circumstances  then 
given,  by  the  arrival  of  Captain  "WiliKims  in  this  country  on  the  17th  ult. 
"We  are  thankful  that  the  Captain's  personal  assurance  confirms  the  report 
formerly  made  of  the  mercifiil  rescue  both  of  the  passengers  and  the  crew, 
their  kind  reception  by  the  natives  of  Danger  Island,  and  their  prosperous 
voyage  homeward. 

The  necessity  of  provi^ng  a  missionary  ship  to  succeed  the  *'John 
"Williams  "  is  a  conviction  which  has  been  strengthened  by  the  ezperience  of 
twenty  yeai-s,  during  which  that  messenger  of  mercy  ploughed  the  southern 
sea,  and  carried  the  tidings  of  heavenly  love  to  the  cruel  and  degraded 
savages  by  which  its  numerous  islands  are  peopled.  No  substitute  for  a 
muiionary  ship  can  be  found;  that  is,  no  hired  vessel,  navigated  by  an 
ordinary  body  of  seamen,  could  in  like  degree  insure  the  comfort  of  the 
missionaries,  the  confidence  of  the  natives,  and  the  advancement  of  the 
missions. 

The  Directors  therefore  feel  constrained  promptly  to  apply  to  all  friends  of 
the  Society,  and  especially  to  the  young,  whose  zeal  and  liberality  have 
never  failed,  to  be  up  and  doing,  that  another  "  John  "Williams  "  may  be 
aemt  forth  from  our  shores  in  the  earlicBt  meath  of  the  coming  year  th«t  may 
be  £>uiid  practicable. 

As  was  intimated  in  our  periodical  last  mon^,  the  Mends,  and  especially 
tlie  children,  both  of  Polynesia  and  Australia,  haive  already  set  an  example 
to  liie  children  of  Britain.  The  first  offering  for  the  new  ship  was  made  by 
iiie  native  youth  of  Danger  Island,  while  the  missionaries  and  passengers 
were  refugees  among  them,  and  Mrs.  "Williams  was  intrusted  with  their  con- 
tributioxis,  amounting  to  £3  5*.,  to  place  in  the  hands  of  Dr.  Tidmar.  The 
ehildren  of  Samoa,  and  the  native  Christians  also,  began  to  collect  funds  as 
aoos.  as  they  heard  of  the  calamity  which  had  befallai  their  old  and  lauch 
loved  vessel ;  and  the  Christian  youths  throughout  the  several  Colomea  of 
Australia  have  fer  many  weeks  pa^  be^i  zealously  engaged  in  the  some 
la]K>nar  of  love. 

In  making  these  gratifying  statements  to  our  young  friends,  we  have  no 
mistgiving  as  to  the  renewal  of  their  zealous  and  generous  efforts  on  the 
present  occasion.  Already  uumerous  and  urgent  applications  have  been 
made  at  the  Mission  House  by  the  superintendents  of  Sunday  schools,  and 
the  friends  and  guardians  of  our  youth  generally,  for  intelligence  and  other

means  for  obtaining  contributions.  Many  thousand  collecting-cards,  books, 
&c.,  have  been  sent  forth ;  and  we  doubt  not  that,  by  the  close  of  the  first 
month  in  the  new  year,  we  shall  have  to  announce  such  progress  as  will  give 
assurance  of  early  and  entire  success. 

It  is  impossible  at  the  present  time  to  state  the  exact  amount  which  will 
be  required,  but  certainly  not  less  a  sum  than  Five  Thousand  Pounds,  exclu- 
sive of  the  amount  for  which  the  "  John  Williams '  *  was  insured,  will  be 
required  to  provide  a  new  vessel  with  an  adequate  outfit. 


MADAGASCAK. 

We  have  received  during  the  past  month  several  communications  from  our 
missionary  brethren  in  the  city  of  Antananauivo,  and  we  are  happy  to  state 
that  they  confirm  generally  the  intelligence  we  have  communicated  monthly 
in  our  periodical.  Much — ^very  much— of  the  future  welfare  and  prosperity 
of  the  country  must  depend  upon  the  firmness  and  the  moderation  with 
which  the  Native  Government  is  administered.  It  must  not  be  forgotten 
that  both  the  Sovereign  and  her  Ministers  are  heathen  ;  but  they  have  hitherto 
granted  not  only  toleration,  but  just  and  equal  liberty  to  their  countrymen 
who  have  embraced  the  Gospel ;  while  to  the  missionaries  generally,  and  to 
our  venerable  friend  the  Rev.  William  Ellis  in  particular,  they  have  shown 
great  personal  respect.  We  have  room  only  for  a  short  extract  from  our 
correspondence,  reporting  the  opening  of  a  new  Chapel  {native),  with  which 
we  are  persuaded  our  readers  will  be  gratified. 

"  I  furnished  the  materials/'  writes  Mr.  EUis,  "  and  the  people  found  the 
labour  necessary  to  build  a  chapel  that  will  hold  700,  or  perhaps  800. 
The  Native  Pastor  of  Ambohipotsy  and  myself  preached  at  the  opening 
service  on  the  25th  of  August,  when  the  place  was  crammed.  The  high 
o£&cers,  who  had  been  present  at  the  service,  with  Mr.  Briggs,  who  has  been 
appointed  Minister  of  the  place,  and  Mr.  and  Mrs.  Hartley,  afterwards  dined 
with  me.  We  were  fourteen  in  number,  and  the  guests  expressed  thems^ves 
pleased  with  the  accomplishment  of  their  wishes — ^the  opening  of  the  chapel 
in  that  neighbourhood.  On  the  following  Sabbath  morning  (last  Sabbath 
day)  I  preached  in  the  chapel,  which  was  about  three-fourths  frdl.  Many  of 
the  people  seemed  to  have  been  unaccustomed  to  attend  a  place  of  worship ; 
and,  with  the  blessing  of  the  Great  Head  of  the  Church  on  Mr.  Briggs's 
labours,  I  cannot  but  hope  the  erection  will  prove  a  means  of  encouragement 
to  the  Christians  in  the  neighbourhood,  and  of  extending  the  influence  of  the 
€k>8pel  in  this  portion  of  the  capital.  We  shall  open  a  school  as  soon  as 
practicable,  in  connection  with  the  place ;  and  I  am  making  inquiries  for  a  house 
in  the  neighbourhood  which  might  be  hired  for  Mr.  Briggs's  accommodation 
until  the  next  good  season,  when  it  will  be  desirable  for  him  to  build  a  per- 
manent dwelling,  as  near  to  the  chapel  as  suitable  ground  can  be  obtained. 


FOK  DECEMBER,    1864.  325 

I  da  not  think  it  will  diminiah  the  attendance  %t  any  of  the  existing  congrega- 
tions, excepting  so  far  as  the  Christians  residing  in  the  immediate  vicinity  of 
the  new  temporary  building  may  be  concerned ;  and  it  was,  in  the  rainy 
seasons  especially,  difficult  for  them  to  get  with  their  families  to  distant 
places  of  worship  more  than  once  on  the  Lord's  day." 


POLYITESIA. 

SEIZURE  OP  THE  LOYALTY  ISLANDS  BY  THE  FRENCH  AT7TH0RITIE8  OP  NEW 
CALEDONIA,  AND  GROSS  OUTRAGES  ON  OUR  MISSIONARIES  AND  THE  NATIVE 
PROTESTANT   CHRISTIANS. 

The  intelligence  of  these  moumfiil  facts  has  already,  through  the  medium 
of  the  daily  journals,  been  universally  made  known ;  and  it  cannot  bo 
doubted  that,  in  the  minds  of  the  Christian  public,  and  of  the  Jfriends  of  the 
London  Missionary  Society  in  particular,  it  has  awakened  feelings  of  deep 
sorrow  and  righteous  indignation. 

The  Loyalty  Group  consiBts  of  three  Islands,  Lifu,  Mare,  and  Uea.  Of 
these  Lifu,  the  scene  of  these  French  outrages,  is  the  largest,  containing  a 
population  of  7000  souls.  Into  these  Islands  the  Gospel  was  introduced  by 
Agents  of  our  Society  nearly  twenty  years  since.  Native  Teachers  from 
Barotonga  and  Samoa,  were  pioneers  to  our  English  Brethren.  In  the 
year  1 864,  Messrs.  Creagh  and  Jones,  with  their  wives,  settled  on  the  Island 
of  Mori,  and  in  1859,  Messrs.  Macfarlane  and  Baker  entered  on  the 
Island  of  Lifu,  Many  of  our  readers  will  also  remember,  with  regard  to 
the  smaller  Island  of  Uea  that  tte  people  were,  on  occasion  of  the  last  visit 
of  the  **  John  "Williams,"  ready  to  employ  kind  violence  to  detain  among 
them  Missionary  Brethren  appointed  for  other  Islands ;  and  Mb.  Ella  had 
actually  arrived  with  a  view  of  settling  on  that  Island,  when  this  oppressive 
act  of  French  authority  occurred. 

lyTew  Caledonia,  the  largest  Island  in  that  part  of  the  Pacific,  was  seized 
by  the  Government  of  France  about  the  year  1852,  with  a  view  of  making 
it  a  penal  settlement,  and  there  the  French  authority  has  since  existed  under 
.  a  Governor  and  a  body  of  French  troops.  The  Loyalty  Group  of  islands  has 
been  claimed  by  the  French  authorities  as  dependencies  on  Ifew  Caledonia, 
though  without  any  proof  that  they  have  ever  been  so  regarded  either  by 
the  natives  of  the  one  or  the  other,  as  their  language,  their  customs,  and 
their  government,  were  in  many  important  particulars  dissimilar.  But,  by 
the  French  Government  of  New  Caledonia,  this  right  has  been  asserted ;  and 
in  this  case,  as  in  every  other  instance  where  French  authority  has  been 
established  in  a  foreign  country,  Catholic  Missionaries  have  been  sent  forth, 
not  only  for  the  benefit  of  the  troops,  but  specially  with  a  view  to  the 
conversion  of  the  natives. 

Soon  after  the  occupation  of  Kew  Caledonia,  these  teachers  of  Eomish 
superstition  made  their  appearance  on  the  Islands  of  the  Loyalty  Group, 


326  MISSIONARY  MA0AZIKE 

often  attempting  to  coerce  the  natiyes  by  threats  of  Pcench  aathoriiy,  as  a 
pnnifihment  for  the  people  when  they  have  refused  to  submit  to  their  in- 
atructions.  As  smne  of  the  chie&  hare  continued  practically  heathen,  and 
in  avtaie  of  ho^ility  to  otiiers  who  have  embraoed  Protestant  tmth,  a  ieew 
of  the  former  have  embraced  Popery,  fOT  the  sake  of  obtaining  the  alHanoe 
and  support  of  the  French  power.  These  separate  interests  have  at  length 
been  made  the  occasion  for  the  seizure  of  the  Island  of  Lifu  by  the  authorities 
(yi  New  Caledonia,  and  for  the  suppression,  at  least  for  the  present,  of  all 
active  operations  of  our  missionaries  and  their  native  assistants.  Thus  the 
scenes  enacted  in  the  Idand  of  Tahiti,  move  than  twenty  years  ainoe^  have 
been  repeated  on  Lifii. 

The  Directors  of  the  Society  will  not  Ml  to  bring  these  gross  and  in- 
tolerant outragea  under  the  attention  of  our  Government,  in  the  hope  that, 
by  remonstrance  with  the  Government  of  France,  they  may  hereafter  be 
disowned ;  and  that  English  Protestant  Missionaries  may  at  least  be  allowed 
to  live  and  labour  among  the  islanders,  whom  they  found  in  a  state  of  utter 
barbarism,  and  who  owe  their  civilization  to  the  knowledge  and  the  influence 
of  their  Christian  teaching. 

The  following  communication  has  been  addnessed  to  the  Directors  by  the 
Eev.  S.  Macfarlane : — 

"  Wide  Bay,  lafh,  Jim«  ^,  1864. 

"Ebv.  ^nd  DBAS  Si]t,*-Whilat  oar  brethren  labouring  on  the  islanis 
where  tiie  Peruviaii  slavers  lately  oommitt«d  their  outrages  are  monming 
c^rer  fatherless  children,  husbamdleas  wives,  and  desolate  homea,  we,  in 
the  Loyalty  group,  are  witnessing,  with  mingled  boitow  and  indignation, 
the  grossest  violation  of  the  most  sacred  rites  and  dea2<est  interests  of 
<if  these  natives. 

"  Two  years  ago  I  was  deputed  by  the  brethren  in  this  group  to  express  to 
ffis  Excellency  the  Governor  of  New  Caledonia  our  desire  to  recommence 
Protestant  Missions  upon  that  large  and  important  island.  I  had  an  inter- 
fum  with  His  Excellency  during  his  visit  here,  but  received  no  encourage- 
ment to  entertain  the  hope  that  we  akouid  he  pennitted  to  establish  a  mk- 
fiktt  upon  New  Caledonia,  ^lortly  afterwards  I  received  i&om  His  Excel- 
lency a  formal  letter  in  answer  to  our  petition,  i^iioh  I  forwarded  to  70s, 
intimating  my  conviction  of  its  ominous  character.  Since  that  period  there 
have  been  unmistakable  indications  of  an  approaching  storm.  Aa  it  became 
evident  that  an  officer  and  a  number  of  soldiers  would  soon  be  located  on  this 
island,  and  at  my  station,  I  felt  the  desirability  of  being  able  to  cpmmunicate 
with  them,  not  knowing  who  might  be  my  interpreter,  and,  having  a  horror 
of-  interpreters  under  any  circumstances,  I  therefore  devoted  myself  to  the 
acquisition  of  the  French  language,  in  which  I  am  happy  to  be  able  to 
correspond. 

PBIBBTLT  ABTIPICE  AND  INFLVBHCE. 

*'  The  priests,  baffled  and  discouraged  by  the  ineffioacy  of  their  bribes  aaxL 
threats,  have  had  recourse  to  other  mearares  equally  mean  and  contemptible. 
One  of  them,  whilst  threatening  an  intelligent  y<mng  native,  asked  if  he  wws

not  a&aid  of  the  EreneliP  The  yoiuig  man  gare  a  mart  empJnAio  md 
ixkdigxuuat  replj  in  the  negatiTe,  and  is  vef^orted  to  hare  said, '  Wlio  am  tbe 
Frenck  that  I  should  £3ar  them?'  This  part  of  the  tmawer  was  oaawfoHgr 
recorded  in  the  pocket-book  of  the  priest,  with  the  jonng  man's  BAme.  Oast 
in  the  mould  of  Jesiiitittii,  it  soon  a^eared  in  the  form  of  a  formidable 
document  impeaching  the  loyalty  of  the  ProtestaAts  in  this  group,  wlikh  was 
placed  in  the  hands  of  a  Roman  Catholic  chief,  who  embraced  the  first  oppor- 
tunity of  taking  it  across  to  New  Caledonia  and  presentu^  it  to  the 
Governor. 

"  Another  priest  charges  us  with  attempting  to  make  this  island  like  an 
JSnffiuh  colony.  We  are  committing  the  very  serious  crime  of  teaehing  lite 
English  language  instead  of  the  French,  of  circulating  the  Scrif^nres  Mnong 
the  nati;ve8,  and  of  teaching  them  to  observe  the  Sabbath  as  in  ^B^l^>H[ 
(The  repeated  attempts  c^  the  priests  to  iaixoduee  o^rtain  games  upon  i^ 
Sabbath  have  utterly  failed,  even  among  thear  own  people.)  DuBiig»a«i«)«nt 
interview  with  a  French  officer  I  was  informed  that '  these  things  ought  not 
to  be  in  a  French  colony,'  that  our  mode  of  observing  the  Sal^ath  utas 
*€^eedingly  haiefkd  to  the  Governor  4ind  all  ^nenchmen,*  and  that  His  Excel- 
lency fuUy  intended  to  er^force  the  observance  of  the  Sabbath  as  in  Eranee. 
I  caressed  my  sorrow  and  surprise  ait  such  intdligence,  and  aasmml  kun 
that  it  would  probably  prove  the  most  sanguinary  task  whidi  the  Qiyveatar 
had  ever  undertaken,  as  these  natives  ore  devotedly  attadted  to  thttir  ^aiisUug 
forms  of  worship,  and  would  ccHisider  such  unjustifiable  proeeediligs  as  a 
direct  interference  with  their  most  sacsed  zites. 

THE  FBEIKIR  TLAG  VLASTWD  OK  THB  TSIiAjn>. 

Tou  will  easily  peroeive  ikt^  the  priests  are  here  adopting  a  polky 
twiilfir  to  that  which  proved  too  effective  at  Tahiti.  They  are  endeavoitriiig 
to  seoure  the  sympathy  and  aid  of  the  secular  arm  to  counteract  and  wea&en 
<fQr  inflvence.  Th^  intrigues  and  uHSi^epresentatioBS  hove,  to  9ome  eiftettt, 
IMPodoced  the  desired  effect.  At  Tahiti  they  solii^ted  and  obtained  the  aid  of 
the  French  Govenunent  to  establish  themsMves  on  tire  island,  w^tereas  here 
they  hsfie  been  permitted  to  isrtrude  and  prosecute  tibeir  iUkhours  unmoleBted, 
upon  ground  wiiich  t^e  London  Missionary  Society  has  occupied  since  19^. 
Hot  satisfted  with  an  open  field  andftxir  play,  they  have  been  unwearied  in 
^tiietr  esertions  to  prevail  upon  the  Government  at  New  Caledonia  to  come 
orer  and  occmpy  a  position  upon  these  if^bmds,  doubtless  intimating  the  more 
than  possibility  of  this  group  being  taken  under  l^e  wing  of  our  OcAonial 
GonerBment  at  stHne  fiature  period,  simply  for  its  position.  Tbe  Freni^ 
i^^ear  to  have  taken  the  alarm.  On  the  first  of  last  month  one  of  i^ebr 
Btwwnei'B  arrived  here,  and  located  an  officer  (who  styles  hinmeif  'Com- 
mandant of  the  Loyalty  Islands ')  and  twenty-five  soldiers.  The  following 
day  the  iVcoich  flag  was  planted  upon  this  island  for  the  first  time,  and  the 
^iiiefii  informed  ti&at  they  were  no  longer  ihe  ruling  power,  that  their  larVTB 
wore  null,  that  the  island  belonged  to  tlie  French,  and  that  ihej  were  to  look 
to  the  Commandant  as  their  king,  ^ey  proceeded  at  once  to  erect  houses, 
and,  as  thatch  could  only  be  obtained  at  a  distance  of  two  or  three  miles,  the 
duafii  were  oa?dered  to  fetch  it  without  remuneration.  There  being  some 
^alay  oocaskmed  by  the  absence  of  ihe  natives  wi^%!^l^eire  engaged  in  their 


328  MISSIONABY  MAGAZINE 

respectiYe  plantations,  the  Commandant  (a  stripling  of  little  more  ihaat 
twenty  years,  who  is  evidently  thirsting  for  military  action  and  military 
glory)  had  conceived  the  idea  of  burning  down  the  village  where  I  am  located* 
in  order,  as  he  says,  *  to  teach  the  natives  a  lesson  upon  prompt  obedienoa' 
*  They  have  learnt,'  he  said,  *  how  to  obey  in  New  Caledonia,  and  they  mnst 
be  taught  here.'  I  feel  assured  that,  had  he  carried  out  these  rash  intentionB, 
the  infuriated  natives  would  have  prevented  his  ever  teaching  the  same 
lesson  to  any  one  else. 

THE  BIBLE  AND   ALT.  PUBLIC  INSTRUCTION  PEOSCRIBED. 

"  I  was  permitted  to  continue  my  labours  as  usual  for  about  three  weeks, 
when  a  vessel  arrived  from  Mar6,  bringing  two  cases  of  books  printed  in  the 
native  language.  I  then  received  from  the  Commandant  a  letter  strictly 
forbidding  the  distribution  of  all  books  printed  in  the  native  language,  and 
demanding  the  inmiediate  cessation  of  all  public  instruction.  Thus  the  hand 
of  despotism  and  popery  has  laid  its  iron  grasp  upon  what  is  most  sacred  to 
these  natives.  The  Institution  whence  they  hoped  to  receive  teachers  and 
pastors  is  closed.  The  Bible,  the  enemy  of  darkness,  despotism,  and  popeiy, 
their  solace  and  guide,  is  forbidden ;  and  schools,  in  which  they  hoped  their 
children  would  be  rendered  intelligent,  usefiil,  and  happy,  are  prohibited; 
and  we  are  politely  informed  that  the  next  step  will  be  to  enforce  the 
observance  of  the  Sabbath  as  in  France.  The  natives,  as  you  may  suppose, 
are  exceedingly  indignant,  and  justly  so.  They  are  robbed  of  their  land ; 
their  schools  are  closed ;  their  supply  of  books  is  stopped ;  and  they  are  com- 
pelled to  work  for  their  oppressors  without  remuneration.  Their  remon- 
strances are  treated  with  the  utmost  contempt,  and  to  retaliate  would  only 
hasten  their  extirpation.  Their  only  hope  is  frx>m  without;  they  look  to 
their  'fathers'  and  benefactors.  By  the  liberality  of  English  Christians 
they  have  eigoyed  for  more  than  twenty  years  the  privilege  of  Christian 
teachers,  from  whom  they  have  learnt  the  simple  and  glorious  truths  of  our 
holy  religion.  Idolatry  and  cannibalism  are  things  of  the  past.  There  are 
not  fifty  cases  of  polygamy  upon  the  island.  There  are  seventeen  Churches, 
containing  an  aggr^ate  of  about  fifteen  hxmdred  members ;  and  numerous 
out-stations  supplied  by  native  evangelists.  We  have  nearly  two  thousand 
young  people  in  our  schools,  and  about  as  many  anxious  inquirers,  who  are 
seeking  admission  to  the  Church.  Considerable  improvements  have  been 
made  in  native  dwellings,  public  roads,  <&c.  The  chief  of  this  village  resides 
in  a  house  vastly  superior  to  that  of  many  missionaries ;  it  is  elevated  about 
four  feet,  boarded  throughout,  has  glass  folding-doors  opening  upon  a  spacious 
verandah,  which  encircles  the  house,  is  frimished  with  an  English  bedstead, 
table,  chairs,  sofa,  pictures,  &c.,  which  give  it  quite  a  European  appearance. 
Many  of  the  natives  have  neat  lath-and-plaster  cottages,  and  others  aroi  in 
course  of  erection.  And  shall  the  peaceful  homes  of  these  comparatively 
enlightened  people  be  burnt,  their  property  confiscated,  their  long-cherished 
and  sacred  interests  trampled  upon,  and  the  machinery  suddenly  stopped 
which  has  produced  this  delifi^htful  and  astonishing  change  in  their  temporal 
and  spiritual  condition  ?  Will  the  friends  of  humanity,  the  lovers  of  liberty, 
and  the  professors  of  our  common  Christianity  remain  silent  and  inactive, 
and  behold  this  simple,  inoffensive  people  shorn  of  their  rites  and  threatened 


FOR  DECEMBER,    1864  329 

with  a  sword 'still  reeking'^witli  the  blood  of  their  neighbours  P  May  God 
avert  the  calamity.  These  natives  have  been  taught  the  value  of  prayer,  and 
are  now  holding  prayer- meetings  throughout  the  island.  We  are  daily 
expecting  the  arrival  of  His  Excellency  the  Governor,  who,  we  are  told,  is 
coming  with  three  ships  of  war  to  establish  a  new  order  of  things  upon  this 
group.  I  have  prepared  a  letter  for  His  Excellency,  of  which  I  inclose  an 
SngHsh  copy. 

"  The  French  regard  the  Loyalty  group  as  dependencies  of  New  Caledonia, 
yet  all  who  are  acquainted  with  these  islands  know  that  they  are  -perfeMj 
distinct.  They  are  so  physically,  politically,  geogH:*aphically,  and  philo- 
logically.  They  allege  that  when  they  take  possession  of  an  island  aU  others 
within  the  range  of  sixty  miles  are  considered  its  dependencies !  This  may  be 
a  French  way  of  taking  islands,  but  it  certainly  does  not  accord  with  the  law 
of  nations. 

▲RBIYAIi  AND  ARBITRARY  PROCEEDINGS  OF  THE  FRENCH  OOYERNOR. 

"  July  6th, — I  have  already  said  that  we  were  daily  expecting  the  Governor. 
He  arrived  here  on  the  2l8t  of  last  month,  with  two  steamers  and  about  three 
hundred  men,  a  number  of  whom  were  armed  convicts.  These  were  placed 
under  the  command  of  young  officers,  who  evidently  regarded  plundering  and 
burning  down  villages  and  shooting  natives  fine  sport.  I  had  an  interview 
with  His  Excellency  the  Governor  upon  the  day  of  his  arrival,  during  which 
he  endeavoured  to  prove  that  this  group  had  been  French  territory  for  many 
years,  and  that  we  had  no  right  to  come  here  without  first  obtaining  a  permit 
of  residence  from  the  Gk>vemmcnt  at  New  Caledonia.  I  maintained  what 
you  will  find  stated  in  my  letter  to  him,  viz.,  that  we  were  merely  carrying  on 
a  work  which  the  ttgents  of  the  London  Missionary  Society  had  commenced 
more  than  twenty  years  ago,  long  before  the  French  had  any  possessions  in 
Western  Polynesia ;  that  a  group  of  islands  which  is  physically,  politically, 
geographically,  and  philologically  distinct  from  another  cannot  be  regarded 
as  its  dependencies ;  that  we  could  not  be  justly  charged  with  violating  their 
laws,  because  there  can  be  no  disobedience  to  a  command  which  is  not  known, 
and  laws  cannot  be  known  until  they  are  published ;  therefore,  as  the  French 
flag  had  never  been  hoisted  upon  this  group,  nor  any  of  their  laws  made 
public  here,  we  did  mot  consider  it  our  duty  to  ask  from  the  Government  at 
New  Caledonia  a  permit  of  residence.  I  told  him  that  since  the  2nd  of  May, 
the  day  upon  which  the  French  flag  was  hoisted  upon  this  island,  I  had 
promptly  obeyed  every  command  issued  by  the  representative  of  his  Govern- 
ment located  here.  The  Governor  still  reiterated  his  previous  assumption, 
and  informed  me  that,  if  I  wished  to  remain  here,  it  was  necessary  for  me  to 
obtain  a  permit  of  residence,  and  repurchase  the  piece  of  ground  upon  which 
my  house  is  built,  after  which  he  would  consider  the  question  of  my  being 
permitted  to  continue  my  labours  as  a  Protestant  missionary  upon  this 
iiland.  I  returned  from  the  steamer,  wrote,  and  sent  my  request,  first,  to  be

secured  to  me  my  premises  (which  I  have  alreadyjpurchased  for  the  sum  of 
fifty-six  dollars) ;  thirdly,  to  be  allowed  to  prosecute  my  labours  as  a  mis-

raifled  my  suspicions  about  ihe  oliiieet  th^  had  in  vmw,  whidk,  aias !  were 
sooiL  to  be  confirmed.  They  retbumed  to  the  ship  shortly  afterwards.  The 
dvief  of  this  half  of  the  island,  who  is  a  Boman  Cajth<dio»  came  ashore,  and 
ae&t  to  inform  the  people  here  that  the  a(ddiers  were  coming  on  the  following 
da^r^  to  bum  down  the  villi^e,  and  kill  all  who  refused,  to  become  papists 
The  greatest  excitement  soon  prevailed ;  in  vain  I  assured  the  natives  that 
the  French  would  not  injure  them  without  a  cause.  I  even  wrote  to  the 
Commandant^  informing  him  of  tbe  siate  of  things,  and  earnestly  soliciting 
anate  from  which  I  might  reassure  the  natives  of  the  x>eaceful  intentions  of 
the^  French.  He  did  not  answer  my  note,  and  this  studied  silence  increased 
the  fears  of  the  natives,  who  determined  to  secrete  themselves  in  the  bu^ 
a/oA  wAtch  the  movements  of  the  French. 

OUTBAGBS  UPON  NATIVES. 

'^On  the  following  morning  about  one  hundred  and  fifty  soldiers-  were 
landed,  who,  being  led  by  the  Governor,  marched  through  the  village^ 
followed  by  about  thirty  Boman  Catholics.  They  proceeded  to  the  public 
road^  wh^e  they  formally  announced  that  this  island  is  a  !FVench  colony; 
that  missionaries  are  no  longer  to  conduct  schools;  that  natives  are  not  to 
talce  any  food  to  the  missionaries  unless  they  are  paid  for  it ;  they  are  also 
f^bidden  to  do  any  work  for  the  missionary  gratis ;  nor  are  they  permitted 
to  •  make  any  collection  for  the  London  Missionary  Society.  Tliey  are  to 
regard  the  Commandant  as  their  king,  and  apply  to  him  in  cases  of  dif&- 
coky,  &c.  After  this  formal  declaration,  the  soldiers  commenced  thdr  work 
of  plunder.  Fortunately,  the  natives  had  carried  most  of  their  things  into  the 
bush.  AH  that  remained  was  taken,  and  the  boxes  broken.  They  entered 
the  house  of  a  Barotongan  teacher,  who  sat  upon  his  box,  from  which  he  was 
driven  at  the  point  of  the  bayonet,  and  the  contents  of  his  scanty  wardrobe 
taton  away  before  his  eyes.  The  Boman  Catholio  party  kept  dose  behind 
ih»  soldiers,  and  were  as  active  as  they  in  the  work  of  plunder^  In  the 
evening  they  all  returned,  after  which  the  natives  poured  in  from  the  bush, 
armed  with  axes,  sticks,  clubs,  and  spears.  A  few  had  muskets.  Tbej  were 
obeerred  from  the  steamer  and  the  camp,  and  this  circumstance  is  the 
ostensible  reason  assigned  by  the  French  for  outrages  committed  upon  the 
psirsons  and  prop^Hy  of  these  poor  people.  They  came  to  me  for  advice,  and 
I  urged  them  to  lay  aside  their  weapons  and  quietly  await  the  arrival  of  the 
Gk>vemor  in  the  morning.  They  said  they  had  no  intention  to  fight,  bat 
still  were  determined  not  to  give  up  their  chiefs, .  They  had  heard. of  the 
proceedings  of  the  iVeAch  in  New  Caledonia  and  the  lile  of  Bines,  where 
neeriy  all  the  chiefshad  been  either  shoi  or  taken  to  Tahiti  as  priioner8»  and:

EXTBAOBDINABT  SCXKE  IK  THS  MISSION  CHAPBL. 

"  ft  was  Friday  morning,  the  day  upon  which  we  are  accustomed  to  hold  a 
service  at  sunrise.  I  hesitated  about  ringing  the  bell,  but  decided  to  continue 
my  labours  as  usual  until  prohibited.  The  congregation  was  composed  of 
Samoan.and  Rarotongan  teachers  and  their  wives  and  children,  and  about 
twenty  natives.  We  commenced  the  service,  which  I  intended  should  be  a 
prayer-meeting,  and  were  engaged  in  the  first  prayer,  which  was  being  prco 
sented  by  Tui,  an  old  Samoan  teacher,  when  the  chapel  doors  were  burst 
open,  and  the  house  of  Grod  soon  filled  with  soldiers.  I  heard  the  rustUhg  of 
dieir  arms  and  the  trampling  of  their  feet,  but  did  not  raise  my  head  nor 
open  my  eyes,  and  Tui,  like  a  brave  old  soldier  of  the  Cross,  contiimed  his 
prayer  for  about  thi-ee  or  four  minutes  after  their  entrance.  Our  composure 
appears  to  have  checked  and  repulsed  them,  for  they  instantly  retreated* 
When  I  opened  my  eyes  there  was  not  a  soldier  in  the  chapel ;  but  the  doors 
and  windows  were  well  guarded,  and  we  saw  a  little  forest  of  bayonets  glittering 
in  the  morning  sun.  I  rose,  and  calmly  proceeded  with  the  service,  and  gave  out 
a  hymn,  which  we  sang.  I  then  read  a  portion  of  Grod's  word,  and  concluded 
witii  prayer.  I  was  the  only  pei*son  permitted  to  leave  the  chapel;  all  the 
others  were  kept  prisoners.  As  I  walked  home  I  heard  the  report  of  guns, 
and  the  hallooing  of  natives,  which  plainly  indicated  that  the  latter  had  been 
fiillen  upon  before  they  could  get  away.  In  that  struggle  the  natives  lost  four 
men  and  had  a  number  wounded.  The  French  had  one  killed  and  one  severely 
wounded.  The  natives  ran  inland,  but  were  soon  met  by  one  hundred  and 
twenty  soldiers,  who  had  been  landed  on  the  opposite  side  of  the  island.  Here 
thei'o  was  another  battle,  and  four  more  natives  were  shot  and  many  seriously 
wounded.  The  French  had  a  few  sKghtiy,  and  one  seriously  wounded.  Two 
companies  of  soldiers  pursued  the  natives  inland,  whilst  one  remained  here  to 
complete  the  work  of  devastation.  A  number  re-entered  the  chapel,  bound  tiie 
Samoan  and  Karotongan  teachers,  and  dragged  the  natives  from  the  sacred 
edifice.  One  woman,  having  crept  under  a  seat  for  safety,  was  pierced  in  six 
or  seven  places  with  a  bayonet.  An  old  grey-headed  num,  one  of  my  deacons, 
had  a  bayonet  thrust  in  his  side,  and  a  gash  in  his  forehead;  the  latter  caused 
by.  hift  being  thrown  violently  against  the  taree  to  which  he  was  botmd.  From' 
the  verandah  ^of  my  house  I  saw  the  soldiers  belalbouring  an  <^  nuai' 
abomt  the  head,  a  church-member,  whilst  others  were  fairtteiriTig  him  to 
a  tree.  The  Grovemor  came,  demanded  of  the  teachers  what  they  were 
doing  here,  and  who  sent  them.  One  of  them  answered  that  they  wei^ 
obeying  the  command  of  Christ,  who  had  said,  'Gk>  ye,  tberefbre,  and 
teach  all  nations,'  Sec  Upon  hearing  this  the  Gkyvemer  immediately  seni 
tbem  on  board  and  had- them  placed  in  irons;  the  lUktiTes*  were  also  put  in 
irons^  the  women  being  permitted  to  come  to  my  house  ;bat  the^were  not 
allowed  to  remain  long.    On  the  following  day  our  house  was^  svnxmnded  by 


332  MISSIONARY  MAGAZINE 

soldiers,  and  all  were  taken  on  board,  including  our  servants,  and  we  were  left 
alone.  At  my  earnest  request  a  girl  and  two  boys  were  permitted  to  return ; 
the  former  to  take  care  of  the  children,  the  latter  to  fetch  water.  The  teachers 
and  their  wives  and  families  were  placed  on  board  different  vessels ;  the  former 
being  kept  in  dose  confinement  below.  Whilst  there  the  priest  visited  them, 
and,  finding  their  faith  strong  in  Gk>d,  asked,  sneeringly,  if  God  would  stretch 
out  His  arm  to  loosen  their  irons.  The  island  was  formally  placed  in  a  state 
of  siege  by  the  Governor,  who  informed  me  that  my  residence  here  was  mex^y 
'  tolerated'  as  an  Englishman.  He  charged  me  with,  and  censured  me  for 
having  endeavoured  to  make  this  island  like  an  English  colony.  He  said  that 
everything  was  British,  He  told  me  to  remain  in  my  house,  and  keep  quiet, 
or  the  sentinel  would  shoot  me.  The  village  here  was  then  burnt,  and  a  great 
number  of  cocoa-nut  trees  cut  down.  The  chapel  was  turned  into  a  barrack. 
All  the  seats  were  taken  out  and  used  as  firewood :  their  fire-arms,  luggage,  Ac., 
are  placed  at  one  end  of  the  building ;  a  lai'ge  pew  at  the  other  is  used  as  a 
kitchen.  The  pulpit  is  the  Commandant's  bedroom,  and  a  table  is  fixed  in 
the  centre  of  the  chapel,  aroimd  which  the  officers  meet  to  eat,  drink,  and 
smoke.  Thus  the  house  of  prayer  is  changed;  its  glory  is  departed,  and  it  is 
shunned  by  the  natives,  who  so  recently  assembled  there  in  love  and  peace  to 
listen  to  the  word  of  Gk)d, 

A  FRENCH  FORAY. 

"  On  Monday  the  soldiers  returned  from  a  four-days  tour  in  the  bush,  and 
rested  from  their  work  of  devastation  and  plunder ;  happily,  they  did  not  come 
in  contact  with  any  natives,  who  had  all  fled  to  the  bush,  and  left  their  villages 
to  the  mercy  of  these  marauders.  Yiilages  were  btimt  down,  and  plantations  des- 
troyed ;  the  chapels  were  entered  and  the  pulpits  demolished.  Cocoanut  fibre, 
to  the  value  of  £130,  the  property  of  the  London  Missionary  Society,  whichhad 
been  prepared  and  given  by  the  natives  as  their  yearly  offerings,  was  burnt. 
Having  thus  '  made  an  impression '  upon  the  natives,  and  established  their 
camp  amidst  the  ruins  of  this  village,  the  governor  left,  and  the  Commandant 
proclaimed  peace,  and  sent  for  the  chiefs  to  have  an  interview  with  them. 
They  came,  as  you  may  suppose,  very  much'afraid.  They  were  told  to  return  to 
their  villages,  rebuild  their  houses,  endeavour  to  acquire  the  French  language, 
regard  the  Commandant  as  their  king,  and  live  peacably  with  the  soldiers ! 
"WTien  they  wanted  advice  they  were  not  to  go  to  the  missionary,  but  to  the 
Commandant. 

ALL  PUBLIC  PROTESTANT  WORSHIP  PROHIBITED. 

"They  are  allowed  to  profess  whatever  religion  they  please,  but  they  - 
are  not  permitted  to  assemble  for  worship ;  each  one  is  to  worship  in  his 
own  house,  and  confine  his  religion  to  his  own  heart ;  this,  of  course,  only 
refers  to  Protestants ;  the  priests  and  Roman  Catholics  are  not  only  allowed 
to  continue  as  usual,  but  every  fsu^ility  is  afforded  to  give  success  to  their 
unwearied  efforts  to  proselytize.  The  chief  of  this  village,  who  is  one  of  the 
most  powerftd  on  the  island,  is  stripped  of  his  power,  and  another  installed  in 
his  place,  who  is  a  Roman  Catholic,  and  a  notorious  scoundrel.  The  heathen 
chief  of  this  half  of  the  island,  who  is  nominally  a  Roman  Catholic,  has  collected 
the  underchiefs  together,  aud  told  them  that  his  desire  is  that  they  and  their 
subjects  abandon  *  the  word '  and  become  wiwio  (by  which  they  understand 


FOB  DBCBMBBB,   1864.  333 

Boman  Catholics),  and  if  they  d(ni't  they  will  be  shot ;  he  Bays  that  he  and  tho 
French  are  determined  that  there  shall  be  but  one  religion  on  the  island,  and 
that  most  be  the^  Roman  Catholic. 

"  After  five  days'  oonfinament  the  teachers  w^e  sent  ashore,  and  strictly 
charged  to  have  no  OQnimnm'cat.ion  witb  the  natiTes.  They  are  to  r^nain  at 
this  village  until  the  ''J.  W."  takes  them  away  from  the  island.  Pooi* 
fellows !  their  hands  and  fieet  bear  immistakable  eyidence  of  their  sufferings 
&om  the  irons.    The  doctor  is  now  attending  them. 

"  What  is  to  become  of  these  poor  natives  ?  Night  and  day'messengers  are 
sent  from  different  parts  of  the  island  to  inquire  about  us,  and  implore  us  not 
to  leave  them.  I  advise,  and  endeavour  to  comfort  them,  assuring  them  that 
God  will  not  leave  His  people,  nor  will  He  allow  His  servants  to  be  diiven  from 
their  spheres  of  labour  unless  there  is  a  '  needs  be.'  My  heart  is  here ;  being 
parfectly  at  home  in  the  language,  and  thoroughly  aequainted  with  the  natives, 
we  should  be  exceedingly  sorry  to  leave  the  island,  f  ^  it  would  be  very 
painful  to  remain  here  without  being  permitted  to  prosecute  our  labours  of 
love,  although  our  very  presence  on  the  islaiid  would  tend  to  encourage  and 
stimulate  the  natives.  I  cannot  bear  the  thou^t  of  their  being  left  to  the  evil 
influei^ces  by  which  they  are  now,  ui^iappily,  surrounded. 

*'  The  French  will  doubtless  try  to  justify  their  conduct  here,  but  how,  I  am 
at  a  loss  to  conceive.  They  will  probably  dress  everything  in  a  political  garb ; 
they  would  not  interfere  with  religion,  not  they,  the  French  are  too  honour- 
able for  that !  Yet  why  do  th^  come  here  P  Here  is  an  island  holding  its 
barren  head  a  little  above  the  sea,  and  bearing  a  scanty  vegetation  upon  its 
bosom,  containing  a  population  of  about  seven  thousand  harmless,  and  com- 
paratively enlightened  natives — an  island  whieh  does  not  present  attractions 
safficiently  strong  to  bring  to  its  colonization  persons  of  capital  and  respecta- 
bility— even  within  the  range  of  probability;  indeed,  it  is  remarkable  only  for 
its  uneven,  rugged  surface  and  great  scarcity  oi  water.  Yet,  strange  to  say, 
this  island  has  been  invaded  by  the  French,  the  r^ns  of  its  simple  govern- 
ment seized,  and  the  nation  '  subdued.'  But  why,  we  repeat,  this  unjustifiable 
seizure? 

"  Aug,  22md.-^ThB  *  J.  W.'  nuut  have  passed  on  to  Sydney,  having  probably 
heard  at  Aneiteum  of  the  state  of  affairs  oa  this  island.  Here  is  a  vessel 
going  to  Brromanga,  whence  there  will  be  an  opportuniij  to  Sydney.  I  have 
had  several  opportonities  vid  New  Caledonia,  but  prdSorred  waiting  for  an 
English  vessel. 

"  The '  Day-Spring'  called  here  on.  the  1st  July  (just  a  week  after  this  village 
had  been  burnt  down).  There  were  $even  missionaries  on  board,  including 
Messrs.  Creagh  and  Jones,  but,  to  our  great  surprise  and  regret,  no  coBuau- 
cation  with  the  shore  was  permitted.  I  succeeded,  however,  in  obtaining 
permission  for  Mrs.  Mac£u*lane  to  go  on  board,  and  for  the  ladies  cm  board 
to  come  on  shore.  Mr.  Jones  and  Mr.  Creagh  came  off  in  a  boat,  but  were 
not  allowed  to  land.  The  Commandant  ordered  the  captain  not  to  leare  Mr. 
and  Mrs.  Ella  on  any  island  in  this  group,  so  that  we  were  not  permitted  even 
to  see  our  friends.  Communication  b^^we^i  Mar^  and Lifii  is  stiU  forbidden; 
not  even  a  canoe  is  allowed  to  go  from  one  island  to  the  other.  The  French

hear  it  every  half  hour. 

"  We  have  all  asked  for  permission  to  continue  our  residence  here,  as  we  were 
infoimed  that  this  was  necessary.    I  trust  that  they  will  not  only  allow  us 
to  remain,  but  grant  us  liberty  to  preach  Christ  to  this  people.

lE&UIFIC   HUKEICANE  AT  CALCUTTA. 

The  public  mind  of  all  classes  of  our  coimtrymen  has  been  painfully  excited 
during  the  last  month  by  intelligence  from  India  of  one  of  the  most  fear- 
ful hurricanes  by  which  that  country  has  ever  beai  visited.  We  have 
only  just  received  from  our  missionaries,  the  Revs.  J.  E.  Payhe  and 
Dr.  Mullens,  brief  accounts  of  the  destruction  of  property  and  the  loss  of 
life  from  this  devastating  visitation ;  that  of  Mr.  Payne  applying  to  the 
general  distress  inflicted  on  the  multitudes,  and  that  of  Dr.  Mullens  to  the 
injury  which  has  befallen  the  Missions  connected  with  our  Society. 

LETTER  FROM  REV.   J.  E.   PAYNE. 

"  Bhowanipore,  Calcutta,  20th  October,  1864. 

"  Mt  i>bar  Sir,— On  Monday  the  10th  inst.  I  went  with  Mr.  Kerry  of  the 
Baptist  Mission  into  the  rice  districts,  where  there  have  been  so  many 
Christian  Churches.  We  visited  two  of  our  own  and  three  of  the  Baptist 
Mission  stations ;  to  do  which  we  travelled  about  thirty  miles  over  the  rice- 
fields  in  a  sdlti,  or  hollow  tree,  propelled  by  four  men.  Of  the  five  chapels 
we  saw,  not  one  was  unii^ured.  Of  the  villages  near  the  chapels,  ajid  those 
we  passed  on  our  way,  four- fifths  of  the  houses  had  been  blown  down. 

*'  Amid  all  this  desolation  happily  but  few  lives  had  been  lost;  not  more  than  a 
fourth  of  the  store  of  rice  had  been  injured,  ajid  but  few  cattle  had  perished. 
The  rice  crop,  too,  appeared  not  to  have  been  very  seriously  ii^ured.  But 
heavily  as  the  inhabitants  of  Calcutta  have  suffered,  these  agriculturists  have 
suffered  much  heavier  compared  with  their  means.  Much  as  my  eyes  had 
been  £Euniliarized  with  desolation  in  Calcutta,  my  sympathy  was  moved  deeply 
as  I  saw  those  people,  mostly  houseless,  with  their  tanks  of  drinking  water 
spoiled  by  decaying  vegetation,  and  with  a  great  stench  everywhere  they 
moved. 

"  On  Tuesday  the  11th  I  went  by  i*ail  to  Bigpore,  and  there  I  saw  our 
new  School-house  with  the  roof  seriously  injm'ed  and  with  one  wall  blown  in. 

"  On  Thursday  morning  the  13th  inst.  I  read  a  letter  in  the  **  Englishman*' 
newsp{q>er,  stating  more  fully  what  I  had  heard  frK)m  reports  among  the 
natives,  that  the  storm-wave  had  devasted  the  banks  of  the  Hooghly,  that 
houses  and  food  had  all  been  swept  away,  that  thousands  of  men,  women,  and 
children  had  perished,  and  that  the  survivors  were  starving.  It  also  called 
on  the  inhabitants  to  meet  at  noon  and  devise  some  plan  for  immediate  relief. 


FOK  BECBMBER,    1864.  335 

I  went  to  the  meeting  with  the  intention  to  enter  into  any  scheme  for  convey- 
ing food  and  water  to  the  sufferers.  The  meeting  was  numei'oasly  attended 
by  our  countrymen;  but,  to  the  lasting  dishonour  of  the  Bengalees,  only  four 
of  the  hundreds  of  wealthy  natives  wei*e  present.  A  filthy  devil- dance  in  the 
blood  of  the  sacrifices  to  the  goddess  Durga  will  draw  more  money  from  the 
fint  of  the  rich  idolater  than  the  cries  of  thousands  of  his  starving  fellow- 
countrymen.  Pity  and  glowing  sympathy  was  felt  for  the  sufferers ;  28,000 
rupees  were  guaranteed,  a  committee  was  appointed,  and  means  of  swifb 
relief  were  devised.  One  of  the  few  steamers  that  had  ndden  out  the  tempest  in 
the  river  was  engaged;  1400  maunds  of  rice  and  many  tons  of  water  were  got 
on  board;  a  relieving  party,  consisting  of  five  Europeans  and  about  a  dozen 
natives,  was  organized,  and  the  relief  expedition  was  fairly  clear  of  the  jetty 
by  sunset  on  Friday  evening.  I  had  the  privilege  to  be  a  member  of  the 
expedition. 

"  Our  mission  was  twofold :  to  relieve  want,  and  to  get  infoimation  as  to 
the  localities  and  extent  of  the  suffering.  We  were  away  four  days,  and 
reached  home  last  night. 

"The  head  of  the  expedition,  W.  Smith,  Esq.,  O.E.,  executive  engineer, 
furnished  a  full  account  of  the  people  relieved,  the  dep6ts  formed,  and  the 
general  distress,  which  wOl  be  published  in  a  few  days ;  and  at  his  request  I 
sent  the  following  notes  to  the  Cyclone  Relief  Committee.  As  you  will  hear 
much  of  the  Cyclone,  these  notes  will  give  you  an  idea  of  the  desolation 
wrought  by  the  storm- wave  on  the  banks  of  the  Hooghly. 

"  *  Oolaberia  (on  the  right  bank  of  the  Hooghly,  south  of  Calcutta). — ^The 
storm-wave  ix)6e  ten  feet  above  the  embankment,  and  its  destructive  infiuence 
extended  nearly  two  miles  inland.  The  shops  and  houses,  except  the  d4k 
bungalow  (post-office),  were  destroyed;  about  fifty  government  barges  are  said 
to  be  wrecked  in  the  kh61  (creek) ;  I  saw  ten  at  the  mouth  of  the  khdl,  heaped 
together,  some  with  broken  backs,  one  capsized,  and  one  on  the  top  of  the 
whole,  with  its  bottom  as  high  as  my  head  as  I  stood  on  the  embankment : 
these  barges  are  said  to  be  worth  5000  Rs.  each ;  a  large  number  of  people 
perished.  On  the  island  inclosed  by  the  canal,  the  khdl,  and  the  liver, 
seventy-five  persons  were  lost.  The  survivors  subsisted  for  the  first  two 
days  on  cocoa-nuts.  The  irrigation  agents  got  rice  from  Calcutta  by  steamer, 
amd  it  is  now  selling  in  the  bazar  at  from  2-8  Rs.  to  3  Rs.  per  maund.  Much 
distress  is  said  to  exist  at  Mohesh-rak^,  about  eighty  miles  from  Oolaberia, 
on  the  Damooda. 

"  *  Boroi. — Nine- tenths  of  the  houses  here  ai-c  down.  Most  of  the  people 
can  get  but  one  meal  in  two  days,  of  such  as  they  have. 

***  Diamond  Marbour. — The  wave  came  here  with  great  suddeness,  and 
rushed  furiously  for  six  or  eight  miles  inland.  Towards  Hooghly -point  it  swept 
over  the  mainland,  until  it  re-entered  the  Hooghly.  At  a  mile  inland  I  saw 
by  a  mark  on  a  tree  that  the  wave  had  been  considerably  above  my  head  as 
I  stood  on  a  mound  where  a  village  had  been.  Not  a  native  house  is  left 
standing :  all  have  been  swept  away,  even  to  the  mounds  on  which  they  wore 
built.  The  d£k  bungalow  has  been  gutted ;  the  magistrate's  house  has  been 
severely  injured,  and  some  pucca  (brick)  buildings  lie  in  ruins.  Mr.  Hugh 
Eraser's  salt-godowns  (store-houses)  were  carried  away;  one  of  these  had 


336  inftsioNAitY  loaAziNE 

been  lately  built  with  BtixHig  palm-tree  posts;  still,  scarcely  a  sign  of  mheto 
they  stood  remains.  All  his  men  in  charge— eight  in  n^mba^— perished.  A 
gOYemment  servant^  who  was  at  the  godowns,  was  saved.  The  nine  men  got 
on  the  roof,  and  when  it  was  carried  off  by  the  wave,  it  split  into  two  parts» 
the  <me  drifting  inland— the  goyanment  seryant  on  it  was  saved ;  Uie  other 
drifting  into  the  Hooghly — ^the  eight  men  on  it  were  lost.  The  native  popu- 
lation perished  to  the  extent  of  not  less  than  seventy  per  cent,  near  the 
river,  and  thirty  or  forty  per  c^it.  at  the  distance  of  two  miles  inland.  Of 
<me  family  of  sixteen,  four  survived  by  floating  six  miles  on  the  roof  of  ihrnr 
house.  Of  ninety  inhabitants  of  one  village,  about  thirty  remain  alive. 
These  are  but  examples.  Many  whole  families  have  periahed.  The  Christian 
village  is  said  to  have  had  sixty  or  seventy  inhabitants,  and  but  deven 
survive.  The  bodies  have  been  washed  inland,  and  strew  the  rioe-fields  and 
roads  from  about  a  mile  to  six  or  eight  miles  from  the  river.  Many  of  the 
bodies  inland  have  been  observed  to  have  cloth  and  string  tied  round  them, 
as  though  they  had  be^i  lashed  to  something.  Eighty  per  cent,  of  the 
cattle  have  perished.  The  survivors  are  in  a  pitiable  state  of  destitution ; 
for  da>ys  they  lived  on  half-rotten  rice  scraped  out  of  the  mud,  on  leaves,  the 
roots  of  plantain  trees,  and  anything  else  they  could  find.  On  arriving,  we 
found  a  few  bags  of  rice,  just  received  at  the  thanna  (police-station)  horn. 
Calcutta,  and  the  people  were  just  coming  to  get  some.  That,  and  our 
supply,  will  be  timely  aid.  Among  the  two  hundred  who  received  aid  from 
the  few  bags  at  the  thanna,  on  the  morning  of  our  arrival,  I  was  struck  with 
the  look  of  terror  still  on  the  countenances  of  many.  Sevei*al  strong  men 
were  emaciated,  and  scarcely  able  to  walk ;  the  whole  were  in  a  most  miserable 
state.  The  rice-crop  is  not  wholly  destroyed— from  a  third  to  a  half  may  be 
gathered  if  rain  comes. 

** '  The  steam-tug  <'  Alligator  "  is  high  and  dry  some  distance  below  Diamond 
Harbour.  She  was  towing  the  "  Ali,"  which  was  lost  with  four  hundred  and 
fifty  coolie»  on  board.  Five  hundred  natives  are  cutting  a  channel  from  her 
to  the  river  to  float  her.  They  receive  four  annsfi  a  day,  and  two  seers  of  rice 
each,  by  which  the  people  in  the  neighbourhood  have  food. 

*' '  Kulpee, — The  damage  is  not  so  great  here  as  at  Diamond  Harbour.  A 
house  here  and  there  is  standing.    The  people  are  in  great  need. 

"  *  jRi£M^<l/l«^.— Wednesday  being  the  market*day  at  Teagra-b«:iger-h4t» 
near  RungafuUa,  about  three  hundred  shopkeepers  and  others  were  assembled, 
and  they  had  large  stores  of  rice  and  provisions.  The  storm-wave  swc^ 
them  all  away,  so  that  but  forty  or  fifty  survive,  and  but  a  few  posts  indicate 
where  the  shops  and  bazar  stood.  All  the  boats  were  destroyed.  On  the 
embankment  between  the  H4t  and  Bungafulla  we  passed  scores  of  eajrcases 
of  animals  and  many  human  bodies.  ThQ  stench  wa«  unbearable.  The 
survivors  f^pear  to  be  less  terror-stricken  than  at  Diamond  Harbour;  and 
as  they  have  collected  much  of  the  rotting  grain  from  the  Hit,  they  have  not 
suffered  so  much  from  hunger ;  they  are  scraping  together  a  few  sticks  and 
bits  of  thatch,  and  are  putting  up  slight  coverings  to  diade  them.  Maay 
trees  are  standing.  All  seem  to  have  be^  saved  in  one  of  two  ways — ettliev 
by  clinging  to  a  tree  or  by  drifting  away  on  the  roof  of  a  house.

is  swept  away.  I  saw  some  thirty  people  on  the  shore.  One  man  named 
Monik  Dondo  Pat,  who  was  sayed  by  clinging  to  a  tree,  says  that  all  his 
reUttiyes  haye  been  drifted  away,  namely,  his  wife,  his  two  sons'  widows,  his 
brother's  widow  and  daughter,  his  son-in-law,  his  son-in-law's  father,  and  a 
child.  He  was  on  the  island  when  the  storm-waye  passed  oyer  in  1882,  and 
then  he  lost  his  father,  mother,  eldest  brother,  and  his  wife  and  two  children. 

" '  The  waye  swept  oyer  the  island  about  sixteen  or  seyenteen  feet  deep, 
and  has  cleared  it  of  eyerything  but  a  few  trees  here  and  there.  Houses, 
catUe,  and  many  of  the  inhabitants,  were  drifted  across  the  channel-creek  into 
the  jungle  on  the  mainland.  All  the  rice-crop  seems  to  be  destroyed ;  but 
if  rain  comes,  a  yery  little  may  be  gathered  here  and  there  from  the  southern 
part  of  the  island  :  it  has  been  washed  away  to  the  roots  in  the  northern 
part.  From  eighty  to  ninety  per  cent,  of  the  population  haye  perished;  and  as 
for  the  cattle,  of  which  there  were  about  three  thousand,  hardly  any  remain. 
Of  one  yillage — ^which  may  be  considered  a  sample  of  the  whole — one  family 
of  nine  were  sayed  by  the  roof  of  their  house  settling  on  the  top  of  a  tree, 
and  they  clung  to  it ;  in  another  family  of  six,  fiye  perished ;  in  another  of 
six,  three  perished ;  in  another  of  eight,  two  perished ;  in  another  of  sixteen, 
fifteen  perished ;  and  many  families  of  from  fiye  to  a  dozen  members  were 
wholly  lost.  One  man,  who  is  an  example  of  fifty  or  sixty  others,  floated 
across  the  channel-creek  into  the  jungle,  was  there  a  day  and  night,  with 
twelye  others,  surrounded  by  dead  men  and  animals ;  for  two  days  he  ate 
nothing,  wandering  northward  to  Tengra-berger-hdt,  where  he  got  some  wet 
rice,  and  found  a  boat  going  to  Saugor. 

"  *  A  man  from  Kedgeree  reported  that  three-fourths  of  the  population 
haye  perished,  and  that  the  storm-waye  went  inland  eight  krosh. 

"  *  Mangrorpator  (at  the  mouth  of  the  Eoopnaragon  riyer). — On  the  bank 
of  the  riyer  forty  per  cent,  of  th  e  population  haye  perished ;  at  a  mile  inland 
a  much  less  percentage.    The  wayes  reached  seyeral  krosh. 

**  *  I  would  say  that  seyenty  per  cent,  of  the  population  on  the  left  bank 
of  the  Hooghly  haye  perished,  and  that  at  two  miles  inland  thirty  to  forty 
per  cent.  This  will  probably  be  correct  from  Diamond  Harbour  southward. 
There  must  be  an  alarming  malaria  inland,  as  the  bodies  of  men  and  animals 
all  drifted  from  the  riyer,  and  when  the  people  are  asked  to  show  the  bodies, 
they  uniformly  point  inland  and  say,  "  They  are  there." ' 

"  Time  will  not  x>ermit  me  to  giye  you  more  details.  My  mind  and  note- 
book are  ftOl  of  the  most  distressing  incidents ;  but  I  haye  said  enough  to 
show  you  that  no  common  calamity  has  behdlen  the  many  thousands  on  both 
banks  of  the  Riyer  Hooghly.  You  will  understand  that  about  a  hundred 
miles  of  country  has  been  desolated  by  the  cyclone,  and  that  some  little  of 
the  sea-coast  and  the  banks  of  the  Riyer  Hooghly  only  haye  been  swept  by 
the  storm-waye.  It  will  be  cheering  to  you,  and  to  all  who  will  sympathize 
with  the  sufferers  here,  to  know  that  most  generous  donations  haye  been 
placed  in  the  hands  of  the  Cyclone  Relief  Oommittee.  Vigorous  efforts  are 
being  made  to  feed  the  starying.  Another  steamer  is  being  stored  with  rice, 
and  I  expect  to  start  within  two  days  in  the  second  relieying  party  down  the 
riyer.  Within  a  fortnight  the  wants  of  the  hungiy  will  be  met ;  but  it  is  im- 
possible  to  guess  what  will  be  the  consequences  of  the  malaria,  and  the  misery

"  Bhowanipore,  Calcutta,  October  20tb,  1864. 

"  MY  VBBY  DBAB  Fbibitd, — Ton  will  have  beard  from  the  public  news- 
papers  that  Lower  Bengal  has  been  yisited  by  a  fririons  hurricane,  which  has 
inflicted  on  the  country  miheard-of  damage  and  produced  indescribable 
snfTering. 

"On  some  jwints  yon  will  receive  by  the  present  mail  infbmmtion  more 
exact  and  complete  than  any  which  has  been  forwarded  to  England.  We 
have  heard  in  a  general  way  of  the  ravages  of  the  hurricane  in  the  lower 
reeKjhes  of  the  River  Hoogly,  and  reports  were  circnlated  that  a  large 
nnmber  of  lives  were  lost.  With  a  view  to  snpply  the  wants  of  the  snrviving 
and  starving  villagers  down  the  river,  a  General  Gydone  Fnnd  wa»  com- 
menced, a  committee  appointed,  and  a  steams  despatched  laden  wit^  food, 
cooking  vessels,  medicines,  and  the  like^  Onr  colleagne.  Mr.  Payne,  with 
two  of  onr  converts,  joined  the  expedition ;  and  yesterday,  after  an  absence 
of  four  days,  Mr.  Payne  retnmed;  His  coUeagnes  and  he  have  obtained 
most  interesting  information,  though  of  a  most  harrowing  kmd ;  and  I  have 
asked  him  to  send  yon  an  aecomit  of  his  jonmey. 

"  Yon  will  remember  the  hurricane  we  had  here  in  1883,  the  storm -wave  of 
which  rolled  over  all  the  south  of  Bengal,  destroyed  all  the  young  rice,  swept 
away  hundreds  of  villages,  and  drowned,  it  was  said,  twenty  thousand 
people.  You  will  remember,  too,  how  Mt.  Laoroix  and  Mk*.  Gk>gerly,  supplied 
with  a  large  quantity  of  rice,  clothes,  Ac,  went  in  a  pinnace  down  the  river 
to  seek  out  and  supply  the  stairing  population.  It  now  appears,  from  those 
who  have  just  returned  from  a  snnilar  expedition,  that,  though  moving  along 
a  smaller  line  of  country,  the  storm-wave  of  our  present  hurricane  was  faar 
higher  than  that  of  1883,  and  much  more  violent  in  its  effects.  The  very 
centre  of  the  wave  on  the  5th  of  December  passed  up  the  mouth  of  the 
Hooghly :  it  passed  ^itirely  over  the  Island  of  Saugor,  and  washed  away  all 
its  trees  and  all  its  people.  It  overtopped  all  the  embankments  on  both  sides 
the  river,  and  rushed  inland.  At  Diamond  Harbour  it  flowed  inland  for 
e^ht  miles,  and  here  the  loss  of  lif^  is  greatest.  Not  less  than  three 
thousand  people,  with  ^e  or  six  thousand '  fkrm  bullocks,  nrast  have  been 
drowned.  MJir.  Payne  conversed  withr  several  men  who  had'  been  saved. 
They  floated  on  the  tops  of  tiieir  cottages  for  miles^  or  cMmbed  into  trees^or 
swam,  or  drifted^  until  th^.  rewehed  some  refrige.  Wtarv  saw  their  wives, 
children,  brothers,  and  otiier  relattves^  drown  at  ^iS^^  SaS^Sfe  Samgor

Island  he  talked  with  a  man  who  lost  his  fS&ther  and  mother  and  many  other 
relatives  in  the  storm  of  1888 ;  now  he  Has  lost  almost  every  one  else,  and 
has  just  saved  himself  alive.  The  relief  of  all  tli6M  suffiereifi,  whoM  food  and 
property  of  every  kind  were  destroyed^  has  been  proiapt  and.  effinient^.aiid  it 
is  hoped  that  thousands  of  lives  will  thereby  be  saved. 

"  Our  Mission  property  in  this  part  of  Beoigal  has  not  suffered  so  much  aa 
we  might  have  expected,  yet  quite  enough  to  require  an  appeal  to  you  for 
help.  There  will  be,  I  fear,  some  difficulty  in  getting  money  for  special 
repairs,  and  even  for  the  ordinary  income  of  our  local  Auxiliary,  from  our 
usual  friends,  owing  to  the  large  efR>rt8  being  made  by  the  community  to 
supply  the  physical  wants  of  the  great  native  communities  that  have  suffered 
immense  loss  fy?om  this  fearful  storm.  And  it  is,  tiierefore,  only  natural  that 
we  should  turn  to  you,  should  our  need  prove  large  and  preeeing.  The 
fbUowing  is  an  outline  of  our  losa : — 

"  In  Calcutta,  Union  Chapel  and  the  parsonage  suffered  little.  At  Bhow* 
anipore  too,  the  Institution  and  New  Mission  House  have  conle  off  pretty 
well.  Mr.  Johnson's  garden,  however,  lost  all  its  fine  trees  and  was  lefib  a 
wreck.  The  damage  done  to  my  own  house  and  garden  will  be  repaired  by 
the  native  owner.  The  Native  Church  was  very  much  injured;  much  of  the 
thatch  waj9  blown  away,  the  pillars  were  broken,  the  walls  damaged,  and  the 
floor  doltiged  with  water.  The  Bazar  Chapels  at  Bhowonipore  and  in  Cal« 
cutta  have  been  partially  injured*  and  the  r^aira  will  cost  but  a  small  ania< 
Our  two  School-houses  at  B^jpore  and  Behala  were  nouoh  exposed  .and  wema 
blown  down.  The  former  was  a  new  building,  and,  as  the  mateaial»are  siUl 
here  to  a  large  extent,  £10  may  restore  it»  but  the  school  at  Behala  will  oosi 
three  times  that  sum.  Our  Zenana  Girls'  Sehools  have  suffered  also,  but  not 
greatly. 

**  The  greatest  damage  has  been  done  among,  our  viUa^  ohnrohAB.  Owr 
new  station  of  Kaorapukur  was  almost  destroyed.  Out  of  sixty  sIm^s  aad 
houses  in  the  village  only  two  were  left  standing.  The  native  ndsskmary'a

340  MISSIONARY  MAGAZINE 

DEATH  OF  MRS.  WHITMEE. 

In  the  early  part  of  last  year  four  devoted  young  missionaries,  Messrs.  Mllls, 
Whithee,  King,  and  Ibvine,  with  their  respective  wives,  accompanied  by  Dr. 
TuENEE  sailed  for  their  appointed  spheres  of  labour  in  the  Pacific.  Within 
that  brief  space  we  have  already  been  called  upon  to  report  the  death  of  two  of 
their  number,  namely,  Mr.  Ievine,  at  Sydney,  on  the  outward  voyage,  and 
Mr.  Mills,  cut  off  within  a  few  months  after  he  had  settled  among  the  people 
of  his  charge.  It  is  now  our  painM  duty  to  announce  that  Mrs.  Whitmee, 
the  beloved  wife  of  the  Rev.  S.  J.  "Whitmee,  and  another  of  this  youUiftil 
band,  has  since  been  numbered  with  the  dead.  Under  these  sad  and  in- 
scrutable visitations  we  can  but  hope  that  God  in  His  abundant  mercy  may 
sustain  and  comfort  the  hearts  of  sorrowing  survivors,  and  raise  up  other 
instruments  to  carry  on  the  great  work  in  progress  for  the  evangelization  of 
the  heathen. 

The  particulars  of  Mrs.  Whitmee' s  last  illness  and  death  are  given  by  her 
afflicted  husband,  in  a  letter  dated  Malua,  XJpolu,  Samoa,  August  2nd,  1864. 

"  My  deae  De.  TiDifAN, — I  have  very  sorrowful  tidings  to  communicate. 
This,  my  second  letter  to  you  from  Samoa,  is  to  inform  you  of  the  death  of 
my  dear  wife.  She  died  on  Saturday,  July  16th,  of  remittent  fever,  similar 
to  that  which  carried  off  our  dear  brother  Mills  two  months  before.  Her 
illness  lasted  only  ten  days;  and,  although  she  seemed  conscious  that  it 
would  terminate  fatally,  for  the  last  five  days  we  had  great  hopes  of  her 
recovery  up  to  within  a  few  hours  of  her  death.  How  mysterious  to  us  are 
the  ways  of  God !  We  are  compelled  sometimes  to  be  dumb  and  open  not 
our  mouths,  because  we  know  that  it  is  the  hand  of  God.  This  is  my  con- 
dition now.  The  sorest  of  trials  has  come  upon  me,  and  I  can  only  just  bow 
my  head  and  acknowledge  it  to  be  the  hand  of  God.  I  cannot  see  how,  but 
yet  I  know  that  this  is  one  of  the  *  all  things '  which  work  together  for  good. 
Seven  months  the  very  day  that  my  dear  wife  died  we  landed  at  Leone.  We 
then  hoped  for  many  years  of  usefulness  in  that  place;  but  how  are  those 
hopes  blighted !  Only  one  month  before  that  we  thought  it  was  promising 
spring-time  with  us.  Our  health  was  good.  We  were  getting  accustomed  to 
climate  and  people,  and  the  people  were  getting  accustomed  to  us,  and  show- 
ing that  their  love  to  us  was  daily  increasing.  The  chief  difficulties  in  the 
language  were  rapidly  disappearing,  and  we  were  getting  into  Ml  work. 
Mrs.  Whitmee  had  a  class  of  nearly  thirty  women  every  Sabbath,  besides  three 
other  classes  during  the  week.  We  had  just  accepted  five  young  men  with 
their  wives  as  students  to  prepare  for  teachers  in  our  villages,  and  my  dear 
wife  was  looking  forward  with  great  pleasure  to  the  female  department  as  her 
especial  work.  But  in  the  midst  of  all  this  her  Master  said,  "  It  is  enough," 
and  took  her  from  her  work  to  her  rest.  Never  was  an  event  more  mysterious. 
Not  only  has  it  riven  my  heart,  but,  in  conjunction  with  the  death  of  our 
dear  brother  Mills,  it  has  cast  a  gloom  over  the  whole  Mission.  Without 
affirming  too  much,  I  may  say  that  all  in  our  Mission  were  looking  with  great 
hope  towards  my  dear  departed  wife.    Her  deep  piety,  quiet  winning  manner, 


FOR   DECEMBEB^    1864.  341 

aad  thorough  missionary  spirit,  made  her  so  fit  for  the  work  to  which  she 
had  given  herself.  Already  she  had  made  her  power  felt,  and,  although  only 
eight  months  in  Samoa,  she  will  not  soon  be  forgotten.  She  was  loved  by  all 
who  knew  her,  and  those  who  knew  her  best  loved  her  most. 

"  Her  death  was  triumphant.  She  rgoiced  in  Jesus  as  her  Saviour ;  and 
although  preferring  to  remain  and  work  for  Him,  if  that  were  His  wiU,  it  was 
very  evident  that  her  preference  arose  from  love  to  the  work  and  her  desire  to 
continue  to  help  me.  For  hertelfshe  wished  to  go  cmd  be  with  Jems^  which  she 
knew  was  far  better.  Her  continual  cry  was, '  Not  my  will,  but  Thine.'  On 
the  Tuesday  before  her  death  I  asked  her  if  she  regretted  coming  here,  so  isx 
from  home  and  friends,  to  labour  only  for  a  few  months.  She  replied  with 
animation,  *  Oh,  no ;  oh,  dear  no !  I  don't  regret  it.  I  doiCt  regret  it  for  one 
moment.  I  only  regret  that  I  have  been  able  to  do  so  little.  Poor  Samoa  P  On 
Wednesday,  in  reply  to  a  question  if  Jesus  loved  her,  she  said,  *  Why^  He  died 
for  me,*  She  expressed  a  calm  confidence  in  Jesus  as  her  Saviour.  But  on 
Thursday  a.m.,  for  about  half-an-hour,  she  was  in  darkness.  She  could  not 
find  Jesus,  and  Satan  was  permitted  to  tempt  her  by  telling  her  she  had  not 
loved  Him  enough,  and  He  would  not  love  her.  But  this  gave  way  to  the 
most  triumphant  realization  of  Jesus'  love  to  her  and  his  presence  with  her. 
Never  shall  I  forget  her  manner  and  appearance  and  language  when  the  cloud 
was  removed.  Language  could  not  express  the  feelings  of  her  heart.  From 
that  time  to  her  death  she  enjoyed  a  season  of  uninterrupted  eigoyment  of 
her  Saviour's  presence,  and  died  in  the  fall  assurance  of  faith.  It  seemed  as 
if  Jesus  manifested  Himself  in  such  glory  to  her  spirit,  that  it  was  enticed 
from  its  poor  house  of  clay  to  be  for  ever  with  Him.  Her  last  word  was 
uttered  in  reply  to  the  question  if  she  was  happy,  and  was  a  most  positive 
*  Yes.''  When  utterance  failed  she  still  revealed  her  joy  and  confidence  to  us 
by  the  fond  pressure  of  the  hand.  Although  this  is  a  blow  which  has  almost 
broken  my  heart,  yet  I  have  much  comfort  in  the  fiill  assurance  that  my  dear 
wife,  and  my  dear  babe  (who  preceded  his  mother  by  only  five  months)  are 
both  safe  at  home.  This  comforts  me.  Although  they  will  not  return  to  me, 
I  shall  go  to  them.  My  dear  wife  completed  her  twenty-fifth  year  the  day  we 
landed  at  Leone. 

"  A  sudden  opportunity  of  sending  to  Sydney  has  occurred  to-day,  and  no 
time  is  left  to  say  more.  I  will  send  particulars  respecting  my  own  move- 
I       ments  by  the  next  vessel 

I  "  Believe  me  ever  to  remain,  my  dear  Dr.  Tidman, 

I  "  Tours  most  faithfully,

BHATH  OF  THE  KEY.  AAEON  BIIZACOTT. 

Although  tlie  honoured  subject  of  this  notice  did  not  actually  spend  his  last 
days  OQ  heathen  gr9und,  no  man  had  a  stronger  daim  to  the  titb  of  a  faithfnlj 
JabariotiSy  and  suooessM  mifisionajry  than  Aaron  Buzaoott 

So  £Bur  back  as  the  year  18279  ^^^  fiifiiid,  aooomponied  by  Mrs.  B^  left  ids 
Btttiye  country  to  join  tiie  Society's  Misoons  m  liie  Pacific,  and  in  the  b^g^B^- 
ning  of  ite  following  year  he  took  up  his  residence  at  ATarcta,  on  fke  laiaDd 
of  Rarotonga,  Hervey  group,  where  he  laboured  continuously  until  the  close 
6f  1846,  when,  for  the  benefit  of  their  health,  Mr.  and  Mrs.  B.  repaired  to 
England.  During  this  visit,  our  fiiend  revised  and  passed  through  the  press 
the  entire  Barotongan  Scriptures.  Betuming  to  the  Inland  in  the  spring  of 
1852,  he  resumed  his  beloved  work  at  Barotonga,  which,  besides  the  super- 
intendence 'of  a  large  church  and  congiegatioiny  also  comprised  the  onerous 
charge  of  the  Institution  ior  training  native  youths  as  evaiigelists  to  the 
heathen.  It  is  calculated  that,  fi?om  the  InstitutiQii  whidi  Mr.  B.  was  so 
instrmnental  in  fcnndng,  not  fewer  than  180  trained  native  4g«itB  have  gone 
iforth-to  pubHdi  the  glad  tidings  of  a  Sairiour^  love  amoi^  the  nei|^boariiig 
islands. 

Our  dear  brother's  health,  however,  suffered  so  severely  firom  tiie  eSeets  of 
tiie  climate,  aggravated  by  incessant  labour,  that  he  was  compelled,  in 
February,  1858,  to  retire  to  Sydney.  In  July,  1860,  he  was  appointed  the 
Society's  Agent  in  the  Australian  colonies,  and  in  the  early  part  of  1 862 
he  undertook,  pro  tern.,  the  general  duties  of  the  Society's  agency  at 
Sydney,  in  connection  with  its  missions  in  the  Islands.  To  these  various 
labouiB  our  beloved  brother  continued,  until  arrested  by  the  hand  of  death, 
to  devote  himself,  with  the  same  zeal  and  energy  by  whidi  he  had  homi 
distingmdied  when  toiling  in  the  high  places  o£  the  missionary  field,  Ifr. 
B.,  wbese  dying  experience  and  iestimony  were  in  entire  harmony  wi&  his 
consistent,  holy,  and  use^l  life,  sweetly  fell  asleep  in  Jesos  on  ihe  I90i 
September  last. 

Our  fiiend  has  left  to  deplore  his  irreparable  loss  his  excellent  widow,  and 
a  son  and  daughter,  of  whom  the  former,  the  Bev.  A.  Buzacott,  B.A.,  is 
minister  of  the  Independent  Church  and  Congregation  at  Battle  Bridge, 
London,  and  the  latter  the  wife  of  the  Bev.  S.  M.  Creagh,  of  the  Society's 
Mission  on  the  Isbnd  of  Mar^,  Loyalty  Group. 

Numerous  communications  have  been  received  from  Christian  fiiends  at 
Sydney  respecting  the  last  hours  of  Mr.  Buzacott,  chiefly  addressed  to  his  son, 
and  we  doubt  not  that,  in  famishing  extracts  fi^m  these,  we  shall  gratify  our 
readers.     The  following  is  from  the  attached  nephew  of  the  deceased : — 

''  The  whole  of  Saturday  night  I  sat  up  with  him,  and  he  passed  a  tolerably 
comfortable  night.  He  remained  quiet,  and  was  doubtless  holding  communion 
with  heaven.    In  the  middle  of  the  night  I  said  i^'^hS^  '  Who  can  separate

pained,  and  adced  him,  \mi  he  always  relied  t^iat  he  was  easy  and  oomfort- 
able.  Aunt  and  Mrs.  Irvine  had  retired,  hot  were  unable  to  sleep,  and  came 
baoik  to  us  before  one  o'olock.  I  then  retired,  bat  in  less  than  an  hour  was 
called  op  again.  Unde  waa  evidently  mear  death .  About  fbor  o'clock  we  aent 
for  Charles  and  Mr.  JohBson,  and  called  Mr.  Rojde,  and  soon  all  were  stand- 
m^  at  his  bedside.  Por  three  hours  we  anxioaidy  watched  him,  whilst  his  aoal 
was  quitting  its  tenement  of  olay.  He  looked  ▼ery  calm  and  peacefcd. 
He  was  conscious  to  the  last  moment.  My  aimt  was  otamding  wi^i  her 
aran  under  his  head,  supporting  him  till  he  closed  his  eyes,  fflie  adrad 
him, '  Do  you  know  me  ?'  '  Indeed  I  do,'  he  replied.  Soon  after  he  saoi, 
'  Christ  is  all  in  all,'  which  were  his  last  words.  As  the  dodc  was  strikiiig 
seven  his  spirit  took  its  fl^t  to  another  and  a  better  world.  There  was 
no  struggle — no  pain.  He  quietly  breathed  his  soul  away,  and  there  he 
lay,  calm  and  peaceful,  having  &llen  asfeep. 

The  £ev.  Thomas  Johnson,  the  esteemed  minister  of  t^e  ChzistiBn  Chuidby 
witii  which  Mr.  Buzacott  had  been  associated,  as  meraher  and  deacon,  during 
his  residence  in  Sydney,  writes  as  Allows : — 

"  Surrey  Hills,  Sydney. 
"Sept.  22nd,  1864. 
«  Bev.  A.  Buzacott,  B  A. 

"  My  deab  Sib, — Though  unknown  to  you,  except  as  you  may  have  heard 
of  me  through  your  Mends,  yet  I  knew  and  loved  your  honoured  father,  and 
that  must  be  my  apology  for  writing  to  you  at  this  time.  It  is  remarkahle, 
how  near  we  may  be  to  some  great  grief,  some  crushing  calamity,  and  yet 
be  €dl  tmconscious  of  its  presenee.  To  you  it  will  be  ineocpressibly  sad  to 
learn  that  your  honoured  and  much-loved  father  has  passed  from  our  midst. 
He  exchanged  earth  for  heaven  at  7  a.m.  on  the  19tiL  inst.  He  had  long  been 
waiting  for  his  Master's  call;  therefore  death  did  not  take  him  by  surprise. 
'  There  is  rest  for  the  weary,'  and  after  a  long  and  toilsome  life  he  ceased 
£rom  his  labours  and  has  '  entered  into  the  joy  of  his  Lord.'  Other  friends 
will  probably  give  you  the  details  of  his  short  illness.  All  I  need  say,  there- 
fore, is  that  his  death  became  his  life.  It  was  a  fitting  dose  to  his  use&il 
career.  He  calmly  and  quietly  *  fell  asleep '  in  Jesus,  without  a  doubt  or  a 
fear,  in  simple  reliance  upon  the  atonement,  and  with  assured  hope  in  the 
'  mercy  promised  to  our  fathers.' 

**  Yesterday,  devout  men  carried  him  to  the  grave,  but  all  felt  it  would  be 
out  of  place  to  make  lamentation  over  him.  Twenty -four  ministers  and  mis- 
sionaries of  different  denominations,  and  a  large  concourse  of  people,  attended 
his  funeral.  Tour  mother,  who  feels  the  trial  greatly,  is  yet  calm  and  happy. 
She  is  comforted  concerning  him,  and  would  not  have  him  back  again  if  she 
could.  He  will  not  return  to  her;  but  she,  ere  long,  will  go  to  him.  For 
more  than  thirty  years  I  have  cherished  a  great  respect  for  him,  loving  him 
for  his  work's  sake ;  but  I  account  it  one  of  the  greatest  felicities  of  my  life 
that  I  have  been  brought  into  such  close  connection  with  him.    Ever  since 


344  MISSIONAKY  MAGAZINE 

we  met,  he  has  been  my  kind  and  generous,  my  firm  and  fiost  friend.  He  was 
more  to  me  than  a  brother;  alas,  my  father,  he  is  gone!  He  was  to  me  a 
wise  and  judicious  adviser,  too  prudent  to  offend,  too  gentle  to  wound,  too 
amiable  not  to  love.  I  have  known  him  very  intimately  for  the  last  three 
years.  I  have  seen  him  in  public  and  in  private,  at  home  and  from  home, 
but  I  never  saw  him  do  a  thing  or  heard  him  utter  a  word  which  would  have 
been  out  of  place  when  said  or  done  the  last  hour  of  his  life,  or  when  going 
to  the  judgment-seat  of  God.  I  cannot  but  congratulate  you,  my  dear  sir,  on 
being  the  son  of  such  a  father.  I  can  bear  my  testimony  to  the  affectionate 
interest  he  ever  felt  in  your  behalf,  and  the  many  and  earnest  prayers  he  ad- 
dressed to  heaven  for  your  success  and  comfort  in  your  work.  No  name  is 
more  revered,  and  no  man  that  I  know  in  these  colonies  has  been  more  loved 
and  respected  than  Aaron  Buzacott.  Before  he  died,  he  said :  '  I  have  two 
beloved  ones,  a  son  and  a  daughter  too ;  pray  for  them.'  We  saw  him  enter 
the  cloud,  we  saw  the  great  darkness  gradually  thickening  upon  him ;  but  the 
cloud  is  dispersed,  the  darkness  has  passed  away.  He  is  now,  I  doubt  not,  in 
the  clear  and  cloudless  light  of  heaven.  '  Absent  from  the  flesh,  he  is  present 
.  with  the  Lord.'  *  For  him  to  live  was  Christ,'  therefore,  *  to  die  was  gain." 
As  your  father's  pastor  and  friend  I  cannot  wish  for  you,  his  son,  a  more 
honoured  or  useful  career,  or  a  more  satisfactory  close  than  was  his.  *  Be  ye 
followers  of  them  who,  through  fiEiith  and  patience,  inherit  the  promises.' 

"  I  am,  my  dear  Sir, 

"  Very  faithfully  yours, 
(Signed)  "  Thomas  Johnson." 

The  following  notice  of  the  funeral  of  our  lamented  brother  is  supplied  in 
a  communication  addressed  to  Dr.  Tidman  by  the  Eev.  John  Graham  : — 

"  22fM?  Sept. — Mr.  Buzacott's  funeral  yesterday  was  a  marvellous  exhibition 
of  respect  and  love.  It  was  deeply  touching  to  see  old  Mr.  Darling,  his  friend 
and  the  companion  of  WiUiams,  and  also  old  Brothers  Pitman  and  Royle, 
taking  a  last  look  at  the  mortal  remains  of  their  fellow-labourer.  Mr.  Royle 
delivered  an  affecting  address  in  the  Rev.  T.  Johnson's  church,  in  which 
Mr.  Buzacott  had  lately  been  a  deacon.  I  addressed  some  three  hundred 
persons  around  the  grave,  on  Phil.  i.  21.  Although  it  was  the  day  before  the 
mail  leaves  for  England,  there  was  a  great  concourse,  composed  of  merchants, 
lawyers,  doctors,  ministers,  and  at  one  point  I  counted  twenty-one  carriages 
within  view.  At  half-past  seven  o'clock,  in  my  own  church,  I  continued  my 
address  on  the  same  text,  to  at  least  seven  hundred  people.  We  all  loved 
dear,  venerable  Aaron  Buzacott."

POLYISTESIA. 


DESPOTIC   AKD    0PPBE8SIVE    £XEECIS£    OP   FRENCH    AUTHOBITY   IN    THE  ISLAUD 
OF   IIFU,   LOYALTY   GEOXTP. 

The  latest  intelligence  from  Australia  fully  confirms  the  narratiTC  given  in 
our  last  number,  by  the  Eev.  S.  Macfaelane,  of  the  outrageous  measures 
inflicted  by  the  Governor  of  New  Caledonia  on  the  Protestant  m  issionaries 
and  the  defenceless  Native  Christians  of  the  Island  of  Lifu. 

These  proceedings,  it  must  be  specially  remarked,  apply  only  to  those 
Natives  who  had  received  the  knowledge  of  the  Gospel  from  the  English 
Protestant  Missionaries,  who  had  made  this  uninviting  island  the  scene  of 
their  self-denying  labours.  On  the  contrary,  the  Prench  Catholic  Mis- 
sionaries, and  their  adherents,  were  left  free  in  the  exercise  of  their  own 
views  and  practices,  and  were,  in  fact,  parties  in  the  violence  and  oppression 
exercised  on  their  Protestant  countrymen. 

This  intolerant  exercise  of  military  authority  includes  the  entire  prohi- 
bition of  aU  public  instruction  and  Christian  worship  in  the  several  native 
chapels  throughout  the  Island,  in  which  an  aggregate  of  not  less  than  four 
thousand  people  were  accustomed  to  assemble ;  the  suppression  of  the 
schools,  in  which  two  thousand  children  were  instructed ;  and  the  authori- 
tative discontinuance  of  the  free-will  offerings  of  the  people  in  the  service  of 
religion.  English  missionaries  from  other  islands,  it  will  also  be  remembered, 
were  prevented  from  even  landing  on  Lifu;  and  the  native  Christian  Evangelists 
— Samoans  and  Earotongans — were  put  in  chains,  conveyed  as  prisoners  to  a 
Prench  man-of-war,  and  sentenced  to  early  banishment  from  the  Island. 

The  pretext  for  these  unrighteous  and  cruel  deeds  was  the  weakest 
and  shallowest  that  invention  could  supply. 

The  English  missionaries  were  accused  of  denationalizing  the  native  Chris- 
'tians  by  teaching  them  the  English  rather  than  the  Prench  language ;  whereas 
there  was,  probably,  not  a  single  native  who  understood  a  word  of  English, 

vol.  xzix. — 1866.  B 


2  MISSIONABT  MAGAZCCE 

the  missionaries  haying  learnt  the  language  of  the  people  in  order  to  give 
them  instruction  in  the  only  way  in  which  it  was  practicable. 

The  representation  that  the  missionaries  had  encouraged  the  islanders  to 
resist  the  French  authority  was  equally  imfounded  and  ideal,  as  the 
Governor  of  New  Caledonia  had  never  daimed  any  authority  in  lifu  up  to 
the  period  when  these  hostile  proceedings  were  carried  out  in  practice. 

"We  have,  however,  strong  reasons  for  concluding  that  these  arbitrary 
measures  originated  with  M.  Guillain,  the  Governor  of  JS'ew  Caledonia, 
without  any  authority  from  Paris ;  and  we  cherish  the  sanguine  hope  that 
the  Emperor  and  the  Government  of  France  wiU  not  sanction  and  perpetuate 
such  monstrous  opposition  to  the  social  improvement  and  religious  freedom 
of  the  native  population. 

"We  feel  assured  also  that  her  Majesty's  Government  have  not  been 
indifferent  to  the  wrongs  thus  perpetrated  upon  our  countrymen,  who  have 
been  silenced  and  threatened  with  expulsion  from  the  island,  should  they 
continue  to  exercise  their  mission  of  mercy  to  the  people  whom  they  have 
rescued  from  the  degradaticm  of  Paganism  and  the  horrors  of  savage  life. 

The  public  press  of  our  country,  led  by  tiie  powerM  example  of  the  "Times," 
has  spoken  in  relation  to  this  outrage  in  language  of  remonstrance  and 
condemnation  to  the  oppressor  not  to  be  misunderstood,  and  no  less  in  terms 
of  justice  and  commendation  of  the  benefits  resulting  from  missionary  labour. 

It  is  important  to  observe,  as  illustrating  the  cruelty  and  injustice  of  the 
French  proceedings  in  lafu : — 

1.  That  the  Christian  teachers,  native  and  European,  employed  by  the 
London  Missionary  Society  in  ihe  Loyalty  Group,  commenced  their  labours  at 
least  ten  years  hefare  the  assumption  of  French  authority  in  new  Caledonia. 

2.  That  at  the  commencement  of  their  labours  the  native  population  were 
in  the  lowest  state  of  degradation  and  barbarism,  and  that  their  present  social 
and  religious  improvement  has  been  effected  by  the  blessing  of  God  upon  the 
labours  of  the  missionaries. 

3.  That  all  acts  of  trade  and  commerce  on  the  part  of  thS  missionaries  are 
strictly  prohibited  by  the  Society  they  serve,  and  cannot,  therefore,  in  any 
degree  interfere  with  ttie  colonial  interests  of  France. 

And  4.  That  the  arbitrary  proceedings  of  the  Governor  of  Kew  Caledonia 
are  totally  at  variance  with  the  principles  of  civil  and  religious  freedom  esta- 
blished in  France  and  universally  carried  out  in  all  the  colonies  of  Britain.

MADAGASCAE. 

We  have  again  to  record  gratifying  evidence  of  the  Divine  favour  to  the 
several  departments  of  the  Mission,  of  Tvhich  the  extracts  given  helow  from 
the  letters  of  the  Rev.  William  Ellis  and  the  Rev.  R.  G.  Hartley  afford 
illustrations. 

Amidst  the  evident  progress  and  advancing  strength  of  Christianity  we  are 
glad  to  state  that  the  Queen  and  her  Government,  ^though  patrons  of 
heathenism,  yet  nevertheless  honourably  uphold  the  rights  and  privil^;es  of 
the  native  Christians.  We  do  not  Tvish  to  intimate  that  the  principles  of 
civil  and  religious  liberty  are  fully  understood  by  the  Government  or  enjoyed 
by  the  Christians  in  their  largest  extent ;  but  on  the  whole  the  Churches 
enjoy  rest,  and,  **  walking  in  the  fear  of  the  Lord  and  in  the  comfort  of  the 
Holy  Ghost,"  are  multiplied. 

We  are  glad  to  learn  that  Mr.  Pakei^ham,  the  English  Consul,  has  returned 
to  the  capital ;  and  we  trust  that  the  interruption  which  continues  to  exist 
in  the  commercial  and  friendly  intercourse  between  Prance  and  Madagascar 
may  be  shortly  a(yusted,  inasmuch  as  these  powerftd  alliances  with  England 
and  France  will  greatly  tend  to  strengthen  the  native  Government,  and  to 
perpetuate  the  enlightened  and  liberal  principles  which  it  is  pledged  to 
maintain.

the  progressive  triumphs  of  the  Gospel  in  this  part  of  Madagascar.  No 
exciting  and  extensive  awakening  on  the  subject  of  religion  takes  place — 
nothing  like  what  are  deemed  revivals  in  other  countries ;  but  there  has  long 
been  a  steady,  quiet,  and  slightly  fluctuating  increase  of  believers  to  my  own 
Church  and  Congregation,  as  well  as  to  others  with  which  lam  best  acquainted. 
Besides  this,  there  has  been  peculiarly  encouraging  intelligence  of  the  work 
of  the  Divine  Spirit  at  Pianarantsoa,  in  the  South,  and  the  extreme  limits  of 
Imerina,  in  the  We^t,  as  well  as  evidence  of  patience  and  cheerful  confidence 
among  the  believers  at  Ambohimanga,  in  the  North. 

"  The  Church  at  Ambatonakanga  numbered  ninety  communicants  yrhen  I 
joined  it  in  1862.  About  forty  left  us  soon  afterwards,  to  form  the  nucleus 
of  the  Chiu'ch  at  Ankadibevava.  A  few  have  also  since  left  to  join  the  recently 
formed  Church  at  Ampamarinana ;  but  the  accession  of  thirteen,  whom  we 
expect  to  receive  to  our  fellowship  to-morrow,  will  make  the  present  number 
of  our  communicants  283.  Among  eighteen  to  whom  I  administered  the 
ordinance  of  baptism  last  Lord's-day,  was  one  who  had  recently  arrived  from 
Fianarantsoa,  in  the  South,  under  circumstances  of  great  interest  in  con- 
nection with  the  progress  of  Christianity  there.  Another  was  a  chief  from 
the  extreme  west  of  the  province  of  Ankova,  about  three  days'  journey  from 
the  capital.    This  m^  had  long  been  wishing  to  associate  with  the  believers,

and  wi]l,  we  trust,  return  an  enlightened  Christian  and  a  devoted  missionary 
to  his  countrymen.  The  congregation  has  greatly  increased  at  the  temporary 
church  recently  opened  at  Ampamarinana ;  indeed,  it  is  occasionally  well 
filled,  and,  we  trust,  will  be  the  birth-place  of  many  souls." 

EXTRACT  OF  LETTERS  FROM  REV.  R.   G.  HARTLEY,  DATED  ANTANANARIVO, 

OCTOBER  24th,  1864. 

OPENING  OF  NEW  CHAPEL. 

"Although  I  wrote  by  the  last  mail,  I  write  again  to  inform  you  that 
the  new  chapel  on  Andohalo  is  now  finished,  and  was  opened  on  Saturday 
last.  I  have  before  told  you  how  advantageously  the  chapel  is  situated. 
It  is  in  the  heart  of  the  city,  at  the  comer  of  the  large  open  space  where 
all  the  most  important  kabarjs  are  held,  and  where  there  is  the  largest 
daily  market.  Here  there  are  at  all  times  strangers  from  different  parts  of 
the  island,  and  there  can  be  no  doubt  that  a  chapel  in  this  position  will  be 
likely  to  attract  many  who  for  many  years  will  not  hear  the  Gospel  preached 
in  their  own  villages.  The  missionaries  are  unanimous  in  the  opinion  that 
we  ought  not  to  be  content  without  a  thoroughly  good  church  on  this  site. 
Mr.  Ellis  has  strongly  urged  its  purchase,  and  contributed  largely  to  it. 

LIBERALITY  OP  THE   PEOPLE. 

"  The  land  was  very  expensive,  but  four  hundred  and  sixty  dollars  have 
been  sufficient  to  build  the  best  chapel  yet  opened.  The  sum  required  for 
the  purchase  of  the  ground  has,  however,  been  made  up  by  the  very  liberal 
contributions  of  those  who  have  interested  themselves  in  the  formation  of 
the  Church.  One  of  the  members  has  given  fifty  dollars,  another  thirty 
dollars,  three  or  four  twenty  dollars,  and  several  ten  dollars.  Much,  too,  has 
been  given  by  officers  living  in  the  neighbourhood,  who  are  not  professed  Chris- 
tians. A  subscription  list,  amounting  to  upwards  of  three  hundred  dollars,  is 
certainly  a  new  and  wonderful  feature  among  a  people  so  fond  of  money  as  the 
Malagasy  ai'e.  It  must  be  remembered,  too,  that  a  subscription  of  a  few 
dollars  from  a  Malagasy  officer  of  middle  rank  is  equal  to  the  whole  of  his 
ordinary  money  expenditure  for  as  many  weeks.  That  four  hundred  and 
sixty  dollars  should  have  been  paid  mainly  by  the  contributions  of  the 
Malagasy,  certainly  gives  them  a  claim  to  assistance  from  the  Society  and 
its  friends.  The  chapel  that  has  been  built  is  only  small  and  temporary, 
measuring  about  forty-eight  feet  by  thirty-six ;  but,  as  it  has  all  been  matted 
inside — floor,  walls,  and  roof — ^it  looks  very  clean  and  comfortable.  It  is 
intended  that  the  permanent  church  of  wood  should  be  built  aroimd  the 
present  one,  to  hold  1200  people.  I  fear  that  no  more  money  is  to  be  looked 
for  from  the  people,  though  doubtless  not  a  little  will  be  given  in  labour  and 
materials.  It  is  wonderful  that  they  have  done  so  much.  I  shall  write  to 
som«  of  my  friends  in  England,  and  trust  to  get  some  help  from  them ;  but 
I  do  not  see  how  a  church  worthy  of  the  situation  is  to  be  built  without 
considerable  help  from  the  Society.  "We  must  build  of  wood,  as  nothing 
else  is  allowed  as  building  material  within  the  city;  and  large  wood,  such 
as  is  needed  for  such  a  building,  is  expensive,  and  often  difficult  to 
meet  with.    I  think,  too,  that  we  ought  to  have  the  church  floored,  the

windows— in  part  at  least — glazed,  and  the  wood-work  generally  well 
executed.  It  is  also  very  desirable  that  a  wooden  building  in  the  centre  of 
the  town  should  be  roofed  with  tiles  or  zinc,  and  not  with  the  rushes  usually 
employed,  which  very  readily  ignite  in  the  fires  which  are  so  frequent 
here.  I  cannot  give  an  estimate  of  the  cost  of  such  a  building,  but  do  not 
think  that  £500  would  bo  any  too  much;  and  this  would  enable  us  to  erect  a 
church  as  durable  as  any  building  in  the  city  can  be,  and  worthy  of  the  site, 
and  of  our  position  with  the  people.  As  the  building  will  be  the  property 
of  the  Society,  I  do  not  think  that  the  whole  cost,  both  of  purchasing  the 
land  and  building  the  Church,  should  be  thrown  upon  the  congregation  and 
the  missionary.    *    *    * 

LARGE   CONGREGATIONS. 

"  I  cannot  as  yet  tell  what  our  congregation  will  be.  The  Church  at 
Ambohitantely,  to  which  I  have  ministered  since  my  arrival,  has  consented 
to  unite  in  forming  the  new  Church.  I  have  had  given  to  me  a  list  of  forty- 
six  members  who  are  seeking  dismission  from  Analakely.  There  will  also  be 
a  few  from  the  other  Churches.  On  Sunday  the  chapel  was  crowded  both 
morning  and  afternoon ;  many,  indeed,  had  to  remain  outside  or  go  to  othei 
churches.  There  was,  too,  a  larger  number  of  heathen  hearers  at  the  doors 
and  windows  than  I  have  ever  seen  at  any  othek'  place.  Many  of  these 
stayed  for  a  great  part  of  the  service.  As  this  is  almost  the  only  way  in  which 
we  directly  reach  the  heathen  population,  this  fact  gives  hope  of  special  use- 
fulness as  a  really  missionary  Church." 


CHINA. 
PEKING. 


The  friends  of  the  Society  will  read  the  following  Report  by  the  Rev. 
Joseph  Edktns,  of  his  labours  in  the  capital  of  China,  with  wonder  and 
thankfulness.  When  it  is  remembered  that  only  three  years  since  the  mul- 
titudinous population  of  Peking  had  never  heard  the  joyful  sound  of  salvation 
from  the  lips  of  a  Christian  missionary,  we  cannot  but  regard  the  facts 
detailed  in  this  Report  as  evincing  the  special  power  and  grace  of  God  in  the 
conversion  of  upwards  of  twenty  Chinese  and  Manchus  to  the  faith  of  Christ. 
We  are  especially  encouraged  by  the  fact  that,  from  these  native  converts 
several  have  already  proved  faithful  helpers  to  the  truth ;  and  may  humbly, 
but  confidently,  cherish  the  hope  that  even  in  Peking  *'  the  little  one  will 
become  a  thousand." 

It  is  additionally  gratifying  to  reflect,  that  the  Mission  of  our  Society  is 
but  one  among  the  several  Institutions,  British  and  American,  whose  agents 
in  Peking  are  labouring  in  love  and  union  for  the  advancement  of  the  same 
sacred  cause.  May  the  grace  of  the  Holy  Spirit  If^e  .^j;^t[^y^^(^]juidantly 
vouchsafed  upon  their  united  labours !

AUSPICIOUS  COMMENCEMENT  OF  THE  MISSION  IN  PEKING. 

"  Peking,  August  8th,  1864.  ' 
**  My  Deab  Brother, — Since  I  wrote,  giving  you  an  account  of  the  state 
of  the  Mission  in  Peking  in  Januaiy  last,  there  has  been  a  good  measure  of 
prosperity  granted  us.  To  conduct  uninterrupted  missionary  labour  in  this 
great  city  is  a  privilege  highly  to  be  appreciated.  In  former  years,  if  the 
imagination  presented  itself  of  public  preaching  in  Peking,  it  was  too 
romantic  to  be  entertained.  But  when,  at  the  end  of  1860,  the  allied  armies 
marched  up  from  Takoo,  the  presence  oi  Protestant  missionaries  here  became 
possible.  We  see  the  action  of  Providence  in  the  opening  of  the  gates  of 
this  city  to  the  messengers  of  the  Gospel.  Our  devoted  friend  Dr.  Lockhart 
was  eai'ly  on  the  ground,  and  the  hospital  he  established  three  years  ago 
paved  the  way  admirably  for  further  movements  in  advance.  It  was  nine 
months  after  this  auspicious  event  that,  in  the  summer  of  1862,  I  b^an 
public  religious  instruction  within  the  walls  of  the  hospital  This  continued 
till  the  summer  of  1863,  when  I  commenced  some  quiet  movements  in  the 
suburbs.  A  Tien-tsin  convert  of  unassuming  and  grave  deportment  visited 
many  of  the  outlying  portions  of  the  city  with  copies  of  the  Scriptures.  In 
-one  journey,  near  a  busy  gate  in  the  west  part  of  the  Tartar  city,  he  met  aa 
old  Manchu  who  knew  the  Roman  Catholic  doctrines.  He  was  impressed 
with  what  he  heard  from  the  Bible  distributor,  ultimately  he  became  a 
convert,  and  has  been  of  great  assistance  since  in  the  formation  of  a  preach- 
ing station  in  his  vicinity.  His  position  as  an  office-holder  in  the  eofperofr^s 
household,  and  his  extensive  acquaintance  with  young  Manchus,  gave  him  an 
influence  which  he  has  used  well,  adding  to  the  number  of  our  auditors  and 
the  readers  of  our  books.  Near  the  end  of  last  year  the  Tien-tsin  convert 
Mdu  was  able  to  obtain,  first  a  room  in  a  temple,  and  then  a  house,  through 
the  assistance  of  the  convert  just  mentioned,  which  was  the  beginning  of 
regular  work  in  the  west  city ;  for  the  building,  while  used  as  a  dwelling- 
house,  was  also  intended  as  a  chapel. 

EARLY  AND  HOPEFUL  CONTESTS. 

"  For  a  peiiod  now  extending  to  between  eight  and  nine  months,  daily 
preaching  has  been  carried  on  in  that  important  part  of  Peking,  without 
appearance  of  displeasure  or  hostility  in  the  behaviour  of  any  one  who  has 
witnessed  it.  In  addition  to  daily  instruction  imparted  to  aU  comers  in  the 
afternoons,  the  preacher,  who  has  proved  himself  to  be  very  faithful  and 
usefrd,  has  held  meetings  for  prayer  every  evening.  I  have  visited  the 
station  on  most  sabbath  days  myself,  and  have  uniformly  been  much  gratified 
with  the  extent  and  decorous  behaviour  of  the  auditory.  Eight  persons  who 
have  been  brought  to  the  knowledge  of  the  truth,  principally  at  this  station* 
have  now  been  baptized.  Most  of  them  are  young  Manchus.  Two  are 
employed  to  write  in  Manchu  and  Chinese  in  public  oflices.  Three  belong  to 
the  household  of  Prince  Le,  who  distingtdshed  himself  by  remaining  at  his 
post  courageously,  at  the  time  when  our  troops  were  besieging  the  city.  The 
emperor  fled  to  Jehol,  and  the  princes  to  the  western  mountains ;  but  this 
prince,  by  staying  in  his  palace,  showed  something  of  the  bravery  of  hii 
ancestor,  who  was  named  Prince  of  Corea,  for  effecting  the  conquest  of  that

*^Ab  I  mentioned  when  writing  in  Jaanaxy,  a  school  has  been  comzaeneed 
at  oar  second  preaching  statioB,  half  an  Ei^Hah  mile  from  the  hospital. 
The  father  of  one  ol  the  scholars  has  since  become  a  Christian.  A  Manoha 
ofiKcer  residing  in  the  neighboorhood,  and  a  Chinese  from  Tien-tsin,  hare 
also  been  baptized  as  the  first  fruits  of  this  effort.  A  special  agen<7  fi^r 
women  has  latelj  been  oomEmoieed  afc  the  school.  Efficient  and  xmezpeeted 
aid  has  been  rendered  m  this  department  bj  one  who  has  warmly  afc  heart 
the  cause  of  Missions*  Linked  to  ns  onlj  bj  ^e  desire  to  see  Chinese 
wimien  conrerted  to  Christianity,  she  has  eneonraged  by  her  {nresence  the 
formation  of  a  female  daes,  and  shown  a  deep  interest  in  the  indiridnal 
members  of  it.  There  are  now  about  ten  regular  attendants.  They  form, 
with  other  women,  a  part  d  the  sabbath  eongr^aticm,  and  the  ecmrtBtmrn  of 
some  of  them  is  highly  probable.  Th»  principal  iE^>eaker  is  the  mother  of 
the  schoolmaster.  I^ie,  with  her  two  sons,  were  till  recently  MohammedaBS. 
Seeing  her  sons  one  after  tke  other  embrace  Christianity,  she  has  herself 
become  fJftTonrably  du^KMed  to  it.  One  of  her  sons  sits  by  to  prompt  her 
while  she  teaches.  8ereral  of  tiie  women  come  because  they  harre  sons  in  the 
scho(^ — an  instance  oi  the  beneficial  effect  <^  a  charitable  institntion  like  this 
in  extending  the  inflnence  of  the  Gk>spet  tMumg  the  parents  and  neighbours. 

'*  From  the  hospital,  now  nnder  the  care  <^  Dr.  Dndgeon,  the  nnmber  of 
patients  who  ha^e  been  baptised  during  two  years  is  six.  One  hospital 
servant  has  also  been  reeeiTed.  Among  the  six  a  conrerted  Mohamoeehn 
was  appointed  last  winter,  as  already  menti<med,  to  be  seho<^maeter;  and  his 
brother  has  giren  np  his  oj^osition  to  Christianity,  and  also  joined  the 
ranks  of  the  Lord's  serrants.  Bis  abilities  mark  him  out  as  capable  of 
becoming  a  nseM  natiYe  helper.  I  hare  reeeired  him,  with  one  of  the 
Manchus,  to  go  throng^  a  coarse  <^  preparatory  atndy  as  assistant  preachers. 
Tbds  converted  Mohammedan  was*  previons  to  his  baptism,  attacked  on  otte 
occasion  by  a  drunken  neighbour  in  front  of  the  chapel,  and  wounded  in  the 
bead.  When  receiving  the  provocation  and  ixjnry,  he  behayed  in  a  Christian- 
like manner,  expressed  his  pleasure  afterwards  at  suffering  for  the  Gospel's 
sake  (the  offender  being  an  avowed  enemy  to  the  preaching  of  the  truth),  and 
frankly  forgave  the  wrong,  when  the  wrong-doer  confessed  his  fault. 

"  Three  of  the  hospital  converts  have  returned  to  their  homes  in  the  coun- 
try, carrying  with  them  Christian  books,  and  we  hear  from  them  occasionally. 

"  The  whole  number  received  here  is  itcenty,  Hiree  of  the  Tien-tsin  converts 
axe  still  here,  assisting  in  the  work  of  the  HiCssion.

"  I  have  only  to  apeak  now  of  the  need  of  reinforcements.  The  operatioiis 
of  the  Mission  are  likely  to  extend.  The  hospital  is  near  the  centre  of  a 
population  spread  over  at  least  seventeen  square  nules  of  houses.  It  will  be 
easy  to  form  new  preaching  stations  as  native  helpers  offer  themselves..  The 
adstence  of  this  vast  field  for  the  Gospel,  with  its  more  than  a  million 
inhabitants,  would  be  a  sufi&cient  argument  to  urge  upon  the  attention  of  the 
Directors.  More  help  is  needed  for  superintending  stations  and  training 
preachers.    But  I  mnst  say  hei*e^  in  addition,  that  niifiy ^<&rouf  countrymen 


8  MISSIONARY  MAOAZINB 

who  hold  high  posts  in  China  are  faithless  in  regard  to  the  grand  issae  of 
our  operations,  nnless  we  work  with  such  appliances  as  will  affect  the  Hteraiy 
thinking  class  of  the  Chinese.  In  China  the  native  literature  and  philosophy 
are  paramount  in  their  influence.  Onr  countrymen  think  that  philosophy 
must  be  met  by  philosophy,  literaiy  skill  by  literary  skill,  and  classical  lore 
by  classical  lore.  They  think  that  men  of  superior  minds  and  scholarly 
education  should  be  induced  to  come  to  China,  first,  to  spend  ten  years  in 
acquiring  a  facile  command  of  the  native  language  as  spoken  and  written, 
and  then  proceed  to  compose  suitable  treatises  on  Christianity,  adapted  to 
instruct  and  convince  the  learned  classes  in  the  country. 

**  I  do  not  believe  in  this  theory ;  but  it  is  held  by  many  whose  opinions  are 
worthy  of  respect.  And,  besides,  we  all  agree  that  all  talents  should  be 
devoted  to  the  service  of  Gk>d.  If  men  of  shining  abilities  and  the  faculty  of 
adaptation  in  a  rare  degree  should  come  here,  they  would  find  a  sphere  highly 
agreeable  and  highly  important.  They  would  have  the  opportunity  of  labour- 
ing for  Christ's  cause  in  one  of  the  high  places  of  the  field.  Scholars  from 
all  the  provinces  come  here,  and  the  missionary  may  dispute  with  them  as 
soon  as  he  has  gained  the  power  to  do  so.  High  officers  of  Government  find 
their  way  to  the  hospital,  and  our  books  find  their  way  into  the  palace. 
Representatives  of  all  the  adjacent  Asiatic  nations  are  found  here,  speaking 
their  respective  languages.  Men  content  to  study  patiently,  and  possessing 
the  faculties  of  acquisition,  retention,  and  expression,  loving  Divine  truth  and 
zealous  in  its  propagation,  apt  in  teaching,  and  exhibiting  power  in  con- 
vincing— if  they  come  here,  may  run  a  bright  career. 

**  Missions  take  their  place  before  all  speculations  and  philosophical  theories 
upon  th^n.  We  do  not  come  out  among  the  heathen  to  carry  into  effect  a 
philosophical  theory,  but  to  follow  in  the  footsteps  of  our  Lord,  His  apostles, 
and  all  faithM  missionaries,  in  seeking  to  bring  back  a  lost  world  to  God. 
We  want  no  better  theory  than  this.  But  we  do  need  men  of  intellectual 
and  moral  power  to  join  us  in  the  inviting  field  now  presented  in  China,  and 
especially  in  its  metropolis.

Among  the  wonders  of  the  Chinese  capital,  the  most  wonderful  is  the 
"  Altab  to  Heaven,"  described  by  the  Rev.  Jonathan  Lbes  in  the  jonnial 
of  his  first  visit  to  Peking.  It  is  difficult,  indeed,  to  form,  from  any 
descriptiou,  an  adequate  conception  of  this  spectacle;  and  when  it  is 
remembered  that  these  surprising  objects  of  power  and  skill  were  originally 
dedicated  to  the  services  of  religion,  the  whole  scene  is  adapted  to  awaken 
both  admiration  and  regret,  that  a  people  distinguished  by  civilization  and 
art  should  have  been  the  victims  of  a  system  of  idolatry  so  splendid,  and 
yet  utterly  powerless,  for  the  improvement  of  their  hearts  or  their  character. 

"  After  breakfast,"  writes  Mr.  Lees,  "  two  or  three  of  -our  jmrty  went  to 
the  '  AxTAB  TO  Heaven.'    It  is  impossible  to  reproduce  in  language  one's

ieeimgs  on  visiting  such  a  place.  To  me  it  is  of  all  others  in  CMna  the  most 
intensely  interesting,  not  merely  on  account  of  the  rare  artistic  taste  shown  in 
the  design  and  its  execution,  but  on  account  of  its  being  the  sole  remaining 
memorial  of  the  ancient  Monotheism  of  China.  As  I  stood  in  the  slaughter- 
lloase,  and  walked  along  the  long  covered  way  by  which  the  victim  was  led  to  the 
altar,  and,  above  all,  as  subsequently  I  stood  upon  the  magnificent  south  altar, 
with  all  its  associations,  and  looked  round  on  the  groves  and  temples,  with  the 
bine  sky  overhead,  of  which  their  glittering  roofs  were  intended  to  remind  me, 
I  felt  how  strong  was  the  impulse  to  worship,  and  how  grand,  defaced  and 
mingled  though  it  be  by  the  accumulating  superstitions  of  ages,  is  the  tradi- 
tional faith  in  the  '  Supreme  Buler,'  of  which  aU  these  things  are  symbols. 

"I  attempt  no  description  either  of  this  or  of  other  Peking  *  lions;'  one 
would  need  to  write  a  book,  and  a  great  deal  has  already  been  well  said.  I 
extract  a  few  lines  from  Sir  John  Davis's  *  The  Chinese,'  which  is  one  of  the 
best  books  for  friends  at  home  to  read  as  a  popular  summary  of  information 
on  China : — 

"  '  The  Altab  to  Heaven  '  stands  in  a  square  indosure,  measuring  about 
three  miles  in  circuit,  near  the  southern  wall  of  the  Chinese  city.  The  terrace 
(the  altar  itself)  consists  of  three  stages,  diminishing  from  120  to  60  feet  in 
diameter,  each  stage  being  surrounded  by  a  marble  balustrade,  and  ascended 
by  steps  of  the  same  material.  Towards  the  north-west  of  the  inclosure  is 
the  palace  of  abstinence,  where  the  Emperor  fasts  for  three  days  preparatory 
to  offering  sacrifices  to  heaven  at  the  winter  solstice.  On  the  other  side  of  the 
great  central  street  leading  to  the  Tartar  city,  and  just  over  against  the  'Altar 
to  Heaven,'  stands  the  *  Altar  to  Earth.'  This  square  inclosure  is  about  two 
miles  in  circuit,  and  contains  the  field  which  is  "annually  ploughed  by  the 
Emperor  and  his  great  officers,  and  the  produce  reserved  for  sacrifice.' 

"  I  may  add,  that  Sir  John  cannot  have  visited  the  place  himself,  or  he 
would  have  spoken  of  the  slaughter-house,  with  its  enormous  pans  for  flaying 
the  bullocks  used  in  sacrifice ;  of  the  covered  way,  most  elaborately  painted, 
along  which  the  victim  is  led  in  solemn  procession  to  the  place  of  burning; 
and  of  the  smaller  temples,  marble  and  bronze,  with  their  magnificent  roofs, 
in  which  the  tablet  to  Shang-ti,  and  those  of  the  Emperors,  are  placed.  The 
altar  is  wholly  distinct,  and  at  some  distance  from  these.  On  the  great  day 
the  tablets  are  brought  out  and  arranged  upon  the  altar,  that  of  Shang-ti 
being  in  the  centre,  and  the  Emperor  then,  surrounded  by  high  officers,  in  his 
own  name,  and  as  representing  the  people,  worships  the  Great  Supreme.  The 
park,  in  addition  to  the  avenues  already  named,  contains  many  fine  old  trees, 
and  has  a  fine  herd  of  black  cattle  reserved  for  sacrifice,  which  we  saw. 

"  80th. — We  visited  the  famous  Wan-ehen-shan  (hiU  of  a  ripe  old  age),  or 
"Water  Palace.  This  is  ordinarily  called  the  Yuen-ming-yuen;  but  the  truth  is, 
that  the  true  Yuen-ming-yuen  is  several  miles  distant.  The  whole,  however, 
may  be  considered  as  one — an  immense  garden,  probably  fifteen  miles  round 
— and  the  whole  was  desolated  by  our  troops;  but  the  rest  is  closed  to  visitors. 
Much  as  I  had  heard  of  this  place,  I  was  not  prepared  for  such  magnificence. 
Advantage  has  been  taken  of  site,  &c.,  to  form  a  spot  of  unrivalled  beauty, 
even  in  ruin,  and  it  is  hard  to  imagine  a  scene  more  lovely  than  this  must 
have  been  in  its  prime.    There  is  one  main  hill,  and  this  has  been  literally 

Bd

sprinkled  with  temples,  grottoes^  colnxinis^  and  stataes.  It  is  thickly  wooded 
to  the  summit,  and  the  manj^colonred  tiles  glitter  iit  the  sunbeams  like  count- 
less gems.  On  the  south  side  is  a  lake  dotted  with  little  islftnds»  the  largest 
of  which  has  a  mimic  temple,  and  is  joined  to  the  shore  hj  a  beautiful  bridge 
of  marble,  on  the  columned  balustrade  of  which  are  aeulptured  lions,  ettck 
different.  Close  by  this  bridge,  now  inck>8ed  in  a  loose  Bt<»ie  wall,  which 
hides  it  from  those  who  are  not  forewarned,  is  the  image  of  a  fine  cow,  ol 
great  size  and  fine  workmanship,  made  oi  bronze.  The  hiQs  around  are  all 
carefully  decorated:  on  one  a  pagoda,  on.  anothes  a  temi]^e,  and  so  on.  Smaller 
bridges  and  terraces  abound. 

**  On  entering  the  gateway,  two  immense  bronze  Ikms  in  frcmt  struck  us  as 
masterpieces  of  skill.  The  minuteness  and  richness^of  the]w(»rk  upon  them  is 
astonishing.    They  are,  too,  of  great  size. 

'*  Ascending  the  shoulder  of  the  hill,  the  first  ruin  is  that  of  a  marble  temple 
to  Buddha,  which  once  inclosed  a  statue  seventy  feet  hig^.  Hare  and  there  a 
bit  of  richly-carved  walling  still  remains.  From  this  spot,  and  again  as  we 
mount,  we  catch  deHghtfol  glimpses  of  scenery,  the  hill  being  terraced  on 
erery  side.  We  hastened  to  the  porcdain  temple,  which  has  escaped  the 
general  ruin.  It  is  a  marreUous  structure,  corered  from  top  to  bottom  with 
Tari-coloured  trLes^  each  of  the  larger  ones  haying  a  little  ima^  of  Buddha  on 
it — a  fac-simile  of  the  larger  idol  inside.  There  were  fifteen  or  sixteen 
hundred  of  them.    This  temple  crowns  the  hill. 

"  Bight  in  front,  and  covering  a  large  part  of  the  southern  pai*t  of  the  hil]« 
is  a  terrace  at  least  200  feet  in  height.  In  ascending,  we  first  come  to  a  sort 
of  platform  on  which  has  stood  another  shrine — ^in  ruins  now — and  a  dooUe 
staircase.  The  stones  in  the  wall  are  beautifully  laid,  and  the  effect  from 
below  is  wonderfuL 

"  Turning  a  little  to  the  west,  we  again  mounted  to  an  elegant  marble  temple, 
which  is  in  front  of  another  marvel — a  copper  temple.  All  is  metal,  most  ex* 
quisitdy  wrought — ^waUsi,  windows,  doors,  and  roof.  The  way  in  which  the  wood- 
work, &c.,  is  imitated  is  as  suri»nsing  as  tjfee  idea  is  unique.  Its  value  must  be 
enormous.  Further  on  I  came  to  the  ruins  ef  a  little  marble  shrine,  and  then 
wandered  through  the  hill,  which  is  here  hoUowed  out  ingeniously  into  winding 
chambers,  so  that  one  hardly  knows  how  much  is  artificial  and  how  much  in 
its  natural  condition. 

**  Rejoining  the  party,  we  found  the  reoooains  of  a  yet  larger  building  on  the 
low  groxmd,  huge  copper  gods  lying  broken  on  their  £M)e8»  and  two  rows  of 
smaller  ones  on  either  side,  yet  erect."

sixty.  He  was  married  to  thirteen  of  them  in  one  night,  and  at  his  death 
eleven  perished  on  the  funeral  pile. 

" '  Nirunjun  went  to  the  Government-aided  Anglo- Yemacular  School  at 
Shalkea^  neaor  Howsah,  in  186/7,  whfire  he  read  inr  about  three  years.  After- 
wards he  read  in  the  Mohish-toUah  Government-aided  School  for  about  a 
year ;  and  after  that  in  the  London  Mission  School  at  Behala  for  about  two 
years.  He  left  school  in  November,  1868,  and  entered  the  accountant's

" '  Nirunjun  visited  Bhowanipore  at  intervals;  but,  owing  to  the  difficulty 
of  doing  so,  his  visits  were  not  frequent.  Still  he  continued  his  visits, 
though  often  much  chided  bj  his  £iither.  Some  short  time  ago  he  had  a 
dream,  in  which  he  thought  a  strange-looking  person  came  to  him  and 
rebuked  him  for  his  lack  of  sense,  saying,  "  "Why  do  you  delay  to  be 
baptized  P  Gk>  to  Christ  at  once,  lest  you  should  not  be  saved,  but  go  to  hell." 
The  dream  was  so  vivid  that  he  immediately  awoke  and  looked  about,  thinking 
that  it  was  somebody  speaking  to  him.  It  left  his  mind  very  uneasy.  After 
some  days  of  anxious  reflection  on  the  events  of  the  last  two  or  three  years, 
he  determined  to  be  baptized  with  as  little  delay  as  possible.  He  renewed 
his  intercourse  with  his  Christian  friends,  and  on  Thursday  last  came  for 
baptism.  Since  Thursday  his  fether,  brother,  and  Mends  have  talked  much 
with  him.  On  Friday  he  was  sorely  tried  for  three  hours.  If  he  obeyed 
Christ,  he  must  disobey  his  father — ^if  he  obeyed  his  father  he  must  disobey 
Christ.  He  chose  to  obey  Christ.  Has  he  not  done  right?  Christ  said, 
^  Think  not  that  I  came  to  send  i>eace  on  earth :  I  came  not  to  send  peace  but 
a  sword.    For  I  came  to  set  a  man  at  variance  against  his  father,"  <&c. 

"  *  Nirunjun  Chatterjee  threw  away  his  "  pata"  (Brahminical  thread),  a  week 
ago,  and  is  here  now  to  be  baptized,  and  thus  to  profess  Christ  before  all 
men.' 

"  He  stated  to  the  congregation  his  renunciation  of  Hindooism,  and  his 
faith  in  the  Lord  Jesus  Christ.  You  will,  I  am  sure,  join  in  the  hope  that  he 
may  ever  prove  faithful  to  the  Saviour,  and  a  blessing  to  his  countrymen.

THE  LATE  DE8TRXJCTIYE  CYCLONE  AT  CALCUTTA. 

In  continuation  of  the  Rev.  J.  E.  Payitk's  narrative,  published  in  our  last 
number,  of  the  fearful  mortality  and  wide-spread  desolation  occasioned  by 
the  storm-wave  that  recently  swept  over  the  capital  and  the  outlying  district, 
we  now  subjoin  some  further  particulars  of  the  calamity,  furnished  by  Mr. 
Payne,  but  from  which  it  will  also  be  seen  that  the  people  of  India  have, 
in  token  of  their  sympathy  for  the  sufferers,  promptly  raised  for  their  relief 
the  munificent  sum  of  £20,000.  While  we  mourn  over  the  prevalence  of 
natural  and  moral  evil,  it  is  a  profitable  exercise  to  note  how,  as  in  the  present 
instance,  great  calamities  not  unfrequently  give  occasion  for  the  exhibition 
of  extraordinary  acts  of  self-sacrifice  and  active  beneficence. 

'*  Bhowanipore,  Calcutta,  3rd  November,  1864. 
"My  dear  Sir, — ^A  fortnight  ago  I  sent  you  some  brief  notes  on. the 
desolation  wrought  by  the  storm-wave  in  the  late  cyclone,  and  I  told  you  of 
the  efforts  being  made  to  afford  relief  to  the  sufferers.    The  subsoriptions 


FOB  JANUAETy   1866.  18 

have  already  amounted  to  about  £20,000 — a  earn,  sufficient  to  meet  tke 
distress  so  £ar  as  it  is  possible  to  relieve  it  bj  benevolent  effort.  Since  I  wrote 
to  you  a  second  Belief  Expedition  was  sent  down  the  river  Hoogbly  to  the 
Bay  of  Bengal.  I  had  the  privilege  of  being  a  member  of  it.  We  had  a 
Gk>vemment  river- steamer  to  supply  the  people  on  the  banks  of  the  Hooghly, 
and  a  steam -tug  was  sent  after  us,  in  which  we  went  to  the  bay.  This  second 
expedition  extended  much  farther  than  the  first,  and  all  that  I  said  about  the 
loss  of  life  and  the  destruction  of  property  might  be  repeated  and  intensified 
as  to  extent  and  degree.  Wherever  the  wave  dashed  over  the  embankment 
and  rolled  across  the  country  from  five  to  ten  miles  inland,  the  tale  of 
destruction  is  short  but  terrible.  The  houses  have  all  been  swept  away,  and 
all  their  materials  carried  for  miles  by  the  wave.  Considerably  more  than 
half— I  consider  three-fourths — of  the  people  have  perished.  The  survivors 
have  all  been  saved  by  clinging  to  floating  roofs  or  to  the  tops  of  trees.  The 
cattle  and  boats  are  nearly  all  destroyed.  The  people's  clothes  have  either 
been  washed  away  or  torn  to  pieces,  as  they  lashed  themselves  to  trees  with 
them.  The  food  has  been  all  injured,  so  that  half-rotten  rice  is  ihe  only 
article  of  subsistence  they  have. 

**  This  state  of  absolute  destitution  is  true  in  reference  to  many  thousands 
of  survivors,  whilst  they  mourn  over  perhaps  forty  thousand  dead  relatives 
and  neighbours.  A  third  expedition  will  start  five  days  hence,  with  as  much 
food  and  clothing  as  the  steamer  can  take,  and  I  have  been  asked  to  assist 
in  it.  The  Gov^nment  is  making  arrangements  to  establish  public  works 
in  the  distressed  parts :  that  done,  all  urgent  need  will  be  supplied,  and  the 
necessity  for  giving  food  and  clothing  will  be  considerably  lessened.  There 
is  a  suggestion  to  send  materials  for  houses  to  the  parts  most  thoroughly 
swept.  If  it  be  acted  on,  probably  ten  thousand  houses  will  be  built,  and  the 
cost  of  each  will  interest  you.  To  build  a  house  with  one  room,  fifteen  feet 
long,  ten  wide,  and  fifteen  high,  the  estimate  is  £1  Ss.  Sd. 

"  On  hearing  of  this  great  calamity,  probably  the  benevolent  in  England 
will  wish  to  send  subscriptions  to  aid  in  relieving  the  distress.  Should  such 
be  the  case,  let  me  assure  you  that  not  a  penny  need  be  sent  from  England, 
as  the  prompt  and  generous  benevolence  in  India  is  abundantly  sufficient.

CHBISTTAK  LTBERALITT   OF  NATIVE   CONVEKTS. 

The  Rev.  James  Duthie,  Superintendent  of  the  Institution  at  l^agercoil  for 
training  Native  Evangelists,  having  succeeded  to  the  temporary  charge  of 
the  neighbouring  district  of  Jakes  Town,  in  the  room  of  the  Rev. 
J.  F.  G.UJNAWAT,  at  present  in  this  country,  has  furnished  an  account  of  a 
recent  visit  he  paid  to  the  district.    From  this  statement  it  appears  that,  in

proof  of  their  attaelmexii  to  the  ordinances  of  the  (Gospel,  the  pec^le,  out  of 
their  rery  scanty  resonrcee,  and  orer  and  ahove  thdr  sabeoriptions  for  oilier 
pnrposes,  have  raised  towards  the  erection  of  a  new  and  central  church  the 
liberal  contribution  of  £210  sterling — a  sum  truly  wonderM  when  it  is 
considered  that  the  congregations  in  Travancore  are  almost  exclusively 
drawn  from  the  lower  castes,  and  have  barely  the  means  of  providing  the 
of  life. 


*«Nagereoil»  November  2nd,  1864. 

"My  dbab  Db.  TiDlUiir, — ^Testerdi^  we  held  the  Annual  MissionaTj 
Meeting  at  the  head  station,  James  Town.  A  large  concourse  of  people 
assembled.  The  speeches  made  by  the  native  agents  were  among  the  best 
of  the  kind  I  have  heard,  and  the  contributions  amounted  to  240  mpees  (£24). 
There  is  at  present  no  ehureh  or  chapd  at  the  head  station,  which  is  a  great 
drawback  to  the  bedding  of  general  meetings;  so  we  had  to  erect  a  large  tempo- 
rary shed  for  the  purpose.  The  necessity  of  having  a  large  central  church 
at  tibis  station  has  long  been  felt,  and  after  the  arrival  of  Mr.  Gannaway  it  was 
resolved  that  the  work  should  be  commenced  without  forther  delay.  There 
were  no  funds  in  hand  available  for  the  purpose;  but  the  people  came  forward 
with  a  ready  and  willing  mind,  and  pledged  themselves  to  give  to  the  good 
work  according  to  their  ability.  I^ce  assuming  <^arge  of  the  district, 
I  have  made  particular  inquiry  into  this  matter,  and  I  find  that  the  promise 
then  given  has  be^i  very  fJMthfally  kept.  According  to  a  statement  pre- 
pared, and  which  was  read  yestevday  at  the  meetii^,  it  appears  that  the 
people,  over  and  above  what  Hief  hove  contributed  for  other  purposes  (whiek 
in  two  and  a  half  years  amoonta  to  about  1$B00  rupees  (£280),  hare  during 
this  period  raised  for  this  sini^  object,  hy  monthly  and  weekly  subscriptions, 
varying  in  amount  from  one-eighth  of  a  penny  to  threepence  or  fourpence, 
the  astonishingly  laxge  sum  of  2100  mpees  (£210).  Through  their  very  eager 
desire  to  see  this  object  accomplished,  I  believe  the  people  have  in  many 
instances  exceeded  the  Hunt  €i  their  ability. 

"  The  building  commenced  by  Mr.  Gannaway,  and  now  in  process  of  ereotioai, 
is  designed  to  accoaamodate  some  1500  or  2000  people.  The  walls  have 
reached  a  height  of  about  ten  feet,  aoid,  when  finished,  it  will  be  one  of  the 
finest  churches  in  our  Tranrancore  Mission.  The  zeal  of  the  people  has,  I 
fear,  somewhat  abated  of  late,  or,  rather,  their  zeal  is  as  great  as  ever,  but  1 
believe  the  undertaking  is  felt  to  be  of  a  magnitude  quite  beyond  their 
unassisted  endeavours  to  complete.  I  am  not  able  to  say  how  much  will  still 
be  needed  to  finish  the  work,  but  1  believe  it  cannot  possibly  be  under  £250 
or  £300.  I  do  not  know  whether  any  appeal  inserted  in  the  "  Chronicle " 
would  be  approved  of  at  present;  but  I  believe,  if  ever  there  was  a  case 
deserving  help  and  encouragement  from  English  Christians,  this  is  one. 
Thepeoplethemselvea  have  done  more  m  the  time  for  such  an  object  than 
haa  yet  been  done  in  any  part  of  the  Indian  Mission-field ;  certainly,  no 
such  amount  as  £210  has  ever  before  been  raised  in  our  Mission,  nor  in  any 
other  with  which  I  am  acquainted,  by  people  all  of  whom  are  very  poor.  The 
work  is  evidently  too  much  fbr  themselves  alone;  the  speedy  completion  of 
the  building  is  very  necessary,  and,  in  a  case  such  as  this,  I  do  not  doubt

To  the  moumfiil  list  of  promising  missionaries  called  to  their  rest  in  the 
spring-time  of  life,  we  hare  to  add  the  name  of  one  whoy  had  he  liyed,

distingoished  men  who  have  deroted  their  time  and  talents  to  the  canse  of 
Christian  philanthropy.  Dr.  WeUs,  whose  sudden  and  very  unexpected

ments, and  had  prosecuted  his  studies  for  the  medical  profession  with 
singular  ardour  and  success.  But  no  prospects  of  advancement  in  his 
native  country  could  alter  his  settled  piupose  of  devoting  the  noblest 
energies  of  life  to  the  service  of  Christ  among  the  heathen.  Having  been 
appointed,  in  the  capacity  of  a  medical  mimomafy,  to  the  Society's  Station  at 
Hankow,  in  the  north]  of  China,  Dr»  W.  sailed  for  Shanghae,  en  route  for  his 
destination,  in  the  ship  ''  Antipodes,"  on  the  13th  July  ult,  being  then, 
apparently,  in  the  enjoyment  of  excellent  health;  but,  in  the  mysterious 
providence  of  God,  he  was  taken  suddenly  ill  on  the  voyage,  and  fell 
calmly  asleep  in  Jesus  on  Saturday,  the  15th  October. 

The  particulars  of  this  affecting  event  are  given  in  the  following  extract 
of  a  letter  from  the  captain  of  the  *'  Antipodes,"  addressed  to  the  &ther 
of  our  lamented  young  Mend : — 

'  "  Straits  of  Sunda,  2l8t  October,  1864. 

"Mr-WeBa. 
"  Dbab  Sib, — "  I  am  very  sorry  to  have  the  painful  duiy  of  informing  you 
of  the  short  illness  and  sudden  death  of  your  dear  son.  Dr.  Wm.  Weils ;  he 
departed  this  Hfe  at  8  A.M.  on  Saturday,  October  15^.  On  the  Friday 
evening  he  waa  ntting  at  the  table  with  us  all  reading,  and  sMmed  m  mush 
better  spirits  than  usual;  he  retired  to  his  ro<nn  abovt  hatf-past  8  or  9

and  saw  immediate  that  he  was  fast  appioadiiBg  hia  end.  I  called  the 
chief  officer  into  the  room,  and  ad^ed  yo«r  aon  a  fem  qaeakionB  as  to  kia 
being  prepared  to  die.  He  seeaoed  to  think  he  was  not  going  to  die^  up  to 
the  last.  He,  howerer,  said— '  If  it  should  be  God^a  will  to  take  han  away, 
he  was  quite  prepaired  to  go.'  I  asked  him  if  I  should  acquaint  you  with 
his  dying  prospect.  He  saod  that  you  were  well  aware  of  that  fiMt.  He  died 
peacefully,  without  a  groan;  his  soul  went  to  that  Saviour  whom  he  had 
so  truly  loved  and  served.  He  endeared  himself  to  me,  and  to  aH  cm  board, 
by  his  many  amiable  qualities,  and  his  loss  is  very  deeply  legretted.    It

DEATH  OF  THE  EEV.  SAMUEL  P.  ELLIOTT. 

It  is  witb  deep  regret  we  bave  to  announce  tbat  anotber  young  missionary^ 
tbe  son  of  tbe  late  Rev.  Wm.  Elliott,  bimself  being  distinguisbed  among  tbe 
labourers  for  Cbrist  in  Soutb  Africa,  bas,  in  tbe  inscrutable  providence  of 
God,  been  suddenly  removed  from  tbe  land  of  tbe  living,  and  under  circum- 
stances peculiarly  affecting.  Our  young  friend,  wbo  was  bom  and  educated 
in  tbe  Cape  Colony,  became  at  an  early  period  of  life  a  member  of  tbe 
Cburcb  under  tbe  pastoral  care  of  tbe  Rev.  Wm.  Thompson,  at  Cape  Town, 
and,  by  bis  exemplary  conduct  and  disinterested  labours  in  tbe  cause  of  the 
Gospel,  won  tbe  esteem  and  affection  of  bis  pastor  and  otber  friends.  Less 
tban  a  year  ago  Mr.  Elliott,  witb  the  cordial  sanction  of  tbe  Directors,  was 
ordained  to  tbe  missionary  office,  and  appointed  to  tbe  charge  of  tbe  station 
at  DrssELSDORP,  to  which  tbe  general  oversight  of  another  at  Hope  Towir 
bad  recently  been  added.  In  these  important  spheres  of  Christian  effort  our 
young  Mend  laboured  with  singular  devotedness  and  perseverance  until 
arrested  by  the  messenger  of  death.  He  was  called  to  bis  rest  and  reward 
on  tbe  morning  of  the  5tb  November,  after  a  short  attack  of  illness — supposed 
to  be  diphtheria ;  and  what  renders  the  visitation  the  more  afflictive,  parti- 
cularly to  bis  mourning  widow,  is  that  two  of  his  children  were  carried  off 
by  the  same  complaint  and  buried  by  tbe  side  of  their  fettber. 

The  following  particulars  are  furnished  by  the  Rev.  William  Thompson: — 
"It  is  my  mournful  duty  to  convey  to  you  tidings  of  tbe  death  of  our 
devoted  young  brother  tbe  Bev.  S.  P.  Elliott,  wbo  less  tban  a  year  ago  was 
ordained  over  tbe  native  Cburcb  at  Dysselsdorp.  Tbe  Bev.  B.  E.  Anderson 
wrote  me  on  tbe  5tb  November  as  foUows : — '  I  scarcely  know  what  to  say ; — 
my  dear  brother  Elliott  is  no  more ;  be  died  this  morning  of  white  sore 
tlm>at,  and  was  ill  only  four  days.  What  a  mysterious  act  in  Grod's  provi- 
dence— a  man  in  tbe  bloom  of  life,  in  tbe  midst  of  a  useful  and  happy  career 
in  tbe  service  of  bis  Master,  still  extending  bis  labours  of  love,  and  pln-nnitig 
for  further  usefulness,  to  be  cut  off  as  it  were  in  a  moment.  But  we  will  bow 
in  submission  to  tbe  will  of  God.  Poor  Mrs.  Elliott,  I  deeply  feel  for  her. 
Again,  when  I  think  of  my  late  dear  brother's  charge,  and  the  work  be  bas 
left  behind  him,  tbe  thought  is  overwhelming  to  my  mind.  Do  write  and 
come  to  my  assistance.'  Digi,,,^  by  L^OOgLC 


FOB  JANUABT,    1865.  17 

"  The  following  extract  from  a  letter  of  Mr.  Atkinson  to  myeelf,  dated  the 
14th  inet.,  will  be  read  with  a  melancholy  interest.  *  What  a  heavy  and 
unlooked-for  stroke !  What  a  calamity  for  his  poor  widow,  followed  too,  as 
it  has  been,  by  the  death  of  her  two  dear  children.  One,  the  youngest,  was 
bnried  in  the  same  grave  with  her  father ;  and  Jessie,  the  second,  was  taken 
ill  last  Tuesday,  and  died  on  Saturday  afternoon  about  three  o'clock. 
Yesterday  we  went  to  Dysselsdorp,  and  interred  her  remains  hy  the  side  of 
her  father  and  sister.  It  was  very  sad  to  see  the  desolate  dwelling,  the 
empty  study,  and  the  vacant  desk  in  the  chapel.  Only  eleven  months  had 
passed  since  I  was  there  at  the  ordination.  All  was  then  joy  and  ]^ope :  now 
gloom  and  sorrow.  You  will  not  wonder  that  1  felt  it  deeply.  I  gave  an 
address  at  the  chapel,  but  it  was  with  difficulty  that  I  could  control  my 
feelings.  Mr.  Anderson  prayed  at  the  grave.  The  people  sang  a  hymn  on 
our  way  to  it,  and  the  school  children  another  at  the  grave.  It  was  solemn 
and  sweet.  Our  dear  friend  Mrs.  Elliott  has  borne  up  under  it  all  most 
wonderfully.    It  is  reaUy  surprising  to  see  her  so  calm  and  composed.' 

"I  have  known,"  adds  Mr.  Thompson,  "our  dear  brother  Elliott  from 
boyhood;  and  that,  too,  intimately.  Soon  after  connecting  himself  with  the 
Church  under  my  pastoral  care,  he  laboured  very  diligently  in  the  Barrack 
Street  Schoolroom,  where  his  ministrations  among  the  coloured  people  were 
very  acceptable,  and  I  believe  not  without  fruit.  He  made  great  sacrifices 
of  convenience  and  strength  to  attend  to  this  labour  of  love.  When  he 
relinquished  secular  pursuits  and  entered  on  direct  missionary  labour  at 
Dysselsdorp,  his  zeal  and  devotedness  were  most  marked.  The  death  of  the 
Rev.  T.  S.  Hood  left  Hope  Dale  without  a  minister,  and  our  young  brother 
added  this  to  his  already  sufficiently  arduous  charge.  He  had  secured  a 
site  for  a  new  chapel  at  Hope  Dale,  and  was  making  arrangements  for  a 
bazar  to  be  held  on  the  day  on  which  the  foundation-stone  should  be  laid. 
In  a  letter  to  myself,  under  date  8th  October,  referring  to  an  alteration 
in  his  plans,  he  wrote: — *You  will  think  me  very  changeable  in  this 
matter,  but  I  am  not ;  I  am  merely  studying  the  interests  of  my  Church.' 
His  energy  and  well-directed  zeal  will  appear  in  another  extract  from  the 
same  letter : — '  Our  Port  Elizabeth  meeting  was  a  very  pleasant  and  profitable 
one,  and  I  am  very  thankful  I  went.  Kolbe  will  be  able  to  give  you,  vivd 
voce,  an  accoimt  of  all  that  took  place.  I  collected  upwards  of  £40  for  Hope 
Dale  at  Port  Elizabeth  .  .  .  When.  I  purchase  timber  in  Cape  Town,  may 
I  draw  on  the  London  Missionary  Society  on  account  of  the  £60  grant  P 
Pray  let  me  know,  as  I  wish  to  purchase  at  once.'  Might  not  our  devoted 
young  brother,  in  the  spirit  of  the  *  man  after  Grod's  own  heart,'  have  said — 
'  As  for  me,  I  had  in  mine  heart  to  build  an  house  of  rest  for  the  ark  of  the 
covenant  of  the  Lord,  and  for  the  footstool  of  our  God,  and  had  made  ready 
for  the  building :  but  God  said  unto  me.  Thou  shalt  not  build  an  house  for 
my  name.'  And  yet,  although  his  ministerial  career  had  not  extended  over 
three  years,  there  is  good  reason  to  believe  that  our  departed  friend  had  been 
the  instrument  of  building  some  living  stones  into  the  spiritual  temple  of  our 
God,  May  we  not  then  say,  *  Blessed  are  the  dead  which  die  in  the  Lord 
from  henceforth ;  yea,  saith  the  Spirit,  that  they  may  rest  from  their  labours, 
and  their  works  do  follow  them.' "  DQi^^^^  ^y  icriOOglC 


18  MISSIONABY  KAGAZnrE 

(J^ofii  the  importance  and  urgency  of  the  object,  we  are  induced  to  repeai  the  following 

4ppe€U.) 

APPEAL  OF  TEDE  DIRECTORS 

TO  THE  FRIENDS  OF  THE  SOCTEJTY,  AND  ESPECIALLY  TO  THE 

JTJYENILE  OIASSES,  FOB  FUNDS  FOB  THE 

FUBCHASB  AND  OUTFIT  OF  A  NEW  MISSIONARY  SHIP. 

The  intelligence  conveyed  in  onr  nxanber  for  November  last,  of  the  wreck  of 
the  "  John  Williams  "  off  Danger  Island,  in  the  Sonth  Pacific  Ocean,  has 
been  confirmed,  with  all  the  attendant  drcumstances  then  given,  by  l^e 
arrival  of  Captain  Williams  in  this  country.  We  are  thankful  that  the 
Captain's  personal  assurance  confirms  the  report  formerly  made  of  the  merci- 
ful rescue  both  of  the  passengers  and  the  crew,  their  kind  reception  by  the 
natives  of  Danger  Island,  and  their  prosperous  voyage  homeward. 

The  necessity  of  providing  a  missionary  ship  to  succeed  the  "  John 
Williams  "  is  a  conviction  which  has  been  strengthened  by  the  experience  of 
twenty  years,  during  which  that  messenger  of  mercy  ploughed  the  southern 
sea,  and  carried  the  tidings  of  heavenly  love  to  the  cruel  and  d^jaded 
savages  by  which  its  numerous  islands  are  peopled.  No  substitute  for  a 
fnisiionary  ship  can  be  found;  that  is,  no  hired  vessel,  navigated  by  an 
ordinary  body  of  seamen,  could  in  like  d^;ree  insure  the  comfort  of  the 
missionaries,  the  confidence  of  l^e  natives,  and  the  advancement  of  the 
missions. 

The  Directors  have  therefore  felt  constrained  promptly  to  apply  to  all 
friends  of  the  Society,  and  especially  to  the  young,  whose  zeal  and  liberality 
fiave  never  failed,  to  be  up  and  doing,  that  another  **  John  Williams  "  may 
be  sent  forth  from  our  shore,  as  eady  in  the  ensuing  spring  as  may  be  found 
practicable. 

The  friends  of  the  Society,  and  especially  the  children,  both  of  Polynesia 
and  Australia,  have  already  set  an  example  to  the  children  of  Britain.  The 
first  offering  for  the  new  ship  was  made  by  the  native  youth  of  Danger 
Island,  while  the  missionaries  and  passengers  were  rejfogees  among  them, 
and  Mrs.  Williams  was  intrusted  with  their  contributions,  amounting  to 
£S  5b,,  to  place  in  the  hands  of  Dr.  Tidman.  The  children  of  Samoa,  and 
the  native  Christians  also,  began  to  collect  fiinds  as  soon  as  they  heard  of 
the  calamity  which  had  befeUen  their  old  and  much  loved  vessel;  and  the 
Chiistian  youth  throughout  the  several  Colonies  of  Australia  have  for  many 
weeks  past  been  zealously  engaged  in  the  same  labour  of  love. 

In  making  these  gratifying  statements  to  our  young  friends,  we  have  no 
misgiving  as  to  the  renewal  of  their  generous  efforts  on  the  present  occasion. 
Abeady  numerous  and  urgent  applications  have  been  made  at  the  Mission 
House  by  the  superintendents  of  Sunday  schools,  and  the  friends  and  gaaidians

of  our  youth  generaUy,  for  intelligence  and  other  means  for  obtaining  con-

and  we  doubt  not  that,  by  the  close  of  the  present  months  we  shall  have  to 
announce  such  progress  as  will  give  assurance  of  early  and  entire  success. 

It  is  impossible  at  the  present  time  to  state  the  cost  of  the  fdture  ''John 
Williams,'*  but  certainly  not  less  a  sum  than  Five  Thousand  Founds,  exclu- 
sive of  the  amount  for  which  the  lost  vessel  was  insured,  will  be  required 
to  provide  a  new  ship  with  an  adequate  outfit.

CHRONICLE. 


POLYNESIA. 

FEENCH  OPPRESSION  m  THE  LOYALTY  ISLANDS. 

The  first  intelligence  whicli  reached  us  on  this  painful  subject  applied 
exclusively  to  the  Island  of  Lifu ;  but  during  the  last  month  we  have  received 
communications  from  the  Eev.  John  Jones,  of  Mab^,  fh)m  which  it  appears 
that  the  Governor  of  New  Caledonia  had  visited  that  island  in  the  first  instance, 
and  that  he  afterwards  proceeded  to  lafti,  where  he  not  only  imposed  similar 
restrictions,  but  enforced  them  by  acts  of  violence. 

The  Gospel  was  introduced  to  the  Island  of  Mar6  in  the  year  1844,  by  well- 
qualified  native  teachers  irom  Samoa  and  Earotonga ;  and  at  that  time  the 
state  of  the  native  population  was  degraded  and  miserable  in  the  extreme. 
"  On  approaching  its  shores,'*  say  the  missionary  brethren  who  visited  the 
island  two  years  afterwards,  "  we  saw  hundreds  of  the  wild,  naked,  savage, 
heathen  population  running  along  the  beach,  or  danci;ig  through  the  cocoa-nut 
groves,  in  the  utmost  state  of  frenzy ;  and  so  loud  was  the  yelling  as  to  be 
distinctly  heard  on  board  the  ship  as  we  sailed  some  distance  frt>m  the  shore.*' 

But  in  this  island,  to  a  greater  extent  than  in  Lifu,  the  natives  have  been 
brought  under  the  elevating  and  sanctifying  power  of  the  GoHpel.  Multitudes 
are  rejoicing  in  the  blessings  of  salvation,  and  exhibiting  its  controlling 
power  in  their  lives  and  character.  Messrs.  Jones  and  Creagh,  the  two 
English  missionaries  settled  on  the  island,  have  from  time  to  time  given  the 
most  cheering  accounts  of  the  success  with  which  God  has  graciously  crowned 
their  labours,  in  the  establishment  of  schools,  the  increase  of  the  churches, 
and  the  conversion  of  the  heathen.  In  this  peaceful  and  improving  island 
the  French  €k)vemor  of  New  Caledonia  made  his  appearance  for  the  first 
time  in  June  last,  and  the  following  letter  of  our  missionary  describes  the 
objects  and  results  of  his  visit : —  Digitized  by  LjOOgLC

36  MISSIONARY  MAOAZINB 

"Nengon^  (Mar6),  Angoet  26th,  1864. 

"  Mt  deab  Doctob, — Since  writing  to  yon  in  Jun6  last,  we  hare  met  with 
a  very  serions  check  to  our  work,  which  had  of  late  been  progressing  most 
rapidly  and  encouragingly. 

"  The  Governor  of  New  Caledonia  paid  ns  a  visit  on  the  20th  of  June  last. 
We  had  heard  some  time  previously  that  we  mig^t  expect  snch  a  visit,  and  so 
were  somewhat  prepared  to  hear  the  natives  shouting,  one  fine  morning,  that 
two  steamers  were  running  into  our  bay.  I  found  that  the  Gk)vemor  was 
proceeding  to  visit  the  islands  of  the  Loyalty  Group,  and,  in  course,  he  com- 
menced with  this  island. 

"He  blamed  me  for  living  in  a  Pi*ench  colony  without  a  permit  of  resi- 
dence. I  replied  that  I  did  not  know  officially  that  this  was  a  French  colony — 
had  merely  heard  by  report  that  such  was  the  case.  He  said  that,  when  New 
Caledonia  was  taken  possession  of  by  the  French  Government,  the  Loyalty 
Group  was  mentioned  in  the  programme,  and  published  in  the  'Sydney 
Herald.'  (I  cannot  vouch  for  the  truth  of  this.)  Has  any  nation  the  power, 
by  the  law  of  nations,  to  take  possession  of  a  place,  or  group  of  islands, 
merely  by  name,  and  by  publishing  this  act  in  a  newspaper  ?  For  the  Loyalty 
Group  is  quite  a  distinct  group  i^om  that  of  New  Caledonia,  as  much  so  as 
the  Society,  or  Hervey,  or  Samoan  groups  are  distinct  from  each  other.  The 
French  flag  had  never  been  hoisted  on  the  Loyalty  Group  till  it  was  hoisted 
on  Lifd  in  the  month  of  May  in  the  present  year ;  and  we  think  that  hoisting 
it  on  New  Caledonia  ten  years  ago  did  not  constitute  the  Loyalty  Group  a 
French  colony,  and  therefore  we  are  not  liable  for  living  here  without  a 
permit  of  residence. 

"  The  Governor  proceeded  to  inform  me  that  all  purchases  of  land  from  the 
natives  were  null,  and  that,  if  I  wished  to  retain  possession  oi  my  pre- 
mises, I  must  repurchase  them  from  the  Government.  Having  leamt  that  I 
coidd  not  teach  French,  he  told  me  that  I  could  not  ke^  schools  any  more, 
as  it  was  a  law  of  the  colony  that  any  person  opening  a  school  must  be  able 
to  teach  the  French  language.  Hence  I  have  been  compelled  to  dose  the 
Listitution  for  Training  Natnre  Evangelists,  as  well  as  our  boarding-sohool, 
and  all  the  public  schools.  I  am  happy  to  say,  however,  that  these  (the 
public  schools)  are  still  carried  on  by  the  natives  themselves.  I  have  no 
connection  whatever  with  them  now. 

"  He  permitted  me  to  continue  my  duties  as  a  Protestant  pastor  of  the 
Protestant  people  only,  but  strictly  prohibited  me  from  preaching  to  any  of 
the  heathen.  # 

"He  interdicted  also  the  Barotongan  and  Samoan  evangelists  in  their 
work,  and  said  they  could  only  live  in  the  colony  as  private  individuals.  We 
still  hoped  to  have  the  assistajice  of  our  own  natives  as  evangelists ;  but  we 
have  since  received  a  letter  from  his  Excellency,  saying  that  the  Maj<§ 
catechists,  as  well  as  Samoan  and  Barotongan,  must  altogether  cease  from 
imparting  instruction,  under  the  penalty  of  being  severely  punished.  We 
might  then  ask.  What  are  the  people  to  do  if  even  iheir  own  counttymem  may 
not  become  their  teachers  and  pastors  P 

"  He  has  intimated  also  in  the  same  letter,  that  even  our  privilege  of  acting 
as  pastors  to  the  people  will  soon  be  curtailed.    Despatches  have  been  for- 


rOR  FEBBVABYy    1865.  37 

wai^ded  to  France  relatiye  to  the  position  the  Protestant  pastors  are  to 
occupy  in  this  colony;  and  when  an  answer  is  obtained  I  suppose  we  diail 
know  onr  jEB.te. 

**  We  trust  that  the  Directors  will  be  able,  through  our  own  Government, 
to  obtain  and  secure  to  us  the  privilege  of  prosecuting  our  labours  in  the 
cause  of  Christ  without  hindrance.  We  expect,  of  course,  to  be  subject  to 
French  law,  and  we  shall  feel  it  our  duty  also  to  exhort  the  people  around  us 
to  submit  peaceably  to  the  same ;  but  we  do  not  understand  having  a  special 
law  made  by  the  caprice  of  the  Government  for  us  missionaries,  to  which 
other  colonists  are  not  subject.  We  are  now  nothing  better  than  prisoners — 
jfor  idiat  crime  we  are  not  privileged  to  know — ^but  it  is  a  &ct  that  we  cannot 
move  about  without  first  obtaining  permission,  and  when  we  se^k  that,  it  is 
refiised  us.  The  bretiiren  at  Lifu  cannot  visit  us,  neither  can  we  visit  Idfu ; 
but  other  colonists  can  go  about  where  they  please.  We  have  important 
business  as  a  Mission  to  transact,  but  we  cannot  meet  together  to  transact  it. 

"  The  Governor  proceeded  from  this  to  Idfu,  and  there,  I  am  sorry  to  say, 
he  at  once  attacked  the  people  for  some  cause  which  as  yet  remains  undis- 
covered. I  need  not  enter  into  the  particulars  of  this  affair,  as  I  have  no 
doubt  Mr.  Macfarlane  will  write  to  you  fully  upon  the  subject.  I  may,  how- 
ever, add  that  when  we  visited  the  island  in  the  *  Day  Spring,'  a  few  days 
afterwards,  we  found  that  the  soldiers  had  pillaged  and  burnt  up  the  villages, 
destroyed  the  cocoa-nut  groves,  and  turned  the  chapel  into  barracks.  The 
pulpit  was  the  commander's  bed-chamber,  the  Mission  pew  the  pantry,  and 
the  benches  were  being  cut  up  for  firewood !  We  were  not  permitted  to  land, 
nor  hove  any  interview  whatever  with  our  brethren  there.  All  religious 
worship  was  at  that  time  forbidden  throughout  the  island;  but  we  have  heard 
maoe  that  the  natives  are  again  permitted  to  worship  among  themselves. 
The  missionaries  are  not  allowed  to  preach  or  teach.  The  contributions  of 
eoooa-nut  fibre  to  the  London  Missionary  Society  have,  to  a  great  extent, 
been  destroyed  by  the  soldiers.  We  fear  henceforth  that  the  natives  will  not 
be  allowed  to  offer  any  more  contributions  to  the  support  of  religion  in  any 
way.    *  A  voice  of  wailing  is  heard  out  of  Zion,  How  are  we  spoiled  !' 

*'  We  are  at  a  loss  to  conceive  what  the  French  can  see  in  these  islands  to 
covet :  mere  barren  rocks,  no  harbours,  no  rivers,  no  wood ;  nothing,  in  fact, 
that  will  be  of  any  use  whatever  to  such  a  government.  But  the  missionary 
sees  something  to  covet :  he  sees  immortal  souls  perishing  without  Christ, 
and  to  whom  Christ  has  sent  him  to  proclaim  salvation  through  His  name. 
To  proclaim  a  Saviour  to  sinM  man  is  the  subject  of  attraction  to  the 
missionary.

From  the  above  communication  it  will  be  seen  that  the  object  of  M. 
GuiLLAiN  was  carried  out,  though  without  violence,  in  Mar^,  asinLiru;  and 
we  have  reason  to  believe  that  in  the  third  island  of  this  group,  Uea,  tho 
same  restrictions  have  been  imposed,  and  that  in  fact  the  religious  liberty, 
both  of  the  missionaries  axld  their  people,  it  for  the  present  at  an  end.

28  MISSIONARY  MAGAZINE 

The  Directors  have,  in  concert  with  the  representatives  of  our  several 
Missionary  Societies,  made  strong  appeals  to  her  Majesty's  Grovemment  to 
exercise  their  most  powerful  influence  with  the  Government  of  France  for 
the  redress  of  the  grievous  wrongs  which  have  been  perpetrated  on  the 
missionaries  and  their  people  of  the  Loyalty  Islands ;  and  they  were  happy  to 
find  that  their  application  had  been  anticipated  by  the  noble  Secretary  for 
Foreign  Affairs,  and  that  he  was  continuing  to  employ  most  earnest  en- 
deavours, with  a  strong  assurance  of  ultimate  success.  A  memorial  has  also 
been  addressed  directly  to  the  Emperor  of  the  French,  signed  by  noblemen 
and  gentlemen  of  high  official  position,  which  has  been  forwarded  throng 
the  French  ^J^bassador. 

It  should  be  added  that  some  modifications  at  least  of  these  oppressive 
proceedings  were  demanded  by  the  French  Government,  and  a  despatch  to 
that  effect  was  addressed  to  M.  Guillain  so  early  as  the  month  of  October 
last.  What  may  be  its  practical  value  cannot  at  present  be  confidently 
anticipated ;  but  the  following  communication  from  the  French  Minister  of 
Marine,  which  we  give  for  the  information  of  our  readers,  has  been  received 
by  a  gentleman  deeply  interested  in  this  painful  case ;  and  we  trust  that  the 
measures  which  have  been  since  adopted  may  secure  a  larger  amount  of 
unrestricted  freedom  than  the  document  itself  appears  to  indicate : — 

"  His  Majesty,"  writes  the  Minister,  "  directs  me  to  apprise  you  that  the 
English  residing  in  the  Loyalty  €hx>up  may  confide  in  the  protection  of 
France ;  that  if,  with  a  view  to  tiie  opening  of  schools,  and  the  acquisition  of 
land,  of  which  they  may  be  in  want,  they  have  failed  to  seek  the  necessaiy 
sanction,  conformably  to  the  general  regulations  regarding  our  poasessioiis 
in  those  seas,  they  have  only  to  demand  such  sanction,  and  it  will  be  imme- 
diately accorded ;  finally,  they  will  be  in  no  respect  shackled  in  the  exercise 
of  their  ministry,  so  long  as  nothing  occurs  to  interfere  with  the  exercise  of 
our  authority. 

"  Since  the  26th  October  last,  instructions  to  this  effect  have  been  commu- 
nicated to  the  Gk)venior  of  New  Caledonia." 


ERAMANGA. 

It  is  gratifying  to  turn  from  the  despotic  and  oppressive  measures  exercised 
towards  our  missionaries  and  their  people  in  the  Loyalty  Islands,  to  glance 
at  the  hopeful  prospects  which  are  supplied  from  Eeamavga.  In  the  former 
group  of  islands  wc  have  seen  the  twilight  leading  on  the  morning,  and,  as 
we  hox>ed,  a  precursor  of  mid-day ;  but  suddenly  the  sky  is  overcast,  slid 
storm  and  tempest  seem  to  be  at  hand.  But  in  Ekajcaxga,  where  we  have  so 
long  mourned  over  the  total  darkness,  light  is  arising,  and  we  trust  that  God 
is  about  to  avenge  the  death  of  His  saints  by  bestovnng  the  blej^^^)^  of  grace 
and  salvation  upon  the  degraded  and  savage  peoplel^  ^^^"^  ^^ 


POR  FEBRUARY,    1865.  29 

The  Bev.  Samuel  Ella,  describing  the  present  state  and  prospects  of  the 
island,  writes  as  follows : — 

''  We  were  five  days  beating  up  in  the  Mission  vessel  '  Day-spring '  from 
Fate  to  Eramanga.  We  made  Dillon's  Baj  by  nine  a.m.  on  Saturday  the  16th 
July.  The  wind  falling,  we  went  ashore  in  the  boat,  and  were  nearly  two 
hours  pulling  in.  As  we  moved  in  close  along  the  shore,  natives  came  down 
to  the  rocks  and  shouted  to  us ;  some  waved  cocoa-nut  leaves  as  a  signal  of 
good-will  and  invitation  to  land.  We  did  not  know  then  that  these  were 
Christians,  though  we  observed  they  were  more  decently  clad  than  the  heathen 
are.  We  approached  the  fatal'  bay  with  melancholy  feelings :  as  we  entered 
we  saw  very  distinctly  the  scene  which  has  so  often  been  described.  We 
found  the  Aneiteum  teacher,  and  Joe  and  Kauiaui,  and  a  large  number  of 
natives  waiting  to  welcome  us.  They  took  us  to  their  chapel,  a  very  unpre- 
tending little  place,  and  to  the  teacher's  house.  Joe  at  once  informed  us  of 
the  state  of  things  on  this  island,  and  gladdened  our  hearts  by  the  intelligence 
that  about  300  people  around  the  bay  were  attending  the  means  of  grace 
and  were  really  anxious  for  instruction.  They  had  within  a  few  months 
erected  four  chapels.  Several  of  the  natives,  we  trust,  have  heartily  embraced 
the  truth,  and  are  desiring  to  live  in  accordance  with  the  will  of  God.  We 
met  about  twenty  of  these.  We  paid  a  visit  to  the  grave  of  Mr.  and  Mrs. 
Gordon,  on  the  right  bank  of  the  river.  It  was  in  a  very  dilapidated  condition, 
but  a  new  fence  was  being  placed  around  it.  Mr.  Gordon,  who  was  with  us, 
was  greatly  moved  at  this  scene.  We  aU  viewed  this  sacred  resting-place  of 
the  remains  of  these  martyrs  for  the  Redeemer's  cause,  with  feelings  of  hope> 
mingled  with  sorrow. 

"  In  reference  to  the  hopes  which  we  may  now  entertain  for  Eramanga,  we 
might  have  appropriated  the  words  of  Montgomery  as  we  looked  on  thd*  grave 
of  these  servants  of  God : — 

'  This  place  is  holy  ground : 

World,  with  thy  cares,  away. 
Silence  and  darkneee  reign  around ; 

But,  lo !  the  break  of  day. 
What  bright  and  sudden  dawn  appears 
To  shine  upon  this  scene  of  tears ! ' 

"  The  next  day,  Sabbath,  we  left  the  vessel  at  nine  o'clock,  and  found  a  large 
company  of  natives  assembled  on  the  beach  to  greet  us.  We  proceeded  to 
the  chapel,  for  Divine  service.  I  counted  120  in  the  building,  and  there 
remained  about  thirty  outside,  who  could  not  obtain  room  within.  Most  of 
the  assembly  were  tolerably  well  clad.  Mr.  Gordon  read  a  chapter  from  his 
brother's  MS.  translation  of  Luke,  and  afterwards  a  short  address.  Mr. 
Inglis  followed  with  a  few  words,  interpreted  by  the  teacher.  We  also  had 
English  services  on  board :  that  of  the  morning  was  attended  by  Mrs.  Henry 
ai^d  her  family,  from  Mr.  H.'s  sandalwood  establishment.  Mrs.  Henry  showed 
us  much  kindness  during  our  brief  stay  at  Eramanga, 

"  The  next  morning  we  again  visited  the  shore,  and  projected  a  journey  to 
the  place  where  Mr.  and  Mrs.  Gk)rdon  resided  at  the  time  of  their  murder. 
Captain  Eraser  took  his  photographic  apparatus  to  obtain  views.  The 
road  was  a  difficult  and  steep  ascent  of  nearly  two  miles.    The  first  spot 


30  MI88IONAAT  MA6AZIKM 

pointed  oxit  to  us  was  the  ground  on  whkh  Mr.  Gk^rdon  was  ereoting  bis 
house  at  the  time  of  his  murder.  Some  of  the  stakes  of  the  fence  were  stOl 
standing.  This  is  a  healthy  locality,  I  think,  and  commands  a  very  pretty 
▼iew.  We  next  ascended  half  a  mile  higher,  and  Joe  pointed  out  to  us  the 
different  objects  marking  the  sad  erent.  The  bosh  where  the  nativee  finwi 
Bunkhil  lay  in  wait ;  the  tree  &om  which  the  look-out  was  kept,  and  from 
behind  which  the  man  sprang  who  struck  the  first  blow  (after  striking  the 
blow  he  fled  down  the  hill) — and  we  then  came  to  the  spot  where  our  poor 
brother  fell.  It  was  marked  by  great  leaTes  spread  there  by  some  wbo 
bad  just  preceded  us.  This  tribute  to  his  memory  is  paid  from  time  to 
time,  for  what  purpose  I  did  not  ascertain.  The  path  up  which  Mr.  G.  ran 
was  a  yery  rugged  and  entangled  one,  and  we  could  plainly  see  how  he  stumbled 
there;  We  continued  our  walk  to  the  place  where  the  house  stood,  and  wb«re 
Mrs.  G.  was  killed.  A  tree  has  been  planted  by  the  Christian  natiyes  on  the 
spot  where  Mrs.  G.  fell.  These  are  spots  of  melancholy  interest.  Our  praj«r 
is,  that  the  day  may  soon  come  when  those  who  planned  and  those  who  per* 
peferated  this  crud  deed  may  together  mourn  in  sincere  repentance  their 
wickedness  and  folly.  On  returning  to  the  shore,  I  was  strprised  to  find  the 
murderer,  Nah^bili,  and  his  party.  He  seemed  to  understand  very  little  the 
enormity  of  his  crime,  or  the  feelings  with  which  we  must  view  it ;  for  he 
oame  on  purpose  to  visit  the  ship.  I  refused  to  shake  hands  with  him,  a&d 
through  Mana  told  him  what  we  thought  of  this  deed ;  that,  whilst  Kaoiaid's 
offence  could  be  oyerlooked,  as  haying  been  committed  in  ignorance  of  the 
olgect  of  Mr.  Williams's  yisit,  and  in  revenge  for  injuries  done  by  omr 
eountrymen,  there  was  no  such  excuse  for  Nah5bili«  I  xu-ged  him  to  constder 
rightly  what  he  had  done,  and  repent  of  his  sin,  and  seek  for  pardon  thron^i 
Jesus  Christ.  Before  returning  to  the  ship  we  held  a  meeting  with  the 
natiyes  who  had  come  together  to  welcome  us.  Mr.  Gknrdon  and  I  addresoecl 
them.  These  poor  creatures  had  brought  a  present  of  yams  and  fowls,  and  a 
pig  for  tlie  ship.  Mr.  Inglis  thanked  them  for  this  evidence  of  their  regard. 
As  we  left  the  shore  to  return  to  the  vessel,  the  women  who  had  followed  us 
to  the  boat  set  up  a  loud  lamentation.  We  sailed  from  Dillon's  Bay  in  the 
evening,  with  a  very  light  wind." 


MADAGASCAK. 

FoT  only  at  the  Capital  and  in  the  surrounding  country,  but  in  districts 
more  remote,  the  interests  of  the  Saviour's  kingdom  are  visibly  extending 
and  gathering  strength.  In  the  city  of  Aktajt aitakivo  two  additional  moi- 
gregations  have  lately  been  formed  and  native  chapels  erected,  making  the 
present  number  seven.  The  congregations  are  generally  equal  to  the  capaciQr 
of  the  buildings,  and  the  number  of  church-members  bears  a  good  proportion 
to  the  number  of  attendants.  In  confirmation  of  this  we  give  the  following 
table  of  statistics,  supplied  by  the  Rev.  W.  E.  Cous^^^:—  ^OOQLC

There  are  SoHOOLBin  ooimectiQii  with  each  of  the  above  congpregationSy  with 
an  avwage  atfondaaoe  of  60  pupils.  In  addition  to  these  congr^;ational 
Bdiook  18  the  Oentral  Training  Sdiool,  wfaioh  has  generally  abont  140  in 
attendance. 

**  I  am  unable,"  adds  Mr.  Cousins,  "  to  speak  with  eertamty  about  the 
number  of  native  pastors  associated  with  the  several  missionaries.  I  have 
two  who  are  called  pastors,  and  three  or  four  who  occasionally  preach,  and  I 
think  this  is  a  fair  sample  of  the  rest.  The  number  of  deacons  in  my  church 
ia  ten,  but  this  is  rather  over  the  average." 

The  number  given  above  of  actual  attendants  on  the  several  churches 
applies  to  the  Sabbath  mfwning ;  but  in  the  afternoon  there  is  to  some  extent 
aTchange  of  persons,  making  at  least  6000  attendants  during  the  Sabbath ; 
and  to  these  nnist  be  added  not  lets,  probaAtly,  thscn  1000  more  detained  from 
rarious  causes  from  publio  worship,  making  about  7000  professed  Christians 
residing  tn  the  capital.  In  many  villages  within  three  or  four  miles  of 
Antananarivo  there  are  congregations  and  church-members,  of  which  no 
returns  have  been  made ;  but  in  a  recent  instance  a  new  chapel  was  opened 
in  the  town  of  Ilafy,  at  which  our  friend  the  Rev.  William  Ellis,  who 
officiated,  states  that  500  persons  were  present  These  numbers  will  be 
sufficient  to  prove  the  strength  of  the  Mission,  and  to  encourage  cheering 
expectations,  under  God's  blessing,  of  prosperity  and  permanence. 

The  Madagascar  €k>vemment  continues  to  afford  its  protection  to  the 
native  Christians ;  and,  although  there  are  doubtless  many  evil-minded  persons 
who  would  be  glad  to  see  the  days  of  persecution  return,  there  is  at  present 
no  ground  for  apprehension.  On  the  contrary,  Mr.  Paxekham,  the  English 
consul,  is  now  at  the  capital,  negotiating  a  new  treaty  of  commerce  and 
friendship  with  our  Government ;  and  one  of  the  most  important  provisions  of 
that  treaty  is  perfect  freedom  and  government  protection  to  the  missionaries 
and  the  native  Christians. 

The  following  is  an  extract  from  the  last  letter  of  our  friend  Mr.  Ellis, 
dated  November  dOth,  which  confirms  the  general  statements  now  gplven : — 


82  MISSIONARY  MAGAZINB 

"  Few,  if  any,  changes  of  importance,  so  fsur  as  the  people  are  ooncemfid, 
have  occurred  since  the  departure  of  Mr.  Cousins.  The  congregadoQ  at 
Ampamarinana  is,  I  think,  becoming  more  fixed,  and  is  encouraging. 
Mrs.  Briggs  is  doing  much  good  among  the  females.  The  same  may  be  said 
of  Andohalo,  where  Mr.  Hartley  is  labouring.  The  schools  in  connection 
with  the  congr^ations  are  reviying,  and  exerting  a  widening  and  increasingly 
beneficial  influence  on  the  people,  though  the  value  of  education  is  still  verj 
low  in  the  estimation  of  the  multitude.  Our  central  school  is  still  kept  open, 
and  we  anxiously  wait  the  arrival  of  a  competent  master  and  mistress,  when 
we  hope  it  will  maintain  its  intended  position  among  the  agencies  of 
enlightenment  for  Madagascar,  and  prove  a  fountain  of  blessing  to  multitudes 
of  the  young.  In  the  meantime  "Mbr,  Kessler  is  doing  what  he  can  to  render 
it  as  useful  as,  under  existing  circumstances,  it  can  be  to  the  children  of  the 
capital.  Notwithstanding  the  very  recent  opening  of  two  new  places  of 
worship  in  the  capital,  viz.,  Ampamarinana  and  Andohalo — and  a  number 
have  left  other  churches  to  join  these  newly-gathered  congregations  (more 
than  thirty  communicants  left  us  at  Ambatonakang^) — ^theform^  chapels  are 
well  attended,  and  the  number  united  in  fellowship  but  little  less  than  it  was 
before  these  places  were  opened, 

'*  The  Gospel  is  still  spreading  among  the  villages.  The  week  before  last  I 
preached  at  the  opening  of  a  new  chapel  at  Ilafy,  an  ancient,  picturesque,  and 
celebrated  royal  village,  once  the  capital  of  the  surrounding  country,  where 
not  fewer  than  500  persons  were  present.  The  chapel,  which,  including  the 
minister's  room  and  vestry  under  the  same  roof,  is  nearly  80  feet  long  and 
proportionably  wide,  was  built  by  the  people  themselves,  and  is  one  of  the 
neatest  and  best-finished  places  of  worship  I  have  yet  seen  in  Madagascar. 

"  Prom  the  more  remote  stations  we  continue  to  receive  good  accounts 
Our  intercourse  with  them  seems  to  be  increasing,  and  few  leave  to  return, 
without  taking  a  supply  of  books.  We  are  most  at  a  loss  for  spelling  or 
lesson  books  and  native  hymn  books ;  but  the  supply  of  printing  materials 
recently  received  will,  we  hope,  render  the  issues  firom  the  press  equal  to  the 
claims  of  the  people." 


INDIA. 

BANOALOBB  EDT7CATIOKAL  INSTITXJTION. 

{From  the  "  Madras  Times"  qf  November  1st,  1864.) 

'*  The  An-niml  Examination  of  the  English  Institution  connected  with  the 
London  Mission,  Bangalore,  was  held  on  the  26th  October,  in  the  Mission 
Chapel,  when  many  friends,  European  and  Native,  were  interested  spectators 
of  the  proceedings.  The  chair  was  taken  at  twelve  o'clock,  by  Lieutenant- 
Colonel  Dobbs.  Prayer  having  been  offered  by  the  Rev.  T.  Hodson,  of  the 
Wesleyan  Mission,  the  first  classes  were  examined  in  Scripture,  Ancient 
History,  the  History  of  India,  and  Geography ;  after  which  the  Bev.  B.  Bice 
made  the  following  statement : — 

'' '  The  number  of  schools  connected  with  the  Bangalore  Mission  is  16, 


FOR  FEBKUABY,    1865.  33 

Tiz.,  English  schools,  6 ;  Canarese  boys'  schools,  2 ;  Tamil  boys'  schools,  2 ; 
female  schools,  8;  containing  a  total  of  737  scholars,  viz.,  543  boys  and 
194  girls.  The  English  schools  have  for  their  special  object  the  training 
of  teachers  and  preachers  for  Mission  work,  and  the  bringing  of  Christian 
tmth  to  bear  upon  the  middle  and  upper  classes  of  native  society. 
The  present  number  of  scholars  on  the  books  is  407,  viz.,  in  the  Pettah 
school,  109 ;  in  the  Cantonment  school,  172 ;  and  in  the  Alsoor  school,  59 :  to 
which  has  been  added,  during  the  past  year,  a  school  at  Maloor,  on  the 
railway  line,  twenty-four  miles  from  Bangalore,  where  a  very  encouraging 
commencement  has  been  made,  and  67  of  the  sons  of  the  principal  inhabitants 
of  the  town  have  entered  upon  their  studies  under  the  superintendence  of  one 
of  our  native  evangelists,  with  an  earnestness  which  augurs  well  for  their 
future  progress.  The  education  in  these  schools  is  not  gratuitous,  except  in 
the  case  of  some  of  the  poorer  scholars.  The  amount  of  fees  collected  during  - 
the  year  has  been  344  rupees.  The  majority  of  the  pupils  are  upwards  of^ 
twelve  years  of  age :  many  of  them  ai-e  young  men.  They  are  from  various  . 
classes  of  the  community,  in  the  foUowing  proportions : — Brahmins,  87 ; 
Mudliars,  and  other  Sudras,  224 ;  Pariahs,  20 ;  Mahommedans,  23 ;  Roman 
Catholics,  5 ;  Protestant  Christians,  48.    Total,  407. 

"  *  A  special  feature  of  interest  in  the  schools  is,  that  48  are  Christians, , 
many  of  them  being  the  children  of  the  members  of  our  native  congregation, 
who  will,  we  hope,  rise  up  to  be  a  blessing  to  their  countrymen  in  after  years. . 
Nearly  all  the  teachers  are  Christians,  who  have  themselves  been  trained  in 
the  schools.    Five  are  theological  students.    Since  the  last  examination,  two, 
who  were  formerly  students,  and  had  completed  their  term  of  study,  have  beeB. 
received  as  evangelists.     Our  native  agency  at  Bangalore  now  includes-* 
1  Ordained  native  Minister,  4  Evangelists,  3  Catechists,  12  School  Teachers,^ 
1  Colporteur,  and  1  Bible-woman ;  most  of  whom  are  the  fruit  of  the  labours 
of  past  years  at  this  station,  and  are  an  evidence  that  our  efforts  have  not  - 
been  in  vain.    Without  the  help  of  the  native  assistants,  it  would  be  quitt 
impossible  to  carry  on  the  various  operations  of  the  Mission.    And  it  is  a 
mark  of  progress  that  wd  are  able  to  avail  ourselves  to  so  large  an  extent  of 
an  agency  raised  up  in  the  country. 

"  *  On  the  whole,  we  have  cause  for  gratitude  that  so  much  has  been  accom* 
plished,  while  at  the  same  time  we  long  to  see  many  of  those  under  our  charge  - 
openly  avowing,  what  we  know  to  be  their  secret  conviction,  that  Christianity 
is  true  and  divine.  May  the  Lord  soon  enable  them  to  cast  off  the  fetters 
with  which  they  are  bound,  and  to  esteem  the  reproach  of  Christ  greater 
riches  than  the  treasures  of  this  world,  having  respect  to  the  recompense  of 
reward. 

"  The  senior  class  was  then  called  up  and  examined  at  some  length,  on 
the  first  five  chapters  of  the  Epistle  to  the  Romans,  and  on  the  History  of 
Europe  at  the  time  of  the  Reformation ;  after  which  the  Chairman  rose  and 
delivered  to  the  scholars  an  appropriate  and  earnest  address,  to  the  following 
effect:— 

"  •  I  have  been  gratified  with  the  evidence  you  have  afforded  this  momingi, 
of  diligence  and  success  in  the  prosecution  of  your  studies  in  History  and 
other  branches  of  general  knowledge,  but  above  all,  in  the  study  of  the  Holy 

C3 


34  MISSIONABT  MAOAZINB 

Scriptures.  It  is  generally  thonglit  that  the  late  Cofmmissioner  of  Mjsore^ 
Sir  Mark  Gubbon,  was  opposed  to  the  stady  of  the  Bible  by  the  natires  of 
this  coontxy,  but  this  is  a  mistake.  He  more  than  once  said  to  me,  **  I  woold 
put  a  Bible  into  the  hands  of  every  man  in  India,  and  tell  him  this  book  faM 
made  us  what  we  are."  Now  this  precious  blessing  you  possess.  The  Biible 
is  in  your  hands.  But  remember  that  it  is  not  guj£cient  to  have  that  Bible; 
it  must  be  thoroughly  studied.  There  is  no  getting  on  in  any  brandi  of 
learning  without  labour.  So  if  you  would  know  what  the  Bible  teaches,  aad 
what  Ohristiamty  really  is,  you  must  bring  to  this  subject  the  whole  force  of 
your  understanding.  ftecoUect,  however,  HkeX  no  one  can  obtain  a  saving 
knowledge  of  the  Bible  by  the  intellect  alcHxe.  Man  by  his  fall  has  lost  the 
power  of  rightly  compr^ending  spiritual  truth  without  Divine  aid.  God 
himself  must  remove  the  darkness  of  the  heart  just  as  Christ  took  away  the 
film  from  the  eyes  of  the  blind  man.  Ask  Him  to  do  this  and  He  wiU  not 
turn  a  deaf  ear  to  your  prayer.  Further,  be  humble.  Ejiow  yonrselvea.  Do 
not  be  insensible  to  the  wickedness  of  your  own  hearts,  and  of  your  imwor- 
thiness  to  receive  anything  from  the  Lord.  Plead  that  name,  the  name  of 
JesuS)  through  whom  alone  all  spritual  blessings  flow  to  guilty  man. 

"  '  Finally,  let  me  press  upon  you  the  necessity  of  being  in  earnest  in 
seeking  preparation  for  another  world.  I  stand  here  as  an  individual  <m  a 
Christian  platform,  and  not  as  a  Grovemment  officer  in  a  Gk>venmient  School, 
and  therefore  I  feel  at  liberty  to  say  here  in  my  personal  character  that  which 
I  should  abstain  from  saying  there  in  my  official  capacity.  Let  me  then,  with 
all  earnestness,  entreat  you  to  remember  that  there  is  a  heaven,  and  that 
there  is  a  hell,  and  that  for  the  one  or  the  other  you  are  now  preparing.  Let 
me  beseech  you  to  ponder  well  the  solemnities  of  etemiiy,  and  to  resolve  to 
walk  in  the  path  which  your  consciences  tell  you  to  be  the  right  path.  If  you 
feel  that  you  are  in  error,  determine  that,  come  what  may,  in  God's  stren^gth 
you  will  abandon  that  error,  and  rather  die  than  renounce  what  you  know  to 
he  the  truth.' 

'*  To  the  above  excellent  and  fedthful  address  Mr.  Bice  added  a  few  words 
of  thanks  to  the  chairman,  and  of  admonition  to  the  scholars  to  attend  to 
the  advice  which  had  just  been  given  them.  Prizes  w^re  then  distributed  to 
those  who  had  m^ted  them,  and  the  proceedings  were  closed  with  prayer 
by  the  Bev.  S.  Wright,  of  the  Church  of  Scotland."

KUEUMAN — MISSION   SCHOOLS. 

"Wb  have  been  favoured  with  the  following  interesting  communication  from 
the  pen  of  Miss  Moffat.  The  letter  itself  explains  the  occasion  on  which 
it  was  written.  Some  kind  Christian  friends  at  Birkenhead  sought  to  render 
their  assistance  to  our  excellent  and  devoted  friend  Mrs.  Moflat  and  her 
daughter,  in  their  scholastic  laboiirs^  by  forwarding  a  liberal  supply  of 
articles  of  clothing,  books,  &c.,  as  rewards  and  encouragements  to  the 
Bechuana  children  who  are  taught  in  their  schools^    This  account^  while  it

erinces  the  diligence  and  perseverance  of  the  kind  teachersi  shows  no  less  the 
respect  and  gratitude  of  their  pupils.  There  must  indeed  be  many  dif&culties 
and  discouragements  in  the  work  of  teaching  these  youthful  Africans;  arising 
from  ihmr  yery  limited  adYantages,  and  the  tmavoidable  irregularityi 
especially  in  certain  seasons,  of  their  attendance  at  school.  ^Nevertheless, 
there  is  much  to  repay  the  services  of  their  kind  and  self-denying  friends ; 
and  the  scene  exhibited  on  the  annual  feast-day  would  have  been  attractive 
and  delightful  to  many  a  labourer  at  home.  "We  hope  Miss  Moffat  will  repay 
the  kindness  of  her  generous  benefactors,  who  thus  render  their  assistance  in 
her  labour  of  love,  by  frequently  giving  them  a  letter  as  full  of  interest  as 
ihat  we  now  insert : — 

"  Kuruman,  South  Africa,  August,  11th  1864. 

ACKNOWLEDGMENT  OF  PBESENTS. 

"  My  deab  Madam, — ^I  sincerely  regret  that  your  note  of  April  last  year, 
accompanying  a  box  of  most  useful  and  acceptable  articles,  should  have 
remained  so  long  unanswered.  Engagements,  many  and  various,  have  so 
occupied  our  time  since  the  box  arrived,  that  we  have  been  unable  to  write 
before  this,  although  it  is  six  months  ago.  My  mother  begs  you  to  excuse 
her  writing  herself,  but  sends  her  warmest  thanks  for  your  kindness,  and 
that  of  the  Birkenhead  ladies  associated  with  you. 

"  We  shall  find  good  use  for  everything  you  have  sent  us,  and  have  already 
distributed  a  few  of  the  smaller  thii^gs.  As  Bechuanas  are  not  clever  at 
washing  and  getting  up  muslins,  and  are  vety  clever  at  making  them  dirty, 
we  intend  to  keep  the  pretty  shawls  you  have  sent,  to  give  to  brides  who 
may  be  deserving  of  the  distinction.  It  is  quite  customary  for  the  bride  and 
bridesmaids  to  be  arrayed  in  white,  their  dresses  being  generally  trimmed 
with  as  much  colotired  braid  as  they  can  muster ;  therefore,  the  shawls  will 
come  in  admirably  for  this  purpose. 

"  The  Garibaldi  jackets  are  also  very  acceptable,  and  will,  I  expect,  give 
great  satisfaction  to  the  children  who  are  so  ^deserving  as  to  receive  them. 
The  hoods  we  are  giving  to  old  women  whose  heads  feel  the  effects  of  age. 
They  are  very  hardy  people,  from  being  so  imaccustomed  to  dress ;  but  old 
women  often  apply  for  something  to  keep  their  heads  warm,  and  have  thank- 
fully accepted  such  hoods.  Handkerchiefs  never  come  amiss,  and  we  were 
very  glad  of  the  large  number  you  sent.  The  sewing  materials  are  also  most 
acceptable,  and  we  quite  appreciate  the  quality  of  those  you  sent.  The  slates 
we  are  very  glad  of;  for,  though  we  have  a  very  large  stock  here,  those  you 
have  sent  ai'e  so  convenient  in  size,  and  comparatively  light  carriage,  that  I 
set  them  aside  at  once  for  the  interior  Mission,  and  some  have  already  gone  on 
thither.  The  stationery  of  all  kinds  we  are  very  thankful  for,  and  find  plenty 
of  use  for  it,  having  a  pretty  good  number  of  writers  in  the  school.  The 
looking-glasses,  of  which  none  were  broken,  mamma  is  going  to  give  as  a 
kind  of  wedding-p*e8ent  to  newly-married  persons,  as  an  encouragement  to 
civilization.  She  generally  gives  a  bride  a  bag  with  a  few  sewing  materials, 
with  the  same  object,  and  for  this  purpose  we  shall  use  your  work-bags.  Two 
or  three  we  have  ali'eady  given  away  to  native  teachers'  wives.    The  shirts 


36  MISSIONARY  MA6AZ1NB 

are  veiry  acceptable,  and  'we  shall  find  good  use  for  the  'women's  and  children's 
gowns,  either  here  or  in  the  interior.  On  this  place  and  neighbouring  stations 
the  people  imitate,  as  nearly  as  they  can,  European  fioshions,  and  as  a  whole 
make  their  dresses  very  well  indeed,  choosing  generally  prints  of  small  and 
neat  patterns,  and  they  are  not  so  fond  of  large,  showy  patterns  as  is  generally 
thought,  though  they  like  bright  colours ;  therefore,  should  we  find  the  good 
and  well-made  gowns  you  have  sent  more  suitable  for  the  interior  taste,  you 
will  not  object  to  our  thus  using  them.  The  only  things  injured  were  three 
or  four  transparent  slates,  and  it  was  wonderful  that  that  was  all:  with  these 
our  missionary  children  will  be  well  pleased.  The  metal  spoons  and  plates 
will  come  in  usefully ;  and,  as  I  think  you  would  be  interested  to  hear  of  the 
way  in  which  the  knives,  dolls,  and  handkerchiefs  were  disposed  of,  I  will 
give  you  some  little  account  of  our  school  feast. 

JUVBNILB   BNTBETAINMENT. 

"  We  generally  give  the  children  this  treat  during  this  month,  and  it  is  a 
joyful  day  to  them,  and  perhaps  not  less  to  those  who  are  the  instruments  of 
this  ei^oyment.  We  have  a  very  nice  school-house,  but  it  is  not  large  enough 
to  accommodate  children  and  visitors  for  the  occasion,  so  we  have  them  in  the 
•  church,  which  is  a  fine  building  for  this  part  of  the  world.  The  children  are 
seated  according  to  their  dzes,  a  pathway  separating  between  the  boys  and 
girls.  The  parents  sit  on  either  sids,  where  they  can  have  a  g^od  view  of 
their  children.  The  tables  are  placed  in  the  middle,  and  the  fsu-e  consists  of 
buns,  about  the  size  of  a  penny  loaf,  made  rather  richer  than  ordinary  bread 
by  the  addition  of  sugar,  &c.,  and  tea,  sweetened  till  it  is  almost  syrup.  The 
milk  is  provided  by  the  children  themselves,  each  one  bringing  his  or  her 
contribution  on  the  morning  of  the  day ;  so  that  all  these  drops  make  a  great 
quantity.  Each  child  is  provided,  a  day  or  two  before,  with  a  small  piece  of 
soap,  in  order  that  they  may  come  dean  and  decent.  They  know  by  the  sun 
the  time  to  be  ready,  and  one  touch  of  the  bell  is  sufficient  to  make  them  all 
appear  in  five  minutes.  All  having  entered,  we  begin  with  singing;  and  as  it 
is  only  two  or  three  weeks  since  this  year's  treat,  I  may  as  well  tell  you 
about  itf  as  a  specimen.  We  sang  a  new  hymn  which  my  father  has  lately 
translated  from  *  Jesus  high  in  Glory,'  out  of  Ourwen's  hymn-book.  Our 
children  sing  sweetly,  and  they  sang  it  beautifully.  Mr.  McKenzie,  who  had 
arrived  unexpectedly  £fom  the  interior  a  few  days  before,  gave  a  short  address 
and  offered  prayer,  after  which  tea  was  poured  out  by  Mrs.  McKenzie,  Miss 
Ashton,  and  myself,  and  carried  round  on  trays  by  about  six  young  men  and 
women,  who  are  connected  with  either  day  or  Sunday  school.  The  buns  were 
soon  distributed  in  the  same  way.  When  the  children  were  all  supplied  the 
parents  were  waited  upon,  each  receiving  a  large  cup  of  tea  and  a  bun.  This 
business  over,  we  proceeded  to  distribute  the  gifts,  for  most  of  which  we  have 
to  thank  you  this  year.  A  few  received  hymn-books — ^those  who  we  knew  to 
be  without  them.  Handkerchiefs  were  given  to  all  the  rest  of  the  girls, 
except  the  twenty  youngest,  who  were  highly  delighted*  with  the  dolls.  I 
am  sure  those  who  dressed  them  so  tastefully  would  have  eiyoyed  the 
sight  of  those  sparkling  eyes !  Nor  were  those  who  received  handkerchiefis 
less  delighted.  The  knives  you  sent  were  given  to  the  elder  boys,  and  the 
eyes  of  the  little  girls  could  not  be  brighter  than  those  of  the  boys  when  they 


POB  FEBRUAKT,    1865.  87 

reeeiTed  their  portion.  To  the  younger  lads  we  gave  inferior  knives,  and  to 
the  twenty  youngest  little  harmonicas.  We  exclude  no  children  from  the 
fiast,  but  any  one  whoever  enters  school  at  aU  may  come ;  but  those  only 
receiye  presents  who  are  regular  attendants,  and  'tis  their  parents  ofihf  who 
are  allowed  to  enter.  This  somewhat  exciting  work  completed,  dates  were 
handed  round — inferior  things,  of  course,  but  very  good  in  their  eyes ;  and 
then  oranges,  which  grow  plentifully  in  the  Mission  gardens.  All  this  over, 
oiler  that  we  sang  a  short  children's  hymn  to  the  tune  of '  From  Greenland's 
icy  Mountains,'  and  they  then  dispersed,  our  school  dismission  song  being  kept 
up  till  all  were  out.  In  the  evening  they  were  assembled  again,  and  a  great 
many  besides  children,  to  see  the  magic  lantern,  an  unfisuling  source  of  enjoy- 
ment and  fun.  Thus  the  day  closed  in,  many  little  hearts  doubtless  longing 
for  next  year's  treat.  The  children  behaved  very  well,  quite  as  well,  I  think,  as 
any  similar  assemblage  of  English  children  would  do,  and  the  number  present 
must  have  been  from  150  to  200. 

COITB8B  OF  TRAINING  IN  THE   SCHOOLS. 

"  The  number  of  regular  attendants  at  school  is  about  140,  but  not 
more  than  half  of  these  cofne  every  day,  even  at  this  season  of  the  year, 
which  is  the  best  for  schools.  The  lads,  with  few  exceptions,  are  herds,  and 
thus  generally  come  alternate  days,  and  the  home  occupation  of  the  girls 
causes  many  of  them  to  come  only  evexy  other  day,  and  sometimes  less.  But 
I  cannot  complain  of  the  numbers  at  present,  as  the  average  attendance  must 
be  110  or  120.  We  have  school  during  the  whole  forenoon,  for  three  hours 
and  a  half.  Beading  and  writing  are,  of  course,  the  chief  things  taught. 
Arithmetic  we  also  teach ;  but  it  is  rather  difficult,  as  they  are  so  unaccustomed 
to  large  numbers  of  anything,^  that  numeration  is  rather  hard  for  them  to 
comprehend.  However,  they  are  getting  on.  About  fifteen  are  doing  sums 
in  the  four  simple  rules,  and  they  reckon  pretty  well ;  but  it  is  difficult  to 
make  them  apply  anything.  The  same  with  reading.  They  will  learn  quickly 
to  read  well,  but  care  nothing  for  what  they  read ;  thus  we  have  great  diffi- 
culty to  get  them  to  remember  and  think  about  what  they  have  read.  They 
sing  well.  A  kind  friend  in  England  presented  the  station  with  a  harmonium 
six  years  ago,  and  it  has  been  the  means  of  improving  the  singing  very  much. 
We  have  many  children's  hymns  translated,  for  which  we  have  to  be  thankful 
to  papa  and  others ;  such  as, '  There  is  a  Happy  Land,' '  Around  the  Throne,' 
*  Sweet  Spices,'  *  Jesus  we  love  to  meet,'  *  I'm  a  Little  Pilgfrim,'  and  *  I  want  to 
be  like  Jesus.'  Many  of  the  people  have  beautiful  voices ;  but  their  great 
fault  is  corrupting  tunes,  and  it  is  very  hard  to  prevent  even  the  children. 
We  hold  sewing  school  twice  a  week  of  an  afternoon,  and  there  are  many  who 
can  work  very  neatly.  On  Sundays  there  are  usually  three  services,  besides 
morning  and  afternoon  school,  and  these  are  generally  well  attended,  although 
the  corn-watching  in  the  summer  and  ostrich-hunting  in  winter  thins  the 
congregation  much. 

OBNBBAL  ASPECT  OF  THE  MISSION. 

*'  I  am  sorry  to  say  that  the  present  state  of  the  church  and  people 
here  is  discouraging,  but  we  earnestly  pray  and  hope  that  brighter  days 
are  in  store.    Much  has  been  done,  and  great  is  the  change  since  my 


38  KSaSlOKAllY  MAGAZINE 

parents  came  here  first ;  bat  at  present  there  is  not  the  adyance  in  intelli- 
gence  and  the  pursuit  of  knowledge  that  is  to  be  desired.  At  the  same 
time  there  are  some  good  signs,  and  the  demand  for  books  is  ever  on  the  in- 
erease.  Besides  the  Bible  and  two  hjmn  books,  we  have  translations  c± 
*  Line  upon  line,' '  Pilgrim's  Progress/  '  Gome  to  Jesus,'  and  an  outline  of 
geography.  Papa  is  now  completing  the  revision  of  the  New  Testament, 
and  we  hope  ere  very  long  to  have  the  whole  Bible  bound  in  one  Tolume. 
Hitherto,  it  has  been  in  three.  At  present,  papa  is  the  sole  missionaiy  on 
this  station.  He  is  wonderful  for  his  age,  and,  when  well,  is  as  brisk  as  a 
young  man ;  but  we  are  anxious  for  reinforcements,  and  hope  some  day  to  see 
the  two  new  missionaries  promised.  Mamma  cannot  take  a  very  active  part 
in  direct  mission  work  now,  but  as  long  as  she  has  any  strength  at  all  she 
will  do  what  she  can.  She  is  hearty,  considering  her  age  and  the  life  she  has 
had  in  this  climate,  and  her  care  for  this  and  other  Missi<ms  is  increasing. 

NOTICES  OF  THE  MATEBELB  AND  BAMANGWATO  MISSIONS. 

"  Our  friends  at  the  Matebele  have  but  little  encouragement  as  yet ;  for, 
though  their  hearts  are  cheered  by  seeing  the  people's  confidence  in  them 
ever  increasing,  there  are  no  signs  of  the  work  of  the  Spirit  in  these  interest- 
ing i>eople. 

"  The  old  deq;>otic  monarch  discourages  aU  real  learning  on  the  part  of  his 
people,  although  fond  of  the  missionaries  and  giving  them  full  permission  to 
teach  and  preach.  But  we  earnestly  hope  that  ere  long  they  may  have  their 
hearts  cheered  by  seeing  seed  springing  up  where  they  now  think  it  falls  on 
stony  ground.  It  is  now  nearly  three  years  since  the  three  missionaries, 
Messrs.  Thcnnas,  Sykes,  and  J.  S.  Moffat,  first  went  there.  The  minds  as  well 
as  bodies  of  the  people  are  ruled  as  with  a  rod  of  iron  by  Moselekatse,  and  no 
(me  dare  learn  to  read,  because  they  know  it  to  be  displeasing  to  him,  although 
he  does  not  publicly  prevent  them.  At  the  Bamangwato,  a  large  tribe  midway 
between  here  and  the  Matebele,  there  is  a  very  promising  field,  and  Messrs. 
McKenzie  and  Price  labour  there  at  present,  and  meet  with  very  much 
encouragement.  For  though  the  c^d  chief  Sekhomi  is  qtdte  a  heathen,  his 
two  eldest  soira  are  real  Christians,  and  their  influence  in  the  tribe  is  very 
great.  They  find  many  and  willing  learners  there,  for  all  are  free  to  learn. 
But  it  is  still  a  strongh(dd  of  heathenism.  The  Bamangwato  is  one,  and  the 
Matebele  two  months'  journey  from  Kuruman ;  and  opportunities  frx)m  the 
latter  place  are  few  and  far  between.  It  is  now  nearly  seven  months  since 
their  last  date,  while  they  had  then  been  some  months  without  letters,  and, 
before  they  received  any,  it  would  be  a  year  since  they  heard  of  a  single  friend. 
We  anxiously  look  for  news  from  them,  but  can  expect  none  for  several 
months.    From  and  to  the  Bamangwato  opportunities  are  more  frequent. 

CONCLITDINa  BBMABK8. 

"  But  I  must  be  drawing  to  a  close,  and  hope  I  have  not  wearied  you  with 
the  details  as  to  the  use  we  make  of  your  kind  gifts.  We  earnestly  hope  that 
our  dear  children  may  grow  up  a  wiser  and  better  generation  than  the  present. 
But  how  truly  powerless  are  we,  even  though  doing  all  we  can  to  plough  ihe 
soil  and  sow  the  seed,  if  Qod  withhold  the  blessing !  They  are  persevering  in 
learning  anything  which  they  can  do  meohanicaUy,  like  reading,  writing,  and

needlework ;  but  I  long  to  see  more  real  e«nieet  desire  to  grow  in  knowledge 
and  a  deeper  interest  and  ooncem  for  their  eternal  wel&re.  It  is  alwajs 
cheering  to  ns  to  bear  in  mind  that  we,  and  those  among  whom  we  labour, 
are  remembered  at  the  throne  of  grace  by  Christian  friends  in  England,  for 
we  believe  that  their  prayers  will  in  due  time  be  answered. 

'*  Papa  and  mamma  join  in  Christian  regards  to  yourself  and  the  ladies  of 
your  sewing-party,  and  send  many  thanks  for  your  united  kindness;  and, 
hoping  you  will  excuse  the  long  delay  in  answering  your  kind  note,

DECEASE  OF  MISSIONARIES. 

In  recent  numbers  of  our  periodical  we  have  had  occasion  to  deplore  the 
successiYe  inroads  which  death  has  made  in  the  missionary  oirde ;  and  on 
the  present  occasion  it  is  our  painfol  duty  to  record  the  removal  of  not  fewer 
than/oMr  other  valued  agents  of  the  Society,  most  of  them  in  the  prime  of 
life,  and  labouring  in  widely  distant  portions  of  the  field,  viz.,  Mrs.  Gbego- 
xowsxi,  wife  of  Eev.  R.  T.  Gregorowski,  of  Somerset,  South  Africa ;  Mrs. 
3£acoowan,  wife  of  Eev.  John  Macgowan,  of  Amoy,  China;  Eev.  P.  Goold

DEATH  OF  MES.  GEEGOEOWSKI. 

"With  respect  to  the  first  name  on  this  SorrowM  roll  of  departed  friends, 
Mrs.  Gregokowski,  who,  with  her  husband,  had  been  for  years  associated  with 
the  Missions  in  South  Africa,  after  an  illness  of  many  months'  duration  was 
called  to  her  rest  on  the  21st  Sep^mber  ult,  leaving  her  husband  and  a 
nmnsioas  £Euaily  of  children  to  regret  their  irreparable  loss.

BAST,  SOUTH  AFBICA,  NOV.  12tH,  1864. 

"  My  household  has  been  deeply  aMcted  this  year.  Mrs,  Gregorowski  has 
left  us.  She  had  suffered  from  a  chest  complaint  for  more  than  a  year,  and 
died  on  the  21st  of  September.  I  am  left  behind  with  twelve  children,  of 
whom  nine  are  yet  at  home." 

DEATH  OF  MES.  MACGOWAN. 

Mis. '  MACGOWAir  sailed  with  her  husband  for  China  in  October  1859, 
and,  arriving  at  Shanghae,  their  appointed  station,  they  both  devoted 
themselves  with  exemplary  zeal  to  the  work  assigned  to  them ;  but  Mrs.  M.'s 


40  MISSIONARY  MA6AZTNB 

health  having  at  length  exhibited  evident  symptome  of  decline,  her  hnsband 
was  induced,  under  medical  advice,  to  remove  her  to  Amoy,  in  the  hope  that 
the  climate  of  that  station  might  be  better  adapted  for  her  constitution.  This 
change  took  place  in  the  summer  of  1863,  and  at  Amoy  our  friends  continued 
to  reside  until  the  beginning  of  September  last,  Mr.  Macgowan  taking  an 
active  part  in  the  duties  of  that  Mission.  But  the  benefit  derived  to  Mrs.  M.'s 
health  from  the  more  genial  climate  was  only  temporary,  and,  having  under- 
gone a  serious  relapse,  her  instant  removal  from  China  was  deemed  necessary; 
and  accordingly,  at  the  last-mentioned  date,  Mr.  and  Mrs.  M.  took  ship  for 
England,  m'd  New  York.  But  the  sufferer  was  unable  to  sustain  the  hard- 
ships of  the  voyage,  and  she  died  at  sea  on  the  29th  October  ult.,  ^bout  three 
weeks  after  leaving  Anjer.  Our  excellent  young  friend  departed  out  of  Ufe 
full  of  that  peace  which  passeth  understanding. 

LETTEB    FROM    BBV.  J.  MACaOWAN,    DATED    BESaEN    POINT,    NEW    TOBK, 

JANUABY  2nd,  1865. 

«  My  deab  Db.  Tidman, — I  am  sorry  to  say  that  I  have  very  sad  news 
to  give  you.  My  dear  wife  died  at  sea  on  the  29th  of  October,  about  three 
weeks  after  leaving  Ai^jer.  We  had  rather  a  tedious  passage  down  the 
China  Sea,  which  tried  her  very  much,  and  after  getting  into  the  Indian 
Ocean  she  began  to  sink  very  rapidly.  Her  last  end  was  a  very  peaceful  and 
a  happy  one.  She  rejoiced  in  the  prospect  of  being  with  C^st.  Not  a 
single  doubt  or  fear  disturbed  the  serenity  of  her  last  moments  on  earth,  but 
her  faith  appeared  to  enlarge  as  her  life  ebbed  away.  Her  death  made  a  very 
great  impression  on  all  on  board,  and  two  or  three  date  the  commencement 
of  their  spiritual  life  from  that  event.  I  have  been  greatly  comforted  by  the 
thought  that  what  was  so  grievous  to  me  has  been  the  blessed  means  of 
adding  even  one  soul  to  the  number  of  God's  people.

comfortable.

DEATH  OF  BEY.  P.  GOOLD  BIRD. 

So  recently  as  October  last  we  announced  the  death  of  Mrs.  Bird,  of 
Samoa,  the  particulars  of  which  were  furnished  by  her  surviving  husband,  and 
it  is  now  our  sad  duty  to  mention  that  Mr.  B.  himself  has  since  been 
numbered  with  the  dead.  It  is  little  more  than  four  years  since  our  beloved 
friends  left  their  native  country ;  and  from  the  time  of  his  arrival  at  Samoa 
until  his  last  fatal  iUness,  Mr.  B.  had  devoted  1  i  uself  with  the  most  dgoal 
zeal  and  energy  to  the  promolion  of  the  cause  of  Christ.  Erom  the  time  of 
his  lamented  wife's  death,  in  April  last,  littla  or  no  hope  was  entertained  of 
Mr.  Bird's  recovery,  and  on  the  22nd  of  the  followix^  AugOflyM^eetty  Wl 
asleep  in  Jesus.  ^

EXTRACT    OF    LETTER    FROM    REV.    H.    NISBET,    DATED    MALUA,     UPOLT7, 
SAMOA,  AUaUBT  24fTH,  1864. 

"  Previous  comnmnications  will  in  some  measure  have  prepared  you  to  hear 
that  our  dear  young  brother,  Bird,  has  Mien  asleep  in  Jesus.  I  am  sorry 
that  the  present  opportunity  is  so  hurried  that  it  precludes  me  from  doing 
much  more  than  simply  intimate  to  you  the  £Bu;t  that  he  was  taken  to  his 
rest  on  Monday  afternoon,  the  22nd  August,  and  we  laid  his  body  in  the 
Institution  burying-ground  yesterday,  in  the  sure  and  certain  hope  of  a 
glorious  resurrection.  Through  circumstances  in  the  arrangements  of  Pro- 
vidence, it  so  happened  that  we  had  present  at  the  interment  the  greater 
number  of  the  members  of  the  Mission,  and  also  our  friend  Consul  Williams. 

"  Tou  are  aware  that  our  brother  had  been  seriously  ill  ever  since  the  end 
of  November  last.  In  the  beginning  of  April  he  returned  from  Nine,  after 
having  there  buried  Mrs.  Bird.  When  he  arrived,  it  was  but  too  evident  that 
he  had  only  returned  to  die.  During  all  the  intervening  months  he  has  been 
with  us  at  Malua,  gradually  declining  and  wasting  away,  and  sometimes 
suffering  severely.  It  has  been  the  duty,  and  at  the  same  time  the  privilege 
of  Mrs.  Nisbet  and  myself  to  nurse  him,  and  watch  over  his  declining  and 
dying  hours.  It  was  gratifying  and  satisfeictory  to  witness  his  patient 
waiting  all  the  appointed  days  till  his  change  should  come,  leaving  it  quietly 
and  resignedly  in  the  hands  of  his  Father  in  heaven.  During  some  seasons 
of  his  weakness  and  sufferings  he  felt  that  the  enemy  of  souls  was  trying  hard 
to  buffet  him,  and  sift  him  as  wheat,  if  he  might  succeed  in  removing  his 
hold  from  the  Rock  and  Refuge.  But  grace  gained  the  victory,  and  he  could 
say  to  Mrs.  Nisbet,  on  the  very  day  of  his  death,  while  speaking  of  the  love 
of  Jesus, '  I  am  resting  in  His  love.*  A  few  hours  afterwards  death  set  hds 
seal  upon  him,  and  he  literally  breathed  out  his  spirit,  so  very  like  '  failing 
asleep  in  Jesus.'  He  had  turned  and  settled  himself  as  if  to  take  a  little 
rest,  when  he  quietly  breathed  his  last,  so  gently  came  his  dismissal  from 
weakness  and  suffering.  And  we  said,  'For  him  to  die  was  gain.'  Thus 
early  has  the  Lord  seen  fit  to  take  to  himself  His  yoimg  servant,  for  whom 
we  had  hoped  many  years  of  labour  in  the  Mission  field  were  appointed,  and 
from  whose  energy  and  zeal  we  might  have  expected  much  efficient  service. 
But  the  Lord  is  teaching  us,  that  'His  ways  are  not  our  ways,  nor  His 
thoughts  our  thoughts.'  What  can  we  say  but  that,  although  '  clouds  and 
darkness  are  round  about  Him,'  yet  all  His  ways  are  right  P" 

DEATH  OF  REV.  JOHN  JOLL  DENNIS. 

Mr.  Denies,  of  the  Travancore  Mission,  has  been  cut  down  in  the 
prime  of  life,  and  in  the  midst  of  a  career  of  valuable  labour.  It  is  nearly 
ten  years  since  our  esteemed  friend  first  proceeded  to  India.  Accompanied 
by  Mrs,  D.,  he  recently  paid  a  short  visit  to  England,  but,  on  account  of  the 
pressing  exigencies  of  the  Mission,  he  returned  to  the  field  of  labour  alone, 
and,  while  prosecuting  his  various  labours  with  his  customary  zeal  and 
assiduity,  he  was  suddenly  called  to  his  rest  and  reward  on  the  15  th 
November  last,  leaving  his  sorrowing  family  in  this  countrv  io  J^m^t  their 
affiictive  bereavement.  ^  ^

LETTER  FBOM  BEY.  JAMES  DTTTHIE,  DATED  NAOEBCOIL, 
KOTEMBEB  19t;h,  1864. 

"  My  dear  Dr.  Tidmait — ^You  would  learn  from  the  note  whicli  I  forwarded 
by  last  mail,  and  which  will  hare  been  receiyed  by  yon  ere  this  reaches,  that  my 
ooUeagne  Mr.  Dennis  had  not  been  feelingweU;  bnt,  nothingrery  serious  appear- 
ing to  ns  at  the  time  to  be  the  matter,  I  expressed  the  hope  Uiat  he  would 
speedily  recover  his  wonted  robust  health  and  strength,  and  be  enabled  to 
resume  his  accustomed  duties  in  the  Mission.  Little  did  I  anticipate  the  event 
which  since  then,  alas !  has  transpired,  and  which  has  cast  a  gloom  over  our 
spirits  here,  deprived  the  Society  of  a  devoted  and  valued  missionary,  and 
myself  of  a  steady  and  attached  friend  ever  since  the  date  of  my  <x>nnection 
with  the  Society,  upwards  of  eleven  years  ago.  It  is  now  my  painful  duty  to 
communicate  to  you  the  mournful  intdHgenee  of  the  death  of  our  lamented 
brother,  which  took  place  here  at  two  o'clock  on  the  morning  <^  the  15th 
instant.  None  of  us  were  prepared  for  the  sad  event,  nor  was  our  dear  brother 
himself  aware  that  his  end  was  so  near.  The  Mast^  came  at  an  hour  when 
we  looked  not  for  Him.  Truly,  the  ways  of  the  Lord  are  not  our  ways !  The 
Mission  had  been  in  a  sufficiently  wesJc^ied  state  before  this ;  now  another 
labourer  has  been  called  hence,  the  burden  and  heat  of  the  day  has  to  be 
borne  by  a  feeble  few ;  who,  then,  of  all  God's  servants  who  read  this  brief 
notice  will  consecrate  himself  to  the  glorious  w(H*k  (^  Qod  in  this  land*  and 
volunteer  to  stand  in  the  breach  which  He  has  made  F 

"  A  few  particulars  regarding  our  departed  brother's  illness  and  death  I 
flhaQ  very  briefly  su|^y .  About  three  montiis  ago  Mr.  Dennis  first  complained 
of  slight  derangement  of  the  bow^ ;  but  no  <me  Hiought  much  of  it,  and  he 
himself  quite  believed  it  would  soon  disappear  with  a  little  care  as  to  diet.  A 
week  or  two  passed  without  much  change  either  tor  the  better  or  worse,  and, 
aj9  Mr.  and  Mrs.  WOkinsonof  Santhapooram  were  spending  their  school  vacation, 
at  our  Sanatarium  on  the  Asamboo,  he  joined  Hiem  there,  in  the  hope  that  a 
short  change  frx>m  the  low  country  to  the  cooler  climate  of  the  hills  would  do 
good.  The  weather,  however,  at  that  time  was  not  very  favoxffable ;  and,  fear- 
ing that  a  longer  stay  there  would  do  further  iryury,  he  returned  to  Kagercoil, 
weaker  than  when  he  left,  and  evidently  suffering  so  much  that  medical 
advice  and  attendance  became  neeessazy.  The  symptoms  gave  unmistakable 
evidence  that  dysentery  had  oommenoed,  and  Dr.  Lowe  lost  no  time  in  pre- 
scribing the  treatment  which  the  case  required.  The  attack  was  not  at  any 
stage  a  very  severe  one,  and  after  the  proper  medical  r^nedies  had  been 
administered,  it  gradually  yielded,  and  ultimately ,  quite  passed  off;  and 
although  it  left  him  weak  and  unable  for  work,  we  had  every  reason  to  hope 
that  he  would  soon  recover.  He  had,  in  fact,  got  so  much  better  that  he  was 
able  to  attend  the  Sangam  (half -yearly  Missionary  Meeting)  of  his  district, 
which  took  place  a  month  ago,  and  in  the  afternoon  of  that  day  he  left  us  for 
Muttam,  on  the  sea- side,  hoping  that  the  sea  air  and  bathing  there  would 
quite  restore  him  to  health  and  strength.  For  a  time  this  change  had  a  very 
beneficial  effect,  and  he  wrote  in  excellent  spirits  about  himself;  but  the  im- 
provement was  not  destined  to  last  long.  Diarrhcea  came  on,  and  after  a 
fortnight's  absence  he  returned  to  us,  better,  certainly,  than  when  he  went 
away,  but  not  sufSciemtly  recovered  to  be  able  for  work.  Active  measures 
were  taken  by  Dr.  Lowe  to  check  the  diarrhoea,  but  without  any  very  i

fkotory  resnltB,  till  after  the  appHcation  of  leeches,  when  it  quite  ceased. 
There  were  tministakable  indications,  howerer,  of  sab-acute  inflammation  of  the 
bowels  in  the  latter  stages  of  the  illness,  and  onr  medical  brother  was  most  nnre- 
mitting  in  his  endeayonrs  to  remove  this.  Everything  that  medical  skill  conld 
devise  was  resorted  to  for  the  pnrpoee  of  reducing  the  inflammation ;  and  though 
nltimately  we  were  not  without  our  fears  as  to  the  issue,  there  was  nothing, 
as  it  appeared  to  us,  to  indicate  anj  HMMiui^  danger  or  to  excite  alarm.  The 
evening  previous  to  his  death  Dr.  Lowe  and  mjself  were  both  in  attendance, 
aad  vrh&xi  we  left  him,  at  a  late  hour,  he  was  quite  quiet  and  feeling  ineUnatioR 
to  sleep.  This  was  about  eleven  o'clock ;  the  doctor  saw  him  again  shortly 
after,  when  he  said  he  had  ex^joyed  alittle  very  refreshing  sleep,  and  felt  much 
better.  Little  did  we  think  that  the  end  was  so  very  near  at  hand.  At  2  A.M. 
we  were  both  suddenly  summoned  to  the  room  where  he  lay,  and,  to  onr 
great  grief,  it  was  quite  evident  that  life  was  ebbing  f^sL  We  found  him 
unable  to  return  any  answer  to  our  inquiries — so  suddenly  had  the  change  come 
*-and  aU  we  could  do  was  to  turn  aside  and  commend  the  departing  spirit  of 
our  friaid  and  feUow-labourer  into  the  hands  of  Jesus.  Five  minutes  after- 
wards it  was  all  over ;  that  chamber  had  become  the  chamber  of  death ;  with- 
out the  slightest  movement,  and  apparently  without  suffering  the  least  degree 
of  pain,  he  calmly  and  peacefully  fell  asleep.  Previous  to  this  illness,  he  was 
one  of  the  strongest  in  our  Mission  circle,  and  enjoyed  the  best  of  health.  To 
all  human  appearance  he  was  better  able  to  witiistand  the  influence  of  this 
tiying  dimate  than  most  of  us.  He  has  been  cut  off  in  the  midst  of  his  jeaxu, 
and  usefulness,  and  strength,  and  great  is  the  loss  which  the  Mission  generally, 
and  the  people  of  this  station  in  particular,  have  thus  sustained. 

"  It  is  scarcely  necessaiy  for  me  to  allude  to  the  very  affecting  circumstance 
of  the  absence  in  England  of  her  upon  whom  the  blow  will  &R  heaviest,  and 
whose  is  the  nearest  concern  in  the  mournful  scenes  that  have  just  terminated 
here.  It  is  a  sore  affliction  that  has  befallen  his  beloved  wife  and  children, 
and  their  grief,  when  the  inteUigenee  reaches  them,  will  be  intensifLed  by  the 
thought  that  their  beloved  one  but  left  them  to  die  in  a  foreign  land,  and  that 
the  melancholy  satisfiM^tion  of  ministering  to  him  in  his  last  moments  has 
been  denied  them.  It  will  be  some  consolation  to  them  to  know  that  all  the 
kind  offices  that  friends  could  perform  have  been  discharged ;  it  will  be  greater 
to  reflect  that  he  has  found  his  last  resting-place  on  the  spot  where  he  spent 
the  nine  years  of  his  missionary  Ufe,  and  among  the  people  for  whom  he 
laboured  and  prayed  ;  greater  still,  I  doubt  not,  to  feel  that  it  was  the  will 
of  our  Heavenly  Eather  that  thus  it  should  be,  and  that  their  loss  is  his 
eternal  gain.  I  am  sure  I  utter  not  my  own  sentiments  only,  but  those  of 
every  one  in  our  Mission  circle  who  knows  Mrs.  Dennis,  when  I  very  earnestly 
commend  her  and  her  fatherless  children  to  the  kind  regard  of  the  Directors. 
I  pray  that  the  Lord  may  put  it  into  the  heart  of  many  to  befriend  and  help 
her  in  the  solitude  and  sorrow  of  this  great  bereavement. 

"  The  fdneral  was  attended  by  great  numbers  of  sorrowing  Christians,  and 
by  not  a  few  heathens  also,  in  token  of  respect  for  Mr.  Dennis;  the  solemn 
services  were  conducted  by  Mr.  Wilkinson  and  myself,  and  to-morrow  special 
sermons  will  (D.  Y.)  be  preached  in  our  spacious  chs^el  here  by  Mr.  Baylis, 
Dr.  Lowe,  and  myself.  Our  brother  rests  from  his  labours,  and  all  that  was 
mortal  of  him  reposes  securely  in  oar  quiet  grave-yard  till  the  resnrreotioB

I^TE   OPPBESSITE  llEASUTLBS    OF    THE    eOTEBNOK   OF  NEW  CALEDONIA   ON  THE 
ENGLTSH   MI88I0NABIES  AND   THE   NATITE   F&0TE8TANT   CHDEHSTIANS. 

OuB  readers  were  informed  in  our  last  number  that  a  memorial  had  been 
addressed  to  the  Emperor  of  the  French  on  the  subject  of  these  despotic  and 
injurious  proceedings,  signed  b^  noblemen  and  gentlemen  of  high  official 
position,  and  forwarded  through  the  French  Ambassador.  We  now  give  a 
copy  of  this  document,  together  with  the  reply  of  His  Majesty  the  Emperor. 

"  TO  HIS  IMFEBIAL   MAJESTY  NAPOLEON    III.,  EMFBBOB  OF  THE  FBBNOH. 

"London,  Jan.  13, 1865. 

"  May  it  flease  yotib  Majesty, — We,  the  undersigned,  with  feelings  of 
profound  respect,  beg  to  request  your  Mfgeety's  obliging  and  considerate 
attention  to  the  accompanying  statement  of  Protestant  miBsionary  opera- 
tions in  the  Loyalty  Islands,  South  Pacific,  and  the  suppression  of  these  labours 
by  M.  Guillain,  Governor  of  New  Caledonia,  in  the  month  of  June,  1864. 

"  Your  Majesty  needs  not  to  be  informed  that  the  benevolent  and  religious 
classes  of  our  countrymen  have  long  been  engaged  in  Christian  and  philan- 
thropic efforts,  with  a  view  to  extend  the  blessings  of  civilization  and  true 
religion  among  heathen  tribes  and  nations ;  and  we  confidently  assure  your 
Migesty  that  the  deepest  sjrmpathies  of  the  several  Protestant  Missionary 
Associations  of  Britain  have  been  intensely  excited  by  the  painful  facts  nar- 
rated in  the  statement  which  we  have  now  the  honour  to  submit. 

"  Many  of  the  most  successful  efforts  made  by  English  Protestant  mission- 
aries have  been  accomplished  among  the  debased  and  savage  islanders  of  the 
South  Pacific  ;  and  of  this  fact  the  past  and  present  condition  of  the  islands 
of  the  Loyalty  Group  supplies  abundant  evidence.  Twenty  years  since, 
before  Christian  teachers  visited  those  islands,  murder  and  cannibalism  were 
the  common  practices  of  the  natives ;  and  the  lives  of  strangers  who  ventured 
upon  their  shores  were  often  sacrificed  and  their  bodies  consumed.  But  now 
these  horrid  practices  are  of  rare  occurrence,  and  the  character  and  habits  of 
thousands  of  the  people  present  a  transformation  over  wluch  the  Christian 
phQanthropist  must  sincerely  rgoice.  ^'^'^^^^  '^ ^OOgLC

"  We  cannot,  therefore,  entertain  a  doubt  that  your  Majesty  will  share  in 
our  deep  regret  that  labours  so  highly  beneficial  shoold  be  prohibited  or 
restrained,  and  that  the  dimnterested  and  self-denying  men  by  whom  they 
have  been  accomplished,  should  be  deprived  of  the  pleasure  of  continuing  their 
works  of  mercy  for  the  further  improvement  of  the  islanders. 

"  We  are  able  confidently  to  assure  your  Majesty  that  the  reasons  assigned 
by  the  Governor  of  New  Caledonia  for  the  oppressive  measures  he  adopted  are 
mistaken  and  unfounded.  The  English  missionaries  were  accused  of  de- 
nationalizing the  native  Christians  of  Lifu  by  teaching  them  the  English 
rather  than  the  French  language ;  whereas  there  was,  probably,  not  a  single 
native  who  understood  a  word  of  En^sh,  the  missionaries  having  learnt  the 
language  of  the  people,  in  order  to  give  them  instruction  in  the  only  way  in 
which  it  was  practicable.  The  representation,  also,  that  the  missionaries  had 
encouraged  the  islanders  to  resist  the  French  authority  was  equally  unfounded, 
as  the  Governor  of  New  Caledonia  had  never  claimed  any  authority  in  Lifii  up 
to  the  period  when  these  hostile  proceedings  were  adopted. 

"  We  are  g^ad  to  know  that  the  measures  of  M.  Guillain  were  adopted  on 
his  own  responsibility,  and  that  they  require  your  Majesty's  sanction  to  give 
them  force  and  perpetuity,  because  we  feel  convinced,  fix>m  your  Majesty's 
well  known  attachment  to  the  great  principles  of  social  justice  and  religious 
freedom,  that  these  oppressive  restrictions  will  be  revoked,  and  that  the 
English  missionaries  will  be  allowed  as  heretofore  to  cany  on  their  peaceful 
and  beneficial  labours,  and,  together  with  the  native  Protestant  Christians,  to 
ei\joy  without  restriction  the  ministrations  and  ordinances  of  Christianity. 

"  We  beg  to  assure  your  Majesty  that  such  an  enlightened  and  generous 
exercise  of  your  Imperial  prerogative  will  be  gratefully  appreciated  by  all 
dasses  of  our  oountrymen,  and  by  none  more  highly  than  the  friends  of  Chris- 
tian Missions  whom  we  have  the  pleasure  to  repres^it. 
"  With  every  sentimait  of  profound  respect,  we  have  the  hcmour  to  be, 
"  Your  Mijesty's  most  faithful  servants,

TRAiraLATION. 

"  Tuileries,  24th  January,  1865. 
"Gbntlemen, — I  have  received  the  Memorial  which  you  adcbessed  to 
me  relative  to  the  measures  recently  taken  in  the  Loyalty  Islands  by  the 
Governor  of  New  Caledonia.  I  am  writing  to  Commandant  Guillazn  to  cen- 
sure any  measure  which  would  impose  a  restraint  upon  the  free  exercise  of 
your  nainistiy  in  those  distant  lands.  I  feel  assured  that^  far  from  raising  any 
difficulties  in  the  way  of  the  r^resentatives  of  French  authority,  the  Protest- 
ant Missiim,  as  weU  as  the  Catholic,  will  seek  to  diffuse  am<«ig  the  natives  of 
the  Archipdago  the  benefits  of  Christianity  and  civilisation. 

"  Beceive,  gentlemen,  i^e  assurance  of  my  distinguished  consideration. 

"  Napolbon.** 

We  feel  assured  that  the  friends  of  Missions  and  of  religious  freedom  will 
receiye  with  sincere  thankfulness  the  announcement  by  Bos  Majesty  Napoleon 
of  sentiments  so  truly  enlightened  and  just — sentiments  which  we  trust  his 
representatives  in  the  Loyalty  Islands  will  carry  out  in  their  integrity,  so  that 
our  mianonazies  and  their  people  may  henceforth  enjoy  the  freedom  and 
security  which  the  Emperor  intends  to  grant.  Above  all,  we  most  earnestly 
desire  that  the  friends  of  Missions  generally,  and  the  members  of  our  Society 
in  particular,  will  give  humble  and  hearty  thanks  to  Him  "  by  whom  kings 
reign  and  princes  decree  justice,"  that  He  has  brought  about  this  favourable 
and  peacefril  termination  to  the  unwise  and  oppressive  interference  by 
M.  GuLULor  with  the  happiness  and  prosperity  of  the  Mission  Churches. 

We  shall  not  fail,  by  the  first  post,  to  forward  to  our  brethren  in  the 
Loyalty  Islands,  now  labouring  under  such  painful  restrictions,  the  above 
gratifying  intelligence ;  and  we  doubt  not  that,  while  it  will  afford  them 
unepeakable  delight,  they  will  use  their  restored  liberty  in  the  spirit  of 
moderation  and  the  meekness  of  wisdom*  .    ^^^ ,  ^

52  MISSIONARY  MAGAZINE 

MADAGASCAR. 

We  have  been  gratified  during  the  past  month  with  an  interesting  and 
instructive  letter  addressed  to  the  Home  Secretary  by  the  Rev.  Robert  Tot, 
Tfho  has  been  labouring  in  the  capital  since  September,  1862,  and  has  there- 
fore witnessed  the  progress  of  the  Mission  from  the  time  of  its  re-establish- 
ment after  the  death  of  Queen  Ranavalona.  Mr.  Toy  is  the  Minister  of  the 
most  numerous  Native  Church  and  Congregation  in  the  city  of  Antai^ anabivo; 
and  in  the  following  letter  he  reports  his  labours  not  only  in  the  capital,  but 
among  the  villages  of  the  surrounding  country,  in  which  there  are  no  less 
than  fifteen  congregations  enjogring  his  superintendence.  The  writer  also 
confirms  the  general  statements  given  in  our  last  number  as  to  other  Churches 
in  the  capital,  with  the  state  of  the  Schools,  and  the  general  interests  both  of 
the  Mission  and  the  country.

8ECUBITIE8  BY  TBEATY  FOB  THE  FBOTECTION  OF  CHBISTIANITT  IN 

MADAOASGAB. 

"  Mr.  Pakenham,  our  Consul,  has  again  come  up  to  the  capital  with  a  view 
to  complete  the  English  treaty ;  but  the  altei-ations  required  by  the  Malagasy 
authorities  exceed  his  power  to  grant,  and  he  has  therefore  sent  it  home  to 
Earl  BusselL  Prom  what  I  have  learnt,  I  think  the  probability  is  that  it  will 
be  accepted  by  the  British  Government,  as,  except  in  two  or  three  points,  the 
alterations  are  very  unimportant.  I  think  that  the  article  respecting  OhriB- 
tianity  is,  on  the  whole,  all  that  we  can  desire.  In  addition,  however,  to 
Ambohimanga,  mentioned  before  as  being  closed  against  all  foreigners,  they 
now  wish  to  include  Ambohimanambola  and  Amparafaravato,  all  being  in  the 
same  district.  With  these  exceptions,  the  whole  counti-y  is  open  to  us ;  but  the 
Gk)vemment  will  undertake  to  insure  full  protection  only  in  such  places  as  are 
under  the  control  of  a  duly  authorized  governor.  The  principal  reason  for  this 
is,  that  they  hold  only  a  nominal  rule  over  a  great  portion  of  the  coxmtry.  As 
a  proof  of  this,  their  messengers  carrying  despatches  to  the  Governor  of  Fort 
Dauphin,  in  the  south,  are  obliged  to  perform  a  great  part  of  the  journey  by 
night,  in  order  to  pass  safely  through  the  tribes  occupying  the  intermediate 
country. 

The  clause  in  the  treaty  referring  to  all  places  of  worship  built  in  the  country 
is,  I  think,  as  favourable  as  we  can  well  expect,  and  is  certainly  as  much  as  they 
will  willingly  grant.  I  succeeded  in  getting  them  to  make  some  slight  alter* 
ation  in  the  wording,  so  as  to  insure  the  places  being  appropriated  to  the  special 
object]  for  which  they  should  be  built ;  but  they  insist  upon  their  being 
recognised  as  belonging  to  the  Queen,  whatever  money  may  be  expended 
upon  them.  They  will  allow  no  foreigner  to  hold  any  claim  for  any  lands 
whatever ;  and  the  late  affair  with  the  Lambert  Company  has  considerably 
increased  their  caution  in  this  respect.  They  are,  undoubtedly,  very  desirous 
of  concluding  the  treaty  with  England ;  but  they  are  most  suspicious  lest  they 
should  commit  themselves  in  any  way,  and  concede  anything  which  might

eyentaally  be  constmed  into  a  right  to  interfere  with  the  internal  affiEors  of  the 
country. 

PACIFIC  DISPOSITIONS  OF  THE  OOTBRNMSNT. 

"  Since  the  removal  of  the  late  Prime  Minister  considerable  improvement 
Las  taken  place  in  the  general  state  of  the  coontrj.  No  new  attempts  to  create 
a  revolntion  have  been  made,  and  no  fresh  rumours  respecting  the  resuscitation 
of  the  late  King  have  arisen.  It  is  now  generally  believed  that  the  previous 
ones  were  set  afloat  by  the  authorities  themselves,  for  the  purpose  of  dis- 
covering who  their  real  friends  were ;  at  all  events,  they  seem  to  have  been 
well  informed  from  the  first  in  reference  to  the  principal  parties  implicated. 
With  respect  to  the  parties  concerned  in  the  last  attempt  to  overthrow  the 
€k)vemment,  they  have  acted,  on  the  whole,  with  very  considerable  forbearance. 
lElxcept  in  the  case  of  eighteen  persons  put  to  death,  and  a  few  others  put  in 
chains,  a  free  pardon  has  been  granted  to  all,  and  those  in  concealment  have 
be^i  invited  to  return  in  good  Mth  to  their  homes — an  offer  which,  I  believe, 
all  have  availed  themselves  of.  Altogether,  I  believe  the  prospects  of  Chris* 
tianity  have  brightened  considerably  since  the  date  of  my  last  letter. 

STATE  AND   PROGRESS  OF  THE  MISSION. 

"  The  actual  increase  of  the  number  of  persons  who  attend  the  different 
places  of  worship  in  the  town  has  for  some  time  been  very  trifling ;  but,  of 
those  in  regular  attendance,  a  considerable  number  have  come  forward  during 
the  year  as  candidates  for  baptism  and  Church-fellowship.  Since  the  arrival 
of  the  new  missionaries  two  fresh  churches  have  been  opened,  but  their  con- 
gregations have  been  made  up  chiefly  from  the  other  chapels. 

**  With  respect  to  my  own  work,  everything  seems  going  on  as  satisfactorily 
as  I  could  wish.  Dming  the  year  we  have  put  up  a  good,  substantial  clay 
chapel,  much  larger,  and  in  every  respect  better,  than  the  old  one,  which, 
besides  being  too  small,  was  built  so  hastily  as  to  be  scarcely  safe  to  worship 
in  during  a  heavy  storm.  I  never  miss  a  month  without  baptizing  several. 
Last  Sunday  eighteen  were  baptized,  and  seven  more  have  already  given  their 
names  for  the  following  month.  The  number  of  members  now  on  the  church 
book  is  220,  and  upwards  of  thirty  are  waiting  to  be  admitted. 

"  In  addition  to  the  Church  at  Ambohipotsy,  I  have  now  under  my  care 
nine  country  Churches.  These  I  continue  to  visit  as  often  as  possible.  Our 
great  want,  with  reference  to  the  latter,  is  teachers  and  the  means  of  sup- 
porting them,  the  Churches  themselves  being  all  too  poor  to  do  so,  many  being 
slaves,  and  others  possessing  nothing  besides  a  little  ground  for  growing  rice. 
A  few  good  teachers  placed  in  some  of  the  country  towns  might  be  most 
advantageously  supported  by  the  Society.  They  would  carry  on  the  school 
during  the  week  days  and  preach  on  the  Sunday.  The  Churches,  in  some  cases, 
would  be  able  to  do  a  little  in  the  way  of  supplying  them  with  rice,  so  that  the 
exi)en8e  to  the  Society  need  in  no  case  exceed  a  dollar  and  a  half  or  two  dollars 
a  month.  With  a  number  of  weU-trained,  earnest  men  stationed  in  the 
districts  occupied  by  each  missionary,  to  whom  they  should  be  responsible  for 
the  efficient  discharge  of  their  duties,  a  great  accession  of  strength,  at  small 
cost,  would  be  acquired,  and  the  good  done,  I  am  satisfied,  would  be  incalculable. 
Unless,  too,  some  such  arrangement  be  made,  it  is  almost  useless  to  send  out

a  schoolmaster  qualified  to  traiXL  natiye  teachers,  as  the  mosief  spent  in  their 
education  would  be  in  most  cases  thrown  away.  There  is  not  a  congregatiGii 
in  the  capital  that  supports  a  teacher,  the  only  money  received  for  that  purpose 
being  the  pence  of  the  children,  which  scarcely  in  any  case  exceeds  three 
shillings  per  month.  If  anjrthing  is  efiSciently  done  in  the  country  towns  at 
present,  it  must  be  by  receiving  some  such  trifling  help  from  the  Society. 

"  I  still  continue  to  give  instniction  to  the  young  men  formerly  taught  by 
Mr.  Ellis,  and  am  in  hopes  that  the  time  spent  over  them  will  be  productire  of 
beneficial  results.  For  some  time  after  the  revolution  I  confined  them  exclu- 
sivdy  to  the  English  language,  but  I  am  now  doing  all  I  can  to  giro  them  a 
more  general  education.**

passages  will  afford  our  readers  pleasure : — 

''  One  of  the  largest  Churches  in  the  cax»tal  has  recently  taken  a  st^, 
the  most  important  that  any  Church  has  yet  taken,  tending  to  the  stability 
4Mid  permanency  of  Christianity  in  the  country.  They  have  agreed  t(>  provide 
«n  annual  stipend  adequate  to  the  necessities  of  their  two  Native  Pastors ; 
and  there  is  no  reason  to  doubt  either  that  they  will  fhlfil  their  agreement, 
or  that  otherChurches  win  follow  their  example. 

"  Increased  attention  has  been  given  to  the  Schools  in  connectian  with  the

have  been  erected  in  several,  and  others  are  in  progress.  At  Iuuty,  abotit

fitted  it  up  with  minister's  room  and  vestry ;  and,  though  large,  it  was,  on  the

repeatedly  visited  the  Christian  villages  in  the  northern  part  of  iHSesncA,  and 
hare  been  greatly  encouraged."

masters ;  but  our  missionariee  have  not  hitherto  felt  at  liberty  to  ordain  to 
the  pastoral  office  more  than  a  limited  number  of  these  native  brethren. 
They  have  "  laid  hands  suddenly  on  no  man,"  but  have  required  satisfactory 
grounds  for  confidence  in  the  established  character  and  Christian  gifts  of 
those  whom  they  have  ordained  to  the  ministry.  We  are  gratified  to  be 
able,  in  our  present  number,  to  report  the  ordination  of  two  such  native 
evangelists,  and  we  earnestly  hope  that  many  more,  after  a  proper  period  of 
probation,  may  hereafter  be  set  apart  to  the  pastoral  office,  with  the  same 
feelings  of  sads&ction  to  our  English  brethren  as  those  whose  ordination  is 
here  reported. 

''Benares,  November  2l8t,  1864. 

*'  Mt  deab  Bbother, — ^Enclosed  is  a  programme  of  the  services  which 
were  held  last  week  in  connection  with  this  Mission,  on  occasion  of  the  meeting 
of  the  District  Oommittee  in  Benares.  The  services  were  of  a  most  interesting 
character,  and  w^e  very  well  attended.  The  most  important  of  all,perha{>s, 
so  far  as  the  weil£Eure  of  the  Mission  is  concerned,  was  the  ordination  of  our 
senior  catechist,  Patbas.  The  Mission  chapel  was  well  filled ;  and  amongst 
the  congregation  were  the  Bevs.  Messrs.  Smith,  Leupolt,  Fuchs,  and  Stem,  of 
the  Church  Missions  of  Benares  and  Gnrmckpore,  whom  we  were  gratified  to 
see  present  on  such  a  solemn  and  interesting  occasion.  Most  of  them  wore 
acquainted  with  our  native  brother,  and  all  thought,  with  omrselves,  that,  in 
ordaining  him  to  the  ministry,  we  were  taking  a  right  and  proper  step.  I 
need  not  say  how  much  my  own  mind  had  been  exercised  on  the  sulject  finr 
months  previous  to  the  ordination ;  but  I  became  more  and  more  satisfied 
that  it  was  not  only  an  act  of  justice  to  Patras  that  he  should  be  ordained, 
hnt  that,  as  a  pastor,  his  influence  among  the  Christians,  and  the  people 
g«tterally,  would  be  greatly  increased.  The  first  part  of  the  service  was  in 
English,  and  was  commenced  by  Mr.  Blake  and  concluded  by  Mr.  Storrow; 
who  delivered  the  Introductory  Discourse.  After  this,  the  Hindustani  portien 
of  the  service  began,  when  the  Rev.  K&shi  Nath  Dutt  asked  the  questioais, 
which  were  severally  replied  to  by  Patras  reading  from  a  carefiillyprepared 
paper.  Next  came  the  Ordination  Prayer,  which  was  offered  by  myself,  the 
brethren  of  the  Committee,  with  K&shi  Nath,  uniting  in  the  imposition  of 
hands ;  and  Dr.  Mather  delivered  the  charge  and  terminated  the  service. 

"  The  answers  to  the  questions  were  excellent,  and  I  am  sure  all  must  have 
been  satisfied  with  them.  The  answer  stating  the  confession  of  faith  was 
clear  and  explicit.  I  do  not  think  it  necessary  to  send  you  a  translation  of 
these  replies ;  but,  were  I  to  do  so,  you  would  be  much  pleased  with  them. 
Dr.  Mather's  charge  in  Hindustani  was  most  earnest  and  impressive.  The 
senior  missionary  of  the  Church  Mission  said  afterwards,  that  he  wished 
several  native  brethren  of  his  Mission,  (mentioning  their  names),  who  were 
not  there,  had  been  present ;  and  he  hoped  it  would  be  printed.  Altogether, 
the  service  was  one  of  great  solemnity,  and  the  remembrance  of  it  wiH,  I 
doubt  not,  be  retained  by  the  brethren  present,  European  and  native,  for 
many  years  to  come. 

*'  But  the  moral  wmght  of  this  step  I  already  feel  to  be  vcary  coi&iderable 
among  the  native  community.    An  impetus  has  been  imparted  to  our  wofk

of  a  noyel  cliaracter.  The  natiye  Cluifltians  have  begun  to  be  conscious  of  a 
spiritual  power  residing  among  themselyes,  of  which  they  were  previously 
unaware.  Instead  of  being  so  dependent  upon  the  missionary  in  regard  to 
all  topics,  as  formerly,  they  will  now,  I  hope  and  belieye,  learn  to  look  up  to 
one  raised  from  amongst  themselves ,  who  is  capable  of  giving  them  advice 
and  of  settling  their  difficulties.  We  have  now  two  ordained  native  brethren 
in  l^e  Mission — K&shi  Nath  Dutt,  from  Bhowanipore,  and  Patras,  both  men 
of  prayer,  devotedness,  and]  zeal.  I  thaok  €K>d  that  He  has  given  us  such 
men. 

"  My  mind  is  greatly  comforted  and  encouraged  as  I  look  forward  to  the 
future  history  of  the  Mission.  I  believe  we  have  a  glorious  career  before  us. 
Our  bazar  preaching  and  our  schools  are  exerting  a  great  influence  over  the 
heathen  in  the  neighbourhood.  Only  a  few  days  ago,  to  my  great  suiprise, 
two  of  the  chief  priests  of  a  renowned  place  of  pilgrimage  near  the  Mission,  to 
which  it  is  said  some  40,000  pilgprims  annually  resort,  attended  by  seven  or  eight 
disciples,  visited  the  Mission — for  what  reason,  do  you  suppose  P  To  abandon 
idolatry,  and  to  embrace  Christianity.  They  were  not  baptized  at  the  time, 
however,  on  account  of  some  trivial  difficulty  which  they  raised  amongst  them- 
selves, not  against  the  rite  of  baptism,  but  in  regard  to  the  order  of  precedence 
in  which  they  were  to  be  baptized:  some  wishing  that  all  should  be  baptized  at 
once,  while  others  wished  that  some  should  be  baptized  at  one  time,  and  some 
at  another.  I  have  still  hopes  that  some  of  these  men  will  avow  their  faith 
in  Christ.  But,  what  struck  me  with  immense  astonishment  was,  that  priests 
deriving  considerable  revenues  from  the  offerings  of  idolaters,  one  of  whomt* 
of  seventy  or  eighty  years  of  age,  was  a  man  well  known,  I  should  say  all  the 
way  from  the  Puigab  to  Calcutta,  should  voluntarily  come  to  us  to  express 
'  their  faith  in  Christ  as  their  Saviour.  May  the  Lord  show  mercy  upon  them, 
a^d  bring  them  into  His  fold !  I  feel  assured  that  we  shall  receive  the  earnest 
prayers  of  yourself  and  the  Directors  for  the  prosperity  of  this  Mission,  and 
for  the  blessing  of  the  Lord  to  descend  abundantly  upon  our  new  ministerial 
broiler  Patras.

OBDIKATIOK  OF  JOSEPH  MASON,   NATIVE   ETANGEUST. 
LETTER  OP  EEV.  EDW.  PORTER,  ADDRESSED  TO  THE  FOREIGN  SECRETARY. 

"Madras,  December  27, 1864. 
"  My  dear  Dr.  Tidman, — I  have  to  inform  you  of  the  public  ordination 
of  our  native  brother,  Mr.  Joseph  Mason,  to  the  responsible  office  of  the 
Christian  ministry,  in  connection  with  the  Mission  Church  at  Cuddapah  and 
the  surrounding  stations  attached  to  it.  This  interesting  service  took  place 
in  our  Mission  chapel  at  Cuddapali  on  the  19th  of  December,  when  a  large 


FOR  MARCH,    1865.  67 

and  attentive  audience,  chieflj  consisting  of  East  Indians  and  natives,  were 
present,  aiM  listened  with  deep  attention  to  the  various  discourses  then 
delivered.  Our  brethren,  the  Rev.  C.  Campbell,  of  Bangalore,  and  the  Rev. 
J.  P.  Ashton,  of  Madras,  kindly  rendered  us  their  valuable  help  in  this 
service. 

"  After  singing  bj  the  congregation,  and  prajer  by  myself,  the  4)th  chapter 
of  1  Timothy  was  read  by  the  Rev.  0.  Campbell,  who  gave  a  short  discourse 
on  the  Scriptural  origin  of  ministeiial  oi*dination  by  the  laying-on  of  the 
hands  of  the  presbytery ;  referring  to  the  act  especially  as  a  simple  recog- 
nition by  the  elders  of  the  Church  of  the  fitness,  mental  and  moral,  of  a 
Christian  brother  to  exercise  the  gifts  of  the  Christian  ministry  in  a  certain 
portion  of  the  Lord's  vineyard,  and  duly  to  perform  the  administration  of  the 
Christian  ordinances  of  baptism  and  the  Lord's  supper.  It  was  then  stated 
that,  having  examined  our  brother  on  the  great  points  of  the  Christian  faith, 
and  having  had  satisfiEictory  evidence  of  his  Christian  character  and  conduct, 
we  were  about  to  set  him  apart  to  the  solemn  office  of  the  Christian  ministry. 
After  the  discourse  was  finished,  and  the  usual  questions  put  to  the  candidate 
and  answered,  a  solemn  and  affecting  prayer  was  offered  up  by  Mr.  Campbell, 
with  the  laying-on  of  the  hands  of  Messrs.  E.  Porter  and  John  P.  Ashton. 
Our  dear  native  brother  was  bathed  in  tears  during  the  whole  of  the  time,, 
and  we  all  felt  on  this  occasion  how  solemn  were  the  vows  which  we  had 
already  made  before  G^d  and  His  Church  in  reference  to  the  duties  and  respon- 
sibilities  of  the  Christian  ministry.  I  trust  that  we  all  could  say  in  sincerity, 
at  that  solemn  period, '  It  was  good  for  us  to  draw  near  to  God.' 

"After  the  prayer  was  finished  the  congregation  again  sung  an  anthenb 
well  known  in  England,  ' How  beautiful  upon  the  mountains;'  after  which  I 
offered  the  charge  in  Telugu  to  our  native  brother,  taking  the  words  of  Paul 
to  Timothy  as  the  ground  of  my  discourse  (1  Tim.  iv.  16) — '  Take  heed  unto- 
thyself,  and  unto  the  doctrine;  continue  in  them;'  showing  the  necessity,  in 
eveiy  Christian  minister,  of  deep  personal  piety,  faithfulness,  and  love  in  the 
performance  of  his  public  duties  in  the  Church,  careful  visitation  of  the  sick 
and  the  poor,  as  also  the  duty  of  maintaining  a  consistent  and  upright  con- 
duct in  the  sight  of  the  world ;  seeking  to  avoid  giving  any  occasion  to  the 
adversary  to  speak  reproachfully.  After  the  charge  was  finished  another 
hymn  was  sung,  and  then  the  Rev.  J.  P.  Ashton  addressed  the  congregation 
from  the  words  of  the  Apostle  to  the  Hebrews,  *  Obey  them  that  have  the  rule 
over  you.'  The  congregation  were  then  dismissed  with  prayer  and  singing 
the  doxology. 

"  Thus  ended  one  of  the  most  delightful  and  refreshing  services  I  have 
witnessed  in  this  heathen  land.  May  a  large  measure  of  Divine  influence  rest 
upon  our  dear  native  brother  who  has  thus  been  solemnly  set  apart  to  the 
work  of  the  Christian  ministry,  and  whose  conduct,  and  attainments  in  Chris- 
tian theology,  have  afforded  us  the  most  pleasing  evidence  of  his  fitness  for 
the  great  work !  Let  me  ^itreat  your  prayers  that  many  more  may  be  raised 
up  like  him,  to  spread  the  saving  knowledge  of  Jesus  Christ  through  this 
dark  land." 

In  the  same  letter  our  respected  brother  Mr,  Porter  gives  the  following

"  Ton  will,  no  donbt,  be  gratified  to  bear  tbat,  dining  my  last  visit  to  onr 
out-stations  in  November,  I  bad  tbe  pleasure  of  baptizing  upwards  of  fifty 
natives  (including  adults  and  children),  most  of  whom  bad  been  three  years 
under  Ohristian  instruction,  and  have  given  satisfactory  proofs  of  their  entire 
rejection  of  idolatry,  and  the  sincerity  of  their  faith  in  tbe  Lord  Jesus. 

"  Forty  of  the  above  number  belong  to  a  village  called  Velevely,  about  two 
miles  from  Dhur,  and  have,  for  some  time  peat,  given  up  all  connection  with 
the  heathen  festivals  cairried  on  in  their  village,  and  in  the  neighbourhood 
around.  A  school  has  been  established  for  their  benefit  for  three  or  four 
years  past,  and  the  children  in  attendance  generally  number  xqywards  of 
twenty. 

"  The  Olmstian  schoolmaster  at  the  village  daily  holds  evening  prayers 
wiUi  the  inquirers  and  their  famiHes.  At  this  mooting  the  Scriptures  are 
read,*  and  a  catechetical  exercise  held  with  the  adults  and  children.  l%e 
above  mteresting  group  were  baptized  by  me  at  ihe  ohapd  at  Dhur  (iidiioh  is 
one  of  our  chi^  out-stations)  on  Monday,  the  21it  of  November.  This  bumble 
place  of  worridp  has  been  lately  repaired,  and  will  seat  comfortably  upwards 
of  100  persons.  On  the  previous  Lord's  day  npwscrds  of  eighty  i>ersons 
attended  at  our  morning  service,  and  mani^asted  the  deepest  att^niaon  to  the 
Word  of  Life.  On  the  oooasiiMi  Of  tiieir  baptism  they  all  came  in  clean  attite, 
with  the  mothers  and  ^betr  little  ones  in  front  of  them,  preswutingthemselvei 
before  the  Lord  to  avow  their  faith  in  our  Divine  Redeemer,  and  to  conseciate 
themselves  to  His  service. 

"  It  was,  indeed,  to  me  an  interesting  *and  a  cheering  sight  to  see  forty 
precious  souls,  formerly  immersed  in  all  the  darkness  and  uncleanness  of 
idolatry,  now  coming  ftnrward  and  saying,  with  Bphraim  of  old,  '  What  have 
WB  to  do  any  more  witSi  o«r  iddls  P  The  Lord,  He  is  our  God;  Jesus,  He  is 
our  Redeemer.*  With  the  help  of  our  native  evangelist,  I  held  a  long  and 
interesting  examination  of  Hie  candidates  in  reference  to  the  chief  doctrines 
and  facts  of  the  Christian  revelation,  and  was  much  gratified  with  the  know- 
ledge they  evinced  of  the  important  points  of  our  holy  ifoith.  I  questioned 
them  in  reference  to  the  attributes  of  the  true  God,  the  nature  of  tiie  human 
soul,  the  sinful  state  of  man,  and  his  consequent  guilt  and  misery ;  the  moral 
law,  and  the  numerous  ways  in  which  man  transgressed  it ;  and  the  way  of 
pardon,  peace,  and  eternal  life,  through  the  incarnation,  death,  and  glorious 
resurrection  of  our  blessed  Redeemer. 

**  After  the  examination  I  prayed  with  them  in  Telugu,  and  then  gave  a 
brief  discourse  on  the  nature  of  Qiristian  baptism,  its  spiritual  meaning  and 
consequent  responsibilities.  I  then  baptized  forty  of  these  interesting 
inquirers,  praying  to  the  Great  Head  of  the  Church,  that  He  would  pour  out 
His  Spirit  upon  th«n,  and  make  them  new  creatures  in  Christ  Jesus.  We 
ooncluded  this  interesting  service  by  singing  and  prayer ;  after  which  this 
littie  group  of  native  Christians  returned  to  their  homes,  rejoicing  in  the 
liberty  wherewith  Christ  makes  his  people  free. 

'*  Let  me  entreat  your  prayers,  and  those  of  the  friends  and  supporters  of

our  Society,  that  the  Lord  may  pour  ont  His  renewing  Spirit  on  these  yonng

depraved  heathen  by  whom  they  are  surrounded.

BAN^GALOHE. 

One  of  the  greatest  obstacles,  next  to  caste,  to  the  progress  of  the  Go^el  in 
India,  has  been  realized  in  the  habits  of  comparatlye  seclusion  general]^ 
observed  by  HindoM.  This  gigantic  difficulty  still  exists  in  great  foroe ; 
seyertheless,  it  has  in  an  encouraging  degree  been  overcome.  This  has  been 
eflfected  partly  by  the  long-continued  establishment  of  female  floho<^  0f 
dif^rent  classes,  together  with  the  system  of  2enana  visitation,  which  has 
TBcentiy  been  attempted  with  encouraging  success. 

Our  devoted  brother,  the  Rev.  Colik  Campbell,  who  has  laboured  m 
India  for  thirty  years  past,  and  has  recently  returned  to  that  country,  is 
anxious  to  correct  what  he  believes  to  be  an  exaggerated  estimate  of  these 
difficulties,  entertained  by  Christiaiis  at  home ;  and,  with  that  view,  he 
recently  addzessed  the  following  instructive  and  encourc^ing  letter  to  .a 
Christian  Mend  in  Sootlaad,  of  w^ioh  we  gladly  avail  ourselves : — 

*'  Bangalore,  October  ^&l,  1864. 

"  Hy  ixeab  FMEin), — ^I  -think  it  is  time  for  me  to  write  a  few  lines,  hoth 
for  your  own  sake  and  for  the  sake  of  ihe  many  good  ladies  in  the  good  bM 
town  of  Paisley,  who  take  an  interest  in  our  missionary  work 

**  The  time  when  I  enjoyed  Christian  fdlowship  with  you,  and  others  of  the 
Lord's  people  in  my  native  town,  was  short,  but  very  sweet ;  and  now  I'kx)k 
back  upon  that  hallowed  season  with  pleasure.  But  it  is  mingled  with  feelings 
of  regret  that  I  did  so  little  to  commend  the  great  and  glorious  cause  in  which 
I  am  engaged.  And  this,  I  suppose,  I  shall  always  feel  to  the  end  of  my 
days. 

"  Indeed,  it  is  very  much  the  same  here.  '  Who  is  sufficient  for  these  things  f* 
What  impotent  creatures  we  are !  and  what  a  mighty  work  we  have  taken  in 
hand !  May  the  Lord,  whose  glory  we  seek,  and  to  whom  we  wish  this 
rebellious  people  to  turn,  graciously  help  us  on  in  our  work. 

"  I  trust  that  this  object  will,  in  a  measure,  be  accomplished  by  my  temporary 
sojourn  among  you ;  you  know  a  little  more  of  me  now,  as  well  as  of  my  wife, 
and  you  may  be  the  more  disposed  to  grant  my  request  when  I  say,  in  deep 
earnestness  of  spirit,  pray  for  us ;  pray  for  me  and  all  my  fellow  labourers. 
And  if  the  Church  generally  is  thus  stirred  up  to  call  on  the  Lord  often  on

fervent  prayer  of  a  righteous  man  is  of  much  ay  aQ.    I  believe  this  most  surely, 
and  therefore  I  plead  for  such  prayers  for  our  good  cause. 

FAIiSE  IMPBBE88IONB  BEGABDING  THE  SECLUSION  OF  HINDOO  WOMEN. 

**  I  wish  to  make  a  few  remarks  on  a  speech  which  is  reported  in  '  The 
Female  Missionary  Intelligencer/  as  delivered  by  a  highly  respectable  clergy- 
man of  Dublin.  Among  other  things,  the  speaker  said :  '  In  the  TncJiim 
population — ^indeed,  in  all  Eastern  populations — man  stands  distinct  from 
woman.  She  is  unapproachable  by  male  influence ;  and  this  gives  the  key  to 
the  whole  formation  of  this  society ;  for  a  missionary  in  the  East  may  be  most 
devoted  to  the  Lord's  work,  yet  he  cannot  reach  one  single  female  mind, 
except  by  such  surreptitious  means  as  may  endanger  his  own  head,  and  cer- 
tainly the  life  of  his  victim,  in  the  heroic  effort.  Females  covered  up  in  the 
Zenanas,  left  in  that  peculiar  seclusion  by  the  law  of  their  land,  know  nothing 
of  the  glad  tidings  of  the  Grospel,  never  hear  the  Word  of  Life,  never  come  to 
the  preaching  of  the  missionaries ;  if  they  attempted  it  they  would  be  branded 
with  disgrace.' 

"  Now,  I  hope  the  ladies  of  England  do  not  require  all  this  to  stir  them  up 
to  help  us  in  our  female  school-work  in  India ;  because  I  am  prepared  to  show 
them  that  there  is  no  such  state  of  things  in  India.  There  are  9,  few  females 
in  India, '  covered  up  in  the  Zenanas '  in  the  sense  intended  by  Mr.  Pollock ; 
that  is,  entirely  secluded — such  as  the  wives  and  concubines  of  the  native 
Princes,  and  some  of  the  Mohammedan  women  of  the  very  highest  classes. 
I  should  say  there  are  comparatively  few  of  the  others  so  entirely  shut  up. 
At  all  events,  I  do  not  know  of  anything  like  this  in  this  part  of  the  country. 
Those  who  may  be  called  native  ladiei  in  the  Mysore  country,  perhaps,  do  not 
go  yeiy  much  out  ,*  but  they  do  go  about ;  and  if  gentlemen  go  to  the  houses 
they  may  see  them  and  converse  with  them.  I  grant  it,  that  they  are  v^y 
shy  of  us,  and  that  we  do  not  see  much  of  them  $  and  therefore,  we  very  much 
want  our  ladies  to  visit  them  and  teach  them.  Still,  it  is  not  quite  true, 
even  of  the  women  of  the  high  classes,  that  they  never  have,  or  may  have,  an 
opportunity  of  hearing  the  GospeL 

THE  NATIVE  FEMALES  INCBEASINOLT  OPEN  TO  CHBISTIAN  INFLUENCE. 

"  Much  less  is  this  correct  of  women  generally.  They  may  be  seen  every- 
where, traversing  the  streets  and  in  all  public  places.  We  do  not  see  much 
of  either  men  or  women  in  their  houses,  but  they  all  live  a  great  deal  out  of 
doors;  and  when  we  preach  from  street  to  street,  and  especially  from  village 
to  village,  we  in  effect  preach  from  house  to  house.  I  have  preached  in  the 
hearing  of  hundreds,  I  may  say  thousands,  of  women  since  I  came  to  India. 
In  all  my  missionary  excursions  I  have  had  eome  opportunities  of  conversing 
freely  with  women  as  well  as  men.  Therefore,  it  never  has  been  realized  in 
my  case,  that  '  she  is  unapproachable  by  male  influence,'  and  that  the  nus- 
sionary  'cannot  reach  one  single  female  mind.'  The  men  have  genendly 
formed  the  large  majority  of  my  congregations ;  but  now  and  then,  even  in  the 
large  towns,  women  appear  among  them,  and  still  more  in  the  villages; 
and  for  some  years  their  numbers  have  gone  on  increasing.  Before  I  left 
India,  and  very  often  when  I  was  at  home,  I  gladly  called  attention  to  this 


POR  MARCH,  1865.  61 

fact,  as  one  among  many  proofs  that  there  is  a  change  coming  over  the  Hindn 
female  mind. 

**  A  few  mornings  ago,  when  I  was  preaching  at  the  comer  of  a  street,  I 
observed  a  woman  looking  out  from  a  window  close  b j.  She  was  in  a  position 
to  hear  every  word  I  said,  without  being  observed  by  anybody ;  and  I  daresay 
the  sound  of  the  Gospel  has  often  entered  the  female  ear,  and  perhaps  the 
female  heart,  in  a  similar  way. 

**  In  years  past  I  have  conversed  at  great  length  with  intelligent  Hindu 
women,  whose  faces  I  may  never  see  again.  One  of  a  group  gave  me  this  as 
her  blessing :  *  May  you  be  always  cool.'  Very  appropriate  in  a  hot  climate. 
And  my  blessing  to  these  sable  sisters  in  return  is  :  '  May  the  love  of  Jesus 
be  soon  kindled  in  your  hearts.'  This  very  day,  in  the  heart  of  this  great 
city,  after  I  had  preached  in  a  crowd  of  men,  not  without  women,  I  was  walk- 
ing along  a  narrow  street,  and  stood  for  a  little  near  a  house  where  two  or 
three  men  were  conversing.  I  spoke  to  them,  and  presently  a  large  number 
of  people  assembled ;  and  I  think  about  a  dozen  women,  old  and  young,  looked 
out  from  the  house  before  which  I  was  standing,  and  listened  attentively  to 
all  I  said. 

ZENANA  AND  OTHER  FBMAIiE  SCHOOLS  OF  BANGALORE. 

"  I  am  sure  the  reverend  speaker  will  be  thankful  that  Uie  state  of  things 
in  India  is  not  quite  as  he  supposed.  Still,^  most  heartily  rqjoice  in  all  that 
is  done  in  all  our  female  schools  of  every  description.  Our  Girls'  Board- 
ing Schools,  our  Girls'  Day  Schools,  and  our  Zenana  Schools,  are  all  helping 
forward  the  cause ;  and  we  need  no  exaggerated  statement  of  the  seduded 
state  of  the  females  in  India  to  make  us  feel  the  vast  importance  of  these 
schools.  When  we  get  girls  into  our  schools,  we  make  sure  of  making  them 
thoroughly  to  understand  the  Gospel ;  and  I  should  think  it  will  soon  be  seen 
that  they  who  enjoy  the  benefit  of  such  instruction  will  very  rarelyhe  heathen, 
like  their  less  enlightened  neighbours.  Alas !  we  have  too  much  reason  to  fear 
they  will  not  all  believe  savingly  in  Christ ;  but  I  am  confident  with  regard  to 
a  large  number  of  them,  that  faith  in  their  own  gods  and  superstitions  is  gone 
forever. 

"  You  will  observe  that  the  Zenana  Schools  are  schools  in  the  houses  of  some 
of  the  higher  classes  of  Brahmins,  and  of  other  high-caste  natives,  for  the 
benefit  of  adult  females,  who  will  not  come  to  a  public  day  school.  Of  course 
such  a  school  requires  a  lady.  It  is  comparatively  a  new  branch  of  the  work. 
Some  years  ago,  such  an  effort  would  have  been  quite  hopeless ;  but  other 
efforts  in  former  days  have  prepared  the  way  for  this.  Now  may  be  the  time 
to  add  this  to  our  other  modes  of  operation.  In  the  temporary  absence  of  my 
wife,  I  am  allowed  to  superintend  the  Female  Day  Schools  left  by  Mrs.  Sewell. 
These  are  six  in  number — five  Canarese  and  one  Tamil.  The  number  on  our 
list  is,  I  believe,  about  200  girls. 

"  Sometimes  I  am  delighted  with  the  smiling  faces,  the  sharp  intelligent 
eyes,  and  ready  answers  of  these  girls.  I  wish  you  coiild  go  with  me  to  these 
schools,  as  some  of  the  Christian  ladies  here  have  done,  to  witness  an  examin- 
ation. I  think  you  would  sing  for  joy.  But  I  have  used  the  wrong  word : 
I  cannot  say  satisfaction  ;  there  is  a  feeling  of  joy  and  affection  for  those 


62  MISSIONAKY  THAGAZINE 

Hindu  females,  but  I  can  never  be  satisfied  till  I  see  them  penitent  at  tbe 
feet  of  Jesus.  I  want  you  all  to  pray  earnestly  for  this.  Not  a  few  of  the  girls 
have  quite  knowledge  enougb  for  this ;  but  they  want  the  influence  from 
above — that  verij  t%ing  without  which  all  the  rdigious  privileges  of  happy 
Scotland  would  be  vain. 

"  I  have  left  myself  little  space  or  time  to  give  any  particular  illustrations 
of  these  general  statements ;  but  I  was  anxious  to  make  this  one  matter  clear. 
I  hope  I  have  done  so,  and  I  hope  you  will  be  prepared  to  help  us  in  giving 
those,  at  least  in  your  own  immediate  circle,  a  more  accurate  idea  of  the  con- 
dition of  females  in  India,  than  some  people  at  home  seem  to  have.  I  know 
it  is  very  difficult,  after  all  we  say,  for  those  at  such  a  distance  properly  to 
comprehend  the  real  state  of  things ;  butHi's.  Campbell  will  be  able  to  enlighten 
you  still  further  if  you  need  it. 

"  I  must  now  say  farewell  for  the  present.  Remember  me  very  kindly  to 
those  of  your  house,  and  also  the  friends  who  know  me.  The  Lord  be  wiUi 
you  and  prosper  all  your  work.

NEW  MISSIONARY  SHIP. 

We  are  happy  to  infonn  crar  readers  that  the  Directore,  after  a  oseM  con- 
sideration of  the  entire  case,  have  entered  into  an  engagement  vith  one  df 
the  most  respectable  shipbuilders  in  the  North  for  building  anew  missionazy 
ship.  They  trust  that,  when  completed,  the  "John  Williaits"  win  be 
equal,  in  some  respects  superior,  to  her  predecessor;  and,  although  th^ 
caanot  entertain  the  hppe  that  she  will  be  ready  for  sea  until  nearly  the  end 
of  ithe  year,  yet  the  advantages  to  be  secured  will  be  an  ample  compensation 
for  the  delay. 

With  what  intense  desire  our  brethren  in  the  South  Pacific  anticipate 
her  first  and  future  vidts  will  be  leamt  from  fthe  subjoined  letter  of  the 
Bev.  W.  Wtatt  Gnx,  of  Mangaia;  and  the  readiness  of  tiie  Katiiw 
Christians  to  contribute  from  their  limited  resources  towards  the  puTchase  <if 
the  new  ship,  has  been  evinced  not  only  by  the  Christians  of  Mangaut,  but 
also  by  the  children  of  SamoOy  as  will  be  seen  irom  the  brief  commuBicatioii 
we  subjoin  from  a  recent  letter  of  the  Rev.  Br.  Tuener. 

LKTTEK  OF  BET.  W.   WYATT  OILL. 

"Mangaia,  October  27th,  1864. 
"  Mt  deab  Doctor,— I  have  just  enclosed  to  the  Rev.  G.  Morris  a  bill  of 
exchange,  payable  at  three  months,  for  the  sum  of  250  dollars ;  i.e.,  £50.  Mr. 
Morris  will  kindly  forward  the  amount  to  the  Treasurer,  when  paid.  This 
sum  represents  the  contributions  of  our  people  towards  the  purchase  of  a  new 
missionary  vessel  It  has  been  fireely  given,  with  many  prayers  that  we  miqr 
speedily  see  another  *  Messenger  of  Peace '  in  these  setw/   We  trust  that  the 


FOR  MARCH,    1866.  68 

new  vessel  will  not  be  smaller  than  tlie  one  we  liave  lost,  atod  that  she  wffl 
bear  the  honoured  name  of  *  John  Williams.'  Throughont  these  seas  the  dear 
old  *  John  Williams '  was  known  and  waited  for  with  the  deepest  interest. 
Though  she  will  no  more  return  to  gladden  our  hearts,  we  trust  that  the  great 
work  will  be  carried  on  with  greater  vigour  and  eflBciency  than  ever.  May 
we  not  hope  for  a  new  route  with  the  new  ship  P  The  *  Bay -spring '  will  visit 
the  New  Hebrides — ^that  vast  and  populous  group  of  islands.  Are  the  Hmits 
of  our  missionary  operations  to  be  contracted  ?  My  belief  is  that  when  a 
Mission  ceases  to  grow  it  will  surely,  though  perhaps  slowly,  decay  and  fall 
into  decrepitude.  To  the  north  of  the  route  of  the  old  *  John  Williams '  lie 
a  number  of  small  islands  still  heathen.  The  natives  are  of  -eastern  origin, 
and  gentle.  The  islands  are  decidedly  healthy  for  eastern  teachers,  although 
in  many  instances  poorly  supplied  with  food.  To  our  brethren  at  Samoa — 
Messrs.  Turner,  ISTisbet,  and  Murray — ^these  islands  must  be  familiar,  at  least 
by  report.  Ellice's  Group  might  be  visited  by  the  new  missionaiy  ship. 
Without  going  to  the  north  ot  the  line  (to  avoid  trespassing  on  the  ground  of 
our  American  brethren),  plenty  of  new  work  could  be  easily  found  for  the  new 
ship,  in  addition  to  the  supply  of  the  wants  of  older  stations.  Some  time 
since  a  native  of  Clark's  Island  spent  a  day  on  shore  with  us.  He  could  speak 
English  well,  had  been  three  times  to  Sydney,  and  was  altogether  an  interest- 
ing fellow,  i  asked  him  who  Jesus  Christ  was.  He  turned  dharply  towards 
me  with  a  penetrating  glance  and  said,  *  I  never  heard  of  Jesus  Christ  befbre. 
Where  does  that  man  live  P'  I  did  what  I  could,  during  the  few  hours  he 
spent  on  shore,  to  instruct  his  dark  mind.  How  greatly  did  some  of  the  pious 
intelligent  young  men  here  long  to  visit  his  idand  home  and  teach  the  poor 
heathen  th^re  the  wonderful  truths  Of  the  Gospel ! 

"  We  have  heard  no  particulars  respecting  the  loss  of  our  noble  Txatudonwf 
barque,  excepting  that  all  were  saved.  Blessed  be  God  for  his  abounding 
mercy.  We  feel  deeply  for  our  missionary  brethren  and  sisters  who  have 
lost  so  much ;  we  feel,  too,  for  the  captain  and  Mrs.  Williams,  the  officers  and 
the  crew,  who  have  doubtless  lost  ^eir  all.  Two  of  the  crew,  as  pious  sailors 
(Geddes  and  Lamprelle),  I  shall  not  easily  forget.  Nor  will  they  easily  forget 
midnight  prayer  meetings  on  deck  with  Mr.  Vivian,  of  Itaiatea. 

"  We  had  purposed  to  send  our  eldest  living  child  (a  little  girl)  to  England 
in  the  *  John  Williams.'  We  are  now  anxiously  inquiring  of  God  the  path  of 
duty  in  respect  to  our  dear  little  one. 

"  We  are  well,  and  busily  engaged  in  the  work  of  our  Master. 

"  I  remain,  my  dear  Sir,

EXTRACT  OF  LBTTBB  FROM  REV.  DR.  TTJRN1SR,  DATBD  MALXTA,  SAMOA, 
SEPTEMBER  27th,  1864. 

"We  have  received  a  contribution  from  the  children  of  the  district, 
including  the  children  of  the  teachers  in  the  Institution,  to  help  in  the 
purchase  of  a  new  missionary  ship.  The  children,  helped  on  by  their  parents 
and  teachers,  entered  with  great  spirit  into  the  latter  scheme,  which,  by  the 


64  MISSIONARY  MAGAZINE 

way,  was  entirely  a  native  proposal.  "We  divided  the  district  into  three 
sections,  and  fixed  a  day  for  each  on  which  to  meet  with  the  childi-en,  and 
combine,  with  our  annual  examination  of  the  schools,  the  receipt  of  the  con- 
tributions for  the  new  ship.  The  classes  walked  up  in  order  to  the  table 
where  Mr.  Nisbet  and  I  sat,  and  put  their  subscriptions  into  the  plate.  Every 
one  had  something — ^tbat  something  was  silver  ;  and  the  whole  amounted  to 
152  dollars,  or  £30  8*.,  which  wiU  be  transmitted  to  Mr.  Prout.  The 
children  here  like  the  idea  of  having  *  a  share  in  the  concern,'  as  well  as  the 
children  in  England,  and  they  will  look  at  the  fine  new  ship  when  she  comes 
with  no  small  pleasure,  as  they  think  that  their  money  paid  for  a  plank  or  two, 
or  perhaps  one  of  the  boats."

first  Sabbath  in  th^  present  month  for  the  occasion.

CHRONICLE. 


MADAGASCAE. 

In  the  absence  of  any  fresh  information  from  our  Missionary  Brethren  in 
Madagascar,  we  have  great  pleasure  in  presenting  our  readers  with  the 
following  extracts  fit)m  the  "  Chttkch  Missionaet  Intelligbncek,"  describ- 
ing the  arrival,  in  the  province  of  Vohemake,  on  the  north  coast  of  the 
island,  of  the  Bev.  Messrs.  Cakpbell  and  MAirNnBELL,  the  two  missionaries 
of  that  Society  appointed  to  Madagascar. 

The  description  which  they  give  of  the  general  character  and  habits  of  the 
people  corresponds  too  accurately  with  that  given  of  the  heathen  population 
throughout  the  country.  They  are  ignorant,  untruthftd,  selfish,  and  licen- 
tious in  the  extreme.  But,  on  the  other  hand,  the  newly  arrived  strangers 
were  welcomed  as  Englishmen,  and  among  the  Swas  they  met  with  a  few 
individuals,  including  the  governor  and  his  wife,  who  appeared  to  be  true 
Christians.  The  former  spoke  of  the  days  when  he  was  accustomed  at  the 
capital  to  hold  religious  meetings  with  Fbeekan  and  the  other  missionaries, 
and  showed  the  Bible  which,  during  the  persecuting  reign  of  Queen 
Ranavalona,  had  been  buried  in  the  sand  for  its  preservation. 

We  congratulate  our  fellow-labourers  on  this  favourable  commencement  of 
their  Mission  in  Madagascar,  and  earnestly  pray  that  they  may  be  honoured 
to  establish  and  widely  extend  the  kingdom  of  Christ  in  that  section  of  the 
country  which  they  have  selected  as  the  first  field  of  their  operations. 

Prom  the  journals  of  the  missionaries  given  in  the  **  Intelligencer  "  we 
select  a  few  passages : — 

"  We  have  the  gratification  of  stating  the  arrival  of  our  two  missionaries, 
the  Eev.  Messrs.  Campbell  and  Maundrell,  at  Madagascar.  The  province  into 
which  they  have  entered  is  the  most  northern  of  the  island,  and  is  called 
Vohemare.  Ellis,  in  his  history  of  Madagascar,  describes  it  as  mountainous 
and  thinly  populated.  Of  its  mountainous  and,  we  trust,  healthy  character 
there  is  no  doubt ;  and  as  to  its  population  and  resources,  we  shall  soon  be  in 
a  position  to  place  before  our  readers  further  information.  Vohemare  is  the 
name  of  the  district  or  county ;  its  chief  town,  where  our  missionaries  are, 
being  Amboanio.  Digitized  by  LjOOQLC

"  We  have  received  letters  from  both  our  missionaries.  The  first  extracts 
are  from  the  letters  of  the  Rev.  H.  Maundrell. 

'"November  %th,  1864.— Mr.  Campbell  and  I  left  Mauritius  on  Wednesday 
last,  November  3rd,  and  to-day  we  have  sighted  once  more  the  heights  of 
Madagascar.  The  sun  set  this  evening  over  the  hills  and  mountains  to  the 
west  of  our  x)osition,  and  made  our  view  of  Madagascar  a  pleasing  one. 

"  *  Our  voyage  from  Mauritius,  owis^  to  the  extreme  kindness  and  attention 
of  Captain  Rosalie,  the  quiet  weather,  and  the  certain  hope  that  I  was  enabled 
to  enjoy  of  reaching  our  destination,  has  been  the  most  pleasant  of  any  I 
remember. 

"  *  November  9th, — The  weather  was  rather  rough  and  squally  during  last 
night,  and  I  began  to  fear  that  we  should  again  fail  in  reaching  Vohemare. 
My  fears  were  increased  when  I  found,  on  going  on  deck  this  morning,  that 
Captain  Rosalie  was  uncertain  of  hi&  poeltioi^  not  knowing  whether  he  was 
to.  the  southward  or  northward  of  his  port.  He  continued  to  sail  to  th^ 
northward,  and  about  ten  o'clock  a.m.,  to  our  great  satisfaction,  he  sighted 
Tohemare.  In  less  than  two  hours  our  vessel,  the  "  King  Radama  "  was  lying 
quietly  at  anchor  in  Vohemare  harbour.  A  short  time  after  our  arrival 
an  officer,  with  a  few  guards,  came  aboard,  and  demanded  the  objects  oi 
the  captain's  visit,  to  report  the  same  to  the  governor,  who  lives  at  Amboaaio, 
a  town  about  eight  miles  distant  from  Yohemare,  and  mmh.  larger,  being  th« 
Bova  settlement  of  this,  part  of  MadagascaJ^ 

'*  <  After  tiffin,  Mr.  Campbell,  Captain  Rosalie,  and  X  went  ashore  to  viait 
Hie  town.  The  people,  both  Hovas,  Betsimasarakaj^,  and  Sakalavas,  were 
exceedingly  pleased  to  see  us.  They  were  not  a  little  astonished  to  hear 
Mr.  CampbeU  and  me  speak  their  language,  and  concluded  that  we  had  been 
at  Antananarivo. 

" '  The  Bay  of  Yohemare  is  a  fine  sheet  of  water,  four  miles  long  fi-om  south 
to  north,  and  two  and  a  half  from  east  to  west.  The  waves  of  the  Indian  Ocean 
are  shut  out  of  this  bay  by  a  long  reef  of  coral,  which  runs  from  north-west 
to  south-east,  and  through  which  is  the  entrance  to  the  harbour,  about  ten  op 
twelve  yards  from  Vohemare  Point,  to  iAto  south-aast. 

"  *  Of  the  people  I  must  not  say  muoh  at  present.  Th«y  are  a  mixture  of 
Hovas,  Betaima«arakas,  Sakalavas,  and  Antakaras,  The  Hovas  appear  by 
far  the  most  intelligent  and  civilized,  aj?  well  as  the  most  favousable  to 
Christianity.  They  are  found  in  large  numbers  at  Amboanio,  Angovey  to 
the  south,  and  at  Automboka  to  the  north.  The  two  latter  places  can  be 
reached  in  five  days  from  the  former.  It  was  in  the  dialect  of  the  Hovas  that 
Mr.  Campbell  and  I  were  instructed  by  dear  old  Simeon  at  Mauritius,  and 
it  is  to  them  we  are  most  intelligible  in  conversation^  Theirs,  too,  im  the 
court,  and  the  only  written  language  of  Madaga^scar,  aa  weU  as  being  veiy 
similar,  in  many  respects,  to  the  Betsimoaaraka  and  Sakala^a  laogoAgea. 
Consequently,  we  are  more  or  less  understood  by  alL  Here  I  may  say  thab  1 
cannot  be  too  thankful  for  the  time  I  6^nt  in  Mauritius  ia  the  study  <^  tha 
chief  laaguage  of  the  whole  island  of  Madiigeaoar. 

" '  The  Hovas  hold  a  position  with  c^spect  to  the  mhsloomyf  and  to.  tho^ 
oiher  tribfls*  of  Madagaaoar,  sifiiilar  to  tiiat  TVEhich  ihe  Jewish  oonverts  did  itt

— that  the  masaioMajBuistwork  upon  the  other  tribes.  A  great  work,  I  believe,

"  *  November  lOt^ — I  have  spent  the  whole  day  on  shore,  so  also  has  Mr. 
OampbelL  The  peoi^  are  *'  ravorayo  "  (delighted)  to  see  ns,  and  apparevtly 
hare  great  love  for  ns.  The  aide>^-camp  of  the  governor  greeted  me  in  a 
manner  I  was  never  greeted  before.  Another  man  pressed  me  to  huatself  toe 
closely  for  my  comfort.    The  governor  is  expected  to-morrow. 

"^November  12tJL — The  captain,  Mr.  Campbell,  and  I  went  on  shore 
directly  after  breakfast  this  morning,  to  await  the  arrival  of  his  Sxeeilency 
the  Ck^emor  of  Yohemare.  The  white  Malagasy  flag  was  hoisted  at  eleven 
i/dioek^  to  aanonmce  his  arrival  at  the  end  of  the  village.  Then  he  stopped 
at  the  house  of  one  of  his  captains  to  dresa  After  the  lapse  of  two  hours, 
dnrmg  which  all  persons  were  kept  in  anxioos  expectation,  the  governor's 
stately  procession  to  his  kabary  commenced.  First  of  all  was  heard  the  noise 
of  drums  ,*  then  a^eaved  a  number  of  women  walking,  and  dressed  in  white 
aaddifferffiitly  coloured  lambas ;.  then  came  the  wifo  and  child  of  the  governor, 
carried  in  a  palanquin,  and  followed  by  more  fonude  attendants ;  next  cane 
the  ''-an^^itTavaka  **  (sorcerer) ;  and  afterwards  appeared  the  governor  himself, 
boma  in  a  palanquin,  dressed  very  much  as  an  English  gentleman  (white 
trousersy  black  satin  waistcoat,  black  cloth  coat,  white  collar,  black  tie,  and 
hi|^  hat),  preceded  by  a  small  band  playing  with  drums  and  violins,  and 
followed  by  his  soldiers  and  officers,  bearing  muskets,  swords,  and  spears. 
When,  this  procession  reached  the  house  of  kabary,  the  governor's  officers  and 
soldiers  formed  into  a  circle  in  front  of  it.  Here  various  military  and  state 
performances  took  place,  a  short  address  was  delivered  by  his  Excellency,  and 
pieces  of  music  occasionally  played  by  the  band ;  amongst  the  rest,  "  God  save 
the  Queen."  This  preliminary  being  finished,  the  governor  retired  to  the 
house  and  dined.  Soon  afterwards  he  sent  for  Captain  Rosalie,  Mr.  CampbeU, 
and  myself.  He  met  us  at  the  door,  and  we  were  inlTodueed  to  him 
by  Mr.  Guinette.  Mr.  Campbell  then  gave  the  governor  our  two  letters 
of  introduction  from  Mr.  Lemein,  the  Malagasy  consul  at  Maurituis,  and  the 
Bishop  of  Mauritius*  Mr.  Campbell  and  I  had  translated  the  bishop's  into 
Malagasy.  With  the  he^,  therefore,  of  Charles  le  Bon,  all  things  were  made 
plain  to  the  governor.  He  appeared  very  glad  to  see  us ;  sa  also  did  his  wife, 
who  was  sitting  at  his  side  &om  first  to  last.  He  said  that  he  had  heard 
&om  Tamatave  and  from  the  capital  of  our  coming,  and  had  awaited  our 
arrival  month  after  month.  He  and  his  wife,  with  two  or  three  more,  are  the 
only  baptized  Christians  here.  Oh,  what  a  mercy  to  have  them !  In  allnding 
to  the  work  of  the  missionaries  in  Madagascar,  the  governor  said»  that  as  the 


76  MISSIONABT  MAGAZIKB 

sun  dispels  the  darkness,  and  sheds  light  and  comfort  upon  the  earth,  so  the 
light  of  Christianity  was  beginning  to  shine  amidst  the  darkness  of  his  own 
country.  He  alluded  also  to  the  times  of  persecution,  showed  us  a  Bible 
which  he  had  buried  beneath  the  sand  in  those  times,  and  repeated  the 
passage  of  Scripture  that  gave  him  and  his  feUow-Christians  comfort  when 
forsaken  by  all  his  friends ;  viz.,  Matthew  xii.  49,  50,  "  Behold  my  mother  and 
my  brethren !  For  whosoever  shall  do  the  will  of  my  Father  which  is  in 
heaven,  the  same  is  my  brother,  and  sister,  and  mother." 

"'November  IZtk:  Lord! 9  <toy.— Our  first  Sunday  in  Madagascar  has 
strikingly  shown  us  the  necessity  of  the  knowledge  of  God's  Word  amongst 
the  people.  The  whole  day  has  been  spent  by  them  in  buying  and  selling. 
Trade  has  been  increased  by  the  debarkation  of  goods  from  the  "King  Ba- 
dama,"  and  the  small  village  of  Yohemare,  at  other  times  quiet,  has  resembled 
to-day  the  smaller  market-towns  of  England,  or  in  a  measure  the  bazaar  of 
Port  Louis,  Mauritius.  While  going  in  and  out  amongst  the  people,  I  told 
them  of  the  manner  in  which  the  Lord's  day  is  observed  in  England  and 
other  Christian  countries,  and  in  every  case  they  confessed  that  it  is  wrong 
to  work  and  trade  on  this  day. 

" '  But  I  will  turn  to  a  more  pleasing  subject.  Mr.  Campbell  and  I  had  scarcely 
finished  breakfast  this  morning,  on  board  the  vessel,  when  the  governor's 
private  secretary  (a  Christian)  came  on  board,  with  a  message  from  him  to 
this  effect :  "  The  governor  says  the  Lord's  day  has  now  come,  and  he  wishes 
you  two  white  men  to  come  and  join  with  him  in  singing  and  prayer."  We 
at  once  accompanied  the  messenger  to  the  governor's  house.  He  was  reading 
the  Bible  when  we  arrived,  and  his  wife  seated  at  his  side.  After  a  little 
general  conversation,  he  alluded  to  the  meetings  for  prayer,  &c.,  which  he 
used  to  enjoy  in  Mr.  Freeman's  time,  and  expressed  a  wish  that  all  of  us  should 
now  join  in  like  manner  in  singing  the  praises  of  the  Lord.  Many  hymns 
were  sung,  some  to  English,  and  some  to  Malagasy  tunes.  Then  I  read  the 
1st  chapter  of  the  Acts  of  the  Apostles,  Mr.  Campbell  the  Litany,  and  Charles 
le  Bon  concluded  with  an  extempore  prayer.  There  were  present,  besides 
ourselves,  the  governor  and  his  wife,  his  secretary,  two  other  officers,  two 
females,  and  the  players  on  the  violin.' 
"  The  following  extracts  are  from  the  letter  of  the  Rev.  T.  Campbell : — 
"  *  November  9ih» — ^When  we  had  anchored  but  a  short  time  a  canoe  pushed 
off  from  the  shore,  full  of  men,  the  officer  of  customs  and  his  train,  consisting 
in  all  of  about  eight  persons. 

"  *  As  soon  as  they  had  learned  that  we  were  English,  their  fru^es  brightened 
up  in  a  most  extraordinary  manner,  and  one  of  them  said  that  **  the  governor 
likes  Englishmen."  This  statement  was  music  in  my  ears.  We  told  them 
that  we  wished  to  see  the  governor  at  once,  and  were  informed  that  we  should 
not  be  able  to  see  him  for  two  or  three  days.  This  was  not  very  encouraging; 
however,  all  we  could  do  was  to  submit. 

"  *  November  11th. — ^If  any  of  our  friends  at  home  imagine  that  Madagascar 
is  Christianized,  they  are  labouring  under  a  fatal  delusion.  The  people  here 
are  sunk  in  the  grossest  sin  and  ignorance,  and  morality  is  a  thing  totally 
uidcnown  among  them.  I  tried  to  preach  to  the  people  thrice  to-day,  and  am 
happy  to  say  they  listened  very  attentively;  and  I  heard  some  of  them 


FOR  APRIL,  1865.  77 

repeating  the  name  Jeans  Christ  several  times,  as  if  they  wished  to  remember 
it. 

"  *  November  12<A. — ^Affcer  the  kabary  the  governor  sent  for  ns.  We  told 
him  our  business,  and  produced  our  credentials.  Charles  le  Bon  placed  our 
wishes  before  him  in  most  eloquent  terms ;  and  he  expressed  his  delight  at 
our  coming  among  them.  His  name  is  Bainikotomavo.  He  is  about  forty 
years  of  age,  and  not  at  aU  unlike  the  Bev.  Charles  Elushalle,  who  was 
lately  ordained  by  the  Bishop  of  Mauritius. 

'' '  In  the  evening  he  sent  for  us  again,  and  requested  us  to  sing  with  him, 
which  we  did  for  about  an  hour.  He  seems  to  me  to  he  a  thoroughly  good 
Christian  man.  He  showed  us  his  Bible,  which  he  had  buried  in  the  earth  during 
the  reign  of  Manavalona,  He  told  us  that  he  knew  our  old  Malagasy  teacher, 
Simeon  Adrianomanana. 

** '  November  14th. — ^I  had  several  conversations  with  the  governor  to-day, 
and  find  him  to  be  really  a  man  of  God.  I  only  wish  that  he  had  more  power 
than  he  has.  A  governor  in  Madagascar  is  absolutely  nothing.  Before  he 
can  do  anything  he  must  consult  all  his  officers,  and  if  one  of  them  objects, 
the  governor's  proposition  comes  to  nought. 

" '  November  Ibth, — In  the  afternoon  the  governor's  wife  and  child  visited 
the  '*  King  Badama,"  and  had  tiffin  with  us  on  board.  She  is  a  very  nice 
person,  modest  and  lady-like  in  her  way,  and,  as  far  as  I  can  judge,  she  is  a 
good  Christian  woman. 

*'  *  In  the  evening  Mr.  Maundrell  opened  his  harmonium,  which  is  at  present 
in  the  governor's  house,  and  played  several  tunes,  while  I  sang.  The  music 
Boon  drew  together  a  houseful  of  people ;  and  although  the  instrument  was  out 
of  tune,  and  Mr.  Maundrell  only  a  tyro,  yet  his  music  had  almost  the  same 
e£Eect  upon  them  as  the  lute  of  Orpheus  had  on  the  inanimate  creation.' " 


CHINA. 
HAN-KOW. 

The  following  narrative,  lately  received  from  the  Ebv.  Griffith  John,  gives 
a  graphic  representation  of  the  character  of  the  Chinese,  and  especially  of  the 
higher  classes,  including  mandariks,  maoistbaiss,  and  scholabs.  It  presents 
that  moumM  want  of  honesty  and  sincerity  by  which  they  are  characterized, 
and  which  is  often  concealed  under  professions  of  great  respect  and  warm 
affection.  But  our  brother  Mr.  John  has  had  too  much  experience  of  the 
Chinese,  on  the  one  hand,  to  be  deceived  by  hollow  and  unmeaning  professions 
of  friendship,  or,  on  the  other,  to  be  intimidated  by  their  real  and  violent 
antipathy  to  missionary  labours  and  Christian  teaching. 

We  are  truly  rejoiced  at  the  zeal  and  enterprise  which  our  friend  displays 
in  extending  the  sphere  of  his  operations  into  populous  cities  in  the  neigh- 
bourhood of  Han-kow  i  and  we  are  also  gratified  with  the  character,  intelli- 
gence, and  courage  of  the  native  evangelists  whom  Gbd  has  already  raised 
up  as  helpers  to  the  truth.  Digitized  by  LjOOgLC

"  Han-kow,  28th  December,  1864. 
"  DsAB  Bbothes, — ^Wu-duag,  aa  you  are  Mmpe,«8thefiBraviaciaL<)i^ital  of

or,  86  tbej  are  uxutedlj  called,  Hu-kwang.  It  lies  om  the  light  bank  of  tke 
Yang-tu,  o{){K>8ite  to  tlie  depaitmental  citj  of  Hajt^jasig,  wkkli  is  a  little 
above  the  to^n  of  Haa-kow.  Tbe  city  waU  is  about  ten  miles  in  curaoBW 
ference;  and  the  present  population  is  between  three  and  four  hundiwd 
thousand.  Geogra(phicallj,  the  aij  is  pretdlj  situated,  and  presents  many 
attractive  features ;  politically,  it  is  one  of  the  most  important  cdties  in  the 
ompire;  commercialty,  however,  it  is  quite  eclipsed  by  Han-kow,  the  groaitatft 
martin  China. 

A  VISIT  TO  THE   VICBBOY. 

'*  One  of  the  first  things  I  did  after  my  arrival  here  was  to  visit  Wn^chang. 
I  was  greatly  pleased  with  the  city  itsdf  ,  and  felt  the  importance  of  estafelidk* 
ing  a  Mjflsion-statiQn  there  as  soon  aa  possible.  Whilst  standing  on  the  top 
of  the  hill  which  runs  through  the  city,  and  surveying  the  temples,  the 
monasteries,  the  halls  of  learning,  the  o£Bcial  residences,  and  the  mass  of 
private  dwellings  which  lay  at  my  feet,  I  fdt  a  atrong  desire  to  oomxoeace  the 
missionary  work  there,  and  determined  that  I  ahould  get  in,  sooner  or  later, 
in  spite  of  every  oppositicm.  As  soon  as  possible  one  of  the  native  ovan^elasts 
was  sent  thither  to  try  and  rent  a  house ;  but  all  his  efforts  were  abortive. 
The  people,  though  willing  to  let  their  houses,  were  a&aid  to  do  so  without  the 
permission  of  the  mandarins.  Seeing  that  the  authorities  must  be  oonsoltedU 
and  that  much  tune,  and  labour,  and  patience  would  be  saved  by  goii^ 
straightway  to  the  fountain-head,  I  resolved  to  pay  a  friendly  visit  to  the 
viceroy  hims^.  Having  sent  him  a  present  of  oar  principal  religioits  ansL 
scientific  works,  he  was  acquainted  with  my  name,  and  knew  something  of  the 
character  of  my  work.  I  knew  not,  however,  in  what  light  he  regarded  the 
missionary  or  the  missionary  enterprise ;  neither  could  I  coiyecture  how  he 
would  listen  to  my  proposal  to  establish  a  Mission  in  Wu-chang.  Kwan,  the 
viceroy,  had  the  character  of  being  generous  in  spirit,  and,  on  the  whole,  well 
disposed  towards  foreigners.  Knowing  this  to  be  the  case,  I  felt  sure  that  he 
would  receive  me  politely,  nod  his  head  to  everything  I  might  say,  and  give  me, 
at  least,  what  he  would  call  an  tmpfy  promise.  So  I  went  to  see  this  small  king. 
liandarin-lik>e,  he  kept  me  waiting  two  hours,  and,  afber  the  expiration  of  that 
penod,  I  was  tdd  that  the  great  man  was  disengaged,  and  would  bcghtd  to  see 
me.  On  entering,  he  came  to  meet  me,  and  inasted  upon  my  taking  the  aeat  ef 
honour,  whilst  he  himself  sat  below.  Bje  thanked  me  for  the  books  yrhich  he 
had  received  some  time  before,  and  told  me  that  he  had  read  parts  of  some  of 
them.  The  scientific  works  he  seemed  to  value  highly,  and  expressed  a  wish 
to  have  more,  to  give  away  to  some  of  his  literary  friends.  He  had  looked 
through  portions  of  the  New  Testament ;  and  he  put  several  questions  in 
reference  to  its  authorship  and  meaning.  He  wished  to  have  my  opinion  of 
the  three  religions  of  China,  and  begged  to  be  informed  in  what  the  Christian 
region  diifers  from  them.  I  was  only  too  glad  to  have  such  an  excdlent 
opportunity  of  speaking  to  him  on  these  themes,  and  of  tdling  him  9omotliinf 
which  he  knew  not  before.    Of  course  he  was  far  too  polite  to  oontradict  aiqr

HIS  SOPHISTICAL  OBJECTIONS  TO  A  MISSIONARY'S  OBTAINING  A  SETTLEMENT 

IN  THE   CITY. 

"  As  to  my  proposal  to  enter  Wa-chang,  he  had  one  or  two  slight  ohjectionB 
on  the  score  of  our  happiness  and  safety.  The  people  of  Wu-chang  were  very 
ignorant  and  stupid.  He  would  be  very  ha^py  to  have  us  there,  and  to  be  on 
the  most  friendly  terms  with  us;  but  he  could  not  beat  the  thought  of  out 
exposing  oursel  ves  to  insults  and  danger.  He  was  told  that  the  missionary  was 
prepared  to  endure  much,  if  necessary ;  but  that  in  a  city  in  which  he  resided, 
and  over  which  he  exercised  supreme  control,  such  a  necessity  ought  never  to 
Arise.  *  Wetl,'  rejoined  he,  *if  these  objections  are  not  important,  in  your 
judgment,  you  have  my  permission.  Both  nations  are  now  one,  and  there  is 
nothing  impracticable.*  *  Good — very  good,'  replied  1 :  *  your  sentiments  are 
true  and  noble ;  and  now  that  both  natione  are  one,  and  nothing  iaipracticable, 
perhaps  you  would  have  no  objection  to  issue  a  proclamation  to  teU  the  people 
that  th^  may  let  their  houses  to  Mr.  Cox  or  myself;  or,  if  you  prefer  it,  to  give 
me  a  private  letter  which  I  might  show  thos^  whom  it  might  concern.*  In  the 
blandest  manner  he  told  me  that  it  was  not  necessary  to  do  either  the  one  or 
the  other,  as  he  would  inform  the  district  magistrate  of  the  fact,  and  reqmest 
him  to  do  all  that  might  be  necessary  to  ensure  success.  After  partaking  of 
a  quiet  repast  of  soup  and  cakes,  we  parted.  I  knew  that  this  verbal  promise 
would  be  of  but  little  immediate  use  to  me.  Still  I  was  glad  to  have  it;  for,  m 
possession  of  it,  they  would  find  it  difficult  to  expel  me  from  the  city,  should 
it  be  my  good  fortune  ever  to  get  in. 

DfttECTTOir  OP  NATIVE  AETM'tCES. 

**  Thinking  it  worth  while  to  test  his  Excellency's  promise,  a  native  •evaan*. 
geKst  was  sent  over  to  make  another  trial.  He  soon  found,  however,  that  l3»e 
mandarins  had  got  the  start  of  hini.  *Tes;  we  have  a  house  to  let ;  but,  prttf, 
fbr  whom  do  you  want  it  P  Is  it  for  «.  foreigner  ?*  In  every  case  this  was 
one  of  the  firart.  "qnestions  put  to  him.  To  tell  them  that  the  foreign  pasfcot* 
kttd  seen  the  viceroy  and  obtained  his  permission,  was  of  no  use.  They  did 
not  beli<jve  in  mere  *  mouth  promise.'  That  might  do  for  the  foreigner,  bnt 
woiild  not  do  for  them.  Let  the  pastor  get  a  proclamation  posted  on  the  walls, 
and  they  would  be  satisfied.  Doubtless  the  first  thing  Kwan  did,  after  I  left 
him,  was  to  issttc  private  instmctions  to  the  citizens  to  the  effect  that  i!tref 
must  neither  sell  nor  M  to  a  foi-eigner  in  the  city  of  "Wu-chang.  I  then  called 
on  the  district  magistrate;  but,  as  he  was  engaged  with  the  military  examim»' 
iHoh  which  was  taking  place  at  the  time,  1  had  to  return  withont  having  seen 
him.  On  the  following  day  I  wrote  him  a  letter,  telling  him  that  1  had 
smiled  on  his  Excellency  the  viceroy ;  that  I  had  received  permission  to  reside 
in  the  city ;  and  that  his  Excellency  had  promised  to  inform  him  of  the  fact,  «nd 
to  recfoest  him  to  render  me  the  necessary  aid ;  and  that,  therefore,  he  Wotdd 
greatly  oblige  me  by  informfaig  the  people  that  such  was  the  case,  they  beittf 
tittsM  to  let  to  a  foreigner  withont  his  special  permission.  In  reply  to  thfs 
lie  Bent  me  a  beatttlfltdfy  obliging,  pofite,  absord  not^^^ifete  stieh  as  no  other 


80  MISSIONARY  MA6AZDIB 

than  a  Chinese  official  could  write.  He  acknowledged  my  right  to  reside  in 
the  city,  and  assared  me  that  there  was  nothing  within  the  limits  of  his 
power  that  he  would  not  willingly  do.  His  Excellency  the  viceroy  having 
said  Yes,  it  was  not  for  him  to  say  No ;  but,  from  time  inmiemorial,  the 
magistrates  have  never  interfered  with  the  private  property  of  the  people,  and 
therefore,  he  could  do  nothing  in  this  matter.  He  would  advise  me  to  go 
myself  among  the  people,  and  try  and  buy  or  rent.  If  I  succeeded,  I  might 
calculate  on  his  friendship  and  help  in  every  time  of  need.  Such  was  the 
purport  of  his  reply,  very  valuable  for  future  use,  though  worse  than  worth- 
less at  the  time. 

"  Seeing  that  all  attempts  to  enter  Wu-chang  at  that  time  would  be  made 
in  vain,  and  finding  that  the  superintending  of  the  buildings  in  Han-kow 
would  take  up  most  of  my  spare  time  for  several  months,  I  dismissed  the 
subject  from  my  mind,  hoping  to  be  able  to  take  it  up  again  under  more  pro- 
pitious circumstances. 

BBNEWED  ATTBMPT  TO  OBTAIN  BUILBINO  LAND  IN  THE  CITT. 

"About  this  time  last  year  I  began  to  feel  that  it  was  high  time  to  make 
another  attempt  to  introduce  the.  Gospel  into  Wu-chang.  But  how  was  it  to 
be  done  P  It  would  not  do  to  try  and  rent  or  buy  in  my  own  name.  This 
plan  had  failed.  Moreover,  it  seems  doubffkl  whether  a  foreigner  has  the 
right  to  hold  property  anywhere  except  at  the  treaty  ports.  It  struck  me  that 
I  could  do  nothing  better  than  request  our  principal  native  evangelist  to  buy 
a  piece  of  ground  in  his  name  for  the  native  church,  feeling  certain  that  if 
the  religious  toleration  clause  in  the  treaty  meant  anything  at  aU,  he  had 
perfect  right  to  do  so.  The  plan  was  no  sooner  matured  than  it  was  laid 
before  him,  for  his  adoption  or  rejection.  He  took  it  up  immediately,  and 
one  of  our  deacons,  a  native  of  the  place,  promised  to  help  him  to  the  utmost 
extent  of  his  power.  They  were  charged  to  adhere  strictly  to  the  truth,  and 
by  no  means  to  deny  that  the  land  was  intended  to  build  a  chapel  upon,  if 
asked.  They  both  went  immediately,  and  in  a  few  days  the  ground  was 
oought.  No  time  was  lost  in  getting  the  deeds  registered  at  the  mandarin 
office,  and  in  obtaining  the  official  signature.  With  these  duly  registered  and 
authenticated  documents  in  my  possession,  I  could  afford  to  smile  at  any 
storm  which  mandarin  rage  might  create.  I  made  the  following  entry  on  the 
day  on  which  the  land  was  bought : — 

"  *  January  20ih,  1864. — ^A  piece  of  ground  has  been  bought  to-day  in  Wu- 
chang for  the  native  church.  The  site  is  on  one  of  the  principal  streets,  and 
the  ground  is  about  60  feet  wide  by  160  long.  On  this  I  hope  to  be  able  to 
put  up  suitable  buildings  after  the  festivities  of  the  Chinese  new  year  are 
over.  I  anticipate  difficulties  yet ;  but,  with  Gk>d's  blessing,  the  attempt  will 
be  successfiiL 

"  The  former  landloixl  promised  to  have  the  ground  cleared  by  the  end  of 
March,  when  it  would  be  formally  handed  over  to  my  native  assistant.  Before 
the  expiration  of  this  period,  however,  the  mandariTiB  had  found  out  what  was 
going  on.  The  land-holder  was  summoned  to  appear  before  the  departmental 
magistrate,  and  charged  with  the  crime  of  having  sold  his  land  to  a  foreigner. 
He  denied  the  charge,  and  declared,  what  was  strictly  true,  that  he  did  not 


FOB  APRIL,    1866.  81 

know  that  a  foreigner  liad  anything  to  do  with  it.  '  Well,'  said  the  mandarin, 
'  if  yon  did  not  know  to  whom  you  were  seUing  the  ground,  I  know  for  what 
purpose  it  was  boaght.  Yon  go  at  once  and  see  Sheng-tca-sin' — ^my  principal 
natiye  assistant — '  and  tell  him,  that  if  he  intends  the  gronnd  for  his  own 
prirate  nse,  he  may  keep  it;  but  that,  if  he  intends  it  for  religions  purposes, 
he  had  better  have  nothing  more  to  do  with  it,  as  he  values  his  life.'  This 
message  was  delivered  on  the  Ist  of  AprU.  On  the  following  day  I  wrote  the 
district  magistrate  a  long  letter,  in  which  I  informed  him  of  the  real  state  of 
things.    The  letter  was  to  the  following  effect : — 

MB.  JOHN'S  LBTTBB  TO  THE  DI8TBICT  MAaiSTBATE. 

"'I  am  an  Englishman,  and  a  Missionary  of  the  Beligion  of  Jesus. 
According  to  the  treaty  of  Tientsin,  all  who  preach  and  teach  Christianity 
are  entitled  to  the  protection  and  kind  consideration  of  the  magistrates. 
Natives,  also,  who  profess  or  teach  Christianity  are  entitled  to  the  same 
privileges.  Moreover,  a  British  subject  is  entitled  to  all  the  rights,  privileges, 
and  fibvours  which  may  be  conferred  on  the  subjects  of  any  other  government. 
Now,  if  the  natives  of  this  place  have  a  right  to  profess  and  propagate  the 
Christian  religion,  they  have  surely  the  right  to  procure  the  necessary  build- 
ings for  that  purpose ;  and  if  British  subjects  have  a  right  to  aU  the  privileges 
enjoyed  by  the  subjects  of  other  governments,  then  I,  as  a  Missionary  of  the 
Beligion  of  Jesus,  have  the  right  to  be  in  Wu-chang,  where  priests  of  the 
Boman  Catholic  religion  are.  Besides  all  this,  on  my  arrival  here  I  called  on 
the  viceroy  to  inform  him  of  my  office  and  the  nature  of  my  work,  and  to  ask 
his  permiBsion  to  carry  on  my  work  in  Wu-chang.  His  Excellency  received 
me  very  politely ;  and,  in  the  presence  of  the  Rev.  J.  Cox,  and  of  several 
Chinese  officials,  he  openly  told  me  that  he  gave  me  his  permission,  adding  the 
remark  that,  the  two  nations  being  one,  there  was  nothing  impracticable. 
Tou  cannot  suppose  that  so  great  a  man  as  his  Excellency  would  act  without 
thought,  talk  empty  sounds,  or  was  capable  of  eating  his  words.  Again,  in 
reply  to  my  letter,  the  district  magistrate  acknowledges  the  fact  that  the 
viceroy  had  given  his  permission,  and  requests  me  to  go  among  the  people 
myself  to  buy  or  rent ;  and  he  assures  me  that  I  may  calculate  on  his  willing- 
ness to  render  me  every  help  within  the  limits  of  Ids  power.  This  letter  is 
now  in  my  possession,  and  may  be  produced  whenever  needed.  Thus,  having 
the  right  by  treaty  to  carry  on  my  work  in  Wu-chang,  and  having  the  per- 
mission of  the  highest  authority  in  these  two  provinces  to  do  so,  and  having 
been  advised  by  the  district  magistrate  to  try  and  rent  or  purchase  without 
his  aid,  I  requested  our  principal  native  assistant  to  go  and  buy  a  piece  of 
land.  The  land  was  soon  bought  and  paid  for,  and  the  title-deeds  were 
officially  registered  and  sealed.  I  enclose  a  copy  of  the  old  deed,  so  that  you 
may  see  that  the  transaction  was  in  every  respect  regular  and  valid.  Having 
thus  done  everything  in  strict  conformity  with  the  great  principles  of  justice 
and  mutual  regard,  I  was  surprised  to  learn  yesterday  that  the  former  owner 
of  the  ground  would  not  hand  it  over,  because  the  magistrates  declare  that 
the  missionary  has  no  right  to  reside,  and  carry  on  his  work,  in^the  city  of 
Wu-chang.  Can  this  be  true?  Has  not  the  landlord  mistaken  hi4]^cellency's 
meaning  P  Have  the  goodness  to  inquire  into  the  matter,  and  please  com- 
mand the  parties  concerned  to  hand  over  the  ground  without  delay.'

'  What  can  be  done  to  keep  the  barbarian  oat  ?'  That  was  the  grand  queatioa. 
It  won't  do  to  tell  him  that  he  has  no  right  to  be  ha-e ;  for,  as  he  aaja,  t^ 
Bomaa  Catholic  priests  are  here.  It  is  of  no  use  objecting  on  the  gfrovnd  that

though  the  promise  meant  nothing,  still  it  would  nercr  do  for  us  to  saj  so.

arail  th^n  nou^t  in  a  case  like  this.  His  counsel  was  rq^ected.  Another 
then  suggested  that  I  had  better  be  told  that  this  piece  of  ground  was  puUie 
property,  that  it  did  not  bdong  to  the  person  who  clandestinely  ndid  it,  that 
the  deeds,  therefore,  must  be  returned  to  them  and  the  money  returned  to  new 
and  that  1  must  look  out  for  another  pieoe.  They  were  all  greatly  charmed 
with  this  bright  idea;  and  they  doubtless  thought  that  Wu-chaag  might  jet

came,  conveying  the  above  in  substance.  I  replied  that  the  land  mas*  liare 
be^i  the  private  property  of  the  man  who  sold  it,  the  old  deeds  pnmng  thia 
beyondthepossilnlity  of  adoubt.  I  assured  them  tiiat  ihey  woald  newer  gek 
back  ^e  deeds  on  such  a  plea,  and  therefore  begged  them  to  get  the  land 
transferred  to  me  without  delay. 

"  After  this,  ike  scholars,  gentry,  and  pec^le  took  the  matter  xxp,  Thcry 
petitioned  the  mandarins  nctto  allow  me  to  build  in  their  fiunoosoitj.  About 
two  or  three  hundred  of  tkem  would  go  in  a  body  and  besiege  the  mandasin 
office,  and  entreat  his  hono«r  not  to  permit  me  to  enter  iSie  eity  with  my  per- 
nicious doctrine,  to  poison  the  minds  of  the  people  and  subvert  thco'  owstoan^ 
Placards  were  posted  upon  ike  city  wall,  reprobating  my  attempt  to  build  in 
the  city  of  Wu-chang,  calling  upon  the  people  to  resist  it  with  mtk  their  mighi» 
threatening  any  natives  who  might  assist  with  rengeance,  and  swearing  that 
they  would  p^dl  the  buildings  down  as  soon  as  they  were  up.  T^j  i

THB  BEWARD  OP  PEBSEVEEING  EFFORTS  IN  A  GOOD  CAUSX, 

•*  During  this  wild  ferment  I  paid  the  magistrate  two  or  three  visits, 
several  letters  passed  between  us.  At  last  he  offered  to  get  me  another  piece 
of  land  himself^  if  I  would  only  give  up  this.  Seeing  that  they  were  wishful 
to  come  to  a  speedy  settlement,  and  that  they  were  only  anxious  to  do  so 
without  appearing  ridiculous  by  letting  me  have  the  pieoe  which  th^  had 
declared  to  hepuhlic  property,  and  therefore  unlawfully  sold  to  me,  I  expressed 
my  wiBirigness  to  exchange  the  original  piece  for  another  equally  convenient* 
good,  and  cheap.  Then,  thinking  that  they  had  me  now,  they  tried  to  banish

price,  the  land  was  aold  to  me  for  aearly  what  I  had  offered.  The  depart- 
mental and  diflttriet  nragistrates  themselves  drew  out  the  deeds,  and  sent  them 
me  with  their  seals  affixed  to  them.  I  received  them  on  the  10th  July.  They 
were  immediately  transferred  to  the  London  Missionary  Society,  and  as  such 
registered  at  the  British  Consulate,  Han-kow.  The  magistrates  issued  a 
jprodamation,  as  soon  as  the  affair  was  settled,  to  inform  the  people  that  the 
land  had  been  boi^ght  by  me,  and  that  J  had  a  right,  aoootdiag  to  treaty^  to

men  almost  incapaiUe  of  speaking  the  truth,  or  of  acting  honestly.  The 
native  evangelist  and  the  deacon  had  many  an  anrious  hour;  and  it  was  as 
much  as  I  could  do  to  keep  their  spirits  up.  Frightened  by  adverse  reports 
from  Wu-chang,  they  would  come  sometimee  at  midnight  for  consolation. 
But  though  the  stru^e  was  rather  irksome  at  ihe  time,  I  am  glad  of  it  now.

do  much  good.  He  is  a  Christian  in  deed  and  in  truth,  and  evidently  anziofas 
to  devote  his  energies  to  the  work  of  an  evangelist.  He  was  a  big^j 
respectable  merchant,  and  he  is  now  in  comfortable  droumstanees.  His

OxTE  Mission  in  this  city  continues  to  present  an  amount  of  strength  and 
prosperity  exceeding  that  of  any  other  in  China.  The  aggregate  number  of 
native  Christians  in  the  Mission  Churches  in  and  around  Ahoy  is  nearlj/aur

CAPTTJBE  OF  THB  CXTT  OF  CHIANG  CHIU  BY  THE  TABPIKa  INSTTBGEKTS. 

"  Amoy,  January,  1865. 
*'  Deab  Bbotheb,— The  great  Head  of  the  Church  has  Beem  fit,  in  His  infi- 
nite wisdom,  to  bring  upon  His  disciples  in  this  region  unexpected  and  severe 
judgments.  You  will  ere  this  have  heard  of  the  capture  of  the  city  of  Chiang 
Chiu  by  a  body  of  rebels  forming  a  remnant  of  those  who  were  scattered  after 
the  recovery  of  Nanking  by  the  Imperialists.  Ever  since  the  14th  of  October 
last  Chiang  Chiu  has  been  in  the  possession  of  men  who,  whatever  be  the 
religion  they  may  profess,  exhibit  themselves  as  despisers  of  all  morality,  and 
are,  in  £act,  mmrderers,  robbers,  and  adulterers,  whose  only  object  is  the 
gratification  of  their  own  unrestrained  passions,  at  whatever  cost  <d  happiness 
or  life  to  their  unoffending  fellow-countzymen.  Powers  of  government  they 
have  never  showed  themselves  possessed  of:  they  are,  emphatically, '  birds  of 
prey  and'  of  passage,'  and  amply  deserve  the  destruction  they  mete  out  to 
others.    But  this  merited  chastisement  the  Imperialists  have  hitherto  been 


FOR  APRIL,    1865.  85 

unable  to  inflict,  and,  on  the  contrary,  haye  met  with  seyera)  seyere  losses. 
They  are  reassembling  tiieir  forces,  to  the  number  of  thirty  or  forty  thousand 
men ;  and,  though  the  struggle  will  be  a  fierce  one,  we  trust  it  will  result  in 
the  suppression  of  this  reyolt  against  a  goyemment  which,  whateyer  be  its 
defects,  is  &r  less  inimical  to  the  wel&te  of  the  people  than  the  sway  of  these 
lawless  depredators. 

"  What  chiefly  interests  us,  as  missionaries,  is  the  fskte  of  our  conyerts  in  that 
city.  Some,  whose  houses  were  outside  the  walls,  haye  succeeded  in  escaping, 
and  haye  been  kindly  treated  by  their  Chinese  brethren  in  Amoy.  But  one 
of  our  ablest  nadye  preachers,  who  has  been  longest  stationed  at  Chiang 
Ohiu  (named  Teng-hong),  has  not  been  heard  of  since  its  capture ;  and  we  are 
equally  ignorant  of  the  fate  of  the  natiye  Christians  resident  within  the  city. 
Much  interest  is  felt  in  them  by  our  Christian  conyerts  here,  and  daily  prayer 
is  offered  on  their  behalf;  but  hitherto  all  efforts  to  saye  them,  or  eyen  to 
obtain  information  respecting  them,  haye  proyed  wholly  unayaUing.  We 
can  only  commend  them  to  the  care  of  the  Diyine  and  omnipotent  Sayiour, 
in  the  hope  that,  in  His  own  good  time  and  way,  He  will  grant  help  and 
ddiyerance. 

ENCOTTBAaiNG  PBOOBESS  OV  THE  MISSION. 

"  At  some  of  the  country  stations  we  continue  to  receiye  encouraging  proofs 
of  the  Diyine  blessing  accompanying  the  labours  of  His  senrants.  The 
attendance  on  the  seryices  in  Elwan  El'au  has  somewhat  diminished ;  but  the 
withdrawal  of  a  number  whose  motiyes  were  doubtful  is  amply  compensated 
for  by  the  pleasing  eyidence  of  sincerity  and  steadfastness  presented  by  those 
who  remain ;  while  the  baptized  conyerts,  without  exception,  adorn  their  pro- 
fession  of  the  Gospel  by  consistent  and  exemplary  conduct.  In  this  town,  and 
in  An-bin,  Mr.  John  Stronach  has  baptized  nineteen  conyerts  during  this 
half-year ;  and  there  are  many  others  of  whom  we  entertain  good  hopes.  At 
a  yillage  six  miles  from  Hai  Ch'ung  he  baptized  two  zealous  conyerts,  a  man 
and  his  wife,  whose  case  was  referred  to  in  our  last  letter ;  and  they  gladly 
give  up  a  large  room  for  Diyine  sendee  eyery  Sunday,  conducted  regularly  by 
one  of  the  natiye  preachers.  This  is  also  the  case  with  Ang  K'oe,  a  yillage 
about  seyen  miles  distant  from  Elwan  K'au ;  and  thus  those  who  find  it  diffi- 
cult to  go  so  far  as  these  regular  stations  haye  the  Gospel  brought  to  their 
own  doors.  The  Communion  has  been  administered  more  than  once  during 
the  half-year  to  these  warm-hearted  disciples,  who  are  much  pleased  with  the 
▼isits  of  their  foreign  pastor.  Two  of  the  members  of  the  Church  at  An-bin 
baye  died;  one  of  these,  an  old  woman,  giying  happy  eyidence  that  she  died 
in  the  fedth. 

**  In  regard  to  the  Churches  at  Amoy,  we  haye  to  report  that  we  haye  this 
half -year  receiyed  seyenteen  conyerts — ^nine  men  and  eight  women — and  haye 
readmitted,  on  proof  of  repentance,  a  yoxmg  man  who  had  been  excluded  from 
the  Church.  The  daily  sendees  are  tolerably  well  attended  by  occasional 
hearers ;  but  the  excitement  on  account  of  the  proximity  of  the  rebels  tends 
to  diminish  interest  in  purely  spiritual  subjects. 

"  A  room  has  been  rented  on  the  island  of  Ko-hng-iu,  in  which  Diyine  sendee 
is  regularly  conducted  on  the  Lord's  day  by  natiye  preachers,  and  on  Tuesday 
bj  ourselyes,  for  the  benefit  of  the  women  who  attend ;  and  seyeral  of  those

^ '  The  eariy  part  of  my  life/  said  he, '  was  spent  in  Tsin.  In  September, 
1859,  cholera  raged  in  onr  Tiyages,  and  swept  o&  nnmbers.  One  oi  my  fiMids 
was  seized  wxi^  this  dreadfiil  disease,  and,  when  suffering  excmoiating 
pain,  nttered  the  most  agonising  cries  fosr  water :  this  prsdnced  in  »e  great 
agstation  of  mind,  and  from  that  time  forth  I  had  an  intense  desire  to  escape 
sudh  an  awf  al  death.  The  wise  men  of  the  Tillage  gare  ont  to  me  that  no 
kings  Of  asoetios  were  ever  attacked  by  such  diseases,  and,  np<m  hearing  this^ 
I  resdved  to  becoitte  an  ascetic  without  delay.  I  had  also  heard  the  report 
that  a  certain  ascetic  in  our  village,  afler  Hring  four  hnndred  and  fil^  years» 
left  this  wodd  without  seeing  death,  and  I  was  oonsoqueBtly  led  to  think  that 
to  worship  him  woold  not  &il  to  secure  me  xtresertation  from  death  by  ehi^LanL 
I  t^kierefbre  r^nlarly  worshipped  him,  and  used  to  repeat  a  short  mantra,  eoii- 
sisting  of  these  mystic  words,  Hari  Om  Nama  Sivaya,  three  hnndred  and 
twenty-lbar  times  eTcxy  day.  Then  I  befinonded  anoiher  aaeetio,  named 
Mnri^ian,  who  was  likewise  a  worshipper  of  the  person  above  meniionsd* 

"  *  Portly  after  this,  my  friend,  Munigan,  took  me  to  PfevwassTn,  wbera^  m, 
the  temple  of  Snbranumiya,  he  taaght  me  the  mantra»  Om  SaraArtm  Bhmmk^ 
vrhtch  I  made  tiie  suliieot  of  my  soiemn  meditatioin  from  that  tisse  £orA.  I 
wias  also  ins<B*Beted  in  some  other  things^  so^  as  the  Siva  yoya  JPtorsey.  Ob. 
naeihiyr  oeeasion  he  taaght  me  the  single  letter  of  Rudarm  Mtmirm,  as  wvU  as 
the  Falay  MuiUtm,  aaof  whidi  I  niterod,  but  wiiheat  feeling  any  faappiar  far 
the  strict  observance  of  them. 

"  *  During  this  time  some  Christians  from  Nagercoil  were  in  the  habit  of 
coming  to  read  to  us  on  Snndays,  with  whom  I  often  reasoned  on  religious 
points.  Soon  I  became  acquainted  with  the  assistant  misskmary,  who^  sa  one 
occasion  when  I  called  at  his  house,  showed  me  the  Lord's  Prayer.  I  took 
with  me  a  copy  of  this  prayer  on  a  palmyra-leaf,  and  used  to  repeat  it  every 
day,  in  addition  to  the  other  mantras  above  mentioned.  Some  time  after  I 
received  a  tract  from  the  Christians,  called  "  Divine  Teaching,"  by  a  perusal 
of  which  I  obtained  an  acquaintance  with  the  vile  characters  of  Brahma  and 
Tiahnoo,  which  I  felt  to  be  very  disgusting.  With  a  dieteanination  to  sescch 
the  Christian  Scriptures,  my  teacher,  myself  and  another  pecson  went  to 
Mr.  Duthie,  and  requested  hhn  to  give  us  a  New  Testament.  He  presented 
xis  each  with  a  copy  of  the  Gk)spel  by  Matthew,  which  we  read  carefully ; 
and,  as  we  came  down  to  the  5th  chapter,  we  felt  deeply  interested  in  the 
precious  truths  inculcated  therein. 

**  *  My  daily  ^»yer  was,  "  Lord,  renreal  the  troth  onto  me  a  sinner,  ignonmt 
of  what  the  truth  is."  But  still  I  could  not  obtain  a  clear  knowledge  of  the 
Saviour.     One  day,  however,  Davadasan,  evangelist,  came  to  the  heathen

pagoda  or  temple  where  I  and  my  companions  were  meeting  together  for 
prajers,  and  explained  to  us  the  5Ui  chapter  of  Matthew ;  and,  alter  this,  we 
determined  to  attend  the  Thnrsdaj-night  prajer-meetings  in  the  Nageroofl 
chapeL  So  we  did  for  two  weeks,  but  afterwards  we  disoontinaed  it  through 
fear ;  nevertheless,  I  used  to  repeat  with  increased  earnestness  mj  daily  prayer 
mentioned  above. 

**  *  In  coarse  of  time  it  occurred  to  me  that,  by  the  observance  of  the  Sabbath, 
I  might  have  leisure  to  read  the  Bible  and  understand  it,  and  so  I  ventured 
again  to  attend  Divine  service  in  the  chapel  on  Sundays.  The  conversation  I 
had  once  with  Paul  Monitor  produced  very  good  feelings  in  my  mind;  and,  as 
I  regularly  attended  service  on  Sundays,  the  assistant  missionaty  presented 
me  with  a  New  Testament  and  a  book  of  prayers,  the  perusal  of  which 
strengthened  my  fiedth  much.  But  I  had  not  the  boldness  to  come  forward 
and  profess  myself  a  disciple  of  Ohrist.  Mr.  Duthie  also  often  advised  me 
that,  the  time  being  shoirt,  the  present  is  the  best  opportunily  to  seek  salva- 
tion ;  and,  upon  a  serious  meditation  of  his  advice,  I  resolved  to  become  a 
Ohiistian,  and,  as  you  see  now,  I  stand  before  the  Lord  and  this  assembly, 
here  publicly  to  dedicate  myself  to  Christ 

**  *  I  earnestly  entreat  you,  my  dear  brethren,  to  pray  on  my  behalf  that  God 
would  preserve  me  fiEdthidl  unto  the  end  in  the  covenant  which  I  have  made, 
henceforth  to  renounce  the  works  and  ways  of  the  heathen,  and  be  a  diBci{de 
of  Jesus  Christ.' 

"  The  converts  to  Christianity  have  been  as  yet  mainly  from  one  class  of  the 
population  here,  namely,  the  Shanars ;  but  there  are  many  indications  around 
us  that  the  '  whole  lump'  is  being  leavened.  €k>d  is  indeed  working  in  our 
midst.  We  have  just  been  making  up  the  statistics  of  the  entire  Mission  for 
last  year,  and  find  that  we  have  now  upwards  of  twbntt-fitx  thousahd 
professing  Christians,  under  regular  instruction,  who  have  raised  for  religioas 
purposes,  during  last  year,  the  astonishingly  large  sum  (it  is  indeed 
oitoniaUng)  of  7836  rupees,  or  £783  12^.— foots  these  which  the  opponents  of 
Missions  would  find  some  difficulty  in  explaining  away. 

**  Believe  me, 

**  Yours  very  foithfnlly, 

"  Bbv.  a.  Tidman,  D.D."  "  J.  Duthie.

AinriVESSABT  OF  THE  LOHDOV  HISSIONABT  SOCIETT. 
SEYENTT-PIKST  GENERAL  MEETING. 

"We  have  been  priTileged  to  witaiess  the  return  of  the  Beason  of  our  sacred 
festivities,  when,  as  in  the  olden  time,  the  pious  Jews  went  up  to  worship 
at  Jerusalem ;  so  the  Christians  of  our  native  land  resort  in  groups  to  the 
Metropolis,  to  have  their  hearts  kindled  and  their  zeal  invigorated  by  genial 
intercourse  with  fellow-Christians,  and  by  listening  to  tidings  from  foreign 
lands  of  the  advance  of  the  Redeemer's  kingdom.  At  the  various  services 
and  meetings  attended  by  the  friends  and  constituents  of  the  Society  a  lively 
interest  has  been  manifested  in  the  cause  of  Missions,  and  every  indication  of 
the  approach  of  brighter  days  for  Madagascar,  for  China,  and  for  India,  in 
the  wide  and  universal  diffusion  of  the  glorious  Gospel,  has  been  hailed  by 
the  people  of  God  with  the  wannest  emotions  of  gratitude  and  joy.  Some 
clouds  have  indeed  at  times  gathered  over  the  scene.  The  Missionary  Ship — 
the  Children's  Ship—was  ingulfed  in  the  waves  of  the  South  Pacific  Ocean; 
and  some  of  the  beautiful  islands  that  adorn  that  ocean— islands  recently 
redeemed  from  the  curse  of  Paganism — have  been  threatened  with  the 
deprivation  of  their  newly  acquired  Christian  privileges.  But  happily  those 
clouds  have  gradually  dispersed ;  despondency  and  discouragement  have  given 
place  to  renewed  hope  and  confidence;  and  those  things  which  at  one  time 
seemed  to  present  hindrances  to  the  progress  of  the  Gospel  have,  in  the 
plenitude  of  the  Divine  mercies,  served  only  to  extend  its  beneficent 
influence.  Digit  zed  by  L.O Ogle

amaaber  of  dssKha  asMmg  iu  £uthful  Miasionaries.  Fifteen— e^ht  devoted  men,  and  seven 
Chiiatiaii  women— died  dvring  1864,  and  liar  the  ^eater  part  they  were  called  to  rest  from 
their  laboora  wba%  to  our  hepea  and  expectations,  those  labours  were  but  just  commenced. 

The  RsT.  Aabon  Bvzacoit,  one  of  the  first  and  most  soocessful  evangelists  in  Baro- 
iooga,  had  heme  the  heat  and  burden  of  a  long  day ;  but,  with  this  exception,  and  that  of 
Mr.  and  Mrs.  P.  lb  Brun,  of  Maanthis,  our  departed  brethren  and  friends  were  all 
juniors,  both  in  age  and  labours.  Mr.  and  Mrs.  Bird  had  not  spent  more  than  four  yeara 
in  Samoa;  while  the  short  career  of  Mr.  Mills  and  Mrs.  WHiTMEB,of  the  same  Mission, 
nsuat  be  nueabeBed  by  months  instead  of  yeara.  In  China  Mrs.  Thomas  found  her  grave 
-•ix  moaths  after  her  arrival;  Mrs.  Macoowak,  after  four  years'  reaidesioe,  died  on  her 
▼oyage  homeward ;  and  Dr.  Wslls  was  also  buried  in  die  deep  before  he  could  reach  the  . 
termination  of  his  voyage.  Mr.  Stagg  and  Mrs.  Pearsb  fell,  the  former  within  eighteen 
asantfas,  and  the  latter  within  six  asosths  of  their  entrance  on  Madagascar.  Mr.  Slliott, 
in  Sosith  Africa,  and  Mr.  Dsxckis,  in  Travanoore,  both  young  men,  were  aoddenly  removed 
tfy  dangerons  diaeases,  each  leaving  a  widow  and  family. 

These  are  heavy  losses  to  the  Society,  bitter  disappointments  to  the  Directors,  and  deep 
sfliotiens  to  boeaved  friends ;  yet  may  we  rejoice  amidst  these  varied  tribalationa.  He  to 
isrhom  their  early  life  was  oosiaeccated  kept  them  faithful  unto  death :  they  feU  in  the  field 
with  their  faces  to  the  lae ;  and  now  each  conqueror  wears  the  crown  of  life  which  he 
receivBd  at  the  hand  of  his  Lord.  Whike  recognising  in  these  manifbld  and  aflboting 
ioatancea  of  mortality  the  inscrutable  judgments  of  the  Lord,  and  marking  His  ways,  which 
are  past  finding  out,  it  behoves  ns,  in  the  spirit  of  filial  submission  and  adoring  trust,  to 
say,  **  The  Lord  gave,  and  the  Lord  hath  taken  away ;  blessed  be  the  naaae  of  the  Lord  1" 

Within  the  last  seven  years  the  Society  has  been  enabled  to  send  forth  many  additional 
labourers  to  distant  fidds  of  promise ;  but  to-day  we  hear  the  voice  from  many  graves, 
*'  AXL  fiesh  is  grass,  and  all  the  goodUness  thereof  is  as  the  flower  of  the  field."  And,  while 
stimulated  to  greater  diligence  to  send  forth  more  labourers,  men  who  shall  be  b^tized  for

the  dead,  we  ire  reminded  of  our  absolate  dependence  on  onr  efer-liTuig  SaTionr  ''Jens 
Christ,  the  same  yetterdij,  and  to-daj,  and  for  ever." 

By  these  nnmerons  instances  of  mortality  in  onr  countrymen  we  are  tangfat  alao  with 
great  distinctness  the  importance  of  a  Native  Minuirp;  and,  instead  of  depending  oo 
an  increased  nnmber  of  foreignen  equal  to  the  wants  of  the  world,  the  best  thongfate 
and  exertions,  sanctified  by  fervent  prayer,  should  be  put  forth  by  the  friends  of  Misaioni 
to  strengthen  and  increase  the  various  classes  of  Native  agents. 

In  addition  to  eight  Missionaries  deceased,  six  others,  through  age,  sidmess,  or  other 
causes,  have  retired  from  active  service.  Yet,  notwithstanding  this  serious  diminution  in 
the  number  of  our  agents,  the  Directors  have  been  enabled  during  the  past  year  to  add  to 
the  Missionary  band  more  than  an  equal  number ;  and  before  the  close  of  the  present  year 
they  expect  the  gratification  of  appointing  twelve  new  labourers,  when  the  total  nomher 
of  the  Society's  agents  will  amount  to  One  hundred  and  eeveniy-nme.  Of  these,  there  will 
be  stationed  in  Polynesia  Tweniy^eijc;  in  the  WnsT  iMDina  Tmeniy-twof  in  Sovth 
Africa  Thirty-nine;  in  China  Twenty;  in  India.  Sixty ;  and  in  MADAOAjscAn  TmUo%s 
—making  a  total* of  One  hundred  and  seventy-nine,  including  Ten  ordained  Native 
ministers.  In  addition,  the  Society  employs  upwards  of  Seven  humdred  Native  laboorat. 
Including  Evangelists,  Catechists,  and  Schoolmasters. 

The  number  of  accepted  candidates  for  Mission  service  has  been  Forty »nje.  Of  these^ 
ten  have  spent  the  last  year  of  their  academical  course  with  peculiar  advantage  at  the 
Sodety's  Institution,  Highgate,  under  the  judicious  instruction  and  paternal  oversight  of 
the  Rny.  J.  S.  Wardlaw,  M.A.,  the  resident  tutor. 

The  Rbt.  Ebbnbzbb  Pbout,  after  six  years  of  service  as  TravelHng  Agent  of  the  Society* 
and  subsequently  thirteen  as  Home  Secretary,  has  recently  felt  under  the  neceaaity  of 
relinquishing  his  office.  The  Directors,  both  of  town  and  country,  judged  that  the  interest 
of  the  Society  require  that  its  several  officers  should  render  their  assistance  by  advocating 
its  claims  in  the  pulpit,  and  by  attending  the  annnal  meetings  of  its  Auxiliary  Societies  in 
different  parts  of  the  country.  To  these  public  duties  Mr.  Front,  from  the  state  of  his 
health,  considered  himself  unequal,  and  therefore  resigned  his  office  in  March  last.  On 
receiving  this  communication,  the  Directors  resolved— 

"  That  the  resignation  of  the  Rev.  Ebenezer  Prout  be  accepted.  Also  that,  in  accept' 
ing  his  resignation,  the  Board  very  cordislly  renews  the  sentiments  contained  in 
the  Resolution  of  the  Special  Committee,  and  adopted  by  the  Meeting  of  Town 
and  Country  Directors  on  the  8th  of  March,  expressing  their  high  respect  for  his 
character,  their  kind  regard  for  his  person,  and  their  approval  of  his  official 
services,  so  far  as  the  state  of  his  health  has  allowed  him  to  discharge  thenu" 

The  short  period  which  has  elapsed  since  the  retirement  of  Mr.  Prout  haabeeninaniBcient 
to  allow  the  Directors  to  select  any  gentleman  as  his  luecessor  for  nomination  at  tfab 
Meeting ;  but  they  will  not  fail  at  the  earliest  practicable  moment  to  carry  into  exeenlios 
this  important  service. 

At  the  successive  Meetings  of  Town  and  Country  Dfarectors,  hdd  26th  January  and 
8th  March,  the  subject  of  employing  two  Secretaries  in  the  Home  Department  was  seiioosly 
considered,  and,  as  the  result  of  extended  deliberation,  they  unanimously  resolved  to  eom* 
mend  the  measure  to  their  constituents.  For  ten  years  past  it  has  been  found  essential  Ua 
the  interests  of  the  Society  that  such  an  arrangement  should  be  virtually  acted  on.  Slaoc 
the  year  1855  the  Rbv.  Wm.  Fairbrothbr  has,  with  untiling  diligence  and  with  singular 
efficiency,  prosecuted  such  a  course  of  service.  To  his  unwearied  and  acceptable  labourt— 
chiefly  among  the  Auxiliaries  and  Associations  throughout  the  country — the  Society  hu 
been  largely  indebted  both  for  the  maintenance  and  increase  of  its  funds ;  and  the  Direetors 
judge  that  it  vrill  yet  further  advance  the  interests  of  the  Society  that  Mr.  Fairbrothcr 
should,  as  an  expression  of  their  confidence  and  regard,  be  invested  with,  the^o^ce  of  joint

Home  Sacrettrj,  tpecially  in  ftpplieatioii  to  the  department  of  aenrice  which  he  haa  aUeady 
discharged  with  so  much  honour  to  himself  and  advantage  to  the  Institution. 

On  the  gentlemen  hereafter  to  be  associated  in  the  Home  Secretariat  will  devolve  the 
bustness  of  the  Mission  Honse,  the  correspondence  of  the  Sodetj,  and  the  superintendence 
and  vbitation  of  Auxiliaries  both  in  London  and  the  surrounding  districts.  This  twofold 
arrangement  will  involve  but  little  increase  in  the  amount  of  salaries,  while,  we  feel 
assured,  it  will  tend  greatly  to  advance  the  income  of  the  Society,  and  ensure  increased 
activity  and  satisfaction  among  its  constituents  and  friends. 

The  state  of  the  Society's  fnnds  for  the  year  is  presented  in  the  following  abstract  :—

P0LTNB8IA. 

In  the  several  groups  of  itkndt  eastward,  in  which  Christianit  j  was  introduced  twenty, 
thirty,  and  forty  years  since,  our  Missionaries  have  faithfully  prosecuted  their  Tarioa 
departments  of  service,  and  the  Lord  of  the  harvest  has  richly  rewarded  their  labours. 

In  Tahiti,  where  Popery  under  French  patronage  has  for  many  years  put  forth  its 
utmost  power  to  seduce  the  Native  Christians  from  their  steadfastness,  the  Protestant 
Churches  have  increased  both  in  numbers  and  strength.  The  Rev.  Geoeob  Mo&mte,  our 
Missionary  in  that  island,  writes — 

**  By  the  present  mail  I  forward  my  annual  abeet  for  1864.  I  rejoice  in  finding  ifc  will 
bear  such  a  favourable  comparison  with  that  I  sent  last  year. 

'*  The  great  event  of  the  year  is  the  arrival  of  the  new  edition  of  the  Tahitian  Bible  with 
marginal  references.  The  hearty  reception  which  it  has  met  with,  and  the  eagemeas  with 
with  which  it  has  been  purchased,  form  a  most  gratif^g  fact,  and  aflbrd  a  favomUe^ 
omen  for  the  future. 

**  Out  of  982  dollars  received  for  sales  of  the  new  edition,  upwards  of  900  have  beea  lor 
sales  direct  from  the  d^pdt  in  Papeete.  Wor^s  cannot  express  how  my  heart  la  rejoiced 
lit  this  precious  seed  being  scattered  broadcast  amongst  the  natives.  The  tale  of  the  triati 
and  sorrows  of  the  Tahitians  is  familiar  to  you ;  but,  as  leng  as  the  Word  of  God  it  circa* 
lated  amongst  them,  so  long  will  they  continue  steadfast  in  the  faith  embraced  by  their 
fathers,  and  so  long  will  they  be  impregnable  to  the  manifold  assaults  of  wily  and  designing 
men. 

**  Upwards  of  351,000  sheets  have  been  printed  at  the  press;  and  the  gratuitous  drcnla- 
tion  has  exceeded  10,000,  comprising  fiibles,  Testaments,  Tracts,  and  Sehod-books,  in 
TahMan,  French,  and  English. 

"  Besides  being  extensively  scattered  in  Tahiti  and  other  islands,  many  of  these  have 
been  given  to  the  various  ships — English,  American,  and  French — which  have  called  at  our 
port.  This,  we  trust,  will  be  as  bread  cast  upon  the  waters,  to  be  seen  after  many  days. 
The  value  and  importance  of  this  branch  of  our  agency,  in  a  place  like  Tahiti,  can  hardly 
be  over-estimated. 

«The  Tahitian  subscription  to  the  Society  is  encouraging;  and  I  think  you  frill  eattf 
tain  the  same  opinion  when  I  tell  you  that  upwards  of  £90  comes  from  our  little  congr^a« 
tion  at  the  Bethel  Chapel. 

*'  Our  Schools  are  increasing  in  nurobera  and  improving  in  quality.  Their  standing  is 
higher  than  at  the  close  of  last  year ;  but  we  have  still  very  much  room  for  improvement. 
We  regard  the  Day  and  Sabbath  Schools  as  one  of  the  most  important  parts  of  our  sphere 
of  labour,  and  therefore  desire  to  cultivate  it  with  care,  praying  that  God's  blessing  may 
rest  upon  our  labours. 

"  I  am  glad  to  be  able  to  state  that  my  relationship  with  the  Government  continaes  te 
be  of  a  friendly  character. 

''Taking  a  general  survey,  whilst  I  have  difficulties,  I  have  also  encouragements,  and 
must,  on  the  whole,  report  that  the  present  state  ef  the  Mission  is  favonraUe,  and  msn 
satisfiictory  than  it  was  twelve  months  since.'' 

In  the  Society  and  Austral  Islands,  in  the  Hervet  Group,  and  in  Samoa,  in  which 
the  native  Christians  are  numbered  by  tens  of  thousands,  the  progress  of  our  Mtasiems 
notwithstanding  many  formidable  hindrances,  is  tradeniable ;  dvilization  and  i 
ness  are  widely  diffused ;  the  rising  generation  is  instructed  both  in  useful 
Christian  knowledge ;  the  press  is  vigorously  employed;  the  Scriptures  are  widely  cinallled 
and  dearly  prized.  The  several  institutions  for  training  a  Native  Miniatry  include  moce 
than  120  students,  who,  at  the  completion  of  their  course,  will  become  teediets  oC 
their  countrymen,  or  go  forth  to  dark  and  distant  islands  as  Evangelists  to  the 
Heathen. 

Savage  Island,  one  of  the  latest  scenes  of  the  transforming  efficacy  of  the  Gospd, 
when  accompanied  by  the  gracious  power  of  the  Holy  Spirit,  continues  abnndtntly  to  reward 
the  indefatigable  labours  of  our  Missionary,  the  Rav.  W.  G.  Lawbs. 

In  his  latest  report  he  thus  writes :—  Digitized  by  LjOOQ  IC 


FOR  JUNE)  1866.  155 

"We  btTe  still  everj  reason  for  eocouragemeiit,  and  much  cause  for  gratitude  to  God, 
who  has  blessed  this  corner  of  the  field  with  His  presence  and  grace.  The  slavers  who 
canaed  us  so  much  sorrow  last  year  have  not  since  troubled  us.  We  hope  a  stop  ia  now 
pat  to  this  diabolical  traflfic.  But  the  poor  widows  and  orphans !  they  still  mourn  for  their 
lost  ones.  A  ^p  off  the  island  is  the  signal  for  a  fresh  ontburtt  of  grief.  Many  of  the 
widows  are  in  the  Churchy  and  you  will  be  glad  to  know  that  they  have  all  remained 
steadfast. 

**  The  accompanying  statistics  will  show  you  the  state  of  our  Church.  The  small  number 
of  Church  members  upon  whom  we  have  been  i^liged  to  exercise  discipline  is  to  us  a  cause 
of  roueh  gratitude  to  Ood. 

<*  We  have  still  a  hirge  number  of  candidates.  From  the  1st  April,  1863,  to  the  same 
date  in  1864, 1  conversed  individually  with  764  candidates.  They  have  increased  greatly 
in  knowledge,  and  the  difficulty  of  selecting  those  fit  for  Church  fellowship  has  increased  in 
like  proportion. 

**  In  the  work  of  translation  I  have  been  enabled  to  make  some  progress.  The  MSS.  of 
the  previous  year  were  revised  by  the  Rev.  G.  Pratt,  and  returned  to  me  in  December 
last.  When  the  Epistles  now  ready  for  the  press  are  revised  and  printed  we  shall  have 
the  greater  portion  of  the  New  Testament  in  print.    '  Hitherto  hath  the  Lord  helped  us.' 

"  We  have  been  greatly  cheered  by  onr  Missionary  meetings  this  year.  I  feel  sure  the 
FMttU  will  be  equally  pleasiog  to  you. 

"  You  will  see  from  the  amount  of  contributions  that  they  were  prineipally  made  in 
cocoa-nut  fibre.  The  preparation  of  the  fi(re,  as  well  as  the  arrowroot,  involves  a  great 
amount  of  labour ;  but  the  people  had  '  a  willing  mind/  and  with  hearty  good-will  did  what 
they  could  to  help  on  the  work  of  God. 

**  We  had  two  meetings  at  different  parts  of  the  island  in  the  open  air.  As  it  regards 
numbers,  we  had  an  Exeter  Hall  audience.  Notwithstanding  the  oratorical  displays  of 
eloquence  en  that  platform,  I  think  that  many  of  that  assembly  would  as  soon  be  at  the 
Missionary  May  Meeting  of  Sa? age  Island.  I  cannot  give  you  particuUrs  of  our  meeting- 
no  reporter  was  present.  If  our  Christian  friends  in  England  wish  to  enhance  the  interest 
of  our  May  Meetings,  they  can  do  so  most  effectually  by  sending  another  Missionary  to 
tmke  part  in  them.  At  present  I  have  to  be  '  chief  speaker,'  as  well  as  chairman  and 
secretary. 

'*  I  need  not  lengthen  my  letter.  The  above  fhcts'cannot  fail  to  excite  feeFings  of  gratitude 
in  the  hearts  of  all  who  love  our  Lord  Jesus  Christ.  We  need  the  sympathies  and  prayers 
of  the  Churches  in  Britain,  for  our  work  is  very  great.  Above  all^  we  want  the  help  of  a 
second  Missionary."

The  ertid  and  lawless  proceedings  of  the  Peruvian  slavers,  which  were  reported  last 
year,  and  to  which  Mr.  Lawes  refers,  were  happily  and  shortly  terminated,  and  in  a 
great  degree  by  the  prompt  and  energetic  proceedings  of  the  French  authorities  at  Tahiti, 
who  seized  the  vessels,  liberated  the  captives,  and  sentenced  the  commanders,  after  convic- 
tion, to  a  prolonged  term  of  penal  servitude. 

But,  during  the  present  year,  we  have  had  to  complain  loudly  of  the  unprovoked  hostility 
of  a  French  officer  in  Eastern  Polynesia,  Mons.  Guillaik,  the  Governor  of  New  Caledonia, 
exercised  upon  onr  Mitsionary  brethren  and  their  Christian  converts  in  the  islands  of  the 
Loyalty  Group.  The  acts  of  despotism  and  cruelty  perpetrated  by  his  authority  are  now 
of  world-wide  notoriety  and  of  universal  reprobation.  The  English  Missionaries  and  their 
assistanti  had  settled  upon  those  islands  many  years  before  the  French  authority  was  known 


156  M188IONAKT  MAOAZUTE 

in  New  Caledonia,  and  to  their  labours  the  ciTilization,  tranquillity,  and  religion  of  the 
people  were  attributable. 

These  teachers  and  benefactors  were  silenced,  upon  pain  of  expulsion  from  the  islands ; 
their  Polynesian  colleagues  were  loaded  with  fetters,  and  carried  on  board  a  French  man-of- 
war  ;  all  public  acts  of  worship,  unless  conducted  by  Catholic  Missionaries,  were  prohibited, 
and  up  to  the  month  of  January  these  unrighteous  restrictions  were  in  full  force. 

On  receiving  the  intelligence  of  this  grievous  aggression,  the  Directors  of  the  Society 
lost  no  time  in  bringing  the  case  under  the  attention  of  Earl  Russell,  her  Majesty's 
Secretary  of  State  for  Foreign  Affairs,  and  they  were  happy  to  learn  that  his  Lordship  had 
already,  through  our  Ambassador  at  Paris,  represented  to  the  Government  of  France  this 
outrage  on  civil  and  religious  freedom  by  the  Governor  of  New  Caledonia ;  and,  in  reply, 
an  official  assurance  was  given  that  the  proceedings  of  Mons.  Guillain  had  already  been 
disapproved  and  disowned.  Independently,  however,  of  this  prompt  interference  by  our 
Government,  and  before  the  result  was  known,  a  number  of  noblemen  and  gentlemen,  of 
high  official  position,  together  with  representatives  of  our  principal  Missionary  Institntions, 
united  in  a  Memorial  to  his  Majesty  the  Emperor  of  the  French,  entreating  the  exercise  of 
his  authority  by  revoking  the  oppressiye  measures  of  his  representative  in  the  Lo3ralty 
Islands,  and  by  restoring  religious  liberty  to  the  English  Missionaries  and  the  Protestaat 
Native  Christians. 

To  this  Memorial  the  Emperor,  through  his  Ambassador,  returned  the  following  graooos 
and  satisfactory  answer :— * 

"  Aux  Tuileries,  le  24  Janvier,  1865. 
"  Messieurs, 
**  J'ai  re9u  les  r^lamations  que  vous  m'aves  addresses  relativement  aux  dispositioM 
r^cemment  prises  dans  les  lies  de  Loyalty  par  le  Gouvenieur  de  la  Nouvelle  CalMonie.    Je 
fais  ^ire  au  Commandant  Guillain  pour  bl&mer  toute  mesure  qui  mettrait  une  entrsTe  au

We  may  then  cherish  the  gratifying  assurance  that  Mons.  Guillain  has  ere  this  received 
this  well-merited  rebuke  of  his  Imperial  master,  and  that  our  Missionaries  and  the  Pro- 
testant Christians  of  those  islands  are  now  enjoying  the  restored  blessings  of  peace  and 
freedom. 

The  Memorialists,  through  Lord  Shaftesbury,  did  not  fail  suitably  to  acknowledge  the 
enlightened  and  generous  conduct  of  his  Majesty  Napoleon  III.  on  behalf  of  our  coontry- 
men  and  their  fellow-Protestants ;  and  it  becomes  us  thb  day,  while  we  share  the  same 
feelings,  to  recognise  His  hand  and  will  '*  by  whom  kings  reign  and  princes  decree  justice ;"

**  Gentlemen, 
**  I  have  received  the  Memorial  which  you  addressed  to  me  relative  to  the  meaawrss 
recently  taken  in  the  Loyalty  Islands  by  the  Governor  of  New  Caledonia.  I  am  writing 
to  Commandant  Guillain  to  censure  any  measure  which  would  impose  a  restraint  upon  the 
free  exercise  of  your  ministry  in  those  distant  lands.  I  feel  assured  that,  far  from  rainng 
any  difficulties  in  the  way  of  the  representatives  of  French  authority,  the  Protestant  Misdoa, 
as  well  as  the  Catholic,  will  seek  to  diffuse  among  the  natives  of  the  Archipelago  the  beswto 
of  Christianity  and  cirilizatioo. 

**  Receive,  Gentlemen,  the  assurance  of  my  distinguished  consideration,.

FOR  JUNE,  1865.  157 

and  to  present  to  Him  oor  hnmble  and  hearty  praisei  for  this  gracions  interposition  on 
behalf  of  His  persecuted  servants  and  their  oppressed  native  brethren. 

On  the  17th  of  May  last,  within  five  days  of  the  celebration  of  the  Society's  Anniversary, 
the  Missionary  Ship  ♦'  John  Williams '' was  wrecked  on  Danger  Island,  lat.  S.  10**  54", 
long.  W.  166®,  in  Western  Polynesia.  For  twenty  years  that  good  ship,  under  the  care 
and  skill  of  her  successive  commanders,  had  safely  navigated  those  dapgerous  seas,  carrying 
the  messengers  of  mercy  to  many  a  dark  island;  and,  wherever  borne  by  the  winds  and 
-waves  of  the  Pacific,  she  was  welcomed  by  myriads  as  the  harbinger  of  peace.  Among  the 
friends  of  the  Society  the  "John  Williams  "  was  a  household  word ;  and,  as  often  as  she  made 
her  visits  home,  the  children  of  our  houses  and  oar  Churches,  who  claimed  her  as  their 
own,  put  forth  renewed  enthusiasm  and  energy  to  repair  the  efiecta  of  hard  service  and 
make  her  young  again;  and,  amidst  their  hearty  cheers,  mingled  with  the  prayers  of 
thousands,  she  five  times  left  the  port  of  London  to  extend  the  kingdom  of  Christ  and 
diffuse  the  blessings  of  salvation  among  the  isles  of  the  Pacific. 

And,  in  proportion  to  the  love  entertained  for  this  old  and  familiar  friend,  was  the  grief 
intense  and  universal  when  we  received  the  tidings  of  her  loss.  Yet  our  grief  was  assuaged, 
and,  instead  of  complaint,  gratitude  ascended  to  God  that  of  the  passengers  and  the  crew  not 
one  had  perished,  and  that  the  natives  of  the  island  to  whom  the  **  John  Williams  **  on  a 
former  voyage  had  carried  Christian  Teachers  now  received  the  shipwrecked  voyagers  to 
their  homes  and  their  hearts.  How  wise,  how  merciful  had  been  God's  arrangements  on 
behalf  of  His  destitute  and  suffering  servants  1  But  for  the  previous  visit  of  the  **  John 
Williams,"  and  the  labours  of  the  Samoan  Evangelists,  whom  God  thus  sent  to  make  known 
to  the  benighted  islanders  the  way  of  life,  the  helpless  castaways  would  have  found  them- 
selves surrounded  by  cruel,  bloodthirsty  savages,  instead  of  Christian  brethren  and  generous 
friends. 

And,  as  the  shipwrecked  refugees  thought  of  the  warm  hearts  and  active  hands  of  the 
children  of  England,  the  hope  sprung  up  and  cheered  them  that,  in  God's  great  mercy,  they 
should  at  no  distant  day  again  see  that  island,  borne  thither  by  a  new  Missionary  ship  ; 
and,  to  ensure  this  object,  the  first  offering  towards  another  **  John  Williams  "  was  made 
by  the  children  of  Danger  Idand,  who  intrusted  it  to  Mrs.  Williams,  the  wife  of  our  good 
captain,  to  place  in  the  hands  of  the  Society's  Secretary  on  reaching  London. 

On  the  arrival  of  the  rescued  company  at  Samoa,  the  children  of  that  Group  also  were 
impelled  by  the  same  spirit.  **We  have  arranged,"  writes  Dr.  Turner,  "to  commence 
subscriptions  among  the  Samoan  children  for  the  new  ship.  It  will  spur  on  the  English 
children  amazingly  if  they  hear  that  the  children  in  the  islands  are  subscribing  on  the 
faith  that  the  children  in  England  will  arise  and  meet  the  emergency." 

At  Sydney,  and  in  the  other  Australian  colonies,  the  friends  of  Missions  universally,  and 
the  juvenile  classes  in  particular,  have  put  forth  generous  efforts  to  ensure  a  successor  to  the 
**  John  Williams."  '  But  throughout  Britain  the  children  of  our  families,  and,  most  of  all, 
the  children  of  our  Sunday  Schools,  have  been  animated  by  a  generous  enthusiasm  that  has 
exceeded  all  former  precedent.  The  aggregate  amount  of  juvenile  contributions  exceeds 
Nine  thousand  pounds. 

This  youthful  ardour  in  the  cause  of  Missions  could  scarcely  be  expended  on  an  enter- 
prise more  useful  or  important.  The  value  and  necessity  of  a  Missionary  ship,  for  extending 
the  blessings  of  the  Gospel  throughout  the  isles  of  the  Pacific,  havo  been  demonstrated  by 
the  history  of  more  than  twenty  years ;  and  the  Directors  of  the  Society,  while  deeply 
sensible  of  the  wisdom  and  kindness  of  those  ministers,  with  the  superintendents  and 
teachers  of  schools,  by  whom  this  juvenile  effort  has  been  encouraged  and  directed,  are 
thankful  to  God  that  ihousands  of  children  have  been  associated  in  a  service  which,  under 
His  blessing,  may  in  years  to  come  affect  their  own  hearts  with  gratitude  for  the  Gospel  and 
with  zeal  and  compassion  for  the  Heathen.

On  the  Directors  devoWed  the  gratifying  senrice  of  procuring  a  soitable  Teasel,  of  tbe  best 
construction,  materials,  and  workmanship,  as  snccessor  to  the  "John  Williaiiis.''  IHth 
this  view  thej  gladly  availed  themseWes  of  the  judgment  and  advice  of  gentlemen  of  large 
experience  and  practical  wisdom  in  ship-building ;  and,  after  extended  inquiries  and  pro- 
longed consideration,  thej  entered  into  contract  with  Messrs.  Hall,  of  Aberdeen,  lor  a  new 
Tessel  of  S50  tons,  provided  with  assple  accommodation  for  Missionary  passengers  and  the 
conveyance  of  the  necessary  supplies  and  stores. 

The  time  required  for  her  construction  extends  to  the  close  of  October  next;  and,  within 
three  or  four  months  fW>m  that  time,  the  Directors  hope  and  expect  that  the  new  ahip, 
thoroughly  equipped  and  prepared  fbr  the  voyage,  and  having  on  board  a  goodly  reinforoe- 
ment  of  Missionary  labourers,  will  sail  from  the  Thames  for  the  isles  of  the  Pacific 

And,  as  her  anchor  rises  and  her  sails  are  spread,  thanksgivings  will  ascend  to  God  from 
the  hearts  of  thousands  for  this  new  messenger  of  peace  to  the  heathen,  accompanied  by 
earnest  prayers  for  her  safety,  and  for  the  success  of  her  great  and  hallowed  enterprise. 

THE  WEST  INDIES. 

The  Missions  of  the  Sooiety  in  BnmsH  Guiana  and  Jamaica,  to  which  iti  operatiosH 
have  been  restrictedi  have  suffered  throughout  the  year  great  disadvantages  both  tnm 
drought  and  oomaiercial  depression ;  the  latter  being  aggravated  in  a  great  degree  by  the 
civil  war  in  America.  The  system  of  colonial  policy  also,  and  the  heavy  pressore  of  t 
tion,  which  bears  with  unequal  force  upon  the  coloured  population,  of  which  the 
Churches  are  chiefly  composed,  hinders,  although  it  cannot  stop,  their  progreas  toward 
entire  self-support.  Notwithstanding  the  impediments  they  suffer,  the  aggregile  of  the 
free-will  offerings  of  our  West  Indian  Churches,  compared  with  the  amount  of  aaatstaaee 
required  from  the  fands  of  the  Soeiaty,  is  honourable  to  their  zeal  and  liberality,  and  highly 
^noonraging  in  its  aspect  on  theur  future  independeneeu

Our  West  Indian  Churches  generally  have,  by  the  Divine  blessing  on  the  labours  of  our 
brethren,  advanced  in  numbers  and  in  Christian  character.  Their  faith  and  piety  ought 
not  indeed  to  be  estimated  by  comparison  with  that  of  British  Christians.  We  are  happily 
exempted  from  fearful  social  evils  to  which  our  colonial  fellow-Christians  are  exposed,  while 
we  enjoy  untold  advantages  to  which  they  are  strangers.  But,  when  we  consider  the  deadly 
iniuence  of  paganism,  snd  the  social  curse  of  slavery,  of  which  they  have  been  victims,  and 
when  we  remember  that  their  redemption  from  these  gigantic  evils  has  been  the  work  of  a 
aingle  generation,  instead  of  indulging  feelings  of  dbappointroent,  and  uttering  hard  censme 
on  their  ignorance,  instability,  and  other  nameless  imperfections,  we  ought  rather,  with 
wonder  and  thankfulness,  to  glorify  God,  by  whose  grace  they  have  been  delivered  frwi 
the  power  of  darkness  and  translated  into  the  kingdom  of  His  dear  Son. 

From  letters  written  within  this  last  month  we  are  rejoiced  to  learn  that  the  parched  soft 
of  Jamaica  has  been  blest  with  fhiitftil  showers.  The  Rbt.  Alprid  JoTcn>  under  dUs 
April  6th,  conveys  the  good  news  as  follows :— 


FOR  JTNS,  1864r  159 

'*  Ton  wni  be  pleased  to  hear  that  *  He  ^Im  preptreth  rain  for  the  earth '  has  been 
grmnting  as  daring  the  past  week  refreshing  showers  upon  these  parched  mountains,  making 
the  hearts  of  all  rejoice.  We  have  had  no  rain  for  six  or  seTcn  months;  and  you  can  easily 
imagine  the  state  of  the  profiskm-gronads  in  this  hot  country.  Some  of  our  people  are 
beginning  to  leel  the  times  to  be  Tcry  hard,  and  but  very  few  have  provisioDS  to  sell,  though 
I  think  they  hate  enough  in  their  grounds  for  family  use.  I  have  made  many  inquiriea 
about  the  atate  of  the  people,  to  ascertain  if  any  families  are  actually  in  want  of  food ;  but 
I  have  not  heard  of  one  case.  The  people  are  short  of  money,  but  a  few  only  short  of  food; 
Md  if  we  new  have  seasonable  rains,  tiiere  will  not  be  much  cause  for  complaining  amongst 
xm.  There  ie  a  scarcity  of  money,  and  of  course  this  must  make  a  great  difference  in 
tlM  contributioas  of  the  people  to  the  cause  of  God ;  yet  we  do  not  want  money  for 
•harilaMe  distribution,  aad  to  send  clothes  to  give  to  the  people  v?iU  increaae  laziness,  and 
be  an  evil  rather  than  a  good." 

SOUTH  AFRICA. 

The  Christian  labours  of  the  Society  in  South  Afnea  quickly  followed  those  in  Polynesia ; 
and  in  no  other  Mission  field  is  the  contrast  more  striking  and  happy  than  in  the  social  and 
religious  oondition  both  of  the  colonists  and  the  aborigines,  when  Dr.  VANDBRKaMP  and 
his  associates  entered  upon  their  work,  and  in  tiiat  which  it  preaents  this  day.  Then  the 
character  and  habits  of  the  Europeans  exhibited  a  mournful  combination  of  ignorance  and 
vice,  selfishness  and  cruelty — the  natural  and  inseparable  results  of  slavery  to  the  oppressor; 
while  the  Hottentots,  and  other  native  tribes,  groaning  beneath  the  galling  yoke,  were  ruled 
with  brutal  violence,  and  left  to  live  and  die  in  ignorance  and  vice. 

To  our  Morarian  brethren  was  the  honour  assigned  by  the  Divine  Head  of  the  Church  of 
first  making  knovrn  to  the  benighted  aborigines  the  grace  and  glory  of  His  kingdom ;  but 
their  work  of  mercy  had  been  but  recently  commenced  when  Missionaries  from  Britain 
followed  to  extend  the  sacred  enterprise.  But  these  messengers  of  mercy,  instead  of  being 
welcomed  by  the  colonists,  were  regarded  either  with  suspicion  or  contempt,  and  every^ 
hindrance  was  devised  to  prevent  their  access  to  the  slaves  of  the  white  man.  For  many 
years  our  Missionaries  suffered  more  opposition  and  wrong  from  their  countrymen  than  tiom 
the  Heathen ;  and,  under  God,  it  was  owing  chiefly  to  the  heroic  firmness  and  prayerful 
perseverance  of  these  despised  and  hated  servants  of  the  Lord  Jesus  that  the  slave-masters 
of  South  Africa  lost  the  power  to  oppress,  and  the  sons  of  the  soil  were  raised  to  the  dignity 
and  happiness  of  freed  men. 

From  the  year  of  Jubilee,  1838,  the  Word  of  the  Lord  has  had  free  course  and  been 
glorified.  By  the  downfall  of  slavery  the  colonists  themselves  have  lost  little  and  gained 
much ;  and,  although  they  have  not  yet  outlived  thehr  pr^udice  against  the  coloured  natives, 
they  exhibit  many  honourable  examples  both  of  Christian  integrity  and  benevolence,  and 
often  afford  generous  aid  to  the  Missionary  in  his  self-denying  labours  to  instnict  and 
elevate  their  former  bondmen. 

The  Mission  Churches,  chiefly  within  the  boundaries  of  the  Cape  Colony,  originating  in 
the  labours  of  the  Society,  amount  to  Twbntt-four.  They  are  composed,  with  the  excep- 
tion of  a  few  indiriduals,  of  Hottbntots,  Kappirs,  and  other  native  tribes.  Of  these 
Churches  haff  the  number  are  self-sustained,  while  the  other  half  contribute  on  an  average 
two-thirds  of  their  expetiditure«  The  supplemental  and  occasional  grants  required  from  the 
Innds  of  the  Society  have  therefore,  for  several  years,  been  in  the  same  proportiov 
diminished;  and,  although  the  hope  may  be  entertained  that,  with  the  blessing  of  CMy 
these  feeble  communities  will  at  no  distant  day  attain  the  power  of  self-sustentation  and 
honourable  independence,  the  Directors  in  the  meantime  regard  it  as  a  sacred  obligation, 
which  they  cheerfully  meet,  to  render  to  their  brethren  sudi  measure  of  peconiary  assistance 
as  the  limited  resources  of  the  people  and  the  untoward  ^^<^^|g^e^^^j^^^^n^  m^J 
render  necessary.  ^ 

Ba^  of  these  Colonial  Churches  is  the  centre  of  a  widely  extended  Christian  influence,

incloding  many  Out-stations,  at  \rbicli  Schools  are  sustained  by  Native  agents*  under  the 
saperintendence  of  the  Missionary,  by  whom  they  are  visited  at  frequent  and  stated  seasons. 
The  general  aspect  of  the  principal  Stations,  both  socially  and  morally,  is  tmly  cheering; 
and,  as  an  illustration,  the  Directors  give  the  following  representation  of  Hankbt,  from  a 
letter  of  the  Rev.  John  McLkod,  who  arrived  there  in  February  last  :— 

'*  Our  impressions  at  the  sight  of  Hankey  far  exceeded  our  expectations,  though,  from  ikm 
report  we  had  had  of  it,  these  ran  very  high.  We  beheld  a  gem  of  a  valley,  surrounded  by 
hills  on  every  side,  and  watered  by  a  never-faUuig  river.  Behind  the  hills,  on  one  side,  i* 
a  majestic  mountain,  with  its  grand  and  lofty  peaks,  and  all  around  there  is  scenery  the  i 
varied  and  beautifully  wild.  If  its  beauties  were  known,  travellers  who  e^joy  such  so 
would  certainly  often  be  found  here.  A  great  part  of  the  valley  is  in  a  high  state  of  cultiva- 
tion, which  adds  greatly  to  the  natural  beauty  of  the  place.  So  much  for  my  first  imprea- 
sion  as  regards  external  appearances. 

**  Next  day,  being  the  Sabbath,  we  had  an  opportonity  of  meeting  many  of  the  peoi^ 
(500  at  least  were  present  at  the  morning  service)  in  the  house  of  prayer.  And,  if  admira- 
tion filled  our  minds  as  we  viewed  the  beauties  of  nature  around,  as  well  as  the  fruits  of  long 
years  of  htrd  labour  and  of  patience  in  the  valley  below,  gladness  filled  our  hearta  at  what 
grace  had  accomplished  in  that  worshipping  assembly. 

'*  I  was  surprised  and  delighted  at  the  decent  and  very  cleanly  appearance  of  the  people, 
both  men  and  women ;  and  then  their  decorum,  attention,  and  general  demeanour  would 
contrast  favourably  with  any  English  congregation.  They  sang  most  sweetly,  which  was  all 
they  had  to  do  actively  in  the  service,  which  was  conducted  in  Dutch.  The  Church 
members  present  at  the  Communion  last  Sabbath  were  about  150,  and  all  appeared  attentive 
and  devout.  Altogether,  these  services  have  greatly  cheered  me,  and  i  may  well  say, 
'  What  hath  God  wrought  I' 

**  Such  are  my  first  impressions  of  the  spiritual  work  done  here.'' 

The  Missions  among  the  Bkchuanas,  GaiauAB,  Fingobs,  and  other  native  tribea  north 
of  the  Orange  River  are  not  less  numerous,  as  it  regards  the  congregations  and  Chnrdi 
members,  than  those  of  the  colony ;  but,  from  their  great  distance  from  the  acenes  of 
civilization  and  trade,  their  resources  are  more  limited,  and  they  require  a  larger  amount  of 
assistance  from  the  funds  of  the  Society.  Lbkatlong,  formerly  occupied  by  the  ^mffnt^ 
Hollow  AY  HBLMoaE,  is  now  under  the  care  of  the  Rby.  Wm.  Ashton,  who  baa  also  the 
direction  of  the  Mission  press. 

The  Rky.  Isaac  Hughbs,  whose  term  of  Missionary  service  exceeds  forty  years,  continues 
to  superintend  the  Griqua  Mission  at  Backhodsb,  and  early  in  the  present  year  he  was 
joined  by  the  Rey.  Jambs  Good,  sent  out  by  the  Directors  as  his  fellow-labourer. 

Our  veteran  friend  the  Rby.  Robbrt  Moffat  has  completed  his  seventieth  year ;  of 
these  nearly  fifty  have  been  spent  in  the  service  of  his  Divine  Master  in  South  Africa ;  but 
he  still  prosecutes  his  varied  labours  at  the  Kuruman  with  unabated  diligence  and  efllcieocy. 
In  a  letter  written  at  the  close  of  last  year  Mr.  MofiTat  gives  a  brief  report  of  the  Mission 
as  follows:  — 

*<  It  is  with  unfeigned  gratitude  to  the  God  of  all  grace  that  there  is  no  reason  to  complain 
of  retrogression  or  sta^cnation  in  the  condition  of  the  Church  here,  or  in  any  of  our  branch 
Churches.  On  the  contrary,  the  increasing  attendance  on  the  means  of  grace  is  most 
satisfactory.  A  manifest  blessing  has  accompanied  the  reading  of  the  Scripture,  as  well  as  the 
proclamation  of  the  love  and  mercy  of  God  through  the  crucified  Redeempr,  in  the  additioBS 
made  to  the  number  of  believers.  At  our  nearest  Out-station,  among  the  Batlaros,  eleven 
have  been  received  into  Church  fellowship,  and  seven  at  this  Station,  besides  several 
readmitted  at  both  places  whose  conduct  during  the  preceding  year  led  to  thdr  suspension. 
Oar  joys  in  this  country  on  the  reception  of  members,  especially  the  young,  are  often  of  a 
chastened  character,  fearing  that  they  may  err,  especially  on  the  important  natter  of 
marriage.  However,  we  have  great  reason  to  rejoice  and  be  thankful  for  what  has  bees 
Mcomplished,  and  for  the  general  orderly  deportment  of  those  who  have  embraced  the 
Gospel.    They  have  sad  examples  before  them  in  the  scandalous  conductof  Europeans  or

white  men,  which  exert  a  btnefal  influence  on  the  native  mind.  Traders  and  hunters 
tntTerse  the  country  in  quest  of  ivory,  ostrich  feathers,  &c.,  and  many  have  proved  them- 
•ehres  to  be  despicable  and  reckless  characters,  devoid  of  all  shame.  We  are  often  made  to 
blnsh  with  the  filthy  and  dishonest  deeds  of  our  countrymen. 

"  Application  for  copies  of  the  Scriptures  in  Sechuana  are  made  by  the  Hanoverian 
Missionaries  in  the  Bepnblie,  and  even  as  far  as  Pietermaritzberg  (Natal),  and  the  extended 
means  of  education  now  at  work  will  ere  long  result  in  still  larger  demands  for  the  precious 
volume. 

*'  The  Schools,  which  continue  to  occupy  the  whole  of  the  time  and  attention  of  my 
daughter,  give  all  the  satisfaction  one  can  possibly  expect,  especially  as  many  of  the 
children  are  inflaenoed  by  parents  who  are  in  no  wise  alive  to  the  importance  of 
education.  There  are  frequent  applications  made  for  speUing-books  by  youths  who  live  at

'*  The  season,  on  the  whole,  up  to  the  present  time,  has  been  favourable  for  native  gardens. 
Lately  much  rain  has  fiUen,  and  of  course  grass  is  abundant;  but  cattle  continue  to  be 
scarce,  from  the  lung  sickness,  which  now  and  then  carries  off  numbers.

"  These  sums  do  not  include  the  Long  Bfountain  and  other  Out-stations,  from  which 
nothing  has  yet  been  received.  I  hope,  however,  on  my  return  to  be  able  to  report 
lisvourably. 

"  In  last  year's  Report  it  was  stated  that  I  had  nearly  finished  the  revision  of  the  New 
Testament.  I  have,  during  the  intervals  of  time  spared  from  other  duties,  re-examined 
every  sentence,  I  might  say  every  word,  with  much  care  and  no  little  anxiety,  and  again 
transferred  all  the  corrections  to  another  copy,  for  the  greater  convenience  of  the  coroposicor. 
The  only  compositor  we  have  is  an  individual  I  placed  in  the  printing-office  after  my  return 
from  England,  and  he  has  continued  ever  since.  He  is  very  slow,  but  steady  and  punctual-- 
indeed,  too  much  so,  requiring  copy  to  be  made  as  plain  as  a  pike-staff.  Although  this 
sometimes  gives  more  work  in  correcting  than  is  desirable,  his  goodness  and  perseverance 
make  amends." 

One  of  our  Missionary  students,  whose  academical  course  will  close  with  the  present 
aession,  has  been  appointed  to  the  Buchuana  Mission ;  and,  in  the  anticipation  of  his 
arrival,  Mr.  Moffat  says,  "  We  shall  welcome  him  with  our  hands  and  hearts." 

The  Rkv.  Roobr  Pricb  and  the  Rav.  John  Mackbkzie  have  an  extended  and  pro- 
mising field  of  labour  among  the  tribe  of  the  Bamangw^o. 

This  Mission  is  situated  in  the  direct  course  from  Kumman  to  the  country  of  the 
Matebele  ;  and,  besides  affording  access  to  a  numerous  native  population,  it  will  prove  of 
great  value  in  facilitating  intercourse,  now  rare  and  uncertain,  between  the  South  and  the 
North. 

No  recent  intelligence  has  been  received  from  our  Missionaries,  now  in  the  sixth  year  of 
their  labours,  among  the  subjects  of  Mo8blbkat8B  ;  but  Mbssrs.  Sykbs,  Thomas,  |nd 
JoHK  Moffat,  though  impeded  by  many  difficulties,  continue  their  work  of  faith  and 
labour  of  love  with  unshaken  constancy  and  unwearied  patience.  They  have  acquired  the 
knowledge  of  the  Setabele — the  language  of  the  country— and  made  known  to  the  people 
in  their  own  tongue  the  truth  and  grace  of  the  Gospel.  They  have  also  tranblated  portions 
of  the  New  Testament  into  the  vernacular ;  and,  though  their  labours  are  at  present 
restricted,  yet  they  anticipate  with  full  assurance  the  day  when  they  shall  have  liberty  to 
teach  and  preach  the  Gospel,  and  when  the  people  will  have  Itbert^^hijajr&fli^d  embrace 
its  gracious  truths.  ^

CHINA. 

The  Chinese  Missions  of  the  Society  presented  at  the  dose  of  last  year  an  aspect  man 
interesting  and  imposing  than  at  any  former  period  of  their  history.  The  termination  of 
the  war  between  the  Imperialists  and  the  Tai-ping  insurgents,  by  the  capture  of  Nanking, 
brought  about  the  return  to  their  homes  of  thousands  of  impoverished  wanderers,  relieved 
the  distracted  people  from  anxiety  and  alarm,  and  encouraged  them  to  resume  their  ordinary 
habits  of  industry  and  peace.  These  happy  results  from  the  cessation  of  the  war  could  not 
ftil  to  work  favourably  on  the  interests  of  Missions  both  in  the  South  and  in  the  North  ; 
and  our  brethren  gladly  bear  their  testimony  to  this  effect. 

In  connection  with  our  central  Stations,  induding  Hono  Kono,Ga24Ton,  AMOT,8Hajfo» 
HAS,  Hankow,  TrsN-TsiN,  and  Pbking,  whik  onr  Miasionariea  review  tiie  results  ol  peal 
labour  with  thankfulness,  from  zeal  and  peraeveranee  they  antidpate  brighter  and  wider 
triumphs  in  the  service  of  their  Lord.  In  each  of  the  several  Stations  (even  in  those  into 
which  the  Gospel  was  introduced  not  more  than  three  or  four  years  since),  Christiaa 
Churches  have  been  already  formed;  and  in  these  seven  Churches  there  is  an  aggr^ate  ol 
more  than  «t^  hundrtd  and  Jiffy  intelligent  and  practical  Chinese  Chriatians. 

Omr  Miaaionaries  are  greatly  assisted  by  a  numerous  band  of  Native  agents,  who  prenA 
the  Gospd  to  their  countrymen  not  enly  with  earnestness,  but  with  intdfigence ;  and 
although,  by  the  Confbdan  phttoaopher  and  moralkt,  the  doekine  of  Christ  and  Him 
crudfied  is  heM  in  derision,  the  common  people  hear  it  gladly,  and  many  flee  to  tbe  Cnma 
aa  thdr  refuge.

The  persecution  of  the  Native  Christians,  and  the  martyrdom  of  the  venersble  Cbva  at

MO  dollars  each,  and  ready  for  nse  in  the  spring  of  the  year ;  and  the  Christians  hate

three  of  the  brethren,  who  preside  at  their  meetings,  and  itinerate  from  village  to  village 
daring  the  week." 

The  Report  of  Canton  is  more  enconraging  than  any  received  from  that  Station  for 
several  years  past.  The  Riv.  Jobk  Chalmsrs  writes  respecting  the  Churoh  and 
•congregation  as  follows  :— 

"  We  have  forty-three  accredited  members  in  the  Chorcb,  and  three  more  are  to  be 
baptised  to-monrow.  Twenty  have  been  admitted  within  the  last  twelve  months.  This  is 
a  measure  of  soccess  far  exceeding  that  of  any  former  year.  In  fact,  our  number,  if  we 
include  the  three  that  are  waiting  for  baptism,  has  been  doubled  since  April,  1864. 

^  With  regard  to  the  character  of  the  members,  I  think  there  is  also  a  decided  improve- 
snent.  With  some  the  keeping  of  the  Sabbath  becomes  a  question  of  no  small  difBcnlty. 
Men  in  the  employment  of  heMhen,  who,  when  work  is  in  hand,  insist  on  having  it  done, 
luwe  in  one  or  two  eases  submitted  as  a  matter  of  necessity.  There  is  one  man  in  a  dyer's 
shop  In  this  neighbonrhood  who  is  in  his  seat  in  chapel  every  evening  throughont  the  week, 
but  who  is  sometimes  detained  on  Sunday  forenoon  to  do  his  master's  work.  If  he  gives 
«p  his  employment,  he  mnsC  go  home  to  his  native  village,  and  be  deprived  of  all  the 
Mdal  and  pnblie  privileges  of  a  Christbm.  It  seems  better  in  such  a  case  that  he  should 
remain. 

"  The  Kum-4e'fau  Chapel  has  been  for  the  most  part  open  every  evening  for  preaching, 
and  also  on  Sunday  forenoon.  Leunjy  Ai*o  is  a  valuable  man  to  our  Mission  :  he  divides 
the  work  with  me.  The  attendance  at  this  ohapel  varies  from  100  to  200  every  week-day 
evening,  and  on  Sundays  it  is  generally  crowded. 

*'  TYii'fMat'po  Chapel  I  have  occasionally  visited,  and  Leung  Tang  Shin  resides  there. 
It  is  open  every  forenoon,  except  on  Saturdays ;  and  the  attendance  is  full,  and  genendly 
of  a  better  class  of  peopie  than  at  KmUe-fim.**

"  The  past  year,"  observes  the  Rby.  Wm.  MuiRRSAn,  "  has  witnessed  considerable 
progress  in  oonnection  with  the  Mission,  both  in  extension  and  success.  The  ordinary 
work  has  been  carried  on  uneeasingly ;  and  new  Stations  have  been  opened,  and  the 
Gospel  has  been  preached,  in  the  outlying  towns  and  villages. 

"  The  Native  brethren  have  been  employed  in  their  different  fields  of  labour,  sowing  the 
seeds  of  Divine  truth,  and  in  various  places  we  have  been  encouraged  by  the  results.  It  Is 
their  part  to  go  hither  and  thither,  commending  the  message  of  reconciliation  to  all,  and  in 
some  instances  to  undertake  the  fostering  care  of  Native  Churches. 

«  We  thus  aim  to  extend  the  Gospel  as  widely  as  possible  by  a  system  of  itinerancy,  and 
to  establish  deflnito  positions,  where  the  ncrwly  made  converts  may  more  fully  learn  the 
truth.  Some  of  these  Native  brethren  have  been  ordained  to  the  ministry,  and  others  are 
appdnted  as  Bvang^ts.  It  is  only  In  this  manner  that  tiie  Gospel  can  be  expected  to 
have  currency,  and  make  progress  in  the  eoantry  on  a  scale  adequate  to  the  demand.

"  My  own  work  doling  the  past  yetr  has  been  to  sapeiintend  the  NttiTe  brethren,  viaft 
them  at  their  several  stations,  consult  with  them  as  to  the  conduct  of  the  Native  Christiana, 
meet  with  them  for  Bible  instruction,  and  direct  the  onward  progress  of  the  Gospd. 
Besides,  I  have  had  the  special  charge  of  the  principal  chapel  in  the  oitj,  where  preaching 
has  been  daily  kept  up,  and  always,  particularly  on  Sunday,  a  good  congregation  has  beem 
gathered  together.  As  in  former  years,  admirable  opportunities  have  been  furnished  fior 
the '  work  of  the  ministry '  in  our  city  congregations,  and  thousands  hsTC  from  time  to 
time  listened  to  the  Word  of  Life.

the  whole.   ^

'*  As  to  the  character  of  the  converts^  in  regard  to  some  I  have  much  joy,  from  thdr 
intelligence  and  interest  in  Divine  things.  They  manifest  considerable  zeal  and  activity  in 
urging  the  acceptance  of  the  Gospel  on  their  countrymen,  and  are  advancing  in  knowledge 
and  in  piety.  With  respect  to  others  we  have  met  with  discouragement  and  triaU  though 
of  no  very  grievous  kind,  and  which  would  be  greatly  abateid  by  a  more  constant, 
vigorous,  and  ioviiig  oversight  of  the  Churches  by  all  concerned. 

"  Some  of  the  newly  received  converts  are  good  classical  scholars,  though  they  have  been 
somewhat  reduced  in  circumstances,  from  the  pressure  of  the  rebellion.  These  in  time  may 
do  service  for  Christ  when  the  field  is  open  for  further  occupation." 


The  Mission  in  this  immense  city  was  commenced  in  1861,  and,  since  the  lamented  death 
of  the  Rev.  Robert  Wilson,  the  Rby.  Griffith  John  has  been  the  only  European 
Missionary  sustained  by  the  Society.    He  thus  reviews  the  year  1864  : — 

'*  Christ's  kingdom  is  extending  in  this  part  of  China ;  and  though  the  events  connected 
with  its  extension  are  not  so  exciting  as  some  might  wish,  yet  there  is  evident  progress. 
That  the  pure,  self-sacrificing  religion  of  the  Cross  should  make  any  progress  among  a 
people  so  gross  and  selfish  as  the  Chinese  are  is  a  proof  of  the  Divinity  of  its  origin  and  of 
the  supernatural  agency  by  which  it  is  applied. 

"  Throughout  the  year  our  daily  services  have  been  well  attended,  and  the  chapel  has 
been  filled  with  respectful  and  attentive  audiences. 

"The  Church  in  Hankow  is  growing  stronger  both  in  character  and  numbers.  The 
piety  of  most  of  the  members  is  apparently  deepening,  and  their  religious  experience 
ripening.  Many  are  growing  in  grace  and  in  the  knowledge  of  Christ.  Last  Sunday  one 
of  the  members  made  the  following  remark  concerning  himself : — '  I  think,  teacher,  that  a 
great  change  has  taken  place  in  me.  In  former  times  nothing  delighted  me  so  much  as  te 
hear  the  Ten  Commandments  expounded,  and  I  cared  comparatively  little  fbr  aught  else. 
But  now  I  delight  to  hear  the  words  of  Christ  recorded  by  the  Evangelists  explained,  and 
the  doctrine  of  the  Cross  preached.  I  have  learned  long  since  that  the  law  brings  life  to  no 
one  ;  and  now  Jesus  and  the  Cross  are  the  supreme  objects  of  my  affections.' 

**  During  the  year  eleven  have  been  added  to  our  number.  Most  of  them  are  shop-keepers 
and  tradesmen.  One  is  a  Ku-Jen,  or,  as  it  is  generally  translated.  Master  of  Arts.  He  is  a 
man  of  more  than  sixty,  has  attended  four  examinations  in  Peking,  and  is  highly  esteemed 
as  an  accomplished  scholar.  His  moral  character  has  always  stood  high,  according  to  the 
native  standard  of  morality.  He  has  been  oonvinced  of  the  truth  of  Christianity  for  two  or 
three  years  past ;  but  he  could  not  command  sufficient  courage  to  make  an  open  profession 
of  it  till  the  middle  of  last  year.  So  far  he  has  given  me  every  saUafaction,  and  I  an 
earnestly  hoping  that  his  example  will  have  a  salutary  influence  upon  many  of  the  lUeraii 
of  the  place. 

**  Some  of  the  converts  have  left  Hankow  for  their  distant  homes.  One  is  gone  to  the 
province  of  Ho-Nan,  another  to  the  province  of  Shantunpt  and  others  are  gone  to  other 
parts  of  the  country.  May  they  have  strength  to  cleave  to  the  Lord  Jesus  in  spite  of  all 
obstacles,  and  may  they  be  enabled  to  shine  as  bright  and  burning  lights  in  the  midat  of  the 
universal  darkness  by  which  they  are  surrounded.  Digitized  by  LjOOQIC 


FOR  JITNE,    I860.  165 

'*  The  present  namber  of  Charch  membert  is  thirty-six. 

*'  I  attach  great  importaDce  to  schools,  and  wish  I  had  dme  to  work  them  more  efficiently. 
To  make  them  thoroughly  effectiye  much  time  and  attention  must  be  devoted  to  them. 
On  the  whole,  I  consider  last  year's  experiment  a  success.  All  of  the  sixty  or  seventy  boys 
became  acquainted  with  the  truths  of  Christianity.  Many  of  them  made  great  progress, 
having  committed  the  whole  of  our  Catechism  and  portions  of  the  New  Testament  to 
memory,  and  being  able  to  repeat  them  without  missing  a  character ;  and  some  of  them 
seemed  tu  feel  an  interest  in  what  they  were  learning.  What  they  learned  in  the  schools  they 
carried  with  them  to  their  homes,  and  made  it  known  to  their  parents,  their  brothers  and 
sisters.  Their  playfellows,  also,  who  did  not  attend  the  school,  learned  something  from 
them.  Once  and  again  have  I  been  amused  and  pleased  to  hear  other  boys  catechizing  each 
other  in  the  language  of  onr  Catechism. 

*'  All  expenses  connected  with  the  boilding  and  the  carrying  on  of  the  schools  have  been 
defrayed  by  members  of  the  foreign  community. 

"Let  me,  at  the  commencement  of  the  year  1865,  beg,  in  behalf  of  the  Hamkow 
Mission,  an  interest  in  your  prayers,  and  in  those  of  the  Churches.  Pray  for  this  infant 
Church  ;  pray  for  this  vast  heathen  population  pray  for  me  and  the  Native  Evangelists. 
*  Brethren,  pray  for  us,  that  the  Word  of  the  Lord  may  have  free  course  and  be  glorified, 
even  as  it  is  with  you.' " 

TIICN-TSIN. 

Our  Missionaries,  the  Rev.  Jonathan  Lbes  and  Riv.  James  Williamson,  report  the 
state  of  the  Mission  in  that  city  as  follows. 

"  Our  work,  which  was  commenced  in  1861,  hns  gone  steadily  forward,  and  with  many 
indications  of  the  Divine  favour  and  blessing.  True,  we  are  not  permitted  as  yet  to  tell  of 
numbers  brought  to  repentance  and  true  faith ;  and  it  may  be  that  our  own  faiih  needs 
large  increase  before  God  shall  grant  such  blessings  as  these.  But  there  is  undoubtedly  a 
great  work  in  progress,  which  we  or  others  shaJl  one  day  realize.  In  due  season  the 
reaping-time  must  come. 

*'  On  the  last  Sunday  of  October  a  young  man  was  baptised  respecting  whom  we 
cherish  many  hopes.  His  name  is  SAau.  By  trade  he  is  a  maker  of  fancy  lanterns, 
working  with  his  father.  He  is  very  poor,  and  has  enjoyed  few  opportunities  of  gaining 
knowledge,  either  human  or  Divine  ;  but  he  is  naturally  diligent  and  warm-hearted,  and  has, 
besides,  good  mental  powers,  which  the  Gospel  (as  is  so  often  the  case)  has  quickened  into 
action.  It  is  now  perhaps  eighteen  months  since  he  first  appeared  as  a  candidate.  His 
evident  sincerity  and  satisfactory  acquaintance  with  the  truth  would  have  led  to  his  recep- 
tion long  ago,  had  not  he  felt  great  difficolty  as  to  keeping  the  Sabbath— a  point  which  is 
always  testing  for  new  converts.  At  length,  however,  his  decision  was  made,  and  the 
Church  joyfully  welcomed  him.  A  large  congregation  witnessed  the  baptism.  His  answers 
were  very  clear ;  and  especially  pleasing  was  his  avowal  of  weakness,  and  simple  reliance 
upon  the  Spirit's  help.  When,  at  last,  his  long-cheri shed  with  had  been  gratified,  and,  with 
prayer  to  Father,  Son,  and  Holy  Spirit,  he  found  himself  avowedly  a  follower  of  Jesus,  the 
poor  lad  burst  into  a  flood  of  tears,  which  he  hardly  attempted  to  repress  during  the  prayer 
which  followed.  Let  us  ask  your  prayers  on  his  behalf.  He  has  had  to  pass  through  much 
persecution  at  home.  All  sorts  of  schemes  have  been  tried  to  shake  his  consistency,  but 
thus  far,  I  believe,  without  success.  I  rarely  meet  him  without  hearing  some  new  tale  of 
home  trial.  He  finds  it  hard  to  be  at  once  an  obedient  son  and  a  faithful  Christian.  His 
Bible  has  been  more  than  once  taken  from  him  and  destroyed.  On  Sabbath  his  clothes 
are  often  hid  to  prevent  his  coming  to  the  chapel.  He  has  been  freqeently  beaten  for 
his  unwillingness  to  break  the  Sabbath,  although  during  the  previous  week  he  had  by  over- 
work amply  earned  his  rest.  We  have  thought  of  taking  him  on  as  a  student,  and  may  yet 
do  so  ;  but  this  has  met  with  determined  opposition  from  his  family  ;  and,  much  as  he  wishes 
to  give  himself  wholly  to  God's  work,  we  must  wait  till  God  shall  open  his  way."

the  year  to  describe  the  position  to  whkh,  by  the  Difine  goodness,  we  hart  now 
attained. 

"  The  first  three  conyerts,  baptized  in  Janntry  1863,  were  all  patients  in  the  hotpitaL 
Two  are  now  employed  as  Bible  Colportettrs.  The  third  resides  in  a  neighboaring  town; 
and  we  haye  it  in  contemplation  to  accede  to  bis  proposal  to  establish  a  subordinate 
Mission  there,  in  the  charge  of  a  Nati?e  Oatechist,  who  would  be  greatly  cheered  by  the 
seal  and  sympathy  of  this  ytning  man. 

**  The  next  coofert,  received  a  year  ainee,  has  been  very  useful  in  persuading  others  ta 
become  Christians.  He  is  an  elderly  MamehUf  of  the  yellow  banner,  that  is,  of  the 
Emperor's  own  tribe.  Two  of  his  sons,  a  brother,  and  two  nephews  have  followed  him  in 
making  a  Christian  profession,  and  scYerai  of  his  acquaintances  he  has  also  induced  to  hear 
the  Gospel  preached,  which  has  led  to  their  renunciation  of  idolatry  and  the  adoption  of 
Christianity.  They  are  all  Ifancfttit,  and  in  the  receipt  of  sahvies  from  the  Chinese 
Government. 

'*  A  Mohammedan,  baptized  in  1863,  and  who  was  for  several  months  a  patient  aader 
Dr.  Lodcbart,  has  been  for  a  year  employed  as  a  schoolmaster  and  chapel*keeper.  He  has 
twenty  pupils,  four  of  whom  are  orphans  or  the  children  of  beggars;  and  these  are  supplied 
with  food  and  clothing  from  the  school  purse.  The  number  of  such  children  could  be 
increased,  if  we  had  funds  for  this  good  purpose. 

*'  At  the  chapel  where  this  school  is  conducted  there  is  a  good  congregation  on  Sabbath 
days,  and  a  Native  Catechist  is  also  in  daily  attendance.  It  is  distant  half  a  mile  from  the 
hospital,  and  has  in  connection  with  it  a  female  class,  at  which  a  large  number  of  native 
women  have  had  the  Gospel  plainly  explained  b^  a  zealous  and  persevering  female  friend. 
Three  or  four  Chinese  women,  attendants  at  this  class,  are  likely,  in  due  time,  to  beoome 
professed  Christians. 

'*  The  Boys'  School  has  worked  well,  by  leading  to  the  attendance  of  their  parents  at  the 
chapel  to  hear  the  tidings  of  salvation.  Three  such  men  have  been  baptised  during  the 
year,  who  were  all  providentially  brought  in  this  way  to  faith  in  Christ. 

**  The  preaching  of  the  truth  has  now  been  continued  for  more  than  a  y«ar  in  the 
western  put  of  the  Tartar  city,  and  has  resulted  in  the  baptism  of  thirteen  penoM. 
Lately  one  of  these  oil^red  his  services  gratuitously  as  a  schoolmaster  in  connection  wit^ 
the  chapel,  if  I  would  provide  him  a  room.  Accepting  the  offer,  I  fkmished  a  room,  aad 
lie  has  commenced  with  good  prospects* 

**  The  importance  of  school  instrootkNi  in  Peking  is  great,  whether  we  look  at  it  at  eon* 
irayiag  a  good  iaapression  to  the  public  nind  of  the  loving  spirit  of  Christianity,  or  as 
operating  beneflcially  in  inducing  firiends  of  pupils  to  become  attendants  at  worship. 

"The  first  female  convert  in  Peking  was  an  aged  Manekm  woman,  wlio  happily 
possessed  the  power  of  reading.  Her  son  brought  home  some  Christian  books  to  her— our 
▼olume  of  hymns,  a  catechism,  and  the  <  Peep  of  Day.'  8he  read  them  vrith  great  iotenst, 
and,  after  Chinese  fashion,  b^;an  to  commit  the  hymns  to  memory.  She  also  urged  her 
•on  to  attend  the  chapel  constantly,  for  the  doctrine  wu  good.  He  did  so,  and  became^ 
after  some  weeks,  an  applicant  for  baptism.  When  questioned  u  to  the  steps  bj  which  he 
had  been  led  to  seek  acquaintance  with  Christianity,  he  said  that  he  did  so  by  the 
direction  of  his  mother.  He  was  urged  to  bring  her  to  ehapel.  She  came,  but  had  to  be 
carried  by  her  son,  being  old  and  very  feeble.  After  a  second  interview  with  her  at  the 
chapel,  at  her  earnest  request  I  adnunistered  baptism  to  her.  She  witnessed  a  good  coa- 
Ibsrion  as  a  simple  and  sinoere  believer  in  the  merits  of  Him  who  died  for  men.  She  was 
very  soon  afterwards  taken  to  the  Church  ia  heaven.  I  saw  her  once  subsequently  to  her 
baptism,  and  learned  that  ahe  had  been  busy  in  instructing  the  female  members  of  Iht 
family,  one  of  whom,  a  Mind  girt  of  twelve,  gave  some  ready  answers  to  questions  which  I 
proposed.  On  Wednesday  last  the  s6a  came  with  sorrowful  tidings.  His  mother  had  ifiad 
after  an  unexpected  illness  of  five  dsjrs.  She  had  dictated  a  message  to  me  on  the  first 
day,  to  the  effect  that  she  hoped  to  be  at  chapel  on  the  second  Sabbath  afterwards.  She 
occupied  herself  with  repeating  three  of  the  hymns  and  the  Catechism,  and,  while  thus 
engiq^ed,  peacefully  departed.  This  afternoon  (28th  Dec.)  I  went  to  her  house  and  held  a 
religious  service  in  the  presence  of  the  family,  in  their  white  mourning,  and  about  twche 
of  the  Church  members.    1  frit  satisfaction  and  delight  while  giving  out  the  hymn —

To-morrow  morning  some  of  the  converts  will  accompany  the  remahM  to  the  grave,  whea 
the  Native  Evangelist  will  conduct  a  funeral  service.

**  We  hope  that  many  Mcntcku  ^  Cbiaete  women  will  follow  this  interettiiig  example 
of  vigorous  faith  in  an  aged  female  of  sixty-five. 

"  It  remains  only  to  speak  of  the  Native  agency.  Of  thirty  who  have  heen  baptized  at 
tlM  hospital  and  the  two  ehapels,  twelve  are  employed  as  preachers,  students,  schoolmasters^ 
and  sellers  of  the  Seriptiires. 

'*  Thus  we  have  mnch  reason  to  be  thankful  for  the  measure  of  success  granted  in  thia 
Mission ;  while  we  pray  that,  by  the  renewing  grace  of  God,  these  recent  converts  may  all 
be  made  shining  eiamples  of  the  power  of  the  truth." 

The  state  and  prospects  of  our  Chinese  Mission,  as  indicated  by  the  preceding  brief 
recitals,  ought  to  awaken  gratitude  and  satisfaction.  It  is  indeed  manifest  that  our 
Missionaries  labour  amoag  millions  debased  by  falsehood,  fraud,  and  sensuality ;  but  they 
bear  with  them  an  instrument  from  God  which  can  raise  even  these  from  their  deepest 
degradation ;  and  to  many  they  can  appeal  and  say,  *'  Such  were  some  of  you :  but  ye  are 
washed,  but  ye  are  sanctified,  but  ye  are  justified  in  the  name  of  the  Lord  Jesus,  and  by  the 
Spuit  of  our  God." 

The  amount  of  earfy  snecess  which  God  has  granted  to  the  labours  of  our  fsithfol 
brethren  ailbrds  a  blessed  contrsst  to  the  long-delayed  and  limited  snecess  of  their  devoted 
predecessors.  How  many  years  did  MonnisoN  and  Milne  toil,  in  hope  and  against  hope,, 
vrithout  a  solitary  Chinaman  in  whom  they  found  a  Christian  brother  1  The  baptism  of 
Leamg-a-fa  was  to  them  as  life  from  the  dead;  while  it  is  our  privilege  to  rejoice  with  our 
Missionaries  over  hundreds — hundreds  who  but  as  yesterday  were  dead  in  trespssses  and 
sins,  but  are  now  *'  quickened  together  with  Christ,  and  made  to  sit  together  in  heavenly 
places  in  Him.*' 

But  as  our  Chinese  Missions  supply  abundant  reward,  so  they  involve  corresponding 
obligations  for  enlarged  exertion.  The  fathers  and  founders  of  our  Society  felt  for  the 
millions  of  China,  and  sent  to  them  messengers  of  mercy,  when  every  section  of  the 
Protestant  Church,  cold  and  apathetic,  left  that  world  of  lost  souls  without  pity  and 
without  h^p.  Let  us,  by  God's  help,  prove  ourselves  equal  to  the  doty,  and  worthy  of  the 
honour,  which  they  have  bequeathed  to  us.  As  we  look  to  China  we  must  say,  with  an 
emphasis  stronger  and  more  distinctive  than  to  any  other  field  of  Missionary  toil^  ''The 
harvest  truly  is  great,  but  the  labourers  are  few."  And,  as  the  harvest  prospects  are 
equally  glorious  and  certain,  let  us  pray  more  earnestly  to  the  Lord  of  the  harvest  that  He 
would  send  forth  more  labourers — men  qualified  for  the  service  by  His  Holy  Spirit, 
uniting  strong  faith  with  child-like  dependence,  and  maintaining  the  purity  and  ardour  of 
their  zeal  at  the  altar  of  redeeming  love. 


INDIA. 

The  intimate  and  responsible  relationt  of  Britaitt  with  this  vast  empire  invest  it  with  special 
and  imperative  claims  upon  our  Missionary  sympathy  and  zeaL  Whatever  advantage 
India  has  already  received  from  the  intelligence,  the  mercantile  enterprise,  and  the 
ttlctary  legislation  of  our  government,  idolatry  ia  still  the  Irnitful  source  and  the  sustaining 
power  of  that  vice  and  misery  by  which  her  millions  are  enslaved. 

Several  years  have  now  passed  since  British  power  triumphed  in  the  suppression  of  the 
Indian  mutiny ;  and  the  triumph  of  oar  arms  haa  been  leUowed  by  many  jnst  and  beneieent 
measures  for  the  improvement  and  happiness  id  the  people ;  but,  if  any  sanguine  hope  waa 
entertained  by  our  countrymen  that  either  the  justiee  or  beneficence  of  our  rule  would  pre> 
dispose  the  people  to  adopt  the  religion  of  their  rulers,  such  hope  has  ended  in  disappoint- 
ment. Education,  unaecomptmied  by  reUffion^  haa  latterly  been  liberally  sustained  and 
widely  extended  by  the  Government;  bat,  whatever  social  advantages  may  result  from 
these  efforts,  the  enlightened  few  who  have  been  taught  to  despise  idolatry  still  coalocm  to

its  debating  claims,  while  they  hold  in  contempt  and  hatred  the  character  and  worship  of 
onr  DiTine  Redeemer. 

The  following  picture  of  Hindooism  at  t7  t«  is  given  by  the  Rbt.  E.  A.  WAmsBAM, 
recently  appointed  to  Bsloaubc  as  colleague  with  the  Rbt.  W.  Bbtmon  :— 

**  A  festiTal  was  held  in  the  village  named  Kurthet  about  three  miles  from  Belganm.  As 
it  is  the  fir«>t  at  which  I  have  been  present,  and  thinldng  it  would  be  interesting  to  yon*  I 
will  endeavour  to  describe  what  I  saw. 

"  Mr.  Beynon  and  four  of  the  assistants  went.  The  day  was  very  hot — abont  86"  in  the 
shade.  Notwithstanding  the  excessive  heat,  crowds  of  natives  gaily  dressed  were  eageily 
pressing  towards  the  village.  This  is  one  of  the  largest  viHage  festivals  in  this  part  of  the 
country,  at  which  some  hundreds  of  people  pass  through  the  fire.    But  of  this  anon. 

'*  We  made  our  way  through  crowds  of  people  to  the  temples,  and  there  a  scene  of  the 
wildest  confusion  presented  itself.  There  must  have  been  some  six  or  seven  thontfd 
people  present. 

"  There  are  two  temples  belonging  to  the  Jain  sect :  in  both  Shiva  is  worshipped  ;  in  one 
under  the  form  of  the  Liugam,  and  in  the  other  in  the  form  of  a  bull.  These  temples  were 
crowded  with  people,  who  were  scattering  cocoa-nuts,  plantains,  water-melons,  and  coarse 
sngar  among  the  crowds  of  half-naked  worshippers— I  should  rather  have  said  revellers,  so 
little  like  worship  was  anything  I  saw. 

'*  Wherever  we  went  we  soon  got  a  good  congregation,  and  the  sublime  truths  of  the 
Gospel  of  Christ  were  preached.  I  never  longed  so  much  to  speak  the  Canarese  as  then, 
seeing  thousands  of  my  fellow-men  in  rebellion  against  the  true  God,  and  paying  DiTine 
honours  to  a  stone. 

'*  A  number  of  the  people,  of  whom  half  were  women,  having  bathed,  proceeded  to  the 
house  of  the  Jangam  priest.  After  worshipping  him,  they  laid  themselves  flat  on  the 
ground,  and  began  to  roll  themselves  towards  the  temple,  a  distance  of  about  a  quarter  of  a 
mile.  I  counted  seventy-three  rolling  themselves  along  on  the  bare  ground,  nearly  naked, 
the  burning  sun  pouring  down  upon  them ;  and  several  were  led  away  quite  exhausted  before 
they  reached  the  temple.  I  saw  one  little  boy,  about  six  years  of  age,  rolling  over  the 
sharp  stones :  the  poor  little  fellow  appeared  quite  worn  ont ;  at  last  his  mother  took  hiss 
up.  All  these  people  had  made  vows  to  Shiva.  These  were  followed  by  the  Jangam 
himself.  The  people  spread  their  garments  for  him  to  walk  upon,  and  numbers  of  men 
with  rams'  tails  were  gently  waving  them  about  to  keep  him  cool.  Then  followed  the  gods 
(borne  in  palkies),  which  had  been  brought  from  the  neighbouring  villages,  on  a  visit  of 
ceremony  to  the  god  of  this  village.,  These  were  accompanied  by  numbers  of  men  bearing 
banners  and  blowmg  the  most  discordant  instruments.  The  whole  procession  ranged  before 
a  large  fire  of  burning  charcoal,  making  a  square  of  about  sixteen  feet,  and  about  four  inches 
deep. 

'*  A  priest,  having  first  performed  the  usual  act  of  worship,  sprinkled  all  round  the  fire 
with  sacred  water.  This  being  done,  mats  were  placed  at  each  corner,  upon  which  offerings 
were  heaped;  then  another  priest  came  with  a  burning  lamp  and  a  large  bell,  which  he 
rang  at  each  comer,  at  the  same  time  waving  the  lamp  over  it.  going  round  and  round  the 
fire,  as  though  not  liking  to  venture  through  it :  at  last  be  boldly  dashed  through,  followed 
by  the  whole  procession,  including  the  gods.  I  should  think  at  the  very  least  about  700 
people  passed  through  the  fire,  principally  men;  but  I  saw  women  and  children  pan 
through  also.  One  man  was  knocked  down,  and  he  appeared  very  much  burnt  Then  came 
a  crowd  of  women  and  children  who  had  the  hot  ashes  poured  upon  their  heads. 

'*  Could  Christians  at  home  see  Hindooism  in  all  its  withering,  soul-destroying  power, 
they  would  be  more  earnest  in  sending  the  Gospel  of  life  to  this  dark,  dark  land.  There 
would  then  be  a  noble  self-sacrifice  that  the  Heathen  might  receive  the  knowledge  of  a 
Saviour." 

Sudi  are  still  the  cruel  and  degrading  superstitions  of  our  Indian  fellow.snbjeets ;  and  the 
only  corrective  for  these  monster  evils  must  be  sought  in  the  Divine  and  gracious  power  cf 
Christianity ~ Christianity  diffused  by  that  moral  agency  which  it  both  sanctions  and  sip- 
plies,  and  commended  in  the  spirit  of  gentleness  and  love  which  it  never  fails  to  evoke. 

To  secure  the  regeneration  of  India  by  the  peaoeful  diffusion  of  the  Gospel  is  the  ssk 
object  of  all  Missionary  operationa ;  and,  although  to  the  thoughtless  and  the  sceptical  tk 
enterprise  seems  hopeless,  we  thank  God  that  His  Word  hu  been  preached  "in  (

ton  of  the  Spirit  tnd  with  power/*  ao  that  thousands  and  tens  of  thousands  in  diffSerent 
kingdoms,  and  among  different  tribes,  throughout  that  empiret  have  **  turned  to  God  from 
idols  to  serve  the  living  and  true  God ;  and  to  wait  for  His  Son  from  heaven,  whom  He 
raised  from  the  dead,  even  Jesus,  which  delivered  us  from  the  wrath  to  come." 

The  valme  of  Missionary  success  in  India  is  not  to  be  estimated  chiefly,  much  less 
exclusively,  by  the  number  of  Native  Christians,  but  rather  by  their  character  and  i$^uence» 
On  this  subject  the  following  testimony  of  the  Rbt.  F.  Baylts,  an  experienced  Missionary 
in  Trayancori,  and  the  pastor  of  a  Native  Church  of  neariy  three  hundred  members, 
cannot  but  afford  devont  satisfaction . — 

**  I  cannot  but  think,"  he  writes,  "  that,  taking  one  thing  with  another,  the  Chnrch  here 
would  bear  comparison  with  most  Churches  of  the  same  numbers  at  home.  The  same 
spirituality  of  mind  and  earnestness  in  the  Lord's  work,  often  seen  in  more  advanced  Chris- 
tians in  England,  can  scarcely  be  expected ;  but,  surrounded  as  they  are  by  great  tempta- 
tions and  many  evil  influences,  exhaling  day  by  day  a  tainted  atmosphere,  we  rejoice  in 
that  whereto  they  have  already  attained,  and  commend  them  to  Him  who  Ms  able  to  keep 
them  from  falling,  and  to  present  them  faultless  before  the  presence  of  His  glory  with  exceeding 


The  severe  test  to  which  the  Hindoo  convert  must  submit  who  renouuces  the  supersti- 
tions of  his  fathers  for  the  faith  of  Christ  is  in  every  case  a  strong  proof  of  his  sincerity ; 
and,  in  a  majority  of  instances,  the  Jiery  trial  through  which  he  passes  demands  ttronff 
faith  in  the  Gospel  and  love  to  the  Redeemer — ^love  warmer  and  stronger  than  he  bears  to 
father  and  mother,  wife  and  children,  houses  and  lands ;  and,  unless  he  is  willing  to  become 
an  outcast,  friendless,  and  poor,  and  to  be  hated  of  all  men,  for  Christ's  sake,  he  cannot  be 
His  disciple. 

It  cannot  be  denied,  and  need  not  be  concealed,  that  our  Indian  fellow-Chriatians  are 
often  subject  to  infirmities,  and  sometimes  chargeable  with  strange  weaknesses  and  imper- 
fections ;  but  these  are  attributable  to  the  influence  of  their  former  paganism  rather  than  to 
the  want  of  Christian  sincerity ;  while,  on  the  other  hand,  the  most  encouraging  feature  of 
oiir  Churches  is  found  in  the  progressive  intelligence  and  consistency  of  the  members. 

The  journals  of  our  Missionaries  supply  many  striking  examples  of  personal  and  domestic 
piety  in  the  converts ;  and,  in  contrast  with  the  selfishness  and  insensibility  which  charac- 
terize Heathenism,  the  Native  Christians  often  manifest  to  their  suffering  relatives  and 
neighbours  a  generous  and  self-denying  sympathy  in  the  relief  and  comfort  they  afford. 
H^nce,  in  connection  with  the  Indian  Churches  generally,  there  are  societies,  as  amongst 
ourselves,  for  affording  seasonable  help  to  the  sick,  the  aged,  and  the  poor. 

In  former  years  the  Hindoo  convert  often  exhibited  the  natural  weakness  of  his  character 
by  dependence,  almost  abject,  on  European  teachers  and  friends;  but  now,  under  the 
influence  of  Christian  principle,  he  manifests  a  sense  of  dbligation  and  of  self-respect  which 
induces  him  to  do  what  he  can  for  his  own  support  and  for  the  advantage  of  others,  and 
which,  above  all,  constrains  him  to  put  forth  with  cheerfulness  his  strength  in  the  service 
of  his  Saviour  and  the  advancement  of  His  kingdom.  If  school-houses  are  required,  he  will 
assist  in  their  erection;  if  new  chapels  must  be  built,  by  his  personal  efforts  or  his 
Christian  offerings  he  will  take  hia  share  of  the  work  ;  towards  the  education  of  his  children 
he  will  be  willing  to  contribute  the  required  school  fee ;  and  for  the  support  of  his  native 
pastor  he  will  give  freely  as  he  has  freely  received.  As  illustrations,  the  ordinary  contribu- 
tions of  the  Native  Church  at  Calcutta  for  the  last  year  amounted  to  nearly  £120 ;  and 
the  income  of  the  Educational  Institution  exceeded  JC270,  the  latter  being  nearly  threefold 
the  amount  received  three  years  since.  Digitized  by  V^O 

These  evidences  of  Christian  liberality  may  be  thought  exceptional,  and  restricted  to  the 
North,  and  especially  to  the  metropolis  of  India ;  but,  in  the  native  state  of  Trayancorb,

oontributions  as  the  beat  evidenoe  of  piety,  or  the  moat  precious  eflfering  hi  the  sight  of 
God  ;  but  they  are  adduced  as  clear  and  gratifying  cTidence  that,  in  these  Hindoo  ^nYerts* 
the  selfishness  of  Paganism  has  giren  place  to  the  generous  spirit  of  Christianity,  and  that, 
in  the  progressiTO  inflnence  of  this  Divine  principle  of  their  renewed  nature,  the  GospsL 
will  secure  for  itself,  even  in  India,  the  power  of  self-support  and  self-extension. 

The  Directors  cannot  conclude  these  brief  statements  in  relation  to  the  Sodety'a  In^an 
Missions  without  expressing  the  high  gratification  and  sanguine  hope  with  which  they 
regard  the  increaae  and  improvement  of  Native  agency.  The  measures  proeeented  fiar 
several  years  for  giving  to  Christian  converts  pf  approved  character  and  promising  talenta  a 
course  of  suitable  training  for  different  departments  of  labour,  as  teachers,  oateehists,  and 
evangelists,  have  brought  great  advantages  to  the  eanse  of  Missions.  The  Native  agents, 
by  their  superior  education  and  Christian  character,  aecure  from  the  people  generally 
greater  attention  and  respect ;  and  their  familiarity  with  the  languages,  feelings,  and  1 
of  their  countrymen  renders  them  invaluable  as  fellow-labourers  with  the  English  1 
During  recent  years  several  of  these  devoted  evangelists  have  received  ordination  aa  ] 
er  co-pastors  with  our  Missionaries  over  the  Native  Churches;  and  in  this  capacity  they 
are  now  stationed  in  Calcutta,  Benares,  Chicaoole,  Cuddapah,  Bangalore,  Madraa,  Belganas, 
and  Travaneore.  And,  while  we  should  fervently  pray  that  the  Lord  of  the  harvest  veonM 
send  forth  from  our  Churchea  at  home  more  labourers  into  the  harvest,  we  long  for  the 
time— and  the  time  we  antidpate-^when  every  British  husbandman  shall  have  many 
native  evangeUsta  and  pastors  enjoying  his  oounseki,  toiling  at  his  side,  and  sharing  hia 
reward. 

MADAGASCAR. 

With  feelings  of  humble  gratitude  to  God  the  Directors  are  able  to  presani  n  fiywt, 
brief,  but  highly  encouraging,  in  relation  to  the  oountry  and  the  Government,  and  no  leaa  eC 
the  state  and  prospects  of  the  Mission. 

The  latest  information  received  is  from  the  Rby.  Robset  Tot,  who  has  laboorad  in  the 
capital  and  t^c  surrounding  country  since  the  antumn  of  1862,  and  who  is  therefore  ecoaipa 
tent  witness  of  the  several  important  events  that  have  transpired,  indnding  the  abort  reign  ef 
lUoAMA  II.,  and  the  elevation  of  hia  widow  to  the  throne  of  Madagaacar.  Mr.  T^ 
writes — 

"  Since  the  removal  of  the  late  Prime  Minister  considerable  improvement  has  asken  pkei 
in  the  general  state  of  the  country.  No  new  attempts  to  create  a  revolution  have  boss 
made,  and  no  fresh  rumours  respecting  the  resuscitation  of  the  late  King  have  arisen.  It 
is  now  generally  believed  that  the  previous  ones  were  set  afloat  by  the  authorities  themaehei, 
for  the  purpose  of  discovering  who  their  real  friends  were ;  at  all  events,  they  seem  to  hare 
been  well  informed  firom  the  first  in  reference  to  the  principal  parties  implicated*     VIA 


FOE  juine,  1865.  171 

reipoct  to  Ui6  parties  eonoerned  in  the  last  attempt  to  OTerthrow  tbe  GoTernment,  they  haye 
acted,  on  the  whole,  with  yery  considerable  forbearance.  With  the  exception  of  eighteen 
persons  pat  to  death,  and  a  few  others  put  in  chains,  a  free  pardon  has  been  granted  to  all, 
and  those  in  concealment  have  been  inyited  to  return  in  good  fidth  to  their  homes — an  offer 
«f  which,  I  belieye,  all  haye  availed  themselves." 

TranqnHlity  prevails  generally  throughout  the  country,  and,  although  both  the  sovereign 
and  the  Government  are  avowedly  heathen,  they  practically  uphold  the  laws,  and  sanction 
religions  freedom  among  all  classes.  Ma.  Pakbnham,  the  British  Consul,  has  returned  to 
the  capital ;  and  in  the  new  treaty  of  peace  and  unity  between  our  Government  and  that  of 
Madagascar,  which  he  has  recently  negotiated,  provision  is  made  for  civil  and  religious 
liberty  both  to  our  countrymen  and  to  the  Native  Christians,  which  of  course  our  Mission- 
aries regard  with  thankfulness  and  satisfaction. 

During  the  past  year  the  Mission  has  been  both  extended  and  consolidated.  The  number 
of  Missionaries,  including  our  venerable  friend  the  Rav.  William  Ellib,  who  have 
laboorad  ia  the  city  of  AiiTAKAKAaiTo  has  been  eight,  besides  three  lay  agents,  severally 
devoted  to  the  erection  of  the  Memorial  Churches,  a  hospital  for  the  sick,  and  the  direc- 
tion of  tbe  press.  The  medical  and  sorgical  skill  of  Da.  Davidson  has  been  eatenstvely 
applied,  and  has  proved  of  incalcalable  value  to  multitudci  of  the  people  labouring  under 
4liffsreat  forms  of  disease. 

Seven  eongregatUmi  have  been  estaMished  in  the  capital,  the  aggregate  nomber  of  attend- 
anU  being  more  than  5000,  and  the  number  of  Church  members  exceeding  1400.  The 
number  of  hearers  now  stated  applies  to  the  morning  •ervice ;  but  in  the  afternoon  there 
is  to  some  extent  a  cfaaage  of  persons,  making  at  least  6000  attendants  dtiring  the  Sabbath; 
and  to  these  must  be  added  not  less  probably  than  1000  more,  detained  from  various  causes 
iiom  public  worship,  making  about  7000  professed  Christiana  residing  la  the  city. 

*'  With  respect  to  my  own  vrork,"  writes  Mr.  Toy,  "  everything  seems  going  on  as  satis- 
€M!tory  as  I  could  wish.  During  tbe  year  we  have  put  up  a  gc^  substantial  clay  chapel, 
much  larger,  and  in  every  respect  better,  than  the  old  one,  which,  besides  being  too  small, 
was  built  so  hastily  aa  to  be  scarcely  safe  to  worship  in  during  a  heavy  storm.  I  never 
mias  a  month  without  baptizing  several.  Last  Sunday  eighteen  were  baptized,  and  seven 
more  have  already  given  their  aamos  for  the  following  month.  The  nomber  of  members 
BOW  on  the  Church  book  is  220,  and  upwards  of  thirty  are  waiting  to  be  admitted. 

"  In  addition  to  the  Church  at  Ambohipotsy,  I  have  now  under  my  care  iitne  country 
Chmrehee,    These  I  continue  to  visit  as  often  as  possible." 

From  tbe  Rar.  William  Ellis  the  subjoined  gratifying  intelligence  has  been  received 
relative  to  the  Spread  of  Christianity  in  the  country  districts  around  the  capital : — 

"  The  Gospel  is  still  spreading  among  the  villages.  The  week  before  last  I  preached  at 
the  opening  of  a  new  chapel  at  Ilafy,  an  ancient,  picturesque,  and  celebrated  royal  village, 
once  the  capital  of  the  surrounding  country,  where  not  fewer  than  500  persons  were  present. 
The  chapel,  which,  including  the  minister's  room  and  vestry  under  the  same  roof,  is  nearly 
80  feet  long  and  proportionably  wide,  was  built  by  the  people  themselves,  and  is  one  of  the 
neatest  and  best-finished  places  of  worship  I  have  yet  seen  in  Madagascar." 

Not  only  in  the  villages  around  the  metropolis,  and  In  the  more  distant  parts  of  the 
province  of  iMsaiNA,  but  in  districts  distant  several  days' }oumey,  companies  of  Christians 
are  found  who,  in  the  dark  days  of  persecution,  witre  driven  into  exile  to  Escape  slavery  or 
death.  At  the  date  of  Mr.  Ellis's  Itst  letter  he  was  about  to  start  for  Ft ANAaANTsOA, 
having  received  an  urgent  request  from  a  body  of  Christians  there  who  had  never  seen  an 
Bnglbb  teacher.  Digit  zed  by  L^OOgk

172  MISSIOKABT  MAGAZINE 

Maukdrbll,  lately  oommenced  Miuionary  kboora  in  the  profince  of  Vobsxarx,  tbe 
mott  northern  part  of  Madagascar. 

The  description  which  they  give  of  the  generd  character  and  habiu  of  the  people  conre- 
tponds  too  accurately  with  that  given  of  the  heathen  population  throughout  the  cooatry. 
They  are  ignorant,  untruthful,  selfish,  and  licentious  in  the  extreme.  But,  on  the  other 
hand,  the  newly  arrived  strangers  were  welcomed  <t$  En^Ushmen,  and  among  the  Havat  thej 
met  with  a  few  individuals,  including  the  governor  and  his  wife,  who  appeared  to  be  turn 
Christians.  The  former  spoke  of  the  days  when  he  was  accustomed  at  the  capital  to  hold 
religious  meetings  with  Freeman  and  other  Missionaries,  and  showed  the  Bible  which* 
during  the  persecuting  reign  of  Queen  Ranavalona,  had  been  buried  in  the  sand  for  its 
preservation. 

The  Missionaries  describe  their  introduction  to  the  governor  of  this  remote  province  at 
follows : — 

"  The  Hovas  hold  a  position,  with  respect  to  the  Missionary,  and  to  the  other  tribet  of 
Madagascar,  similar  to  that  which  the  Jewish  converts  did  in  the  time  of  the  apostle  PauL 
Many  of  them,  having  received  the  Christian  faith  at  Antananarivo,  may  be  found  professhig 
that  faith  in  the  remotest  parts  of  their  country.  For  instance,  the  governor  of  Vohemare, 
we  have  heard,  is  a  Christian,  and  hu  built  a  small  house  of  prayer  and  praise  for  himself, 
his  wife,  and  a  few  others,  at  Amboanio.  He  met  us  at  the  door,  and  we  were  introdooed 
to  him  by  Mr.  Guinette.  He  appeared  very  glad  to  see  us  ;  so  also  did  his  wife,  who  was 
sitting  at  his  side  from  first  to  last.  He  said  that  he  had  heard  from  Taroatave  and  from 
the  capital  of  our  coming,  and  had  awaited  our  arrival  month  after  month.  He  and  his 
wife,  with  two  or  three  more,  are  the  only  baptised  Christians  here.  Oh,  what  a  mercy  to 
have  them  1  In  alluding  to  the  work  of  the  Missionaries  in  Madagascar,  the  governor  said 
that  as  the  sun  dispels  the  darkness,  and  sheds  light  and  comfort  upon  the  earth,  so  the 
light  of  Christianity  was  beginning  to  shine  amidst  the  darkness  of  hia  own  country.  He 
alluded  also  to  the  times  of  persecution,  showed  us  a  Bible  which  he  had  buried  beneath 
the  sand  in  those  times,  and  repeated  the  passage  of  Scripture  that  gave  him  and  his  fellow- 
Christians  comfort  when  forsaken  by  all  his  friends ;  via.,  Matthew  xii.  49,  50,  *  Bebold 
my  mother  and  my  brethren  1  For  whosoever  shall  do  the  will  of  my  Father  which  is  ia 
heaven,  the  same  is  my  brother,  and  sister,  and  mother.' 

**  Lord's  Day,  Nov.  13th. — Mr.  Campbell  and  I  had  scarcely  finiihed  breakfast  this  morn- 
ing on  board  the  vessel,  when  the  governor's  private  secretary  (a  Christian)  came  on  board  with 
a  message  from  him  to  this  effect :  '  The  governor  says  the  Lord's  day  has  now  oorne*  and 
he  wishes  you  two  white  men  to  come  and  join  with  him  in  singing  and  prayer.'  We  at 
once  accompanied  the  messenger  to  the  governor's  bouse.  He  was  reading  the  Bible  when 
we  arrived,  with  his  wife  seated  at  his  side.  After  a  little  geneial  conversation,  he  alladed 
to  the  meetings  for  prayer,  &c.,  which  he  used  to  enjoy  in  Mr.  Freeman's  time,  and  expressed 
a  wish  that  all  of  us  should  now  join  in  like  manner  in  singing  the  praises  of  the  Lord.  Many 
hymns  were  sung,  some  to  English,  and  some  to  Mal4;a8y  tunes.  Then  I  read  the  1st 
chapter  of  the  Acts  of  the  Apostles,  Mr.  Campbell  the  Litany,  and  Charles  le  Boa 
concluded  with  an  extempore  prayer." 

We  recognise  in  this  long-hidden  treasure  the  diligence  and  fidelity  of  the  first  Mis- 
sionaries to  Madagascar.  Foreseeing  the  rising  storm,  and  knowing  that  their  time  for 
toil  was  short,  they  laboured  day  and  night  that  they  might  give  to  the  people  in  their  own 
tongue  the  Word  of  the  living  God ;  and,  thus  armed  against  the  power  of  the  tyrant  with 
the  sword  of  the  Spirit  and  the  shield  of  faith,  they  were  prepared  both  for  attack  and 
defence,  and  proved  more  than  conquerors,  through  Him  that  loved  them.  The  r^entkss 
persecutor,  who  vowed  to  exterminate  the  Bible  throughout  Madagascar,  and  who  coald 
not  be  happy  while  a  single  Christian  breathed  in  her  dominions,  now  sleeps  in  anhonoiired 
dust^  and  her  name  is  remembered  only  to  be  hated ;  but  '*  the  Word  of  the  Lord  endoreth 
for  eter." 

At  the  invitation  of  the  Directors,  the  Rbv.  William  Ellis  hastened  to  Madagascar  m 
the  aooeuion  of  Rasama  II.  to  the  throne  on  the  death  of  his  mother.    He  left  Engbod 


FOR  JUNE,  1865.  173 

in  NoTember  1861,  reached  the  city  of  Antananariyo  in  the  following  June,  and  was 
iojMlj  received  by  the  young  monarch.  The  ahort  career  of  the  King,  which  commenced 
ao  anapicioualy,  rapidly  degenerated  into  the  loweat  forma  of  Tice,  and  within  two  yeara 
termiDated  in  hia  depoaition  and  murder. 

In  Radama  II.  Mr.  Ellis  expected  to  find  a  nurahig  father  to  the  Church,  but  liia  ezpee- 
tationa  ended  in  the  keenest  disappointment,  and  with  fearful  omens  for  the  future  interests 
of  Chriatianity.  But  Mr.  Ellia  remained  at  his  post  firm  and  faithful,  and  rendered 
▼aluable  service  both  to  the  new  Government  and  to  the  Native  Christians.  He  has  now 
outlived  hia  feara>  and,  trusting  to  Him  whose  grace  and  power  have  hitherto  been  the  safe* 
guard  of  His  Church  in  Madagascar,  Mr.  Ellia  antidpatea  with  confidence  her  freedom  and 
enlargement. 

While  the  Directora  cannot  adequately  estimate  the  value  of  the  services  of  Mr.  EUis  in 
Madagascar,  they  do  not  feel  at  liberty  by  urgent  requests  to  prolong  his  absence  from  his 
home  and  friends,  which  has  already  exceeded  by  a  year  the  time  originally  contemplated. 
Tmating,  therefore,  to  that  unremitting  care  and  attention  granted  to  our  venerable  friend 
throughout  the  vicissitudes  of  his  prolonged  and  honoured  life,  the  Directors  anticipate  with 
ainoere  pleaaure  his  arrival  in  England  during  the  ensuing  autumn.  As  the  representatiTC 
of  the  Society  in  Madagascar,  Mr.  Ellia  will  return  with  their  confidence  strengthened  and 
their  gratitude  increaaed ;  and  their  eameat  prayers  will  ascend  to  the  God  of  all  grace  that, 
throughout  the  eventide  of  life.  His  faithful  aervant  may  largely  ahare  the  richest  enjoy- 
ments and  the  brighteat  hopea  which  the  love  of  the  Saviour  and  the  grace  of  the  Holy 
Spint  can  impart. 

In  this  abbreviated  recital  of  the  Society's  operations  manifold  instancea  of  self-denying 
labonr  have  been  omitted,  on  which  the  Missionary's  God  has  smiled ;  and  many  reaults 
of  anch  labour  have  been  passed  over  in  which  the  angels  of  heaven  have  rejoiced,  and  in 
which  the  glorified  Redeemer  haa  beheld  the  travail  of  His  soul  and  has  been  satisfied. 

But  while  the  Directors  bear  their  just  and  willing  teatimony  to  the  diligence  and  fidelity 
of  their  devoted  brethren  in  every  section  of  the  Mission  field,  they  do  but  give  utterance 
to  the  deep  convictions  and  earnest  desires  of  these  labourers,  in  the  language  of  the  great 
Miaaionary,  " Brethren,  pray  for  us!" 

While  with  adoring  gratitude  we  review  the  past,  we  may,  by  the  omnipotence  of  prayer, 
accelerate  the  coming  of  still  better  times.  On  many  a  heathen  land,  lately  as  hard  and 
aterile  as  the  atill  aurrounding  desert,  the  husbandman  has  broken  up  the  fkllow  ground, 
prepared  the  soil,  and  with  liberal  hand  haa  broadcast  the  earth  with  the  seed  of  God's 
kingdom.  And  now  he  waiteth  for  the  precioua  Aruit  of  the  earth,  and  hath  long  patience, 
vntil  he  receive  the  early  and  the  latter  rain.  Nor  ahall  he  wait  in  vain.  But  let  us 
aoatain  his  patience  and  strengthen  his  faith  by  earnest  intercession  with  Him  who,  having 
given  the  promise  of  a  blessing,  has  yet  said,  '*  For  thia  will  I  be  inquired  of  by  the  house 
of  Israel,  to  do  it  for  them."  Let  ua  agonise  in  prayer,  nor  let  Him  go  until  He  bless  us  f 
and  times  of  refreahing  firom  the  presence  of  the  Lord  vrill  aurely  come.  The  Spirit  shall  be 
poured  forth  from  on  high,  and  the  reward  of  the  labourer  shall  no  longer  bo  restricted  to 
scattered  ears  or  to  the  handful  of  **flrH'Jruit$/'  but  in  every  land,  with  glad  and  thankful 
heart,  he  wili  bear  the  golden  sheaTCs  to  the  gamer,  and  celebrate  with  rapture  the  harvest- 
home  of  a  ransomed,  regenerated,  happy  world* 

At  the  conclusion  of  the  Report  Dr.  Liyingstonb,  who  was  at  the  back  of  the  platform, 
was  conducted  to  a  place  next  to  the  hon.  Chairman,  and  was  re<>;ived  with  great 
enthusiasm. 

The  CHAiaMAN : — ^My  Christian  Friends,^!  am  sure  you  will  have  forgiven  me  for 
departing  in  some  measure  from  the  usual  course  of  proceeding,  in  having  that  intereating 


174  MISSIONABY  MAGAZINE 

and  iraluable  Report  read  before  any  observatioiis  from  the  ehair;  but  when  we  remember 
that  we  are  met  as  a  Missionary  Society,  I  for  one  fieeU  ^od  I  think  'yeu  will  join  mUt  me 
in  that  feeling,  that  we  are  assembled  for  Missionary  purposes,  and  to  thank  and  praise 
God  for  all  He  has  ^one,  and  to  do  honour  to  those  who  bear  the  burden  and  heat  of  the 
day ;  and  therefore  I  feel  that  the  key-note  to  a  meeting  of  this  sort  is  far  better  given  by 
a  Report  such  as  that  which  has  been  read  by  Dr.  Tidman,  who  has  this  day  told  yoo  Hm* 
for  five-and-twenty  years,  through  God's  goodness,  he  has  read  the  Reports  to  us ;  and  I 
feel  that  it  is  far  more  profitable  for  you  to  listen  to  tbeae  details  and  facta,  coming  as  ih&f 
do  from  those  who  really  know  the  work,  than  to  listen  to  me,  who»  though  heartify 
rejoicing  to  take  a  humble  part  in  a  meeting  of  this  nature,  am  certainly  not  qaaMed  to 
give  the  key-note  on  such  an  occasion.    I  have  listened  to  that  Report  with  the  deqxti 
interest,  and«  as  your  Treasurer,  I  feel  that  we  hate  eaote  of  Ihankfalness  that  this,  the  first 
time  I  have  had  the  honour  and  pleasure  of  presiding,  should  be  the  occasion  on  whidi  the 
Secretary  is  able  to  tell  Us  that  a  laig er  amount  of  funds  has  been  collected  than  in  any 
previous  year.    There  was  one  observation  whieh  I  caught  in  the  Report,  namely,  that  iD 
Demerara  some  of  our  Missionaries  had  suffered  somewhat  from  the  effect  of  that  war 
which  has,  to  our  great  regret,  been  devastating  the  United  States;  and  I  think  I  abonld 
be  wanting  in  my  duty  if,  in  any  meeting  of  Englishmen,  and  particularly  in  a  meeting  snch 
as  this,  I  did  not  express  that  sympathy  which  we  feel  with  that  great  people,  who  are- 
bound  to  us  not  only  by  the  ties  of  Uoodt  i^  language,  and  religion,  but  by  that  sympa^y 
which  I  hope  will  continue  growingly  to  unite  ne ;  and  I  am  sure  that  I  am  only  eipreesttg- 
your  feelings  when  I  say  that  we  have  felt  with  them  the  deepest  sympathy  in  recent  events, 
and  that  we  do  thank  God  and  rejoice  at  the  termination  of  that   war — a  war  which 
will  end,  I  am  sure,  in  the  happiness  of  that  great  country.    As  we  listened  to  the  Report, 
how  eloquently  fell  on  our  ears  the  names  of  such  venerated  Misneoaries  as  Philip,  and 
Moffat,  and  Ellis;  and  now  we  hear,  in  connection  with  that  most  interesting  Miesien  to 
Peking,  the  name  of  Lockbart.    Do  not  those  namea  speak  to  us  far  more  eloquently  than 
anything  which  can  fall  from  any  one  who  has  not  the  means  of  praetioaUy  knowing  tlie 
labours  of  the  Mission  field  ?    What  a  blessing  it  »  to  think  that  Moffst  is  spared  to  as, 
and  that  we  have  around  us  younger  men — men  who  are  ready  to  undertake  the  work,  and 
who  are  ready  to  go  forward,  and  take  the  places  of  thoee  venerated  patnarcfae.    There  was 
one  point  which  I  was  glad  to  hear  touched  upon  in  the  Report,  and  which  is  the  only 
thing  with  which  I  shall  now  detaki  you.    I  am  glad  to  hear  that  it  ia  the  oonvietioo,  not 
only  in  our  own  Society  here,  but,  I  believe,  in  all  similar  Societies,  that  we  must  look  i 
and  more  to  the  raising  up  of  native  agemfiea  for  the  work.    Has  not  the  time  come  i 
we  may  review  the  work  of  our  Missions  ?  and  can  we  for  a  moment  hesitate  to  bdieve,  looking 
at  the  teeming  populations  of  India  and  China,  that  it  is  not  poesible — reasoning  aocordsngte 
human  means,  and  according  to  what  experience  has  taug^  ut— that  we  shall  be  aUe  to  tend 
out  men  sufficient  to  instruct  those  great  peoplea  ?    Are  we  not  more  and  more  tanght  that 
we  may  go  forward  in  faith,  and  enoonrage  our  Missionaries,  and,  perhaps,  sooner  than  hit 
hitherto  been  done,  encourage  even  new  converts  to  go  out  among  these  masses,  while  they 
have  all  the  fervour  and  love  of  their  Saviour  in  their  hearts  ?    I  believe  that,  with  God's 
blessing,  if  that  be  kept  in  mind,  year  after  year,  when  we  celebrate  our  anniversaries,  we 
shall  have  to  bless  God  more  and  more<    It  may  be  humbling  to  us  to  knew  that  we  and 
our  beloved  Missionaries  may  have  to  sow,  and  leave  others  to  reap ;  but  I  believe  that, 
until  we  have  a  larger  and  more  effective  native  agency,  we  shall  not  tee  those  great  results 
which  we  are  promised.    Blessed  be  God  for  His  predons  Word;  for  we  do  not  labour  on  a 
"  perad venture."    We  may  have  to  wait,  and  look  on;  but  we  do  know,  and  we  have  Hit 
gracious  and  blessed  promise,  that  Christ  will  one  day  reign  King  of  kings,  and  Lord  of 
lords!

number  of  devoted  Missionaries,  is  thankAil  that  He  has  raised  up  othi^r  Ubourcns  to  occupy  the 
poets  of  their  departed  brethren.** 

Sir,  it  is  extremely  encouraging,  certainly,  to  the  Directors  of  this  Sodety,  to  think  that,  at 
the  close  of  seventy-one  years  of  labour,  they  have  to  report  to-day  a  larger  income,  raised 
by  the  friends  of  this  Society,  during  the  past  year  than  daring  any  corresponding  period  of 
its  history  ;  and,  sir,  let  me  say  that  it  is  not  to  be  forgotten,  in  relation  to  that,  that  this 
income  has  been  raised  in  a  year  when  those  who  know  Lancashire  will  be  prepared  to  say 
the  pressure  of  distress  has  been  felt  there  more  severely  than  at  any  former  time  of  the 
cotton  famine.  Seventy,  one  years  of  labonr  constitute  a  very  short  time  in  a  nation's  his- 
tory, a  very  insignificant  period  in  the  development  of  God's  purposes,  but  still  quite  a 
sufficient  period  for  testing  the  principles  and  the  faith  of  those  by  whom  this  Society  is 
carried  oik  During  those  sevienty-one  years  more  than  one  generation  of  Directors,  Mis- 
aionaries,  and  contributors  have  passed  away ;  and  in  the  fact  that  others  rise  up  we  have 
a  proof  that  this  Society  has  not  been  originated  merely  by  the  enthusiasm  of  a  few,  but 
that  it  rests  upon  great  spiritual  principles,  which,  taking  hold  of  the  hearts  of  men,  are  sure 
to  propagate  themselves,  and  so  cause  the  work  which  they  inspire  to  go  on  from  genera- 
tion to  generation.  Thus,  instead  of  the  fathers,  the  children  are  rising  up  to  carry  forward 
the  standard  of  the  Cross,  and  to  persevere  in  thb  glorious  conflict  nntil  the  whole  world 
confess  that  Jesus  is  Lord  of  all.  If  there  had  been  spared,  during  the  whole  of  those 
seventy-one  years,  a  devoted  friend  of  this  Society,  who  remembered  its  commencement, 
and  he  were  to  come  here  to-day,  it  would,  at  least,  be  a  satisfactory  thing  for  him  to 
find  that,  while  we  are  here  to-day  confessing  that  the  diflScnIties  of  our  work  are  no  less 
than  they  were  when  that  work  was  commenced,  and  that  the  claims  upon  the  resources  of 
the  Churches,  instead  of  being  diminished,  are  rather  augmented,  nevertheless  we  are  here, 
after  seventy-one  years'  trial,  with  unshrinking  loyalty  to  our  principles,  with  unabated  faith 
in  the  Gospel  which  we  have  to  preach,  with  zeal,  I  trust,  as  earnest,  and  fervent,  and  self- 
denying  as  ever,  and  with  a  confidence  in  the  ultimate  success  of  our  work  which  has  been 
gathering  strength  from  the  experience  of  every  one  of  the  seventy-one  years  which  has 
passed.  It  might  seem  even  that  gentlemen  standing  outside  of  our  ranks,  perhaps  having 
very  little  sympathy  either  with  our  work  or  with  the  principles  upon  which  that  work 
rests — ^phOosophical  thinkerF,  as  they  profess  to  be — might,  at  all  events,  recognise  in  our 
history,  in  our  progress,  in  our  present  position,  in  our  hold  upon  the  Churches  of  this 
country,  a  great  fact,  which  they,  at  least,  should  seek  to  understand  ;  and  they  might  be 
prepared  to  say,  **  Well,  these  men  are  greatly  mistaken;  we  do  not  believe  at  all  in  their 
expectations  or  in  their  principles  :  but,  at  all  events,  we  must  recognise  that  their  aim  is 
noble ;  we  must  confess  that  their  thought  is  a  grand  one ;  we  must  admit  that  their  faith 
must  be  very  firm ;  we  cannot  deny  that  they  have  done  some  service  to  humanity ;  and  if 
we  can't  go  with  them/ we  may,  at  least,  honour  them  for  the  principles  which  they  cherish, 
the  self-denial  which  they  manifest,  and  the  amount  of  good  which  they  do.''  But  that  is 
not  the  kind  of  spirit  in  which  we  are  met.  On  the  contrary,  these  gentlemen  seem  to 
say,  and  say  very  extensively  too,  **  There  you  are,  a  mere  set  of  Utopian  dreamers,  a 
few,  perhaps,  trading  upon  the  credulity  of  the  rest,  but  the  majority  mere  visionaries,  who 
deserve  nothing  but  contempt  for  diverting  the  energies  which  might  be  employed  in  some 
more  practical  operations,  and  giving  your  money,  and  your  labour,  and  your  talent  for 
that  which  can  yield  no  bread.''  Is  not  that  the  spirit  we  see  all  around  us  ?  It  appears 
to  me  that  Christian  Missions  are  to  be  the  field  on  which  the  great  battle  of  Christianity 
itself  is  to  be  fought  in  these  modern  times.  It  certainly  is  so  abroad.  We  are  there 
testing  the  comparative  power  of  the  simple  truth  of  God  on  the  one  side,  and  of  ecclesi- 
asticism,  traditionalism,  and  ritualism  upon  the  other.  In  many  of  our  Mission  Stations 
these  questions  are  cropping  up,  and  every  year  furnishes  fresh  proofs  that  they  are  destined 
to  present  themselves  on  a  more  extended  scale  ;  and  possibly  it  may  be  that  in  the  future 
there  will  be  even  greater  difficulties  than  in  the  past.  All  honour  to  the  Emperor  of  the 
French  for  the  enlightened  liberality  with  which  he  has  chosen  to  recognise  the  right  of

we  do  him  honour  we  cennot  be  insensible  to  the  fact  that  the  proceedings  to  which  atteotioa 
has  been  directed  in  the  Report  are  but  a  reTclation  of  the  intense  determination  of  Jetnitiam 
to  prosecute  its  labours  all  over  the  world,  and,  wherever  it  can,  to  devastate  the  fair  fields 
of  our  Protestant  Missions.  Then  it  would  appear  from  the  Report  that  there  is  another 
problem  which  has  to  be  tried  in  another  part  of  the  world.  In  India  the  questioii  whicb 
has  to  be  tested  is  this :  how  dsr  the  education  of  the  mere  intellect  without  the  recognition  of 
the  heart  at  all,  how  far  the  inculcation  of  knowledge  which  does  not  recognise  Qod  and 
His  truth,  will  be  sufficient  to  elevate  the  people  sunk  in  ignorance  and  debited  bj  idolatiy 
and  vice.  We  have  that  question  coming  up  before  us ;  and  we,  as  the  advocates  of 
Christian  Missions,  will  have  a  great  work  to  do  in  maintaining  our  own  principles,  and 
in  taking  care  that,  keeping  aloof  from  entanglements  and  complications  of  every 
character,  we  keep  close  to  our  one  object,  the  sending  of  the  Gospel  of  Jesus  Christ  onto 
the  Heathen.  But,  sir,  it  is  in  our  controversies  at  home,  I  think,  that  we  have  to  reoogniae 
this  fact  even  more  than  abroad.  We  have  seen  it  for  a  long  time.  There  are  certain 
writers  in  the  public  press,  for  example,  who  do  not,  perhaps,  feel  themselves  quite  justified 
in  having  their  fling  at  Christianitj  itself,  but  who  feel  always  especially  happy  if  they 
can  direct  a  sarcasm  against  Exeter  Hall  and  Christian  Missions.  A  few  years  ago,  when 
we  were  in  the  agonies  of  the  India  mutiny,  we  knew  a  gentleman  who  thought  that 
India  was  simply  to  be  an  appanage  which  wu  to  belong  to  Englishmen,  and  from  which 
they  were  to  gather  as  much  profit,  and  honour,  and  power  as  they  could ;  who  had  been 
accustomed,  probably,  to  that  notion,  which  has  been  too  prevalent  in  India,  of  treating 
its  native  population  as  mere  "  niggers,"  to  be  despised  and  oppressed ;  who  told  us,  when 
we  were  reading  of  all  the  horrors  of  that  mutiny,  that  it  wu  ''the  saints" — it  was  the 
Christian  Missionaries — who  had  done  it  all.  And  now,  sir,  we  have  another  dass  of  assailattts. 
There  is  a  learned  philosophical  society  whose  foundation  principle,  I  take  it,  is  that  «*  the 
proper  study  of  mankind  is  man,"  and  whose  members,  accepting  the  notion  that  man  is,  after 
all,  but  a  highly  educated  and  nobly  developed  monkey,  seem  to  be  engaged  in  the  very  scieatific, 
though  wearisome  search,  in  quest  of  the  missing  link  which  is  to  connect  these  two  diflfo^oit 
races  and  creatures  together.  These  gentlemen  have  chosen  lately  to  make  special  assaults 
upon  Christian  Missions.  I  am  not  very  much  astonished  at  it  It  really  can  be  no  matter 
of  surprise  that  political  economists,  noble  lords,  and  others,  who  are  fed  and  nonrisbed 
on  blue-books,  have  no  capacity  to  appreciate  the  intense  enthusiasm  and  earnest  faith 
which  lie  at  the  foundation  of  our  Missionary  enterprise.  Neither  is  it  wonderful  that 
gentlemen  who  are  so  fond  of  maintaining  that  the  negro  belongs  to  an  inferior  race  of 
beings  have  no  love  for  Missionaries,  who  luive  demonstrated  the  great  fact  that  the  negro 
has  an  intellect  to  think,  has  a  heart  to  feel,  hu  a  soul  to  be  saved,  and  that  the  Gospel  of 
Christ  can  lift  him  up  to  all  the  dignity  and  glory  of  the  noblest  manhood.  As  little  am  I  sur- 
prised that  travellers  who,  having  gone  up  and  down  through  foreign  courts  with  a  veiy 
considerable  notion  of  their  own  importance,  return  to  receive  grand  ovationa,  and 
who  would  seem  to  have  outlived  all  fidth  in  everything  except  their  own  greatness  and 
power,  do  not  particularly  like  the  simple-minded,  self-sacrificing  Missionary.  Least  of  all 
need  any  of  us  marvel  that  traders  of  the  class  to  which  our  venerated  friend  Mr.  Moflkt 
alludes  say  bitter  things  against  our  brethren.  But  surely  it  is  not  demanded  of  us  that  we 
answer  categorically  all  the  scandals  these  men  may  drcnlate.  If  our  Christian  Mteioas 
have  not  a  character  that  will  bear  such  assertions  and  attacks  as  those,  without  o«r  con- 
descending to  examine  and  refute  every  separate  accusation  which  is  put  forth,  then,  I  saf» 
the  sooner  they  cease  to  be  the  better ;  for  if  we  have  not  something  on  which  to  rest  m 
the  experience  of  the  years  that  are  passed,  then  we  have  laboured  to  very  little  purpose 
indeed.  But,  sir,  there  is  one  particular  point  on  which  these  gentlemen  iusist,  and  which 
lies  at  the  very  foundation  of  the  whole  controversy,  which  we  are  A^uently  too  ready  to 
concede  to  them ;  and  that  is,  that  while  they  are  perfectly  impartial  and  honourable  and 
disinterested  men,  who  are  simply  testifying  that  which  their  own  eyes  have  seen  and  their 
own  ears  have  heard.  Christian  Missionaries,  living  in  the  country,  knowing  the  people, 
spending  their  lives  for  their  instruction  and  their  conversion,  are  interested  parties,  to 
whom  no  credence,  therefore,  is  to  be  given.  Now  let  us  look  at  this  for  a  moment  or  two. 
Are  Missionaries  interested  parties  ?  I  should  be  glad  if  these  gentlemen  would  condesceod 
to  particulars,  and  would  tell  us  in  what  the  interest  consists.  If  they  could  point  to  sonae 
Christian  Missionaries  who  had  returned  home  with  immense  fortunes  which  they  had 
amassed  as  the  reward  of  Missionary  toil ;  if  they  could  tell  us  that  our  brethren  were 
living  upon  the  fat  of  the  land,  in  the  enjoyment  of  all  possible  luxury  and  ease,  with 
magnificent  incomes  wrung  out  of  the  earnings  of  the  people  of  this  country ;  if  they  coold 
tell  us  that  there  are  great  temptations,  of  this  sort  held  ou^.^^^^yj  brethren,  and,  therefore.

that  they  were  indeed  concerned  to  mtintain  a  society  which  Uyished  snch  munificent 
rewards  on  them,~then  I  should  certainly  lay  that  they  were  *'  interested  parties."  But 
how  different  are  the  facts  of  the  case  1  Interested,  sir  1  What  interest  has  the  venerable 
Robert  Moffat  had-^a  man  who,  with  that  wonderful  power  of  intellect,  that  mar- 
Tellous  tact,  that  untiring  industry,  that  skill  in  touching  the  deepest  emotions  and 
sympathies  of  the  human  heart,  which  he  possesses,  might  have  taken  a  position 
second  to  none  in  this  country,  but  has  worn  out  his  fifty  years  in  association  with 
undvilized  men,  lifting  them  up  to  the  dignity  of  their  humanity  and  their  Christianity  ? 
I  say,  look  at  that  venerable  man,  whose  hairs  have  groim  white  in  the  service  of  his  God, 
and  tell  me  where  the  interest  is»  tell  me  why  his  testimony  is  to  be  rqected,  while 
the  words  of  some  passing  traveller  are  to  be  accepted  as  true.  I  have  taken  one  specimen, 
because  our  Missionary  roll  does  not  boast  a  more  illustrious  name ;  but  it  would  have 
been  possible,  if  time  permitted]  at  all,  to  multiply  such  examples.  Interest,  sir  1  what 
interest  ?  Interest  in  the  privations,  and  afiUctions,  and  sufferings,  and  toils  that  attend  the 
Missionary's  life ;  interest  in  that  exposure  to  disease  which  hu  wrought  so  frightfully,  as 
yon  have  heard  from  the  Report,  in  the  case  of  some  of  the  youngest  members  of  our  Mis- 
sionary army;  interest  in  the  exposure  to  martyrdom,  like  our  honoured  and  beloved 
broth^  Williams,  and  others  like  him.  Interest,  sir  I  Was  there  interest  in  such  a  case 
at  Holloway  Helmore  settling  down  and  doing  a  grand  and  noble  work  among  untutored 
savagM,  and  then  at  the  call  of  duty  leaving  the  people  whom  he  had  civilized  and  blessed, 
to  press  onward  to  regions  yet  more  remote,  in  order  that  he  might  carry  on  there  the 
same  labour  of  love,  and,  finally,  laying  down  his  life  and  the  life  of  his  family  in  the 
service  of  his  Master  ?  Interest,  indeed,  sir !  Tea,  there  is  one  interest :  they  have 
only  one.  Their  conduct  is  inexplicable  on  any  principle  but  this:  that  they  have 
£uth  in  the  Gospel,  faith  in  the  Lord  whom  they  serve,  faith  in  the  power  of  that 
Gospel  to  regenerate  man,  and  that  they  look  forward  with  confidence  to  redeemed 
souls,  as  tbeir  hope^  and  their  joy,  and  their  property.  Now,  sir,  I  must  say,  however,  that 
I  do  think  these  gentlemen  are  extremely  wise  in  their  generation.  I  quite  admire  the 
tact  that  they  show  in  selecting  Christian  Missions  for  their  ridicule.  They  appeal  at  once 
to  some  of  the  worst  and  to  some  of  the  higbest  feelings  of  our  nature.  They  appeal  to  that 
kind  of  jealous  suspicion  which,  perhaps,  occasionally  springs  up  in  our  minds  in  relation 
to  that  which  we  do  not  see— the  readiness  with  which  a  certain  class  of  people  are  always 
disposed  to  bail  the  discovery  of  some  new  ''  mare's  nest,"  no  matter  where  it  is ;  and  if  it 
be  at  a  sufficient  distance  removed,  all  the  better.  But,  on  the  other  hand,  they  address 
themselves  also  to  some  of  our  best  feellugs  too.  They  are  specially  distinguished,  themselves, 
for  their  zeal  in  all  philanthropic  efforts  for  the  evangelizaition  and  conversion  of  our  home 
population ;  they  arc  the  heads  of  all  movements  of  that  character;  and  therefore  thej 
reproach  us  because,  while  working  for  the  Heathen,  we  are  doing  nothing  for  our  own 
brethren  at  home.  Apparently,  they  understand — at  least,  I  think  we  understand,  and  I 
should  think  they  do  too— that,  if  they  can  abate  the  Missionary  spirit  and  the  Missionary 
zeal  of  our  Churches,  they  have  done  very  much  to  weaken  the  power  of  our  Christianity 
itself.  If  we  look  back  to  the  past  history  of  the  Church,  we  shall  find  that  the  times 
when  the  Missionary  spirit  has  flagged,  when,  in  truth,  there  has  been  no  Missionary 
spirit  at  all,  have  always  been  times  when  false  doctrine  has  prevailsd,  when  there 
haa  been  corruption,  weakness,  powerlessness  for  the  accomplishment  of  any  great 
work  ;  and,  therefore,  if  these  gentlemen  ooul.i  really  persuade  us  to  renounce  our 
Christian  Missions,  or  could  materially  diminish  our  attachment  to  them,  they  would 
have  done  not  a  little  towards  awakening  the  power  of  our  Christian  faith  and  chilling  the 
zeal  of  our  Christian  communities.  Our  Missionary  Societies,  be  assured,  are  essential  to 
the  maintenance  of  piety  at  home,  of  deep-toned,  earnest  faith,  and  of  persevering  prayer, 
juat  as  much  as  they  are  necessary  for  the  carrying  on  of  the  work  of  the  Gospel  abroad. 
We  do  not  pretend  to  be  here  to-day  boasting  of  perfect  success,  but  we  are  not  going  to 
confess  that  there  is  a  failure.  We  must  not  forget  that  we  have  not  to  look  only  to  the 
work  that  has  been  actually  accomplished.  We  are  too  fond  at  times  of  measuring  our 
success  by  the  actual  visible  and  tangible  results  on  which  we  are  able  to  fix.  We  say  we 
have  so  many  Churches  in  one  part  of  the  world,  we  have  gathered  in  so  many  converts, 
we  have  received  such  an  amount  of  income,  and  on  all  that  we  congratulate  ouiseives. 
Quite  right  that  we  should,  sir !  The  Christian  Churches  that  have  been  founded  by  our 
Miasiooary  brethren  have  stood  every  test  that  could  be  applied  to  Christian  principles. 
They  have  been  tried  by  seductive  appeals  to  their  Christian  loyalty  from  Popish  emissaries, 
and  they  have  resisted  them.  They  have  been  tried  by  appeals  to  tbeir  liberality  from  us, 
aod  they  have  nobly  responded,  and  generously  they  have  given  the  proof  that  the  power 
of  the  Gospel  was  working  in  their  hearts.    Their  constancy  has  been  nrove<Un^bA  severest

Utile  conception,  but  which  will,  by-and-by.  reveal  their  power  to  our  astonishment  and 
our  gratitude  ?  I  hare  sometimes  wandered  along  the  shores  of  one  of  our  western  wateriag- 
places,  where  the  ocean  is  rapidly  encroaching  upon  the  land,  and  ftom,  year  to  year  have 
found  great  pieces  of  cKff,  alongside  of  which  I  had  wdked  twelve  months  befare,  entirely 
detached  from  the  land  and  swallowed  up  by  the  advancing  tide.  If  yon  were  to  ask 
any  careless  passer-by  how  that  had  been  done,  he  would,  perhaps,  tdl  yon  that  one  nqjht 
in  the  previous  winter  there  had  been  a  tenible  atorm,  that  the  strong  wind  and  the  spring-

night  this  gteat  piece  of  cliff  bad  been  detached,  and  that  which  before  belonged  to  idnt 
tand  had  been  given  over  henceforth  to  the  dominion  of  the  sea.  To  a  certain  extent  that 
mu  true,  but  not  altogether  true.  If  any  one  had  watched,  he  might  have  seen  that,  tide 
by  tide,  the  waters  were  rotting  up,  making  a  hole  here,  wearing  away  a  piece  of  the 
<ittt  there,  undermining  the  fonndation^^secsetly,  steadily,  constantly  doing  their  wor^-* 
and  that  this  last  operation  was  but  the  cUmax  and  culmination  of  the  whole,  and  that  thus 
suddenly,  as  it  seemed,  at  last  one  great  stroke  had  perfected  that  which  had  been  doing  by 
little  and  little  during  the  years  that  had  preceded.  Now,  sir,  is  not  that  tiie  vrmy  hi 
which  great  moral  revolutions  go  on  ?  Are  not  thoughts  deposited  in  individual  hearts  as 
seeds,  to  take  lodgment  there  r  Do  not  convictions  work  just  where  we  least  anticipate 
them  ?  and  then  suddenly  the  fruit  springs  up  fttnn  the  seed  which  has  been  scattered,  and 
we  nee  with  gratitude  to  God  the  work  which  we  have  been  permitted  to  accomplish.  And 
surely,  of  all  others,  we  who  live  in  this  age  ought  to  lay  that  lesson  to  heart,  and  have 
faith  in  the  gradual  but  certain  triumph  of  right  principles.  This  Report  haa  made  two 
allusions,  and  two  very  important  allusions  too,  to  the  abolition  of  slarery  throughont  our 
British  dominions.  Sixty  years  ago  we  not  only  held  slaves,  but  we  had  to  tolerate  aH  the 
horrors  of  the  slave-trade.  I  heard  that  sixty  years  ago  a  gentleman  went  to  preach  in  tbe 
town  of  Liverpool,  and  there  for  the  first  time  saw  a  riave-ship.  He  was  so  impresaed  wHh 
its  horrors  that,  when  he  stood  up  to  preach  the  next  day,  the  first  petition  that  he  ofibed 
in  his  prayer  was,  **  Lord,  have  mercy  upon  the  men  who  are  trading  in  the  blood  and  flesh 
of  their  f^ow-men  ;'*  and  before  that  gentleman's  prayer  was  over  ahnost  every  mam  in  the 
|dace  of  worship  had  left.  Such  was  the  state  of  feding  then.  We  know  how  the  preteal 
at^e  of  opinion  on  the  subject  was  brought  about.  We  know  how  Wilberforee,  and  Clark- 
son,  and  Macaolay  toiled.  We  know  how  long  the  day  seemed  in  breaking — ^how  alow  the 
process  was.  We  know  how  our  own  Missionary,  Smith,  was  martyred  becanae  of  his 
devotion  to  this  cause.  We  know  how  long  the  Churches  of  Britain  had  to  exerclae  faitfa. 
But  then  at  last  the  end  came;  and,  despite  all  the  power  by  wtiich  it  was  snatafaied. 
:^lavei^  perished.  And  so  it  has  been  across  the  Atlantic  too.  F6ur  years  ago  that 
great  tree  of  slavery  reared  its  head,  and  struck  its  roots  deep  into  the  earth,  and  those  who 
believed  in  it  boasted  that  it  could  never  be  destroyed.  Under  its  spreadrog  brandiea  men 
of  all  classes  and  professions  and  ranks,  not  excepting  ministers  <^  Christianity  theaoaelvcs, 
found  then*  shelter.  Politicians  commended  it;  philosophers  spectdated  about  it;  divines 
attempted  to  justify  it ;  and  the  whole  public  opinion  of  America  said,  "  It  shall  atand  Ibr 
ever : "  but  in  that  very  hour  the  saying  went  forth,  the  commission  was  given,  the  axe 
was  laid  to  the  root  of  the  tree :  it  has  ftdlen,  and  great  is  the  fall  of  it.  Is  not  tSiat  just 
one  of  these  pregnant  facts  in  tbe  history  of  the  world  which  encourage  us  to  fsith  ?  for, 
though  our  great  principles  also  may  have  (heir  times  of  difficulty  and  of  trial,  and  the  great 
systems  of  idolatry  against  which  we  are  contendhig  may  seem  to  be  so  onmipotent  that 
they  can  never  be  overthrown,  the  deep  triith  which  we  have,  and  the  promisea  of  God 
which  are  given  to  us,  convey  to  us  the  certain  assurance  that  the  end  will  come,  and  that 
the  word  of  our  Lord  will  be  fulfilled,  and  that  Jesus  will  reign  from  shore  to  shore,  and 
from  the  river  to  the  ends  of  the  earth.  Now,  sh",  one  or  two  words,  before  I  sit  down, 
of  a  more  directly  practical  character,  in  relation  to  one  part  of  this  Resolntioa, 
which  pledges  the  Churches,  as  represented  here,  to  greater  efforts  on  behalf  of  this  Society. 
Is  that  to  be  a  mere  formal  Resolution,  for  which  you  are  to  hold  up  your  hands,  wii 
which  you  are  to  be  quite  content,  but  which  you  are  ta  go  away  from  this  place  ani 
straightway  forget  altogether  ?  We  have  spoken — and,  I  think,  we  have  spoken  qate 
rightly — with  gratitude  and  pleasure  of  the  increase  in  t^  j^f^g  ^JiWcf^S^^  **"*  3^"^*

but,  I  think,  if  we  t«ke  tb«  funds  of  oar  Society  to-day,  and  if  we  compare  them  with  what 
we  were  twenty  years  ago,  inslead  of  having  reason  for  congratulation,  we  shall  have  reason 
to  humble  ourselves  before  God,  because  our  zeal  and  liberidity  have  not  kept  pace  with  tb». 
increue  of  our  resources  as  Christian  Churches.  As  to  the  increase  of  the  wealth  of  this  country 
during  those  twenty  years  there  can  be  no  question.  Look  at  the  fact  which  the  Chancellor  of 
the  Exchequer  stated  the  other  evening  in  respect  to  the  income-tax,  which  is,  perhaps,  a 
tolerably  good  teat  of  the  prosperity  and  progress  of  the  country — that  whereas  a  penny  in 
the  pound  on  incomes  a  few  years  ago  raised  only  a  million,  or  hardly  a  million,  of  money, 
is  now  raises  a  million  and  a  quarter,  or  from  that  to  one  million  three  hundred  thousand 
pounds.  That  is  of  itself  sufficient  to  prove  the  great  increase  in  the  wealth  of  our  country; 
and  I  am  sure,  sir,  that  the  Churches  have  ahared  in  that  increase.  You  do  not  think  that 
Christian  men,  who  have  been  carrying  on  their  business  on  principles  of  Christian  integrity, 
have  not  shsred  in  the  general  prosperity  of  the  country  ?  Tou  cannot  go  into  the  homes 
of  our  people  without  seeing  that  that  is  so.  Now,  sir,  what  are  we  doing  to  show  onr 
gratitude  to  God  for  what  He  has  done  for  us  ?  I  grant  you,  and  it  is  something  to  which 
we  can  point  with  pleasure,  that  we  have  been  doing  very  much  for  the  evangelization  of 
our  home  population.  We  have  been  building  chapels,  and  calling  into  existence  various 
agencies  for  the  purpose  of  carrying  on  the  work  at  home.  But  the  same  spirit  which 
teaches  us  to  do  the  one  should  constrain  us  not  to  leave  the  other  undone ;  and  if  we  are 
to  be  true  to  the  principles  which  we  profees,  we  must  care  not  only  for  those  lying  at  our 
own  doors,  but  we  must  seek  the  salvation  also  of  those  who  at  the  uttermost  parts  of  the 
earth  are  in  the  gross  darkness  of  Heathenism.  The  Report  has  presented  to  us  a  very 
vivid  picture  of  what  Paganism  in  India  is,  even  in  the  present  position  of  that  great 
country.  The  need  for  Mission  work  is  just  as  great  as  it  was,  and  our  difficulties  are 
not  the  less ;  but  our  resources  are  greater  than  they  were.  May  God  give  us  grace,  and 
industry,  and  zeal,  to  do  more  than  we  have  ever  done  before.  The  banner  of  the  Cross  ia 
handed  down  to  us  from  the  past  to  this  day,  in  order  that  we  may  prove  our  loyalty  to  tha 
cause  of  the  Redeemer,  and  prove  ourselves  "  good  soldiers  of  Jesus  Christ.''  I  remember 
that,  at  the  burial  of  Cavaillac,  one  of  the  most  interesting  objects  carried  on  that  day  was  a 
little  bit  of  silk— for  it  was  no  asore  than  that-"«n  old  standard,  full  of  holes,  rididled  «t 
almost  every  point.  It  was  hardly  worth  picking  up  from  the  street,  if  it  had  lain  there, 
and  yet  it  was  the  object  rovnd  which  interest  andaJfeotion  ooncentrated,  which  wasbecaase 
it  was  the  time-worn  banner  which  had  waved  ever  many  a  battle-field,  which  was  associated 
-with  many  a  desperate  struggle,  and  whiah  was  wreathed  vrith  the  laursls  of  many  a  victory. 
We  have  a  banner  of  that  sort — the  old  banner  of  the  Cross,  unsullied,  unstained,  undimmed 
— which  has  come  down  to  us  from  apestles,  and  martyrs,  and  missionaries,  and  confessors 
of  the  past.  Who  can  tell  of  all  the  vieteries  which  have  been  won  under  it  ?  Who  can 
recount  all  the  glory  with  which  tha  I«Qrd  has  erowned  it  ?  It  is  given  to  us  that  we  may 
be  true  to  it,  that  we  may  unfurl  it  ia  all  its  parity  and  simplicity,  that  we  may  preach  the 
old  Gospel,  that  we  may  trust  in  the  same  great  Spirit  who  alone  has  made  tha  soldiers  of 
the  Cross  mighty.  So  shall  we  do  our  work ;  and  so  shall  we  hasten,  by  »WDk  power  a* 
God  gives  us,  that  blessed  day  for  which  *'  the  whole  creation  is  waiting  and  travailing 
together  in  bondage  until  now" — 

'*  When  the  glad  slave  shall  at  his  feet  lay  down 
His  broken  chain,  the  tyrant  lord  his  crown. 
The  priest  hit  book,  the  oonqneror  his  wreath, 
And,  from  the  lips  of  truth,  oae  miffhty  breath 
Shall,  like  a  whirlwind,  scatter  to  tm  breeae 
The  hideous  pile  of  human  mockeries, 
Then  shall  the  reign,  of  Heaven  commence  on  earth. 
And,  waking  fVc»b.  as  fron  a  seeond  birth, 
Man,  in  the  ouashine  of  that  world's  new  spring. 
Shall  walk  transparent,  like  some  holy  thing. 
And  gladdened  earth,  throughont  its  wide  expanse,

The  Rev.  Richard  Roberts  : — I  have  unfeigned  pleasure,  sir,  in  being  associated  with 
you  and  the  Christian  friends  in  the  celebration  of  this  Missionary  festivity.  I  congratulate 
the  Society  on  having  so  very  comprehensive  and  so  very  cheering  and  encouraging  a 
Heport  to  present  to  the  public  this  year.  I  do  not  know  how  it  may  be  with  you,  sir,  but 
I  find,  as  a  rule,  in  the  denomination  to  which  I  belong,  that  our  Missionary  literature  is 
not  so  much  sought  for  as  I  should  like.  I  freouently  find  our  Missionary  reports  and  our 
3ii8sionary  periodicals  placed  in  some  dark  and  sometimes  dusty  corner  of  the  habitation, 
indicating  that  they  are  scarcely  ever  looked  at  or  scanned.    Our  people  are  apt  to  look  at 


180  MISSIONARY   3fAGAZINE 

this  Missionary  literature  as  containing  nothing  more  than  some  dry  statistics.   But,  sympa- 
thizing with  Jesas  Christ  in  His  high  and  holy  purpose,  i  lore  to  read  these  documenta, 
because  they  contain  records  of  the  triumphs  of  Christ,  and  they  furnish  me  with  abundant 
proofs  that  we  are  not  labouring  in  vain,  that  we  are  not  praying  in  vain,  and  not  giving 
our  money  in  vain  to  the  sustenance  of  these  societies.     Our  operations  are  based,  I  believe, 
on  these  two  great  principles :  that  the  world  is  in  need  of  something,  and  that  the  Gospel 
is  the  only  thing  that  is  adapted  to  meet  that  want.    We  know  that  these  fundamentab 
have  been  assailed.     Reference  has  been  made  already  to  these  assaults ;  and  the  great 
question  at  issue  is  this :  is  Christianity  true  ?  or  is  it  not  ?    Is  it  Divine  ?  or  is  it  simply  a 
human  institution  ?    If,  as  those  gentlemen  of  that  strangely  named  society — the  Anthro- 
pological Society — say,  Heathenism  is  better  for  the  African  than  Christianity,  the  great 
question  is,  is  Mahometanism  true  ?  or  is  it  false  ?    If  it  be  true,  then,  certainly,  not  only 
the  Kaffirs,  but  ourselves,  ought  to  embrace  it.  If  it  be  fklse,  we  ought  to  reject  it,  and  th^ 
ought  to  reject  it.    And  then  there  is  this  other  issue :  if  Mahometanism  be  true,  then 
Christianity  is  false.   But  I  find  that  Christianity  is  adapted  to  my  wants,  and  I  onderstaod 
that  one  human  heart  is  but  a  type  of  other  hearts.    When  God  illumined  my  own  mind  I 
discovered  my  own  sins.    The  Spirit  of  God  convinced  me  not  exactly  of  any  particular 
outward  sin,  nor  of  actual  sin,  but  of  sinfulness.    That  seems  to  be  the  kind  of  convictiott 
which  the  Holy  Spirit  produces;  a  conviction  of  inward  sin,  of  total  sinfulness.     When  I 
was  so  convinced  I  discovered  in  my  own  heart  the  essence  of  all  evil.    I  found  in  my 
nature  evil  forces  capable  of  perpetrating  the  vilest  crimes  of  which  man  is  capable.    Now 
with  this  essence  of  sin,  this  germ  of  evil,  in  my  nature,  I  repaired  to  Christianity,  and 
found  it  was  adapted  to  my  wants.    It  satisfied  all  my  cravings,  and  met  all  my  yearnings ; 
so  that  there  was  not  a  desire  that  I  could  cherish  as  the  child  of  immortality  but  what  I 
found  provided  for  in  the  Gospel ;  and  ever  since  that  moment  I  have  never  iiad  the 
alightest  doubt  on  my  mind  that  this  religion  is  adapted  to  all  men— to  the  Kaffir,  the 
Chinaman,  and  the  Feejeean — to  all  men,  inasmuch  as  I  take  my  own  heart  to  bb  but  a 
type  of  all  other  hearts.    Besides,  Christianity  is  revealed  to  us  in  the  Bible  as  a  religion 
adapted  to  all  men.    God  is  no  respecter  of  persons.    Have  we,  then,  been  deceived  for 
all  these  years  ?     Have  we  had  this  wonderful  new  light  shed  on  Missionary  labours  by 
this  celebrated  Captain  Burton,  who  tells  us  that  your  Missionary  labours  and  ours  also 
have  been  practically  an  entire  failure  ?    What !  have  we  been  listening  this  morning  to  a 
tissue  of  mere  falsehoods  from  the  lips  of  Dr.  Tidman  ?     Have  our  Missionary  reports  for 
the  last  fifty  or  a  hundred  years  contained  nothing  but  untruths  ?     Have  we  British  people 
been  gulled  and  deceived  by  the  statements  of  those  Missionaries  who  have  toiled  for  years 
and  sacrificed  their  lives  for  this,  and  who,  when  they  have  written  to  us,  or  returned 
home  to  tell  us  that  grace  has  triumphed,  and  that  souls  have  been  saved,  hearts  lifted  up 
from  degradation  and  ruin  into  the  heighfa  of  acceptance  and  peace  ?    Are  all  these  things 
at  this  day  to  be  put  down  as  an  entire  falsehood  ?  and  have  we  been  deceived  ?     No,  air ; 
we  cling  to  the  old  Gospel  still,  and  believe  it  to  be  the  power  of  God  unto  salvation  to 
every  one  that  belie vetb.    I  hold  it,  sir,  that  those  gentlemen  who  have  pronounced  these 
opinions  as  to  the  failure  of  Missionary  enterprise  are  not  competent  judges.    A  man  that 
will  tell  you,  as  CapUin  Burton  has  done  openly,  that  Mahometanism  is  better  for  tht 
Kaffir  than  Christianity,  that  the  African  was  a  better  man  before  he  knew  Christianity 
and  the  Bible  than  he  is  now,  having  had  it  and  having  professed  to  embrace  it — I  say 
such  a  man,  who  will  openly  advocate  polygamy  as  a  right  and  necessary  thing  in  Africa, 
is  not  competent  to  judge  on  spiritual  matteis.    The  whole  issue  of  the  controversy  is  here 
-—"The  natural  man  understandeth  not  the  things  of  the  Spirit  of  God;*'  and  he  is  lacking 
in  that  grand  spiritual  faculty,  spiritual  diBcemment,  and  in   that   sense  he  is   blind 
and  incompetent  to  pronounce  an  opinion.    Well,  sir,  this  is  by  no  meana  a   new 
attack   upon    our    Missions.     A    similar  attack  was  made  by  some  traveller,  taking 
a  superficial  view  of  things,  calling  himself  Colonel  Fitz Clarence,  who  took  a  tour  through 
India,  and  who,  when  he  came  home,  wrote  a  book,  about  the  year  1816,  and  told  us  that 
Missions  were  an  entire  failure  in  India ;  that  not  a  single  Brahmin,  not  a  single  man  of 
high  caste,  had  been  converted  through  the  instrumentality  of  Missions.     He  aaid  there 
were  a  few  outcasts  who  identified  themselves  with  the  Missionary  and  his  cause — for  what 
reason  ?    It  was  easily  accounted  for :  simply  that  they  might  have  their  stomachs  filled 
vrith  rice.    That  was  his  own  explanation.  The  thoughtful  John  Foster  took  the  suliject  op 
in  that  day,  and  wrote  a  review  of  that  book  and  utterly  confuted  it.    The  records  of  yonr 
Missionary  Report  to-day  give  the  lie  to  these  insinuations.    Why,  sir,  are  we  to  be  toU 
that  those  150  communicants  of  whom  Dr.  Tidman  read  this  morning,  in  Africa,  are 
deceivers  and  hypocrites,  and  know  nothing  of  the  renewing  power  of  the  grace  of  Christ? 
We  are  prepared  to  present  thousands  and  tens  of  thousands  of  men  on  our  Misrion  Statioas 


FOR  JUNE,  1865.  181 

throughout  the  world  to  bear  testimony  to  the  great  troth  that  Christianity  has  been  the 
power  of  God  unto  their  salvation.    I  think  onr  converts  woald  a  little  bit  confute  Captain 
Burton  and  his  companions,  and  the  Anthropological  Society  too,  if  we  had  them  here.     I 
was  on  the  coast  the  other  day,  and  a  rough,  stalwart  coast-guard  was  introduced  tome  as  a 
recent  convert.  In  conversation  he  told  me  that  he  had  been  assailed  by  one  of  his  old  infidel 
companions,  an  intelligent  and  thoughtful  man ;  and  this  infidel  endeavoured  to  shake  bis 
faith  in  religion.    He  had  not  read  much,  for  he  had  led  a  debased  life,  and  he  was  not 
able  to  argue  the  question  ;  so,  instead  of  attempting  to  argue,  he  said,  "  J^[y  dear  friend, 
I  cannot  answer  your  infidel  objections  ;  1  am  not  a  learned  man;  but  I  want  to  ask  you 
just  one  question  :  have  you  got  Christ?    Because,''  he  said,  "if  you  have  not,  I  have, 
and  I  have  the  advantage  over  you.''     I  think,  if  we  could  bring  some  of  our  converted 
Kaffirs  and  Hottentots  over  to  meet  this  Captain  Burton,  they  would  put  to  him  the  same 
question  :  "  Have  you  got  Christ  ?  for,  if  not,  we  have  the  advantage  over  you."    We  have 
the  evidence  of  our  own  consciousness :  we  know,  because  we  feel.    What  we  testify  to 
others  we  know  to  be  true — not  simply  because  it  is  based  on  argument,  but  because  it  is 
based  on  our  own  experience.    We  have  met  with  success.    Your  Report,  i  think,  said 
something  that  was  rather  a  little  in  the  discouraging  line  about  India ;  that  is,  that  we 
have  not  realized  there  the  success  which  we  could  have  desired.    Perhaps  not.    There  are 
great  difficulties  in  the  way  of  the  conversion  of  India.  The  sacrifices  that  have  to  be  made  there 
when  a  conversion  takes  place  are  very  great.  You  must  remember,  that  when  a  high  caste  em- 
braces Christianity,  he  forfeits  all  earthly  good ;  he  is  severed  from  all  his  earthly  relationships ; 
he  has  to  give  up  all  his  worldly  prospects,  and  is  thenceforth  treated  as  an  outcast,  a  mere 
outcast,  and  ha;)  frequently  to  seek  refuge  with  the  Missionary,  because  his  own  family 
will  not  recognise  him.    Of  course  a  youth  or  a  man  before  he  embraces  Christianity,  under 
these  circumstances,  will  have  to  count  the  cost ;  but  I  find  that,  as  a  rale,  these  Hindoo 
converts  are  more  stable  and  steadfast  than  those  drawn  over  to  Christianity  more  easily  ; 
and  one  of  our  own  Missionaries  told  us  the  other  day  that,  after  having  laboured  for  eleven 
years  in  India,  he  never  knew  one  to  fall  away,  or  to  lapse  into  Heathenism.    Wtll,  sir,  our 
work  in  India  has  been  a  work  of  preparation  mostly.    We  can  rejoice  in  converts ;  we  can 
rejoice  in  the  happy  and  peaceful  death  of  many  in  that  land  who  have  died  trusting  in  the 
Saviour  that  you  have  preached  unto  them;  but  onr  work  has  been  a  work  of  preparation. 
I  have  seen  the  men  working  in  the  slate-quarries  in  Wales.   A  man  has  been  suspended  by 
a  rope  attached  to  some  pole  or  tree  at  the  top  of  the  hill,  and,  with  his  foot  on  a  ledge  of 
rock,  he  has  remained  there  boring  a  hole,  spending  hours,  and  sometimes  an  entire  day,  in 
boring  a  hole  of  sufficient  depth,  and  just  a  few  inches  in  circumference  ;  and  then,  after 
spending  so  much  time  in  this,  I  have  seen  him  fill  the  hole  vrith  bUck  dust.    If  1  had  ivot 
known  what  it  was,  and  what  power  there  was  lodged  in  it,  I  should  have  said,  "  What  a 
fool  the  man  is  to  waste  all  this  time  in  boring  a  bole  and  then  filling  it  up  again  !"    But  I 
know  that  that  black  dust  is  powder,  and  wields  a  terrible  force  when  touched  by  fire. 
The   man  has    only  to  attach  the  fusee  to  the  powder,  then  strike  a  match,  and, 
applying  it  to  the  fusee,  set  it  blazing.    In  the  meantime  he  climbs  the  rope,  and 
seeks  refuge  in    the  distance.    He  has  no   sooner  reached   his   hiding-place  than   the 
fire    comes  in  contact    with    the    powder,   and   then  there   is   a  mighty  blast,  which 
rends   the   solid   rock  asunder.    That  is  just   what  the  Missionaries  have  been  doing 
in  India.    They  have  been  boring  a  hole  in  the  rock  of  Heathendom ;  they  have  been  filling 
that  hole,  thank  God,  with  the  powder  of  Divine  truth— for,  by  the  help  of  the  Bible  Society, 
troth,  Divine,  saving  truth,  is  scattered  abroad  all  over  India — and  jou  will  find  the  train 
of  powder  tolerably  complete.     It  is  there  in  fragments  of  the  Scriptures  and  religious  books ; 
you  will  find  it  scattered  all  over  that  vast  land  ;  and  there  is  only  one  thing  more  we  want: 
Tve  want  the  fire  from  heaven  to  come  and  touch  the  powder,  and  then  there  will  be  a 
mighty  blast  in  the  rock  of  Heathendom,  and  polished  stones  shall  be  gathered  to  adorn  the 
temple  of  our  Lord.  When  our  Missionaries  first  went  abroad  to  India  there  was  a  great  deal  of 
sneering  and  pooh-poohing,  just  as  there  is  in  this  day  with  the  Anthropological  Society ; 
but,  after  all,  there  is  no  argument  in  a  gibe,  and  there  is  no  logic  in  a  sneer.     Well,  these 
good  people,  the  British  authorities  in  India,  said  to  the  Missionaries,  "  You  have  come  on 
a  Utopian  enterprise.     It  is  useless  to  make  an  attack  on  this  gigantic  system  of  supersti- 
tlon  in  India :  it  is  too  deeply  rooted  in  the  hearts  of  the  people.    We  should  advise  yon 
to  take  the  first  vessel  you  can,  and  sail  back,  and  give  it  up."    "  Oh,"  said  the  young 
AI  issionaries,  "  we  do  not  expect  to  do  it  in  our  own  strength,  but  we  expect  God  to  do  it." 
•  •  Oh,"  they  said,  "  we  never  thought  of  that."     No,  of  course,  they  never  thought  of  that, 
biat  our  Missionaries  took  good  care  to  think  about  it  before  they  left  home.    They  went 
vFith  the  conviction,  "  The  Lord  of  hosts  is  with  us  ;  the  God  of  Jacob  is  our  refuge  ;" 
and  they  took  their  stand  in  the  front  of  the  mountain  of  idolatry,  and  though  they  were

diicoonged  by  Brittsh  anthorHlet,  and  had  to  encounter  the  fierce  opposition  of  the  naiiTes, 
yet  they  stood  ftrm,  and  with  cheek  unblanehed  and  unquivering  lip  they  stood  there»  and 
they  heard  a  Toice  from  heaven  saying  to  them,  "  If  ye  have  faith  small  as  the  grain  of 
mustard  seed,  ye  shall  say  to  this  mountain,  De  thou  removed,  and  be  thou  cast  into  the 
sea,  it  shall  be  done/'  Then  there  came  boiling  sarcasm  from  opponents.  A  man  who 
had  attached  to  his  name  the  title  of  "  Reverend  '* — the  Rev.  Sydney  Smith — poured 
sarcasm  upon  the  devoted  men  in  India ;  but  they  heeded  it  not,  for  they  heard  the  voice 
again,  and  they  toiled  on,  knowing  that  it  was  a  voice  from  heaven ;  and  they  dug  hard  in 
order  to  get  a  lodgment  for  the  lever  of  Divine  truth  at  the  very  base  of  that  mighty  mau 
of  snperslition,  and,  thank  God,  they  have  found  a  lodgment  there  for  that  lever ;  and  we 
ask  soeerers  and  scoffers,  and  the  Anthropological  Society,  and  ereryliody  else  who  chooses 
to  oppose  us,  whether,  though  the  mountain  has  not  yet  been  abolished,  there  has  not  been 
a  stirring  of  the  entire  mass,  a  shaking  of  the  whole  system.  Yes,  sir ;  and  we  believe 
that  God,  faithful  to  His  promise,  will  place  His  own  almighty  hand  upon  the  lever,  and 
fulfil  Hit  promise  by  lifting  up  that  mighty  mass  from  its  base,  and  tossing  it  into  the  sea 
of  oblivion  for  ever  and  for  ever.  There  is  now  a  growing  distrust  in  the  gods  of  India,  a 
growing  distrust  in  the  systems  of  Hindooism,  Buddhism,  and  Brahminism.  You  will  find 
their  gods  are  not  so  honoured  or  truited,  nor  have  they  so  many  worshippers  as  they  for- 
merly had.  That  is  confirmed  by  our  own  Missionary  reports,  year  by  year.  The  fact  ir, 
there  is  a  record  in  the  Shsster,  the  sacred  book  of  the  Hindoos,  which  thev  beliere  as  well 
as  we  do  the  Bible,  that  when  the  tenth  incarnation  of  Vishnu  comes  their  religion  will 
have  done  its  work,  and  must  give  way  to  another.  Now,  the  ninth  has  come,  and  they 
tell  you  they  are  expecting  the  tenth  yearly ;  nay,  constantly ;  and  then,  when  the  tenth 
incarnation  eomes,  the  work  will  be  done.  The  Missionaries  will  often  ply  the  priests  with 
this  question :  '*  What  do  yon  think  is  the  religion  that  will  be  substituted  for  yours?" 
They  are  wary,  and  unwilling  to  give  a  reply,  but  on  more  than  one  occasion  the  answer 
has  been  extorted,  "  Well,  if  we  must  tell  you,  we  think  it  will  be  the  religion  of  BrtUin — 
it  will  be  your  Christianity."  Now,  sir,  here  is  a  conviction  lodged  in  the  Indian  mind, 
not  by  your  Missionaries,  not  by  yonr  Bibles,  not  by  the  books  you  have  circulated  there, 
but  a  conviction  lodged  by  their  own  sacred  books,  that  their  religion  is  only  temporary, 
and  that  it  is  destined  speedily  to  come  to  an  end.  This,  to  my  mind,  betrays  a  very  weid^ 
place  in  the  Heathenism  of  India.  We  go  with  the  conviction  that  we  have  a  religion  that 
is  eternal  and  lasting  u  the  destinies  of  the  human  soul.  Just  to  illustrate  this  point, 
the  growing  distrust  of  the  Hindoos  in  their  systems,  I  may  mention  that  one  of 
the  Missionaries  was  returning  home  from  preaching  at  a  distant  place,  and, 
passing  through  a  certain  village,  a  man  came  runnmg  out  to  him,  and  said, 
"Have  yon  heard  about  Ronga  Saorma?"  that  is,  the  chief  god  of  the  village. 
"What  about  him?*'  asked  the  Missionary.  "Oh,  some  thieves  came  to  his  temple, 
aad  stole  him  from  his  pedestal,  and  cast  him  to  the  bottom  of  a  well,"  was  the  reply. 
"  What  do  you  mean  to  do  ?"  said  the  Missionary.  *'0h,"  replied  the  Hindoo,  "  before  vou 
Mtasionaries  came  here  we  should  have  had  a  great  stir.  We  should  have  been  obliged  to 
raise  a  large  sum  of  money  to  pay  men  to  go  down  the  well  to  rescue  him  from  his  watery 
grave ;  and  then  we  should  have  had  to  raise  another  large  sum  of  money  to  pay  the  priests 
for  rcanointiDg*  and  re-deifying  the  poor  god,  and  placing  him  on  his  pedestal,  and 
making  him  worthy  to  receive  again  the  homage  of  the  people."  "  Well,  are  you  not  going 
to  do  it?"  "No,"  was  the  reply;  "  we  have  come  to  the  conclusion  that, if  he  cannot 
save  himself,  he  certainly  cannot  save  us."  And  to  this  very  day  the  poor  god  has  been  in 
his  watery  grave,  and  has  never  been  reanointed.  I  have  no  question  as  to  the  issue  of 
our  great  enterprise  i  I  never  had.  I  believe  in  the  Divinity  of  the  Gospel.  That  Gospel 
whieh  is  the  ereation  of  God  has  been  preserved  by  Him,  or  it  would  have  been  destroyed 
ages  since.  He  who  kindled  the  flame  of  truth  has  fanned  and  fed  if,  or  it  would  have  been 
extinguished  long  ago.  All  errors  have  endeavoured  to  overthrow  it.  Mahometanism 
rsjects  it,  and  claims  for  the  Koran  the  pre-eminence ;  and  Heathenism  confronts  it  with  its 
sacred  books  and  shasters ;  and  Infidelity  pronounces  it  to  be  trash,  and  unworthy  of  the 
credence  of  an  intelligent  mind ;  and  Popery  will  burn  it,  as  it  has  done  in  the  streets  of 
Western  Ireland :  but  the  old  Gospel  lifts  up  its  head  above  the  water-floods,  and  aheds  light 
and  blessings  on  all  around.  It  is  well  on  these  occasions  to  stir  up  our  faith  and  hope  by 
glancing  at  these  facts.  The  Gospel  is  to  be  nniversally  triumphant.  Christianity  and  the 
Bible  are  on  their  onward  march ;  they  are  leaving  behind  them  civilisation  and  science, 
and  literature  and  art.  The  stream  of  the  waters  of  truth  is  running  through  fr«ih 
territories  and  irrigating  fresh  soils.  The  sun  of  truth  is  beginning  to  disperse  the  moral 
gloom  in  which  many  of  the  nations  of  the  earth  have  been  for  ages  enshrouded.  The 
unsullied  light  of  God's  truth  is  beginning  to  penetrate  to  the  pagoda  of  the  Hindoo,  th*

hidiDg-place  of  the  New  Zetlander,  the  wildt  of  the  bashman,  the  mosqnes  of  Tarfcey,  and 

the  templet  of  China.    We  may  now  see  the  Arab  burning  his  Koran,  the  Kaffir  his  war- 

weapons,  the  wild  Ameriean  Indian  his  tomahawk  and  scalping-knife,  the  Indian  his 

shastres,  and  the  Chinaman  his  gods.    Flowers  of  paradise  bloom  where  only  thorns  and 

briers  once  grew.     Temples  for  the  Lord  Most  High  rear  their  beads  to  heaven  where  only 

idolstrons  temples  once  stood.     Songs  of  praise  salute  the  ear  of  the  great  Jehovah  where  . 

only  hideous  cries  and  profane  songs  were  once  heard.  There  are  fewer  inhuman  mothers  in 

India  than  formerly  who  will  cast  their  children  into  the  Ganges  to  be  devoured  by  the 

monsters  of  the  deep.    There  are  fewer  of  India's  tons  disposed  to  light  up  the  fire  which 

shall  consume  their  widowed  mothers.  The  temples  of  India  are  sinking  into  ruinous  decay, 

and  there  is  not  a  hand  to  rear  the  waste  places,  and  not  an  eye  to  shed  a  tear  over  the 

ruin.    No  new  temples  are  reared  in  India,  nor  do  the  people  care  to  repair  the  old  ones. 

The  lights  in  the  temple  of  Superstition  are  being  extinguished  one  by  one,  and  the  lamp 

of  Troth,  ever  brilliant,  is  being  substituted.  The  Crescent  wanes,  but  the  Cross  is  becoming 

more  and  more  resplendent.    And  these  are  the  signs  we  have  that  the  kingdom  of  Christ 

shall  come  with  power  and  grace  to  every  heart  of  man  ;  for  the  meek  thall  literally  inherit 

the  earth.   I  take  that  literally  to  mean  just  what  it  says — that  the  day  will  come  when  this 

earth  shall  be  peopled  and  filled  only  by  the  disciples  of  the  meek  and  lowly  Jesus.    God 

has  given  to  us,  the  followers  of  Jesus,  the  earth  as  our  property.    **  The  meek  shall  inherit 

the  earth ;  "  and  I  believe  it.     Suns  may  cease  to  shine,  and  planets  may  cease  to  roll ;  the 

everlasting  hills  may  be  upturned  ;  the  roost  stable  things  in  nature  may  be  moved :   but 

this  kingdom  shall  never — no,  never  be  moved.     Every  empire  incompatible  with  the 

enopire  of  Christ  must  be  dissolved.  Every  kingdom  that  stands  opposed  to  the  Redeemer's 

kingdom  must  give  way.    Paganism  must  decrease,  but  Christianity  roust  increase :  the 

Pope  must  die,  but  Jesus  Christ  shall  live.    The  Koran  shall  be  trampled  in  the  dust,  but 

the  Gospel  shall  be  lifted  up  on  high.    Vishnu,  Juggernaut,  and  Mary  the  Virgin  must 

have  fewer  worshippers ;  but  the  Crucified,  the  Virgin's  Son  and  the  Virgin's  Saviour, 

must    have    more.      Paganism    must    be   restricted;    her    sceptre    must    sway    over 

a  narrower  territory,  and  her  despotic  power  must  be  crushed,  and  that  sceptre  be  broken 

bit  by  bit,  until  the  Prince  of  Peace  Himself  comes  and  wrenches  from  her  palsied  and 

withered  hand  the  last  remaining  fragment,  and  He  Himself  assumes  the  throne  of 

universal  empire.     It  may  be  that  these  things  will  not  occur  in  our  day ;  our  lips  may  be 

silent  in  the  grave,  and  our  eyes  quenched  in  death,  before  these  glorious  issues  are 

realized ;  but  the  diadem  of  nations  shall  adorn  Hia  brow,  and  at  His   feet  shall  bow 

a    ransoroed    worid.       I    look    upon    ourselves    in    Christian    England    as    voyaging 

In   our  ark  of  safety  like  Noah   and    his  family  over  a  deluged  world.    The  world 

is  deluged  with  superstition,  and  ignorance,  and  wretchedness ;  and  we  are  in  our  ark  of 

Christisnity,  voyaging  upon  this  deluged  world.    And  I  am  thankful  to  say  our  ark  has 

windows,  and  we  are  permitted  to  look  out  now  and  then  to  see  the  state  of  the  tide  and  tell 

whether  it  is  ebbing  or  flowing.    Those  windows  are  our  Missionary  reports  :  they  let  light 

in  upon  us.    Yes ;  and  we  look  through  the  window  of  one  year's  report,  and  we  see  the 

tops  of  the  mountains  dotting  the  mighty  surface  of  the  sea  Of  superstition,  indicating  that 

the  waters  are  receding.     And  we  look  through  the  vrindow  of  another  year's  report,  and 

see  broad  aeres  spreading  beauteously  before  the  eye,  clad  with  verdure.    And  we  look 

through  the  window   of  another   year's  report,  and  we  see  vast  forests  waving  in  the 

breeze.    And  we  look  through  the  window  of  yet  another,  and  we  see  the  valleys  smiling 

with  corn  and  clad  with  froitfulness,  indicating  that  the  waters  are  receding  day  by  day  and 

year  by  year,  and  by-and-by  we  shall  be  permitted  to  look  through  the  vrindow  of  our 

Millennial  report,  and  then  we  shall  see  a  deluged  world  emerging  from  the  desolating  flood 

all  beauteous  as  paradise,  fragrant  with  every  Christian  virtue,  and  vocal  with  the  praises 

of  the  Most  High.    The  Sun  of  Truth  shall  climb  higher  and  higher  until  he  has  assumed 

his  noontide  splendour,  and  deluged  the  world  with  a  glory  which  shall  never  wax  dim. 

Dr.  Livingstone  said, — After  the  very  eloquent  addresses  you  have  listened  to,  I  should 
t>e  utterly  ashamed  to  let  my  voice  be  heard,  only  I  happen  to  be  a  witness  in  the  case 
that  seems  to  have  affected  the  gentlemen  who  have  spoken  very  much  more  than  it  did 
mc.  I  never  thought  the  assertions  made  at  the  Anthropological  Society  worth  answering* 
Bat  I  have  been  behind  the  scenes.  I  know  something  of  the  Missionaries,  and  I  know  a 
^ood  deal  about  the  converts.  Some  do  not  think  me  now  a  Missionary  at  all.  I  do  not 
:are  what  they  think  roe  if  they  only  will  grant  that  I  am  an  honest  witness.  I  have  seen 
lie  converts  and  the  Missionaries  in  both  South  Africa  and  in  West  Africa,  and  I  have  a 
otally  different  opinion  of  both  Missionaries  and  converts  from  what  has  been  put  forth  in

the  world.  I  believe  that  those  who  talk  of  either  the  conTerts  or  MisnoBariet  tt  bb* 
worthy  know  nothing  about  them.  I  had  the  pleasure  of  making  the  acqoaintanoe  of  a 
gentleman  in  South  Africa,  and  that  gentleman  has  had  an  idea,  ever  since  seeing  the 
working  of  the  Mission  under  Mr.  Moffat,  that  Mr.  Moffat  and  another  Miasionary  there 
arc  the  only  Missionaries  in  the  whole  world.  He  went  into  a  certain  town  one  day,  end 
was  surprised  to  find  that  he  met  no  one ;  but,  on  getting  to  the  centre  of  the  town,  he 
found  a  black  man  preaching  to  all  the  inhabitants.  That  black  man,  he  adoaits  now, 
must  be  a  good  fellow.  That  black  man  you  may  see  figured  in  a  certain  picture  that 
has  become  very  common,  as  standing  by  a  Missionary  when  he  was  getting  bitten  by  a 
Hon.  He  showed  himself  a  man  of  courage  then :  be  has  shown  himself  ever  since  a 
brave  and  good  Christian  man.  Now  my  friend  does  not  know  how  to  show  me  snfllcieBt 
kindness  ever  since,  simply  because  he  saw  what  I  was  doing ;  and  I  think  that  any  man 
who  has  gone,  as  I  have  done,  and  seen  the  Missionaries  at  work,  and  conversed  with  the 
people,  the  converts  would  entertain  quite  as  high  an  idea  of  them  as  my  friend  ha^ 
done.  In  my  opinion,  looking  at  the  Missionaries  on  the  West  Coast,  and  likewise  in  Sonth 
Africa,  and  seeing  how  often  they  are  cut  off  by  disease  and  how  they  bravely  hold  on,  it 
only  w  ants  an  air  of  antiquity  thrown  over  them  to  decide  that  they  are  quite  equal  to  the 
saints  and  martyrs  of  old.  Ever  since  I  was  a  boy  I  have  heard  a  great  deal  about  the 
advance  of  Mahometanism,  and  in  my  pretty  extensive  travels  I  Jiave  always  been  lookibg 
out  for  the  advance  of  that  wave  of  Mahometanism  which  I  was  led  to  believe  woold 
soon  spread  over  the  whole  continent  of  Africa.  Now  I  never  happened  to  meet  a 
Mahometan  till  two  years  ago,  when  I  met  two  Arabs  on  Ldike  Nyassa.  These  men  were 
very  busy  slave-traders,  and  they  were  building  an  Arab  vessel  to  transport  slaves  aeroas 
the  lake  towards  the  east,  and  were  as  busy  as  they  could  possibly  be  in  transpontog 
slaves  constantly  by  means  of  two  boats.  One  of  these  men  I  found  to  be  very  intelligent, 
and  we  could  hold  conversation  together.  I  was  anxious  to  find  out  whether  he  had  been 
made  a  convert  to  Mahometanism.  The  Arabs,  I  should  say,  had  been  at  that  place  for 
about  fourteen  years.  This  poor  fellow  knew  nothing  at  all  about  Mahometanism :  he 
simply  knew  that  it  was  wrong  to  eat  an  animal  if  its  throat  was  not  cut.  The  people 
knew  as  much  of  our  religion  as  that  in  about  three  weeks  after  our  arrival, 
they  would  not  go  to  their  gardens  on  Sunday ;  they  thought  it  would  be  unlncky  ; 
that  if  they  hoed  their  gardens  on  Sunday,  they  would  reap  an  unlucky  crop.  But  that  is 
not  the  teaching  of  Missionaries.  All  the  Mahometan  proselytism  that  has  come  under  my 
own  observation,  and  all  that  I  have  been  able  to  ascertain  about  their  converts,  is  simply  this : 
that  occasionally  in  West  and  North  Africa  they  make  forays,  and  catch  a  number  of  people, 
and  sometimes  conquer  large  portions  of  territory.  Now  in  doing  this  they  gratify  their 
own  selfishness:  they  get  slaves,  they  get  land  and  other  plunder.  But  I  find  lately,  in 
making  some  inquiries,  that  the  native  Christians,  the  men  whom  our  Missionaries  have 
converted  in  West  and  South  Africa  and  in  the  West  Indies,  contribute  upwards  of  £15,000 
annually  for  the  support  and  spread  of  their  faith.  Now  I  think  that  the  religion  which 
teaches  people  to  deny  themselt es  and  to  make  sacrifices  must  be  Divine ;  and,  from  all 
that  I  can  ascertain,  the  only  religion  that  makes  proselytes  is  the  religion  of  our  Lord 
Jesus  Christ.  A  very  interesting  fact  came  to  my  knowledge  on  the  West  Coaat.  I  was  in 
Sierra  Leone  in  1858,  and  four  years  previously  the  converts  belonging  to  one  seetion  of 
the  Mission  Churches  of  the  Church  Missionary  Society  had  taken  upon  themselves  the 
entire  cost  of  the  schools  there.  That  had  relieved  the  Society  at  home  of  an  annual  cost 
of  £800.  Now  I  do  not  think  so  much  of  the  converts  actually  made ;  I  thuk  much  more 
of  the  leavening  process  going  on  throughout  the  country;  and  I  had  an  opportunity  of 
observing  this  leavening  process  particularly  with  regard  to  the  Mission  referred  to  at  the 
commencement  of  the  Report  by  Dr.  Tidman.  Mr.  Moffat  had  been  at  the  station  two 
months  before  I  reached  the  point  up  to  Zambesi,  about  three  hundred  miles  distant,  and 
one  evening  a  man  came  and  told  me  he  had  been  there,  and  that  the  Englbh  had  come 
and  told  their  god  not  to  kill  any  more  people,  and  that  he  had  agreed  so  to  do.  Now 
that  would  be  the  most  prominent  feature  to  the  natives  in  Mr.  Moffat's  opening  of  that 
Mission.  This  shows,  I  think,  that  the  leaven  spreads  very  much  farther  than  the 
Missionaries  imagine.  The  slaves,  when  the  public  whip  is  in  force — ^for  they  have  a  regular 
institution  of  that  kind— often  call  out  while  undergoing  the  lash,  "  Oh,  for  the  English ! 
When  will  the  English  come  ?''  which  of  course  makes  their  muters  very  much  more 
angry  than  they  were  before.  But  this  again  shows  that  the  good  name  which  the  EngKsk 
have  acquired  through  the  Missionaries,  and  through  the  efforts  of  our  Government,  extends 
a  long  way  inland.  The  leavening  process  goes  on,  and  men  are  prepared  for  much  greater 
advances  in  Christianity  than  we  shall  ever  see  in  our  day.  The  converts  that  I  have  seei 
have  been  an  honour  to  Christianity.    There  are  some— as  we  have  a  good  sprinkliiv

•moDgst  otiraelves — who  tre  no  better  than  they  should  be  ;  but  the  majority,  when  com- 
pared— it  is  not  fair  to  compare  them  with  ourselves  at  home — but  when  compared 
with  the  Heathen  from  whom  they  have  been  drawn,  then  I  think  every  honest  intelligent 
witness  would  adroit  that  the  Missious  of  the  Christian  Churches  in  this  country  have  been 
a  great  success.  The  success  will  be  much  greater  in  time  to  come,  because  the  work  of 
preparation  is  going  on  now.  It  is  going  on  in  every  country  where  we  have  Missionaries, 
and  in  the  course  of  time,  perhaps .  in  the  time  of  our  children,  there  will  be  the  great 
avalanche  cf  Christianity  spreading  over  the  whole  world.  I  may  say  I  am  going  out  next 
month  again  to  my  labours;  and  I  would  add  that  I  should  be  extremely  glad  and 
thankful  if  you  will  follow  me  with  your  prayers. 

The  Resolution  was  carried  unanimously. 

The  Chairman  announced  that  he  had  engagements  at  the  House  of  Commons  which 
compelled  him,  though  with  great  reluctance,  to  vacate  the  chair. 

The  chair  was  then  taken  by  Ma.  Bainbs. 

Th£  Rbv.  Samubl  Minton,  M.A.,  said, — The  Resolution  which  I  am  about  to  propose 
was  to  have  been  moved  by  my  friend  the  Rev.  Mr.  Price,  Chaplain  of  the  Lock.  When  he 
found  himself  unexpectedly  prevented  from  coming,  and  your  Committee  asked  me  to  supply 
bis  place,  I  felt  it  to  be  an  urgent  call  of  duty  which  it  was  impossible  to  resist.  If  there 
be  anything  in  that  which  sounds  like  unwillingness  on  my  part  to  appear  here  to-day, 
you  must  please  to  attribute  it  to  a  growing  reluctance,  on  purely  personal  considerations, 
to  take  part  in  public  meetings,  and  to  give  me  credit  for  esteeming  it  an  honour  to  be 
allowed  again  to  express  my  full  and  cordial  sympathy  with  the  grand  and  simple  object  of 
this  Society ;  namely,  tb  preach  the  Gospel,  the  whole  Gospel,  and  nothing  but  the  Gospel, 
to  the  Heathen  world.  Would  that  every  Missionary  Society  in  Christendom  had  such  an 
exclusively  Scriptural  object  in  view.  The  Resolution  itself  is  somewhat  out  of  the  beaten 
track,  and  reads  as  follows : — 

"  1  bat  this  Meeting,  while  ascribing  all  honour  «nd  glory  to  the  Supreme  Ruler  of  princes  and 
nations,  it  truly  grateful  lo  ihe  British  Uovemment  for  its  prompt  interposition  on  l>ehalf  of  the 
Society's  ngents  labouring  in  the  Loyalty  Islands,  subjected,  with  the  native  Protestant  Christians, 
to  the  oppressive  measures  of  the  Governor  of  New  Caledonia.  Bat  the  Meeting  feels  especiall  j  in- 
debted to  the  enlightened  and  generous  measures  adopted  by  bis  Msjesty  the  Rroperorof  the  French 
in  rtrToking  the  intolerant  proceedings  of  his  representative,  and  in  giving  the  assurance  of  protection 
and  liberty  to  all  Christisn  Missionnries— Protestant  or  Catholic— labouring  for  the  instruction  and 
civilization  of  heathen  tribes." 

Leaving  the  particular  details  of  the  Resolution  to  persons  better  competent  to  deal  with 
them  than  myself — I  am  not  aware  who  is  to  follow  me,  but  I  hope  some  Christian  poli- 
tician will  take  up  the  details — but,  leaving  these,  it  strikes  one  at  the  first  glance  that 
Missionary  work  is  put  before  us  here  rather  in  its  national  aspect ;  for  I  presume,  without 
in  the  smallest  decree  impeaching  the  earnest  anxiety  of  the  British  Government  or  the 
Emperor  of  the  French  for  the  fuccess  of  Missionary  mork  in  our  point  of  view,  it  is 
perhaps  rather  with  regard  to  the  blessings  which  Christianity  manifestly  brings  to  all 
nations  brought  under  the  influence  of  tl  e  Gospel,  that  we  may  attribute,  and  perhaps  hope 
to  see,  that  they  will  be  willing  still  further  to  extend  at  least  their  protection  to  Christian 
Missionary  efforts.  In  its  national  aspects,  therefore,  we  say  that  Christianity  brings  with 
it  the  greatest  blessings  that  have  been  brought  to  any  nation  under  the  sun.  And  where, 
sir,  have  we  a  better  right^  to  make  such  an  assertion,  where  can  we  make  it  with  less 
possil>ility  of  being  contradicted,  than  in  this  our  highly  favoured  land  ?  We  are  sometimes 
tauntingly  asked^  for  Missionary  facts.  Mirsionsry  facts !  why,  what  is  England  but  a  great 
Missionary  fact  ?  The  greatest  Missionary  fact  in  the  whole  world  is  this  our  own  country. 
To  what  are  we  indebted  for  all  the  blessings  which  we  enjoy,  for  our  civil  and  religious 
liberty,  for  all  our  social  and  domestic  blessings,  for  everything  we  hold  desr?  To  what 
are  we  indebted  for  it,  but  to  the  great  Missionary  principle  ?  What  matters  it  that  Mis- 
sionary work  began  in  this  country  centuries  ago  ?  We  are  still  the  result  and  fmit  of 
Misaionary  labour,  just  u  much  as  if  we  had  only  been  converted  to  Christianity  the  year 
before  last.  And  therefore,  sir,  of  all  preposterous  absurdities,  nothing  can  exceed  a  man's 
standing  up,  or,  if  you  like,  sitting  down  and  writing,  here,  in  this  land  of  England,  bnd 
asking  with  an  incredulous  tone,  "  Where  are  your  Missionary  facts  ?''   Surely,  sir,  if  there 


186  M180IONA&Y  MAGAZINE 

be  any  set  of  people  under  tbe  son  that  are  more  imperatively  than  others  boond  to  proaeente 
Missionary  labours  from  a  common  sense  of  gratitude,  it  is  just  this  people  of  England.  No 
nation  under  the  sun  has  derived  such  blessings  from  Missionary  enterprise  as  we  have  ;  and 
are  we  now  to  turn  round  upon  the  Missionary  principle  and  say,  having  got  from  it  all  that 
we  can  get,  **  There  it  may  stop''— to  turn  round  and  trample  upon  our  greatest  benefactor  ? 
The  force  of  ingratitude  could  not,  I  believe,  further  go  than  in  an  Englishman's  sneering  at 
Missionary  labour.  But,  sir,  there  is  another  feature  of  the  Missionary  work  in  its  national 
aspect  in  which,  perhaps,  I  feel  more  deeply  interested  still.  We  are  told  that,  when 
all  the  fruits  of  Christian  Missions  shall  hereafter  be  assembled  round  the  throne,  they 
will  be  found  to  have  come  out  of  etery  nation  and  kindred,  and  people  and  tongue ; 
and,  whatever  views  we  may  respectively  entertain  as  to  the  ultimate  result  of 
Missionary  work  upon  nations  as  nations,  by  whatever  means  we  may  expect 
righteousness  ultimatdy  to  cover  the  earth  as  the  waters  cover  the  sea,  we  are  all  agreed  that 
the  first  immediate  object  of  Missionary  work,  as  declared  in  God's  Word,  is  to  gather  out 
a  people  from  among  every  kindred,  and  nation,  and  tongue ;  that  God  has  visited  the 
Geutiies  to  take  out  of  them  a  people  for  His  name.  The  first  remark  we  make  npon  thai 
universally  admitted  fact  is  that,  so  regarded.  Christian  Missions  not  only  are,  but  always 
have  been,  at  every  period  and  in  every  place,  what  they  have  just  been  said  to  be  in  Africa— 
a  great  success ;  that  is  to  say,  they  have  always  done  the  work  that  God  had  for  them  to  do. 
I  deny  entirely  Missionary  failure  in  any  way  whatever.  I  admits  that  it  has  not  done  all 
that  man  expected  it  to  do— that  man  hoped  for — that  man  would  have  rejoiced  to  see  it 
do ;  that  it  has  not  done  all  that  the  Missionaries  themselves  hoped  for,  or  those  who  seat 
them  forth :  but  I  maintain  it  has  never  failed  to  do  fully  and  completely  God's  own  work. 
In  His  own  place,  and  at  His  own  time.  For  eighteen  hundred  years  it  has  been  doing  that 
which  was  God's  purpose  in  it.  It  has  been  gathering  out  of  Jews  and  Gentiles,  but  par- 
ticularly  out  of  the  Gentiles,  a  people  for  His  name.  The  second  remark  we  make  is  this : 
that  in  such  proved  capacity  for  gathering  out  a  people  to  God  from  every  kindred,  and 
nation,  and  tongue,  from  every  class  of  persons  in  every  kindred,  and  nation,  and  tongue,  we 
have  one  of  the  strongest  proofs  that  can  be  afforded  of  the  truth  of  the  Gospel.  Yon 
vrill  remember  that  on  this  very  ground,  in  one  of  his  Epistles,  St.  Paul  rested  his  ooafidenoe 
in  it.  He  says,  *'  Therefore  seeing  we  have  this  ministry,  as  we  hare  received  mercy,  we 
faint  not ;  but  have  renounced  the  hidden  things  of  shame"  (tbat  is,  we  have  renounoed 
those  underhand  tricks  of  which  people  are  ashamed,  and  which  when  exposed  bring  them 
shame),  "  not  walking  in  craftiness,  nor  handling  the  Word  of  God  deceitfully"  (not  driven  to 
any  such  expedients  by  want  of  confidence  in  the  power  of  the  Gospel  to  do  its  own  work) ; 
"but,"  the  apostle  says,  "by  manifestation  of  tbe  truth  commending  ourselves  to  every 
man's  conscience  in  tbe  sight  of  God"  (or  rather  to  the  whole  conscience  of  men,  which 
is  not  quite  the  same  thing).  Now,  if  by  the  manifestation  of  the  truth  he  commended 
hinuelf  to  the  common  conscience  of  man,  it  could  only  be  by  the  truth  commending  iUtif 
to  the  common  conscience  of  man.  And  we  declare  that  to  be  the  fact,  a  fact  which  is 
abundantly  proved  by  the  history  of  the  last  eighteen  hundred  years.  We  find  that,  amongst 
Jew  and  Gentile,  men  and  women,  young  and  old,  rich  and  poor,  in  every  clime,  in  every 
age,  in  every  subdivision  of  every  society,  amongst  the  learned  and  unlearned,  amongst  the 
sick  and  the  whole,  in  crowded  cities  and  in  desolate  wildernesses,  amongst  persona  of  crcfj 
shade  of  character — the  virtuous,  the  amiable,  the  moral,  as  well  as  amongst  those  who  have 
been  steeped  in  every  kind  of  vice  aod  crime — amongst  persons,  too,  of  every  grade  of 
intellectual  capacity,  from  some  of  the  profoundest  minds  tbat  have  ever  appeared  in  the 
world  down,  we  may  say  without  exaggeration,  to  the  drivelling  idiot — the  Gospel  has  come 
in  millions  of  instances  and  commended  itself  to  the  common  conscience  of  man.  For, 
observe,  in  countless  millions  of  these  cases,  not  two  of  which  are  precisely  alike,  it  has 
not  been  a  mere  assent  of  the  understanding  to  a  certain  abstract  troth }  but  it  has  been  the 
embracing  by  the  man's  whole  being  of  a  truth  which  has  changed*  his  whole  life  ;  it  has 
been  the  embracing  of  something  for  which  men  have  been  willing  from  that  day  forward 
to  live  and  to  die,  which  they  have  valued  more  than  all  the  world  besides,  and  which  they 
would  give  up  for  nothing  that  could  be  offered.  Now,  sir,  it  has  been  said  with  great  trath 
— I  do  not  put  the  idea  forward  at  all  as  an  original  one,  but  I  cannot  forbear  just  touching 
upon  it  in  passing — that  in  this  great  fact  we  have,  perhaps,  after  all,  the  strongest  proof  of 
the  real  unity  of  the  human  race.  Men  of  science  examine  the  outer  man,  examine  hia  bones, 
bis  skin,  his  hair,  his  nerves,  his  veins,  the  whole  complex  material  of  his  body  ;  they  examine 
his  language,  they  examine  evei7thing  about  him ;  and,  sir,  we  venture  to  say,  stiU,  that  on 
that  evidence  alone  the  verdict  is  unquestionably  yet  in  favour  of  the  unity  of  the  human 
race )  that  is  to  say,  that  the  evidence  in  favour  of  it  far  outweighs  the  evidenoe  againat  it. 
But  when  the  men  of  science,  to  whom  we  concede  all  honour  in  their  sphere,  have  brought 


Foa  JUNE,  1866.  187 

forward  their  evidence  from  the  outer  mao,  then  couea  in  the  Oofpel;  tnd^  penetrating 
right  into  the  depths  of  the  man'i  spiritual  being— into  his  soul  and  spirits—it  finds  him  there, 
in  the  depths  of  his  spiritual  being,  in  ever/  clime  and  in  every  time,  under  all  circumstances, 
one  and  the  same  man,  a  common  sinner,  needing  a  eommon  Saviour,  a  true  descendant  In 
bis  ruin  from  the  first  man,  Adam,  and  capable  of  being  made,  by  the  living  principle  of 
faith,  a  true  member  of  the  mystical  body  of  the- second  man,  who  is  the  Lord  from  heaven. 
But,  sir,  our  chief  interest  in  the  fact  is  the  proof  it  aflfords  that  the  Gospel  is  what  it  pro- 
fesses.  For  it  professes  to  be  adapted  to  the  eommon  necessities  of  man.  We  are  com* 
manded  to  preach  it  to  every  creature,  and  every  creature  who  hears  it  hu  the  alternative  of 
being  saved  by  believing  it,  or  of  being  thrust  into  deeper  oondemnation  by  rejecting  it. 
If  it  could  be  found  that  there  was  any  one  daas  of  Biankind^any  one  class,  observe — any 
nation,  any  tribe ;  if  it  had  been  found  that  any  set  of  men,  under  certain  specified  con- 
ditions as  a  body,  could  not  be  reached  by  the  Gospel,  that  it  was  incapable  of  meeting 
their  wants, — then  the  Qospel  could  not  be  what  it  professes  to  be,  a  remedy  provided  by 
God  Himsdf  for  man's  spiritual  necessities.  But  we  need  go  no  further  than  the  reports 
of  the  Societies  which  have  been  read  in  this  room  and  other  places  in  this  metropolis 
daring  the  last  two  weeks  for  abundant  proof  that  it  does  oommend  itself  to  the  common 
conscience  of  man.  But  then^  sfar,  in  connection  with  this  there  is  another  proof  of  a  veiir 
different  kind.  We  are  met  by  a  man  who  says,  **  Bnt  the  Gospel  does  not  commend  itself 
to  my  conscience :  on  the  contrary,  my  whole  being  revolts  from  it  and  resents  it.  My 
consdenoe  tells  me  that  what  you  profess  the  very  central  truth  of  that  Gospel — that  Christ 
died,  the  just  for  the  unjust ;  that  He  who  knew  no  sin  was  made  sin  for  us — why,  that  very 
truth,  as  you  call  it,  seems  to  me  to  be  the  very  height  of  immorality,  and,  so  fkr  Arom 
commending  itself  to  my  conscience,  my  conscience  tells  me  that  a  Gospel  that  proclaims 
that  cannot  be  from  God."  Well,  my  friend,  I  do  not  deny  that  it  so  appears  to  yon ;  I 
fully  admit  it.  I  have  not  the  slightest  doubt  that  it  appears  honestly  to  your  mind  as 
you  say  it  doeii.  I  do  not  ohurge  you  vrith  hypocrisy ;  I  have  no  doubt  of  the  fact ;  and  I 
further  add  that,  if  there  were  not  such  cases  as  yours,  then  we  should  want  one  necessary 
proof  of  the  truth  of  God's  Word;  for  God's  Word  declares  that  there  will  be  such  cases. 
The  very  Gospel  that  professes  to  commend  itself  to  the  eommon  conscience  of  man.  Itself 
declares,  with  the  same  breath,  that  from  some  men  it  is  "hid;"  and  it  adds,  by  the  mouth 
of  the  same  apostle,  in  the  very  same  sentence,  the  cxplanatiofi  of  that  fact.  '*  If  our 
Gospel  be  hid,  it  is  hid  to  them  that  are  perishing*'  (not  actually  lost,  but  perishing)  :  "  in 
whom  the  god  of  this  world  hath  blinded  the  minds  of  them  whioh  believe  not,  lest  the  light 
of  the  glorious  Gospel  of  Christy  who  is  the  image  of  God,  should  shine  onto  them."  There  is 
the  true  account  of  the  matter*  The  god  of  this  world  has  blinded  your  mhid— not  merely 
hardened  your  heart,  not  merely  stupified  the  conscience,  not  merely  perverted  the  will — 
but  he  has  blinded  your  understanding,  your  inteUect,  your  very  mind,  so  that  all  the  glory 
of  Christ,  who  is  the  image  of  God,  shining  forth  in  the  Gospel,  just  seems  to  you  utter 
darkness.  And  therefore  I  would  just  say,  before  I  sit  down,  that  we  are  not  in  the  least 
discouraged  from  sending  this  Gospel  to  the  ends  of  the  earth  because  of  any  number  of 
such  cases  as  those  at  home*  Blinded  minds  may  tell  na  it  is  all  a  delusion ;  but  we  are 
only  just  the  more  encouraged  to  proclaim  the  Ooepel  of  God  fir  and  near,  because  we 
speak  that  which  we  know,  and  testify  that  which  we  have  felt  the  power  i3f  in  our- 
selves. And,  sir,  as  long  as  the  Church  at  borne  is  found  ^leaking  with  such  a  trumpet- 
voice  as  it  does  to  the  ends  of  the  earth,  sending  hundreds  and  thousands  of  Mission- 
aries abroad  to  proclaim  the  truth  throughout  the  world,  so  long  we  may  be  sure 
that  at  heart  the  Churoh  at  home  still  believes.  For  never  would  any  Church  care  to  pro- 
pagate a  religion  of  doubt  and  uncertainty)  never  wotdd  men  feel  any  enthusiasm  in 
sending  forth  to  others  what  they  were  not  quite  sure  of  themselves.  So  long  as  our 
Missionary  Societies  stand  and  do  the  work  even  that  they  era  doing  now,  so  long  we  shall 
rejoice  to  know  that  the  heart  of  the  Church  is  sound  at  home,  and  still  believes  what  has 
been  so  often  oalled  on  this  platform  to*day,  the  old  Gosp«l  of  the  grace  of  God.  We 
trust  that  that  faith  will  be  strengthened  more  and  more,  and  that,  aa  tl^  Church  increases 
in  faith,  so  it  will  increase  in  Missionary  zeal,  and  that  in  evef-inenaaing  degree  we  may  act 
up  to  the  spirit  of  Heber's  noble  missionary  hymui  which  one  never  tires  of  hearing  or 
quoting  :— 

"  Salvation,  oh,  Salvation  I 

The  Joyful  sound  proclaim. 

Till  earth's  remotest  nation 

Has  learned  Messiah's  name."

poUtieianf  as  well  aa  learned  divine*    The  Rev.  Dr.  Alexander  wiQ  second  it. 


188  MIS8I0NAKY  MAGAZINE 

The  Rev.  Dr.  Albxandbs  :— I  wm  in  hopes,  sir,  from  the  language  you  hsTe  jnat  used 
in  Introduoing  me,  that  some  other  gentleman,  answering  the  description  given,  was  to  take 
my  place  in  seconding  this  Resolution.  I  suppose  there  is  hardly  one  upon  this  p^a^^f^ra 
who  less  deserves  the  title  of  Christian  politician  than  I  do ;  for  my  studies  lead  me  so  modi 
in  another  direction  that  I  am  obliged  to  learn  my  politics  always  at  second-hand,  and  I  an 
inclined  in  this  department  to  follow  certain  leaders  whose  speeches  i  read  in  the  news- 
papers, delivered  in  the  House  of  Commons,  amongst  whom,  sir,  you  occupy  a  very 
honourable  place.  I  do  not  intend,  in  seconding  the  Resolution,  to  intrude  more  than  a  few 
minutes  upon  the  attention  of  the  Meeting.  The  subject  of  the  Resolution  is  not  one  wfaidi 
needs  to  be  very  largely  expounded,  nor  is  the  purport  of  the  Resolution  one  which  needs  to 
be  very  vigilantly  advocated  before  this  Meeting.  It  seems  to  me  to  say  all  that  requires 
to  be  said  upon  the  subject  to  which  it  relates.  We  all  felt  it  t^  be  a  grievous  matter  wbea 
the  invasion  was  made  upon  our  peaceful  and  useful  Missionaries  in  the  islands  referred  to. 
We  felt  it  was  a  grievous  wrong  done  to  us.  There  was  no  excuse  for  it :  there  was  no 
allegation  that  our  Missionaries  had  departed  from  their  proper  sphere  of  work,  seeking  to 
use  influence  against  those  who  had  come  amongst  them.  There  was  no  allegation  of  any 
insubordination,  or  any  attempt  at  insubordination,  arising  from  the  teaching  of  our  Mis- 
sionaries  :  they  were  simply  pursuing  the  even  tenour  of  their  way,  seeking  to  win  men  to 
Christianity,  and  build  them  up  in  holiness  and  faith.  The  only  possible  reason  that  could 
be  assigned  for  the  act  of  aggression  referred  to  was  that  the  party  who  was  guilty  had 
acted  under  the  influence  and  at  the  instigation  of  persons  who  looked  with  an  evil  eye  upon 
the  evangelistic  efforts  of  our  Missionaries  in  these  islands,  and  who,  not  having  themaelves 
sought  to  win  men  to  Christianity,  were  anxious,  after  their  own  fashion,  to  enter  upon 
other  men's  labours,  and,  if  possible,  to  pervert  the  influence  that  had  been  previously  lued 
for  their  own  ends.  Happily  this  design  has  been  fhutrated,  and  this  motion  proposes  to 
acknowledge  the  great  hand  of  God  in  this  matter  as  the  great  Ruler  by  whom  kings  rdgn. 
It  is  proper  that  we  should  recognise  the  good  offices  of  our  Government  in  this  matter, 
and  proper  also  that  we  should  give  all  honour  to  the  Emperor  of  the  French  for  the  manner 
in  which  he  received  the  remonstrances  addressed  to  him,  and  for  the  steps  he  has  taken  in 
order  to  repress  the  aggression  that  has  been  made.  We  must  not  forget  that  it  was  a 
somewhat  difficult  thing  for  him  to  do  this.  We  must  not  forget  that  it  is  a  very 
difficult  thing  to  teach  emperors  to  let  Christianity  alone.  We  must  not  forget  that  there 
may  be  very  many  influences  at  work  which,  as  a  politician,  might  have  weightily  affected 
his  mind  against  his  taking  thi^  step  ;  and  therefore  we  must  give  him  all  honour  that  he 
has  so  promptly  and  decidedly  rebidced  the  aggression  of  his  inferior  officer,  and  restored 
toleration  to  the  inhabitants  of  these  islands.  He  has  thus  given  to  us  what  we  asked,  and 
all  that  we  asked.  We  wished  for  nothing  more  than  simply  liberty  to  preach  the  glorioos 
Gospel  of  the  grace  of  God  to  those  benighted  people.  We  asked  for  nothing  but  simple 
liberty  and  protection ;  and  this  he  has  given  us,  and  for  this  it  becomes  us  to  give  Mm 
thanks.  I  shall  not  detain  the  Meeting  by  enlarging  upon  the  general  object  of  the  Mis- 
sionary Society.  I  thought,  before  coming  here,  of  having  a  few  words  with  the  gentlemen 
of  the  Anthropological  Society ;  but  they  have  been  so  thoroughly  disposed  of  that  I  think 
it  would  be  only  an  intrusion  on  the  Meeting  for  me  to  dwell  upon  them  any  longer.  1 
would  only  say  that  perhaps  we  may  not  very  anxiously  concern  ourselves  for  the  defeocs 
of  the  African  against  the  charges  which  have  been  brought  against  him  by  the  menibers  of 
that  Society,  for  it  has  been  intimated  to  us  that  Bishop  Colenso  is  about  to  favour  m  with 
his  views  upon  the  subject.  Doubtless,  when  the  Bishop  begins  to  write  upon  the 
African  people  he  will  not  forget  that  it  was  to  an  African  that  he  was  himself  ind^>ied 
for  the  first  suggestion  of  those  great  thoughts  which  his  university  education  and  long 
experience  as  a  minister  of  the  Gospel  had  failed  to  suggest ;  and  he  will  doubtleet  not  be 
so  ungrateful  as  to  forget  to  exalt  very  highly  the  Intellectuid  capacities  of  a  people  one  of 
whom  was  the  honoured  instrument  of  leading  him  into  a  field  of  light  into  which  he  had 
not  before  entered.  These  gentlemen  have  chosen  to  bring  a  charge  against  our  MiasioBs, 
and  have  not  hesitated  to  say  that,  instead  of  making  people  better,  we  have  made  them 
worse.  I  think  that  thoughtful  men,  reading  men,  even  those  who  are  not  acquainted  with 
the  history  of  Missions,  wUl  look  somewhat  askance  at  a  statement  like  that.  They  wtt 
naturally  say,  *<  Well,  if  this  has  been  the  effect  of  Christian  Missions  in  Africa,  in  tht 
middle  of  the  nineteenth  century,  it  is  a  most  extraordinary  phenomenon ;  a  phenomenoa 
not  merely  in  the  history  of  Christianity,  but  in  the  history  of  man,  well  worthy  indeed  of 
being  considered  by  the  Anthropological  Society ;  because,  for  the  first  time  after  maay 
centuries,  and  after  the  experiment  has  been  tried  amongst  all  peoples,  has  it  been  fomai 
out  that  Christianity  has  made  men  worse  instead  of  better."  But  before  we  receive  ths 
testimony  of  these  men  as  opposed  to  the  testimony  of  the  Miasio^iu^^amalves,  wt

should  require  to  know  a  little  about  tbem.*'  Now  I  am  not  prepared  to  bring  any  cbarge 
•gmintt  these  men,  for  reallj  I  know  nothing  aboot  them.  All  that  I  know,  gathered  from 
the  report  of  the  Meeting,  is  that  they  seem  to  me  very  unscientific  men,  men  who  indalge 
in  extremely  rash  assertions,  and  t^ho  seem  to  pursue  science  by  anything  but  the  Baconian 
process  of  inductive  investigation.  But  one  of  them  has  not  hesitated  to  meet  the  evidence 
with  which  we  would  meet  his  assertion  and  that  of  his  friends,  by  saying  that  the  testimony 
of  such  men  as  Livingstone  and  Moffat,  and  that  class,  is  to  Ije  taken  with  great  deductions. 
Well,  Mr.  Chairman,  here  we  are  with  a  contrast  of  evidence.  We  have  the  Missionariea 
upon  the  one  side,  and  we  have  these  gentlemen  of  whom  we  have  heard  for  the  first  time 
upon  the  other.  Which  are  we  to  believe  ?  I  simply  say,  Livingstone  we  know,  and  Moffat 
we  know  ;  but  these  men,  who  are  they  ?  I  want  to  know  what  opportunities  they  have 
had  of  examining  into  this  subject.  I  want  to  know  whether  their  experience  is  confined  to 
a  few  towns  upon  the  coast,  where,  unhappily,  there  may  be  natives  who  have  come  in 
contact  with  ^-caMed  Christians,  and  have  been  really  deteriorated  by  the  contact ;  or  whether 
they  have  surveyed  the  whole  country  at  large,  and  are  drawing  their  inductions  from  a  wide 
generality  of  facts.  I.  want  to  know  whether  they  understood  the  languages  of  the  people, 
whether  they  had  any  conversation  with  them.  In  short,  being  a  humble  student  of  the 
Baconian  philosophy  and  method,  I  want  to  '*  purge  "  the  instances,  as  Bacon  says,  before  I 
draw  any  inferences  from  them.  In  the  meantime,  as  we  know  these  Missionaries,  and 
have  tested  their  veracity  again  and  again,  and  know  them  to  be  right,  honourable,  and  truthful 
men,  and  are  aware  that  they  have  had  the  fullest  opportunities  of  looking  into  the  whole 
matter,  we  crave  permission  to  believe  them,  and  to  disbelieve  the  gentlemen  who  have 
addressed  the  Anthropological  Society.  Allow  me  to  go  a  little  further ;  and  I  think  in 
justice  we  must  go  a  little  further.  In  ordinary  society,  when  we  find  a  man  indulging 
in  very  rash  assertions,  in  statements  which  we  know  to  be  really  untruthful,  we  very 
naturally  come  to  doubt  the  man  when  he  speaks  upon  a  subject  on  which  he 
professes  to  know  better  than  we  do.  I  think  that  is  a  fair  test.  Now  one  of  these 
gentlemen  has  given  us  an  opportunity  of  testing  him  in  that  way.  He  has  conde- 
scended upon  a  fact,  as  he  says.  He  tells  us  that  the  Missionaries  can  never  be 
opposed  to  polygamy,  because  every  one  of  them,  somehow  or  other,  gets  four  or  five 
wives.  The  ladies  die  off;  they  send  home  the  intelligence  that  they  want  a  wife,  and 
the  Secretaries  of  our  Society  collect  photographs  and  send  them  out.  Now  we  know 
that  that  is  not  true.  I  wonder  it  was  not  taken  up  at  the  Anthropological  meeting 
as  presenting  a  very  curious  anthropological  fact;  namely,  that  in  that  country  it  is 
only  the  women  that  die  :  the  missionaries  survive,  but  their  wives  go ;  so  that  every  man 
oomea,  in  the  long-run,  to  have  some  four  or  five  of  them.  That  is  surely  a  very 
curious  anthropological  fact.  But  we  know  that  what  this  gentleman  hu  asserted  to 
be  the  usual  practice  of  the  societies  is  not  the  practice  of  any  society,  and  would  not 
be  tolerated  in  any  society  composed  of  gentlemen  and  Christians ;  and  in  the  name  of 
all  the  societies,  I  meet  the  statement  with  a  flat  denial— u  an  absolute  untruth.  I 
deny  it  in  the  name  of  our  Secretaries,  who  have  something  far  more  important  to  do 
than  to  keep  marriage  registrations.  And,  sir,  in  the  presence  of  many  ladies,  I  resent 
the  assertion  as  an  insult  to  them :  their  self-respect  and  their  high  spirit  would  never 
tolerate  anything  like  such  a  barter  of  them.  Now,  when  we  find  a  gentlenmn  standing  np 
and  giving  out  as  a  fact  what  we  have  the  best  meapj  of  knowing  to  be  a  simple  falsehood, 
I  say  we  are  justified  in  doubting  entirely  the  whole  of  the  testimony  that  he  has  chosen  to 
give  us  regarding  these  foreign  parts,  of  which  he  says  he  knows  more  than  we  do.  I  sup- 
pose we  may  leave  the  Anthropological  Society  now.  Perhapa  it  would  have  been  quite  as 
well  not  to  have  meddled  with  them  at  all,  but  to  have  left  them  to  themselves  and  the 
opinion  of  the  public.  I  dare  say  we  might  have  acted  without  much  injury  to  our  society, 
upon  the  principle  upon  which  the  navvy  acted,  according  to  the  story  told  of  him.  A  great 
giant  of  a  navvy,  who  happened  to  be  married  to  a.  rather  shrewish  wife,  upon  one  occasion 
received  a  slap  in  the  face  from  her,  which  he  took  with  the  utmost  patience  and  indififer- 
ence ;  and  upon  one  of  his  companions  saying,  '*  Well,  I  would  not  stand  that,''  the  great 
ciant  said,  **  Well,  what  would,  you  have  me  to  do  ?  It  pleases  she,  and  it  don't  hurt  me.'^ 
Well,  Mr.  Chairman,  I  think  we  may  say,  if  it  pleasea  these  gentlemen  of  the  Anthropo- 
logical Society,  let  them  have  such  talk  among  themselves — it  does  not  hurt  us ;  we  do  not 
feel  the  stroke ;  and  we  can  go  on  our  course  utterly  unimpeded  and  unretarded  by  their 
attempt  to  assail  us.  In  conclusion  (for  I  desire  to  keep  my  word  with  the  Meeting),  I 
would  simply  offer  to  the  friends  here  a  word  of  eooouragement  and  exhortation.  I  think 
everything,  in  the  providenoe  of  God,  encourages  ua  to  go  forward  with  renewed  zeal 
and  incTMaed  energy  in  thia  great  and  glorious  work.  Go  forward,  then,  ye  friends  of 
the  Missionary  cause !     Forward,  ye  soldiers  of  the  Cross  1    Ye  foltow  a  banner  which

of  heaven,  and  sweet  aa  the  music  of  angels,  **  The  kingdoms  of  this  world  haye  become 
the  kingdoms  of  our  Lord  and  of  His  Christ,  and  He  ahall  reign  for  ever  aad 
•var." 

The  Resolution  was  carried  unanimously. 

The  Chairman  : — I  am  told  that  the  next  Resolution  has  reference  to  the  new  Missionsry 
Ship ;  and  I  have  therefore  to  ask  you  to  be  kind  enough  to  remain  to  hear  those  who  hate 
to  move  and  second  it,  I  have  no  doubt  you  will  do  so  when  I  tell  you  that  it  vriU  be 
moved  by  the  Rev.  Dr.  Edmond,  and  seconded  by  the  Rev.  J.  Macgowan,  a  Missionaiy 
from  China. 

The  Rby.  Da.  Eomono: — ^The  other  evening,  Mr.  Chairman,  I  heard  an  emiaeat 
minister  of  this  great  City  with  playful  pathos  deplore  the  very  great  dryncM  of  the 
resolution  entrusted  to  his  hands.  So  extremely  dry  he  depicted  it  to  be,  that  it  wti 
not  possible,  by  any  amount  of  skill,  to  extract  a  single  atom  of  sentiment  from  it;  therefore, 
he  took  leave  to  hand  it  over  to  the  aeconder,  and  Walked  right  away  from  it.  My  dillicilty. 
as  I  am  sure  this  audience  already  understand  from  the  announcement  which  haa  been  msde, 
is  of  a  totally  opposite  sort.  I  have  got  a  text,  like  many  to  be  found  in  the  blessed  Book 
from  which  ministers  of  the  Gospel  select  their  themes,  which  is  such  that  ao  soon  as  it 
shall  be  read,  every  hearer  will  say,  **  If  there  be  a  particle  of  soul  in  the  preacher,  he  will 
kindle  at  that  text ;  if  there  be  a  single  grain  of  sympathy  with  poetry  in  all  his  soul,  be 
vrill  bloom  into  poetry  in  connection  with  that  text."  For,  as  you  have  said,  Mr.  ChaJnoss, 
this  Resolution  bears  reference  to  the  efforts  of  the  children  of  this  country  and  of  tbe 
South  Sea  Islands  in  purchasing  a  successor  to  the  perished  *'  John  Williams  "  Missionsry 
Ship.  I  am  almost  afraid  to  read  it,  it  is  so  beautiful  I  When  you  hear  it,  you  wiU  %eir 
me  out  when  I  say  it  is  as  lovely  as  one  of  those  South  Sea  Islands  themselves ;  bat  I  sa 
afraid,  like  tbe  isle  on  the  shores  on  which  the  '*  John  Williams  "  was  wrecked,  it  will 
prove  the  island  Danger  to  me  if  I  venture  to  expound  it.  My  only  chance  of  escape,  of 
'  **  plucking  from  this  nettle  Danger  the  flower  Safety,"  is  to  say  that  there  are  two 
other  Resolutions  besides  this  on  the  paper,  and  that  it  is  nearly  two  o'dodc  li 
vrill  be  out  of  the  question,  therefore,  to  attempt  a  full  elucidation  of  this  most  lovelf 
Resolution  I  and  I  shall  ask  you  to  believe  that  if  I  had  but  had  tbe  time  I  shoald 
have  handled  it  roost  gloriously.  Just  before  I  read  it  let  me  give  a  little  bit  of 
proof  to  support  this  claim,  upon  what  might  seem  rather  your  credulity  than  your  fsitb, 
if  you  will  pardon  a  slight  cursory  reminiscence  that  is  very  pleasant  to  myself.  I  ^ 
sure  Dr.  Tidman  could  know  nothing  about  it^  and  yet,  frightened  aa  I  an  to 
encounter  this  Resolution,  I  should  have  been  sorry,  for  a  certain  personal  remeosbraaos  of 
my  own,  not  to  have  had  something  to  do  with  it,  on  the  supposition  that  I  waa  to  have  the 
honour  of  being  on  this  platform  at  all.  Because  this  is  not  the  first  Miasfon  Ship  I  have  M 
some  connection  with.  The  Church  of  which  1  am  a  minister,  like  other  Churches,  beUersi 
and  still  believes,  that  you  will  not  make  West  Africa  worse  by  importing  Christtanitj  ioto  it* 
So  she  went  to  Calabar,  and  founded  there  a  Christian  Mission  {  ay,  and  took  possesnoa  of 
the  territory  in  the  name  of  the  Lord,  as  Abraham  took  possession  of  the  promised  kad,  bf 
burying  her  fallen  missionaries  in  the  soil.  We  purchased  there  our  Maepelah,  pledge  tot 
the  whole  conUnent,  which  shall  yet  stretch  out  its  hands  to  Ood :  and  it  was  thought  tfait 
we  should  be  much  the  better  for  a  ship  in  connection  with  our  Mission,  espedally  to  tske 
the  Missionary,  when  he  waa  sick  with  the  influences  of  the  climate,  out  to  the  isle  lyings 
the  west  of  the  bay,  where  he  might  gain  recruited  strength  to  return  to  his  work.  So  ^ 
Editor  of  our  **  Juvenile  Magazine  "  put  the  idea  before  the  children*  We  were  very  ne^ 
in  our  expectations }  we  were  not  a  very  numerous  body,  and  we  thought  that  if  they  p^ 
us  a  thousand  pounds  they  would  do  well,  and  we  should  be  able  lo  acoMnplish  the  (^ 
with  this  help  in  some  other  way.  We  asked  for  a  thousand,  they  gave  us  dtooaaads  DOft 
-4hree  thousand  poands  I    So  we  bought  tbe  Mission  Ship,    And  bow  for  the  psrtosrf 


FOR  ivvE,  ISes.  191 

eminifcenca,  whiefa  I  a|Kdofis6  for  nentloniDg.  Tha  idea  of  tha  abildran  {mrohaaiiig  tha 
ff  itsion  Ship  struck  upon  a  chord  which  was  then  in  my  braaet ;  I  do  not  know  what  has 
•ecome  of  it  now :  I  htTO  little  time  to  search  for  it ;  but  I  used  to  string  together,  not  the 
ofty,  but,  to  myself*  the  pleasant  rhymes.    On  my  way,  therefore,  as  a  Mbsionary  deputy, 

0  visit  the  Churches  of  one  of  the  presbyteries  of  the  denomination  there,  I  strung  together 
.  few  lines  and  made  a  song  about  the  Mission  Ship,  which  I  repeated  with  some  acceptance 
t  one  of  the  meetings,  and  which  was  afterwards  sung  by  many  juTcnile  choirs  at  home, 
ind  far  away  in  the  West  Indies,  where  they  loved  It  for  the  sake  of  the  Missionaries  who 
vere  going  out  to  the  country  from  which  their  swarthy  fathers  had  been  taken  as  slaves 
lefore.  Now,  if  you  please,  believe  that  I  could  have  blossomed  into  a  song,  if  you  like,  if 
L  had  only  had  the  time*  And  now  for  the  resolution.  (Cries  of  '*  Song.")  Tou  are  very 
cind  in  requesting  the  song.  If  you  please,  I  will  take  it,  as  they  say  in  the  north,  ad 
wucmdum,  I  will  remember  your  kind  request,  and,  perhaps,  if  the  mood  comes,  I  may 
veave  a  song  about  the  subject,  but  I  cannot  just  now.  The  Resolution  is  a  song  itself.  It 
laya:— 

"  That,  ahhongh  this  MeeUng  sincerely  laments  the  wreck  of  the  Hlfslonary  Ship '  John  Wllltams,' 
t  thankftilly  aoknowledgea  the  proteotion  and  superintendinnf  care  of  Divine  Proiidenoe  throtiKhont 
ler  long  coarse  of  perilous  service,  exceeding  twenty  years,  and  in  the  mercifhl  deliverance  or  her 
iRjisenRers  and  crew.  Bnt,  with  nnosual  admiratioa  and  delight,  the  Meeting  acknowledges  the 
irompt  and  generous  efforts  of  the  javenile  classes  generally,  and  of  the  children  of  oar  Sabbath 
Schools  in  particular,  to  raise  funds  ibr  the  pnrchase  of  a  new  Missionary  Ship,  efforts  Which,  by 
GK>d*tf  blessing,  have  proved  abundantly  suocessfoL" 

Yea,  abundantly  successful,  as  the  Beport  read  by  Dr.  Tidman,  which  contained  so  eloquent 
and  touching  a  speech  upon  this  Resolution,  did  very  clearly  show,  when  it  told  us  that 
nigh  ten  thousand  pounds  had  been  put  into  the  treasury  by  the  gifu  of  the  little  children. 
Now,  I  shall  simply  attempt  the  utterance  of  two  or  three  "  notes,"  as  Matthew  Henry 
might  say,  upon  this  Resolution.  And  the  first  thing  I  have  to  say  is  this :  we  almost 
invariably  and  inevitably,  I  suppose,  glide  into  personification  when  we  speak  about  a  ship. 

1  see,  accordingly,  in  my  Resolution,  first  of  all,  a  finished  biography  ;  and  I  have  not  a 
better  wish  for  myself,  or  for  any  man,  than  that  I  may  live  the  life  the  ship  **  John 
Williams  "  lived.  She  did  what  she  could.  You  might  say  of  that  gallant  vessel :  she, 
indMd,  like  the  Lord  she  served,  occupied  her  whole  life  in  going  to  and  fro  doing  good, 
and  fell  at  last,  if  you  will  allow  the  expression,  a  martyr  in  the  cause.  Look  at  that  finished 
life,  and  say,  '*  Even  so  let  mine  be  filled  up,  be  it  for  twenty  years,  or  ten,  or  more,  or  less 
—be  it  so  filled  up,  going  about  doing  good."  The  second  '*  note "  I  have  to  utter  in 
connection  with  this  is  to  the  following  effect.  Never  say  about  any  event  that  it  is 
disastrous ;  never  say  about  any  occurrence  in  connection  with  the  cause  of  Christianity, 
*'  that  is  against  me."  I  believe  there  is  not  an  occurrence  transpires  that  is  not,  in  the 
hand  of  the  blessed  God,  working  together  for  the  advancement  of  His  own  cause ;  and  I 
say,  the  Society  now  can  no  more  afford  to  do  without  the  martyred  ship  than  she  could  in 
a  higher  walk  do  without  the  memory  of  the  martyred  Missionary  whose  name  she  bore. 
Why,  what  has  happened  ?  Has  the  loss  of  this  ship  been  against  the  Mission  ?  Take  it 
in  its  lowest  region  of  profit  and  loss>  what  is  the  state  of  the  aecount  ?  You  have  lost  a 
ship  ?  I  do  not  know  what  the  value  of  it  was  in  pounds,  shillings,  and  pence,  but  I  will 
tell  you  what  you  have  in  the  room  of  it !  twelve  thousand  pounds  sterling.  That  is  a  very 
good  eichange,  I  take  it,  for  the  *'  John  Williams,''  in  regcrd  to  value.  But  that  is  the  very 
least  of  your  gain.  What  else  have  you  gained  ?  There  is  no  end  of  enumeration  here. 
I  will  tell  you  first  of  all  what  your  own  instinctive  appreciation  of  a  certain  part  of  the 
Report  on  this  head  must  have  told  you :  that  you  have  gained  a  wonderful  instance  of  the 
working,  kind  and  gracious,  of  the  Divine  Providencf .  God  keeps  His  hand  over  the  vessel 
till,  so  to  say,  it  could  be  safely  wreoked^tlU  it  could  go  to  pieces  on  the  reef,  and  the 
crew  and  the  passengera  not  only  be  saved,  but  harboured  in  the  Christian  bosoms  of  the 
very  men  who,  in  their  previous  savage  state,  would  have  been  their  murderers.  The 
*'  John  Williams  "  mast  first  carry  the  Gospel  to  the  island,  that,  when  she  perishes  on  its 
shores,  her  crew  and  pasaengera  may  be  safe  and  welcome.  What  else  have  you  gained  ? 
The  moment  the  ship  is  lost,  what  is  the  ontburst  of  feeling  regarding  It  in  the  South  ? 
The  children  of  that  island — Danger — and  sure  it  must  be  a  lovely  island  to  have  such 
children  in  it  say,  **  We  most  have  another  ship,"  and  they  give  good  earnest  by  making  the

length  and  bretdth  of  the  land,  and,  like  an  army  of  volonteert  for  the  defence  «f 
their  assailed  coantry,  the  children,  with  one  heart  and  soul,  oome  to  the  reecoe^  and 
your  treasury  is  weighted  this  day  with  nigh  ten  thousand  pounds.  That  is  what  yon  have 
gsined  by  losing  the  ship  **  John  Williams.''  Then,  further  than  that,  look  at  the  grawi 
spectacle  presented  by  this  gift  of  the  children.  We  numbered  the  children  that  contribated 
to  the  United  Prebyterian  Ship,  and  we  found  that  there  were  120,000  separate  cootributon, 
therefore  120,000  shareholders  in  the  ship :  haTing.as  Jack  said,  who  gave  his  penny  to  the 
Missionary  Society  and  went  to  the  Meeting  to  hear  what  they  had  done  with  it,  '*  a  stake 
in  the  concern."  And  that  is  a  gain  scarcely  to  be  counted.  There  is  not  a  child  of  afl 
that  host  but  must  feel  this  day  somewhat  more  drawn  to  this  magnificent  cause  that  shall 
never  die  till  it  has  completed  its  work,  because  he  did  something  in  purchasing  thin  Misstea 
Ship.  I  should  like  to  see  them  gathered  all  together— I  should  like  wondrou&ly  well  if  I 
could  take  them  all  down  to  stony  Aberdeen,  which  is  to  have  the  honour  of  sending  this 
ship  to  sea — 1  should  like  to  have  the  whole  firm,  the  whole  company  gathered  together  at 
the  launch.  And  if  our  beloved  Queen  should  chance  as  that  time  to  be  in  her  loved  Bal- 
moral, we  should  make  suit  for  Her  Majesty's  presence  on  the  occasion ;  and  I  am  «ve 
that  she  who,  with  her  motherly  heart  and  tender  sympathies,  is  said  to  have  wept  in  the 
presence  of  80,000  children  singing  the  national  anthem,  would  not  feel  unmoved  in  the 
presence  of  such  a  gathered  company  watching  the  launch  of  then:  own  good  Mission  Ship. 
I  am  right  sure  at  least  of  this,  that  not  the  British  Queen  herself,  in  all  her  navy  with  iu 
'*  Warriors,"  and  **  Black  Princea,''  and  wonders  of  the  deep,  and  not  all  the  merchants 
she  rules  in  their  magnificent  fleet,  could  show  a  vessel  on  which  the  eye  of  Christian  phi- 
lanthropy could  rest  with  half  so  much  delight,  none  so  gallant  and  goodly  to  see^  as  ihe 
Mission  bark  going  away  out  to  the  South  Seaa  to  do  the  work  that  the  perished  *'  John 
Williams  "  had  done.  What  may  be  the  fate  of  the  second  Mission  Ship  i  do  not  know: 
whether  it  is  to  be  a  second  **  John  Williams— whether,  like  this  first,  with  a  sort  of 
poetical  propriety  about  Ihe  fate,  it  scatters  its  timbers  and  spars  over  the  waves  where  it 
has  carried  to  and  fro  the  Missionary  and  the  Bible,  and  that  which  waa  making  the  Soatk 
Sea  Isles  to  blossom  in  the  presence  of  heaven ;  or  whether  it  shall  come  back  in  a  good 
old  age  and  have  its  keel  set  up  in  some  grand  Missionary  museum  to  be  looked  at  aai 
admired  by  the  children  of  all  euccessive  generations.  Whether  or  no,  without  profibetic 
skill,  I  venture  this  to  say :  the  glory  of  the  latter  ship  shall  be  greater  than  the  glory  of 
the  former.  God  will  not  let  his  cause  go  back  in  the  South  Sea  Islands ;  and  it  may  be 
that  this  ship  one  day  shall  come  back  to  us  with  her  banner  uplifted,  and  thereon  ihia  in- 
scription :  **  The  isles  have  waited  for  His  law,"  to  tell  us  that  there  is  ne'er  a  green  spot 
in  ail  that  lovely  Polynesia  but  is  filled  with  the  knowledge  of  the  Lord,  as  the  waters  ooter 
the  sea. 

The  Rkv.  John  Macgowan,  (Missionary  from  China): — Mr.  Chairman,  Christian 
Fi  lends,  I  rise  to  second  the  Resolution  which  has  been  so  eloquently  proposed  toyoa  by 
Dr.  Edmond,  and,  if  Dr.  Edmond  found,  as  he  has  declared,  so  much  poetry  in  the  Reso- 
tion,   I   feel  that  to  me  China  has  infinitely  more,  and  I  shall  thovfore,  without  any 
further  reference  to  the  Resolution,  direct  your  attention  to  that  country,  and  shall  present 
before  your  notice  some  of  those  glorious  facts  which  come  home  to  the  Christian  mind, 
which  encourage  the  Missionary  in  bis  work,  and  which  tend  to  stimulate  Christians  to  go 
on  year  by  year,  contributing  towards  sending  the  Gospel  to  that  great  country.    Chins 
merits  the  sympathy  of  sll  Christians,  from  the  fact  that  it  contains  four  hundred  miUioBS 
of  souls.     If  the  angels  in  heaven  rejoice  over  one  sinner  that  is  added  to  the  Chnrch  of 
Christ,  surely  Christians  in  England  should  not  view  with  apathy  or  with  indifference  that 
great  country,  where  so  many  millions  of  immortal  souls  are  passing  on  year  by  yesu:  withoiA 
any  knowledge  of  the  Gospel.    There  is  an  additional  reason,  however,  why  that  co«utry 
should  claim  our  sympathy.   There  are  to  be  found  there,  and  more  especially  in  the  sontherii 
parts,  a  vast  number  of  thinking  men,  and  in  ancient  times  China  has  produced  men  who 
have  distinguibhed  themselves  by  their  writings,  and  who  have  discussed  some  of  the  most 
difficult  problems  in  reference  to  human  nature.     No  doubt  the  coudusions  at  which  tbey 
have  arrived  are  but  too  often  very  far  from  the  truth ;  but  still  I  think  they  are  no  less 
worthy  of  our  respect.     It  is  a  very  remarkable  circumstance  that,  in  common  with  the 
philosophers  of  the  West,  there  have  been  men  there  who  have  endeavoured  to  find  u 
elixir  of  immortality  by  which  men  might  be  secured  from  death,  and  he  able  to  pass  is 
eternal  existence  without  undergoing  that  dissolution,  from  which  nature  in  every  regioB«f 
the  world  invariably  shrinks.    Notwithstanding  all  this,  it  is  true  that  in  China  there  '» 
heathenism  in  its  lowest  forms,  that  the  darkness  which  broods  over  the  land  ia  noore  tkn

find  auperttiiioii  of  the  grotsett  kind  standing  alongside  of  shrewdness  and  intelligence ;  and 
whilst  great  immoraHty  and  great  rice  are  prevalent  all  over  the  Empire,  there  has  always 
been  tlirooghoat  the  laud  an  intense  appreciation  of  chastity  and  virtue.    There  are  two 
facts  w^tiich  appear  to  me  to  elevate  China  higher  than  any  other  heathen  country  that  has  ever 
existed.    The  first  fact  is,  that  there  has  never  been  any  deification  of  vice ;  no  Venus  of  the 
Greeks  has  ever  reigned  over  China,  and  none  of  the  impurity  which  stains  the  annals  and 
the  books  of  India  has  ever  existed  in  the  Chinese  mythology.    The  next  fact  is,  that,  for 
more  than  two  thousand  years,  there  has  heen  no  human  sacrifice.    Whilst  all  over  the 
world,  and  even  in  our  own  country,  human  sacrifices  were  being  immolated  to  offended 
deities,  in  China,  many  hundreds  of  years  before,  they  had  learned  to  abstain  from  the 
practice  of  that  from  which  every  Christian  shrinks.  xNow  about  our  successes  there.     We 
have  gathered  into  the  Church  of  Christ  upwards  of  three  thousand  members.    Now  I  wish 
to  aay  tLat  this  statement  cannot  give  you  an  adequate  idea  of  what  has  been  accomplished 
iii  China.    There  is  an  amount  of  unreported  work,  such  as  we  cannot  grasp  and  embody 
in  a  Report,  which  is  fully  equal  in  importance  to  anything  that  can  be  prnented  to  you 
in  a  definite  form.    Why,  I  have  known  of  villages  upon  which  we  have  come  accidentally, 
and  the  knowledge  of  the  Lord  has  gone  before  us.    We  have  found  inhabitants  of  villages 
observing  the  Sabbath  (for  in  China  they  have  no  Sunday),  whilst  the  Missionary  was 
iincor.acious  that  Christianity  had  penetrated  so  far.    But  I  can  point  distinctly  to  these 
three  thousand  members ;   and  when  1  think  of  the  position  in  which  these  people  are 
placed,  of  the  idolatry  around  them,  of  all  the  influences  which  are  brought  to  bear  upon 
them,  I  am  amazed,  looking  at  it  from  a  merely  human  point  of  view,  that  there  is  a  single 
one  to  come  out  and  profess  the  Gospel  of  Christ.    1  can  understand  it,  however,  when 
I  think  of  the  nature  and  the  wants  of  the  soul,  and  how  adapted  the  Gospel  is  in  every 
respect  to  fill  the  vacuum  that  exists  in  every  heart.    And  now  I  will  give  yon  one'  or  two 
facts  in  reference  to  our  Ckiristians ;  and,  as  I  speak,  there  is  one  good  man  that  rites  up 
immediately  before  my  mind — a  man  whose  face,  whenever  and  wherever  you  meet  him, 
is  always  covered  with  a  smile.     Why,  I  am  almost  afraid  to  tell  you,  lest  you  should 
think  I  was  exaggerating,  how  many  that  single  individual  has  brought  into  the  Church. 
Looking  at  his  past  history  yon  find  that  he  was  a  gambler,  a  terror  to  the  neighbourhood 
in  which  he  lived.     Now  he  is  **  clothed  and  in  his  right  mind,"  and  his  great  joy  is  to  go 
about  the  country'  telling  his  neighbours  and  friends  of  the  great  salvation.    The  change 
which  is  to  be'effected  in  the  character  of  those  who  join  us  is  not  a  merely  nominal  one. 
No  sooner  do  they  throw  down  the  weapons  of  their  rebellion  than  they  buckle  on  the 
Christian  armour,  and  aid  us  in  the  conflict,  not  content  by  any  means  to  stand  atide  as 
idle  spectators  of  the  struggle.    One  of  the  most  pleasing  features  about  our  Christians 
in  China  is  the  fact  that  the  very  moment  they  become  Christians  they  cannot  keep  the 
knowledge  they  have  acquired  to  themselves.    They  must  go  about  wherever  they  have  an 
opportunity  and  tell  it  to  others  ;  and  thus,  through  the  exertions  of  our  members,  great 
accessions  are  often  made  to  our  Church.    It  is  a  source  of  rejoicing  to  me  that  many  of 
the  most  splendid  triumphs  of  the  Gospel  in  China  have  not  been  effected  through  the 
instrumentality  of  European  Missionaries,  hut  by  the  natives  of  the  country  themselves. 
Now  let  roe  give  you  the  case  of  a  family  belonging  to  our  Church  in  Amoy.    The  family 
to  which  I  am  about  to  refer  is  a  very  influential  one,  becanse  of  its  example  of  consistency 
and  devotion.    The  first  member  who  was  brought  to  Christ  was  the  mothsr.     She  was 
passing  by  our  chapel  one  Sunday,  and,  hearing  the  converts  singing,  she  was  very  much 
attracted,  and  came  in  and  listened.    After  the  service  was  over  she  said  she  was  very  much 
impressed  by  what  she  had  heard;  she  felt  that  she  must  come  and  hear  again  ;  she  came 
on  succeeding  Sundays,  and  at  length  determined  to  abandon  idolatry.    She  then  told  her 
eldest  son  her  determination,  and  Sf  id.  '*  I  am  very  anxious  to  become  a  Christian  ;  I  am 
going  to  join  the  Church.''    The  son  (who  told  me  the  fctory)  said  to  her,  **  What  do  you 
mean  by  becoming  a  foreigner,  by  leaving  all  your  Chinese  associations,  all  your  habits,  and 
taking  up  with  these  Europeans  ?"    The  mother  replied,  **  You  had  better  go  to  the  chapel 
yourself,  and  you  can  hear  the  doctrine  which  is  preached  there;  if  you  find  anything 
objectionable  we  can  discuss  the  matter,  and  T  need  not  join  these  people  :  go  yourself  and 
listen.'*    Well,  the  man  told  me  that  he  went,  and  the  first  Sunday  he  could  find  nothing 
at  all  to  object  to.    He  then  resolved  to  go  on  the  following  Sunday  to  try  and  fi^d  some- 
thing to  take  hold  of  by  which  he  might  be  able  to  shake  bis  mother's  resolution.    The 
result  was,  that  after  a  few  Sundays  the  man  himself  became  a  Christian,  and  now  he  is  a 
deacon  of  our  Church.    The  second  son  was  as  violent  in  his  opposition,  but  ho  came  on 
successive  Sundays,  and  also  became  a  Christian.    There  was  a  great  difficulty,  however, 
ahont  receiving  this  man,  as  he  was  an  opium-smoker ;  and  yon  have  no  idea  of  the  influence 
which  opium  has  in  deteriorathig  the  Chinese  character.    When  a  roan  begins  to  take  oplnm

I  fdel  u  tlioH^  be  wir^  lost  I  lose  til  confidence  in  bin  antil  he  ooibm  viUrfa  tbt 
influence  of  the  Goepel ;  and  as  I  look  at  the  nutnbert  of  reformed  opiom-tmoken  that  are 
coDsiBtent  members  of  oar  Church  I  connt  them  amongst  the  noblest  trophiea  of  the 
Gospel.  The  man  was  so  impressed  with  the  excellence  of  the  truths  he  bad  heard  that  be 
applied  for  Christian  baptism  ;  but  he  was  told  that  before  he  could  be  admitted  be  most 
gif  e  up  the  pernicioas  habit  in  which  be  was  indulging.  The  man  was  to  sincere  that  he 
went  to  our  hospital  at  Amoy,  and  after  a  long  coarse  of  training  gave  it  np,  and  he  is  now 
one  of  our  native  preachers.  One  bj  one  all  the  family  baTC  become  Christians,  and  are 
exercising  a  nsost  powerful  and  glorious  influence  in  the  neighbourhood  in  which  they  lire. 
My  friends,  Christianity  does  not  coHe  to  those  who  are  easily  brought  within  its  pak. 
Grace  does  not  come  and  win  conquests  where  they  are  easily  obtained ;  it  goes  into  the  high 
places  of  the  field ;  it  comes  in  contact  with  those  whom  nothing  but  Christianity  can  coiiTert ; 
and  we  have  numberleu  instances  of  its  great  power  under  the  most  difficult  and  adver* 
circumstances.  It  comes  to  the  opium- smoker,  as  I  have  told  you,  and  by  its  iafloenoe 
on  his  soul  he  is  enabled  to  r^nquish  the  habit.  It  touches  the  heart  of  the  Buddhist  priest, 
a  man  saturated  with  ignorance  and  superstition,  attached  to  his  own  religions  aysten, 
and  called  by  every  kind  of  association  to  stand  aloof  from  Christianity,  and  under  Ha  more 
than  magic  power  he  casts  aside  his  emblems  of  idolatry,  and  becomes  a  worshipper  of  the 
true  and  living  God.  And  last  but  not  least,  it  pierces  the  souls  of  the  disciples  of  Con- 
fucius so,  that  these  very  men,  notwithstanding  all  theUr  predilections  in  favour  of  him,  are 
willing  to  Uke  him  down  from  the  high  pedestal  on  which  he  has  stood  so  long,  and  te 
elevate  Christ  in  his  stead.  And  now,  as  the  time  is  passing,  let  me  refer  for  a  moment  to 
the  influence  of  the  Bible.  We  do  not  go  to  China,  my  friends,  with  any  well  prmred 
treatises  to  overthrow  the  arguments  of  the  Confocionists,  hot  we  go  as  in  times  of  old,  the 
preacher  and  the  book,  and  with  the  great  motto  which  anim^ed  8t.  Paul  of  old,  **  to 
know  nothing  save  Jesus  Christ  and  Him  crucified.''  What  a  grand  old  book  the  Bible 
is  I  It  comes  to  the  world  without  any  title-page  or  without  any  preface  deprecating  the 
hostility  of  those  whom  it  reproves,  and  to  every  kindred  of  the  earth  it  speaks  bat  the  one 
language.  I  am  a  firm  believer  in  the  Divine  authority  of  the  Bible,  and  I  believe  that  all 
the  supporters  of  this  society  are  equally  strong  in  their  belief  as  to  its  Divine  character, 
But  if  it  were  possible  that  my  faith  in  this  book  could  be  strengthened,  it  would  have  been 
by  what  I  have  witnessed  of  its  influence  over  the  Chinese.  I  have  seen  by  its  power  over 
the  hearts  of  the  Chinese,  when  its  words  have  been  preached  to  them,  an  incontesUble 
evidence  of  its  divinity.  As  I  have  stood  in  my  chapel  and  preached  from  some  of  our 
Lord's  parables,  I  have  invariably  found  the  attention  at  once  arrested.  Many  a  time  have 
I  witnessed  the  wonderful  effect  that  the  explanation  of  the  parable  of  the  Prodigal  Son  has 
produced.  You  have  no  idea  how  intensely  a  Chinese  father  loves  his  son,  and  what  his 
feelings  would  be  were  he  to  leave  him  and  go  to  a  foreign  country.  I  have  often  beea 
asked,  "How  ever  could  you  consent  to  leave  your  father,  and  come  away  audi  a 
long  distance  to  dwell  amongst  strangers  ? "  The  parable  excites  their  inteneest 
sympathy,  and  when  the  lesson  embodied  in  the  parable  is  applied  to  their  own 
individual  cases,  teaching  them  of  the  great  love  of  their  heavenly  Father  and 
the  duty  of  the  erring  sons  to  return  to  their  Father's  home,  a  greater  im- 
pression it  made  than  wonld  have  been  produced  by  the  most  learned  arguments. 
Let  roe  now  give  you  one  fact  illustrative  of  the  singular  power  which  the  Bible  alone  exerts 
wherever  it  goes.  *  And  I  may  say  that  I  should  in  all  cases  prefer  that  the  preacher  ahoaU 
go  wherever  the  Book  goes,  in  order  to  prevent  mistakes  or  misconceptions  which  may 
naturally  arise,  because  there  are  many  passages  in  it  which  the  Chinese  cannot  possibly 
understand,  and  many  references  whieb  they  cannot  investigate.  Still,  there  is  an  inharent 
power  in  the  Word  of  God,  which  is  able  to  carry  conviction  and  produce  the  moat  wonderfBl 
results.  Some  seven  or  eight  years  ago,  during  the  tea  season,  a  person  came  away  from 
the  interior  of  the  country  to  one  of  the  Urge  ports  in  China  to  dispose  of  his  tea.  After 
he  had  transacted  his  business,  and  the  day  before  be  intended  to  return  to -his  home,  be 
was  walking  up  and  down  the  streets  of  the  city,  when  he  came  opposite  to  one  of  the 
chapels,  over  the  front  of  which  was  inscribed,  *'  The  Hall  of  the  True  God."  Struck  by 
the  title,  the  roan  entered,  and  remained  until  the  Missionary  had  done  preaching.  At  the 
conclusion  of  the  service,  the  man  came  up  to  the  Missionsry,  and  said  that  he  regretted  he 
was  obliged  to  return  home  on  the  morrow,  as  he  should  have  liked  to  have  heard  oftore  ef 
the  doctrine  to  which  he  had  listened  with  so  much  pleasure.  He  asked  the  Missionaiy, 
however,  to  give  him  one  of  the  books  out  of  which  he  had  been  preaching,  and,  as  it 
would  Uke  him  a  good  many  days  to  reach  his  home,  he  would  read  it  by  the  way,  and  ha 
thus  might  be  able  to  learn  more  of  the  doctrine.  The  book  out  ef  which  the  Missionary 
had  been  preadang  was  the  New  Testament,  which  he  at  onee  gave  him.    He  spoke  to  hfan 


FOR  JUKE,  1866.  196 

for  a  time  of  some  of  the  main  doctrines  of  Chrittianlty,  and  gave  him  some  general  direc- 
tions how  he  should  read  the  book.    The  man  departed,  and  the  matter  was  forgotten,  for 
we  very  frequently  have  people  coming  to  us  to  ask  for  tracts  and '  Bibles,  who  disappear, 
and  we  bear  nothing  further  of  them.    The  year  after,  however,  about  the  same  time  of  the 
year,  the  man  returned  to  the  Missionary  and  told  him  the  influence  that  this  single  book 
had  had  upon  himself  and  his  friends  at  home.     His  home,  he  said,  was  situated  in  a  large 
▼alley,  which  valley  was  entered  by  a  narrow  opening  in  the  rocks,  and,  in  consequence  of 
its  peculiar  position,  the  rebels  had  not  been  able  to  capture  the  place,  although  they  had  been 
all  mund  abont  it,  devastating  the  country.     When  he  got  home  it  became  noised  abroad 
in  the  valley  that  ha  had  brought  with  him  a  book  belonging  to  the  Western  foreigners,  a 
book  containing  doctrines  of  the  highest  and  snblimest  kind,  and  revealing  things  that 
(Confucius  had  never  taught.    Several  of  the  literary  men,  a  great  number  of  whom,  resided 
in  the  valley,  came  to  borrow  the  book  that  they  might  read  it  for  themselves,  and  were  so 
anxious  to  possess  it  that  they  wrote  down  their  names,  that  each  might  have  it  in  his 
turn.    The  anxiety,  however,  to  obtain  the  book  became  so  universal  that  they  had  a 
grand  meeting  of  all  the  literai7  men  in  the  valley  to  discuss  what  should  be  done.    And 
you  mav  conceive,  sir,  what  a  wonderful  meeting  that  was.     Imagine  these  people,  cut 
oflT  for  thousands  of  years  firom  any  knowledge  of  the  true  God,  now  assembled  around 
the  only  book  that  could  give  them  any  definite  or  precise  information  about  the  way  of 
life.    They  determined  to  take  the  book  to  pieces,  and  that  each  one  of  the  literary  men 
should  take  home  with  him  a  few  leaves  of  it ;  that  he  should  copy  a  certain  number  of  these 
leaves;  and  that  they  should  all  meet  again  at  an  appointed  time.    This  they  did,  and,  after 
putting  together  again  the  original  copy,  they  made  up  a  great  number  of  volumes  out  of 
the  leaves  they  had  copied,  and  each  man  went  home  with  a  volume  of  bis  own.    The  man 
also  stated  that  the  reading  of  the  book  had  produced  a  great  impression  upon  many  of 
those  who  had  read  it,  and  he  believed  that  if  the  missionary  would  accompany  him  home 
and  preach  to  them,  that  »  goodly  number  would  enbrace  Christianity.    Now,  sir,  from 
what!  have  stated  it  will  be  evident  to  all  that  the  effort*  of  Missionaries  in  China  have  not 
been  unattended  with  success ;  but  that,  wherever  the  Gospel  has  been  preached,  it  has 
proved  itself  in  many  an  instance  to  he  the  "  power  of  God  unto  salvation.''    Christianity, 
sir,  is  held  in  the  greatest  respect,  even  by  those  who  refuse  to  embraoe  it,  haeawse  of  the 
power  it  exercises  over  the  lives  of  those  who  becone  its  disciples.    The  great  and  distin- 
guishing vice  of  China  is  flying.    The  Chinese  are,  J  believe,  amongst  the  greatest  liars  in 
the  wond ;  but  the  national  conscience  has  not  become  so  seared  as  to  be  unable  to  appre- 
ciate that  teaching  which  transforms  into  truthful  men  those  who  for  many  a  long  year  have 
been  accustomed  to  lying  and  deception  of  almost  every  kiud.     I  have  often  stood  and 
listened,  when  the  word  of  some  one  of  our  converts  has  been  called  in  question,  and  have 
heard  some  bystander  say,  ''This  man  is  a  worshipper  of  God  ;  he  dare  not  tell  lies."     I 
have  two  cases  before  my  mind,  in  which  mandarins,  in  public  court,  declared  Hhat  the  con- 
duct of  the  followers  of  Jesus  was  more  to  be  applauded  than  that  of  their  idolatrous  coun- 
trymen.   And  last  year,  when  an  attack  was  made  upon  the  churches  in  Foocbow  by  an 
infuriated  mob,  after  the  riot  was  quelled,  one  of  the  disciples  of  Confucius  wrote  a  small 
pamphlet,  in  which  he  condemned  the  conduct  of  the  people,  and  showed  that  the  followers 
of  Christ  were  highly  moral  and  worthy  of  the  respect  even  of  those  who  might  differ  from 
them  in  opinion.    My  friends,  these  things  encourage  us.    Remember,  however,  that  the 
work  before  us  is  still  greats    There  are  tew  Missionaries  in  that  great  land  in  comparison 
with  its  wants.    You  ought  to  be  encouraged  to  still  further  exertion  by  the  fact  that  the 
sending  out  of  Missionaries  to  China  is  not  a  permanent  matter.    I  believe  that  when  more 
considerable  numbers  of  the  Chinese  have  been  Christianised  they  will  become  the  great 
missionaries  of  the  East.     I  believe  they  have  the  energy,  the  ability,  and  the  desire  to  go 
far  and  wide  and  spread  the  Gospel  of  Christ    When  that  day  comes  we  shall  need  to  send 
but  few  Missionaries  to  China.     Our  duty  is  to  carry  the  torch  of  truth  to  China  ;  but  it 
must  be  native,  hands  that  shall  carry  it  over  hill  and  dale  throughout  the  length  and 
breadth  of  the  land,  until  every  home  has  been  illumined  by  its  light. 

The  collection  was  then  made. 

The  Rkv.  Enoch  Mellor  proposed  :— 

••That  the  Hon.  Arthu*  Kimnaibd,  MP.,  be  the  Treasurer,  that  the  Pev.  Dr.  Tidman  be  the 
I^oreign  Secretary,  and  that  a  gentleman,  hereafter  to  be  elected  by  the  Directors,  v^th  the  Ref- 
VVjs.  f'AULBKOTBn,  be  joint  Home  Secretaries  for  the  ensulngyear;  that  the  Directors  who  are  eligible 
lt>e  reappointed,  and  that  the  gentlemen  whose  names  have  been  transmitted  by  their  respective

Mr.  W.  D.  Wills,  of  Bristol,  seconded  the  Resolution,  which  was  nnanimoasly  adopted. 

Mb.  Dobbll: — There  is  onedaty  which  remains  to  be  performed,  without  which,  I  am 
sure,  howcTer  pleasant  and  delightful  and  cheering  the  proceedings  of  this  day  have  beea, 
you  would  not  go  away  with  the  feeling  that  they  were  complete.  I  rise  to 
moTe, — ^That  the  best  and  most  cordial  thanks  of  this  meeting  be  presented  to  those  gentle- 
men who  have  occupied  the  chair  this  day,  the  Hon.  Arthur  Kinnaird  and  Edward  Baines, 
Esq.-  You  need  not  one  word  from  me  in  reference  to  the  manner  in  which  they  have 
discharged  the  duties  they  have  so  kindly  undertaken,  or  the  extent  to  which  they  have 
aided  us  in  our  proceedings. 

Mr.  H.  Wright  :— I  am  glad  that  Mr.  Kinnaird  has  vacated  his  seat,  as  it  gives  me  the 
opportunity  of  saying  that  his  spirit  is  so  deeply  imbued  with  the  missionary  feeling  that  the 
occupation  of  the  chair  to  day  has  seemed  to  him  a  very  light  duty  ;  and  it  is,  indeed,  one 
of  the  least  of  the  services  that  he  has  rendered  to  this  Society.  From  the  first  moment 
that  be  became  treasurer,  and  even  before,  he  was  ready  to  render  us  any  service  in  his 
power,  and  circumstances  have  transpired  enabling  us.to  avail  ourselves  of  those  aervices, 
which  he  has  rendered  most  hesrtily  and  successfully. 

The  motion  was  unanimously  adopted. 

'  The  Ch  AIBMAN :  ~I  feel  that  almost  the  whole  of  the  gratitude  expressed  in  this  Resols- 
tion  belongs  to  my  friend  Mr.  Kinnaird,  and  scarcely  any  of  it  to  me.  For  that  portion  of 
your  thanks  which  you  have  been  so  good  as  to  express  to  me,  I  beg  to  express  my  sense 
of  obligation  to  you,  and  to  assure  you  that  I  feel,  every  time  I  attend  the  meetings  (^  the 
London  Missionary  Society,  more  and  more  convinced  of  the  vast,  mighty — I  might  almost 
say  everlasting — work  in  which  it  is  engaged.  I  am  sure  we  all  must  feel  to  the  end  of 
our  days  more  and  more  satisfied  that  we  are  engaged  in  a  work  which  it  will  be  a  happiness 
to  us  to  reflect  on  to  our  dying  day.

from  the  Report  by  the  Rev.  Wra.  Fairbrother.  In  furtherance  of  the  objects  of  the  meet-

INDIA. 

PBOPOSED  SRBCnOir  07  A  NBW  CHUBCH  AlTD  PASTOB's  HOUSE  FOB  THE  KATITE 
CHBISIIAirS  AT  BHOWAKTPOBE. 

The  intelligence  whicli  we  haye  to  lay  before  onr  readers  in  the  present 
19'amber  refers  to  subjects  of  great  missionary  interest,  yaried  in  their  cha- 
racter, but  seyerally  presenting  &cts  calculated  to  awaken  joy  and  thankfiil- 
nees,  hope  and  trust. 

The  fint  of  our  Indian  articles  refers  to  the  progress  of  our  Mission  at 
Showakipobe,  a  suburb  of  Calcittta,  where  our  chief  station  has  long  been 
established;  and  especially  to  the  origin  and  progress  of  the  Katiye  Christian 
Church,  which,  commencing  with  9ix  members  only  in  the  year  1846, 
amounted  eight  years  subsequently  to  forty y  the  congregation  having  also 
proportionately  multiplied  during  the  same  period. 

At  the  formation  of  this  little  Christian  community  they  were  in  a  state  of 
entire  dependence  upon  our  missionary  brethren,  not  only  for  instruction,  but 
for  the  exercise  of  benevolence  in  varied  forms.  Nwo^  as  will  appear  from 
the  address  subjoined,  they  have  learned  the  important  Christian  duty,  not  only 
cft  helping  themselves  to  the  extent  of  their  power,  but  also  of  supporting 
the  ordinances  of  Christ,  especially  by  contributions  to  the  support  of  their 
pastor.  SuBJO  Kumab  Ghose,  who  sustains  this  office,  is  one  of  themselves, 
redeemed  by  the  grace  of  God  from  the  power  of  idolatry,  and  prepared  by  a 
long  course  of  useM  and  Christian  training  for  the  exercise  of  the  ministry. 
Towards  the  salary  of  this  devoted  man  the  people  of  his  charge  raise  about 
£60  per  annum,  and  our  missionary  brethren  entertain  the  hope  that  the  day 
is  not  far  distant  when  the  Bhowanipore  Congregational  Church  will,  under 
the  tender  care  and  continued  blessing  of  its  great  Head,  become  entirely 
ielf-sapp<^ting  and  independent  of  all  foreign  aid.     ^^  ^^^"^  ^^  o

The  worship  of  the  Native  Church  and  congregation  was  originally  carried 
on  in  a  house  heretofore  occupied  as  a  dwelling,  being  remodelled  and  used 
as  a  chapel.  This  building,  which  is  made  of  slender  walls  with  a  straw 
rbof,  has  now  become  too  strait  for  the  number  of  attendants;  and,  after 
much  prayer  and  thought  and  consultation  with  liieir  missionary  Mends, 
they  are  about  to  erect  a  substantial  edifice  of  larger  dimensions.  In 
addition  to  a  new  chapel,  they  hope  also  to  be  able  to  provide  a  dwelling- 
house  for  their  pastor.  The  erection  of  the  two  buildings  will  involve  aa 
outlay  somewhat  exceeding  One  Tliomand  Founds.  Towards  this  sum  they 
have  engaged  to  contribute  £200,  and  a  grant  of  £150  has  been  made  by  the 
Directors  of  the  Society.  This,  however,  will  still  leave  a  large  balance  to 
be  supplied ;  but  our  missionaries,  with  their  native  Christian  brethren,  con- 
fidently anticipate  that  European  friends  in  India  will  come  forward  to  their 
help  with  a  willing  heart  and  a  liberal  hand ;  and  they  now  appeal  to  the 
generous-hearted  Christian  public  of  England,  in  the  hope  that  they  wiU 
seize  the  opportunity  to  sustain  and  encourage  their  Hindoo  fellow-Christians 
in  carrying  into  full  accomplishment  tshis  useful  and  important  work. 

The  appeal  is  as  follows : — 

"  This  Church  was  formed  in  the  year  1842,  and  after  a  lapse  of  four  years 
passed  under  the  oversight  of  Dr.  MnHenfl,  its  second  Pastor.  The  iramber 
of  its  adherents  in  1846  waot  fifty-six;  of  whom  only  six  were  commnnieantB. 
The  Word  of  (xod  was  fiaithfully  preached,  and  its  messages  of  Divine  love 
pi'oclaimed  from  Sabbath  to  Sabbath,  Christian  discipline  was  msintaiped 
with  firmness  and  affection,  and  year  after  year  this  little  flock  of  Christ, 
gathered  entirely  from  among  the  surrounding  heathen  population*  begmn* 
under  the  blessing  of  Almighty  God  and  the  ministry  of  His  Gospel,  to  grow 
in  numbers,  intelligence,  and  Christian  character.  From  six  in  1846,  the 
number  of  its  members  increased  to  forty  in  1854 ;  and  that  of  its  adheroits, 
from  fifty-six  to  one  hundred  and  thirty.  The  public  services  w^^,  up  to  tins 
time,  hdd  in  the  house  of  Dr.  Mullens;  but  the  old  institution  bong^alow 
becconing  vacant,  it  was  remodelled  and  used  as  a  chapd  for  Christaiia  wor- 
ship. Hitherto  the  Church  had  been  entirely  def>endant  on  the  Bei^^al 
Auxiliary  to  the  London  Missionary  Society  for  all  its  expanses;  but  lumn^ 
entered  their  new  sanctuary,  its  members  resolved  to  provide  for  tlioao 
expenses  themselves,  and  accordingly  commenced  a  special  monthly  coUeo- 
tion,  in  addition  to  that  made  on  the  Sacramental  Sabbath  for  the  poor  of 
the  Church. 

"  The  Scriptural  duty  of  Christian  liberality— how  much  more  blessed  it  is 
to  give  than  to  receive — ^had,  fr*om  time  to  time,  been  expounded  and  enforced 
by  the  Pastor  with  oonsiderable  effect.  Year  after  year,  as  the  numbor  of 
intelligent  members  increased  and  their  oircfumstances  in  life  improved,  ibis- 
conceptions  and  prqudiees  oonneoted  with  the  duty  of  regular  volimtary 
contributions  for  the  si^port  of  religious  ordinaaoes  disappeared,  sad  every 
one  seemed  to  realize  the  importance  aad  desirahleooess  of  aiaking  the  CSmreli 
entirely  self-sustaining  and  independent.    A.  decided  movement  iomaxdm  tbe 


TOR  JT7LY,  1865.  199 

accomplnhinent  of  this  olject  was  made  at  the  o<»ninenoeinent  of  the  jear 
1861.  In  several  special  meetings,  Dr.  Kullens  endeayottred  to  eonyinee  his 
flock  that  the  time  had  come  when  they  should  choose  one  from  among  them- 
selyes  to  co-op^ute  with  him  in  his  pastoral  duties,  and  should  at  the  same 
time  partiallj  provide  for  his  support.  '  In  accordance  with  the  wishes  of  the 
missionaries/  sajs  the  Report  of  that  year,  '  the  members  were  invited  to 
take  steps  for  the  selection  of  a  Native  Pastor.  For  s<Hne  years  the  Ohurch 
has  been  endeavouring  so  to  mature  its  resources  and  direct  its  plans  as  to 
be  able  at  length  to  secure  the  services  of  such  a  Pastor  and  provide  for  his 
support.  The  members  unanimously  agreed  to  the  proposal,  and  resolved,  in 
addition  to  the  various  expenses  for  worship,  which  have  been  ftdly  met  for 
years,  to  provide  for  a  Pastor  the  sum  of  thirty  rupees  a  month.  These 
arrangements  completed,  the  selection  was  made,  and  the  choice  of  the 
Church  fell  upon  Babu  Suijo  Kumar  Ghose,  one  of  the  evangelists  of  the 
Mission.    He  accepted  the  office,  and  was  ordained  on  the  20th  of  March.' 

"  Thus  the  grain  of  mustard  seed,  if^<^  took  root  just  twenty-one  years 
ago,  has,  under  the  influence  of  the  dews  of  heaven,  grown  to  the  dimensions 
of  a  tree,  and  its  branches  are  now  affording  shelter  to  no  less  than  one 
hundred  and  seventy  souls ;  and  of  these  the  number  of  communicants  is 
sixty-three.  The  increased  liberality  of  the  Ohurch  has  mani^dsted  itself  by 
the  additional  sum  of  twenty  rupees  towards  the  salary  of  their  Pastor ;  thus 
making  it  in  all  fifty  rupees  a  month.*  The  pastoral  duties  of  the  Church 
hare  now  almost  entirely  devolved  upon  its  native  minister.  These  are 
unmistakable  signs  of  growth  and  advancement ;  and  it  is  fondly  hoped  that 
the  day  is  not  far  distant  when  the  Bhowanipore  Congregational  Church  will, 
under  the  tender  care  and  continued  blessing  of  its  great  Head,  become 
entirely  self-supporting  and  independent  of  all  foreign  aid. 

"  But  before  the  dawn  of  that  happy  day  a  most  important  work  must  be 
accomplished.  The  bungalow  now  used  by  the  members  of  this  Church  as  a 
place  of  worship  is  made  of  slender  brick  walls,  with  a  straw  roof;  and  the 
ground  on  which  it  stands  belongs  to  a  Hindoo  zemindar.  They  have,  there- 
fore, for  some  time  past  deeply  felt  the  necessity  of  securing  a  brick  chapel 
of  their  own,  and  a  minister's  house.  After  much  prayer  and  thought,  and 
consultation  with  their  reverend  friends  the  Rev.  Mr.  Storrow  and  Dr.  Mullens, 
they  have  ventured  to  buy  a  piece  of  land  for  the  above  objects  for  the  sum 
of  1800  rupees.  The  work  that  now  lies  before  them  is,  indeed,  great,  and 
their  limited  incomes  and  circumscribed  means  can  do  but  comparatively 
little  towards  its  accomplishment ;  but,  believing  as  they  do  that  it  is  a  good 
work — a  work  on  which  they  confidently  hope  for  a  rich  measure  of  Divine 
blessing,  and  one  m  which,  they  feel  assured,  they  will  have  the  sympathy, 
and  prayers,  and  co-operation  of  all  Christian  friends — ^they  cannot  despair 
of  success.  The  probable  cost  of  a  plain  substantial  place  of  worship,  and  a 
dvrelling-house  for  the  Pastor,  which  it  is  in  their  contemplation  to  build  as 
Boon  as  funds  will  permit,  will  be  about  11,000  rupees.  Towards  this  sum  they 
have  themselves  promised  to  contribute  about  2000  rupees,  to  be  paid  in 
monthly  instalments,  extending  over  two  years.  Those  who  know  them  inti- 
matdy  will  testify  that  they  have  given  even  as  the  Lord  hath  prospered 
them.     They  have,  moreover,  recdved  a  grant  of  1500  rupees  from  the 

k2 


200  HISSIONABT  BiAGAZINB 

Directors  of  the  [London  Missionarj  Socieiy.  The  balance  wanted  for  the 
consummation  of  these  objects  is  then  about  7500  rupees ;  and,  large  as  this 
amount  maj  seem,  they  confidently  hope  that  friends  will  not  be  wanting 
who  shall  come  forward  with  a  willing  heart  and  a  liberal  hand  to  their  help. 
With  earnest  prayer,  therefore,  to  the  GiTer  of  every  good  and  perfect  gift, 
they  send  forth  this  Appeal  to  the  generous-hearted  Ohristiaii  public,  cofn- 
fidently  hoping  far  such  a  response  as  the  circumstances  of  their  case  need.

Ws  have  been  supplied,  by  our  esteemed  friend  and  brother  Dr.  MmxENS, 
with  the  -following  interesting  statement  of  the  progress  of  education  in 
connection  with  our  Mission  in  Calcutta.  It  speaks  for  itself,  and  needs  no 
explanation.  The  increase  of  these  Christian  schools  is  as  surprising  as  it  is 
gratifying,  both  with  regard  to  the  number  of  the  pupils,  and  their  readiness 
to  pay  the  appointed  fees  for  their  education.  This  salutary  arrangement  is 
now  established,  and  affords  an  earnest  of  the  wide  diffusion  of  Christian 
•education  among  the  hitherto  untaught  multitudes  of  the  Hindoo  youth. 

"  Bhowanipore,  Calcutta,  April  7, 1865. 
"  My  vbby  dbab  Fbibnd, — ^We  have  now  been  steadily  at  work  for  three 
months  since  the  Institution  re-opened  after  the  usual  Christmas  holiday, 
and  you  will  be  glad  to  hear  that  we  have  made  in  several  respects  unusual 
progress.  We  have  added  nearly  a  hundred  scholars  to  our  list,  and  have 
reached  the  highest  point  in  numbers  that  the  Institution  has  ever  attained. 
The  class-rolls  show  623  scholars  at  Bhowanipore,  and  192  in  the  branch 
school  at  Behala.  Once  before  we  had  620  scholars  at  Bhowanipore.  This 
was  in  1851,  just  before  we  laid  the  foundation  of  the  new  Institution,  and 
before  the  baptism  of  the  six  converts  who  were  the  first-fruits  of  that 
harvest  of  blessing  since  reaped  by  the  Mission.  Their  baptism  deprived  us 
at  once  of  three  hundred  of  our  most  promising  scholars.  Again  the  numbers 
rose  from  three  htmdred  to  four  hundred :  again  the  baptism  of  five  additional 
converts  half-emptied  the  Institution,  and  left  us  lower  than  before.  So  we 
went  on  for  several  years.  In  those  days,  too,  we  charged  no  fees,  but  the 
education  we  gave  was  fr^e.  Now  we  charge  fees  from  two  shillings  a  month 
down  to  one  shilling.  We  still  baptize  converts ;  but  never  a  word  is  said, 
nor  do  our  scholars  leave  us.  Our  present  position,  therefore,  is  a  far  higher 
and  stronger  one  than  that  of  1851,  and  our  Institution  has  a  much  firmer

hold  Tipon  the  people  around  ns.    Onr  fees  will  this  year  amount  to  more 
than  £400. 

"  We  liye  at  the  verj  head-quarters  of  education  in  this  presidency ;  and 
education  is  increasing  its  already  great  influence  in  the  community  erery 
year.    On  a  vast  scale  it  is  entirely  remodelling  the  opinions  of  the  most 
intelligent  classes.    Its  influence  is  really  prodigious.    In  Oalcutta  and  its 
neighbourhood  we  hare  not  only  the  Gk>yemment  Oollegee  and  several  large 
missionaiy  Institutions,  but  a  large  number  of  good  schools,  managed  by 
native  gentlemen  alone.    In  some  cases  they  receive  a  grant-in-aid,  but  in 
many  others  they  are  supported  entirely  by  the  fees  of  the  scholars,  and  give 
their  proprietors  a  profit.    Throughout  Bengal  schools  are  found  everywhere. 
Almost  every  considerable  town  has  its  Anglo- vernacular  school;  and  even 
large  villages  add  English  classes  to  their  Bengali  schools.    The  Government 
Colleges  at  Hoogly,  Krishnaghur,  Dacca,  and  Berhampore  are  the  chief  among^ 
these  Institutions.    In  the  north-west  provinces  and  the  Punjab  the  desire^ 
for  education  has  increased  greatly  during  the  last  five  years ;  and  wherever,., 
in  large  cities,  opportunities  are  given,  scholars  are  immediately  to  be  found: . 
Three  years  ago  the  natives  in  Agra  were  dissatisfied  with  the  Hberality  of  a  . 
missionary,  who  would  not  expel  from  the  Church  Mission  College  a  boy 
of  low  caste,  and  set  up  a  rival  school  of  their  own.    That  school,  called 
*  Victoria  College,'  has  been  firmly  maintained,  and  was  recently  affiliated  to 
the  Calcutta  University. 

"  An  these  schools  take  the  curriculum  of  the  University  as  their  guide, 
and  their  studies  contain  a  great  deal  of  sound  moral  instruction.     The . 
standard  of  the  University  thus  becomes  their  standard;  and,  as  that  is  hig&^ 
and  sound,  both  in  taste  and  principle,  general  education  is  running  a  com- 
paratively safe  course.  The  Government  Colleges  are  all  being  improved.  All 
the  country  Colleges  will  educate  up  to  the  B.A.  degree,  a  thing  till  recently 
done  only  in  the  Presidency  College.    The  incomes  of  the  professors  have 
been  raised,  and  a  large  number  will  obtain  £1000  or  £1200  a  year  after  a  few 
years'  service.     Everything  urges  the  increase  of  sound  education:  the- 
demand  is  great ;  the  people  wish  for  it ;  they  appreciate  it ;  they  pay  for  it: 
It  is  producing  good  fruit,  and,  on  a  grand  scale,  is  preparing  the  country  for* 
higher  fruit  still. 

"  Does  it  not  become  missionary  societies  to  do  their  part  well  also?  Does  it 
not  become  them  especially  to  occupy  efficiently,  and  in  force,  the  chief  city 
in  which  education  is  given,  and  where  the  University  is  carried  on  P  The 
Tree  Church  Institution,  with  its  1300  scholars  and  students,  presented  three 
of  its  students  a  month  ago  for  the  degree  of  K.A.,  and  several  others  for  that 
of  B.A.  The  Cathedral  Mission  College,  recently  established  with  only  a 
College  Department,  has  obtained  nearly  200  students  in  its  first  year.  Will 
it  not  be  wise  for  our  Society  to  strengthen  its  present  agency,  and,  in  this 
suburb  of  the  city,  where  we  stand  quite  alone,  to  render  increasingly  efficient 
the  means  already  provided  for  giving  to  the  young  people  of  this  quarter  a 
sotmd  Christian  education  ?  We  are  in  the  midst  of  a  good  population;  many 
of  the  present  residents  are  old  students  of  the  Institution,  and  are  glad  to 
see  their  Alma  Mater  flourish.  Our  numbers  are  increasing ;  our  means  also 
increase ;  and,  if  we  can  secure  one  or  two  additional  men,  the  usefulness  of

The  Rev.  P.  Batlis  has  been  greatly  encouraged  during  the  last  year  by 
the  number  of  proselytes  from  the  ignorant  and  idolatrous  people  of  his  dis- 
trict, and  still  more  by  the  increase  and  improyement  of  the  members  of  his 
Church.  Such  reports  are  new  in  the  history  of  this  Mission,  and  happily 
they  apply  to  several  of  the  Travancore  stations  as  well  as  to  Keyoor.  We 
piay  that)  as  €k>d  by  His  providenoe  has  opened  these  doors  of  usefulness^  Ha 
may  bless  the  labours  of  His  faithful  servants,  and  crown  them  wilhi  oomplste 
success  by  the  enlarged  communications  of  His  Holy  Spirit 

**  When/'  remarks  Mr.  Baylis,  "  the  number  of  these  congregationB  is  oon- 
^mdered,  the  extent  of  ground  over  which  they  are  scattered,  and  the  greal 
variety  of  characters  to  be  seen  in  those  composing  them,  it  will  not  be  diffi- 
'  cxilt  to  see  that  there  is  enough  in  the  teaching  and  superintendence  of  thes^ 
with  the  mission  agents,  schools,  &c.,  connected  with  them,  to  folly  tax  the 
time  and  strength  of  a  missionary. 

**  My  colleague,  Mr.  Lowe,  has  continued  to  render  me  assistance  in  yariooB 
ways,  both  at  the  Head  Station,  where  he  often  preaches,  conducts  prayer 
meetings,  &c.,  and  at  the  Out- stations,  which  he  risits  from  time  to  time,  as 
-his  other  duties  allow.  His  earnest,  rousing  api>eals  to  the  heart  and 
•conscience  have  been  often  listened  to  with  great  attention,  and  in  not  a  £em 
instances  have,  we  belieye,  been  accompanied  by  the  Holy  Spirit's  blesnng. 
The  work  of  female  education  here,  which  Mrs.  Baylis  was  called  to  leay^ 
was  at  once  taken  up  by  Mrs.  Lowe ;  and  I  cannot  but  here  record  my  gratitude 
that,  in  a  time  of  deep  soitow  to  myself  and  the  people  of  this  district^  suoh 
kind  and  valued  friends  were  at  hand  to  sympathize  and  help 

**  I  have  been  especially  gratified  by  witnessing  the  good  work  going  on  in 
the  Attur  Division,  under  Arumeinayngam,  evangelist,  who  has  beean  eameai 
and  diligent  in  his  labours  among  Christians  and  heathens,  and  these  laboun 
have  evidently  not  been  in  vain.  He  has  reg^ularly  visited  the  congre* 
gations  in  that  part,  now  seventeen  in  number,  and  stirred  up  the  pecq^ 
to  greater  regularity  in  att^idanoe  on  Divine  ordinances,  and  to  gieaier 
efforts  to  improve  in  knowledge  and  Christian  character.  He  has  also 
instructed  the  agents  under  him,  and  urged  them  on  to  greater  dQigenoe 
in  preaching  to  the  heathen,  appointing  especially  one  day  a  week  wholly  liar 


?€»  7UI.T,  1885.  208 

this  work,  when  they  go  two  or  three  together,  he  himself  aocompanjing  one 
of  the  parties.  By  this  means  many  viUages  ha^e  been  visited  and  the  Gospel 
preached  by  the  wayside ;  and,  as  the  result  of  these  efforts,  besides  additions 
to  moBt  of  the  congregations,  three  new  ones  hare  been  formed,  comprising 
228  adohs,  with  125  children,  now  under  Ghristdan  instruction  in  this  division. 
Sleresi  places  to  denl-wiorrixip,  three  or  four  of  which  were  of  large  size  and 
better  built  ihan  ordinsry,  have  been  destroyed,  and  the  implements  of  wor^ 
ship,  duhs,  spears,  iui,,  given  mp.  The  destmctkm  of  these  places,  which  is,  of 
course,  only  d<me  with  the  Ml  conseat  of  the  owners,  not  only  tends  to 
prevent  the  people  relapsing  into  idolatrous  customs,  but  has  a  salutaay  e£Eect 
on  all  the  people  round,  arousing  inquiry,  and  proving  that  the  demons  they 
so  vmok  dMad  have  really  no  power  to  ixijure  even  those  who  destroy  the 
braidings  in  wfaidi  they  were  worshipped. 

.**  Bendes  frequent  visits  to  Attur,  where  I  have  met  the  agents  of  that 
ftat  on  report-days,  I  hove  beest  able  to  maire  two  tours,  visiting  the  con- 
gregations scattered  among  the  hilk  and  jungles  of  the  far  north,  some  of 
them  eighteen  or  twenty  miles  from  Neyoor,  and  was  much  pleased  with  aH 
I  saw  of  the  progress  oi  the  good  work.  The  people  are  for  the  most  part 
poorer,  more  mumltivated,  and  more  oppressed  by  the.  higher  classes  than 
those  m  the  south ;  but  they  appear  axudous  to  hear  the  good  news  of  salva- 
tion, and  to  break  away  from  their  old  degrading  devil-worship  and  heathenish 
eoBiOHs.  More  agents  are  gr^vtly  needed  to  labour  amongst  them;  but, 
mile«»  I  am  supplied  with  funds  for  the  purpose,  I  nrast  keep  operations  on  a 
v«7  haiMei  scale.  Sehoois,  too,  sore  greatly  needed,  a  much  smaller  propor- 
tko  of  the  peeple  heang  educaited  than  in  the  south.  The  annual  expense  of 
a  vila^  school  vaaries  from  £6  to  £7,  according  to  the  number  of  boys,  their 
aMammeuts,  Ac ;  bnt  £4  or  £5  would  be  sufficient  for  a  school  in  those  parts. 
€QuKpels»  or  pragrer^houses,  are  also  greatly  needed.  For  the  three  new  con- 
gregations there  are  only  small  open  sheds  erected  by  the  people,  and  the 
boHdnigs  in  which  some  of  the  old  congregations  meet  for  worship  are 
wvetohed-looking  buildings,  more  like  cattle-sheds  than  places  for  the  worship 
of  God.  I  woold  gladly,  had  I  a  ftmd  at  command,  erect  five  small,  neat 
pra^er-hotwes  at  pkoes  where  they  are  most  needed.  I  should  be  able  to  do 
tida  for  £50;  but  I  oould  not  ndae  more  than  £10  from  the  people,  on  account 
«f  their  poverty.  Are  there  not  some  of  God's  people  willing  to  assist  in 
providing  these  poor  people  with  decent  places  of  worship  P  I  should  say 
here  tliat,  in  other  parts  of  my  district,  chapels  are  urgently  needed  in  five 
pteea.  These  must  be  larger  and  better  built,  at  a  cost  for  the  whole  of  £120, 
of  which  £4(0  may,  I  think,  be  raised  in  these  congregations  and  among  the 
people  generally ;  so  that,  could  I  be  supplied  with  £120  by  Christian  friends 
im  Sngland  or  India,  Un  chapels  HEndtal^e  to  the  wants  of  the  people  may  be 
eraoted— 4eii  witnesses,  visible  to  all,  that  Jehovah,  the  true  God,  ib  bemg 
woralspped  in  this  dark  land.  I  cb  trust  that  this  appeal  wiH  not  be  made 
invaisa."

ALUOEAH. 

Iir  a  recent  Nnmber  we  laid  before  our  readers  the  report  ftom  thia  atatioii 
supplied  by  the  Bev.  J.  Hewlbtt,  relative  to  the  work  of  Gk>d  niaxmg  the 
inmates  of  the  Institution  for  the  suffering  yictims  of  leprosy.  We  bave 
since  received  a  further  aooount  from  Mr.  H.  of  the  progress  of  this 
most  gratifying  Chiistian  movenumt,  which  we  subjoin,  and  which  we  are 
assured  will  awaken  fbelings  of  thanksgiving  to  God  in  the  heart  of  eveiy 
devout  reader. 

''It  will/'  writes  Mr.  Hewlett,  "undoubtedly  be  very  gratifying  and 
encouraging  to  you,  as  it  is  to  us,  to  know  that  the  work  amongst  the  lepers 
progresses  with  increasing  tokens  most  assuring  of  the  Divine  presence  and 
blessing,  and  with  such  marvellous  rapidity  as  far  exceeds  our  highest  ezpeot*- 
tions.  The  ardour  of  those  of  whose  baptLsms  I  have  already  given  yaa  au 
account  has  not  yet  shown  the  slightest  symptoms  of  abatement,  which  we  oer- 
tainly  anticipated  we  should  see,  in  case  their  motive  for  joining  us  aroee  from 
anything  short  of  a  deep-seated  desire  to  supply  their  spiritual  need  oat  of  the 
rich  provisions  of  mercy  which  they  had  begun  to  perceive  are  freely  offered  by 
the  Gospel  of  the  blessed  Advocate  on  high,  who  '  is  able  to  save  tiiem  to  the 
uttermost  that  come  unto  GKkL  by  Him;'  on  the  other  hand,  while  I  feel  it  beih<y?es 
me  to  be  very  cautious  and  dependent  for  wisdom  from  above  in  all  I  do  or  otj 
respecting  this  movement^  knowing  it  possible  that  we  may  havefrom  some  heoc^ 
after  grievous  disappointment  and  causes  of  humiliating  sorrow,  stilll  beliere 
that  if  there  are  reasons  for  judging  at  the  time  any  religious  awakening  to  be 
under  the  influence  of  the  Spirit  of  God,  such  are  not  wanting  in.this  ease. 
There  is  evidently  among^  them  a  growing  love  for  the  Word  of  God,  and  for 
the  meetings  in  which  they  assemble  to  worship  and  to  leam  more  of  those 
truths  which  are  dearer  than  all  others  to  the  heart  of  a  Ohriatiaa ;  they  alao 
seem  to  manifest  such  an  amount  of  earnestness  and  sincerity  when  taDdiig 
of  the  interests  of  their  souls  and  of  the  way  in  which  they  pour  out  their 
hearts  in  prayer,  which  I  am  constrained  to  bdieve  are  far  from  being  merely 
superficial  Another  pleasing  and  cheering  feature  of  this  work,  I  am  ^ad 
to  find,  is,  that,  instead  of  lying,  quarrelling,  and  abusing  each  other,  as  was 
too  often  their  practice  before,  they  endeavour  to  cultivate  brotherly  love 
and  to  seek  each  other's  edification  and  happiness;  many  of  them  labour  veiy 
earnestly  in  entreating  their  fellow-lepers  to  trust  in  the  same  Saviour,  sad 
openly  profess  His  name,  thus  proving  themselves  to  be  missionaries  of  the 
Cross.    And  their  labours  are  not  in  vain. 

"  Until  after  August  last,  only  those  who  liad  been  previously  of  low  castes 
were  baptized ;  since  then  these  have  been  successfbl  in  persuading  thirly- 
two  more  to  declare  themselves  on  the  Lord's  side,  nearly  all  of  whom  wore  of 
the  Brahman  and  Kohatra  caste.  The  amount  of  knowledge  of  the  SeiipUues 
which  the  former  ones  exhibited  on  seeking  baptism  had  often  astonished  and 
delighted  me ;  but  these  certainly  for  exceeded  them  both  in  their  knowledge 
of  the  Word  of  God  and  in  intelligence,  and  only  hung  back  through  a  relne- 
tance  to  part  with  the  caste  nptions  that  they  had  ^i^|1{^  taught  by  their

fkihers  and  oonntrymen  to  prize  more  than  life.  As  I  am  anxioas  in  baptiz- 
ing the  lepers  to  act  under  the  gnidance  and  approbation  of  the  great  Head 
of  the  Ohnrch,  and  feared  that  these  inqnirers  maj  have  been  carried  along 
merely  by  the  stream  of  excitement,  I  decided  to  delay  much  longer  than  I 
had  done  before,  and  kept  them  waiting  several  months.  The  delay,  however, 
seemed  to  have  deepened  their  impression  and  to  have  increased  their  desire 
to  be  recognised  as  followers  of  Christ.  Many  of  them,  also,  had  evidently 
passed  through  severe  mental  struggles  before  deciding  to  seek  baptism. 
At  length,  as  their  sincerity  seemed  to  be  beyond  doubt,  and  as  they  mani* 
fested  a  knowledge  of  the  following  truths— without  which  I  should  not  think 
it  right  to  baptize  adults — our  sin  against  God,  and  its  merited  punishment 
in  hell;  the  happiness  of  heaven,  pm'uhased  for  us  by  the  Redeemer's  atoning 
death;  and  that  baptism  is  only  of  avail  when  accompanied  by  a  penitential 
forsaking  of  our  sins,  and  resting  by  faith  upon  Christ  for  eternal  life, — I 
baptized  them  on  Sunday,  the  llth  inst.,  with  feelings  of  joy  and  sympathy 
for  the  lepers,  and  gratitude  to  God  for  these  effects  of  His  glorious  Gk>epel, 
trusting  also  that  He  would  baptize  them  with  the  Holy  Ghost  and  unite 
them  with  the  Church  of  the  first-bom,  who  are  written  in  heaven.  Fifty- 
three  now  profess  Christianity.  Once  every  Lord's  day- 1  conduct  a  service 
for  Christian  worship  at  the  Asylum,  which  has  hitherto  been  held  in  the  open 
air.  The  chapel  which  we  are  building  for  them  on  the  grounds  adjoining 
the  Asylum  is  nearly  ready.  I  hope  to  be  able  to  open  it  in  a  month  or  so, 
from  which  time,  I  trust,  Christian  worship  wiU  regularly  be  conducted  in  it ; 
where,  also,  if  the  lepers  continue  to  show  satisfEU^iy  signs  of  their  conver- 
sion being  the  Lord's  work,  we  shall  feel  justified  and  encouraged  in  forming 
a  Church  from  amongst  them,  which,  as  it  will  consist  exclusively  of  lepers, 
may  seem  novel  and  strange  in  the  eyes  of  many,  but  will  not  for  that  reason 
be  less  amiable  in  the  eyes  of  our  adorable  Bedeemer,  and  of  those  who  have 
the  same  mind  that  was  in  Him. 

^'  Nearly  all  the  other  branches  of  the  Mission  continue  with  undiminished 
interest.  The  schools  are  rather  on  the  increase  in  number  and  interest.  I 
trust  (D.V.)  to  write  again  next  month,  giving  you  a  review  of  the  work  of 
the  year."

ITINERANT   LABOURS   OF   A   lilSSIONART. 

"  21st  March,  1864.  Monday.— At  the  request  of  the  Bev.  J.  W.  Gordon,  I 
left  my  station  this  morning  for  Qhittavalsa,  in  order  to  take  with  me  the 
catechist  as  far  as  Eamedy,  to  declare  the  glad  tidings  of  .salvation  to  the 
perishing  heathen,  and  arrived  safely  at  Banly  at  about  nine  p.m. 

"  23rd.  Wednesday.— This  day  I  had  the  pleasure  of  preaching  the  *  Word 
of  Life'  to  a  large  congregation  assembled,  consisting  of  about  150  individuals 
at  Chittavalsa,  in  the  meeting-house,  from  St.  John's  Gospel,  chap,  v.,  ver.  40. 
They  were  very  attentive.  May  the  Holy  Spirit  incline  their  hearts  to  hear 
the  voice  of  the  Saviour  of  the  world,  and  believe  His  testimony,  and  daily

thero  was  a  large  temple  dedicated  to  the  honour  <^  Vishnu.  A  large  nwn- 
ber  of  people  of  different  castes  soon  assembled  around  us.  The  oatecthist 
read  a  tract  entitled  '  Worship  of  Jsjgaaath '  (one  of  the  iacarngtiops  of 
Vishnu).  I  addressed  them :  tiiey  heard  us  very  attentively.  Afterwaid% 
had  a  hwg  and  interesting  con?ersation  with  an  aged  BrahnuA  and  aSoodrarr 
while  the  congregation  was  listening  attentively,  abd  at  last  confessed  thai 
Jesus  Christ  alone  was  the  true  Saviour.  Sold  and  distributed  a  few  tra0t% 
;aiid  came  back  to  our  lodgings. 

**  1st  April.  Friday. — ^We  went  and  preached  twice  in  this  village,  callsi 
"*  Aukulatumpara' — once  at  the  Rijah's  house,  and  another  time  in  the  village. 
We  had  a  good  congregation:  both  the  people  and  Ri^ah  heard  veifj 
•attentively  the  plan  of  salvation  by  Jesus  Christ.  Many  said, '  All  you  saj 
is  true,  and  we  believe  it.'  Sold  and  distributed  a  few  tracts.  This  Bajah  ia 
a  petty  chief,  and  the  village  was  granted  to  him  and  his  late  brothers  by  €ke 
authorities,  for  the  good  services  done  to  Qovemment,  such  as  quelling  dis* 
torbances,  <&c.  As  this  is  the  residaice  of  omr  new  oonvert^  who  warn  lat-e^ 
baptized,  we  took  him  with  us  in  order  that  he  might  take  his  wife,  who  wiriied 
to  foUow  her  husband%  Her  relations  were  against  it.  We  came  heace  chieAj 
to  pemiade  them  to  aJlow  the  woman  to  follow  her  husband,  and  left  him  heva 
till  we  returned  from  Eomedy,  at  his  request.  It  seems  the  Bsjtih.  privateiy 
sent  for  the  convert's  father  (a  brother  of  our  catechist,  who  accompanied  me 
on  thia  tour),  and  spoke  to  himi  Ukat  they  should  not  at  all  hinder  the  wamaa 
:from  fdkwing  her  husbfuid,  which  is  nothing  but  natural  and  right. 

"3rd.  Sunday. — ^This  day  we  spoke  in  three  villages— viz.,  'Geendy/ 
'*  Temarara,'  and  '  Thamara/  which  wem  nearly  c<mnected — and  had  a  hmg 
discourse  with  a  young  maat  regarding  the  impurity  o£  their  religion  and  the 
purity  of  Christianity. .  I  told  them  that  their  idols  were  false  gods,  and  that 
all  who  trust  in  them  will  be  partakers  of  eternal  punishment.  A  carpenter 
in  the  mob  was  very  attentive.  A  few  hours  after  our  return  to  the  tent  he 
■made  his  appearance,  and  made  several  inquiries  on  different  things,  to  all  of 
^hich  we  replied.  Being  quite  satisfied,  he  said, '  This  is  the  only  true  way.  and 
from  this  day,  by  Gk)d's  help,.  I  shall  forsake  idolatry  and  Shiva  (their  chief 
deity),  and  will  only  pray  to  Jesus  Chiist.'  We  told  him  that  Qod*  who  had 
so  f)Eur  enlightened  his  mind  to  know^  that  Christ  alone  is  the  true  Saviour, 
should  he  forsake  aQ  M&e  atnd  evil  ways  and  pray  to  Christ,  would  oettamly 
save  him.    (Hve  him  ihi^de  difllftrent  tracts  when  he  left  us.

a  large  congregation  who  soon  assembled,  afber  singing  a  hymn.  Theyheaxd 
the  plan  of  salvation  by  Jesus  i^e  Son  of  Qod  gladly.  A  reqiectable 
min  made  some  objections,  by  saying  that  Brahma,  Yishnu,  and  Sfanra  i 
true  gods ;  but  I  proved  to  him  in  several  ways  that  they  wen  very  wicfeed 
aft  well  as  false  gods,  and  they  were  the  inventions  of  men;  that  Jeans

Sold  and  distaributed  some  tracts,  and  came  home  at  eleven  for  breakfiist.  In 
^e  albomoon  we  went  into  a  diifereiit  part  (^  the  town,  and,  in  the  veranda 
of  a  lidi  Soodra,  who  invited  ns  to  hear,  had  a  protracted  ocmversation: 
i^gardingthetnitkofOhrigtiaaity  and  the  ffclaity  of  Hinduism.  Many  heard 
ns,  and  at  last  the  rich  man  and  his  brothers  oonfessed  it  waa  a  true  and  good 
leligion.  From  th  w  conversation  I  perceived  that  they  had  been  reading  some 
of  oar  books.    Distributed  a  few  tracts,  and  came  to  our  lodgings  about  seven. 

**  7th.  Thursday. — Came  to  Oomnnahpillay  again,  in  order  to  send  the  new 
ecmv«rt  and  hia  wife  to  Ohittavalsa,  whom  we  left  here  when  we  started  for 
Kimedy.  After  a  little  troable  we  got  the  consent  of  her  rehitions  that  she 
might  follow  her  husband  if  she  liked;  but  thdr  daughter,  a  child  of  about 
seven  years,  they  |»«vented,  as  she  is  manried.  They  never  permitted  the 
fkAd  to  go  near  her  parents,  thinking  that  they  would  persuade  her  to  ac- 
eomjmny  them;  so,  after  remtmstrating  with  them  regarding  the  child,  I 
desired  the  convert  to  proceed  to  Ohittavalsa  with  his  wife.  The  catechist 
being  an  undo  of  theirs,  it  seems  they  privately  laid  the  blame  on  him  for 
allowing  their  son  to  become  a  Christian,  and  abased  them  most  shamefolly ; 
hot  in  my  presence  liiey  never  used  any  sudi  language,  but  only  expressed 
great  sorrow  for  what  had  occurred.  I  twice  told  the  old  man  (the  fibther) 
not  to  be  sony  for  his  son,  f<xr  he  had  done  nothing  wrong  or  sinfbl,  but 
had  chosen  a  good  part  to  obtain  the  salvation  of  his  soul,  and  exhorted  him 
to  believe  on  the  Lord  Jeans,  who  is  the  trae  Saviour.  I  am  happy  to  state 
that  there  are  many  others  in  this  village  desirous  to  take  up  their  cross  and 
fellow  Jesus,  but  have  not  courage  enough  to  come  out  from  the  world  im- 
mediately ;  they  often  heard  us  preadi  in  the  street,  and  oftentimes  came  to 
our  lodf^XLgB  for  books.  Amongst  these  are  the  Naidu's  (head  man  of  the  village) 
son,  the  Bigeh's  eldest  son,  and  the  convert's  brother.  May  the  Lord  soon 
give  them  courage  to  renounce  the  world  with  aH  its  vanities  and  evil  practices, 
and  enlist  themselves  under  the  banner  of  Christ  as  good  soldiers ;  and  may 
the  Holy  Spirit  water  the  seed  sown  in  feebleness,  and  cause  it  to  spring  up  in 
doe  time  to  the  glory  of  our  Bedeemer.    Amen.

8SAir»HAI. 

ITe  have  been  favoured  by  the  Eev,  R.  Dawson,  of  Devizes,  with  the  follow 
ing  deeply  interesting  statement  from  the  pen  of  his  near  relative   Mrs, 
HsKBEBSOK,  describing  the  influence  of  Christians  labours  in  connection  with 
the  benevolent  medical  operations  of  the  Hospital  in  Shangbae. 

*<  Shanghae,  March,  1865. 
'*  Mt  dbab  Bbothbb, — ^I  hope  by  the  next  mail  to  post  you  the  Eeport 
otf  tlie  Chinese  Hospital  for  the  last  year ;  but,  knowing  the  deep  and  true 


208  uumovAMY  maoazinb 

interest  jon  take  in  the  work,  I  am  rare  you  will  Hke  to  reoeiye 
additional  partacnlarB  relating  more  to  the  spiritual  history  of  some  of  tlie 
patients. 

« I  am  reiy  thankfal  to  tell  joa  that  there  was  a  considerable  increase  last 
year  in  the  numbers  of  those  who  openly  professed  their  faith  in  duost  *. 
thirty  were  baptized  by  Mr.  Mnirhead.  To  these,  who  have  openly  de<dared 
their  change  of  heart,  we  trust  may  be  added  not  a  few  '  secret  disciples,' 
who,  from  a  variety  of  causes,  have  not  yet  spoken  of  what  th^  have  really 
received  into  the  heart.  Keih-Foo,  our  chaplain,  tells  me  that  he  has  had 
many  such  inqnirers,  some  of  whom  have  carried  to  their  distant  homes  the 
seed  of  precious  truth ;  and  it  may  be  that,  after  many  days,  it  may  bring 
forth  fruit  an  hundredfold.  There  seems  a  desire,  on  the  part  of  those  who 
come  to  the  Hospital,  to  hear  the  Gk)8pel;  and  many  who  have  come  to  attend 
on  their  sick  friends  have  heard  and  received  it.  There  was  one  very  inte- 
resting case,  in  which  a  mother,  who  was  waiting  on  her  invalid  son,  was 
impressed  with  Christian  truth ;  both  received  baptism,  and  ihey  now  oome 
-every  Sunday  to  the  afternoon  service.  This  service,  conducted  by  Keih-Foo, 
is  attended  by  many  who  have  received  good  in  the  Hospital,  and  many  of 
the  hearers  bring  their  friends  to  it.  In  the  Report  you  will  see  an  aceoont 
of  a  man  who  had  an  enormous  tumour  removed  frt>m  his  neck ;  it  weighed 
over  four  poxmds,  and  had  given  him  great  pain  and  xmeasinees.  He  knew 
nothing  of  the  Gk)Bpd  when  he  came  in,  but  during  his  stay  he  became 
seriously  impressed.  He  thought  that  the  religion  of  such  skilful  doctors 
must  be  worth  something,  and  became  an  interested  learner.  He  was  bap* 
tised  before  he  left. 

"  There  is  a  considerable  difference  to  be  found  in  the  patients,  gathered 
as  they  are  from  every  class.  Some  are  very  poor  and  illiterate;  others  again 
can  read  and  talk  to  their  friends,  and  go  away  promising  to  tell  the  good 
news  th^  have  heard.  To  this  dass  belonged  a  man,  a  dyer  by  trade,  who 
lived  near  Soo-chow.  He  was  only  here  a  fortnight^  but  his  heart  seemed  a;t 
once  to  grasp  the  truth.  He  used  to  go  about  amongst  the  other  patients 
and  exhort  them.  He  was  very  anxious  to  be  baptized  before  he  left,  and 
went  home  with  a  supply  of  books  and  Testaments,  determined  to  spread  the 
Gbspel  as  far  as  possible. 

'*  Another  man,  who  had  had  his  hand  fearfdlly  izgured  by  a  circular  saw, 
seemed  veiy  earnest  in  his  attention  to  the  instructions  of  the  native  teacher. 
He  was  quite  ignorant  when  he  came  in,  but  during  his  two  months*  stay  he 
learned  much. 

"  There  was  a  very  rich  merchant  for  some  time  an  in-patient,  who  came 
from  the  vicinity  of  Woo-sung.  He  brought  with  him  servants,  and  aH  sorts 
of  comforts,  and  considered  himself  too  grand  to  sit  with  the  common  people 
in  the  large  hall.  Nevertheless  he  read  the  Testament,  and  every  day  Kc^» 
Foo  went  to  his  room  and  talked  to  him.  He  said  the  doctrine  was '  very  good.' 
He  used  to  walk  about  the  wards,  and  seemed  greatly  interested  in  all  the 
doctor's  work ;  and  when  he  left  he  sent  a  handsome  present  to  the  Hospital, 
and  a  large  tablet  commemorating  the  doctor's  skill  as  '  more  lofty '  than  that 
of  two  most  celebrated  Chinese  physicians.  He  asked  to  be  allowed  to  come 
again,  and  stay  inside  to  look  at  the  work,  and  at  the  new  year  he  came  to 


FOB  JULY,  1866.  209 

'  Clim-Chiii/  the  doctor.  He  alwajs  attended  the  Snndaj  Bonrices ;  but  it  is 
true  in  this  land  as  in  every  other,  that  rich  men  are  not  those  who  make  the 
most  efforts  to  press  into  the  kingdom. 

"  I  could  go  on  multiplying  cases  Uke  those  I  hare  written,  but  I  think 
th^  will  suffice  to  show  you  the  quiet,  yet  successful  work  that  is  going  on. 
I  oonld  tell  you  of  several  women  who  have  come  with  suffering  bodies,  and 
have  gone  out  cured  both  in  body  and  soul ;  of  others  who  can  now  say, 
'  Whereas  I  was  blind,  now  I  see ; '  of  others  who  were  lame,  but  who  were 
here  taught  to  walk  in  the  narrow  road. 

"  I  know  it  was  your  privilege  on  several  occasions  to  baptize  patients  who 
entered  the  Hospital  wretched  and  ignorant,  and  you  will  r^oice  with  us, 
that  the  good  work  is  prospering  and  increasing  amongst  us. 

*'  Keih-Foo  has  just  brought  me  a  letter,  received  by  one  of  the  converts 
from  a  firiend  who  was  some  time  in  the  Hospital.  Her  arm  was  broken,  and 
riie  was  a  patient  several  weeks.  She  was  baptized,  and,  after  returning  to 
Hang-chow,  about  J50  miles  distant,  she  writes,  saying  that  she  still  loves 
the  doctrines  of  Jesus,  and  takes  every  opportunity  of  speaking  to  her  friends, 
telling  them  that  all  other  religions  are  &lse,  and  that  only  Jesus  can  save 
the  soul.  She  expresses  anxiety  for  Keih-Foo  to  come  to  her  city,  that  she 
may,  with  her  friends,  hear  the  Gk)8pel  again. 

'*  Yesterday  a  rather  interesting  circumstance  took  place.  While  Eeih-Foo 
was  preaching,  a  mandarin,  with  a  glass  button,  came  in  and  sat  down. 
When  the  service  was  over  he  said  that,  ten  years  ago,  when  living  near 
Soon-kong,  he  had  first  heard  him  preach,  and  had  afterwards  listened  to  the 
instructions  of  the  Rev.  Alexander  Williamson.  During  all  these  years  he 
had  not  forgotten  what  he  heard;  and  now,  being  made  a  mandarin,  and 
living  in  Shanghae,  he  sought  out  his  old  teacher  and  came  to  hear  him. 
This  man  has  made  no  profession ;  but  a  case  like  this  shows  that  often  an 
impression  is  left  where  we  scarcely  expected  to  find  it ;  and  good  seed  is  not 
lost,  though  for  years  it  may  be  hidden. 

"  And  now  I  must  close  my  letter,  for  it  has  extended  fiir  beyond  what  I 
expected.  I  think  you  have  heard  of  the  building  of  the  new  Union  Chapel 
on  the  <^  site.  It  was  opened  last  August,  and  is  a  neat  and  commodious 
place  of  worship,  and  is  most  pleasantly  connected  with  my  dear  Mends  at 
home  by  the  beautiful  Bible  which  the  members  of  our  Juvenile  Working 
Meeting  at  Leeds  most  generously  presented  for  it.  I  never  look  at  it  with- 
out thinking  of  their  kindness,  and  the  interest  they  fed  in  all  our  work.  I 
need  not  ask  you  to  pray  for  us,  for  I  know  how  dear  and  near  the  cause  of 
Missions  is  to  your  heart.  Amidst  much  to  discourage  and  mourn  over,  we 
have  cause  to  bless  our  God  that  something  is  done  here  day  by  day,  not  only 
to  alleviate  the  misery  and  suffering  of  the  body,  but  to  lead  these  poor  dying 
creatures  to  Him  who  is  the  Life,

AN  INTEBESTING  COVYEBT. 

"  Our  work,"  writes  the  Ber.  Jaaaihaii  Lees,  under  date  Feb.  9th,  ^  has  gone 
steadily  forward,  and  with  manj  indications  of  the  Divine  flATonrand  blesaing. 
True,  we  are  not  permitted  as  jet  to  tell  of  nmnbers  brought  to  repentance  aad 
tme  £uth ;  and  it  ma j  be  that  our  own  faith  needs  large  iBcrease  before  God 
shall  grant  such  blessings  as  these.  But  there  is  nndoubtedlj  a  greai  work 
in  progress,  which  we  or  others  shall  one  daj  realize.  In  dme  soaaon  the 
reaping-time  nmst  come. 

**  On  the  last  Sundaj  of  October  a  jonng  man  was  baptised,  respeetoig 
whom  we  cherish  many  hopes.  His  name  is  Skat^  By  trade  he  is  a  maker 
of  £uiey  lanterns,  working  witli  his  father.  He  is  very  poor,  and  has  entjoyed 
fbw  opportunities  of  gaining  knowledge,  either  human  or  Divine;  but  be  is 
naturally  diligent  and  warm-hearted,  and  hss  besides  good  mentsl  poweff% 
which  the  Gk)spel  (as  is  so  often  the  case)  has  quickened  into  actioa.  li  is 
now  perhaps  eighteen  months  since  he  first  i^>peared  as  a  candidate.  Hia 
evident  sineerity  sad  satisffectoiy  acquaintance  with  the  truth  would  have  led 
to  his  reception  long  ago,  had  not  he  felt  great  difiEknilty  as  to  keepin^p  the 
Sabbath — a  point  which  is  always  testing  for  new  converts.  At  length,  hew- 
ever,  liis  decision  was  made,  and  the  Church  joyfully  wdcomed  him.  A  lazge 
congregation  witnessed  ihe  baptism.  His  answers  were  veiy  dear;  aad 
especially  pleasing  was  his  avowal  of  weakness,  and  simple  reliance  upcm  tiis 
Spirit's  help.  When,  at  last,  his  long-cherished  wish  had  been  gratified,  mad^ 
with  prayer  to  Father,  Son,  and  Holy  Spirit,  he  found  himself  avowedly  a 
fi)llower  of  Jesus,  the  poor  lad  burst  into  a  flood  of  tears,  whidi  he  hard^ 
attempted  to  repress  during  the  prayer  which  followed.  Let  us  ask  your 
prayers  on  his  behalf.  He  has  had  to  pass  through  much  persecutionat  home. 
All  sorts  of  schemes  have  been  tried  to  shake  his  consistenGy,  but  thus  fiur  I 
believe  without  success.  I  rarely  meet  him  without  heaxing  some  new  tale 
of  home  trisL  He  finds  it  hard  to  be  at  once  an  obedient  son  and  a  fiultlilul 
Christian.  His  Bible  has  been  more  than  once  taken  from  him  and 
destroyed.  On  Sabbath  his  clothes  are  often  hid  to  prevent  his  coming  to 
the  chapeL  He  has  been  frequently  beaten  for  his  unwillingness  to  break 
the  Sabbath,  although  during  the  previous  week  he  had  by  overwork  SMqStj 
earned  hisrest.  We  have  tliought  of  taking  him  on  as  a  student,  and  may  y«A 
do  so.  But  this  has  met  with  determined  opposition  from  his  htuij ;  aiid, 
much  as  he  wishes  to  give  himsdf  wholly  to  God's  work,  we  must  wait  till 
God  shall  open  his  way."

The.  intelligence  last  received  from  the  capital  agrees  in  substance  with 
former  communications.  The  several  congregations,  however,  in  the  city  of

"  I  have  now  nine  conntry  Churches  under  my  care,  all  of  which  continue

with  them,  but,  unless  the  Directors  will  allow  us  to  render  pecuniary  help  to 
a  trifling  extent  to  the  teachers,  I  shall  be  greatly  hindered.  My  Church  at 
Ambohipotsy  continues  to  go  on  well.  On  Wednesday  last  I  admitted  fifteen 
into  fellowsMp,  and  there  are  twenty-four  waiting  to  be  admitted  next  month. 
The  number  of  persons  who  have  been  connected  with  the  Church  since  its 
opening  is  243.  Of  these  three  have  been  suspended  through  bad  conduct,

"  Antananarivo,  December  30th,  1864. 
.  *'  Mt  DBAS  Sra^— I  have  received  the  pared  of  sewing  materials  yon  so 
Idndly  sent,  and  am  very  much  obliged.  For  a  long  time  previously  I  had 
been  paying  an  enormous  price  for  thimbles,  needles,  and  cotton,  but  now,  I 
am  happy  to  say,  it  will  be  no  longer  necessary  to  do  so.  Our  chief  want 
ii,ow  is  material  to  work  upon :  some  print  or  unbleached  calico  would  be  a 

real  boon  to  us.  .,^  .  .  Digitized  by  LjOOgLC

''  I  am  gLeA  to  be  able  to  tell  yoa  there  is  a  rerj  great  improrement  in  the 
xnaxiners  and  appearance  of  these  poor  children.  In  onr  own  school  nearly 
every  giii  has  >  jacket,  and  the  biggest  boys  blooses,  made  in  the  achooL 
The  material  sent  by  some  kind  friends  in  Dundee  is  now  almost  nsed  np. 
The  elder  girls  are  doing  embroidery  and  marking,  and,  I  sincerely  trust,  will 
grow  np  nseM,  and  more  industrious  than  the  women  of  this  conntay  have 
generally  been. 

"  Our  Sunday  School  continues  steadily  to  increase  in  numbers.  There  are 
eight  or  nine  teachers  surrounded  by  groups  of  quiet  and  attentire  children* 
who  sit  on  mats  upon  the  ground.  After  the  teaching  is  over  they  remore^ 
class  by  class,  to  the  front  of  the  platform,  when  I  generally  giye  them  a 
Scripture  lesson.  As  soon  as  school  is  over,  the  people  assemble  for  after- 
noon service,  and  many  of  the  teachers  do  not  leave  the  chapel,  but  remain 
the  whole  day  without  taking  food. 

*'  On  Monday,  26th  of  December,  we  gave  a  treat  to  the  most  regular  in 
attendance  in  our  schools.  Seventy-six  children  partook  of  beef  and  mutton,

PBOSPXBITY  OF  THE  MISSION. 

"  Malua,  Samoa,  September  27th,  1864. 

*'  Mt  DBA&  Db.  Tidxan, — ^I  have  now  the  pleasure  of  forwarding  you  the 
Twentieth  Annual  Report  of  our  Mission  Seminaiy.  God  still  smiles  on  thi* 
department  of  our  work,  and  to  His  name  be  the  praise  for  these  twenty  yean 
of  almost  uninterrupted  prosperity. 

*'  In  the  adjacent  villages,  where  there  is  a  population  of  2000  people  who 
look  to  Mr.  Nisbet  and  myself  for  pastoral  superintendence,  the  Church 
members  number  297,  and  the  candidates  for  church-fellowship  277.  In  the 
course  of  the  year  they  have  shown  their  usual  liberality  in  contributing  to 
the  cause  of  Qod,  Their  annual  presents  to  the  nine  village  preachers  this 
year  amount  in  cash  to  £79  17«.  6d.  This,  you  are  aware,  is  exclusive  of 
presents  of  food  to  these  worthy  men  every  week,  all  over  the  year.  The 
contributions  to  the  London  Missionary  Society  in  May  amounted  to  £81  lOir . 
In  the  course  of  the  year  also  they  have  niade  two  extra  efforts;   via.,  a 


FOB  JULY,  1865.  213 

present  of  suppliee  to  the  Tessel  which  brought  Captain  Williams  and  party 
from  the  scene  of  the  wreck  of  the  '  John  Williams '  and  took  them  on  to 
Sydn^,  and  also  a  contribution  from  the  children  of  the  district  to  help  in 
the  purchase  of  a  new  Missionary  Ship. 

"  We  have  in  our  schools  between  five  and  six  hundred  children.  They  all 
look  forward  to  the  examination-day  with  interest.  We  give  small  prizes  on 
these  occasions,  such  as  a  new  copy-book  and  a  fancy  pen-holder  to  the  best 
writer  in  each  class,  a  pencil  to  each  of  the  best  readers,  and  this  year  we 
gave  a  copy  of  our  new  Geography  to  those  who  excelled  in  general  knowledge. 
They  had  all  a  great  treat  this  examination-day,  and  their  parents  too,  in 
getting  a  sight  of  a  number  of  the  diagrams  of  the  Working  Men's  Educa- 
tional Union — a  fine  selection  of  which  I  brought  out  for  the  Institution,  the 
kind  gift  of  John  Henderson,  Esq.,  of  Park,  and  John  Wemyss,  Esq.,  of 
Fraserburgh. 

"  The  new  Bible  is  greatly  prized.  Already  upwards  of  £1500  worth  of 
them  have  been  disposed  of;  and,  if  the  sales  go  on  as  at  present,  the  whole 
edition  of  10,000  will  soon  be  in  the  hands  of  the  people ;  and  that  will  be  a 
complete  copy  of  God's  Word  for  every  8i  of  the  entire  population. 

"There  is  a  marked  increase,  you  will  observe  by  the  late  statistics,  in  the 
Samoan  people — about  1000  in  seven  years.  We  now  number  35,000.  This, 
and  some  other  facts,  will  enable  you  to  contradict,  or  at  least  to  modify,  what 
you  often  hear;  viz.,  that  the  South  Sea  Islanders  are  fast  melting  away. 

"  The  Boman  Catholic  priests  are  bitter  against  our  new  mai*ginal-reference 
Bible.  They  find  it  hard  work  here,  as  it  is  in  otiier  parts  of  the  world,  to 
make  much  way  among  a  Bible-reading  people.  What  a  happy  thing  it  was 
that  we  had  the  New  Testament  in  the  hands  of  the  Samoans  before  ever  they 
saw  a  Popish  priest !  Still  these  men  came.  A  nimiber  of  sisters  of  Charity, 
too,  have  lately  arrived.  Some  of  these  ladies  made  their  appearance  several 
years  ago :  the  natives  would  have  it  that  they  were  the  wives  of  the  priests, 
and  they  left  after  a  time.  It  remains  to  be  seen  how  this  fresh  arrival  will 
succeed.  They  now  employ  a  native  agency,  gathered  from  expelled  church 
members,  or  it  may  be  a  fallen  teacher,  or  some  others  who  may  be  called  the 
scum  of  the  community ;  and  thus  they  go  on,  the  blind  leading  the  blind,  and 
doing  a  deal  of  mischief.    May  Gk)d  have  mercy  upon  them ! 

"  I  wrote  to  you  in  July,  giving  you  an  account  of  the  death  of  Mr.  Mills, 
and  again  in  August,  referring,  among  other  things,  to  the  equally  unexpected 
calamity  which  has  befallen  our  Mission  in  the  death  of  Mrs.  Whitmee.  Mr. 
Nisbet  will  now  tell  you  that  Mr.  Bird,  too,  after  a  long  illness,  has  gone  to  a 
better  world.  Our  Mission  is  again,  you  see,  much  enfeebled,  and  in  urgent 
need  of  reinforcement.  Do  the  best  you  can  for  us,  and  with  all  practicable 
speed. 

**  Mrs.  Turner  and  Mrs.  MOls  unite  with  me  in  kindest  regards.

<'Malua,  September  26th,  18G4. 

"  Our  Institatiaii  has  just  completed  its  twentieth  year.  After  purchaaiiig 
the  land,  and  six  months'  preparatory  work  in  clearing  the  bush,  erecting 
dwellings,  Slo.,  our  first  class,  consisting  of  twenty  youths,  was  <q>ened  on  the 
25th  September,  1844.  In  the  following  year  a  teachers'  class  of  fifteen 
students  was  commenced,  and  ever  since  the  work  of  instruction  has  been 
steadily  carried  on.  Up  to  this  date,  our  Institution  register,  including  the 
wives  of  the  teachers  and  natives  brought  hither  in  the  '  John  Williams '  from 
heathen  islands,  shows  an  aggregate  of  914.  The  most  of  the  Samoan  villages 
are  now  under  the  care  of  young  men  who  have  been  educated  here;  and  the 
Institution  has  its  representatives  as  well  in  Tokelau,  Savage  Island,  Maxi^ 
Lifu,  Uea,  and  Eramanga.  We  have  now  87  young  men  under  our  care,  who, 
'wiih.  the  wives  of  60  of  them  who  %re  married,  and  also  their  children,  make 
i^  a  total  in  the  Institution  of  245  individuals.  This  enables  us  to  seoid  ovit 
about  twenty  fresh  men  every  year ;  and  that  we  find  barely  sufiioient  to  meet 
the  ever-recurring  wants  occasioned  by  deaths  and  disabilities. 

"  The  small  thatch-enclosed  houses  in  which  the  first  class  of  students  were 
lodged  in  1844  have  given  place  to  fourteen  stone- walled  cottages,  ranged  en 
either  side  of  our  large  class-room;  and  we  have  in  addition  twelve  weather- 
boarded,  and  other  inferior  houses,  which  will  be  superseded  in  due  course,  we 
trust,  by  better  buildings.  The  young  men  still  devote  the  Wednesday  of 
each  week  to  the  work  of  house-building  and  other  improvements;  and  te 
this  arrangement  we  are  indebted  for  the  present  changed  a/q[>ect  of  the  place, 
compared  with  the  time,  twenty  years  ago,  when  it  was  an  uninhabited  bufllL 
Additions  have  been  made  from  time  to  time  to  the  land  which  we  cn^pjuHj 
bought,  and  the  whole  now  extends  to  about  sixty  acres,  which  the  stodents 
cultivate  during  exercise-hours,  and  thus  provide  by  their  own  industry  for 
the  daily  wants  of  their  table. 

"  We  are  glad  to  report  that  the  Sunday-school  children  in  Hobart  Town 
still  send  us  valuable  aid  towards  our  annual  suit  of  clothing,  to  the  students, 
tools,  stationeiy,  &c.  We  have  also  had  help  from  friends  at  St.  Kilda  and 
Geelong,  in  Victoria,  and  from  the  juveniles  at  the  Weigh  House  Chapel, 
Ixmdon.  A  donation  of  £10  has  also  been  sent  to  us  from  H.  Hopkins,  Esq., 
Hobart  Town.  We  have  likewise  received  from  the  Mission  House,  Ijondon, 
in  the  course  of  the  year,  a  case  of  paper,  and  a  parcel  of  shirts  and  calico,  to 
the  value  of  £23. 

"  The  leading  branches  of  study  for  the  four  years'  course  are  as  formerly 
reported,  and  as  follows:  Scripture  exposition,  systematic  and  pastoral 
theology,  together  with  Bible  and  Church  history.  Some  time  also  is  devoted 
to  writing  and  composition,  arithmetic  and  geography,  the  elements  of  natural 
philosophy,  natural  history,  and  the  English  language. 

"  It  is  difficult  for  any  but  those  who  have  had  actual  and  prolonged  contact 
with  men  in  savage  and  semi-civilized  life  fially  to  understand  the  nature  of 
our  present  work,  and  to  form  a  right  estimate  of  its  results.  There  is  s 
disposition  in  many  in  the  distance  to  eompare  them  with  home  collegea,  and 
to  infer  too  much  when  they  hear  of  the  rise  and  progress  of  institutiona  sock

MANGAIA. 

APPEAL  OP   NATIVE  EVANGELISTS  AND  CHTIBCHES. 

''  Mangaia,  December  29, 1864. 

"  Dhab  Fathe&s  and  Bbbthben,  and  all  the  servants  of  Jesus  Christ 
among  the  Churches  in  England :  blessingicmd  i>eace  be  with  you  all,  through 
car  Lord  Jeons  Christ,  our  refuge  and  our  Saviour. 

"  This  letter  is  from  the  Churches  ai  Mangaia.  This  is  what  we  would  say 
toyon:— Z>owe  not  all  hnowthat  the'Peau  o  te  Evangefia,'  'Whuf^qfike 
Qvpd^  we  mean  the  Missionary  Ship,  has  been  lost  &r  down  in  the  de^ 
ivaiers  of  the  ocean  P  Oh,  how  we  have  grieved  to  hear  of  this !  But  in  the 
midst  of  our  grief  we  are  hoping  that  another  ship  will  soon  be  obtained,  to 
carry  the  Word  of  God  and  the  name  of  Jesus  to  lands  still  lying  in  dark- 
mess,  so  that  all  the  heathen  may  know  even  as  we  do,  and  that  they  may 
aH  be  saved. 

"  And  is  it  not  important  that  we  also  should  know  what  is  going  on  in 
ihe  other  islands  of  this  group,  and  in  the  more  distant  islands  amongst  the 
heathen? 

**  Friends  of  Jesus !  what  do  you  think  about  these  things?  This  is  our 
wish,  that  you  seek  for  a  new  ship—a  successor  to  the  i^iip  which  we  have 
lost.  Yon  must  not  Ihink  that  the  Churches  of  these  islands  are  unwilling 
to  assist  you  in  pmH^hasing  a  new  ahi^.  The  ihree  Churches  upon  this,  the 
island  of  Mangaia,  have  collected  400  dollars  (£80) ;  and  how  do  you  think 
this  was  done?  Some  of  the  members  gave  a  few  pounds  of  arrowroolf, 
others  gave  a  gallon  of  cocoa-nut  oil,  some  sold  their  fowls  and  gave  the 
money,  and  some  had  some  money  by  them  and  gave  it.  This  is  what  has 
been  done  by  us  to  help  you. 

"  Friends  of  Jesus !  this  is  another  wish  of  our  hearts :  When  we  shall 
have  obtained  the  new  ship,  let  us  not  forget  the  loving,  parting  words  of  our 
Master,  Jesus  Christ,  when  He  said  to  His  disciples, '  Go  ye  into  all  the  world, 
and  preach  ihe  Gospel  to  every  creature.'  Brethren !  listen  to  this !  There 
are  other  lands,  not  very  far  from  these  islands  in  which  we  dwell,  still  in 
heathenism :  th^  are  csJled  Nukuraerae,  Nukupetau,  and  Yaituku ;  they  are 
in  EUice's  Group ;  and  there  are  many  other  islands  near  to  these,  but  we 
cannot  teU  you  correctly  their  names.  But  we  do  pity  them,  as  they  are  in 
heathen  darkness ;  and  it  is  our  desire  that  some  of  our  young  men  from  the 
Churches  of  these  islands,  Mangaia,  Barotonga,  Aitutaki,  and  Atiu,  should 
be  sent  to  them,  <»urrying  the  Word  of  God,  and  that  they  may  know  it  to 
the  saving  of  their  souk.    B«t,  alas!  we  h«ve  as  yet  no  ship  by  whkh  we 


216  lOflSIONABT  MAGAZINB 

could  Bend  onr  brethren !  and  it  is  our  great  desire,  if  we  get  a  new  ship,  that 
she  may  be  able  to  go  to  these  new  islands,  and  not  only  to  the  islands  which 
the  former  ship  visited. 

"Brethren!  this  is  oar  desire!    Will  joa  not  listen  to  itP    Bleesing  and 
peace  be  with  you  all.    From  the  three  Churches  in  Mangaia.

MAURimJS. 

DEATH  OF  THE  *EEV.   PETER  LE  BRUN. 

The  subject  of  this  notice  has  for  several  years  past  been  associated  with  his 
&ther  and  elder  brother  in  evangelistic  labours  in  Mauritius,  their  mimfltra- 
tions  being  chiefly  among  the  coloured  natives  of  that  island  and  refogeei 
from  Madagascar.  Our  venerable  friend  the  Rev.  John  le  Brun  had  latteriy, 
through  age  and  infirmity,  retired  from  the  active  duties  of  the  Mission,  and 
since  that  period  the  care  of  the  church  and  congregation  at  Port  Louis  has 
devolved  upon  the  Rev.  J.  J.  le  Brun,  whilst  his  brother,  whose  lamented 
death  we  now  announce,  has  continued  to  superintend  the  churches  of  Moka 
and  Plaines  Wilhems. 

Mr.  Peter  le  Brun  was  lately  called  to  sustain  the  loss  of  his  wife ;  and 
since  that  bereavement  he  had  himself  suffered  severely  from  paralysis; 
but  fbr  some  time  previous  to  his  last  seizure  he  had  enjoyed  comparative 
health.  On  Tuesday,  the  31st  of  January,  he  was  attacked  by  iqpoplezy, 
idiich  terminated  in  death  tiie  following  day.  The  suddenness  of  the  erent 
precluded  the  possibility  of  our  dear  brother  bearing  his  dying  testimony  to 
the  sustaining  power  of  the  Gospel;  but  his  surviving  funily  and  friends 
have  the  comfort  and  satisfoction  to  know  that,  when  in  life  and  health,  it 
was  his  chief  delight  to  make  known  far  and  wide  the  preciousness  of  a 
Saviour's  love ;  and  the  multitudes  that  followed  him  to  his  grave  proclaimed 
the  affectionate  esteem  in  which  he  was  held. 

DEATH  OF  REV.  JOHN  LE  BRUN. 

Aftee  labouring  for  the  long  period  of  fifty  years  in  connection  with  fke 
Society's  Mission  at  Mauritius,  this  venerable  servant  of  Ood  has  at  length 
been  called  to  reap  the  reward  of  his  faithful  service.  He  died  on  the  Slst 
of  February,  ult.,  three  weeks  only  after  the  death  of  his  son,  Mr.  Peter  lb 
BniTif,  as  recorded  above.  ''Blessed  are  the  dead  which  die  in  the  Lofd:" 
''  their  works  do  follow  them." 

The  Rev.  J«  J.  le  Beuk,  in  a  letter  dated  Port  Louis,  6th  March»  nit, 
thus  refers  to  the  twoMd  visitation  in  his  fEunilyb;g-^ed  by  V^OOQLC 


FOE  JULY,  1865.  217 

^'  Per  last  mail  it  was  mj  painM  dutj  to  inform  yon  of  the  death  of  my  late 
brother  Peter;  now  again,  with  deep  sorrow,  I  most  record  the  departure 
firom  the  scene  of  his  long  and  successful  ministry  of  your  oldest  missionary. 
Twenty  days  after  the  a£Bdctiye  bereavement  we  so  anxiously  kept  from  him,  my 
very  dear  £Either  fell  asleep  in  Jesus.  He  had  been  ailing  for  a  few  days  before 
the  sad  event  took  place.  We  fondly  thought,  and  hoped,  that  the  means  so 
often  resorted  to  would  have  brought  him  round  again.  On  the  Sunday  pre- 
vious to  his  demise  he  was  remarkably  well.  We  left  him  to  the  care  of  his 
kind  nurse,  to  go  to  chapel;  on  our  return  we  found  him  ill.  In  the  after- 
noon, leaning  on  my  arm,  he  could  walk  to  his  bed  as  usual.  The  doctor  was 
called.  When  he  arrived,  my  dear  father,  to  his  inquiries  about  the  state  of  his 
health,  said,  with  a  sweet  and  angelic  smile  I  shall  never  forget, '  I  am  very 
welL'  All  woi  ioell!  His  thoughts  were  fixed  on  things  above;  whatever 
seemed  to  bring  him  nearer  his  eternal  rest  was  to  him  a  blessing,  not  a 
grievance.  He  was  willing,  he  was  ready  s^  his  Master's  first  call,  to  depart 
and  be  wit^  Christ  Feeling  that  he  was  soon  to  leave  us,  1  asked  him  about 
the  state  of  his  mind.  'Jesus  is  with  me.  I  place  my  whole  trust  in  His  merits 
and  mercy.  All  is  well.'  After  reading  to  and  with  him  the  twenty-third 
Psalm,  I  committed  his  spirit  into  the  hand  of  that  blessed  Saviour  to  whom  he 
dung  to  the  last  with  such  hope,  and  faith,  and  love.  Verily,  he  could  say 
with  the  apostle, '  I  have  fought  a  good  fight,  I  have  finished  my  course,  I 
have  kept  the  faith :  henceforth  there  is  laid  up  for  me  a  crown  of  righteous- 
ness, which  the  Lord,  the  righteous  Judge,  shall  give  me  at  that  day :  and 
not  to  me  only,  but  unto  all  them  also  that  love  His  appearing.' 

**  His  last  moments  were  worthy  oi  his  noble  career  in  the  Mission  field,  of 
self-denial  and  devotedness." 


JAMACIA. 
DEATH  OF  MES.  DALGLIESH. 
Ik  the  year  1842  the  excellent  and  much-lamented  subject  of  this  notice, 
the  wife  of  the  Bev.  John  Daloubsh,  proceeded  in  company  with  her  husband 
to  Berbice.  During  a  residence  of  twenty  years  in  that  colony,  Mr.  Dalgliesh 
rendered  most  valuable  service  to  the  Mission,  and  in  his  varied  labours  he 
derived  great  assistance  from  the  effective  and  earnest  co-operation  of  his 
beloved  wife.  In  the  autumn  of  1862  fiulure  of  health  compelled  our 
friends  to  return  to  England;  but  they  again  embarked  the  year  following 
for  Jamaica,  with  a  view  to  occupy  Chapelton,  an  important  station  in  that 
island.  There,  as  in  Berbice,  Mrs.  Dalgliesh  continued  to  evince  a  deep 
interest  in  the  success  of  the  Mission,  and,  so  far  as  health  and  strength 
permitted,  to  labour  on  its  behalf  until  she  was  called  to  her  rest  and  reward, 
on  the  13th  of  April,  ult.  Mr.  Dalgliesh  has  frimished  some  interesting 
particulars  respecting  our  departed  friend. 

In  a  letter  dated  the  20th  April  he  writes— 

"  My  dear  wife,  who  during  the  last  twenty-two  years  has  laboured  with 
me  in  the  good  work,  has  been  suddenly  called  away.     She  died  on  the 


218  lOSSIONAAY  MAOAZIKB 

evening  of  Thursday,  [the  I3th  instant,  at  half-pastl  seren  o'clock.  For 
rather  more  than  a  year  she  had  not  been  well ;  but  I  had  obtained  the  best 
medical  advice,  and  there  did  not  seem  to  be  much  to  create  serious  alann. 
On  Sunday  the  9th  of  April,  four  days  before  her  death,  she  was  so  wdl  as 
to  be  present  at  the  usual  services,  arrange,  as  was  her  custom,  the  female 
Sunday  School,  and  teach  a  class,  and  she  then  appeared  remarkably  well. 
On  the  Sunday  evening  she  joined  with  me  in  examining  the  Sunday  Scbool 
Lessons  for  the  next  Sunday,  that  we  might  fhmish  them  to  the  teacherSy 
expecting  to  be  absent  at  Davyton.  On  Monday  morning  die  did  not  fed 
very  well,  and  did  not  go  out  to  the  early  Prayer  Meeting.  To  a  friend  who 
remained  with  her  she  expressed  the  conviction  that  she  would  soon  join  her 
children,  with  other  departed  friends,  in  glory ;  and  when  her  son  went  to 
bid  her  good-bye,  before  going  to  his  place  of  business,  she  said, '  C^ood-bye; 
and  if  we  don't  meet  again  here,  I  hope  we  shall  meet  in  heaven.'  3ie  was 
so  well  during  the  day  as  to  com^  for  a  short  time  into  the  Bay  School,  in 
which  she  was  accustomed  to  spend  much  of  her  time.  Early  on  Tuesday 
morning  she  was  taken  ill.  I  resorted  to  tiie  usual  remedies,  and  she 
appeared  to  rally,  but  not  long  afterwards  sunk  into  a  state  of  unconseioiiit- 
ness,  in  which  she  remained  till  the  time  of  her  death.  That  being  the  case, 
there  was  no  dying  testimony  beyond  the  declaration  on  the  Monday  mommg.of 
her  entire  dependence  on  the  mercy  of  Qod,  flowing  through  the  atonement  of 
Jesus.  But  there  was  a  life  of  entire  consecration  to  the  service  of  &e 
Bedeemer.  The  first  time  I  saw  her,  twenty-four  years  ago,  she  was  labouring 
in  the  cause  of  Christ  in  the  Sunday  School  in  London,  and  the  last  Sabbath 
of  her  life  was  spent  in  the  same  way  in  Jamaica.  During  the  interval  her 
entire  consecration  to  her  Master's  work  was  very  marked,  and  not  a  few  in 
the  Mission  field  will  have  cause  to  bless  God  on  her  behalf  througfaont 
eternity.  She  laboured  incessantly  for  their  spiritual  welfare,  and  these 
labours  were  fax  from  being  in  vain.  She  was  a  thorough  missionary,  and 
entered  with  her  whole  soul  in  all  that  concerned  the  wdfare  of  the  Mission. 
In  her  wisdom  and  prudence  I  could  always  traflt»  and  never  once  had  cante 
to  regret  following  her  advice,  fflie  felt  great  anzieiy  for  the  suocesa  <^  the 
lOssLon  here,  and  greatly  cheered  me  in  my  somewhat  difficult  undertaking. 
She  looked  forward  with  great  pleasure  to  the  time  when  we  should  be  able  to 
occupy  our  new  school-house ;  but,  alas !  the  day  of  its  opening  was  to  be  the 
day  on  which  her  fimeral  sermon  should  be  preached,  and  ten  days  after  she 
had  been  laid  in  the  grave.  I  have  lost  an  excellent  wife,  our  children  a 
tender,  loving  mother,  and  the  London  Missionary  Society  a  most  devoted, 
laborious  agent.  t)ur  loss  I  know  is  her  gain ;  and  we  can  only  say, '  Tbe 
will  of  the  Lord  be  done.' "

CHRONICLE. 


INDIA. 

We  feel  assured  that  our  readers  will  receive  with  great  interest  and  satis- 
faction the  following  statement  of  Sir  Hebbebt  Edwaedes,  made  on  his 
recent  arrival  from  India.  It  would  be  difficult  to  find  a  witness  who  has 
enjoyed  equal  opportunities  for  forming  correct  opinions  on  the  state  and 
prospects  of  that  vast  empire,  or  one  more  sincerely  concerned  for  the 
improvement  and  happiness  of  all  classes  of  our  Indian  fellow-subjects.  Sir 
Herbert  has  spent  the  greater  part  of  his  life  in  India,  and,  while  he  has 
Thatched  the  progress  of  providential  events,  he  has  had  the  great  happiness 
of  aiding  in  a  high  degree  the  onward  course  of  the  people  in  social  improve- 
ment and  religious  inquiry.  It  is  evident  that  the  fearful  mutiny,  though 
destructive  of  the  lives  of  thousands  and  hundreds  of  thousands,  has  been 
followed  by  results  of  great  value,  and  the  influence  of  which  is  only  begin- 
ning to  be  seen  and  felt,  but  which  afford  brighter  and  larger  prospects  for 
the  coming  generation. 

ADDBES8  OF  SIB   HEBBEBT  EDWABDES,  K.C.B., 

TO  THE  COMMITTEE  OP  THE  CHUBCH  MI88IONABY  SOCIETY,  ON  HIS 

BECENT  BETUBN  7BOM  INDIA. 

*'  Sib  Hebbebt  said  that  he  should  characterize  the  present  state  of  India  as 
one  of  activity  and  thought.  A  general  thaw  seemed  to  have  set  in,  and  the 
native  mind  to  be  set  free.  The  mutiny  of  the  Indian  army  has  been  one 
great  cause  of  this.  Before  that  event  thei*e  was  a  kind  of  instinctive  feeling 
in  Indian  society  that  trouble  was  impending;  and  wealthy  natives  held  back, 
and  hoarded  their  money  till  they  could  see  the  issue.  The  native  army  was 
the  impending  trouble.  It  had  overgrown  the  European  element ;  and  at  last 
it  turned  upon  its  masters,  and  tried  to  drive  them  out  of  India.  The 
Sepoys  had  everything  in  their  favour,  yet  they  failet^^i^^  every  disaffected 
VOL.  XXIX. — 1865.  L

class  in  Indi%  confessed  the  failure  and  accepted  the  situation.  The'  whole 
country  felt  that  the  straggle  was  over,  at  anj  rate,  for  the  present.  The  air 
was  cleared;  peace  was  restored ;  and  progress  became  possible.  The  result 
has  been  a  marked  actiyity  in  commerce,  administration,  educaticm,  material 
prosperity,  and  religioiui  movement. 

"  In  commerce  money  had  been  xmlocked  and  unearthed,  and  embarked  in  a 
perfect  revulsion  of  enterprise.  The  American  war  arose  at  this  very  crisis. 
The  cotton  demand  ensued:  European  capital  flowed  into  India;  and  in 
Bombay  alone  it  is  calculated  that  thirty  millions  sterling  of  clear  profit  have 
been  reaped,  chiefly  by  native  capitalists,  in  the  last  three  years.  Nor  was 
the  profit  confined  to  the  capitalists.  Happily  the  agricultural  classes  had 
shared  largely  in  the  harvest.  They  found  out  the  use  of  the  telegraph  once 
more.  In  Umritsur,  the  commercial  capital  of  the  Punjab,  the  daily  telegram 
from  Bombay  as  to  the  state  of  the  market  had  been  looked  for  with  the 
keenest  excitement,  and  the  quotations  soon  spread  into  the  villages.  The 
cultivators  never  met  a  European  official  without  eagerly  inquiring  the  latest 
news  from  America;  and  thus,  incidentally,  the  minds  of  the  whole  i>eople 
had  been  opened  to  the  vast  importance  of  both  Europe  and  America,  and  the 
dependence  of  all  countries  on  each  other.  The  great  influx  of  Europeans 
into  India,  in  all  branches  of  enterprise,  and  unconnected  with  Govemmenty 
though  it  had  its  attendant  evils,  undoubtedly,  on  the  whole,  did  g^ood.  Tha 
undertakings  which  were  set  on  foot  throughout  the  country  associated 
natives  and  Europeans  together  in  the  common  bond  of  self-interest.  There 
is  a  tendency  for  the  stronger  to  overbear  the  weaker  race ;  but  laws  were 
stronger  than  either;  and  there  is,  and  has  been,  in  the  highest  quarters,  a 
thorough  determination  to  do  justice  between  the  races  without  fear  or 
faivour. 

'*  In  the  departments  of  aahmnistraUon  the  Government  itself  was  settiii^ 
the  example  of  activity.  It  waa  pr^Mudng  steadily  for  the  permanent  settle- 
ment of  the  land  revenue ;  a  measure  which,  by  its  results,  would  constitiite 
a  new  era,  and  advance  alike  the  prosperity  of  natives  and  Eur(q>ean8.  The 
reforms  in  the  judicial  department  were  so  extensive,  and  the  improvements 
daily  demanded  by  the  European  voice  were  so  many  and  refined,  that  a 
result  little  expected  would  probably  ensue ;  viz.,  the  increased  admission  of 
natives  to  boi^  bar  and  bench.  The  revenues  of  India  could  never  meet 
the  demands  of  the  judicial  reformecB  if  the  English  dement  were  to  be 
increased. 

''  The  material  prosperity  of  the  coontiy  was  being  yearly  developed  in  an 
astonishing  manner  by  the  progress  of  the  g^reat  system  of  railways,  opening 
up  new  parts  of  the  country,  bringing  produce  to  new  markets,  equalizing 
prices,  diminishing  famine,  and  leading  natives  to  travel.  The  very  merit  of 
pilgrimages  was  being  smoothed  away. 

**  Education  was  both  impelling  and  being  impelled  by  all  these  changes. 
There  was  a  perfect  avidity  for  learning  English.  Self-interest,  as  usual,  was  at 
the  bottom  of  it.  Sir  Herbert  remembered,  some  years  ago,  a  native  pupQ  in 
the  Peshawur  Mission  School  writing  in  his  copy-book  that  *  Knowledge  was 
the  root  of  all  money ;'  and,  nowadays,  knowledge  of  English  is  found  to  be  the 
root  of  all  employment  in  the  judicial  and  railway  ^egaj-Jajjig^^Q.^t  present

the  Bengalis,  having  got  the  start  in  education,  were  profiting  bj  the  demand 
for  natives  who  oan  read  and  write  Enghah.  But  the  Puiijabis  are  determined 
to  resist  this  incursion,  and  are  making  great  efforts  to  teach  their  childrea 
Snglish.  In  Sir  Herbert's  own  district  of  Umballa  the  American  Missionary 
had  opened  a  night  school,  to  give  instruction  in  English  to  adults,  after  all 
the  labours  of  the  day ;  and  amongst  the  pupils  were  middle-aged  Government 
officials,  trying  to  keep  up  with  the  age. 

"And,  lastly,  as  to  the  religions  of  the  country,  both  Mohammedans  and 
Hjndus  were  agitated  by  reforming  movements,  though  of  widely  different 
character.  The  Mohammedan  reform  was  an  aggressive  moyement.  Its 
anthoTB  were  the  Wahabis,  who  strove  toreviTe  the  Kor&n  in  all  its  strictness 
said  bigotry.  They  called  on  the  Modem  to  lay  aside  all  worship  of  saints 
and  relics ;  to  cease  to  attribute  to  them  the  powers  of  healing  and  of  miracles, 
which  belonged  only  to  the  one  Creator;  and  to  draw  off  from  all  connection 
with  infidels.  This  latter  doctrine  is  aimed  at  the  English,  and  has  already 
produced  much  political  trouble.  A  crescentade  has  been  preached  through- 
out the  villages  of  Bengal;  hundreds  of  disciples  have  been  deluded  into 
leaving  their  country,  and  going  to  a  Wahabi  colony  in  Afghanistan,  beyond 
the  British  border ;  thence  to  make  attacks  upon  the  British  Gk)remment  at 
fea,8ible  moments,  and  unsettle  the  mind  of  India.  The  Hindu  reformers — 
the  Brahma  Som&j — were  not  actuated  by  hostility  to  the  English.  On  the 
contrary,  they  had  learned  from  the  English  to  reform  manners  and  customs, 
reject  caste  and  many  obnoxious  usages.  So  earnest  are  they,  that  they  send 
out  their  ablest  men  to  Madras  and  Bombay,  to  spread  the  movement ;  and, 
though  they  do  not  admit  that  they  have  drawn  their  inspiration  from  any- 
where but  their  own  ancient  books.  Sir  Herbert  "considered  it  the  greatest 
homage  to  Christianity  that  had  yet  been  paid  in  India.  On  the  whole,  Sir 
Herbert  regarded  the  activity  of  thought  now  to  be  seen  in  India  as  most 
hopeftd  for  Mission  work.  Efforts  should  be  doubled,  not  relaxed,  at  such  a 
crisis ;  and  education,  both  religious  and  secular,  should  be  helped  by  all,  as 
a  powerful  agency  for  good.  He  hoped  and  believed  we  might  all  live  to  see 
Christianity  indigenmis  in  India."

no  kind  of  intelligence  can  be  more  important  or  satisfactory  than  that  wbroh 
is  here  given  of  the  multiplication  of  these  Christian  communities  and  the 
Scriptural  efforts  they  are  putting  forth  towards  meeting  the  salaries  of  their 
pastors  and  the  expenses  attendant  upon  Christian  worship.  May  "  the  Httle

"  Bhowanipore,  June  7th,  1865. 

"  Mt  deab  Fbiekd, — ^You  are  aware  that,  four  years  ago,  the  missionaries 
of  the  Society  in  this  city  enjoyed  the  privilege  of  ordaining  to  the  miniatiy 
three  of  the  native  brethren,  who  had  been  both  specially  trained  for  the  office 
and  for  a  considerable  period  practically  engaged  in  missionary  work.  Of 
these,  one  was  chosen  pastor  of  the  native  church  at  this  station ;  another  was 
appointed  a  missionary  to  the  heathen  in  the  northern  part  of  the  city;  and 
the  third  received  pastoral  charge  of  the  village  churches  over  which  Mr. 
Ijacroix  watched  with  aifection  and  faithfulness  for  a  long  series  of  years. 

"  From  time  to  time  our  letters  and  reports  have  continued  to  record  the 
great  satisfaction  with  which  the  members  of  the  Mission  have  watched  the 
labours  of  these  native  brethren.  Their  consistency,  fidelity,  and  diligence, 
and  the  true-hearted  watchfulness  with  which  they  have  sought  to  care  for 
the  spiritual  welfare  of  their  flocks,  have  year  by  year  added  to  their  usefdl- 
ness,  and  given  them  a  secure  place  in  the  affections  of  their  people.  They 
never  stood  so  high  in  our  confidence  and  regard  as  they  do  now ;  nor  could 
we  ever  indulge  such  a  strong  assurance  as  we  do  now  that  the  grace' which 
has  raised  them  to  their  present  position  will  be  supplied  according  to  their 
need,  and  will  preserve  them  faithfdl  to  the  end. 

"  It  is  for  the  youngest  of  these  pastors,  the  Bev.  Sttrjokitmak  Gho8b» 
that  the  native  church  at  Bhowanipore  are  seeking  to  build  a  new  chapel  and 
parsonage.  The  eldest,  the  Rev.  EZashinath  Dutt,  a  year  ago  was  removed 
to  Benares,  where  the  illness  of  our  colleagues  left  their  important  English 
school  very  weak ;  and,  from  his  previous  experience  as  a  teacher,  he  has  since 
given  to  the  Mission  most  efficient  and  acceptable  service.  To  the  work  of 
the  third,  the  Rev.  Taeaphosad  Chattabjea,  my  attention  has  been 
specially  drawn  of  late,  and  I  have  thought  that  you  would  be  intei*e8ted  in  a 
few  particulars  respecting  that  work  in  the  native  churches  and  numerous 
villages  which  he  faithfully  and  wisely  superint^ids. 

"  Our  excellent  brother  lives  among  his  people.  His  station  is  EIaobapukub, 
about  four  miles  south  of  Calcutta,  at  the  edge  of  the  great  rice-plain,  and  on 
the  banks  of  a  small  creek,  which  Mr.  Lacroix  used  to  traverse  every  week  in 
the  long  Mission  canoe.  Easily  accessible  from  Calcutta  by  a  fair  carriage- 
road,  and  only  throe-quarters  of  an  hour  distant,  it  is  peculiarly  well  placed 
for  conmiimication  with  the  many  villages  by  which  the  rice-plain  is  studded. 
It  is  called  by  the.  people  themselves  'The  Gate  of  the  South,'  and  fully 
deserves  the  name.  The  Mission  was  commenced  here  about  seven  years  ago, 
by  Mr.  William  Hill,  and.  by  degrees,  all  the  elements  of  a  complete  station 
have  been  gathered.  At  the  side  of  a  large  tank,  which  famishes  the  village 
with  good  drinking-water,  is  built  a  pretty  brick  house,  of  four  rooms,  for  the 
pastor's  residence.  Near  one  comer  is  the  chapel,  erected  with  solid  walls  of 
mud,  and  roofed  and  thatched  with  palm-tree  beams  and  coco^^f^l^vea. 


FOR  AUGUST,  1865.  225 

"  A  year  ago  the  chapel  was  almost  entirely  destroyed  by  the  httrrioane  of 
October ;  while  the  pastor's  house  proved  almost  the  only  solid  shelter  for 
many  miles,  and  was  crowded  with  the  villagers,  whose  own  frail  huts  had 
been  swept  away  by  the  ruthless  storm.  The  chapel  has  since  been  quite 
restored ;  and,  both  at  its  original  erection  and  its  repair,  the  native  Christians 
contributed  labour  and  money  towards  its  completion.  Houses  for  the  cate* 
chist,  schoolmaster,  theological  students,  girls  in  the  little  boarding-school, 
and  the  Christian  families,  stand  around  the  Mission  premises.  Various 
families  have  removed  here  from  other  places,  and  now  the  pastor  has  around 
him  a  flourishing  community  of  a  hundred  and  twenty  people,  and  the  church 
numbers  thirty  members.  The  establishment  of  this  station  as  the  head- 
quarters of  oui*  village  missions  in  South  Bengal  has  been  one  of  the  most 
successful  steps  for  their  improvement  adopted  by  the  Mission  of  late  years. 

"  That  it  has  proved  so  is,  under  Qod,*a  blessing,  almost  entirely  due  to  the 
wisdom,  piety,  and  devoted  earnestness  with  which  our  excellent  brother, 
Mr.  Chatterjea,  has  endeavoured  to  fiilfll  his  ministry.  For  four  years  he 
has  been  pastor  of  these  scattered  flocks.  To  their  great  astonishment,  from 
the  very  outset,  instead  of  encouraging  them  to  depend  for  their  expenses  on 
the  local  auxiliary,  he  urged  them  forward  to  efforts  towards  supporting  the 
ordinances  of  the  Gk>spel  themselves.  This  was  a  new  thing,  and,  coming 
as  it  did  from  a  native  minister,  excited  a  great  deal  of  discontent.  His 
discipline  has  been  very  strict,  though  kind,  and  administered  with  great 
judgment :  his  instructions  are  plain,  earnest,  and  high  in  tone :  he  makes  no 
compromises  with  sin.  For  a  long  time  his  constant  prayer  was,  that  all 
hidden  sin  among  his  people  that  was  hindering  their  growth  might  be  brought 
to  light.  And  in  remarkable  ways  has  that  prayer  been  heard.  I  am  glad 
to  know  that  his  manly  views  and  his  earnest  efforts  are  beginning  to  be 
appreciated.  The  affection  of  his  people  is  growing  strong,  and  they  give  him 
their  hearty  confidence.  Not  only  so,  but  he  is  held  in  very  high  regard  by 
the  converts  of  other  churches,  and  by  his  Hindu  neighbours;  and  all  classes 
around  him  frequently  seek  his  counsel  in  their  difficulties.  His  last  report 
contains  a  proof  of  very  gratifying  progress  in  respect  to  the  contributions  of 
his  people.  For  a  long  series  of  years  they  would  give  nothing  even  towards 
the  simplest  elements  of  their  own  worship,  chapel  repairs,  and  the  like* 
Our  Society  bought  the  very  mats  on  which  they  sat  in  church.  All  that  is 
changed.  In  1864  Mr.  Chatteijea  received  from  them  120  rupees  for  church 
purposes ;  and  last  year  they  gave  a  huTidred  and  eighty-seven  I  The  principles 
also  on  which  Christian  liberality  is  based  are  making  way;  and  the  duty  of 
exercising  it  is  being  understood.  He  thus  gives  the  particulars,  which  I 
quote  with  peculiar  pleasure,  because  they  stand  out  in  such  bold  contrast  to 
tlie  foimer  proceedings  of  these  Churches : — 

*'  *  One  thing  is  certain,  that  Christians  ought  to  do  something  for  their 
religion ;  and  that  something  these  people  have  already  commenced  to  do. 
The  Church  at  Bammakhalchoke  this  year  twice  repaired  their  place  of 
-w^orship,  and  also  helped  their  poor.  The  Church  at  Grangrai,  a  little  before 
the  hurricane,  gave  to  their  pastor  twenty-five  rupees  for  the  repair  of  their 
place  of  worship,  bought  mats  for  the  use  of  their  school  boys,  and  supported 
their  poor,  widows,  &c.    The  Church  at  Balliahatty  repaired  their  chapel  and 


226  KISSIONASY  MAGAZmrE 

gave  aid  to  the  poor.  The  Ohnroh  at  Kanrapooknr  gare  aboat  sixteen  rapeee 
in  oaah  for  the  btiilding  of  their  place  of  worship ;  almost  erery  male  w<»rked 
£Dr  a  daj,  a  few  worked  for  two  dajs,  and  four  women,  three  of  whom  are 
oharch  members,  worked  for  two  days,  in  putting  mud  plaster  on  the  new 
rough  walls  fcMr  nothing.  This  Ohureh  materiallj  helped  a  new  convert,  and 
gare  help  to  their  poor,  and  bought  eight  "new  mats,  worth  five  rupees,  f<nr  the 
ohapd  use,  and  also  collected  thirtj  rupees  to  feast  their  brethren  at  the 
time  of  the  opening  of  their  new  place  of  worship.  Burelj  this  is  a  good 
beginning!' 

''Oar  brother's  rq>ort  of  his  people  is  like  himself,  open,  manly,  and  honest. 
He  puts  in  plainest  figures  the  disagreeable  fa^,  that  at  one  of  his  stations!, 
containing  340  Christians  of  aU  ages,  only  ifty  go  to  church ;  and  Uiai 
out  of  740  Christians  in  all,  the  congregaitions  at  worship  average  only  220. 
Yet  has  he  to  add,  that  he  baptized  last  year  fifteen  adults,  and  received  nine- 
teen members  into  his  four  Churches. 

"  In  prospect  of  my  early  departure  from  Calcutta,  last  Sabbath  I  went 
over  with  my  daughter  to  his  station  to  conduct  the  morning  service,  and 
take  furewell  of  his  people.  At  eight  o'clock  a  veiy  nice  congr^ation  of 
-about  a  hundred  persons  gathered  in  the  chapd.  After  the  sermon,  I  had 
the  privil^^  of  baptizing  six  adult  heathen,  our  hrothef^s  first  eonverU  from 
this  locality y  and  six  children  of  the  Christian  families  of  the  place.  I  then 
administered  the  Lcnrd's  Supper ;  and  thirty  native  members  were  present, 
besides  the  pastor  and  his  excellent  wilSs.  At  the  dose  of  the  service  the 
members  presented  to  me,  as  a  parting  gift,  a  copy  of  the  new  editioB  of  the 
Bengali  Bible,  purchased  by  tiianselves.  Thanking  me  for  the  interest  I 
have  felt  in  thdr  prosperity  during  the  twenty-one  years  of  my  reeodenee 
here,  they  e]q>re88ed  their  great  regret  at  my  leaving ;  but,  at  the  same  tinie, 
Tcrjoiced  that  I  was  going  to  serve  the  Society  at  home.  They  spoke  gratefoU^ 
and  affectionatdy  of  him  who  had  been  their  helper  so  long,  but  who,  like 
their  own  parents  and  dder  members,  was,  six  years  ago,  called  ta  his  rest ; 
«nd  begged  that  I  would  remember  them  still,  and  uphold  the  hands  c^  their 
past(»T  in  his  efforts  for  their  good. 

'*  I  feel  quite  sure  that  the  Directors  will  observe  with  thankfyness  and 
4Mtisfaeti<m  the  blessing  with  which  this  first  native  pastorate  of  our  village 
Ohurdies  has  been  followed.  I  feel  sure  that  they  will  give  a  ^ill  measure  ef 
their  confidence  and  affection  to  our  dear  brother,  who,  amidst  many  dis- 
couragements, from  a  state  of  principle  and  CSiristian  knowledge  ftur  below 
his  own,  is  striving  to  elevate  the  tone  of  their  piety  and  lead  them  <m  to 
excellence.  I  desire  nothifag  in  our  Mission  work  so  much  as  lib^^  Native 
Churches  and  a  good  Native  Ministry.  And  when  I  see  the  men  whom  tibe 
Spirit  of  Grod  has  raised  up  in  our  own  Mission  during  the  last  ten  years,  I 
*  thank  Grod  and  take  courage.'

CHINA. 

<3hina  is  still  for  the  greater  part  an  unexplored  region.  A  few  cities  only 
on  its  extended  coasts  are  yet  fully  known  to  European  travellers.  We  are, 
therefore^  gratified  that  Christian  missionaries  should,  in  the  prosecution  of 
their  beneyolent  purpose,  penetrate  the  interior  provinces  and  give  us  the 
benefit  of  their  itinerancies.  It  must  indeed  be  most  desirable  that  the 
<«peoimenB  of  Western  character  first  presented  to  the  Chinese  should  be  £»uad 
in  alliance  with  Christian  intelliganoe  and  works  of  mercy.  Too  oftea,  we 
fear,  it  has  been  seen  deformed  and  polluted  by  European  cupidity  and  viee. 
The  habits  and  dispositions  of  the  people,  as  exhibited  in  the  journal  of 
Messrs.  Lees  and  Hall,  from  which  we  give  extracts,  afford  great  encourage- 
ment to  extend  such  visitations.  The  people  are  happily  free  from  the 
bondage  of  caste,  and  the  debaung  influence  of  idolatry  and  superstition, 
such  as  prevail  over  the  millions  of  India ;  while  their  characteristic  inquiai- 
tiveness  and  sociality  afford  great  fJEUolities  jud  enoouragemente  to  the  Christian 
^teacher.

•*  Saturday,  2Srd  April— ^e  Rev.  W.  K.  Hall  and  myself  started  at  4  p.m. 
io«day  for  a  fortnight's  trip.  We  propose  to  make  Pau-ting-fa,  the  provincial 
capital,  our  bourn,  but  may  possibly  get  fEu-ther.  Our  main  object  is  to 
recruit  Hall's  strength,  which  is  reduced  by  his  late  illness.  I,  of  course, 
shall  work  as  opportunity  presents  itself.  To  help  in  preaching  and  distri- 
bution'of  books  we  have  with  us  Chang,  one  of  HalTs  men.  Mr.  Linocent 
accompanied  us  as  far  as  the  junction  of  the  Peiho  with  the  Grand  Canal.  At 
this  point  stand  the  buildings  of  the  Boman  Catholic  Mission.  These  are 
splendidly  situated  in  some  respects,  being  well  elevated,  and  commanding  a 
fine  view  down  the  river ;  but,  not  being  among  the  population,  for  public 
services,  should  they  ever  hold  them,  they  will  need  other  accommodation. 

BIVBm  NAVIOATKNir. 

"  We  were  struck,  as  often  before,  with  the  enormous  population  upon  the 
river's  bank.  On  this  side  of  the  ciiy  the  villages  lie  close  together,  forming 
one  continuous  suburb,  which  stretches  several  miles^  We  need  not  leave 
home  to  seek  work.  Large  river  junks  by  hundreds  Kned  the  bank.  These 
were  awaiting  the  grain  vessels  from  the  south,  which  are  too  unwieldy  to  get 
up  to  the  imperial  d^pftts  of  Tnng-diau.  The  wheat,  &c.,  is  therefore  trans* 
•  ferred  to  smalla'  craft  at  Tien-tsin. 

"  What  a  horrible  noise  I  We  told  the  maoi  it  was '  not  good  to  hear ;'  but 
he  appeared  to  think  his  taste  better  than  ours,  and  took  no  notice.  He  was

a  sort  of  jojons  aimotiiioement  of  liis  return.  The  practice  is  nearly  imiTersal 
among  the  boatmen. 

"  Passing  a  stream,  known  as  the  Lower  West  Biver  (marked  in  maps  as 
the  Hoo-to),  and  which  is  water  ronte  to  Ho-chien-fn,  we  at  length  reached 
the  point  where  the  Upper  West  Biver,  or  the  Ta-ching,  falls  into  the  Peiho. 
Leaving  the  main  stream,  we  entered  the  tributary,  but  had  soon  to  leave 
this,  turning  up  what  looked  a  mere  rivulet,  but  which  proved  to  be  a  sort  of 
canal,  kept  in  order  by  the  salt-merchants  of  Tien-tsin,  in  order  to  help  them 
in  bringing  down  mats,  &c.,  from  the  interior.  It  appears  that,  though 
broad,  the  Ta-ching,  between  this  point  and  the  Ta-ching  Lake,  is  usually  too 
shallow  for  navigation. 

FLOATING  STACKS  OF  BUSHES. 

**  Sunday,  April  24^A. — ^We  awakened  to  find  that  our  canal  had  widened 
into  a  morass,  and  that  the  boat  was  anchored  to  a  bank  some  three  feet 
wide.  It  was  a  curiouB  place :  on  either  hand  were  large  lagoons  in  which 
grew  enormous  quantities  of  the  large  reeds  used  for  burning.  In  the  centre 
ran  the  canal,  separated  from  these  reed-ponds  by  the  narrow  bank  jnst 
named,  and  which  is  kept  in  imperfect  repair  as  a  towing-path.  A  few  yards 
farther  off  is  a  ferry,  which  has  all  day  presented  a  busy  scene,  and  made  ns 
wonder  where  all  the  people  come  from.  The  nearest  village  is  on  the  banks 
of  the  Grand  Canal,  two  miles  away;  the  next  nearest  is  on  the  north,  not  less 
than  five  miles  distant :  yet  it  is  anjrthing  but  solitary.  Not  only  has  there 
been  at  the  ferry  an  imceasing  stream  of  peasants  with  their  cattle,  market 
people,  huwkers,  loaded  and  empty  carts,  Sic,,  but  the  sound  of  mule-bells 
and  the  cries  of  shepherds  have  been  constant  from  the  shore,  and  the  river 
itself  hafi  been  thronged  with  boats.  Not  less  than  forty  sail  have  nsuallj 
been  visible  at  once;  and,  as  they  soon  come  up  with  the  fair  wind  and  pass 
us,  many  hundreds  must  have  gone  by  iih  the  course  of  the  day.  Some  of 
them  look  strange  enough.  I  could  think  of  nothing  but  a  lot  of  gigantic 
straw  stacks  which  had  somehow  got  adrift.  These  floating  stacks  were 
formed  of  rushes  bound  into  bundles,  which  are  taken  in  large  quantities  to 
Tien-tsin  for  hedging  and  burning.  They  form  the  only  fuel  of  the  poor,  and 
at  times  even  this  resource  is  beyond  their  reach.  Many  stacks  were  seventy 
or  eighty  feet  long,  by  twenty  broad,  and  as  many  high.  To  enable  them  to 
float  this  pile,  two,  and  in  some  cases  four  boats  are  lashed  together.  A  small 
mat  sail  is  perhaps  hoisted  on  the  top ;  but  usually  one  or  more  half-naked 
men  act  as  mules  and  tow,  while  another  stands  at  the  stem  with  a  long  boat- 
hook  to  push. 

OPENING  THE  GOSPEL  MESSAGE    IN  A  NEW  REGION. 

"  Other  boats  are  devoted  to  passengers.  These  are  ofboi  crowded.  On 
inquiiy  we  heard  that  the  occupants  of  most  were  going  to  the  great  annual 
festival  of  the  '  Queen  of  Heaven '  at  Tien-tsin  ;^not  a  few  having  come  as 
much  as  200  English  miles !  The  presence  of  many  women,  old  and  young», 
formed  a  curious  commentary  upon  the  professed  exclusivenessof  Chineaesocial 
life.  This  morning  we  had  a  little  service  on  the  boat  with  our  men,  and  then 
settled  down  to  a  quiet  read.    Later  on,  we  resolved  to  visit  Yang-lin-ching,

the  nearest  village,  and  therefore  took  the  ferry.  A  mile's  walk  brought  ns 
to  the  bank  of  the  Hoo-to,  and  to  another  ferry,  which  we  also  crossed.  So 
far  we  had  not  passed  a  house,  but  the  road  was  lined  with  traffic. 

"  We  found  the  village  a  town,  having  probably  not  less  than  25,000  people. 
It  was  plain  that  a  foreigner  was  a  rara  avis  in  the  neighbourhood;  and,  indeed, 
missionaries  have  only  'passed  through'  once  or  twice  on  their  way  bo  distant 
centrea  We  saw  at  once  that  here,  within  easy  reach  of  our  home,  is  an 
admirable  position  for  an  out-station.  Young  and  old  flocked  round  in 
crowds.  We  made  our  way  to  the  principal  temples.  In  one  of  the  side- 
buildings  was  a  native  school  with  more  than  thirty  scholars.  The  teacher, 
an  intelligent,  pleasant-looking  man,  candidly  owned  to  having  no  literary 
rank;  but  the  state  of  his  school  proved  him  to  be  a  man  of  some  ability. 
There  are  said  to  be  forty  schools  in  the  place ;  but  many  are,  of  course, 
much  smaller.  This  one  is  supported  by  a  wealthy  resident ;  the  scholars, 
however,  paying  a  small  fee.    The  teacher  receives  100  dollars  a  year. 

"  Leaving  the  school,  we  took  our  stand  under  the  arched  gateway;  but  the 
over-anxiety  of  the  people,  and  especially  of  the  children,  to  see  and  hear  the 
*  red-haired '  made  it  hard  work  to  get  a  hearing.  One  often  wonders  what 
sort  of  notions  men  can  carry  away  firom  such  an  address.  Mr.  Hall  overheard 
one  explaining  what  he  had  heard  to  a  new-comer.  '  Yery  good  docti*ine ; 
very  good  indeed,'  said  he.  '  Just  like  our  own  books.  He  is  urging  men  not 
to  steal,  or  tell  lies,  or  commit  adultery;  but  to  reverence  their  pai*ents,  and 
-worship  heaven  and  earth ' !  Seeing  that  the  question  of  filial  duty  had  never 
been  named,  and  that  I  certainly  had  not  been  anxious  to  make  them  what 
they  were  already,  the  description  was  amusing.  Still,  if  but  one  hearer 
should  cai*ry  away  the  bare  fact  that  Jesus  died  to  atone  for  his  sin,  he  would 
have  enough,  in  the  hands  of  the  Divine  Spirit,  to  convert  and  save  him. 
And  who  knows  ?  Nay,  we  have  many  proofs  that  not  a  few  leam  more  than 
this.    At  any  rate,  it  is  ours  to  work  in  fedth,  and  leave  results  to  €k>d. 

"  Our  next  audience  was  in  what  seemed  a  well-sheltered  spot,  but  which 
proved  unluckily  a  busy  thoroughfiEU-e.  However,  a  large  crowd  again  collected, 
and  were  apparently  interested  by  the  story  of  Grethsemane,  and  its  meaning, 
-which  I  tried  to  give  them.  A  shopkeeper  showed  us  much  attention,  bringing 
us  a  form  to  sit  upon,  and  eagerly  offering  tea.  We  were  escorted  back  to 
our  boat  by  a  detachment  of  youngsters.  These  children,  many  of  them 
sliarp,  happy-looking  lads,  often  cany  me  vividly  back  to  by-gone  days. 
One's  heart  aches  to  think  that  they  will  grow  up,  live,  and  die  idolaters.  Is 
there  no  means  of  saving  them?  Oh!  when  will  poor  China  have  her  Sunday 
and  ragged  schools  P  Alas !  the  very  vastness  of  this  harvest-field  seems  to 
paralyse  the  Church,  and  she  spends  her  main  strength  on  more  manageable^ 
'because  smaller,  races.    The  policy  is  a  doubtful  one.    Bome  knows  better* 

A  WILLOW-PLANTATIOir. 

"  After  tea  we  had  a  quiet  walk.  The  little  path  we  followed  led  at  length 
to  a  large  willow-plantation,  which,  we  were  assured,  covered  seventy  Chinese,. 
OT  about  eleven  English,  acres.  The  trees  were  ranged  in  regular  avenues, 
each  some  four  yards  wide,  and  had  a  pretty  effect.  Between  each  row  were 
planted  young  diioots,  as  though  for  another  crop.   Our  perplexi^  as  to  their

a  nnmber  of  snoh  {dantations  near  here.  The  willows  are  grown  to  bum  for 
charcoal.  Erery  three  years  the  timber  is  cut,  and  the  fdel  prepared  in  a  sort 
f^kiln  bnilt  of  brick  for  the  purpose.  Such  a  plantation  gives  constant  work 
to  at  least  twenty  hands. 

A  PIGTTJBBSQUE  SOEN£. 

*' Monday,  A^l  ^th. — I  hare  christened  oar  anchorage  'The  Paradise 
of  Frogs.'  Never  sorely  was  there  heard  such  a  croaking.  We  have  it 
in  the  daytime;  but  at  night !*--one  would  fancy  a  carnival,  and  all  Frog* 
land  guests.  But  then,  like  much  htunan  music,  one  needs  a  trained 
efiJT  to  e^joy  it.  Our  men  pulled  up  anchor,  I  fear,  before  midnight,  and 
have  been  at  work  ever  since.  At  5  a.m.  I  found  that  we  were  just  out  of 
the  creek,  and  anchored  on  the  shcnre  of  the  large  fresh-water  lake  marked 
in  maps  as  the  'Ta-ching  Lake,'  and  to  which  allusion  has  before  been 
made.  The  day  has  again  proved  full  of  interest.  I  was  on  deck  before 
sir,  and  greatly  enjoyed  the  prospect — ^to  our  eyes  singular  enough.  This 
body  of  water  is  beautifully  d^ur;  one  can  see  every  weed  at  the  bottom;  and 
the  large  masses  of  green  reeds,  now  just  peeping  above  the  surface,  by-and* 
by  to  grow  into  mimic  forests ;  the  numberless  fowl,  the  fishing-boats,  the 
white  sails  of  trading  junks  in  the  distance,  with  the  numerous  villages^  half 
buried  in  bright  green  foliage,  upon  the  horizon,  and  the  gorgeous  sunshine 
over  all,  united  to  replace  the  feeling  of  sameness,  which  the  absence  of  hiUs 
axkd  extensive  woods  is  so  apt  to  oreate»  by  one  of  intense  delight.  A  fow 
weeks  later,  and  the  lake  must  be  even  more  beautifuL  It  abounds  in  the 
lotus ;  and  this  splendid  flower  is  said  to  cover  ite  sui&oe.  Unluckily  for 
such  as  fear  mosquitoes,  these  troublesome  insecte  are  also  there  in  full  forces 
and,  as  they  are  here  of  enormous  size,  and  more  than  commonly  venomous^ 
one  would  need  be  more  than  ordinarily  enthusiastic  to  brave  their  friendshigp. 
*'  There  were  several  things  upon  this  lake  of  which  one  has  often  heard. 
In  one  place  was  a  large  flock  of  *  house  ducks.'  The  boat  in  which  their 
owner  lived  and  in  which  they  slept  lay  anchored  near;  and  the  birds  are 
constantly  watched. 

«  Fishing  cormorante  were  also  a  nevel  sight;  for,  though  common  in  many 
parte  of  China,  I  have  not  before  met  with  them  in  the  north.  We  passed  a 
boat  with  at  least  a  dozen,  but  the  birds  and  their  master  were  seeming  all 
at  rest. 

*•  Fishing  is,  of  course,  one  of  the  great  trades  upon  /the  lake.  It  mnsA 
swarm  with  fish.  Many  a  time  we  were  reminded  of  Simon  Peter  and  Andrew, 
James  and  John,  old  Zebedee,  and  the  rest.  How  beautifully  simple  are  the 
Scripture  narratives  I  And  how  such  scenes  as  these  make  them  live  before 
us !  The  first  disciples  must  have  been  much  such  men  as  these.  Watch  them* 
More  than  one  is  literally  '  naked,'  and,  one  cannot  but  feel,  convetUenUy  aa, 
especially  in  such  weather.  I  quite  envied  them  their  alligator  lifo.  And 
then  watch  l^em  draw  the  net  up  into  their  boat — clambering  up  the  aides 
like  so  many  lads,  and,  with  a  curious  look  of  interest,  bending  over  the  net 
as  one  shaken  and  examines  it  for  their  glittering  prize.  For  a  time  it  odnme 
their  haul  has  been  in  vain;  but^no!  yonderne  some  bright  scales  gleaauD^

in  the  sanfthine ;  and  one  is  glad  the  poor  fellows  httve  not  wrought  to  no 
pcupose.  '  Master,  we  have  toiled  all  night  and  taken  nothing.'  '  Thej  were 
ishers/  How  much  of  Tirid  reality  do  such  touches  as  these  give  to  the 
Gospels! 

^  The  natives  have  all  sorts  of  ingenious  devices  fbr  catching  fish.  Another 
common  one  here  is  a  trap,  formed  ci  rdeds>  plaited  neatly  into  little  walls, 
just  appearing  above  the  water,  with  narrow  openings  here  and  tiiere,  from 
which,  when  the  fish  has  strayed  in,  there  is  small  ohance  of  escape. 

"  Before  noon  we  had  crossed  the  lake,  and  were  again  in  the  river  at  its 
farther  end.  But  the  country  was  still  HttLe  better  than  a  lake.  Every  now 
and  then  the  stream  widened  into  reedy  ponds,  and  we  could  see  that  the 
whole  plain  was  netted  with  streams,  and  that  a  slight  rain-fiall  would  place 
the  whole  under  water.  It  is  just  the  sort  of  country  for  rice-culture,  and 
we  are  told  that,  in  point  of  &ct,  the  best  rice  grown  in  the  north  is  actuaHy 
produced  here  in  great  quantity.  We  saw  many  little  plats,  surrounded  by 
earthen  mounds,  some  two  feet  high,  and  so  separated  from  the  wilds,  care- 
ftilly  fiUed  with  water,  upon  which  would  soon  be  sown  the  bread  of  Ohina. 

A  COtJNTBT  MABKET. 

*' As  we  neared  T'aiteii  (ninety  leagues  fr^m  Tien-tsin)  the  stream  divided 
into  three.  We  followed  one  which  brought  us  alongside  the  yOlage,  and 
immediately  went  ashore.  T'aited  cannot  have  more  than  2000  or  3000 
inhabitants,  and  so  is  truly  a  village.  However,  it  was  market-di^,  and  there 
-was  a  good  muster  from  the  neighbourhood  round.  The  street  reminded  one 
Mi  good  deal  of  small  market  towns  at  home.  It  was  narrow,  and,  as  is  usual 
-with  more  regular  shopkeepers,  the  good  folks  at  the  stalls  had  spread  awnings 
from  one  side  to  the  other,  as  shelter  from  the  sun.  They  had  not  much 
Tariety.  Of  course  there  were  eatables  in  plenty,  and  the  sdlers  of  live-stock 
and  garden  stuff  clustered  together.  In  another  street  there  was  a  more 
miscellaneous  gathering ;  but  the  clotih*aeUers  carried  the  palm.  There  were 
iew  stalls,  nearly  everything  being  spread  upon  the  ground.  The  cloth  sold 
is  principally  native  calico,  blue  and  white,  of  various  qualities.  A  good  deal 
of  foreign  also  gets  into  the  market;  but  it  is  too  dear  just  now  to  compete 
ivith  what  is  woven  here.  I  saw,  too^  some  prints  which  were,  likely  enough, 
Manchester  manufacture. 

^  I  was  amused  with  the  display  at  what  we  should  call  a  marine-store 
ke^^er's.  I  often  wonder  whether  these  fellows  have  any  moral  kinship  with 
titeir  brethren  in  England*  Here,  i^read  upon  the  ground,  were  odds  and 
ends  of  all  sorts :  a  foreign  horse-shoe,  a  pair  of  native  stirrups,  some  old 
l»ooks,  a  Chinese  harp,  x>lenty  oirxmby  nails,  pieces  of  patched  crockery,  two 
or  three  native  mirrors,  and  a  native  painting  on  glass  of  an  English  lady 
simpering  at  a  butterfly.  I  dare  not  try  to  describe  this  last;  but,  caricature 
iboiigh  it  was,  I  have  seen  far  worse  pictures  hanging  on  cottage  walls  at 
borne.  A  couple  of  jewellears  had  little  tables.  Their  almost  sole  trade  is  the 
sale  of  the  silver  omamesxts  for  the  hair  worn  by  women.  Their  tables  had  each

began  our  work,  our  friend  plantixig  Himself  by  my  knees  and  keeping  order. 
We  greatlj  ei^joyed  tbe  simple  kindliness  of  the  people,  and  thej  were  many 
of  them  plainly  much  interested.  Hall  told  me  after  that  more  than  one 
qxiite  understood  the  great  tmths  proclaimed.  They  have  a  habit  of  saying 
'  BaxX  hwa,  hail  hwa '  (good  words),  when  anything  is  said  which  {deases 
them ;  and  this  was  uttered  to-day  at  times  and  in  a  way  which  showed  thai  it 
was  not  mere  politeness.  A  crowd  followed  us  to  the  boat.  No  missionary, 
they  said,  had  ever  visited  them  before,  nor  had  any  books  reached  the 
village. 

ABBIVAL  AT  SHENa-PANG.— VBHEMBKT  CONTBKTION  FOB  BOOKS. 

*'  Six  miles  fstrther  on  we  came  to  the  central  and  largest  place  in  this  fenny 
region.  This  is  Sheng-fang,  where  also  the  people  spoke  of  its  being  the  first 
time  that  they  had  heard  the  '  strange  foreign  doctrine.'  It  is  a  considerable 
town.  Being  surrounded  on  three  sides  by  the  stream,  it  has  a  water-front 
about  two  miles  in  length.  The  population  is  probably  over  40,000.  There 
are  some  very  good  houses,  there  being  many  respectable  residents,  retired 
tradesmen  and  others.  A  large  temple  stands  near,  at  which  a  great  festival 
is  held  in  the  fifth  month,  when  the  population  for  miles  round  crowd  into  the 
town. 

"  Our  boat  was  hardly  anchored  before  a  scene  began  which  was  new  in  onr 
experience.  It  was  not  without  difficulty  that  Chang  and  I  got  ashore.  We 
were  at  once  besieged  for  the  books  we  carried.  Making  our  way  across  the 
bridge,  I  pushed  into  a  temple  jrard,  but  the  crush  was  so  great  tibat  I  had  to 
ask  a  man  to  guide  us  to  some  larger  space.  He  found  us  a  capital  stand, 
and  made  himself  very  usefbl.  I  told  them  the  story  of  Jesus  raising  the 
widow's  son.  There  is  a  wonderM  power  in  these  '  Bible  stories.'  Latter^ 
I  have  been  much  struck  with  this.  One  may  preach  away  most  earnest^ 
and  plainly,  illustrating  as  best  we  can,  and  all  in  vain ;  but  the  moment  some 
incident  from  the  Gk>spels  is  told,  and  the  lessons  taught  by  it  naturally 
drawn,  every  eye  is  fixed ;  and  one  is  led  to  ask  whether  the  Divine  Spirit  does 
not  specially  honour  the  Gospels  for  the  salvation  of  men. 

"  It  was  so  at  T'aitexli,  where  the  tale  of  the  leper  had  induced  many  to 
listen  patiently  while  told  of  their  own  disease  and  its  cure;  and  I  now  found 
it  so  again  at  Sheng-fang.  A  minute  before  Chang-sein-seng  had  tried  in 
vain  to  get  a  hearing :  a  few  listened,  the  mass  were  talking  noisily,  while 
some  walked  off.  But  the  poor  faces  brightened  when  told  of  Ohrist's  mer^ 
to  her.  For  nearly  half-an-hour  I  had  as  quiet  an  audience  as  man  ooold 
wish. 

"  Preaching  over,  we  asked  for  the  reading  men,  in  order  to  give  our  books. 
For  a  moment  all  went  well ;  but  soon  the  eagerness  of  the  people  broke  all 
bounds,  and  I  found  it  needful  to  announce  that  we  would  give  no  more :  thery 
must  buy.  At  once  fifty  hands  were  outstretched;  and,  for  fear  lest  others 
should  forestall  them,  there  was  a  rush  forward  on  the  part  of  each  to  snatch 
them  from  us.  Again  and  again  we  implored  them  to  be  patient.  More 
than  once,  by  main  force,  I  pushed  back  those  who  crowded  up  the  temple 
steps.  All  to  no  purpose.  There  was  nothing  for  us  but  to  beat  a  retreat. 
We  made  for  our  boat;  but  not  to  rest.    The  people,  young  and  olcL  fidlow«d

us;  and  for  upwards  of  three  hoars  there  was  a  scene  of  the  most  exciting 
interest.  Oyer  a  thousand  must  have  visited  us.  Kept  constantly  supplied 
with  books  bj  Mr.  Hall,  who  most  of  the  time  remained  inside  out  of  the 
turmoil,  and  with  the  boatmen  and  others  trying  to  keep  order,  it  was  still 
more  than  I  could  do  to  supply  the  demand.  Many  a  time,  in  sheer  self- 
defence,  I  had  to  clear  the  boat;  for  they  swarmed  upon  it  like  bees,  and  some 
poor  lads  got  ducked  repeatedly,  but,  nothing  daunted,  their  cash  was  the  next 
minute  once  more  presented,  and  they  got  one  book  only  to  return  the  succeeding 
minute  for  another.  The  men  on  shore,  except  when  they  wished  a  forty-cash 
Testament,  trusted  all  to  these  nimble  messengers.  8oon  the  bank  presented 
an  extraordinary  appearance.  It  was  a  gradual  slope  of  considerable  height, 
and  crowded  from  top  to  bottom  with  natives.  I  was  too  busy  to  notice  much, 
but  Hall  speaks  of  it  as  the  most  wonderful  thing  he  has  seen  in  China. 
Many  were  supplied  with  books ;  and  these  were  being  opened  and  read  with 
eager  curiosity.  Numbers  more  were,  with  outstretched  hands,  demanding 
the  coveted  treasure.  The  perspiration  ran  down  my  face.  I  begged  for 
rest.  They  crowded  round  the  open  window.  I  expostulated,  got  angry. 
'No ;  books  they  wanted,  and  books  they  would  have.  We  resolved  to  drop 
down  the  river.  As  we  took  up  the  anchor  half-a-dozen  fell  into  the  water. 
No  matter,  they  followed  us  down  the  bank.  We  crossed,  and  shut  up  shop 
for  awhile,  leaving  Chang  to  preach  while  we  had  a  quiet  stroll.  They  pressed 
us  with  questions  and  entreaties  for  books.  We  soon  found  there  was  no  rest 
for  us  at  Sheng-fang.  It  was  dose  on  seven  o'clock,  and  I  was  worn  out.  I 
began  to  fear,  too,  that  the  excitement  would  be  too  much  for  Brother  Hall. 
So  we  resolved  to  go.  Before  leaving,  however,  I  mounted  a  high  grave-mound, 
and  preached  again.  There  must  have  been  500  present.  They  were  as  attentive 
as  before.  We  now  said  *  Gk)od-bye.*  When  a  mile  from  the  town,  scores  still 
lined  the  bank,  crying,  '  Don't  go,  don't  go !  let  me  have  one  book.  See,  here  is 
money :  onlji  one !'  We  thought  to  supply  just  these,  and  pass  on.  No  sooner 
had  we  pulled  to  one  bank  than  those  on  the  opposite  one  pulled  off  their 
clothes,  and,  holding  them  upon  their  heads  with  one  hand,  while  the  other 
contained  their  money,  plunged  into  the  water  towards  us.  As  soon  it  was 
known  we  had  stopped,  the  stream  again  began  to  pour  from  the  town.  We 
once  more  pulled  up  anchor;  but  some  poor  fellows  followed  the  boat  for  two 
nules,  until  their  pleadings  proved  successful.  Being  told  that  the  stream  we 
were  upon  became,  a  little  farther  on,  too  shallow  for  boats,  there  was  no  plan 
but  to  return  on  our  course  to  T'aiteC^  and  take  another."

MADAGASCAE. 

Although  the  Queen  and  the  Ch)Tenmi6nt  continue  practically  to  tolerate  the 
civil  and  religious  privileges  of  the  natiye  Christians,  yet  it  is  too  obvious 
that  both  the  Sovereign  and  the  officers  who  surround  her  are  strongly 
attached  to  the  superstitions  of  the  country,  and  that  the  tendency  of  various

itSi  MMtONAXT  KaoAZIKB 

neasQies  they  adopt  is  nfifEiroiirable  to  Ohristiaiiitjr.  The  religiooB  freedom 
of  the  Christians  is  not  only  declared  in  one  of  the  artielee  to  which  the 
Queen  and  Government  are  pledged,  but  in  the  proposed  treaty  with  Chrest 
Britain  it  is  guaranteed  both  with  respect  to  the  English  missionaries  and  the 
Kative  Churches ;  and  upon  the  latter  especially  our  hope,  under  God,  far 
the  maiatenance  of  this  freedom  must  mainly  depend. 

In  this  state  of  things  forbearance  and  discretion  on  the  part  of  the 
missionaries  are  doubly  important;  and  the  Directors  have  been  deeply 
grieved  during  the  last  month  to  learn  that  certain  military  regulations  fbr 
the  preservation  of  the  capital  during  the  Queen's  absenoe  were  forciUj 
zefiisted  by  two  or  three  members  of  the  Mission.  Theee  r^ulations,  among 
others,  consisted  of  temporary  barriers  at  the  principal  entranoea  to  tiie  city, 
where  armed  guards  were  stationed,  with  orders  to  require  from  every  person 
passing  in  or  out  of  the  city  either  his  name  or  some  other  mark  by  which  he 
might  be  recognised.  Through  these  barriers  and  the  sentries  stationed  there 
the  individuals  referred  to  forced  their  passage.  Happily  these  acts  of  serious 
indiscretion  produced  no  immediate  indications  of  displeasure  frx)m  the  Grovem- 
ment  on  the  offenders,  but  the  guards  were  punished  who  had  allowed  the 
violation  of  the  Queen's  orders.  They  led,  however,  to  a  remonstrance  from 
the  British  Consul,  and  to  a  conference  with  him  by  no  means  amicable.  The 
substance  of  this  conference  has  been  transmitted  to  the  Foreign  OiEce,  and 
forwarded  by  Earl  Russell  to  the  Directors.  The  oommunications  of  our 
MeAd  Mr.  Ellis  as  to  the  facts  of  the  case  concur  in  Wbstanoe  with  those  of 
the  Consul. 

The  Directors  have  given  to  the  painful  case  their  most  serious  considera- 
tion, and  by  the  mail  of  the  26th  June  they  transmitted  to  Madagascar  the 
following  resolution,  expressive  of  their  sentiments  and  feelings  on  the 
subject : — 

"  That  a  communication  be  transmitted  to  the  missionaiies  of  the  Sociefy 
in  Madagascar,  expressing  the  deep  regret  and  decided  disapprobation  of  tibe 
Directors  that  any  of  their  agents  should  have  been  chargeable  with  acts  of 
resistance  and  violence  against  the  native  authorities  of  Madagascar;  the 
Directors  regarding  it  as  a  duty  incumbent  on  their  misaionarieB,  in  common 
with  all  other  foreigners,  to  conform  to  the  civil  and  social  requirements  of 
the  Government  of  the  country  in  which  they  reside.  The  Directors  hereby 
most  urgently  entreat  and  explicitly  ei^oin  on  their  missionaries  in  Mada- 
gascar to  render  to  such  regulations  of  the  Queen  and  native  Government 
xmiform  compliance.  And  further  that,  in  the  intercourse  of  the  missionaries 
with  the  British  Consul,  as  the  representative  of  our  Queen  and  Grovemment, 
the  Directors  most  earnestly  desire  that  they  should  invariably  cultivate  sen* 
timents  of  respect  and  the  spirit  of  conciliation." 

The  preceding  resolution  was  adopted  on  the  infimnation  contained  in  the 
letters  of  l^e  missionaries,  and  before  the  documents  from  iAke  Eoreign  Office 
had  been  received;  but  the  Directors  have  since  Mt  it  imperative  to  adopt

farther  resolutions  on  tlie  Ciuse>  which  they  trust  it  may  not  be  necessary  to 
carry  into  effect,  as  they  cherish  a  strong  hope  that  the  offending  parties  haye 
aiready,  upon  mature  reflection,  made  ample  reparation  for  the  precipitancy 
and  indiscretion  of  their  conduct,  -which  was  doubtiess  calculated  greatiy  to 
offend  the  GK)Temment,  and  to  imperil  the  privileges  of  the  natiye  Christians. 
While  the  Directors  deeply  regret  the  necessity  of  giving  the  preceding 
statement,  they  are  thankM  to  add  that  the  intelligence  received  fiom  our 
venerable  friend  Mr.  Ellis,  as  to  the  internal  state  of  the  Mission,  continuet 
to  be  equally  cheering  with  his  former  letters.  The  following  very  interesting 
particulars  are  selected  from,  his  latest  communications  :— 

"  Amidst  many  difficulties  we  have  much  to  encourage  us.  Under  the  mercy 
of  its  Divine  Author,  the  Gospel  is  still  spreading,  and  evidence  of  its 
influence  over  the  minds  and  hearts  of  men  placed  in  circumstances  pecu- 
liarly unfavourable  to  such  influence  is  continually  coming  to  our  knowledge. 
Two  days  ago  I  received  a  visit  from  some  of  our  own  people  here,  who  were 
accompanied  by  a  Christian  from  one  of  the  frontier  villages  on  the  south- 
west of  Imerina;  seventy  miles  distant;  and  between  whose  village  and  the 
eastern  villages  of  the  Sakalavas  there  are  only  militaiy  pickets.  In  that 
village,  midst  the  mass  of  heathens,  there  are  thirteen  Christiaaia,  who  pray 
to  Qod,  observe  the  Sabbath,  and  are  learning  to  read  and  to  sing;  and  the 
object  of  the  visitor  in  coming  to  me  was  to  ask  for  a  Malagasy  Bible,  and 
school-books  and  hymns*  I  was  glad  to  supply  hia  want,  and  hope  to  learn 
a  little  more  of  the  history  of  the  introduction  of  the  Gk>spel  to  that  remote 
region  before  he  returns. 

**  Yesterday,  April  27,  after  morning  service  at  Ambatonakanga,  one  of  our 
people,  who  had  been  absent  a  long  time,  came  to  me  before  I  left  the  chapel, 
aad  presented  a  letter  from  tiie  germ  of  a  Christian  congregation  about 
equally  distant  in  an  opposite  direction ;  namely,  north-east  frx>m  the  capital, 
and  in  the  Antsianaka  l^ovince,  where  there  is,  in  a  heathen  village,  a  little 
eoogregation  of  only  five  persons,  who  Tnaint^iin  public  Ohriatiaa  worship, 
and  are  teaching  others.  Thia  distant  gathering  originated  in  two  ChristianSi 
a  man  and  a  woman,  who  fled  from  Imerina  during  the  season  of  persecutioa^ 
ioQjkd  aa  asylum  there,  and  became  aposties  to  the  people.  The  writer  of  tiie 
letter  was  an  officer;  but  the  preacher  and  chief  supporter  of  the  Gospel 
there  is  a  woman  whose  husband,  though  he  does  not  oppose,  does  not  receive 
the  Gospel 

'*  It  is  also  a  source  of  great  satisfisction  to  us,  and  encomttgement  in  oar 
work,  to  sustain  cordial  and  friendly  relations  with  our  brethren  the  mission- 
ariea  of  theChurdi  Societies  who  are  also  labouring  in  Madagascar  to  promote 
the  same  great  work.  I  hope  we  shall  be  able  to  unite,  not  only  in  heart,  but 
m  using  the  same  educational  works  in  our  respective  schools,  as  weU  as  in 
Ipreaohing  the  same  Saviour  to  tiie  different  races  of  the  Malagasy  by  which 
we  are  rcspeotively  surrounded.'*

LONDOI^  MISSIONARY  SOCIETY'S  INSTITUTE,  HIGHGATE. 

A  VEBT  interesting  meeting  was  held  on  Friday,  the  30th  June,  under  the 
roof  of  the  Institute  itself,  in  connection  with  the  close  of  its  second  year's 
existence  and  labours.  The  chair  was  occupied  by  the  Rev.  Dr.  Ferguson, 
who  opened  the  proceedings  of  the  afternoon  by  a  short  devotional 
service.  The  Rev.  J.  S.  Wardlaw,  the  president  of  the  Institution,  read  a 
thoroughly-prepared  report  of  what  had  been  done  during  the  past  year, 
including  the  study  and  exegetical  exposition  of  several  portions  of  the  Greek 
Testament  and  Hebrew  Scriptures ;  lectures  on  the  Apostolic  and  primitive 
Church,  the  place  which  miracles  occupy  in  the  New  Testament  economy,  the 
gift  of  tongues,  second  advent,  and  other  cognate  subjects ;  lectures  on  Christian 
Missions,  the  history,  mythology,  and  moral  condition  of  the  nations  to  which 
the  students  under  his  care  have  been  appointed  as  the  scene  of  their  labours ; 
with  instruction  in  the  rudiments  of  those  lang^uages  in  which  they  will  be 
called  to  deliver  the  message  of  salvation  to  the  Heathen. 

The  reports  of  the  different  examiners,  which  Mr.  Wardlaw  incorporated 
in  his  interesting  record,  were  truly  discriminating  and  impartial,  yet  highly 
satisfactory. 

The  adoption  of  the  report  was  moved  by  the  Rev.  J.  Viney,  of  Highgate, 
seconded  by  H.  W.  Dobell,  Esq.,  the  ex-Chairman  of  the  Board,  and  was 
supported  by  the  Rev.  Dr.  Tidman,  Professor  Gk>dwin,  of  N^w^p^fge,  and 
Mr.  Judge  Payne,  all  of  whom  spoke  with  great  effect. 


686  VlflSlOirAET  MAaAZtNE 

Tke  B^.  John  Coi%m,  of  fionusej,  then  addrassed  the  stadents  m  a  strain 
of  sound  practical  wisdom,  which  ^Uiej  will  do  w^  to  embodj  m  tbeir  fotoR  ' 
life  and  character  among  the  H^then.    A  Yote  of  thanks  was  moTcd  and 
seconded  among  the  students  themselyes  to  Hr.  Oorbin  for  his  appropriate 
address. 

At  the  close  of  Mr.  Gorbin's  address,  the  Bey.  !Dr.  Tidman,  in  the  name  and 
on  behalf  of  the  students,  presented  to  Mr.  and  Mrs.  Wardlaw  an  degantlj- 
bound  copy  of  Sir  Walter  Scott's  Poetical  Works^  as  a  memento  of  thdr 
gratitude  and  affection.  The  presentation  was  preceded  by  a  few  loring  and 
generous  sentiments,  to  which  Mr.  Wardlaw  responded  in  words  of  tenderness 
and  satisfaction. 

After  singing  a  hymn,  the  Chairman  offered  prayer  and  prononneed  tiie 
benediction. 

Notwithstanding  the  unpropitious  state  of  the  weather,  there  was  a  reiy 
fair  attendance  of  both  ladies  and  gentlemen,  who,  at  the  close  of  the  proceed-  i 
ings,  were  served  with  tea  and  coffee,  and  retired  delighted  and  gratified  with 
the  enjoyments  of  the  afternoon. 

It  is  the  hope  of  not  a  few  of  the  most  devoted  and  liberal  friends  of  the 
Society  that  this  Institute  may  prove  the  germ  of  a  future  Mission  Gollege,nnd<r 
whose  roof  all  the  students  may  live  together  as  one  holy  brotherliood,  and  is 
which  every  branch  of  their  education,  with  the  exception  of  medical  science, 
will  be  b^un,  carried  on,  and  completed.  The  history  of  the  Institute  during 
the  past  two  years  justifies  the  hope ;  and  we  trust  the  day  is  not  far  off  when 
it  will  be  realized. 

RETTJBN  OF  EEY.  DE.  MULLENS  TO  ENGLAND. 
The  members  of  the  Society  generally  are  aware  that  the  Directors,  having 
respect  to  its  fiiture  interests,  have  invited  the  Eev.  Dr.  Mullens  to  r^um 
to  England,  with  a  view  to  his  being  associated  with  Dr.  Tidmait  in  the 
duties  of  the  Secretariat  for  the  foreign  department.  Dr.  M.  has  accepted  the 
invitation;  and,  having  been  requested  also  by  the  Directors  to  visit  the 
Society's  staticms  in  China  and  throughout  Southern  India  befoie  bis  xetein, 
he  has  already  left  Calcutta  in  the  execution  of  these  instmetionB.  The 
Society's  Mission  in  that  city  and  neighbourhood,  and,  indeed,  tlie  oaose  of 
Missions  throughout  India,  will  suffer  a  great  loss  in  the  removal  of  our 
friend  and  brother;  but  we  anticipate  a  corresponding,  if  not  a  greater 
advantage  from  his  presence  and  exertions  at  home. 

The  "Friend  of  India,"  anticipating  the  departure  of  Dr.  M.,  bears  the  fol- 
lowing just  and  honourable  testimony  to  his  character  and  labours : — 

"  Thus  wiU  end  a  life  of  twenty-one  years  in  India,  during  which  Dr.  Mutteps 
has  seen  a  large  part  of  its  provinces,  made  personal  acquaintance  with  more 
than  five  hundred  missionaries,  and  written  many  pamphlets  and  books. 
Dr.  M.  will  be  much  missed  in  the  Calcutta  University  and  Miasionaiy  Con- 
ference, and  in  many  a  sphere  of  public  usefulneas  in  Bengal  Few  man  hart 
spent  so  active  and  usefrd  a  life  as  he^  and  his  large  and  oatholio  expeaocBC^ 
will  be  of  great  use  in  England."  Digitized  by  LjOOQLC

MADAGASCAE. 

OrB  latest  intelligence  from  Madagascar  is  of  the  Slst  ITay ;  and  we  are 
happy  to  learn  that  the  state  of  the  capital  and  of  the  country  generally  up 
to  that  period  was  tranquil,  and  no  intimation  of  displeasure  had  been  given 
by  the  native  Government  in  consequence  of  the  unfortunate  events  that  had 
occurred  early  in  March.  Indeed  it  is  highly  probable  that  the  Government 
having  made  their  communications  to  the  British  Consul,  and  having 
received  from  him  satisfactory  replies,  it  was  not  deemed  necessary  or  advis- 
able to  take  any  further  steps  in  the  matter.  We  arc  truly  thankful  for 
such  a  result  to  the  untoward  proceedings  in  which  two  members  of  the 
Mission  inconsiderately  involved  themselves ;  and  we  feel  assured  that,  upon 
a  review  of  the  case,  these  brethren  would  sincerely  regret  their  own  pre- 
cipitancy. 

From  letters  we  have  since  received,  we  rejoice  to  learn  that  the  internal 
state  of  the  Mission,  both  in  the  capital  and  the  surrounding  country,  is  very 
encouraging.  This  statement  will  be  confirmed  by  the  following  extract 
of  letters  from  the  Eev.  Joseph  Peajrse  and  the  Kev.  Robert  Toy  : — 

EXTRACT  OP  letter  PBOM  THE  BBV.  JOSEPH  PBAB8B,  DATED 
ANTANANARIVO,  MAT  22nD,  1865. 

"  With  regard  to  our  work  in  this  country,  it  is  a  matter  for  joy  and  thank- 
iolness  that  up  to  the  present  time  we  have  been  permitted  to  carry  it  on 
without  interruption,  and,  I  may  add,  with  evident  tokens  of  the  Great 
Master's  blessing.  We  have  had  our  anxieties  in  the  past,  and  are  not 
without  them  in  regard  to  the  future.  We  endeavour,  however,  to  commit 
that  to  Him,  to  whom  it  is  fully  known. 

"  At  Analakelt  we  are  working  on  in  our  humble  way.  It  is  with  great 
pleasure  that  I  inform  you  that  onr  new  chapel  is  fairly  commenced ;  and  as  I 
look  from  my  window  now  I  can  see  some  fifty  of  the  people  busily  working 
at  it.    The  people  have  shown  great  wiUingneas  to  do  all  thej  can  towards

the  ereotion  of  it.  Thej  have  decided  that  the  building  shall  be  of  brick,  and 
have  undertaken  among  themselves  to  supply  and  build  the  same.  When 
finished,  we  hope  it  will  bear  comparison  with  any  of  the  Native  Churches  y^ 
completed. 

"  Since  my  last  the  number  of  our  Church  members  has  gradually  increased ; 
and  we  now  number  265  at  Analakely.  Yesterday,  afber  the  usual  morning 
service,  I  baptized  twenty-two  adults  and  four  infiants.  One  of  the  adults  was 
an  officer  of  fourteen  honours. 

"  As  in  England,  qo  also  in  Madagascar,  death  from  time  to  time  removes 
our  members  from  the  Church  below  to  the  Church  above.  It  is  delightful 
to  witness  the  effects  of  the  Gk>spel  among  them,  producing,  as  we  see 
it  does,  resignation  under  affliction,  and  entirely  removing  the  fear  of 
death,  by  giving  them  a  glorious  hope  of  the  better  life  beyond.  Last 
Tuesday  I  was  at  the  funeral  of  Bandnamahaly.  Poor  fellow,  he  suffered 
greatly  from  pulmonary  affection,  and  ere  he  died  was  greatly  reduced. 
During  his  long  illness  I  visited  him  several  times,  but  I  never  heard  a 
murmur  escape  him.  On  the  Saturday  before  his  death  I  was  with  hLm,  but 
he  was  too  ill  to  speak.  I  spoke  to  him,  and  by  motions  of  his  head  he 
expressed  his  continued  trust  in  Christ,  and  how  that,  throu^  Him  alone,  he 
had  no  fear  of  death,  but  enjoyed  a  '  lively  hope.'  Last  Tuesday  he  had  a 
Christian  burial.  We  sang  a  hymn,  and  I  read  a  suitable  portion  of  Scripture, 
and  prayed,  afber  which  we  committed  his  body  to  the  grave,  in  sure  and 
certain  hope  of  a  joyful  resurrection. 

•*  In  the  few  villages  to  which  I  endeavour  to  devote  some  little  time  and 
attention,  I  hope  we  are  gaining  ground,  and  that  those  who  have  ahieady 
believed  are  increasing  in  knowledge  as  well  as  in  faith,  love,  and  zeaL  In 
two  of  the  villages  the  Native  Christians  are  busy  just  now  building  new 
chapels,  better  and  more  commodious  than  those  they  now  occupy. 

"  For  all  tokens  of  the  Divine  blessing  we  desire  to  be  gratefuL  Our 
labours  are  fall  of  imperfection,  and  the  utmost  efforts  .we  can  put  forth  are 
as  nothing  compared  with  what  the  extent  and  condition  of  the  popnlatJom 
require.  Hold  up  our  feeble  hands,  and  seek  for  us  increased  love  and 
devotedness,  by  your  continued  and  earnest  prayers." 

EXTBACT  OF  LETTER  FBOM  BBV.  BOBEBT  TOY,  DATED  ANTANAKABIYO, 

MAY  dlST,  1865. 

''  Everything  seems  going  on  as  usual  among  the  different  congregations. 
Those  who  have  long  been  hearers  of  the  Word  are  gradually  and  regolazly 
coming  forward  as  candidates  for  baptism  and  Church  membership. 

**  You  can  form  a  very  faint  idea  in  England  of  the  poverty  and  wretched- 
ness'of  nearly  the  whole  population  of  the  small  villages,  scattered  among  Uie 
rice  grounds,  a  few  miles  from  the  capital.  There  are  exceptions — as,  £ar 
example,  such  towns  as  Ilafy,  Ambohimanga,  and  others,  which  ought  to  do 
nearly  as  much  for  themselves  as  the  town  Churches.  But  I  urge  assistanoe 
especially  for  those  who  absolutely  can  do  nothing  for  themselves.  I  feel  TCiy 
anxious  that  something  should  be  d(me  in  such  cases,  and  I  expect  my  owa 
Church  will  have  a  small  surplus  at  their  disposal  by  the  end  of  the  ye«r  to 
devote  to  this  purpose.    A  case  of  this  kind  was  brought  before  my  notice  a 


FOR  SEPTEMBER,    1865.  247 

day  or  two  ago.  A  poor  old  man,  with  a  withered  leg,  has  hobbled  his  way 
along  to  the  capital  from  a  village  about  thirty  miles  distant.  In  the  neigh- 
bonring  villages  there  are  two  other  younger  men,  with  their  wives,  who  ai*e 
Christians.  I  visited  them  myself  some  three  months  ago  for  the  purpose  of 
originating  a  Church  in  one  of  their  houses.  I  found  a  fair  population  scat- 
tered around,  but  as  poor  and  as  destitute  as  one  can  well  conceive.  Since 
then  they  have  held  Divine  service  occasionally  in  the  same  place ;  but 
none  of  them  can  preach,  and,  consequently,  the  few  that  came  at  first  have 
forsaken  them.  The  poor  old  man  was  with  me  the  day  before  yesterday, 
^gg^g  bard  for  help ;  but  we  can  do  little  for  him  on  account  of  the  distance. 
I  have,  however,  promised  to  send  a  preacher  occasionally  until  Christmas, 
and  then,  if  I  can  get  sufficient  to  support  a  preacher  there  altogether,  I 
intend  doing  so.  The  expense  would  be  about  two  dollars  or  two  and  a 
half  per  month." 


It  is  very  satisfactory  to  find,  from  a  Report  of  Mr.  Consul  Pakenham,  dated 
the  beginning  of  the  present  year,  which  we  copy  from  the  "  South  African 
Advertiser  and  Mail,"  that  his  estimate  of  the  state  and  position  of  the 
Native  Christians  in  the  capital  agrees  generally  with  that  of  our  missionaries. 
Mr.  Pakenham,  however,  in  the  same  paper  truly  states  the  unfavourable 
tendency  of  the  measures  adopted  by  the  Queen  and  her  advisers,  and  that 
the  hope  of  liberty  and  peace  hereafter  mainly  depends  on  the  conclusion  of 
the  Treaties  between  the  Government  of  Madagascar  and  those  of  Great 
Britain  and  France. 

"  Although  nearly  the  entire  produce  of  the  province  finds  its  way  to  the 
capital,  Antananarivo  cannot  be  considered  a  commercial  or  industrial  city. 
Oxen  and  a  few  sheep  form  the  principal  exports,  whilst  the  chief  foreign 
commodities  introduced  are  cotton  fabrics,  wines,  spirits,  and  groceries, 
which  are  received  from  Tamatave,  the  port  through  which  Antananarivo 
deals  with  the  exterior.  The  greater  portion  of  the  cotton  goods  arriving  are 
of  British  manufacture ;  and  the  quantity  is  in  a  great  measure  regulated  by 
the  nimiber  of  *  Imerina '  oxen  shipped  on  the  coast,  the  price  of  which  is 
^nerally  remitted  in  such  merchandise.  The  probable  annual  amount  of 
these  operations  is  £30,000  sterling. 

"The  district  around  the  capital,  comparatively  the  best  cultivated  in 
Madagascar,  produces  little  worthy  of  mention  save  rice,  and  this  in  quantities 
only  sufficient  for  local  requirements.  Maize,  manioc,  yams,  potatoes,  and 
beans  are  grown  on  a  limited  scale,  as  also  arrowroot  and  saffron ;  indigo, 
tobacco,  coffee,  and  cotton  are  likewise  obtained,  the  latter  in  veiy  small 
quantities. 

"  There  are  about  5000  natives  at  Antananarivo  who  profess  Christianity, 
of  whom  the  greater  portion  are  Protestants ;  and  should  the  present  Hova 
Government  continue  tolerant,  there  is  every  prospect  of  Christianity  spread- 
ing. Education  is  making  progress  amongst  all  classes.  Besides  a  large 
school,  opened  by  the  Queen  for  the  instruction  of  the  officers  of  her  house- 
hold, and  confided  to  a  native  teacher,  there  are  at  the  capital  seven  schools

belonging  to  the  English  Protestant,  and  three  to  the  French  Boman 
Catholic,  missionaries,  all  well  attended. 

"The  members  of  the  present  Hova  Gro^emment, who,  with  one  or  two 
exceptions,  belong  to  the  old  heathen  ConservatiTe  party,  are  opposed  to  an 
extended  intercourse  with  Europeans,  and  to  the  spread  of  Christianity  in 
Madagascar.  If  left  to  the  bent  of  their  natural  inclinations,  thej  would 
gladly  revert  to  the  old  system  in  force  during  the  reign  of  Queen  Banayalona. 
The  fear  of  complications  with  the  British  and  French  GU>vemmenta  alone 
prevents  their  doing  so.  The  limited  views  of  the  minority  embrace  the 
present  only,  without  concern  for  the  future ;  and  to  secure  that  present,  as 
regards  their  own  position  and  influence,  is  their  aim  and  ambition.  The 
regenerating  effects  of  civilization,  and  the  progressive  moral  advancement 
attending  the  spread  of  Christianity,  are  consequently  not  only  feared,  but 
sought  to  be  resisted  by  means  of  a  restrictive  policy.  Under  existing  cir- 
cumstances, therefore,  we  can  scarcely  look  for  the  development  of  the 
resources  of  Madagascar,  for  administrative  reforms,  improvement  in  the 
social  condition  of  her  inhabitants,  or  increase  in  trade.  Such  advantages 
could  only  be  obtained  under  a  Liberal  Gk>vemment  in  favour  of  progress." 


CHINA. 

PEKING. 

"We  have  pleasure  in  inserting  the  following  cheering  intelligence  from  the 
capital.  The  number  of  missionaries  in  Peking  has  increased,  and  the 
operations  of  those  of  our  own  Society  in  particular  have  been  much  extended. 
The  labours  of  the  Eev.  Joseph  Edkiks  and  Dr.  Dudgeon,  with  their  excel- 
lent wives,  have  been,  through  the  Divine  blessing,  followed  by  the  happiest 
results ;  and  we  are  particularly  gratified  and  encouraged  by  the  successfdl 
efforts  of  our  Mends  among  the  Chinese  women. 

EXTRACT  OF  LETTES  FBOM  REV.  JOSEPH   EDEINS,  DATED  PEKING,   MARCH 

31ST,  1865. 

"  An  encouraging  circumstance  recently  took  place  here.  A  countryman, 
living  at  a  town  (Tang-feng-tsun)  150  miles  distant,  came  among  our  people 
lately,  and  stated  that  more  than  a  hundred  persons  residing  in  his  neigh- 
bourhood were  desirous  of  receiving  Christian  instruction.  They  had  read 
books  given  away  at  the  Church  Mission  here.  After  care^  examinatioai  of 
the  informant,  I  sent  with  him  to  his  home  one  of  our  schoolmast^^  who 
returned  a  few  days  since  with  the  information  that  he  had  met  with  ^ht 
respectable  persons  who  might  be  relied  on  as  sincerely  wishing  for  instruction. 
One  of  the  eight  accompanied  him,  and  is  here  now,  learning  the  Christian 
doctrines  and  examining  the  Scriptures.  His  associates  veiy  much  desire  a 
missionary  to  go  to  them,  and  the  matter  is  now  just  laid  before  the 
Bev.  W.  C.  Bums,  who  may  perhaps  consent  to  accompany  one  of  our 
preachers  to  the  town,  to  respond  to  this  apparently  providential  call  finom  a 
heathen  population.  Digitized  by  LjOOglC

"  I  will  also  add  that  Dr.  Pogajeff  went  down  this  week  to  Ts'aiii,  our  new 
country  station  twentj-five  miles  south  of  Peking,  to  spend  a  day  in  healing 
the  sick.  Dr.  P.  is  medical  officer  to  the  Russian  Embassy.  Mr.  Bums  was 
thei*e  at  the  time,  and  has  been  residing  at  the  chapel  for  a  mo];ith  past." 

EXTRACT  OF  LETTER  FROM  DR.   DUDOEOK,  DATED  PEKING,  MAY  24tH,  1865. 

"  The  Report  of  the  Hospital,  a  few  copies  of  which  I  send  per  Foreign 
Office  bag,  will  speak  for  itself.  It  was  printed  by  Chinese  at  the  R.  C.  establish- 
ment, and  its  publication  so  late  in  the  year  was  owing  to  their  ignorance  of 
the  English  language  and  to  the  paucity  of  certain  letters.  It  may  be  inter- 
esting as  a  specimen  of  the  first  English  printing  in  Peking. 

"  The  Hospital  still  continues  a  useful  adjunct  to  direct  missionary  work. 
Among  those  who  have  applied  for  relief  from  suffering,  not  a  few  have  found 
their  way  to  the  knowledge  of  Christianity ;  and  by  the  efficient  and  diligent 
work  of  Mr.  Edkins,  coupled  with  his  amiable  and  winning  manner,  the  little 
one  has  increased,  and  now  a  respectable  Peking  Church  exists  in  connection 
with  your  Mission,  consisting  of  upwards  of  forty  baptized  persons,  a  large 
number  of  inquirers  and  applicants  for  baptism,  with  two  flourishing  boys*^ 
schools. 

"  Immediately  after  the  festivities  of  the  Chinese  new  year,  when  all  attempts: 
to  rent  a  suitable  place  in  the  Chinese  city  had  failed,  I  opened  a  dispensary 
at  Mr.  Edkins's  Western  Station  about  four  miles  distant.  This  attempt  hauB- . 
been  most  successful.  I  attend  every  Saturday  afternoon ;  and  during  the 
first  month  eighty-four  separate  cases  were  seen,  of  which  sixteen  were  women^. 
In  March  the  numbers  reached  112,  of  which  fifty  were  women.  The  most 
hopeful  sign  of  any  station,  whether  medical  or  otherwise  in  China,  is  the 
large  attendance  of  women.  When  we  get  the  women,  we  necessarily  have 
the  children,  and  the  men  soon  follow — ^prejudice,  pride,  and  exclusiveness 
soon  disappear. 

"  In  the  autumn  I  purpose  to  open  another  dispensary  in  the  east,  in  a 
chapel  belonging  to  the  American  Presbyterian  Church. 

"  The  attendance  of  women  at  the  Western  Dispensary  became  so  great 
that  Mrs.  Edkins,  at  their  urgent  Teqa^st,  commenced  a  women's  class;  and 
the  room  is  every  Sabbath  afternoon  crowded  with  a  highly  respectable  and 
well-dressed  audience,  among  whom  are  many  old  women,  and  some  of  whom 
are  able  to  read — ^a  rarity  here. 

"  Wherever,  in  populous  localities,  we  choose  to  open  a  door  for  preaching 
or  dispensing  medicine,  especially  the  latter,  we  have  large  numbers  coming- 
to  hear  or  be  cured."

"  Wednesday,  April  27th. — ^The  morning  opened  heavily,  but  the  day  has 
been  full  of  interest,  for  we  have  again  heeo.  almost  overborne  by  the  eam^t- 
ness  of  the  people.  Towards  11  a.m.  we  reached  *  Chang  Ohie '  (Long  Street), 
*  Hsiai^-ma-tai!l,'  and  *  Su-chia-chiaii.'  The  two  first  are  villages  of  some  size ; 
the  third  is  an  unwaUed  town  on  the  opposite  bank,  larger  than  Sheng-fang, 
according  to  the  natives.  Bnt  we  had  no  time  for  personal  inspection.  Onr 
work  claimed  every  moment. 

"  *  Long  Street '  deserves  its  name.  It  is  nearly  three  miles  long,  bnt  is 
only  one  row.  While  resting  at  a  well,  a  second  crowd  collected,  and  I 
preached  again. 

"  When  the  boat  came  up  there  was  at  once  a  rush  for  books.  Some,  and 
especially  the  *  Three-Character  Classic,'  the  single  *  Gospels,'  and  one  or  two 
tracts,  were  in  snch  demand  that  we  advanced  the  price.  But  this  &iled  to 
check  the  demand ;  and  we  had  at  last  sternly  to  refiise  another  copy. 

"  A  quarter  of  a  mile  farther  we  anchored  again  opposite  Su-chia-chiai!^  the 
town  just  named.  The  people  were  already  waiting,  for  the  news  of  our 
coming  had  spread.  It  was  most  inspiriting.  Near  a  thousand  lined  the 
bank.  Keeping  the  boat  mid-stream,  first  Chang,  and  then  I  preached,  and 
had  splendid  order  for  at  least  half-an-hour.  Although  we  now  raised  the 
price  of  Testaments  to  fifty  large  cash,  and  other  books  in  proportion,  we  had 
again  to  leave  many  disappointed.  The  rest  of  the  day  passed  quietly.  The 
river  winds  through  a  fruitful  plain,  and  we  often  landed  to  enjoy  it.  The 
villages  were  few  and  very  small. 

A  GOD  MAKXTFACTOET. 

"  Friday,  April  29<A. — Leaving  Hsin-ngan  to  be  visited  as  we  returned,  we 
foimd  ourselves  on  rising  within  sight  of  Ngan-chow,  a  small  walled  city  of 
some  10,000  inhabitants.  It  is  mainly  occupied  by  an  agricultural  population, 
and  seems  poor.    The  principal  trade  is  that  in  matting. 

**  At  the  east  gate  we  entered  the  temple  of  the  *  Cheng-wang.'  Erery 
Chinese  city  has  such  a  god.  The  idea  is  that,  as  in  this  life,  every  dtj  has  its 
magistrate,  to  whom  all  residents  are  subject ;  so,  in  the  spirit  world,  all  who 
have  ever  lived  in  that  city  and  died  there  are  subordinate  to  a  ghostly 
dignitary,  who  possesses  like  rank  with  his  earthly  brother.  Of  course  sa<^ 
a  dreadful  personage  should  have  worthy  homage,  and  accordingly  his  temple 
is  always  much  frequented. 

"  This  one  was  now  in  process  of  r^>air  and  extension,  New  buildiiigs  were 
near  completion,  and  numbers  of  clay  gods,  in  various  stages  of  progress,  'were 
ranged  around.  Some  were  as  yet  headless,  while  others  were  lacking  arms  or 
legs.  A  good  number  possessed  a  lump  of  earth  bound  up  with  wisps  of 
Qtraw,  which,  when  dry  enough,  would  be  the  basis  on  which  some  hideous 
mask  would  be  stuck ;  while  the  rest  of  the  rude  framework  is  hidden  by  a 
mass  of  gaudy  colouring  and  flimsy  robes.  How  strange  that  men  can  bow 
down  and  worship  that  which  they  have  thus  seen  formed  out  of  the  coarsest 
materials !  The  bystanders  are  always  ready  to  laugh  at  the  gods ;  but  *  It  is 
the  custom  to  worship,  and  they  cannot  give  it  up :  their  ^o^^^*  did  it " — an  all- 
sufficient  argument  with  Chinamen.    Saving  our  strength — ^for  in  such

one  oaa  always  count  upon  the  crowd  following,  and  can  choose  one's  own 
time — ^we  pushed  on  for  the  market-place.  This  was  a  busy  spot.  The 
market,  a  general  one,  is  held  every  fifth  day.  There  could  not  be  less  than 
5000  people  present ;  and  this  was  said  to  be  no  unusual  number.  Choosing 
an  open  space,  we  climbed  the  high  terrace  of  a  temple ;  and,  there  being 
a  stone  pillar  incense-stand  in  front  of  the  building,  I  took  this  for  a  pulpit, 
and  so  got  command  oyer  the  people.  It  was  an  exciting  moment.  The  noise 
wafl  deafening,  and  my  heart  sank  within  me.  To  speak  to  a  couple  of 
thousand  people  in  a  foreign  language  is  enough  to  try  most  men's  nerves. 
For  (me  who  had  been  so  ^ort  a  time  amongst  them  it  seemed  almost  folly. 
It  is  at  such  seasons  that  the  promise  "  I  am  with  you  alway  "  is  felt  to  be  the 
most  precious. 

DEBCBIPTION  OF  PAU-TING-FU  AND  ITS  SUPBB8TITIONS. 

''A  long  walk  through  the  city  was  our  next  business.  The  i>opulation, 
according  to  popular  estimate,  is  100,000.  We  thought  it  more  probably 
150,000.  There  are  several  good  streets,  and  many  respectaUe  shops.  We 
noticed  that  curio  and  book  shops  were  the  most  numerous.  A  common 
trade  is  that  of  lapidary  and  pipe-stem  qiaker.  Every  one  is  more  or  less 
mixed  up  with  the  many  public  offices. 

"  (ilimbing  the  K'd-leu  (or  Drum  Tower),  we  got — as  one  usually  can  from 
such  places,  which  are  built  in  the  centre  of  the  city — a  good  view  of  all  within 
the  walls.  The  walls  enclose  about  a  square  mile  of  ground,  part  of  which, 
however,  is  vacant,  and  other  large  spaces  are  filled  by  public  offices  and 
tenxples.  There  are  many  trees,  and  these,  with  the  hills  on  the  west^  add 
much  to  the  pleasantness  of  the  town. 

*'  Afew  steps  from  the  K'il-leu  was  the  bell  tower.  The  building  is  in  bad 
repair ;  but  a  large  bell  still  hangs  from  heavy  beams  inside.  We  made  our 
way  to  the  Mohammedan  mosque.  It  proved  a  poor  affair — a  sort  of  second- 
rate  temple,  and  less  cleanly  than  usuaL  The  Ah-hung,  a  nice  old  man, 
seventy  years  of  age,  with  venerable  white  beard,  was  kindly  in  his  welcome, 
and  had  many  questions  to  ask.  He  told  us  there  were  200  families  in  his 
flock,  which  thus  represented  the  Mohammedan  element  in  the  population  at 
about  1000  souls.  The  crowd  was  a  most  difficult  congregation  to  interest. 
An  old  man,  with  whom  Hall  had  a  warm  discussion,  and  an  intelligent  youth 
named  Ma,  pleased  us  much. 

"  Our  next  visit  was  to  a  smaller  temple  still.  A  man  here  surprised  us  by 
saying  he  came  from  I-li,  a  place  on  the  Russian  frontiers  at  least  1300  li 
(420  English  miles)  distant.  We  were  glad  to  tell  him  '  strange  things'  he 
had  never  heard  before.  But  it  is  a  hard  task — almost  a  hopeless  one — ^to 
attempt  to  convey  the  truth  to  such  in  a  few  words ;  the  Gk)spel  is  so  diverse 
from  any  of  a  heathen's  previous  conceptions.  Further  on  we  entered  an 
immense  temple,  covering,  with  its  buildings  and  courts,  a  couple  of  English 
acres.  One  would  need  pages  to  describe  such  a  place.  The  large  front  court 
has  two  long  buildings,  verandah'd,  running  along  its  sides,  in  each  of  which 
are  twenty-seven  clay  figures  much  larger  than  life.  They  are  in  groups  of 
three  figures  each.  The  centre  one  is  supposed  to  be  one  of  the  presiding 
gods  of  Hades,  while  the  two  in  front  of  him  represent,  th^^fi^B^  scribe, 


252  MISSIONARY  MAGAZINE 

holding  a  scroll  containing  the  record  of  some  guilty  mortal's  crimefl,  and  tlie 
other  an  executioner  or  tormentor,  whose  mission  it  is  to  seize  and  pimififa. 
The  faces  of  the  infernal  constables  were  diabolical.  A  large  building  at  the 
end  of  this  court  contained  a  large  image  of  the  queen  of  heaven. 

"  In  the  second  court  the  most  curious  things  were  the  crowds  of  figures  in 
some  of  the  rooms  iii  which  they  worship  the  goddess  who  is  beliered  to  hare 
power  to  avert  or  to  heal  that  terrible  Chinese  scourge  the  small-pox.  In 
one  corner  there  is  a  sort  of  house,  and  a  female  figure  is  coming  out  of  the 
door  offering  medicine.  On  all  sides  are  children  in  every  stage  of  the  disease, 
many  of  them  hideous  objects,  little  clay  images,  painted,  one  would  t^inV, 
from  nature. 

"  The  hall  of  the  goddess  who  presides  over  the  birth  of  children  was,  as  at 
Tien-tsin,  filled  with  little  figures — ^the  gifts  of  mothers  who  believed  that  their 
prayers  for  posterity  had  been  answered. 

"  At  the  back  of  all  is  the  shrine  of  tf-hwang-shang-ti,  the  Buddhist  *  king 
of  heaven ;'  while  the  chief  in  honour  of  this  many-shrined  idol  temple  would 
seem  to  be  a  gigantic  god  placed  in  a  separate  hall,  and  which  was  described 
to  us  as  the  *  Prince  of  the  Devils.'  Altogether,  one  could  hardly  exaggerate 
in  saying  that  there  were  thousandroi  gods  here.  The  place  offers  splendid 
facilities  for  impressing  the  superstitious,  and  must  be  most  effective  at  their 
midnight  festivals,  when  all  that  is  tawdry  is  hidden  by  the  darkn^s,  and 
countless  lamps  of  varied  colours  make  the  scene  strangely  brilliant  and 
exciting. 

ASPECT  OP   FRENCH  EOMANISM. 

"  Attached  to  the  temple  were  the  residences  of  four  or  five  priests.  Th^ 
had  four  lads  training  for  the  priesthood.  A  large  court  was  prettily  arranged 
with  small  ponds  and  shrubs  in  pots.  We  were  surprised  to  find  a  Lazanst 
priest  had  quarters  here.  Hearing  of  our  neighbourhood,  he  sent  a  man  to 
invite  us  to  call.  He  turned  out  to  be  a  Frenchman  whom  I  had  met  before, 
having  seen  him  in  their  cathedral  at  Peking  one  Sabbath  afternoon,  where  he 
was  engaged  in  superintending  the  painting  of  some  forms.  His  present  employ- 
ment appeared  equally  characteristic.  He  was  studying  a  newspaper.  He 
met  us  with  all  the  politeness  of  his  country ;  and  we  had  a  long  chat  about  the 
language  and  character  of  the  people,  the  past  histoiy  and  present  prospects  of 
Christianity  in  China,  and  kindred  topics.  Like  all  his  brethren,  our  friend 
was  dressed  in  native  style — ^tail  and  all.  But  his  clothes  were  those  of  a 
gentleman,  of  fine  material  and  well  made,  and  in  every  respect  it  was  plain 
that  he  well  understood  how  to  secure  comfort.  The  two  or  three  natives  who 
were  with  him  watched  his  every  look,  and  were  ready  to  do  his  slightest 
"bidding.  Through  an  open  door  we  could  see  into  an  inner  room,  where 
a  black  cross  upon  the  table  and  one  or  two  other  emblems  told  their  own 
tale.  Our  Romish  *  confreres '  are  a  singular  race,  and  one  is  often  in  doubt 
whether  to  adinire  or  condemn. 

**  This  priest's  missionary  life  has  extended  over  eighteen  years,  and  has 
been  mainly  spent  in  Mongolia  and  Thibet,  where,  among  races  as  yet  almost 
unthought  of  by  Protestants,  many  a  nobly -bom  Catholic  has  fought  and  won 
the  battles  of  his  Chnrch.  When  shall  we  see  more  of  such  consecration  in 
the  service  of  a  purer  faith  P  ^.^^^^^^  ^^  L^OOgLC

"  Latterly  M has  been  ordered  south,  and  liis  present  station  is  Clien- 

ting-fu,  a  few  miles  to  the  south-west.  He  spoke  of  the  present  state  of 
Romish  Missions  as  promising.  They  have  numerous  converts  in  every 
province,  but  have  been  least  successful  in  Kan-su.  He  felt  bitterly  as  to  the 
opposition  shown  by  native  officials.  In  former  days  his  own  life  had  been  in 
danger.  Not  far  from  this  very  city  400  troops  were  once  sent  to  seek  him. 
He  fled ;  but  a  letter  of  his  falling  into  the  hands  of  the  mandarins,  they  inter- 
cepted him  and  sent  him  to  Shanghae  for  deportation.  Instead  of  obeying,  he 
sucxjeeded  in  getting  back  at  once  to  his  work. 

"  Their  position  at  Pau-ting-fu  seems  to  have  been  over-painted.  They  have 
no  resident  European  priest,  and  but  few  converts.  The  priest  we  saw  is  in 
the  habit  of  visiting  the  place  at  irregular  intervals,  but  that  is  all. 

"  I  felt  anxious,  if  possible,  to  test  our  friend's  sympathies,  and  to  get  some- 
expression  of  deeper  interest  in  the  work.  It  woidd  have  been  a  pleasure  to* 
think  of  him  as  truly  a  brother.  I  might  have  known  better  than  to  attempt 
to  surprise  him.  His  remarks  were  strangely  cold  and  matter-of-fact.  No- 
enthusiasm — no  appai-ent  consciousness  of  the  sublime  issues  involved  in  the 
Gospel  ministry.  And  yet  there  was  'complete  consecration.'  Is  it  that 
which  springs  from  love,  or  the  offspring  of  human  self- righteousness  ?  Mr.. 
Hall  asked  whether  he  thought  of  returning  to  Europe  ?  *  No.'  *  You  feel 
that  you  are  here  for  life  ?'  *  We  have  bought  a  graveyard  in  Cheng- ting-fii.' 
In  communicating  truth,  he  said,  their  practice  is  to  begin  with  the  statement 
of  the  being,  unity,  and  fatherhood  of  God — a  truth  which  he  represented  as 
needing  much  time  and  labour  to  impress  upon  a  Chinese  mind.  The  stories 
of  the  creation  and  the  fall,  and  the  doctrine  of  original  and  actual  sin,  come 
next.  As  to  the  '  mystery  of  the  life  and  death  of  Jesus,'  they  do  not  say 
much  at  first,  reserving  the  teaching  for  a  much  more  advanced  stage.  He 
would  not  state  clearly  how  much  knowledge  they  required  previous  to 
baptism,  but  said  their  candidates  were  usually  kept  a  year  on  probation  at 
least,  and  rarely  disappointed  them.  (We  know  fix>m  many  som-ces  that  thia 
is  far  from  fact.)  He  laid  great  stress  on  the  filial  obedience  and  respect 
which  they  required  from  all  as  a  great  element  in  their  success.  His  hopes 
of  future  progress  rested  largely  on  family  influence.  We  parted  the  best 
of  Mends. 

A  NATIVE   CHABACTEB. 

**  After  dinner  we  got  two  more  good  audiences.  One  was  in  an  open  space 
outside  the  west  gate,  where  many  women  were  listeners.  The  other  was  at 
a  tea-shop,  which,  on  the  invitation  of  its  owner,  we  entered  for  a  rest.  Mr. 
Pan  proved  an  interesting  fellow.  As  he  subsequently  told  us,  he  has  been 
•wild,  and  given  to  gambling ;  and  a  son  of  his,  following  the  father's  bad- 
example,  had  entered  evil  courses.  But  the  man  himself  had  reformed ;  and 
"we  were  not  a  little  touched  by  his  exulting  manner  as  he  told  us  how  his  boy 
had  come  home  a  penitent,  and  was  now  steady.  He  grew  almost  angry 
-when  the  native  offered  money  for  the  cup  of  tea,  and,  finding  me  a  form  to 
stand  upon  at  the  door,  kept  order  for  me,  and  held  the  form  steady  at  the 
eame  time. 

"  We  had  hardly  sat  down  to  supper  before  this  man  burst  in  with  a  present 
of  cakes.    He  must  have  set  off  to  buy  them  the  instant  we  left  his  shop.    The 


254  MIS8I0NAEY  MAGAZINE 

present  was  a  large  one  for  a  Chinaman — ^worth  1*.  6d, — and  we  did  not  like 
receiying  it ;  but  the  man's  fSEice  compelled  ns,  and  I  therefore  repaid  hia  kind- 
ness by  the  g[ift  of  a  few  books. 

EARNEST   DEMAND   FOB  SOBIPTUBES   AND   OTHEB   BOOKS. 

"  Tuesda^f,  May  3rd. — ^There  is  more  to  encourage  in  the  eonaUer  places. 
Stopping  for  half  an  honr  at  Ngan-chow,  we  had  a  repetition  of  the  excite- 
ment on  our  first  visit ;  so  that  it  was  a  relief  to  get  away.  The  peofde  were 
so  eager  for  books  that  it  was  hardly  possible  to  preach.  At  noon  we  reached 
Hsin-ngan,  the  hien  city  left  nnvisited  on  our  way  up.  At  first,  poor  and 
shy,  gaping  with  wonder  at  onr  strange  appearance  and  stranger  words,  which 
they  could  not  comprehend,  the  people  talked  to  each  other  in  loud  whispers, 
and  looked  anything  but  friendly.  By-and-by  we  gained  their  confidence. 
One  or  two  ventured  to  buy.  I  told  them  a  Gospel  story,  and  now  we  were 
popular.  They  led  us  a  weary  chase.  Soon  every  smaller  book  was  gone,  and 
several  Testaments.  Hundreds  followed  us  on  to  the  wall,  where  we  had  hoped 
to  escape.  A  few  good-humoured  replies  to  their  sallies,  which  turned  the 
laugh  on  our  assailants,  and,  above  aU,  a  good  race,  in  which  the  crowd,  with 
much  puffing,  managed  to  run  as  fast  as  I  could  walk,  made  these  simple  folks 
our  firm  Mends.  The  throng  of  cheerful  faces  which  bade  us  farewell  did  one 
good.  'Again  see — again  see.'  '  Won't  you  come  soon  P'  'I  hope  so,  and  bring 
plenty  of  books.'  *  But  when  P  when  P'  I  have  not  a  shadow  of  doubt  thai 
the  books  are  infinitely  more  valuable  than  if  we  had  given  them. 

BBTTTBN  TO  TIEN-TSIN. 

"  Thursday,  May  6th, — In  the  canal  between  the  lake  and  the  Ta-ching  we 
met  quite  a  fleet  of  salt  junks.  As  one  consignment,  it  spoke  volumes  as  to 
the  trade  which  passes  along  these  streams.  There  were  sixty  vessels,  and,  by 
a  little  calculation,  I  found  that  they  carried  salt  to  the  value  of  about 
£2000.  The  supercargo's  boat  closed  the  procession.  It  was  thorongfafy 
well  furnished. 

"  Leaving  our  boat  when  yet  thirty  li  firom  the  city,  we  walked  in.  It  was 
an  agreeable  proof  that  Mr.  Hall  had  benefited  from  his  journey  that  he 
could,  with  little  difficulty,  bear  this  long  walk. 

"  We  were  permitted  to  find  all  friends  well,  and  that  the  work  of  our 
respective  Missions  was  advancing  much  as  usual.  And  thus,  with  grateful 
hearts,  we  closed  what  has  been  to  both  of  us  a  very  pleasant  trip. 

"  In  the  thirteen  days  we  have  addressed  over  10,000  people,  and  sold  about 
1600  books.

SOrTH   TRAVAKCOKE— NAGERCOIL. 

We  have  frequently  had  the  great  pleasure  of  reporting  the  variaas  and 
successfdl  efforts  of  the  Native  Christians  in  different  parts  of  British  India, 
in  aid  of  the  cause  to  which  they  are  such  incalculable  debtors.     Por  many 


FOR  SEPTEMBER,    1865.  255 

years  the  missionaries  were  often  obliged  to  appeal  to  their  secular  interests 
in  commending  to  them  the  blessings  of  the  Gospel.  But  now  happily  they 
have  learnt  to  appreciate  these  blessings ;  and  in  obedience  to  the  commands 
of  Christ,  and  in  token  of  gratitude  for  His  unspeakable  love,  they  offer 
liberally  their  contributions  for  the  support  and  advancement  of  His  kingdom. 
This  spirit  of  liberality  is  the  more  gratifying  especially  in  Tkavaj^coke, 
since  the  people  are  imiversally  poor — that  is,  they  labour  hard  to  earn  but 
little;  and,  in  proportion  to  their  poverty,  their  self-denying  generosity 
must  be  more  highly  admired. 

We  wish  that  the  Church  of  Christ  imiversally  were  actuated  by  the  same 
Christian  zeal  that  animates  the  poor  saints  of  Travancore,  and  then  the 
number  of  faithful  missionaries  in  every  dark  land  would  bear  some  nearer 
proportion  to  the  necessities  and  miseries  of  the  perishing  heathen. 

"  Nagercoil,  July  3rd,  1865. 
"  My  dear  Dr.  Tidman, — You  are  always  glad  I  know  to  hear  of  progress 
in  our  Travancore  Mission,  and  1  now  send  you  a  brief  communication  with 
reference  to  a  matter  of  much  interest  and  importance  to  the  Native  Church 
liere. 

EARLY  EFFORTS  TOWARDS  SELF-SUPPORT. 

''Upwards  of  two  years  ago  a  movement  was  commenced  at  the  head 
station  of  this  district  by  the  people  themselves,  having  for  its  object  the 
entire  supporting,  by  the  Native  Christians,  of  the  catechist  of  the  congre- 
gation. The  matter  was  taken  up  and  entered  upon  very  enthusiastically, 
and  a  considerable  sum  of  money  was  immediately  collected.  Those  who  had 
no  money  to  give  parted  with  their  jewels  and  personal  ornaments  of  various 
kinds ;  some  gave  turbans  and  valuable  clothes,  kept  for  special  occasions, 
others  brought  brass  vessels,  cocoa-nuts,  and  umbrellas ;  and  one  zealous 
brother  even  subscribed  his  cow  !  Since  then  money  for  the  purpose  has  been 
raised  in  various  ways,  and  it  has  been  abundantly  proved  that  not  only  do 
the  people  possess  the  means,  but,  what  is  of  more  consequence,  they  are 
forward  in  the  work  with  a  ready  and  willing  mind. 

SYSTEMATIC  MOVEMENT. 

"  At  first  the  matter  partook  largely  of  the  nature  of  an  experiment,  and 
the  missionaries  of  the  station,  while  watching  its  progress  with  great 
interest,  abstained  from  directly  identifying  themselves  with  it ;  thus  giving 
our  native  brethren  a  fair  chance  of  showing  whether,  having  themselves 
initiated  the  movement,  they  could  themselves  also  cany  it  successfully 
forward.  The  result,  I  am  glad  to  say,  has  proved  highly  satisfactory;  but, 
in  order  on  the  one  hand  to  insure  regtUarity  of  payment  of  subscriptionB 
into  the  treasurer's  hands,  and,  on  the  other,  sysietncUtc givinghj  the  people,  a 
re-arrangement  of  some  important  details  has  just  been  agreed  upon,  and  the 
-whole  matter  placed  upon  a  more  satisfactoiy  and  permanent  basis  than 
heretofore.  A  meeting  was  held  a  few  evenings  ago,  when  the  question  was 
folly  discussed,  and  yesterday  (Sunday)  afternoon  the  people  met  a  second 
time,  when,  the  matter  having  been  talked  over  again,  the  names  of  contri- 
butors, with  the  sums  promised  to  be  paid  monthly  by  each,  were  duly 


256  MISSIONABY  MAOAZnCE 

entered  in  a  book  prepared  for  the  purpose.  One  very  important  object 
being  to  interest  every  member  of  the  congregation  in  this  matter,  howerer 
poor,  it  was  explained  to  them  that  small  contributions  from  all  would  be 
far  preferable  to  large  sums  given  by  a  few  only  of  the  more  wealthy.  The 
subscription  list  thus  consists  throughout  of  a  number  of  small  sums ;  but  it 
was  found  at  the  close  of  the  meeting  that  more  had  been  promised  than  is  at 
present  actually  necessary  to  meet  the  outlay.  This  is  very  encouraging,  and 
the  people  themselves  were  evidently  surprised  to  find  how  much  they  could 
do.  The  plan  agreed  upon  is  simple,  and  the  sum  each  will  have  to  pay 
monthly  is  so  trifling  that  it  will  be  burdensome  to  none.  Thus  we  have  at 
least  one  congregation  in  our  Travancore  Mission  paying  their  teacher's 
salary  in  full  in  a  systematic  way.  This  too,  it  should  be  mentioned,  in 
addition  to  what  is  contributed  by  them  for  the  London  Missionary  Society 
Auxiliary,  the  Bible,  and  Tract,  and  other  benevolent  Societies. 

*'  I  regard  this  movement  here,  and  others  of  a  similar  nature  elsewhere,  as 
of  very  gi'eat  importance  to  our  Mission  generally.  Only  a  few  days  ago  I 
had  the  pleasure  of  being  present  at  a  meeting  of  Native  Christians  at  Neyoor, 
w^hen  this  matter  formed  the  subject  of  earnest  and  prayerful  deliberation ; 
and  I  have  little  doubt  arrangements  similar  to  those  above  stated  will  be 
made  there  also.  The  movement  must  work  upwards,  and  I  expect  by-and- 
by  that  the  larger  congregations*  at  the  out-stations  in  the  various  districts 
^ill  begin  to  consider  whether  they  cannot  do  something  in  the  s^ne 
direction. 

NATIVE  AaENCT. 

"  From  an  Abstract  of  the  Society's  Annual  Report,  just  come  to  hand,  I 
observe  great  prominence  is  being  given  by  the  Directoi*s  to  the  question  of 
establishing  a  Native  Pastorate  in  the  Native  Churches  connected  with  the 
Missions  of  the  Society.  The  time  has  come,  I  believe,  when,  in  our  Travan- 
core Mission,  this  matter  ought  to  be  earnestly  considered.  And,  now  that 
the  people  are  beginning  to  see  what  their  duty  is,  we  may  hope  that,  at  no 
very  distant  date,  a  few  at  least  of  our  large  congregations  will  be  presided 
over  by  native  pastors  supported  by  themselves;  thus  to  some  extent 
relieving  the  European  missionary  of  work  among  the  Christians,  and 
enabling  him  to  open  up  new  fields  of  evangelistic  enterprise  among  the  great 
masses  of  the  people  round  about  us,  upon  whom,  as  yet,  it  has  been  found 
impossible  to  bestow  that  amount  of  patient,  continued,  and  persevering  toil 
which  this  description  of  work  so  pressingly  demands.  The  work  of  establish- 
ing a  native  pastorate  ought  not  to  be  proceeded  with  in  haste.  We  must  be 
qpiite  sure  of  the  men  into  whose  hands  such  responsibilities  are  entrusted ; 
nor  ought  we  yet  to  expect  too  much  of  the  Churches.  Still  the  time  seems 
to  have  arrived  when  a  commencement  should  be  made ;  and,  by  the  blessing 
of  God,  I  doubt  not  we  shall  see  greater  success  in  Travancore  than  yet  our 
eyes  have  been  privileged  to  behold.

OBITUARY  OF  AN  AGED  l^ATIYE  TEACHER. 

We  have  selected  from  The  Church  Missionary  Record  the  following  brief 
narrative  of  a  Native  Teacher  who  bore  the  heat  and  burden  of  a  long  day 
in  the  service  of  his  Divine  Saviour,  and  who  continued  long  beyond  the 
term  usually  granted  to  the  life  of  man  to  labour  "  in  season  and  out  of 
season  "  to  turn  sinners  from  the  error  of  their  way.  From  his  history  we 
may  learn  how  one  with  limited  ability  and  humble  position  may  accomplish, 
under  God*s  blessing,  great  results,  and  how  the  Gospel,  which  the  faithful 
evangelist  commends  to  his  idolatrous  countrymen,  becomes  tho  strength  and 
solace  of  his  own  spirit  under  the  infirmities  of  age  and  the  approach  of  death. 

"  Old  Yedhamnttu,  a  catechist,  and  well  known  by  all  Christians  in  Madras, 
was  the  friend  of  all  Missions,  though  from  choice  connecting  himself  with 
the  Church  Mission  chapel  native  congregation.  As  a  pupil  of  Swartz,  he 
had  known  that  eminent  labom^er,  and  well  remembered  his  pious  sayings 
and  zealous  deeds.  With  an  enlightened  knowledge  of  the  Holy  Scriptures, 
he  possessed  also  much  deep  experience,  and  it  did  one  good  to  hear  him  bear 
his  own  simple  testimony  for  the  truth  in  a  manner  at  once  unaffected  and 
earnest.  Although  covered  with  age  and  infirmity,  he  was  very  active ;  so 
that,  whether  well  or  ill,  he  would  always  be  going  about,  making  himself 
nsefiil.  He  generally  occupied  himself  by  reading  to  servants  in  private 
houses,  visiting  the  sick  in  hospitals,  working  outside  among  coachmen  and 
horsekeepers  while  their  employers  were  at  church,  and  preaching  in  bazaars 
and  streets.  In  former  years  he  received  some  monthly  assistance  from  the 
Scripture-readers*  Society  for  such  services;  but  for  a  long  time  his  only 
support  was  a  breakfast  here  and  a  dinner  there,  as  circumstances  pennitted, 
in  Chiistian  families,  with  a  stated  allowance  from  General  Browne,  who,  to 
the  last,  proved  a  steady  friend  and  kind  benefactor  to  him.  Few  native 
catechists  have  proved  so  useful  as  this  deservedly  worthy  man,  and  there  is 
no  Mission  church  in  Madras  that  has  not  received  some  in  its  connection 
through  his  instrumentality.  Having  sei-ved  his  God  and  generation  for 
many  yeai-s,  he  fell  asleep  in  Jesus  on  the  9th  of  November  last.  His  last 
moments  cannot  be  forgotten.  He  had  borrowed  a  little  money  to  rebuild 
his  house,  and  which  he  had  promised  to  repay  by  small  instalments.  There 
was  a  balance  still  due ;  and  his  grandchildren,  fearing  they  would  be  called 
to  adjust  it,  were  anxious  he  should  say  something  about  this  account  before 
he  departed.  They  rushed  to  him,  therefore,  with  their  apprehensions, 
though  they  were  repeatedly  asked  not  to  disturb  his  mind  with  the  matter, 
as  it  did  not  signify  whether  the  account  was  settled  or  not.  On  being 
reminded  of  it,  the  old  man  tried  to  say  something  about  the  transaction,  but 
the  missionary  begged  him  not  to  give  it  a  thought,  but  to  think  of  the 
account  he  had  with  his  God.  Upon  hearing  this,  the  good  old  man  started 
for  a  moment  with  surprise,  and,  mustering  all  his  energy,  exclaimed,  *  Oh, 
that  account  has  been  settled  long  ago :  there  is  no  account  there  (pointing 
npwards)  against  me  now:  it  has  all  been  paid  for  me  by  Jesus  Christ. 
While  Christ  is  for  me,  who  is  there  that  can  condemn  me  ?  He  died  and 
rose  again,  and  is  even  now  at  the  right  hand  of  the  Father,  for  me.*    Then,

stretcliiiig  forward  both  liis  hands,  he  added,  *  Don't  joa  see  He  is  taking  me 
up  in  His  arms  before  the  throne  of  His  Father?'  After  this  he  strove  to 
speak  again,  but  could  not,  his  voice  having  utterly  failed  him.  At  first  the 
missionary  felt  grieved  and  annoyed  with  his  family  for  troubling  the  venerable 
man  about  such  trifling  matters ;  but  when  he  found  this  was  the  occasion  of 
such  testimony  to  the  sufficiency  and  efficacy  of  the  Redeemer's  merits  and 
mediation,  he  felt  most  thankful  for  it.  Indeed,  *  believing,  he  rejoiced  with 
joy  unspeakable  and  full  of  glory.'  Even  some  of  the  more  respectable  part 
of  the  congregation  considered  it  a  privilege  to  go  and  receive  his  parting 
blessing  for  themselves  and  their  families  as  he  was  sinking.  '  The  path  of 
the  just  is  as  the  shining  light,  that  shineth  more  and  more  unto  the  perfect 
day'  (Prov.  iv.  18).  Again,  'Mark  the  perfect  man,  and  behold  the  upright : 
for  the  end  of  that  man  is  peace '  (Fs.  xxxvii.  37).  He  was  said  to  be  ninety- 
eight  yeai*s  of  age ;  perhaps  100  would  have  been  nearer  the  mark.  Although 
so  old,  his  sight,  and  hearing,  and  mental  feiculties  remained  nearly  unim- 
paired to  the  last.  It  was  only  a  few  weeks  before  his  death  the  missionary 
saw  him  out  preaching  to  a  number  of  people  opposite  a  bazaar,  about  a  mile 
away  from  his  own  dwelling,  and  so  early  as  about  seven  in  the  morning. 
His  funeral  was  attended  by  a  large  and  mixed  midtitude  of  all  classes.  Chris- 
tian and  heathen,  native  and  East  Indian.  After  reading  the  usual  service, 
the  missionary  addressed  the  spectators  from  Job  v.  26,  and  so  closed  the 
solemnities  of  the  occasion." 


POLYNESIA. 
SAMOA. 
We  commend  the  following  report  of  the  Rev.  A.  "W.  Mukrat  to  the  speeM 
attention  of  the  friends  of  Missions.  As  they  read  it,  they  will  remember 
that,  not  more -than  thirty  years  since,  the  first  English  missionaries  landed  on 
the  shores  of  Samoa — the  writer  of  this  report  being  himself  one  of  the 
original  number.  The  facts  which  he  details  in  the  subjoined  communication 
cannot  fail  to  awaken  wonder  and  thankfulness,  and  to  encourage  our  trust 
in  the  power  of  the  Gospel,  when  accompanied  by  the  grace  of  the  Holy 
Spirit,  to  elevate  the  most  degraded  of  our  race,  so  that  they  may  become 
honourable  members  of  the  Church  of  God.  Let  it  also  be  remembered  that 
the  fertile  spot  cultivated  by  Mr.  Murray  in  the  Island  of  Upolit  is  but  a 
specimen  of  the  Christian  cultivation  carried  on  throughout  the  Samoan 
Group,  where  the  number  of  Christian  Churches,  with  the  Native  Teachen 
as  well  as  their  European  brethren,  are  vigorously  prosecuting  their  labours 
with  similar  proofis  of  the  Divine  blessing. 

"  Apia,  Upolu,  Samoa, 

"January  9th,  1865. 

"  Deab  Bbothee, — I  have  to  acknowledge  the  receipt  of  your  Idnd  letter 

of  date  June  27th,  1864.    I  need  hardly  remark  that  I  am  much  gratified 

with  the  contents  of  your  letter.  That  the  steps  taken  in  Sydney  with  re£eici^ 

to  our  return  to  the  Mission-field,  and  the  subsequent  proceedings  of  ^ 


FOR  SEFTEMBERy    1865.  269 

Committee  here,  have  met  with  the  cordial  sanction  of  the  Directors  is  to 
me  matter  of  special  satisfaction.  I  am  once  more  permitted  to  be  engaged 
in  the  work  I  love ;  and  I  rejoice  to  inform  jon  that,  so  far,  everything  seems 
to  indicate  that  in  returning  to  Samoa,  and  to  this  owe  former  station,  we  have 
been  following  the  leadings  of  Providence. 

PBOGBB8S  OF  THB  MISSION. 

"And  as  regards  the  state  of  things  both  here  and  throughout  the  district, 
all  looks  in  the  same  direction.  There  has  been  steady  progress  among  the 
natives ;  and  the  foreign  opposition,  of  which  I  gave  you  an  account  in  my 
last,  was  of  short  duration,  and  all  is  now  pretty  much  as  it  used  to  be  in 
former  years.  The  cultivation  of  cotton  has  drawn  off  numbers  to  too  great 
a  distance  to  allow  of  their  attending  services  here. 

"  By  the  way,  cotton-planting  is  likely  to  exert  an  important  influence  upon 
the  future  history  of  this  group.  Not  only  foreigners,  but  natives  also,  are 
entering  largely  into  it.  It  is  likely  soon,  in  a  g^eat  measure,  to  supersede 
the  trade  in  cocoa-nut-oil,  owing  to  an  extensive  blight  which  has  come  upon 
the  cocoa-nuts. 

NATIYB    OHBISTIAN  COMMXTNITIBS. 

"  We  have  three  or  four  cases  among  the  foreigners  which  awaken  hope, 
but  they  are  not  sufficiently  decided  to  warrant  my  saying  much  at  present. 
Mr.  Hamilton,  of  whose  remarkable  conversion  I  told  you  in  former  years,  is 
a  steady,  consistent  Christian.  He  is  a  great  help  to  me  in  many  ways. 
While  speaking  of  foreigners,  I  may  just  refer  to  a  very  interesting  class,  a 
large  number  of  whom  have  of  late  been  reclaimed  from  vicious  courses  and 
have  become  hopeful  Christians.  I  allude  to  natives  of  several  groups  who 
are  congregated  here,  and  who  have  of  late  formed  themselves  into  a  distinct 
community.  They  are  composed  of  Tahitians,  Barotogans,  Sandwich 
Islanders,  Tongans,  &c.  A  few  months  since  a  Earotogan  teacher  was 
appointed  to  labour  among  th^n.  They  have  built;  a  very  neat  place  of 
worship  in  which  to  hold  w«ek  and  occasional  services.  They  attend  with  us 
on  Sabbaths,  as  they  all  know  more  or  less  of  the  Samoan  language.  On  the 
whole,  they  are  a  very  interesting  community.  They  contributed  towards 
i^e  fimds  of  the  Society  this  year  about  £20.  In  most  cases  they  are  married 
to  Samoan  women. 

STATISTICS. 

« Among  the  natives  throughout  the  district  we  have  satisfactory  ndica- 
tions  of  progress.  The  numbers  in  our  churches,  schools,  and  candidates' 
classes  are  as  follows : — 

"  In  the  Church  at  Apia  there  are,  males,  184,  females,  227 — total,  411 ; 
candidates,  males,  127,  females,  137 — total,  264;  schools,  boys,  325,  girls, 
239 — in  all,  564.  At  Salua&ta :  church  members,  males,  144,  females,  160 
— ^total,  304;  candidates,  males,  49,  females,  74— total,  12^;  children  in 
schools,  boys,  219,  girls,  176 — in  all,  395.  At  Tagaloa :  church  members, 
males,  94,  females,  102 — total,  196 ;  candidates,  males,  12,  females,  29 — total, 
41 ;  children  in  schools,  231.  Thus  we  have,  in  all  the  churches,  911  members, 
428  candidates  at  the  different  stations,  and  1190  children  in  the  schools. 

'*  The  amount  raised  during  the  past  year,  in  connection  with  the  cause  of 


260  MISSIONARY   MAGAZINE 

God,  is  as  follows : — At  Apia,  for  the  London  Missionary  Society,  £131 11*.  6d,; 
SaluafjEita  and  Tagaloa,  £80  12*.  4d,;  total  for  the  London  Missionary  Society, 
£212  3*.  lOd.  For  the  support  of  their  own  teachers  in  the  Apia  district, 
£159 10s.  6d. ;  Saluafata  and  Tagaloa,  £99 17*. ;  total,  £259  7».  6d.  Towards  the 
purchase  of  a  new  Missionary  Ship  the  children  have  raised  £42  8*. ;  making 
in  all,  £513  19*.  4rf. — the  largest  sum  we  have  ever  raised  in  a  single  year. 

EAGERNESS   OP  THE  NATIVES  TO  OBTAIN  BIBLES. 

**  In  addition  to  this,  the  proceeds  of  Bibles  sold  during  the  year  amount  to 
about  £240.  These  Bibles  have  not  been  all  sold  to  people  of  this  district;  the 
bulk  of  the  foreign  population  being  resident  here,  the  natives  come  from  all 
quarters  to  find  a  market  for  their  produce,  and  obtain  money  to  purchase 
Bibles;  and,  having  got  that,  many  make  their  purchases  here  instead  of 
going  to  the  missionary  of  the  district  to  which  they  belong,  whose  residence, 
in  many  cases,  is  distant  from  their  homes. 

"  The  plans  which  the  people  adopt  to  obtain  money  to  purchase  Bibles  are 
worthy  of  remark.  Many  leave  their  homes  for  a  time  and  come  here  and 
work  for  the  foreign  residents,  some  as  day-labourers,  others  as  household 
servants,  till  they  earn  sufficient  to  purchase  one,  two,  or  more  Bibles,  as  the 
case  may  be.  Others  remain  in  the  neighbourhood  for  a  time,  and  go  a-fishing 
every  morning  :  the  fish  they  sell ;  and,  when  the  needful  amount  is  realized, 
the  Bible  or  Bibles  are  purchased,  and  they  return  to  their  homes.  We  have 
frequent  and  veiy  interesting  illustrations  of  the  old  maxim  that  *  where  there 
is  a  will  there  is  a  way.'  Taking  into  account  the  Bibles  sold  by  Mr.  Gee 
before  his  departure,  I  suppose  not  less  than  £400  worth  have  been  sold  here 
since  the  arrival  of  the  first  shipment,  some  eighteen  months  since ;  and  the 
proceeds  of  sales  during  this  year  throughout  the  group  exceed  £1500. 

VISIT  TO  PAASALELBAGA. 

"  During  the  months  of  October  and  November  last  we  spent  about  five 
weeks  at  the  Faasaleleaga,  the  district  lately  under  the  care  of  our  lam^ited 
brother  Mr.  Bird.  There  also  we  found  the  same  earnest  desire  to  possess 
the  Word  of  God  as  exists  elsewhere.  We  took  with  us  a  case  of  Bibles. 
These  were  all  bought  up  in  about  a  week ;  and  many  more  might  have  beoi 
sold  if  we  had  had  them.  Since  the  time  referred  to  another  shipment  of 
2000  copies  has  been  received,  and  a  further  supply  has  been  sent,  whidi  is 
being  eagerly  bought  up. 

"  I  was  cheered  to  find  the  state  of  things  throughout  the  district  referred 
to  on  the  whole  encouraging.  I  conversed  with  116  candidates,  about  sixty 
of  whom  were  admitted  to  the  different  churchea  Yery  few  cases  of  defection 
had  occurred  during  the  three  months  that  had  elapsed  since  Dr.  Turners 
visit,  and  all  was  quiet  throughout  the  district,  with  the  exception  of  a 
quarrel  which  had  sprung  up  in  Safotulafai,  which  is  not  likely  to  come  to 
much. 

"  The  children  raised  110  dols.  (£22)  towards  the  new^  Mission  Ship.  A 
gi-eat  interest  in  this  object  has  been  awakened  thi'oughout  the  group,  and  an 
influence  of  the  happiest  kind  exerted — an  influence  which  will  be  felt  in  all 
our  Missions  in  these  seas,  and  in  othei*  lands  far  beyond.  A  deeper  interest 
will  be  felt  in  the  Mission  Ship  than  has  ever  been  the  case  before.    And  this 


FOR   SKPTEMBER,    1865.  261 

interest  will  be  extended  to  the  object  for  whicli  the  Mission  Ship  goes  hither 
and  thither  among  us. 

"We  have  no  recent  information  respecting  onr  other  Missions  in  these 
seas.  Since  the  wreck  of  the  *  John  Williams  *  we  have  had  but  little  inter- 
course with  them. 

EPFOETS  OP  THE  ROMISH  PRIESTS. 

"  As  yet  we  are  unmolested  here  by  the  French.  The  Popish  priests  are 
making  extensive  preparations,  with  what  ulterior  views  does  not  at  present 
appear.  They  are  purchasing  large  quantities  of  land  and  erecting  buildings 
of  various  descriptions,  especially  in  this  neighbourhood.  In  some  places  they 
are  engaging  extensively  in  cotton-planting.  If  the  French  only  let  us  alone,  we 
don't  fear  them  much.  With  all  their  appliances,  they  make  marvellously  little 
progress.  We  have  at  present  two  bishops,  and  some  fourteen  or  fifteen  priests, 
and  two  or  three  sisters  of  charity.  These  reside  in  this  neighbourhood,  and 
have  a  few  girls  under  their  care.  The  priests  are  scattered  over  the  group. 
One  of  the  bishops  is  from  Wallis'  Group.  The  other  was  consecrated  here  a 
few  weeks  since.  A  great  effort  was  made  to  make  the  consecration  a  very 
imposing  affair  by  collecting  their  adherents  from  all  parts  of  the  island, 
longing  of  bells,  ^rtw^  of  cannon,  and  the  observance  of  endless  mummeries. 
It  is  a  mercy  that  these  things  to  a  great  extent  have  the  contrary  effect  to 
that  intended.  They  tend  to  open  the  eyes  of  the  people  to  the  unscriptural 
character  of  the  system  which  practises  such  absurdities. 

"  Nothing  else  occurs  to  me  at  present  calling  for  remark ;  so,  with  kind 
regards  to  yourself  and  the  Directors, 

"  I  remain,  dear  Brother, 

"  Tours  very  truly, 

"  Rev.  Dr.  Tidman."  "  A.  W.  Murray. 


RAIATEA. 

In  our  present  Kumber  we  record  the  departure  of  one  of  the  oldest  labourers 
in  the  islands  of  the  South  Pacific — the  Rev.  George  Platt  of  Raiatea.  Our 
Tenerable  friend  had  laboured  there  and  in  the  neighbouring  islands  for  half 
a  century,  and  had  witnessed  their  wonderful  transformation,  by  the  power 
and  grace  of  God,  from  a  state  of  the  grossest  idolatry  and  barbarism  into 
that  of  peaceful  Christian  conimunities. 

From  the  following  narrative  it  will  be  seen  how  highly  this  aged  servant 
of  God  was  beloved  by  the  natives  for  whom  his  labours  and  his  life  were 
spent,  and  how  generally  he  was  respected  by  the  entire  population  of  the 
island : — 

"  Raiatea,  April  6th,  1865. 
**  Dear  Sir, — It  is  with  sorrow  I  write  to  inform  you  of  the  departure  of  our 
venerable  and  honoured  brother  the  Rev.  G.  Piatt,  who  fell  asleep  in  Jesus 
about  one  o'clock  at  noon  on  the  4th  instant.  ^  , 

**  Although  he  had  for  some  months  past  suffered  from  extreme  weakness, 
yet  we  saw  no  material  alteration  up  to  Friday  last,  when,  for  the  first  time. 


262  MISStONART  MAGAZINE 

he  BEiiled  to  conduct  fiamily  worship.  That  eyening  an  evident  change  took 
place  in  his  appearance,  and  at  times  his  reason  seemed  to  leave  him.  The 
family  then  sent  for  me  to  go  down  and  hold  family  worship  with  them.  I 
fonnd  on  reaching  the  house  that  our  dear  brother  had  become  much 
weaker  during  the  day,  although  his  breathing  did  not  appear  quite  so  difficult 
as  on  the  previous  evening.  On  Mcmday  ev^iing,  after  prayers,  I  drew  my 
chair  near  to  the  sofa  where  he  was  lying,  and,  taking  him  by  the  hand,  I 
asked  him  how  he  felt,  and  if  he  feared  the  future ;  to  which  he  replied  in  a 
most  distinct  and  confident  manner,  'No,  oh  no!  I  have  no  fears  for  the 
future.' 

**  The  next  morning,  Tuesday,  Mama,  one  of  our  deacons,  went  to  him  and 
found  him  much  worse.  He  came  home  and  told  me  he  thought  our  hanonred 
brother  was  near  his  end,  and  that  during  the  night  he  had  become  quite 
insensible.  I  hastened  to  the  house,  and  on  my  way  met  some  one  coming  to 
fetch  me.  On  reaching  his  room  I  foxmd  the  fetmily  assembled  and  in  deep 
distress.  Our  dear  brother  was  lying  on  his  bed,  wresUing  with  the  last 
enemy :  his  breathing  was  very  irregular  and  short.  I  spoke  to  him,  but  he 
made  no  reply,  nor  had  he  spoken  so  as  to  be  understood  since  the  evening 
previous.  Towards  the  middle  of  the  day  he  appeared  to  breathe  more  easily, 
and  seemed  like  one  just  going  off  into  a  sweet  sleep.  He  continued  in  this 
state  for  about  half  an  hour,  when  he  became  more  restless,  and  muttered 
something  which  was  not  intelligible  to  us.  It  was  his  last  effort  to  speak  in 
this  world.  After  about  a  quarter  of  an  hour  we  all  surrounded  the  dying 
bed,  offered  prayer,  and  watched  his  departing  moments.  At  twenty  minutes 
before  one  o'clock  his  breathing  became  very  indistinct,  and  fire  minutes 
after  he  breathed  his  last.  It  may  be  truly  said  of  him, '  He  fell  asleep  in 
Jesus.' 

"  As  soon  as  our  feelings  became  a  little  tranquil,  I  came  home  and  sent  to 
Tahaa,  requesting  the  deacons  and  the  students  to  come,  if  possible,  to  the 
funeral  the  next  day. 

"  Yesterday  morning,  the  5th  instant,  the  people  continued  to  come  from 
various  parts  of  the  islands  until  the  hour  appointed  for  the  funeraL 

"  At  two  o'clock  p.m.  I  offered  a  short  prayer  in  English  before  leaving 
the  house,  as  Miss  Piatt  was  unable  to  attend  the  funeral.    The  procession 
then  formed,  and  proceeded  to  the  chapel  in  the  following  order : — 
First. — Tamatoa  the  King,  Mrs.  Vivian  and  myself,  followed  by  Pomare  tlie 

Prince  Consort  of  Tahiti,  his  son,  the  governors,  and  the  JHa  mama. 
Second. — ^The  corpse,  carried  by  twelve  strong  men;   the  deacons  of  the 

churches  at  Baiatea  and  Tahaa  being  the  paU-bearers. 
Third. — The  chief  mourners — the  three  sons  of  the  departed,  with  their  wives 

and  other  branches  of  their  family. 
Fourth. — The  foreign  residents — Messrs.  Lassetter,  Graves,  Lobb,  Holnum, 

Lemear,  Giffor,  and  Silver. 
Fifth. — ^The  students  from  the  Institution  at  Tahaa  and  their  wives. 
Sixth. — ^The  members  of  the  church,  friends,  and  the  inhabitants  generally. 

with  a  large  number  of  children  from  our  school. 
"  Arrived  at  the  chapel,  it  was  speedily  filled  in  every  part  with  a  wdl- 
dressed  and  respectable  congregation.    After  the  conclusion  of  the  usual 


FOB  SEPTEMBEB^    1865.  263 

service,  which  was  conducted  in  the  native  language,  the  procession  re-formed 
and  proceeded  to  the  burial-ground,  where  the  latter  portion  of  the  service 
was  performed.  Many  afterwards  stepped  forward  to  give  a  last  look  upon 
all  that  remained  of  our  dear  and  venerable  brother.  Many  tears  were  shed ; 
ajid  even  the  thoughtless  felt  it  to  be  a  solemn  occasion. 

"  A  funeral  sermon  on  the  death  of  our  aged  brother  is  to  be  preached  on 
Sunday  morning  next ;  and  the  King  has  issued  an  order  that  there  be  a 
general  mourning  throughout  the  islands. 

**  Our  late  brother  was  seventy-six  years  of  age  the  15th  of  last  month, 
and  he  leaves  three  sons  and  one  daughter  to  lament  his  loss.  His  aged 
sister  remains  with  us,  and  has  reached  her  seventy-third  year  to-day. 

"  They  all  join  with  us  in  kind  Christian  regards  to  yourself  and  the 
other  Directors.

INDIA  AND    BEBBIOE. 

On  Thursday,  Aug.  17th,  Mr.  Joseph  Jeeemiah  Cooper  and  Mr.  Joseph 
Aethtjb  Lambert,  students  of  the  London  Missionary  Society,  were  ordained 
as  missionaries  at  London  Road  Chapel,  Chelmsford,  having  both  been 
members  of  the  church  assembling  there.  The  service  was  commenced  with 
reading  and  prayer  by  the  Rev.  T.  Hooke,  minister  of  Baddow  Lane  Chapel. 
The  Rev.  J.  Bowrey,  formerly  a  missionary  in  Berbice,  described  Mr.  Cooper's 
field  of  labour  in  that  colony ;  and  the  Rev.  J.  H.  Budden,  from  Benares,  to 
^hich  Mr.  Lambert  is  appointed,  also  described  missionary  operations  in 
that  great  city.  The  Rev.  Dr.  Tidman,  Foreign  Secretary  of  the  Society, 
proposed  the  usual  questions  to  the  candidates  in  succession,  which  were 
answered  both  by  Mr.  Cooper  and  Mr.  Lambert  in  a  very  interesting  and 
satisfactory  manner.  The  ordination  prayer  was  presented  by  the  Rev. 
George  Wilkinson,  pastor  of  the  church ;  and  the  charge  to  the  missionary 
-was  delivered  by  the  Rev.  S.  Ransom,  Classical  Professor  of  the  Hackney 
College,  who  concluded  the  service  with  the  benediction.  The  congregation, 
-which  was  very  numerous,  was  deeply  interested  in  the  solemn  services  of  the 
evening. 


264  MISSIONARY  MAGAZIXB 

BEBBICE. 

The  interesting  and  solemn  service  of  ordaining  Mr.  James  "Wbight 
MuiTEO  to  the  sacred  duties  of  the  ministry  took  place  in  the  Mission  Chapel* 
New  Amsterdam,  Berbice,  on  Wednesday,  March  29th,  in  the  presence  of  a  large 
and  highly  respectable  assembly.  The  proceedings  were  opened  by  the  Rev. 
J.  N.  Levi,  who,  after  a  hymn  had  been  sung,  read  a  very  appropriate  portion 
of  Scripture  (2  Timothy,  xi.).  The  Rev.  J.  Roome,  having  read  a  few  Tersee  of 
Scripture,  then  engaged  in  prayer.  The  Rev.  A.  W.  Johnson  gave  a  short 
address,  in  which  he  showed  the  all-important  nature  and  responsibility  of  a 
minister's  duties,  the  solemnity  of  his  calling,  and  the  Divine  origin  and  sacred 
nature  of  his  commission  and  appointment.  The  Rev.  J.  Foreman  put  the 
usual  questions  to  Mr.  Munro,  who  answered  them  with  great  cleai-ne^  and 
at  considerable  length.  The  Rev.  G.  Pettigrew  offered  up  a  very  earnest 
and  appropriate  ordination  prayer.  A  hymn  was  then  sung,  after  which 
the  Rev.  Robert  Ricards,  under  whom  Mr.  Munro  had  been  trained  for  his 
sacred  calling  for  a  space  of  nearly  three  years,  delivered  the  charge  to  the 
newly  ordained  minister,  taking  for  his  text  1  Timothy,  iv.  16 — "  Take  heed 
unto  thyself,  and  unto  the  doctrine ;  continue  in  them :  for  in  doing  this 
thou  shalt  both  save  thyself,  and  them  that  hear  thee." 

The  proceedings  lasted  nearly  three  hours,  and  were  Hstened  to  with  the 
greatest  attention  by  those  present.

CHRONICLE. 


MADAGASCAR. 

Wb  are  able  to  announce  the  gratifying  intelligence  that  the  treaty  batween 
the  Gbvemment  of  Madagascar  and  that  of  Great  Britain  has  at  length  been 
completed  and  ratified ;  and  in  this  important  fact  we  have  the  best  guarantee 
for  the  maintenance  of  fi'eedom  and  peace  in  Madagascar,  "  The  treaty- 
arrived,"  writes  the  Rev.  William  Ellis,  "  on  the  18th  June  ;  and  as  soon 
as  the  Consul  had  communicated  it  to  the  Government  I  waited  upon  him 
to  ascertain  its  provisions  respecting  the  native  Christians  and  the  churches." 
Bespecting  the  former  Mr.  Ellis  has  not  given  us  particulars ;  but  he  observes, 
*'  It  contained  more  in  favour  of  the  Christians  than  I  expected ;"  and  from 
previous  information  we  are  assured  that  Earl  Russell  had  introduced 
explicit  provisions,  securing  civil  and  religious  freedom  both  to  the  Malagasy 
Christians  and  the  missionaries.  In  reference  to  the  sites  for  the  intended 
churches,  our  Mend  had  to  overcome  a  serious  difficulty.  It  is  unversally 
known  that  the  sovereign  of  Madagascar  has  from  time  immemorial  been 
recognised  as  lord  of  the  soil ;  that  is,  as  proprietor  or  freeholder  of  the 
entire  island ;  and  although  this  must  appear  to  an  Englishman  a  dangerous 
right  to  the  actual  occupiers  of  lands  and  buildings,  yet  it  is,  in  point  of 
fact,  nominal  rather  than  real,  and  would  only  be  exercised  upon  extreme 
occasions  involving  the  serious  violation  of  the  laws  and  usages  of  the  country. 
On  the  part  of  the  sovereign  it  involves  great  responsibilities,  inasmuch  as 
he  is  not  permitted  in  any  case  to  relinquish  his  right,  or  to  alienate  any 
portion  of  the  soil  of  Madagascar.  It  will  be  remembered  that  the  late 
King  Eadaua  II.,  by  widely  departing  from  this  well-known  law  and  usage, 
and  transferring  a  large  tract  of  country  to  Monf .  Lambert,  a  French  mor- 
ehant,  incurred  the  strong  displeasure  of  the  leading  men,  both  of  the  Govern- 
ment and  the  country,  and  that,  in  fact,  it  was  one  of  the  chief  reasons  which  led 
to  his  downfall  and  assassination ;  the  people  complaining  that  h?  had  given  his 
country  to  foreigners,  which  he  had  no  light  to  do.  "When  fcbc  Mem  oriel 
Churches  were  first  projected  by  our  friend  Mr.  Ellis,  Radama  was  sovereign, 
VOL.  XXIX. — 1865.  N 


278  MISSIONARY  MAGAZINE 

and  he  made  no  hesitation  in  giving  the  most  positive  assurance  that  the 
sites  should  be  made  over  absolutely  and  in  perpetuity  to  the  representatives 
of  the  London  Missionary  Society.  But  the  present  Queen,  on  her  accessioQ 
to  the  government,  was  placed  under  absolute  obligation  to  laaintaiii  the 
ancient  law  and  usage  of  sovereign  right  in  the  soil,  and  consequently  the 
grant  to  3f .  Lambert  was  annulled,  which  has  been  the  occasion  of  the  nfm- 
execution  of  the  treaty  with  France,  the  Gt>vemment  of  Paris  claiming  a 
large  compensation  from  the  Government  of  Madagascar  for  the  non-folfilment 
of  the  concession.  Our  venerable  friend  Mr.  Ellis  was  therefore  deeply 
concerned,  before  the  erection  of  the  second  Memorial  Church  was  commenced, 
to  have  the  best  possible  guarantee  for  the  permanent  security  of  the  buildings; 
and  the  treaty  with  Great  Britain  just  concluded,  while  affirming  the  pro- 
prietorship of  the  soil  by  the  sovereign,  expressly  states,  in  a  supplementary 
article,  that  "  the  churches  to  be  built  by  the  missionaries  of  the  London 
Missionary  Society  at  Fabavohitra,  and  Axbatonakanoa,  and  Ampajcasi- 
NAVA,  and  Ahbohipotsy,  and  Fiaduna  shall  be  appropiiated  by  the  aoTereigD 
of  Madagascar  for  the  teaching  and  worship  of  its  missionaries,  and  the 
Malagasy  Christians  who  unite  with  them  in  the  same  worship,  and  to  their 
successors  for  ever.  And  further,  that  the  sovereign  shall  not  pennit  tiiflm 
to  be  used  by  any  persons  not  uniting  with  the  worship  of  those  who  built 
the  said  churches." 

It  will  be  obvious  that,  although  this  arrangement  is  not  in  aoeoidance 
with  English  law  and  practice,  it  was  the  best  and  only  guarantee  which  tiie 
case  admitted  for  the  permanent  occupatidli  of  the  intended  churches.  And 
it  may  be  added  that,  in  point  of  fact,  the  sovereign  of  Madagascar  never 
does  exercise  this  assumed  right,  tmless  as  a  punishment  for  political  oficpipeg, 
which  in  more  civilized  countries  would  involve  a  forfeiture  of  life  or 
territorial  rights. 

We  are  expecting  the  arrival  of  our  friend  Mr.  Ellis  in  the  course  of  the 
present  month,  and  we  are  sure  that  he  will  be  received  by  the  Directcws  aad 
members  of  the  Society  with  that  respect,  affection,  and  gratitude  to  whakii 
his  faithful  and  valuable  services  give  him  so  just  a  daina. 

In  conclusion,  we  have  not  received  the  most  distant  intimatiQa  of  «iy 
occurrence  in  Madagascar  that  threatens  the  security  of  the  GoTemnieiit  <s 
the  peace  and  prosperity  of  the  Mission ;  while,  on  the  other  hand,  as  already 
intimated,  the  completion  of  the  treaty,  viewed  in  connection  with  the  pro- 
gress and  prosperity  of  the  Mission,  renders  our  friture  prospects  more  grati-

CHINA. 

Semi-annual  beport  of  the  amoy  mission. 

The  continued  increase  of  this  prosperous  station  presents  a  demand  for 
gratitude  and  perseverance.  Barely,  if  ^ever,  have  we  received  intelligence 
from  Amoy  which  did  not  supply  much  encouragement.  The  present  report, 
which  extends  only  to  six  months,  informs  us  that  during  that  short  period 
thirty-three  memhers  have  been  added  to  the  native  churches ;  making  a  total, 
in  the  city  and  the  surrounding  stations,  of  413  Chinese  Christians.  It  is 
additionally  gratifying,  also,  that  in  connection  with  the  English  Presbyterian 
Mission  and  that  supported  by  the  Reformed  Dutch  Church  of  America  the 
total  numbers  are  about  the  same ;  so  that  in  connection  with  the  Amoy 
Mission  there  are  upwards  of  800  native  Christians  in  church-fellowship. 
But  our  devoted  Brethr^i  the  Messrs.  Stsonach  greatly  need  help,  and  we 
trust  that,  within  a  few  monthB»  the  Rev.  John  Mac0Owax  will  return 
to  Amoy  as  their  feUow-labourer.  Our  countrymen  are  ako  greatly 
aided  by  several  valuable  native  agents;  although,  as  the  present  report 
states,  it  is  feared  that  one  of  their  number  has  fallen  into  the  hands  of  the 
Taiping  insurgents,  now  happily  expelled  from  the  city  of  Chiang-chiu. 

"  Amoy,  July  5th,  1865. 
"  Deab  Bbotheb, — '  By  the  good  hand  of  our  God  upon  us,'  we  continue 
to  enjoy  excellent  health,  and  to  receive  much  encouragement  in  our  work. 

EXPULBIOF  OF  BEBEL8  FROM  CHIAHO-CHnX. 

"  We  are  happy  to  be  able  to  state  that  the  anticipations  we  expressed  in 
our  January  letter  as  to  the  ultimate  success  of  the  Imperialists,  in  the 
impending  struggle  ^ith  the  Taipings  in  this  neighbourhood,  have  been 
completely  verified.  On  the  17th  May  last  we  had  the  satiisfaction  of  hearing 
that  the  rebels  had  hurriedly  evacuated  the  city  a  day  or  two  before.  They 
have  never  attempted  to  rally  since,  and  have  retired  to  a  considerable 
distance  in  the  interior.  The  once  flourishing  city  of  Chiang-chiu  is  now  a 
picture  of  desolation.  Most  of  the  houses  have  been  burnt  or  otherwise 
destroyed ;  and  the  street  in  which  our  chapel  is  situated  is  a  complete  ruin. 
The  inhabitants  are  beginning  to  return  and  attempt  the  reconstruction  of 
their  city.  But  of  course  that  will  be  a  work  of  time ;  and  it  may  be  long 
ere  we  again  obtain  a  chapel,  or  have  any  reasonable  ground  for  expecting  a 
congregation.  Some  of  our  converts  have  escaped,  but  the  native  preacher 
Teng-hong  has  never  been  heard  of.  His  afflicted  wife  continues  to  hope 
against  hope.  The  general  impression  is  that  he  was  murdered  soon  after 
the  city  was  taken.  If  this  be  the  case,  the  Society  has  lost  in  him  a  valuable 
labourer,  and  the  converts  an  instructor  who  was  well  fitted  to  sustaLn  the 
relation  of  pastor,  and  who  did  fulfil  many  pastoral  duties  to  the  little  flock 
which  he  was  chiefly  instrumental  in  collecting.

power  for  the  reUeving  of  the  suffermgs  of  Buch  of  the  refugees  as  hare 
reached  Amoy,  and  have  thus  shown  the  genuine  spirit  of  the  GospeL 

"  Some  of  tiiose  who  had  heard  Divine  truth  at  the  Chiang-chiu  Chapd 
have  been,  after  due  examination  and  instruction,  received  into  the  church 
here. 

"  We  trust  that  God  will  overrule  for  good  the  whole  of  this  series  of 
calamities,  demonstrating,  as  it  does  in  the  plainest  way,  that  the  idols  are 
wholly  unable  to  save  even  themselves  and  their  temples  from  destruction. 

"During  the  past  half-year  twenty-one  converts — ten  men  and  eleven 
women — ^have  been  baptized  and  received  into  church-feUowship  at  Amoy; 
besides  other  twelve  adults  —  ten  men  and  two  women  —  who  hare  been 
baptized  at  our  country  stations ;  making,  in  all,  thirty-three. 

NBW  CONYSBTS. 

"  Of  our  converts  at  Amoy  we  may  mention  particularly  two  or  three  cases. 

"One  man,  Tiu-khai-yiu,  aged  forty-six,  formerly  made  his  living  by 
keeping  a  shop  for  the  sale  of  the  so-called  gilt  paper  used  by  the  Chinese  in 
their  idolatrous  services.  Coming  into  Kwan-a-lai  Chapel,  he  heard  doctrine 
wholly  opposed  to  his  every-day  pursuits,  and  he  afterwards  regularly 
attended  our  preaching.  Gradually  he  was  enabled,  through  grace,  to  under- 
stand and  bdieve  the  Gospel,  and  felt  constrained  to  come  forward  and 
avow  his  faith.  But  he  could  not  be  received  while  he  made  his  living  by 
selling  an  article  employed  in  idolatry.  At  length,  after  encountering  much 
opposition  from  his  relatives,  at  considerable  sacrifice  he  got  rid  of  that 
business  entirely,  and  now  feels  sweet  contentment  in  fully  following  the 
Lord. 

"  Another  convert,  Ung-hin-so,  aged  thirty -nine  years,  is  the  wife  of  TJng- 
hin,  of  whom  we  wrote  an  account  on  the  7th  of  July  last  year,  as  having,  at 
the  front  of  Chioh-lo  Chapel,  publicly  burned  the  implements  by  which  he 
had  made  his  living  as  a  maker  of  gambling-cards.  His  wife  was  then 
bitterly  opposed  to  Christianity,  and  did  all  in  her  power  to  prevent  her 
-husband  from  joining  the  church.  But  all  is  changed  now.  She  has,  at 
length,  given  her  heart  to  the  Saviour,  and  now  she  obeys  and  loves  the 
Divine  truths  which  she  had  long  hated. 

"  Another  of  our  converts  recently  received,  TJng-chu-lan,  is  a  man  fifty- 
seven  years  of  age.  He  has  been  long  bent  on  following  the  Saviour;  but  his 
wife  hates  C*hristianity.  She  is  a  woman  of  indomitable  will,  while  he  is  a 
gentle-spirited  man ;  so  he  has  often  allowed  himself  to  be  dragged  away 
from  the  chapel  to  which  he  went  to  hear  the  Grospel.  At  length,  how- 
ever, he  was  strengthened  to  come  forward  boldly,  and  avow  his  falUi  in 
Christ,  and  his  willing  obedience  to  His  commands. 

CHURCH  DISCIPLINE  BOTH  WITH  PENITENTS  AND  BACKSLIDERS. 

"Four  of  our  church-members,  who  had  been,  for  inconsistent  OGndnct, 
suspended  from  the  communion,  on  giving  satisfactory  evidence  of  repentance, 
have  been  again  received  into  fall  fellowship ;  but  we  have  been  compelled  to 
excommunicate  five  men,  who  once  'did  run  well,'  but  who  have  'faU^i  away.'

and,  though  often  warned,  still  continne  to  absent  themselves  from  all  onr 
meetings  for  Divine  worship. 

DEATH  OF  NATIVE   CHRISTIANS. 

"  Since  we  last  wrote,  two  of  the  female  members  of  the  Church  have 
'  fiillen  asleep  in  Jesus.' 

"  On  March  17th  died  Tan-twa-ko,  the  aged  aunt  of  one  of  our  preachers, 
Tan-tai,  and  his  brother.  She  had  reached  the  advanced  age  of  eightj-five. 
More  than  eleven  years  ago  she  was  received  by  baptism  into  the  fellowship 
of  the  church ;  and  she  continued  to  live  afterwards  as  a  sincere  believer  in 
Christ.  When,  still  very  young,  her  two  nephews  became  orphans,  she 
became,  and  continued  to  be,  like  a  tender  and  judicious  mother  to  them ; 
and  they  were  dutifuUy  attentive  to  her  to  the  end  of  her  days. 

"  On  June  9th  our  preacher  K*o-ko's  mother,  Chap-chim,  departed  this  life, 
aged  sixty-three.  She  was  also  baptized  at  the  same  time  with  Tan-twa-ko, 
and  has  always  maintained  a  truly  consistent  character  as  a  disciple  of  Christ. 
Twice  she  has  been  to  England,  and  once  to  America,  as  nurse  to  childi'en 
going  home  to  the  land  of  their  parents.  Ever3rwhere  she  was  noted  and 
admired  for  her  faithful  attention  to  her  duties,  and  for  her  devotion  to  God. 
At  last  she  peacefully  '  fell  asleep,'  leaving  a  clear  testimony  to  the  power  of 
the  Grospel  to  sustain  her  while  she  felt  her  heart  and  her  flesh  fail. 
Hepeatedly  she  expressed  her  peaceful  trust  in  the  Saviour,  and  her  joyfixl 
assurance  that  He  was  about  to  '  receive  her  unto  Himself.' 

JOYFUL  RETROSPECT. 

"  With  grateful  joy  we  look  back  on  the  cases  of  many  of  both  sexes  who, 
having  been  called,  through  grace,  into  the  fellowship  of  the  Gospel,  and 
having  been  trained  in  communion  with  the  churches  under  our  care  to 
"become  '  meet  to  be  partakers  of  the  inheritance  of  the  saints  in  light,'  have 
already  been  called  to  join  the  feUowehip  of  the  redeemed  in  glory,  for  ever 
to  shine  as  jewels  in  our  Redeemer's  crown, '  to  the  praise  of  the  glory  of  his 
grace.' 

LABOURS  AMONG  THE   CHINESE  WOSIEN. 

"  We  feel  it  gratifying  to  see  our  meetings  for  females  so  largely  attended, 
and  that  so  lively  an  interest  is  evidently  felt  by  them  in  the  truths  of  the 
Gospel.  Many  of  them  ai*e  making  good  progress  in  the  knowledge  of  Christ ; 
nvhile  the  deep  feeling  and  the  Scriptural  thoughts  of  those  who  are  called  to 
lead  in  prayer  at  these  meetings  show  a  rcmaikable  maturity  of  Christian 
life. 

**  Weekly  at  three  of  these  meetings — along  with  the  deaconesses — we 
catechise  and  instruct  the  females  who  come  forward  as  applicants  for  baptism. 
Time  after  time  the  applicants  come — occasionally  as  many  as  ten  together — 
desiring  to  be  received  into  the  church ;  and  when  some  are  baptized,  theii* 
places  are  soon  taken  by  others.

there  have  been  baptized  at  this  station  thirty-four  co^ver^.    Of  these,  two

hare  died,  and  four  are  under  snspension  from  comnmnion  for  irregnlaritj  of 
attendance.  Seren  adults  have  been  baptized  during  this  half-year.  Then 
are  also  fifty  others  who  are  regular  in  attendance,  and  who  exhibit  a  pleasing 
amount  of  knowledge  of  Divine  truth.

their  ranks  as  clear  evidence  as  possible  of  conyersion  to  Qod;  and  Ism 
guided  entirely  by  their  views  in  receiving  members  into  the  church. 

"  '  I  have  visited  this  station  thrice  during  Hie  half-year,  and  always  fed 
exceedingly  gratified  by  the  attention  and  demeanour  of  those  to  whom  I  have

''  *  An-bin  I  have  visited  twice.  In  March  I  preached,  for  the  first  time,  in 
the  commodious  little  chapel,  which  had  been  recently  erected  at  a  very  small 
expense.  In  June  I  baptized  two  persons,  and  examined  ftwe  other  appbeantB, 
who  seemed  well  acquainted  with  the  truths  of  the  Gospel.

INDIA. 

TRIPATORE. 

Fboh  the  Rev.  Maubice  Phillips,  lately  appointed  to  this  new  Mission  sta- 
tion in  the  south  of  India,  we  have  received  the  following  very  interesting  and 
satisflEu^tory  naitative  of  a  Hindoo  convert  belonging  to  the  seot  who  are  wm^ 
shippers  of  the  god  Siva.  This  youth  appears  to  have  been  one  of  those  deluded 
and  disappointed  natives  who  had  devoted  himself  to  a  life  of  asceticism,  in  the 


FOB  OCTOBEBy    1865.  283 

vain  hope  that  he  would  thereby  secure  the  pardon  of  his  sins  and  peace  with 
God.  But  his  severe  self-denial  and  devotion  to  the  worship  of  his  god  left 
Mm  with  an  aching  heart,  and  in  a  state  of  painM  disappointment  and 
anxiety.  A  small  volume  was  put  into  his  hands  which  made  known  to  him 
the  truth  of  thef  Gospel  and  led  him  to  become  a  devout  student  of  the  word 
of  God ;  and,  guided  by  the  Divine  counsels,  he  was  led  to  the  feet  of  Jesus, 
became  one  of  His  avowed  subjects,  and  devoted  the  remainder  of  his  life  to 
the  spread  of  the  Gospel.  We  trust  that  the  hopes  and  expectations  of  our 
missionaay  brother  may  be  faUj  realized  in  this  youthful  convert,  and  that 
he  may  be  made  the  instrument  of  God  in  leading  many  of  his  oountrymen 
from  the  practice  of  their  abominable  idolatries  to  the  love  of  Christ  and 
consecration  to  His  service. 

"  Tripatore,  June  16th,  1865. 

"  Deajl  Bbothsb, — It  was  my  privilege  on  the  first  Sunday  in  May  to 
baptize  a  young  ascetic  of  the  Yellala  caste.  His  history  is  peculiarly 
interesting,  as  it  affords  a  fresh  proof  of  the  power  of  the  Gospel,  and  its 
adaptation  to  the  wants  of  human  nature.  It  cannot  be  told  more  strikingly 
than  by  himself,  in  a  brief  statement  made  in  the  Tafnil  language  to  the 
church,  prerious  to  his  receiving  baptism;  a  translation  of  which  is  the 
following  I — 

"  '  My  father,  Soomasoondrum  Pillay,  a  Siva  Yellalen  by  caste,  was  a 
native  of  Kooray  Nelloor,  in  the  Zillah  of  Tinnevelly,  in  which  place  I  was 
also  bom.  My  name  is  Seethambrum.  I  belonged  to  the  religious  sect 
called  Sivarites  (worshippers  of  the  god  Siva),  and  the  illustrious  Theroong« 
anasumbantha  Moothoo  was  my  religious  instructor. 

**  *  I  was  sent  to  school  at  my  native  village  in  the  fifth  year  of  my  age, 
where  I  remained  till  about  the  eleventh;  then  I  left  the  school,  and  received 
further  instruction  in  arithmetic  and  other  things  from  the  "  kanicopillay '' 
[accountant]  of  the  village.  After  making  sufficient  progress  in  my  studies, 
I  became  his  assistant,  and  thus  spent  three  years.  Afterwards  I  devoted 
myself  diligently  to  search  the  Yedas  [Hindoo  Bible]  and  other  books  of  my 
former  religion,  which  originated  in  me  a  desire  to  visit  the  different  places 
flacred  to  the  worship  of  Siva.  Accordingly  I  went  on  pilgrimage  to  many 
holy  places  in  the  Ohola  kingdom.  This  gave  me  a  kind  of  empty  pleasure, 
but  no  satisfaction  to  the  mind,  nor  hope  of  salvation.  Being  thus  sorely 
disappointed,  and  filled  with  trouble  and  anxiety,  it  appeared  to  me  that 
ascetic  life  was  the  only  means  of  obtaining  the  desired  effect.  Seekiog  to 
lead  such  a  life,  I  set  aside  my  usual  clothes  and  assumed  the  yeUow-coloured, 
or  ascetic  drees,  visited  Madura,  reached  the  Theroonganasumbantha's 
monastery,  and  became  one  of  its  iumates.  Thus  passed  five  years  more  of 
my  life,  when  a  tract  called  "  The  Blind  Way"  was  providentially  placed  in 
my  hands.  As  I  was  perusing  it  I  began  to  entertain  peculiar  doubts 
respecting  the  purity  of  the  Siva  and  Yishnoo  religions.  These  doubts  increased, 
and  resulted  in  a  strong  desire  to  know  the  doctrines  of  Christianity.  With 
this  intention  I  went  to  Madras,  where  I  met  catechist  Solomon,  of  the 
London  Mission,  who  introduced  me  to  the  Eev.  J.  ^rgi^^^^ofe^lt^s^^^^^ 


284  MISSIONABT  MAGAZINE 

mj  mind  to  him,  aad  stayed  in  the  Mission-honse  a  few  dajs,  nmlriTig 
inquiries  respecting  the  Christian  religion,  and  oonyeraing  with  nadTe 
Christians  on  the  plan  of  salvation.  I  soon  fonnd  in  Christiaiiity  the 
satisfaction  I  had  so  long  sought  for  in  vain,  and  was  fhlly  persuaded  it  was 
the  only  true  religion ;  that  Christ,  the  all- wise  Comforter,  is  ihe  only  true 
Saviour ;  and  that  the  propitiation  which  He  has  made  for  sinners  alone  is 
efficient  to  cure  the  disease  of  the  soul,  and  produce  real  happiness.  With 
this  conviction  I  left  Madras  and  came  to  Yaniembady,  where  I  met  catechist 
Appaswamy,  who  took  me  into  his  house  and  further  instructed  and 
strengthened  me  in  the  fietith.  He  introduced  me  to  the  Rev.  M.  Phillips,  of 
Tripatore,  who,  after  knowing  the  desire  of  my  heart  and  giving  me  many 
exhortations,  has  promised  to  administer  the  ordinance  of  baptism  to  me. 

"  *  Finally,  I  beseech  you  who  are  servants  of  the  Lord  Jesus  to  pray  for 
me  that  I  also  may  sincerely  serve  Him.' 

"  Seethambrum  is  of  a  respectable  Soodra  caste,  young  and  intelligent. 
He  has  read  most  of  the  Hindoo  sacred  books,  and  is  thoroughly  acquainted 
with  all  the  mysteries  of  the  most  sacred  religious  sects  among  the  people. 
This,  and  the  fact  that  he  has  been  an  ascetic,  is  sufficient  to  command  the 
respect  of  all  classes.  It  is  a  matter  for  much  thankfulness,  therefore,  tliat 
one  who  held  a  position  so  high  and  sacred  among  the  Hindoos  has  been 
brought  to  embrace  Chi-istianity.  The  mysterious  manner  also  in  which  he 
was  brought  to  inquire  into  the  doctrines  of  the  Gk)spel  is  no  less  a  matter 
for  gratitude,  for  it  so  strikingly  illustrates  the  power  of  the  Gospel  to 
satisfy  the  cravings  of  a  soul  sincerely  seeking  rest  and  salvation.  T^ub 
young  man  was  seriously  and  religiously  inclined  from  his  youth.  Hence  at 
a  very  early  age  he  began  to  search  the  Yedas  and  other  religious  books; 
and,  as  most  of  them  speak  so  highly  of  the  meritorious  effect  of  pilgrimages 
to  different  sacred  places,  he  was  inflamed  with  the  desire  to  pay  homage  to 
the  shrine  of  Siva  in  the  capacity  of  a  pilgrim.  He  set  out,  visited  the  most 
sacred  places  in  the  south,  but  found  no  happiness.  There  was  then  only  one 
course  open  to  him:  he  must  become  an  ascetic,  leave  his  family  and 
relatives,  live  in  celibacy,  and  subsist  on  the  alms  of  the  pious.  He 
wandered  from  one  holy  place  to  the  other,  wore  the  yellow  dress  as  a  sign 
to  all  that  he  had  renounced  the  world,  mortified  the  flesh,  and  was  spending 
his  days  in  the  contemplation  of  Siva.  He  went  to  the  monastery,  and  asso- 
ciated  with  men  of  kindred  devotion  to  Siva  for  five  years.  What  waa  tJie 
result?  Disappointment  and  anxiety!  A  little  book  was  providentially 
given  him,  which  exposes  the  errors  of  Hindooism,  and  makes  known  the  truth 
of  the  Gospel.  As  he  perused  it  he  was  filled  with  joy.  He  found  in  it  more 
satisfaction  than  in  all  the  ceremonies  and  sacred  places  of  Siva  and  Yishnoo. 
Still  it  did  not  fill  the  vacuum  in  his  soul.  He  must  know  more  of 
Christianity,  must  read  the  Bible,  and  derive  his  knowledge  from  the 
foimtain-head.  No  sooner  had  he  done  this  than  he  was  at  rest:  he  felt 
that  the  Gospel  contained  the  great  pearl  which  he  had  been  seeking  in  vain 
among  the  idols  and  temples  of  India.  He  immediately  cast  away  his  aaoedc 
clothes,  sat  at  the  feet  of  Jesus,  and  sought  entrance  to  His  fold  by  bs^tism,. 
being  detennined  to  devote  the  remainder  of  his  life  to  make  known  the 
Gospel  to  his  fellow-men.     Here,  then,  is  a  change  of  opinion  and  feeling

which  oaimot  be  acoonnted  for  except  hj  the  Divine  power  and  adaptation  of 
Christianity  to  the  necessities  of  the  soul.  Educationalists  and  moralists 
can  do  much  towards  civilizing  and  elevating  a  nation,  hnt  thej  cannot 
produce  such  a  change  as  this.  Philanthropists  can  alleviate  bodily  sufferings,

the  soul  from  the  stain  of  sin,  and  satisfy  its  ci-avings  after  righteousness  and 
holiness.  The  €k>8pel  alone  can  do  this.  Oh  that  the  heathen  would  come 
to  it  for  rest !

SOUTH  AFRICA. 

MISSION  TO  THE  MATEBELE. 

Cue  intelligence  from  this  remote  district,  which  is  800  miles  north  of  the 
Xuruman,  is  infrequent  and  irregular ;  but  we  are  gratified  to  find  that  every 
additional  report  shows  us  that  increasing  light  is  shining  on  that  dark  land, 
and  that  there  is  ground  to  hope  that  it  will  shine  more  and  more  to  the 
perfect  day.  The  ignorant  and  degraded  natives  are  evidently  brought  to 
understand  somewhat  of  the  nature  and  design  of  the  Gospel ;  and  were  it 
not  for  the  restraints  imposed  on  them  by  their  despotic  and  aged  chief,  they 
would  be  found  in  greater  numbers  attending  on  the  kind  and  Christian 
instructions  of  our  missionaries.  Small — very  small— as  the  actual  fruits  of 
the  Mission  have  hitherto  been,  yet  we  caonot  entertain  a  doubt  that  the  good 
seed  which  has  been  widely  scattered  will  hereafter,  through  the  gracious 
power  of  the  Holy  Spirit,  yield  a  joyous  harvest.  We  are  thankfrd  that  our 
brethren  give  no  indication  of  weariness  in  their  work,  but,  on  the  contrary,, 
they  continue  **  steadfast  and  immovable,  always  aboimding  in  the  work  of 
the  Lord."     Nor  can  they  labour  in  vain. 

"  Inyati,  March  1st,  1865. 
"My  dbar  Brother,— We  left  Kuruman  on  the  6th  of  October,  and, 
after  a  prosperous  journey  of  nearly  800  miles,  we  arrived  at  this  place  on 
the  17th  of  December.  We  were  glad  to  find  our  dear  friends  at  the  Bamang- 
wato  in  good  health,  and  prospering  in  their  Mission.  Sekomi,  the  chief  of 
that  place,  wishing  to  be  kind  to  a  stranger,  or  from  some  other  motive, 
pressed  upon  me  to  remain  with  him. 

OTTR  ARRIVAL  AT  THE  MATEBELE. 

'*  Being  obliged,  in  order  to  outspan  at  the  water,  to  push  on  by  moonlight, 
we  passed  the  first  Merkalaka  village  about  two  or  t^.^^^p|^^^  Next  mom-

ing,  before  we  had  inspfuined,  a  number  of  well-armed  Boldiers  were  smd 
emerging  from  the  bnshes,  yery  mnch  excited,  and  panting  for  breath.  Die 
next  moment  they  surrotmded  our  waggons ;  and  what  was  Hieir  joy  to  aee  thit 
it  was  a  friend,  and  not  a  foe,  who  had  passed  them  while  they  were  fiut 
asleep,  the  agreeable  change  which  soon  appeared  in  each  one's  eonntenanee 
sufficiently  indicated.  They  said  that,  when  the  waggon  tarail  waa  discovered, 
they  thought  the  Boers  had'  gone  by  in  the  night  to  attack  the  King,  and 
that  they,  seeing  they  had  not  gone  before  them  to  give  the  alarm,  would  all 
be  killed.  Iffunyama,  the  chidT  man,  immediately  despatched  men  to  the 
King  to  inform  him  of  our  arrival ;  and,  while  we  were  two  days'  jonmey 
from  the  royal  kraal,  we  were  met  by  two  men,  whom  Moselekatse  had  sent 
to  invite  us  to  call  to  see  him,  on  our  way  to  Inyati.  We  found  him  very 
kind ;  but  he  had  become  much  more  feeble  during  the  last  fifteen  months. 
He  was  very  anxious  that  we  should  remain  with  him  for  some  time ;  but, 
having  been  told  that  we  were  desirous  of  seeing  our  friends  at  Inyati,  and  of 
taking  to  them  those  articles  which  we  had  in  our  waggons,  he  allowed  us  to 
proceed,  after  a  day  and  two  nights'  visit.  To  meet  with  our  brethren  and 
sisters,  with  their  dear  children,  onco  more,  and  to  find  them  in  good  health 
and  prospering,  was  very  delightful,  and  called  for  our  gratitude  to  the 
Father  of  mercies  for  his  continued  care  of  them. 

A    SECOND    VISIT   TO   THE    KING. 

''  On  parting  with  the  King,  we  had  to  promise  another  early  and  a  longer 
visit.  Having  in  the  interval  been  sent  for  three  times,  and  wishing  to  do  all 
we  could  to  avoid  giving  offence,  we  returned  as  soon  as  possible,  and  remained 
with  him  six  days.  He  was  most  kind  to  us,  and  so  were  all  his  wivea  and 
chief  men  present.  He  gave  my  wife  the  honour  of  making  him  coffee  twice 
a  day,  and  in  return  gave  her  two  fat  sheep  and  a  cow  and  calf.  Of  course 
he  did  not  forget  to  beg  much.  Being  there  on  the  Lord's  day,  I  made  known 
to  him  my  desire  to  speak  to  the  people  on  that  day.  He  said  **  he  would  be 
glad  to  see  with  his  own  eyes."  About  9  a.m.,  therefore,  he  made  his  appear- 
ance, riding  in  his  waggon,  which  was  pulled  by  150  or  200  soldiers.  The 
waggon  having  been  drawn  under  a  tree,  and  nearly  alongside  my  waggon, 
the  multitude  who  had  come  together  addressed  their  King  in  terms  of  praise 
and  honour;  after  which  they  seated  th^nselves  upon  the  green  graas. 
During  the  service,  with  the  exception  of  once,  when  the  chief  sneesed,  they 
uttered  some  words  of  praise  to  him,  they  were  all  very  attentive.  No  former 
visit  of  mine  to  the  chief  of  the  Matebele  has  been  so  satisfactory  as  the  pre- 
sent, for  which  fact  I  ardently  long  for  a  heart  to  bless  the  Lord:  Oh  that  He 
who  is  able  to  save  to  the  uttermost  would  change  the  heart  of  the  wonderful 
but  cruel  old  heathen,  and  thereby  cause  him  to  use  his  almost  resistless 
power  and  influence  to  the  planting  of  Christianity  in  these  dark  regions ! 

THE   PBESENT  STATE  OF  THE  MISSION. 

"  The  Lord's  day  we  spend  as  follows : — At  nine  in  the  morning  the  school 
is  opened,  and  for  one  hour  we  teach  those  present  to  read  and  to  sing,  and 
catechise  them.  At  ten  the  Setabele  service  begins,  and  continues  about  one 
hour.    From  two  to  three  in  the  afternoon  another  school  is  h^,  and  from 


FOR  OCTOBER,   1865,  287 

three  to  ibnr  a  service  is  coniincted  in  Sechnana  for  the  few  who  speak  that 
language.  My  colleagues  have  continued  their  visits  to  some  of  the  neigh- 
bouring villages ;  but  since  our  arrival,  for  the  last  three  months,  we  have 
generally,  by  rains,  or  the  river  being  too  frill,  been  unable  to  go  to  these 
Tillages. 

THE   NATIVE    SUPERSTITIONS  A  GREAT  HINDRANCE   TO   THE   MISSION. 

**  During  the  first  eight  weeks  after  my  return  I  had  noticed  that  on  three 
Sundays  there  were  hardly  any  of  the  natives  present  at  our  services,  and 
ascertained  they  were  attending  to  their  heathenish  observances.  I  spoke  to 
my  informants  at  some  length  on  the  subject.  As  the  result  of  this  conversa- 
tion, the  chief  man  of  the  town  came  down  himself,  and  after  an  home's 
interview  he  said  that  two  of  the  three  Sundays  had  been  desecrated  by  them 
of  their  own  accord,  but  that  on  the  other  they  had  been  sent  for  by  the  TCing, 
and,  as  far  as  he  and  his  fellow- villagers  were  concerned,  they  would  not 
repeat  the  sin.  So  far  they  have  been  faithful  to  their  promise.  May  God 
enable  them  not  only  to  vow,  but  to  pay  their  vows  unto  Him ;  and  may  He 
teach  us  properly  to  warn  sinners,  that  we,  by  om*  indifference  and  silence, 
may  not  be  guilty  of  destroying  their  precious  souls ! 

A   REGULAR    DAT-SCHOOL. 

'*  It  is  a  great  pleasure  to  be  enabled  to  tell  you  that  at  last  we  have  com- 
menced a  daily  school.  Mr.  Sykes,  my  wife,  and  self  teach  in  turns.  We 
commenced  it  about  two  months  ago.  The  pupils  are  chiefly  the  children 
who  are  working  at  our  houses.  These  children  are  slightly  clothed :  their 
number  is  from  fifteen  to  twenty.  Some  of  them  are  already  able  to  spell, 
and,  had  we  any  reading-book  printed,  would  soon  begin  to  read.  But  all  our 
stock  of  books  being  a  small  hymn-book  and  first  lesson-book,  we  are  not 
able  to  advance  very  far  at  present ;  we  shall,  however,  go  as  far  as  we  can, 
teaching  them  to  commit  to  memory  as  much  of  the  Scripture  doctrines  as 
possible,  taking  some  catechism  as  a  guide. 

March  21th, — The  Bechuanas  from  Kuruman  who  are  here  have  suddenly 
made  up  their  minds  to  leave  in  the  morning,  and  therefore  I  have  but  to 
send  this  letter  as  it  is.  Except  Mr.  John  Moffat,  who  is  poorly,  we  are  all  in 
good  health,  our  Mission,  as  we  trust,  slowly  prospering.  The  Lord  is  very 
kind  unto  us,  and  causes  the  heathen  even  to  be  kind  and  affectionate.  Oh 
for  a  heart  filled  with  adoring  gratitude  unto  Him !  We  are  in  the  service  of 
the  best  of  masters.  Oh,  may  the  mighty  Spirit  descend  with  irresistible 
energy,  and  cause  these  tens  of  thousands  of  dead  soiils  to  live !  Continue,  my 
dear  Brother,  mightily  to  jpray  for  us,  that  we  may  both  be  kept  from 
descending  towards  the  poor  pagans  with  whom  we  are  so  entirely  sur- 
rounded, and  that  we  may  be  enabled  to  portray  before  them  the  blessed 
Saviour.     With  kindest  regards  to  the  Directors,  in  which  my  wife  joins,

KRUIS  FONTEI^\ 

The  Rev.  John  McLeod,  who  proceeded  to  8outh  Africa  about  a  year  since, 
lias  entered  upon  this  station,  heretofore  connected  with  the  village  of  Haxket. 
Our  devoted  brother  at  the  time  of  his  departure  from  England  was  in  a 
very  delicate  and  unsatisfactory  state  of  health,  and  the  fears  of  his  friends 
on  his  account  perhaps  exceeded  their  hopes.  But  we  trust,  from  the  report 
which  he  now  gives,  that  his  strength  has  much  increased,  and  that,  in  the 
salubrious  district  in  which  he  is  located,  he  will  be  favoured  with  sufficient 
health  and  energy  to  serve  his  Divine  Master  for  many  years,  and  to  call  in 
many  wanderers  from  the  wilderness  into  the  green  pastures  and  beside  the 
still  waters  of  the  Grood  Shepherd. 

"  Kmis  Fontein,  August  8th,  18^5. 
"  Deab  Dr.  Tidman, — I  delayed  thus  long  in  writing  till  I  might  be  aUe  te 
speak  more  correctly  as  to  the  state  of  things  at  Kruis  Fontein,  and  as  to  its 
suitability  as  regards  my  health.  I  felt  that,  though  I  gained  much  good  at 
Hankey  in  the  way  of  a  correct  knowledge  of  the  Dutch,  and  other  thmgs  as 
well,  yet  I  could  not  look  upon  it  as  my  station,  and  go  out  and  in  amongst 
the  people,  even  if  strength  permitted,  so  familiarly  as  I  could  wish,  and  tliere- 
fore  that  it  was  better  for  me  to  come  at  once  to  Kruis  Fontein,  so  that  I 
might  know  my  people,  learn  their  language,  and,  by  God's  blessing,  work 
amongst  them  as  increasing  strength  should  permit.  I  came  on  the  12th.  of 
May,  and  have  reason  to  be  thankful  that  I  did  so,  both  as  regards  tlte 
feeling  in  one's  heart  that  he  is  not  altogether  an  idler  in  the  vin^rard,  and 
also  that  I  feel  vety  much  stronger  and  better  than  I  did  at  Hank^.  You 
will  be  able  to  judge  somewhat  as  to  the  increase  of  strength  when  1 1^  yoa 
that  I  am  considerably  more  than  a  stone  heavier  now  than  I  was  five 
months  ago.  I  have  yet  the  cough  which  I  brought  with  me  frt>m  England, 
but  not.  the  feeling  of  languor,  the  great  want  of  energy,  and  the  great 
weakness  which  then  it  was  mine  to  suffer;  so  that,  through  the  Divine 
blessing,  I  trust  I  may  be  spared  to  work,  though  in  weakness,  for  the  Master 
in  this,  I  believe,  not  unfruitful  soil. 

"  As  to  the  state  of  affairs  h^re,  I  will  be  as  plain  and  brief  as  I  can.  The 
village  itself  is  very  small,  and  possesses  but  few  natural  beauties  in  its  imme- 
diate neighbourhood.  "We  do,  however,  get  a  glimpse  of  the  sea  <mi  bri^t 
days,  and  now  and  then  catch  sight  of  a  white  sail,  which  calls  to  mind  oar 
own  tedious  voyage  along  the  very  same  coast ;  and  on  another  side  we  have 
a  fine  range  of  hills  ,*  but  both  the  sea  and  the  hills  are  at  a  considerahle 
distance,  and  all  around  Kruis  Fontein  is  flat,  with  little  variety.  There  are  not 
very  many  houses  to  be  seen,  and  they  are  very  much  scattered.  They  wore 
all  black  houses  when  we  came  first,  but  they  are  mostly  white  now,  and  loc^ 
far  more  cheerful.  There  are  a  few  more  of  them,  too,  as  five  fisunilies  hare 
come  to  take  up  their  residence  on  the  place  since  our  arrival.  Seeing  so  few 
houses  and  people  on  week-da js,  the  strangerwould  wonder  to  see  our  old  kirk 
so  full  on  Sundays,  our  average  congregation  being  about  SOO.  Many  come 
long  distances ;  eight  or  ten  miles  is  nothing  to  them ;  and  we  had  two  hearers 
on  Sabbath  that  came  forty  miles.    If  God  continues  and  increases  strength.

FOR  OCTOBER,    1865.  289 

I  hope  to  commence  itmerating  next  month.  It  will  then  be  warmer,  and  I 
long  to  see  and  speak  to  those  poor  sheep  at  Ejrom  Biyer  and  the  Forest. 
Though  the  distance  is  great,  thej  must  not  be  forgotten.  I  am  puzzled  to 
know  how  I  can  do  this  regularly.  To  do  so  I  must  have  a  cart  and  hoi*so ; 
but  I  cannot  afford  a  penny  out  of  my  salary  towards  it,  and  we  are  about  to 
commence  the  building  of  a  new  church,  so  that  the  people  cannot  give  to  that 
purpose  for  the  present.  I  have  bought  a  horse  and  saddle,  as  it  was  neces- 
sary for  me  to  have  one,  so  that  I  might  visit  the  outskirts  of  my  station. 

"  We  have  over  115  church  members,  and  ten  new  ones  were  proposed  the 
last  month.  "We  have  thii-ty  seekers,  several  of  whom  we  hope  to  propose 
next  church  meeting.  With  all  the  drawbacks  from  which  the  place  has 
suffered,  there  has  been  evident  progress  in  the  Lord's  work,  clearly  showing 
that  *  not  by  might  nor  by  power,  but  by  my  Spirit,'  as  Qod  saith,  the  work 
must  be  done.  For  months  together  Mr.  Philip  has  been  unable  to  visit  the 
place,  yet  'the  word  of  the  Lord,'  as  spoken  by  unlearned  and  ignorant 
men,  '  had  free  course  and  was  glorified,'  so  that  *  many  were  added  to 
the  church  of  such  as  should  be  saved.*  Since  our  arrival  the  attendance  at 
the  serviceB  has  considerably  increased,  and  several  inquirers,  who  had  gone 
away  through  carelessness,  have,  we  trust,  been  restored,  while  others  have 
been  impressed  for  ike  first  time. 

"  We  have,  like  oHiers,  hindrances.  The  proximity  of  Humans  Dorp,  with 
its '  canteens,'  is  our  greatest  bane ;  but  the  necessity  which  many  of  the 
X>eople  feel  of  being  obliged  to  go  great  distances  in  order  to  obtain  work 
from  the  Boers — ^in  the  case  of  parents  leaving  children  without  the  due 
parental  care ;  and  in  that  of  young  people,  whose  hearts  are  not  established, 
forgetting  God — is  also  a  ffreat  evil, 

"  I  have  been  enabled  to  take  one  service  in  Dutch  for  several  Sabbaths 

past,  and  have  thrice  dispensed  the  Lord's  supper.     I  have  had  several 

baptisms  and  three  marriages;  so  that  I  have  been  already  initiated  into  all 

the  duties— Ihe  more  prominent  ones — of  the  missionary.    I  have  not  yet 

attempted  the  Kaffir  language,  though  the  number  of  Fingoes,  and  their 

importance  as  the  staunchest  of  church  members,  demand  that  they  should 

not  be  neglected.    There  are  numbers  of  Kaffirs  all  around,  of  whom  I  am 

not  aware  that  one  has  been  brought  under  the  influence  of  the  Gk)spel.    I 

need  not  say  to  you  that  the  Kaffirs  and  Fingoes,  though  speaking  the  same 

language,  are  very  differently  affected  by  the  story  of  the  Cross :  the  one  is 

softened,  the  other  hardened  by  it.    They,  the  Kaffirs,  are  gi-catly  incensed 

against  it,  as  it  is  the  religion  of  the  white  man.    I  must  not  omit  to  tell  you 

that  last  month  we  had  a  glorious  example  of  its  power  over  the  heart.    A 

Pingo  had  two  wives,  one  of  whom  was  brought  to  Christ.    She  finds  that 

she  cannot  remain  with  the  husband  and  have  Christ  for  her  Saviour ;  so  she 

declares  her  resolution,  and  says  to  her  husband  she  will  no  longer  live  with 

Ixim.     He  loved  her  well,  and  tries  all  he  can  to  persuade  her  to  remain  with 

him.    He  even,  in  his  ignorance,  promised  to  pray  earnestly  to  God  to  forgive 

her  sin,  if  she  remained.    But  no ;  her  love  for  her  husband  is  strong,  but 

the  love  of  Christ  is  stronger  still.    She  is  constrained  to  take  up  her  cross 

and   follow  Jesus;    and  she  is  now  an  intelligent  candidate  for  church 

niembership.  Digitized  by  LjOOgLC

ZEAL  AND  LIBERALITY  OF  MISSION  CHUECHES. 

JAMAICA. 

Thebe  is  no  measure  in  which  our  Mission  Churches  haye  adopted  more 
closely  the  manners  and  customs  of  their  friends  and  brethren  'in  Eng^, 
than  in  their  annual  public  meetings,  both  for  advocating  missionary  dsim 
and  stimulating  Christian  liberality.  We  give  insertion  to  the  reports  jnst 
received  from  Jamaica,  in  which  a  series  of  such  meetings  in  certain  districts 
of  that  island  is  related  by  one  of  our  missionary  brethren,  the  Rev.  Alexasdb 
LrNDO ;  and  it  will  be  evident  that  the  zeal  and  liberality  of  the  churches 
must  greatly  cheer  the  hearts  and  strengthen  the  hands  of  their  Mthful 
teachers.

have  been  labouring  in  this  island  with  manifest  tokens  of  the  Divine  fatov- 
In  renewing  the  history  of  our  churches,  there  is  abundant  cause  for  adffling 
gratitude;  and,  taking  the  past  as  a  pledge  and  promise  of  the  fdtore,  tliere 
is  solid  ground  to  anticipate  the  most  satisfactoiy  results.  To  God  be  all  the 
praise  ! 

"  Presuming  that  some  incidents  connected  with  the  Mission  may  neither 
prove  uninteresting  in  themselves,  nor  unsuitable  to  the  pages  of  the 
Chronicle,  I  herewith  frimish  a  few  particulars  respecting  some  of  our  recent 
missionary  anniversaries. 

"  In  the  parishes  of  Clarendon  and  Manchester,  lying  on  the  south  side  of 
the  island,  are  eight  of  our  Mission  chapels ;  five  in  the  former  place,  and 
three  in  the  latt^.  At  our  missionary  meetings  here,  as  in  England,  the 
representatives  of  various  religious  bodies  occupy  the  platform  along  with  oar 
own  brethren.  The  chair  is  generally  filled  by  some  worthy  layman.  F<^ 
three  or  four  years  past,  at  most  of  our  meetings,  a  gentleman  of  intelligence 
and  piety,  brought  to  God  during  the  late  awakeniog,  has  efficiently  presided. 

"  On  the  1st  day  of  August,  the  anniversary  of  emancipation — ^a  day  nerer 
to  be  forgotten  in  the  annals  of  this  coimtry — a  missionary  meeting  was  hM 
at  Brixton  Hill.  It  is  a  mountainous  locality,  and  one  of  the  stations  imder 
the  pastoral  care  of  the  Rev,  T.  H.  Clark.  The  congregation  on  the  occasJon 
was  large  and  attentive.  The  speeches,  like  the  resolutions  on  which  they 
were  based,  were  comprehensive  in  their  range  of  subjects,  embracing  negro 
freedom,  the  recent  drought,  &c.,  in  addition  to  the  home  and  foreign  mis- 
sionary work.    These  subjects,  though  unsuitable  to  the  mmdd^an  of  Exet«r

ingly  appropriate  here. 

*<  Srer  and  anon  there  came  to  the  surface^  ciroumstanees,  trifling  in  them- 
selves, perhaps,  yet  not  without  their  lessons  and  encouragements.  A  few 
of  them — ^those  most  worthy  of  notice — I  shall  mention  in  connection  with 
the  places  at  which  they  occurred.  At  Brixton  Hill  a  poor  invalid,  confined 
to  her  bed  for  months,  and  often  without  the  necessaries  of  life,  managed  to 
save  and  send  to  the  meeting  the  sum  of  ene  shilling — a  very  large  contribution 
indeed  for  one  so  destitute.  Hers  was  the  widow's  mite,  and  will  not  escape 
the  £B.Tourable  notice  of  the  Master,  who  still  sits  against  the  treasuiy.  Here 
also  an  old  African  couple,  husband  and  wife,  being  each  about  ninety  years 
of  age,  brought — doubtless,  not  without  much  self-denial — the  liberal  sum  of 
£1  2s,,  and  laid  it  on  the  missionary  altar.  Next  day  a  similar  meeting  was 
held  at  Four  Paths,  a  village  some  miles  distant,  Mr.  Clark's  principal  station. 
The  attendance  was  not  equal  to  that  of  last  year,  owing  to  prevailing  poverty 
and  sickness.  As  a  rule,  in  times  of  drought  persons  residing  in  the  lowlands 
suffer  more  than  those  in  the  mountains.  Physical  causes  account  for  this 
fact.  Here  there  was,  however,  no  sign  of  waning  interest  in  the  cause  of 
Christ,  but  the  contrary.  I  may  mention  that  a  little  girl  belonging  to  the 
school  here,  by  her  own  unaided  efforts,  in  making  ginger-beer  and  exposing 
it  for  sale  during  the  year,  earned  10«.,  which  she  cheerfully  brought  as 
her  missionary  offering. 

"  The  next  meeting,  held  on  the  3rd  intt.,  was  at  Cha^eUoHy  the  capital  of 
Clarendon,  the  station  of  the  Bev.  James  Dalgleish.  Hie  gathering  was  in 
the  new  and  neat  school-room.  I  hope  the  next  will  be  held  in  the  new 
chapel. 

"  During  the  year  we  have  had  to  mingle  our  tears  of  sympathy  with  those 
of  sorrow  shed  by  this  missionaiy  brother  on  the  death  of  his  devoted  wife. 
Her  grave,  with  its  neat  iron  railing,  lies  a  little  away  from  the  school-room ; 
and  with  silent  eloquence  it  spoke  to  our  hearts,  urging  us  all  to  'work  while 
it  is  day ;  for  the  night  cometh.' 

''  This  meeting,  like  the  others  referred  to,  was  a  good  (me.  Among  the 
occurrences  of  the  morning  was  that  of  a  bereaved  mother  who,  in  the  spirit 
of  thankful  acquiescence  and  holy  joy,  brought  for  the  missionary  cause  the 
amount  which  her  little  girl  had  collected  before  her  removal  to  another 
world. 

''Starting  for  Mount  Zion — a  place  beautiful  for  situation,  but  rather 
difficult  of  access — where  the  Rev.  Alfred  Joyce  b  labouring,  we  had  to  ford 
numerous  streams,  swollen  and  made  dangerous  by  recent  rains,  and  to  climb 
the  mountain-side  after  nightfalL  Amid  a  continuation  of  showers,  the  congre- 
gation assembled  next  day,  some  of  them  dripping  wet;  showing  that  many 
waters  could  not  quench  their  love.  The  gathering  was  large,  and  the 
proceedings  deeply  interesting.  On  the  following  Tuesday  the  last  of  the 
series  of  meetings  was  held  at  Bread-nut  Bottom^  another  of  Mr.  Clark's 
stations.  This  is  a  comparatively  infant  cause;  but  its  neat  substantial 
chapel,  its  congregation  and  schools,  afford  unmistakable  evidence  that  the 
people  are  really  earnest. 

"  Thus  ended  our  August  missionary  meetings  of  Clarendon  for  the  present 


292  MISSIONARY  MAGAZIITE 

year.  I  speak  the  sentiments  of  all  ike  brethren  who  nnited  in  the  8er?ic€i 
in  saying  we  felt  thankful  for  the  interest  exhibited  by  the  people  generally, 
for  the  amounts  contributed,  notwithstanding  the  unusual  severity  of  the 
drought  and  consequent  distress,  for  the  devout  spirit  which  pervaded  oar 
assemblies,  and  for  the  fraternal  feeling  cherished  and  shown  towards  eacb 
other  by  missionaries  of  different  denominations. 

"  Before  closing,  I  may  be  permitted  to  refer  to  my  own  meeting  at  WkUefidd, 
which  is  regularly  held  on  Good  Friday.  That  of  this  year  afforded  eridencc 
of  the  people  emulating  in  some  little  degree  the  churches  of  Macedonia, 
whose  '  deep  poverty  aboimded  imto  the  riches  of  their  liberality.'  Among 
the  incidents  which  might  be  told  is  that  of  a  poor  woman,  a  church  pensiofner, 
whose  leg  has  been  amputated,  and  who  moves  about  on  crutches:  she 
contributed  6«.  6(f.  towards  the  missionary  fimd. 

"  At  Christmas  the  other  stations  in  Manchester  will  hold  their  »«^«iJ 
meetings.  .  I  shall  be  glad  then  to  send  you  (B.Y.)  another  communication.

SOUTH  SEAS. 

To  the  above  narrative  of  public  meetings  in  Jamaica  we  add  the  reports  of 
missionary  contributions  from  the  far-distant  islands  of  the  South  Pacuic, 
including  Savaoe  Island,  Eaiatba,  and  Earotonga.  In  all  these  the  mis- 
sionaries report  progress ;  and  we  could  most  earnestly  desire  that  the  churches 
of  Britain  were  animated  by  a  similar  zeal  and  devotcdness,  that  the  Directors 
of  our  Society  might  be  better  able  to  report  progre^  at  home,

"  I  am  happy  to  say  we  are  all  well,  and  Gk>d  continues  to  prosper  our  work. 
The  contributions  of  our  island  for  the  new  ship  and  the  London  MiRaioTianr 
Society  are  now  complete.  The  children  have  raised  cocoa*nut  fibre  and 
cotton,  9632  lbs.  of  tho  former,  and  195  lbs.  of  the  latter.  At  a  low  estimate 
these,  with  a  little  money,  will  realize  £124  7#.  6rf.  The  adults  have  oonM- 
buted  15,518  lbs.  of  fibre,  and  270  lbs.  of  cotton.  These,  with  fifteen  dollars 
of  money,  are  valued  at  £200.  Had  we  a  Mission  vessel  to  take  the  fibre,  &c^ 
to  Sydney,  they  would  doubtless  realize  twice  the  amount. 

"  Our  natives  (population  5000)  are  very  poor,  but  Savage  Island  'hath  done 
what  she  could.'    The  above  £324  has  not  been  raised  without  a  great  effcnt. 

"  I  have  no  time  now  to  give  you  any  particulars  of  our  work.  We  are 
hoping  for  another  chance  to  send  letters  in  the  course  of  a  month  or  so, 
when  we  shall  have  our  orders,  &c.,  ready."

will  show  :—

FOR   OCTOBER,    1865.  293 

"  On  Wednesday,  the  3rd  inst.,  we  commenced  in  the  nsoal  way  by  an  early 
prayer- meeting;  a  sermon  in  the  morning ;  in  the  afternoon  our  usual  public 
meeting.  The  chapel  being  crowded,  there  was  a  warmth  of  feeling  awakened 
in  the  speakers  that  continued  until  the  close,  and  which  gave  to  the  proceed- 
ings of  the  afternoon  a  tone  of  the  deepest  interest.  Towards  the  close  of  the 
meeting  the  people  contiibuted  to  the  Society  the  sum  of  £23  16^.,  which  is 
an  advance  upon  last  year  of  £4  2s.  Bd.  It  was  almost  dark  when  we  left  the 
chapel,  and  every  one  seemed  to  truly  enjoy  the  proceedings  of  the  day. 

**  On  Friday,  the  5th,  the  children  all  assembled  at  the  usual  hour  in  the 
chapel,  and,  after  a  short  address,  singing,  and  prayer,  they  repaired  to  their 
respective  tables,  which  their  parents  and  friends  had  prepared  for  them 
outside.  It  was  a  beautiful  day,  and  not  quite  so  hot  as  it  is  usually,  so  that 
the  procession  which  took  place  after  the  feast  was  performed  with  much 
less  fatigue  than  has  been  experienced  on  former  occasions.  After  calling  at 
the  houses  of  the  respective  chiefs,  they  returned  to  the  chapel,  where  they 
repeated  their  chapters  which  they  had  learnt  for  the  occasion,  and  sang 
their  hymns  to  a  crowd  of  admiring  spectators.  They  then  contributed  to 
the  Society  £16  12*.,  which  is  also  an  advance  upon  last  year  of  £4  4*.  6rf. ; 
making  altogether  a  contribution  of  £40  8«.,  an  advance  upon  last  year  of 
£8  7t.  2d. 

"  Is  not  this  encouraging  P  Your  remark  about  the  disproportion  of  the 
amount  given  by  the  children  and  that  of  the  Church  and  congregation  is 
quite  correct :  it  does  appear  small.  But  when  we  remember  that  a  great 
many  of  our  best  contributors — members  of  the  church — are  also  scholars  or 
teachers  in  the  school,  who  for  the  most  part,  I  apprehend,  reserve  their 
offering  for  the  children's  day,  it  will  be  easily  explained.  It  occurs  again 
this  year,  as  you  will  perceive. 

"  It  will  be  gratifying  to  you  also  to  hear  that  the  church  continues  to 
increase,  and,  so  £Ehr  as  we  can  judge,  to  improve  in  Divine  things.  We  have 
201  in  church-fellowship,  giving  us  an  increase  since  last  year  of  forty-six,  no 
less  than  forty-one  of  whom  have  come  to  us  from  Tevaitoa,  having  separated 
from  Napairo.  In  our  school  we  have  204  children,  and  sixteen  teachers ;  giving 
us  also  an  increase  in  this  department  of  our  work  of  forty- seven  children,  aud 
four  teachers,  most  of  whom  are  also  from  Tevaitoa.  Our  Sabbath  congrega- 
tion continu£s  to  give  us  much  satisfaction,  and  many  from  among  the 
thoughtless  are  more  regular  in  their  attendance  on  Divine  service. 

**  Our  Union  of  Native  Pastors  and  Deacons,  which  took  place  at  Huahine 
in  March,  was  quite  a  success ;  indeed,  it  was  the  best  meeting  we  have  had, 
and  good  results  cannot  fail  to  follow. 

"  Mrs.  Vivian  joins  with  me  in  kind  regards  to  yourself  and  all  the  other 
Directors. 

**  I  am,  rev.  and  dear  Sir,

but  be  filled  with  gratitude  and  praise  for  the  many  mercies  receired  and 
aBsistance  granted  unto  us  in  our  many  and  severe  trials. 

INCREASE  OP  SUBSCRIPTIONS. 

"  On  the  6th  of  May  we  held  our  May  Meeting  in  Avarua^  and  a  rwy 
cheering  one  it  was.  The  contributions  reached  280  dollars,  60  cents.  T^ 
meetings  at  Arorangi  were  arranged  for  the  8th,  Titikaveka  the  12tb, 
Ngatangiia  13th,  and  Matauera  15th.  The  total  contributions  reached  560 
dollars,  being  ten  dollars  more  than  last  year.  Truly  our  people  hare  done 
nobly. 

NATIVE  TEACHERS  TRAINED  AND  SENT  FORTH. 

"  At  the  request  of  our  brethren  in  the  Western  Mission  we  sent  again 
four  native  teachers,  with  their  Wives — Simeona  for  Fatuna,  Kaldta  for  Nitu^ 
and  Teapara  and  Koreiti  for  Uea,  We  have  now  sent  out  since  I  took  tiie 
Institution  sixteen  native  teachers  to  our  Western  Mission — fifteen  married, 
and  one  single — ^thirty-one  persons  in  all. 

STUDENTS  IN  THE  INSTITUTION. 

"  The  six  young  men  from  Mamhiki  now  in  the  Institution  are  a  great 
pleasure  to  me;  all  evince  a  great  desire  to  learn,  and  their  abilities  are 
quite  equal  to  those  from  our  islands.  Our  students  in  general  have  shown  a 
very  commendable  zeal  in  acquiring  the  necessary  qualifications,  and  the 
course  of  study  has  been  the  same  as  last  year.  The  time  not  ^igaged  in  stndf 
has  been  occupied  in  learning  the  various  trades  taught  in  our  Institiitioii. 
which  have  so  much  contributed  in  making  our  students  acceptable  every- 
where, and  very  useful  to  new  missionaries  in  new  islands.  There  are  at  pr»ent 
fifteen  married  students,  five  honorary  students,  and  three  young  mem  from 
Savage  Island,  who  have  been  cast  ashore  here  by  an  American  captain. 
We  thought  it  for  the  interest  of  our  Mission  to  receive  them,  and  instruct 
them  till  we  could  send  them  home,  hoping  thus  to  preserve  them  from  evil 
influence,  and  to  make  them  useful  to  our  brother  in  that  island. 

BUILDING  OF  CHAPELS. 

"  The  chapel  in  Arorangi  was  reopened  on  the  Ist  of  January  with  great 
rejoicing.  It  is  now  the  finest  object  in  all  Rarotonga.  The  people  of 
Titikaveka  are  following  the  example  of  Ararat^,  and  have  erected  a  fine 
large  chapel.

GENEBOTTS  CONTRIBUTIONS  TOWARDS  A  NEW  SHIP. 

"The  moment  our  people  heard  of  the  loss  of  our  dear  vessel  the  '  John 
Williams'  they  were  struck  with  astonishment,  which  soon  gave  way  to 
lamentation,  and  they  resolved  to  do  all  they  could  to  aid  in  buying  another 
ship.  The  foreigners  on  the  island  did  all  they  could  to  throw  cold  watar 
upon  their  feelings  by  telling  them  that  it  was  no  loss  to  the  Society,  as  she 
was  insured ;  yet  they  would  not  be  restrained.  Meetings  were  held  imme- 
diately in  all  settlements ;  and  the  feelings  of  our  people  were  so  excited 
that,  had  they  not  been  so  very  poor  just  now,  you  would  have  had  a  larger 
contribution  than  Rarotonga  ever  collected.    Oil,  coffee,  arrowroot,  tobacco.

and  shells  were  brought;  and,  as  far  as  I  can  asceriam,  we  shall  realize

THE  HAWAIIAN  ISLANDS. 

Vakiotjs  circumstances  have  ccnctirred  to  invest  these  islands  with  a  peculiar 
interest.  Within  less  than  half  a  century  they  have,  under  enlightened 
Christian  teaching,  emerged  irom  barbarism  and  assumed  a  highly  respect- 
able position  among  the  civilized  nations  of  the  world.  They  enjoy  the 
advantages  of  constitutional  government,  and  of  just  laws  impartially 
administered,  and  the  stimulus  which  has  been  given  to  efforts  in  favour  of 
education  among  all  classes  is  truly  wonderful !  But  the  crowning  glory  of 
these  islands,  and  the  source  and  spring  of  all  their  other  blessings,  is  the 
Gospel;  and  we  would  give  all  honour  to  the  missionaries,  the  devoted 
agents  of  the  American  Board  of  Commimoners  for  Foreign  Missions,  by 
whom  that  Gospel  has  been  made  known  for  nearly  half  a  century  to  the 
people  of  Hawaii. 

It  will  be  remembered  by  many  of  the  friends  and  constituents  of  our  own 
Society,  that  upwards  of  forty  years  ago,  viz.,  in  the  year  1822,  the  Rev. 
Wm.  Ellis  proceeded  to  this  group,  and  actually  commenced  a  Mission 
there ;  but,  having  been  compelled  to  leave  for  Europe  on  account  of  the 
failure  of  Mrs.  Ellis's  health,  he  relinquished  the  Mission  in  favour  of  the 
American  brethren. 

It  will  also  be  in  the  recollection  of  many  that  several  years  since  the  then 
King  and  Queen  of  the  Hawaiian  Group  paid  a  visit  to  England,  and 
re-embarked  under  the  charge  of  Captain  Lord  Byron;  but  unfortunately  our 
northern  climate  proved  fatal  to  them,  and  they  both  died  on  the  homeward 
passage. 

The  follovring  statement,  corroborative  of  the  great  work  that  has  been 
carried  on  by  the  missionaries  in  Hawaii,  is  borne  by  Richakd  H.  Daka,  Esq., 
a  distinguished  lawyer  and  member  of  the  Episcopal  Church  in  Boston,  U.S. 
Mr.  D.  visited  the  islands  in  1860,  and  his  narrative,  which  was  first  pub- 
lished in  the  ^ew  York  TribunSy  will,  we  doubt  not,  be  read  by  our  friends 
with|intere6t  and  advantage. 

WONDEBFUL  DEVELOPMENT  AND  FBOOBESS  OF  THE  NATIVES. 

"  It  is  no  small  thing  to  [say  of  the  missionaries  of  the  American  Board, 
that  in  less  than  forty  years  they  have  taught  this  whole  people  to  read  and 
to  write,  to  cipher  and  to  sew.    They  have  given  them  an  alphabet,  grammar, 


296  MISSIOKART  MAGAZINE 

and  dictionary ;  preserved  their  langnage  from  extinction ;  given  it  a  liten- 
tore,  and  translated  into  it  the  Bible  and  works  of  devotion,  scienoet  and 
entertainment,  &c.,  &c.  Thej  have  established  schools,  reared  up  natife 
teachers,  and  so  pressed  their  work  that  now  the  proportion  of  inhabftaatt 
who  can  read  and  write  is  greater  than  in  New  En^and ;  and  whereas  thg' 
found  these  islanders  a  nation  of  half-naked  savages,  living  in  the  surf  and  a 
the  sand,  eating  raw  fish,  fighting  among  themselves,  tyrannized  over  bj 
feudal  chiefs,  and  abandoned  to  sensuality,  they  now  see  them  decentij 
clothed,  recognising  the  law  of  marriage,  knowing  something  of  acoovnts, 
going  to  school  and  public  worship  with  more  regularity  than  the  people  do 
at  home,  and  the  more  elevated  of  them  taking  part  in  conducting  the  affiurs 
of  the  constitutional  monarchy  under  which  they  live,  holding  seats  on  tlie 
judicial  bench  and  in  the  legislative  chambers,  and  filling  posts  in  the  local 
magistracies. 

THE  PBUIT8  OP  MISSIONABT  INPLTJENCE. 

*'  It  is  often  objected  against  missionaries  that  a  people  must  be  civilized 
before  it  can  be  Christianized ;  or,  at  least,  that  the  two  processes  most  go 
on  together,  and  that  the  mere  preacher,  with  his  book  under  his  arm,  among 
a  barbarous  people  is  an  unprofitable  labourer.  But  the  missionaries  to  the 
Sandwich  Islands  went  out  in  families,  and  planted  themselves  in  households, 
carrying  with  them,  and  exhibiting  to  the  natives,  the  customs,  maimers, 
comfoi*ts,  discipline,  and  order  of  civilized  society.  Each  house  was  a  centre 
and  source  of  civilizing  influences;  and  the  natives  generally  yielded  t« 
the  superiority  of  our  civilization,  and  copied  its  ways;  for,  unlike  the 
Asiatics,  they  had  no  civilization  of  their  own,  and,  ^unlike  the  North 
American  Indians,  they  were  capable  of  civilization.  Each  missionary 
was  obliged  to  qualify  himself,  to  some  extent,  as  a  physician  and  sargeon 
before  leaving  home;  and  each  Mission-house  had  its  medicine  chest,  and  was 
the  place  of  resort  by  the  natives  for  medicines  and  medical  advice  and  care. 
Each  missionary  was  a  school  teacher  to  the  natives  in  their  own  language, 
and  the  women  of  the  Missions,  who  were  no  less  missionaries  than  their 
husbands,  taught  schools  for  women  and  children,  instructing  them  not  only 
in  books,  but  in  sewing,  knitting,  and  ironing,  in  singing  by  note,  and  in  the 
discipline  of  children.  These  Mission  families,  too,  were  planted  as  ganiscns 
would  have  been  planted  by  a  military  conqueror,  in  places  where  there  were 
no  inducements  of  trade  to  carry  families ;  so  that  no  large  region,  however 
difficult  of  access,  or  undesirable  as  a  residence,  is  without  its  head-quarters 
of  religion  and  civilization.  The  women  of  the  Mission,  too,  can  approach 
the  native  women  and  children  in  many  ways  not  open  to  men — as  in  their 
sickness,  and  by  the  peculiar  sympathies  of  sex — and  thus  exert  the  tenderest, 
which  arc  often  the  most  decisive  influences. 

CHABACTEB  AND  TALENTS  OP  THE  MISSIONARIES. 

'*  In  the  course  of  the  two  months  I  have  spent  upon  these  islands,  it  has 
been  my  good  fortime  to  be  the  guest  of  many  of  the  Mission  fiunilies,  and  to 
become  more  or  less  acquainted  with  nearly  all  of  them.  And,  besides  fidelity 
in  the  discharge  of  their  duties  to  the  natives,  I  can  truly  say,  that  in  point  of 
kindness  and  hospitality  to  strangers,  of  intelligence  and  general  informatiQB* 


TOR   OCTOBER,    1865.  297 

of  solicitude  and  painstaking  for  the  liberal  education  of  their  cMldren,  and  of 
zeal  for  the  acquirement  of  information  of  every  sort,  it  would  be  difficult  to 
find  their  superiors  among  the  most  favoured  families  at  home.  I  have  seen 
in  their  houses  collections  of  minerals,  shells,  plants,  and  flowers  which  must 
be  Taliiable  to  science ;  and  the  missionaries  have  often  preserved  the  best, 
aometimes  the  only  records  of  the  volcanic  eruptions,  earthquakes,  and  other 
phenomena  and  meteorological  observations.  Besides  having  given,  as  I  have 
said,  to  the  native  language  an  alphabet,  grammar,  dictionary,  and  literature, 
they  have  done  nearly  all  that  has  been  done  to  preserve  the  national  tradi- 
tions, legends,  and  poetry.  But  for  the  missionaries,  it  is  my  firm  belief  that 
the  Hawaiian  would  never  have  been  a  written  language ;  there  would  have 
been  few  or  no  trustworthy  early  records,  historical  or  scientific;  the  traditions 
would  have  perished,  the  native  government  would  have  been  overborne  by 
foreign  influences,  and  the  interesting,  intelligent,  gentle  native  race  would 
haye  sunk  into  insignificance,  and  perhaps  into  servitude  to  the  dominant 
whites. 

SUPERIOR  EDUCATIONAL  SYSTEM. 

"  The  educational  system  of  the  islands  is  the  work  of  the  missionaries  and  . 
their  supporters  among  the  foreign  residents,  and  one  formerly  of  the  Mission 
is  now  Minister  of  Education.  In  every  district  are  free  schools  for  natives. 
In  these  they  are  taught  reading,  writing,  singing  by  note,  arithmetic,  gram- 
mar, and  geography,  by  native  teachers.  At  Lahainaluna  is  the  Normal 
School  for  Natives,  where  the  best  scholars  from  the  district  schools  are 
received  and  carried  to  an  advanced  stage  of  education,  and  those  who  desire 
it  are  fitted  for  the  duties  of  teachers.  This  was  originally  a  Mission  School, 
but  is  now  partly  a  Government  institution.  Several  of  the  missionaries, 
in  small  and  remote  stations,  have  schools  for  advanced  studies,  among 
which  I  visited  several  times  that  of  Mr.  Lyman,  at  Hilo,  where  there  are 
nearly  100  native  lads ;  and  all  the  under-teachers  are  natives.  These  lads 
had  an  orchestra  often  or  twelve  flutes,  which  made  veiy  creditable  music. 
At  Honolulu  there  is  a  royal  school  for  natives,  and  another  middle  school 
for  whites  and  half-castes ;  for  it  has  been  found  expedient  generally  to  sepa- 
rate the  races  in  education.  Both  these  schools  are  in  exceUent  condi- 
tion. But  the  special  pride  of  the  missionary  efforts  for  education 
is  the  High  School  or  College  of  Punahou.  This  was  established  for 
the  education  of  the  children  of  the  Mission  families,  and  has  been 
enlarged  to  receive  the  children  of  other  foreign  residents,  and 
is  now  an  incorporated  college,  with  some  seventy  scholars.  The 
course  of  studies  goes  aa  fiir  as  the  end  of  the  Sophomore  year  in  our  New 
England  colleges,  and  is  expected  soon  to  go  farther.  The  teachers  are 
young  men  of  the  Mission  families,  taught  first  at  this  school,  with  educations 
finished  in  the  colleges  of  New  England,  where  they  have  taken  high  rank. 
At  Williams  College  there  were  at  one  time  five  pupils  from  this  school,  one 
of  whom  was  the  first  scholar,  and  four  of  whom  were  among  the  first  seven 
scholars  of  the  year ;  and  another  of  the  professors  at  Punahou  was  the  first 
Bcholar  of  his  year  at  New  Haven.  I  attended  several  recitations  at  Punahou 
in  Greek,  Latin,  and  mathematics ;  and  after  having  said  that  the  teachers 


298  MISSIONARY  MAGAZINE 

were  leading  aeholars  in  oar  colleges,  and  the  pupils  mostly  children  of  tk 
Mission  families,  I  need  hardly  add  that  I  advised  the  yoimg  meaa.  to  remak 
there  to  the  end  of  the  course,  as  they  coold  not  pass  the  Freahman  sad 
Sophomore  years  more  profitably  elsewhere,  in  my  judgment.  The  examhu- 
tions  in  Latin  and  Gkreek  were  particularly  thorough  in  etymology  aad 
syntax.  The  Gbreek  was  read  both  by  the  qnantity  and  by  the  printed  aoccat, 
and  the  teachers  were  disposed  to  follow  the  Continental  proBoanciatioii  of  the 
vowels  in  the  classic  languages,  if  that  system  should  be  adopted  in  the  liev 
En^^and  Colleges.  It  is  upon  that  system  tiiat  the  native  al^^iabet  was  coa- 
structed  by  the  missionaries.  This  iastitntion  must  detennine,  in  a  great 
measure,  the  (diaracter,  not  (mly  of  ihe  rising  generation  of  ^litee,  bnt»  m 
education  proceeds  downward,  and  not  upward,  also  that  of  the  natives.  It 
is  the  chief  hope  of  the  people,  who  have  np&at  their  utmost  upon  it,  and  are 
now  making  an  appeal  for  aid  in  the  United  States ;  an  appeal  that  oogfac 
not  to  be  unsuocessfhL 

YINDICATION  OF  THE  MIS8I0NABIES  FBOM  PBBJUDICE   AN1> 
MISBEPBBSEKTATIOK. 

**  Among  the  traders,  shipmasters,  and  travellers  who  have  visited  thsM 
islands,  some  have  made  disparaging  statements  respecting  the  missionaries; 
and  a  good  deal  of  imperfect  information  is  carried  home  by  persons  who  have 
visited  only  the  half-Europeanized  ports,  where  the  worst  view  of  the  condi- 
tion of  the  natives  is  presented.  I  visited  amoi^  all  classes — the  foreiga 
merchants,  traders,  and  shipmasters,  foreign  and  native  officials,  and  with  the 
natives,  from  the  King  and  several  of  the  chiefs  to  the  humblest  poor,  when 
I  saw  without  constraint  in  a  tour  I  made  alone  over  Hawaii,  throwing  mjself 
upon  their  hospitality  in  tdieir  huts.  I  sought  information  from,  all,  fordga 
and  native,  frigidly  and  unfriendly ;  and  the  conclusion  to  which  I  came  is, 
that  the  best  men,  and  those  who  are  best  acquainted  with  the  history  of 
things  here,  hold  in  high  esteem  the  labours  and  conduct  of  the  missionaries.'

CHKONICLE. 


MADAGASCAR. 

AERIYAL    OP   THE   REV.  WILLIAM   ELLIS. 

The  gratifying  anticipations  expressed  in  our  last  Number  have,  through  the 
kind  providence  of  God,  been  fuUy  realized.  On  the  15th  ulto.  our  vene- 
rable friend  the  Rev.  William  Ellis  arrived  at  Southampton,  and  on  the 
Tuesday  following  the  Directors  had  the  great  pleasure  of  receiving  him  at 
the  Mission  House  in  health  and  peace,  and  giving  him  a  cordial  welcome 
home.  We  rejoice  to  say  that  the  four  years  spent  in  Madagascar,  with  the 
deep  anxieties  and  onerous  duties  of  his  position,  have  scarcely  affected  the 
appearance  of  Mr.  E.,  and  that  his  general  vigour,  both  physical  and  mental, 
is  such  as  to  demand  grateful  praises  to  the  Father  of  mercies,  who  watched 
over  and  sustained  His  servant  in  the  many  trying  and  dangerous  scenes 
through  which  he  has  passed  while  absent  from  his  native  land. 

The  narrative,  given  to  the  Directors  by  Mr.  Ellis,  of  events  in  Madagascar, 
and  of  the  present  state  and  prospects  of  the  Mission,  was  most  gratifying, 
and,  as  a  whole,  exceeded  the  most  favourable  impressions  we  had  previously 
entertained.  With  regard  to  the  number  of  native  Christians  in  the  capital, 
the  estimate  formed  by  our  friend  amounts  to  ten  thousand  ;  and,  so  far  as 
he  has  had  the  means  of  forming  a  judgment,  their  numbers  in  the  different 
parts  of  Madagascar,  near  and  distant  from  the  capital,  approach  five  thott- 
SAND  more. 

The  social  status  also  of  many  of  the  Malagasy  Christians  is  one  of  much 
valuable  influence.     A  considerable  proportion  bilong  to  the  upp^dasses  of

society ;  and,  in  the  families  of  the  nobles  and  officers  of  the  capital,  many  of 
their  children^  who  have  attained  adult  age,  haye  renonnced  the  superstitiaos 
of  their  country,  and  are  sincere  worshippers  of  the  true  God,  and  belieyetBin 
His  Son  Jesus  Chiist;  and,  although  their  parents  in  many  instances  are  still 
attached  to  the  old  superstitions  of  the  country,  they  manifest  no  oppoataoii 
to  their  children  and  dependents  in  carrying  out  their  Christian  principles. 

Then  the  zeal  and  activity  of  these  converts  is  rery  exemplary  and  stiik- 
ing.  Every  individual  who  professes  to  believe  the  Gospel  labours  to  malie 
known  its  truths  and  commend  its  blessings  to  his  neighbour;  and  this  win 
account,  under  the  Divine  blessing,  for  the  astoni^iing  increase  in  the  number, 
both  of  the  congregations  and  the  churches,  during  the  short  period  of  Mr. 
Ellis's  residence  at  the  capital. 

The  native  teachers  of  different  classes  also  prove  valuable  eo-worken  witii 
the  missionaries ;  and  when  the  plans  contemplated  for  training  a  body  of 
native  sckoolmastera  are  brought  into  full  operation  we  have  no  doubt  ihst 
the  education  of  the  young  will  be  carried  forward  with  greater  efficiency  tl»n 
has  hitherto  been  practicable. 

On  the  whole,  the  general  state  of  the  Mission  is  that  of  growing  strength 
and  consolidation,  and  such  as  justifies  a  sanguine  expectation  of  permanenoe 
and  extension ; — a  condition,  viewed  in  relation  to  the  past,  which  gieatij 
exceeds  our  highest  expectations,  and  which,  in  relation  to  our  future  labours, 
affords  the  assurance  of  results  more  extensive  and  commanding. 

Mr.  EUis  explained  to  the  Directors  the  substance  of  the  treaty  recent^ 
concluded  between  Great  Britain  and  Madagascar,  which,  as  we  have  already 
announced,  guarantees  freedom  in  the  profession  and  practice  of  Christianity 
both  to  the  natives  and  to  the  European  missionaries,  and  secures  also  to  ^ 
Protestant  Christians  the  sole  occupation  of  the  Memorial  Churches  that 
shall  be  erected  for  their  use. 

In  conclusion,  while  cTierishing  the  gratifying  views  and  expectations  now 
expressed,  we  entreat  the  earnest  prayers  of  the  members  of  our  Society,  and 
of  the  friends  of  Missions  in  general,  for  the  special  care  and  protection  of 
the  Great  Shepherd  over  His  redeemed  flock  in  Madagascar,  that  they  may 
be  guarded  against  all  dangers,  both  from  within  and  from  without,  and  be 
nourished,  through  His  Holy  Spirit,  by  the  truths  of  salvation  and  tiie 
ordinances  of  His  grace.

LAUNCH  OF  THE  "JOHN  WILLIAMS." 

To  carry  on  the  work  of  Missioiis  in  the  numerous  islands  of  the  Pacific, 
and  to  maintain  an  efficient  superintendence  of  the  native  agents  and  Churches, 
a  missionary  ship  has  be^i  long  found  indispensahle.  The  ''Duff/'  the 
**  Camden,"  and  the  first  "  John  Williams  "  have  done  excellent  service  in 
past  years ;  and  now  that  a  second  ship  bearing  that  honoured  name  is 
preparing  to  set  forth  on  her  benevolent  enterprise,  we  trust  that,  throu^ 
the  Divine  blessing,  her  course  may  prove  yet  more  eminently  prosperous 
than  that  of  her  predecessors. 

In  introducing  the  account  of  the  late  ceremonial  at  Aberdeen,  we  have 
now  the  pleasure  to  state — ^more  especially  for  the  information  of  our  juvenile 
feiends — that  the  new  "  John  Williams"  has  reached  London,  and  is  lying  in 
the  West  India  Docks,  where  she  will  shortly  be  open,  under  proper  regula- 
tions, to  inspection. 

When  the  Directors  of  the  London  Missionary  Society  resolved  to  build  a 
new  ship  in  place  of  the  "  John  Williams,"  wrecked  last  year  on  Danger 
Island,  in  the  South  Pacific,  tenders  were  received  from  a  select  number  of 
shipbuilders  in  different  parts  of  the  kingdom.  The  estimate  furnished  by 
Messrs.  Alexander  Hall  and  Co.,  Aberdeen,  was  accepted,  not  only  because 
it  was  the  lowest,  but  because,  in  looking  at  the  figures,  and  in  view  of  all 
the  circumstances  of  the  case,  it  was  felt  that  the  builders  would  enter  into 
the  contract,  not  with  a  view  to  profit,  but  because,  as  they  afterwards  said, 
*'  they  had  never  built  a  ship  for  war,  but  were  anxious  to  have  the  privilege 
and  the  honour  of  building  one  for  peace."  Having  furnished  a  beautiM 
model  of  a  clipper  barque,  the  ship  was  completed  within  the  specified  time, 
and  on  Thursday,  the  6th  of  October,  was  launched  into  her  future  element 
amid  the  cheers  of  an  immense  number  of  spectators.  But,  before  describing 
the  launch,  and  giving  an  account  of  the  proceedings  connected  with  it,  we 
shall  describe  the  ship  herself,  with  all  her  appointments. 

The  **  John  Williams  "  is  a  barque  of  124  feet  in  length,  25  feet  in  breadth, 
and  15  feet  depth  of  hold.  Her  builder's  measure  is  370  tons;  and  she  is 
classed  13  years  A 1  on  Lloyd's  register.  The  frame  is  of  British  oak,  trussed 
diagonally  with  iron  plates.  Iron  beams  are  also  laid  down  for  the  deck 
planking,  and  four  lines  of  plates  run  throughout  the  entire  length,  with 
diagonal  bars  intersecting  them,  between  each  mast.  The  planking  below 
the  water-line  is  of  the  finest  American  elm  and  the  best  quality  of  teak. 
All  her  fastenings  are  of  the  first  order,  and  the  workmanship,  even  in  the 
least  prominent  sections  of  the  ship,  is  perfect.  She  is  coppered  and  copper- 
fastened.  There  is  a  p9op,  or  quarter-deck,  raised  3J  feet  above  the 
flush,  or  main  deck,  giving  8  feet  of  height  to  the  saloon,  which  extends 
about  forty-five  feet  from  the  stern,  where  there  is  a  covered  wheel-house, 
with  steering  apparatus  on  the  most  approved  principle  Lj  The  saloon  is 

o2 


304  MISSIONARY  MAGAZINE 

roomy  and  airy,  and  is  fitted  up  in  a  simple  yet  elegant  style.  There  are 
state  rooms  on  both  sides  of  tho  saloon,  with  three  double  berths  in  each,  well 
ventilated.  The  framework  of  the  state-room  doors  is  of  teak,  and  the  lower 
panels  of  maple,  both  highly  polished.  A  bookcase  will  occupy  a  large 
space  in  front  of  the  stern  cabins,  where  there  are  two  compartments,  and 
berths  for  children  as  well  as  adults.  The  tables  are  so  arranged  thst 
they  may  be  used  for  purposes  of  study  as  well  as  for  meals.  The  saloon 
is  lighted  from  above  by  skylights  of  stained  glass  with  appropriate  texts 
of  Scripture,  the  aspect  of  the  whole  being  light  and  cheerful.  It  is 
intended  for  European  missionaries.  In  the  middle  part  of  the  vessel 
there  are  three  berths,  immediately  before  the  break  of  the  i)oop,  the 
captain  occupying  one  cabin  and  the  mate  another,  while  the  steward's 
pantry  and  the  dispensary  are  in  the  centre.  Still  farther  forward  are  the 
"  'tween  "  decks,  a  cabin  for  native  teachers,  a  large  roomy  place,  with  bed- 
room accommodation  on  each  side  and  excellent  ventilation — a  most  important 
provision  in  those  warm  climates  where  the  "John  Williams"  will  he 
employed.  In  the  forecastle  there  is  ample  accommodation  for  the  crew,  and 
near  to  it  a  sail-room,  with  berths  for  carpenters  and  native  pilots  or  boatmen, 
which  are  often  required  when  the  ship  is  among  the  islands. 

The  ship  is  modelled  according  to  the  finest  lines  of  the  Aberdeen  clippers. 
Her  entrance  is  sharp,  and  her  run  very  clean ;  while  the  floor  is  long,  and  the 
sides  so  rounded  that  there  is  not  an  angular  point  about  the  hull.  There  can 
be  no  doubt  but  the  ship  will  work  her  way  under  any  circumstances,  where 
there  is  wind,  off  a  Ice-shorc,  and  will  be  easily  towed  in  a  calm.  The  main 
and  fore-mast  are  of  iron,  and,  having  openings  into  the  hold  and  at  the  top, 
they  form  ventilating  shafts — a  most  important  consideration  where  there  is 
cargo.  The  bow  is  ornamented  with  a  bust  of  John  Williams,  representing 
him  in  his  prime ;  and  underneath,  overlapping  the  neck  of  the  prow,  is  a 
carved  and  gilded  open  Bible,  with  the  motto  "  Peace  on  earth,  and  good  will 
to  men."  On  the  stem,  which  is  finely  rounded,  there  is  a  dove  with  the 
olive  branch,  and  the  scripture  "  Go  ye  into  all  the  world,"  &c.  The  ship  is 
barque-rigged,  with  all  her  standing  rigging  of  iron  wire,  and  has  a  very  light 
and  graceM  appearance. 

The  arrangements  made  for  the  launch  were  of  a  very  extensive  and  com- 
plete character.  The  builders  provided  excellent  accommodation  within  the 
yard  for  500  persons,  and  also  fitted  up  and  decorated  their  largest  drawing 
loft  to  accommodate  that  number,  who  were  invited  to  a  d^'euner  after  the 
launch.  Invitations  were  sent  to  the  Lord  Provost  and  magistrates,  the 
Town  Council,  the  Incorporated  Trades,  the  Ministers  of  all  denominations, 
the  Professors  of  the  Colleges,  &c.  The  Board  of  Directors  in  London  had 
appointed  George  Frederick  White,  Esq.,  the  Chairman;  Eev.  Dr.  Ferguson, 
the  Deputy-Chairman ;  Kev.  Dr.  George  Smith  ;  Rev.  John  Kennedy ;  Rev. 
J.  H.  Wilson  ;  Rev.  George  Gill,  late  of  the  South  Sea  Mission ;  J.  K.  Welch, 
Esq.,  Chairman  of  the  Building  Committee;  H.  W.  J^^MI,  Esq.,  Comptroller- 


FOR  NOVEMBER,    1865.  305 

General  of  her  Jllajesty's  Customs,  to  represent  the  Society,  and  they  invited 
the  Directors  in  Scotland  to  attend  the  launch. 

Being  huilt  chiefly  by  the  subscriptions  of  the  children  in  our  Sunday- 
schools,  the  local  committees  were  very  desirous  that  all  the  children  in  the 
schools  of  Aberdeen  should  walk  in  procession  to  the  launch.  A  meeting  of 
superintendents  was  held,  and  a  programme  of  proceedings  agreed  on.  Just 
opposite  to  the  building-yard  there  is  a  large  space  on  a  point  of  land  which 
there  divides  the  harbour  and  basin  from  the  river  Dee  ;  and  on  this  point  the 
children  were  to  muster.  To  facilitate  the  bringing  into  town  of  schools  from 
Huntly  and  other  places,  from  forty  to  fifty  miles  distant,  the  Directors  of 
the  Great  North  of  Scotland  Railway  charged  nearly  nominal  fares;  and  more 
than  300  children,  with  their  teachers,  came  to  town  in  this  way.  The 
magistrates  and  Commissioners  of  Police  readily  placed  the  service  of  as 
many  officers  at  the  disposal  of  the  Committee  as  were  required  to  keep 
order;  and  thus  everything  was  ready  for  the  occasion. 

On  the  Thursday  morning  the  weather  was  very  promising,  and  by  noon 
there  was  a  brilliant  day.  All  the  ships  in  the  dock  and  harbour  hoisted 
their  colours ;  and  even  the  captain  and  crew  of  a  new  Dutch  steamer  which 
lay  in  the  dock,  nearly  opposite  the  yard,  provided  accommodation  for  more 
than  a  hundred  ladies  on  the  ship's  deck.  Every  point  of  observation  was 
occupied;  the  tug-steamers  in  the  basin  were  loaded  with  people,  and 
altogether  the  scene  was  without  a  parallel  in  the  history  of  ship-launching 
in  Aberdeen. 

The  hour  fixed  for  the  launch  was  one  o'clock.  Precisely  at  the  time 
appointed,  Miss  Annette  Welch,  of  London,  daughter  of  Mr.  J.  K.  Welch, 
holding  a  bottle  of  wine  decorated  with  ribbons,  and  suspended  from  the 
bow  of  the  ship,  swung  it  at  the  vessel,  as  she  moved  down  the  weighs, 
and  called  her  the  "  John  Williams,"  and  added,  "  May  she  have  a  pros- 
perous voyage,  by  the  will  of  God."  The  ship  took  the  water  in  fine  style, 
and  drew  a  beautiful  water-line  as  she  sat  in  the  basin.  Captain  Williams, 
her  commander,  who  has  been  in  Aberdeen  during  the  summer,  says  she 
is  a  gem,  and  Lloyd's  surveyor,  Mr.  Wallace,  pronounces  the  ship  to  be  all 
the  Directors  could  desire  or  expect. 

Immediately  after  the  launch  the  party  in  the  building-yard  retired  to  the 
luncheon-room,  and  when  seated  at  the  tables  presented  a  very  cheering 
sight.  Mr.  James  Hall  occupied  the  chair,  and  Mr.  William  Hall  discharged 
th6  duties  of  vice-chairman. 

Among  the  company  present  were  the  members  of  the  deputation,  on  the  right 
and  left  of  the  chair ;  the  Earl  of  Kintore,  Lord  Lieutenant  of  the  county ; 
Captain  Williams,  of  the  '*  John  Williams;"  Mr.  Angus,  Town-Clerk;  3Ir.

At  the  request  of  the  Chairman,  the  company  joined  in  singing  the  hun-

The  Chaibman  said,  My  Lord,  Ladies,  and  Gentlemen,  I  now  ask  you,  as 
in  duty  bound,  to  drink  to  the  health  of  our  beloved  Queen.  To  her  we 
are  all  loyal  subjects  to  the  heart's  core,  and  we  all  fed  and  kiiow  the  influCTce 
for  good  which  her  Majesty  has  exercised,  from  the  highest  in  this  land, 
down  to  the  lowest  strata  of  society.  I  need  say  no  more,  except  to  add  that 
her  Majesty  has  expressed  her  sincere  and  earnest  interest  in  the  manj 
schemes  in  connection  with  the  London  Missionary  Society.  I  ask  yon  to 
drink  to  '*  Her  Majesty  the  Queen."    The  toast  was  dnmk  to  with  enthusiMnL 

The  Chaibman  :  I  ask  you  now  to  drink  to  "  The  Prince  and  Princees  of 
Wales."  May  they  profit  by  the  admirable  example  they  have  had  set  befiire 
them.  I  am  aware  that  the  Prince  of  Wales  has  also  expressed  great  intereei 
in  this  movement.     Long  life  to  the  Prince  and  Princess  of  Wales. 

The  Chaieman  then  said,  I  have  now  the  happiness  to  propose  "The  Lord- 
Lieutenant  of  the  County,"  who  has  done  us  the  honour  of  coming  here  to 
testify  his  sympathy  with  the  Mission  cause.  The  Right  Hon.  the  Earl  of 
Kintore,  Lord-Lieutenant  of  Aberdeenshire ;  his  good  health. 

Lord  Kintore,  who,  on  rising,  was  greeted  with  cheers,  swd,  I  can 
assure  you  it  has  given  me  very  great  pleasure  to  have  been  here  this  day. 
But  I  trust  that  the  one  spirit  that  will  pervade  us  all  this  day  will  be 
this,  that  we  come  here  with  the  manifest  intention  of  honouring  our  living: 
Head.  It  is  veiy  time  that  the  Lord  Jesus  Christ  does  not  want  patronage; 
but  he  wants  sympathy.  He  wants  to  call  poor  frail  creatures  such  as  we  are 
out  of  the  dust  by  nature,  and  set  us  among  princes,  to  put  our  foot  upon 
the  rock,  and  enable  us  to  sing  the  new  song  of  the  Lord.  This  should  be  a 
praising  day  in  our  history.  Li  returning  from  such  a  sight  as  we  hare 
beheld  this  day — the  laimch  of  yon  noble  vessel,  shortly  to  depart  upon  her 
career  of  love  and  mercy — do  you  not  think  that  our  language  should  be  jiist 
this,  "What  shall  we  render  unto  the  Lord  for  all  his  goodness  unto  ub?" 
We  will  take  the  cup  of  salvation  into  oui*  hand,  and  call  upon  the  name  of 
the  Lord ;  wishing  that,  as  the  vessel  speeds  her  distant  path,  she  may  cany 
the  message  of  mercy  to  ^any  and  many  a  poor  lost  one ;  that  by  (Jod's  grace 
it  may  be  said  of  them,  as  well  as  of  others,  "  That  which  was  lost  is  fiwmd."

I  thank  yon,  ladies  and  gentlemen,  for  the  honour  jou  have  done  me  this 
day ;  but  let  us  all  thank  Gk>d  more  that  He  has  given  us  the  blessed  privilege 
of  joining  in  such  labours  as  this ;  that  we  have  a  missionary  spirit  among 
us,  and  the  peace  of  Gk>d  in  our  hearts.  And  when  we  see  yon  vessel  depart 
upon  her  missionary  tour,  may  we  say  in  deed  and  in  truth, "  The  Gk>d  of  peace 
be  with  her :  may  she  be  ever  under  the  protection  and  guidance  of  Him  who 
is  King  of  kings  and  Lord  of  lords." 

The  Chaibman  :  I  have  now  to  give,  "  The  Lord  Provost,  Magistrates,  and 
Town  Council  of  Aberdeen."  They  are  always  ready  to  encourage  progress, 
and  thus  to  help  us  to  go  ahead  to  reach  something  we  have  not  attained 
before.  I  beg  you  will  drink  long  life  and  health  to  the  Lord  Provost,  Magis- 
trates, and  Council  of  Aberdeen. 

Councillor  Matthews  :  I  little  expected  to  have  the  honour  of  being  called 
upon  to  reply  to  this  toast.  However,  as  representing  the  municipal  body, 
here  let  me  say  that,  as  a  body,  I  feel  we  ought  to  be  very  proud  to  see  such 
a  meeting  as  this  held  in  Aberdeen — to  see  such  a  vessel  as  was  laimched  to- 
day built  in  Aberdeen.  I  think  it  does  honour  alike  to  our  shipbuilders 
and  to  the  city  we  inhabit.  I  have  very  great  pleasure  in  returning  thanks 
for  the  Lord  Provost,  Magistrates,  and  Council  of  the  city. 

The  Chaibmak  :  Ladies  and  Gentlemen,  I  ask  you  now  to  drink  to  the 
health  of  Mr.  H.  W.  Dobell,  Comptroller-General  of  her  Majesty's  Customs 
in  London,  one  of  the  deputation  here  from  ,the  London  Missionary  Society. 
As  he  is  a  stranger,  I  am  sure  you  will  give  him  a  hearty  welcome  to  Bon- 
Accord. 

Mr.  Dobell  :  My  Lord,  Ladies,  and  Grentlemen,  I  return  you  my  veiy 
hearty  thanks  for  the  manner  in  which  you  have  responded  to  the  toast  given 
by  your  kind  and  generous  Chairman.  It  has  afforded  me  great  pleasure  to 
be  here  to-day ;  and  I  may  say,  without  fear  of  overstating  the  fact,  that  I 
never  was  present  on  a  more  joyous  occasion  in  all  my  life.  To  see  the  vast 
multitude  of  children  on  the  opposite  bank,  to  see  that  vast  gathering  of 
friends  of  all  denominations,  to  see  that  beautiful  vessel  as  she  dipped  into 
the  water,  to  know  that  she  then  took  the  first  step  towards  that  glorious 
enterpise  upon  which  she  now  enters — to  see  and  know  all  that  filled  my 
breast  with  a  thrill  that  made  me  lift  up  my  heart  in  adoring  gratitude  to 
Almighty  God,  that  He  had  ever  brought  me  to  know  and  appreciate  the  great 
blessings  of  salvation  by  Jesus  Chiist.  If  one  might  judge  by  appearances, 
the  joy  that  lit  up  every  countenance  around  gave  token  that  the  same 
feeling  animated  the  breasts  of  all  present,  as  I  am  sure  it  animates  the 
breasts  of  our  kind  friends  who  have  built  this  vessel,  and  who  have  spared 
no  pains,  no  cost,  no  trouble,  in  order  that  she  may  be  sent  up  to  London  aa 
a  fine  specimen  of  what  Aberdeen  can  turn  out,  and  as  a  proof  of  its  love  for, 
and  attachment  to,  the  great  cause  of  Christian  Missions.  Mr.  Dobell,  in 
continuation,  proposed  "  Success  to  the  Trade  of  Aberdeen."  He  knew  some- 
thing of  the  trade  of  Aberdeen  from  his  o£&cial  position ;  but  he  would  not 
quote  statistics  on  the  subject,  aa  these,  without  explanation,  would  tend, 
perhaps,  more  to  perplex  than  anything  else.  Without  going  into  figures, 
then,  he  woidd  merely  say  that,  from  o£&cial  records,  it  was  seen  that  the 
trade  of  Aberdeen  was  never — ^not  only  not  in  a  more  prosperous  state — ^but 


308  MISSIONARY  MAGAZINB 

never  in  so  prosperous  a  state  as  at  the  present  moment.  And  lie  was  not 
surprised  at  this  when  he  walked  about,  as  he  had  done  that  morning,  and 
saw  the  broad  streets,  and  beautiful  houses,  and  other  advantages  oondnche 
to  habits  of  cleanliness  and  prosperity.  He  had  read  in  the  papers  that  at 
present  there  are  in  the  building-yards  of  the  port  no  less  than  15,000  toiu 
of  shipping  upon  the  stocks ;  and  he  was  not  surpiised  at  this  when  among  the 
shipbuilders  are  such  names  as  those  of  Hall,  Duthie,  Hood,  and  others,  who 
send  forth  to  the  wide  ocean  and  the  various  quarters  of  the  world  a  dasa  d 
ships  unsurpassed  anywhere.  The  Aberdeen  clippers  beat  everything  sent 
from  any  shipbuilding-yard  in  the  kingdom,  almost.  When  we  have  men  of 
such  enterprise,  with  indomitable  perseverance,  that  takes  no  refusal,  and 
rejects  failure  altogether,  who  adhere  to  the  simple  motto  **  Success"— or 
nothing^-we  are  able  to  see  why  the  trade  of  Aberdeen  should  be  more 
successful  than  at  any  former  period.  May  Aberdeen  prosper  in  all  her 
undertakings,  and  more  especially  in  such  undertakings  as  that  of  this  daj, 
in  which  we  can  all  so  thoroughly  sympathize.  I  understand  we  have  been 
honoured  this  day  with  the  presence  of  Mr.  Thompson,  of  Pitmedden, 
formerly  Lord  Provost  and  M.P.  for  the  city ;  and  I  think  if  one  thing  is 
gratifying  more  than  another  in  connection  with  our  proceedings,  it  is  the 
fact  of  seeing  gentlemen  so  prominent  in  connection  with  trade  and  conuneite 
in  this  city  and  elsewhere  as  Mr.  Thompson  is  identifying  themselves  with  a 
cause  like  this.  I  read  in  that  fact  this  principle,  that  we  associate  the  spread 
of  the  Gospel  with  the  civilization  of  the  world  and  the  success  of  commerce. 
Shut  out  the  Gospel,  and  what  becomes  of  your  civilization — what  becomes 
of  your  commerce  P  And  so  it  was  that,  when  John  "Williams  came  home 
from  his  visit  to  the  South  Sea  Islands,  the  Corporation  of  the  City  of 
London  waa  so  impressed  with  the  value  of  the  great  missionary's  effoHa 
there,  and  their  influence  in  spreading  not  only  the  blessings  of  civilization, 
but  also  in  extending  and  opening  up  channels  for  the  trade  and  commerce  of 
this  country,  that  they,  with  unanimous  voice  and  heart,  voted  him  £500 ;  and 
when  we  see  such  men  as  Mr.  Thompson  coming  down  to  see  the  launch  of 
a  simple  missionary  ship,  it  is  highly  interesting  and  gratifying.  It  is  no 
honour  to  Christ,  but  it  is  a  duty  paid  to  Him,  and  a  token  of  love  and  attach- 
ment to  Him ;  and  as  such  we  value  it.  I  ask  you  to  drink  "  Success  to  the 
Trade  of  Aberdeen,  coupled  with  Mr.  Thompson,  of  Pitmedden,  ex-IVovoat 
of  the  City.*' 

Mr.  Thompson  replied  with  great  pleasure  to  the  toast  so  eloqaently 
proposed.  He  said,  We  do  not  require  to  be  told  of  the  fact  by  gentlemen 
from  a  distance  to  know  of  the  prosperity  of  the  ti*ade  of  Aberdeen ;  yet  it 
is  highly  satisfactory  when  a  gentleman  connected  with  the  official  statiatica 
of  the  country  is  able  to  assure  us  that  at  no  other  period  was  it  at  all  ao 
prosperous.  I  am  delighted  at  this  prospeiity,  as  dwelling  among  those 
master  minds  and  industrious  hands  who  ai*e  pi*oducing  the  wealth  of  the 
country,  and  not  only  so,  but  manufacturing  those  magnificent  ships  which 
will  carry  our  commerce  to  the  most  distant  paits  of  the  world.  And  that 
being  the  case,  it  is  extremely  gratifying  to  see  such  a  company  assembled 
here.  That  company  is  not  associated  upon  the  mere  principles  of  commerce. 
Far  otherwise :  the  principles  of  commerce  would  not  have  called  together 


FOR  NOVEMBER,    1865.  309 

eraob  an  assemblage.  Far  higher  principles  have  brought  this  multitude 
together.  It  has  been  a  glorious  day  for  Aberdeen.  Never  have  I  witnessed 
such  an  out-turn  of  juveniles  as  we  have  seen  to-day.  And  what  is  this  an 
indication  of,  sir  ?  It  is  an  indication,  to  my  mind,  that  the  commerce  of  the 
coTintry  is  beginning  to  be  intertwined  with  the  higher  principles  of  man's 
nature;  that  we  will  carry  along  with  our  commerce  civilization  and 
CliriBtianity  to  the  heart  of  our  common  race.  But,  in  doing  justice  to  the 
present  time,  we  must  not  forget  that  there  was  "  a  day  of  small  things ;" 
and,  though  it  may  have  been  small,  yet  there  is  some  credit  justly  due  to  it. 
I  am  old  enough  now  to  recollect  when  the  father  of  the  gentleman  who  now 
fills  the  chair  so  worthily  was  the  means  of  tui*ning  out  all  the  inhabitants 
of  Aberdeen  to  witness  another  launch.  And  if  it  would  not  be  deemed 
egotistical,  I  may  say  that  I  had  some  small  hand,  thii*ty  years  ago  this  very 
month,  in  sending  abroad  to  the  South  Seas  several  of  those  devoted  men  and 
their  wives  who  gave  themselves  to  the  propagation  of  Christianity,  and  the 
endurance  of  great  privations  for  its  sake.  And,  very  singularly,  within  200 
yards  of  the  spot  where  the  "  John  Williams  "  has  descended  to  the  water,  this 
vessel  of  which  I  speak  was  launched  thirty  yeai-s  ago.  Ton  will  see  that  the 
present  generation  is  only  following  up  that  which  has  gone  before.  I  trust, 
sir,  that  this  meeting  will  give  an  impulse  not  only  to  oui*  commercial  pursuits, 
but,  what  is  of  far  higher  importance,  to  the  Christianity  and  civilization  of 
our  common  country. 

Rev.  Dr.  Geobqe  Smith,  Poplar :  I  have  had  the  peculiar  honour  unex- 
-pectedlj  conferred  upon  me  of  being  invited  to  come  to  Aberdeen  and  take 
part  in  the  memorable  proceedings  of  to-day.  The  occasion  of  my  being  here 
is  a  somewhat  mournful  one.  Our  beloved  and  honoured  Mend  Dr.  Tidman, 
the  excellent  Secretary  of  the  London  Missionary  Society,  from  whom  it 
would  have  come  so  appropriately,  and  so  much  more  eloquently  than  I  can 
give  it,  was  to  have  proposed  this  sentiment.  And  you  will  agree  with  me  in 
deeply  regretting  the  cause  of  his  absence  when  I  state  the  fact  that  sevei'e 
domestic  affliction  put3  it  entirely  out  of  his  power  to  be  here.  In  these  cir- 
cumstances the  Directors  appealed  to  me  to  supply  his  lack  of  service,  and  I 
had  Tciy  great  pleasure  in  agreeing  to  their  request.  The  beloved  friend 
whom  I  here  represent  is  one  of  the  oldest  friends  I  have  on  earth.  During 
the  whole  of  my  public  life  I  have  been  a  warm  friend  of  the  London  Missionaiy 
Society,  and  for  nearly  thirty  years  one  of  its  Dii*ectors.  Then  the  captain  of 
the  "  John  Williams  "  and  his  beloved  wife  ai*e  members  of  my  church  and 
congregation,  as  were  also  Captain  and  Mrs.  Morgan,  formerly  of  the  "  John 
"Williams."  And  living,  as  I  do,  in  a  great  shipping  community  in  the  i>ort 
of  London,  I  could  not  fail  to  take  a  deep  interest  in  the  launch  of  this 
beauti^  vessel.  Many  thoughts  passed  through  my  mind  as  I  stood  and 
looked  at  that  ship.  I  could  not  help  thinking  how  greatly  the  world  has 
been  indebted  to  the  craft  of  shipbuilding.  The  priesthood  of  formei* 
days  looked  at  the  employment  of  the  seafaring  man  as  a  very  con- 
temptible one;  yet,  in  all  former  ages,  it  may  be  truly  said,  that  while 
there  was  death  upon  the  land,  there  has  been  life  upon  the  waters,  and 
in  all  nations  the  pioneers  of  maritime  commerce  have  been  the  g^reatest 
benefactoi's  ol  the  human  race.    And  I  rejoice  that  the  art  of  shipbuilding 

o  3 


310  MISSTONABY  MAGAZINE 

has  advanced  from  its  ruder  stages  till  it  has  readied  the  perfection  we  see  in 
the  beantiftil  model  of  the  "  John  Williams  "  (a  model  exhibited  in  the  oeniie 
of  the  banquet-hall)  now  before  us.  I  have  had  great  pleasure  in  going  cms 
the  ship  and  inspecting  her,  accompanied  by  my  friend  Captain  "Williama.  I 
am  told  that  from  stem  to  stem,  from  keel  to  topmast,  she  is  as  beaniafbl  s 
specimen  of  what  a  ship  should  be  as  could  be  produced — ^nothing  inferiof, 
nothing  defective  about  her,  but  everything  sound  and  beautiful ;  so  that  tibe 
man  who  puts  his  foot  on  her  deck  may  know  that  he  has  a  noble  thing  d 
life  under  his  feet  that,  with  Grod's  blessing,  will  waft  him  in  safety  across  tiie 
deep.  There  are  frequent  occasions  of  ship-launch,  and  for  different  ends: 
one  is  launched  to  go  out  as  a  pirate,  to  rob  and  murder;  another  as  a  man- 
of-war,  to  shed  blood ;  but  this  noble  ship  goes  out  to  proclaim  "  glory  to  God 
in  the  highest ;  on  earth  peace,  and  good  will  to  men."  She  wiU  never  fire  a 
gun,  except  it  may  be  one  in  distress ;  and  we  heartily  wish  she  may  ncf «r 
have  occasion  to  do  that.  Ships  have  gone  out  in  pursuit  of  commerce,  to 
search  for  the  treasures  of  the  deep,  while  others  seek  for  the  gold  of  Oalifonui, 
the  cotton  of  America,  or  the  wool  of  Australia :  this  one  goes  out  in  the  ^mt 
of  our  Master,  not  to  destroy  men's  Uves,  but  to  save  them.  The  little  bark  of 
Columbus  and  his  companions  was  rigged  out  for  the  purpose  of  discovennga 
world :  this  goes  out  for  the  purpose  of  regenerating  a  world.  Tou  have  heaid 
to-day  of  progress — everything  advancing — and  you  cannot  help  feding  hoff 
everything  is  advancing  in  connection  with  the  missionary  enterprise.  Going 
back  to  the  time  when  the  missionary  ship  "  Duff"  was  launched,  we  were  at 
that  time  at  war  with  France :  now,  happily,  we  are  in  amity  with  that  great 
people.  At  that  time  we  were  in  danger  of  the  cruisers  of  other  natiau 
seizing  our  vessels :  now  our  Ships  can  go  out  in  perfect  tranquillity  to  parsBe 
their  peaceful  errands.  The  ships  this  Society  has  already  had  since  tiK 
"Duff"  have  been  the  "  Haweis,"  the  "Endeavour,"  the  "Harmony,"  and 
the  "  John  Williams ;"  and  I  am  glad  that  this  name  is  to  be  perpetuated.  B 
is  a  name  engraven  upon  the  hearts  of  many  in  this  land  and  in  the  ftr-d 
isles  of  the  sea;  and  we  wish  to  hand  it  down  to  our  children,  and  oor 
children's  children,  to  excite  their  emulation,  and  stimulate  them  to  endearoar 
to  follow  in  the  footsteps  of  the  great  and  good  who  have  gone  before.  Ih*'® 
to  propose,  on  behalf  of  the  gentlemen  who  have  conducted  the  affairs  of  this 
meeting,  "Success  to  the  'John  Williams,*"  and  to  that  a  sentiment  i^chyoa 
will  be  delighted  to  respond  to :  "  and  Success  to  the  Children  who  have  paid 
for  her."  A  beautiful  thing  it  is  that  she  goes  out  free  of  debt.  Some  sh^ 
go  out  deeply  mortgaged,  so  that  it  would  take  their  owner's  entire  mesuB  to 
relieve  them.  Our  ship  is  paid  for,  not  by  a  compulsory  rate,  not  by  appeal- 
ing to  the  national  treasury  in  forma  pauperis.  Though  thankful  for  her 
Majesty's  patronage,  we  do  not  wish  her  Majesty's  Government  to  suppwt 
our  Mission  and  relieve  us  of  our  work.  It  has  all  been  done  by  the  free-will 
offerings  of  our  people,  and  the  most  interesting  part  of  our  people — the  dear 
children— who  collected  between  £11,000  and  £12,000  to  pay  for  the** John 
Williams."  May  they,  who  will  form  the  men  and  women  of  a  future  geoefa* 
tion  when  we  have  departed,  be  kept  and  guided  to  act  a  correspondingly  wory»j 
part  hereafter ;  and  may  the  worthy  captain  of  the  noble  ship,  and  his  bdowd 
wife,  be  long  spared  to  go  out  with  our  missionaries,  to  carry  out  BibleB  and 


FOB  NOVEBtBBR,    1865.  311 

religious  tracts,  and  to  conyej  liyuig  missionaries  from  one  island  to  another, 
even  nntil  many  in  these  far-off  islands  shall  hare  cause  to  saj,  ''How 
beaatifhl  upon  the  moimtain  wares  are  the  feet  of  him  that  publisheth 
peace  and  bringeth  good  tidings  of  good !" 

Bev.  David  Abthub  acknowledged  the  toast.  He  said,  I  have  the  honour 
to  rise  to  return  thanks  on  behalf  of  the  children  who  have  been  so  kindly 
remembered  on  this  occasion ;  and  well  may  we  remember  them.  I  believe 
there  is  no  other  country  under  the  sun  that  could  have  presented  such  a 
spectacle  as  we  have  seen  to-day  in  Aberdeen.  I  have  read  of  the  ladies  of  a 
great  capital  presenting  to  their  sovereign  a  powerful  war- vessel  to  aid  in  a  great 
national  conflict.  And,  though  that  vessel  was  to  be  used  against  our  own 
country,  I  must  say  I  could  respect  the  patriotism  of  such  a  deed.  But  here 
is  a  vessel,  not  for  purposes  of  war,  not  even  for  objects  of  commerce  or  gain, 
but  to  cariy  the  message  of  peace  to  the  ends  of  the  earth  to  proclaim  good 
will  among  men.  I  am  of  opinion  that  the  Directors  could  never  have  adopted 
a  wiser  course,  or  a  plan  more  conducive  to  the  interests  of  our  common  faith, 
than  the  plan  of  sending  forth  among  the  islands  of  the  South  Seas  a  vessel 
which  should  be  used  in  visiting  them  from  time  to  time,  in  carrying  mission- 
aries with  the  glad  tidings  of  peace  from  the  one  to  the  other,  showing  them 
how  they  are  united  with  the  great  heart  and  centre  here  at  home,  showing  to 
these  islands  the  love  we  bear  to  those  who  are  our  brethren,  even  to  the  ends 
of  the  earth.  It  is  a  proper  thing  that  it  should  go  forth  to  the  world  as  part 
of  the  proceedings  of  this  meeting  that  the  London  Missionary  Society  are  not 
forgetful  of  the  aid  they  have  received  from  the  Sabbath-school  children  of 
Ghreat  Britain  and  Ireland.  Nay,  it  was  an  interesting  fact  that  the  first 
ccmtributions  for  the  present  ship  were  made  by  the  children  of  the  island  on 
which  the  last  "  John  Williams  "  was  lost.  And,  I  may  add  that,  had  that 
wreck  taken  place  only  a  few  years  ago,  every  soul  on  board  would  have 
perished,  because  at  'that  time  the  natives  considered  it  their  duty  to  kill  their 
enemies,  and  their  privilege  to  eat  them.  Instead  of  that,  Captain  Williams 
and  his  companions  were  received  with  kindness,  and  had  every  care  taken  of 
them.  Let  our  commercial  men  look  at  this  fact,  and  they  must  see  that  this 
great  enterprise  is  not  only  a  question  of  Christianity,  but  a  question  of 
commerce  and  of  civilization.  I  am  glad,  sir,  that  a  report  of  these  pro- 
.eeedings  will  go  out  to  the  world,  and  that  it  will  be  seen  that,  while  engaged 
in  this  joyous  celebration,  we  did  not  forget  the  children,  but  remembered 
them  kindly  and  gratefally.  The  best  wish  we  can  cherish  for  them  is  that 
all  of  them  may  be  led  to  give  themselves  to  Christ,  that  when  they  rise  up 
to  meet  this  life's  trials  and  difficulties  to  become  the  heads  of  families,  they 
may  continue  to  be  animated  by  one  and  the  same  spirit — love  to  Christ  and 
His  cause — carrying  down  blessings  on  their  children  and  children's  children. 

The  Chaibman:  I  ask  you  now  to  drink  to  "  The  Directors  of  the  London 
Missionary  Society,  and  their  Chairman  G^rge  f .  White,  Esq."  It  is  not 
customary  in  launching  ships  to  have  meetings  of  such  a  formal  kind  as  this ; 
but  the  sympathy  in  the  object  of  the  "  John  Williams"  was  so  universal  and 
so  strong  throughout  the  land,  that  it  has  produced  the  gathering  we  now  see 
here ;  and  the  desire  was  that  at  this,  one  of  the  centres  of  shipping  and  com- 
merce, we  should  wish  success  to  the  London  Missionary  Society. 


312  MISSIONABT  MAGAZINE 

Mr.  White:  Dr.  Smith  regretted  the  absence  to-day  of  our  excellent  Sow- 
tarj  Dr.  Tidman,  the  father,  I  maj  almost  say,  of  this  Society,  on  account  of 
his  not  being  able  to  witness  what  we  all  witnessed  to-day.  I  have  an  aM- 
tional  reason  for  regretting  his  absence,  because  I  would  have  endeaTonredto 
cast  upon  him  the  duty  of  replying  to  this  toast.  The  ceremony  we  hare  wit- 
nessed  to-day  would,  under  any  circumstances,  have  been  worth  a  journey  to 
Aberdeen  to  see;  and  if  I  were  to  take  any  exception  to  the  proceedings  at  aD, 
it  would  be  that  in  a  shipbuilding  port  such  as  this  nothing  has  been  ssadd 
the  navy — the  British  Navy,  our  best  security  when  surrounded  by  powaW 
enemies,  and  which,  I  trust,  will  never  again  be  used  but  as  a  defence;  and 
our  mercantile  marine,  by  which  our  commerce,  and  our  Christianity  too,  are 
carried  to  all  quarters  of  the  world.  We,  as  a  Society,  have  now  for  the  sevcntli 
time  a  ship,  upon  which  I  am  very  sure  we  all  look  with  pride.  Long  may  she 
go  forth  bearing  the  soldiers  of  the  Cross  and  the  Word  of  God  to  the  distant 
isles  of  the  southern  seas,  where  for  a  long  time  Satan  had  undistm*bed  domi- 
nion, but  where,  thanks  to  our  missionaries,  under  the  blessing  of  God,  they 
have  become  in  a  'great  measure  the  kingdom  of  our  Gk)d  and  of  his  Christ 
I  have  now  a  toast  to  propose,  which  from  Aberdonians  will  meet  with  the 
greatost'acceptance :  **  Success  to  the  Brothers  Hall."  When  the  Directors  had 
recovered  the  shock  they  felt  at  hearing  of  the  loss  of  the  former  "  John  Wil- 
liams," three  considerations  occupied  their  minds :  first,  whether  we  should  hare 
another  ship ;  second,  how  we  should  raise  the  funds  for  it ;  and  thirdly,  "who 
should  build  it.  It  did  not  take  long  to  solve  the  first  two  questions.  Ma 
the  experience  we  had  had,  we  felt  we  must  have  another  ship,  and  we  had 
great  confidence  that  the  children  and  young  friends  of  the  Society  wodd 
provide  the  means.  As  to  the  third  question,  in  justice  to  our  constituents, 
we  felt  it  necessary  to  put  the  matter  to  competition,  and  among  the  tenders 
received  the  most  acceptable  was  that  of  the  Messrs.  Hall.  As  an  Engiidi* 
man,  it  would  be  affectation  to  say  that  I  would  not  have  been  perfect 
satisfied  had  an  English  firm  got  it ;  but  when  it  was  put  in  the  hands  d 
Scotchmen  we  felt  perfectly  assured  that  Messrs.  Hall  would  support  thdr 
own  reputation  and  that  of  the  town,  and  that,  moreover,  it  would  be  alahoar 
of  love.  Mi\  White  concluded  by  giving  the  toast,  which  was  heartily  drunk 
to. 

The  Chairman,  in  acknowledging  the  toast,  said.  Had  this  been  a  ship  ^ 
common  purposes,  the  launch  would  have  gone  off,  and  perhaps  nine-teath* 
of  the  present  company  would  not  have  known  that  such  a  ship  was  built  I 
beg  to  say  the  ship  herself  is  nothing  more  than  what  any  good  Aberdeen 
ship  is ;  therefore  it  is  only  to  the  sentiment  connected  with  it  that  we  are 
indebted  for  your  presence.  It  certainly  did  not  occur  to  us  when  we  entered 
into  this  contract  that  this  would  be  the  final  result.  We  have  been  tdd  to-daj 
about  "  the  day  of  small  things,"  and  we  really  thought  that  this  was  a  small 
ship.  But  now,  when  it  has  come  to  the  conclusion,  the  mustard-seed  has 
grown  a  great  tree ;  and  certainly  my  brother  and  myself  are  exceedingjy 
gratified  by  your  attending  here  to-day  to  do  honour  to  the  cause  of  ^« 
Missionary  Society,  and  to  ourselves  who  are  their  servants.  In  my  boainesi 
transactions  I  have  noticed  one  thing,  that,  when  all  goes  finely,  fiufi  ^ 
smooth,  wc  must  take  care  in  the  hinder  end  thfiF'fe'd&^iifching  docs  nothipp« 


FOR   NOVEMBER,   1865.  313 

to  make  it  otherwise.  That  has  been  the  case  here.  1  take  leave  to  saj  that 
-we  have  neyer  had  more  pleasure  in  executing  a  contract  than  we  have  had ; 
therefore  we  took  double  care  in  coming  to  the  end  to  see  that  the  thing  went 
rig^ht.  And  if  after  your  assembling  here  to-day  you  all  go  away  pleased, 
that  will  be  the  crowning  stone  of  the  whole.  I,  for  one,  have  great  faith  in 
g^ood  wishes.  Wq  have  been  here  a  long  time,  and  it  is  gratifying  to  think 
that  we  do  nothing  by  ourselves :  our  neighbours  are  here,  the  same  as  our- 
selves, expressing  their  good  wishes  for  the  cause  you  are  celebrating.  I 
thank  you  most  cordially,  and  again  beseech  you  to  beHeve  that  there  is 
nothing  in  the  ship  more  than  in  any  other  ship  that  goes  from  Aberdeen, 
except  the  halo  that  surroimds  her  and  the  errand  that  she  is  going  upon.  1 
think  myself  that  the  young  fellow  ^ho  launched  the  ship  (Mr.  WiUiam  Hall, 
jnn.)  is  one  of  the  fourth  generation  of  carpenters  in  our  yard.  We  are  in 
the  way  of  classing  our  ships,  but  it  did  not  occur  to  me  till  I  looked  at  the 
fellow  that  he  was  number  four.  He  was  specially  requested  by  Captain 
Williams,  no  doubt,  as  an  honour  to  himself,  as  indeed  it  was ;  and,  as  he  is 
here,  I  expect  he  will  stand  up  and  thank  Captain  WiUiams  for  giving  him 
the  honour  of  laimching  what  we  have  all  along  called  "  The  Missionary." 

Mr.  John  Jamiesok  begged  to  call  first  for  a  special  toast  to  the  young 
builder  who  launched  "  The  Missionary."    This  was  heartily  responded  to. 

Mr.  William  Hall,  jun.,  said,  I  am  very  much  obliged  to  you  all  for 
drinking  my  health,  and  more  particularly  to  Captain  Williams  for  asking  me 
to  have  anything  to  do  with  the  launching  of  his  ship.  I  consider  it  an 
honour  to  have  been  asked  to  launch  the  "  John  Williams,"  even  though  as  a 
ship  she  is  no  better,  as  you  have  been  told,  than  any  other  Aberdeen  ship. 

The  Vice-Chaieman  :  I  have  to  propose  as  a  toast,  "  The  Building  Com- 
mittee of  the  London  Missionary  Society,  and  Mi\  Welch."  We  have  found 
the  greatest  pleasure  and  satisfaction  in  dealing  with  the  Society  and  their 
agent  Captain  Williams,  who  has  been  with  us  all  along,  planning  the  best 
means  of  carrying  out  his  views.  And  it  is  very  gratifying  to  us  that,  so  far 
as  we  can  see,  we  have  been  able  to  caiTy  out  the  views  of  the  Society.  "  The 
Building  Committee,  and  Mr.  Welch,"  who  has  taken  the  most  active  part  in 
its  arrangements. 

Mr.  Welch,  in  replying  to  the  toast,  after  observing  that  his  duties  as  a 
member  of  the  Building  Committee  had  been  easy  and  pleasant  indeed, 
referred  to  the  loss  of  the  former  "  John  Williams,"  and  the  suggestion  made 
by  their  friends  in  Sydney  that  her  place  should  be  supplied  by  a  steamer. 
After  fall  consideration  and  the  best  practical  advice  they  could  get,  it  was 
decided  to  be  unwise  to  have  steam  for  the  peculiar  service  required  of  the 
missionary  ship.  In  estimating  for  the  new  ship,  tenders  were  got  from  eight 
or  ten  builders,  in  England  and  Scotland,  and  one  in  Wales,  of  the  highest 
standing.  Messrs.  Hall's  was  accepted  as  the  lowest;  and,  in  looking  to  the 
figures,  he  felt  satisfied  the  price  was  put  down  without  reference  to  profit. 
But,  though  the  ship  had  been  built  regardless  of  profit,  they  have  finished 
her  in  a  way  far  beyond  their  contract.  I  can  say  there  are  many  things  in 
the  ship  which  I  am  quite  sure  ai'o  not  in  the  specific  terms ;  and  I  am  equally 
sure  that  not  one  thing  specified  is  not  in  the  ship.  Mr.  Welch,  in  conclusion, 
gave  "  The  Surveyors,"  Messrs.  Bay  ley.  Walker,  Ray  den,  and  Wallace. 


314  lOSStONARY  MAOAZINX 

Mr.  Batlet,  in  aoknawledgmg,  said.  As  a  practical  man,  I  my  I  nefv 
saw  a  ship  better  finished  or  better  tamed  oat  of  hand  than  the  "Job 
Williams."  I  am  not  now  officially  connected  with  Lloyd's,  but  I  hope  the 
Committee  there  will  do  as  it  did  apon  two  former  similar  occasioiis,  and 
remit  the  official  fees  apon  the  vessel. 

Mr.  Wallace,  Lloyd's  sarveyor  at  Aberdeen,  said,  I  have  had  the  honour  of 
being  sarveyor  of  this  ship.  I  have  seen  her  from  the  time  the  keel  was  laid 
until  this  day,  and  I  may  state  that  the  ship  is  ererything  that  the  Qoadf 
coald  wish  or  expect. 

The  OiiAiBMAN  gave  "  Miss  Annette  Kemp  Welch,"  who  christened  tbe 
"  John  Williams." 

The  Chaibbian  proposed  "  The  Health  of  Captain  Williams."  They  were 
much  indebted  to  the  Committee  for  sending  Captain  Williams  on  sack  a 
mission — to  see  to  the  bailding  of  the  yessel.  Captain  Williams  was  tbere 
to  answer  for  himself,  and  no  doabt  would  do  so.  They  woold,  therefinre, 
drink  to  Captain  WiUiams  and  his  good  lady,  and  saccess  to  them  when  tbej 
go  oat  with  the  vessel. 

Captain  Willlois,  in  reply,  said,  from  the  first  time  he  came  down  to 
Aberdeen  to,  this  day  he  had  received  nothing  bat  kindness  from  Meesn. 
Hall,  and  everything  he  had  suggested  they  had  done  with  the  greatest 
readiness. 

Mr.  John  Jamieson  gave  "The  Workmen  in  Messrs.  Hall's  Boildrng- 
yard,"  who  had  built  the  "  John  Williams." 

The  toast  having  been  drunk  to  cordially — 

Mr.  White  mentioned  that  the  Directors  of  the  London  Missionaij 
Society,  in  remembrance  of  the  workmen,  had  given  £25  to  the  Sick  Fond. 

The  Earl  of  Kintobe,  in  a  few  fitting  words  expressive  of  the  advantages 
of  ministers  and  laymen  of  different  denominations  meeting  together,  thni 
preventing  them  from  attaching  too  great  importance  to  their  denominational 
peculiarities,  proposed  "  The  Clergy  of  all  Denominations,"  coupled  wifch  tbe 
name  of  Dr.  D.  Brown. 

Dr.  Bbown  acknowledged.  As  the  proceedings  had  now  extended  over  i 
considerable  length  of  time,  he  would  content  himself  with  a  single  senteaoe 
or  two.  The  triumphs  of  Christianity  in  the  South  Seas,  he  said,  oonstitatfid 
the  most  glorious  chapter  of  Church  history  since  the  days  of  the  apoetki, 
and  the  London  Missionary  Society  had  been  the  gpreatest  benefactor  of  oor 
race,  in  that  respect,  of  any  missionary  institution  in  the  world.  Borne  of 
his  own  earliest  and  most  touching  recollections  were  connected  with  tfe 
visits  of  deputations  from  the  Society  to  this  city,  now  a  good  many  yean 
ago,  and  to  these  he  traced  the  first  kindlings  of  a  missionary  spirit  withis 
him.  He  trusted  the  launch  of  this  ship  might  be  the  conunenc^noit  d 
a  new  era  in  the  history  of  this  great  Society. 

The  Brcv.  Gbobge  Gill,  on  being  called  on,  said  he  was  an  old  nussionaij. 
He  had  gone  out  to  the  South  Seas,  and  lived  and  laboured  there  for  sixteen 
years.  He  was  one  of  the  first  missionaries  who  sailed  with  the  old  *'  John 
Williams,"  and  he  had  come  home  with  her  in  her  last  voyage  in  1860.  He 
had  been  intimately  acquainted  with  the  good  and  sainted  Captain  M<Hrgan, 
who  formerly  commanded  that  ship,  as  well  as  with  Captain  WiUiams. 


POR  NOVEMBER,   1865.  815 

-  Se  was  quite  sore  that  the  confidence  of  the  Directors  would  nerer  be  mis- 
placed in  Captain  Williams.  Captain  Morgan  was  a  good  man,  a  Christian- 
lilre  gentleman,  and  a  yery  mild  man.  Captain  Williams  is  a  man  of  equally 
g^ood  spirit,  bnt,  I  would  also  say,  of  superior  nautical  knowledge ;  a  calm, 
cool,  calculating  man,  who  knows  all  about  the  "  Nautical  Almanack."  He 
tried  to  teach  me  something  about  circle-sailing ;  but  I  had  not  patience  for 
tliat.  I  was  always  for  going  straight  on.  I  am  sure  the  ship  will  be  hailed 
-with  open  and  joyous  hearts  when  she  reaches  the  South  Seas.  You  can  haye 
no  idea  how  anxious  a  missionary  and  his  wife  are  to  see  a  white  face.  I 
and  my  dear  wife  have  been  almost  fiye  years  at  a  time  without  seeing  one ; 
and  I  am  sure  both  missionaries  and  people  will  hail  this  yessel  wiUi  the 
greatest  joy. 

The  Chairman  then  gare  the  health  of  the  Bey.  Dr.  Fei*guson,  Deputy- 
Chairman  of  the  London  Missionary  Society. 

Dr.  FERGTTSoir  said,  as  he  had  to  address  a  meeting  that  eyening,  and 
preach  two  sermons  on  behalf  of  the  Society  on  Sabbath,  he  would  be  excused 
from  making  a  speech  now.  He  should  content  himself  with  offering  his 
congratulations  on  the  beautiful  weather  and  the  happy  circumstances 
altogether  in  which  the  yessel  had  been  launched. 

The  Chairman  gaye  his  old  friend  "  Rey.  J.  H.  Wilson,"  remarking  upon 
his  usefnl  and  philanthropic  labours  both  in  Aberdeen  and  in  London. 

Mr.  Wilson  acknowledged ;  after  which  the  Rey.  John  Kennedy  pronounced 
the  benediction,  and  the  meeting  broke  up. 


PUBLIC  MEETINGS  IN  THE  EVENING. 

Arrangements  had  been  madfe  for  holding'  two  public  meetings  in  the 
eyening :  one  of  juyeniles  in  Blackfriars  Street  Chapel,  under  the  auspices  of 
the  Juyenile  Missionary  Society ;  the  other  in  the  Trades'  Hall,  under  the 
management  of  the  Committee  of  the  Female  Missionary  Society. 

The  juyenile  missionary  meeting  was  a  yery  full  one.  Through  the  kind 
liberality  of  Mr.  Welch,  not  only  were  aB  the  Sunday-school  children  pro- 
vided with  a  substantial  bun  on  the  occasion,  but  all  the  children  in  the 
Ragged  Schools,  and  all  the  children  in  the  Fort  Dee  Schools. 

The  chair  was  occupied  by  Mr.  George  F.  White. 

The  Rey.  John  Kennedy  addressed  the  meeting,  and,  with  many  telling 
&cts  and  earnest  appeals,  interested  and  impressed  the  children,  as  well  as 
many  parents  who  were  present. 

The  Rey.  George  Gill  addressed  the  children  for  more  than  an  hour, 
giying  them  a  thrilling  account  of  the  rise  and  progress  of  the  missionaiy 
enterprise  in  Polynesia,  interspersed  with  many  beautiful  anecdotes  and 
illustrations  of  Christian  work. 

The  Rey.  Thomas  Gilfillan,  the  pastor  of  the  Church,  and  other  friends, 
said  a  few  words,  and  the  proceedings  closed  about  nine  o'clock. 

The  meeting  in  the  Trades'  HaU  was  a  yery  crowded  one,  composed  chiefly 
of  ladies.  The  chair  was  occupied  by  Mr.  Tytler,  late  of  Ceylon,  and  a 
leading  member  of  the  Free  Church.    He  rcgoiced  in  the  honour  he  had 


316  MISSIONARY  MAOAZINB 

received  in  being  invited  to  preside  over  that  meeting,  and  in  all  the  dicnm* 
stances  connects  with  the  launch  of  the  ''John  Williams"  that  day.  Hsmg 
had  the  privilege  of  taking  some  part  in  conducting  the  muster  of  the  childraL 
he  could  bear  testimony  to  the  admirable  way  in  which  they  had  conducted 
themselves,  and  to  the  deHghtfnl  character  of  the  whole  proceedings. 

The  Bev.  Dayid  Abthub  read  a  financial  statement,  prepared  by  tlie 
secretary,  Miss  Bussell,  £rom  which  it  appeared  that  the  subscripticms  to  tk 
ship,  as  well  as  to  the  funds  of  the  Society,  traosmitted  through  the  Asaoda- 
tion,  had  been  very  liberal.  Mr.  Arthur  said  a  few  hearty  words  in  cozmecdoD 
with  the  general  question. 

The  Bev.  Dr.  Gbobge  Smith  moved  a  resolution  expressive  of  thankfohesi 
to  God  for  the  Christian  liberality  which  had  been  manifested  ill  Aberdeen, 
and  commending  to  the  care  of  our  heavenly  Father  Captain  and  Mn. 
Williams  in  prospect  of  their  speedy  return  in  the  "John  Williams"  to 
Polynesia.  Dr.  Smith  spoke  in  eloquent  and  most  imp]:es8ive  terms,  going 
over  the  whole  range  of  Christian  Missions  in  the  South  Seas,  and  then,  in 
conclusion,  paid  a  graceful  compliment  to  Captain  and  Mrs.  Williams, 
remarking  with  much  feeling  on  the  &ct  that  Mrs.  Williams  was  one  of  his 
own  spiritual  children,  had  been  connected  with  his  church  at  Poplar,  and 
was  in  every  way  ^worthy  of  the  confidence  and  affection  which  had  beai 
shown  towards  her  by  the  ladies  of  Aberdeen. 

Mr.  H.  W.  DoBELL  seconded  the  resolution.  He  described  in  glowing 
terms  and  with  much  feeling  the  scene  which  they  had  all  witnessed  thatdaj. 
traced  the  history  of  Christian  Missions  in  relation  to  ci^dlization,  urged  tbe 
claims  of  the  London  Missionary  Society  and '  other  missionary  societies  on 
the  support  of  the  Christian  Church,  and  concluded  by  thanking  the  fiiendi 
in  Aberdeen  for^the  cordial  and  hearty  welcome  which  the  deputation  bad 
received. 

The  Bev.  Di*.  FEsausoN  moved  the  second  resolution,  which  had  spedal 
reference  to  the  getting  up  of  a  box  of  materials  by  the  ladies  of  Aberdeai,  to 
be  presented  to  Mrs.  Williams  on  leaving,  for  distribution  among  thepeoplf 
of  the  lesser  islands ;  it  also  expressed  abiding  confidence  in  the  missionfii; 
enterprise.  The  Doctor  delivered  a  quiet,  thoughtful,  and  philosophic  address, 
which  was  listened  to  with  deep  attention,  and  evidently  produced  a  Btrcmg 
impression. 

Addresses  were  also  delivered  by  the  Bevs.  John  Kennedy,  David  Wallace, 
J.  H.  Wilson,  George  Gill,  and  Mr.  J.  K.  Welch. 


On  the  previous'evening  (Wednesday)  the  Annual  Meetingof  the  Aberdeen 
Auxiliary  to  the  London  Missionary  Society  was  held  in  Belmont  Chapd 
The  chair  was  occupied  first  by  Bev.  D.  Abthub,  and  afterwards  bj  Mr- 
Kemp  Welch,  one  of  the  Directors  of  the  Society.  There  was  a  larp 
attendance,  the  chapel  being  quite  crowded.  The  results  of  the  meeting  were 
very  satisfactory.

FOR   NOVEMBER,    1865.  317 

SOUTH  SEAS. 
DESTBUCTIVE  HXJKEICANE  ON   THE  ISLAND   OF  AITUTAKI. 

Amovo  the  passengers  on  board  the  late  missionary  ship  when  wrecked  in 
May  1864  were  two  veteran  missionaries,  the  Eev.  Messrs.  Barff  and  Royle, 
proceeding  from  their  respective  fields  of  labour  to  Sydney.  As  it  is  well 
known,  these  venerable  labourers,  with  the  whole  of  their  fellow-passengers, 
captain,  and  crew,  were,  in  the  gracious  providence  of  God,  rescued  from  the 
deep,  and  ultimately  conveyed  in  safety  to  their  destination.  After  a  few 
months'  sojourn  in  Sydney,  Mr.  Eoyle  returned  to  Aitutaki,  his  island-home, 
where  he  arrived  at  the  end  of  last  January. 

But  scarcely  had  ho  received  the  joyful  greetings  of  his  family  and  the 
attached  people  of  his  charge  when  a  tempest  broke  over  the  island  more 
terrific  and  destructive  than  had  ever  been  previously  known.  The  storm 
commenced  on  the  afternoon  or  evening  of  the  4th  February,  whilst  Mr.  and 
Mrs.  Royle  were  sitting  in  the  midst  of  the  school-children,  their  parents, 
and  the  teachers,  partaking  of  a  social  meal.  The  company  abruptly  broke 
up  in  alarm,  and  all  hastened  to  their  respective  homes ;  and,  under  the 
direction  of  their  missionary,  the  teachers,  and  deacons,  they  at  once  adopted 
the  (best  means  for  securing  the  chapels  and  school-houses  throughout  th& 
island.  But  all  such  precautions  proved  utterly  abortive.  About  half-past 
aix  p.m.  the  storm  had  augmented  to  a  hiirricane,  which, by  its  irresistible  force, 
seemed  to  threaten  devastation  and  ruin  to  all  within  its  reach.  Indeed,  the 
work  of  destruction  was  complete  ;  and  before  eight  o'clock  there  was  not  left 
standing  either  a  dwelling-place  for  man  or  a  sanctuary  for  God,  although 
many  of  the  buildings,  at  least  sixty  in  nimiber,  were  substantially  erected 
of  stone ;  7000  fruit-bearing  cocoa-nut  trees  were  levelled  with  the  ground, 
and  the  whole  family  of  bread-fruits  wa  s  annihilated;  whilst  all  the  vege- 
tables serving  for  food  were  swept  away  by  an  inundation  of  the  sea,  which 
rose,  about  midnight,  sixty  feet  above  its  ordinary  elevation.  Amidst  this 
fearful  strife  of  the  elements,  which  continued  throughout  this  memorable 
night,  Mr.  Royle  and  his  (family  found  a  partial  refuge  behind  a  remnant  of 
broken  wall  which  served  to  mark  the  spot  where  their  dwelling-house  had 
stood.  The  natives  in  like  manner  found  some  temporary  shelter.  Numbers 
of  them  rolled  matting  round  the  women  and  children  to  prevent  their  being 
separated  and  cast  away  by  the  violence  of  the  wind.  Many  have  since  died, 
and  others  remain  in  a  precarious  state,  from  the  injuries  received.  The 
missionary,  in  common  with  his  people,  had  all  his  provisions  destroyed, 
besides  sustaining  the  loss  of  his  furniture,  books,  and  clothing.  The  follow- 
ing is  the  substance  of  Mr.  Royle's  narrative  :-— 

**In  the  morning,  coming  from  our  miserable   shelter  of  the  previous 
night,  I  was  enabled,  from  the  high  ground  on  which  I'^fefltt;  to  see  that  the 


318  MISSIONARY  MAOAZINB 

people  were  assembling  in  small  groups,  obviously  for  the  purpose  of  prayer. 
This  greatly  encouraged  me,  and  I  was  further  cheered  by  hearing  the  befl, 
which  had  again  been  suspended,  summoning  the  congregation  to  worshipu 
Instead  of  a  pulpit,  a  sort  of  platform  was  extemporized  for  my  Tise.  Bnt 
few  of  those  assembled  wore  their  usual  Sabbath-day  garments.  When  I 
rose  to  offer  prayer  there  was  a  simultaneous  burst  of  sorrow,  whicH  partly 
relieved  their  overburdened  spirits.  The  hymn  commencing  *  G^od  mov» 
iii  a  mysterious  way '  was  then  sung  amidst  much  sobbing,  and  I  {ureacbed 
from  the  Saviour's  consolatory  words  (John  xiv.  2),  *  In  my  Father's  house 
are  many  mansions.'  The  address  was  listened  to  by  all  with  de^  and 
affecting  interest. 

'*  Throughout  the  day  the  demonstrations  of  grief  were  most  distressiaf ; 
nor  can  this  be  wondered  at  when  it  is  considered  that  a  whole  people  had 
by  this  awful  visitation  been  reduced  from  a  high  state  of  prosperity  to 
sudden  and  utter  destitution.  But  the  more  passionate  expressions  of  grief 
soon  subsided  into  a  calm  submission  to  the  will  of  Grod,  and  we  decided  to 
hold  a  meeting  on  the  following  day  to  devise  measures  for  repairing,  as  hi 
as  possible,  the  calamitous  effects  of  the  hurricane. 

'^  On  the  Monday  morning  we  had  a  large  assembly,  and,  after  a  short 
prayer  by  one  of  their  number,  I  addressed  them  on  the  practical  aspects  of 
the  great  duty  urged  upon  them  in  the  afbemoon  services  of  the  pzevioiis 
Sabbath,  from  the  text  '  Quit  you  like  men.'  I  pressed  them,  as  a  fizsi 
natural  duty,  to  seek  a  shelter  for  their  wives  and  little  ones,  however  tem- 
porary and  plain  it  might  be.  Some  spirited  speeches  were  deUvefed, 
and,  notwithstanding  my  recommendation,  they  had  all  evidently  made  uf 
their  minds  to  one  particular  course ;  viz.,  that,  as  we  were  greater  sufiaren 
than  they  in  the  common  calamity,  they  should  direct  their  first  and  bert 
efforts  to  provide  a  home  for  ms  and  my  family ;  that  if  I  oppoeed  their 
wishes  it  would  unfit  them  for  action,  but  if  I  allowed  them  to  begin  with 
my  dwelling  it  would  invigorate  them  for  their  other  duties.  I  left  t^em  to 
carry  out  their  wishes,  and  in  eight  days,  though  not  without  considenhle 
labour,  they  had  prepared  for  us  a  home." 

"  We  have  now  commenced  the  work  of  reconstruction,"  writes  Mr.  Boyk, 
three  months  after  the  hurricane.  "  It  will  be  up-hill  work,  but,  thanks  to 
our  heavenly  Father,  there  is  a  manifest  willingness  on  the  part  of  a  devc^ 
band,  "v^^ho  have  lost  neither  heart  nor  hope,  whose  confidence  remains  firm, 
that  this  dispensation,  though  painfiil  and  trying,  will  work  out  for  tfaem  a 
future  good."

DEATH  OF  DR.  JAMES  HENDERSON. 

In  October  1859][the  subject  of  tbis  notice  left  his  native  country  for  China, 
in  order  to  devote  his  talents  and  skill  as  a  medical  missionary  to  the  service 
of  the  Mission  Hospital  in  the  city  of  Shanghae.  In  February  1862 
Dr.  Henderson  paid  a  short  visit  to  Eiigland,  in  order  to  fulfil  an  important 
engagement,  and  within  two  months  re-embarked,  with  Mrs.  H.,  for  the  field 
of  foreign  labour.  Dr.  H.  enjoyed  a  large  and  increasing  practice,  both 
among  the  native  patients  in  attendance  upon  the  Mission  Hospital,  and  also 
among  the  foreign  settlers  at  Shanghae,  by  whom  he  was  held  in  high 
estimation. 

The  death  of  our  lamented  fiiend  is  thus  reported  by  the  North  China 
Merald  of  the  19th  August  idto.  :— 

"  Since  the  date  of  our  last  weekly  summary,  the  events  which  have  come 
to  light  have  been  few  and  unimportant,  with  the  exception  of  the  death  of  a 
well-known  and  much-respected  local  medical  practitioner,  Dr.  James  Hen- 
derson, which  took  place  in  Nagasaki  on  the  30th  ulto.  [July].  Dr.  Hender- 
son had  rendered  himself  highly  popular  with  a  large  section  of  the  foreign 
community,  and  had  done  good  service  by  the  publication  of  a  little  handbook 
of  medical  advice  especially  suited  for  residents  at  this  port  [Shanghae]. 
He  left  Shangha  some  weeks  ago,  after  a  severe  attack  of  typhoid  fever,  and 
it  was  hoped  that  in  the  healthier  climate  of  Japan  he  would  rally.  Such, 
however,  was  not  the  case.  Despite  the  attentions  of  his  family,  and  the  skill 
of  the  medical  officers  attached  to  the  men-of-war  in  the  harbour,  he  rapidly 
sank,  and,  as  we  have  said,  died.  His  funeral  took  place  on  the  following  day, 
and  was  attended  by  almost  every  foreigner  in  Nagasaki.  The  coffin  was 
borne  by  the  sailors  of  the  merchant-ships,  and  was  lowered  into  the  grave  by 
four  of  his  old  Shanghae  friends." 

The  Rev.  William  Muirhead,  in  a  letter  dated  the  19th  August,  adds 
some  gratifying  particulars  on  the  same  moumftil  event : — 

"  Dr.  Legge  happily  arrived  at  Nagasaki  the  day  before  Dr.  Henderson 
died,  and  had  a  brief  and  interesting  conversation  with  him.  He  writes 
me  in  a  very  gratifying  manner  as  to  his  religious  state  and  prospects.  His 
fiaith  and  hope  were  strong  in  Christ,  and  he  had  not  the  shadow  of  a  doubt 
on  the  subject  of  his  interest  in  His  saving  merits.  All  was  peace  with  him,  and 
be  contemplated  the  near  approach  of  death  with  the  utmost  serenity,  trusting 
in  Jesus.  And  so  our  friend  has  passed  away,  we  believe,  to  the  regions  of 
the  blessed,  where  sin  and  sorrow,  suffering  and  trial,  are  unknown. 

"  Our  afflicted  friend  Mrs.  Henderson  returned  to  Shanghae  two  days  ago 
on  board  the  same  ship  that  carried  her  and  her  lamented  husband  to  Japan. 
She  is,  of  course,  feeling  the  severity  of  her  great  trial,  but  is  bearing  it  with 
Ohristian  fortitude.  She  will  return  to  England  in  a  few  weeks,  where  we  are 
assured  she  will  meet  with  the  deep  sympathy  of  many  <

NBW  TEAK'S  8ACBAKENTAL  OVFESIKa 

TO  THB  FUND  FOB  THE 

WIDOWS  AND  ORPHANS  OP  DECEASED  MISSTONABIEff 

AND 

MISSIONARIES  INCAPACITATED  FOR  LABOUR  BY  AGE  AND  INFIRMITY. 

The  Directors  of  the  London  Missionary  Society  are  called  upon,  by  the  near 
approach  of  another  year,  to  repeat  their  annual  appeal  to  the  Ohnrcheer 
affiliated  with  the  Society  for  the  accustomed  exercise  of  their  liberality  on 
behalf  of  the  Widows  and  Orphans  of  departed  Missionaries,  and  in  aid  also 
of  those  faithM  labourers  who  have  worn  out  the  energy  of  life  in  their 
Divine  Master's  service. 

This  appeal  has  been  renewed  through  fifteen  successive  years,  and  it  has 
always  been  received  with  great  cordiality  and  kindness  by  the  Mends  to 
whom  it  is  addressed.  The  number  of  claimants,  and  the  urgency  of  theiif 
interests^  have  been  constantly  increasing ;  but,  happily,  the  liberality  of  the 
contributors  has  kept  pace  with  these  augmented  requirements.  The  Diroctora 
therefore  again  most  earnestly  entreat  their  Christian  brethren,  the  Pastors, 
Officers,  and  Members  of  the  Ohurches  by  whom  the  Society  is  generously 
supported,  that  at  the  first  Communion-service  in  the  year  (that  is,  Lord's 
day,  January  7th,  1866)  each  Christian  commimicant  who  is  willing  may 
have  the  opportunity  of  making  some  addition  to  his  usual  contribution ;  and 
that  the  amount  contributed  rn^er  and  above  the  average  of  the  ordinary  eaerO' 
mental  collection  may  be  appropriated  to  the  Widows'  Eund. 

The  present  number  of  Widows  dependent  on  the  Fund  is  TniBTT-BiGKr. 
Eleven  aged  and  incapacitated  Hissionabies  are  Si|ppoited  from  the  same

source.  To  these  must  be  added  Sixtt-eiqht  Fatherless  Children  :  making 
a  total  of  One  hxindbed  akb  ssTEirrEEir  individuals. 

The  Directors  very  urgently  request  the  co-operation  of  ChristiaQ  Pastors 
in  this  expression  of  sympathy  and  love,  by  presenting  this  t^peal  to  tlie 
Officers  and  liCembecs  •£  tlieir  Ghurchesy  and  6«licitiBg  their  kind  iiwii|iliniiM 
with  fixe  appKcfltioR. 

Signed  on  behalf  of  the  Directors, 

AETHUR  TTDMAif. 
MiBSiOK  HoTTBE,  Ut  Dec^  1865. 

P.S. — ^It  is  respectfully  requested  that  the  amount  specially  contributed  in 
reply  to  this  appeal  be  transmitted  g&parateli/  and  without  delay  to  the  Eev. 
Dr.  Abthur  TmicAir. 

It  is  hoped  that,  should  it  be  found  impracticable  to  make  the  Sacra- 
mental Offerings  now  solicited  on  the  first  Sabbath  of  next  months  our 
Christian  Mends  will  kindly  embrace  Om  iist  Sabbath  in  Ebbrtjast  for  the 
occasion* 


INSTJREECTIOl^  IN  JAMAICA. 

All  classes  of  society  throughout  our  country  have  been  equally  astonished 
and  grieved  by  recent  intelligence  received  from  Jamaica^  that  m  the  imme- 
diate district  of  Moraht  BAx/south-east  of  Sjsasroir,  a  considenible  poitioB 
of  the  negro  population  have  risen  in  arms  against  the  local  outhoiitieBy  and 
have  been  guilty  of  acts  the  most  cruel  and  inhuman*  The  objects  of  ibar 
hatred  and  violence  have  been  exclusively  white  and  brown  men,  indodnig 
magistrates,  clergymen,  missionaries,  planters,  and  qthers,  and  the  mmdeD 
they  have  committed  have  been  attended  with  the  most  revolting  btibaixties. 
It  would  be  impossible  at  present  to  state,  witb  any  accuracy,  the  numbered 
victims  destroyed ;  while  survivors  have  barely  escaped,  having  been  < 
peUed  to  flee  for  their  lives,  leaving  their  houses  and  property  in  the  ] 
of  the  infuriated  blacks.  Prompt  measures  were  taken  by  Govessor  Em 
and  the  few  military  authorities  and  troops  in  the  island,  and  theinsmedion, 
when  the  last  accounts  left  Jamaica,  was  suppressed.  Muhitodes  of  the  mia- 
guided  negroes  have  been  shot  or  hanged,  and  a  considerable  body,  taksB 
prisoners,  were  awaiting  trial  by  court-martial. 

It  is  impossible,  with  any  certainty,  to  trace  the  origin  of  tius  unhappy 

movement,  or  to  ascertain  the  extent  to  which  the  coloured  population  of  the 

island  were  generally  implicated;  but,  so  fieur  as  evidence  has  yet  appeared, 

it  was  mainly  confined  to  the  district  of  St.  Thoicas  nr  imi  Easc,    The 

population  of  Mobahi  Bat  is  comparatively  8maJ^.^.^|p^^^$0^[ifaeR  n»

three,  if  not  mofe,  oongregations,  tbere  is  no  reddent  missioBary  except  a  Weo- 
leyan,  whose  life  was  in  imminent  peril,  though  happily  ho  esci^ed. 

We  trust  that  the  causes  of  this  unexpected  outbreak  will  be  sought  out 
by  a  Government  oommission,  whose  members  shall  be  disting^nished  by  com- 
petent intelligence  and  strict  impartiality.  Although  nothing  can  extenuate 
the  bloodthirsty  disposition  and  barbarous  deeds  of  the  insurgents,  which  it 
vraa  necessary  promptly  to  put  down  by  means  which,  under  other  circum- 
stances, could  not  be  justified,  yet  the  strong  tendency  of  the  public  admi- 
nistration on  the  labouring  population  has  been  very  oppressive,  and  has  gra- 
dually produced  a  state  of  alienation  and  a  deep  sense  of  injury,  which  has 
resulted  in  the  present  partial  rebellion.  But  we  apprehend  that  it  will  be 
found,  on  inquiry,  that  the  individuals  chiefly  implicated  in  the  acts  of  cruelty 
and  ferocity  perpetrated  upon  the  white  and  brown  inhabitants,  are  the  indo* 
lout  and  dishonest,  the  worthless  and  the  vile,  rather  than  those  who  have 
suffered  actual  WTong. 

Our  Society  has  two  stations  in  the  immediate  district  of  the  rebellion, 
under  the  care  of  native  teachers ;  and  there  is  reason  to  hope  that  they  have 
escaped  and  that  the  natives  under  their  care  have  not  been  implicated  in 
these  outrages.  The  chief  stations  of  our  Society  are  situated  in  other 
districts  near  the  centre  of  the  island,  and  we  subjoin  letters  from  two  of  our 
missionary  brethren,  the  Eev.  W.  Ai^lowat,  of  Bidgmoxwt,  who  has  laboured 
in  the  island  for  thirty-one  years,  and  the  Eev.  W.  J.  Gaediteb,  of  Kurosroiri 
who  has  the  superintendence  of  the  stations  on  the  East.  From  these  letters 
our  readers  will  learn  with  much  satisfaction  and  thankfulness  that  both  tiio 
missionaries  and  their  people  viewed  the  acts  of  the  insurgents  with  feelings 
of  abhorrence,  and  employed  what  influence  they  had  to  maintain  order  and 
peace. 

LETTER  OP  REV.   WILLIAM  ALLOWAY. 

"MandeviUo,  P.  O. 

"  Jamaica,  October,  23rd,  1865. 

**  Dear  Sir, — My  heart  sinks  within  me  to  think  of  the  shock  which  the 
liorrible  tidings,  borne  by  this  mail  to  England,  will  give  to  the  Mends  of 
Missions  and  of  the  Negro  race.  It  is  some  relief  to  me  that  the  duty  of 
describing  to  you  the  murderous  deeds  which  have  recently  been  perpetrated 
in  the  eastern  parishes  of  this  island  does  not  devolve  on  me,  but  on  Mr. 
Oardner,  of  Kingston,  who  is  much  nearer  to  them  than  I  am. 

**  You  will  be  glad  to  learn  that  there  is  not,  as  far  as  we  can  ascertain,  any 
disaffection  to  the  Government  in  this  district.  As  soon  as  possible  after 
the  dreedfiil  news  from  St.  Thomas  in  the  East  reached  us,  I  called  a  meeting 
of  the  deacons  of  the  Qhureh,  ail  of  whom  are  respectaUe  influential  black 
men.  The  meeting  was  private  and  confidential,  and  I  besought  them  to  tell 
me  all  they  knew  and  thought  respecting  this  matter,  when  they  unanimously 
and  solemnly  dedared  that  they  had  nevei*  thought  of  the  rebellion  but  with 
feelings  of  abhorrence,  nor  heard  it  spoken  of  in  the  several  localities  in  which 

p2 


828  MISSIONABT  MAOAZmB 

they  reside  bnt  in  temiB  of  execration ;  and  offered  without  delay  to  enrol 
themselyes  as  special  constables,  and  tonse  their  influence  to  induce  others  to* 
imitate  their  example.  I  immediately  wrote  to  the  custos  of  the  pariah  to 
inform  him  of  the  result  of  our  meeting ;  and  on  Saturday  last  a  goodly 
number  were  sworn  in  as  special  constables,  and  others  joined  the  Tolunteer 
corps. 

"  No  fear  is  entertained  respecting  the  people  of  the  i>arish,  unless  the  lawle» 
sayagesfrom  a  distance  should  breakin  uponus,  when,  doubtless,  many  of  theidle 
and  worthless  among  us  would  join  them.  In  that  case  we  must  depend  upon 
the  better  portion  of  the  people  for  protection.  There  is  not,  so  £u*  as  I  know, 
a  soldier  within  thirty  or  forty  miles  of  us,  and  the  police  and  volunteer  force 
are  all  taken  from  among  the  people.  But  our  trust  is  in  €k>d,  *  our  refuge 
and  strength — a  very  present  help  in  trouble.*  A  black  young  man,  a  member 
of  this  Church,  but  at  present  employed  as  colporteur  by  the  Kingston 
Auxiliary  BiUe  Society,  wrote  me  a  good  note  the  other  day,  from  which  tiie 
following  is  an  extract : — 

" '  Kingston,  October  19th,  1865, 

" '  Deab  Ministeb,— Believing  that  yourself  and  Mrs.  A.  are  perfectly 
safe,  and  having  your  hearts  staid  on  the  Qod  of  our  salvation,  I  write  this  note 
in  the  midst  of  excitement.  I  grieve,  sir,  and  am  ashamed,  that  in  thia  our 
land,  comparatively  full  of  ministers  and  teachers,  and  possessing  so  many 
Bibles,  there  could  be  found  men  capable  of  committing,  and  willing  to  commit 
such  dreadful  crimes  as  have  stained  our  island's  history.  I  hope,  however,  that 
the  rebellion  wiU  soon  be  at  an  end,  and  that  good  may  come  out  of  thia 
evil.'

"  Kingston,  Jamaica, 

"October  24th,  1865. 
"  Mt  deab  Sib, — ^I  can  only  ascribe  it  to  the  providential  care  of  Ahnigh^ 
€k>d  that  I  am  alive  to  address  you  on  this  occasion.  I  had  written  to  oar 
native  catechist  Mr.  Boss,  at  Morant  Bay,  to  inform  him  that  I  would  be 
there  on  the  10th  instant;  but  on  the  previous  day  1  found  my  engagements 
so  numerous  that  I  was  induced  to  write,  delaying  my  visit  and  endoaing 
money  on  account  of  salary.  That  delay,  1  have  no  doubt,  saved  my  life ;  for 
on  the  afternoon  of  the  lltii,  when  I  should  have  been  at  the  Bay,  a  band  of 
rioters  entered  the  little  town,  and,  after  a  conflict  with  a  few  volanteers, 
murdered,  or  left  for  dead,  nearly  eveiy  white  person  present  at  a  meeting 
then  being  held  in  the  court-house.  As  I  never  could  have  supposed  that  the 
people  in  this  country  would  have  iigured  a  minister,  I  do  not  soppoae  1 
should  have  thought  it  necessaiy  to  have  made  any  effort  to  secure  my 
personal  safety;  and  facts  which  subsequently  transpired  show  that  aaj^

^precautions  would  probably  have  been  in  vain ;  for  the  rebels,  as  thej  are  now 
'Called,  killed  one  clergymasi  who  was  at  the  meeting,  a  brother  of  the  late 
^BeT.  Bidley  Herschell,  and  fearfdllj  ill-treated  another,  the  rector,  who  must 
be  upwards  of  seventy  years  of  age.  Mr.  Herschell's  tongue  was  cut  out  by 
A  woman,  and  fearful  barbarities  inflicted  on  others. 

"  This  onslaught,  it  now  appears,  was  only  the  commencement  of  a  premedi- 
tated attack  on  all  the  white  and  coloured  inhabitants ;  for  during  the  follow- 
ing days  large  bands  of  people  passed  through  that  end  of  the  island,  inflicting 
terrible  cruelties,  and  plundering  wherever  they  went.  No  less  than  200 
refugees,  men,  women,  and  children,  have  reached  Kingston,  many  of  them,  who 
lately  occupied  happy  homes,  having  saved  themselves  by  hiding  in  the  woods 
and  swamps  almost  without  food  for  days :  some  mothers  with  infant  children 
were  among  the  number.  Among  those  thus  rescued  by  the  troops  are  several 
•clergymen  and  a  coloured  Baptist  minister  and  his  family.  One  hundred  others 
were  saved  on  board  an  American  ship  lying  at  an  outpost,  the  captain  of  which 
liad  to  put  to  sea  on  three  successive  nights  to  avoid  attack.  Among  these 
were  two  clergymen  and  a  Wesleyan  missionary  and  his  ^unily.  The  state  of 
excitement  for  the  past  two  weeks  has  been  fearful :  we  have  felt  that,  on  a 
jEunall  scale,  the  horrors  of  the  Indian  mutiny  were  being  perpetrated  around  us. 

"  Prompt  measures  were  taken  by  the  authorities ;  troops  aud  vessels  of 
war  were  at  once  sent  down  ;  and  the  revolt  is  now  beHeyed  to  be  e£fectually 
checked.  Great  numbers  of  the  misguided  people  have  already  perished  by 
the  bullets  of  the  soldiery  or  the  hands  of  the  executioner.  It  is  to  be  feared 
that  many  who  are  innocent  have  perished  with  the  guilty.  The  whole  of  this 
part  of  the  island,  the  city  of  Kingston  (for  commercial  reasons)  excepted,  is 
under  martial  law ;  but  in  Kingston  many  persons  have  been  arrested  and 
sent  for  trial  before  the  military  courts,  charged  with  being  concerned  in  the 
rebellion.  Fifteen  persons  have  just  been  sent  away,  among  whom  are  four 
black  Baptist  ministers  and  several  who  held  respectable  positions.  Many 
Haytian  refugees  have  been  ordered  to  leave  the  island.  The  authorities  keep 
everything  very  secret ;  but  there  is  a  report  very  genei*ally  believed  that  a 
secret  society  has  been  discovered,  and  that  the  rebellion  was  concocted  in 
Kingston. 

"  I  have  been  much  concerned  about  the  safety  of  our  teacher  Mr.  Boss, 
and  of  the  Rev.  Mr.  Harty.  I  wrote  to  them  as  soon  as  postal  communication 
was  reopened,  making  inquiry,  and  offering  pecuniaiy  or  any  other  assistance 
that  might  be  required ;  but  as  yet  I  have  received  no  reply.  I  have,  however, 
heard  that  they  are  safe  at  Morant  Bay.  I  shall  go  down  as  soon  as  possible, 
and  see  what  had  better  be  done  with  our  station  there.  Great  fears  have 
been  expressed  for  the  safety  of  this  city,  and  a  considerable  niunber  of 
volunteers  have  been  enrolled,  by  whom,  in  connection  with  the  few  regular 
troops  left  here,  the  city  is  guarded  at  night.  Ships  have  been  sent  to 
3arbadoes  and  Nassau  for  troops,  and  arms  and  ammimition  have  been  sent 
to  the  outports.  From  our  brethi'en  in  Manchester  and  Clarendon  I  hear 
that  all  is  quiet  in  their  respective  districts,  though  fears  are  entertained  that, 
were  any  of  the  rebels  to  escape  into  those  districts  (which  is  now  almost  im- 
possible), there  are  too  many  who  have  neither  character  nor  property  to  lose 
«?ho  might  join  them  in  the  hope  of  plunder.  digitized  by  LjOOQLC 


330  MISSIOKARY  MA6A2tXE 

*'  Mr.  AUowaj  intended  holding  a  devotional  meeting  with  his  deacons  aal 
leading  people  on  Satwday  last,  after  which  they  were  to  go  to  i^e  cooft- 
house  and  enrol  themselves  as  special  constables.  Mr.  Lindo  was  in  town 
last  week,  and  was  rather  concerned  about  some  threats  that  had  been  made 
respecting  him  and  Mr.  Hillyer,  but  of  which  he  thought  little  at  the  time; 
the  allied  offence  being,  I  understand,  that  they  had  written  to  the  Queen 
against  the  negroes.  I  have  heard  this  statement  about  myself.  Bidicakas 
as  this  may  seem,  a  fearful  meaning  is  conveyed  by  it,  as  you  will  see  when  I 
mention  that,  when  the  ^aron  von  Kettleholdt,  the  «istos  or  chief  magistmte, 
had  been  murdered  at  Morant  Bay,  the  people  cut  off  his  -fingers,  saying  tiiey 
should  write  no  more  lies  to  the  Queen.  The  matter  to  which  vf^ereAce  was 
thus  made  is  as  follows: — In  consequence  of  a  conrnxunioaAion  from  Dr. 
UnderhiU,  Secretary  of  the  Baptist  Missionary  Society,  ihe  Colcfiial  Seeretaiy, 
the  Right  Honourable  B.  Oardwell,  addresered  a  letter  to  ihe  Goremor  otf 
Jamaica,  seeking  information  on  several  points  relative  to  the  condition  of 
the  woHcing  classes.  The  Governor  forwarded  the  communicatioiis,  with 
certain  questions  of  his  own,  to  the  custodes  of  parishes  and  the  supposed 
representative  of  each  religious  denomination.  One  of  these  was  sent  to  me; 
for,  as  living  in  Kingston,  I  am  generally  applied  to  by  Government  for  any 
denominational  information  they  require.  I  was  at  the  time  very  pooriy,  and 
when  I  was  better  I  found  that  the  subject  had  heen  made  a  handle  <rf  by 
political  agitators,  and  I  therefore  thought  it  best  to  avoid  any  c(MinectioB 
with  it ;  and  thus  it  happened  that  I  never  wrote  a  line  on  the  subject ;  and,  so 
far  as  I  am  aware,  none  of  my  brethren  did. 

'•That  the  people  have  grievances  there  can  be  no  doubt,  and  the  same 
remark  applies  fco  those  by  whom  they  are  employed.  To  say  that  our  laws 
are  perfect,  or  that  there  is  never  any  defect  m  their  administmtion,  wooM  he 
to  describe  a  state  of  things  which  has  never  yet  existed  among  any  people, 
still  less  in  a  mixed  community  like  this. 

**  But  I  have  no  hesitation  in  saying  that  our  present  sad  crisis  is  not 
brought  about  so  much  by  any  evils  it  is  in  the  power  of  Government  to 
redress,  as  by  the  unprincipled  acts  of  political  agitators,  iHso  sought  to  nse 
the  less  informed  masses  of  the  x>cople  for  the  attainment  of  their  own  B^&h 
ends.   That  they  foresaw  the  fearful  issue,  I  am  unwiUing  to  believB. 

"  Many  of  the  gentlemen  who  were  killed  at  Morant  Bay  were  present  at  a 
lecture  I  delivered  during  my  last  visit,  cm  the  *  Pilgrim's  Progress.'  Hie  Barai 
von  Kettleholdt  addressed  Ihe  audience  at  the  dose,  and  I  do  not  tliink  he 
could  have  spoken  as  he  did  unless  he  had  known  by  expmenoe  somethii^  of 
the  (Christian  pilgrimage.  He  had  lived  near  our  station  at  l^ortwood  ibr 
about  thirty  years,  and  was  much  esteemed  by  the  people  in  l^at  distriot  as 
a  kind  and  humane  man.

FOR  ISCEMBBRj   1865.  331 


MADAGASCAR. 

In  our  last  Kumber  we  expressed  the  conyiction  that  the  ramours  circulated, 
through  the  medium  of  the  French  papers,  of  the  overthrow  of  the  Kalagasgr 
GoTemment  would  prove  to  be  grossly  exaggerated,  if  not  altogether 
unfounded ;  and  such,  happily,  the  result  has  proved. 

An  extensive  tract  of  valuable  land  was  granted  by  the  late  T^ing  to  Mens. 
Lahbeet,  a  French  resident  on  the  island,  in  opposition  to  the  established 
usages  of  the  country  and  to  the  urgent  remonstrances  of  the  chief  nobles 
and  officers  of  the  Government.  This  grant  the  Queen,  with  the  present 
Grovemment  and  the  nation  generally,  refused  to  confirm,  and  in  consequence 
the  Emperor  and  Government  of  France  imposed  an  indemnity  upon  the 
Malagasy  Government  amounting  to  the  sum  of  240,000  dollars.  The  payment 
of  this  (^preeaive  demand  has  been  from  time  to  time  delayed,  and  attemptg 
have  been  made,  but  in  vain,  to  obtain  some  reduction  in  the  amount.  At 
length,  however,  the  claim  became  peremptory,  and  the  money  was  aetoallj 
paid;  the  Queen  contributing  tiie  sum  of  140,000  dollars,  and  boROWxng 
Hie  remaining  100,000.  When  the  morning  arrived  for  conveying  this 
large  amount  of  treasure  to  the  coast,  both  the  officers  and  the  peoj^ 
complained  loudly  of  the  injustice  and  cruelty  of  the  proceeding,  and  it 
became  necessary  that  precautionary  measures  should  be  taken  againcft 
any  acts  of  insubordination  or  resistance.  This  course  was  wisely 
adopted,  and  the  treasure  was  conveyed  to  a  French  man-of-war  waiting 
in  the  port  of  Tamatave.  I^o  result  followed  ;  but  a  deep  sense  dT 
wrong  is  entertained  by  aU  classes  of  the  Malagasy  people  at  what  thej- 
jegard,  on  the  part  of  France,  as  not  cmly  ungenerous,  but  as  an  act  of  groM 
oppression  oommitted  by  the  strcmg  upon  the  feeble,  which  it  is  not  likelf 
they  will  forget  in  their  future  intercourse  with  the  French  authorities  aal 
other  natives  of  France  visiting  Madagascar, 

We  insert  some  brief  eommunioatiaBB  relating  to  the  state  and  progress  of

The  Ecv«  Geoboe  Cousins  transmits  the  following  brief  report  of  his  first 
year  of  labour  in  tiie  capital,  which  evinces  the  true  character  of  a  Christian 
unssionary,  and  tiie  gratifying  progress  which,  within  that  short  period,  he 
has  made,  both  in  the  acquisition  of  the  language  and  the  prosecution  of  his 
various  labours : — 

«  Ambatonakanga,  August  31st,  1865. 

*'  My  deab  Db.  Tidmak, — ^We  have  just  completed  our  first  year  in  Mada- 

gasoar,  and  I  think  it  right  to  let  you  know  what  has  been  done  during  the 

year,  and  what  we  h<^>e  may  be  acoomplished  in  the  coming  year.    Althougk

report,  Bach  as  is  common  to  all  of  as  in  tliis  land,  it  may  perliape  be  some 
satisfaction  to  yoa  to  hear  of  this. 

"  Our  work  here  is  very  different  from  that  of  the  Christian  pastor  in  England; 
bat  we  yeiy  soon  forget  this,  and  assume  that  the  churches  at  home  think  of 
^fadagascar  Christians  and  churches  as  we,  who  know  their  real  character, 
think  of  them. 

DESIBE  OF  THE  NATIYE8  FOB  INSTBUCTIOK. 

"  The  knowledge  one  can  gain  of  a  people  in  twelve  months  cannot  be  very 
great,  but  the  Malagasy  certainly  improve  on  acquaintance.  With  a  veiy 
few  exceptions,  the  members  of  our  churches  are  but  children  in  knowledge 
and  spiritual  things ;  but  they  are  anxious  to  learn,  or,  as  they  often  say,  they 
are  very  thirsty;  and  I  think  that,  under  judicious  and  kind,  hxit  fadthfiil 
training,  they  will,  with  the  blessing  of  the  Master,  rise  to  higher  and  nobler 
things.  Now  and  then  we  hear  of  members  of  our  churches  falling  into  some 
of  the  sins  of  their  nation ;  but,  on  the  whole,  there  is  a  decided  differenoe 
between  the  praying  and  the  not-praying  people.  You  must  be  aware  fhat 
*  the  praying '  is  the  great  point  with  the  Malagasy,  and  that  many,  when 
ihey  first  attend  a  place  of  worship,  have  but  little  thought  beyond  that  of 
joining  with  others  in  praying  to  God.  They  have  but  very  feeble  concepti<»i8 
of  their  own  mTifalTiAgg,  but  they  are  impressed  with  a  belief  that  the  practice 
of  the  Christians  of  offering  prayer  and  singing  praise  to  God  is  a  good  and 
wise  practice.  But  they  hear  some  very  plain  statements  as  to  their  need  of 
a  Saviour,  and  are  told  who  that  Saviour  is,  in  a  very  straightforward  way,  by 
the  native  preachers  and  the  missionaries.  With  those  who  have  come  to 
me  wishing  yto  be  baptized  I  have  always  been  pleased,  for  there  has  been 
a  clear  knowledge  of  the  leading  truths  of  the  €k>spel.  On  one  occaaion  I 
asked  a  candidate  for  baptism  if  he  thought  that  baptism  would  save  his 
flouL  He  seemed  astonished  at  my  asking  him  such  a  question ;  and,  indeed, 
he  made  me  feel  sony  that  I  had  asked  him,  as  he  emphatically  answered  thai 
he  did  not  think  so  at  all,  for  both  he  and  I  knew  that  Jesus  Christ  alone  can 
ta&e  away  sin. 

LABOUBS  MOBE  ABUNDANT. 

''  As  to  my  own  special  work,  since  Mr.  Ellis's  departure  my  duties  have 
been  greatly  increased ;  but,  as  the  responsibility  of  the  pastoral  office  had 
been  gradually  assumed,  the  change  has  not  proved  too  much  for  me.  The 
congregations  keep  up  well,  the  old  chapel  being  filled  twice  each  Sabbath, 
and  there  is  evidence  of  some  life  and  zeal  in  the  church. 

"As  you  yn}l  readily  suppose,  we  are  all  anzioas  to  get  into  the  new 
church.  The  present  building  is  very  wretched,  but  we  are  waiting  for  some- 
thing worth  having.  The  church  now  nearly  completed  will  be  the  greatest 
ornament  the  city  at  present  possesses,  and  will  also  be  a  substantial  and 
noble  house  of  prayer  for  very  many  years.  In  thinking  of  the  future  my 
fears  are  numerous,  but  my  hopes  are  more  numerous,  and  prevail ;  and  it  is 
a  great  satisfaction  to  me  to  know  that  you  approve  of  my  occupjring  so 
responsible  a  position.  Mr.  Ellis  was  always  very  kind  in  speaking  to  me  on 
this  point,  and  did  much  to  remove  my  diffidence  and  anxiety.  My  time  is  vetj 
fully  occupied,  and  is  every  month  less  my  own  and  more  the  people's.    En» 


FOB  DECEMBEKy   1865.  333 

^agement  has  been  added  to  engagement,  class  to  daas,  but  all  in  a  very 
gradual  way,  and  now  every  day  has  its  regular  work. 

"  A  class  for  prectchers,  commenced  four  months  ago,  has  been  one  of  my 
most  encouraging  engagements.  We  spend  some  really  pleasant  and  profit- 
able afternoons  together,  sometimes  in  the  consideration  of  a  portion  of 
"Scripture,  and  sometimes  in  the  preparation  of  the  full  plan  of  a  ser- 
mon. This  latter  method  is  a  £EkTourite  with  the  preachers.  They  ctiscuss 
the  text  very  thoroughly  first,  and  then  proceed  to  construct  a  sermon; 
and  they  have  made  some  tolerable  sermons,  which  are  always  preached  after- 
wards. I  have  encouraged  the  preachers  to*come  to  me  every  week  to  discuss 
iihe  passages  they  intehd  preaching  from  on  the  Sabbath,  and  do  my  best  to 
help  them,  sometimes  suggesting  divisions,  sometimes  pointing  out  similar 
passages  good  for  quoting. 

''Mrs.  Cousins  is  doing  her  best  to  teach  the  girls  and  women.  She  and 
•oar  baby  are  great  helps  to  me.  The  people  make  a  great  fuss  with  the 
•children  of  the  missionaries,  and  we  have  taken  quite  a  new  social  standing  in 
the  eyes  of  the  Malagasy  since  we  have  become  parents.  They  frequently  tell 
us  that,  although  we  are  English,  the  baby  is  one  of  themselves,  because  this 
is  her  birthplace ;  and,  when  we  demur  at  this,  they  tell  us  that  they  wiU 
soon  have  a  proof,  because  she  will  learn  their  language  before  she  learns  ours, 
which  will  doubtless  be  true.  Mrs.  C.  teaches  the  women  of  the  congregation 
^writing  and  sewing,  and  she  hopes  soon  to  begin  a  Bible-class.  The  women 
are  to  be  her  especial  chai'ge. 

ynXAOE  CHAPELS. 

"  Our  village  chapels  are  in  a  prosperous  condition.  Of  the  eight  village 
stations  connected  with  Ambatonakanga,  four  have  provided  new  chapels 
this  season.  I  have  been  much  in  the  country,  and  am  very  pleased  with  the 
Christians  composing  the  different  congr^ations.  A  fortnight  since  I  was  at 
Ambohimanga — ^that  is,  in  its  outskirts.  The  principal  part  of  the  congre- 
gation was  made  up  of  officers  sent  hy  the  Rasoherina  {the  Queen)  to  dtfend  and 
Reserve  this  holy  toton  and  home  oftheHdols,  This  struck  me  as  an  interesting 
-and  auspicious  circumstance.  The  people  there  and  elsewhere  are  very  anxious 
to  commence  day-schools ;  but  teachers  are  so  difficult  to  meet  with  that  they 
are  unable  to  have  the  schools.  I  have  commeiftsed  two  Bible-classes  in  the 
villages,  held  once  a  fortnight ;  the  one  at  Hazaina,  due  north,  and  the  other 
at  Inamehana,  a  little  to  the  south.  These  two  are  more  central  than  the 
others,  and  are  more  easily  reached. 

TEMPOBABY  EXCITEMENT. 

**  There  has  been  no  little  excitement  here  lately  in  connection  with  the 
Xambert  treaty.  The  Queen  has  had  to  pay  240,000  dollars,  as  comx>ensa- 
tion  for  the  nonfnlfilment  of  the  treaty.  Of  tiiis  the  Queen  has  paid  140,000 
dollars,  and  the  rest  she  has  borrowed  from  her  subjects.  I  hear  that  this 
-money  will  leave  to-morrow,  escorted  by  1000  soldiers.  In  consequence  of 
-this  demand,  the  French  are  in  ill  repute  amongst  the  Hovas. 

"  I  must  conclude,  however.    Mrs.  Cousins  unites  with  me  in  kind  regards.

The  following  gratifying  letter  has  been  received  from  Moss  Mabgabet 
Milne,  describing  the  events  of  their  voyage  and  their  journey  to  Anta- 
nanarivo : — 

"  Antananarivo,  July  Slst,  1865. 

"My  deab  Sib,— It  is  with  feelings  of  deep  thankfulness  to  God  for  His  pre- 
serving  care,  both  by  sea  and  land,  that  1  now  write  to  you  from  the  capital  cf 
Madagascar.  We  have  been  mercifully  preserved  amid  many  dangers  and 
difficulties,  and  here  we  would  seek  to  raise  another  Ebenezer,  and  oonaeczate 
ourselves  anew  to  the  service  of  God. 

*'  At  Mauritius  Mr.  Mclrvine  kindly  oifered  to  help  us  in  any  way,  and  so 
we  asked  him  to  write  to  you,  as  we  thought  that  he  would  be  able  to  do  so 
better  than  we  could,  as  there  were  some  business  matters  to  be  explained. 

"  On  our  aiTival  here  we  found  that  a  house  had  been  provided  for  us  by 
Mr.  Ellis ;  but  we,  acting  up  to  the  tenour  of  your  instructions,  and  not 
able  to  show  them  to  Mr.  Ellis  before  he  left,  have  oome  to  reside,  for  some 
at  least,  with  Dr.  Davidson,  as  he  is  the  only  member  of  the  Missiim  vho 
could  accommodate  us  both. 

''  1  hope  that  the  arrangement  -will  meet  with  your  approbation;  and  if  wr 
find  that,  in  order  to  extend  and  facilitate  our  usefulness,  we  have  to  move  into 
a  separate  house  near  to  some  member  of  the  Mission,  we  hope  that  our  so 
doing,  if  we  shall  find  it  necessary,  may  also  be  approved  of  by  you. 

"  In  the  meanwhile  we  are  giving  our  time  to  acquiring  a  knowledge  of  the 
language,  and  before  long  we  expect  to  be  able  to  do  a  little  in  some  of  the 
schools.  We  are  also  visiting  the  schotds  and  attending  the  Malagasy 
services,  in  order  that  we  may  get  the  language  as  quickly  as  possible. 

"  Wc  have  been  received  and  treated  very  kindly  by  all  the  members  of  the 
Mission,  and  are  looking  forward  with  no  small  degree  of  pL^rare  to  a  li£e  of

OuE  enterprising  missionary  brethren  in  the  Navigators'  Group  were  induced, 
in  the  month  of  May  last,  in  consequence  of  interesting  reports  which  had 
reached  them,  to  delegate  one  of  their  nxunberi  the  Bev.  A.  W.  Hitrkat,  to 
-visit  several  clusters  of  small  islands^  distant  about  600  miles,  and  designated 
jgenerally  by  the  missionary  as  the  Laooost  Islands.  The  enterprise  was 
crowned  with  entire  success,  and  the  lepart  given  by  Ifr.  Hurray  of  the  stats 
of  the  peofde^wMehwiU  be  fcmnd  in  the  following  nairative,  will  be  read  with 
feelings  of  equal  astonishment  and  delight.    Truly  may  it  be  said  of  tiNM

islands,  they  "wait  for  the  law  of  the  Lord ;"  and,  thank  Ood,  they  here 
not  waited  in  vain.  Already  Christian  evangelists  are  among  them,  and  we 
imst  that  in  a  few  months  their  numher  will  he  increased  in  proportion  to  the 
thousands  that  are  thirsting  for  instruction;  and  we  may  confidently  expect 
that,  on  a  people  so  signally  prepared  by  the  Lord,  He  will  pour  out  His  Spin^ 
«nd  raise  them  to  the  full  knowledge  and  enjoyment  of  salvation. 

''I  can  think  of  no  designation,"  writes  Mr.  Murray,  "so  appropriate  to'the 
ialandB  to  which  this  report  refers  as  that  of  Lagoon  Islands.  It  is  troe  they 
are  coral  islands,  and  so  to  designate  them  would  diBtingnish  them  from  the 
islands  of  volcanic  origin;  but  then  there  are  coral  islands  in  other  parts  of  the 
Pacific,  such  as  the  Loyalty  Islands,  Savage  Island,  &c.;  so  that  simplj  to  call 
the  islands  in  question  coral  islands  would  not  distinguish  them  from  the 
xythers.  But  to  designate  them  Lagoon  Islands  answers  all  the  end  of  a  name^ 
inasmuch  as  the  possession  of  a  lagoon  is  their  distinguishing  feature. 

"The  voyage,  a  report  of  which  I  have  now  to  forward  to  the  Directors,  was 
imdertaken  at  the  request  of  my  brethren  of  this  Mission,  and,  by  the  good 
hand  of  Gk)d  upon  us,  has  been  safely  and  successfully  accomplished. 

THB  VOYAQB  AND  ASBIVAL  AT  NTJKULABLAE. 
•  •  « 

"We  embarked  on  board  the  ' Ajigustiti^'  a  small  trading- vessel  about 
fifty  tons  burden,  and  sailed  from  Apia  on  Wednesday,  the  3rd  of  May,  1865. 
We  were  bound  for  the  Islands  known  on  the  charts  as  Ellice's  Ghroup,  and 
ether  islands  beyond  these,  known  by  various  names.  Our  missionary  party 
oonsisted  of  two  married  teachers,  accompanied  by  their  wives,  one  unmanied, 
myself  and  servant,  and  a  child  beloiiging  to 'one  of  the  teachers.  Connected 
with  one  of  oxu*  party,  Elekana,  there  is  a  tale  of  deep  interest,  which  deserves 
particular  notice  from  its  connection  with  our  voyage,  and  the  striking  ilfais- 
tration  which  it  affords  of  the  wonder-working  providence  of  God  in  canying 
out  His  plans  and  purposes  of  mercy  towards  the  race  of  man." 

Here  follows  an  interesting  n^rative  of  the  adventures  of  Mekana,  showing 
how,  in  the  year  1861,  he  had,  with  others,  been  wrecked  on  the  island  <^ 
Nukulaelae ;  and,  in  return  for  the  humanity  and  kindness  of  the  natives,  had 
given  them  some  elementary  instruction  in  the  Christian  religion,  and  pro- 
mised to  revisit  them  on  a  future  occasion.  Elekana's  narrative  is  omiti^ 
here,  having  been  already  published  in  detail  in  the  August  and  September 
numbers  of  the  **  Juvenile  Missionary  Magazine*'* 

"  Kukulaelae  lies  to  the  north-west  of  Samoa,  distant  about  600  mOes.  We 
made  the  island  on  Wednesday,  the  16th  of  May,  baving  been  just  a  week  on 
the  passage.  There  is  no  harbour,  but  there  is  a  tolerable  andiorage  outaide 
iihe  reef  during  certain  seasons  of  the 'year.  Having  got  to  anchor,  we  has- 
tened on  shore.  The  poor  people  were  delighted  to  see  us;  but  events  ^^ 
have  transpired  since  Elekana  was  amongst  them,  in  1861,  cast  a  sad  ^oom 
orer  our  meeting.  ,.g.^,^^,  .^ L^OOgLC

OUTBAQES  BY  PBBXTTIAN  8LATEBS. 

''  At  that  time  the  population  was  about  300 — a  harmless,  peaceful  com- 
nmniiy,  waiting  and  longing  for  the  Gh>spel  to  make  them  truly  happy.  Now 
thej  are  reduced  to  a  remnant  under  100 ;  and  the  bulk  of  these  are  women 
and  children.  The  iniquitous  Peruvian  slavers  came  upon  them  like  beasts 
of  prey,  and  carried  off  about  200  to  bondage  and  death.  Nowhere  perhaps 
did  these  infamous  men  act  more  basely  than  at  this  and  the  neighbouring 
island.  They  had  recourse  first  to  what  seems  to  be  their  usual  mode  of 
procedure ;  they  held  out  temporal  inducements,  proposing  to  the  people  to 
go  for  a  given  time  to  some  island  to  make  cocoa-nut  oil,  for  which  they  were 
to  be  liberally  paid,  and  at  the  expiry  of  the  specified  time  brought  back  to 
their  homes.  The  people  told  them  they  had  plenty  of  cocoa-nuts  on  their 
own  land,  and  could  make  oil  here.  Finding  that  they  could  not  gain  their 
point  by  such  proposals,  they  had  recourse  to  an  expedient  worthy  of  the 
devil  himself.  There  were  two  vessels,  both  barques,  the  one  about  300  tons 
burden,  the  other  400  or  500;  their  names  were  the  '  Gouhnourver '  and  the 
'  G^eral  Layfell;'  commanded,  the  one  by  a  Captain  Lopaz,  the  other  by 
Captain  Garsee.  These  gentlemen,  accompanied  by  the  mate  of  one  of  the 
vessels,  came  on  shore,  and  gave  out  that  the  mate  was  a  missionary,  and  that 
thej  wished  the  people  to  go  on  board,  to  be  taken  where  they  would  be 
taught  about  Gk>d  and  religion,  and  afterwards  brought  back  to  their  own 
land.  An  infamous  fellow  named  Tom  Bose,  a  negro  who  had  been  living 
among  the  people  for  a  length  of  time,  lent  himself  to  be  their  tooL  He  acted 
as  interpreter,  and  doubtless  suggested  the  plan  by  which  the  people  were 
ensnared.  And,  as  Tom  himself  shipped  in  one  of  the  vessels,  and  had  been 
acting  as  a  sort  of  religious  teacher  among  the  people,  their  suspicions  would 
be  the  less  likely  to  be  aroused.  The  bait  took.  The  people  flocked  on  board 
the  ships.  Those  who  could  not  obtain  passages  in  the  boats  from  the  vessels 
went  in  canoes,  and  others  swam ;  so  great  was  their  eagerness  to  go  where 
>  th^  were  to  be  taught  about  God.  One  of  the  boats  got  stove  in  the  passage 
and  was  rendered  useless.  Some  who  were  in  it  were  picked  up  by  other 
boats  or  canoes,  and  some  swam  back  to  the  shore.  The  vessels  did  not 
anchor,  but  stood  off  and  on  at  sea;  thus  it  was  difficult  to  reach  them,  and 
when  the  people  were  on  board  they  were  entirely  in  the  power  of  their  d^ptors. 

"Thus  were  these  poor  x)eople  deceived  away  from  their  quiet,  peaceful 
homes.  Alas  for  them !  Surely  He  who  heareth  the  groaning  of  the  prisoner 
and  delivereth  them  who  are  appointed  to  die,  will  plead  their  cause. 

BAYS  OF  LIGHT  IN  THE  MIDST  OF  DABKNES8. 

**  Truly  He  did  not  forsake  them  in  the  hour  of  their  sore  affliction. 
It  is  deeply  interesting  to  think  that  they  carried  with  them  into  their 
bondage  portions  of  the  New  Testament,  which  they  had  obtained  from 
Elekana,  and  which  they  prized  as  their  most  precious  treasures.  Elekana 
had  a  Barotongan  New  Testament  and  hymn-book  when  he  and  his  ship- 
wrecked companions  were  cast  on  their  shores.  So  eager  were  the  people  to 
learn  to  read  the  AYord  of  Qod  that  nothing  would  serve  them  but  the  New 
Testament  must  be  apportioned  out  amongst  them.  Elekana  yielded  to  their 
importunity,  and  gave  two  or  three  leaves  to  each ;  the  portion  ^hat.£^  to  the

*'But  to  return  from  this  long  digression.  The  sight  of  the  widows  aai 
children  of  those  who  were  gone,  whom  we  met  on  shore,  was  yery  aaddgnias- 
As  the  question  was  put  to  one  and  another  by  Elekana,  'Where  is  this  ok 
and  the  other?'  *  Gone,  gone,*  was  the  unyaiying  reply.  'Carried  offly 
the  thieyish  ships.'  After  consulting  with  the  chief  and  others,  and  finSof 
them  earnestly  desirous  to  haye  a  teacher,  I  concluded  to  leaye  wdh  them  (Mt 
of  the  three  I  had  to  dispose  of,  notwithstanding  the  smallness  of  tkff 
number.  Taking  eyeiything  into  account,  it  seemed  as  if  it  would  hatebea 
cruel  to  do  otherwise.  A  deep  interest  will  continue  to  attach  to  Nnkuhdie 
in'  connection  with  the  eyangeUzation  of  the  islands  in  its  neighboariiood. 
and,  indeed,  &.r  beyond,  as  from  it  the  moyement  took  its  rise,  which  will  ^ 
doubt  progress  till  all  are  coyered  with  the  knowledge  of  the  gloiy  of  tbe 
Lord,  as  the  waters  coyer  the  sea.  Nearly  ten  years  haye  passed  awaj  siset 
the  people  of  Nukulaelae,  moyed  by  influences  which  we  can  very  imperfocflj 
trace,  began  to  be  weary  of  paganism  and  to  feel  after  the  true  God.  AM 
that  time,  at  the  instigation  of  the  master  of  a  small  trading-yessel  wbidi 
yisited  the  Islands,  they  burnt  their  gods  and  ceased  to  be  idolaters.  I  Ixf^ 
been  able  to  learn  little  respecting  the  person  who  so  far  directed  them  rigiit. 
except  his  name  and  the  place  whence  he  came.  His  name  was  Stewart,  aid 
he  came  from  Sydney,  vid  F\ji.  All  honour  to  him  for  the  efforts  he  made  it 
this  and  other  islands  to  turn  the  people  from  the  seryice  of  idols  to  that  o^ 
the  Hying  God,  and  Jesus  Christ  whom  He  hath  sent. 

"  From  this  time  the  people  were  in  the  case  of  a  man  who  has  ceased  to 
walk  in  the  wrong  way,  but  who  knows  not  the  right,  and  is  waiting  for* 
guide.  Hence  the  eagerness  with  which  they  welcomed  Elekana  when  he  wii 
cast  upon  their  shores.  Others  had  professed  to  be  able  to  guide  them— ewi 
as  Tom  Rose  the  negro ;  but  they  had  only  added  to  their  bewilderment  b 
Elekana  they  had  a  man  who  knew  the  way  of  life  himself,  and  so  was  able  to 
impart  to  them  a  measure  of  true  light.  And  now[at  length  they  haye  a  teacber 
settled  among  them,  who  will  be  able  to  teach  them  the  way  of  God  more 
perfectly.  It  is  a  yast  adyantage,  in  our  efforts  to  eyangelize  this  and  otlief 
islands  in  its  neighbourhood,  that  the  language  is  so  much  akin  to  th« 
Samoan  that  our  translations  and  books  will  be  ayailable.  The  name  d  the 
teacher  left  on  Nukulaelae  is  Joane  (John),  and  his  wife's  name  is  SaiE  1%<f

labours  be  largely  blessed !

"  Nukulaelae  is  the  largest  of  nine  small  islands  "wbicik  fbnn  the  gnfff  ^ 
which  it  belongs.  Each  island  has  a  separate  name,  but  l^ey  tare  all  eaido«d

bamer  that  stmroundB  them.  The  shape  is  ofolong,  being  about  frar  and  a 
lialf  miles  in  length  and  two  and  a  half  in  breadth ;  the  people  liveat  present 
on  a  smaJl  island  named  Matotala.  The  islands  are  very  low.  They  are 
geaoLevalky  ooYered  with  ooooa-nnt  trees,  and  look  like  cocoa-nut  groves  &oni 
the  sea.  In  addition  to  these,  the  pandanos  abounds,  and  ihe  coast  is  covered 
with  mangroyes.  They  produce  a  little  taro  and  bananas  ;  but  a  species  of 
coarse  taro,  called  pulaka,  together  with  cocoa^uts  and  fish,  form  the  staple 
of  the  food  of  the  nativeft.  Of  the  origin  of  the  people,  and  other  interesting 
zoatters,  we  shall  ha^e  to  speak  when  we  come  to  other  islands  of  the  rang^  ta 
which  Nukulaelae  belongs.  These  islands  are  a  range,  not  a  group ;  so  we 
must  get  reconciled  to  that  nnfamiliar  designation.  They  lie  in  a  line  running 
north-west,  and  extending  over  a  space  of  300  to  400  miles.  The  people 
of  Nukulaelae  say  their  ancestors  came  from  Funafuti,  the  island  to  which 
our  course  was  next  directed.  Nukulaelae  lies  in  long.  179S  50^,  and  lat. 
9^  18'  south. 

"We  sailed  from  Nukulaelae  on  Friday,  the  12th  of  May,  and  on  the 
following  day  anchored  at 

FTTNAPim. 

"Funafuti  is  the  EUice's  Group  of  the  charts.  It  is  about  sixty  miles 
distant  from  Nukulaelae.  Like  its  neighbour,  it  is  not  a  single  island,  but  a 
group,  numbering  no  fewer  than  thirty-one  islands  and  islets.  Each  of 
these  has  a  separate  name,  and  Funafuti  is  the  general  name.  An  immense 
'  coral  reef  surrounds  the  whole,  and  the  interior  forms  a  magnificent  lagoon 
and  one  of  the  finest  harbours  I  have  seen.  There  are  three  good  openings, 
at  which  vessels  of  any  tonnage  may  enter,  and  hundreds  of  vessels  might 
anchor  together  in  safety.  "We  found  the  state  of  things  here  in  many  respects 
similar  to  that  of  Nukulaelae,  both  as  regards  what  is  pleasing  and  painful. 
The  slavers,  on  leaving  Nukulaelae,  came  on  here,  and,  sad  to  say,  succeeded 
in  carrying  off  one  hundred  and  eighty  of  the  people.  Aided  by  Tom  Rose,  they 
adopted  the  same  plans  here  as  at  the  other  island.  Oil-making  was  first 
mentioned,  then  gold-digging ;  but  these  not  taking,  the  other  pretext  was 
tried,  and  succeeded.  '  There,'  said  their  betrayei's — *  there  are  the  people  of 
Kukulaelae  onboard,  going  to  learn  about  God;  why  should  not  you  also 
-go  P'  They  did  go ;  and,  b\it  for  the  exertions  of  a  foreigner  residing  on  riiore, 
there  would  not  have  been  so  many  left  as  there  are.  ^ose  that  remain 
iramber  about  100,  in  addition  to  whom  there  are  at  present  between  twenty 
and  thirty  persons  belonging  to  Taitupu,  another  island  of  this  range.  The 
population  of  this  and  several  other  islands  adjacent  has  been  kept  smaU  by 
a  shocking  practice  to  which  they  were  addicted  in  the  days  of  heathenism. 
We  anchored  late  in  the  evening  of  Saturday.  On  the  following  morning  we 
went  on  shore  and  saw  the  chief  and  people,  and  had  service  with  them, 
.JSlekana  giving  an  address  from  Luke  xix.  10.  I  got  him  to  give  the  address 
as  he  retained  a  considerable  knowledge  of  their  dialect.  The  first  words  of 
the  chief  when  we  called  upon  him  were  striking  and  affecting.  '  We  are  all 
in  darkness,'  he  said, '  and  are  just  waiting  for  some  one  to  teach  us.'  I 
,told  him  that  that  was  just  our  errand,  to  give  him  some  one  to  teach  him 
and  his  people ;  that  we  had  heard  of  their  desire  for  the  Word  of  God,  and 
had  come  from  Samoa  in  consequence.    Th^y  destroved  theiridok^f^bout  the

same  time  as  the  people  of  Nnkulaelae.  They  heard  of  the  domgs  of  Elekm 
there,  and  he  spent  a  short  time  among  them,  after  he  left  that  island  to  p 
to  Samoa.  Thus  they  were  in  very  much  the  same  state  as  their  neighboon. 
On  the  following  day  (Monday),  the  needful  preliminary  arrangements  having 
been  made,  Matatia,  one  of  our  teachers,  and  his  wife,  Nazareta,  took  up  ihsz 
abode  on  Funafuti.  At  once  the  people  set  to  work  to  learn  to  read,  and 
during  the  two  days  we  remained  after  the  teacher  was  landed  some  seventeei 
had  mastered  the  alphabet ;  and  a  fortnight  after,  when  we  called  again  oai 
our  return  from  other  islands,  between  twenty  and  thirty  were  able  to  read 
a  little.  I  never  saw  a  people  in  similar  circumstances  apply  themsdra 
with  such  eagerness.    Qod  grant  that  with  the  light  they  may  receive  ^e  fife. 

PBBVAIUNG  CUSTOMS. 

"  I  need  not  remark  particularly  on  the  appearance,  manners,  customs, 
&c.,  of  the  natives,  seeing  that  they  are  Samoans,  and  that  in  all  essentia] 
respects  they  are  one  with  the  people  from  whom  they  are  descended.  Long 
separation  from  their  £Eitherland  has  led  to  some  slight  diversity  in  language, 
manners,  dress,  and  some  other  things.  Circumstances  have  led  to  a  different 
mode  of  dress — ^the  material  employed  in  Samoa  not  being  found  on  these 
islands.  The  men  wear  the  maro ;  the  women  wear  a  large  bushy  girdle  of 
the  pandanus  and  cocoa-nut  lea^  which  looks  very  decent.  The  houses  are 
good — ^built  after  the  Samoan  model,  as  far  as  the  different  circumstances  will 
allow.  They  are  thatched  with  the  pandanus  lea^  which  is  much  superior  to 
the  leaf  of  the  sugar-cane,  which  is  used  in  Samoa.  The  settlements  look 
veiy  clean  and  neat.  I  was  especially  struck  with  the  appearance  of  the 
graves,  which  are  evidently  tended  with  great  care.  They  were  accustomed 
to  worship  their  deceased  ancestors,  along  with  superior  deities,  which  pro- 
bably was  one  reason  why  so  much  attention  was  paid  to  the  gravaB. 
Throughout  the  whole  islands  we  have  visited,  Tangaloo  was  regarded  as 
the  principal  god — the  god  of  heaven;  and  all  had  an  idea  of  a  future  state, 
a  '  good  place'  and  a  '  bad  place,'  to  which  the  good  and  bad  respectivelj 
went  at  death.  There  has  been  no  war  in  Funafuti  from  the  time  of  its  being 
occupied,  so  far  as  the  present  generation  knows— that  is,  among  the  people 
themselves;  for  they  have  had  to  defend  themselves  more  than  onoe  frum 
Tongan  aggression ;  and  that  they  seem  to  have  done  bravely.  The  Tongans 
appear  to  have  swarmed  over  these  seas  in  former  times  almost  like  Danidi 
pirates.  But,  from  the  accounts  of  the  people  of  Funafuti,  they  met  with 
their  match  in  them.  Funafuti  lies  in  long.  179°  W.,  and  lat,  8°  30'S,  We 
saUed  on  Thursday,  May  the  18th,  and  stood  for 

NTJKITPKTAU. 

"  We  reached  this  island  on  the  following  day  after  leaving  Funafuti*  May 
19th.  The  distance  between  the  islands  is  about  sixty  miles.  It  will  be 
remembered  that  all  these  islands  lie  in  the  same  direction,  north-west  and 
south-east.  Yaitupu  indeed  is  to  some  extent  an  exception :  it  lies  north-east 
from  Nukufetau  forty-two  miles.  Nukufetau,  like  Funafuti,  is  not  the  name 
of  a  single  island,  but  of  a  group  of  small  islands.  These  are  fifteen  in 
number,  and,  with  the  reef  and  lagoon,  cover  a  space  of  ten  miles  in  drcnm- 
ference.    It,  like  all  the  islands  of  the  range  to  which  it  belongs,  is  low,  and

^cannot  be  seen  more  than  ten  miles  off  in  clear  weather.  The  lagoon  forms 
a  good  and  spacious  harbour,  easily  accessible  to  vessels  of  any  size.  We 
ibnnd  the  state  of  things  at  this  island  similar  in  many  respects  to  that  of 
^Funafuti  and  Nukulaelae :  there  is  one  important  and  happy  difference, — the 
slavers  were  in  a  great  measure  baffled  in  their  attempts  to  carry  off  the  people. 
"  Several  canoes  came  off  to  us  as  we  were  making  our  way  up  the  lagoon 
towards  the  anchorage.  In  one  of  these  was  the  son  of  the  chief  of  the  island, 
-a  very  interesting  young  man,  named  Tauk  ie.  Taukie  has  had  a  great  deal 
of  intercourse  with  foreigners,  and  understands  and  talks  English  amazingly 
'well.  When  he  learned  that  a  missionary  and  teachers  were  on  board,  his 
-eyes  sparkled  with  joy.  He  told  us  he  had  determined  to  go  to  the  Fyis  when 
^in  opportunity  should  offer,  with  a  view  to  get  a  teacher  if  we  had  not  come. 
Thus  we  found  here,  as  elsewhere,  an  open  door,  and  had  nothing  to  do  but 
enter  in.  The  movement  which  has  led  to  the  present  state  of  things  on 
jtJbis  island  is  connected  with  the  occurrences  at  Nukulaelae  and  Funafuti 
already  mentioned.  They  heard  what  had  been  done  on  these  islands,  and, 
following  their  example,  destroyed  their  gods  and  renounced  idolatry ;  and 
"far  years  they  have  been  observing  the  Sabbath  and  keeping  up  some  sort  of 
public  worship  on  that  day.  They  have  a  chapel,  a  very  decent  place,  about 
forty-five  feet  long  by  forty  broad,  which  is  kept  neat  and  clean.  Poor  people ! 
thus  have  they  gone  on  year  after  year,  worshipping  God  accordingto  their  little 
light,  and  waiting  and  longing  for  some  reliable  guide. 

THE  BIGHT  MAN  IN  THE  RIGHT  PLACE. 

^  Apprehending  that  there  would  be  greater  difficulties  to  contend  with 
liere  than  at  the  other  islands,  I  had  reserved  Elekana,  who  is  a  man  of 
more  experience  than  the  other  teachers  of  our  party,  and  whose  name  is 
widely  known  and  respected,  for  this  island.  The  chief  and  people  gave  him 
an  encouraging  welcome ;  and  he  has  entered  upon  his  work  with  pleasing 
prospects.  The  population  is  about  300.  Infanticide  has  been  discontinued 
for  a  number  of  years,  and  peace  has  long  prevailed.  And  now  we  may  hope 
that  polygamy,  heathen  dances,  and  other  kindred  evils,  wiU  speedily  be  num- 
bered with  the  things  that  have  passed  away,  and  that  in  Nukufetau  we  shall 
have  a  happy  Christian  community,  bringing  forth  the  fruits  of  righteousness, 
and  glorifying  God  their  Saviour  in  all  things.  We  sailed  from  Nukufetau 
on  Wednesday,  the  24th  of  May,  and  stood  for  the  neighbouring  island 

VAITUPU. 

"  We  had  quite  an  exciting  scene  as  we  were  leaving  Nukufetau.  We  found 
there  twenty-six  natives  of  Yaitupu.  These  made  an  arrangement  with  the 
-captain  to  be  taken  to  their  own  land.  They  had  been  living  for  a  length  of 
time,  two  or  three  years,  on  Nukufetau,  and  had,  no  doubt,  relations  on  the 
island,  between  whom  and  themselves  strong  attachments  seemed  to  exist ; 
and  when  the  parting  came  there  was  such  an  excitement,  rubbing  of  noses, 
and  weeping  and  wailing  in  regular  Oriental  fashion.  Here  I  had  to  part  with 
my  good,  faithful  friend  Elekana.  This  I  felt  quite  a  trial.  He  is  a  man  to 
whom  one  soon  feels  a  strong  attachment.  It  was  especially  painful  to  leave 
Jiim  alone  among  the  comparatively  rough  people  of  Nukufetau.    He,  however.

was  not  fainthearted ;  and  the  Master  whom  he  B&rrea  will  not  forrake  hi& 
May  hiB  life  be  long  spared  and  his  labotm  largely  blessed. 

"  We  reached  Yaitupn  on  Thursday,  the  25tii,  the  day  after  we  left  Foki- 
fetan.  It  is  a  charming  little  spot,  a  single  island  with  a  lagoon  in  the  oestm 
«bout  fonr  miles  in  length  and  three  in  breadth.  It  has  a  poptilati<Hi  of  abott 
350.  It  is  comparatively  well  watered  and  very  fertile.  And  now  we  liad 
got  to  the  central  point  where  the  Samoans  landed,  from  whom  all  the  isikak 
of  the  range,  with  a  single  exception,  have  been  i>eopled.  Here  I  obtaizui 
distinctly  and  definitely  the  information  I  had  been  nnable  to  get  elBewhere. 
I  got  the  names  of  seventeen  ehiefs  who  have  successively  mled  the  islaal 
since  their  ancestors  arrived.  The  arrival  I  should  think  must  have  been  it 
least  300  years  ago.  There  were  two  large  double  canoes.  I  got  the  naas 
of  twenty-one  men  and  five  women  who  were  in  theee  eaaoes.  Hiere  w«r 
many  more  women,  but  their  names  ore  forgotten.  Hiere  were  also  two  chil- 
dren. The  people  don't  know  wheUier  any  died  at  sea,  where  the  parlj  wai 
bound  when  they  started  from  Samoa,  what  part  of  Samoa  thej  eaaie  frovu 
and  other  matters  of  interest  which  one  would  like  to  know.  They  oontinurf 
for  a  length  of  time  on  Yaitupu,  and  as  they  increased  in  numbers  iiiefy  luf<ei 
off  to  the  other  islands,  till  they  thread  over  t^em  all,  eight  in  number.  I 
found  the  language  somewhat  purer  here  than  on  the  other  islands  we  had 
visited;  and  here  we  found  an  Ifi  tree,  the  horse-chestnut,  most  probably  spirnsf 
from  a  nut  brought  from  Samoa  by  the  original  party.  The  prodnctioiis  of 
the  islands  are  the  same  as  those  of  the  islands  already  described.  I  felt 
deeply  grieved  that  I  had  not  a  teacher  to  leave  amongst  them.  I  could  only 
give  them  a  promise  that  they  should  have  one  with  l^e  least  possible  dday. 
The  population  is  larger  than  that  of  any  of  the  other  islands  to  the  east,  fi 
is  over  350,  and  we  found  about  twenty  of  their  people  on  the  adjacent  idni 
of  Nui,  to  which  our  course  was  next  directed.  Yaitupu  is  a  delightful  httie 
station  for  a  Samoan  or  Barotongan  pastor.  Yery  soon  I  trust  the  eyes  of  the 
people  will  see  their  teacher,  and  effectually  learn  about  Him  the  knowM^ 
of  whom  they  have  so  long  desired.  Leaving  Yaitupu,  we  stood  for  the  ialsBd  of 

distant  about  ninety  miles.  We  got  sufficiently  near  on  the  evening  of  fte 
25th  of  May  to  have  intercourse  with  the  people.  The  first  word  uttered  hy 
an  interesting  young  man,  who  speaks  good  English,  as  he  jumped  on  deck. 
was,  '  Is  this  the  ship  with  the  missionaries  P'  Some  parties  had  led  them  to 
expect  that  missionaries  would  come  to  them  shortly.  It  was  near  sundown, 
and,  as  there  is  no  anchorage,  we  had  to  stand  cff  for  the  night,  and  oar 
visitors  returned  to  the  shore  with  the  glad  tidings.  Early  next  moisia^ 
canoes  were  again  off  to  us,  in  one  of  which  was  the  young  man  alloded  ti> 
above.  He  brought  a  present  from  the  chief  of  three  ducks,  a  basket  of  iago, 
and  a  dozen  cocoa-nuts,  and  a  request  that  I  would  go  on  shore,  as  the  cAmC 
wished  to  see  me.  To  go  on  shore  at  Nui  is  rather  a  formidable  sffinr,  at, 
like  Yaitupu,  it  is  surrounded  by  an  extensive  reef,  through  vrhick  there  is  no 
opening.  It  is  very  difficult  to  land  with  a  boat,  but  the  natives  manage  it  is 
their  canoes.  In  one  of  these  I  got  safely  to  the  land,  and  had  a  deefdj 
interesting  interview  with  the  chief  and  people.  ^'^4  ^itate  of  things  is  Mtj

as  interestiiig  and  remarkable  as  at  any  of  the  other  islands.    About  five 
^rears  ago  they  burnt  their  gods,  and  since  then  they  have  been  worshippers 
of  the  tme  God,  and  have  been  waiting  most  earnestly  to  be  fully  instructed 
in  the  knowledge  of  Him.    Their  present  home  is  a  pretty  little  spot — a  gem 
on  the  ocean*s  breast.    It  consists  of  two  larger  and  sic  smaller  islands,  and 
is  about  five  miles  in  length,  and  firom  a  mile  to  half  a  mile  in  breadth.    It 
is  very  fertile,  and  tolerably  wdl  watered.    The  population  is  from  300  to  400; 
^bey  are  a  fine  noble-looking  race ;  and  they  must  be  very  industrious,  if 
-wiiat  we  wei*e  told  by  a  person  trading  among  them  is  c<HTect.    According  to 
liim,  they  make  about  sixty  tons  of  cocoa-nut  oil  a  year  for  sale.    In  appear- 
ance, manners,  customs,  &c.,  they  very  much  resemble  their  neighbours.    It 
-was  very  painful  to  have  no  teacher  to  leave  among  them.   The  men  who  now 
conduct  services  are  well  reported  of,  and  seem  decent  characters.    As  the 
l>est  thing  that  could  be  done  under  the  circumstances,  I  told  them  to 
continue  carrying  on  worship  and  schools  in  the  meanwhile  as  they  are  now 
^oing,  and  promised  that  they  should  have  a  teacher  as  soon  as  practicable. 
TThcy  have  a  very  good  place  of  worship,  and  a  school-house  in  addition. 
TThe  chief  Kanie  is  a  very  interestii^  man.    After  I  returned  on  board  he 
sent,  or  rather  brought,  for  he  came  off  himself,  another  present  of  taro,  Ao. 
As  some  are  reading  ike  Word  of  GU)d  in  their  own  tongue,  we  may  hofe 
that  a  good  work,  in  some  cases  a  saving  work,  is  really  in  progress  among 
them.    God  grant  that  it  may  be  so,  and  carry  it  on  with  greater  and  greater 
power,  and  more  and  more  decisive  results,  till  the  little  leaven  now  working 
leaven  the  whole  lump. 

"  Kui  was  the  limit  of  our  cruise ;  so,  having  finished  our  business,  we  com- 
menced our  return  voyage,  calling  at  Funafuti  and  Nukulaelae,  and  thienoe 
directing  our  course  towards  Samoa. 

CONCLUDING  BEMABKS. 

**  A  few  general  observations  will  i^propriately  close  this  report,  most  of 
which  will  probably  have  occurred  with  more  or  less  distinctness  to  the  reader. 
The  first  thing  calling  fen*  special  notice  is  the  remarhaUe  sUUe  of  preparedness 
in  which  fee  found  all  the  idande  v)e  have  visited  for  the  reception  of  the  Gospel. 
Asd  I  have  he&a,  assured  that  the  three  islands  Kiutao,  Nanomea,  and  Nano- 
xnaga,  which  we  have  not  visited,  are  in  a  very  similar  state  to  that  of  the 
others,  having,  like  them,  renounced  heathenism,  and  being  earnestly  demnms 
to  have  teachers.  These,  with  the  iriands  visited,  eight  in  all,  stretching  over 
a  ^ace  of  from  300  to  400  miles,  and  containing  a  populatkm  of  about  3500 
<Mr  upwards,  have  all  renounced  paganinn.  Every  vestige  of  idolatry  is  sw^ 
away ;  the  idols  are  utterly  abolished,  asid  they  are  thirsting  for  something 
better  than  idolatry  can  supply.  What  an  affecting  illustration  do  the  cases 
<^  l^ukulaelae  and  Funafuti  supply  of  the  eagerness  of  their  desire  to  be  sup- 
plied with  the  word  of  life,  and  how  painful  is  it  to  think  that  that  very  desire 
beoame  the  occasion  of  their  being  ensnared  and  belayed  by  the  slavers. 
What  a  mercy  it  is  that  they  still  retain  their  desire !  It  would  not  have 
been  surprising  if  the  remnant  had  reasoned  thus :  If  that  is  what  comes 
from  desiring  the  knowledge  of  God,  we  had  better  be  without  such 
'desire.    But  no  such  pervewe  mode  of  reasoning  has^t^n^  adopted.    Now 


344  MISSIONARY  HAGAZINS 

'we  have  only  to  call  to  mind  the  extreme  tenacity  with  whidi  idokes 
generally  cling  to  their  objects  of  worship,  and  to  think  of  the  history  d 
Missions,  to  see  that  the  state  of  things  just  described  is  yery  remarkaUe. 
^  far  as  I  know,  it  has  few  recorded  parallels.  The  case  of  the  Sandwkk 
Islands  comes  nearest  to  it  of  anything  with  which  I  am  acquaintecL  hi 
inrther,  the  manner  in  which  the  change  in  question  has  been  effected  i 
equally  remarkable  with  the  change  itself — ^indeed  that  mainly  oonstitotei 
its  remarkableness ;  for  when  an  adequate,  or  what  seems  to  us  an  adeqntf^ 
instrumentality  is  brought  to  bear  upon  a  heathen  people,  we  eq^ect  sofib 
results  to  follow.  But  here  we  have  what  usually  requires  years  of  self-denyiBg 
toil,  and  not  seldom  the  sacrifice  of  valuable  lives  to  accomplish,  done  to  on 
hand.  No  weary  night  of  toil  has  preceded,  and  yet,  lo !  the  day  has  dawned,  tlie 
night  of  heathenism  is  past,  and  the  rays  of  the  Sun  of  Righteousness  appear 
— ^precursors  of  a  glorious  day.  We  have  already  adverted  to  the  <alj 
instrumentality  we  can  trace,  that  of  Captain  Stewart.  A  change  in  the 
views  and  feelings  of  the  people,  however,  must  surely  have  preceded  his  nstr 
though  we  are  unable  to  trace  it.  The  work  of  destroying  objects  of  idal*- 
trous  worship,  once  commenced,  spread  like  a  conflagration,  and  their  old 
religion  being  abandoned,  and  a  rdigion  of  some  sort  being  a  necessity  of 
human  nature,  they  cast  about  to  find  a  new  one.  Hence  their  readiness  to 
take  up  with  any  adventurer  who  professed  to  be  able  to  supply  the  article 
needed.  The  demand  brought  the  supply:  in  every  island  some  one  appeii«d 
and  set  up  as  a  religious  teacher.  Men  of  all  characters,  colours,  lands,  hare 
practised  upon  the  poor  people  in  that  line.  Some — ^though  I  can  hear  « 
none  whose  characters  have  been  anything  near  the  mark — ^have  been  of  Qs& 
Others,  again,  such  as  Tom  Eose,  have  acted  a  most  infamous  part,  and  cii 
only  be  numbered  among  the  unscrupulous  agents  of  the  Evil  One. 

"  Another  thing  worthy  of  special  remark  is  the  way  in  which  irformaUn 
respecting  the  state  of  the  people  was  conveyed  to  us  in  Samoa,  and  the  strici^ 
<:all  thereby  addressed  to  us  to  undertake  the  cultivaticm  of  the  field.  In  tais 
the  finger  of  God  seems  especially  marked.  The  traders  visiting  the  island 
have  been  acquainted  with  the  state  of  things  for  years  past,  but  thej  hare 
not,  so  far  as  I  am  aware,  made  that  known  to  any  body  of  Christiana.  ^DkJ 
have  acted  as  if  it  were  their  wish  that  the  people  should  continue  in  daibietf- 
But  Gk)d's  purposes  are  not  to  be  defeated.  In  His  own  time  he  found  » 
witness  and  a  messenger.  Elekana's  arrival  in  Samoa,  with  his  rema^abk 
tale,  was  like  a  Macedonian  cry.  It  was  effectual,  as  our  present  voyage  erincci 

"Again,  the  quarter  whence  God  is  causing  the  light  of  life  to  skinefirts 
upon  these  islands  is  worthy  of  notice.  Samoa,  as  we  have  seen,  is  the 
fatherland.  Hence  there  is  a  common  language,  not  to  mention  minor  ad- 
vantages.  The  Gk>spel  can  be  intelligibly  preached  at  once,  while  oar  ho(*8 
and  translations  are  ready  to  put  into  their  hands.  An  immense  advantage 
this,  which  it  would  not  be  easy  to  over-estimate. 

"  And  the  time  at  which  the  call  comes  is  also  remarkable.  Our  weatvaiu 
Missions  are  now,  to  a  great  extent,  off  our  hands,  and  our  brethroi  in  the 
Hervey  Islands,  as  also  Mr.  Lawes  of  Nine,  and  ourselves  are  feeling  the  need 
of  an  ouUet  for  the  missionary  zeal  of  our  churches ;  and  here  oar  Masta" 
says  to  us  in  Hig  providence,  *  Behold,  I  set  before  you  an  open  door;*  and 


FOR  BECEMBERy   1865.  345 

-this  just  as  we  have  heard  tliat  a  new  mission  ship  is  being  procured  to  pnt  it 
in  our  power  to  yield  obedience  to  this  call. 

'*  Liet  it  be  borne  in  mind,  further,  that  the  field  to  which  these  remarks 
refer  has  an  importance  much  greater  than  at  first  sight  appears.  Espe- 
ciallj  does  this  remark  apply  to  the  island  of  Nui.  That  island,  from  its 
oonnection  with  the  Kingsmill  Group,  has  great  relative  impoitance.  The 
Kingsmill  group  consists  of  from  fifteen  to  twenty  islands,  some  of  them 
large,  and  containing  a  population,  according  to  Captain  Wilkes,  of  60,000 
souls.  Fart  of  the  islands — about  half>-lie  to  the  south  of  the  equator,  the 
other  to  the  north.  Our  American  brethren,  who  have  their  head-quarters  at 
the  Sandwich  Islands,  have  undertaken  the  evangelization  of  the  northern 
division.  The  other  is  lefk  for  us ;  and  the  occupation  of  this  little  island  of 
'Nxd  will  be  a  direct  step  towards  the  cultivation  of  these  lai*ger  fields. 
Drummond's  Island,  from  which  the  principal  part  of  their  ancestors  came, 
is  large,  and,  according  to  Wilkes,  has  a  population  of  10,000.  It  lies  to  the 
south  of  the  line.  On  the  whole,  may  we  not  assuredly  gather  that  God  is 
calling  us  to  give  the  Gospel  with  the  least  possible  delay  to  these  tribes  ?• 
and,  being  so  obviously  called  by  Htm,  ought  we  not  to  go  forth  strong  in 
fedth  and  high  in  hope  that  He  will  crown  our  efforts  with  large  success,  and 
that  these  poor  benighted  islanders,  so  long  the  slaves  of  sin  and  Satan,  and 
the  dupes  of  designing  and  vicious  men,  shall,  in  due  time,  become  the 
children  of  God  by  fidth  in  Christ  Jesus,  washed  in  His  blood,  cleansed  by 
TTis  Spirit,  and  fitted  for  His  holy  habitation  on  high  P  May  we  exceed  all 
our  hopes,  and  to  Him  shall  be  glory.
